II ROLL CALL Members Present: Mike Lemon, Ted Puckett, Jim Hulett, Donna Davison, Dick Wight, Jerry Glass. Members Absent: Gary Cissel. Staff Present: Paul D. Carr, Jeff Abram. III APPROVAL OF MINUTES Mr. Lemon moved to approve the minutes of the January 28, 1987, meeting as submitted. Mr. Puckett seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. IV PUBLIC HEARINGS SHORELINE MANAGEMENT HEARING - CROWN Z: Reque s t to construct a bulk storage silo tank at the existing Mill site on Marine Drive at Ediz Hook. Location: Marine Drive. Mr. Carr reviewed the Department Report. Chairman Glass opened the public hearing. Bruce Beane of Crown Zellerbach explained that presently the clay is stored in bags on palletts throughout the Mill. The proposed tank will be constructed of steel. The clay will be trucked in and then blown into the tank which has filters to catch dust from the operation. Julie Gillespie, a resident of the area, asked about the life of the tank and the effectiveness of the filters. Mr. Bean explained that the tank would last 50 to 100 years, and possibly longer. They will be using one and one-half times the recommended amount of filtering material. Chairman Glass closed the public hearing. Mr. Wight moved to recommend approval of the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit, citing the following finding: PLANNING COMMISSION February 11, 1987 Page 2 . 1. The proposed development is an upgrade of an existing activity on the Crown Zellerbach Mill facility. Accordingly, the permit complies with General Regulation C.1 and C.4. Ms. Davison seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. STREET VACATION HEARING - MERRILL & RING, INC.: Request for vacation of a portion of "F" Street abutting Lot 1, Block 119, and Lot 7, Block 115, TPA, lying north of the 4/5 alley. Location: "F" Street north of the 4/5 alley. Mr. Carr reviewed the Department Report. Chairman Glass opened the public hearing. . Dick Stroble of M & R Timber, Inc., explained that they own a wedge-shaped piece of property (Sampson Land Donation) which truncates the "F" Street right-of-way south of the bluff. They intend to subdivide the property to create view lots and vacation would result in better shaped lots. He anticipated four lots approximately 57 feet in width and one larger lot to the west of "F" Street that could possibly be sold in portions to the abutting property owners. Mr. Steele, co-petitioner, explained that the right-of-way would not serve as a good street-end view park because it does not extend all the way to the bluff. Mr. Stroble noted that a house could be build directly north of the "P" Street right- of-way on their property. Staff noted that there were ten street-ends on the top of the bluff between the Truck Route and Crown Park to the west. This is the only one that has private property between it and the top of the bluff. The Corrunission discussed the importance of retaining all rights-of-way on the bluffs for street-end view parks versus the utility of this specific right-of-way, since there was private property to the north. Following considerable discussion, Chairman Glass closed the public hearing. Mr. Lemon moved to recorrunend approval of the street vacation, citing the following findings: 1. The vacation will not affect traffic patterns, public safety, or utility services in the area because of the topography. . 2. Vacation would facilitate development and increase the tax base of the community. . . . PLANNING COMMISSION F~bruary 11, 1987 Page 3 3. Because there is private property to the north of the right-of-way that could be developed and thereby block the view of the Harbor, this section of right-of-way has limited value as a potential view park and is better developed as residential use. Mr. Hulett seconded the motion, which passed 5 - 1, with Ms. Davison voting "No" because the right-of-way still has potential as a recreational view site and should be retained in the public interest for that reason. STREET VACATION REQUEST - PRIEST: Request for vacation of a portion of the right-of-way north of Highway 101 on First Street east of Alder Street, TPA. Location: First Street east of Alder Street. Mr. Carr reviewed the Department Report, noting that this was a bookkeeping measure between the City, State and the applicants to quiet title to property which the applicants had already purchased from the State. Chairman Glass opened the public hearing. There was no one present to comment, so the public hearing was closed. Mr. Lemon moved to recommend vacation of the subject right- of-way because it will clear title to property that has already been considered privately owned. Mr. Hulett seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. V COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE PUBLIC None. VI STAFF REPORTS Mr. Carr requested a special meeting on February 18, 1987, to continue processing of current applications. The Commission concurred. The February 25th long-range Planning meeting would be a joint meeting with the City Council to discuss the Harbor Plan. VII REPORTS FROM COMMISSIONERS Mr. Lemon noted that the beauty salon Home Occupation that was denied should be reviewed for compliance. Staff would investigate. . . .
