1
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:21,300
This is the City of Reno Planning Commission meeting, dated Wednesday, January 7th, 2026, at 6 p.m., we will start with the Pledge of Allegiance Commissioner going to continue.

2
00:00:27,950 --> 00:00:35,250
To the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, liberty and justice are all.

3
00:00:35,250 --> 00:00:39,060
A two roll call, Madam Clerk.

4
00:00:43,170 --> 00:00:44,250
David Jockeman.

5
00:00:44,650 --> 00:00:44,810
Here.

6
00:00:45,310 --> 00:00:45,970
Jacob Williams.

7
00:00:46,290 --> 00:00:46,410
Here.

8
00:00:46,890 --> 00:00:47,470
Mani Bacera.

9
00:00:48,470 --> 00:00:48,690
President.

10
00:00:49,130 --> 00:00:49,970
Christina Delvier.

11
00:00:50,470 --> 00:00:51,030
President.

12
00:00:51,470 --> 00:00:52,370
Tina Gompion, Tina.

13
00:00:52,710 --> 00:00:52,830
Here.

14
00:00:53,170 --> 00:00:53,890
Carrie Romyer.

15
00:00:54,590 --> 00:00:54,710
Here.

16
00:00:55,190 --> 00:00:55,730
Alex Belto.

17
00:00:56,910 --> 00:00:57,670
Afton at this time.

18
00:00:58,070 --> 00:01:00,110
We have a quorum of the Reno City Planning Commission.

19
00:01:01,330 --> 00:01:03,890
I had a May 3 public comment, Madam Clerk.

20
00:01:05,750 --> 00:01:07,270
It should be noted for those in the audience

21
00:01:07,270 --> 00:01:09,910
Comments are to be addressed to the Planning Commission as a whole.

22
00:01:10,490 --> 00:01:13,790
Comments heard under this item will be limited to three minutes per person and may pertain

23
00:01:13,790 --> 00:01:16,170
to matters both on and off the Planning Commission agenda.

24
00:01:16,910 --> 00:01:21,090
Please note that the Planning Commission may not take action upon any matter, not agendas

25
00:01:21,090 --> 00:01:23,150
for possible action on today's agenda.

26
00:01:23,690 --> 00:01:26,890
When you are called on for public comment, please state your name for the record and begin

27
00:01:26,890 --> 00:01:27,270
speaking.

28
00:01:27,730 --> 00:01:30,490
The timer will begin when you say your name and you will be afforded three minutes.

29
00:01:30,990 --> 00:01:33,830
If you are in attendee in the Zoom meeting and would like to make public comment at this

30
00:01:33,830 --> 00:01:35,290
time, please raise your hand.

31
00:01:35,770 --> 00:01:37,770
Lastly, while in this room, please be respectful.

32
00:01:38,130 --> 00:01:43,910
Warnings will be issued by the presiding officer if there's disruptive behavior and you'll be asked to leave chambers if the behavior continues.

33
00:01:44,370 --> 00:01:46,830
Our first public comment of the night is from Kevin Kaiser.

34
00:01:49,820 --> 00:01:52,060
Kevin please state your name for the record and you'll have three minutes.

35
00:02:11,850 --> 00:02:13,170
So I have handouts, if you'd like.

36
00:02:13,350 --> 00:02:23,670
My name is Kevin Kaiser, I am a resident over off West Plum Lane, number 2160 Carter Drive just off West Plum Lane.

37
00:02:23,670 --> 00:02:33,210
It is part of the Rivermont project in District 2 and I would like to make comment on just the recent community meetings that we've had.

38
00:02:34,050 --> 00:02:36,870
And I have these handouts for you as well if you'd like to review.

39
00:02:38,110 --> 00:02:48,150
In the last presentation, let me back up, like I said, I moved here on my house for 20 plus years and shortly after that.

40
00:02:48,150 --> 00:02:59,110
That same project site was set forth to include properties on the hill for sewer development back in early 2000.

41
00:02:59,950 --> 00:03:12,890
It was ultimately shut down because the city tried to apply a single fee to all because many needed pumping stations and modifications since it was, it was unfairly funded and many were overcharged.

42
00:03:13,670 --> 00:03:15,790
But here we are again today.

43
00:03:15,790 --> 00:03:22,090
A connection fee is established by a city ordinance of $12,745.

44
00:03:23,170 --> 00:03:27,550
Abatement fee comes to $15,000 to $30,000 per individual.

45
00:03:28,190 --> 00:03:33,670
The city is looking for each resident to pay $41,000 to $56,000.

46
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,980
Hence I bring you to this attachment that I brought up.

47
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,800
As you will see as presented and proposed by fairness and equity,

48
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:51,520
total cost is granted minus the NDPE grant is equal to final cost divided

49
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,920
per household. So they're asking for $12,427 per household.

50
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,320
Grand is equally

51
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,860
distributed across both parties. What they did not tell us during the meetings

52
00:04:04,860 --> 00:04:13,760
is they would not tell us the number of residents, they did tell us a number of

53
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:23,120
in Phase 2. P1, Phase 1, has 38% of the parcels and requires 36% of the costs. Costs of the

54
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:31,880
funding for that portion is $1,584,000. Equally applied, minus the grant fund and DEP,

55
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:43,740
P1 residents would pay $10,122 by math. P1 residents are actually paying 8 plus 18.5%

56
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:59,120
P2 has 62% of parcels and 64% of funding, $2.816 million, equally to apply minus NDPP,

57
00:04:59,220 --> 00:05:09,280
it would pay $13,846. P2 residents are actually paying minus 11.4%. P1 is proportionally,

58
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:14,200
This proportionally funding, P2, even after the grant funding is equally applied.

59
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:20,480
These numbers have been validated by Katie, Kerry, Kully, Naomi, and are not denied.

60
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:21,960
This is not fair in equity.

61
00:05:24,980 --> 00:05:27,660
Madam Clerk, do we have any other requests for public comment?

62
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,120
I do not have any other requests.

63
00:05:29,820 --> 00:05:32,700
Kevin, if you'd like to provide me with those handouts, I'll provide them to the commission.

64
00:05:34,020 --> 00:05:35,140
Would you like additional?

65
00:05:37,730 --> 00:05:40,250
If we do we have any other requests to speak online?

66
00:05:41,070 --> 00:05:42,690
I do not have anyone online, no.

67
00:05:43,830 --> 00:05:46,950
Hearing none, we will move forward with the next item on the agenda.

68
00:05:47,110 --> 00:05:52,350
That is approval of the agenda for today's day, January 7th, 20th, 20th, 26th.

69
00:05:52,370 --> 00:05:54,230
Can I get a motion to approve our agenda?

70
00:05:55,090 --> 00:05:56,130
So approved, so moved.

71
00:05:56,870 --> 00:05:57,650
Commissioner Messera.

72
00:05:58,690 --> 00:05:59,130
Second.

73
00:05:59,850 --> 00:06:01,110
We have a motion and a second.

74
00:06:01,290 --> 00:06:02,110
All in favor say hi.

75
00:06:02,470 --> 00:06:02,690
Hi.

76
00:06:02,950 --> 00:06:03,050

77
00:06:04,590 --> 00:06:05,270

80
00:06:15,610 --> 00:06:17,730
Can I get a motion to approve that set of minutes?

81
00:06:18,190 --> 00:06:19,390
Commissioner Williams motion to approve.

82
00:06:19,850 --> 00:06:21,110
Commissioner Gompi and Teeny second.

83
00:06:21,530 --> 00:06:23,530

87
00:06:27,190 --> 00:06:28,950

00:06:35,150 --> 00:06:35,770
Motion to approve.

90
00:06:36,010 --> 00:06:37,230

Aye.

95
00:06:43,790 --> 00:06:44,830
Any of us are abstain?

96
00:06:45,290 --> 00:06:45,730
I was absent.

97
00:06:47,670 --> 00:06:50,050
We have one abstention from Commissioner Bacera.

98
00:06:50,310 --> 00:06:51,910
Do we have any opposed?

99
00:06:53,370 --> 00:06:58,810
Hearing none, motion carries with one abstention from Commissioner Bacera.

100
00:06:59,750 --> 00:07:02,470
Item B, staff announcements, Mr. Rayleigh.

101
00:07:03,510 --> 00:07:05,730
Thank you, Mr. Chair, just a couple quick announcements.

102
00:07:07,010 --> 00:07:10,890
I know this is of interest to several of the commissioners, Angela Fouce and her team

103
00:07:10,890 --> 00:07:16,570
have developed a series of trainings that we will be bringing forward just based on agenda

104
00:07:16,570 --> 00:07:17,310
caseload.

105
00:07:17,710 --> 00:07:24,390
So far, what we have are the following trainings, understanding in fill development, purpose

106
00:07:24,390 --> 00:07:28,710
of the master plan, understanding the legal framework that governs public meetings

107
00:07:28,710 --> 00:07:43,990
and decision-making bodies, planning commission, ethics and communication, and community engagement principles and strategies for effective public outreach and not in any particular order, but those will be coming forward, you know, agenda, caseload permitting.

108
00:07:44,750 --> 00:07:58,050
Also, just a couple of quick updates. The River Bend conditional use permit, which you approved along with the tentative map, is scheduled to go to City Council next week in order to get council support for a regional plan amendment for

109
00:07:58,050 --> 00:08:03,610
the utility corridor relocation portion of that project and also the Lake Ridge Resort

110
00:08:03,610 --> 00:08:08,590
specific plan district will go to City Council on January 28th. Those are my only announcements.

111
00:08:09,190 --> 00:08:15,850
Happy New Year. Thank you, Mr. Reilly. We will move on in our agenda to public hearings.

112
00:08:16,230 --> 00:08:21,930
This is item C1, a staff report for possible action and recommendation to City Council case

113
00:08:21,930 --> 00:08:25,290
Please number LDC26-25.

114
00:08:25,690 --> 00:08:28,990
This is 386 Holcomb's Zoning Map Amendment.

115
00:08:29,650 --> 00:08:33,450
We will start with a presentation from staff, Mr. Foster, please proceed.

116
00:08:33,970 --> 00:08:37,390
Okay, excuse me, good evening, members of the Planning Commission.

117
00:08:37,790 --> 00:08:40,250
Jeff Foster, Associate Planner for the Record.

118
00:08:41,550 --> 00:08:48,430
As Chair Jockeman said, I'm bringing you case, LDC26-25, the Zoning Map Amendment for 386 Holcomb.

119
00:08:49,370 --> 00:08:57,990
The project site is a single parcel that is 0.17 acres in size located at the northeast corner of Holcombe Avenue and Stewart Street.

120
00:08:58,770 --> 00:09:09,090
It is developed with an approximate 5,000 square foot office building that was built in 1980 and that is the former Reno City Employees Federal Credit Union.

121
00:09:09,830 --> 00:09:17,330
The request before you is a zone change from professional office or PO to mixed use downtown Riverwalk District or MDRD.

122
00:09:17,330 --> 00:09:22,670
and also to remove the Welles Avenue neighborhood planning area over late

123
00:09:22,670 --> 00:09:28,610
district WANP designation. Thank goodness for acronyms because that is an

124
00:09:28,610 --> 00:09:37,190
absolute mouthful. Alright zooming in here the multi you can see to the north we

125
00:09:37,190 --> 00:09:42,230
have multi-family there are small office conversions to the east and to the

126
00:09:42,230 --> 00:09:47,150
south and to the west you have an office building. The key issue that

127
00:09:47,150 --> 00:09:51,230
The staff analyzed his compatibility of the proposed zoning with the surrounding zoning

128
00:09:51,230 --> 00:09:51,910
and development.

129
00:09:53,450 --> 00:09:58,630
So turning to zoning, again, the current zoning for the parcel is professional office

130
00:09:58,630 --> 00:09:59,950
as you can see on the left.

131
00:10:00,910 --> 00:10:05,610
PO, please note, does not conform with the master plan designation.

132
00:10:06,210 --> 00:10:12,970
The proposed change is to the mixed use downtown riverwalk district or MDRD zone as you can see

133
00:10:12,970 --> 00:10:18,710
on the right. And also as you can see there, that zone is also found to the north and to the west.

134
00:10:19,610 --> 00:10:24,450
MDRD is intended to support the downtown regional center. Minimum densities are applied

135
00:10:24,450 --> 00:10:30,150
to support the use of transit and other alternative modes. Primary uses include a mix of employment,

136
00:10:30,630 --> 00:10:37,830
retail and cultural facilities as well as high density residential. In contrast, the PO zone

137
00:10:37,830 --> 00:10:44,130
It provides for office conversions and small office development, such as the existing office building on the site.

138
00:10:44,830 --> 00:10:51,510
The proposed MDRD zone allows for minimum density of 21 units per acre with no maximum density.

139
00:10:52,250 --> 00:10:59,710
Surrounding densities vary, higher density development exists to the north and to the southwest, with lesser densities to the east.

140
00:11:00,250 --> 00:11:05,150
The 43 unit apartment building to the north has a density of about 64 units per acre.

141
00:11:05,150 --> 00:11:11,070
Given the general development pattern in the area surrounding uses and zoning the proposed

142
00:11:11,070 --> 00:11:16,130
amendment to MDRD is considered to be consistent and compatible with the surrounding zoning

143
00:11:16,130 --> 00:11:16,850
and development.

144
00:11:17,510 --> 00:11:23,810
Since the WAMP does not include any mixed use downtown river walk districts, sorry mixed

145
00:11:23,810 --> 00:11:30,150
use downtown districts as conforming based zoning districts, rezoning to MDRD necessitates

146
00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:33,990
removal of the WAMP overlay designation.

147
00:11:33,990 --> 00:11:47,410
Given that the subject parcel is at the northwest edge of the WAMP removal of the designation will not create a gap or inconsistency in the overlay or it's continued in future application.

148
00:11:49,980 --> 00:11:58,560
The master plan land use is downtown mixed use for DTMU and on the screen are eight goals and policies that are in support of the proposed zone change request.

149
00:11:59,620 --> 00:12:05,380
On the screen before you are the allowed uses in the MD RD zone.

150
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:12,760
At the bottom of the screen highlighted in yellow are the uses that require either a minor

151
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:18,820
conditional use permit which is an administrative review or a full conditional use permit with

152
00:12:18,820 --> 00:12:20,200
approval by the planning commission.

153
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:28,040
Here are the development standards for the existing PO zone and the proposed MD RD zone.

154
00:12:30,470 --> 00:12:32,310
And here are the recommended findings.

155
00:12:32,790 --> 00:12:34,610
Staff can make all recommended findings.

156
00:12:36,610 --> 00:12:38,190
And here's the recommended motion.

157
00:12:38,370 --> 00:12:41,030
And again, because this request involves removal

158
00:12:41,030 --> 00:12:43,230
of the W-A-N-P designation,

159
00:12:43,710 --> 00:12:46,110
that is also part of the proposed motion.

160
00:12:46,630 --> 00:12:47,410
That's it for me.

161
00:12:47,950 --> 00:12:51,190
The applicant is here and does have a very brief presentation,

162
00:12:51,190 --> 00:12:53,190
and then we will both be available for questions.

163
00:12:55,790 --> 00:12:57,330
Please proceed with your presentation

164
00:12:57,330 --> 00:12:58,530
and stay your name for the record.

165
00:12:59,350 --> 00:13:00,270
Hi, my name is Ryan Mix,

166
00:13:00,270 --> 00:13:02,790
and thank you guys all for taking the time here.

167
00:13:03,690 --> 00:13:05,430
Is it in the same thing?

168
00:13:05,490 --> 00:13:06,990
Yeah, the procedures is coming up.

169
00:13:07,310 --> 00:13:07,630
Oh, okay.

170
00:13:17,460 --> 00:13:19,520
I'm gonna let Nick cue that up just for a second.

171
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:20,240
I don't wanna mess it up.

172
00:13:29,700 --> 00:13:32,220
So I guess while that's getting pulled up, my name is Ryan Mix.

173
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,400
I'm the owner of the building, real estate developer here locally.

174
00:13:36,140 --> 00:13:39,180
We were excited to acquire this property about eight months ago

175
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,260
from the Reno Federal Credit Union.

176
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,340
I'm sure you guys have seen the big red building as you drive down the Holcomb Street.

177
00:13:45,260 --> 00:13:47,900
After they were acquired, the building fell into a bit of disrepair.

178
00:13:48,340 --> 00:13:52,740
The first time we saw it walk through it seemed like it really fit the area to become multi-family.

179
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,800
Nice units, brand new units, has the walk-up feel with a lot of the surrounding buildings

180
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:58,300
do as well.

181
00:13:59,000 --> 00:13:59,700
So that was our plan.

182
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:05,260
That's our plan through the zoning change to be able to achieve that dream here, did a

183
00:14:05,260 --> 00:14:08,760
little AI mock up of what the building could look like here, bringing up the current standards

184
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:15,520
with landscaping, bike racks, off-street parking, et cetera, and that's a plan with the building,

185
00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:20,620
so we want to try to develop eight multifamily units. There'll be four one bedroom, one baths,

186
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:26,660
four two bedroom one baths, bringing in modern amenities, heating, cooling, in-unit laundry,

187
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:33,720
and also due to the previous use, had great parking on-site. So we'll divide 10 parking spaces

188
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,460
This is off street, which I know is always a challenge in that area.

189
00:14:38,340 --> 00:14:43,140
So we're excited to breathe some new life into this building and I appreciate everyone's time here.

190
00:14:45,450 --> 00:14:46,550
Thank you for the presentation.

191
00:14:47,070 --> 00:14:50,750
We will now move to disclosures and then public comments.

192
00:14:51,070 --> 00:14:52,330
So Commissioner McGon Fientini.

193
00:14:52,890 --> 00:14:55,050
Red and review the materials familiar with the site.

194
00:14:55,890 --> 00:14:58,450
Commissioner come on, red and reviewed materials.

195
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,840
Mr. Williams, red-and-reviewed materials and familiar with the area. We will now go online for disclosures.

196
00:15:07,940 --> 00:15:12,600
Mr. Delvierre, red-and-reviewed materials, and I am familiar with the site.

197
00:15:13,780 --> 00:15:15,620
Commissioner Romero, same disclosures.

198
00:15:17,220 --> 00:15:22,980
Mr. Besera, same disclosures. Madam Clerk, do we have any requests to speak under this item?

199
00:15:23,340 --> 00:15:26,820
I do not have any requests to speak in person, and I do not have anyone online.

200
00:15:26,820 --> 00:15:41,640
Thank you very much. We will now move to questions from the commission and Madam Clark, if you could put the Zoom participants on the screen so that I could see if there's a request to speak, I would appreciate it.

201
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:42,360
Thank

202
00:15:44,730 --> 00:15:44,730
you.

203
00:15:44,730 --> 00:15:45,350
Commissioner Basera.

204
00:15:46,790 --> 00:15:46,910
Great.

205
00:15:47,130 --> 00:15:47,530
Thank you, Chair.

206
00:15:47,930 --> 00:15:53,150
A solid record for what I can tell and a great package, Jeff and crew.

207
00:15:53,770 --> 00:15:58,230
Jeff, could you just confirm for the record that any future non-residential views would require

208
00:15:58,230 --> 00:16:01,850
a site plan review due to the residential adjacency?

209
00:16:03,290 --> 00:16:06,810
Commissioner Basera, that is actually not correct.

210
00:16:08,150 --> 00:16:08,410
Okay.

211
00:16:08,410 --> 00:16:13,690
was included in the staff report, but I was, it was clarified to me by our principal

212
00:16:13,690 --> 00:16:20,530
planner, that because that is in the MDRD zone, the downtown district, there's an exception

213
00:16:20,530 --> 00:16:26,690
in code that eliminates the requirement for a minor site plan review for non-residential

214
00:16:26,690 --> 00:16:31,350
development adjacent to residential. So my staff report is incorrect on that matter.

215
00:16:32,170 --> 00:16:40,630
So, what does that mean, I guess, for folks with that clarification or correction, what should we consider?

216
00:16:41,350 --> 00:16:50,510
So, the proposed use is for multi-family, which would obviously be residential development, and it's just redevelopment of an existing structure.

217
00:16:50,510 --> 00:17:01,930
However, as you know, zone changes can lead to any number of other uses should the applicant demolish the building or another owner procure the building, et cetera, and want to do something else.

218
00:17:02,310 --> 00:17:19,090
So, if a another use came through that was non-residential, if it was one of the uses that was on the bottom of my one slide that was highlighted in yellow, those would require either an MUP or a CUP.

219
00:17:19,090 --> 00:17:27,990
But if not, then the uses would be allowed by right with application of the standard development

220
00:17:27,990 --> 00:17:28,770
code requirements.

221
00:17:29,770 --> 00:17:30,650
Okay, great.

222
00:17:30,850 --> 00:17:31,170
Thanks, Jeff.

223
00:17:31,330 --> 00:17:37,430
And just for further clarity, since there was a correction, really we're also trying to

224
00:17:37,430 --> 00:17:38,170
get things in alignment.

225
00:17:38,450 --> 00:17:38,550
Correct?

226
00:17:38,930 --> 00:17:43,150
Could be because the current PO zoning doesn't conform with the downtown PIXU semester plan

227
00:17:43,150 --> 00:17:43,550
designation.

228
00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:44,690
That's correct.

229
00:17:44,690 --> 00:17:54,990
the current zone in the current zone does not conform and so the proposed R.D. does the M.D. R.D. does and would bring it into conformance. Yes.

230
00:17:55,890 --> 00:17:57,290
Excellent. Thanks, Jeff. You bet.

231
00:18:01,950 --> 00:18:07,050
Commissioner Jockeman, I'll just ask one question. Obviously we have some conceptual site plans in front of us.

232
00:18:07,770 --> 00:18:17,310
Should we be looking at those at this time? Obviously there could be questions about parking and so forth, but is it correct that that will be addressed at a later stage in the process?

233
00:18:17,310 --> 00:18:24,670
Yes, and in fact, as I generally do with zone change requests, I did a more in-depth analysis

234
00:18:24,670 --> 00:18:29,250
of the potential development of the site based on the applicant's request for those eight

235
00:18:29,250 --> 00:18:30,370
multifamily units.

236
00:18:30,950 --> 00:18:36,290
So I have already given him a heads up on all of the considerations that he needs to factor

237
00:18:36,290 --> 00:18:39,810
in in terms of parking and landscaping, et cetera, et cetera.

238
00:18:39,970 --> 00:18:46,050
So he's already aware of the different things that would need to be addressed down the line

239
00:18:46,050 --> 00:18:48,370
at subsequent building permit stage.

240
00:18:48,850 --> 00:18:49,310
Thank you.

241
00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:54,760
Do we have any other questions from the commission?

242
00:18:58,290 --> 00:18:59,530
I do not see any online.

243
00:18:59,970 --> 00:19:01,910
If we do not have any other questions and chambers,

244
00:19:02,150 --> 00:19:04,250
we can now move to deliberations or a motion.

245
00:19:06,890 --> 00:19:07,690
Commissioner Bazarra.

246
00:19:08,470 --> 00:19:09,310
Sure, but thank you, Chair.

247
00:19:09,370 --> 00:19:10,890
It's just going to make a quick rebar.

248
00:19:12,110 --> 00:19:14,010
Because I also just think it's good practice to state

249
00:19:14,010 --> 00:19:16,510
for the record why we support an application when possible

250
00:19:16,510 --> 00:19:19,110
and not only when we kind of have to explain it

251
00:19:19,110 --> 00:19:21,550
when we get checked, but as I think Jeff confirmed,

252
00:19:21,550 --> 00:19:25,610
And this is really about alignment and I think it's good that we're trying to get things

253
00:19:26,310 --> 00:19:32,490
square away with the master plan and I think Jeff and the applicant did a great job

254
00:19:32,490 --> 00:19:37,630
with what we were presented tonight and coordinating with folks through the NAB.

255
00:19:38,730 --> 00:19:46,990
So I really appreciate the work and really, you know, for those reasons and for having

256
00:19:46,990 --> 00:19:51,490
appropriate guard rules in place, uncomfortable supporting the recommendation based on the findings,

257
00:19:51,530 --> 00:19:54,270
and I'm happy to make a motion to support it when folks are ready.

258
00:19:56,460 --> 00:19:58,680
Thank you. I believe next to us Commissioner Roormire.

259
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:05,940
Thank you. Yeah, I just want to say this looks like a really good project. Of course,

260
00:20:06,120 --> 00:20:11,920
for the zone change we don't know what the details will be, but this is a nice reuse of this building.

261
00:20:12,420 --> 00:20:18,940
I will say it's another wonderful example of why we should sunset some of these really out-of-date

262
00:20:18,940 --> 00:20:26,700
neighborhood plans like the Wells Avenue plan that dates back decades. So it is one more barrier

263
00:20:26,700 --> 00:20:31,460
to the kinds of development we'd like to see more of which is this kind of infill and redevelopment.

264
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,080
So I appreciate this one.

265
00:20:35,460 --> 00:20:39,280
Commissioner Delvier. Yeah I just want to second everything.

266
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:45,300
The previous commissioners talked about. I really think that this is a good project. It's a good

267
00:20:45,300 --> 00:20:52,320
use of the space. I was really pleased that the neighborhood, the nabs, and the comments

268
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:57,560
that we got were also in support of it. My biggest issue was sort of just the parking

269
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:02,880
issue, but that obviously is part of that. And so, and again, since this is just a recommendation

270
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:09,220
currently for a zoning change for a city council to approve, I can definitely get behind this project.

271
00:21:12,090 --> 00:21:17,550
Seeing no other requests to speak, I'll second some of those comments. I think this is a great

272
00:21:18,270 --> 00:21:26,630
location for this rezone and likely could be an infill project, so it's adjacent to the

273
00:21:26,630 --> 00:21:27,350
same zoning.

274
00:21:27,470 --> 00:21:32,550
I think this is a good place and a good appropriate change, so I will now entertain a motion

275
00:21:32,550 --> 00:21:34,290
if anyone would like to make one.

276
00:21:35,090 --> 00:21:36,270
Commissioner Williams, I'm happy to.

277
00:21:36,490 --> 00:21:37,190
It's right in front of me.

278
00:21:38,310 --> 00:21:38,970
Please proceed.

279
00:21:40,050 --> 00:21:46,310
Commissioner Williams, for the record, in the matter of case, LDC-26-0025, based upon the compliance

280
00:21:46,310 --> 00:21:47,350
with the applicable findings.

281
00:21:47,650 --> 00:21:52,490
I move to recommend that City Council approve the Zoni map amendment by ordinance and remove

282
00:21:52,490 --> 00:21:57,270
the Wells Avenue neighborhood planning area overlay district designation from the site

283
00:21:57,270 --> 00:21:58,350
and I can make all the findings.

284
00:21:58,570 --> 00:21:59,350
Commissioner Goffney.

285
00:21:59,770 --> 00:22:03,850
We have a motion and a second.

286
00:22:03,850 --> 00:22:05,790
All those in favor say aye.

287
00:22:06,330 --> 00:22:06,550
Aye.

288
00:22:06,910 --> 00:22:07,070
Aye.

289
00:22:07,690 --> 00:22:07,770
Aye.

290
00:22:07,770 --> 00:22:07,870
Aye.

291
00:22:08,430 --> 00:22:08,950
Any opposed?

292
00:22:09,850 --> 00:22:12,050
Hearing none, motion carries unanimously.

293
00:22:12,050 --> 00:22:14,990
that concludes item C1 on the agenda.

294
00:22:16,970 --> 00:22:18,730
Our next item is business items.

295
00:22:19,510 --> 00:22:22,810
Mr. Reilly, do we have anything extra that was not covered under staff announcements?

296
00:22:23,090 --> 00:22:24,150
Nothing this evening, thank you.

297
00:22:24,990 --> 00:22:28,510
Item E, we have the Truckee Meadows Regional Planning Liaison Report.

298
00:22:28,970 --> 00:22:33,050
We have not had a meeting since our last city planning commission meeting.

299
00:22:33,610 --> 00:22:38,670
Our next meeting is on January 22nd at 6 p.m.

300
00:22:38,670 --> 00:22:47,050
I believe this will be held in the RTC, again, Commissioner Rormire correct me if I'm wrong about that.

301
00:22:47,970 --> 00:22:56,890
That's correct. And we also, the Regional Code, Regional Coordination Subcommittee is meeting on Thursday morning.

302
00:22:58,350 --> 00:23:00,610
Do you know where the location of that meeting?

303
00:23:01,090 --> 00:23:02,670
That's the RTC conference room.

304
00:23:03,230 --> 00:23:04,050
Perfect. Thank you.

305
00:23:04,050 --> 00:23:07,690
So item F, a future agenda items.

306
00:23:08,490 --> 00:23:10,950
Do we have anything from staff on this one?

307
00:23:12,190 --> 00:23:14,090
Nothing from staff that we haven't already discussed.

308
00:23:15,290 --> 00:23:18,450
Okay, thank you for the update on the upcoming trainings.

309
00:23:19,850 --> 00:23:23,250
We'll move on to, do we have any other requests under this item?

310
00:23:25,870 --> 00:23:30,310
We'll now move on to item G, G1, public comment, Madam Clerk.

311
00:23:30,510 --> 00:23:32,030
Any requests to speak online?

312
00:23:32,570 --> 00:23:33,690
No requests to speak online.

313
00:23:33,690 --> 00:23:39,070
Okay, I see chambers is empty. We will now adjourn the meeting. Can I get a motion to adjourn?

314
00:23:39,290 --> 00:23:39,930
Commissioner Pompeo.

315
00:23:40,570 --> 00:23:41,690
Motion to adjourn.

316
00:23:42,490 --> 00:23:43,310
Commissioner Williams, second.

317
00:23:44,450 --> 00:23:46,330
We have motion a second. All in favor say aye.

318
00:23:46,670 --> 00:23:48,130
Aye. Aye.

319
00:23:48,450 --> 00:23:49,450
Meeting adjourned.

320
00:23:50,590 --> 00:23:51,190
Good evening.
