Case #05-146289RZ
26209 Pleasant Park Road - 22.82 acres off
of Pleasant Park Road ½ mile east of Hwy 285. Request
to rezone 22.82 acre parcel to allow two apartment structures
each containing 25 units plus 40 townhouse units. Community Meeting
was held 8/16/04. Application was submitted 1/18/05. Planning
Commission recommended denial on January 25, 2006. BCC granted
Indefinite Continuance. They have until 11/8/06 to request hearings
OR they can withdraw and resubmit at any time OR they will be
denied and can’t resubmit for 1 year.
STATUS: This development
is back. New zoning signs were posted on Tuesday, April 3rd.
The Planning Commission recommended denial
of this development on January 25, 2007. The Board of County Commissioners
remanded this case back to the Planning Commission at the BOCC hearing
on January 2, 2007. The issues identified by the Board of Commissioners
are density, access, and water.
On April 25, 2007, the Planning Commission
heard initial comments from the developer and the county Planning
and Zoning Department staff. The new data presented by the developer
was one well test log and two letters provided by the developer.
The public gave comment on the development. Since the letters were
not made available to the public prior the hearing, the commission
extended public comment through letters to be received by close
of business Monday, April 30, 2007. The Planning Commission resumed
on Wednesday, May 2nd for discussion of written comments on the
two letters and rebuttal by the developer. The previous denial by
the planning commission remains in place so the commission simply
clarified their input regarding water, density, and access. The
Planning Commission
comments are available for public review.
The Board of County Commissioners hearing
is now scheduled for Tuesday, April 15th at 9 am. Discussion will
again focus on access, water, and density.

Hearing: March 6, 2007 at 9 AM

of the 60 acre property just east of the Conifer Corners property
along Pleasant Park are requesting a Special Use permit to set
up 6 Paintball Play fields within 13 acres just north of Pleasant
Park Rd. The plan includes a 48 car parking lot for up to 60
participants. The Paintball will operate 7 days a week from 8AM
to 6 PM.

to oppose the Paintball proposal. The reasons for opposition
were: (a) not compatible with land use of the surrounding area,

and (i) inconsistent with the community character.
