Ideally, the lot split would occur concurrently with a Comprehensive Plan <br />Amendment from Low Density Residential to something that would allow the expansion of this <br />existing commercial greenhouse. However, the time to consider and approve will take a longer <br />period of time than Green Valley Greenhouse has with an existing purchase agreement. A closing <br />is scheduled for the end of August. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill reported staff believes that any liability can be covered <br />in a Development Agreement. By approving this lot split, there is no approval of any site plan for <br />expansion of Green Valley Greenhouse. Green Valley will still need a Comprehensive Plan <br />Amendment and Site Plan Approval prior to any construction activities that would expand the <br />footprint of the existing facility. Staff recommends approval of this Plat, contingent upon the <br />Applicant entering into a Development Agreement with the City and the completion of a <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment prior to any actual construction activities. <br />Commission Business <br />Commissioner Nosan asked if the pending purchase agreement was for Lot 1, Block 1. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill stated this was correct and noted this was an "L" <br />shaped lot that was approximately 64.37 acres in size. He reported the homestead would remain <br />on 12 acres of land. He provided further comment on the proposed land transaction. <br />Brad Wolf, 6421 Green Valley Road, discussed with the Commission his proposed building <br />expansion and described how his business has been growing in recent years. <br />Vice Chair Van Scoy congratulated Mr. Wolf on his successful business. <br />Planning Commission / August 3, 2017 <br />Page 12 of 15 <br />
