Community Development Director Gladhill confirmed that would be a public sidewalk and City <br />staff would maintain that amenity. <br />Councilmember Musgrove referenced the decks and stated that she would like more information <br />on the deck material and safety rating. She stated that the Planning Commission also discussed <br />the air conditioning units and asked for details. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill stated that the proposed material is a common <br />material used for multi -family buildings. He noted that the permitting would go through the <br />building permit process and review and was confident that would meet the required design <br />standards. He provided additional details on the air conditioning units proposed and stated that <br />staff is working with the developer to better design and screen the units. <br />Councilmember Kuzma stated that when the land was sold for this development there was <br />always a plan for phase one and phase two, noting that phase two would not be built unless there <br />was demand. He noted that the first phase filled quickly and there is now demand for phase two. <br />He stated that he was pleased with the outcome of the first phase and will support this request. <br />He noted that the applicant is also not requesting any subsidies. <br />Matt Kuker, PSD, stated that this is an odd shaped site which created challenges in development. <br />He referenced the garages along 145th and agreed that it will be nice to incorporate pedestrian <br />seating and amenities along that stretch of sidewalk. He stated that the decks are powder coated <br />aluminum which ensures that there will be no rot. He explained that one of the biggest costs for <br />an apatttnent after 20 to 30 years is rot of the wood piece under the deck which then needs to be <br />replaced on all units. He noted that using metal ensures that will not cause a problem in the <br />future. He described the architectural design of the garages, noting that the overall window <br />spacing and tuckunders would be similar to Parkview but would be slightly different as Parkview <br />is under different ownership. He stated that in regard to the dog park he would be open to either <br />option. He noted that the Planning Commission previously commented that there was too much <br />parking. <br />Community Development Director Gladhill explained that the recommendation of the Planning <br />Commission would be to remove nine stalls and expand the size of the dog park. <br />Mr. Kuker stated that he often drives past Parkview to determine if there is sufficient parking in <br />order to use for future project calculations. He agreed that he could remove the nine stalls. <br />Councilmember Musgrove stated that she would support expanding the dog park and removing <br />the nine stalls. She asked for details on the swimming pool. <br />Mr. Kuker replied that there would be a full indoor pool and hot tub and advised that patio doors <br />would open to the patio area and playground for use by residents. He stated that when the initial <br />site plan was done there were two buildings shown in the concept and advised that this has <br />followed the original intent of the concept as much as possible. <br />Mayor LeTourneau asked for information on demand. <br />City Council / July 9, 2019 <br />Page 5 of 13 <br />
