5.01: Consider Landscape Plan for Suite Living; Case of Hampton Companies <br />City Planner Anderson presented the staff report. He stated that the City has received an <br />application from Hampton Companies for a Site Plan for Suite Living, a proposed 32 unit, assisted <br />living facility located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Jaspar Street and 139th Lane. <br />The Environmental Policy Board may recall reviewing a Sketch Plan earlier this year for <br />Rivenwick 3rd Addition, which was to be a mix of townhomes, commercial and this assisted living <br />facility. This project was shifted east, adjacent to the existing townhome development to the east, <br />to take advantage of the fact that the public road is already in place. He recommended that the <br />Board recommend approval of the proposed Landscape Plan, contingent upon compliance with the <br />Staff Review Letter, and to support the requirement for a noise study and any applicable noise <br />mitigation measures. <br />Board Member Hiatt asked if it is becoming common practice to request a noise study for <br />development cases near Highway 10 because of potential improvements on the highway. <br />City Planner Anderson confirmed that would be similar for other residential projects along that <br />corridor. <br />Chairperson Valentine asked for additional details on the noise study, specifically what is used for <br />comparison. <br />City Planner Anderson stated that staff has a baseline to use for comparison purposes. <br />Board Member Fetterley stated that it does not seem there is a lot of room for additional plantings <br />between the building and highway, should that be recommended from the noise study. <br />City Planner Anderson stated that modifications to the plan may be required dependent on the <br />results of the noise study. He noted that berming could help and that would not require a wide <br />strip of land. He noted that a combination of tactics could be used for noise mitigation, if that is <br />necessary. <br />Motion by Board Member Fetterley and seconded by Board Member Hiatt to recommend approval <br />of the proposed Landscape Plan, contingent upon compliance with the Staff Review Letter, and to <br />support the requirement for a noise study and any applicable noise mitigation measures. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Valentine, Board Member Fetterley, Hiatt, Bernard, and <br />Covart. Voting No: None. Absent: Board Member Madison and Moore. <br />5.02: Consider Landscape Plan for Ramsey Storage Center (Project No. 19-119); Case of <br />Ramsey Storage Center, LLC <br />City Planner Anderson presented the staff report.
