(b) Seven units accessible to handicapped.
C. Engineering Considerations
Request that street improvements on Sam Peck be
extended through the water easement during this project
or on a future adjacent project.
D. Analysis
Staff has no problems with the proposed layout. The
major issue here relates to the sewer density
restriction in this area. Since a precedent has been
set by denial of density transfers for the Pleasant
Valley Condominiums to the east, this application
cannot be allowed to violate the density restriction
under any circumstances.
E. Staff Recommendation
Approval, subject to comments made.

SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
There was considerable discussion relative to the density
question. The applicant contended that the restrictions on
this area should not apply to this property, since it was
rezoned in June 1980, which was prior to adoption of
restrictive resolution on May 5, 1981. A letter from
Wastewater Utilities stating the present capacity to serve
this tract was presented. The Committee passed this to the
Commission, subject to a legal opinion by the City Attorney
which would give some evidence of whether or not the
situation is comparable to other proposals in the area which
have been restricted.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
The applicant was present. No one objected. Due to
Wastewater's approval of the project and the prior rezoning
status of the property, staff modified its position to that
of approval. A motion was made and passed to approve the
item, subject to Engineering considerations. The vote:
8 ayes, 0 noes, 2 absent and 1 abstention (Commissioner
Summerlin abstained).
