Subject : Reconsideration of the "Crossroads" , use permit # U 1390,
and discussion of PD alternative to' enable residential
units in addition to commercial & offices . .
Dear Peg :
As we discussed by phone last week, our meetings with individual
City Council members regarding the above project at Broad Street
. and Orcutt Road indicated basic support for reconsideration, and
apparent interest to encourage planned development rezoning to
enable residential units in addition to the commercial and office
uses proposed. An additional benefit of the PD rezoning would be
the increased control the City would have on the mixture of uses .
The. ' next step would be for the City Council to officially agree
to reconsider the use permit, or alternatively, to encourage the
PD rezoning application by the property owners . While the PD must
start from the beginning procedurally, taking several months
longer to resolve than reconsideration of the use permit , we are
prepared to file the PD application, if the Council prefers this
approach and concept .
. We appreciate your willingness to initiate the Council discussion
of this matter as a communications item during the January 3,
1989, City Council meeting. We feel confident that other Council
members will support either the PD or reconsideration, if one of
the members who previously voted to restrict the originally
proposed LISPS indicates a desire to reconsider the project .
As you know, we also revised the design of the project to
eliminate the truck loading bay at the front corner of the site,
a feature you specifically found undesirable .
If you have any questions regarding this request or the project,
please call . We look forward to further consideration of the
project in the next few months, and feel sure the end product of
this extra effort will be rewarding to both the City and the
property owners
Sincerely,
Robetg, A. I C.P.
