Public hearing to consider and take action regarding the petition of Ron Doe Homes to alter an existing Planned Development District (PD) Site Plan in the Primrose No. 2 Addition, Lots 3 and 4, Block B, LCAD Property ID 111018 and 111019, located in the 4200 Block of Primrose. Easton states Doreen Ruthhart has submitted a modified site plan on behalf of Ron Doe Homes for lots 3 and 4 of the Primrose II Subdivision, in order to build a more traditional style home with minimum building setbacks. This is in response to a requirement in the International Residential Code to provide fire -rated walls where minimum building separation is not met. Under the current approved site plan from 1994, both side walls on a new home would need to be fire -rated, as they would be built on or near the lot line. The owner/builder is proposing to combine two lots in order to construct a home meeting the minimum requirements in the IRC without fire -rated walls. Easton states if approved, a home constructed in this way will not be visually consistent with the existing five homes on the street, so the expectation of neighboring property owners should be closely considered as part of the site plan approval. Public hearing declared open. Carolyn Patterson states she owns the home across from the lots. She spoke in favor of the petition as long as it is a single-family home and not a duplex. Christy Wendell states she does not have any concerns for combining the two lots. Wendell asked if the floor plan for this home has been submitted to be consistent with the other homes in the area. Commissioner O'Bryan advised that building plans are not part of their review. Easton read some of the stipulations of the previous site plan regarding brick veneer. Public hearing declared closed. Motion was made by Clifton Fendley, seconded by Rick Hundley to approve the petition altering the existing Site Plan with the stipulations brought forward from the original Site Plan. Motion carried 5-0. 5. Public hearing to consider and take action regarding the petition of Wilson Brothers LLC to alter an existing Planned Development District (PD) Site Plan in the Paris Towne Crossing Addition, Lot 6A, Block 1, LCAD Property ID 401417, located in the 1300 Block of N Collegiate Dr. Easton states Roderick Tatchio has submitted a modified site plan on behalf of the owner showing the proposed Ashley Furniture Home Store on part of the original Lot 6. The primary change is the size of the store with respect to the overall retail center, which originally planned for a single large retail development. The site plan appears to comply with the subdivision and zoning regulations, and staff sees no reason to oppose this modification to the original site plan. Easton states we have received a single letter of support for the site plan change. Public hearing was declared open. With no one speaking the public hearing was declared closed. Motion was made by Keith Flowers, seconded by James O'Bryan to approve the petition altering the existing Site Plan. Motion carried 5-0. 6.
