CALL TO ORDER MINUTES The next item of business was LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENT the approval of the Large Scale Development CHARTER VISTA HOSPITAL Plan for Charter Vista Hospital to be located South of HIGHWAY 265 the Southwest corner of Highway 265 (Crossover Road) and the new Zion Road. Property is zoned C-1, Neighborhood Commercial District: and R-0, Residential Office District; Charter Medical Corporation - Developer. Jim Lindsey was present to represent. He stated this is a conditional use in the zoning districts where it is located, the approval for this use was granted by the Planning Commission last July. Upon a request by Barbara Crook, Bobbie Jones reviewed the surrounding zoning of the site which is R-0, Residential Office District to the South; R-2, Medium Density Residential District to the West; and C-1, Neighborhood Commercial and R-0, Residential Office Districts to the North. Don Hunnicutt asked if a waiver of the screening requirement was being requested. Bobbie Jones stated she had had no official request from the developer for a waiver from the screening requirement; screening is required between the proposed use and any R -zoned property to the North, West and South. Jim Lindsey stated he would like to see some type of landscaping.used for screening. Lindsey said he is the owner of the property surrounding this site. Williams stated he would rather see screening consist of greenery rather than a fence. The Committee addressed the required 200 ft. setback from R -zoned property. Lindsey stated he felt the 200 ft. setback was intended to be from residentially developed property. He stated when the ordinance was originally adopted, the R-0 district was similar to R-3 and could be developed residentially by right. However, the ordinance has since been amended, and R-0 zoned property cannot be developed residentially without Planning Commission approval. He felt the waiver of the 200 ft. setback from R-0 zoned property should be waived to the 185 ft. proposed for initial development and the 150 ft. proposed for future development from the R-0 zoned property to the South. X52 • Subdivision Committee Meeting February 19, 1982 Page 2 Barbara Crook stated she could not go along with a waiver of the 200 ft. setback as the site is 10 acres, and there appears to be adequate site space to meet the setbacks without creating any hardship whatsoever to the developer. David Williams moved the Large Scale Development Plan be approved with the following conditions: 1. The Plan will be subject to all Plat Review Committee comments and requests. 2. Recommend the Planning Commission waive the 200 ft. setback to 185 ft. for initial development and 150 ft. for future development from•the South property line with a clarification of the use of the building at those points. 3. Screening between R -Zoned property and the proposed use will be as required by the Planning Commission. Martin Redfern seconded.
