'UBLIC HEARINGS
Public hearing was continued to this time and place for Conditional Use Permit No. 404
for a 100-unit senior citizen board and care facility located on the north side of Cypress
Avenue, approximately 150 feet west of Redlands Boulevard, R-2-2000 Zone, in order
for representatives of the applicant, Mrs. Goodwin, and Mrs. Wilson to meet with the
Planning staff for further negotiations to meet their concerns_
��fs
Assistant Community Development Administrator Cozen reported that Council had set
a public hearing for C.U.P. No- 404 on September 18, 1984, providing time for the
applicant to meet with the adjacent property owners in an effort to resolve any
differences. The neighbors requested the westerly alley not be vacated and the
building be set back more than the 33 feet from the property lines as was recommended
by the Planning Commission. Prior to the public hearing on September 18, 1984, the
applicant met with the neighbors and discussed a proposal to remove the second story, t;i�i�IX
{I
X.P. 404 The public hearing was continued to allow further discussion, Several meetings have
been held between the staff and the applicant's representative and the neighbors, ��'}'t b�
cQueen although there was not a joint meeting with all parties present, The applicant has
evelopmept prepared drawings precisely showing the new proposals which meet applicable codes
and removes the second story unit facing Mrs. Wilson's property thereby moving the (�
second story to 50 to 70 feet from the south property line. Eight balconies facing
the west near Mrs. Goodwin's property were also removed. The Goodwins and
Mrs. Wilson have prepared a sketch showing what they wished accomplished with the �,�,i ,
loss of only one unit. An elevator, laundry room, and hallway rearrangements would
also be needed. The applicant does not like these impacts, and a mutually agreeable
decision has not been reached, Mr, Cozen concluded his report stating the applicant
has gone beyond the Planning Commission's recommendation in an attempt to satisfy
the neighbors' concerns for privacy and to reduce the apparent proximity of the
structure; therefore, staff recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit No, 404.
Mayor Beswick declared the meeting open for this continued public hearing. Pat
Meyer, representing the applicant, reviewed his meetings with the neighbors and
Planning me staff,
o f, Heith stated they have each meetitr ed to address the neighbors' concerns but
Margaret Wilson, 347 East Cypress Avenue, pointed out the only projection on the
buildingfacing her property now has a balcony that sticks out over her bedroom and
o P P Y Y
that there will still be ground floor tenants invading her privacy. She felt she and
the Goodwins had steadily decreased their demands but that the developer clung to
the 33-foot setback. She urged Council support to allow her and the Goodwins to
maintain their homes as an oasis in the concrete wasteland.
Mr. Dave Goodwin expressed his disappointments and felt Proposition "R" was being
circumvented with this project. He thought they were asking very little of the 0
developer and that any concessions would be appreciated. ""z"",t

During the lengthy discussion, Vice Mayor Johnson expressed his concern that if this
project is not built, a more conventional project would be two stories and closer to
itr Ef tf , their property lines, and the neighbors would then be appealing to Council again when
lityyNy� P P Y g PP g g
�,�rayl Council would not be able to help. He asked Mrs. Wilson if she had any concerns with
.......sythe location of the swimming pool and she responded she did not. Councilman Larsen
commended Messers. McQueen and Meyer for their efforts. Councilman Martinez asked
for an explanation why the entire project could not simply be, moved eight feet.
'ytry; (ij Mr. Meyer responded that the developer has tried to meet the neighbors' concerns
only to be met with more concerns, and that it is now a matter of principle. Councilman
t �
Martinez commended the developer for his concessions, but felt the situation should
ai 11s,� be worked out between the concerned parties. Mayor Beswick commented it was
rr >1l befuddling to Council why we are doing this. It was a consensus that developers
1Ai�� should talk with their adjacent neighbors early in the preparation of their plans.
Council briefly recessed at 8:20 P.M. and reconvened at 8:310 P.M.
Mrs. Pat Serrano, 614 Alvarado Street, strongly urged that the plans be changed
C.U,P. 404 to allow kitchens in the units, pointing out how important the availability of these
�IS ail , facilities are to allow senior citizens to remain active and independent. Vice Mayor
�trjtt. McQueen Johnson agreed with her, and thought Proposition "R" may have precipitated this but
Development that it would be an item to address at the Proposition "R" workshop on October 16,
1984.
