........ e IV. Public Hearing--That Portion of Lewis Street located between Jackson and Adams Streets (Safley) (SV 76-9) Unanimously recommended by Planning Commission July 11, 1977. Jim Saul, Planning Department, referred Councilors to a map of the area. He said it should be noted the property south of the street vacation is Sladden Park. The City had required the adjacent property owner to the west to submit the vacation request. The specific purpose of the request is to enhance Sladden Park. He said the Planning Commission had recommended street vacation based on two conditions: 1) Retention of a public utility easement for a sewer on the Lewis Street right-of-way; and 2) Construction of a driveway to Tax Lot 1401 and a turnaround area immediately south of Tax Lot 1401 by the developer of the River1s Edge PUD. Public Hearing was held with no testimony presented.

Manager noted the Planned Unit Development Regulation Code amendments had been discussed May 9,1977, by Council. The Planning Commission had recommended that PUD regulations be revised to transfer review of both diagrammatic and preliminary applications to a hearings offici al . The Council took tentative action to transfer review of preli- minary application to a hearings official with diagrammatic applications still being reviewed by the Planning Commission. The matter had been considered by the Planning Commission, with three alternatives recommended. Manager said staff would prepare an ordinance for a Monday night meeting for whichever alternative was chosen by Council. Mr. Saul reported that July 18 the Planning Commission reviewed the tentative action of the City Council and the majority vote preferred to keep both stages together and both to be reviewed by a hearings official. The Commission's second choice would be that both stages of the PUD reg- ulations be heard by the Planning Commission; the third choice would be to have the diagrammatic stage heard by the Planning Commission and preliminary stage heard by the hearings official. He said at this point - it would be helpful to have City Council give final direction for the appropriate ordinance. Minutes 9/7/77--5 ~19
