His client is considering a package liquor store on the Highway #70 frontage, with a motor lodge, restaurant and lounge and swimning pool on the re- mainder of the property. The motor lodge is tentatively planned for 3 to 4 stories, with 48 to 60 units. The restaurant, pool, and lounge would be in conjunction with this use. Mr. Parc h en cited a letter from Mr. Beryl Wallace, Chief Building Inspector, dated December 2, 1964, which would give approval to the liquor store and restaurant; however, prior to issuing a Building Permit, approval by the Planning Commission would be needed for the motor lodge. Mr. Parchen stated they feel the use would be compatible with the surrounding area; there is a restaurant and an apartment house existing in the immediate vicinity. A rough sketch was presented to the Commission for their consideration. The motor-lodge would have units for "transients", also units for over-night guests, and kitche nette units. He felt such a use would be an asset to the community when the proposed center on the Park Site is completed. Mr. Rice questioned the term "transients"; he stated that a complex on the order of the Continental Denver provided for transients, but questioned whether it could be termed a "motel". Mr. Parchen replied that any major lodge had facilities for permanent residents, i.e., someone staying six to eight months. He felt it would be classed as a motor lodge, but further stated that in the event the zoning should ever be changed to permit apartment houses, the construction would be such that the use would readily serve both purposes. Mr. Fullerton questioned the area ava i lable for parking. Parking would need to be provided for the liquor store, the restaurant and lounge, as well as parking for guests at the motor lodge. This was discussed by the Commission, and it was their concensus that additional land would have to be purchased to permit all three proposed uses and provide the parking standards as set forth in the 1963 Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Rice further questioned the permit to sell at retail from the liquor store. He felt this was not the actual intent of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, as any retail outlet has a stock which could be termed "warehousing" or storage of materials. He further pointed out that liquor licenses would have to be obtained for both the retail liquor store and the lounge- restaurant use. The case was discussed. The Commission asked Mr. Parchen to provide them with additional detailed information on the proposed development. Mrs. Romans stated she felt very possibly the zoning to the south of Highway #70 to Kenyon, Bannock west to Santa Fe did need to be reconsidered. She stated a Land Use Map had been prepared of the area several months ag o , but that it c oul d be outdated. Discussion ensued. Rice moved: Fullerton seconded: The Planning Director be instructed to have the Land Use Map of the area north of West Kenyon Avenue, south of Highway #70, west of South Bannock Street, east of South Santa Fe Lane revised. The motion carried unanimously. V. PARKING MONOGRAPH CASE #23-64B Revised copies of the Parking Monograph were given members of the Commission. The revisions were summarize d by Planning Director Romans, and members were asked to thoroughly study it prior to the meeting of December 9, 1964. A list of proposed regular and special meetings was discussed. No action was discussed. The Planning Director commended the Planning Staff and Mrs. Esther Woodhead, Printing and Office Supply Clerk, for the i r cooperation in preparation of the Parking Monograph. VI. ANTIQUE CAR STORAGE. Mr. Rice stated it had come to his attention that an antique car storage operation was planned for 2100 South Raritan. He asked if anyone else had any information on this proposed use? Brief discussion ensued; no action was taken. Fullerton noved: Rice seconded: The meeting be adjourned. The motion carried unanimously, and the meeting was declared adjourned at 10:00 P. M. Respectfully submitted, Gertrude G.

JOSEPH BERENBAUM SUBDIVISION Yale-Tejon Industrial Park Page 811 CASE #22-64A Mr. Joseph Berenbaum was present for the consideration of the Preliminary Plat of his pro- posed subdivision of fue area b ou nded by South Tejon Street on the east, West Yale Avenue on the north, South Zuni Street on the west, and West Bates Avenue on the south, with the exception of the areas on which the Canada Dry and Natkin Plants are located, and the City of Englewood property on which a Fire Station and the water storage tower are situate d . Mr. Berenbaum requested a change in the Preliminary Plat to eliminate utility easements between lot lines, and permission to have utilities installed in the street as was permitted in the Englewood Industrial Park across the street on Tejon. He stated this had been dis- cussed with the utilities companies, and no objection was voiced to this plan. Mr. Berenbaum discussed dedication for proposed streets, both within the subdivision and on its perimeter; he stated that a 40' right-of-way would be dedicated on Yale, a 60' right-o f-way for both Vallejo and Amherst, and a 30' right of-way on Tejon and Bates. Discussion ensued. Mrs. Romans pointed out that the properties to the south of West Bates Avenue were developed, and asked if it was conceivable that these property owners would dedicate a 30' right-of-way to give proper access? Mr. Byrne stated that there would be 60' streets to serve their de- velopment, and he felt that a 30' dedication on West Bates would give ade q uate access. Further brief discussion followed. Rice moved: Touchton seconded: The Preliminary Plat of the Yale-Tejon Industrial Park Subdivision, amended, be received and easement verification be obtained by the normal procedure. The motion carried unanimously. The subdividers were reminded of some of the requi r e ments t o be met; i.e. the list of adjacent property owners to be submitted. The procedure to be followed in the filing of any Final Plat with the County Clerk was discussed briefly by the members of the Commission. According to Ordinance, this is to be done by "the City" after the filing fee is paid, not by a developer. "The City" would be interpreted to be the City Clerk. IV . MR. REX GARRETT South of Stanford Avenue West of City Ditch REZONING CASE #26-64 R-1-C to I-1 Mr. Garrett was present to discuss the possible rezoning of the area south of West Stanford Avenue, west of the City Ditch, and north of West Tufts Avenue. This area is pre s ent l y zoned R-1-C and he is interested in an I -1 Zoning. Mr. Garrett pointed out that this area is low, and not particularly suited for single-family development. Discussion ensued; Mr. Garrett was advised to make regular application for rezoning through the Planning Office. V. DENVER COTTAGE COURT 2973 South Santa Fe CONDITIONAL USE Mobile Home Park CASE #27-64 Mrs. Romans read a memorandum from Chief Building Inspector Wallace ·stating that the owner of the Cottage Court wishes to remove existing sub-standard cabins and replace these with mobile home spaces. Mobile Home Parks are a Conditional Use in an I-1 Zone District. A penciled sketch was submitted by Mr. Jones, owner of the .Court, and this was shown Commission members for their consideration. Discussion ensued. Touchton moved: The Planning Commission recommend to the Chief Building Inspector the proposed Conditional Use of a mobile home park at 2973 South Santa Fe Drive be approved subject to compliance with the Mobile Home Park regulations. Further discussion ensued. Mr. Fullerton asked that Mr. Jones appear before the Commission t o explain his plan mo re fully, or present a detailed plan to the Commission for their consideration. Mr. Touchton withdrew his motion. Fullerton moved: Parkinson seconded: The Planning Director be directed to ask the Chief Building Inspectorr to obtain a more defined plan showing location of cabins to be razed, proposed mobile home spaces, etc. The motion carried unanimously. VI. AREA SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 70, WEST OF BANNOCK TO SANTA FE, NORTH OF KENYON AVENUE. A progress report on the updating of the Land Use in this area was given.
