Councilmember Heinsheimer moved that 1Zesolution No. 95-13 be received and filed.
Councilmember Lay expressed concern regarding the proposed access to the proposed
stable and corral area. He stated that the location does not meet the requirement of the
Municipal Code since it is less than fifty feet from the proposed guest house. Discussion
ensued regarding the proposed access and its apparent conflict with the Municipal Code
requirement that vehicular access be provided to stables and corrals. Councilmember Lay
suggested that the Planning Commission may need to re-review this matter.
In response to Mayor Pro Tem Murdock, Principal Planner LJngar stated that the applicants
have indicated that they may not want to build a stable and corral area at this time. Mayor
Pro Tem Murdock expressed concern regarding the applicants' request for Site Plan
Review to grade the lower portion of the lot for a future stable and corral. She stated that if
the applicants do not intend to construct their stable at this time, pre-grading would not be
permitted.
Staff was directed to review the location of the guest house as it relates to the vehicular
access provided for the future stable and the plans regarding the grading for the future
stable. It was suggested that this may have to be re-reviewed by the Planning Commission.
