TOWN OF FOUNTAIN HILLS STAFF REPORT Meeting Date: 05/20/2020 Meeting Type: Planning and Zoning Commission Agenda Type: Submitting Department: Development Services Prepared by: John Wesley, Development Services Director Staff Contact Information: John Wesley, Development Services Director Request to Planning and Zoning Commission (Agenda Language): RECONSIDERATION OF a request for a Special Use Permit to allow operation of a hospital between 11 pm and 7 am on an approximately 5.74 acre parcel generally located at the northwest corner of N. Saguaro Boulevard and E. Trevino Drive (AKA 9700 N. Saguaro Boulevard; APN# 176-10-811) in the C-1 Neighborhood Commercial and Professional Zoning District. SU 2020-01 Staff Summary (Background) At the Commission's regular meeting on May 11, 2020, the Commission held hearing and considered the request for approval of a Special Use Permit (SUP) to allow the medical facility proposed for the property at the northwest corner of Saguaro Boulevard and Trevino Drive to operate between the hours of 11 pm and 7 am. Following the hearing, a motion was made to continue the case to a special meeting on Monday, July 6. Following the Commission meeting staff reviewed the impact of the delay on the total timeline for the development of this facility. Because Council takes a break in July and most of August, the SUP would not be considered by Council until that time. The delay would create further challenges for the applicant to address the requests of the neighbors and requirements of the approval as more of the project gets constructed. It would also leave all parties in a state of not knowing the final outcome for a couple of months rather than having resolution at this time. For these reasons, staff is asking the Commissioners to reconsider the previous motion and schedule the further consideration of the SUP at their regular meeting in June. Over the last week staff has had the opportunity to schedule the steps that would need to be accomplished to have reviewed plans and a revised staff report to the Commission for the June 8 meeting. The applicant has agreed to those time requirements and has already begun to address the issues raised at the last Commission hearing. A written statement regarding their withdrawal of the variance for the wall, a commitment to enlarge the ambulance drop-off eliminate the need for backing, moving a sign, and adding landscaping has been submitted. They have also submitted a revised landscape plan for staff and neighbors to review. Because the motion made at the May 11, 2020 meeting continued the case to a specific date, the only way to change the date is for the Commission to meet and change the date. The formal way to do this is for a member of the Commission to first make a motion to reconsider the previous motion. Once that motion has been made, seconded, and approved, then a Commissioner may make a new motion. In this case, it is the intent that the Commission would move to continue the meeting to June 8. By doing so the Council can consider the case on June 16, 2020. Related Ordinance, Policy or Guiding Principle N/A Risk Analysis N/A Recommendation(s) by Board(s) or Commission(s) N/A Staff Recommendation(s) Staff recommends the Commission vote to reconsider the previous motion and then approve a continuance to your regular meeting on June 8, 2020. SUGGESTED MOTION MOVE to reconsider the action taken on case SU 2020-01 at the May 11, 2020 P&Z Commission meeting. MOVE to continue case SU 2020-01 to the regular P&Z Commission meeting on June 8, 2020.
