Major points of discussion included: Overall Impressions of the Development: The Commission expressed confidence with the development team in place and acknowledged the unique aspects of the proposal. They expressed concerns about the single-family homes, and the duplexes to a lesser extent, being disjointed from the development as a whole. They also were concerned about the isolation of this development from the rest of the resort. Amending the PUD: In response to many of the public comments expressing concern with a proposal to amend the PUD, the Commission stated that the PUD is a living document, is modified from time to time, and they are not concerned with considering an application to amend the PUD, as long as it fits the purpose and intent and criteria for a PUD amendment. Single-Family Homes: The Planning Commission expressed concern with the disturbance of steep slopes, wetlands, and requested variances in order to develop the single-family homes as proposed. Vitality of the PUD: The Commission expressed concerns about rezoning a parcel when there are other approved (and vacant) hotel sites at Center Village. The Commission stated that businesses at Center Village struggle and questioned the viability of this development so far from the resort center both for its success and lost opportunity to bring customers into Center Village. Exclusivity: The Commission expressed concern about the exclusivity and isolation of this development within the PUD. The applicant responded to this as well as Staff’s concern about the privatization of this area that hotel lobbies are essentially public spaces and stated on record that the A-Lift could/would never be privatized. Connectivity within PUD: The Planning Commission emphasized the need to see bike and pedestrian connections between this development and the rest of the PUD. The applicant acknowledged this need and reiterated that a final access design will impact the design of these connections and which are forthcoming. Height and Visual Impact: The majority of the Planning Commissioners expressed concerns about the height and visual impact of this development and emphasized the need to see more analysis of these impacts with the pending submittal. The Commission requested that the applicant show the height of a particular spruce tree near the tee box of hole 15 as a reference point for height. Public Benefit: The Commission stated that they currently do not see any public benefits associated with this proposal and that this is a concern. PUBLIC COMMENT The Chair told the public that while this is not a public hearing, out of respect to the members of the public who were still present, that the Commission would entertain public comment. Commissioner Skupien did state that they Commission had read all the public comments received via email. Three members of the public spoke, 2 were opposed and 1 was supportive of the development.
