6. PUBLIC FORUM
There were none present to address the Commission.
7. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Case No. ZOA-03-16: An ordinance amending Section 26-109 of the Wheat Ridge
I'V, Code of Laws concerning public hearing notice and procedure.
Meredith Reckert reviewed the staff report. Staff recommended approval of the case for the
following reasons.
1. The proposed change will be consistent with the revised land use process chart
reviewed by Planning Commission on September 4, 2003.
2. The requirement for pre-application neighborhood meetings will apply for zone changes
and planned development outline development plan approvals.
3. The proposed modifications are consistent with the revised special use procedures.
Chair McNAMEE asked to hear from members of the public.
Charles Durbin
3703 Ames Street
Mr. Durbin was sworn in by Chair McNAMEE. He expressed concern that the proposed
ordinance with changes to the neighborhood meeting requirement would eliminate another
vehicle for informing nei~hbors about what is going on their neighborhoods. He cited the
Walgreen's project at 38 and Sheridan where he said many of the neighbors were not aware of
the project until they saw signs posted in the neighborhood.
Meredith Reckert explained that posting procedures would not change if this ordinance is
approved. Neighborhood meetings are noticed by letter to surrounding property owners.
Robert Wallace
3749 Sheridan
Mr. Wallace stated from the audience that he agreed with Mr. Durbin's comments.
Commissioner McMILLIN stated he would vote in favor of the ordinance because it is the
consequence of previous decisions but expressed concern about future streamlining procedures
that may take more authority from Planning Commission or to cut back on requirements of
development applications.
Meredith Reckert stated that she is not aware of any other changes planned to the land use
processes.
It was moved by Commissioner McMILLIN and seconded by Commissioner PLUMMER
to recommend approval of an ordinance amending Section 26-109 of the Wheat Ridge
Code of Laws concerning public hearing notice and procedure. The motion passed 5-0
with Commissioners WEISZ and WITT absent.
