MEMORANDUM

TO:                  Mayor and Town Council

FROM:            W. Calvin Horton, Town Manager

SUBJECT:       Wilshire Place– Application for Special Use Permit Modification

DATE:             June 11, 2001

INTRODUCTION

On May 7, 2001, the Town Council closed the Public Hearing on Wilshire Place Special Use Permit Modification application for a multi-family residential development. After discussing the application, the Council deferred action on the proposed development until tonight’s meeting.

The proposed site is located in the 100 block of South Estes Drive between East Franklin Street and Willow Drive. Adoption of Resolutions A, B, C, and D would approve a Special Use Permit Modification to authorize construction of a 12-unit residential building on the 1.4-acre site. Resolution E would deny the application.

This package of materials has been prepared for the Town Council’s consideration, and is organized as follows:

¨      Cover Memorandum: Provides staff and applicant responses to issues raised at the Council’s meeting on May 7, 2001, and offers recommendations for Council action, including resolutions of approval and denial.

¨      Attachments:  Provides background on the development proposal and comments on issues raised during the Public Hearing, correspondence received during and following the Public Hearing, and a copy of the April 18 and May 7 Council memoranda and related attachments.

Background

On May 7, 2001, the Council closed the Public Hearing for consideration of the Wilshire Place Special Use Permit Modification application, to authorize construction of a multi-family residential building on a 1.4-acre site. Questions regarding the application were raised after the May 7 Public Hearing was closed, and action is being continued tonight to receive applicant and staff responses to these questions. We note that, on April 18th, the Council determined that contiguous property would be defined as those properties adjacent to this site.

This is an application for a Special Use Permit Modification. The Development Ordinance requires the Town Manager to conduct an evaluation of this Special Use Permit Modification application, to present a report to the Planning Board, and to present a report and recommendation to the Town Council. We have reviewed the application and evaluated it regarding its compliance with the standards and regulations of the Town’s Development Ordinance; we have presented a report to the Planning Board; and on May 7 we submitted our report and preliminary recommendation to the Council.

The standard for review and approval of a Special Use Permit application involves consideration of four findings. The Council must make all four of these findings in order to approve a Special Use Permit:

1)         That the use or development is located, designed, and proposed to be operated so as to maintain or promote the public health, safety, and general welfare.

2)         That the use or development complies with all required regulations and standards of this chapter, including all applicable provisions of Articles 12, 13, and 14 and with all other applicable regulations;

3)         That the use or development is located, designed, and proposed to be operated so as to maintain or enhance the value of contiguous property, or that the use or development is a public necessity; and

4)         That the use or development conforms with the general plans for the physical development of the Town as embodied in this chapter and in the Comprehensive Plan.

The May 7 Public Hearing memorandum discussed the four findings as related to this application, including both supporting and opposing evidence for each finding. We have provided the Public Hearing materials as an attachment to this memorandum.

If, after consideration of the evidence submitted at the Public Hearing, the Council decides that it can make each of the four findings, the Development Ordinance directs that the Special Use Permit Modification shall then be approved. If the Council decides that the evidence does not support making one or more of the findings, then the application cannot be approved and, accordingly, should be denied by the Council.

KEY ISSUE

The following key issue was discussed by the Council at the May 7 Public Hearing:

The applicant offered to provide a $10,000 payment-in-lieu to Orange Community Housing Corporation rather than providing affordable housing on-site. Council members moved to defer consideration of the application as presented to allow the applicant to further address the provision of affordable housing and recommended that the applicant return with a revised proposal.

The adopted Comprehensive Plan encourages providing 15% affordable units in developments greater than 5 units, which in this case would be 1.8 units of the 12-unit development. In the attached letter the applicant provides a revised proposal. The applicant offers a $36,000 payment-in-lieu of providing a 15% affordable housing component on site. The payment-in-lieu would be provided to Orange Community Housing Corporation. The applicant and Robert Dowling, the Executive Director of Orange Community Housing Corporation, have provided letters discussing in detail their support of this financial arrangement in-lieu of affordable housing (see Attachments 7 and 8).

Staff Comment: We have included a stipulation in Resolutions A, B, C, and D, based on the applicant’s proposal that a $36,000 payment-in-lieu be made to the Orange Community Housing Corporation, prior to issuance of the first Certificate of Occupancy.

Recommendations

Advisory Board recommendations are summarized below.

Planning Board Recommendation: The Planning Board reviewed this application on April 3, 2001 and voted 9-0 to recommend that the Council approve the application without reference to a specific resolution. Please see the attached Summary of Planning Board Action, part of Attachment 9.

Transportation Board Recommendation: The Transportation Board reviewed this application on April 3, 2001, and voted 6-0 to recommend that the Council approve the application with the adoption of Resolution A. Please see the attached Summary of Transportation Board Action, part of Attachment 9.

Community Design Commission Recommendation: The Community Design Commission reviewed this application on March 21, 2001, and voted 8-1 to recommend that the Council approve the application without reference to a specific resolution. Please see the attached Summary of Community Design Commission Action to the Council, part of Attachment 9.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board Recommendation: The Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board reviewed this application on April 10, 2001, and voted 4-1 to recommend that the Council approve the application without reference to a specific resolution. Please see the attached Summary of Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board Action to the Council, part of Attachment 9.

Parks and Recreation Commission: The Parks and Recreation Commission voted unanimously (7-0) to recommend that the recreation requirements for this application be met with a payment-in-lieu. Please see the attached Summary of Parks and Recreation Commission Action to the Council, part of Attachment 9.

Manager’s Revised Recommendation: Based on our evaluation of the application, our conclusion is that the application complies with standards and regulations of the Development Ordinance. Accordingly, we recommend that the application be approved with the adoption of Resolution A, the Manager’s revised recommendation.

Based on the revised offer made by the applicant subsequent to the Public Hearing, we have revised Resolutions A, B, C, and D to include the applicant’s most recent proposal:

·        The applicant has offered to provide a $36,000 payment-in-lieu of providing affordable housing on site to the Orange Community Housing Corporation. Stipulation #33 in Resolution A at the May 7 Council meeting made a similar payment-in-lieu offer for $10,000.

·        In accordance with the applicant’s May 7 offer, Stipulation #34 in Resolution A from the May 7 Council meeting required that the applicant donate the existing structure to Orange Community Housing Corporation, Habitat for Humanity, or a comparable provider, if possible. The applicant has been unable to find an interested low-income housing provider to whom the existing residential structure could be donated. We understand that the condition of the house and associated moving costs did not make it viable to move the structure. Stipulation #34 has been removed from Resolution A from the May 7 Council meeting.

Resolutions A, B, C, and D have been revised accordingly. These issues are discussed in Attachments 1, 7, and 8.

Resolution A would approve the application based on the recommendations of the Transportation Board.

Resolution B would approve the application based on the recommendations of the Planning Board.

Resolution C would approve the application based on the recommendations of the Community Design Commission and Parks and Recreation Commission.

Resolution D would approve the application based on the recommendations of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board.

Resolution E would deny the application.

Questions/Issues Raised at the May 7, 2001 Public Hearing

There was one key issue raised at the May 7 Public Hearing.

 

1.      AFFORDABLE HOUSING

At the May 7 Public Hearing the applicant offered to provide a $10,000 payment-in-lieu to Orange Community Housing Corporation rather than providing affordable housing on-site. The Council moved to defer consideration of the application as presented to allow the applicant to further address the provision of affordable housing.

The adopted Comprehensive Plan encourages providing 15% affordable units in developments greater than 5 units, which in this case would be 1.8 units of the 12-unit development. In the attached letter the applicant provides a revised proposal. The applicant offers a $36,000 payment-in-lieu of providing a 15% affordable housing component on site. The payment-in-lieu is provided to Orange Community Housing Corporation. The applicant and Robert Dowling, the Executive Director of Orange Community Housing Corporation, have provided letters discussing in detail their support of this financial arrangement in-lieu of affordable housing (see Attachments 7 and 8).

Staff Comment: We have included a stipulation in Resolutions A, B, C, and D based on the applicant’s proposal that a $36,000 payment-in-lieu be made to the Orange Community Housing Corporation. The stipulation will require that full $36,000 payment-in-lieu be donated to the OCHC prior to issuance of the first Certificate of Occupancy.
