TYPE II PUBLIC HEARINGS
PLANNING ACTION 96-010
REQUEST FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A ONE-UNIT ADDITION TO
THE TRAVELLER'S ACCOMMODATION LOCATED AT 570 SlSKIYOU
BOULEVARD
APPLICANT: LAURA AND LAURENCE SHREWSBURY
Site Visits and Ex Parte Contacts
Site visits were made by all.
STAFF REPORT
Harris reported that this action was initially approved as a Type I but because of
design issues that came up before the Historic Commission, the action was called up
for public hearing. Since that time, the applicant has submitted new elevations that the
Historic Commission found acceptable. The applicant proposes to use the new south
side of the building as a fourth guest room. The applicant qualifies for one off-street
parking credit. Staff's main concern is the large uninterrupted rear wall of the south
side addition and have therefore added Condition 6.
Jarvis wondered why previously the applicant could have received a Certificate of
Occupancy with no fixed windows. Harris did not know what they agreed to before
but that by adding a Condition that no Certificate of Occupancy could be issued until
the windows were installed, that should take care of the problem. Knox said that
because of past problems, Staff will be keeping a closer eye on the new work.
PUBLIC HEARING
No one came forth to speak.
COMMISSIONERS DISCUSSION AND MOTION
Jarvis moved to approve PA95-010 with an added Condition 6 that the windows be
installed before a C of O is issued.
TYPE I PLANNING ACTIONS
PLANNING ACTION 95-017
REQUEST FOR A MINOR LAND PARTITION TO DIVIDE A LOT INTO THREE

PLANNING ACTION 95-018
REQUEST FOR A REAR YARD VARIANCE TO CONSTRUCT A ONE CAR, SINGLE
STORY GARAGE THREE FEET FROM THE REAR PROPERTY LINE INSTEAD OF
THE REQUIRED TEN FEET AT 330 LAUREL STREET.
APPLICANT: BRINT & LAUREEN BORGILT
Would this qualify for a Variance if living space were being required? What happens if
this unit is converted to a living space or rental unit? What steps need to be taken?
Knox will check with the City Attorney.
This action was approved.
