Gatewoods 3 Plat the necessary grading for Gatewoods 3n Plat. Estimates are for a cut of 31, 219
cubic yards and an estimated fill of 40, 727 cubic yards. This indicates the
necessity of 9,508 cubic yards to be imported into the site. The plans submitted
indicate encroachment upon property to the south of NW 50 Street, which is
not owned by the applicant. This needs to be addressed and proof of permission
submitted to City staff.
Staff recommendations:
1) Grading activities would take place only between the hours of 7:00 am
to 5:00 pm, M -F, (possibly Saturday) and city staff must be notified 24
hours in advance of the grading.
2) A surety must be put in place for the damage of repair of City streets
and an amount to restore the site if grading activities permanently cease.
3) Signage must be placed at areas designated by City staff.
4) Before grading, all erosion fencing must be in place. Staff recommends
seed and mulch on all disturbed areas within 14 days after disturbance.
Considering the close proximity to Jumping Branch Creek, staff is
requesting the use of sediment basins to ensure compliance with
NPDES and APWA 5600 requirements.

Snyder asked if the property encroachment issue has to be resolved before they
could proceed. Miles responded yes. Commissioner Hurt asked how long it
would take to grade that many cubic feet of dirt and was told by staff that it
would be 3 to 4 weeks. Mayor Rose asked how many loads there would be and
Commissioner Hurt responded, "475." Rose also asked if there would be an
agreement in place with Gatewoods like the one proposed for Briarcliff. Miles
said yes, but there would be some differences because the scope of the projects
is different.
Mark Salyer questioned the buffer. Salyer was also worried about run off when
the area continues to develop. He said the creek got rather high during the recent
heavy rain. Miles said the rain he was referring to was extremely heavy, 6 " -7"
in 1 hour. It was equivalent to a more than a 100 year storm. Everyone across
the country designs to the requirements of the 100 year storm. Miles also said
that water would have to come over the top of I -635 to their north to pose a
flood threat.
Commissioner Snoderley moved to accept their plans for grading contingent on
resolving the issues of: property encroachment, surety agreement between
Woods and the City, and the use of sediment basins. Commissioner Bowman
seconded. All voted in favor. Commissioner Salyer did not vote, having
recused himself.
Building Permit: P & J P & J Building Services, 4409 NW Pawnee, is requesting to replace an existing
Building Services — 4409 deck with a 12' x 18' wood deck. In August, a permit to build a metal deck was
NW Pawnee approved but the contract with the company was subsequently cancelled. They
are now asking to build a pine deck instead. Commissioner Salyer asked if there
would be another permit fee and Miles said that Codes Officer Haynes had
waived the fees and transferred the previous building permit to the revised
project. Commissioner Hurt moved to approve the permit and Commissioner
Snoderley seconded. All voted in favor and the motion passed.
Change of Use: River City The applicant, John Hurtak, is proposing to put in a fresh produce market at
Fresh Fruit & Vegetable - 4403 NW Gateway that would operate year round. During the growing season
4403 NW Gateway they would sell produce grown by local farmers and, in the off season, they
would sell produce from growers in California. The market would also sell
seasonal flowers.
Hurtak proposes to gut the building and apply fresh paint. He has hired a sign
company that designs signs for some of the big chain grocers and said the sign
would be tasteful and would be on the building only, i.e., not a monument sign.
He will landscape and will provide for the necessary 6 parking spaces with one
being ADA. He indicated that the business would be open 6 days a week,
closed on Sunday and that business hours would vary according to the seasons.
Commissioner Hurt asked what he thought he would spend on the remodel and
Hurtak replied around $7,000- $10,000. Commissioner Snoderley asked if
Hurtak had owned any other businesses to which Hurtack replied that he had
owned several.
Commissioner Salyer made a motion to grant the change of use for this property
and Commissioner Snoderley seconded. All voted in favor.
