MOSCOW CITY COUNCIL

SPECIAL MEETING

Monday, November 21, 2005
7:00 p.m.
City Hall Council Chambers
 206 East Third Street, Second Floor
The Moscow Mayor, City Council and staff welcome you to tonight's
meeting.  We appreciate and encourage public participation.  For regular
agenda items, an opportunity for public comment is sometimes provided
after the staff report.  However, the formality of procedures varies
with the purpose and subject of the agenda item; therefore, the Mayor
may exercise discretion in deciding when to allow public comment during
the course of the proceedings and limitations will be placed on the time
allowed for comments.  Citizens wishing to comment on business which is
not on the agenda will be provided the opportunity to do so as item
number 2 after the Consent Agenda.  If you plan to address the Council,
you will find a list of "Tips for Addressing the Council" on the table
outside the City Council Chambers.  Thank you for your interest in City
government.

C.           Lot Line Adjustment for Lang-Itani - Andrew Ackerman
Juergen Lang and Rafik Itani have requested an adjustment of a common
lot line between Lots 8 and 9 of Block 1, Rolling Hills 5th Addition or
2283 E. Sixth and 2265 E. Sixth.  The proposed lot line adjustment would
result in a net transfer of 836 sq. ft. from Lot 8 to Lot 9.  The
subject properties are both zoned Moderate Density Single Family
Residential (R-2), which is intended primarily for single family
residences and has a minimum lot size requirement of 7,000 sq. ft.  A
lot line adjustment, along the same property line for the same two lots
was approved by City Council in July, 2003.  However, the 2003
adjustment was never recorded, and as a result the legal description for
Lot 8, when it was sold to the current owner, did not reflect the 2003
adjustment. The City Building Department approved the construction of
the new home on Lot 9 with the understanding that the adjusted lot line
had been recorded as such. As it stands, the current lot line does not
meet the side yard setback minimum of five (5) feet for Lot 9.  If
accepted, the currently proposed adjustment would remedy the situation
caused earlier when the 2003 adjustment was not recorded, and will meet
all other applicable lot size and setback standards of the zoning
district for both lots.  Reviewed by the Public Works/Finance Committee
on November 14, 2005.
 
                  ACTION:  Approve lot line adjustment.
 
D.           RSVP Use Agreement - Dwight Curtis
Staff is requesting approval for renewal of tenant use agreement with
RSVP for 1912 Building space. This is a revision to the agreement that
was approved by the City Council on March 21, 2005 and would be
retroactive to April 1, 2005. Since the March 21st approval by the City
Council, the RSVP Board of Directors has requested that they only be
required to insure their office and storage room and not the "Senior
Center" room as previously required. The reason given is that RSVP only
coordinates the staff coverage of the Senior Room and does not actively
manage or control the room or activities within the Senior Room.  The
use period has not changed and is for 18 months, effective April 1, 2005
through September 30, 2006.  The City's insurance policy adequately
covers the Senior Room.  Reviewed by the Administrative Committee on
November 14, 2005.
 
         ACTION:  Approve Use Agreement.
 
2.   Public Comment Period - For members of the Public to speak to the
Council regarding matters NOT on the Agenda and not currently pending
before the Planning and Zoning Commission or Board of Adjustment, please
state your name and address for the record and limit remarks to three
minutes.  Time limit 15 minutes.
 
3.   Request for Amendment of PUD - The Silos - Joel Plaskon
Rob Davis and Brenda von Wandruszka have requested amendments to their
Planned Unit Development permit, which was approved by the Planning and
Zoning Commission on March 24, 2004.  The permit was for a mixed use
development in the R-4 Zoning District and located at 695 Styner Avenue.
The applicants are requesting that they be allowed to utilize existing
parking in the adjacent church parking lot in lieu of building a new,
on-site parking lot for the project.  They propose to use the area
originally approved for parking as recreational open space.   They have
also obtained an easement from the church for the proposed parking.  A
second PUD amendment request is to change the type of siding on the
buildings from hardiplank to metal.  The Planning and Zoning Commission
reviewed these requested amendments and unanimously recommended
conditional approval.  The recommended condition of approval is that the
applicants provide parking location identification signage on the
private property of The Silos site in a prominent location as viewed
from Travois Way. Parking identification signage would also be required
at each of the two proposed rows of parking in the church parking lot.
The applicants have received a smart growth award for this project which
was given considerate of removal of the parking lot and the proposed
change to the type of siding on the buildings.
 
ACTION:  Approve PUD amendment; or reject PUD amendment; or take such
other action deemed appropriate.
