Planning staff said the phase includes a mix of townhomes and small single‑family lots, a public access easement for a trail along Rose Creek that will connect to the city’s trail network, and onsite stormwater facilities. Staff reported only minor redline technical corrections remain and that the developer has used a consistent engineering team across Mountain Ridge phases, which staff said should speed final approvals.

Tim (planning staff) told the commission that the trail will be created with a public‑access easement and will be maintained by the homeowners association (HOA), and reiterated a previously agreed condition that certain road connections must be completed before occupancy thresholds are granted. “They’ve gotta make that connection to one of those roads before they can get occupancy of 30 units,” Tim said, noting the fire department’s access and occupancy requirements.

Brandon Watson, representing Edge Homes, told the commission he had no additional comments beyond the staff report and that the project team is prepared to address the minor redlines.

Commissioners asked about broader connectivity and the pedestrian bridge referenced in earlier discussion; staff replied bridge plans were under review and that trail connections were moving forward.

Commissioner Mathison moved to approve PLZ‑25‑4004 Mountain Ridge Phase 27 with conditions 1–7; Commissioner Cannon seconded. The planning commission voted unanimously to approve the final plat. Staff will track the remaining redlines and verify the road and trail connections before issuing final plat recordation and occupancy releases per the conditions.

Staff described the request as an infill rezone that would formalize existing development patterns and align the general plan designation with proposed zoning. Tim (planning staff) said several parcels in the area already function like R3 lots despite the RR22 zoning and that rezoning would allow a future private‑lane subdivision to create four or five additional single‑family lots while leaving the Dansy family residence on its own parcel.

Tim explained the practical differences: RR22 includes half‑acre minimums and animal‑rights allowances; R3’s principal distinctions are smaller lot sizes and no automatic animal rights. He also noted that fencing and other subdivision standards would be finalized in subsequent subdivision review. Tim cited the city standard that requires a 6‑foot masonry wall between animal‑rights and non‑animal‑rights properties, but said a final fence decision will occur with the subdivision application.

Applicant Alan Prince, representing the development group MP & G, described the proposal as a “clean” infill that fits adjacent recent R3 subdivisions. Prince said the resulting lots would be large (net lots in the 13,000–15,000 square‑foot range after road area is accounted for) and that the proposal would create a private lane meeting city standards.

A nearby resident, Anna Davis, testified during public comment that she favors maintaining larger lot sizes in the neighborhood and asked that lot sizes not be smaller than an acre; staff and the applicant clarified the proposal would result in lots larger than 13,000 square feet but smaller than an acre.

Commission discussion touched on fencing requests submitted by a Dansy family member seeking an 8‑foot masonry fence along a shared property line; staff noted fence specifics will be handled at subdivision and that the city’s ordinance generally requires a 6‑foot masonry wall in certain animal‑rights adjacencies.

Commissioner Clough made the motion recommending approval of PLZ‑25‑4005 (Dansy 2025), to amend the general plan to low-density residential and rezone the parcels to R3 with a 14,000‑square‑foot minimum lot size. Commissioner Mathison seconded; the motion passed unanimously. The recommendation will be transmitted to City Council for final action; if council approves the rezoning, the developer will submit private‑lane and subdivision applications that will be noticed separately to neighbors within 300 feet.

The permit, filed as PLZ 20‑5‑2017, was approved unanimously after staff described the proposal and commissioners heard from the applicant and two nearby neighbors who had attended a demonstration of the proposed roaster.

Staff planner Lisa (last name not specified) told the commission the property is about 0.36 acres and that the applicant proposes to use up to 50% of a detached garage for business — the maximum accessory-building business use allowed by the city’s home‑occupation code. She said the code’s fixed standards prohibit home occupations that produce odors, smoke, dust or heat unless conditions can mitigate impacts.

“The home occupation shall not create or be associated with or produce odors, smoke, dust, heat fumes,” Lisa said, repeating the code language to underline the commission’s discretion to impose conditions. She added the particular roaster Mr. Henry plans to use is a specialty model designed for small shops and includes a filtration system; staff proposed a sample condition requiring equipment with filtration that prevents odors from reaching neighboring properties.

Applicant Jeremy Henry said the proposal is intended to fund a charity that provides free surgeries in other countries. “This is all being done to support the charity,” Henry said. He told commissioners he had run the roaster for several small experimental batches, invited neighbors to a demonstration and said he and attendees could not detect an odor outside the garage during those tests.

Two neighbors who live adjacent to or near the property addressed the commission during the public hearing. Brenda Hook, who identified her address as 3713 Shasta Circle, said she and her family spend time in their backyard and that her husband is sensitive to coffee aromas, but she said she attended the demonstration and did not detect roasting odors. “I attended the other evening for his demonstration, [and] I could not smell even the slightest hint of any of it,” Hook said.

Amy Goodrich, who said she lives directly next door, also said she attended the demonstration and did not detect an odor. “I was really impressed with how it was,” Goodrich said.

Commissioners discussed enforcement and remedies if neighbors later complain. Commissioner Cannon noted code-enforcement would investigate complaints and, if necessary, the matter could be brought back to the planning commission for further action. Lisa confirmed that is the typical enforcement path.

Commissioner Mathison made the motion to approve PLZ 20‑5‑2017 with conditions 1–8 (including a condition requiring use of roasting equipment with filtration that prevents odors from leaving the building). Commissioner Rushden seconded. The commission voted unanimously to approve the conditional use permit. The commission’s vote authorizes the home‑occupation permit under the cited conditions; the applicant must still comply with state and county health and agricultural requirements referenced by staff if retail food handling or shipping regulations apply.

Mr. Henry said he would be willing to further upgrade filtration or add additional enclosure measures if complaints occur. “I would absolutely be fine with doing everything I could to make that happen,” he told commissioners.

The commission noted the applicant’s outreach to neighbors and the demonstration he conducted. Staff will finalize the permit language and the applicant must pursue any required health‑department approvals before commencing retail operations that involve food handling or shipping.
