Mooresville Planning Commission, March 11, 2021 Tech Meeting of the previous week. Mr Crouch believed another individual had committed to representing him, and apologized for not attending. Mark Taylor asked about parking, as there are 12 spaces designated but no spaces for guest parking. Mr. Crouch stated that the RI standard is 2 spaces per unit, so he requested two parking spaces per unit, six on each side, so he would not have to request a variance. He mentioned that guest parking would probably be the same for the other surrounding residential units, which is parking on the street or in the alley. Mark Taylor asked the question if it were problematic to drive over the sidewalk to get to the property. Tim Bennet replied that it was not a problem in that neighborhood. Mr. Crouch stated that one unit would face Franklin and would be consistent with the 30 -foot setback from Franklin, and give the unit adequate space for 10 - foot buffering. Robert Allenbaugh asked about bedroom and square footage of the units. Mr. Crouch responded that the middle unit of each building is a 1 bedroom with a minimum of 700 square feet, and the two outer units of each building are 2 -bedroom units of 800 square feet. Jeff Dieterlen asked if there would be a request for variance on the buffer, and Mr. Crouch responded yes. He reviewed R3 standards and saw they were blank for buffers. Taking into account the setbacks of the surrounding existing homes he would request a buffer of 13 feet off the west parcel line, and intends to plant evergreens to accommodate structure styles and privacy. Jeff Dieterlen called for additional comments or questions from the public or the Planning Commission, and then reminded the Planning Commission that the recommendation to the Town Council should be based on the Comprehensive Plan, and consistent with neighboring properties. Mark Taylor made a motion for an unfavourable recommendation to the Town Council, Perry King seconded and the motion passed with a unanimous vote. The petition will go to the Town Council on April 6rn Tim Bennett reported 44 permits and 79 inspections. Jeff Dieterlen called for new business, then old business then in their absence, an adjournment motion. Josh Brown made the motion for adjournment, Mark Taylor seconded and the meeting adjourned with a unanimous vote at 8:57 pm. President Secretary
