Planning Commission Recommendation To approve the after-the-fact conditional use permit for Phillip and Darcy Otto for the property located at 4116 Ilighwoixl Road involving land alterations not authorized under a building permit for the new construction.

Approval of this conditional use permit is based on the following findings: 1. The final grading plan approved by the City Engineer has been found to have no impact on the adjacent properties as a result of the furiher excavation of the street yard and the placement of the additional fill to the side and rear of the residence. 2 John Gerliardson has reviewed the second curb cut and approved the location and use of the second curb cut finding an improvement in safety based on the narrowness of Highwood Road and the number of dwelling units served by the roadway. 3. Land alteraiiom will not involve or encroach the adjacent property to the east. 4. The proposed additional fill placed within the north yard of the property will not impact the stormwater facility installed to the east.
