** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for an 84-lot single family residential subdivision on 15.41 acres within
the Skye Canyon Master Plan Area.
ISSUES
x This request is a partial resubmittal of a previously approved Tentative Map

(TMP-53908) due to the failure to record a Final Map by the required deadline.
ANALYSIS
The subject property is part of the Skye Canyon Master Plan Area, which is governed
by a Development Agreement between the Master Developer and the City of Las
Vegas, as well as the Kyle Canyon Development Standards and Architectural Design
Guidelines originally adopted on October 21, 2011.
Final Map (FMP-57264) was denied by the Planning Department on 08/28/17 due to the
missed filing deadline. Pursuant to NRS 278.360, phased final maps must be recorded
within two years of the previous map, unless an Extension of Time is approved. The
previous map for Skye Canyon Parcel 1.3, Phase 1 was recorded on 02/11/15. Final
Map (FMP-57264) for Skye Canyon Parcel 1.3, Phase 2 was submitted and a blueline
review was completed on 01/06/15. However, the mylar was not submitted for review
until 08/28/17, more than 2 years beyond the recordation date of the previous map. Due
to the missed deadline, the applicant is requesting a new Tentative Map in order to
finalize the subject residential subdivision.
The Skye Canyon Land Use Plan designates the subject property as L (Residential
Low), which allows up to 15 residential units per gross acre with an average of 5.49
units per acre. The proposed density of 5.45 dwelling units per unit falls within the
maximum allowed. The dwelling units will be constructed to both the Kyle R-1 (Single
Family Residential) district and the Kyle R-CL (Single Family Compact Lot) district
development standards for portions of this subdivision. All proposed lot sizes are
greater than the minimum required lot size of 2,000 square feet.
CS
TMP-71808 [PRJ-71798]
Staff Report Page Two
The submitted east/west cross section depicts depict maximum natural grade greater
than 2% across this site. Per the Kyle Canyon (Skye Canyon) Development Standards,
a development with natural slope greater than 2% is allowed a maximum 6-foot
retaining wall. A maximum 6-foot retaining wall is shown along the east and west
property lines. The submitted north/south cross section depicts maximum natural grade
less than 2% across this site. Per the Tables in Kyle Canyon (Skye Canyon)
Development Standards, a development with natural slope less than or equal to 2%, is
allowed a maximum 4-foot retaining wall. A maximum four-foot retaining wall is shown
on the south property line and no retaining wall is shown on the north property line.
The Clark County School District projects that approximately 36 primary and secondary
school students would be generated by the proposed development on this site. Of the
three schools serving the area (Bozarth Elementary School, Escobedo Middle School
and Arbor View High School), the District notes that Bozarth Elementary School and
Arbor View High School are over capacity for the 2016-17 school year, and no new
schools are planned in this area at this time.
FINDINGS (TMP-71808)
The proposed Tentative Map conforms in density to L (Residential Low) Kyle Canyon
land use designation and the Kyle Canyon Design Standards for both the Kyle R-1
(Single Family Residential District) and the Kyle R-CL (Single Family Compact Lot)
district; therefore, staff recommends approval of the request with conditions.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to construct a new classroom building at an existing

elementary (primary) public school at 1960 Ferrell Street. The building will be two
stories in height and will include 18 classrooms, restrooms and storage facilities.
Construction will displace a portion of the existing turf area at the northeast corner of the
site. A new parking lot would be built over a portion of the existing playground at the
southwest corner of the site. The new building would replace existing portable
classroom buildings.
ISSUES
x The site is zoned C-V (Civic) and is subject to the requirements of Title 19.10.020,
which generally allows the establishment of development standards through
approval of a Site Development Plan Review. However, because the site is adjacent
to R-E (Residence Estates), R-E (Rural Estates Residential Clark County) and R-E
(Ranch Estates North Las Vegas) zoned properties, development is subject to
specific Title 19 standards.
x A Variance from Title 19.10.020 is required to allow a reduction in the required
perimeter landscape buffer width along the west property line and the number of
perimeter trees. Staff recommends approval of the variance.
x The site consists of three separate parcels. In order to comply with Las Vegas
Valley Water District service rules, the contiguous parcels must be consolidated into
one. The mapping action shall be completed and recorded prior to the issuance of
any building permits. A condition of approval addresses this issue.
ANALYSIS
The existing school was approved and permitted while under Clark Countys jurisdiction
and the property was annexed into the City in 2013. Currently, the school contains 31
classrooms within various buildings. An additional 18 classrooms are proposed within a
proposed 35-foot tall, two-story classroom building at the northeast corner of the
property south of the existing bus pick-up area. In addition, three new basketball courts
are proposed to the west of the new building location on the interior of the site to
compensate for the partial loss of the playground area.
SS
VAR-71686 and SDR-71687 [PRJ-71577]
The proposed classroom building exterior will consist of variations in texture and color,
featuring colored bands of split-faced masonry and aluminum windows. The building
has a flat roofline with a parapet of varying height.
The C-V (Civic) zoning district allows any use operated or controlled by the city, county,
state or federal government, including a primary school operated by the Clark County
School District. The Public or Private School, Primary use is already established on the
site and is proposed to be expanded by this additional classroom building on the same
property while at the same time replacing temporary classroom structures with a
permanent building.
Site Development is subject to LVMC Title 19, with emphasis on Title 19.10.020 with
regard to C-V zoned properties. Per Title 19.10.020, the development standards for a
C-V (Civic) property are established by approval of a Site Development Plan Review.
However, when adjacent to a residential use in certain residential zoning districts,
additional standards are applied. Those standards include the maximum building height
of the R-E (Residence Estates) District, the landscape buffer standards of the P-O
(Professional Office) District, and the Title 19.08 commercial and industrial parking
design standards. If these specific standards cannot be met, a variance is required.
A portion of the proposed landscape buffer along the west property line has a minimum
width of three feet where eight feet is required. The entire landscape buffer is located
within a 20-foot wide NV Energy easement. The area where the buffer deviates from
the standard is less than 10 feet long and allows for access to the easement. As no
trees or other tall vegetation can be located within a utility easement, the applicant has
proposed various five-gallon shrubs within the buffer. For these reasons, staff
recommends approval of the variance to Title 19.10 for the reduced landscaping. New
landscaping along the south property line and in the parking lot is in conformance to
Title 19 standards. Mondel pines line the southern perimeter, while Rio Grande Ash
trees are proposed in the new parking lot.
The existing school site is in conformance with current UDC parking requirements. A
sufficient number of parking spaces has been provided to maintain the standard for
primary schools with this addition160 spaces are being provided in total where 147
spaces are required.
If this Site Development Plan Review is approved, the site must be remapped prior to
the issuance of building permits so that the proposed building is not constructed over an
existing lot line. This issue is addressed as a condition of approval.
SS
VAR-71686 and SDR-71687 [PRJ-71577]
The proposed classroom and parking lot additions to the existing primary school are
compatible with the existing school facilities and development on neighboring
properties. The permanent building will replace temporary structures on the site. In
addition, the expansion conforms to the policies and objectives of the School Facilities
Element of the Las Vegas 2020 Master Plan. Staff therefore recommends approval with
conditions.
FINDINGS (VAR-71686)
In accordance with the provisions of Title 19.16.140(B), Planning Commission and City
Council, in considering the merits of a Variance request, shall not grant a Variance in
order to:
1. Permit a use in a zoning district in which the use is not allowed;

2. Vary any minimum spacing requirement between uses;
3. Relieve a hardship which is solely personal, self-created or financial in nature.
Additionally, Title 19.16.140(L) states:

Where by reason of exceptional narrowness, shallowness, or shape of a specific
piece of property at the time of enactment of the regulation, or by reason of
exceptional topographic conditions or other extraordinary and exceptional
situation or condition of the piece of property, the strict application of any zoning
regulation would result in peculiar and exceptional practical difficulties to, or
exceptional and undue hardships upon, the owner of the property, a variance
from that strict application may be granted so as to relieve the difficulties or
hardship, if the relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public
good, without substantial impairment of affected natural resources and without
substantially impairing the intent and purpose of any ordinance or resolution.
The request for a variance of the C-V perimeter landscape standards in this case is the
result of a 20-foot wide utility easement along the west property line that precludes the
planting of trees. The area is fenced off from the proposed parking lot, which reduces
the size of the buffer near the entrance to the lot. Relief from the strict application of the
C-V standards in this case will not harm the public good. For these reasons, a variance
to these standards is warranted.
FINDINGS (SDR-71687)
In order to approve a Site Development Plan Review application, per Title 19.16.100(E)
the Planning Commission and/or City Council must affirm the following:
SS
VAR-71686 and SDR-71687 [PRJ-71577]
1. The proposed development is compatible with adjacent development and

development in the area;
The proposed school addition is compatible with the adjacent residential and
commercial uses on the adjacent parcels within the City of Las Vegas, City of
North Las Vegas and Clark County jurisdictions.
2. The proposed development is consistent with the General Plan, this Title,
and other duly-adopted city plans, policies and standards;
The proposed development does not meet the required landscape buffer width
and perimeter tree requirements for properties in the C-V zoning district that are
adjacent to residentially zoned parcels. However, the deviation is the result of an
existing power utility easement and impact to adjacent properties is minimal. The
School Facilities Element of the Las Vegas 2020 Master Plan includes policies
and objectives highlighting cooperation with Clark County School District in
meeting the needs of the citys expanding population. This includes providing
equal educational opportunities in established neighborhoods, which is satisfied
by this proposal.
3. Site access and circulation do not negatively impact adjacent roadways or

neighborhood traffic;
Access to the site will remain from Coran Lane and Ferrell Street; however, more
parking will be provided onsite. The existing bus pickup zone will not be affected
by the proposal. It is estimated that approximately 157 additional vehicles overall
would be introduced into the area as a result of the proposed development.
Ferrell Street, Coran Lane and Simmons Street are all believed to be under
capacity at this time.
4. Building and landscape materials are appropriate for the area and for the
City;
The proposed building will have a variegated concrete block exterior, while new
landscaping will consist of drought-tolerant trees and shrubs on the perimeter.
The proposed materials are appropriate for the area and the City.
5. Building elevations, design characteristics and other architectural and

aesthetic features are not unsightly, undesirable, or obnoxious in
appearance; create an orderly and aesthetically pleasing environment; and
are harmonious and compatible with development in the area;
SS
VAR-71686 and SDR-71687 [PRJ-71577]
The proposed building will have a variegated concrete block exterior and rooflines
that vary in height. The proposed design will be harmonious and compatible with
development in the area.
6. Appropriate measures are taken to secure and protect the public health,
safety and general welfare.
The proposed improvements will be subject to code compliance and enforcement

to assure that they are constructed in a manner that will not endanger the public
health, safety or general welfare.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant has proposed to develop a Service Vehicle Storage Facility for Carevans
Medical Transport on the west side of Rancho Drive, approximately 215 feet north of
Red Coach Avenue within the C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district.
ISSUES
x A Special Use Permit is required for a Delivery and Service Vehicle Storage use
in the C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district. Staff is recommending approval
of this request.
x A Waiver is requested to allow the repair or servicing of vehicles where such is
not allowed. Staff is recommending approval of this request.
x A Variance is required to allow a zero-foot side yard setback where ten feet is
required. Staff is recommending approval of this request.
x A Site Development Plan Review is required for the development of a lot within
the C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district. Staff is recommending approval of
this request.
x A five-foot wide NV Energy power easement dissects the subject site north to
south.
x The subject site is a legal, nonconforming lot within the C-2 (General
Commercial) zoning district.
ANALYSIS
The applicant has proposed to develop a 0.64 acre undeveloped lot into a facility for
storage of Service Vehicles for Carevans Medical Transport.
The subject site is an undeveloped lot located within the C-2 (General Commercial)
zoning district with a NV Energy power easement that dissects the site north to south. In
addition to the restrictions of the power easement, the subject site is a legal,
nonconforming lot as the C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district requires a lot width
of 100 feet. The subject site has a total lot width of 65 feet.
NE
Due to the site restrictions and the necessity of a fire access lane, the applicant has
proposed to construct a single-story, 2,104 square-foot building along the south
property line, east of the NV Energy Power Easement. As a result, the applicant
requires a setback Variance which staff supports due to the site constraints.
Although the adjacent site to the north is also zoned C-2 (General Commercial), it is
currently used as a single family residence. This will require a six to eight-foot tall
screen wall along the northern property line in accordance with Title 19.08 which states,
For commercial and industrial properties, a perimeter wall shall be constructed
adjacent to any residential zoning district or property used solely for residential
purposes, shall be a minimum of six feet in height, and in no case shall exceed the
height limitation applicable to the adjacent zoning district or property. Staff has added a
Condition of Approval to ensure the proper screening of the residential use.
The applicant has requested a Waiver to reduce portions of the landscape buffers
around the site. Staff is supporting the request, as the landscape reductions were done
in order to accommodate a required fire access lane and for the placement of the
building on the property line also in accommodation of a fire access lane and to avoid
the NV Energy power easement.
The proposed floor plan depicts a main office with two secondary offices, storage
space, restrooms, and two breakrooms.
The proposed use, Delivery and Service Vehicle Storage is a Conditional use in the C-
2 (General Commercial) zoning district, but as stated by the applicant in the justification
letter, the applicant is proposing a garage for the western of the proposed building in
order to perform windshield repairs on the service vehicles. Due to this request, the
applicant was not able to meet Condition Number 4a, which prohibits the servicing or
repair of vehicles. As a result, the applicant has submitted an application for a Special
Use Permit in order to Waive this requirement. Staff supports this request and is
recommending approval of the Special Use Permit.
The Delivery and Service Vehicle Storage use is defined by Title 19.12 as The use of
an area or facility for the parking and storage of commercial fleet vehicles that are used
primarily in connection with the delivery of goods and services to the surrounding
community.
The Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for this use include:
1. Requirement 1: All areas used for the parking and storage of vehicles shall be
paved, and shall be effectively screened so as not to be visible from adjoining
properties or public rights-of-way.
NE
The proposed use meets this requirement as the proposed development

demonstrates a paved site with landscape buffers that contain the minimum
required trees and shrubs to adequately screen the vehicles. In addition, since
the adjacent property to the north is a residential use, a solid screen wall is
required along that north property line and a Condition of Approval has been
added to ensure compliance.
2. Requirement 2: Lighting shall be shielded from adjacent properties.
The proposed use meets this requirement as Title 19.08 requires site lighting to
be arranged and controlled to not cause a nuisance to neighboring properties.
3. Requirement 3: The use shall not occupy or interfere with any parking spaces
that are required for any other existing or proposed areas for which required
parking is or will be provided on the site.
The proposed use meets this requirement as the proposed Delivery and Service
Vehicle Storage Facility use is the only use proposed for the site.
4. Requirement 4: None of the following activities shall be permitted on site:

a. The repair or servicing of vehicles.
The applicant has requested a Waiver of this requirement to allow the

repair and servicing of vehicles to occur on site. Staff supports this
request.
b. The storage or warehousing of goods or merchandise.
The proposed use includes the storage of service vehicles, employee,

breakroom, and restrooms, and a garage area for minor repairs. No
storage or warehousing of goods or merchandise is proposed for this site.
order to:

NE

Evidence of a unique or extraordinary circumstance has been presented, in that the

subject site is a legal, nonconforming site within the C-2 (General Commercial) zoning
district. The C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district has a minimum lot width of 100
feet. The subject site has a lot width of 65 feet. In addition, there is an existing NV
Energy Power Easement that runs north and south that dissects the site, preventing any
building or trees from being constructed in this portion of the site. In view of these
hardships imposed by the sites physical characteristics, it is concluded that the
applicants hardship is not self-imposed, and it is thereby within the realm of NRS
Chapter 278 for granting of Variances.
FINDINGS (SUP-71759)
In order to approve a Special Use Permit application, per Title 19.16.110(L) the Planning
Commission and City Council must affirm the following:
1. The proposed land use can be conducted in a manner that is harmonious

and compatible with existing surrounding land uses, and with future
surrounding land uses as projected by the General Plan.
The proposed development is compatible with the existing commercial and multi-
family residences in the area. While the adjacent property to the north contains a
single family home, the lot is zoned C-2 (General Commercial) and its future land
use is Service Commercial.
2. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of land use
proposed.
The subject site is zoned C-2 (General Commercial) which is designed to provide
a broad scope of commercial uses including service, automotive, and other
general business uses of an intense character. With the subject site being
adjacent to a 125-foot wide Freeway / Expressway, the site is physically suited for
a service vehicle storage facility.
NE
3. Street or highway facilities providing access to the property are or will be

adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed use.
Site access is provided by Rancho Drive, a 125-foot wide Freeway / Expressway

as classified by the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. Secondary site access
is provided by Red Coach Avenue, a 60-foot wide Local Street. Both roadways
are adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed use.
4. Approval of the Special Use Permit at the site in question will not be
inconsistent with or compromise the public health, safety, and welfare or
the overall objectives of the General Plan.
The approval of a Delivery and Service Vehicle Storage Facility use will not be
inconsistent with the General Plan as the subject site is designated SC (Service
Commercial). The Service Commercial land use designation supports commercial
uses that serve area patrons.
5. The use meets all of the applicable conditions per Title 19.12.
The applicant has requested a Waiver of requirement 4a, to allow the repair and
servicing of service vehicles on site. Staff supports this request. The proposed use
has met the remaining Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements per Title
19.12.

The proposed development is compatible with the existing commercial and multi-
family residences in the area. While the adjacent property to the north contains a
single family home, the lot is zoned C-2 (General Commercial) and its future land
use is Service Commercial.
Due to an existing NV Energy easement and a legal, nonconforming lot width of

65 feet, the proposed development has requested a setback Variance and
Landscape buffer width Waiver for portions of the site which staff supports.
NE

Site access is provided by Rancho Drive, a 125-foot wide Freeway / Expressway

as classified by the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. Secondary site access
is provided by Red Coach Avenue, a 60-foot wide Local Street. Both roadways
are adequate in size and will not be negatively impacted by the proposed use.
In a report prepared by the Traffic Division of Public Works, the proposed project
will add approximately 23 trips per day on Red Coach Avenue, Rancho Drive, and
Lone Mountain Road. Currently, Rancho Drive is at approximately 53 percent of
capacity and Lone Mountain Road is at approximately 47 percent of capacity.
With this project, these capacities are expected to remain unchanged. Counts are
not available for Red Coach Avenue in this vicinity, but it is believed to be under
capacity.
City;
Building materials include Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) block and stucco, with
African Sumac trees and rosemary, cassia, and juniper shrubs. All proposed
materials are appropriate for the area and the City.

The proposed development is not unsightly or obnoxious in appearance and has

provided the necessary landscape materials in the buffer areas to screen the
service vehicles. The proposed development will be compatible with existing
The proposed development is subject to building permit review and regular site
inspections during the construction phase, thus securing the public health, safety
and general welfare.
NE

This project will add approximately 23 trips per day on Red Coach Ave., Rancho Dr. and Lone Mountain Rd. Currently,
Rancho is at about 53 percent of capacity and Lone Mountain is at about 47 percent of capacity. With this project, these
capacities are expected to remain unchanged. Counts are not available for Red Coach in this vicinity, but it is believed to
be under capacity.
Based on Peak Hour use, this development will add into the area roughly 3 additional cars, or about one every twenty
minutes.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Site Development Plan Review of an existing expansion to an

established Restaurant, Beer/Wine/Cooler On-Sale Establishment, and Packaged
Liquor Off-Sale Establishment located at 2620 Regatta Drive, Suite #106. The applicant
has also proposed the conversion from a Beer/Wine/Cooler On-Sale Establishment to a
Restaurant with Alcohol.
ISSUES
These application requests are a result of Code Enforcement case number

(#176981) where a complaint was received for a non-permitted patio enclosure,
fireplace, and gas heaters.
A Site Development Plan Review is required to account for the additional indoor
and outdoor square footage constructed without building permits. Staff is
recommending approval of this request.
A Special Use Permit is required to convert the existing Beer/Wine/Cooler On-
Sale Establishment to a Restaurant with Alcohol in the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district. Staff is recommending approval of this request.
A Waiver has been requested for the Restaurant with Alcohol to allow a zero-foot
distance separation from a church/house of worship. Staff supports this request.
These applications do not affect the existing legal, nonconforming Package
Liquor Off-Sale Establishment, as the existing storefront did not expand, only the
restaurant seating area.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is an established 6,975 square-foot Restaurant (Marche Bacchus) and
Beer/Wine/Cooler On-Sale Establishment located within Desert Shores at 2620 Regatta
Drive, Suite #106. The establishment also maintains a Package Liquor Off-Sale license
that allows the restaurant to sell individual bottles of wine in their storefront at the same
location.
NE
SUP-71786 and SDR-71787 [PRJ-71218]
The Special Use Permit (U-0311-91) for the Package Liquor Off-Sale Establishment
was approved on February 19, 1992 by the City Council before the current non-
waivable Minimum Special Use Permit Requirement was adopted that requires a 400-
foot distance separation from a church/house of worship. This Package Liquor Off-Sale
Establishment is a legal, nonconforming use in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning
district.
As stated in the justification letter, previous restaurant owners have added additional
seating areas to the rear of the restaurant without the necessary building permits. A
complaint to the Department of Planning Code Enforcement Division resulted in an
inspection that revealed the expanded floor area and patio enclosures without the
necessary building permits. The applicant is requesting a Site Development Plan
Review to account for the additional floor area in order to obtain proper building permits.
The restaurant is currently 6,457 square feet, with 518 square feet of outdoor seating.
Although the restaurant expansion and patio enclosure were completed without the
required building permits, the expanded areas are harmonious and compatible with the
development in the area and staff is recommending approval of this request.
On December 6, 2000 the City Council approved a request for a Special Use Permit (U-
0169-00) for a Restaurant Service Bar at 2620 Regatta Drive, Suite #106. The existing
Synagogue did not go through the entitlement process until 2001, which now makes the
subject alcohol use a legal, nonconforming use. Since the existing establishment is
requesting a new land entitlement for a Restaurant with Alcohol, a Waiver is now
necessary from the existing Synagogue located on the southeast corner of Breakwater
Drive and Regatta Drive. Staff is supporting this request as the subject establishment
has operated without a reported incident to the Department of Planning. Staff finds the
proposed Restaurant with Alcohol can also be operated in a manner that is harmonious
and compatible with the surrounding area.
The restaurant is currently licensed as Beer/Wine/Cooler On-Sale Establishment. The

additional seating areas added over the years now allows the subject restaurant to meet
the Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for a Restaurant with Alcohol which
requires a minimum amount of patron seating to be 100. The subject restaurant now
provides seating for 154 patrons. Similar to the requirements of a Beer/Wine/Cooler On-
Sale Establishment, the Restaurant with Alcohol use also requires the alcohol to be
served in conjunction with a meal.
The Restaurant with Alcohol use is defined as a restaurant and bar operation with
alcoholic beverage sales in which:
NE
SUP-71786 and SDR-71787 [PRJ-71218]
1. The actual seating available at all times within the dining area will
accommodate at least 100 persons. For purposes of this requirement, the
dining area does not include bar stool seating at the bar or lounge
seating, but may include table or booth seating within the bar area and
table seating within a patio area;
2. Alcoholic beverages are served in the restaurant area only in conjunction

with the service of food;
3. Full-course meals are available during all hours the bar area is open to the
public;
4. A cook and food server, other than a bartender, are available at all times
the bar area is open to the public; and
5. The restaurant operation is the principal portion of the business.
The proposed use meets the definition of a Restaurant with Alcohol as the restaurant
operation is the principal portion of the business, provides seating for 100 persons, and
the alcohol is served in conjunction with the service of food.
1. Requirement 1: No restaurant with alcohol use shall be located within 400 feet of
any church/house of worship, school, individual care center licensed for more
than 12 children, or City park.
The proposed expansion of an existing use is located within a shopping center

that contains a variety of uses, including a church/house of worship. The
applicant has requested a Waiver of this distance separation requirement. Staff
supports this request.
2. Requirement 2: Except as otherwise provided in Requirement 3 below, the

minimum distances referred to in Requirement 1 shall be determined with
reference to the shortest distance between two property lines, one being the
property line of the proposed restaurant with alcohol which is closest to the
existing use to which the measurement pertains, and the other being the property
line of that existing use which is closest to the proposed restaurant with alcohol.
The distance shall be measured in a straight line without regard to intervening
obstacles. For purposes of measurement, the term property line refers to
property lines of fee interest parcels and does not include the property line of:
a. Any leasehold parcel; or
NE
SUP-71786 and SDR-71787 [PRJ-71218]
b. Any parcel which lacks access to a public street or has no area for on-site
parking and which has been created so as to avoid the distance limitation
described in Requirement 1.
The proposed expansion of an existing use is located within the same shopping
center as a church/house of worship which has resulted in a zero-foot distance
separation. The applicant has requested a Waiver of this distance separation
requirement. Staff supports this request.
3. Requirement 3: Except as otherwise provided in Requirement 3 below, the

minimum distances referred to in Requirement 1 shall be determined with
reference to the shortest distance between two property lines, one being the
property line of the proposed restaurant with alcohol which is closest to the
existing use to which the measurement pertains, and the other being the property
line of that existing use which is closest to the proposed restaurant with alcohol.
The distance shall be measured in a straight line without regard to intervening
obstacles. For purposes of measurement, the term property line refers to
property lines of fee interest parcels and does not include the property line of:
The proposed expansion of an existing use is located within the same shopping
center as a church/house of worship which has resulted in a zero-foot distance
separation. The applicant has requested a Waiver of this distance separation
requirement. Staff supports this request.
4. Requirement 4: When considering a Special Use Permit application for a

restaurant with alcohol which also requires a waiver of the distance limitation in
Requirement 1, the Planning Commission shall take into consideration the
distance policy and shall, as part of its recommendation to the City Council, state
whether the distance requirement should be waived and the reasons in support
of the decision.
The subject site is a shopping center that was designed to accommodate a

variety of uses, including a Restaurant with Alcohol. Staff is recommending
approval of the Waiver request.
NE
SUP-71786 and SDR-71787 [PRJ-71218]
5. Requirement 5: The minimum distance requirement in Requirement 1 does not

apply to an establishment which has a nonrestricted gaming license in
connection with a hotel having 200 or more guest rooms on or before July 1,
1992, or in connection with a resort hotel having in excess of 200 guest rooms
after July 1, 1992.
This requirement is not applicable.
6. Requirement 6: The parcel or use is operated or controlled by an agency or

subdivision of local, state or federal government. (C-V only)
This requirement is not applicable.
7. Requirement 7: All businesses which sell alcoholic beverages shall conform to

the provisions of LVMC Chapter 6.50.
The subject site will be subject to regular inspections to ensure compliance with
LVMC Chapter 6.50.
Staff finds the existing, expanded Restaurant and alcohol use(s) operate in a manner
that is harmonious and compatible with the existing surrounding commercial and
residential uses; therefore staff is recommending approval of both the Site Development
Plan Review and the Special Use Permit with a Waiver of the minimum distance
separation requirement.

The subject site is a shopping center surrounded by single family residences and
a private lake. The shopping center was designed to accommodate a multitude of
uses to serve the area residents. A Restaurant with Alcohol can be conducted in a
manner that is harmonious and compatible with the existing surrounding land
uses.
proposed.
NE
SUP-71786 and SDR-71787 [PRJ-71218]
The subject site is an established shopping center with a variety of uses and is
physically suited for a Restaurant with Alcohol.

Site access is provided by a single driveway from Breakwater Drive, and two
driveways from Regatta Drive. Both Breakwater Drive and Regatta Drive are local
streets designed to carry a combination of light commercial and residential traffic,
and are adequate in size for the entire shopping center.
The subject site is subject to regular inspections by both the Department of

Planning Business Licensing Division and the Southern Nevada Health District
ensuring the public health, safety, and welfare will not be compromised.
The use was not able to meet Condition of Approval number one (1), and the
subject site is a shopping center with a variety of uses including a Synagogue.
The applicant is requesting a Waiver of the distance separation requirement. Staff
supports this request.

The subject additions are compatible with the existing shopping center and
NE
SUP-71786 and SDR-71787 [PRJ-71218]
The subject additions were completed without proper building permits, thus
violating City policies and standards. These applications are the first step in
correcting these violations and obtaining the necessary building permits.

Site access and circulation is not altered by these applications and will not
negatively impact adjacent roadways or neighborhood traffic. In a report prepared
by the Traffic Division of Public Works, the proposed Restaurant with Alcohol will
add approximately 122 trips per day to Regatta Drive and Breakwater Drive.
Currently, Regatta Drive is at approximately 36 percent of capacity with
Breakwater Drive at approximately seven percent of capacity. The proposed
project will impact the adjacent roadways minimally as Regatta Drive will rise to
approximately 37 percent of capacity, and Breakwater Drive will rise to
approximately eight percent of capacity.

Building materials used for the patio additions are appropriate for the area and are
compatible with the main structure. No landscaping materials were added as part
of the additions.

The architectural features of the enclosed patios are not unsightly or obnoxious in
appearance and create an aesthetically pleasing environment.
A Condition of Approval has been added to ensure the proper building permits are
obtained from the Department of Building & Safety within 90 days of final approval
for the subject additions and enclosures to secure and protect the public health,

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a 13,513 square-foot Government Facility (Fire Station) with an
alternative parking standard at 2645 West Washington Avenue. The proposed fire
station will be a replacement for the existing fire station on the subject site.
ISSUES
A Special Use Permit has been requested for an Alternative Parking Standard to
allow 36 parking spaces where 46 are required. Staff recommends approval of the
request.
A Site Development Plan Review has been requested for a 13,513 square-foot fire
station replacement. Staff recommends approval of the request.
Perimeter landscape waivers and a parking lot landscape exception have been
requested to allow for the reduction of landscape buffer widths, perimeter trees, and
parking lot trees to accommodate the requirements associated with vehicle ingress
and egress, the inclusion of fire apparatus shade structure, carports, and a public art
sculpture. Staff recommends approval of the request.
ANALYSIS
The request is for a 13,513 square-foot fire station at 2645 West Washington Avenue.
The proposed station will replace the existing Fire Station #3 which currently occupies
the subject site. The site, which will not be open to the general public, will receive
access from both Washington Avenue and Earnest May Lane. The entry from Earnest
May Lane will be gated for controlled access by station personnel.
A Special Use Permit has been submitted to allow an alternative parking standard to
allow 36 parking spaces where 46 are required. Per Title 19.18, where the unique
operation of a particular use creates a lesser parking demand than the parking
requirements otherwise applicable under Title 19.12, an alternative parking standard for
the use may be established in conjunction with the submittal of a Parking Demand
Analysis. The Parking Demand Analysis must be signed and sealed by a professional
traffic engineer, must document the weekday and weekend peak parking demand for
the proposed use for the site, and must provide justification for the alternative parking
standard.
FS
SUP-71921 and SDR-71773 [PRJ-71580]
The Government Facility use mandates that one space be provided per 300 square feet
of building area, which results in a minimum of 46 required parking spaces. The
operation of a fire station is unique in that the facility is not open to the general public,
and on-site parking will only be utilized by the employees of the station. The Fire and
Rescue Department has indicated that the typical shift is 16 employees, with the
maximum parking demand occurring during shift changes where 32 spaces would be
required. The submitted Parking Demand Analysis indicates the following parking
demand:
Day of the Week Parking Demand based on Daily Shift Change

Monday 32 parking spaces
Tuesday 32 parking spaces
Wednesday 32 parking spaces
Thursday 32 parking spaces
Friday 32 parking spaces
Saturday 32 parking spaces
Sunday 32 parking spaces
As the station will not be open to the general public, and the 36 parking spaces provided
exceeds the peak parking demand as indicated by the Parking Demand Analysis, staff
recommends approval of the Special Use Permit request.
The landscape plan depicts a deficiency in the amount of perimeter landscaping along
all property lines and waivers are being requested to provide relief from these
requirements. A two-foot wide buffer area is being provided along portions of the east
and west property lines where eight feet is required, a 12-foot wide landscape buffer is
being provided along the north property line where 15 feet is required, a 10-foot wide
landscape buffer is being provided along the south property line where 15 feet is
required. A waiver is being requested to allow an encroachment into the required
landscape buffer area by carports and a fire apparatus shade structure along the east
and west property lines where such is not permitted. A total of 13 perimeter trees are
being provided where 36 are required. The reduction of perimeter landscaping is
justified as additional site visibility is required for truck ingress and egress along both
street frontages, and to allow for the shade structures, generators and other mechanical
equipment associated with the general operation of a fire station. The reduction of
street trees along the north property line is also beneficial as it increases the visibility of
a public art sculpture that will be on display at the station. An exception is being
requested to allow zero parking lot trees where six are required. The exception is
justified due to the need for open areas to allow the maneuvering of trucks and fire
equipment within the southern parking lot.
FS
SUP-71921 and SDR-71773 [PRJ-71580]
The building elevations depict a 29-foot tall fire station with a pitched roof line and
photovoltaic panels. The exterior building materials consist of an Exterior Insulation
Finishing System (EISF) material in light desert tones. Vehicle access is provided by
four bay doors on the north and south sides of the building. In keeping with the Citys
sustainability goals, the Department of Public Works has indicated that this building will
be constructed with the goal of obtaining a LEED certification.
This fire station replacement is an aesthetic enhancement to the existing site, and will
allow for continued ISO Class 1 fire protection service in the local area. Staff
recommends approval of the Site Development Plan Review and all associated waiver
requests.

The proposed reduction of required parking proposed by the Alternative Parking

Standard request does not have an effect on surrounding land uses.
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the proposed
land use.

The street facilities providing access to the property are adequate in size to meet
the requirements of the proposed use.
Approval of the Alternative Parking Standard will not compromise the public
health, safety and welfare, or the overall objections of the General Plan.

There are no additional conditions associated with the Alternative Parking

Standard request.

The proposed fire station is compatible with adjacent development and

With the approval of the requested alternative parking standard, landscape

waivers, and parking lot exception, the development is consistent with the General
Plan, Title 19, and other duly-adopted city plans, policies and standards.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing to add beer and wine sales for off-premise consumption to a
new 2,157 square-foot General Retail Store (Convenience Store) at 197 East California
Street, Suite #140.
ISSUES
x The Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment use is permitted in 18b The Las

Vegas Arts District by reference to Title 19.12.
x A Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment use is permitted in the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district with the approval of a Special Use Permit.
ANALYSIS
The proposed Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment use will be located in a new

building tenant space within a larger retail and office building. The parcel is located
within 18b The Las Vegas Arts District. The list of permitted uses in this district was
recently amended to include Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment as a permitted
use on parcels within the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district with approval of a
Special Use Permit. There are no protected uses within the required 400-foot distance
separation radius of the subject parcel.
The Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale use is defined by Title 19.18 as an establishment

whose license to sell alcoholic beverages is limited to the sale of beer, wine and coolers
to consumers only and not for resale, in original sealed or corked containers, for
consumption off the premises where the same are sold, and is operated in connection
with a grocery store, drug store, convenience store or specialty merchandise store.
The proposed use meets the definition, as the applicants request is for the sale of
packaged beer, wine and wine coolers for consumption off the premises in connection
with a proposed convenience store.
The Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for this use are included in Title 19.12
as referenced by the Downtown Centennial Plan and include the following (an asterisk
indicates that this is a nonwaivable use):
SS
SUP-71648 [PRJ-71482]
*1. Except as otherwise provided, no beer/wine/cooler off-sale establishment

(hereinafter establishment) shall be located within 400 feet of any church/house
of worship, school, individual care center licensed for more than 12 children, or
City park.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as there are no protected uses within
400 feet of the proposed use.
*2. Except as otherwise provided in Requirement 3 below, the distances referred to in

Requirement 1 shall be determined with reference to the shortest distance
between two property lines, one being the property line of the proposed
establishment which is closest to the existing use to which the measurement
pertains, and the other being the property line of that existing use which is closest
to the proposed establishment. The distance shall be measured in a straight line
without regard to intervening obstacles. For purposes of measurement, the term

measured from the property line of the parcel containing the proposed
establishment.
*3. In the case of an establishment proposed to be located on a parcel of at least 80

acres in size, the minimum distances referred to in Requirement 1 shall be
measured in a straight line:
a. From the nearest property line of the existing use to the nearest portion of
the structure in which the establishment will be located, without regard to
intervening obstacles; or
b. In the case of a proposed establishment which will be located within a
shopping center or other multiple tenant structure, from the nearest
property line of the existing use to the nearest property line of a leasehold
or occupancy parcel in which the establishment will be located, without
regard to intervening obstacles.

4. When considering a Special Use Permit application for an establishment which

also requires a waiver of the distance limitation in Requirement 1, the Planning
Commission shall take into consideration the distance policy and shall, as part of
its recommendation to the City Council, state whether the distance requirement
should be waived and the reasons in support of the decision.
This requirement does not apply to the proposed use, as no distance separation
waiver is necessary.
5. The minimum distance requirements in Requirement 1 do not apply to:

a. An establishment which has a nonrestricted gaming license in connection
with a hotel having 200 or more guest rooms on or before July 1, 1992 or

d. In connection with a retail establishment having less than 20,000 square
feet of retail floor space, if the area to be used for the sale, display or
merchandising of alcoholic beverages and each use to be protected are
separated by a highway or a right of way with a width of at least 100 feet.
SS
SUP-71648 [PRJ-71482]
This requirement does not apply, as no waiver of distance separation is

necessary.
8. No beer/wine/cooler off-sale establishment shall be permitted on or adjacent to

the Pedestrian Mall, as defined in LVMC Chapter 11.68.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the subject site is not located on or
adjacent to the Pedestrian Mall.
The submitted floor plan indicates that beer, wine and wine coolers would be located on
shelves and within a bank of coolers along two walls of the convenience store. As the
store will be located on a corner, there are two entrances to the tenant space, one on
each frontage.
The proposed use is located within a proposed convenience store attached to other
office and retail uses within an existing building. There are no other such
establishments in this area, and this establishment meets all distance separation
requirements from protected uses. The use can be conducted in a manner that is
harmonious and compatible with the adjacent commercial uses in the area. Staff
therefore recommends approval, subject to conditions.

The proposed use is located within a proposed convenience store attached to

other office and retail uses within an existing building. There are no other such
establishments in this area, and this establishment meets all distance separation
requirements from protected uses. The site is surrounded by other retail and
office uses that are zoned for such uses.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment is proposed to be offered to patrons of a

proposed convenience store at 450 South Buffalo Drive, Suite #112. The tenant space
is located within an established 28,145 square-foot shopping center.
ISSUES
x A Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment requires approval of a Special Use

Permit within the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district.
x Pursuant to Requirement 7d the applicant may request a Waiver of the distance
separation requirements in Requirement 1, as the subject site is separated from the
existing school by Buffalo Drive, which is a right of way of a least 100 feet.
ANALYSIS
A Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment use is described in Tile 19.12 as An

establishment whose license to sell alcoholic beverages is limited to the sale of beer,
wine and coolers to consumers only and not for resale, in original sealed or corked
containers, for consumption off the premises where business is conducted, and is
operated in connection with a grocery store, drugstore, convenience store, restaurant or
general retail store.
This use requires approval of a Special Use Permit within a C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district in Title 19. The Minimum Special Use Permit Regulations for this use
include:
*1. Except as otherwise provided, no beer/wine/cooler off-sale establishment

(hereinafter establishment) shall be located within 400 feet of any church/house of
worship, school, individual care center licensed for more than 12 children, or City park.
The proposed use does not meet this requirement, as a school is located 362 feet west
of the parcel where the Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment is proposed to be
located. As a result, the applicant has requested a Waiver to allow a 362-foot distance
separation from an existing school where 400 feet is required.
JB
SUP-71732 [PRJ-71695]
* 2. Except as otherwise provided in Requirement 3 below, the distances referred to in

Requirement 1 shall be determined with reference to the shortest distance between two
property lines, one being the property line of the proposed establishment which is
closest to the existing use to which the measurement pertains, and the other being the
property line of that existing use which is closest to the proposed establishment. The
distance shall be measured in a straight line without regard to intervening obstacles. For
purposes of measurement, the term property line refers to property lines of fee interest
parcels and does not include the property line of:
A. Any leasehold parcel; or
B. Any parcel which lacks access to a public street or has no area for on-site
Separation distance has been measured from the property line of the parcel located at
the northeast corner of Alta Drive and Buffalo Drive to the property line of the school
located at 7701 Ducharme Avenue.
* 3. In the case of an establishment proposed to be located on a parcel of at least 80

acres in size, the minimum distances referred to in Requirement 1 shall be measured in
a straight line:
A. From the nearest property line of the existing use to the nearest portion of the
structure in which the establishment will be located, without regard to intervening
obstacles; or
B. In the case of a proposed establishment which will be located within a shopping
center or other multiple tenant structure, from the nearest property line of the
existing use to the nearest property line of a leasehold or occupancy parcel in
which the establishment will be located, without regard to intervening obstacles.
This requirement is not applicable, as the subject site is located on a 1.71-acre parcel.
4. When considering a Special Use Permit application for an establishment which also
requires a waiver of the distance limitation in Requirement 1, the Planning
Commission shall take into consideration the distance policy and shall, as part of its
recommendation to the City Council, state whether the distance requirement should
be waived and the reasons in support of the decision.
The applicant has requested a waiver to allow a 362-foot distance separation from an
existing school where 400 feet is required.
5. The minimum distance requirements in Requirement 1 do not apply to:

A. An establishment which has a non-restricted gaming license in connection with a
hotel having 200 or more guest rooms on or before July 1, 1992 or in connection
with a resort hotel having in excess of 200 guest rooms after July 1, 1992; or
JB
SUP-71732 [PRJ-71695]
B. A proposed establishment having more than 50,000 square feet of retail floor
space.
Neither condition applies to the proposed use; therefore, the proposed

Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment is subject to distance separation
requirements.
* 6. All businesses which sell alcoholic beverages shall conform to the provisions of
LVMC Chapter 6.50.
The proposed use will be subject to all business licensing requirements outlined in
LVMC Chapter 6.50 if approved.
7. The minimum distance requirements set forth in Requirement 1, which are otherwise
non-waivable under the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C), may be waived:
A. In accordance with the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C) for any establishment
which is proposed to be located on a parcel within the Downtown Casino Overlay
District;
B. In accordance with the applicable provisions of the Town Center Development
Standards Manual for any establishment which is proposed to be located within
the T-C (Town Center) Zoning District and which is designated MS- TC (Main
Street Mixed Use) in the Town Center Land Use Plan;
C. In connection with a proposed establishment having between 20,000 square feet
and 50,000 square feet of retail floor space, if no more than 10 percent of the retail
floor space is regularly devoted to the display or merchandising of alcoholic
beverages; or
D. In connection with a retail establishment having less than 20,000 square feet of
retail floor space, if the area to be used for the sale, display or merchandising of
alcoholic beverages and each use to be protected are separated by a highway or
a right of way with a width of at least 100 feet.
Pursuant to Requirement 7d the applicant may request a Waiver of the distance

separation requirements in Requirement 1, as the subject site is separated from the
existing school by Buffalo Drive, which is a right-of-way of at least 100 feet.
8. No beer/wine/cooler off-sale establishment shall be permitted on or adjacent to the

Pedestrian Mall, as defined in LVMC Chapter 11.68.
This requirement does not apply, as the subject site is not located adjacent to an
existing Pedestrian Mall, as defined in LVMC Chapter 11.68.
JB
SUP-71732 [PRJ-71695]
According to the justification letter and floor plan, the proposed use meets the definition
outlined above. The use is proposed to be located within a 1,541-square-foot tenant
space within a 28,145 square-foot shopping center. The shopping center parcel is
located 362 feet east of a junior high school, but is separated from the protected use by
a 106-foot right-of-way (Buffalo Drive) and a residential development. The shopping
center also backs up to an existing residential development, but has no direct access to
this neighborhood.
As there is no direct access from the shopping center parcel to the school, the use can
be conducted in a manner that is harmonious and compatible with other commercial
uses in the shopping center and with the commercial and residential uses on adjacent
properties. Staff therefore recommends approval of a Special Use Permit for a
Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment at this location, subject to conditions. If
denied, the Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale use would not be allowed, however the general
retail (convenience store) use would be permitted in the subject tenant space.

The use is located within an established shopping center with other compatible
uses and is separated from the existing primary school by a primary arterial
(Buffalo Drive) and a residential development. These are mitigating factors that
eliminate incompatibility with the surrounding land uses.
proposed.
The subject shopping center site is physically suitable for a Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-
Sale Establishment use. No additional parking is required beyond the proposed
general retail (convenience store) use.

JB
SUP-71732 [PRJ-71695]
The subject site receives access from Alta Drive, an 80-foot Major Collector and
Buffalo Drive, a 106-foot Primary Arterial as classified by the Master Plan of
Streets and Highways. Both roadways are adequate in size to accommodate the
proposed Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment use.
The proposed use will be subject to business license review and periodic
inspection, thereby safeguarding the public health, safety and general welfare.
The proposed Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment use does not meet

Conditional Use Regulation 1, which requires a 400-foot distance separation from
protected uses. Pursuant to Requirement 7d, the applicant has requested a
Waiver to allow a 362-foot distance separation from an existing school where 400
feet is required.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to construct a new classroom building at an existing

elementary (primary) public school at 2200 James Bilbray Drive. The building will be
two stories and will include 18 classrooms, restrooms and storage facilities.
Construction will displace a portion of the existing turf area at the northeast corner of the
site. A new parking lot would replace an existing shade structure and a portion of the
existing playground at the southwest corner of the site.
ISSUES
which allows the establishment of development standards through approval of a Site
Development Plan Review.
x A condition of approval will require trees to be planted along the northern portion of
the east property line adjacent to the proposed building for screening purposes.
ANALYSIS
permanent building.
The site is bordered by multi-family development to the north, south and west and by
two townhome developments on the east. The multi-family developments are zoned R-
PD14 (Residential Planned Development 14 Units per Acre) and R-PD15 (Residential
Planned Development 15 Units per Acre), while the townhomes are zoned R-PD10
(Residential Planned Development 10 Units per Acre) and R-PD14 (Residential
Planned Development 14 Units per Acre). Where a C-V zoned property is adjacent to
residential uses in the U, R-E, R-D, R-1, R-SL, R-CL and R-2 zoning districts, specific
height, landscape buffer and parking design standards are applicable to protect the
adjacent residential uses from potential negative impacts of development. According to
Title 19.10.050 regarding R-PD development standards, the Director of Planning may
apply by analogy the general definitions, principles, standards and procedures set forth
SS
SDR-71691 [PRJ-71662]
in Title 19, taking into consideration the intent of the approved Site Development Plan
Review. In this case, the surrounding residential uses are either multi-family or single-
family uses that have a density similar to that of the multi-family development in the
vicinity of the site, which are not in the listed districts for the specific standards. For this
reason, the more specific height, landscape and parking design standards are not
applied to this site.
Landscape buffers are not being provided on the north or east perimeters adjacent to
new development, and the existing buffers are proposed to remain on the west and
south perimeters. On the north and east perimeters, the existing site is turfed but lacks
adequate screening from adjacent single-family attached properties. A condition of
approval will require trees to be planted along the northern portion of the east property
line adjacent to the proposed building for screening purposes.
The existing school site is parking impaired per Title 19.18.030(D). The school is
providing 59 spaces for 34 existing classrooms. The proposed building will require 54
additional spaces; per 19.18.030(D), 113 spaces overall are required. A total of six
handicap accessible spaces are required, as three are existing and three additional
handicap spaces are required for the 68 new spaces provided. The development as
proposed will conform to Title 19 standards, providing 114 parking spaces and six
handicap spaces.
The proposed classroom building exterior will consist of variations in texture and color,
featuring colored bands of split-faced masonry and aluminum windows. The building
has a flat roofline with a parapet of varying height. The elevations are aesthetically
pleasing and compatible with the main building on the site as well as other institutional
buildings in the area.
The proposed classroom and parking lot additions to the existing primary school are
compatible with the existing school facilities and development on neighboring
properties. The permanent building will replace temporary structures on the site. In
addition, the expansion conforms to the policies and objectives of the School Facilities
Element of the Las Vegas 2020 Master Plan. Staff therefore recommends approval with
conditions.

SS
SDR-71691 [PRJ-71662]
With the proposed conditions of approval, the proposed addition to the school site
will be compatible with adjacent single family attached and multi-family
development.
The School Facilities Element of the Las Vegas 2020 Master Plan includes
policies and objectives highlighting cooperation with Clark County School District
in meeting the needs of the citys expanding population. This includes providing
equal educational opportunities in established neighborhoods, which is satisfied
by this proposal.

Access to the site will remain from James Bilbray Drive; however, additional
parking will be provided onsite. It is estimated that approximately 157 more
vehicles overall would be introduced into the area as a result of the proposed
development. James Bilbray Drive and Balzar Avenue are both under capacity at
this time.
City;
The proposed building will have a variegated concrete block exterior, while new
landscaping will consist of drought-tolerant trees and shrubs on the perimeter.
The proposed materials are appropriate for the area and the City.

The proposed elevations employ variation in color and roofline height for visual
interest, are aesthetically pleasing, and are harmonious and compatible with the
adjacent development.
The proposed improvements will be subject to code compliance and enforcement

to assure that they are constructed in a manner that will not endanger the public
health, safety or general welfare.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request to amend the General Plan land use designations and rezone three
parcels located at 5640, 5664 and 5686 North Rainbow Boulevard, approximately 85
feet north of Ann Road for a proposed 28,800 square-foot commercial development.
ISSUES
x A General Plan Amendment is requested to change the land use designations from
DR (Desert Rural Density Residential) and R (Rural Density Residential) to SC
(Service Commercial).
x A Rezoning is requested on this site from R-E (Residence Estates) to C-1 (Limited
Commercial).
x A Waiver is required to allow a zero-foot landscape buffer where eight feet is
required along the eastern perimeter of the subject site. Staff supports this request
due to an existing access easement for an existing well.
ANALYSIS
The subject sites are three adjacent single family detached residences which are
proposed to be merge into one lot for the development of a commercial building. In
order to accomplish this, the applicants are requesting to amend a portion of the
Northwest Sector of the Las Vegas 2020 Master Plan from R (Rural Density
Residential) and DR (Desert Rural Residential Density) to SC (Service Commercial),
and to rezone the three subject sites from R-E (Residence Estates) to C-1 (Limited
Commercial).
The applicant is proposing to construct a 28,800 square-foot commercial building. While

there is no specific tenant proposed for this development, the applicant is proposing the
development as a Retail/Grocery Establishment. If approved, the site could be
developed in any manner that is in accordance with the proposed C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district and to accommodate a different land use allowed by the C-
1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district. These land uses include, but are not limited to
the following:
x Banquet Facility
x Clinic
NE
x Health Club
x Rental Store
x Restaurant
x Trade School (Includes outdoor training for such skills as large equipment
operators)
x Wedding Chapel
Once the subject site is rezoned, the property does not have to be developed in the
manner proposed; however, a Site Development Plan Review would be required. A new
application could possibly include three separate commercial developments. In
addition, all land uses permitted as of right in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning
district would be allowed through the issuance of a business license. Additionally, all
land uses that are Conditional in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district would be
allowed to operate once the conditions set forth by Title 19.12 were met without review
through the public hearing process. The following Conditional Uses would be able to
meet the conditions set forth by Title 19.12:
x Auto Broker
x Auto Parts Store with Accessory Installation
x Auto Smog Check
x Automobile Repossession Agency
x Building Maintenance Service and Sales
x Check Cashing Services, Limited
x Drive Through
x Hospital
x Light Assembly & Fabrication (Wholesale Printing, Stained Glass Assembly, etc.)
x Mixed-Use Development (Subject to Residential Adjacency Standards)
x Multi-Family Residential (as part of a Mixed-Use development)
x Open Air Vending
x Recreational Vehicle and Boat Storage
x Secondhand Dealer (Limited to 5,000 square feet)
x Social Service Provider
x Teen Dance Center
x Thrift Shop
There are Permitted and Conditional land uses associated with the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district are too intense and inappropriate for direct adjacency to
large-lot homes that are zoned R-E (Residence Estates) within Clark County.
NE
Due to this direct adjacency of the subject sites to property under the jurisdiction of
Clark County, staff reached out to Clark Countys Comprehensive Planning Department
and received the following feedback from management:
Thanks for the opportunity to review the proposed project. The County opposes this
request as it is in conflict with the Citys proposed Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor
Plan and its effort to maintain the low density residential character of Rainbow
Boulevard north of Ann Road. Additional commercial in this corridor is not appropriate
and will negatively affect residents in this area.
Additionally, on December 21, 2016 an Interlocal agreement between the City of Las
Vegas and Clark County was entered into to establish a joint position on corporate
boundaries, planning and public facilities/services provision. Section Two (2) of this
document for Joint Land Use Planning identifies areas to remain residential and their
allowed densities. The existing residential homes directly north and east of the subject
sites are within Planning Area A1 of this interlocal agreement ,which states, During the
term of this Agreement, the areas identified as Planning Area A1 and A2 must remain
residential and designated at a density of no greater than 2.0 Units per Gross Acre on
the Parties respective comprehensive plans. The Parties agree that they shall not
accept any General Plan Amendments (GPA) nor amend their respective
comprehensive plans, rezone such properties or approve special or conditional use
permits to allow industrial or commercial uses or residential densities above 2.0 Units
per Gross Acre and each lot will maintain a minimum buildable net lot area of at least
18,000 square feet with a goal of at least 18,500 square feet. As a result of this
agreement, the surrounding properties to the north and east of the subject sites will
remain large-lot residential homes with a maximum density of two units per acre.
Although the subject site is not included in the agreement, the proposed intensity
allowed by the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district is not compatible with the
existing surrounding rural neighborhoods.
On February 15, 2017 the City Council adopted the Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor
Plan via Resolution 7-2017. This corridor plan includes the 1.6 mile section of Rainbow
Boulevard located between Rancho Drive to the south and the CC-215 terminus to the
north, and all adjacent properties along the right-of-way. The subject sites are included
in this plan. The plan seeks to preserve the essence of the small amounts of remaining
rural character along the Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor by emphasizing uses that
serve the corridor community and encouraging development patterns that align with the
single family neighborhoods. It is important to note that this plan does not exclude
commercial or multi-family residential uses along the corridor; rather it seeks to
encourage those uses to contribute to the needs of the neighborhoods and aesthetically
blend in with the community. The corridor was divided into three Character Areas, in
response to each areas unique physical form of the built environment, density, and land
use. The three Character Areas include Tropical-Rainbow, Ann-Rainbow, and Rancho-
Rainbow.
NE
The subject sites are located within the Ann-Rainbow Character Area. This area
accounts for the majority of the land share of the corridor (44%), with a majority of this
land zoned residential. This Character Area also includes the intersection of Ann Road
and Rainbow Boulevard. Three of the 17 commercially zoned parcels within the corridor
plan are three corners of this intersection. The subject sites are adjacent to one of the
three commercially zoned corners, the northeast corner of Ann Road and Rainbow
Boulevard. This corner is zoned C-1 (Limited Commercial). The applicant is requesting
to further encroach into the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district into the existing
rural neighborhood to the north.
As stated by the Rainbow North Corridor Plan, Non-residential development should be

limited to the portions of the plan area defined as:
a) Rancho-Rainbow; and
b) Ann-Rainbow, exclusively if adjacent to the Ann and Rainbow intersection
and south thereof.
This Site Development Guidelines of the Rainbow North Corridor Plan specifically
excludes the subject sites since they are north of the Ann and Rainbow intersection.
The preferred development outlined by the Rainbow North Corridor Plan for this section
of the Character Area is residential and include:
x Duplexes that retain the bulk and scale of the surrounding neighborhood
developments;
x Townhouses that are oriented to Rainbow Boulevard.
Whether it is commercial development or the types of residential development

mentioned above, according to the Las Vegas Water District (LVVWD), the subject
parcels are not currently served by LVVWD. They are served by an existing quasi-
municipal well and any water approval would require approval by the Nevada Division of
Environmental Protection (NDEP) Division of Water Resources.
The proposed landscape plan did not specify the spacing of the proposed trees, or the
specific placement of the proposed shrubs. Due to this, staff was unable to confirm the
proposed landscape plan met the minimum landscaping requirements set forth by Title
19.08. To ensure compliance, staff has added a Condition of Approval requiring one 24-
inch box tree to be planted every 20 feet on-center, with four, five-gallon shrubs for each
required tree.
Due to the existence of this quasi-municipal well at the rear of 5686 North Rainbow
Boulevard, an access easement is necessary to provide access to the well for
maintenance and service. This access easement prevents the proposed development
from providing the required eight-foot landscape buffer adjacent to the property line as
NE
required by Title 19 and a Waiver is necessary to allow the required eight-foot

landscape buffer to be located adjacent to the west perimeter of the access easement.
This extraordinary site condition prevents the applicant from meeting the minimum
standards for landscape buffers; therefore, staff supports the Waiver request.
The subject parcels are not currently served by LVVWD (Las Vegas Valley Water
District), as the subject parcels have an existing revocable permit well that is permitted
for domestic use only. Civil and plumbing plans will need to be submitted to LVVWD for
abandoning the well and the establishment of domestic and fire service from LVVWD.
Proof of parcel lot consolidation, or a commercial subdivision, is required prior to civil
plan approval by LVVWD if this application is approved.
The Department of Public Works has waived the Complete Streets requirement for the
proposed development if approved. The adjacent northeast corner of Ann Road and
Rainbow Boulevard is currently entitled for commercial development with approved half
street improvement requirements. If approved, the proposed commercial development
will be required to match the previously approved Site Development Plan Review (SDR-
58147) for half street improvements to the south for sidewalk and roadway consistency.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff finds the proposed General Plan Amendment, Rezoning, and Site Development
Plan Review to be incompatible with the existing residential development that surrounds
the subject sites. Staff does not support the continuing encroachment of commercial
development into a predominantly residential area, especially when the proposed
commercial development is directly adjacent to property zoned R-E (Rural Estates
Residential) within an RNP (Rural Neighborhood Preservation) area in Clark County
Nevada. In addition, the subject sites are within the North Rainbow Corridor Plan which
specifically recommends residential type uses such as townhomes and duplexes for the
subject sites if developed. For these reasons, staff is recommending denial of these
requests.
FINDINGS (GPA-67883)
Section 19.16.030(I) of the Las Vegas Zoning Code requires that the following
conditions be met in order to justify a General Plan Amendment:
1. The density and intensity of the proposed General Plan Amendment is

compatible with the existing adjacent land use designations,
NE
The density and intensity of the land uses permitted by the proposed SC (Service
Commercial) General Plan designation and associated zoning districts are not
compatible with the existing single family detached homes that are directly
adjacent to the north and east of the subject site. These existing home sites are
on an average over three-quarters of an acre each and are rural in nature.
Intense commercial development is not an appropriate buffer for properties
designated RNP (Rural Neighborhood Preservation) in Clark County.
2. The zoning designations allowed by the proposed amendment will be

compatible with the existing adjacent land uses or zoning districts,
The proposed Service Commercial General Plan designation supports the

proposed C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district along with the O (Office) and
P-O (Professional Office) zoning districts. While there are existing commercially
zoned properties to the west and south of the subject sites on the corners of Ann
Road and Rainbow Boulevard, this proposal would allow the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district to further encroach into an existing rural residential
neighborhood directly adjacent to the subject sites to the east and north consisting
of existing, large-lot single family residential homes zoned R-E (Rural Estates
Residential) within Clark County, Nevada. In addition, north of the subject sites
along both the west and east side of Rainbow Boulevard is detached, single family
homes spanning the entire northern length of Rainbow Boulevard until it
terminates at the I-215.
3. There are adequate transportation, recreation, utility, and other facilities to

accommodate the uses and densities permitted by the proposed General
Plan Amendment; and
If approved, half street improvements would be required for the proposed

development in order to provide adequate transportation facilities for a commercial
land use.
4. The proposed amendment conforms to other applicable adopted plans and

policies that include approved neighborhood plans.
The proposed General Plan Amendment does not comply with the North
Rainbow Corridor Plan, which specifically recommends residential type
development such as duplexes and townhomes for property adjacent to
Rainbow Boulevard, north of Ann Road.
NE
FINDINGS (ZON-67884)
In order to approve a Rezoning application, pursuant to Title 19.16.090(L), the Planning

Commission or City Council must affirm the following:
1. The proposal conforms to the General Plan.
If approved, the proposed C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district would conform
to the proposed General Plan designation of SC (Service Commercial).
2. The uses which would be allowed on the subject property by approving the
rezoning will be compatible with the surrounding land uses and zoning
districts.
The land uses permitted by the proposed C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district
include Banquet Facilities and Clinics. These uses are too intense for the area
north of Ann Road, and are not compatible for residential adjacency.
3. Growth and development factors in the community indicate the need for or
appropriateness of the rezoning.
Approximately one-quarter of a mile west of the subject sites is an existing

shopping center (Rio Vista Shopping Center) at the southwest corner of Ann Road
and Rio Vista Street that contains commercial space available for lease. While a
33-lot residential development is currently under construction north of the subject
sites, 33 additional single family homes does not indicate the need for additional
commercial space to further encroach into a predominantly residential area
outside of the intersection of Ann Road and Rainbow Boulevard. With no potential
tenant, and existing vacant commercial space within a quarter mile of the subject
sites, growth and development factors do not indicate the need for converting
existing residential homes into commercial property.

adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed zoning district.
If approved, half street improvements on Rainbow Boulevard would be required

for the proposed development in order to provide adequate transportation facilities
for a commercial land use.
NE

The proposed development would be directly adjacent to large-lot single family

detached homes to the north and east zoned R-E (Rural Estates Residential)
within Clark County, Nevada. Developing a commercial building capable of
accommodating intense commercial land uses does not provide an appropriate
buffer to rural single family homes. In addition, except for the immediate corner
lots located at the intersection of Ann Road and Rainbow Boulevard, the
remaining area north of this intersection is entirely residential except for a
preschool just north of the existing Walgreens on the northwest corner of Ann
Road and Rainbow Boulevard. The further encroachment of commercial land
uses into a predominantly residential area is not compatible with the existing
residential development in the area.
the Design Standards Manual, the Landscape, Wall and Buffer Standards,
If the General Plan Amendment and rezoning requests are approved, the
proposed development would be consistent with the minimum development
standards for the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district, but would be in direct
contradiction to the Rainbow North Corridor Plan which recommends residential
development such as duplexes and townhomes, not commercial development
and land uses.

Site access would be provided from Rainbow Boulevard, a 100-foot Primary

Arterial as classified by the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. At the
intersection of Ann Road and Rainbow Boulevard, Rainbow Boulevard is a fully
improved 100-foot right-of-way, but tapers down to approximately 50 feet due to
the fact that north of the intersection are existing lot-large single family homes that
are rural in nature and do not require the roadway to be improved. If this
application is approved, half street (road) improvements will be required, and
NE
Rainbow Boulevard will be 100 feet in width, only to immediately drop back down
to 50 feet in width since the remaining parcels on the block directly north of the
subject sites are still rural single family homes with no street improvements. This
will create a roadway that will negatively impact the predominantly residential
neighborhood traffic that exists north of Ann Road.
City;
The proposed building would have a stucco finish with an aluminum storefront and
ceramic tile accents to add the appearance of wood. The landscape materials
proposed include the Thornless Chilean Mesquite tree, Red Yucca shrubs, and
New Gold Lantana for accent plants. All of these materials are appropriate for the
area, and a desert climate.

The proposed building elevations are not obnoxious or unsightly, but are not
compatible with the existing residential development in the area. The 28,800
square-foot big box style building would not match the established residential
scale that exists to the immediate north and east of the subject sites. The
proposed commercial development would not create an orderly environment as
developing a commercial building and introducing intense land uses directly
adjacent to rural residential homes does not create an orderly or harmonious
environment for an existing residential neighborhood.
If approved, the proposed development would be subject to review during the

plan check and permitting process, as well as regular site inspections during
construction. Once constructed, future tenants would be subject to business
license review and continuing compliance once licensed. These measures are
in place to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare.

submittal requirements for a General Plan Amendment and Rezoning.
Staff conducted a pre-application meeting where the submittal
12/15/16
requirements for a Site Development Plan Review were discussed.
A neighborhood meeting was held at the Centennial Hills Community
Center/YMCA at 6601 North Buffalo Drive in Las Vegas. There were
19 members of the public, two representatives for the applicant, one
representative from the Ward 6 City Council Office and one member of
Department of Planning staff in attendance.
The applicant presented conceptual drawings that included a site plan

12/19/16 and elevations of the proposed Grocery Store. When asked about
who the tenant would be, the representatives indicated that a tenant
has not been secured at this time, but is being pursued.
Concerns:
x The neighbors present do not want any commercial, and were
not in support of this proposal.
x Do not want any more traffic along Rainbow Boulevard.
x
NE
x Questions were raised in regards to the well (water), the
representative informed the neighbors that a new commercial
project would not use the well, and the required clearance
around the well would remain for maintenance.
x Residents questioned and expressed concerns in regards to
what other types of land uses could go in to a C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district if a Grocery Store tenant was not
secured or eventually went out of business.
x Do not feel there is enough people and/or traffic to support a
Grocery Store in this area with other existing shopping centers
relatively close by.
x Residents felt that this rural portion of Rainbow Boulevard does
not need commercial, and that only the owners of the properties
included in this proposal would benefit from converting to
subject sites to commercial. They also feel commercial land
uses are being forced upon them even though the desire for it is
not there.
x Concern over increased use of the alleyway, including
deliveries and individuals using the commercial property to gain
entry into residents rear yards.
x The residents specifically purchased their homes because there
was no commercial existing or planned for the immediate area
at the time.
Staff noted that some of the property owners for the proposed project
may have been there, but were not clearly identified. There were no
residents present expressing support for this project. All who
attended and spoke during the meeting did not support the proposed
Grocery Store, the General Plan Amendment or Rezoning.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow an existing one-story front porch/carport

to be located eight feet from the front property line where 20 feet is required on property
zoned R-1 (Single Family Residential) located at 5708 Heron Avenue.
ISSUES
x All the work done that has created the need for the requested Variance was
completed without obtaining required building permits.
x This request is the result of an open Code Enforcement case (#177847) for non-
permitted structural addition on the subject site within the front yard setback area.
x The existing front porch/carport structure has an eight-foot front yard setback where
20 feet is required.
x On October 5th, 2017 the applicant submitted revised drawings which depict a 14-
foot front yard setback for the one-story front porch/carport. In addition, the applicant
requested an abeyance to the November 14th, 2017 Planning Commission Meeting.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is located in an R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning district. Per Title
19.06.070 this residential development has a minimum 20-foot front yard building
setback.
The subject property currently has an incomplete 650 square-foot one-story front
porch/carport addition on the southern perimeter of the principal dwelling which is
currently under construction. This resulted in a Code Enforcement case (#177847)
being opened on the subject property for non-permitted structural addition within the
front yard setback area.
During a routine site inspection conducted by staff it was noted that an existing front
yard porch/carport addition is currently attached to the eastern perimeter wall creating a
zero-foot side yard setback. Also, there is a metal storage structure attached to the
home in the rear yard, adjacent to the eastern perimeter wall creating a zero-foot side
yard setback. The applicant has indicated in the submitted justification letter that the
front yard porch/carport addition and metal storage structure located in the rear yard will
be moved to provide the required five-foot side yard setback, a condition has been
added to insure removal of these structures to the required five-foot setback. No unique
or extraordinary evidence has been presented to warrant the requested Variance. As
such, the hardship is self-imposed and therefore, staff recommends denial of this
request.
JB
VAR-71322 [PRJ-71193]
order to:


No evidence of a unique or extraordinary circumstance has been presented, that would

warrant the construction of the existing front yard porch/carport addition within the front
yard setback area. Alternative design of the existing front yard porch/carport structure
would allow conformance to the Title 19 requirements. In view of the absence of any
applicants hardship is preferential in nature, and it is thereby outside the realm of NRS

The Planning Commission voted (7-0) to hold VAR-71322 [PRJ-71193]
09/12/17
in abeyance to the November 14, 2017 Planning Commission meeting.

was erected without obtaining building permits.
Field Check
A field check conducted by staff observed the existing front yard
porch/carport addition that encroaches into the required 20-foot front
yard setback area of the subject site. In addition, staff noted that the
08/03/17 existing front yard porch/carport addition and a metal storage structure
attached to the home in the rear yard also encroaches into the
required five-foot setback areas located on the eastern perimeter of
the subject site.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a Special Use Permit for a 56-foot tall Off-Premise Sign at the
southwest corner of Martin L. King Boulevard and Charleston Boulevard.
ISSUES
x A Special Use Permit is required for the proposed 56-foot tall Off-Premise Sign
within the requested C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district. Staff recommends
denial of the request.
x A 56-foot Off-Premise Sign height is permitted due to the subject sites proximity
to an elevated roadway.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit for a proposed 56-foot tall Off-Premise
Sign. The Off-Premise Sign use is defined as Any sign advertising or announcing any
place, product, goods, services, idea or statement whose subject is available or located
at or on the lot, same site, or within the same Master Sign Plan area where the sign is
erected or placed. The proposed use meets the definition of an Off-Premise Sign.
1. No off-premise signs shall be erected in the public right-of-way.
The proposed sign is not located in the public right-of-way.
2. No off-premise sign certificate of any kind shall be issued for an existing or

proposed sign unless the sign is consistent with all requirements of this Title
(including those protecting existing signs).
The proposed sign meets all minimum requirements for an Off-Premise Sign.
3. Except as provided in Paragraph (12) below, off premise signs are permitted in
the C-1, C-2, C-M and M Zoning Districts only.
With the approval of the proposed rezoning to the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
district, the Off-Premise Sign is permitted with approval of a Special Use
Permit.
FS
SUP-71431 [PRJ-71426]
4. No off-premise sign shall have a surface area greater than 672 square feet,
except that an embellishment of not to exceed five feet above the regular
rectangular surface of the sign may be added if the additional area contains no
more than 128 square feet. Any embellishment may include lettering, text,
numerals or images, but only to the extent that such items do not exceed fifty
percent of any linear side of the sign.
The proposed sign is 672 square feet, with no additional embellishment.
5. Off-premise signs which are within 660 feet of the right-of-way and which can
be read from Interstate 15, US 95 from the north city limits to the Oran K.
Gragson Highway, the Oran K. Gragson Highway or Interstate 515 shall be no
closer than 750 feet (measured along the highway frontage) to any other off-
premise sign along the same frontage. Each side of the highway shall be
considered a separate frontage. The sign and all other off-premise signs not
oriented toward the same highway shall be no closer than 300 feet in any
direction to any other off premise sign, wherever located, including an off
premise sign that is situated outside the corporate boundaries of the City.
The proposed sign is located within 660 feet of Interstate 15, US 95 or

Interstate 515. The closest Off-Premise Sign is more than 2,000 feet to the
north of the proposed sign. The proposed sign meets all distance separation
criteria.
6. An off-premise sign within 150 feet of the right-of-way line of an elevated

freeway or highway to which it is oriented may be erected 30 feet above
the elevation of the elevated roadway surface nearest the sign.
The proposed sign is adjacent to the newly constructed Martin L. King

overpass, which is within the existing I-15 right-of-way. The portion of elevated
roadway that is nearest to the sign is 26 feet tall, which allows for a sign 56 feet
in height. The proposed sign complies with this requirement.
7. Off-premise signs shall not be located closer than 10 feet to the right-of-way line
of a freeway nor closer than 50 feet to the intersection of the present or future
rights-of-way of any two public roads, streets or highways.
The proposed sign will be located at least 10 feet to the right-of-way line of a
freeway nor closer than 50 feet to the intersection. As the Martin L. King
overpass does not intersect Charleston at grade, the intersection condition is
met.
FS
SUP-71431 [PRJ-71426]
8. No off-premise sign shall be erected or maintained within 660 feet of the

nearest travel lanes of the Summerlin Parkway from Station 499 + 78 to Station
601 + 30.
The proposed sign is more than 660 feet from the nearest travel lane of
Summerlin Parkway.
9. No off-premise sign shall be allowed within 300 feet from the nearest property
line of a lot in the U zoning district or any R zoning district.
The nearest R zoned property is located 600 feet to the south of the proposed
Off-Premise Sign. There are no properties with a U zoning district in the
vicinity of the proposed sign.
The applicant is applying for a Special Use Permit to install a 56-foot tall Off-Premise
Sign at 1515 Charleston Boulevard. While 40 feet is typically the maximum height for
such signs, the subject parcel is adjacent to 26-foot tall elevated portion of Martin L.
King Boulevard. Title 19 states that signs adjacent to an elevated roadway may
increase sign height to 30 feet over the elevated roadway which would permit a sign
height of 56 feet.
The proposed Off-Premise Sign adheres to all minimum code requirements; however,
the proposed sign is located at a prominent downtown intersection that serves as a
gateway between the Las Vegas Medical District and the Downtown Core. This high
profile intersection is not an appropriate location for the installation of a billboard sign.
In addition, there is an existing residential neighborhood located to the south subject
site, and the proposal to install an LED Off-Premise Sign in close proximity to these low
density residential neighborhoods fails to comply with Objective 2.4 of the Las Vegas
2020 Master Plan, which is to ensure that the quality of existing residential
neighborhoods is maintained and enhanced.
The proposal will add visual clutter to an important gateway between the Medical
District and Downtown Las Vegas, and will infringe on the quality of the existing
residential development to the south. The proposed sign is not compatible or
appropriate for this location, and staff recommends denial of the request.

SUP-71431 [PRJ-71426]

The proposed Off-premise Sign will add visual clutter to an important gateway
between the Medical District and Downtown Las Vegas, and will infringe on the
existing residential development to the south. The proposed sign is not
compatible or appropriate with existing and future land uses as identified by the
2020 and the 2045 Downtown Master Plan.
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of land use
proposed.

The proposed Off-Premise sign will not generate any additional site traffic.
The proposed sign will be required to be reviewed for building code compliance
and therefore will not compromise the public health, safety, and welfare or the
overall objectives of the General Plan.
The proposed sign meets all of the applicable conditions per Title 19.12.

A neighborhood meeting was held by the applicant at 5:30 PM at the
Grace Presbyterian Church. There were five members of the
development team, five staff members, and 36 members of the public
in attendance. The concerns raised included the following:
x An LED billboard is not appropriate for the area
x The proposed C-1 zoning would remove the buffer from the
08/27/17
neighborhood and more intense commercial uses.
x It was acknowledged that there was previous denial for a
billboard at this location.
x The parking lot is currently used as a cut-through to the
residential neighborhood.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a 19-lot single-family residential subdivision on approximately 2.49

acres located at 5097 Roberta Lane.
ISSUES
x The applicant has proposed to amend the General Plan land use designation of the
property from R (Rural Density Residential) to ML (Medium-Low Density
Residential). Staff does not support this request.
x The applicant has proposed to rezone the property from U (Undeveloped) [R (Rural
Density Residential)] to R-CL (Residential Compact-Lot). Staff does not support this
request.
x A Variance has been requested to allow an interior street to terminate in a dead-end
stub instead of a circular cul-de-sac. Staff does not support this request.
x A 19-lot Tentative Map request has been proposed for the subject site. Staff does
not support this request.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is proposing a 19-lot single-family residential development on

approximately 2.49 acres located at 5097 Roberta Lane. Adjacent land uses include
rural density single family residential to the south, east and west of the subject property
within Clark County. Across Roberta Lane to the north is a low density single family
residential subdivision within the City of Las Vegas.
The subject site is located within the Southwest Sector of the 2020 Master plan with an
R (Rural Density Residential) land use designation, which allows for a semi-rural
environment with a maximum density of 3.59 units per acre. The proposed ML (Medium
Low Density Residential) designation is intended to allow single-family detached homes,
including compact lots and zero lot lines, mobile home parks and two-family dwellings
with a maximum density of 8.49 units per acre.
The subject site is currently zoned U (Undeveloped), which is an interim zoning district
that can either be utilized as a holdover zoning district, or developed with single-family
residential with a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet. The request is to rezone the
FS
property to R-CL (Residential Compact-Lot), which is intended to provide for single-

family units and other customary residential uses with a minimum lot size of 3,000
square feet. The R-CL District is consistent with the proposed ML (Medium Low Density
Residential) category of the General Plan.
The submitted plan depicts 19 lots with a minimum lot size of 3,712, and a maximum lot
size of 4,095 square feet, which results in an overall density of 7.63 units per acre. The
subdivision receives access from both Apricot and Roberta Lanes. The residential units
facing west along Roberta Lane will have direct driveway access to the street. The
subdivision is served by internal 47-foot wide public streets, which include sidewalks
and one tree per lot as required for narrow lot residential streets. The site has a
connectively ratio of 1.50 were 1.30 is the minimum required, and the plans indicate
perimeter, interior, and retaining wall heights within the maximums allowed by Title 19.
This project will add approximately 181 trips per day on Roberta Lane, Apricot Lane,
Decatur Boulevard, and Smoke Ranch Road. Currently, Decatur Boulevard is at about
59 percent of capacity and Smoke Ranch is at about 39 percent of capacity. With this
project, these capacities are expected to remain unchanged. Counts are not available
for Roberta Lane or Apricot Lane in this area, but they are believed to be under
capacity. Based on Peak Hour use, this development will add into the area roughly 19
additional cars, or about one every three minutes.
The internal street identified as Avenue B terminates in a dead-end stub instead of a

circular cul-de-sac as required by Title 19.04. The proposed public street does not meet
the minimum Title 19 requirements, and a companion Variance has been requested to
provide relief from this requirement.
Apricot and Roberta Lanes are both 60-foot wide minor collector streets, which exempts
the site from the standard residential perimeter landscaping requirements. The plan
indicates a six-foot perimeter buffer area located along the entirety of the north property
line, and along a portion of the west property line, which exceeds the minimum required
for the site. The perimeter landscape areas are planted with palm trees, and no height
was specified on the plan. All perimeter landscaping is within one of the three common
lots on the site. Interior to the site, 24-inch box African Sumac shade trees have been
included at a ratio of one tree per lot as required by Title 19.04.
The existing land use designations and zoning districts in the immediate area are
predominantly intended for either rural or low density residential. An amendment of the
land use plan to the ML (Medium Low Density Residential) designation would allow for a
higher density that is not compatible with the existing rural and low density residential
development nature of the area. The allowable lot sizes permitted by the R-CL
FS
(Residential Compact Lot) will not be consistent or compatible with the surrounding
development. In addition, a Variance is required as the site is designed with a dead-
end stub instead of a circular cul-de-sac as required by Title 19.04. Staff recommends
denial of all requests.
CLARK COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF AVIATION
Comments received from the Clark County Department of Aviation included the
following:
x Federal Aviation Regulations (Title 14, Part 77) require that the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) be notified before the construction or alteration of any
building or structure greater than 200 feet in height ( 77.13(a)(1)) or that will
exceed a slope of 100:1 for a distance of 20,000 feet from the nearest point of
any airport runway greater than 3,200 feet in length ( 77.13 (a)(2)(i)). Such
notification allows the FAA to determine what impact, if any, the proposed
development will have upon navigable airspace, and allows the FAA to determine
whether the development requires obstruction marking or lighting.
x The proposed development will exceed the 100:1 notice requirement for the
North Las Vegas Airport (VGT). Therefore, as required by 14 CFR Part 77, the
FAA must be notified of the proposed construction or alteration.
x The applicant is required to file a valid FAA Form 7460-1, "Notice of Proposed
Construction or Alteration" with the FAA, in accordance with 14 CFR Part 77, or
submit to the Clark County Director of Aviation a Property Owners Shielding
Determination Statement and request written concurrence from the Clark County
Department of Aviation.
x No Building Permit or other construction permit shall be issued for any structure
greater than 35 feet above the surface of land that, based upon the FAAs 7460
airspace determination (the outcome of filing the FAA Form 7460-1), would (a)
constitute a hazard to air navigation, (b) would result in an increase to minimum
flight altitudes during any phase of flight (unless approved by the Department of
Aviation), or (c) would otherwise be determined to pose a significant adverse
impact on airport or aircraft operations.
x The applicant is advised that FAAs airspace determinations are dependent on

petitions by any interested party and the height that will not present a hazard as
determined by the FAA may change based on these comments.
FS
x The applicant is advised that the FAAs airspace determinations include

expiration dates and that the separate airspace determinations will be needed for
construction cranes or other temporary equipment.
x The applicant is advised that issuing a stand-alone noise disclosure statement to

the purchaser or renter of each unit in the proposed development and to forward
the completed and recorded noise disclosure statements to the Department of
Aviation's Noise Office is strongly encouraged. Additionally, the Federal Aviation
Administration will no longer approve remedial noise mitigation measures for
incompatible development impacted by aircraft operations which was constructed
after October 1, 1998, and funds will not be available in the future should the
residents wish to have their buildings purchased or soundproofed.
Conditions of approval have been added to ensure compliance with the requirements
identified by the Clark County Department of Aviation.

The proposed densities and intensity allowed by the proposed General Plan
Amendment to the ML (Medium Low Density Residential) designation is not
consistent or compatible with the rural and low density designations in the
surrounding area.

The zoning districts allowed by the proposed amendment allow for residential
products and lot sizes that are not consistent with the larger lot rural and low
density single-family residential zoning districts in the surrounding area.

Plan Amendment; and
There are adequate facilities to accommodate the uses and densities permitted by
the proposed amendment.
FS

policies.
The proposed amendment conforms to other applicable adopted plans and

policies.

With the approval of the related amendment to the ML (Medium Low Density
Residential), the proposed rezoning will conform to the General Plan
districts.
The rezoning will allow for residential products and densities that are not
compatible with the larger lot rural and low density residential uses and zoning
districts adjacent to the subject site.
There are no development factors in the immediate vicinity of the subject site that
indicates a need for a rezoning to the R-CL (Residential Compact Lot) district.
Moreover, the rezoning would allow for lot sizes and residential products that are
not compatible with the rural and low density nature of the area.

The site will receive access from Roberta and Apricot Lane, both 60-foot
secondary collectors. The street facilities are adequate in size to meet the
requirements of the proposed zoning district.
FS
order to:


No evidence of a unique or extraordinary circumstance has been presented, in that the

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by designing the residential development
with an interior street that terminates in a dead-end stub instead of a circular cul-de-sac.
Alternative site design would allow conformance to the Title 19 requirements. In view of
the absence of any hardships imposed by the sites physical characteristics, it is
concluded that the applicants hardship is preferential in nature, and it is thereby outside
the realm of NRS Chapter 278 for granting of Variances.

CITY OF LAS VEGAS
PLANNING COMMISSION AND CITY COUNCIL
RECOMMENDATIONS / COMMENTS
FROM: CLARK COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF AVIATION
APPLICATION NUMBERS: GPA-71525, ZON 71527, TMP-71528
PROJECT: BROOKS SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCES
LOCATION: 138-13-801-002
MEETING DATES: OCTOBER 10, 2017 PLANNING COMMISSION &

NOVEMBER 15, 2017, CITY COUNCIL
COMMENTS:
Federal Aviation Regulations (Title 14, Part 77) require that the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) be notified before the construction or alteration of any building or structure greater than
200 feet in height ( 77.13(a)(1)) or that will exceed a slope of 100:1 for a distance of 20,000
feet from the nearest point of any airport runway greater than 3,200 feet in length ( 77.13
(a)(2)(i)). Such notification allows the FAA to determine what impact, if any, the proposed
development will have upon navigable airspace, and allows the FAA to determine whether the
development requires obstruction marking or lighting.
The proposed development will exceed the 100:1 notice requirement for the North Las Vegas
Airport (VGT). Therefore, as required by 14 CFR Part 77, the FAA must be notified of the
proposed construction or alteration. The CCDOA requests that the City of Las Vegas impose
the conditions listed below for the project:
x Applicant is required to file a valid FAA Form 7460-1, "Notice of Proposed Construction
or Alteration" with the FAA, in accordance with 14 CFR Part 77, or submit to the Clark
County Director of Aviation a Property Owners Shielding Determination Statement
and request written concurrence from the Clark County Department of Aviation;
x No Building Permit or other construction permit shall be issued for any structure greater
than 35 feet above the surface of land that, based upon the FAAs 7460 airspace
determination (the outcome of filing the FAA Form 7460-1), would (a) constitute a
hazard to air navigation, (b) would result in an increase to minimum flight altitudes
during any phase of flight (unless approved by the Department of Aviation), or (c) would
otherwise be determined to pose a significant adverse impact on airport or aircraft
operations.
x Applicant is advised that FAAs airspace determinations are dependent on petitions by
any interested party and the height that will not present a hazard as determined by the
FAA may change based on these comments.
x Applicant is advised that the FAAs airspace determinations include expiration dates and
that the separate airspace determinations will be needed for construction cranes or other
temporary equipment.
Additionally, the proposed development lies just outside the 2015 AE-60 (60-65 DNL) noise
contour for North Las Vegas Airport (VGT), and is subject to significant aircraft noise and
continuing over-flights. Future demand for air travel and airport operations is expected to
increase significantly. Clark County intends to continue to upgrade VGT to meet future air
traffic demand, and nighttime operations may and will continue to occur at VGT.
x Applicant is advised that issuing a stand-alone noise disclosure statement to the purchaser
or renter of each unit in the proposed development and to forward the completed and
recorded noise disclosure statements to the Department of Aviation's Noise Office is
strongly encouraged. Additionally, the Federal Aviation Administration will no longer
approve remedial noise mitigation measures for incompatible development impacted by
aircraft operations which was constructed after October 1, 1998, and funds will not be
available in the future should the residents wish to have their buildings purchased or
soundproofed.

This project will add approximately 181 trips per day on Roberta Ln, Apricot Ln., Decatur Blvd., and Smoke Ranch Rd.
Currently, Decatur is at about 59 percent of capacity and Smoke Ranch is at about 39 percent of capacity. With this
project, these capacities are expected to remain unchanged. Counts are not available for Roberta or Apricot in this area,
but they are believed to be under capacity.
Based on Peak Hour use, this development will add into the area roughly 19 additional cars, or about one every three
minutes.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a 2,055 square-foot Restaurant, a drive-through, and parking lot
improvements on 0.68 acres at the southwest corner of Westwood Drive and
Charleston Boulevard.
ISSUES
x A General Plan Amendment is requested from O (Office) to SC (Service

Commercial) for all three subject parcels. Staff does not support this request.
x Rezoning from P-R (Professional Office and Parking) to C-1 (Limited
Commercial) is requested for two of the subject parcels as the subject parcel
adjacent to Charleston Boulevard is currently zoned C-1 (Limited Commercial).
Staff does not support this request.
x A Variance to allow 32 parking spaces where 37 are required has been
requested. Staff does not support this request.
x The drive-through use is a conditional use within a C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district; however, the drive-through is not screened per the requirements
of Title 19.08, and therefore a Special Use Permit is required. Staff does not
support this request.
x A Site Development Plan review has been requested to allow for a 2,055 square-
foot restaurant with several perimeter landscape waivers, a building orientation
waiver, and a parking lot landscaping exception. Staff does not support these
requests.
x The proposed Rezoning and Site Development Plan Review will expunge a
number of conditions of approval that were included with a 1995 Rezoning and
Plot Plan Review (Z-171-94) for the existing parking lot. The conditions were
intended to provide protections for the surrounding residential neighborhood.
ANALYSIS
All three of the subject parcels are currently designated O (Office) which provides for
small lot office conversions as a transition along primary and secondary streets from
residential and commercial uses, and for large planned office areas. The proposed SC
(Service Commercial) allows low to medium intensity retail, office, or other commercial
uses that serve primarily local area patrons and that do not include more intense
general commercial characteristics. Examples of development for this land use
FS
designation include shopping centers, theaters, and other places of public assembly.
The Service Commercial land use designation may also allow mixed-use development
with a residential component.
The subject site is located within Study Area 1B of the Rancho Charleston Land Use
Study & Strategic Plan. Area 1B was designated as O (Office) to ensure that there was
a consistent land use buffer between the commercial uses north of Charleston
Boulevard and the residential to the south. One of the goals stated by the Strategic
Plan is, to ensure that low-density residential land uses within mature neighborhoods
can exist in close proximity to higher density residential, mixed-use, or non-residential
land uses by mitigating adverse impacts where feasible..
The current zoning district of the two parcels adjacent to residentially zoned property is
P-R (Professional Office and Parking). This zoning designation allows for the existing
office parking lot while also providing the single family residences to the south a buffer
from the more intense commercial uses that currently exist adjacent to Charleston
Boulevard. Amending the zoning for the subject site to C-1 (Limited Commercial) would
be inappropriate as it would allow for the introduction of medium intensity commercial
uses directly adjacent to existing single family residential uses.
The existing P-R (Professional Office and Parking District) is an appropriate zoning for a
parking lot and the proposed General Plan Amendment and Rezoning would allow more
intense commercial uses on a site directly adjacent to single family residential. It is
acknowledged that the request to the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district is
required in order to allow for the proposed restaurant drive-through as it is currently
designed; however, a redesign of the site would make it possible to accommodate the
restaurant on the existing C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoned parcel while retaining the P-
R (Professional and Office) zoned parcels for the proposed parking lot and thus
retaining the buffer for the adjacent single family residential. Staff finds the proposed
General Plan Amendment and Rezoning request do not support the goals specified by
the Rancho Charleston Land Use Study and Strategic Plan, nor are they compatible
with the existing surrounding area; therefore, staff is recommending denial of both
requests.
The Site Development Plan Review is for a 2,055 square-foot restaurant with a drive-
through at the southwest corner of Charleston Boulevard and Westwood Drive. The
subject site is currently developed with an office building and associated parking lot.
The restaurant is proposed within the existing parking area located at the northeast
portion of the site. The provided floorplans depict 700 square feet of seating area, and
1,355 square feet of back-of-house area. Access is proposed via drives from both
Westwood Drive and Pahor Drive, and 32 parking spaces are being provided where 37
are required. One loading zone is being provided as required by Title 19. The applicant
has requested a Variance application to provide relief from Title 19 parking
requirements.
FS
The site plan indicates a drive-through for the proposed restaurant. A drive-through is a
Conditional Use within the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district; however, it is not
screened per the landscaping requirements of Title 19.08, and therefore a Special Use
Permit is required.
The drive-through use is defined as The use of a dedicated drive lane that, incidental to
a principal use, provides access to a station, such as a window, door or mechanical
device, from which occupants of a motor vehicle receive or obtain a product or service.
The proposed use meets the definition of a drive-through as it is intended for patrons to
order and obtain meals while remaining in their vehicle.
Title 19.12 requires that the drive-through be screened per the landscaping
requirements of Title 19.08. The subject site does not meet the minimum landscape
buffering requirements along the north and east property lines, which are adjacent to
the proposed drive-through. Without adequate landscape buffering, the drive through
stacking lanes are fully exposed which results in unsightly views from both Charleston
Boulevard and Westwood Drive. In addition, the subject site is located within the project
limits for the City of Las Vegas Charleston Boulevard capital improvement project,
which will enhance the pedestrian realm with the installation of wider sidewalks, street
trees and other amenities between Rancho Drive and Martin L. King Drive. Once the
City completes the project, the enhanced pedestrian path will be directly adjacent to the
unscreened drive-though, exacerbating the visual impacts and possibly introducing
pedestrian-auto conflicts due to the drive-through being in such close proximity to the
sidewalk. This corridor improvement project constitutes a significant monetary
investment on the part of the City of Las Vegas, and consideration should be given to
the design of the subject site and how it fits within the corridor. Staff recommends
denial of the Special Use Permit request.
The applicant is requesting a waiver to allow the proposed building to not be oriented
towards the corner and street frontage as required on corner lots in order to
accommodate the proposed drive-though. In addition to the aforementioned lack of
screening adjacent to the proposed drive-though, the location of the building and drive-
through contradicts the pedestrian friendly policies included within the Mobility section of
2045 Downtown Master Plan. Once the City of Las Vegas constructs the proposed
pedestrian improvements along Charleston Boulevard, not only will the automobile
stacking lanes be directly adjacent to the pedestrian path, but there will also be no
pedestrian access to the restaurant from the street frontage. The auto-centric design of
the site negates any benefits gained from the pedestrian enhancements planned at this
location, and it does not compliment the significant pedestrian investments that the City
is making along the Charleston Boulevard corridor.
FS
A redesign of the site with the building located to the corner of the site would further the
goals of a pedestrian friendly environment stated within the 2045 Downtown Master
Plan, alleviate the screening and pedestrian conflict issues associated with the drive-
through located adjacent the street frontage, compliment the Citys proposed capital
improvements planned for Charleston Boulevard, and alleviate the need for the
requested waiver. Staff recommends denial of the request.
The provided landscape plan does not depict the required perimeter landscape buffer
widths along the east, north and west property lines. Along the east property line, eight
feet is being provided where 15 feet is required; along the north property line, ten feet is
being provided where 15 feet is required; and along portions of the east property line,
two feet is being provided where 15 feet is required. Waivers have been requested for
the reduction of perimeter landscape buffer widths along these areas. The landscape
plan also does not depict the required amount of street trees along the north and east
property lines. Along the north property line, three trees are being provided where six is
required, and along the east property line, one street tree is being provided where
seven is required. A waiver has been requested to allow a reduction of required street
trees. An exception has been requested to allow three parking lot landscaping islands
where six is required. The existing landscaping located adjacent to the office building
and along the south property line will remain in place as is and will not be altered.
The perimeter landscape buffer waivers along the north and east property lines are a
result of the placement of the proposed drive-through. The drive-through location
encroaches into the required buffer areas and reduces the screening of the drive-
through which results in the requirement the related Special Use Permit as well as the
buffer width waivers. The reduction of buffer width along the west property line is
required to accommodate the adjacent handicapped parking space. The reduction of
street trees is required due to the narrowed buffer area widths along the east property
line and required site visibility zones along the north property line. The parking lot
landscape islands are being reduced in order to accommodate for additional parking.
Staff recommends denial of all requests as a redesign of the site and relocation or
removal of the drive-through would allow for conformance to Title 19 landscape
requirements.
The provided elevations depict a building constructed of stucco and cultured stone with
varied flat rooflines of up to 24 feet. The building contains glazing typical of a fast-foot
type restaurant. The site is subject to Residential Ardency Standards along the south
property line and must comply with the 3 to 1 proximity slope requirements outlined in
Title 19.08. The proposed building is approximately 24 feet in height closest to the
residential property, which requires a 72-foot setback. The building is setback
approximately 86 feet and is in conformance with the residential adjacency standards.
In addition, trash enclosures are required to be at least 50 feet from the protected use.
The proposed enclosure is approximately 55 feet from the single family residence to the
south, and is in conformance with this requirement.
FS
In 1995, a Rezoning and Plot Plan Review (Z-171-94) was approved by the City Council
for the existing site parking lot. The proposed rezoning from R-1 to P-R (Professional
Office and Parking District) was approved in order to accommodate a proposed parking
lot while still providing a neighborhood buffer from more intense commercial uses along
Charleston Boulevard. The following conditions of approval were included to provide
protection for the adjacent residential neighborhoods:
x Prohibition of vehicular access to Pahor Dirve

x The construction a six-foot tall decorative wall along the east, south and west
property lines.
x The installation of five-feet of landscaping, including trees and shrubs, located at
the exterior of the required walls along the east and west property lines.
x The site was required to utilize the existing driveway at Westwood Drive and
Charleston Boulevard.
x The installation of an eight-foot landscape buffer area on the interior side of the
south wall.
The proposed Rezoning and Site Development Plan Review will expunge these
conditions which were intended to provide protection for the adjacent residential
neighborhoods. Specifically, approval of the request will allow for access to Pahor
Dirve, the removal of the existing decorative walls and mature landscaping along the
east and west property lines, and the addition of a new driveway from Westwood
Avenue. The wall and landscaping along the south property line will remain as it
currently exists and continue to screen the parking area from the single family
residential homes.
The proposed development is too intense for the proposed location, and is being
overbuilt as evidenced by the need for a Special Use Permit, Variance, and numerous
waivers. The development proposes a drive-through that fronts both Charleston
Boulevard and Westwood Drive without adequate landscape screening, does not
compliment the anticipated capital improvements for Charleston Boulevard, and is
contrary to the policies outlined within the Mobility section of the 2045 Downtown Master
Plan. The approval of the request will result in the removal of neighborhood protections
included with the 1995 rezoning and plot plan approval, including the removal of screen
walls and mature landscaping along Westwood Drive and Pahor Drive. Staff
recommends denial of the Site Development Plan Review request.

Las Vegas Valley Water District

These parcels are each independently served by the Las Vegas Valley Water District
(LVVWD) and only APN 162-04-110-017 has the required backflow preventer per NAC
445A.67195. The proposed site plan would require a consolidation of parcels, or the
recordation of a commercial subdivision, prior to LVVWD civil plan approval. Civil and
plumbing plans will need to be submitted to LVVWD for domestic meter sizing, fire flow
availability and backflow retrofit.

The subject site shares the southern property line with existing single family
residential with a land use designation of L (Low Density Residential). Amending
the land use designation to SC (Service Commercial) would allow the introduction
of medium intensity commercial uses which are not appropriate adjacent to low
density single family residential.

The requested C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning designation will allow for
commercial uses that are not appropriate for this location as it is directly adjacent
to single family residential.

The proposed amendment does not conform to the Rancho Charleston Land Use

districts.
Uses allowed by the C-1 (Limited Commercial) district are too intense for parcels
adjacent to single family residential. The uses permitted in the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) are not compatible with the surrounding residential land uses and
zoning districts to the south of the subject site.
Growth and development factors in the community do not indicate the need for
commercial uses to encroach upon the existing single family residential
neighborhood to the south. Moreover, with a redesign of the proposed restaurant
and drive-through, the existing P-R (Professional Office and Parking) zoning
district could accommodate the depicted parking lot while still providing a buffer
from more intense commercial uses along the Charleston Boulevard frontage.

The development will introduce additional traffic onto Pahor Drive and
Westwood Avenue, which are primary intended to handle neighborhood traffic;
however, they are adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed
zoning district.
FS
order to:



applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by overbuilding the site and not providing
adequate parking for the proposed uses. Alternative design would allow conformance
to the Title 19 requirements. In view of the absence of any hardships imposed by the
sites physical characteristics, it is concluded that the applicants hardship is preferential
in nature, and it is thereby outside the realm of NRS Chapter 278 for granting of
Variances.

The inclusion of the drive-through correlates with the need for an inappropriate
Rezoning, a parking Variance, and a site design that requires multiple waivers.
As such, the proposed drive-through cannot be conducted in a manner that is
FS
harmonious and compatible with the existing and future land uses as projected by
the General Plan.
proposed.
The drive-through use is typically a Conditional use in the C-1 (Limited

Commercial) zoning district; however, the subject site requires a Special Use
Permit due to the lack of landscape screening per Title 19.08. In addition, the
inclusion of the drive-through also correlates with the need for an inappropriate
Rezoning, a parking Variance, and multiple Site Development Plan Review design
waivers. As such, it has been determined that the subject site is not physically
suitable for the proposed use.

The development will introduce additional traffic onto Pahor Drive and Westwood
Avenue, which are primary intended to handle neighborhood traffic; however, they
are adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed use.
While approval of the Special Use Permit does not compromise public safety or
welfare, the proposed drive-through is not consistent with the Mobility Section of
the 2045 Downtown Master Plan, and it is not desirable to have a drive through
stacking lane in such close proximity to the pedestrian path along Charleston
Boulevard.
The drive-Through use is a conditional use within a C-1 (Limited Commercial)

zoning district; however, the drive-Through is not screened per the
requirements of Title 19.08, and therefore a Special Use Permit is required.
There are no additional conditions required with the Special Use Permit.
FS

The proposed development is too intense for the proposed location and is being
overbuilt as evidenced by the need for an inappropriate Rezoning, Special Use
Permit, parking Variance, and numerous design waivers. The proposal is not
compatible with the adjacent residential development to the south of the subject
site.
The proposed development is not consistent with Title 19 as evidenced by the

required landscape and building orientation waivers. The location of the building
and drive-through also contradicts the pedestrian friendly policies outlined within
the Mobility Section of 2045 Downtown Master Plan.

The development will introduce additional traffic onto Pahor Drive and Westwood
Avenue, which are primary intended to handle neighborhood traffic. The
rezoning/plot plan review (Z-171-94) for the existing parking lot contained
conditions of approval that prohibited access to Pohor Drive, and which will be
expunged with the approval of this proposal.
City;
With the approval of the requested landscape waivers, the building and
landscaping materials will be appropriate for the area and for the City.

The building orientation and the location of the proposed drive through creates an
unsightly and undesirable view of the vehicle stacking lane as viewed from both
Charleston Boulevard and Westwood Drive, and the lack of the required perimeter
landscaping along multiple property lines exacerbates these issues. As such, the
development is not harmonious or compatible with development in the area.
FS
The building will be subject to regular building and licensing inspection and
therefore the public safety and general welfare will be protected.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for General Plan Amendment to the SC (Service Commercial) land use
designation, a Rezoning to the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district, and a Site
Development Plan Review for a 308 space parking lot at the southwest corner of
Charleston Boulevard and Westwood Drive.
ISSUES
x A General Plan Amendment is requested from O (Office) to SC (Service

Commercial). Staff does not support this request.
x Rezoning from R-4 (High Density Residential), R-1 (Single Family Residential),
and R-E (Residence Estates) to C-1 (Limited Commercial) is requested for the
four subject parcels. Staff does not support this request.
x A Site Development Plan Review is being requested for a 308 space parking lot.
Staff does not support this request.
x Two Variance applications have been requested to allow a rezoning to the C-1
(Limited Commercial) zoning district for parcels with less than a 100-foot lot
width. Staff does not support this request.
ANALYSIS
All four of the subject parcels are currently designated O (Office) which provides for
small lot office conversions as a transition along primary and secondary streets from
residential and commercial uses, and for large planned office areas. The proposed SC
(Service Commercial) land use designation allows low to medium intensity retail, office,
or other commercial uses that serve primarily local area patrons and that do not include
more intense general commercial characteristics. Examples of development for this land
use designation include shopping centers, theaters, and other places of public
assembly. The Service Commercial land use designation may also allow mixed-use
development with a residential component.
The subject site is located within Study Area 1B of the Rancho Charleston Land Use
Study & Strategic Plan. Area 1B was designated as O (Office) to ensure that there was
a consistent land use buffer between the commercial uses north of Charleston
Boulevard and the residential to the south. One of the goals stated by the Strategic
Plan is, to ensure that low-density residential land uses within mature neighborhoods
can exist in close proximity to higher density residential, mixed-use, or non-residential
land uses by mitigating adverse impacts where feasible.
FS
A rezoning to the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district is being requested, which is
intended to provide most retail shopping and personal services. The current zoning
districts of the four subject parcels are R-4 (High Density Residential), which is intended
for apartments or other high density residential products, R-1 (Single Family
Residential), which is intended for standard detached residential products, and R-E
(Residence Estates), which is intended for large lot (two per acre) residential home
sites. The existing underlying General Plan designation of O (Office) allows for either
the P-O (Professional Office) or O (Office) zoning districts, which are intended for
professional office and other low intensity commercial uses.
A rezoning to the P-O (Professional Office) or O (Office) would allow the development of
a surface parking lot as a conditional use while still conforming to the underlying O
(Office) land use designation and the intent of the Rancho Charleston Land Use Study
& Strategic Plan. A rezoning to a district that is consistent with the existing O (Office)
land use designation would also allow for the site to remain as a buffer from the more
intense commercial uses adjacent to Charleston Boulevard.
The C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district requires a minimum lot width of 100 feet;
however, the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoned parcels at 1833 West Charleston
Boulevard (162-04-111-017) and 1109 Westwood Drive (162-04-111-016) have lot
widths of only 67 feet, and Variances have been requested to provide relief from this
requirement. A rezoning to the aforementioned P-O (Professional Office) district would
alleviate the need for the associated lot width Variances as the minimum lot width for
the district is 60 feet.
The subject site is located adjacent to single family residential along the western and
southern parcel lines, and the uses allowed by the SC (Service Commercial) land use
designation and C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district are not compatible in such
close proximity to single family homes. Less intense zoning districts that are compatible
with the existing underlying O (Office) land use designation could be utilized to
accommodate the intended parking lot use while maintaining a buffer from more intense
commercial uses. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Rezoning request do
not support the goals specified by the Rancho Charleston Land Use Study and Strategic
Plan, nor are they compatible with the existing surrounding area; therefore, staff is
recommending denial of both requests.
The site plan depicts a 308 space surface parking lot on four parcels located at the
southeast corner of Charleston Boulevard and Westwood Drive. The site will receive
access via drives from Charleston Boulevard, Westwood Drive, and Shadow Lane. The
applicant indicated on the justification letter that access to the parking lot will be
monitored by electric meter and on-site security rather than by a controlled gate.
FS
The landscape plan generally depicts the required landscape buffer widths along all
interior and street fronting property lines with the exception of the areas fronting Ellis
Avenue where an eight-foot width is provided where 15 feet is required. The landscape
plan also depicts a buffer width deficiency on the south side of the proposed drive from
Westwood Drive. The plan depicts six feet of buffer area where eight is required
adjacent to a residential property that is not within the scope of this development. The
landscaping on the north side of the drive will be installed when the future pad site is
developed. As no landscape waivers were requested by the applicant, conditions of
approval have been included to ensure compliance with all landscape buffer width
requirements.
Within all perimeter landscape buffer areas excepting those fronting Charleston
Boulevard and Shadow Lane, five-gallon shrubs are depicted instead of the required 24-
inch box trees. 24-inch box trees are required every 20 feet on center adjacent to street
frontages or residential zoned properties, and one every 30 feet adjacent to
commercially zoned property. As no landscape waivers were requested by the
applicant, a condition of approval has been added to ensure that the correct number of
24-inch box trees are installed within these areas. The landscaping adjacent to the area
shown as a future building pad will be required to be installed when that site is
developed.
The landscape plan generally depicts the required amount of parking lot landscape
islands; however, the plans shows the islands planted with 5-gallon shrubs rather than
the required 24-inch box trees and four five-gallon shrubs. A condition of approval has
been added to ensure compliance with this requirement.
The proposed parking lot is not an appropriate use in such close proximity to single
family residential neighborhoods. A rezoning to the P-O (Professional Office) or O
(Office) would allow the development of a surface parking lot as a conditional use while
still conforming to the underlying O (Office) land use designation and the intent of the
Rancho Charleston Land Use Study & Strategic Plan. Staff recommends denial of the
request.
These parcels are currently served by Las Vegas Valley Water District (LVVWD) but do
not have the required backflow prevention per NAC 445A.67195. Civil plans will need
to be submitted to LVVWD for domestic meter sizing and backflow retrofit. Proof of
parcel lot consolidation, or recordation of a commercial subdivision, will be required
prior to civil plan approval by LVVWD.
FS

The subject parcels share a western and southern property line with existing
single family residences with land use designations of L (Low Density Residential)
or DR (Desert Rural Density Residential). Amending the land use designation to
SC (Service Commercial) would allow the introduction of medium intensity
commercial uses which are not appropriate adjacent to low and rural density
single family residential.

The requested C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning designation will allow for
commercial uses that are not appropriate for this location as it is directly adjacent
to single family residential.

policies.
The proposed amendment does not conform to the Rancho Charleston Land Use
Study and Strategic Plan which specifically recommended the subject sites for an
O (Office) land use designation in order to provide an adequate buffer to the area
residents and prevent the further encroachment of more intense land uses into
their residential neighborhood.

FS
to the proposed SC (Service Commercial) land use designation.
districts.
Uses allowed by the C-1 (Limited Commercial) district are too intense for parcels
adjacent to single family residential. The uses permitted in the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) are not compatible with the surrounding residential land uses and
zoning districts to the south and west of the subject site.
Growth and development factors in the community do not indicate the need for
commercial uses to encroach upon the existing single family residential
neighborhood to the south and west. Moreover, a parking facility is a conditional
use in the P-O (Professional Office) or O (Office) zoning districts, which could
accommodate the proposed parking lot while still ensuring a buffer from more
intense commercial uses along the Charleston Boulevard frontage.

Charleston Boulevard is adequate in size to meet the requirements of the

proposed zoning district. Shadow Lane south of Charleston Boulevard and
Westwood Drive are predominantly used for residential traffic.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Variance to allow the construction of a 10-foot tall CMU (Concrete
Masonry Wall) along the north, south, and east perimeters where 8 feet is the maximum
height allowed; and a ten-foot tall wrought iron fence along the west perimeter where 5
feet is the maximum height allowed.
ISSUES
x A Variance is required to allow 10-foot tall perimeter walls for the north, south,
and east perimeters where 8 feet is the maximum allowed in the C-2 (General
x A Variance is required to allow a 10-foot tall wrought iron fence for the west
perimeter (front) where 5 feet is the maximum height allowed in the C-2 (General
ANALYSIS
Located on the northeast corner of Monroe Avenue and C Street, the subject site currently
contains a building in the southwest corner of the site. As mentioned in the justification
letter, the applicant intends to construct a new building on the site, but in the meantime
would like to secure the site with the proposed 10-foot tall CMU decorative wall along the
north, south, and east perimeters, with a 10-foot tall decorative wrought iron fence along
the east perimeter.
The CMU wall would contain 24-inch pilasters every 18 feet on center, with the top 24-
inches of the wall containing split face CMU for a decorative effect and to meet the 20
percent contrasting material set forth by Title 19 for CMU perimeter walls. The wrought
iron proposed for the east perimeter would contain an ornamental finial (top) every seven
feet with three rows of horizontal iron for structural stability. Entry to the site would be
provided by a pedestrian gate adjacent to C Street, or the front of the site, and a larger
gate along the north perimeter adjacent to the alley, to allow vehicular traffic onto the site.
Title 19 allows a maximum height of eight feet for perimeter walls and fences along the
side and rear property lines, and only five feet for the front property line. Since the subject
site is a corner lot, Title 19 defines the front property line of a corner lot as the side that
fronts on a street or drive and has the lesser dimension in width as the front of the lot. In
this instance, the frontage along C Street is the front.
NE
VAR-71504 [PRJ-71456]
Title 19 also prohibits solid screen walls from being constructed in the front yard of a
commercial or industrial property. Alternatively, Title 19 allows a maximum height of 5
feet, with only the bottom 2 feet permitted to be solid and the remaining 3 feet to be 50
percent open. The applicant has proposed a ten-foot tall wrought iron decorative fence
for the front of the property. The proposed wrought iron fence would not contain the 2-
foot solid base and would be provide the 50 percent open component required by Title
19.
While it is not required as part of this request, the applicant has demonstrated on the
site plans landscape plantings along the west and south perimeter adjacent to the right-
of-way. As stated in the justification letter, the applicant intends on developing the site in
the future and would like to install the landscaping in conjunction with the perimeter
walls and fence. Required landscape buffers will be addressed when the applicant
proposes development for the subject site in the future.
Staff finds the requested Variance requests to be a self-imposed hardship and is

recommending denial of both requests.
order to:



applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing perimeter walls that exceed
NE
VAR-71504 [PRJ-71456]
the maximum height allowed within the C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district.
Proposing a wall height that conforms to Title 19 requirements would allow conformance
and not require a Variance. In view of the absence of any hardships imposed by the
sites physical characteristics, it is concluded that the applicants hardship is preferential
in nature, and it is thereby outside the realm of NRS Chapter 278 for granting of
Variances.

The Planning Commission voted (7-0) to hold VAR-71504[PRJ-71456]
10/10/17
in abeyance to the November 14, 2017 Planning Commission meeting.


There are no related building permits or business licenses for the subject site.
Staff conducted a pre-application meeting where the landscape buffer
08/17/17
standards and wall height limitations were discussed.
Field Check
During a routine field check performed by staff several storage
containers were noted on site. On top of one of the storage containers
was part of a large vehicle, and wooden pallets were observed
08/31/17 discarded on the site. Outdoor storage is permitted as an accessory
use in the C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district, and it must be
screened. The site has been reported to Code Enforcement for further
investigation.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant has requested a Waiver to allow no street lights on Amulet Ridge Court,
Irish Cliffs Court and Tropical Parkway, west of Alpine Ridge Way.
ISSUES
x A Waiver is required to not install required street lights on Amulet Ridge Court, Irish
Cliffs Court and Tropical Parkway, west of Alpine Ridge Way. Staff does not support
this request.
ANALYSIS
On May 18th, 2016 the City Council approved a request for a Waiver (WVR-63099) to
allow no street lights on Michelli Crest Way, Antique Ridge Court, Shrine Ridge Court, El
Campo Grande Avenue and Tropical Parkway, east of Alpine Ridge Way; and a Tentative
Map (TMP-63100) for a 49-lot single-family residential subdivision on the subject site.
The applicant is requesting the proposed Waiver (WVR-71797) to allow no street lights on
Amulet Ridge Court, Irish Cliffs Court and Tropical Parkway, west of Alpine Ridge Way.
Staff does not support this requested Waiver as it is does meet the required complete
street standards outlined in Title 19.02.240, which requires street lighting for public streets
to be designed, installed or upgraded in accordance with City standards.
FINDINGS (WVR-71797)
When a site is developed in the City of Las Vegas, it is customary to require the
installation of all incomplete improvements surrounding the site so they match what
exists in the surrounding area. When this site came in previously, the request was to
only defer streetlights on the east side of Alpine Ridge Way. This request was
approved by City Council on 5/18/2016 under Waiver (WVR-63099). Although
streetlights are not customary in this area, the City is currently working on building
complete streets throughout the City. Staff does not support this requested Waiver as it
does not meet the required complete street standards outlined in Title 19.02.240, which
requires street lighting for public streets to be designed, installed or upgraded in
accordance with City standards.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to construct a new 34,440 square-foot classroom building at

an existing elementary public school at 1300 Pauline Way. The building will be two
stories and will include 22 classrooms, restrooms and storage facilities. Construction
will displace a portion of the existing turf and playground areas at the northeast corner
of the site, as well as replace existing portable classrooms. The existing parking lot
would be extended to the north and eliminate access from Franklin Avenue and Pauline
Way.
ISSUES
which generally allows the establishment of development standards through
approval of a Site Development Plan Review. However, because the site is adjacent
to R-1 (single Family Residential) zoned properties, development is subject to
specific Title 19 standards.
x The site is parking impaired; however, a sufficient number of additional parking
spaces to meet the requirements of the proposed building are not being provided. A
Variance is required to allow 17 new parking spaces where 66 additional spaces are
required. Staff recommends denial of the variance.
x A Variance from Title 19.10.020 is required to allow a 39-foot building height where
35 feet is allowed, a two-foot perimeter landscape buffer along a portion of the east
property line where 15 feet is required and no parking lot landscape islands where
four islands are required. Staff recommends denial of the variance.
x The applicant is unable to add trees within the landscape buffer along the east
property line north of Franklin Avenue due to an existing NV Energy easement that
contains overhead power lines. An alternative landscape design is proposed that
includes shrubs within the easement area and additional trees within the
development.
x The site consists of two separate contiguous parcels that must be consolidated into
one so that the proposed building does not cross a lot line. The mapping action
shall be completed and recorded prior to the issuance of any building permits. A
condition of approval addresses this issue.
SS
ANALYSIS
permanent building.
Site Development is subject to LVMC Title 19, with emphasis on 19.10.020 with regard
to C-V zoned properties. Per Title 19.10.020, the development standards for a C-V
(Civic) property are established by approval of a Site Development Plan Review.
However, when adjacent to a residential use in certain residential zoning districts,
additional standards are applied. Those standards include the maximum building height
of the R-E (Residence Estates) District, the landscape buffer standards of the P-O
(Professional Office) District, and the Title 19.08 commercial and industrial parking
design standards. If these specific standards cannot be met, a variance is required. In
this case, the school property is adjacent to single-family residential parcels to the south
and east zoned R-1 (Single Family Residential).
The 35-foot maximum building height required by Title 19.10.020 is proposed to be

exceeded by approximately four feet, a 10 percent deviation. In this particular case, the
proposed 34,440 square-foot building would be set back approximately 55 feet from the
R-1 zoned residential properties to the east. At the proposed height of 38 feet, 2
inches, the building setback does not meet (but is not strictly subject to) the 3:1
distance-to-height ratio normally applied to nonresidential developments outside of the
C-V zoning district. The building would be separated from one residential property
located along Franklin Avenue by an existing 45-foot wide landscape buffer within a
power easement. Because of the easement, only a chain link fence and no trees can
be provided for screening from the adjacent residential properties. As sufficient
evidence of a hardship has not been given for the additional building height and
adequate measures have not been taken to mitigate the impacts of the taller building,
staff recommends denial of the variance.
Perimeter landscaping is provided on the north and east sides adjacent to new
development; buffers on the south and west property lines will remain as built. The
perimeter buffer along the east property line adjacent to the parking lot narrows down to
two feet in width to allow for a uniform 44-foot drive aisle in the parking lot that
complements the existing parking lot. In addition, only one additional parking lot tree is
being provided, where four additional trees are required. The trees can be provided;
however, the addition of landscape islands would cause the loss of several parking
spaces. As the site is already parking impaired and requires a variance, the applicant is
opting to omit the required landscaping. These deficiencies point to the fact that the site
SS
is already overbuilt, and proposing additional development only increases the

incompatibility to the adjacent properties. A 45-foot wide NV Energy easement is
located along the east property line north of Franklin Avenue. Due to the overhead
power lines, no trees or tall vegetation can be planted in this area. As an alternative
landscape design, the applicant has proposed five-gallon shrubs within the redeveloped
portion of the easement and placement of the seven trees that would be required in the
buffer on other portions of the site. This design is acceptable under Title
19.08.040(F)(3), as the trees cannot be provided in the normal buffer area in this
instance but still would be provided elsewhere on the site.
The site is parking impaired pursuant to Title 19.18.030(D)(1). The existing school
building has legally provided 30 spaces for 46 classrooms where 138 are currently
required under the Unified Development Code. Pursuant to Title 19.18.030(D), only the
conforming number of spaces to accommodate the new classroom building is required;
therefore, 66 additional spaces will be required. The applicant is proposing to provide
17 additional spaces for a total of 47 spaces overall, requiring a variance.
Supplemental offsite parking containing 78 spaces is provided on the parcel to the west
of the school, which is located within a separate 100-foot wide NV Energy easement.
The lack of space for onsite parking indicates that the site is proposing to be overbuilt,
and denial is therefore recommended for the parking variance.
The proposed classroom building exterior will consist of variations in texture, color and
materials, featuring a colored CMU base and corrugated metal paneling. The roofline
would be flat but the parapet would vary in height. The elevations will be visually
appealing and compatible with surrounding development; however, the building will not
be adequately screened from residential development.
The site consists of two separate contiguous parcels that must be consolidated into one
so that the proposed building does not cross a lot line. The mapping action shall be
completed and recorded prior to the issuance of any building permits. A condition of
approval addresses this issue.
The expansion conforms to the policies and objectives of the School Facilities Element
of the Las Vegas 2020 Master Plan. However, given the relatively small size of the site
and its proximity to residential development without mitigation of the effects of
development, the proposed classroom and parking lot additions to the existing primary
school are not compatible with the existing school facilities and development on
neighboring properties. Staff therefore recommends denial of the Site Development
Plan Review, subject to conditions.

The site is already relatively small for a school; the proposed placement of the
addition is directly adjacent to an existing single family residential parcel, but
adequate screening is not provided between the school property and the
residential property. In addition, the additional parking required to meet the needs
of the addition cannot be provided on the site.
The proposed development does not meet the required building height, parking,
perimeter landscape buffer width or parking lot landscaping standards of the C-V
zoning district for developments adjacent to single-family residential zoning
districts. Adequate measures have not been taken to mitigate negative effects to
adjacent properties. The School Facilities Element of the Las Vegas 2020 Master
SS
Plan includes policies and objectives highlighting cooperation with Clark County
School District in meeting the needs of the citys expanding population. This
includes providing equal educational opportunities in established neighborhoods,
which is satisfied by this proposal.

Circulation around the site is logical and will minimize conflicts. The primary
access from Wengert Avenue will not be changed; however, one of the existing
driveways from Pauline Way will be closed off by new landscaping. It is estimated
that approximately 179 additional vehicles overall during peak traffic periods
would be introduced into the area as a result of the proposed development. The
affected neighborhood streets of Pauline Way, Wengert Avenue, Franklin Avenue
and 17th Street are all believed to be under capacity at this time.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for Variance to allow a 15-foot front yard setback for a side-loading
garage addition, and a Special Use Permit to allow a rear yard casita with full kitchen
facilities at 2612 Bryant Avenue.
ISSUES
A Variance is required to allow a side-loaded garage addition to encroach into

the front yard setback area. Staff does not support this request.
A Special Use Permit is required for an Accessory Structure (Class I) in the R-1
(Single Family Residential) zoning district. Staff is recommending approval of this
request.
ANALYSIS
Side-Loaded Garage Addition:

The applicant has proposed a 654 square-foot, two-car side-loaded garage to be
constructed on the western front edge of the existing single family residence. In order to
accommodate a two-car garage and reconfigure the driveway into a circular drive, the
garage addition will encroach into the front yard setback by 5 feet. Title 19.08 requires a
minimum 20-foot front yard setback in the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning
district; this garage addition would result in a 15-foot front yard setback.
The applicant has submitted elevation plans to modernize the existing single family
residence constructed in 1960. The elevations demonstrate elevated/vaulted ceiling
heights with accent windows to allow for natural lighting in the main residence. The
height of the primary residence is proposed for 19 feet, four-inches at its tallest point,
well under the maximum height of 35 feet allowed in the R-1 (Single Family Residential)
zoning district. While the elevation improvements were submitted as part of this
application, they are not part of this review as they meet Title 19.08 standards for single
family residences. The applicant is able to apply for a building permit for the faade
updates as no land entitlements are necessary for faade improvements.
Staff finds the request to reduce the front yard setback from 20 feet to 15 feet in order to
accommodate a side-loading two-car garage to be a self-imposed hardship and is
recommending denial of this request.
NE
VAR-71724 and SUP-71723 [PRJ-71693]
Casita:
The applicant has proposed to construct an Accessory Structure (Class I) [casita] in the
northeast corner of the rear yard. The proposed casita would be new construction, and
is designed to match the proposed faade updates demonstrated in the elevation plans
for the primary residence. The proposed casita contains a full kitchen facility which
requires a Special Use Permit in the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning district. The
proposed casita meets the required setbacks set forth by Title 19.08, and consist of 542
square feet of floor area on the first floor, with a small second floor area above that adds
approximately 280 square feet to the casita. The total square-footage of the casita is
822 square feet. Title 19.08 allows 50 percent of the primary residence square-footage
for Accessory Structures. In this instance, the existing primary residence is 2,912
square feet, this would allow for an Accessory Structure up to 1,456 square feet. The
accessory structure provides a full kitchen facilities, a half-bath on the first level, and a
sleeping area with full bath on the second level. The total proposed height of the
Accessory Structure, Class I is 18 feet, six-inches, less than the proposed height of the
remodeled primary residence.
The Accessory Structure (Class I) use is defined as An accessory structure which is

located on the same residential parcel as a principal dwelling and which, as an ancillary
use, provides living quarters, including full kitchen facilities, for the occupants of the
principal dwelling or their tenants, domestic employees or temporary guests.
1. Requirement 1: The size of the lot or parcel must exceed 6500 square feet.
The proposed use meets this requirement as the subject site is 10,019 square
feet.
2. Requirement 2: Unless the principal dwelling is owner-occupied, a Class I accessory

structure may not be offered or occupied as a rental unit.
The proposed use meets this requirement as the applicant has not indicated the
primary residence or the Accessory Structure will be used as a rental.
The proposed Accessory Structure, Class I [casita] meets the minimum requirements
set forth by Title 19.08 and Title 19.12 for Accessory Structures in the R-1 (Single
Family Residential) zoning district; therefore, staff is recommending approval of this
request.

VAR-71724 and SUP-71723 [PRJ-71693]
order to:



applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing to construct a side-loaded
two car garage that encroaches into the front setback area. Reducing the size of the
proposed garage would allow conformance to the Title 19 requirements. In view of the
absence of any hardships imposed by the sites physical characteristics, it is concluded
that the applicants hardship is preferential in nature, and it is thereby outside the realm
of NRS Chapter 278 for granting of Variances.

The proposed Accessory Structure has been designed to match the faade
remodel of the primary residence and can be conducted in a manner that is
harmonious and compatible with the existing surrounding single family residential
neighborhood.
NE
VAR-71724 and SUP-71723 [PRJ-71693]
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for the Accessory Structure as the applicant
does not require a setback Variance to accommodate the Accessory Structure.

Bryant Avenue is a 60-foot wide local street designed to provide access to the
Approval of this request will not compromise the public health, safety, or welfare
as the primary residence and proposed casita are subject to the minimum
requirements set forth by the Las Vegas Municipal Code, the Unified
Development Code, in addition to the International Energy Conservation Code

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant has proposed to convert six existing shipping containers to building space
at 4221 West Charleston Boulevard.
ISSUES
x The subject site is a parking impaired development as defined by Title 19.18.030.

The additional building space will require a parking Variance to allow zero
additional parking spaces where seven are required.
x This application is the result of Code Enforcement Case Number (#169087)
created on July 26, 2016.
x Five of the six existing shipping containers are within the required setbacks of the
lot.
x Three of the six existing shipping containers are located within a NV Energy
power easement.
x One of the six existing shipping containers is located within the required Fire
Lane.
x A Site Development Plan Review is required to convert the subject shipping
containers to building area.
x A Variance is required to allow the buildings to have a zero-foot side and rear
yard setback where ten and 20 feet is required respectively; and to allow lot
coverage of 57 percent where 50 percent is the maximum allowed.
ANALYSIS
On July 26, 2016 the Department of Planning Code Enforcement Division received
information from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) about a
burglary that occurred at 4241 West Charleston Boulevard that may or may not have
involved vagrants reportedly living in the shipping containers located at 4221 West
Charleston Boulevard. LVMPD requested Code Enforcement to review the area for
possible code violations. As a result, Code Enforcement performed a site inspection on
July 27 and 28, 2016 and issued a Notice of Violation for 4221 West Charleston
Boulevard in regards to temporary signs, graffiti, refuse and weeds, and the shipping
containers.
NE
VAR-71768 and SDR-71769 [PRJ-71314]
The subject site is located within the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district which
does not allow outdoor storage, or shipping containers. In order for the shipping
containers to remain, they must be converted into building space through a Site
Development Plan Review and subsequent building permits.
During a routine field check performed by staff on October 5, 2017 staff observed the
six subject shipping containers located throughout the site at 4221 West Charleston
Boulevard. The first two were observed adjacent to the Vista Drive driveway located
within required parking stalls. The applicant has proposed to relocate these to the north
side of the driveway and stack the two shipping containers on top of one another in
order to maintain the required driveway width.
The third shipping container was observed adjacent to the east faade of the building
within the required fire access lane. This shipping container will have to be removed to
restore the fire access lane.
The remaining three shipping containers were observed within the NV Energy Power
Easement located along the southern edge of the property. Easements such as this are
in place to ensure public utility workers have access to the equipment for maintenance
and for emergencies. Staff has added a Condition of Approval for the applicant to
receive approval from NV Energy for the location of these three shipping containers
before a building permit is issued.
In order for the shipping containers to remain in their current configuration and be
converted into building space, the applicant is requesting a Variance to allow for the
subject shipping containers to have a zero-foot side yard setback where ten feet is
required, and to have a zero-foot rear yard setback where 20 feet is required. Staff does
not support this request as building setbacks are in place to ensure the use of a
property does not infringe of the adjacent property. The subject site and surrounding
properties are located within a Rural Preservation Overlay District which states as a
goal to provide adequate buffer areas, adequate screening and an orderly and efficient
transition of land uses. Zero-foot setbacks do not support this goal.
Since the shipping containers are not permissible as outdoor storage in the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district, the applicant has submitted an application for a Site
Development Plan Review to convert the shipping containers into buildings. Staff does
not support this request as the shipping containers are box-like and single, monolithic
forms void of jogs, offsets, and other architectural features as required by Title 19.08. If
approved, staff has added a condition of approval for the buildings to be painted in the
same color scheme as the main structure.
Constructed in 1978, the subject site is a parking-impaired development per Title

19.18.030, which states, A land use or building which is existing on the effective date of
NE
VAR-71768 and SDR-71769 [PRJ-71314]
this Title and which complied with the applicable parking standards at the time the use
or building was established, but which does not comply with the on-site parking
requirements of this Title, shall not be considered a nonconforming use or non-
conforming building; but rather, it shall be considered a parking-impaired development.
As a result of the shipping containers converting to building space, additional parking

stalls are required:
Building permits and certificates of occupancy may be issued for remodeling or
structural alterations of parking-impaired developments without requiring
compliance with the on-site parking requirements of this Title, provided that such
work does not increase the building area or result in a change of use that
requires an increase in the number of required parking spaces. For any
remodeling, alteration, or expansion of a parking-impaired development that
requires an increase in the number of required parking spaces, including the
expansion of existing buildings or the construction of new buildings, only the
increased number of parking spaces shall be required.
The converted shipping containers, eight feet by 40 feet or 320 square feet each, add
an additional 1,920 square feet. The subject site is currently licensed as a Building
Maintenance Service and Sales facility which requires one parking space for every 300
square feet (1:300), which in this instance equates to seven additional parking spaces
which the applicant is not providing. This requires a parking Variance in accordance
with the parking requirements of Title 19.12.
Due to the subject site requiring a parking Variance, staff has requested applications
(VAR-71768 and SDR-71769) be held in abeyance to allow time for the applicant to
submit an application for a parking Variance.
order to:


NE
VAR-71768 and SDR-71769 [PRJ-71314]


applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by installing portable structures without
the necessary building permits required by law. Obtaining the necessary building
permits prior to installation of would allow conformance to the Title 19 requirements. In

The proposed development is not compatible with development in the area as the
subject site is within the Rural Preservation Overlay District with property currently
zoned R-E (Residence Estates) directly southeast of the subject site. The
proposed stacked shipping containers within the required building setback area
do not support the goal of the Rural Preservation Overlay District which strives to
provide adequate buffer areas, adequate screening and an orderly and efficient
transition of land uses.
The proposed conversion of shipping containers to building space is not

consistent with Title 19 as the proposed conversion requires a lot coverage
Variance, a Parking Variance, and a Variance to allow the proposed building to
be located within the required building setback area set forth by Title19.08.

NE
VAR-71768 and SDR-71769 [PRJ-71314]
One of the six existing shipping containers is located within a required Fire
Emergency Access Lane. A Condition of Approval has been added to ensure its
removal within 30 days of final approval. Three of the six shipping containers were
placed within the NV Energy power easement located along the south perimeter
of the subject site. This easement is in place to ensure NV Energy workers have
adequate space around the power lines and their support structures for
maintenance and repair when necessary. A Condition of Approval has been
added to obtain approval from NV Energy for this encroachment. Two of the six
shipping containers are currently located within required parking spaces. The
applicant has proposed to relocate and stack these two shipping containers.
City;
Shipping containers do not make for appropriate building material, and will require
building permits to ensure the units are safe for use. No landscape materials have
been proposed for the subject site.

The elevations of the existing shipping containers will remain box-like; monolithic
forms void of offsets, jogs, and architectural features as required by Title 19.08.
The lack of architectural features and uniformity with the existing primary structure
is unsightly, undesirable, and does not create an orderly or aesthetically pleasing
environment.
The subject structures are required by condition of approval to obtain proper

building permits and inspections if approved, thus protecting the public health,
safety, and general welfare.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing to construct a 27,658 square-foot classroom building addition

to an existing 71,143 square-foot elementary school located at 701 North 20th Street.
ISSUES
x The subject site is a legal, nonconforming development located within the C-V
(Civic) zoning district.
x A Variance is requested to allow 28 additional parking spaces where 57 are
required. Staff is recommending denial of this request.
x A Variance is requested to allow a 37-foot building height where 35 feet is the
maximum allowed. Staff is recommending denial of this request.
x A Variance is requested to allow reduced landscape buffer widths along the
north, south, and east perimeters of the subject site. Staff is recommending
denial of the request.
x Title 19 requires a public hearing for Site Development Plans that do not comply
with all applicable requirements of Title 19.
ANALYSIS
Located at 701 North 20th Street, Halle Hewetson Elementary School is a single-story
71,143 square-foot elementary school that currently utilizes portable classrooms located
on the north end of the school campus.
The applicant has proposed to replace the existing portable classrooms with a two-story,
27,658 square-foot classroom building that will add 18 additional classrooms with one of
those classrooms able to flex into two, for a possible total of 19 classrooms. These new
classrooms will house Kindergarten, Special Education, and S.T.E.M.
The C-V (Civic) zoning district requires structures adjacent to the R-1 (Single Family
Residential) zoning district to comply with Title 19.06.060 for building height, which limits
the maximum height allowed to two-stories, or 35 feet. The applicant is requesting a
Variance to allow a proposed building height of 37 feet, which exceeds the height
limitations by two feet. Staff does not support this request as the existing elementary is
surrounded by existing single family residences to the north, south, west, and east.
NE
The proposed building addition reconfigures the north end of the campus to include a 28
space parking lot, new turf area, and a new playground with shade structure. In addition
the applicant has proposed to reconfigure the existing linear parking located along the
southern perimeter and remove a significant portion of the existing southern landscape
buffer to accommodate a dedicated bus lane for drop-off and pick-up of students.
Constructed in 1963, the subject site is a legal, nonconforming building as it was

constructed prior to the current minimum development requirements set forth by Title 19,
including landscape buffers. New development requires compliance with current code
standards which requires a 15-foot wide landscape buffer when adjacent to public right-of
way. The applicant has requested a Variance to allow a portion of the east landscape
buffer to be 10 feet, and to allow a zero-foot wide landscape buffer along the north and
south property lines where the new development is occurring. Staff is recommending
denial of this request as landscape buffers provide necessary buffering to the existing
surrounding residential neighborhoods.
Title 19.12 requires three parking spaces for every elementary classroom. The addition of
19 classrooms requires 57 additional parking spaces to the subject site. The applicant has
requested a Variance to allow 28 additional parking spaces on the site. The existing
elementary school is a parking-impaired development which means the campus complied
with the applicable parking standards at the time the use or building was established, but
which does not comply with the on-site parking requirements of Title 19. The main parking
lot is located on the southeast portion of the site and currently provides 53 parking spaces,
with 12 additional parking stalls along the southern property line. If approved, the site will
provide a total of 93 parking spaces. Staff finds the proposed parking to be insufficient and
is recommending denial of the Variance request.

NE


applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by not providing the minimum amount of
parking required for the new building addition. Alternative site design would allow
conformance to the Title 19 requirements. In view of the absence of any hardships
imposed by the sites physical characteristics, it is concluded that the applicants
hardship is preferential in nature, and it is thereby outside the realm of NRS Chapter
278 for granting of Variances.

hardship is preferential in nature, and it is thereby outside the realm of NRS Chapter
278 for granting of Variances.

The proposed development is a classroom building addition to an existing

elementary school which is compatible with the existing school and the
surrounding residential neighborhood.
The proposed development is not consistent with Title 19 as demonstrated by the

requested Variance applications.

Additional site access will be provided to the north of the subject with the addition
of the proposed 28 space parking lot. In addition, the applicant has proposed to
reconfigure the existing southern parking area to include a new bus drop off area.
These proposed changes will not negatively affect adjacent roadways or
In a report prepared by the Traffic Division of Public Works, the proposed school
addition will add approximately 427 trips per day on Harris Avenue, 20th Street,
and Wilson Avenue. Currently, Harris Avenue is at approximately 10 percent of
capacity and 20th Street is at approximately 9 percent of capacity. With the
addition of this project, Harris Avenue is expected to be at approximately 14
percent of capacity and 20th Street to be at approximately 13 percent of capacity.
Counts are not available for Wilson Avenue in this vicinity, but it is believed to be
under capacity. Based on Peak Hour use, the additional classrooms will add
into the area roughly 144 additional cars, or about five every two minutes.

City;
The proposed building materials include decorative CMU (Concrete Masonry Unit)
veneer, painted steel columns and beams, and painted metal canopies. The
proposed shade trees include Chinese Pistache, Rio Grande Fan-Tex Ash, and
Mondel Pines. These materials are appropriate for an educational campus located
in a desert climate.

The proposed building elevations are not unsightly or obnoxious in appearance,

and will create an aesthetically pleasing environment while remaining compatible
with the existing surrounding residential neighborhood.
The proposed addition is subject to building permit review prior to construction, as

well as regular site inspections during construction thus protecting the public
health, safety, and general welfare.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit for a proposed Motor Vehicle Sales (Used)
use within an existing shopping center located at 4905 Alta Drive.
ISSUES
x A Motor Vehicle Sales (Used) use is permissible in the C-2 (General

Commercial) zoning district with approval of a Special Use Permit.
x A Waiver is required to allow 1,545 square feet of space dedicated to the Motor
Vehicle Sales (Used) use where the minimum required is 25,000 square feet.
ANALYSIS
The applicant has proposed to operate a Motor Vehicle Sales (Used) use within an
existing shopping center. Per Title 19.12, the Motor Vehicle Sales (Used) use is defined
as a facility or area, other than an auto sales showroom, used primarily for the display
and sale or leasing of used automobiles, motorcycles and motor scooters, but excluding
mopeds. This use includes service bays and auto body shops which are incidental and
accessory to the sales use. According to the justification letter and site plan date
stamped 09/27/17, the proposed use meets the definition, as the applicant is proposing
to sell used automobiles.
1. The minimum site area designated for this use shall be 25,000 square feet.
The proposed use does not meet this requirement. The proposed dedicated space is
1,545 square feet within an existing shopping center. A Waiver accompanies this
application to allow the reduced area. Staff does not support the requested Waiver.
2. The installation and use of an outside public address or bell system is prohibited.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the site will undergo regular inspection
throughout the licensing process.
CS
SUP-71749 [PRJ-71680]
3. All exterior lighting shall be screened or otherwise designed so as not to shine

directly onto any adjacent parcel of land.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the applicant has not proposed any
additional lighting, and any new lighting is subject to permit review.
4. Accessory automobile rental is permitted.
The applicant is aware that accessory automobile rental is permitted.
5. No motor vehicle sales (used) may be located on Rancho Drive, between Vegas
Drive and Craig Road.
The proposed use will not be located on Rancho Drive, between Vegas Drive and Craig
Road.
Per the submitted site plan, the Motor Vehicle Sales (Used) use will be operated from a
1,545 square foot office space within an existing shopping center. A total of 15 parking
spaces, identified as display, are shown within close proximity to the subject office
space. The existing shopping center exceeds Title 19 parking requirements by providing
a total of 1,395 parking spaces where 532 are required for the entire commercial
development. A routine field check was conducted by Staff on 10/05/17 where a non-
permitted wall sign was found at the subject tenant space. A condition of approval has
been added to address this issue.
The proposal does not adhere to all minimum requirements as outlined by Title 19.12.
The applicant is requesting a Waiver to allow a site area of 1,545 square feet to be
dedicated to the use where the minimum required is 25,000 square feet. The minimum
site area requirement of 25,000 square feet reduces site congestion and ensures better
site circulation. The request for a Waiver reinforces the unsuitability of the proposed use
at this location. For these reasons, staff recommends denial; however, if approved
subject to conditions.

proposed.
The proposed land use cannot be conducted in a manner that is harmonious with
the existing surrounding land uses as the subject site fails to meet the minimum
site area requirement.

Access to the subject site is provided by Alta Drive, an 80-foot Major Collector
Street and Decatur Boulevard, a 120-foot Parkway Arterial which are both
adequate in size to serve the proposed use.
Approval of this proposed Special Use Permit will not compromise the public
health, safety and general welfare of the public, as the use will be subject to
regular inspections and licensing restrictions.
The proposed Motor Vehicle Sales (Used) use does not meet the minimum Title
19 site area requirement. A Waiver of the minimum area dedicated for the use
accompanies this application, which staff does not support.

There are no related relevant City Action on file.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing to operate a Short-Term Residential Rental use within the
existing single-family dwelling at 2220 West Oakey Boulevard. In addition, the applicant
has requested a Variance (VAR-71766) to allow a seven-foot tall front yard wall/fence
where a maximum of five feet with a two-foot solid base is allowed within the front yard
setback area.
ISSUES
x Pursuant to Title 19.12, a Short-Term Residential Rental use is permitted in the R-E
(Residence Estates) zoning district as a Conditional Use.
x The applicant will not comply with the owner occupied requirements and bedroom
limitations of the conditional use regulations and therefore, per Title 19.12.040, a
Special Use Permit is required.
x A Waiver has been requested to allow the use to be 383 feet from an existing Short-
Term Residential Rental use, where 660 feet is required. Staff does not support this
waiver request.
x The applicant is required to schedule an inspection through the Department of
Planning - Code Enforcement Division. The inspection must be approved prior to the
issuance of the business license.
x A Code Enforcement case (#174903) was processed for a non-licensed Short-Term
Rental at 2220 West Oakey Boulevard. The case has not been resolved.
x The applicant has requested a Variance (VAR-71766) to allow a seven-foot tall front
yard wall/fence where a maximum of five feet with a two-foot solid base is allowed
within the front yard setback area.
ANALYSIS
The subject property contains a single-family dwelling, is zoned R-E (Residence

Estates) and is subject to Title 19 requirements. The dwelling contains four bedrooms
per the Clark County Assessors records. The Short-Term Residential Rental definition
specifically prohibits the rental or occupancy of an accessory structure (Class I or II), a
tent, a trailer or a mobile unit. Staff has included a recommended condition that
includes that restriction.
JB
VAR-71766 and SUP-71767 [PRJ-70565]
A Short-Term Residential Rental use is permitted in the R-E (Residence Estates) zoning
district as a Conditional Use. The proposed use would not meet the Conditional Use
Regulations requiring it be owner occupied during each period the unit is rented, to be
660 feet from any other Short-Term Residential Rental use, and is a home with more
than three bedrooms; therefore, per Title 19.12.040, a Special Use Permit is required.
The Short-Term Residential Rental use is defined as The commercial use, or the
making available for commercial use, of a residential dwelling unit for dwelling, lodging
or sleeping purposes, wherein any individual guest rents or occupies the entire dwelling
unit or one or more individual rooms within the unit for a period of less than 31
consecutive calendar days. This use does not include a Community Residence,
Facility for Transitional Living for Released Offenders, or any other facility with
dwelling units that is specifically defined in Chapter 19.18. For purposes of this Title, this
use does not include the rental or occupancy of an accessory structure (Class I or II), a
tent, a trailer or a mobile unit. In the case of a single parcel containing more than one
dwelling unit, each dwelling unit constitutes a separate short-term residential rental
use. Per the applicants justification letter and floor plan date stamped on 10/03/17, the
subject site will provide four guest rooms for lodging of individual guests.
The Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for this use include: (The requirements
marked with an asterisk cannot be waived.)
*1. The operator must obtain a business license to operate the use.
If this Special Use Permit is approved, the applicant will be required to obtain a
business license prior to operating.
*2. The use must comply on an ongoing basis with all governmental licensing and
regulatory requirements, including the payment of applicable room taxes and
licensing fees.
If a business license is issued for this Short-Term Residential Rental, it will be

subject to license renewal and annual compliance review to ensure that all
regulatory requirements continue to be met.
*3. The use must comply with the Citys noise regulations as they apply to residential
uses, as well as any applicable provisions of the Municipal Code that may pertain
to odor nuisances.
The Code Enforcement Division will investigate noise and odor nuisance
allegations and take enforcement action when appropriate. Reports of violations
will be forwarded to the Business Licensing Division for action when appropriate.
JB
VAR-71766 and SUP-71767 [PRJ-70565]
*4. Vehicle parking associated with the use shall comply with applicable parking
regulations, and vehicles of guests and invitees shall not obstruct traffic or
access to other properties in the area.
The Code Enforcement Division will investigate traffic and access obstruction
*5. In addition to and independent of any enforcement authority or remedy described

in this Title, the failure to comply with a Minimum Special Use Permit
Requirement or other condition of approval associated with this use may be
enforced as in the case of a violation of Title 6 by means of a civil proceeding
pursuant to LVMC 6.02.400 to 6.02.460, inclusive.

*6. The use is allowed in the P-O, O, C-1, C-2 and C-PB Zoning Districts only in
connection with the residential component of a mixed-use development or in a
dwelling unit permitted as a legal nonconforming use.
This condition does not apply, as the subject site is not zoned P-O, O, C-1, C-2
or C-PB.
*7. The maximum occupancy of the residential dwelling unit shall not exceed the
limits provided for in LVMC 6.75.090.
The Code Enforcement Division will investigate maximum occupancy allegations

and take enforcement action when appropriate. Reports of violations will be
forwarded to the Business Licensing Division for action when appropriate.
8. The use may not be located closer than 660 feet to any other Short-Term
Residential Rental use (measured from property line to property line).
The applicant has requested a waiver of this requirement to allow the proposed
Short-Term Residential Rental use to be 383 feet from the nearest existing Short-
Term Residential Rental use, where 660 feet is required. Staff does not support
the waiver request.
JB
VAR-71766 and SUP-71767 [PRJ-70565]
Additional parking for a Short-Term Residential Rental is only required if the unit has
more than five bedrooms, at which point one additional space shall be required for
every two additional bedrooms or fractional portion thereof. The proposed Short-Term
Residential Rental has four bedrooms and therefore is not required to provide an
additional parking space.
The applicant has requested a waiver of the 660-foot distance separation from a similar,
existing use. The subject site is 383 feet from the nearest Short-Term Residential
Rental. Staff does not support this waiver request.
On February 21st, 2017 a code enforcement case (#174903) was processed for an
unlicensed Short-Term Rental use located on the subject site; the case has not been
resolved. The proposed Short-Term Residential Rental use will not be compatible with
the surrounding residential uses due to the existing Short-Term Residential Rental use
that is currently licensed approximately 383 feet from the subject site.
In addition, the applicant has requested a Variance (VAR-71766) to allow a seven-foot

tall front yard wall/fence where a maximum of five feet with a two-foot solid base is
allowed. Code requirements are intended to discourage the saturation of Short-Term
Residential Rental uses within residential areas. The minimum special use permit
requirements specify that the distance between similar uses shall be at least 660 feet;
therefore, staff recommends denial. If this application is approved, it is subject to
conditions.
order to:


JB
VAR-71766 and SUP-71767 [PRJ-70565]


applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing to install a seven-foot tall
front yard wall/fence where a maximum of five feet with a two-foot solid base is allowed.
An alternative design ad wall height would allow conformance to the Title 19
requirements. In view of the absence of any hardships imposed by the sites physical
characteristics, it is concluded that the applicants hardship is preferential in nature, and
it is thereby outside the realm of NRS Chapter 278 for granting of Variances.

The proposed Short-Term Residential Rental use cannot be conducted in a

manner that is harmonious and compatible with the existing surrounding land
uses. The subject property is located within 660 feet of a licensed Short-Term
Residential Rental use.
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for the use as a Short-Term Residential
Rental.

The proposed Short-Term Residential Rental use will be accessed by Oakey

Boulevard, a 80-foot wide Major Collector Street, which will provide adequate
access for the proposed use.
JB
VAR-71766 and SUP-71767 [PRJ-70565]
The approval of the Special Use Permit on this subject property will be subject to
conditions of approval, business license approval, and compliance inspections to
ensure it will not compromise the public health safety and welfare.
The proposed Short-Term Residential Rental use complies with all of the Special
Use Permit requirements listed in Title 19.12 with the exception of the distance
separation from a similar, existing use. The applicant has requested a waiver to
allow a 383-foot separation where 660 feet is required. Staff does not support this
waiver request.

(V-0040-76) to allow a carport within 2 feet 6 inches of the side

The proposed use meets this requirement, as the subject property is

approximately 810 feet from the nearest Short-Term Residential Rental use.
2001 Grand Island Court is located within a gated community with a private street at the
southwest corner of El Parque Avenue Avenue and South Tioga Way. If the gated
neighborhood has a Home Owners Association (HOA), the applicant is required to
provide the Department of Planning, Business Licensing Division with documentation
from the association acknowledging the proposed use and, if necessary, granting
access to occupants of the proposed rental unit. A copy of the letter or document must
be attached to the business license affidavit for Short Term Rentals at the time of
application.
The subject site is located within the Rural Preservation Overlay District which was
established to preserve the rural nature of these designated areas by attaching special
importance to their rural character and low density. Some characteristics of these
neighborhoods include single-family homes on large lots, non-commercial raising of
domestic animals, and a density limit of two units per acre. The existing character of
rural neighborhoods and communities is protected by establishing boundaries to limit
encroachment of higher density development into protected areas.

ANALYSIS
The subject property contains a single-family dwelling, is zoned R-1 (Single Family
Residential) and is subject to Title 19 requirements. The dwelling contains five
bedrooms per the Clark County Assessors records. The Short-Term Residential Rental
definition specifically prohibits the rental or occupancy of an accessory structure (Class I
or II), a tent, a trailer or a mobile unit. Staff has included a recommended condition that
includes that restriction.
A Short-Term Residential Rental use is permitted in the R-1 (Single Family Residential)
zoning district as a Conditional Use. The proposed use would not meet the Conditional
Use Regulations requiring it to be owner occupied during each period the unit is rented,
and to contain three or fewer bedrooms; therefore, per Title 19.12.040 a Special Use
Permit is required.

was processed for loud noise and a Short-Term Residential Rental use on 04/13/15.
The case was closed 05/30/15 as a result of the property owner applying for licensure.
The applicant began operations prior to the requirement of a Conditional Use
Verification or Special Use Permit for a Short-Term Residential Rental use. A Code
Enforcement inspection was completed 05/27/15 with no issues for the owner to correct.
Residential Rental has five bedrooms and provides three on-site parking spaces. Staff
notes that the approved business license (G63-02851) indicates the property is licensed
for six bedrooms; however, the floor plan and Assessors records indicate the property
contains five bedrooms total.
The subject Short-Term Residential Rental Use has been in operation without a
neighborhood complaint since 06/08/15. The site meets R-1 lot standards and distance
separation requirements from other short-term rental uses. Staff finds that the use can
continue to be conducted in a manner that is harmonious with the existing surrounding
land uses. Therefore, staff recommends approval, subject to conditions.
