The motion was seconded by Commissioner Etter and unanimously approved.
Agenda Item No. 4 -- Consideration of a landscape - parking plan for the La Quinta
Motel to be located at the intersection of Texas Avenue and Live Oak Street.
City Planner Mayo distributed a revised plan from La Quinta which attempted to
meet some of the requirements of the P.R.C. He noted, however that two main. areas
of noncompliance still remained. These were, a) the eight foot planted setback
along Live Oak Street had been Yeduced to four feet, all in 'City Right of Way, and
b) all of the raised islands at the ends of parking rows were undersized by about
one half the required plantable area..
Mr. Henry Ortega, project architect, stated that due to the: building system used by
La Quinta, no other arrangement of buildings on the site was possible and that the
narrow width of the site made it impossible to provide an eight foot strip along
Live Oak and still meet the parking space requirement. He also noted'that- the
Chauncy's Restaraunt had agreed to provide an extra dumpster location'.
Chairman Stover noted that in past cases where a deviation from the Landscape-
Parking Ordinance had been requested, the lost landscaping had. been made up
elsewhere on the site, but that this was not the case with this .project. He
noted that the proposed-plan would be a substantial deviation from the ordinance.
Commissioner Mathewson stated that he felt the site was overfilled and that,
allthough Live Oak was a minor street, the Commission should consider the precedent.
that might be set by approving the proposed plan.
Commissioner Watson asked what this project would do to traffic on'Live Oak.
Chairman Stover suggested that Live Oak might become a small street in the' center
of a commercial area with 'La Quinta on one side and 707 on the other.
Commissioner Mathewson noted that the green area provided by the proposed plan was
far below the requirements of the ordinance .and asked Mr. Ortega if there were
some way he could reduce the number of units on the site.
Mr. Ortega stated that this would not. be possible.
Chairman Stover asked. if La Quinta had tried to aquire any of the adjacent: property.
Mr. Ortega stated that they were unable to aquire any additional property.
Chairman Stover pointed out that the La Quinta would be using a system which would
recycle their water three times before being discharged into the City sewer system.
Mr. Ortega explained that the water would be used first for drinking and bathing,
then for laundry and watering and finally for flushing toilets.
Mr. Ortega asked that the Commission consider the La Quinta project on its own
merits rather than consider the precedent it might set for futur projects.
Chairman Stover suggested dropping some of the extra .parking spaces and increasing
the size of the planted islands.
Commissioner Watson suggested the need for. parking spaces was grater than the need
for additional landscaping.
