Item 18.A · Development
Sunset Flats alternative fencing
Approved with conditions · 5-0
The council approved an alternative vinyl fence for Sunset Flats that is substantially consistent aesthetically with, and as strong or stronger than, the Silverlake South fencing, as determined by staff. Applicant Susan Palmer requested honey maple vinyl. Council Member Colby Curtis preferred the Silverlake chai gray, which blends with The Ranches fences; Council Member Jared Gray would support gray for consistency; Council Member Carolyn Love favored gray for citywide continuity. Council Member Donna Burnham then proposed directing staff to bring fencing code amendments quickly, rather than a broad hold on applications.
Item 15.A · Development
Dollar Tree site plan
Approved with conditions · 5-0
The council approved the site plan for a 10,000-square-foot Dollar Tree in the Carson Commercial development, with 34 required stalls plus two accessible stalls. Conditions: drainage and water storage on the applicant's property, lighting compliance with an updated lumen count and a monument sign agreement for multiple businesses. Council Member Jared Gray's original motion required underground storage in the right-of-way; applicant representative Ryan Forsyth objected on cost and weight, and the City Attorney recommended tabling that part. Council Member Donna Burnham's replacement motion passed. Love raised concerns about the Porter's Crossing exit; Curtis said the traffic pattern was a compromise to avoid routing traffic through the neighborhood. The Porter's Crossing exit is right-turn only.
- Size: 10,000 sq ft; 34 stalls + 2 accessible
- Master site plan approved Aug. 6, 2019
- Applicant representative: Ryan Forsyth

Moving the vent adds about 50 feet of distance from residences. Curtis preferred the northwest corner.
