PRESENAION AND DISCUSSION: 5.1. Presentation Of he Blight Analysis As Conducted hrough he Fernley Redevelopment Study, Presented By Dr. Fred Steinmann, Of he University Center For Economic Development, University Of Nevada, Reno. Colleen Unterbrink, Assistant to the City Manager gave a brief introduction before the presentation of the Blight Analysis, she denoted the timeline that led to the study. Dr. Fred Steinmann, Assistant Research Professor from the College of Business at the University of Nevada, Reno presented the preliminary findings of Blight in the Redevelopment Study for the City of Fernley. He discussed areas eligible for inclusion in a possible redevelopment district and covered the socio-demographic and economic analysis, such as population growth, housing characteristics, income characteristics, poverty levels, education level, age, and unemployment rate (see attached power point presentation). Dr. Steinmann stated that of 98.3% of parcels within the study area, which consisted of 3,886 parcels, were surveyed and evaluated. He reported that Residential Single Family was the predominant land use type, consisting of 73.4% of the total number of parcels in the study area; furthermore commercial industrial land use type areas accounted for only 0.4% of the total number of parcels in the study area. He noted that the most common conditions (found on 10% or more of the parcels survey) included open storage, exposed equipment, abandoned vehicles, dust/litter/debris, weeds, overgrown vegetation, unimproved earth, inadequate screening and underutilized or substantially underdeveloped lots. Dr. Steinman mentioned that age of initial improvement of the parcel is relatively important because it has an impact on property tax value and tax revenues. He stated that most parcels within the study area are approaching their 50 year depreciation cycle, noting that the average year of improvement for these parcels is 1993; which will stress the City s ability to provide municipal services.

Planning Director im hompson presented on the Special Use Permit request from a traffic impact and zoning standpoint. He stated that the City and State regulations allow care of up to 12 children in a home daycare. Mr. hompson mentioned that the impact stemming from the approval of this item would have no traffic impact and the zoning impact would be none and recommended that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the item to go before City Council. Commissioner Jenni McCullar inquired about the letter in the packed from a neighbor listing all the reasons that they don t think this daycare should not exist. Della Williams noted that the resident on Snowflake who was concerned about traffic is a quarter of mile away from 1055 Mesa Drive, at the end of Mesa Drive, stating that the customers use the driveway at 1055 Mesa Drive to turn around and do not even make it to the end of Mesa Drive, therefore traffic would not apply to him. Commissioner Angela Lewis asked about how large Ms. Williams house is because the County has their home recorded at 800-some squared fee with the Assessor s.

(APN ). Planning Director im homson explained the conditions and challenges this tentative map presents and the issues that need to be addressed, including the proposed map being partially encumbered by a FEMA flood plain and no easement on the property. Citing issues with infrastructure, including a deficiency of water pressure. He discussed NRS which gives the City the ability to impose requirements on parcel maps as are reasonably necessary. Both NDO and the City s Master Plan contemplate there being a Frontage road system along the highways. Mr. hompson covered access challenges to the parcels in this map and stated that there is some access from an easement for the benefit of those parcels (and not a public), on the other side there appears to be access through a makeshift road, which is actually a private driveway, while some access cannot even be considered. He also said that there is a taxi way that runs through the property which has no easement. he applicant is required to comply with FAA regulations and address the FEMA flood plain issue as part of the conditions of the map. hese conditions require the applicant to come forward with a plan for the future to avoid the issues caused by the previous subdividing of these parcels. Glen Wadsmoth, representing Northern Nevada Comstock Investments, owner of building at 2500 Corse Hair Drive, went on record to make sure everyone knows there is no easement across that property for that road and use of it for as a public thoroughfare can be denied at any time and the owner does want to protect his rights to deny that access later on depending on what he ends up doing with that parcel.

He stated there being no project is 100% by intent on his client s part, because they are in the mapping stage and that the conditions will be very costly. He asked the Commission if there are 5 conditions that are tied to recordation of the map, and sees no risk to the public, the City or anybody if these 5 conditions were tied to a building or a grading permit. He asked that engineering design (condition number 5); drainage and grading (condition number 7); flood plain analysis (condition number 8); improvement plans condition number 11); and fencing plan (condition number 12) can all be tied to the first building permit. Public Comment here was none.
