** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a Variance to allow a 75-foot lot width where 80-feet is the minimum
required for Lot 28 of a 95-lot residential subdivision located at the southeast corner of
Elkhorn Road and Tenaya Way.
ISSUES
x This Variance was originally part of a larger request of 30 individual lot width
Variances for a 95-lot single-family residential subdivision.
x The intent was for the Lot 28 Variance to be heard at the August 9, 2016
Planning Commission with its companion items; however, the Variance request
was inadvertently omitted from the agenda.
x On August 9, 2016, the Planning Commission approved all of the requested lot
width Variances associated with the residential development. Staff considers this
to be a clean-up item and recommends approval of the request.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is zoned R-D (Single Family Residential Restricted) which requires a
minimum lot width of 80 feet. The request is for a Variance to allow a 75-foot lot width
for Lot 28 of a previously approved 95-lot residential subdivision (TMP-65275). On
August 9, 2016, the Planning Commission approved 29 companion lot width Variances
associated with the residential development; however, the Variance request for subject
lot (Lot 28) was inadvertently omitted from the agenda. The original intent was for the
Lot 28 Variance to be heard at the August 9, 2016 Planning Commission with its
companion items. Because all of the related lot width Variances were approved by the
Planning Commission, Staff considers this to be a clean-up item and recommends
approval of the request.
FINDINGS (VAR-65290)
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:
FS
VAR-65290
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.
On August 9, 2016, the Planning Commission approved 29 related lot width Variances
associated with a 95-lot residential development; however, the Variance request for the
subject lot (Lot 28) was inadvertently omitted from the agenda. The original intent was
for the Lot 28 Variance to be heard at the August 9, 2016 Planning Commission with its
companion items. Because the related lot width Variances were approved by the
Planning Commission, Staff considers this to be a clean-up item and recommends

The City Council approved a General Plan Amendment (GPA-63487)
from DR (Desert Rural Density Residential) to R (Rural Density
06/15/16 Residential) and a Rezoning (ZON-63488) from U (Undeveloped) to R-
D (Single Family Residential Restricted District). Staff and the
Planning Commission had recommended approval.
The Planning Commission approved 29 lot-width Variances (VAR-

The City Council approved a Variance (VAR-65326) to allow
deviations from Complete Street Standards, Waivers (WVR-65331 and
65593) to allow a connectivity ratio of less than 1.3 and to allow
10/19/16 overhead powerlines where they are required to be underground, and

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit to allow a Liquor Establishment (Tavern) with
a Gaming Establishment, Restricted License at the southeast corner of Farm Road and
Durango Drive within the General Commercial District of Town Center.
ISSUES
x The Town Center Development Standards require a Special Use Permit for a Liquor
Establishment (Tavern) use in the General Commercial District of Town Center.
x The Town Center Development Standards require a Special Use Permit for a
Gaming Establishment, Restricted License in the General Commercial District of
Town Center.
x A Waiver is required to allow the proposed Gaming Establishment, Restricted
License to have a zero-foot distance separation from existing single-family detached
dwellings. Staff supports the Waiver request.
ANALYSIS
The applicant has proposed a Liquor Establishment (Tavern) with a Gaming

Establishment, Restricted License for Pad E of a 68,171 square-foot Shopping Center
currently under construction at the southeast corner of Farm Road and Durango Drive.
The subject pad is 4,400 square feet, located along the Farm Road frontage of the
shopping center. Due to the shopping center sharing a property line along the southern
perimeter with an existing residential neighborhood, a Waiver is required to allow a
zero-foot distance separation where 330 feet is the minimum distance required when
measured parcel line-to-parcel line. The subject site is designed to accommodate such
land uses as the proposed Liquor Establishment (Tavern) with a Gaming Establishment,
Restricted License, and there is no direct access to the subject site from the residential
neighborhood. For these reasons, staff is supporting the Waiver request.
The proposed floor plan demonstrates an open floor plan with areas designated for both
gaming and dining in addition to a linear bar with gaming machines. There are
designated mens and womens restrooms easily accessed from the main floor area
with a small utility room separating the doorways of the mens and womens restrooms.
The back of house area includes a kitchen, a managers and clerks office, and a
surveillance room for security.
NE
SUP-67880 and SUP-67881 [PRJ-65467]
The proposed land uses are subject to the minimum requirements of the Town Center
Development Standards Manual and Title 19 where the Town Center Development
Standards Manual is silent.
A Liquor Establishment (Tavern) is defined by Title 19 as a facility which sells alcoholic

beverages for consumption on the premises where the same are sold and authorizes
the sale, to consumers only and not for resale, of alcoholic beverages in original sealed
or corked containers, for consumption off the premises where the same are sold.
Pursuant to its general authority to regulate the sale of alcoholic beverages, the City
Council declares that the public health, safety and general welfare of the Town Center
are best promoted and protected by requiring that:
a. No tavern shall be located within 400 feet of any church, synagogue, school,
child care facility licensed for more than twelve children or City park.
There is not a church, synagogue, school, child care facility licensed for more
than twelve children or City park within 400 feet of the subject site.
b. Uses licensed as taverns or other comparable establishments, shall have no

specific spacing requirements between similar uses. However, the Las Vegas
City Council may consider the concentration and spacing of such uses as part of
its deliberation and approval of any requests for such establishments.
When measured in a straight line, parcel line to parcel line, the nearest Liquor
Establishment (Tavern) is located at 8001 North Durango Drive, approximately
2,300 feet away from the subject site.
c. The distances referred to in paragraphs a. and b. shall be measured in a straight

line from the property line of the church, synagogue, school, child care facility or
from the nearest property line of a city park to the property line of the proposed
liquor premises, and in a straight line from the property line of the proposed
tavern to the property line of any existing tavern or comparable establishment,
disregarding all intervening obstacles.
All measurements have been taken in a straight line from the property line of the
proposed tavern to the property line of any protected uses and existing tavern,
disregarding all intervening obstacles.
NE
SUP-67880 and SUP-67881 [PRJ-65467]
d. All businesses which sell alcoholic beverages shall conform to the provisions of
LVMC 6.50.
If approved, the Business Licensing Division of Planning will monitor the

proposed use once a business license is issued, ensuring compliance with the
provisions of LVMC 6.50.
e. No tavern shall be located within any Service Commercial District unless it is part
of a development with an aggregate acreage exceeding 50 acres with a majority
of the acreage located within a zone which allows taverns.
The subject site is within the General Commercial District of Town Center
satisfying this requirement.
The Gaming Establishment, Restricted use is defined by Title 19 as an establishment

which is used or intended to be used for gaming activities for which a restricted gaming
license is required pursuant to Title 6. For informational purposes, this description refers
to an establishment whose gaming operations are limited to not more than 15 slot
machines, incidental to the primary business at the establishment, and no other game
or gaming device.
In accordance with the Town Center Development Standards:
a. A Special Use Permit is required for any new gaming establishment.
The applicant has requested a Special Use Permit with a Waiver of the distance
separation requirement in order to satisfy this requirement.
b. May not locate within 330 feet of any single-family detached dwelling.
Adjacent to the subject site along the south property line is an existing residential
neighborhood creating a zero-foot distance separation between the proposed
Gaming Establishment, Restricted and the single-family detached dwellings. The
applicant has requested a Waiver of this requirement, which staff supports.
Staff finds the subject site to be physically suitable for the proposed uses and capable
of operating in a harmonious and compatible manner with the existing surrounding
uses; therefore, staff is recommending approval of both requests.
NE
SUP-67880 and SUP-67881 [PRJ-65467]
FINDINGS (SUP-67880 and SUP-67881)
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 land uses will be located in a 68,171 square-foot Shopping Center
that is currently under construction. The proposed Shopping Center was designed
to accommodate such land uses as a Liquor Establishment (Tavern) with a
Gaming Establishment, Restricted License and can be conducted in a manner
that is harmonious and compatible with the existing shopping centers to the north
and east, as well as the adjacent residential neighborhood to the south.
2. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of land use
proposed.
The subject land uses have been proposed for a 68,171 square-foot Shopping
Center within the Master Plan area of Town Center. The proposed Shopping
Center was designed to accommodate such land uses as a Liquor Establishment
(Tavern) with a Gaming Establishment, Restricted License.
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.
Access to the site is provided by Farm Road, a Town Center Arterial as defined by
the Town Center Development Standards Manual, and Durango Drive, a Primary
Arterial as defined by the Town Center Development Standards Manual. Both are
adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed uses. In addition, Site
Development Plan Review (SDR-68262) allows for the relocation of the driveway
adjacent to Farm Road for better alignment with the driveway on the east side of
Farm Road. This allows for traffic between the two shopping centers to maneuver
efficiently between the two centers.
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.
NE
SUP-67880 and SUP-67881 [PRJ-65467]
Staff Report Page Five
The subject site is located within the GC-TC (General Commercial Town
Center) district, which allows for such uses as retail, service, office and other
general business uses of a more intense commercial character. The proposed
land uses are also subject to business license requirements and regular
inspections to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. Approval of this
request will not be inconsistent with the overall objectives of the General Plan.
5. The use meets all of the applicable conditions per Title 19.12.
The proposed uses meet all of the applicable conditions set forth by the Town
Center Development Standards Manual except for the distance separation
requirement for the Gaming Establishment, Restricted License which requires a
330-foot distance separation is required. The applicant has requested a Waiver to
allow for a zero-foot distance separation when measured parcel line to parcel line.
With the subject site being a shopping center specifically designed to
accommodate such uses as the proposed Liquor Establishment (Tavern) with a
Gaming Establishment, Restricted License with no direct access to the adjacent
residential neighborhood, staff supports this Waiver request.

x Too much alcohol in the area. Wanted to know what the

the difference between a Liquor Establishment, Tavern land
use, the Beer/Wine/Cooler On-Sale Establishment, and the
Restaurant with Alcohol land uses and the different separation
requirements.
x Neighbors are concerned over the traffic and how it backs-up
northbound on Farm. Staff explained this should be temporary
that it is due to construction and a new traffic light will be
installed at the entrance to the shopping center (subject site)

applicants representative explained that there will be minimal
traffic produced and the shopping center has plenty of parking
for all land uses within the shopping center as it met and
exceeded the minimum parking requirements.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing to open a karaoke bar in the existing building at 1007 and
1009 South Main Street. The facility will have several smaller singing booths for private
parties, one larger karaoke area that can be public or reserved for private parties, a bar
and kitchen, and an outdoor seating area behind the building. They are requesting
Special Use Permits for both a Tavern-Limited Establishment use and a Night Club use
that will include both the indoor and outdoor patio areas. They will be reusing the
existing building on site, which had previously been divided into two suites but will be
combined for use by this business alone.
ISSUES
x A Tavern-Limited Establishment use is permitted in the C-M (Commercial Industrial)

zoning district with the approval of a Special Use Permit.
x A Night Club use is permitted in the C-M (Commercial Industrial) zoning district with
the approval of a Special Use Permit.
x The reuse of an existing structure often requires upgrades for life safety and
accessibility. For this building the LVVWD has indicated that a backflow preventer
may need to be installed at the water meter, which is at the front of the existing
building.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is proposing to reuse the existing building addressed as 1007 and 1009
South Main Street for a Karaoke Bar. The proposal would combine the two suites and
occupy both the 4,000 square foot building interior and a 2,000 square foot portion of
the lot behind the main building which has been improved with a patio cover and a
decorative fence. All work associated with these uses will be done within the building
footprint, and any faade improvements will be reviewed with an administrative site
development plan review.
The applicant is seeking two Special Use Permits to allow them to operate, the first is
for a Tavern Limited Establishment and the other is for a Night Club use. Both of the
proposed uses are listed as permitted by Special Use Permit in Title 19.12 within the C-
M (Commercial/Industrial) zoning district.
PB
SUP-68757 and SUP-68758 [PRJ-68697]
The Tavern-Limited Establishment use is defined as An establishment that is licensed

with a tavern-limited license in accordance with LVMC Chapter 6.50. The proposed
use will meet the definition with the issuance of a tavern-limited business license, which
is being sought per the applicants justification letter 02/16/17.
Title 19 does not include Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for this use.
The proposed Tavern-Limited Establishment will be located in the 18b Arts District of
the Downtown Centennial Plan. This area of the city has many such establishments
and serves as both an entertainment and arts center for the city, therefore this use is
compatible with surrounding uses and appropriate for the neighborhood. The site itself
provides both internal and external space for the business, with adequate controls to
guarantee compliance with LVMC Chapter 6.50.
The Night Club use is defined as:
A. An establishment, other than a teen dance center, where its primary operations are
that of preparing and serving alcoholic beverages for immediate on-premises
consumption and the provision of live entertainment, generally operated primarily in the
late evening/early morning hours. An establishment shall be considered a nightclub if it
exhibits the following characteristics;
1. Live entertainment is provided in an area that exceeds fifty square feet, and
the following spaces shall be included in the calculation of such area: stage
space, disc jockey space, dance floor(s), and any space primarily dedicated to
the viewing of the live entertainment provided by the licensee; and
2. Its primary operating hours are generally between the hours of nine p.m. and
five a.m. the following day, or afterhours between four a.m. and 10 a.m on the
same day.
B. For purposes of this description, live entertainment includes live music (with or
without dancing), recorded or digital music played for patrons by a live disc jockey or
electronic device, or karaoke entertainment or other stage shows, such as a magician,
comedian other similar type of performance artist.
The proposed use meets the definition as described in the applicants justification letter
dated 02/16/17, the business will function as a tavern-limited establishment upon
approval of a business license, and will provide live entertainment in the form of group
Karaoke in both private rooms and in a public area that is 600 square feet in size.
The Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for this use include:
PB
SUP-68757 and SUP-68758 [PRJ-68697]
1. Because the primary operations of a nightclub are that of preparing and serving
alcoholic beverages for immediate on-premises consumption and the provision of
live entertainment, the City Council declares that the public health, safety and
general welfare of the City are best promoted and protected by generally
requiring a minimum separation between a nightclub and other uses that should
be protected from the impacts associated with a nightclub. Therefore, except as
otherwise provided below, no nightclub may be located within 1500 feet of a
church, synagogue, school, child care facility licensed for more than 12 children
or City park.
The proposed Night Club use is not within 1500 feet of any church, synagogue,
school, child care facility licensed for more than 12 children, or City park.
2. A person that desires to operate a nightclub shall obtain both a nightclub land
use entitlement as well as any necessary land use entitlement for the service of
alcohol for on-premises consumption. A person lawfully operating a nightclub as
defined by this section and LVMC 6.39, prior to December 1, 2014, is not
required to obtain a special use permit for the continued operation of such
nightclub use. Real property entitled for a nightclub pursuant to this Code shall
have no specific spacing requirements between other nightclubs. However, as
the nightclub entitlement is a separate and distinct from any land use entitlement
permitting the service of alcohol for on-premises consumption, this provision shall
not act to waive or otherwise diminish the specific spacing requirements between
uses entitled for the service of alcohol for on-premises consumption.
The proposed Night Club use will be operated in conjunction with the Tavern-
Limited Establishment use under Special Use Permit (SUP-68757).
3. The distance separation referred to in Requirement 1, above, and Requirement

8, below, shall be measured with reference to the shortest distance between two
property lines, one being the property line of the proposed nightclub 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
nightclub. The distance shall be measured in a straight line without regard to
intervening obstacles.
PB
SUP-68757 and SUP-68758 [PRJ-68697]
4. For the purpose of Requirement 2, and for that purpose only:

a. The property line of a protected use refers to the property line of a fee
interest parcel that has been created by an approved and recorded parcel
map or subdivision map, and does not include the property line of a
leasehold parcel; and
b. The property line of a nightclub refers to:
i. The property line of a parcel that has been created by an approved
and recorded parcel map or commercial subdivision map; or
ii. The property line of a parcel that is located within an approved and
recorded commercial subdivision and that has been created by a
record of survey or legal description, if:
A. Using the property line of that parcel for the purpose of
measuring the distance separation referred to in Requirement 1
would qualify the parcel under the distance separation
requirement;
B. The proposed nightclub will have direct access (both ingress
and egress) from a street having a minimum right-of-way width
of 100 feet. The required access may be shared with a larger
development but must be located within the property lines of
the parcel on which the proposed nightclub will be located;
C. All parking spaces required by this Section 19.12.070 for the
nightclub will be located on the same parcel as the use; and
D. The owners of all parcels within the commercial subdivision,
including the owner of the nightclub parcel, sign an agreement,
satisfactory to the City Attorney, that provides for perpetual,
reciprocal cross-access, ingress
5. The distance separation requirement set forth in Requirement 1 does not apply to
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.
The proposed Night Club use is not in a non-restricted gaming establishment or a

200 plus room hotel, nor is it within 1500 feet of any church, synagogue, school,
child care facility licensed for more than 12 children, or City park.
PB
SUP-68757 and SUP-68758 [PRJ-68697]
6. The distance separation requirement set forth in Requirement 1 may be waived

in accordance with the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C) under the following
circumstances:
a. in connection with a proposed nightclub that will be located on a parcel
within the C-V District, the Parkway Center District or the Office Core
District within the Downtown Centennial Plan Overlay District, the Gaming
Enterprise Overlay District, the Fremont East Entertainment District, the
18b Arts District or the Downtown Casino Overlay District; or
b. In connection with a proposed nightclub that will be located within an
establishment which has a non-restricted gaming license and is not
exempted pursuant to paragraph 5.
school, child care facility licensed for more than 12 children, or City park. So no
waiver is necessary.
7. The use shall conform to, and is subject to, the provisions of LVMC Chapter 6.50.
The proposed Night Club use includes a staff recommended condition to obtain a
license for the use and to operate in conformance with LVMC Chapter 6.50.
8. No nightclub may be located within 500 feet of any single family dwelling unless:
a. The parcel on which the nightclub will be located is adjacent to Las Vegas
Boulevard between Charleston Boulevard and Fremont Street;
b. The parcel has a minimum net site area of 0.25 acres; and

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit for an existing Open Air Vending (BBQ
Cart) use within an existing commercial development at 5740 West Charleston
Boulevard to amend their hours of operation to 24-hours.
ISSUES
x A Waiver of Title 19.12 Condition #7(f) is required to allow an Open Air Vending
(BBQ cart) adjacent to residentially zoned property with a proposed 24-hour
operation, where 10:00am to 8:00pm is allowed. Staff recommends approval of this
request.
ANALYSIS
On December 5th, 2016 the Department of Planning approved Conditional Use

Verification (CUV-68033), which approved the existing Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart)
use located at 5740 West Charleston Boulevard. On December 19th, 2016 a business
license (G64-08862), which is still active was issued for an Open Air Vending (Onos
Island BBQ) use at 5740 West Charleston Boulevard. If this application is denied, the
existing Open Air Vending (BBQ cart) use would be allowed to continue on the subject
site with the existing 10:00am to 8:00pm hours of operation.
A Special Use Permit is required for the existing Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart) because
the applicant has requested a Waiver to allow an Open Air Vending (BBQ cart) adjacent
to residentially zoned property with proposed 24-hours of operation, where 10:00am to
8:00pm is allowed. The subject site is located within the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district.
An Open Air Vending use is described in Tile 19.12 as: An outdoor area or lot that is
used exclusively, or on a regular or periodic basis, for the sale or taking of orders for
any merchandise, including food items, where:
1. Such merchandise is displayed or sold within or upon the area or lot; and
2. No permanent physical structures or facilities are used as integral parts of the
sales or order taking operations.
JB
SUP-68729 [PRJ-68698]
Conditional Use Regulations:
1. No signage, including temporary signage, is allowed, except that, in the case of Open
Air Vending or Mobile Food Vending, the vehicle or portable unit may include signage
which is affixed thereto but only to the extent such signage is not prohibited by LVMC
19.08.120(E)(3).
No additional temporary signage has been proposed with this project.
2. The site must be kept free of any litter or debris at all times.
The applicant will be required to keep the site free of any litter or debris at all times. In
addition, there has been no Licensing Enforcement or Code Enforcement cases
processed for the existing use.
3. No structures shall be allowed within the public right-of-way.
There are no structures proposed within the public right-of way with this project.
4. The installation of permanent or temporary tables, chairs, tents, or coverings for

dining areas (including tarps and umbrellas) is prohibited, except when the use of such
facilities has been approved by means of a Site Development Plan Review or is within
the plaza area of a commercial lot.
No permanent or temporary tables, chairs, tents, or coverings for dining areas (including
tarps and umbrellas) have been proposed with this project.
5. Vehicles or portable units used in the operation may not occupy:

a. Required parking spaces or required drive aisles; or
b. Required loading zones, unless otherwise permitted under Conditional Use
Regulation 8.
The existing Open Air Vending operation is located on the southern perimeter of the
subject site and is not located within any required parking spaces or required drive
aisles. Conditional Use Verification (CUV-68033) designated two none required parking
spaces for the existing Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart) use.
6. The vending/sales activity must be located at least 150 feet from residential
development except where the location is part of a mixed-use development.
Based upon aerial measurements associated with Conditional Use Verification (CUV-
68033) the existing Open Air Vending operation is located approximately 150 feet away
from the multi-family residential development located to the west and 255 feet from the
undeveloped residential parcel to the north.
JB
SUP-68729 [PRJ-68698]
7. For Open Air Vending, in addition to Conditional Use Regulations 1 through 6:

a. No such vending is permitted in the O (Office) Zoning District;
The subject site is located within the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district.
b. No such vending is permitted on undeveloped lots or developed lots with

unoccupied structures or unpaved surfaces;
The existing Open Air Vending operation is located on an existing commercial

development which provides a paved surface.
c. No such vending is permitted within landscaped areas;
The existing Open Air Vending operation is not located within landscape area.
d. No more than one vendor is permitted on any one lot, and the vending area
shall be limited to a maximum of 500 square feet; provided, however, that those
limitations do not apply:
i. In connection with a Special Event Permit that allows a greater level of
vending activity by means of Open Air Vending;
ii. On a parcel whose development approval or approvals contemplate a
greater level of vending activity by means of Open Air Vending; or
iii. Within the plaza area of a commercial lot;
The Open Air Vending operation in question is the only vendor with an active
business license to operate on the subject site; in addition the vending area is
approximately 279 square feet in size and does not exceed 500 square feet.
e. At a location other than the plaza area of a commercial lot, vending operations
shall comply with required building setbacks for that location;
The submitted plans indicate the existing Open Air Vending (BBQ cart) is located
15 feet from the front-yard setback, which exceeds the 10 feet required by Title
19.08.
f. On any lot that is adjacent to a residentially zoned lot, the hours of operation
shall be limited to the period between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m.; and
The applicant has requested a Waiver of this condition to allow the existing Open
Air Vending (BBQ cart) to operate 24-hours a day, where 10:00am to 8:00pm is
allowed.
JB
SUP-68729 [PRJ-68698]
g. No supply or drainage pipes or power supply cords that pertain to the vending
operation may be placed on or across surface parking or unimproved areas, or
be attached to adjoining or nearby buildings, unless the vending operation is
located immediately adjacent to the building so that the attached pipes or power
cords have minimal exposure and do not present a potential hazard for
passersby.
During the required field check conducted by staff, staff noticed a well maintained
Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart) use at the subject site.
A Special Use Permit is required because this request fails to comply with the allowable
hours of operation outlined within the conditional use requirement 7(f) listed within Title
19.12 for the Open Air Vending land use. Staff notes, the residentially zoned parcel to
the north of the subject site is currently undeveloped and the parcel the west serves as
an entryway to an existing multi-family development. Furthermore, the existing Open Air
Vending (BBQ cart) is centrally located within the commercial development and is
screened from the adjacent residential developments by multiple intervening buildings.
In order to address concerns which may arise due to noise generated from the Open Air
Vending use, Staff is recommending a condition which requires the use to comply with
all Title 9.16 noise restrictions. Staff has determined the required Waiver to amend the
allowable hours of operation is suitable for the subject site and harmonious with the
surrounding residential land uses located to the west and north of the subject site,
therefore; staff recommends approval of the Special Use Permit with conditions.

The existing Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart) use is compatible with the MXU
(Mixed Use) General Plan land use designation and is located within an existing
commercial development. The existing use requires a Waiver to amend its
hours of operation to a 24-hour operation, where 10:00am to 8:00pm is allowed
by Title 19.12. Staff has determined that the proposed amended hours of
operation can be conducted in a manner that is harmonious and compatible
with the surrounding land uses.
JB
SUP-68729 [PRJ-68698]
proposed.
The Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart) is located within an established commercial
development and is currently in operation on the subject site and currently
occupies two on-site parking spaces. There is no evidence of a physical constraint
on the subject site.

Primary site access is from Charleston Boulevard, a 100-foot wide Primary Arterial
and Upland Boulevard an 80-foot Local Street. The rights-of-way provide
adequate capacity to serve the proposed use.
The existing Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart) use will be subject to regular
inspections by regulatory agencies for business licensing and will therefore not
compromise the publics health, safety or general welfare, or the overall objectives
of the General Plan.
Meets all conditions except 7(f), the applicant has proposed a Waiver of Title
19.12 condition 7(f) that would allow the existing Open Air Vending (BBQ Cart)
use to amend its hours to 24-hours, where 10:00am to 8:00pm is allowed by Title
19.12. Staff supports the applicants request for a Waiver.

The Planning Department approved a request for a Conditional Use
12/05/16 Verification (CUV-68033) for an Open Air Vending (Good Time
Billiards) use at 5740 West Charleston Boulevard.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit for a proposed Tattoo Parlor/Body Studio
Piercing use at 707 Fremont Street, Suite #1140.
ISSUES
x A Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing Studio use is permitted in the C-2 (General

Commercial) zoning district with the approval of a Special Use Permit. Staff
recommends approval.
ANALYSIS
This is a request for a Special Use Permit for a proposed Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing
Studio use. The subject property is an existing commercial plaza (The Container Park).
The proposed use will be located within the rail car and caboose, which housed a
barber shop previously. The subject propertys current zoning is C-2 (General
Commercial); it is located within the Live Work Overlay and the Downtown
Entertainment Overlay Districts. There are trails that are adjacent to the subject
property: a Multi Non-Equestrian on 7th Street and the Downtown Trail on Fremont
Street. The proposed use is subject to the requirements Title 19 and the Downtown
Centennial Plan.
Proposed projects or uses located within the Las Vegas Downtown Centennial Plan
area are not subject to the automatic application of parking requirements. The subject
property is located on a major mass transit route and there are parking garages in the
immediate vicinity.
A Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing Studio use is permitted in the C-2 (General Commercial)
zoning district with the approval of a Special Use Permit. Additionally, the following
analysis is required:
The Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing Studio use is defined as An establishment whose

principal business activity, either in terms of operation or as held out to the public, is the
practice of one or more of the following:
RG
SUP-68768 [PRJ-68645]
1. The placing of designs, letters, figures, symbols or other marks upon or under the
skin of any person, using ink or other substances which result in the permanent
coloration of the skin by means of the use of needles or other instruments
designed to contact or puncture the skin.
2. The creation of an opening in the body of a person for the purpose of inserting
jewelry or other decoration.
This use does not include a permanent makeup establishment. The proposed use
meets the definition as the submitted justification letter, date stamped 01/26/17, clearly
states that the request is for a Tattoo Parlor to be located within the rail car and
caboose in Container Park.
There are no Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for this use.
The subject propertys zoning of C-2 allows the proposed Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing
Studio with an approved Special Use Permit. The proposed land use can be conducted
in a manner that is harmonious and compatible with existing surrounding and future
surrounding land uses; therefore, staff recommends approval of this request with
conditions. If this request is denied, the proposed use will not be permitted to operate at
the subject property.

The proposed Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing Studio use is proposed within the
Downtown Entertainment Overlay District and can be conducted in a manner that
is harmonious with the surrounding uses.
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for a Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing Studio, as
this area is designated for this and other similar types of uses.

RG
SUP-68768 [PRJ-68645]
Access to the site is provided via Fremont Street, an 80-foot wide Major Collector
according to the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. The right-of-way provides
adequate capacity to serve the proposed use.
The proposed Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing Studio would be subject to regular

inspection and would therefore not compromise the public health and safety.
The proposed Tattoo Parlor/Body Piercing Studio use meets all of the applicable
conditions of Title 19.12.

The City Council approved a Rezoning (Z-0100-64) from: R-1 (Single

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Site Development Plan Review for a proposed 2,420 square-foot
Restaurant with a Drive Through located on the west side of Martin L King Boulevard,
approximately 140 feet north of Mount Mariah Drive in the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district.
ISSUES
x A Site Development Plan Review is required for a Restaurant with Drive Through in
the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district.
x The Enterprise Park Architectural Review Committee has reviewed and approved
the proposed project.
x A Condition of Approval has been added for the replacement and rehabilitation of
dead and missing landscape materials.
x Wall signs demonstrated in the plans are not part of this review and will be reviewed

ANALYSIS
The subject site is a vacant, undeveloped 1.10 acre portion of a 1.96 acre site located
on the west side of Martin L. King Boulevard, approximately 140 feet north of Mount
Mariah Drive within Las Vegas Enterprise Park. The applicant has proposed to develop
a single story, 2,420 square-foot Restaurant with Drive Through.
The subject site is zoned C-1 (Limited Commercial) in which a Restaurant use is
permitted. The Drive Through use is a Conditional use in the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district. Those Conditions include:
1. A single-station drive through shall have a stacking lane that will accommodate a
minimum of six vehicles, including the vehicle at the station. A multiple-station
drive through shall have stacking lanes that will accommodate a minimum of
three vehicles per station, including the vehicle at that station.
2. The drive through shall be screened in accordance with LVMC 19.08.040 (F).
3. In the O (Office) and C-D (Designed Commercial) Districts a drive through shall
be separated from any residentially zoned property by an intervening building
and shall not have access to local residential streets.
NE
SDR-68741 [PRJ-68679]
The proposed Restaurant with Drive Through has met Conditions of Approval numbers
one and two, with three not being applicable.
Due to previous development south of the subject site, portions of the parking lot
landscape islands located in between the proposed restaurant and the existing
restaurant have already been installed, along with the perimeter landscaping along the
western perimeter. During a routine field check staff observed dead and missing
landscape materials within the existing western landscape buffer. Staff has added a
Condition of Approval requiring the missing and dead landscape materials to be
restored in accordance with the original approved landscape plan, Site Development
Plan Review (SDR-50831). The remaining landscaping to be installed meets the
minimum requirements set forth by Title 19.08 for perimeter landscape buffers and
parking lot islands.
The subject site is located within the Las Vegas Enterprise Park and is subject to the
development standards for the park. The Architectural Review Committee reviews
proposed projects during the course of three meetings. The Las Vegas Enterprise Park
Architectural Review Committee conditionally approved the proposed plans on 02/01/17
at the conclusion of meeting number two. After receiving the additional documentation
required after meetings one and two, the Architectural Review Committee held meeting
number three and approved the proposed project on March 1, 2017.
The commercial utilization of vacant land by constructing a new Restaurant with Drive
Through within Las Vegas Enterprise Park will encourage more business activity within
the area. Developing this highly visible, vacant lot adjacent to Martin L King Boulevard is
not only consistent with the Las Vegas Enterprise Park plan objectives, but the West
Las Vegas Plan objectives as well. There are a number of offices and commercial uses
throughout the existing commercial subdivision and the addition of a Restaurant with
Drive Through will add to the diversity of uses within the Las Vegas Enterprise Park.
All development standards are being met including the parking and landscaping
requirements set forth by Title 19 for the C-PB (Planned Business Park) zone. The
project is well designed and is an appropriate addition to the Las Vegas Enterprise
Park. For these reasons, staff is recommending approval of this application. If denied,
the proposed project will not be constructed.
FINDINGS (SDR-68741)
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:
1. The proposed development is compatible with adjacent development and

development in the area;
NE
SDR-68741 [PRJ-68679]
The proposed 2,420 square-foot restaurant development is compatible with the

surrounding development in the area and meets the intent of the Las Vegas
Enterprise Park plan.
2. The proposed development is consistent with the General Plan, this Title,
the Design Standards Manual, the Landscape, Wall and Buffer Standards,
and other duly-adopted city plans, policies and standards;
The proposed development is located within Las Vegas Enterprise Park. The
Architectural Review Committee for Las Vegas Enterprise Park reviewed the
proposed project and conditionally approved the project on 02/01/17.
3. Site access and circulation do not negatively impact adjacent roadways or

neighborhood traffic;
Site access is from an existing drive off of Martin L. King Boulevard, a 100-foot
Primary Arterial as classified by the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. There
is also shared access with the existing Restaurant with a Drive Through to the
south of the subject site that also provides access from Mount Mariah Drive, a 60-
foot Minor Collector Street as defined by Title 13 for Streets, Sidewalks and Public
Places. Both Martin L. King Boulevard and Mount Mariah Drive is sufficient in size
to provide site access for both the existing and proposed Restaurant with Drive
Through.
4. Building and landscape materials are appropriate for the area and for the
City;
The proposed elevations and landscape plan depict building and landscape
materials that are appropriate for a desert climate, and are consistent with existing
development throughout the Las Vegas Enterprise Park. The proposed landscape
materials include the Desert Palo Verde and the Chinese Pistache tree, with
Rosemary and Red Yucca shrubs. The proposed elevations demonstrate a
building with decorative canopies and stone veneer to match the existing
development in the area. The proposed Restaurant with Drive Through will
develop a currently vacant, undeveloped lot and will make a positive visual
improvement to the immediate area.
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;
NE
SDR-68741 [PRJ-68679]
The proposed building elevations depict a design that features modern

architectural elements that are consistent with the Las Vegas Enterprise Parks
development criteria, as well as the revitalization efforts of both the
Redevelopment Plan Area and the West Las Vegas Plan. The development has
received conditional approval from the Las Vegas Enterprise Park Architectural
Review Committee for the proposed buildings, materials, and landscaping on
02/01/17.
6. Appropriate measures are taken to secure and protect the public health,
safety and general welfare.
The proposed Restaurant with Drive Through will be subject to building permit
review and inspections during the construction phase, with the restaurant being
subject to the business license review process once the future tenant is ready to
inhabit the building. Therefore, appropriate measure will be taken to protect the
public health, safety and general welfare.

x The request is a result of the realignment of Bearden Drive with Goldring Avenue at
the intersection of Shadow Lane
x The change is requested by the Citys Public Works Department to better promote
the Las Vegas Medical District
ANALYSIS
The Citys Public Works Department is currently working on a project involving the
realignment of Bearden Drive and Goldring Avenue at the intersection of Shadow Lane.
Since, the project will result in a conjoining street bearing different names; the City has
requested that the new street created as a result of the realignment be named Wellness
Way. The re-aligned street segment will terminate on the west at Tonopah Drive and on
the east at Desert Lane, which will eventually become the Martin L King Boulevard right
of-way alignment with the completion of Project Neon. The applicant indicated in the
justification letter that the realignment of Goldring Avenue and Bearden Dive required
the purchase of a property located at 801 Shadow Lane. The property will be
demolished as part of the realignment project. The realignment project is scheduled to
begin in Summer 2017. Thirteen property owners and 14 existing addresses are
affected by the proposed street name change. The proposed street name has also been
reviewed and approved by the Fire & Rescue Department.
FINDINGS (SNC-68710)
Staff supports the requested Street Naming Change as it is consistent with the adopted
2009 Street Naming and Address Assignment Regulations.

** 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 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,
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.
NE
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.
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).
NE
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.

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
NE
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.
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
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.
NE

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.

The City Council approved the Annexation (ANX-63178) of 0.81 net
04/20/16 acres at 5664 North Rainbow Boulevard into the city of Las Vegas as
Bill 2016-22. The annexation became effective 04/29/16.

The Planning Commission approved a request to abey General Plan
01/10/17 Amendment (GPA-67883) and Rezoning (ZON-67884) until the
Planning Commission meeting scheduled for March 14, 2017.

08/12/05 A deed was recorded for a change in ownership on APN 125-26-410-004.

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

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 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
12/19/16 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.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This Major Modification to the Town Center Land Use Map removes the Montecito Town
Center Mixed Use Overlay from the Town Center Land Use Map, replaces it with the
Montecito Town Center (MC-TC) Land Use Designation, and re-designates all
properties currently regulated by the Montecito Mixed Use Commercial Overlay from
Main Street Mixed Use (MS-TC) and Urban Center Mixed-Use (UC-TC) to Montecito
(MC-TC).
ISSUES
x The Montecito Development Agreement will expire April 10th 2017.
x Due to the upcoming expiration of the Montecito Development Agreement, a related

Text Amendment (TXT-68323) will be considered in order to incorporate a new
Town Center land use, MC-TC (Montecito-Town Center), into the Town Center Plan.
x The parcels currently regulated by the Montecito Mixed-Use Commercial Overlay as

established by the Montecito Development Agreement are not compatible with their
underlying current Land Use designation as either Main Street Mixed-Use (MS-TC)
or Urban Center Mixed-Use (UC-TC).
x The Permitted Uses Table, as well as many definitions and procedures to which the
Montecito Mixed-Use Overlay refers to, are outdated and not in conformance with
the Town Center Development Standards Manual or Title 19 of the Las Vegas
Municipal Code.
ANALYSIS
Approximately 202 acres of land within the Town Center plan area are currently
designated as Main Street Mixed-Use (MS-TC) and Urban Center Mixed-Use (UC-TC),
and regulated by the Montecito Mixed Use Commercial Overlay, instated by the
Montecito Town Center Development Agreement and depicted on Map 4 (Town Center
Land Use) of the Town Center Development Standards Manual.
LM
MOD-68579 [PRJ-68578]
Per the provisions identified in Section 12.1 of the Montecito Town Center Development
Agreement, the agreement will expire on April 10th 2017. In order to maintain the current
rights of property owners and ensure desired future development for the area, this Major
Modification seeks to remove the Montecito Town Center Mixed Use Overlay from the
Town Center Land Use Map, replace it with the Montecito Town Center Land Use
Designation (MC-TC), and re-designate all properties currently regulated by the
Montecito Mixed Use Commercial Overlay from Main Street Mixed Use (MS-TC) and
Urban Center Mixed-Use (UC-TC) to Montecito (MC-TC).
Staff analyzed the Montecito Development Agreement as well as the Town Center
Development Manual, along with existing development within the Montecito Mixed-Use
Overlay area. This study revealed the following:
Permitted Uses: The Montecito Land Use Designation (MC-TC) as introduced by TXT-
68323, is compatible with the uses allowed on the subject property by the Montecito
Development Agreement, as well as with the surrounding land uses and zoning districts.
General Site Development Guidelines: Most of the guidelines present in the

Montecito Town Center Development Agreement refer to the Town Center Development
Standards Manual. A shift towards the Town Center Manual general site development
guidelines is therefore appropriate. These guidelines include, but are not limited to:
Streets/Circulation patterns, Streetscapes, Lighting, Sidewalk Hierarchy, Setbacks,
Walls, and Screens.
Parking: The Montecito Town Center Development Agreement references the Town
Center Development Standards Manual for parking requirements, and a shift towards
the Town Center Development Standards Manual is therefore appropriate.
Density and Height of Structures: The Montecito Town Center Development

Agreement limits maximum densities and maximum heights in the Plan area to the
following: a) 4,000,000 square feet of office, medical, retail and/or hotel; b) not to
exceed 1,600 residential dwelling units; and c) the permitted height of any building shall
not exceed five hundred feet (500). The Montecito Town Center Development
Agreement also describes building heights generally not to exceed twelve stories or
one-hundred-and-fifty feet (150), with greater heights that may be attained upon
approval of a Special Use Permit. In the Town Center Development Standards Manual
density and height are regulated by Table 2 Commercial Development Standards, and
Table 3 Building Height, Stepbacks and Build-to-Line Standards.
TXT-68323 will incorporate a Montecito (MC-TC) Land Use designation in the Town
Center Development Standards Manual Table 2, and properties within the Montecito
(MC-TC) land use designation will refer to Table 3 for building height, stepbacks, and
LM
MOD-68579 [PRJ-68578]
build-to-line standards. In the light of the height and density standards contained within
the Montecito Development Agreement, and the height and density standards in the
Town Center Development Standards Manual, Staff finds the density and height
standards for the Montecito Land Use (MC-TC) as introduced in TXT-68323 compatible
with the parcels affected by the Major Modification as well as with the vision set forth in
the Town Center Development Standards Manual.
Open Space: The Montecito Town Center Development Agreement indicates a 20

percent open space requirement as a final build-out of the project. The same
requirement of 20 percent open space is present in the Town Center Development
standards Manual for properties within the Urban Center Mixed Use (UC-TC), Suburban
Mixed Use (SX-TC), Main Street Mixed Use (MS-TC), as well as for the Montecito (MC-
TC) district as introduced by TXT-68323. The 20 percent open space requirement is
therefore appropriate for the properties affected by this Major Modification.
Signage: The signage requirements indicated in the Montecito Town Center

Development Agreement are compatible with the signage requirement indicated for
signs in the Urban Center Mixed Use (UC-TC), Suburban Mixed Use (SX-TC), Main
Street Mixed Use (MS-TC), and Montecito (MC-TC) of the Town Center Development
standards Manual.
FINDINGS (MOD-68579)
Staff finds the Major Modification compatible with the parcels within the project area, as
well as with the surrounding properties, thus recommends approval.

The City Council adopted the Town Center Development Standards
Manual to implement the Town Center Master Plan as a guide for
development of the Town Center plan area. Through its maps and text,
11/7/2001
it incorporates regulations and development standards affecting the
use of land within the Plan area, which is located within the Centennial
Hills Sector Plan boundaries.
The City Council adopted Ordinance #5464, which adopted the
4/3/2002
Montecito Town Center Development Agreement.
LM
MOD-68579 [PRJ-68578]

The City Council adopted Ordinance #5860, which adopted a revised
Town Center Development Standards Manual to provide for greater
10/04/2006 consistency with LVMC Title 19. The Planning Commission and staff
recommended approval of the Text Amendment (TXT-13863) which
was heard at the City Council as Bill Number 2006-53.
The Planning Commission voted (6-0) to hold this item (MOD-68579)
02/14/2017 in abeyance to the 03/14/17 Planning Commission meeting at the
request of City staff.
Public Meeting hosted at the Centennial Hills Community Center
Start: 7:00 End: 8:30
Attendees: 2 City Staff (Applicant), 6 Members of the Public
The meeting was started by giving background information on the

Montecito Development Agreement, its Plan area, its content, and its
expiration date. The participants appeared to be mostly current
residents of the areas directly adjacent to Major Modification subject
properties. Staff informed the participants on the expiration of the
Montecito Development Agreement, and thus the decision to initiate a
Major Modification for the parcels previously regulated by the
agreement in order to replace the regulatory framework with a new
02/09/2017
Land Use District to be added in the Town Center Development
Standards Manual. Staff displayed two maps representing the subject
properties for the Major Modification, the Town Center Land Use, and
the Town Center Zones, and distributed to the public a written
summary of the Major Modification and of the Town Center
Development Standards Manual Text Amendment. In particular, the
summary covered parts of the amendment regarding: the land use
designation boundary; the uses; the commercial development
standards; height, stepbacks, build-to-line; street design, streetscapes,
streetscape lighting, setback requirements, walls, screen walls, fences;
signs; residential and commercial design standards; and open space
requirements. Staff went over the summary and illustrated it point by
point, before opening the meeting to questions.
LM
MOD-68579 [PRJ-68578]
The questions and discussion regarded the following:
x The public asked for clarifications on the current land use
districts boundaries, the current Montecito Mixed-Use
Commercial Overlay boundary, and the boundary of the
proposed Major Modification for the Montecito (MC-TC) Land
Use district.
x The public asked for a clarification on the effects that the
Major Modification will have on the Timberlake community
with regards to future nearby development. Staff responded
by illustrating how the standards relative to the proposed
Montecito (MC-TC) Land Use incorporated the standards
previously regulating development within the Montecito Town
Center Development Agreement Plan area, thus there will not
be substantial changes for future development requirements.
Staff also mentioned the inclusion of provisions regarding the
Timberlake Buffer Area, a buffer zone intended to limit
negative impact for the Timberlake community, within the Text
Amendment.
The public inquired about open entitlement cases in various vacant

parcels within or nearby the Major Modification subject properties.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This request is for a Site Development Plan Review (SDR-68404) for a proposed 15-
story, 195-foot tall Mixed-Use development, consisting of 370 residential (studio) units
and 16,060 square feet of retail space, to be located at 1213 and 1215 South Las
Vegas Boulevard and 516 Park Paseo.
In addition, the applicant has requested a Rezoning (ZON-68403) in conjunction with

this application to rezone the subject site from C-1 (Limited Commercial) and C-2
(General Commercial) to: C-2 (General Commercial) to allow for consolidation of the lot.
Staff has determined the proposed project is compatible with surrounding development
in the area, therefore; staff recommends approval of this project with conditions.
ISSUES
x The subject Property is located within the John S Park Neighborhood Plan Area,
which recommends a five story (60) feet height for commercially zoned properties
along Las Vegas Boulevard
x Two parcels (APNs 162-03-112-028 and -029) are currently split-zoned C-1 (Limited
Commercial) and C-2 (General Commercial). The applicant has requested a
Rezoning (ZON-68403) to address the issue.
ANALYSIS
This project is located in the Las Vegas Downtown Centennial Plan Downtown South
District and proposes to construct a 15-story, 195-foot tall Mixed-Use development
consisting of 370 residential units and 16,060 square feet of retail space, to be located
at 1213 and 1215 South Las Vegas Boulevard and 516 Park Paseo.
The subject site consists of four parcels. Currently, one parcel (APN 162-03-112-022)
has a zoning designation of C-1 (Limited Commercial), and parcel (APN (162-03-112-
033) has a designation of C-2 (General Commercial). The remaining two parcels (APNs
162-03-112-028 and 029), have split-zoning C-1 (Limited Commercial) and C-2
(General Commercial). The applicant has requested a Rezoning (ZON-68403) on APNs
162-03-112-022, 028 and 029 from C-1 (Limited Commercial) and C-2 (General
Commercial) to C-2 (General Commercial), so the four parcels can be consolidated at a
later time. The C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district allows for retail and
commercial uses of an intense character, as well as mixed-use developments as a
conditional land use.
JB
ZON-68403 and SDR-68404 [PRJ-68241]
Mixed-Use is described in Title 19.12 as: The vertical integration of residential uses
and commercial or civic uses within a single building or a single development, where the
uses share pedestrian access, vehicular access, parking functions, or any combination
thereof. Per Title 19.12 the following conditional use regulations apply:

1. Residential uses permitted as of right in the R-3 and R-4 Zoning Districts are
permitted as conditional uses within a C-1 or C-2 Zoning District.
The applicant has proposed a Rezoning (ZON-68403) which will rezone the entire
subject site to a C-2 (General Commercial) zoning district, which allows residential uses
in conjunction with a Mixed Use Development.
2. Commercial uses or civic uses shall at a minimum be located at the ground level
fronting the primary public rights-of-way and may extend beyond the ground floor. The
principal entryway to access those uses, whether individually or collectively, shall be
directly accessed from and oriented to the public sidewalk.
The proposed Mixed-Use development provides 16,060 square feet of retail floor space
on the 1st and 2nd floor of the development which has access to the public side walk
fronting Las Vegas Boulevard.
3. Residential uses shall not be permitted on the ground floor fronting on primary public
rights-of-way, but may be located at or above the second level of the building.
Residential uses may be located on the ground floor of any building or portion thereof
that is located at the interior of the development site and does not front on an Arterial or
Collector Street.
The proposed Mixed-Use development provides 370 residential units on floors 2

through 15.
4. Surface parking lots shall be located to the side or the rear of the principal building(s)
on the site, and shall be screened from view of the adjacent rights-of-way by the
principal building(s) or a landscape buffer in conformance with the requirements of
LVMC Chapter 19.08. Parking structures shall not be located along the street frontages
of the development site, but shall be screened from view of the adjacent rights-of-way
by the principal building(s).
The proposed Mixed-Use development provides five levels of above ground parking
within a parking structure incorporated into the proposed building. Retail spaces line the
Las Vegas Boulevard frontage on first and second floors and the residential units line
the Las Vegas Boulevard frontage on floors four though fifteen. All surface parking lots
JB
ZON-68403 and SDR-68404 [PRJ-68241]
are located to the side and rear of the proposed building. The surface parking lot area
located on the northern perimeter of the site (APN 162-03-112-022) was approved by a
previously approved Site Development Plan Review (SDR-49169). The surface parking
area on the southern perimeter is located in the rear of the property and is screened by
existing walls.
The subject site is located within the Las Vegas Boulevard Scenic Byway Overlay
District and is subject to the sign standards listed in Title 19.10.160. In addition, the
subject site is located within the John S. Park Neighborhood Plan, which recommends
that the neighborhood association work with the City to impose a commercial building
height limit of sixty (60) feet or five (5) stories, whichever is greater along Las Vegas
Boulevard. However, no development standards to limit building height have ever been
brought forward. The Downtown Centennial Plan Downtown South district does not
impose building height limitations. Staff notes that the proposed Mixed Use
development provides a 44-foot rear yard setback. In addition, the development
proposes a design which steps the building height back from the rear of the site
adjacent to the single-family residential dwellings (88 Feet) toward the front of the site
fronting Las Vegas Boulevard (195 Feet), which greatly reduces the visual impact to the
existing John S. Park Neighborhood.
Except for handicapped parking, Title 19 parking requirements are not automatically
applied within the boundaries of the Downtown Centennial Plan Overlay District, but are
subject to conditions imposed by the City Council if needed. The site will provide 492
total parking spaces with nine ADA parking spaces. The parking structure includes 90
tandem parking spaces and 278 standard stalls. The remaining are surface lot parking
spaces located on the side and rear of the property. The parking area also provides
space for one trash room located on the northern perimeter of the building, which is
designed for a trash truck to pull directly inside.
All interior parking lot landscaping and landscape buffer planting materials have been
designed to comply with code requirements for spacing and quantities outlined in the
Downtown Centennial Plan. The submitted landscape plan indicates the site will provide
a three-foot landscape buffer along a portion of the southern property line and a 15-foot
landscape buffer along the eastern perimeter adjacent to the existing single-family
residential neighborhood. The primary tree species being utilized are 25-foot tall
Mexican Fan Palm, 36 box Raywood Ash, 36 box Mondell Pine and 24 box
Mediterranean Fan Palm trees.
The subject site is a partial block frontage (less than 50%), according to the Downtown
Centennial Plan threshold chart, and as such a covenant running with the land will be
JB
ZON-68403 and SDR-68404 [PRJ-68241]
required to obtain the property owners consent for future improvements. However, the
submitted plans indicate a 10-foot wide sidewalk with a five-foot amenity zone will be
provided with Mediterranean Fan Palm trees, which conforms to the Downtown
Centennial Plan Downtown South streetscape standards.
The site will need to be remapped to consolidate the existing parcels and platted lots.
The map must be recorded prior to the construction of the main building so as to
eliminate conflicts with existing property lines.
These parcels are currently served by the Las Vegas Valley Water District
(LVVWD). Civil and plumbing plans will need to be submitted to the LVVWD for
domestic meter sizing and fire flow. Proof of parcel consolidation will be required prior
to civil plan approval. Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) Regional Connection
Fees will be assessed on a per unit basis and will be due prior to civil plan approval.
Utility structures are required to be located within the building footprint, or underground,
pursuant the Downtown Centennial Plan.
The proposed use and design of this proposal will make a positive contribution to the
urban design for the residents in the immediate area and for the community at large.
Staff recommends approval of the requested Rezoning and Site Development Plan
Review for the proposed 15-story Mixed-Use development.
FINDINGS (ZON-68403)
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.
The proposed Rezoning from C-1 (Limited Commercial) and C-2 (General
Commercial) to C-2 (General Commercial) is in conformance with the existing C
(Commercial) designation under the Southeast Sector Plan of the General Plan.
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 applicant has proposed a Mixed-Use development on the subject site,

which is a conditional land use within the proposed C-2 (General Commercial)
zoning designation.
JB
ZON-68403 and SDR-68404 [PRJ-68241]
3. Growth and development factors in the community indicate the need for or
appropriateness of the rezoning.
The proposed mixed use development is consistent with Las Vegas 2020
Master Plan Policy 1.1.3, which encourages new market rate, multi-unit mixed-
use residential development on vacant or underutilized sites, with ground floor
commercial components included where appropriate.

adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed zoning district.
Primary site access is from Las Vegas Boulevard, a Primary Arterial (100-foot
wide) street according to the Master Plan of Streets and Highways and
secondarily from Park Paseo a Local Street as designated by Title 13. These
street facilities are adequate in size to provide suitable access to the site.

The proposed development provides stepbacks to focus the tallest portion of the
development on Las Vegas Boulevard in order to be compatible with the adjacent
residential development in the area. In addition, the applicant has provided
architectural features and sufficient landscaping creating an attractive
development.
The proposed mixed use development is consistent with Las Vegas 2020 Master
Plan Policy 1.1.3, which encourages new market rate, multi-unit mixed-use
residential development on vacant or underutilized sites, with ground floor
commercial components included where appropriate. In addition, the subject site
meets the requirements of Title 19 and Downtown Centennial Plan.

The subject site is accessed from Las Vegas Boulevard, a Primary Arterial (100-
foot wide) street, according to the Master Plan of Streets and Highways and Park
Paseo a Local Street as designated by Title 13, which provides suitable access
to the site.
City;
The proposed streetscape materials are consistent with the requirements of the
Downtown Centennial Plan and are appropriate for the area. The combination of
painted metal, concrete masonry veneer, clear glass guardrails, bare concrete
and tempered glazing for the exterior of the structure is appropriate for an urban
area and are consistent with the adjacent area

The building has been designed to have an aesthetically pleasing faade, with a
44-foot rear yard setback. The primary structure has been designed to step the
building height back from the rear of the site adjacent to the single-family
residential dwellings (88 Feet) toward the front of the site fronting Las Vegas
Boulevard (195 Feet), which greatly reduces the visual impact to the existing John
S. Park Neighborhood. The applicant has proposed to use a combination of
painted metal, concrete masonry veneer, clear glass guardrails, bare concrete
and tempered glazing for the exterior of the structure which is appropriate for an
urban area. The architectural elements of the faade are blended through the use
of complementary materials, colors and finishes throughout the entire building,
incorporating canopies along Las Vegas Boulevard adjacent to the proposed retail
floor space.
The site will be subject to ongoing inspection and will therefore not compromise
the public health, safety, and welfare or the overall objectives of the General Plan.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a Commercial Recreation/Amusement (Outdoor) go-cart track with a

waiver of Downtown Centennial Plan architectural standards on an existing parking lot
at 222 South Main Street.
ISSUES
x The request is to utilize an existing Hotel/Casino parking lot for an outdoor go-
cart track. Staff recommends denial of the request.
x A waiver from Downtown Centennial Plan architectural standards is required to
allow the use of a modular building on the subject site. Staff recommends denial
of the waiver request.
x The track will be located behind an existing chain link fence and no measures are
proposed to screen the use from the public right-of-way.
x The potential noise pollution resulting from a go-cart track is not compatible with
the Hotel Residence use located to the east across Main Street, as well as other
businesses in the immediate vicinity.
ANALYSIS
The request is to utilize an existing Hotel/Casino parking lot for an outdoor go-cart track.
The track will be located directly south of an existing parking garage on a parking lot
that is currently used for Plaza Hotel employees. The track configuration will vary as the
track barriers are movable and not anchored into the ground. Vehicular access will be
provided only to track employees via a sliding gate on the south side of the track.
Pedestrian access will be provided by an entryway from the Main Street frontage.
There is an existing chain link fence on the perimeter of the subject site that will remain
in place, and nothing is being proposed to screen the use from the right-of-way.
Additional chain link fencing will be installed interior to the site around the proposed
race track. A go-cart repair area will be located within a 30x40 space underneath the
existing parking structure, which will be out of the public view. No landscaping is
proposed or required with this Site Development Plan Review request.
A 672 square-foot modular building will be utilized as an on-site ticket office. The
proposed modular building does not meet the architectural standards required for the
Casino Core District of the Downtown Centennial Plan. The modular building does not
have a visually interesting faade, nor does it have the articulated roofline and/or
FS
SDR-68300 [PRJ-68298]
cornice required by the Downtown Centennial Plan. A waiver has been requested to
provide relief from all Downtown Centennial Plan architectural standards. Modular
buildings that are permanent in nature are not appropriate within the downtown core
and do not contribute to the overall design themes of the Downtown Centennial Plan.
Staff recommends denial of the waiver request.
The justification letter states that the go-carts are powered by a 6.5 horsepower
gasoline engine that will propel the carts to a speed of 15 to 20 miles per hour during
normal operations. The speed of the carts can be controlled remotely by a track
supervisor in case of emergencies. The applicant states that the carts have a
mechanical muffler, and a manufacturer document was provided showing static engine
noise measurements. Per the manufacturer, a static test with a background noise of
55db would result in a 67db reading at a distance of one meter, and a 60 db reading at
ten meters.
An operating hotel residence, which is intended for extended stay lodging, is located less
than 200 feet from portions of the proposed track. The provided noise measurements are
static tests which do not take into account noise levels during engine acceleration or the
cumulative effect of multiple go-carts operating at the same time. With the constant drone
of multiple go-cart engines under acceleration, it is likely that noise pollution will become a
nuisance for businesses in the immediate vicinity, as well as guests at the residence hotel,
since no measures are proposed to mitigate the noise transference.
The proposed go-cart track is not appropriate for the area as the track will not be screened
from public view, the modular building does not meet the intent of the Downtown
Centennial Plan architectural standards, and the carts may cause considerable noise
pollution for the surrounding area. Staff recommends denial of the request and associated
waiver.
Union Pacific Railroad Company (UP)
UP is a Delaware corporation that owns and operates a common carrier railroad network
in the western half of the United States, including the State of Nevada. UPs rail network is
vital to the economic health of Nevada and the nation as a whole and its rail service to
customers in the Las Vegas Area is crucial to the future success and growth of those
customers.
The proposed Project location is adjacent to UPs Caliente Subdivision. Additionally, there
may be at-grade rail crossings over these tracks in nearby locations. Any land planning
decisions should consider that train volumes near the Project area may increase in the
future. UP requests that if the City considers approving this Project, the City should
examine the risks associated with locating a race course so near to an active rail
corridor. UP also asks that the City and the applicant keep in mind that this is a vital rail
corridor and nearby land uses should be compatible with this continuing rail use.
FS
SDR-68300 [PRJ-68298]
Trespassing and Buffers/Setbacks
Any increase in pedestrian traffic will increase the likelihood of trespassing onto the
railroad right-of-way. UP requests that the developer and the City examine the Project
impacts associated with any increased likelihood of trespassing and set forth
appropriate mitigation measures. Buffers and setbacks should also be required
adjacent to the right-of-way.
Drainage and Project Construction
UP requests the City ensure that the drainage plan relating to the Project does not shift
storm water drainage toward UP property and infrastructure. Any runoff onto UPs
property may cause damage to its facilities resulting in a potential public safety issue. If
the Project is approved, we ask that the City require the applicant to mitigate all safety
risks and the impacts of the railroads 24-hour operations, including contacting UP to
arrange for flaggers for work performed within twenty-five feet (25) of the nearest track.

The proposed go-cart track is not compatible with adjacent development as the
track will not be screened from public view, the modular building does not meet
the intent of the Downtown Centennial Plan architectural standards, and the go-
carts may cause considerable noise pollution for the surrounding area.
The site is not consistent with the architectural standards of the Casino Core
District of the Downtown Centennial Plan and a waiver has been requested to
provide relief from those standards.

Site access and circulation does not negatively impact adjacent roadways or
neighborhood traffic.
FS
SDR-68300 [PRJ-68298]
City;
The proposed building materials are not appropriate for the area or the City as the
modular building does not meet the architectural standards of the Downtown
Centennial Plan. There is no landscaping proposed with this development.

The proposed modular building does not meet the architectural standards of the
Casino Core District of the Downtown Centennial Plan. The proposed modular
building does not have a visually interesting faade, nor does it have the required
articulated roofline and/or cornice. As such, the proposed modular building is not
harmonious or compatible with development in the area.
Appropriate measures have been taken to secure and protect the public health,

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing a non-gated four lot residential subdivision on the northeast
corner of Azure Drive and Eula Street.
ISSUES
x A Waiver (WVR-68775) of Title 19.02.240 to allow no exterior and interior

streetlights where such are required and Title 19.02.140 to allow an intersection
offset of 180 feet where 220 feet is required for the proposed non-gated residential
subdivision. Staff does not support this request.
x A Variance (VAR-68774) of Title 19.04 to allow a 39-foot wide private street where
47 feet is required; no sidewalk, amenity zone, or curb and gutters where such are
required. Staff does not support this request.
x A Vacation (VAC-68776) has been requested to vacate the U.S. Government Patent
Easements.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is proposing to develop the subject property into a four-lot residential
subdivision. The property is zoned R-E (Residence Estates) and is subject to Title 19
development standards for subdivision and complete street standards.
The applicant has requested a Waiver (WVR-68775) of the Street Lighting requirements
to allow no street lights within the exterior and interior subdivision streets; and to allow
an intersection offset of 180 feet where 220 feet is required. The applicant has also
requested a Variance (VAR-68774) to allow no sidewalk, amenity zone, or curb and
gutters where such are required. The resulting street width, once these items are
omitted, will be 39 feet where 47 feet is required. The proposed residential subdivision
will not provide any of the required improvements. Lastly, a Vacation (VAC-68776) has
been requested to Vacate, a three-foot wide portion along Azure Drive and Eula Street;
and a 33-foot wide along the east perimeter of the subject property of an existing U.S.
Government Patent Easements.
RG
In summary, staff supports the requested Vacation of a petition to vacate the existing
U.S Government Patent Easement. The City is currently working on building complete
streets throughout the city. No unique or extraordinary evidence has been presented to
warrant the requested Waivers and Variance. The hardship is self-imposed and;
therefore, staff recommends denial of the aforementioned applications of this project.
FINDINGS (WVR-68775)
No substantial evidence has been presented to warrant the requested Waiver of Title
19.02 to allow no streetlights along the proposed interior and exterior streets and to
allow a 180-foot external intersection offset, where 220 feet is the minimum distance
separation required, staff recommends denial of these requests. If this application is
approved, it is subject to conditions.
order to:

3. Relieve a hardship which is solely personal, self-created or financial in nature.

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

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing to not construct the
required improvements associated with the rights-of-way within the subject site. 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.
RG
FINDINGS (VAC-68776)
This Vacation request should be sent to all the utilities however, as no right of way is
proposed to be vacated, and thus no franchise rights are involved, it is not necessary to
wait for responses from any of the public utilities or other parties interested in preserving
a right in this patent easement. Since only City interests are involved; any utility
company's interests will need to be addressed with each respective utility company and
will not be affected by the City relinquishing its interest. Furthermore, we recommend
that this item be declared Final Action at the Planning Commission.

The City Council approved a request for a Petition of Annexation
(ANX-65643) of 2.46 acres at the northeast corner of West Azure Way
10/05/16
and North Eula Way. The Planning Department recommended


There are no related building permits or business licenses for this property.
A pre-application meeting was held with the applicant to discuss the
01/25/17 submittal requirements for a Waiver, Variance and Vacation
applications; for a four-lot residential subdivision.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant has proposed a Major Amendment to an approved Plot Plan Review [Z-
0031-73(6)] for a proposed 762 square-foot addition to the rear of an existing dental
office at 1212 South Maryland Parkway.
ISSUES
x Per Title 19.16.100(F) since there are associated Variances requested with the
proposed building addition to the existing building on the subject site, a Major
Amendment is required for Plot Plan Review [Z-0031-73(6)].
x A Variance (VAR-67970) is required to allow no additional parking spaces where two
additional parking spaces are required for a parking impaired development. Staff
recommends denial of this request.
x A Variance (VAR-67971) is required to allow a five-foot rear yard setback where 15
feet is required. Staff recommends denial of this request.
x A Variance (VAR-68417) is required to allow the existing freestanding sign at a zero-
foot setback where 5 feet is required.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is located within a P-R (Professional Office and Parking) zoning district,
which allows a Dental Office as a permitted land use. On August 4th, 1975 the Planning
Commission approved Plot Plan Review [Z-0031-73(6)] for the proposed conversion of
an existing 1,303 square-foot single family residence to a professional office at the
subject site. In addition, the front yard porch area located on the eastern perimeter of
the building totaling 160 square feet was enclosed without permits, bringing the existing
building to 1,463 square feet in size. As depicted on the submitted site plan, the
proposed 762 square-foot building addition will bring the total area of the building to
2,225 square feet and will require the need for a rear yard setback Variance (VAR-
67971) to allow a five-foot rear yard setback where 15 feet is required.
The proposed increase in floor area intensifies the amount of required parking on the
subject site. Documentation associated with the previously approved Plot Plan Review
[Z-0031-73(6)], indicates that three parking spaces were originally required for the
previously approved 1,303 square-foot Dental Office development. However the site
design provided seven on-site parking spaces with no ADA parking space. A total of
JB
922 square feet has been proposed to be added since that approval, which includes the
previously enclosed 160 square-foot front porch area and the 762 square-foot rear yard
building addition. Under current Title 19.12 parking requirements the additional 922
square feet in floor area triggers the need for six additional parking spaces on the
subject site, which brings the total amount of parking required to nine parking spaces.
The submitted site plan depicts a total of 6 parking spaces, including one van-
accessible parking space. The applicant has requested an additional Variance (VAR-
67970) to allow no additional parking spaces where three additional parking spaces are
required for a parking impaired development. No additional onsite spaces would be
provided.
As depicted on the submitted site plan the subject site is not in compliance with the
approved landscape plan associated with the Plot Plan Review [Z-0031-73(6)], which
depicted landscape buffers within the Norman Avenue and Maryland Parkway right-of-
way. A previously approved plot plan associated with Variance (V-0035-80), indicated
that a landscape buffer with a width of approximately five feet was required within the
right-of-way adjacent to Norman Avenue and Maryland Parkway. Historical aerial
photographs show that the planting materials were removed from the landscape buffers
circa Spring of 2004 and the landscape buffers were covered with asphalt circa Spring
of 2006. However, since this landscaping was not required on-site no Waivers of
required landscaping are required with this request.
The submitted building elevations indicate the proposed 762 square-foot expansion will
be 13.5 feet in height measured to the mid-point of the sloped roof and match the
aesthetic of the rest of the building with a painted stucco exterior.
In addition, an existing freestanding sign has been erected on the southeast portion of
the subject site without obtaining building permits. The existing sign is approximately 9
feet wide and 12 feet high and crosses the property line into the adjacent Norman
Avenue right-of-way. The applicant has requested a Variance (VAR-68417) to allow the
existing freestanding sign at a zero-foot setback where 5 feet is required from the
property line. A license agreement is also required via added Condition of Approval
Staff has determined the proposed project is not compatible with surrounding
development in the area, as demonstrated by the associated Variances. The applicant
is proposing to over-build the site, and the lack of on-site parking can result in overflow
into the adjacent residential neighborhood. Therefore, staff recommends denial of this
project.

order to:



applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing a 762 square-foot increase
in floor area and 160 square-foot enclosed patio to an existing building for an existing
Dental Office use which requires additional parking on the subject site. The proposed
addition would create a site with insufficient parking and result in a 15% deviation from
standard parking requirements. A less intense development proposal 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.

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by erecting a freestanding sign without
permits for an existing Dental Office use which does not meet the five-foot setback
requirements for the P-R (Professional Office and Parking) zoning district. 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 development of the subject site is not consistent with surrounding
development in the area. The applicant has proposed a 922 square-foot building
addition to an existing commercial building for an existing Dental Office use, which
includes the unpermitted 160 square-foot patio addition and proposed 762
building addition. This increase in floor area represents a 70% increase in floor
area from the previously approved Plot Plan Review (Z-0102-96). The proposed
addition would create a site with insufficient parking and result in a 33% deviation
from standard parking requirements and insufficient building setbacks along the
rear property line.
The proposed development of the subject site is consistent with the O (Office)
General Plan designation. The requested Variance (VAR-67970) to allow no
additional parking spaces where three additional parking spaces are required for a
parking impaired development, Variance (VAR-67971) to allow a five-foot rear
yard setback where 15 feet is required and Variance (VAR-68417) to allow the
existing freestanding sign at a zero foot setback where 5 feet is required are not
consistent with Title 19.

The primary access to the site will remain unchanged. Currently, the site is
accessed from Maryland Parkway Avenue, a 60-foot Primary Arterial and Norman
Avenue a 50-foot Local Street, which provides adequate capacity to serve the
proposed use.

The subject site is not in compliance with the landscaping plan utilized from the
previously approved Plot Plan Review [Z-0031-73(6)], which depicted landscape
buffers within the Norman Avenue and Maryland Parkway right-of-way which have
been removed. However, since this landscaping was not required on-site no
Waivers of required landscaping are required with this request. The submitted
building elevations indicate the proposed building addition will match the aesthetic
of the rest of the building with a painted stucco exterior.
The proposed building addition to the existing building will be subject to

inspections in order to protect the public health, safety and general welfare by City
staff.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to construct a 48.5-foot tall mixed use development with
3,010 square feet of commercial floor space and 63 for-rent multi-family residential units
on the southwest corner of Casino Center Boulevard and Colorado Avenue.
ISSUES
x A Variance (VAR-69103) is required to allow 18-foot parking lot drive aisles where
24 feet is required within the parking garage.
x Within 18b The Las Vegas Arts District of the Downtown Centennial Plan, a Mixed
Use development is permitted with the approval of a Special Use Permit in the C-2
(General Commercial) zoning district.
x The site must be remapped to combine the existing platted lots prior to the issuance
of permits for construction of the primary building. A condition has been added to the
site review to address this issue.
ANALYSIS
This project is located in the Las Vegas Downtown Centennial Plan 18b Arts District
and Downtown South District and proposes to construct a four-story Mixed-Use
development with 63 residential units and 3,010 square feet of retail space, located on
the southwest corner of Casino Center Boulevard and Colorado Avenue.
The subject site is currently comprised of three parcels with a zoning designation of C-2
(General Commercial), which allows for retail and commercial uses of an intense
character, as well as mixed-use developments. Mixed-Use developments are allowed in
the 18b Arts District with an approved Special Use Permit.
Mixed Use is defined as, The vertical integration of residential uses and commercial or
civic uses within a single building or a single development, where the uses share
pedestrian access, vehicular access, parking functions, or any combination thereof.
The proposed use meets this definition, as a four-story building is proposed that
integrates commercial uses and parking on the ground level and multi-family residential
uses above. This use requires a Special Use Permit in any zoning district located within
the boundaries of 18b The Las Vegas Arts District.
JB
1. Residential uses permitted as of right in the R-3 and R-4 Zoning Districts may be
permitted by means of a Special Use Permit within a P-O, O or C-PB Zoning
District.
This requirement does not apply, as the development would be located in the C-2
2. Nonresidential uses permitted as of right in the P-O, O and C-1 Zoning Districts
may be permitted by means of a Special Use Permit within an R-3 or R-4 Zoning
District.
This requirement does not apply, as the development would be located in the C-2
3. Commercial uses or civic uses shall at a minimum be located at the ground level
fronting the primary public rights-of-way and may extend beyond the ground
floor. The principal entryway to access those uses, whether individually or
collectively, shall be directly accessed from and oriented to the public sidewalk.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the commercial floor space will be
located at ground level facing Casino Center Boulevard.
4. Residential uses shall not be permitted on the ground floor fronting on primary
public rights-of-way, but may be located at or above the second level of the
building. Residential uses may be located on the ground floor of any building or
portion thereof that is located at the interior of the development site and does not
front on an Arterial or Collector Street.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the proposed Mixed-Use

Development provides 63 residential units on floors two through four.
5. Surface parking lots shall be located to the side or the rear of the principal
building(s) on the site, and shall be screened from view of the adjacent rights-of-
way by the principal building(s) or a landscape buffer in conformance with the
requirements of LVMC Chapter 19.08. Parking structures shall not be located
along the street frontages of the development site, but shall be screened from
view of the adjacent rights-of-way by the principal building(s).
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the proposed development

provides 33 ground level parking spaces, which are screened from view by the
building facade.
JB
The overall site consists of three parcels, which total approximately 0.49 acres. Vehicular
access is provided via an alley way on the west side of the subject site, which provides
ingress and egress to the first floor parking and retail level of the building. Pedestrian
access to the site is located on the northeast corner of the site. The proposed building
includes 63, one-bedroom residential units and 3,010 square feet of retail space, which
is located along Casino Center Boulevard.
The submitted floor plan indicates the proposed development will provide 33 parking
spaces and a centralized bicycle rack/storage area within a single-level parking garage
located on the ground floor of the structure. The applicant is deficient by a total of 75
parking spaces pursuant to Title 19.12 requirements. Title 19.10.110(C) exempts
properties within the Downtown Centennial Plan area from the automatic application of
standard parking requirements. However, the exemption does not prohibit City staff, the
Planning Commission, and the City Council from imposing limitations on the approval of
a Site Development Plan Review.
The parking garage layout contains 90-degree parking accessed by a one-way U-
shaped drive aisle measuring 18 to 22 feet wide. Pursuant to Title 19.08.110(C)(2)(c),
the minimum access aisle for one-way traffic with 90-degree parking is 24 feet. Title
19.08.110(C)(2)(d) allows parking structures to be subject to dimensional adjustments
based on utilization. Reductions in design standards for parking structures shall be
subject to approval by the Director. The Planning and Development Department has
established that 18-foot wide drive aisles are not functional for appropriate internal site
circulation, and that the site would function more efficiently with a uniform 22-foot wide
drive aisle. A condition of approval was imposed on the previously approved Site
Development Plan Review (SDR-33019), which required the previous applicant to
revise the site plan to provide minimum 22-foot wide driveway aisles within the parking
structure. Since that requirement has still not been met with this resubmittal, the
applicant has request a Variance (VAR-69103) to allow 18-foot parking lot drive aisles
where 24 feet is required within the parking garage.
Downtown Centennial Streetscape Standards have been not met along the sides of the
building facing Casino Center Boulevard and Colorado Avenue with regard to the
proposed width of the sidewalk and amenity area widths, which require a 10-foot
sidewalk and five-foot amenity zone. The submitted street cross sections indicate a
seven-foot amenity zone and 7.5-foot sidewalk will be provided along Casino Center
Boulevard, with a ten-foot amenity zone and seven-foot sidewalk provided along
Colorado Avenue. The submitted landscape plan indicates 36 box African Sumac at
20-foot intervals will be provided along Casino Center Boulevard and Colorado Avenue,
which meet Downtown Centennial Plan development standards. However, the subject
site qualifies as a partial block frontage at outlined in the Downtown Centennial Plan
Threshold document, which indicates any streetscape not implemented due to existing
conditions will require a Covenant Running with Land to obtain property owners
consent for future improvements.
JB
The submitted elevations depict a four-story, 48.5-foot tall Mixed-Use development.

Vehicular access to the ground floor is accessed via an alleyway off of Colorado
Avenue. The ground floor contains 3,010 square feet of retail space and 33 parking
spaces, which includes two handicapped parking spaces. A small plaza located
adjacent to the northeast corner of the site accesses the elevator lobby for the
residential units and provides an entry for the retail space. The top three floors contain
63, one-bedroom residential units, which will be accessed via open gate breezeways
which access the elevator and stairwells provided at the northeast and southwest
corners of the building. Additionally, each floor will contain an enclosed laundry room.
The typical one-bedroom floor plan indicates that all of the rental units will be an
identical 450 square feet in size, containing an open kitchen, living and dining area,
bedroom area, private bathroom and storage closets. The applicant is proposing to
utilize corrugated metal painted three colors including; blue, orange, and green. The
use of building colors, mass and scale, and overall building design furthers the goals of
the Arts District of the Downtown Centennial Plan, which state that: the goal of the Arts
District is to encourage building design that contributes to the quality of life in an active,
aesthetically considered manner.
The applicant would be deficient by a total of 75 parking spaces pursuant to Title 19.12
requirements. Except for handicapped parking, Title 19 parking requirements are not
automatically applied within the boundaries of the Downtown Centennial Plan Overlay
District, but are subject to conditions imposed by the City Council if needed. The
submitted ground floor plan indicates the 33 parking spaces including two handicap-
accessible parking spaces will be provided on-site for the residential units and
commercial uses. However, staff does not support the quantity of parking that will be
provided for the overall development, as it is less than one parking space per residential
unit, with no guest parking and no additional parking for the proposed commercial
tenant space, which will force residents and guests to find parking on adjacent streets.
This will negatively impact the surrounding area.
The subject site is comprised of three parcels, which will need to be remapped to
consolidate the existing parcels and platted lots. The map must be recorded prior to the
construction of the main building so as to eliminate conflicts with existing property lines.
These parcels are currently served by Las Vegas Valley Water District (LVVWD) but
they do not have the required backflow prevention per NAC 445A.67195. Civil and
plumbing plans will need to be submitted to LVVWD for domestic meter sizing, fire flow
availability and backflow prevention installation. Proof of parcel lot consolidation will be
required prior to civil plan approval. Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) regional
connections fees will be assessed on a per unit basis and fees will need to be paid prior
to civil plan approval and building permit sign-off. It should be noted that the existing
water services are located on Colorado Avenue and there are water mains available to
serve the development on both Colorado Avenue and Casino Center Boulevard. The
current site plan does not provide for adequate space onsite for the above-ground
JB
backflow prevention assemblies that cannot be placed in the sidewalk. The applicant
has been notified that they may need to revise the site plan to allow for outdoor utility
placement along Colorado Avenue or Casino Center Boulevard. A condition has been
added to insure all mechanical equipment and trash areas comply with Downtown
Centennial Plan screening requirements.
The interior circulation of this proposal will not allow a functional parking facility, which
will exacerbate the very limited parking for the project. Staff recommends denial of the
requested Variance (VAR-69103), Special Use Permit (SUP-68777) and Site
Development Plan Review (SDR-68778), for the proposed four-story Mixed-Use
development with conditions.

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing to install 18-foot drive
aisles where 24 feet is required within the parking garage, which do not provide
sufficient room for proper vehicle circulation. In view of the absence of any hardships
JB

The development would provide opportunities for urban living in the Downtown
area near commercial uses and is adjacent to established public transportation
lines. However, the proposed development is not consistent with Title 19.08
parking drive-aisle width requirements, which renders the parking facility non-
functional for public use.
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for a Mixed-Use development of the scope
proposed, however by proposing parking facilities that are non-functional for
public parking this development proposal will force all parking to occur offsite. This
may be detrimental to the surrounding neighborhood.

Access to the development is proposed via a public alley off of Colorado Avenue,
which is a 80-foot right-of-way that is well under capacity at this time. These
facilities are adequate to meet the needs of the mixed use development.
The proposed mixed use development will be subject to permit and licensing
requirements and periodic inspections, thereby protecting the public health, safety
and general welfare.
The proposed Mixed-Use project meets all the required minimum Special Use
Permit Requirements pursuant to Title 19.12.
JB

The proposed mixed-use development is compatible with development in the

vicinity, with the exception of the requested Variance (VAR-69103) to allow 18-
foot drive aisles where 24 feet is required within the proposed parking garage.
The proposed mixed use development is consistent with Las Vegas 2020 Master
Plan Policy 1.1.3, which encourages new market rate, multi-unit mixed-use
residential development on vacant or underutilized sites, with ground floor
commercial components included where appropriate. However, by proposing
parking facilities that are non-functional, the proposal is inconsistent with Title 19.

Access to the development is proposed via a public alley off of Colorado Avenue,
which is a 80-foot right-of-way that is well under capacity at this time. These
facilities are adequate to meet the needs of the mixed use development.
City;
The landscape materials are appropriate for this area of the City. The building
materials are also appropriate for the area of the City, which is represented in the
use of various colors of painted corrugated metal. The proposed landscaping is
also harmonious with the surrounding development as it complies with the
Downtown Centennial Plan Streetscape requirements.

JB
The building elevations indicate an aesthetically pleasing and harmonious modern

mid-rise development. The use of building colors, mass and scale, and the overall
building design furthers the goals of the Arts District, which encourages building
designs that contribute to the character and quality of life in an active, aesthetically
considered manner.
The proposed plan will not impact public health, safety or welfare since the
development will be subject to the International Building Code and City
inspections during construction.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request to construct a garage within a required side yard setback area. The
garage is proposed to be built on the west side of the property at 6141 West El Campo
Grande Avenue.
ISSUES
x The R-D (Single Family Residential-Restricted) zoning district requires accessory

structures to have a side yard setback of 10 feet. The applicant proposes to
construct a garage with a one-foot side yard setback. Staff recommends denial of
the request.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting a Variance in order to construct a garage with a side yard
setback of one foot. The subject site is located within the R-D (Single Family
Residential-Restricted) zoning district, which requires accessory structures to have a
minimum side yard setback of 10 feet. The site is surrounded by single family dwellings
to the east, south and west. The shared side property line that will be affected by the
applicants request is a Clark County property adjacent to the west. It is zoned R-E
Rural Estates Residential. Per the submitted justification letter, the proposed garage
will have stucco and tile to match the exterior faade of the existing residence on the
property. The garage will maintain a six-foot distance separation from the principal
dwelling. The applicant has failed to provide any substantial evidence to justify the
approval of the requested Variance.
Since this is a self-imposed hardship created by the owner, staff recommends denial of
the request. If approved, the applicant will be able to construct a new garage with a
side yard setback of one foot. If denied, the applicant will be required to reposition their
proposed garage in order to meet Title 19 requirements.

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.

There are no related relevant city actions on file.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request to construct a house within a required front yard and rear yard setback
area. The house is proposed to be built on the west side of Homestead Street,
approximately 140 feet north of Horse Drive.
ISSUES
x The R-E (Residence Estates) zoning district requires principal dwellings to have a
rear yard setback of 35 feet and a front yard setback of 50 feet. The applicant
proposes to construct a house with a 22-foot rear yard setback and a front yard
setback of 30 feet. Staff recommends denial of the request.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is located within the R-E (Residence Estates) zoning district, which
requires principal buildings to have a minimum rear yard setback of 35 feet and a
minimum front yard setback of 50 feet. The applicant is requesting a Variance in order
to construct a new single family dwelling with a rear yard setback of 22 feet and a front
yard setback of 30 feet. Per the submitted justification letter, the proposed house
configuration is requested in order to allow for optimum heat loss/gain from the sun. It
was also noted in the justification letter that some neighboring parcels have less
restrictive front yard setback requirements. While this may be true, the subject site is
adjacent to Clark County properties to the north and west and City properties zoned R-E
(Residence Estates) and R-PD2 (Residential Planned Development 2 unit/gross acre)
to the south and east. Each parcel is only subject to the regulations of its assigned
zoning district. If the applicant wants to be subject to a less restrictive front yard
setback requirement, the proper protocol would be to apply for a rezoning.
Since this is a self-imposed hardship created by the owner, staff recommends denial of
the request. If approved, the applicant will be able to construct a new single family
dwelling with a front yard setback of 30 feet and a rear yard setback of 22 feet. If
denied, the applicant will have to reposition the proposed house in order to meet Title
19 requirements.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a 25-foot front yard setback for a
proposed 6,013 square-foot single family dwelling on a property located on the north
side of Palomino Lane, approximately 150 feet west of Shetland Road.
ISSUES
x The Variance request is to allow a 25-foot front yard setback for a proposed single
family dwelling. Pursuant to Title 19.08.040(A) of the archived zoning codes, the
minimum front yard setback in the R-A (Ranch Acres) zoning district is 50 feet.
ANALYSIS
The subject property is located in an R-A (Ranch Acres) zoning district, which has a
minimum lot size of 40,000 square feet. The subject property is currently undeveloped
with lot size of 0.27 acres, or 11,761 square feet. The subject property is considered a
legal non-conforming lot. This property is subject to the requirements of Title
19.08.040(A) of the archived zoning codes. The proposed single family dwelling will not
have an impact on the Airport Overlay and Rural Preservation Overlay Districts.
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a 25-foot front yard setback for a
proposed single family dwelling. Pursuant to Title 19.08.040(A) in the archived zoning
codes, the required setback for the R-A zoning is 50 feet; therefore, this would be a
deviation from the code by 50 percent. A similar sized and zoned lot located
immediately to the west contains a residence that meets the required setbacks.
The submitted plans also include an Accessory Structure (Class II) [Casita] with no full
kitchen facility. The accessory structure meets all development standards pursuant to
Title 19.08 of the archived zoning codes. However, pursuant to Title 19.08.040(B)(1)(a)
states, no accessory structure shall be erected or moved onto any lot prior to
construction of the main building unless a building permit has been issued for
construction of the main building.
The applicant has proposed a single family dwelling that cannot meet the front yard
setback. The applicant has presented no evidence of a unique or extraordinary
circumstance for the Variance request. The proposed layout of the single family
dwelling has created a self-imposed hardship which failed to meet the front yard
setback requirements; therefore, staff recommends denial. If approved, staff
recommends it be subject to the conditions included in this report.
RG
VAR-68805 [PRJ-68736]
order to:



applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by providing a footprint of the proposed
single family dwelling that does not meet the front yard setback requirements. An
alternative to avoid a Variance application is redesigning the proposed single family
dwelling at the front yard setback which 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 Planning Commission denied a request for a Variance (VAR-
21610) to allow a front yard setback of 20 feet where 50 feet is the
08/09/07
minimum required and a side yard setback of five feet where 10 feet is
the minimum required on the subject site. Staff recommended denial.

RG
VAR-68805 [PRJ-68736]

There are no building permits or business licenses found for this property.
A pre-application meeting was conducted by staff with the applicant.
The setback requirements for a proposed single-family residential were
01/26/17 discussed. The front yard setback for the proposed house does not
meet the R-A zoning district standards. A Variance application is
required.
Field Check
A field check was conducted by staff and observed an undeveloped
02/02/17
property free of trash and debris.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a 12-foot maximum overall height for the rear
perimeter wall on a property located at 3030 Builders Avenue.
ISSUES
x The Variance request is to allow an additional four-foot tall wrought iron fence on top of an
existing eight-foot tall concrete masonry unit wall. Pursuant to Title 19.08, a maximum of
eight feet is allowed for a perimeter wall; therefore, staff does not support this request.
x This application is a result of a Code Enforcement case (#172697).
ANALYSIS
The subject property is located on an M (Industrial) zoning district and is subject to Title 19.08
development standards. The subject property has an active business license for an Auto
Repair Garage, Major use.
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a four-foot tall wrought iron fence above an
existing eight-foot tall concrete masonry unit wall located in the rear of the property; for a
maximum overall height of 12 feet. The existing eight-foot wall was permitted, but the razor
wire above it was not, which resulted in a Code Enforcement case (#172697). Since the razor
wire is incorporated on the top of the existing wall, the overall height exceeds the maximum
height permitted by code. If this application is approved, a condition has been added to
remove the existing razor wire.
The proposed four-foot wrought iron fence above the existing eight-foot concrete masonry unit
wall exceeds the maximum height requirement. The applicant is creating a self-imposed
hardship. Therefore, staff recommends denial of this request. If the application is denied, the
existing razor wire shall be removed.
Council, in considering the merits of a Variance request, shall not grant a Variance in order to:
RG
VAR-68840 [PRJ-68539]


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.

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing a wall height that exceeds the
maximum height requirements. The alternative to this Variance application is to remove the
razor wire above the existing eight-foot concrete masonry unit wall which 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 City Council approved a Rezoning (Z-0066-64) from C-1 (Limited
08/13/64 Commercial) to M (Industrial) on Lot 2, Block 1 of the East-Park
Industrial Subdivision, Unit #1.
20650) for a 2,160 square-foot commercial building with a waiver to
06/20/07 allow a 10-foot wide landscape buffer along the north property line
where a 15-foot wide landscape buffer is required at 3030 Builders
Avenue. The Planning Commission and staff recommended approval.
A Code Enforcement case (#172697) was processed for zoning
12/01/16
violations at 3030 Builders Avenue. The case is currently active.

December 13, 2016 - Planning Commission Meeting
** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to construct up to 66 Senior Citizen Apartment units in a

single building on 0.79 acres on the north side of Sahara Avenue between 6th Street
and Maryland Parkway. The facility would be operated by a religious agency that
already operates social services on an adjacent parcel. The building is proposed to be
four stories in height and contain stacked one and two-bedroom units. An existing
church-affiliated senior apartment building would be demolished to provide space for
this development.
ISSUES
x Senior Citizen Apartments is a conditional use in the C-1 (Limited Commercial)

zoning district. However, Conditional Use Regulations 2 and 5 cannot be met by the
proposal; therefore, pursuant to Title 19.12.040(B), approval of a Special Use Permit
is required for this use.
x The site is located along a paved 60-foot private access easement north of Sahara
Avenue. The western edge of the development is located within this easement;
however, no part of the proposed building would be within the easement. It is
unclear at this time whether the applicant has a legal right to build within the
easement; a condition of approval requires the applicant to confirm this prior to the
issuance of any permits.
x Waivers are requested for a zero-foot perimeter landscape buffer along the west
property line, a three-foot landscape buffer along a portion of the north property line
and a five-foot buffer along a portion of the south property line where eight feet is
required. Staff recommends denial of the waivers.
x The trash enclosure for this development is proposed to be located offsite on APN
162-03-801-138. The enclosure would be located at the edge of the private access
easement and unscreened from view. An Exception of Title 19.08.040 is required.
Staff does not support this Exception.
x No onsite parking is proposed by this project. A minimum of 50 spaces are to be
provided offsite on the nearby parcel (APN 162-03-801-003) located 150 feet to the
northwest, and an additional 29 spaces are to be provided offsite on the adjacent
parcel to the west (APN 162-03-801-138). Prior to the issuance of permits for site
development, a perpetual offsite parking agreement must be recorded satisfying the
parking requirements for this development; otherwise, a variance will be needed for
zero parking spaces where 50 onsite spaces are required until such time as this
agreement is recorded.
SS
SUP-67480 and SDR-67483 [PRJ-67445]
x The existing lots where the senior citizen apartment building is proposed must be
combined through a separate administrative mapping action prior to the issuance of
building permits for construction.
ANALYSIS
The Senior Citizen Apartments use is defined as an apartment house or other

multifamily dwelling in which each unit is occupied by at least one person 55 years of
age or older, or in which the units are intended and operated for occupancy by persons
55 years of age or older. This use includes an apartment house or other multi-family
dwelling that qualifies as housing for older persons under the provisions of Federal law,
including without limitation housing developments that:
1. Provide significant facilities and services specifically designed to meet the

physical or social needs of older persons; and
2. Publish and adhere to policies and procedures that demonstrate an intent to
provide housing for persons 55 years of age or older to the extent allowed by
applicable State or Federal law.
The proposed use meets the definition, as the proposal is for affordable senior multi-
family units for rent, with ancillary services to be provided. According to the applicant,
the development will especially encourage tenants 55 years of age or older and comply
with all accessibility and adaptability requirements for veterans.
Conditional Use Regulations for this use include:
1. For any development that is over three stories in height:

a. The structures shall be compatible with the scale and massing of the types
of development allowed in the applicable zoning district and shall provide a
transition to less intensive development.
b. Rooflines and facade elements shall be articulated in order to break down
the apparent massing of the structures.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the proposed four-story building
is compatible with other types of development in the C-1 District, including, but
not limited to, offices, general retail, general personal services, restaurants
and other similar uses. The roofline of the proposed building will be articulated
to segment the mass of the structure.
2. The use shall be developed and operated only in connection with ground-level
nonresidential development. In the case of a multi-floor structure, the
apartments themselves must be located above the ground floor, but access
ways, entryways and community rooms may be located on the ground floor.
SS
SUP-67480 and SDR-67483 [PRJ-67445]
The proposed use does not meet this requirement, as no nonresidential

component is proposed, and residential units will be located at the ground
level in addition to community floor space.
3. The primary resident or guest entryway to the apartments must be

independent of ground floor commercial uses, and must be directly accessible
from and oriented to a street.
The proposed use will meets this requirement if Conditional Use Regulation 2
is waived by means of a Special Use Permit, as no commercial uses are
proposed.
4. The overall architecture of the front elevation shall highlight the difference in
uses through variations in volume and proportion, and shall be treated as a
cohesive whole through finishes and colors.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as similar exterior finishes and
accents are used on all sides of the proposed building. Portions of the front
elevation change in wall plane for variation.
5. For any development that, in accordance with LVMC 19.08.070, is allowed to

exceed the maximum lot coverage provisions set forth in that Section, all
landscape buffer requirements and minimum setback requirements for the C-1
District shall be met.
The proposed use does not meet this requirement. The building setbacks for
the C-1 District are met for a site having 51 percent lot coverage; however,
waivers are required to allow no landscape buffer along the west property line
and reduced width in the required perimeter landscape buffers along the north
and south property lines.
The proposed development would be located on an infill site north of Sahara Avenue
along an improved 60-foot wide private access easement. The site currently contains a
two-story senior citizens apartment building owned by a religious institution located to
the northwest adjacent to Baker Park. The existing building would be removed. A four-
story building is proposed containing 52 one-bedroom and 14 two-bedroom units. This
area is entirely zoned C-1 (Limited Commercial), which allows Senior Citizen
Apartments under certain conditional use regulations. The religious entity owns and
operates most, but not all of the facilities located along the private access easement.
Owing to the size of the building footprint, the development cannot meet onsite parking,
landscaping and trash facility requirements of Title 19, as well as two of the five
Conditional Use Regulations for the Senior Citizen Apartments use, requiring a Special
Use Permit. The use itself is compatible with the area; however, the project as
proposed to be constructed is not compatible with the site.
SS
SUP-67480 and SDR-67483 [PRJ-67445]
The proposed building meets required C-1 setbacks from property lines; however, it
would be located along the western edge of property, within a private access easement.
This would decrease the overall width of the private easement, which provides access
to several properties. A Condition of Approval has been added to require that the
applicant provide sufficient evidence to support their right to build within this easement
area. In addition, this does not allow for adequate landscape buffering at the front of the
development. The landscaping and walkways provided along the building entry would
encroach into the easement, reducing the travel lane by approximately eight feet. As
such, a Waiver to allow a zero-foot perimeter landscape buffer where eight feet is
required is necessary. Staff recommends denial of the Waiver, as sufficient buffering
from the frontage should be provided and the travel lane should remain uniform in width
along the entire private access easement. In addition, walkways along the north and
south sides of the building encroach into the required landscape buffer areas, reducing
the number of trees that can be provided for privacy, shading and screening.
As the building, landscaping and walkways will take up most of the space on the site,
onsite parking is not proposed. The 66 units proposed require at least 50 parking
spaces to be provided. At this time there is no recorded offsite parking agreement that
would provide the necessary spaces; however, arrangements have been made to
provide 50 spaces in the churchs parking lot located to the northwest. The site plan
indicates these spaces are in excess of the required parking for the church and could be
made available to the apartment residents and guests on a full-time basis. Access to
the parking lot is restricted but can be accessed from the private access easement. A
condition of approval will require the recordation of a perpetual offsite parking
agreement to satisfy the parking requirement for this use. If the agreement cannot be
executed, a variance to allow no parking spaces will be required. The site plan also
indicates that 29 additional parking spaces can be made available on church-owned
property opposite the proposed apartment building. However, these spaces cannot be
part of any perpetual parking agreement, as they are located entirely within the private
access easement and can be rightly used by anyone.
As the building and landscaping would be situated at the edge of the private access
easement and no other access to the property is proposed, no provision is made for
onsite trash disposal facilities. Instead, a trash enclosure would be provided opposite
the building on APN 162-03-801-138 within the easement. An Exception of Title
19.08.040 is required to allow the enclosure offsite at the frontage without adequate
screening such as landscaping. For a large residential building such as the one
proposed, trash facilities should be located at the side or rear of the site so as to be
convenient to residents and screened so as to maintain the aesthetics of the
development. Furthermore, while the enclosure would not impede the travel lanes of
the private access easement, the intent of the easement is for parking and access only,
not further private development. Staff therefore recommends denial of the Exception.
SS
SUP-67480 and SDR-67483 [PRJ-67445]
In order to provide site utilities and meet zoning and building code requirements for this
development, the existing lots where the senior citizen apartment building is proposed
must be combined through a separate administrative mapping action prior to the
issuance of building permits for construction.
The subject site is appropriate for the Senior Citizen Apartments use; however, the
development proposed would overbuild on this site, prompting several waivers and
exceptions and the need for an offsite parking agreement. Reduction in the size of the
building footprint would allow for conformance to Title 19 requirements. Staff therefore
recommends denial of the Special Use Permit and Site Development Plan Review, with
conditions if approved. If denied, the existing two-story senior citizen apartment building
would remain.

The proposed Senior Citizen Apartments use is appropriate for this area that
contains commercial uses such as offices and retail, with a Church/House of
Worship and public park abutting the site. However, too much of the site is
proposed to be taken up by the building footprint, which will not allow for adequate
onsite parking, landscaping and refuse facilities.
proposed.
The 0.79-acre commercially zoned site is suitable for the intensity of the Senior
Citizen Apartments use; however, the site cannot accommodate onsite parking,
the required landscape buffering from other uses and onsite trash facilities given
the size of the building footprint proposed.

SS
SUP-67480 and SDR-67483 [PRJ-67445]
The site is served by a 60-foot wide private access easement from Sahara
Avenue, itself a 140-foot wide Primary Arterial. These facilities are adequate in
size to meet the needs of the proposed Senior Citizen Apartments use. However,
the development would encroach into the private access easement, creating non-
uniform travel lanes.
Approval of a Special Use Permit for Senior Citizen Apartments on this site would
be consistent with Policy 2.2.2 of the Las Vegas 2020 Master Plan, which
encourages the development of senior citizen and assisted living housing as a
means of increasing residential density and meeting the needs of residents who
wish to age in place in their neighborhoods. However, the specific development of
senior citizen housing on this site does not allow for conformance with the citys
zoning code.
The proposed use does not meet Conditional Use Regulation 2 for the C-1
District, which requires Senior Citizen Apartments to contain ground level
nonresidential uses, or Conditional Use Regulation 5, which requires conformance
with building setback and perimeter landscape buffer standards for developments
exceeding 50 percent lot coverage. A Special Use Permit is therefore required,
which staff does not support.

The proposed development would overbuild on this site and encroach into a
private access easement, prompting several waivers and exceptions and the need
for an offsite parking agreement. The project as proposed is therefore not
compatible with the adjacent development.
SS
SUP-67480 and SDR-67483 [PRJ-67445]
The proposed development meets Objective 2.6 of the Las Vegas 2020 Master
Plan, which calls for improving the amount and quality of infill development on
vacant and underutilized lands within established areas of the city; and Objective
3.3, which is to ensure there is a diverse choice of affordable housing types that
meets the present and future needs of the citys population. However, onsite
parking, landscaping and trash disposal facilities and screening are not in
conformance with Title 19 requirements as a result of the size of the building
footprint.

Access to the site is from a 60-foot wide private access easement, which would be
compromised by encroachment of landscaping and a trash enclosure into the
easement area.
City;
The proposed building exterior would consist of painted stucco with slate accents,
decorative cornice and metal balcony railings. Landscape materials include a
variety of drought-tolerant deciduous and palm trees and shrubs. These materials
are compatible with nearby development and are appropriate for this area of the
City.

The submitted elevations indicate changes in materials, wall plane and roofline for
visual interest, thereby creating an orderly and aesthetically pleasing environment
that is compatible with other development in the area.
New development will be subject to building permit review and inspection, thereby
protecting the public health, safety and general welfare.

Plan Review applications. At the initial meeting it was noted that a
rear yard setback variance would be needed unless the building were
to be moved to the west. However, this would place the building within
10/26/16
the existing access easement. Staff asked the applicant to provide
information regarding the easement. An offsite parking agreement
with the church would be needed to account for parking, or a variance
for no spaces would be required. A DINA would be required, due to
the sites proximity to the Citys boundary with Clark County.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit to allow a Short-Term Residential Rental use
within the R-A (Ranch Acres) zoning district at 2701 Alta Drive.
ISSUES
x On September 13, 2016, the Department of Planning, Code Enforcement Division

opened a case (#170548) in response to a complaint received in regards to loud
events being held at 2701 Alta Drive at all hours of the day and night, Monday
through Sunday.
ANALYSIS
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 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.
Requirement 1: The operator must obtain a permit from the Business Services
Division to operate the use. The use must be operated by either the
property owner or a property manager who holds a permit to
engage in property management pursuant to NRS Chapter 645. For
a use to be operated by the property owner, a separate permit must
be obtained for each rental. For a use to be operated by a property
manager, the permit shall be an annual permit, renewable annually
at the discretion of the Division, subject to the provisions of
Condition Use Regulation 6. In each case the operator shall pay
such fee as the Division may establish for the permit. A copy of the
permit, including all conditions established or imposed pursuant to
Conditional Use Regulation 4, shall be posted in a conspicuous
place within the rented premises.
NE
SUP-68681 [PRJ-68471]
If this application is approved, the property owner will be required to

obtain a business license in order to operate as a Short-Term
Residential Rental.
Requirement 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. However, a permit issued
under Conditional Use Regulation 1 shall be deemed to take the
place of a license otherwise required by LVMC 6.46.020.
If this application is approved, the property owner will be required to

obtain a business license which has stringent regulations as
defined by Title 6. If the applicable fees and taxes are not paid in a
timely manner, the business license will be revoked.
Requirement 3: The use must comply with the Citys noise regulations as they apply
to residential uses.
As a condition of the business license, the proposed use must

comply with all applicable noise regulations or face possible fines
and/or license revocation.
Requirement 4: In connection with the issuance of a permit under Conditional Use

Regulation 1, the Business Services Division may establish
additional conditions on the use, including without limitation a time
limit on outdoor activities and a limit on the number of occupants
and guests that are on the premises at any one time. In addition, at
any time following issuance of the permit, the Division may impose
additional conditions on, or otherwise amend, the permit. The
permit may be revoked or suspended immediately for
noncompliance with these regulations or with applicable permit
conditions, at which time the use permitted as a conditional use
shall immediately cease.
If approved, and the use fails to comply with the Minimum Special
Use Permit Requirements set forth by Title 19.04, the licensee is
subject to all means of enforcement, including civil proceedings.
Requirement 5: 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.
NE
SUP-68681 [PRJ-68471]
Title 19.04 does not require additional parking beyond that which is
required for the principal use on the site, which in this case is a
single family residence. If approved, the use will be required to park
on-site and not obstruct traffic or access to other properties in the
area.
Requirement 6: The operator shall notify the Business Services Division of any
change in the operators telephone number and other contact
information. Any change in operator shall require the issuance of a
new permit.
The property owner will be responsible for providing contact

information as part of the business licensing process and keeping
the information current.
Requirement 7: The operator must be available at all times to respond to law

enforcement authorities and to concerns from neighborhood
residents, and to take remedial action in the event of
noncompliance with law or with permit conditions.
The property owner will be responsible for providing contact

information as part of the business licensing process.

The proposed land use is capable of being conducted in a manner that is

harmonious and compatible with the existing surrounding residential
neighborhood.

The subject site is a single family, detached dwelling suitable for a Short-Term
Residential Rental as defined by Title 19.04.

SUP-68681 [PRJ-68471]

Alta Drive is a 35-foot wide Major Collector as defined by the Master Plan of
Streets and highways which is adequate in size to accommodate a Short-Term
Residential Rental as defined by Title 19.04.
Approval of this request will compromise the public welfare as the applicant has
demonstrated noncompliance with the Conditions of Title 19.04.
As demonstrated by the complaint received and currently under investigation by

the Department of Planning, Code Enforcement division, the proposed use does
not meet Requirements one, two, three, five, and seven.
As evidenced by the inspections performed by the Department of Planning, Code

Enforcement Division, the subject site has been operating as a Short-Term Residential
Rental and a Banquet Hall without the applicable business licenses as required by Title
6 and Title 19 and are already in violation of Condition Numbers one, two, three, five,
and seven of this Special Use Permit application. For these reasons, staff is
recommending denial of this application.

Code Enforcement processed a complaint (#170548) for loud events
occurring at 2701 Alta Drive during the week and weekends. The case
currently remains open. The following is a history of inspections
performed by Code Enforcement:
09/13/16 x During an inspection performed on 09/13/16 staff observed a

party rental truck on-site picking up tables and chairs.
x On 09/15/16 while conducting research on the site, staff came
across a wedding announcement scheduled for the subject site

February 14, 2017 - Planning Commission Meeting
** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to construct a two-building, 34,782 square-foot shopping

center within the Downtown Centennial Plan area. Building 1 encompasses 18,442
square feet and would be located at the northeast corner of Stewart Avenue and Casino
Center Boulevard. Building 2 is 16,340 square feet and would be located at the
northwest corner of Stewart Avenue and 4th Street. Both are single story buildings with
plaza areas at the corners. A surface parking lot is proposed to the north of the existing
Mob Museum site adjacent to and between the two proposed buildings; however, no
improvements are proposed on the Mob Museum site itself.
ISSUES
x This project qualifies as a New Development as detailed in the Threshold

Requirements of the Downtown Centennial Plan, requiring a Site Development Plan
Review. The previous entitlements for a shopping center on this site have expired;
therefore, all new conditions of approval will apply to this action.
x Due to previously completed City-initiated streetscape improvements along Stewart
Avenue, a Covenant Running With Land agreement for future improvements to meet
Downtown Centennial Plan requirements adjacent to this site along Stewart Avenue
is not needed. As a result, no waivers are required or proposed.
x The two parcels will be required to be combined in order to allow site utilities across
the entire site. An access easement in favor of the Mob Museum site will be
required as part of this mapping action to accommodate the existing perimeter
parking along the southern edge of the site. A condition of approval will require a
separate mapping action.
ANALYSIS
The size and scope of this infill redevelopment is smaller than previous proposals. This
proposal eliminates any previously proposed improvements to the Mob Museum site.
The two Site Development Plan Review approvals that preceded this request (SDR-
48856 and SDR-54002) have both expired; therefore, all new conditions of approval will
be applied to this action.
SS
SDR-68470 [PRJ-68139]
The subject site is located within the Downtown Gateway sub-district of the Downtown
Centennial Plan Overlay District. Pursuant to Title 19.10.110, the standard parking,
landscaping, building height, lot coverage and setback requirements are not
automatically applied. Additional standards specific to the Downtown Gateway District
are required, including those for setbacks, streetscape, utilities, parking structures and
signage. The project is categorized under New Development in the Development
Thresholds chapter of the Downtown Centennial Plan, which requires a Site
Development Plan Review.
The Cultural Corridor Trail is designated by the Downtown Centennial Plan adjacent to
this site along Stewart Avenue and Casino Center Boulevard. Conformance to the
Downtown Gateway streetscape requirements will satisfy the requirements for the trail.
The proposed development is subject to and meets the requirements of the Airport
Overlay District.
The submitted plans indicate areas for future signage, which is not part of this review.
All proposed signage will require review and approval by the Downtown Design Review
Committee prior to the issuance of permits for signage. Any proposed signage
determined not to be in conformance with Title 19.08 standards will also require a
Variance and a public hearing. Off-premise signage, if proposed, will require a Special
Use Permit, subject to conformance with distance separation requirements.
The site plan depicts an orderly layout of buildings and surface parking. The two
buildings are situated at the two corners and oriented to the interior so that they face the
existing Mob Museum site. However, plaza areas with storefronts have been
incorporated at the corners to activate the street frontages. Together, the design
satisfies the land use urban form, pedestrian environment and Downtown character
design goals of the Downtown Centennial Plan. Sufficient surface parking is provided at
the rear of the property, which contains adequate landscaping to provide shade and to
separate large areas of asphalt. A low 30-inch wall with similar materials as the
buildings is provided along the parking lot facing Casino Center Boulevard in
conformance with Downtown Centennial Plan requirements. Service areas are not
explicitly shown on the site plan, but need to be provided to ensure that service
activities occur onsite and away from street frontages. A condition of approval
addresses this. In addition, site utilities must be located underground or away from the
street frontages within the building footprints to eliminate clutter and hazards.
Each building is designed as a one-story, 26-foot tall structure with changes in rooflines,
materials and wall planes to provide visual interest. Canopies and glass storefronts are
incorporated into the entryways to provide a pedestrian scale to the project. A brick
veneer covering portions of each elevation provides continuity of design between
buildings and is compatible with the brick incorporated into the adjacent historic Mob
Museum building, which they face.
SS
SDR-68470 [PRJ-68139]
Existing streetscape conditions in the Stewart Avenue right-of-way include a five-foot

sidewalk with a five-foot amenity zone containing trees planted along the frontage of
each parcel. The City has completed streetscape improvements along Stewart Avenue
and 4th Street that include street furniture and lighting; therefore, no additional
improvements from the developer are required to bring the site into conformance with
Downtown Centennial Plan streetscape requirements. Streetscape requirements along
Casino Center Boulevard will be met by the proposal, including provision of a 10-foot
sidewalk and five-foot amenity zone with 14 date palms within tree grates. The
streetscape along 4th Street will be enhanced with 14 date palms within tree grates.
The two parcels that make up this site will be required to be combined in order to allow
site utilities across the entire site. An access easement in favor of the Mob Museum
site will be required as part of this mapping action to accommodate the existing
perimeter parking along the southern edge of the site. A condition of approval will
require a separate mapping action prior to the issuance of building permits.
The proposed infill Shopping Center development is in conformance with Downtown

Centennial Plan requirements, is compatible with surrounding development and will
provide additional retail opportunities in Downtown. Staff therefore recommends
approval with conditions. If denied, permits cannot be issued for the development as
proposed.

The commercial uses proposed on this site are appropriate for the area, which
includes primarily large hotels, general retail storefront development and offices.
The proposed development is in general conformance to the Downtown

Centennial Plan. The proposed project fulfills Policy 1.3.2 of the Las Vegas 2020
Master Plan for reurbanization of the Downtown Area, specifically that new retail
and service commercial development be encouraged within Downtown to serve
the emerging housing market. In particular, this development should be weighted
SS
SDR-68470 [PRJ-68139]
towards restaurants, retail shops and service businesses intended to serve local
residents as well as the tourist market. Commercial uses are designated for this
site by the General Plan.

Access to the site would be from Stewart Avenue and 4th Street. Circulation is
two-way except for the 4th Street entrance. Vehicles may exit onto Casino Center
Boulevard or Stewart Avenue. The proposed layout restricts traffic movements to
the perimeter of the site and minimizes conflicts both within the site and with traffic
on the adjacent streets.
City;
The proposed stucco and brick veneer exteriors, metal canopies, and glass and
aluminum storefronts are similar to those used in other more modern Downtown
buildings and are appropriate for this project. The design and color of the brick
facades will match that of the adjacent Mob Museum for compatibility. Landscape
materials conform to the preferred plant list of the Downtown Centennial Plan.

The architectural features of the elevations create a pleasing environment that is

intended to focus on pedestrian traffic in the Downtown area. A brick veneer is
incorporated into each elevation that provides continuity in design with the Mob
Museum exterior.
The proposed development will be subject to permit review and inspection,

thereby ensuring the publics health, safety and welfare.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing to construct a 28,650 square foot wholesale showroom

facility on the two lots currently addressed as 1901 and 1907 Western Avenue. The
proposed building requires a Site Development Plan Review for the new construction,
and waivers to the Downtown Centennial Plans standards for streetscapes and service
area screening.
ISSUES
x The subject site is currently divided into two lots that must be combined before this
proposal could be constructed. A parcel map (PM-67713) that would combine the
parcels was released for recordation on 02/13/17. A condition of approval would
require recordation before building permits.
x The proposed building fails to meet the Downtown Centennial Plan requirements for
parking screening, streetscape standards, and loading dock location. Waivers have
been requested for each of those requirements as part of this Site Development
Plan Review. Staff supports the requests for screening and streetscape waivers, but
only for a portion of the site. Staff does not support the loading dock location
request.
x The access on the south end of the site is shared with the adjacent property. To
guarantee that this access point will continue to serve the property and provide
appropriate interior circulation, a cross access easement will need to be documented
before building permits are issued for the site.
x The internal circulation of the site and the location of the truck dock requires semi-
tractor/trailers to engage the loading dock by pulling into the Western Avenue right of
way. Western Avenue has on-street parking parallel to the curb, but the trucks may
still enter into the north bound lane and will block the sidewalk completely at times.
This will create a life, health and safety issue, and staff does not support the request.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is proposing to construct a 28,650 square foot building that will serve as a
wholesale showroom facility. The site is zoned M (Industrial) and the proposed use is a
permitted use in that zoning district. The site is currently made up of two individual lots
that will be combined for this project. A parcel map (PMP-67713) has been
administratively approved and a condition of approval will require that it be recorded
prior to the issuance of building permits for this project.
PB
SDR-68652 [PRJ-68650]
The building itself is proposed to be constructed mainly of concrete wall panels, with
significant fenestration on the Western Avenue frontage, consistent faade articulation,
a prominent cornice feature, and a cohesive design and color scheme on all four sides
of the structure. The architectural guidelines of both Title 19 and the Downtown
Centennial Plan are met with the proposed elevations.
The landscaping provided is concentrated on the Western Avenue frontage in a 15-foot

wide landscape buffer that includes trees spaced 20 foot on center with ground cover in
excess of four shrubs per tree. The Downtown Centennial Plan also requires one tree
for every six parking spaces be placed in a parking lot landscape island or the
perimeter. With 13 spaces in front of the building, staff is recommending a condition
that three additional trees be planted in either the parking lot fingers on the western
most parking row or on the north property line near the trash enclosure.
While the landscape materials and buffer size conform to the requirements of Title 19,
the streetscape requirements of the Downtown Centennial Plan are more restrictive.
Western Avenue requires a 5-foot wide landscape buffer at back of curb and a 10-foot
wide landscape sidewalk. The applicant is requesting a waiver to this requirement to
allow the proposed configuration as well as to eliminate the required ornamental iron
fence that serves as screening for parking lots adjacent to the right of way. The
applicants justification letter dated 02/16/17 explains that there is not another property
in the surrounding area that provides the 10-foot sidewalk or the ornamental iron fence.
The existing condition of the site is asphaltic pavement all the way to the back of curb,
and while the property to the north has sidewalk at back of curb, the property to the
south provides a landscape planter at back of curb with the pavement of its parking lot
serving as the only walkway. The dual driveway (including a shared driveway on the
south end of the site) would allow this site to provide the full Downtown Centennial Plan
streetscape improvements in between the proposed driveways while allowing sensitive
transitions to the existing conditions to the north and south of the proposed driveways.
Staff supports this waiver, but only for the portion of the site north of the northern most
driveway for transition purposes.
In addition to the streetscape waiver, the applicant has also requested a waiver of the
Downtown Centennial Plans requirement that the loading dock not be on the property
frontage. The loading doors for this facility have been designed on the Western Avenue
faade and screening alone does not alleviate the condition. The applicants
justification letter dated 02/16/17 explains that the loading bays are only minimally used,
rarely have trucks docked at them, and are only opened otherwise for short periods to
allow customer loading. In addition to the lack of conformance with the Downtown
Centennial Plan standards, the loading dock locations create some delivery vehicle
circulation issues which would necessitate semi-tractor/trailers using a portion of the
Western Avenue right of way in order to engage the loading dock. This may cause an
obstruction to the northbound traffic lane, even though there is parking on-street,
PB
SDR-68652 [PRJ-68650]
parallel to the curb, and will completely block pedestrian traffic on the sidewalk. A
drawing was submitted that demonstrates this circulation movement. Staff is not
supporting this waiver request as there is a life, health and safety issue involved.
Staff is recommending denial of the project, due to the number of waivers requested
from the Downtown Centennial Plan. Conditions of approval have been included that
minimize the waiver for streetscape improvements to only the northern most portion of
the site and for the addition of parking lot trees.

The proposed warehouse facility is a permitted use within the M (Industrial) zoning
district, and the surrounding neighborhood is similarly zoned. The Downtown
Centennial Plan also designates this property as part of the Industrial Corridor
District. Therefore, the use and the development is compatible with adjacent
development and development in the area.
The general plan guides this site and the surrounding area for LI/R (Light
Industrial / Research) and the proposed facility fits as a use under that
designation. The Industrial Corridor District of the Downtown Centennial Plan also
designates this property for industrial development. However, the waivers that
have been requested to the streetscape, parking screening and service area
standards indicate that the project is not in conformance with city standards.

The location of the loading dock at the front of the building has created an internal
site circulation that will not allow large trucks to engage the dock without entering
the first three feet of the Western Avenue right of way. As such, this could create
a negative impact on Western Avenue and neighborhood traffic.
PB
SDR-68652 [PRJ-68650]
City;
The building materials are consistent with industrial development and the
landscape materials are drought tolerant and appropriate for this area of the city.

The building elevations include faade articulation, a prominent cornice, and a

cohesive design that provide a desirable and aesthetically pleasing development
that is harmonious and compatible with the future development of this area of the
city.
The proposed project will be required to obtain building permits and be inspected
during construction to assure that all necessary public safety measures are
required and maintained.

A Parcel Map (PMP-67713) was approved administratively and the
01/30/17
mylar was released on 02/13/17 for recordation.

** PROPOSED AMENDMENT(S) **
1. Section A.4 of the Town Center Development Standards Manual is hereby amended
to read as follows:
B. Modification of the Land Use Map
Any request by or on behalf of the property owner, or any proposal by the City, to
modify a land use district as depicted on Map 4 Town Center Land Use, shall be filed
with the Department in accordance with the procedures and standards applicable to a
rezoning application as set forth in LVMC 19.16.090. The MC-TC (Montecito) land
use designation shall be limited to the Montecito boundaries as defined on Map Four
(Town Center Land Use). The boundaries of the MC-TC (Montecito-Town Center)
district shall not be expanded, and requests to modify a land use district to MC-TC
(Montecito) outside the established boundaries are not permitted.
2. Section A.5 of the Town Center Development Standards Manual is hereby amended
by adding the following entry in the appropriate location:
L. Montecito (MC-TC):
The Montecito District is intended to be a multi-use activity center focused on

walkability and the opportunity for residents to have access to a variety of
destinations. Montecito is the most appropriate area within Centennial Hills for large
scale mixed-use and multi-use developments, and is envisioned as having a
balanced mix of office, retail, residential and entertainment uses. Within this district
there are no rigid design requirements, but instead the focus is on the interaction
between the public and private realm, ease of pedestrian circulation, and abundance
of open space. The central location of Montecito within Town Center supports
medium to high density and intensity of diverse uses, which are encouraged in order
to create a vibrant neighborhood. The MC-TC (Montecito) land use designation shall
be limited to the Montecito boundaries as defined on Map Four (Town Center Land
Use). The boundaries of the MC-TC (Montecito-Town Center) district shall not be
expanded, and requests to modify a land use district to MC-TC (Montecito) outside
the established boundaries are not permitted.
3. Section A.5 of the Manual is amended by removing Section A.5.6 and its content.
4. Section B.1 of the Manual is hereby amended to read as follows:
This chapter indicates which uses are permitted in each of the eleven (11) twelve (12)
Land Use Districts. The Permitted Uses Matrix (Table 1) identifies those uses which
are permitted by right, conditionally permitted and those which require approval by
Special Use Permit.
LM
TXT-68323
Proposed Amendments Page Two
5. Section B.2.D of the Town Center Development Standards Manual is hereby

amended to read as follows:
D. Special Use Permits (S):
Certain uses may be permitted in the designated Land Use district only after
obtaining a Special Use Permit in accordance with LVMC 19.16.110 and compliance
with specific conditions. These conditions are listed following the Permitted Use
Matrix in Section B.4 of these standards, labeled Special Use Permits.
Uses within the Montecito (MC-TC) land use district are exempt from the conditions
set forth in this Chapter. However, the Las Vegas City Council may consider that
certain conditions shall be met as part of its deliberation and approval of any
requests.
6. The Permitted Uses Table 1, as found at the end of Section B.2 of the Town Center
Development Standards Manual, is hereby amended by inserting a new column for
the MC-TC district, showing the land use treatment within that district of the various
uses identified in the Town Center Development Standards Manual. The entries for
the new column for the MC-TC district (MC, as referred to in the table), are indicated

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This Text Amendment to the Town Center Development Standards Manual removes all
references to the expiring Montecito Town Center Development Agreement, and
introduces a new Town Center Land Use District, the Montecito (MC-TC) Land Use, to
regulate development previously allowed under the Montecito Development Agreement
regulatory framework.
ANALYSIS
In April 2002, the City Council adopted the Montecito Town Center Development
Agreement, an agreement between the City of Las Vegas and Montecito Town Center
LLC. The agreement identifies development and responsibilities within Montecito Town
Center. The agreement established the Montecito Town Center Land Use and Design
Standards Appendix to govern all development within Montecito Town Center.
Approximately 202 acres of land within the Town Center plan area are currently
designated as Main Street Mixed-Use (MS-TC) and Urban Center Mixed-Use (UC-TC),
and regulated by the Montecito Mixed Use Commercial Overlay, instated by the
Montecito Town Center Development Agreement and depicted in Map 4 (Town Center
Land Use) of the Town Center Development Standards Manual. Per the provisions
identified in Section 12.1 of the Montecito Town Center Development Agreement, the
agreement will expire on April 10th 2017. In order to maintain the current rights of
property owners and ensure desired future development for the area, this proposed
amendment will create a Montecito (MC-TC) Land Use District within the Town Center
Plan area to provide the regulatory framework that is meant to effectively replace the
expiring Montecito Town Center Development Agreement.
The amendment will remove all references to the Montecito Town Center Development
Agreement, simplify the reference to guidelines and standards applicable to the
Montecito area by utilizing the format and updated language that is currently valid for all
the other land use districts present in the Town Center Plan area, consolidate all
regulations pertaining to the Town Center Plan area within one single document, and
maintain the Timberlake buffer area to ensure continued protection for residents
adjacent to commercially designated parcels.
After considering several alternatives, Staff recommends this amendment to the Town
Center Development Standards Manual for the following reasons:
LM
TXT-68323
1. The new Montecito (MC-TC) Land Use has been crafted on the basis of the
regulation, standards, and guidelines set forth in the Montecito Development
Agreement, thus reflects the vision that was initially put forth for the Plan area
2. The amendment updates many definitions and permitted uses that are
referenced in the Montecito Town Center Development Agreement, yet have
become outdated over time
3. Many of the specific standards and regulations set forth in the Montecito
Town Center Development Agreement, such as the sections concerning
signage, parking, setbacks, streets, streetscapes, lighting, sidewalk hierarchy,
walls, and screens, already exist in the Town Center Development Standards
Manual
4. The incorporation of the area defined as Montecito Mixed-Use Commercial
Overlay as a Land Use designation will standardize it with all other Land Use
districts existing in Town Center, and simplifies the Plan area regulatory
framework by reducing the number of separate sources.
5. The amount of undeveloped parcels is relatively low, with approximately 146
acres (73%) that have already been developed and approximately 56 (27%)
undeveloped acres.
FINDINGS (TXT-68323)
The proposed text amendment is intended to create a Montecito (MC-TC) Land Use
District within the Town Center Plan area to replace the expiring Montecito
Development Agreement. The proposed Montecito (MC-TC) Land Use incorporates the
uses and standards contained in the Montecito Town Center Development Agreement,
which have been adapted to the Town Center Development Standards Manual format.
The Timberlake buffer area has been maintained to ensure continued protections for
residents adjacent to commercially designated parcels. This amendment preserves the
current rights of property owners while offering continued protection to adjacent
residential development. Staff recommends approval of the request.

The City Council adopted the Town Center Development Standards
Manual to implement the Town Center Master Plan as a guide for
development of the Town Center plan area. Through its maps and text,
11/7/2001
it incorporates regulations and development standards affecting the
use of land within the Plan area, which is located within the Centennial
Hills Sector Plan boundaries.
The City Council adopted Ordinance #5464, which adopted the
4/3/2002
Montecito Town Center Development Agreement.
The City Council adopted Ordinance #5860, which adopted a revised
Town Center Development Standards Manual to provide for greater
10/04/2006 consistency with LVMC Title 19. The Planning Commission and staff
recommended approval of the Text Amendment (TXT-13863) which
was heard at the City Council as Bill Number 2006-53.
The Planning Commission voted (6-0) to hold this item (TXT-68323) in
02/14/17 abeyance to the 03/14/17 Planning Commission meeting at the
request of City staff.
City Staff invited all vacant parcels property owners to a Q&A session
3/6/2017 on the proposed Text Amendment. No property owners or legal
representatives attended.

2. Title 19.12.070 is hereby amended by amending the description for the Night
Club use as follows:
Description:
An indoor or outdoor drinking, dancing, or entertainment establishment that
does its primary business after dark, has a dance floor or open area free of
tables and chairs that would allow dancing or assembly occupancies, and
sound equipment to allow live or recorded music played for the purpose of
dancing (whether or not dancing actually occurs). Onsite consumption of
alcoholic beverages is typical, but not universal, and a bar area may or may not
be present. A fee for admittance is often but not always, required. A promotor
may be contracted to provide entertainment. The sale of prepared food, if any
is accessory to the primary use. This term does not include an erotic dance
establishment as licensed under LVMC 6.35 or an establishment that qualifies
as a Teen Dance Center.
A. An establishment, other than a teen dance center, where its primary

operations are that of preparing and serving alcoholic beverages for
immediate on-premises consumption and the provision of live
entertainment, generally operated primarily in the late evening/early morning
hours. An establishment shall be considered a nightclub if it exhibits the
following characteristics;
1. Live entertainment is provided in an area that exceeds fifty square feet,
and the following spaces shall be included in the calculation of such
area: stage space, disc jockey space, dance floor(s), and any space
primarily dedicated to the viewing of the live entertainment provided by
the licensee; and
2. Its primary operating hours are generally between the hours of nine p.m.
and five a.m. the following day, or afterhours between four a.m. and 10
a.m on the same day.
SG
TXT-69157
Proposed Amendment Page Two
B. For purposes of this description, live entertainment includes live music (with
or without dancing), recorded or digital music played for patrons by a live
disc jockey or electronic device, or karaoke entertainment or other stage
shows, such as a magician, comedian other similar type of performance
artist.

1. Because the primary operations of a nightclub are that of preparing and
serving alcoholic beverages for immediate on-premises consumption and
the provision of live entertainment, the City Council declares that the public
health, safety and general welfare of the City are best promoted and
protected by generally requiring a minimum separation between a nightclub
and other uses that should be protected from the impacts associated with a
nightclub. Therefore, except as otherwise provided below, no nightclub may
be located within 1500 feet of a church, synagogue, school, child care
facility licensed for more than 12 children or City park.
2. A person that desires to operate a nightclub shall obtain both a nightclub
land use entitlement as well as any necessary land use entitlement for the
service of alcohol for on-premises consumption. A person lawfully operating
a nightclub as defined by this section and LVMC 6.39, prior to December 1,
2014, is not required to obtain a special use permit for the continued
operation of such nightclub use. Real property entitled for a nightclub
pursuant to this Code shall have no specific spacing requirements between
other nightclubs. However, as the nightclub entitlement is a separate and
distinct from any land use entitlement permitting the service of alcohol for
on-premises consumption, this provision shall not act to waive or otherwise
diminish the specific spacing requirements between uses entitled for the
service of alcohol for on-premises consumption.
3. The distance separation referred to in Requirement 1, above, and
Requirement 8, below, shall be measured with reference to the shortest
distance between two property lines, one being the property line of the
proposed nightclub which is closest to the existing use which the
measurement pertains, and the other being the property line of that existing
use which is closest to the proposed nightclub. The distance shall be
measured in a straight line without regard to intervening obstacles.
4. For the purpose of Requirement 2 3, and for that purpose only;
interest parcel that has been created by an approved and recorded
parcel map or subdivision map, and does not include the property line of
a leasehold parcel; and
b. The property line of a nightclub refers to;
SG
TXT-69157
Proposed Amendment Page Three

record of survey or legal description, if;
A. Using the property line of that parcel for the purpose of measuring
the distance separation referred to in Requirement 1 would qualify
the parcel under the distance separation requirement;
B. The proposed nightclub will have direct access (both ingress and
egress) from a street having a minimum right-of-way width of 100
feet. The required access may be shared with a larger development
but must be located within the property lines of the parcel on which
the proposed nightclub will be located;
including the owner of agreement, satisfactory to the City Attorney,
that provides for perpetual, reciprocal cross-access, ingress and
egress throughout the commercial subdivision.
5. The distance separation requirement set forth in Requirement 1 does not
apply to 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.
6. The use shall conform to, and is subject to, the provisions of LVMC Chapter
6.50.
7. No night club may be located within 500 feet of any single-family dwelling.
This distance separation requirement shall not apply to the following:
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.
b. A night club located within the boundaries of the Pedestrian Mall as
defined by LVMC Title 11.68.
c. A night club located within the boundary of the Downtown Entertainment
Overlay District.
8. Alcohol service is only permitted in conjunction with the following Title 6
alcoholic beverage licenses: Beer and Wine Room, Tavern, Tavern-Limited,
General On-Sale and Urban Lounge.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request to amend LVMC Title 19.12.010 Table 2, 19.12.070 and 19.18.020 for
the Night Club use.
ANALYSIS
This amendment would redefine the Night Club use to eliminate the minimum space and
hours of operation requirements used to determine whether an establishment is a night
club or not. These are being eliminated as they have presented issues with licensing and
enforcement regarding establishments that have met the bare minimums to be a night
club, but are not truly operated as night clubs. For instance, a tavern that hosts karaoke
on weekends may meet the current definition of a night club because of their hours of
operation and the fact that the disc jockey and karaoke singer(s) occupied 50 square feet
of floor space.
In addition to redefining the use, this amendment would allow a night club to be
established as a conditional use in the CM (Commercial-Industrial) and M (Industrial)
zoning districts as long as the use met all distance separation requirements. These zoning
districts contain the most intense commercial uses allowed in Title 19, and allowing night
clubs under specific conditions will not adversely affect the surrounding adjacent uses.
This amendment also provides for certain exemptions to the distance separation
requirement from a single family residence. These include a non-restricted gaming
establishment/resort hotel containing 200 or more guest rooms and night clubs that are
located within either the Pedestrian Mall (i.e. Fremont Street Experience) or the Downtown
Entertainment Overlay District (i.e. Fremont East District). non-restricted gaming
establishments/resort hotels with 200 or more guest rooms can mitigate the secondary
negative effects of a night club, such as queuing lines, noise and unruly behavior, by
containing them within the larger establishment. This exemption is in line with similar
requirements for a Liquor Establishment, Tavern use. Both the Pedestrian Mall and the
Downtown Entertainment Overlay District are intended to be hubs for entertainment
venues, including night clubs.
Finally, the General On-Sale license has been added as an allowable business license
type in conjunction with a night club establishment. Adding the General On-Sale license
would allow a night club to be established within a larger entertainment venue, such as a
stadium or amusement park.
