Painted Hills Preliminary Plat and PRD
Meeting of April 12, 2018
Draft Minutes for Review
Attendees: Nathan Smith, Todd Whipple, Cary Driskell, Henry Allen, Chad Riggs, Lori Barlow,
Deanna Horton, on the phone Read Stapleton, Ken Harper.
1. Current status of project proposal — project of record and expected revision.
• Confirmation of CLOMR-F alternative in lieu of CLOMR.
Todd stated they are currently working toward being able to supply a complete CLOMR-
F submittal with hydraulics and hydrology in the next month or so. Due to the lack of a
levee/ditch they are going to increase the compensatory flows by 25 cfs. Due to the lack
of maintenance in the creek south of the project and the breach, they are going to use the
higher volume of flows and have moved the number up to 109 sfx. He said last week
they had been working on compensatory storage solutions. WCE is working in
conjunction with West Consultants. West will integrate the engineering performed by
WCE into a CLOMR-F application. This may be ready in about a month. There have
been delays due to unavailability of personnel with West Consultants. The applicant is
definitely committed to a CLOMR-F based revision of the proposal.
• Application materials to be revised, including SEPA checklist
The CLOMR-F based proposal will result in a revision to the current SEPA checklist.
The revision may possibly be an addendum to the existing checklist, but the City would
encourage a revised new checklist. The City will review the revised checklist and make
a determination of whether or not this would change the DS determination. Because the
main features of the proposal will not be altered other than as necessary to support the
CLOMR-F aspect, it is unlikely that the DS determination will change. The existing
scope of the DS is also probably adequate to encompass the CLOMR-F proposal, with no
new formal scoping hearing likely. But this cannot be foreclosed as a possibility until the
additional information is provided and reviewed by the City. After this is considered and
reviewed, the EIS process will move forward. The goal of the process is to vet options
for mitigating the impacts.
• Suspension of City review and DEIS of (former) CLOMR-based version of proposal,
The City will continue to wait for new submittals from WEC. The City is not engaged on
any review of the current application of record because there has been no DEIS supplied
yet, and because the applicant has indicated that the current application will be
superseded and replaced in the near future as discussed in this meeting and in earlier
correspondence.
2. Processing revised project application materials:
The City wants to make sure it can clearly track the changes in the project. Ken Harper noted
that many times a project's application materials can get complicated by revisions and updates,
which makes it difficult to track the changes and can lead to confusion for the reviewing agency
and for the public. There has already been one formal revision of the proposal from 2016. With
this new revision to the project the City would like to try and keep the relevant application
materials as clear as possible.
The new submittals would not necessarily have to take the form of a formal new application with
filing fee, but would be best if the materials are a complete self-contained revised application,
with minimal incorporation by reference of former materials. Having to reference back and forth
between older materials and revised materials can be difficult to accurately do.
Nathan Smith agreed, and would try to submit a narrative outlining what in the project was being
revised. This will also assist in confirming that the newly revised application complies with
current applicable City policies. The goal would be a new completely self-contained revision.
Although no City code specifies that a formal new notice of application would be required for
revisions to an existing project application, the City will want to provide public notice of the
revised proposal. The applicant has no problem with public notice. All of our documents for
this proposal are posted to the City's website, and it should be easy for a member of the public to
read and note what is different about the new documents and revised information. The City
should expect these materials by mid-May.
Todd mentioned they had a cultural resource survey conducted and it had already been submitted
to DAHP. This will be added to the DEIS as one of the appendices. There is no particular role
for the City to undertake in relation to the cultural resource survey as a standalone document at
this time.
