** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting Extensions of Time for an approved Variance (VAR-55721)
to allow 119 onsite parking spaces where 338 spaces are required and an approved
Site Development Plan Review (SDR-55723) for a proposed 66,192 square-foot
Church/House of Worship and ancillary school on 5.07 acres generally located at the
southwest corner of Cliff Shadows Parkway and Clark County 215. The approved Site
Development Plan Review includes waivers of perimeter wall height and landscape
buffers.
ANALYSIS
This is the first Extension of Time request for the approved Variance (VAR-55721) and
Site Development Plan Review (SDR-55723). A related Extension of Time of an
approved Petition to Vacate (VAC-55722) U.S. Government Patent Easements in
conflict with the church development was reviewed administratively by Department of
Planning staff. The original entitlements for the church expired in 2014 and were then
reinstated as a new submittal later that year. There have been no permits issued and
no development activity on this site; however, construction work has begun on
Reverence Parkway (formerly Desert Hope Drive) to the south in conjunction with the
Reverence master planned development in Summerlin. According to the applicant,
engineering for Reverence Parkway adjacent to the church development could not
resume until the Reverence master planned development commenced, which delayed
progress on design and financial planning for this project. In addition to the new road, a
new commercial building is planned to the north of the church site, and a four-story, 42unit multi-family condominium development is proposed north of the equestrian
trailhead. These areas of infill development will have some impact to traffic in the area
but the Church/House of Worship will remain compatible with the other uses in the
surrounding area.
Because the overall site is an amalgamation of parcels administered by different entities
and some areas of the site are unusable, not all of the church parking was proposed on
parcels owned by the applicant. Nearly all of the required parking will still be provided
on the overall site.

EOT-67225 and EOT-67226 [PRJ-66961]

Staff Report Page Two
FINDINGS (EOT-67225)
None of the developmental changes in the area impact the provision of parking for the
church development. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the requested Extension
of Time with conditions.
FINDINGS (EOT-67226)
One new commercial building has been approved north of the church site across Cliff
Shadows parkway and a multi-family residential (condominium) development has been
proposed north of the equestrian trailhead. These developments do not directly affect
the compatibility of the Church/House of Worship use in relation to the surrounding
area. Staff therefore recommends approval of the requested Extension of Time with
conditions.

DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
All development within the Lone Mountain West Master Plan area is subject to the
requirements of the Lone Mountain West Master Plan. The Lone Mountain West
Master Plan does not establish design standards for buildings located within the PF
(Public Facilities) land use designation; therefore, the development standards for this
development shall use the following criteria: the development standards shall be
established by the PF (Public Facilities) Lone Mountain West Special Land Use
Designation and any corresponding Site Development Plan Review approval under Title
19.16.100.
The site also falls within the Hillside Development Overlay District, which is subject to
the regulations contained in Title 19.10.140. The standards shall be designed to ensure
compatibility of the development with existing and planned development in the
surrounding area.
Pursuant to the above, the proposed landscaping, parking, setbacks, and
maximum building heights for this project are defined below. Any future
development will require review for determination of appropriate development
standards.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for the approval of a Tentative Map for a one-lot commercial subdivision
on a 3.53 acre site at the southwest corner Craig Road and US 95.
ISSUES
All grading and drainage improvements have been completed.

The site is partially built out with a pawn shop, restaurant, retail building, and an
undeveloped building pad. All associated parking areas and drive isles have been
constructed.
ANALYSIS
There is an existing pawn shop, restaurant and retail building. The retail building is
located on an uncompleted pad site. There is an existing parking lot with associated
drive isles and landscaping. All existing structures on the site meet the Title 19
requirements for the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district. Access to the site is
provided from a shared driveway from Craig Road. All grading and drainage
improvements have been completed. The north/south and east/west cross sections
show a developed and graded site, and no changes are proposed.
The map meets and complies with the Title 19 and NRS 278 requirements for a
Tentative Map; therefore, staff recommends approval with conditions. If denied, the
existing parcel would remain.
FINDINGS (TMP-64433)
All Title 19 zoning and NRS 278 technical requirements regarding tentative maps have
been satisfied; therefore, staff recommends approval with conditions.

ANALYSIS
The block-wide area is fully developed with buildings and surface parking, and faces the
Fremont Street Experience. The site will be redeveloped and expanded through a
future independently submitted Site Development Plan Review. A petition to vacate
(VAC-66477) two alleyways in conflict with the development was approved by the City
Council on 11/16/16. The Order of Vacation would need to record prior to recordation of
a Final Map over this site. No waivers or variances are needed or are being filed in
conjunction with this map request. No walls or fences currently exist or are proposed on
the perimeter of the site.
The area covering this site contains non-restricted gaming rights that the applicant
wishes to preserve despite the consolidation of parcels through this map process. A
condition of approval will require gaming witness lines to be clearly indicated on the final
map of this area as evidence of the non-restricted gaming rights.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant has proposed to expand an existing legal, nonconforming Church/House
of Worship use and building on three lots located at 903 and 907 West Adams Avenue,
and 906 West Washington Avenue.
ISSUES
When a legal, nonconforming use and building expands more than 50 percent, the
applicable land entitlements are required for the expansion.
The existing legal nonconforming Church/House of Worship is expanding the use by
approximately 80 percent requiring a Special Use Permit. Staff is recommending
approval of this request.
The existing legal, nonconforming building is expanding by approximately 80 percent
requiring a Site Development Plan Review. Staff is recommending approval of this
request.
The existing side setback of the legal, nonconforming building is 4.5 feet, requiring a
Variance to expand the legal, nonconforming building by approximately 80 percent
and match the existing 4.5-foot side setback. Staff is recommending approval of this
request.
ANALYSIS
Site Development Plan Review (SDR-66141)
The applicant has proposed a 1,073 square-foot addition to an existing 1,335 squarefoot Church/House of Worship located at 907 West Adams Avenue. The building
expansion will occur to the northern faade of the existing building, with the remaining
adjacent lots located at 903 West Adams Avenue and 906 West Washington Avenue
transforming into a parking lot facility for the Church/House of Worship.
The proposed floor plan includes a vestibule, mens and womens restrooms, storage,
and a sound room. To the rear of the church is an office and breakroom for staff. The
expanded sanctuary provides parishioners 1,300 square feet of non-fixed seating.
NE

According to the Las Vegas Valley Water District (LVVWD), the subject properties are
currently served by LVVWD but the domestic services 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
retrofit. In addition, parcel lot consolidation will be required prior to plan approval.
In a report provided to staff by the Department of Public Works Traffic Division, this
project will add approximately ten (10) trips per day on Washington Avenue, Adams
Street, H Street, and I Street. Currently, Washington Avenue is at approximately 33
percent of capacity, Adams is at approximately five (5) percent of capacity, and H Street
is at approximately 23 percent of capacity. With the addition of this project, these
capacities are expected to remain unchanged. Counts are currently not available for I
Street, but it is believed to also be under capacity. Based on peak hour use, this
development will add into the area roughly 13 additional cars, or about two every nine
minutes.
Variance (VAR-66138)
The existing Church/House of Worship located at 907 West Adams Avenue was
constructed in 1959 with a side setback of 4.5 feet. In order to maintain a harmonious
building faade along the western edge of the building, the applicant has requested a
Variance to allow for the continuation of this 4.5-foot side setback for the Church/House
of Worship 1,073 square-foot building expansion. Although the applicant has proposed
to expand the structure to the north, the expansion maintains the minimum front yard
setback for the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning district of 20 feet by providing a
21-foot front setback. Staff supports this request as it aides in the preservation of the
residential nature of the neighborhood in accordance with the West Las Vegas Plan.
Special Use Permit (SUP-66140)
The existing legal, nonconforming Church/House of Worship is located within the R-1
(Single Family Residential) zoning district. In accordance with Title 19.14, when a legal,
nonconforming use is expanded more than 50 percent, the use must conform to the
provisions of Title 19. Title 19.12 requires a Church/House of Worship to obtain a
Special Use Permit when located within the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning
district. Since the proposed Church/House of Worship land use expansion is
approximately 80 percent of the existing Church/House of Worship land use, the
applicant has requested a Special Use Permit to bring the subject site into compliance
with Title 19. Staff is recommending approval of this request.
NE

The Church/House of Worship use is defined as any building used for religious worship
services, religious education and fellowship activities and programs of a religious
organization. This use includes the use of the building and premises for other related
activities, such as child care facilities, formal educational programs, preschool classes
and recreational activities, but only when those activities are ancillary to the religious
use and only after those uses have been approved by means of a use review or other
procedure under LVMC Chapter 19.16. This use does not include any class of child
care center, general education classroom or facility, thrift shop, homeless shelter or
commercial activity.
The Minimum Special Use Permit Requirements for this use include:
1. Requirement 1
The Special Use Permit approval may include such activities as religious
services, religious instruction, church club activities and similar activities.
The applicant has applied for a Special Use Permit to allow for the expansion of
an existing legal, nonconforming Church/House of Worship in the R-1 (Single
Family Residential) zoning district that currently offers religious services on
Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday.
2. Requirement 2
The Special Use Permit approval may also include accessory functions, such as
child care facilities, formal educational programs, preschool classes and similar
related activities, if:
a. The uses are specifically proposed in the application; and
b. The Director finds that each such use is ancillary to the primary use.
Child care facilities, formal educational programs, preschool classes and similar
related activities were not applied for as part of this Special Use Permit
application.
3. Requirement 3
Following approval of a Special Use Permit, if any additional uses not specifically
covered by that Special Use Permit are proposed, an additional public hearing
process shall be required to add the uses.
For future reference.
NE

1. Requirement 4
In residential districts, related uses such as thrift shops, homeless shelters and
other similar activities may not be conducted and are not eligible for approval as
part of a Special Use Permit. Such uses may be conducted only in the zoning
districts in which such uses are permitted as primary uses, and must receive
specific approval to operate.
The subject site is zoned R-1 (Single Family Residential), making the subject site
ineligible for uses such as thrift shops, homeless shelters and other similar
activities. A Condition of Approval has been added to ensure compliance.
2. Requirement 5
Churches on sites larger than 5 acres shall not be permitted in the U District or a
district with an R prefix.
Requirement does not apply to this application as the subject site is 0.54 acres.
The existing legal, nonconforming Church/House of Worship has met the minimum
Special Use Permit requirements set forth by Title 19.12 and staff is recommending
approval of this request.
FINDINGS (VAR-66138)
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:
1.
2.
3.
Permit a use in a zoning district in which the use is not allowed;

Vary any minimum spacing requirement between uses;
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
NE

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.
Evidence of a unique and extraordinary circumstance has been presented, in that the
subject building built in 1959 was constructed with only a 4.5-foot side yard setback. In
order to maintain a harmonious side building elevation the applicant has proposed to
maintain the 4.5-foot side setback with the new building addition considering the
addition increases the building floor area by 1,073 square feet, approximately 80
percent of the existing floor area. The hardship imposed by the sites existing building
characteristics is within the realm of NRS Chapter 278 for granting Variances and staff
supports this request.
FINDINGS (SUP-66140)
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 expansion of a legal, nonconforming Church/House of Worship use
includes the construction and expansion of a parking area that will provide paved,
striped, orderly vehicle parking that will promote the continued harmonious and
compatible existence of the Church/House of Worship within the existing
surrounding residential neighborhood.
2.
The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of land use
proposed.
The subject site consists of three residentially zoned lots that total 0.54 acres.
Once the lots are re-mapped into one, and construction is completed, the subject
site provides adequate parking and circulation for the type and intensity of the
land use proposed.
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.
Adams Avenue is a 50-foot wide Local Street designed to carry a combination of
light commercial and residential traffic between minor collectors, major collectors,
and primary arterials. Adams Avenue is adequate in size to continue to meet the
requirements of the existing Church/House of Worship once expanded.
NE

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.
Approval of the requested Special Use Permit for the expansion of an existing
Church/House of Worship will not compromise the public health, safety, or
welfare; nor will it be inconsistent with the General Plan as a Church/House of
Worship is allowed in a residentially zoned district with an approved Special Use
Permit.
5.
The use meets all of the applicable conditions per Title 19.12.
The proposed expansion of the existing Church/House of Worship has met all
applicable conditions per Title 19.12.
FINDINGS (SDR-66141)
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;
The proposed expansion maintains a 21-foot front setback consistent with the
existing surrounding residential neighborhood front setback requirements for the
R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning district of 20 feet. The proposed expansion
will continue to be compatible with development in the area.
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 includes the expansion of a legal, nonconforming
Church/House of Worship which requires a side setback Variance to maintain the
existing 4.5-foot side setback for the building expansion to the north. Staff is
supporting this request to maintain a uniform building elevation and setback along
the western facade. In addition, exceptions have been requested for the parking
lot landscape requirements. Staff supports this request as well.
3.
Site access and circulation do not negatively impact adjacent roadways or

neighborhood traffic;
NE

Site access will continue to be provided by Adams Avenue, a 50-foot Local Street.
Once completed, the expanded and improved parking lot area will provide
necessary parking and improved site circulation, positively impacting adjacent
roadways and neighborhood traffic.
4.
Building and landscape materials are appropriate for the area and for the
City;
Building materials include a stucco finish and asphalt shingles which are
consistent with the existing residential homes in the area, and the proposed
landscape materials include Texas Rangers and Red Fountain Grass which are
appropriate for a desert climate.
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;
The proposed expansion has been designed to match and blend seamlessly with
the existing structure and will not be unsightly or obnoxious in appearance. Once
completed, the Church/House of Worship will provide an orderly and aesthetically
pleasing environment and will exists harmoniously with the existing surrounding
residential neighborhood.
6.
Appropriate measures are taken to secure and protect the public health,
safety and general welfare.
The proposed development is subject to building permit reviews and site
inspections during the construction phase. Once construction is completed, a final
inspection is performed before a Certificate of Occupancy is issued protecting the
public health, safety, and general welfare.
The Planning Commission voted (6-0) to hold VAR-66138, SUP-66140
10/11/16
and SDR-66141 in abeyance to the December 13, 2016 Planning

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request to Rezone 950 and 1000 East St. Louis Avenue from R-1 (Single
Family Residential) and C-1 (Limited Commercial) to C-V (Civic).
ISSUES
Rezoning the subject site from R-1 (Single Family Residential) and C-1 (Limited
Commercial) to C-V (Civic) will bring the subject site into compliance with the current
General Plan designation of PF (Public Facility).
ANALYSIS
The subject site currently has two zoning districts, R-1 (Single Family Residential) and
C-1 (Limited Commercial).
The Church/House of Worship is currently a legal, nonconforming land use in the R-1
(Single Family Residential) zoning district as the use was established prior to the
requirement of an approved Special Use Permit. By rezoning the subject site to C-V
(Civic), the subject site will be brought into compliance with both the General Plan
designation of PF (Public Facility), but also Title 19.10.020, which allows a
Church/House of Worship land use in the C-V (Civic) zoning district without the
necessity of a Special Use Permit.
FINDINGS (ZON-67385)
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 subject site has a General Plan designation of PF (Public Facility), which
supports the C-V (Civic) zoning district.
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.
NE
ZON-67385 [PRJ-67381]
The C-V (Civic) district provides for any public or quasi-public uses operated or
controlled by any recognized religious, fraternal, veteran, civic, or service
organization. Such uses include the Church/House of Worship currently on the
subject site today.
3.
Growth and development factors in the community indicate the need for or
appropriateness of the rezoning.
The existing Church/House of Worship is a legal, nonconforming land use since
the Church/House of Worship was established prior to the requirement of a
Special Use Permit set forth by Title 19.12 for a Church/House of Worship use in
the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning district. Rezoning the subject site to CV (Civic) aligns the subject site with the current General Plan designation of PF
(Public Facility), and brings the Church/House of Worship structure and use into
compliance with Title 19.10 and Title 19.12.
4.

adequate in size to meet the requirements of the proposed zoning district.
Access to the subject site is provided from St. Louis Avenue, an 80-foot Major
Collector as classified by the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. St. Louis
Avenue provides adequate vehicular capacity for the existing Church/House of
Worship.
Rezoning the subject site from R-1 (Single Family Residential) and C-1 (Limited
Commercial) to C-V (Civic) will bring the property into compliance with the existing General
Plan designation of PF (Public Facility); therefore, staff is recommending approval of this
application.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant has requested a Variance to allow a 76 square-foot projecting sign where
32 square feet is the maximum allowed and to allow the sign to be four feet above the
rafter line where one-foot is the maximum allowed at an existing Hotel/Casino located at
1215 South Las Vegas Boulevard.
ISSUES
The applicant has proposed to renovate an existing projecting sign located on the
west elevation of the subject site facing Las Vegas Boulevard.
ANALYSIS
The subject property is located within the Downtown Centennial Plan Downtown
South District and Scenic Byway Overlay District. The applicant is proposing to renovate
an existing projecting sign located on the west elevation of the existing building facing
Las Vegas Boulevard. It appears that the proposed signage is all located within existing
public right-of-way. This right-of-way is currently encumbered by a private patio and
other private improvements, including signage, for the abutting Aruba (Thunderbird)
building. Staff notes that Las Vegas Boulevard Widening Project Phase 2 public
improvement project is adjacent to this site, and recommend that any approval of such
encroachments shall be temporary and subject to a License Agreement requiring the
applicant to remove these encroachments at the applicants expense if they are in
conflict with the public improvement project. The existing sign was previously approved
with a 6.66 foot projection from the building elevation and an approved encroachment
permit is already in place. No variance is required for this development standard.
The existing sign spells out the word Aruba vertically with a large multi-colored bird
(thunderbird) located on the top of the sign. The applicant has proposed to renovate the
sign to spell out the word Thunderbird vertically, resulting in a sign area of 65.1 square
feet with a 10 square-foot video board at the bottom of the sign, which has resulted in a
larger sign area and higher placement on the building faade. The proposed
renovations to the existing sign have resulted in a sign which is three feet above the
allowable one-foot maximum above the rafter line and exceeds the allowable 32 square
feet in area. The proposed sign remains in compliance with all Scenic Byway Overlay
illumination requirements, which require 75% exposed neon, animation, or any
combination thereof.
JB
VAR-67490 [PRJ-67404]
One of the most important intrinsic qualities that the Downtown Las Vegas Boulevard
Scenic Byway possesses is the nighttime scenic aspect derived from the vast amounts
of neon used in signage. The Scenic Byway Corridor Management Plan outlines
positive scenic features which include 1950s era motels and signage which reference
the classic streetscape of the Boulevard and provide a visual model of what the Strip
resembled prior to the era of mega resorts. Staff has determined that the proposed
renovations to the existing projecting sign are consistent with the intent of the Scenic
Byway Corridor Management Plan; therefore, staff recommends approval with
conditions.
order to:
1.
2.
3.


Evidence of a unique circumstance has been presented, in that the proposed sign
renovation is located within the Scenic Byway Overlay, which outlines positive scenic
features which include 1950s era motels signage. In addition, the proposed larger sign
size will not be a detriment to public good or natural resources. It has been concluded
that the applicants hardship is not preferential in nature, and it is thereby within the
realm of NRS Chapter 278 for granting of Variances.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a 100-lot single family residential subdivision on 20.30 acres within
parcel 2.28 of the Skye Canyon Master Plan Area. A Waiver has been requested to
allow an internal intersection offset of 84 feet where is 125 feet is required.
ISSUES
The recordation of the Parent Final Map for Skye Canyon Phase II (FMP-61563) is
required prior to the recordation of any builder parcel final map.
A Waiver has been requested to allow an internal intersection offset of 84 feet

where is 125 feet is required. Staff recommends approval of the request.
This 100-lot residential development will be built to Skye Canyon R-1 (Single
Family Residential) standards in accordance with the approved Sky Canyon
Development Standards. Staff recommends approval of the Tentative Map request
ANALYSIS
The subject property is part of the Skye Canyon Master Plan Area, which is governed
by a Development Agreement between the Master Developer and the City of Las
Vegas, as well as the Skye Canyon Development Standards.
The Skye Canyon Land Use Plan designates the subject property as ML (Residential
Medium-Low), which allows up to 15 residential units per gross acre with an overall
average of 8.49 units per acre. The proposed density of 4.93 dwelling units per acre
falls within the maximum allowed. The dwelling units will be constructed to the Skye
Canyon R-1 (Single Family Residential) standard, which call for a single family
detached product with a minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet. All proposed lot sizes
are greater than 5,250 square feet, which exceeds the district minimum. As this site is
part of a master plan with its own improvement standards, it is not subject to Title 19.04
street section requirements; however, it must comply with the applicable Skye Canyon
street sections. The correct street sections have been depicted on the map in
accordance with the Skye Canyon Village Street and Trail Exhibit.
The submitted east/west cross section depicts maximum natural grade greater than two
percent across the site. Per the Skye Canyon Development Standards, retaining walls
with a maximum height of six feet (exterior) and eight feet (interior) are allowed along
the perimeter of the site. The cross sections are in compliance with these requirements.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit for a proposed Retail Establishment with
Accessory Package Liquor Off-Sale use at 5639 Centennial Center Boulevard.
ISSUES
A Retail Establishment with Accessory Package Liquor Off-Sale use is permitted in

the T-C (Town Center) zoning district [SC-TC (Service Commercial Town Center)
Special Land Use Designation] with the approval of a Special Use Permit.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit for a proposed Retail Establishment
with Accessory Package Liquor Off-Sale use. The subject property is an established
Shopping Center which is currently zoned T-C (Town Center) with a special land use
designation of SC-TC (Service Commercial Town Center). The proposed location is
currently vacant, but was previously occupied as a General Retail Store with a
Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment use, which was marked out of business on
04/01/16. Pursuant to Title 19.16.110(P)(2)(a), the Special Use Permit (SUP-27693)
expired October 3, 2016.
A Retail Establishment with Accessory Package Liquor Off-Sale use is permitted in the
T-C (Town Center) zoning district within the special land use designation of SC-TC
(Service Commercial Town Center) with an approval of a Special Use Permit.
Additionally, the following analysis is required:
The Retail Establishment with Accessory Package Liquor Off-Sale use is defined as A
retail establishment:
1. Whose license to sell alcoholic beverages authorizes their sale to consumers
only and not for resale, in original sealed or corked containers, for consumption
off the premise where the same are sold; and
RG
SUP-67403 [PRJ-67129]
2. In which the sale of alcoholic beverages is ancillary to the retail use, and in which
no more than 10 percent of the retail floor space is regularly devoted to the
display or merchandising of alcoholic beverages. Recent passage of the
ordinance has revised Title 19, regarding the use.
The Town Center
Development Standards equivalent to the Retail Establishment with Accessory
Package Liquor Off-Sale use from the Title 19 land use category is Grocery Store
with Alcohol use. The proposed use meets the definition, as the proposed use
will be in conjunction with a proposed grocery store.
*1.
Except as otherwise provided, no retail establishment with accessory package

liquor off-sale (hereinafter establishment) shall be located within 400 feet of any
church/house of worship, school, individual care center licensed for more than 12
children, or City park.
There are no Church/House of Worships, Schools, Individual Care Centers
licensed for more than 12 children or City Parks within 400 feet of the subject
site.
*2.
Except as otherwise provided in Requirement 3 below, the distances referred to

in Requirement 1 shall be determined with reference to the shortest distance
between two properties lines, one being the property line of the proposed
establishment 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 establishment. The distance shall be measured in a
straight line without regard to intervening obstacles.
For purposes of
measurement, the term property line refers to property lines of fee interest
parcels and does not include the property line of:
a. Any leasehold parcel; or
b. Any parcel which lacks access to a public street or has no area for on site
parking and which has been created so as to avoid the distance limitation
described in Requirement 1.
There are no Church/House of Worships, School, Individual Care Centers
licensed for more than 12 children or City Parks within 400 feet of the subject
site.
RG
SUP-67403 [PRJ-67129]
*3.
In the case of an establishment proposed to be located on a parcel of at least 80

acres in size, the minimum distances referred to in Requirement 1 shall be
measured in a straight line:
a. From the nearest property line of the existing use to the nearest portion of
the structure in which the establishment will be located, without regard to
intervening obstacles; or
b. In the case of a proposed establishment which will be located within a
shopping center or other multiple tenant structure, from the nearest
property line of a leasehold or occupancy parcel in which the
establishment will be located, without regard to intervening obstacles.
Not applicable, since the proposed Retail Establishment with Accessory Package
Liquor Off-Sale use will be located in a parcel that is not 80 acres of size. The
Clark County Assessors Office lists the subject property at 16.79 acres.
4.
When considering a Special Use Permit application for an establish which also
requires a waiver of the distance limitation in Requirement 1, the Planning
Commission shall take into consideration the distance policy and shall, as part of
its recommendation to the City Council, state whether the distance requirement
should be waived and the reasons in support of the decision.
The proposed use is located in a shopping center and the distance separation
measurement is based on the leasehold parcel. The General Retail Store
contains 14,000 square-foot of retail space and will sell package liquor within an
area no greater than 10 percent of the retail space.
5.
The minimum distance requirements in Requirement 1 do not apply to:

a. An establishment which has a nonrestricted 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 200 guest rooms after
July 1, 1992; or
b. A proposed establishment having more than 50,000 square feet of retail
floor space.
This requirement does not apply.
RG
SUP-67403 [PRJ-67129]
*6.
All businesses which sell alcoholic beverages shall conform to the provisions of
LVMC Chapter 6.50.
The proposed use if licensed will be subject to compliance review for inspections.
7.
The minimum distance requirements set forth in Requirement 1, which are

otherwise nonwaivable under the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C), may be
waived:
a. In accordance with the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C) for any
establishment which is proposed to be located on a parcel within the
Downtown Casino Overlay District:
b. In accordance with the applicable provisions of the Town Center
Development Standards Manual for any establishment which is proposed
to be located within the T-C (Town Center) Zoning District and which is
designated MS-TC (Main Street Mixed-Use) in the Town Center Land Use
Plan;
c. In connection with a proposed establishment having between 20,000
square feet and 50,000 square feet of retail floor space; or
d. In connection with a retail establishment having less than 20,000 square
feet of retail floor space, if the area to be used for the sale, display or
merchandising of alcoholic beverages and each use to be protected are
separated by a highway or a right-of-way with a width of at least 100 feet.
The proposed use meets subsection (d) of this requirement as the proposed
General Retail Store floor space contains 14,000 square feet and no more than
10 percent of the retail floor space is devoted to the display or merchandising of
alcoholic beverage. There are no protected uses located within the subject
property.
The proposed Retail Establishment with Accessory Package Liquor Off-Sale use will be
located within an established Shopping Center and can be conducted in a manner that
is harmonious and compatible with existing surrounding land uses and future
surrounding land uses. There are no protected uses located within 400 feet of the
subject property. Staff recommends approval of this request with conditions. If this
application is denied the proposed General Retail Store cannot sell alcohol at this
location.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit to allow a casita with full kitchen at 5921 Huff
Mountain Avenue.
ISSUES
Pursuant to Iron Mountain Ranch Development Standards and Title 19.12, an

Accessory Structure (Class I) is permissible in the R-PD2 (Residential Planned
Development 2 Units per Acre) zoning district with approval of a Special Use
Permit.
ANALYSIS
The subject site contains an existing 3,290 square-foot single family residence at 5921
Huff Mountain Avenue. The subject site currently has two accessory structures located
in the rear yard area; a 640 square-foot Accessory Structure (Class II) [garage] and a
440 square-foot Accessory Structure (Class II) [shed]. The applicant has proposed to
convert the existing one-story detached Accessory Structure (Class II) [shed] into an
Accessory Structure (Class I) with complete living facilities and a full kitchen. In addition,
the applicant has proposed to add 420 square feet of floor area to the structure resulting
in a total of 860 square feet. The submitted building elevations indicate that the
structure will aesthetically match the principle dwelling unit.
The Accessory Structure (Class I) use is define as An accessory structure which is
located on the same residential parcel as a principal dwelling and which, as an ancillary
use, provide living quarters, including full kitchen facilities, for the occupants of the
principal dwelling or their tenants, domestic employees or temporary guests. This
proposed use is appropriate for the subject property as the applicants justification letter
states that it will be occupied by family and friends only and will not be used as a rental
unit.
* 1. The size of the lot or parcel must exceed 6500 square feet.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the lot is 35,719 square feet.
JB
SUP-67458 [PRJ-67315]
2. Unless the principal dwelling is owner-occupied, a Class I accessory structure

may not be offered or occupied as a rental unit.
The proposed use meets requirements as stated in the applicants justification letter,
date stamped 10/27/16, that the building will be occupied by family and friends only and
not as a rental unit.
The addition of the accessory structure is consistent with the 2020 Master Plan Housing
Element which states: Providing a mix of housing types is important to a community
that desires to be responsive to its residents. A diversity of housing types and prices is
desirable so people can age in place. With diverse housing, families can move within
the same housing development or neighborhood and social networks can remain intact;
children need not be uprooted from familiar schools and elderly persons can remain
near friends and families. Also, If alternative housing opportunities are not available
within the same neighborhood, the residents are forced to leave the neighborhood to
which they are accustomed. It is important, therefore, that a wide range of housing
choices be made available within the same neighborhood.
The proposed project meets all Iron Mountain Ranch Development Standards and Title
19 requirements for an Accessory Structure (Class I). The proposed structure can be
construed in a manner that is harmonious and compatible with the surrounding land
uses and is consistent with the intent of the Housing Element of the Las Vegas 2020
Master Plan; therefore, staff recommends approval of this request. If denied, an
Accessory Structure (Class II) can be built; however, a full kitchen would not be allowed.
1.

The proposed Accessory Structure (Class I) use will be located on a property with
a single-family residence and can be operated 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.
2.

JB
SUP-67458 [PRJ-67315]
The proposed Accessory Structure (Class I) adheres to all minimum requirements

as outlined by the Iron Mountain Ranch Development Standards and Title 19.
The lot size of 35,719 square feet can physically accommodate the proposed
Accessory Structure (Class I) use.
3.

Primary access to the site is provided from Huff Mountain Avenue, a 38-foot wide
private street within the residential subdivision, which can provide adequate
access to the Accessory Structure (Class I) use.
4.
This use will be subject to building inspections via the permitting process;
therefore, it will not compromise the public health, welfare or safety.
5.
The proposed Accessory Structure (Class I) use meets all of the applicable
conditions of Title 19.12.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit for a proposed Massage Establishment to be
located within the Lucky Dragon Hotel and Casino at 300 West Sahara Avenue.
ISSUES
Per Title 19.12, a Massage Establishment use is permissible in the C-2 (General
Commercial) zoning district with approval of a Special Use Permit.
A Waiver is required to allow a distance separation of zero feet from a residential
use where 400 feet is the minimum distance required. Staff recommends approval of
the request.
ANALYSIS
The proposed Massage Establishment use will be located within an existing Gaming
Establishment, Non Restricted use. Per the submitted justification letter, the services
offered will include: foot reflexology, facial treatments, body massages and nail
treatments. The Massage Establishment use is defined by Title 19.18 as: A facility
which is occupied and used for the purpose of practicing massage therapy as defined in
LVMC Chapter 6.52. This use does not include the use accessory massage, as
defined in this Title.
1. The use shall comply with all applicable requirements of LVMC Title 6.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as a condition of approval has been
added requiring compliance with all applicable LVMC Title 6 requirements.
2. The use must be located on a secondary thoroughfare or larger.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the subject site is located off of
Sahara Avenue, a 120-foot wide Primary Arterial as indicated on the Master Plan
of Streets and Highways
CS
SUP-67488 [PRJ-67446]
3. The use may not be located within 400 feet of any church/house of worship,
school, City park, individual care center licensed for more than 12 children, or
any parcel zoned for residential use.
The proposed use does not meet this requirement, as there is a residentially
zoned property within 400 feet of the subject site to the west. The applicant is
requesting a Waiver to address the issue. Specifically, the applicant is requesting
a Waiver to allow a distance separation of zero feet from a residential use where
400 feet is the minimum distance required.
4. The use may not be located within 1,000 feet of any other massage
establishment.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as there are no other massage
establishments located within 1,000 feet of the subject property.
5. The hours of operation shall be limited to the period between 6:00 a.m. and
10:00 p.m., unless further limited by the City Council on a case-by-case basis.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the applicant indicates in the
submitted justification letter, date stamped 10/27/16, that the hours of operation
would be 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Although the applicant is requesting a waiver with a zero-foot distance separation from
a residential use, the proposed use would be located completely within the existing
Lucky Dragon Hotel and Casino at the subject site. Other than the minimum use
requirements in Title 19.12, there are no special development requirements pertaining
to this site. The massage establishment should have minimal effect on the surrounding
area; therefore, staff recommends approval of this request.
1.

CS
SUP-67488 [PRJ-67446]
The proposed massage establishment can be conducted in a harmonious manner

with the surrounding area as it will be located completely within the existing
Hotel/Casino. The massage establishment will be an added amenity to the current
Gaming Establishment, Non-restricted use and is consistent with the G-O
(Gaming Enterprise Overlay) District requirements.
2.
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for the uses and scale of development
proposed for the site. The Downtown Centennial Plan specifically calls for
development of this type and intensity in this area.
3.

The proposed Massage Establishment can be accessed from Sahara Avenue, a
100-foot Primary Arterial as indicated on the Master Plan of Streets and Highways
that has adequate capacity to serve the existing development.
4.
The proposed Massage Establishment use will be subject to regular City and
County inspections for licensing and will therefore not compromise the public
health, safety, and general welfare or any objective of the General Plan.
5.
The proposed Massage Establishment does not adhere to minimum distance

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit for a proposed 1,027 square-foot
Accessory Structure (Class I) [Casita] in the rear yard of the property at 4107 Del Monte
Avenue. The casita would be occupied by relatives of the property owner.
ISSUES
An Accessory Structure (Class I) use is permitted in the R-E (Residence Estates)

zoning district with the approval of a Special Use Permit.
Until recently, the lot contained a 527 square-foot structure classified as a second
single-family dwelling by the Clark County Assessor. The structure was removed
after it began to collapse.
ANALYSIS
The Accessory Structure (Class I) use is defined as An accessory structure which is
located on the same residential parcel as a principal dwelling and which, as an ancillary
use, provide living quarters, including full kitchen facilities, for the occupants of the
principal dwelling or their tenants, domestic employees or temporary guests. The
proposed use meets the definition, as a structure is proposed that will be located behind
the principal dwelling and will provide both cooking and sleeping quarters for relatives of
the occupants of the principal dwelling.
1. The size of the lot or parcel must exceed 6500 square feet. (NONWAIVABLE)
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the subject lot is 33,541 square
feet in size.
2. Unless the principal dwelling is owner-occupied, a Class I accessory structure
may not be offered or occupied as a rental unit.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the casita would be occupied full
time by persons related to the owner.
SS
SUP-67546 [PRJ-66891]
The proposed single-story Accessory Structure (Class I) is a modular building that

would be located in the central portion of the lot approximately 82 feet behind the
existing house. It is 44 feet wide and approximately 23 feet long. In order to meet the
definition of an accessory structure, it must be of lesser area than the principal dwelling.
According to Clark County Assessor records, the existing house is 1,123 square feet.
As the accessory building is less than 1,200 square feet, it does not qualify as a
manufactured home and second single-family unit. The modular accessory structure
features a vinyl exterior and grey roof shingles. Compatibility of the modular casita
structure with the principal dwelling is indicated by the applicants statement within the
provided justification letter that the modular structure will be painted to match the
existing principal dwelling. The accessory structure contains a kitchen and dining area,
living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. A carport will be constructed adjacent
to the proposed accessory structure to provide an additional parking space as required
by Title 19.12.070.
Building records indicate that a 20-foot by 26-foot casita was located in a similar
location until recently. Prior to 2006, habitable accessory structures (termed guest
houses or casitas) were conditional uses as long as only one occupant room, a closet
and bathroom were provided. No kitchens or additional rooms were allowed without
approval of a Special Use Permit. The current code also allows for kitchens provided a
Special Use Permit is approved. The proposed structure meets the two minimum
Special Use Permit criteria as shown above, as well as Title 19.06.040(C) requirements
for accessory structures.
The proposed Accessory Structure (Class I) meets all minimum Special Use Permit
requirements, will be compatible with the principal dwelling and will be situated on the
lot such that views from Del Monte Avenue will be limited. Staff therefore recommends
approval, subject to conditions.
1.

The proposed Accessory Structure (Class I) will be located behind the principal
dwelling with limited views from the street. It will be painted to match the colors of

proposed.
The subject site meets the nonwaivable 6,500 square-foot minimum size
requirement for casitas. The proposed casita would be situated on the lot so as to
cause minimal impact to neighboring properties.
3.

Access to the property is from Del Monte Avenue, a 60-foot Minor Street as
classified by Las Vegas Municipal Code. Several lots along the north side of Del
Monte Avenue narrow the right-of-way width to 55 feet. This street has access to
Hinson Street, a collector for this area. This access is adequate to meet the
requirements of the proposed Accessory Structure (Class I) use, as it will only be
used by the property owner and her guests.
4.
Approval of a Special Use Permit for the Accessory Structure (Class I) use will still
require review and approval of building plans and inspection of construction,
thereby protecting the public health, safety and welfare.
5.
The proposed Accessory Structure (Class I) meets the minimum lot size
requirement, and the structure will not be occupied as a rental unit at this time.
There are no relevant actions associated with this site.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a major amendment to an approved Site Development Plan Review
(SDR-41886) for a 15,000 square-foot Commercial Recreation/Amusement (Indoor)
facility and a 4,800 square-foot restaurant building on the west side of Rock Springs
Drive, approximately 330 feet south of Lake Mead Boulevard.
ISSUES
The subject site was approved as a Shopping Center and is partially built out with an
Auto Repair, Minor and a Restaurant.
The subject pads were intended to be a future phase and no building elevations
accompanied the previous review. This proposed amendment will allow for the
orderly development of the remaining pad sites. Staff recommends approval of the
request.
Per the approved site plan, the two undeveloped subject pads were originally
depicted as a 20,000 square-foot office building and a 5,375 square-foot restaurant
building.
The applicant intends to add additional landscaping along the south, west and north
property lines so that the site meets minimum Title 19.08 landscape requirements.
The applicant will install parking lot trees where landscape islands without trees
currently exist.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is part of a 37,243 square-foot shopping center approved (SDR-41886)
by the City Council in 2011. The applicant is proposing to convert two undeveloped
building pads into a 15,000 square-foot Commercial Recreation/Amusement (Indoor)
facility and a 4,800 square-foot building with tenant space for an anticipated restaurant.
Both pads did not have specific plans with the original approval as they were intended
to be developed as a future phase, but the anticipated uses at the time were for a
20,000 square-foot office building and a 5,375 square-foot restaurant. All parking areas
and drive aisles were installed with the construction of the shopping center. The
required parking for the proposed uses is adequately accommodated on the site.
The perimeter landscaping has been installed, but the applicant has agreed to add
additional landscaping so that it meets current code requirements. The site as it
currently exists has sparse or nonexistent landscaping along the south, west and north
property lines. The landscape plan depicts 24-inch box trees along the perimeter of the
FS
SDR-67388 [PRJ-67387]
site planted 30 feet on-center as required by Title 19.08. As it is difficult to differentiate

between the existing and proposed landscaping on the plan set, a condition of approval
has been added to ensure compliance with Title 19.08 perimeter landscape
requirements. The site has a number of parking lot landscape islands that have no
vegetation, and the landscape plan depicts the required trees and shrubs installed in
these areas. Tree species used throughout the site include Mexican Palo Verde,
Chitalpa, Holly Oak, Ash, and African Sumac.
The building elevations for the proposed Commercial Recreation/Amusement (Indoor)
facility depict a 40-foot tall building with a flat roof and a sand stucco finish. The
building faade is articulated with an aluminum storefront, glazing, and metal and fabric
awnings. The elevations for the proposed restaurant utilize similar construction
materials, but it has a sloped roof and a building height of 27 feet. The materials and
appearance of the buildings are consistent and compatible with the development in the
surrounding area.
The proposed development is appropriate for the C-1 (General Commercial) zone and
adjacent uses will not be adversely affected by the proposed Commercial
Recreation/Amusement (Indoor) and restaurant use. The overall site will be enhanced
as both remaining pad sites will be developed, and additional landscaping will be
installed where it is lacking or doesnt exist. Staff recommends approval of the
amendment request.
1.

The proposed development is located in a commercial area and is compatible with
adjacent development and development in the area.
2.
The development is consistent with all applicable adopted city plans, policies and
standards.
FS
SDR-67388 [PRJ-67387]
3.

Site access and circulation will not negatively impact adjacent roadways or
neighborhood traffic.
4.
City;
The proposed landscape and building materials are appropriate for the area and
for the City.
5.

The building elevations are not unsightly or obnoxious in appearance and are
harmonious and compatible with development in the area.
6.
The site will be subject to regular inspection and therefore does not compromise
the publics health, safety or general welfare.

COMMENTS:
Federal Aviation Regulations (Title 14, Part 77) require that the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) be notified before the construction or alteration of any building or structure greater than
200 feet in height ( 77.13(a)(1)) or that will exceed a slope of 100:1 for a distance of 20,000
feet from the nearest point of any airport runway greater than 3,200 feet in length ( 77.13
(a)(2)(i)). Such notification allows the FAA to determine what impact, if any, the proposed
development will have upon navigable airspace, and allows the FAA to determine whether the
development requires obstruction marking or lighting.
The proposed development will exceed the 100:1 notice requirement for McCarran International
Airport (LAS). Therefore, as required by 14 CFR Part 77, the FAA must be notified of the
proposed construction or alteration. The CCDOA requests that the City of Las Vegas impose
the conditions listed below for the project:
Applicant is required to file a valid FAA Form 7460-1, "Notice of Proposed Construction
or Alteration" with the FAA, in accordance with 14 CFR Part 77, or submit to the Clark
County Director of Aviation a Property Owners Shielding Determination Statement
and request written concurrence from the Clark County Department of Aviation;
No Building Permit or other construction permit shall be issued for any structure greater
than 35 feet above the surface of land that, based upon the FAAs 7460 airspace
determination (the outcome of filing the FAA Form 7460-1), would (a) constitute a
hazard to air navigation, (b) would result in an increase to minimum flight altitudes
during any phase of flight (unless approved by the Department of Aviation), or (c) would
otherwise be determined to pose a significant adverse impact on airport or aircraft
operations.
Applicant is advised that FAAs airspace determinations are dependent on petitions by
any interested party and the height that will not present a hazard as determined by the
FAA may change based on these comments.
Applicant is advised that the FAAs airspace determinations include expiration dates and
that the separate airspace determinations will be needed for construction cranes or other
temporary equipment.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to vacate a City of Las Vegas public right-of-way generally
known as a portion of Alexander Road east of Rancho Drive.
ISSUES
The Department of Public Works requested the proposed vacation of right-of-way

per condition of approval #1 associated with approved Parcel Map (PMP-66120).
ANALYSIS
This Vacation application proposes to vacate existing Public Right-of-Ways. Public
Works offers the following comments:
A. Does this vacation request result in uniform or non-uniform right-of-way
widths? Yes. The proposed vacation will result in removing excess right-ofway for Alexander Road.
B. From a traffic handling viewpoint will this vacation request result in a reduced
traffic handling capability? No, since the road was re-aligned.
C. Does it appear that the vacation request involves only excess right-of-way?
Yes. Since Alexander Road was re-aligned to the south it is no longer
required.
D. Does this vacation request coincide with development plans of the adjacent
parcels? Yes. The northwest corner of Leon Avenue and Alexander Road is
being developed as a charter school and a Parcel Map has also been
submitted (PMP-66120)
E. Does this vacation request eliminate public street access to any abutting
parcel? No.
F. Does this vacation request result in a conflict with any existing City
requirements? No.
G. Does the Department of Public Works have an objection to this vacation
request? No.
JB
VAC-67371 [PRJ-66718]

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to vacate a public drainage easement generally located at
the northeast corner of Bonanza Road and Marion Drive.
ANALYSIS
This application request proposes that the City of Las Vegas relinquish its interest in a
public drainage easement associated with Assessors Parcel Number 140-29-801-004,
generally located on the northeast corner of Bonanza Road and Marion Drive. The
public drainage easement for the site has changed and this recorded easement is no
longer required. It is noted that this request is in relation to the Site Development Plan
Review (SDR-60350) for a proposed 59,826 square-foot building for a Private School,
Primary use on the subject site.
This Vacation application proposes to vacate existing public drainage easement. As no
right-of-way is being proposed to be vacated, and no franchise rights are involved it is
not necessary to send this Vacation request to the utility companies and franchise
holders, nor wait for their responses. Since only City easements are involved, any utility
company interests will need to be addressed with each respective utility company and
will not be affected by the City vacating its interest. Staff recommends approval with
conditions.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request from the City of Las Vegas for a Petition to Vacate excess public rightof-way in Commerce Street, Wyoming Avenue and Main Street adjacent to Block 6 of
Boulder Addition (APN 162-03-210-012).
ANALYSIS
The City of Las Vegas is in the process of constructing the Main/Commerce Couplet
public improvement project, which is intended to improve traffic handling in this area.
Main Street and Commerce Street are parallel streets running north-south adjacent to
Assessors Parcel Number 162-03-210-012, which covers an entire city block. The
rights-of-way to be vacated are not used for roadway purposes and can accrue to the
adjacent property owner. The needed right-of-way widths, including sidewalks, are
currently sufficient. There are no required trails in the subject rights-of-way.
The Department of Public Works has presented the following information concerning
this request to vacate certain public street rights-of-way:
A. Does this vacation request result in uniform or non-uniform right-of-way widths?
Uniform, as it will vacate portions of right-of-way not used by the roadways.
B. From a traffic handling viewpoint will this vacation request result in a reduced
traffic handling capability?
No, as it does not vacate any rights-of-way currently used for roadway purposes,
and it facilitates construction of improvements to improve traffic handling on the
Main/Commerce couplet.
C. Does it appear that the vacation request involves only excess right-of-way?
Yes.
D. Does this vacation request coincide with development plans of the adjacent
parcels?
Yes, the Main/Commerce Couplet Public Improvement Project.
E. Does this vacation request eliminate public street access to any abutting parcel?
No.
SS
VAC-67457 [PRJ-67452]
F. Does this vacation request result in a conflict with any existing City
requirements?
No.
G. Does the Department of Public Works have an objection to this vacation
request?
No.
As the rights-of-way to be vacated are not currently used for roadway purposes and will
not result in a reduction of traffic handling capacity, staff recommends approval of the
Petition to Vacate, subject to conditions.
The City Council approved an appeal from the decision of the Board of
Zoning Adjustment to approve a request for a Variance (V-0140-84) to
allow a proposed 301-unit apartment development (demo and rebuild
of existing apartment use) and to provide 113 parking spaces where
03/20/85
301 spaces were required at 1600 South Main Street. The City
Council approved the apartments but denied the portion of the
variance to allow reduced parking. Staff recommended approval of the
apartments but denial of the parking reduction.
The City Council approved a Variance (V-0021-86) to allow a
proposed 301-unit apartment development (demo and rebuild of

spaces were required at 1600 South Main Street. The Board of
Zoning Adjustment recommended approval. Staff recommended
approval of the apartments but denial of the parking reduction.
The City Council denied an appeal from the decision of the Board of

provide 78 parking spaces where 310 spaces were required at 1600

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Site Development Plan Review for a Waiver of Title 19.08
landscape irrigation requirement for the proposed removal of the required underground
irrigation system at 4600 Meadows Lane.
ISSUES
This request is a result of Code Enforcement Case (#158579), which was processed
on 08/19/15 for landscape plants dying at rear of property along with parking islands
located at 4600 Meadows Lane. The case has not been resolved.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is currently developed as a shopping center within the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district. The applicant has indicated in the submitted justification
letter that the previous tenants of the shopping center were engaged in a form of
Homeowners Association, with former tenant (Mervyns) acting as the management
company. Each of the entities paid Mervyns its fair share of expenses. Currently,
ownership of the involved entities has changed and the association has been dissolved,
causing an interruption in utility service. At this time the subject property does not have
a water irrigation meter, nor does it have the old irrigation system to tap into, which
makes watering the small landscape finger islands difficult. The applicant has proposed
to install drought-resistant landscape materials, which will be hand watered for a period
of 12 months to ensure establishment of the root system.
The primary plant species utilized for landscaping is the five-gallon Desert Broom, fivegallon Princes Plume and five-gallon Red Yucca shrubs, none of which are native
pursuant to the Southern Nevada Regional Plan Coalition Regional Plant List. An
Exception of plant materials is required to use the proposed shrubs in lieu of the
required trees. Staff believes the proposed species will not survive without a functioning,
in-ground irrigation system. Native landscape requires years of supplemental irrigation
to establish within the urbanized area, especially with the prolonged drought that
southern Nevada has been experiencing, and staff feels that any plant material installed
without irrigation will be guaranteed to perish. Plot Plan Review (Z-0102-73) required
landscape with a functional, in-ground irrigation system, which the supporting property
owners failed to maintain. As the current conditions are self-imposed and could be
resolved through the willingness of the property owner to install a functioning irrigation
JB
SDR-66170 [PRJ-65854]
system, staff has determined the proposed project is not compatible with surrounding
development in the area, as demonstrated by the associated Waiver. Therefore, staff
recommends denial of this request with conditions.
1.

The proposal to waive Title 19.08 landscape irrigation requirements is not
compatible with the adjacent residential and commercial development in the
area. Staff has determined that the proposed species will not survive without a
functioning, in-ground irrigation system, which will have an overall negative
impact to the area.
2.
The proposal to waive Title 19.08 landscape irrigation requirements is not
consistent with the Title 19. Staff has determined the associated waiver will have a
negative impact to the overall development.
3.

Primary site access is from Meadows Lane, a 60-foot wide Local Street. The rightof-way provides adequate capacity to serve the proposed use.
4.
City;
The project design and style are not appropriate for the subject location and will
not be harmonious with buildings in the surrounding area. The primary plant
species utilized for landscaping are the five-gallon Desert Brooms, five-gallon
Princes Plumes and five-gallon Red Yucca shrubs, none of which are native
pursuant to the Southern Nevada Regional Plan Coalition Regional Plant List. The
proposed species will not survive without a functioning, in-ground irrigation
system; staff recommends denial of this request.

SDR-66170 [PRJ-65854]
5.

There are no structures proposed with this request, the design characteristics of
the proposed parking lot improvements are not compatible with development in
the area.
6.
The proposed development will be subject to inspections in order to protect the
public health, safety and general welfare by City staff.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to develop a shopping center on 9.63 acres of undeveloped
land at the southeast corner of Deer Springs Way and Hualapai Way. The center would
be anchored by a grocery store and have three in-line multitenant buildings. A corner
convenience store with fuel pumps and two additional pad sites are also proposed. The
applications were held in abeyance at the request of the applicant in order to revise the
site plan and landscape plan. As a result, the waiver request to allow five-foot perimeter
landscape buffers along the north and west property lines is no longer needed.
However, an additional parcel was also added to the project during this time, requiring a
Rezoning and new tentative map, thereby requiring renotification of the public hearing.
ISSUES
The applicant has requested to abey these items to the 01/10/17 Planning
Commission meeting in order to submit applications for a Rezoning, Vacation and
Tentative Map related to this site.
The applicant has added a newly annexed parcel (APN 125-19-301-010) to the
request. This parcel needs to be rezoned to match the associated parcels. The
addition of this parcel also triggers the need for a Vacation of right-of-way and a new
tentative map.
The previously requested Waiver to allow a five-foot perimeter landscape buffer
along a portion of the west property line and a five-foot perimeter landscape buffer
along a portion of the north property line where 15 feet is required is no longer
needed, as the applicant has submitted revised site and landscape plans that
indicate 15-foot buffer widths. The redesign reduced parking by seven spaces, but
the overall site will remain in conformance with Title 19 parking requirements.
A trash enclosure that had been located in direct view of the Deer Springs way rightof-way was relocated behind the proposed car wash vacuum bays and screened by
landscaping to conform to Title 19 commercial development standards.
Approval of a Variance is necessary to allow a 15-foot rear yard setback for the
Shops A building where 20 feet is required. Staff recommends denial of the
Variance request.
No landscape buffer is proposed along the east perimeter due to anticipation of a
future commercial site on the adjacent lot, which is part of the same proposed
commercial subdivision. Staff recommends denial of the associated Waiver.
A Waiver is required to allow a five-foot perimeter landscape buffer along a portion
of the south property line where eight feet is required. Staff recommends denial of
the waiver.
SS

A Waiver is required to allow buildings to not be oriented to the corner and street
frontages where such is required. Staff recommends denial of the waiver.
A Waiver is required to allow car wash bays to face a public right-of-way (Deer
Springs Way) where such is not allowed. Staff recommends denial of the waiver.
An Exception is required to allow 100 parking lot trees where 102 trees and
accompanying shrubs are required. Staff recommends denial of the Exception.
Additional trees are required within the perimeter landscape buffers. An Exception
was not requested. A condition of approval addresses this deficiency, which is due
to spacing trees too far apart.
A Car Wash, Full Service use is permitted in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning
district with approval of a Special Use Permit.
A Liquor Establishment (Tavern) use is permitted in the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district with approval of a Special Use Permit. A Waiver to allow a 339-foot
distance separation from a school where 1,500 feet is required has been requested.
Staff recommends that the waiver be denied.
A Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale use is permitted in the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district with approval of a Special Use Permit.
A Grocery Store with Alcohol is a conditional use in the C-1 (Limited Commercial)
zoning district. All conditions can be met by the proposed use.
A Drive-Through is a conditional use in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district.
All conditions can be met by the proposed use.
Two parking rows face the perimeter streets. Per Title 19.08.110, these rows must
be screened from adjacent roadways in a manner acceptable to the Department of
Planning. A condition of approval addresses this.
ANALYSIS
Development within this site is subject to the requirements of LVMC Title 19, specifically
19.08 Commercial Development Standards and C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning
district standards and 19.12 regarding permitted uses. Several changes were made to
the site and landscape plans on 11/08/16 to bring certain aspects of these plans into
conformance with Title 19. The applicant has acquired the triangular shaped parcel
between the original site and the drainage channel along Clark County 215. The
additional space is proposed to be used for parking and a truck turnaround. The
portions of the north and west perimeter buffers that were less than 15 feet were
widened to 15 feet. In order to free up additional area for these buffers, seven parking
spaces were eliminated, one drive aisle was narrowed and the sidewalk adjacent to
Shops C was narrowed. The plans were also corrected to remove areas of the parking
lot that were within the north side of the Inyo Avenue cul-de-sac, which is required to be
improved by condition of the related Tentative Map (TMP-64814). As a result of these
changes, there will not be any excess parking spaces available for this development in
the future. The pad site proposed along Deer Springs Way was removed and replaced
SS

with additional parking. In addition, the proposed grocery store was reduced in size to
57,584 square feet. The additional changes will need to be renotified to the public.
The site is located at the intersection of two major streets (Hualapai Way and Deer
Springs Way), both of which will be improved adjacent to the development. Freeway
access to Clark County 215 is available at the Hualapai Way interchange. Parcels are
undeveloped in every direction from the site. The Providence Master Planned
Community is located to the west, an undeveloped property zoned for commercial uses
is located to the east, the Clark County 215 Beltway right-of-way is located to the south,
and undeveloped low density residential parcels in both the City and County
jurisdictions are located to the north of Deer Springs Way.
A General Plan Amendment (GPA-64811) to change the land use designation to SC
(Service Commercial) and a Rezoning (ZON-64812) to C-1 (Limited Commercial) on
Assessors Parcel Number 125-19-301-001 were approved by the City Council on
09/07/16, as well as a two-lot Tentative Map (TMP-64814) for a commercial subdivision
that spans this site and the lot to the east of this site. This commercial development is
proposed on the westernmost commercial lot only. A final map must still be recorded to
consolidate the existing parcels that make up this property. Improvements on Inyo
Avenue were deferred until the time of development through the approved Tentative
Map (TMP-64814).
Use Definitions and Conditions per LVMC Title 19

Grocery Store With Alcohol
A Grocery Store is defined by Title 19.18 as A business establishment which occupies
all of the business premises of a building or a portion of the business premises of a
building which is segregated physically or spatially from the rest of the business
premises, and which contains more than five thousand square feet of floor space,
exclusive of warehouse and office space, for the display and sale of foodstuffs, whether
fresh, frozen, canned or packaged, and may include the sales of other products,
including non-food items, alcoholic beverages (if licensed by the City for the sale of
alcoholic beverages) and pharmaceuticals, provided the sale of such pharmaceuticals is
incidental to the primary business of selling products other than pharmaceuticals. The
proposed grocery store would be located on the east side of the lot, would contain
57,884 square feet and sell alcoholic beverages in the form of beer, wine and packaged
liquor.
When alcohol is sold, Title 19.12.070 describes this use as a Grocery Store:
1. Whose license to sell alcoholic beverages authorizes their sale to consumers only
and not for resale, in original sealed or corked containers, for consumption off the
premises where the same are sold; and
SS

2. In which the sale of alcoholic beverages is ancillary to the grocery store use, and in
which no more than 10 percent of the retail floor space is regularly devoted to the
display or merchandising of alcoholic beverages. This use includes an establishment
that provides on-premises wine, cordial and liqueur tasting if the licensee also holds a
wine, cordial and liqueur tasting license for that location.
This use is conditional in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district. As this proposed
Grocery Store with Alcohol will contain greater than 50,000 square feet of retail floor
space, the minimum 400-foot distance separation requirements do not apply, although it
currently meets such requirements (i.e., from a church/house of worship, school,
individual care center or city park). All other conditional use regulations will be met by
the proposed Grocery Store.
Drive-Through
Title 19.18 defines this use as the use of a dedicated drive lane that, incidental to a
principal use, provides access to a station, such as a window, door or mechanical
device, from which occupants of a motor vehicle receive or obtain a product or service.
This use is conditional in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district. Drive-throughs
are proposed both around a proposed automated car wash and fast food restaurant.
Both stacking lanes will accommodate at least six vehicles, as shown on the site plan.
Car Wash, Full Service
The Car Wash, Full Service use is defined as An establishment that provides for the
washing, cleaning, waxing or detailing of passenger vehicles, either by means of
employees or by means of automated or semi-automated methods of cleaning, or by a
combination thereof. The proposed use meets the definition, as an automated
mechanism will be housed to the east of the 5,075 square-foot convenience store
(General Retail Store) establishment for the purpose of cleaning and waxing of vehicles.
Two parking spaces are reserved for vacuuming of vehicles.
The Minimum Special Use Permit Requirement for this use is the following:
1. Each wash bay shall have a stacking lane that will accommodate at least six
cars.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as a single wash bay will be provided
with a stacking lane that wraps around the proposed convenience store building
and which supports six vehicles in queuing position.
The use can be accessed from any of the driveways on the site; however, vehicles
enter the 12-foot wide wash bay drive-through lane from the west. The drive-through is
SS

adequately screened from the adjacent parking area by landscaping consisting of

shrubs and Mexican fan palms. The wash bay faces Deer Springs Way, which requires
a waiver through the accompanying Site Development Plan Review.
Liquor Establishment (Tavern)
The Liquor Establishment (Tavern) use is defined 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. The
proposed use meets the definition, as the establishment intends to sell alcoholic
beverages for consumption on the premises.
1. 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 City
are best promoted and protected by generally requiring both a minimum
separation between liquor establishments (tavern), and a minimum separation
between a liquor establishment (tavern) and certain other uses that should be
protected from the impacts associated with a liquor establishment (tavern).
Therefore, except as otherwise provided below, no liquor establishment (tavern)
may be located within 1500 feet of any other liquor establishment (tavern),
church/house of worship, school, individual care center licensed for more than 12
children, or City park. (NONWAIVABLE EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW)
The proposed use does not meet this requirement, as there is a high school
located 339 feet southwest of the property. This requirement is waivable under
Special Use Permit Requirement 5e, as the protected use (school) is separated
from the proposed Liquor Establishment (Tavern) by a freeway (Clark County
215).
2. The distance separation referred to in Requirement 1 shall be measured with
reference to the shortest distance between two property lines, one being the
property line of the proposed liquor establishment (tavern) 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 liquor establishment
(tavern). The distance shall be measured in a straight line without regard to
intervening obstacles. (NONWAIVABLE)
Measurement is taken from the boundaries of APN 125-19-301-001, the current
parcel on which the use would be located. Future consolidation of the parcels on
the subject site would not change the separation distance from property line to
property line.
SS

3. 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 liquor establishment (tavern) 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 liquor establishment (tavern) 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
liquor establishment (tavern) will be located;
C. All parking spaces required by this Subchapter 19.12.070 for
the liquor establishment (tavern) use 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 agreement, satisfactory to the City
Attorney, that provides for perpetual, reciprocal cross-access,
ingress and egress throughout the commercial subdivision.
(NONWAIVABLE)
A commercial subdivision map is expected to be recorded that creates a 9.62acre lot by which measurement to protected uses is taken. Future record of
survey lines may be recorded that may or may not capture all measurement
requirements in Subparagraphs A-D.
4. 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.
This requirement does not apply, as neither circumstance applies to the subject
establishment.
SS

5. The distance separation requirement set forth in Requirement 1 may be waived

in accordance with the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C), but only in connection
with a proposed liquor establishment (tavern) that:
a. Will be located on a parcel within the C-V District, the Parkway Center
District within the Downtown Centennial Plan, the Gaming Enterprise
Overlay District, or the Downtown Casino Overlay District;
b. Will be located on a parcel or within a building that, pursuant to State law or
City ordinance, has been designated as an historic property, historic
building, or landmark;
c. Will be located within a regional mall; or
d. Will be located within a mixed-use development
i. That has been approved by means of Special Use Permit pursuant
to LVMC Chapters 19.12 and 19.16;
ii. That has a minimum net site area of 15 acres; and
iii. Whose gross floor area of nonresidential space is a minimum of
250,000 square feet; or
e. Will be separated from the existing use by a street or highway with a
minimum right-of-way width of 100 feet.
This requirement applies, as a waiver of distance separation is necessary. The
protected use (high school) is separated from the proposed Liquor Establishment
(Tavern) by a freeway (Clark County 215).
6. The use shall conform to, and is subject to, the provisions of LVMC Chapters
6.40 and 6.50. (NONWAIVABLE)
The proposed use is required to comply with this requirement as a condition of
approval.
The proposed Tavern would be located in a 4,000 square-foot tenant space at the west
end of the Shops A building. The Tavern would contain two kitchens, a lounge with 22
seats and 15 gaming machines and a dining area with 28 seats. By virtue of the
location of the overall parcels, this use will be located within 1,500 feet of a public high
school to the southwest. The school property is situated on the south side of the Clark
County 215 freeway, 339 feet from the closest point of the subject property. Per Title
19.12.070, the separation requirement is waivable. However, staff does not support the
requested waiver, as it does not support the related Site Development Plan Review.
Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale Establishment
The Beer/Wine/Cooler Off-Sale use is defined by Title 19.18 as an establishment
whose license to sell alcoholic beverages is limited to the sale of beer, wine and coolers
to consumers only and not for resale, in original sealed or corked containers, for
consumption off the premises where the same are sold, and is operated in connection

with a grocery store, drug store, convenience store or specialty merchandise store.
The proposed use meets the definition, as only beer, wine and wine coolers are
proposed to be sold in connection with a convenience store in their original sealed
containers for off-premises consumption. The floor plan indicates that beer, wine and
wine coolers would be located within a bank of coolers along the south side of the store.
1. Except as otherwise provided, no beer/wine/cooler off-sale establishment
(hereinafter establishment) shall be located within 400 feet of any church/house
of worship, school,
individual care center licensed for more than 12 children, or City park.
(NONWAIVABLE EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW)
The proposed use does not meet this requirement, as a public high school is
located 339 feet southwest of the property where 400 feet is required. This
requirement is waivable under Special Use Permit Requirement 7d, as the
protected use (school) is separated from the proposed Beer/Wine/Cooler OffSale Establishment by a minimum 330-foot right-of-way (Clark County 215).
2. Except as otherwise provided in Requirement 3 below, the distances referred to
in Requirement 1 shall be determined with reference to the shortest distance
between two property lines, one being the property line of the proposed
establishment 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 establishment. The distance shall be measured in a
straight line without regard to intervening obstacles.
For purposes of
measurement, the term property line refers to property lines of fee interest
parcels and does not include the property line of:
a. Any leasehold parcel; or
b. Any parcel which lacks access to a public street or has no area for onsite
parking and which has been created so as to avoid the distance limitation
described in Requirement 1. (NONWAIVABLE)
Measurement is taken from the boundaries of APN 125-19-301-001, the current
parcel on which the use would be located. Future consolidation of the parcels on
the subject site would not change the separation distance from property line to
property line.
3. In the case of an establishment proposed to be located on a parcel of at least 80
acres in size, the minimum distances referred to in Requirement 1 shall be
measured in a straight line:
SS

a. From the nearest property line of the existing use to the nearest portion of
the structure in which the establishment will be located, without regard to
intervening obstacles; or
b. In the case of a proposed establishment which will be located within a
shopping center or other multiple tenant structure, from the nearest
property line of the existing use to the nearest property line of a leasehold
or occupancy parcel in which the establishment will be located, without
regard to intervening obstacles. (NONWAIVABLE)
This requirement does not apply, as the parcel is less than 80 acres in size.
4. When considering a Special Use Permit application for an establishment which
also requires a waiver of the distance limitation in Requirement 1, the Planning
Commission shall take into consideration the distance policy and shall, as part of
its recommendation to the City Council, state whether the distance requirement
should be waived and the reasons in support of the decision.
This requirement applies, as a waiver of distance separation is necessary.
5. The minimum distance requirements in Requirement 1 do not apply to:
a. An establishment which has a nonrestricted gaming license in connection
with a hotel having 200 or more guest rooms n or before July 1, 1992 or in
connection with a resort hotel having in excess of 200 guest rooms after
July 1, 1992; or
b. A proposed establishment having more than 50,000 square feet of retail
floor space.
Neither condition above applies to this request; therefore, the minimum distance
requirements apply.
6. All businesses which sell alcoholic beverages shall conform to the provisions of
LVMC Chapter 6.50. (NONWAIVABLE)
The proposed use is required to comply with this requirement as a condition of
approval.
7.
The minimum distance requirements set forth in Requirement 1, which are

otherwise nonwaivable under the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C), may be
waived:
a. In accordance with the provisions of LVMC 19.12.050(C) for any
establishment which is proposed to be located on a parcel within the
Downtown Casino Overlay District;
SS

b. In accordance with the applicable provisions of the Town Center

Development Standards Manual for any establishment which is proposed
to be located within the T-C (Town Center) Zoning District and which is
designated MS-TC (Main Street Mixed Use) in the Town Center Land Use
Plan;
c. In connection with a proposed establishment having between 20,000
square feet and 50,000 square feet of retail floor space, if no more than 10
percent of the retail floor space is regularly devoted to the display or
merchandising of alcoholic beverages; or
d. In connection with a retail establishment having less than 20,000 square
feet of retail floor space, if the area to be used for the sale, display or
merchandising of alcoholic beverages and each use to be protected are
separated by a highway or a right-of-way with a width of at least 100 feet.
This requirement applies, as a waiver of distance separation is necessary. The
protected use (high school) is separated from the proposed Liquor Establishment
(Tavern) by a roadway of at least 100 feet (Clark County 215).
8. No beer/wine/cooler off-sale establishment shall be permitted on or adjacent to
the Pedestrian Mall, as defined in LVMC Chapter 11.68.
This requirement does not apply, as the proposed use would not be located on or
adjacent to the Pedestrian Mall.
Variance and Waivers
The Shops A building is located adjacent to the drainage channel located within the
Clark County 215 right-of-way. The C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning district requires a
20-foot rear yard setback; however, 15 feet is being provided, as according to the
applicant, moving the building an additional five feet to the north would eliminate a row
of parking that is necessary to meet parking requirements. A nine-foot sidewalk abuts
the building on all sides. Staff does not support the variance, as there are no physical
constraints to the property and this building or other planned buildings could be reduced
or otherwise reconfigured on the site to both retain the building and meet parking
requirements.
Title 19.08.040(B)(6) requires buildings on corner lots to be oriented to the setback lines
to form a street edge. The proposed convenience store is designed to be located away
from the corner, with an open fuel canopy occupying the corner. The applicant requests
that a waiver allowing this design be approved for purposes of maintaining visibility and
functionality for the shopping center tenants and customers. As this is the first
development in what is expected to be a large commercial center on vacant land, it sets
a precedent for a similar pattern of future development along Deer Springs Way and
Hualapai Way. As there are no extraordinary circumstances with the land that would
SS

preclude the building from being situated at the corner, staff recommends that the
waiver be denied.
The proposed car wash bay faces Deer Springs Way where bay openings are required
to be oriented away from public rights-of-way per Title 19.08.040(B)(4). The applicant
has requested to waive this standard, as the bay opening would face one of the two
perimeter streets regardless of the design, and would not face any residential uses.
However, if the convenience store and wash bay were rotated 90 degrees, the
orientation would be less likely to negatively impact future residential development
across from this site, given that Hualapai Way will be improved to at least 100 feet in
width. The layout as currently submitted is not sufficiently screened from street views,
as a five-foot landscape buffer is proposed along Deer Springs Way across from the
wash bay. Staff recommends denial of this waiver.
Perimeter landscape buffer widths are substandard along all sides of the development.
The east perimeter is devoid of landscaping in anticipation of a future commercial
development and shared vehicular access between this site and the parcel to the east,
which will be part of the same commercial subdivision. An eight-foot buffer that narrows
down to five feet is proposed to be provided along the south property line adjacent to
the Clark County 215 right-of-way and intervening drainage channel. The applicant
claims that the narrower landscape buffer widths along portions of Deer Springs Way
and Hualapai Way where 15 feet is required are justified, as a detached sidewalk and
additional landscaping will be provided in the amenity zones, and additional right-of-way
is requested for a right turn lane. Staff agrees that the landscaping abutting Clark
County 215 is not visible from the freeway and would serve little purpose, and would
support a waiver of the eight-foot buffer requirement; however, the lack of landscaping
along the east property line is the result of a self-created hardship executed through the
previous request for a two-lot subdivision in which the shopping center will have
perpetual cross access between lots, and there is no basis on which staff can
recommend approval of a waiver. Along public rights-of-way, Title 19 requires 15 feet of
landscaping in addition to streetscape required for shading of sidewalks and protection
of pedestrians and bicyclists.
Other Issues
Hualapai Way is classified as a Primary Arterial street. Complete Streets Standards
require a five-foot sidewalk and a three-foot amenity zone with trees 45 feet on center.
The landscape plan indicates that a five-foot detached sidewalk and 5.5-foot amenity
zone will be provided, with only five-gallon shrubs to be planted. A condition of approval
will require that 24-inch box shade trees be provided within the amenity zone at least 45
feet on center in conformance with Complete Streets Standards.
Deer Springs Way is classified as a Major Collector street. Complete Streets Standards
require a five-foot sidewalk and a three-foot amenity zone with trees 40 feet on center.
SS

The landscape plan indicates that a five-foot detached sidewalk and 3.5-foot amenity
zone will be provided, with only five-gallon shrubs planted. A condition of approval will
require that 24-inch box shade trees be provided within the amenity zone at least 40
feet on center in conformance with Complete Streets Standards.
Additional trees are required within the perimeter landscape buffers. The deficiency is
the result of spacing trees too far apart. Trees must be spaced no further apart than 20
feet along Deer Springs Way and Hualapai Way and 30 feet in the buffer along the
south property line. An Exception from these standards was not requested; therefore, a
condition of approval addresses this deficiency.
Portions of the parking areas directly face Deer Springs Way and Hualapai Way. These
rows of parking must be adequately screened from rights-of-way by a low wall or berm,
low hedge or other screening acceptable to the Department of Planning. The site plan
and/or landscape plan must be revised to indicate how parking will be screened.
Freestanding pylon signs are indicated at the access driveways from the perimeter
streets. A monument sign is also proposed at the corner of Deer Springs Way and
Hualapai Way. Signs will be reviewed for conformance to Title 19 standards under
separate permit.
The development overall is suitable for this site, as it is located at the corner of two
planned major thoroughfares and backs up to a freeway. However, the building
configuration and design elements are conducive only to automobile and truck traffic
and little consideration is given to other modes of transportation. In addition, this project
is projected to strain Hualapai Way beyond traffic handling capacity. As the first
commercial development proposed in this area, the proposal is not the model for the
future pattern of development along these corridors; staff therefore recommends denial
of all applications, with conditions if approved.

No evidence of a unique or extraordinary circumstance has been presented, in that the
applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by situating the proposed Shops A
building in such a way that the other buildings and required parking spaces cannot
otherwise be provided to code standards. Reduction of building size or reconfiguration
of the other buildings and parking area 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.
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 use can be conducted in a harmonious and compatible manner
with the existing and future development within the surrounding area. However, as
staff recommends denial of the companion Site Development Plan Review

The proposed shopping center requires a rear yard setback variance and waivers
of building placement, car wash bay orientation and perimeter landscape buffer
widths, most of which staff cannot support, as there is no sufficient justification
based on the physical characteristics of the land to warrant these deviations.
Parking and uses will be consistent with the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning

Site access will be taken from one driveway from Hualapai Way and two
driveways from Deer Springs Way, designated as a Primary Arterial and Major
Arterial, respectively. Each access will be right-in, right-out. Access is also
proposed at the eastern boundary of the site along Deer Springs Way, to be
shared with a future commercial development. Improvements will be made
pending results of a Traffic Impact Analysis. According to the Department of
Public Works, this project will add approximately 9,637 trips per day on Deer
Springs Way and Hualapai Way. Currently, Deer Springs Way is at about 17
percent of capacity and Hualapai Way is at about 77 percent of capacity. With
this project, Deer Springs Way is expected to be at about 79 percent of capacity
and Hualapai Way to be over capacity.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Variance to allow 11 parking spaces where 22 parking spaces
are required and a Site Development Plan Review for a proposed 6,604 square-foot
Building Maintenance Service and Sales on a vacant property located at 3808 Melody
Lane.
ISSUES
A Variance is required to allow 11 parking spaces where 22 are required. Staff does
not support this request.
Waivers are required to allow the landscape buffers at zero feet along a portion of
the north and the west property lines; and to allow a 10-foot along the east property
line. Staff does not support these requests.
An Exception is required to allow 12 landscape perimeter buffer trees where a total
of 19 trees are required. Staff does not support this request.
An Exception is required to allow no parking lot trees and islands where one tree
and island are required for every six parking spaces. Staff does not support this
request.
ANALYSIS
The proposed development is subject to Title 19 requirements for zoning and design
and is not part of any special plan area. The site falls within the 70-foot radius of the
Airport Overlay District and the height of the proposed structure is well within the height
limitation. The proposed development is subject to the requirements of the C-2
(General Commercial) zoning district.
The proposed 6,604 square-foot building contains three multi-tenant suites intended for
a Building Maintenance Service and Sales use. The proposed development does not
meet Title 19.08.080, Landscape Buffers, and the applicant is requesting Waivers to
allow zero feet along a portion of the perimeter landscape buffers along the north and
west property lines where eight feet is required; and a Waiver to allow 10 feet along the
east property lines where 15 feet is required. In addition, the applicant is requesting
exceptions of the quantity of the landscape materials and the Parking Lot Island and
tree requirements withinthe perimeter landscape buffers provided, the number of threes
RG
VAR-66657 and SDR-66658 [PRJ-66212]

required has been limited to 12 trees where 19 trees are required for the overall
development. The shrubs provided are adequate in quantities for the provide trees for
the site. The primary tree species being utilized are 24 box Shoestring Acacia, 24 box
Mondel Pine and 24 box Chilean Mesquite.
The faade of the building utilizes Concrete Masonry Unit or CMU on all sides. Two
types of CMU for the building faade material that are split face CMU and fluted split
CMU in chocolate and tan colors respectively. The buildings front entrances incorporate
aluminum storefront with dark bronze frame with clear glazing and metal roofing with
colonial red color. In addition, each of the front entrances has a metal roll-up overhead
door in desert tan color. The secondary doors located on the north side of the building
consist of a steel door with dark bronze color.
The subject property has a lot width of approximately 97 feet; C-2 (General
Commercial) standards require a minimum width of 100 feet. The subject property has
been zoned C-2 and pursuant to Title 19.14 is identified as a legal nonconforming
property.
The applicant is requesting a Variance for the required parking. The proposed 6,604
square-foot Building Maintenance Service and Sales Building requires 22 parking
spaces; however, only 11 spaces are provided. The proposed a site has insufficient
parking with a 50% deviation from standard parking requirements. Staff does not
support this request.
The Las Vegas Valley Water District (LVVWD) has provided comment for this parcel
and is located within the LVVWD service area, but is not served by LVVWD. It is served
by the Eastland Water Association, a quasi-municipal well.
The Department of Public Works has provided the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) counts,
for this development will have 282 cars per day on Melody Lane, Primrose Path and
Rancho Drive. Rancho Drive is at 95 percent of capacity. With this development,
Rancho Drive is expected to be at about 96 percent of capacity. However, volumes are
not available for Melody Lane and Primrose Path, but they are believed to be under
capacity. Based on Peak Hour use, this development will add into the area roughly 25
additional cars, or about one every two minutes.
The proposed development does not meet all Title 19 requirements. The proposed
development does not meet the minimum parking requirements and a Variance
application is required in addition to the Site Development Plan Review. A Waiver of
the perimeter landscape buffers is also required. The subject location can be utilized
with a smaller building to meet the parking requirement, staff has determined that the
proposed Variance is self-imposed; therefore, staff recommends denial and the Site
Development Plan Review applications. If these requests are approved, it is subject to
conditions.

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing a 6,604 square-foot
Building Maintenance Service and Sales Building. The proposed building would create
a site with insufficient parking and resulted in a 50% deviation from standard parking
requirements. A smaller building size 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.
1.

The proposed development of the subject site is not consistent with surrounding
development in the area. The applicant proposes 6,604 square-foot building for a
proposed Building Maintenance Service and Sales Building use. The proposed
use would create a site with insufficient parking and result in 50% deviation from
standard parking requirements.
RG
VAR-66657 and SDR-66658 [PRJ-66212]

2.
The proposed landscape buffer is not consistent with Title 19 Landscape
Standards, due to the requested Waivers of the landscape buffer widths and
Exceptions of the landscape material and landscape island. The proposed
development requires 22 parking spaces and a Variance application to allow 11
parking spaces is required for the approval of the Site Development Plan Review;
staff recommends denial.
3.

Site access will be at Melody Lane, which is considered under capacity for traffic
conveyance. Circulation is logical and will not cause traffic conflicts on site or in
the area.
4.
City;
The building materials are appropriate for the area and the site will incorporate
drought tolerant landscape materials.
5.

The design characteristics of the proposed building elevations are not unsightly
and are compatible with development in the area. The proposed materials are
suitable for the surrounding uses.
6.
Site Development is subject to permits, licensing and inspection, thereby
safeguarding the public health, safety and general welfare.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a proposed home addition that will result
in a three-foot side yard setback where five feet is the minimum required in the R-1
(Single Family Residential) zoning district at 4609 Del Monte Avenue.
ISSUES
The R-1 zoning district requires principal buildings to have a minimum side yard
setback of five feet. The applicant is proposing a three-foot side yard setback for a
proposed home addition.
ANALYSIS
Per the submitted site plan, the addition will be used for a second kitchen and utility
room. According to Title 19, an auxiliary kitchen is permissible and defined as a
second kitchen in a single family detached dwelling that is:
1. Intended solely for use by members of the household for private dinner parties or
social gatherings; and
2. Not located within an accessory structure and is directly accessible from the rest
of the dwelling.
The proposed home addition will meet these requirements, as the owner has stated that
the second kitchen will be kosher and used for holidays and family gatherings. The
submitted floor plan also shows that the proposed second kitchen will be directly
accessible from the rest of the principal dwelling. The subject site is zoned R-1 (Single
Family Residential), which requires a five-foot side yard setback. The applicant is
requesting a side yard setback of three feet for the proposed home addition. The R-1
zoning district also allows a maximum lot coverage of 50 percent. With the proposed
311 square-foot addition, the total coverage will be 30 percent.
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 its home addition with a
three-foot side yard setback.
CS
VAR-66689 [PRJ-66548]
order to:
1.
2.
3.


applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing to construct an addition that
does not meet the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning district standards.
Reconfiguring the placement of the proposed home addition 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.
A residential building permit (Permit #22008) was issued for a new
10/18/63
single family dwelling.

The Planning Commission voted (4-0) to hold VAR-66689 in abeyance

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit with a waiver to allow a Short-Term
Residential Rental use at 1612 South 6th Street.
ISSUES
A Short-Term Residential Rental use is permitted in the R-1 (Single Family

Residential) zoning district as a Conditional Use. However, since the subject site is
located within 241 feet of a similar use, a Special Use Permit and distance
separation waiver are required.
Staff recommends denial of this request as the applicant cannot meet Title 19
requirements.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is proposing to utilize their single family dwelling as a Short-Term
Residential use at 1612 South 6th Street. While the use is allowed as a Conditional Use
in the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning district, a Special Use Permit and waiver
are required since the subject site is located within 241 feet of a similar use. The subject
site is also located within the John S. Park Historic Neighborhood Special Area. The
proposed Short-Term Residential use is not compatible with the neighborhood goal of
preventing properties currently zoned for single-family residential use from being
converted to commercial use.
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. The
proposed use meets this definition as the applicant intends to rent out their single-family
dwelling for short-term use.
1. The operator must obtain a business license to operate the use.
CS
SUP-66806 [PRJ-66759]
If this Special Use Permit is approved, the applicant will be required to obtain a
business license.
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.
If a business license is issued for the Short-Term Residential Rental use, it will
be subject to license renewal and annual compliance review to ensure that all
regulatory requirements are being met.
3. The use must comply with the Citys noise regulations as they apply to residential
uses.
If this use violates the Citys noise regulations, neighbors or members of the
public can file a complaint to the Code Enforcement Division, which could result
in a fine.
4. 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.
If the parking regulations are violated or any traffic obstruction to other
properties, the public can either call the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police
Department or the Business License Division for non-compliance of business
license requirements.
5. In addition to and independent of any enforcement authority or remedy described
in this Title, the failure to comply with a Minimum Special Use Permit
Requirement or other condition of approval associated with this use may be
enforced as in the case of a violation of Title 6 by means of a civil proceeding
pursuant to LVMC 6.02.400 to 6.02.460, inclusive.
If approved, this application will be subject to annual review for compliance of the
special use permit by the Department of Planning.
6. The use may not be located closer than 660 feet to any other Short-Term
Residential Rental use (measured from property line to property line).
CS
SUP-66806 [PRJ-66759]
The subject property is within 241 feet from another Short-Term Residential
Rental use. This Special Use Permit application is accompanied with a request
for a waiver of the distance separation.
7. The maximum occupancy of the residential dwelling unit shall not exceed the
limits provided for in LVMC 6.75.090.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant has proposed a commercial development consisting of a Convenience
Store with Fuel Pumps and a Canopy; a Full Service Car Wash Facility; a General
Retail Store; a Coffee Shop with Drive-Through; a Restaurant with Drive-Through; and a
699-unit Mini-Storage Facility on 5.19 acres at the northeast corner of Deer Springs
Way and Hualapai Way.
ISSUES
A Car Wash, Full Service or Auto Detailing use is only permitted in the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district with an approved Special Use Permit. Staff recommends
denial.
A Mini-Storage Facility use is only permitted in the C-1 (Limited Commercial) zoning
district with an approved Special Use Permit. Staff recommends denial.
A Variance is required to allow the proposed Mini-Storage Facility to have a 35-foot
setback where 51 feet is required along a portion of the North property line for
Residential Adjacency Standards. Staff recommends denial.
A Waiver is required to allow the car wash bay to face the public right-of-way where
such is not allowed. Staff recommends denial.
A Waiver is required to not orient the proposed buildings to the corner and street
fronts where such is required. Staff recommends denial.
A Waiver is required to allow a 10-foot landscape buffer along the south and west
property line where 15 feet is required. Staff recommends denial.
ANALYSIS & FINDINGS

Convenience Store with Fuel Pumps, Canopy, and Full Service Car Wash:
Proposed for the southwest corner of the subject site is a 3,868 square-foot
Convenience Store with a 4,212 square-foot Fuel Pump Canopy. Adjacent to the
proposed Convenience Store on the north side is a proposed Full Service Car Wash.
Title 19.08 requires service bays not to face the public right-of-way. The positioning of
the Car Wash facility allows the car wash bay to face Hualapai Way. While the applicant
widened the landscape island directly adjacent to the south of the exit of the car wash
bay, it does not screen the car wash bay from Hualapai Way. A more effective solution
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
would have been to widen the landscape buffer directly in front of the car wash bay. The
applicant has requested a Waiver to allow the car wash bay to face the public right-ofway; staff does not support this Waiver. In addition, Title 19.08 also requires buildings
on corner lots to be oriented to the corner and street fronts, and should make a strong
tie to the building lines of each street unless the applicant can demonstrate by
substantial and convincing evidence that to do so would be infeasible. The proposed
location of the Convenience Store, Fuel Pump Canopy, and Full Service Car Wash on
the subject site is preferential in nature and the applicant has presented no evidence
that complying with Title 19.08 is infeasible. Staff does not support this Waiver request.
Special Use Permit:
The Car Wash, Full Service or Auto Detailing use is defined as an establishment
that provides for the washing, cleaning, waxing or detailing of passenger
vehicles, either by means of employees or by means of automated or semiautomated methods of cleaning, or by a combination thereof.
Requirement 1:
Each wash bay shall have a stacking lane that will

accommodate at least 6 cars.
The proposed use meets this requirement as the proposed
stacking lane is able to accommodate six vehicles.
FINDINGS (SUP-67486) Car Wash, Full Service or Auto Detailing

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 use cannot be conducted in a manner that is harmonious
and/or compatible with the existing adjacent residential neighborhood to the north,
and future residential homes to the east. A full service car wash facility produces
noise levels higher than what is typically found in a commercial development that
offers retail and office type land uses only. This excessive noise will be disruptive
to the existing adjacent residences and their inhabitants.
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
2.
proposed.
The subject site is directly adjacent to existing residential neighborhoods on the
north side, and the east side of the subject site is planned for future low density
residential. The intense land uses proposed such as a full service car wash and a
storage facility are inappropriate land uses for residential adjacency.
3.

In a study prepared by the Department of Public Works, Traffic Division, if
constructed Deer Springs Way would be at 49 percent capacity and Hualapai Way
would be at 92 percent capacity. Both roadways are adequate in size for the
proposed land uses.
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.
Approving a Special Use Permit application for a Full Service Car Wash on a lot
adjacent to single family residential homes does not support the overall objectives
of the General Plan. The proposed site is not appropriate for such an intense use
as it is directly adjacent to single family residential homes to the north, and future
planned single family residential homes to the east. Approval of this Special Use
permit application would be inconsistent with the objectives of the General Plan.
5.
The proposed Full Service Car Wash facility does meet the minimum Special Use
Permit requirement by providing a stacking lane for six vehicles.
Coffee Shop with Drive Through, Restaurant with Drive Through, and Retail Store:
As part of the overall development, the applicant has proposed to construct along the
western perimeter adjacent to Hualapai a 3,332 square-foot structure with the intentions
of leasing 1,112 square feet of the structure for a retail store type land use (General
Retail Store, Other Than Listed), and the remaining 2,220 square feet of the structure to
be leased to coffee shop type land use (Restaurant). The Restaurant portion of this
structure will also provide a drive through lane for the customers of the restaurant. Also
along Hualapai Way, in the far northwest corner of the subject site, the applicant has
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
proposed to construct another Restaurant with Drive Through. This stand-alone

restaurant will be 2,061 square feet, with no adjacent retail space for lease. Both
restaurants provide a stacking lane capable of accommodating six vehicles as required
by Title 19.12. The restaurant located on the far northwest corner of the subject site
demonstrates six vehicles stacked in the drive through lane, but the service
window/station does not accommodate stacking for six vehicles. A Condition of
Approval has been added to address this conflict by clearly denoting the service
window/station on the west faade of the building.
Both of these structures require a Waiver to not orient the buildings to the street fronts.
The proposed site plan has the drive through lanes oriented to the street fronts. Staff
does not support this request. In addition, staff finds a drive through window located
approximately 90 feet from the rear property line of a single family residential home to
not be harmonious or compatible with the existing residential neighborhood.
Mini-Storage Facility:
Along the east perimeter of the subject site, the applicant has proposed a 93,876
square-foot Storage Facility. The proposed Storage Facility provides 699 leasable
storage units, a reception area with office and public restrooms, and living quarters for
on-site management to reside. The Storage Facility will also offer Rental Trucks.
Special Use Permit
The Mini-Storage Facility use is defined as a facility with enclosed storage
space, divided into separate compartments no larger than 500 square feet in
size, which is provided for use by individuals to store personal items or by
businesses to store materials for operation of a business establishment.
Requirement 1:
No more than one managers security residence shall be

permitted.
The proposed floor plan demonstrates a one-bedroom,
single-story living quarters located on the first floor of the
facility, adjacent to the office and reception area.
Requirement 2:
All storage shall be within an enclosed building except for

the storage of recreational vehicles, which shall be
completely screened from view from surrounding properties
and abutting streets.
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
The proposed use meets this requirement as the proposed

Mini-Storage Facility does not provide outdoor storage.
Requirement 3:
The following activities are prohibited on or from the

premises of a mini-storage facility:
a.
The conducting of a business (other than the ministorage business itself and permitted accessory
uses);
b.
The retail sale of stored items;
c.
The commercial repair of motor vehicles, boats,
trailers
and other like vehicles;
d.
The operation of spray-painting equipment, power
tools, welding equipment or other similar equipment;
e.
The production, fabrication or assembly of products.
The proposed use meets this requirement as none of these
activities have been proposed, and the proposed MiniStorage Facility will be subject to regular business license
inspections.
Requirement 4:
The rental of single unit trucks and small utility trailers shall
be permitted as an accessory use to a mini-storage facility,
provided the business is conducted out of the same office as
that of the mini-storage facility. No trucks or trailers shall be
displayed in public view, and the combined total of all trucks
and trailers stored on site shall not exceed a ratio of 2 trucks
or trailers for each 100 storage units.
The applicant has proposed to provide five vehicles available
for rent. The rental of these vehicles will occur out of the
same office as the storage units, and are not displayed in
public view.
Requirement 5:
Truck and trailer storage shall be screened from streets and

adjacent properties.
The five vehicles available for rent are proposed to be
parked along the eastern perimeter of the subject site behind
the security gate for the proposed Storage Facility. The
rental trucks are screened from the street and the adjacent
residential property by landscaping on both the south and
east sides of the rental truck parking, as well as a solid sixfoot screen wall.
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
Requirement 6:
When adjacent to a residential use, the exterior wall of the

mini-storage shall be constructed of decorative block.
The applicant has proposed decorative split face CMU
(Concrete Masonry Unit), for the facades of the Mini-Storage
Facility meeting this requirement.
FINDINGS (SUP-67487) Mini-Storage Facility

1.

The proposed land use cannot be conducted in a manner that is harmonious
and/or compatible with the existing adjacent residential neighborhood to the north.
The proposed Mini-Storage Facility requires a Variance to allow the two-story
structure to be 35 feet away from the property line of the existing residential
homes to the north. 35 feet does not provide these existing residences enough of
a buffer from the noise, lighting, and traffic normally associated with a MiniStorage Facility. The proposed land use is not capable of being conducted in a
manner that is harmonious and/or compatible with the existing surrounding
residential land uses.
2.
proposed.
The subject site is adjacent to existing single family residential homes to the north,
and planned single family residential homes to the east. The applicant has
proposed to construct the 93,876 square-foot Mini-Storage Facility directly
adjacent to the future residential development on the east and the existing single
family residential homes on the north. The proposed storage facility does not meet
the minimum setback requirements for Residential Adjacency along the north
perimeter. Residential Adjacency Standards require the proposed facility to be
located 51 feet away from the north property line. The applicant has only provided
a 35-foot setback. While the applicant has proposed to reduce the grade of the
subject site, a reduction in the grade level does not minimize the direct effect of a
storage facility 35 feet away from a residential home. The existing residents to the
north will be subject to noise, traffic, trash, and lighting invading their residential
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
properties. The subject site is not suitable for the type and intensity of the land
use proposed.
3.

In a study prepared by the Department of Public Works, Traffic Division, if
constructed Deer Springs Way would be at 49 percent capacity and Hualapai Way
would be at 92 percent capacity. Both roadways are adequate in size for the
proposed land uses.
4.
Approving a Special Use Permit that allows a concentrated and intense land use
in a two-story structure that is not able to meet the minimum Residential
Adjacency Setback standards does not support the overall objectives of the
General plan. The proposed land use and structure are inconsistent with the
overall objectives of the General Plan and are not compatible with the immediate
surrounding area.
5.
The proposed Mini-Storage Facility has met the minimum Special Use Permit
requirements set forth by Title 19.12.
Variance (VAR-67706)
The applicant has requested a Variance from the minimum Residential Adjacency
Standards to allow a 35-foot, 10-inch setback along the north property line where a 50foot, 10-inch setback is the minimum required for a 16-foot, 10-inch tall structure (MiniStorage Facility). Staff finds the proposed two-story Mini-Storage Facility to not be a
harmonious or compatible use to be located adjacent to existing and future single family
homes. Proposing to locate the Mini-Storage Facility 35 feet from the property line
intensifies the already intense land use and does not support the overall general welfare
of the existing residents as required by the General Plan. Staff finds the applicant has
proposed to overdevelop the subject site as evidenced by the need for this Residential
Adjacency Setback Variance and does not support this request.
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
Request to Vacate (VAC-67470):

Staff has no objection to the vacation application request to relinquish the City's
interests in U.S. Government Patent Reservations generally located at the northeast
corner of Deer Springs Way and Hualapai Way. 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.
Tentative Map (TMP-67469):
Staff notes that elevations for the north/south and east/west cross sections are shown
with this Tentative Map submittal but no retaining walls are proposed. The north/south
cross section shows an average slope of less than 2% while the east/west cross section
shows an average slope greater than 2%.
Landscaping:
In an effort to reduce the noise and lighting impact on the adjacent residential properties
to the north and south of the subject site, the applicant has proposed to plant trees
every 10 feet on-center instead of 20 feet on-center as required by Title 19.08. Staff
raised concern of the ability for a tree that has the potential to have a 15 to 30-foot tree
canopy to not only thrive, but survive if planted only ten feet apart. On the advice of
staff, the applicant agreed to propose Texas Mountain Laurel (Sophora Secundiflora)
trees along the north and east property lines. The Texas Mountain Laurel tree can each
heights up to 35 feet, and has a ten-foot canopy. This allows for the tree to reach
maximum size without overcrowding. The Texas Mountain Laurel tree also tolerates full
to partial sun and has a high heat tolerance.
In order to accommodate right-of-way requirements set forth by the Department of
Public Works, the applicant has requested a Waiver to allow a 10-foot landscape buffer
along the south and west property lines where 15 feet is required when adjacent to
public right-of-way. The overall site has been overdeveloped and is capable of being
designed in accordance with all development requirements set forth by Title 19.08, and
staff does not support this Waiver request.
Complete Streets:
As stated by Title 19.04.010, all proposed development shall be designed in a manner
that provides for and facilitates the logical overall design, placement and continuity of
streets with respect to adjacent land parcels, and in accordance with this Title, the Citys
Master Plan of Streets and Highways and LVMC Title 13. Additionally, Where a
proposed development is adjacent to existing improvements, the Director of Public
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
Works shall determine the extent to which it is appropriate to implement the standards
outlined in this Chapter and approve, if necessary, designs for the transition from
existing improvements to those that meet the standards of this Chapter.
The proposed development is directly adjacent to existing improvements on Hualapai
Way, with improvements in existence approximately 675 feet east of the subject site on
Deer Springs Way. The Department of Public Works has Waived the requirements set
forth by Title 19.04 for Complete Streets, and has determined a continuation of the
existing improvements to be required for this proposed development on the northeast
corner of Deer Springs Way and Hualapai Way.
Traffic:
In a report prepared by the Department of Public Works Traffic Division, it was
estimated that the proposed project would add approximately 4,852 trips per day on
Deer Springs Way and Hualapai Way. Deer Springs Way is estimated to be at
approximately 17 percent of capacity, with Hualapai Way estimated at approximately is
77 percent of capacity. Once the proposed project is completed, Deer Springs Way
would be at approximately 49 percent of capacity, with Hualapai Way estimated to be at
approximately 92 percent of capacity.
Based on Peak Hour use, this development will add into the area roughly 397 additional
vehicles, or about thirteen vehicles every two minutes.
1.

The proposed development is not compatible with the existing single family
homes located directly north of the subject site. In addition, the vacant lot located
east of the subject is planned for more detached single family homes. The land
uses proposed are too intense for Residential Adjacency, and the site is
overdeveloped as evidenced by the Variance and Waiver requests.
2.
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
The proposed development is not consistent with Title 19 requirements for

Residential Adjacency and Landscape Buffer requirements. Additionally, in order
to meet parking requirements set forth by Title 19.12, the applicant has requested
an Exception to allow a reduction in the required amount of parking lot islands and
required parking lot trees.
3.

Site access is provided by a single driveway off of Deer Springs Way, and two
driveways off of Hualapai Way. In a study prepared by the Department of Public
Works, Traffic Division, if constructed Deer Springs Way would be at 49 percent
capacity and Hualapai Way would be at 92 percent capacity. Both roadways are
adequate in size for the proposed development and will not be negatively
impacted by the proposed development.
4.
City;
The building materials include decorative split face CMU (Concrete Masonry Unit)
for the Mini-Storage Facility, and fiber cement board and stucco for the remaining
structures on the site. Building accents include brick veneer, metal paneling and
awnings, and stone cladding. Landscape materials include Blue Palo Verde and
Chilean Mesquite trees with Trailing Lantana and Golden Sage as accent
shrubbery. Both the building and landscape materials proposed are appropriate
for the area and a desert climate.
5.

The proposed building elevations and design characteristics are not unsightly or
undesirable, but are not harmonious and/or compatible with the existing
residential development in the area. The proposed Mini-Storage requires a
Variance from the minimum Residential Adjacency Standards, and a Waiver is
required to reduce the landscape buffers adjacent to the public right-of-way from
15 feet to ten feet which reduces the effect of an aesthetically pleasing
environment. The proposed development is concentrated onto the subject five
acre site, and is too intense for the surrounding residential development.
NE

TMP-67469 [PRJ-67468]
6.
Development of the site is subject to all applicable codes, permitting and
inspections, thereby securing the public health, safety and general welfare.
Staff finds the applicant has proposed to overdevelop the subject site with land uses
that are too intense for the subject site as evidenced by the need for a Residential
Adjacency Variance, a Waiver to allow for a reduction in the required landscape buffers
along the south and west perimeter, and Exceptions to allow for a reduced number of
parking lot islands and trees. The site is simply not large enough to accommodate the
structures and land uses the applicant has proposed in accordance with Title 19. The
proposed development does not support the overall goals set forth by the General Plan,
and would directly and negatively affect the adjacent single family homes to the north of
the subject site. For these reasons, staff is recommending denial of all associated
applications.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a Manufacturing, Heavy facility for the manufacture, storage and
distribution of distilled spirits located at the terminus of Mesquite Avenue, approximately
880 feet east of City Parkway. The site will be constructed in phases, and it is
anticipated that other onsite uses will include retail, office, exhibit space, and a banquet
facility.
ISSUES
The applicant has requested a Variance to allow an unpaved parking lot where Title
19.08 requires that all parking areas be paved. Staff recommends denial of the
request.
The subject site will be constructed in three phases, with the development in the first
two phases used primarily for the distillery operation. The proposed retail, office,
exhibit space, and banquet facility uses will be added with the third phase. Staff
recommends denial of the Site Development Plan review request; however, if the
parking areas were paved, staff would have recommend approval of the request.
The subject site is bisected by a Union Pacific railroad spur immediately to the north
of the proposed development. The eastern property line of the site abuts the
primary Union Pacific rail line.
Perimeter landscape waivers to allow a reduction of perimeter landscaping has been
requested and staff recommends approval due to the industrial nature of the area.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is located on an M (Industrial) zoned parcel and is located within the
City of Las Vegas Redevelopment area. The site is currently undeveloped and the site
is bisected by a Union Pacific railroad spur line. The spur effectively separates the
proposed improvements with the northern half of the site adjacent to Bonanza Road.
Site access is provided via a drive from Mesquite Avenue, and a portion of the site
extends south under the US 95 freeway.
The site will consist of four buildings which will be constructed in three phases. The
improvements associated with the first two phases will be used primary for the storage,
manufacture and distribution of distilled spirits, and the final phase will consist of areas
to be used for retail, exhibit areas, office space, and special events.
FS
VAR-67735 and SDR-67419 [PRJ-67417]

Building A will be constructed with the first phase and consists of 4,650 square feet of
warehouse space. Also included with the first phase will be an entryway feature, the
front perimeter landscape buffer, a fire lane, three permanent parking spaces, three
temporary parking spaces, and a loading zone.
The elevations depict Building A as being built from metal siding with a galvanized
finish metal roof. The building is 15 feet tall to the base of the roof, where it pitches to a
height of 25 feet. There is a portion of the roof that rises to 35 feet where it is
anticipated that a sign will be installed. The proposed gated entryway feature consists
of a steel trellis arching 14 feet over the entryway drive. The trellis will be attached with
steel pipes rising from a stone base on either side of the drive. The entryway will be
gated.
The second phase will consist of Building B along with four additional temporary
parking spaces. The 5,100 square-foot building will consist of 4,800 square feet of
heavy manufacturing space, and 300 square feet of office space. The heavy
manufacturing portion of the building will be used for distillery operations. Additional
interior landscaping will be installed adjacent to buildings A and B during this phase.
Elevations for Building B depict a 30-foot tall building constructed with corrugated
metal and stone veneer accents.
The third and final phase consists of Buildings C, D and the remainder of the onsite
parking and landscaping. Building C has 8,500 square feet of floor area consisting of
2,900 square feet of heavy manufacturing space, 3,600 square feet of exhibit space,
and 800 square feet of office space. Building D is 1,200 square feet and will be used
as a storage area and for restroom facilities. 3,200 square feet of outdoor courtyard
area will be utilized as a banquet facility for weddings and other special events. An
accessory concert stage is located adjacent to building D.
The seven temporary parking spaces installed with phases one and two will be removed
with the third phase, and a 66 space parking lot, including an additional loading zone,
will be added to the site near the rear property line. The parking lot raises the overall
parking count to 69, which meets the minimum required for the proposed onsite uses.
There are 19 proposed compact spaces, which is within the allowable amount of 30
percent of the overall total. An exception has been requested to allow zero parking lot
landscape islands where 12 are required. Due to the industrial nature of the site, and
the fact that portions of the parking lot extend underneath the US 95 overpass, staff
recommends approval of the exception.
Title 19.08.110 states that all parking and vehicle storage areas shall occur on paved
areas. The site plan indicates that handicapped parking spaces and the fire lane will be
paved in accordance with applicable zoning and fire codes. A note regarding the
remainder of the parking area indicates that there will be an alternative design without
FS
VAR-67735 and SDR-67419 [PRJ-67417]

the required surface paving. The Applicant has requested a Variance to allow an
unpaved parking lot for all areas excluding the fire lane and handicapped spaces. Staff
strongly discourages unpaved parking lots and recommends denial of the Variance
request. Unpaved lots generally cannot be striped, which reduces safety due to the lack
of defined parking and travel lanes for the motorists and pedestrians navigating the
parking lot. Unpaved parking areas exacerbate air quality issues, and without dust
control mitigation, unpaved parking lots can contribute to poor regional air quality. A
condition of approval has been added to ensure that the proper air quality measures are
taken through compliance with the Clark County Department of Air Quality and
Environmental Management regulations. Finally, unpaved, unstriped lots make it difficult
to precisely measure onsite parking in order to ensure zoning code compliance.
The landscape plan for the final phase indicates the addition of a number of trees within
the interior of the property, and four perimeter trees along portions of the rear property
line. A four-foot perimeter buffer area planted with shrubs will be installed along
portions of the southern property line. Because the site is zoned M (Industrial) and has
a zero-foot rear-yard building setback, there is no required landscape buffer area along
the rear property line. The applicant is requesting waivers to allow a reduction of
perimeter landscaping to allow a zero-foot perimeter buffer area along the north and
south property lines where eight feet is required, and to allow 10 perimeter trees where
45 are required. The site is located in an industrial zone adjacent to the Union Pacific
railroad, as well as a spur line that essentially divides the parcel in half. The site is also
in close proximity to a US 95 overpass and a towing and impound yard. Due to physical
site constraints and the location of the subject site within an industrial area, it has been
determined that a reduction of perimeter landscaping is justified, and therefore staff
recommends approval of the requested landscape waivers.
The building elevations depict Building C as metal and stucco building with stone
veneer accents. The building has multiple pitched roofs with a maximum roof height of
38 feet. Extending from the roof is a 55-foot architectural feature that is cylindrical in
shape with a coned top. Building D is will be constructed from metal sliding with a
slanted 24-foot tall roof.

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by choosing to not pave the proposed
parking lot. The request to not pave the parking areas exacerbates air quality issues
and can present a hazard to motorists utilizing the lot. Parking area paving 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.
1.

The proposed Manufacturing, Heavy use is located within an Industrial zoning
district and is therefore compatible with adjacent development and development in
the area.
2.
The development proposes unpaved parking lots, which is contrary to Title 19.08
parking area design standards. A Variance has been requested to provide relief
from parking area paving requirements. As such, this project is not consistent
with zoning code minimum standards.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a proposed casita to be located in the
rear yard of a single-family residential lot located at 7055 Del Rey Avenue.
ISSUES
The Variance request is to allow a proposed Accessory Structure (Class II) [Casita]
five feet from the side and rear property line where 10 feet is required in the R-E
(Residence Estates) zoning district. Relocating the structure to 10 feet from side
and rear property line is achievable and no evidence of unique circumstances has
been presented. Staff recommends denial.
ANALYSIS
The property at 7055 Del Rey Avenue is located in an R-E (Residence Estates) zoning
district and is subject to the requirements of Title 19.06 standards. The subject property
contains a single-family residence and is located within the Rural Preservation Overlay
District. The proposed accessory structure will not have an impact on the Rural
Preservation Overlay District.
The proposed accessory structure will be located at the southwest corner of the subject
property with a side and rear yard setback of five feet from the west and south property
lines. The distance between the principal structure and the accessory structure is
greater than six feet as required by code. The proposed structure will serve as a living
space on the subject property. The proposed accessory structures exterior will be
stucco and the color will match the primary dwelling.
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a proposed Accessory Structure (Class
II) [Casita] to be five feet from the side and rear property line. Pursuant to Title 19.06 RE (Residence Estates) standards, accessory structure placement must be at least 10
feet from the property line. The subject property is not an irregularly shaped lot and has
sufficient space to accommodate an accessory structure that can meet Title 19
requirements. Unique or extraordinary circumstances have not been presented with
this Variance request; therefore, staff recommends denial. If this application is
approved, it is subject to conditions.

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing an accessory structure
within the required side and rear yard setbacks. The subject property is not an irregular
shaped lot and has sufficient space to accommodate an accessory structure that can
meet 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.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow an existing garage to be expanded into
the required side yard setback area located at 1830 Terra Vista Way.
ISSUES
The request for Variance is to allow the proposed expansion of an existing

Accessory Structure [Garage] five feet from the side property line where 10 feet is
required in the R-E (Residence Estates) zoning district. Redesigning the garage
expansion to meet the minimum 10-foot setback from the side property line is
achievable and no evidence of unique circumstances has been presented. Staff

ANALYSIS
The property is located in an R-E (Residence Estates) zoning district and is subject to
the requirements of Title 19.06 standards. The subject property contains a single-family

expansion of the existing accessory structure will not have an impact on the Rural
Preservation Overlay District.
The existing accessory structure is located at the northwest corner of the subject
property with an existing setback of five feet from the west property line and is a legally
nonconforming structure pursuant to Title 19.14. The existing setback from the north
property line is 17 feet. The proposed expansion will have a side yard setback of five
feet from the north property line. The property is an irregular shaped lot and the

as extra space to store vehicles for the applicant on the property. The existing
structures exterior is brick veneer and the proposed addition will utilize the same
building material to match the existing dwelling.
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow the expansion of an existing Accessory

applicant has created a self-imposed hardship by proposing the expansion of an
existing accessory structure encroaching within the required side yard setback. The
subject property has sufficient space to accommodate an expansion of the accessory

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

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow an existing shed and garage to be
located in a required setback area, with the garage located too close to the residence at
3725 Glen Ridge Way.
ISSUES
The R-D (Single Family Residential-Restricted) zoning district requires accessory

structures to have a minimum side yard setback of 10 feet and a six-foot minimum
distance separation from the main building on the subject site.
The applicant is proposing to allow two existing accessory structures (Class II) [shed
and garage] with a two-foot side yard setback and an accessory structure (Class II)
[garage] with a five-foot distance separation from the principal dwelling.
ANALYSIS
The existing accessory structures [shed and garage] are located in the rear of the
subject property. Title 19.06 requires that accessory structures be aesthetically
compatible with the principle dwelling unit. Per the submitted justification letter, the
accessory structures will be compatible as they will be painted the same color (ivory) of
the principle dwelling and made of the same stucco material. Title 19.06 also stipulates
that accessory structures not exceed 50 percent of the lot coverage of the rear and side
yard areas. Including the two existing accessory structures, the subject site will fall
under the threshold at 22 percent. The subject site is located within the Rural
Preservation Overlay District. The intent of the Rural Preservation District is to ensure
that the rural character of each rural preservation neighborhood is preserved. The
applicants request will not negatively affect the chief goal of this overlay district.
The Public Works Department has requested that the applicant meet with the Flood
Control Section of the Department of Public Works for assistance with establishing
finished floor elevations and drainage paths for the subject site. A condition of approval
has been added to address this issue. 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 keep their two existing accessory structures in their current location.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Variance to allow a proposed detached patio cover that
does not meet the minimum rear yard setback and minimum distance separation
requirement from the principal dwelling at 5854 Del Rey Avenue.
ISSUES
The U (Undeveloped) zoning district requires an accessory structure (Class II)

[detached patio cover] to have a minimum rear yard setback of 10 feet and a
minimum distance separation of six feet from the main building on the subject site.
The applicant is proposing a five-foot rear yard setback and a five foot distance
separation from the main building.
ANALYSIS
The applicant has proposed to construct a 252 square-foot accessory structure (Class
II) [detached patio cover] with a rear yard setback of five feet and a five-foot distance
separation from the principal dwelling. The subject site is located within the U
(Undeveloped) zoning district. This district requires a minimum rear yard setback of 10
feet and a minimum six-foot distance separation from the main building. Per Title 19.06,
accessory structures in the Undeveloped Zoning District are not allowed to exceed 50
percent of the rear and side yard areas as it pertains to size and coverage. With the
proposed accessory structure, the applicant will have a rear yard lot coverage of 18
percent. No substantial evidence has been presented to warrant the requested
Variance. Alternatively, the applicant could redesign or rearrange the proposed patio
cover in order to meet Title 19 requirements.
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 their accessory structure
with a five-foot rear yard setback and a five-foot distance separation from the principal
dwelling.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Waiver to allow no streetlights to be installed along Leon Avenue
adjacent to the eastern perimeter of a 17.08 acre parcel of land located on the
northwest corner of Leon Avenue and Alexander Road.
ISSUES
A Site Development Plan Review (SDR-65912) was previously approved by the City
Council on 10/05/16 to construct a 58,745 square-foot primary and secondary school
use on a 7.44 acre portion of the 17.08 acre subject site
An associated Variance (VAR-66310) application was previously approved by the
City Council on 10/05/16 which allowed a deviation from Complete Streets
Standards to provide a horse trail in place of a sidewalk adjacent to Leon Avenue.
ANALYSIS
On 10/05/16 the City Council approved Site Development Plan Review (SDR-65912) to
construct a 58,745 square-foot primary and secondary school use on a 7.44 acre
portion of the 17.08 acre subject site. The applicant has request a Waiver to allow no
streetlights to be installed along Leon Avenue adjacent to the subject site.
When a site is developed in the City of Las Vegas, it is customary to require the
installation of all incomplete improvements surrounding the site so they match what
exists in the surrounding area. Streetlights exist on the south side of Alexander Road
and will exist on the north side of Alexander Road when this school site develops.
Although streetlights are not customary on Leon Avenue, the Citys staff encourages full
installation of complete streets throughout the City. Staff does not support these request
and recommends denial with conditions.
FINDINGS (WVR-67370)
No substantial evidence has been presented to warrant the requested Waivers of Title
19.02.240 and 19.01.140.A to allow no streetlights where such are required along Leon
Avenue. Staff recommends denial of the request with conditions.

ANALYSIS
The request is for a Special Use Permit and a Site Development Plan Review for a
proposed four story, 140-unit Hotel Residence at 810 South Decatur Boulevard. The
site is zoned C-2 (General Commercial) and is currently developed with an operating
Motor Vehicle Sales (Used) facility. The site is located within the Las Vegas
Redevelopment Area and the 175-foot Airport Overlay District. The site is adjacent to
an R-1 (Single-family Residential) zoned parcel to the south; however, the site is utilized
as a church, which is a non-residential use. As such, residential adjacency standards
do not apply to the subject property. The site receives access via two drives from
Decatur Boulevard, and the proposed four story building is located generally at the
center of the subject site. Surrounding the building, 140 parking spaces are provided
where 140 are required, and 30 percent of spaces are classified as compact.
The building elevations depict a four-story hotel building constructed of stucco with
brown foam molding, stucco pop-out trim, and a shingle roof. A porte-cochere will be
located in front of the building directly over a portion of the parking area. A pool and
deck area will be integrated onto the roof of the porte-cochere for use by hotel guests.
Each unit will have a wall mounted air conditioning unit that will be recessed into the
building and will be visually nonintrusive. Rooftop mechanical equipment, if installed,
will be required to be screened from view.
FS
SUP-67136 and SDR-67137 [PRJ-67134]

The landscape plan depicts the required perimeter landscape buffer widths along the
front and rear property lines. These buffer areas are planted with the required 24-inch
box trees every 20 feet on-center. The front-yard perimeter landscaping enhances the
street front along Decatur Boulevard in an area where landscaping is generally lacking
along the right-of-way. An eight-foot perimeter buffer is required along the north and
south (side-yard) property lines; however, the buffer width tapers to 5.7 feet and 5.9
feet, respectively, within portions of these areas. The applicant has requested a waiver
to allow a reduction of perimeter buffer width along portions of the north and south
property lines, and to allow 11 perimeter trees along the south property line where 13
are required. Staff recommends approval of the requested waivers as the applicant has
voluntarily increased the number of 24-inch box trees along the north property line to
compensate for the aforementioned landscape deficiencies. Adjacent to commercial
development to the north, 24-inch box trees are required every 30 feet on-center, and
the applicant has voluntarily increased the tree spacing to 20 feet on-center. In addition,
the parcel dimensions are tapered which also adds a physical hardship. Tree species
used include Fan Palms, Arizona Mesquites, African Sumacs, and Rio Grande Ash.
Provided shrubs include five-gallon Blue Ranger and Red Yuccas.
An exception from Title 19.08 has been requested to allow a reduction of required
parking lot landscaping. The provided parking lot landscaping includes nine trees
where 24 are required. Title 19.08 requires one tree for every 6 uncovered parking
spaces, plus one tree at the end of each row of spaces. The exception is justified as
the applicant is adding extra trees to the perimeter landscape buffer areas, and the
porte-cochere occupies a large portion of the front parking lot. The majority of the
deficient trees were to be located to the rear of the property where they have less of an
aesthetic impact.
The floorplans depict a large and small studio product with full kitchens and private
bathrooms. These types of units are consistent with a typical Hotel Residence room.
Despite the requested waiver and exception, the proposed development is appropriate
for the C-2 (General Commercial) zone and the Las Vegas Redevelopment Area. The
adjacent uses will not be adversely affected by the proposed hotel residence, and the
site is adequately buffered from the multi-family residential development to the west and
the house of worship to the south. The proposed landscaping will enhance the Decatur
Boulevard street front, and measures have been taken to ensure that the building is
aesthetically compatible with the development in the area. Staff recommends approval
of the Site Development Plan review and associated waivers.
The Hotel Residence use is defined as a multi-dwelling facility for extended stay
lodging, consisting of:
FS
SUP-67136 and SDR-67137 [PRJ-67134]

1. Efficiency units or suites with a kitchen containing a refrigerator, sink and cooking
facilities (such as a stove or microwave) suitable for long term occupancy;
2. Customary hotel services such as linen, maid service, telephone and upkeep of
furniture; and
3. Optional resident and guest amenities such as meeting rooms, club house and
recreation facilities. This use does not include facilities which qualify as other
types of dwelling units defined in this Title.
The site meets the minimum Special Use Requirements of a Hotel-Residence and it is
located an appropriate location. The floorplans depict a large and small studio product
with full kitchens and private bathrooms, which are consistent with a typical Hotel
Residence room. The hotel will provide customary hotel services as required, and pool
and deck area for hotel guests is proposed on the roof of the porte-cochere. Staff
recommends approval of the request.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This request is to merge an existing hotel and casino with an adjacent casino, and to
expand the gaming area of each establishment located at 1 and 15 Fremont Street.
ISSUES
Per Title 19.12 a Special Use Permit is required for any increase in the amount,
variety or magnitude of gaming to be offered within the two existing non-restricted
gaming establishment whether or not the existing gaming was approved by means
of a Special Use Permit. Staff supports this request.
Per the Downtown Centennial Plan Threshold requirements a Site Development
Plan Review is required for the proposed 5,200 square-foot expansion in floor area
within the vacated alleyway segment. Staff supports this request.
ANALYSIS
This project is located in the Las Vegas Downtown Centennial Plan Central Casino
Core in the pedestrian mall controlled and operated by the Fremont Street Experience.
The applicant has proposed a two-story 5,200 square-foot building addition to merge an
existing Hotel and Casino, located at 1 Fremont Street, with an existing Casino located
at 15 Fremont Street. The submitted site plan indicates the proposed building addition is
located on a recently vacated (20 x 130) alleyway segment in between the two subject
sites, which was approved via Petition to Vacate (VAC-66478) by the Planning
Commission on 10/11/16. No landscaping is proposed or required as the site is adjacent
to the Fremont Street Pedestrian Mall. Parking will be accommodated within existing
facilities for the Hotel and Casino.
The Gaming Establishment, Non-restricted use is defined as An establishment which is
used or intended to be used for the conduct of gaming activities for which a nonrestricted gaming license is required pursuant to LVMC Title 6. For informational
purposes, the term refers to an establishment whose gaming operations consist of
sixteen or more slot machines, or any number of slot machines together with any other
game, gaming device, race book or sports pool at that establishment. When operated in
conjunction with a hotel having more than 200 rooms, the use includes any number of
ancillary alcoholic beverage-related uses with an on-sale component, without regard to
the requirements of LVMC Chapter 19.12, but only to the extent such uses conform to
the applicable requirements of LVMC Chapters 6.40 and 6.50. The proposed use
meets the definition as reflected in the justification letter provided.
JB

1. Except as otherwise exempted by State law, non-restricted gaming
establishments must be located within the Gaming Enterprise Overlay District
described in Section 19.10.120.
The subject site is not located within an established gaming enterprise district,
but the non-restricted gaming use was established at the site prior to the creation
of the gaming enterprise district. The City of Las Vegas did not have a restriction
to the number of table games or slots for resort hotels with a non-restricted
gaming license when these uses were established, and therefore the use can be
expanded by means of a Special Use Permit per the requirements of Title 19.12.
2. A Special Use Permit is required for:
a. Any new non-restricted gaming establishment.
b. Any increase in the amount, variety or magnitude of gaming to be offered
within an existing non-restricted gaming establishment whether or not the
existing gaming was approved by means of a Special Use Permit
This Special Use Permit is being requested to increase the amount of gaming
within the proposed expansion to the existing hotel/casino and casino as required
by subsection b.
3. The Special Use Permit requirement in Paragraph (2) above:
a. Applies to all property in the City, wherever located and whether or not it is
located in the Gaming Enterprise Overlay District;
b. Applies to existing non-restricted gaming establishments whether or not
they have applied for an increase in the amount, variety or magnitude of
gaming to be offered;
c. Applies to any property or establishment irrespective of any rights or
purported rights established by prior adjudication, to the extent such rights
have not become vested by the exercise thereof; and
d. Supersedes and prevails over every other provision of the Municipal Code
to the contrary, or that might be deemed to be interpreted to the contrary.
This Special Use Permit is being requested to increase the amount of gaming
within the proposed expansion to the existing hotel/casino as required by
subsections a and b.
JB

Both subject sites currently operate as non-conforming Gaming Establishment, NonRestricted uses. Business licensing records indicated that the Hotel and Casino located
at 1 Fremont Street was originally entitled with 9,090 square feet of non-restricted
gaming floor area. Licensing records also indicate that the existing Casino located at 15
Fremont Street was originally approved to operate with 3,200 square feet non-restricted
gaming floor area. Per Title 19.12 a Special Use Permit is required for any increase in
the amount, variety or magnitude of gaming to be offered within the two existing nonrestricted gaming establishment whether or not the existing gaming was approved by
means of a Special Use Permit. In addition, Per Title 19.14.030 a non-conforming use
may expand as long as the increase is not more than 50%. Based on the original 9,090
square-foot and 3,200 square-foot non-restricted gaming floor area in both
establishments a maximum 18,435 square-foot non-restricted gaming floor area is
allowed. The submitted floor plan indicated that the total proposed non-restricted
gaming floor area between both will total 15,037 square-feet, which is approximately
18% under the maximum threshold of 18,435 square feet of non-restricted gaming floor
area. Staff recommends approval of the two requested Special Use Permits to allow an
expansion of the existing non-conforming Gaming Establishment, Non-Restricted uses
at 1 and 15 Fremont Street and the Site Development Plan Review for the proposed
5,200 square-foot two-story addition to the existing structures.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The request is for a major amendment to an approved Site Development Plan Review
(SDR-4882) and a Special Use Permit to allow an Auto Repair Garage, Minor within an
existing building at 4461 North Decatur Boulevard.
ISSUES
The proposed Auto Repair, Minor use will occupy two vacant suites within an
existing retail building.
The Auto Repair, Minor use requires a Special Use Permit in the C-1 (Limited
Commercial) zoning district. Staff recommends denial of the request.
A waiver has been requested from Title 19.08 to allow service bay doors facing the
right-of-way. Staff recommends denial of the request.
A major amendment to an approved Site Development Plan Review (SDR-4882) is
required due to the proposed site changes and the requested waiver. Staff
recommends denial of the request.
ANALYSIS
The subject site was part of a 17,255 square-foot shopping center expansion (SDR4882) approved by the City Council in 2004. The applicant is proposing to combine two
existing tenant suites (120 and 130) within the subject building for the installation of an
Auto Repair Garage, Minor. The parking areas and perimeter landscaping are existing
and were installed with the construction of the shopping center expansion. The required
parking for the proposed use is adequately accommodated on the site.
The applicant is requesting to amend the approved Site Development Plan Review
(SDR-4882) to facilitate the installation of an Auto Repair Garage, Minor. A spandrel
glass roll-up door will be added to the building storefront, which will allow access into
the proposed service bay. The rear roll-up door construction material is not specified on
the building elevation, but it appears to be a roll-up door typical of an auto garage use.
The proposed drive lane that will be used to enter and exit the service bay will require
cuts into the existing curb and landscape areas along portions of the front and rear of
the building. Vehicles will enter the service bay through the front of the building and exit
through the rear.
FS
SUP-67039 and SDR-67705 [PRJ-67009]

Title 19.08.040 development standards require that openings for service bay doors not
face the public right-of-way. The proposed service bay door faces Decatur Boulevard
to the east, and the applicant has requested a waiver to provide relief from this
requirement. Staff recommends denial of the waiver request as the service bays will be
highly visible from Decatur Boulevard and aesthetically unappealing. While perimeter
landscaping is installed along the east property line, it is generally sparse and does not
satisfactory screen the service bays from the public street. Along the north property
line, the existing perimeter wall and installed landscaping adequately buffers the
proposed use from the adjacent single-family dwelling units.
Due to the requested waiver to allow service bays facing the right-of-way and the lack of
screening adjacent to Decatur Boulevard, staff recommends denial of the requested
major amendment to the approved Site Development Plan Review (SDR-4882).
The site is classified as a Project of Regional Significance as a Special Use Permit is
being proposed within 500 feet from the North Las Vegas city limits. The Auto Repair,
Minor use is defined as A facility for the performance of minor repairs and service on
vehicles of 10,000 pounds gross vehicle weight or less. Such repairs and service are
limited to electronic tune-ups, brake repairs (including drum turning), air conditioning
repairs, generator and starter repairs, tire repairs, front end alignments, battery
recharging, lubrication, selling/installing minor parts and accessories, and other similar
activities. This use also includes the repair and installation of other minor elements of an
automobile such as windshield wipers, hoses, windows, etc., but excludes general
engine repairs, engine installation, and the repair and installation of transmissions and
differentials.
1. All repair and service work shall be performed within a completely enclosed
building.
The applicant proposes roll-up garage doors to allow vehicle access into the
service areas. All work will be conducted within this enclosed area; however, the
doors face Decatur Boulevard and require a waiver from Title 19.08 development
standards which staff does not support.
2. All disabled vehicles shall be stored on a concrete or asphalt surface in an area
which is screened from view from the surrounding properties and adjoining
streets, pursuant to LVMC 19.08.040. Vehicles shall not be stored on the
property longer than 45 days.
FS
SUP-67039 and SDR-67705 [PRJ-67009]

The applicant indicates that disabled vehicles will not be stored on-site; however
any vehicles that require storage will be located behind the building and will be
screened from view.
Due to the requested waiver associated with the companion Site Development Plan
Review to allow service bay doors facing the public right-of-way and the lack of
screening along Decatur Boulevard, staff recommends denial of the Special Use Permit
request for an Auto Repair Garage, Minor.
1.

With approval of a Special Use Permit, the proposed use would typically be
compatible with the existing land uses; however, due to the requested waiver with
the companion Site Development Plan Review to allow service bay doors facing
the public right-of-way, the use as proposed would not be harmonious with
existing and future land uses in the area.
2.
proposed.
The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the proposed
land use.
3.

The site receives access from Decatur Boulevard, which is adequate in size to
meet the requirements of the proposed use.
4.
The proposed Auto Repair Garage, Minor use does not compromise the publics
health, safety or general welfare.
FS
SUP-67039 and SDR-67705 [PRJ-67009]

5.
The subject site meets all applicable conditions of Title 19.12.
1.

Due to the requested waiver to allow service bay doors facing the public right-ofway, the site is not compatible with adjacent development and development in the
area.
2.
The applicant has proposed service bay doors facing the public right-of-way which
is not consistent with the development standards identified in Title 19.08.040.
3.

The site receives access from Decatur Boulevard, and site access does not
negatively impact adjacent roadways or neighborhood traffic.
4.
City;
The building and site landscaping is existing, and the proposed building materials
for the roll-up doors are appropriate for the area and the City.
5.

FS
SUP-67039 and SDR-67705 [PRJ-67009]

The site proposes service bay doors facing the public right-of-way, which is
contrary to the requirements of Title 19.08.040. The landscaping along Decatur
Boulevard is not adequate to screen the visual impacts of the proposed Auto
Repair Garage, Minor, and therefore, the building will not be harmonious and
compatible with development in the area.

The site will be subject to regular inspections and will therefore not compromise

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit to establish a proposed 76-foot tall Wireless
Communication Facility, Stealth Design (Monopalm) within an existing Shopping Center
located in the Town Center Special Area at 8414 Farm Road.
ISSUES
Per the Town Center Development Standards, a Special Use Permit is required for a
Wireless Communication Facility with a Waiver to allow a 249-foot distance
separation from a single-family detached dwelling where 330 feet is the minimum
separation required.
ANALYSIS
The subject site is zoned T-C (Town Center) with an SC-TC (Service Commercial
Town Center) land use designation. A Wireless Communication Facility is a permitted
use in all land use districts within Town Center, provided the facility meets the following
requirements:
a. A wireless communication facility is permitted if it utilizes stealth
technology, (made part of another structure and isnt visually discernible)
and is not within 330 feet of any single-family detached dwelling.
Otherwise, a Special Use Permit is required.
b. Towers and mono-poles are subject to LVMC 19.08.040(H) and shall be
in conformance with Chapter B, Section 5, subsection E (Mechanical and
Electrical Equipment) of this Manual.
The proposed Wireless Communication Facility will utilize stealth technology and have a
palm tree monopole design in order to blend in with the visual characteristics of the
subject site. The structure will be surrounded by an eight-foot tall CMU block wall. The
proposed location of the Wireless Communication Facility will be behind an existing
retail building and is approximately 249 feet from the nearest single-family detached
dwelling. A Waiver of the required 330-foot separation distance from single family
properties has been requested per the Town Center Development Standards. The
proposed use exceeds the Title 19 minimum residential adjacency distance requirement
of 234 feet. Per the submitted justification letter, the proposed facility will be unmanned
and will only require routine quarterly visits for maintenance and equipment updates.
CS
SUP-67292 [PRJ-67180]
As the proposed Wireless Communication Facility cannot meet the minimum

requirements of the Town Center Development Standards, staff recommends denial of
the request. If approved, conditions have been placed to ensure all applicable
requirements are met.
1.

The proposed tower will have a monopalm design and will blend in with the
existing features at the subject site. The proposed location of the tower is
approximately 249 feet from the nearest single-family detached dwelling.
2.
proposed.
The subject site is located within an existing commercial development that is
physically suitable for the intensity of the proposed land use.
3.

The wireless communication facility will not attract additional traffic to the site.
Access to the subject site is from Tule Springs Road, a 60-foot local street. This
will be adequate to accommodate maintenance vehicles when needed.
4.
Approval of this Special Use Permit will not compromise the public health safety
and general welfare of the public. The use will be subject to regular inspections
and is subject to licensing restrictions.
5.
CS
SUP-67292 [PRJ-67180]
The proposed used does not meet the Town Center Development Standard that
requires Wireless Communication Facilities to be located at least 330 feet from
the nearest single family dwelling. The applicant requests a distance separation
waiver in order to be 249 feet away from the nearest single family dwelling.
The City Council approved a request for Rezoning from R-E
(Residence Estates) to T-C (Town Center) as part of a larger request
(Z-0076-98). The Planning Commission and staff recommended
12/07/98
approval.
The City Council approved a Site Development Plan Review [Z-007698(14)] for a proposed 222,129 square foot shopping center at the
northwest corner of Farm Road and Tule Springs Road. The Planning

The Planning Commission withdrew without prejudice Special Use
Permit (SUP- 24305) which was a request for a proposed 80-foot tall
07/30/08
wireless communication facility (stealth design) with a waiver to allow a
250-foot distance separation from a single family detached dwelling
where 330 feet is the minimum required at 8414 Farm Road.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting to install a new 80-foot stealth design Wireless
Communication Facility designed to look like a clock tower on the site of an existing
shopping center. The height of the facility is measured from the base of the pole to the
top of the screening device. The clock panels will conceal an array of 12 antennas.
The lease area is to be located at the northeast corner of the property and would
replace four existing parking spaces. The lease area is to include space for an
additional future carrier.
ISSUES
A Wireless Communication Facility, Stealth Design use is a conditional use in all

zoning districts as stated in LVMC Title 19.12. The proposed facility was previously
submitted for administrative review (CUV-66441) and denied for being incompatible
with the surrounding area and uses. A Special Use Permit was subsequently
required.
Two existing trees within the perimeter landscape buffer along Rock Springs Drive
are proposed to be removed to accommodate the proposed facility. The applicant
will accept a condition of approval to replace these two trees to remain in
conformance with the approved Site Development Plan Review for the existing
shopping center.
ANALYSIS
The Wireless Communication Facility, Stealth Design use is defined by Title 19.18 as a
wireless communication facility that is designed to blend into the surrounding
environment. Examples include without limitation: antenna tower alternative structures;
roof mounted antennas (with architectural screening when appropriate); building
mounted antennas painted to match the existing structure; antennas integrated into
architectural elements (such as steeples or cupolas); antennas and antenna structures
designed to look like light poles, flagpoles, or any other camouflaging techniques
available on the market; and a cable microcell network which utilizes multiple low
powered transmitters/receivers or repeaters attached to existing wireline systems, such
as conventional cable or telephone wires, or similar technology that does not require the
use of towers.
The proposed use meets the definition, as it is a wireless
communication facility that consists of an alternative tower structure designed to look
like a clock tower, which conceals 12 antennas.
SS
SUP-67447 [PRJ-66664]
Conditional Use Regulations for this use include:

1. The applicant must submit to the Department, for administrative review and
approval, a site plan and an elevation drawing. The Director shall review the
documents to determine the applicable treatment of the proposed facility under
these Conditional Use Regulations. If the Director, in his discretion:
a. Determines that the proposed facility is a collocation of new transmission
equipment, a removal of transmission equipment or a replacement of
transmission equipment that:
i. Does not increase the tower height by more than 10% or height of
additional antenna array plus 20 feet, whichever is greater,
ii. Does not add more than 4 new equipment cabinets or 1 new shelter, and
iii. Does not contain a protrusion of more than 20 feet or the width or the
tower, whichever is greater, the Director shall approve the application as if
permitted by right.
b. Determines that Paragraph (a) above does not apply and approves the
proposed facility to proceed as a conditional use, the Director shall provide
written notice of preliminary approval to the applicant, with a copy to the office
of the City Council. That preliminary approval becomes final within 10 days
after the notice has been mailed or delivered to the applicant, unless within
that period a member of the City Council files with the Director a written
request for the Council to review the approval. If such a request to review is
filed, the application must first be reviewed and approved by the Council.
c. Determines that Paragraph (a) above does not apply and that the proposed
facility does not conform to the conditions listed below, a Special Use Permit
will be required for the use. Any determination by the Director that a Special
Use Permit will be required is not subject to appeal.
The proposed Wireless Communication Facility, Stealth Design use meets this
regulation. A Conditional Use Verification (CUV-66441) was submitted for
Department of Planning review. It was determined that Paragraph (a) above did
not apply, although the facility is designed for collocation. A Special Use Permit
was therefore required.
2. No residential use may exist on the property.
The proposed use meets this regulation, as the site contains only commercial
uses.
SS
SUP-67447 [PRJ-66664]
3. The design must conform to the definition of the term Wireless Communication
Facility, Stealth Design, as set forth in LVMC 19.18.020 and as determined by
the Director.
The proposed use meets this regulation, as this is a Wireless Communication
Facility that consists of an alternative tower structure designed to look like a clock
tower, which conceals 12 antennas.
4. Within an area designated as a Historic Preservation District, the proposed
facility must first be reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission before the
Director considers granting approval as a conditional use.
This regulation does not apply, as the proposed facility is not in a Historic
Preservation District.
5. The design and location of the proposed facility must be deemed by the Director
to be compatible with surrounding uses, and the facility must include appropriate
screening and landscaping to ensure such compatibility.
The proposed use does not meet this regulation, as the facility, which was
originally designed as an 80-foot tall monopalm, was not deemed to be
compatible with the surrounding commercial uses. A Special Use Permit was
therefore required. The facility would be screened by an eight-foot tall CMU
enclosure.
6. The frequencies used by the communication provider shall be in conformance
with Federal Communication Commission standards, as certified by a competent
professional (such as a radio frequency engineer).
The proposed use meets this regulation, as the Wireless Communication Facility
will be designed in conformance with FCC standards.
The proposed facility is to be located at the northeast corner of the shopping center
property near the corner of Lake Mead Boulevard and Rock Springs Drive. The lease
area would replace four existing parking spaces that are furthest from the retail building.
The Shopping Center is required to contain at least 162 parking spaces based on gross
floor area; with the proposed clock tower facility, 196 parking spaces would remain on
site.
Two existing perimeter shade trees and six five-gallon shrubs would also be removed,
to be replaced by five shrubs to match the existing species. The approved Site
Development Plan Review (SDR-5711) for this site indicates that 13 trees are required
SS
SUP-67447 [PRJ-66664]
within the east perimeter landscape buffer. Two additional trees will need to be planted
within this buffer to maintain conformance with the previous approval. No parking lot
trees would be displaced by the proposed lease area.
The appearance of the facility will look like a triangular tower structure with three sets of
gray screening panels attached to three gray structural pole supports. An analog clock
face would be visible on the northeast facing panel only. A landscape design would
be integrated into the tower above the clock, with no contrasting color from the rest of
the tower structure. No advertising is allowed on the tower, and none is proposed.
The proposed Wireless Communication Facility will exceed a slope of 100:1 for a
distance of 20,000 feet (3.79 miles) from the nearest point of a runway at the North Las
Vegas Airport that is greater than 3,200 feet in length. Comments received from the
Clark County Department of Aviation included the following:
Federal Aviation Regulations (Title 14, Part 77) require that the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) be notified before the construction or alteration of any building
or structure greater than 200 feet in height ( 77.13(a)(1)) or that will exceed a slope
of 100:1 for a distance of 20,000 feet from the nearest point of any airport runway
greater than 3,200 feet in length ( 77.13 (a)(2)(i)). Such notification allows the FAA
to determine what impact, if any, the proposed development will have upon
navigable airspace, and allows the FAA to determine whether the development
requires obstruction marking or lighting.
The proposed development will exceed the 100:1 notice requirement for the North
Las Vegas Airport (VGT). Therefore, as required by 14 CFR Part 77, the FAA must
be notified of the proposed construction or alteration.
A condition of approval has been added to address this issue, and the applicant has
been notified of the FAA requirements relative to the proposed facility.
The proposed clock tower structure will adequately screen the wireless antennas, and
the facility will allow for collocation of future facilities; however, the facility would be
located in a prominent (visible) location in the shopping center, rather than in a less
obtrusive location. Although the site will maintain adequate parking levels per Code
requirements, there are many uses (mainly restaurants) that are parking intensive and
need additional spaces to accommodate customers. It is not recommended to reduce
the current number of parking spaces for this reason. As the use is determined to not
be harmonious and compatible with the surrounding uses, staff recommends denial,
with conditions if approved.
SS
SUP-67447 [PRJ-66664]
1.

The clock tower panels conceal arrays of 12 antennas, and a decorative block
wall enclosure will screen all equipment from view. However, the proposed
Wireless Communication Facility, Stealth Design would be located in a very
prominent and visible location at the corner of Lake Mead Boulevard and Rock
Springs Drive, and the 80-foot structure is deemed to be inappropriate for this
location.
2.
proposed.
The shopping center site contains an L-shaped building that is situated close to
the side and rear property lines, with a parking field and perimeter landscaping
occupying the remainder of the site. An unoccupied area of land is available for
this use behind the rear corner of the building that would be less visually
obtrusive, but this area was determined to be unsuitable for the use by the
applicant.
3.

Access to the property is provided by Lake Mead Boulevard, a 110-foot Primary
Arterial as classified by the Master Plan of Streets and Highways, and Rock
Springs Drive, an 80-foot Minor Street. The existing roadway capacity is sufficient
to meet the requirements for the proposed Wireless Communication Facility,
Stealth Design use.
4.
The proposed clock tower facility will be subject to building permit and inspection,
as well as conformance with FAA safety regulations, thereby protecting the public
health, safety and welfare.
SS
SUP-67447 [PRJ-66664]
5.
The proposed facility did not meet Title 19 criteria for a conditional use and was
therefore deemed to require a Special Use Permit.

COMMENTS:
Federal Aviation Regulations (Title 14, Part 77) require that the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) be notified before the construction or alteration of any building or structure greater than
200 feet in height ( 77.13(a)(1)) or that will exceed a slope of 100:1 for a distance of 20,000
feet from the nearest point of any airport runway greater than 3,200 feet in length ( 77.13
(a)(2)(i)). Such notification allows the FAA to determine what impact, if any, the proposed
development will have upon navigable airspace, and allows the FAA to determine whether the
development requires obstruction marking or lighting.
The proposed development will exceed the 100:1 notice requirement for McCarran International
Airport (LAS). Therefore, as required by 14 CFR Part 77, the FAA must be notified of the
proposed construction or alteration. The CCDOA requests that the City of Las Vegas impose
the conditions listed below for the project:
Applicant is required to file a valid FAA Form 7460-1, "Notice of Proposed Construction
or Alteration" with the FAA, in accordance with 14 CFR Part 77, or submit to the Clark
County Director of Aviation a Property Owners Shielding Determination Statement
and request written concurrence from the Clark County Department of Aviation;
No Building Permit or other construction permit shall be issued for any structure greater
than 35 feet above the surface of land that, based upon the FAAs 7460 airspace
determination (the outcome of filing the FAA Form 7460-1), would (a) constitute a
hazard to air navigation, (b) would result in an increase to minimum flight altitudes
during any phase of flight (unless approved by the Department of Aviation), or (c) would
otherwise be determined to pose a significant adverse impact on airport or aircraft
operations.
Applicant is advised that FAAs airspace determinations are dependent on petitions by
any interested party and the height that will not present a hazard as determined by the
FAA may change based on these comments.
Applicant is advised that the FAAs airspace determinations include expiration dates and
that the separate airspace determinations will be needed for construction cranes or other
temporary equipment.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a request for a Special Use Permit for a proposed Bed & Breakfast Inn use at
2508 Callita Court.
ISSUES
A Bed & Breakfast Inn use is permitted in the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning
district with the approval of a Special Use Permit.
A Waiver request of Title 19.12 is needed, to allow one guest bedroom where two is
the minimum required. Staff recommends denial of this request.
ANALYSIS
The subject property contains a single-family. The property is in the airport overlay and
the proposed use will not affect the overlay. The applicant is requesting to allow one
guest bedroom, where two is the minimum required.
A Bed & Breakfast Inn use is permitted in the R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning
district with the approval of a Special Use Permit. Additionally, the following analysis is
required:
The Bed & Breakfast Inn use is defined as A facility wherein overnight
accommodations and a morning meal are provided in a dwelling unit to tourists for
compensation. The proposed use meets the definition as the applicant will host
tourists for compensation to stay at the subject property.
1. The establishment must have a minimum of two and a maximum of five guest
bedrooms.
The applicant is requesting a waiver to allow one guest bedroom.
recommends denial of this request.
Staff
RG
SUP-67474 [PRJ-67441]
2. Required on-site parking for guest bedrooms shall be screened by a 6 foot fence
or by dense landscaping.
The site plan submitted provided Italian Cypress trees along the southeast
portion of the property to provide screening of the on-site parking.
3. Access to the parcel on which the establishment is located must be by means of
a paved street with a right of way width of at least 50 feet.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as access to the parcel is by Callita
Court a paved street with a right of way width that is 50 feet.
4. Cooking facilities for guest rooms are not permitted.
The proposed use meets this requirement as the establishment will use the
cooking facility of the existing single-family dwelling.
5. The Department of Fire and Rescue must inspect and approve the occupancy of
an establishment before it may be used as a bed and breakfast inn.
The proposed use meets this requirement and prior to business license issuance,
an inspection by the Department of Fire and Rescue will be conducted.
6. Individual guest occupancy is limited to no more than one month in any 3-month
period.
The proposed use meets this requirement the guest occupancy will be days at a
time.
7. No sale or display of merchandise or other commodities may occur in connection
with the establishment.
The proposed use meets this requirement, as no other sale or display of
merchandise or other commodities will take place in connection with the
proposed use.
8. Private functions such as weddings, receptions, luncheons, parties and similar
activities are not permitted, except to the extent such activities represent
personal activities of the owner/ resident.
RG
SUP-67474 [PRJ-67441]
The proposed use meets this requirement, as the applicant will be hosting
between one to three people only and no other activities will be provided at this
location.
9. Not more than one on premise sign shall be permitted. With respect to that sign:
a. The copy may contain only the name and address of the establishment.
b. The sign may not exceed 3 square feet in size or 4 feet in height.
c. The sign may be freestanding or may be located on the dwelling itself or
on a fence or wall.
d. Any sign illumination must be exterior to the sign and must be shielded so
as not to produce glare upon an adjacent property or a public right of way.
e. The design materials and colors of the sign must be compatible with the
architectural style of the dwelling.
The proposed use meets requirement, as there is no signage proposed for this
proposed use.
The proposed Bed & Breakfast Inn use will not be compatible with the surrounding
residential uses due the waiver request to allow for one guest bedroom. In addition, the
use will be located within a residential subdivision, within 660 feet of two approved
Short-Term Residential Rental uses. While there is no requirement for distance
separation for the Bed and Breakfast use, the Short-Term Residential Rental use is very
similar and does require separation from other rental uses. The establishment of this
commercial use of a single family residence at the proposed location is too intense for
the surrounding residential uses. Therefore, staff recommends denial. If this
application is approved, it is subject to conditions.

size to accommodate the proposed Bed & Breakfast Inn use.
4.

condition of approval and business license approval and compliance. The
Department of Fire and Rescue must inspect and approve the occupancy of an
establishment before it may be used as a bed and breakfast inn.

The proposed use does not meet all of the applicable conditions of Title 19.12.
The use requires a minimum of two guest bedrooms and the proposed use will
provide only one guest bedroom.

** STAFF REPORT **
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit for a proposed 288 square-foot
Automobile Rental Use to be located within an existing commercial development at 725
South Las Vegas Boulevard, Suite #260. The proposed use cannot be conducted in a
manner that is harmonious and compatible with the neighborhood and adjacent
commercial uses; therefore, staff recommends denial of the request.
ISSUES
A Special Use Permit is required for an Automobile Rental use when the proposed
facility falls under the minimum site area of 25,000 square feet.
ANALYSIS
The subject site of the proposed Automobile Rental Use is located within a commercial
development along Las Vegas Boulevard. Some of the current uses within this
commercial development include: general retail businesses, a pawn shop, a night club
and a tavern. Per the submitted justification letter, it is the applicants intention to rent
out tri-mobile vehicles, motorcycles and scooters to patrons aged 21 and over. The
bulk of the vehicles will be stored at a satellite location and will only be brought to the
subject site when a rental is requested. Five parking spaces will be used for staging
when a rental request is made. One tri-mobile vehicle will remain on-site during
business hours for display purposes.
Per Title 19.12, the Automobile Rental use is defined as A facility for the rental of new
or used automobiles or other passenger vehicles. For purposes of the limitations of this
Title on outside storage, vehicles kept on a lot for rental purposes are not considered to
be outside storage The proposed use meets this definition per the submitted
justification letter and plans.
1. No more than 5 rental vehicles shall be stored on the site at any
The requirement is met per site plan dated stamped 10/27/16 and Justification
letter date stamped 10/27/16 as only five parking spaces will be utilized.
CS
SUP-67489 [PRJ-67423]
2. No vehicles shall be offered for sale on the premises.

This requirement is met per site plan date stamped 10/27/16 and the use will be
subject to regular business licensing inspections.
3. The installation and use of an outside public address or bell system is prohibited.
This requirement is met as the applicant has not proposed to utilize any type of
outside public address or bell system.
4. No used or discarded automotive parts or equipment shall be located or stored in
any open area outside of an enclosed building.
This requirement is met as the applicant not proposed to store any automotive
parts in any open outdoor areas per site plan date stamped 10/27/16.
5. All exterior lighting shall be screened or otherwise designed so as not to shine
directly onto any adjacent parcel of land.
This requirement is met as no exterior lighting has been proposed per site plan
date stamped 10/27/16.
6. Service bays for repairs, installations, cleaning or gas dispensing services facing
a public street or a residential zoning district shall be screened to a height of at
least 8 feet
This requirement is met per site plan date stamped 10/27/16.
The proposed use is located within the Downtown Centennial Plan Special Area.
Though, projects located within the Las Vegas Downtown Centennial Plan area are not
subject to the automatic application of parking requirements, the existing shared parking
lot that will be utilized by the proposed Automobile Rental use is severely parking
impaired. According to the submitted site plan, the shared parking lot will only have 33
available parking spaces with the addition of the proposed Automobile Rental use. A
commercial development with the same uses in another location of the city would be
required to provide a total of 176 parking spaces. Per the submitted justification letter,
the applicant states that parking staff is on hand to direct traffic within the parking lot
and that overflow traffic is directed to permissible adjacent parking lots and city metered
streets. Employees of the property also have reserved parking in an adjacent lot.
Due to the lack of available parking for the existing uses, staff finds that the proposed
use cannot be conducted in a manner that is harmonious and compatible with the
neighborhood and adjacent commercial uses; therefore, staff recommends denial of the
request.

SUP-67489 [PRJ-67423]

The proposed Automobile Rental use is located within the Downtown Centennial
Plan Downtown South District. Mixed-use development is encouraged within
this district, however insufficient parking will prevent the proposed use from
integrating harmoniously within the existing commercial development.

The subject site is not physically suitable to accommodate the parking needs of
the proposed Automobile Rental use.
3.

Site access is provided from Las Vegas Boulevard, a 100-foot Primary Arterial as
designated in the Master Plan of Streets and Highways. Due to the lack of
parking, it is possible for traffic back up along Las Vegas Boulevard from patrons
trying to enter the subject site.
4.
Approval of this proposed Special Use Permit will compromise the public health,
safety and general welfare of the public. If approved, the use would be subject to
regular inspections and subject to licensing restrictions.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is a presentation of the Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor Plan final draft. The
Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor Plan (from here on out, referred to as the Plan)
focuses on the neighborhoods within a quarter-mile radius from the North Rainbow
Boulevard centerline, bound by CC-215 to the north and by West Lone Mountain Road
to the south, for a linear section of 1.6 miles. The analysis and the recommendations
contained in the Plan have been formulated according to the Las Vegas 2020 Master
Plan and its Land Use and Rural Neighborhoods Preservation Element; feedback
collected through neighborhood meetings and an online survey has also been
incorporated into the document. The Plan serves as a guiding document designed to
offer insights on the preferred land use and development scenario as well as the reevaluation of the public right-of-way components to enhance existing community
amenities in the long-term.

The Rainbow Corridor has a specific rural residential character that in the most recent
year has been affected by changes in land use as well as by mobility patterns derived
by the classification of Rainbow Boulevard as a Primary Arterial. The Rainbow
Boulevard North Corridor Plans purpose is to approach community planning and
transportation planning as an intertwined process that focuses on Rainbow Boulevard
as a community corridor, and to recommend future actions that will preserve those
elements of the Corridor that have been recognized as critical by the existing
community.
ANALYSIS
The Plan defines North Rainbow Boulevard as a community corridor based on its
primary users, the existing adjacent land uses, its current function, and the overall
character of the area. The 1.6 miles section of North Rainbow Boulevard serves as a
multi-modal spine for buses, cars, bikes, and pedestrians that weaves together multiple
neighborhoods and serves primarily local residents that live within a distinctly
characterized area. Due to the fact that since 2015 there have been an increasing
number of land use changes within the Plan area, Staff deemed appropriate to further
assess the most recent trends in land use and development as well as their current and
projected impact on the existing neighborhoods; in this process, the information
gathered from current residents has been critical to the formulation of Staff
recommendations.

The first step in the assessment of the Corridor has been the review of current policies
and plans that are valid for Rainbow Boulevard, such as the 2020 CLV Master Plan,
The Land Use and Rural Neighborhoods Preservation Element, and the CLV Title 19:
Unified Development Code. Also included is a review of The Clark County Master Plan
for lands that reside outside of city limits but are located along the corridor. The included
analysis involves a thorough examination of the community and its characteristics, as
well as the study of the past and current land use in the area.
The Study of the Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor highlighted a number of issues
related to two broad categories: a) land use; and b) mobility patterns. The key findings
with regards to these were:
Land Use: Recent land use changes have impacted the primarily residential land
use character of the area.
Mobility: The classification of Rainbow Boulevard as a Primary Arterial affects the
functionality of the area as a residential neighborhood and is not supported by
actual traffic levels.
Recommendations

Short-term: 1) Work with Clark County on Future Land Use of current non-city
parcels along Rainbow Boulevard to ensure desert rural is preserved in the area.
2) Implement Office land use designations where commercial activity is
expected. 3) Inventory of rural aspects and indicators. 4) Pursue grant funding
and alternative capital sources to improve amenities, neighborhood traffic
comfort levels and walkability along the corridor.
Long-term: 1) Select projects added to Capital Improvement Plan. 2) Develop

and implement Streetscape types for Corridor Character Areas.
In terms of implementation and monitoring, the Planning Department will: coordinate

with the Department of Public Works and explore the feasibility and possibility of
integrating the recommended ROW improvements; coordinate with Clark County to
address the current issues regarding ROW design that is currently under the County
jurisdiction; evaluate and assess on a yearly basis any proposed land use changes that
affect the Plan area.

Overview and Purpose

The Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor Plan (hereto referred to as the Plan) purpose is to
approach community planning and transportation planning as an intertwined process that
focuses on Rainbow Boulevard as a community corridor. We define here Rainbow Boulevard as
a community corridor based on its primary users, the existing adjacent land uses, its current
function, and the overall character of the area. Rainbow Boulevard serves as a multi-modal
spine (buses, cars, bikes, and pedestrians) that weaves together multiple neighborhoods and
serves primarily local residents that live within a distinctly characterized area. Problems
emanate when a rural community is losing its rural character because the primary roadway is
classified - but not operating- at an urban level. 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, are designated as the Rainbow Boulevard Corridor.
Since 2015 there have been recent land use changes along Rainbow Boulevard, from Rancho
Drive up to the I-215 (corridor Plan area), where rural residential land has changed to a more
intensive commercial use.
Purpose of the Plan
The Plan will serve as a guide for residents, property owners and developers, staff, the
Planning Commission and City Council in making land use, design and development decisions
that are supportive of the immediate Plan area. Roadways are not simply a conduit for moving
vehicles, but in many instances can be a spine that establishes the character of the surrounding
community. Rainbow Boulevard has the ability to serve as the community spine and as
community amenity that transcends its purpose of merely moving vehicular traffic. Design
guidelines, if adopted as part of this Corridor Plan, can serve as an inspiration and quality guide
that supports and enhances the rural character throughout all current and future development
along the Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor, while balancing the needs for future development.
Establishing a sense of place along the corridor as a strategy for preserving what is left of the
rural character will give people something to defend. A vision for the Corridor is necessary
because what was once a unique place is slowly becoming a place of nowhere in particular.
On September 6, 2000 the Las Vegas City Council unanimously adopted The 2020 Master Plan
as the policy guide for all land use and zoning decisions. Additional plans, such as the Land
Use and Rural Neighborhoods Preservation Element have made recommendations specific to
Rainbow Corridor area. These detailed plans do not replace the 2020 Master Plan, but are
intended to serve as a guideline as to how development and preservation should occur in a
specific area of the city.
Current Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor:

The classification of Rainbow Boulevard in the Master Plan of Streets and Highways as a
Primary Arterial has been the justification for commercial land use changes generally centered
at the intersection of Ann Road and Rainbow Boulevard. Ann Road maintains an average daily
traffic flow count of over 16,000 eastbound and nearly 10,000 westbound vehicles, while
Rainbow Boulevard maintains approximately 2,500 southbound vehicles and 3,200 northbound
vehicles. All development sites are located along two primary arterial streets, and each site is
accessed by Rainbow Boulevard and Ann Road. However, due to increased traffic flow on Ann
Road, the residential land uses along the northeast corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Ann
Road, the southeast corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Ann Road, and the southeast corner of
Rainbow Boulevard and Rancho Drive have all been recently amended to Service and General
Commercial (C-2) land uses.
Traffic Trends on Rainbow Boulevard
Both Ann Road and Rainbow Boulevard are primary arterial streets that support a
daily average of nearly 32,000 drivers. Over 64% of daily travel is along Ann Road
(east and west bound) with peak traffic times at 7-8am and 5-6pm. The remaining
35% of daily travel is along Rainbow Boulevard (north and south bound) with peak
traffic times at 7-8am and 5-6pm.
The regulated speed limit along Ann Road is 45 MPH; regulated speed limit along
Rainbow Boulevard south of Ann Road to Rancho Drive is 45 MPH; and regulated
speed along Rainbow Boulevard north of Ann Road to the I-215 is 25 MPH.
Figure 1- Traffic trends Ann and Rainbow
City and County limits

Abutting Rainbow Boulevard north of Ann Road are four parcels that are part of
unincorporated Clark County. These parcels are zoned as Rural Neighborhood
(RN) or Rural Neighborhood Preservation (RNP). The areas where county islands
are present are visually disparate; sidewalks are not present along the front of
property, impacting land use flow.
Commercial Space
At the northwest corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Ann Road a 1.54-acre Limited
Commercial (C-1) zoned parcel was annexed from Clark County to the City of Las
Vegas September 2006 with an existing retail store; it is currently zoned Limited
Commercial (C-1) with existing pharmacy and retail store.
At the northeast corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Ann Road sits a 0.82-acre
Residence Estates (R-E) zoned lot that was recently annexed to the City of Las
Vegas from Clark County. A requested rezoning and land use change from
residential to commercial, to accommodate a 3,680 square feet Restaurant with
38 parking spaces and drive-through service on the lot, was also recently
approved.
At the southeast corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Ann Road two parcels totaling
1.64 acres requested and were approved for rezoning from Residential Estates
(R-E) to Limited Commercial (C-1), and land use change from Desert Rural (DR)
to Service Commercial (SC) to allow for neighborhood commercial development.
Project site set to construct two commercial buildings totaling 6,100 square feet: a
1,905 square-foot self-service car wash, and a 3,972 square-foot fuel pump
canopy. Six months later than these changes in land use, a third parcel of 1.05
acres adjacent to the new commercial uses requested and was approved for
rezoning from Residence Estates (R-E) to Limited Commercial (C-1), and land
use change from Desert Rural (DR) to Service Commercial (SC).
At the southeast corner Rainbow Boulevard and Rancho Drive five parcels
totaling 15 acres requested a General Plan Amendment for planned Medium LowAttached Residential (MLA) to General Commercial (GC) for vehicle sales and
auctions.
At the northwest corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Rancho Drive a convenient
store, tavern, church, two medical office spaces and four office spaces are zoned
General Commercial (C-2).
As it stands, commercial development along Rainbow Boulevard functions poorly.
Buildings are set back from the street with parking hindrances that do not fully
optimize space and restrict access. This retail design is auto-oriented and not
focused on pedestrians.
If commercial development continues to expand along the Rainbow Corridor, the

street may start operating as an overly-widened thoroughfare with an overemphasis on vehicle-oriented design and businesses (strip malls, imposing signs,
car washes & garages, and drive-through lanes). In terms of commercial use
viability on Rainbow Boulevard, another issue to consider is that Rainbow
Boulevard inevitably dead ends into the Clark County 215, which may affect
negatively any commercial use attempts along the north area of the corridor.
Alternative Transportation Modes
Overall, Rainbow Boulevard lacks a Complete Streets design.
Sidewalks are not fully compliant sidewalks.
Crosswalks are few along Rainbow Boulevard, and unsafe due to low
visibility and traffic.
There are no provisions for dedicated routes for bicyclists.
Pedestrian activity and connectivity of Rainbow Boulevard is low, making

the corridor visually uninteresting and less appealing.
Community Survey and Public Input

The content of the Rainbow Boulevard North Corridor Plan is built from the response collected
from the Plan area community. The Planning Department focused on an inclusive approach in
order to reflect the ideas and vision that the current residents have for Rainbow Boulevard
North. As a major part of this approach, staff has collected input through a web-based survey.
The feedback that emerged from the survey highlighted several important topics: results that
over 70% of the participating residents do not feel that the rural character of the neighborhood
is being maintained; at the same time, the community stated how one of the most valuable
aspects of Rainbow Boulevard North is the its rural residential character. In terms of nonresidential land use, the community also expressed its preference for having office spaces
instead of commercial establishments move within the area. As for input regarding the right-ofway and its features, the survey revealed a concern regarding road safety, and a favorable
opinion on a possible improvement of sidewalks, landscaping, lighting, and a possible allocation
of the right-of-way to bicycle-designated lanes. The survey results are represented in the
Figures two (2) and three (3).

Plan Approach & Methodology

The first step in the assessment of the Corridor has been the review of current policies and
plans that are valid for Rainbow Boulevard. Among these documents, the City noted the
relevancy of: a) the 2020 CLV Master Plan and particularly its Land Use and Rural
Neighborhoods Preservation Element; b) the Clark County Master Plan; and c) the CLV Title
19: Unified Development Code. The Corridor Plan sought to link the existing policies and plans
to the challenges and issues that have been identified within the Plan area; in this regard,
community input has been essential to the outline of the perceived changes occurring along the
Corridor and the local feelings towards current community assets and development patterns.
Following is a collection of adopted policies and plans applicable to the Corridor:
Local and regional plans
I.
2020 CLV Master Plan
The Rainbow Corridor is located in the Northwest Sector and was identified as a
newly developing area in year 2000
a. POLICY 3.2.5: That the Northwest Sector Plan be amended to reflect the
outcome of a more detailed review of rural preservation issues and to offer
a set of recommendations regarding the Citys mandated role to protect
rural preservation neighborhoods.
II.
Land Use and Rural Neighborhoods Preservation Element

a. The Rural Preservation Overlay District is intended to preserve the rural
nature of designated neighborhoods located in the Southeast, Southwest
and Centennial Hills Sectors by attaching special importance to their rural
character and low density. Some characteristics of a rural preservation
neighborhood include single-family homes on large lots, non-commercial
raising of domestic animals, and a density limit of two units per acre. The
existing character of rural neighborhoods and communities is protected by
establishing boundaries to limit encroachment of higher density
development into protected areas.
b. OBJECTIVE 3.2: To ensure that rural preservation areas with distinctive
rural residential character are preserved and buffered from surrounding
higher density development, in accordance with the Nevada Revised
Statutes.
c. POLICY 3.2.1: That Rural Preservation Neighborhoods, as defined by the
State of Nevada, be afforded the required transitional buffer where such
portions of the required buffer area fall within the City of Las Vegas and are
lands that are currently vacant.
d. POLICY 3.2.2: That land within such rural preservation neighborhoods
located within portions of Clark County located north of Cheyenne Avenue
and west of Decatur Boulevard be annexed to the City of Las Vegas in
order to provide them with urban municipal services. Any additional tax
costs that would be borne by these property owners as a result of such
annexation would be phase into effect over several years
e.
POLICY 3.2.5: That the Northwest Sector Plan be amended to reflect the
outcome of a more detailed review of rural preservation issues and to offer

a set of recommendations regarding the Citys mandated role to protect
rural preservation neighborhoods.
f. In addition, state law directs the governing body to adopt zoning
regulations that are designed to ensure the protection of existing
neighborhoods and communities, including the protection of rural
preservation neighborhoods. In 1999 the Nevada State Legislature adopted
SB 391, which allowed for the creation and protection of rural preservation
neighborhoods. Because this state legislation expired on May 31, 2004, the
city of Las Vegas adopted a Rural Preservation Overlay District to continue
to protect the character of rural neighborhoods within the city

IV.
Clark County Master Plan Title 30 (Applicable to adjacent, non-City properties)

a. 30.48.170 Purpose. The Residential Neighborhood Preservation Overlay
District, hereafter referred to as RNP, is established to ensure that the
character of rural and other residential development is preserved
b. 30.48.190 Standards: Property within an RNP shall be maintained as a
low density residential development, not to exceed an overall density of
two dwelling units per acre, except for the RNP-III, which shall not exceed
a density of 4 dwelling units per acre. Local supporting public facility uses
shall have appropriate buffering and setbacks.
c. Adequate buffer areas, screening, and an orderly and efficient transition of
land uses, as determined by the Board, shall be provided between the
RNP and a development with a higher density or intensity of use
UDC
a. 19.04 Complete Streets
i.
19.04.010 Street connectivity standards set forth are minimum
requirements and shall apply to all new development projects
whether utilizing public streets, private streets or private drives.
ii.
19.04.030 Vehicle/ Pedestrian Separation Management
1. Sidewalks shall be required on both sides of all
public and private streets in accordance with City
Standards
2. Sidewalks shall be provided adjacent to private
drives to separate pedestrian and vehicular
movements, which include, but are not limited to
commercial center drives, commercial driveways,
park entrances and multi-family residential
developments
3. Pedestrian roadway crossings not located at
intersections, also known as mid-block crossings,
must receive the approval of the City Traffic
Engineer prior to being marked or used for such
purposes.
10
b.
iii. 19.04.040 Connectivity- a measurement of the

diversity of vehicular or pedestrian options a
transportation network provides within and around its
transportation network. It is measured using a
Connectivity Ratio. The higher the ratio, the more
options there are for travelers in a given neighborhood
and the lower the ratio, less options are available
iv. 19.04.060 Amenity Zone- may consist of an Amenity
Area, Sidewalk, Off-site Buffer Strip, and On-site
Planting Area. The Amenity Zone is intended to
enhance pedestrian access and safety, while providing
adequate space for landscaping and utility and public
safety features.
19.10.180 RP-O Rural Preservation Overlay District consists of those
areas that are deemed consistent with the definition and intent of a rural
preservation neighborhood. It is the intent of the Rural Preservation
Overlay District to:
i.
Ensure that the rural character of each rural preservation
neighborhood is preserved
ii.
Unless a rural preservation neighborhood is located within
three hundred thirty feet of an existing or proposed street or
highway that is more than ninety-nine feet wide, maintain the
rural character of the area developed as a low density
residential development
iii.
Establish a basis for the modification of standards for the
development of infrastructure to maintain the rural character of
the rural preservation neighborhood.
iv.
For any rezoning request for vacant property that is located
within three hundred thirty feet of a parcel within the Overlay
District, the City Council, for good cause shown, may approve a
greater density or intensity of use than that which exists within
the Overlay District

Inventory and Analysis

To provide a list of infrastructural and landscaping elements to work on, a detailed inventory
and analysis of the current situation along the Corridor is required. The Department of Planning
will work with Public Works when proposed changes within are identified within the Plan in
order to prioritize projects and work on a timeline for improvements.
Community Profile
Household Demographics along mile of Rainbow Boulevard North centerline, between
Rancho and I-215:
Population: There are currently 3,966 residents in the Plan area of the Rainbow
Corridor. Since 2005, the population for the overall Centennial Hills area has
more than doubled.
Income: Median household income is $71,302
Travel: Over 40% of residents have more than 2 cars in the household. Nearly 90%
comminute to work alone. The Rainbow Corridor has a higher rate of persons
who drive alone when commuting to work than the City as a whole (90% vs
77%). Conversely, corridor residents use public transportation and work at
home at a far lower rate than the City average. This could be a result of public
transportation being absent along the corridor north of Ann Road.
Between 2005 and 2014, traffic on Rainbow Boulevard north of Ann Road decreased by
17%. On Rainbow Boulevard south of Ann road, traffic increased by 13%.
During the same time, traffic decreased on Ann Road in proximity to Rainbow
Boulevard by 5%.

Land Use Profile

The Rainbow Corridor Plan area covers a total of 498.48 acres. Rainbow Boulevard has
a limited variety of General Land Use and Zoning along the Corridor. Single family
Residential Estates (R-E) consisting of Medium-Low Density Residential (ML), Desert
Rural (DR), dominate the corridor. Limited Commercial (C-1) and Service Commercial
(SC) parcels are emerging on the northeast and southeast corners of Rainbow
Boulevard and Ann Road, and the southeast corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Rancho
Drive. However, established General Commercial (GC) has been located on the south
west corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Rancho Drive since 1965.
Commercial/Office: 0.80% of the total corridor Plan acreage
Along the southwest corner strip mall there are four office spaces. These
spaces are medical and health oriented businesses
Currently, eight other professional and business service establishments are
located throughout the Plan area.
Additional office spaces are zoned and will be added within the Corridor
Plan area at the Corner of Ann and Rio Vista ST
Commercial Service/Retail: 2.21% of the total corridor Plan acreage
A strip mall runs along the southwest corner of Rainbow Boulevard and
Rancho Drive where multiple food and entertainment establishments, as
well as one convenient store/ gas station are operating
15
At the corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Ann Road there is currently only
one commercial business operating; three more are approved but not yet
constructed or in operating.
Residential: 63.13% of the total corridor Plan acreage
Single Family Residential (SFR) dominates the Corridor by covering 52%
(1,242 dwelling units). Aside from the corners of major intersections (with
the exception on southwest corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Ann Road),
single family residential uses run along Rainbow Boulevard and are
present throughout the Plan area.
Multi-Family Residential (MFR) are predominately at the South end of the
Plan area north and south of Rancho and Rainbow with complexes located
mid corridor. These complexes make up the 2.22% (171 dwelling units) of
the total corridor Plan area.
Siegfried and Roys Estate accounts for 9% of the total corridor Plan
acreage
Civic Schools, Parks, and churches: 5% of the total corridor Plan acreage
Two private day cares/ schools are located along Rainbow Boulevard. One
is located on Rainbow Boulevard just north of Ann Road; one is located on
Rainbow Boulevard just south of Hammer LN. Clark County School District
Joseph Neal Elementary School is located within the Plan area at Azure
Drive and Serene Drive. Schools and private day cares account for 3% of
the total corridor Plan area.
Estelle Neal Park at the corner of Tropical Parkway and Serene Drive is
located just south of Joseph Neal Elementary School. This park and other
open spaces account for 1% of the total corridor Plan area.
There are two churches located within the corridor. One is located on the
southwest corner of Rainbow Boulevard and Rancho Drive. Another is
located on the east side of Rainbow Boulevard in between Rancho Drive
and Ann Road. Together, churches make up 1.30% of the total corridor
Plan area.

Corridor Physical Profile & Architectural Identity

1. Character Areas
In order to better understand and address the specific challenges of the Rainbow North Corridor
and identify proposals for future improvements, the Plan Area has been divided into three
Character Areas that present certain differences among them and similarities within
themselves, both in terms of physical form of the built environment and density and intensity of
land use. The three Character Areas are: a) Rancho Rainbow, located along the southern
stretch of Rainbow
Boulevard; b) Ann
Rainbow, located in the
central part of the Corridor;
and c) Tropical Rainbow,
located at the northern edge
of the Plan Area.
I.
Rancho Rainbow:
The Character Area
identified as Rancho
Rainbow constitutes
approximately 18% of the
Plan area and is the most
diverse in terms of land us.
It is also a very transitional
area that intersects one of
the Citys major corridors:
Rancho Drive. This section
is divided almost evenly
between residential and
commercial uses, with
zoning designations varying
from Single Family
Residential (R-1), to
Residential Planned
Figure 5- Rainbow North Corridor Character Areas
Development (R-PD2 and
R-PD18), and from Service
Commercial (SC) to General Commercial (C-2). More than 60% of the area (45.5 acres) hosts a
large parcel zoned Residence Estates (R-E) and only partially developed at the present time.
The parcels zoned as Limited Commercial (C-1) are still undeveloped and abut the Residence
Estates (R-E) property to the north and south side of it. The southernmost edge of the Rancho
Rainbow Character Area is a 15-acre parcel soon to be developed for commercial use. The
inherent transitional aspects of this Character Area and the fact that two large parcels of land
are still undeveloped makes Rancho Rainbow potentially vulnerable to de-characterization of
the neighborhood identity. In this case, however, because of the Rancho Drive and Rainbow
17
Boulevard intersection, ROW configuration seems to be more appropriate to the mobility pattern
than in the rest of the Corridor. Nonetheless, the Rancho Rainbow Area is, and should work
as, a gateway to the community, which has a low-intensity rural character; consequently, ROW
interventions should highlight the gateway identity of the Character Area and support the
transitional role of the 1.9 miles along Rainbow Boulevard.
II. Ann Rainbow:
The Ann Rainbow Character Area accounts for the majority of the land share and land
utilization (59%, or approximately 306 Acres). It is also situated in the heart of the Corridor, and
is a critical component of the Plan, mainly because of the intersection of Ann Road and
Rainbow Boulevard located at the very center of it. The Ann Road and Rainbow Boulevard
crossroads generate unique vehicular patterns when compared to the other two character
areas, and the medium-high traffic flow (32,000 vehicles per day) has had a definite impact on
the recent land use changes and land use proposals that occurred in the neighborhood.
Because of this, and the presence of a large number of vacant parcels of land, this section is
the primary area of concern for future development patterns. An additional problem specific to
this site is the presence of a large portion of County islands, which leads to uncertainty in
terms of a unified vision for the Corridor.
Most of the land use is dedicated to residential: the variety of Zoning Districts includes: Single
Family Compact-Lot (R-CL), Single Family Residential (R-1), Residential Planned Development
(R-PD) ranging in density from R-PD2 to R-PD8 and, in a smaller percentage, Single Family
Residential Restricted (R-D) and Residence Estates (R-E). Three of the four corners at the
Ann Road and Rainbow Boulevard intersection are now zoned C-1 (Limited Commercial); two
additional lots adjacent to the southeastern corner lot of the intersection is also now zoned
Limited Commercial (C-1). These are four of the six parcels zoned for Commercial use in the
entire Plan Area. On the western edge, at the corner between Ann Road and Rio Vista Street,
there are 1.78 acres to be developed as Service Commercial/Office space.
III. Tropical Rainbow:
The Tropical Rainbow Character Area makes up for about 23% of the Corridor, and is located
at the very north edge of it, with Rainbow Boulevard ending in a cul-de-sac before the 215
freeway. Because of the greater distance from high-traffic intersections, Tropical - Rainbow is
the Corridor section that most serves local residents; the neighborhood is almost exclusively
residential, with approximately 17% of the total acreage dedicated to Civic and Public Space
due to the presence of the Joseph Neal Elementary School and the Estelle Neal Park. The
existing residential parcels are zoned Residential Planned Development (R-PD2), Residence
Estates (R-E), and Single Family Residential-Restricted (R-D), giving it the lowest density
among the Character Areas; one parcel at the northwestern edge of the Corridor is dedicated to
Service Commercial (SC), hosting a steakhouse and lounge, and one parcel adjacent to that
hosts a Baptist Church located within a County island. About 23% of Tropical Rainbow is
18
located within a County island. Vacant land parcels are located along the northeastern edge,
facing the CC-215 freeway, and at the southeastern corner of the Azure Drive & Rainbow
Boulevard intersection. The scarce visibility due to the low amount of vehicular traffic does not
encourage shifts in land use in the near term; therefore this Character area can be categorized
as being at low-risk for de-characterization as a primarily residential neighborhood.
Nonetheless, Tropical Rainbow poses an evident issue in terms of Right-of-way configuration
along Rainbow Boulevard: the 1.2 miles stretch between Tropical Parkway and Azure Drive is
blatantly not uniform to the rest of the corridor, nor does conform to minimum safety standards;
the eastern portion of it, the one where deficiencies are most notable, pertains to Clark Countys
jurisdiction. The 800 feet stretch between Azure Drive and the cul-de-sac where Rainbow
Boulevard terminates is instead characterized by an overly-wide ROW that, even while serving
as access point to only a few parcels of land, still has the traffic features of a major arterial.

Deficiencies and Discrepancies

Posted speed limit
US Limits Study (see: http://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/uslimits/ for the 35 mph recommendation).
Create safer environment for pedestrians crossing and walking along the
Boulevard. The posted speed limit north of Ann Road is 25 mph; it then
increases to 45 mph at southern end, near Rancho Drive.
Sidewalk
Missing
a.
b.
East side of Rainbow Boulevard between Tropical Parkway

and Azure Drive.
East side of Rainbow just past Ann Road for 1,415 feet.
Bicycles
Rainbow could greatly improve bicycling with the addition of bike lanes and reduction in
posted speed south of Ann Road.
Trails
There is a Multi-Use Non-equestrian trail alignment running from Rancho to Ann. There is
no trail north of Ann Road with pedestrian path running west of Ann Road
and Rainbow Boulevard intersection. The trail is not designed with any sort
of prominence, thus does not identify as a trail.
Development Pattern
Future transportation demands are not likely incur additional roadway, influencing the future
design of the corridor towards more neighborhood-oriented pedestrian and
biking access. Increasing demand for commercial land use changes is
incongruent with the existing Plan area. An increase of commercial land
use intensity is not fully supported with the limited access.
20
Recommendations
Research opportunity of utilizing the 80 Major Collector Street profile (see Figure 4)
Adjust the existing right of way to accommodate an eight foot pedestrian

realm, a five-foot wide bike path with three-foot wide buffer.
Dedicate remaining right of way to two lanes of north and southbound
vehicular traffic with a center running landscaped median.
Figure 6: 80 Major Collector Street
Maximize transportation choices

Reprioritize transportation options by de-emphasizing vehicular demands
for surface parking and reducing vehicular speeds.
Place emphasis on human-scaled urban design in order to reorganize the
linear shopping center retail type to nodal commercial clusters.
Establish a side street network that creates pedestrian interest and an
intersection commercial clustering that encourages vibrant economic
activity.
Establish walking as the fundamental unit of travel for the corridor
Minimum sidewalk clearance through the corridor is to be five feet, with the
designed clearance of eight feet.
Driveways are not to appear as mini intersections, but driveways with sidewalk
crossings designed to give priority to the sidewalk.
21
Vehicular parking accommodations are to be relocated away from the street

fronts along Rainbow with clear access provided to the buildings main
entrance along Rainbow.
Four feet bike lane
Encourage and emphasize transit
Propose possible parking reduction at RTC stops #2242 and #5547 for bus
turnout dedications
Increase quantity and quality of bus shelters
22
Summary of Recommendations
Recommended short term
1. Work with Clark County on Future Land Use of current non-city parcels along
Rainbow Boulevard to ensure desert rural is preserved in the area.
2. Implement Office land use designations where commercial activity is expected
a. Low intensity office development in line with P-O (Professional Office)
conversions or single-story, small scale office development.
b. Establish design guidelines that protect the residential character of the
corridor (height, scale, and massing that supports rural residential)
c. Residential character of community maintained, with low parking and traffic
demands
d. Enhance the design of the Multi-use trail as a community identifier to
establish place making, and enhancing near-rural character preservation
3. Inventory of rural aspects and indicators
a. Bring cracked and broken sidewalks to code
b. Limit commercial development to only corners of major intersections within
the corridor Plan area
4. Pursue grant funding and alternative capital sources
a. Transportation funding (Fuel Revenue Index/ FRI funds).
Long term recommendation costs and schedules
1. Select projects added to Capital Improvement Plan
a. Rural streetscape and medians
b. Civic/Open Space Development
c.
Plan Area needs a park and there are lots that may likely not develop as R-E
(more likely to request commercial land use)
d. Suggested route to school
e. Establish bike routes to Estelle Neal elementary school.
f.
Bike routes and furnishings as leisure amenity
2. Streetscape types for Corridor Character Areas:
a.
Rainbow Boulevard (consistent): A street which has a minimum right-of-way
width of 100 feet and an existing or potential design capacity of three or
more travel lanes of traffic in each direction with eight feet for an amenity
zone, a four feet bike lane, sidewalk on each side, and divided by a
landscaped median
b.
Major Intersection (may vary with bike lane): Intersection designs shall
comply with the applicable Uniform Construction Design Standards except
in cases where a 60-foot planned minor collector intersects a roadway of an
equal or lesser right-of-way width. At such intersections, pavement widths
and curb return radii shall comply with City Standards
c.
Local side streets: A street with a minimum right-of way width of forty-seven
feet which is designed to carry residential traffic between minor collectors
23
and is designed to accommodate on-street parking where adjacent

residential development is required to be sprinkled
Implementation and Monitoring

With regards to the implementation of this Plan, the Planning Department will:
1. Coordinate with the Department of Public Works and explore the feasibility and
possibility of integrating the recommended right-of-way improvements
2. Coordinate with Clark County to address the current issues regarding right-of-way design
that is currently under the County jurisdiction
In order to monitor the future land use and development of what has been defined by this Plan
as the Rainbow North Corridor, the Planning Department will:
1. Evaluate and assess on a yearly basis any proposed land use changes that affect the
Plan area
2. Monitor the schedule of Capital Improvement Plans affecting the public right-of-way and
evaluate the possibility of implementing the recommended road improvements
