At its public hearing on December 6, 2001 the Planning Board approved, subject to the conditions

On a motion by A. O'Hashi, seconded by A. Gunter, the Planning Board approved Use Review
#LUR2001-00057 in accordance with the Recommended Conditions of Approval indicated in Attachment
A and adopted the staff memorandum dated December 6, 2001 (preparation date November 23, 2001) as
findings of fact (6-0), including the addition of Condition 4 to read "The Applicant shall use, occupy, or
otherwise operate the areas noted as "flex space" on the approved plans entitled "Naropa Housing at the
Drive in," dated October 15, 2001, in a manner consistent with the applicant's written statement dated
November 9, 2001. The written statements and plans referred to in this condition are attached to the staff
memorandum dated November 23, 2001, in preparation for the December 6, 2001, Planning Board
meeting as Attachment C and on file with the city of Boulder Planning Department;" and, further, the
addition of Condition 5 to read "Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy on any of the flex space,
the Applicant shall develop and implement an ongoing marketing program subject to the review and
approval of the Planning Director, this is designed to prioritize the marketing of the flex space in a manner
that may result in a mix of uses and users that include: persons affiliated with Naropa University; residents
of the neighborhood that is bounded on the south by Yarmouth Avenue, on the north by Lee Hill Drive, on
the east by Highway U.S. 36, and on the west by Broadway; arts and crafts studio uses; and technical and
professional office uses."
T. Nielsen offered a friendly amendment to delete Condition 5. A. Gunter did not accept the friendly
amendment. He said that Naropa does not have a professional leasing organization; by requiring the
applicant fo develop a marketing plan to accomplish what has been represented in the written statement,
the applicant is much more likely to be able to carry it out.
B. Pommer offered a friendly amendment to make a substitute Condition 5 to read "Prior to the issuance
of a final certificate of occupancy for any of the flex space, the Applicant shall develop and implement a
marketing program, subject to the review and approval of the Planning Director, that is designed to
prioritize the marketing of the flex space and encourage a mix of uses that may include persons affiliated
with Naropa University; residents of the neighborhood that is bounded on the south by Yarmouth Avenue,
on the north by Lee Hill Drive, on the east by Highway U.S. 38, and on the west by Broadway; arts and
crafts studio uses; and technical and professional office uses." A. O'Hashi and A. Gunter accepted the
friendly amendment.
