Mr. Fred Wilson <br />September 2, 2015 <br />Page 2 <br />During the hearing the applicant repeatedly stated that they had indeed aligned both <br />maps correctly ("kept north pointing north") and to the same north datum. However, we <br />disagree. We further postulate that the rotation of the layers relative to one another <br />allows the applicant to slide the property to the northwest along the NW-SE alignment of <br />30th Avenue, further reducing the amount of POS zoning designation on the parcel. <br />New Evidence <br />In order to rectify the applicant's error, LHVC has prepared five different maps, <br />designated LHVC Sheet 9/2/15-01 through -05, which are attached. These maps use <br />two different Metro Plan Diagram versions and the Applicant's Sheets ZC-2 and ZC-3. <br />The following section provides a short explanation for each of LHVC's maps. <br />LHVC Sheet 9/2/15-01 <br />This sheet is the correct overlay of Applicant's Sheet ZC-2 onto ZC-3 (equivalent to <br />Applicant's Sheet ZC-4). The map portion of applicant's Sheet ZC-2 (containing the <br />property, City Limits, UGB and 30th Ave. Centerline) has been overlaid onto Applicant's <br />Sheet ZC-3 (Metro Plan Diagram). In order to align both maps to the same datum <br />(State Plane Coordinate System) Applicant's Sheet ZC-2 has been rotated 2' clockwise <br />to match the Metro Plan Diagram. The North Arrow has been rotated to match. No other <br />modifications have been made to the Applicant's maps. It is immediately apparent that <br />the 30th Avenue Registration fits better than the applicant's version and that the City <br />Limits are now correctly located on the east side of Spring Boulevard. The registration <br />of the property on the Metro Plan Diagram on this version of the map looks remarkably <br />similar to Applicant's Sheet SA7.0 from the 2012 PUD application. <br />LHVC Sheet 9/2/15-02 <br />This sheet is very similar to LHVC Sheet 9/2/15-01 except that the Applicant's Sheets <br />ZC-2 and ZC-3 have both been aligned with True North, which required 2°counter- <br />clockwise rotation for Applicant's Sheet ZC-3. Again the registration is nearly identical <br />to Applicant's Sheet SA7.0 from the previous PUD application. <br />LHVC Sheet 9/2/15-03 <br />This sheet shows the to-scale overlay of the Applicant's entire Sheet ZC-2 onto a high- <br />resolution-scan of a printed copy of the adopted 2004 Metro Plan Diagram which LHVC <br />obtained from City Planning Staff. The Applicant's sheet was rotated 2° clockwise to <br />account for the State Plane Coordinate System alignment of the Metro Plan Diagram. <br />Due to the 1" = 7,000' scale on the diagram, the applicant's map nearly vanishes at this <br />scale. <br />Laurel Ridge Record (Z 15-5) Page 81 <br />
