Shaylee Meadows AKA: Bailey Meadows - Subdivision - Appeal to City Council

Background Information and Documents

Allied Homes & Development submitted an application to subdivide 23.42 acres into a 100-lot residential subdivision. The 100 proposed lots vary in size from 7,500 to 8,659 square feet.

The Planning Commission approved the application with conditions. Several citizens appealed the Planning Commission decision on February 26, 2020.

On March 2, the City Council decided to hear the appeal “de novo” which will allow for the introduction of additional evidence and testimony by any party. In accordance with Sandy Municipal Code 17.28.50(B), the record associated with the Planning Commission’s decision will be presented to the Council as part of the appeal, but the Council may consider additional evidence and testimony and will conduct an independent review of the proposed subdivision.

The City Council conducted a public hearing for the appeal on April 6.  During its deliberations at its meeting on April 20, a majority of the City Council indicated its view that the Bailey Meadows application should be denied.  Given the particular type of application at issue, pursuant to ORS 197.522, the applicant had one additional opportunity to amend the proposal. The amended proposal was made public and additional public comment was accepted on the changes only. See the schedule below:
