This item was heard at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of April 11, 2018.  At that meeting the Commission voted 4-4.  Per the bylaws, ties must be heard at the next available Commission meeting.  On April 12, 2018 Ms. Campos submitted a request to continue the item to the June 13, 2018 meeting due to previously scheduled family matters.

Since the meeting of April 11, 2018 Staff has received an additional email, letter and several petitions submitted by the neighbors.  These are separately attached to the report as Public Comments (NEW).

Staff recommends denial of the request.
