00:11:45,039 --> 00:11:45,759 present to you 275 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,279 the update to the action plan. 276 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:54,960 This was part of the DIN Plan 2030 comprehensive plan. 277 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:59,899 As you all are familiar, in the back of your DIN Plan 2030 278 00:11:59,899 --> 00:12:01,919 is an action plan that basically 279 00:12:01,919 --> 00:12:06,809 lists all the actions within the plan, prepares who the 280 00:12:06,809 --> 00:12:09,120 department that's responsible for it, 281 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:15,039 prepares a timeline as well as any other partners that are 282 00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:16,000 going to help with that 283 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,360 implementation of that action plan. 284 00:12:19,919 --> 00:12:20,799 We're going to discuss that. 285 00:12:22,159 --> 00:12:26,240 As you all know, this DIN Plan 2030 was adopted last year, 286 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,000 February 2015, 287 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,519 and again in the implementation and monitoring element, 288 00:12:31,519 --> 00:12:34,000 which is the last element, there is an action plan. 289 00:12:35,519 --> 00:12:38,100 That action plan, as you see here, was also included in 290 00:12:38,100 --> 00:12:38,799 your backup, 291 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:44,809 has, we talked about, relatively establishes the timeframe 292 00:12:44,809 --> 00:12:47,440 and the relative priority of each action. 293 00:12:48,159 --> 00:12:52,659 There is frameworks for guiding decision making within the 294 00:12:52,659 --> 00:12:53,600 action itself, 295 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,149 with regards to the responsible department as well as the 296 00:12:58,149 --> 00:12:58,960 timeline. 297 00:13:00,159 --> 00:13:05,929 Lastly, the action plan has over 285 action synthesized 298 00:13:05,929 --> 00:13:07,039 actions. 299 00:13:07,039 --> 00:13:10,879 So these are actions that are combined with multiple 300 00:13:10,879 --> 00:13:12,320 actions where they were common 301 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,600 in the elements. 302 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:15,679 We put them together. 303 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:20,000 As you can see in this exhibit here, action two actually 304 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,480 has numerous actions from the plan. 305 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:27,200 So again, that's the reason why there's 285. 306 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:36,159 The process in which this update was put together involved 307 00:13:36,159 --> 00:13:38,240 the technical advisory committee. 308 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,840 As you all know, this technical advisory committee is made 309 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,600 of approximately 26 senior staff members. 310 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,200 Each technically experts in their own field. 311 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,100 And as you all know, the comprehensive plan is not just one 312 00:13:53,100 --> 00:13:56,399 technical aspect. 313 00:13:56,399 --> 00:14:00,000 It's got multiple different, from engineering to 314 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,440 environmental to police and fire. 315 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,860 So we involve those folks in the process of updating the 316 00:14:07,860 --> 00:14:09,279 action plan, 317 00:14:09,279 --> 00:14:11,659 because they are really the people that are involved in 318 00:14:11,659 --> 00:14:12,879 implementing the plan. 319 00:14:12,879 --> 00:14:16,240 So as we started this effort, we reached out to them and 320 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,960 they're the primary persons or people that 321 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,559 help put this plan or this action update plan together. 322 00:14:23,679 --> 00:14:27,120 As you can see, this is not in your DEN Plan 2030. 323 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,710 There's a status column and this was included in your 324 00:14:30,710 --> 00:14:31,519 backup. 325 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,360 That's the primary entry in which the technical advisor 326 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,919 committee provided their status, 327 00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:41,039 their progress in the actions that they've been assigned. 328 00:14:42,399 --> 00:14:46,990 And we'll get into more details as far as what has transp 329 00:14:46,990 --> 00:14:48,639 ired within the past year. 330 00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:52,399 Some key accomplishments, also any impediments that were 331 00:14:52,399 --> 00:14:53,279 encountered, 332 00:14:53,279 --> 00:14:56,799 and other recommendations that the technical advisory 333 00:14:56,799 --> 00:14:59,759 committee feels that needs to be done. 334 00:15:00,559 --> 00:15:04,330 These recommendations are primarily related to who's 335 00:15:04,330 --> 00:15:05,039 responsible. 336 00:15:05,759 --> 00:15:08,480 If there was some addition to the responsible department, 337 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,139 another recommendation may be if there were other partners 338 00:15:13,139 --> 00:15:16,399 that we can enlist to help 339 00:15:16,399 --> 00:15:17,759 implement these actions. 340 00:15:17,759 --> 00:15:21,519 And then maybe also if the timeframe is a little bit off, 341 00:15:23,279 --> 00:15:26,669 they can certainly recommend updates on how to either speed 342 00:15:26,669 --> 00:15:27,600 it up or maybe 343 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,039 postpone it for whatever reason they think is necessary. 344 00:15:34,399 --> 00:15:37,120 So with that, before I get to some of the key 345 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:37,759 accomplishments, 346 00:15:37,759 --> 00:15:40,379 I want to give the commission an opportunity, did you all 347 00:15:40,379 --> 00:15:41,759 have any questions 348 00:15:41,759 --> 00:15:44,799 with regards to the statuses? 349 00:15:44,799 --> 00:15:49,120 Do you have an opportunity to read it and form any 350 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,960 questions that I can answer at this point? 351 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,480 Or if not, I can continue with the PowerPoint presentation. 352 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:04,960 All right, so the first key accomplishment is the 353 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,519 initiation of an economic development 354 00:16:07,519 --> 00:16:09,279 partnership action team. 355 00:16:09,279 --> 00:16:13,360 This is a strategic action or plan that the economic 356 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,919 development department has initiated. 357 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:21,509 They started this early in 2015 as the DEN Plan 2030 update 358 00:16:21,509 --> 00:16:22,399 was wrapping up. 359 00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:28,480 There's six teams that make up this partnership team. 360 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:33,379 It's teams that focus on recruitment, Code DEN, which is a 361 00:16:33,379 --> 00:16:36,320 technical team that looks at technology, 362 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:37,759 partnerships. 363 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,440 There's culture and unique to DEN. 364 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,000 They focus on those actions. 365 00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:49,129 And then also, I believe it's, I'll take my notes real 366 00:16:49,129 --> 00:16:50,000 quick. 367 00:16:56,879 --> 00:16:57,759 Outreach as well. 368 00:16:57,759 --> 00:17:01,200 So those are the key or the teams that make up this 369 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,840 economic development partnership team. 370 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,950 And again, they're currently in place and are working 371 00:17:06,950 --> 00:17:09,279 towards implementing actions to help 372 00:17:09,279 --> 00:17:12,640 in their respective action teams. 373 00:17:15,519 --> 00:17:18,049 In January as well, the last year, again, as the DEN Plan 374 00:17:18,049 --> 00:17:20,960 2030 was wrapping up, 375 00:17:21,519 --> 00:17:24,700 the community development department finished up their, I'm 376 00:17:24,700 --> 00:17:26,000 sorry, not the community development 377 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,259 department, but the PCO, Public Communication Office, 378 00:17:29,259 --> 00:17:31,440 finished up their communication plan. 379 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:35,430 And this is in working concert with not only with the City 380 00:17:35,430 --> 00:17:38,640 of DEN, but with other entities 381 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,980 within the communication field that puts together how we 382 00:17:41,980 --> 00:17:43,759 are going to communicate to the general 383 00:17:43,759 --> 00:17:44,000 public. 384 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,619 So it's a plan that they are using to implement their 385 00:17:48,619 --> 00:17:52,160 objectives and their strategies moving 386 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:52,480 forward. 387 00:17:55,759 --> 00:18:00,960 Technical Services has launched a free Wi-Fi. 388 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,960 So if you're around the DEN Square, again, this was back in 389 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:05,119 March, they've launched this. 390 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:06,720 So there is now free Wi-Fi. 391 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,079 So that's a key accomplishment. 392 00:18:08,079 --> 00:18:10,799 That's one of the things that was mentioned in the DEN Plan 393 00:18:10,799 --> 00:18:12,559 2030 as an action item. 394 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,599 This is the Community Development Department or Division. 395 00:18:19,599 --> 00:18:23,119 They completed their consolidated plan for the next five 396 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:23,759 years. 397 00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:28,079 This consolidated plan is a fairly thick document as well. 398 00:18:28,079 --> 00:18:32,990 Again, this is a plan which they are using to strategize on 399 00:18:32,990 --> 00:18:34,400 how they're going to implement 400 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,480 their specific tasks. 401 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,279 And a couple of those specific tasks involve the 402 00:18:39,279 --> 00:18:41,839 implementation of some grant programs. 403 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,789 HUD offers a CBD grant that is included in this 404 00:18:46,789 --> 00:18:50,240 consolidated plan, also a home grant. 405 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,940 So it basically outlines how this division is going to work 406 00:18:53,940 --> 00:18:55,599 towards implementing their 407 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,880 strategies and their objectives as well. 408 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,490 So as you can see, just in a few examples, we've already 409 00:19:04,490 --> 00:19:06,240 seen several different departments 410 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,000 use the comprehensive plan to develop or finalize and fine 411 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,440 tune their plan to move forward on some 412 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,839 of their actions that they're looking to accomplish. 413 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:26,500 Again, in later that year, 2015 August, the City Council 414 00:19:26,500 --> 00:19:28,240 adopted the Code Amendments to 415 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,160 the Gas, Well, and Production section of the DDC. 416 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:37,200 That was again back late, mid to late August of last year. 417 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,819 In September, the Plan Department started the existing land 418 00:19:43,819 --> 00:19:45,680 use database. 419 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,380 And as you know, in order to be able to plan, we need to be 420 00:19:49,380 --> 00:19:51,279 able to understand what we have 421 00:19:51,279 --> 00:19:52,240 on the ground. 422 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,140 And for the longest time, we have never had an existing 423 00:19:55,140 --> 00:19:57,599 land use or at least kept it maintained. 424 00:19:57,599 --> 00:20:01,130 I can say that our GIS division has started that up and it 425 00:20:01,130 --> 00:20:03,440 's actually maintaining this database. 426 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,690 So if when we need data, we're able to compile it within a 427 00:20:07,690 --> 00:20:09,680 reasonable, timely manner. 428 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,730 And we have this readily available for any future studies 429 00:20:13,730 --> 00:20:15,920 that we may be looking at doing 430 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:16,720 in the near future. 431 00:20:19,839 --> 00:20:22,759 Again, September of last year, we initiated or we created 432 00:20:22,759 --> 00:20:25,440 the Planning Zoning Subcommittee, 433 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:31,599 which is to look at rezoning potentials within the city. 434 00:20:31,599 --> 00:20:34,079 And that committee has met several times. 435 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,759 Members of this commission have participated in that. 436 00:20:37,759 --> 00:20:41,460 And we've identified several locations within the city that 437 00:20:41,460 --> 00:20:43,680 we feel that should be initiated 438 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,839 as staff to bring forward as a rezoning. 439 00:20:46,559 --> 00:20:50,549 We are also going to be talking to our City Council in the 440 00:20:50,549 --> 00:20:51,839 near future to give them an 441 00:20:51,839 --> 00:20:55,170 update on this specific because ultimately, those rezoning 442 00:20:55,170 --> 00:20:57,119 that staff is going to propose 443 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,329 are going to go to the City Council for their consideration 444 00:20:59,329 --> 00:20:59,519 . 445 00:20:59,519 --> 00:21:03,369 So an upcoming meeting with the City Council is scheduled 446 00:21:03,369 --> 00:21:04,960 for later this year. 447 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,279 Community Improvement Services, CIS, has started an 448 00:21:11,279 --> 00:21:16,880 enhanced right-of-way maintenance program. 449 00:21:17,519 --> 00:21:21,069 This started October of last year where they were granted 450 00:21:21,069 --> 00:21:23,519 some funds to work with a private 451 00:21:23,519 --> 00:21:26,819 contractor to look at how they can improve and beautify 452 00:21:26,819 --> 00:21:28,640 existing right-of-ways. 453 00:21:29,279 --> 00:21:29,279 Currently, it's my understanding that there are 33 areas 454 00:21:29,279 --> 00:21:35,359 that they maintain as we speak. 455 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,079 And hopefully that program continues. 456 00:21:38,079 --> 00:21:39,920 I have a list of those areas if you'd like. 457 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,140 I don't have it readily available with me, but I can 458 00:21:42,140 --> 00:21:44,079 certainly provide that to the commission. 459 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:45,359 Commissioner Bec. 460 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:46,079 Thank you, Chair. 461 00:21:46,079 --> 00:21:49,269 These right-of-ways, are these where roads next to the R&D 462 00:21:49,269 --> 00:21:50,160 model were? 463 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:50,880 These roads? 464 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,160 No, these are existing roads. 465 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,440 I'm reading my notes here. 466 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,960 33 total streets, and they're in both TexDOT and City right 467 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,079 -of-way. 468 00:22:04,079 --> 00:22:07,359 So there's a partnership with TexDOT to identify some areas 469 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,759 where maybe we want to enhance those 470 00:22:09,759 --> 00:22:13,240 areas more than what their current scheduled maintenance is 471 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:13,519 . 472 00:22:13,519 --> 00:22:16,400 So that's the effort is to improve those areas. 473 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:17,119 Okay, thank you. 474 00:22:18,319 --> 00:22:19,519 Commissioner Detovits. 475 00:22:19,519 --> 00:22:22,160 Ron, you said there's three that you have? 476 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,640 33 right-of-way areas, yes. 477 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,000 You can give us a list of those? 478 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:28,880 I can, yes. 479 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:29,920 At some other point in time? 480 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,910 Yeah, I don't have that, I just have a note that there are 481 00:22:32,910 --> 00:22:35,119 33 areas that the CIS folks 482 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,039 are looking, are working on. 483 00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:39,279 They include both DOT and? 484 00:22:39,279 --> 00:22:40,000 City right-of-ways. 485 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,200 City and what about county? 486 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:43,119 I don't know. 487 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,720 All I know is that it involves City and TexDOT right-of- 488 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:46,240 ways. 489 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,079 Yeah, I think county, you're looking at further out the 490 00:22:50,079 --> 00:22:50,240 city. 491 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,839 I think what we're trying to focus on, again, assuming that 492 00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:54,720 that's what the CIS folks are 493 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:58,400 doing is more internally into the city's city limits. 494 00:23:00,559 --> 00:23:01,059 Okay. 495 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,480 Economic Development has initiated a Den Arts Walk of Fame 496 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,200 and as you all are familiar, 497 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:13,059 if you are walking down Hickory Street, there are plaques 498 00:23:13,059 --> 00:23:15,279 on Hickory Street that identify 499 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:20,539 key members of our community that were instrumental in the 500 00:23:20,539 --> 00:23:22,880 arts and other avenues to 501 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,200 enhance Den. 502 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,319 Total, there are 12 currently that have been installed, 503 00:23:30,319 --> 00:23:31,920 sorry, last year. 504 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,240 The program is an annual program. 505 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,950 My understanding is that next year they're looking at 506 00:23:36,950 --> 00:23:38,480 adding six more plaques. 507 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,559 So a subcommittee or a committee has been identified and is 508 00:23:42,559 --> 00:23:44,480 working in identifying who 509 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,029 should be on that next list and so annually there will be 510 00:23:48,029 --> 00:23:51,440 another six or so plaques installed 511 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:52,559 along Hickory Street. 512 00:23:56,319 --> 00:24:00,019 The plan department has started the initiation of a small 513 00:24:00,019 --> 00:24:02,559 area plan update, 514 00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:05,920 one that we'll be bringing forward to the subcommittee or 515 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,680 to the commission, sorry, 516 00:24:08,799 --> 00:24:13,839 soon. It's an area that we've seen some activity. 517 00:24:13,839 --> 00:24:17,039 This is the Hickory area next to Fry. 518 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:17,680 That scope in that area is what we're looking at and again, 519 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:25,039 there is an existing Fry small area 520 00:24:25,039 --> 00:24:30,170 plan. It was completed back in, I want to say, '99 so it's 521 00:24:30,170 --> 00:24:32,240 somewhat outdated and we're looking at 522 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,180 updating it in efforts to identify what we can do to 523 00:24:35,180 --> 00:24:37,920 improve that area or help improve that area. 524 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:40,660 Chair? 525 00:24:41,839 --> 00:24:42,880 Commissioner Bruegel. 526 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,400 Thank you, Chair. Ron, have there been other neighborhoods 527 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:47,680 that have approached the planning 528 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,759 department to work on small area plans? I know several 529 00:24:50,759 --> 00:24:52,400 years ago there was a talk about the 530 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,269 neighborhood Ector and Bonnie Bray somewhere in that area 531 00:24:56,269 --> 00:24:59,359 and more recently the neighborhood by 532 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,250 T.W.U. along Austin Street. There was talk for a while 533 00:25:02,250 --> 00:25:03,759 about, so have other neighborhoods 534 00:25:03,759 --> 00:25:05,119 approached the planning department? 535 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:10,170 The Ector folks, as you all know, there was a rezoning 536 00:25:10,170 --> 00:25:11,920 recently along the university so those 537 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,329 folks did approach and I think you were one of those that 538 00:25:15,329 --> 00:25:18,000 were given that opportunity and we did 539 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,970 connect with some members of the neighborhood along Ector 540 00:25:21,970 --> 00:25:24,640 Street. That small area plan had been 541 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:30,140 drafted, never finalized. We're looking at reviving that 542 00:25:30,140 --> 00:25:32,000 small area plan and hopefully we can bring 543 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,720 that forward as well. Other areas where we see that there's 544 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,000 a need for a small area study plan 545 00:25:38,799 --> 00:25:41,750 has been south of downtown. There's an area there that we 546 00:25:41,750 --> 00:25:44,799 're looking at also starting but the one 547 00:25:44,799 --> 00:25:48,079 in Austin, I have not heard anything. If you would like, I 548 00:25:48,079 --> 00:25:50,319 can maybe touch base with you. I'll find 549 00:25:50,319 --> 00:25:53,069 it maybe we can explore that area as well and that's 550 00:25:53,069 --> 00:25:55,680 certainly an area we can follow up as well. 551 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,799 That'd be great and as I understand it, it's primarily the 552 00:25:58,799 --> 00:26:00,720 impetus is on the neighborhood 553 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,500 to come to you. It's not the city saying we think that this 554 00:26:03,500 --> 00:26:05,039 would be a great place for small area 555 00:26:05,039 --> 00:26:06,730 plans. It's neighbors getting together and then reaching 556 00:26:06,730 --> 00:26:07,759 out to the planning department. 557 00:26:07,759 --> 00:26:11,410 It's both. I mean if the city staff feels that there's an 558 00:26:11,410 --> 00:26:13,839 opportunity to look at an area where 559 00:26:13,839 --> 00:26:17,210 we feel that there's ways we can help, we'll propose that 560 00:26:17,210 --> 00:26:19,519 and that's something that we did 561 00:26:19,519 --> 00:26:22,180 for the one just south of downtown. There's an area there 562 00:26:22,180 --> 00:26:24,960 that the Stroud area neighborhood. 563 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,200 That's something that we're looking at just because we see 564 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:28,880 that development is coming from 565 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,619 Eagle North as well as Elm and west. So we feel that that's 566 00:26:32,619 --> 00:26:34,240 an area we can look at again. 567 00:26:35,279 --> 00:26:36,789 What was that process like? Did you all just have like a 568 00:26:36,789 --> 00:26:38,720 neighborhood meeting and reach out to the 569 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,210 neighbors and there was a program that existed? Yeah, we 570 00:26:42,210 --> 00:26:43,759 haven't really started it yet but that 571 00:26:43,759 --> 00:26:47,559 is an area that we're focusing to start soon. So that one 572 00:26:47,559 --> 00:26:50,000 will probably involve some neighborhood 573 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,289 meetings where we'll invite the entire neighborhood, 574 00:26:54,289 --> 00:26:56,880 identify some issues, constraints that we can 575 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,079 address and we already identified a few things that we can 576 00:27:00,079 --> 00:27:02,079 help and maybe the community can 577 00:27:02,079 --> 00:27:04,119 bring a little bit more input into that. Yeah, I think that 578 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,759 's great and I know that staff resources 579 00:27:05,759 --> 00:27:08,809 are very limited. I get that but I think making yourselves 580 00:27:08,809 --> 00:27:10,960 more available and more visible because 581 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,799 I think there's a lot of, there are several neighborhoods 582 00:27:13,799 --> 00:27:15,200 in town that probably do feel 583 00:27:15,839 --> 00:27:18,759 somewhat like they could use some support and maybe don't 584 00:27:18,759 --> 00:27:20,799 quite know where to go. Sure. And 585 00:27:20,799 --> 00:27:22,970 I imagine those that are informed probably reach out to 586 00:27:22,970 --> 00:27:24,400 their city council person but there's 587 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,289 probably a lot of people that may not even know that this 588 00:27:27,289 --> 00:27:29,279 even exists. So I would encourage more 589 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,890 initiative like that reaching out to the neighborhoods. I 590 00:27:32,890 --> 00:27:34,559 think that's great. Well no, I appreciate that and just 591 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:40,049 as we know last year we started the long-range planning 592 00:27:40,049 --> 00:27:42,960 section and myself along with Cindy 593 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,009 Jackson who's here have initiated a number of long-range 594 00:27:47,009 --> 00:27:49,759 projects which was the Stroud neighborhood 595 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,349 as well as the reviving of the Ector Street small area plan 596 00:27:54,349 --> 00:27:56,720 . So there are ones that are coming. 597 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,890 Great. Julie Wyatt is heading the effort on the Fry Street 598 00:28:00,890 --> 00:28:03,519 overlay or the small area plan. So 599 00:28:03,519 --> 00:28:06,289 we'll start to see more projects and again it's not 600 00:28:06,289 --> 00:28:09,839 something that we will say. We will actually 601 00:28:09,839 --> 00:28:13,349 go out and hopefully get some projects going. That's great. 602 00:28:13,349 --> 00:28:14,160 Thank you. 603 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:20,420 Commissioner Hatchbeth. Thanks Chair. What is the, so we 604 00:28:20,420 --> 00:28:23,839 have development pending there on 605 00:28:23,839 --> 00:28:27,539 Fry Street. What is the process assuming the small area 606 00:28:27,539 --> 00:28:29,359 plan is upgraded or changed 607 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,400 and there's a project on the books. What does the 608 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,240 transition look like for an applicant? 609 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:40,190 We, this project that you're referring to Commissioner H 610 00:28:40,190 --> 00:28:43,039 atchbeth has been in the process or 611 00:28:43,039 --> 00:28:46,130 in the queue for some time. They're actually going through 612 00:28:46,130 --> 00:28:47,839 the review process right now. So 613 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,339 we can't stop them from going forward. We can only you know 614 00:28:52,339 --> 00:28:54,720 recommend that you know we wait till the 615 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,680 study is done but they're moving forward. We're not going 616 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,400 to you know prevent them from moving 617 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:05,380 forward. So you'll see this project that you're referring 618 00:29:05,380 --> 00:29:08,240 to prior to this study being complete 619 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:13,920 is my assumption. Okay. Okay. 620 00:29:18,079 --> 00:29:20,960 Again something that you all were involved in the mobility 621 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,319 plan. 2016 January is when it was adopted. 622 00:29:24,319 --> 00:29:28,779 That kind of set the stage for what PS's you know efforts 623 00:29:28,779 --> 00:29:32,079 in adopting a road impact piece but this 624 00:29:32,079 --> 00:29:35,779 was something that was needed to be done. Again this was 625 00:29:35,779 --> 00:29:38,480 done or completed and adopted in January 626 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:45,990 of this year. Also early this year the airport adopted or 627 00:29:45,990 --> 00:29:49,440 was able to adopt their airport master 628 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,799 plan. Again this master plan is to help them plan and 629 00:29:53,799 --> 00:29:57,359 strategize their efforts over at the airport. So 630 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,480 this was something that was well needed. I'm not sure if 631 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,759 this was an update or rather a new one but 632 00:30:03,759 --> 00:30:07,410 I think this was something that they were anticipating and 633 00:30:07,410 --> 00:30:09,519 hopefully that can help their 634 00:30:09,519 --> 00:30:14,160 expansion efforts over at the airport. Commissioner Beck. 635 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,359 Thank you Chair. Is this 636 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:21,630 master plan available online for people to? I don't know 637 00:30:21,630 --> 00:30:24,319 for sure if it is but if it's not we can 638 00:30:24,319 --> 00:30:28,069 certainly make it available. I'll have to follow up with 639 00:30:28,069 --> 00:30:30,400 the airport folks to make sure that it is 640 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,319 available. I can't confirm it is or it is not. Okay thanks. 641 00:30:34,319 --> 00:30:40,799 This is an exciting recognition of the 642 00:30:40,799 --> 00:30:44,589 League of American Bicyclists gave the City of Den an 643 00:30:44,589 --> 00:30:48,079 honorable mention back in February of this year. 644 00:30:48,079 --> 00:30:54,400 The the city applied for a bicycle friendly I guess 645 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,799 recognition and unfortunately we weren't 646 00:30:58,799 --> 00:31:02,440 able to get a bronze or silver or gold. I think the highest 647 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,480 is applying them but we did get an 648 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:09,250 honorable mention. Our intent is to reapply again next year 649 00:31:09,250 --> 00:31:12,720 and hopefully we can get another 650 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:16,769 opportunity to come back and tell you that we got platinum. 651 00:31:16,769 --> 00:31:19,279 So that's the goal at least. So that's 652 00:31:19,279 --> 00:31:23,220 that's our charge. So Julie Anderson was in charge of this 653 00:31:23,220 --> 00:31:26,400 and she was able to at least get us an 654 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:31,200 honorable mention. Again I mentioned earlier road impact 655 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,240 fees. This was done just this past month 656 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:39,589 or last last month that is. It was adopted by council. So I 657 00:31:39,589 --> 00:31:42,480 'm not too purview as to the process 658 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,480 in which we are going to move forward but if you all don't 659 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,440 know the council did recommend or a part 660 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:54,349 of their adoption to have a fee of two thousand dollars per 661 00:31:54,349 --> 00:31:59,039 SFE single-family equivalent. I don't 662 00:31:59,039 --> 00:32:01,460 know if Earl has anything to add as far as the process but 663 00:32:01,460 --> 00:32:04,000 my understanding is still early early 664 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,799 and the process is being defined as we speak. 665 00:32:10,799 --> 00:32:14,799 That same night the council also approved the resolution 666 00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:16,799 regarding the den I'm sorry the 667 00:32:16,799 --> 00:32:21,470 renewable den plan. This is for DME to start their work and 668 00:32:21,470 --> 00:32:24,880 efforts to look at a location and move 669 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:29,150 forward with their plans for a a plant that would help 670 00:32:29,150 --> 00:32:33,359 their their their efforts in getting 70 percent 671 00:32:33,359 --> 00:32:34,160 renewable energy. 672 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,509 Last I think of these accomplishments is the public arts 673 00:32:40,509 --> 00:32:43,200 master plan. This was presented 674 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:47,109 last month. It was not adopted. The council directed the 675 00:32:47,109 --> 00:32:50,000 staff to go back and prepare for 676 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,910 a work session. The council just needed more time and 677 00:32:52,910 --> 00:32:55,759 information before they can consider this. 678 00:32:55,759 --> 00:32:59,009 I think this is a a key accomplishment because this sets 679 00:32:59,009 --> 00:33:01,519 the stage as far as what type of art 680 00:33:01,519 --> 00:33:05,069 program or art that we want in the city specifically in the 681 00:33:05,069 --> 00:33:08,000 downtown area. So hopefully this will be 682 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,809 done in the next city council meeting. Some ongoing 683 00:33:11,809 --> 00:33:15,519 implementation. We continue to implement the 684 00:33:15,519 --> 00:33:18,490 sustainability plan. We're also working on the 685 00:33:18,490 --> 00:33:21,839 environmental services programs which is headed by 686 00:33:21,839 --> 00:33:26,490 Dr. Kenny Banks. KDB has a number of programs something 687 00:33:26,490 --> 00:33:30,400 that's very familiar to some of you all. 688 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,039 One of examples is the tree giveaway but they do a lot more 689 00:33:34,039 --> 00:33:37,359 than than just that. Water and wastewater 690 00:33:37,359 --> 00:33:40,940 system capacity programs. Our departments are looking at 691 00:33:40,940 --> 00:33:43,519 how we can conserve water and and be 692 00:33:43,519 --> 00:33:46,359 a little bit more efficient in those regards. And lastly 693 00:33:46,359 --> 00:33:48,079 solid waste and recycling program. 694 00:33:48,079 --> 00:33:51,859 You know that recycling is a big deal in our community and 695 00:33:51,859 --> 00:33:53,440 so continuing with those efforts 696 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:59,680 is what the solid waste department is doing. So what does 697 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,119 this mean? This was an annual update. 698 00:34:04,559 --> 00:34:07,059 I'm sorry before I move forward were any other questions or 699 00:34:07,059 --> 00:34:08,400 any questions before 700 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:16,539 I get to my closing statement? None? Great. The next step 701 00:34:16,539 --> 00:34:19,840 or moving forward we are going to continue 702 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:24,550 to monitor and evaluate these actions. We will be working 703 00:34:24,550 --> 00:34:26,800 myself included with the technical 704 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,650 advisor committee to continue to document any key 705 00:34:29,650 --> 00:34:32,960 accomplishments. If there are any impediments we 706 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,309 will make sure we mention that and obviously if there are 707 00:34:35,309 --> 00:34:37,119 any updates that we need to present we 708 00:34:37,119 --> 00:34:40,820 will do so as well. We will continue to use the DEM plan 709 00:34:40,820 --> 00:34:44,159 2030 as our guiding document in decision 710 00:34:44,159 --> 00:34:47,980 making. We will coordinate with other departments such as 711 00:34:47,980 --> 00:34:50,159 you know water, DEM and any other departments 712 00:34:50,159 --> 00:34:55,139 to help improve or enhance their city programs. And lastly 713 00:34:55,139 --> 00:34:57,679 we will be back or I will be back 714 00:34:57,679 --> 00:35:00,889 to present to this commission hopefully next year and give 715 00:35:00,889 --> 00:35:03,119 you a little bit more update on where we 716 00:35:03,119 --> 00:35:07,280 have what we've done this coming year. So that's that's the 717 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:11,519 goal. With that that concludes my 718 00:35:11,519 --> 00:35:14,809 presentation. I am available to answer any questions that 719 00:35:14,809 --> 00:35:15,519 you may have. 720 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,159 Well done. Great thank you.

The request is 887 00:48:37,199 --> 00:48:39,599 for an initial zoning district of ECI. 888 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,869 Property was just annexed last month, therefore it does not 889 00:48:42,869 --> 00:48:44,320 have an official zoning district. 890 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,199 This would be its first.

I represent the ownership of this 913 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:57,679 property. My address is 5428 Lake Victoria Court in Flyer 914 00:49:57,679 --> 00:50:00,320 Mountain, 75022. 915 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:06,860 As Mike was saying, this property is, was just recently 916 00:50:06,860 --> 00:50:10,800 annexed. It was a 43-acre piece of 917 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:14,710 property. Roughly half of it was already in the city. The 918 00:50:14,710 --> 00:50:16,320 other half was in the ETJ. 919 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:20,309 They'll just recently annexed it and we're requesting this 920 00:50:20,309 --> 00:50:22,559 zoning to match the existing zoning on the 921 00:50:22,559 --> 00:50:25,969 remainder of the property. We ask for your favorable 922 00:50:25,969 --> 00:50:28,480 consideration. If you got any questions, I'd be 923 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:32,179 happy to try to answer them. Any questions for the 924 00:50:32,179 --> 00:50:33,599 applicant? 925 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:38,639 I see none. Thank you, sir. Thank you. 926 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,199 Again, this is a public hearing. So anyone who would like 927 00:50:43,199 --> 00:50:44,239 to speak on this item, 928 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:48,639 please come forward at this time. 929 00:50:53,599 --> 00:50:54,360 Seeing none, we will close the public hearing and open the 930 00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:57,840 floor for discussion or motion. 931 00:51:00,559 --> 00:51:02,719 Commissioner Dunham. I move to approve. 932 00:51:04,559 --> 00:51:08,260 Commissioner Beck. Second. Okay. First and a second for 933 00:51:08,260 --> 00:51:10,400 approval. Any further discussion? 934 00:51:13,519 --> 00:51:18,150 Commissioner Rossell. Thank you. I just have more of a 935 00:51:18,150 --> 00:51:18,559 clarification that maybe staff or 936 00:51:19,199 --> 00:51:25,309 someone could help out with. This ECI would butt up against 937 00:51:25,309 --> 00:51:28,320 an NR6 property. Is that generally 938 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,690 acceptable for those zonings to be so close? Is the road 939 00:51:31,690 --> 00:51:34,000 considered enough of a barrier between 940 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,059 those two? Is there any, was there any concern of that from 941 00:51:37,059 --> 00:51:38,320 a staff perspective? 942 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:42,429 What we'll do is we'll pull up the zoning map and speak to 943 00:51:42,429 --> 00:51:43,599 that to show you the physical 944 00:51:43,599 --> 00:51:45,929 separation of the zoning district associated with the 945 00:51:45,929 --> 00:51:46,719 subject site. 946 00:51:53,119 --> 00:51:56,320 So the NR6 you're referring to is right here. We do 947 00:51:56,320 --> 00:52:00,800 oftentimes see employment centers and 948 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:04,090 even industrial centers, but residential zoning quite often 949 00:52:04,090 --> 00:52:04,639 . Okay. 950 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,380 And of course the ordinance has specific parameters in 951 00:52:09,380 --> 00:52:11,119 terms of separation through 952 00:52:11,119 --> 00:52:14,019 the buffer requirement, depending on what type of use is 953 00:52:14,019 --> 00:52:14,719 adjacent to 954 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:19,409 to the subject property. Secondly, if you notice the 955 00:52:19,409 --> 00:52:21,760 subject property is separated by a right of 956 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:26,000 way as well. Sure. Thank you. Go ahead.
