WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.679
meeting for December 13th. This will be our work session.

00:00:04.679 --> 00:00:06.240
This meeting has been

00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:09.519
duly posted and we do have a full quorum here and I will

00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:11.480
call us to order at 5 0

00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:15.539
6 and our first order of business will be to receive

00:00:15.539 --> 00:00:17.160
clarification of agenda

00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:31.629
items and does anybody have anything on the minutes? We'll

00:00:31.629 --> 00:00:33.640
move on to the consent

00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:43.079
agenda. Any questions on the first item A? Flat, Den Energy

00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:47.920
Center. No questions?

00:00:47.920 --> 00:01:07.510
On the flat. Item B. Any questions on item B? Nothing on

00:01:07.510 --> 00:01:11.640
item B. How about item C?

00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:22.480
Nothing? Okay. I've got a question. Okay. Julie, item C. D

00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:31.840
irt Whisperer. It's the

00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:37.799
Dirt Whisperer LLC Audra Heights edition preliminary class.

00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:42.040
Yes sir. On phase one I

00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:47.959
was curious, you know, is there kind of a tree requirement

00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:50.079
as I drove down that

00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:55.519
down this down the road on Bayfield Road. It doesn't seem

00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:57.120
to be a lot of trees

00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:01.310
there or it just seems like concrete all the way through

00:02:01.310 --> 00:02:02.680
but when the rest of the

00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:06.819
neighborhood, you know, you have real pretty lots, large

00:02:06.819 --> 00:02:08.599
lots, but you hit that

00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:12.219
that section right there where they built all those are

00:02:12.219 --> 00:02:13.560
they duplexes or

00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:18.639
townhouses? The phase one I believe is duplexes. So chapter

00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:19.520
13 does have

00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:23.039
requirements for street trees for single-family residential

00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:24.199
. I don't know

00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:27.949
specifically on that project how those street trees were

00:02:27.949 --> 00:02:29.159
installed or where

00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:32.419
they were installed so I'm not real sure on that phase one.

00:02:32.419 --> 00:02:33.599
Okay I was just

00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:36.360
curious do they go back because they doesn't seem to be a

00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:37.240
whole lot it just

00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:39.199
seems like a lot of concrete. You have the rest of

00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:40.479
neighborhood that's really

00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:44.349
nice and you drive back down into that Bayfield Street and

00:02:44.349 --> 00:02:44.960
it just hits you

00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:48.430
like this doesn't belong here. I know that phase two they

00:02:48.430 --> 00:02:49.639
will be required to

00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:54.069
comply with all sub chapter 13 requirements in terms of I

00:02:54.069 --> 00:02:54.759
believe

00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:58.680
there's a street tree required for every certain number of

00:02:58.680 --> 00:02:59.840
feet or for every lot

00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:03.680
in a single-family residential area and and then they'd

00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:05.120
also have to comply with

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:09.750
all tree preservation requirements too. Okay and also if

00:03:09.750 --> 00:03:12.120
you look at phase one

00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:21.289
it's got like a lot 18 a and b but on phase two you have

00:03:21.289 --> 00:03:23.199
just numbers. Is that

00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:28.050
I guess I was are they each building is going to just have

00:03:28.050 --> 00:03:29.360
one lot is that the

00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:32.349
way normally? Yes sir phase two is actually a townhome

00:03:32.349 --> 00:03:33.319
product that's what

00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:37.719
they're intending and so on a townhome each each individual

00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:38.719
townhome is on its

00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:42.289
own lot and then they would and then you know the the

00:03:42.289 --> 00:03:43.719
building they can have eight

00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:47.900
attached so each individual townhome will be on its own lot

00:03:47.900 --> 00:03:49.000
and that's also

00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:52.199
why they're actually doing an alley for this phase as well

00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:53.039
so there won't be any

00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:57.719
any front-end parking it will be alleys.

00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:02.469
Is that the stage question? Yeah I would just I guess how

00:04:02.469 --> 00:04:04.560
it's my concern was okay so

00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:07.719
phase one and I guess I'm just trying to compare both

00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:09.159
phases you know and see

00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:12.180
what how much difference is gonna be and one of the things

00:04:12.180 --> 00:04:13.639
I want to make sure is

00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:18.759
as far as trees and cover that kind of vegetation I would

00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:20.800
like to see a lot

00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:24.120
make make sure that that is implemented because that other

00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:25.720
site look I would I

00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:28.319
was it just it's just an eyesore. Sure and I think phase

00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:29.319
two will actually look

00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.620
different from phase one because of that alley because it

00:04:31.620 --> 00:04:32.399
won't have those

00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:34.649
driveways in the front so I think it'll probably look a

00:04:34.649 --> 00:04:35.639
little different from

00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:39.220
this cheap street than phase one does. Okay and one more

00:04:39.220 --> 00:04:40.079
thing what about the

00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:44.209
the the I've noticed in that phase one there's a lot of

00:04:44.209 --> 00:04:45.959
parking on the on the

00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:50.139
along the road on the inside of the street so is there I

00:04:50.139 --> 00:04:51.199
know that there's a

00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:56.339
requirement how do you determine I guess I'm just trying to

00:04:56.339 --> 00:04:57.519
it seems like that

00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:59.889
maybe there's not enough parking because from what I

00:04:59.889 --> 00:05:01.079
understand and I was talking

00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:04.879
to a couple of residents a lot of that is for student house

00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:05.560
it's considered

00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:09.750
there's a lot of students living there and they're not

00:05:09.750 --> 00:05:11.040
being sold it's just

00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:14.639
they're just being rented to students so you have a lot of

00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:16.040
parking on the street

00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:20.839
is there any way of compared I'm just trying to figure out

00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:22.279
it doesn't look

00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:25.790
really well and it's hard for people when you're driving

00:05:25.790 --> 00:05:27.000
you have to kind of

00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:29.689
pull over to the side because all this street is just

00:05:29.689 --> 00:05:31.040
covered with cars. I'm

00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.360
looking at Richard because I know this isn't we're actually

00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:35.079
working on that

00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:39.019
looking at addressing that now through a multitude of

00:05:39.019 --> 00:05:40.439
issues associated with that

00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:46.040
part part of that although this is an NR6 you have NR6 has

00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:46.980
reduced setback of 10

00:05:46.980 --> 00:05:49.819
feet which really pushes out the house so it's with a one

00:05:49.819 --> 00:05:50.839
car garage so it's

00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:54.339
kind of hard to get really more than two maybe three spots

00:05:54.339 --> 00:05:55.240
to begin with

00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:58.740
coupled with narrow right away so once you start cramming

00:05:58.740 --> 00:05:59.860
all that in and you

00:05:59.860 --> 00:06:04.550
have a family with or even students with three four or five

00:06:04.550 --> 00:06:06.079
cars it fills up

00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:10.350
quick but we are looking at that item and how to address

00:06:10.350 --> 00:06:11.360
that right right now

00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:13.060
and you'll see that I think it was in the next couple

00:06:13.060 --> 00:06:13.759
months as part of the

00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:26.279
DDC update. Anybody else on item C? Item D is going to move

00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:28.040
down to items for

00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:32.259
individual consideration so we'll go on to four which is

00:06:32.259 --> 00:06:33.839
going to be the planning

00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:36.300
and zoning Commission calendar we had a couple changes I

00:06:36.300 --> 00:06:37.160
think we talked about

00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:43.300
at last meeting and we're going to come back. And what

00:06:43.300 --> 00:06:46.680
changed for February and

00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.800
March instead of second and fourth it's first and third.

00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:56.560
February and March.

00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:07.300
Anybody else have a question or a conflict on the calendar?

00:07:07.300 --> 00:07:12.079
Okay item B.

00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:16.319
B. Haley.

00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:27.430
All right this item is a site plan for two multi-tenant

00:07:27.430 --> 00:07:28.199
buildings in Razor

00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:32.569
Ranch. So the request is for approval of a site plan like I

00:07:32.569 --> 00:07:33.079
said for two

00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:37.220
multi-tenant buildings to be located on lot 6R and 7R of

00:07:37.220 --> 00:07:38.199
block A of the town

00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:42.589
center. You see on the map here the property is outlined in

00:07:42.589 --> 00:07:43.319
yellow it's a

00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.839
little over three acres located at the southwest corner of

00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:47.600
University and

00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:51.319
Heritage Trail so that would be in front of the Wynko Foods

00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:51.720
if you're familiar

00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:57.480
with the area. This particular parcel is a zoned South RR2

00:07:57.480 --> 00:07:58.839
district so that's

00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:02.879
that primarily retail commercial restaurant type uses that

00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:03.279
we've seen

00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:07.329
over the past few months. If you remember site plans for

00:08:07.329 --> 00:08:08.600
Razor Ranch are all

00:08:08.600 --> 00:08:11.769
required to comply with the architectural and landscape

00:08:11.769 --> 00:08:12.240
standards

00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:15.209
outlined in the overlay district and with their site plan

00:08:15.209 --> 00:08:16.319
they're required to

00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:18.610
submit not not just the site plan itself but also a

00:08:18.610 --> 00:08:19.860
landscape plan and building

00:08:19.860 --> 00:08:24.720
elevations for consideration. The overlay also outlines

00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:26.639
criteria for approval so

00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:29.620
the P&Z shall approve a site plan if it substantially compl

00:08:29.620 --> 00:08:30.720
ies with the concept

00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.590
and schematic plan, if it provides a compatible arrangement

00:08:33.590 --> 00:08:34.440
of buildings and

00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:37.460
uses and doesn't adversely affect any neighboring

00:08:37.460 --> 00:08:39.039
properties, if it provides

00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.509
for safe and adequate circulation of traffic and if it

00:08:41.509 --> 00:08:42.399
complies with all

00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:47.450
sections of the overlay. Commissioner Beck. Thank you chair

00:08:47.450 --> 00:08:49.120
. How are we supposed to

00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:51.970
know if it provides a compatible arrangement of buildings

00:08:51.970 --> 00:08:53.159
and land use that would not

00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:55.529
adversely affect the joint neighborhoods if we don't know

00:08:55.529 --> 00:08:56.500
specifically what's

00:08:56.500 --> 00:08:58.379
going to be going in there all we know is they're gonna

00:08:58.379 --> 00:09:00.000
make this? The intent I

00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:02.379
believe in the overlays referring to areas outside of Razor

00:09:02.379 --> 00:09:02.919
Ranch so would

00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:06.740
this particular piece of Razor affect anything outside of

00:09:06.740 --> 00:09:08.159
the overlay? In this

00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:11.120
case it's not really touching anything outside the overlay.

00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:12.120
So regardless of

00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:14.450
what's going to go in these buildings? I think the

00:09:14.450 --> 00:09:16.440
assumption is everything commercial within

00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:22.759
Razor would kind of be compatible by nature. So looking at

00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:23.720
their site plan

00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:27.580
into here as I mentioned it's two separate lots so on lot 6

00:09:27.580 --> 00:09:28.480
R we have about

00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:32.919
8800 square feet of building and then lot 7R has about 8700

00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:34.399
square feet and

00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:36.399
these will just be a mixture of commercial uses I would

00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:37.059
imagine retail

00:09:37.059 --> 00:09:40.730
restaurant things of that nature. It requires a minimum of

00:09:40.730 --> 00:09:42.200
108 parking spaces

00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:45.480
they're providing 132 if you remember there's no parking

00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:46.679
maximum at Razor so

00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:50.070
they can provide those extra spaces and then access to the

00:09:50.070 --> 00:09:51.039
site rather than

00:09:51.039 --> 00:09:53.669
being directly from University or Heritage Trail will be

00:09:53.669 --> 00:09:54.200
from these

00:09:54.200 --> 00:10:00.009
internal streets. Looking at their landscaping they're

00:10:00.009 --> 00:10:01.240
proposing a total

00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:06.789
29% landscaping overall 37.5% tree canopy for the site. I

00:10:06.789 --> 00:10:07.919
've kind of done

00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:10.049
two different colors here so the lighter green color is

00:10:10.049 --> 00:10:10.960
actually existing

00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:13.970
landscaping that was installed prior to this development so

00:10:13.970 --> 00:10:14.919
all of that will be

00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:18.509
maintained in place to provide screening and street trees

00:10:18.509 --> 00:10:20.080
along University and

00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:22.570
Heritage Trail and then what is in the darker green is the

00:10:22.570 --> 00:10:23.240
new internal

00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:26.460
landscaping for the site in the parking lot. And then in

00:10:26.460 --> 00:10:27.799
blue here there is a

00:10:27.799 --> 00:10:31.500
plaza area being provided just over 2,000 square feet will

00:10:31.500 --> 00:10:32.519
have trees and

00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:37.600
some shaded seating by means of tables and benches. Looking

00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:38.440
at the buildings

00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:42.799
proposed lot 6R these are the elevations so mixture of

00:10:42.799 --> 00:10:43.879
materials the typical

00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:47.720
stone and ephas materials with the neutral color palette.

00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:49.360
Lot 7R very

00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:54.159
similar elevation and materials being proposed there. Staff

00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:55.320
is recommending

00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:58.009
approval of the site plan we found it to be compliant with

00:10:58.009 --> 00:10:58.559
all of the

00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:01.320
regulations within the overlay and found that it met those

00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:02.399
criteria for approval

00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:05.250
that we discussed. So I can stand for any questions.

00:11:05.250 --> 00:11:06.039
Commissioner Smith. On the

00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:10.230
entrances you had on, do you want to go back to that slide

00:11:10.230 --> 00:11:12.120
real quick?

00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:19.720
On the site plan, yeah. So they're entering either off of

00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:21.240
those two side

00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:24.759
roads off of University, am I correct? Yes sir. Either of

00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:26.559
those, do we know either of those, are those

00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:28.620
going to be, are those going to have access to the west

00:11:28.620 --> 00:11:30.840
bound turn? Does that make sense? If you're on the

00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:33.419
north side of Razor Ranch or sometimes there's areas where

00:11:33.419 --> 00:11:34.399
you get inlet you can

00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:37.490
only go westbound you can't cross away. Let me see if that

00:11:37.490 --> 00:11:39.919
shows up. I mean you can kind of see on the

00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:42.509
aerial here there will be east-west connectivity here on

00:11:42.509 --> 00:11:43.279
the south side of the

00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:44.980
lots. People trying to get back on University is my big

00:11:44.980 --> 00:11:46.799
question. Yeah so there would there would be there's a

00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:47.720
signal here currently.

00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:49.879
Let's go all the way down there. Yeah so that road will

00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:51.919
connect there and then there is an intent for a

00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:55.519
signal at Heritage Trail. Thank you.

00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:12.289
Anybody else? Thank you Haley. Thank you. And item 4C is an

00:12:12.289 --> 00:12:13.000
item that I have a

00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:16.159
conflict of interest in. I have a partnership interest in

00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:16.919
that so I'm going

00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:20.500
to need to recuse myself both here at work session and in

00:12:20.500 --> 00:12:21.480
the public meeting.

00:12:21.480 --> 00:12:26.960
So I'm going to turn it over to the vice chair. Thank you

00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:29.200
chair. Let him leave.

00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:41.360
Commissioner Ellis. Thank you. Thank you vice chair. What I

00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:43.639
think he said 4C I don't see a 4C on my

00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:46.809
agenda. Did we move something? Yeah there's an agenda

00:12:46.809 --> 00:12:48.200
change from the consent

00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:54.000
agenda item 3D. Okay we pulled 3D. Okay. Yeah. Did not

00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:55.120
realize that. Thank you very

00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:57.639
much.

00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:03.019
Julie the floor is yours. All right so this is one you

00:13:03.019 --> 00:13:04.919
might be familiar with. The

00:13:04.919 --> 00:13:08.570
preliminary plat for Evers Way was approved in September of

00:13:08.570 --> 00:13:09.679
this year. This

00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:13.629
is now coming back with the final plat. There are some

00:13:13.629 --> 00:13:15.679
conditions that stack

00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:18.399
requests that we put on the approval and that's why it's

00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:19.279
being pulled for

00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:21.250
individual consideration. So I know those are in your

00:13:21.250 --> 00:13:22.200
backup but I'll just talk

00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:25.960
talk through them briefly. First that the civil engineering

00:13:25.960 --> 00:13:27.000
construction plan for

00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:30.230
West Hercules Lane and all public infrastructure necessary

00:13:30.230 --> 00:13:30.919
to serve the

00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:34.259
proposed development must be approved before this plat is

00:13:34.259 --> 00:13:36.259
filed. If any utility

00:13:36.259 --> 00:13:38.929
easement locations need to be modified as a result of these

00:13:38.929 --> 00:13:39.919
construction plans

00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:44.379
that the DRC that it could be approved at the staff level

00:13:44.379 --> 00:13:46.159
prior to filing. So

00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:48.990
that that's the first condition. The second is that they

00:13:48.990 --> 00:13:50.120
have to obtain a

00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:54.049
text dot permit to allow access in and improvements to

00:13:54.049 --> 00:13:55.600
North Locust Street

00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:59.750
prior to plat filing and that a traffic the traffic impact

00:13:59.750 --> 00:14:00.960
analysis that's been

00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.250
submitted must be approved before the plat is filed. So

00:14:03.250 --> 00:14:04.279
those would be the three

00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:07.610
conditions that staff is requesting on this approval and I

00:14:07.610 --> 00:14:08.639
'll stand for any

00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:15.860
questions. So any questions? Commissioner Smith. Thank you

00:14:15.860 --> 00:14:16.879
Vice Chair. What are the

00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:19.610
reasonings behind the conditions you just briefly give

00:14:19.610 --> 00:14:20.519
especially on like

00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:23.100
that sounds like the permit for the for a text dot sounds

00:14:23.100 --> 00:14:24.279
like a pretty pretty

00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:27.490
expensive condition to put on the developer. It would be

00:14:27.490 --> 00:14:27.919
required

00:14:27.919 --> 00:14:31.799
regardless. They are whenever someone ties into a text dot

00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:32.720
road they have to

00:14:32.720 --> 00:14:37.669
obtain that that permit so instead of holding up the final

00:14:37.669 --> 00:14:38.519
plat the approval

00:14:38.519 --> 00:14:41.679
of that final plat we've gone ahead that and requested that

00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:43.120
that be a condition

00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.070
of filing so that they can move forward with the approval

00:14:46.070 --> 00:14:47.080
and then get those

00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:50.720
those expensive permits and those expensive engineering

00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:51.980
plans completed

00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:54.809
between that gap between the approval and the filing of the

00:14:54.809 --> 00:14:56.240
plat. Okay. Just

00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:58.700
wondering I just don't why why I ended up on the consent

00:14:58.700 --> 00:14:59.679
agenda instead of rather

00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:02.200
ending up on the items for an individual consideration

00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:04.039
before then but just if

00:15:04.039 --> 00:15:08.480
that's normal why wasn't on there the first place. Well it

00:15:08.480 --> 00:15:09.039
should have been on

00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:11.690
the individual consideration from the beginning so because

00:15:11.690 --> 00:15:12.159
there are

00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:15.330
conditions associated with it it would have to be

00:15:15.330 --> 00:15:16.919
considered independently.

00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:22.399
Julie I have one question just for a procedural standpoint

00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:23.960
we approve the

00:15:23.960 --> 00:15:28.149
plat so they can proceed but nothing is filed with the city

00:15:28.149 --> 00:15:28.879
for actual

00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:32.350
construction so these conditions are met. Yes sir. And who

00:15:32.350 --> 00:15:33.279
verifies these

00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:35.980
conditions are met before it gets filed what's the

00:15:35.980 --> 00:15:37.720
procedure there? Staff would

00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:43.980
verify so they already have they already have two two

00:15:43.980 --> 00:15:45.679
permits in one or

00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:48.309
two projects in one being the civil engineering plans that

00:15:48.309 --> 00:15:49.360
are being reviewed

00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:52.870
and that's in association with the West Hercules Lane as

00:15:52.870 --> 00:15:54.120
well as the utility

00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:57.690
improvements and improvements associated with this plat.

00:15:57.690 --> 00:16:00.120
They've already they will

00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:04.399
begin working on that text dot permit shortly and then they

00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:04.919
've already

00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:07.559
submitted for that traffic impact analysis and they're

00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:08.559
working through the

00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:13.580
review of that now so so those projects would have to be

00:16:13.580 --> 00:16:14.759
complete and that would

00:16:14.759 --> 00:16:18.909
be monitored by staff both planning and engineering. And

00:16:18.909 --> 00:16:21.960
traditionally are these

00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:25.429
done after a plat is approved or is this just a time and

00:16:25.429 --> 00:16:26.519
issue like can they talk

00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:32.039
to text not before P&Z approves a plat? Certainly yes that

00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:32.919
typically what

00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:35.940
happened before is all of this stuff was was was required

00:16:35.940 --> 00:16:36.960
to be done prior to

00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:39.539
bringing it for approval and so what we're trying to do is

00:16:39.539 --> 00:16:40.360
help expedite it

00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:43.070
in a way and so rather than requiring all of this and

00:16:43.070 --> 00:16:44.240
having the plat even

00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:46.700
though it meets all the all the material requirements of

00:16:46.700 --> 00:16:48.080
the code sort of sit in

00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:50.720
limbo we're trying to get it through at least through the

00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:51.720
approval phase to

00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:54.299
assist with trying to secure any financing and then address

00:16:54.299 --> 00:16:54.879
some of these

00:16:54.879 --> 00:16:59.320
permit related issues as a condition since there's that two

00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:01.559
-year gap.

00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:07.440
Any other questions? Thank you Vice Chair. Then I guess

00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:08.480
just for clarification as

00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:14.079
we're voting on this we'll approve it the plat with staff's

00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:15.240
conditions do we

00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:18.960
need to restate them? I mean I know they're written on the

00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:23.079
plat so. Okay very

00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:28.569
good thank you. Thank you Julie and we will call the chair

00:17:28.569 --> 00:17:30.680
back in.

00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:53.960
We'll move us to our public hearing section. We have one

00:17:53.960 --> 00:18:03.119
change on item A the

00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:03.119
date certain on that's been moved from the 10th to the 24th

00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:09.799
so we'll do look

00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:09.799
for a motion on that we'll open it look for a motion to

00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:14.119
continue to date certain

00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:14.119
leave open B C and D have all been withdrawn so we will not

00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:22.480
even open

00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:26.980
those items tonight and that will move us to item C excuse

00:18:26.980 --> 00:18:29.160
me E and we'll call

00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:33.519
on Julie Wyatt for that presentation.

00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:43.900
All right so this public hearing item is for some lots in

00:18:43.900 --> 00:18:48.160
our downtown area it is

00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:55.279
a replat of several lots within a block area and this is

00:18:55.279 --> 00:18:56.640
for redevelopment on a

00:18:56.640 --> 00:19:01.269
site and I will stand for any questions. Commissioner Beck.

00:19:01.269 --> 00:19:02.799
Thank You Chair. I'm

00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:08.519
assuming that lots four five and six are is that the old

00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:09.539
Denrick Chronicle

00:19:09.539 --> 00:19:15.759
building? Yes sir. Okay so I'm assuming that'll be torn

00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:16.839
down and then these lots

00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:21.119
will accommodate? It is my understanding yes that there's

00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:21.960
gonna be some sort of

00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:32.690
redevelopment on those sites. Any other questions on this

00:19:32.690 --> 00:19:35.279
item? Okay.

00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:43.700
Let's see F? Julie are you gonna do F and G kind of

00:19:43.700 --> 00:19:48.319
concurrent like we did? I am. That's a lucky guess.

00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:57.200
All right so we are taking two items concurrently the Z 17

00:19:57.200 --> 00:19:58.880
12 and S 176

00:19:58.880 --> 00:20:03.680
because they are a part of one project the Mingo Road Apart

00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:06.160
ments. So first Z 1712

00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:08.430
is a request to rezone the subject property from

00:20:08.430 --> 00:20:09.759
neighborhood residential

00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:14.430
three to neighborhood residential 12 mixed use 12 NRMU 12

00:20:14.430 --> 00:20:16.319
and that's that Z

00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:20.640
1712 the second request is a specific use permit to allow a

00:20:20.640 --> 00:20:21.400
multifamily

00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:25.720
residential use. To orient you the subject property is

00:20:25.720 --> 00:20:26.960
located north of

00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:33.789
Mingo Road it is just just west of Boyd on southwest of Boy

00:20:33.789 --> 00:20:35.759
d and it's near the

00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:41.559
TWU campus. TWU campus is off to the west here. Under

00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:42.799
current zoning the subject

00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:46.839
property has an is NR3 district and they are proposing to

00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:48.720
extend the existing

00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:54.059
adjacent NRMU 12 so to look like this. The criteria for

00:20:54.059 --> 00:20:55.640
approval and rezoning

00:20:55.640 --> 00:20:58.240
cases are in subchapter 3 of the Denton Development Code.

00:20:58.240 --> 00:20:59.440
First does it conform

00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:02.529
to the future land use element of the Denton Plan 2030 and

00:21:02.529 --> 00:21:03.359
then second does

00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:06.960
the proposed rezoning facilitate the provision of adequate

00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:08.000
infrastructure.

00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:11.470
First we'll look at the future land use element. This is in

00:21:11.470 --> 00:21:12.440
a neighborhood

00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:17.140
university compatibility area. The intent of this area is

00:21:17.140 --> 00:21:18.960
to provide compatible

00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:22.539
housing and services to serve not only the universities but

00:21:22.539 --> 00:21:23.519
also the nearby

00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:28.390
neighborhoods. The code the Denton Plan 2030 talks about

00:21:28.390 --> 00:21:29.700
how current

00:21:29.700 --> 00:21:32.279
enrollment as well as future enrollment is going to require

00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:32.799
going to need

00:21:32.799 --> 00:21:36.269
additional housing within these areas and services and so

00:21:36.269 --> 00:21:37.200
these these areas

00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:41.359
surrounding these neighborhood neighborhood I mean these

00:21:41.359 --> 00:21:41.839
areas

00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:45.099
surrounding the campuses are intended to provide that

00:21:45.099 --> 00:21:46.480
housing and the necessary

00:21:46.480 --> 00:21:50.119
services for the student population as well as the nearby

00:21:50.119 --> 00:21:51.559
neighborhoods. Staff

00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:54.650
has determined that the proposed NRMU 12 does meet the

00:21:54.650 --> 00:21:55.480
future land use

00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:59.950
designation. NRMU 12 has moderate density housing as well

00:21:59.950 --> 00:22:01.920
as some small scale

00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:04.559
commercial uses that really fit the bill for the

00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:06.119
neighborhood university

00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:09.539
compatibility area because it does provide additional

00:22:09.539 --> 00:22:10.640
housing as well as

00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:13.950
some of those services but at that smaller scale where it

00:22:13.950 --> 00:22:14.359
can be

00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:17.940
compatible with residential. When we look at the public

00:22:17.940 --> 00:22:20.119
facilities first water and

00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:23.430
sewer there is water and sewer nearby on Mingo there

00:22:23.430 --> 00:22:24.799
probably will be extensions

00:22:24.799 --> 00:22:27.700
required of those at Platting and that will be something

00:22:27.700 --> 00:22:28.400
that will be

00:22:28.400 --> 00:22:31.380
determined by our engineering department at Platting.

00:22:31.380 --> 00:22:32.279
Impact fees would be

00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:35.660
assessed at building permit as well. Mingo Road is

00:22:35.660 --> 00:22:37.559
currently developed as a

00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:40.819
two-lane undivided road. On the mobility plan it is

00:22:40.819 --> 00:22:42.480
classified as a secondary

00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:47.079
arterial. Typically secondary arterials are a four lane

00:22:47.079 --> 00:22:48.519
divided road with five

00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:52.710
foot sidewalks and it's currently not developed according

00:22:52.710 --> 00:22:53.839
to those secondary

00:22:53.839 --> 00:22:58.200
arterial standards. At Platting some additional dedications

00:22:58.200 --> 00:22:59.880
and improvements

00:22:59.880 --> 00:23:04.740
such as sidewalks would be required. We look at the

00:23:04.740 --> 00:23:06.680
compatibility of the area

00:23:06.680 --> 00:23:10.390
with the surrounding development and zoning pattern. We see

00:23:10.390 --> 00:23:11.859
that the location

00:23:11.859 --> 00:23:15.029
of the site as well as the adjacent development pattern

00:23:15.029 --> 00:23:16.160
suggests that it's

00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:19.319
unlikely to develop with single-family residential uses. So

00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:20.759
if we just look take

00:23:20.759 --> 00:23:24.430
a look at the site first of all it is it is accessed on M

00:23:24.430 --> 00:23:25.920
ingo Road so it's only

00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:29.509
access is on a secondary arterial and those adjacent

00:23:29.509 --> 00:23:30.880
neighborhoods are

00:23:30.880 --> 00:23:33.890
developed in such a way that there's no vehicular access to

00:23:33.890 --> 00:23:34.839
this site so it's

00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:39.039
really cut off from those neighborhoods. So it wouldn't

00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:40.920
this is unlikely to

00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:43.519
develop develop with its own just single-family

00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:44.319
neighborhood in this

00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:47.980
location. When we look at what the proposed zoning is as I

00:23:47.980 --> 00:23:49.119
said before it's

00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:53.309
intended to be compatible with residential areas. It's

00:23:53.309 --> 00:23:53.759
supposed to be

00:23:53.759 --> 00:23:56.279
placed near there so it can provide those day-to-day

00:23:56.279 --> 00:23:57.599
services and those

00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:00.799
different housing types those moderate density housing

00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:03.680
types. So it has the

00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:06.190
the limitations on the scale and development that that

00:24:06.190 --> 00:24:06.819
would make it

00:24:06.819 --> 00:24:10.440
compatible. Any development on this site because of the way

00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:11.400
it's situated would

00:24:11.400 --> 00:24:15.519
require buffers if it wasn't a single-family use. An NRMU

00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:16.720
12 is a

00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:21.819
logical extension of the existing NRMU 12 to the west and

00:24:21.819 --> 00:24:23.440
also this this lot is

00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:26.910
an infill lot and our Dent Plan 2030 talks about infill

00:24:26.910 --> 00:24:27.799
development it talks

00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:32.299
about how we want these these sites to be developed and to

00:24:32.299 --> 00:24:33.359
provide additional

00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:37.920
housing for for the city. So this this meets that criteria

00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:39.240
within the Dent Plan

00:24:39.240 --> 00:24:44.680
2030. So based upon this criteria staff recommends approval

00:24:44.680 --> 00:24:45.400
of the zoning case

00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:49.440
because it's consistent with the with Dent Plan 2030 as

00:24:49.440 --> 00:24:50.319
well as it does

00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:53.529
encourage that infill development but at a scale that's

00:24:53.529 --> 00:24:54.720
compatible with the

00:24:54.720 --> 00:24:58.690
surrounding zoning and development pattern. Do y'all have

00:24:58.690 --> 00:25:00.799
any questions on the zoning?

00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:05.799
Commissioner Smith. Thank you Chair. On

00:25:06.759 --> 00:25:10.180
the availability given an overlay if we want to I can't

00:25:10.180 --> 00:25:11.359
remember and we've had

00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:14.039
in a couple things in the past we're doing rezoning or

00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:15.039
during the zoning

00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.309
process I can't remember if our NRMU 12 were allowed to say

00:25:18.309 --> 00:25:19.599
we want to put an overlay on this

00:25:19.599 --> 00:25:23.750
saying you can't use this certain usage and requirement for

00:25:23.750 --> 00:25:24.559
foliage and

00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:27.470
everything else on there. Can we do that NRMU 12? I do

00:25:27.470 --> 00:25:28.599
believe the residential

00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:32.180
mixed-use protection overlay does apply to the NRMU 12

00:25:32.180 --> 00:25:33.680
zoning district because

00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:47.269
this is in let me get my code just to verify. I seem to

00:25:47.269 --> 00:25:48.079
always be wrong when I

00:25:48.079 --> 00:25:53.400
try to quote it from memory so it's best just to check.

00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:07.569
Yes that would that residential the mixed-use residential

00:26:07.569 --> 00:26:12.440
protection overlay

00:26:12.440 --> 00:26:18.000
would be applicable in this instance. Yes sir. Do we have a

00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:19.920
timeline on they're

00:26:19.920 --> 00:26:19.920
saying it's a primary that said you said primary or

00:26:19.920 --> 00:26:23.559
secondary arterial? Secondary.

00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:23.559
Is there a timeline on four-lane expansion? I talked to

00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:29.440
engineering and I

00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:33.839
don't believe any any improvements for that entire segment

00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:35.319
of the road is are

00:26:35.319 --> 00:26:39.509
imminent but with the development they would be required to

00:26:39.509 --> 00:26:40.079
at least do things

00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:42.869
like put in sidewalks. The so the question I was gonna have

00:26:42.869 --> 00:26:43.519
next was then

00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:46.849
that next door location is I think it's Primrose it's a

00:26:46.849 --> 00:26:48.839
senior center community

00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:52.420
you they if you you can't see it on that picture if you

00:26:52.420 --> 00:26:54.039
zoom in on that in their

00:26:54.039 --> 00:26:56.200
entrance right next to which obviously that's a multifamily

00:26:56.200 --> 00:26:57.480
development that

00:26:57.480 --> 00:27:00.910
entrance there has the I don't know what you call them and

00:27:00.910 --> 00:27:02.000
I'm not the engineer

00:27:02.000 --> 00:27:04.900
they have the breakaway where you can turn in right so you

00:27:04.900 --> 00:27:06.000
can you can if

00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:09.960
they're turning into the development they can divert away

00:27:09.960 --> 00:27:10.920
from the through

00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:14.210
traffic to turn into the development. Is there a way or

00:27:14.210 --> 00:27:15.799
anything we can do to be

00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:18.400
able to make sure that gets done during this process if it

00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:19.160
's something like

00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:22.430
we're not gonna expand mingo yet we have no plans for it.

00:27:22.430 --> 00:27:24.000
Is there a way for us as

00:27:24.000 --> 00:27:25.819
a planning is under commission be able to make that a

00:27:25.819 --> 00:27:26.759
requirement you feel like

00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:29.740
it's necessary? That is typically something that's looked

00:27:29.740 --> 00:27:31.119
at at the

00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:34.640
platting phase and that is determined on on the

00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:36.680
infrastructure available and the

00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:44.410
trips generation generated by the use. I'm not sure. I just

00:27:44.410 --> 00:27:45.519
want and you can see

00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:48.849
on the neighborhood ride-ins that there's a lot of folks

00:27:48.849 --> 00:27:49.319
are worried about

00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:52.680
traffic and she will say that you know we're there's gonna

00:27:52.680 --> 00:27:53.599
be the ability for

00:27:53.599 --> 00:27:56.950
us to say you have to have that diversion off of the 33

00:27:56.950 --> 00:27:57.799
traffic so the

00:27:57.799 --> 00:28:00.089
people going into the apartment complex get out of the way

00:28:00.089 --> 00:28:00.759
everyone is just

00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:04.019
trying to drive down mingo makes easier for us but that

00:28:04.019 --> 00:28:06.799
works thank you.

00:28:08.359 --> 00:28:11.049
You know the only question I have is we have a number of

00:28:11.049 --> 00:28:13.599
cards in opposition but

00:28:13.599 --> 00:28:18.279
on the notification map there's nothing on our backup. Will

00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:19.160
we be able to get

00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:22.319
those posted before meeting or during meeting presentation?

00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:23.579
I have I have them

00:28:23.579 --> 00:28:28.650
map on on the presentation so I'll that will hopefully

00:28:28.650 --> 00:28:30.200
illustrate where that

00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:35.809
opposition is. So we'll look at the specific use permit

00:28:35.809 --> 00:28:36.720
next and what

00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:40.039
they're proposing so they're proposing 48 two-bedroom units

00:28:40.039 --> 00:28:41.440
with outdoor

00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:46.069
recreation space. Two-story buildings is the maximum they

00:28:46.069 --> 00:28:47.599
're proposing. They're

00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:51.180
also they're also site plan reflects that the that the

00:28:51.180 --> 00:28:52.319
buildings are set back

00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:55.500
from the residential so you could see in this location here

00:28:55.500 --> 00:28:56.319
and in this location

00:28:56.319 --> 00:28:58.920
here those buildings are set back from those residential

00:28:58.920 --> 00:29:00.359
areas. They will also

00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:03.349
have to meet all landscape buffer requirements and street

00:29:03.349 --> 00:29:03.640
tree

00:29:03.640 --> 00:29:06.799
requirements along bingo and their buildings are proposed

00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:07.640
to have masonry

00:29:07.640 --> 00:29:13.119
and stone accents and here are the conceptual elevations of

00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:13.759
their of their

00:29:13.759 --> 00:29:18.880
proposed multi-family this this would face mingo and then

00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:19.720
and then there would

00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:23.849
be stairs and entry from the rear. The criteria for

00:29:23.849 --> 00:29:25.920
approval for a specific use

00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:29.920
permit is essentially a compatibility analysis to to ensure

00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:31.119
that the proposed

00:29:31.119 --> 00:29:37.740
use conforms to and is is fits in within the area and the

00:29:37.740 --> 00:29:38.559
character of the area

00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:44.039
that it is proposed to go. We look at whether the use would

00:29:44.039 --> 00:29:45.519
impede the orderly

00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:48.210
development of the surrounding property. We look at the

00:29:48.210 --> 00:29:49.400
parking the generation of

00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:53.589
traffic and access. We look at nuisance prevention whether

00:29:53.589 --> 00:29:54.200
there's adequate

00:29:54.200 --> 00:29:56.490
landscaping and screening and whether the the buildings are

00:29:56.490 --> 00:29:57.240
architecturally

00:29:57.240 --> 00:30:00.819
compatible with the surrounding area. So we looked at what

00:30:00.819 --> 00:30:02.000
they're proposing

00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:05.240
staff. Staff determined that they are consistent with the

00:30:05.240 --> 00:30:06.759
Denton plan 2030.

00:30:06.759 --> 00:30:09.609
First of all it's consistent with the future land use

00:30:09.609 --> 00:30:10.960
element because it does

00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:15.230
provide that that housing to accommodate the the increase

00:30:15.230 --> 00:30:16.720
in student population

00:30:16.720 --> 00:30:20.339
as well as the population within the city of Denton and it

00:30:20.339 --> 00:30:21.359
also meets the

00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:24.940
goal to develop our infill sites to to to grow our in

00:30:24.940 --> 00:30:26.559
interior of our city as

00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:30.819
well as is our our areas outside and on the fringe of our

00:30:30.819 --> 00:30:32.759
city. It provides in

00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:36.819
the needed housing near the TWU campus. There would not be

00:30:36.819 --> 00:30:38.079
any direct vehicular

00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:41.059
access to adjacent neighborhoods so the traffic impacts

00:30:41.059 --> 00:30:42.240
within those adjacent

00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:47.279
neighborhoods would be minimal as a result of this request.

00:30:47.279 --> 00:30:48.640
It is on a DCTA

00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:54.000
connect route. Commissioner Beck. Concerned thank you chair

00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:54.799
concerning that one

00:30:54.799 --> 00:31:00.640
issue now will DCA DCTA be obligated to create some kind of

00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:01.640
offset when they

00:31:01.640 --> 00:31:04.869
stop their bus are they gonna do we know if they're gonna

00:31:04.869 --> 00:31:06.059
put a bus stop right

00:31:06.059 --> 00:31:10.759
there well if you will be the bus stop is actually it's it

00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:12.420
's on the adjacent

00:31:12.420 --> 00:31:18.559
property but so the DCTA stop is okay it's about in this

00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:20.359
location so when when

00:31:20.359 --> 00:31:24.319
the sidewalks are are constructed it will connect this and

00:31:24.319 --> 00:31:25.599
then it will allow

00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:30.349
residents to win the sidewalk so the developer be doing the

00:31:30.349 --> 00:31:30.920
sidewalks in

00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:34.809
front of their development but we won't have it do we have

00:31:34.809 --> 00:31:36.279
sidewalk down from

00:31:36.279 --> 00:31:42.400
the Primrose area do we okay okay so there will be sidewalk

00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:43.200
then all the way

00:31:43.200 --> 00:31:46.920
that was yes I'm good thank you

00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:52.279
they're proposing only two-story buildings with increased

00:31:52.279 --> 00:31:53.319
side side setbacks

00:31:53.319 --> 00:31:56.619
to ensure compatibility with the nearby residential

00:31:56.619 --> 00:31:58.220
properties and they must

00:31:58.220 --> 00:32:01.009
also meet all dent development code requirements for things

00:32:01.009 --> 00:32:01.759
like screening

00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:05.240
parking lot screening lighting street trees and tree canopy

00:32:05.240 --> 00:32:06.119
so all of those

00:32:06.119 --> 00:32:09.890
requirements would have to be met public notification was

00:32:09.890 --> 00:32:12.799
sent out and we

00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:19.359
we sent 26 200 foot notices and 73 500 foot notices we've

00:32:19.359 --> 00:32:20.240
received four in

00:32:20.240 --> 00:32:23.500
opposition within the 200 foot boundary so we've received

00:32:23.500 --> 00:32:24.680
opposition from these

00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:27.890
property owners and then one in favor the opposition we've

00:32:27.890 --> 00:32:29.720
received is 6% we

00:32:29.720 --> 00:32:34.880
did the calculation earlier today staff does propose

00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:36.839
conditions on the approval

00:32:36.839 --> 00:32:40.259
that it must that a full site plan must be submitted to the

00:32:40.259 --> 00:32:41.400
city and reviewed

00:32:41.400 --> 00:32:45.029
for compliance with dent development code requirements and

00:32:45.029 --> 00:32:46.480
we recommend the

00:32:46.480 --> 00:32:48.740
approval of the request because it's consistent with the

00:32:48.740 --> 00:32:50.359
dent development I'm

00:32:50.359 --> 00:32:52.660
sorry the dent and plan 2030 not only in terms of the

00:32:52.660 --> 00:32:53.880
future land use but also in

00:32:53.880 --> 00:32:56.460
terms of infill development and then it would provide

00:32:56.460 --> 00:32:57.839
moderate density housing

00:32:57.839 --> 00:33:02.019
designed to minimize impacts on the nearby single-family

00:33:02.019 --> 00:33:03.079
homes and I will

00:33:03.079 --> 00:33:07.710
stand for any questions Commissioner Roselle on a slide

00:33:07.710 --> 00:33:08.440
previously you said

00:33:08.440 --> 00:33:12.759
that they're proposing two-story buildings are it doesn't

00:33:12.759 --> 00:33:13.839
sound like

00:33:13.839 --> 00:33:17.309
there's a condition to be held to these elevations could

00:33:17.309 --> 00:33:18.880
they after we approve

00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:25.539
an SUP build within the MRM MRMU 12 height they're not

00:33:25.539 --> 00:33:26.680
being held to these

00:33:26.680 --> 00:33:30.460
today no it is a condition that could be placed on it but

00:33:30.460 --> 00:33:31.880
no they're not they

00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:35.759
would have to meet the NRMU 12 this is just speculation or

00:33:35.759 --> 00:33:37.079
hypothetical this

00:33:37.079 --> 00:33:41.000
two-story building option okay

00:33:41.440 --> 00:33:48.609
Commissioner Sullivan the same ones but drainage was an

00:33:48.609 --> 00:33:50.680
issue I'm assuming that

00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:54.059
this is all going to drain away from the existing

00:33:54.059 --> 00:33:56.079
homeowners is that just to make

00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:58.279
sure that they're covered they will have to meet all

00:33:58.279 --> 00:33:59.559
requirements for drainage

00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:02.289
and that that includes not impacting your adjacent

00:34:02.289 --> 00:34:04.240
properties so I'm currently

00:34:04.240 --> 00:34:07.920
they're proposing to actually provide detention in this

00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:09.199
area to to increase

00:34:09.199 --> 00:34:12.869
the separation between the multifamily use and the single-

00:34:12.869 --> 00:34:13.679
family residential

00:34:13.679 --> 00:34:19.039
development Commissioner Sanchez just out of curiosity it's

00:34:19.039 --> 00:34:19.519
a neighborhood

00:34:19.519 --> 00:34:22.280
university compatibility so you're looking that probably

00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:23.039
students will

00:34:23.039 --> 00:34:26.610
probably use that quite a bit the population will probably

00:34:26.610 --> 00:34:27.280
primarily be

00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:31.730
students is there any way the distance of discussing and I

00:34:31.730 --> 00:34:32.440
don't know if that

00:34:32.440 --> 00:34:37.550
would even be possible a bike trail or something to help

00:34:37.550 --> 00:34:39.400
students get to the

00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:43.119
university because I a lot of students when they when they

00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:44.039
're that close they're

00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:48.039
gonna ride their bikes and and mingle is a very dangerous

00:34:48.039 --> 00:34:48.960
especially if you're

00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:52.440
gonna have students riding bikes up and down mingle as

00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:54.400
narrow as it is I mean is

00:34:54.400 --> 00:34:57.030
there something that can be done for something like that I

00:34:57.030 --> 00:34:58.039
'm it's certainly

00:34:58.039 --> 00:35:01.199
certainly something we could look at and we could look at

00:35:01.199 --> 00:35:02.440
that bike look at the

00:35:02.440 --> 00:35:06.989
bike plan and see what what what future infrastructure is

00:35:06.989 --> 00:35:08.480
proposed for mingle

00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:12.119
road that was something that staff looked at because there

00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:12.920
are some some

00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:16.130
gaps in the pedestrian facilities in this area and I

00:35:16.130 --> 00:35:17.440
measured it and it is

00:35:17.440 --> 00:35:22.610
about a mile walk from this property to the university when

00:35:22.610 --> 00:35:24.159
you kind of one or

00:35:24.159 --> 00:35:29.210
weave through the street so it's about a mile walk that's

00:35:29.210 --> 00:35:32.159
why the DCT a bus stop

00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:35.880
factored so much into our analysis because we wanted to see

00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:36.920
where that went

00:35:36.920 --> 00:35:40.119
and if that would provide an alternative transportation for

00:35:40.119 --> 00:35:41.280
those for those

00:35:41.280 --> 00:35:45.210
students so so yes it right now I don't think there are any

00:35:45.210 --> 00:35:46.119
additional

00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:50.590
improvements contemplated for the the length of mingle row

00:35:50.590 --> 00:35:51.360
but I know it's

00:35:51.360 --> 00:35:55.860
something that is in our bike plan to to more fully

00:35:55.860 --> 00:35:58.480
complete our bike paths and

00:35:58.480 --> 00:36:01.650
then and then but to provide that DCTA will at least

00:36:01.650 --> 00:36:03.159
provide an alternate mode

00:36:03.159 --> 00:36:06.070
of transportation for those students commissioner Smith

00:36:06.070 --> 00:36:07.079
thank you chair

00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:10.420
was the athlete could be present tonight do you know he is

00:36:10.420 --> 00:36:12.599
here good perfect and

00:36:12.599 --> 00:36:15.769
then the can you expound upon the landscape buffer

00:36:15.769 --> 00:36:16.239
requirements you

00:36:16.239 --> 00:36:19.239
mentioned a second ago what are those you said they they

00:36:19.239 --> 00:36:20.800
have to you know they

00:36:20.800 --> 00:36:24.679
have to abide by it but what are they exactly so the

00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:29.679
landscape buffer is a

00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:37.599
is a type B buffer which is a 10-foot buffer requiring five

00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:38.800
evergreen and

00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:42.630
deciduous trees and 30 shrubs per 100 linear feet so that's

00:36:42.630 --> 00:36:43.239
a typical

00:36:43.239 --> 00:36:47.489
10 feet high 10 feet away from building 10 feet from the

00:36:47.489 --> 00:36:49.639
property line back

00:36:49.639 --> 00:36:53.269
toward the buildings the proposed buildings and it would

00:36:53.269 --> 00:36:53.800
have to be

00:36:53.800 --> 00:36:57.280
maintained by the property no height no higher requirement

00:36:57.280 --> 00:36:58.679
like that just

00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:06.840
commissioner Sullivan so the DCTA is is really servicing

00:37:06.840 --> 00:37:08.719
the say that was a

00:37:08.719 --> 00:37:13.800
senior citizen area yes to the south I guess or west or

00:37:13.800 --> 00:37:16.760
wherever no plans for

00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:21.079
DCTA to have student services I mean if that's gonna be for

00:37:21.079 --> 00:37:23.360
student housing see

00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:26.960
I mean I don't know how far a walk that is from that

00:37:26.960 --> 00:37:29.000
location down to the other

00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:31.760
location but I'm just wondering I don't know what their

00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:32.880
separation is for their

00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:35.869
stops I don't know if they have a metric that they use to

00:37:35.869 --> 00:37:36.880
separate for their

00:37:36.880 --> 00:37:40.050
stops but if you look at the route that route four takes it

00:37:40.050 --> 00:37:41.079
actually goes to the

00:37:41.079 --> 00:37:45.380
TWU area so it really it really includes that entire

00:37:45.380 --> 00:37:47.639
section of town and then and

00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:51.559
then it goes toward that deep TWU area okay thank you

00:37:51.559 --> 00:37:56.920
Commissioner Sanchez you have a lot of old oak trees there

00:37:56.920 --> 00:37:58.400
probably what I could

00:37:58.400 --> 00:38:01.300
see from the road there was I could see five or six really

00:38:01.300 --> 00:38:02.440
old but I would call

00:38:02.440 --> 00:38:06.800
old old growth and it looks like they're gonna maintain

00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:07.599
them is that is that

00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:11.579
correct what I can see there are some existing trees now if

00:38:11.579 --> 00:38:12.519
they cut any of

00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:17.610
those what I call old growth what what do they have to do

00:38:17.610 --> 00:38:18.639
to replace that or

00:38:18.639 --> 00:38:21.400
what's the mitigation for that they would have to meet all

00:38:21.400 --> 00:38:22.400
tree preservation

00:38:22.400 --> 00:38:25.869
requirements so on any given site there is a certain

00:38:25.869 --> 00:38:27.559
percentage that they have

00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:31.349
to that they have to maintain and then any anything that

00:38:31.349 --> 00:38:33.440
they cut down that is

00:38:33.440 --> 00:38:37.739
anything that they cut down between what they have to

00:38:37.739 --> 00:38:39.920
maintain and and what

00:38:39.920 --> 00:38:42.300
they're proposing they would then have to mitigate for

00:38:42.300 --> 00:38:43.239
either by planting on

00:38:43.239 --> 00:38:46.449
site or by paying I believe it's a hundred and twenty a

00:38:46.449 --> 00:38:47.519
hundred and twenty

00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:50.679
five dollars per caliber inch that they cut down so they

00:38:50.679 --> 00:38:51.519
would either have to

00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:54.320
pay into the tree fund or they would have to plant on site

00:38:54.320 --> 00:38:55.119
I believe they are

00:38:55.119 --> 00:38:57.960
citing their building to maintain some of those existing

00:38:57.960 --> 00:38:58.960
trees because they

00:38:58.960 --> 00:39:07.599
are nice beautiful trees on the site beautiful post-office

00:39:07.599 --> 00:39:07.639
yeah

00:39:08.119 --> 00:39:13.159
Commissioner Beck thank you chair some of my questions I'm

00:39:13.159 --> 00:39:14.480
gonna direct at the

00:39:14.480 --> 00:39:17.739
developer when he comes in but just maybe one you can

00:39:17.739 --> 00:39:19.320
answer this open space

00:39:19.320 --> 00:39:23.760
view up near the north side you've got open space in the

00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:25.239
two corners there is

00:39:25.239 --> 00:39:30.110
that a fixed condition or is it subject to some development

00:39:30.110 --> 00:39:31.400
in the future well

00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:35.380
forty eight so it's four acres and they are proposing NRMU

00:39:35.380 --> 00:39:37.320
12 which is a maximum

00:39:37.320 --> 00:39:40.920
density of 12 dwelling units per acre so the maximum number

00:39:40.920 --> 00:39:42.079
of apartments that

00:39:42.079 --> 00:39:44.820
they can put on the side are 48 so they've maxed out what

00:39:44.820 --> 00:39:46.320
they can this plan

00:39:46.320 --> 00:39:50.570
maxes out their density so any additional density or

00:39:50.570 --> 00:39:53.480
anything would have to pursue

00:39:53.480 --> 00:39:58.150
a rezoning okay okay we've mentioned how this is gonna

00:39:58.150 --> 00:40:00.400
appeal to the students so

00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:03.309
I'm gonna assume that these are not necessary family-

00:40:03.309 --> 00:40:04.400
friendly apartments

00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:07.980
that this are we talking about possible SROs here which I

00:40:07.980 --> 00:40:09.039
don't have a problem

00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:11.289
this is a good place for you know we always talked about

00:40:11.289 --> 00:40:12.059
where you got to put

00:40:12.059 --> 00:40:14.960
those there but this is a good place for it but just just

00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:16.739
out of curiosity and I

00:40:16.739 --> 00:40:19.679
could probably ask the developer this later would it be

00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:20.719
better for okay one

00:40:20.719 --> 00:40:24.300
last thing again on your site plan here where it talks

00:40:24.300 --> 00:40:25.760
about proposed attention

00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:29.789
on the backside of the East units so that's going to gather

00:40:29.789 --> 00:40:30.719
water pretty much

00:40:30.719 --> 00:40:39.760
for the most of the area or just on that side drainage will

00:40:40.360 --> 00:40:43.090
drainage from that detention pond I'm assuming will go

00:40:43.090 --> 00:40:44.679
towards Mingo they'll

00:40:44.679 --> 00:40:47.550
have to make sure that they drain it in accordance with our

00:40:47.550 --> 00:40:48.719
our requirements and

00:40:48.719 --> 00:40:51.929
that will this is conceptual at this point they'll they'll

00:40:51.929 --> 00:40:52.800
have to ensure

00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:55.400
that all those calculations and all their drainage is not

00:40:55.400 --> 00:40:56.599
negatively impacting

00:40:56.599 --> 00:41:04.199
those adjacent property okay good just some comments in

00:41:04.199 --> 00:41:05.679
relation to what you

00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:07.960
know some of the other commissioners stated to on the road

00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:08.719
that is an issue

00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:12.519
and just for the record wanted to throw out some

00:41:12.519 --> 00:41:14.800
suggestions that part of Mingo

00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:21.570
there is on a curvature or if you're coming from northeast

00:41:21.570 --> 00:41:23.639
heading southwest

00:41:23.639 --> 00:41:27.829
yeah you're not going to see as much ahead of you at this

00:41:27.829 --> 00:41:28.639
point with those

00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:31.880
apartments or the means of ingress and as you would if you

00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:32.679
were coming from

00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:39.719
the square so we need to do some cautionary things there

00:41:39.719 --> 00:41:41.480
and I'm thinking

00:41:41.480 --> 00:41:45.210
maybe without a lot of expense a flashing yellow light and

00:41:45.210 --> 00:41:47.039
some warning signs that

00:41:47.039 --> 00:41:50.400
you're coming up on an intersection that could be a

00:41:50.400 --> 00:41:52.039
possible problem which they

00:41:52.039 --> 00:41:57.309
definitely go the other thing would be when coming out of

00:41:57.309 --> 00:41:58.719
the apartments the

00:41:58.719 --> 00:42:01.880
problem if somebody's barreling down Mingo 50 miles an hour

00:42:01.880 --> 00:42:02.320
heading towards

00:42:02.320 --> 00:42:06.280
the square and then someone just casually pulls out of the

00:42:06.280 --> 00:42:07.000
apartments it seems

00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:09.840
like and I don't know if this had fallen a developer of the

00:42:09.840 --> 00:42:11.079
city when they when

00:42:11.079 --> 00:42:14.659
they do their streets but if we could have a merging line

00:42:14.659 --> 00:42:15.760
as they pull out

00:42:15.760 --> 00:42:21.130
where it wouldn't be a part of Mingo until about maybe 100

00:42:21.130 --> 00:42:22.119
200 feet up the

00:42:22.119 --> 00:42:26.619
road just again just a thought to throw out there for the

00:42:26.619 --> 00:42:27.400
city and in the

00:42:27.400 --> 00:42:29.480
developer because this is going to be an issue that if we

00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:30.000
're dealing with

00:42:30.000 --> 00:42:34.440
students especially and I've seen people come down Mingo

00:42:34.440 --> 00:42:35.679
you know help scalpers

00:42:35.679 --> 00:42:40.389
so just something to throw out there for consideration

00:42:40.389 --> 00:42:41.280
thank you

00:42:41.480 --> 00:42:45.400
Commissioner Ellis thank you chair okay on that same note

00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:46.760
you talk about the

00:42:46.760 --> 00:42:49.929
developers required to do street improvement so you've

00:42:49.929 --> 00:42:51.000
mentioned sidewalks

00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:54.320
is there anything else required so I know Commissioner

00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:55.480
Smith mentioned the

00:42:55.480 --> 00:42:58.739
deaccelerator deacceleration lane obviously that's not a

00:42:58.739 --> 00:43:00.280
required thing

00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:04.079
it could be a plating it could be a plating it hasn't

00:43:04.079 --> 00:43:05.159
gotten that far in

00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:08.449
the in the assessment of the infrastructure needs of the

00:43:08.449 --> 00:43:08.880
area in

00:43:08.880 --> 00:43:13.579
relationship to the use so as it moves forward our traffic

00:43:13.579 --> 00:43:14.400
engineers our

00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:20.030
engineering department will review this and and and look at

00:43:20.030 --> 00:43:21.280
the information that

00:43:21.280 --> 00:43:23.710
the applicant provides and determine what what

00:43:23.710 --> 00:43:25.239
infrastructure requirements

00:43:25.239 --> 00:43:28.659
would be required on Mingo Road if additional improvements

00:43:28.659 --> 00:43:29.199
would be

00:43:29.199 --> 00:43:33.079
required something like turn lanes or or right turn lanes

00:43:33.079 --> 00:43:33.719
so okay so that's an

00:43:33.719 --> 00:43:37.440
engineering discussion and decision I'm sorry that's an

00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:38.400
engineering discussion

00:43:38.400 --> 00:43:46.119
and decision typically there yes okay thanks any other

00:43:46.119 --> 00:43:49.760

and call on Haley for presentation

00:48:32.480 --> 00:48:32.610
good evening this is a site plan for two multi-tenant

00:48:32.610 --> 00:48:36.599
retail buildings and the

00:48:36.599 --> 00:48:40.409
razor ranch development so the request is for approval of a

00:48:40.409 --> 00:48:41.559
site plan for two

00:48:41.559 --> 00:48:44.179
multi-tenant buildings that would be constructed and within

00:48:44.179 --> 00:48:44.920
the South RR to

00:48:44.920 --> 00:48:49.760
district on lot 6r and 7r the properties outlined on the

00:48:49.760 --> 00:48:50.960
map in yellow it's

00:48:50.960 --> 00:48:54.429
approximately three acres comprised of two lots located at

00:48:54.429 --> 00:48:55.719
the southwest corner

00:48:55.719 --> 00:49:00.210
of a University Drive and Heritage Trail intersection as I

00:49:00.210 --> 00:49:01.800
mentioned before it is

00:49:01.800 --> 00:49:06.849
within the South RR to district of the razor ranch overlay

00:49:06.849 --> 00:49:08.440
site plans for

00:49:08.440 --> 00:49:10.380
properties within this district are subject to the

00:49:10.380 --> 00:49:11.480
architecture and landscape

00:49:11.480 --> 00:49:14.269
standards that are outlined in exhibit C 1 and D 1 of the

00:49:14.269 --> 00:49:16.280
overlay district each

00:49:16.280 --> 00:49:19.130
site plan is required to include the following items the

00:49:19.130 --> 00:49:19.880
site plan the

00:49:19.880 --> 00:49:24.030
landscape plan and the building elevations the razor ranch

00:49:24.030 --> 00:49:24.719
overlay

00:49:24.719 --> 00:49:27.889
outlines the criteria for approval so a P&Z the P&Z will

00:49:27.889 --> 00:49:29.119
approve the site plan

00:49:29.119 --> 00:49:32.019
if it substantially complies with the concept and schematic

00:49:32.019 --> 00:49:32.719
plan that was

00:49:32.719 --> 00:49:35.380
approved by council for the overlay if it provides for a

00:49:35.380 --> 00:49:36.719
compatible arrangement

00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:38.860
of buildings and uses it wouldn't adversely affect any

00:49:38.860 --> 00:49:39.719
properties outside

00:49:39.719 --> 00:49:42.889
the overlay if it provides for safe and adequate

00:49:42.889 --> 00:49:44.559
circulation of vehicular traffic

00:49:44.559 --> 00:49:47.550
and if it complies with all the standards outlined in the

00:49:47.550 --> 00:49:49.199
overlay to look

00:49:49.199 --> 00:49:51.570
at this in a little more detail you see here it is two

00:49:51.570 --> 00:49:52.619
separate lots as I

00:49:52.619 --> 00:49:57.699
indicated lot 6r is building with total about 8800 square

00:49:57.699 --> 00:49:59.079
feet and then lot 7r

00:49:59.079 --> 00:50:02.880
about 8700 square feet so just over 17,000 square feet

00:50:02.880 --> 00:50:04.519
total both buildings

00:50:04.519 --> 00:50:09.079
would be for mixed retail and commercial uses approximately

00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:10.000
three tenants per

00:50:10.000 --> 00:50:14.190
building a total of 108 parking spaces is required for

00:50:14.190 --> 00:50:15.320
these because there's

00:50:15.320 --> 00:50:18.530
no parking maximum within razor ranch they're proposing 132

00:50:18.530 --> 00:50:20.480
spaces and access

00:50:20.480 --> 00:50:23.210
to the site would come from an internal north-south and an

00:50:23.210 --> 00:50:24.239
internal east-west

00:50:24.239 --> 00:50:27.460

00:50:27.460 --> 00:50:30.039
for these buildings

00:50:30.039 --> 00:50:34.750
looking at the landscape plan a total of 29% landscaping 37

00:50:34.750 --> 00:50:35.760
% tree canopy on the

00:50:35.760 --> 00:50:39.920
site the area in light green is existing landscaping that's

00:50:39.920 --> 00:50:40.800
already installed

00:50:40.800 --> 00:50:43.550
along University and Heritage Trail that will all be

00:50:43.550 --> 00:50:45.000
maintained to provide the

00:50:45.000 --> 00:50:47.739
parking lot screening and consistency of street trees and

00:50:47.739 --> 00:50:48.920
site design across the

00:50:48.920 --> 00:50:52.340
frontage of the property the darker green color is all the

00:50:52.340 --> 00:50:53.199
new landscaping

00:50:53.199 --> 00:50:55.449
that would be provided internal to the parking lot and

00:50:55.449 --> 00:50:57.280
around the buildings the

00:50:57.280 --> 00:51:00.369
area in blue is the plaza area so just over 2,000 square

00:51:00.369 --> 00:51:01.480
feet of common area

00:51:01.480 --> 00:51:05.309
for pedestrians that will include some trees and some

00:51:05.309 --> 00:51:07.659
shaded seating look at the

00:51:07.659 --> 00:51:12.639
building elevations for lot 6r mixture of materials stone

00:51:12.639 --> 00:51:13.960
if is with neutral

00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:17.829
color palette as called for by the overlay lot 7r very

00:51:17.829 --> 00:51:19.300
similar in style to

00:51:19.300 --> 00:51:24.539
6r staff is recommending approval of the site plan we found

00:51:24.539 --> 00:51:25.239
it to be compliant

00:51:25.239 --> 00:51:28.409
with all the regulations within the razor-grab wrench

00:51:28.409 --> 00:51:28.719
overlay district and

00:51:28.719 --> 00:51:32.199
the criteria for approval and I can stand for any questions

00:51:32.199 --> 00:51:33.360
commissioner back

00:51:33.360 --> 00:51:37.550
thank you chair Haley on the parking issue they it's a

00:51:37.550 --> 00:51:37.920
hundred and eight

00:51:37.920 --> 00:51:41.519
minimum they requested 24 more which we're always concerned

00:51:41.519 --> 00:51:42.400
about all the

00:51:42.400 --> 00:51:45.119
parking that's created and then never used can you go back

00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:45.880
to the site plan

00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:49.909
and were these 24 extra parking spaces going in a specific

00:51:49.909 --> 00:51:50.599
area are they

00:51:50.599 --> 00:51:53.690
evenly dispersed throughout no that would just be dispersed

00:51:53.690 --> 00:51:54.639
across both lots

00:51:54.639 --> 00:51:59.480
and there is a landscaping requirement for internal parking

00:51:59.480 --> 00:52:00.239
lot islands the

00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:03.409
equivalent of every 15 spaces so adequate landscaping to

00:52:03.409 --> 00:52:04.920
shade and help

00:52:04.920 --> 00:52:12.159
control stormwater in the parking lot okay thank you you

you can go if you can you go more than 37% or and what's a

00:52:23.030 --> 00:52:24.159

within the overlay each each parcels required to have that

00:52:35.260 --> 00:52:36.280
20% so overall

00:52:36.280 --> 00:52:40.139
this site is providing a 17% extra tree canopy above what

00:52:40.139 --> 00:52:41.519

01:01:26.340 --> 01:01:28.280
probably see the TWU golf

01:01:28.280 --> 01:01:33.760
courses in this location here so on the left here we've got

01:01:33.760 --> 01:01:34.920
what the existing

01:01:34.920 --> 01:01:38.420
zoning is at the subject property does have an NR 3 zoning

01:01:38.420 --> 01:01:39.440
district they are

01:01:39.440 --> 01:01:44.250
proposing to rezone to NRM U 12 which would extend that

01:01:44.250 --> 01:01:46.119
existing NRM U 12 to

01:01:46.119 --> 01:01:48.840
the west of this that's located west of the subject

01:01:48.840 --> 01:01:51.519
property the criteria for

01:01:51.519 --> 01:01:54.500
approval for rezoning or in is in subchapter 3 of the Dent

01:01:54.500 --> 01:01:55.239
on Development

01:01:55.239 --> 01:01:58.750
Code first is the use does the proposed zoning district

01:01:58.750 --> 01:01:59.679
conform to the future

01:01:59.679 --> 01:02:03.170
land use element of the Denton plan 2030 and then second

01:02:03.170 --> 01:02:04.420
does it facilitate the

01:02:04.420 --> 01:02:08.610
adequate provision of public infrastructure so we'll take

01:02:08.610 --> 01:02:09.340
the future

01:02:09.340 --> 01:02:13.039
land use element first per the Denton plan 2030 the future

01:02:13.039 --> 01:02:14.320
land use designation

01:02:14.320 --> 01:02:17.480
of the property is neighborhood university compatibility

01:02:17.480 --> 01:02:18.360
the intent of

01:02:18.360 --> 01:02:22.590
this area is to provide compatible housing and service and

01:02:22.590 --> 01:02:23.519
services that

01:02:23.519 --> 01:02:26.690
serve both the both of our universities as well as the

01:02:26.690 --> 01:02:27.679
surrounding neighborhood

01:02:27.679 --> 01:02:31.360
so if you look at the enrollment the current enrollment

01:02:31.360 --> 01:02:32.760
plus the enrollment

01:02:32.760 --> 01:02:36.119
projections of our of our universities within the city of

01:02:36.119 --> 01:02:38.079
Denton there is how

01:02:38.079 --> 01:02:41.309
their housing needs to accommodate that and and so this

01:02:41.309 --> 01:02:42.780
neighborhood university

01:02:42.780 --> 01:02:47.579
compatibility area is intended to accommodate that and try

01:02:47.579 --> 01:02:48.480
to provide

01:02:48.480 --> 01:02:52.159
compatible forms and uses not only to provide for that

01:02:52.159 --> 01:02:53.880
additional housing but

01:02:53.880 --> 01:02:56.639
also so that integrates well within those surrounding

01:02:56.639 --> 01:02:58.320
neighborhoods staff

01:02:58.320 --> 01:03:01.150
looked at the neighborhood university compatibility area

01:03:01.150 --> 01:03:02.159
and determined that

01:03:02.159 --> 01:03:05.920
NRMU 12 is appropriate for this future land use designation

01:03:05.920 --> 01:03:06.800
because it does

01:03:06.800 --> 01:03:09.820
both of those both of the housing and then also provides

01:03:09.820 --> 01:03:10.679
some small-scale

01:03:10.679 --> 01:03:16.170
commercial uses which could provide services for those

01:03:16.170 --> 01:03:19.480
populations the code

01:03:19.480 --> 01:03:22.949
also talks about the adequate provision of public

01:03:22.949 --> 01:03:24.719
facilities for a rezoning so

01:03:24.719 --> 01:03:28.320
when we we look at the area there is water in that sewer

01:03:28.320 --> 01:03:29.880
along Mingo Road

01:03:29.880 --> 01:03:33.630
however extensions of both of those may be required at plat

01:03:33.630 --> 01:03:34.920
ting and that would

01:03:34.920 --> 01:03:37.559
be something that would be determined during that that

01:03:37.559 --> 01:03:39.599
stage of development it

01:03:39.599 --> 01:03:43.599
is located on Mingo Road which is a secondary arterial

01:03:43.599 --> 01:03:44.719
under current

01:03:44.719 --> 01:03:49.039
conditions Mingo Road is a two-lane undivided road

01:03:49.039 --> 01:03:50.880
secondary arterials per

01:03:50.880 --> 01:03:53.519
the Denton Development Code are typically required to be

01:03:53.519 --> 01:03:54.000
four lane

01:03:54.000 --> 01:03:58.659
divided roads with five foot sidewalks on either side so it

01:03:58.659 --> 01:04:00.480
's not currently built

01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:06.320
to the ultimate secondary arterial standard it is my

01:04:06.320 --> 01:04:06.840
understanding from

01:04:06.840 --> 01:04:10.730
engineering currently there aren't any projects that are or

01:04:10.730 --> 01:04:11.559
any capital

01:04:11.559 --> 01:04:15.250
improvement projects that are intended to widen Mingo at

01:04:15.250 --> 01:04:17.320
this time however with

01:04:17.320 --> 01:04:20.610
the development they would be required to dedicate right-of

01:04:20.610 --> 01:04:21.440
-way and do any

01:04:21.440 --> 01:04:25.690
public infrastructure improvements associated with the

01:04:25.690 --> 01:04:27.800
development we also

01:04:27.800 --> 01:04:30.130
looked at the compatibility of the request with the

01:04:30.130 --> 01:04:31.099
surrounding zoning

01:04:31.099 --> 01:04:34.860
districts so when we look at at the existing development

01:04:34.860 --> 01:04:36.119
pattern as well as

01:04:36.119 --> 01:04:39.900
the location of the site on that primary arterial staff is

01:04:39.900 --> 01:04:41.159
determined it's it's

01:04:41.159 --> 01:04:44.400
really unlikely to develop with single-family residential

01:04:44.400 --> 01:04:45.000
uses you know

01:04:45.000 --> 01:04:50.989
access is only taken from that Mingo Road roadway as well

01:04:50.989 --> 01:04:52.360
as those those

01:04:52.360 --> 01:04:57.719
single-family neighborhoods plus the the the age-limited

01:04:57.719 --> 01:04:59.119
multifamily development

01:04:59.119 --> 01:05:06.440
to the West kind of isolate this this this piece of

01:05:06.440 --> 01:05:07.360
property so that there's

01:05:07.360 --> 01:05:10.329
not vehicular access to those adjacent neighborhoods it's

01:05:10.329 --> 01:05:12.000
built out around them

01:05:12.000 --> 01:05:16.000
neighborhood or NRM U12 is intended for these types of

01:05:16.000 --> 01:05:17.800
areas it's intended to be

01:05:17.800 --> 01:05:21.980
near to residential areas and to be compatible compatible

01:05:21.980 --> 01:05:22.800
with residential

01:05:22.800 --> 01:05:26.269
neighborhoods it provides some some different housing types

01:05:26.269 --> 01:05:27.280
as well as some

01:05:27.280 --> 01:05:30.130
commercial services some small-scale commercial development

01:05:30.130 --> 01:05:30.840
so it's intended

01:05:30.840 --> 01:05:35.440
to be near residential areas that will be required the way

01:05:35.440 --> 01:05:36.239
that the site is

01:05:36.239 --> 01:05:40.909
configured it backs up to adjacent properties so the buff

01:05:40.909 --> 01:05:41.880
ers will be

01:05:41.880 --> 01:05:44.360
required I believe we talked in the work session that would

01:05:44.360 --> 01:05:45.159
be a 10-foot

01:05:45.159 --> 01:05:48.530
landscape buffer require a certain number of trees and shr

01:05:48.530 --> 01:05:49.639
ubs to be planted

01:05:49.639 --> 01:05:53.210
between any use on this site and those single-family

01:05:53.210 --> 01:05:55.519
residential neighborhoods

01:05:55.519 --> 01:05:59.659
NRM U12 is a logical extension of that existing

01:05:59.659 --> 01:06:01.000
neighborhood residential

01:06:01.000 --> 01:06:05.159
neighborhood residential mixed-use 12 adjacent to the

01:06:05.159 --> 01:06:06.800
subject property it's

01:06:06.800 --> 01:06:10.670
also kind of a lot an appropriate transition from this dr2

01:06:10.670 --> 01:06:11.639
and DCG which

01:06:11.639 --> 01:06:15.960
is closer to TWU as you're transitioning toward that single

01:06:15.960 --> 01:06:16.800
-family residential

01:06:16.800 --> 01:06:19.500
neighborhood so it's a logical transition as well the

01:06:19.500 --> 01:06:20.800
subject property

01:06:20.800 --> 01:06:24.739
is also an infill development the the debt and plan 2030

01:06:24.739 --> 01:06:25.760
calls for infill

01:06:25.760 --> 01:06:30.829
development it calls for these types of parcels that are

01:06:30.829 --> 01:06:32.559
within our city to

01:06:32.559 --> 01:06:36.429
provide some different housing types and different services

01:06:36.429 --> 01:06:37.320
so that we can

01:06:37.320 --> 01:06:43.019
maintain compact growth so based upon the criteria for

01:06:43.019 --> 01:06:44.000
approval staff

01:06:44.000 --> 01:06:47.480
recommends approval of this request because it is

01:06:47.480 --> 01:06:48.800
consistent with the with

01:06:48.800 --> 01:06:51.170
the future land use element as well as the goals and

01:06:51.170 --> 01:06:52.360
objectives of the dent and

01:06:52.360 --> 01:06:57.030
plan 2030 and it also encourages infill development in a

01:06:57.030 --> 01:06:58.280
way that is compatible

01:06:58.280 --> 01:07:01.590
with the surrounding zoning and development pattern and

01:07:01.590 --> 01:07:02.760
that concludes

01:07:02.760 --> 01:07:05.969
the zoning portion of the presentation if anybody has any

01:07:05.969 --> 01:07:06.960
questions otherwise

01:07:06.960 --> 01:07:10.130
I'll just move forward with the specific use permit

01:07:10.130 --> 01:07:12.099
commissioner back thank you

01:07:12.099 --> 01:07:16.030
chair Julie we all I think most of commissioners mentioned

01:07:16.030 --> 01:07:16.519
in the work

01:07:16.519 --> 01:07:20.699
session we're concerned about mingo Road in the traffic

01:07:20.699 --> 01:07:22.239
issue that may arise and

01:07:22.239 --> 01:07:30.179
the fact that it is considered a second arterial could you

01:07:30.179 --> 01:07:31.719
share with us for the

01:07:31.719 --> 01:07:36.630
sake of the audience why this development was considered

01:07:36.630 --> 01:07:37.159
okay to go

01:07:37.159 --> 01:07:43.480
ahead with without the widening of mingo at this time well

01:07:43.480 --> 01:07:44.960
we're gonna be adding

01:07:44.960 --> 01:07:48.960
some traffic to it albeit not a lot but still within the

01:07:48.960 --> 01:07:50.639
city of Denton how our

01:07:50.639 --> 01:07:56.349
roads network typically develops is that as as development

01:07:56.349 --> 01:07:58.079
on a roadway comes

01:07:58.079 --> 01:08:03.030
forward right of way right of way dedication is is is

01:08:03.030 --> 01:08:04.079
determined at

01:08:04.079 --> 01:08:07.500
platting and then any additional roadway perimeter

01:08:07.500 --> 01:08:09.760
improvements are determined at

01:08:09.760 --> 01:08:12.599
platting mingo is kind of an interesting case because it's

01:08:12.599 --> 01:08:14.920
an existing road so as

01:08:14.920 --> 01:08:19.319
the city develops as there are future improvements to our

01:08:19.319 --> 01:08:21.039
roadway network that

01:08:21.039 --> 01:08:24.680
will be something that would be considered but right now

01:08:24.680 --> 01:08:25.600
there aren't

01:08:25.600 --> 01:08:29.170
any planned improvements for mingo Road now this

01:08:29.170 --> 01:08:31.479
development would be required

01:08:31.479 --> 01:08:35.510
to dedicate right of way for future any future widening

01:08:35.510 --> 01:08:37.279
projects on mingo Road

01:08:37.279 --> 01:08:42.449
they would also be required to to construct any sidewalks

01:08:42.449 --> 01:08:44.159
so as as the as

01:08:44.159 --> 01:08:48.350
the network as the roadway continues to to develop they

01:08:48.350 --> 01:08:50.119
would that would be that

01:08:50.119 --> 01:08:53.500
piece of pedestrian facilities that they would that they

01:08:53.500 --> 01:08:54.720
would put in so it's

01:08:54.720 --> 01:08:58.000
just one more piece that will continue creating those

01:08:58.000 --> 01:09:00.439
connections so there's

01:09:00.439 --> 01:09:03.090
nothing planned right now but this but this one would be

01:09:03.090 --> 01:09:04.199
required to have some

01:09:04.199 --> 01:09:07.550
improvements to the road okay but we're likely not to see

01:09:07.550 --> 01:09:09.439
any widening of mingo

01:09:09.439 --> 01:09:12.039
is a second arterial meeting the criteria of second arter

01:09:12.039 --> 01:09:12.760
ial and we see a

01:09:12.760 --> 01:09:15.930
lot more development along mingo unless there is some other

01:09:15.930 --> 01:09:17.000
mechanism that that

01:09:17.000 --> 01:09:21.130
creates that that such as like a capital improvement

01:09:21.130 --> 01:09:23.560
project okay okay all right

01:09:23.560 --> 01:09:26.279
thank you sure

01:09:26.560 --> 01:09:29.729
Commissioner Smith thank you chair during discussion of

01:09:29.729 --> 01:09:30.319
approval for the

01:09:30.319 --> 01:09:33.060
zoning can we can we limit the height that the height in

01:09:33.060 --> 01:09:34.760
our m12 is 12 at 65

01:09:34.760 --> 01:09:38.229
feet are we able to to approve landing that height at all

01:09:38.229 --> 01:09:39.560
the the height limit

01:09:39.560 --> 01:09:43.699
of NRM u12 is 40 feet and yes you could put a condition on

01:09:43.699 --> 01:09:45.800
either the SUP or the

01:09:45.800 --> 01:09:51.239
zoning case that could limit the height so yes sir

01:09:54.640 --> 01:09:58.289
when I already be 12 he's that's 40 feet in it 65 is what I

01:09:58.289 --> 01:09:59.119
'll say maximum

01:09:59.119 --> 01:10:04.880
building I had 65 feet no you're fine I just wanted to make

01:10:04.880 --> 01:10:05.560
sure I didn't say

01:10:05.560 --> 01:10:20.010
wrong no NRM u12 sport 40 feet it's 40 but you could you

01:10:20.010 --> 01:10:20.800
could restrict that

01:10:20.800 --> 01:10:25.329
is you could restrict that or does it is it says says right

01:10:25.329 --> 01:10:26.520
here in our in our

01:10:26.520 --> 01:10:29.039
backup it says maximum building height 65 feet then I

01:10:29.039 --> 01:10:30.600
apologize I was incorrect

01:10:30.600 --> 01:10:34.989
in the backup yes it is 40 feet further I apologize never

01:10:34.989 --> 01:10:36.399
mind yes thank you thank

01:10:36.399 --> 01:10:41.960
you for pointing that out all right so any other questions

01:10:41.960 --> 01:10:43.039
no questions on this

01:10:43.039 --> 01:10:47.229
part all right presentation all right so now we'll talk

01:10:47.229 --> 01:10:48.119
about the specific use

01:10:48.119 --> 01:10:51.539
permit and what they're proposing on the site so they are

01:10:51.539 --> 01:10:52.760
proposing a specific

01:10:52.760 --> 01:10:57.380
use permit for multifamily developments they are their

01:10:57.380 --> 01:11:00.079
proposal is 48 two-bedroom

01:11:00.079 --> 01:11:04.779
units with some outdoor recreation they are proposing two-

01:11:04.779 --> 01:11:06.159
story buildings

01:11:06.159 --> 01:11:09.329
buildings would be set back from the single-family

01:11:09.329 --> 01:11:10.880
residential per their site

01:11:10.880 --> 01:11:14.359
plan so if we could just take a look at their site plan

01:11:14.359 --> 01:11:15.439
they are proposing some

01:11:15.439 --> 01:11:19.020
detention areas on the east as well as the northern side so

01:11:19.020 --> 01:11:20.119
they're pulling

01:11:20.119 --> 01:11:22.489
those buildings back away from the single-family

01:11:22.489 --> 01:11:24.359
residential areas they're

01:11:24.359 --> 01:11:27.560
also they would be required to meet the landscape buffers

01:11:27.560 --> 01:11:28.680
in the code and that

01:11:28.680 --> 01:11:32.260
is depicted on this on this site plan as well as street

01:11:32.260 --> 01:11:33.479
trees along mingo road

01:11:33.479 --> 01:11:37.260
they're also proposing some masonry and stone accents and

01:11:37.260 --> 01:11:38.560
you can see here the

01:11:38.560 --> 01:11:41.720
conceptual elevations this is what would be presenting

01:11:41.720 --> 01:11:43.359
toward mingo road it would

01:11:43.359 --> 01:11:47.890
also have street trees along the frontage of it and then

01:11:47.890 --> 01:11:48.680
here is the rear

01:11:48.680 --> 01:11:54.380
elevation so the criteria for approval for specific use

01:11:54.380 --> 01:11:55.159
permits are in sub

01:11:55.159 --> 01:11:57.250
chapter 6 of the debt and development code and it is

01:11:57.250 --> 01:11:57.920
essentially a

01:11:57.920 --> 01:12:01.390
compatibility analysis between the surrounding property and

01:12:01.390 --> 01:12:01.880
then the

01:12:01.880 --> 01:12:06.229
proposed use what we look at is typically what would the

01:12:06.229 --> 01:12:07.319
specific use

01:12:07.319 --> 01:12:10.029
impede the normal or orderly development of the surrounding

01:12:10.029 --> 01:12:11.760
vacant property with

01:12:11.760 --> 01:12:15.380
the parking and generation of traffic and access how would

01:12:15.380 --> 01:12:16.640
that work within

01:12:16.640 --> 01:12:20.319
that the greater context of the site and the in the area

01:12:20.319 --> 01:12:21.960
what what types of

01:12:21.960 --> 01:12:25.170
nuisances with the proposed use create and what what

01:12:25.170 --> 01:12:26.760
mechanisms could prevent

01:12:26.760 --> 01:12:30.479
that nuisances is there adequate landscaping and screening

01:12:30.479 --> 01:12:30.960
and is the

01:12:30.960 --> 01:12:34.609
architecture compatible with the surrounding property when

01:12:34.609 --> 01:12:35.640
we looked at

01:12:35.640 --> 01:12:39.550
their proposal we determined it is compatible with this

01:12:39.550 --> 01:12:41.239
with the adjacent

01:12:41.239 --> 01:12:44.470
properties for the following reasons first it's consistent

01:12:44.470 --> 01:12:45.399
with the dent plan

01:12:45.399 --> 01:12:49.199
2030 future land use element and also the goal of the

01:12:49.199 --> 01:12:50.659
future of the didn't plan

01:12:50.659 --> 01:12:55.800
2030 to develop infill sites so the didn't plan 2030 once

01:12:55.800 --> 01:12:56.439
that kind of

01:12:56.439 --> 01:12:59.619
compact growth and these types of infill sites where you

01:12:59.619 --> 01:13:00.520
could get some

01:13:00.520 --> 01:13:03.939
different housing types meet that requirement it would also

01:13:03.939 --> 01:13:04.439
provide

01:13:04.439 --> 01:13:09.359
needed housing near a TWU campus and that that meets that

01:13:09.359 --> 01:13:10.800
future land use

01:13:10.800 --> 01:13:16.640
designation as well the way the site is is is set out

01:13:16.640 --> 01:13:17.840
within the surrounding

01:13:17.840 --> 01:13:21.680
development there's no direct vehicular access to adjacent

01:13:21.680 --> 01:13:22.800
neighborhoods so it

01:13:22.800 --> 01:13:26.520
would limit any traffic impacts within those those adjacent

01:13:26.520 --> 01:13:27.800
neighborhoods it

01:13:27.800 --> 01:13:32.069
is on a DCTA connect route so it would provide alternate

01:13:32.069 --> 01:13:33.079
roads modes of

01:13:33.079 --> 01:13:39.850
transportation for the the residents there are proposed two

01:13:39.850 --> 01:13:40.760
-story buildings

01:13:40.760 --> 01:13:43.170
with increased side setbacks and that increases the

01:13:43.170 --> 01:13:44.319
compatibility with the

01:13:44.319 --> 01:13:47.510
nearby residential development and additionally the use

01:13:47.510 --> 01:13:48.520
must meet all dent

01:13:48.520 --> 01:13:50.899
and development code requirements for screening parking

01:13:50.899 --> 01:13:51.880
lighting street trees

01:13:51.880 --> 01:13:56.689
and tree canopy public notification was sent out we've

01:13:56.689 --> 01:13:59.399
received four four letters

01:13:59.399 --> 01:14:02.189
in opposition within the 200 foot boundary and you can see

01:14:02.189 --> 01:14:02.640
they're

01:14:02.640 --> 01:14:07.390
depicted here and read and that is 6% we've received one in

01:14:07.390 --> 01:14:08.640
favor and that is

01:14:08.640 --> 01:14:14.840
this property right here staff proposes the condition on

01:14:14.840 --> 01:14:15.840
the specific use

01:14:15.840 --> 01:14:19.310
permit that it is required to ensure that they must submit

01:14:19.310 --> 01:14:20.279
a full site plan

01:14:20.279 --> 01:14:22.770
to ensure that it does comply with all dent and development

01:14:22.770 --> 01:14:23.560
code requirements

01:14:23.560 --> 01:14:27.060
for those those items such as site design landscaping

01:14:27.060 --> 01:14:28.279
parking and building

01:14:28.279 --> 01:14:33.979
design so based upon the criteria for approval and the

01:14:33.979 --> 01:14:35.039
proposed condition

01:14:35.039 --> 01:14:37.710
staff recommends approval of the request because it is

01:14:37.710 --> 01:14:38.920
consistent with the dent

01:14:38.920 --> 01:14:42.279
plan 2030 and it also provides moderate density housing

01:14:42.279 --> 01:14:43.479
designed to minimize

01:14:43.479 --> 01:14:46.489
impacts to nearby single-family homes to create a

01:14:46.489 --> 01:14:47.880
compatible form within an

01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:52.569
infill area and I will stand for any questions got several

01:14:52.569 --> 01:14:53.000
questions

01:14:53.000 --> 01:14:56.869
Commissioner Smith make sure deacceleration lanes along M

01:14:56.869 --> 01:14:58.279
ingo the

01:14:58.279 --> 01:15:02.180
owners of course we put on to the engineer the applicant to

01:15:02.180 --> 01:15:03.000
construct

01:15:03.000 --> 01:15:05.579
those is there anything that would treat as a trip

01:15:05.579 --> 01:15:07.079
generation that would trigger

01:15:07.079 --> 01:15:11.100
the city making that a requirement correct yes it would be

01:15:11.100 --> 01:15:12.520
based upon their

01:15:12.520 --> 01:15:18.310
based upon the road the the in their proposal the types of

01:15:18.310 --> 01:15:20.119
trips that their

01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:23.699
proposal would generate that may require additional turn

01:15:23.699 --> 01:15:25.000
lanes either left turn

01:15:25.000 --> 01:15:28.170
lanes right turn lanes some sort of system improvements

01:15:28.170 --> 01:15:29.319
within that area so

01:15:29.319 --> 01:15:31.970
that is something that they'll be determined at platting

01:15:31.970 --> 01:15:32.640
once a little

01:15:32.640 --> 01:15:37.159
more detailed information has been provided to the city

01:15:37.159 --> 01:15:38.800
thank you sure

01:15:38.800 --> 01:15:42.300
Commissioner Sullivan thank you Judy what is the the

01:15:42.300 --> 01:15:43.520
screening that's going to be

01:15:43.520 --> 01:15:49.439
going specifically on the north and east boundaries what is

01:15:49.439 --> 01:15:50.640
the screening

01:15:50.640 --> 01:15:53.800
requirements yes they would be required to put in that 10-

01:15:53.800 --> 01:15:55.399
foot landscape buffer

01:15:55.399 --> 01:15:58.880
which includes

01:16:05.560 --> 01:16:09.989
five evergreen and deciduous trees and 30 shrubs per 100

01:16:09.989 --> 01:16:11.479
linear feet okay so

01:16:11.479 --> 01:16:14.369
there's no wall or anything just landscaping the didn't

01:16:14.369 --> 01:16:15.039
develop a code

01:16:15.039 --> 01:16:18.800
doesn't require a wall okay and it looks like on the map

01:16:18.800 --> 01:16:22.600
that from the one set of

01:16:22.600 --> 01:16:27.119
apartments proposed apartments on the east side that it's

01:16:27.119 --> 01:16:29.119
70 feet from the

01:16:29.119 --> 01:16:36.920
north boundary and then 40 35 feet from the east boundary

01:16:36.920 --> 01:16:38.319
is that am I reading

01:16:38.319 --> 01:16:41.489
that right yes it's set back fairly far now this is

01:16:41.489 --> 01:16:42.680
conceptual at this exact

01:16:42.680 --> 01:16:46.819
understand so but I think from the letters that that I saw

01:16:46.819 --> 01:16:47.520
here the

01:16:47.520 --> 01:16:52.359
concern was rain one ought runoff you know water runoff

01:16:52.359 --> 01:16:53.319
that's not going into

01:16:53.319 --> 01:16:58.800
their property traffic and which I'm assuming is more on m

01:16:58.800 --> 01:17:01.680
ingo and just I'm

01:17:01.680 --> 01:17:04.710
sure just looking in the backyard at an apartment but when

01:17:04.710 --> 01:17:05.840
we're looking at

01:17:05.840 --> 01:17:12.319
these distances and the landscaping requirements you know

01:17:12.319 --> 01:17:13.840
am I right to

01:17:13.840 --> 01:17:17.520
assume that that sort of mitigates some of those issues

01:17:17.520 --> 01:17:19.039
that it's not going to

01:17:19.039 --> 01:17:22.510
be an apartment right up to the on the boundary line that

01:17:22.510 --> 01:17:23.760
they're going to be

01:17:23.760 --> 01:17:27.159
able to somebody in the second floor look down on to them

01:17:27.159 --> 01:17:28.159
it was part of a

01:17:28.159 --> 01:17:31.439
staffs analysis that those increased setbacks did increase

01:17:31.439 --> 01:17:32.520
the compatibility

01:17:32.520 --> 01:17:35.609
with those adjacent residential properties because it minim

01:17:35.609 --> 01:17:36.239
izes those

01:17:36.239 --> 01:17:40.119
visual impacts of the of the proposed apartment buildings

01:17:40.119 --> 01:17:42.920
okay thank you sure

01:17:42.920 --> 01:17:46.680
Commissioner back thank you chair couple questions for

01:17:46.680 --> 01:17:47.119
Julie

01:17:47.119 --> 01:17:51.529
monkey back on Commissioner Sullivan's comments would it be

01:17:51.529 --> 01:17:53.159
safe to assume that

01:17:53.159 --> 01:17:56.329
the fact that we're coming in and developing or the

01:17:56.329 --> 01:17:57.399
applicant is going to

01:17:57.399 --> 01:18:01.859
develop this property that drainage would actually improve

01:18:01.859 --> 01:18:03.039
as a result that

01:18:03.039 --> 01:18:07.220
because now they've got to meet requirements that weren't

01:18:07.220 --> 01:18:08.880
in place back

01:18:08.880 --> 01:18:13.500
when the current owner was there that there were conditions

01:18:13.500 --> 01:18:14.399
there that

01:18:14.399 --> 01:18:18.319
contribute to poor drainage on owners property but now that

01:18:18.319 --> 01:18:18.840
the developers

01:18:18.840 --> 01:18:21.140
coming in they've got to ensure that we're not going to

01:18:21.140 --> 01:18:22.000
increase that or

01:18:22.000 --> 01:18:24.029
we're not going to add to that is that right they would

01:18:24.029 --> 01:18:24.680
have to make sure

01:18:24.680 --> 01:18:27.850
they're not negatively impact those adjacent properties

01:18:27.850 --> 01:18:29.319
okay also you

01:18:29.319 --> 01:18:32.739
pointed out that one of the conditions that have to be met

01:18:32.739 --> 01:18:34.760
for an SUP is that

01:18:34.760 --> 01:18:38.340
adequate nuisance prevention measures have been or will be

01:18:38.340 --> 01:18:39.560
taken to prevent or

01:18:39.560 --> 01:18:42.800
control offensive odors fumes dust noise and vibration so

01:18:42.800 --> 01:18:44.119
my question is

01:18:44.119 --> 01:18:49.720
who and how is this determined what source do you use to

01:18:49.720 --> 01:18:51.560
measure this is

01:18:51.560 --> 01:18:55.529
somebody going out checking routinely here in terms of the

01:18:55.529 --> 01:18:57.039
those types of

01:18:57.039 --> 01:19:00.460
nuisance those are typically nuisances we see with more

01:19:00.460 --> 01:19:01.399
intense uses not

01:19:01.399 --> 01:19:05.130
residential uses something like a an industrial use or

01:19:05.130 --> 01:19:06.560
maybe a even a more

01:19:06.560 --> 01:19:10.479
intense commercial use staff doesn't anticipate that that

01:19:10.479 --> 01:19:12.560
dust or fumes or

01:19:12.560 --> 01:19:17.430
noise or vibration that is inconsistent with what's what

01:19:17.430 --> 01:19:18.279
what a residential use

01:19:18.279 --> 01:19:22.899
would would produce is is going to be likely at this this

01:19:22.899 --> 01:19:25.000
site so we're not

01:19:25.000 --> 01:19:29.020
anticipating that a nuisance of that sort would be present

01:19:29.020 --> 01:19:29.960
here but if a

01:19:29.960 --> 01:19:33.430
resident nearby were to consider that such nuisance were

01:19:33.430 --> 01:19:34.359
going on they could

01:19:34.359 --> 01:19:39.210
call the city and y'all would respond to that certainly

01:19:39.210 --> 01:19:41.800
okay okay thank you

01:19:41.800 --> 01:19:48.130
Commissioner Sanchez when we're looking at the the old the

01:19:48.130 --> 01:19:49.840
trees there's quite a

01:19:49.840 --> 01:19:53.189
few older trees there and my concern is and you mentioned

01:19:53.189 --> 01:19:54.479
it earlier you go by

01:19:54.479 --> 01:19:59.079
caliper but is there a difference you consider trees a one

01:19:59.079 --> 01:20:00.239
that's eight inch

01:20:00.239 --> 01:20:05.439
DBH as opposed to one that would be like 30 inch DBH I mean

01:20:05.439 --> 01:20:06.920
that would have a lot

01:20:06.920 --> 01:20:11.109
more value even though it's there may they may will be oaks

01:20:11.109 --> 01:20:12.319
but the older the

01:20:12.319 --> 01:20:17.170
tree the more value it has because there's less of those

01:20:17.170 --> 01:20:18.279
kind of trees so

01:20:18.279 --> 01:20:22.750
is there anything in the in the plan that states okay the

01:20:22.750 --> 01:20:24.399
older tree will get

01:20:24.399 --> 01:20:28.090
three points well the same type of tree but at eight inch

01:20:28.090 --> 01:20:29.680
only gets one do you

01:20:29.680 --> 01:20:34.149
consider that at all the the way our tree code is written

01:20:34.149 --> 01:20:35.079
it's in sub chapter

01:20:35.079 --> 01:20:38.500
13 of the Denton Development Code and it does differentiate

01:20:38.500 --> 01:20:39.560
between tree sizes

01:20:39.560 --> 01:20:46.880
and also the some species of trees so there are there would

01:20:46.880 --> 01:20:47.960
be preservation

01:20:47.960 --> 01:20:53.880
requirements for protected trees versus let me

01:21:01.840 --> 01:21:05.850
there are protected trees there are also secondary trees

01:21:05.850 --> 01:21:07.880
and then there there are

01:21:07.880 --> 01:21:11.680
quality tree and quality tree stands so the size of the

01:21:11.680 --> 01:21:13.239
excuse me the size and

01:21:13.239 --> 01:21:16.329
species of the tree would determine that classification and

01:21:16.329 --> 01:21:17.359
there are different

01:21:17.359 --> 01:21:21.859
preservation requirements for each type so so depending on

01:21:21.859 --> 01:21:23.319
how those trees are

01:21:23.319 --> 01:21:26.170
classified as they get to that platting stage then they'll

01:21:26.170 --> 01:21:27.000
come up with their

01:21:27.000 --> 01:21:29.729
tree preservation plan at that point they would have to

01:21:29.729 --> 01:21:30.600
meet all of those

01:21:30.600 --> 01:21:36.140
sub chapter 13 requirements and one more question we talked

01:21:36.140 --> 01:21:37.560
about it's in the

01:21:37.560 --> 01:21:40.819
neighborhood university compatibility and we were my

01:21:40.819 --> 01:21:42.119
concern is you know if

01:21:42.119 --> 01:21:46.130
we're gonna provide housing for students what about by a

01:21:46.130 --> 01:21:47.720
lot of used bikes I know

01:21:47.720 --> 01:21:51.100
there is will be a bus route through there but there's a

01:21:51.100 --> 01:21:52.319
lot of students that

01:21:52.319 --> 01:21:55.840
also ride bikes and that would be a concern for me is that

01:21:55.840 --> 01:21:57.119
eventually we need

01:21:57.119 --> 01:22:01.619
to provide some safety because that road is very narrow and

01:22:01.619 --> 01:22:02.880
we don't want

01:22:02.880 --> 01:22:07.350
students to get hit driving to school or riding to school

01:22:07.350 --> 01:22:08.720
is there I know you

01:22:08.720 --> 01:22:14.079
mentioned something a future plan for route bike rights

01:22:14.079 --> 01:22:15.479
routes in that area

01:22:15.479 --> 01:22:19.100
well the city of Denton does have a bike plan that they are

01:22:19.100 --> 01:22:19.920
currently

01:22:19.920 --> 01:22:23.760
implementing and so there are different routes that will

01:22:23.760 --> 01:22:25.399
connect different bike

01:22:25.399 --> 01:22:28.390
routes within the city in order to connect residential

01:22:28.390 --> 01:22:29.359
areas with those

01:22:29.359 --> 01:22:34.720
nodes of education and employment so as that bike plan

01:22:34.720 --> 01:22:35.800
continues to be

01:22:35.800 --> 01:22:40.439
constructed that that bike network will just fill out more

01:22:40.439 --> 01:22:41.800
and provide more

01:22:41.800 --> 01:22:47.500
connections in terms of when when mingo would either get a

01:22:47.500 --> 01:22:48.880
bike lane or what is

01:22:48.880 --> 01:22:51.560
proposed for that I don't have that information with me I

01:22:51.560 --> 01:22:52.439
don't know when

01:22:52.439 --> 01:22:55.529
that would come about but I know that the city is looking

01:22:55.529 --> 01:22:56.439
at completing that

01:22:56.439 --> 01:22:58.920
network

01:23:01.399 --> 01:23:04.569
Commissioner Roselle thank you chair Julie was there any

01:23:04.569 --> 01:23:05.279
neighborhood meeting

01:23:05.279 --> 01:23:08.039
regarding this the applicant host a neighborhood meeting

01:23:08.039 --> 01:23:08.699
they did have a

01:23:08.699 --> 01:23:11.079
neighborhood meeting they had a neighborhood meeting over

01:23:11.079 --> 01:23:11.560
the summer I

01:23:11.560 --> 01:23:14.729
wasn't able to attend that was a City Council night but the

01:23:14.729 --> 01:23:15.720
applicant is here

01:23:15.720 --> 01:23:18.020
so they could probably give you more information about what

01:23:18.020 --> 01:23:18.800
transpired at the

01:23:18.800 --> 01:23:22.439
meeting okay perfect thank you sure Commissioner Ellis

01:23:22.439 --> 01:23:23.960
thank you chair Julie

01:23:23.960 --> 01:23:28.199
going back to road concerns traffic impact analysis is it

01:23:28.199 --> 01:23:29.399
required it

01:23:29.399 --> 01:23:31.850
wouldn't be required in this instance because it meet that

01:23:31.850 --> 01:23:32.720
doesn't meet those

01:23:32.720 --> 01:23:35.979
thresholds this the Denton Development Code has thresholds

01:23:35.979 --> 01:23:37.239
when that traffic

01:23:37.239 --> 01:23:42.119
impact analysis would be required and this

01:23:46.439 --> 01:23:51.720
based upon the trip generation manuals

01:23:55.680 --> 01:23:58.060
based upon the the eighth edition of the Institute of

01:23:58.060 --> 01:24:00.640
Transportation engineers

01:24:00.640 --> 01:24:05.279
trip generation manual the proposed use would generate 320

01:24:05.279 --> 01:24:06.680
daily vehicle trips

01:24:06.680 --> 01:24:10.920
and 33 evening peak hour trips the Denton Development Code

01:24:10.920 --> 01:24:11.960
requires that

01:24:11.960 --> 01:24:17.220
any use over a thousand vehicle trips per day or 100 peak

01:24:17.220 --> 01:24:18.720
hour trips would

01:24:18.720 --> 01:24:23.449
require a TI a because this one doesn't doesn't breach that

01:24:23.449 --> 01:24:24.600
threshold then it

01:24:24.600 --> 01:24:28.739
wouldn't be required in this instance so if engineering is

01:24:28.739 --> 01:24:30.000
going to determine if

01:24:30.000 --> 01:24:33.600
road improvements are necessary they just making that

01:24:33.600 --> 01:24:35.159
decision amongst

01:24:35.159 --> 01:24:38.119
themselves or they would look at those trips generation it

01:24:38.119 --> 01:24:39.239
had generated and

01:24:39.239 --> 01:24:42.930
how they're dispersed in the area so so it would it would

01:24:42.930 --> 01:24:44.399
be based upon that not

01:24:44.399 --> 01:24:49.939
necessarily a full TI a there may be I mean there could it

01:24:49.939 --> 01:24:51.239
doesn't meet the

01:24:51.239 --> 01:24:53.880
threshold of a TI a but if it did get to that point where

01:24:53.880 --> 01:24:54.840
they thought they

01:24:54.840 --> 01:24:57.420
needed it that is something that the applicant could

01:24:57.420 --> 01:24:58.439
discuss with engineering

01:24:58.439 --> 01:25:02.800
to ensure that the applicant or that the site is adequately

01:25:02.800 --> 01:25:04.359
served okay thank you

01:25:04.359 --> 01:25:12.319
sure any other questions for Julie thank you Julie this is

01:25:12.319 --> 01:25:14.279
a public hearing I do

01:25:14.279 --> 01:25:21.369
have one card wishing to speak Lawrence Hall Dorf speaking

01:25:21.369 --> 01:25:24.039
in support

01:25:27.960 --> 01:25:33.159
hello I'm Lawrence Holder 2415 North Elm Street Julie if

01:25:33.159 --> 01:25:33.840
you could help me put

01:25:33.840 --> 01:25:39.039
the slide on okay hold up

01:26:03.840 --> 01:26:06.840
it's good news

01:26:33.840 --> 01:26:35.899
you

01:27:03.840 --> 01:27:32.840
[ Pause ]

01:27:33.840 --> 01:28:01.840
[ Pause ]

01:28:02.840 --> 01:28:07.840
[ Pause ]

01:28:07.840 --> 01:28:09.840
>> I apologize for that.

01:28:09.840 --> 01:28:17.840
[ Pause ]

01:28:17.840 --> 01:28:23.380
Okay, as shown for the card that I turned in, I am Lawrence

01:28:23.380 --> 01:28:25.520
Holdworth, the engineer on this project representing Flumer

01:28:25.520 --> 01:28:28.930
-Rometti, the developer, and Amanda Austin, the owner of the

01:28:28.930 --> 01:28:29.840
property.

01:28:29.840 --> 01:28:34.840
We actually held two neighborhood meetings.

01:28:34.840 --> 01:28:37.840
They were held on 6/20 and 8/03.

01:28:37.840 --> 01:28:41.439
And both of those, we went for the first one to see what

01:28:41.439 --> 01:28:45.569
the neighborhood concerns were, and then we came back in 8/

01:28:45.569 --> 01:28:48.840
3 to kind of show them what we were at that time.

01:28:48.840 --> 01:28:51.090
So we took a concept plan to them, and then we came back

01:28:51.090 --> 01:28:53.189
showing them what we planned to do to address those

01:28:53.189 --> 01:28:53.840
concerns.

01:28:53.840 --> 01:28:57.710
The concerns that were addressed by the residents was the

01:28:57.710 --> 01:29:01.779
increase in traffic on Mingo Road, the exasperation of the

01:29:01.779 --> 01:29:03.840
existing drainage issues.

01:29:03.840 --> 01:29:07.010
So the increase in traffic on Mingo Road, as discussed

01:29:07.010 --> 01:29:10.409
earlier, Mingo Road is a secondary arterial, and it is

01:29:10.409 --> 01:29:13.840
going to be addressed for future improvement.

01:29:13.840 --> 01:29:18.250
And the exasperation of existing drainage issues, per the D

01:29:18.250 --> 01:29:22.840
ENT development code, we have to, as discussed earlier, not

01:29:22.840 --> 01:29:26.840
allow any additional negative impacts off-site.

01:29:26.840 --> 01:29:30.840
So we do plan to take our drainage into detention.

01:29:30.840 --> 01:29:34.500
We plan to take all that drainage down south, splitting it

01:29:34.500 --> 01:29:38.300
to the current drainage pattern, east and west, because we

01:29:38.300 --> 01:29:40.840
are actually on a divide right there.

01:29:40.840 --> 01:29:44.010
So we do not plan to take any drainage to the east and very

01:29:44.010 --> 01:29:47.140
limited drainage to the north, less flow than what is

01:29:47.140 --> 01:29:49.840
currently going to those directions now.

01:29:49.840 --> 01:29:52.500
The loss of privacy for residents back in the development,

01:29:52.500 --> 01:29:54.939
our buildings, as shown, are pulled far away from the

01:29:54.939 --> 01:29:57.840
property line, much further than what is actually required.

01:29:57.840 --> 01:30:01.420
The site plan actually is 44 feet away from the east

01:30:01.420 --> 01:30:05.180
property line, 35 feet being what is required per the

01:30:05.180 --> 01:30:09.369
height building setback, a 10-foot buffer along the north

01:30:09.369 --> 01:30:11.840
and the east is required as well.

01:30:11.840 --> 01:30:14.920
So we are pulling those buildings a little bit further back

01:30:14.920 --> 01:30:17.979
, providing a detention pond between the two so it's a nice

01:30:17.979 --> 01:30:23.930
green area, and then providing additional green space along

01:30:23.930 --> 01:30:25.840
the north side.

01:30:25.840 --> 01:30:30.229
The preservation of existing trees, we, through our site

01:30:30.229 --> 01:30:33.579
plan, we were able to pull the buildings in such a way that

01:30:33.579 --> 01:30:36.680
we were able to preserve the majority of all the existing

01:30:36.680 --> 01:30:39.840
trees on the site, way more than what is required.

01:30:39.840 --> 01:30:45.590
The required tree preservation at this time is about 25%,

01:30:45.590 --> 01:30:49.840
not about, it is 25% of quality trees.

01:30:49.840 --> 01:30:53.649
We are preserving more than 50%, I'm hoping to zoom in on

01:30:53.649 --> 01:30:56.840
that number here as soon as we get to that point.

01:30:56.840 --> 01:31:00.659
The additional residents are concerns, so we received a few

01:31:00.659 --> 01:31:04.119
letters, or at least one letter, that was requesting

01:31:04.119 --> 01:31:05.840
additional concerns.

01:31:05.840 --> 01:31:08.699
Noise and traffic congestion increased, the noise off of M

01:31:08.699 --> 01:31:10.840
ingo Road, as my understanding on that.

01:31:10.840 --> 01:31:15.180
Our buildings, the building, the landscaping, as well as

01:31:15.180 --> 01:31:19.270
the open space, should be able to mitigate that noise and

01:31:19.270 --> 01:31:22.840
that traffic volume noise from Mingo Street.

01:31:22.840 --> 01:31:25.930
So we're not just open clearing and providing a parking lot

01:31:25.930 --> 01:31:28.840
where noise would just be able to bounce and ricochet all

01:31:28.840 --> 01:31:30.840
the way back to those residents.

01:31:30.840 --> 01:31:34.060
Traffic congestion, again, it is a secondary arterial that

01:31:34.060 --> 01:31:36.840
has not been developed to its maximum potential.

01:31:36.840 --> 01:31:41.789
So as soon as it is developed at that time, we will be able

01:31:41.789 --> 01:31:45.840
to, it will be able to handle the traffic.

01:31:45.840 --> 01:31:50.439
Again, our site is only taking 320 trips, way under the

01:31:50.439 --> 01:31:55.840
thousand trips, and it's almost compatible with the trips

01:31:55.840 --> 01:31:59.289
that would be from single family residential that would be

01:31:59.289 --> 01:32:02.340
installed in this location, or constructed in this location

01:32:02.340 --> 01:32:02.840
as well.

01:32:02.840 --> 01:32:06.000
We have a willingness to work with the city engineer and

01:32:06.000 --> 01:32:07.840
with the traffic engineers.

01:32:07.840 --> 01:32:11.119
If any improvements are required, turn lanes, acceleration

01:32:11.119 --> 01:32:14.079
lanes, or anything of those natures are determined to be

01:32:14.079 --> 01:32:17.529
required, we will be working with them during the plotting

01:32:17.529 --> 01:32:21.229
process to provide those if required, and to determine if

01:32:21.229 --> 01:32:22.840
they are required.

01:32:22.840 --> 01:32:25.840
Property value decrease was another concern.

01:32:25.840 --> 01:32:29.880
We did a quick analysis just by grabbing a random home

01:32:29.880 --> 01:32:34.250
further north, and I can show you the slides as we get down

01:32:34.250 --> 01:32:39.050
to that point, further north on budding a development, the

01:32:39.050 --> 01:32:46.840
apartments that were built in 2005 or 2015, sorry.

01:32:46.840 --> 01:32:50.000
And to show that the apartments, even though they were

01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:53.069
built, the property values had decreased during the

01:32:53.069 --> 01:32:56.840
recession and then have been slowly increasing since then.

01:32:56.840 --> 01:32:59.699
And when that apartment complex was constructed, there was

01:32:59.699 --> 01:33:01.840
no negative impacts that were foreseen.

01:33:01.840 --> 01:33:05.850
Now we aren't a realty agent, so we can't determine whether

01:33:05.850 --> 01:33:08.840
or not there actually will be a decrease.

01:33:08.840 --> 01:33:12.229
However, it is our best judgment that property decrease is

01:33:12.229 --> 01:33:13.840
not going to be an issue.

01:33:13.840 --> 01:33:16.829
Request for turn lanes on Mingo, again that is being

01:33:16.829 --> 01:33:18.840
addressed at the planning process.

01:33:18.840 --> 01:33:21.930
We have more than a willingness to address deceleration

01:33:21.930 --> 01:33:24.840
lanes and turn lanes during the planning process.

01:33:24.840 --> 01:33:26.920
The request for walls are barriers between development and

01:33:26.920 --> 01:33:27.840
adjacent residents.

01:33:27.840 --> 01:33:31.840
There are currently fences out there now.

01:33:31.840 --> 01:33:34.840
There are currently trees along the buffer line.

01:33:34.840 --> 01:33:38.680
We are only removing the shrubbery that is not consistent

01:33:38.680 --> 01:33:42.039
or conducive to the buffer to be able to provide the

01:33:42.039 --> 01:33:45.840
required trees and shrubs for the development code.

01:33:45.840 --> 01:33:52.229
So we are trying to preserve all the trees and desired

01:33:52.229 --> 01:33:56.840
foliage in the buffer.

01:33:56.840 --> 01:34:00.000
Walls and barriers, at this time we have been discussing

01:34:00.000 --> 01:34:03.229
and we have been discussing with the city staff internally

01:34:03.229 --> 01:34:07.250
with the developer as well to provide, potentially provide

01:34:07.250 --> 01:34:08.840
a wall there.

01:34:08.840 --> 01:34:11.840
But at this time it is not required per the DDC.

01:34:11.840 --> 01:34:17.800
And we are hoping to look at the feasibility of that during

01:34:17.800 --> 01:34:21.840
the site plan and planning process.

01:34:21.840 --> 01:34:22.840
Again, this is actually a response.

01:34:22.840 --> 01:34:25.840
I just went ahead and wrote it out.

01:34:25.840 --> 01:34:28.840
I'll skip this because I already just said it.

01:34:28.840 --> 01:34:31.840
Additional site enhancements.

01:34:31.840 --> 01:34:36.840
Our buildings will have a very nice facade on them.

01:34:36.840 --> 01:34:40.199
They will look, they will present well from the street as

01:34:40.199 --> 01:34:41.840
well as from internally.

01:34:41.840 --> 01:34:45.460
We are providing a lot of open space and a detention

01:34:45.460 --> 01:34:49.460
between the building and the property owners as opposed to

01:34:49.460 --> 01:34:51.840
trying to provide that detention internally.

01:34:51.840 --> 01:34:55.010
We gave that as a buffer between the buildings and the

01:34:55.010 --> 01:34:55.840
residents.

01:34:55.840 --> 01:35:01.699
It is designed to be a pedestrian oriented development by

01:35:01.699 --> 01:35:07.300
providing connectivity internally, sidewalks and

01:35:07.300 --> 01:35:13.380
recreational areas as well as open space for pedestrian use

01:35:13.380 --> 01:35:13.840
.

01:35:13.840 --> 01:35:18.529
We are showing at this time and would like to present on

01:35:18.529 --> 01:35:23.279
the site plan as well bicycle racks, the community bicycle

01:35:23.279 --> 01:35:23.840
racks.

01:35:23.840 --> 01:35:26.840
I'm not sure if a lot of people are going to post those,

01:35:26.840 --> 01:35:32.840
but we are for the community bicycle racks at this time.

01:35:32.840 --> 01:35:37.090
And as well as covered bicycle racks or providing a storage

01:35:37.090 --> 01:35:38.840
facility for those.

01:35:38.840 --> 01:35:42.199
So we understand that some of the residents may be coming

01:35:42.199 --> 01:35:45.840
from the school and therefore will be riding their bike.

01:35:45.840 --> 01:35:48.119
And so we want to provide a safe and secure location for

01:35:48.119 --> 01:35:48.840
those bikes.

01:35:48.840 --> 01:35:56.840
The outdoor recreational area such as like a dog park or a

01:35:56.840 --> 01:36:00.970
ultimate frisbee area, something along those lines on the

01:36:00.970 --> 01:36:03.840
inside internal of our site.

01:36:03.840 --> 01:36:06.840
Our lot coverage currently is 38 percent.

01:36:06.840 --> 01:36:10.840
The inverse of that is 62 percent landscape.

01:36:10.840 --> 01:36:13.829
The maximum lot coverage is 60 percent or 40 percent

01:36:13.829 --> 01:36:14.840
required landscape.

01:36:14.840 --> 01:36:17.840
We are showing 62 percent landscape on our site.

01:36:17.840 --> 01:36:20.840
We are almost doubling our landscape requirement.

01:36:20.840 --> 01:36:25.340
So our site is in itself half the size that is required per

01:36:25.340 --> 01:36:27.840
the coverage requirement.

01:36:27.840 --> 01:36:32.609
So we are really trying to maximize that green space, that

01:36:32.609 --> 01:36:37.329
open feeling, that outdoor kind of pedestrian oriented

01:36:37.329 --> 01:36:38.840
development.

01:36:38.840 --> 01:36:43.390
We are limiting our structures to the two stories, to under

01:36:43.390 --> 01:36:45.840
the 40 feet, two story structures.

01:36:45.840 --> 01:36:49.890
That way we aren't proposing to go four story, three story

01:36:49.890 --> 01:36:53.970
thing along those lines where the abutting residents will

01:36:53.970 --> 01:36:57.869
fear that somebody that high can actually peer down into

01:36:57.869 --> 01:37:00.840
their backyards and into their home.

01:37:00.840 --> 01:37:07.060
So with the setback, with the buffers, with the trees and

01:37:07.060 --> 01:37:13.310
everything else along that comes with that, we will not be

01:37:13.310 --> 01:37:18.840
able to easily peer into neighbors backyards.

01:37:18.840 --> 01:37:21.350
The preservation of the majority of the existing on site

01:37:21.350 --> 01:37:21.840
trees.

01:37:21.840 --> 01:37:22.840
Again, I'm hoping to zoom to that.

01:37:22.840 --> 01:37:26.640
I went ahead and pulled up or put on here the landscape

01:37:26.640 --> 01:37:27.840
plan as well.

01:37:27.840 --> 01:37:30.840
Preserving at least 50 percent of the trees.

01:37:30.840 --> 01:37:32.840
I can't remember the exact number.

01:37:32.840 --> 01:37:35.840
Just left my mind where I stepped up here.

01:37:35.840 --> 01:37:38.310
Willingness to provide an eight foot sidewalk along Mingo

01:37:38.310 --> 01:37:38.840
Street.

01:37:38.840 --> 01:37:42.310
We have discussed this with the city staff and with the

01:37:42.310 --> 01:37:45.840
residents that we would like to increase right now.

01:37:45.840 --> 01:37:47.840
Secondary tier requires a five foot sidewalk.

01:37:47.840 --> 01:37:49.840
We would like to increase that five foot to an eight foot.

01:37:49.840 --> 01:37:54.359
By increasing that, it provides a wider area for

01:37:54.359 --> 01:37:59.439
pedestrians as well as accessibility for a bicycle for

01:37:59.439 --> 01:38:01.840
passing pedestrians.

01:38:01.840 --> 01:38:08.000
So we would like to or we would like to work with the city

01:38:08.000 --> 01:38:13.840
to provide an eight foot sidewalk if we are able to.

01:38:13.840 --> 01:38:17.979
Again, the concept plan that was shown with Julie's

01:38:17.979 --> 01:38:21.840
presentation and then the landscape number.

01:38:21.840 --> 01:38:23.840
So I can zoom in and see if it's any clear.

01:38:23.840 --> 01:38:28.840
And I can't get far enough in.

01:38:28.840 --> 01:38:31.840
It's at least 50 percent.

01:38:31.840 --> 01:38:34.840
If not more, again, 25 percent is required.

01:38:34.840 --> 01:38:38.859
So here is the notification map that had the neighborhood

01:38:38.859 --> 01:38:39.840
concerns.

01:38:39.840 --> 01:38:43.520
And we took 1509 Creek Avenue, just randomly grabbed their

01:38:43.520 --> 01:38:47.050
site and looked up on DCAD to see property values and

01:38:47.050 --> 01:38:52.840
looking past back the past nine years.

01:38:52.840 --> 01:38:55.060
Past the recession, there has been a steady increase in

01:38:55.060 --> 01:38:58.199
property value, even though the development to the west was

01:38:58.199 --> 01:39:02.979
constructed in 2002 and the apartment complexes, which

01:39:02.979 --> 01:39:05.840
would be abutting their property, was built in 2015.

01:39:05.840 --> 01:39:11.720
So we responsibly believe that a multifamily residential

01:39:11.720 --> 01:39:15.840
will not negatively impact this area.

01:39:15.840 --> 01:39:16.840
That is my presentation at this time.

01:39:16.840 --> 01:39:18.840
If you have any questions.

01:39:18.840 --> 01:39:19.840
Got a couple of questions.

01:39:19.840 --> 01:39:20.840
Commissioner Smith.

01:39:20.840 --> 01:39:21.840
Thank you, Chair.

01:39:21.840 --> 01:39:25.840
The proposed use is for student housing, correct?

01:39:25.840 --> 01:39:35.909
It was suggested that it was student housing. I guess

01:39:35.909 --> 01:39:36.479
really the question I have is that whenever you talk to a

01:39:36.479 --> 01:39:37.079
developer, as I'm bringing in student housing, they're

01:39:37.079 --> 01:39:38.489
envisioning creating apartment complexes that have a one to

01:39:38.489 --> 01:39:41.840
one ratio of bathroom to bedroom.

01:39:41.840 --> 01:39:44.250
You know, if it's a four bedroom, four bedroom apartment,

01:39:44.250 --> 01:39:46.840
it's going to have four bathrooms or maybe two bathrooms.

01:39:46.840 --> 01:39:49.819
But it's designed to where you can have individual units

01:39:49.819 --> 01:39:51.840
inside the apartment unit itself.

01:39:51.840 --> 01:39:54.750
Is the design of these apartment complexes proposed to be

01:39:54.750 --> 01:39:57.600
designed to be marketable towards students or is it going

01:39:57.600 --> 01:40:00.479
to be apartment complexes that will probably be students

01:40:00.479 --> 01:40:03.489
because of proximity to the university, but not going to be

01:40:03.489 --> 01:40:05.840
designed necessarily targeting them?

01:40:05.840 --> 01:40:06.840
More of the latter.

01:40:06.840 --> 01:40:10.729
We, of course, welcome the student population to rent from

01:40:10.729 --> 01:40:14.619
these apartments or rent these apartments, but they are not

01:40:14.619 --> 01:40:18.840
specifically designed to go directly after those students.

01:40:18.840 --> 01:40:23.590
It is a two bedroom unit. I don't know the exact bathroom

01:40:23.590 --> 01:40:28.279
to bedroom count. My understanding is that it is at this

01:40:28.279 --> 01:40:30.840
time still being finalized.

01:40:30.840 --> 01:40:34.699
It is going to be one bathroom for two bedrooms, but that

01:40:34.699 --> 01:40:38.840
can vary depending on what floor or the ultimate layout.

01:40:38.840 --> 01:40:41.930
But again, we are trying to welcome the students, but we're

01:40:41.930 --> 01:40:43.840
not going specifically for them.

01:40:43.840 --> 01:40:46.840
So it could be a mix of student and family use.

01:40:46.840 --> 01:40:49.840
Absolutely, sir.

01:40:49.840 --> 01:40:51.840
Commissioner back. Thank you, Chair.

01:40:51.840 --> 01:40:54.420
Thank you, Mr. Holder for your presentation. And let me

01:40:54.420 --> 01:40:56.840
compliment you on your development.

01:40:56.840 --> 01:41:01.180
I like a lot of things that you're going to do that you're

01:41:01.180 --> 01:41:04.840
planning on doing the preservation of trees.

01:41:04.840 --> 01:41:15.600
Possibility of widening the sidewalk for both pedestrian

01:41:15.600 --> 01:41:17.840
and bike. On that one particular thing, are you just

01:41:17.840 --> 01:41:17.840
considering that eight foot width just in front of your

01:41:17.840 --> 01:41:17.840
development or would you be willing to work with the city

01:41:17.840 --> 01:41:17.840
to take it all the way down to Roodale?

01:41:17.840 --> 01:41:21.310
Take the eight foot sidewalk or the existing sidewalk to

01:41:21.310 --> 01:41:24.500
replace the existing sidewalk that's in front of the

01:41:24.500 --> 01:41:28.840
development to the well or add to it.

01:41:28.840 --> 01:41:31.840
That would be something that we would have to.

01:41:31.840 --> 01:41:35.829
And I wasn't trying to get you. I was just curious whether

01:41:35.829 --> 01:41:38.079
that was thought evidently it wasn't something you're just

01:41:38.079 --> 01:41:39.840
looking at in front of your development.

01:41:39.840 --> 01:41:43.310
Okay, good. That's her. And you did indicate these were two

01:41:43.310 --> 01:41:46.840
stories. So we're not that's not going to change.

01:41:46.840 --> 01:41:48.989
Okay, story is not going to change from the two story. We

01:41:48.989 --> 01:41:51.840
are maximizing the unit count at this time.

01:41:51.840 --> 01:41:55.600
So we do not have the additional units to go vertically or

01:41:55.600 --> 01:41:59.779
horizontally. We cannot expand the buildings at this time

01:41:59.779 --> 01:42:03.600
we may be able to make the square footage slightly bigger,

01:42:03.600 --> 01:42:06.449
but we cannot make, unless we eliminate one building and

01:42:06.449 --> 01:42:08.710
stack it on top of the other at this point which we, there

01:42:08.710 --> 01:42:10.840
's no reason to do.

01:42:10.840 --> 01:42:14.189
And we do not propose that at this time. And that's very

01:42:14.189 --> 01:42:17.720
appealing because that that lower high takes that concern

01:42:17.720 --> 01:42:21.010
away from the residents that should be able to look in,

01:42:21.010 --> 01:42:24.430
considering you got a, I think a 44 foot distance between

01:42:24.430 --> 01:42:30.840
the property and there's

01:42:30.840 --> 01:42:34.560
the issue with offense and privacy fence mentioned those

01:42:34.560 --> 01:42:38.180
apartments up on university, where it hasn't affected

01:42:38.180 --> 01:42:41.930
property values there they do have a six foot high masonry

01:42:41.930 --> 01:42:43.840
fence all the way around.

01:42:43.840 --> 01:42:47.659
I realize that in homeowners there had some fences of their

01:42:47.659 --> 01:42:51.210
own to now we're driving down boy and seminal and notice

01:42:51.210 --> 01:42:54.470
there are some six foot would privacy fences in the

01:42:54.470 --> 01:42:58.359
backyard, but that's an older development there's still a

01:42:58.359 --> 01:43:00.840
lot of chain lead fence four foot high.

01:43:00.840 --> 01:43:06.329
So, that aspect of the privacy is lost. Now, the areas that

01:43:06.329 --> 01:43:10.859
are going to back up to these houses on both boy and sem

01:43:10.859 --> 01:43:15.770
inal are going to be the open spaces and detention area so

01:43:15.770 --> 01:43:19.840
not necessarily a lot of people out there but

01:43:19.840 --> 01:43:24.279
would you be willing to work with the homeowners as far as

01:43:24.279 --> 01:43:28.699
upgrading their fence a little bit to afford a little bit

01:43:28.699 --> 01:43:32.060
more privacy is that a possibility. Yes, so at the time of

01:43:32.060 --> 01:43:32.680
these neighborhood means one that concern was brought up

01:43:32.680 --> 01:43:33.840
and we had expressed with

01:43:33.840 --> 01:43:37.869
residents that we would work with them to improve their

01:43:37.869 --> 01:43:42.069
existing fence, if it does not meet that requirement the

01:43:42.069 --> 01:43:46.180
six foot height or privacy fence if they are accepting of

01:43:46.180 --> 01:43:49.840
that we're not going to force that upon them.

01:43:49.840 --> 01:43:54.180
We have discussed with staff and will be discussing with

01:43:54.180 --> 01:43:58.710
staff, the buffer alternative to provide a fence as opposed

01:43:58.710 --> 01:44:03.210
to the shrubs, which in my opinion, would be better for

01:44:03.210 --> 01:44:07.909
this kind of a development but not as foliage in the

01:44:07.909 --> 01:44:09.840
appealing.

01:44:09.840 --> 01:44:13.310
Either or we will be adhering to the development code on

01:44:13.310 --> 01:44:16.779
that so we don't plan to create additional buffer we feel

01:44:16.779 --> 01:44:20.310
as though we have provided enough mitigation for that by

01:44:20.310 --> 01:44:23.840
pulling our buildings away and providing the required

01:44:23.840 --> 01:44:24.840
buffer, so we would just be

01:44:24.840 --> 01:44:30.409
putting the buffer to a buffer that has a fence and then

01:44:30.409 --> 01:44:36.119
would require think it's five trees or four trees every

01:44:36.119 --> 01:44:39.840
hundred feet then at that point.

01:44:39.840 --> 01:44:55.050
So, fence. It's okay. Well, and we'll discuss that moving

01:44:55.050 --> 01:44:55.239
forward so we are looking at hopefully trying to provide a

01:44:55.239 --> 01:44:55.449
fence we have been talking with the developer about that

01:44:55.449 --> 01:44:55.649
providing a fence but at this time we have not finalized

01:44:55.649 --> 01:44:55.840
that decision.

01:44:55.840 --> 01:44:59.329
But we will be working with them we have expressed my agree

01:44:59.329 --> 01:45:02.750
the tree buffer would be good it diminishes it but I think

01:45:02.750 --> 01:45:06.189
the thing with most homeowners going to be the top side it

01:45:06.189 --> 01:45:09.840
's out of mind so if there's that visuals still there.

01:45:09.840 --> 01:45:15.689
If you do have a chain link fence and the tree barrier just

01:45:15.689 --> 01:45:21.289
doesn't quite do the trick you would be willing to work

01:45:21.289 --> 01:45:26.090
with them and erect a price for privacy. Yes sir. How would

01:45:26.090 --> 01:45:26.840
they approach you, how would they go about approaching you.

01:45:26.840 --> 01:45:31.340
That is a very good question. That was one of those things

01:45:31.340 --> 01:45:35.489
where we believe that we would be able to approach that

01:45:35.489 --> 01:45:39.949
person at that time saying, your fence appears to not be a

01:45:39.949 --> 01:45:43.840
privacy fence would you like to for us to upgrade that.

01:45:43.840 --> 01:45:47.130
And if that doesn't happen, then we know that they would be

01:45:47.130 --> 01:45:50.159
more than if they are opposed to this they would be more

01:45:50.159 --> 01:45:53.689
than apt to approaching us. Okay, so at that time we would,

01:45:53.689 --> 01:45:56.840
oh okay you, you would like us to improve that.

01:45:56.840 --> 01:45:58.840
So either or.

01:45:58.840 --> 01:46:01.579
And both, I think is how we plan to do that we actually

01:46:01.579 --> 01:46:04.840
didn't write anything down at this time is how to do that.

01:46:04.840 --> 01:46:07.069
That's a very good logistic question that I'm not really

01:46:07.069 --> 01:46:07.840
thought about.

01:46:07.840 --> 01:46:10.840
Okay, I'm glad to raise it there. Thank you very much.

01:46:10.840 --> 01:46:11.840
Thank you.

01:46:11.840 --> 01:46:13.840
Commissioner Sanchez.

01:46:13.840 --> 01:46:19.840
Okay, Julie.

01:46:19.840 --> 01:46:24.689
One of the questions is, they haven't met the threshold you

01:46:24.689 --> 01:46:26.840
said as far as traffic.

01:46:26.840 --> 01:46:30.619
What if later on once the bit, and that's going to be, I

01:46:30.619 --> 01:46:34.529
guess that that analysis has been done prior to building

01:46:34.529 --> 01:46:39.000
the apartments. What about, say, a few months later, and,

01:46:39.000 --> 01:46:41.840
and the traffic gets pretty heavy.

01:46:41.840 --> 01:46:49.970
And then the residents in that neighborhood then petition

01:46:49.970 --> 01:46:56.840
the city to do a re analysis of the, of the traffic.

01:46:56.840 --> 01:47:02.329
Make sure I understand your question so your question is

01:47:02.329 --> 01:47:07.810
that if trap anticipated traffic is actually higher once

01:47:07.810 --> 01:47:11.840
the, once the multifamily was built. Yes, what a new

01:47:11.840 --> 01:47:11.840
analysis of that traffic impact.

01:47:11.840 --> 01:47:15.180
People really feel that it's impact the traffic has

01:47:15.180 --> 01:47:19.340
increased, and therefore it's impacting, you know, the area

01:47:19.340 --> 01:47:23.090
, could they go back to the city and say, hey, now we, you

01:47:23.090 --> 01:47:26.779
know, we really feel that it's a lot worse and what you had

01:47:26.779 --> 01:47:27.840
told us.

01:47:27.840 --> 01:47:32.579
And then the city re analysis, re analysis re analyze that

01:47:32.579 --> 01:47:37.279
and then have the city do something. I'm not aware of a

01:47:37.279 --> 01:47:41.600
mechanism by which a new analysis of the traffic could be

01:47:41.600 --> 01:47:44.840
done in terms of this development.

01:47:44.840 --> 01:47:48.140
However, the city or traffic engineer and our engineering

01:47:48.140 --> 01:47:51.029
department as a whole is looking at all of the traffic

01:47:51.029 --> 01:47:54.279
within the city and seeing what improvements can be made to

01:47:54.279 --> 01:47:56.970
our infrastructure so it might be part of a larger

01:47:56.970 --> 01:48:01.100
discussion about the greater network, but in terms of with

01:48:01.100 --> 01:48:02.840
this project, I don't.

01:48:02.840 --> 01:48:05.840
I don't know of a mechanism that there are a reevaluation

01:48:05.840 --> 01:48:09.289
could happen. I was just curious you know sometimes people,

01:48:09.289 --> 01:48:12.539
you know, we make analysis and they're not correct. And so

01:48:12.539 --> 01:48:15.840
sometimes we have to go back and re look at it revisit it.

01:48:15.840 --> 01:48:19.579
And that's all that was my question. If, if what the

01:48:19.579 --> 01:48:23.810
analysis that has been done. It doesn't pan out, then what

01:48:23.810 --> 01:48:27.420
do we do the residents have a way to go back to the city

01:48:27.420 --> 01:48:31.479
engineers, or maybe even just as a group, they can go back

01:48:31.479 --> 01:48:32.840
to the city.

01:48:32.840 --> 01:48:36.550
The neighborhood can go back hate. Could you read evaluate

01:48:36.550 --> 01:48:40.119
the traffic here. I would always encourage residents to

01:48:40.119 --> 01:48:43.569
communicate with the city about what's going on in their

01:48:43.569 --> 01:48:46.840
neighborhood so I think that's a good thing to do.

01:48:46.840 --> 01:48:49.840
Go back to the city and see.

01:48:49.840 --> 01:48:56.659
Let us know where the issue areas are so that as plans move

01:48:56.659 --> 01:49:02.840
forward, those can be addressed. Yes, sir.

01:49:02.840 --> 01:49:04.840
This is a public hearing.

01:49:04.840 --> 01:49:07.479
Anyone who would like to speak on this item is welcome to

01:49:07.479 --> 01:49:09.840
come down at this time I don't have any cards.

01:49:09.840 --> 01:49:12.479
If you do choose to come speak if you'll fill out a card

01:49:12.479 --> 01:49:15.239
for us after you speak will be fine. So come on down and

01:49:15.239 --> 01:49:18.069
give us your name and address and then just fill out a card

01:49:18.069 --> 01:49:19.840
before you leave this evening.

01:49:19.840 --> 01:49:24.449
My name is James Vicki I live at 1510 Seminole Avenue I'm

01:49:24.449 --> 01:49:28.659
north and center of the property that's being proposed for

01:49:28.659 --> 01:49:29.840
the change.

01:49:29.840 --> 01:49:33.090
I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with the redo of

01:49:33.090 --> 01:49:36.050
the design from the one that I saw in August, they did

01:49:36.050 --> 01:49:39.439
manage to pull the property away they gave us homeowners, a

01:49:39.439 --> 01:49:41.840
little bit more space to breathe.

01:49:41.840 --> 01:49:46.590
I do have a few concerns, and one is, like, Mr. Beck said

01:49:46.590 --> 01:49:51.279
here, most of us have four foot chain link fences so while

01:49:51.279 --> 01:49:55.590
the trees are beautiful, I think the fence would would

01:49:55.590 --> 01:50:00.149
offer us a little bit more privacy people from keep people

01:50:00.149 --> 01:50:01.840
from walking on to our property easily jumping the fence

01:50:01.840 --> 01:50:05.699
doing whatever you know just in case we want to keep honest

01:50:05.699 --> 01:50:09.659
people honest I suppose. Another issue that I have is, I

01:50:09.659 --> 01:50:13.430
don't know if you guys can see it now, but on the northern

01:50:13.430 --> 01:50:15.840
end, they have set of dumpsters.

01:50:15.840 --> 01:50:19.729
And I was concerned my wife and I are concerned that this

01:50:19.729 --> 01:50:24.399
is a dumpster been for 48 apartments and it's 10 feet from

01:50:24.399 --> 01:50:28.930
my house and I would like, if possible for the developer to

01:50:28.930 --> 01:50:32.710
consider moving that maybe somewhere further on to their

01:50:32.710 --> 01:50:33.840
property.

01:50:33.840 --> 01:50:39.579
Instead of on mine and my neighbors, you know the

01:50:39.579 --> 01:50:45.840
summertime I would be concerned about the smells.

01:50:45.840 --> 01:50:49.840
Another issue that wasn't mentioned.

01:50:49.840 --> 01:50:54.340
I think is of importance to is that even though there's

01:50:54.340 --> 01:50:59.279
green space on the northern end of their property. I'm

01:50:59.279 --> 01:51:03.840
wondering what the lighting situation would be like. Right

01:51:03.840 --> 01:51:03.840
now we all enjoy very dark backyards which is which is nice

01:51:03.840 --> 01:51:03.840
.

01:51:03.840 --> 01:51:09.199
I'm wondering if they might be able to address or, or the

01:51:09.199 --> 01:51:13.840
concern of lighting up the backyards a little bit too much.

01:51:13.840 --> 01:51:16.840
If they do have lighting back there whatsoever.

01:51:16.840 --> 01:51:21.369
A couple questions for you. Commissioner Alice. Thank you,

01:51:21.369 --> 01:51:23.979
Chair. Thank you for bringing your concerns up I think my

01:51:23.979 --> 01:51:26.449
question might be for staff I had the same thought you did

01:51:26.449 --> 01:51:28.979
with regard to the dumpsters and their location and the

01:51:28.979 --> 01:51:29.840
conceptual plan.

01:51:29.840 --> 01:51:36.329
And I believe this is to be addressed at site pant plan

01:51:36.329 --> 01:51:39.840
approval if I am correct.

01:51:39.840 --> 01:51:43.010
Excellent so that is to be brought up then and will

01:51:43.010 --> 01:51:46.199
hopefully be addressed because I agree I don't like the

01:51:46.199 --> 01:51:47.840
location of it at all.

01:51:47.840 --> 01:51:50.840
It's very close.

01:51:50.840 --> 01:51:53.840
The question has been removed so that's.

01:51:53.840 --> 01:52:20.060
Commissioner back. Thank you, Chair, Julie, could you come

01:52:20.060 --> 01:52:20.380
up and kind of explain the city of the requirements about

01:52:20.380 --> 01:52:20.840
lighting and something like this to allow changes concerns.

01:52:20.840 --> 01:52:25.210
So chapter 13 outlines the requirements for lighting at the

01:52:25.210 --> 01:52:29.130
property line light may may not measure more than one half

01:52:29.130 --> 01:52:33.260
foot candle of illumination, unless it's a pedestrian area

01:52:33.260 --> 01:52:37.439
in that back property, the northern property line wouldn't

01:52:37.439 --> 01:52:40.840
be a pedestrian area so they couldn't measure more than one

01:52:40.840 --> 01:52:44.500
half foot candle and it would also have to be shielded for

01:52:44.500 --> 01:52:47.840
upward diffusion to minimize that as well.

01:52:47.840 --> 01:52:51.840
Okay, thank you.

01:52:51.840 --> 01:52:54.609
I guess I should say a photo metric plan is reviewed at

01:52:54.609 --> 01:52:57.649
building permits to ensure that that is the requirements

01:52:57.649 --> 01:53:01.010
met right we'll be looking at in greater detail later.

01:53:01.010 --> 01:53:01.840
Thanks.

01:53:01.840 --> 01:53:04.699
Commissioner result you have a question I don't know if it

01:53:04.699 --> 01:53:05.840
'd be for staff or.

01:53:05.840 --> 01:53:08.840
Yeah, it's for Julie thanks chair.

01:53:08.840 --> 01:53:12.630
Can you help us with this process a little bit is there a

01:53:12.630 --> 01:53:16.170
way to put in a request to have these dual dumpsters

01:53:16.170 --> 01:53:20.060
already address a plot or is it going to be on us that when

01:53:20.060 --> 01:53:21.840
a plaque comes back.

01:53:21.840 --> 01:53:25.170
We bring it up and correct it at that time is there any way

01:53:25.170 --> 01:53:28.609
to be proactive in that filing or or us just encourage the

01:53:28.609 --> 01:53:31.989
applicant to make that change when bringing to plot what

01:53:31.989 --> 01:53:35.840
can we do to, because that is a less than ideal location.

01:53:35.840 --> 01:53:40.180
Certainly, so if the, if the SUP if the zoning and SUP are

01:53:40.180 --> 01:53:44.529
approved by Council, then a plot would be approved by the

01:53:44.529 --> 01:53:49.159
planning and zoning Commission, but the dumpster location

01:53:49.159 --> 01:53:53.470
wouldn't be reflected on that plot so and then the site

01:53:53.470 --> 01:53:55.989
plan and building permit would be staff level approved so

01:53:55.989 --> 01:53:59.380
you wouldn't necessarily see that dumpster location so if

01:53:59.380 --> 01:54:01.840
that is something that you wanted to add as a condition

01:54:01.840 --> 01:54:04.270
that or, you know, bring that up as a condition it

01:54:04.270 --> 01:54:04.840
certainly serves that purpose.

01:54:04.840 --> 01:54:08.319
If that's a condition it's certainly something that you

01:54:08.319 --> 01:54:11.949
could address at this time, but there wouldn't be a future

01:54:11.949 --> 01:54:15.600
opportunity to discuss that that location, other than it

01:54:15.600 --> 01:54:17.840
staff approved at staff level.

01:54:17.840 --> 01:54:18.840
Thank you.

01:54:18.840 --> 01:54:20.840
Yes, thank you.

01:54:20.840 --> 01:54:21.840
Commissioner Smith.

01:54:21.840 --> 01:54:22.840
Thank you, chair.

01:54:22.840 --> 01:54:27.250
So you said dumpsters in the location, but commercial

01:54:27.250 --> 01:54:32.279
commercial properties and their dumpsters users, next to

01:54:32.279 --> 01:54:35.840
that but a residential users own property.

01:54:35.840 --> 01:54:38.840
Their DDC code for that or is there.

01:54:38.840 --> 01:54:41.220
They would just have to meet buffer requirements. What's

01:54:41.220 --> 01:54:44.319
the buffer requirements we know that that well if I believe

01:54:44.319 --> 01:54:47.430
the commercial against single family residential is the 15

01:54:47.430 --> 01:54:50.250
foot landscape buffer so it would be that landscape buffer

01:54:50.250 --> 01:54:51.840
and then I think six trees and a certain number of shrubs

01:54:51.840 --> 01:54:55.220
of 15 of landscape buffer so it's something that we could

01:54:55.220 --> 01:54:58.449
as we go to vote on this EP. We could say it's a 15 we

01:54:58.449 --> 01:55:01.840
think that it should be 30 or something like that.

01:55:01.840 --> 01:55:05.840
You could certainly address that location and in some form.

01:55:05.840 --> 01:55:08.220
Yes, more or less just want to know what it was now I want

01:55:08.220 --> 01:55:10.840
to say let's do 15 and it's all it's already 15.

01:55:10.840 --> 01:55:13.840
Right now it's 10 right now they have it at 10.

01:55:13.840 --> 01:55:16.840
Okay.

01:55:16.840 --> 01:55:18.840
Commissioner Alice.

01:55:18.840 --> 01:55:22.010
Thank you at this point I think my questions for the

01:55:22.010 --> 01:55:22.840
applicant.

01:55:22.840 --> 01:55:27.689
Regarding this dumpster location. Is there another location

01:55:27.689 --> 01:55:31.619
that it could be on the site plan for the applicant, you

01:55:31.619 --> 01:55:34.840
address your question to the applicant.

01:55:34.840 --> 01:55:39.770
Yeah, I'm assuming that perhaps it's here because that's

01:55:39.770 --> 01:55:44.689
where it made sense to you as, is there another location it

01:55:44.689 --> 01:55:45.840
could go.

01:55:45.840 --> 01:55:51.090
So the dumpster can be located anywhere on site as long as

01:55:51.090 --> 01:55:56.439
it has adequate access for waste management so a dumpster

01:55:56.439 --> 01:56:01.899
that is believe it's 14 foot by 22 feet dual dumpster has

01:56:01.899 --> 01:56:06.909
to have 50 feet of clearance behind it so the way that we

01:56:06.909 --> 01:56:11.840
reason why we placed it where we did, which actually

01:56:11.840 --> 01:56:14.770
is, is 10 feet off of the property line was because the

01:56:14.770 --> 01:56:17.609
waste management would be able to work its way up through

01:56:17.609 --> 01:56:20.369
grab that dumpster come back through and then loop back

01:56:20.369 --> 01:56:23.010
back around I guess I can use the mouse as opposed to my

01:56:23.010 --> 01:56:23.840
fingers.

01:56:23.840 --> 01:56:26.220
So to come up, it would hit that dumpster come back and

01:56:26.220 --> 01:56:29.220
then would come back out the site. So we could locate that

01:56:29.220 --> 01:56:33.279
somewhere else as long as the 50 foot and the 50 foot would

01:56:33.279 --> 01:56:36.689
be roughly see if that's so many foot it'd be roughly about

01:56:36.689 --> 01:56:37.840
down to here.

01:56:37.840 --> 01:56:41.060
So as we rotate that you have to keep in mind that that the

01:56:41.060 --> 01:56:44.420
dumpster itself is not the only part that has to rotate you

01:56:44.420 --> 01:56:47.779
have to have that access or else waste management will not

01:56:47.779 --> 01:56:48.840
accept that.

01:56:48.840 --> 01:56:52.720
So we could relocate it out into the middle of somewhere or

01:56:52.720 --> 01:56:56.180
pull it off but I mean now you're talking additional

01:56:56.180 --> 01:56:59.810
concrete additional pavement for something of just

01:56:59.810 --> 01:57:01.840
providing the dumpster.

01:57:01.840 --> 01:57:07.840
This dumpster here is in close proximity, close enough

01:57:07.840 --> 01:57:14.090
proximity to the apartments that we felt that it was viable

01:57:14.090 --> 01:57:16.840
to to locate it there.

01:57:16.840 --> 01:57:19.579
We typically do not like to try to put dumpsters in the

01:57:19.579 --> 01:57:22.460
front of the development as you have to screen that from

01:57:22.460 --> 01:57:25.380
the right of way so as traffic drives along the road you do

01:57:25.380 --> 01:57:28.319
not want to be able to look into as you're driving your car

01:57:28.319 --> 01:57:30.840
look into a development see dumpster.

01:57:30.840 --> 01:57:34.649
We understand that we do have to provide gates doors were

01:57:34.649 --> 01:57:38.529
not to prevent those dumpster from being readily seeable

01:57:38.529 --> 01:57:41.840
but being honest they're not always closed.

01:57:41.840 --> 01:57:44.840
So, we do like to screen those.

01:57:44.840 --> 01:57:46.869
We typically try to put them behind building or towards the

01:57:46.869 --> 01:57:49.939
back of a development. So that is the reason for this, this

01:57:49.939 --> 01:57:52.840
SCP putting it in the back of the development.

01:57:52.840 --> 01:57:58.840
During the site plan phase we will be locking that down.

01:57:58.840 --> 01:58:03.159
And I understand typically that is where you'd have it but

01:58:03.159 --> 01:58:07.119
that is where we have our current residents of single

01:58:07.119 --> 01:58:10.720
family property so it is less than ideal if it was

01:58:10.720 --> 01:58:15.130
something that was this commissioners pleasure to want to

01:58:15.130 --> 01:58:19.239
to change and make it conditional upon approval today would

01:58:19.239 --> 01:58:21.840
that be something that you would entertain.

01:58:21.840 --> 01:58:26.609
We would definitely entertain relocating the dumpster and

01:58:26.609 --> 01:58:29.840
working with city staff to to do that.

01:58:29.840 --> 01:58:34.739
We will have to look at possible locations for that again

01:58:34.739 --> 01:58:40.069
we are trying to preserve the trees preserve the atmosphere

01:58:40.069 --> 01:58:41.840
for that open space.

01:58:41.840 --> 01:58:47.449
Playground kind of area in the middle between the buildings

01:58:47.449 --> 01:58:47.840
.

01:58:47.840 --> 01:58:51.340
So we don't want to locate it in the middle of the property

01:58:51.340 --> 01:58:54.689
we're trying to avoid that so we could try to put it down

01:58:54.689 --> 01:58:58.260
in the West property line or towards the West, hearing to

01:58:58.260 --> 01:59:00.840
the fire lane radius on a 20 foot.

01:59:00.840 --> 01:59:04.840
You're getting.

01:59:04.840 --> 01:59:08.479
We've been willing to look into relocating it where we're

01:59:08.479 --> 01:59:11.890
ultimately will go it looks as though we have to do some

01:59:11.890 --> 01:59:15.550
geometric changing to the roads into the parking in order

01:59:15.550 --> 01:59:17.840
to to fit that somewhere else.

01:59:17.840 --> 01:59:22.970
But we are more than willing to to look in to that, for

01:59:22.970 --> 01:59:23.840
sure.

01:59:23.840 --> 01:59:27.729
The question on the trash bins that all gets reviewed by

01:59:27.729 --> 01:59:31.869
the solid waste department at ultimately they're going to

01:59:31.869 --> 01:59:35.840
be the ones that are going to say we can get trucks in.

01:59:35.840 --> 01:59:39.420
And I don't know if the commission would be willing to to

01:59:39.420 --> 01:59:43.180
give staff development review committee staff like we do a

01:59:43.180 --> 01:59:44.840
lot of other things.

01:59:44.840 --> 01:59:48.039
I think the concern has been raised by the residents I

01:59:48.039 --> 01:59:51.609
think obviously commission responded to it it's a concern

01:59:51.609 --> 01:59:54.630
that we could just say we had over to to DRC as it gets

01:59:54.630 --> 01:59:58.189
through the moves through planning and site plan for that

01:59:58.189 --> 02:00:00.840
to be addressed and taken care of and not try to put

02:00:00.840 --> 02:00:04.609
something on arbitrarily that then solid waste doesn't work

02:00:04.609 --> 02:00:04.840
.

02:00:04.840 --> 02:00:07.859
So I think that's one of the things that it has to come

02:00:07.859 --> 02:00:11.159
back possibly and just put it in your good hands that it's

02:00:11.159 --> 02:00:14.399
a concern has been noted and we need to address it and and

02:00:14.399 --> 02:00:17.810
handling staff level and all the places where that would

02:00:17.810 --> 02:00:18.840
take place.

02:00:18.840 --> 02:00:22.840
It can be handled at staff level or the S.U.P. Yes sir.

02:00:22.840 --> 02:00:24.840
Okay.

02:00:24.840 --> 02:00:28.899
So that the condition could be a certain number of feet

02:00:28.899 --> 02:00:33.239
from existing residents, so that they could use that as a

02:00:33.239 --> 02:00:37.949
guideline to say if it's 30 foot easement or, you know,

02:00:37.949 --> 02:00:40.840
from existing residents that way.

02:00:40.840 --> 02:00:45.840
They've got the latitude to put it anywhere along that arc.

02:00:45.840 --> 02:00:49.770
You know where the truck would be going anyway to get in

02:00:49.770 --> 02:00:53.970
and out of the apartment complex. So by giving a minimum

02:00:53.970 --> 02:00:58.359
footage from existing residents within allow them more lee

02:00:58.359 --> 02:01:02.329
way to put it someplace and at the same time, make it go

02:01:02.329 --> 02:01:04.840
pathetic with waste management.

02:01:04.840 --> 02:01:08.720
That's the solution. If the commission wanted to structure

02:01:08.720 --> 02:01:12.079
some sort of condition in that way that that certainly

02:01:12.079 --> 02:01:15.930
could be something you could a way to approach the issue.

02:01:15.930 --> 02:01:17.840
Yes sir. Thank you.

02:01:17.840 --> 02:01:22.180
Commissioner Sanchez. Yeah, I just wanted to say, I agree

02:01:22.180 --> 02:01:26.840
with Jim basically, I hate to tie their hands.

02:01:26.840 --> 02:01:38.210
I think if we start putting all these, what do you call it,

02:01:38.210 --> 02:01:41.510
just if we start tying your hands, then we don't really

02:01:41.510 --> 02:01:44.590
know what's going on up there until you start taking

02:01:44.590 --> 02:01:48.840
measurements and figuring out, let you all figure it out.

02:01:48.840 --> 02:01:54.840
And I think that would be the best. That's the way I feel.

02:01:54.840 --> 02:01:59.369
I don't want to tie anybody's hands and then we end up with

02:01:59.369 --> 02:02:03.840
a bigger problem than we have right now.

02:02:03.840 --> 02:02:08.069
As, because you also have to, like you said, consider the

02:02:08.069 --> 02:02:10.840
tenants, how far they have to walk.

02:02:10.840 --> 02:02:14.810
There's a big, a much bigger picture than just moving a

02:02:14.810 --> 02:02:18.779
dumpster. There's a lot of other considerations which we

02:02:18.779 --> 02:02:21.840
probably haven't even discussed here today.

02:02:21.840 --> 02:02:27.319
As far as I'm concerned, I think that's just leave it up to

02:02:27.319 --> 02:02:29.840
you all to figure it out.

02:02:29.840 --> 02:02:33.840
Seeing questions at this time. Thank you, Julie.

02:02:33.840 --> 02:02:38.960
This is a public hearing. Anyone who wants to speak on this

02:02:38.960 --> 02:02:42.840
item, please come forward at this time.

02:02:42.840 --> 02:02:49.140
We have some cards that were handed in. Make sure I get the

02:02:49.140 --> 02:02:51.840
right item.

02:02:51.840 --> 02:02:58.609
We had Bernie Carr, 1717 Boy Street was opposed, mostly in

02:02:58.609 --> 02:03:01.840
regards to rainwater runoff.

02:03:01.840 --> 02:03:07.979
We also had Nancy Jordan, 805 Windsor was opposed to the

02:03:07.979 --> 02:03:10.840
request, no reason given.

02:03:10.840 --> 02:03:16.840
We have James Adams, 1518 Seminole, opposed request.

02:03:16.840 --> 02:03:23.840
Too many apartments were in it already, traffic.

02:03:23.840 --> 02:03:30.510
We have Mary Richter, 1502 Pertain Street, in favor of

02:03:30.510 --> 02:03:31.840
request.

02:03:31.840 --> 02:03:36.840
That's all the cards that we have on this item.

02:03:36.840 --> 02:03:40.100
This is a public hearing. Anyone who would like to speak on

02:03:40.100 --> 02:03:42.840
this item, please come forward at this time.

02:03:42.840 --> 02:03:46.180
Seeing none, we'll close the public hearing and open the

02:03:46.180 --> 02:03:50.409
floor for discussion or a motion in regards to, this will

02:03:50.409 --> 02:03:58.840
be the, I believe, rezone only.

02:03:58.840 --> 02:04:01.840
Commissioner Beck.

02:04:01.840 --> 02:04:06.840
Thank you, Chair. I think this would apply to rezone only.

02:04:06.840 --> 02:04:11.250
I like this development. I think it does a lot of positive

02:04:11.250 --> 02:04:16.279
things that reduces the idea of apartments being near

02:04:16.279 --> 02:04:17.840
residential settings.

02:04:17.840 --> 02:04:21.180
What I want to just bring out as a matter of public record

02:04:21.180 --> 02:04:24.149
is really for the staff, engineering on the road, the

02:04:24.149 --> 02:04:27.840
concern about Mingo Road down the road.

02:04:27.840 --> 02:04:30.710
I realize that a lot is not going to change real quick the

02:04:30.710 --> 02:04:34.359
way we'd like it. We're not going to see a four-lane Mingo

02:04:34.359 --> 02:04:35.840
Road anytime soon.

02:04:35.840 --> 02:04:39.010
But as I mentioned in the work session, there is a

02:04:39.010 --> 02:04:42.289
curvature along Mingo there that you've got a shorter

02:04:42.289 --> 02:04:46.199
visual of the means of ingress and egress for the

02:04:46.199 --> 02:04:49.840
apartments as you're heading southwest, I guess it is,

02:04:49.840 --> 02:04:51.840
towards the square.

02:04:51.840 --> 02:04:56.460
So something for the staff to consider, something cheap too

02:04:56.460 --> 02:05:00.890
, would be a flashing yellow light with a sign warning that

02:05:00.890 --> 02:05:04.949
they're approaching such an area and just serve as a

02:05:04.949 --> 02:05:05.840
caution.

02:05:05.840 --> 02:05:09.779
Another suggestion would be to provide a, I think some of

02:05:09.779 --> 02:05:13.560
them call it an accelerator lane, I call it an emerging

02:05:13.560 --> 02:05:17.529
lane where when people pull out of the apartments heading

02:05:17.529 --> 02:05:21.840
again southwest towards the square, there would be a lane

02:05:21.840 --> 02:05:25.829
juxtaposed next to the existing Mingo Road where they would

02:05:25.829 --> 02:05:29.140
have time to gradually build up speed and fit in to offset

02:05:29.140 --> 02:05:32.000
the possibility of somebody barreling down Mingo Road about

02:05:32.000 --> 02:05:34.840
50, 60 mile an hour, which will happen some of the times.

02:05:34.840 --> 02:05:39.079
And creating a problem. So it's an issue that as this thing

02:05:39.079 --> 02:05:43.079
progresses and moves forward, I would like to hopefully,

02:05:43.079 --> 02:05:47.239
you know, just, you know, for the record, point out that we

02:05:47.239 --> 02:05:50.840
do have an issue with Mingo and hope that there are some

02:05:50.840 --> 02:05:53.840
ideas and plans ahead to deal with this.

02:05:53.840 --> 02:05:57.840
Thank you.

02:05:57.840 --> 02:05:59.840
Commissioner Sanchez.

02:05:59.840 --> 02:06:02.840
Make a motion.

02:06:02.840 --> 02:06:06.000
Can I make a motion at this point, you certainly. Okay, I'd

02:06:06.000 --> 02:06:12.840
like to make a motion to accept agenda item z 17 dash 0012

02:06:12.840 --> 02:06:15.840
to approve to approve it. Yes.

02:06:15.840 --> 02:06:19.840
You have any conditions for the conditions already.

02:06:19.840 --> 02:06:23.840
They automatically are included right.

02:06:23.840 --> 02:06:28.840
Any conditions.

02:06:28.840 --> 02:06:34.439
There's no conditions with this approved zoning clean as is

02:06:34.439 --> 02:06:34.840
.

02:06:34.840 --> 02:06:35.840
Okay.

02:06:35.840 --> 02:06:38.840
Commissioner Smith. I second.

02:06:38.840 --> 02:06:44.829
We have a first and a second for approval. Any further

02:06:44.829 --> 02:06:47.840
discussion.

02:06:47.840 --> 02:06:55.840
Seeing none, I'll call for a vote on board.

02:06:55.840 --> 02:07:06.840
The motion is going to pass seven zero.

02:07:06.840 --> 02:07:11.020
On to our next item. I'm going to open the public hearing

02:07:11.020 --> 02:07:15.899
for item G s 17 dash 0006 and call on Julie assumed since

02:07:15.899 --> 02:07:20.090
we've already done the presentation will just say that's

02:07:20.090 --> 02:07:24.069
the presentation and move on to anyone who would like to

02:07:24.069 --> 02:07:25.840
speak on this item.

02:07:25.840 --> 02:07:29.840
I'm going to handle that.

02:07:29.840 --> 02:07:33.130
I provided the presentation prior to so if there's any

02:07:33.130 --> 02:07:36.869
other questions I'll be happy to answer them for the SUV.

02:07:36.869 --> 02:07:39.840
Otherwise, thank you for clarifying.

02:07:39.840 --> 02:07:44.329

02:07:48.840 --> 02:07:50.840
cards on this as well.

02:07:50.840 --> 02:07:55.840
Okay, so I have one coming forward.

02:07:55.840 --> 02:08:00.550
I have the same speakers are same card submitters. Bernie

02:08:00.550 --> 02:08:04.840
car 1717 Boyd was opposed.

02:08:04.840 --> 02:08:10.840
Have

02:08:10.840 --> 02:08:17.840
James Adams 1518 seminal opposed.

02:08:17.840 --> 02:08:23.210
Mr. 15 or two pertains street in favor and same reasons

02:08:23.210 --> 02:08:27.840
given on each is what was given the previous item.

02:08:27.840 --> 02:08:31.680
And this is a public hearing anyone who would like to speak

02:08:31.680 --> 02:08:34.840
on this item please come forward this time.

02:08:34.840 --> 02:08:37.840
Seeing none of close the public hearing.

02:08:37.840 --> 02:08:42.090
Commissioner Smith. Thank you, Chair. So there's been some

02:08:42.090 --> 02:08:45.869
discussion on our consensus about making an amendment for

02:08:45.869 --> 02:08:48.840
the condition in regards to the dumpster.

02:08:48.840 --> 02:08:53.859
So, my understanding there's some that are thinking certain

02:08:53.859 --> 02:08:57.840
footage away from the single family property.

02:08:57.840 --> 02:09:02.989
There are some, just to clarify I guess what legal and what

02:09:02.989 --> 02:09:07.279
Jim has mentioned some saying, do we need to put a

02:09:07.279 --> 02:09:12.619
condition in there stating, let the city staff discuss that

02:09:12.619 --> 02:09:17.210
and then bring it back to us at plotting what is the was

02:09:17.210 --> 02:09:17.840
the discussion on that and how

02:09:17.840 --> 02:09:28.840
should we proceed there.

02:09:28.840 --> 02:09:34.710
And that was gonna be my comment is, you wouldn't have to

02:09:34.710 --> 02:09:40.390
place a condition for staff to address site plan issues, we

02:09:40.390 --> 02:09:42.840
're going to see it anyways and have a discussion.

02:09:42.840 --> 02:09:43.840
Correct.

02:09:43.840 --> 02:09:47.439
Okay, make sure it just as a point of order in the staff

02:09:47.439 --> 02:09:52.069
recommendation. There is a condition, and it talks about a

02:09:52.069 --> 02:09:56.949
full site plan submittals will be required so that might be

02:09:56.949 --> 02:10:00.920
something that would make the commission feel well that

02:10:00.920 --> 02:10:02.840
staff has to review that.

02:10:02.840 --> 02:10:04.840
So, thank you, Chair.

02:10:04.840 --> 02:10:05.840
Commissioner back.

02:10:05.840 --> 02:10:09.220
Thank you, Chair, I just want to thank everybody came down

02:10:09.220 --> 02:10:12.149
tonight speak officially the residents in the area

02:10:12.149 --> 02:10:16.930
appreciate your input. And I realized that there were more

02:10:16.930 --> 02:10:19.819
pose and there were for it and the fact that we so far have

02:10:19.819 --> 02:10:23.840
voted to approve the zone change I want you to take heart

02:10:23.840 --> 02:10:23.840
in the

02:10:23.840 --> 02:10:27.100
fact that we do so with the idea in mind that this, this

02:10:27.100 --> 02:10:30.479
particular development is probably going to be the most

02:10:30.479 --> 02:10:33.869
amenable to that area I think it's standpointed out that

02:10:33.869 --> 02:10:37.250
track the land is not going to be so to developers going to

02:10:37.250 --> 02:10:39.840
build single family home so these apartments,

02:10:39.840 --> 02:10:43.130
the way they're designed with the preserving trees, the set

02:10:43.130 --> 02:10:46.439
backs and everything, I think we're going to meet your needs

02:10:46.439 --> 02:10:49.630
not going to devalue property, and we're going to watch it

02:10:49.630 --> 02:10:52.630
closely as it moves forward to this thing does have to go

02:10:52.630 --> 02:10:54.840
into city council be approved so this is

02:10:54.840 --> 02:10:56.840
not the last step.

02:10:56.840 --> 02:11:00.199
But if it gets passed into, then when it when they bring it

02:11:00.199 --> 02:11:03.630
back to us for site plan. That's when we'll start scrutin

02:11:03.630 --> 02:11:07.060
izing things like the dumpster and everything we have your

02:11:07.060 --> 02:11:10.430
concerns in mind, and we'll move this thing forward with

02:11:10.430 --> 02:11:10.840
those considerations

02:11:10.840 --> 02:11:14.729
in mind. So, with that, somebody's already going to make a

02:11:14.729 --> 02:11:15.840
motion to move.

02:11:15.840 --> 02:11:17.840
Thank you.

02:11:17.840 --> 02:11:18.840
Commissioner Smith.

02:11:18.840 --> 02:11:25.979
Make a motion to approve as as 17 dash six, accepting the

02:11:25.979 --> 02:11:28.840
city staffs conditions.

02:11:28.840 --> 02:11:31.829
Commissioner Roselle. Thank you, Chair. I am going to

02:11:31.829 --> 02:11:35.729
second this but I also wanted to agree with Commissioner Be

02:11:35.729 --> 02:11:39.930
cks points. It's, it's invaluable for citizens come down and

02:11:39.930 --> 02:11:43.829
fill out cards and talk and be here late nights with us and

02:11:43.829 --> 02:11:45.840
so I thank you for coming out.

02:11:45.840 --> 02:11:48.699
We did receive a letter from Marie Butler I don't think she

02:11:48.699 --> 02:11:51.680
's here tonight, but we did receive her letter, all of us

02:11:51.680 --> 02:11:54.529
did and take that consideration as well and so hopefully

02:11:54.529 --> 02:11:57.840
the commission has been entirely thoughtful on this I think

02:11:57.840 --> 02:11:59.840
it is a good project.

02:11:59.840 --> 02:12:03.350
It is like Commissioner Beck said the most amenable, and it

02:12:03.350 --> 02:12:06.720
seems as though from from the presentations tonight that

02:12:06.720 --> 02:12:10.020
the developer tried more than than others to reach out to

02:12:10.020 --> 02:12:13.619
citizens with neighborhood meetings and actually take that

02:12:13.619 --> 02:12:16.420
feedback and change their design which I think is is

02:12:16.420 --> 02:12:16.840
unusual and appreciated

02:12:16.840 --> 02:12:20.319
so with that I'm going to second this and hope the project

02:12:20.319 --> 02:12:22.840
is a great fit for that neighborhood.

02:12:22.840 --> 02:12:27.140
Okay. We have a first and a second for approval with the

02:12:27.140 --> 02:12:30.840
staff condition attached to that approval.

02:12:30.840 --> 02:12:31.840
Commissioner Ellis.

02:12:31.840 --> 02:12:33.840
Thank you, Chair.

02:12:33.840 --> 02:12:36.420
Just just wanted to basically get our record to say I do

02:12:36.420 --> 02:12:38.930
support this I think it makes sense for this particular

02:12:38.930 --> 02:12:39.840
track of land.

02:12:39.840 --> 02:12:43.010
I do appreciate the developer having the neighborhood

02:12:43.010 --> 02:12:45.979
meetings the two that you've had already and my hope is

02:12:45.979 --> 02:12:49.279
that as the project moves forward, that you continue the

02:12:49.279 --> 02:12:52.000
discussion with the community I think that that is

02:12:52.000 --> 02:12:56.840
invaluable to to us as a city to continue that so thank you

02:12:56.840 --> 02:12:58.840
.

02:12:58.840 --> 02:13:02.260
I'm like a comment, I'm going to support this as well and I

02:13:02.260 --> 02:13:05.699
know there's some concerns about traffic and based on the

02:13:05.699 --> 02:13:08.930
traffic criteria manual that we've talked about this

02:13:08.930 --> 02:13:11.920
evening. I think we're less than a third of what is even

02:13:11.920 --> 02:13:17.380
the trigger for TIA so certainly my opinion, I doubt there

02:13:17.380 --> 02:13:19.840
'll be any improvements made out of me go because of that,

02:13:19.840 --> 02:13:23.359
it doesn't even, even third of what even would be required

02:13:23.359 --> 02:13:26.659
to even study the area so my assumption is that we vote on

02:13:26.659 --> 02:13:29.939
this is the mingo will stay the way it is based on the size

02:13:29.939 --> 02:13:34.090
of the complex because it's, although for you all as a

02:13:34.090 --> 02:13:36.979
neighborhood is a large complex from what's been there in

02:13:36.979 --> 02:13:41.359
comparison to 200 or 300 or greater size unit that may come

02:13:41.359 --> 02:13:45.840
before us it is a fairly small compact multifamily site,

02:13:45.840 --> 02:13:49.079
two story versus three or four even taller on some of the

02:13:49.079 --> 02:13:52.239
other ones that do come before us so I know it is going to

02:13:52.239 --> 02:13:55.840
be different than what you're accustomed to looking at, but

02:13:55.840 --> 02:13:59.079
it is fairly small in size into comparison to a lot of the

02:13:59.079 --> 02:14:02.890
units that are complexes that come before us so with that I

02:14:02.890 --> 02:14:05.840
'm going to support the motion.

02:14:05.840 --> 02:14:16.329
Commissioner Sanchez. Yeah, I would like to say, I'm also

02:14:16.329 --> 02:14:17.159
going to support it, and I appreciate what the builders

02:14:17.159 --> 02:14:18.000
doing the meetings he's had. I think that that goes a long

02:14:18.000 --> 02:14:18.840
way with with the neighbors.

02:14:18.840 --> 02:14:24.840
And so I just want to say that I'm going to support it.

02:14:24.840 --> 02:14:27.840
Any other comments.

02:14:27.840 --> 02:14:34.789
Okay, we have a first and a second for approval with staff

02:14:34.789 --> 02:14:39.840
condition and call for a vote on the board.

02:14:39.840 --> 02:14:42.840
Motion is going to carry seven to zero.

02:14:42.840 --> 02:14:45.840
Thank you all for coming out this evening.

02:14:45.840 --> 02:14:53.279
That will move us to our final item on our agenda tonight,

02:14:53.279 --> 02:14:55.840
our project matrix.

02:14:55.840 --> 02:14:57.840
Commissioner Roselle.

02:14:57.840 --> 02:15:01.880
Thank you, Chair. Unfortunately, I was not at last meeting

02:15:01.880 --> 02:15:05.899
and my item here coordinate with rezoning committee to

02:15:05.899 --> 02:15:08.840
align future land use to zoning map.

02:15:08.840 --> 02:15:12.840
It says see memo dated November 29.

02:15:12.840 --> 02:15:14.939
Is there a way I can get that memo is that in the agenda

02:15:14.939 --> 02:15:15.840
from last time or.

02:15:15.840 --> 02:15:19.000
Absolutely, we'll make sure it's email to you tomorrow.

02:15:19.000 --> 02:15:22.119
Okay, perfect. The only other thing I had is, I had an item

02:15:22.119 --> 02:15:25.100
, a long time ago and it's actually still here it's second

02:15:25.100 --> 02:15:26.840
to the last but sidewalks.

02:15:26.840 --> 02:15:31.470
And I kind of want to follow up on. There are some streets

02:15:31.470 --> 02:15:35.680
in town that needs sidewalks. What is the per se I would

02:15:35.680 --> 02:15:39.930
like to know what the procedure is I'm thinking

02:15:39.930 --> 02:15:41.840
specifically of scripture.

02:15:41.840 --> 02:15:44.520
There's a lot of traffic there from the apartment complex

02:15:44.520 --> 02:15:47.130
and one about to go in and there's no sidewalk. It seems

02:15:47.130 --> 02:15:50.270
like dangerous. I just didn't know the process of the city

02:15:50.270 --> 02:15:51.840
looking proactively.

02:15:51.840 --> 02:15:54.819
If there's not a capital improvement for that road, if

02:15:54.819 --> 02:15:57.850
there is other opportunities to seek adding some safety

02:15:57.850 --> 02:16:01.010
precautions to roadways, if there's a way I could get some

02:16:01.010 --> 02:16:03.840
more information about that, I'd be really helpful.

02:16:03.840 --> 02:16:06.699
What I'll do is for the for the next meeting. I'll prepare

02:16:06.699 --> 02:16:09.640
a memo for you both on addressing scripture and then just

02:16:09.640 --> 02:16:13.739
overall how sidewalks are required. That'd be great. Thank

02:16:13.739 --> 02:16:14.840
you.

02:16:14.840 --> 02:16:17.840
Commissioner back. Thank you, Chair.

02:16:17.840 --> 02:16:21.569
Something that I brought up way back. I don't even think it

02:16:21.569 --> 02:16:25.060
's on the matrix anymore but I think it got. It was a good

02:16:25.060 --> 02:16:28.560
idea at the time and then it became taboo but any chance of

02:16:28.560 --> 02:16:32.459
addressing eliminating the parking minimums for commercial

02:16:32.459 --> 02:16:33.840
developments.

02:16:33.840 --> 02:16:37.469
Plus is to that for both the developer and citizens and

02:16:37.469 --> 02:16:41.479
didn't not sure why. All of a sudden, it took on the boogie

02:16:41.479 --> 02:16:45.370
man row but leaving it up to the developer to determine how

02:16:45.370 --> 02:16:48.940
many parking places they need instead of requiring a

02:16:48.940 --> 02:16:52.620
minimum would open up a lot of space and some of these

02:16:52.620 --> 02:16:56.629
larger developments where we could put some green spaces or

02:16:56.629 --> 02:16:59.409
some smaller commercial interest a little kiosk stuff like

02:16:59.409 --> 02:16:59.840
that.

02:16:59.840 --> 02:17:03.309
Is there a chance of getting that put back on the matrix

02:17:03.309 --> 02:17:04.840
for consideration.

02:17:04.840 --> 02:17:09.620
As a matter of fact, yeah. I mean, yes, we're looking there

02:17:09.620 --> 02:17:13.639
there was a commission request where we're currently

02:17:13.639 --> 02:17:16.840
working on a memo with respect to all parking.

02:17:16.840 --> 02:17:20.469
I think that's going to be the single again it's multifac

02:17:20.469 --> 02:17:24.100
eted because they're so it's it's really I was called the

02:17:24.100 --> 02:17:27.690
silent regulator because you can't really do anything

02:17:27.690 --> 02:17:29.840
unless you have parking.

02:17:29.840 --> 02:17:33.799
Right. And you almost hold people hostage with what they

02:17:33.799 --> 02:17:37.600
can do even really better their property. And so we're

02:17:37.600 --> 02:17:41.760
looking at that now and sort of everything related to that.

02:17:41.760 --> 02:17:45.329
And then I think you'll see that as part of the as part of

02:17:45.329 --> 02:17:46.840
the DDC update.

02:17:46.840 --> 02:17:50.719
Is like the big development areas where you get the big box

02:17:50.719 --> 02:17:54.620
stores and raise a ranch shows a bunch of this where you've

02:17:54.620 --> 02:17:58.149
got all this parking and most of the time that you know

02:17:58.149 --> 02:18:01.940
there's a large percentage is just not you may have a

02:18:01.940 --> 02:18:05.989
Christmas and the special days but that's just a lot of

02:18:05.989 --> 02:18:06.840
wasted space.

02:18:06.840 --> 02:18:10.010
And that's a cost to the developer to that you know

02:18:10.010 --> 02:18:13.239
surprisingly I'd be, you know, see eliminated I know most

02:18:13.239 --> 02:18:16.629
of the time I'm tagging on calls for developers but this is

02:18:16.629 --> 02:18:19.950
one that could be eliminated so good I'm glad it's back on

02:18:19.950 --> 02:18:22.840
and look forward to hearing what you have to say about it.

02:18:22.840 --> 02:18:25.120
Thank you. I'm going to tag on before I recognize

02:18:25.120 --> 02:18:29.049
commissioners. Will that parking memo also address maximums

02:18:29.049 --> 02:18:32.030
as well. It's bringing up that the whole discussion is to

02:18:32.030 --> 02:18:34.840
whether whether or not part we should really still consider

02:18:34.840 --> 02:18:35.840
parking maximums.

02:18:35.840 --> 02:18:38.700
Or whether that should be you know most of the time you see

02:18:38.700 --> 02:18:41.729
it for really a specific at least what I'm familiar with a

02:18:41.729 --> 02:18:45.309
specific area. So whether or not we want to discourage

02:18:45.309 --> 02:18:48.950
discourage car vehicular traffic and promote more of a

02:18:48.950 --> 02:18:53.200
pedestrian environment around around the campus or within

02:18:53.200 --> 02:18:55.829
downtown, then yes maybe it makes sense to put parking

02:18:55.829 --> 02:19:00.840
maximums in, but to do it citywide, maybe not.

02:19:00.840 --> 02:19:05.840
Commissioner Sanchez.

02:19:05.840 --> 02:19:13.340
I also wanted to address the parking. You know there seems

02:19:13.340 --> 02:19:20.540
like there's a lot of right around the downtown area there

02:19:20.540 --> 02:19:27.590
seems to be a lot of new apartments in those streets, you

02:19:27.590 --> 02:19:31.840
just already can get through.

02:19:31.840 --> 02:19:35.840
I'm sorry.

02:19:35.840 --> 02:19:39.420
Once it gets finalized I'll make sure that it's it's sent

02:19:39.420 --> 02:19:42.479
to the board or the commission I'm sorry to look at

02:19:42.479 --> 02:19:46.219
engineering is is in the process of updating their, their

02:19:46.219 --> 02:19:48.840
transportation criteria manual.

02:19:48.840 --> 02:19:51.979
And then also looking at just sort of differently looking

02:19:51.979 --> 02:19:53.799
at context sensitive corridors is kind of a term that's

02:19:53.799 --> 02:20:02.840
used where it may incorporate a lot of different things.

02:20:02.840 --> 02:20:19.159
And so that that's sort of in the works now. But as it's

02:20:19.159 --> 02:20:20.940
getting finalized I'll make sure that it's that everyone

02:20:20.940 --> 02:20:21.840
here has a copy of that.

02:20:21.840 --> 02:20:22.840
Commissioner Smith.

02:20:22.840 --> 02:20:23.049
Thank you chair. You just mentioned it. I think feel like

02:20:23.049 --> 02:20:23.250
the last four or five commission meetings we've had

02:20:23.250 --> 02:20:23.469
something bike related has come up anytime there's any type

02:20:23.469 --> 02:20:23.700
of multifamily of budding any type of single family, or any

02:20:23.700 --> 02:20:23.920
type of multifamily development at all, bikes are brought

02:20:23.920 --> 02:20:24.129
up, we keep talking and hearing city staff talk about the

02:20:24.129 --> 02:20:24.340
bike mobility plan is there any way we don't necessarily

02:20:24.340 --> 02:20:24.840
have a presentation on it, but something just kind of

02:20:24.840 --> 02:20:45.850
as an addendum a memo some of it we can we can add it to

02:20:45.850 --> 02:20:52.840
the city plan.

02:20:52.840 --> 02:20:55.680
Just as an addendum a memo some of it we can we can include

02:20:55.680 --> 02:20:58.559
the next backup we keep on file so we can just see what the

02:20:58.559 --> 02:21:01.549
city's bike mobility plan is for the future so we just have

02:21:01.549 --> 02:21:03.840
it to reference for future projects.

02:21:03.840 --> 02:21:07.840
I will I will make sure that it again that's included with.

02:21:07.840 --> 02:21:10.110
I'll just, I'll do another it'll probably just be a simple

02:21:10.110 --> 02:21:12.350
little cover memo but I'll make sure everybody everybody

02:21:12.350 --> 02:21:14.549
has that prior to the next meeting just just so you have it

02:21:14.549 --> 02:21:14.840
.

02:21:14.840 --> 02:21:16.840
Yeah, thank you.

02:21:16.840 --> 02:21:22.840
I just wanted to add one as well.

02:21:22.840 --> 02:21:47.879
There's several months about traffic with projects. And I

02:21:47.879 --> 02:21:48.389
think it'd probably be helpful for all of us as commission

02:21:48.389 --> 02:21:48.909
ers maybe in work session to have some background from staff

02:21:48.909 --> 02:21:49.450
about at what point is it a development's responsibility to

02:21:49.450 --> 02:21:49.840
do improvements.

02:21:49.840 --> 02:21:52.420
A lot of these questions were still going to have to deal

02:21:52.420 --> 02:21:54.500
with a lot of that with the public but I think as a

02:21:54.500 --> 02:21:56.840
commission it would help us all understand.

02:21:56.840 --> 02:22:00.729
Well at this point, the developer has to do something

02:22:00.729 --> 02:22:04.159
otherwise. This is city's responsibility and they are the

02:22:04.159 --> 02:22:06.889
ones that take care of it it's not even a developer issue

02:22:06.889 --> 02:22:09.559
that's even to be considered for our discussion time I

02:22:09.559 --> 02:22:12.840
think it would probably save our commission

02:22:12.840 --> 02:22:16.610
to have that background long term. Certainly I will, I will

02:22:16.610 --> 02:22:19.959
get together with with with us this is the city engineer

02:22:19.959 --> 02:22:22.979
and try to come up with that, come up with a sort of a

02:22:22.979 --> 02:22:26.909
presentation, there's a, there's been a lot of things in a

02:22:26.909 --> 02:22:28.840
lot of changes over the last couple

02:22:28.840 --> 02:22:32.010
of weeks and one of them is really just that sort of

02:22:32.010 --> 02:22:35.489
bringing all of this together. I mean we have a mobility

02:22:35.489 --> 02:22:38.909
plan we have a bike plan and you know what are what are the

02:22:38.909 --> 02:22:42.840
current capacities on the road and what's going to trigger

02:22:42.840 --> 02:22:43.840
where it's going to affect the level of service

02:22:43.840 --> 02:22:46.819
so we're really sort of looking at this more a little bit

02:22:46.819 --> 02:22:49.819
more comprehensively so we're not up here guessing and

02:22:49.819 --> 02:22:52.709
trying to figure out what what's best we we have we should

02:22:52.709 --> 02:22:55.920
know and have the data to support it and so that's where we

02:22:55.920 --> 02:22:59.840
're working now to sort of bring all that stuff together.

02:22:59.840 --> 02:23:03.840
Anybody else.

02:23:03.840 --> 02:23:15.290
At 810 I will close our meeting this evening. Thank you all

02:23:15.290 --> 02:23:18.840
for coming out.
