Because not every board has the same eligibility 170 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:06,980 criteria, the verification process varies depending on the applicable city ordinance or 171 00:13:06,980 --> 00:13:13,380 Missouri statute governing that board. Verification may include residency, voter registration, 172 00:13:14,060 --> 00:13:18,740 taxpayer status, professional licensure, or other board specific qualifications. 173 00:13:18,740 --> 00:13:24,440 When there is a question regarding eligibility or interpretation of our requirement, I consult 174 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,600 with the legal department before moving forward. 175 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:33,040 Council members have asked how applicants are vetted before appointments come before Council. 176 00:13:33,740 --> 00:13:38,260 In response to those questions, I reviewed the appointment process to identify ways to better 177 00:13:38,260 --> 00:13:41,480 communicate the information provided with appointment recommendations. 178 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:50,180 As a result, I have developed an appointment qualification verification form that will serve 179 00:13:50,180 --> 00:13:53,260 as the cover sheet for every appointment presented to Council. 180 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,120 The form documents, the applicable ordinance requirements, 181 00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:59,360 how those qualifications were verified, 182 00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:02,160 and the source is used during the review process. 183 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,360 It provides a consistent record supporting each appointment 184 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,320 and gives Council a concise summary 185 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,360 of the applicant's eligibility before considering the appointment. 186 00:14:11,140 --> 00:14:14,360 Moving forward, this formal accompany every appointment packet 187 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,220 presented to Council for consideration. 188 00:14:17,540 --> 00:14:19,500 In addition, following questions raised 189 00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:24,000 At the last Council meeting regarding the vetting process, I applied the same verification 190 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,880 process to every current member serving on the city's boards and commissions. 191 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:34,440 Because a standardized verification process had not previously been documented, I completed 192 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:39,420 a comprehensive review to verify and document each member's eligibility under the applicable 193 00:14:39,420 --> 00:14:40,800 governing requirements. 194 00:14:41,740 --> 00:14:47,100 The results were compiled into an internal verification spreadsheet and provided to administration 195 00:14:47,100 --> 00:14:52,900 an illegal department for additional review. Based on the information reviewed, the current members 196 00:14:52,900 --> 00:14:57,820 meet the eligibility requirements for the seats they currently hold. Because the spreadsheet 197 00:14:57,820 --> 00:14:59,980 contains personal information, it was not... 198 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,000 Not included in the council packet. However, it is available to any council member upon request. 199 00:15:07,740 --> 00:15:16,320 After verification, qualified applicants are presented to the mayor for consideration. Following the mayor's interviews and selections, 200 00:15:17,060 --> 00:15:26,500 a complete appointment packet is prepared for council, which will move forward include the appointment memo, application, resume and qualification, 201 00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:32,620 verification form to be sent to Council no less than seven days before the appointment is proposed 202 00:15:32,620 --> 00:15:37,920 at a city council meeting. Upon approval, the candidate is introduced to the staff liaison 203 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:43,360 for the board, sent their certification of appointment, and once signed and attested the process 204 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:49,380 is complete. While the application and vetting process has been improved, the administration of 205 00:15:49,380 --> 00:15:54,640 boards and commissions remains largely a manual process. Appointment tracking, attendance, 206 00:15:54,640 --> 00:16:00,520 monitoring records management and historical research currently rely on multiple spreadsheets, 207 00:16:00,620 --> 00:16:06,660 files, emails and paper records. And since recently an attendants history question has been 208 00:16:06,660 --> 00:16:11,760 raised, I wanted to very quickly share something that we have been working on that I think will 209 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:17,700 be a massive improvement. Over the past couple of months, I've been working with our IT department 210 00:16:17,700 --> 00:16:23,020 to develop a long-term solution that better supports the city's needs. After evaluating 211 00:16:23,020 --> 00:16:27,580 available options. We determine that no existing system fully met are requirements. 212 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,940 As a result, we're developing a customized SharePoint-based records management system 213 00:16:32,940 --> 00:16:35,520 designed specifically for the city's boards and commissions. 214 00:16:37,140 --> 00:16:42,360 The system is intended to serve three primary functions. First, it will provide staff 215 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:48,260 liaison with a centralized workspace to record meeting attendance, access member contact information, 216 00:16:48,260 --> 00:16:53,560 and maintain board records in a single location, reducing reliance on emails and multiple 217 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:54,440 file locations. 218 00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,060 Second, it will provide an executive dashboard for the mayor's office, administration, 219 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:05,060 and the legal department, displaying current vacancies, appointments, approaching expiration, 220 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:12,260 members with consecutive absences, and other key information requiring administrative action. 221 00:17:12,260 --> 00:17:19,120 The goal is to move from a reactive manual process to one that provides timely information, 222 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:25,500 improves administrative efficiency, and supports more proactive management of the city's boards and commissions. 223 00:17:27,780 --> 00:17:31,660 The third function is to create a centralized record for every board and commission. 224 00:17:32,180 --> 00:17:35,860 Instead of searching through multiple files, emails, spreadsheets, et cetera, 225 00:17:35,860 --> 00:17:40,820 staff will be able to access everything related to a board, a member, or an apartment, 226 00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:46,220 an appointment from one location. While the system is still under development, we're currently 227 00:17:46,220 --> 00:17:51,220 building the historical database, developing the dashboard and automation tools and exploring 228 00:17:51,220 --> 00:17:55,040 opportunities to coordinate records management with the city clerk's office. 229 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:00,240 Up to this point, 230 00:18:00,340 --> 00:18:04,420 the administration of the city's boards and commissions has largely been manual relying 231 00:18:04,420 --> 00:18:09,020 on institutional knowledge and the transfer of information from one staff member to the next. 232 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:15,460 Without a documented administrative framework, practices are varied over time, resulting in some 233 00:18:15,460 --> 00:18:21,060 inconsistencies and record keeping and administrative procedures. To address that, I'm developing 234 00:18:21,060 --> 00:18:25,800 a comprehensive, standard operating procedure in collaboration with administration and the legal 235 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:33,080 department. The SOP is based on the city's ordinances applicable policies and the administrative 236 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:38,420 practices established through this project. The goal is to document the current processes, 237 00:18:39,980 --> 00:18:45,620 and provide future staff with a reliable road map that can be adapted as the city's needs evolve. 238 00:18:46,260 --> 00:18:55,520 Rather than starting from the ground up, future administrations and staff will have a solid foundation to build upon while retaining the flexibility to refine the processes as ACFIT. 239 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:04,320 Ultimately, these improvements are intended to protect the integrity of the appointment process, provide better information for the Council's decision-making, 240 00:19:04,900 --> 00:19:10,220 reduce administrative workload and preserve the city's institutional knowledge for years to come. 241 00:19:12,250 --> 00:19:13,230 Any questions? 242 00:19:15,810 --> 00:19:16,250 Shrikaya? 243 00:19:16,370 --> 00:19:17,870 I had your light on. Did you have a question? 244 00:19:18,370 --> 00:19:19,430 No, that was for council. 245 00:19:20,930 --> 00:19:21,990 Mark, that was for council. 246 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:24,980 Any questions? 247 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:26,360 Mr. Ratchford. 248 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,400 Ms. Mills, thanks very much for your presentation. 249 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,380 Well done. I think that's definitely on the right path. 250 00:19:31,540 --> 00:19:34,240 So thanks for telling us how you're putting that together. 251 00:19:34,460 --> 00:19:34,900 Thank you. 252 00:19:37,890 --> 00:19:38,230 Thank you. 253 00:19:38,270 --> 00:19:38,490 Thank you very much. 254 00:19:38,870 --> 00:19:39,250 Thank you. 255 00:19:40,270 --> 00:19:45,790 continue my report. At the request of Councilman Chris Kyle, I have scheduled an Eden Village 256 00:19:45,790 --> 00:19:52,090 Town Hall at the Founder Yard Center at 6 p.m. on Thursday, August 26. The Councilman 257 00:19:52,090 --> 00:19:56,850 wants to present the Eden Village concept to his warred residence and allow them to share 258 00:19:56,850 --> 00:20:01,070 their input. Mr. Nage Slider of Eden Village has agreed to again come to St. Charles 259 00:20:01,070 --> 00:20:07,370 for the meeting. All Council members are welcome to attend. Next in the spirit of inclusion, 260 00:20:07,370 --> 00:20:13,790 And I want to inform the council of my efforts to investigate ADUs, accessory dwelling units. 261 00:20:14,590 --> 00:20:19,470 These small independent units are on the same land as a single family home either as units 262 00:20:19,470 --> 00:20:22,570 attached to or attached from the main property. 263 00:20:23,290 --> 00:20:26,910 The phone, they function independently and have their own kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping 264 00:20:26,910 --> 00:20:27,470 areas. 265 00:20:28,090 --> 00:20:32,190 Although they are separate units, they are considered part of the larger parcel, meaning 266 00:20:32,190 --> 00:20:33,790 they cannot be sold separate of it. 267 00:20:33,790 --> 00:20:38,970 This concept has been gaining popularity because it allows for more efficient use of space 268 00:20:38,970 --> 00:20:42,850 provides cost-effective housing opportunities to aging parents 269 00:20:42,850 --> 00:20:49,770 Care givers are even children returning home. They also address the affordable housing shortages and affordability gaps 270 00:20:49,770 --> 00:20:58,990 They can also increase property values and provide alternative income. My research is just started and I intend to add this to the new community services persons purview 271 00:21:01,530 --> 00:21:06,710 On another subject I have been approached by our NS1 Irish sister city group about their desire 272 00:21:06,710 --> 00:21:11,890 to erect a replica of the ancient cross of Donagh, somewhere in the city. 273 00:21:12,550 --> 00:21:16,930 It was mentioned that in conjunction with the Maybomb monument, maybe the sister cities 274 00:21:16,930 --> 00:21:21,990 could have a section of front to the park to display the Maybomb, the Donagh cross and 275 00:21:21,990 --> 00:21:25,870 a French and eventually Spanish monument, I have mentioned this to Parks Director, 276 00:21:25,870 --> 00:21:28,010 merely Britain for further consideration. 277 00:21:29,190 --> 00:21:31,190 I'm eating with Boeing again regarding their involvement 278 00:21:31,190 --> 00:21:32,750 with the potential Space Museum 279 00:21:32,750 --> 00:21:34,730 and Grissam Center moving to St. Charles. 280 00:21:35,350 --> 00:21:37,550 They've expressed their interest in shared artifacts, 281 00:21:38,170 --> 00:21:40,130 STEM programs, and possible funding. 282 00:21:40,750 --> 00:21:42,430 I'm working with staff for museum space 283 00:21:42,430 --> 00:21:43,610 and possible layouts. 284 00:21:44,110 --> 00:21:45,770 Staff is reaching out to vendor firms 285 00:21:45,770 --> 00:21:47,950 to do a feasibility study of the project. 286 00:21:48,250 --> 00:21:50,030 There has been considerable media interest 287 00:21:50,030 --> 00:21:51,250 and coverage, too. 288 00:21:52,230 --> 00:21:54,370 The Steamboat Arabia owners have contacted me 289 00:21:54,370 --> 00:21:59,930 reference to their eminent Kansas City Least Termination and St. Charles interest in having the museum here. 290 00:22:00,570 --> 00:22:09,110 As you know, I have a keen interest in bringing the museum to St. Charles. The ship's captain, who is the owner, is buried in St. Charles and still has legacy relatives here. 291 00:22:09,650 --> 00:22:14,750 I believe the Arabia has a lot of shelf life left and could be a steady tourist revenue contributor. 292 00:22:15,790 --> 00:22:20,930 You may question my strong desire to acquire these historical entities to St. Charles. Let me share this. 293 00:22:20,930 --> 00:22:26,410 We have gone from three or four festivals over to over 552 per year. 294 00:22:26,830 --> 00:22:29,970 They are primarily one to three day events to generate a spike in. 295 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:59,980 I'm interested in fixed tourist attractions. You're on attractions that draw consistent crowds over the course of the year. Attractions that add to our festival revenue, plus the revenue of longer stays. Attractions that draw from a radius of 100 plus miles with the attendant increase in per person revenue of over 500%. It is said that the average date represents about a hundred dollars per person, and the person from over 100 miles that stays longer spent between two years. 296 00:22:59,980 --> 00:23:05,040 $200 and $1,000 per person, which is an substantial increase in revenue. 297 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,500 These attractions often come with an upfront investment, but have a demonstrated history 298 00:23:09,500 --> 00:23:10,840 of long-term rewards. 299 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:17,540 Wordwalks, I provided a date and start scheduled to the council, actual starting locations 300 00:23:17,540 --> 00:23:21,960 and routes will be determined by input from residents up to the actual date. 301 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,160 Word 1 went well and gave me a close look at elements of the word that I was not familiar 302 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:26,620 with. 303 00:23:26,620 --> 00:23:30,060 It was attended by three citizens and ran approximately two miles. 304 00:23:30,780 --> 00:23:34,700 Or 10 will be at 8 a.m. on Monday, August 10th, starting in McNair Park, 305 00:23:35,120 --> 00:23:39,440 it will be approximately 2.5 miles. Again, all council members are willing to join in. 306 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:45,520 At the suggestion of councilman Google, I will be adding a Council Carter page to the STC now magazine. 307 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:50,220 It will replace the photo information page currently on the outside back of the magazine, 308 00:23:51,120 --> 00:23:52,780 which will now be used for event promotion. 309 00:23:52,780 --> 00:23:58,360 I'm reviewing the structure and layout with communications director Jamie Null and advise you of that outcome. 310 00:23:58,740 --> 00:23:59,040 Thank you. 311 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:00,100 That completes my report. 312 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,260 Questions from Mayor? 313 00:24:06,180 --> 00:24:06,940 Thank you, Mayor. 314 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,460 Announcements from Council members. 315 00:24:15,670 --> 00:24:16,110 Mr. Kyle. 316 00:24:16,470 --> 00:24:21,950 Yeah, a few things going on and this month at Ward 1, I believe this Saturday is the corn festival, 317 00:24:22,210 --> 00:24:28,670 which is at the farmer's market down on North Main Street that evening will have hot summer 318 00:24:28,670 --> 00:24:34,590 in French town, noted it will be moved to the further end of French 319 00:24:34,590 --> 00:24:37,990 on closer to the roundabout.

So we've always kind of taken some time to think through like what could be a lightweight 478 00:34:50,410 --> 00:34:56,090 thing that could use that space at a little life to the neighborhood. We've never like put anything 479 00:34:56,090 --> 00:34:59,870 forward, you know, we kind of waited to see if anybody would come to us with produce stands 480 00:34:59,870 --> 00:35:04,310 that used to be there with Falkaro's or something different, but that never came, but 481 00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:08,550 someone like Tammy and a few other folks have approached us looking to see if they could use 482 00:35:08,550 --> 00:35:13,570 this space for something that they do. And they're existing business owners in the neighborhood too, 483 00:35:13,570 --> 00:35:17,710 so they kind of know what they're doing, but I'll let her kind of answer to some of those questions 484 00:35:17,710 --> 00:35:22,510 about her own business. Well, thanks a lot. I appreciate it. Yeah. Thank you, guys. 485 00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:25,600 Mayor Board, Mayor. 486 00:35:26,740 --> 00:35:27,500 Thank you. 487 00:35:27,540 --> 00:35:33,300 I was the dissenting vote at P&Z on the food trucks, and I have no objection to this 488 00:35:34,740 --> 00:35:36,980 gentleman's proposal and being passed on that. 489 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:41,240 But what I want to caution the council on is, I have a very active economic development 490 00:35:41,240 --> 00:35:45,420 department that is out trying to bring restaurants and other businesses as a thing 491 00:35:45,420 --> 00:35:45,840 Charles. 492 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,860 It's pretty difficult to talk somebody into spending a million dollars on a building to open 493 00:35:50,860 --> 00:35:55,400 restaurant and man it with the kind of staffs they have to. If there's a food truck next door 494 00:35:55,400 --> 00:36:01,520 and I'm seeing this type of business proliferate to the point where it has become somewhat of a 495 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:07,980 concern. I mean like I said I can't get somebody to do bricks and mortar and then have food trucks 496 00:36:07,980 --> 00:36:13,460 all around them. So I just hope you consider that in your future considerations of food trucks. Thank you. 497 00:36:16,020 --> 00:36:16,780 Any further questions? 498 00:36:19,420 --> 00:36:22,820 Any speaker cards? I do have one speaker card for Tammy Bota. She's here 499 00:36:22,820 --> 00:36:26,660 representing Deeter's frozen custard and speaking in favor of this application? 500 00:36:29,630 --> 00:36:36,930 Hi there. My name is Tammy Boda. I'm super excited for the opportunity to possibly have 501 00:36:36,930 --> 00:36:43,950 a food truck over there. We did have a brick and mortar business for several years and the 502 00:36:43,950 --> 00:36:49,470 landlord was ready to sell the building and all tenants had to leave. So that was a bummer. 503 00:36:49,470 --> 00:36:54,130 we took some time to think about maybe going to a different brick and mortar, something like 504 00:36:54,130 --> 00:37:01,090 that, nothing quite fit, and then after talking to Greg and getting a food truck, I would 505 00:37:01,090 --> 00:37:06,650 love to have it. I mean, it's within five minutes for my home. We've been shopping at the B for 506 00:37:06,650 --> 00:37:14,530 years and years, so it feels like home already, so it would be super exciting to serve the community 507 00:37:14,530 --> 00:37:20,270 in a way, like so much closer to home, but also in a way that maybe is kind of missing right now, 508 00:37:20,370 --> 00:37:27,090 since that's an empty lot for so much of the year, and Frozen Custard is the thing that I do, 509 00:37:27,210 --> 00:37:29,970 so I would hope it would fill a good little... 510 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:40,360 Gap that's there, and that we could pick right up where the Beagarden Center leaves off.

Reed and he's here speaking relative to the space museum in 662 00:46:55,380 --> 00:46:56,380 Grison Center. 663 00:46:58,870 --> 00:47:03,630 Good evening. I'm Alvin Reed, resident of Kirkwood, Missouri and you may be wondering 664 00:47:03,630 --> 00:47:11,870 Why am I here? Well, I'm a space kid and I grew up watching the space program and I was 665 00:47:11,870 --> 00:47:17,010 riveted to it and to this day I still have a dream that maybe one day too I will get to 666 00:47:17,010 --> 00:47:22,670 go up in space. Well I've always noted this and I've said this I'm on a television program called 667 00:47:22,670 --> 00:47:26,630 Dining Brook that comes on a channel 9 and that's not very important but behind me on the mantle 668 00:47:26,630 --> 00:47:33,030 is a friendship 7 spaceship and I bought that and I put it on that mantle because it's always been 669 00:47:33,030 --> 00:47:38,790 part of my life, but St. Louis's then forgotten its recognition for its importance to the space 670 00:47:38,790 --> 00:47:45,430 program in part because St. Louis has never sought recognition for its importance to the space 671 00:47:45,430 --> 00:47:52,210 program. And any time you see a kind of a black and white film of Mercury or the early days of 672 00:47:52,210 --> 00:47:57,030 Apollo, St. Louis is very involved in that. And we just haven't reached out and graphs the opportunity 673 00:47:57,030 --> 00:48:02,830 and take an advantage of it. I remember the night that Gus Grisson was killed, an 674 00:48:02,830 --> 00:48:07,290 Ed White and Roger Chaffey. I remember watching the news late into the evening on 675 00:48:07,290 --> 00:48:13,610 that. And in my six-year-old heart, I really did think, don't stop. Well, they didn't 676 00:48:13,610 --> 00:48:19,510 stop. And one small step for man and one giant lead for mankind later, Neil Armstrong 677 00:48:19,510 --> 00:48:24,270 was walking on the moon, and I watched it, and I watched every second of it. So every 678 00:48:24,270 --> 00:48:28,850 opportunity I have to share with young people, and some of you all weren't alive when the 679 00:48:28,850 --> 00:48:33,630 ill-armed stock walked on the move, but the mayor was, and I was, and this opportunity 680 00:48:33,630 --> 00:48:38,830 is one, I think you guys should really grasp and take advantage of, because you may ask, 681 00:48:38,970 --> 00:48:43,410 who's going to come to see it? Well, that kid from Kirkwood who's like me is going to come 682 00:48:43,410 --> 00:48:48,610 to see it, and who's going to appreciate it? Well, those of us that are dreams and our 683 00:48:48,610 --> 00:48:53,610 aspirations weren't really tied to the space program, but I can't do spirit that is a company 684 00:48:53,610 --> 00:49:00,450 me through my life is part of that too. The will to do things, start it when John Kennedy 685 00:49:00,450 --> 00:49:04,310 said, let's put a man on the moon. We put it a man on the moon. I've always thought, 686 00:49:04,410 --> 00:49:08,110 well, first thing I do is decide you're going to do it. And I think if you decide to do 687 00:49:08,110 --> 00:49:13,310 this, it will pay off for the city of St. Charles. Well, I'm not arrested in the St. Charles, 688 00:49:13,510 --> 00:49:18,390 my daughter is. My daughter has a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering and a master's 689 00:49:18,390 --> 00:49:23,010 degree in electrical engineering from the University of Missouri.

Currently, this property 842 00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:18,720 is owned R1E in St. Charles County. The adjacent property that is within the city of St. Charles 843 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:26,880 is owned R-1E, it's the same zoning essentially, just difference between county and city.

I do have speaker cards tonight. 857 01:00:28,530 --> 01:00:33,550 place. Mr. Where if I can ask for your assistance. I have Speaker Bill Norton, but he needs 858 01:00:33,550 --> 01:00:37,670 a handheld mic. He cannot make it up to the podium. So, this is Bill Norton. He's 859 01:00:37,670 --> 01:00:41,310 here speaking relative to this application and this council bill. 860 01:00:41,510 --> 01:00:46,710 It's going right. Oh, we got it. She's got thanks for joining me. Okay. Very good. 861 01:00:47,650 --> 01:00:53,790 You can start, sir. Whenever you're ready. Thank you. My name is Bill Norton, and I'm 25 862 01:00:53,790 --> 01:00:59,470 of your resident of St. Charles as well. I live in Ward 5, and I'm on the north side of 863 01:00:59,470 --> 01:01:04,470 this property. So, hence, my concern. So, and I say it's appropriate that this 864 01:01:04,470 --> 01:01:09,470 public hearing is on election day here in St. Charles County. That election that has spurred 865 01:01:09,470 --> 01:01:15,510 a new six-month moratorium on new apartment construction and unincarparated areas of the 866 01:01:15,510 --> 01:01:21,950 county. Clearly, taxes crime and new apartments are the big three-focus areas today. And 867 01:01:21,950 --> 01:01:28,250 Dr. Pose attacks as taxpayers, mostly single family homeowners, are tired of more density 868 01:01:28,250 --> 01:01:29,450 and more development. 869 01:01:29,950 --> 01:01:36,830 We didn't move from St. Louis County 25 years ago, just to watch St. Charles and St. Charles 870 01:01:36,830 --> 01:01:39,510 County be turned into another St. Louis County. 871 01:01:40,150 --> 01:01:43,350 We don't want to change the dynamics of where we live. 872 01:01:43,930 --> 01:01:46,710 Schools are becoming more congested. 873 01:01:46,710 --> 01:01:53,870 aging infrastructure is over-stressed, and the immediately road traffic is already ridiculous. 874 01:01:55,490 --> 01:01:57,350 It's dangerous, and it's overcrowded. 875 01:01:58,150 --> 01:02:05,850 A recent study that I read showed that a spike to 41 percent of new residential construction 876 01:02:05,850 --> 01:02:08,970 in St. Charles County were rental apartments. 877 01:02:09,530 --> 01:02:15,550 Now it's a given that this proposed luxury rental townhouse development 878 01:02:15,550 --> 01:02:23,130 is much nicer than your average apartment complex, but it is still very much out of place 879 01:02:23,130 --> 01:02:31,650 in this mostly single family owned subdivision area of St. Charles. It would be much better 880 01:02:31,650 --> 01:02:41,470 place and a more suitable location. I respectfully propose that council members take into under 881 01:02:41,470 --> 01:02:49,710 advisement, the concerns of the constituents here and not the developers, and consider passing 882 01:02:49,710 --> 01:02:55,630 a moratorium on new apartments construction in the city of St. Charles as soon as possible. 883 01:02:56,190 --> 01:03:03,890 Let's put the long-term homeowners and constituents concerns first again. And thank you for 884 01:03:03,890 --> 01:03:04,710 your consideration. 885 01:03:05,790 --> 01:03:07,190 Thank you, sir. 886 01:03:09,730 --> 01:03:10,030 Okay. 887 01:03:10,510 --> 01:03:14,570 Our next speaker is Crill Brown from 1710 Muggy Road, 888 01:03:14,670 --> 01:03:16,810 and here's speaking relative to this application. 889 01:03:23,610 --> 01:03:24,870 In Mayor and Council. 890 01:03:25,970 --> 01:03:27,510 My name is Crill Brown. 891 01:03:27,910 --> 01:03:32,150 I live at 1710 and 1712 Muggy Road. 892 01:03:33,810 --> 01:03:37,190 I bought this property in 1974. 893 01:03:38,230 --> 01:03:41,470 I carved out three acres from a farm. 894 01:03:41,470 --> 01:03:51,830 my dream. At the time, Mughi Road was a two-lane asphalt road with grass ditches, not even 895 01:03:51,830 --> 01:04:00,710 ditches, the grass ditches. I have watched Greystone develop in stages to approximately 896 01:04:00,710 --> 01:04:11,210 389 homes, then St. Charles crossing up by the gas station, and it was approximately 61 homes. 897 01:04:11,910 --> 01:04:27,170 Spring mills, next with development, using about 100 acres with 147 homes, followed by 2 one-way street villas on either side of the property, adding approximately 40 homes. 898 01:04:27,170 --> 01:04:36,690 Totally and approximately 587 homes within the proximity of the property that you're considering. 899 01:04:37,290 --> 01:04:40,370 These are all changes just very close to the property. 900 01:04:41,170 --> 01:04:51,930 Compared to the aforementioned number of homes, an addition of 50 homes is like a drop in the bucket to add to what is already been developed. 901 01:04:51,930 --> 01:04:54,290 It would about a tenth. 902 01:04:55,330 --> 01:04:57,430 Whether you watch your home fresh built, 903 01:04:58,490 --> 01:05:00,510 or you are the third, fourth, third, 904 01:05:01,310 --> 01:05:03,210 whatever owner of that home, 905 01:05:04,650 --> 01:05:08,210 your house has contributed to the loss of a green space 906 01:05:08,210 --> 01:05:11,590 and added to the traffic on a newbie road. 907 01:05:12,410 --> 01:05:14,910 I'm sure you're glad that it's there though. 908 01:05:15,930 --> 01:05:18,810 I'm glad that I'm there. 909 01:05:18,810 --> 01:05:25,310 Grace don't mill spring mill and Grace don't may say that they have a considering the traffic port portion 910 01:05:25,990 --> 01:05:28,470 They may say that they have a light 911 01:05:28,470 --> 01:05:30,660 allowing them to get on the movie road 912 01:05:32,490 --> 01:05:37,270 A light is yes, but once you make that left a right turn on movie road 913 01:05:37,270 --> 01:05:42,280 You are part of the traffic just like everyone else along movie road 914 01:05:42,990 --> 01:05:45,970 You've added years to it. I 915 01:05:45,970 --> 01:05:47,150 Like the thanks console 916 01:05:47,150 --> 01:05:52,070 for listening to me, the mayor, for listening to me and knows that are here in attendance. 917 01:05:52,650 --> 01:05:54,070 Thank you very much. 918 01:05:54,790 --> 01:05:55,550 Thank you, Mr. Currell. 919 01:05:57,110 --> 01:06:02,410 Okay. Next up is Mike Simmer, and he is also here speaking relative to Larson Development. 920 01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:09,300 Thank you. 921 01:06:09,620 --> 01:06:15,320 I've got some prepared comments. I actually sent a letter to Mayor Dan and Councilman Mitchell in July 6. 922 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:19,420 I like to read that to the council, because I think it has some merit to this situation. 923 01:06:19,420 --> 01:06:25,620 Again, my name is Mike Seamer, I reside in my wife and I reside in Springnil, a community 924 01:06:25,620 --> 01:06:29,940 across from the proposed Larson for eight acre development on Miki Road. 925 01:06:31,060 --> 01:06:34,560 I've reviewed the proposed development, and I'm strongly opposed to such development. 926 01:06:35,260 --> 01:06:42,800 The density is far too high for a community, and as a proposed rental community is likely to deteriorate over time. 927 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:50,560 My company is an owner developer of 10,000 apartment units all over the country and I have 928 01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:52,500 great experience in this area. 929 01:06:53,440 --> 01:07:00,520 As primarily a single family community, our strength comes from ownership and care about 930 01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:02,240 an individual's property. 931 01:07:03,300 --> 01:07:08,980 Additionally, traffic on Migi Road is already very congested during the rush hour and 932 01:07:08,980 --> 01:07:14,460 safety and of ingress and egress is very questionable. I've read the traffic 933 01:07:14,460 --> 01:07:20,280 studies that contradict this position but I live here and I witness this 934 01:07:20,820 --> 01:07:26,760 the congestion, the speed and the accidents. Furthermore, the density of the 935 01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:29,300 the most community for the burden of the school system. 936 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:29,980 I just 937 01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:36,000 It's recently learned that the average cost to educate a child in our committee is $17,000 per student. 938 01:07:36,780 --> 01:07:44,700 Well above the implicit real estate tax paid on a unit. This project is beyond the bounds of 939 01:07:44,700 --> 01:07:52,060 bonus. I find no benefit for the folks who live here. My question for your consideration, 940 01:07:52,980 --> 01:08:00,600 who benefits? Larsen will likely develop, stabilize the community, sell and exit. 941 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:07,920 The sellers will likely achieve the maximum price for their property. The folks who live here 942 01:08:08,740 --> 01:08:16,220 Let's call this what this is, a profit maximization strategy for the landowners and developers. 943 01:08:17,440 --> 01:08:19,860 The local folks suffer the consequences. 944 01:08:21,380 --> 01:08:27,240 This project, as proposed, does not play out well for the mayor's office, are the council. 945 01:08:28,900 --> 01:08:35,940 The neighboring communities are greatly opposed, as well as the numerous neighbors that I personally discussed this issue with. 946 01:08:35,940 --> 01:08:40,700 There are no conditions for ongoing maintenance of the rental community, post-development. 947 01:08:41,500 --> 01:08:47,000 As a developer, I'm supportive of growth, I've built all over the country, billions of 948 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:47,380 dollars. 949 01:08:48,500 --> 01:08:52,360 I know what I'm doing, I know what this looks like, I know what the impact is going 950 01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:53,400 to be for a community. 951 01:08:55,920 --> 01:09:00,880 This eight acre partial should be made available to a developer with the intention to build 952 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:02,140 single family homes. 953 01:09:02,140 --> 01:09:09,060 Our town homes are reasonable density, support the long-term viability of the community and to keep 954 01:09:09,060 --> 01:09:13,660 our Saint-Charles strong with ownership and care for our community. 955 01:09:14,580 --> 01:09:15,460 Thank you. 956 01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:15,840 Thank you. 957 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:24,740 Next up is, next up is John Black and he's a homeowner in Bogey Hills and he's here 958 01:09:24,740 --> 01:09:26,860 speaking against the Larson applications. 959 01:09:33,860 --> 01:09:40,020 My name is John Black and in the last several weeks I've done a lot of research on 960 01:09:40,020 --> 01:09:48,560 and Larson development group, and they actually have very good reviews across the country. 961 01:09:49,500 --> 01:09:58,500 That being said, this project is going to contribute traffic, traffic on Mugie Road with 962 01:09:58,500 --> 01:10:06,460 no stoplight there, because the graystone stoplight is 60, 70 yards down the hill. 963 01:10:06,460 --> 01:10:15,680 So, what Larsen development does, and if you look up their web page, they build single family rental homes, 964 01:10:16,300 --> 01:10:31,080 communities typically two to 300 units, they, it says, we build, lease up, stabilize, and sell off to REITs, real estate investment trust. 965 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:39,380 Another page on them, which just says, we build, lease up, stabilize, and sell off to 966 01:10:39,380 --> 01:10:40,540 REITs. 967 01:10:41,380 --> 01:10:48,600 So, no matter how good they are, whoever the REIT that comes in may not enforce all of 968 01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:59,560 the same things that Grarson wants to do, but 50 homes with two car garages, 100 cars, and it's 969 01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:07,800 probably going to be a couple of people far more living in these because $4,000 a month 970 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:14,420 rent is quite a bit for one person. Also, I've heard conflicting reports about whether 971 01:11:14,420 --> 01:11:20,140 there's parking on the streets. I've been told there's no parking on the streets. I've 972 01:11:20,140 --> 01:11:26,660 told there's parking on the streets. Either way, when holidays come around, that is going 973 01:11:26,660 --> 01:11:35,460 to be an absolute mess, Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, when people come to visit these people. 974 01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:42,140 That the parking in there will be awful, they'll be parking in the other neighborhoods 975 01:11:42,140 --> 01:11:47,040 because they're just as not room in this development for any parking. 976 01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:59,990 I haven't heard from any people that live in the area that are appreciative of this project 977 01:11:59,990 --> 01:12:02,010 and what it can do for St. Charles. 978 01:12:02,830 --> 01:12:08,190 Like Mike Seer said, it is going to be a mess. 979 01:12:09,490 --> 01:12:18,390 And if we, the people, are to be heard from this committee, you've got to put this down 980 01:12:18,390 --> 01:12:19,930 and have something reasonable. 981 01:12:20,490 --> 01:12:25,010 It's just too many cars pulling out with no stoplight. 982 01:12:26,130 --> 01:12:27,510 Thank you for your time. 983 01:12:28,210 --> 01:12:28,910 Thank you, Mr. Black. 984 01:12:33,500 --> 01:12:34,940 Speaker is Ted Glosher, 985 01:12:35,020 --> 01:12:38,100 and he's here speaking against the Larson Development. 986 01:12:49,480 --> 01:12:51,880 Good and repetitive, so I'll try to keep it short. 987 01:12:53,040 --> 01:12:54,080 My name's Ted Glosher. 988 01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:56,260 I'm here representing my two daughters, 989 01:12:57,080 --> 01:13:00,540 their families that built their dream homes at 1723 990 01:13:00,540 --> 01:13:03,560 and 1733, Maggie Road. 991 01:13:05,220 --> 01:13:08,280 Like many residents in this surrounding neighbor, 992 01:13:08,340 --> 01:13:11,320 hers were strongly opposed to this proposed development. 993 01:13:12,020 --> 01:13:16,620 Traffic on Maggie Road has already exceeded what anyone could have ever anticipated, 994 01:13:17,380 --> 01:13:22,900 speeding congestion and safety concerns have been serious issues for the families living 995 01:13:22,900 --> 01:13:24,080 along that corridor. 996 01:13:25,100 --> 01:13:29,800 I respectfully ask that you do not make these problems worse by approving 997 01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:35,860 of the development that will place even more vehicles on an already overburden roadway. 998 01:13:36,860 --> 01:13:42,080 This proposal is not compatible with the existing Lose-Incity character of this surrounding 999 01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:42,720 neighborhoods. 1000 01:13:43,460 --> 01:13:48,460 You are not obligated to approve this type of a development simply because it's been proposed. 1001 01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:55,640 You have the authority to deny it, and your constituents have spoken with overwhelming opposition. 1002 01:13:56,700 --> 01:14:01,020 We're also concerned about adding more rental housing to the area. 1003 01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:07,020 While many renters or good neighbors, rental properties generally do not foster the same 1004 01:14:07,020 --> 01:14:14,700 long-term investment and pride of ownership that owner occupied homes provide, which is important 1005 01:14:14,700 --> 01:14:17,740 and maintaining the care and stability of our community. 1006 01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:24,920 I ask that you represent the will of the residents who elected you and vote to deny this 1007 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:27,000 education. Thank you. 1008 01:14:33,020 --> 01:14:40,420 Next up is Jean Moodry, and she is here representing herself and would like to speak in favor of the Larson development. 1009 01:14:42,140 --> 01:14:43,560 Hello, my name is Jean. 1010 01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:48,540 I did submit this letter to the St. Charles Planning Division. 1011 01:14:49,860 --> 01:14:53,300 My family owns the property at 1704 Musi Road. 1012 01:14:53,300 --> 01:14:59,620 My grandparents, Julius and Susie Selantutor purchased this property in 1945. 1013 01:15:00,020 --> 01:15:07,560 If 81 years ago, my grandmother was a teacher at Lincoln School in St. Charles and my grandfather worked 1014 01:15:07,560 --> 01:15:14,740 at the St. Charles Foundry when it was still a railroad manufacturing facility. I am 60 years 1015 01:15:14,740 --> 01:15:21,560 old and I was raised on this property. When it was considered out in the country, you 1016 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:26,880 He wrote was a quiet, two-lane road, and my brothers and I took every opportunity to 1017 01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:31,520 just let down its hills when Francis Hall declared a snow day. 1018 01:15:32,260 --> 01:15:37,580 The land that is now graystone, Hampton Place, and Springmill, was our family's playground. 1019 01:15:38,500 --> 01:15:42,920 We rode horses through the roads, played in the creeks, built forts, and enjoyed the freedom 1020 01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:44,320 of going up in the country. 1021 01:15:45,180 --> 01:15:51,080 As each subdivision was developed, we watched more of the woods in open land that had 1022 01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:59,280 part of our childhood disappear. As these neighborhoods grew, our quiet country road changed, 1023 01:16:00,100 --> 01:16:06,840 traffic increased, and the city required our family to sell a portion of frontage to allow 1024 01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:13,160 Mugi Road to be widened. While we understood the need, it was not something our family wanted 1025 01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:14,200 or chose. 1026 01:16:16,780 --> 01:16:22,060 Today, many of the people who enjoy living in these neighborhoods in traveling on widened 1027 01:16:22,060 --> 01:16:29,140 road oppose our family's opportunity to develop the property we have owned for more than eight decades. 1028 01:16:29,980 --> 01:16:34,080 We respect their concerns but we hope they also appreciate our perspective. 1029 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:42,840 After 81 years of caring for this land, our family is simply asking for the same opportunity others have had. 1030 01:16:43,400 --> 01:16:47,960 The proposed development complies with the city's density guidelines. 1031 01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:58,420 The traffic study shows minimal impact and the high-end home homes will complement the surrounding neighborhoods while adding value to the community. 1032 01:16:59,860 --> 01:17:05,320 Our family has watched this area transform from countryside into thriving neighborhoods. 1033 01:17:06,180 --> 01:17:16,940 We respectfully ask that after 81 years of stewardship, we be given the opportunity to move forward with a development that is consistent with the city's plans 1034 01:17:16,940 --> 01:17:19,280 and beneficial to the community. 1035 01:17:19,980 --> 01:17:21,160 Thank you for your consideration. 1036 01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:23,360 Thank you Ms. Mudri. 1037 01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:29,280 Next speaker is Karen Black, and she's here speaking 1038 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:30,560 against Larsen Development. 1039 01:17:36,780 --> 01:17:39,060 Hello, my name is Karen Black, 1040 01:17:39,440 --> 01:17:42,800 and I've lived in St. Charles for about 20 years. 1041 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:45,800 I'm amazed at the number of people 1042 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:50,160 who are born here and live here their entire life. 1043 01:17:50,740 --> 01:17:53,340 It's a remarkable thing about this community. 1044 01:17:54,560 --> 01:18:01,420 It says a lot. My husband John Black is one of those people. My concern with the proposed 1045 01:18:01,420 --> 01:18:08,340 Larson Development is first zoning it for rental multifamily living and what that will 1046 01:18:08,340 --> 01:18:15,540 mean for a long term. The additional vehicle traffic, the growing road noise and the direct 1047 01:18:15,540 --> 01:18:22,480 impact on the neighborhoods on either side. I've lived off the Mugikord or since moving here. 1048 01:18:22,480 --> 01:18:25,980 first in bogey village and then in bogey estates. 1049 01:18:26,940 --> 01:18:30,840 When my husband John built the home and built a bogey village, 1050 01:18:31,160 --> 01:18:33,320 mucy was a quiet, two-lane road. 1051 01:18:33,860 --> 01:18:36,500 It is now a bustling, four-lane road. 1052 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:39,760 You either wait an extended period of time 1053 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:41,800 to make a left turn safely, 1054 01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:44,800 or it's used like a drag strip. 1055 01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:48,260 I don't know much about traffic studies 1056 01:18:48,260 --> 01:18:50,500 and I understand the traffic study 1057 01:18:50,500 --> 01:18:54,060 that Larson has done meets St. Charles standards. 1058 01:18:55,160 --> 01:18:59,060 If that's the case, I think we should reconsider our standards. 1059 01:19:00,640 --> 01:19:08,800 We sold our home in Boogie Village in 2019, because we could no longer enjoy the back yard 1060 01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:11,240 or the sunroom because of the road noise. 1061 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:19,860 John and I found out firsthand that road noise reduces home values about 10%. 1062 01:19:19,860 --> 01:19:25,860 We then moved into bogey estates and made sure we moved further away from Mewgey. 1063 01:19:26,900 --> 01:19:33,200 The eight plus acres for the proposed development are in a wonderful location, no doubt. 1064 01:19:33,940 --> 01:19:42,060 The land would be ideal for a dozen free standing homes, 25 villas that are owner occupied. 1065 01:19:43,860 --> 01:19:46,140 Keeping the integrity of our area. 1066 01:19:46,140 --> 01:19:55,560 The Muggy corridor is home to some of the nicest neighborhoods in 6303, and I think it's important to keep that. 1067 01:19:56,220 --> 01:20:04,860 With the new townhouse development at Muggy and Old Highway 94, the wonderful upgrades that it for Wappelhorse Park. 1068 01:20:05,620 --> 01:20:09,920 It all has me very concerned of how much more Muggy can handle. 1069 01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:14,860 I don't want to see it turn into a residential Manchester Road. 1070 01:20:15,740 --> 01:20:20,740 I think we need to be very selective on how we move forward. 1071 01:20:21,580 --> 01:20:30,980 I'm asking the council to have faith in our community and faith that we will find the right project for that area. 1072 01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:36,520 We don't have to say I do to the first developer that asks. 1073 01:20:37,120 --> 01:20:38,600 Thank you. 1074 01:20:43,250 --> 01:20:50,430 Next speaker is Catherine Moore and she's here representing as an applicant representative speaking in favor of the application. 1075 01:20:52,290 --> 01:20:59,750 Good evening members of the Council Mr. Mayor. I'm here on behalf of Larson Development and I have a presentation for you. 1076 01:20:59,970 --> 01:21:09,390 I spoke to Mr. Boyer and we thought perhaps he would go through the staff's introduction of all three of the public hearings and then I could give it at the end and answer any questions. 1077 01:21:09,390 --> 01:21:12,390 unless you'd rather me.

It will fit a need for maintenance 1112 01:23:55,780 --> 01:24:01,960 reliving and it is absolutely in line with the city's comprehensive plan and other 1113 01:24:01,960 --> 01:24:07,320 developments seen in the area.

We didn't meet the markers. However, we did hire, lock-neular group, and our traffic 1185 01:29:12,900 --> 01:29:20,580 consultant is here, to do an traffic impact analysis or an assessment, which was quite thorough, 1186 01:29:20,580 --> 01:29:25,520 more so than is required for our application in the middle on this project and the findings 1187 01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:34,500 were that the impact of stone moss villas on muby will be marginal if it all that it will 1188 01:29:34,500 --> 01:29:39,420 not create a major impact and that was presented in the staff report detailed in the staff 1189 01:29:39,420 --> 01:29:44,460 report that you should have and explained to the planning and zoning commission as well. 1190 01:29:44,940 --> 01:29:48,560 So we're happy to talk you through that should you have any questions about how the traffic 1191 01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:55,700 was reviewed. Also, as it sits today, there's three homes with three curb cuts on Muggy 1192 01:29:55,700 --> 01:29:59,660 rope. We will be eliminating two curb cuts. 1193 01:30:00,110 --> 01:30:07,930 Putting in one, a roadway built to city standards, even though we'll be privately maintained by the community, by Larson Development. 1194 01:30:08,950 --> 01:30:15,110 And that will change by having one more efficient curb cut bit built to city standards. 1195 01:30:15,590 --> 01:30:21,130 We are not creating a detriment to Muggy Road. We're lessening the amount of curb cuts. 1196 01:30:21,130 --> 01:30:30,110 and traffic counts, site distance and location have all been reviewed and all meet your city's code and your city's standards. 1197 01:30:33,530 --> 01:30:37,770 We have complied for this project with all of the city's planning documents. 1198 01:30:38,310 --> 01:30:43,310 The annexation is called for in this area. This is a growth area in the city's comprehensive plan. 1199 01:30:43,310 --> 01:30:50,170 The residential development, the Villa Project, is in line with the density and with the 1200 01:30:50,170 --> 01:30:51,990 development you've seen in this area. 1201 01:30:52,610 --> 01:30:55,650 It fully complies with the requirements of your city code. 1202 01:30:56,490 --> 01:31:00,690 And it is in line with the development patterns that you have seen in this area. 1203 01:31:01,170 --> 01:31:02,850 There are adjacent Villa communities. 1204 01:31:03,110 --> 01:31:05,950 There are residential communities in this area. 1205 01:31:06,510 --> 01:31:08,110 A commercial use wouldn't go here. 1206 01:31:08,210 --> 01:31:10,870 This is the type of land use that is appropriate here. 1207 01:31:10,870 --> 01:31:15,370 And it satisfies the intent of a planned district zoning district. 1208 01:31:16,130 --> 01:31:17,210 It's got efficient planning. 1209 01:31:17,630 --> 01:31:21,250 It's prioritizing tree preservation and common ground. 1210 01:31:21,770 --> 01:31:23,590 Prioritizing community amenities. 1211 01:31:25,590 --> 01:31:28,610 And bringing infrastructure, bringing an aesthetic, 1212 01:31:28,830 --> 01:31:31,390 and bringing a high-end luxury community to the city. 1213 01:31:32,070 --> 01:31:38,630 And I will be happy to answer your questions and discuss any of the concerns 1214 01:31:38,630 --> 01:31:44,290 that we have heard from some of the public speakers, should you have any, because I don't 1215 01:31:44,290 --> 01:31:49,850 think you want me to use this time on that unless I'm mistaken. But to finish this part 1216 01:31:49,850 --> 01:31:55,830 of my presentation, this is a consistent project with what the city wants to see, which is 1217 01:31:55,830 --> 01:32:01,630 high-end luxury development, residential development. The staff report highlights how our 1218 01:32:01,630 --> 01:32:08,130 density here for the Stone Moss Villas is less than other communities in the area, and within 1219 01:32:08,130 --> 01:32:11,110 the range of what would be anticipated on this property. 1220 01:32:11,990 --> 01:32:16,010 The architectural elements and amenities are in line with what you attract in a planned 1221 01:32:16,010 --> 01:32:23,770 district development, such as this, and the city staff did a deep-diver view and they found 1222 01:32:23,770 --> 01:32:28,750 compliance with the city's governing documents and recommended approval as did the planning 1223 01:32:28,750 --> 01:32:29,830 and zoning commission. 1224 01:32:30,390 --> 01:32:36,630 So we are here asking the city council to likewise look at this amazing residential project, 1225 01:32:36,630 --> 01:32:44,390 see how it complies, see how it will improve this property from an infrastructure standpoint and bring quality 1226 01:32:44,390 --> 01:32:51,150 residents to the city and frankly allow people who want maintenance free living and already live here to stay. 1227 01:32:51,650 --> 01:33:00,550 There is a need for this type of development and we strongly appreciate your open mind and your consideration. 1228 01:33:00,550 --> 01:33:02,890 and we understand the rental concept 1229 01:33:02,890 --> 01:33:05,870 throws some people off and we've heard the criticism. 1230 01:33:06,890 --> 01:33:10,330 But any single family home can be rented long-term. 1231 01:33:11,350 --> 01:33:14,630 There is no prohibition against any of us renting out 1232 01:33:14,630 --> 01:33:17,850 our home in St. Charles to long as it's over a year lease. 1233 01:33:18,530 --> 01:33:22,770 Airbnb, VRBO, those can be prohibited by homeowners associations 1234 01:33:22,770 --> 01:33:25,610 and often are and by cities and counties. 1235 01:33:25,610 --> 01:33:30,710 but anyone who owns a property has the right to rent it. 1236 01:33:31,030 --> 01:33:32,830 And there's many reasons for that, 1237 01:33:33,150 --> 01:33:36,310 to be able to travel, to be able to have the maintenance free living, 1238 01:33:36,810 --> 01:33:40,050 to move for a new job and not be familiar with your career, 1239 01:33:40,150 --> 01:33:41,710 but want to hire and standard. 1240 01:33:42,390 --> 01:33:43,710 These are four professionals. 1241 01:33:44,050 --> 01:33:46,730 These are for Boeing, these are for MasterCard. 1242 01:33:47,350 --> 01:33:49,670 These are for empty nesters. 1243 01:33:50,150 --> 01:33:53,770 Who want to know how home will be maintained and be maintained professionally 1244 01:33:53,770 --> 01:33:56,930 while they're traveling while they're in Florida for three months. 1245 01:33:57,350 --> 01:34:05,970 That's the market here, there is no crime, there's no concerns such as a low quality 1246 01:34:05,970 --> 01:34:13,570 resident, not that I think any municipality no matter how hard we try can determine that in advance. 1247 01:34:14,110 --> 01:34:19,630 So what we're doing is bringing you a luxury product at a luxury price point and a great 1248 01:34:19,630 --> 01:34:22,770 area that will be beautiful and beautifully maintained. 1249 01:34:23,650 --> 01:34:27,490 And we appreciate your consideration and we're here to answer your questions. 1250 01:34:29,350 --> 01:34:30,690 Any questions for the applicant?

I'm Michelle Romain, a licensed professional engineer in the state of Missouri and a professional traffic operation here on behalf of Lockmieler Group. 1295 01:37:06,700 --> 01:37:09,960 I'm here to help answer any questions that you may have with respect to the traffic. 1296 01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:13,180 Who's virtual? 1297 01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:20,460 Um, I don't know if this is a question for you or staff, but when you were looking at the 1298 01:37:20,460 --> 01:37:24,280 traffic patterns, the cars coming in and out, 1299 01:37:26,550 --> 01:37:29,970 were you looking at speed, the speed rate of the- 1300 01:37:32,260 --> 01:37:46,880 So, the speed is typically taken into consideration for the site distance, whenever you place the access drive, you want to make sure it's in a safe spot. The site distance has been evaluated both by CEC as well as the city staff and it was determined that adequate sites this since was made for the speed of the roadway. 1301 01:37:48,240 --> 01:37:49,500 Okay, was that minimum standards? 1302 01:37:50,720 --> 01:37:55,960 Yes, and as well as the design speed, which is five miles above the posts, it's be them at two. 1303 01:37:55,960 --> 01:37:58,540 Thank you. 1304 01:38:02,540 --> 01:38:03,140 Thanks. You have a question? 1305 01:38:04,000 --> 01:38:04,460 Mr. Holler. 1306 01:38:05,300 --> 01:38:08,300 Yeah. Can you explain, I was at planning and zoning. 1307 01:38:09,700 --> 01:38:12,960 And your traffic study, what was the traffic volume 1308 01:38:12,960 --> 01:38:15,900 that was projected from this development 1309 01:38:15,900 --> 01:38:19,080 both during the morning hours in the evening return? 1310 01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:21,720 Yes. So the anticipated traffic development 1311 01:38:21,720 --> 01:38:25,220 or generation would be 14 trips in the morning peak hour 1312 01:38:25,220 --> 01:38:27,800 and then 21 trips in the evening peak hour. 1313 01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:31,000 These are the typical commuter peak hours along Mugie Road, 1314 01:38:31,260 --> 01:38:32,140 when it's a busiest. 1315 01:38:32,760 --> 01:38:34,520 These numbers are based on the Institute 1316 01:38:34,520 --> 01:38:37,160 of Transportation Engineers' Trip Generation Manual. 1317 01:38:37,340 --> 01:38:39,700 They're based on calculations from studies 1318 01:38:39,700 --> 01:38:42,960 well over 25 studies on both peak hours. 1319 01:38:44,580 --> 01:38:48,620 So out of the number of houses are units that are there, 1320 01:38:48,980 --> 01:38:50,660 you know, there's somewhere around 50 cars 1321 01:38:50,660 --> 01:38:52,300 or you're only thinking 14 or leaving 1322 01:38:52,300 --> 01:38:53,660 in the peak time in the morning. 1323 01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:55,120 That's in the peak hour. 1324 01:38:55,340 --> 01:38:57,560 So each house to give a little bit more background 1325 01:38:57,560 --> 01:39:02,920 over the course of a full day. So 24 hours of the day would generate about six to seven trips. 1326 01:39:03,580 --> 01:39:07,240 So think about your house and your family. You know, if you have a two-car garage, two people 1327 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:13,580 leaving to go to work, that's four trips. And then you have another two to three trips. If you were to go to the grocery store, 1328 01:39:13,760 --> 01:39:17,580 take your kit to soccer, it's a reasonable amount of trips or at the course of a day. 1329 01:39:18,060 --> 01:39:22,780 That said, these trips are spurred out all throughout the day. Not everybody has the same work schedules. 1330 01:39:23,260 --> 01:39:26,540 some people are retired, some people work from home. 1331 01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:28,900 They don't all occur within one hour. 1332 01:39:29,020 --> 01:39:31,740 They happen pretty consistently throughout a day. 1333 01:39:32,380 --> 01:39:34,220 And as noted during the peak hour, when you 1334 01:39:34,220 --> 01:39:36,200 get noticed the busiest, it would be anticipated 1335 01:39:36,200 --> 01:39:39,120 that there would only be about 21 trips in the PN that's 1336 01:39:39,120 --> 01:39:39,420 the highest. 1337 01:39:39,700 --> 01:39:41,620 That's one trip every three minutes. 1338 01:39:41,860 --> 01:39:44,640 That's not a significant, you know, almost in consequential. 1339 01:39:46,440 --> 01:39:48,560 And then I think the other issue that came up planning 1340 01:39:48,560 --> 01:39:55,700 zoning was the site distance they're going up the hill. Have you looked at other 1341 01:39:55,700 --> 01:40:01,680 opportunities for a different location of the entryway into it to kind of 1342 01:40:01,680 --> 01:40:08,580 alleviate that site concern? Yeah, so the location of the access drive is 1343 01:40:09,280 --> 01:40:12,680 CEC's working on that. I know that there is another location. They've been 1344 01:40:12,680 --> 01:40:17,740 working with city staff. If you do have a specific question, Coral, would be 1345 01:40:17,740 --> 01:40:26,440 Well, but there is another location, and it's my understanding that the applicant is open to moving to that location if it's preferred sight distance was met at both locations. 1346 01:40:28,320 --> 01:40:32,180 Okay, I think behind you wants to speak to that issue. 1347 01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:44,920 Hi, yes. Again, we've been very communicative with city staff and Carl R. Engineer has looked at some options. 1348 01:40:44,920 --> 01:40:50,940 And there's only really two potential options here, both of which meet the city standard. 1349 01:40:52,480 --> 01:40:59,360 So we still wish to move forward with the presented plan because there weren't any major benefits from the other alternative. 1350 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:05,580 But if there is an alternative plan that if that's the city's preference, we'll entertain that. 1351 01:41:06,300 --> 01:41:14,900 But from our review of the city's comments and Carl's review, we didn't see there was much benefit to move it. 1352 01:41:16,100 --> 01:41:18,980 But we're open if that's the council's preference. 1353 01:41:23,140 --> 01:41:26,020 Yeah, yes. So has the engineering looked at that alternative? 1354 01:41:26,960 --> 01:41:28,260 I mean, do we know? 1355 01:41:31,920 --> 01:41:35,380 Uh, we sent a, oh great. 1356 01:41:39,940 --> 01:41:41,460 Yeah, I'm Nick Galler for everyone in the audience. 1357 01:41:42,140 --> 01:41:43,720 I'm the assistant to City Engineer. 1358 01:41:44,320 --> 01:41:46,020 And yeah, we did take a look, 1359 01:41:46,100 --> 01:41:50,320 a preliminary layout that looked at shifting the entrance further to the south, 1360 01:41:50,940 --> 01:41:53,600 which would allow for even more side distance. 1361 01:41:53,600 --> 01:41:58,820 So, as they mentioned before, the current layout that they have does meet our minimum 1362 01:41:58,820 --> 01:42:04,160 criteria for both 40 mile an hour, which is the postage speed, and 45 miles an hour. 1363 01:42:04,820 --> 01:42:10,560 As you move further to the south, you kind of get to the crest of the hill, and at some 1364 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:12,500 point, you're able to see much, much further. 1365 01:42:13,520 --> 01:42:21,400 So the plenary layout that we've crucially, you know, initially reviewed that intranslocation 1366 01:42:21,400 --> 01:42:23,160 would exceed our minimum standards. 1367 01:42:23,460 --> 01:42:26,000 You'd be able to see much farther than the minimum. 1368 01:42:27,840 --> 01:42:32,740 So with that said, would you prefer that other locations? 1369 01:42:33,340 --> 01:42:37,780 Does it provide a greater sight distance or, I mean, 1370 01:42:37,800 --> 01:42:40,180 you just looked at it pulling on, you know, 1371 01:42:41,880 --> 01:42:42,500 just, yeah, correct. 1372 01:42:42,580 --> 01:42:45,820 From a sight distance standpoint and from a transportation standpoint, 1373 01:42:46,800 --> 01:42:49,200 you would be a safer benefit 1374 01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:54,540 and there'd be more improvements for having the entrance shifted further towards the south 1375 01:42:54,540 --> 01:43:00,440 because you'd be able to see much further and it gave drivers more time to react to 1376 01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:03,240 turning movements coming in and out of the subdivision. 1377 01:43:03,980 --> 01:43:04,520 Thank you. 1378 01:43:06,670 --> 01:43:07,330 Mr. Bradford. 1379 01:43:08,890 --> 01:43:10,190 So I mean I wanted to ask that same thing. 1380 01:43:10,350 --> 01:43:15,130 So you're saying this secondary proposed entrance location is safer. 1381 01:43:15,450 --> 01:43:16,630 Would be safer in your opinion. 1382 01:43:17,250 --> 01:43:19,250 Yes, it exceeds our minimum standards. 1383 01:43:19,250 --> 01:43:24,110 the currently out that they have does meet our current standard, but the shifted entrance would 1384 01:43:24,110 --> 01:43:24,910 exceed those. 1385 01:43:24,970 --> 01:43:28,310 Okay, able to see further down the road. 1386 01:43:28,810 --> 01:43:28,830 Good. 1387 01:43:28,950 --> 01:43:29,590 Thank you, Nick. 1388 01:43:29,730 --> 01:43:30,110 For that. 1389 01:43:31,170 --> 01:43:35,690 So, you know, that's a concern that I think made sense from a lot of residents who spoke 1390 01:43:35,690 --> 01:43:40,310 tonight because New Year Road is not a bubble. 1391 01:43:40,770 --> 01:43:42,590 People with the speed on it there? 1392 01:43:43,010 --> 01:43:45,090 Forty miles per hour is the post of speed. 1393 01:43:45,510 --> 01:43:45,570 Okay. 1394 01:43:45,630 --> 01:43:49,230 And I think the traffic study said, we think people 1395 01:43:49,230 --> 01:43:51,150 might go five miles over, right? 1396 01:43:52,970 --> 01:43:53,350 OK. 1397 01:43:54,190 --> 01:43:56,550 That's what our traffic engineers have to look at. 1398 01:43:56,550 --> 01:43:58,150 That's what they look at to decide. 1399 01:43:58,810 --> 01:44:03,050 And what I'm suggesting is real world people are going faster than that. 1400 01:44:03,170 --> 01:44:03,510 I don't know. 1401 01:44:03,810 --> 01:44:05,850 We used to have signs out there. 1402 01:44:05,890 --> 01:44:09,610 Do we have records that people do go faster than five miles over? 1403 01:44:09,650 --> 01:44:10,170 We do. 1404 01:44:10,810 --> 01:44:11,410 We do. 1405 01:44:11,850 --> 01:44:16,110 You know, I don't know if there's something we can't just look at it in a 1406 01:44:16,110 --> 01:44:20,350 and say, well, 50 homes is 14 in the morning, 21 in the evening, so we don't need a traffic 1407 01:44:20,350 --> 01:44:20,630 study. 1408 01:44:21,050 --> 01:44:27,090 Is there something we can do to broaden that look at the impact and what it would be on 1409 01:44:27,090 --> 01:44:27,290 Muggy? 1410 01:44:27,410 --> 01:44:27,930 I don't know. 1411 01:44:28,170 --> 01:44:29,370 Is there something we can do? 1412 01:44:29,650 --> 01:44:35,770 Yeah, what I would say is right now, at a four lane section, Muggy today, our average daily 1413 01:44:35,770 --> 01:44:41,630 traffic is about 20,000 cars per day, and with that type of a roadway, it's essentially 1414 01:44:41,630 --> 01:44:44,670 able to handle up to 40,000 cars per day. 1415 01:44:45,170 --> 01:44:51,170 So, that is a four lane section that's interceasing and that's what a four lane road can handle. 1416 01:44:51,990 --> 01:44:58,130 So, the additional development with 50 units, any amount of cars, six to seven trips per day, 1417 01:44:58,470 --> 01:44:59,970 that's in line with what we see at others. 1418 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:07,580 We're looking for developments for residential units, the amount of traffic that you're talking about per day is between, you know, 200 to 500 cards max. 1419 01:45:08,340 --> 01:45:15,520 So the amount of volume during the day would be almost negligible in comparison to the volumes that we see on Muggy today. 1420 01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:24,560 So what I would say is that we don't anticipate or expect any major traffic impacts based on this development. 1421 01:45:25,060 --> 01:45:29,560 The additional traffic that could be generated is really for their access in and out of the subdivision. 1422 01:45:30,440 --> 01:45:33,820 The volumes that are coming in and out does not warrant a traffic signal. 1423 01:45:34,380 --> 01:45:36,660 That would probably add for more congestion on MIGI. 1424 01:45:36,980 --> 01:45:39,640 So staff would not be supportive of a signal at that location. 1425 01:45:40,640 --> 01:45:43,760 So the amount of traffic is just one way in and out of that subdivision. 1426 01:45:43,820 --> 01:45:47,240 It's not connected to a graystone or other side streets. 1427 01:45:47,600 --> 01:45:52,940 So the traffic problems that makes this for that development is isolated to that development. 1428 01:45:53,400 --> 01:45:57,020 their struggles coming in and out of the subdivision, because the volumes are high on 1429 01:45:57,020 --> 01:46:00,980 Miyagi would be the users of that development. 1430 01:46:02,340 --> 01:46:03,520 Right, and that makes sense to me. 1431 01:46:03,700 --> 01:46:07,760 You know, if you choose to rent there, you're going to have to deal with getting out. 1432 01:46:08,580 --> 01:46:14,080 What I'm trying to get at is the existing conditions on Miyagi are not people going to speed limit 1433 01:46:14,080 --> 01:46:14,900 plus five. 1434 01:46:15,040 --> 01:46:17,180 They are people going faster than that. 1435 01:46:17,180 --> 01:46:23,360 So, you know, in approving this, are we creating an unsafe condition? 1436 01:46:23,660 --> 01:46:27,660 We know people speed there, you know, I mean, because there were records, right, Ms. 1437 01:46:27,780 --> 01:46:28,000 Mitchell? 1438 01:46:29,400 --> 01:46:34,960 Of the average speed of the vehicle in this area is 47 to 49 miles per hour. 1439 01:46:35,900 --> 01:46:35,920 Right. 1440 01:46:35,920 --> 01:46:36,080 Yeah. 1441 01:46:36,180 --> 01:46:43,140 So, it's called like the 85th percentile, which is the amount of traffic, most drivers are 1442 01:46:43,140 --> 01:46:49,320 probably driving like Miss Mitchell said between 45 and 50 miles per hour. So the site 1443 01:46:49,320 --> 01:46:54,360 distance that they looked at on their original one, where we require five miles per hour 1444 01:46:54,360 --> 01:47:00,140 over the post is element, knowing that, you know, almost all circumstances, people are driving 1445 01:47:00,140 --> 01:47:05,300 faster than this post is element. That's what they met on their original location. With the 1446 01:47:05,300 --> 01:47:11,540 shifted location, they're able to see at 55 miles an hour or plus. Besides distance, it hasn't 1447 01:47:11,540 --> 01:47:15,560 that much to where they can see much further down the road. 1448 01:47:16,120 --> 01:47:20,900 So not only for the 85th percentile, but even the extreme speeders, if they shift the entrance 1449 01:47:20,900 --> 01:47:26,560 further to the south, they'll be able to see much further than they would be at their 1450 01:47:26,560 --> 01:47:27,420 proposal occasion. 1451 01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:32,860 I mean, that's my biggest concern is creating a safe condition for anyone who travels on 1452 01:47:32,860 --> 01:47:32,960 you. 1453 01:47:33,040 --> 01:47:37,540 Whether they are moving into a new rental or they live there or they're just using it to 1454 01:47:37,540 --> 01:47:39,320 work from another neighborhood. 1455 01:47:40,760 --> 01:47:42,140 Nick, I hate to catch off, guard. 1456 01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:44,980 Is there a chance you could show us on Google Maps? 1457 01:47:46,180 --> 01:47:47,820 What I'm most interested in seeing, 1458 01:47:48,020 --> 01:47:50,540 it may be someone else would be better prepared to do that. 1459 01:47:51,880 --> 01:47:56,360 I'd like to really understand the three curb cuts going to one, 1460 01:47:56,880 --> 01:48:01,340 John, if you could show us that and where 1461 01:48:02,280 --> 01:48:05,800 the proposed from the applicant entrances, 1462 01:48:06,380 --> 01:48:09,300 And then where the secondary proposed one might be? 1463 01:48:14,870 --> 01:48:18,470 I'm just going to work off Google Maps as the fastest thing I can get to if that's okay. 1464 01:48:18,750 --> 01:48:21,270 I've partnered our GIS guy, so I'd love me to use their map. 1465 01:48:21,770 --> 01:48:21,990 Okay. 1466 01:48:29,500 --> 01:48:31,200 Maybe you can see it over there. 1467 01:48:53,790 --> 01:48:55,390 Well, I'd like to be able to see it, too. 1468 01:49:04,820 --> 01:49:04,980 All right. 1469 01:49:07,390 --> 01:49:11,870 So today there are three existing driveways, essentially, on this property. 1470 01:49:12,530 --> 01:49:15,090 So there's a driveway. Can't remember where my mouse cursor is today. 1471 01:49:16,610 --> 01:49:18,630 Here. I believe here and here. 1472 01:49:19,170 --> 01:49:28,590 So, these three driveways will come to one roadway standard entrance on the property. 1473 01:49:30,670 --> 01:49:36,490 Their proposed plan today is somewhere in this area, with their entrance, a shifted entrance 1474 01:49:36,490 --> 01:49:38,590 would be closer to this driveway here. 1475 01:49:38,950 --> 01:49:43,830 As you look towards the south, towards the bottom of the screen, you basically can see over 1476 01:49:43,830 --> 01:49:44,770 the crest of the hill. 1477 01:49:44,770 --> 01:49:49,030 So you'll be able to see much further down the roadway on the shifted entrance. 1478 01:50:01,770 --> 01:50:03,370 We're able to do that with staff, sir. 1479 01:50:03,830 --> 01:50:06,470 We're able to do that with staff or the applicant. 1480 01:50:07,290 --> 01:50:08,050 We're working that with. 1481 01:50:10,760 --> 01:50:12,700 Because that's part of the public hearing, sir. 1482 01:50:15,590 --> 01:50:18,110 Are you suggesting I shouldn't be able to ask a question of staff? 1483 01:50:18,910 --> 01:50:20,670 So I can understand how I should vote. 1484 01:50:24,550 --> 01:50:26,070 That's not part of the public hearing, sir. 1485 01:50:26,710 --> 01:50:27,730 I appreciate your comment. 1486 01:50:27,730 --> 01:50:37,810 And this is part of the discussion here where we are asking questions directly of staff to get details back for us to be able to provide information for us to be able to vote. 1487 01:50:40,950 --> 01:50:42,010 It's a staff member. 1488 01:50:47,990 --> 01:50:53,710 Okay, so the secondary proposed location obviously has better visibility. 1489 01:50:54,290 --> 01:51:04,430 It exceeds our minimum, which personally I think exceeding the minimum on a road like this where people drive faster than they should. 1490 01:51:04,430 --> 01:51:09,810 should probably be the goal. I would think. So thanks for bringing that up on 1491 01:51:09,810 --> 01:51:11,650 short notice without the warning Nick. 1492 01:51:14,080 --> 01:51:16,940 This is Mitchell. Hi, Nick. 1493 01:51:20,400 --> 01:51:20,760 The PD 1494 01:51:20,760 --> 01:51:26,820 weigh in on if this location changes further south is that help with backup 1495 01:51:26,820 --> 01:51:33,510 is possibly a great stone or spring melt that they weigh in. Does it what it 1496 01:51:33,510 --> 01:51:38,510 up at either location, if someone was coming in or out of that neighborhood, on 1497 01:51:38,510 --> 01:51:39,170 Miuqi? 1498 01:51:39,370 --> 01:51:40,050 Traffic congestion. 1499 01:51:40,750 --> 01:51:48,550 Like, did PD weigh in and say, propose location one or propose location two 1500 01:51:48,550 --> 01:51:55,850 to the south would be more safe as far as cars backing up or not? 1501 01:51:56,310 --> 01:51:59,250 I have not talked to police department about the ship to the entrance yet. 1502 01:51:59,250 --> 01:52:08,950 Okay. But either either location still safety risk with the speeding, just better visibility 1503 01:52:08,950 --> 01:52:16,730 at the, if it was moved, okay. Correct. So then my question is, let's say we close all 1504 01:52:16,730 --> 01:52:25,090 these public hearings. Is it staff that speaks to the applicant about, a changing the 1505 01:52:25,090 --> 01:52:29,970 entrance or do we need to amend that or ask them to. 1506 01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:32,340 And then that tonight before we close the hearings. 1507 01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:37,040 My understanding is they have a proposal out that they're able to provide tonight that they 1508 01:52:37,040 --> 01:52:39,280 could show you a concept plan. 1509 01:52:39,980 --> 01:52:41,000 That is accurate. 1510 01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:41,920 That is accurate. 1511 01:52:45,910 --> 01:52:47,210 It would be best and proper. 1512 01:52:47,230 --> 01:52:48,650 Probably from your personal position. 1513 01:52:48,770 --> 01:52:49,170 I'm sorry. 1514 01:52:49,310 --> 01:52:54,950 We think it would be proper for you to probably continue the public hearing so that way all 1515 01:52:54,950 --> 01:52:57,190 of your department heads can look at the alternative. 1516 01:52:57,990 --> 01:53:01,290 And then we can come back and conclude the public hearing at your next meetings. 1517 01:53:01,290 --> 01:53:06,270 And so that way, you don't feel like you're rushing anything unless you have a better perspective. 1518 01:53:06,790 --> 01:53:10,510 But we have hard copies for all of you of the alternative entrance. 1519 01:53:14,640 --> 01:53:19,240 From the community development standpoint, the planning side, shift in the entrance may 1520 01:53:19,240 --> 01:53:23,720 solve one problem, but we still have to verify that with all the moving, the moths around, 1521 01:53:23,820 --> 01:53:28,500 that that's not causing other issues of minimum compliance when it comes to the PD or the Zones 1522 01:53:28,500 --> 01:53:33,120 stance, which we have not had an opportunity to fully vet out, so we would need some time to 1523 01:53:34,840 --> 01:53:46,560 Okay, so if you're wanting to keep the public hearing open for staff to review that, are you 1524 01:53:46,560 --> 01:53:52,300 asking for all of the public hearings to be left open or just one? 1525 01:53:55,780 --> 01:54:00,720 Well, for an annexation in recent meetings in preliminary plan approval, we want them all 1526 01:54:00,720 --> 01:54:07,940 the same track anyway. So you can keep them all open or you could close, you know, the annexation 1527 01:54:08,600 --> 01:54:13,440 and the first rezoning and only keep the PD1 open. It's up to, I mean it's up to you, 1528 01:54:13,500 --> 01:54:18,140 but we wouldn't want one approved without them all being approved on the same agenda eventually. 1529 01:54:20,910 --> 01:54:25,550 I guess I'd want something from staff. What do you think? We should be doing here. 1530 01:54:27,540 --> 01:54:32,900 I mean, it's their application. It's their proposal. They can have a request to you just 1531 01:54:32,900 --> 01:54:38,020 like before we had an applicant with draw their application that is their right, I'm not suggesting 1532 01:54:38,020 --> 01:54:38,840 that here or anything. 1533 01:54:38,880 --> 01:54:40,360 I'm just using that as an example. 1534 01:54:42,800 --> 01:54:50,020 It's possible you could leave certain public hearings open and close the others from a technical 1535 01:54:50,020 --> 01:54:50,480 standpoint. 1536 01:54:50,720 --> 01:54:52,660 The public hearing will still be available anyways. 1537 01:54:53,160 --> 01:54:56,860 I think it's just a question of preference by maybe the council and the applicant, 1538 01:54:56,860 --> 01:54:59,840 whether they prefer to leave all of them open or only some of them. 1539 01:54:59,840 --> 01:55:05,180 It might be a little messy to close a couple and keep others open. 1540 01:55:05,200 --> 01:55:09,220 Probably keep them open, but how much time would the applicant need? 1541 01:55:10,240 --> 01:55:11,600 Or the staff need? 1542 01:55:11,960 --> 01:55:13,460 Well, we'll start with the applicant first. 1543 01:55:16,040 --> 01:55:24,920 We have the hard plan, and we actually already had sent a PDF to staff, but your council packet 1544 01:55:24,920 --> 01:55:31,120 had already gone out. And we didn't quite know this was a strong preference from the engineering 1545 01:55:31,120 --> 01:55:34,660 department. I've never spoken to your engineering department. So hearing their perspective, 1546 01:55:35,420 --> 01:55:42,700 I think we're ready to submit and have it evaluated by staff. So continuing the planned district, 1547 01:55:43,380 --> 01:55:49,040 public hearing, and perhaps closing the rest if you agree, John, we're open to staff, 1548 01:55:51,640 --> 01:56:02,340 but we wouldn't want any action taken on the other bills until the plan district was right for discussion and potential approval. 1549 01:56:16,140 --> 01:56:20,260 So it sounds like the easiest way to make the most sense is leave all the public earnings open. 1550 01:56:20,660 --> 01:56:22,020 Let's go through the time. 1551 01:56:22,360 --> 01:56:25,780 If we're ready to go on the next council meeting, we'll put it on the agenda. 1552 01:56:25,780 --> 01:56:29,540 but John saying that they should be able to get through it this week. 1553 01:56:30,640 --> 01:56:33,680 Okay, so when would we be wanting to leave them open to? 1554 01:56:33,740 --> 01:56:36,960 To the next council meeting, which is the 18th, 18th. 1555 01:56:38,920 --> 01:56:39,400 Okay. 1556 01:56:42,100 --> 01:56:42,380 Okay. 1557 01:56:44,140 --> 01:56:47,980 We would provide a supplemental RCA with, you know, our findings, 1558 01:56:48,140 --> 01:56:50,700 whether it's still compliant or if there are any issues, obviously. 1559 01:56:51,860 --> 01:56:56,780 Are we still just on the first case? 1560 01:56:56,960 --> 01:56:57,260 Yes. 1561 01:56:57,680 --> 01:56:58,520 We're on L. 1562 01:56:58,980 --> 01:57:04,820 And if I may, it may be able, it also allows some of the residents that want to rebut some 1563 01:57:04,820 --> 01:57:09,220 of those to be able to come back, review that, and be able to come back at the next meeting, 1564 01:57:09,360 --> 01:57:12,040 and be able to participate, and share their thoughts as well. 1565 01:57:14,570 --> 01:57:14,970 Mr. Bernie? 1566 01:57:16,150 --> 01:57:20,390 I may share my thoughts on the word rental. 1567 01:57:21,850 --> 01:57:31,050 When you think of Villa, I think of a luxury style, independent living, I don't necessarily think of rental, but I will say this to you. 1568 01:57:32,150 --> 01:57:36,470 I live in a Villa community, mile and a half from this location. 1569 01:57:37,430 --> 01:57:46,670 We have 23 villas where I live, and we send on nine acres of these 23 villas. 1570 01:57:46,670 --> 01:57:53,950 And the one thing I can tell you about the residents and my bill of community, we won't have a traffic problem on Muggy if we were there. 1571 01:57:55,250 --> 01:58:00,030 All of their group and I live in those villas with myself, our average age is 75. 1572 01:58:01,110 --> 01:58:03,070 Their old folks like the mayor and myself. 1573 01:58:04,570 --> 01:58:13,490 And there's very few trips per day because only four of the toll 23 folks even have employment that they leave. 1574 01:58:13,490 --> 01:58:18,710 So, the word rental is not the word that fits the word villa. 1575 01:58:19,390 --> 01:58:28,030 Villa is a luxury independent living, and on that basis, I would say the proposal does not 1576 01:58:28,030 --> 01:58:32,750 merit the consideration of the word villa. 1577 01:58:33,410 --> 01:58:38,310 Now, if you can do what you want to do with that thing, but at the end of the day, consider 1578 01:58:38,310 --> 01:58:48,390 this fact, and 6301 and 6303 for the last 12 months. There have been eight luxury 1579 01:58:48,390 --> 01:58:56,550 villas that have sold. And 6 of the sold, the list sold in a day and a half, the average 1580 01:58:56,550 --> 01:59:04,330 list to sale price was 101%. So when you look at the statistic of what happens in villas 1581 01:59:04,330 --> 01:59:10,910 And St. Charles, they're actively purchased, they're actually purchased by older folks. 1582 01:59:11,910 --> 01:59:16,250 They're soft users of the infrastructure, and they're just great neighbors. 1583 01:59:16,490 --> 01:59:18,470 They don't make a lot of noise, they don't make anything. 1584 01:59:18,710 --> 01:59:20,130 They're just kind of, they're just there. 1585 01:59:21,350 --> 01:59:26,770 Of the 15 years I've lived where I am, 14 of my neighbors have passed away. 1586 01:59:27,970 --> 01:59:30,530 You talk about soft users, those are soft users. 1587 01:59:31,170 --> 01:59:36,090 So I'm recommending that the Council consider this not to be the proper use of this property. 1588 01:59:36,870 --> 01:59:37,470 Thank you. 1589 01:59:47,450 --> 01:59:48,830 Name Ms. Mitchell, near Tina Motion. 1590 01:59:49,650 --> 01:59:49,810 Okay. 1591 01:59:50,030 --> 01:59:51,270 Oh, I'm sorry. 1592 01:59:51,610 --> 01:59:51,970 This is a foul. 1593 01:59:52,410 --> 01:59:52,810 No, I'm done. 1594 01:59:52,810 --> 01:59:54,750 Yeah, real quick, I want to. 1595 01:59:54,750 --> 01:59:56,430 I came up with a talk book. 1596 01:59:56,670 --> 01:59:56,970 Yes. 1597 01:59:57,190 --> 01:59:58,050 Okay, thank you. 1598 01:59:59,430 --> 01:59:59,830 So... 1599 01:59:59,830 --> 01:59:59,970 I've got... 1600 02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:29,860 I have to miss Mitchell about this briefly, and I've listened to all the residents. I know a lot of them. Many residents and miss Mitchell's words since ours, but up to each other. I have five to six subdivisions off of New Year Road. The number one issue is always been congestion, traffic, her and I have worked closely with Lieutenant Jones to put those pedometers there. The speedometers have helped. Should you have faster going? I get a lot of, when I even travel down there, I get 1601 02:00:29,860 --> 02:00:35,560 slow down and shows what it should be. It helps but it's not, it's never going to be 1602 02:00:35,560 --> 02:00:42,980 solve the issue of the traffic on Mugi Road. And this usage of right here I just don't 1603 02:00:42,980 --> 02:00:48,220 think it helps. Right now traffic lights alone is one of the biggest issues in my word 1604 02:00:48,220 --> 02:00:53,980 that we have to just some prior yearly because the different traffic each year more traffic is going 1605 02:00:53,980 --> 02:00:57,240 from 70 to 364, and you know, 1606 02:00:57,240 --> 02:00:58,940 you wrote the busy road. 1607 02:00:59,740 --> 02:01:02,800 Spring gardens, since I've been elected, 1608 02:01:03,700 --> 02:01:05,500 still wants that place to be 25 miles an hour 1609 02:01:05,500 --> 02:01:06,180 on making a road. 1610 02:01:06,420 --> 02:01:07,360 That's not gonna happen. 1611 02:01:08,160 --> 02:01:10,920 But adding more cars does not help the issue. 1612 02:01:12,220 --> 02:01:13,640 I believe the Solon Shooter family, 1613 02:01:14,380 --> 02:01:16,760 I've known, it was your brother, Mike. 1614 02:01:17,380 --> 02:01:20,900 Yeah, I really looked at the Mike, you know, he's missed. 1615 02:01:21,400 --> 02:01:23,580 And I know how much you guys value that property 1616 02:01:23,580 --> 02:01:30,220 very, very much, and I used to talk about all time.

1692 02:05:59,770 --> 02:06:02,330 There were not more than two connected in a law. 1693 02:06:02,330 --> 02:06:09,150 That's correct. Which is what is being proposed. Right. They are proposing single homes or 1694 02:06:10,730 --> 02:06:11,930 town homes 1695 02:06:11,930 --> 02:06:16,370 two stories attached with a single wall with two units. 1696 02:06:17,690 --> 02:06:20,710 So why would why would R2 1697 02:06:21,290 --> 02:06:23,230 not be 1698 02:06:23,230 --> 02:06:30,230 considered versus R3? I cannot give you that. Yeah, I can't keep you that answer tonight. It's just more intense is what I'm you know 1699 02:06:30,230 --> 02:06:37,350 Yes, but I think it would fit under R2, so I'm just trying to understand why the higher intensity. 1700 02:06:37,990 --> 02:06:39,310 I'd have to review that real quick. 1701 02:06:39,390 --> 02:06:41,310 I don't know if the applicant had to put you on the spot. 1702 02:06:41,790 --> 02:06:43,610 But while you're speaking, I can look too as well. 1703 02:06:45,130 --> 02:06:46,190 It's a good question. 1704 02:06:47,450 --> 02:06:48,330 Pardon me. 1705 02:06:50,790 --> 02:06:53,910 I've reviewed the staff report and detail. 1706 02:06:54,750 --> 02:06:59,170 And in the staff report, you'll see that they kind of looked at all the villa communities, 1707 02:06:59,170 --> 02:07:07,030 kind of in the general area and this was the zoning district that the more recent ones went 1708 02:07:07,030 --> 02:07:13,710 with is the underlying and we were just advised that it was the more appropriate one for the land 1709 02:07:13,710 --> 02:07:18,810 use here and then the PD that the preliminary development plan once that's approved that's all you 1710 02:07:18,810 --> 02:07:25,400 can build so the the zoning was really secondary because the plan that gets approved is all you're 1711 02:07:25,400 --> 02:07:29,700 to do with it. So staff kind of guided us a little bit in this direction. 1712 02:07:32,160 --> 02:07:40,400 Okay. I just am still not under staff. I'm not understanding why we're doing a higher and since she's if it would fit under art too. 1713 02:07:42,100 --> 02:07:49,480 I want to give you my gut answer on it. I think the reasoning was, I could probably pull up the staff report. 1714 02:07:49,820 --> 02:07:57,860 There is some R3 in the area. You're seeing as a comparable to what was already there, and from a zoning standpoint, we don't like to reintroduce. 1715 02:07:57,860 --> 02:07:59,360 not saying that R2 couldn't be. 1716 02:07:59,360 --> 02:08:02,040 However, those are owner occupied and not rental. 1717 02:08:02,580 --> 02:08:03,500 And there's a difference. 1718 02:08:04,160 --> 02:08:06,380 And so if you're R3 in your rental, 1719 02:08:06,460 --> 02:08:08,760 that could also introduce apartments down the road. 1720 02:08:08,920 --> 02:08:09,380 This is true. 1721 02:08:09,580 --> 02:08:12,020 So that's why I'm asking why the higher intent 1722 02:08:12,020 --> 02:08:14,260 you use if it could qualify for R2. 1723 02:08:14,580 --> 02:08:18,680 Again, R3 would also allow an individual owner occupied as well. 1724 02:08:18,900 --> 02:08:19,980 It's not just rental. 1725 02:08:20,600 --> 02:08:21,860 It does allow a Howard density. 1726 02:08:22,100 --> 02:08:23,960 It's 18 units per acre over the R2, 1727 02:08:24,360 --> 02:08:26,240 which I'm not going to do the math here. 1728 02:08:26,240 --> 02:08:35,520 But yeah, you're right, it's a higher density and the R3 I think was just chosen primarily looking at the map, zoning map R3 is in the area. 1729 02:08:36,500 --> 02:08:37,240 Maybe staff could. 1730 02:08:38,380 --> 02:08:39,120 We certainly could do that. 1731 02:08:39,120 --> 02:08:39,820 We certainly could do that. 1732 02:08:40,080 --> 02:08:45,780 Maybe staff could look into the reason is the underlying. 1733 02:08:55,020 --> 02:08:55,680 Yeah, but still. 1734 02:08:55,840 --> 02:08:57,240 I mean, those are owner occupied. 1735 02:08:57,640 --> 02:08:58,880 It's not, it's not the same. 1736 02:08:58,880 --> 02:08:59,900 It's not apples, apples. 1737 02:09:00,000 --> 02:09:01,260 In my opinion, but okay. 1738 02:09:01,260 --> 02:09:05,940 have a dictate ownership. Yeah, I understand. I understand. But it is higher 1739 02:09:05,940 --> 02:09:10,920 than 10. All right. Anybody else have anything? Thank you.

1799 02:14:19,140 --> 02:14:23,200 We indicated that, hey, this could be done at C3, however, for the property they were looking 1800 02:14:23,200 --> 02:14:26,240 we didn't believe C3 would be an appropriate land use. 1801 02:14:26,560 --> 02:14:27,440 It sits off the highway. 1802 02:14:28,180 --> 02:14:30,020 It would be entertaining additional uses, 1803 02:14:30,240 --> 02:14:31,740 which we didn't believe were essentially appropriate. 1804 02:14:32,360 --> 02:14:34,160 And also getting to look at the use itself. 1805 02:14:34,620 --> 02:14:38,220 We believe that, at least, staff believed that the storage 1806 02:14:38,880 --> 02:14:41,740 of recreational vehicle trailers are these. 1807 02:14:42,420 --> 02:14:44,080 Generally, it was a low-intense use. 1808 02:14:44,380 --> 02:14:45,880 There's not a lot of in and out traffic. 1809 02:14:46,220 --> 02:14:48,220 Yeah, you're going to come in on the weekend to pick up your trailer 1810 02:14:48,220 --> 02:14:49,800 to go to your trip or whatever. 1811 02:14:50,620 --> 02:14:51,860 But compared to other uses, 1812 02:14:51,860 --> 02:14:56,400 it's a fairly low output, they're actually the use that's in general right now, it's 1813 02:14:56,400 --> 02:14:59,960 got it for storage, for a vehicle state, a vehicle state. 1814 02:15:01,340 --> 02:15:29,740 So, in order to move this forward, a text amendment, there are three entities, as you may recall. I know we have a newer council member, but I'll go ahead and interrate that. There are three entities that can initiate text amendments to the zoning ordinance. City council, conduct staff, planning and zoning commission, conduct staff, or staff can bring things forward that, hey, we see these things. Hey, let's bring this forward to P&C Commission and have a discussion on this item. This was brought forward by staff. We identified this. 1815 02:15:30,000 --> 02:15:32,120 I think this makes sense to us. 1816 02:15:32,720 --> 02:15:35,460 P&Z Commission did discuss this initially at a planning zone 1817 02:15:35,460 --> 02:15:36,240 in commission meeting. 1818 02:15:36,660 --> 02:15:39,020 It got an unfavorable recommendation from that. 1819 02:15:39,680 --> 02:15:41,940 We were requested by the Mayor to bring this forward. 1820 02:15:42,040 --> 02:15:43,560 I think he had some clarifying questions 1821 02:15:43,560 --> 02:15:46,040 that he wanted to have discussion with the Planning 1822 02:15:46,040 --> 02:15:46,780 and Zoning Commission. 1823 02:15:46,980 --> 02:15:48,840 He came back to the Planning and Zoning Commission 1824 02:15:48,840 --> 02:15:51,000 at that July meeting where that discussion occurred. 1825 02:15:51,460 --> 02:15:53,780 In the ultimate, we did receive a recommendation, 1826 02:15:54,540 --> 02:15:56,440 unanimous recommendation from the Planning and Zoning 1827 02:15:56,440 --> 02:15:59,220 Commission to amend the text, to allow this. 1828 02:15:59,220 --> 02:16:04,320 used to be a conditional use. Sorry, I didn't point that clear fire out earlier. A conditional 1829 02:16:04,320 --> 02:16:10,280 use in C2. So move it from C3 down to C2 as a conditional use where it could be ruled 1830 02:16:10,280 --> 02:16:15,280 on, by a case-by-case basis, and attached conditions as necessary to make sure a use can 1831 02:16:15,280 --> 02:16:20,120 be compliant depending on the unique circumstances that may occur at that specific location. 1832 02:16:20,760 --> 02:16:26,040 Again, this was a public hearing. There were zero public speakers from this item and the planning 1833 02:16:26,040 --> 02:16:30,740 his own commission moved forward with a recommendation eight in favor zero against I'd be 1834 02:16:30,740 --> 02:16:36,940 happy to answer any questions. Questions at all for staff. Mr. Ratchford. Yeah, thanks 1835 02:16:36,940 --> 02:16:44,460 for clarifying that on the PNZ. I was surprised that it was unanimously against and then 1836 02:16:44,460 --> 02:16:54,680 a month later as unanimously for. I don't know if Mayor Nank can speak to if you 1837 02:16:54,680 --> 02:16:56,460 And I discussed it after that vote. 1838 02:16:56,900 --> 02:17:01,720 And he felt like, I don't know what words is in his mouth, but he thought that the presentation 1839 02:17:01,720 --> 02:17:06,080 made by staff was in his comprehensive as it should be, or clear as it should be. 1840 02:17:06,460 --> 02:17:09,520 And I think one said opportunity was provided for a clear explanation. 1841 02:17:10,680 --> 02:17:13,240 Everyone understood the change and nobody had a problem with it. 1842 02:17:13,300 --> 02:17:14,900 So I would agree with that statement. 1843 02:17:15,400 --> 02:17:17,620 It certainly appeared to me that there may be some confusion. 1844 02:17:17,960 --> 02:17:21,440 I don't want to say people work in fuse, but it's just from my staff's perspective that 1845 02:17:21,440 --> 02:17:25,180 look like may have gotten missed and the mayor asked if I would bring it back forward. 1846 02:17:27,120 --> 02:17:33,400 And there are a lot of RV storage businesses beating down the doors, just the only one. 1847 02:17:34,960 --> 02:17:36,500 We do get these from time to time. 1848 02:17:36,660 --> 02:17:40,760 I think the most that we've seen are more up in the Northern area around 370. 1849 02:17:42,480 --> 02:17:43,920 That's, for most of them are located. 1850 02:17:44,020 --> 02:17:48,440 I'd say some of the other ones that are located more south in the city are probably older ones 1851 02:17:48,440 --> 02:17:49,880 that have been there for a very long time. 1852 02:17:49,880 --> 02:17:57,500 New ones are generally go up north because we have open available I-1 and I-2 ground in which they're they're going on 1853 02:17:57,500 --> 02:17:59,200 So it's 1854 02:17:59,720 --> 02:18:05,320 an easier process.
