let's give you a really supportive community as important as this is their act. 203 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:43,000 Thank you very much. 204 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:28,000 The Board will now hear public

All right, I want to call the first name I'd just like to introduce to the community. 211 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:18,000 My newest assistant, Mr. Maris Cummins, if you would raise, there you go. Give her round of applause please. 212 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:36,000 For information, you can be found on the website or quarter. All right, Ms. Donna Mullins. 213 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:43,000 Good evening, ladies and gentlemen of the commission. My name is Donna Mullins. I live in unincorporated Ellenwood and Clayton County, Georgia. 214 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:50,000 You have eight zoning decisions to make tonight and I thought it was kind of funny that today's early voting. 215 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:55,000 So I kind of wore my support the vote there. 216 00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:01,000 I want to remind you please that the votes that you make tonight affect the very people that elected you. 217 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:09,000 We're a democracy which means that it's the government by the people, the rule of the majority. 218 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:18,000 So when you're making your decision, decisions tonight, remember, the democratic party itself, the platform is built on people over greedy corporations. 219 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:30,000 Please remember that you were elected by the people and for the people and that you're vote that you cast tonight on zoning matters will greatly affect the people that elected you. 220 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,000 Thank you very much. 221 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000 Mickey Garber. 222 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,000 It must be a Halloween speech tonight. 223 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,000 Correct, Mr. Chairman. 224 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:55,000 Man and Clark, Mickey Garber, unincorporated Rex, Georgia. 225 00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:24,000 And yes, with the Halloween season, I would certainly be hoping that all of you commissioners, or at least one commissioner, would come out with a public service announcement for everyone, every child that celebrates Halloween to make sure that they put their candy wrappers. 226 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:36,000 And the proper receptacle, because I don't want to sound cliche, but every letter bit hurts. 227 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,000 Thank you. 228 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,000 Timothy Vandale Jefferson. 229 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,000 Good evening, Chairman. 230 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,000 Distinguished board members. 231 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,000 I think that I came to your last time to reference to a beautification. 232 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,000 And I'm very, very serious. 233 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:13,000 I'm kind of disappointed that I've taken my time out as a citizen and come before you to file a complaint about certain things. 234 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:18,000 And none of the administration have attended to get back with me, I'm even called. 235 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:33,000 So therefore, as very disturbing, and after talking with several code enforcement officers throughout the community and municipalities and certain city council people, we have a unique problem. 236 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,000 These signs. 237 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,000 This is the number one corporate. 238 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:43,000 Lopez Roofing. 239 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:48,000 First washing. 240 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,000 And we buy junk cars. 241 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,000 These signs are throughout our community. 242 00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:01,000 And the reason I asked for a collaboration because they are municipalities and in the unincorporated 243 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,000 Clayton. 244 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:07,000 And they have the audacity now to put them 15, 16 feet in the air. 245 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,000 They're bringing our letters. 246 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,000 And because the leadership of this community is not paying attention. 247 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,000 I have to talk with a major McDonald. 248 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,000 I have several phone calls. 249 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,000 I'm just a regular citizen. 250 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:28,000 So as we try to transform this county's image, 251 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:35,000 beautification is the embryonic phase of sending a message to all the developers that sit behind us the day. 252 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:40,000 They pay attention to what we're doing as we move forward. 253 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:56,000 So hopefully the deputy CEO or the CEO or the major will get back with me to sit down and try to have some type of summit with all seven cities in our code enforcement directors. 254 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:04,000 They see if we can compromise a plan because as I did my due diligence, these people have never been cited a code enforcement. 255 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:09,000 And they have the audacity to put their phone in their money. 256 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:20,000 And they have never been cited, but they put their signs throughout the community, which have a tendency to not be an impiling kind of concept. 257 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:28,000 So as I take time on my business, guys, I'm very, very serious about beautification. 258 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:37,000 I think it's a critical component of making our development as we try to transform our community to move forward in this spirit of excellence. 259 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:42,000 So I'm hoping somebody will need to share a particular initiative to get back with me. 260 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,000 I'm easy to find. 261 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:54,000 I think everybody has my number that we can sit down and collaborate and try to come up with a plan that makes sense as we try to move this county forward in this spirit of excellence. 262 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,000 I thank you for all your professionalism as we move forward. 263 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,000 Thank you. 264 00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,000 I'm Mr. Jefferson. 265 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,000 I just drafted email about picking up those signs as of yesterday. 266 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,000 Thank you, sir. 267 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:12,000 Woody Galaway. 268 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,000 No. 269 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,000 You good? 270 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,000 Okay. 271 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,000 Jordan Edwards. 272 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:24,000 Pedro Vasquez. 273 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,000 Pedro Vasquez. 274 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,000 Oh, okay. 275 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,000 Madam Clerk, that concludes public comment. 276 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:37,000 Mr. Sherri, the board will now consider the consent agenda. 277 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:42,000 As I motion to accept that agenda, the approve rather the consent agenda. 278 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,000 Sir, a second. 279 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,000 Second. 280 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,000 Any questions on any of the items? 281 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,000 Here and down, those are favor aye. 282 00:24:50,000 -->

Item number 15. 287 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,000 Resolution 2024-245. 288 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:04,000 President by our chief staff attorney Charles Reed. 289 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,000 Good evening. 290 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,000 Mr. Chair. 291 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,000 Mr. Vice Chair and Board. 292 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000 Resolution 202425. 293 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:16,000 As a resolution authorizing Clayton County to resolve the supplemental nutrition assistance program 294 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:21,000 Education contract with the University of Georgia extension and established the expanded food 295 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,000 nutrition education program for 2024-2025. 296 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:29,000 It's authorizing chairman to execute the agreement and to otherwise perform annual acts necessary 297 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:34,000 to accomplish the intended resolution to authorize the chief financial officer to amend the budget 298 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:39,000 where necessary to reflect an appropriate revenue source and expense relating there to to provide an effective 299 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,000 date and for other purposes. 300 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,000 How is that motion? 301 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,000 Is there a second? 302 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,000 Second. 303 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,000 All right. 304 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,000 Any questions? 305 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,000 Yes. 306 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,000 I have one. 307 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:55,000 There is a, these funds of 39,741. 308 00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:02,000 Is this a new funding source or is this a reallocation of past funding from the program that 309 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,000 is going to be shut down? 310 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,000 Yes, sir. 311 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,000 Thank you. 312 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,000 First of all, good evening. 313 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,000 Mr. Chair. 314 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,000 Vice Chair. 315 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,000 Members of the Board. 316 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,000 Commissioner Davis. 317 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,000 These funds are reallocations from the snap-ed program. 318 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,000 So the state experienced significant budget cutbacks to the snap-ed program. 319 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:25,000 So what we've done is we've transitioned over to this new program, which carries out the same educational 320 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,000 components as snap-ed. 321 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:32,000 And in doing so, we're able to reallocate these funds and also retain our program administrator. 322 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,000 So had we not made this change? 323 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,000 We would have had to let that individual go and would not be providing the programming at all. 324 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:45,000 And the, some of the benefits that those recipients get is if they begin to complete a lot of this education, 325 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,000 they will get money added to their current snap benefits, I believe. 326 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,000 I believe so, yes, sir. 327 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,000 There's several benefits to it as is new-merated in the LR. 328 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,000 But it's, it's the same exact programming that was coming through snap. 329 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:02,000 So we're still reaching the same amount of people with no service cuts to the program at all. 330 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:03,000 Thank you. 331 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,000 Yes, sir. 332 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,000 Yes, sir. 333 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,000 Yes, sir. 334 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,000 Yes, sir. 335 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,000 Excuse me. 336 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,000 So was this a grant funded position? 337 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,000 Yes, ma'am. 338 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,000 So all the funds come through the cooperative extension to the University of Georgia. 339 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,000 So it's all funded through them. 340 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:22,000 So the person that was working with the snap-ed program, I believe, is grant funded through that grant. 341 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,000 Not through the county. 342 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,000 That's correct. 343 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,000 Okay. 344 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,000 Thank you. 345 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,000 Yes, ma'am. 346 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,000 Any other questions? 347 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,000 Those favourites. 348

00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:58,000 Designated as the community improvement tax incentive program. 364 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,000 To provide for repeal of conflicting ordinances. 365 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:06,000 Revive a codification to provide for several ability and for all the purposes. 366 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,000 So motion. 367 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,000 Some of them. 368

00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,000 I do agree with this in theory. 373 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,000 One of the issues I have is that. 374 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:24,000 After a property's been deemed blighted. 375 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,000 And that mill, mill is right on them goes up. 376 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,000 Was it sevenfold or seven times that rollback. 377 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,000 When they come into compliance. 378 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,000 And the court is deemed a bit compliance. 379 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:42,000 They are being now taxed at a fifth of what our normal citizens are being taxed. 380 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,000 I think it's a point too. 381 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,000 Of that millage. 382 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,000 And it can go on for two years. 383 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,000 My issue with that is that. 384 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:55,000 With Clayton County and the high number of investment properties that folks have. 385 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,000 I think this is a way of. 386 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:08,000 Let's just say beginning to use loopholes for tax purposes. 387 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:13,000 That last part I believe is the second to the last page. 388 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,000 Right. 389 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,000 That's 106 section eight. 390 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:24,000 So the. 391 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:35,000 So the way that this program is intended to work is that it provides a incentive. 392 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,000 For those who are not. 393 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,000 Cleaning up their property. 394 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,000 To do so. 395 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,000 If they do not then they. 396 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:52,000 They have an increase rate. 397 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:57,000 And the sooner they can get that done there is a. 398 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,000 I guess the incentive now if the four chooses not. 399 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:29,000 To have it as an incentive program and just to do it as a, I don't want to say, punitive, but to say that to remove the, the incentive portion from it, then we could rewrite that to take that portion out. And so then it would only be if the person is, you know, there, if they're, get them in the higher assessment rate and then move everything else once they come back into compliance. 400 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:50,000 Because I see in the beginning for those that are primary residents of that dwelling, we're not, we are giving me the, the option to clean that property up before it goes into a blightest as I think you're to. 401 00:30:50,000 --> 00:31:04,000 But to, to me, it says the ones that are, the ones that are deemed blighted and they're not primary owner, that means they're investment properties and I just don't believe we should be giving. 402 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:22,000 In centers to those who are chosen not to take care and clean up our, our county for our citizens and it goes back into the whole beautification, a comments that have been made as well as as well tonight. 403 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:44,000 So yes, be the, it is not intended to apply to single family residents. So we are not, so the board is not putting a blight tax on on the citizens, it is intended to apply to those who are not. 404 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:50,000 And I'm going to try to read the actual language there that. 405 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:13,000 I am missing where that is but yes, it does not apply to the, it doesn't apply to single family. 406 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:24,000 Yeah, correct. And if you do choose to remove that, which is a policy decision from this board that poor can be taken out so that there, it doesn't go back. 407 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:33,000 If there isn't an incentive, it's just if they're blighted, they get paid, they pay this amount and when they're done that goes back goes back to the regular. 408 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:37,000 And for me, I'd like that to remove what's the language say. 409 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:41,000 Shelby eligible for decrease in the rate of county. 410 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:51,000 Advalor and taxation by applying a factor of 0.2 to the county millage rate applied to the property so that such property shall be taxed and a lower millage rate. 411 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:57,000 Then the millage rate generally applied in the county or otherwise provided by general law. 412 00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,000 And that's the language that I would like to be striking from there. 413 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:06,000 We can do what we can do is remove. 414 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:12,000 We can remove our section 90-106 in its entirety. 415 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:29,000 And then recottify it so that section 107 will become 106 and we'll just change the change the title of it too. 416 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:35,000 So maybe it might make sense for me to take the board's direction. 417 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:40,000 Pull it from the agenda for today and we bring it back to you all if you're next meeting. 418 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:46,000 With with changing because obviously it will no longer be a tax incentive program or moving that part out. 419 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:54,000 Changing it to having a appropriate name, taking out the portion from 106 and bringing it back with something that you all can look at. 420 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,000 Well, do we need to vote on that? 421 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,000 Yeah, we need to vote. 422 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,000 Because we need to vote. 423 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000 Commission. 424 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,000 You made the motion correct. 425 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,000 Yes. 426 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:11,000 Motion for order that's 2024 to 53 is recented. 427 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,000 I moved that to be recented. 428 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,000 To approve it. 429 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,000 There was your motion to approve correct. 430 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,000 Right. 431 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,000 And then we've on the need of another motion. 432 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,000 It's second to that. 433 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,000 Oh, we need to second to that. 434 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,000 So is that motion. 435 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,000 Second. 436 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,000 Second. 437 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,000 Is there a second?

563 00:39:01,380 --> 00:39:03,620 That's part of this pilot. 564 00:39:03,620 --> 00:39:05,340 Is that correct, Joe? 565 00:39:05,380 --> 00:39:06,540 Pretty much it. 566 00:39:06,540 --> 00:39:12,980 Yeah, the original agreement did not talk about how the money 567 00:39:12,980 --> 00:39:14,100 was going to be spent. 568 00:39:14,100 --> 00:39:18,060 This talks about how much it is. 569 00:39:18,060 --> 00:39:24,860 It does provide, again, a two groups one that is the group 570 00:39:24,860 --> 00:39:32,740 that you all point or have a body to talk about how the plan 571 00:39:32,740 --> 00:39:38,020 is going to be done and then the technical group. 572 00:39:38,020 --> 00:39:43,060 So you all will have a voice in how the money will be spent. 573 00:39:43,060 --> 00:39:46,060 OK, because right now, no, no, no, no. 574 00:39:46,060 --> 00:39:53,500 No, it's the each party to this agreement will have a person who 575 00:39:53,500 --> 00:40:02,620 represents the respective of Marta's, your Marta appointees. 576 00:40:02,620 --> 00:40:06,540 To the attorney's point, man, the agreement anticipates the establishment 577 00:40:06,540 --> 00:40:08,340 of two committees. 578 00:40:08,340 --> 00:40:13,340 There's a governance committee which is comprised of the signature parties 579 00:40:13,340 --> 00:40:17,180 to the agreements of Marta and the municipalities. 580 00:40:17,180 --> 00:40:18,620 Marta gets two votes. 581 00:40:18,620 --> 00:40:23,220 Everyone else gets a vote and that the technical working group committee 582 00:40:23,220 --> 00:40:26,420 is there to kind of look at the overall design of the pilot 583 00:40:26,420 --> 00:40:29,420 and make recommendations to the governance committee, 584 00:40:29,420 --> 00:40:31,820 but their recommendations are non-binding. 585 00:40:31,820 --> 00:40:36,420 So the governance committee can choose to take that or discard that based 586 00:40:36,420 --> 00:40:39,260 off whatever that recommendation may be. 587 00:40:39,260 --> 00:40:44,100 To the attorney's point, also, there is a draw-down schedule in the agreement, 588 00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:47,540 which may be in your packet that kind of lays out how and when these 589 00:40:47,540 --> 00:40:51,060 monies are due to be transferred to the vendor. 590 00:40:51,060 --> 00:40:52,060 OK. 591 00:40:52,060 --> 00:40:54,060 Can you? 592 00:40:54,060 --> 00:40:55,060 Yes. 593 00:40:55,060 --> 00:40:56,060 I'm sorry. 594 00:40:56,060 --> 00:40:58,060 I want to, I have a question. 595 00:40:58,060 --> 00:40:59,060 Yeah. 596 00:40:59,060 --> 00:41:00,060 Yeah. 597 00:41:00,060 --> 00:41:01,060 Okay. 598 00:41:01,060 --> 00:41:04,780 Is this money coming from our one-sense sales tax number one? 599 00:41:04,780 --> 00:41:06,060 That's the first question. 600 00:41:06,060 --> 00:41:11,140 Do you want me to answer, as you can get an answer? 601 00:41:11,140 --> 00:41:12,140 OK. 602 00:41:13,020 --> 00:41:15,260 So as it's laid out in the agreement, 603 00:41:15,260 --> 00:41:20,260 the funding is identified as Marta Grant funds. 604 00:41:20,260 --> 00:41:23,780 And talking with the CID director, 605 00:41:23,780 --> 00:41:26,780 it was requested from the CIDs that federal transit dollars 606 00:41:26,780 --> 00:41:29,420 not be used toward this program. 607 00:41:29,420 --> 00:41:33,340 So in our estimation, that would leave system dollars 608 00:41:33,340 --> 00:41:35,140 that would be leveraged for the program. 609 00:41:35,140 --> 00:41:38,740 System dollars being those dollars that are put in by everybody 610 00:41:38,740 --> 00:41:40,300 that's a part of the Marta system. 611 00:41:40,300 --> 00:41:45,260 So to answer your question, a portion of our one-sense sales tax 612 00:41:45,260 --> 00:41:48,820 would be used to fund the pilot. 613 00:41:48,820 --> 00:41:53,180 Now, if you re-back, that was not the agreement. 614 00:41:53,180 --> 00:41:59,060 Years ago, and even when we agreed on this, so OK. 615 00:41:59,060 --> 00:42:01,540 So OK, you answered that. 616 00:42:01,540 --> 00:42:03,660 How would this benefit Clayton County? 617 00:42:03,660 --> 00:42:07,260 Because you name places that it would go from one location 618 00:42:07,260 --> 00:42:07,980 to another location. 619 00:42:07,980 --> 00:42:11,180 And how would this benefit our CIDs? 620 00:42:11,180 --> 00:42:13,100 Well, that location is in Clayton County. 621 00:42:13,100 --> 00:42:16,940 How would this benefit our CIDs? 622 00:42:16,940 --> 00:42:20,900 So as I said, the pilot will be built over in college part 623 00:42:20,900 --> 00:42:24,180 at the Convention Center and adjacent to the arena. 624 00:42:24,180 --> 00:42:27,460 Initially, the only three places this system goes 625 00:42:27,460 --> 00:42:30,620 is the arena, the Convention Center, and the Skytrain. 626 00:42:30,620 --> 00:42:34,420 So unless you're accessing one of those three, 627 00:42:35,340 --> 00:42:38,100 it's not part of the Marta system. 628 00:42:38,100 --> 00:42:42,260 It's a pilot that's being studied and may or may not be a part 629 00:42:42,260 --> 00:42:45,020 of Marta system moving forward. 630 00:42:45,020 --> 00:42:49,580 So is there an initial direct benefit to Clayton County citizens 631 00:42:49,580 --> 00:42:54,180 and some of them depending on the results of the pilot? 632 00:42:54,180 --> 00:42:58,740 There could be a further expansion that loops the airport, 633 00:42:58,740 --> 00:43:02,140 but we're talking many millions of dollars to make that happen. 634 00:43:02,140 --> 00:43:07,620 I'm using the one sense that I'll focus on paying into this. 635 00:43:07,620 --> 00:43:10,300 A portion there, obviously, yes, ma'am. 636 00:43:10,300 --> 00:43:13,900 Question, an additional question. 637 00:43:13,900 --> 00:43:19,380 Would this study include determining whether or not this pilot program 638 00:43:19,380 --> 00:43:22,380 or future program would connect to the bus rapid transit 639 00:43:22,380 --> 00:43:24,700 that has already scheduled to come to Clayton County 640 00:43:24,700 --> 00:43:29,140 and connect the bus rapid transit to the airport? 641 00:43:29,140 --> 00:43:33,980 So I'm not a 100% sure of what the additional study Marta 642 00:43:33,980 --> 00:43:35,860 is going to be conducting. 643 00:43:35,860 --> 00:43:39,300 We'll look at, I can tell you that the initial study 644 00:43:39,300 --> 00:43:42,100 that was done as part of phase one and phase two 645 00:43:42,100 --> 00:43:45,660 of the original MOU looked at the potential 646 00:43:45,660 --> 00:43:48,660 for an automated transit network or personal rapid transit 647 00:43:48,660 --> 00:43:52,460 as this is and the potential for a collector loop 648 00:43:52,460 --> 00:43:54,820 that would go basically all the way around 649 00:43:54,820 --> 00:43:57,580 HeartSville Jackson International Airport. 650 00:43:57,580 --> 00:44:02,540 When that was done, I don't think bus rapid transit was a formal thing yet 651 00:44:02,540 --> 00:44:04,380 because we were in the middle of transitioning 652 00:44:04,380 --> 00:44:07,300 from the rail discussion to bus rapid transit. 653 00:44:07,300 --> 00:44:11,420 So I don't think that initial study would have made that connection now 654 00:44:11,420 --> 00:44:14,620 if Marta looks at personal rapid transit 655 00:44:14,620 --> 00:44:19,500 and how it's going to interact with other new machinations of the system 656 00:44:19,500 --> 00:44:23,460 then they're very well maybe that looked to that, 657 00:44:23,460 --> 00:44:26,540 but we don't have anything that really lays out 658 00:44:26,540 --> 00:44:31,980 that other $3 million study and what exactly are they going to be looking at? 659 00:44:31,980 --> 00:44:36,220 Personally, I don't think we have enough information 660 00:44:36,220 --> 00:44:38,780 because from the information we have, 661 00:44:38,780 --> 00:44:42,700 I do not want to commit Clayton County to this. 662 00:44:42,700 --> 00:44:44,540 We don't know what we're committing to 663 00:44:44,540 --> 00:44:47,340 and it doesn't seem like it's going to affect our citizens. 664 00:44:47,340 --> 00:44:50,300 We want some of this and we're paying money out too. 665 00:44:50,300 --> 00:44:53,340 We want our citizens to benefit from that. 666 00:44:53,340 --> 00:44:56,460 Yes, ma'am. Well, specifically what you're committing to 667 00:44:56,460 --> 00:44:59,980 is you would be concurring to 668 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:12,000 Marta and this vendor, glideways pulling their $18 million dollars together in building a pilot to study whether or not personal rapid transit functions. 669 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:19,000 The technology that's being used is not, I don't think it's actually functional anywhere in the United States. 670 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:27,000 So we're kind of one of three or four test areas that this company and other rapid transit companies are looking at 671 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,000 to try to build these systems and see how they function. 672 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:39,000 But to your point, as far as a benefit of does this interact with the current Marta system, the answer to that is no. 673 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:43,000 And that's because it is a pilot program. 674 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:48,000 And it is very limited in what it does and what it's going to measure. 675 00:45:48,000 --> 00:46:00,000 Right? So, you know, as far as being able to gauge ridership between the convention center and the terminals at Hart'sville Jackson, we don't know that because it's not going to the terminal. 676 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:07,000 So it's it's just looking at kind of how does this technology function is there a demand for it. 677 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:15,000 Right? So, so it's going to be somewhat limited in what it tells us other than we're going to build it and see how it functions. 678 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:30,000 And actually, if I people wouldn't be using that anyway, if we were to go to the GRCC building, whatever we're going to drive, we're not going to go to the airport, take a shuttle over to the build it. 679 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:39,000 I think let me say this and my board position on the air tropless. 680 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:58,000 When we looked at this, it was simply for the purpose of creating a pilot program to see the feasibility and whether or not it would be applicable to go around the airport and connect to some other catalytic sites around the airport. 681 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:11,000 As we build out mountain view area, as we build out some of the other locations where you would get into a personal pod vehicle, and it would take you directly to that location. 682 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:27,000 So, for instance, if there's a larger scale system, you can technically get on a personal pod from their port to say the international terminal and take that directly into the mountain view area. 683 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:31,000 The mountain view area where we're going to have some major development. 684 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:41,000 And that's a nonstop system where right now you see the BRT and even the buses and trains have those stops. 685 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:46,000 This would be a nonstop, but at the end of the day, it's a test program. 686 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:56,000 Money would be allocated to see how it works, how feasible it is, and to a track, because it is catching on throughout this country. 687 00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:01,000 We went to San Diego, he says, I think it's San Diego. 688 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:08,000 Yeah, and they have one of maybe two only test tracks in the country. 689 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:14,000 And correct me from wrong, initially the discussion was on bringing a test track. 690 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:20,000 So this is kind of moving away from bringing that test track to now we study of it. 691 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:26,000 And in theory, yes, this technology was not here the last 10 years. 692 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:27,000 We understand that. 693 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,000 Technology is now here in this growing. 694 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:37,000 The question becomes, is, can we take this back to Marta and say, look, give us some more details about how we're going to go. 695 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:48,000 Because in my mind, what's going to take place if it is feasible, it will begin looping on the north side of the airport, not the south side. 696 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:59,000 And that's what I don't want that, but we need to know what are going to be some direct benefits to Clayton County, so that we can economically begin to prosper for that. 697 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:02,000 Yes, sir, but I think you're 100% correct. 698 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:07,000 And technically, this is a test track, right? 699 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:15,000 Because it's limited in its scope and it's limited in where it runs and how it runs and even to an extent the demand, right? 700 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:22,000 Because if you think about it, if you drive to an event at the arena and you park at the arena, you're just going to walk into the arena. 701 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:33,000 So, and if you're going to to the sky train to go to the airport, I don't know how many folk park at the arena to hop it to the sky train to go to the airport. 702 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:48,000 So, I think some of the questions we had just from a pure return on an investment standpoint is, okay, so if the system was to get built out at some point down the road, then for those millions of dollars that it takes to build that out, 703 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:54,000 how quick does the county or whichever mechanism funds that see some level of return on its investment? 704 00:49:54,000 --> 00:50:03,000 And as you discuss those three stopping points, one is at Fulton County, one is in city of Atlanta, and one is in Clayton County. 705 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:07,000 So, I think, well, the airport. 706 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:10,000 It's not going to the airport, so it only goes wrong. 707 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:15,000 Well, there's a sky train station at the Georgia International Convention Center. 708 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:26,000 So, it goes from the arena, parking lot at the arena, about 400 feet or so to the parking lot at the Convention Center to the sky train and back. 709 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:29,000 And again, it's a test track. 710 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:34,000 Yeah, for me, I'd like to make it for more additional information. 711 00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:38,000 Let me say this, and not to prolong the conversation. 712 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:49,000 But if the board remembers, we had a presentation some years ago, and I believe it was the idea that they came and was trying to sell us on the park. 713 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:53,000 So, it seems like now the whole thing has changed. 714 00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:59,000 And now it's connecting, I guess, College Park, City of College Park, and some others. 715 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:04,000 But I just want to remind you all to check back and look at what was presented to us some years ago. 716 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:09,000 And in contradiction, really, to what we're being presented with now. 717 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:12,000 Anyway, just, please think about that. 718 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,000 So, my question is to the board. 719 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:23,000 What we need to proceed on with a board, is there a desire to take it off, and maybe have the CID or somebody here to answer some additional questions. 720 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:24,000 Might as well go ahead. 721 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,000 Yeah, well, motion is on the floor, but I'm not. 722 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,000 I'm not supporting this right now. 723 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:37,000 As with the little information or information, actually not complete information. 724 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,000 And all this is too many questions. 725 00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,000 That's why I'm not prepared. 726 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:45,000 My desire is to remove it from the agenda. 727 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,000 Who made the motion?

calls. 1165 01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:18,000 Any source of sound to create a sound level in a residential zone or within any residential building during the hours of 11 p.m. 1166 01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:26,000 and access of 55 decibels or 10 decibels above ambient level, whichever is more. 1167 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:30,000 When measured at or outside the property boundary, 1168 01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:35,000 B, daytime no person shall permit or operate or calls. 1169 01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:43,000 Any source of sound to create a sound level in a residential zone or within a residential building during the hours of 7 a.m. 1170 01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:45,000 and 11 p.m. 1171 01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:51,000 and access of 60 decibels to 10 decibels above ambient level, whichever is more.

01:14:04,000 Clean up that particular condition as it's been our research for other standards that have been practiced around the region. 1175 01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:07,000 And those are the conditions regarding that petition. 1176 01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:10,000 I'll be happy to answer any questions that you may have for that. 1177 01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:13,000 Is the petition a present? 1178 01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:16,000 Please come forward. 1179 01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:31,000 Please take your name and whether or not you would like to reserve any minutes for a rubbed. 1180 01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:36,000 Yes, sir. 1181 01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:39,000 Jordan Edwards 46 to a piece tree road. 1182 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,000 Atlanta 30319. 1183 01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:44,000 I would like to reserve any amount that I have left over after off the end. 1184 01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:46,000 And you got to see how to hit a time. 1185 01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:47,000 Okay. 1186 01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:48,000 Five. 1187 01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:49,000 Okay. 1188 01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:50,000 Okay. 1189 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:51,000 Set a timer at five. 1190 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:53,000 Go ahead, sir. 1191 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:54,000 Sorry. 1192 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,000 Yes. 1193 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:59,000 So this is a request for the. 1194 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:10,200 Sight plan amendment, or it's sorry that the Sight plan approval and zoning modification for the 34.68 acres at 4350 East 1195 01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:16,200 Center's Church Road. I'm representing TA Realty, the applicant for these requests. And y'all 1196 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:22,920 probably be familiar with the property. This was zoned just in 2023, not long ago, with the 1197 01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:30,920 LN would pod. This specific property was specifically designated for the data center use in the 1198 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:38,920 pod approval. So the use itself is not something that we need to change tonight. We're 1199 01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:46,420 only asking for the two things that Mr. Swain already mentioned. So these are some of the conditions 1200 01:15:46,420 --> 01:15:50,920 from that LN would put approval. You see the condition number three that I've highlighted is the 1201 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:55,920 Board of Commissioners approval of the Sight plan, which is why we're here. And then also for mixed use and 1202 01:15:55,920 --> 01:16:01,920 non-residential standards, the maximum height there's 50 feet we're asking for relief from that to increase our 1203 01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:08,920 building's height. For the Sight plan, this is from the materials that y'all have already reviewed. We are 1204 01:16:08,920 --> 01:16:15,920 proposing 378,000 square feet of data center use. That's based on the amount of electricity that 1205 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:20,920 was the power has committed to providing for this specific development. They have indicated that more power may 1206 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:28,920 also be available. So if and when that power is available, we've also provided for going up to a total of 1207 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:38,920 725,000 square feet. The building itself would be two stories. If that base two is developed, then we would not need to change the 1208 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:44,920 footprint of the building. We would just populate the second floor of the building. So at two floors, the building will 1209 01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:52,920 stand 56 feet tall up to the roof. They will have elevator bulkhead and chilling equipment on top of the roof, 1210 01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:59,920 which we propose to screen from view from the ground from the roads with a parapet wall. And the top of the 1211 01:16:59,920 --> 01:17:06,920 parapet wall goes up to 76 feet. And that's why we're requesting for that zoning modification to increase the 1212 01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:14,920 height of the building from 50 to 76. It's mostly the parapet wall to screen the equipment on the roof. 1213 01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:19,920 Last thing I want to point out about the site plan is that our main entrance is on East Tanner's Church Road on the 1214 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:25,920 southwest side of the property. There is a second point of access on Williamson Road that is only four required 1215 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:34,920 emergency access vehicles. So that's going to be gated, closed, locked during all normal operations of the building. 1216 01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:41,920 We did submit a couple of renderings of the proposed development. This is a view from Williamson Road. 1217 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:49,920 So what we're going to do most of all is trying to screen it from view as much as possible with good looking vegetation trees. 1218 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:58,920 This is a view from the south from East Tanner's Church Road. Again, I want to make sure that we have as much vegetation as possible. 1219 01:17:58,920 --> 01:18:06,920 Well, trees that can be saved will be saved and where trees can not be saved when we plan. 1220 01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:14,920 Data centers themselves are very passive uses of land. There's a small office component but outside that there are just rooms of computer 1221 01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:22,920 servers. So the operations here do not involve a lot of truck trips at all during normal operations. 1222 01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:28,920 No emissions or fumes. Very few employees. That means even few automobile trips. 1223 01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:34,920 If this will be a closed water system. So once the operation is not going to use a lot of water. 1224 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:45,920 And normal operations are very quiet. So we're not going to produce a lot of loud noises. We've already submitted that conditional language to mandate that the 1225 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:50,920 North of the other is that the pipeline be adhered to. We're going to have a problem with that. 1226 01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:54,920 Then the last thing I want to point out is the tax benefit of this development. 1227 01:18:54,920 --> 01:19:01,920 The proposal that TA Realty has put forward will increase the value of the property by billions of dollars. 1228 01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:08,920 That obviously will make a big difference to the county's tax revenue to the school's tax revenue. 1229 01:19:08,920 --> 01:19:12,920 So it's a very significant number. 1230 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:16,920 Staff and as only a budget group recommended approval to you. 1231 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:21,920 There were two conditions that we wanted to make note of. One was the one about sound. 1232 01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:22,920 Mr. Jones already done that. 1233 01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:26,920 I didn't want to point out that the day time hours. 1234 01:19:26,920 --> 01:19:30,920 I heard 60 but 65 is sort of the industry standard. 1235 01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:33,920 I'm just want to make a note of that. 1236 01:19:33,920 --> 01:19:38,920 And also one to point out also that there is redundant power here at the site. 1237 01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:43,920 So in case of emergency when power is cut, which is not likely to happen. 1238 01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:48,920 But then emergency generators do kick on as an emergency situation. 1239 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:52,920 Sound level will probably be exceeded. 1240 01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:54,920 All right, second time is up. 1241 01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:59,920 At this time, you will have five minutes for a rebuttal at the end. 1242 01:19:59,920 --> 01:20:05,920 We don't have any time for those who might want to speak in favor. 1243 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:09,920 This is a town.

Anybody else? 1364 01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:23,920 Good evening, Mr. Chair and Commissioners. 1365 01:29:23,920 --> 01:29:30,920 My concern has to do, Erica Caines, unincorporated Clayton County. 1366 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:35,920 My concern is that as we are having development in the community, 1367 01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:44,920 I'm not against development overall, but I'm asking that we plan mindfully for the tax dollars 1368 01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:47,920 that are supposed to be coming from these developments. 1369 01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:54,920 There are needs in this county for things like multi-use trails for alternative transportation. 1370 01:29:54,920 --> 01:29:57,920 We're getting a bunch of new housing developments. 1371 01:29:57,920 --> 01:29:59,920 We should... 1372 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:25,000 Some how tie or earmarked the proposed tax dollars to improvements that we can see as residents of the county so that our schools get a better reputation so that our neighbors can travel without being stuck in traffic so that people who want to bike or run or walk can have safe trails to travel on and things like that. 1373 01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:38,000 So this is not in opposition. So to speak, but it is a plea for the board to let us know as residents, I'm sorry that one is going to go. 1374 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:40,000 Your time is up. Thank you. 1375 01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:44,000 All right, sir. You have five minutes for a meeting. 1376 01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:50,000 Sure. Thank you. And I will try to be quick and get to as many of those I can. 1377 01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:56,000 First of all, you know, about the use of the data center itself, the use is already approved. 1378 01:30:56,000 --> 01:31:06,000 This board approved that use in 2023. So what we hear tonight is just the site plan itself, and for that zoning modification that we requested. 1379 01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:17,000 About sound, the figures that were put forward to you by the zoning advisory group in that condition are maximums. 1380 01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:23,000 That's not are not numbers that the citizens are going to go out and that's number we're going to hit. 1381 01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:35,000 Those are maximums that most of the time we're not going to hit. Those are safeguards that are widely accepted throughout many, many municipalities and counties around the Atlanta area and nationally. 1382 01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:40,000 So those are not numbers that we made up those are standard numbers. 1383 01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:53,000 As far as the tax revenue, the building itself is specially designed to be a data center and it by itself will cost billions of dollars to develop. 1384 01:31:53,000 --> 01:32:03,000 It can't repurposing an existing building for what this site will be is not possible because of what goes into the shell of the building and the other infrastructure and there in. 1385 01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:11,000 The equipment that is put into it after development is minimum doubling the value of the property all over again. 1386 01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:21,000 So the amount that goes into building the building, that same number again is going to be invested with the technology that goes on the inside at minimum. 1387 01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:23,000 That's the conservative number. 1388 01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:30,000 As far as water, the county is going to be washing this very close as we go through site development. 1389 01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:34,000 We're going to have to check all of the county's development boxes. 1390 01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:39,000 They're not going to let us affect the water supply to any homes in the area. 1391 01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:43,000 That's not going to happen and the county wouldn't let it happen either. 1392 01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:49,000 This facility is not going to emit any sort of pollutants into the water system. 1393 01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:56,000 It doesn't emit sound, fumes, noises, gas, and oxygen materials. 1394 01:32:56,000 --> 01:33:02,000 It doesn't have any sort of chemical materials that are going to be emitted. 1395 01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:05,000 So safety of the water is also not a concern. 1396 01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:15,000 Lastly, someone mentioned Mayor Dickens in Atlanta in the Beltline and they did put in a data center ordinance around the Beltline. 1397 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:24,000 But that is a pedestrian centric walkway that is lined with shops and outdoor dining and eating. 1398 01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:26,000 That's not the situation here. 1399 01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:30,000 And this property we have a warehouse across the street on one side. 1400 01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:35,000 A warehouse very near to this and other side, 675 is our southern border. 1401 01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:40,000 So it is a different, very different sort of area. 1402 01:33:40,000 --> 01:33:47,000 The sound levels out the property right now are probably in the 50 to 60 decibels. 1403 01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:52,000 Just right now, when it's just trees, that's the ambient noise level. 1404 01:33:52,000 --> 01:34:01,000 And what we know is that we're not going to, we're willing to keep it at that ambient level that's existing right now with those centers that we gave to earlier. 1405 01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:08,000 So with that, we ask that you go to approve this night with those changes that we mentioned to sound level. 1406 01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:13,000 Also, we'd do ask you to increase the height maximum to 76 feet. 1407 01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:15,000 Thank you sir. 1408 01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:20,000 Commissioner Reyes. 1409 01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:22,000 Yeah, motion force. 1410 01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:24,000 We're going to question questions. 1411 01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:25,000 Any questions?

Here on behalf of the applicant. 1633 01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:53,000 I'm also joining this evening behind me by Scott McGarty and Will Greer, who are with BBP chill, who represent the applicant. 1634 01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:59,000 Do a short presentation for you all this evening just to hit the highlights for you. We'll get that up here in just a moment. 1635 01:46:00,000 --> 01:46:10,000 But essentially, essentially, what we're requesting is a conditional use permit to allow for a warehouse that's capable of cold storage, but also ambient temperature storage. 1636 01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:19,000 We're looking to build the warehouse in an established 352 acre master plan industrial part. 1637 01:46:19,000 --> 01:46:27,000 And so we think our use will fit right in with the surrounding industrial uses that are already established in the area. 1638 01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:34,000 Yeah, just one moment. 1639 01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:45,000 So just a moment while we get the presentation pulled up. 1640 01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:48,000 Essentially to elaborate on our request though. 1641 01:46:48,000 --> 01:46:56,000 Some other businesses that are already in the industrial part include Brandsmark USA at Lann of Distribution Center, 1642 01:46:56,000 --> 01:47:12,000 ATL Freight.com, FedEx Ground, CXO logistics and many more similar distribution style uses that we're looking to basically model ourselves after. 1643 01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:18,000 So the picture you see on the top of your screen, that's the property, the yellow hair was pointing to it. 1644 01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:26,000 I think you see in purple going to the north and northwest, that is the heavy industrial zoning district that the county has placed on this area. 1645 01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:30,000 That's really showing where this industrial park is located. 1646 01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:40,000 We are kind of in the back end of that industrial park, one of the last, if not the last parcel to be established with the industrial use here. 1647 01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:47,000 The picture you see on the bottom, you can see the parcel highlighted with a location marker there. 1648 01:47:47,000 --> 01:47:52,000 And if you look just to the north, you can see all the other warehouses that are kind of already in that industrial park. 1649 01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:56,000 So again, not introducing anything new as far as general use. 1650 01:47:56,000 --> 01:48:02,000 But what is unique is that we would have the combination of cold storage and ambient temperature storage. 1651 01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:12,000 So zooming in here, I've overlaid a site plan onto the parcel so you can kind of get a sense of how this would lay, how it would fit into the area. 1652 01:48:12,000 --> 01:48:25,000 Again, we have all of these warehouses kind of coming down here, we would just kind of be the termination warehouse for the industrial park. 1653 01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:30,000 Kind of covered the zoning already before we pulled this up someone to ahead and skip this side. 1654 01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:35,000 I've zoomed in a little bit on the site plan here to highlight a couple things to you all. 1655 01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:41,000 We were going to have copious amounts of landscaping around the perimeter of the property. 1656 01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:47,000 You can see the trees that we've shown around the parking lot as well as to the east. 1657 01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:54,000 And we want to highlight the east because as you saw on the zoning map, there are some residential properties immediately to the east. 1658 01:48:54,000 --> 01:49:01,000 And we want to make sure that we're doing all we can to protect those individuals when we bring this use. 1659 01:49:01,000 --> 01:49:09,000 So the original condition that was in packet stated that we needed to have a 40 foot undisturbed buffer. 1660 01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:18,000 And the reason we're looking to strike that condition per staff's advice is that we want to do a 50 foot buffer. 1661 01:49:19,000 --> 01:49:24,000 But we want to put in additional trees and a six foot tall opaque fence. 1662 01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:26,000 We couldn't do that if the buffer was undisturbed. 1663 01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:35,000 And so we want to increase it and make it a very nice, very attractive buffer and and provide the additional protection that comes from that fence. 1664 01:49:35,000 --> 01:49:46,000 One other thing to note that's not quite as easy to see on this plan is that there's a 30 foot drop from the base of where the fence will be down to where the property will sit. 1665 01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:53,000 So what that means is the property is going to be below the site line of those individuals who have their backyard right there. 1666 01:49:53,000 --> 01:50:02,000 With that drop in in topography with the trees and with the fence we think that we have a really effective screen between our proposed use and those uses. 1667 01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:13,000 So we think that this is going to not have not have a huge impact on the folks who are living nearby. 1668 01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:16,000 Here are just some elevations for you to show what we're proposing. 1669 01:50:16,000 --> 01:50:36,000 We're showing a really nice building here. We've got a couple offices on either corner of the proposed warehouse where folks will be able to come in do their business as well as process delivery and things like that. 1670 01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:53,000 And I think that's all I've got for you all this evening one thing I want to note about our our buffer is that we we are increasing what staff has recommended but we're also the same time complying with the zoning ordinance. 1671 01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:56,000 The 40 foot was a little shy. 1672 01:50:56,000 --> 01:51:03,000 So we brought it up so that we're meeting that standard as well as able to install all of that additional screening. 1673 01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:07,000 But with that I'll take any questions y'all might have. 1674 01:51:07,000 --> 01:51:25,000 Okay at this time we're going to have a public here and on this matter is that anyone here who would like to speak in favor of applicants request anybody like to speak in favor of anybody in opposition to anybody opposed. 1675 01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:35,000 So you got two minutes as if there's anything you would like to ask commissionaries. 1676 01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:40,000 A motion. 1677 01:51:40,000 --> 01:51:42,000 Nobody spoke. 1678 01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:54,000 Okay, I would like to make a motion for BLC for item BLC 2408-04442 or. 1679 01:51:54,000 --> 01:52:10,000 Approval but striking the condition from staff for the modification from the developer. 1680 01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:15,000 That's clear enough. 1681 01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:19,000 Is there a second second any other questions. 1682 01:52:19,000 --> 01:52:21,000 Those are favorite. 1683 01:52:21,000 --> 01:52:22,000 I opposed. 1684 01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:27,000 Yes, you know. 1685 01:52:27,000 --> 01:52:36,000 Next item is item 38. 1686 01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:43,000 Chairman of commissioners want to note item 38 is BLC 2408-04443. 1687 01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:48,000 This is a future land use map amendment for property located at 6857. 1688 01:52:48,000 --> 01:53:01,000 This is also associated with item number 39 which is BLC 2408-0444 for rezoning for the same property. 1689 01:53:01,000 --> 01:53:16,000 When I made mention and note that the applicant is mentioned they would like to defer this particular request or request until the November 19th Board of Commissioners meeting for for the consideration. 1690 01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:21,000 No, dear for me need to table it until the next meeting. 1691 01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:22,000 Yes. 1692 01:53:22,000 --> 01:53:25,000 Commissioner Reeves how would you like
