00:01:48,450 --> 00:01:50,090

00:01:53,450 --> 00:01:55,430

22
00:01:55,730 --> 00:01:57,550
Are there any changes necessary to the agenda?

00:01:58,690 --> 00:02:00,550
Hearing none, the agenda is approved.

24
00:02:01,030 --> 00:02:02,530

25
00:02:02,790 --> 00:02:07,410

26
00:02:07,410 --> 00:02:09,710
and now please stand and raise your right hand.

27
00:02:09,710 --> 00:02:12,010
I will not allow you to speak unless you're sworn in.

28
00:02:17,020 --> 00:02:18,000
Hold a moment, sir.

29
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:25,080
Sir, I didn't speak. You want to stand? No, I'm talking to the people in front of you.

30
00:02:31,130 --> 00:02:32,510
Sir, are you here to speak this evening?

31
00:02:33,290 --> 00:02:33,490
Yes.

32
00:02:33,730 --> 00:02:39,130
Okay. I'll just ask that you sign in at the sheet here at the front, but we're going to get sworn in here now.

33
00:02:39,290 --> 00:02:41,590
So please stand and raise your right hand.

34
00:02:44,010 --> 00:02:49,150
Do you swear or affirm that the testimony you give to this board is truthful? If so, say I do.

35
00:02:50,090 --> 00:02:50,710
Thank you.

00:02:51,550 --> 00:02:54,530

39
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,780
Staff who we received any public comment?

40
00:03:00,140 --> 00:03:00,900
No, Mr. Chairman.

41
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:02,240
Excellent.

42
00:03:02,660 --> 00:03:03,760
Next item is unfinished business.

43
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,900
There is no unfinished business, so we'll move right on to new business.

44
00:03:07,180 --> 00:03:16,640
Item D1 application 2026-0403 for the property located at 1311 Lancaster Avenue, a variance

45
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:17,060
application.

46
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:18,480
Staff, I'm ready for your report.

47
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:24,720
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. As you said, application number 2026-0403. The application type is

48
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,840
a variance for an accessory structure for the square footage. The application is Kevin

49
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:34,020
Thompson for Mark Osment. The property is located at 1311 Lancaster Avenue. It consists

50
00:03:34,020 --> 00:03:39,500
of one parcel, zoned O-R-D-N, Old Reynoldsburg Neighborhood District, and the variance

51
00:03:39,500 --> 00:03:47,640
section is 1105-05-A-V-I-I-5. Before you is an aero of the subject site. Here

52
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,620
Here is an image of the floodplain and floodway located on the applicant's parcel.

53
00:03:52,460 --> 00:03:54,380
Here's the zoning map of the subject site.

54
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,180
Here's a Google Street view of the site off of Lancaster Avenue.

55
00:03:58,700 --> 00:04:02,960
The parcel is 0.56 acres and currently contains a dwelling detached single family.

56
00:04:03,500 --> 00:04:07,800
The existing home was built in 1900 and there is significant floodplain and floodway

57
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:08,360
on the parcel.

58
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:14,380
The applicant is requesting a variance to section 11.055A VII-5 to allow an additional

59
00:04:14,380 --> 00:04:17,180
206 square feet for an accessory structure on the site.

60
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:20,520
There is currently no accessory structures on the subject site.

61
00:04:21,940 --> 00:04:26,320
Here is a plan provided by the applicant showing the location of the proposed new garage in

62
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,180
the rear yard along with the location of the existing home.

63
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:34,500
The existing house is 2088 square feet.

64
00:04:34,740 --> 00:04:41,580
Based on section 1105,05A, VII 5, only 50% of the principal structure square footage

65
00:04:41,580 --> 00:04:47,260
is permitted for accessory-structured square footage, which is 1,044 square feet.

66
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:52,420
The applicant is proposing an accessory structure that would be 1,250 square feet, which is

67
00:04:52,420 --> 00:04:54,460
206 square feet over the permitted area.

68
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,220
The applicant states that their hardship is due to not having a garage.

69
00:04:58,940 --> 00:05:03,200
The owners want and need a garage that holds four cars with sizable storage space and

70
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,780
has a workshop for personal hobbies.

71
00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:08,820
The applicant states that a standard garage that conforms to the current zoning standard

72
00:05:08,820 --> 00:05:11,000
does not large enough for these uses.

73
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,360
Here is the variance findings of facts.

74
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:22,780
The applicant is requesting a variance from section 11.05.05AVII5, which states, in residential

75
00:05:22,780 --> 00:05:27,520
districts, a lot coverage of accessory structures shall not be more than 50% of the finish

76
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:28,900
floor area of the main structure.

77
00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:31,860
The principal building is 2,088 square feet.

78
00:05:32,260 --> 00:05:37,320
The permitted accessory structure, square footage is 1,044 square feet.

79
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:42,180
the applicant is proposing a 1,250 square foot accessory structure which exceeds the permitted

80
00:05:42,180 --> 00:05:47,480
accessory structure square footage for the site by 206 square feet. The variance requested from

81
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:54,240
the applicant is to allow a garage to be 60% of the house space which would be 1,252.8 square feet

82
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,260
and the variance factor is one of the criteria for review is that the minimum variance is

83
00:05:58,260 --> 00:06:02,180
requested to accomplish the purpose of the variance. The applicant is not requesting the

84
00:06:02,180 --> 00:06:06,060
minimum variance necessary but more than what is needed. Therefore the applicant is not

85
00:06:06,060 --> 00:06:09,400
requesting the minimum variance for section 110911DVI.

86
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,780
Staff also believes that based on the applicant's statement of hardship and evaluation of the

87
00:06:13,780 --> 00:06:17,600
factors, the variance request appears to be a matter of convenience that is self-created.

88
00:06:18,260 --> 00:06:22,180
The applicant has not described in their documents how other possible alternatives

89
00:06:22,180 --> 00:06:26,700
or solutions were evaluated such as building an attached garage onto the primary structure.

90
00:06:27,540 --> 00:06:30,940
And the applicant has also not explained how the site is unique and how granting

91
00:06:30,940 --> 00:06:34,880
the variance would not confer them special privileges that are unduly denied by this

92
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,480
code to other properties within the city.

93
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,700
Finally, staff believes that granting this variance

94
00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:41,480
would set a precedent for future residential

95
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,080
accessory structures being built.

96
00:06:43,620 --> 00:06:44,960
Based on these reasons listed above

97
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,160
and in the project review, staff recommends denial

98
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,160
of the variance request, Mr. Chairman.

99
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:50,920
Thank you.

100
00:06:51,220 --> 00:06:52,760
At this time, I now invite the applicant

101
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:53,600
to come to the podium

102
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,060
and you may give whatever presentation you wish.

103
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,500
The board may have some questions for you.

104
00:06:58,740 --> 00:07:00,720
I'll just ask that you please speak into the microphone.

105
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:02,740
Please adjust the microphone if you need to

106
00:07:02,740 --> 00:07:03,880
so that you can speak into it

107
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,240
and please state your name and address for the record before doing so.

108
00:07:08,420 --> 00:07:08,820
Thank you.

109
00:07:18,810 --> 00:07:19,150
Hello.

110
00:07:19,510 --> 00:07:20,370
My name is Mark Osmond.

111
00:07:20,590 --> 00:07:23,990
I'm obviously the owner of the property that we're trying to develop here.

112
00:07:24,910 --> 00:07:28,970
Basically, we're just trying to get a little more room for ourselves and our stuff.

113
00:07:29,550 --> 00:07:34,730
We want to duplicate the house in itself, the sense of the structure, how it looks,

114
00:07:35,330 --> 00:07:36,570
how the materials are used.

115
00:07:37,270 --> 00:07:37,830
We just want it.

116
00:07:38,310 --> 00:07:40,630
And you can see we're back a ways with this.

117
00:07:40,630 --> 00:07:43,390
so it's not like it's impeding the views.

118
00:07:44,010 --> 00:07:45,730
There was another point of our issue

119
00:07:45,730 --> 00:07:47,490
was that making sure our neighbors and us

120
00:07:47,490 --> 00:07:50,090
still had that nice view in the backyard

121
00:07:50,090 --> 00:07:51,450
where we can see the creek and stuff.

122
00:07:51,690 --> 00:07:53,090
And that's why we're going along.

123
00:07:54,130 --> 00:07:57,290
Proposal was to attach to the garage, to the house,

124
00:07:57,350 --> 00:08:00,130
but then in our limits, our access to the backyard.

125
00:08:00,610 --> 00:08:02,330
And we do a lot of stuff in the backyard.

126
00:08:02,470 --> 00:08:03,330
We do a lot of entertaining,

127
00:08:03,570 --> 00:08:05,430
and we have family and friends that come by.

128
00:08:06,210 --> 00:08:09,110
So basically we're just asking for another 206 feet,

129
00:08:09,150 --> 00:08:09,890
whatever that might be.

130
00:08:09,890 --> 00:08:15,930
I'm not sure what it was just to try and get the room that we need for three vehicles

131
00:08:15,930 --> 00:08:18,330
I got a tractor I got a you know

132
00:08:18,330 --> 00:08:21,710
We got a half an acre land I got a zero turn mower that I got in there

133
00:08:21,710 --> 00:08:27,450
So stuff I'm storing that I need to store inside and not outside underneath the tarp which I have right now and

134
00:08:29,030 --> 00:08:30,050
That's basically it

135
00:08:31,670 --> 00:08:33,310
Thank you. Thank you for your time

136
00:08:34,110 --> 00:08:39,110
Are you sir if you would yeah, please say sorry, I'm sure we're gonna have some questions for you sure

137
00:08:39,890 --> 00:08:42,830
I'll just say, you know, I'm sympathetic to your situation.

138
00:08:43,050 --> 00:08:46,690
My house is 50 years older than yours and I live in your neighborhood, so I understand

139
00:08:46,690 --> 00:08:48,130
the issue of not having a garage.

140
00:08:48,570 --> 00:08:49,190
I don't have one either.

141
00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:56,490
But I will say here that just understand that when you ask for a variance in the way that

142
00:08:56,490 --> 00:09:02,070
yours is stated, you're essentially asking us to rewrite the law, which is not a power

143
00:09:02,070 --> 00:09:03,270
that this board has.

144
00:09:03,270 --> 00:09:11,190
So, the point of the variance factors which are our only sole decision making here as

145
00:09:11,190 --> 00:09:17,130
required by the zoning code is to give us a framework which to understand your request.

146
00:09:17,650 --> 00:09:27,710
And we are required to analyze your submission and see if it meets those variance findings.

147
00:09:27,710 --> 00:09:35,210
And, you know, particularly here in your application, when you speak of, you know, needs or wants

148
00:09:35,210 --> 00:09:41,550
or things like that, you know, what we would typically would like to hear is a demonstration

149
00:09:41,550 --> 00:09:48,990
on why it's absolutely necessary, why you couldn't use your structure existing property

150
00:09:48,990 --> 00:09:53,530
for its intended purpose, which is a residence in a residential neighborhood if this variance

151
00:09:53,530 --> 00:10:01,330
variance wasn't granted. That's the hardship element. So, based on your application, I'm

152
00:10:01,330 --> 00:10:07,230
not necessarily convinced that you have met the hardship requirement, so perhaps you could

153
00:10:07,230 --> 00:10:12,590
go into that in a little more detail. I mean, I'd like to grant you a garage, but it seems

154
00:10:12,590 --> 00:10:15,790
like if you just asked for one that was a little smaller, a variance wouldn't even

155
00:10:15,790 --> 00:10:16,030
be necessary.

156
00:10:16,570 --> 00:10:19,690
Sure. It may we do, we turn around and we go back and we redo this, you know,

157
00:10:20,270 --> 00:10:26,670
the graphics and maybe we bring it down and because you know that's what we need to do is we need to get up that 200 feet.

158
00:10:27,830 --> 00:10:35,690
Yeah, I mean it looks like what staff said I think 1044 square feet would be the allowable maximum so you know if you

159
00:10:35,690 --> 00:10:39,230
just came down just a little bit on the garage you wouldn't even need to be here.

160
00:10:39,610 --> 00:10:40,430
Okay, we'll do that.

161
00:10:42,980 --> 00:10:44,240
Is there any other questions for the applicant?

162
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:51,880
Now, well, that having been said, sir, you know, would you like to withdraw your application

163
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,640
at this time?

164
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:59,800
Based on the applicant's testimony then, I understand this application would like to

165
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:00,260
be withdrawn.

166
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:02,520
And I so move.

167
00:11:02,780 --> 00:11:03,040
Second.

168
00:11:03,700 --> 00:11:04,220
Second.

169
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:05,700
Second by Mr. Benner.

170
00:11:05,900 --> 00:11:06,780
Staff, please call the roll.

171
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:09,680
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

172
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:10,940

173
00:11:11,460 --> 00:11:11,720
Yes.

174
00:11:12,060 --> 00:11:12,680
Mr. Twalmo.

175
00:11:13,060 --> 00:11:13,320
Yes.

176
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:13,520
Yes.

177
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:14,500
Mr. Brask.

178
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:15,180
Yes.

179
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:17,440
Ms. Barnhart.

180
00:11:17,700 --> 00:11:17,960
Yes.

181
00:11:18,420 --> 00:11:18,940
Mr. Benner.

182
00:11:19,140 --> 00:11:19,340
Yes.

183
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:20,160
Mr. First.

184
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:20,800
Yes.

185
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:21,500
Thank you, sir.

186
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:22,000
Thank you.

187
00:11:22,680 --> 00:11:30,640
Next item is D2 application 2026-0453 for conditional use application.

188
00:11:30,940 --> 00:11:31,160
Staff.

189
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,180
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

190
00:11:34,560 --> 00:11:35,040
One second.

191
00:11:39,910 --> 00:11:41,950
You said the application is for conditional use.

192
00:11:42,090 --> 00:11:45,250
The application number is 2026 0453.

193
00:11:45,250 --> 00:11:48,290
The application type is for a conditional use for a child daycare center.

194
00:11:48,910 --> 00:11:54,290
The applicant is Niba Valentine and Omar Neuro of J. Hawkins Learning Academy for Blacklic

195
00:11:54,290 --> 00:11:55,710
Properties Bishoff Company.

196
00:11:56,170 --> 00:12:01,050
Properties located at 6549 East Livingston Avenue consist of one parcel and is currently

197
00:12:01,050 --> 00:12:02,850
zoned CC Community Commercial.

198
00:12:03,450 --> 00:12:07,570
Before you is an aerial of the subject site and the parcel is 4.12 acres.

199
00:12:08,490 --> 00:12:10,150
Here's a zoning map of the site.

200
00:12:10,950 --> 00:12:13,570
Here's a Google Street view of the subject tenant space.

201
00:12:13,570 --> 00:12:17,150
The tenant space was previously used as a child daycare center.

202
00:12:17,610 --> 00:12:22,210
The applicant is requesting to use the subject tenant space as a child daycare center, which

203
00:12:22,210 --> 00:12:25,130
is a conditional use in the CC Community Commercial Zoning District.

204
00:12:25,650 --> 00:12:27,930
Here's a closer view of the front of the tenant space.

205
00:12:28,330 --> 00:12:32,930
The applicant intends to operate a daycare from 6 a.m. to 6 30 p.m. Monday through

206
00:12:32,930 --> 00:12:37,210
Friday with the anticipated total number of employees of 8 to 10 employees with

207
00:12:37,210 --> 00:12:39,130
a maximum of 98 children.

208
00:12:40,110 --> 00:12:42,350
Here's the site plan provided by the applicant.

209
00:12:42,350 --> 00:12:44,330
On it a playground and dumpster

210
00:12:45,110 --> 00:12:50,870
Area are drawn in the applicant states that the outdoor playground area is to the right of the rear exit door

211
00:12:50,870 --> 00:12:55,330
And that it is free from traffic making the move me moving of children's safe

212
00:12:55,330 --> 00:13:00,530
However staff has concerns considering the playground area is partially identified over concrete

213
00:13:00,530 --> 00:13:05,170
It is unclear how this area will be used only for the playground area and finally

214
00:13:05,170 --> 00:13:11,130
How will traffic move in the rear of the building ensuring that there are no loading or parking spaces near the outdoor play area?

215
00:13:11,650 --> 00:13:13,670
meeting one of the additional conditions required

216
00:13:13,670 --> 00:13:14,910
for child daycare centers.

217
00:13:15,710 --> 00:13:17,790
Here is an image of the rear of the tenant space

218
00:13:18,330 --> 00:13:20,250
with the applicant proposing a dumpster

219
00:13:20,250 --> 00:13:21,810
to be located on the grass

220
00:13:22,430 --> 00:13:25,510
within the gated closed-off area near the ballard.

221
00:13:25,670 --> 00:13:28,010
Staff has concerns about how the refuse

222
00:13:28,010 --> 00:13:30,830
will be safely accessed along with how other traffic

223
00:13:30,830 --> 00:13:32,430
in the rear of the site will be utilized.

224
00:13:32,990 --> 00:13:34,930
The applicant states that they will not be undergoing

225
00:13:34,930 --> 00:13:37,290
any inside or outside building modifications.

226
00:13:38,170 --> 00:13:40,330
Here is a list of the conditional use standards.

227
00:13:41,610 --> 00:13:45,830
Here is a list of the child care standards that also need to be met for the proposed

228
00:13:45,830 --> 00:13:46,710
conditional use.

229
00:13:47,210 --> 00:13:51,090
Child daycare center found in section 110513H of the code.

230
00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:56,310
Staff has reviewed the application and based on the information provided, there does not

231
00:13:56,310 --> 00:14:00,150
appear to be enough information provided to show that the additional regulations

232
00:14:00,150 --> 00:14:06,550
for a child care center found in section 110513H has been met along with issues

233
00:14:06,550 --> 00:14:10,730
regarding the site plan and dumpster location and meeting all requirements of the zoning code.

234
00:14:11,250 --> 00:14:15,690
Staff has concerns regarding the location of the outdoor play area in relation to its proximity

235
00:14:15,690 --> 00:14:21,210
to other loading areas due to it being located behind the building where loading spaces generally

236
00:14:21,210 --> 00:14:26,330
tend to be located along with providing more information about the outdoor play area whether

237
00:14:26,330 --> 00:14:30,910
new or existing to ensure there is adequate fencing so that children are safe due to this

238
00:14:30,910 --> 00:14:35,810
area having vehicular circulation in the area and the playground area being shown to be

239
00:14:35,810 --> 00:14:38,290
located over paved areas of the site.

240
00:14:38,930 --> 00:14:44,750
Staff also needs the applicant to clarify and provide, sorry, the required information regarding

241
00:14:44,750 --> 00:14:49,810
the new dumpster location since it is currently shown over a grassed area, however it should

242
00:14:49,810 --> 00:14:54,910
be located on a hard surface and if the applicant intends to increase the impervious surface

243
00:14:54,910 --> 00:14:59,070
on the subject site, staff needs to ensure that the maximum impervious surface area

244
00:14:59,070 --> 00:14:59,630
is not exceeded.

245
00:15:00,020 --> 00:15:17,100
Or variance could be needed. The applicant also needs to address in their statement how condition 11-05-13-H-I is met, and while the site appears to meet this requirement based on the city's GIS aerial view, staff would like the applicant to address this in their application to ensure all requirements are met.

246
00:15:17,100 --> 00:15:21,540
Therefore, based on the reasons mentioned above and in the project review of the staff

247
00:15:21,540 --> 00:15:28,240
report along with Section 110513H and conditional use standards, Section 110913D, the IEI of

248
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,440
the zoning code having not been met, staff recommends denial of the conditional use application

249
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:33,840
for a child daycare center.

250
00:15:34,420 --> 00:15:38,420
Staff would be amenable to placing the application on hold if the Board chose to

251
00:15:38,420 --> 00:15:38,800
do so.

252
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,000
Please know that if the application is placed on hold, the applicant would

253
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,760
have to come back to the Board within 60 days of this meeting for determination

254
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,380
unless the applicant agreed to place his application on hold.

255
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,380
The latest meeting in this case could come back before the Board

256
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,360
without the applicant agreeing to the application being put on hold

257
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,380
this September 17th, 2026, Mr. Chairman.

258
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:00,660
Thank you.

259
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,500
I now invite the applicant to please come to podium at this time

260
00:16:03,500 --> 00:16:06,320
and I'll just ask that you please state your name and address for the record.

261
00:16:10,550 --> 00:16:12,490
You're welcome to give whatever presentation you like.

262
00:16:12,490 --> 00:16:21,000
please I don't know my English maybe not that clear because I don't really speak

263
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:28,440
the American English but what I really understood from what is on there on the

264
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:38,800
staff denial something of that I'm what I can I can recommend is that I

265
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:48,720
I may see how you can redress all these issues and then concerning the trash, where the trash

266
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:56,120
is located is where there's normally the trash service that comes by to pick the trash.

267
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:03,660
That one that was located there is just like a temporary location for trash because the

268
00:17:03,660 --> 00:17:09,560
trash service or usually comes in the in the mornings on Wednesdays to pick out

269
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:16,200
trash at the phone and then concerning the playground I believe that's an

270
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:22,780
existing daycare that was being approved by the City of Reynoldsburg. The same day

271
00:17:22,780 --> 00:17:27,860
I'm a playgrounder is the is the same one we're gonna use. That's an existing

272
00:17:27,860 --> 00:17:36,360
daycare that we just, I'm moving my existing daycare from Lancaster to there. So the daycare

273
00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:41,520
that was existing there, the lady no longer wants to operate the daycare. So I wish to

274
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:47,140
do a transfer of my daycare to that location. I don't change anything. Nothing changes there.

275
00:17:48,100 --> 00:17:50,580
It's just for me to go and start operating there.

276
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:59,540
Thank you. I think all that makes sense. But as I read staff's report, I think you could

277
00:17:59,540 --> 00:18:05,620
probably solve these problems just with some photos of the existing site. Ms. Bathay, could

278
00:18:05,620 --> 00:18:11,200
you go back to the photo that shows the ballards, please? Yeah, that one there. So our main

279
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:17,340
concern here, and we have rejected daycare applications based on these concerns, is that

280
00:18:17,340 --> 00:18:21,440
you see those tracks that, if you look overhead, you see those tracks there. There's clearly

281
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:26,420
vehicular circulation here. Vehicles come through, right? And if, based on your application,

282
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:32,220
it looked like the playground was in that grassy area there where vehicles clearly

283
00:18:32,220 --> 00:18:38,060
come through. So I think you could solve both problems showing where the trash is going

284
00:18:38,060 --> 00:18:42,000
to be and where the playground is going to be just with some photos of the existing

285
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:42,320
site.

286
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:51,200
I think where I located the playground is after the grass. It's found towards the trees

287
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,620
there. It's not found in front of the grass.

288
00:18:54,900 --> 00:19:01,400
Yeah, that's just not really clear from the materials that you provided. So I think a

289
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:08,580
efficient solution here would be to, if you'd be willing, is to just place this application

290
00:19:08,580 --> 00:19:12,740
on hold and then you could just snap some photos of where the playground is going to be where the

291
00:19:12,740 --> 00:19:18,440
trash is going to be and you know perhaps talk to staff see if they have any additional concerns

292
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:24,340
and if that would be sufficient for their purposes. Okay so. Chair first. I think I have a few

293
00:19:24,340 --> 00:19:29,680
questions that might need clarified here. Go ahead. Sir my name is Mr. Schuch. I'm the

294
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:35,020
city attorney here in Manelsburg. I'm quite familiar with this property and with the

295
00:19:35,020 --> 00:19:38,060
commercial landlord, as I'm sure is Mr. Benner.

296
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:44,020
And you may not be as familiar with him. It

297
00:19:44,020 --> 00:19:49,900
would be helpful if Mr. Bischoff could come in and explain how it is that this site layout

298
00:19:49,900 --> 00:19:58,340
is going to work. Because part of the problem here is that the proposed playground is

299
00:19:58,340 --> 00:20:04,700
not located immediately to the rear of your tenant space, which means that the children

300
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:10,140
would need to walk a significant distance behind other businesses in their leases to get to that

301
00:20:10,140 --> 00:20:15,620
playground space. One other issue that we would hope to get clarification from Mr. Bischoff on

302
00:20:15,620 --> 00:20:23,480
is that in the past the city has cited Mr. Bischoff for his refusal to construct dumpster

303
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:29,420
enclosures for dumpsters at the rear of that property and instead of actually constructing

304
00:20:29,420 --> 00:20:42,240
dumpster enclosures. He just removed the dumpsters and then stuck it to the tenants to fill up regular-sized trash cans, which were overfilling, and then it was becoming kind of a littering problem in that area as well.

305
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:51,960
So when we look at the rear of this property as it relates to the proposed application that you submitted, you might not be in the best position to be able to answer all these questions.

306
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:58,040
Mr. Bischoff probably would, so if we do continue this hearing, I would ask that Mr. Bischoff

307
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,320
be here to answer those questions so that we can get some clarification on what he's

308
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:07,400
actually intending to do with the rear of this property. We've had difficulty, and that's

309
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,700
putting it mildly, with him in the past.

310
00:21:12,030 --> 00:21:12,710
Okay, sir.

311
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,920
Obviously, you're not Mr. Bischoff. You can't speak for him. But is there a period

312
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:25,360
of time that you'd like to place this application on hold for? We typically don't like them

313
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:35,320
to be open-ended. So would something like bringing this back to us in no more than 90 days be

314
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:35,620
suitable?

315
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:37,180
Yes, sir.

316
00:21:37,700 --> 00:21:37,860
Okay.

317
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,680
Give me one second, Mr. Chairman.

318
00:21:52,620 --> 00:21:56,100
While staff is conferring their records, are there any additional questions for the

319
00:21:56,100 --> 00:21:57,720
applicant while we have an open meeting?

320
00:22:05,770 --> 00:22:09,710
This is the calendar, Mr. Chairman, for the rest of the year. If there is a specific

321
00:22:09,710 --> 00:22:16,070
date that you and the applicant can agree upon we're happy to. Yeah is there a

322
00:22:16,070 --> 00:22:20,030
specific date here that worked for you the dates in orange I'm not sure yeah I

323
00:22:20,030 --> 00:22:22,790
guess it does show orange there on the screen those are the dates of our

324
00:22:22,790 --> 00:22:29,290
meetings. Please know that you have to turn in anything additional three weeks

325
00:22:29,290 --> 00:22:33,770
prior to so the August 20th meeting that you see which is the next one the

326
00:22:33,770 --> 00:22:38,770
deadline for that was today so the next possible one after that is

327
00:22:38,770 --> 00:22:44,390
September 3rd the deadline to submit stuff for that packet would be August 13th

328
00:22:47,820 --> 00:22:51,440
okay if I'm a this mr. Benner

329
00:22:54,410 --> 00:22:57,570
anticipating whether or not we can

330
00:22:57,570 --> 00:23:06,370
actually get mr. Bishop to show up I would extend this as far as you could you

331
00:23:06,370 --> 00:23:11,850
can always come in earlier earlier yes okay as long as you're three weeks

332
00:23:11,850 --> 00:23:18,650
ahead of time, ahead of the meeting. You can come in early, but I just feel like it's not

333
00:23:18,650 --> 00:23:23,570
going to be a slam dunk for you to get him to come in here and testify to us. So you might

334
00:23:23,570 --> 00:23:24,750
want to take that into consideration.

335
00:23:25,830 --> 00:23:30,870
I think what I would recommend, if you're willing, is that it be no later than the

336
00:23:30,870 --> 00:23:34,950
regular meeting scheduled on December 17th. Would that be suitable for you?

337
00:23:39,090 --> 00:23:45,650
Please, I wish to ask whether if it needs me to do any modification, can I do it by myself?

338
00:23:46,610 --> 00:23:47,870
No, that's a question for staff.

339
00:23:50,210 --> 00:23:52,490
Yeah, the short answer to that is probably no.

340
00:23:53,110 --> 00:24:03,270
The long answer is you'd have to describe what you're doing review and we're also not the building department but if you're able to tell us what you're trying to do we can route you to the right people but I will tell you that

341
00:24:04,390 --> 00:24:07,410
usually without getting the zoning approval it can be tough to get a

342
00:24:07,410 --> 00:24:14,930
building permit so I think typically the zoning is is addressed first unless

343
00:24:14,930 --> 00:24:18,030
there's like structural issues that have to happen just to maintain the

344
00:24:18,030 --> 00:24:22,190
building so the short answer is probably no the long answer is you'd have to

345
00:24:22,190 --> 00:24:24,570
write out what you're doing in an email we could direct you to the right

346
00:24:24,570 --> 00:24:31,830
people what I would say and just to say this very clearly December 17th

347
00:24:31,830 --> 00:24:36,350
would be the latest that you could come back. You could come back sooner than that. The intent

348
00:24:36,350 --> 00:24:41,050
is to give you as much time. So if you've met the – gave us materials and said, hey,

349
00:24:41,110 --> 00:24:45,530
you could be here, for example, at the September 3rd meeting, that would be acceptable. What

350
00:24:45,530 --> 00:24:49,370
I believe the Board is trying to do is give you enough time to work with Mr. Bischoff

351
00:24:49,370 --> 00:24:53,350
to get here so you're not coming back and asking for extension after extension.

352
00:24:53,630 --> 00:24:58,910
So I think that's the intent here. So if you agree to the December 17th meeting

353
00:24:58,910 --> 00:25:04,130
being the latest you could come back at any of those what one two three six or

354
00:25:04,130 --> 00:25:08,410
seven meetings as long as you met the three-way deadline in advance and let us

355
00:25:08,410 --> 00:25:15,050
know so I would well I'm not allowed to advise you but that might be your best

356
00:25:15,050 --> 00:25:20,970
shot here is what I would suggest and to your other question we'd be happy to

357
00:25:20,970 --> 00:25:25,690
look at what you intended to do if you give it to us in writing but usually it

358
00:25:25,690 --> 00:25:29,210
requires zoning approval and less in special circumstances

359
00:25:29,210 --> 00:25:30,030
with the building department.

360
00:25:30,350 --> 00:25:31,450
But if you give it to us in writing,

361
00:25:31,530 --> 00:25:34,250
we can direct you to the right folks to do that,

362
00:25:34,250 --> 00:25:35,130
but we need it in writing.

363
00:25:36,950 --> 00:25:39,010
Thank you, Mr. Meyer, that was exactly my intent.

364
00:25:39,290 --> 00:25:42,590
So you're welcome to come back any time in between now

365
00:25:42,590 --> 00:25:46,430
and that December 17th, if that'd be sufficient for you.

366
00:25:46,470 --> 00:25:47,930
I just want to give you maximum time

367
00:25:47,930 --> 00:25:48,750
to meet with the landlord.

368
00:25:49,590 --> 00:25:50,170
Okay, sir.

369
00:25:50,370 --> 00:25:55,010
So I wish to ask whether I can get the staff concerns

370
00:25:55,010 --> 00:25:56,950
sense about it so I can work on that.

371
00:25:57,270 --> 00:25:59,110
Yeah, you can work on that at any time

372
00:25:59,110 --> 00:26:00,010
in the interim, absolutely.

373
00:26:00,550 --> 00:26:03,290
Okay, okay, thank you, sir.

374
00:26:06,110 --> 00:26:08,470
Hearing that the applicant would like

375
00:26:08,470 --> 00:26:11,350
to put this application on hold,

376
00:26:12,590 --> 00:26:16,530
I move that we do so and place it on hold

377
00:26:17,690 --> 00:26:21,050
for any meeting no later than our regularly scheduled

378
00:26:21,050 --> 00:26:23,410
meeting December 17th, 2026.

379
00:26:24,410 --> 00:26:25,310
Do I have a second?

380
00:26:25,310 --> 00:26:26,350
I have a second.

381
00:26:26,850 --> 00:26:28,090

00:31:14,300 --> 00:31:18,340
The overall development is roughly 69.4 acres with 30.1 of the acres

465
00:31:18,340 --> 00:31:21,660
consisting of the 280 dwelling single family attached lots.

Here you can see reserve K, which is the last lot.

471
00:31:37,900 --> 00:31:39,740
Reserve K is where the city park

and the overall developments retention basin

473
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,140
will be located.

474
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,220
Engineering reviewed the final plat

475
00:31:46,220 --> 00:31:47,340
and had the following comment

476
00:31:47,340 --> 00:31:49,360
regarding providing a drainage easement.

477
00:31:50,020 --> 00:31:53,900
and staff reviewed the final plat and had the following comments before you.

478
00:31:54,300 --> 00:31:57,320
Things such as clarifying the correct line to use on the plat,

479
00:31:57,460 --> 00:31:59,960
changing the application to the correct number of lots created,

480
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,880
and providing building setbacks on said reserves for some of the comments.

481
00:32:04,620 --> 00:32:07,420
Staff also needs the applicant to provide a maintenance easement

482
00:32:07,420 --> 00:32:12,200
for the stormwater facility within Reserve K stating in the maintenance easement documents

483
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:16,620
that the Summit Crossing Homeowners Association shall maintain said stormwater facility.

484
00:32:16,620 --> 00:32:22,160
The facility is intended as the retention pond on the preliminary plat and is shown in

485
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,760
the green box on the image.

486
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:28,920
The applicant agreed to do this during the major site plan review based on note C and

487
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:29,500
the document.

488
00:32:29,980 --> 00:32:34,320
However, no F on the final plat does not reflect this and states the city will own and maintain

489
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,880
everything on reserve K.

490
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:41,080
SAF recommends approval of the summit crossing subdivision section 2, phase B,

491
00:32:41,180 --> 00:32:42,420
with the following conditions.

517

Mr. Brask.

518
00:34:27,330 --> 00:34:27,570
Yes.

519
00:34:27,870 --> 00:34:28,350
Ms. Ward.

520
00:34:28,730 --> 00:34:28,950
Yes.

521
00:34:28,950 --> 00:34:38,290
Mr. Tuomo. Yes. Ms. Barnhart. Yes, Mr. First. Yes. Thank you. Next item is E1

522
00:34:38,290 --> 00:34:43,210
zoning code. This is everyone's favorite topic. I am absolutely ready to hear what

523
00:34:43,210 --> 00:34:43,830
you have to say, Steph.

524
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:51,800
So we're working on at the last last year we had a

525
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,820
want to call it a workshop where we brought a PowerPoint and just looked

526
00:34:54,820 --> 00:34:59,200
out some images of stuff we wanted to get direction from the board on. Do we

527
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:05,800
want to address it, not address it, do more work. So we've got, it's about a 65 page PowerPoint

528
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:11,540
right now. We'll try to cut it down as much as we can, but the intent is that the August

529
00:35:11,540 --> 00:35:16,380
20th meeting, we bring it, some of them might have specific language in the code to change,

530
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:20,560
but a lot of it is just, here's a picture of the issue, here's the direction we're

531
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:26,400
thinking is the board supportive, not supportive, is there consensus, not consensus? So it's

532
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:31,020
trying to workshop some of that and then to refresh everybody on the board the

533
00:35:31,020 --> 00:35:36,000
process for the zoning code update is staff and draft zoning code changes we

534
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,200
present with a city council city council then sends them back to the plan

535
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,680
or sends them to the planning and zoning board and then the planning and zoning

536
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,960
board votes out recommendations to city council then city council would then

537
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,140
vote on those typically we try to do that on an annual schedule that ties

538
00:35:49,140 --> 00:35:54,040
that with our budget process we have two meetings a year in December

539
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:58,340
December, typically, one of them is scheduled. It's December 14th. My understanding from

540
00:35:58,340 --> 00:36:02,100
the clerk or council is she thinks the other meeting will be December 7th, but it's not

541
00:36:02,100 --> 00:36:07,260
guaranteed. So the intent is to talk about this on August 20th, get some direction on

542
00:36:07,260 --> 00:36:12,040
key things, work on writing changes, get it to city council probably in early October,

543
00:36:12,300 --> 00:36:16,000
and then get that to you folks. We've got some time to look at it. So that's

544
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,640
the intent. To be clear, we're not going to have written changes for everything,

545
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,540
but we just want to talk about it. An example is, you know, the City Council

546
00:36:24,540 --> 00:36:28,760
directed us based upon the appeal we had about a launch rematch. We're talking

547
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,900
about adding that as a use in some areas, things like that. So that's

548
00:36:32,900 --> 00:36:36,820
what's coming in the 20th. And then it's on

549
00:36:36,820 --> 00:36:40,480
the next slide. It wasn't from the agenda, but here is what's going to be

550
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,460
happening in City Hall at the City Council chambers. So this is a

551
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,640
drawing of the chambers. You'll note in the back

552
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,380
If that area is going to be ripped up and turned into a conference space with kind of

553
00:36:52,380 --> 00:36:57,440
like a folding glass door that can shut to make a meeting space that can also be open

554
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,360
up to use for meetings, I say this because that work will be starting at the end of

555
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,500
August and will not be done until December.

556
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:09,640
So my understanding is we'll still be using this space for meetings, but you folks will

557
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,160
be dealing with that during planning and zoning board meetings.

558
00:37:12,340 --> 00:37:15,800
The work will not be going on, but there will be some disruption.

559
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,080
So I wanted to give you folks a heads up.

560
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:22,780
next meeting will not be underway but the one in September it will so I figured

561
00:37:22,780 --> 00:37:26,300
I would give you folks a heads up so you know that it's starting in September

562
00:37:26,300 --> 00:37:31,520
you'd be walking into a construction site so thank you Mr. Meyer thank you for

563
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:37,920
not springing a surprise 65 page PowerPoint presentation on us this

564
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:42,760
evening Mr. Banner I assume you don't want to meet at the Hickory House

565
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,380
instead we'll

566
00:37:48,220 --> 00:37:50,800
keep that under advisement is there any additional

567
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:55,620
business before the board. Hearing none, this meeting is adjourned at 6.37. Thank you.
