00:12:30,868 that the construction can be substantially 205 00:12:30,868 --> 00:12:34,528 similar to the provided site plan Thank you. 206 00:12:34,528 --> 00:12:37,258 Thank you Is is there anyone here to speak 207 00:12:37,258 --> 00:12:38,518 on behalf of the applicant? 208 00:12:38,518 --> 00:12:39,988 Sir would you approach the podium? 209 00:12:39,988 --> 00:12:44,068 State your name and address for the record Good evening. 210 00:12:44,068 --> 00:12:45,748 I'm Peter McMaster Jr with three homes. 211 00:12:45,748 --> 00:12:48,748 I'm the builder and my address is 760 old. 212 00:12:48,748 --> 00:12:52,018 I've road northeast Atlanta, Georgia 30342. 213 00:12:52,018 --> 00:12:55,318 Thank you Would you make your presentation, please? 214 00:12:55,318 --> 00:12:56,758 I have to commend loquitur. 215 00:12:56,758 --> 00:12:58,498 I she nailed it. 216 00:12:58,498 --> 00:12:59,038 She did. 217 00:12:59,038 --> 00:13:00,748 I just did a variance in the city of Atlanta 218 00:13:00,748 --> 00:13:02,698 and very different experience. 219 00:13:02,698 --> 00:13:06,183 She did a very good job summarizing the entire project 220 00:13:06,183 --> 00:13:07,708 so I don't have much to add. 221 00:13:07,708 --> 00:13:10,408 I think it's she really well captured it. 222 00:13:10,408 --> 00:13:12,599 Essentially, it's just a bump out on the back of the house, 223 00:13:12,599 --> 00:13:14,908 replacing a deck where it currently 224 00:13:14,908 --> 00:13:17,188 is an expanse The key point of this 225 00:13:17,188 --> 00:13:19,558 is that this structure that we're 226 00:13:19,558 --> 00:13:23,908 building off of the back of the house is elevated on stilts. 227 00:13:23,908 --> 00:13:25,558 So just like you saw in those images 228 00:13:25,558 --> 00:13:27,538 that she showed you, the deck is on stilts 229 00:13:27,538 --> 00:13:30,418 because the whole house, you know, the lot is like this. 230 00:13:30,418 --> 00:13:33,478 The whole new addition will all continue to be on stilts 231 00:13:33,478 --> 00:13:36,658 So none of this is actually going to even touch the ground. 232 00:13:36,658 --> 00:13:38,428 The only thing that touches the ground 233 00:13:38,428 --> 00:13:41,788 are the footers of the stilts and actually quantity of stilts 234 00:13:41,788 --> 00:13:43,738 is going to reduce from what's existing 235 00:13:43,738 --> 00:13:45,928 right now with the deck to the proposed 236 00:13:45,928 --> 00:13:47,519 is actually getting smaller. 237 00:13:47,519 --> 00:13:50,173 I think we go from 9 to 7, because our spans 238 00:13:50,173 --> 00:13:51,358 are longer in the engineering. 239 00:13:51,358 --> 00:13:55,648 So our actual footprint on the ground in the buffer area 240 00:13:55,648 --> 00:13:57,388 goes down, not up. 241 00:13:57,388 --> 00:14:01,468 So everything remains basically untouched where it is. 242 00:14:01,468 --> 00:14:04,288 There's no actual structure or going down to the ground 243 00:14:04,288 --> 00:14:05,428 beyond the posts. 244 00:14:05,428 --> 00:14:07,228 I think that's a key element that it's 245 00:14:07,228 --> 00:14:10,168 very difficult to capture in some of these documents. 246 00:14:10,168 --> 00:14:11,698 But otherwise she did a great job putting 247 00:14:11,698 --> 00:14:12,718 that presentation together. 248 00:14:12,718 --> 00:14:18,287 So I commend we're well done So you have nothing further. 249 00:14:18,287 --> 00:14:18,789 Now. 250 00:14:18,789 --> 00:14:20,608 OK You can be seated. 251 00:14:20,608 --> 00:14:21,238 Thank you. 252 00:14:21,238 --> 00:14:23,698 Is there anyone here to speak on behalf 253 00:14:23,698 --> 00:14:31,168 of the applicant Anyone, Anyone to speak in opposition in? 254 00:14:31,168 --> 00:14:33,538 All right Do you have anything further? 255 00:14:33,538 --> 00:14:35,938 You have time for rebuttal but you don't have any really 256 00:14:35,938 --> 00:14:38,191 anything to rebut OK. 257 00:14:38,191 --> 00:14:41,938 So we'll close the public discussion now and turn 258 00:14:41,938 --> 00:14:47,968 to the board for discussion Any questions or comments for 259 00:14:47,968 --> 00:14:51,418 either staff or the applicant? 260 00:14:51,418 --> 00:14:53,411 I have a question for Mr. McMaster. 261 00:14:53,411 --> 00:14:57,178 Come back to the podium, please And there 262 00:14:57,178 --> 00:15:00,508 are for the arborist Notice that the decks can extend 263 00:15:00,508 --> 00:15:03,988 beyond the existing footprint but it sounds 264 00:15:03,988 --> 00:15:05,908 like even though it's extending, it's 265 00:15:05,908 --> 00:15:07,648 not going to be taking out any existing 266 00:15:07,648 --> 00:15:09,598 trees or bushes or anything. 267 00:15:09,598 --> 00:15:10,298 Is that correct? 268 00:15:10,298 --> 00:15:10,798 Correct. 269 00:15:10,798 --> 00:15:12,328 No trees are being touched at all. 270 00:15:12,328 --> 00:15:13,768 We had an initial design. 271 00:15:13,768 --> 00:15:17,068 And we had developers meeting with the team at the city 272 00:15:17,068 --> 00:15:20,428 and we had an initial plan that did destroy a couple of trees 273 00:15:20,428 --> 00:15:21,958 for the stormwater retention. 274 00:15:21,958 --> 00:15:24,658 But at their advice, we revised it with our civil engineer. 275 00:15:24,658 --> 00:15:26,068 So no trees are destroyed. 276 00:15:26,068 --> 00:15:28,468 We're going to put some flow wells in the ground in an area 277 00:15:28,468 --> 00:15:30,148 that won't disturb the trees. 278 00:15:30,148 --> 00:15:33,418 So literally no trees are being destroyed. 279 00:15:33,418 --> 00:15:33,958 Thank you. 280 00:15:33,958 --> 00:15:39,478 You're Welcome Can anyone else ? 281 00:15:39,478 --> 00:15:40,468 Nothing further. 282 00:15:40,468 --> 00:15:44,668 You

is case V26 43 at 116 Hartman 321 00:17:58,438 --> 00:18:03,628 Road That's recommendation is denial of the applicants 322 00:18:03,628 --> 00:18:07,798 are requesting a variance from section 7.8. 323 00:18:07,798 --> 00:18:14,998 24 and sections 2.3.1 to allow for a sport court to encroach 324 00:18:14,998 --> 00:18:19,258 into the side and rear setbacks and to exceed the maximum not 325 00:18:19,258 --> 00:18:27,088 coverage The character area of the highlighted parcel is 326 00:18:27,088 --> 00:18:32,842 the neighborhood and the zoning is already 18 for 18,000 square 327 00:18:32,842 --> 00:18:39,538 foot minimum lot size here on the aerial image you can see 328 00:18:39,538 --> 00:18:43,678 the standard shape lot with the primary residence along with 329 00:18:43,678 --> 00:18:47,878 the pool and the rear and the sports court in the northwest 330 00:18:47,878 --> 00:18:55,588 corner here is the asphalt where you can see the home driveway 331 00:18:55,588 --> 00:19:04,978 pool and sports court The subject property is on RDA 18 332 00:19:04,978 --> 00:19:07,948 and is a little less than half an acre 333 00:19:07,948 --> 00:19:11,308 The property is developed with a two story home in 334 00:19:11,308 --> 00:19:13,648 attached to one car garage swimming 335 00:19:13,648 --> 00:19:18,088 pool and a sports court based on Fulton county's records. 336 00:19:18,088 --> 00:19:21,388 The property was platted in 1946, 337 00:19:21,388 --> 00:19:26,518 and the present homeowners acquired the property in 2016. 338 00:19:26,518 --> 00:19:29,908 The UNpermitted sports Court was built in 2025, 339 00:19:29,908 --> 00:19:34,258 along with the unpermitted light and light pole 340 00:19:34,258 --> 00:19:37,678 Although the property does not have any screen buffers or flood 341 00:19:37,678 --> 00:19:40,108 zones, it is located within the Nancy 342 00:19:40,108 --> 00:19:42,808 Creek, declared sensitive area, 343 00:19:42,808 --> 00:19:46,438 which will require twice as much mitigation for stormwater 344 00:19:46,438 --> 00:20:02,668 management Slide to the left is an image of the property 345 00:20:02,668 --> 00:20:05,308 before the sports court and to the right 346 00:20:05,308 --> 00:20:13,588 is an image After this part court was installed To the left 347 00:20:13,588 --> 00:20:16,048 is a picture of the front of the home 348 00:20:16,048 --> 00:20:18,118 and to the right is a picture of the sports 349 00:20:18,118 --> 00:20:25,468 court with the light pole netting and privacy fit 350 00:20:25,468 --> 00:20:28,198 These pictures visually demonstrate 351 00:20:28,198 --> 00:20:30,958 the distance between the sports court 352 00:20:30,958 --> 00:20:33,710 and the North in width property lines. 353 00:20:33,710 --> 00:20:42,718 There are approximately is 4 feet The applicant is proposing 354 00:20:42,718 --> 00:20:46,678 to maintain unpermitted sports court that encroaches closer 355 00:20:46,678 --> 00:20:50,248 to the north end and Wellston property lines than what is 356 00:20:50,248 --> 00:20:55,330 permitted The development code The sport court is 4 feet from 357 00:20:55,330 --> 00:20:58,678 the west and north property lines and the development code 358 00:20:58,678 --> 00:21:02,458 states their minor residential accessory structures must be 359 00:21:02,458 --> 00:21:06,748 at least the minimum setback or ten feet for the property lines, 360 00:21:06,748 --> 00:21:15,148 whichever is less restrictive The sport court is 766ft² 361 00:21:15,148 --> 00:21:18,118 and there were also caused the property to exceed the maximum 362 00:21:18,118 --> 00:21:21,178 lot coverage of 35%. 363 00:21:21,178 --> 00:21:24,478 And 2019, the homeowners received approval 364 00:21:24,478 --> 00:21:28,198 for a pool that allowed the lot coverage to increase 365 00:21:28,198 --> 00:21:32,008 to 40% due to additional stormwater mitigation 366 00:21:32,008 --> 00:21:35,368 measures With the proposed sport court, 367 00:21:35,368 --> 00:21:43,798 the total lot coverage increased to 44.3% per section, 7.8. 368 00:21:43,798 --> 00:21:48,238 24 of the development code Minor residential accessory structures 369 00:21:48,238 --> 00:21:52,258 must be a minimum of ten feet or the required setback from 370 00:21:52,258 --> 00:21:59,458 the property line section 2.3.1 of the development code are lot 371 00:21:59,458 --> 00:22:12,328 parameters like coverage for residential use is 35% x five 372 00:22:12,328 --> 00:22:17,068 Here is an illustrative image showing the sport court and read 373 00:22:17,068 --> 00:22:20,398 and the buildable space and green for a minor residential 374 00:22:20,398 --> 00:22:29,548 accessory structure Staff consider the approval criteria 375 00:22:29,548 --> 00:22:32,458 for variance and found that allowing the sport quite 376 00:22:32,458 --> 00:22:34,708 to remain in its current location 377 00:22:34,708 --> 00:22:39,418 would directly conflict with the intent of the development code. 378 00:22:39,418 --> 00:22:41,248 The sport court is located within 379 00:22:41,248 --> 00:22:45,388 to require a setback It also exceeds both the maximum 380 00:22:45,388 --> 00:22:49,078 impervious coverage, along with the additional 5% 381 00:22:49,078 --> 00:22:52,648 there may be allowed with mitigation south signs 382 00:22:52,648 --> 00:22:55,000 that the inability to keep the permitted sport 383 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,388 court at its current size and location 384 00:22:57,388 --> 00:23:04,408 is a mere inconvenience rather than an extraordinary hardship 385 00:23:04,408 --> 00:23:14,378 Next slide, please Staff recommends denial of two six 386 00:23:14,378 --> 00:23:15,878 DoorDash 43. 387 00:23:15,878 --> 00:23:19,078 I request to allow a sport court to encroach 388 00:23:19,078 --> 00:23:21,418 into the site and rear setbacks and to exceed 389 00:23:21,418 --> 00:23:26,368 the maximum coverage if the board chooses to approve staff 390 00:23:26,368 --> 00:23:30,988 recommends the following condition One that the evergreen 391 00:23:30,988 --> 00:23:33,958 screening tree or wax myrtle like shrubs 392 00:23:33,958

00:24:44,978 My name's Alex brock with Smith. 411 00:24:44,978 --> 00:24:45,478 Campbell. 412 00:24:45,478 --> 00:24:46,318 Russell. 413 00:24:46,318 --> 00:24:48,898 Office Address 1105 West Peachtree Street. 414 00:24:48,898 --> 00:24:53,747 I am the land use attorney here on behalf of the property owners 415 00:24:53,747 --> 00:24:57,958 Ashe and Reef along with joining me tonight, 416 00:24:57,958 --> 00:25:03,298 I have asked our boy the property owner of 116 Hardman 417 00:25:03,298 --> 00:25:06,598 in to give a little bit of color on why we are here tonight 418 00:25:06,598 --> 00:25:09,088 to request the variances I'd like to give a background 419 00:25:09,088 --> 00:25:13,348 a little bit of a history of how we came here tonight 420 00:25:13,348 --> 00:25:17,548 The alley for the LBJ sign has an endocrine condition which 421 00:25:17,548 --> 00:25:18,688 their doctors recommended. 422 00:25:18,688 --> 00:25:21,538 In addition to their medical treatments 423 00:25:21,538 --> 00:25:25,498 to have daily exercise to stimulate pituitary function. 424 00:25:25,498 --> 00:25:31,138 So that alley poised last year, they decided to install a sports 425 00:25:31,138 --> 00:25:33,328 court basketball court, which would 426 00:25:33,328 --> 00:25:36,118 allow cardiovascular exercise in a limited area 427 00:25:36,118 --> 00:25:37,618 on their property. 428 00:25:37,618 --> 00:25:42,148 They reached out to a contractor to install that sports court 429 00:25:42,148 --> 00:25:47,038 The contractor on fortunately gave them incorrect information 430 00:25:47,038 --> 00:25:51,328 that a permit was not needed for a basketball court The sports 431 00:25:51,328 --> 00:25:53,908 court was installed without a permit 432 00:25:53,908 --> 00:25:59,368 unbeknownst to the homeowners Fast forward to September, 433 00:25:59,368 --> 00:26:03,688 and this was of late July August last year 434 00:26:03,688 --> 00:26:05,308 So the sports court has been used 435 00:26:05,308 --> 00:26:09,658 and functioning for about a year now Fast forward 436 00:26:09,658 --> 00:26:12,898 to September, October of 2025. 437 00:26:12,898 --> 00:26:16,858 The adjacent neighbor at 106, Hardman had filed a complaint 438 00:26:16,858 --> 00:26:19,408 with the City of Sandy Springs about Storm 439 00:26:19,408 --> 00:26:22,798 water runoff, which was unrelated to the sports court. 440 00:26:22,798 --> 00:26:24,238 This was an existing issue. 441 00:26:24,238 --> 00:26:29,488 There's a swale in between 116 hardman and one of six Hardman 442 00:26:29,488 --> 00:26:32,068 That over the years has worn down 443 00:26:32,068 --> 00:26:35,188 and storm water flow from the house, from the gutters 444 00:26:35,188 --> 00:26:41,758 has flowed into his front yard At that time, 445 00:26:41,758 --> 00:26:45,238 Sandy Springs code enforcement informed the homeowners 446 00:26:45,238 --> 00:26:48,538 that the sports court was installed without a permit 447 00:26:48,538 --> 00:26:50,488 and they would have to go back to get a permit. 448 00:26:50,488 --> 00:26:55,258 So Miss our boy had submitted the permit in late October 449 00:26:55,258 --> 00:26:58,048 November of last year and has been working with staffs 450 00:26:58,048 --> 00:27:01,438 since that time to get a permit for the sports court 451 00:27:01,438 --> 00:27:05,338 in march April of this year staff 452 00:27:05,338 --> 00:27:08,158 had informed the homeowners that they would also need 453 00:27:08,158 --> 00:27:11,428 a variance for the setback due to the location of the sports 454 00:27:11,428 --> 00:27:17,128 court at that time, they engaged me as a land use attorney 455 00:27:17,128 --> 00:27:18,928 to help them with the variance process 456 00:27:18,928 --> 00:27:24,478 as it's one of the first steps that I took when I took 457 00:27:24,478 --> 00:27:28,018 on this matter was to reach out to the adjacent homeowner that 458 00:27:28,018 --> 00:27:29,878 is closest to the sports court at one of six, 459 00:27:29,878 --> 00:27:32,188 Hardiman we met with him, 460 00:27:32,188 --> 00:27:35,608 and if You I don't know if you can bring back up the site 461 00:27:35,608 --> 00:27:42,268 plan with the read text on it but those were yes then 462 00:27:42,268 --> 00:27:44,848 those were mitigation efforts that he had to request 463 00:27:44,848 --> 00:27:48,598 And when you can see the rebuilding of the swale, 464 00:27:48,598 --> 00:27:51,898 again, that's not directing flows from the sports court, 465 00:27:51,898 --> 00:27:57,148 but is existing condition that we are willing to correct. 466 00:27:57,148 --> 00:28:01,738 He also requested planting along the sports court, which we are 467 00:28:01,738 --> 00:28:05,698 agreeable with, which staff is also recommended condition for 468 00:28:05,698 --> 00:28:08,668 and the installation of netting along the sports court, which we 469 00:28:08,668 --> 00:28:10,918 are in agreement with as well. 470 00:28:10,918 --> 00:28:13,078 And this is reflected on the site plan that was submitted 471 00:28:13,078 --> 00:28:18,598 with the application there are some hardships associated 472 00:28:18,598 --> 00:28:20,278 with the sports court. 473 00:28:20,278 --> 00:28:22,648 He cannot be relocated on the property 474 00:28:22,648 --> 00:28:27,538 due to the limited space the property is owned or 18. 475 00:28:27,538 --> 00:28:29,908 However, it is not an 80,000 square foot lot. 476 00:28:29,908 --> 00:28:31,438 It is slightly smaller. 477 00:28:31,438 --> 00:28:34,588 It's closer to 17,500. 478 00:28:34,588 --> 00:28:37,438 With that, there is some difficulty trying 479 00:28:37,438 --> 00:28:40,438 to relocate on property as well as mature tree 480 00:28:40,438 --> 00:28:42,508 cover and the backyard. 481 00:28:42,508 --> 00:28:45,208 So we cannot move the sports court further 482 00:28:45,208 --> 00:28:47,349 to the east to get it out. 483 00:28:47,349 --> 00:28:48,420 Other side yard. 484 00:28:48,420 --> 00:28:53,158 Setback In addition, removing the sports court would be 485 00:28:53,158 --> 00:28:55,056 would result in significant disturbance. 486 00:28:55,056 --> 00:28:57,808 We would have to remove parts of the fence 487 00:28:57,808 --> 00:29:00,328 to get the chunks of concrete out 488 00:29:00,328 --> 00:29:03,182 There is a foundation wall for the sports core. 489 00:29:03,182 --> 00:29:07,228 There's topography issues back there 490 00:29:07,228 --> 00:29:09,835 And I would just like to note a reiterate again 491 00:29:09,835 --> 00:29:13,228 that this has been in use for over a year now 492 00:29:13,228 --> 00:29:18,688 without complaint from the neighbors 493 00:29:18,688 --> 00:29:23,218 The leave the boy son has had consistent use of the sports 494 00:29:23,218 --> 00:29:24,028 court. 495 00:29:24,028 --> 00:29:27,178 Again without any complaint from the neighbors, 496 00:29:27,178 --> 00:29:30,208 from noise or impacts. 497 00:29:30,208 --> 00:29:33,478 We do have letters of support, which we have submitted to staff 498 00:29:33,478 --> 00:29:36,688 and which staff has indicate they have provided 499 00:29:36,688 --> 00:29:41,248 to you tonight We are also in addition to the mitigation 500 00:29:41,248 --> 00:29:44,278 measures that we are proposing on this site plan, 501 00:29:44,278 --> 00:29:47,998 we are in agreement with staff's recommended mitigation measures 502 00:29:47,998 --> 00:29:52,138 The Alley Boys are all boys have agreed to remove the light court 503 00:29:52,138 --> 00:29:54,418 or the light pole at the sports court, 504 00:29:54,418 --> 00:29:58,288 install additional stormwater pumps as directed by staff 505 00:29:58,288 --> 00:30:01,528 and install evergreen screening, which is also shown on our site 506 00:30:01,528 --> 00:30:05,668 plan In addition, we received the staff 507 00:30:05,668 --> 00:30:08,698 report this past Monday when we read those conditions, 508 00:30:08,698 --> 00:30:12,808 we submit it to additional conditions to staff to further 509 00:30:12,808 --> 00:30:18,418 mitigate the impacts One is to offset the impervious 510 00:30:18,418 --> 00:30:22,828 coverage in light kind to the sports 511 00:30:22,828 --> 00:30:26,068 court is approximately 750ft². 512 00:30:26,068 --> 00:30:30,298 We would offset that elsewhere on the property with pervious 513 00:30:30,298 --> 00:30:35,428 pavers likely removing concrete from the front driveway, which 514 00:30:35,428 --> 00:30:39,088 is easier to demo and remove from the property 515 00:30:39,088 --> 00:30:41,608 and replace those with pervious pavers. 516 00:30:41,608 --> 00:30:45,718 If the second condition is to commit to installing 517 00:30:45,718 --> 00:30:49,186 the mitigation measures agreed to with the neighbor that are 518 00:30:49,186 --> 00:30:53,335 shown on the site plan With these mitigation measures, 519 00:30:53,335 --> 00:30:55,168 the applicant has gained the support of the surrounding 520 00:30:55,168 --> 00:30:59,458 neighbors as shown in the letters of support 521 00:30:59,458 --> 00:31:05,638 that are submitted with this application 522 00:31:05,638 --> 00:31:09,988 And again, just reiterate additional time this has been 523 00:31:09,988 --> 00:31:13,288 in use for over a year One of the most determined 524 00:31:13,288 --> 00:31:14,998 of the factors of whether or not a variance 525 00:31:14,998 --> 00:31:17,938 has impact on the community is how 526 00:31:17,938 --> 00:31:19,918 it will affect the neighbors, 527 00:31:19,918 --> 00:31:23,338 the surrounding community Here we have a unique situation where 528 00:31:23,338 --> 00:31:25,618 the sports court has been in active use 529 00:31:25,618 --> 00:31:30,885 for over a year without complaint from the neighbors 530 00:31:30,885 --> 00:31:33,665 There have been no complaints of noise, 531 00:31:33,665 --> 00:31:37,288 light pollution or other factors from these surrounding 532 00:31:37,288 --> 00:31:38,518 neighbors. 533 00:31:38,518 --> 00:31:41,308 So we respectfully request that you support this variance 534 00:31:41,308 --> 00:31:43,288 and approve this variance. 535 00:31:43,288 --> 00:31:46,708 Alternatively if there are questions or if there's other 536 00:31:46,708 --> 00:31:49,528 mitigating factors that we can include in our plan, 537 00:31:49,528 --> 00:31:53,518 we are more than willing to work with staff to include those 538 00:31:53,518 --> 00:31:55,078 and we would accept a deferral. 539 00:31:55,078 --> 00:31:58,948 So we could come back with those included in our application 540 00:31:58,948 --> 00:32:04,018 and site plan But again, we feel that we have worked diligently 541 00:32:04,018 --> 00:32:06,598 with the community and with staff 542 00:32:06,598 --> 00:32:09,688 to allow the Sports Court to remain So with that, 543 00:32:09,688 --> 00:32:13,148 I will reserve any remaining time for rebuttal. 544 00:32:13,148 --> 00:32:13,648 All right. 545 00:32:13,648 --> 00:32:14,148 Thank you. 546 00:32:14,148 --> 00:32:17,698 Thank you And is there anyone else to speak on behalf 547

00:32:53,098 --> 00:32:55,798 And I am also the president of the Coasters condominium 568 00:32:55,798 --> 00:32:58,738 association, which is the downhill neighbor 569 00:32:58,738 --> 00:33:01,168 of this property and who has not been 570 00:33:01,168 --> 00:33:06,298 contacted at all about this variance So again, good evening. 571 00:33:06,298 --> 00:33:08,158 I'm the president of the Cloisters Condominium 572 00:33:08,158 --> 00:33:11,588 Association and I represent roughly Hundreds units whose 573 00:33:11,588 --> 00:33:15,508 homes sit downhill of this property I would note 574 00:33:15,508 --> 00:33:18,238 that while various individual community members received 575 00:33:18,238 --> 00:33:21,568 notice of this application, to my knowledge, the Cloisters 576 00:33:21,568 --> 00:33:24,868 condominium association itself has not received 577 00:33:24,868 --> 00:33:27,598 any notification and I personally did not receive 578 00:33:27,598 --> 00:33:30,898 any notification And despite living close enough that I can 579 00:33:30,898 --> 00:33:35,848 actually hear the family play in their backyard 580 00:33:35,848 --> 00:33:38,668 our community has experienced stormwater runoff issues in 581 00:33:38,668 --> 00:33:40,378 the past based on construction. 582 00:33:40,378 --> 00:33:43,258 A long hartman Road, which is why this application 583 00:33:43,258 --> 00:33:45,808 is of particular concern to us. 584 00:33:45,808 --> 00:33:48,298 I respectfully ask that the board deny these variance 585 00:33:48,298 --> 00:33:50,548 requests and I note that city staff has already 586 00:33:50,548 --> 00:33:52,048 recommended denial of them. 587 00:33:52,048 --> 00:33:57,448 I won't reach over that But this is not simply weather 588 00:33:57,448 --> 00:33:59,548 Sports court is a nice amenity. 589 00:33:59,548 --> 00:34:01,048 It's about whether the applicants 590 00:34:01,048 --> 00:34:03,058 have met the legal standards for a variance 591 00:34:03,058 --> 00:34:06,388 and staff found that they have not, as downhill neighbors. 592 00:34:06,388 --> 00:34:10,408 Our greatest concern is storm water Gravity is unavoidable 593 00:34:10,408 --> 00:34:13,558 in any increase in impervious surface on uphill property 594 00:34:13,558 --> 00:34:15,778 affects everyone below it. 595 00:34:15,778 --> 00:34:18,868 And I do note that he just said that they would be willing to do 596 00:34:18,868 --> 00:34:20,848 a like kind pervious or impervious, 597 00:34:20,848 --> 00:34:25,078 but putting pervious materials on the front of the property 598 00:34:25,078 --> 00:34:27,208 won't do anything to offset the concerns 599 00:34:27,208 --> 00:34:28,408 that we have on the backside. 600 00:34:28,408 --> 00:34:32,158 The topography there is very, very, very steep. 601 00:34:32,158 --> 00:34:35,706 It is very steep The fence runs along the ridge line. 602 00:34:35,706 --> 00:34:38,848 And then it is a straight drop off 603 00:34:38,848 --> 00:34:41,248 and it goes directly into all of our backyards 604 00:34:41,248 --> 00:34:45,868 in our townhome and condo association with that applicant. 605 00:34:45,868 --> 00:34:47,608 Seek to raise the lot coverage from the permitted 606 00:34:47,608 --> 00:34:52,408 35% they'd already raised it to 40, announced 44.3%. 607 00:34:52,408 --> 00:34:55,348 This the staff confirm that exceeds the general intent 608 00:34:55,348 --> 00:34:59,938 of the development code As you can see from the images, they 609 00:34:59,938 --> 00:35:04,318 also the applicants propose a swale and pervious pavers. 610 00:35:04,318 --> 00:35:06,208 But pervious pavers again on the front of the property 611 00:35:06,208 --> 00:35:09,208 won't do anything to help me on the backside of their property. 612 00:35:09,208 --> 00:35:12,928 And I don't even know if there's room for a swale in other areas. 613 00:35:12,928 --> 00:35:15,448 I am concerned about the setback variance. 614 00:35:15,448 --> 00:35:17,248 The sports court willing was intentionally 615 00:35:17,248 --> 00:35:18,868 built within the required setbacks 616 00:35:18,868 --> 00:35:20,548 before permits weren't obtained. 617 00:35:20,548 --> 00:35:22,018 I'm sympathetic to the fact that they 618 00:35:22,018 --> 00:35:24,508 got a contractor that gave them bad advice, 619 00:35:24,508 --> 00:35:25,918 but we still are where we are. 620 00:35:25,918 --> 00:35:28,468 And I'm also sympathetic to the reason why they have it. 621 00:35:28,468 --> 00:35:33,748 But as a homeowner and as a row of town homes and condos 622 00:35:33,748 --> 00:35:36,568 who've had to replace their flooring before because 623 00:35:36,568 --> 00:35:39,388 of the construction and hard them in court we have to stand 624 00:35:39,388 --> 00:35:42,928 and we have to say this to all the applicants. 625 00:35:42,928 --> 00:35:45,868 Blame the lots size slope and mature trees 626 00:35:45,868 --> 00:35:49,666 But again, staff disagreed with, again, 627 00:35:49,666 --> 00:35:53,548 I'm just skipping over because the staff did appropriately 628 00:35:53,548 --> 00:35:57,568 share everything a hardship a hardship should arise 629 00:35:57,568 --> 00:36:00,478 from the land itself, not from the decision to build first 630 00:36:00,478 --> 00:36:02,428 and then seek approval later. 631 00:36:02,428 --> 00:36:05,248 And it is concerning to me that no one in our neighborhood 632 00:36:05,248 --> 00:36:07,048 was actively contacted and discussed. 633 00:36:07,048 --> 00:36:10,378 So while I'm appreciative that the Eastern and Western side 634 00:36:10,378 --> 00:36:12,898 neighbors perhaps might be supportive and have worked 635 00:36:12,898 --> 00:36:15,628 out their issues it completely ignores the fact 636 00:36:15,628 --> 00:36:18,868 that they're adjacent to a massive property 637 00:36:18,868 --> 00:36:20,398 and we have all sorts of concerns 638 00:36:20,398 --> 00:36:22,018 that we have to deal with too. 639 00:36:22,018 --> 00:36:24,418 And so being a part of monitoring 640 00:36:24,418 --> 00:36:29,608 what a neighbor does on Hardiman is difficult for us to do. 641 00:36:29,608 --> 00:36:31,348 Finally, the board should consider precedent. 642 00:36:31,348 --> 00:36:32,938 If owners can build without permits 643 00:36:32,938 --> 00:36:35,518 and later obtain variance is because removals inconvenient, 644 00:36:35,518 --> 00:36:37,858 it weakens the city's regulations and disadvantages 645 00:36:37,858 --> 00:36:40,798 compliant property owners as downhill neighbors We live 646 00:36:40,798 --> 00:36:44,158 with the long term consequences of drainage problems develop 647 00:36:44,158 --> 00:36:45,748 and the proposed mitigation has not 648 00:36:45,748 --> 00:36:49,528 been shown to eliminate that risk For these reasons, 649 00:36:49,528 --> 00:36:50,848 we respectfully ask for the board 650 00:36:50,848 --> 00:36:53,098 to deny both variance requests. 651 00:36:53,098 --> 00:36:56,488 If the board grants some relief, despite Staff's recommending 652 00:36:56,488 --> 00:37:00,268 And I also ask that again for this approval 653 00:37:00,268 --> 00:37:01,558 on the engineering report. 654 00:37:01,558 --> 00:37:04,018 That is our main concern. 655 00:37:04,018 --> 00:37:06,898 And that there's going to be no increase in stormwater runoff 656 00:37:06,898 --> 00:37:08,338 together with enforceable conditions 657 00:37:08,338 --> 00:37:11,938 requiring the screening, etc. 658 00:37:11,938 --> 00:37:16,018 And then lastly, I I can admit I don't fully 659 00:37:16,018 --> 00:37:18,298 know what is within the purview of what you can do, 660 00:37:18,298 --> 00:37:21,748 but we would ask that if this board does allow this to move 661 00:37:21,748 --> 00:37:25,138 forward, that there are some either deadlines or more 662 00:37:25,138 --> 00:37:27,988 communication or information We shouldn't have to be monitoring 663 00:37:27,988 --> 00:37:30,478 what they do and whether or not, if they're ordered to remove 664 00:37:30,478 --> 00:37:32,998 the sports court that they do it or if their auditors they say 665 00:37:32,998 --> 00:37:35,488 they're going to do more pervious pavers, 666 00:37:35,488 --> 00:37:39,392 that they do it we would ask for more invermay action. 667 00:37:39,392 --> 00:37:42,238 And we will be monitoring the situation. 668 00:37:42,238 --> 00:37:46,228 I can assure both city staff and the homeowners, 669 00:37:46,228 --> 00:37:48,328 they are that my entire community 670 00:37:48,328 --> 00:37:50,398 is very interested in what goes on here. 671 00:37:50,398 --> 00:37:53,458 Thank you so much for your time Thank you. 672 00:37:53,458 --> 00:37:56,204 You may be seated Is there. 673 00:37:56,204 --> 00:38:03,748 Do you want to rebut anything that was said Yes, 674 00:38:03,748 --> 00:38:05,518 just a few points. 675 00:38:05,518 --> 00:38:10,288 One, we did send out notices to the residents at the Cloisters 676 00:38:10,288 --> 00:38:12,928 and we received several phone calls from residents 677 00:38:12,928 --> 00:38:15,058 at the Cloisters They were mostly concerned with where 678 00:38:15,058 --> 00:38:17,068 the property was located. 679 00:38:17,068 --> 00:38:18,358 This is the first time tonight that I 680 00:38:18,358 --> 00:38:21,118 was aware of the Cloisters concerns 681 00:38:21,118 --> 00:38:23,716 and we would gladly accept a deferral of this application. 682 00:38:23,716 --> 00:38:26,038 So we can work with them, particularly 683 00:38:26,038 --> 00:38:27,358 on the stormwater issues. 684 00:38:27,358 --> 00:38:29,548 There are certain solutions that we can install, 685 00:38:29,548 --> 00:38:31,888 including dry wells or bio swales 686 00:38:31,888 --> 00:38:34,320 that would help mitigate the runoff from the Sports Court. 687 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,918 Again, the sports courts, only 750ft², 688 00:38:37,918 --> 00:38:40,228 but we would be more than willing to work with them 689 00:38:40,228 --> 00:38:45,178 And as staff to come up with an engineering solution to assuage 690 00:38:45,178 --> 00:38:50,788 their concerns about any runoff impacts Again I'm willing 691 00:38:50,788 --> 00:38:53,758 to, after this meeting, get the contact information 692 00:38:53,758 --> 00:38:57,118 for the Cloisters HOA and willing 693 00:38:57,118 --> 00:38:59,434 to meet with them With that, I would 694 00:38:59,434 --> 00:39:01,151 like to request a deferral. 695 00:39:01,151 --> 00:39:05,398 OK For 60 days or 30 days. 696 00:39:05,398 --> 00:39:08,938 I think 60 days since there are some design considerations I 697 00:39:08,938 --> 00:39:13,438 would allow us time to meet with the adjacent HOA 698 00:39:13,438 --> 00:39:15,058 and then come up with those solutions 699 00:39:15,058 --> 00:39:18,628 to be able to come back here with a better 700 00:39:18,628 --> 00:39:22,498 design plan that addresses their concerns Thank you 701 00:39:22,498 --> 00:39:23,458 And that's it. 702 00:39:23,458 --> 00:39:26,350 You have one minute and 16 seconds for rebuttal. 703 00:39:26,350 --> 00:39:27,478 I think I'm okay. 704 00:39:27,478 --> 00:39:28,168 All right. 705 00:39:28,168 --> 00:39:31,678 I would like to ask our You can have a seat, sir. 706 00:39:31,678 --> 00:39:36,208 Our board attorney if the applicant is 707 00:39:36,208 --> 00:39:39,718 requesting a deferral is that appropriate 708 00:39:39,718 --> 00:39:41,278 And could 60 days be possible? 709 00:39:41,278 --> 00:39:42,538 So I'd like you to speak to that. 710 00:39:42,538 --> 00:39:43,918 Yeah, of course. 711 00:39:43,918 --> 00:39:49,198 I mean, if a motion made to defer, then that at the board's 712 00:39:49,198 --> 00:39:50,593 pleasure and it can be. 713 00:39:50,593 --> 00:39:55,408 You're not bound by certain time limit similar to the Planning 714 00:39:55,408 --> 00:39:57,718 Commission which has a limited amount of time 715 00:39:57,718 --> 00:39:59,068 to recommend the City Council. 716 00:39:59,068 --> 00:40:04,238 So you may defer if, if you so choose All right. 717 00:40:04,238 --> 00:40:04,738 Thank you. 718 00:40:04,738 --> 00:40:05,638 That's what I want to know. 719 00:40:05,638 --> 00:40:07,388 Do we have a time constraint to. 720 00:40:07,388 --> 00:40:07,888 All right. 721 00:40:07,888 --> 00:40:08,488 Thank you. 722 00:40:08,488 --> 00:40:11,698 So I'll close the public portion and now 723 00:40:11,698 --> 00:40:18,508 have discussion with the board Mr. Bardwell, 724 00:40:18,508 --> 00:40:21,408 I got a question for liquid and a question for the applicant. 725 00:40:21,408 --> 00:40:21,968 For liquid. 726 00:40:21,968 --> 00:40:23,368 Appreciate it. 727 00:40:23,368 --> 00:40:24,187 I think you said it. 728 00:40:24,187 --> 00:40:28,108 I might have misunderstood There was a request for a variance 729 00:40:28,108 --> 00:40:33,778 a while ago to go from 35% impervious to 40% impervious. 730 00:40:33,778 --> 00:40:37,408 So it was not a variance per the development code. 731 00:40:37,408 --> 00:40:40,258 You can increase by 5%. 732 00:40:40,258 --> 00:40:45,478 If you do extra mitigation So when I built the pool, 733 00:40:45,478 --> 00:40:47,668 they got 5% more. 734 00:40:47,668 --> 00:40:49,340 So they had a maximum of 40%. 735 00:40:49,340 --> 00:40:49,891 OK. 736 00:40:49,891 --> 00:40:52,372 But there was a variance for the pool. 737 00:40:52,372 --> 00:40:54,781 Is they were given a variance ? 738 00:40:54,781 --> 00:40:56,244 Yes, There was some process there. 739 00:40:56,244 --> 00:40:59,128 Right now, though, I think there was a miscommunication. 740 00:40:59,128 --> 00:41:03,328 There was never a variance They just had the extra 5%, 741 00:41:03,328 --> 00:41:05,398 the pool was with mitigation. 742 00:41:05,398 --> 00:41:06,838 The pool could be there. 743 00:41:06,838 --> 00:41:08,378 And so it was just during a primary phase. 744 00:41:08,378 --> 00:41:08,878 OK. 745 00:41:08,878 --> 00:41:11,800 Because that was also in their application as well stated that. 746 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,072 So it was that communicated to the contractor 747 00:41:14,072 --> 00:41:16,048 or was a community to the homeowner 748 00:41:16,048 --> 00:41:20,548 that they now had up to 40%. 749 00:41:20,548 --> 00:41:24,658 I will assume the contractor whoever was in the primary phase 750 00:41:24,658 --> 00:41:26,008 whoever was representing them. 751 00:41:26,008 --> 00:41:26,788 Okay. 752 00:41:26,788 --> 00:41:29,686 And your other question, Mr. My Second question to the applicant 753 00:41:29,686 --> 00:41:33,546 and Sam, can you put up the recommendations, slide so if I 754 00:41:33,546 --> 00:41:35,788 understand, if we were to approve this there's 755 00:41:35,788 --> 00:41:39,238 three recommendations from staff Um, 756 00:41:39,238 --> 00:41:45,746 screw meaning a storm water plan and removal of the light pole. 757 00:41:45,746 --> 00:41:47,998 The thought I heard you say there are two additions 758 00:41:47,998 --> 00:41:50,502 or things I captured One of them, 759 00:41:50,502 --> 00:41:54,178 which was an additional 750ft² of impervious surface 760 00:41:54,178 --> 00:41:55,316 on the driveway in the front. 761 00:41:55,316 --> 00:41:56,968 I thought you said there was a second. 762 00:41:56,968 --> 00:41:58,858 I didn't capture That is correct. 763 00:41:58,858 --> 00:42:01,138 And these were sent we received these conditions 764 00:42:01,138 --> 00:42:02,788 in the staff report on Monday. 765 00:42:02,788 --> 00:42:04,738 And once we received those, we sent back 766 00:42:04,738 --> 00:42:08,640 two additional conditions to staff earlier today this morning 767 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,728 i can read that I have copies if you'd like to read them, 768 00:42:11,728 --> 00:42:14,326 or I can read them into the record. 769 00:42:14,326 --> 00:42:15,359 Just read them into the record. 770 00:42:15,359 --> 00:42:19,528 So the applicant's proposed condition number four states 771 00:42:19,528 --> 00:42:23,998 the applicant shall replace approximately 765ft² of existing 772 00:42:23,998 --> 00:42:27,628 impervious area on the subject property with pervious pavers 773 00:42:27,628 --> 00:42:31,078 and equivalent amount to the area of the sports court 774 00:42:31,078 --> 00:42:32,518 to offset the sports courts. 775 00:42:32,518 --> 00:42:37,680 Lot coverage impact number Five The applicant 776 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,448 shall install mitigation improvements 777 00:42:39,448 --> 00:42:41,458 as shown in red text on the site plan 778 00:42:41,458 --> 00:42:44,758 titled our Boy Site Plan dashboard Support 779 00:42:44,758 --> 00:42:46,198 PDF,

00:45:35,128 --> 00:45:36,898 So you got the strip of trees there. 846 00:45:36,898 --> 00:45:37,808 You see the red dot? 847 00:45:37,808 --> 00:45:38,308 Yes. 848 00:45:38,308 --> 00:45:39,928 That's the subject property. 849 00:45:39,928 --> 00:45:41,758 And you've got like two strip of trees. 850 00:45:41,758 --> 00:45:44,398 And then there there that whole complex behind them. 851 00:45:44,398 --> 00:45:54,868 Okay Thank you Member bardwell. 852 00:45:54,868 --> 00:45:56,368 Well, here's my thought. 853 00:45:56,368 --> 00:45:59,068 If the applicant's willing to defer this and work 854 00:45:59,068 --> 00:46:02,428 with the homeowners association on the condo association 855 00:46:02,428 --> 00:46:04,708 back there I would make a motion that we 856 00:46:04,708 --> 00:46:11,218 allow this to be deferred for the requested 60 days a second. 857 00:46:11,218 --> 00:46:13,408 Just we don't have to give a date a time, 858 00:46:13,408 --> 00:46:16,078 you will you don't just a point of order. 859 00:46:16,078 --> 00:46:21,658 If you can have you only required at one public hearing, 860 00:46:21,658 --> 00:46:26,368 you can postpone this for decision only, which means 861 00:46:26,368 --> 00:46:28,018 we've had the public hearing. 862 00:46:28,018 --> 00:46:30,388 It comes back to you for a decision 863 00:46:30,388 --> 00:46:33,298 so you can still discuss ask questions. 864 00:46:33,298 --> 00:46:34,469 Just wanted to make that point. 865 00:46:34,469 --> 00:46:35,788 Now you can defer the whole thing 866 00:46:35,788 --> 00:46:38,153 again, have another public hearing, if you like. 867 00:46:38,153 --> 00:46:40,610 But I just wanted to be aware Madam Chair. 868 00:46:40,610 --> 00:46:41,110 OK. 869 00:46:41,110 --> 00:46:43,288 I think deferring for a public hearing makes sense 870 00:46:43,288 --> 00:46:47,128 because if there's other additional change 871 00:46:47,128 --> 00:46:50,278 as things like that, then we can have a de novo hearing again. 872 00:46:50,278 --> 00:46:51,478 Yes Okay. 873 00:46:51,478 --> 00:46:54,028 So there's a motion on the floor for a deferral. 874 00:46:54,028 --> 00:46:55,750 Is there a second? 875 00:46:55,750 --> 00:46:57,128 A second meeting. 876 00:46:57,128 --> 00:47:00,448 And sorry, real quick, is that the October six meeting 877 00:47:00,448 --> 00:47:02,973 or the i'm sorry, October 7? 878 00:47:02,973 --> 00:47:08,390 Are we doing the Sixth day request at 60 days? 879 00:47:08,390 --> 00:47:13,355 So that'll make it up to and I know that our our attorney said, 880 00:47:13,355 --> 00:47:15,474 we're not tied, they're not tied to that. 881 00:47:15,474 --> 00:47:18,238 So it could be okay. 882 00:47:18,238 --> 00:47:20,144 It could be September, it could be later. 883 00:47:20,144 --> 00:47:22,609 But there's a deferral on the floor. 884 00:47:22,609 --> 00:47:27,898 OK And there's a second on the floor And all those in favor 885 00:47:27,898 --> 00:47:35,470 say
