Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes Tuesday January 21, 2020

12:00 PM

Members Present: Breanne Forbes-Hubbard, Kevin Wingard, Michael Braswell, Michael Pollard

Members Absent: Jordan Pennington, Ric Watts, Susan Long

Others: Sally Morgan, Amy Dula, Chuck Brewster, David McGee, Cathy Stevenson Gott, Guy Odum, Lonnie Whitley, R.L. Light, Eric Eiler, and other citizens

I. Call to Order

Mr. Pollard called the meeting to order at 12:09 pm.

II. Brief Update and Comments from Staff and Commission Members

Mr. Pollard welcomed members of the public and assured them that the Planning Commission will consider all concerns and comments before finalizing the proposed zoning ordinance and map revisions.

City Planner, Ms. Morgan, reminded everyone about the open house informational session on the proposed zoning changes on January 23 to review the draft ordinance and due to the regular meeting falling on a holiday, the next regular meeting is rescheduled to February 18.

III. Comments from Members of the Public on Non-Agenda Items

Cathy Stevenson Gott asked the Planning Commission to consider removing the proposed zoning revision at 236 and 248 Bonham Road from consideration. She said that the Robin Circle neighborhood had battled three previous rezoning requests for this property. Ms. Gott provided copies of a summary of the rezoning history, a petition signed by area residents opposing any rezoning, and copies of several deeds pertaining to the property. She raised the issue of a private right-of-way on the west side of the subject property which she said was land owned by Southern States, as well as her understanding that there is a deed restriction on the property that restricts commercial development.

Mr. Pollard stated that the Commission is not always familiar with the history of properties and uses its best information it has at the time to consider proposed zoning revisions. Mr. Wingard commented that the Commission is trying to provide a more uniform future land use map, and also that if there in fact are deed restrictions on a property, those would take precedent over whatever zoning category was on the map.

Guy Odum expressed concerns if the proposed rezoning would involve rerouting the exit at Robin Circle to Alexis Drive to minimize traffic accidents.

Page 4: PLANNING COMMISSION Work Session Council Chambers …...Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes Tuesday January 21, 2020 12:00 PM Members Present: Breanne Forbes-Hubbard, Kevin

Mr. Lonnie Whitely encouraged the Planning Commission and City Council to heed the public's concerns and comments and research the history of the proposed zoning revisions.

Mr. R. L. Light commended Commission and city staff for listening to the citizens’ concerns.

Mr. Eric Eiler expressed concerns regarding the proposed rezoning and asked the Planning Commission to research the history of this prior to making revisions.

Mr. Wingard made a motion to approve the work session minutes. Mr. Braswell seconded the motion.

Yes: Wingard, Braswell, PollardAbstentions: Forbes-Hubbard

V. Old Business: None

VI. New Business

1. Consider Preliminary Plat Approval for The Falls Plat 01-2020 (Lots 16 and 17)

Ms. Morgan stated that the subdivision applicant, Interstate Development Partners, is seeking preliminary plat approval to divide a tract of land identified as 225-4-17 into two (2) lots. Ms. Morgan stated that the subject property (zoned B-3) is located between Buffalo Wild Wings and Aldi on Falls Boulevard and owned by the City and is part of The Falls commercial development.

Ms. Morgan reported that the tract consists of approximately 400+ of linear feet of frontage and the resulting tracts consists of two lots, Lot 16 of (2.25 acres) and Lot 17 (1.22 acres). Ms. Morgan reportedthat various easements are on the plat including a BVU easement for sanitary and sewer; an easement towards the front of the tract for utilities; and a shared access connecting between Aldi and Lot 17. (Staff report is included in the minutes).

Ms. Morgan stated that staff is waiting for BVU’s comments which will be considered prior to final plat approval. Ms. Morgan recommended that the Planning Commission approve the preliminary plat.

Mr. Pollard asked if there are prospective tenants. Ms. Morgan stated there is a prospective tenant.

Mr. Wingard made a motion to approve the preliminary plat for The Falls Plat 01-2020 (Lots 16 and 17). Ms. Forbes-Hubbard seconded the motion.

Yes: Braswell, Forbes-Hubbard, Pollard, WingardNo: None

2. Consider Addendum to July 1, 2019 Revised Zoning Ordinance Draft Staff recommends approval of the addendum to the July 1 draft.

Ms. Morgan reported that due to the lapse of time since the July 1, draft-zoning ordinance was completed, city staff has encountered a few minor changes or additions that are recommended to be added to the document. Ms. Morgan stated that rather than creating a new draft before the Open House sessions, staff would like the Planning Commission to consider an addendum to the draft containing the attached revisions. (Addendum attached to the minutes).

There was a consensus by the Planning Commission to postpone the item until all comments and concerns are received from the Open House.

Mr. Wingard made a motion to postpone the item until after all comments and concerns are received from the Open House. Mr. Braswell seconded the motion.

Yes: Forbes-Hubbard, Wingard, Braswell, PollardNo: None

Ms. Morgan added to the comments from members of the public clearly stating that rerouting the exit at Robin Circle is not part of the proposed revision. Ms. Morgan pointed out that only the frontage lots on Bonham Road are being considered for rezoning from R-1 to B-1, and not any part of the subdivision.

Mr. Pollard stated that the proposed lots in question are on the east side of the 50-foot right of way.

Mr. Pollard asked the Commission whether they wanted to consider action now regarding these two lots in question or to wait to take action after the January 23 Open House.

Mr. Wingard recommended waiting until after the January 23 Open House.

Ms. Forbes-Hubbard recommended asking the City Attorney to research the history of the two lots before taking action regarding the two lots.

VII. Adjournment

The meeting adjourned at 12:45 pm.

PLANNING COMMISSIONAGENDA ITEM SUMMARY

Meeting Date: February 3, 2020 Department: Community & EconomicDevelopment

Staff Contact: Amy Dula,

AGENDA ITEM WORDING:1. Consider Comments from Open House Sessions on Proposed Zoning Ordinance and Map Changes

ITEM BACKGROUND:Approximately 22 people attended the January 23 Open House sessions held regarding the proposedchanges to the zoning ordinance and maps. We had 3 Planning Commissioners and one Councilmember attend. The majority of the attendees were from the Robin Circle neighborhood and voicedconcerns about the proposed change on the zoning map of lots at the intersection of Robin Circle andBonham Road. (The proposed change was to go from R-1 zoning to B-1 District). The subject propertyis shown as Local Commercial on the Future Land Use Map due to its frontage on Bonham Road andsurrounding business zoning, thereby the recommended zoning change. The residents who live in thesubdivision to the west of the property raised concerns about traffic exiting onto Robin Circle. Due tothe current traffic pattern at this location, it could be difficult to have entrances directly onto BonhamRoad. It is the staff recommendation that the recommended zoning change be omitted at this time fromthe proposed zoning map, and consideration be delayed until a specific use and a site plan is proposedas a part of a separate rezoning request. One additional written comment was received from CentrePoint LLC which owns land zoned R-2 at the western city boundary on Island Road requestingconsideration of business zoning at this location. (See map attached to Comment Sheet). Because thisspecific tract is not shown as Commercial on the Future Land Use map, city staff is not recommendingthat the zoning map be changed at this time, however we do recommend that this area be considered forfuture land use map and zoning map revisions. Attached is a scanned copy of the Comment Sheetsfrom the Jan. 23 Sessions.

PREVIOUS RELEVANT ACTION:None

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends leaving the lots on Bonham Road (at Robin Circle) zoned R-1 at this time. DOCUMENTATION: OpenHouseCommentSHEETS.pdf

Staff Contact: Amy Dula,

AGENDA ITEM WORDING:3. Consider List of Permitted and Special Uses

ITEM BACKGROUND:City staff has taken the Land Use Matrix found in the Draft Ordinance on Pages 13-20 and put thatinformation in a different format. This format might be easier to use as we often receive inquiriesabout what uses are permitted in a particular zone and these charts allow those questions to beanswered easier than using the Matrix. We would like the Commission's opinion on this. It couldbe incorporated in the draft document in Division 3 replacing the Matrix sheets and numbered insequence. Attached is the new format for your review.

PLANNING COMMISSIONAGENDA ITEM SUMMARY

Meeting Date: February 3, 2020 Department: Community & EconomicDevelopment

Staff Contact: Sally Morgan, City Planner

AGENDA ITEM WORDING:4. Consider Zoning at Corner of Peters St. and Norway St. Tax Map No. 25-7-5-15

ITEM BACKGROUND:The property line of the subject property has been relocated leaving the 0.3 acre parcel as a split-zonedproperty. About 2/3 of the tract is zoned B-1 and the remaining 1/3 of the acreage is zoned M-2. Theproperty is on the market and the owner has had some inquiries. He would like to know what zoneapplies, so he knows what can be located on the property. Because we are finalizing a revised zoningmap draft, staff believes this is good timing to discuss with the Commission. Recommendation wouldbe B-1. Current City Code Section 50-73 (5) states that the Planning Commission may extend the zonethat includes the greatest portion of the tract to the remainder of the tract.

PREVIOUS RELEVANT ACTION:None.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends that the Planning Commission determine which zone should apply to this entiretract. DOCUMENTATION: Property at Corner of Peters St.docx
