[Public Hearing Item 2]
ON TO THE PUBLIC HEARINGS.THE FIRST ITEM UNDER PUBLIC HEARINGS IS ITEM NUMBER TWO.
IT IS THE PRO BROADWAY BANQUET HALL.
IT'S A REQUEST FOR A BANQUET HALL WITH ON SALES SERVICE.
IT IS SECRET EXEMPT AND STAFF IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL.
THE ITEM BEFORE YOU TODAY IS THE BROADWAY BANQUET HALL PROJECT.
UM, THE APPLICANT IS HONEY TOMO ON BEHALF OF MAR THOMA LLC.
THE PROJECT DESCRIPTION, UM, IS THAT THE PROJECT INVOLVES THE DEMOLITION OF EXISTING COMMERCIAL STRUCTURES ON THE PROPERTY AT 1120 BROADWAY AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 21,583 SQUARE FOOT BANQUET HALL
[00:10:01]
WITH ASSOCIATED PARKING LOT LIGHTING AND LANDSCAPING.THEY ARE ALSO PROPOSING ON SALE ALCOHOL SERVICE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE BANQUET HALL.
UM, SO I'LL ALCOHOL SERVICE ALONG WITH FOOD.
THE PROPOSED HOURS OF OPERATION ARE DAILY FROM 11:00 AM TO 2:00 AM, AND THE BANQUET HALL DOES HAVE A MAXIMUM CAPACITY OF UP TO 1000 GUESTS.
THE SITE AT 1120 BROADWAY IS A DESIGNATED GENERAL COMMERCIAL AND THE GENERAL PLAN, WHICH IS INTENDED FOR A WIDE VARIETY OF COMMERCIAL USES.
AND IT IS ALSO ZONED TO CG OR GENERAL COMMERCIAL.
A CUP IS REQUIRED FOR A BANQUET HALL, UM, AS IT IS A PUBLIC ASSEMBLY USE AND A CUP IS ALSO REQUIRED FOR ON SALE ALCOHOL SERVICE, UM, BOTH WITHIN THE CGS ZONE.
THIS IS AN AERIAL IMAGE OF THE SUBJECT SITE ON BROADWAY BETWEEN FIRST AND ORO STREET.
IT IS AN L-SHAPED PARCEL, APPROXIMATELY 1.48 ACRES.
AND HERE YOU CAN SEE THE EXISTING, SMALL COMMERCIAL BUILDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PROPERTY, UM, AND SURFACE PARKING LOT.
UM, IT'S MOST RECENTLY BEEN USED AS A LEASING FACILITY.
THERE IS THE BROADWAY CREEK CHANNEL THAT RUNS ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIMETER OF THE SITE.
UM, AND THE SITE IS ALSO WITHIN PORTIONS OF OUR, WITHIN THE 100 AND 500 YEAR FLOOD ZONE SO THAT THE BUILDING DOES HAVE TO BE RAISED SLIGHTLY ABOVE THE BASE FLOOD ELEVATION TO ACCOUNT FOR THAT.
IT IS THE SITE PLAN I HAD TO ORIENTATE ORIENTED.
AND SO THE NORTH WOULD BE THE LEFT SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN, AND IT SHOWS THAT THE BANQUET HALL ITSELF IS LOCATED IN THE CORNER, THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE SITE, UM, WHICH MADE THE MOST SENSE FOR THE APPLICANT IN TERMS OF LAYING OUT THE LARGE FOOTPRINT NEEDED FOR THE BANQUET HALL.
THERE ARE 104 PARKING SPACES, UM, AND THE REMAINDER OF THE SITE, AND THERE'S NEW LANDSCAPING LOCATED ALONG THIS FRONT SETBACK, AS WELL AS IN FINGER ISLANDS THROUGHOUT THE PARKING LOT.
THERE ALSO BEING NEW LIGHTING STANDARDS AS WELL.
THE FLOOR PLAN, UM, AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE TWO LOBBIES THAT ARE ACCESSED FROM THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE BUILDING.
UM, AND THIS ALLOWS FOR THE LARGE BANQUET SPACE TO BE DIVIDED UP INTO TWO SMALLER BANQUET SPACES IF NEEDED.
THERE ARE ALSO BATHROOMS ON THE FIRST FLOOR AND A KITCHEN FACILITY ON THE SECOND FLOOR, THERE IS STORAGE, UM, AND AN ELEVATOR TO ACCESS, UM, ITEMS THAT WILL NEED TO BE STORED FOR THE BANQUET HALLS, WHICH IS CHAIRS AND TABLES AND THOSE TYPES OF THINGS.
THIS IS, UH, TWO OF THE ELEVATIONS.
THE WEST ELEVATION, AS I MENTIONED, IS THE PRIMARY ENTRANCE TO THE BANQUET HALL.
UM, AND YOU CAN SEE THOSE STOREFRONT GLASS SYSTEMS, UM, UH, DEMARCATING THOSE TWO ENTRANCES.
THERE ARE, UM, WIDE VARIETY OF DIFFERENT MATERIALS THAT ARE USED ON THEN THE CONTEMPORARY DESIGN YOU'LL SEE THAT THERE'S, YOU KNOW, SOME COOL AND WARM EARTH TONES, UM, IN THE FORM OF STUCCO, SOME METAL CLADDING AROUND THE PILLARS, AS WELL AS THE WOODGRAIN, UM, METAL PANELING, THE BROWN MATERIAL THAT YOU SEE, UM, AND AS WELL AS SINCE SCAM USE STUCCO.
SO WE DID WORK WITH THE APPLICANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAD EXPRESSION OR ARCHITECTURE, UM, ON EACH OF THE SITES.
SO YOU'LL SEE THAT THERE'S SOME WRAPAROUND, IF SOME FEATURES HERE ON THE SOUTH ELEVATION, UM, WHICH FACES BROADWAY, ALTHOUGH IT'S NOT COMPLETELY VISIBLE BECAUSE OF THE BUILDINGS BETWEEN BROADWAY AND THE BANQUET HALL, THE NORTH AND THE EAST ELEVATION EAST ELEVATION IS CLOSE TO THE PROPERTY LINE.
SO IT HAS NO WINDOWS OR ENTRANCES.
AND THE NORTH ELEVATION WOULD BE WHAT FACES THE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE NORTH, UM, THAT IS WITHIN UNINCORPORATED SAN DIEGO COUNTY.
BUT THERE ARE SEVERAL RESIDENCES LOCATED, UM, JUST TO THE NORTH OF THIS PROPERTY.
AND THIS IS A RENDERING OF THE BANQUET HALL, UM, WHEN COMPLETED AND POTENTIALLY OPERATIONAL, UM, AND KIND OF, YOU CAN SEE ALL THE DIFFERENT MATERIALS AND COLORS THAT I MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY, LAND USE AND DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE PROJECT.
UM, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A NEW MODERN BANQUET FACILITY, UH, WITH A CONTEMPORARY DESIGN.
AND IT IS A FACILITY THAT WAS BUILT AND INTENDED TO BE USED AS A BANQUET HALL FACILITY.
THERE ARE FIVE OTHER BANQUET, UM, IN ALCOHOL.
HOWEVER, MOST OF THESE ARE AN OLDER BUILDINGS THAT DON'T QUITE HAVE THE AMENITIES AND THE LAYOUT THAT THIS PARTICULAR FACILITY WILL HAVE,
[00:15:01]
BUT IT ALSO HAS THE ABILITY TO ACCOMMODATE LARGER EVENTS.IT IS LOCATED ON THE BROADWAY CORRIDOR, WHICH IS A COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR.
UM, ALTHOUGH WE HAVE SEEN IN RECENT YEARS THAT THERE IS VERY LOW DEMAND FOR COMMERCIAL NEW COMMERCIAL SPACES.
UM, THERE'S BEEN LOTS OF EMPTY VACANT BUILDINGS, UM, SITTING, YOU KNOW, FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.
SO WE DO SEE THAT THERE, THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS TO HAVE BEEN CONVERTED TO NON-COMMERCIAL USES SUCH AS THE WALGREENS THAT WAS CONVERTED TO THE, UM, PAIGE CENTER AT SECOND AND BROADWAY.
AND THEN THERE'S THE FORMER GROCERY STORE JUST TO THE WEST OF THAT, THAT IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING CONVERTED TO A CHURCH.
SO WE DO SEE THAT AS A POTENTIAL VIABLE USE OF SOME OF THESE OLDER COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES THAT MAY NOT, YOU KNOW, POTENTIALLY BE OF INTEREST FOR FURTHER COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, TO BE MORE DEVELOPED WITH THESE TYPES OF USES IN TERMS OF COMPATIBILITY.
THE PROPERTY IS PRIMARILY SURROUNDED BY COMMERCIAL USES TO THE SOUTH, THE EAST AND THE WEST.
HOWEVER, THERE ARE, THERE ARE RESIDENTIAL USES TO THE NORTH.
AND SO WE'VE THOUGHT VERY CAREFULLY THROUGH SOME CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL THAT WE THINK WILL HELP TO ENSURE COMPATIBILITY WITH SOME OF THE LARGER EVENTS OR EVENTS THAT MAY CONTINUE ON INTO THE EVENING HOURS.
THE LAST CONSIDERATION IS THE PARKING REDUCTION THAT IS REQUESTED.
SO THROUGH THE ZONING CODE, UM, COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES HAVE THE ABILITY TO REQUEST THAT UP TO 800 SQUARE FEET OF THEIR FLOOR AREA BE EXEMPT FROM PARKING.
UM, AND THIS PROVISION WAS REALLY INTENDED FOR, YOU KNOW, OLDER COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES THAT MAYBE NEEDED SOME ADDITIONAL STORAGE SPACE, BUT THEY WERE CONSTRAINED WITH LACK OF PARKING.
UM, BUT IN USING IT HERE, IT ALLOWS FOR A PORTION OF THAT SECOND STORY SPACE FOR STORAGE, UM, TO NOT REQUIRE PARKING.
THE REST OF THE SITE IS PARKED AT THE RATIO OF ONE SPACE PER 200 SQUARE FEET OF FLOOR AREA, WHICH IS THE STANDARD FOR A PUBLIC ASSEMBLY USE.
SO THERE'S SIMPLY REQUESTING A REDUCTION OF FOUR SPACE CONDITIONS.
SO THE APPROVAL WILL INCLUDE, UM, A FEW THAT ARE INTENDED TO ENSURE COMPATIBILITY WITH ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL USES.
THE FIRST IS THAT THE OPERATOR PROVIDE A PARKING LOT ATTENDANT FOR EVENTS THAT WOULD EXTEND BEYOND 10:00 PM.
THE INTENT THERE IS THAT WE ENSURE THAT THE ACTIVITIES AND THE PARKING LOT IS PEOPLE ARE LEAVING, OR YOU MAY BE CONTINUING THE EVENING, BUT STEPPING OUTSIDE DO NOT BECOME A DISTURBANCE TO THE NEIGHBORS, EITHER WITH NOISE OR LIGHTING OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ACTIVITY.
UM, THAT WILL BE A MASONRY WALL THAT'S REQUIRED ALONG THE NORTHERN PROPERTY LINE.
UM, THIS WOULD BE ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE CHANNEL AND, UH, THIS WILL ALSO HELP WITH ANY POTENTIAL NOISE OR MAYBE LIGHTS FROM VEHICLES AS THEY'RE ENTERING AND EXITING THE FACILITY.
AND THEN LASTLY, THERE IS A CONDITION OF APPROVAL FOR AN EVENT MANAGEMENT PLAN.
AND THIS IS FOR MUCH LARGER EVENTS.
SO EVENTS OVER 500 GUESTS, WHERE THERE COULD BE A NEED FOR OVERFLOW PARKING, OR THERE COULD BE A, A LARGE NUMBER OF VEHICLES TRYING TO ACCESS THE SITE AT ONE TIME.
AND SO HERE WE WOULD BE LOOKING FOR THE APPLICANT OPERATOR JUST TO PUT TOGETHER A PLAN FOR HOW THEY'RE GOING TO ACCOMMODATE THAT.
UM, AND WE THINK THAT'LL ENSURE SMOOTH OPERATIONS AND CONTINUE COMPATIBILITY OF THIS PROJECT WITH THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD PROJECT IS EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT UNDER A SECTION 32 AND PHILLIPS ASSUMPTION.
SO THAT IS FOUR URBANIZED PROPERTIES OF FIVE ACRES OR LESS, UM, THAT HAVE NO POTENTIAL FOR HABITAT OR FOR OTHER IMPACTS.
AND SO THIS PROPERTY IS COMPLETELY DISTURBED AND HAS BEEN DEVELOPED PREVIOUSLY.
UM, AND NONE OF THE EXCEPTIONS TO THE CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION APPLY HERE.
SO WE BELIEVE THAT THIS IS INAPPROPRIATE EXEMPTION SINCE THAT'S RECOMMENDATION, IS THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION ADOPT THE NEXT RESOLUTIONS IN ORDER APPROVING THE SECRET EXEMPTION AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NUMBER 2020 DASH ZERO ZERO ZERO ONE SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS.
AND THAT CONCLUDES STAFF'S PRESENTATION.
I DO BELIEVE THE ARCHITECT, JEAN SAID PERONI, UM, IS AVAILABLE AS PART OF OUR ATTENDEES, UM, AND THE PROPERTY OWNER HONEYCOMB, AND MAY ALSO BE AVAILABLE.
UM, THERE'S I DID WANT TO ASK YOU A QUESTION BECAUSE WE'RE THERE TO SEE UPS REQUIRED.
ONE IS FOR THE BANQUET ON ONE IS FOR THE ONSET ALCOHOL SERVICE, BUT THIS LOOKS LIKE IT'S ONLY FOR ONE CUP.
[00:20:02]
MOTION THAT WE NEED TO MAKE AT THE END OF THIS? IT IS ONE CUP THAT COVERS BOTH CONDITIONAL USES.UM, AND THEN I KNOW, UM, AS WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THIS, THERE'S A PART OF THE DESIGN FOR THE LOBBY IS THAT IT'S DOUBLE DOOR TO KEEP THE NOISE OF THE BANQUET INSIDE THE BANQUET HALL, ESPECIALLY FOR LATE BANQUETS.
UM, NOISE ISSUES ARE ONE OF OUR GREATEST COMPLAINTS IN NEIGHBORHOODS.
AND EVEN THOUGH NORTH OF BROADWAY QUEEN BROADWAY CREEK ISN'T ELKA HOEHN CITY, WE DO WANT TO KEEP THE RESIDENTS HAPPY WITH OUR CITY.
SO, UH, ANY SOUND ABATEMENT ISSUES THAT WE CAN ADDRESS AHEAD OF TIME ARE WONDERFUL.
UM, I THINK YOU ALREADY MENTIONED THAT WE'VE GOT FIVE OTHER BANQUET HALLS IN AL CONE AND ALL OF THEM ARE OPERATING.
UM, AS FAR AS I KNOW, THEY'RE ALL IN OPERATION, ALTHOUGH I BELIEVE MANY OF THEM HAVE PAUSED HAVING EVENTS DURING THE PANDEMIC.
UM, ANY QUESTIONS FROM COMMISSIONERS FOR STAFF, MR.
THAT THE APPLICANT HAS STATED THAT THEY DO INTEND TO PUT UP RUDDER AND FENCING, UM, ALONG THE FRONTAGE, AS WELL AS VEHICULAR GATES TO SECURE THE PROPERTY WHEN IT'S NOT IN USE.
AND THERE'LL BE PLENTY OF LIGHTING.
THERE'LL BE REQUIRED TO DO A PHOTOMETRIC STUDY AS WELL AS PART OF THE BUILDING FROM IT TO ENSURE THEY HAVE ADEQUATE LIGHTING.
AND, UM, I JUST HAVE A QUICK QUESTION.
THIS WAS KIND OF, I GUESS, IN REFERENCE TO THE FINDINGS ITEM D UM, IT TALKS ABOUT THINGS, YOU KNOW, NOT BEING LIMITED TO MATTERS OF NOISE, SMOKE DUST, YOU KNOW, AND SO FORTH.
AND I KNOW THAT LIKE ALCOHOL AND HAS A SMOKING ORDINANCE THAT EVEN EXTENDS TO OUTSIDE AREAS, HOW DOES THAT COME INTO PLAY WITH THIS, UM, WITH THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT, BUT THIS SUBJECT, UM, OR THIS DEVELOPMENT WOULD BE SUBJECT TO OUR TOBACCO ORDINANCE, JUST LIKE ANY OTHER, UM, PLACE OF BUSINESS OR PUBLIC PLACE OF ACCOMMODATION WOULD BE SUBJECT TO IT.
SO THERE WOULD BE NO SMOKING INDOORS OR OUTDOORS ANY OTHER COMMISSIONERS HAVE QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? ALL RIGHT.
UH, LET'S GO AHEAD AND OPEN UP THE PUBLIC HEARING, UH, STAFF.
DID WE GET ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS FROM PARTICIPANTS WE HAVE NOT AS OF YET.
THE ARCHITECT WAS JEAN, YOU SAID BERNIE IS THE ARCHITECT, JEAN THE BROWNIE.
JEAN WOULD LOVE TO ANSWER A QUICK QUESTION ABOUT THE SOUND ABATEMENT FOR THE BUILDING.
UM, WE HAVE HIRED, UM, ELDER ASSOCIATES, A ACOUSTICAL ENGINEERING FIRM TO DO A STUDY OF THE EXTERIOR WALL THAT WE NEED TO MEET OR EXCEED, UH, THE SOUTH ORDINANCE.
UH, THERE'LL BE OUT THERE TAKING, UH, SOUND READINGS FROM AROUND THE PROPERTY TO INCORPORATE INTO THE REPORT, AND WE WILL DEVELOP A WALL SECTION THAT EXCEEDS THE SOUND ORDINANCE REQUIREMENTS.
ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE ARCHITECT WHILE WE HAVE THEM UP? NOPE.
THANK YOU, JEAN, FOR ANSWERING THAT QUESTION.
DO WE HAVE ANY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO WISH TO MAKE A COMMENT?
[00:25:05]
AND DO WE HAVE ANY COMMISSIONERS WHO HAVE A QUESTION FOR SOMEBODY OTHER THAN THE ARCHITECT, COMMISSIONER VIAS? UM, NOT SO MUCH A QUESTION, BUT JUST A COMMENT THAT I REALLY, THE DESIGN LOOKS REALLY NICE.UM, I THINK IT WOULD BE A NICE MODERNIZATION TO THAT AREA, AGAIN, LIVING IN OKLAHOMA AND FOR A LONG TIME, SOME OF THOSE AREAS HAVE STAYED LOOKING THE SAME FOR A FEW GENERATIONS.
SO, UM, IT LOOKS, IT REMINDS ME A LITTLE BIT OF, I DIDN'T KNOW IF THIS WAS THE SAME ARCHITECT THAT DID THE ANIMAL SHELTER, IT HAS A SIMILAR FEEL.
UM, BUT IT WAS A VERY NICE DESIGN I THOUGHT AS IT'S GOT A CONTEMPORARY LOOK, I WAS KIND OF SAD THAT IT COULDN'T BE, YOU KNOW, MORE FRONTED ON BROADWAY, SO YOU CAN SEE IT BETTER, BUT LOOKING AT THE LOTS AND THE WAY THE CHANNEL RUNS, THERE'S JUST NO WAY TO SQUEEZE IT IN THE FRONT AND PUT THE PARKING BEHIND IT.
I THOUGHT IT WAS A GREAT LOOKING BUILDING AND, UH, UNFORTUNATELY IT CAN'T COME OUT TOO FAR.
YOU ALL RIGHT? UM, I'LL MAKE A MOTION.
JUST A QUICK QUESTION REGARDING, BECAUSE I ACTUALLY KNOW THIS AREA, CAUSE I GO TO THE MEETINGS JUST DOWN THE STREET.
MY ONLY CONCERN IS NOT THAT ANYTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT IT, BUT IN REGARDS TO PARKING, GETTING IN AND OUT, BECAUSE IT'S SO CLOSE TO THAT LIGHT.
SO MY ONLY CONCERN IS TRAFFIC GOING IN AND OUT.
IT GOES REALLY KIND OF FUNCTION HOW THE TRAFFIC CONTROL CAN BE DONE.
AND THAT IS IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE TRYING TO TURN CAUSE A LOT OF CARS PARKED ON THAT STREET, THERE'S A LOT OF BLIND SPOTS AND NOT THAT THERE'S ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE, BUT IF IT COULD BE, YOU KNOW, LIKE A RIGHT TURN ONLY OR SOMETHING AND SOME OF THE EXITS JUST TO, YOU KNOW, AS OPPOSED TO THAT LIGHT, I DON'T KNOW.
I THINK COVID IS, THERE'S NOT AS MANY PEOPLE ON THE STREETS, BUT I'M JUST THINKING WHEN YOU HAVE MORE TRAFFIC, THAT'S PEOPLE, PEOPLE COULD USE THEIR COMMON SENSE HOPEFULLY, BUT IT JUST, JUST BECAUSE OF LOCATION GOING INTO THAT, OF THERE, THAT'S MY ONLY CONCERN.
OR MAYBE IF THERE'S NO PARKING BECAUSE THERE'S THE, ALL THE STREET PARKING, THERE IS A CERTAIN DISTANCE THAT CAN PUT A RED ZONE OR SOMETHING.
UH, MELISSA, YOU JUST MUTED YOURSELF.
UM, I WAS JUST GOING TO OFFER THAT.
WE COULD, UM, TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT THAT WITH THE EVENT MANAGEMENT PLAN TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY THAT COULD BE PUT IN PLACE DURING LARGE EVENTS TO HELP WITH THAT.
I WILL MAKE A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING SECOND.
ALRIGHT, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER.
UM, AS FAR AS OTHER DEVELOPMENTS, ONCE THIS BUILDING IS IN PLACE, THERE WILL PROBABLY BE MORE COMING BEFORE US.
UM, IT IS ONE OF THOSE WEIRD TWISTS OF WELL IT'S BANQUET HALL.
THE ON SALE USE EXCEEDS THE NUMBER OF ALLOWED LICENSES FOR THE ZONE, BUT NOBODY REALLY HAS A PROBLEM WITH THAT RIGHT NOW BECAUSE IT'S TIED TO EVENTS.
AND RIGHT NOW WE DON'T KNOW HOW MANY EVENTS ARE GOING TO HAPPEN.
THIS BUILDING WILL TAKE PROBABLY MORE THAN A YEAR TO GET BUILT BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO DEMOLISH FIRST AND GET ALL THE PLANS APPROVED.
BUT ONCE THE BUILDING IS UP AND RUNNING, I HOPE THAT OUR BUSINESS OWNERS ARE SUCCESSFUL AND THAT THEIR BUSINESS MODEL SUCCEEDS IN THIS AREA.
I KNOW THE CITY OF ELKO HAS LOTS OF BANQUET HALLS AND IT DOESN'T SEEM TO DETER PEOPLE FROM OPENING NEW BANQUET HALLS.
SO THAT'S A, WE'LL SEE IF THAT WORKS BETTER FOR BROADWAY.
WE'VE HAD A LOT OF BUSINESSES THAT HAVE COME AND GONE ON BROADWAY AND HOPEFULLY THIS ONE FITS.
WELL, UH, IF YOU THINK ABOUT WEDDINGS,
[00:30:01]
WEDDINGS ARE RECESSION PROOF, BUT EVEN WHEN THERE'S A RECESSION, WEDDINGS STILL GO ON, PEOPLE SPEND MONEY IN EVENTS LIKE THAT, BUT HOPEFULLY THAT WILL BE THE CASE.IT LOOKS NICE TO BUILDING, LIKE YOU SAID, UH, COMMISSIONER, UH, CIRCLE, UH, THAT, UH, IT'S SAD THAT IT'S GOING TO HAVE HIDDEN THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING WHERE IT'S SITTING TO THE SIDE, YOU KNOW, THE CONFIGURATION OF THE PROPERTY IS WHAT IT IS.
YOU CAN'T CHANGE THAT, BUT I THINK IT'S A GOOD PROJECT AND UH, YEAH, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION IF I MAY GO FOR IT.
I MOVE TO ADOPT THE NEXT RESOLUTION IN ORDER OF MOVING THE SEQUEL EXEMPT CUP NUMBER 2020 DASH ZERO ZERO ZERO ONE, THE OBJECT TO CONDITIONS.
SO TLA SECONDARY BY COMMISSION ROSE ROLL VOTE, PLEASE.
COMMISSIONER
MOTION CARRIED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE.
UM, FOR THE CUP, THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S ACTION ON THIS ITEM IS FINAL UNLESS APPEALED WITH THE FILING OF A FORM AND THE PAYMENT OF A FILING FEE NO LATER THAN 5:00 PM ON MONDAY, APRIL 19TH, 2021 IN THE CITY CLERKS OFFICE.
[4. OTHER ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION]
OUR NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA, IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN, IT'S APRIL.AND I KEEP THINKING THAT IT KEEPS MOVING BACK, BUT IT'S ALWAYS AN APRIL, UH, TIME TO ELECT A CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR FOR THE NEXT YEAR.
AND SO IF ANYBODY HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS, THEY WANT TO PUT FORTH.
IF THEY WANT TO MAKE A MOTION ON SHOVING SOMEBODY IN THE CHAIR SEAT, UH, THAT WAS THE TIME TO DO IT.
WELL, I'LL MAKE A MOTION, UH, FOR COMMISSIONER.
I WILL SECOND THAT I'LL LET COMMISSIONER PAUL CRUDE SECOND THAT AS LONG AS COMMISSIONER, SO TLA IS OKAY WITH IT.
A MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER ROSE SECOND BY COMMISSIONER POLLOCK.
SO TLA, UH, WE DO NEED A VICE CHAIR FOR ANY TIMES THAT A CHAIR IS NOT AVAILABLE AND UH, I'D LIKE TO MAKE IT FREE.
UH, FOR VICE CHAIR, I WILL SECOND THAT LONG AS COMMISSIONER ROSE IS OKAY WITH IT.
SO TLA SECOND BY COMMISSIONER SERCO OR ROLL VOTE.
COMMISSIONER
MOTION CARRIED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE.
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR VICE CHAIR.
[5. STAFF COMMUNICATIONS]
PROJECT UPDATES FROM THE STAFF.LET ME JUST SHARE MY SCREEN QUICKLY.
SO I PROVIDED THIS TO YOU BEFORE, UM, WHICH IS JUST AN UPDATE OF SOME OF
[00:35:01]
THE BIGGER PROJECTS THAT ARE EITHER UNDER CONSTRUCTION, UM, THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED OR ARE UNDER REVIEW.UM, SO IN TERMS OF WHAT WE HAVE GOING ON UNDER CONSTRUCTION ALCOHOL RIGHT NOW, LEGACY TOWNHOMES IS THE FIRST PROJECT, UM, FEATURED THERE ON WASHINGTON.
AND THERE'S STILL, AS YOU CAN SEE, STILL WORKING ON SITE WORK THOUGH, THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDINGS ARE LOOKING FAIRLY WELL COMPLETED.
THE ROCKY HILL POINT PROJECT, UM, WHICH IS ON ANESTHESIA COURT, OFF OF WASHINGTON, 26, NEW TOWNHOMES.
UM, THAT ONE IS MOVING ALONG QUICKLY AND I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO BE SEEKING OCCUPANCY OF SOME OF THOSE FIRST UNITS HERE SHORTLY, THE LEXINGTON AVENUE APARTMENTS PROJECTS.
THAT'S A 10 UNIT PROJECT OVER AT TWO 35 EAST LEXINGTON ACROSS FROM THE FIRE STATION.
UM, THAT ONE IS GOING UP QUITE QUICKLY.
SO DRIVE FIVE WHEN YOU GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO, SO YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THE WORK THAT'S GOING ON THERE.
I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE A GREAT PROJECT AND ADD A LOT TO THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
IS THAT WHAT'S GOING ON RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE LIBRARY SOUTH? YES.
I WAS CURIOUS WHAT WAS GOING UP THERE.
UM, OVER ON WELLS, THERE ARE FOUR UNITS, TWO DUPLEXES THAT HAVE BEEN UNDER CONSTRUCTION FOR SOME TIME, YOU'RE GETTING READY, UM, TO COMPLETE THE FINAL SET OF REQUIREMENTS FOR THAT THE MAZDA DEALERSHIP AT FIVE 72 NORTH JOHNSON NEAR THE EIGHT FREEWAY.
UM, THAT ONE SEEMS TO BE CHANGING ON A DAILY BASIS.
THEY'RE STILL WORKING ON, UM, THE BASIC, UH, BUILDING WORK ON THAT PROJECT.
UM, AND NO UPDATES, UNFORTUNATELY ON THE ONE ZERO ONE EAST MAIN STREET MIXED USE PROJECT YET.
UM, WE'RE HOPEFUL THAT, THAT ONE'S STILL, WE'RE STILL GOING TO SEE A SHOVEL IN THE GROUND, BUT I HAVEN'T HEARD ANY MOVEMENTS IS THE NEW INDUSTRIAL BUILDING GOING UP AT EIGHT 50 WEST BRADLEY.
UM, AND IT'S A LITTLE HARD TO SEE I KEEP GOING BY THERE EVERY MONTH OR SO TO SEE IF I CAN SEE IT FROM THE STREET.
AND I CAN'T QUITE SO FAR, BUT I'M SURE WE WILL SOON THE NEW STARBUCKS AT EIGHT 50 NORTH SECOND.
UM, THEY'VE COMPLETED ALL THEIR FRAMING AND I THINK THEY'RE DOING STEREO AND INTERIOR WORK NOW, THE DEBT INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS.
THAT'S THE SECOND PHASE OF THE LARGE, UM, INDUSTRIAL PROJECT ON MARSHALL AVENUE.
SO THE NORTHERLY PART OF THAT SITE, UM, THEY'RE DOING SITE WORK NOW AND THEY SHOULD, UM, BE HAVING BUILDING PERMITS ISSUED ANY DAY.
NOW THEY'RE READY FOR ISSUANCE, THE MARSHAL PERSONAL STORAGE PROJECT OVER ON MARSHALL AVENUE.
UH, THAT ONE IS UNDER PLAN REVIEW, UM, IN OUR BUILDING DIVISION.
AND SO THEY'RE WORKING THROUGH ALL OF THAT, THE LEXINGTON SENIOR APARTMENTS PROJECT, THAT'S THE LARGE REHABILITATION PROJECT OVER A HUNDRED UNIT AFFORDABLE SENIOR PROJECT.
UM, SO NOT A LOT OF EXTERIOR WORK YET.
THEY'RE DOING A LOT OF THE INTERIOR WORK, BUT WE SHOULD HOPEFULLY SOON BE SEEING A SMALL FRONT EDITION, A LOBBY EDITION, AS WELL AS NEW PAINT AND NEW IMPROVEMENTS THERE.
THE PARKWAY PLAZA, SELF STORAGE PROJECT, THAT'S IN THE BASEMENT OF WHAT WAS THE FORMER SEARS BUILDING.
THE BUILDING PLANS ARE UNDER REVIEW FOR THAT PROJECT, AS WELL AS A NEW, UH, MIXED CONVERSION PROJECT AT THREE 33 WEST LEXINGTON.
THIS IS AN OLDER OFFICE BUILDING.
THAT'S ACTUALLY BEEN A BIT PROBLEMATIC IN RECENT YEARS, UM, BECAUSE OF TRANSIENT ACTIVITY AND THEY ARE GOING TO BE ADDING TWO RESIDENTIAL UNITS TO THAT.
AND, UM, REHABBING THAT STRUCTURE, PORTIONS OF THAT STRUCTURE.
UH, TWO 70 FLETCHER PARKWAY, THE OLD LONG JOHN SILVER WILL SOON BECOME A NEW MISSION FEDERAL CREDIT UNION.
UM, AND ABOUT WHEN IS UNDER REVIEW AS WELL IN THE BUILDING SIDE.
AND THEN YOU MAY HAVE HEARD QUITE A BIT ABOUT THIS ONE RECENTLY IN THE NEWS, THE DISTRIBUTION CENTER AT 12 AND QUIA MACRA, UM, WAS RECENTLY APPROVED.
SO THAT WILL BE A NEW OVER A HUNDRED THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT, UM, DISTRIBUTION CENTER.
UM, AND THAT WILL BRING IN SOME FUNDING TO COUNTY AIRPORTS WHO OWNS THE SITE THROUGH THE LONG-TERM LEASE OF THAT PROPERTY AS WELL AS POTENTIALLY SOME JOBS FOR ALCON.
UM, AND THEN IN TERMS OF APPROVED PROJECTS, I DON'T THINK ANY OF THESE ARE NEW TO YOU FOLKS.
UM, SIR, MOSTLY PROJECTS THAT HAVE COME THROUGH THE PLANNING COMMISSION IN RECENT YEARS STARTED TO DISTRICT AT 1338 EAST MAIN.
UM, THIS IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE MORE RECENT ONES, AS WELL AS THE BATTERY STORAGE AT TWO 22 NORTH JOHNSON.
AND THEN IN TERMS OF WHAT WE HAVE IN OUR QUEUE UNDER REVIEW RIGHT NOW, I'M PLANNING,
[00:40:01]
UM, AN EXPANSION TO ST.CENTER'S BEEN IN PROCESS FOR SOME TIME.
I THINK THEY HAD TO PUT THEIR PLANS ON HOLD FOR A LITTLE BIT WHILE THEY WORKED ON ANOTHER PROJECT.
UM, BUT WHAT I THINK WE'LL SEE THAT ONE BACK SOON, AND THERE'S A NEW SEVEN YEAR SEVEN UNIT TOWNHOUSE PROJECT OVER ON OAKDALE AND DURHAM, AND THAT WAS UNDER REVIEW.
UM, THERE'S A GAS STATION FOR POST GAS STATION AT SEVEN 20 SOUTH MELISSA.
THE APPLICANT HAS CHOSEN TO PLACE THAT ONE ON HOLD AND IS CURRENTLY CONSIDERING SOME OPTIONS THERE AND THEN DO HANGER AND MAINTENANCE BUILDING ON AIRPORT PROPERTY OVER ON KENNY STREETS, CIRCLE, AIR HANGAR, UM, HAS, UH, WAITING.
WE'RE WAITING FOR RESUBMITTAL ON THAT.
AND THEN, UM, AT 1369 EAST MAIN, SO NEAR MELODY AND EAST MAIN, THERE'S A MULTI-FAMILY COMMON INTEREST DEVELOPMENT.
UM, THAT'S UNDER REVIEW IN THAT LOCATION.
AND ONE SECOND, THE VACANT LOCATION, THEIR OFFICES WERE ON THE CORNER.
UM, THE, FOR MELODY, THE MELODY CONDOMINIUM PROJECT, IT IS A PORTION OF THE TRAILER PARK.
UM, THAT'S LOCATED THERE THAT WAS RV STORAGE.
UM, IT'S BEEN USED FOR RV STORAGE FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.
UM, BUT IT'S, WE'RE, THEY'RE PROPOSING TO AMEND THAT CUP, UM, TO TAKE IT OUT OF THAT TRAILER PARK AND THEN, UM, BUILD NEW CONDOMINIUMS THERE, THEN MAGNOLIA HEIGHTS PROJECT.
UM, HASN'T BEEN A LOT OF ACTION ON THAT LATELY, BUT THAT IS THE AMENDMENT TO THE 1333 SOUTH MAGNOLIA, THE APPROVED PLAN, RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT TO ADD NINE NEW ADDITIONAL LOTS SO THAT ONE'S PENDING RESUBMITTAL AS WELL AS AN AUTO REPAIR.
UM, AT 1360 13, 16 BROCKWAY YOU MORE.
WE HAVE THE NEURONTIN PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AT 1325 NEURONS.
THAT'S THREE AND A THREE UNITS, SINGLE FAMILY, RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT FOR SALE.
THAT MEANS IN PROCESS, THIS WAS THE TOWNHOMES AT 300 ALCOHOL BOULEVARD.
THAT'S 116 NEW CONDOMINIUM TOWNHOMES.
THE CARWASH THAT YOU SAW AT EIGHT 16 NORTH SECOND, UM, AS BACK IN TO EXPAND THAT CARWASH ONTO AN ADJACENT PROPERTY.
SO YOU'LL BE SEEING THAT ONE AGAIN SOON.
UM, AND THEN THERE IS A PROJECT, UM, FOR SOME ATHLETIC FIELD IMPROVEMENTS AT SHADOW MOUNTAIN COMMUNITY CHURCH, WHICH YOU WILL SEE, UM, AT THE NEXT PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING.
AND THEN LASTLY, THEY HAVE A PROPOSAL FOR EIGHT NEW TOWNHOMES AT THREE 50 SOUTH MAGNOLIA THAT'S UNDER REVIEW, BUT DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT ANY OF THESE PROJECTS? AND OF COURSE I WILL SEND THIS OUT TO EVERYONE TOMORROW AS WELL.
ONCE ON WASHINGTON, UM, LOOK LIKE THEY'RE TOWNHOUSES.
UH, THE VERY FIRST ONE THAT YOU MENTIONED NOTICE THERE'S A LARGE SIGN THAT SAYS FOR RENT, BUT DON'T SEE ANY SIGNS FOR, UH, FOR SALE.
THEY ONLY FOR RENT IS NOT FOR SALE UNITS.
SO THIS ONE RIGHT HERE, LEGACY.
THAT ONE IS MAPPED AS CONDOMINIUMS, BUT I DO UNDERSTAND THAT THE PROPERTY OWNER TENDS TO HOLD THOSE AND RENT THEM OUT.
THAT'S WHAT IT SEEMS LIKE TO ME AS A RENTAL UNIT.
I WANTED TO CLARIFY THAT ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS ON, OH, I'M SORRY.
THE 19 HOMES OVER AT SHADOW MOUNTAIN THAT WE APPROVED A WHILE BACK.
HAVE YOU HEARD ANY MORE ABOUT THAT? UM, NOT RECENTLY.
I HAVEN'T HEARD MUCH ABOUT IT EITHER.
AS FAR AS I KNOW THE DEVELOPERS STILL LOOKING INTO, UM, SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SLOPE, EVEN THOUGH ALL THE PLANS HAD THE SLOPE FIGURED OUT AND ALL THAT, UH, THE DEVELOPER WE'RE, WE'RE WAITING TO FIND OUT WHAT THE DEVELOPER IS GOING TO DO.
