[III. NOTICE REGARDING ADJOURNMENT]

[IV. ADOPTION OF THE AGENDA]

[V. ADOPTION OF MINUTES]

[VIII.1. Unified Development Ordinance Amendments (Public Hearing): Amendments to the Town of Bluffton’s Municipal Code of Ordinances, Chapter 23, Unified Development Ordinance, Article 3 – Application Process, Sec. 3.13, Development Surety and Stormwater Surety and Sec. 3.14, Certificate of Construction Compliance; and, Article 5 – Design Standards, Sec. 5.10 Stormwater. (Staff - Charlotte Moore)]

CHARLOTTE IS THE AMENDMENTS TONIGHT EXCUSE ME I'M HAVING A LITTLE TROUBLE HEARING SO MY HEARING SO SORRY. AND ANYWAY THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS TONIGHT RELATE STORMWATER AND THEY COME FROM THE WATERSHED MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT. SO THERE ARE AMENDMENTS THAT ARE PROPOSED TO SECTION 313 DEVELOPMENT AND SURETY AND STORMWATER SECURITY SECTION 314 CERTIFICATE OF CONSTRUCTION COMPLIANCE AND SECTION FIVE TOWN STORMWATER AND I JUST TO GIVE YOU A BIT OF A HIGH LEVEL REVIEW ON THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS SO THE FIRST ONE IS TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN A DEVELOPMENT MATURITY AND STORMWATER SECURITY WATERSHED MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT WANTED MORE SPECIFICITY WITH REGARD TO THE STORMWATER SECURITY. SO WE HAVE SOME AMENDMENTS TO THAT SECTION AND I CAN BRING UP THE TEXT AMENDMENT AS WELL IF YOU'D LIKE TO GO THROUGH THE AND EVERYTHING'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT HERE SORRY THE CERTIFICATE OF CONSTRUCTION COMPLIANCE AS YOU KNOW WE INCLUDED THE TEMPORARY CERTIFICATE OF CONSTRUCTION LAST YEAR AMONG VARIOUS AMENDMENTS SO SINCE WE'VE IMPLEMENTED IT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME ISSUES RELATING TO THE TEMPORARY CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE AS IT RELATES RIGHT NOW IT'S IN IT'S WRITTEN TO APPLY TO ALL TYPES OF DEVELOPMENT INCLUDING SINGLE AND COMMERCIAL WHICH INCLUDES MULTIFAMILY AND THE 75% COMPLETION REQUIREMENT HOWEVER IS DIFFICULT FOR COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT RELATES SOMEHOW TO TIMING AND FINANCING. SO WE WANT TO MAKE AN AMENDMENT TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN SINGLE FAMILY AND COMMERCIAL AND MULTIFAMILY SO TEMPORARY AS PROPOSED WOULD APPLY ONLY TO TWO SINGLE FAMILY. IT WOULD ALLOW THE DEVELOPER TO MOVE FORWARD A BUILDING PERMIT IF THAT TEMPORARY CERTIFICATE WAS ISSUED THAT WOULD NOT BE THE CASE FOR A COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. THEY COULD MOVE WITHOUT THE TEMPORARY CERTIFICATE THEY COULD OBTAIN A BUILDING PERMIT AND THEN AND THEN GET A FINAL CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE. AND KEVIN , I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ANYTHING YOU WANT TO ADD TO THAT AT ISSUE THOSE BASED WAS THAT WHEN A COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT DEVELOPMENT WAS COMING IN AND BEFORE THEY COULD EVEN GET THEIR BUILDING PERMIT WERE SAYING THAT YOU HAD TO HAVE 75% BOND IN PLACE FOR FOR A LOT OF YOUR LANDSCAPING IMPROVEMENTS. IT WAS A A ASTRONOMICAL AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO PUT UP FOR BONDS OR LETTER OR CREDITS REALIZING THAT ALL OF THESE IMPROVEMENTS ARE REQUIRED AT THE VERY END SO BEFORE THEY CAN GET THEIR CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY ON THESE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENTS, ALL OF THAT IS GOING TO BE PUT IN PLACE.

SO FROM A CHECKS AND BALANCES STANDPOINT WE HAVE THAT FINAL HOLD BEFORE WE ISSUE THE SEO OF GETTING COMPLETED FOR THEIR SITES. SO WHEN WE THOSE CHANGES WE IT WAS AN UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCE WHERE. WE REALIZED THAT WHEN WE LUMPED

[00:05:03]

SO WE'RE RELEASING THAT BACK OUT AND THEN FOCUSING ON THAT THE COMMERCIAL AND MULTIFAMILY CAN STILL MOVE FORWARD AND THEN THE RESIDENTIAL WILL STILL HAVE TO DO THEIR BONDS FOR THEIR FACES. SO I YES, THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT.

AND THEN FINALLY LAST THE LAST AMENDMENTS THAT ARE PROPOSED ARE TO THE STORMWATER SECTION.

THIS PARTICULAR SECTION RELATES REQUIREMENTS FOR BOTH NEW DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT AND AS IT'S WRITTEN RIGHT NOW THERE WAS SOME OVERLAP THAT NEEDED TO BE ADJUSTED.

SO WE'RE BREAKING OUT THE REQUIREMENTS FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT AND AGAIN I CAN GO OVER THOSE TEXT AMENDMENTS AND I'VE DONE THAT VERY QUICKLY.

ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS WOULD YOU LIKE FOR ME TO BRING UP THE TEXT AMENDMENTS ALLOCATION YOU SAID ALL RIGHTY. REGARDING TEXT AMENDMENT CRITERIA AS, THEY DO COMPLY WITH THE REVIEW CRITERIA REQUIRED BY THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE THE PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION COULD BE TO APPROVE THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION OR TO MAKE AN AMENDMENT TO THE RECOMMENDATION OR TO DENY IF YOU CHOOSE TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE AMENDMENTS TONIGHT THEY WILL GO TO THE TOWN COUNCIL FIRST READING ON MARCH 12 AND THEN FOR A SECOND READING AND PUBLIC HEARING ON APRIL 9TH. HERE IS THE PROPOSED MOTION YOU CHOOSE TO APPROVE THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION QUESTIONS COMMENTS.

GOOD. OKAY WELL THEN I HAVE A MOTION I LIKE A MOTION MOVED TO RECOMMEND THE APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE TOWN OF BOSTON CODE ORDINANCE CHAPTER 23 UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE AS SUBMITTED BY TOWN STAFF SECOND A FURTHER DISCUSSION ON PAPER I THINK THAT WOULD BE FANTASTIC. ALL RIGHT.

[VIII.2. Cornerstone Church Campus – Rezoning Request (PLANNING WORKSHOP – NO ACTION): A request by Nathan Sturre of Sturre Engineering on behalf of the property owners Cornerstone Church of Bluffton and Lalie Mole for approval of an Amendment to the Town of Bluffton Official Zoning Map to rezone two (2) parcels from Planned Unit Development (PUD) to Agriculture (AG) and Rural Mixed-Use (RMU). The subject parcels consist of approximately 43.3 acres and are identified by Beaufort County Tax Map Numbers R610 036 000 0014 0000 and R610036 000 014B 0000 located at 11 Grassey Lane and 21 Lake Lane, respectively. (ZONE-02-24-018921) (Staff – Dan Frazier)]

THIS IS A WORKSHOP SO THERE'S NO ACTION AND IN PRESENTING THE AND PRESENTING THIS ONE THANK YOU. THIS IS CORNERSTONE CHURCH CAMPUS, A MAP AMENDMENT WORKSHOP AND. SO THIS IS NOT THIS IS A NON ACTION ITEM SO YOU WON'T BE MAKING ACTION TONIGHT. IT'S JUST A WORKSHOP. WHAT I'M GOING TO DO IS READ REAL QUICKLY HOW IT READS IN THE YOUDO IT'S IN SECTION 322 COMMON APPLICATION REVIEW PROCEDURES ITEM F IS PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP AND DESCRIBED AS PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOPS ARE INTENDED TO BE FIRST OFFICIAL PRESENTATION OF A PROPOSED PROJECT TO PROVIDE THE PUBLIC WITH AND A FORUM TO INITIALLY REVIEW THE APPLICATION AND IDENTIFY APPLICABLE APPLICATION REVIEW CRITERIA. MEETINGS ARE ENCOURAGED AS OPPORTUNITIES FOR INFORMAL NON-BINDING COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE APPLICANT AND NEIGHBORING PROPERTY OWNERS AND PLANNING COMMISSION MEMBERS WHO MAY BE AFFECTED BY.

THE APPLICATION IN THEIR APPLICATION HERE TONIGHT THE REQUEST IS THE APPLICANT IS NATHAN STORY OF STUDY ENGINEERING ON BEHALF OF THE PROPERTY OWNERS OF CORNERSTONE CHURCH OF BLUFFTON AND LAWLEY AND FORMAL I'M NOT SURE IS REQUESTING THE APPROVAL OF THE OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE TOWN OF BLUFFTON ZONING MAP TO PARCELS TOTAL 43.31 ACRES THE PARCELS ARE CONTIGUOUS AND LOCATED SOUTH OF MAE RIVER ROAD APPROXIMATELY 600 FEET EAST OF STARDUST LANE AND. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING AN AMENDMENT TO THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP FOR THE TOWN OF BLUFFTON REZONE THE TWO PARCELS FROM PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT TO A MIX OF AGRICULTURAL AG AND RURAL MIXED USE OR USE ZONING DESIGNATIONS. THIS IS THE LOCATION OF OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IT IS JUST EAST OF NEW RIVERSIDE VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT AT SOUTH OF SC 46 MAE RIVER ROAD.

I'LL MOVE ON TO THE AERIAL OF THE SAME LOCATION PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND THE PROPERTIES FOR APPROVED BY BEAUFORT COUNTY AND DEVELOPED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE BEAUFORT ZONING AND DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS ORDINANCE. THE PROPERTIES CONTAIN

[00:10:02]

THEY HAD ASKED THEY HELD A COUPLE OF PUBLIC MEETINGS AND THEY DID SO WHEN THEY CAME BACK IN APRIL THE NEXT YEAR. IT WAS ALREADY RENAMED AS MIND ACADEMY PUTI AND AND THAT WAS APPROVED AS PRESENTED THIS IS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS THE EXISTING ZONING AS YOU CAN SEE IT'S PRETTY SO I'M GOING TO GO OVER WHAT THE EXISTING ZONING AND WHAT'S ALLOWED IN IT NOW AND THEN I'LL FOLLOW WITH WHAT THE PROPOSED ZONING IS AND AND THEN OPEN IT UP FOR THE WORKSHOP DISCUSSION AND SEE IF THIS. SO THIS THIS IS A THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT MAP THAT WAS INCLUDED IN IN THE IN THE. AND WHAT IT DESCRIBED DOWN HERE IS THE WE GOT MAY RIVER ROAD ON YOUR RIGHT AND THIS IS A ROAD THAT COMES INTO THE PROPERTY SO NORTH IS HEADED TO YOUR RIGHT ON THE THE LITTLE GRAPHIC UP ABOVE IDENTIFIES PHASE ONE AND THEN PHASE TWO IS IDENTIFIED AS UNDEVELOPED LAND. AND THEN THERE'S AN EXISTING RESIDENTIAL PARCEL BOTH PHASE ONE AND THIS PARCEL WERE DESIGNATED AS THE PHASE AS DEVELOPED LAND WITHIN THE PARK. SO SO THAT INCLUDED THE BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES YOU HAVE HERE THE POND OUTSIDE OF IT AND RESIDENTIAL THAT WAS HERE ON THIS GRAPHIC AND I KNOW IT'S HARD TO READ ALL THIS BUT THIS IS THE THIS IS THE UNDEVELOPED LAND FUTURE AS WELL AS THIS PIECE AS WELL AS ADJACENT TO THE BUILDINGS AS WELL AS BACK HERE.

AND I CAN GO BACK TO THIS GRAPHIC TO WHENEVER I NEED TO. SO THIS IS THE SITE DATA TABLE THAT WAS ALSO WITH IT AND I'M NOT EXPECTING YOU TO BE ABLE TO READ THIS.

I'M JUST GOING TO CLARIFY THE VERY TOP IS CALLING OUT THAT RESIDENTIAL PARCEL AND AN EXISTING RESIDENTIAL AND IS DESIGNATED AS NO FURTHER DEVELOPMENT.

THAT WAS HOW IT WAS APPROVED. THERE'S NO ADDITIONAL COMMERCIAL OUT THERE'S NO ADDITIONAL RESIDENTIAL ALLOWED ON THAT PARCEL AND THE PARCEL I'M REFERRING TO IS THIS ONE THERE'S THERE'S A HOME ON IT. THIS IS THE MALL'S PROPERTY OR MISS MOLLY'S MALL EVERY GO THIS MALL WHAT IS DESIGNATED AS PHASE ONE IS EXISTING DEVELOPMENT AND.

IT WAS APPROVED WITH NO FURTHER DEVELOPMENT AND THAT'S KEY BECAUSE THAT THAT'S THE REASON WHY WE MIGHT BE WHY WE'RE HERE TONIGHT WOULD GO IN THE CORRECT DIRECTION HERE AND THAT WOULD INCLUDE THE BUILDING AND THE POND DOWN HERE AS PHASE ONE DEVELOPMENT.

WHAT THIS WAS CONSIDERED PHASE ONE COMPLETE NO ADDITIONAL CAN HAPPEN WITHIN PHASE ONE.

THERE'S FUTURE PHASES WHERE ADDITIONAL CAN HAPPEN AND THAT'S WHAT'S SHOWING DOWN HERE. PHASE UNDEVELOPED LAND WHAT'S ALLOWED IS 6000 SQUARE FEET PER ACRE OF COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT OR ONE DWELLING UNIT PER ACRE OF RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.

AND SO THAT WOULD BE THE PARCELS THAT I'VE ALREADY CALLED OUT FRONT AND HERE ADJACENT TO THE BUILDINGS IN THE REAR. SO WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED IS THE FRONTS SEVEN ACRES GOING FROM PWD TO RURAL MIXED USE THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL PARCEL GOING GOING FROM PWD TO AGRICULTURAL AGRICULTURAL AGE ZONE DISTRICT AND THE REAR ALSO GOING TO AGRICULTURAL ZONE DISTRICT. HERE'S A MAP WITH A SLIDE WITH A LOT GOING ON BUT BUT BASICALLY ON YOUR LEFT WELL INITIALLY WHEN THIS WAS APPROVED IT WAS APPROVED IN THE COUNTY IT MIRRORED WHEN IT WAS APPROVED IN THE IN TOWN THE LAND USES THAT WERE ALLOWED MIRRORED THE PRICHARD BILL COMMUNITY PRESERVATION DISTRICT AND SUBSEQUENTLY AFTER THAT COUNTY CHANGED THEIR THEIR C P DISTRICTS WHEN BROUGHT IN THEIR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE AND WHEN THEY DID THEY HAD IDENTIFIED EACH OF THESE THESE PRESERVATION DISTRICTS AND SAID WHAT ARE THEY THE EQUIVALENT OF IN THE TOWN WHAT THEY IDENTIFIED WAS T TO RAW T TO RURAL CENTER AND T THREE EDGE WAS THE CURRENT ZONING IN THE

[00:15:01]

SO WHAT IS REQUESTED IS IS AG ZONING AND RURAL MIXED USE ZONING SO THE INTENT HERE IS TO SHOW A SLIDE THAT SHOWS THAT THAT THROUGH THIS REZONING ACTUALLY BECOMING A LESS THERE'S LESS INTENT USE IS BEING ALLOWED THAN THERE IS IN THE PD WE'RE UP AT THE TOP SCALE AT THE LOWER INTENSITY USES AS THE REZONING REQUEST AND AND AND A BEAUFORT COUNTY CURRENTLY THE PUD THE EQUIVALENT ZONING DISTRICT SO ALLOW MORE INTENSE USES THIS IS WHAT BUILDING STANDARDS THAT WE CAN REVISIT BUT THE LITTLE STARS THAT YOU SEE OVER HERE AG AND RMU SHOW THE ONLY TYPE OF OF LOT OF LOT TYPES THAT ARE ALLOWED IN THESE IN THIS DISTRICT IT'S VERY LIMITED FOR FOR AG IT'S EXTREMELY LIMITED FOR ARM YOU A LOT TYPES ARE SMALLER THESE LOT TYPES ARE SHOWN IN THIS CHART HERE THE STATE GOT A LARGE LOT MEDIUM HOUSE LOT SMALL MIXED USE LOT SMALL COMMERCIAL LOT AND CIVIC LOT THIS POINTS A LITTLE BIT TOWARDS WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT CHARLIE THE WHAT CAN WITH YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT COMMERCIAL UP FRONT AND THEN THERE'S A PARKING THAT GOES ALONG WITH IT THE CIVIL USE THAT'S CALLED OUT THE CIVIC THAT'S A GOVERNMENT OWNED OR OPERATED BUILDING STRUCTURE OR LAND USE FOR PUBLIC PURPOSE SO SO THESE ARE THE LIMITED TYPES LOT TYPES THAT CAN HAPPEN OUT OF THIS WHOLE LIST WITH THE REZONINGS THAT WE'RE DISCUSSING IS COMPARISON TABLE DEFINITELY DON'T EXPECT YOU TO BE ABLE TO READ THIS IT WAS PROVIDED IN THE PACKET THE FIRST COLUMN WELL I GUESS THE SECOND COLUMN FIRST COLUMN IS A LIST OF LAND USE.

THE SECOND COLUMN IS WHAT'S ALLOWED UNDER THE MAINSTREAM PD .

EVERYWHERE YOU SEE A LETTER IT'S EITHER PERMITTED OR CONDITIONALLY PERMITTED.

THE SECOND IS THE TOWN OF BLUFFTON AG ZONING. YOU CAN THAT IT'S MUCH MORE SPARSE WITH THE WITH THE USES THERE'S A BATCH OF USES UNDER COMMERCIAL SERVICES HERE THERE'S ONLY HERE WHEN YOU GET OVER TO THE RURAL MIXED USE LITTLE MORE THAN THE AG BUT DEFINITELY LESS THAN THE MAINSTREAM PD. I CAN REVISIT THIS SLIDE IF YOU NEED ME TO THE NEXT STEPS THERE WAS A PRE-APPLICATION APPLICATION MEETING IN JULY OF 2023. TONIGHT WE'RE HAVING THE COMMISSION WORKSHOP AFTER THIS WILL BE WILL COME BACK NEXT MONTH AND IT'LL BE THE PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING AND RECOMMENDATION YOU GUYS ARE RECOMMENDING BOARD WHEN IT COMES THIS AND THIS WILL GO TO THE TOWN COUNCIL TENTATIVE DATES IT WILL GO TO THE TOWN COUNCIL FOR THE ORDINANCE FIRST READING IN APRIL ON APRIL NINE, 2024 AND THEN IT WILL GO BACK TO THE TOWN COUNCIL FOR A PUBLIC HEARING AND ORDINANCE SECOND READING AND FINAL READING AND THAT WOULD BE IN MAY OF 2024 AND I WILL JUST OPEN THIS UP FOR ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE OF THE APPLICANT IT'S AN OPEN WORKSHOP. I DON'T KNOW IF KEVIN WANTED TO ADD ANYTHING TO THIS.

THAT'S GREAT. OKAY. ANYBODY ELSE? ANY QUESTIONS FOR YOU? OPEN IT UP AND OPEN IT TO THE APPLICANT IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK TO ANYTHING. IF YOU DO SO ONCE AGAIN PROJECT IS THE CORNERSTONE CHURCH OF ALL PROPERTY TO TURN INTO THEIR MAIN CHURCH CAMPUS AS OPERATION HAS GROWN THEY POINT OUT OF PARKING IN DOWNTOWN BLOCK LOOKING FOR A BIGGER SITE TO CONTINUE THEIR EXPANSION THIS THIS SITE WAS PURCHASED A YEAR OR TWO AGO JANUARY 2023 AND ARE THE PD THEY ARE ALLOWED TO AT THE CHURCH YOU CAN SEE OF THE MORE INTENSE DENSITY OF COMMERCIAL USES THAT ARE ALLOWED AND WHAT WE'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH IS TRYING AMEND THE PD SO ANYTIME THEY WANT TO PUT A SHOVEL IN THE GROUND PER THE PD THEY HAVE TO COME IN FRONT OF YOU GUYS AND AMEND.

SO IN ORDER TO EASE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT AND ALSO HELP THE CHURCH GET UP AND OPERATIONAL OF RIGHT NOW WE HAVE WORKED WITH THE DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT TO COME UP WITH REZONING TO AGRICULTURAL AND THEN RURAL MIXED USE ON THE FRONT EAST WHICH MIRRORS THE OLD METRO ELECTRIC DOMINION ENERGY EXCUSE ME PROPERTY ACROSS THE STREET AND THAT WILL ALLOW FOR A SMALL

[00:20:02]

OKAY, NOW I WAS JUST WONDERING SURE. SHE WAS INDEPENDENT OF ALL OF THIS. WOULD HER AS WELL? YES.

AND I TALKED I TALKED WITH THIS SMALL SHE SHE HAD QUESTIONS ABOUT IT AND I WAS ABLE TO EXPLAIN THAT AND THEN JUST THAT AGRICULTURAL I MEAN SHE HAS NO INTENTIONS TO SUBDIVIDE THE PROPERTY BUT YOU KNOW, IT WOULD GIVE HER THAT ABILITY TO GET THAT IN THE FUTURE SOMETHING FOR A UNIT IF SHE SO CHOSE. OKAY. WELL ALONG THOSE LINES WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER RESIDENTS THAT HAVE TO ACCESS PAST MOST PROPERTY TO GET TO THEIR HOUSES OR AM I READING THE MAP WRONG? THERE IS A EXISTING EASEMENT THROUGH THE PROPERTY MEADOWS THAT WILL REMAIN UNCHANGED. THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF QUESTION AS TO WHETHER THAT'S TIED TO THE PUB OR PUBLIC RIGHT WAY FOR ALL THE DOCUMENTS I'VE SEEN AND WE'VE WORKED WITH THE SURVEYOR AND PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT OF A BLACK HOLE IN TERMS OF DATA BUT WE HAVE DATA SHOWING THAT THAT'S PART OF THE PUD COUNTY AND TOWN OF BLUFFTON INFORMATION CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC RIGHT AWAY SO IT WILL REMAIN AS OF RIGHT NOW PART OF THE SEED OR PART OF THE AGRICULTURAL ZONING AS AN OFFICIAL EASEMENT.

THE ROAD WELL THE ROAD AND IT WILL ALSO SERVE AS A UTILITY CORRIDOR WHICH IS A DIRT OR PAVED AS OF RIGHT NOW IT'S DIRT THE CHURCH IS PROPOSING A GRAVEL PAVEMENT SURFACE COVER AS WE VALUE ENGINEER THIS PROJECT TO THOSE CHURCH BE I'LL TALK TO THE NEIGHBORS AND WHAT DOES EVERYONE'S FEEL ABOUT THIS? DOES IT MATTER WITH THE REZONING YOU DON'T HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH AS OF RIGHT NOW WE HAVE NOT I HAVEN'T REACHED OUT I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH WE HAVE TO TALK TO THE. WE'VE INTRODUCED OURSELVES TO THE NEIGHBORS. WE HAVEN'T TALKED TO THEM ABOUT PROPOSAL.

I JUST DIDN'T HAVE ANYONE YELL FROM ANYWHERE OBVIOUSLY YOU 250 FOOT RADIUS IN THE NEXT MEETING AND ALSO THERE'S ALSO A PUBLIC NOTICE FOR WHEN A GHOST TOWN COUNCIL AND YOU KNOW THAT'S ALWAYS A BIG FACTOR. YEAH AND WE KNOW KNOW HAS HAD STAFF TAKE A TAKE A SIGN AND PUT IT OUT THERE JUST SO THAT WAY AS PEOPLE ARE DRIVING BY THEY WILL SEE THE THE BIG SEA OUT THERE AND I DON'T THINK WE CAN DO WHAT YOU CAN. I JUST WANT TO MAYBE I JUST KNOW THAT'S ALWAYS A BIG QUESTION IS FORCE I THINK IN TERMS OF THE NEIGHBORS TO THE WEST SIDE IT PROVIDES A REALLY GOOD BUFFER FROM THAT HEIGHT DENSITY IN RIVERSIDE DEVELOPMENT THAT'S GOING ON OVER THERE AND FEELING MORE AND MORE RURAL YOU'LL LET'S LET'S BACK UP TO 10,000 FOOT VIEW FOR A SECOND. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DO AS A TOWN IS WE DON'T WANT TO DO SPOT ZONING OR INDIVIDUAL SIGNING CHANGE.

CAN WE SPEAK WHY THIS IS EVEN BE FOR US AND WHY WE'RE CONSIDERING VERSUS SAY ME WANTING TO CHANGE MY ZONING ON PROPERTY WHAT IS THE BENEFIT TO THE TOWN WE OF WHEN FIRST CAME IN LET ME SEE IT BACK WHEN THEY FIRST CAME IN AND THEY WANTED TO DO SOME IMPROVEMENTS TO THE TO THE EXISTING BUILDINGS THEY IT THEY TOOK WAS TO AMEND THE PD THE PD SO SPECIFICALLY

[00:25:02]

RIGHT. YOU KNOW IF YOU THINK OF THE THE GROWTH FRAMEWORK, YOU KNOW, THIS PIECE IS KIND OF ON THE PERIPHERY FOR FOR COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT.

SO IT IS IT IS APPROPRIATE TO HAVE SOME COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT ALSO YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE A SEVEN ACRE PIECE RIGHT THERE FOR I ALWAYS EQUATE THE RURAL MIXED USE TO LIKE CAHILL'S PROPERTY WHERE THE RESTAURANT IS. IT'S MEANT TO BE A SMALLER SMALLER DESIGN. ANY DEVELOPMENT THAT THEY ANY DEVELOPMENT THAT WOULD HAPPEN THE LOTS SIZES IN THAT TABLE WOULD PULL THAT TABLE BACK UP IT'S REALLY SO A SMALLER LOT FORCES YOU TO HAVE A SMALLER BUILDING SO ANY TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT THAT WOULD HAPPEN THERE WOULD HAVE TO MEET GUIDELINES BY PUTTING IT ALL IN THE YOUDO AND IT'S CLEAR THAT MOVING FORWARD THE RURAL MIXED USE WOULD NOT ALLOW THINGS LIKE THAT.

I HOPE I DON'T OFFEND ANYBODY HERE BUT A CHICK-FIL-A POSSIBLY A STARBUCKS.

YES, THERE WAS A LOT OF THERE'S ACTUALLY LOT OF USES IN THAT USE TABLE RIGHT THERE THAT ARE THAT ARE CURRENTLY ALLOWED IN THAT FUTURE DEVELOPMENT SPACES THAT ARE NO LONGER ALLOWED.

SO AGAIN, I MEAN IT IS A IT IS A DOWN ZONING IN THE SENSE OF THEY HAVE A LESSER AMOUNT OF USES YEAH BOY YOU JUST KNOW THAT MY BIGGEST NIGHTMARE IS WHEREVER A CHICK FILLET DECIDES TO PUT THEIR NEXT BUILDING YEAH WELL TRAFFIC ISSUES SO BUT NO I'M JUST NOT THAT I HATE THEIR FOOD BUT I'M EITHER FOOD NO I SAID NOT THAT I HATE THEIR FOOD I LIKE THEIR FOOD BUT TALK FOR A SECOND IF YOU WOULD IT LOOKS LIKE IT MAYBE IT DOESN'T BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THE ROADS THE BACK END OF THE PROPERTY CONNECT TO THE NEXT DOOR NEIGHBORHOOD TO MIDWAY FARMS OR DO THEY NOT MY NOT SEEING THAT RIGHT AND THERE'S ONE PROBLEM THERE ONE PROPERTY BACK THERE THIS IS KIND OF A PATCHWORK ROADS BACK THERE BUT THERE IS MULTIPLE ACCESS POINTS COULD ALSO GO UP STILL WELL IF THEY WANTED TO THE THE REASON I'M ASKING AND THIS IS USUALLY LATER IN THIS PROCESS ANYWAYS IS OUT OF RESPECT FOR THE NEIGHBORS THAT LIVE IN MIDWAY FARMS WE DON'T NECESSARILY WANT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO CHURCH SNAKING THROUGH MIDWAY TO BEAT THE TRAFFIC. SO THAT'S JUST SOMETHING TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT ACTUALLY CAN REALLY TAKE LONGER WE CAN ACCESS OH YOU GAIN ACCESS THERE'S AN ACCESS FROM MIDWAY SO SOMEONE MIGHT HAVE MADE THEIR OWN. YES I KNOW A COUPLE OF PEOPLE BACK THERE. YEAH YEAH REALLY HAVE ARE THERE AND THIS IS JUST A CURIOSITY YOU THING ARE THERE PLANS TO ENCLOSE THAT PAVILION AT SOME POINT AND MAKE THAT THE MAIN

[00:30:01]

ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO TO. GOOD LUCK. THE WATER.

OKAY, SO WITH THAT LET'S MAKE A MOTION AND I HAVEN'T EVEN ASKED AND.

I'LL SET A MOTION IN A SECOND ANY ON ANY FURTHER OF RIVER YOU GUYS GOT TO IN THEY SAID WE INTEND
