I HOPE YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING BOOKED ON THURSDAY NIGHTS FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS. ALL RIGHT. MOVING RIGHT ALONG TO ITEM NUMBER TWO ON OUR AGENDA IS A
PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE BALLOON SHINE VILLAGE TOWNHOMES. MISS O'DAY, I BELIEVE YOU HAVE THE STAFF REPORT. >> I DO. THANK YOU, CHAIR AND COMMISSIONERS.
SO YES, THIS IS A SERIES OF ENTITLEMENTS FOR A TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT OFF OF 86 AND 87TH STREET.
SO THE SUBJECT PROPERTY LOCATION IS 1525 1601 6365 EAST 86 364 AND SIX SIX EAST 87TH STREET.
THOSE PROPERTIES ARE LOCATED JUST WEST OF OLD CEDAR AVENUE AND JUST EAST OF BLOOMINGTON AVENUE ON 86TH STREET. SURROUNDING LAND USES INCLUDE
MOSTLY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL WITH A PLACE OF ASSEMBLY JUST TO THE WEST AS WELL AS AN APARTMENT BUILDING TO THE EAST AND THEN RIGHTS LAKE PARK TO THE NORTH
. SO THE THE REQUEST FOR THEIR PROPOSAL THIS EVENING IS FOR A REZONING FROM THE EXISTING R ONE TO R3A FINAL SITE AND BUILDING PLAN TO CONSTRUCT 33
TOWNHOMES AND ASSOCIATED IMPROVEMENTS AS WELL AS A TYPE THREE PLYMOUTH. PRELIMINARY EXCUSE ME AND FINAL PLAT TO RE PLAT SIX SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LOTS
INTO 33 INDIVIDUAL TOWNHOME LOTS AND ONE OUT LOT SO SO THE SUBJECT PROPERTIES ARE ALL GUIDED AS MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL IN THE COMPREHENSIVE COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN THE SUBJECT PROPERTIES HAVE BEEN GUIDED AS MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL IN MULTIPLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CYCLES GOING AS FAR BACK AS
1972 THAT WE COULD FIND ON THE SCREEN HERE I HAVE MULTIPLE ITERATIONS OF THE COMP PLAN 1993 2000 2008 2018 MOST RECENTLY ALL SHOWING THE
PROPERTIES AS MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL SO THE SIX SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ARE CURRENTLY ZONED R-1 SINGLE FAMILY. CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND USE
GUIDANCE OF MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL THE SITES MUST BE RISEN TO THE R THREE MIDDLE HOUSING RESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICT WHICH ALLOWS TOWNHOMES AS A PERMITTED USE
SO TO FACILITATE CONSTRUCTION OF THE DEVELOPMENT. MOST OF THE HOMES HAVE BEEN DEMOLISHED EXCEPT FOR ONE. SO STAFF REVIEWS THE PURPOSE
AND INTENT OF THE ZONING DISTRICT AND COMPARES IT TO THE EXISTING ZONING. SO THE R THREE ZONING DISTRICT ALLOWS UP TO 12 UNITS AN ACRE . THE PROPOSED DENSITY OF THIS
PROJECT IS 12 UNITS AN ACRE. IT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE CURRENT OR EXISTING LAND USE GUIDANCE OF MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. THE R THREE ZONING DISTRICT IS
INTENDED AND DESIGNED TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH NEARBY LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. IT HAS ACCESS TO TRANSIT. >> THERE'S A BUS STOP JUST
NORTH OF THE PROPERTY ON 86TH STREET SO THERE'S ADEQUATE ACCESS TO TRANSIT AS WELL AS IT'S ON A MAJOR COLLECTOR ROAD 86TH STREET AND THEN A
REGIONAL TRAIL ALONG OLD CEDAR AVENUE AND EXCUSE ME AND THEN IT'S WELL IT'S IN PROXIMITY TO NEARBY PARKS AS WELL.
SO WHEN EVALUATING ZONING REZONING APPLICATIONS THERE ARE NO SPECIFIC STATE STATUTE FINDINGS THAT WE FOLLOW OR GUIDE AGAINST. SO THE REQUEST IS EVALUATED ON CONSISTENCY WITH THE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND PUBLIC BENEFIT. AND SO THE GOALS AND STRATEGIES IN THE 2040 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN INCLUDE PROVIDING A RANGE OF HOUSING OPTIONS FOR TOWNHOMES
ESPECIALLY OUR GOOD OPTION FOR OLDER POPULATION AND SINGLE FAMILY OR SINGLE AND TWO PERSON HOUSEHOLDS. THE COMP PLAN ALSO IDENTIFIES NEW LOCATIONS AND
OPPORTUNITIES FOR HOUSING AND LASTLY IN THE HOUSING ELEMENT THIS PROJECT WOULD PROVIDE THREE AFFORDABLE UNITS AND THEN FOUR ACCESSIBLE UNITS.
SO GETTING INTO THE OPPORTUNITY HOUSING ORDINANCE THAT ORDINANCE REQUIRES AT LEAST 9% OF UNITS AFFORDABLE AT 60% AMI OR LOWER.
SO IN THIS CASE THEY'RE PROVIDING THREE UNITS AT 60% AMI THEY'RE NOT REQUESTING OR NO DEVELOPMENT INCENTIVES HAVE BEEN APPLIED IN THIS INSTANCE
THE PROJECT MEETS OUR CODE REQUIREMENTS. AND THEN JUST TO NOTE THAT A ONE AFFORDABLE UNIT WILL BE CONSTRUCTED IN EACH PHASE. SO HERE'S THE SITE PLAN.
THE SITE PLAN REDUCES THE EXISTING NUMBER OF CURB CUTS TO ONE ACCESS OFF OF 86TH STREET AND 87TH STREET. IT WOULD INCLUDE CONSTRUCTION
OF SEVEN TOWNHOME BUILDINGS WITH FOUR AND FIVE UNITS EACH WITH THEIR OWN GARAGE AND DRIVEWAY AS WELL AS A PRIVATE DRIVEWAY THAT WOULD CONNECT ALL OF THE HOMES AND THEN
INFILTRATION BASIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SITE TO HELP WITH STORMWATER IMPROVEMENTS AND THEN SIDEWALKS KIND OF CIRCULATING AROUND THE SITE AS WELL.
SO FOR PHASING THE PROJECT WOULD BE WOULD BE COMPLETED IN THREE PHASES. THE PHASE ONE OUTLINED IN RED WOULD BE THESE UNITS AND THEN
AS WELL AS THE PRIVATE DRIVEWAY AND THEN THE INFILTRATION BASIN PHASE TWO IN BLUE AND THEN PHASE THREE IN GREEN AND THE PROJECT WOULD
PROBABLY BE COMPLETED AROUND 2030. ALL GRADING AND INFRASTRUCTURE MUST BE COMPLETED AND PHASE ONE OF THE PROJECT GETTING INTO TRAFFIC REVIEW I'LL LOOK
TO TRAFFIC STAFF IF THEY WANT TO COME UP AND JUST SPEAK TO TRAFFIC AND THEN I'LL CONTINUE ON WITH MY PRESENTATION. THANK YOU AND WELCOME MR. ROBERTS.
THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN. COMMISSIONERS KIRK ROBERTS TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORTATION ENGINEER FOR THE CITY. SO TRAFFIC LOOKING AT THIS AND JUST TO GIVE SOME I'M GOING TO PROVIDE SOME CONTEXT IN CASE
THE PUBLIC THAT'S VIEWING OR COMMISSIONERS AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH TRAFFIC AS MUCH AND WHAT THE FIRST THING THAT WE LOOK AT IN ANY DEVELOPMENT THAT COMES ALONG. LET ME BACK UP FIRST.
EVERY DEVELOPMENT THAT COMES THROUGH THE CITY IS EVALUATED FOR TRAFFIC IN TERMS OF THE IMPACTS IT CREATES AND THEY ALL GET STUDIED DEPENDING ON THE TYPES OF IMPACTS WE EXPECT
FROM THEM. SO I WANT TO START THERE. THIS A DEVELOPMENT LIKE THIS. IT HAS SOME THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO LOOK AT BUT IT'S NOT OVERLY COMPLEX SO WE DON'T COMMISSION AN INDEPENDENT STUDY BY A TRAFFIC CONSULTANT
TO DO THAT LIKE WE DO ON SOME LARGER DEVELOPMENTS OR DEVELOPMENTS WHERE THE IMPACTS ARE SUBSTANTIAL. BUT WE DO STUDY AND LOOK AT EACH ONE AND GO ACCORDINGLY. THE FIRST THING THAT WE LOOK
AT IS HOW MANY TRIPS DOES THIS GENERATE AND TRIPS ARE A WAY THAT WE MEASURE HOW MANY CARS ARE COMING AND GOING FROM A DEVELOPMENT. ONE THING THAT SURPRISES EVERYONE IS A TYPICAL SINGLE
FAMILY HOME IN THE U.S. GENERATES RIGHT ABOUT TEN TRIPS A DAY AND WE MEASURE A TRIP AS ONE CAR PASSING BY WOULD BE COUNTED AS A TRIP. A LAYMAN MIGHT THINK OF A TRIP
LIKE WELL, I WENT TO THE GROCERY STORE. I WENT THERE AND BACK. THAT'S ONE TRIP. WE WOULD COUNT THAT AS TWO ACTUAL TRIPS ONE WHERE YOU WENT WE'RE GOING AND THE OTHER WHEN YOU CAME BACK IT JUST GIVES US A LITTLE MORE
PRECISION. SO THESE NUMBERS MIGHT SEEM A LITTLE BIT HIGH BUT WE'VE COMPILED THE TRIP DATA FOR JUST ABOUT EVERY USE YOU CAN IMAGINE. OVER TIME TRAFFIC ENGINEERS
ARE DREADFULLY BORING AND THAT'S WHAT WE THINK ABOUT. AND SO THERE'S LARGE BINDERS ABOUT HOW MUCH TRAFFIC ANY TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT WILL GENERATE FOR TOWNHOMES IT'S
PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD. THE TOWNHOMES PROPOSED HERE WILL GENERATE ABOUT 238 TRIPS A DAY. WHEN YOU TAKE AWAY THE TRIPS THAT THE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ARE ALREADY GENERATING, THAT
GIVES YOU A NET INCREASE OF ABOUT 181 TRIPS A DAY COMING AND GOING TO THIS DEVELOPMENT OR THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE THAT ARE THERE NOW. AND SO THAT'S THE FIRST THING. THAT'S NOT A HUGE NUMBER
OF TRIPS. AGAIN, TO PUT THIS IN CONTEXT, RESTAURANT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT CAN GENERATE, YOU KNOW, A THOUSAND OR MORE TRIPS A DAY ONTO THE NETWORK. SOMETHING LIKE A BIG BOX STORE
CAN GENERATE 8000 10,000 TRIPS A DAY. THEY GO ON TO THAT NETWORK. SO THIS IS A FAIRLY LOW TRIP GENERATION USE. AND THEN THE NEXT THING YOU
LOOK AT IS WHERE THOSE TRIPS ARE GOING TO GO AND THIS IS PRETTY SIMPLE FOR MOST OF BLOOMINGTON PEOPLE WANT TO GO NORTH. AND SO IF YOU LOOK AT THOSE DRIVEWAYS, ABOUT 80% OF THOSE TRIPS ARE GOING TO GO OUT TO
86TH STREET. 30% ARE GOING TO GO ON TO 87TH STREET JUST DEPENDING ON WHERE THEIR DESTINATIONS ARE. AFTER YOU'VE FIGURED OUT THE TRIPS THEN YOU WANT TO LOOK AT
HOW IS THAT WHAT ARE THEY GOING ON TO? THIS IS BASICALLY HOW MUCH TRAFFIC IS ON THAT EXISTING STREET NETWORK. AND SO FOR 86TH STREET THERE'S A THREE LANE COLLECTOR ROADWAY COLLECTOR ROADWAYS TAKE A
LITTLE BIT HIGHER VOLUMES THAN OUR LOCAL STREETS. RIGHT NOW WE'VE GOT ABOUT 4500 VEHICLES PER DAY ON 86TH STREET WHICH PUTS THIS AT SOMEWHAT OF A LOW VOLUME
COLLECTOR ROADWAY. YES, IT'S BUSY. IF YOU GO OUT THERE YOU'RE GOING TO SEE CARS. BUT THIS ISN'T THE KIND OF ROADWAY WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO EXPECT A WHOLE LOT OF DELAYS. TRAFFIC MOVES THROUGH THERE PRETTY WELL.
THREE LANE ROADWAYS IN TERMS OF THEIR ULTIMATE CAPACITY CARRY 15,000 TO 20,000 CARS A DAY OR MORE PRETTY WELL. SO WHEN YOU SEE A LOW NUMBER OF TRIPS LIKE THIS ON A
ROADWAY THAT HAS ADEQUATE CAPACITY, WE DON'T GET TOO WORRIED. I DON'T THINK WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE TOO MUCH TO DO ON THOSE DRIVEWAYS. YEAH, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SEE
A LOT OF DELAYS OR VEHICLES QUEUING UP AT THOSE DRIVEWAYS MORNING AND EVENING TO GET IN AND OUT OF THE DEVELOPMENT . SO THERE'S NO SPECIAL THINGS NEEDED THERE. 87TH STREET IS A LOCAL STREET RIGHT NOW. IT CARRIES ABOUT 400 CARS A
DAY. THAT PUTS IT IN RIGHT IN THAT WHERE WE WANT TO SEE A LOCAL STREET. LOCAL STREETS CARRY ANYWHERE FROM JUST 100 OR MORE CARS DAY UP TO MAYBE A THOUSAND CARS A
DAY PRETTY WELL AND WE DON'T REALLY THINK ABOUT LOCAL STREETS IN TERMS OF THEIR CAPACITY. WE LOOK AT IT MORE FROM QUALITY OF LIFE AND AT THESE VOLUMES AT 400 CARS A DAY,
THAT STREET'S NOT GOING TO BE AN ISSUE PEOPLE ON THAT STREET. YOU OBVIOUSLY KNOW TRAFFIC IS OUT THERE BUT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE SOMETHING THEY'RE GOING TO REALLY, REALLY BOTHERED BY OR FIXATED ON. NOT TO SAY THERE'S NOT SOME
OBNOXIOUS PERSON THAT ALWAYS DRIVES TOO FAST OR SOMETHING THAT JUST IRRITATES EVERYONE. BUT IN GENERAL TRAFFIC IS NOT GOING TO BE A DOMINANT THEME IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD. SO THE 30% OF THE TRIPS
IN THIS NEWEVELOPMENT ON TO 87TH STREET ARE NOT GOING TO PUSH THIS UP WHERE IT'S GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE NOTICE. IN FACT COMMON EXPERIENCE. ADDING SUCH A LOW NUMBER OF TRIPS ON AN ALREADY LOW
VOLUME ROAD ISN'T SOMETHING YOU'RE GOING TO EVEN BE ABLE TO NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE. IF YOU'RE LIVING NEARBY THERE AS A RESIDENT AND THEN THE LAST THING ARE THERE SAFETY ISSUES AND MOBILITY ISSUES
THAT WE NEED TO ADDRESS. LOOKING AT THE INTERSECTIONS NEARBY VARIOUS METHODS OF CONTROL FROM A SIGNAL ON OLD CEDAR IN 86TH STREET TO JUST STOP CONTROL ALONG MOST OF THAT CORRIDOR THERE WAS ONE
ACCIDENT AT THE INTERSECTION OF 87TH STREET AND BLOOMINGTON AVENUE IN 2026. IT WAS APRIL 2026. I I DON'T HAVE ALL THE DETAILS
OFFHAND BUT PRIOR TO THIS DEVELOPMENT WE ARE IF WE HAD LOOKED AT THAT AND ARE EVALUATING THAT WE'LL PUT STOP CONTROL ON THAT SIDE STREET APPROACH AND YOU COULD SEE A SMALL STOP SIGN IN MY EXHIBIT
HERE. I THINK ONE OF THE THESE T INTERSECTIONS BY STATE STATUTE OUR YIELD CONTROL AND MOST DRIVERS KNOW THIS WHEN YOU'RE COMING UP ON THE STEM OF A T
YOU KIND OF TEND TO GIVE THE RIGHT AWAY TO THE MAIN LINE. THEY WORK REALLY WELL IN GENERAL. THIS ONE HAD A CRASH. THERE'S A VERY WIDE DRIVEWAY FOR A CHURCH ADJACENT TO THAT. AND SO WE THINK THAT THE HIGHER LEVEL OF CONTROL
CONVERTING THIS TO STOP CONTROL SHOULD SATISFY ANY ISSUES OUTSTANDING. THERE WERE NO OTHER SAFETY OR CAPACITY ISSUES NOTED. SO AGAIN, YOU'VE GOT A DEVELOPMENT THAT GENERATES
MORE TRIPS THAN WHAT'S THERE NOW BUT IT'S NOT A HIGH TRIP GENERATOR. IT'S PUTTING TRAFFIC ON TWO ROADS THAT ARE WELL WITHIN THEIR THEIR TYPICAL VOLUME RANGES. SO WE EXPECT THE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE TO HANDLE
TRAFFIC FROM THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT WITHOUT ANY NEED FOR ADDITIONAL MITIGATION. THANK YOU.
MR. ROBERTS. WITH THAT WILL CONTINUE ON. SO HERE ARE THE BUILDING ELEVATIONS ONCE THE FRONT AND
REAR FACADES OF THE BUILDINGS. SO THESE BUILDINGS ARE THREE STORIES TALL, 41FT. THEY'RE SHOWING BALCONIES OFF THE BACK OF THE BUILDINGS AS
WELL AS PORTICOS ON THE FRONT. THE APPLICANT DID SUBMIT A SHADOW STUDY AND THEIR PLANS ARE SHOWING COMPLIANCE WITH
OUR CITY CODE IN REGARDS TO SHADOWS ONTO A NEIGHBORING BUILDINGS AS WELL AS THE CODE REQUIRES THE BUILDING FOR THE UNITS TO BE ARTICULATED OR OFFSET FROM EACH OTHER TO
CREATE A VISUAL IMPACT AND SO OVERALL THEIR BUILDING ELEVATIONS ARE COMPLIANT WITH CITY CODE AS FAR AS PARKING AND SIDEWALKS GO PARKING
REQUIRED IS TWO STALLS A UNIT AND SO WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING IS TO STALL GARAGE FOR EACH OF THE UNITS. CODE REQUIRES GAS PARKING SPACES AS WELL AND SO THEY'RE SHOWING NINE SPACES GAS
PARKING SPACES. SO OVERALL PARKING SUPPLY IS COMPLIANT FOR SIDEWALKS. THEY'RE SHOWING PRIVATE SIDEWALKS CONNECTING FROM EACH FRONT FRONT ENTRANCE OF THE
SPECIFIC UNITS TO THE PUBLIC SIDEWALKS. AND THEN A MINOR REVISION. WE DO REQUIRE THE EIGHT FOOT PUBLIC Y EIGHT FOOT WIDE PUBLIC SIDEWALK ON 86TH
STREET. SO JUST A MINOR REVISION THAT THE PLANS MUST BE MODIFIED TO IDENTIFY THAT. AND THEN AS FAR AS LANDSCAPING GOES,HE OVERALL QUANTITY
OF LANDSCAPING IS COMPLIANT 48 TREES 119 SHRUBS ARE REQUIRED FOR THE OVERALL QUANTITY SHOWS THAT AND THEN THEY'RE SHOWING A FENCE KIND OF IDENTIFIED
ALONG THE PERIMETER OF THE SITE AS WELL. >> AND THEN HERE IS THE FINAL PLAT WHICH JUST SHOWS THE INDIVIDUAL TOWNHOME UNITS AND
THE OUT LOT FOR THE PRIVATE DRIVE. AND THEN LASTLY LAST SLIDE HERE WE DID REACH OUT TO METRO TRANSIT AS THEY HAVE AN
EXISTING BUS STOP JUST OUTSIDE OF THIS PROPERTY HERE AND SO THEY'RE REQUESTING TO FACILITATE IMPROVEMENTS TO THAT BUS STOP. AND SO WE DO HAVE A
RECOMMENDED CONDITION OF APPROVAL REGARDING THAT. AND THEN STAFF HAS RECEIVED PUBLIC CORRESPONDENCE FROM THREE PARTIES EXPRESSING OPPOSITION OF THIS PROJECT AND
YOU ALL HAVE THAT AT YOUR SEATS. SO WITH THAT WE ARE RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF THIS PROJECT GOES ON TO CITY COUNCIL NEXT MONTH I BELIEVE
AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE. SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ? THANK YOU MR. DE ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF SO YOU'RE GOING TO
HAVE INPUT SIR. WE'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING JUST A MINUTE AND YOU'LL HAVE YOUR CHANCE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS. I GOT TO RUN THE WHOLE SPEECH FOR IT JUST IN CASE.
COMMISSIONER COLEMAN, YOU CAN GO FIRST. YES. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, CHAIR. SO WHEN I WAS LOOKING THROUGH THE THROUGH THE PLANS, THE I LOOKED AT THE SHADOW STUDY AND I SAW THAT THERE IS SHADOWS
BEING CAST ON THE HOUSE TO THE EAST IN THE AFTERNOON AND IN ON THE HOUSE TO THE WEST IN THE IN THE MORNING. I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD
EXPLAIN HOW THAT INTERACTS WITH THE SHADOW CODE IN BLOOMINGTON. SURE I DO HAVE. THANK YOU, CHAIR COMMISSIONER COLEMAN, I DO HAVE A SLIDE. OH, HERE WE GO.
SO THIS IS THE SHADOW STUDY THAT WAS SUBMITTED THE CODE REQUIRES A SHADOW STUDY IF STAFF FEELS LIKE THERE COULD BE AN ISSUE WITH SHADOWS
ONTO A NEIGHBORING BUILDING ISOLATED SUPPLY THIS WITH THEIR APPLICATION. THE CODE PROHIBITS BUILDINGS AT A CERTAIN HEIGHT WHEN THERE
IS CASTED SHADOWS AT 10 A.M. AND 2 P.M. ON DECEMBER 21ST AND THAT GOES FOR THE SAME THE SAME BUILDING HAS TO HAVE THOSE SHADOWS.
SO IN OUR REVIEW OF THESE PLANS THAT WAS NOT THE CASE AND SO THE PROJECT MEETS CODE REQUIREMENTS. YEP. SO ON THE BOTTOM THERE IS THE
WINTER SOLSTICE AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE SHADOW BARELY GRAZES THE BUILDINGS BUT BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT EACH BUILDING IS ONLY IN THE MORNING OR IN THE AFTERNOON THERE ARE NO BUILDINGS THAT ARE PUT INTO
SHADOW ON BOTH THE MORNING AND AFTERNOON. SO IT'S IT'S COMPLIANT. CORRECT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YES, THANK YOU MR.. COMMISSIONER OLNEY AND THEN
COMMISSIONER MUNSTER. I DO SEE YOUR HAND. GREAT. THANKS CHAIR. I THINK THIS IS PROBABLY A QUESTION WELL, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S FOR MS.. O'DEA OR FOR MR. ROBERTS. WILL THERE BE STOP SIGNS
INTERNAL TO THE PROPERTY TO BEFORE THEY GO OUT ONTO 86TH AND 87TH? WILL THAT HAVE A TRAFFIC CONTROL I MEAN ON THE PRIVATE PROPERTY? DO WE KNOW OR IS IT A REQUIREMENT?
THANKS CHAIRMAN. OFFICIALLY SO BY STATE STATUTE IT IS NOT REQUIRED THAT YOU HAVE STOP SIGNS ON DRIVEWAYS. STATE STATUTE READS THAT THE PERSON APPROACHING A MORE
MAJOR ROAD FROM A DRIVEWAY YIELD TO THROUGH TRAFFIC. HOWEVER, IF WE FIND CIRCUMSTANCES LIKE WE DON'T FEEL LIKE SITE DISTANCE IS ADEQUATE OR IF THE DRIVING
TEST IS JUST COMPLEX FOR WHATEVER REASON WE WILL REQUIRE STOP SIGNS AND SO THAT ALL COMES AS PART OF THE FINAL SIGNING AND STRIPING PLAN FOR THE DEVELOPMENT TO BE APPROVED BY THE CITY ENGINEER. SO TO YOUR QUESTION.
LONG ANSWER TO A SIMPLE QUESTION YES THEY'LL BE REQUIRED IF NEEDED. OF COURSE COMMISSIONER ALLEN, THANKS. AND THE SECOND PART IS IS HOW HEAVY IS THE TRAFFIC ON
BLOOMINGTON? AND IS THERE ANY RISK OF AT LEAST BASED ON THE DESIGN THAT PEOPLE WILL USE THE CUT THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT TO BYPASS BLOOMINGTON AVENUE? THAT WAS SOMETHING WE THOUGHT
ABOUT. SO BLOOMINGTON AVENUE HAS ABOUT 500 CARS A DAY SO IT'S GOING TO FALL INTO THAT LOW VOLUME LOCAL ROAD AND THEN OLD CEDAR IS MORE OF A COLLECTOR AND SO IT'S VOLUMES ARE IN THE
YOU KNOW HIGHER SIMILAR TO 86TH STREET. AND SO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT CUT THROUGH YOU THINK ABOUT A TIME ADVANTAGE. THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR WHEN THEY CUT THROUGH AND
BECAUSE IT'S NOT A STRAIGHT SHOT THROUGH THERE, IT'S UNLIKELY THAT PEOPLE WOULD FIND A TIME ADVANTAGE. I CAN'T SAY IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. SOME PEOPLE ARE INCREDIBLY BOLD AND SO I CAN'T SAY IT
WOULD NEVER HAPPEN. BUT THERE'S ONLY A FEW RESIDENTS ON 87TH STREET THAT WOULD ACTUALLY FIND A TIME ADVANTAGE BY CUTTING THROUGH THIS PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT. THE OTHER THING IS THE WAY THE
DRIVEWAYS ARE CONFIGURED IS THEY'RE FAIRLY NARROW. THERE'S CARS PARKED ALONG THE DRIVEWAY SO IT HAS A LOT OF BUILT IN TRAFFIC CALMING THAT'S GOING TO SUGGEST YOU'RE NOT IN A PUBLIC STREET. YOU BETTER SLOW DOWN. SO I CAN'T GUARANTEE THAT THAT
WILL NEVER HAPPEN. PEOPLE ALWAYS EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS ON HOW BOLD THEY CAN BE BUT IT IS UNLIKELY AND IT WOULD BE UP TO THOSE
APARTMENT OR THE TOWN HOMEOWNERS TO TO SOLVE THAT PROBLEM IF THEY NEEDED TO. THANK YOU, MR. ROBERTS. COMMISSIONER MUNSTER.
>> THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. I JUST HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT OPEN SPACE. I SEE IN THE REPORT THAT IT EXCEEDS THE REQUIREMENT FOR OPEN SPACE 20% REQUIRED, 32% IS PROVIDED.
I JUST I WANT TO CONFIRM THAT I'M WRAPPING MY HEAD AROUND THIS CORRECTLY. DOES THAT INCLUDE THE INFILTRATION BASIN IN OPEN SPACE OR DOES ADMIT IT WITHOUT INCLUDING THE INFILTRATION
BASE? MR. DE OR MR. JOHNSON GO ON. YEAH, CHAIR. COMMISSIONER MUNSTER IT DOES INCLUDE THE INFILTRATION BASIN. WE COULD PERFORM MORE PRECISE
MEASUREMENT ON THE FLY HERE FOR YOU. IT WOULD JUST TAKE ME A MOMENT TO DO THAT. BUT UNLIKE OUR MULTIFAMILY DISTRICTS WHICH HAS A SPECIFIC ROOM WHICH HAS A SPECIFIC DEFINITION FOR USABLE OPEN
SPACE TOWNHOME OPEN SPACE DOES NOT HAVE THAT SAME REQUIREMENT AS OUR MULTIFAMILY DISTRICTS IN TERMS OF MINIMUM DIMENSIONS AND AVAILABLE FOR ACTIVE OR PASSIVE RECREATION.
IT JUST TALKS ABOUT OPEN SPACE . >> NO PLEASE DON'T DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT CALCULATION. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT I WAS APPRECIATING THAT CORRECTLY. YOU ARE. THANK YOU. THANKS. THANK YOU.
MR. DE I HAVE A FEW RAPID FIRE ONES. I THINK THEY'RE ALL IN THE PACKET. I JUST WANT TO GET THEM INTO THE PUBLIC RECORD SO THIS THIS DEVELOPMENT OR PROPOSED
DEVELOPMENT HAS NO CITY ASSISTANCE ASSOCIATED WITH IT. NO HOA FUNDS OR TAX INCREMENT FINANCING NOTES OR ANYTHING OF THAT SORT.
NO CHAIR COMMISSIONERS NO THANK YOU. AND THEN I'M ALWAYS UNCLEAR ON THIS PART DEDICATION FEES FOR NEW BUILDS. YOU MENTIONED EARLY IN YOUR
PROPOSAL THAT OR YOUR PRESENTATION THAT THE IT'S ADJACENT TO TWO DIFFERENT PARKS. CAN YOU TALK ABOUT PARK DEDICATION FEES FOR THIS THIS
PROPOSAL AND WHERE THAT MONEY HOW THAT MONEY IS ALLOCATED THROUGHOUT THE CITY? >> I WILL DEFER TO EITHER ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY OR PLANNING MANAGER ON THAT ONE.
MR. TUSK YEAH. >> CHAIR COMMISSIONERS KEVIN TUSK ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY PARK DEDICATION IS SOMETHING THAT'S AUTHORIZED IN STATUTE WHEN PROPERTY IS BEING SUBDIVIDED. IT'S BASED ON A FORMULA THAT'S IN CITY ORDINANCE BUT IT'S
AUTHORIZED UNDER STATE LAW AND IT GOES TO CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS IN THE PARK SYSTEM BASED ON THE NEW DEMAND PUT ON IT BY ADDITIONAL RESIDENTS. RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS PAY THE BULK OF IT.
I THINK COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENTS THE RATIO IS A LOT LOWER BECAUSE THERE'S NOT PERMANENT RESIDENCE BEING CREATED BUT THAT'S WHAT IT'S FOR AND IT JUST GOES INTO A FUND FOR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS THAT DOES NOT GO INTO A FUND
FOR CAN'T BE USED FOR MAINTENANCE. SO IT HAS TO BE YOU KNOW CAPITAL PROJECTS. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF ?

PLEASE STEP FORWARD AND PLEASE REMEMBER TO SIGN IN ON THAT LEGAL PAD. AND ONE LAST HOUSEKEEPING THING I FORGOT TO WRITE DOWN.
PLEASE START BY STATING YOUR NAME BOTH MICROPHONES OUR LIVE SO EITHER ONE IS FINE BUT MY NAME IS DAVE KOZINSKI. I LIVE AT 1607 EAST 86TH
STREET SO I'M RIGHT ON THE EAST SIDE OF THIS PROGRAM THAT'S GOING UP. I DO HAVE A FEW CONCERNS. IT'S A SIX FOOT FENCE THAT'S GOING UP NOW BETWEEN ME AND
THEM. BUT YOU GOT THREE STORY YOU GOT A THREE STORY UNIT AND I'M ONLY A STORY AND A HALF AND I'M GOING TO HAVE TWO UNITS LOOKING DIRECTLY OVER ME SIX I
DO KIND OF HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT A SIX FOOT FENCE. I MEAN I'M GOING FROM A SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE NEXT TO ME TO 33 UNITS GOING UP IN THERE. NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN I'VE GOT A WHOLE BUNCH OF NEIGHBORS THAT
ARE GOING TO LOOK OVER ME. I DO HAVE MY OTHER CONCERN THAT I'D LIKE TO BRING UP IS WHEN THIS FIRST PROJECT FIRST STARTED THEY HAD THREE GUYS COME IN CUTTING DOWN TREES AND
I'M A VERY FORGIVING PERSON. I DIDN'T CARE THAT THEY STARTED BEFORE 7 A.M. AND THEY RAN TILL 10 P.M. AND SOME OF THOSE DAYS I LET IT GO. I LET IT GO AND THEY DROPPED A COUPLE OF TREES ON MY FRIENDS
IN THE BACK YARD. I LET THAT GO BUT I GOT TO TELL YOU AT THE MEETING THEY PROMISED THAT THEY WOULD ABIDE BY YOUR LAWS AND YOUR RULES THREE DAYS LATER TO SOME I
SHOWED UP ON 86TH STREET AT MIDNIGHT UNLOADING ALL THEIR HEAVY TRACKED EQUIPMENT FOR DEMOLITION AND UNLOADED IT AND ON TOP OF THAT INSTEAD
OF GOING TO THE CENTER BUILDINGS SO THAT THERE WAS NOBODY SURROUNDED IT YOU KNOW WHERE ALL THAT WAS UNLOADED AND PARKED 30FT FROM MY
BEDROOM AT TWO IN THE MORNING THEY PROMISED THAT THEY WOULDN'T DO THIS AND THEY THEY'RE STARTING OFF ON A BAD FOOT WITH ME. I'M A FORGIVING PERSON. BUT IF THIS PROJECT IS ALREADY
YOU'RE ALREADY PLANNING TO APPROVE THIS AS IT'S GOING THROUGH. I REALLY WANT THIS TO ABIDE BY YOUR RULES THAT YOU'VE ALREADY GOT. I MEAN, I'VE ALREADY GOING TO HAVE TO LIVE WITH LITERALLY
THREE STORY BUILDINGS RIGHT NEXT TO ME WHEN I ONLY HAD A SINGLE FAMILY HOME THERE NOW AND MY FENCE IN THE BACK IS ALREADY GONE BECAUSE I HAD TO PULL IT OUT AFTER THEY DROPPED TREES ON IT. NOW I'M ACTUALLY SITTING WIDE
OPEN EVERYTHING OUT THERE NOW BECAUSE OF THIS JUST MY CONCERNS. THANK YOU MR. KOZINSKI AND
PLEASE DO SIGN IN. MY NAME IS SUSAN PATTERSON AND I LIVE AT 8615 BLOOMINGTON
WITH THE PARK ACROSS THE STREET AND THEN WE HAVE WRIGHT PARK THERE. ARE WE GOING TO PUT CROSSWALKS IN TO HELP PROTECT THOSE KIDS?
PEOPLE GO SCREAMING BY ON 86 AND ON BLOOMINGTON AND IT'S WE NEED TO PROTECT THE KIDS AND THAT'S THE EASIEST WAY I CAN
THINK OF IS PAINTING AND PAINTING CROSSWALKS WHERE THE TREES ARE GOING TO GO. THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE 48 TREES.
WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO GO? THEY TOOK DOWN THE WOODS IN MY BACKYARD. ARE THEY ON WHAT TYPE OF TREES ARE THEY PUTTING IN?
IS THERE A MIXTURE? IS IT ONLY GOING TO BE CRAB APPLES THAT DOESN'T TAKE THE PLACE OF THE 40 FOOT TREES
THAT WERE THERE AND I MOVED IN HERE AND BOUGHT MY HOUSE 30 YEARS AGO BECAUSE I HAD THE WOODS IN THE BACKYARD.
>> NOW I'M GOING TO HAVE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT. >> IT'S NOT GOING TO BE QUIET ANYMORE. THEN THREE YEARS AGO I HAD MY
A 35 FOOT PIT IN THE FRONT OF MY HOUSE. THAT WAS THE START OF THE NEW SEWER WATER LINES GOING DOWN BLOOMINGTON AVENUE AND THEN ON
TO 86 AND THEN GOING DOWN TO WRIGHT'S PARK. MY PIT WAS THERE THE WHOLE ENTIRE NINE MONTHS.
IS THAT GONNA BE ENOUGH DRAINAGE AND WATER TO ADD 33 UNITS OF HOUSING?
ARE THEY GOING TO HAVE TO DIG UP IN FRONT OF MY YARD TO EXPAND IT? I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IS OKAY BEFORE WE GO ON AND
APPROVE ANYTHING. WE WENT TO THAT MEETING THAT HE HAD AND TO ACTUALLY WE WERE
KIND OF BLINDSIDED BY WHAT THE DEVELOPMENT WAS AND THEN WE ALL TALKED ABOUT IT AFTERWARDS AND WE'RE SITTING THE GO WHAT
YOU KNOW IS GOING ON AND WE'RE ZONED FOR SINGLE FAMILY HOUSING. HOW CAN THEY DO THIS? >> AND THEY'VE TAKEN ALL OUR TREES DOWN AND CLEARED THE
LOT, TAKEN PEOPLE'S HOUSES AWAY AND IT HASN'T BEEN APPROVED YET.
THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIRST. THANK YOU, MISS PETERSON . AND JUST IN THE INTEREST OF TIME SINCE IT LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE A LOT OF FOLKS THAT
WANT TO SPEAK, YOU'RE MORE THAN WELCOME TO SPEAK WHILE THE OTHER PERSON SIGNING IN MY NAME IS CRAIG PATTERSON. I'M SUSAN'S HUSBAND. SHE MADE A GOOD CHOICE.
THERE IS NO SIDEWALK. IT'S I'M 86 AND 87 AND SO
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE THE KIDS WALKING ON THE STREET IN WINTERTIME, STUFF LIKE THAT OR SOMETIMES ARE GOING TO HAVE CARDS GOING THROUGH THEIR HOW
MUCH TRAFFIC DID THE PLAN FOR FOR THAT I MEAN YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE ALL THESE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT ALL THESE PEOPLE OVER HERE WELL YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MANY HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE DRIVING.
I MEAN THE KIDS ARE GOING TO I'M GOING TO GET OUT OF SCHOOL. THEIR KIDS AND THEY DON'T CARE. THEY JUST RUN OVER THERE, RUN OUT AND AND GO OVER TO THE
PARK AND THERE'S NO SIDEWALKS ANYWHERE. SO DID SOMEBODY THINK ABOUT THAT? THERE'S NO SIDEWALKS. THE KIDS HAVE TO WALK ON THE
STREET BY THE CURB. THERE'S NO SIDEWALKS ANYWHERE THERE. AND SO NOW YOU'RE GOING TO PUT A WHOLE APARTMENT COMPLEX FOR
KIDS THAT MIGHT HAVE A WHOLE COMPLEX FOR KIDS AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE YOU'RE GOING TO THEY'RE GOING TO BE RUN ON FOR THE TRAFFIC. YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT THAT MUCH
BUT IT'S STILL GOT TRAFFIC AND IT IS WINTERTIME WHEN WE'RE GOING TO TAKE YOU OUT AND IT'S CALL SOMEBODY COULD SLIP. IT'S LIKE I SAY, NOBODY
THOUGHT ABOUT THAT BECAUSE THERE'S NO SIDEWALKS ON 86, THERE'S NO SIDEWALKS AND 87 HUH?
THERE IS AN 86 PARKING THERE IS AN 86 BUT I'M BLOOMINGTON AVENUE RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE CHURCH IS CHURCH SCHOOL.
THERE'S NO SIDEWALKS. OKAY. ON ONE SIDE YOU'RE NOT ON THE OTHER SIDE. THANK YOU. I'M THE CHURCH SIDE BUT NOT OURS. YEAH, IT'S NOT. IT'S ON THE CHURCH SIDE.
BUT NOT BUT NOT HERS. BUT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE KIDS COMING FROM THAT APARTMENT COMPLEX AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE COMING DOWN ON THE SIDE ON
THE SIDE OF THE STREET THAT THERE'S NO SIDEWALKS. ARE YOU GOING TO PUT SIDEWALKS IN ON 87TH ALL THE WAY ALL THE WAY DOWN? YOU GOT TO THINK OF THE KIDS I DROVE SCHOOL BUS FOR TEN YEARS
AND YOU GOT TO BE CAREFUL WITH THEM SO I THINK THEY BETTER GET THAT FIGURED OUT BECAUSE YOU GOT PEOPLE GOING TO ELDERLY PEOPLE AND THAT ARE
GOING TO BE USED IN THAT APARTMENT BUILDING AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE WHEELCHAIRS. THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE FOR REAL CARTS AND SOMEBODY EVENTUALLY
IS GOING TO SOMEBODY WHOEVER RENTS THE APARTMENT BUILDING YOU'RE GOING TO START SEEING GOLF CARTS RUNNING ALL OVER TOWN. MR. PETERSON, IF YOU COULD CUT YOUR OR ABBREVIATE YOUR
COMMENTS UNTIL THE END OF THE WHERE YOU'RE THREE MINUTES. YEAH, OKAY. I'M ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, MR. PETERSON. YOU DIDN'T HEAR ME ANYWAY
. HI, MY NAME IS LANA PRETEEN AND I LIVE AT 8548 16TH AVENUE
RIGHT ACROSS MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS TRAFFIC OVERFLOW PARKING.
IT'S GOING TO BE ON MY STREET AND THIS IS RESIDENTIAL. I DON'T NEED SOMEBODY HAS A PARTY.
WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO PARK? HOW MANY EXTRA SPOTS ARE THERE FOR ADDITIONAL PARKING AND I CAN SIT OUT MY WINDOW AND SEE
TRAFFIC BACKED UP. I'M 86 STREET AT FOUR IN THE AFTERNOON AND NO YOU'RE GOING TO ADD YOU KNOW, 50 MORE VEHICLES.
>> THAT'S THAT'S A REALLY BIG CONCERN FOR ME. THAT'S MY NUMBER ONE CONCERN
IS AND 86TH STREET USED TO BE FOUR LANES TWO GOING EACH WAY NOW IT'S ONE GOING EACH WAY AND THE TURN THOSE PEOPLE AREN'T GOING TO HAVE EASY ACCESS.
THEY'RE GOING TO BE SITTING THERE AND THAT'S A BIG CONCERN FOR ME IS THAT 87TH STREET
CAN'T HANDLE PEOPLE PARKING ON 87TH STREET AT ALL. SO THE OVERFLOW PARKING IS A CONCERN.
THE BUS STOP WHERE THE KIDS GOING TO GET PICKED UP FOR SCHOOL IS IT GOING TO BE ON 86? IS IT GOING TO BE ON 87TH AND
WHAT WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR THAT BECAUSE THERE ARE GOING TO BE KIDS AND THE THREE STORIES WE FOUND THIS HOUSE
HAS BEEN IN MY FAMILY FOR 72 YEARS AND THERE'S NEVER BEEN A THREE STORY REBUILD AND IT'S A CONCERN.
IT'S YOU KNOW, IT'S A CONCERN I'M SORRY POINT LEE WE'RE TAKING DOWN THE HOUSES THEY
THEY TOOK WINDOWS OUT. THEY DIDN'T BOARD THEM UP. I CALLED AND I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT PEOPLE GOING INTO THE HOUSES. SOMEBODY'S GETTING HURT AND
THEY JUST TAKE WINDOWS OUT AND LEAVE. AND I'M JUST CONCERNED ABOUT THE WHOLE PROJECT BECAUSE I AM
IT MEANS A LOT TO ME. I WAS NEVER INFORMED THE MEETING THAT THEY HAD IN MAY SO THIS WAS REALLY A BLIND
SIGHT TO ME. YOU KNOW, ARE THERE GOING TO BE FIRE HYDRANTS? WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE'S FIRE? YOU KNOW, CAN FIRE TRUCKS GET
THROUGH THERE? CAN YOU KNOW, IS THERE ROOM FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES? THERE'S GOING TO BE EMERGENCIES AND I'M CONCERNED,
MR. DEAN IF YOU COULD HOLD YOUR COMMENTS FOR THE NEXT THREE MINUTE PERIOD I'M SORRY. I'M JUST OKAY, THAT'S FINE .
I MY NAME IS CONNIE RIVARD. MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE MISSING MIDDLE HOUSING STUDY FINDINGS WERE THAT YOU NEW HOUSING SHOULD BE COMPATIBLE
AT THE SCALE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THIS IS CLEARLY NOT MOST OF OUR HOMES ARE 1 OR 1 AND A HALF STORY WITH A FEW TWO STORY HOMES AND 2 IN 1 WANTS TO BUILD THREE
STORY UNITS AS HAVE BEEN MENTIONED 41FT HIGH, THE HIGHEST STRUCTURE TWO TWO STOREY HOUSE 28FT. SO THAT'S QUITE A DRAMATIC CHANGE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD NOT
COMPATIBLE AS YOUR OWN GOALS. THE STUDY WERE FOUND ALSO THE STUDY FOUND AGING POPULATION WHO IN AGING PEOPLE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR A THREE STOREY
UNIT WITH STAIRS TO GET TO EVERY LEVEL TO GO TO BED, TO GO TO ANY LEVEL THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. STUDY SAID SMALLER HOUSEHOLD
SIZE WHY IN THE WORLD ARE THESE UNITS 2500 TO 30 200FT? WHO IS THE ACTUAL TARGET POPULATION THAT YOU'RE BUILDING FOR ACCESS TO THESE
MAJOR COLLECTOR ROADS? AS WAS MENTIONED 86 AND THE CEDAR BOTH USED TO BE FOUR LANE. NOW THERE ARE TWO LANE WITH THE CENTER TURNING LANE AND YES, KIDS WILL HAVE TO CROSS A MAJOR ROAD TO GET TO WRIGHT'S
LAKE IF YOU KNOW THAT AREA MAYBE YOU DON'T AND THERE WILL BE MORE TRAFFIC ON 87TH THAN HE INDICATED BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL GET TIRED OWAITING TO GET OUT ON 86 SO THEY'LL GO TO
87TH AND THIS NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WE LIKE TO WALK THROUGH AND OUR NEIGHBORS LIKE TO LIVE ON QUIETLY THAT'S WHAT THEY PICKED IS SUDDENLY GETTING TURNED UPSIDE DOWN. I HEARD AND I DON'T KNOW IF
THIS IS ACCURATE THE IMPERVIOUS SURFACE PERCENT I THOUGHT I HEARD IT WAS AS HIGH AS 80% AND IF THAT'S THE CASE THAT'S WAY EXCEEDS THE 45% FOR AT LEAST A TWO FAMILY UNIT.
SO MAYBE BUT THAT'S GOING TO CAUSE DRAINAGE ISSUES DEFINITELY CUTS DOWN ON GREEN SPACE. ALL THE RENDERINGS SHOW MATURE TREES BUT WE KNOW THAT'S THOSE
HAVE ALL BEEN CUT DOWN AND THERE'S GOING TO BE LITTLE TINY TREES THAT COUNT BUT THAT'S YOU'VE CUT DOWN THE GREEN SPACE. I WATCHED PARTS OF CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS ON FEBRUARY 23RD, MARCH 23RD AND APRIL
27TH. I DON'T UNDERSTAND ALL THE TERMINOLOGY BUT I HEARD THEM SAY THEY WOULD UPDATE THE CODE FOR ZONING TO ADD FIVE NEW HOUSING TYPES. I NEVER HEARD THEM SAY LET'S CHANGE THE ZONING.
THE STANDARD THEY SAID WAS NOT TO EXCEED TWO STOREYS OR 40FT. THEY SAID THERE WOULD BE A HEARING FOR REPLANTING. DID I MISS THAT COUNCILWOMAN DALLESSANDRO SPECIFICALLY SAID
PUBLIC NOTICE IS WAY TOO LATE IN THESE PROCESSES. I'LL COME BACK TO THAT NOW OR WHEN I COME UP AGAIN IN DISCUSSION OF OH H OH REQUIREMENTS WHY SOMEONE ASKED
WHY DID THEY INCLUDE MORE THAN 20 UNITS THAT SEEMED EXCESSIVE AND COMMISSIONER CAST AND HE SAID WELL IT'S A PRETTY LOW ODDS 1 TO 5% THAT A
DEVELOPMENT WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE MORE THAN 20 UNITS. WELL GUESS WHAT TWIN WIND IS DOING 33 UNITS. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES I'LL COME BACK. THANKS.
AND ONE OF THESE DAYS I'LL LEARN TO LOOK AT A GREEN LIGHT WHEN YOU DO COME BACK UP PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME JUST FOR THE RECORD YOU DO NOT NEED
TO SIGN IN A SECOND TIME . HELLO MY NAME'S STEVE EDELMAN. I LIVE 1578 EAST 87TH STREET.
THIS PROJECT THAT'S MY PROPERTY. I AM A 40 NINER. I WORK FOR A COMPANY. WE DIG HOUSES. I'VE DUG THIS VERY HOUSE OR
THIS VERY MULTIPLE TOWNHOUSE. I'VE GOT A COUPLE BIG CONCERNS ABOUT THE IMPERVIOUS AND THIS SITE IN THE FILTRATION AREA IS
ENOUGH TO HANDLE 100 YEAR FLOOD. I USED TO LIVE AT 1578 EAST 87TH STREET AND BACK IN THE 80S WE HAD A STORM COME
THROUGH AND DROPPED 12IN OF RAIN. IF THAT WOULD HAPPEN IN THIS SITE I'M AFRAID EVERYBODY AROUND THIS IS GOING TO END UP
GETTING FLOODED OUT IN ANOTHER CONCERN IS WHERE ARE THEY GOING WITH THE SNOW IN THE WINTERTIME? I SEE HOW THE SNOW BACKS UP
AND THERE'S VIRTUALLY NO AREA TO PUT ANY SNOW IN. THERE'S VERY LITTLE GREEN AREA TO PILE ANYTHING IN IT. THEY PUT IT IN THE FILTRATION AREA IN THE SPRINGTIME. IT'LL PLUG THAT UP.
SO THIS WHOLE THING IS KIND OF IT'S CRAZY AND GOING THREE STORIES IT JUST DOESN'T FIT THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT BLOCKS EVERYTHING.
IT'S GOING TO BLOCK THE SUN FROM A LOT OF HOUSES. I JUST I THINK IT'S SHOULD BE RELOOKED AND IT SHOULD BE CHANGED BECAUSE OTHERWISE
THERE'S GOING TO BE PROBLEMS. I'VE SEEN IT OUT IN THE FIELD WITH THE HOUSES ALL THE TIME AND TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS AFTERWARDS WHEN YOU GET A BIG RAIN AND IT'S JUST IT'S NO
GOOD TOO MUCH IMPERVIOUS. SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU MR. ALLEN FOR
SHARING A LITTLE. MY NAME IS ROGER RIVARD. I LIVE AT 1607 EAST ADA STREET AND I ALSO HAVE CONCERNS
REGARDING THIS PROJECT. FIRST OF ALL WAS THE JUST THE PROCESS? YES THERE WAS A MEETING HELD ON MAY 20TH AND WE ACTUALLY EVEN GOT A LETTER FOR IT BUT IT WAS AND HANDWRITTEN I THOUGHT IT WAS A PIECE OF JUNK
MAIL BECAUSE IT WAS SO UNPROFESSIONAL THAT I COULDN'T TELL THAT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. FINALLY THE REAL NOTIFICATION WE GOT WAS ACTUALLY SOMETHING FROM THE CITY OF BLOOMINGTON
AND THAT WAS ONLY SEVERAL WEEKS AGO ACCORDING TO THE WHEN I WAS LOOKING THROUGH THE DOCUMENTS THAT YOU HAD ON SITE IT'S THE CITY'S KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROJECT FOR AT LEAST A FEW MONTHS, MAYBE EVEN A
LITTLE LONGER. WHEN ARE THE RESIDENTS SUPPOSED TO FIND OUT ABOUT THIS? SO WE'VE ONLY BASICALLY HAD NOTICE FROM THE CITY FOR ONLY A COUPLE OF WEEKS. SO THAT'S A BIG CONCERN AND
THEY'VE ALREADY DONE THE DEMOLITION. SOME OTHER CONCERNS I HAVE ARE THAT THE YOU KNOW, WE'RE TRYING TO DO AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
WE TOOK DOWN PROBABLY SIX OF THE MOST AFFORDABLE HOUSE HOUSES IN BLOOMINGTON AND REPLACED THEM WITH THREE. AND AS FAR AS THEY ALSO HAVE
ADA CLAIM TO HAVE ADA UNITS, I BRIEFLY LOOKED THROUGH THE FLOOR PLANS. I DID NOT SEE ANY ELEVATORS IN THOSE ADA UNITS AND THESE ARE THREE STORY STARED BUILDINGS SO I DON'T SEE HOW ANYONE WITH THAT NEEDS ADA
COMPLIANCE IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET AROUND IN THOSE IN THOSE UNITS. ALSO THE CONCERN IS THAT
DURING ONE OF THOSE PLANNERS SLIDES SHE HAD THAT TOWNHOMES ARE GOOD FOR SINGLE AND TWO PERSON FAMILIES. THESE ARE FOUR AND FIVE BEDROOM UNITS. THESE ARE NOT FOR SINGLE AND
TWO PERSON PEOPLE AND THEN AS FAR AS THE TRAFFIC WAS CONCERNED, THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER WAS SAYING THAT THE NORMAL SINGLE FAMILY HOME WHICH IS PROBABLY LESS THAN 4
OR 5 BEDROOMS GENERATES TEN TRAFFIC STOPS A DAY. SO THAT'S YOU KNOW, ACCORDING TO MY ACCOUNTING THAT SHOULD BE 330 TRIPS A DAY, NOT THE
238 THAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT. SO SO IT SEEMS LIKE THE TRAFFIC'S BEEN UNDERESTIMATED BY AT LEAST A THIRD IF THESE
UNITS ARE TRULY GOING TO BE YOU KNOW, IF THEY'RE GOING TO BE FOUR AND FIVE BEDROOM UNITS ALSO AS OTHERS HAVE EXPRESSED THE HEIGHT.
SO WE HAVE ONE OF THE FEW TWO STOREY BUILDINGS AROUND AND AND AND AND EVEN FROM THAT YOU CAN SEE A LONG WAYS AND THESE THREE STOREY ONES I MEAN WE'RE A BLOCK AWAY WE'RE GOING TO BE
ABLE TO SEE KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO BE RISING BY THE TREES THAT ARE AROUND US SO OH AND ALSO
DURING THE DEMOLITION PHASE I THOUGHT THAT WAS HANDLED VERY UNPROFESSIONALLY. I MEAN THERE WAS NO SILT FENCING AROUND IT AS HAD BEEN SPECIFIED IN THE PLANS AND AND
I THINK IT'S BEEN ADDRESSED ALREADY IS JUST I HOPE THAT IS NOT ON AN INDICATION OF THE TYPE OF WORK THAT WE CAN EXPECT IN THE FUTURE ON THIS
PROJECT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. MR. GARDEN LOOKS IS THERE
ANYONE ELSE IN CHAMBERS THAT WOULD WISH TO TESTIFY? MS. BROWN IS THERE ANYONE ONLINE FROM ALL PARTICIPANTS ONLINE? OUR STAFF.
EXCELLENT. IS THERE ANYONE IN CHAMBERS THAT WOULD WISH TO TESTIFY FOR A SECOND TIME? CAN BE YOUR FIRST TIME AS WELL .
SO JUST CONTINUING I'M CONNIE RIVARD. SO I WATCH THOSE COUNCIL CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS AND I DID NOT HEAR THE PHRASE REZONING IN ANY ONE OF THESE THREE
MEETINGS I KEPT OUT YOU KNOW THEY TALKED ABOUT CHANGING THE CODE FOR THE FIVE TYPES OF HOUSING. SO I'M WONDERING DID I MISS THAT? WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN? AND I WANTED TO ADDRESS
COMMISSIONER DAKOTA CAST INDEED DIRECTLY BUT HE'S NOT HERE. BUT MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT HE SAID SOMETIME IN THIS PAST YEAR THAT HE WOULD NOT RECOMMEND OR PROMOTE REZONING OF RESIDENTIAL AREAS
OF BLOOMINGTON. I WONDERED IF HE ACTUALLY SAID THAT AND WHEN DID REZONING COME INTO THE CONVERSATION? >> AND THEN IN TERMS OF OTHERS
HAVE ALREADY ALLUDED TO THE COMMUNICATION AND PLANS THE WHOLE DEAL WHY IS THEY'VE ALREADY SAID WHY WAS THE NEIGHBORHOOD'S FIRST
COMMUNICATION REGARDING A 33 UNIT THREE STORY COMPLEX? WHY DID THAT COME FROM THE DEVELOPER AND NOT OUR OWN CITY STAFF WHO WORKS FOR US? YOU ALL WORK FOR THE RESIDENTS
. YOU DON'T JUST COMMISERATE WITH GREAT PLANS YOU WORK FOR US. WHY ARE WE FINDING OUT FROM UNPROFESSIONAL LEAVE FROM THIS DEVELOPER?
FIRST OF ALL THIS MAJOR CHANGE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE FIRST WE HEAR IS OF THIS MEETING TONIGHT AND THAT WAS PRETTY LATE IN THE PROCESS AND I SHOULD MENTION THAT I DID
HAPPEN TO TALK TO ONE OF THE PEOPLE WHO SOLD THEIR PROPERTY TO THE DEVELOPER. THEY FELT VERY PRESSURED TO DO SO AND THIS HAPPENED TO BE A SINGLE MOM WITH HER TEENAGE
CHILDREN WHO HAVE ESSENTIALLY BEEN PUSHED OUT OF BLOOMINGTON AND HAVE RELOCATED TO ANOTHER SUBURB. DOES IS THAT WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO HERE? IS THAT HOW WE TREAT OUR OWN
PEOPLE, OUR OWN RESIDENTS? WHY DID TWIN WIN PROCEED WITH THE PURCHASE AND DEMOLITION AND OF THE SIX PROPERTIES OVER TWO UP TO TWO YEARS AGO
BECAUSE THE FIRST ONE I KNOW THERE'S ANOTHER BUYER INVOLVED JANUARY OF 2024 WHEN IT WAS STILL ZONED R ONE THE RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY HOMES WHO WOULD DO THAT
WITHOUT A LUCRATIVE GOAL IN MIND? WHY WOULD IF THEY THOUGHT THEY COULD ONLY REPLACE IT WITH ANOTHER SINGLE FAMILY HOME WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT? THIS RAISES THE QUESTION IF AND WHO OF THE CITY STAFF
COMMUNICATED WITH TWIN WHEN LONG BEFORE WE HEARD ABOUT THE PLANS AND GAVE TWIN WIND THE SOFT GREEN LIGHT OR ASSURANCE THAT THIS WAS JUST A FORMALITY
TO GO THROUGH THAT THE CITY WOULD BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THIS 33 UNIT TOWNHOME ARE YOU CATERING? I ASKED THE CITY STAFF ARE YOU CATERING TO A SPECIFIC
DEVELOPER VERSUS WHAT'S BEST FOR YOUR CAN STUDENTS? THIS PROCESS ALSO RAISES THE PROSPECT THAT THIS IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG THAT THIS IS THE CAMEL'S NOSE UNDER THE
TENT DEVELOPERS WILL SYSTEMATICALLY IF THIS IF WE IF THIS HAPPENS THEY'LL PICK OFF OTHER PROPERTIES AND CONTINUE TO CREATE MORE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENTS
RESHAPING ALL OF EAST BLOOMINGTON IS THIS YOUR GOAL IN ORDER TO INCREASE THE POPULATION OF BLOOMINGTON? WHY IS BIGGER BETTER?
OBVIOUSLY THERE'S THE TAX BENEFIT BUT OC TAXES IS YOU KNOW THERE'S THAT'S A WHOLE SIDE ISSUE HOW DOES THIS BENEFIT THE CURRENT RETICENCE
RESIDENTS HOW DOES IT BENEFIT THE PEOPLE LIVING ACROSS THE STREET THAT MR. OF ART IF YOU COULD PLEASE WRAP UP WRAP UP THANK YOU WOULD YOU WANT THIS
HAPPENING IN YOUR OWN NEIGHBORHOOD? SURE. THE SHADOWS STUDIES ALL OF THESE THINGS. WOULD YOU EACH OF YOU ASK YOURSELVES AND ASK THE MAYOR WOULD HE WANT THIS HAPPENING IN HIS OWN NEIGHBORHOOD? WHY IS IT OKAY TO DO IT TO US
? ASK YOURSELVES THAT YOU WANT THIS HAPPENING NEXT DOOR TO YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU
. WELL, STEVE ADELMAN, I'M IN THE CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS AND I'VE BEEN WATCHING WHAT THEY'VE BEEN DOING AND THEY'VE LEFT THAT WHOLE AREA LOOKING
LIKE A BOMBING SITE. YOU KNOW, FROM WHEN THEY STARTED TAKING THE TREES DOWN TO WHEN THEY'RE TAKING HOUSES DOWN. THEY'VE NEVER HAD ANY EROSION
CONTROL, SILT FENCE. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SILT FENCE ALL THE WAY AROUND THAT SITE BEFORE THEY STARTED DOING ANYTHING. I'VE BEEN ON SITES BEFORE WHERE THEY'VE SHUT ME DOWN
BECAUSE THERE'S NO SILT FENCE . I'VE TORE HOUSES DOWN. I'VE DONE ALL THAT. DID THEY DO IT RIGHT? I MEAN THOSE HOUSES SHOULD
HAVE BEEN CHECKED TO SEE THAT EVERYTHING WAS TAKEN OUT. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN OUT. IS THERE A BUSINESS IN THEIR LAST HOUSE? I TORE DOWN THERE WAS TWO
FURNACES IN THERE. I HAD TO PULL THE FURNACES OUT . I HAD TO PULL THE HOT WATER HEATERS OUT. I HAD TO PULL THE RANGE OUT. WE HAD A WHOLE LIST FROM THE CITY OF STUFF THAT HAD TO BE PULLED OUT OF THE HOUSE BEFORE
I COULD EVEN TEAR IT DOWN IN THE LAST THING YOU DO BEFORE YOU TEAR HOUSE DON'T YOU GO THROUGH EVERYTHING AND MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S NOBODY IN THERE. SO I'VE TORE ON MY SHARE
OF HOUSES AND NONE OF THAT WAS DONE OUT HERE AND THEY GOT ONE MORE HOUSE TO GO DOWN. I HOPE THEY DO IT RIGHT. SO DO YOU NEED LOOK AT THEM GO
AFTER THEM. THEY'VE GOT TO GET THAT FILTER DONE SO AND THEY NEED TO MAINTAIN THAT AREA. IT'S GROWN UP IN WEEDS. IT STILL LOOKS LIKE A BOMBING SITE SO SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE
DONE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. ADELMAN. MY NAME IS ANDY THOR. I LIVE ON NOW 83RD AND
STEPHENS AND I JUST WANTED TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS DEVELOPMENT SILT FENCES IF YOU LOOK AT THE DEVELOPMENT OVER ON 86 AND I'LL TELL YOU THIS KIND OF IN THAT SILT FENCE HAS
ALREADY FALLEN OVER. YOU KNOW, IT'S BEEN SITTING THAT WAY FOR A LONG TIME SO STUFF IS JUST RUNNING RIGHT IN THE STREET. SO THE OVERSIGHT BY THE CITY ON THIS PROJECT LOOKS LIKE IT'S LACKING AT BEST. MY BIG CONCERN LIVING IN THE
CITY AS LONG AS I HAVE FOR ALMOST 55 YEARS IS I KNOW A NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT WORK IN THE CITY AND WHAT'S HAPPENING IS WE'RE GETTING PARKING PROBLEMS EVERYWHERE
ACROSS OF OUR CITY AND WHAT HAPPENS IS A CITY PLOWS CANNOT COME BACK AND POWER WHERE CARS RESIDE AND WE'RE NOT ENFORCING WE'RE NOT MOVING CARS WHEN
THEY'RE PARKED IN THE STREET. SO THIS DEVELOPMENT ONLY HAS NINE PARKING SPOTS. RIGHT. AND WATCHING THE DEVELOPMENT ON 86 AND TEN THE DEVELOPER CONVENIENTLY OFFERED PARKING
ACROSS THE STREET AT A PUBLIC PARK PARKING SPACE TO A TO ACCRUE OVERFLOW. THE OVERFLOW IS GOING TO ACTUALLY GO IN THIS PROPERTY DURING PEAK HOLIDAY SEASONS OR
BIRTHDAY PARTIES OR WHATEVER. IT'S GOING TO ACTUALLY GO IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE PARKING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AROUND THIS DEVELOPMENT. RIGHT. AND SO THE PROTECTIONS FOR REGULAR RESIDENT HOMEOWNERS ARE NIL AND THEY'RE THEY'RE
NONEXISTENT. RIGHT. SO A LOT OF OUR HOMES ARE RAMBLERS THEY'RE FLAT RAMBLERS WHICH ARE VERY GOOD FOR SENIOR LIVING THIS THESE THESE TOWNHOMES DON'T SCREAM SENIOR
LIVING WHATSOEVER LIKE THE PEOPLE SAID THERE'S NO ELEVATORS THAT I'M SENIORS DON'T THEY WANT FLAT LIVING THEY WANT TO PULL IN THEIR GARAGE STALL GO TO THEIR KITCHEN LIVE ON A MAIN FLOOR TYPE OF LIVING.
THIS IS GOING TO BE A LOT OF YOUNG FAMILIES. SO I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE PARKING HERE ACROSS THE CITY. THIS IS GOING TO BE A MASS THING NEEDS TO BE TABLED. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, MR. HILL IS THERE ANYONE ELSE IN CHAMBERS THAT WOULD WISH TO TESTIFY? MY NAME'S DAVE KOSINSKI AND 1607 EAST 86 STREET.
ONE MORE THING I FORGOT TO BRING UP EARLIER IS KIND OF WHERE THESE UNITS THAT ARE FACING 86TH STREET ARE THEY GOING TO BE AS FAR OFFSET AS THE OTHER HOUSES OR ARE THESE
CLOSER TO THE STREET? THE REASON I ASK IT IS A SIGHT LINE THING BUT IT'S FOR THOSE OF US THAT LIVE ON 86 AND HAVE TO TURN OUT ON 86 WE NEED AS
MUCH SPACE TO LOOK DOWN BECAUSE IN THE WINTER ALL THAT SNOW OFF 86 ENDS UP IN OUR FRONT YARDS. YOU CAN'T SEE WHEN YOU GET TO THE END OF YOUR DRIVEWAY I LITERALLY HAVE TO LOOK WHEN I GET PAST MY HOUSE DOWN TO SEE
WHAT'S COMING IF THAT HOUSE IS NOT BACK SET, IF THOSE UNITS AREN'T BACK UP LIKE MINE, I'M GOING TO LOSE ALL THAT SIGHTLINE. IT IS SOMETHING YOU DON'T WANT. I FORGOT TO BRING UP EARLIER BUT THE SNOW IS KIND OF AN
ISSUE ESPECIALLY NOW SINCE YOU'VE CHANGED YOUR PLAN ON HOW YOU IF YOU'RE EVEN GOING TO PLOW SIDEWALKS ANYMORE AND EVERYTHING ELSE. SO IT ALL HAS AN EFFECT ON US AS WE GO THROUGH ALL THIS.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. KOZINSKI . I'M SUSAN PATTERSON AND IT'S I HEARD HIM SAY THAT THEY WERE
NOT GOING TO HAVE STOP SIGNS AT THE EXIT OF THE TOWNHOUSES BECAUSE IT'S NOT REGULATED THAT THEY SHOULD UH THAT'S
PART OF THIS ROAD ACCESS THAT IF THEY'RE WAY AHEAD OF US AND THEY DON'T HAVE STRAPS SIGNS THEY CAN GO UP AND OUT AND
THAT BUT WE HAVE TO STOP AND WAIT AND WAIT AND WAIT BECAUSE WE'RE BACK FURTHER THAN THEY
ARE AND IT IS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE WITH PARKING IF I'VE BEEN TO TOWNHOUSES WHERE THEY
HAVE MINIMAL PARKING FOR GUESTS AND I'VE HAD TO PARK ON STREETS AND YOU KNOW IF YOU
HAVE A PARTY WHERE YOUR GUESTS ARE GOING TO PARK, THEY'RE GOING TO PARK ON THE STREETS ON 87 ON BOTH SIDES IT GETS
PRETTY TIGHT MOST TIMES BUT IT'S GOING TO BE EVEN TIGHTER . SO IT'S JUST WE ARE I THINK
I'M SPEAKING FOR EVERYBODY THAT I THINK WE FEEL LIKE WE'VE BEEN BLINDSIDED WITH THIS BECAUSE THEY TORE DOWN THE TREES.
THERE'S NO SIGNAGEGE THAT A DEVELOPMENT COMPANY IS DOING ANYTHING AND THE KIDS CAN WALK
ACROSS THAT GRASS AND I'M SURE THERE'S GLASS THERE THE WAY THEY TORE DOWN THE HOUSES THEY JUST TOOK A BACK HOLE AND CHOP
DOWN ON IT. SOME OF THOSE HOUSES HAD BASEMENTS, SOME DIDN'T. IS IT PACKED DOWN GOOD WHERE THE BASEMENTS WERE AND THERE'S
GLASS IN THERE AND OTHER PIPE AND OTHER STUFF THAT'S LEFT FROM THE DEMOLITION THEY NEED TO GET VENTING OUT.
THANK YOU, MS.. PATTERSON . ROGER RIVARD AGAIN. YEAH. JUST HIGHLIGHTING IN ADDITION WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN SAYING
ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE DEMOLITION. I GUESS ONE OF THE CONCERNS IS IF THAT'S WHAT IF THAT'S THE FOOT THEY'RE PUTTING FORWARD ALREADY JUST IN THE DEMOLITION PHASE, YOU KNOW, WHAT
ASSURANCES DO WE HAVE? YOU KNOW WHAT THE QUALITY OF THE BUILD IS GOING TO BE AND THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE AND YOU KNOW HOW THEY'RE GOING TO BE TREATING THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE AS FAR AS FOLLOWING ANY OF THE
RULES THAT THEY HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING DURING THE DEMOLITION PHASE. SO IS IT I GUESS A QUESTION THAT I HAVE FOR THE STAFF IS YOU KNOW, IS THERE ANY KIND OF VETTING PROCESS THAT THEY HAVE TO DO FOR WELL FOR DOING
DEMOLITION BUT IS THERE A NEED FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THIS PROJECT AND YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY'RE ACTUALLY IN THE PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTING? SO THAT'S MY QUESTION FOR THE STAFF. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. RIVARD. AND I APOLOGIZE FOR MESSING UP
YOUR LAST NAME THE LAST TIME YOU WERE UP. THANK YOU. THE FIRST TIME IS STILL IN PLACE. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE IN CHAMBERS THAT WOULD WISH TO
TESTIFY ON THIS ITEM JUST SO I'LL BE BETTER THIS TIME? THIS ALANA PRETEEN AND MY CONCERN NOW STILL IS THERE'S
DIRT BIKES, KIDS ON DIRT BIKES GOING UP THERE. THERE'S NO FANCY NOTHING TO KEEP THEM OUT AND SOMEBODY IS
GOING TO GET HURT. AND GROWING UP ON 86TH STREET BACK IN THE 60S AND 70S WE HAD NO PARKING SIGNS AND 16TH
AVENUE BECAUSE OF THE METS CENTER AND BECAUSE PEOPLE WOULD PARK AND WALK TO THE CENTER IF IT GETS TOO BAD YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PUT UP SIGNS AND WHERE ARE THE ALL
THE CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES GOING TO PARK? I DON'T LIKE IT AT ALL. SO THAT'S A CONCERN.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU . THE SAME THING. OKAY. HOW COME THEY DIDN'T HOW COME
THEY DIDN'T BRING THAT TO US BEFORE I COULD ASK FOR BUT WHY DIDN'T THEY BRING THIS UP BEFORE THEY TORE ALL THE HOUSES DOWN AND THAT THE WHOLE
YARD SCREWED UP OUR WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD AND NOW IT SO THEY SHOULD HAVE LET US KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON BECAUSE
NOBODY NOBODY WANTS IT. THANK YOU, MR. PETERSON . OKAY. IF IS THERE ANYONE ELSE THAT
WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM IN CHAMBERS OR ONLINE? I'M DAN VAN OPEN AND I LIVE JUST WEST SO MY HOUSE IS THE
NEXT THE TWO STORY HOUSE JUST WEST OF THE PROPERTIES. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT HOW CLOSE THEY WERE GOING TO BE TO MY LAND. I DON'T KNOW HOW CLOSE THEY
ARE GOING TO BE AND I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE THE WHERE THE TREES ARE GOING TO BE AND I'M JUST I'M CONCERNED ABOUT
ALL OF IT. SO I JUST WANT TO PUT THAT OUT THERE THAT THIS IS GOING TO AFFECT MY PROPERTY. IT'S GOING TO AFFECT MY PROPERTY WHEN I WANT TO SELL
MY PROPERTY AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT WHAT THAT'S GOING TO DO FOR ANY OF THAT. SO I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT THANK YOU MISTER AND OPEN IS
THERE ANYONE ELSE THAT WOULD WISH TO TESTIFY ON THIS ITEM? MISS BROWN? IS THERE ANYONE ONLINE ALL PARTICIPANTS ONLINE ARE STAFF HEARING THAT I WOULD ENTERTAIN
A MOTION TO CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING COMMISSIONER MELANIE I MOVED TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING SECOND WE HAVE A MOTION IN A SECOND TO CLOSE THIS PUBLIC HEARING. IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION?
HEARING NONE WITH COMMISSIONER MUNSTER REMOTE WE'LL BE DOING ROLL CALL VOTING MR. BROWN PLEASE CALL THE ROLL
CUNNINGHAM I SAY HI LENNY. HI COLEMAN I IN MUNSTER OH I'M SORRY THAT PUBLIC HEARING IS
CLOSED. ALL RIGHT, WE MOVE THEN TO DISCUSSION AND A LONG LIST OF CONCERNS RAISED BY RESIDENTS AND MAYBE SOME MORE FOOD FOR THOUGHT. WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO LEAD US OFF WITH REQUESTS?
COMMISSIONER GREAT. THANK YOU, CHAIRMAN. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO FIRST IS ASK IF THE CITY COULD KIND OF TALK THROUGH THE PROCESS WELL TO TWO DIFFERENT PARTS
OF THE PROCESS. NUMBER ONE, IF YOU CAN TALK THROUGH WHAT THE PROCESS IS ON NOTIFICATION AND SORT OF HOW THAT ALL WORKS. AND THEN THE SECOND THING IS IF YOU COULD EDUCATE US ALL ON
UNDERSTANDING WHAT THE PROCESS IS FOR DEMOLITION, RECOGNIZING THAT THIS THESE ARE PRIVATELY OWNED PROPERTIES AND OWNERS HAVE SOME RIGHTS IF YOU COULD KIND OF TALK THROUGH WHAT
THOSE PERMISSIONS HAVE TO LOOK LIKE, THIS WOULD CHAIR AND COMMISSIONER LENNY I CAN SPEAK TO THE NOTIFICATION PIECE AND MAYBE IF MR. JOHNSON WILL
SPEAK TO THE DEMO PIECE NOT AS FAMILIAR WITH THOSE STANDARDS AS FAR AS NOTIFICATION GOES, THESE ITEMS REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING BY PLANNING COMMISSION AND CITY COUNCIL SO WHENEVER THERE IS A PUBLIC HEARING
STAFF SENDS OUT A NOTIFICATION TO PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN 500FT OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY LOCATION AND THOSE ARE TYPICALLY SENT OUT AND ALSO
THERE IS A NEWSPAPER NOTIFICATION IN THE SUN CURRENT TEN DAYS IN ADVANCE OF THE MEETING SO THAT IS OUR
NOTIFICATION PROCESS. AND TO THAT END, MR. JOHNSON YEAH. CHAIR CUNNINGHAM COMMISSIONER LANIER, CAN YOU HEAR ME OKAY, SORRY. JUST TO ADD ON TO WHAT LIZ
PLANNER O'DAY SAID IS THAT THE STATE REQUIRES A NOTICE BOUNDARY OF 350FT. THE CITY OF BLOOMINGTON FOR A LONG TIME HAS EXTENDED THAT BOUNDARY TO 500FT SO WE DO EXCEED THE STATE REQUIREMENTS STATE REQUIRES THAT THE NOTICE
BE MAILED TEN DAYS BEFORE THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE FORMAL PUBLIC HEARING. WE TRY AND GET THAT OUT AS EARLY AS WE CAN AS SOON AS WE HAVE A COMPLETE APPLICATION NOT TO GET SUPER INTO THE WEEDS OF HOW DEVELOPMENT REVIEW WORKS BUT OFTENTIMES WE
GET DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS THAT ARE INCOMPLETE. THEY'RE MISSING CORE COMPONENTS THAT YOU NEED TO REVIEW THE APPLICATION. SO SOMETIMES THESE APPLICATIONS ARE DEEMED INCOMPLETE AS SOON AS THE
APPLICATION IS DEEMED COMPLETE THEN WE'RE TRYING TO GET THAT NOTICE OUT AS SOON AS WE CAN TO NOTIFY FOLKS. THE CITY OF BLOOMINGTON DOES NOT HAVE A FORMAL NEIGHBORHOOD NOTICE REQUIREMENT BY THE
APPLICANT. HOWEVER WHAT WE DO IS WHEN ON PROJECTS THAT WE KIND OF KNOW OR ARE ANTICIPATING MORE NEIGHBORHOOD INTEREST, WE DO ENCOURAGE THE APPLICANT TO DO
THAT EARLIER ON IN THE PROCESS TO GET THAT FEEDBACK SO THEY CAN START THAT CONVERSATION EARLIER. THAT DID OCCUR IN THIS CASE IT SOUNDS LIKE SO JUST GIVING YOU
A LITTLE BIT MORE FEEDBACK ABOUT PUBLIC NOTICE DO YOU WANT ME TO TALK ABOUT THE YEAH BUT IF I CAN ASK A FOLLOW UP QUESTION ON THAT. SO THE CITY DOES NOT DO ANY NOTIFICATION UNTIL THE
APPLICATION PACKAGE IS FINAL. ANYTHING BEFORE THAT WOULD BE INITIATED AT THE DEVELOPER CHOICE ALTHOUGH THE CITY RECOMMENDS THAT THE DEVELOPER DO IT I UNDERSTAND THAT
CORRECTLY GERIATRICIAN IN YOUR UNDERSTANDING THAT CORRECTLY AND THEN ALSO ADDITIONAL COMMENTS ABOUT YOU KNOW HOW LONG IS THE CITY KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROCESS? IT'S VERY COMMON FOR THE CITY TO DO WHAT'S CALLED A PRELIMINARY APPLICATION REVIEW
VERY EARLY ON IN THE PROCESS AND AT THAT STAGE THE APPLICATION IS VERY RUDIMENTARY. IT'S A BASIC SITE PLAN. IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY CIVIL ENGINEERING BEHIND IT. IT DOESN'T HAVE NECESSARY EVEN ALWAYS FORMAL ARCHITECTURAL
DESIGN BEHIND IT. AND THE REASON BEING IS THAT IT'S VERY EXPENSIVE TO PUT ALL THESE PLANS TOGETHER AND SO IT'S TRUE THAT THE CITY HAS RECEIVED MULTIPLE PRE APPLICATION REVIEWS AS PART
OF THIS PROJECT AND PROVIDED COMMENTS BACK TO THEM IN TERMS OF WHAT OUR CITY CODES REQUIRE, WHAT OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SAYS, ALL OF THOSE THINGS BUT PROJECTS THAT GO THROUGH PRELIMINARY REVIEW DON'T ALWAYS RESULT
IN A FORMAL APPLICATION BEING SUBMITTED SO AS TO THE QUESTION AS TO WHY THE CITY DOESN'T ISSUE A NOTICE AT THE TIME OF PRELIMINARY REVIEW WE DON'T HAVE ALL THE PLANS THAT WE NEED TO DO A MORE THOROUGH REVIEW AT THAT TIME AND NOT
ALL OF THOSE APPLICATIONS ACTUALLY RESULT IN FORMAL DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS. THANK YOU. AND THEN ON THE DEMOLITION QUESTION YES, MR. JOHN, I HAVE
A I HAVE A FOLLOW UP ON THE NOTIFICATION THE SIGN. MR. COLEMAN YEAH, THE SIGN THAT SAYS LIKE THERE IS A LAND USE ACTION IN YOU KNOW LIKE THE CITY OF BURLINGTON SIGN DOES THAT WHEN DOES THAT GET
ADDED IS THAT AT THE WHEN IS THAT ADDED IN THE PROCESS? CHAIR COMMISSIONER COLEMAN THAT GETS ERECTED THAT'S DEPLOYED BY OUR PUBLIC WORKS STAFF WHEN WE HAVE A COMPLETE APPLICATION SO SIMILAR TO US
TRYING TO GET THE MAILED NOTICES OUT AS EARLY AS WE CAN. I THINK IN THIS CASE THE MAILED NOTICE WENT OUT ON JUNE THE 26TH FOR THIS JULY 9TH HEARING. JUNE 24TH WAS WHEN IT WAS
MAILED OUT OF CITY HALL SO IT EXCEEDS THE TEN DAYS REQUIRED BY CITY LAND OR STATE LAW OR RATHER STATE LAW REQUIRES IT BE POSTMARKED TEN DAYS BEFORE THE HEARING. I RECOGNIZE THERE'S A WHOLE
WIDE VARIETY OF DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES AND ABOUT WHAT IS ADEQUATE NOTIFICATION. I JUST WANT TO ASSURE EVERYONE THAT WE VERY MUCH AT THE CITY FOLLOW STATE LAW AND EXCEED IT. THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER.
AND THEY COULD YOU REPEAT YOUR QUESTION ABOUT DEMOLITION? SURE. THANKS, CHAIR. IF YOU COULD KIND OF TALK THROUGH THE PROCESS FOR DEMOLITION, ARE PERMITS REQUIRED?
WHAT ARE THE CITY'S REQUIREMENTS FOR MAINTAINING THIS? THE DEVELOPER MEAN TAINING THE SITE'S WATER ENFORCEMENT POSSIBILITIES AND ACTIONS AND WHO RESIDENTS NEED TO CONTACT
IF THERE ARE CONCERNS AND THINGS THAT ARE ENFORCEABLE UNDER BLOOMINGTON CITY LAW? >> MR. JOHNSON I'M GOING TO ASK CAN YOU LOOK AT THE PRELIMINARY THANK YOU.
SO TO GET TO THE BROADER POINT, YES, YOU NEED A PERMIT TO DO DEMOLITION ON ANY SITE AND THE FIVE DWELLINGS THAT HAVE BEEN DEMOLISHED ALL DID HAVE DEMOLITION PERMITS.
THEY'VE ALL PASSED FINAL INSPECTION EXCEPT FOR ONE 1606 EAST 87TH STREET IS THE PERMIT IS UNDER REVIEW BECAUSE THAT'S
THE HOME THAT HAS NOT YET BEEN DEMOLISHED. BUT ALL OF THE SITES THAT HAVE DEMOLITION PERMITS IN ADDITION TO THAT YOU'RE REQUIRED TO GET A UTILITY PERMIT TO DISCONNECT THE HOME FROM THE CITY'S UTILITIES. YOU HAVE TO ABANDON THE SEWER
AND WATER SERVICE SO THAT REQUIRES A UTILITY PERMIT. AND THEN IN THE CASE OF THESE HOMES NOT ALWAYS BUT THESE HOUSES ALSO HAVE WELLS ON THESE SITES THAT ARE REQUIRED TO BE SEALED UNDER STATE LAW.
AND SO STAFF DID FIND WELL PERMITS ASSOCIATED WITH ALL THESE PROJECTS IN TERMS OF THE ACTIVITIES THAT ARE HAPPENING DAY TO DAY WITH THE WITH THE DEMOLITION PROJECT, WE DO SEE
A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT WORKMANSHIP OR KIND OF EROSION CONTROL AND SITE CONTROL FROM DIFFERENT CONTRACTORS. OUR BUILDING STAFF CERTAINLY
TRIES TO CONTACT THEM AND WORK WITH THEM DIRECTLY ON SITE WHEN THERE ARE VIOLATIONS OF THE BUILDING CODE. SO IF THAT DID NOT ADEQUATELY HAPPEN EARLY ON IN THE PROCESS ,THAT'S WHERE WE DO WANT TO HEAR FROM THE PUBLIC AND YOU
CAN CALL THE BUILDING AND INSPECTIONS LINE AT (952)563-8930 THAT'S ON OUR WEBSITE. WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU IF THINGS ARE NOT GOING ACCORDING TO STATE BUILDING CODE OR NOT
BEING HANDLED CORRECTLY, WE DO WE DO WANT TO BE SENSITIVE TO THAT FOR SURE. SO YEAH, THEY HAVE ALL THE NECESSARY PERMITS THAT THEY NEED. MOST OF THE PERMITS HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN FINAL OUT AND
FINAL INSPECTION HAS PASSED ME NOT BEING ON SITE I CAN'T SPEAK TO THE I TRUST THE EXPERIENCE OF THE RESIDENTS IN TERMS OF WHAT THEY WHAT WAS HAPPENING AS FAR AS IF I MAY
JUST ONE OTHER THING ABOUT THERE ARE WORK HOURS OF WORK REQUIRED UNDER CITY CODE. YOU CAN'T START WORK THAT EARLY IN THE MORNING AND YOU CAN'T BE WORKING PAST THE HOURS THAT I WAS HEARING ABOUT
FROM ONE OF THE RESIDENTS HERE. SO THAT'S ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE ISSUES THAT IF A CONTRACTOR ASSOCIATED WITH ANY TYPE OF PROJECT IT COULD BE A SINGLE SIMPLE SINGLE FAMILY HOME RENOVATION IF THEY'RE NOT
ABIDING BY OUR HOURS OF CONSTRUCTION THEN WE WANT TO KNOW THAT AND WE WANT THE BUILDING OFFICIAL WANTS TO DO ENFORCEMENT ON THAT. CERTAINLY.
THANK YOU, MR. JOHNSON. ANY FISH FOR COLEMAN AND NOW SIR, I APOLOGIZE. THE PUBLIC HEARING IS CLOSED. THIS ITEM IS NOT A FINAL DECISION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
I DON'T KNOW BUT I JUST WANT TO SAY SIR, PLEASE. I'M SORRY YOU DID YOU JUST SIT DOWN, MR. COLEMAN? YES. THANK YOU, CHAIR SO THERE WAS A QUESTION ABOUT THE TYPES
OF TREES I DID. I HELPED STAFF OUT A LITTLE BIT. IT IS IN PAGE L ONE OF THE CIVIL PLANS THERE WILL BE 17
RIVER BIRCHES AND 31 BLACK HILLS SPRUCES SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WAS POINTED OUT ALSO ABOUT SILT FENCES. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER THAT IS A
FACTOR IN DEMOLITION BUT I'M NOT A PROFESSIONAL ON THAT NAME BUT ON THE CIVIL PLANS ALSO ON PAGE L 12 IT SAYS THAT
THE PROPOSED ASSAULT FENCE PER CITY STANDARDS ARE ON PAGE L 12 OR C 12 SORRY AND COMMISSIONER COMMENT TO THAT TO THAT KIND OF POINT ON SILT
FENCE EROSION CONTROL, STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION. SO WE HAVE A COUPLE OF MEMBERS OF THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT. WOULD YOU GUYS CARE TO COMMENT ON THAT AT ALL
? I AND ONCE WE TALK ABOUT THAT I'VE GOT A FEW OTHER ONES FOR YOU. MS. LONG SO CHAIR CUNNINGHAM
COMMISSIONERS, WE DO REQUIRE WHEN THEY GET TO THE GRADING STAGE THAT THEY HAVE TO HAVE CELL PHONES AND OTHER EROSION CONTROL MEASURES LIKE IN LIKE PROTECTION OUT ON THE STREETS.
AND ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS WE DO IS WE SEND OUR EROSION CONTROL INSPECTOR OUT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT IS ALL IN PLACE BEFORE IT GETS THE MAJOR CONSTRUCTION GETS STARTED ON THE PROJECT.
EXCELLENT. THERE WAS A QUESTION FROM A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC ABOUT SEWER AND WATER CAPACITY. >> DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS OR FEEDBACK ON THAT? YES.
THE RESIDENTS ALONG BLOOMINGTON AVENUE HAVE THE PATIENCE OF A SAINT. IN 2017 WE HAD A LARGE SANITARY SEWER PROJECT THAT REALLY DISRUPTED THEIR
NEIGHBORHOOD FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR. USUALLY WE'RE IN FOR LIKE 2 OR 3 MONTHS AND THEN WE GO AWAY. WE WERE THERE THE WHOLE YEAR.
THAT SEWER IS 27FT DEEP AND IT IS 24IN IN DIAMETER SO THERE IS ENOUGH CAPACITY ON BLOOMINGTON AVENUE BUT I WILL LET YOU KNOW THAT WE DO HAVE
OTHER SANITARY SEWER PROJECTS IN OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN IN THE AREA. THE TWO CLOSEST ONES TO THIS PROJECT ARE ON 13TH AVENUE
FROM 82ND TO 86TH AND THE YEAR IS IN FLUX FOR THAT WE ARE WORKING ON HOW TO FINANCE SOME OF THESE PROJECTS. AS THE COMMISSION IS AWARE WE ARE HAVE BEEN SPENDING A LOT
OF MONEY IN OUR SEWER CAPITAL BUDGETS AND THE OTHER PROJECT IS ON OLD CEDAR AVENUE SO IT'S KIND OF BOOKING ENDS BUT THERE
IS NOT NO PLANS CURRENTLY AT THIS TIME FOR ADDITIONAL SEWER IN THAT AREA. THE AREA IS ALSO SERVED VERY WELL BY A NICE WATER MAIN AND
A 60 INCH STORM SEWER PIPE THAT DRAINS TO WRIGHT'S LAKE. SO I DO NOT ANTICIPATE ANY OF THIS DEVELOPMENT CAUSING A NEED FOR INCREASED CAPACITY
IN ANY OF THOSE THREE PROJECT OR ANY OF THOSE THREE MAIN CITY UTILITIES. I WILL SAY THE DESIGN STANDARDS FOR STORMWATER ARE CONTINUALLY TO EVOLVE.
THERE IS SOMETHING CALLED THE MID-CENTURY STORM WHICH IS DESIGNING OUR STORM SEWER PIPES FOR A 2050 EVENT THAT WE
CURRENTLY HAVE NOT STARTED TO DESIGN OUR SYSTEM FOR. SO IF THAT BECOMES STANDARD PROTOCOL IN THE FUTURE THERE MAY BE A STORM PROJECT NOT ONLY IN THIS AREA BUT ALL
OF BLOOMINGTON THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO UPSIZE OUR STORMWATER FACILITIES TOWARDS. >> THANK YOU MS. LONG AND COMMISSIONER MONSTER I SEE YOUR HAND. I'LL GET TO YOU RIGHT AFTER THIS NEXT ONE. THERE WAS A CONCERN ABOUT A
POTENTIAL FLOODING. CAN YOU TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT THE CITY DOES AS FAR AS REVIEWS OF THESE PROJECTS FOR STORMWATER INFILTRATION ON SITE, HOW IT GOES OFF SITE, THINGS ALONG THOSE LINES?
SURE. A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT THINGS. WE MAINLY LOOK AT VOLUME AND RATE SO WE REQUIRE THEM TO
TREAT 1.1IN FOR THE VOLUME TO KEEP THAT ON SITE. SO THAT'S WHY YOU SEE THAT INFILTRATION AREA AND THEN WE DON'T PERMIT THEM TO INCREASE THE RATE AT ALL. SO WHATEVER THE
PRE-DEVELOPMENT STORM DISCHARGE IS WHAT THE POST DEVELOPMENT STORM DISCHARGE NEEDS TO BE SO THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY INCREASE IN FLOODING DUE TO THIS SITE. I WILL ALSO SAY THAT AT THE
INTERSECTION OF 15TH AVENUE AND 86 THERE IS A KNOWN FLOODING AREA ON OUR MODEL AND THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT THAT AS LIKE I
MENTIONED EARLIER WITH THE MID-CENTURY STORM LIKE AS RAINFALL INTENSITY INCREASES AND RAIN STARTS TO FALL REALLY RAPIDLY, WE DO NEED TO START
LOOKING AT THAT BUT THAT IS UPSTREAM OF THIS DEVELOPMENT. AND THEN THE YEAH, I THINK THOSE ARE THE POINTS. EXCELLENT. THANK YOU. COMMISSIONER MUNSTER.
>> THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. FOLLOW UP QUESTION ON THE DEMOLITION AND THEN I HAVE A SEPARATE QUESTION FOR DEMOLITION PERMITS IS IT REQUIRED THAT SOMEONE HAVE A REDEVELOPMENT PLAN PROPOSED OR
APPROVED BEFORE A DEMOLITION PERMIT CAN BE ISSUED? >> MR. JOHNSON CHAIR COMMISSIONER MUNSTER IT IS NOT ANY RESIDENT ANY PROPERTY OWNER CAN SUBMIT A DEMOLITION
PERMIT AND DEMO A STRUCTURE. AN EXAMPLE OF THAT AS A SOUTH GATE OFFICE BUILDING ALONG FOR 94 THE CITY JUST RECEIVED A DEMO PERMIT FOR THAT PROJECT WITHOUT ANY CONTACT FROM CITY
STAFF. SO NO IT IS NOT A REQUIREMENT THAT A DEVELOPMENT PLAN BE APPROVED PRIOR TO TAKING THAT ACTION. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AND THEN SORT OF A VERY SIMILAR QUESTION ON REMOVAL
OF TREES IS A PERMIT REQUIRED? IS ANYTHING REQUIRED FOR SOMEBODY TO REMOVE TREES ON PRIVATE PROPERTY? CHAIR COMMISSIONER MUNSTER, IT IS NOT THE ONLY WRINKLE TO
THAT IS THAT PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PLATS FOR PROJECTS IN THE R-1 ZONING DISTRICT DO REQUIRE TREE PRESERVATION PLANS. GIVEN THAT THIS IS PROPOSED TO
BE REZONE TO R THREE, A TREE PRESERVATION PLAN WOULD NOT BE A REQUIREMENT AS PART OF THIS PROPOSAL AND THAT TRACKS WITH ALL THE CITY'S HISTORIC APPROVALS AND REVIEWS ON TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENTS.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU AND THANK YOU MS. LONG I THINK I HAD ALL OF MY QUESTIONS FOR ENGINEERING ANSWERED. ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANYTHING ELSE FOR STAFF OTHERWISE I STILL
GOT A BUNCH AND I'LL GO MR. ROBERTS AND YOU COME RIGHT BACK UP . >> APOLOGIES FOR NOT KNOWING THE ANSWER TO THIS ONE.
I'M AT THE SPLASH PAD A BLOCK FROM HERE ALL THE TIME BUT I DON'T KNOW IS THERE PARKING PERMITTED ON 87TH STREET RIGHT NOW? MR. CHAIRMAN COMMISSIONERS, THERE'S A SMALL SECTION THAT
IS RESTRICTED ON 87TH STREET JUST OFF OF BLOOMINGTON AVENUE . I'M NOT SURE THE REASON THERE'S QUITE A BIT OF PARKING RESTRICTIONS AROUND THE CEDAR CREST AREA JUST BECAUSE OF SOME OF THE EVENTS THEY'VE
HAD THERE AND WRIGLEY HOLD BUT GENERALLY PARKING ON 87TH IS WIDE OPEN. IT'S UNRESTRICTED EXCELLENT. AND THEN A CONCERN WAS BROUGHT
UP ABOUT SOME CROSSWALKS OR OTHER KIND OF TRAFFIC CALMING MEASURES. CAN YOU TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MAYBE THE SWITCH FROM 86TH STREET FROM BEING A FOUR LANE ROAD TO A THREE LANE ROAD
AND THEN ANY OTHER TRAFFIC CALMING THAT MIGHT BE PROACTIVE OR REACTIVE FROM THIS PROJECT AND YEAH CHAIRMAN COMMISSIONERS AS I WAS
LISTENING TO THOSE COMMENTS AND THINKING THROUGH THIS I THINK WHAT WAS BEING ASKED FOR IS DO WE NEED CROSSWALKS ACROSS BLOOMINGTON AVENUE PERHAPS SIMILAR TO THE WAY
THIS IS A SIDE STREET CONTROLLED INTERSECTION ON 86TH STREET THE ONLY DIFFERENCE HERE GENERALLY WE DON'T PUT CROSSWALKS ON THOSE SIDE STREETS UNLESS THEY MEET SPECIFIC CRITERIA LIKE WITH
EVERY TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICE THEY HAVE TO MEET CERTAIN SPECIFIC CRITERIA AND WE WILL STUDY THAT FOR BOTH BLOOMINGTON AVENUE AND THEN 14TH ON THE OTHER SIDE OF CEDAR CREST TOO BECAUSE
THAT'S QUITE THE PEDESTRIAN ATTRACTION THERE, ESPECIALLY IN THE SUMMER WITH THE HOT SUMMER DAYS WE HAVE WE COULD HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE USING THAT CROSSING THAT WE NEED TO GO AHEAD AND PUT THOSE MARKED CROSSWALKS DOWN AND SO WE WILL
STUDY THAT AND SEE IF THERE'S A NEED FOR A CROSSWALK ACROSS THOSE SIDE STREETS. AND ANOTHER COMMENT SPEAKING ABOUT CROSSWALKS WAS THINKING ABOUT THE PARK. THERE IS A LARGE PART TO THE
NORTH THERE PEDESTRIANS THERE IS A SIGNAL THERE AT OLD CEDAR AVENUE FOR PEOPLE WISHING TO CROSS UP INTO WRIGHT'S LAKE PARK TO THE NORTH. THERE'S ALSO A CROSSWALK OVER
86TH STREET RIGHT AT CEDAR CREST PARK. THERE WAS YOU'RE MAYBE REMEMBER THERE USED TO BE AN OLD TRAFFIC SIGNAL THERE, A RED, YELLOW GREEN INDICATION THAT REACHED THE END OF ITS LIFE ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO. WE WORKED WITH THE PROPERTY
OWNER TO GO AHEAD AND THE PARKS DEPARTMENT TO GO AHEAD AND IMPROVE THAT CROSSWALK. NOW YOU'LL SEE THERE'S A NICE MEDIAN ISLAND WITH A PEDESTRIAN ACTIVATED FLASHING BEACONS. SO I THINK HOPEFULLY THAT
ADDRESSED ALL OF THE QUESTIONS IS IF THERE'S AREAS ALONG 86TH STREET WHERE WE FEEL LIKE THERE'S ENOUGH PEOPLE CROSSING TO MERIT MORE CROSSING IMPROVEMENTS, WE'RE HAPPY TO EVALUATE THOSE.
EXCELLENT. THANK YOU, MR. ROBERTS. I THINK AN AREA OF FOCUS THAT I WOULD LIKE TO TURN TO THE RECORD WOULD BE BLOOMINGTON AVENUE AND 86TH HEADING EAST
WEST ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE ROAD OVER TO CEDAR CREST PARK . I COULDN'T TELL IF YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT INTERSECTION OR 87TH IN BLOOMINGTON. SO ANYWAY IT DOESN'T. I JUST WANTED TO GET THAT OUT
THERE. A COMMENT WAS MADE DURING THE PUBLIC HEARING ABOUT TRIP COUNTS AND KIND OF COMMENTING ON YOUR PRESENTATION EARLIER.
YOU KNOW THE AVERAGE OF TEN TRIPS A DAY AND THEN HERE WE ARE AT LESS THAN 330 TRIPS. CAN YOU TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OTHER TRIPS THAT COULD HAPPEN THE MAILMAN A DELIVERY PERSON, THINGS ALONG THOSE
LINES AND HOW WE GOT TO THE 238 TRIPS, RIGHT. SO WHEN WHEN THOSE STUDIES ARE DONE WHEN WE STUDY A SPECIFIC USE LIKE TOWNHOMES THAT'S ALL
INCLUSIVE THE NUMBERS THAT WE USE AND SO WE COME UP WITH A RATE AND SO FOR A GIVEN TOWNHOME IT'LL GENERATE I THINK IN THIS CASE IT'S ABOUT SEVEN TRIPS PER DAY PER TOWNHOME THAT'S ALL INCLUSIVE
OF ANY TRIPS COMING IN AND GOING TO THAT DEVELOPMENT. SO THAT INCLUDES THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE THE AMAZON GUY, THE POSTAL SERVICE AND PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING IS WRAPPED UP INTO THAT NUMBER IN AND SO THAT'S HOW WE ARRIVE
AT THAT. AND THEN ONCE YOU HAVE THAT NUMBER IT'S JUST A SIMPLE MULTIPLICATION PROBLEM TO GO AHEAD AND MULTIPLY IT BY THE NUMBER OF UNITS AND THAT GETS YOU YOUR TOTAL TRIPS. AND SO IF YOU WANTED TO
OBVIOUSLY THE EASIEST WAY TO DO IT IF YOU WANT A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE YOU KNOW WE'RE TAKING OUT ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX IT'S ABOUT TEN TRIPS A DAY FOR A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE THAT'S
ABOUT 60 TRIPS. SO THAT'S THE MATH BEHIND IT. SO COMMISSION LISA THANK YOU. CHAIR I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS FOR STAFF OR THE APPLICANT BUT
I WANTED TO ADDRESS CONCERNS WELL, I WAS CURIOUS ABOUT IT TOO BUT ABOUT THE 88 COMPLIANCE ASPECT OF THE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT, IS IT THAT YOU KNOW THE FIRST LEVEL
WILL BE GEARED TOWARDS ONE BEDROOM OF THE UNIT BEING ADA COMPLIANT AND A BATHROOM OR IF YOU HAVE THE CITY OR APPLICANT LATER I GUESS COULD TOUCH ON THAT? THANK YOU.
YEAH. MR. JOHNSON CHAIR COMMISSIONER YOU SAY I WOULD DEFER TO THE PROJECT ARCHITECT TO SPEAK TO THAT IF THEY'RE WILLING. I MEAN IT'S THEIR DESIGN, IT'S THEIR BUILDING.
I WOULD SUGGEST THAT THEY SPEAK TO THAT IN TERMS OF THE DESIGNATION OF SOME UNITS AS ADA UNITS I'D LIKE TO INVITE THE APPLICANT BACK UP. YEAH, MY NAME MY HONG LIM AN
ARCHITECT FOR THIS PROJECT. SO YOUR QUESTION IS YEAH YEAH ON THE WE PROVIDE FOR AND WE PROVIDE FOR UNITS ADA COMPLIANCE THE FIRST MAIN
FLOOR IS GOING TO BE HAVE THE KITCHENETTE THE BATHROOM, AN ADDED BATHROOM AND THE LIVING ROOM AREA JUST LIKE A FUNCTION FOR THE SECOND FLOOR AND A THIRD FLOOR. SO WE'RE PROVIDING THE MAIN
FLOOR AS BASICALLY THE ADA COMPLIANCE WITH OF REQUIREMENTS AND A SECOND FLOOR THE THIRD FLOOR IS GOING TO BE LIKE TO UNIT APARTMENT HOUSES DEFINITELY THAT MAKES SENSE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. SOMETHING DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER COMMENTS COMMISSIONER COLEMAN UH, KIRK ROBERTS I HAVE A
QUESTION ABOUT SO IF THE RESIDENTS WERE TO SEE ISSUES WITH STREET PARKING I KNOW THAT THEY ARE PROVIDING DOUBLE WHAT IS REQUIRED INTO CITY
CODE FOR PARKING WHERE IT SAYS LIKE EACH UNIT WILL HAVE A TWO CAR GARAGE PLUS TWO SPOTS IN FRONT OF THE GARAGE PLUS THERE'S SPOTS FOR THE AREA. BUT IF THAT WERE TO OVERFLOW ONTO THE STREET THE THE
NEIGHBORS WOULD BE ABLE TO FILL OUT A PETITION TO HAVE A PARKING RESTRICTION. RIGHT. MR. CUNNINGHAM COMMISSIONER COLEMAN THEY COULD MOVE TO MODIFY ON STREET PARKING.
HOWEVER THOSE MODIFICATIONS APPLY TO EVERYBODY. AND SO ONE IMPORTANT DISTINCTION ABOUT PUBLIC PARKING IS IT'S IT'S PUBLIC. WE CAN'T RESERVE IT OR RESTRICT IT TO ANY CERTAIN GROUP.
IT HAS TO BE AVAILABLE FOR USE AND WE ONLY WANT TO DO THAT ONE THAT'S PERSISTENT. AND SO WHEN THE QUESTION COMES UP ABOUT WELL WHAT HAPPENS IF THEY HAVE PARTIES WELL WHAT HAPPENS NOW WHEN PEOPLE HAVE PARTIES YOU KNOW, A GRAD PARTY
OR A WEDDING OR WHATEVER PEOPLE DO IN NEIGHBORHOODS ON 87TH THEY PARK ON THE STREET. AND SO IF IN THIS TOWN HOMES IF IF THERE IS OVERFLOW THAT PARKING WOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR
THOSE PEOPLE. THAT'S A GOOD THING. IT'S HOW OUR COMMUNITY REMAINS VITAL IS HOW WE DO THE THINGS THAT YOU KNOW, MARK THOSE SIGNIFICANT MOMENTS IN LIFE WEDDINGS, FUNERALS, GRAD PARTIES AND ALL THE GOOD THINGS WE DO.
SO YEAH, YEAH I DEFINITELY AGREE LIKE THE STREET PARKING IT'S NOT THERE TO JUST LIKE LOOK PRETTY. IT COSTS A LOT TO THE TAXPAYER TO MAINTAIN ALL OF THAT ASPHALT SO I SEE THAT IT MAKES
SENSE FOR THERE TO FOR THE PUBLIC TO BE ABLE TO USE IT AND NOT REALLY BE YOU KNOW LIKE SHAMED INTO USING IT BUT OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE DEVELOPMENT HAS ENOUGH CAPACITY ON SITE.
SO MR. JOHNSON ANYTHING TO ADD ? CHAIR THANK YOU. THE ONLY THING I WAS GOING TO MENTION ABOUT OUR OFF STREET PARKING REQUIREMENTS AND YES THE PROJECT IS AN EXCEEDING OUR ZONING CODE REQUIREMENTS
AND I JUST WANTED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE CONCERNS ABOUT PARKING THAT I WAS HEARING AND ONE OF THE CHALLENGES THAT IS KIND OF FOLLOWS ALONG WITH OFF STREET PARKING IS THAT IF YOU OVERBUILD IT YOU'RE ADDING
UNNECESSARY IMPERVIOUS SURFACE WHICH DETRACTS FROM LANDSCAPING TREES AND IT'S MORE STORMWATER THAT HAS TO BE TREATED. SO I JUST WANTED TO EXPRESS THAT THERE'S NOT A PERFECT
RATIO OR SOLUTION TO ALWAYS GET THE PARKING COUNT RIGHT BUT THERE'S THERE'S KIND OF CHALLENGES ON BOTH SIDES OF THAT EQUATION. YOU BUILD TOO MUCH PARKING, IT'S BAD FOR STORMWATER MANAGEMENT, IT'S BAD FOR
LANDSCAPE, IT'S BAD FOR HEAT ISLAND ISSUES. YOU BUILD TOO LITTLE PARKING AND THEN YES THERE'S MORE OF THOSE NEIGHBORHOOD IMPACTS SO WE FEEL LIKE OUR CODE IS IN A GOOD SPOT. AND JUST TO REITERATE AGAIN THIS PROJECT IS FAR EXCEEDING
WHAT OUR CODE REQUIRES. COMMISSIONER LINNEY WHO'S GOING TO DO A FAIRLY DRAMATIC TYPE OF CHANGE IF THAT'S OKAY. COMMISSIONER ROB CHAIR OF COURSE I'M WONDERING OVER
HEARD SEVERAL COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC ABOUT COMPATIBILITY AND SORT OF THE RELATIONSHIP TO THE MISSING MIDDLE CONVERSATION AND WHILE I AM NOT I DON'T HAVE CONCERNS
ABOUT THE QUANTITY OF HOUSING I DO WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT WHAT THE CITY'S THOUGHTS ARE AS IT RELATES TO THE HEIGHT AND SIZE OF THESE UNITS BASED ON HOW WE HAVE DESCRIBED
THE MISSING MIDDLE AND KIND OF THAT THOUGHT PROCESS. YEAH. CHAIR COMMISSIONER LONNIE, THANK YOU FOR THAT QUESTION. SO I'LL TALK ABOUT KIND OF THE WHOLE CITY FIRST AND THEN I'LL
KIND OF DRILL DOWN INTO THIS AREA IF THAT'S OKAY. AND SO WHEN THE WHEN THE MISSING MIDDLE HOUSING ORDINANCE WAS BEING DISCUSSED IT WAS KIND OF IN TWO DIFFERENT CATEGORIES. WE WERE THINKING ABOUT IT IN AREAS GATED MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AND THEN AREAS
THAT WERE GUIDED LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AND SO THE CITY ADOPTED THE CITY COUNCIL A DIFFERENT HEIGHT STANDARDS FOR MISSING MIDDLE HOUSING TYPES AND DWELLINGS OF ANY TYPE
SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ARE SUBJECT TO THE SAME LIMITATIONS ON SITES THAT ARE ZONED R-1 IN AREAS THAT ARE GUIDED LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL SO I WANT TO MAKE THAT VERY IMPORTANT OR CLEAR DISTINCTION THAT THERE IS DIFFERENT HEIGHT
RULES FOR SITES THAT ARE GUARDED GATED I'M SORRY ZONES ARE ONE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL THAT LIMITATION IS 40FT IN BLOOMINGTON TODAY YOU CAN BUILD A SINGLE FAMILY HOME UP TO 40FT TALL.
IT IS LIMITED TO TWO STORIES THOUGH WE DO SEE A NUMBER OF HOUSES ON THE WEST SIDE OF TOWN THAT ARE AS TALL AS 40FT IN HEIGHT FOR SOME OF OUR SINGLE FAMILY HOMES.
SO I DO WANT TO REITERATE THAT AS FAR AS THIS SITE IS CONCERNED, THIS SITE IS BUT GATED MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL YOU KNOW, WHETHER OR NOT ALL THE RESIDENTS HAVE
BEEN AWARE OF THAT OR COGNIZANT OF THAT, YOU KNOW, LEAVING THAT CHALLENGE OR THAT DIFFICULTY ONE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT FOR SURE. BUT SINCE 1972 ALL THESE COMP PLAN CYCLES THIS SITE HAS BEEN PLANNED EFFECTIVELY FOR MEDIUM
DENSITY RESIDENTIAL USES IN BLOOMINGTON IF YOU RECALL A WORK PLAN PROJECT THAT WAS EARLIER THIS YEAR WE EVALUATED OUR HEIGHT STANDARDS. ONE OF THE CHANGES THAT HAPPENED ASSOCIATED WITH THAT
PROJECT IS THAT ALL SITES THAT WERE GUIDED MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL INCREASE THEIR HEIGHT ALLOWANCE UP TO 50FT IN HEIGHT EFFECTIVELY WE TOOK STORIES OUT OF THE REQUIREMENT
IF YOU RECALL AND SO THAT INCREASED THE ALLOWED STRUCTURE HEIGHT ON MEDIUM GUY EXCUSE ME SITES GATED MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL UP TO 50FT IN HEIGHT.
THE PROPOSED HEIGHT IS 41FT IN HEIGHT. IT IS THREE STORIES. IT DOES HAVE A FLAT ROOF DESIGN THAT DOES MITIGATE SOME OF THE VISUAL IMPACT OF THAT BUT THEY'RE BELOW THE 50FT OF HEIGHT.
THEY'RE SLIGHTLY EXCEEDING WHAT WOULD BE ALLOWED IN A SINGLE FAMILY HOME ON AN OUR ONE SITE. I THINK SOME OF THE OTHER ISSUES THAT PEOPLE EXPERIENCE WITH RESPECT TO CHARACTER IS THAT NEW CONSTRUCTION TENDS TO
BE TALLER STRUCTURES THAN OLDER HOMES THAT WERE BUILT IN THE 1950S AND 60S. THE MARKET FOR THE MOST PART DEMANDS TALLER CEILING CLEAR HEIGHTS. IT IS BUILDING TALLER HOMES
THAN IT WAS DURING THE AREA WHEN A LOT OF THESE NEIGHBORHOODS WERE CONSTRUCTED. AND SO WHETHER IT BE A SINGLE FAMILY HOME, A TOWNHOME, MULTIFAMILY WE'RE SEEING TALLER STRUCTURES ACROSS THE
BOARD BECAUSE THAT'S JUST SIMPLY WHAT NEW CONSTRUCTION DOES. I DON'T DISMISS CONCERNS ABOUT NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY OR WHAT THE IMPACTS OF THAT ARE. NEW CONSTRUCTION LOOKS DIFFERENT THAN AN OLDER HOMES
DO, THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT. BUT IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO REVIEW THESE PROJECTS ACCORDING TO THE WHAT THE CODES REQUIRE AND AGAIN RIGHT NOW THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT ON THIS
SITE WHAT WOULD BE IF IT WERE TO BE ZONED WOULD BE 50FT AND THEY'RE COMING IN AT 41FT FOR THESE STRUCTURES. GREAT. THANK YOU FOR THAT ANSWER.
ANY OTHER CLARIFICATION SIDE OF I'VE GOT A FEW MORE IF NO ONE ELSE HAS ANY ONE I JUST WANT TO PUT INTO THE RECORD A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC A CLASSIFIED A DAKOTA CASTING
DAY AS A COMMISSIONER HE IS A MEMBER OF STAFF JUST IF ANYONE NEEDS TO GET IN TOUCH WITH HIM AND THEN UH I'M NOT REALLY
SURE WHAT MEMBER OF STAFF THIS IS FOR BUT THE CONCERN OF SNOW STORAGE WAS BROUGHT UP AND SNOW STORAGE BEING STORED IN THE INFILTRATION POND. ANYBODY WANT TO RAISE THEIR
HAND FOR THAT ONE? MAYBE I WOULD PARDON ME, CHAIR I WOULD DEFER TO JULIE WITH RESPECT TO THE SPECIFIC OF THE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT POND COMPONENT OF IT.
BUT GENERALLY WE DO LIKE TO SEE LANDSCAPED AREAS WHERE SNOW CAN BE PUSHED GENERALLY ON A SITE PLAN. THAT'S ANOTHER REASON WHY LANDSCAPE YARD REQUIREMENTS EXIST, WHY SETBACKS EXIST AND
SO WE CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO SEE SNOW PILED UP THAT ENCROACHES INTO NEIGHBOR'S YARDS OR CREATES A DRAINAGE PROBLEM. SO THAT'S JUST KIND OF THE HIGH LEVEL.
I DON'T KNOW IF JULIE WANTS TO ADD ANYTHING ELSE. MS. LONG I'M APOLOGIZE I DIDN'T ASK YOU TO INTRODUCE YOURSELF TO THOSE WHO MIGHT NOT KNOW YOU IN CHAMBERS SORRY . I'M JULIE LONG. I'M THE CITY ENGINEER.
IT IS THE SNOW REMOVAL WILL BE THE PURVIEW OF THE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT SO I CAN JUST SPECULATE ON WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO. I CAN'T SAY FOR SURE BUT IT IS
HIGHLY LIKELY WITH THAT INFILTRATION BASIN DEPENDING ON WHERE THE LANDSCAPING IS THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO JOCKEY AROUND A LITTLE BIT THAT SOME OF THAT SNOW STORAGE WILL END UP THERE. THERE WILL ALSO AS WE KNOW
WE'RE IN MINNESOTA AND TIGHT ALLEYS LIKE TIGHT AREAS LIKE THIS LOOK OFTEN LIKE AN ALLEY. YOU WILL FIND EVERY SNOW PILE AND ANY AVAILABLE SPACE UNTIL
IT BECOMES TOO HIGH DEPENDING ON THE WINTER AND THEN THEY MAY HAVE TO HIRE SOMEONE TO TRUCK THAT SNOW OFF AND GO DISPOSE OF IT SOMEPLACE ELSE.
SIMILARLY WITH OUR STREETS WE WILL PLOW UP TO A POINT AND THEN OFTEN OUR CREWS WILL HAVE TO GO BACK AND LIKE KNOCK DOWN INTERSECT OPTIONS SO THAT
THERE IS A VIEW TRIANGLE SO THAT AS THE GENTLEMAN INDICATED IT CAN GET A LITTLE UNSAFE AND YOU HAVE TO CREEP OUT AND YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU'RE DOING IT AND IT
ALL DEPENDS ON HOW MUCH SNOW COMES AND WHEN IT COMES AND WHAT KIND OF JANUARY THAW WE HAVE SAID ANSWER THE QUESTION YES. THANK YOU. OKAY. COMMISSIONER ERIC COLEMAN
YEAH, I'D IT SEEMS LIKE AN INFILTRATION POND IS LIKE THE PERFECT PLACE TO PUT SNOW BECAUSE IT'S IF YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE MELT WATER MIGHT AS WELL PUT IT IN THE PLACE WHERE THE WATER IS SUPPOSED TO GO. RIGHT.
I MEAN IT'S SIX FEET DEEP SO IT IT WOULD BE WEIRD IF YOU COULDN'T PUT SNOW IN IT TO ME. BUT YOU KNOW, AT THE OR AT THE
AT THE RISK OF VOICING AN OPINION FROM THE CHAIRS POSITION IT IS YOU HAVE SOME ODD DAYS IN THE SPRING RAINS WHEN YOU STILL HAVE SNOW WHEN IT'S RAINING AND IT CAN BE A
PROBLEM BUT IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PROPERTY OWNER IS MY UNDERSTANDING TO MANAGE THEIR SNOW AND NOT PUT IT INTO THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY. ANY OTHER CLARIFICATIONS?
I THINK I GOT ALL MY NOTES. UH, DOES ANYONE HAVE ANYTHING ELSE RIGHT A GENERAL DISCUSSION ANY OPINIONS ON THIS APPLICATION?
I'M HAPPY. CHAIR YES. I COULD JUST ASK YOU MAYBE JUST FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PUBLIC HERE JUST REMIND THEM WHAT WE'RE DOING. SO THERE'S THREE APPLICATIONS HERE. FIRST IS TO REZONE THE PROPERTY FROM OUR ONE TO OUR
THREE. ANY PROPERTY OWNER CAN REQUEST REZONING OR THE CITY CAN INITIATE AS WELL. HERE THE PROPERTY OWNER THEMSELVES PETITION TO IS ON THE PROPERTY.
SO WHAT THE THE CLAIM PLANNING COMMISSION IS DOING IS MAKING A RECOMMENDATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL AND THEN THE CITY COUNCIL WILL HEAR IT NEXT MONTH THE SECOND APPROVAL AS A FINAL SITE AND BUILDING PLANS
AND THAT'S THE DEVELOPMENT ITSELF. SO IT'S 33 TOWNHOMES AND THEN ONE OUT LOT THAT'S THE INFILTRATION BAYS AND AGAIN IT'S A RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL AND CITY COUNCIL WILL TAKE UP FINAL ACTION NEXT
MONTH. THE THIRD THING IS THE PLAT SO RE PLANNING CHANGES OF THE LOT DIMENSIONS SO YOU HAVE SIX LOTS NOW YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE 34 LOTS SO 33 TOWNHOME LOTS AND ONE OUT LOT WHERE THE
INFILTRATION BASIN IS IF IT'S APPROVED. SO THAT'S ANOTHER RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL THEY'LL TAKE IT UP NEXT MONTH FOR FINAL ACTION. SO THREE APPROVALS ONE IS LEGISLATIVE TWO QUASI JUDICIAL
. SO WE HAVE FACTORS IN OUR CODE FOR FINAL SITE AND BUILDING PLANS. WE HAVE FACTORS FOR PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PLAT. WHAT WE'RE DOING IS TAKING ALL THE INFORMATION IN FROM THE
RECORD APPLYING IT TO THOSE FACTORS AND THEN YOU'RE MAKING A DECISION. SO IT'S KIND OF SETTING THE TABLE HERE. EXPLAIN WHAT THE PROCESS IS. THANK YOU. I ASK YOU YOU'RE WELCOME AND I DO APOLOGIZE.
I DID HAVE ONE NOTE I MISSED AND THIS ONE'S FOR MISS A DAY SETBACKS OF THE PRINCIPAL STRUCTURE ARE THEY DIFFERENT THAN A SINGLE FAMILY HOME OR
ARE THEY SIMILAR SHARE RIGHT OF WAY THEY ARE DIFFERENT. SO THE STRUCTURE SETBACKS FROM THE FRONT PROPERTY LINE IS 20FT AND THEY'RE SHOWING 20FT.
IT'S 20FT FROM THE REAR PROPERTY LINE AND TEN FEET FROM THE SIDES. SO THOSE ARE DIFFERENT THAN THE SINGLE FAMILY. MR. JOHNSON ANYTHING YEAH. JUST TO ADD TO THAT TO THE
RECORD, IS THAT I BELIEVE THE PER THE SITE PLAN WE HAVE NOW I'M AGAIN CODE REQUIRES A 20 FOOT SETBACK TO THE GENTLEMAN'S QUESTION ABOUT THE SETBACKS ALONG EAST 86TH STREET THEY ARE SHOWING A 20 FOOT SETBACK ALONG HIS 86TH
STREET. THE CURRENT SITE PLAN SHOWS A 30 FOOT SETBACK ALONG EAST 87TH STREET BACK ON THE SOUTH SIDE. AND JUST TO ADD A LITTLE BIT MORE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
AND AS FAR AS THE SITE DISTANCES ARE CONCERNED, THERE IS AS OF TODAY THIS IS A JUST MEASUREMENT BUT THERE'S 11FT BEHIND THE CURB OF PUBLIC RIGHT AWAY THAT'S KNOWN AS THE PUBLIC BOULEVARD. SO THESE STRUCTURES EFFECTIVELY WOULD BE AT LEAST
30 PLUS FEET AWAY FROM THE ROADWAY. HOWEVER, I BELIEVE THIS AND I'LL DEFER TO MY FRIENDS IN ENGINEERING AGAIN I BELIEVE THIS PROJECT INVOLVES FIVE FEET OF ADDITIONAL PUBLIC
RIGHT OF SEVEN FEET OF ADDITIONAL PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY DEDICATION. SO IT ACTUALLY THAT PUSHES THE FRONT PROPERTY LINE ALONG EAST 86TH STREET FURTHER TO THE SOUTH IF THAT MAKES SENSE.
THAT'S HOW THE CITY GETS ITS PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY IS THROUGH DEDICATION OF PLATS. AND SO THIS PROJECT INCLUDES SEVEN ADDITIONAL FEET OF PUBLIC RIGHT AWAY SO THAT MOVES THE SETBACK SEVEN FEET
ADDITIONALLY BACK SO I WOULD ESTIMATE ON THE BASIS OF THAT THESE STRUCTURES ARE PROBABLY 38, 36, 37FT BACK FROM THE ROADWAY.
I HOPE MY MATH IS CORRECT BUT I THINK IT IS COMMISSIONER COMMISSIONER LAND THANK YOU CHAIR AND COMMISSION PLANNING MANAGER JOHNSON CAN YOU REMIND US WHAT THE SETBACK IS FOR
SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IF IF A NEW SINGLE FAMILY HOME WAS BUILT ON THAT LOT? >> YEP CHAIR COMMERCIAL AND IT'S 30FT YEAH. SO IT EXCEEDS WHAT IT WOULD BE IF A NEW SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE
WAS IF IT'S REALLY OH THE CLOSEST. OKAY NEVER MIND. SCRATCH THAT SECOND YOU CAN PUT IT PRETTY FAR BACK IF IT'S A DEEP LOT LIKE THIS BUT IT EXCEEDS WHERE THE CLOSEST YOU
COULD PUT A NEW SINGLE FAMILY HOME WOULD BE. YEAH AND THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS AND THANK YOU FOR THAT SUMMARY OF OUR ACTIONS TONIGHT. ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY TUSKY ANY DISCUSSION ON THE
RECOMMENDATION AND PROPOSAL IN FRONT OF US COMMISSIONER YOU SIR. THANK YOU CHAIR. I WAS GOING TO SAY IT'S A PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD
APPLICATION BUT IT'S A LOT OF QUESTIONS WERE ASKED AND THE SEEMS TO ME ALL OF THE QUESTIONS WERE ANSWERED AND
WE'RE HERE TONIGHT TO VOTE ON A SPECIFIC WITH IN IN REGARDS AS APPLICATIONS WITH SPECIFIC PARAMETERS AND I THINK IT MEETS AND EXCEEDS ALL THOSE
PARAMETERS. THE ONLY THING I WOULD ASK I GUESS IS LIKE WHERE WERE VOLUNTEERS FOR THE ON THIS BOARD RIGHT. I THINK SOMEONE HAD A QUESTION
ABOUT THEY'RE NOT QUESTION BUT MENTIONED THAT YOU KNOW WE WORK FOR THE CITY ALL OF US HERE BUT I JUST WANTED TO I GUESS FOR THE FOR THE PUBLIC TO GET CLARIFICATION ON THAT.
YEAH. YES. TO TO CLARIFY, I MENTIONED THIS AT THE START OF THE MEETING BUT COMMISSIONER MUNSTER MYSELF COMMISSIONER YOU SIR COMMISSIONER LENNY AND COMMISSIONER COLEMAN ARE ALL VOLUNTEERS APPOINTED BY CITY
COUNCIL AND IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN JOINING OUR BOARD TYPICALLY APPLICATIONS OPEN IN MAY I THINK I DON'T KNOW IF I'VE MADE MY SPOT
MIGHT BE OPEN NEXT MAY. WITH THAT BEING SAID BACK TO THE TASK IN FRONT OF US ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION COMMISSIONERS?
COMMISSIONER COLEMAN YES. SO IT FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THE SECOND TO IF WE WERE TO APPROVE THE FIRST MOTION TO RECOMMEND REZONING THEN THE
OTHER TWO WOULD BE IN FULL COMPLIANCE AND WE WOULD WE WOULD BASICALLY HAVE TO SAY YES, RIGHT THERE WOULD BE NO BASIS TO REJECT IT. MR. TUSKY YEAH.
CHAIR COMMISSIONERS SO THERE'S FOR FINAL THE REZONING YES. THAT IS THE WHOLE THING'S CONTINGENT ON REZONING. SO YOUR RULES SAY THAT IF YOU ARE MAKE THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE CITY COUNCIL NOT
REZONING THE PROPERTY THEN YOU SHOULD ALSO RECOMMEND DENIAL FOR THE OTHER TWO. SO IT'S A CONDITION PRECEDENT I GUESS IS WHAT YOU MIGHT CALL IT OR WHATEVER. SO YEAH, YEAH SURE. ME BUT AS A FOLLOW UP TO THAT
QUESTION, IF WE RECOMMENDED YES TO THE FIRST, DOES THAT NECESSITATE THAT WE SAY YES TO THE SECOND TO OR IN THE AFFIRMATIVE IS IT NOT THE SAME
CASE CHAIR COMMISSIONER LAND THAT NO YOU DON'T SO YOU COULD THE FACTORS ARE IN THE FINAL CERTAIN BUILDING PLANS AND THEN THE THERE'S ALSO FACTORS FOR APPROVAL OF THE PLAT. SO THOSE ARE WHAT YOU'RE STACKING UP THE FACTS AGAINST ARE THOSE FACTORS SO IF YOU
CAN MAKE ALL OF THOSE FINDINGS AND EACH FOR EACH OF THOSE APPROVALS THEN YOU WOULD RECOMMEND THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVE IT BUT YOU HAVE TO MAKE THOSE THOSE FINDINGS RIGHT? YOU'D HAVE TO CITE A SPECIFIC THING THAT WE DISAGREE WITH
STAFF ON. IT'S LIKE OH THIS SETBACK ISN'T CORRECT, RIGHT? THAT WOULD BE A YES. THANK YOU COMMISSIONER COLEMAN AND MR. TUSK, JUST SO THAT WE'RE FULLY CLEAR ON THE ACTION TONIGHT, ALL OF THESE
RECOMMENDATIONS THE THE REZONING THE FINAL SITE AND BUILDING PLANS AND THE RE PLAT ARE ALL RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL CHAIR COMMISSIONERS.
THAT'S CORRECT. YOU'RE MAKING A RECOMMENDATION AND THEN FOR THE REZONING I THINK THE PLANNING MANAGER CONFIRMED THIS BUT I THINK WE'RE NOTICE EVERYTHING ONCE AGAIN PRIOR TO THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING SO EVERYONE
WILL GET THEIR BE A PUBLISHED NOTICE AS WELL AS A MAILED NOTICE OF THE CITY COUNCIL DATE. YOU'LL PROBABLY ANNOUNCE IT AT THE END OF THE MEETING AS WELL SO THEY'LL GET NOTICE. YEAH, THAT'S CORRECT.
THANK YOU MR. TUSK AND MR. JOHNSON. ANY OTHER OPINIONS OR THOUGHTS ON THE RECOMMENDATION IN FRONT OF US?
COMMISSIONER LINNEY YEAH, I'M HAPPY TO START THE CONVERSATION. I THINK FIRST OFF I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL OF THE INPUT FROM THE NEIGHBORS AND THE COMMUNITY. I THINK THIS IS INCREDIBLY,
INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT CONVERSATION TO HAVE AND I AM INCREDIBLY SYMPATHETIC TO THE IMPACT THIS IS GOING TO HAVE ON YOU.
HAVING SAID THAT, I THINK I'VE BEEN PRETTY VOCAL IN MY OPINIONS ON THE COMMISSION THAT WE DO REALLY NEED TO BE WORKING ON INCREASING THE HOUSING DENSITY.
I HAVE ACTUALLY MADE THOSE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD I ALSO LIVE IN WHICH IS ONE OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS IT'S ALSO UNDER CONSIDERATION FOR THIS AND I
THINK THAT THE FINDINGS FROM STAFF HAVE CONVINCED ME THAT THIS IS WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN. I WILL SAY THIS I WOULD ENCOURAGE THE DEVELOPER AS YOU
MOVE FORWARD TO DO A MUCH BETTER JOB OF COMMUNICATING WITH THE NEIGHBORS. I THINK THAT THAT IS A REAL CONCERN AS I'VE HEARD HOW THIS HAS ALL UNFOLDED AND I THINK
THAT TO KEEP THE NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBLE THAT'S GOING TO BE A REALLY IMPORTANT DYNAMIC MOVING FORWARD. BUT I THINK AS OF RIGHT NOW I THINK THAT WHAT I SEE LAID OUT HERE THE FINDINGS HAVE BEEN
MET. COMMISSIONER COLEMAN YEAH. THANK YOU CHAIR. I AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER AND WHEN I, I LIVE IN A THREE
STORY APARTMENT BUILDING THAT LOOKS FAIRLY SIMILAR TO THESE TOWNHOMES AND AND THERE ARE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND ALSO DUPLEXES
AND MULTIPLEXES AND OTHER TOWNHOMES AND REALLY THE THE MIDDLE HOUSING IS BUILT AROUND LIKE HOW CAN WE DO LOW DENSITY THAT IS BETTER FOR THE CITY,
THAT IS BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND IS THE MOST COMPATIBLE WITH EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY. AND ALTHOUGH I HAVE MY QUALMS ABOUT YOU KNOW WHICH USE
SHOULD BE IN WHICH CATEGORY LIKE DO WE REALLY NEED AN R3I FEEL LIKE THERE MOST OF THAT COULD BE ACHIEVED THROUGH OUR FOUR YOU KNOW THAT KIND OF STUFF BUT I DO THINK THAT
LIKE TOWNHOMES AND OTHER MEETING MIDDLE HOUSING TYPES ARE REALLY LIKE THEY SEEM TO BE WHAT THE FUTURE IS GOING TO BE FOR A LOW DENSITY AND I ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU CONSIDER
THAT THIS IS SUCH A UNIQUE SPOT LIKE THERE'S BASICALLY NOWHERE ELSE IN THE CITY OF BLOOMINGTON THAT HAS LOTS THIS DEEP THAT HAS A THAT YOU CAN MAKE A THROUGH LOT IT
REALLY SEEMS LIKE IT'S A AN INTERESTING OPPORTUNITY TO DO SOMETHING THAT IS A LITTLE BIT MORE DENSE THAT WILL HAVE MORE HOMES FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE IN BLOOMINGTON OBVIOUSLY LIKE
THOUGH I WOULD LOVE THERE TO BE MORE SIDEWALKS. ABSOLUTELY. I I LIVED ON A STREET WHERE I HAD TO WALK TO THE BUS STOP FOR SCHOOL EVERY DAY WHERE THERE WAS NO SIDEWALK LIKE A FULL BLOCK THAT I WAS JUST
WALKING THE STREET AND IT DURING THE WINTER BUT LIKE PEOPLE GET BY AND I WOULD LOVE FOR US TO BE ABLE TO YOU KNOW, BRING IN THE REVENUE TO BE ABLE TO BUILD MORE SIDEWALKS
SO THAT PEOPLE CAN BE SAFER WALKING THE STREET AND I THINK THAT I DON'T SEE ANYTHING IN THIS APPLICATION THAT IS LIKE A BIG RED FLAG FOR ME TO SAY THAT THIS WILL BE
INCOMPLETE. WELL WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD OBVIOUSLY YOU LOOK AT A RENDER AND IT LOOKS KIND OF WEIRD AND OFF RIGHT? LIKE IT'S GOING TO LOOK DIFFERENT IN REAL LIFE.
YOU KNOW ONCE THE TREES ARE FULLY GROWN AND I THINK THAT A LOT OF THINGS WE JUST DON'T REALLY THINK ABOUT RIGHT LIKE IF IF THIS WAS HERE SINCE THE 70S PROBABLY PEOPLE WOULDN'T
EVEN NOTICE IT RIGHT IT WHENEVER SOMETHING'S NEW IT IT REALLY STICKS IN YOUR MIND BUT ONCE YOU GET USED TO IT I THINK THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE WILL LOVE. SO THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. I'LL LET MY $0.02 IN YOU KNOW WE'RE WE'RE WE'RE A VOLUNTEER COMMISSION WITH THE CITY WE'RE HERE TO YOU KNOW INTERPRET ORDINANCES CODE AND THE
FINDINGS OF FACT FROM AN APPLICATION AND I DON'T SEE ANYTHING ON THIS APPLICATION THAT WOULD PREVENT ME FROM AGREEING WITH THE RECOMMENDATION OF STAFF.
THAT BEING SAID, YOU KNOW, IS THIS THE PERFECT DEVELOPMENT? I DON'T BELIEVE SO BUT I DON'T THINK THAT PERFECT THE PURSUIT OF PERFECT SHOULD GET IN THE WAY OF GOOD ENOUGH AND I'M
ALSO IN FAVOR OF THIS APPLICATION. COMMISSIONER MUNSTER THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. >> I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SORT OF ECHO THE SENTIMENTS
OF COMMISSIONER COLEMAN THAT THIS THESE TYPES OF DEVELOPMENTS ARE WHERE THE COMMUNITY SEEMS TO BE GOING IN THE FUTURE. THE CITY HAS BUILT OUT HOUSING NEEDS ACROSS THE ENTIRE METRO
AREA ARE HIGH. WE HAVE TO FIND CREATIVE WAYS TO TO SOLVE THAT. YOU KNOW THAT THAT'S AND THE FINDINGS THAT WE ARE REQUIRED TO MAKE I BELIEVE ARE MADE
IN THIS SITUATION AND I DO SUPPORT THIS PROPOSAL AS WELL . >> THANK YOU. IF THERE'S NO FURTHER DISCUSSION AND I WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

CHAIR AND I WOULD REITERATE TO THE PUBLIC THAT WE'LL CONTINUE TO ACCEPT WRITTEN TESTIMONY AS PART OF THIS CASE. IT CAN BE ADDED TO THE PACKET AND FOR CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERATION IN ADDITION TO
ANY PUBLISHED PUBLIC HEARINGS . THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. WE WILL MOVE ALONG TO ITEM THREE WHICH IS A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A CANNABIS
MANUFACTURING FACILITY AT 300 WEST 83RD STREET. MISS O'DAY, I BELIEVE YOU ALSO HAVE THE STAFF REPORT FOR THIS ONE. >> I DO. THANK YOU, CHAIR AND COMMISSIONERS, THIS IS A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A
CANNABIS MANUFACTURING FACILITY LOCATED AT 300 WEST 83RD STREET. THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS AT 300 WEST 83RD STREET.
SURROUNDING LAND USES INCLUDE A MIX OF SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AND INDUSTRIAL. IT IS ZONED A THREE AND A CANNABIS MANUFACTURING
FACILITY IS A CONDITIONAL USE IN THIS ZONING DISTRICT SO THE FLOOR PLAN CONSISTS OF MULTIPLE DIFFERENT AREAS AND OPERATED BY A SEPARATE ENTITY.
SCUSE ME. SO THE FIRST IS A THC MANUFACTURING AREA EXCUSE ME OCCUPIED BY THE APPLICANT INCLUDING A KITCHEN INVENTORY PACKING, SHIPPING AND THE LIKE
AND THEN THERE'S A HEMP STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION AREA THAT'S OCCUPIED BY A SEPARATE ENTITY USED FOR WAREHOUSING AND PREPACKAGED HEMP EDIBLE PRODUCTS AND THEN A TRANSPORT
AREA THAT'S OCCUPIED BY A THIRD ENTITY USED FOR DISPATCH AND OTHER ADMIN DUTIES. AND THE LAST PART IS THE LAST SPACE IS SHARED COMMON SPACE AREA THAT'S ACCESSIBLE TO ALL
EMPLOYEES THAT INCLUDES BATHROOMS, BREAK ROOMS AND OFFICE SPACE TOTAL BUILDING AREA IS 19,600FT SO A LITTLE BIT OF CODE ANALYSIS.
THE OVERALL PARKING SUPPLY IS COMPLIANT. WHAT THEY'RE SHOWING ON SITE PLANS IS TO A NEW ADA STALLS THAT ARE PROPOSED NEAR THE BUILDING ENTRANCE.
JUST TO NOTE THAT THAT DOES REQUIRE ADMINISTRATIVE FINAL SITE BUILDING PLAN TO REVIEW THAT AS WELL AS A PARKING LOT PERMIT APPROVAL AS FAR AS AUTO MEDIATION GOES, THE TENANT
LOCATION IS MORE THAN 150FT AWAY FROM THE NEAREST WALL OF PROTECTED RESIDENTIAL USE AND ALSO THIS FACILITY DOES NOT EMIT ANY ODOR. SO AUTOMATIC MITIGATION AND IS
NOT REQUIRED IN THIS INSTANCE AS FAR AS LANDSCAPING GOES, WHAT THEY'RE IDENTIFYING IS EIGHT TREES AND 38 SHRUBS LOCATED AROUND THE SITE. THEY HAVE PROVIDED A LANDSCAPE
PLAN. AND THEN LASTLY LIGHTING. JUST SOME MINOR REVISIONS NEEDED THERE TO MEET OUR CURRENT REQUIREMENTS. THERE ARE SOME WILD PARKS ON SITE THAT JUST NEED SOME
REPLACEMENT OF FIXTURES. SO WITH THAT A PRETTY SHORT PRESENTATION A FINAL DECISION BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION SUBJECT TO AN AEAL. I HAVE THE RECOMMENDATION I DON'T KNOW IF THE APPLICANT IS
ONLINE OR IN PERSON BUT HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE. >> THANK YOU MR. DE ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF?
I'VE GOT ONE REALLY QUICK ONE. LIKE WITH ALL OF THEIR CANNABIS MANUFACTURING FACILITIES THAT WE'VE BEEN DISCUSSING OVER THE LAST SIX MONTHS, THEY'RE BEHOLDEN TO
BOTH OUR CITY CODE AND THEN ALSO ANY GUIDELINES OR ORDINANCES PUT DOWN BY THE OFFICE OF CANNABIS MANAGEMENT. IS THAT CORRECT? THAT'S CORRECT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. OKAY.
IS THE APPLICANT IN CHAMBERS OR ONLINE? WE HAVE A NUMBER ONLINE. I AM UNSURE IF IT'S THE APPLICANT OR NOT. I BELIEVE THEY HAVE THEIR HAND UP.
OH I SEE THAT PERSON IS CALLING IN FROM THEIR PHONE. IF YOU HAD YOUR HAND UP YOU ARE ABLE TO BE UNMUTED NOW OR
YOU CAN. WE'RE WORKING ON. HANG OUT WITH US HERE FOR JUST A MOMENT BUT OUTSIDE OH, THEY UPDATED IT ALL RIGHT.
WHOEVER IS CALLING IN YOU, YOUR MICROPHONE SHOULD BE GREEN. HELLO, KAREN COMMISSION MY NAME IS SARAH ADDY AND I AM
DEPUTY GENERAL COUNSEL FOR THE APPLICANT 14,444 CONFECTION AND I'M HERE TODAY PARTICIPATING REMOTELY ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT AND I AM HERE TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. >> THANK YOU MS. ANY ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? COMMISSIONER COLEMAN YEAH. THANK YOU. SO I'M CURIOUS HOW WITH A
KITCHEN THERE IS NO ODOR ANTICIPATED TO BE PRODUCED BY THIS BECAUSE LIKE I'M NOT I'M I'M NOT A WEED PERSON SO IF THIS IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING
THAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND BUT IT SEEMS LIKE EVEN IF LIKE YOU'RE BRINGING IN MAYBE IT'S NOT FLOWER RIGHT BECAUSE LIKE IF YOU'RE BRINGING IT IN THERE WOULD STILL BE SOME KIND OF ODOR RIGHT?
I GET THAT IT'S NOT WITHIN THE DISTANCE THAT WE NECESSARILY REQUIRE IT BUT I WAS JUST CURIOUS ABOUT WHY THERE WOULD NOT BE ANY ODOR AT ALL.
THAT IS A WONDERFUL QUESTION AND YOU ARE CORRECT THERE CAN TYPICALLY BE AN ODOR ASSOCIATED WITH CANNABIS AND HOWEVER, THIS BUSINESS OPERATION IS ESSENTIALLY A
CONFECTIONARY OR A CANDY COMPANY WITH A SPECIAL INGREDIENT AND HOW WE LIKE TO DESCRIBE IT IN OUR PRODUCTION RELIES ON KETTLES RATHER THAN OPEN FLAME COOKING AND WE ARE
JUST PRODUCING THE EDIBLES USING A CANNABIS OIL AND THE OIL DOES NOT SMELL OUTSIDE OF A BUILDING AND WE'RE JUST USING KETTLES INSIDE OUR
FACILITY AND WE ALSO USE INTERNAL AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT AND JUST THROUGH PORTABLE AIR SCRUBBERS AND FAMS FOR OUR EMPLOYEES THAT STARTED BACK IN COVID TO
IMPROVE INDOOR AIR QUALITY BUT NO ACTUAL ODORS OUTSIDE OF THE FACILITY. AND IF YOU'RE GOING TO SMELL ANYTHING IT WILL NOT I CAN BE THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
I GUESS IT'S NOT IT'S NOT LIKE A BROWNIE. IT'S THAT'S THAT'S THE EXTENT OF MY KNOWLEDGE AND IT IS THROUGH AS MOSES FROM CULTURE SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> THANK YOU FOR YOUR QUESTION. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT SEEING OR SEEING NONE.
