UH, A QUICK STATEMENT, CITIZENS GIVEN TIME TO SPEAK DURING THE MEETING, WHETHER GENERAL COMMENTS OR COMMENTS ON SPECIFIC AGENDA ITEMS MAY DO SO ONLY IF REGISTERED BY COMPLETING A CITIZEN'S COMMENT REQUEST FORM AND SUBMITTING THE FORM TO THE CLERK OF COUNSEL PRIOR TO THE START OF THE MEETING.

AND NEXT IS NUMBER SEVEN, CITIZENS

[7. Citizens Comments]

COMMENTS.

WE HAVE TWO CITIZEN CITIZEN COMMENTS.

UM, BEFORE WE START,

[00:05:01]

CITIZEN COMMENTS ARE LIMITED TO NO MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES PER PERSON AND ARE LIMITED TO THE SUBJECT.

UNDER DISCUSSION IS SPEAKING ON AN AGENDA ITEM? THIS TIME IS FOR COMMENTS.

THE STATEMENTS ONLY AND IS NOT A FORMAT FOR QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

AND NUMBER ONE, AT FIRST UP, I HAVE JENNIFER CORCORAN.

GOOD EVENING.

I'M JENNIFER CORCORAN, AND I HAVE MY SON MATTHEW HILTON, UH, WITH ME AND SOME FAMILY MEMBERS AS WELL.

I JUST, WE WOULD, WE WANTED TO COME BACK AND JUST KIND OF GIVE AN UPDATE.

WE SPOKE TO YOU ALL IN MARCH, UM, ABOUT THE NEED FOR UNIVERSAL CHANGING TABLES SO THAT, UM, OVER 300,000 PEOPLE IN OHIO COULD HAVE BATHROOM ACCESS WHEN THEY LEAVE THEIR HOMES.

AND I JUST WANTED TO UPDATE YOU A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE, UM, I CAME AND I SPOKE TO MY COUNCIL IN HOPES THAT I WOULD GET SOME ASSISTANCE WITH THIS.

AND WE HAVE, AND WE DEEPLY APPRECIATE THIS.

UM, I, YOU KNOW, I WORK WITH FOLKS ACROSS THE STATE.

I WORK WITH FOLKS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

I RUN THE OHIO, UH, CHAPTER FOR CHANGING SPACES, WHICH HAS 24 STATES WITHIN OUR CAMPAIGN.

AND WHEN I SPEAK TO THE OTHER STATES AND TO THE OTHER, UH, FOLKS IN OHIO, I TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT IN MY OWN HOMETOWN, I BROUGHT INFORMATION TO YOU.

YOU LISTENED.

AND WE ARE MAKING CHANGES.

WE SEE THAT THE ROSE MUSIC CENTER IS CURRENTLY PUTTING IN A TABLE.

WE, WE HAVE OUR HUBER LIBRARY.

UM, IT'S BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION.

THE CIVIC SENIOR CENTER WILL HAVE ONE.

UM, AND THEN WE'VE GOT OTHERS THAT ARE ASKING ABOUT THEM.

I ALSO WANTED TO UPDATE YOU A LITTLE BIT THAT, UM, WE DID GO TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, UH, LAST MONTH TO HELP THOSE FOLKS UNDERSTAND THE NEED AS WELL.

UM, AND, AND AS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS, WE'RE ALSO TALKING ABOUT, UM, LIFTS, UM, CEILING TRACKS.

BECAUSE WHAT I'M FINDING, ANOTHER JOB THAT I HAVE IS THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY BOARD OF DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY SERVICES.

AND I'M WORKING WITH A WHOLE LOT OF FOLKS WHO ARE INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES WHO ARE ADVOCATING FOR THESE TABLES WITH US, BUT DON'T HAVE SOMEBODY WHO CAN LIFT THEM.

SO IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE SAFE, THE TRUE REALITY IS THAT WE ALSO NEED THE LIFTS.

SO WHEN WE WENT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION, WE TALKED ABOUT THAT.

WE ALSO ARE BRINGING IT TO THE ATTENTION BECAUSE WE KNOW BUCKY'S IS HOPEFULLY COMING TO HUBER HEIGHTS.

AND, UM, WITH THAT BEING SAID, WE ARE REQUESTING FOR A TABLE AND A LIFT TO BE INCLUDED IN BUCKY'S.

AND I KNOW THAT INFORMATION HAS BEEN SHARED WITH THE FOLKS AND THAT THEY'RE LISTENING AND THEY'RE WORKING WITH US, AND WE'RE VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THAT.

UM, IT'S ALSO BEEN CALLED TO MY ATTENTION THAT WAWA HAS ACTUALLY ASKED FOR OUR DOCUMENTS, AND I CAN SAY, AND OVER 10 YEARS OF DOING THIS, THAT'S THE FIRST TIME THAT'S EVER HAPPENED.

SO WE REALLY APPRECIATE THIS.

SO, UM, IT, IT APPEARS TO ME THAT HUBER IS BECOMING, UM, A LEADER IN THIS AREA.

AND I, YOU KNOW, I, AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, I WOULD BE VERY PROUD TO BE A LEADER AND AN AREA IN WHICH WE ARE LETTING CITIZENS KNOW THEY'RE WORTH SOMETHING, THAT THEY'RE WORTH BEING IN OUR COMMUNITY, THEIR COMMUNITIES LISTENING, AND WE'RE GOING TO BRING THEM IN WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT A POSSIBILITY OF FIVE TABLES.

UM, JUST IN HUBER HEIGHTS, WE'RE IN THE LEAD.

AND, AND I SHARE THIS WITH ALL OF MY ADVOCATES IN THE OTHER STATES.

I SHARE IT ACROSS, ACROSS, UM, OUR STATE.

SO I THANK YOU.

UM, I URGE YOU TO CONTINUE TO USE US AS A RESOURCE.

THIS IS KIND OF NEW AREA, AND WITH, WITH THAT, YOU HAVE TO HAVE EXPERIENCE.

RECENTLY I HELPED, UM, I PARK WRITE A, A GRANT, AND THEY GOT THE GRANT, AND THEN THEY DID THEIR PROJECT, BUT THEY JUST WENT AND DID IT.

NOW I GO BACK AND I SEE IT, AND THEY'VE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY AND A LOT OF TIME, AND IT DOESN'T WORK.

SO NOW I'M, NOW I'M HELPING THEM TRY TO FIX IT.

AND I DON'T WANNA SEE ANYBODY DO THAT BECAUSE IT, YOU NEED EXPERIENCE AND YOU NEED THE RESOURCES.

SO PLEASE CONTINUE TO SHARE THE, THE GOOD NEWS.

UM, PLEASE CONTINUE TO KEEP ME IN THE LOOP SO THAT I CAN HELP.

I FIND ALL THE RESOURCES THAT ARE NEEDED.

THANKS, JENNIFER.

GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, TO THE CITIZENS OF HUBER HEIGHTS, PLEASE PAY COAST ATTENTION TO THE ACTIONS OF YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS.

AND NEXT, NEXT UP WE HAVE MR. JEFF MORFORD.

GOOD EVENING.

JEFF MORFORD IN MIAMI COUNTY, BETHEL TOWNSHIP TO THE PRESIDENT HUBER HEIGHTS.

CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS TO THE PAST AND FUTURE HUBER HEIGHTS, CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS.

[00:10:01]

YOUR COMMUNITY AT THE DIRECTION OF THIS COUNCIL AND YOUR MAYOR, HAVE BEEN BLINDED BY AMBITION, THINKING, GROWTH, EXPANSION, ANNEXATION, TAXATION, REVENUE ARE ABOVE ALL WITH LITTLE REGARD TO HEALTH, WELLBEING, PLANNING, TRAFFIC, SCHOOL STUDENTS, AND YOUR NEIGHBORS IN BETHEL CITIZENS, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS.

TELL THEM TO BE RESPONSIBLE.

TELL THEM YOU ARE BIG ENOUGH.

TELL THEM THE TRAFFIC IS BAD ENOUGH.

TELL THEM YOU DON'T NEED ANY MORE FAST FOOD RESTAURANTS.

TELL THEM YOU DON'T NEED ANY MORE NATIONAL MEGA GAS STATIONS.

TELL THEM YOU WANT THEM TO LIVE WITHIN YOUR MEANS.

TELL THEM NOT TO ALLOW A DEVELOPER TO INSTIGATE THE ANNEXATION OF ANOTHER 300 ACRES OF MIAMI COUNTY BETHEL TOWNSHIP LAND, AND ALLOW THE BUILDING OF ANOTHER THOUSAND HIGH DENSITY HOUSES ALLOWING THE STUDENTS TO GO TO BETHEL, NOT INTO HUBER.

THE WATER AND SEWAGE TAKEN CARE OF BY MIAMI COUNTY, NOT HUBER.

WHAT HAPPENED TO BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF? WHAT HAPPENED TO BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOR? WHAT HAPPENED TO BE, WHAT HAPPENED TO LIVING WITHIN YOUR MEANS? LAST CITY COUNCIL MEETING, YOUR CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS VOTED ON SIX ORDINANCES FOR THE SIX ORDINANCES WERE TIED FOUR TO FOUR WITH THE TIE BEING DECIDED BY THE MAYOR'S YES VOTE.

STARTING THE PROCESS OF ISSUING MUNICIPAL BONDS IN THE TOTAL OF OVER $27 MILLION.

THESE BONDS WILL EVENTUALLY COME DUE.

PLUS INTEREST, WHICH THE CITY WILL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, NOT THE INDIVIDUAL COUNCIL MEMBERS.

IT'S ALWAYS EASY TO SPEND OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY.

WHAT HAPPENED TO LIVE WITHIN YOUR FINANCIAL MEANS AND SPEND ONLY WHAT YOU HAVE? THIS TYPE OF MANEUVERING AND MANIPULATION JUST PERPETRATES.

THE PERPETUATES THE, THE SYSTEM.

WE HAVE TO EXPAND, WE HAVE TO DEVELOP, WE HAVE TO GROW JUST TO KEEP UP WITH OUR OBLIGATIONS FROM PAST DECISIONS AND VOTES.

IF WE DON'T CONTINUE, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PAY OUR DEBTS.

IT'S A VICIOUS CYCLE, WHICH YOU'LL BE CAUGHT UP IN, UNABLE TO GET OUT.

A DOWNWARD SPIN, PLEASE PUT ON THE BRAKES.

APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE.

BE GOOD NEIGHBORS.

LIVE WITHIN A BUDGET, NOT OUTSIDE.

AS ALWAYS, I'LL LEAVE YOU WITH A GOLDEN RULE.

DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

AND NEXT WOULD CALL ON CITY STAFF TO MAKE THEIR INITIAL PRESENTATION.

AARON, HOW ARE YOU SIR? I'M, I'M WELL, MAYOR.

UH, GOOD EVENING, MAYOR.

UH, MEMBERS OF COUNCIL, AARON RELL.

UH, SO THE SITE IN QUESTION IS 15 AND A HALF ACRES, CURRENTLY ZONED PLAN MIXED USE.

IT ALSO HAS THE BRANT PIKE, UH, ZONING OVERLAY DISTRICT.

UM, IT IS VACANT LAND, UH, TO THE WEST IS, UH, ZONED.

R FOUR, A SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD.

TO THE NORTH IS THE HUBER CENTER, WHICH IS ZONED, UH, PLAN COMMERCIAL, UH, TO THE EAST IS PRIMARILY MIXED USE.

AND THEN THE SOUTH IS PLAN PUBLIC AS WELL AS B THREE.

UH, AS STATED, IT, UH, THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING BASIC PLAN, BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPROVAL FOR A 288 UNIT MARKET RATE COMMUNITY.

SO THIS IS THE SITE OUTLINED IN RED.

UM, THE HUBER, UH, BRANCH LIBRARY WAS RECENTLY CONSTRUCTED TO THE EAST OF THIS.

THE CR DAYTON IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION OR UNDER RENOVATION.

UH, NOW, UM, IT IS PART OF THE BRANCH PIKE OVERLAY DISTRICT THAT WAS APPROVED IN 2017.

UH, WE, WE'VE MADE, UM, STRIDES IN REDEVELOPING, UH, THE, THE FORMER MION MEADOWS SHOPPING CENTER.

THIS IS ANOTHER COMPONENT OF THAT, UH, REDEVELOPMENT PLAN.

UH, JUST KIND OF TO LET YOU KNOW WHERE WE ARE.

UM, THIS IS, UH, THE SITE PLAN, UH, TO THE WEST, UM, OR THE LEFT ON, ON THIS, UH, STITCH TOGETHER, UH, WITH THE LIBRARY SITE, AS WELL AS THE INITIAL SITE PLAN FOR THE SENIOR CENTER.

YOU CAN SEE IN THE MIDDLE, UH, IS THE, UH, THE FUTURE PARK OR KINDA CENTRAL LIVING ROOM, UH, POTEN, UH, POTENTIAL PUBLIC GATHERING SPACE.

UH, TO THE NORTH IS VACANT LAND OWNED BY A PREMIER.

THAT'S ABOUT FIVE AND A HALF ACRES THAT, OR EXCUSE ME, FOUR AND A HALF ACRES THAT COULD BE REDEVELOPED.

UH, AND THEN NORTH OF THAT, MAKING THAT CONNECTION AS WE REDEVELOP, HEADING NORTH IS ANOTHER 22 AND A HALF ACRES THAT COULD POTENTIALLY BE REDEVELOPED AS PART OF THE, UH, HUBER CENTER.

SO ALL OF THESE KIND OF MESHED TOGETHER TO START REDEVELOPING THE, THE SOUTH CENTER PART OF, OF THE CITY.

THIS WAS THE ORIGINAL SITE PLAN THAT WAS SUBMITTED TO PLANNING COMMISSION.

THERE'S BEEN SIGNIFICANT, UH, UH, REVISIONS, UH, BASED ON THE EXTENSIVE PUBLIC, UH, INPUT THAT THEY GATHERED WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

UH, SO THIS, THE NEW SITE PLAN OVERLAID HERE REALLY BRINGS, EFFECTIVELY BRINGS THE, THE PRODUCT TO THE, UH, INCREASES THE BUFFER BETWEEN THE, THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE WEST, SHIFTS THE APARTMENTS, UH, NEARLY A HUNDRED FEET TO THE EAST, UH, HELPS TO FRAME BETTER THAT, UH, ALONG THE NEW PUBLIC RIGHT AWAY AND THE POTENTIAL, UM, PARK LAND THAT'S THERE.

SO, LIKE I SAID, THE, THE CHANGES TO THE SITE PLAN INCREASED THE REAR SETBACK FROM 25 FEET TO NEARLY A HUNDRED FEET, DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU ARE, BETWEEN 80 AND A HUNDRED FEET.

IT INCREASED THE PARKING FROM 550, FROM 515 TO 550 SPACES.

WE HAVE BETTER BUILDING ORIENTATION ALONG THE NEW PUBLIC RIGHT OF AWAY.

UM, BUT THERE'S BEEN NO CHANGES TO THE DENSITY OR CONNECTIONS TO THAT RIGHT OF AWAY.

UM, THE APPLICANT ALSO HAS A PRESENTATION, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT.

UH, THEY HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER, UH, RENDERINGS AND ELEVATIONS THAN, THAN I HAVE WITH THEIR, BUT THE REASON I BRING THIS UP IS THE BRANT PIKE OVERLAY DISTRICT HAS A HEIGHT MAXIMUM.

UH, AND IT'S THE ONLY DISTRICT IN THE CITY THAT DOES, UH, THE, UH, TWO STORY UNITS ARE 30 FEET TALL.

THEY WILL BE THE ONES THAT ARE CLOSEST TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

UH, AS WE GET FURTHER EAST, THE, ALONG THAT NEW PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY AND POTENTIAL PARK.

UH, THERE ARE THREE STORY UNIT, THREE STORY UNITS THAT ARE 40 FEET TALL, WHICH IS SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN WHAT'S, UM, SUGGESTED IN THE BRANT PIKE OVERLAY.

BUT IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE.

UH, WE ALSO MADE EXCEPTIONS TO THE LIBRARY, UH, AND WE WILL LIKELY NEED TO MAKE EXCEPTIONS TO THE SENIOR CENTER ROOF LINE AS WELL.

UH, SO AS FAR AS CONFORMANCE WITH THE ZONING, UH, REGULATIONS, THE, UH, THE USE IS PRINCIPALLY PERMITTED IN THE PLANNED MIXED USE DISTRICT.

THERE'S APPROXIMATELY 40% OPEN SPACE.

UM, THE 80 TO A HUNDRED FOOT BUFFERS SIGNIFICANTLY EXCEED OUR MINIMUM, WHICH IS, UH, 25 FEET, UH, NOT INCLUDED, WHICH IS NOT, UH, UNUSUAL WITH THIS BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

UH, SUBMISSION IS SIGNAGE, LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING.

ALL OF THAT WILL BE ADDRESSED, UM, DURING THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN IF, IF WE MOVE FORWARD.

UM, AS I SAID, UH, LANDSCAPING HASN'T BEEN PER, UH, SUBMITTED, BUT WE DO RECOMMEND CLUSTERS OF, UH, PLANTINGS AND STREET TREES ALONG THAT PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY.

UH, FRONTAGE, UH, THE CODE REQUIRES TWO PARKING SPACES PER UNIT.

THE REVISED SITE PLAN, UH, HAS RAISED THAT TO, UH, 1.9 SPACES PER UNIT, WHICH IS, UH, MORE THAN WE'RE GETTING IN A LOT OF MULTIFAMILY.

[00:25:01]

WE'RE BETWEEN 1.7 AND 1.8, UH, THAT PARKING RATIO.

SO THIS, UH, UH, THIS IS MORE THAN ADEQUATE.

WE'VE ALSO ARE DESIGNING THE, UH, THE ROADWAY TO HAVE PARALLEL PARKING, SO FOR SOME POTENTIAL OVERFLOW.

UH, SO WE DON'T, WE DIDN'T WANT TO SEE ADDITIONAL PARKING BEING CHEWED INTO THE SITE AND TAKING UP GREEN SPACE.

WE CAN ACCOMMODATE THAT ON THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY.

AS FAR AS THE CONFORMANCE WITH THE RAMP PIKE OVERLAY DISTRICT, UM, IT'S GOT A HEIGHT, UH, LIMIT OF THREE STORIES OF 35 FEET.

THREE STORY BUILDINGS DUE, UH, EXCEED THAT SLIGHTLY, UM, BY 40 FEET.

STAFF DOES SUPPORT THAT DEVIATION.

IT GIVES IT A, A BETTER URBAN FEEL.

UH, AND THE FRONT SETBACKS, UH, WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED IS 20 FEET.

UH, THE MINIMUM IS 10 FEET.

SO IT'S CONSISTENT, UH, WITH THAT REQUIREMENT.

UM, THE PROPOSED ELEVATIONS ARE CONSISTENT WITH OUR BUILDING MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS.

UM, AND SO FAR AS STAFF'S ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION, UH, WE FEEL THAT THE STANDARDS OF APPROVAL OUTLINED IN 11 71 0 6, UH, CAN BE MET.

AND WE RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS THAT STREET TREES BE PROVIDED.

UH, 40 FOOT ON CENTER, THAT A SIGNED PACKAGE MEETING, UH, THE ZONING CODE SHALL BE SUBMITTED WITH THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN, UH, THAT A LIGHTING PLAN BE SUBMITTED, A LANDSCAPING PLAN, ALL CONSISTENT WITH THE, UH, THE ZONING CODE, UH, CLUSTERED LANDSCAPING IN THE FRONT OF THE BUILDINGS, UH, ALONG THAT, UM, PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY.

UH, AND THEN THE APPLICANT COMPLIES WITH ALL STORMWATER REQUIREMENTS, UH, PER OUR CITY ENGINEER AND ALL, UH, FIRE CODE REQUIREMENTS.

THE, UH, PROJECT HAS RECEIVED TWO LETTERS OF SUPPORT FROM THE COMMUNITY.

UM, UH, THE PLANNING COMMISSION VOTED, UH, UNANIMOUSLY TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

UH, ARE THERE QUESTIONS OF ME, ANY QUESTIONS FOR AARON BEFORE WE MOVE THROUGH THE PUBLIC HEARING? YES.

DID YOU SAY THE, UH, DEVELOPER HAS, UH, ANOTHER BRIEFING? THE DEVELOPER DOES HAVE A SLIDE DECK THAT, UH, SHOWS, UH, BETTER PERSPECTIVE ELEVATIONS AND, AND 'CAUSE THEY'VE ADDED SINCE THE LAST PLANNING COMMISSION.

'CAUSE THERE WAS CONCERNS ABOUT NOT HAVING BALCONIES.

THEY'VE SINCE REVISED THE ELEVATIONS ALONG THE EAST SIDE TO INCLUDE BALCONIES.

SO THEIR, THEIR PRESENTATION HAS BETTER GRAPHICS THAN, THAN MINE DOES.

IF YOU WANNA SEE PERSPECTIVES YES, I DO.

CAN WE SEE IT? YEAH, THANK YOU.

OR THEY'RE HERE IF THEY WANNA GIVE THE PRESENTATION THAT'S NOT NUMBER THREE ON THE PUBLIC HEARING, JUST THEIR PRESENTATION.

YEP.

OH, OKAY.

BUT WE'LL, WE'LL, UH, WE'LL BRING IT UP FOR THEM.

THEN, UH, WELL, I DON'T KNOW IF I'D ASK YOU NOW OR ASK YOU AT THAT POINT.

UM, SO WHERE, WHERE ARE THE SIDEWALKS? SO THE SIDEWALKS ARE TOUGH TO SEE ON HERE, BUT BASICALLY THERE ARE, UH, SIDEWALKS ALONG THE NEW PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY.

THERE'S ALSO SIDEWALKS ALONG THE FRONT OF EVERY BUILDING, UH, AND CONNECTION SIDEWALK CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE PARKING AREA AND THE BUILDING.

SO THE, THE SIDE, THE INTERIOR SIDEWALKS, UH, EXCEED OUR, OUR MINIMUM, UH, REQUIREMENT AS FAR AS WIDTH.

UH, AND THE, AND THE APPLICANT IS, HAS ACTUALLY, THEY'VE, THEY'VE DONE EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE ASKED THEM TO DO REGARDING CONNECTIVITY.

AND, AND I DO APPRECIATE THAT THE, THEIR RESPONSIVENESS, BECAUSE I SAT IN ON ONE OF THOSE MEETINGS AND, AND, UM, THAT WAS REALLY GOOD.

NOW, ONE OF THE THINGS I ASKED FOR IN THAT MEETING WAS, UH, THAT THE, THE ORIGINAL HEAD FOR THE FOUR GARAGES ALONG THE BACK LINE, I CAN SEE THE TWO IN THE BACK, AND I'M, I THINK I SEE THE TWO IN THE FRONT.

UH, BUT I'M NOT 100% SURE.

SO THERE ARE A GARAGE HERE, A GARAGE HERE, UH, ONE HERE.

AND THEN, UM, AM I MISSING ONE MAINTENANCE GARAGE? THE MAINTENANCE GARAGE, WHICH IS RIGHT HERE, THE MAINTENANCE GARAGE.

IS THAT, YEAH.

SO ONE OF THE RESIDENT AMENITIES THAT THEY HAVE, UH, IS BASICALLY A, A SMALL GARAGE FOR RESIDENT TO, TO DO MINOR REPAIRS.

MM-HMM.

, UH, AIR TIRES, THINGS LIKE THAT.

SO THEY'RE NOT DOING IT ACTUALLY, UH, IN THE PARKING LOT.

UH, RESIDENTS ACTUALLY PARKING HERE, BUT ALSO PROVIDES PARKING FOR USERS OF THE FUTURE PARK.

I THOUGHT WE HAD FOUR FOUR PARKING GARAGES FOR THE TENANTS.

THAT IS, THAT IS INCLUDED AS PART OF THAT.

OH, SO THEY, DO, THEY, OKAY.

AND HOW SO THERE WON'T BE ANY PARKING ON THE STREETS.

SO WHAT WE'VE DESIGNED HERE, UH, IS, UM, LET ME SEE.

WELL, SO WE HAVE, AS ONE OF THE BID ALTERNATES, WE HAVE PARALLEL PARKING THAT REALLY COMES DOWN, UH, AND CURVES AROUND IN FRONT OF THE, THE, THE SENIOR CENTER AS WELL.

UM, THAT WOULD PROVIDE BOTH OVERFLOW PARKING IF, UH, YOU KNOW, VISITORS WERE HERE.

WE DON'T ANTICIPATE,

[00:30:01]

MAYBE SOME FOOD TRUCKS, STAGING AREAS.

IT'S ALSO, UH, OVERFLOW PARKING WHEN THE SENIOR CENTER HAS EVENTS.

AND WE HAVE A COUNCIL MEETING AS WELL, SO THAT, AGAIN, WE'RE NOT BUILDING PARKING LOTS THAT ARE GONNA BE USED TWO OR THREE TIMES A YEAR.

SO WE DO HAVE OVERFLOW ALONG THAT ENTIRE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY.

WHAT ABOUT BETWEEN THE BUILDINGS? ALL OF THIS IS PARKING.

THIS IS ALL PARKING THERE, THERE IS, UM, VERY CONVENIENT PARKING FOR ALL OF THE RESIDENTS, UH, FOR THEIR BUILDINGS.

AND HOW WIDE ARE THE ROADS? THE, THE DRIVE AISLES, I BELIEVE ARE, UH, 26 FEET.

UM, THE PARKING, UH, STALLS ARE, UM, NINE BY EIGHT, 10 BY 18.

NINE BY 18, SORRY.

UM, OKAY.

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT, THAT THAT ROAD THAT WE WOULD BENEFIT BY HAVING THE ROAD IN BETWEEN THE APARTMENTS WIDER, IF THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME PARKING ON THOSE STREETS, WE HAVE ENOUGH LAND THERE THAT WE COULD WIDEN THE STREET AND MAKE IT MORE.

I MEAN, IS, ARE WE GONNA HAVE BICYCLE LANES IN THERE FOR, YOU KNOW, IF PEOPLE WANTED TO? SO, SO THE, THE, THE AISLE WITH DISTANCE IS, UM, PRETTY SIMILAR TO ALL OF THE OTHER APARTMENTS, BUILDINGS THERE, APARTMENT COMMUNITIES THAT WE HAVE, UH, APPROVED RECENTLY.

UH, THE MAIN ISSUE IS THAT IT NEEDS TO BE AT LEAST 26 FEET WIDE FOR OUR OUTRIGGERS FOR, UH, THE FIRETRUCK MM-HMM.

UH, AND SO IT MEETS ALL OF THOSE STANDARDS.

THERE'S REALLY NOT AN, UH, FROM A PLANNING PERSPECTIVE, THERE'S REALLY NOT A GOOD REASON TO MAKE THE INTERIOR DRIVE AISLES ANY WIDER.

UM, THAT'LL JUST INCREASE SPEEDING.

UM, THE SIDEWALKS THAT ARE, THAT WILL BE CONSTRUCTED ALONG OUR ROAD, THE NEW PUBLIC WILL BE A MINIMUM OF, UH, SIX FEET WIDE.

UM, BUT THERE ARE FIVE FOOT SIDEWALKS THAT BASICALLY CONNECT ALL OF THE BUILDINGS THAT CONNECT THE, UH, THAT, UH, ARE ALONG THE PERIMETER OF THE BUILDINGS THAT CONNECT THE, THE PARKING AREAS TO THE BUILDINGS, AND THEN WILL ALSO MAKE CONNECTIONS TO THE NEW PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY.

AND WHILE I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS THE WAY THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING IT, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE LOOK FORWARD AND TRY TO MAKE OUR CITY MORE MULTIMODAL, UM, YOU KNOW, IF PEOPLE WANTED TO BICYCLE AROUND THAT AREA TO HAVE A SAFE PATH, UM, SO WE COULD, I MEAN, WE CAN LOOK AT INCREASING THE, UM, THE WIDTH OF WHAT WE ARE GONNA BID, WHICH WOULD BE THE, THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF, UM, THERE, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND INCREASING THE WIDTH OF THEIR INTERNAL CIRCULATION, UM, DRIVES.

IT WILL, UM, IT WILL, IT WILL CAUSE MORE PROBLEMS FROM SPEEDING.

UH, IT'S, IT'S A COMFORTABLE DESIGN NOW.

UM, BUT WE CAN CERTAINLY LOOK AT THE, BECAUSE WE'RE IN THE DESIGN PHASE NOW OF THAT NEW PUBLIC ROAD THAT, THAT WILL GO, THAT SWINGS FROM BRANT PIKE, UH, ALL THE WAY AND ULTIMATELY GOES NORTH TO MAKE THE CON CONNECTION TO HUBER CENTER.

WE CAN CERTAINLY LOOK AT MAKING, UM, THE PATHWAYS WIDE, THE PATHWAYS WIDER THERE.

THAT'S WHAT I WOULD RECOMMEND IS MAKING THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY WIDER, NOT NECESSARILY THE INTERNAL CIRCULATION OF THIS APARTMENT COMPLEX.

CALL REPRESENTATIVES OF CONTINENTAL SEVEN FIFTY TWO FUND L L C TO MAKE YOUR COMMENTS OR PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

I'M SORRY, MA'AM.

OH, I JUST WANNA MAKE A COMMENT ON, OH, SORRY.

AARON'S PRESENTATION.

IF YOU COULD GO BACK TO YOUR OVERVIEW SLIDE, AARON, UH, SHOWING THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT.

THERE YOU GO.

UM, I NOTED THAT, UH, ON THE DRAWING YOU HANDED OUT ON THIS ONE, YOU DON'T, UH, HAVE THE, UM, CR DAYTON, UM, DEMOLISHED PROPERTY LISTED AS, UM, POTENTIAL FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED WITH THAT.

RIGHT.

WE STILL INTEND TO HAVE THAT PARCEL AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.

THAT'S MY, THAT'S MY, UH, UNDERSTANDING.

I, UH, I JUST FORGOT.

OH, THAT'S OKAY.

I, I JUST NOTED AS AN OVERSIGHT AND I DIDN'T KNOW IF SOMETHING HAD CHANGED.

NOT TO MY KNOWLEDGE, NO.

SO NOW WE'D CALL REPRESENTATIVES FROM CONTINENTAL SEVEN FIFTY TWO FUND L L C TO MAKE ANY COMMENTS THAT THEY HAVE.

YOU'LL SEE THERE'S ARTICULATION.

HELLO, COUNCIL, UH, MEMBERS, COUNCIL AND MAYOR.

UH, MY NAME IS TREVOR STADLER WITH CONTINENTAL

[00:35:01]

PROPERTIES.

I'M ALSO HERE WITH MY COWORKER ERIN CONWAY.

UM, WE HAVE PREPARED A, A PRESENTATION HERE IF YOU GUYS WOULD LIKE TO HEAR IT.

WE ALSO DO HAVE SAMPLES OF THE MATERIALS THAT WILL BE USED ON OUR ELEVATIONS IF YOU GUYS WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM.

OBVIOUSLY YOU GUYS HAVE A, A BIG AGENDA TONIGHT, SO I WANT TO BE MINDFUL OF YOUR TIME IF YOU GUYS WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT.

I'M, I'M MORE THAN PLEASED TO GO THROUGH IT.

YES, IF YOU HAVE, IF YOU HAVE NEW RENDERINGS, UM, NEW PERSPECTIVES, THEN CERTAINLY WE'D LIKE TO SEE WHAT YOU HAVE.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.

SO LET ME JUST START OFF QUICK ABOUT CONTINENTAL.

SO WE ARE, WE ARE A MIDWEST DEVELOPER BASED IN MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN.

WE REALLY STARTED WITH BIG BOX RETAIL AND IN THE EARLY TWO THOUSANDS PIVOTED TOWARDS MULTI-FAMILY.

ERIN AND I WORK ON A TEAM THAT IS, UH, SOLELY MULTI-FAMILY.

UM, WE'VE DONE 37 DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES IN THE MIDWEST, TWO IN OHIO.

UM, SORRY, I FEEL LIKE THERE WAS, THERE WE GO.

THOUGHT THERE WAS A SLIDE IN BETWEEN THERE.

SO YEAH, OVERALL, WE'VE DONE A TOTAL OF 125, UH, COMMUNITIES THAT'S OVER 35,000 HOME, 19 STATES.

UM, AND YEAH, IN OUR PORTFOLIO, WE HAVE OVER 44 YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCE ACROSS THE MIDWEST.

UM, OUR EXPERTISE REALLY COMES FROM OUR VERTICALLY INTEGRATED TEAM.

SO EVERY SINGLE MEMBER OF OUR TEAM IS COMMITTED TO THE, UH, THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE DEVELOP IN.

UM, SO WE HAVE MARKET RESEARCH TEAMS, OPERATIONS, CONSTRUCTION.

SO WE TAKE IT FROM START TO FINISH, ALL IN HOUSE.

WE'RE AN OWNER OPERATOR.

UM, OUR PLAN IS NOT TO, YOU KNOW, LEASE THIS THING UP IN A FEW YEARS AND THEN JUST LEAVE, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE THESE FUNDS SET UP.

SO WE, WE ARE INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY FOR THE LONG RUN.

SO OUR PROPOSAL SNAPSHOT, AARON WENT OVER A LOT OF THIS, YOU KNOW, IT'S 10 BUILDINGS, 188 HOMES.

IT'S A MIX OF TWO AND THREE STORY BUILDINGS.

UM, AND IT IS A ZONED PROPERTY.

UM, AS AARON HAD MENTIONED, YOU KNOW, THERE WAS A LOT OF ITERATIONS THAT WE WENT THROUGH.

SO THE FIRST ONE WAS REALLY, THAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT INTERNALLY AND KIND OF SHARED WITH AARON WAS THIS ORIGINAL PROPOSAL, UH, WHICH HAD LESS BUILDINGS, BUT THEY WERE ALL THREE STORY.

UM, AND THEN WE, WE HAD ACTUALLY HEARD ABOUT THE PREVIOUS DEVELOPMENT THAT WAS PLANNED FOR THIS SITE, HOW IT HAD THE HIGHER THE ROOFTOPS, UM, AND THE BALCONIES THAT WERE FACING THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL.

UM, AND WITH THAT DISCUSSION, WE REALIZED THAT THAT WAS NOT SOMETHING THAT WE FELT COMFORTABLE BRINGING.

SO WE ACTUALLY MADE SOME ITERATIONS BEFORE THAT.

UM, WE HAD MADE THOSE, THE, THE THREE STORY ADJACENT TO THE SINGLE FAMILY AND INCREASING THOSE BUFFER WHERE POSSIBLE.

SO FIRST WE KIND OF, WE PUSHED SOME OF THOSE BUILDINGS BACK, LOWERED THE HEIGHTS OF THOSE REAR BUILDINGS TO BE TWO STORIES AND REDUCED OUR OVERALL UNIT COUNT TO 2 88, SOMETHING THAT WE FELT THE NEIGHBORS WOULD BE MORE COMFORTABLE WITH.

UM, GOING FORWARD WITH THAT, WE HAD THAT NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING, UM, AND WE HAD A LOT OF FEEDBACK, WHICH WE REALLY, WE REALLY ENJOYED.

WE LOVED HEARING THAT.

SO WE KNEW HOW TO MOVE FORWARD.

REALISTICALLY, IT WAS, WE REALIZED THE, THE BACK OF THE PROPERTY, THAT WESTERN PROPERTY LINE WAS REALLY WHERE WE NEEDED TO FOCUS OUR EFFORTS.

UM, SO WE CAME UP WITH, YOU KNOW, WE WANTED TO INCREASE THAT BUFFER, KEEP EXISTING VEGETATION, UM, MAYBE ADD THE GARAGES TO THAT WESTERN PROPERTY LINE TO, TO SCREEN VIEWS AND SOUND.

UM, AND THEN CONFIRM WATER AND SEWER CAPACITY, WHICH WE DID.

SO WE HAD A SECOND NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING A FEW WEEKS LATER.

UM, AND WE HAD MOVED THOSE GARAGES.

AND AS YOU CAN SEE, WE ORIGINALLY HAD JUST 30 FEET FROM THE EDGE OF PAVEMENT TO THE PROPERTY LINE.

WE THEN INCREASED THAT AT THE SHORTEST POINT, I THINK IT'S 81 FEET.

UM, AND WE ALSO DISCUSSED, YOU KNOW, ADDING A BERMAN, PUTTING A WALL ON TOP OF THAT JUST TO HELP MITIGATE THOSE VIEWS OR THE VIEWS AND THE SOUNDS, UM, AS WELL AS KEEP EXISTING VEGETATION WHERE THERE IS SOME, HOWEVER, WE STILL DID KEEP, YOU KNOW, THOSE, THOSE THREE STORY BUILDINGS TOWARDS THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY AND THE TWO STORY BUILDINGS AT THE BACK.

SO THIS WOULD BE OUR CURRENT CONCEPT PLAN, UM, VERY SIMILAR.

YOU'LL SEE WE MOVED ONE OF THE GARAGES WAS REALLY THE ONLY COMMENT THAT CAME OUT OF THAT MEETING.

THEN WE HAD SOME COMMENTS THAT DID COME FROM PLANNING COMMISSION.

IT WAS SOLELY ON THE ELEVATIONS.

UM, THEY WANTED TO SEE SOME MORE ARTICULATION WITH, UH, BALCONIES.

SO KNOWING THAT THE PREVIOUS DEVELOPMENT ACTUALLY HAD BALCONIES SHOWN THAT WERE FACING THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL.

UM, AND THE NEIGHBORS WERE NOT THRILLED ABOUT THAT.

WE DID ADD BALCONIES, BUT ONLY ON EASTERN FACING SIDES.

SO A LOT OF THOSE WOULD BE THE, THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY FACING.

SO IT ADDS THAT NICE URBAN FEEL.

PEOPLE CAN LOOK OVER THE FUTURE PARK SPACE OVER THE RIGHT OF WAY.

UM, IN TOTAL 60 BALCONIES WERE ADDED.

AND THEN ALSO, AS A REMINDER, ALL OF THE FIRST FLOOR UNITS DO HAVE A PATIO AS WELL.

SO IT'LL BE A TOTAL OF 180 OF THE 288 UNITS WILL HAVE, UH, PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE.

HERE ARE THE PROPOSED ELEVATIONS THAT WE DO HAVE.

UM, I KNOW AARON JUST SHARED THESE.

WE DO HAVE THREE BUILDING TYPES HERE AMONGST THE 10 BUILDINGS.

UM, AND THEN THERE'S ALSO MULTIPLE COLOR SCHEMES AND MATERIALS AS WELL.

HERE ARE SOME OF THOSE RENDERINGS THAT AARON SPOKE TO, A LITTLE BIT CLEANER AND NICER LOOKING HERE.

UM, AS YOU'LL

[00:40:01]

SEE, WE ARE SITUATED BEHIND THE LIBRARY THERE, OUR CLUBHOUSE IN THE CENTER, UM, THAT DOES HAVE, YOU KNOW, A FITNESS CENTER AND A POOL AND OUR ONSITE STAFF AS WELL AS THE, THE MIX OF THE BUILDINGS AND, AND GREENERY AND GREEN SPACE THROUGHOUT THE SITE.

HERE'S ANOTHER VIEW THAT'S THE, THIS WOULD BE THE VIEW THAT YOU WOULD GET OFF THAT PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY, THOSE NICE WIDE SIDEWALKS ALONG THE ROAD.

NICE GREENERY.

UM, AND A WELCOMING, YOU KNOW, INTRODUCTION TO OUR COMMUNITY.

SO SOME OF OUR COMMUNITY ME AMENITIES, WHICH I'VE ALREADY TOUCHED ON THAT CLUBHOUSE WITH THE FITNESS CENTER, THE, THE POOL.

UM, WE DO HAVE A LEASH FREE PET PARK, ACTUALLY TWO OF THEM ON THIS SITE, A PET WASS STATION.

AND THEN HONESTLY, I CANNOT SPEAK ENOUGH ABOUT OUR ONSITE TEAMS. UM, THEY ARE SUPER RESPONSIVE.

WE ALSO DO HAVE A 30 DAY PLEDGE, WHICH MEANS, YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE NOT HAPPY WITH YOUR LEASE IN 30 DAYS, WE WILL LET YOU LIKE, BREAK THAT LEASE AND YOU CAN GO, YOU CAN MOVE SOMEWHERE ELSE.

HERE ARE JUST SOME QUICK PICTURES OF A BUILT COMMUNITY.

THIS IS, THEY ARE DIFFERENT ACTUALLY, COLOR SCHEMES AND ELEVATIONS.

THESE WON'T HAVE, UM, THE MASONRY THAT WAS REQUESTED OF, UH, THIS PROJECT IN SPECIFIC, THIS PROJECT SPECIFICALLY.

UM, IT'D BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT COLORS, BUT KIND OF JUST A, A FEEL OF IT.

THE INTERIOR DESIGN, WE DO HAVE STUDIOS, TWO, THREE BEDROOMS. UM, THEY'RE GONNA HAVE PRIVATE AND SEMI-PRIVATE ENTRANCES.

THOSE ONES WITH THE BALCONY OR THE PATIOS WOULD HAVE A PRIVATE ENTRANCE, OTHERWISE IT'S GONNA BE A WALK-UP STYLE.

UM, OPEN FLOOR PLANS, QUALITY FINISHES, HERE'S A PICTURE OF THE INSIDE.

VERY CLEAN, MODERN, NICE BIG BEDROOMS. INSIDE OF THE CLUBHOUSE IS VERY SIMILAR, A SPACE THAT YOU CAN RENT OUT IF YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, A LARGE PARTY OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

AND THEN REALLY THE CONTINENTAL VALUE IT'S GONNA BE, IT'S GONNA COME DOWN TO THE FACT THAT WE ARE HERE BECAUSE WE WANT TO BE IN HUBER HEIGHTS.

WE'VE DONE THE RESEARCH.

THIS IS SOMEWHERE WE WANT TO BE.

WE'VE MADE THESE RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE PEOPLE HERE AND WE'RE REALLY EXCITED TO MOVE FORWARD.

AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT OUR WHOLE TEAM AGREES ON, NOT JUST ME AND AARON, BUT EVERYBODY IN OUR VERTICALLY INTEGRATED TEAM.

UM, I, ANY QUESTIONS? I TRY TO BE FAST.

SO, SO WE'LL GET TO THE QUESTIONS POINT IF COUNSEL HAS ANY FOR YOU AS WE GO THROUGH THE PUBLIC HEARING.

UM, SO THERE'S A, A SPOT FOR COUNSEL TO MAKE ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS OR ASK QUESTIONS, BUT WE'RE GONNA MOVE THROUGH THE HEARING KIND OF AS THE ORDER THAT WE HAVE IT.

PERFECT.

SO NEXT I WOULD ASK IF THERE'S ANYONE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THE APPROVAL OF THIS PARTICULAR AGENDA ITEM THIS EVENING? PAUL SCHAFER FROM HUBER HEIGHTS.

UM, I, I ACTUALLY WENT TO BOTH OF THE, UH, PUBLIC SESSIONS FOR THIS AND, UH, WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE OUTCOME.

UH, COMPANY SEEMS TO BE VERY INTERESTED IN WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY, INTEGRATING INTO THE COMMUNITY.

AND, UM, WHILE THIS IS NOT EXACTLY WHAT WE HAD, UH, ORIGINALLY HOPED WE WERE GONNA GET OUTTA THIS DEVELOPMENT, IT IS, UH, PROBABLY THE BEST WE CAN DO.

AND IT CERTAINLY FROM A LARGE NUMBER OF FOLKS I'VE TALKED TO ARE, ARE, WE THINK THIS IS THE BEST WAY CAN GET OUT OF IT.

SO THANK YOU.

IS ANYONE ELSE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THE APPROVAL OF THIS ISSUE THIS EVENING? YES, MY NAME IS JOE, J O CLARK.

C L A R K.

I LIVE AT 6 0 8 2 BURY DRIVE, WHICH IS TO THE WEST OF THE DEVELOPMENT.

UM, IN FAVOR.

WELL, NATURALLY, NOT IN FAVOR.

DON'T WANT ANYTHING BEHIND MY HOUSE, BUT WE KNOW THINGS HAVE TO EVOLVE.

UM, I DO LIKE THIS PLAN MUCH BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL ONE WITH THE OTHER DEVELOPER.

I'M KIND OF CONCERNED THAT IF WITH ALL THIS CONSTRUCTION THAT ROAD GETS RIPPED UP, WHO'S GOING TO PAY TO REMAKE THAT ROAD? AND I DON'T BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE THE CITIZENS OF HUBER HEIGHTS.

THIS ONE SEEMS MORE, UM, MORE IN FAVOR OF THE, OF THE, THE GREEN SPACE, THINGS LIKE THAT.

SO I DO LIKE THIS ONE A LOT BETTER.

JUST A LOT OF MY QUESTIONS HAVE ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED JUST FROM SITTING HERE WITH THE PRESENTATION , SO, BUT I DO JUST HAVE A COUPLE OF SOME MORE QUESTIONS.

IF I COULD ASK, JUST TO PUT THINGS INTO PEOPLE'S MINDS.

I DON'T KNOW IF I'M GONNA GET QUESTIONS OR ANSWERS TODAY, BUT JUST TO KEEP THINGS IN MIND, UM, WILL THE CONSTRUCTION BE DONE IN SECTIONS OR IS IT GOING TO BE A MASS ALL OF A SUDDEN THE WHOLE LAND IS GONNA BE RIPPED UP AND START CONSTRUCTION ON THE WHOLE THING? UM, CONCERNED WITH CONSTRUCTION, DUST, DEBRIS ALSO.

UM, WILL THE TRUCKS DOING THE CONSTRUCTION BEING GOING IN AND OUT THE MEDICAL CENTER ROAD, I SUPPOSE THEY WILL BE, BUT THAT IS ALSO ONE ROAD, THAT ONE WAY IN ONE WAY OUT FOR THE MEDICAL CENTER AND FOR THE LIBRARY.

HOW MUCH IS THAT GONNA DISRUPT THEM? PEOPLE TRYING TO GO TO THIS BRAND NEW LIBRARY, WHICH IS GORGEOUS.

ALSO AT, IF THEY ARE, IF, IF THE CONSTRUCTION IS GOING TO BE ON THAT ROAD, THAT'S A PRETTY BRAND NEW ROAD.

UM, I DON'T KNOW WHO PAID FOR IT IN THE BEGINNING, BUT

[00:45:01]

UM, LET ME SEE.

OH, WE, NO ONE HAS SAID ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT THE AVERAGE RENT OF THESE APARTMENTS ARE GONNA BE.

UM, NATURALLY CONCERNED LOW INCOME, BUT WE HAVE NOT HEARD, I HAVE NOT SEEN ANYTHING ON THE WEBSITE ABOUT WHAT THE RENTS ARE GONNA BE FOR THIS.

I BELIEVE THESE ARE ALL MARKET RATE, BUT WE'LL, CERTAINLY.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M KEEPING TRACK OF QUESTIONS.

I DON'T, THEY PROBABLY ARE TOO, BUT, WE'LL, WE'LL LET THEM ADDRESS THOSE TOO.

HE'S DOING A REAL GOOD JOB.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT MARKET RATE MEANS, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? WHAT THE MARKET WILL BEAR, SO OH, OKAY.

NOT, NOT LOW INCOME.

BASED ON, I'M JUST BASED ON WHAT THE MARKETS WILL BE.

COMBINATION BASED ON OTHER APARTMENTS IN HUBER HEIGHTS, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

OKAY, VERY GOOD.

UM, I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING ABOUT THE OUTDOOR LIGHTING.

UM, ANY PLAN FOR OUTDOOR LIGHTING WHERE THAT'S GONNA BE, UM, CONCERNED.

UM, FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND NOW, THERE'S GONNA BE TWO GARAGES ON THE WEST SIDE.

UM, WHERE IS THIS LIGHTING GONNA BE? HOW TALL IS IT GOING TO BE AND HOW IT WILL AFFECT THE HOUSINGS, THE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES? OKAY.

UM, I'M, I'M, I SAW A LOT OF NUMBERS UP THERE, SO I WASN'T REALLY SURE, UH, HOW FAR BACK FROM OUR FENCE LINE, WHICH IS OUR PROPERTY LINE, HOW FAR BACK COMING, YOU KNOW, THIS WAY WILL BE THOSE GARAGES.

OH, , I WAS GONNA ANSWER ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS.

OH, OKAY.

VERY GOOD.

AND IF SOME GREENERY IS GONNA BE LEFT ON THE WEST SIDE, HOW MUCH IS THERE LEFT NOW? , YOU KNOW, BECAUSE SOMEBODY'S GOING IN THERE AND RIPPING EVERYTHING OUT IMMEDIATELY RIGHT NOW.

BECAUSE I HEARD, YOU KNOW, THERE'S, THERE'S 180 TO A HUNDRED FEET BACK, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT STARTS, WHERE THAT'S STARTING AT.

UM, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE CREEK AT THE SOUTH END.

THAT IS, UM, BETWEEN THE PROPERTY AND THE, UM, ATHLETICS CENTER, THE FOUND THE ATHLETIC FOUNDATION CENTER.

UM, LAST DEVELOPER SAID THEY WERE NOT GONNA DO ANYTHING WITH THAT CREEK, BUT WE HAVE NOT HEARD WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN WITH IT.

NOW.

UM, DUMPSTER LOCATIONS, WE HAVE A LOT OF INDIVIDUAL BUILDINGS THERE.

WHERE ARE ALL THE DUMPSTERS GONNA BE PUT AND 'CAUSE NATURALLY CONCERNED WITH THE TRASH VERMIN, WHAT HAPPENS WITH THAT? OKAY.

UM, ON THE, ON THE PICTURE, UM, IT WAS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE PICTURE LABELED THE RETENTION.

WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT BECAUSE THAT IS BEHIND ALL OF OUR HOUSES.

IS THAT GOING TO CONTINUOUSLY HAVE WATER IN IT? UM, HOW IS IT GONNA BE TR TREATED FOR MOSQUITOES? AM I GONNA BE ABLE TO SIT IN MY BACKYARD OR AM I GONNA BE INDICTED WITH MOSQUITOES ALL THE TIME? AND IS THERE GOING TO BE FENCING AROUND THAT? UM, I THINK A LOT OF THINGS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED.

THE MAIN ONE THING, UM, I CALLED THE CITY ON SEPTEMBER 21ST BECAUSE THERE WAS A LOT OF BANGING AND BANGING, HEAVY BANGING GOING ON IN THE FIELD.

I'M WORKING FROM HOME RIGHT NOW.

I HAVE MY WINDOW OPEN, IT FACES THE FIELD, I CAN HEAR ALL THIS.

AND THERE WAS JUST TREMENDOUS BANGING, BANGING, BANGING, GOING ON IN THE FIELD.

THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE'S THIS BIG CRANE LIKE THING BACK THERE.

AND I CALLED THE CITY.

AND KYRON, GANTT, THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR WAS VERY KIND TO CALL ME BACK.

AND HE SAID THAT THE COMPANY WAS TAKING CORE SAMPLES BACK THERE.

AND THAT WAS GREAT.

I UNDERSTOOD THAT, UM, BECAUSE OF THE, UM, DRY CLEANER THAT USED TO BE IN THE BUILDING.

THAT WAS GREAT.

UM, ONE CONCERN THOUGH IS, IS THE CORE SAMPLES SEEM TO BE TAKEN IN THE, UM, TREE AREAS.

ARE THOSE CORE SAMPLES BEING TAKEN IN WHERE THE ACTUAL BUILDING WAS, WHERE THE, THE DRY CLEANER WAS.

UM, ALSO WE HAD A FRIEND COME OVER, TAKE UP A DRONE 'CAUSE WE WERE CONCERNED WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THERE AND EVERYTHING, YOU KNOW, AND THE, IT'S SHOWING US THAT PRACTICALLY ALL THE TREES ARE GONE.

THE OUTLINE OF THE, THE TREE LINE, EAST, WEST, NORTH, SOUTH, IT'S ALL THERE, BUT INSIDE PRACTICALLY ALL THE TREES ARE GONE.

MY CONCERN IS, IS WHO TOOK 'EM, WHO RIPPED THEM UP, AND WHO PAID FOR IT? AGAIN, I DON'T THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THE CITIZENS OF HUBER HEIGHTS SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR.

WHO DID THAT LAND CLEARING AND WHY WAS IT BEING DONE BEFORE ANYTHING'S BEEN DECIDED? THIS IS JUST A BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

THIS IS BEING DONE NOW.

UM, MY THOUGHT IS THE DEVELOPER SHOULD BE PAYING FOR THIS.

AND IF THEY'RE DOING IT NOW, WHY IS IT BEING DONE NOW?

[00:50:01]

AND, UM, KYRON SAID HE WOULD GET BACK TO ME.

UNFORTUNATELY, HE HAS NOT RETURNED TO MY CALL.

HE SAID HE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS.

HE DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON, WHO WAS DOING IT.

AND HE HAS NOT CALLED ME BACK YET.

THAT IS SOMETHING I WILL FOLLOW UP ALSO WITH HIM THIS WEEK BECAUSE I DO NEED THAT CALL BACK.

UM, I, I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.

I AM HERE AT THE INVITATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL, GOT THE LITTLE POSTCARD , SO I DO APPRECIATE YOU, UM, ASKING US TO BE HERE.

THAT IS A GOOD THING THAT, THAT, UM, EVERYONE'S INVOLVED IN THIS.

THAT'S GOOD.

UM, OH, LAST QUESTION, AND I THINK YOU TOUCHED ON THIS.

ONE OF THE, UM, ONE OF THE POSSIBILITIES WAS THE SIX FOOT PRIVACY FENCE, A TOP OF FIVE FOOT BERM.

SO NATURALLY WE ARE CONCERNED WITH ALL THE RUNOFF, EVERYTHING THAT'S GONNA RUN OFF BECAUSE OUR BACKYARDS ARE LOWER THAN THE FIELD ABOVE US.

SO THERE'S A SLOPE THAT GOES UP OUR BACKYARD INTO THE FIELD.

SO THE SLOPE GOES UP, THE SLOPE COMES DOWN .

SO WE'RE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE RUNOFF ON THAT TOO.

AND I THINK THAT'S IT AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME, BUT I WOULD LIKE SOME ANSWERS .

SURE.

SO THANK YOU.

APPRECIATE YOU, YOU BEING HERE.

SO I THINK I'VE TAKEN DOWN, UH, QUITE A FEW NOTES AND, AND SOME OF THESE I THINK WE CAN GET CERTAINLY ADDRESSED NOW.

I THINK THAT INFORMATION EXISTS, UH, ITEMS LIKE THE, THE OUTDOOR LIGHTING AND I THINK SAME THING LIKE WITH THAT FENCING AND A LOT OF THOSE THINGS, THOSE PROCESSES WILL CERTAINLY GET ALL WORKED OUT AS PART OF OUR DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

SO, UH, ONCE WE GET TO THAT POINT, THEN I THINK IF WE GET TO THAT POINT, THEN I WOULD CERTAINLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU BE VERY ACTIVE AND THEN COME TO THOSE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETINGS WHERE THE DETAILED PLAN IS BEING WORKED OUT, BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE PLANNING COMMISSION WILL ACTUALLY MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS BACK TO THE DEVELOPER ON ALL THOSE DETAILS THAT, THAT YOU ARE SPEAKING OF, SUCH AS LIKE THE LIGHTING AND THE FENCING AND UM, MAYBE THE FENCING AROUND THE RETENTION AREA, THOSE TYPE OF ITEMS. SO THOSE ARE, THOSE ARE THINGS THAT ALL GET KIND OF WORKED OUT AS WE MOVE THROUGH THIS PROCESS.

SO, UH, THE HEARING FOR THIS EVENING FOR THE REZONING, WE CAN CERTAINLY ADDRESS SOME OF THESE ISSUES, UH, REGARDING THAT.

BUT THEN AGAIN, PLEASE, WE'LL MAKE ALL THOSE NOTICES AVAILABLE IN THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND WHEN THOSE NOTICES COME UP, UH, WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET NOTIFIED.

UM, AND THEN CERTAINLY COME AND FEEL FREE TO SPEAK THERE.

SO PLANNING COMMISSION IS AWARE OF WHAT YOUR CONCERNS ARE BEFORE THEY APPROVE ANY DETAILED PLANS.

UP TO 1814 FOR A THREE BEDROOM.

SO, UH, AARON, OR, UH, IN CONJUNCTION WITH TREVOR, IF YOU GUYS WANNA MAKE SOME COMMENTS, LIKE I, I KNOW CERTAINLY ON PHASING THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE COULD TALK ABOUT AS FAR AS, UH, ZONING, UH, DUST, THINGS LIKE THAT ABOUT WHAT THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS IS ABOUT.

UM, KIND OF THE MEDICAL CENTER TRAFFIC.

I THINK THAT WAS, UH, AN ISSUE THAT WAS BROUGHT UP.

UM, ANY ISSUES WITH THAT CREEK? I THINK WE CAN DISCUSS, UH, THIS EVENING DUMPSTER LOCATIONS.

THAT WAS AN ITEM THAT WOULD CERTAINLY BE WORKED OUT THROUGH THE DETAILED PLAN.

UH, THE RETENTION AREAS.

UH, I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING WE CAN DISCUSS NOW.

UH, THE CORE SAMPLES, I THINK THAT QUESTION WAS, WAS ANSWERED.

AARON, MAYBE IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING EXTRA ON THAT AND THEN FROM A LAND CLEARING PERSPECTIVE, YEAH, I WOULDN'T KNOW WHO THAT IS EITHER.

I DON'T IF YOU KNOW KIND OF WHAT WAS GOING ON, YOU CAN ADDRESS THAT.

SO, UH, CERTAINLY THOSE QUESTIONS I THINK WE CAN GET ANSWERED THIS EVENING IF THAT'LL BE OKAY.

AND EVERYTHING ELSE WE CAN TAKE CARE OF THROUGH THE ACTUAL PROCESS OF THE DETAILED PLAN.

DOCTOR, WHY DON'T YOU TALK ABOUT THE DETENTION IN YOUR CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE? YEAH, SO IT WILL BE ONE PHASE CONSTRUCTION.

SO AS SOON AS WE START, WE WILL KEEP GOING AND WE WILL MAKE SURE, YOU KNOW, ALL THE BUILDINGS ARE DONE.

WE WEREN'T AND WE'RE NOT GONNA STOP, DO HALF THE SITE AND THEN COMMENCE A FEW YEARS LATER.

UM, SO WE'LL, WE'LL BE DOING ALL THAT IN ONE SWEEP.

IT SHOULD BE DONE, UM, ROUGHLY SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION WOULD BE MARCH OF 2026.

SO WE WOULD IDEALLY BREAK GROUND PROBABLY THE, OF THIS UPCOMING SUMMER.

UM, IT WOULD BE ROUGHLY TWO YEARS FROM START TO END AND THEN WE'D BE OUT OF THERE IN TERMS OF OUR CONSTRUCTION TRUCKS.

SO, UM, LET'S SEE, IN TERMS OF, YOU KNOW, DUST AND ANY POLLUTANTS AND STUFF LIKE THAT, UH, WE DO HIRE, UM, THE BEST OF THE BEST TO MAKE SURE, YOU KNOW, WE ARE COMPLYING TO ALL OF THAT.

SO ANY OF THE REGULATIONS THAT WE WOULD NEED TO FOLLOW, WHICH USUALLY INCLUDE THAT DUST AND ANY OF THAT POLLUTION CANNOT LEAVE OUR SITE.

SO, UM, THAT SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE THERE.

UM, WHAT'S ANOTHER QUESTION I CAN ANSWER RENTS, THAT'S AN ANS THAT'S A QUESTION THAT AARON PROBABLY DOESN'T KNOW.

UM, SO THIS WOULD BE THE BASE RENTS, UH, PROJECTED, THE AVERAGE RENT THERE WOULD BE 1365 A MONTH.

UM, SO IT REALLY COMES DOWN TO 1137 FOR A STUDIO

[00:55:01]

CAN YOU REPEAT THOSE NUMBERS AGAIN PLEASE? AVERAGE RENT 1365.

SO THE STUDIO WOULD START ROUGHLY AROUND 11 37, 3 BEDROOM WOULD BE ROUGHLY 1814.

YEP.

I'M TRYING TO THINK WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS CAN I ANSWER RIGHT AWAY? I THINK I CAN GET THE BALANCE OF IT.

I'M SORRY.

I SAID I CAN GET THE BALANCE OF IT.

LET ME SEE.

IS IT A WET DETENTION POND OR DRY? OH, GREAT.

IT IS A WET DETENTION POND.

UM, AS OF RIGHT NOW, THERE IS NO FENCING PLANNED, UH, TO GO AROUND IT.

UM, IT WILL BE TREATED.

UM, AND IN TERMS OF THE MOSQUITO COMMENTS, YOU KNOW, IF YOU LOOK AT THIS PLAN, THERE IS ACTUALLY A BUILDING ALSO RIGHT BEHIND IT.

ONE OF OUR, YOU KNOW, SOME OF OUR RESIDENTS WILL BE LIVING RIGHT THERE.

UM, AND OBVIOUSLY AS, AS AN OWNER OPERATOR, IF OUR RESIDENTS ARE UPSET ABOUT THE MOSQUITOES, YOU'LL PROBABLY BE UPSET ABOUT THE MOSQUITOES.

SO IT WOULD PROBABLY BE IN OUR BEST INTEREST AS WELL TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW, THAT THAT'S MITIGATED AS WELL.

SO, UM, YEP.

SO I THINK EVERYTHING ELSE, LISA, I WROTE DOWN, AS LONG AS I GOT EVERYTHING THAT IS NOT COVERED IN THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN PORTION, I THINK AARON YEAH, YOU'VE GOT, YOU CAN HANDLE THE REST OF THIS.

SO AS FAR AS THE CLEARING, UM, THAT WAS INITIATED BY US, UH, TO DO SOME ADDITIONAL SURVEY WORK AS FAR AS WELL AS ADDITIONAL, UM, UH, SOIL, UH, CORE BORING SAMPLES.

UM, THE, THE, UH, THE, UM, LAUNDROMAT IN QUESTION IS NOT ON CONTINENTAL SITE.

IT'S ACTUALLY WAS ROUGHLY HERE.

UM, AND, AND IT WOULD BE ON WHERE OUR, WHERE WE WOULD BE BUILDING THE NEW ROAD.

UH, AND SO WE HAVE OVER TIME BEEN TAKING, UM, SAMPLES AS FAR AS ANY, UH, YOU KNOW, UNDERGROUND POLLUTION AND, AND MAKING SURE ALL OF THAT HAS BEEN MITIGATED FROM WHERE THAT LAUNDROMAT WAS.

UH, I DO THINK THE CONTRACTOR THAT WE HIRED GOT A LITTLE AGGRESSIVE, UH, ON SOME OF THE CLEARING AND SO WE'LL, WE'LL DEAL WITH THAT.

UM, BUT AS FAR AS THE CONSTRUCTION, WE ARE WORKING WITH CONTINENTAL, UM, TO COORDINATE THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE, THE, OF THE NEW PUBLIC ROAD.

UM, AND SO THE, THE TOP CODE OF ASPHALT THAT, THAT LAST, YOU KNOW, SUPER SMOOTH, UH, WOULD NOT BE DONE UNTIL THEIR APARTMENTS ARE COMPLETED.

SO THAT, UM, WE MINIMIZE ANY DAMAGE TO THE, THE NEW ROAD THAT WOULD BE CONSTRUCTED.

BUT WE ARE COORDINATING OUR, UH, EFFORTS AND TIMELINE WITH THEIRS SO THAT, UM, IT IT'S ALL DONE AT AT, AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME AND FINISHED WHEN THEY'RE FINISHED WITH THEIR CONSTRUCTION.

AND THE PLAN WAS TO HAVE AT THE INITIAL CONSTRUCTION TRUCKS ENTER THROUGH THE SOUTH END OF THE SITE WHERE THERE'S ALREADY EXISTING, UH, PAVEMENT FROM THE PREVIOUS DEVELOP OR YOU KNOW, FROM THE OLD SHOPPING CENTER.

SO THEY WOULD BE, YOU KNOW, TEARING UP THAT OLD STUFF THAT'S GONNA BE REPLACED ANYWAYS AS OPPOSED TO, YOU KNOW, TEARING UP THE PUBLIC STREETS THAT CURRENTLY EXIST.

UM, I DID THINK OF ANOTHER QUESTION THAT I CAN ANSWER, UM, FOR THE CURRENT PLAN.

UM, ON THE WESTERN LINE, THERE WAS A QUESTION ABOUT THE DISTANCE FROM THE PROPERTY LINE TO THE GARAGES.

UM, THAT IS 87 FEET FROM PROPERTY LINE TO BACK OF GARAGE.

AND AS FAR AS THAT, THE CREEK, SO WE DO NOT OWN THIS PROPERTY YET.

AND I THINK, SO THE ONLY OTHER TWO THAT I HAVE HERE WAS, UH, SHE HAD SOME CONCERNS ABOUT THE CREEK AND ANY ISSUES THERE.

SO AARON'S GONNA ADDRESS THAT.

AND THEN THE SECOND THING WAS, AND I BELIEVE AARON I HEARD YOU SPEAK OF THIS AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, TALKING ABOUT, UM, FLOOD CONCERNS, BUT HOW THIS PROJECT AND THAT MOUND WOULD ACTUALLY HELP RELIEVE WATER AND FLOODING ISSUES ON THOSE BURY PROPERTIES.

SO COULD YOU JUST GO OVER THAT AGAIN? YEAH.

'CAUSE THAT WAS A QUESTION SHE HAD.

RIGHT.

SO WE'RE WELL AWARE THAT, UM, THAT THE, THERE ARE FLOODING ISSUES, UH, THAT THE RESIDENTS OCCASIONALLY, UH, INCUR BECAUSE OF THE, THE, THE SLOPE OF THE LAND, UH, DURING THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PROCESS.

UM, WE'LL WORK WITH THE APPLICANT TO MAKE SURE THAT ANY IMPROVEMENTS ON THAT WE, THAT WEST SIDE ACTUALLY IMPROVE THEIR DRAINAGE, UH, AND DOESN'T WORK AGAINST THE, AGAINST THAT.

UM, THE LAST PROPOSAL ALSO HAD A MOUND, BUT, UM, WE FELT THAT THAT WAS GOING TO EXASPERATE, UH, SOME OF THEIR FLOODING CONCERNS.

SO, UM, AS PART OF THAT PROCESS AND WHEN THEY GET THEIR FINAL, UH, SURVEY DONE IN THEIR FINAL, UM, GRADE, UM, FINAL GRADE, UM, ELEVATIONS, WE'LL REVIEW THAT WITH, WITH THE, WITH THE DEVELOPER, DEVELOPER, UH, TREVOR AND HIS TEAM AS WELL AS OURS, TO MAKE SURE THAT, THAT, UH, AT THE VERY, UH, THAT WE ACTUALLY ARE IMPROVING THEIR FLOODING SITUATION AND NOT, YOU KNOW, NOT DOING ANYTHING TO HARM IT.

I THINK AT THE END OF THE DAY, UH, WHEN THIS IS CONSTRUCTED OR, UM, THAT WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO MITIGATE, UH, MOST, IF NOT ALL OF THEIR FLOODING ISSUES.

UM,

[01:00:01]

UM, WE ARE, UM, WORKING TO ACQUIRE IT, BUT THE DETENTION POND, UM, WITH THE STORM OUTFLOW WOULD GO INTO THAT CREEK, WHICH THEN EVENTUALLY FLOWS INTO THE MAD RIVER.

UM, BUT, UM, IT IS OUR IN INTENT TO, BASICALLY IT'S ABANDONED PROPERTY, SO IT'S, OUR INTENT IS TO, UH, ACQUIRE THIS SO THAT WE CAN, UM, AT LEAST CLEAN IT UP A LITTLE BIT.

BUT WE'RE NOT GETTING RID OF THE CREEK OR ANY, WE'RE NOT GONNA PIPE, UH, YOU KNOW, THE CREEK OR ANY OF THAT, MAY, ANY OF THAT.

SO THE CREEK WILL REMAIN.

AND THEN, I'M SORRY, THERE'S ONE MORE THING THAT I CAN ADDRESS IS THE, THE TRASH.

SO THERE IS A, A DUMPSTER COMPACTOR THAT WILL BE LOCATED ON THE SOUTH END OF THE SITE, UM, THAT WOULD BE PICKED UP REGULARLY, THE SOUTH, THE SOUTH, AND MORE TOWARDS DOG TOWN COMPLETELY.

ON THE OTHER SIDE, THE, THE DETENTION POND.

SO IF I'M SPIT BALLING, PROBABLY 300 ISH FEET FROM THE PROPERTY LINE.

SO I, I GOT YOUR FIRST NAME, JOE, I JUST , I, I DIDN'T REMEMBER YOUR LAST NAME, BUT IS THERE, UM, SO BASED ON WHAT WE HEARD THIS EVENING LEASE ARE, ARE YOUR INITIAL QUESTIONS ANSWERED OR SATISFIED UNTIL WE GET TO THE DETAILED PLAN? I FORGOT ONE OF THEM.

UM, CAN YOU COME TO THE MIC? DEAD ENDING IS THE PROPERTY AND PLAN THROUGH THAT WITH THIS? NO, THE OTHER DEVELOPER WAS NOT GONNA DO ANYTHING.

SO YOU DEAD.

WE WILL NOT BE DOING ANYTHING WITH THE DEAD END AT LEGAL EITHER.

IT WILL STILL BE A DEAD END.

BAR WAS CHARGED.

UH, JUST FOR CLARIFICATION, THE CONSTRUCTION ENTRANCE WILL BE WHERE IT WOULD BE ON THE SOUTHERN END OF THE SITE, NEAR DOGTOWN IS WHERE THEY'LL ENTER THE SITE TO DO THE WORK.

AND THAT'S AN EXISTING PAVEMENT AREA, CORRECT? IS IT'S LEFT OVER FROM THE PREVIOUS MALL THAT WAS THERE.

AND AARON, WILL THAT BE ALL REDONE UPON COMPLETION? CORRECT, YES.

THAT WILL ALL BE DONE, UH, IN COORDINATION WITH US BUILDING, BUILDING THE RIGHT OF WAY.

BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S ESSENTIALLY REMNANTS OF THE, UM, UH, THE, THE PARKING, UH, AREA FROM THE FORMER SHOPPING CENTER AND THE DRIVE ISLES.

AND JUST REAL QUICK, JUST COME BACK TO THE PODIUM REAL QUICK JUST SO WE CAN MAKE SURE WE GET JUST THE ONE QUESTION ABOUT THAT.

SO IF WE'RE COMING IN THE SOUTH END NOW, THAT'S THE ONE WAY IN AND THE ONE WAY OUT FOR THE POST OFFICE , I, I THINK THE, THE SOUTH END OR THE SOUTHERN ENTRANCE OF BRANT, NOT, NOT DOWN ON THE, NOT OFF OF FISHBURG.

SO THEY'LL BE COMING OFF OF BRANT YEAH.

GOING DOWN INITIALLY.

YEAH, THEY'RE BASICALLY THROUGH HERE, WHICH IS NOT IN GREAT SHAPE, AND WE'LL BE REBUILT, UH, AS PART OF THIS PROJECT.

VERY GOOD.

THANK YOU DON.

AND ERIN, UH, ON THE CONSTRUCTION ACCESS, WE CAN REQUIRE THAT, THAT IS THE ONLY CONSTRUCTION ACCESS TO THE SITE, UH, IN REFERENCE TO, UH, HER ISSUE WITH, UH, REGARD TO USING THE PREMIER WAY.

UM, YEAH.

UM, AND, AND WE WILL WORK WITH THE DEVELOPER BECAUSE THE LAST THING WE WANNA DO IS NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE LIBRARY PREMIER'S, UH, FACILITY.

UM, SO WE WILL WORK ON THE PHASING AND HOW THAT WILL, HOW WE COORDINATE, UM, THE CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC AS WELL AS THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE'RE GONNA BE MAKING.

I MEAN, THERE'LL BE A LOT GOING ON HERE FOR, FOR 18 MONTHS OR SO.

UM, BUT WE WANT TO BE, WE WANNA MAKE SURE WE MINIMIZE, CERTAINLY MINIMIZE THE IMPACT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE WEST, BUT ALSO MINIMIZE THE IMPACT TO THE CURRENT, UM, USERS OF THIS SITE, SUCH AS THE LIBRARY, PREMIER DOG TOWN, ET CETERA.

GREAT.

AND AARON, COULD I ASK YOU TO, UM, RESTATE WHAT YOU HAD, UH, SAID, I BELIEVE AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING REGARDING THE IDENTIFICATION OF GOOD TREES ALONG THE, THE PROPERTY LINE AS FAR AS A CONCERN ABOUT CLEARING OUT ALL THESE TREES BACK THERE, UH, YOU HAD, UM, SPOKEN TO IDENTIFYING THE GOOD TREES AND GETTING RID OF THE SCRUB.

AS PART OF THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT, WHAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE GONNA ASK THEM TO DO IS ESSENTIALLY A, A TREE SURVEY ALONG THE PERIMETER TO SEE WHAT'S WORTH KEEPING, UH, AS FAR AS, UM, UM, DIAMETER, WHAT SHOULD BE, UM, REMOVED, UM, TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE STARTING WITH HEALTHY TREES AND NOT DEAD TREES.

THAT REALLY AFFECTS THE, BASICALLY THE SOUTHERN AREA THE MOST.

BUT, UH, THERE ARE SOME TREES ALONG THE WESTERN EDGE.

THERE'S A UTILITY CORRIDOR HERE.

UM, SO ANY TREE CLEARING WOULD PROBABLY BE DONE BY A E S NOW.

UM, BUT REALLY THE SOUTHERN AREA IS WHAT WE'RE MOST, UH, I'M MOST CONCERNED ABOUT, BUT YEAH.

WE'VE BEEN REQUIRING THAT FOR, FOR MOST OF OUR DEVELOPERS.

NOW,

[01:05:01]

UH, ONE FINAL QUESTION.

I KNOW WE'RE NOT AT THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT, UH, STAGE YET, BUT COULD YOU JUST SPEAK, UH, TO, UM, UH, OUR RESIDENTS CONCERN THERE ABOUT, UH, LIGHTING METRICS AND, UH, SPILLOVER UNDER RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES? JUST A GENERAL OVERVIEW SO THAT YOU GET AN IDEA OF, UH, HOW THE, HOW THE CITY WILL ADDRESS THAT DURING THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN? YEAH, SO, WE'LL, AS PART OF THE SUBMISSION, UM, THE APPLICANT WILL SUBMIT A, A PHOTO, UM, PHOTOMETRIC PLAN THAT, THAT SHOWS THE, UH, THE, THE ILLUMINATION FROM THE VARIOUS PARKING LOT LIGHTS.

UH, OUR CODE DOESN'T REQUIRE, UH, OR DOESN'T ALLOW LIGHT TRESPASS.

UM, SO AT THE VERY MINIMUM, WE WOULD REQUIRE THE WESTERN SIDES OF THE POLES TO BE SHIELDED SO THAT THERE IS NO GLARE INTO, UH, ANY OF THE RESIDENTS, UH, BACKYARDS.

UH, OUR CODE LIMITS THE HEIGHTS TO 25 FEET AS FAR AS THE POLE HEIGHT.

UM, SO THERE WILL BE VERY, WE WILL ENSURE THAT THERE IS, UH, NO LIGHT TRESPASS, UH, ONTO THE WEST PROPERTY.

THAT THAT IS A ROUTINE, UM, REVIEW THAT WE DO.

AND DOES THAT, UH, ANSWER YOUR QUESTION ABOUT LIGHT SPILLOVER? YES.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

NEXT I'D ASK IF THERE'S ANYONE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK AGAINST THE APPROVAL OF THIS ISSUE.

AND NEXT IS WHERE WE WOULD CALL ON MEMBERS OF HE RIDES CITY COUNCIL TO MAKE ANY COMMENTS OR PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

I THINK WE'VE WORKED THROUGH THAT PRETTY WELL, ACTUALLY.

MAYOR? YES.

CAN I ASK TWO QUESTIONS? MM-HMM.

OF AARON OR TREVOR? MM-HMM.

SO CAN WE GO BACK TO ONE OF THE UNIT INTERIOR PICTURES? THERE'S A RED BOX ON THE WALL, AND I JUST DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS.

GARAGE DOOR OPENER.

THERE WAS A GARAGE DOOR OPENER THERE.

? YEAH, I CAN SPEAK TO THAT BOX.

SO IT WOULD BE A GARAGE DOOR OPENER.

UM, BASICALLY YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE'S SOME, THERE'S SOME SEATS THERE, THERE BEHIND THERE, THERE'S ANOTHER KITCHEN COUNTER.

THE KITCHEN COUNTER OPENS UP TO BE LIKE A, A INDOOR OUTDOOR SERVING AREA.

AND THEN, UM, CAN WE GO TO THE SLIDE THAT HAS THE STREET PARKING, THE PUBLIC STREET PARKING? IS IT WIDE ENOUGH TO HAVE TWO PARALLEL CARS ON LIKE ONE LEFT AND RIGHT? AND THERE'S ROOM FOR TWO CARS TO PASS? YES.

BOY, HIS SHORT, SHORT PURSE AND COULDN'T REACH THAT GARAGE DOOR OPENER.

LET'S ONE HAVE REMOTES.

SO I'D ASK ONE LAST TIME IF THERE'S ANYONE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO BE IN FAVOR OF OR AGAINST THE APPROVAL OF THIS ISSUE.

11 C, ITEM 11 C, A PUBLIC HEARING SCHEDULED FOR OCTOBER 9TH, 2023 OF THE HUBER HEIGHT CITY COUNCIL FOR CASE RZ, B D P 23 DASH 24, THE APPLICANT ISYS LIMITED LIMITED.

SO, BARRING ANY FURTHER COMMENTS, THE PUBLIC HEARING BY CITY COUNCIL FOR CASE B D P 23 DASH 23 IS NOW CLOSED.

AND NEXT WE HAVE ITEM

[ A Public Hearing Scheduled For October 9, 2023, By The Huber Heights City Council For Case RZ BDP 23-24. The Applicant Is Buc-ee's, Ltd. The Applicant Is Requesting Approval Of A Rezoning Of Approximately 3.93 Acres From Agricultural (A), Commercial (B-3) And Planned Public (PP) To Planned Commercial (PC) For Properties Identified As Parcel Numbers P70 03903 0046, P70 03903 0048, P70 03903 0052, And P70 03903 0076 And A Basic Development Plan For Approximately 38.56 Acres For The Property Located At The Northeast Corner Of Interstate 70 And State Route 235 Intersection And Further Identified As Parcel Numbers P70 03903 0048, P70 03903 0052, P70 03903 0079, And P70 03903 0006 On The Montgomery County Auditor’s Map.]

THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING APPROVAL OF A REZONING OF APPROXIMATELY 3.93 ACRES FROM AGRICULTURAL A, COMMERCIAL B THREE, AND PLAN PUBLIC PP TO PLAN COMMERCIAL PC FOR PROPERTIES IDENTIFIED AS PARCEL NUMBERS P 7 0 0 3 9 0 3 0 0 4 6 P 7 3 9, 3 8 P 7 3 9, 3 2, AND P 7 3 9 6.

AND THE BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR APPROXIMATELY 38.56 ACRES FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF INTERSTATE 70 AND STATE ROUTE 2 35 INTERSECTION AND FURTHER IDENTIFIED AS PARCEL NUMBERS P 7 0 0 3 93, 8 P 7 0 0 3 9 3 5 2 P 7 0 0 3 9 3 0 0 7 9, AND P 7 0 0 3 9 3 0 0 6 ON THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY AUDITOR'S MAP.

THAT WAS MOUTHFUL.

IT WAS, I'M NOT GONNA REREAD ALL THAT.

NO .

I'LL KEEP, I'LL KEEP, I'LL KEEP THIS SHORT.

YEAH, TOO BAD.

, TOO.

SO, THE PUBLIC HEARING IS SCHEDULED FOR OCTOBER 9TH, 2023 BY THE RIGHTS CITY COUNCIL FOR CASE RZ.

B D P 23 DASH 24 IS NOW OPEN AND I WOULD CALL ON CITY STAFF TO MAKE THE INITIAL PRESENTATION.

AARON.

SQUARE FOOT CONVENIENCE STORE WITH 120 FUELING PUMPS IN 24 ELECTRIC CHARGING, UH, VEHICLE STATIONS.

SO THE SITE IN QUESTION IS JUST OVER 40 ACRES, UH, CURRENTLY ZONED, LARGELY PLANNED COMMERCIAL, BUT THERE'S ALSO PLANNED PUBLIC BUILDINGS, B THREE AND AGRICULTURE, UH, ALL OF THE LANDS, UH, IT'S EITHER THE LANDS ARE EITHER, UH, AGRICULTURE OR, UH, VACANT FORMER COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS.

UM, SO THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A 74,000

[01:10:01]

UM, THE REZONING ONLY APPLIES TO 3.9 ACRES OF THE, OF THE LAND.

UH, AND THE BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN APPLIES TO 38.58 BECAUSE TWO PARCELS HAVE DEEDED RESTRICTIONS THAT PROHIBIT, UH, ESSENTIALLY CONVENIENCE STORES.

UH, SO THE AREA THAT WE ARE ZONING IS, UH, IS HERE.

IT'S THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF, UH, 2 35 AND 70 EFFECTIVELY.

UM, AND IT WILL BE THIS ENTIRETY OF THE 40 ACRES, UM, WHICH WILL ALL BE PLANNED COMMERCIAL.

THE BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN IS ALL OF THAT AREA, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL AND THIS LITTLE TAIL, UH, ON THE, ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE EXISTING, UH, DETENTION POND.

UH, SO IT IS A LARGE SITE.

UM, THIS IS THE, THE SITE PLAN RIGHT NOW.

UM, THE, THE TRAFFIC, THE VAST MAJORITY OF, UH, CUSTOMERS WILL ENTER OFF OF, UH, 70 ONTO 2 35, EITHER NORTH, UH, EASTBOUND OR WESTBOUND.

UM, THE TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE DESIGNED AT THE MOMENT ARE, UM, BASICALLY ADDING TWO, OR ADDING ANOTHER LANE ON THE, UH, EAST, THE WESTBOUND, UH, EXIT.

SO YOU WOULD HAVE ESSENTIALLY A FIVE LANE SECTION OF 2 35.

UH, ONE OF THESE, THERE'S IS REALLY A DEDICATED BUCKY'S LANE, UM, WHICH WOULD GO, UH, EITHER TO THIS FIRST, UH, ENTRANCE, UM, THAT IS ROUGHLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM, UH, ARTS OR CONTINUE ON TO, UH, THE INTERSECTION AT SEVEN, UH, CENTER POINT 70, UH, AND THEN THE MAIN VEHICLES EXITING WOULD EXIT AT THE CENTER POINT 70, UH, EXCHANGE AND HEAD, UH, SOUTH TOWARDS, UH, 70, I 70, UH, AND EITHER GO EAST OR WEST OR FURTHER SOUTH.

UM, BUT THE, UH, THIS IS THE, THE CONVENIENCE STORE BUILDING.

UM, I ALWAYS KIND OF ZOOM IN THROUGH HERE.

UM, WELL, ONE OTHER THING.

WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF, UH, WORKING WITH, WITH BUCKY'S AND THE ENGINEERS ON THE PLACEMENT OF A LIFT STATION.

UH, SO THAT LIFT STATION WILL BE KIND OF RIGHT HERE, UH, RIGHT AT THE FIRST ENTRANCE.

UH, THIS IS THE ELEVATIONS, UH, A MIXTURE OF, UH, STONE VENEER AND, AND, UH, AN ETHOS.

UM, SO THIS WOULD BE THE MAIN ELEVATION, UH, LOOKING, THIS IS THE WEST ELEVATION.

SO AS YOU DRIVE INTO THAT FIRST ENTRANCE, THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE GONNA SEE AS FAR AS THE BUILDING FACADE.

UH, THE TOP PICTURE IS THE SOUTH, UH, SOUTH FACADE.

SO THIS IS KIND OF WHAT YOU WOULD SEE AS YOU'RE, UH, DRIVING, UH, OFF THE, UH, EXIT HEADED, UH, HEADED WEST.

AND THEN THE NORTH FACADE IS THE BOTTOM, UH, ELEVATION.

UM, I MENTIONED THE TRAFFIC, UH, IMPROVEMENTS, UH, THERE, THE BUCKY'S, UH, AND KIMLEY-HORN, WHICH IS THE ENGINEERING FIRM IS WORKING HAND IN HAND WITH ODOT.

THEY WERE ENGAGED WITH ODOT BEFORE THEY WERE ENGAGED WITH US, UM, ON, ON THIS, UM, THIS DEVELOPMENT.

SO THEY'RE STILL WORKING OUT THE PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS, UH, ALONG 2 35.

BUT I'LL JUST ZOOM INTO CERTAIN PARTS OF THE SITE PLAN.

UH, SO THERE'S SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE, UH, SPACING THAT IS ALONG THE PERIMETER OF THE, UH, THE BUILDING.

THIS IS THE FRONT, THE MAIN FRONT ENTRANCE, UH, AS OF NOW.

UM, AND I DON'T SEE THIS CHANGING ALL OF THE PARKING SPACES, UH, MEET OUR, UM, REQUIREMENTS AS FAR AS SIZE.

UH, BUCKY'S IS KNOWN FOR NOT BEING NECESSARILY, UM, SEMI-TRUCK FRIENDLY.

UH, BUT THERE ARE RV UH, SPACES, UH, HERE ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE SITE.

UM, THERE IS, UH, A LANDSCAPING, UM, UH, PLANTING ROWS, UH, PRETTY MUCH EVERY OTHER, UH, PARKING, UM, AISLE.

SO THE WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED IS A, IT'S A PRETTY WELL LANDSCAPED, UM, UH, SITE, WHICH, WHICH HELPS, UM, SOFTEN, UM, A DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SIZE, UH, AS YOU HEAD.

UH, THIS WOULD BE THE NORTH, UH, ELEVATION.

SO ALL OF THE ELECTRIC CHARGING VEHICLE STATIONS, UH, ARE, ARE RIGHT ALONG HERE.

UM, SO AS IT'S DESIGNED, UH, YOU WOULD HAVE TWO ENTRANCES OR TWO ENTRANCE, UH, AISLES COMING IN OFF OF CENTER POINT 70.

YOU ALSO HAVE TWO, UH, OR THREE EXITING.

'CAUSE THERE ARE EXIT ENTRANCE AND EXITS, UH, ON THE REAR.

UM, THERE IS, I'LL CALL IT THE, THE DEDICATED, THE, THE BUCKY'S LANE.

THIS IS YOUR, YOUR MAIN, I THINK WILL BE THE MAIN ENTRANCE, UH, PARTICULARLY FOR ANYBODY HEADING.

UM, WELL REALLY ANYBODY HEADING OFF OF THE WESTBOUND, UM, 70 LANE WOULD, WOULD ENTER INTO HERE.

UH, THIS IS THAT PARCEL THAT HAS A DEEDED RESTRICTION, WHICH IS WHY IT'S NOTCHED OUT AS PART OF THE BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

UM, CENTER POINT 70.

THIS INTERSECTION WILL BE, UH, VASTLY IMPROVED.

UM,

[01:15:01]

IT WILL BE SIGNIFICANTLY LARGER THAN, THAN WHAT IT IS, UH, NOW ONCE THE IMPROVEMENTS ARE DONE.

SO YOU HAVE, UM, BASICALLY ONE MAIN LANE, TWO LANES IN, REALLY.

ONE, UH, FROM NORTHBOUND TRAFFIC, PROBABLY A LESSER USED LANE FOR SOUTHBOUND TRAFFIC.

UM, THE EXIT, THERE ARE TWO EXIT LANES, UH, THAT TAKE YOU BACK ONTO 2 35 TO THE SOUTH.

90%, 95% OF THE TRAFFIC WILL HEAD, HEAD SOUTH, UM, AS, AS CURRENTLY ENVISIONED.

UH, AND THEN THE FUELING TANKS ARE, ARE, ARE RIGHT HERE.

THE INITIAL LANDSCAPE PLAN THAT WAS SUBMITTED IS PRETTY, UH, PRETTY DENSE.

THERE'S A, A LOT OF PERIMETER VEGETATION THAT IS, UH, ALONG THE SITE AS WELL AS, UH, LANDSCAPING IN ALL IN MOST OF THE, UM, UH, PARKING AISLES.

UM, WE DO NOT ENVISION HAVING SIDEWALKS ON 2 35.

THERE'S NONE THERE.

THERE'S REALLY NONE ANYWHERE, UH, IN THIS, THIS WHOLE AREA.

SO WE WON'T HAVE TRADITIONAL STREET TREES PER SE, BUT WE WILL WORK WITH OUR LANDSCAPE DESIGNERS TO SOFTEN, UH, THE ENTRANCE, UM, AND, AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S AN ATTRACTIVE, UM, DESTINATION, UH, AND ANY GATEWAY INTO THE COMMUNITY.

SO YOU CAN SEE JUST, UH, SOME OF THE INITIAL PLANTING, UH, PLANTINGS THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED.

SO, AS FAR AS OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, UM, THIS AREA IS THE WORK CENTER, UM, WHICH, UH, IS DESIGNED, UH, TO, YOU KNOW, WE'RE TRYING TO, TO LEVERAGE OUR ASSETS, UH, WHICH ARE EITHER, UH, I 70 PROXIMITY TO, UH, RIGHT PATTERSON AND AIR FORCE BASE.

UM, IN THIS PARTICULAR, UH, AREA I 70 IS THE KEY ASSET, UM, WHICH IS WHY YOU HAVE ALL THE LOGISTICS COMPANIES.

UM, IN THIS AREA, BUCKY'S IS GONNA EMPLOY APPROXIMATELY 200, UH, INDIVIDUALS.

AND I'VE SAID THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES.

UM, IT IS NOT A NORMAL CONVENIENCE STORE.

THIS IS A, THIS IS A TRAFFIC, UH, GENERATOR.

IT'S A DESTINATION FOR TRAVELERS AND NOT NECESSARILY JUST PEOPLE WHO ARE CASUALLY PASSING BY.

UM, TRAFFIC IS A DISCUSSION IN THIS COMMUNITY QUITE OFTEN.

AND AS FAR AS THIS SITE, THERE IS NO BETTER LOCATION FOR A, A BUCKY'S OR A, A DESTINATION ATTRACTION SUCH AS THIS, THAN THIS NORTHEAST CORNER OFF OF, UH, 2 35 AND 70.

UH, IT'S GOT GREAT ACCESS IN, IT'S GOT EASE OF ACCESS, UH, OUT, UH, AND WILL INCONVENIENCE.

UH, THE LEASE, UH, AMOUNT OF, OF PEOPLE IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE AROUND HERE IS REALLY DESIGNED TO HANDLE, HANDLE THIS.

SO, THE BORING PART, AS FAR AS CONFORMANCE WITH THE ZONING REGULATIONS, THE PROPOSED, UH, USES ARE PRINCIPALLY PERMITTED IN THE PLANNED COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.

UH, THE SITE PLAN MEETS ALL PARKING, UH, SETBACKS, ALL YARD SETBACK REQUIREMENTS.

UM, OUR INITIAL REVIEW IS THAT 31 STREET TREES ARE REQUIRED.

I SAID THAT, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT A TRADITIONAL STREET LANDSCAPE.

UM, THE PLAN MEETS, UH, THE INITIAL PLAN MEETS ALL OF THESE REQUIREMENTS, BUT WILL BE REVIEWED MORE THOROUGHLY DURING THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN PROCESS.

UH, THE PLAN MEETS ALL OF THE PARKING REQUIREMENTS.

THERE ARE 699 SPACES THAT ARE ILLUSTRATED.

OUR CODE REQUIRES APPROXIMATELY 600 BASED ON A CONVENIENCE STORE THIS SIZE, AND THE NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES.

UM, NO SIGN PACKAGE WAS SUBMITTED, BUT THAT WILL BE REVIEWED AS PART OF THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN, WHICH AGAIN, IS, UH, NOT UNCOMMON AS FAR AS THE BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN ANALYSIS AND OUR STANDARDS OF APPROVAL.

THERE ARE 12 STANDARDS THAT NEED TO BE MET.

UM, I WILL BRIEFLY TALK ABOUT SOME OF THEM.

I'M NOT GONNA HIT ALL OF THEM.

UH, I'LL TALK ABOUT THE ONE.

THEY ALL, THEY MEET ALL OF OUR STANDARDS.

UM, SOME ARE MORE IMPORTANT TO DISCUSS THAN, THAN OTHERS.

UM, THE ITEM NUMBER C, OR STANDARD NUMBER C IS PROBABLY THE MOST, UH, IMPORTANT AS PART OF, OF THIS PROJECT.

UM, AND THAT'S WHETHER IT IS ACCESSIBLE FROM PUBLIC ROADS THAT HAVE ADEQUATE CAPACITY TO CARRY THE TRAFFIC.

UM, SO THE, THE INITIAL, UM, TRIP GENERATION THAT, UH, AND TRIP COUNTS THAT WERE SUBMITTED TO ODOT, UM, AND, AND HAVE BEEN SUBSEQUENTLY CERTIFIED, UH, IS MY UNDERSTANDING TALKING TO THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER, IS THAT, UH, AT PEAK HOUR, THIS WILL GENERATE ABOUT A THOUSAND, UH, TRIPS, UH, IN THE MORNING AND 1500 IN THE EVENING, WHICH IS NOT, UH, IN UNSUBSTANTIAL.

UH, SO ODOT AND KIMLEY HORN AND, AND BUCKY'S ARE WORKING THROUGH THE TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENT, UM, PLANS RIGHT NOW.

UM, AND WE ANTICIPATE RECEIVING THOSE PRETTY, PRETTY SOON.

BUT THE INITIAL, UH, 2 35 IMPROVEMENTS ARE DESIGNED TO HANDLE ALL OF ALL OF THIS TRAFFIC.

UM, THE DISTRIBUTION, UM, YOU CAN SEE HERE ON THIS TABLE THAT, UH, AS FAR AS NORTHBOUND, UH, 2 35, UM, LESS THAN, UH, ONE AROUND 1% OF

[01:20:01]

THE TRAFFIC THAT'S GENERATED IS EXPECTED TO GO NORTHBOUND.

UM, SO WE DON'T SEE, UH, A SIGNIFICANT, UM, INCONVENIENCE FOR THOSE RESIDENTS BUSINESSES THAT ARE, THAT ARE NORTH OF CENTER POINT 70.

THERE'S REALLY NO REASON TO GO NORTH ON 2 35 UNLESS YOU LIVE THERE OR YOU'RE GOING TO INDIAN LAKE.

IF YOU'RE GOING WANTING TO GO NORTH OR NORTHEAST, IT'S FASTER TO GO EITHER, YOU KNOW, ROUTE FORWARD TO OVER 33 OR 75.

SO WE DON'T SEE PEOPLE NECESSARILY HEADING UP TO 35 TO 40 UNLESS THEY'RE AVOIDING AN ACCIDENT ON 70, WHICH, YOU KNOW, IS ALWAYS A POSSIBILITY.

OCCASIONALLY, UM, I'LL JUST, WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE, UH, ANY UNDUE BURDENS WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT ON, ON PUBLIC, UH, PUBLIC UTILITIES, UH, OR PUBLIC SERVICES.

UH, ALL CONDITIONS THAT ARE A RESULT OF THIS REZONING WILL BE MEMORIALIZED IN OUR P U D LEGISLATION AND WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT AND LESS MODIFIED BY EITHER THE PLANNING COMMISSION OR ULTIMATELY THIS CITY COUNCIL.

UM, AS FAR AS LANDSCAPING AND ARRANGEMENTS OF THE STRUCTURES, PARKING AREAS, WALKS, ET CETERA, UH, WE THINK THAT THIS PLAN IS GENERALLY WELL ARRANGED.

UH, THIS IS A BIG USER, IT'S A BIG SITE, UM, FROM, UH, OUR INITIAL REVIEW, THE INTERNAL CIRCULATION IS EFFICIENT AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE INTENDED USE.

ALL OF THE, UH, RADIUSES, UH, FIT, UH, OR WORK WELL WITH OUR, UM, UH, FIRE APPARATUS.

SO THERE'S NO, UH, ISSUES AS FAR AS TURNING RADIUSES INTERNALLY.

UH, AND THEN THE ENTRANCES ON CENTER POINT, AND THEN ALSO ACROSS SOME ARTS WILL BE DESIGNED A APPROPRIATELY, UH, ITEM G.

THE LAST ONE IS ABOUT PRESERVING NATURAL FEATURES SUCH AS WATERCOURSE TREES AND ROCK OUT CROPS.

THERE REALLY ARE NO NATURAL FEATURES ON THIS LAND.

UH, IT'S BEEN FARMED FOR A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME.

UH, THERE ARE SOME PERIMETER TREES WHICH, UH, WILL LIKELY REMAIN.

AND WE WILL ASK, UH, THE, THE APPLICANT TO AGAIN, LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, ASSESS ONE, WHICH ONES ARE ON THEIR PROPERTY, AND WHICH ONES ARE HEALTHY, AND KEEP THOSE, UH, TO THE BEST OF THEIR ABILITY AND REMOVE THE ONES THAT ARE DEAD OR DYING.

UM, AS FAR AS ITEMS J AND K, UM, NOT CREATING ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE PUBLIC COST FOR PUBLIC FACILITIES, UH, THE APPLICANT HAS NOT APPROACHED US FOR, UH, REGARDING ANY COSTS OF IMPROVEMENTS ON 2 35.

SO WE DON'T SEE THAT THAT BEING, UH, AN ISSUE.

UH, AND ALL OF THE PROPOSED USES ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE COMMERCIAL, UH, ZONING DISTRICT, UH, THAT'S BEING REQUESTED AS PART OF THIS APPLICATIONS.

UH, AND THEN THE ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS, WE BELIEVE WILL FULLY ACCOMMODATE THE ANTICIPATED INCREASE IN TRAFFIC.

UH, AND LASTLY, UH, THE REZONING TO THE, UH, SHALL NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT THE PUBLIC HEALTH PIECE, WELFARE, SAFETY, OR MORALS.

STAFF BELIEVES THAT THIS REZONING IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND WILL NOT, UH, ADVERSELY AFFECT SURROUNDING PROPERTIES.

SO STAFF SUPPORTS, UH, THIS REZONING TO PLAN COMMERCIAL, AND IT'S, UH, OUR OPINION THAT SECTION 11 71 0 6 CAN BE MET.

UM, AND WE RECOMMEND THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS, ONE, THAT THE APPLICANT ASSESS THE HEALTH OF THE, THE TREES ALONG THAT SITE'S PERIMETER, AND THAT GETS INCORPORATED INTO THE LANDSCAPING PLAN, UH, TWO THAT THE STAFF WORK WITH, UH, OR THE, THE DEVELOPER WORK WITH STAFF TO, TO DETERMINE THE FINAL, UH, STREET TREE PLACEMENT DURING THAT, UH, DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN PHASE.

THAT SIGNS SHALL INFORM WITH CHAPTER 1189, UNLESS OTHERWISE, UM, UNLESS OTHERWISE APPROVED BY THE, UH, PLANNING COMMISSION THROUGH THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

UH, AND THEN THE PERMITTED USE SHALL BE THOSE LISTED IN SECTION 11 76 0 1, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FOLLOWING, UM, VEHICLE SALES, RENTAL SERVICE SWEEPSTAKES, CAFE, SHORT-TERM LENDERS, DRY CLEANERS, OR OUTDOOR SALES AND STORAGE, AND LESS APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

SO ONE RESIDENT, THE PLANNING COMMISSION SPOKE IN FAVOR OF THE PROJECT.

UM, I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE LAND OWNER WHO OWNS THE FARM TO THE EAST, UM, WHO IS NOT OPPOSED TO THE PROJECT, BUT IS, UH, HAS SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT ACCESS OF THEIR LANE TO GET TO THEIR, UH, TO GET TO THE FARMLAND, AS WELL AS, UH, STORM WATER, UH, RUNOFF ISSUES.

UH, SO I'LL BE WORKING WITH, WITH HER TO ADDRESS, UH, ADDRESS THOSE NEEDS.

BUT, UM, WE DON'T ANTICIPATE ANY, UM, ADVERSE IM, UH, IMPACT TO THE, THE FARM FIELD TO THE EAST.

UH, AND AS PART OF THIS TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS, UH, ON CENTER POINT 70 AND 2 35, WE, WE'LL CERTAINLY MAKE SURE THAT THE ACCESS, UH, FOR THEIR, UH, THEIR FARM LANE AND, AND E INGRESS AND EGRESS ARE, ARE MAINTAINED.

AND, AND WE WILL WORK WITH THEM TO ADDRESS THOSE CONCERNS ABOUT MAKING SURE THEY CAN GET THEIR IMPLEMENTS BACK THERE.

OKAY, THANKS, AARON.

[01:25:03]

SO I KNOW WE HAVE, UH, THERE WERE SOME REPRESENTATIVES FROM BUCKYS HERE THIS EVENING, SO IF THEY'D LIKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO, TO, UH, COME TO THE PODIUM AND SPEAK, UH, AND THERE'LL BE A TIME IF THEY HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND PROVIDE IF THEY'D LIKE TO.

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR.

EVENING COUNCIL MEMBERS, ANDY SHAW, KIMLEY-HORN REPRESENTING BUCKYS.

UM, I THINK EVERYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE SAID HAS BEEN SAID.

UH, IF THERE ARE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS, BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE OR BRING UP SOME FOLKS, UH, FROM THE BUCKY'S TEAM WHO ARE HERE TO, TO ANSWER THOSE SPECIFIC, UH, OWNER OPERATOR TYPE QUESTIONS.

UH, SO THANK YOU.

AND WE WILL WORK THROUGH THE, UH, AGAIN, KIND OF SYSTEM OUT TO THE PUBLIC HEARING, AND THEN THOSE QUESTIONS ARISE.

WE'LL KNOW THAT YOU'RE HERE.

SO THANK YOU.

UH, NEXT I'D CALL THE LAW DIRECTOR TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS OR ANY INFORMATION.

NO ADDITIONAL COMMENTS, MR. MAYOR.

THANK YOU, .

SO, NEXT I'D ASK IF THERE'S ANYONE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF APPROVAL OF THIS PARTICULAR ZONING ISSUE? GOOD EVENING, PAUL SCHAFER, HUBER HEIGHTS AGAIN.

UM, SO I HAD THE, UH, GOOD FORTUNE TO BE ON A TRIP THIS LAST WEEK.

UH, I WENT DOWN TO BILOXI, MISSISSIPPI AND GOT TO STOP AT A BUCKYS DOWN IN, IN ALABAMA.

UM, ACTUALLY STOPPED ON THE WAY DOWN ON THE WAY BACK, MY FIRST EXPERIENCE.

UM, GREAT PLACE.

LOVE IT.

UM, IT, IT, THERE'S NO, NO, I CAN HONESTLY SAY NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT.

IT IS, UM, IT IS THE WALMART OF CONVENIENCE STORES.

IT IS, IT IS HUGE.

120 GAS PUMPS, ALL KINDS OF PARKING SPOTS.

UM, THE ONE THING I WOULD ASK THE CITY STAFF, UM, WOULD BE TO VALIDATE THAT THERE'S NO IMPACT ON POLICE AND FIRE.

BOTH STOPS WHILE I WAS THERE, THERE WERE EMERGENCY VEHICLES THERE.

UH, ONE WAS THERE TO, UH, ASSIST IN A MEDICAL SITUATION WITH SOMEBODY THAT WAS THERE FOR AN RV.

UH, ANOTHER ONE WAS POLICE WERE THERE.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WERE THERE FOR, BUT, UM, I, I, I GUESS ANYTHING THAT'S GONNA ATTRACT THAT SIZE OF A COMMUNITY OF PEOPLE COMING AND GOING, I, I, I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT THERE'S GONNA BE SOME IMPACT ON, UH, EMERGENCY SERVICES.

AND SO I, I WOULD CHALLENGE THE STAFF TO VALIDATE THE NUMBERS THAT THEY, OR THE STATEMENT THAT THERE'S NO IMPACT.

BUT OTHER THAN THAT, I, I THINK I'M IN FULL SUPPORT.

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THIS PARTICULAR ZONING ISSUE? OKAY.

IS THERE ONE PRESIDENT WISHES TO SPEAK AGAINST THE APPROVAL OF THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE? OKAY.

NEXT, I'D CALL MEMBERS OF THE RIGHTS CITY COUNCIL TO MAKE ANY COMMENTS OR TO PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, IF YOU HAVE ANY.

ONE LAST TIME, I'D ASK IF THERE'S ANYONE, UH, PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF OR AGAINST THE APPROVAL OF THIS ISSUE.

ITEM 11 D, ITEM 11 D A PUBLIC HEARING SCHEDULED FOR OCTOBER 9TH, 2023, BY THE HUBER HEIGHTS CITY COUNCIL FOR CASE RZ, B D P 22 DASH 35.

SO BEFORE WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING, I, I DID HAVE, UH, A COMMENT.

SO I KNOW, UH, WHEN WE HAVE A, A BIG PROJECT LIKE THIS, I THINK, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO, I WANNA GO BACK 'CAUSE I DO WANNA THANK THIS COUNCIL.

UM, YOU KNOW, IT WAS PROBABLY SOMETIME, MAYBE A YEAR AND A HALF AGO OR SO THAT, UM, WE MADE THE DECISION TO EXPAND OUR WATER INFRASTRUCTURE AND OUR SEWER INFRASTRUCTURE UP IN THAT AREA OF 2 35 AND 70, AND EXPAND THAT DOWN AND TIE INTO OUR FAIRBORNE, UH, NEIGHBORS WASTEWATER PLANT.

AND I THINK THAT WAS, YOU KNOW, LOOKING BACK, I THINK OF THE REASON THAT THIS COUNCIL MADE THAT DECISION TO SPEND THAT MONEY TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES IN INVESTMENT INFRASTRUCTURE WAS TO BE ABLE TO ATTRACT BUSINESSES SUCH AS THIS, UH, WE NEED WATER AND YOU NEED SEWER IN ORDER TO ATTRACT BUSINESSES.

AND I KNOW WE HAD, UH, LOTS OF DISCUSSIONS SURROUNDING THAT SOME OF THOSE FUNDS WERE SPENT WERE ARPA MONEY.

AND SO I JUST, I KNOW THAT WE HAD SOME, SOME PUBLIC PUSHBACK AT THE TIME, UH, REGARDING, UH, ADVICE AGAINST SPENDING AND INVESTING THAT MONEY IN THAT AREA.

UH, BUT I DO JUST WANT TO, TO MAKE NOTE THAT, UM, I THINK THAT WAS A GREAT DECISION.

I WANNA THANK COUNSEL FOR THEIR FORESIGHT AND VISION IN BEING ABLE TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS, UH, TO EXPAND OUR INFRASTRUCTURE IN THAT AREA, WHICH I THINK PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE WHEN WE LOOK AT BUSINESSES SUCH AS THIS, WHO WANNA INVEST IN HEBREW RIGHTS AND, AND COME TO THIS COMMUNITY.

SO, I, I, UH, WOULD BE REMISS IF I DIDN'T MAKE THAT STATEMENT.

SO, BARRING ANY FURTHER COMMENTS, THE PUBLIC HEARING BY CITY COUNCIL FOR CASE RZ, B D P 23 DASH 24 IS NOW CLOSED.

[01:30:10]

AND NEXT WE HAVE

[ A Public Hearing Scheduled For October 09, 2023, By The Huber Heights City Council For Case RZ BDP 22-35. The Applicant Is Thomas Dusa. The Applicant Is Requesting Approval Of A Rezoning From Commercial (B-3) To Planned Industrial (PI) And To Approve A Basic Development Plan For Property Located At Technology Boulevard and Artz Road And Further Described As Parcel Number P70 03903 0007 On The Montgomery County Auditor's Map.]

THE APPLICANT IS THOMAS DUSA.

THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING APPROVAL OF A REZONING FROM COMMERCIAL B THREE TO PLANNED INDUSTRIAL PI, AND TO APPROVE A BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT TECHNOLOGY BOULEVARD IN ARTS ROAD, AND FURTHER DESCRIBED AS PARCEL NUMBER P 7 0 3 9 3 0 0 7 ON THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY AUDITOR'S MAP.

THANK YOU, KAREN.

SO, THE PUBLIC HEARING SCHEDULED FOR OCTOBER 9TH, 2023 BY THE RIGHTS CITY COUNCIL FOR CASE RZ 22 DASH 35 IS NOW OPEN, AND I WOULD CALL ON OUR CITY STAFF, AARON, TO MAKE THE INITIAL PRESENTATION THIS EVENING.

OKAY, SO THE, UH, WE'RE NOW ACROSS THE STREET FROM, UH, FROM THE PREVIOUS CASE.

SO THE, UH, SITE IS 3.3 ACRES.

UH, IT'S CURRENTLY ZONED B THREE, IT'S VACANT LAND, UH, PRETTY MUCH SURROUNDED BY I ONE AND NOW, UH, AND ALSO PLAN COMMERCIAL.

UH, THEY ARE THE APPLICANT'S REQUESTING A REZONING TO PLAN INDUSTRIAL TO FACILITATE THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 30 SPACE, UH, TRUCK PARKING, UH, AREA, ALONG WITH A, UH, 4,500, UH, 4,500 SQUARE FOOT REPAIR SHOP.

SO THIS IS THE SITE AT THE 2 35 IN ARTS.

UH, THIS CASE HAS BEEN, UH, BEFORE, UH, THIS BODY AS WELL AS PLANNING COMMISSION, UH, A COUPLE TIMES.

SO IT'S BEEN, UH, REVIEWED, UH, REALLY STARTING SINCE JANUARY.

UM, HERE'S THE LIST OF OF THE MEETINGS, COUNSEL.

WE'RE MAN THE CASE BACK TO PLANNING COMMISSION TO CONSIDER A FACILITY, UH, WITH MORE TRUCK PARKING SPACES AND A MORE REFINED OPERATIONS PLAN.

SO THIS REVISED PLAN INDICATES 30 TRUCK PARKING SPACES, UH, THE MAINTENANCE FACILITY AND THE AMOUNT OF AUTO, UH, PARKING ARE UNCHANGED.

SO JUST, UH, KIND OF TO GO BACK ON THROUGH THE TIMELINE AND THE QUESTIONS THAT WERE RAISED, UH, IN JANUARY, THERE WAS QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW THIS FACILITY OF THIS TYPE DIFFERS FROM A TRADITIONAL TRUCK STOPS.

THERE WAS CONCERN EXPRESSED ABOUT OVERNIGHT SLEEPING, AND THOSE ADDITION, THOSE ISSUES THAT ARISE FROM OR CAN ARISE FROM TRADITIONAL, UH, TRUCK STOPS.

UM, SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THIS COUNCIL WERE CLEAR THEY DIDN'T WANNA SEE OVERNIGHT SLEEPING.

UM, AND THEN, UH, THERE WAS A DESIRE TO SEE THE SITE BE ATTRACTIVE AND SECURE.

UH, AND THEN THE IDEA OF, UH, OF, FOR A BETTER DEFINED OPERATIONS PLAN, UH, WAS REQUESTED THAT WOULD OUTLINE HOW THE FACILITY WOULD BE STAFFED, ADVERTISED, AND THEN, UM, ACCESS BE CONTROLLED.

SO THE APPLICANT PROVIDED, UH, RESPONSES, UH, TO THIS, TO THESE QUESTIONS IN LATE FEBRUARY.

IN APRIL, UH, WE HAD A WORK SESSION PUBLIC HEARING ON A SMALLER VERSION.

UH, THERE WERE ADDITIONAL CONCERNS ABOUT PARKING, EASE AND FLOW, UM, WHICH REALLY LED TO THE LARGER SITE PLAN THAT'S BEFORE US.

NOW.

UH, QUESTIONS ABOUT HOURS OF OPERATION AND ACCESSIBILITY.

UH, MAINLY CONCERNS THAT IF THERE LIMITED OPERATING HOURS WOULD REDUCE OR LIMIT THE, THE USEFULNESS EFFECTIVELY OF, OF THIS TYPE OF FACILITY TO, UM, TRUCK OWNER OPERATORS HERE IN THE CITY.

UH, AND COUNSEL AGAIN REQUESTED ADDITIONAL DETAILS REGARDING FACILITY OPERATIONS, PARTICULARLY ADVERTISING ACCESS CONTROL, UH, AND THEN CONCERNS ABOUT OVERFLOW PARKING ON, UH, SPECIFICALLY ON TECHNOLOGY BOULEVARD.

SO THE APPLICANT PROVIDED, UH, RESPONSES ON APRIL 15TH, UM, OVERNIGHT STAY WAS MENTIONED AS ONE OF THE POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO SOLVING THE LIMITED, UH, UH, OPERATING HOURS.

UM, THE APRIL 23RD WORK SESSION, THERE WAS SOME SUPPORT FOR THE LARGER SITE PLAN.

AGAIN, CONCERNS WERE EXPRESSED THEN ABOUT THE OVERNIGHT STAY.

THAT WAS, THAT WAS BROUGHT UP.

THE APPLICANT RESPONDED THAT THE OVERNIGHT STAY WAS REALLY A SOLUTION TO TRY TO ADDRESS THE LIMITING OPERATING HOURS, BUT EFFECTIVELY WOULD, WOULD ABIDE BY WHATEVER, UH, THE CITY WANTS, UH, WANTS THEM TO DO ON MAY 8TH.

UH, THIS COUNCIL REMANDED THE PLANNING COMMISSION TO CONSIDER A LARGER SITE PLAN.

SO THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE TODAY.

SO THIS IS THE LARGER SITE PLAN.

UH, IT'S EXPANDED FROM, UH, 12 TO 30 TRUCK, UH, PARKING SPACES.

THE, UH, THE MAINTENANCE FACILITY REMAINS UNCHANGED.

THESE WERE THE INITIAL, UH, RENDERINGS PRESENTED, THE PLANNING COMMISSION, KIND OF THE BEGINNING OF THIS PROCESS OF, OF THE FACILITY.

UH, THE APPLICANT DOES FEEL THAT THERE'S A NEED TO, FOR SUPPORT SERVICES, UH, FOR TRUCKERS WHO HAVE MAXIMIZED THEIR, UH, ON-ROAD HOURS AND MUST REST.

UM, THE PARKING AVAILABLE PARKING AREA WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR DRIVERS TO PARK, BUT THEN, UM,

[01:35:01]

REST OFFSITE, WHICH WAS ALWAYS THE, WHICH WAS THE INTENDED, UM, THE, THE INTENDED, UH, OPERATION FROM THE, FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.

SO, UH, AS FAR AS THE REZONING ANALYSIS, THIS APPLICATION CAME UNDER OUR OLD, UM, UH, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WHICH CALLED FOR THE, THE SITE TO BE, UH, A GATEWAY OR GROWTH AREA.

UH, GATEWAYS ARE THOSE THAT ARE ONE OF, THAT ARE PROMINENT ENTRANCES INTO THE CITY, UH, SHOULD BE DESIGNED.

ATTRACTIVELY AND GROWTH AREAS ARE THOSE LOCATIONS WHERE THE CITY IS, UH, UH, ADVOCATING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT SHOULD BE DISCOURAGED.

UM, SO THE REZONES FROM STAFF'S PERSPECTIVE, THE REZONING REQUEST FROM B THREE TO PLAIN INDUSTRIAL COULD BE CONSISTENT WITH THAT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

UM, WHAT WE DIDN'T WANT TO SEE AND WHAT WE, THE REASON THE MAINTENANCE FACILITY WAS INJECTED INTO THIS PLAN WAS WE DIDN'T FEEL THAT JUST HAVING A TRUCK PARKING LOT WAS CONSISTENT WITH THE, UH, WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

UH, WE WANTED TO SEE ADDITIONAL SUPPORT SERVICES FOR, UH, THE DRIVERS, WHICH IS WHY THE MAINTENANCE FACILITY, UM, WAS, WAS DEVELOPED.

UH, AS FAR AS CONFORMANCE WITH THE ZONING REGULATIONS, THE PROPOSED USES ARE PERMITTED IN THE PLANNED INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT.

UH, THERE ARE STREET TREES THAT ARE INDICATED ALONG TECHNOLOGY BOULEVARD, UH, AND ARTS AS ARE REQUIRED.

THE BUILDING SETBACKS ARE APPROPRIATE.

UH, THE PROPOSED BUILDING AT THE MOMENT HAS A 30, HAS A FACADE WITH 30% MASONRY MATERIALS.

I'LL GET TO THAT IN A MINUTE.

UM, AND THEN THE APPLICANT HAS INDICATED THEY'LL MEET ALL REQUIREMENTS OF THE ZONING CODE, INCLUDING CHAPTERS 11 81, 11 82, AND 1185.

SO THE STAFF RECOMMENDED THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS.

UH, IF THE PLANNING COMMISSION FELT THE PROPOSAL WAS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, ONE THAT THE APPLICANT APPLY, COMPLY WITH ALL PROVISIONS OF THE VAR ZONING CODE, THAT ALL PARKING AND LOADING AREAS SHALL BE ASPHALT OR CONCRETE, WE DIDN'T WANNA SEE, UH, CHIPS AND SEAL.

UH, THE APPLICANT SHALL SUBMIT A PHASING PLAN FOR CONSIDERATION BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION AS PART OF THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

FOURTH, THAT NO ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING PARKING, STORAGE, OR SITE IMPROVEMENTS SHALL OCCUR UNTIL A DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN IS APPROVED.

THE BUILDING CONSTRUCTED IN A ZONING CERTIFICATE ISSUED, THERE WAS CONCERNS THAT, UH, THERE WAS CONCERNS EXPRESSED BY, WELL, ME, UH, AND ALSO PLANNING COMMISSION THAT YOU, THEY, THERE WOULD BE A POTENTIAL FOR THE PARKING LOT TO BE BUILT, BUT NEVER SEE AN ACTUAL BUILDING CONSTRUCTED.

AND SO THAT WAS WHERE THIS, UH, CONDITION CAME FROM.

UH, THE PLANNING COMMISSION ADDED, UH, THE NEXT COUPLE THROUGHOUT THE VARIOUS, UH, ITERATIONS, ONE THAT THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING SHALL BE A HUNDRED PERCENT MASONRY UNLESS OTHERWISE APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION THROUGH THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

AND THEN LASTLY, WE ADDED THIS FINAL CONDITION OF NO STAYING OR SLEEPING BY DRIVERS OR OTHER CUSTOMERS SHALL BE PERMITTED.

UH, ONE NEARBY BUSINESS OWNER EXPRESSED CONCERNS REGARDING TRAFFIC, UM, AND PARTICULARLY TRAFFIC AND, UH, ACCESS ONTO ARTS AND ALSO, UM, OVERFLOW PARKING.

YOU RECEIVED AN EMAIL, UH, I BELIEVE FROM THE SAME BUSINESS OWNER, UM, EXPRESSED THAT CONCERN.

UM, PLANNING COMMISSION VOTED THREE TO TWO TO RECOMMEND DENIAL OF THE REZONING AND BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

UH, THE, THE CONVERSATION REALLY KIND OF REVOLVED AROUND THE, THE SAME ISSUES, UH, MEMBERS DIDN'T FEEL A TRUCK STOP WAS APPROPRIATE AT THIS LOCATION.

UH, AND THEN, UH, A NUMBER EXPRESSED CONCERNS ABOUT, UH, ONSITE SLEEPING.

SO QUESTIONS FOR ME? OKAY.

SO WE WILL GET KIND OF THROUGH THE, UH, THROUGH THE PUBLIC HEARING PROCESS, AARON.

AND WE'LL GIVE EVERYONE THE OPPORTUNITY TO, TO ASK ANY, UH, ANY PERTINENT QUESTIONS THEY MIGHT HAVE.

SO I KNOW, UH, I BELIEVE MR. DUCES HERE THIS EVENING.

SO, UM, I WOULD JUST WANNA GIVE HIM THE OPPORTUNITY IF HE HAS ANYTHING ELSE HE WOULD LIKE TO, UH, ADD OR PROVIDE, UH, TO COUNSEL AT THIS PARTICULAR TIME BEFORE AS WE MOVE THROUGH THE PUBLIC HEARING PROCESS.

OWNER TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE.

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL EVENING, SIR.

UH, TOM DUSA, HALEY DUSA ENGINEER FOR THE, FOR THE SITE APPLICANT, AGAIN, WAS NOT ABLE TO MAKE IT TONIGHT.

UM, WE, IT'S BEEN A LONG PROCESS TO GET THE, JUST TO THIS POINT.

AND I THINK IT'S, AARON HAS PRETTY MUCH EXPLAINED WHERE WE ARE.

UM, I GUESS I JUST WANT TO EMPHASIZE, UH, WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO, WHAT WE'RE REQUESTING.

UM, THERE, THERE WAS AN IDEA BY THE

[01:40:01]

AND THEN OVER TIME, UM, WE WERE GIVEN SOME SUGGESTIONS BY STARTING WITH, WITH AARON AND THEN ALSO GOING THROUGH PLANNING, AND THEN ALSO GOING THROUGH CITY COUNCIL.

AND WE'VE, WE'VE, UM, WE'VE UNDERSTOOD THOSE REQUESTS AND TRIED TO, TO MEET THEM.

AND SOMETIMES, OR AT SOME POINT THERE BETWEEN HERE AND PLANNING BY HONORING ONE, WE GOT CRITICIZED BY THE OTHER AND VICE VERSA.

AND SO WE'RE KIND OF IN A, IN A SITUATION HERE THAT I'M NOT SURE WHAT MORE WE CAN OFFER, EXCEPT WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A GOOD IDEA, WOULD'VE BEEN A, WAS A GOOD IDEA WHEN IT WAS, I GUESS, UH, BROUGHT TO US ORIGINALLY WAS THAT WE TURNED IT INTO A, UM, A PLAN UNIT.

AND, AND WHAT THAT DOES IS IT GIVES, UM, COUNSEL OR PLANNING THE ABILITY TO, TO, UM, CONTROL WHAT WE ACTUALLY DO THERE.

AND, AND YOU GUYS CAN HAVE THE SAY AND PUT ALL THESE THINGS UP THERE AS COMPARED TO JUST FOLLOWING WHAT'S THERE WITH THE B THREE AND, AND PUTTING IN SOMETHING THAT WAS A PERMITTED USE.

NOW GRANTED, WE PROBABLY COULDN'T DO WHAT WE WANTED TO DO.

WE'D HAVE TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

BUT I, I GUESS THAT'S WHERE WE ARE WITH THIS.

UM, I'M OPEN TO WHATEVER QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT WANT TO ASK ME.

UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THEY, THEY CRITICIZED US FOR OR MADE MORE COMMENTS ON WAS WHEN WE WERE ASKED ON, UM, ABOUT THE TRUCKERS AND BEING ABLE TO COME WHENEVER THEY WANT WHEN WE'RE CLOSED.

THAT'S, IS THAT GONNA BE A PROBLEM? SO IN THAT PROBLEM, AND WHEN I GAVE YOU GUYS THE, THE IDEA OF HOW THE, UM, THE COMPANY, THE, THE PLAN, UM, I HAD JUST MADE THE SUGGESTION THAT, WELL, IF WE NEED TO STAY OPEN 24 HOURS, WE CAN, UM, IF AS LONG AS WE HAVE THE HAVE SOMEBODY THERE, AND WE DON'T NEED TO DO THAT.

BUT I JUST BROUGHT THAT UP AS A SOLUTION TO HELP YOUR GUYS' QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT.

UM, OUR, OUR ORIGINAL PLAN IS STILL THERE THAT WE WOULD ASK THEM TO LEAVE AND, UM, AND, UM, WHATEVER'S THERE, AND IT WOULD BE ON THEIR, UH, SECURITY AND A LOCKED GATE AND CONTROL WHO COMES IN AND WHO DOESN'T GO COME IN.

UM, SO WE, WE DIDN'T INTEND TO TURN IT INTO A TRUCK STOP.

WE WERE WELL AWARE A LONG TIME AGO THAT, AND WE DON'T THINK IT'S A TRUCK STOP AS FAR AS THE WHAT I, WHAT I WOULD'VE STILL THOUGHT HIS DEFINITION OF IT WAS, BUT, AND SO IF BY TAKING THAT OUT ABOUT OFFERING, THE THOUGHT WAS MAYBE WE TO PROVIDE MORE INCOME.

WE COULD, UH, LET THEM STAY IN THEIR TRUCKS, BUT THEY'D BE UNDER A CONTRACT AGREEMENT THAT IF THEY BROKE THE CONTRACT, BRING PEOPLE IN, GET OUTTA HAND, WHATEVER.

THEY'D BE ASKED TO LEAVE WITH THAT WITHOUT ANYTHING COMING BACK.

BUT, UH, WE, THAT WOULD NEVER BE PART OF IT IF YOU GUYS MADE THAT STIPULATION.

AND THAT'S WHERE THE PLAN UNIT PART COMES IN.

SO THAT'S WHERE I'M AT.

I'M OPEN FOR, FOR QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO ASK.

AND OKAY, THANK YOU.

UH, NEXT I'D ASK ON, UH, THE LAW DIRECTOR TO HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS, UH, OR ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE AT THIS POINT.

ADDITIONAL COMMENT.

NEXT, I'D ASK IF THERE'S ANYONE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THE APPROVAL OF THIS ISSUE THIS EVENING.

NEXT I'D ASK IS THERE ANYONE PRESENT WHO WISHES TO SPEAK AGAINST THE APPROVAL OF THIS ISSUE THIS EVENING? OKAY, NEXT, I'LL CALL ON MEMBERS OF THE HEBREW RIGHTS CITY COUNCIL TO MAKE ANY COMMENTS OR TO PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE AT THIS TIME.

RICHARD.

UH, AARON, QUICK QUESTION.

UM, WITHIN THE PAST 12 MONTHS, UM, DO YOU KNOW OF ANY OTHER FACILITIES NEW DEVELOPMENT THAT'S BEEN PASSED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION, UH, THAT HAS REQUESTED A HUNDRED PERCENT MASONRY? NOT THAT COMES TO MIND.

TWO YEARS NOW YOU'RE STARTING TO PREDATE ME.

UM, BUT UH, AS FAR AS INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS, UH, NO, THE CODE SUGGESTS 30% MASONRY.

UM, BUT UH, TO MY KNOWLEDGE WE HAVE NOT REQUIRED A HUNDRED PERCENT ON ANY INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS.

UM, BUT AGAIN, I COULD BE WRONG.

THANK YOU MAYOR.

ANYONE ELSE FROM COUNSEL HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OR ANY OTHER COMMENTS THEY'D LIKE TO PROVIDE?

[12. City Official Reports And Comments]

OFFICIAL REPORTS AND COMMENTS THIS EVENING? NANCY? YES.

UH, FIRST OF ALL, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK, UM, CINDY AND SCOTT DAVIDSON FOR, AGAIN, PULLING OFF A PHENOMENAL HUBER HUNT'S, UH, COMMUNITY EVENT.

THIS WEEKEND, UH, IS BIGGER THAN IT EVER WAS.

THE TURNOUT WAS TREMENDOUS.

UH, THE KIDS WERE INTO IT, WHICH IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT.

UH, THE STORES BENEFITED BECAUSE PEOPLE WERE HERE.

UM, AND, AND, UH, IF NOTHING ELSE, KROGER BENEFITED BECAUSE PEOPLE RAN OUTTA CANDY AND THEY HAD TO RUN OUT AND GET MORE.

BUT IT WAS A PHENOMENAL, PHENOMENAL EVENT.

AND, AND I THANK YOU BOTH VERY MUCH.

UM, ON ANOTHER ISSUE, NOT SO POSITIVE.

I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED AT SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT WERE VOTED DOWN TONIGHT.

ONE OF THEM DEALING WITH MANPOWER IN ORDER TO COLLECT OUR TAXES AND TO, UH, PROMOTE OUR FINANCES.

UM, AND ALSO FOR OUR JANITORIAL SERVICES.

TO ME, THERE IS NO GOOD REASON WHY THAT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN PASSED, EXCEPT FOR SHEER NASTINESS.

THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY.

NOBODY'S PUNISHING THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.

ANY OTHER COMMENTS? ED? THANK YOU, MAYOR.

UM, SEVERAL OF THE VOTES, UH, THAT I HAD TONIGHT, UH, THAT WERE NO, UM, THE PRIORITY IS PUBLIC SAFETY.

WE HAVE A PUBLIC SAFETY LEVY ON THE BALLOT IN NOVEMBER, AND THE PUNISHMENT OF COUNCIL TOWARDS, UH, THE HUBER HEIGHTS FIRE DEPART OR POLICE DEPARTMENT, EXCUSE ME, UM, HAS BEEN ONGOING.

AND THIS COUNCIL VOTED DOWN, UH, FOUR ADDITIONAL POLICE OFFICERS AND HAVE DELAYED THAT, UH, THE HIRING PROCESS OF SOME OF THE OTHER ONES LIKE THEY HAVE PREVIOUSLY WITH THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

SO UNTIL THIS COUNCIL, UH, CONSIDERS FOCUSING THEIR PRIORITIES ON SUPPORTING THE POLICE OFFICERS, THEN I WILL CONTINUE TO, UH, VOTE NO ON MORE TRIVIAL AND FRIVOLOUS ISSUES WHEN IT COMES TO OUR PUBLIC SAFETY.

YOU'RE GONNA PICK UP THE TRASH.

WHAT'D YOU SAY, COUNSEL? YOU'RE GONNA PICK UP THE TRASH.

SINCE WE DIDN'T RENEW OUR JANITORIAL CON CONTRACT, APPARENTLY, UM, PUNISHING THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IS MORE IMPORTANT.

WE, WE HAVE NOT, NOT PUNISHED A POLICE DEPARTMENT.

IT WASN'T YOU.

THAT'S ENOUGH.

BUT IT WAS SOMEBODY ON COUNSEL STILL HAVEN'T HEARD WHO, ED, WE ED.

WELL, WE THINK IT'S YOU.

I'M A IN THE MINORITY.

IF I COULD GET IT DONE, I'D GET IT DONE.

THERE'S NO WAY I COULD DO THAT WITHOUT ENOUGH COUNCIL VOTES.

SO MAYOR, THAT MEANS YOU'RE SUPPORTING, UH, THE PERSON WHO IS, WHICH I BELIEVE IS MARK CAMPBELL.

NOT AT ALL.

SO I DON'T THINK IT'S ANY SURPRISE OR SECRET, AND THAT'S JUST THE WAY POINT OF ORDER IT IS.

MARK CAMPBELL'S SUPPORTED PUBLIC SAFETY IN THIS COMMUNITY SINCE IT'S FOUNDING.

AND ED, I THINK YOU AS ALL PEOPLE, UH, KNOW THAT HE SUPPORTED A LOT.

SO WE WILL NOT DEALING WITH THIS.

THERE'S NO WAY.

MARK CAMPBELL ALLOWS SOMEBODY TO PUNISH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.

NO ONE, FIVE POLICE OFFICERS THAT HAVEN'T BEEN FILLED.

THEY WERE FILLED BY COUNSEL AS FAR AS FUNDING, AND THEY HAVEN'T BEEN FILLED IN YEARS.

THERE'S NO WAY THAT HAPPENS.

THEY EXPLAIN, EXPLAIN THE REASONS WHY.

AND THE HUBER HEIGHTS TWO STEP IS STILL ALIVE AND WELL.

OH, AND YOU ARE THE FIRST STEP.

DON, THANK YOU.

IF WE CAN WALK AWAY FROM THE IDIOCY FOR A MOMENT.

I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO SOMETHING THAT WAS VERY IMPORTANT THAT

[02:00:01]

HAPPENED TONIGHT, AND THAT WAS TO THANK JENNIFER, UH, CORCORAN TONIGHT.

THE ISSUE THAT JENNIFER BROUGHT FORWARD ABOUT ADULT CHANGING STATIONS MAY SEEM LIKE SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T AFFECT A LOT OF PEOPLE.

I SPOKE TO MS. CORCORAN PRIOR TO THIS MEETING TONIGHT AND MAY I SHARED A CONVERSATION THAT YOU AND I HAD.

AND THAT IS THAT UNTIL YOU KNOW ABOUT A PROBLEM, YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT A PROBLEM, JENNIFER HAS BROUGHT FORTH AN ISSUE THAT AFFECTS A GREAT MANY PEOPLE.

AND BECAUSE OF THAT, THE CITY IS MAKING POSITIVE CHANGES THAT ARE GONNA IMPACT THOSE PEOPLE'S LIVES IN, IN A VERY, VERY BENEFICIAL WAY.

TO GO EVEN FURTHER ON THAT, JENNIFER AND I SPOKE THAT THERE ARE ISSUES THAT WE AS A COUNCIL STILL DON'T KNOW ABOUT.

THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES WITH DISABILITIES AND OTHER ISSUES WITH PEOPLE TRYING TO GET THROUGH THEIR DAILY LIVES THAT HAVEN'T COME FORWARD.

I, I APPLAUD JENNIFER FOR CHAMPIONING THIS.

I WANNA GIVE YOU A A LITTLE ASIDE IN THAT I WENT TO THE TIP CITY MUM FESTIVAL AND AT THE TIP CITY MUM FESTIVAL, WHEN I WENT OVER TO THE, UM, REST, REST AREA, THE REST FACILITIES, THERE WAS A SIGN THAT POINTED PEOPLE TO AN ADULT CHANGING STATION SPONSORED BY CHANGING, UH, SPACES.

THE SIMPLEST THING IN THE WORLD.

IT WAS A POP-UP TENT THAT HAD AN ELEVATED CHANGING STATION WITHIN IT.

AND ALL OF THE THINGS NECESSARY FOR A PERSON LIKE JENNIFER TO BE ABLE TO GO IN THERE AND USE THOSE FACILITIES.

IN OTHER WORDS, THE PEOPLE WHO WERE AFFECTED BY THAT COULD WALK INTO THAT PARK THAT DAY AND BE A PART OF THAT CELEBRATION WITHOUT THE ISSUES THAT JENNIFER'S BROUGHT UP ABOUT HAVING A CONVENIENT, CHANGING SPACE.

SO I WANTED TO APPLAUD COUNCIL TONIGHT ON OUR MOVEMENT TOWARDS MAKING A POSITIVE IMPACT IN THOSE PEOPLE'S LIVES.

AND ALSO TO THANK JENNIFER FOR EVERYTHING THAT SHE'S BROUGHT FORWARD FOR US AND TO CHALLENGE OTHER GROUPS AND INTERESTS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY TO COME FORWARD AND LET COUNCIL KNOW WE CAN'T SEE EVERYTHING WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, BUT WHAT'S BEEN BROUGHT FORWARD, WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO MAKE CHANGES ON.

IT'S A GREAT THING, AND I APPLAUD ALL OF COUNSEL FOR THAT.

THANKS, SON.

CAN I ADD TO THAT? YES.

UM, AND THAT BRINGS UP A A REALLY GOOD POINT THAT IF WE ARE GOING TO HOLD FESTIVALS AND THINGS IN THE FUTURE, WE NEED TO HAVE A MOBILE ABSOLUTELY.

TEACHING TABLE.

AND, AND JENNIFER, UH, IS ACTUALLY PART OF THE GROUP THAT MADE THAT HAPPEN.

ALTHOUGH JENNIFER'S GROUP IS MONTGOMERY COUNTY.

THAT WAS A MIAMI COUNTY EVENT, BUT THEY COORDINATED BETWEEN THE TWO GROUPS AND MADE THAT HAPPEN TONIGHT.

WE SPOKE THAT IN CALIFORNIA, THEY'VE GONE SO FAR AS TO ACTUALLY HAVE FULL TRUCKS THAT ARE OUTFITTED, SIMILAR TO WHAT WE WOULD SEE AS A PORTABLE, UM, FULL SERVICE RESTROOM.

BUT THE TRUCKS COME IN AND THEY OFFER LIFT SERVICE SO THAT THE WHEELCHAIRS CAN BE ELEVATED TO THE, TO THE, AND IT'S A FULL FACILITY FOR CHANGING.

IT SAYS LITTLE THINGS, A CHIP AT A TIME THAT ARE MAKING THINGS BETTER FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.

BUT, UH, IN GENERAL, JUST FOR THE PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY TO BE ABLE TO ENJOY NORMAL ACTIVITIES, IT WAS A GREAT JOB BY COUNCIL.

SO YES, KATE, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, DON, FOR SPEAKING ABOUT JENNIFER.

AND THIS IS PART OF OUR DIVERSION, DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION.

WE'RE INCLUDING PEOPLE AND KNOW THAT THAT MATTERS.

ANYONE ELSE? YES, RICHARD.

UM, I HOPE THAT, UH, SITS ON THE MINDS OF MANY OF THESE COUNCIL MEMBERS AND SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT ARE COMING UP MOVING FORWARD ON HOW WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH PROMISES, UH, MADE, HOPEFULLY PROMISES KEPT, UH, WHEN IT COMES TO PUBLIC, UH, SAFETY AND OTHER ITEMS, UH, THAT'S, UH, BEEN MADE, UM, BETWEEN CITY ADMINISTRATION AND COUNCIL MEMBERS SO WE CAN MOVE THE BUSINESS OF THE CITY FORWARD.

UM, COUNCILMAN WEBB.

I, I CERTAINLY DO APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS, UH, REGARDING THAT.

THAT'S, UH, UM, I COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, UH, FOR THAT.

UM, UH, ADDITIONALLY, UM, I, I WOULD LIKE TO, UH, BE THE FIRST ON THIS STATUS TO, UH, PUBLICLY CONGRATULATE, UH, COUNCIL OTTO ON, UH, THE INTRODUCTION AND THE BIRTH OF HIS NEW GRANDDAUGHTER.

UH, TODAY.

UH, HE IS IN COLUMBUS NOW, UH, SPENDING TIME, UH, WITH HIS SON, CHRIS, UM, WIFE, UH, CHRIS'S WIFE, UH, EMILY, UM, AND FAMILY, UH, ENJOYING THAT, UH, A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY.

UM, I'M SURE THERE WILL BE, UH, A PUBLIC POST AND PICTURES TO COME FOR ALL TO SEE.

UM, BUT, UH, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

UM, LONG AWAITED.

I, I, UH, IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I'VE HAD TO WAIT ON A, A BABY TO GET HERE, BUT I SEEM LIKE THAT TOOK FOREVER.

UM, ALSO, I, I DO WANNA SPEAK ON TONIGHT'S, UH, VOTES.

UM, THIS COUNCIL HAS, UH, FOUR COUNCIL MEETINGS LEFT THIS YEAR.

[02:05:01]
