V. PUBLIC HEARINGS  
Case # 31-2024  
A request by Crockett Engineering (agent), on behalf of TKG Storage Mart  
Partners Portfolio, LLC (owners), seeking approval of a Conditional Use Permit  
(CUP) to allow a self-service storage facility over 14-feet in height, located at  
3412 I-70 Drive SE. (This request was tabled at the December 21, 2023 and  
January 18, 2024 Planning Commission meetings to permit revisions to  
the request in regards to the Design Standards and Guidelines of  
Section 29-4.6(c) and the Use-specific Standards of Section 29-3.3(w) of  
the UDC).  
MS. GEUEA JONES: May we have a staff report?  
Staff report was given by Mr. Rusty Palmer of the Planning and Development  
Department. Staff recommends approval of the requested conditional use permit for the  
construction of a self-service storage facility greater than 14 feet in height on the property  
addressed 3412 I-70 Drive SE.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Before we go to questions for staff, if any of my fellow  
Commissioners have had contact with parties to this case outside of a public hearing,  
please disclose so now. Seeing none. Are there questions for staff? If no one else has  
one, I just have a clarification. So the building material exception, is that also a matter  
for BOA, or does approval tonight approve that exception?  
MR. PALMER: So that will be -- that is for your consideration to the extent that it  
would be a condition of your approval. So if what they're showing is -- is adequate to you,  
a straight up approval is probably okay, but if you're not satisfied with that and you see fit  
to add a condition of some further articulation or, you know, whatever you would see fit,  
that can be added as a condition of your approval.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: But the 29-4.6(c) are BOA matters?  
MR. PALMER: Yes.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Okay.  
MR. PALMER: And the -- the -- I'm trying to think back. So that component is a  
part of the section that allows you the authority to kind of add those conditions, and so  
that's kind of where we're at now is --  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Got it. Thank you.  
MR. ZENNER: In the contextual -- it's the contextual based exception.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Right.  
MR. ZENNER: If you feel that it's not necessary, you have the authority to waive the  
-- the general compliance requirements for architectural standards.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Got it. Commissioner MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: Just real quick. The building 100 by 55-ish?  
MR. PALMER: I believe. There -- go all the way back. No, it's not.  
MR. MACMANN: I'll ask Mr. Crockett when he comes up. I just didn't see it.  
MR. PALMER: Yeah. I think -- I think it's around 100 square. Yeah.  
MR. MACMANN: It's not jumping out at me. And one last question. What are  
lighting standards in this situation?]  
MR. PALMER: Just whatever the standard for M-C is. I don't know off the top of my  
head, but it would be similar --  
MR. MACMANN: Mr. Zenner --  
MR. PALMER: -- to the rest of it.  
MR. MACMANN: -- do you know what the standard for M-C is, how tall they can  
be?  
MR. ZENNER: I believe the maximum light standard size is 28 feet. It would be 21  
near adjoining residential.  
MR. MACMANN: Residential.  
MR. ZENNER: So this is going to be in a commercial setting similar to probably  
what will be --  
MR. MACMANN: I was looking around -- it's all -- mostly M-OF around if I'm --  
MR. ZENNER: The hotel being M-C and then the Moser's, which would be to the  
west will be the M-C. M-OF is to the south, so I think we're going to meet the standard  
requirements inward, downward, and would have the foot candle limitations off property.  
MR. MACMANN: The only ones I would be concerned about are the ones, I guess,  
facing, like, towards the hotel. I wouldn't want that room. All right. Thank you, staff, very  
much.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any other questions for staff? Seeing none. We'll open the  
floor to public comment.  
PUBLIC HEARING OPENED  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Please come forward. Name and address for the record.  
Three minutes if you're an individual, six minutes if you are here for a group, including the  
applicant.  
MR. CROCKETT: Madam Chair, members of the Commission, Tim Crockett,  
Crockett Engineering, 1000 West Nifong. Mr. MacMann, to answer your question to start  
off, the building is about 100 by 110 is the rough size -- a footprint of the building just to  
start off with that. So I think Mr. Palmer did a very thorough and good staff report, so I'm  
going to just kind of quickly skim some of my slides here tonight. I think the overview, I  
think you did a job. You know, you're pretty familiar with what we're asking for tonight.  
Again, a conditional use for this specific use. One thing to note is the maximum building  
height in M-C is 45 feet. What we're asking for here, our building, it is a walk-out as Mr. -  
- Mr. Palmer indicated. On the high side or the higher side of the parking lot, it's only  
about 23 feet in height, and on the backside it's 33 feet, so we're not even coming close  
to that 44 -- or excuse me -- that 45-foot height. We're much less than that in an area  
that has quite a few taller buildings. We've got the three-story hotel, we've got a six- or  
seven-story hotel, and some other larger buildings out there, as well. So, you know, you  
kind of see the location here. Here's the zoning map. Obviously, we're not adjacent to  
any residential zoning, so we feel, you know, very -- you know, protected by that. Mr.  
Palmer indicated that we won't see the building from the adjacent right-of-way, and he  
had a schematic that kind of showed where the location of the building would be, but his  
schematic kind of showed that on the front side of the trees. There is a tree line between  
us and I-70 there. So here's our location. You can see that the building itself is going to  
be shielded, for the most part, by -- from the hotel. The hotel is going to screen us from  
adjacent right-of-ways. Yes, it is adjacent to the hotel itself. The larger grocer to the  
west is there and, of course, our existing facility further east. Scanning out just a little  
bit, you can see all the other commercial developments in the area, so we feel that it's in  
character with what's already out there. Again, you've seen these depictions. Again, it  
walks out from one side to the other, from 23 to 33 feet in height. Another depiction  
there. The green arrow points to where our building is going to be located, so you can  
see that it's behind the hotel, screened from view. Here's the -- on Keene Street. It's --  
again, you can see it's screened. We've got trees that will give it some buffer, as well as  
the existing buildings. Use specific standards, I think Mr. Palmer went through all those.  
I'm happy to answer any questions with regards to those. I believe we are in  
conformance with those. This project has been tabled several times. It started back in  
December, the first time it had come before this Commission in December; however, it  
was tabled for the purpose of going back and making revisions and working with City staff  
to come up with a plan that had those different building materials in the locations that  
might be visible from the public view, and so that was the reason for the tabling. We have  
been working with staff for some time now to get those standards -- get those revisions  
made so we can be in conformance with those standards. So again, you know, we  
believe it's consistent with the allowed uses with existing zoning. It's consistent with the  
specified use standards, promotes an increase in density around an already existing  
infrastructure, the infrastructure is there for it. It's compatible and it comes to you with  
support from City staff. So with that, I'm happy to answer any questions that the  
Commission may have.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Are there any questions for this speaker? Seeing none. I  
have a quick question. So you're putting tiny bits of brick on here, but the rest of it is still  
sheet metal?  
MR. CROCKETT: Yes. That's basically the plan, yes, ma'am. Because it doesn't  
have any, really, view from any -- any adjacent areas. It's kind of secluded back in the  
back corner of the existing site. The metal is going to match the existing facility, the  
materials on the existing --  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Yeah. I've seen the existing facility.  
MR. CROCKETT: Sure.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: And how does that put you in compliance?  
MR. CROCKETT: When we -- talking with City staff, what is it’s -- the intent is so  
that it is an aesthetic, pleasing building from the point of view from where you can see it  
from the -- from public rights-of-way. And so those locations and where it's visible from  
public rights-of-way, those are the locations in which on that back corner is where we  
have put the brick material.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: But that's not what it says. It says the -- the exterior shall be  
constructed entirely of --  
MR. CROCKETT: We understand that.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Okay. And you said you were -- you made changes to put in  
compliance with the USS -- you did not do that.  
MR. CROCKETT: Yeah. We have made changes working with City staff to make  
changes to the proposal that's before you tonight. I may have misled you, and I  
apologize for that.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: That -- right. I just wanted to make it clear that you're not --  
you're still asking for that exception.  
MR. CROCKETT: Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. I apologize if I'm -- if something is  
misunderstood, I apologize.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: I'm sure what you meant was you were in compliance with  
what the staff asked you to do.  
MR. CROCKETT: We worked together to come up with a plan that's -- yes, not  
compliance entirely with the regulation, and this is what's before you tonight. Yes,  
ma'am.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Okay. Thank you. Anybody else? Seeing none. Thank you  
very much. Anyone else from the public to speak on this case? Seeing none.  
PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any Commissioner comments? Commissioner MacMann.  
MR. MACMANN: This is -- as this is a CUP, and if we agree that the exterior plan as  
presented is sufficient, I think it is in everyone's interest if we would include that in our  
motion. I mean, I've got the impression from you, Mr. Palmer, and if I got that wrong that  
we didn't need to, but I think we need to.  
MR. PALMER: Yeah. That's up to you.  
MR. MACMANN: All right.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: I would agree with that. Any other Commissioner comments?  
I will say just as -- for me, if this were not three stories tall, I might be okay with allowing  
it to be 90 percent galvanized metal siding. As it is, I've seen how that stuff wears. I've  
seen how it looks on their existing facilities. I've seen it in other places. And even if it is  
behind a hotel, it, to me, goes against the use specific standards that we've created for  
this CUP, and I -- I don't think I can vote for that exception. I'm fine with the height, I'm  
just not fine with the exterior. Commissioner MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: Pursuant of that line of reasoning, how would I bring that up? As  
an amendment? We discuss that separately and up and down, and then we've got to put  
it with the rest of it?  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Well, I don't think you even need to do that. We can up and  
down the whole thing. I could be the only person voting no, if I'm the only person --  
MR. MACMANN: Well, I don't know what --  
MS. GEUEA JONES: -- if I’m the only person that feels that way.  
MR. MACMANN: -- everyone else thinks, that's why.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Well, I don't, either. Commissioner Carroll, did I see your  
hand?  
MS. CARROLL: No. I was having technical difficulties.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Okay. No. Okay. Any other comment? Commissioner  
Dunn?  
MR. DUNN: I will just say I think it is a little telling that, like, the hotel didn't come to  
testify in regards to the siding and everything else. You would think that they might have  
some strong opinions about the appearance of a storage facility right next to them. If  
they had genuine concerns, I would imagine they would be here.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: That’s fair. Anyone else? Commissioner Stanton?  
MR. STANTON: I would like to entertain a motion.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Go ahead.  
MR. STANTON: As it relates to Case 31-2024, 3412 I-70 Drive SE, conditional use  
permit, I move to approve the CUP permitted -- permitted as self-service storage facility  
over 14 feet in height.  
MR. MACMANN: Second.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: A motion was made by Commissioner Stanton and seconded  
by Commissioner MacMann. Is there any further discussion on the motion? Seeing  
none. Commissioner Carroll, may we have a roll call?  
Roll Call Vote (Voting "yes" is to recommend approval.) Voting Yes: Mr.  
Dunn, Mr. MacMann, Ms. Carroll, Ms. Placier, Ms. Loe, Mr. Stanton. Voting No:

Case # 91-2024  
A request by A Civil Group (agent), on behalf of Cinnamon Hill, LLC  
(owner), for approval of a PD Plan for Lot 108A of the Crosscreek Center  
C-P Plan to be known as 'Fresh Karma PD Plan'. The PD plan is  
proposing the construction of a 2-story 5,200 square foot commercial  
building and a 1-story 4,500 square foot comprehensive marijuana  
dispensary. Associated with this request are two revisions to the approved  
Statement of Intent (SOI) for Crosscreek Center. The first SOI revision  
seeks to add a “comprehensive marijuana facility” as a permitted use  
development-wide and remove a conflicting restricted use within the  
existing SOI. The second SOI revision seeks to increase allowed on-site  
signage for Lot 108A specifically. The 2-acre subject site is located at the  
north east corner of Stadium Boulevard and Highway 63N, and includes the  
address 1407 Cinnamon Hill Lane.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: May we please have a staff report?  
Staff report was given by Mr. Kiaan Ahamed of the Planning and Development  
Department. Staff recommends that the following recommended actions are to be taken:  
(1) Approve the requested revisions to the 2008 Statement of Intent "permitted use"  
list by inclusion of "comprehensive marijuana dispensary facility" and deletion of "head  
shops and stores selling drug paraphernalia" as well as allowing one (1) additional  
freestanding monument sign on Lot 108A only.  
(2) approve the proposed "Fresh Karma PD Plan" subject to technical corrections.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Thank you. Before we go to questions for staff, if any of my  
fellow Commissioners have had any contact with parties to this case outside of a public  
hearing, please disclosure so now. Seeing none. Questions for staff? Commissioner  
MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: Thank you, Madam Chair. Quick question, you said 75 parking  
places?  
MR. AHAMED: Seventy-five parking spaces along with eight bicycle spaces, so that  
would be 83 total.  
MR. MACMANN: All right. For a 4,000 square foot building.  
MR. ZENNER: And -- and the spec building to the north.  
MR. AHAMED: Uh-huh.  
MR. MACMANN: All right. Fair enough, at the moment. I noticed there on the site  
plan a pressurized sewer service -- sewer line is mentioned. Are they having to pump  
this stuff somewhere?  
MR. ZENNER: It does drain to the -- if I am not incorrect -- to the southeast corner of  
the property, and then it does need to be pumped from the southeast to Cinnamon Hill,  
and likewise, there would be a similar scenario, if I am not incorrect, for the spec building  
that is being proposed.  
MR. MACMANN: Next question. Do we have to pump it again after it comes off --  
are we pumping this?  
MR. ZENNER: No. It is the responsibility --  
MR. MACMANN: That's the sufficient pumpage. I just -- you know, we get -- I'm  
loathed to get involved in pushing someone else's sewage for them -- well by paying for it,  
yeah.  
MR. ZENNER: It is pumped from the southeast corner of the site to our gravity line  
that runs down Cinnamon Hill.  
MR. MACMANN: All right. As long as we're not paying for it. Thank you,  
gentlemen.  
MR. ZENNER: And if I may, if there are additional questions, two motions would be  
warranted here, the first motion being as it relates to the Statement of Intent revisions,  
the second motion being as it relates to the Fresh Karma PD Plan.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any other questions for staff? I have a question. Did either  
the applicant or staff discuss the possibility of turning this into a straight zoning, because  
I believe M-C would allow them. Is it a lot problem or --  
MR. ZENNER: Well, it -- so this is one of the last two lots that are available for  
development -- that are realistically available for development. And no, there was no  
conversation as it related to converting this to a straight zone given that the nature of this  
development has been in plan for everything. The existing site plan that was approved for  
this about a year ago and an amendment to the Statement of Intent at that point for the  
hotel, actually we're returning this to just a little bit larger than the 7,200 square foot  
building that was originally approved. So we're trying to get through this project. There  
was a very lengthy discussion with law as it related to how do we amend the Statement  
of Intent, because so much has occurred out here. And so the approach that we are  
looking at is to retain it as a planned district for the purposes of just being consistent for  
all of the other lots, and then to keep the revision to the Statement of Intent consistent  
with what we have done in the prior Statement of Intent revisions which is isolating the  
paragraphs within the SOI from 2008 and making the changes accordingly. And that is  
how we handled the increase in the development's overall square footage with the hotel,  
and it is how we have handled the introduction of hotels that were previously not clearly  
clarified as well. So we're trying to keep this one as consistent as we have previously as  
much as we know. We would all like to be able to be out of the business of planned  
district. This just seemed a little bit cleaner to keep it this way.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Good answer. I just had to ask.  
MR. ZENNER: I appreciate it.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any other questions for staff? Seeing none.  
PUBLIC HEARING OPENED  
MS. GEUEA JONES: If any members of the public would like to come up, come on  
up. We'll open public hearing.  
MR. GEBHARDT: Good evening. My name is Jay Gebhardt with A Civil Group. I  
have a PowerPoint to talk about the signs, if anyone has questions about that in more  
detail. But to answer your question, Sharon, a little differently than Pat, it was 16 years  
ago when I did the zoning. It was one of the most difficult projects I've ever worked on,  
and the neighbors were intensely involved at that time. And there was promises and  
agreements made through that planned district. So when I came back a year ago and  
was doing the hotel on this site, I did ask about going -- getting rid of it, and everyone felt  
like at the time there was -- is just too much baggage to discard with the M-C that had  
already been discussed and agreed to and that. And, Mike, as far the sewer, that's a  
private pump station that -- and we didn't design the sewer in Cinnamon Hill, but it's only  
four feet deep. There's 22 feet of fall across the site, so there's no sewer on Stadium at  
all down there, so we had to pump it back up -- either that or raise the site, you know,  
extremely to make it drain.  
MR. MACMANN: If I may?  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Are you done?  
MR. GEBHARDT: Yeah. Yeah.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Thank you. Commissioner MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: Thank you. I just want to -- given the issue we've had with other  
neighborhoods and areas that have pumping stations in them and then we're paying for  
them, and people aren’t happy with what we are paying for, I just needed to cover that  
base.  
MR. GEBHARDT: Sure. No problem.  
MR. MACMANN: Thanks.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any other questions? Commissioner Loe?  
MS. LOE: Mr. Gebhardt, just a quick question about accessible route to the  
one-story building. I see that's there's an accessible route from the public sidewalk to the  
two-story building, but I wasn't -- I didn't see it marked or shown really. I couldn't find it  
for the one-story building.  
MR. GEBHARDT: To the public -- to the public way, is what you're --  
MS. LOE: To the public way; correct.  
MR. GEBHARDT: You know, that's a good question, Sara. I -- I don't have the  
answer for that. I think when the construction plans are done, we'll have to address that  
fully for that. I don't know if that's an actual requirement of the PD plan.  
MS. LOE: That's part of the reason, since we're approving a PD plan. Okay.  
MR. GEBHARDT: But I will be held to that standard when I do the construction  
plans.  
MS. LOE: Thank you.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any other questions? Commissioner Placier?  
MS. PLACIER: Yeah. You said or the staff report said that you were unable to  
reach the neighborhood associations. I was looking around and thinking what could that  
be. I guess those two apartment areas?  
MR. GEBHARDT: No, Ms. Placier. So when this was done in 2008, the Shepherd  
Neighborhood Association on to the west of 63 was extremely involved. And then Timber  
Hill above us to the north was extremely involved. And part of that mitigation that I was  
talking about with that is that we're required to notify them. And so we -- when we did the  
hotel a year ago, we -- we reached out and we got no response the first time. The  
second time, one of them responded and said they didn't have any comments. And so  
this time around, we contacted the same group, and we didn't get anything, so -- but we  
did provide documentation to staff that we did, you know try, so --  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Commissioner Carroll?  
MS. CARROLL: Can you talk to me a bit about the parking? How do you get to 83  
spaces again? And --  
MR. GEBHARDT: So the spec building to the north is a two-story building --  
MS. CARROLL: Uh-huh.  
MR. GEBHARDT: -- 5,200 square feet footprint, 10,400 square feet of building.  
And then the dispensary is 4,500 square feet. So when you do the math and the  
minimum requirements, you come up with the 76 required. We've done the 75, plus we're  
allowed to count the bikes toward it, so we've got one of those required spaces is a bike  
space, and then the others are extra, but they're bike spaces, not additional parking  
spaces.  
MS. CARROLL: Okay. Thanks.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Commissioner MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: Just real quick on this -- if you can answer this question, that's  
fine. I'll ask it loud and maybe staff will answer it. Cinnamon Hill and the other one, are  
those HOAs or neighborhood associations; do you know?  
MR. GEBHARDT: Cinnamon Hill --  
MR. MACMANN: That you contacted but --  
MR. GEBHARDT: Oh. Timber Hill? They're neighborhood associations.  
MR. MACMANN: They are neighborhood associations?  
MR. GEBHARDT: Uh-huh.  
MR. MACMANN: Okay. That answers the question for me, actually. Thank you  
very much.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Anyone else? Seeing none. Thank you very much.  
MR. GEBHARDT: Thank you.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any other members of the public to speak on this case?  
Seeing none.  
PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED.  
MS. GEUEA HONES: Is there any Commissioner comment on the case? Seeing  
none. Would someone like to make a motion on the SOI first. Correct? Yes, I'm getting  
a nod.  
MR. MACMANN: That was my question.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Commissioner MacMann, go ahead.  
MR. MACMANN: And the -- just to clarify, I'm going to run this by staff, if you don't  
mind, Madam Chair.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Yes.  
MR. MACMANN: Just to clarify, it would be a motion to approve the SOI revision  
first, then move on to the PD plan?  
MR. ZENNER: That is correct, sir.  
MR. MACMANN: All right. Thank you. In the matter of Karma Plan PD SOI  
revision, I move to approve.

MR. DUNN: Thank you.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any further discussion on the motion?  
MS. CARROLL: Do we need subject to technical corrections on that one?

Case # 110-2024  
A request by the City of Columbia to amend Sections 29-3.3(gg)  
[Use-specific Standards - Accessory Dwelling Units] and 29-4.1(a), Table  
4.1-1 [Dimensional Standards for Residential Districts] of Chapter 29 of  
the City Code (Unified Development Code). The amendments propose  
revisions to the regulation of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and the  
dimensional requirements applicable to single and two-family structures  
within the R-MF (Multiple-family Dwelling) district.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: May we please have a staff report?  
Staff report was given by Mr. Pat Zenner of the Planning and Development  
Department. Staff recommends approval of the proposed text change as presented.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Thank you. Are there any questions for staff? Commissioner  
Loe?  
MS. LOE: Thank you for that presentation, Mr. Zenner. I -- I had a question, but it  
actually goes back to the work session report. In that report, it notes in the language for  
the proposed FAR language that the FAR is tied to the principal structure, meaning  
garage, storage building, and ADU would not count because, and in parentheses, it says  
ADUs are not proposed as being permitted in the medium and small lots. I just -- I  
highlighted that because what we're doing right now actually does permit ADUs in  
medium and small lots. Correct?  
MR. ZENNER: That is a very -- that is a very observant connection, and so we will  
have to make sure that as we discuss that definition of FAR that we come back, we  
circle back around to that as it relates to our small lot standard.  
MS. LOE: All right. Thank you.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Any other questions for staff? Seeing none.  
PUBLIC HEARING OPENED  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Is there anyone here from the public to speak on the ADU  
change? Seeing none.  
PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Is there any Commissioner comment? Commissioner  
MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: I just -- just a comment. I want to thank staff for the work they've  
done on this. I know it hasn't been easy and I know it's taken a while, and I know that, in  
this case, you guys have kind of put a punching bag. So sometimes that's a deserved  
thing and sometimes it's not, and in this case, I don't think it was. I have no other  
comments at this time.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Commissioner Placier?  
MS. PLACIER: Yeah. I just wanted to comment that I was pleased to see a citizen  
and resident of the central neighborhood bring this forward. We don't have that happen  
too often, that someone would bring forward an ordinance revision, and that's something  
that maybe we should encourage once in a while.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Anyone else? Commissioner Stanton?  
MR. STANTON: Yes. That -- To piggyback on my colleague's point, but she had a  
lot of help that -- behind. There was the Housing Coalition that worked. She's an  
architect. She has an ADU. I mean, you know, there was a lot of back -- back-end work,  
and, you know, I'm glad it came together in a concise clear way to us. But, yeah, we do  
need to maybe encourage more coalition-oriented discussion and opinion about what we  
do.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Anyone else? Commissioner Carroll?  
MS. CARROLL: I just wanted to say that I'm very excited to see these amendments  
come forward. In a lot of ways, they go farther than I thought was possible, and I'm  
excited to see that change. By the group that's here tonight, I take that to mean that  
there is quite a bit of support and the perception of ADUs has shifted in our community,  
and I hope that continues to be the case as it goes to Council. I also think that in a lot of  
ways it doesn't go quite as far as I was hoping, and I look forward to the next part of  
these amendments to see what else we think we can do with this type of housing.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Anyone else? Commissioner MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: I'm going to make a motion. And before that, I request of staff and  
I'm saying this so Council can hear this, that we get some input in 12 to 24 months and  
see if we need a carrot to go along with these new opening things. In the matter of Case  
110-2024, Accessory Dwelling Unit, UDC text change to 29-3.3(gg) and 29.4.1(a), and  
Table 4.l-1, I move to approve.  
MR. STANTON: Second.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: An approval has been moved by Commissioner MacMann and  
seconded by Commissioner Stanton. Is there any discussion on the motion? Seeing  
none. Commissioner Carroll, when you're ready, may we have a roll call?  
Roll Call Vote (Voting "yes" is to recommend approval.) Voting Yes: Mr.  
Dunn, Mr. MacMann, Ms. Carroll, Ms. Geuea Jones, Ms. Placier, Ms. Wilson, Ms.  
Loe, Mr. Stanton. Motion carries 8-0.  
MS. CARROLL: We have eight to approve; the motion carries.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Thank you. That recommendation will be forwarded to City  
Council.  
In the matter of Case 110-2024, Accessory Dwelling Unit, UDC text change to  
29-3.3(gg) and 29.4.1(a), and Table 4.l-1, move to approve.  
8 - Loe, Stanton, MacMann, Carroll, Geuea Jones, Placier, Wilson and Dunn  
1 - Ford  
Yes:  
Excused:  
VI. PUBLIC COMMENTS  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Are there any members of the public here to give general  
comments this evening? Seeing none.  
VII. STAFF COMMENTS  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Are there any staff comments?  
MR. ZENNER: So your next meeting will be on Thursday, the 21st of March. For  
some reason I'm thinking spring is somewhere here in the air, so that may be closer to  
the first day of spring maybe. We have a couple of cases that will follow our regular work  
session at 5:30 p.m., which we will be discussing our lot integration project and we'll be  
moving in to the next phase of that dealing with our subdivision-related amendments that  
we will have to be addressing, coming back with the gradation of our ground-floor area, as  
well as, I think, starting to talk a little bit about what we may want in use-specific  
standards. Once we have completed that discussion, we will show up here at 7:00 p.m.  
and you will have these two cases before you. We will have a replat -- or I shouldn't say  
a replat. This is a final plat of partially, if I'm not incorrect, platted property and unplatted  
property at 208 St. Joseph. This is to allow for the legalization of the lot to accommodate  
additional construction of a new dwelling unit on it in order to support a current housing  
agency that operates here in the City. So Rusty will be giving this report. I have -- in the  
back of my mind, I have very little information I recall on this right now, unlike usual, but  
this is a -- it is a -- it requires coming to you even though it’s a final plat, because it has  
not been previously platted. And then the second case that we will have on the agenda is  
a revision -- a major revision and a PD rezoning of property that is duly frontaged. The  
principal frontage of the property and where the PD plan currently is applicable is 90 East  
Leslie Lane. That PD plan would be expanded to include one 107 East Texas Avenue,  
which is the portion of the property that would be rezoned to PD. And this is for Burrell  
Behavioral Health, and the 107 East Texas property is presently zoned M-OF, and they  
would like to have it merged into the PD plan in order to build an additional residential  
building for their client base in order to help deal with their growth. Maps associated with  
these two cases, again, there is our Ash Street -- corner of Ash and St. Joseph. The  
existing building that is there used to be a Boone County Family Resources property, if I  
recall correctly, which has been transferred to another non-profit, who is now wanting to  
consolidate the property to build on the very eastern edge of the highlighted area, which  
has frontage on Ash. That is currently a green space, and they're looking at being able to  
get a new residential building in on this property. And then, of course, our Burrell  
property there, spanning East Leslie Lane all the way down to Texas Avenue. So those  
are your two cases for the 21st meeting. We do have a meeting in April -- we have two  
meetings in April, and the agenda volume will start to pick up a little bit. Right now, we're  
just a little bit in a lull, but we have been still processing countless concept reviews, and  
as we generally find, about 75 percent of our concept reviews turn into real cases, so  
expect to continue to have somewhat of a stream of projects being presented to you here  
over the next several months. That's all we have to offer. Thank you very much for your  
contributions this evening and the direction. We will come back with some new and  
hopefully interesting information for you to start to evaluate as we move forward in our  
next phase of lot integration.  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Thank you.  
VIII. COMMISSIONER COMMENTS  
MS. GEUEA JONES: Are there any Commissioner comments? Commissioner  
MacMann?  
MR. MACMANN: Two things. Once again, I would like to thank all the members of  
the press and members of academia who were here earlier. Mr. Zenner, to answer your  
question, 10:06 p.m. on the 19th, it's a leap year.  
IX. NEXT MEETING DATE - March 21, 2024 @ 7 pm tentative  
X. ADJOURNMENT  
MR. MACMANN: That said, I move to adjourn.  
MR. STANTON: Second.

and seconded by Commissioner Stanton. Without objection, we stand adjourned.  
(Off the record.)  
(The meeting adjourned at 8:20 p.m.)  
Move to adjourn
