D
You
good
afternoon,
madam
president
and
good
afternoon,
members
from
the
city
and
a
special
thank
you
to
brenda
for
her
team.
Getting
me
my
credentials
to
log
on.
D
Councilwoman,
you
may
remember
this
rezoning
discussion
started
years
ago
as
a
way
for
us
to
be
able
to
settle
our
case
with
the
city
of
pittsburgh
for
improvements
that
were
to
be
made
to
banksville
road
and
carnahan
drive
in
terms
of
the
relocation
of
the
bridge.
D
We
had
an
eminent
domain
taking
there
and
worked
out
an
arrangement
with
the
city
that
we
would
be
able
to
relocate
our
billboard
when
we
were
done
in
on
the
same
property
in
a
slightly
different
location
in
order
to
facilitate
the
improvements
and
also
to
save
the
city
from
paying
us.
You
know
the
estimated
just
compensation
that
would
be
required.
Should
the
board
be
taken
down.
D
D
We
received
our
permits
from
the
city,
but
when
we
went
back
to
penndot,
penndot
raised
a
concern
because
a
portion
of
the
property
that
we
are
relocating
in
was
actually
zone
park
as
opposed
to
zone
for
commercial
use.
So
they
put
us
through
going
through
these
hoops
now
to
be
able
to
get
the
zone
change
on
this
portion
of
the
split
zone
piece
in
order
to
essentially
relocate
the
billboard
as
part
of
our
settlement.
D
So
the
first
slide
that
you're
looking
for
is
essentially
just
an
overhead
slide
of
the
tax
map
and
shows
the
entire
parcel,
which
is
you
know,
part
of
of
this
one
block
and
lot
number
along
banksville
road
in
carnahan
road,
if
you
wouldn't
mind
advancing
to
the
next
slide
kevin.
D
This
slide
second
slide
shows
the
existing
zoning
designation
and
the
purple
is
shown
as
ndi,
which
is
our
neighborhood
industrial
and
then
that
small
portion
of
the
green
is
shown
as
park.
Now
what's
unique
about
this
is
this
portion
of
park?
Is,
is
really
along
the
lower
plateau
between
banksville
avenue
and
banksville
road
and
carnahan,
and
is
not
higher
up
on
the
slopes
like
the
rest
of
the
park,
zoning
and
again
we're
proposing
to
rezone
the
entire
slide
to
or
the
entire
site
to
ndi
kevin.
Would
you
mind
advancing
to
the
next
slide
please?
D
So
this
shows
the
existing
designation
again,
a
large
portion
portion
of
the
parcel
is
zoned
ndi
and
the
other
portion
of
the
parcel
is
zone
p
for
parks
kevin.
Can
you
advance
the
next
slide?
Please,
and
what
we're
proposing
to
do
is
shown
on
this
slide
is
make
the
entire
piece
ndi,
which
is
our
neighborhood
industrial,
next
slide
please.
D
So
this
is
the
existing
conditions,
and
I
think
the
important
point
that
we
want
everyone
to
see
is
that
there's
really
nothing
that
can
be
do
done
with
this
property.
There
is
the
channel
that
runs
through.
You
can
see
the
head
wall
and
the
new
bridge
associated
with
the
improvements
and
again
this
is
where
we
had
chosen
to
move
our
billboard
from
and
essentially
relocate
our
billboard
to,
and
you
can
see,
there's
not
a
whole
lot
of
utility
to
this
space.
It
certainly
isn't
park
space
next
slide,
please.
D
This
is
the
same
section
of
the
property,
but
at
this
point
we're
facing
west-
and
this
gives
you
a
little
bit
of
a
better
view
of
the
head
wall-
you
can
see
the
improvements
that
have
been
completed
and
you
know
we're
essentially
looking
to
relocate
the
billboard
on
the
other
side
of
the
guide
rail
in
the
ditch
type
area.
D
This
is
a
view
of
the
existing
property
facing
east
and
again,
you
can
see
from
from
this
view
that
there
are
some
billboards
along
the
street,
but
there's
really
nothing
else
happening
here,
and
this
is
essentially
the
view
that
somebody
would
see
if
they
were
proceeding
east
into
the
city
next
slide.
Please.
D
From
the
existing
topography,
we
just
wanted
to
show
that
the
remaining
portions
of
the
this
property
are
essentially
in
the
flat
or
plateau
level
and
that
the
p
portion-
that's
zoned,
is
essentially
hillside.
So
I'm
not
sure
how
well
you
can
see
it
on
this
slide,
but
the
topographical
conditions
showed
that
all
the
park
pieces
have
significant
slopes
to
them
and
significant
elevation
changes
which
are
different
than
the
lower
plateau,
where
the
ndi
property
currently
sits
and
where
we're
proposing
to
change
the
remaining
portion
of
this
block
and
lot
next
slide.
D
Please-
and
this
is
just
a
site
plan
plot
plan.
This
came
from
the
actual
combination
plans
and,
as
you
can
see,
the
existing
billboard
was
located
a
little
bit
further
down
where
the
bridge
is
now
located
and
we're
essentially
just
slotting
the
billboard
up
after
construction.
So
it
will
be
essentially
in
the
same
place
as
it
was
before,
but
you
know
moved
west
slightly
in
order
to
accommodate
the
improvements
that
have
been
made
next
slide.
Please.
D
And
this
shows
again
the
an
aerial
of
sort
of
where
the
existing
billboard
was
and
where
we're
proposing
to
move
it
to
the
existing
is
closer
to
carnahan
and
where
we're
looking
to
move
it
to
is,
what's
shown
with
the
black
arrow,
that's
depicted
on
your
screen,
you
can
see
we
just
sort
of
slid
it
up
a
little
bit
to
allow
for
those
improvements.
D
So
our
rationale
for
the
rezoning
is
a
couple
points
we'd
like
to
make
for
the
record
first
is
that
it
cures
the
existing
split
zone.
Condition.
As
I
know
it's
well
established
split
zone
property
is
never
really
preferred
because
it
creates
sort
of
disparate
uses
on
a
single
tax,
parcel
or
tract.
D
The
second
rationale
is
the
realignment
of
the
zoning
districts
provides
for
uniformity
within
the
banksville
corridor.
The
remaining
sort
of
pieces
along
this
plateau
of
banksville
avenue
and
banksville
road
are
zoned
ndi.
So
we
think
making
this
piece
or
portion
of
this
piece
to
ndi
makes
it
consistent.
D
Third
rationale
is
from
a
topographical
review.
The
rezoning
of
the
property
is
more
appropriate
for
consistency
with
the
zoning
scheme
and
that
the
plateaus
all
seem
to
be
ndi
with
the
elevated
pieces
being
parked,
and
the
fourth
is,
the
rezoning
of
the
ndi
will
permit
the
applicant
to
reconstruct
the
outdoor
advertising
signage
that
was
removed
in
coordination
with
the
city
and
to
permit
the
redesign
and
reconstruction
of
the
banksville
and
carnival
carnahan
road
bridge
and
intersection.
As
I
said,
this
was
the
settlement
that
was
essentially
agreed
to
with
the
city.
D
D
So
I
think
this
is
our
last
slide,
but
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
anybody
may
have
at
this
point
or
to
you
know,
field
any
questions
that
you
have.
Madam
president,.
A
Thank
you.
I
see
we're
not
joined
by
other
members
at
this
time
so
and
I
have
no
questions.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
doing
your
work
ahead
of
time
and
making
sure
my
staff
and
I
knew
what
was
happening
here
all
along.
So
I
can.
I
can
speak
pretty
comfortably
on
this,
because
my
staff
is
the
all
three
of
them
live
in
banksville
around
this
area,
so
they're
very
familiar.
One
runs
the
community
group
there
and
they've
already
presented
to
the
community
group,
so
I
feel
pretty
comfortable
about
this.
A
So
with
that
said,
we
have
no
other
registered
speakers
correct.
Madam
claire.
A
Do
please
okay,
so
this
is
mars
standing
committee's
agenda
and
you
might
want
to
come
and
be
ready
to
speak
and
present
before.
D
Sure,
council,
that's
is
that
from
a
sign
up
standpoint
brenda
do
I
sign
back
up
with
you
to
do
that
or
how
would
I
do
that
to
make
sure
I'm
yeah.
