Athens Planning Commission - April 15, 2021
A
A
A
C
Yeah.
Thank
you
mayor.
This
is
the
kershaw
green
apartments.
We've
done
some
additional
review
on
the
plans
there.
A
few
additional
minor
comments
from
staff.
The
last
meeting
we
talked
about
whether
what
we
were
going
to
do
with
the
lift
station
and
what
we
we've
been
discussing
with
the
woda
group
about
having
that
meet
the
city,
minimum
requirements
for
sanitary
sewer,
lift
station.
B
C
C
B
C
D
Yes,
sir,
this
is
chuck
garvick
with
chain
engineering,
the
existing
spillway
from
that
smaller
pond
flows
through
the
kershaw
green
site.
It
would
actually
flow
through
the
proposed
building
location.
So,
yes,
you
are
correct.
We
are
relocating
that
that
emergency
spillway
to
the
back
side
of
the
pond
down
to
little
factory
creek.
C
The
two
proposed
ponds
will
be
dry
ponds;
they
they
won't
contain,
they
won't
hold
water
except
during
a
rainstorm,
and
you
typically,
we
typically
wouldn't
want
to
see
fencing
around
that.
That's
gonna,
that
would
be
a
could
be
a
could
be
an
issue
for
those
for
those
ponds,
so
they'll
typically
be
dry
during
normal
weather.
C
B
But
I
yeah,
and
I
I
almost
see
the
fences
if,
if
we
had
fences
around
those
ponds
with
these
two
projects
that
they
could
be
as
much
of
a
a
hazard
with
kids
trying
to
climb
on
them
and
get
over
them
or
you
know
or
whatever,
and
so
it
all.
You
know-
and
I
I
think
the
depth
of
the
pond
is
about
seven
feet,
the
or
not
the
pond,
but
the
detention
basin.
It's
about
a
seven
foot,
difference
fairly,
gradual
slope.
B
E
A
Well,
if
I
may,
let
me
I'd
like
to
share
screen
with
everyone,
because
I
did
get
a
comment
from
planning
commissioner
austin
phillips
on
this
and
I'll
read
as
I'm
showing
you
this,
because
he
he
raised
this
question.
If
you
recall
at
the
last
planning
commission
meeting,
so
I'm
going
to
share
screen
now.
A
And
hopefully
you
are
looking
at
a
pond
of
some
type
with
riprap
around
it
and
he
said
he
wanted
to
add
his
opinion.
There
are
plenty
of
examples
throughout
ohio,
especially
in
golf
course,
communities
where
pawns
exist
without
barriers
based
on
the
project.
The
developer
has
made
it
clear
that
this
is
not
their
property,
which
I
believe
that
to
be
accurate.
That
is
not
part
of
the
parcels.
George.
A
E
You
know
I'm
seriously
concerned
about
the
pond.
I
don't
care
who
owns
it.
I
think
the
city
will
bear
the
responsibility
from
a
lawsuit.
Maybe
I'm
not
a
lawyer,
thank
god,
but
you
know
that's
one
of
the
things
that
I
was
worried
about.
Furthermore,
somebody
we
we'd
I'd
like
to
know
how
many
kids
are
not
going
to
be
in
the
building
hypothetically
and
how
it's
going
to
be
protected.
I
mean
it
started
out
being
a
a
cow
watering
place
and
then
it
graduated
into
this
new
facility.
E
F
A
E
Say
steve
before
we
start
did
the
developer
now
this
I
would
hold
him
responsible,
for
he
was
going
to
tell
us
how
many
children
would
be
hypothetically
in
such
a
development.
Maybe
it's
a
non-problem,
maybe
I'm
just
creating
a
problem
because
the
water's
there,
I
don't
know,
but
could
you
could
you
review
that
for
me?
I
wasn't
here
last
week
or
I
was
here,
but
I
wasn't
here.
E
G
I
mean
go
ahead.
This
is
tom
at
wooda
cooper,
so
I
requested
information
from
the
management
company
and
I'm
going
to
read
you
the
email
they
sent
me
on
advice
of
council.
We
are
not
able
to
speculate
on
the
age
demographic
of
the
resident
population
at
the
developments
because
of
the
provisions
of
fair
housing
laws.
G
E
I
don't
think
I
would
want
them
to
discriminate
at
all.
I
would
just
like
the
children
if
there
are
any
to
be
protected
against
this
thing
in
their
area.
I
live
on
a
road,
that's
very
busy.
It
was
busy
even
when
I
moved
here
and
my
kids
could
never
go
into
the
street
by
the
same
token,
682
and
the
pond
are
a
potential
hazard
for
this
little
girl,
little
girls
and
boys
that
live
there.
E
E
B
For
I
don't
know-
and
I
know
in
the
end
nancy
you're
right
that
probably
if
somebody
were
to
drown
in
that
pond,
a
child
would
have
drowned
in
that
pond.
The
city
would
become
liable.
They
they
certainly
would
be
in
in
a
lawsuit,
but
I
you
know
one.
I
agree
that
that
they,
you
know
they
don't
own
the
pond.
They
can't
do
you
know,
there's
a
you
know
they.
They
can't
do
anything
about
that.
They
can't
do
anything
about
the
traffic
necessarily
I
I
guess
I'm
not
as
concerned
about
it.
E
Don't
think
that
it's
a
problem
for
that
I
can
relate
to
so
much
because
I
got
on
my
bike
and
wrote
in
the
school
grounds,
but
that's
okay,
I'm
concerned
about
maybe
closing
the
johnson
road
exit
and
how
much
more
traffic
will
be
on
this
road
as
access
to
the
high
school
and
no
and
there's
been
no
discussion
of
that
at
all,
not
that
it's
john
simon's
or
woda's
problem.
It's
our
problem,
there's
a
lot
of
stuff
going
on
in
that
area,
a
lot
of
things
that
may
potentially
be
a
problem.
E
A
Let
me
kind
of
at
least
lay
out
my
thought
process
on
this.
You
know
I
I
know
that
the
west
state
street
park
does
not
have
a
fence
all
along
the
park.
Abutting
the
river
to
you
know
the
the
soccer
fields
out
on
east
state
street.
Don't
have
a
fence
along
the
river
to
keep
a
child
chasing
their
soccer
ball
and
slipping
into
the
river
either.
A
A
B
Again,
I
I'm
not
supporting
putting
a
fence
around
it
or
requiring
the
developer
to
do
that,
but
I
did
raise
the
issue
about
them,
having
gotten
permission
to
get
on
the
property
that
is
owned
by
the
by
some
other
entity,
because
they're
moving
the
spillway,
and
that
was
one
of
the
reasons
I
I
brought.
That
up
is
that
they
could
get
permission.
I
and
again,
I'm
not
sitting
here
advocating
for
them
to
do
that,
but
I
don't
know.
B
E
I'm
not
trying
to
plan
as
we
sit
here,
but
I
just
would
like
some
resolution
that
feels
a
little
more
comfortable.
So
I
can
I
mean
I'm
all
for
water
doing
this.
I
just
wish
we
didn't
have
that
cow
pond,
which
became
the
university
of
state's
pond
in
the
same
place,
and
the
big
unknown
about
the
traffic
is
also
there.
A
B
One
more
quick
thing
we
did.
We
did
talk
about
the
traffic
there
and
you
know
I'm
hoping
that
the
city,
the
planner
and
and
in
consultation
with
odot
we'll
continue
to
look
at
that,
because
there
is
a
lot
of
traffic
there,
particularly
at
the
beginning
of
the
day
and
business
day
and
at
the
end
of
the
business
day.
There's
an
awful
lot
of
traffic
in
that
particular
area.
But.
F
John
and
nancy,
to
your
points
about
traffic
in
682
in
the
closing
of
johnson
road,
a
lot
of
us
and
I'll
speak
on
behalf
of
the
regional
planning
commission.
As
chair
of
that
that
body,
we
did
communicate
directly
with
odot
expressing
concerns
about
the
closing
of
johnson
road,
especially
with
the
the
removal
of
the
option
to
turn
right
onto
33
from
johnson
road
to
come
back
into
town.
F
F
We've
asked
for
additional
planning
from
odot
we're
talking
about
state
routes
here,
of
course,
inside
and
outside
the
city
of
athens,
an
unincorporated
town
area
of
the
plains.
They
at
this
point
they
they
are
comfortable
with
the
amount
of
data
that
they've
collected
and
the
study
that
they've
done.
F
There's
a
lot
of
us
that
disagree
with
with
them
on
that,
including
our
city,
our
county,
engineer,
jeff
maiden,
but
at
this
point
they're
moving
forward
with
their
plans
and
they
they
don't
believe
that
there
is
a
significant
or
any
impact.
I
should
say-
and
I
don't
like
I
don't.
I
don't
want
to
speak
on
odot's
behalf,
but
they
don't
believe
that
the
closure
will
significantly
impact
traffic
flows
on
682.
At
this
point
there
will
be
some
changes.
I
agree
with
you
nancy
there.
F
A
A
A
C
Yeah
this
is
the
the
second
development
tyler
park
apartments
on
lurik
road,
this
actually
accesses
on
to
the
township
road.
As
we
talked
last
time,
we
got
approval
through
the
township
to
access
that
parcel
onto
onto
larry
road
and
comments
were
the
same
as
the
last
the
last
one.
We
have
a
few
minor
comments
from
some
of
our
staff.
We
think
those
can
all
be
addressed
easily
by
woeta
group.
A
A
motion
from
mr
katowski
in
a
second
from
chief
pyle,
any
any
conversation
to
have
about
this
discussion.
Hearing
none
all
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
opposed
same
sign.
It
is
unanimous
and
that
passes.
Thank
you,
communications,
communications
from
the
city
planner
and
the
director
of
development
and
code
enforcement,
starting
with
you
paul.
F
Thank
you,
mayor
patterson,
I
think
just
one
or
two
items
this
morning
or
this
afternoon
I
guess
just
additional
information
relating
to
the
regional
planning.
Commission.
The
regional
planning
commission
has
a
role
to
play
in
zoning
recommendations
or
zoning
changes.
So
for
that
plane,
zoning
district.
I
don't
think
many
of
us
were
really
aware
of
that
when
this
all
went
through.
But
the
regional
planning
commission
needs
to
make
a
recommendation
on
any
zoning
change
applications.
We
had
our
first
one
of
those.
F
In
the
last
week
there
was
a
public
hearing.
I
believe
that
the
township
trustees
held
last
night
for
a
reasoning
from
what
was
designated
as
an
r1
zone
in
the
plains
along
lead
master
road
at
connet,
from
r1
to
r3,
looking
at
some
housing
options
there
other
than
that
just
continue
to
do
a
lot
of
different
work
for
the
city.
I
did
want
to
looks
like
my
intern
lauren
is
on
this
call.
I
did
just
want
to
publicly
thank
lauren
for
her
time.
F
Working
for
the
city
of
athens,
she'll
be
graduating
in
a
couple
weeks.
She's
done
an
outstanding
job
in
less
than
ideal
circumstances,
with
everybody
being
working
from
home
and
not
being
able
to
see
each
other
and
have
conversations
face
to
face,
but
I'm
grateful
for
the
work
lauren's
done
and
that's
all
thank
you
mayor.
A
H
C
A
A
A
A
A
They
can
also
be
brought
out,
but
they
you
need
to
call
engineering
and
public
works
to
have
them
schedule
a
time
to
pick
it
up,
and
there
will
be
a
special
haul
rate
of
15
per
cubic
yard
for
larger
items,
and
then
there
also
is
the
dumpsters
that
will
be
located
down
at
the
city
service
garage
at
387,
west
state
street,
and
you
can
bring
scrap
metal
or
other
items
down
to
those
dumpsters.
You
do
need
to
have
a
photo
id
and
proof
of
residency.
A
A
C
A
And
and
drop
off
items
down
there
so
take
advantage
of
athens
spring
cleanup
week
to
clean
out
your
attic.
Your
basement,
your
garage,
hopefully
you're,
cleaning
up
your
yards
already,
but
you
know
what
I'm
saying
other
than
that
I
don't
have
any
other
announcements
and
therefore
I
am
going
to
call
for
a
motion
to
adjourn.
