A
A
Thank
you,
and
I
would
like
to
ask
you
if
you
would
please
silence
or
turn
off
your
cell
phones
at
this
time
and
today
we're
actually
getting
a
little
better.
We
have
shields
between
us
and
looks
like
we're
returning
to
a
certain
level
of
normalcy,
but
we
do
still
have
people
watching
by
youtube
or
by
television,
and
they
will
be
forwarding
questions
to
me
via
text,
maybe
or
we
will
have
some
citizens
calling
in
via
phone
with
questions
or
comments.
A
So
we
ask
those
watching
here
and
by
other
means
to
be
patient
as
we
move
these
cases
or
this
case
through
today.
The
phone
number
in
which
to
call
in
is
706
225-3937,
and
it
should
be
scrolling
on
your
screen
right
now
for
those
that
are
watching
electronically,
I
remind
those
in
the
audience
and
those
watching
on
tv.
This
is
the
first
hearing
of
any
rezoning
text,
change
or
special
exception
request
brought
before
us
today.
A
We
will
then
give
the
opportunity
for
anyone
the
audience
to
speak,
for
or
against
that
request
or
to
inquire
about
that
said
request.
The
commissioners
will
have
time
for
any
needed
discussion
on
the
case.
Once
a
motion
is
made
and
seconded
by
the
commission,
a
vote
will
take
place
and
recommend
recommendation
will
be
rendered.
A
A
If
the
planning
department
makes
a
recommendation
for
denial,
the
applicant
will
have
10
days
from
the
receipt
of
a
letter
stating
the
denial
to
notify
the
clerk
or
counsel
that
they
are
requesting
to
be
placed
on
city
council's
agenda.
The
city
council
of
columbus
will
then
hold
a
public
meeting
called
the
first
reading
said.
Council
shall
consider
the
case
review
our
recommendations
in
the
planning
department,
recommendations
and
hear
discussion
on
the
matter.
A
Council
will
make
a
final
decision
at
a
second
public
meeting
and
that's
called
the
second
reading
all
right
that
takes
care
of
that
commissioners.
We
have
minutes
from
may
the
5th
and
may
the
19th.
Has
everyone
had
an
opportunity
to
take
a
look
at
those
via
trello
or
via
email,
and
has
anyone
noted
any
changes
that
need
to
be
made
to
the
minutes.
A
A
Rezn04210662,
this
is
a
request
to
resolve
35
acres
of
land
located
at
zero
whittlesea
road.
Current
zoning
is
lmi
like
manufacturing.
Industrial
proposed
zoning
is
ro
residential
office
and
gc
general
commercial.
The
proposed
use
is
multi-family
in
retail
greystone
properties,
llc
is
the
applicant.
The
property
is
located
in
council,
district
2,
then
davis,
and
we
will
hear
from
planning
staff
on
this
case
first
place.
B
Yes,
sir
general
land
use
is
consistent
for
general
commercial.
It
is
inconsistent
for
ro.
The
planning
area
is
a
current
land
use
destination
is
vacant,
undeveloped,
futures
general
commercial.
It
is
compatible
with
existing
land
uses.
The
property
does
not
lie
within
the
floodway
and
flood
plain
area.
The
developer
will
need
an
approved
drainage
plan
prior
to
issuance
of
a
site
development
permit.
If
a
permit
is
required,
property
is
served
by
all
city
services.
Average
annual
daily
trips
will
increase
by
2
601
total
trips.
B
If
used
for
commercial
and
multi-family
use,
the
level
of
service
will
remain
at
a
level
b.
This
site
shall
meet
the
codes
and
regulations
of
the
ccg
for
all
commercial
usage.
There'll
be
no
school
impact,
no
buffer
requirements,
no
fort
bending
recommendation,
no
dri
recommendation.
The
surrounding
zoning
to
the
north
is
jerry.
Allen
parkway
to
the
south
is
general
commercial
to
the
east.
As
general
commercial
to
the
west
is
interstate
185.
B
C
Just
want
to
confirm
that
I
was
understanding
the
traffic
analysis
correctly,
that
this
is
expected
to
increase
the
the
traffic
on
that
section
of
whittlesea
road
by
about
20,
but
it'll
still
keep
it
in
the
same
overall
classification.
That's.
B
B
The
applicant
will
speak
more
to
that,
but
generally
from
from
our
case,
normally
roughly
six
percent
is
the
normal
increase
and
they
can
normally
absorb
that
number.
But
the
applicant
will
speak
to
that
when
he
gets
up
all.
A
D
Morning,
my
name
is
george
mize,
I'm
with
the
law
firm
of
page
scronum,
that's
1111
bay
avenue.
You
got
four
ones
in
there,
I'm
here
today
representing
out
the
gravestone
properties.
Of
course,
gravestone
properties
is
one
of
the
most
well
respected
developers
in
this
region,
having
developed
over
4,
500
apartment
units
and
2
000
single
family
lots,
and
here
with
me
today
on
behalf
of
graystone
as
managing
member.
D
Today,
we're
seeking
to
resolve
about
35
acres
of
land,
located
north
side
of
whittlesea
road
in
sandwich
between
I
185
on
the
west
and
the
railroad
track,
which
is
located
behind
krispy
kreme,
bonefish,
grill
mcallister's
deli
on
the
east
and,
as
he
said,
we're
seeking
to
rezone
it
from
lmi
light
manufacturing
to
ro
for
about
33,
acres
and
gc
for
a
small
portion
of
the
property
about
1.7
acres
located
on
the
north
side
of
whittlesea
road.
The
purpose
of
rezoning
will
develop
a
very
high-end
upscale
multi-family
community,
together
with
a
small
but
complementary
commercial
use.
D
The
proposed
development
use
is
certainly
consistent,
compatible
with
surrounding
land
uses.
As
you
know,
there
are
many
apartment
communities,
complexes
in
close
proximity
to
the
subject,
property
and
then
there's
tons
of
general
commercial
and,
as
as
john
suggested
or
said,
the
comprehensive
plan
calls
for
this
to
be
gc,
but
this
property
has
a
lot
of
challenges
as
to
the
depth
of
it.
It
also
has
access
challenges
which
really
don't
make
which
really
make
gc
impractical.
D
My
client,
as
I
say,
will
be
developing
a
high-end,
high-quality
multi-family
development
again
with
a
small,
complementary
commercial
development.
The
development
will
be
very
similar
to
other
developments
that
mr
white
has
developed,
including
gravestone
farms,
graystone
summit
grace
on
columbus
park
and
many
many
others,
and
I
provide
these
pictures
to
so.
You
can
just
get
an
idea
of
the
quality
of
product
quality
of
the
development.
D
Mr
white
tells
me
that
this
particular
project,
though,
will
be
modeled
after
a
brand
new
product
that
he's
trying
in
auburn
it'll
be
graystone
at
auburn,
and,
although
it's
not
complete,
I
do
have
a
couple
of
pictures
here
to
give
you
an
idea
of
the
renderings
and
pictures
here
to
give
you
an
idea
of
the
quality
of
development.
We're
talking
about
this
is
over
in
auburn
we've
we've.
D
D
As
for
the
gc
portion
of
the
development
plans
are
not
yet
totally
firm,
but
given
the
small
size.
Obviously
it's
going
to
have
to
be
small,
given
its
location
in
proximity
to
the
apartment,
complex,
it's
going
to
need
to
be
compatible
with
or
complementary
to
the
complex
things
that
we're
thinking
about
or
tossing
around
or
coffee
shops
sandwich
shops,
and
maybe
even
climate
control,
self
storage,
mainly
for
the
residents.
D
The
railroad
track
on
the
east
and
whittlesea
road
on
the
south
buffering
is
really
not
going
to
be
an
issue
as
far
as
density
is
concerned,
given
the
narrowness
of
this
property
and
some
of
the
other
challenges,
and
given
the
fact
that
that
will
wants
to
do
something
special
with
this
property
he's
going
to
develop
this
property,
much
less
dense
scenario
would
allow
currently
he's
designing
240
units,
which
represents
a
little
less
than
20
percent
of
what
ro
would
allow.
But
this
reduction
in
density
is
not
unusual.
D
This
is
kind
of
this
developer's
pattern
of
developing
high-end
low-dense
developments.
He
has
already
mentioned
about
the
school
impact
we've
gotten
some
information
from
the
school
district,
showing
that
school
impact's
really
not
going
to
be
an
issue.
In
this
case,
the
school
capacity
is
going
to
be
sufficient
to
handle
the
number
of
children.
If
john
rex
said,
the
planning
department
kind
of
uses
the
formula
six
percent-
and
you
multiply
that
times-
the
number
of
units
you
come
up
with
about,
we
came
up
with
14.4,
so
I
rounded
up
to
15
kids.
D
I
don't
know
how
you
get
a
0.4
kid,
but
the
I
got
information
on
friday
from
the
school
district
that
indicates
that
it
will
be
serviced
by
allen,
elementary
arnold,
middle
school
and
northside
high
school
and
all
of
them
have
sufficient
capacity
to
handle
the
additional
children.
I
wasn't
able,
because
I
got
it
on
friday.
D
I
was
not
able
to
get
the
information
to
the
school
district
in
time
to
get
it
to
you
guys
on
trello
or
whatever
it
is
you
look
at,
but
I
do
have
copies
here
of
the
email
from
the
school
district
showing
the
enrollment
and
the
capacity
numbers
for
allen,
arnold,
middle
school
and
north
side.
If
you
guys
want
a
copy
of
that,
all
public
facilities
and
infrastructure
located
at
the
site,
there'd
be
no
negative
impact
to
that
facilities
and
infrastructure.
D
Nor
would
there
be
any
additional
requirement
on
the
city's
part
for
investing
in
any
additional
facilities.
Development
certainly
have
a
very
positive
economic
impact
to
the
cities
and
its
citizens,
including
the
creation
of
numerous
construction
jobs.
During
about
an
eighteen
18-month
build
out
process,
together
with
a
substantial
increase
in
business
for
local
suppliers,
subcontractors,
electricians,
plumbers
and
others
who
are
support.
D
The
construction
industry
there'll
be
certainly
new,
numerous
permanent
jobs
creating
once
the
development
that's
up
and
done
and
there'll
be
permanent
work
created
for
subcontractors
and
third-party
vendors
that
provide
for
services
such
as
maintenance,
carpet
replacement
or
cleaning
landscaping
and
even
painting.
This
development
also
have
a
very
substantial
impact
and
increase
the
tax
base
from
abnormal
tax
purposes,
thus
providing
a
really
substantial
economic
impact
to
the
city
again
without
adversely
affecting
any
existing
infrastructure
requiring
any
additional
investment
on
the
city's
part.
D
We're
looking
at
increasing
property
tax
receipts
from
about
fifteen
thousand
dollars
a
year
to
well
over
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
year.
In
addition,
there'll
be
a
boon
to
the
city
in
the
form
of
sales
tax
receipts
in
connection
with
the
purchasing
sale
of
millions
of
dollars
of
construction
materials.
D
D
A
A
E
Mr
baker,
good
morning,
mr
maize,
hey
is
there
this
this
entry
and
exit
that
you
all
are
proposing,
and
I
understand
that
you're
in
in
you
know,
planning
for
this-
is
that
where
the
red
light
is,
it
is
not
it's
on
whittlesea,
okay
it'll
be
most
likely
to
write
in
right
out.
Okay,
gotcha.
Will
this
be
gated
like
many
of
the
graystone
communities?
Okay?
What's
the
activity
of
that
railroad?
Forgive
me
for
not
for
not
knowing
that,
but
is
it
active
at
this
time
it's
active,
but.
E
A
Anyone
all
right,
thank
you,
mr
mize.
Thank
you
all
right,
commissioners,
with
no
more
questions
open
the
floor
for
a
motion
on
this
case.
Anyone
like
to
make
a.
F
In
reference
to
recn06210662
request
to
rezone
35
acres
of
land
located
at
zero
whittlesea
road,
current
zoning
is
lmi
proposed,
zoning
is
ro
and
gc.
The
proposed
use
is
multi-family
in
retail
gravestone
properties.
Llc
is
the
applicant.
The
property
is
located
in
council
district,
2
davis.
I
recommend
we
approve
this
for
compatible
land
use.
A
All
right,
we
have
an
approval,
a
motion
for
approval,
we'll
have
a
second,
mr
dudley.
Any
discussion
got
another.
Second,
yes,
okay
got
you
miss
thomas.
We
got
two
seconds
going
on
here
and
that's
good
all
those
in
favor,
please
raise
your
right
hand
and
it's
unanimous.
Thank
you,
gentlemen.
All
right.
That
concludes
our
cases.
For
today.
I
appreciate
your
presence
here
for
such
a
short
meeting
new
business.
We
do
have
two
cases
scheduled
for
june
16
2021.,
since
we
have
everyone
here.
A
I
need
to
do
a
poll
because
two
of
us
can't
be
present
at
the
june
16
2021,
which
would
be
me
and
mr
derby,
due
to
a
conflict
at
work.
Yes,
sir,
okay,
so
we
got
one
two
three
we
would.
We
would
have
five
if
everyone
else
shows
up
and
mr
dudley
has
agreed
to
lead
the
thing,
if
that's
agreeable,
with
planning
it
is
okay,
but
we
will
have
to
have
five
here
total,
including
the
chairman.
