I

long
way
to
see
us
and
Johnny
I
also
appreciate
your
being
here
and
if
y'all
have
places
to
go,
I
completely
understand
if
you
want
to
duck
out
moving
to
public
comments.
I
have
four
on
the
list,
but
I
think
I
only
need
three.
Miss
Goines
will
be
coming
back
to
you
in
just
a
few
minutes.
Okay,
unless
you
wanted
to
speak
about
something
else:
okay,
mr.
Patterson
Harrell
Patterson,
regarding
lighting
on
Emmons
bridge.
A
F
Live
off
off
of
a
man's
bridge,
the
only
entrance
off
of
that
is
masters
Drive
and
that
comes
off
of
alcove
II
and
from
where
Alko
V,
where
it
starts
on
a
man's
bridge,
starts
on
alcove
II
to
the
end
of
the
city
limits.
There
are
16
light
poles.
There
are
four
lights
so
far
on
that
on
that
road,
it's
like
a
tunnel
with
all
the
trees
on
both
sides
of
the
road.
Typically
at
night,
it
is
really
dark
out
there.
The
four
lights
are
two
lights
that
are
there
for
the
Kelly
Taylor
historic
home.
F
The
other
two
lights
that
are,
there
are
lights
that
I
previously
have
requested,
and
you
put
in
one
at
the
entryway
and
one
that
is
about
a
third
of
the
way
down
the
road.
The
light
fixture
was
there
just
no
light
on
it's
now
on.
My
question
tonight
is
with
12
more
light
poles
already
there
can
we
get
some
more
lights
in
there,
so
we
can
see.
What's
going
on
on
that
Street,
we.
A
A
F
A
F
F
One
other
short
thing:
on
Amin's
bridge:
it's
been
rare
that
we've
had
rain,
but
but
we
we've
just
had
quite
a
bit
of
rain.
Our
rain
gauge
said
seven
inches
from
from
this
weekend.
The
ditch
on
the
right
hand,
side
has
not
been
properly
cleaned
out.
So
when
it
blocks
up
it
just
sends
all
the
the
dirt
and
the
water
out
on
on
dam
ins,
Bridge
bridge
on
the
ditch,
on
the
right
hand,
side.
G
D
A
A
Laer
al:
are
we
going
to
address
your
topic
to
you,
or
did
you
want
to
speak
on
something
else?
What's
that?
Okay?
Okay,
great
thank
you
I,
appreciate
you
both
you're,
both
being
here
is
that
is
it
for
public.
The
public
forum
will
move
to
the
public
hearing
regarding
a
variance
at
1415,
East,
Church
Street.
Mr.
stone
did
you.
I
A
C
Lee
with
turf
stone
development
between
Friday
and
yesterday,
I've
had
some
requests,
come
from
planning
zoning
and
haven't
had
a
chance
to
really
get
down,
and
no
nuts
and
bolts
of
those
requests.
So
at
this
point,
I'd
like
to
ask
if
we
can
table
it
until
the
next
session
and
luckily
the
gentleman's
prayer
gave
gave
me
some
knowledge,
wisdom
and
judgment
that
I
probably
need
to
analyze
those
issues.
So,
okay.
A
A
I
A
K
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
Thank,
You
counsel,
I'm
here
tonight
to
request
a
variance
for
the
to
allow
us
to
have
two
rows
of
parking
between
the
building
and
spring,
as
well
as
a
reduction
in
the
landscape
buffer
on
the
west
side
of
the
property
between
us
and
the
Arby's
I
know.
We've
talked
about
this
and
had
a
lot
of
back-and-forth
between
us
in
the
city
and
we've
come
up
with
a
variety
of
plans
and
I
want
to
do
pass
out
just
kind
of
the
two
plans
that
you
know.
K
K
Right
so
I
gave
you
guys
to
first
the
color
rendering
event
twos
different
site
plans,
one
of
the
site
plans,
as
you
can
see,
on
the
right
hand,
side
of
the
building.
If
your
back
is
to
Spring
Street,
there
is
a
large
landscape
buffer
that
we
included
in
there
that's
about
20
feet
wide.
In
addition
to
that,
when
we
had
sent
you
guys
the
proposed
site
plan
originally,
you
know
I
know
that
your
concern
was
that
we
were
showing
a
very
large
parking
field
and
what
y'all
wanted
to
see
was
more
and
more
pervious
area.
K
More
landscaping
touches
for
lack
of
a
better
word,
and
just
you
know
not
just
one
large
paved
area.
So
at
first
we
went
back
and
included
all
of
the
shrubs
that
we're
gonna
be
adding
on
to
the
parking
lot.
In
fact,
we
took
away
three
parking
spaces
in
order
to
create
some
landscape
islands
on
the
front
and
rear.
In
addition
to
that,
we
took
the
so
at
first
we
were
showing
utility
meters
on
the
rear
of
the
building,
and
we
we
went
back
and
redesigned
that
so
now
the
meters
are
on
this
side.
K
So
you
know,
because
a
lot
of
the
traffic
is
going
to
coming
from
the
bat
now
they're
not
going
to
see
you
know
a
bunch
of
metres
on
the
back
of
the
building
in
a
ladder,
because
it's
all
going
to
be
on
the
side,
which
will
be
less
visible
to
the
open
space.
In
addition
to
that,
we
address
the
city's
concerns
of
kind
of
the
back
of
the
building.
Looking
like
just
a
back
of
a
building
in
an
alleyway
and
we
created
a
better
more
aesthetic
look,
so
we
made
the
parapets
more
uniform
and.
L
K
We
we
passed
that
we
sent
that
over
to
Patrick,
Kelly
and
Debby
Atkinson
and
and
Darrell
as
well,
so
they've
seen
that
so
as
I
was
just
kind
of
rewinding
a
little
bit,
we
submitted
the
plan
to
you
guys
with
the
increase
pervious
area,
with
the
landscaping
on
the
side
of
the
building
and
the
added
trees
all
on
the
parking
lot,
and
in
talking
to
the
city
staff.
You
know
they
they
kind
of
brought
up
some
more
concerns
about.
You
know
the
dead-end
parking
and
you
know
the
front
of
the
building.
K
How,
if
you
get
there
and
parking
lots
crowded,
you
know
it's
going
to
be
tough
to
turn
a
reverse
and
get
out
of
the
parking
lot.
So
we
then
went
back
and
redesigned
the
plan
so
that
the
other
option
would
be
to
create
a
one-way
Drive
aisle
where
cars
can
go.
You
know
they
can
come
to
the
front
of
the
building
and
if
they
leave,
they
don't
have
to
exit
the
same
side.
They
can
go
around
the
other
side
now.
The
issue
with
that
is
that
then
we're
taking
away
that
landscape
buffer.
K
So
you
know
we're
open
to
suggestions.
You
know
our
our
main
objective
here
is
that
you
know
we've
gone
back
and
forth
with
our
tenants
and
the
idea
of
them
having
one
row
of
parking
in
front
of
the
building,
and
you
know
when
you've
got
four
tenants
that
are
all
sharing
parking
spaces,
and
you
know
none
of
its
really
exclusive
they're,
all
common
parking.
It
just
doesn't
fly
for
them.
K
You
know,
we've
we
tried
to
get
them
to
agree
to
letting
us
push
the
building
up
close
to
the
road,
but
the
issue
there
is
that
Arby's
who
has
already
granted
us
they've
waived
their
restriction
on
chicken
and
has
been
really
you
know
a
pleasure
to
work
with
that,
doesn't
fly
for
them
and
we
want
to
be
good
neighbors.
We
don't
want
to
interfere
that
with
another
business
and
from
a
functionality
standpoint
the
the
way
the
center
sits
today,
it's
very
even
with
Arby's,
and
the
two
properties
have
interconnectivity
with
one
another.
K
They
were
a
common
joint
cross
easement.
So
we
feel
that
this
is
the
most
functional
plan
to
move
forward
with.
So
that's
I
come
here
today
to
ask
for
a
favor
from
the
City
of
Monroe
to
allow
us
to
design
the
plan
this
way
and
in
return
we
promise
to
bring
a
beautiful
product
to
your
city
and
brand-new
businesses.
That
I
think
you
guys
are
really
gonna.
Like
really
appreciate.
Thank.
M
K
So
appreciate
you
bringing
that
up.
Mr.
Bradley,
we
so
my
father,
who's
partner
of
mine
owns
a
retail
brokerage
company
and
they
represent
probably
300
national
retail
tenants.
And
in
talking
to
these
tenants
who
one
of
the
tenants
is,
a
concept
called
queueing
Magoo's
and
in
fact
the
owner
of
the
humid
is,
is
the
franchisee
of
the
Papa
John's
here
as
names
Dean
forgot.
What
his
last
name
is.
K
In
addition,
they
feel
like
if
the
parking
lots
not
seen
from
the
road,
then
people
can't
see
that
their
business
is
being
patronized
and
it
just
it
hurts
their
business.
So
they've
tried
that
urban
look
and
gone
in
those.
You
know
situations
where
the
buildings
up
on
the
road
and
the
parkings
in
the
back
and
it
just
it
just
didn't
fly.
You
know
we
asked
the
same
question
because
the
obvious
question
is
well
if
the
majority
of
your
customers
are
accessing
this
site
because
there's
no
direct
access
Offspring
from
the
back.
What
does
it
matter?
K
J
Out
of
a
question
for
you
answer
this:
why
would
we
treat
your
business
any
differently
from
any
of
the
other
businesses
that
we
have
required
to
adhere
to
the
requirements
for
this
overlay
district
I
haven't
heard
you
say
anything
that,
to
my
mind,
makes
your
situation
a
hardship
or
unique
or
anything.
It
seems
to
me
that
you're
just
saying
I
just
don't
want
to
adhere
to
the
regulations.
Everybody
else
does
so
treat
me
differently.
I,
don't
get
that
I.
J
K
J
K
J
K
If
you
have
a
single,
if
you
look
around
at
the
at
the
most
recent
developments,
I'm
gonna
use
some
examples:
the
Panera
Bread,
the
Arby's,
the
Wendy's,
the
Taco
Bell,
Dunkin
Donuts.
You
know
those
guys
are
heavily
a
lot
of
their
business.
Is
a
drive-through
so
they're
not
as
concerned
because
a
lot
of
their
businesses
through
the
drive-through
and
number
two
they're,
a
single
business,
we're
a
shopping
center
and
we're
for
businesses
that
are
all
sharing
one
parking
field.
K
J
K
I
guess
my
question,
for
you
is,
you
know
if
you're
y'all's
goal
is
to
bring
new
businesses
to
the
City
of
Monroe,
and,
and
you
know
if
we
were
to
bring
these
businesses
and
and
I,
don't
think
to
be
honest
with
you,
these
businesses
aren't
willing
to
come
if
we
can't,
if
we
can't
design
it
this
way.
But
if
we're
we.
J
K
L
Let
me
Patrick
has
some
plans
that
were
submitted
right
after
you
made
your
first
proposal
and
I'd
like
for
him
to
be
able
to
pass
those
out
and
show
everyone.
What
really
and
truly
the
CDO
the
commercial
district
overlay
could
look
like
this
was
almost
perfect,
except
for
a
green
buffer
and
a
little
bit
of
exceeding
parking.
L
That
probably
could
be.
You
know
we
could
work
with
you
on.
It
does
bring
that
building
to
the
front
as
our
new
overlay
requires
it
does
have
parking
in
the
rear.
It's
well
lighted.
You
have
a
road
coming
from
Walmart
that
brings
traffic
in
from
that
area
as
well
as
off
of
78
at
the
light,
but
it
I
understand
that
you
said
no.
This
is
not
what
you
could
live
with.
Yes,
we.
K
Yes,
ma'am,
that's
correct.
One
of
our
a
few
of
our
tenants
are
not
in
favor
of
this
plan
because
they
do
not
want
all
of
their
parking
to
be
in
the
back.
The
way
they
see
it
is
that
cars
are
gonna,
come
down
this
road
and
you've
got
one
very
large
Center
that
is
essentially
blocking
the
rest
of
the
property.
This
takes
away
all
the
frontage
of
that
the
property
has.
The
majority
of
the
traffic
is
coming
from
this
direction.
So
sorry,
majority
of
the
traffic's
coming
from
the
MLK
direction,
not
the
other
side.
K
So
the
issue
is:
is
that
they're
parking
lots
not
seen,
and
you
know
they
and
can
I
ask
y'all
one
question:
you
know:
how
would
you
guys
envision
this
working?
How
would
you
guys
envision
it
looking
from
the
main
road?
What
would
you
envision
that
the
storefront
looking
like?
Would
you
envision
it
being
the
back
of
a
building
the
main
road?
Certainly
not?
What
would
you
envision
it
just
like
this
was.
K
A
K
K
So
their
issue
is
that
I'll
just
give
you
an
example.
One
of
our
tenants
is
sport,
clubs
and
back
of
their
area,
where
they,
where
they
have
all
the
saints
for
washing,
hair
and
stuff
like
that
area,
they
don't
want
any
windows
so
for
their
design,
it'd
be
hard
for
them
to
do
it.
That
way,
any
of
these
tenants
they
don't
want
windows
on
both
sides
of
their
of
their
space.
I've
asked
him
I've,
begged
and
pleaded
for
this
a
lot
of
the
tenants.
K
L
You
knew
I
would
assume
that
you,
you
did
your
homework.
Yes,
ma'am.
You
knew
that
we
had
new
guidelines
in
place
when
you
bought
that
property,
and
you
took
that
risk
thinking
that
we
would
give
you
a
variance
well
I.
Normally
people
put
property
under
contract,
they
have
a
due
diligence
period
and
they
make
it
conditioned
on
a
rezone
or
variance.
You
didn't
do
that.
K
You
bring
up
a
good
point,
you
bring
up
a
good
point,
I,
we
did
roll
the
dice
and
looking
around
the
rest
of
this
shopping
center,
we
saw
that
there
were
other
properties
that
do
have
double
rows
of
parking
in
the
bank.
The
IHOP-
and
you
know
we
felt
like
because
this
we're
not
trying
we're
not
asking
for
you
guys
to
just
make
an
exception
just
for
us.
K
We
understand
that
you
do
have
an
overlay
district
and,
frankly,
we
felt,
like
you
know,
we're
bringing
a
brand
different
type
of
center
along
this
main
road
internally,
you've
got
fast-food
restaurant,
fast-food,
restaurant
I,
hop
bank,
we're
bringing
a
new
shopping
center
to
this
community,
and
it's
actually
the
last
remaining
developable
property
on
this
road,
because
to
the
right
side
of
us
is
the
power
easement.
So
you
can't
even
develop
on
that
property
and
in
addition,
we
felt,
like
you
know,
because
how
we're
laying
our
building
out
lines
up
with
the
Arby's.
You
know.
K
K
So,
if
there's,
if
there's
other
aesthetics
that
we
can
add
to
this
property,
if
you
don't
want
us
to
do
more
landscaping
along
the
right-of-way
or
or
do
you
know,
donate
to
a
tree
true
or
they
call
those
at
refund
or
you
know,
we're
open
we're
open
to
ideas-
and
you
know
we,
the
issue
with
the
building
close
to
the
road
is,
our
tenants
are,
are
gonna
back
out
on
the
project.
Yeah.
N
Way
or
the
other
on
this,
but
maybe
I
need
to
try
to
understand
the
reason
for
the
card
overlay
regulation
that
we
have
today
about
the
double
parking,
because
if
you
look
at
polymers
the
Dixons
course
and
I
guess
it
what's
being
proposed
here,
it's
very
different
from
the
other
businesses
that
are
on
the
street,
because
it
is
a
shopping
center
versus
a
single
business.
Well,
that's
right
or
wrong
or
whatever,
but
it's
different.
N
The
other
difference
is
the
other
businesses
along
there,
whether
it's
you
know
orbits,
which
you
can
see
in
this
diagram
well
or
Wendy's,
or
Taco,
Bell
or
Bank,
or
whoever
has
they
drive-thru
at
the
street,
which
takes
up
that.
You
still
have
the
concrete.
If
you
will
it's
just
not
parking,
but
it's
not
like
they're,
pushing
all
the
way
the
building's
up
to
the
street
because
they
have
a
drive-thru.
N
You
know
a
driveway
in
front
of
the
building,
so
the
concrete
is
still
in
front
of
the
building,
just
as
parking
spaces
would
be
in
front
of
the
building,
so
the
question
I've
got
maybe
for
staff
or
for
anyone.
The
Council
is
when
we
passed
the
car
to
overlay.
That
said,
it's
limited
to
one
row
of
parking.
What
will
we
trying
to
accomplish
there
and
is
that
just
to
do
away
with
the
concrete
and
have
the
building
closer,
because
that's
not
what's
happening
with
the
other
businesses,
the
concrete
still
there.
Mr.
A
P
A
A
A
G
Evening
my
name
is
John
Hampton.
This
is
my
partner,
Kyle
Ward,
you
represent
Hill
point
and
we
are
applying
for
conditional
use
for
two
hundred
sixteen
unit
market
rate
non
subsidized,
Class
A
apartment
complex
across
from
where
the
new
public
center
has
gone.
So
we've
got
some
renderings
here,
roughly
nine
buildings.
Three
stories:
you
know
this
is
a
project
that
will
have
very
high
quality,
finishes:
resort
pool
dog
walk.
G
You
know
really
what
you're
seeing
in
you
know
kind
of
top
quality
apartment
complexes.
You
know
around
the
country
right
now.
The
one
thing
I
do
want
to
clarify
I
noticed
in
the
planning
zoning.
When
we
were
here
a
couple
weeks
ago,
two
things
one:
they
had
mentioned
that
the
aesthetics
and
the
materials
didn't
comply
with.
C
G
We
had
to
have
for
the
zoning
we
didn't
discuss
those
really
with
anyone
and
as
I
kind
of
mentioned
in
our
correspondence.
You
know
we're
certainly
open
to
comments,
but
we
had
a
vision.
You
know
kind
of
a
mix
of
Hardy
and
brick
and
stone.
The
second
thing
is:
when
the
plane
is
there
any
recommended
denial
for
this.
It
was
that
it
previously
had
been
brought
up
for
every
zone,
but
that
was
to
a
128
unit
subsidized
project.
This
is
a
market
rate
project,
so
we're
anticipating
rental
rates
in
the
1250
$1,300
month
range
and.
Q
Q
Project
as
a
I
mean
we've
done
our
our
market
research
and
we
see
the
there's
a
significant
demand
for
this
type
of
project
in
Monroe.
This
will
be
for
people
transitioning
to
the
area
that
may
be
seeking
out
new
jobs
and
employment
here,
school
teachers,
firemen,
police
and
again
to
John's
point.
It
is
not
a
subsidized
tax
credit
projects,
a
private,
a
we
anticipate.
Q
The
project
cost
would
be
twenty
five,
twenty
eight
million,
so
significant
tax
revenue
for
the
community
I
think
we
have
sent
most
of
you
have
correspondence
and
you've
seen
our
application
touch
on
the
b3
overlay
as
the
way
we
see
it,
the
it's
just
conditional
use
right.
It
is
not
disallowed,
so
just
wanted
to
touch
on.
That
is
not
a
you
know,
true
formal
reason.
Q
G
And
the
one
other
thing
I'll
point
out
is
you
have
a
new
public
center
of
this?
Creating
between
500
subs
you've
got
a
tachi
expansion.
You
people
coming
in
here
got
people
working
here.
You've
got
business
expanding
here
those
people
have
to
live
somewhere
and
right
now,
they're
living
in
Loganville
they're
living
outside
the
city.
A
So
you
chose
this
area
for
a
conditional
use
rather
than
going
to
an
area.
That's
already
zoned
multi-family.
Well,
because
I
really
I
really
disagree
with
saying
this
is
commercial.
It's
not
commercial.
This
is
residential,
so
you
know
we
may
be
talking
semantics,
but
it's
there's
nothing
commercial,
but
nobody's
buying
anything.
There.
A
J
Yeah
I,
would
you
know
we
got
a
ton
of
acreage
in
the
City
of
Monroe,
that's
zoned
r2.
You
could
go
start
building
tomorrow.
Why,
in
the
world,
before
the
commercial,
complex,
even
comes
out
of
the
ground?
Do
you
want
to
take
part
of
it
and
make
it
residential
when
you
got
all
this
other
area
they're
all
unless
you're
somebody
to
build.
G
On
owner,
for
one,
is
we
like
this
site?
This
site
sets
up
for
apartments
and
multi-family.
If
you
want
to
put
commercial
here,
the
masquerading
costs
are
extremely
high,
so
the
site
comes
in
and
it
goes
off.
So
it
sets
up
well
for
an
apartment
complex.
We
like
the
location
off
kind
of
offshore
Latrell
Boulevard
across
from
the
new,
the
new
center.
That's
going
in.
That's
what
drew
us
to
this
location.
Could
I
go,
buy
something
zoned
or
three
somewhere
else.
Absolutely
would
I
be
back
here
to
get
a
density
variance?
Probably
so
because
we.
C
G
Q
L
Can
I
ask
you
something
you
referenced
several
properties
that
you
have
built
and
obviously
our
building
one
being
in
Hinesville,
Georgia
and
I
went
to
that
site
and
on
your
front
page
you're,
telling
about
the
community,
it's
possibly
about
the
size
of
what
you're
proposing
and
it's
concerning
that.
You
mentioned
that
you
cater
to
any
and
all
need
needs
and
that
you
offer
by
the
room
rental.
L
Q
A
R
Thank
y'all
for
having
us
I'm,
just
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
Royal
Family
Partnership,
and
tonight
you
might
have
seen
the
letter
I
sent
out
on
May
29th,
this
kind
of
giving
you
an
overview
of
what
we've
been
working
on
for
the
last
15
18
years
on
this
project.
As
you
well
know,
ma
B
is
about
to
start
this
project
right
across
the
street.
R
It's
gonna
mean
500
and
800
employees
when
it's
a
fully
full
capacity
and
based
on
this
and
looking
and
talking
to
Shane,
you
all
know
all
the
industry
that's
coming
into
town
and
the
need
for
adequate
workforce.
Housing
I
will
reiterate
to
you
that
today,
I
looked
up
on
MLS
that
we're
running
a
two
point:
nine
month
supply
of
housing
right
now,
which
is
very
low.
So
we
have
a
huge
demand
for
adequate
workforce
housing
as
they
as
Kyle
just
mentioned.
They
are
gonna,
spend
between
25
and
30
million
dollars
on
this
project.
R
So
it's
no
chump
change
and
the
fact
that
this
does
not
have
any
subsidized
component
whatsoever
in
it.
They
are
picking
this
place
based
on
location
and
proximity,
but
also
because
of
topography.
Precision,
planning
and
I
went
through
a
process
several
years
ago
of
doing
a
masquerade
study
of
this
area.
This
was
the
only
area
out
of
that
300
acres
of
b3
that
met
standards
where
we
couldn't
quite
get
commercial
buildings
on
that.
R
So
it's
adequate
for
apartments
in
the
fact
that
you
can
go
in
and
bench
apartment
buildings
into
the
side
of
the
hill
there,
and
so
it's
basically
just
an
accessibility
factor
as
well
as
a
topography
factor
that
we're
looking
at
the
property
is
b3
zoned
with
the
conditional
use,
and
so
we
just
ask
that
you
consider
you
know
looking
at
this
project
and
in
detail.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
H
My
name
is
Dave
Brown
and
I.
Appreciate
you
giving
me
this
opportunity.
Most
of
you
know
me
and
know
that
I
love
this
town
just
every
day
that
I
go
through
town
and
I
walk
through
there
most
every
morning.
I'm
just
excited
to
see
the
town
and
what
has
happened?
Susan
I've
been
here
since
oh
cause.
We
both
grew
up
here,
but
all
when
I
hear
about
this
project,
it
scares
me,
and
that
goes
back
my
background.
H
I'm,
not
a
real
toy
I
have
some
understanding
of
real
estate
and
infield
and
tax
base
and
all
that
stuff,
but
I
spent
30
years
of
my
life
in
Gwinnett,
County
and
I
watched
what
happened
to
that
County
tell
people
we
moved
down
here
the
day
before
they
cut
their
last
tree
down
and
I.
Just
I
worked
in
a
school
where
at
one
time
we
had
almost
a
hundred
trailers
and
a
good
bit
of
that
came
from
apartments.
H
All
good
men
over
here
to
speaking
with,
but
I
would
I
would
urge
you
consider
carefully
building
apartments
in
our
town
and
I
know.
We
have
apartments
here.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
I
think
we
probably
have
more
rental
properties
in
we'll
have
home
ownership
and
I
know.
We
have
some
some
groups
that
are
encouraging
home
ownership
and
making
home
ownership
more
available.
H
More
affordable
and
I
applaud
those
people
and
I
hope
you
do
but
I'm
just
here
to
tell
you
what
you
already
know,
and
that
is
there
are
people
in
our
community
that
are
concerned
about
uncontrolled
growth
and
overgrowth,
and
just
encourage
you
to
think
carefully
and
I'm
sure
you
will
about
considering
developments
like
this
I.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank.
B
I'm
not
prepared
to
get
up
and
say
anything.
I
just
came
to
listen
at
37
half
years
with
one
lighting,
gasps
I
worked
in
the
slum
area,
West
Walter
Plaza
Drive.
All
these
apartments
going
up.
They
get
them
up,
they
put
the
siding
on
them.
It
falls
off
because
kids,
you
know
it
just
doesn't
stay
up
there.
We
do
not
need.
We
certainly
do
not
want
over
200
apartment
complex
in
our
city.
B
A
A
S
S
The
only
variance
that
they
would
have
needed
was
the
same
that
they
have
requested,
or
what
they're
asking
for
now.
One
was
a
5-foot
landscape
buffer
on
the
on
the
west
side
of
the
property
and
the
parking
variance
for
additional
parking
above
the
required
and
the
allowable
administrative
variance
for
more
parking.
S
It
flows
through
it's
it's
a
it's
a
completely
compliant
with
the
CDO
requirements.
Beyond
that,
I
think
that
the
site
concerns
that
were
expressed
earlier
are
kind
of
moot
for
two
reasons:
one.
If
you
move
the
building
all
the
way
up
to
the
road
you
can
see
in
that
parking
lot.
Past
Arby's.
You
can
also,
through
the
hundred-foot
Transco
pipeline
easement,
see
that
there
are
people
parked
there
and
that
they're
busy
and
they're
open
and
again
the
landscape
buffers.
Are
there,
the
setbacks?
Are
there
the
sidewalks
they're?
S
No
glass,
no
you'd
have
your
standard
entry
doors,
but
you
dress
those
up
with
awnings
and
put
some
columns
and
pilasters
the
same
thing
they
sent
to
face
the
Access
Drive
you
put
that
toward
Spring
Street,
make
it
look
like
a
storefront
that
also
allowed
them
additional
advertising
opportunity
for
more
signage
for
their
businesses
that
get
the
sides
and
and
the
back,
so
they
they
would
benefit
from
that.
It
just
allow
better
circulation.
The
access
drive
comes
in
from
Arby's
and
you
can
exit
through
the
access
or
vice
versa.
It
flows.
S
They
don't
have
to
put
that
driveway
around
them
right
side
of
the
building
it
just
worked,
and
when
we
saw
this
will
when
I
originally
saw
it,
I
was
excited.
Like
finally,
I
talked
to
somebody
told
him
about
the
CDO
and
they
did
almost
exactly
what
it
said.
Then
they
said,
oh
well,
that
won't
work
for
our
tenants.
S
So
we
need
to
whip
through
all
that
and
actually
I
think
it
kind
of
got
to
me
a
little
bit
premature
from
their
design
professional
before
before
they
were
ready
to
release
it,
but
again
I
saw
it
and
I
was
excited,
and
this
is
what
CDO
should
be.
This
is
how
it
should
work,
and
if
you
have
any
questions
about
it,
I'll
be
happy
to
to
address
anything
else.
You
want
to
know
about
ooh.
A
S
Yeah
well,
the
staff
recommendation
for
the
request
as
presented
was
for
denial,
as
was
planning
and
zoning,
but
if,
if
they
wanted
to
go
to
this
design,
we
would
have
no
heartburn
with
with
allowing
this
it.
This
is
a
beautiful
that's
exactly
what
we've
envisioned
with
the
corridor
design
over
this
design.
Don't
yes,
the
one
I
handed
out
okay,
dated
3:19.
K
K
You
know,
I
get
it
that
you
do
have
an
overlay
district
and
I'm
not
trying
to
bend
the
rules
here
at
all
I.
Just
you
know.
Mr.
Bradley
brought
up
a
good
point
about
some
of
these
other
freestanding
uses
like
Arby's,
for
instance,
and
Panera.
You
know,
while
they
might
not
have
double
rows
parking
in
front
of
them,
they
still
have
impervious
area
between
the
buildings
in
the
road.
Whether
it
be
you
know,
a
patio
or
a
drive-through
lane,
so.
L
N
N
A
N
S
So
the
question
is:
what's
the
purpose
of
limiting
the
front
loaded
parking
between
the
street
and
the
building
it
was?
It
was
to
eliminate
large
expanses
of
pavement.
Well,
it
was
with
no
landscaping
anything
interspersed
for
interest
and
aesthetics
of
the
building.
I
wouldn't
mention
to
that.
Arby's
did
get
a
variance
for
their
driveway,
they
do
have
single
pay
parking
and
one
driveway,
and
then
just
the
additional
allowance
for
their
for
the
drive-through
Wendy's
has
landscaping
in
front
of
it.
No
drive-through
their
Drive
thrus
around
the
back.
We
have
dr.
S
Hodges
and
his
dental
office
that's
coming
in
and
they
didn't
understand
our
CDO,
but
we
worked
with
them
and
they're
in
almost
complete
compliance
as
well.
It's
it's
been
pretty
much
everything
in
that
area,
including
things
that
predated
our
ordinance
that
meet
the
same
requirements
as
this
would.
S
S
L
Like
what
we
have
the
quality
foods
and
wherever
you
know,
I
strip,
the
the
traditional
1960s
strip,
mall,
is
what
we
are
trying
our
best
to
get
away
from.
And
we
establish
this
vision
as
a
team,
and
we
have
an
applicant
that
has
totally
disregarded
almost
every
single
thing
since
March
that
we've
asked
him
to
do
and.
S
Again,
the
the
biggest
problem
is
a
self-inflicted
wound.
Is
that
they're
trying
to
put
too
much
on
the
site?
The
site
is
too
small
for
the
further
amount
of
tenants
that
they
want.
I
explained
it
to
mr.
ronberry
that
this
afternoon,
or
maybe
this
morning
on
the
phone
that
they
just
have
it's
too
busy
too
many
businesses
we
have
a.
They
have
a
0.92
acre
site
trying
to
put
for
business
on
the
one.
That's
in
compliance.
That's
most
recent,
since
our
ordinance
was
established,
was
the
Dunkin
Donuts
and
the
AT&T.
S
That's
one
point,
one:
five
acres
and
they've
got
two
businesses
on
it
and
they
complied,
and
it
was
difficult
for
them
to
even
put
in
the
sidewalk
to
nowhere
by
the
road
they
don't
like
that,
but
they
complied-
and
this
is
like
has
been
mentioned
before,
trying
to
put
10
pounds
in
a
five-pound
bag.
It's
just
it's
just
too
big
of
a
task
for
the
property
that's
available
in.
In
our
opinion,.
S
It
boils
down
to
the
corridor
design
overlay
standards,
which
is
parking,
landscaping,
building
aesthetics,
irrigation
all
those
things
that
will
make
it
more
appealing
and
there
that's
that's
another
terminal
gateway.
That's
where
people
get
will
get
their
first
impression
of
the
city.
The
things
that
developed
around
it
that
aren't
in
compliance
is
exactly
the
reason
we
developed
these
requirements,
but.
P
S
P
S
The
landscaping
plan
would
be
approved
and
a
different
point
once
it's
fully
developed,
so
that's
that
that
hasn't
even
been
presented
as
a
plan.
Yet
the
landscaping
plan
would
also
be
considered
in
the
corridor
design
overlay
certificate
of
appropriateness
process,
which
would
be
evaluated
by
Planning
and
Zoning.
So
none
of
this
has
to
satisfy
me.
It
only
has
to
satisfy
the
code.
L
O
A
N
I'm
going
to
have
my
discussions,
I'm
going
to
vote
YES
on
it,
but
at
the
same
time
I'm
going
to
vote
YES,
primarily
because
I
think
the
developer
did
not
handle
it
properly
going
in
so
I.
Don't
think
he's
do
of
variance
because
of
the
way
he
handled
I
think
he
comes
back
later
on
in
some
other
way
of
a
variance.
O
N
That
it
would
be
worth
considering,
but
I
do
think.
We
need
to
look
at
the
purpose
of
the
car
to
overlay
and
whether
or
not
I
totally
agree
that
you
don't
want
the
script
shopping
center,
like
where
the
quality
is,
for
example,
with
the
total
thing
out
there
on
the
old
60s
shopping.
Centers
I
totally
agree
my
family.
This
one,
though,
is
I.
Look
at
this
you've
read
for
businesses
in
with
less
pavement
visible
from
the
street.
Then
you
see
from
most
of
the
businesses
along
that
corridor.
N
Now
that
are
in
compliance
with
the
code,
but
it's
not
accomplishing
it.
I,
don't
think
it
accomplishes
the
purpose
so
I'm
going
to
maybe
like
I,
missed
eight
all
this
as
part
of
this
discussion,
because
I
will
ask
later
on
that
we'll
go
back
and
relook
at
that
code
and
see
if
there's
a
better
way
of
defining
when
this
thing
we're
looking
for
you
miss.

But
if
that

any

any

will
be
resolved
in

You
mayor,
as
you'll
recall
last
month
on
May
14th
out
of
executive
session,
you
made
a
motion
and
approved
the
purchase
of
1836
highway.
78
Monroe
Georgia
tax

ID

now
that
purchase
was
so
that
we
could
have
the
water
pump
station
for
the
local
water
line.
The
agreement
and
the
motion
was
a
purchase
price
of
250
with
a
cash
price
of
75
and
the
difference
being
a
tax
gift
through
numerous
iterations
with
the
seller.
T
So
our
office
hurriedly
drafted
an
amendment
and
I,
am
simply
asking
for
a
motion
to
modify
the
previous
motion
so
that
the
purchase
price
will
simply
be
seventy
five
thousand
dollars
cash
with
no
gift
element
involved,
and
if
that
motion
is
made,
then
we'll
be
able
to
consummate
this
transaction.
We've
already
got
everything
signed
pending.
Y'all's
approval
of
a
mod,
a
modified
motion
to
take
away
the
gift
element
of
the
purchase.
It
does
not
change
the
dollars
in
any
way.
Thank.
