A

In jesus name, we pray amen. Thank you.

B

Please stand with me as we pledge allegiance to our flag.

A

Of adjustments is a nine member board and we're appointed.

B

By the city council and we serve on a voluntary basis without compensation, our procedure for conducting business is, I will call the name of the petitioner. If you would please come forward to the podium speak clearly and and loudly into the mic and present your petition and then be prepared to answer any questions that any members of the board might have or anyone in the audience.

B

Anyone in the audience will be given the opportunity to come forth and voice their support or any opposition. Once we receive public testimony on a particular item, the members of the board will deliberate and we will render our decision.

B

I remind members with a personal or financial interest in any item you're required to recuse yourself from voting any testimony that is submitted by the petitioner or, on behalf of the petitioner during the presentation of the agenda item will be binding as to any decision board. The board makes relative to the motion.

B

I remind members of the board. If a motion to deny an item is made, a reason must be given this time I'll, introduce the members of the board that are here at this time. Miss kt brown, our vice chairman, miss mariko blair, mr george howell jr, mr jennifer shaw, mr pickett reese, and I'm john stanley. Your chairman.

B

Our staff that are here tonight miss tanya ingram and miss jovan hines, our recording secretary.

B

Just so that you are aware it takes five members or five votes to approve a motion. We have six here at this time. So if you feel like that, that is an insufficient number for your presentation. You, you are allowed to delay your presentation until next meeting. We are expecting another member to arrive any questions.

B

Tanya jovan. Do we have any withdrawals delays at this time.

A

B

Okay, thank you. We have nine items on the agenda and we'll go through them. One through nine.

B

First item is first item presented by charles and cathy lyles, requesting a street side yard variance for accessory structures to be located at 2468 capstone drive in an r85 zoning district. Mr lyles, you were here last time. Yes, sir, and you made your presentation.

B

Yes, uh I believe that we uh agreed and you agreed to delay your application until today. Yes, sir, to see if you could work out some agreement with your neighbors, yes, sir, have you been able to do that? We.

C

Did yes, sir, uh we actually met in our home in our home uh with several well five of the uh five of our neighbors actually throughout you know, fond meadows and the bond meadows home association, so they had a great representation there and we explained what we were looking to do or requesting to do, and we showed them the area, the backyard and the proposed location of the the structure, the one that will replace the existing structure. That was there.

C

We bought the home and the second structure, what was planned for it and how that would be done or built and- and some of that would be a lot of that second structure would be- would be built with wood taken from the existing structure. What could be used anyway? What was salvageable and all, but uh that's pretty pretty much it a nutshell: service uh rhonda lewis was there and uh their president alicia bozeman was there uh as well and three others so and we got we got a a a hundred percent.

C

Let's see how they ordered. It voted uh unanimous, yes for our plan, so it was a great experience very so.

B

So has your plan changed any, since uh we were here last time, uh not at all? No sir everything is the same saying yes, and I'm going to ask for any opposition. Of course. In case somebody happens to be here, yes, but you're, saying that what you are requesting is what tonight is what you had requested before, yes, sir, and that the homeowners association or the members that were there are in agreement with it.

B

Yes, sir 100, okay, uh any questions board members before I see if anyone is here is anyone in the audits who cares to address this particular item for our guest.

A

Will you entertain them I'll.

B

B

Motion carries thank you for your cooperation and making that happen. This way, it's supposed to happen.

C

Yes, sir, thank you. Thank you all.

B

Okay, thank you item two is presented by johnny johnson jr.

B

Requesting a height variance and a street yard variance for a privacy fence to be located at 667 marion drive in an r 75 s. Zoning district, mr johnson.

D

Yes, sir, first I'd like to apologize for missing the meeting last time and just pure stupidity on my card, I had the wrong date on my calendar. uh That's.

A

D

If you look at the.

B

Mr johnson you're going to have to speak directly thank.

D

You, if you look at the item label 2b, you can see it probably better than there. You go.

B

D

B

What's the purpose for the fence.

D

Well, uh I have a num a couple of trailers and I'm buying a boat, and I want to get them back out of the you know. I can't park them all in the garage or in the driveway, uh because whatever I get them behind a fence and I've had some thefts in the area before I had a cabinet conversion right out of my driveway, so I'd like to get it behind the fence.

B

And uh well, I don't know: if are you aware of the opposition not.

D

That I know nobody's complained to me and I've you've had your sign up twice now and uh I've had people walk by and ask me what it was about. I told him.

B

There's quite a few opposition here: we've got, we've got some emails from staff that we've been provided, so there is a certain amount of opposition to this expense, and this is the first time I've had an opportunity to review this. But why could you not just put that fence in line and not need a setback, because why could you not just put that fence.

B

Back where it ought to be well.

D

A very minimal backyard that would have without that extension. I just want the extra area. Yes, sir, and standing at the end of my driveway look up down grove park drive you can see about eight different yards that have fences out near the sidewalk or where the sidewalk would be on the streets that don't have one.

D

So I mean it's not so it's really uncommon or anything.

B

Well, I'm going to read this, but I'm not going to mention any names. um I say no to the request that house has been an eyesore for many years in the neighborhood.

B

The yard has recently had work done to clear the overgrowth they're there. For years of neglect, the fence will only hide to continue to neglect to the property.

B

D

That has nothing to do with the fence, but I will tell you: there was a my ex-wife actually owns the house, shanghai johnson, I am the resident I paid for, and I've lived there for 30 years. We recently redid the roof. All the trees that are shown in that picture are gone. We just recently cleared the entire lot of every tree, intolerable bush and I was waiting for a decision on this fence to have some greeting come in done.

B

And removed another comment here says my main: opposition of the fence is based on the fact that the variants will place the fence at an unacceptable distance to the sidewalk.

D

Okay, looking at it, it would be approximately six and a half feet set back.

B

But I'm just I'm just telling you and and also your driveway, is there okay right, there's a sidewalk there correct sure, okay! So your back coming and going um with blocking visibility of that. uh Well,.

D

It's roughly where the fence I'm going to put up will be about 16 and a half feet from the curb, so I'll have.

C

D

C

D

C

I'm going to stop before.

D

I get in the street to see what traffic may be becoming even sidewalk traffic.

B

I'm just looking at the comments from opposition. Okay, I understand I wasn't aware you're trying to I mean I'm looking at many comments here. Do not approve this variance.

B

You know total opposition traffic hazard not having clear vision to this intersection detrimental to the value of homes. We don't deal with values and economics related to property, but that is a comment and obviously more comments about lack of maintaining the property.

D

So there has been a problem again. This goes back to the divorce.

B

Situation so we just recently.

D

Re-Roofed I said we took down all the trees want to do some landscaping and trying to bring it back to snuff. So it's been.

B

A kind of long, okay, any uh comments or questions of the petitioner, ms brown.

A

Has any of the neighbors made any comments to you pertaining to this.

D

No, I have a ongoing argument with a neighbor on the mary ann's side about maintaining a fence back there. I want him to pay half of replacing and he don't want to. He said I put the fence up. I have to replace it, but that's neither here or there for this particular request, but um I'm going to do something about that anyway. I just but in fact that may be one of the guys that sent in.

B

Let me make a suggestion: we can vote on it and approve it or deny it. Okay. Maybe you need to go back and clean up your yard and then come back later uh and and move that fence back some away from the side.

D

Well, there's an existing fence. Now that runs from the corner of the half of the house across there and he's replacing badly. I didn't want to replace it, so you know I did this and I really can't get in there that whole area that's outlining the yellow block, was full of trees. Before and like I said, they're all gone now, there's a lot of tree stumps and some grinding, and it just needs somebody getting there with a tractor box.

D

Yes, additionally, the whole rest of the backyard was full of tree stumps and stuff too, so it doesn't make sense to try and create part of it and do the other half on the other side of the pencil with him. Right again, just you know, put up the new face and grade the whole thing down.

B

I'm giving you my comments and suggestions having been on this board many many years and know what we look for and what we uh like and don't like. Okay, okay, I'm just giving you my comment for whatever that's worth.

D

So you want me to go ahead and do all the grading and stuff first and then come back.

B

I'll just give I'm making a suggestion. uh You can delay this and come back later after you've cleaned it up and maybe found out who your opposition was and talk to them, or we can vote on it. I'll give you that choice.

E

D

I'm getting a vibe, that's not good sir. He said I'm getting a vibe, it's not a good idea to get a boat right now.

B

Miss brown: you got a question.

A

Do you know your next door neighbor, do you know your next door neighbor.

D

Not intimately I'm much pretty much a recluse and they because my house faces marianne, the way it curves. I'm sorry, I don't talk to the folks who are booked on parkside grove, parkside and uh I mean I've. I've talked to them, but we don't have any kind of relationship to steer coffee or anything like that. You know, but.

A

D

Have no idea who uh these you said: there were like four comments there, several seven pages.

E

D

Can I get copies of those? No sir.

A

Yeah we can send.

B

A

Them it's public record.

B

That she would have to give them to you, okay, okay, and that may help you um lord. I recommend we delay this and have the tissue come back later uh when he has addressed all of this, with his neighbors and and cleaned up the place. Okay, I have a motion to approve that request. Will delay have a second.

A

B

Second, all in favor of the motion raise your hand. Okay, thank you. Three times.

A

You're, better off.

B

For us to do that, rather than us vote on it, because if it were denied, you couldn't come back for a year. Thank you, okay. Thank you.

B

Item three is presented by camisha lewis, requesting a special exception to place an additional mobile home for living purposes to be located at 230 silly lane in lagun district.

B

Ms lewis, here.

B

Well, jovan will delay that to the next meeting unless she shows up later.

F

So I look over there from time to time and it's I actually like the lighting. It's very bright over there.

B

How many square feet is this space.

F

It's about 4 000 and some change. I don't know the approximate um square footage it may be like 46, 62 or something, but it's it has like a lot of back storage, storage areas and um wheelchairs.

B

I'm very familiar with the center and I'm very I'm familiar with space.

F

That space used to be it actually used to be a bar.

No exterior events parking lot lighting has got to be on while you are operating. Yes,.

F

B

Exterior lighting- yes, that's big time um and your customers cannot come and go out the back door, except in the case of an emergency. Yes,.

F

B

The reason being you're backing up to a residential neighborhood. Yes, sir, we're trying to minimize the amount of traffic going out your back door, okay, yes, sir! Now I understand employees have to do it, maybe take out trash and the door has to be available for customers to exit in the event of an emergency. Yes,.

F

B

But that cannot be a main point of access for your customers. Yes,.

F

B

All parking for your customers got to be in front of the building. Yes,.

F

Sir, what about my employees can we park in the back.

B

Sure, okay yeah, I said I didn't hear you I'm giving you what's customary here, but we realize that your customer, your your employees, are going to come in and out the back door. Yes,.

F

B

And delivers yes, sir we're more concerned about what what happens. You know after 10 o'clock at night.

A

B

Because you got neighbors behind you that may or may not be disturbed by noise right. Okay, and if you violate any of these conditions, then we can withdraw on approval.

F

B

Any question board members: yes,.

A

Mr brown, what's the age of those uh customers.

F

Well, we we, we were thinking um that we would like to do. We would like to stay 25 and up, but we we talked within um ourselves and 21 being the legal drinking age. We we we're kind of up in the air right now. As far as whether or not we're going to allow 21.

F

we, I don't really want to do 21.

A

But I don't know, I understand that legal age being 21 for the drinking, but you are going to have uh events.

A

That's my main concern the age of those that will be admitted into the event center.

F

No it won't, it won't be it won't be anyone under the age of 21.

A

No matter which area they're in well, it doesn't matter what area they're in it. They must be 21.

F

A

F

And even just just to come in just to be in there, yes, ma'am, everyone will have to be 21, because I I will be running you know alcoholic beverages and cocktails and things of that nature, so everyone will be required. Even my employees will have to be 21.. Thank you. What about.

B

F

um I'm talking to some licensed and bonded security companies as we speak, um trying to get some people lined up and already you know in place. I do it like. I said I do a lot of djing, so I work with a lot of licensed and bonded security companies, so.

B

Are you going to have security inside and outside the building? Yes, sir, while you're open? Yes, sir okay, so you have security inside and outside. Yes, sir, are this going to be uniform security, so people understand who they are? Yes, sir,.

F

At all times they will have, they will have they just won't. It won't just be somebody that just put on a shirt, it's gonna be someone who can show you know that they that's their job like that's what they do.

B

Okay, any other questions, yeah.

A

B

A

B

Michelle go ahead. You go ahead.

A

Okay, you said that it's an event center, which means that you'll be uh probably hosting wedding receptions and that kind of thing well, it would be.

F

More, like women's empowerment conferences, we may have some things of that nature, where it will be like different events going on. Do you understand what I'm saying.

A

Yeah, but I'm just saying that you're not going to it's not going to be rented out for receptions, wedding receptions or birthday parties, no ma'am and and that kind of thing no ma'am, but you're going to be open seven days a week. That's our plan.

F

But you know how the economy is right now everybody's not coming out like they used to so some days. I may have to be closed because I'm also a school teacher, so I may not want to be open.

F

So after dealing with dad every day, I may not say no, I'm not gonna be there, so I may not be there. I may not be open seven days. I I have to look at plan everything out and but I just wanted to put what I what I want to do.

F

You know what my plan is to do, but I may not be open seven days.

A

Okay, so just to clarify you're going to have a member of your staff there ever all during your hours of operation, yes ma'am and then also what what type of businesses are um located next to your facility.

F

The only thing that's actually open for business now is the sundown restaurant that he spoke of, and then I think one two, I think maybe three doors down from me: they're empty and then there's another restaurant sally t's cafe is right there and then there's a package store on the far end. There's aaron's, rent, aaron's renter center or something right. It's right there and then the bank is on the far end.

B

But you say the owner of the center has agreed to lease this to you. He.

F

Has I have a, I have a a draft lease that I I'm pretty like waiting? Yes, very well, you're, john watson. Yes, yes, sir great.

B

Yeah great guy yeah.

F

The realtor awesome.

B

Yeah, um mr howell, you had a question. Yes,.

C

Have you ever run a place like this before yourself.

F

I I've never. I've never ran an actual establishment like this, but, like I said, I've been teaching as well as djing for about 22 years and I've just been like renting other venues and throwing you know. Events.

A

F

I'm just trying to eliminate renting other people's stuff and doing my own thing pretty much.

A

C

We have had experience with places like this and you sound like you know what you're doing, which is good. Yes, sir, uh some people have good intentions and expect everybody to act right, and that doesn't always happen right. What we have seen is at two o'clock in the morning when the owner's not there, somebody wants to crank up the sound system and open the back door and have a party that runs all the way through the building.

C

uh Nobody wants that, and I don't know what your liquor license is going to control, but anyway, that's what we're trying to avoid is bothering anybody else that doesn't want to have. This doesn't want to do this see this hear it whatever right um very familiar with places like this and that's all any.

B

Other questions is anyone.

F

In the audience, can I speak on that? um Yes, you won't have to worry about that by by me, being you know the owner of what I'm trying to do. You won't have to worry about that. I'm also the dj so I'll be in control of the music. So.

C

That's very important.

F

B

Is anyone else care to address this item.

B

Nobody here to care, I got a question jovan tanya. uh All these comments want to make sure they are of record.

A

You want to read about what I have uh sure. Okay, I have no exterior events or music exterior lighting, while open back doors for employee use or emergency exit only secure on-site security, while in operation did. I miss anything.

B

They exterior lighting that needs to apply to parking lot lighting.

A

Right, okay, you also said if the parking is to be in the front.

B

And all parking for customers for customers in the front.

A

B

Parking in the rears for employees only yes,.

F

B

And access in and out is employee only or.

F

B

Use and deliveries and delivery.

A

Right also for the legal drinking for the age of you well, she's got to.

B

Comply with that anyway, but you you, you know you got to comply with: what's legal from a drinking stamp. Yes, sir 21.

A

Since she has an event center, that's why you need to state that in there.

E

One one-on-one.

C

To say, she's also.

A

Got to go to city council for her liquor license as well. Oh okay,.

B

Okay, that's the foot fence that that's existing.
