Warrick: They have signed the conditions for the conditional use but not the large scale
The Planning Commission has a few determinations to make with regard to the large scale.
Estes: Staff, is there any information that you would like to provide the Commission at
this time with regard to this large scale development?
Conklin. We did receive a letter with regard to the request for the additional parking spaces.
That is the next item on the agenda, however, they are showing as a part of their large scale
development the additional parking spaces.
Estes: Is the applicant present?
Bates: Yes, sir I'm Geoff Bates with Crafton, Tull, and Associates.
Estes: Do you have a presentation you would like to make to the Commission?
Bates: This plan has been before you before. At that time, the building the was too large
and there wasn't enough parking so we've gone back and made the building as small as
feasiblely possible at this time. We've added additional parking from the plan before you last
time. This has been a very difficult site because it is surrounded by 3 streets. There is a street on
every side of it. On the back of it, there is an overhead power line so we're really locked in to
where we can put the building and.that.is why we have asked for the variance for the parking and
for 15 feet to five feet for landscaping. Before, when this was before you, it was okay to have a
five foot landscape area. They had not passed the new ordinance. Since then, they have also
revised the Master Street Plan. We worked really hard to try to comply with all the ordinances.
Since this is such a tough site, we had to go with what we have now. I feel this is a good,
workable plan. There is a lot of connectivity. We've moved some of the existing dumpsters to
the back. We can't really reduce the size of our building and have a feasible project due to the
cost of the lot. The Landscape Administrator, Ms. Hesse, and the Architectural Review
Committee for North Hills, have both approved the five foot landscape area and think it would be
fine. We plan to berm it up and work with Kim Hesse as much as possible to satisfy the city. Do
we need to wait to address the parking at this time?
Estes: The conditional use regarding parking in excess of that allowed by ordinance is
set as the next item on the agenda so let's stick with the agenda and handle it separately.
Bates: We provided two additional entrances for connectivity. One for the property to be
developed in the future and one to the existing office next to it now. If you have any questions,
I'll be glad to respond.
Estes: Commissioners, do you have any questions of this applicant at this time? Thank

you.
Public Comment
None.
Further Commission Discussion
Shackelford: Prior to beginning the conversation, I need to let you know that due to a conflict
of interest, I will be abstaining from the vote on both the large scale development and the
conditional use.
Estes: Thank you.
Hoffman: To summarize the Subdivision Committee discussions, we did find that the
elevations of the building met the design standards and they have complied with our request
regarding cross access between properties and have shown us elevations of the sign which we did
not have. They have also given us the approval of the Architectural Review Committee for the
development. I understand there was discussion about the landscaping. It's my understanding
that Kim Hesse had approved that based on putting in larger planting material and more mature
trees. I think Subdivision found that to be an acceptable trade off to get bigger plants.
MOTION
Commissioner Odom made a motion to approve large scale development 99-27 subject to
conditions and staff comments.
Commissioner Hoffman seconded the motion.
Estes: There is a motion to approve large scale development 99-27 and that motion has
been seconded. Is there any discussion? I have several questions I would like to ask of the
applicant and these questions regard massing and density of the project. This is 1.9 acres. Is that
correct?
Bates: I believe it is larger now since they are going to buy the additional land for the
parking lot and I don't believe that acreage was included in the latest report you have. I believe
it is over two acres now.
Estes:
Bates:
So we now have in excess of two acres?
2.4 acres, I believe.

Estes:
What percentage of the land area is to be occupied by the building?
Less than 20%.
And what percent is to be occupied by the parking area?
Bates: I'm showing 63% with the parking lot. That includes sidewalks and everything.
That is not just the parking. It's everything that is asphalt or concrete.
Estes: Is 83% then occupied by the building and the parking lot?

Roll Call
Upon roll call, the motion passed with a vote of 7-0-1. Commissioner Shackelford abstained.
Yes, sir.
Staff, in a C-2 zoning, what are the requirements regarding massing and density?
Under our Commercial Design Standards, you are required to have 15% open area
space and 85% for buildings and parking. They are meeting that requirement.
I have no other questions Any other discussion?
