But we just called in an order version. 00:00:02
Call to order. 00:00:08
The July 6, 2022 Vineyard City Planning Commission meeting. 00:00:10
We'll start with an invocation or inspirational thought. I'm going to give an inspirational thought on the protection of property 00:00:17
right. So in the state of Utah, the legislature created the role of the state property rights on busman. The role of the property 00:00:24
rights on busman is to ensure the protection of property rights of citizens of Utah and provide an intermediary individual that 00:00:30
can ensure cities and municipalities and other entities that. 00:00:37
Oversee and have ordinance control over properties. 00:00:44
Use that that authority appropriately and don't infringe your property rights. So me personally, and I think everybody in here can 00:00:48
say, I mean, that's an important role. Nobody wants to infringe your property rights. And with that role, the property rights 00:00:54
ombudsman citizens have the ability to use a mediation service and arbitration to to essentially negotiate with us and ensure that 00:01:00
that what we do. 00:01:06
Is in line with maintaining their property rights and I think especially here Utah County and in Vineyard we are all for 00:01:13
protecting property rights and also this should be aware that they have. 00:01:18
That free resource from the state. So if you ever feel like you're not getting out of us what we need, and I don't honestly, I 00:01:24
don't think that'll happen. We have a great community development here, but that's a resource that is open and nobody should be 00:01:30
afraid to to use that to help communicate with the city when it comes to ensuring their rights are maintained. Yeah. And I've got 00:01:36
just like a quick thing to add to that when I wasn't talking with Heights, we had. 00:01:42
It was that's a city that gets a ton of short term rentals because of the basic cotton cannon and we had a an ordinance that put a 00:01:49
cap on the number of short term rentals. 00:01:54
However, still allowed through a conditional use permit. And so we had a developer who you know, was upset because it was allowed 00:02:00
through the code, but then there was a cap. So he's like, why would you allow it in your code if it's a use I can't even apply for 00:02:07
because we wouldn't accept applications. He's like then the senior code, however you put a cap on, but you still you shouldn't be 00:02:13
in your code anyway. It was like it was kind of a confusing thing. And so we went to the property. 00:02:19
Rides and Buzzman and you know he actually helped us from going into a lawsuit and and he and it was funny he found kind of a a a 00:02:27
middle ground between between both of us and. 00:02:31
You know, we weren't, you know, thrilled with it, but we were still happy, you know, had said some loved ones. So it was, it was a 00:02:36
good way to to kind of escape going through the long process of a lawsuit and, you know, and it helped us get a better code put in 00:02:42
place ultimately, so. 00:02:47
All right, we'll move on to open session. It's time dedicated for public comment. Are there any comments from the public? 00:02:55
Alright, we'll go ahead and close the open session and we'll move to minutes review and approval. So we're doing June 1st and June 00:03:06
22nd. 00:03:11
Did everyone have a chance to review those minutes? 00:03:20
Yeah, I reviewed the June 1st minutes. I was not here for the June 22nd, but I did catch up with Morgan afterwards and looks too. 00:03:24
Be accurate there. So unless it has any objections, I make a motion that we approve the minutes. 00:03:33
Britain, yes, we're good a second. We have to do a roll call. I on that. All right, All in favour. Aye, aye. 00:03:39
All right, we'll move on to the number four business item, Science standard waiver, Southwest Spine and Pain. 00:03:49
OK, thanks. My name is Brian. I'm Amaya. I'm a planner here in the Community Development department. 00:04:00
This application was originally approved in AIR. It came through with a sign application. And then we noticed that they were 00:04:08
proposing 3 exterior wall signs on the northern elevation and that would typically trigger a science standard waiver. And so we 00:04:14
have to put it back through the pipeline. 00:04:21
And so, yeah, the applicant provided us some amended plans and basically we're going to show them to you and we'll read you kind 00:04:30
of the criteria for what, how you guys could choose to approve those or what conditions you can attach those or you can deny them. 00:04:37
They're proposing a total of 10 exterior wall signs at the Southwest Spine and Pain Building. The address is 691 E 400 N is at the 00:04:44
Yard B. 00:04:51
And it's basically down to. 00:04:59
The zoning code isn't super, super explicit as to like how many can be approved. It's kind of the judgment call of the Planning 00:05:04
Commission would be the ultimate authority on on that. So just let me show you their their plans. So here's the location. 00:05:12
So we got the megaplex here, Yard A, here's the yard B, the southern portion. So there's a distance north of Edgewater Townhome 00:05:21
complex. 00:05:25
And I'm going to go down to the plant site here and zoom out a little bit. 00:05:30
So this was part of the original approval, but. 00:05:43
This we counted AS2 separate signs. 00:05:47
And they have other signs on different elevations. Why is that 2 separate signs? 00:05:51
Because if, if I'm correct, the applicant is here, Olivia with creative signs, it's for two different businesses that are there. 00:05:59
Yeah, sure. Would you like to come out on that specifically? I have a few other notes that I'd like to get there, but you're more 00:06:12
than welcome to. 00:06:15
OK. All right. Awesome. Perfect. Yeah. Thank you. 00:06:20
So the way that they've done this application is that they are showing us all the potential locations for future signs of of the 00:06:25
expected tenants that they'll have at some future point. And so they've been they've outlined those with red boxes and when those 00:06:32
tenants come in then their their wall signs can be approved individually and separately as as those tenants come in. So in total 00:06:39
they are proposing 10. 00:06:46
And like I said, currently on the north elevation, there's to our understanding, there's, there's three. 00:06:55
I'm going to read the criteria for how you guys can judge whether or not these six extra exterior wall signs would be merited or 00:07:02
or would be approved. 00:07:10
So there there's criteria that touch on. 00:07:21
Quality, height, sign area and design features and materials. The two that are most relevant to this application are placement and 00:07:26
quantity. And let's just go through and read each of these. I'll try to be quick. I'll sign shall be placed where they are visible 00:07:33
and legible. Factors should be considered include its location relative to traffic, movement and access points, site features, 00:07:41
other structures, and orientation relative to viewing distances. 00:07:48
Insight Triangles All signs may be approved on building walls other than the wall space occupied by the tenant in commercial 00:07:55
centers in which some tenants have little or no visibility from the street. 00:08:01
And then in terms of quantity, it says the number of signs that may be approved within any development shall be sufficient to 00:08:08
provide necessary facilitation of internal circulation of vehicular and processing traffic and wayfinding for safety of the 00:08:14
occupants of vehicle and pedestrians. Factors to be considered shall be those that impact safety considerations such as the size 00:08:20
of the development and the number of development sub areas. 00:08:26
So in reading the criteria for placement, I think you can make an argument for. 00:08:33
Location and you can make an argument for quantity and in terms of sorry I. 00:08:39
I meant to say an argument for visibility and an argument for legibility. And in terms of quantity I think you can make an 00:08:47
argument for wayfinding and the size of the development because it is a pretty large building where several businesses will will 00:08:52
be held at some point. 00:08:58
And I guess I should also state the code section so the code reads that you can have. 00:09:06
One exterior wall sign per elevation and a total of 4. 00:09:14
Except approved through a signed standard waiver. 00:09:18
So. 00:09:22
Yeah, basically there's pros and cons to approving that amount of exterior wall signs. You will add that visibility and visibility 00:09:25
to the businesses that are there. You increase the awareness. It helps with economic development for the city. 00:09:33
And we want all of our new businesses to succeed and thrive. But the cons are obviously, I think from an aesthetic standpoint 00:09:43
where you can have too many signs on, on one building and it can be cluttered and then reduce the aesthetic of the overall 00:09:49
building of the development and the community as a whole. 00:09:56
We don't have a recommendation per SE other than you guys should weigh the things that I've just mentioned and we have provided 00:10:04
some potential motions basically approval or denial of of that. 00:10:10
So, Olivia, you're welcome to come in the stand and explain the proposal if you'd like. 00:10:18
Brian, will you just go back up to the display of the signs? Yeah, the plan set. 00:10:26
Yeah, just to to give an image of, of what it'll look like or the areas that they're proposing. Yeah. And how many potential 00:10:32
tenants did you say there were in the building? Maybe Olivia can speak to that. Yeah, so sorry, is this going on? Do I need a? 00:10:38
OK. So as far as potential tenants, so just to I'll explain the dynamic first so you can understand where I come into play and the 00:10:47
situation of the tenants. So we are fabricating, installing, permitting all of these signs. We've worked with Vineyard City before 00:10:55
and installed signs and you guys are great to work with and I'm happy to be here today. 00:11:03
As far as accidentally, she's submitted the the application, she's in our permits department, she's. 00:11:12
Good with all that clerical work, really helps us out in that area. But I work directly with Southwest Spine and, you know, with 00:11:19
my clients. 00:11:23
Because when it comes to sign permitting and everything, they don't always have a full understanding and they're not quite as 00:11:29
experienced. So they asked for our help to come in and, you know, see what we can do to help them to, you know, get the most other 00:11:34
science. So as far as the dynamics with the with the tenants. 00:11:40
So Vineyard Surgery Center. 00:11:48
Southwest and Vista, they're all sister companies. So Vineyard Surgery Center is obviously surgery and you know they're related to 00:11:50
Southwest and Vista's, but they don't want to. 00:11:58
You know, direct. 00:12:07
Their patients over to Southwest clinical because it's not where they need to go for surgery and it's also not who the 00:12:11
correspondence is going to be through. So the definition between Southwest. 00:12:19
Surgery Center and SW Clinical and Vineyard Surgery Center is important because of that reason. And Vista Healthcare in Southwest, 00:12:29
they're more of the sister companies. 00:12:35
So. 00:12:43
I will say, so they, they created Vineyard Surgery Center specifically for this location, right? So obviously they know where 00:12:45
they're going. That's more of a wayfinding sign and that's why it is only located on that front elevation. So when they drive up 00:12:51
to the building, these are the patients. When they drive up to the building, they can be like, oh, it's on the left side of the 00:12:58
building. That's where I'm going Southwest and Vista and they're more of the, the sister companies. 00:13:05
And it's it's two different. 00:13:12
I guess notes they have a Vista location down in Spanish work and then they also have Southwest locations elsewhere. So it's 00:13:18
important that both of those locals are on there as well. 00:13:24
I was considering it one sign, but if we want to consider it as two separate logos put together. So if we want to consider it as 2 00:13:32
signs, that's more than OK as far as the dynamic with the tenant to the building Southwest. 00:13:40
Vista Vineyard, Surgery Center, et cetera, they are the majority like renter at that building. They helped the builder come up 00:13:49
with the finances to fund this project. So they're a partial owner of the building as well. 00:13:58
And then there will be two more tenants possibly that may come in and and fill in later. And the reason for obviously the 00:14:08
locations is it was well stated that wayfinding and viewable from those busy streets where traffic will be passing by. 00:14:16
And they also wanted to give their tenants the same opportunity. That made sense, right? Because wayfinding for the front and 00:14:25
then. 00:14:29
You know traffic and viewable space from the other sides. 00:14:35
And I I would like to also clarify that. 00:14:41
There's not like. 00:14:45
Multiple logos on it. So you're not going to see like this done Southwest on the same elevation that Vista and Southwest are on. 00:14:47
So they're kind of spread out. They are where each location is, where each tenant is going to be. And that's kind of the spiel 00:14:54
that doesn't even have any questions. I think that was it. That last point was a good clarification that on the same side, you're 00:15:01
not going to see the same logo or signage in there twice, OK. 00:15:09
OK, yes. 00:15:17
And I know the plans are kind of hard. So the building so wide that we had a hard time getting a good picture from so far back. So 00:15:20
they're kind of they are kind of paneled together. 00:15:24
But it it kind of shows. 00:15:30
One thing I would like to clarify is the southwest on that second drop down set of plans. So the middle set, the middle picture I 00:15:34
guess that's obviously on the South facing side and then right around the corner is that bottom West facing. So since they are 00:15:42
sister companies, they're closer together, but they're just right around from the corner from each other. And that was our attempt 00:15:49
to try to spread things out because we understand. 00:15:57
It is a second thing and we want to make the building work nice. I mean, the tenants want the building to look nice. And I do 00:16:05
believe they're also requesting for their tenants to keep their signs black and white. So all, all of the signs, no matter the 00:16:11
tenant will be black and white and that will help not make it look as cluttered or you know it, it'll still be aesthetically 00:16:17
pleasing. 00:16:23
Olivia, can I interview quick second? Yeah, I just wanted to also point out to the Commission that. 00:16:29
So our our code allows for a 5%. 00:16:37
Of the total. 00:16:42
Building facade to be allowed for signage and in no case there's any side of the building exceed they're allowed 5% so. 00:16:45
The north facing elevation which has the most number of signs. 00:16:57
Has a 3.62%, the South facing 2.3%, the West facing 4% and the east facing 2.25%. So they stayed within. 00:17:02
The allowed size sign area. 00:17:16
I just wanted, I just want to point that out. Oh, sorry. And that's including the future tenants as well. Yeah, I did a 00:17:19
calculation for all the proposed signs. 00:17:23
Is there? 00:17:30
Like a. 00:17:33
For example, a monument sign. 00:17:36
Outside of the building, indicating who is in the building, Yeah, there's not. 00:17:39
Just they don't have a very good location for it. And as I'm sure you could see from like the the site plan, they have their 00:17:45
building and then directly to the South or the West of their building is. 00:17:53
And it's not their land, you know, So the main entrance where people are coming in, they don't have access to. So is there just 00:18:01
the one entrance? 00:18:05
I mean, there's like emergency exits right there is they're all coming from the front one preferred. They're all coming from the 00:18:11
north side. 00:18:15
Right now. 00:18:23
And just to clarify, on the monument sign, there is one on the, it looks like they just got the South, the Science Center waiver 00:18:28
approved at the last Planning Commission, but that's for like the Top Golf development and that's on 400 N And then I'm not sure 00:18:36
what street that is the East, but entering into the development from there, I'm sure that there is a monument sign there. 00:18:44
OK. All right. 00:18:53
I'm trying to think of how I've seen this done. 00:18:58
Hopefully this helps a little bit so this entrance. 00:19:02
Here on the West through the northwest, is that correct, Olivia? And then another entrance on the east side. Yeah, the majority of 00:19:06
their traffic is coming from that N Northwest side, just because, you know, you get a lot of people coming off of I-15 heading 00:19:12
southbound. 00:19:17
And these are all the sign locations for future tenants too. So it's not anticipated to be yes. And then we have also, so it's not 00:19:28
like you're going to approve future tenants and then like they're going to come in and like build these huge signs. We've 00:19:34
restricted their area to those red squares defined in the plans. 00:19:40
I think there's also going to be a building here on this parcel. 00:19:48
That my my conceal further conceal this building, the West side of this building at some point. 00:19:52
And the only sign that's on that West side is on the West South side. 00:20:03
And it's the worst outside in the South side, around those two corners. And those are the sister companies that we tried to kind 00:20:08
of break up a little bit. 00:20:13
So my my opinion on this is I think it makes a lot of sense in this situation. I do think we need to understand that. 00:20:20
If any other building that goes in around this, we'll look at that as normal and probably expect that which, which may be 00:20:27
appropriate. But I, I think it, we just need to understand it like whatever goes in first becomes the expectation or even like the 00:20:34
the minimum. So as long as we understand that and if there's things in the code that I think that we feel like we need to be 00:20:42
clearer on or as we went through this that wasn't that clear. This wouldn't necessarily apply right now for tonight, but I think. 00:20:49
An area that we look at cleaning up, whether it be, you know, making everything uniform like these ones are electing to do, even 00:20:57
though they don't have to necessarily with the black and white. 00:21:01
It's so that all of them match if there are multiple on the same side. So I'm just thinking ahead a little bit about what we could 00:21:08
do as Planning Commission and staff to reduce the amount of questions that might come up with a Gray area. But it I mean, the 00:21:14
whole point of the Science Center waiver is to kind of live in the Gray area too. So I understand that. 00:21:20
But those are my main comments. How do you think that this makes sense? When I first read it and thought like 10 times, that is a 00:21:26
lot for four sided building, but you know, it makes a little more sense here, especially from a wayfinding standpoint. 00:21:32
I think your strongest ground that you can stand on seasoning for that is for future people that want to come in and get more 00:21:39
signs is that we are within your 5% restriction. And that's, that's usually just a good rule, general rule, working with a lot of 00:21:46
cities. That's the thing that we deal with a lot and really helpful to us as well. So then we know we're not going over the top, 00:21:54
but also being able to get the signs needed. Yeah. Oh, the other thing that I think would be important. 00:22:01
Moving forward, they're not proposing this, but I don't think we want to see the same sign twice on. 00:22:09
The same side. 00:22:17
And, you know, thankfully they're not proposing that, but I think that may be something that we would want to explicitly call out 00:22:20
moving forward. At least I think it would look strange to have. So yeah, I mean, I definitely agree with you. A part of the issue 00:22:25
that we run into is the. 00:22:30
10 of Gilbert Oh yeah, you can't restrict the content and you can do the form timing if it flashes, that kind of stuff. But the 00:22:36
content First Amendment, we're limited. 00:22:42
I don't have any concerns. 00:22:53
OK, thanks. Do you have a proposed motion language? 00:22:57
There's a couple in here. Yeah, I'll pull that up, yeah. 00:23:03
There we go. 00:23:13
Yeah. So these are just standard conditions that I have to do with, you know, obeying our local and regional ordinances and then 00:23:22
pay any outstanding fees and things like that. But you guys haven't mentioned any additional conditions to that. So I think these 00:23:28
those motions just work as they're written so. 00:23:34
I'll make a motion. 00:23:41
I move to approve the sign standard waiver application as requested by Ali Taylor with Creative Science with proposed conditions 00:23:43
and. 00:23:46
I'll second that. 00:23:52
All in favor, aye aye. 00:23:54
I'm opposed, sorry. It's fine that it goes through, but I am opposed to, well, not necessarily actually, if you're, if, if you're, 00:23:59
if you're a quorum of only three, all three have to. I don't love how the cluttered feeling it's going to like it's large 00:24:06
building. I live right by it. Like I understand the depth and breadth and that we want people to get to the right places. 00:24:13
And I love that it's all under 5%. 00:24:22
Per per elevation I. 00:24:27
I'm not thrilled that we're taking it from our Max of four to 10. 00:24:32
Umm and I I don't love the precedent that sets for future. 00:24:39
Development. 00:24:45
I feel like it's going to be a bigger fight later with other people. 00:24:47
Who want something? I'm sure they're all going to want to look the best, right? But. 00:24:52
Perhaps they're going to offer something that feels more cluttered and we won't have a leg to stand on for non approving it. 00:24:59
Because we have approved this. Does that make sense? 00:25:06
Now that there wasn't an explicit maximum of four signs called out, is that correct? 00:25:10
No, here I'll read you the code section it says. 00:25:16
Work here. Well, one for elevation. Maximum of four, except as approved through a signed standard waiver, including projecting 00:25:23
signs. 00:25:28
So. 00:25:37
Yeah. And I said the same concerns as far as you know, the precedent set in this situation uniquely I feel feel like it makes 00:25:38
sense. But yeah, I, I share the same concern about right. And I'm always happy to take it case by case, which is why we have the 00:25:45
waiver. And I appreciate the thought and the detail. It all looks really nice. 00:25:51
So your concern is mainly. 00:26:00
Olivia. 00:26:04
So it sounds like your concerns. 00:26:07
Just with the multiple signs and then yeah, cluttered feeling the the precedent that it sets for. 00:26:11
Literally everything that comes through after that makes sense. Yeah, for sure I would. I would like to also. 00:26:21
Not clarify because we know this already, but there is an emphasis, emphasis on the multi tenant building, right. And it's not 00:26:32
just. 00:26:35
If there is. 00:26:41
One sign for every four sides or unless approved by a standard sign waiver. But that's kind of the, the main push here, right, is 00:26:42
that it's for multiple tenants. And I, I, I think that there's understanding in that, especially among the community. And it is a 00:26:50
surgery center and a clinic doctors, you know. 00:26:59
Do want to make their people feel like they're taken care of and they do get. 00:27:08
A lot of of a lot of senior citizens coming to their building, so it's really important. Wayfinding is is their number one 00:27:14
concern, mainly getting off the street and into their parking lot. 00:27:21
And and. 00:27:29
Apply for them. What we'd rather do is just have a sign code that's very functional and and and works that you don't need to get 00:28:01
waivers for every single time. And so yeah, we should be rolling that out in the next month. We'll we'll be probably coming to you 00:28:08
with a in a, in a work session with a new code. And after that code is approved regardless of what happened in the past, 00:28:14
everything moving forward would have to meet that code. OK and according to that. 00:28:21
This in the works where did would this fit in there with this still require a signed standard waiver so you'd be able to limit the 00:28:28
the the the number of of signs. So it it all depends on what the the council wants to do. 00:28:35
So if you want to just do an overall percentage, like not to exceed 10% of a, of a, of a building or an elevation frontage, you 00:28:43
can limit the number you can limit, you know, like the height, the, the, the square footage and those kind of things. 00:28:53
Decided on that 5% per elevation, when was that last year? Yeah, that was in, I think that was around December that we changed it, 00:29:04
yeah. 00:29:09
December, November. I'm trying to remember our full conversation around it. 00:29:16
How many entrances are there to this building? Just the one at the north? 00:29:21
Exit, I mean there's the exit sign and I think that there might be like 2 sub entrances from the sides, but I'm pretty sure the 00:29:27
main one that most people are going to be going to is just that main one on the north side. They can, the way that it flows, they 00:29:34
can exit from those two sides and then there's emergency exits on the back. 00:29:41
But the main entrance is from that front side. 00:29:49
Yeah. Like I don't need us to be like Jamestown and Provo where we have, yeah, an address and that's it. But. 00:29:54
Well, I've worked in Orem, and I mean, we all know how crazy Orem is with their signs, right? And I mean I. 00:30:05
Your town is very beautiful and there's a very good aesthetics and I can respect how you guys, you know, handle your businesses. 00:30:14
I've I've heard all good things and I think that there is also, you know, something to be said. I really like to hear you're 00:30:22
completely right. Vineyard in Utah County is really, I guess you could say, well known for their property rights and. 00:30:30
I think that, I mean personally it's. 00:30:39
It is kind of about the rights of their property right. That's why we apply for variances and that's why we apply for I mean it's 00:30:44
not called variance in your guys's city code. It's called a a permit or a standard sign waiver. But with it being multi tenant. 00:30:52
That's kind of where this property rights comes into play for, for the applicant or for for Southwest sign and their future 00:31:02
tenants as well. My kind of opinion or my opinion is I mean with that area how it's being built up. 00:31:09
I mean, the wayfindings would be critical. You're going to have so many buildings and so much congestion. We don't have them doing 00:31:18
massive signs on the street to show, you know what's in each building. So we don't have that kind of display. So if we have a A4 00:31:24
sided building like this that has architectural elements and it can assure people can see what's in that building, no matter which 00:31:30
direction they're coming from, whether it's the residential area, top golf, movies, whatever, they can see it's there. 00:31:35
I I have no no problem with it, but I do think in the future code you know we could take into account to ensure. 00:31:43
That design concept of for design, 4 sided design, that sizing, brightness of lights, things like that. And then maybe take into 00:31:50
account too if there's street signs or no street signs. Because I can see if there were street signs here, you know, on entrance 00:31:56
saying what's there, then they'd know. And then you just have one sign on the building. But without some of those other signage 00:32:03
the other complexes would have. That's I think does have a little bit of a need. 00:32:09
And I'm sure that SW would be happy to accept a condition like, you know, after 9:00. 00:32:15
The signs go off or something because yeah, there's like a, there's a photo cell that we can program to have them turn off, but. 00:32:22
Yeah. Just trying to get your thoughts, yeah. 00:32:30
OK, Olivia, can I ask a question? 00:32:34
And this might be something you need to think about maybe with your, with your company. Is every sign that you guys have proposed, 00:32:40
is every sign crucial to the success of your, of your businesses and your tenants? Like, is there possibly a loan number that can 00:32:46
be that we can discuss at this moment? Or is that even a conversation that you don't feel ready to have potentially? Well, you 00:32:52
know, I is, is that something that would appease Commissioner Govinson? 00:32:58
Like would that be something that you would consider? 00:33:06
Like I guess reducing bringing, bringing, bringing 10 signs to 8 signs or or some number that both parties could you know? 00:33:11
Discuss. Yeah, I mean. 00:33:24
It's so, so silly too. 00:33:29
Take her over numbers. It's fine. OK, I. 00:33:31
I think aesthetically it would be nice if. 00:33:39
That were just two pro elevation. 00:33:42
But I like how I did that front 1, so that makes a little difficult. 00:33:48
OK. 00:33:54
I'm feeling comfortable with the. 00:33:55
With them all being under 5%. 00:34:00
Elevation and. 00:34:03
That we have something in the works so I don't have future fights on my hands. 00:34:05
Yeah, OK, Sorry. I did like the idea of just in in the future thought if they're facing residential areas, having the lights go 00:34:10
off at night, just something to keep in mind. I don't have any opinion on this, but yeah. 00:34:18
It'd be nice. That could be a condition of approval that you guys are assigned to us. These are like eight to five things, right? 00:34:25
Yeah, yeah. 00:34:31
Yeah, yeah. That's, that's probably something you guys could tack on to this that patient if you'd like. 00:34:38
Since you have a motion, you if you wanted to amend the motion of whoever made the motion, then this person is second it would be 00:34:43
to accept the amendment and then you would you would re vote on that If you added a condition, so the condition you said is during 00:34:51
a time frame they could turn the lights off. Yeah, generally it's I mean summertime it doesn't really get dark until 9:00. So 00:34:58
cities will allow till 10:00 and then just make it the same year round cities. 00:35:05
Differently, some say a certain amount of time after balance or amount of time after desk. But if you know if it's something, what 00:35:13
do you usually like to make? It's usually easier to do that. 00:35:18
Same time, you know, I think with the car washes we talked about not 9:00 PM. So I mean that that would make it kind of consistent 00:35:28
with the car wash and that that's easier for code enforcement if you 9:00 to 7:00. 00:35:36
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:35:45
Kind of found, I mean, with that work, work for you guys, I mean, would you have the ability to to do that? Yeah, yeah. So they're 00:35:47
all installed as photocells. So whatever. 00:35:53
Which make you guys happy is what they do. And you could limit it to the the side facing residential. I mean, you know. 00:36:00
Hannah they they got the other signs on so that would. 00:36:08
Like the most intense glare impacting residential uses would be taken care of. 00:36:11
So an amendment to the motion to require the condition that the signs lights be turned off between the hours of 9:00 PM and 7:00 00:36:18
AM. 00:36:24
And I just say that amend the previous motion. Yeah. And then, and then do you want to, is that limited to just the elevation 00:36:32
facing residential or would that be all the signs? There's just this area facing the residential? Yeah, that's great. And then 00:36:38
whoever seconded would need to accept the motion. Should we just redo the whole thing? You already have a motion in place that 00:36:43
hasn't been so, so that that's still an act of motion. And so, so your your amendment's good. And then who second it was that you 00:36:49
asked and then would you accept it? 00:36:55
So I'll accept that amended motion and then? And then you just revote. OK, So just revote now. Yeah. So a vote then for the 00:37:01
motion. Aye, aye. 00:37:07
Thank you, Olivia. 00:37:17
All right, we're going to move on to business item number 5, public hearing on the Geneva Nitrogen General Plan Land use Map and 00:37:19
Zoning Map Amendment application. 00:37:24
Turn the time over, everybody. 00:37:29
I know. 00:37:36
Yeah. 00:38:04
All right, Planning Commissioners, thank you. So this is in regards to the Geneva nitrogen rezone. This was a city initiated 00:38:14
rezoned and land use amendment. 00:38:19
The general plan, currently the land use map does not have that area designated with the land use category. And so it's a 2 prong 00:38:26
ordinance. It would establish regional commercial as the land use category and then it would establish on top of that for zoning 00:38:32
purposes regional commercial. 00:38:38
Business Park and also FOI, which is the flex office industry. If you can, if you want to pull up the smaller map just to show 00:38:46
them that, I think that would be really helpful. 00:38:51
That's not. 00:38:59
So the, and this would be for the zoning of the concept plans that the Planning Commission saw. We also vetted that through the 00:39:04
City Council initially. 00:39:09
Like the the. 00:39:15
Preliminary concept that we saw had on essentially the whole site being being used for flex office. Why industrial? We weren't 00:39:18
necessarily against that, but what the City Council had mentioned during the RDA approval process for the, you know, clean up this 00:39:25
couple years ago was that they wanted to see things that could provide services and more of a mix of of jobs. You know, retail is 00:39:32
really important to the city because the sales tax and also being so close to the 1600 N. 00:39:39
Intersection that our freeway entrance. 00:39:47
A really great opportunity to put some uses there that that could attract, you know, the sales tax dollars that they're really 00:39:51
needed. You can see here, this is kind of a more of a close up view of how the site would lay out. If you remember, I believe 00:39:58
there were seven buildings shown in the concept plan on the South side where it says RC regional commercial. And then on the north 00:40:05
side, I believe there's one or two retail buildings on the on the RC part. And then the business park had a one medical. 00:40:12
Office building or office building in general? I don't think it was called out specifically from for medical and then. 00:40:20
The flex office industry piece was the larger Flux office building. 00:40:26
That that was shown it could potentially break up to 20 different separate sites or it could be all utilized for one large user or 00:40:32
a combination of both. So as in a certain point out to the RC is a good zoning category here front in Geneva Rd. It's also 00:40:41
connected to the larger RC parcel that's 130 acres and then on the north side on the. 00:40:50
The Geneva Industrial. 00:40:59
Corridor as you go come in off 600 N, it would align with those those regional commercial uses. I think I remember we talked 00:41:02
before there was like 700,000 square feet of existing flex office space up there plus an additional I think there's 180,000 square 00:41:10
feet that are being built right now 1750 N and so this is a you know we have a lot of jobs that are ending up there so. 00:41:18
We, we like the zoning category. We feel like it provides the services and kind of those, those launch uses that that currently 00:41:28
don't exist as it exists up there and will help to kind of fill that. 00:41:33
Or I guess put a put a stop in the retail leakage that we're seeing from our employment base. Anyway, staff is recommending 00:41:40
approval of it and are happy to answer any questions. 00:41:47
I have a question about. 00:41:54
Why in this case is the city initiating and not an applicant? 00:41:58
For a zoning change, right, We were worried about seeing a substantial development that would just be for an industrial type. And 00:42:02
so that's to get ahead of that. And then the applicant did come before us the the property owner at the time, it wasn't the Boyer 00:42:11
company, it was the Geneva Nitrous Incorporated they they submitted. 00:42:19
A a change to regional commercial and the whole thing and withdrew that application as the sales fell through. 00:42:28
So anyway, yeah, it was just the city line to to kind of take, take take the lead on program in this area. We want to make sure we 00:42:36
got, you know, more diverse land uses up there. 00:42:40
And I think Nikolai from the Boyer company may be on Zoom. 00:42:46
Yes, yeah. So if you, if you want to hear from from them, they're purchasing the property. They may have already purchased 00:42:51
probably but he's he's here to speak as well. 00:42:54
Yeah, we're happy to answer any questions that the Council has just on current efforts. 00:43:01
Tenant in strategies or our thoughts about the current proposed zoning? We're excited about the proposed zoning. We're doing a lot 00:43:06
of work right now in terms of tenant attraction and we're getting some good feedback from both the retail community, which is kind 00:43:12
of surprising to us, but we are getting some good feedback on retail and then also we're getting very good feedback on the flex 00:43:17
office. 00:43:23
From from very high quality tenants that we think the city would be excited about. 00:43:30
That helps because the theme of the night has kind of been property rights too. So since the city was initiating it, I definitely 00:43:35
wanted to get the property owners and representatives take on your thoughts on the programming. 00:43:40
Yeah. So we actually, we have previewed the entire kind of rezoning actually. It was interesting. They will be, we won't have a 00:43:47
representative from the property owner if this motion goes to full City Council approval on the 13th. I'll also be in person 00:43:54
there. But we have met with the property owner. I have an e-mail that I can share with you all. They're in full support of the 00:44:00
motion and full support of the proposed zoning categories. 00:44:07
We would have. We were very clear at the property owner basically told him, hey, you better let us know because you need to tell 00:44:15
him to yank it from the agenda if you have any problems. 00:44:19
And they indicated that they are in full support and hopefully they will voice that support on the 13th as well should this motion 00:44:24
pass. 00:44:28
I don't have it. 00:44:35
No, we have a recommended motion if you like to, but I think did you guys open the public hearing? 00:44:39
OK. And as this is an ordinance, when you make a motion, it ought to be by roll call? 00:44:46
So need to propose open to public. 00:44:54
Meeting, public hearing, Hearing. OK, I propose to move to a public hearing. 00:44:57
I'll second that. 00:45:02
All in favor. 00:45:06
OK. Anybody? No. OK, I move. I propose that we close this public hearing. I'll also second that. 00:45:09
All in favor, aye? 00:45:19
I mean if the. 00:45:23
Watch this and the property owners. 2 thumbs up. So I have no problem and I motion to forward a positive recommendation of 00:45:26
Ordinance 2022-12, Geneva Nitrogen Land Use and Zoning Map Amendments to the City Council. And this one's by a roll call. So 00:45:34
you'll just call each person's name as they as they vote. Give me a second still. 00:45:42
And then roll call myself, Chris Bramwell, Hi. 00:45:51
Take Edmondson aye, and Anthony's aye. 00:45:56
Great. Approved, yeah. 00:46:00
All right, Nicolai, so that next week we'll be on with City Council. 00:46:03
Thank you council members, we appreciate it. 00:46:07
All right, we'll move on to work session now. You guys got promoted. I don't know if you know that, Council members. 00:46:14
Do you have to run? 00:46:22
Do we have a work session tonight? 00:46:28
All right, so. 00:46:32
Any training session tonight? 00:46:35
No, not tonight. We are working and getting a training for moderate income and affordable housing in our next meeting or meeting 00:46:37
after. I know it's a topic that Amber has been heading up from the the legislative standpoint in our city. And it's really 00:46:43
important for us. And we're we're trying to work with the the downtown developers and just find any way that from a city 00:46:49
standpoint, we can provide more options and, you know, see if there's resources out there to help us kind of help that, that what 00:46:55
we call missing middle, but also. 00:47:01
Even the lower end, you know, look at the AMI. 00:47:08
Anything even down to like a 30% AMI. I mean, it's, it's important that we provide lots of options with all the employment and 00:47:14
everything going on in the city and probably knows trying to find housing is not is not easy anyway. So that we'll try to get that 00:47:21
set up in next week or the OR next meeting on the meeting after. 00:47:28
Commission, I just want to also say that on the meeting on the 20th, we're going to discuss that Heritage chapter, hopefully a 00:47:38
final time, what will be a final time, and then we can. So if you have a chance to leave those red lines and stuff from before 00:47:43
that, that'd be great. 00:47:48
I just to know I will not be here on the 20. I'll reach out to our alternates. I know there was also discussion for. 00:47:55
Maybe finding some additional alternates. I don't know if that's moved along at all. Yeah, I've, I, I'd let the, I kind of sent 00:48:03
that message to, to to the mayor and we'll, we'll hear back. I, I think she was it's her appointment. So I, I don't know how she 00:48:08
wants wants to she she married the, you know, kind of just handling that herself, but we're we're happy to help out. She asked us 00:48:14
to. 00:48:19
Any other Commission member reports or ex parte discussion news? 00:48:29
The reports from me. 00:48:34
All right. Well, then we'll go ahead and adjourn. Do you have to vote to it? No, you can just adjourn. Yeah. All right, we'll go 00:48:36
ahead and adjourn. 00:48:40
Oh yeah. 00:48:48

But we just called in an order version. 00:00:02
Call to order. 00:00:08
The July 6, 2022 Vineyard City Planning Commission meeting. 00:00:10
We'll start with an invocation or inspirational thought. I'm going to give an inspirational thought on the protection of property 00:00:17
right. So in the state of Utah, the legislature created the role of the state property rights on busman. The role of the property 00:00:24
rights on busman is to ensure the protection of property rights of citizens of Utah and provide an intermediary individual that 00:00:30
can ensure cities and municipalities and other entities that. 00:00:37
Oversee and have ordinance control over properties. 00:00:44
Use that that authority appropriately and don't infringe your property rights. So me personally, and I think everybody in here can 00:00:48
say, I mean, that's an important role. Nobody wants to infringe your property rights. And with that role, the property rights 00:00:54
ombudsman citizens have the ability to use a mediation service and arbitration to to essentially negotiate with us and ensure that 00:01:00
that what we do. 00:01:06
Is in line with maintaining their property rights and I think especially here Utah County and in Vineyard we are all for 00:01:13
protecting property rights and also this should be aware that they have. 00:01:18
That free resource from the state. So if you ever feel like you're not getting out of us what we need, and I don't honestly, I 00:01:24
don't think that'll happen. We have a great community development here, but that's a resource that is open and nobody should be 00:01:30
afraid to to use that to help communicate with the city when it comes to ensuring their rights are maintained. Yeah. And I've got 00:01:36
just like a quick thing to add to that when I wasn't talking with Heights, we had. 00:01:42
It was that's a city that gets a ton of short term rentals because of the basic cotton cannon and we had a an ordinance that put a 00:01:49
cap on the number of short term rentals. 00:01:54
However, still allowed through a conditional use permit. And so we had a developer who you know, was upset because it was allowed 00:02:00
through the code, but then there was a cap. So he's like, why would you allow it in your code if it's a use I can't even apply for 00:02:07
because we wouldn't accept applications. He's like then the senior code, however you put a cap on, but you still you shouldn't be 00:02:13
in your code anyway. It was like it was kind of a confusing thing. And so we went to the property. 00:02:19
Rides and Buzzman and you know he actually helped us from going into a lawsuit and and he and it was funny he found kind of a a a 00:02:27
middle ground between between both of us and. 00:02:31
You know, we weren't, you know, thrilled with it, but we were still happy, you know, had said some loved ones. So it was, it was a 00:02:36
good way to to kind of escape going through the long process of a lawsuit and, you know, and it helped us get a better code put in 00:02:42
place ultimately, so. 00:02:47
All right, we'll move on to open session. It's time dedicated for public comment. Are there any comments from the public? 00:02:55
Alright, we'll go ahead and close the open session and we'll move to minutes review and approval. So we're doing June 1st and June 00:03:06
22nd. 00:03:11
Did everyone have a chance to review those minutes? 00:03:20
Yeah, I reviewed the June 1st minutes. I was not here for the June 22nd, but I did catch up with Morgan afterwards and looks too. 00:03:24
Be accurate there. So unless it has any objections, I make a motion that we approve the minutes. 00:03:33
Britain, yes, we're good a second. We have to do a roll call. I on that. All right, All in favour. Aye, aye. 00:03:39
All right, we'll move on to the number four business item, Science standard waiver, Southwest Spine and Pain. 00:03:49
OK, thanks. My name is Brian. I'm Amaya. I'm a planner here in the Community Development department. 00:04:00
This application was originally approved in AIR. It came through with a sign application. And then we noticed that they were 00:04:08
proposing 3 exterior wall signs on the northern elevation and that would typically trigger a science standard waiver. And so we 00:04:14
have to put it back through the pipeline. 00:04:21
And so, yeah, the applicant provided us some amended plans and basically we're going to show them to you and we'll read you kind 00:04:30
of the criteria for what, how you guys could choose to approve those or what conditions you can attach those or you can deny them. 00:04:37
They're proposing a total of 10 exterior wall signs at the Southwest Spine and Pain Building. The address is 691 E 400 N is at the 00:04:44
Yard B. 00:04:51
And it's basically down to. 00:04:59
The zoning code isn't super, super explicit as to like how many can be approved. It's kind of the judgment call of the Planning 00:05:04
Commission would be the ultimate authority on on that. So just let me show you their their plans. So here's the location. 00:05:12
So we got the megaplex here, Yard A, here's the yard B, the southern portion. So there's a distance north of Edgewater Townhome 00:05:21
complex. 00:05:25
And I'm going to go down to the plant site here and zoom out a little bit. 00:05:30
So this was part of the original approval, but. 00:05:43
This we counted AS2 separate signs. 00:05:47
And they have other signs on different elevations. Why is that 2 separate signs? 00:05:51
Because if, if I'm correct, the applicant is here, Olivia with creative signs, it's for two different businesses that are there. 00:05:59
Yeah, sure. Would you like to come out on that specifically? I have a few other notes that I'd like to get there, but you're more 00:06:12
than welcome to. 00:06:15
OK. All right. Awesome. Perfect. Yeah. Thank you. 00:06:20
So the way that they've done this application is that they are showing us all the potential locations for future signs of of the 00:06:25
expected tenants that they'll have at some future point. And so they've been they've outlined those with red boxes and when those 00:06:32
tenants come in then their their wall signs can be approved individually and separately as as those tenants come in. So in total 00:06:39
they are proposing 10. 00:06:46
And like I said, currently on the north elevation, there's to our understanding, there's, there's three. 00:06:55
I'm going to read the criteria for how you guys can judge whether or not these six extra exterior wall signs would be merited or 00:07:02
or would be approved. 00:07:10
So there there's criteria that touch on. 00:07:21
Quality, height, sign area and design features and materials. The two that are most relevant to this application are placement and 00:07:26
quantity. And let's just go through and read each of these. I'll try to be quick. I'll sign shall be placed where they are visible 00:07:33
and legible. Factors should be considered include its location relative to traffic, movement and access points, site features, 00:07:41
other structures, and orientation relative to viewing distances. 00:07:48
Insight Triangles All signs may be approved on building walls other than the wall space occupied by the tenant in commercial 00:07:55
centers in which some tenants have little or no visibility from the street. 00:08:01
And then in terms of quantity, it says the number of signs that may be approved within any development shall be sufficient to 00:08:08
provide necessary facilitation of internal circulation of vehicular and processing traffic and wayfinding for safety of the 00:08:14
occupants of vehicle and pedestrians. Factors to be considered shall be those that impact safety considerations such as the size 00:08:20
of the development and the number of development sub areas. 00:08:26
So in reading the criteria for placement, I think you can make an argument for. 00:08:33
Location and you can make an argument for quantity and in terms of sorry I. 00:08:39
I meant to say an argument for visibility and an argument for legibility. And in terms of quantity I think you can make an 00:08:47
argument for wayfinding and the size of the development because it is a pretty large building where several businesses will will 00:08:52
be held at some point. 00:08:58
And I guess I should also state the code section so the code reads that you can have. 00:09:06
One exterior wall sign per elevation and a total of 4. 00:09:14
Except approved through a signed standard waiver. 00:09:18
So. 00:09:22
Yeah, basically there's pros and cons to approving that amount of exterior wall signs. You will add that visibility and visibility 00:09:25
to the businesses that are there. You increase the awareness. It helps with economic development for the city. 00:09:33
And we want all of our new businesses to succeed and thrive. But the cons are obviously, I think from an aesthetic standpoint 00:09:43
where you can have too many signs on, on one building and it can be cluttered and then reduce the aesthetic of the overall 00:09:49
building of the development and the community as a whole. 00:09:56
We don't have a recommendation per SE other than you guys should weigh the things that I've just mentioned and we have provided 00:10:04
some potential motions basically approval or denial of of that. 00:10:10
So, Olivia, you're welcome to come in the stand and explain the proposal if you'd like. 00:10:18
Brian, will you just go back up to the display of the signs? Yeah, the plan set. 00:10:26
Yeah, just to to give an image of, of what it'll look like or the areas that they're proposing. Yeah. And how many potential 00:10:32
tenants did you say there were in the building? Maybe Olivia can speak to that. Yeah, so sorry, is this going on? Do I need a? 00:10:38
OK. So as far as potential tenants, so just to I'll explain the dynamic first so you can understand where I come into play and the 00:10:47
situation of the tenants. So we are fabricating, installing, permitting all of these signs. We've worked with Vineyard City before 00:10:55
and installed signs and you guys are great to work with and I'm happy to be here today. 00:11:03
As far as accidentally, she's submitted the the application, she's in our permits department, she's. 00:11:12
Good with all that clerical work, really helps us out in that area. But I work directly with Southwest Spine and, you know, with 00:11:19
my clients. 00:11:23
Because when it comes to sign permitting and everything, they don't always have a full understanding and they're not quite as 00:11:29
experienced. So they asked for our help to come in and, you know, see what we can do to help them to, you know, get the most other 00:11:34
science. So as far as the dynamics with the with the tenants. 00:11:40
So Vineyard Surgery Center. 00:11:48
Southwest and Vista, they're all sister companies. So Vineyard Surgery Center is obviously surgery and you know they're related to 00:11:50
Southwest and Vista's, but they don't want to. 00:11:58
You know, direct. 00:12:07
Their patients over to Southwest clinical because it's not where they need to go for surgery and it's also not who the 00:12:11
correspondence is going to be through. So the definition between Southwest. 00:12:19
Surgery Center and SW Clinical and Vineyard Surgery Center is important because of that reason. And Vista Healthcare in Southwest, 00:12:29
they're more of the sister companies. 00:12:35
So. 00:12:43
I will say, so they, they created Vineyard Surgery Center specifically for this location, right? So obviously they know where 00:12:45
they're going. That's more of a wayfinding sign and that's why it is only located on that front elevation. So when they drive up 00:12:51
to the building, these are the patients. When they drive up to the building, they can be like, oh, it's on the left side of the 00:12:58
building. That's where I'm going Southwest and Vista and they're more of the, the sister companies. 00:13:05
And it's it's two different. 00:13:12
I guess notes they have a Vista location down in Spanish work and then they also have Southwest locations elsewhere. So it's 00:13:18
important that both of those locals are on there as well. 00:13:24
I was considering it one sign, but if we want to consider it as two separate logos put together. So if we want to consider it as 2 00:13:32
signs, that's more than OK as far as the dynamic with the tenant to the building Southwest. 00:13:40
Vista Vineyard, Surgery Center, et cetera, they are the majority like renter at that building. They helped the builder come up 00:13:49
with the finances to fund this project. So they're a partial owner of the building as well. 00:13:58
And then there will be two more tenants possibly that may come in and and fill in later. And the reason for obviously the 00:14:08
locations is it was well stated that wayfinding and viewable from those busy streets where traffic will be passing by. 00:14:16
And they also wanted to give their tenants the same opportunity. That made sense, right? Because wayfinding for the front and 00:14:25
then. 00:14:29
You know traffic and viewable space from the other sides. 00:14:35
And I I would like to also clarify that. 00:14:41
There's not like. 00:14:45
Multiple logos on it. So you're not going to see like this done Southwest on the same elevation that Vista and Southwest are on. 00:14:47
So they're kind of spread out. They are where each location is, where each tenant is going to be. And that's kind of the spiel 00:14:54
that doesn't even have any questions. I think that was it. That last point was a good clarification that on the same side, you're 00:15:01
not going to see the same logo or signage in there twice, OK. 00:15:09
OK, yes. 00:15:17
And I know the plans are kind of hard. So the building so wide that we had a hard time getting a good picture from so far back. So 00:15:20
they're kind of they are kind of paneled together. 00:15:24
But it it kind of shows. 00:15:30
One thing I would like to clarify is the southwest on that second drop down set of plans. So the middle set, the middle picture I 00:15:34
guess that's obviously on the South facing side and then right around the corner is that bottom West facing. So since they are 00:15:42
sister companies, they're closer together, but they're just right around from the corner from each other. And that was our attempt 00:15:49
to try to spread things out because we understand. 00:15:57
It is a second thing and we want to make the building work nice. I mean, the tenants want the building to look nice. And I do 00:16:05
believe they're also requesting for their tenants to keep their signs black and white. So all, all of the signs, no matter the 00:16:11
tenant will be black and white and that will help not make it look as cluttered or you know it, it'll still be aesthetically 00:16:17
pleasing. 00:16:23
Olivia, can I interview quick second? Yeah, I just wanted to also point out to the Commission that. 00:16:29
So our our code allows for a 5%. 00:16:37
Of the total. 00:16:42
Building facade to be allowed for signage and in no case there's any side of the building exceed they're allowed 5% so. 00:16:45
The north facing elevation which has the most number of signs. 00:16:57
Has a 3.62%, the South facing 2.3%, the West facing 4% and the east facing 2.25%. So they stayed within. 00:17:02
The allowed size sign area. 00:17:16
I just wanted, I just want to point that out. Oh, sorry. And that's including the future tenants as well. Yeah, I did a 00:17:19
calculation for all the proposed signs. 00:17:23
Is there? 00:17:30
Like a. 00:17:33
For example, a monument sign. 00:17:36
Outside of the building, indicating who is in the building, Yeah, there's not. 00:17:39
Just they don't have a very good location for it. And as I'm sure you could see from like the the site plan, they have their 00:17:45
building and then directly to the South or the West of their building is. 00:17:53
And it's not their land, you know, So the main entrance where people are coming in, they don't have access to. So is there just 00:18:01
the one entrance? 00:18:05
I mean, there's like emergency exits right there is they're all coming from the front one preferred. They're all coming from the 00:18:11
north side. 00:18:15
Right now. 00:18:23
And just to clarify, on the monument sign, there is one on the, it looks like they just got the South, the Science Center waiver 00:18:28
approved at the last Planning Commission, but that's for like the Top Golf development and that's on 400 N And then I'm not sure 00:18:36
what street that is the East, but entering into the development from there, I'm sure that there is a monument sign there. 00:18:44
OK. All right. 00:18:53
I'm trying to think of how I've seen this done. 00:18:58
Hopefully this helps a little bit so this entrance. 00:19:02
Here on the West through the northwest, is that correct, Olivia? And then another entrance on the east side. Yeah, the majority of 00:19:06
their traffic is coming from that N Northwest side, just because, you know, you get a lot of people coming off of I-15 heading 00:19:12
southbound. 00:19:17
And these are all the sign locations for future tenants too. So it's not anticipated to be yes. And then we have also, so it's not 00:19:28
like you're going to approve future tenants and then like they're going to come in and like build these huge signs. We've 00:19:34
restricted their area to those red squares defined in the plans. 00:19:40
I think there's also going to be a building here on this parcel. 00:19:48
That my my conceal further conceal this building, the West side of this building at some point. 00:19:52
And the only sign that's on that West side is on the West South side. 00:20:03
And it's the worst outside in the South side, around those two corners. And those are the sister companies that we tried to kind 00:20:08
of break up a little bit. 00:20:13
So my my opinion on this is I think it makes a lot of sense in this situation. I do think we need to understand that. 00:20:20
If any other building that goes in around this, we'll look at that as normal and probably expect that which, which may be 00:20:27
appropriate. But I, I think it, we just need to understand it like whatever goes in first becomes the expectation or even like the 00:20:34
the minimum. So as long as we understand that and if there's things in the code that I think that we feel like we need to be 00:20:42
clearer on or as we went through this that wasn't that clear. This wouldn't necessarily apply right now for tonight, but I think. 00:20:49
An area that we look at cleaning up, whether it be, you know, making everything uniform like these ones are electing to do, even 00:20:57
though they don't have to necessarily with the black and white. 00:21:01
It's so that all of them match if there are multiple on the same side. So I'm just thinking ahead a little bit about what we could 00:21:08
do as Planning Commission and staff to reduce the amount of questions that might come up with a Gray area. But it I mean, the 00:21:14
whole point of the Science Center waiver is to kind of live in the Gray area too. So I understand that. 00:21:20
But those are my main comments. How do you think that this makes sense? When I first read it and thought like 10 times, that is a 00:21:26
lot for four sided building, but you know, it makes a little more sense here, especially from a wayfinding standpoint. 00:21:32
I think your strongest ground that you can stand on seasoning for that is for future people that want to come in and get more 00:21:39
signs is that we are within your 5% restriction. And that's, that's usually just a good rule, general rule, working with a lot of 00:21:46
cities. That's the thing that we deal with a lot and really helpful to us as well. So then we know we're not going over the top, 00:21:54
but also being able to get the signs needed. Yeah. Oh, the other thing that I think would be important. 00:22:01
Moving forward, they're not proposing this, but I don't think we want to see the same sign twice on. 00:22:09
The same side. 00:22:17
And, you know, thankfully they're not proposing that, but I think that may be something that we would want to explicitly call out 00:22:20
moving forward. At least I think it would look strange to have. So yeah, I mean, I definitely agree with you. A part of the issue 00:22:25
that we run into is the. 00:22:30
10 of Gilbert Oh yeah, you can't restrict the content and you can do the form timing if it flashes, that kind of stuff. But the 00:22:36
content First Amendment, we're limited. 00:22:42
I don't have any concerns. 00:22:53
OK, thanks. Do you have a proposed motion language? 00:22:57
There's a couple in here. Yeah, I'll pull that up, yeah. 00:23:03
There we go. 00:23:13
Yeah. So these are just standard conditions that I have to do with, you know, obeying our local and regional ordinances and then 00:23:22
pay any outstanding fees and things like that. But you guys haven't mentioned any additional conditions to that. So I think these 00:23:28
those motions just work as they're written so. 00:23:34
I'll make a motion. 00:23:41
I move to approve the sign standard waiver application as requested by Ali Taylor with Creative Science with proposed conditions 00:23:43
and. 00:23:46
I'll second that. 00:23:52
All in favor, aye aye. 00:23:54
I'm opposed, sorry. It's fine that it goes through, but I am opposed to, well, not necessarily actually, if you're, if, if you're, 00:23:59
if you're a quorum of only three, all three have to. I don't love how the cluttered feeling it's going to like it's large 00:24:06
building. I live right by it. Like I understand the depth and breadth and that we want people to get to the right places. 00:24:13
And I love that it's all under 5%. 00:24:22
Per per elevation I. 00:24:27
I'm not thrilled that we're taking it from our Max of four to 10. 00:24:32
Umm and I I don't love the precedent that sets for future. 00:24:39
Development. 00:24:45
I feel like it's going to be a bigger fight later with other people. 00:24:47
Who want something? I'm sure they're all going to want to look the best, right? But. 00:24:52
Perhaps they're going to offer something that feels more cluttered and we won't have a leg to stand on for non approving it. 00:24:59
Because we have approved this. Does that make sense? 00:25:06
Now that there wasn't an explicit maximum of four signs called out, is that correct? 00:25:10
No, here I'll read you the code section it says. 00:25:16
Work here. Well, one for elevation. Maximum of four, except as approved through a signed standard waiver, including projecting 00:25:23
signs. 00:25:28
So. 00:25:37
Yeah. And I said the same concerns as far as you know, the precedent set in this situation uniquely I feel feel like it makes 00:25:38
sense. But yeah, I, I share the same concern about right. And I'm always happy to take it case by case, which is why we have the 00:25:45
waiver. And I appreciate the thought and the detail. It all looks really nice. 00:25:51
So your concern is mainly. 00:26:00
Olivia. 00:26:04
So it sounds like your concerns. 00:26:07
Just with the multiple signs and then yeah, cluttered feeling the the precedent that it sets for. 00:26:11
Literally everything that comes through after that makes sense. Yeah, for sure I would. I would like to also. 00:26:21
Not clarify because we know this already, but there is an emphasis, emphasis on the multi tenant building, right. And it's not 00:26:32
just. 00:26:35
If there is. 00:26:41
One sign for every four sides or unless approved by a standard sign waiver. But that's kind of the, the main push here, right, is 00:26:42
that it's for multiple tenants. And I, I, I think that there's understanding in that, especially among the community. And it is a 00:26:50
surgery center and a clinic doctors, you know. 00:26:59
Do want to make their people feel like they're taken care of and they do get. 00:27:08
A lot of of a lot of senior citizens coming to their building, so it's really important. Wayfinding is is their number one 00:27:14
concern, mainly getting off the street and into their parking lot. 00:27:21
And and. 00:27:29
Apply for them. What we'd rather do is just have a sign code that's very functional and and and works that you don't need to get 00:28:01
waivers for every single time. And so yeah, we should be rolling that out in the next month. We'll we'll be probably coming to you 00:28:08
with a in a, in a work session with a new code. And after that code is approved regardless of what happened in the past, 00:28:14
everything moving forward would have to meet that code. OK and according to that. 00:28:21
This in the works where did would this fit in there with this still require a signed standard waiver so you'd be able to limit the 00:28:28
the the the number of of signs. So it it all depends on what the the council wants to do. 00:28:35
So if you want to just do an overall percentage, like not to exceed 10% of a, of a, of a building or an elevation frontage, you 00:28:43
can limit the number you can limit, you know, like the height, the, the, the square footage and those kind of things. 00:28:53
Decided on that 5% per elevation, when was that last year? Yeah, that was in, I think that was around December that we changed it, 00:29:04
yeah. 00:29:09
December, November. I'm trying to remember our full conversation around it. 00:29:16
How many entrances are there to this building? Just the one at the north? 00:29:21
Exit, I mean there's the exit sign and I think that there might be like 2 sub entrances from the sides, but I'm pretty sure the 00:29:27
main one that most people are going to be going to is just that main one on the north side. They can, the way that it flows, they 00:29:34
can exit from those two sides and then there's emergency exits on the back. 00:29:41
But the main entrance is from that front side. 00:29:49
Yeah. Like I don't need us to be like Jamestown and Provo where we have, yeah, an address and that's it. But. 00:29:54
Well, I've worked in Orem, and I mean, we all know how crazy Orem is with their signs, right? And I mean I. 00:30:05
Your town is very beautiful and there's a very good aesthetics and I can respect how you guys, you know, handle your businesses. 00:30:14
I've I've heard all good things and I think that there is also, you know, something to be said. I really like to hear you're 00:30:22
completely right. Vineyard in Utah County is really, I guess you could say, well known for their property rights and. 00:30:30
I think that, I mean personally it's. 00:30:39
It is kind of about the rights of their property right. That's why we apply for variances and that's why we apply for I mean it's 00:30:44
not called variance in your guys's city code. It's called a a permit or a standard sign waiver. But with it being multi tenant. 00:30:52
That's kind of where this property rights comes into play for, for the applicant or for for Southwest sign and their future 00:31:02
tenants as well. My kind of opinion or my opinion is I mean with that area how it's being built up. 00:31:09
I mean, the wayfindings would be critical. You're going to have so many buildings and so much congestion. We don't have them doing 00:31:18
massive signs on the street to show, you know what's in each building. So we don't have that kind of display. So if we have a A4 00:31:24
sided building like this that has architectural elements and it can assure people can see what's in that building, no matter which 00:31:30
direction they're coming from, whether it's the residential area, top golf, movies, whatever, they can see it's there. 00:31:35
I I have no no problem with it, but I do think in the future code you know we could take into account to ensure. 00:31:43
That design concept of for design, 4 sided design, that sizing, brightness of lights, things like that. And then maybe take into 00:31:50
account too if there's street signs or no street signs. Because I can see if there were street signs here, you know, on entrance 00:31:56
saying what's there, then they'd know. And then you just have one sign on the building. But without some of those other signage 00:32:03
the other complexes would have. That's I think does have a little bit of a need. 00:32:09
And I'm sure that SW would be happy to accept a condition like, you know, after 9:00. 00:32:15
The signs go off or something because yeah, there's like a, there's a photo cell that we can program to have them turn off, but. 00:32:22
Yeah. Just trying to get your thoughts, yeah. 00:32:30
OK, Olivia, can I ask a question? 00:32:34
And this might be something you need to think about maybe with your, with your company. Is every sign that you guys have proposed, 00:32:40
is every sign crucial to the success of your, of your businesses and your tenants? Like, is there possibly a loan number that can 00:32:46
be that we can discuss at this moment? Or is that even a conversation that you don't feel ready to have potentially? Well, you 00:32:52
know, I is, is that something that would appease Commissioner Govinson? 00:32:58
Like would that be something that you would consider? 00:33:06
Like I guess reducing bringing, bringing, bringing 10 signs to 8 signs or or some number that both parties could you know? 00:33:11
Discuss. Yeah, I mean. 00:33:24
It's so, so silly too. 00:33:29
Take her over numbers. It's fine. OK, I. 00:33:31
I think aesthetically it would be nice if. 00:33:39
That were just two pro elevation. 00:33:42
But I like how I did that front 1, so that makes a little difficult. 00:33:48
OK. 00:33:54
I'm feeling comfortable with the. 00:33:55
With them all being under 5%. 00:34:00
Elevation and. 00:34:03
That we have something in the works so I don't have future fights on my hands. 00:34:05
Yeah, OK, Sorry. I did like the idea of just in in the future thought if they're facing residential areas, having the lights go 00:34:10
off at night, just something to keep in mind. I don't have any opinion on this, but yeah. 00:34:18
It'd be nice. That could be a condition of approval that you guys are assigned to us. These are like eight to five things, right? 00:34:25
Yeah, yeah. 00:34:31
Yeah, yeah. That's, that's probably something you guys could tack on to this that patient if you'd like. 00:34:38
Since you have a motion, you if you wanted to amend the motion of whoever made the motion, then this person is second it would be 00:34:43
to accept the amendment and then you would you would re vote on that If you added a condition, so the condition you said is during 00:34:51
a time frame they could turn the lights off. Yeah, generally it's I mean summertime it doesn't really get dark until 9:00. So 00:34:58
cities will allow till 10:00 and then just make it the same year round cities. 00:35:05
Differently, some say a certain amount of time after balance or amount of time after desk. But if you know if it's something, what 00:35:13
do you usually like to make? It's usually easier to do that. 00:35:18
Same time, you know, I think with the car washes we talked about not 9:00 PM. So I mean that that would make it kind of consistent 00:35:28
with the car wash and that that's easier for code enforcement if you 9:00 to 7:00. 00:35:36
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:35:45
Kind of found, I mean, with that work, work for you guys, I mean, would you have the ability to to do that? Yeah, yeah. So they're 00:35:47
all installed as photocells. So whatever. 00:35:53
Which make you guys happy is what they do. And you could limit it to the the side facing residential. I mean, you know. 00:36:00
Hannah they they got the other signs on so that would. 00:36:08
Like the most intense glare impacting residential uses would be taken care of. 00:36:11
So an amendment to the motion to require the condition that the signs lights be turned off between the hours of 9:00 PM and 7:00 00:36:18
AM. 00:36:24
And I just say that amend the previous motion. Yeah. And then, and then do you want to, is that limited to just the elevation 00:36:32
facing residential or would that be all the signs? There's just this area facing the residential? Yeah, that's great. And then 00:36:38
whoever seconded would need to accept the motion. Should we just redo the whole thing? You already have a motion in place that 00:36:43
hasn't been so, so that that's still an act of motion. And so, so your your amendment's good. And then who second it was that you 00:36:49
asked and then would you accept it? 00:36:55
So I'll accept that amended motion and then? And then you just revote. OK, So just revote now. Yeah. So a vote then for the 00:37:01
motion. Aye, aye. 00:37:07
Thank you, Olivia. 00:37:17
All right, we're going to move on to business item number 5, public hearing on the Geneva Nitrogen General Plan Land use Map and 00:37:19
Zoning Map Amendment application. 00:37:24
Turn the time over, everybody. 00:37:29
I know. 00:37:36
Yeah. 00:38:04
All right, Planning Commissioners, thank you. So this is in regards to the Geneva nitrogen rezone. This was a city initiated 00:38:14
rezoned and land use amendment. 00:38:19
The general plan, currently the land use map does not have that area designated with the land use category. And so it's a 2 prong 00:38:26
ordinance. It would establish regional commercial as the land use category and then it would establish on top of that for zoning 00:38:32
purposes regional commercial. 00:38:38
Business Park and also FOI, which is the flex office industry. If you can, if you want to pull up the smaller map just to show 00:38:46
them that, I think that would be really helpful. 00:38:51
That's not. 00:38:59
So the, and this would be for the zoning of the concept plans that the Planning Commission saw. We also vetted that through the 00:39:04
City Council initially. 00:39:09
Like the the. 00:39:15
Preliminary concept that we saw had on essentially the whole site being being used for flex office. Why industrial? We weren't 00:39:18
necessarily against that, but what the City Council had mentioned during the RDA approval process for the, you know, clean up this 00:39:25
couple years ago was that they wanted to see things that could provide services and more of a mix of of jobs. You know, retail is 00:39:32
really important to the city because the sales tax and also being so close to the 1600 N. 00:39:39
Intersection that our freeway entrance. 00:39:47
A really great opportunity to put some uses there that that could attract, you know, the sales tax dollars that they're really 00:39:51
needed. You can see here, this is kind of a more of a close up view of how the site would lay out. If you remember, I believe 00:39:58
there were seven buildings shown in the concept plan on the South side where it says RC regional commercial. And then on the north 00:40:05
side, I believe there's one or two retail buildings on the on the RC part. And then the business park had a one medical. 00:40:12
Office building or office building in general? I don't think it was called out specifically from for medical and then. 00:40:20
The flex office industry piece was the larger Flux office building. 00:40:26
That that was shown it could potentially break up to 20 different separate sites or it could be all utilized for one large user or 00:40:32
a combination of both. So as in a certain point out to the RC is a good zoning category here front in Geneva Rd. It's also 00:40:41
connected to the larger RC parcel that's 130 acres and then on the north side on the. 00:40:50
The Geneva Industrial. 00:40:59
Corridor as you go come in off 600 N, it would align with those those regional commercial uses. I think I remember we talked 00:41:02
before there was like 700,000 square feet of existing flex office space up there plus an additional I think there's 180,000 square 00:41:10
feet that are being built right now 1750 N and so this is a you know we have a lot of jobs that are ending up there so. 00:41:18
We, we like the zoning category. We feel like it provides the services and kind of those, those launch uses that that currently 00:41:28
don't exist as it exists up there and will help to kind of fill that. 00:41:33
Or I guess put a put a stop in the retail leakage that we're seeing from our employment base. Anyway, staff is recommending 00:41:40
approval of it and are happy to answer any questions. 00:41:47
I have a question about. 00:41:54
Why in this case is the city initiating and not an applicant? 00:41:58
For a zoning change, right, We were worried about seeing a substantial development that would just be for an industrial type. And 00:42:02
so that's to get ahead of that. And then the applicant did come before us the the property owner at the time, it wasn't the Boyer 00:42:11
company, it was the Geneva Nitrous Incorporated they they submitted. 00:42:19
A a change to regional commercial and the whole thing and withdrew that application as the sales fell through. 00:42:28
So anyway, yeah, it was just the city line to to kind of take, take take the lead on program in this area. We want to make sure we 00:42:36
got, you know, more diverse land uses up there. 00:42:40
And I think Nikolai from the Boyer company may be on Zoom. 00:42:46
Yes, yeah. So if you, if you want to hear from from them, they're purchasing the property. They may have already purchased 00:42:51
probably but he's he's here to speak as well. 00:42:54
Yeah, we're happy to answer any questions that the Council has just on current efforts. 00:43:01
Tenant in strategies or our thoughts about the current proposed zoning? We're excited about the proposed zoning. We're doing a lot 00:43:06
of work right now in terms of tenant attraction and we're getting some good feedback from both the retail community, which is kind 00:43:12
of surprising to us, but we are getting some good feedback on retail and then also we're getting very good feedback on the flex 00:43:17
office. 00:43:23
From from very high quality tenants that we think the city would be excited about. 00:43:30
That helps because the theme of the night has kind of been property rights too. So since the city was initiating it, I definitely 00:43:35
wanted to get the property owners and representatives take on your thoughts on the programming. 00:43:40
Yeah. So we actually, we have previewed the entire kind of rezoning actually. It was interesting. They will be, we won't have a 00:43:47
representative from the property owner if this motion goes to full City Council approval on the 13th. I'll also be in person 00:43:54
there. But we have met with the property owner. I have an e-mail that I can share with you all. They're in full support of the 00:44:00
motion and full support of the proposed zoning categories. 00:44:07
We would have. We were very clear at the property owner basically told him, hey, you better let us know because you need to tell 00:44:15
him to yank it from the agenda if you have any problems. 00:44:19
And they indicated that they are in full support and hopefully they will voice that support on the 13th as well should this motion 00:44:24
pass. 00:44:28
I don't have it. 00:44:35
No, we have a recommended motion if you like to, but I think did you guys open the public hearing? 00:44:39
OK. And as this is an ordinance, when you make a motion, it ought to be by roll call? 00:44:46
So need to propose open to public. 00:44:54
Meeting, public hearing, Hearing. OK, I propose to move to a public hearing. 00:44:57
I'll second that. 00:45:02
All in favor. 00:45:06
OK. Anybody? No. OK, I move. I propose that we close this public hearing. I'll also second that. 00:45:09
All in favor, aye? 00:45:19
I mean if the. 00:45:23
Watch this and the property owners. 2 thumbs up. So I have no problem and I motion to forward a positive recommendation of 00:45:26
Ordinance 2022-12, Geneva Nitrogen Land Use and Zoning Map Amendments to the City Council. And this one's by a roll call. So 00:45:34
you'll just call each person's name as they as they vote. Give me a second still. 00:45:42
And then roll call myself, Chris Bramwell, Hi. 00:45:51
Take Edmondson aye, and Anthony's aye. 00:45:56
Great. Approved, yeah. 00:46:00
All right, Nicolai, so that next week we'll be on with City Council. 00:46:03
Thank you council members, we appreciate it. 00:46:07
All right, we'll move on to work session now. You guys got promoted. I don't know if you know that, Council members. 00:46:14
Do you have to run? 00:46:22
Do we have a work session tonight? 00:46:28
All right, so. 00:46:32
Any training session tonight? 00:46:35
No, not tonight. We are working and getting a training for moderate income and affordable housing in our next meeting or meeting 00:46:37
after. I know it's a topic that Amber has been heading up from the the legislative standpoint in our city. And it's really 00:46:43
important for us. And we're we're trying to work with the the downtown developers and just find any way that from a city 00:46:49
standpoint, we can provide more options and, you know, see if there's resources out there to help us kind of help that, that what 00:46:55
we call missing middle, but also. 00:47:01
Even the lower end, you know, look at the AMI. 00:47:08
Anything even down to like a 30% AMI. I mean, it's, it's important that we provide lots of options with all the employment and 00:47:14
everything going on in the city and probably knows trying to find housing is not is not easy anyway. So that we'll try to get that 00:47:21
set up in next week or the OR next meeting on the meeting after. 00:47:28
Commission, I just want to also say that on the meeting on the 20th, we're going to discuss that Heritage chapter, hopefully a 00:47:38
final time, what will be a final time, and then we can. So if you have a chance to leave those red lines and stuff from before 00:47:43
that, that'd be great. 00:47:48
I just to know I will not be here on the 20. I'll reach out to our alternates. I know there was also discussion for. 00:47:55
Maybe finding some additional alternates. I don't know if that's moved along at all. Yeah, I've, I, I'd let the, I kind of sent 00:48:03
that message to, to to the mayor and we'll, we'll hear back. I, I think she was it's her appointment. So I, I don't know how she 00:48:08
wants wants to she she married the, you know, kind of just handling that herself, but we're we're happy to help out. She asked us 00:48:14
to. 00:48:19
Any other Commission member reports or ex parte discussion news? 00:48:29
The reports from me. 00:48:34
All right. Well, then we'll go ahead and adjourn. Do you have to vote to it? No, you can just adjourn. Yeah. All right, we'll go 00:48:36
ahead and adjourn. 00:48:40
Oh yeah. 00:48:48
