Event transcript
All right. Welcome, everybody. Today is February 1st, 2023. It is 6:02 PM and this is the Vineyard Planning Commission meeting. 00:01:20
I didn't ask anybody, so I will give an invocation and the Pledge of Allegiance. So we'll start with an invocation. 00:01:31
Check. 00:01:38
Dear Heavenly Father, we're thankful that we could be here today and please bless us as we make plans for the city that we will 00:01:39
feel inspired as to what is best and. 00:01:43
Make the right decisions. We're thankful for the city and those that volunteer their time and efforts and those that. 00:01:47
Are helping others in the city. We're thankful for our police and fire and. 00:01:55
All those other people. 00:02:01
And if I were a thankful father, we have and we say these things, the name of Jesus Christ. 00:02:02
Right, everybody rise for the president pledge. 00:02:07
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, 00:02:14
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. 00:02:20
Great. And you want to jump up here with us? 00:02:29
All right, we're moving into an open session right now. If you have any comments, please try to limit it to 3 minutes. State your 00:02:37
name and. 00:02:42
If it's something that's on the agenda, hold off. Open comment is just for things that aren't on the agenda currently. 00:02:47
So. 00:02:55
I. 00:03:00
Hey. 00:03:09
OK. 00:03:17
Thank you, Daria Evans, Vineyard resident. 00:03:18
I just like to make a comment about infrastructure. 00:03:21
We need. 00:03:26
Work on that before we move on to anything else. I'm experiencing a lot of congestion just this morning. 00:03:28
Going over the overpass Center St. to Mill Rd. To get to Center St. you know further. 00:03:35
Was a mess. 00:03:42
On 800 connector. 00:03:44
To Geneva. It's backed up all the way to Mill Rd. 00:03:46
And other times that's been. 00:03:50
Going the other way, coming W instead of going east. So I really think we need to work on improving our. 00:03:52
Infrastructure before we do anything more. Thank you. 00:04:01
Yeah. 00:04:09
Karen Cornelius I'm a resident as well. 00:04:15
I don't think I've ever been to a meeting here where parking wasn't addressed. I intend to continue to address that and really 00:04:18
ask. 00:04:22
Perfect. 00:04:27
How are you guaranteeing those of us who live here today? 00:04:29
That this problem will not continue with the new developments that are on the books. 00:04:34
It's a nightmare. These people that are having trouble are real people who have realized they're not just. 00:04:41
Members out there, these are real people. I have a friend who had to take a hand from job because she lost her job. 00:04:48
She doesn't get home until midnight. 00:04:55
Like front, like condos. She has to drive over to the cinema parking lot, call her son at midnight to come and pick her up to take 00:04:59
her home because there's literally nowhere left to park. 00:05:06
We have to take this seriously because it's a quality of life issue. 00:05:14
And I don't hear that being taken seriously when I hear we talk about 1.7 parking places or 2.1 parking places. This is real. This 00:05:19
is real. 00:05:25
And quality of life is everything people put. 00:05:31
Their life saving. 00:05:35
Into purchasing building living here. 00:05:37
And we need to treat them as real people. 00:05:41
My other question and concern is about community develop. 00:05:44
I I don't know how long this has been a city and incorporated city. 00:05:48
But I certainly don't understand why. 00:05:53
When we have this many people, we do not have local services. 00:05:56
We do not have a grocery store. We don't even have a convenience store. 00:06:01
We do not have a dry cleaner, we do not have a drugstore, and I know we have a compounding pharmacy that is plugged right down in 00:06:05
the middle of an entertainment district, which is not where it belongs. 00:06:11
All this over, there are restaurants. 00:06:18
Top golf and cinema. That's not where we want to. 00:06:22
Drug store and they really don't. 00:06:27
The. 00:06:30
Quick drugstore needs, so I think that that really needs to be addressed. Then my other question is I keep hearing about high 00:06:32
density. 00:06:36
Is there a formula or a percent? 00:06:41
That the state gives each incorporated city. 00:06:45
As to what their high density versus? 00:06:49
They're single family, the one Wings needs to. 00:06:52
Because I. 00:06:55
Are teetering over way, way too far on my density side. 00:06:57
Way too far and I'd like to know. 00:07:03
If there is anything that addresses that at all, I think that's very important. Again is quality of life. 00:07:06
And his quality of life. And every time I drive by the porch and think of 1500. 00:07:13
Units going in there, I just cringe. I'm new. 00:07:21
Not sure I would be here if I had known. 00:07:26
Because when you. 00:07:29
On. 00:07:32
About Vineyards plan, these are not the things I read. 00:07:33
And then when we go. 00:07:37
1/3 residential to 2/3 residential and now 1/3 business. 00:07:39
On that same development, that's a real concern for me. 00:07:45
So thank you. 00:07:49
There any other public comments? 00:07:56
All right. 00:07:59
Did you guys want to address that percentage of how many the state requires for the city or. Sure. Yeah and and just yeah, I'm 00:08:01
we're happy to to to address concerns and things like that. But we do need to be careful because there was an agendized. We can we 00:08:08
can provide basic responses, but we can't do it back and forth. I guess maybe it doesn't meet the open. Yeah, I'm not planning on 00:08:14
doing so. I can provide just some general statements. 00:08:21
As far as the the number of units, the state does require that that cities adopt A moderate income housing plan and we're going to 00:08:29
talk about about that tonight. 00:08:34
It does require that that cities allow for higher densities than what are typically allowed in traditional suburbia. And so there 00:08:39
there's a lot of strategies that that do push cities. So we are seeing from the municipal level that some of those those controls 00:08:47
that have been in their past are are being dissolved from a land use standpoint the the state, I believe it was like a 40,000 unit 00:08:55
shortage of the amount of units that are needed. 00:09:02
In the state and what is able to be delivered, you'll probably hear some of that. We've heard some of that. 00:09:11
In our last meetings as we talked about about density. 00:09:19
So there there are, there are some summer restrictions. I mean with our city right now we're pretty much. 00:09:23
I mean most of the development, I mean we do have like amendments like the floor just going through where they're asking to to to 00:09:29
be able to to change the the, the, the ratios. But for the most part the city is an entitled city in the terms of zoning and 00:09:37
design is is established and we do have those entitlements that they're in place so the city. 00:09:44
From a property rights standpoint, has to honor property rights that are given through through zoning. 00:09:51
There are things, too, with accessory dwelling units. Accessory dwelling units are requirements, so cities have to allow accessory 00:09:59
dwelling units and being right in the middle of an urbanized area or the fastest growing county. 00:10:06
In in. 00:10:14
In the state were projected to be, I think we're kind of jumped back and forth with a couple others, but we're adding over a 00:10:16
million people in the next 30 years in Utah County and we're going to surpass Salt Lake County in population. The in Salt Lake 00:10:23
County is growing. We're just going to go faster and I think that's that's 2050 and that's. 00:10:29
You know that that's reality of being a city in the middle of the urbanized footprint of Utah Valley. 00:10:36
The city has done a lot to try. 00:10:43
And and provide quality of life with amount of parks. There's not many cities that you're going to see that have the level of 00:10:45
amenities and parks that have been master planned into our city. Most neighborhoods have access to multi use trails. The trails 00:10:51
connect to the station, they connect to our parks, they also connect to the lake. 00:10:57
So those are things that have been that have been thought out. 00:11:04
Honestly, what was the other question as far? 00:11:10
That was that was the main one parking in a grocery store and stuff and we we can't I'm sorry from a legal standpoint we we we 00:11:15
can't do it do it back and forth as far as there be the. 00:11:21
Yeah, if you want to talk to Morgan after the meeting, you can you can give you. 00:11:28
Yeah, yeah. And the moderate income housing, we can talk about it. The state doesn't necessarily necessarily say like a percentage 00:11:38
of your zoning that has to that, that has to be. 00:11:43
High density, high density needs to be defined too. So a lot of people just say density and everything is density. One unit per 20 00:11:50
acres is the measurement of density. You know, 500 units per acre that you would have them like in downtown. 00:11:56
Like in Manhattan is is a level of density, so. 00:12:03
Everything has a level of density. It does require that like some of the state requirements for moderate income housing do require 00:12:06
attached housing and and they require cities to look at doing that, especially around where you have transit stations for the 00:12:13
transit stations that that's where you're going to find. 00:12:19
Multi family. 00:12:27
Higher density, you know like your your 14 plus units per acre. 00:12:29
That's going to do a lot better around transit and that that'll actually help the transit and the transit helps. That helps the 00:12:36
land use as well. 00:12:39
And so there's several strategies. The state requires us to have 5 strategies out of their. They have an inventory of strategies 00:12:44
that you can choose from. 00:12:48
And so we're discussing that tonight. We we currently meet the requirements, but we we have to have an implementation plan and for 00:12:54
transportation funding, we actually probably need to adopt another strategy and so Brian will talk about that as well. As far as 00:13:00
parking goes, the parking requirements have been increased there. There have been a lot of Facebook things going around that just 00:13:06
are not accurate. 00:13:12
You know if you look at developments that have been developed, you know after some of the developments on on Mill Rd. Brazilian 00:13:18
code was changed to to require more more parking per unit. 00:13:25
So let lakefront at residential is one that's that's always talked about and that's and I believe when we did our analysis they 00:13:31
had over 600. 00:13:35
Surplus from what the base minimum requirement was in the code. And so part of this too is you were dealing with just say a 00:13:40
university area where there's lots of students, there's lots of young professionals you have. 00:13:46
Silicon Slopes nearby the Orem Provo metro area is a really big employment area and so a lot of our residents work in those areas 00:13:54
and people come from out of state to live here. 00:13:58
And so part of the two is dealing with with landlords. We have investors who buy units and then try to pack in as many people as 00:14:04
they possibly can. The city is working actively with Hoas to identify those units and to do code enforcement and we've been 00:14:10
successful in many cases of doing that. We've also worked with multiple apartments to add more parking. The Alloy Concorde Fine 00:14:17
Edgewater currently is is adding about 100 parking spaces. We're looking at at redeveloping some of our corridors to to add 00:14:23
parking. 00:14:30
That that that can help as well. 00:14:37
So the city is doing quite, quite a bit, but I mean they're we're just in one of the highest growth areas in the country right now 00:14:38
with two universities really close by so. 00:14:43
And that's something to you with the Forbes that were required at the very front end that they have a parking management plan. 00:15:23
And if they don't provide enough parking, there's a parking study, and that parking requirement won't go up in their next phases. 00:15:30
And so it's and that's something that we built into the downtown and those are pretty important because that will actually require 00:15:37
a consultant to come out a parking professional who will study the area and see what kind of demand is on the system from those 00:15:42
units. And if they don't provide enough, then the parking requirements jump And so it's in the best interest of of the developers 00:15:48
to have. 00:15:53
To manage their parking and to have enforcement that that tells you know if if people are are parked without permits. 00:16:00
Anyway, I mean, we understand the problem and we're we're definitely working on it. Thanks, Morgan. All right, if there are no 00:16:08
more public comments, we will move into. 00:16:13
Minutes for review and. 00:16:18
I make a motion to approve the minutes from January 18th, 2023. I have a second second. All in favor, aye? 00:16:22
All right, Moving on to the business item 4.1, General amendment, General Plan Amendment, Moderate income housing. 00:16:31
Yeah, this is. 00:16:38
Whoops, there we go. 00:17:51
OK. Good evening, Planning Commission. Good to be with you guys. I'm Brian Amaya. 00:17:56
I. 00:18:02
I'm a senior planner here with Vineyard City and the Community Development Department. 00:18:03
Morgan gave a great introduction to what what this ordinance is looking to do. 00:18:08
So. 00:18:14
This one is just talking about the moderate Income housing plan that we're trying to push through. 00:18:15
It's a requirement from House Bill 462, which requires municipalities to add or update their minor income housing plans by 00:18:21
October, the first of last year. 00:18:28
So we did meet that requirement to submit what? 00:18:35
Going to be our modern housing plan. We have received communication from them since that ordinance that we submitted that we did 00:18:39
need to make some corrections in terms of implementation, measurements, benchmarks and timelines, which I will get to in a minute. 00:18:47
So this update requires that the incorporation requires the incorporation of pre selected strategies from Utah State code 00:18:57
10-9A-403 with including implementation. 00:19:03
This code outlines 24 potential strategies for cities and towns to choose them that they can select as part of their Modern Income 00:19:12
Housing plan. 00:19:17
They're lettered A through Z basically, and depending on what class of city you are, you either have to. 00:19:22
There's a number of strategies that you have to implement. 00:19:32
And because Vineyard is a city that has a fixed guide World Guideway rail station, so for Honor Station, we're required to 00:19:36
implement 5 strategies. 00:19:42
If we implement 2 more strategies, we basically can add we can qualify for priority consideration of TIFF, TIFF and COVID-19 local 00:19:50
instance matching grant program. 00:19:58
Umm. 00:20:07
And if we do not meet the minimum of implementing at least five of the required strategies from that state code. 00:20:09
We basically don't qualify for for that for that funding. So TIFF is transportation Investment Fund funding that comes from the 00:20:15
state. It's it's for capital improvement projects having to do with roads. 00:20:23
T TIF stands for Transit Transportation Investment Funds, also coming from the state for capital investment projects having to do 00:20:32
with public transit. 00:20:36
And then COVID-19 local assistance matching program is funding. 00:20:41
That comes from the federal government, the American Rescue Plan Act and it's funding for eligible projects. 00:20:48
Or services that address the economic impact of the COVID-19 emergency. 00:20:57
Projects that qualify include investments in water and sewer. 00:21:03
Projects that address housing and security, a lack of affordable housing or homelessness. And there's a bunch of other projects 00:21:10
that could also qualify for that kind of funding. So in a past meeting, people wanted to know what those funds were about, what 00:21:16
were missing out on or qualifying for. So that provides a little bit of an explanation. 00:21:22
To give you a little background on the evolution of this ordinance and where we've been and how we've arrived at this point. 00:21:29
On August the 3rd, 2022, so last year you, the Planning Commission, had a work session. 00:21:38
With the city staff and with the public, where we introduced the 24, what we introduced. 00:21:47
House Bill 462 The requirements. 00:21:55
And we laid out all the strategies that we can choose from. 00:21:57
The in the Planning Commission meeting that followed right after on the 17th of August. 00:22:02
We had another work session where we began to narrow down the strategies that we felt were most appropriate. 00:22:07
For Vineyard. 00:22:14
In the September 7th Planning Commission. 00:22:16
You held a public hearing. 00:22:21
And. 00:22:23
Decided to recommend for approval to the State Council the following strategies. 00:22:25
EFH. 00:22:33
OQ&V. 00:22:36
Later in my presentation, I'll layout. 00:22:39
The strategies that we're currently considering. 00:22:43
So that you can see them and have them before you. 00:22:48
On September the 14th, the City Council held a public hearing where they approved. 00:22:51
Oh, I'm sorry. Let me take a quick step back on that on that September 7th meeting where the Planning Commission held a public 00:22:59
hearing. 00:23:02
We removed. 00:23:07
Strategy I which had to do with single occupancy housing. 00:23:09
And there was a concern of our planning commissioners that that that that may. 00:23:14
Further affect our demographics for a more family friendly environment, especially within the downtown. 00:23:20
And so, umm. 00:23:25
That availability for single occupancy housing throughout the city was removed from the strategies. 00:23:27
And then on September 14th, the City Council did have that public hearing and strategies EFHLNOQ&V, but not I were officially 00:23:35
adopted as by by ordinance. 00:23:42
Um. 00:23:52
So we did meet the deadline. 00:23:52
For that October 1st, 2022 submission where we had to have a modern income housing plan submitted to the state. 00:23:56
Along with. 00:24:04
Implementation. 00:24:07
Tactics. So we have a format within the general plan that outlines. 00:24:08
A pretty much a rough estimate of costs and timelines for when we believe that strategies can get done. 00:24:14
And that's what we submitted to say based on our form. 00:24:22
But they did not fully meet the requirements of the Department of Workforce Workforce Services at the state. 00:24:26
Implementation was not detailed enough according to them, and they required more detailed, actionable items and specific 00:24:35
benchmarks and measures to support the implementation of our of our selected strategies. So this was communicated to me by a 00:24:41
person. Her name is Alyssa Gamble, she's one of the project managers at the Department of Workforce Services, and she relayed this 00:24:48
information to me on November the 18th. 00:24:54
She 20/22 she told me that Vineyard has. 00:25:01
90 days from October. 00:25:06
To amend our modern Income Housing Plan to have specific benchmarks, measures and timelines that the state requires. 00:25:09
And so we we went to work. And we we. 00:25:18
We amended A revised our minor income housing plan with more deep with more details. 00:25:22
Um. 00:25:28
So this is what we're bringing before you today, Ordinance 2023-04, which provides those those requirements for the Department of 00:25:30
Workforce Services. 00:25:36
In addition, this ordinance removes strategy N&O of the, yeah, I'll just pull those up so you can see them. 00:25:43
Excuse me, so strategy, N&O? 00:25:54
Strategy and is it has to do with providing mortgage assistance for employees of the city or for other public servants working 00:25:59
within the municipality? 00:26:04
And our conversations, our internal conversations with staff basically it's not something that, it's not that we do not want to 00:26:09
work on that as a strategy. It's just because of the time constraints that we're currently in to submit by that October 1st 00:26:16
deadline and then the 90 days shortly after. It just requires a little more thought and consideration and analysis of of budgets 00:26:23
and different things like that in order for us to make a really well planned and educated. 00:26:29
Strategy for what that's going to look like. So for lack of better words, it's kind of on the back burner, but we definitely 00:26:38
intend to to look further into that. 00:26:42
In the future. 00:26:47
And then? 00:26:48
Uh. 00:26:51
So that's strategy N strategy O. Sorry, I just I never showed you which one that is here on the board. 00:26:52
And increase the size of this a little bit. 00:27:01
Oh, here we go. Yeah, let's do that. Thank you very much. 00:27:18
So it says, implement a mortgage assistance program for employees of the municipality. 00:27:22
Employer that provides. 00:27:27
Contracted services services to the municipality or any other public employer that operates within the municipality. 00:27:29
And then strategy 6, which is also it's strategy 6 in our general plan, but. 00:27:36
Oh, within state code 10-98-403. 00:27:43
And and just to give you a quick rundown of that, it basically is a strategy for us to partner with different entities. 00:27:49
Local, regional or federal that promote the construction of moderate income housing and they also partner with other 00:27:56
organizations. 00:28:00
That one too, we. 00:28:05
We have to research who those organizations are. We don't know who's out there and so we need a little bit more time. 00:28:08
But our recommendation tonight, because we do want to qualify for that additional consideration for funding for the TIF funding 00:28:14
and the TIF funding and all that is to put this one, sorry, put this one back into our modern income housing plan. So this will 00:28:20
this would show up as green again. 00:28:27
In our OR I guess would be a condition of approval. 00:28:33
Correction in your motion. 00:28:37
And then? 00:28:40
Just having the strategy would suffice the requirements of the Department Workforce Services, because we've already detailed 00:28:41
measures and benchmarks for the other five that are outrightly required. 00:28:48
And so I think that by making that motion that'll get us to where we need to be to get that additional consideration. That's why I 00:28:54
can just add that's a pretty good one. So as you know, the downtown received the HTRZ debt designation, that's the housing, 00:29:00
transit and redevelopment. 00:29:06
That that designation and so they're required to have. 00:29:13
11.2%. 00:29:18
Of I think 10% was the state requirement and they said well we actually think we can get just a little bit more So they're they 00:29:20
propose 11.2, so that's what the state basically approved that was 11.2 and so they have to have the 80% AMI a number of those and 00:29:27
so. 00:29:34
Anyway, because of the requirement to have that anyway, that this might be an opportunity to partner with with an entity to to 00:29:42
maybe get the AMI even down further. 00:29:47
So that that that actually would be a good one because we're kind of doing it anyway with with the downtown, we got the 00:29:53
designation. So there has to be affordable housing and this could be you know kind of a win win if we could we could get a lower 00:29:58
AMI right next to the train station. 00:30:03
Cool. 00:30:10
Yeah. I guess I lost the Commission. Have you guys had the chance to review the amendments to the strategies that have already 00:30:11
been approved or is that something that you guys would like to run through right now? 00:30:17
And we can kind of see the changes if you could run through it just for the benefit of the of course, Yeah. So in goal two of our 00:30:24
code of the moderate. 00:30:29
Income Housing Plan within our our general plan. 00:30:37
The goal is here, as I said, encourage and promote affordable housing developments by incentivizing developers to build this type 00:30:40
of housing. 00:30:44
And so we added strategy three, reduce wave or eliminate impact fees related to moderate income housing. 00:30:49
And then the specifics of that, the implementation plan that the state was looking for is the city will establish a program to 00:30:55
reduce wave or eliminate impact fees. 00:31:01
Related to moderate income housing. 00:31:06
Draft plan will be presented to the City Council by the end of 2020. 00:31:09
And then the city will Commission a study which will include The analyze will include analyzing reductions of impact fees for 00:31:13
moderate income housing units by the end of 2020. 00:31:18
This was also a strategy that was incorporated develop and adopt A station area plan in accordance with Section 10-98-403, point 00:31:26
One of Utah State Code. 00:31:31
The city will choose a consultant by the end of the first quarter 2023. 00:31:37
So we're. 00:31:43
Around like March, March or April. So and just a kind of for the stationary plan mag is the one facilitating that process. We had 00:31:45
four consultants submit. We have the the committee working on that has ranked each of those consultants and we're hoping by next 00:31:52
month or you know by the end of this month even to to be able to go into to interviews and potentially have someone under under 00:31:58
contract to to start that work. 00:32:05
Thanks, Morgan. 00:32:12
So continuing the planning process for this project will initiate at the end of the second quarter of 2023, so around July or 00:32:15
August. The city will develop and adopt A station area plan by the end of 2024. 00:32:22
OK, let's see. So this next goal has to do with providing the framework for the successful integration of a mix of housing types 00:32:31
in the communities, various neighborhoods. So this comes from the general plan. 00:32:37
Strategy. 00:32:45
So this is one of the new strategies that we proposed back in that public hearing with City Council, so that the zone or rezone 00:32:47
for a higher density of or moderate income residential development in commercial or mixed-use zones. 00:32:55
Near major transit investment corridors, commercial centers or employment centers. So we're already doing a lot of that with the 00:33:03
downtown. 00:33:07
The study will work with UVU to ensure the establishment of a residential mixed-use zone to accommodate on campus living with 00:33:11
ground level commercial uses within the Vineyard South Campus by the end of 2026. 00:33:18
Starting in 2023, the city will meet biannually with the UVU Associate vice president of Facilities Planning to coordinate 00:33:24
planning efforts between the university and Vineyard City. 00:33:30
I just want to add a little note that that is already within you use master plan. That's something that they wish to accomplish. 00:33:38
They want to provide much student housing in their southern campus. 00:33:43
And we just want to be able to partner with them and make sure that that's carried out appropriately. 00:33:49
The Forge Special Purpose Zoning District, which we'll be discussing further tonight, will be rezoned to allow for higher 00:33:55
residential density. Currently, this district allows 1/3 of the square footage to be dedicated to residential use. By the end of 00:34:02
2025, the city will increase the residential square footage allowance to 1/2. 00:34:08
Strategy 5. Create or allow for and reduce regulations related to internal or detached. 00:34:17
Accessory Dwelling Units in residential zones. The city will amend the zoning code to allow for mobile housing units intended for 00:34:24
long term placement to be utilized as accessory drilling units such as tiny homes, modular homes and prefabricated homes by the 00:34:30
end of 2025. 00:34:36
These housing types must adhere to a permanent foundation. 00:34:42
Strategy 6. Amend land use regulations to eliminate or reduce parking requirements for residential development where a resident is 00:34:46
less likely to rely on the residents owned vehicles as owner vehicle. I think I missed that own vehicle. 00:34:53
Such as residential development near major transit investment corridors or senior living facilities. The city will Commission a 00:35:01
citywide parking study to analyze parking. 00:35:06
And provide recommendations for parking reductions to the City Council by the end of 2026. Carrying out the study will require 00:35:11
approval funding. 00:35:16
The Venue Redevelopment Agency, the RDA will provide funding for the construction of a parking structure to serve the multi family 00:35:21
units of the Vineyard Downtown District by the end of 2028. 00:35:26
And then study seven I was supposed to add. 00:35:32
Implementation and I I didn't somehow it didn't get into the ordinance, but I did want to show you the corrected version of that. 00:35:38
I'm gonna jump right to it on the next page. 00:35:44
So it does create a housing and transit reinvestment. 00:35:49
Pursuant to Title 63 N Chapter 3, Part 6, Housing and Transit Reinvestment Zone Act. 00:35:52
The. 00:35:59
Was the city was successful in receiving the HTRZ designation? 00:36:01
From the State of Vita moving forward, the City will set up an HDRZ board to oversee, manage and analyze the project to ensure 00:36:07
that 11% of the units are deed restricted to provide moderate income housing. This board shall be established by the end of 2023. 00:36:15
And then the only thing missing out of this ordinance is the strategy. Oh, that we're recommending to. 00:36:24
Reinsert back into the into the. 00:36:31
So those are the changes. 00:36:35
Morgan. 00:36:39
Happy to try to ask questions. 00:36:40
Did you guys have any questions? 00:36:43
Couple questions. Some of these are pretty high level and vague, so can you just clarify again? 00:36:47
Like when, when further details would be. 00:36:55
Adopted on these with with execution plans on which ones this is. 00:36:59
When it says things like rezone to allow for higher residential density, is that just higher than? 00:37:08
One unit higher equals higher density. I'd like just some clarity there or? 00:37:14
I would say like what what were you doing tonight is? I mean would really be, yeah, I'm just wondering if there was any specifics 00:37:20
in there where if we took action. 00:37:26
Someone would look at it and say no, that doesn't. 00:37:32
What you said you would do because there's some words in there that are. 00:37:35
Like there's not a lot of teeth to it, right? 00:37:40
Similar what you know, so I just want to make sure that if these are our strategies that we actually know. 00:37:44
If you guys feel comfortable. 00:37:51
Recommending a timeline or some sort of metric. 00:37:54
You're welcome to, You know, I mean, obviously that's probably not the answer you're looking for. 00:37:59
But. 00:38:04
Yeah, we we're open to ideas. It doesn't give you a lot. It doesn't say like you need to go like it needs to be by you know 40% 00:38:07
increase or anything like that it. 00:38:13
I mean it's kind of general in that sense, but then you submit a report, they analyze report and then they tell you. 00:38:19
Or if you if you met the requirement. 00:38:28
What what it was when we were talking about the accessory dwelling units and like a separate. 00:38:31
Obviously that wouldn't be applicable for every parcel, probably some of the larger parcels and so just defining that as well I 00:38:37
think is would be part of that and I don't know if this is the place to do that or if when it says city will amend the zoning code 00:38:43
that that's good enough. 00:38:48
Yeah, exactly. Because this is part of the general plan and so this. 00:38:54
It serves as a guiding point to where then we can add additional details and further ordinances in the municipal code and the 00:38:58
zoning code. 00:39:02
So those details can be talked about with you guys and with the public later on. Yeah, one way to look at this is you have to have 00:39:06
something in there that meets the, the requirements. So we went back and forth, back and forth with the state, would this, this, 00:39:12
this meet it now? Would this meet it now this okay, this meets it. 00:39:18
And so essentially what would happen is you would take those under under consideration. So some of these might not get get 00:39:24
adopted, but you do have to have an implementation plan that shows the city well considered some of these things like the one 00:39:32
tonight, the 4th, you know if that's if that gets passed by the City Council then that would be one that you could check off. So 00:39:39
what we did is we put kind of what, what, what a minimum allowances. So we said half. 00:39:47
The square footage, so that would increase it. If you do more than that then that's that, then that's even better for the state 00:39:54
that's that's a better influence. I mean that answers my question about where the where the details and nuances should live. The 00:40:00
other thing that I think has come up multiple times that. 00:40:05
Just to answer further answer, OK, I want to read something here that yeah go ahead. And so in my in a letter that we received 00:40:10
from Alyssa Campbell. 00:40:15
That project manager with the Department of Workforce Services, she did. 00:40:20
I feel like what you're saying is almost referring to like new actions moving forward, like when are we going to do this or that 00:40:26
if we've already commenced that project? 00:40:31
The strategy, the way that we word it can can address. 00:40:38
I'll just read it says that the strategy has been implemented, is complete, or is ongoing. 00:40:43
Measures and a specific timeline for program monitoring, review or continued implementation must be included. So. 00:40:48
We can then kind of focus our shift or shift shift our focus to monitoring and reviewing and then providing. 00:40:56
That feedback as as time goes on to the Department of Work for Services, so we don't necessarily need to say. 00:41:05
You know we need to create new projects, higher density and you know all that. We can just continue monitor what we already have. 00:41:11
That makes sense. I don't know. 00:41:18
Helps answer your question a little bit. 00:41:20
The other one was just a comment. 00:41:22
It comes up pretty frequently. Like the term high density I think it would. 00:41:24
That means something different to everybody, but I think it would be in our best interest to define, at least from what the city's 00:41:30
standpoint is like. What does the city? 00:41:34
Say is high density so that we're using the right terms. 00:41:38
Because every single development is coming to the city. Someone has complained about it being high density, even if it's third 00:41:41
acre lots. You know, if you were the farmer here originally, that's outside density to you, right? So every, every development 00:41:46
that comes in that term gets used. 00:41:50
It's kind of meaningless if we don't have a like a working definition of for exactly. So that's just more of a comment and that's 00:41:56
one too with our. So we are looking at hiring some planning services contract. So I'd be a consultant that could help us. So there 00:42:02
we have, I think we look at our products, we have 40 projects right now that the department's working on SO4 four people. 00:42:09
So somewhere we're just like giant projects over like, we have to be realistic, I mean. 00:42:17
And so the planning service contract is going to help us take on some of these. And the Planning Commission part of this too is 00:42:24
the General Planning Commission requested that we relook at the land use map and make sure that the land use map is accurate, that 00:42:29
we define the land use categories. 00:42:35
So something like that we want to do it. 00:42:40
In a in a very well organized way and how to have some good basis for for decision making. And so we're going to have a consultant 00:42:43
help us analyze that now. So that'll be one of the projects that the planning services contract will will cover. 00:42:50
So yeah, we plan to start on that this this next year. I also wanted to state to the Commission. 00:42:57
So Alyssa, she gave me kind of a timeline for how. 00:43:04
Doing in order to be able to meet a requirement, so the. 00:43:10
2022 deadline already. 00:43:14
Then you'd have 90 days has 90 days in order to get this on income, income, moderate Income Housing plan approved. That deadline 00:43:16
is February the 16th. 00:43:21
So if we wanted to meet that deadline, we'd basically have to make it a recommendation for approval tonight and the City Council 00:43:26
would have to then approve. 00:43:31
On the 8th next week, but that being said. 00:43:36
She she is willing to work with within your city, I'll be in communication with her if there. 00:43:42
Something that you guys do not like about this ordinance or any additional time? 00:43:49
She then has an additional 90 days from February the 16th. 00:43:54
Keep moving forward, but with the requirement that we have to be like in communication with her on how things are doing. 00:44:00
Because that that one is definitely a hard, a hard deadline for her, and she recommended that we definitely don't. 00:44:09
Umm. 00:44:15
Almost even. Like, consider, you know, but she's like. 00:44:16
Try to stay on the deadlines that are already outlined so we do have a little bit of time if we need further. 00:44:19
Conversations with. 00:44:26
It's not that we are. 00:44:28
On a tight schedule. 00:44:29
I I don't know. I feel satisfied. 00:44:32
With the work that I've seen in the additions. 00:44:34
We're up here. Can I ask one question for you? The emotion? Oh yeah. 00:44:38
So everything like you talked about has been approved, which is great. Thank you for clarifying timelines. So the only one they 00:44:45
haven't seen is Oh right. 00:44:49
Because we took it out. Now we're gonna put it back in. So yeah, but still, I just want. 00:44:54
Not that it matters for anything, but I actually think it is very wise to keep it in there because it opens us up that additional 00:45:00
funding. 00:45:04
Because of the point of the public comment, like we can't do some of these projects on infrastructure unless we qualify, I mean 00:45:09
that just only helps, right, with additional funding sources, so absolutely. 00:45:14
The housing thing, I I remember like four years ago, like the state passed some stuff like you got to start getting a plan 00:45:19
together and there was no, yeah, there there was no, like, enforcement or anything like that. And the next year got a little 00:45:24
tighter. And then finally they're like, OK, no one's doing it. Now you have to do it or you're not getting funding. We're like, 00:45:28
OK. 00:45:33
So yeah, all cities. So we looked at a lot of different cities. All, all cities are going through this the same process, so. 00:45:39
Cool. Any other questions before we open it up for a public hearing? 00:45:49
Do I have a motion to open up a public hearing? I move to open it up to a public hearing. Do I have a second? 00:45:55
Second, all in favor? Aye, All right, public hearing. If you'd like to make a comment, come up to the board and you probably just 00:46:01
sit at the table if you want. 00:46:07
And we're just talking about the general plan amendment for the moderate income housing right now. So if you have a comment for 00:46:14
this. 00:46:17
I. 00:46:25
Daria Evans, Vineyard resident. 00:46:31
OK, I've been reading this ordinance that we're talking about adopting tonight. 00:46:35
And where? 00:46:41
Therefore, it must adopt a minimum of five strategies to include strategy B and either strategy GH or Q. 00:46:44
I could not find strategy. 00:46:52
On. 00:46:55
And I would like to know what that is before we decide whether to adopt it. 00:46:57
I don't think we need to adopt strategy. 00:47:02
Because seniors still need. 00:47:06
I don't think you should put seniors without a vehicle. 00:47:09
They need them. We need them. I need them. 00:47:14
We need vehicles and we need parking for vehicles. 00:47:17
If a medical supply. 00:47:21
Needs to come to deliver oxygen. That vehicle needs to park right where that resident lives. 00:47:23
Meals on Wheels, Same thing. 00:47:30
Ambulance services, fire. 00:47:32
We don't need to implement strategy. 00:47:37
OK. 00:47:41
We have strategy. 00:47:43
We have two already with that. 00:47:46
Let me find. 00:47:55
Yes, we already have that it that. 00:47:57
He mentioned that it was successful. 00:48:00
Getting that designation, so that's already there. 00:48:03
So we don't need to implement anything more. 00:48:06
They. 00:48:11
But I just like you or whatever it is. Yes, it looks like F is is actually G and so. So if if you pass a motion then it would be 00:48:15
to change the typo so F is G. 00:48:21
OK. What is it? OK. 00:48:29
Rezoning for higher density or moderate income residential development. 00:48:32
OK. That's the one with EU. 00:48:38
Yep. 00:48:43
OK. So that so that whole ordinance will have to be that part needs to be rewritten then? 00:48:44
To make it accurate. 00:48:50
OK. But I really don't think we need to include strategy. 00:48:53
Sure, you shoot yourselves. 00:49:02
Senior residents for good residents. 00:49:07
Thank you. 00:49:11
I might have more. 00:49:14
Taking tariffs down with me. Like you know, my name is Wendy Point and I am a vineyard resident. I just want to comment on 00:49:23
something she just said about H personal experience. 00:49:29
My mother was in a really nice assisted living for years. 00:49:36
It was it was wonderful and I had parking. 00:49:40
Most of the parking was taken up by #1 employee staff. You'd be amazed how many. 00:49:43
How much staff they have and they all drive their own cars, OK, when they come and they go. And then also you have deliveries as 00:49:50
you mentioned, but seniors have vehicles. I mean, some of them shouldn't be driving and hopefully that keys get taken away 00:49:56
eventually, but a lot of them drive. I mean they do drive and my mom drove safely until she was in her 80s and she handed us her 00:50:01
car keys, but. 00:50:07
The other thing is, remember they get a lot of visitors and as somebody who visited my mom frequently, especially at the end, it 00:50:14
was important that either my sister and I go see her every day. 00:50:20
And there would be times we could not find a parking spot, and there wasn't even an adjacent spot anywhere close. So. 00:50:27
You know, it was, it was frustrating. I mean, you literally have to drive around, drive around, hope that you could find something 00:50:35
out front temporarily and then move your car for a little bit longer and you've got to remember. 00:50:40
There's a lot of. 00:50:47
Residents have. 00:50:49
People have deliver. 00:50:51
And then there are visitors. And that's one thing that senior citizens need more than anything with, especially when they get 00:50:53
older or visitors and visitors come in cars. 00:50:58
Thank you. 00:51:04
Sorry again. I just want to mention one more thing. We have a population density 3300. 00:51:09
People per square. 00:51:15
And we need to. 00:51:18
Recognize that and that we need. 00:51:20
Plan. 00:51:24
Eventually higher density, but plan judiciously and. 00:51:26
That we don't have the problems that we're already experiencing. 00:51:35
You know, when is UDOT going to widen that road that you've talked about restriping? 00:51:40
That's a Band-Aid measure. 00:51:45
And the problems that we're having with Center St. Overpass and. 00:51:48
And you know, we don't have very many exit strategies. It's either Geneva Road or Center St. 00:51:53
Because for South isn't through yet. Because Holdaway Fields isn't being developed yet. 00:52:00
And so we're. 00:52:06
In a. 00:52:09
And then also I had one more question. Well, a comment about Adus. 00:52:11
Now, recently we've said that ad use can come into. 00:52:16
Existing homes. 00:52:20
And. 00:52:22
In new construction, is that correct? Am I correct in saying that if they meet certain requirements and so now we want to put more 00:52:24
ADUS in with these? 00:52:28
And do they not require private driveways and parking spaces for these ad use that would be coming in and if you have little tiny 00:52:33
homes? 00:52:38
They will need driveways and parking spaces too, correct? So that means more land area, lesser density. 00:52:42
OK. OK. Thank you. Thank you. And to kind of address the ADUS, we still have requirements. This is just making it so say a person 00:52:51
wanted an Adu and they didn't want to rent out their basement then they could have. 00:52:59
Small, detached, something in their backyard. It's just giving people options, but they still need to meet requirements for our 00:53:07
city. 00:53:11
That's lot size and they have to have a certain amount of parking spaces and currently with our city they need to also have a 00:53:16
business license if I'm right. 00:53:20
Clarify something too senior living facilities. 00:53:25
That that's an actual like defined term I think by the state and it's it doesn't mean age restricted like 55 plus community, it 00:53:28
means that I could. 00:53:32
Like like a facility where you know you yeah memory care that that kind of stuff typically were seniors that are living there 00:53:37
don't don't have a car and so that's that So that's what it it's referring to that's the state definition that's plugged in 00:53:44
doesn't mean that we we have to we have to actually do that because. 00:53:52
Because it it provides an an or but we have to have that the full state strategy so that that doesn't mean like so if it age, so 00:53:59
like in. 00:54:02
The the whole way. 00:54:07
Fields, they changed names, sorry all the way. Fields development, they have an age restricted development that's coming in that's 00:54:09
not a senior living facility there that that's actually like a defined term. 00:54:14
So just just to clarify, so like Leisure Village wouldn't wouldn't fall under a senior living facility? 00:54:21
Living I think needs to be defined because yes. 00:54:29
Usually the memory care facilities are attached to things called independence and I apologize just because. 00:54:34
If you want to give your public comment then we can catch you. 00:54:42
I apologize. I just want to, there's some clarification. I live in a 55 plus unit, yeah. And most of us are mobile and you know 00:54:45
whatever. 00:54:49
But the one I was talking about, like my mother, it was A and most of them are like that. They're assisted living, independent 00:54:54
living and memory all in the same unit. And you do have people that are independent. 00:55:00
That drive quite a few. 00:55:07
I just want to say that the requirement from the state unfortunately is to adopt these word for word so, but we can further define 00:55:11
it in our own definition section. 00:55:17
If we don't put something in there it says like we will reduce parking requirements for facilities when we it's not something you 00:55:24
have to you have to do. But that's why we're going to analyze it city wide on on H here is even though the strategy itself seems. 00:55:32
Somewhat extreme that the strategies that we're proposing. 00:55:41
Commissioned a study to see if it's even feasible to reduce parking, and if it's not, then you don't do it. But you commissioned 00:55:46
the study and then the other one is actually funding more parking. 00:55:51
To serve those multi family units to ensure that there's not an issue. So yeah, I I see how strategy 8 sounds like pretty. 00:55:58
Aggressive. But the the strategies that the city is proposing starts out with, Is this even it's a feasibility study basically 00:56:05
right? Am I am I correct in that frame? 00:56:10
Pardon me if I have a loan trust though. 00:56:16
Yeah, and also something. 00:56:20
When the city requires parking for space, requires minimum parking and stuff like that. 00:56:24
It's kind of interesting because. 00:56:31
If we didn't require parking, let's say, and they decided to build no parking stalls, would you? 00:56:33
And you had a car. 00:56:39
Want to be in that senior living facility? Like, no, you just wouldn't. You wouldn't go there, you wouldn't be in the senior 00:56:42
living facility or it's kind of the same with. 00:56:47
Apartments and stuff too. Or businesses where if we require a minimum. 00:56:51
And. 00:56:56
Say Topgolf had 10 parking cells there. Would people want to go to the top Golf if they had nowhere to park? 00:56:58
And with the house, should we require anybody to build the house? Just a single family home? Should we require them to have three 00:57:05
parking spots or 4 parking stalls? Because they have they might eventually someday sell the house to somebody that has four cars. 00:57:11
Should we require them each house to have a certain amount of parking? Sell suits? 00:57:17
It's kind of trying to find that line of. 00:57:24
Where do we try to give people freedom? And that freedom, kind of. 00:57:27
To developers too, that. 00:57:33
As far as parking, if you're going to rent a house and it has no parking stall, but you have a car. 00:57:36
Like you have to consider like should I live in this place and get rid of my car instead of purchasing the place and being like 00:57:42
well the city should have required them to give me a parking spot. 00:57:47
And. 00:57:53
If you're buying a house, you would always consider that You would think I'm buying this house. It has a garage with two spots. I 00:57:55
can park my two cars, but if it only has one spot, you just wouldn't buy the house because it's like I need to. 00:58:01
So it's kind of hard to. 00:58:08
To make specific requirements like that on certain facilities, businesses, if they don't have enough parking, they should lose 00:58:11
business. 00:58:14
And high density or multifamily units? If they don't have enough parking, they should have a hard time selling homes. 00:58:20
And really, it needs to come. We need to figure out a better way as a city. 00:58:29
To make sure the develop. 00:58:33
And people are knowing what they're buying before they're buying it because a lot of times people purchase homes or rent. 00:58:36
Units thinking like, oh, I'll be fine, I'll park on the street and then for some reason the city needs to take away street parking 00:58:43
to widen the road or something. And then they're like, oh, they're taking my parking spot away from me. 00:58:49
Even though that technically was never their parking spot, and so it's hard for the city to. 00:58:54
That's why having. 00:58:59
When a. 00:59:02
Has good parking plans and implements it well. It's easy to not complain about parking because you don't have an option. 00:59:04
You have two spots and there are no other. 00:59:11
Whereas if it's lean and it's lacks and it's like, let's just add as many as we can or let's allow the city to let people park 00:59:16
wherever, that's when you start to run into issues because. 00:59:21
Things change. Parking goes away, more people have cars and so. 00:59:28
Finding something is is difficult. 00:59:34
And. 00:59:38
It's it's a requirement. Even if the city lowers the requirement and says you only have to do 1 stall, a good business or a good 00:59:40
developer will know, you know, my customers need this. So I'm going to put in this even though the minimum's one, I'm going to put 00:59:45
in four because I want people to come here that have vehicles or I want people to know that they'll have a parking spot guaranteed 00:59:51
and so. 00:59:57
Minimums. 01:00:04
I think they are. 01:00:07
But I think more important is the way that it's handled when something is built and when people are. 01:00:09
Buying units. They should know what? 01:00:15
Are there any other public comments for the moderate income housing? 01:00:21
Russell Adams, resident and yeah, I'm getting an analogy. 01:00:34
Our house requires, I believe it's R49 installation in the attic. Guess what we got? 01:00:40
We've got. 01:00:46
Hmm. 01:00:48
And I prefer that with the builder, and that's because there's some regulation that they can run around the R49 by considering the 01:00:48
windows, the walls and even the cement floor. 01:00:54
Heat rises. 01:01:00
What what does the cement floor to do to to help the insulated. Meanwhile we've got high high gas bill. 01:01:01
And they've got two things that are in the villas and in the new phase they're putting in the R49 up top, they're not doing the R 01:01:09
48. 01:01:13
But I guess my my my my program in that analogy is that let. 01:01:18
What we need, I said last time in City Council meeting. Excess is probably going to be adequate. 01:01:25
And I believe that because the. 01:01:30
Because of the high density units here have a history of not having enough. 01:01:33
Lakefront preserves. I've seen people come to the village clubhouse, park there multiple times and walk across the street to the 01:01:39
preserves. 01:01:43
And I'm just the witness of that walks. They've been parking on the 8th NI hear they're parking at the front runner station 01:01:47
parking too. Went there last Sunday and they had lot was half full. 01:01:54
In the front runner doesn't run on Sunday. I know some are using the airport, I understand that, but I guess my my comment is to 01:02:00
do it right and build an extra just like engineers. 01:02:07
With safety requirements, they go in extra to make sure that it doesn't fail. 01:02:14
If we build in the next trail, it'll be adequate and I guess. 01:02:20
That's my comment. Thank you. 01:02:25
Any other public comments? 01:02:31
All right. Do you have a motion to close the public? 01:02:34
Close the public hearing. Do I have a second, second, all in favor, aye? 01:02:39
All right. Any comments? 01:02:44
I'll just reiterate. 01:02:49
Let. 01:02:51
It's a good framework to add to our general plan. 01:02:53
I don't know. I like what you got it. I like the fleshing out of each strategy. 01:02:57
I. 01:03:05
I think it creates a nice structure for us to work off of as we move forward. 01:03:06
And hopefully it satisfies. 01:03:12
Because we would really like that funding. 01:03:14
That's a science. Thanks. So I just wanted to clarify then so. 01:03:18
Strategy F is. 01:03:24
G. 01:03:26
Can you verify that, Brian? 01:03:29
And then, as was pointed out, some of these strategies. 01:03:34
Are being included, but have already been. 01:03:38
Worked on or are being addressed. So basically we're saying. 01:03:41
We're going to do this and actually we have done this. 01:03:45
Which is why they're, we're including those is because they're already part of our regular business. 01:03:49
Yeah, that was just my clarity is if we move forward with this. 01:03:56
Anthony, we have. I have him on the board. 01:04:01
So F OK F is F is G. 01:04:05
No. So she she was in her ordinance. The ordinance is mislabeled. That's one of the things that was to be considered was strategy 01:04:11
G, So I wanted to make sure. 01:04:16
OK, And we didn't put it in here, but she was curious what we were leaving off because she was not detailed. Am I capturing that 01:04:21
accurately? That's right. That's right. 01:04:27
Do we want to look? Yeah, if you pull that back up. 01:04:32
So amend. 01:04:39
G is a manned land use regulations to allow for higher density or new moderate income residential development in commercial or 01:04:40
mixed-use zones near major transit investment corridors. Now jump back to the ordinance and just make sure that's the same one. 01:04:47
Yeah, geez, not not in the new strategies at all. So I'm no. And the reason why it's not is because this. 01:05:01
Strategy Strategy four in the general. 01:05:09
Already talked about high density. 01:05:13
So why not? Yeah, G is not, G is not yeah. 01:05:16
OK. 01:05:21
Yeah, sorry. I remember our thinking for that, so. 01:05:22
And then also, I think it's always helpful in public hearings that everyone understands what action is actually being taken. 01:05:28
The Planning Commission, and this would be true for the next agenda item. These are simply recommendations to the City Council, 01:05:35
who would be making the final decision on to agree with disagree scrap recommendations. They're not binding. 01:05:43
All right. Any other comments? 01:05:54
If not, do I have a? 01:05:56
I'll make a motion to. 01:06:00
I guess recommend these. 01:06:03
Strategies to the City Council for General Plan amendment. 01:06:05
Jimmy Morgan, I'm sorry, do we need to state. 01:06:11
The ones. 01:06:16
Adding back in Strategy O and then cleaning up Strategy 7 at the bottom that I showed, yeah Strategy 7. Brian, if you want to 01:06:18
state that what what the amendments are then they can say as the amendments are to reinsert Strategy O from state code Utah State 01:06:26
code 10-98-403, the one that talks about partnering with different entities. 01:06:34
That support the construction of modern income housing. 01:06:43
And then the addition of the implementation plan that I left out on accident for strategy 7. 01:06:47
Which is here in my corrected. 01:06:55
Of the ordinance. That's not correct. 01:06:59
Must have. 01:07:03
Uh. 01:07:06
OK but it it outlines I'll, I'll show you the. 01:07:07
Implementation. 01:07:13
Oh, it won't be on here. 01:07:16
Or maybe it is. I'm sorry. 01:07:19
It is. It's this one Strategy Q which is also Strategy 7, the city. Well, here it is. 01:07:21
I'll read it just so that the city was successful in receiving HRZ designation from the State of Utah. Moving forward, the city 01:07:33
will set up an HTRZ board to oversee, manage and analyze the project to ensure that 11% of the units are deed restricted to 01:07:39
provide modern income housing. This board shall be established by the end of 2023. 01:07:44
That's what we're adding back into Strategy 7. 01:07:50
OK, just make your motion say as stated. OK, I make a motion to recommend. 01:07:56
General Plan amendments for moderate income housing as stated by city staff to the. 01:08:02
City Council. 01:08:08
Do I have a second? 01:08:10
I'll second for approval. All right. And this is a roll call, Craig Anthony. 01:08:12
I Bryce, I take Braden. All right, and that passes. Moving on to 4.2 public hearing for the development agreement for the. 01:08:18
OK. I'm gonna come up in just one second and then we'll turn the time over to Steve. 01:08:31
I wanted to read in the record. We did receive a public comment. The public hearing has been closed. 01:08:39
Want to make sure that the comment. 01:08:49
Is only shred at the. 01:08:52
This is from Dale Deidre, so hopefully I got that right because I cannot be there for the meeting tomorrow night for the Forge. So 01:08:55
I'm letting you know that I'm very concerned about two issues. One, the number of residential units proposed. 01:09:03
And the associated traffic and 2nd the height of the. 01:09:10
Of up to 10 feet. 01:09:14
I think that there's a 10 feet in the car, but I we believe it's meant. 01:09:17
There you go. 01:09:25
Thanks. 01:09:26
Play. 01:09:47
Otherwise not going. 01:10:33
And they flip screens. 01:10:36
I hit in a dozen double screens. All right, well, I hope you can guys sit there. I can do other than we'll zoom. 01:10:39
All right. So Planning Commission, you've you've had work sessions on this. We have the public hearing. Public hearing was 01:10:46
officially closed, City Council last minute. 01:10:51
How the public hearing and and analyze the project with the applicant. What I wanted to do is run through some of these amendments 01:10:56
that have been submitted to address kind of the comments that came from the Planning Commission and also from the City Council. 01:11:03
And so this will kind of help kind of run through some and all these items were were were kind of discussed at the both meetings. 01:11:11
So the the first one area, so these are the changes that have been redlined throughout the agreement. Air meeting income is 01:11:20
defined, that's the Provo. 01:11:23
Or AMITA Metropolitan Statistical Area I. Median income as determined annually by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. 01:11:27
It's clarified that only structured parking may be reimbursable with. Rea will not reimburse surface parking. Site plans are 01:11:35
clarified as a development application. 01:11:41
Definition of unit is clarified to only mean residential units. Open space implementation is clarified for those projects 01:11:47
surrounding the media project area allowing for bonding of 110% of project cost. So for instance if a project is developed in like 01:11:54
Block A, then the landscaping and amenities surrounding that that project would need to be implemented with that project. But for 01:12:01
some reason if. 01:12:08
It's. 01:12:15
Plan to develop right adjacent to that project. 01:12:16
And improving the open space between the two projects. 01:12:20
Will mean basically tearing out improvements that were freshly made. Then it will allow for the bonding. So when that project, 01:12:23
that second project's done, then either the city can come back in and develop the open space or or the developer would then 01:12:29
develop that open space. 01:12:34
Open space credit will be provided for those areas owned by the developer and they include the area along Geneva within orange 01:12:41
boundary will not include right of way. So the reason why we say that is because if as you know in Geneva Rd. there is about 40 01:12:46
feet that is owned by the developer but essentially it's it's in vendors. The boundary line was supposed to be in the center of 01:12:52
the street. 01:12:58
And so we do want to see that 40 feet landscaped and pulled into the trail system. It's going to benefit the city a lot and so. 01:13:04
You know with them expanding those resources to do that and we felt like they should be able to get the credit for it so. 01:13:13
We wanted to make sure that that area was. 01:13:20
Well, it was improved. 01:13:24
Geneva Trail Park will be located on Block H with improvements prior to 750 residential units, certificate of occupancy. So that 01:13:26
kind of and there's a there's a couple. 01:13:31
Different mechanisms that would kind of trigger the dedication on park to us, but that we felt that was the most important one 01:13:38
that you know when half the residential units go in that way we can have a public park that that comes online. As you know with 01:13:44
past developments having amenities come online towards the end have not has not been very popular with with residents. So we want 01:13:50
to make sure we get those at least halfway through. 01:13:56
So they agree to work in good faith with U dot, UTA and the city to connect from our station with a walkway to bring transit 01:14:03
options to the site. So that has been it with ETA and UTA is definitely considering you know, adding more transit options. So we 01:14:11
do have a bus on the road and potentially getting a bus from the station to the the project would be really great. 01:14:19
As for my facilities will not count for his overstation less design in a way that maintains the quality of the amenity. So that's 01:14:27
something that would be determined by the community development directors myself, but we would also bring that through the site 01:14:33
planning process and we Planning Commission would be able to to to consider it as well. What we don't want is, is deep detention 01:14:39
ponds trying to be counted towards as parks, I mean. 01:14:45
Yeah, they might make good amenities, but when they fill up, you got a week or so that you got to let them dry out. So we just, we 01:14:52
want to make sure it's an actual usable space. 01:14:56
One parking stall per bedroom, not to exceed 2.25 stalls per unit. So if it's a two-bedroom, it would require 2 stalls. If it's a 01:15:02
3 bedroom, it would require 2.25. 01:15:07
This is actually an increase over the 1.5 spaces per unit that's in the code now. So this does up and what what this does is it 01:15:12
provides a higher baseline for the first phase. So the first phase that'll come out, I believe the applicant has talked about 300 01:15:20
units. So when the 300 units come out, they would be required to do the one per bedroom not to exceed the 2.25 space installs per 01:15:28
unit. We would then do a parking study and the parking study would analyze the actual on site conditions. 01:15:35
And if more parking is required than future phases would be required to have that up. 01:15:43
So it's in their best interest to manage it at a very high level. It's still a minimum of 1.5 spaces per unit. 01:15:51
In the in the code it is, but this development agreement requires the one stall per per bedroom, so for any single single. 01:15:57
Or studio apartments or one bedrooms, They would just be one stone instead of 1.5. If you want that as condition, that's something 01:16:07
we can talk with with the applicant. If you wanted that as a baseline how, how, how it's written in the development agreement, A 01:16:11
one bedroom would require one stall. 01:16:15
Design criteria is added for buildings along major roads and so staff believes that we need to include Mill Road and 650 N as 01:16:22
major roads and collector roads. Essentially what this means is that we have entrances and architectural features and elements 01:16:29
that help connect the the project outward and not just internally. Internally it's got a great plan. We want to make sure that we 01:16:37
have the entrances and you know windows and get architecture. The code does require a lot of that. We wanted that to be stated. 01:16:44
Within a development agreement as well. 01:16:52
So blocks A&E, those are the two that run adjacent to Mill Rd. will have a height limit of five stories or 75 feet, but you need 01:17:01
to clarify is that whichever is greater or whichever is. 01:17:07
And so that's something, you know, for us to talk about. 01:17:13
You know, we would want that to go or in the development agreement. 01:17:18
Design standards are provided for the shared commercial St. Retail Plaza and E Gateway Linear Park, West Gateway Lanier Park 01:17:21
Internal Alley and the Geneva. 01:17:27
And these are the prevalence motions. The 1st is to approve as present and approve modification. Second one, third one is. 01:17:35
To deny, if you do that, provide some reasons that would be sent to the City Council and for continuation. If you do that, please 01:17:44
provide some direction so we can address those in the next video. 01:17:51
That's everything. 01:17:58
So thanks. 01:18:00
Do you guys have the information on the agreement they have with the RDA as far as? 01:18:04
Reimbursement for the parking structures, at what percentage does that reimbursed or yeah, I I haven't worked on that as much. I 01:18:10
think it's 75% of the increment, but I'd like to expect Steve could probably answer that better. 01:18:17
So that kind of falls outside of what I do. 01:18:25
I was just curious. 01:18:28
One thing I didn't see in there that I know we discussed in the last meetings and it was. 01:18:35
Maybe alluded to in that public comment that you read in. 01:18:40
You know, building. 01:18:44
In and of itself isn't necessarily an issue, but if it's blocking views, I think like the natural beauty, whether it's the lake or 01:18:46
the mountain. 01:18:50
What's the best? 01:18:55
That staff would recommend to ensure that. 01:18:57
Sight lines are preserved obviously like any type of building from some vantage point is going to block something. But you know 01:19:00
maybe it's you know measuring it from the West side of the tracks in the neighborhood if they if anything. Yeah. I mean the 01:19:07
easiest way is this is to cap the height that's that that that's what we did. We're fairly confident that that will at least help 01:19:14
preserve kind of the foothills of the mountains up I Steve may have provided exhibit did you. 01:19:21
I think you said you're done so far. 01:19:30
So but yeah, height is in zoning. That's always your easiest you could require. 01:19:36
View corridor that diagrams and territory site plans what the requirement that it not not block the mountains. 01:19:46
Those are kind of hard. I think just the the height is a very clear and objective wave down and that's kind of what Utah coast 01:19:54
says is beacon size the objective and. 01:19:59
That's the easiest way. 01:20:04
Yeah, my only other comment was I was happy to see. 01:20:06
The parking study, parking plan language in there because you know, within this room. 01:20:10
There's lots of variation and what people think is appropriate for density and that's you know, there's there isn't a right or 01:20:15
wrong but I think what? 01:20:19
We can all agree on is no one wants to plan for failure or plan for problems, right? And so I think. 01:20:23
I was pleased to see that language and I actually think it should be a part of basically everything we do moving forward where 01:20:30
build a little bit, stop, evaluate. 01:20:34
Is this working? Is it not? And then move forward based on that? Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. We started out with downtown. We wanted 01:20:38
to carry that forward with the Forge and really any other developments. 01:20:43
So. 01:20:48
And then when you guys come up, if you could talk about the traffic study that you had done, the flow of inward and outward 01:20:51
traffic that we talked about that would be. 01:20:55
That's. 01:21:01
Play. 01:21:14
Hello again. 01:21:51
Nice to be here in front of you. 01:21:54
I think everybody knows me. I'm Steve Borup. I'm the Director of Development with Dakota Pacific, and this is Brian Dillio. Let 01:21:57
him introduce himself. 01:22:01
Hello everyone. Thank you for your your time and consideration. My name is Brian Dilley, Managing Director at Dakota Pacific Real 01:22:06
Estate. 01:22:10
Jeff had done engagements elsewhere. 01:22:16
Just to address the two comments that came up before we get into the presentation, the view corridors, we do have a study going on 01:22:21
to confirm the five stories won't block any views. And what we did is we stood kind of halfway into the UVU land. You notice that 01:22:27
that kind of dirt, asphalt, Rd. we kind of stood in that area and took some pictures and then they're tying that to the model. We 01:22:34
should have that hopefully in the next few days. That'll just confirm. 01:22:41
Those mountains we did rough calculation just kind of based on the basic geometry. The mountains this tall and you know 7 1/2 01:22:47
miles away and what will it look like if you know a few 100 feet away you have a five story building it looked like just from the 01:22:53
rest study you know you're not blocking any more than. 01:22:58
Or 2/3 or more of that mountain would be visible to five story there, but but again we'll have a confirmation on that but that was 01:23:05
the preliminary so. 01:23:08
Generally still like those views from about halfway into that field should be not impacted and of course if you go further into 01:23:14
the residence even further to the West that that impact would be reduced even more so. 01:23:20
In regards to the traffic study I did, I do have a slide, so just in way of background it was brought up that. 01:23:27
How is it the traffic so that the basic findings of? 01:23:34
Of the. 01:23:39
And I can zoom in if we need to on some of those tables, but the basic finding was that. 01:23:42
1.1 million square feet of. 01:23:47
Is more impactful to the intersections and the level of service of those intersections than what we're proposing by reducing the 01:23:51
office and bringing in up to 1500 residential. 01:23:55
Units, and I think the question that Commissioner Brady asked. 01:24:00
How does that work? Because office would be leaving while residents are coming in and therefore the flow of traffic. 01:24:05
Should be improved and this is the statement from our traffic engineers that overall as expected, the office had a worse level, 01:24:13
especially during the evening peak hour. This is primarily due to the increased number of vehicles trying to exit the site while 01:24:17
the traffic volumes on the mainland are still very high. 01:24:22
And so that was from Hales Engineering. 01:24:27
They gave some basic trip information, but the basic premise was now all these people are trying to leave Vineyard and you've got 01:24:30
to provide green lights for them to leave Vineyard and therefore the people coming into Vineyard no longer have as much green 01:24:37
light time, right? So the programming of that, of that stop light creates A detriment to the overall intersection. 01:24:43
And so there was, you know this statement kind of summarizes that it was, it was still a negative impact and we had to run that 01:24:50
that that study. And so there was an e-mail as well and I think that got forwarded on that kind of had all that detail in it and 01:24:56
we can certainly share more of of those findings but. 01:25:02
We did have Commission, a specific study for it and Commissioner Braider and it came back the same. 01:25:08
OK. 01:25:13
Alright. And did you have the, do you have a slide like this for the project like as you've presented it? 01:25:14
Umm. 01:25:24
Yeah, so this was this is the level of service of each intersection. 01:25:27
That full build out future 2050 with with with a background. 01:25:32
In it, right. So all the other growth around us as well. 01:25:37
The capital letters are signaled intersections and the the lowercase are not signaled intersections. 01:25:41
You have a slide for what that would be. I mean, some of those roads aren't there 650 N isn't there? 01:25:50
I think they're all here. 650 N Mill Road, 650 Geneva. I mean it it doesn't connect to Geneva currently, is what I'm saying. 01:25:57
Like these are 2050 I assume that assumes that the rails gone that center St. has two lanes. It does assume the Interstate. Yeah 01:26:06
that's connector also has two lanes. So do you have a study that shows? 01:26:12
Our current conditions without the rail spur removed, so the background. 01:26:18
Today is the current condition. 01:26:22
So first. 01:26:26
Yeah. And let me just go because we ran a 1200 units in scenario 1500 units, the level of service didn't change. 01:26:27
Uh uh. 01:26:35
There was no impact to the intersections between those two in terms of level of service, that pretty much resulted in the same. 01:26:36
Existing. 01:26:43
Right. And this was kind of if we implement phase one and this was when the whole thing was built out and so. 01:26:46
Built out and a whole bunch of time has gone by and it's 2050. So that's the basic criteria that the the ITE standards I think 01:26:55
required. 01:26:59
To put it into those 3 buckets. 01:27:04
So this. 01:27:14
Kind of looks to me like the problem areas that were called out earlier. 01:27:16
Mill Rd. Center St. Geneva Rd. 01:27:20
Yeah. Then you're connected. Geneva Rd. 01:27:23
Yep. It's it's it's Center St. in Geneva. Not expected to be good in the future. It's basically right. It's, it's Center St. 01:27:26
Geneva. It's vineyard connector Geneva. They're tough intersections. They're challenging again. 01:27:34
Background includes the downtown and everything that's going on there. All that's happening as far as connecting that road up 01:27:43
through the north, all of that is kind of included into the background mitigated. 01:27:47
But a lot of dual left turn lanes is are some of those mitigations? 01:27:54
At those at those key intersections. 01:28:00
In order to achieve the mitigations. 01:28:03
Steve, do you, I don't know if you saw this, did you model it at 1500 units? 01:28:06
Yeah, that's what this was here. So this is, yeah, that's the same one. You can see the level of service at the intersection is 01:28:10
really the same at 2050, but. 01:28:15
These are peak hours. 01:28:22
Yeah, evening and AM PM. 01:28:25
But as I stated before, I really feel the key issue in terms of what we're approving here is a change of use, right? Not a use. 01:28:30
And the change of use is incrementally beneficial. 01:28:37
Any which way that the health engineering has run it and. 01:28:41
That's that's what's I think relevant to the decision of can we change the use. 01:28:45
You explain again the difference between the background column and the background of the gated. 01:28:51
I can. I can pull up the study, the background mitigated. Just assume certain mitigations. 01:28:56
Yeah. But I mean, if we're going from F to A, that sounds like a an interesting mitigation. Yeah, that's one in the works for. 01:29:03
Yeah, Mill Rd. Center, St. Geneva. 01:29:14
That is. 01:29:18
Yeah, that that is adding. 01:29:21
Yeah, OK. 01:29:26
Yeah. So for the North and Mill Rd. that's on the basis that. 01:29:29
Intersection there with real development to allow for the pedestrian crossing east to West. 01:29:35
Yeah, I agree that would make a huge difference. 5 lane cross section. 01:29:42
And Signal was the big one that they listed as the mitigation there. 01:29:48
And what about for the 800 N and Geneva road and center St. Union Rd. Because those those are going from F to D. 01:29:53
Just heading in the right direction. 01:30:00
On which ones? 01:30:04
Yeah, this one has to be this one vineyard connector. 01:30:06
And 8th. 01:30:10
Widen Vineyard connector to five lane. Cross section through Geneva Rd. intersection. Allow for two through lane each direction. 01:30:14
So yeah, U dot project, right turn lane on the northbound approach and then you're connected to Geneva. So there's also a right 01:30:21
turn line that's that would be the excuse me for the honesty that would be EU dot project about the restriping that they have 01:30:27
currently on the books to do this next construction season. So they understand that the background mitigated are those projects 01:30:33
that are already in process announced in the works and. 01:30:39
Yeah, and also Center Street with the removal. 01:30:47
Just setting up everything was last week talking to Orange city engineer at Sam Kelly. They planned, and I mean it's not official 01:30:51
until it's approved by the city of ARM but they plan on doing the widening between. 01:30:57
Geneva. 01:31:04
From Geneva to I-15. 01:31:06
To allow for the traffic, we actually had a conversation with you guys about that as well today. I think they said it would be two 01:31:09
through lanes, so the pinch point moves. 01:31:15
And also the additional background to this conversation. So the City of India is actually a process of reviewing several proposals 01:31:22
for for an update to Translation Master plan. 01:31:29
City. 01:31:37
On this, I guess citywide where it's going to be looking at focusing on key areas of key areas and concerns of the city, but also 01:31:40
going through there and. 01:31:46
Making, making projections for the future growth areas as well. So some of the items that were brought on this kind of. 01:31:53
Hells, Hells Engineering has done quite a bit of work. So projecting quite a bit of improvements as well that are not to be 01:32:01
needed. For example with the traffic channels that redress with the traffic signalizations with with timing. I know UDOT 01:32:08
particularly has studies going on in terms of adjusting timing. It's a it's a process, it's not just doing doing it at one light, 01:32:15
it's doing it along a corridor to ensure that one light doesn't affect the whole corridor as well. 01:32:23
So those are those are those are items and then Vineyard City plans on avoiding. 01:32:30
The transportation Master plan and next next few weeks and going through the process and going through the process and as well as 01:32:39
during the engineering and final finalization of the Forge. 01:32:45
The part of the development agreement has that they will be providing a. 01:32:53
Utility studies to include. 01:32:58
Transportation impact studies. So any kind of adjustments that are done on file adjustments are done based on the engineering 01:33:02
designs they will be having to assess. 01:33:06
The impact to the transportation network specifically, obviously they have not done the deep dive on that since the designs are 01:33:12
not being finalized yet. 01:33:16
So just to put out the consideration and those utility studies will be reviewed by the city, the city engineer and recommendations 01:33:21
on ensuring that the level of service has not increased will be done at that time. 01:33:28
And I'll just go back to the. 01:33:38
What? 01:33:41
Office Heavy 489 More TR. 01:33:43
Entering. 01:33:46
And 375 more leaving in the evening peak hour versus those two, that's what drove it, right. It's just more trips office, I think 01:33:48
we talked about it last time, there are more cars per square foot of office than there are in residential dwelling units and so 01:33:53
that creates more trips. 01:33:59
And that's what that's what drove again to need to be able to push more more out with with more green light time. 01:34:05
I. 01:34:17
I printed off with all the. 01:34:20
The changes that have kind of been coming in on the request I just printed off a tracking sheet. 01:34:23
And I'm going to address certain ones of these and I've highlighted those on this, but is it OK if I just pass these out real 01:34:29
quick so everybody can kind of see the full list and refer to it if you need? 01:34:33
So this is just a log of everything that we have discussed at one point or another with the city. 01:34:44
Steve, can you want to Rachel for our records? 01:34:51
Also I guess quick question about the traffic also. 01:35:08
It's considering the 1500 units. Is it also considering commercial and office space? Yeah, it's still the 600,000. 01:35:13
5 to 600,000 square feet of of commercial as well. 01:35:22
So just look over what I've just handed out. I've highlighted in blue those items that I'm going to address tonight with a slide 01:35:30
and go a little bit more depth in into that. I thought either needed some clarification or some discussion. 01:35:36
Happy to discuss any others that anybody else has on the list. 01:35:44
But these are the ones that will be going into SO. 01:35:47
If anything else comes up, you can just call it out by row number there and we will address it. 01:35:51
Umm. 01:35:59
Number one on the list was affordable housing. 01:36:01
And we've had other slides and committed to up to 25 developer contributed units for the 1st 1300 residential units. So I guess 01:36:04
there's some change to this language versus what it has been. I'm just trying to clarify. 01:36:09
That we're going to deliver one for 52 market units. So we'll phase them in as we deliver units, if that makes sense. 01:36:15
And we've already committed to the 20. 01:36:23
Is there a city manager asked. What about if we go from 1300 to 1500, how does that work? And so we've committed here to do it an 01:36:27
additional 4 units. 01:36:31
Assuming that 1500 units are approved and those would be added when units 1301 to 1500. 01:36:36
Are added at a rate of 1 per 50 market rate units and then we've talked about deed restricting those for 25 to 30 years. And so 01:36:43
the development agreement had I think some placeholders of the draft that you reviewed. 01:36:49
And so this is some clarifying language of what we're proposing. I believe in the, in the development agreement it says 60 or 60 01:36:55
markets, we might end it. It does. We reduce that just to make sure it was. 01:37:00
Consistent because we're now breaking out between the 1 to 13101 to 15. I just want to make sure those rates are consistent 01:37:06
because that is 1500. 01:37:10
Does that make sense? Yep. 01:37:15
And then in addition, we've been talking with. 01:37:18
The city just about additional RDA funded and you know we presented a slide that shows that we could potentially add additional 01:37:21
and so we are will commit to work with the city on additional RDA funded. 01:37:28
Those units and how many of those will be determined based on the available funding obviously with the RDA each year and at the 01:37:35
end of the end of the year, there'll be an application made assuming that we met the qualifications for affordable housing and 01:37:39
that can be reimbursed. 01:37:43
And so that'll be added as well. So anywhere there's an. 01:37:49
By any of these sentences, this is something that's slightly different or modified versus the language of the development 01:37:52
agreement that you. 01:37:55
Were provided on Tuesday, Tuesday. So these are just some clar. 01:37:58
Clarifying language that we've come up with in the last few days after talking with staff. 01:38:02
In there, there's also the option for the city to come back and say if we agree to a place where there's surface parking, what 01:38:08
does that do? We take the same economic concession that we've given and we turn that back into additional affordable housing if we 01:38:12
find an area with surface. 01:38:17
And the same is true with option #2 if you come back and say, well, like 70% is the right number. 01:38:22
You tell us that within the first year of the development agreement being signed so we can react to it in time. 01:38:27
Then. 01:38:33
Then again, we take the same economic benefit and we contribute that to additional affordable units. Is that all? 01:38:35
Does it all make sense on what we're proposing? 01:38:41
Any questions or comments on affordable? 01:38:45
One of the requests was for what can change in the master plan and what can't. And so in exhibit E we provided in paragraph 2A 01:38:51
statement that basically says. 01:38:56
These are the areas that we're providing, right. This table over here is in the development agreement and says this is the acreage 01:39:01
for each area when we come and we submit a site plan that shows the adjacent. 01:39:06
Open space areas that have to be developed concurrently, we can plus or minus that 10% without having to go back for City Council 01:39:13
approval on. 01:39:17
However, the total acreage still needs to meet the 5.9 private open space acreage. 01:39:21
And then of course we have the Geneva Trail park which we are donating. There will be a public park to get to the 6.9 or 7 acres 01:39:28
that we've been talking about before, so. 01:39:32
We'll we'll bring a site plan. 01:39:37
The size and the shape might slightly be different, right? The East Gateway park might be different because that building shape 01:39:39
might be different, but the basic acreage is ±10%. 01:39:44
And then when we're all said and done, it needs to equal to 5.9 for private open space. 01:39:48
Any questions or concerns? So when you do that, would you just remember to clarify that with us just we don't forget or do you 01:39:55
need to, I guess does that make sense as far as each site plan? Yeah or is that too much effort? I guess you know what I'm saying, 01:40:01
it's an accountability with each site plan and I'm sure that I'm sure that Morgan is going to be. 01:40:07
I just figured it would be. I just didn't know. And we we could too. I mean, as a Planning Commission, you should say. 01:40:15
You know where where we at? You know get the site plan 3 and yeah, you know. 01:40:21
I don't. I haven't been through a site plan to venture, but often times it's here's all the requirements. Here's how. 01:40:27
The applicant met them, right. They'll usually go to zoning, which is correct. Basically the zoning and we would we would 01:40:32
reconcile it in there. 01:40:36
Are usually really hard for me to get over detail in there, so I guess that's true. So thank you. 01:40:40
OK. I'll, I'll move on. 01:40:47
Question. So comment #18 there. When is open space that we were committing to providing going to be? 01:40:51
Constructed and so. 01:40:58
In paragraph 2.3 of the development agreement, we say basically it has to be improved no later than the development of immediately 01:41:01
adjacent parcel structures or parcels. So I'm going to go through a couple examples just so it's clear Morgan brought this up 01:41:05
earlier. 01:41:10
But if we were to come in and say we want to develop this hotel, all this dashed area around that hotel would have to be 01:41:15
delivered. In this case, the parking would also have to be delivered. And so basically the extent of all. 01:41:20
The alleyway would need to be delivered with that hotel Hotel development. 01:41:26
As Morgan said, if we were to then come back and say, well actually we're going to start to, you know, breaking ground on this in 01:41:32
six months. 01:41:35
It may not make. 01:41:38
To deliver the entire. 01:41:39
Of this alley trail, and therefore we could bond. 01:41:41
For this, do the construction and bring it all. 01:41:45
In one part, the other thing that we're. 01:41:48
Is that there'll be some kind of continuity for pedestrians within a block. 01:41:52
You know, in this case the parking and the structures will be separate. But if for some reason we were only to develop this 01:41:58
building and therefore had to approve improve this, there's also a requirement for us to provide at least temporary means to have 01:42:02
continuity for pedestrians through a block. 01:42:06
And I'll show that again in another example. 01:42:10
And then the last thing that we added there that is an asterisk after that is just that Central Plaza, any building built next to 01:42:13
that we're going to dividing that in half meaning. 01:42:17
If there's a building on half of it, we have to develop half of it, not necessarily the entirety of it. So right. It's already 01:42:21
kind of got some symmetry to it, which I'll show you in the next example. 01:42:26
Here's another example. If we were to build on this corner, this is vineyard connector. This is Geneva trail, you know here at 01:42:32
this E Gateway park, then gets developed as well as the shared St. next to it. 01:42:37
If we were to build this office building, you don't want to deal with the parking within it. Really, the the parking will be here 01:42:43
and it'll be built together. We would develop everything that's adjacent and half of the Central Park when this one's built. 01:42:48
Obviously, when this building's built or this building's built in, the other half of the Central Park would be built. 01:42:54
And then we would again be required to provide some continuity because this is within a block to provide pedestrian access in the 01:43:01
example on the left would so the open space corridor. 01:43:06
Kind of the alley that is to the West, what what would happen there with that? Yeah, I should have highlighted this as well, 01:43:14
right. Because technically this is open space, we've called it amenity open space, but that road only obviously be developed to 01:43:19
get the parking into it and then for that area around it would also be adjacent. 01:43:25
Any questions or clarity needed? 01:43:37
What we proposed for the phasing? 01:43:40
Great parking. 01:43:46
You know, we've talked about this. 01:43:50
I think we've mentioned. 01:43:52
That we. 01:43:54
Having visited four or five or six public meetings now, I think parking takes up half of them and the discussion time, we 01:43:55
understand it's a big deal. We just. 01:44:00
To address. 01:44:06
Some sensitivities. 01:44:07
I'm not quite sure we have the right language for you. 01:44:10
You know. 01:44:14
Concern was, are we responsible to provide parking for the theater, right? 01:44:15
If we go to a parking study in the theaters parked all over our parking spots, is that become our problem financially and 01:44:21
economically And so we just need some kind of a statement in there to say. 01:44:25
We're not responsible for infiltration and we can measure that. Typically Hales would do a study when that theater's not at full 01:44:31
capacity and therefore right if it fails with the with the parking engineer. 01:44:36
So that doesn't become an issue, but sorry, comment. 01:44:42
You know if people are parked. 01:44:48
That's parking that's not there for the residents, so I would say. 01:44:50
Yes, it would be your problem to ensure that infiltration doesn't take place on. 01:44:55
Parking spots, I mean, because that's reality and that's what the parking studies would do. So if if we're. 01:45:00
If you eliminate what's reality in a parking study. 01:45:08
Then it's not gonna. 01:45:12
What's the plan for in reality is that's my gut feel. 01:45:15
Yes, I get what you're saying. Like if someone was parking in my driveway and you came by and said, hey. 01:45:19
Yeah, you've got three cars. Like no, I don't. That's somebody else's. They shouldn't be there. But like I would put that on me to 01:45:24
be like, yeah, they don't belong here. They like I need to get rid of it as far as parking management to ensure that parking with 01:45:28
agreed. 01:45:33
So I hesitate to we and and and this is, you know, we. 01:45:38
You shouldn't be financially liable to be, you know, an extra parking lot for a different business that's not related to yours. I 01:46:15
I get that, but I also want to acknowledge that. 01:46:21
If fifty of your spots are used up by infiltrators. 01:46:27
That's fifty spots that Aren. 01:46:30
For the residents there, like that's reality, right? So I think. 01:46:33
That's that would be what I would consider a parking problem there would need to be addressed before we move forward. 01:46:38
That's all I'm saying. I'm on the same page, addressed with. 01:46:45
Ensuring that the infiltration isn't occurring, not necessarily addressed, however. Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, it depends. I mean if 01:46:49
you're so if you're going parking structures, I mean that that's going to be a lot easier for you for you to to manage those. 01:46:56
On on the streets you're going to get some during your normal operation, but if if someone is there at 1:00 AM, you know, I mean 01:47:02
that that's where the enforcement mechanism. So if you start off with enforcement and permits, you know let's say at night you, 01:47:07
you let residents there park at night, but they have to be gone you know at 6:00 AM or or whatever so the retail spaces can open 01:47:12
back up. 01:47:17
Umm. 01:47:23
I I don't think we want to Ding you for having a mixed-use site where you know where there's some flexibility people can park once 01:47:24
but. 01:47:29
You know we we do need to ensure that the like the management is done at a higher level and so that that that's why I'm kind of 01:47:34
cautious about saying we take that fully off because I don't want to take the kind of responsibility of managing the system out of 01:47:38
the equation. 01:47:43
Agreed. The only way this works for us is if we manage it right because you put it, you put the if it's not managed well, now all 01:47:51
of a sudden our project and land isn't viable anymore because we have to provide more parking than we can economically absorb, 01:47:57
right? And so. 01:48:02
That becomes the challenge. I'll just. 01:48:08
We have customers on our side and they need certainty, right. Those customers are called investors and it's really hard to be able 01:48:12
to. 01:48:16
Investor, you're now responsible to pay for the theaters parking and so that's all I'm trying to say here is. 01:48:21
Somehow we need to account for that and understand it and work together to find a solution and just instead of just saying. 01:48:27
Developer people are parking there when they shouldn't. You're doing everything you can to enforce. 01:48:33
You know, and maybe it's that's outside of our ability to enforce there's there's got to be some kind of disclaimer to be able to 01:48:38
understand that and have a discussion instead of just assuming carte Blanc. It's our, it's our problem because people are 01:48:43
overflowing into our. Yeah. And I don't want to be like cold hearted about it, but it sounds like you've got a whole lot of 01:48:48
motivation to do it right then. That's right. So and I think that's kind of what we're going for here which which is the which is 01:48:52
the incentive you guys are trying to create. 01:48:57
And then the other thing I think we have to address in that language. 01:49:06
You know. 01:49:09
We are planning to develop an own long term multifamily housing commercial. 01:49:11
But there is a provision right to to sell land and there is a right for a landowner to sell. And so just so that this agreement is 01:49:17
watertight. And if that were to happen now, how does this work right, We do a parking study. 01:49:23
Landlord A is not managing their parking very well. Landlord B is now impacted by that. Just how does that work and how does that 01:49:29
get mediated? 01:49:33
And all I'm saying is, maybe it's not. 01:49:36
We just take the results of the parking study, maybe it's about management and having a discussion and being able to account for 01:49:40
some of those kind of things as well. So that landlord, you know Developer B is going to put up in the building isn't necessarily. 01:49:46
Negatively impacted by poor management. Again it's, it's, it's, it's how do we manage poor management. And I will say one thing 01:49:52
that we're going to have here that I don't know you have anywhere else is, is this parking management plan is going to be recorded 01:49:56
covenant. 01:49:59
So we're going to bring to you like this is a parking permit is going to work. This is how monitoring is going to work and now 01:50:04
there is a recorded covenant which. 01:50:08
You know, if Legal was here, they could talk about the city's ability to enforce a recorded covenant. 01:50:12
That I don't know that you have anywhere else in terms of enforcement. I think, I think it'll give you more leverage, but again 01:50:17
probably outside of my, my purview to say, but maybe Morgan or somebody else knows more about that but. 01:50:23
So we'll have to talk to Jamie about it. Typically you know I'm not definitely not an expert on covenants, but we've we've always 01:50:29
been given the direction that the city doesn't enforce. 01:50:34
Covenants, but if they're if, if the management plan is something that gets approved by the city. 01:50:40
Then we could, we can and we can enforce city plans and things that have been approved by the city. 01:50:46
So we'd have to, we have to look at the, the covenant issue and maybe the covenants provide the city that ability to do some 01:50:54
enforcement. But I think our our thinking was that it would be enforced privately, you know like they they would they would 01:51:00
contract with a towing company. Yeah, no, the initial management of those are understanding if we're not, if we're not managing 01:51:06
what we promised to manage. I think I think that gives you guys an additional layer of teeth. 01:51:11
So kind of the same feelings as Anthony on this one, too. 01:51:19
We've had other developments and made promises and. 01:51:22
The only teeth, really, that the city can have is. 01:51:27
By a say say the first development is not managed well and they needed 500 more parking spots. 01:51:31
Well, we can just look at the new one and be like, well, they needed 500 more, so you need 500 more. But we're just stuck with the 01:51:39
crap parking that's on the first one, like it needs to be mitigated in the second one. So if the parking study says that they're 01:51:46
failing or they need more units for that, I think that they need to be covered in the next phase of development. 01:51:53
You mean building #2 would actually cover the the issue the building #1? 01:52:01
Yeah, that's. 01:52:08
I mean if you can't have, if you don't feel confident enough in your management, then I don't feel confident in it happening. Like 01:52:10
it's not that we don't feel confident in the management. I don't think that's, I don't think that's the concern. Then why are you 01:52:15
concerned? It's just it's again think of the sequence of ownership, it may not even be our management. 01:52:20
I mean the value, the value of the property is going to be less if it's not managed correctly. So agreed, so which? 01:52:27
Which is our concern because if we were to sell a building. 01:52:34
And again, I'm not saying that we're we're going. 01:52:37
Our desire is to hold, but we have the same concern now that you do is if that isn't managed well, now we're. 01:52:41
We're detriment like we have to make up what they what they're not managing well. So it's either we get screwed or you get screwed 01:52:48
like it's a tough it's a tough issue isn't it. Yeah. So but we're not in charge of the management you are So that's where I kind 01:52:53
of we are if we own the building I but I mean don't you own the land, Steve won't there be like a master association that and then 01:52:59
that association could could enforce the CCNRS. I mean I I I think so even if I mean you look at a homeowners association you 01:53:05
might have. 01:53:11
You know, 100 different owners, but they're, you know, there, there is an enforcement mechanism that can enforce it. Everyone, 01:53:17
yeah. 01:53:20
So I think that's kind of what we're talking about. If if there's at least like 1 consistent management arm that can cover the 01:53:24
entire development, I think that's satisfying. 01:53:28
So how how do we have teeth? Like if the first phase of the development comes in and they need 500? This is a drastic example, 01:53:33
right? They need 500 extra stalls and it's like well. 01:53:38
Dang it. Like we'll fix the next one, but that one's still a big problem. Like. 01:53:45
I don't understand how that that would be fine with us. Yeah, I see your point that that's something that Ezra and I have have 01:53:50
talked about. 01:53:55
Yeah, I mean you have to be that put in the development agreement if if you wanted them to make up for for those, those parking 01:54:01
spaces and obviously you're hearing for Steve that they're, you know they're they're opposed to doing that and I understand 01:54:06
because that provides. 01:54:10
A lot of unknowns, you know that's and the unknowns are tough for developers that could millions of dollars into these projects 01:54:16
and so it it's hard to have an unknown like that but yeah. 01:54:22
I definitely see why you're concerned about it and wanting to ensure that. 01:54:28
That the lack of parking in the first phase is made-up in the second phase. And so then ultimately I think that that would put 01:54:34
even a stronger motivation to the developer to to manage the parking really well, yeah. 01:54:40
And I I think that's the general theme is like from the get go, we just want. 01:54:47
You know, and no, no, no, I see them. He's on top of it. So I think that that's what they're gonna that's that's what they're 01:54:51
gonna strive for. But you you want some protection in the development agreement. 01:54:56
I mean, just even the idea and a rap building to think that. 01:55:07
Now people are going to be parking in a different building in a residential. I mean the functionality of that is I think 01:55:11
challenging. You have two different owners. That's now very challenging. 01:55:16
I just don't know how water tight that is. I understand why you want it. I think it makes if I'm in your chair, I want the same 01:55:21
thing. 01:55:24
But given the constraints, I don't see how that's feasible from our side. 01:55:28
I honestly, I I. 01:55:37
For me personally, I don't know about the other commissioners. I I couldn't depend on that. 01:55:39
We just with all the other developments and the problems we've been having and promises that have been made, I'd hate to be. 01:55:46
Yeah, do it. And if your management isn't good like, Oh well. 01:55:53
Like I can't. 01:55:57
That's for me personally, I. 01:55:59
I think the frame that's difficult for people. 01:56:02
We're going to. 01:56:08
I don't know what it'll be. 01:56:10
Because the parking ratio per square foot is so much higher for office. 01:56:13
As we attract commercial users. 01:56:17
Extra We're going to talk about excess parking. 01:56:23
With a mixed-use development, you are building an excess evening parking. If there's going to be a parking constraint, it's going 01:56:27
to be in the daytime when commercial and there's a certain portion of the residential units through. 01:56:32
So it really shouldn't be an issue, so there shouldn't be a problem. 01:56:37
I It's reassuring hearing that. 01:56:40
But then you also seem concerned about what the parking study will show. If I might the the concern is like he's been mentioning 01:56:44
on the office perspective. 01:56:49
Say for example we develop an office. 01:56:54
You know the there's parking minimums in the code to be able to provide, you know, in theory, sufficient stalls for those office 01:56:58
buildings. 01:57:02
Say that somebody you know wants to do a build a suit. It's a company that wants to own the building so that that business card, 01:57:06
you know they they buy the property. 01:57:11
They have the building so that they go out of business and a call center, you know, ends up going in there. All of a sudden their 01:57:15
parking requirement is no longer three per thousand, it's like 10 per thousand. 01:57:21
And we can have the liability of having to come back. 01:57:27
And. 01:57:31
Provide parking for building that we don't even know anymore. So who provides it? 01:57:32
That's what, that's the issue We're coming to like we can't possibly. It's a management enforcement issue. Yeah, Yeah. Which is 01:57:38
out of our hands, which, which, I mean this kind of goes back to the same thing. 01:57:43
Maybe we're spinning our wheels too much here, but. 01:57:51
Would a tenant come in if they needed? 01:57:54
Spots per 1000 and there was only three. My my assumption is if someone was going to drop that cash on moving a company here. 01:57:57
They probably say, oh, it doesn't meet our needs. Yeah, I mean that's how I would. We've seen from a financing standpoint that 01:58:05
like. 01:58:09
You know parking is important too from from from the, you know, the lenders. And so you know if a company wants to come in and do 01:58:14
have, they have a requirement of 10 per thousand and they're trying to get. 01:58:19
Lending so they can do the TI and a lot. They may have a hard time and I'm happy to go on the record saying like I'm actually not 01:58:25
one that's opposed to the amount of proposed density maybe in the minority. 01:58:32
As long. 01:58:39
These things are mitigated, right? So like I I don't have a problem with 1500 units if. 01:58:41
These things are mitigated and. 01:58:47
What? 01:58:49
What I'm likely to recommend? 01:58:51
Not getting rid of like the infiltration of future projects only a lot of that, because I feel like that would. 01:58:53
That would allow for. 01:58:59
Basically we're planning for success. I get that it causes some. 01:59:00
Issues or maybe not issues, but. 01:59:04
Extra challenges for you as a developer to figure out, but. 01:59:09
The alternative is, you know, current zoning can also move forward with, but that also proposes its own challenges. So I don't 01:59:15
know, I don't, I don't necessarily need to go any further on that. I think. I think I've been pretty clear on that one. 01:59:21
Eliminates the ability to trans. 01:59:28
Which, for a developer, is the nuclear problem. 01:59:31
We just can't sign up for something that won't allow us to transact and so. 01:59:36
Right. We have land we can't transact on right now and it's not very fun. So and and obviously the Planning Commission is 01:59:41
providing the recommendation of the City Council. So what I recommend doing I think you guys have been considerate of of kind of 01:59:47
what the land owners issues are they have been considered the city. There's some things that you may not agree on 100%. What I'd 01:59:53
recommend doing if you if you do want something as part of the recommendation you put you put it in your motion and then that's 01:59:58
something that. 02:00:04
Could be a discussion with the City Council ultimately when they when they make the approval. 02:00:11
So like, I'm not saying you guys don't necessarily need to come to an agreement, You can say this is what our desire is, Planning 02:00:15
Commission, the City Council can consider it. 02:00:19
Yeah. 02:00:24
It's an uncomfortable stance because we understand. I really do understand. 02:00:25
But I also understand. 02:00:29
The issue that we could experience on our sites. 02:00:32
For sale units to Mr. Breyer, thank you. Were at the City Council meeting and you heard some of the discussion there and I sent a 02:00:38
follow up e-mail. We're not opposed to this. We again just see some headwinds on it that we're not quite sure how to get over that 02:00:44
hurdle yet and therefore committing to the development agreement is challenging. 02:00:50
Again, I think the goal was good and I think the idea is is. 02:00:57
Changing the market dynamics obviously for sale product isn't doing fantastic right now. 02:01:02
When, when that'll end, I don't know for sure. 02:01:07
Interest rates will affect that, obviously the building scale driven by the underlying zoning requirements. 02:01:11
You know you can't build a parking structure for a small little development and make it financially work. It needs scale and mass 02:01:17
and therefore you would be required to do for sale units in scale and mass and and that just creates again a certain amount of 02:01:22
risk. 02:01:26
We're not sure. 02:01:32
How the market would react to and therefore it would take a lot more study and a lot more understanding. 02:01:34
And then the last thing that the parking structures again you're going to add 50 sixty $70,000 a unit just because of the the the 02:01:39
cost of structured parking versus say a condo a townhome that you don't have a garage in a in a. 02:01:44
If if if we're competing with $375,000 condos in town homes and now we're just having to be 454 sixty, we're not sure the market 02:01:51
will pay for that premium just to be to be there and so. 02:01:57
Just there have to be stud. 02:02:04
In thinking about the site plan, if there's a pocket where we can fit some three story townhomes with some tech under garages, 02:02:06
right, I think that's a great idea and we love it. I'm just not quite sure how to fit that into the plan yet. And I think as we 02:02:10
develop the site plans. 02:02:14
Some opportunities like that make me show themselves and we could definitely address it so. 02:02:18
So that was that's the response in for sale any discussion wanted there. 02:02:25
There was a request on comment #24 of the sheet there to How do we ensure that pedestrian priority on the central shared St. 02:02:32
And. 02:02:41
In. 02:02:43
Of the development agreement we talk about design guidelines and this is just a snippet for the central shared St. 02:02:45
And you can just see we've highlighted several things that talk about that, but this is the big one, emphasized pedestrian micro 02:02:54
mobility flow. So the idea is we'll bring a site plan. 02:02:58
We're gonna detail design what that shirt St. looks like. 02:03:03
And again kind of getting back to that site plan criteria, the criteria then go back to this development agreement and say. 02:03:07
Developer, you had to prioritize and emphasize micro mobility, flow, vehicle, pedestrian, and delineate these various pieces on 02:03:13
the street somehow so that everybody can participate together. 02:03:18
And that'll be the opportunity for. 02:03:24
You know to actually evaluate that design and ensure that it works, but we put the requirement. 02:03:26
To. 02:03:30
To hold that as a. 02:03:32
Does that address the concern? 02:03:36
What kind of parking are you thinking on on? 02:03:39
In this area like I don't think it would, it would be like 15 minute loading zone, right? 02:03:43
Potentially depending on if. 02:03:50
Typically in our multi family developments there's like an overhead door that can be pulled up to a freight elevator. So people 02:03:53
are are are moving. There could be something like that, like it's a little area where a moving truck could come. 02:03:58
Access an overhead door if there was one, and get to the freight elevator. 02:04:04
Well, we talked about FedEx delivery. We talked about UPS deliveries. I think opportunities like that could be on here, but they 02:04:08
would be shorter duration parking situations maybe there'd be, you know, we talked about retail. 02:04:13
Maybe even some dining along that central Plaza, right? So you could have some handicapped stalls parked here, but potentially. 02:04:19
Can we clear it? Can we clarify that in this? 02:04:27
To make it so that there's it would be short term parking and handicapped parking. 02:04:31
OK, just so that. 02:04:36
No room for other. Yeah. Loading short term parking or handicapped, Yeah, that would be great. I don't personally have any 02:04:38
concerns with that. 02:04:42
Yeah. 02:04:45
Yeah, it's meant to be open and free flowing. Not a whole bunch of yeah, yeah, we definitely want it to be super awkward to drive 02:04:46
on it, yeah. 02:04:50
Entrances along Major Rd. So this was a request that came up to say. 02:04:57
We don't want to see backs of buildings basically on major roads and I saw today. 02:05:04
The request is to add. 02:05:09
More major roads to 650 and Mill Rd. So we'll take that back internally. 02:05:10
We basically agreed. 02:05:16
That will put at least 40% of the ground floor units that are facing a major Rd. on a residential building to have an entry. 02:05:17
Right, that has some kind of architectural interest in a walkway to connect. 02:05:24
And then the commercial buildings, the primary or secondary entry that faces are within 30 feet of a facade. So the idea there 02:05:28
again is if if there are trails or sidewalks. 02:05:33
You know if the Geneva trail turns and young vineyard connector that you can access that and. 02:05:38
Your insight of. 02:05:45
And be able to access the Main Street there. 02:05:48
And again, those would be for buildings that kind of have a substantial presence. I put 150 feet facing a major Rd. 02:05:53
And you said that little exhibit might be ready for the City Council meeting next week that you made as far as the sidelines. 02:06:02
I'm yeah, OK. Yep, Yep. I will follow up on that and. 02:06:08
Make sure we have it. We hope to have it today, but it wasn't quite ready. 02:06:12
And so those are the ones in blue that I highlighted and I have addressed that I thought needed some time. Does anybody have 02:06:18
anything else you'd like to bring up? 02:06:22
I just I'm trying to for the the clarification on the A&E. 02:06:33
Five stories or 75 feet, whichever is greater, whichever is. 02:06:41
Oh yeah, just just the clarity on that one. 02:06:47
A typical five story building that you'd be proposing. What? What would? 02:06:52
I'd be. I believe the zoning requires this to have a 14 or 15 foot ground floor and so and you know 12 to 14 feet above that if it 02:06:56
was a commercial building or whatever. Sometimes we do 15 feet clear. 02:07:02
So yeah, 5 * 1575. 02:07:09
I don't think we're gonna be over 75 feet on the five story build. 02:07:13
So that kind of synonymous here, but you're saying just for clarity's sake, yeah, whichever's greater. 02:07:18
And then a couple of. 02:07:30
Questions I had as far as percentage of commercial to residential. 02:07:32
Have you guys considered a percentage, adding a percentage making that? 02:07:38
So right now, it's 50% of the ground floor, but I'm talking like an overall percentage of both. Have you guys considered that? 02:07:44
Have you thought about that? I know it's been brought up with us and with the City Council and #32 on this, there was a request 02:07:50
for 50%. 02:07:55
Yeah. Residency does not be more than 50% and we just like. 02:08:06
We're kind of at 33 right now. 02:08:11
To invest what we're investing for, you know, 17%. 02:08:13
That's not viable. 02:08:17
Would you be? 02:08:21
To put 33 as a minimum. 02:08:23
33% commercial minimum like put that in the in the development. 02:08:25
Are you are you looking for like a number? Like yeah, I would like, I would like to see a number so that. 02:08:30
I I mean so for instance, no more than 66% of the. 02:08:35
Total square footage of the development could be residential, correct? 02:08:40
Once fully built out or yeah, one fully built out and then the next thing I was going to add was I know it was somewhere I'm 02:08:46
trying, I was trying to find it again, that there has to be a certain amount of commercial built out at certain phases. 02:08:52
And. 02:09:31
Did you, did you find that this is the slide that was before there's been one change and so we said 50%. 02:09:34
During development, it can't be less than 20% on the ground floor. And then we originally asked for initial phase of three acres 02:09:41
of 300 units without commercial. It's since negotiated and I think it's a #30 square feet per year. 02:09:49
Development that's 9000 square feet of commercial that would have to be delivered along with that initial phase, so. 02:09:58
So that's the idea. And then again those dashed lines that are required commercial ground floor, so on both sides of the street 02:10:04
there. 02:10:08
So yeah, that looked that looks good and the 50% ground level looks good. I just like to also have a percent as the overall. 02:10:13
Yeah, I don't know what I'm to make that call here, but. 02:10:27
If we can make it as a as a comment that needs to be addressed in your recommendation or however the right way to deal with that 02:10:31
is, yeah, I mean if they put it in their recommendation then then that's something that we can just consider with the the City 02:10:38
Council. So I mean obviously it it provides that that ability for you to, you know fine tune it with the City Council. 02:10:44
OK. 02:10:54
Did you guys have any? 02:11:03
Additional questions. 02:11:05
How? 02:11:10
I don't have anything substantive other than I appreciate the effort that you've made to put it into a table that talks about how 02:11:12
except you're being considered still. So I guess with. 02:11:17
The City Council stuff moving forward, I guess the idea would be to add additional clarification. 02:11:24
Does that make sense? Yeah, the ones I'm I'm thinking of would be. 02:11:30
Yeah, clarity on that shared St. the loading short term handicap. 02:11:37
I've got, I've got the conditions right now more than 66%. 02:11:44
Yeah, yeah. I wouldn't mind seeing that. And then the other one I was thinking of is with the parking personally, I would be 02:11:49
comfortable making recommendation to. 02:11:53
Go the stricter route on that and then see where details are ironed out. But. 02:11:58
Those are the key ones. And then start Morgan. 02:12:04
So everyone's gonna allow for public comment since I told everybody. 02:12:08
They couldn't see anything on the agenda. 02:12:13
If alright, sorry, not yes. 02:12:17
So if anybody has any. 02:12:19
Comments. It's not going to. 02:12:23
We're not opening up a public hearing again, just real quick. If you have any comments, please limit them. 02:12:27
To two minutes. 02:12:34
Yeah, if any of you guys have any comments come? 02:12:38
Oh, sorry. 02:12:51
Daria Evans, the new resident. 02:12:57
I just have a question about the hotel par. 02:12:59
Is that going to be shared with the, with the residential? 02:13:04
Or is it going to be its own entity in it of itself? And how are you going to regulate that parking so you don't get infiltrators? 02:13:08
For that parking at the. 02:13:17
And. 02:13:20
What kind of improvements will the developer make? 02:13:22
For roadways. 02:13:26
Deal with. 02:13:31
Traffic. Those are my questions. 02:13:34
So as far as the public streets at 800 N Mill Road and that was the develop. 02:13:37
Their hands are tied with that. That's just on the city, that if there are improvements that need to be made, the city needs to 02:13:45
make those improvements. 02:13:48
We did do a reimbursement in the project first started on the the 650 N to that another project that they they upfront it in the 02:13:53
city did reimbursement afterwards. 02:13:58
And then as far as hotel parking, I guess I could let you guys answer this, but it depends on the hotel and how they decide to 02:14:06
manage their parking. 02:14:09
I would. 02:14:13
If I may just on the the intersections, we will pay substantial impact fees which will ultimately be used for traffic upgrades, 02:14:16
and that's one of the ways that you'll the city will have funds to be able to upgrade intersections. 02:14:22
Yeah, hotel parking, I'll just emphasize again, that's a conceptual layout. Yeah, if the hotel goes there and that's where the 02:14:29
parking went. 02:14:32
It would be part of the parking management plan. That Block is considered all commercial right now. And so again commercial and 02:14:36
hotels work kind of like residential hotels, heavy use at night, an office building or other commercial uses are often heavy 02:14:43
during the day. And so they'll just work together and then there should be plenty of access parking there, we have said I think. 02:14:49
If there's capacity and there's events or there's overflow, you know we'll work to be able to replace that garage there. 02:14:56
Potentially along that theater to help with the city's issues, despite what I said before, we don't want to be responsible for it, 02:15:03
but we do want to be a part of a solution. So yeah, great. Thank you. 02:15:08
Any other? 02:15:15
Russell Evans, Vineyard residents. 02:15:23
I just counted up. 02:15:27
Condos in the preserve. 02:15:30
And there's 40 buildings, 10 units per building. That's four. 02:15:33
And things massive. So this that just gives you an idea of what they're asking for 1500. It's a little under, a little under 4 02:15:36
preserves for the condo portion of the town hall portion. 02:15:41
So just that's a lot. Got something for Dakota Pacific to consider with parking. I like the back and forth on this parking. I 02:15:47
really did show some real consideration. 02:15:52
On it and challenges, but I like the idea of reevaluating it after the first part or whatever seeing. 02:15:59
Consider for the. 02:16:08
Over. 02:16:10
Then your problem is solved that you brought up Anthony that. 02:16:12
What happened? Or once I'm not sure. Your name leader here. 02:16:18
You know where? 02:16:23
Well, you've got 500. You know, Worst case scenario you need 500 bucks. 02:16:25
Build something in to. 02:16:30
And then on the reevaluation go down if you, if you. 02:16:33
But of course I I believe you'll probably stay there. I I've been saying that just on that what we've seen here in. 02:16:37
But I know it's a little more running up. 02:16:43
But it could solve some problems downloading. 02:16:45
And it could go down if the study the revolution show that this something considered. 02:16:49
And those. 02:16:55
My comment, one other question, we're talking about the development agreement. What's the legal ramifications of this? Is that a 02:16:58
contract? 02:17:01
Is it just a handshake? Is it? I mean, I'm just, I don't understand what what the agreement. Yeah. So yes, all of this is laid out 02:17:06
in the agreement. So if you go to the staff report, you'll see that agreement attached. And then what happens is Planning 02:17:12
Commission makes a recommendation, goes to the City Council. If they approve it, then it ultimately gives the mayor the the 02:17:18
authority to to sign the agreement. 02:17:24
Any other comments? 02:18:08
All right. We'll keep moving forward then. Were there any other comments from the Commission? 02:18:09
Cool. 02:18:19
And I guess real quick question for you, Morgan, before you get into all of the all of those, do you feel like as far as the open 02:19:03
space that they're considering the Paseo and the shared St. and stuff, do you feel like there's enough language in this? 02:19:11
Doesn't seem like parks based. 02:19:23
Oh yeah, yeah. I think they did an excellent job and they they went through, if you look at the agreement and this is their their 02:19:26
proposal, they they added a lot of really specific language. They pulled some things that because they knew we already went to the 02:19:32
downtown, they pulled some some of those requirements that that we already kind of came to consensus on the downtown, so. 02:19:39
I'm saying, I'm saying with. 02:20:42
Shared. 02:20:44
Shall only allow parking for short term users. ADA, parking and loading. They get that right. The three categories you guys have 02:20:47
mentioned? Yeah. Do you think we should define short term? 02:20:51
And you could, you could say 15 minutes or less or I don't know if you had a suggestion, Steve, on. 02:20:58
Yeah. 02:21:07
We say one hour or less or two hours or less. I think the idea is that a lot of that will be 15. 02:21:07
The intention would be long enough to load or unload, yeah, correct. 02:21:46
So I mean if it's like. 02:21:52
Supply someone doing the restaurant. Maybe they park in a parking garage or a different St. Yeah, but if they want to if there's. 02:21:55
A retail store they want to run and grab something and say 10 minutes. 02:22:03
So should we attach the time to it? 02:22:15
Yeah, it's up to you. 02:22:20
If so, if it's like 15 minutes, it's not going to be for a restaurant. Yes, it might be someone to order your sandwich and going, 02:22:22
but. 02:22:26
But is this like restaurant supplies unloading loading zones too? Was that also the intention of? 02:22:31
That road. 02:22:40
So perhaps some of those stalls are specifically for deliveries and that would mitigate? 02:22:43
The need for time limit. 02:22:56
Yeah, and I think that's what the load loading language. 02:22:59
So for loading, I mean they could be parked longer, so maybe for short term we'd say 15 minutes short term parking. 02:23:04
Or 30. 02:23:10
Yeah, I mean, obviously more details are going to be hashed out next week. 02:23:13
Well, so I. 02:23:22
So if you put it like that, then I mean we can if you guys want to dive down a little bit. 02:23:26
OK, Yep, Parking loading Mill Road and 650 N shall be added as major roads in the agreement. And lastly a full build out the 02:23:39
project, So full build out of the project residential square, so they shall not exceed 66% of the entire project. 02:23:47
Great. And then just real quick with parking on the very last one, say they have the very last development going in that's 02:23:57
residential. 02:24:02
And. 02:24:10
For some reason they under park it or I guess the other. All the other units never mind. 02:24:13
All the other units with the studies. 02:24:18
Are going to cover that we're. 02:24:20
Never mind. Do you need to add the 75 foot thing or did you, did we clarify that like 75 feet or less for five story building or 02:24:22
Yeah, I'm not totally concerned if we wanted more clarity there. OK, I think that helps. I mean you can say five stories or 75 02:24:28
feet and it's, I mean as it's written right now, it'd just be whatever is greater. I mean because if you don't clarify then the 02:24:35
benefit always goes to the property owner, OK. 02:24:41
OK. So if you're OK with with the other, I mean I don't think you're going to get A5 story that's much, much higher than 75 and. 02:24:48
I'm good with that. I'd be a really sweet penthouse or something at the top, but I don't know. That would be extraordinary. 02:24:56
OK. 02:25:06
So if you make them so if you you can make that first motion and you can say as stated in the record. 02:25:09
Or you can read it if. 02:25:19
Well, I am ready to make a motion, but I also want to reiterate that. 02:25:26
Sometimes I feel like we all feel like we have to think exactly the same, but there's five of us up here for a reason. So if you 02:25:30
have other amendments or. 02:25:34
Do not agree. 02:25:38
Then don't say that you agree? No, that's what I would say. I don't. I don't want, I don't want anyone to feel like they've got a 02:25:39
dirt, Grayden told me. He just wants a restaurant with chicken. Right, Some good chicken. Every time I've gone out to eat, what's 02:25:45
great and he just orders the pile of chicken. He's like, I just want a pile of chicken. 02:25:50
Yeah, yeah. I just wanted to make that protein comments. So there are a couple of comments I just want to make before anybody 02:25:58
makes a motion. And that's the main issues that I have with the development are. 02:26:04
Issues that are out of their hands technically. 02:26:12
The rail line not being removed yet, which means 650 N isn't accessible. 800 N not being expanded with paint or with more lanes. 02:26:15
Center St. 02:26:20
Bottlenecking. 02:26:26
One lane and then back into two lanes. 02:26:27
And they're not being a sidewalk for people to walk to the transit station. 02:26:30
Those are major concerns of mine and whether or not. 02:26:36
This gets rezoned if they decide to stick with the current zoning that is in place. Those are issues that are still going to be 02:26:40
there. 02:26:44
And so as they've talked about with their traffic. 02:26:48
It would be less traffic. 02:26:53
Those concerns are going to be there no matter what. 02:26:58
If we had the power to be like, oh, we don't want stuff to go in there until those concerns are addressed like we would, we would 02:27:01
make those decisions. 02:27:06
But they're currently zoned to. 02:27:11
Like 1,000,000 square feet of office space if they wanted to or if they could. 02:27:16
And and on top of that million square feet, they could put in 500,000 square feet of residential. 02:27:21
And. 02:27:28
That could happen right now with with us denying this and the City Council denying this, that could still happen. 02:27:29
So. 02:27:37
We're trying to find a solution of. 02:27:38
What what can we zone that can help them move forward? What can we zone that we think we could benefit based more than the current 02:27:41
zoning that's there? 02:27:46
And so. 02:27:53
Those those things were some of my concerns. Parking is a major concern for everybody in the city and as we talked about here. 02:27:54
I think going with a parking plan and adjusting it as it goes, I don't think that there's a better solution for parking. Even if 02:28:04
we didn't have a minimum requirement for parking for them, they would. They would. They're very incentivized to do the right 02:28:10
amount of parking because they get dinged if they don't, and it's very difficult as a developer to. 02:28:16
Sell a piece of land to somebody else if it's got this requirement of you need to add X amount of parking spots. So it's very 02:28:23
important that they get it right parking. That was my other concern with this development. 02:28:29
Couple other things open space they. 02:28:37
The city needs open space over there and really any open space that we can get is a benefit for the city. They are giving an acre, 02:28:42
which doesn't seem like very much to the city, but they're. 02:28:47
That's something that they're giving the city that they're not required to do. 02:28:54
They meet the minimums for that parking for park space. 02:28:58
And whether the zoning is changed now or not changed with this development agreement? 02:29:01
They they will meet the open space. 02:29:07
And then the city when we made this agreement with them for zoning, it was 2 to one commercial to residential. And I know that all 02:29:13
of us would like to see more commercial, we would like to see more office space, we would like to see more of these, more of these 02:29:18
things. 02:29:23
They've been here for what, 10 years now? Almost. 02:29:28
And have been having a hard time finding office tenants. 02:29:33
Um. 02:29:38
And while it's hard to think like, oh, we don't want, a lot of we don't want. 02:29:39
More high density. 02:29:44
What what we're really saying is we don't want more traffic. 02:29:47
If density happened. 02:29:52
And they handle their parking and everything, right? Like, I don't think a concern of density is a concern for very many people. 02:29:56
The more people we get in the city, the more of a chance we have for different restaurants or a grocery store. 02:30:05
And I would love like your comment earlier, Wendy, if the city could build a grocery store 100% like I'd be on board for that. But 02:30:12
we don't own the land. We don't own the land. 02:30:18
We. 02:30:24
Tell a grocery store to come or we absolutely would. 02:30:25
Developers owned the land, and grocery stores decide if it's viable for them to come. 02:30:30
And if it is, they'll come. If it's not, they won't. And in our current situation, the way we're stuck between 9:15 and the lake, 02:30:36
it's been real hard for developers. 02:30:41
To find grocery stores, even with incentives from the city. So the city's working on it. Developers want to sell their land. 02:30:47
They're working on it. 02:30:51
It's just a matter of time. Do we have enough people here that the grocery stores like, oh, we want to put a grocery store there? 02:30:56
Sorry, I can't, I can't take any more comments right now. 02:31:07
And. 02:31:11
So. 02:31:18
Sorry, there's more than that. There was a yeah, the mayor knows more than us. There was a public comment about the mayor saying 02:31:20
that there's a grocery store and as far as I'm aware, that's in the downtown area, not in this area. 02:31:25
That's correct. Yeah. 02:31:33
Different area. 02:31:34
And. 02:31:37
As far as the units, I I still have an issue with there not being units for sale. I would absolutely love if you guys could make 02:31:40
that happen. 02:31:44
Umm. 02:31:49
I understand that it's hard. 02:31:50
Investment is risk, but I understand. 02:31:53
With that, but also with units being for rent, it's a lot easier for the developer. 02:31:59
Regulate who? 02:32:07
There won't be units with six units because. 02:32:10
That'll be people breaking their contracts. Well, it takes out the the investors buying one unit, packing it. So it takes that 02:32:14
incentive. It takes that incentive away from it. So there are benefits to that. Those are my concerns, the developer. 02:32:21
Addressed. 02:32:30
Addressed all of them. 02:32:32
And I think with. 02:32:35
Parking. With the parking plan especially. 02:32:38
I think that that we can make this work. 02:32:43
So that's what I had to say if anybody wants to make a motion or. 02:32:45
And there's no other comments. I'd be happy to make a motion. 02:32:53
I motion to recommend approval of Resolution 20/23/02 for the forged development agreement. 02:32:57
To the City Council with the modifications stated by staff. 02:33:02
Do I have a second? A second. All right, this is roll call. Craig Anthony Bryce, I Tay Graydon. All right, passes. Thank you, 02:33:06
guys. 02:33:13
All right. Moving into. 02:33:21
Do you want to push up? 02:33:24
When we do get to it, it's a really good movie. I'm sure you want to watch it, but we we want to free you as well. Yeah, I make a 02:33:29
motion to continue to move a training session 5.1 to the next meeting. 02:33:36
All in favor. 02:33:43
All right. Moving on to Commission member reports and ex parte discussion and disclosure. 02:33:45
Nothing from him. 02:33:53
Sorry you guys, if you're if you're going to talk, could you please go outside so that our microphones don't catch on? 02:33:56
Everybody just move out, yeah. It's just so that we don't get feedback in the microphones. 02:34:04
All right. Nothing on mine. 02:34:17
Anything. No, no. Welcome great into being up here. 02:34:19
Yeah, Anything from staff I do. Before you ask me about it, I was gonna ask you about it. I I did go to USPS. I spoke with one of 02:34:25
the supervisors there and this was today, actually. 02:34:31
He. 02:34:37
They got my message from last time that they have identified 2 drop boxes. 02:34:39
In West Arm that are being underutilized and they have begun a month long process. 02:34:44
It promised me that he'd move it, but a month long process of reevaluating if they could move it to Vineyard, they'd probably put 02:34:52
it here at City Hall. Oh perfect. And as he he seemed, he said it seems like it would work out great, that the carrier could just 02:34:58
pick up, you know, while they they drop off them out here. So it seems like we're going in the right direction. They were aware of 02:35:03
of our situation and they're working on it. Awesome. Thank you so much. 02:35:09
That would be good too. 02:35:17
Yeah, cool. Anything else from staff? 02:35:20
So we obviously have a budget for training and so we have a fairly healthy budget. So if you find any training that that you're 02:35:27
interested in through something from like urban design, engineering planning. 02:35:33
Well, let us know. Bike Utah is May May 31st. That that's an excellent one. 02:35:48
Vernal planning conference and that that's one of those. If you go you want to do the multi day, we're happy to get you a hotel 02:35:55
room and pay for your food and that kind of stuff. So just let us know or we've got a budget. So I mean we probably can't send you 02:36:02
to Hawaii APA but we can send you that Utah APA. Also we are required to have a certain amount of training hours so if if you can 02:36:08
make it to meetings like that it helps fill your training hours a lot. So cool. If there's nothing else from staff crosswalks are 02:36:14
being installed on Center St. 02:36:21
So. 02:36:27
Connection and last week we got to like break windows of the old building. We have throw rocks through the old. 02:36:33
That was fun. Herald Off is gone. 02:36:38
If there's nothing else, then meeting adjourned. 02:36:47
Play. 02:37:02
