| That's cool to follow along and figure it out here. Was there anybody else in the other meeting that's coming over? I guess Tim is | 00:00:02 | |
| on his way. Yeah, I think we, I think, yeah, we got OK. | 00:00:08 | |
| Yes, sorry about that. | 00:00:14 | |
| Yeah, that's one I kept getting. | 00:00:20 | |
| And I thought I was. I was there too, so I could just say yeah to everything. | 00:00:23 | |
| It's all been approved, I guess, but I think I think we have enough people if we want to get started. We got party. Let's make | 00:00:29 | |
| sure we have. Yeah, good. We got Sean as well. | 00:00:34 | |
| And Jessica? | 00:00:40 | |
| Since it was up for, I think we're. | 00:00:44 | |
| All right, let's start then. Welcome everybody to the Vineyard Planning Commission meeting. It's February 17th. Due to COVID, I | 00:00:49 | |
| have a written determination that I need to read. I, Bryce Brady, as the Chair of the Vineyard Planning Commission, do hereby find | 00:00:56 | |
| and declare as follows. 1 due to the emergency conditions which currently exist in the state of Utah and specifically Nantah | 00:01:04 | |
| County and Vineyard City as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent surge in COVID-19. | 00:01:11 | |
| Infections across the State of Utah County. The holding of public meetings with an anchor location is defined in the Utah Open and | 00:01:18 | |
| Public Meetings Act presents a substantial risk to the health and safety of those who may be present at any location. And two, the | 00:01:25 | |
| risks to those who may be present at an anchor location can be substantially mitigated by holding public meetings of the Planning | 00:01:32 | |
| Commission pursuant to electronic needs that allow for public participation via virtual needs. | 00:01:39 | |
| And three, the City has the means and ability to allow virtual participation in the public meetings in accordance with the Utah | 00:01:46 | |
| Open and Public Meetings Act. NOW, therefore, based upon the foregoing, for 30 days from the date of this order, meetings of the | 00:01:53 | |
| Vineyard Planning Commission shall be conducted by virtual needs without an anchor location. | 00:01:59 | |
| All right, Can I? Sorry, I didn't ask, but can I have a volunteer either give the opening prayer Pledge of Allegiance? | 00:02:07 | |
| The Planning Commission. | 00:02:15 | |
| I'd be happy to give an invocation. All right. Thank you, Tim. All right. | 00:02:20 | |
| Our Father in heaven, we're very thankful this evening for this opportunity that we have to come together through the use of this | 00:02:26 | |
| technology. We're grateful for this community in which we live, for the state and the country in which we live. We're thankful for | 00:02:33 | |
| the freedoms that we enjoy. We're grateful now to be able to meet for a few moments this evening and deliberate on issues relative | 00:02:41 | |
| to our community and its growth. We pray for thy blessings to be with us as we consider the things being presented and that we. | 00:02:48 | |
| Make decisions that are best in the interest of those that we represent in this community. We are grateful for those who lead us | 00:02:55 | |
| in this state and nation and pray for them. We pray for unity in our country and all that we do. We are grateful for, again, our | 00:03:02 | |
| health and strength during these difficult times. And we're grateful for the moisture that we receive. And these things we humbly | 00:03:09 | |
| pray and thank you for in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. Amen. | 00:03:16 | |
| Amen. Thank you so much, Tim. Just check real quick and make sure nobody else has jumped on here. | 00:03:23 | |
| All right, So the sitting members of tonight's meeting are me, Bryce, Brady, Anthony, Tim and Jessica. As we go throughout the | 00:03:30 | |
| things, if we have anything that I don't think we have to do. | 00:03:36 | |
| Oh no, we do. So we'll do a roll call for all of our all the things that we're approving. | 00:03:44 | |
| Yeah, I don't think we had any minutes for approval. | 00:03:51 | |
| Before we get into the business for for two of the people that are on the call tonight, Sullivan for his birthday finally got to | 00:03:57 | |
| 40. And for Don Overson, I hope you enjoy your 50th anniversary like I did last year. | 00:04:04 | |
| Yeah, you're listening. | 00:04:14 | |
| That sounds awesome. All right. Thanks, Tim. I'm sorry. My video is being weird right now, trying a new thing. Apparently it's not | 00:04:16 | |
| working, so apologies for that. Right now, we'll go to an open session. The open session is for members of the public to make any | 00:04:24 | |
| comments that don't have to do with the business items. So do I have a motion to open the open session? | 00:04:31 | |
| I'll make a motion to open the open session. I'll second it. All right, thank you. And just all in favor, aye, All right, right | 00:04:41 | |
| now is open session. Please raise your hand or make a comment in the chat if you have something. | 00:04:48 | |
| Yeah, we're, we're not seeing anyone. All right. OK. Do I have a motion to close the open session? | 00:05:02 | |
| I make a motion to close the open session. | 00:05:11 | |
| 2nd. | 00:05:15 | |
| 2nd that. All right. Thank you. So that was again with the motion and Anthony and 2nd All right, so let's just move into business | 00:05:16 | |
| items. Morgan, are you? | 00:05:21 | |
| All right. Yes, Sir. | 00:05:26 | |
| Surprise. | 00:05:30 | |
| There, Yeah, I'm trading an echo just one second. | 00:05:31 | |
| Hey, Morgan, you're you're good to go whenever I just want to say I feel honored want to spend his birthday with us and Don it's | 00:05:39 | |
| 15th year anniversary wants to spend with the Planning Commission. That's that's an honor. We appreciate that. | 00:05:47 | |
| One second, go find that conference room. | 00:05:57 | |
| All right, all right. There should be less feedback here. So once again we apologize for the the screw up. We'll try not to have | 00:06:10 | |
| that out again. Somehow the last agenda's link got thrown on this agenda. So we have Sean Hilton with Central Utah Water here to | 00:06:18 | |
| talk about the conditional use permit for well size 17 and I will show share my screen so we can look at the construction plan. | 00:06:27 | |
| So give me a thumbs up if you can see this. | 00:06:37 | |
| You can see it. You guys are good. Thank you. All right, so yeah, so here is the site. This property is zoned regional mixed-use | 00:06:40 | |
| commercial which. | 00:06:45 | |
| With Public Utilities as a conditional use permit, so conditional instruments fall under the Planning Commission's scope of review | 00:06:53 | |
| and approval and provides the ability for the Planning Commission to apply conditions to help mitigate against detrimental effects | 00:06:59 | |
| to to adjacent neighbors. | 00:07:05 | |
| This is a very similar. | 00:07:12 | |
| John can clarify some of this, but from what I've looked at this would be very similar to what was built by the Alloy and the | 00:07:16 | |
| Concorde. A 40 foot screening wall to provide some sound. | 00:07:22 | |
| Barrier to the residents is going to be employed and this is on the backside of the Edgewater Townhomes development off of Geneva | 00:07:31 | |
| Road, 349 N Geneva Rd. | 00:07:37 | |
| Rundown to the to the site plan the construction plan. So the construction plan shows you the approximate well, site and. | 00:07:43 | |
| In the green and then the construction wall outlined with the the blackboard line on the north-south and West side of the project | 00:07:57 | |
| area. | 00:08:01 | |
| And so allow Sean to get into some of the the details with you so that I believe this is the. | 00:08:07 | |
| Third well site that we have in the city next to residential. So there's there's several well sites, but I believe this is the | 00:08:15 | |
| third one we've done that next residential in the past, social detailed water has been really great to to work with and they | 00:08:21 | |
| typically have stayed on top of the, you know, working with residents and so many Sean, as you provide kind of the detail of that | 00:08:28 | |
| construction process you're going to go through, if you could also explain. | 00:08:34 | |
| To the Planning Commission, maybe some of the public outreach efforts that you guys are going to employ? | 00:08:41 | |
| And during the last night, so you guys had a website and there was a few things that you had provided to, to give residents | 00:08:47 | |
| resources to contact you if they're, if there were issues. So if you found any further view, if you want to maybe just jump in | 00:08:53 | |
| there, explain the construction process, timeline impact, and then you know some of the resources that the public may have to, to | 00:08:59 | |
| contact you guys. | 00:09:04 | |
| Sure, you should be able to. Unless Brian needs to take you off mute. Yeah, you should be able to to jump right in. | 00:09:17 | |
| How's that? Can you hear me now? | 00:09:36 | |
| Yeah, perfect. | 00:09:39 | |
| Thank you, Morgan. Appreciate it. Morgan's been and Brian have been great to work with. So you guys got great planners. | 00:09:41 | |
| So as far as construction timeline, we're going to be drilling our well site both 16 and 17 at the same time 16 is. | 00:09:51 | |
| Quite a bit further north than here and it doesn't necessarily require a conditional use permit. That's why we're only talking | 00:10:04 | |
| about 17 here. But it's construction is going to be happening simultaneously at the at both well sites and so the the timeline | 00:10:09 | |
| that's given. | 00:10:15 | |
| There and you guys have staff report that your time frame from March 21 to March 22 is in regards to both both those well sites. | 00:10:22 | |
| We plan on starting here at well, Seventeen first and getting that. | 00:10:34 | |
| Drilled first and then moving to our site further north and and getting that constructed afterwards, so. | 00:10:41 | |
| As far as actual drilling of the well, it's anticipated that we'll be drilling. | 00:10:50 | |
| Probably about two to three months, and that consists of a big old. | 00:10:58 | |
| Well, drill rig and once that gets set up and started, that's a 24 hour operation. | 00:11:05 | |
| They'll have multiple crews coming in and out, rotating and ensuring that that drill rig is going 24 hours a day. And that's the | 00:11:13 | |
| whole reason for those 40 foot sound walls is to help mitigate. | 00:11:19 | |
| That that noise to the neighbors and like Morgan said, we're just finishing up wells 8-9 and 10 just a little bit further West of | 00:11:26 | |
| here that are. | 00:11:31 | |
| I mean well, Site 8 sits right in the middle of the apartment complex. | 00:11:37 | |
| I think that's the Concord. Maybe it's just north of the Concorde. | 00:11:43 | |
| But it's sitting right in the middle of an apartment complex and. | 00:11:48 | |
| Those sandwalls do a pretty good job at mitigating the noise. We do have a full time public involvement consultant on the project. | 00:11:52 | |
| Corox Engineers is our public involvement. They were. | 00:11:59 | |
| Our public involvement consultants for 8-9 and ten and they'll be on the project here for 1617 as well. | 00:12:07 | |
| So yeah, that that gives you a pretty good gist of what we've done in the past and. | 00:12:18 | |
| What we're here to. | 00:12:25 | |
| Present to you guys tonight, Sean, could you maybe provide a little information if like a resident or planning commissioner wants | 00:12:28 | |
| to, you know, reach out if there's an issue during construction? What are you guys gonna do? Like an educational campaign or | 00:12:36 | |
| something that like maybe sends mailers out or how do you inform the public? Yeah, I mean, we'll, we'll have our public | 00:12:43 | |
| involvement group does a pretty good job at having a website up throughout the project and then they'll do. | 00:12:50 | |
| Door hangers as well to keep them notified of different. | 00:12:59 | |
| Major construction activities, certainly before we start drilling, will. | 00:13:05 | |
| We'll certainly try to communicate as best we can with the neighbors to give them a heads up of the activities that we'll be doing | 00:13:11 | |
| there, so. | 00:13:15 | |
| Morgan, just maybe a question for Sean. | 00:13:21 | |
| Well, most of the equipment to enter in on a regular basis from Geneva roadside. | 00:13:25 | |
| Correct, Yeah, that'll be their primary access as the sound wall is going to be going across the north side of the site there. | 00:13:31 | |
| They won't really be able to have that access from 4th N they'll be accessing from Geneva Rd. | 00:13:37 | |
| And then in terms of noise, I know it's hard to classify noise, but compared to pylon pounding as an example, how is the noise of | 00:13:45 | |
| drilling? | 00:13:50 | |
| You know, that's a that's a good question. | 00:13:57 | |
| I don't imagine it's quite as intrusive as pylon, just pylon. My understanding with pylon you're kind of thumping and so not only | 00:14:03 | |
| is there noise, but there's quite a bit of vibration to it. | 00:14:09 | |
| Here with the drill rig, I mean they'll be drilling down. So there there won't be as much vibration. | 00:14:17 | |
| Happening around around there, but there will be, I mean. | 00:14:24 | |
| We put up 40 foot sound walls for for a reason, not only noise, but it's going to be lit up on the inside as well. So it's helped | 00:14:29 | |
| to mitigate the light as well, so. | 00:14:34 | |
| And also the alloy have been lucky enough to have the pylon pounding and well numbered time so. | 00:14:41 | |
| The wells weren't as as noisy as the pylon founding at least, so I guess to go there there will be pile on pounding to get get | 00:14:49 | |
| those footage let's sound walls up. There will be some pylons that need to be pounded in, but that'll be minimal in comparison to | 00:14:57 | |
| the actual wealth drilling. The well drilling is the one that will take about two to three months. | 00:15:05 | |
| They can get those sound walls put up fairly quickly. So yes, good point, Anthony on on that. And Anthony, we did receive some | 00:15:14 | |
| complaints during the, the, the the last drill sites. But, you know, I, I think that Central Utah water does a really good job at | 00:15:22 | |
| at, you know, trying to accommodate residents and in talking to show it sounds like. | 00:15:30 | |
| The drilling is best if it's just, if it runs 24/7. Isn't it kind of the idea that Sean, once you start, you just keep going | 00:15:39 | |
| until. So the idea is you get it done instead of dragging out the construction process. And so, you know, two to three months, I | 00:15:44 | |
| mean. | 00:15:48 | |
| Yeah. I mean, not only that, but we really can't with how big these wells are. These are these are massive production wells that | 00:15:54 | |
| serve. | 00:15:58 | |
| Vineyard, you guys will be getting a lot of your water from, from these wells and then they they go further north and out West | 00:16:05 | |
| Eagle Mountain, Saratoga and so forth and so forth. The the size of these wells really doesn't lead to if we if we have to shut | 00:16:11 | |
| down then. | 00:16:17 | |
| That well has a very high probability of collapsing on itself and so that's why once we start, it's a 24 hour operation until we | 00:16:24 | |
| we get it finished and and done. | 00:16:31 | |
| Morgan, the demography of the apartments right there. | 00:16:42 | |
| Umm that that this construction will back up to? Any idea on children, babies? I mean, do we know anything about the the | 00:16:47 | |
| population of the proximity of the of the apartments? | 00:16:53 | |
| More, more the assumptions and and that's, that's generally with kind of our higher density that's been found that they have a lot | 00:17:02 | |
| of students, a lot of young professionals. There are small families. So most likely you will have some, some kids in there. | 00:17:07 | |
| Typically you get more children in single family detached neighborhoods than you will in in town developments, but you still have | 00:17:12 | |
| them. I've seen quite a few kids in there. | 00:17:18 | |
| And obviously you're gonna get a cross section. There's probably some senior citizens in there as well, but most of the bulk of | 00:17:24 | |
| the population are going to be students and young professionals or small families. And that's an assumption. the US Census doesn't | 00:17:30 | |
| drill down that far. This is a lot of us meeting with HO as and just code enforcement actually reveals quite a bit about a make up | 00:17:36 | |
| of the population too. So we've been able to. | 00:17:42 | |
| Save a lot of students so there is an active HOA there so. | 00:17:49 | |
| Sean, you probably, I mean you already know this, but you'd want to be posting things in their clubhouse and working with the HOA | 00:17:55 | |
| as well. So they publicize it as well. Absolutely. Yep. | 00:18:00 | |
| Sean, could you maybe e-mail us later contact information to your whoever your public outreach person is if we if we get | 00:18:08 | |
| complaints or we get questions and it might be better just to send them directly to the source? Absolutely. | 00:18:15 | |
| And then? | 00:18:24 | |
| Commissioners, we do have a proposed motion. | 00:18:26 | |
| With a, with a, with a condition, basically the condition is at a site plan and building permit would be required prior to a | 00:18:32 | |
| vertical construction. So they they will come forward with a well house that you've seen kind of in the Alloy and Concord have | 00:18:38 | |
| most likely and correct me if I'm wrong John, but I think this is the same kind of brick design. My understanding would be | 00:18:44 | |
| consistent with that. So that would require the site plan approval, but this allows them to get the construction process underway | 00:18:50 | |
| and then. | 00:18:56 | |
| The drill, the drilling is complete in the wells installed and I believe they would install the constructor well house. | 00:19:02 | |
| Yeah, total, total well construction timeline is about a year. So we'll be there on this side 17 and then are are well sixteen | 00:19:09 | |
| side for about a year drilling the wells and developing them and then. | 00:19:17 | |
| Constructing the well houses will start about the March, April time frame of 2022 and that'll take about another years worth of | 00:19:25 | |
| construction tanking to get well houses constructed on those two sites. | 00:19:32 | |
| Sean, I just put a link to the the project the the wells@vineyard.com that that had been used before. Is that also going to be | 00:19:41 | |
| updated and used for this project or is it separate? | 00:19:46 | |
| You know, that's a good question. I imagine we'll utilize this same site. | 00:19:54 | |
| That's it is all part in the well that Vineyard consists of. | 00:20:00 | |
| We we ultimately have. | 00:20:06 | |
| I think 15 well sized, we drilled things so far. These are the additional 2 that we're going to be drilling. So we'll be up to 10 | 00:20:09 | |
| at that point and there's. | 00:20:14 | |
| There's a few other well sites that we have. | 00:20:19 | |
| Umm that have the option or potential of. | 00:20:22 | |
| Of drilling wells on them as well. So I think we have been utilizing this this website. | 00:20:28 | |
| OK. I just know it was helpful for residents around me during 8-9 and 10 construction. | 00:20:35 | |
| Thank you, Anthony. Any other comments from the? | 00:20:45 | |
| Commissioners, Jessica, you have anything to add? | 00:20:49 | |
| Yep. All right, cool. There's somebody wants to make a motion. I just really quick and I apologize if I missed this. This is a | 00:20:54 | |
| public hearing as a conditional use. So you would need to open it if you haven't already and then close the public hearing prior | 00:21:01 | |
| to the motion. All right, Do I have a motion? I'll make a motion to open public hearing. Thanks, Anthony. I have a second. | 00:21:08 | |
| I second it. Thank you, Tim. | 00:21:17 | |
| So any comments from the public about? | 00:21:22 | |
| Doesn't sound like it. Do I have a motion to close the public hearing? | 00:21:30 | |
| Can I make a motion to close the public hearing? Thanks, Anthony. A second, I'll second. All right. Thank you, Jessica. All right. | 00:21:36 | |
| So do I have, would somebody like to make a motion? | 00:21:42 | |
| I'll make a motion. | 00:21:50 | |
| I move to approve the conditional use permit for well Site 17 as requested by Sean Hilton with the Central Utah Water Conservancy | 00:21:52 | |
| District with the condition that the site plan and building permit approve goals will be achieved prior to the installational | 00:21:58 | |
| construction. | 00:22:04 | |
| Of above grade elements such as the well house building, landscaping and other site elements. All right, do I have a second? | 00:22:10 | |
| Second all right, thank you Anthony and roll call all in favor Bryce I Anthony I'm. | 00:22:19 | |
| Tim. | 00:22:27 | |
| Jessica All right, that much been passes, we'll move on to item 5.2 E Lake Lot 5 site plan. | 00:22:29 | |
| Thanks, John. Yeah, thank you, Sean. Thank you, guys. Appreciate it. | 00:22:42 | |
| Right. This is my portion. So we've been in conversation for the last, I don't know, four to five, maybe six weeks with Martin | 00:22:51 | |
| Bill Janik who works for Martin Snow. Actually the company that is over this project is officially Vineyard Properties of Utah | 00:22:59 | |
| LLC. | 00:23:06 | |
| And they are requesting a site plan approval and I'd like to walk you guys through a brief presentation or summary of what they're | 00:23:15 | |
| proposing to construct here in our city in the East Lake Industrial area. So I'll just share my screen here. | 00:23:26 | |
| Walk you guys through my presentation. | 00:23:37 | |
| We have, we do have the applicant with us. So at the end of the presentation, I'll open for the comments and questions from from | 00:23:43 | |
| the Planning Commission. But yeah, if we can save those until the very end, that'd be great. | 00:23:50 | |
| OK, so as we stated the the projects called the East link lot 05. | 00:24:03 | |
| And this is just an overview of the project. So the applicant is Reading Properties in Utah, LLC. The address of the site is 71 E | 00:24:10 | |
| 1750 N in the East Lake Industrial Park. | 00:24:17 | |
| Umm, the size is approximately 12.4 or sorry, 39 acres. | 00:24:24 | |
| And they are requesting a site plan approval, but the project is is valued at approximately $9 million and if approved tonight, it | 00:24:31 | |
| would take about 10 months to construct beginning around the end of March or start of April. | 00:24:39 | |
| Here's an aerial view of the project site. So on the left hand side, here we have the Pacific Core Power Plant, and here's 1750 N | 00:24:51 | |
| and Pioneer Lane. | 00:24:56 | |
| The zoning designation that it's in, it's an M district, so the M district is intended for manufacturer and industrial uses. | 00:25:07 | |
| And it would allow for for makes use on this site. | 00:25:14 | |
| And the the applicant. | 00:25:19 | |
| The The site would welcome manufacturing, warehousing. | 00:25:23 | |
| And and and office as the three uses that could go in there potentially. | 00:25:29 | |
| On the landing spot, this area is designated as Vineyard Commerce Center and it's an area intended to increase the production and | 00:25:36 | |
| exchange of goods and services. | 00:25:40 | |
| And. | 00:25:46 | |
| Hey, here's a few more project details. The lot size is approximately 540,000 square feet or 12.39 acres. | 00:25:50 | |
| They're proposing to develop or or construct about 156,000 square feet of of building. | 00:26:00 | |
| That would be divided in the following way. Warehousing 125,000 manufacturing 16,000 square feet and office 15,000 square feet. | 00:26:08 | |
| And this would be across four different buildings, two large ones and then two ancillary ancillary buildings and within those | 00:26:16 | |
| buildings there's a total of 8 visible. | 00:26:24 | |
| Units. | 00:26:33 | |
| And on the backside, on the backside of the two larger buildings, there's 10 docks for transport vehicles and none of the | 00:26:34 | |
| buildings would exceed a height of 36 feet, even though up to 60 feet is allowed. | 00:26:42 | |
| So here's the site plan that has been provided by Mr. Bill Janik. | 00:26:51 | |
| So over here we have the power plant around the perimeter of the site, we have some sensitive area, some wetland areas. To the | 00:26:58 | |
| northeast is Linden City and there's a few buildings constructed already to the right. | 00:27:07 | |
| I can't quite remember exactly what those buildings housed in there, but I think they have some tenants already. That's the | 00:27:17 | |
| furniture that oh, that's like the the. | 00:27:22 | |
| The door, that's a Joe Pilling. He does the customized doors and stairwell stairways and he's got. | 00:27:28 | |
| I think there's a couple other uses as well. Yeah, yeah. OK, awesome. Thanks for clarifying that, Morgan. So yeah, this is just an | 00:27:35 | |
| overview and we'll walk a little. I'll walk you through some more of the details on this as as I go along here with the | 00:27:41 | |
| presentation. But I just wanted to show you guys what what it is that they're just an overview of what they're proposing on their | 00:27:46 | |
| site plan. | 00:27:51 | |
| So in terms of freight planning and design, I really do think they checked all the boxes here. The buildings are building look | 00:28:00 | |
| really good. They have varied architectural forms. | 00:28:06 | |
| They're consistent with what's around them. | 00:28:15 | |
| They match a our natural environment. They're not blocking any like, you know, site Vista is important, important sight lines or | 00:28:18 | |
| anything. | 00:28:23 | |
| We did work with them to mitigate their building massing. The original design seemed a little bit too flat, I guess for lack of a | 00:28:29 | |
| better word, but working with their architecture and with Martin has been great to work with. They incorporated a lot of roofline | 00:28:37 | |
| variations and some relief warplanes decorative inserts. | 00:28:46 | |
| They incorporated a a variety of building materials and colors to match the surroundings. | 00:28:55 | |
| And they've actually added quite a number of entry points into their structures, which further add to the visual interest of of | 00:29:02 | |
| the building. The glass and the metals that are used on the structure are are going to look real nice. And then in terms of | 00:29:10 | |
| pedestrian and vehicle circulation, everything's up to standard and it's very safe. | 00:29:17 | |
| No parking spaces are more than 150 feet from the entrances. There's lots of sidewalks around around the building. | 00:29:26 | |
| And there there's enough ingress and egress points in and out of the site, so everything's checking out in terms of. | 00:29:35 | |
| Of physical design and just the functionality of of how the site works. | 00:29:45 | |
| In terms of landscaping, their coverage is actually quite substantial. They have about 140,000 square feet of landscaping on the | 00:29:52 | |
| site, which in an industrial zone. The the video zone code only requires a 5% minimum and they provided 25% of the project site | 00:29:59 | |
| is. | 00:30:07 | |
| Is landscape, so that's that's quite a bit and not that enough that landscaping. | 00:30:16 | |
| There's visible open space and that wetland area that's on the perimeters of the of the northern part of the site. They provided a | 00:30:20 | |
| nice landscape buffer to to make sure that that area is maintained in in in as as as as sensitive features. | 00:30:30 | |
| And then there there's plenty of appealing and water sensitive plant materials that they've incorporated. | 00:30:43 | |
| They've used deciduous trees, Evergreen shrubs, grasses. | 00:30:52 | |
| Again, that are all water sensitive and a lot of them are native plants. | 00:30:58 | |
| And then some of the topping materials that they use they've incorporated like their escape rock, gravel, mulch. So it's all, it's | 00:31:04 | |
| all very designed to be sustainable. | 00:31:09 | |
| And meet all of our standards, the parking. So they've exceeded our parking over minimum parking requirements. And here's the | 00:31:18 | |
| breakdown. | 00:31:22 | |
| So with the, with the, with the square footage that they're proposing. | 00:31:29 | |
| We would require 125 parking spaces for for their warehouse use, 22 for their manufacturing use, 75 for their office. | 00:31:36 | |
| And total they would they, we were requiring them 222 spaces. So they've exceeded that parking requirement by about 14 spaces and | 00:31:47 | |
| everything checks out with their ADA parking. I verified on the ata.gov website to make sure that they're the meeting that | 00:31:55 | |
| standard and, and they've absolutely provided the, the number of spaces needed. | 00:32:04 | |
| Here I want to show you the the building elevations. | 00:32:15 | |
| So there's, there's the four buildings on site. And yeah, these elevations just show the materiality variations that they're | 00:32:22 | |
| they're providing. They show the dots. So these are more detailed. | 00:32:28 | |
| And these are these are the final ones that that after all of our conversations and actions with Martin and and their company, | 00:32:37 | |
| these are the final previous ones which are looking nice. | 00:32:42 | |
| Here they have like a materials board here in the color palette. | 00:32:54 | |
| So we've asked the applicant there, so the Vineyard Heritage Trail runs just north of their project site and we've pointed out to | 00:33:01 | |
| the applicant that it might be a nice amenity that would they would provide to the site by making a connection to the Linden | 00:33:09 | |
| Heritage Trail to their site. And so that's something that they will be considering. | 00:33:17 | |
| And and they would be discussing in further meetings. | 00:33:26 | |
| So we just wanted to point that out to the applicant. It's not something that's required by the code per se, but the applicant is | 00:33:30 | |
| aware that that that could be a nice treatment to the site. And then I'm going to go back a few slides to talk about the | 00:33:35 | |
| screening. | 00:33:41 | |
| Sorry, parking speaking, I should clarify. So along here, along these the front, the front of the the three buildings here on the | 00:33:48 | |
| on the middle portion on the east side, there's about a 50 foot landscape buffer that provides a nice screening for the the | 00:33:54 | |
| parking that's in the rear of the site. But here on the southwest corner of the project site, the parking comes a little bit | 00:34:00 | |
| closer. | 00:34:07 | |
| And so we've brought up a discussion with with the applicant that we would like to see. | 00:34:14 | |
| Some more substantial screening close to the public right of way in front of this building and maybe perhaps along along here. So | 00:34:20 | |
| they're more than more than happy to. | 00:34:26 | |
| To meet that standard. And so they're, they're going to be updating a site plan and a landscape plan that reflects that that | 00:34:33 | |
| screening. And so we're at the end of this meeting, we're we're recommending that that is a condition of approval that that | 00:34:38 | |
| screening being put in place. | 00:34:44 | |
| At that point. | 00:34:53 | |
| OK. So our findings is that this this project, we feel it's a great project. We would it's, it's in line with all the Vineyard | 00:35:04 | |
| zoning code requirements. We've worked really closely with the applicants to get them to to meet all of our requirements. And our | 00:35:13 | |
| recommendation would be to approve the site plan application with the following conditions. | 00:35:22 | |
| That the applicant provides that screening as mentioned and that that updated site plan and landscape landscaping plan does the | 00:35:33 | |
| site that the screening materials that will be put in place. And of course, if the applicant is subject to all federal, state and | 00:35:41 | |
| local laws. So at this point, I'd like to open up the floor to questions and comments. | 00:35:49 | |
| And of course, part of the is here to answer any of your questions and he can walk you through any specifications that I wouldn't | 00:35:57 | |
| be able to. So thank you, Brian. I, I have just a quick question looking through the through everything. | 00:36:04 | |
| The only thing that didn't wasn't in compliance was the 30 foot side side yard set back. | 00:36:11 | |
| Is that in compliance now or what's going on with that in particular? | 00:36:20 | |
| I know what you're talking about. I looked on the. | 00:36:24 | |
| You're talking about right here, the 29 feet. | 00:36:29 | |
| I can't see it on your screen. Oh, there we go. Yeah, I was just looking on the on the agenda. It just said on page, right. And I | 00:36:34 | |
| think I made a mistake. I think the the minimum is actually 2025. I'm going to look it up. And so you you just stay, go, go. OK, | 00:36:42 | |
| sounds good. | 00:36:50 | |
| That was that was really my main question. I think everything else looks good. Any other commissioners have comments or questions? | 00:36:59 | |
| I had one question. I just put a link in the chat. This goes to a Google Street View of the end of the London Heritage Trail. And | 00:37:06 | |
| I just wanted clarity. I believe that it's, this is probably on the Linden property side. And I assume that the fence that you see | 00:37:13 | |
| in this picture, Brian, maybe you can pull it up on the screen is the boundary line. But that is a place where it's kind of | 00:37:20 | |
| unfinished and where a connection would be great. | 00:37:27 | |
| That may be more something that staff needs to take up with Linden City if it is off the property, but if it is on this property, | 00:37:35 | |
| then I would. | 00:37:38 | |
| Like to add a condition to complete that. | 00:37:44 | |
| Ending point. So I don't know if we can get any clarity there, Brian. | 00:37:47 | |
| Or the applicant, the applicants on, they would know their their property boundaries pretty well. Yeah. Hello. This is Marty | 00:37:52 | |
| Beljanic with Vineyard Properties and Eminent Properties. So it's difficult for me to say. What can you pinpoint where you're | 00:37:59 | |
| talking about? The trail comes and then it's the trail folks have it going across the street across Pioneer Lane at that point. | 00:38:06 | |
| Martin Snow has met with those folks multiple times. They have a, they have a, we own the property to the West of that as well and | 00:38:16 | |
| they're working on where that path is going to go. So it really it doesn't go at that point. The fence line is there and the | 00:38:22 | |
| trail. | 00:38:28 | |
| Jettison's like it's going to cross Pioneer Lane at that point, so their plan shows that going to the West and not coming onto our | 00:38:36 | |
| property, OK. | 00:38:39 | |
| We're happy to work with those folks and being with them. Like I said, we're there's this property and then it goes down by the | 00:38:45 | |
| railroad tracks and down by the. | 00:38:49 | |
| Meals for Martin Owens and property down there as well. So they also want a crossing there. So he he's happy to work and, you | 00:38:57 | |
| know, work out the details of where the trail goes, but it it just really doesn't, you know, it goes to the West from that point | 00:39:01 | |
| so. | 00:39:06 | |
| Brian, are you able to open? Did you send me something in the chat window? I put it in, oh, in the chat. OK, Sorry, Anthony, this | 00:39:11 | |
| is Chris Wilson. If I can expand on that a little bit too, so that there is a project that's currently going on that Linden City | 00:39:19 | |
| is running. They applied for some MAG funding, which is some state and county funding and they are moving forward with the design | 00:39:26 | |
| and the extension of that. | 00:39:34 | |
| Trail currently, so I believe and Don may know better than me, but I think they're going to try and have this trail completed, you | 00:39:41 | |
| know, so I think next year at some point. | 00:39:48 | |
| Applicants property line and they have nothing to do with it. Just curious. | 00:40:25 | |
| So, Anthony, it will cross diagonally to the power plant side of Pioneer Lane and then it will go along the backside of Pioneer | 00:40:31 | |
| Lane, I mean along the backside of the power plant, OK. I can see that kind of along that tree line there on the screen. OK, Yeah. | 00:40:42 | |
| So the idea is that it's going to cross diagonally across Pioneer Lane right there. | 00:40:56 | |
| OK, so completely outside of this project scope then here that that we're talking about tonight. Yeah, completely. OK, All right, | 00:41:02 | |
| that's what I wanted to confirm. Thanks. Right, Anthony, this is Morgan. So our our thought was if because this is not an area the | 00:41:10 | |
| street with sidewalks, the thought was if they could punch a connection from their side to the trail that could provide, you know. | 00:41:19 | |
| Just an amenity to employees. They could still get to the trail, obviously so. | 00:41:28 | |
| I don't know if it's a, it's a, it's a big deal. It's not required by code. It was just one of those like review comments, like | 00:41:33 | |
| you can make a connection. So anyway, Oh, and, and the set back corner side yard set back is 25 feet. | 00:41:41 | |
| OK, great. Thank you for clarifying that. Yeah, no, that that's my mistake. I I think I read the district people wrong that time. | 00:41:50 | |
| Yeah, when I double checked it, it's good. | 00:41:55 | |
| Cool. Great. | 00:42:01 | |
| Any other comments? Tim, Jessica. | 00:42:03 | |
| No, no, I think it looks good. | 00:42:07 | |
| Of them. | 00:42:09 | |
| No from do I have a motion on this? | 00:42:17 | |
| I'm going to post the motion here. | 00:42:21 | |
| Express, just out of curiosity or do you know what the use is going to be for this? Any tenants already signed up yet or anything | 00:42:27 | |
| that could be shared on that front? | 00:42:33 | |
| You know, not really at this point, just that. | 00:42:40 | |
| Mark, so he's got I think I want to see about 13 or 14 industrial buildings in Vineyard and then he's got another 15 I think in | 00:42:45 | |
| Linden. He runs, he owns that uis, the steel mill just on the other side of Geneva, on the other side of I-15 in Linden. And | 00:42:53 | |
| there's he's got two or three tenants just across to the back of this there's 150,000 square foot user. | 00:43:02 | |
| And to the east, he's got 2 tenants that have both about 60,000 square feet and they're looking to expand. | 00:43:12 | |
| So if I do my job properly, we can get this one filled up just with tenants that he already has and I'm I'm hoping to get another | 00:43:18 | |
| building just right across the street from this this one designed here pretty soon. The industrial you know that that market's | 00:43:24 | |
| real hot right now. We're looking to do another 150,000 square foot building over there because this this park just lends itself | 00:43:30 | |
| to big buildings and you know, I mean so. | 00:43:37 | |
| Cool, awesome. Thanks. | 00:43:44 | |
| Got that, Brian? Yeah. | 00:43:48 | |
| That's good. So, Morgan, are you fine with this? Oh my gosh. | 00:43:50 | |
| Here we go. Is that motion OK? Does it need to include any further wording? | 00:43:57 | |
| You know, I'm sorry, I was. I was trying to text someone. | 00:44:02 | |
| I guess I have to reset it, sorry. | 00:44:07 | |
| OK, so the previous. | 00:44:19 | |
| The conditions were these ones and if you want to take a second to look, so yeah, I would, I would have them read. So Brian, why | 00:44:24 | |
| if they're going to use this motion, you haven't read the motion then switch over to the conditions and haven't read the | 00:44:29 | |
| conditions in the record. OK, OK, sounds good. | 00:44:34 | |
| OK. So you guys can feel free to motion to start the motion. Thanks. All right, So I have someone that would like to make a | 00:44:43 | |
| motion. | 00:44:46 | |
| Yeah, I can do that. I, I motion make a motion to approve the East Lake Lot 5 site plan with the proposed conditions and we'll | 00:44:55 | |
| read those in here. | 00:45:00 | |
| So 1 The applicant shall provide screening of all parking lots of four or more spaces visible from Street View by a landscape | 00:45:07 | |
| firm, decorative wall, vertical landscaping or combination thereof, at least three feet high as measured from the finished grade | 00:45:14 | |
| adjacent to the parking area to be screened and there's a code reference there. The applicant shall update the site plan | 00:45:21 | |
| landscaping plan to reflect the addition of the screen materials along the public right of way and the applicant is subject to. | 00:45:29 | |
| State and local laws. We also discussed a trail connection, not a requirement, but something for the applicant to review so that | 00:45:37 | |
| that's my motion. All right, thank you, Anthony. Do I have a second? I second it. Thank you, Stan. And we'll do this roll call. | 00:45:45 | |
| All in favor Bryce. I Anthony, Tim I Jessica. Hi. All right, thank you guys. Motion passes. | 00:45:54 | |
| Thank you, Martin. Thank you, Commission. Yeah, thank you guys for your work on that. Yeah, thanks for your time and efforts on | 00:46:04 | |
| the Commission as well As for. | 00:46:07 | |
| Brian's time getting get me on the agenda. Thank you. Have a good night. | 00:46:13 | |
| All right. Doesn't look like we have a work session. Do you have any Commission member reports or ex parte discussion disclosures? | 00:46:19 | |
| No, you know, I might just mention very quickly, I've had a couple of occasions and and Morgan would probably know a lot about | 00:46:30 | |
| this as well, but with the whole car away. | 00:46:35 | |
| Had a couple of occasions to view the progress of work there and and they're the fencing for the 60 acre plot is essentially | 00:46:42 | |
| completed and they supposed to introduce cattle in there within the next two to three weeks. | 00:46:50 | |
| And they have the funding approved for the adjacent 100 plus acres. I want to say it's 120 acres that goes to the South. That will | 00:46:59 | |
| be the second section that will be fenced and they hope to begin fencing on that. | 00:47:07 | |
| Probably in the summer and that will be the lot where they will move the cattle through after they graze thoroughly on the lots | 00:47:16 | |
| that's currently fence that they'll start introducing cattle through. | 00:47:22 | |
| So that's kind of an exciting thing. I know there's been some complaints from residents who live down in that area with mud on the | 00:47:28 | |
| street and things like that. But they're doing a really good job, like along with the city, to clean the roads and try to make | 00:47:34 | |
| sure that they're not causing any undue harm to anybody. But it's a project that's progressing quite nicely. And I just wanted to | 00:47:41 | |
| share that I've had some involving with that. | 00:47:47 | |
| Awesome. Thank you, Tim. | 00:47:54 | |
| I actually do have fun things. | 00:47:57 | |
| Forgot this actually happened this next week, the installation of the opioid disposal unit and that was kind of the youth council | 00:48:00 | |
| initiative by one of our council people is going to happen this next week. So that Narkex disposable unit we put in there and | 00:48:06 | |
| we're hoping to send out some educational materials to the community so they know what it's for and why it's important. So that'll | 00:48:12 | |
| be happening. I said where would that be? | 00:48:19 | |
| In the city building. | 00:48:26 | |
| Awesome. I'm not sure exactly where healthy next week, but what they're going to put it there. It's something that in the past it | 00:48:28 | |
| it's just best if it's like over like it's locked away and not just open the public. There can be a misunderstanding that there's | 00:48:35 | |
| actually usable residue of opioids and so sometimes those are rated sadly. And so it's best if it's locked away and obviously the | 00:48:42 | |
| sheriff's department's house there and stuff. So it's best to keep it not kind of like so cool. Awesome. Thank you Jessica. | 00:48:50 | |
| All right. Does have anything from Morgan or Don Sullivan? I've got two things really quick. First is kind of connected what Tim | 00:48:58 | |
| was talking about. They've done a great job of getting Little Caraway kind of the first steps implemented as part of the phase | 00:49:06 | |
| behind the initial piece of ground to the overway zone. | 00:49:14 | |
| The this they allow the city to install a time lapse camera. | 00:49:23 | |
| On the boathouse which faces West and covers a significant portion of that area. And the idea is we thought it would be just kind | 00:49:28 | |
| of an interesting thing to to create a video of of kind of what the impact of the cattle will have on the Phragmites and the | 00:49:36 | |
| invasive species that are located within that, you know that that property and so. | 00:49:43 | |
| We thought it would be getting Tim might be interested in that, but we're just trying to document kind of that area. | 00:49:52 | |
| As it sees changes and you know, and as it becomes a more healthy natural environment. So hopefully we'll have in six months from | 00:49:58 | |
| now a video that we can, we can show, show the residents. So I think it's set for every like 15 minutes or so to take a picture. | 00:50:05 | |
| So it might be kind of a long video, but should, should be pretty good. The second thing is we're working on the general plan. So | 00:50:12 | |
| we have our other comments. | 00:50:19 | |
| Brian did a great job of bringing us through that work session last time. | 00:50:26 | |
| He's in the process of getting. | 00:50:29 | |
| Kind of a first draft together so that we can start making some amendments. We hope to get at least kind of our ideas and your | 00:50:33 | |
| initial thoughts down and then go to more of a public process. | 00:50:39 | |
| In April, that's kind of the time frame we'd like to kick off some of the public process for the the parks plan and the the | 00:50:48 | |
| moderate income housing plan. | 00:50:52 | |
| That's it for me. Cool. Thank you, Morgan. | 00:50:58 | |
| Don't you have anything for Chris? I don't have anything. Thank you. | 00:51:02 | |
| All right. Thanks, Holden. | 00:51:08 | |
| I don't have anything either, unless there are specific questions about something that's going on in the city. | 00:51:13 | |
| I think we're good. Thank you, Chris. I don't have anything either. | 00:51:19 | |
| All right. Thank you, Don. OK, thank you, everybody. Do I have a motion to adjourn the meeting? | 00:51:23 | |
| I'll make a motion to adjourn. | 00:51:29 | |
| Thanks. Do I have a second? I'll second. All right, all in favor. | 00:51:31 | |
| Aye. All right. Thank you, everybody. Have a great night. Thank you, Bryce. Good night, everybody. | 00:51:36 |
