Where we have responsibilities and opportunities, these things we humbly pray and thank you for the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. 00:01:23
Amen. Thank you so much, Tim. 00:01:28
All right. 00:01:33
So. 00:01:36
Going to move into an open session. If you if there's any public that has any comments that they would like to make, keep it in 3 00:01:38
minutes, just come up here to the stand I. 00:01:42
And yeah. 00:01:47
Any public. 00:01:50
No, All right. I will move into minutes for review and approval as you guys have a chance to take a look over that over the 00:01:52
minutes. 00:01:56
I wasn't here in the meeting, so I. 00:02:04
Abstaining. 00:02:06
Jeff, I did not look at that. OK, Amber, I read through them. I didn't listen to the audio. We just need to read through. 00:02:08
Right. Yeah, yeah. Read through the minutes, the audio, but it's pretty, you know, that that happened. OK, Yes, I did read. I did 00:02:17
read through it. So I make a motion to, what do I say, approve the minutes from July 7th, from July 7th, July 2nd. 00:02:26
I'll second all in favor. Aye, aye. All right, moving into business Item 4.1 that about Times site plan. 00:02:35
OK, my name is Brian Maya Perez. I serve as a city planner here. 00:02:46
So the applicant, his name is Ryan Naylor, he's with Nichols Naylor architect and we're going to be looking at. 00:02:52
The Bout Time Pub and Grub site plan application proposal and more specifically the the exterior extension of a dining area. 00:03:03
So yeah, just jump right into it. So this is right here in this location is where the where the. 00:03:15
Restaurant will be locating. The address is 568 Mill Road and it's directly West of the Megaplex Theater as you can see. 00:03:24
So this application first started as a commercial TI, but then a site plan application was triggered due to these exterior the 00:03:35
exterior dining element of it. So we processed that through a through a site plan application. 00:03:41
This application is interesting because as you know this This site is. 00:03:51
Has already been approved as a through master development development agreement. So there are elements that we won't be discussing 00:03:55
in this because they've already been talked about and approved in a in a previous Planning Commission, but we will be talking 00:04:01
about. 00:04:06
That canopy and specific and kind of the effects that that canopy could that dining area can have on the surrounding environment. 00:04:13
Umm, so as you know this area is zoned RMU and so that's to provide a mix of uses daytime and night time and it's supposed to 00:04:22
facilitate commercial office and and potentially residential as well. 00:04:28
So let me show you some pictures. That glare's not letting me through. My tabs are but. 00:04:37
Show some pictures of. 00:04:43
The proposal here. 00:04:46
So the restaurant will be located here and this is where the the outdoor seating area is being proposed. 00:04:49
So they're going to add about 15 tables if I'm not wrong, and that that area will measure. So the canopy is 15 feet in height, 10 00:05:00
inches. The length is about 55 feet one and 1/4 inch. The width is 15 feet 3 inches and it will all be enclosed by a three foot. 00:05:13
Steel fence. 00:05:28
It won't be. 00:05:30
It won't be like totally enclosed or there's like walls and things. It's just a rail and then it'll you can see through it 00:05:33
basically and then they'll be the dining tables. 00:05:38
So we, we definitely do like when developers propose this, this sort of project because. 00:05:45
It provides an opportunity to really engage that space to provide a lot of visual interest. 00:05:52
And. 00:06:00
And it really enhances the sense of human scale and provides that vibrancy that we want to see in a lot of development. We just 00:06:00
want to make sure that. 00:06:04
Any sort of elements that we see that could cause concerns are properly addressed and and we really do believe that that the 00:06:10
applicant does does want to. 00:06:16
Work towards that. And so they're here to to answer any questions that that you guys might have. 00:06:24
Just a little bit more on the site plan. 00:06:31
As you see. 00:06:33
This The outdoor seating area will not allow an pedestrian flow to go on on on this sidewalk any longer. But. 00:06:37
The applicant is maintaining fire access by providing A5 foot clearance. 00:06:51
For pedestrians just South of the of that seating area and of course there's an alternative route through the other sidewalk 00:06:57
facility that has been provided. 00:07:03
They're also proposing. 00:07:11
A so this I'm going to zoom in a little bit, this area here between the rail so this dark line around the edge is that 3 foot rail 00:07:15
that they're proposing and there's. 00:07:21
There's they're leaving about a 5 foot pedestrian clearance for access. They're providing an ADA ramp here that will lead into 00:07:28
this new painted crosswalk and it will terminate here at this existing ADA aisle. 00:07:37
In the stock report, I expressed concerns about the termination of this crosswalk at this ADA access aisle, but in speaking with. 00:07:48
With Morgan and with George in the building department there, they don't have any concerns with that. So we can ignore those 00:07:59
comments from the staff report regarding that. But there is a section of the code that reads that. Let me find it here. 00:08:09
I'm just going to pull it up here in the code. 00:08:25
Or in the. 00:08:28
Conditions. 00:08:30
OK. It says areas where pedestrian walkways cross driveways shall be constructed of stamped and or raised concrete or of other 00:08:36
material and design so as to differentiate the areas of pedestrian vehicle interface. So I personally. 00:08:44
As you can see, the other crosswalks throughout the development do meet the standard. And so that's one thing that I wanted to 00:08:54
make sure of in this discussion is that this, this crosswalk, however it is finalized that it does meet that that requirement. So 00:09:02
I, I would like to see something that comes a little closer to this. 00:09:10
So that's that's my concern there. 00:09:20
Regarding. 00:09:24
The the materiality of the canopy itself. Let me pull up the elevation here. 00:09:27
So, umm. 00:09:36
The applicant has provided some visual cues, but we typically have applicants provide a, what we call materials board that 00:09:39
actually shows the the actual elements, construction elements that are on there, the, the, the metal pieces, the, I don't know, 00:09:45
the trimming pieces, the brick that's going to be used. So we we did not receive that from the applicant, but we did receive this, 00:09:52
which does show some. 00:09:58
Elements of what's being constructed here. 00:10:06
And so pardon me. 00:10:08
They're showing a metal roofing here that's going to be colored a charcoal Gray and they're also showing. 00:10:11
A gauntlet, Gray steel for for the railing and a few other elements on the canopy. 00:10:20
In in. 00:10:28
The applicant Ryan also sent me this which provides a little bit more color. 00:10:30
And then I also received. 00:10:37
This picture I'm pulling up another picture. 00:10:41
This picture of another location, I believe this is your, did you say American Fork West Jordan, a location in West Jordan that 00:10:46
is, is designed very similarly though ours, the one that they're proposing here in Vineyard is going to be a slightly different 00:10:52
color. It's going to be a darker Gray color, if I'm not wrong. And so this is kind of gives you a little bit more of a visual cue 00:10:58
as to what what they're proposing. 00:11:05
What they're doing here isn't going to have the brick wall. No, no, it won't have the brick wall. 00:11:12
Well, but it will, it will have these footings, right? 00:11:19
OK, OK. Just Combs. OK. 00:11:24
All right, so just the railing then? 00:11:27
So we, we needed to get you get your opinion, the, the Commission's opinion on, on, on the materiality and design of this. I want 00:11:34
to make sure that the applicant is meeting all of our requirements. 00:11:42
But. 00:11:52
We just needed some further assistance from you guys to see if if you guys would would be alright with with this proposed design. 00:11:53
Do you guys have any questions regarding what they're proposing? 00:12:04
Anybody have any questions? 00:12:10
I do. I do. 00:12:12
First, Brian, on the site plan there was a a symbol on that plan that I assume showing up from the civil. 00:12:14
Site Planet, that like a light fixture? That's not a light fixture or something right in that aisle for the 88 parking stall. This 00:12:24
right here, yeah. 00:12:28
That's not that's something underground or something, right? 00:12:35
But it's in the wrong location. 00:12:39
OK, OK. 00:12:42
OK. 00:12:44
But it's not in that spot. There's not an existing. It shows up in the plan. But the way it was built, it's not in that location. 00:12:46
Sorry. Can you can you come to the microphone? Thank you, Ryan. 00:12:51
And I knew you can introduce yourself. Ryan Taylor Nichols, Naylor Architects. 00:12:57
Yeah, the I received this CAD file from the original architect for the development and. 00:13:05
There's a difference between the way that those stalls were installed and how that is represented. The spacing slightly different, 00:13:11
so there's no conflict with the. 00:13:16
With the access aisle there so. 00:13:21
OK, Yeah, we're just looking at in Google Earth. It looks like it's close, but it's not complex. So as long as that's not in 00:13:27
conflict, obviously that would be. 00:13:30
A problem, right? If the access ran into a light pole? 00:13:35
OK. Yeah. I just want to ask about that. But I mean, I think otherwise for me personally is the blocking of the access along that 00:13:41
sidewalk. 00:13:45
I'm not. 00:13:50
Too terribly concerned with I think the crossing is a little clunky, but I realize there's not a lot of options of other ways to 00:13:52
do that. I think the site has enough circulation in other places around it and I think the benefit of having outdoor dining on 00:13:59
that sidewalk is it that's a positive to have people out there and have that life on the street. So I don't have any concerns 00:14:07
about that. What I do have concerns with and sorry if I. 00:14:14
Away from the mic on the elevations and the way the way it looks in the plants is that it it, it really looks like it's an add-on, 00:14:22
like it's an afterthought from the original building rather than integrating architecturally with with the existing building. 00:14:31
Looks like something that was tacked on as a as a patio. 00:14:40
Because. 00:14:50
It, it's, it's pretty bare bones and then the pitch on the roof, you know, there's no other sloped roof elements on these 00:14:51
buildings. And so it's a very foreign, it's bringing in architectural pieces. They're very foreign to the building. 00:14:59
So my my concern is just that it's going to look like a. 00:15:08
An afterthought and is not tying in necessarily with the rest of the development color wise. Ideally it would be nice to see what 00:15:12
those colors look like next to the existing. However, they're both Gray, the dark Gray, and a lighter Gray, so it'll probably be 00:15:18
fine. 00:15:24
But I think for me that's that's my biggest concern is. 00:15:31
It's not really tying in any way the existing building. 00:15:35
So to address those questions, umm. 00:15:41
So the side of that building, it's a little some challenges there. You know, we this wasn't just like. 00:15:44
You know, we just stuck it on the side. There wasn't any thought there. You know, if you look at the top line, we were trying to 00:15:50
line it up with the heads of the windows and then the the lower line was intended to line up with the canopy next to it. When you 00:15:56
look at it, there's those brick Piers that go up like part of the way. So if we were to, you know, try and line it up with that 00:16:02
main canopy there, you basically run into the, into the kind of like you have about 18 inches of that brick pier sticking up above 00:16:08
the roof. 00:16:14
Your comment is one that the developer brought up to us. Also he was concerned about the sloping roof. So I I have an option 00:16:21
that's. 00:16:26
Flatter, so it basically lines up with that entry canopy. I mean, I can give that to you if you want to see that. We'll see what 00:16:32
that looks like. Yeah, I think that would be, that would be great. 00:16:37
So there's version. 00:16:46
It shows it on the side elevation. 00:16:57
Which direction? 00:17:02
So towards it's sloping down towards the movie theater East East. 00:17:03
So this this space is the drive aisle. 00:17:09
Day on, Yeah. 00:17:15
It's more about weather. 00:17:18
Yeah, I mean. 00:17:27
Personally I, you know, pass these down unless you guys have the same thing we have. 00:17:29
I think the lower lower slope I think. 00:17:37
Personally I I would prefer that option. I think it. 00:17:43
Even though it's not identical, you know it will have some slope. It won't look exactly like the the metal canopy that's on the 00:17:46
corner. I think it'll be less distracting as a as a new element and that people fit in a little bit better. 00:17:54
Does anyone else on the Commission have any comments? Another question, so the main entrance is on the north side, correct? Yeah, 00:18:05
the the doors on the South of those exit only or how does that work? 00:18:11
On the backside of the building, South end, Yeah, those are just be, you know, for deliveries or for backup house kind of kitchen. 00:18:17
Yeah, OK. 00:18:21
They're not using, there's like 3 doors or something on there that are actually going to be essentially covered up. There's only 00:18:26
going to be 1 door that's utilized on the back. OK because I know another restaurant in that area actually uses that backside for 00:18:33
an entry. Transcendent. The only reason I was asking is whether you want it to happen or not. People will walk around the patio in 00:18:39
the street. Hopefully no one's driving more than 5 miles an hour anyway, but like. 00:18:46
That will happen, I mean, whether it's designed for that or not. So I just wonder if there was back entrance. 00:18:54
No, there's not planned on being an entrance there. 00:19:00
It's a good point though that people might overflow. I mean the the parking stalls in the middle. 00:19:03
Threat of that metal Dr. aisle. The angled parking is usually pretty folks and a lot of its 88 parking. So a lot of people that 00:19:09
come to this development park behind the yeah South in that overflow that ends up being kind of the primary parking. That was part 00:19:16
of my observation. I went over there and spent about an hour and a half today just watching. 00:19:23
Pedestrian flow. 00:19:31
And I took it a little sample, informal sample. There were 24 people in the course of an hour and a half who parked behind the 00:19:34
building and walked north. Now, if I recall my numbers, 12 of them went toward the theater, so they kind of angled off toward the 00:19:44
theater. But the other 12, about 50%, walked up that sidewalk and went into the shop, that little shopping area. 00:19:53
Now that's just a very simple sample midday. 00:20:04
But I'm very concerned about blocking pedestrian traffic. 00:20:07
They're up that sidewalk. That's one of my biggest concerns is because the only place I'll have to walk in is in the street. If 00:20:11
they continue parking behind the building and wanting to access that little part of that little, yeah, they'll have to go around. 00:20:18
And. 00:20:26
I'm just wondering if there aren't other options. I looked the ice cream place there has put out benches in the in the sidewalk. 00:20:28
They look like they're movable portable benches. I understand that's not a dining area and ice cream is different than meals and 00:20:34
and I'm wondering what would be opening up for other restaurants. The only one across the street just to the north, the umami. Is 00:20:40
that what it's called restaurant? 00:20:46
They have a similar situation sidewalk just to their east. 00:20:54
And if they were to come in for a request to do such, we would be hard pressed not to allow them to do that if we went ahead and 00:20:59
approved this one. 00:21:03
Yep, Yep. Brian, along those lines, had this come in initially with, with the canopy there, would, would our requirements have 00:21:08
been to have a, a walkway around it or how, how would that have worked? You know what I mean? Like if this came in fresh, 00:21:15
nothing's there and then you're building this with a patio on it, we would require a sidewalk. Is that how that would work? I 00:21:23
believe so. I mean, if you need to look into it a little bit more, that's right. No, but I think that's right, yeah. And. 00:21:30
Nodding it over there, I think that's correct. 00:21:38
So I'm just, you know, that's, that's my main. I love the idea of outside eating. I really do. I'm wondering if there aren't 00:21:41
options though, that you could accomplish the same purpose without taking the entire sidewalk. 00:21:48
Or if there's something that could be done in the street way right there. 00:21:55
To allow for a little bumper zone, you know, to like you see in some neighborhoods where there's a little bumper in the street 00:22:00
that. 00:22:04
Blocks off another two or three feet so that people can walk there. Are you talking like a bollard? Like I'm not sure what they're 00:22:08
called, One of those posts? No, it's not a post. It's just a concrete thing in the street that sets off a little bit of area. I 00:22:15
don't know. That's as I looked at this. I love the concept, I really do, but I'm just wondering if there aren't some options 00:22:23
without taking that whole. What is it? An 8 foot wide sidewalk? It's 15 feet wide. 15 feet wide. 00:22:30
Taking that whole thing yet 15 by three to five. 00:22:38
Without taking that whole sidewalk for eating. 00:22:42
I mean, obviously we're trying to find the correct balance between getting comfortable tables for our, you know, our occupants and 00:22:48
getting patio space. So the more tables we can get out there the better. And then we also have to balance that with some 00:22:54
requirements that we have for the DABC of fencing that area. And so it has to be an enclosed area. We can't just have it, you 00:23:01
know, more open. 00:23:07
You know, I'm just wondering, could could 10 feet accomplish some of the same purpose without taking all 15 feet and therefore 00:23:14
allowing three to four to five feet still for pedestrian traffic up and down the north-south corridor? Just just thoughts because 00:23:21
I'm concerned about pedestrian access into that little mall type area there. 00:23:28
Because most of the people I saw and I didn't notice who was parking in the angled parking lots, but those that I saw were parking 00:23:36
behind the building on the South side and walking north. 00:23:42
Engineering. Do you guys have any input on this? 00:23:49
Nothing at all engineering so in regards to the requirements that the applicant needs to meet in order to for the permits for the 00:23:57
for being able to serve there. 00:24:02
When they attempt on what they're trying to do needs that in regards to the accessibility for the sidewalk on that it comes down 00:24:08
to. 00:24:12
Providing the points of access, points of access to allow people across. I mean the the complex is a shopping complex with load so 00:24:19
low speeds and with backward lighting on that and also the intent of the what was provided here. 00:24:29
By the applicant means the attempted purposes with the provider for the existing infrastructure and structure as well. So I mean 00:24:39
in regards to our, our, our, excuse me, in regards to what was provided in our opinions as to what was provided me so intent. 00:24:48
What are your feelings on like a safer buffer zone of like a walk area along there where car traffic wouldn't be, Even if it's 00:24:59
just kind of a little bit of a shoulder there, I don't know if you want to encourage that or discourage that one. 00:25:06
It comes down to how it's applied, but and then of course you factor in the human factor into everything on that when you start 00:25:13
restricting the car access of on that area like on a buffer on the street pretty much where. 00:25:21
What's going to happen is you're causing. You're putting conflict at the top of conflict on top of conflict. 00:25:29
So if you allow the, allow that area to be again. 00:25:34
Vehicle or traffic as is as is assigned and then you have your pedestrian access points to the north of the crosswalks to the 00:25:41
north of it or established one in your choosing to place another investment crosswalk along the southern part. You know proper I 00:25:48
want to say signalization, but proper assignment will allow that for there to be. 00:25:56
A identification for pedestrian areas. So you think I'm sorry. I wish I again, in my opinion would probably meet downtown. But if 00:26:06
you're starting to put barriers into the road. 00:26:11
With well probably end up happening will be causing conflict for vehicle or traffic without the regards of pedestrian. 00:26:19
So you think it was designed well enough that we can have this sort of access? 00:26:27
Or have this sort of design and it's the traffic is slow enough and it's pedestrian friendly enough, but this would be OK. 00:26:33
With proper signage and things and we shouldn't be adding a bunch of elements. Is that kind of what you're saying? 00:26:41
OK, there we go. I thought you had question down so. 00:26:50
Excuse me, Yeah. What was what's present? What's presented is that. 00:26:55
On that I mean entry when you start adding more. 00:26:59
More control, more devices, more barriers into the into the into vehicle error traffic tends to cause more conflicts at times. So 00:27:04
the way that's presented me sometime in with the Aqua and again when it comes down to pedestrian safety, this is not a not a. 00:27:14
Corridor for vehicles to get from north to South and east to West and where the vehicle air speed is, is intent to be low as well. 00:27:25
So again, crosswalks are intended to allow safe passage for pedestrians and but. However, we all know that pedestrians shall find 00:27:36
an easiest, shortest point or path to point A to point B. 00:27:41
Well, but for my observation, you're still going to have people walking along the North S route, but they just won't be walking on 00:27:48
a sidewalk. They'll be walking in the road and it is a pub. There will be alcohol served. I'm wondering about impairment of 00:27:55
walking perhaps. I don't know if it's going to get to that point, but I'm just really concerned about the pedestrian movement 00:28:02
North and South right there for that 55 foot stretch. 00:28:09
And I think we need to be really thinking about what we can do to safeguard. 00:28:17
Any potential pedestrian automobile conflict right there? And granted, cars don't drive faster usually. 00:28:21
But I'm not sure that they obey the 5 miles an hour I didn't today. 00:28:31
Prohibit through traffic walking through that gated area. 00:28:37
You're saying if the gate was open and yeah, you can't do that. It's not prohibited, OK. 00:28:42
You, you might have, you might have said this earlier, the main entrance on that north side in these three bays, where is the main 00:28:54
entrance to the restaurant going to be? It's going to be on that North East corner, right there under northeast corner. 00:29:01
Because what I was thinking is maybe you know if. 00:29:11
I see your point now, Tim and I, I agree and so. 00:29:15
I wonder if it's not better, you know, if if you could and I realize you can't move the roof canopy. You only have so much 00:29:21
coverage with the roof canopy because the the existing canopy that's there being in conflict. So you're not gaining, you're going 00:29:27
to lose some of your covered seating area. But if if you brought your seating area forward further north, you know, around that 00:29:34
corner so that even some of that outdoor seating, patio seating is engaged more on that. 00:29:41
Central promenade area and picked up more space there. I realize it's not going to be a one for one trade, but you know, I could 00:29:49
see allowing more space up there, stretching it to the north a little bit, but picking up that. 00:29:55
48 inches or five feet. 00:30:03
As a as a walkway along the curb, between the fence and the curb. 00:30:06
It seems to be more protected on that north side. 00:30:13
For pedestrians, because you have the angular parking, angular space and other restaurants, at least the ice cream place, that's 00:30:17
kind of done that. They've moved outside a little bit on the South side of their building, but. 00:30:24
I don't know if what you're still trying to accomplish, but I like that idea. 00:30:31
So my my thoughts that I was just going to share real quick is definitely for giving up the full sidewalk. I think it's very 00:30:40
reasonable to require the same. 00:30:45
Crossing that are already in, just have that on the South side and I think it's just the stamped concrete, but something that ties 00:30:51
in exactly the same as those other ones. That was like design elements I have no issues with whatsoever. 00:30:59
I think it's great that it's coming in and I'd love to see it sooner rather than later. But yeah, the crossing is my only 00:31:07
question. So anything we could do to discourage people walking in the street, I don't know if it's extending the railing a little 00:31:11
further or, you know, pointing them, you know, if you if you need to go back this way across the crosswalk or go around the 00:31:16
alleyway, I don't know what it is. But no matter what you do, I mean, I think people are going to do whatever's convenient for 00:31:21
them, so. 00:31:25
And to be clear, there's plenty of jaywalking going on there currently, right? Like, it's not. It's not. Yeah. It's like this is 00:31:31
something that's never been seen over there. 00:31:36
A couple of my comments. I agree that the crosswalk needs to match the other crosswalks. It was something that when we talked 00:31:43
about this whole area that was kind of a particular point. Another thing if. 00:31:49
If it gets approved where the sidewalk on that side closes, then I think that it's important that the alleyway that goes in 00:31:56
between the two buildings. 00:32:00
Has better lighting has, is more welcoming because it looks like an alleyway on that side right now. And if you look at it on 00:32:04
Google Maps, there's like no lighting on that entrance there. And it just seems like you're not supposed to go in this way. If 00:32:10
that became something where it's like, oh, this is more welcoming. This is the way your Aussies go. Like if there was some kind of 00:32:16
design elements there, they were like, OK, this is this is obviously the way to go and more people would flow through that way. 00:32:22
But right now it's it's very much not. 00:32:28
There's a power box and just all the power boxes for all the buildings. There's no design elements, no lighting. So I think that 00:32:34
if that E sidewalk was closing, then that W sidewalk alleyway needs to be much more inviting. So I think with what you're saying 00:32:42
about, you know, that you brought up about letting us extend it a little bit further to north and let me have my client, Tim talk 00:32:49
to him about whether or not. 00:32:57
Fine with. 00:33:04
You know, having a three foot walkway, I mean basically all you would need to meet ADA is a three foot wide, you know, section of 00:33:06
sidewalk with five foot, you know, sections at each end to meet ADA. So if we move the fence over three feet I think. 00:33:14
It's still leaving, okay. 00:33:24
Tim, will you please introduce yourself to the microphone? Tim Ryan, owner, About Time Pub and Grab. 00:33:27
So how about this? 00:33:33
That, I think, ties the whole thing up with a neat bow. 00:33:37
It's a 15 foot concrete span right now. 00:33:40
We'll take the patio back to 12. 00:33:47
Leaving the three foot access for pedestrians that will address this concern. 00:33:49
Remove the crosswalk, right, And so give up on the crosswalk. It's no longer necessary because it's not replacing anything that's 00:33:56
been taken away. You don't have to deal with lighting. 00:34:01
Give us an approval that gives us the option to extend the patio around that corner as was suggested. Not sure we want to do that. 00:34:09
I think there's. 00:34:14
Complications there. There's also, there's a fire pit out there, right, that's on the corner that I don't know if we really want 00:34:21
to work around, but at least give us the option to explore that and then perhaps leave us with the roof as proposed at our option. 00:34:28
I will go back to the developer. I have no heartburn whether it's on an angle or flat, but it will be considerably more expensive 00:34:36
if we're required to. 00:34:43
Adjust the pitch, but if the developer wants to pitch that way. 00:34:52
I'm sure he'd be happy to pay for it. 00:34:57
To clarify, you're saying that the flatter option is considerably more expensive, It will be more expensive. I don't, I don't have 00:34:59
a dollar amount on that yet because that was an issue that just came up with the manufacturer today and they said, Oh yeah, we can 00:35:04
of course do that, but it's it's more. 00:35:08
But fine. And then, you know, as far as the colors go, umm. 00:35:14
For that part, we're planning to at this point match, there's some Gray vertical siding that's already on that. 00:35:20
Building, you see it as you're, you know, driving down the street. It's fine. It's not our prototype color, but. 00:35:29
This is not a space where that awning is in any way an advertisement, you know, it's on a non St. facing side and so on and so 00:35:36
forth. But if you guys feel good about working with us on those conditions, we feel fine about it and. 00:35:43
Wrap it up. Must get thing built. 00:35:50
So if if we were to go north, letting them go north. 00:35:57
How would we want to go about that kind of looking at the roof that's currently there, the fire pit that's I think it's just it's 00:36:03
a non covered extension of the patio space, but the roof has to I think the roof there awning stops where the existing I agree 00:36:11
with canopy is at the corner, because I think that's complicated. So we could simply continue the metal rail, right? And that's 00:36:18
just not a rainy day space, which they have right like right now if you look. 00:36:26
Elevation of that side, on that east side, you'll see that the railing on the ground floor goes past the covered roof portion, so 00:36:34
there's already some portion of that patio space uncovered. 00:36:40
Yeah, I'd be, it seems to make sense, like as long as it didn't extend any further north than the frontage of the building there, 00:36:46
I don't see why that would cause any issue personally. Yeah, and I think that eliminates the back door concern as well. I feel 00:36:52
much better about having a sidewalk access. Yeah. And, and for our purposes, we're going to narrow those existing. They're still 00:36:58
showing on the old plan, but there's three entrances because that space was designed that it could be demised in the three 00:37:04
businesses. 00:37:10
We're going to have one main door. 00:37:17
There and not use the back door. She's a better control point, you know, to monitor customers and if you're checking ID's and so 00:37:19
on and so forth, it's better. 00:37:23
Control point. 00:37:29
OK, so not speaking for everyone here, but I think that yeah, if you do the 12 foot. 00:37:33
A 12 foot roof leaving that 3 foot area and I think that we're fine with how it is and extending the fence at least to the front 00:37:42
face of the building, we're fine with that as well. 00:37:48
Right my. 00:37:55
As long as that's not against any the the canopy doesn't can. Yeah, yeah, right. I think what Anthony said, I think we extend the 00:37:57
patios that. 00:38:02
Fenced off patio space, provided that we maintain, you know, pedestrian clearances and stuff like that around it, like we are on 00:38:09
the one side. 00:38:13
OK. 00:38:20
Otherwise, I think I think the materials look good. 00:38:22
It would be nice to see them, of course, but it's it's pretty basic and I think that we get a pretty solid idea of that. 00:38:26
Any other comments? No, no. 00:38:36
Up there now. 00:38:41
So we won't add, I think that's, I think it's better, yeah. Then we don't have that. 00:38:44
Brian, could we put in a condition? 00:38:50
To have staff approve materials Board still take a look at that. 00:38:54
Yeah, I think so. 00:39:00
Yeah. 00:39:07
You know, we'll get with that information. Yeah, I just wouldn't want to have to. I'm thinking of ways that we could move it 00:39:08
forward without having to come back to this stuff. 00:39:12
Must be provided a material works yeah to match to match existing. 00:39:17
OK. 00:39:24
So I know I was this particular that brought up the flat roof thing and it's not, that's not a hill I'm going to die on. And we 00:39:27
don't have any code reason to enforce that. I I'm not sure why it would come back that much more expensive, but. 00:39:34
You know, I would prefer the flatter roof, but that's not. 00:39:42
If that's not going to work, I'd rather have the walkway like we're talking about too anyway, so I'm indifferent to it honestly, 00:39:47
you know? 00:39:52
But again, it'll just be a point of dollars at that point. We'll be giving up some dollars and seating, you know future revenue. 00:39:59
And in this business and particularly now anywhere you can pick it up, it sure is fine. But I but if the developer chooses, you 00:40:05
know to take in a little bit and they're great guys. 00:40:11
But you know, they maybe. 00:40:18
The code does call for consistency in design. So I don't think it's too outlandish in my opinion to require that it does look and 00:40:21
match what's around it. That's exactly what the code calls for actually. Well, and a shorter going from 15 to 12 feet, I mean, the 00:40:26
pitch is going to change probably from your, you are going to save some steel on those supports and you're going to, I mean the, 00:40:32
the lower pitch roof your columns in the back. And I guess I'm not sure how you're attaching it with its concert to the building, 00:40:38
but. 00:40:44
They're a little shorter, so. 00:40:50
There, there should be some some savings. I mean, is it going to be like a membrane and fully enclosures? It's just a metal just 00:40:53
to shed the roof. Yeah, I'm not sure why that would come back more expensive. 00:40:59
But umm. 00:41:05
That's I just have to pay for it. I understand your position. I I know your position, right? 00:41:07
This is a very small thing, but if it were inclined. 00:41:14
And it were raining, all the rain would run down onto the pedestrians, right? It has an integrated. Yeah, that's a good point. 00:41:18
Of that patio that happens to be 3 feet in it so when it comes down. 00:41:32
I know I just wouldn't want to walk down there. 00:41:39
So Tim, just so I understand because so basically this is going to be brought back to 12 feet, there's going to be a three foot 00:41:43
clearance here to meet minimum ADA requirements. 00:41:48
And then the the rail here is going to, is it going to wrap around this northern side of the building and then terminate somewhere 00:41:54
within your terminate? 00:41:59
Back you see that? 00:42:07
There's a right right there. OK, maximum. 00:42:10
Terminate there. 00:42:19
It's over toward the parking. 00:42:22
Kind of where that parking is at an angle, it's kind of in there and it would have quite a bit of clearance to us. 00:42:27
And I'm not sure that we'll go around that corner, but we like the flexibility to do it if we get back to looking at it makes 00:42:36
sense. 00:42:38
Do we can move through? Do we want that minimum of three feet or? 00:42:43
Because looking at just looking at the map. 00:42:51
If this is kind of the access for people coming from that direction to the. 00:42:54
Yeah, just looking, would you like me to put anything on the screen price? 00:43:00
Sure. Yeah. If you if you could just bring up Google Maps, yeah. 00:43:05
And kind of just show that corner. 00:43:08
So naturally these little fire pit areas. 00:43:24
And to be gathering places if there's waiting for any restaurants. And so I worry about if we're extending, if we're extending it 00:43:28
out far and there's only three feet between the fence and that fire pit. And that's going to be a congestion area. Yeah. Because 00:43:36
you can't really go around on the north side of that fire pit. It's kind of just. 00:43:43
There, so I worry about that. 00:43:53
Yes, yes, I worry about if the fence is coming up so close to this and that's. 00:44:00
I don't think that we'd have a problem with just tying it back to the corner of the building. That would be great that that's fine 00:44:05
that the. 00:44:09
Last time I was there, somebody had hit that fire pit with a vehicle and it has a huge crack in it. So I'm not sure. I'm sure it's 00:44:14
going to be repaired and replaced, but. 00:44:20
To me, I'm not sure why it's there, but you can see the drain, right? 00:44:26
Running on that sidewalk so we'll just. 00:44:30
That's the three feet. And then even like as a future idea, not something that we're approving right now, but I think it could be 00:44:32
cool to even have some space in that northern area dedicated to dining, adding a roof area and having some. 00:44:40
Some space on the Northside. 00:44:48
In the future, but not near the entrance. Just a thought though. 00:44:51
You're saying further further West of the entrance but on that N patio like a separate? 00:44:57
The main door will be here, next one over. 00:45:05
There. 00:45:11
OK. 00:45:13
So, yeah, if you're fine with us approving it as the fence going to just that front corner, yeah, that's fine. Then I, I, I think 00:45:15
we could prove something like that. 00:45:20
OK, I'm just trying to. 00:45:27
Put together all the notes of everything you've discussed. Sorry. So it was the three foot on the east side. 00:45:28
The. 00:45:38
No crosswalk. The fence, The lower 3 foot fence would go to the corner of the northeast the northeast corner of the building. 00:45:40
At least looking from an east elevation, exterior elevation. 00:45:53
That I think. I think I agree that the lower pitch. 00:45:58
Makes more sense for this area. 00:46:04
I would think that we should make it a requirement personally. 00:46:09
Is there any opposition to that? 00:46:15
All right. So you have design, consistent design consistency of the lower pitched roof. I think the lower pitch rather than the 00:46:18
steeper pitch makes more sense for the area. 00:46:22
And I think that's it. 00:46:29
Then if there needs to be approval of material boards, if we don't have to come back to the Planning Commission, yeah, yeah. So I 00:46:31
would like to say that an updated site plan and materials board needs to be provided to staff. 00:46:38
Along with that, yeah. And then the last, the very last. 00:46:47
Topic that I want to touch on is so nuisances with like sound, only 65 decibels are permitted at any time of day from the 00:46:51
restaurant. So just to prevent any possible, you know, noise that is inappropriate. 00:47:00
You know, that's a great question. 00:47:13
Definite. Oh, maybe 70 decibels is a vacuum cleaner, right? Just restaurant noise. 00:47:17
And so you show, I mean show fights, games, things like that inside. What will outdoors have access to that too, like outdoor 00:47:25
screens and all that? I think so. OK here. Yeah, I think that's fine. I think it's great. I think that the intent is just 00:47:31
essentially general restaurant noise and acceptable, right. So I don't think in our 14 locations in 12 years we've ever had an 00:47:38
outdoor. 00:47:44
Patio issue. I'm not concerned in this area. 00:47:51
People are coming out of IMAX cranked up. 00:47:55
OK, All right. Well then we probably don't need to make that a specific condition. 00:48:01
Will there be any additional lighting on that east side where there will be typical restaurant type flight or will it be lighting 00:48:09
towards the pedestrian passage down? 00:48:15
Yeah, because there's lighting currently on the building on that east side. Will there be any lighting? We'll install additional 00:48:24
lighting under the patio, which will now sounds like probably be high enough, but we'll have a lot of, lot of illumination. 00:48:32
Bleeding out but. 00:48:41
We'll run a course of round pendants that. 00:48:44
OK inside but down the length of it OK. 00:48:49
OK. 00:48:55
Naseem and Chris, do you guys have any final comments before we try to make an attempt to get these conditions right? 00:48:58
No, the final comments. 00:49:10
That was the most dramatic No, I've ever. 00:49:13
Was killing me. 00:49:16
OK, so I might need a little help with this, so I'll try to get. I wrote down the conditions as we were talking to. You've got 00:49:19
them, you can read them. You can read the before we make a motion. How are you feeling about this? So like the comments that we've 00:49:27
made, does that sound good? Yeah, I feel fine with it. I just liked it. Have a building permit and. 00:49:35
Time is money for sure. I'm a little unclear about the the elevation if we're. 00:49:44
If we're. 00:49:50
Being granted flexibility on the pitch of the roof yet or not, OK, I don't know. I was going to. 00:49:52
So I'm, I mean, I'm always the designer and I prefer the flat pitch roof. And Bryce expressed his opinion. I don't know if anybody 00:50:02
else. 00:50:07
Do we have a number to be or you know, like I think can we put in the record, I mean these elevations that have been provided, I 00:50:13
know they're not part of the digital submittal what you have Brian, but if they provide this? 00:50:19
Document that matches what we're looking at now I think we could say you know with what we're looking at now on paper yeah they 00:50:28
can be uploaded to the permit file and, and, and we could say that. 00:50:34
It has to be consistent with the elevations because submitted to the permit file right now. I'm OK with yeah. Is that what you 00:50:41
were saying too, Bryce? This one that's drawn up that we have in paper. Yeah, and. 00:50:49
The pitch will be, I mean, it's going to be a little bit different than this because it's going to be 3 feet in. 00:50:59
But the way it lines up with that side. 00:51:06
And it'll be a little bit steeper too. If it's shorter, the pitch will be a little bit steeper just because it's shorter and so it 00:51:12
won't have to travel that distance as much. So maybe because it's a little bit steeper, it'll be, it could potentially be cheaper. 00:51:18
I do. I do understand that that with some roofs, specifically metal roofs, if it's below a certain pitch, then you have to do 00:51:23
specific things to tie it down. 00:51:28
More structure, but I don't know how much it more it could be, but if you guys are willing to pay a nickel more for a beer. 00:51:35
Fine, we'll make it up in the long run. Cool. Yeah, yeah. And I, I don't know the percentage of what that is and but I, I think 00:51:42
that visually it makes more sense to have it as a lower pitch kind of how it is here and I. 00:51:51
So we're going to have. So yeah, I think we're going to does that. Is that clear enough that we want to do cool. 00:52:03
Hey, Jeff, you ready to make a motion? 00:52:10
Yeah, sorry. Right. And did we decide we were holding? Yeah, we're going to elevations that are provided, right. So it's different 00:52:13
from the Salvation and I'm not sure we're going to word that because it's pulled in three feet. Yeah, because it's pulled in three 00:52:17
feet, but. 00:52:22
To make it, I guess it would look the same. The exterior elevation would look the same from the east side no matter what. Even if 00:52:27
it was pulled in three feet, right, the east side exterior elevation would be the same. So I don't know how to how. 00:52:34
The pitch, the slope of that roof will be the same. It just comes in three feet. They'll tie it in at the top. I mean, the pitcher 00:52:47
will change because it's 3 feet in, so the pitch goes a little bit steeper, if that makes sense. 00:52:54
Because it's in three feet more. 00:53:01
It's the same distance going from the outside to the inside, but because it's come in the pitch gets a little bit steeper unless 00:53:03
you raise just lift the bearing point of it up a little bit more. But that's that's been issue that I don't. 00:53:11
From the existing right? Exactly, yes. 00:53:21
You guys, you understand what we're wanting you to draw, so I worded just how he said it to match the existing depth of the other 00:53:25
exterior canopy. 00:53:30
So that's the depth of the existing exterior canopy. Yeah, so. 00:53:39
If you're calling that depth, I guess. 00:53:45
This, this right here, Yeah. 00:53:48
You're saying what you see from here. Yeah. So basically you're you're east side exterior elevation would look exactly the same no 00:53:51
matter what the pitch is. 00:53:56
I'm going to try this then. OK, we're ready. 00:54:03
OK, then I move to. I don't have what the item number is here. 00:54:07
I pull that back up. 00:54:15
I can pull up on the screen. Hey, I move to approve the site plan as requested by Ryan Nichols of Nichols Naylor Architects with 00:54:17
the proposed conditions that the fence patio outdoor patio is reduced to 12 feet to allow a 36 inch minimum walkway along the 00:54:25
eastern edge of the existing sidewalk. 00:54:33
Defense Patio can extend to the north up to the northeast corner of the existing building. 00:54:42
There will be no new crosswalk extending to the east from the southeast corner. 00:54:51
Also, that the applicant revised the design that is consistent in concept with the elevation that have been provided on paper such 00:54:59
that the the canopy over the patio is a lower slope and matches the depth of the existing exterior canopy. And that the applicant 00:55:08
will submit the actual material board to staff just to ensure that the the colors tie in with the existing buildings. 00:55:17
And a site plan. 00:55:27
And a site plan. 00:55:29
And then mentioning the other conditions, staff recommended conditions, Yeah, some of these normal privacy, we're basically 00:55:31
discussing #2 and #1. 00:55:37
So it's kind of your choice. 00:55:44
So and that the applicant shall provide that first one as strategy. 00:55:48
That means fire access requirements maximize the safety and convenience of pedestrian flow around the outdoor seating area, which 00:55:53
we've addressed. 00:55:56
Meeting all the building design requirements which would address the applicant OK areas. 00:56:00
We're not dealing with that. The applicant pays any outstanding fees and makes any Red Line corrections, and the applicant is 00:56:06
subject to all federal, state and local laws. 00:56:11
OK. So just to be clear. 00:56:18
The first four. 00:56:24
I don't apply or have been addressed already in the previous conditions that you stated and then if you can read the the 5th and 00:56:27
6th one as conditions that do apply. 00:56:32
So these conditions do apply. The applicant pays any outstanding fees and makes any red line corrections, and the applicant is 00:56:38
subject to all federal, state and local laws. 00:56:43
Are we happy with that? Yeah, period. I'm happy with that. 00:56:50
We passed over the nuisance general. 00:56:56
Which I think is the noise that way you're that's a requirement. Yeah, it's a requirement. It's a requirement already. Yeah. So 00:57:00
that's code, code code enforcement. That can become a code enforcement issue regardless. So if we receive any complaints about it. 00:57:07
So. All right, Do I have a second for final second? All right, Thank you, Anthony. All in favor, is this roll caller? No. All in 00:57:14
favor. Aye. Cool. Thank you, guys. 00:57:21
We're excited about it. It's going to be cool. 00:57:29
Self self-interest questions when timeline. 00:57:31
On this, it sounds like you wanted to move quickly. Do you have target dates? 00:57:35
What will be the seating capacity or the feeding capacity of the facility? 00:57:43
Just a guess. 00:58:01
Michael. 00:58:09
Awesome. Hey, good luck. Welcome to Vineyard. Thank you, guys. Thank you guys. 00:58:11
All right. 00:58:18
So Bryce, actually. 00:58:22
Item 4.2 we're going to push to the next meeting, so we won't be discussing that one tonight. 00:58:25
No, no. So we've already noticed the public service is basically a continuance of that notification and and it's okay to move it 00:58:32
to the next one. So moving on to 4.3 then public hearing zoning text amendment for 15.32 point 230 and 15 point 38.030 ordinance 00:58:39
#2021 dash 05. 00:58:45
OK, sweet. 00:58:53
So I get some notes out real quick. 00:58:55
Thanks guys. 00:58:58
That was a complicated one back there. Yeah, yeah. I think it's good to get it. I still would like to see more lighting in that 00:59:01
alleyway, but yeah, yeah, yeah. So who would do that? The owner of the Yeah, the master developer. And that was my concern on that 00:59:08
one, was that for them improving just a 10 improvement on their space, they're not going to really have any control over the 00:59:16
applicant, you know, over that alleyway because that's on that's on the landlord. Can we put standards in for that? 00:59:23
In general, what are they? 00:59:33
In the future, in the future for lighting, for alleyways, yeah. And that alleyway, I think became more of a. 00:59:37
More, yeah, more of an entrance than I think any of us were anticipating it becoming. 00:59:48
So that's good. There's lots of traffic there, so. 00:59:53
All right. 00:59:58
OK, guys, Just I'm just pulling up this ordinance that we're going to be discussing. 00:59:59
OK, so this ordinance is to. 01:00:05
Make revisions to retaining walls and fences. That code section that treats this so just to provide you a little context, so. 01:00:10
We're we're having a lot of residents on along the Lakeshore who are trying to. 01:00:24
Have these retaining walls. 01:00:31
And this is basically for the purpose of them being able to have more usable backyard space and so. 01:00:33
Once they do get that retaining wall put on there, our code really doesn't say anything at the time. Currently to allow for a 01:00:44
fence to be put on top of the retaining wall. Right now they have to put their fences stepped back in more into their yard, thus 01:00:50
kind of removing an additional. 01:00:57
Area where they can then some more of their backyard is being removed with with what the ordinance is currently in place. So this 01:01:04
this ordinance is to help prevent that reduction in people's backyard usable backyard space and so. 01:01:15
So I'll just read the the changes here. It says retaining wall shall not exceed 6 feet in height. Fences and walls are permitted 01:01:25
to be located on top of a retaining wall and may contain an additional 6 feet in height and side and rear yards and 42 inches in 01:01:32
front yards. 01:01:40
The team wall is greater than 4 feet in height, will require a building permit, and the height is measured from the bottom of the 01:01:47
footings to the top of the wall. 01:01:52
So, yeah, so routine walls can't exceed 6 feet in height. They can't in the back and rear yards. They can't exceed 42 inches in 01:01:58
the front yards. And a retaining wall that's 4 feet in height will require a building permit, and that's measured from the bottom 01:02:05
of the footings to the top of the wall. 01:02:12
In the back, correct in the back. 01:02:20
Anything that's consistent with the surrounding environment as the code currently dictates. 01:02:24
So it seems that this is basically just concerning James Bay. 01:02:29
I mean there are a couple of other places along some of the wetlands and stuff, but but mostly James Bay. Have we gone out and 01:02:36
measured the height of the? 01:02:42
One, I know that there's one retaining wall that's already built there. Has that been measured? 01:02:48
Yeah, that one I remember we have a because I assumed that most of James Bay is going to want to, if they're going to put in a 01:02:54
retaining wall is going to want to match that. Yeah, right. And I know it's more than we're working with on that kind of that does 01:03:02
want to match that. And we're trying to figure out some issues with it because they need to bring in some infill to prevent some 01:03:09
water issues that would then occur on on the side of the fence that's. 01:03:16
Closer to the trail and so this is. 01:03:24
We are encountering that, but we're we're working on it so. 01:03:30
The existing one is more than six feet, isn't it? 01:03:35
Yeah. 01:03:39
So yeah. 01:03:46
Yeah. So it's technically not in the way of balls is separate. We're saying you have one retaining wall, then you have to step 01:03:48
back with soil and then, then, then there's another retaining wall. So approximately total height from. 01:03:54
The ground on the opposite side with the trailers to the top of their where they're finished grape would be would be about 10 to 01:04:02
12 feet depending. But again, each retaining wall is step back. So your your approximately about anywhere from 5:00 to 6:00 feet 01:04:09
each step. And how close can the steps be? 01:04:15
Like there's a six foot wall, then the step, then a six foot wall. Is there a required distance between those 26 foot walls? I 01:04:23
believe it's 4 feet. Yeah. So yeah, I mean, the way the way the way it's shown is about approximately 4 feet. I mean, they're 01:04:29
technical. The real answer would be it depends on the on the engineering designs of the closer. There are two retaining walls are 01:04:34
together. 01:04:40
Exactly. The weaker are the worst case scenario that you would have to be doing exactly. 01:04:48
I know that the four foot requirement in the building foot building code requirements because 4 foot anything about four feet 01:04:52
needs an engineer stamp on that retaining wall and so. 01:04:58
Including the footing, Yeah, including, right, the retaining portion, yeah, is whatever's. 01:05:05
Stopping Earth from moving right so. 01:05:11
OK, that we'll get to a public comment portion, I guess. 01:05:16
Recommended Google Earth, Yeah. 01:05:19
And then the sorry David, would you mind? 01:05:23
Oh, yeah. Let me, Hi, David. Let me open up a public hearing real quick. Do I drive a motion to make a motion that we open the 01:05:32
public hearing? 01:05:37
2nd promotion. All right, all in favor, aye. 01:05:42
Thanks. OK, so I'm looking at Google Earth. I'm looking at that corner lot on the North End of James Bangs. We're about we're at 01:05:46
against the park there, right. So the park and I've seen that the that corner facing the corner down by the wetlands. 01:05:55
Down as it stands down South from there it looks like there's two tiers, but you go up close with it, that's all one looks like 01:06:06
there is that So is that because part of it it would be too high given your? 01:06:12
Your inordinates. 01:06:19
But it's shorter on the North End there because the trail ramps up quite a bit. 01:06:21
Yeah, there's a short enough. My question see at the Northside is. 01:06:27
I again, I don't know there to go to the park and and so. 01:06:32
I'm sorry but what is the what is the height there when the two walls combined? Is that is that going to be over 4 foot? 01:06:41
That that that might have received a variance because the the final grade was not had not yet been determined. 01:06:49
Before they finished construction, so they had the retaining wall, but the the trail to the side wasn't yet completed and so they 01:07:00
didn't have a final grade to go off of. And so therefore they were able to exceed that height do a variance, but the rest of any 01:07:07
retaining wall that's approved moving forward here. 01:07:15
Is not is. It won't be allowed to have any dirt or or surface manipulated to increase the height of that wall. So they all it's 01:07:23
it's. 01:07:28
That's kind of like our safety measure for preventing that. 01:07:36
So just to. 01:07:41
Yeah. So for the heights on, I don't know any other heights for that specific house. But since we're passing the ordinance now, if 01:07:44
there was something that happened with that house, it would be grandfathered in. 01:07:49
I'm just looking at all the others you've got. You have fences right up against there and we have retaining walls up there now. 01:07:57
And I'm wondering if you might want to go, you might want to postpone this. Go, actually go out and measure them. And so you know 01:08:02
what you've really got, because you want people to match them and make sure what you have, even if they're grandfathered in and 01:08:07
you want to, you want me to know what they are. Just a suggestion. Yeah. 01:08:13
And that, that was my concern too, that I was talking about that I think it makes sense to match it, but. 01:08:19
If if you can do tears like somebody could essentially have a 24 foot tall retaining wall as long as it's tiered back. And so I 01:08:25
think that with that that that would get rid of anybody elses concerns in this area because I don't think it's more than. 01:08:33
And 14 feet, maybe to the very tallest. 01:08:42
Like to ground level? 01:08:47
Yeah, from the trail to the to the street. 01:08:49
Yeah, I still want to skim my knuckles and ride my bicycle down there. 01:08:54
So, yeah, yeah. 01:08:57
Yeah. So the the visible portion of the wall can't exceed 6 feet in height nor can any dirt be manipulated altered final grade 01:09:01
cannot be altered to specifically to increase the the height of the wall. So that that's a lot of I think it's like, so you mean 01:09:08
pile up the dirt and then put the wall on top of the piled up dirt? Exactly, exactly so. 01:09:16
Yeah, I don't know. I see that as the as a safety measure that would prevent. 01:09:26
That from happening, yeah, that makes sense. 01:09:30
And you are required to to engineering you all higher than 4 feet from footing from the bottom of the footing to the top. 01:09:34
Yeah. And until you have to get an engineer, it's basically just you have to pay an engineer to put a stamp on it. Yeah, yeah. 01:09:46
Make sure you use geogrid and fill it properly and that kind of stuff. Yeah, Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I learned about that the other 01:09:50
day. 01:09:54
All right. Thank you. Thanks, David. 01:10:00
Yeah, things. Thanks for coming. 01:10:03
As far as the public comment goes on this, do I close it or do I leave it open? I would close it. 01:10:06
I think, I think you can close it now. OK. Do you have any other public? 01:10:13
All right, don't have a motion to close the public comment, Move to close the public for second public comment. All in favor, aye. 01:10:19
All right, so. 01:10:23
Going back to this. 01:10:30
So it doesn't even need to. 01:10:43
I guess if it goes to engineering. 01:10:45
Why would it need a building permit as well? 01:10:48
Just to make sure that it has engineering. Cool. OK, missing you have a comment. I was gonna say because it census class wiser 01:10:52
retaining wall and kind of falls underneath the fence and it's it's allowed to be placed onto the property line. So it falls down 01:10:59
the building department because it's at in essence, it's tied to the to the building structure. OK. 01:11:07
All right. 01:11:16
So if it's above 4 feet, um. 01:11:20
Is there any specific reason that we don't want something taller than six feet? If it's engineered already, it's going to be safe. 01:11:24
So is there a reason why we're saying 6 feet is the maximum? Well, I think it it would be to prevent. 01:11:31
So like, imagine you're out there on the lakefront and there's a retaining wall that's higher than six feet. It starts to then 01:11:40
begin to create a, a, a scenario for pedestrians that isn't as inviting. And maybe they might even be like security and safety 01:11:46
issues. When you have a wall that exceeds that height, that makes sense, especially along the trails, because stuff falling off of 01:11:52
more than six feet can be a danger. 01:11:59
That too cool. 01:12:06
So that's kind of a good height. 01:12:08
Yeah, that makes sense. 01:12:10
Any other comments There were there were some other additions in the text as well, correct? Not just that paragraph, there was a 01:12:11
few others. Let me go back to it. 01:12:16
Just want to touch on all the given additions before we move forward. 01:12:22
Where am I? 01:12:28
It's so hard to see from back here. 01:12:32
And then move it. 01:12:36
That's just, oh, the board. 01:12:39
We can't show that on our feed. OK, so we have. 01:12:41
On page 9. Page 9. 01:12:46
We can use it in addition to the TV. There's, there's one, let's see, it's one on page 9. 01:12:50
We Pam and I tried earlier and. 01:13:00
I passed it. 01:13:03
All right, and L lighting. 01:13:06
And then right there, license engineer, yeah. 01:13:10
So. 01:13:15
Other joint use of parking on adjacent. 01:13:16
OK, sorry I'll just read it. So this is regarding joint youth parking. Other joint use of parking on a decent commercial uses to 01:13:20
reduce total parking spaces may be allowed with a part. Wait this is. 01:13:27
Committee, this isn't related to this. 01:13:34
I thought that was everything that we had added. 01:13:44
There. Yeah, there's another, there's another section, but sorry, I thought you were saying that there was something related to 01:13:50
the retaining wall. OK, So that one in the parking, that's an addition. Just making sure that any exceptions from a parking city 01:13:55
comes from a licensed engineer, right? 01:14:00
Not your friend, Yeah, so. 01:14:06
So the the other code section that we're treating here has to do with. 01:14:11
So in section 15.38. 01:14:18
Which is the parking and loading requirements page I believe section of the code. Sorry, there's a discrepancy with 15.36 which is 01:14:22
the site planning and design section of the code. 01:14:29
We had we had discussed this a couple planning commission's ago I think a month ago, 2 meetings ago where basically the the the 01:14:36
section having to do with parking and loading is allows for a light pole to be a maximum of 25 feet in height. And then we had a 01:14:45
discussion where the other section code allows only a 20 foot height and we had all discussed that we. 01:14:55
Were preferring or leaning more towards the 20 foot. 01:15:04
Height because we're trying to reduce light pollution. 01:15:07
We are trying to avoid light from going on to adjacent residential properties that are located next to commercial uses, and so we 01:15:14
made the correction to where those two sections of the code are consistent with each other to allow only for a maximum of 20 foot 01:15:20
high light poles. 01:15:26
And then? 01:15:35
That was that was the background on that really quick. 01:15:38
Yeah, of course, before you finalize that, we should probably make sure that our city street lights conform to that. 01:15:41
Because I our our collector Rd. streetlights are 20 foot poles. But I'm not sure I'm pulling the standard drawing up right now. 01:15:49
But you may want to make sure that we don't put ourselves to where we don't follow that code for that night. So wherever I'm not 01:15:56
sure the dimension where it sits, but. 01:16:02
The top of our to the top of our pole. 01:16:10
Is 20 foot, but then our fixture comes out on an arm and the actual fixture sticks up a little bit higher than the pole. So you 01:16:13
make that rule or change that in there to 20 foot, then you make all of our street light. 01:16:21
We'll go to 21 feet. 01:16:32
Well, if we need more time, I'm yeah, I'm fine. I don't see, I don't see the Earth continuing more the lighting. Yeah. 01:16:39
Yeah. 01:16:47
Chris, if we maybe then take a little more time to look at this one, make sure that. 01:16:48
I mean, you could. 01:16:55
Make it a bigger number. I just. 01:16:57
Insane 20 foots not going. It's gonna make all of our city standard streetlights non conforming. Do you have the exact number 01:16:59
right now? I have I have on the detail. I have the dimension to the top of the pole, but I don't have the dimension how much 01:17:06
higher the fixture sits above the pole. So I can't I can't answer the question. 01:17:13
Yeah, yeah, we can. We can. We can double check that information. 01:17:22
Yeah. And I think this other green section. 01:17:28
Is gone, accidentally filtered into there because this this was never meant to be addressed in this conversation. 01:17:32
Sometimes we start code amendments in Unicode and. 01:17:42
We forget to delete them. 01:17:47
Because they don't, they're either not relevant anymore to be treated at that, you know, at that meeting or whatever. So that 01:17:49
shouldn't be in there. I am, yeah. Sorry about that guys. 01:17:54
So yeah, I guess we can move this one to the next motion. 01:18:02
Yeah. But we could still recommend approval of the the retaining wall portion, correct? 01:18:10
Yeah. So it's we tied this into one ordinance though, OK. 01:18:18
Well then. 01:18:22
Oh yeah. Gosh. 01:18:26
Is there a reason we have to get the retaining wall? And she figured out that. 01:18:28
Hurry for this, I guess we should do it next time for straight on. So do I have a motion to move this to push this to the next 01:18:32
meeting? 01:18:37
Yeah, I make a motion to continue the public hearing for this and to get the measurements from staff on our Collector Rd. 01:18:42
lighting. I second. All in favor, Aye. All right, moving to Commission member reports. Before we go into Commission member 01:18:49
reports, just so that I remember, let's move into staff reports first. 01:18:56
I know he had some things. 01:19:07
Thank you, Planning Commission. 01:19:18
Let's see in the world engineering. 01:19:21
I just want to follow up with the last updated Planning Commission had requested in regards to the trails on the connection. 01:19:24
The last update on the trail, on the trail side elementary school trail, that's has been done as the trail has been connected but 01:19:34
hasn't been officially completed. Awaiting the contractor, awaiting the contractor to finish up the landscape at the joint 01:19:40
landscaping for final and final for the final approvals. But in essence, the project is substantially complete and is able to be 01:19:46
used by the public on that. 01:19:53
And then the other trail with the South, excuse me, the sunset park down on the connection. 01:20:00
Staff is working with the developer to finalize the. 01:20:07
Finalize the items in regards to the canal alignment, but the trail on that would be as part as part of the canal alignment and we 01:20:13
expect that that trial will be fully connected. 01:20:19
Within anywhere from 4, four or six months maximum depending on that one is a little bit is more complex due to the fact that the 01:20:28
canal realignment is requires a rockery wall, you know, AKA retaining wall. 01:20:35
Along that side as well. 01:20:42
So it's more requires more work on the contractor side. So we expect it to be before then and the end of the calendar year that 01:20:44
should be 100% complete on that. In addition to the to that update and update it or actually notice the Planning Commission in 01:20:52
regards to the trail side elementary school with the trail side elementary school coming coming alive. 01:21:00
Without coming to school here, I would say staff has requested the implemented and conducted excuse me tonight, today. 01:21:09
Warrant study for a school zone along that area. Warren said it came back that it warranted a school zone and say staff is going 01:21:15
to be moving forward with the City of Organs to establish a school zone. Speed limits, reduce speed limits along that area and 01:21:24
putting the appropriate control devices as well and that would be that would be along the linear group and Vineyard Rd. 01:21:33
Will there be additional crossing that they're put in without technically? 01:21:42
All intersections are crossings, but yes, the staff will be placing a crosswalk, a marked crosswalk along the at the intersection 01:21:49
of Vineyard rather than Vineyard Blueprint and then placing the appropriate control devices to identify that as a school zone. 01:21:58
And then the warning devices for the cars approaching as well. Great. 01:22:07
Awesome. Thank you. Anything from engineering? 01:22:14
Public works, Public works. I mean, yeah, I don't have anything specific unless you have questions for me or anything going on. 01:22:19
All right. Oh, actually I did. I was going to say one thing. So I know that Center Street is being. 01:22:27
Redone and will need to be repainted. Just a suggestion on the sharrows. They're they were previously with a right tire of a 01:22:35
vehicle would go over which would wear them out quicker. Also many cars drive as if they intend for the cyclist to only be able to 01:22:42
ride on that right side and. 01:22:49
They take the sharing of the lane very literally and try to share it both at the same time. So my recommendation would be, I don't 01:22:57
know what the codes are and what you need to follow, but if you could put it in the middle, I think it the paint would last 01:23:03
longer. And it also might indicate that if there's a bike there that that whole lane can be used by the bike just. 01:23:09
We'll definitely take that into consideration. 01:23:15
Ultimately, we refer to the MATCD. Yeah, Yeah. I'm not sure what those say, but if it allows for it, I would. Yeah. If it allows 01:23:18
for us to shift it, it makes sense to get out of the wheel path. It lasts longer, it'll stay more visible. So if we can do that, 01:23:23
we'll do that. Great. Thank you. 01:23:28
All right, any Commission member reports or expected discussion disclosure? 01:23:35
Nothing. All right. Do I have a motion to adjourn? 01:23:41
I will make a motion to adjourn. I have a second. I'll second all in favor. 01:23:47
You guys have a good night. 01:23:54
Hey. 01:23:57
Thank you. 01:24:00
Oh, OK. 01:24:04
OK, OK. We'll, we'll make that change on the July 2nd. 01:24:07

All right. 00:01:33
So. 00:01:36
Going to move into an open session. If you if there's any public that has any comments that they would like to make, keep it in 3 00:01:38
minutes, just come up here to the stand I. 00:01:42
And yeah. 00:01:47
Any public. 00:01:50
No, All right. I will move into minutes for review and approval as you guys have a chance to take a look over that over the 00:01:52
minutes. 00:01:56
I wasn't here in the meeting, so I. 00:02:04
Abstaining. 00:02:06
Jeff, I did not look at that. OK, Amber, I read through them. I didn't listen to the audio. We just need to read through. 00:02:08
Right. Yeah, yeah. Read through the minutes, the audio, but it's pretty, you know, that that happened. OK, Yes, I did read. I did 00:02:17
read through it. So I make a motion to, what do I say, approve the minutes from July 7th, from July 7th, July 2nd. 00:02:26
I'll second all in favor. Aye, aye. All right, moving into business Item 4.1 that about Times site plan. 00:02:35
OK, my name is Brian Maya Perez. I serve as a city planner here. 00:02:46
So the applicant, his name is Ryan Naylor, he's with Nichols Naylor architect and we're going to be looking at. 00:02:52
The Bout Time Pub and Grub site plan application proposal and more specifically the the exterior extension of a dining area. 00:03:03
So yeah, just jump right into it. So this is right here in this location is where the where the. 00:03:15
Restaurant will be locating. The address is 568 Mill Road and it's directly West of the Megaplex Theater as you can see. 00:03:24
So this application first started as a commercial TI, but then a site plan application was triggered due to these exterior the 00:03:35
exterior dining element of it. So we processed that through a through a site plan application. 00:03:41
This application is interesting because as you know this This site is. 00:03:51
Has already been approved as a through master development development agreement. So there are elements that we won't be discussing 00:03:55
in this because they've already been talked about and approved in a in a previous Planning Commission, but we will be talking 00:04:01
about. 00:04:06
That canopy and specific and kind of the effects that that canopy could that dining area can have on the surrounding environment. 00:04:13
Umm, so as you know this area is zoned RMU and so that's to provide a mix of uses daytime and night time and it's supposed to 00:04:22
facilitate commercial office and and potentially residential as well. 00:04:28
So let me show you some pictures. That glare's not letting me through. My tabs are but. 00:04:37
Show some pictures of. 00:04:43
The proposal here. 00:04:46
So the restaurant will be located here and this is where the the outdoor seating area is being proposed. 00:04:49
So they're going to add about 15 tables if I'm not wrong, and that that area will measure. So the canopy is 15 feet in height, 10 00:05:00
inches. The length is about 55 feet one and 1/4 inch. The width is 15 feet 3 inches and it will all be enclosed by a three foot. 00:05:13
Steel fence. 00:05:28
It won't be. 00:05:30
It won't be like totally enclosed or there's like walls and things. It's just a rail and then it'll you can see through it 00:05:33
basically and then they'll be the dining tables. 00:05:38
So we, we definitely do like when developers propose this, this sort of project because. 00:05:45
It provides an opportunity to really engage that space to provide a lot of visual interest. 00:05:52
And. 00:06:00
And it really enhances the sense of human scale and provides that vibrancy that we want to see in a lot of development. We just 00:06:00
want to make sure that. 00:06:04
Any sort of elements that we see that could cause concerns are properly addressed and and we really do believe that that the 00:06:10
applicant does does want to. 00:06:16
Work towards that. And so they're here to to answer any questions that that you guys might have. 00:06:24
Just a little bit more on the site plan. 00:06:31
As you see. 00:06:33
This The outdoor seating area will not allow an pedestrian flow to go on on on this sidewalk any longer. But. 00:06:37
The applicant is maintaining fire access by providing A5 foot clearance. 00:06:51
For pedestrians just South of the of that seating area and of course there's an alternative route through the other sidewalk 00:06:57
facility that has been provided. 00:07:03
They're also proposing. 00:07:11
A so this I'm going to zoom in a little bit, this area here between the rail so this dark line around the edge is that 3 foot rail 00:07:15
that they're proposing and there's. 00:07:21
There's they're leaving about a 5 foot pedestrian clearance for access. They're providing an ADA ramp here that will lead into 00:07:28
this new painted crosswalk and it will terminate here at this existing ADA aisle. 00:07:37
In the stock report, I expressed concerns about the termination of this crosswalk at this ADA access aisle, but in speaking with. 00:07:48
With Morgan and with George in the building department there, they don't have any concerns with that. So we can ignore those 00:07:59
comments from the staff report regarding that. But there is a section of the code that reads that. Let me find it here. 00:08:09
I'm just going to pull it up here in the code. 00:08:25
Or in the. 00:08:28
Conditions. 00:08:30
OK. It says areas where pedestrian walkways cross driveways shall be constructed of stamped and or raised concrete or of other 00:08:36
material and design so as to differentiate the areas of pedestrian vehicle interface. So I personally. 00:08:44
As you can see, the other crosswalks throughout the development do meet the standard. And so that's one thing that I wanted to 00:08:54
make sure of in this discussion is that this, this crosswalk, however it is finalized that it does meet that that requirement. So 00:09:02
I, I would like to see something that comes a little closer to this. 00:09:10
So that's that's my concern there. 00:09:20
Regarding. 00:09:24
The the materiality of the canopy itself. Let me pull up the elevation here. 00:09:27
So, umm. 00:09:36
The applicant has provided some visual cues, but we typically have applicants provide a, what we call materials board that 00:09:39
actually shows the the actual elements, construction elements that are on there, the, the, the metal pieces, the, I don't know, 00:09:45
the trimming pieces, the brick that's going to be used. So we we did not receive that from the applicant, but we did receive this, 00:09:52
which does show some. 00:09:58
Elements of what's being constructed here. 00:10:06
And so pardon me. 00:10:08
They're showing a metal roofing here that's going to be colored a charcoal Gray and they're also showing. 00:10:11
A gauntlet, Gray steel for for the railing and a few other elements on the canopy. 00:10:20
In in. 00:10:28
The applicant Ryan also sent me this which provides a little bit more color. 00:10:30
And then I also received. 00:10:37
This picture I'm pulling up another picture. 00:10:41
This picture of another location, I believe this is your, did you say American Fork West Jordan, a location in West Jordan that 00:10:46
is, is designed very similarly though ours, the one that they're proposing here in Vineyard is going to be a slightly different 00:10:52
color. It's going to be a darker Gray color, if I'm not wrong. And so this is kind of gives you a little bit more of a visual cue 00:10:58
as to what what they're proposing. 00:11:05
What they're doing here isn't going to have the brick wall. No, no, it won't have the brick wall. 00:11:12
Well, but it will, it will have these footings, right? 00:11:19
OK, OK. Just Combs. OK. 00:11:24
All right, so just the railing then? 00:11:27
So we, we needed to get you get your opinion, the, the Commission's opinion on, on, on the materiality and design of this. I want 00:11:34
to make sure that the applicant is meeting all of our requirements. 00:11:42
But. 00:11:52
We just needed some further assistance from you guys to see if if you guys would would be alright with with this proposed design. 00:11:53
Do you guys have any questions regarding what they're proposing? 00:12:04
Anybody have any questions? 00:12:10
I do. I do. 00:12:12
First, Brian, on the site plan there was a a symbol on that plan that I assume showing up from the civil. 00:12:14
Site Planet, that like a light fixture? That's not a light fixture or something right in that aisle for the 88 parking stall. This 00:12:24
right here, yeah. 00:12:28
That's not that's something underground or something, right? 00:12:35
But it's in the wrong location. 00:12:39
OK, OK. 00:12:42
OK. 00:12:44
But it's not in that spot. There's not an existing. It shows up in the plan. But the way it was built, it's not in that location. 00:12:46
Sorry. Can you can you come to the microphone? Thank you, Ryan. 00:12:51
And I knew you can introduce yourself. Ryan Taylor Nichols, Naylor Architects. 00:12:57
Yeah, the I received this CAD file from the original architect for the development and. 00:13:05
There's a difference between the way that those stalls were installed and how that is represented. The spacing slightly different, 00:13:11
so there's no conflict with the. 00:13:16
With the access aisle there so. 00:13:21
OK, Yeah, we're just looking at in Google Earth. It looks like it's close, but it's not complex. So as long as that's not in 00:13:27
conflict, obviously that would be. 00:13:30
A problem, right? If the access ran into a light pole? 00:13:35
OK. Yeah. I just want to ask about that. But I mean, I think otherwise for me personally is the blocking of the access along that 00:13:41
sidewalk. 00:13:45
I'm not. 00:13:50
Too terribly concerned with I think the crossing is a little clunky, but I realize there's not a lot of options of other ways to 00:13:52
do that. I think the site has enough circulation in other places around it and I think the benefit of having outdoor dining on 00:13:59
that sidewalk is it that's a positive to have people out there and have that life on the street. So I don't have any concerns 00:14:07
about that. What I do have concerns with and sorry if I. 00:14:14
Away from the mic on the elevations and the way the way it looks in the plants is that it it, it really looks like it's an add-on, 00:14:22
like it's an afterthought from the original building rather than integrating architecturally with with the existing building. 00:14:31
Looks like something that was tacked on as a as a patio. 00:14:40
Because. 00:14:50
It, it's, it's pretty bare bones and then the pitch on the roof, you know, there's no other sloped roof elements on these 00:14:51
buildings. And so it's a very foreign, it's bringing in architectural pieces. They're very foreign to the building. 00:14:59
So my my concern is just that it's going to look like a. 00:15:08
An afterthought and is not tying in necessarily with the rest of the development color wise. Ideally it would be nice to see what 00:15:12
those colors look like next to the existing. However, they're both Gray, the dark Gray, and a lighter Gray, so it'll probably be 00:15:18
fine. 00:15:24
But I think for me that's that's my biggest concern is. 00:15:31
It's not really tying in any way the existing building. 00:15:35
So to address those questions, umm. 00:15:41
So the side of that building, it's a little some challenges there. You know, we this wasn't just like. 00:15:44
You know, we just stuck it on the side. There wasn't any thought there. You know, if you look at the top line, we were trying to 00:15:50
line it up with the heads of the windows and then the the lower line was intended to line up with the canopy next to it. When you 00:15:56
look at it, there's those brick Piers that go up like part of the way. So if we were to, you know, try and line it up with that 00:16:02
main canopy there, you basically run into the, into the kind of like you have about 18 inches of that brick pier sticking up above 00:16:08
the roof. 00:16:14
Your comment is one that the developer brought up to us. Also he was concerned about the sloping roof. So I I have an option 00:16:21
that's. 00:16:26
Flatter, so it basically lines up with that entry canopy. I mean, I can give that to you if you want to see that. We'll see what 00:16:32
that looks like. Yeah, I think that would be, that would be great. 00:16:37
So there's version. 00:16:46
It shows it on the side elevation. 00:16:57
Which direction? 00:17:02
So towards it's sloping down towards the movie theater East East. 00:17:03
So this this space is the drive aisle. 00:17:09
Day on, Yeah. 00:17:15
It's more about weather. 00:17:18
Yeah, I mean. 00:17:27
Personally I, you know, pass these down unless you guys have the same thing we have. 00:17:29
I think the lower lower slope I think. 00:17:37
Personally I I would prefer that option. I think it. 00:17:43
Even though it's not identical, you know it will have some slope. It won't look exactly like the the metal canopy that's on the 00:17:46
corner. I think it'll be less distracting as a as a new element and that people fit in a little bit better. 00:17:54
Does anyone else on the Commission have any comments? Another question, so the main entrance is on the north side, correct? Yeah, 00:18:05
the the doors on the South of those exit only or how does that work? 00:18:11
On the backside of the building, South end, Yeah, those are just be, you know, for deliveries or for backup house kind of kitchen. 00:18:17
Yeah, OK. 00:18:21
They're not using, there's like 3 doors or something on there that are actually going to be essentially covered up. There's only 00:18:26
going to be 1 door that's utilized on the back. OK because I know another restaurant in that area actually uses that backside for 00:18:33
an entry. Transcendent. The only reason I was asking is whether you want it to happen or not. People will walk around the patio in 00:18:39
the street. Hopefully no one's driving more than 5 miles an hour anyway, but like. 00:18:46
That will happen, I mean, whether it's designed for that or not. So I just wonder if there was back entrance. 00:18:54
No, there's not planned on being an entrance there. 00:19:00
It's a good point though that people might overflow. I mean the the parking stalls in the middle. 00:19:03
Threat of that metal Dr. aisle. The angled parking is usually pretty folks and a lot of its 88 parking. So a lot of people that 00:19:09
come to this development park behind the yeah South in that overflow that ends up being kind of the primary parking. That was part 00:19:16
of my observation. I went over there and spent about an hour and a half today just watching. 00:19:23
Pedestrian flow. 00:19:31
And I took it a little sample, informal sample. There were 24 people in the course of an hour and a half who parked behind the 00:19:34
building and walked north. Now, if I recall my numbers, 12 of them went toward the theater, so they kind of angled off toward the 00:19:44
theater. But the other 12, about 50%, walked up that sidewalk and went into the shop, that little shopping area. 00:19:53
Now that's just a very simple sample midday. 00:20:04
But I'm very concerned about blocking pedestrian traffic. 00:20:07
They're up that sidewalk. That's one of my biggest concerns is because the only place I'll have to walk in is in the street. If 00:20:11
they continue parking behind the building and wanting to access that little part of that little, yeah, they'll have to go around. 00:20:18
And. 00:20:26
I'm just wondering if there aren't other options. I looked the ice cream place there has put out benches in the in the sidewalk. 00:20:28
They look like they're movable portable benches. I understand that's not a dining area and ice cream is different than meals and 00:20:34
and I'm wondering what would be opening up for other restaurants. The only one across the street just to the north, the umami. Is 00:20:40
that what it's called restaurant? 00:20:46
They have a similar situation sidewalk just to their east. 00:20:54
And if they were to come in for a request to do such, we would be hard pressed not to allow them to do that if we went ahead and 00:20:59
approved this one. 00:21:03
Yep, Yep. Brian, along those lines, had this come in initially with, with the canopy there, would, would our requirements have 00:21:08
been to have a, a walkway around it or how, how would that have worked? You know what I mean? Like if this came in fresh, 00:21:15
nothing's there and then you're building this with a patio on it, we would require a sidewalk. Is that how that would work? I 00:21:23
believe so. I mean, if you need to look into it a little bit more, that's right. No, but I think that's right, yeah. And. 00:21:30
Nodding it over there, I think that's correct. 00:21:38
So I'm just, you know, that's, that's my main. I love the idea of outside eating. I really do. I'm wondering if there aren't 00:21:41
options though, that you could accomplish the same purpose without taking the entire sidewalk. 00:21:48
Or if there's something that could be done in the street way right there. 00:21:55
To allow for a little bumper zone, you know, to like you see in some neighborhoods where there's a little bumper in the street 00:22:00
that. 00:22:04
Blocks off another two or three feet so that people can walk there. Are you talking like a bollard? Like I'm not sure what they're 00:22:08
called, One of those posts? No, it's not a post. It's just a concrete thing in the street that sets off a little bit of area. I 00:22:15
don't know. That's as I looked at this. I love the concept, I really do, but I'm just wondering if there aren't some options 00:22:23
without taking that whole. What is it? An 8 foot wide sidewalk? It's 15 feet wide. 15 feet wide. 00:22:30
Taking that whole thing yet 15 by three to five. 00:22:38
Without taking that whole sidewalk for eating. 00:22:42
I mean, obviously we're trying to find the correct balance between getting comfortable tables for our, you know, our occupants and 00:22:48
getting patio space. So the more tables we can get out there the better. And then we also have to balance that with some 00:22:54
requirements that we have for the DABC of fencing that area. And so it has to be an enclosed area. We can't just have it, you 00:23:01
know, more open. 00:23:07
You know, I'm just wondering, could could 10 feet accomplish some of the same purpose without taking all 15 feet and therefore 00:23:14
allowing three to four to five feet still for pedestrian traffic up and down the north-south corridor? Just just thoughts because 00:23:21
I'm concerned about pedestrian access into that little mall type area there. 00:23:28
Because most of the people I saw and I didn't notice who was parking in the angled parking lots, but those that I saw were parking 00:23:36
behind the building on the South side and walking north. 00:23:42
Engineering. Do you guys have any input on this? 00:23:49
Nothing at all engineering so in regards to the requirements that the applicant needs to meet in order to for the permits for the 00:23:57
for being able to serve there. 00:24:02
When they attempt on what they're trying to do needs that in regards to the accessibility for the sidewalk on that it comes down 00:24:08
to. 00:24:12
Providing the points of access, points of access to allow people across. I mean the the complex is a shopping complex with load so 00:24:19
low speeds and with backward lighting on that and also the intent of the what was provided here. 00:24:29
By the applicant means the attempted purposes with the provider for the existing infrastructure and structure as well. So I mean 00:24:39
in regards to our, our, our, excuse me, in regards to what was provided in our opinions as to what was provided me so intent. 00:24:48
What are your feelings on like a safer buffer zone of like a walk area along there where car traffic wouldn't be, Even if it's 00:24:59
just kind of a little bit of a shoulder there, I don't know if you want to encourage that or discourage that one. 00:25:06
It comes down to how it's applied, but and then of course you factor in the human factor into everything on that when you start 00:25:13
restricting the car access of on that area like on a buffer on the street pretty much where. 00:25:21
What's going to happen is you're causing. You're putting conflict at the top of conflict on top of conflict. 00:25:29
So if you allow the, allow that area to be again. 00:25:34
Vehicle or traffic as is as is assigned and then you have your pedestrian access points to the north of the crosswalks to the 00:25:41
north of it or established one in your choosing to place another investment crosswalk along the southern part. You know proper I 00:25:48
want to say signalization, but proper assignment will allow that for there to be. 00:25:56
A identification for pedestrian areas. So you think I'm sorry. I wish I again, in my opinion would probably meet downtown. But if 00:26:06
you're starting to put barriers into the road. 00:26:11
With well probably end up happening will be causing conflict for vehicle or traffic without the regards of pedestrian. 00:26:19
So you think it was designed well enough that we can have this sort of access? 00:26:27
Or have this sort of design and it's the traffic is slow enough and it's pedestrian friendly enough, but this would be OK. 00:26:33
With proper signage and things and we shouldn't be adding a bunch of elements. Is that kind of what you're saying? 00:26:41
OK, there we go. I thought you had question down so. 00:26:50
Excuse me, Yeah. What was what's present? What's presented is that. 00:26:55
On that I mean entry when you start adding more. 00:26:59
More control, more devices, more barriers into the into the into vehicle error traffic tends to cause more conflicts at times. So 00:27:04
the way that's presented me sometime in with the Aqua and again when it comes down to pedestrian safety, this is not a not a. 00:27:14
Corridor for vehicles to get from north to South and east to West and where the vehicle air speed is, is intent to be low as well. 00:27:25
So again, crosswalks are intended to allow safe passage for pedestrians and but. However, we all know that pedestrians shall find 00:27:36
an easiest, shortest point or path to point A to point B. 00:27:41
Well, but for my observation, you're still going to have people walking along the North S route, but they just won't be walking on 00:27:48
a sidewalk. They'll be walking in the road and it is a pub. There will be alcohol served. I'm wondering about impairment of 00:27:55
walking perhaps. I don't know if it's going to get to that point, but I'm just really concerned about the pedestrian movement 00:28:02
North and South right there for that 55 foot stretch. 00:28:09
And I think we need to be really thinking about what we can do to safeguard. 00:28:17
Any potential pedestrian automobile conflict right there? And granted, cars don't drive faster usually. 00:28:21
But I'm not sure that they obey the 5 miles an hour I didn't today. 00:28:31
Prohibit through traffic walking through that gated area. 00:28:37
You're saying if the gate was open and yeah, you can't do that. It's not prohibited, OK. 00:28:42
You, you might have, you might have said this earlier, the main entrance on that north side in these three bays, where is the main 00:28:54
entrance to the restaurant going to be? It's going to be on that North East corner, right there under northeast corner. 00:29:01
Because what I was thinking is maybe you know if. 00:29:11
I see your point now, Tim and I, I agree and so. 00:29:15
I wonder if it's not better, you know, if if you could and I realize you can't move the roof canopy. You only have so much 00:29:21
coverage with the roof canopy because the the existing canopy that's there being in conflict. So you're not gaining, you're going 00:29:27
to lose some of your covered seating area. But if if you brought your seating area forward further north, you know, around that 00:29:34
corner so that even some of that outdoor seating, patio seating is engaged more on that. 00:29:41
Central promenade area and picked up more space there. I realize it's not going to be a one for one trade, but you know, I could 00:29:49
see allowing more space up there, stretching it to the north a little bit, but picking up that. 00:29:55
48 inches or five feet. 00:30:03
As a as a walkway along the curb, between the fence and the curb. 00:30:06
It seems to be more protected on that north side. 00:30:13
For pedestrians, because you have the angular parking, angular space and other restaurants, at least the ice cream place, that's 00:30:17
kind of done that. They've moved outside a little bit on the South side of their building, but. 00:30:24
I don't know if what you're still trying to accomplish, but I like that idea. 00:30:31
So my my thoughts that I was just going to share real quick is definitely for giving up the full sidewalk. I think it's very 00:30:40
reasonable to require the same. 00:30:45
Crossing that are already in, just have that on the South side and I think it's just the stamped concrete, but something that ties 00:30:51
in exactly the same as those other ones. That was like design elements I have no issues with whatsoever. 00:30:59
I think it's great that it's coming in and I'd love to see it sooner rather than later. But yeah, the crossing is my only 00:31:07
question. So anything we could do to discourage people walking in the street, I don't know if it's extending the railing a little 00:31:11
further or, you know, pointing them, you know, if you if you need to go back this way across the crosswalk or go around the 00:31:16
alleyway, I don't know what it is. But no matter what you do, I mean, I think people are going to do whatever's convenient for 00:31:21
them, so. 00:31:25
And to be clear, there's plenty of jaywalking going on there currently, right? Like, it's not. It's not. Yeah. It's like this is 00:31:31
something that's never been seen over there. 00:31:36
A couple of my comments. I agree that the crosswalk needs to match the other crosswalks. It was something that when we talked 00:31:43
about this whole area that was kind of a particular point. Another thing if. 00:31:49
If it gets approved where the sidewalk on that side closes, then I think that it's important that the alleyway that goes in 00:31:56
between the two buildings. 00:32:00
Has better lighting has, is more welcoming because it looks like an alleyway on that side right now. And if you look at it on 00:32:04
Google Maps, there's like no lighting on that entrance there. And it just seems like you're not supposed to go in this way. If 00:32:10
that became something where it's like, oh, this is more welcoming. This is the way your Aussies go. Like if there was some kind of 00:32:16
design elements there, they were like, OK, this is this is obviously the way to go and more people would flow through that way. 00:32:22
But right now it's it's very much not. 00:32:28
There's a power box and just all the power boxes for all the buildings. There's no design elements, no lighting. So I think that 00:32:34
if that E sidewalk was closing, then that W sidewalk alleyway needs to be much more inviting. So I think with what you're saying 00:32:42
about, you know, that you brought up about letting us extend it a little bit further to north and let me have my client, Tim talk 00:32:49
to him about whether or not. 00:32:57
Fine with. 00:33:04
You know, having a three foot walkway, I mean basically all you would need to meet ADA is a three foot wide, you know, section of 00:33:06
sidewalk with five foot, you know, sections at each end to meet ADA. So if we move the fence over three feet I think. 00:33:14
It's still leaving, okay. 00:33:24
Tim, will you please introduce yourself to the microphone? Tim Ryan, owner, About Time Pub and Grab. 00:33:27
So how about this? 00:33:33
That, I think, ties the whole thing up with a neat bow. 00:33:37
It's a 15 foot concrete span right now. 00:33:40
We'll take the patio back to 12. 00:33:47
Leaving the three foot access for pedestrians that will address this concern. 00:33:49
Remove the crosswalk, right, And so give up on the crosswalk. It's no longer necessary because it's not replacing anything that's 00:33:56
been taken away. You don't have to deal with lighting. 00:34:01
Give us an approval that gives us the option to extend the patio around that corner as was suggested. Not sure we want to do that. 00:34:09
I think there's. 00:34:14
Complications there. There's also, there's a fire pit out there, right, that's on the corner that I don't know if we really want 00:34:21
to work around, but at least give us the option to explore that and then perhaps leave us with the roof as proposed at our option. 00:34:28
I will go back to the developer. I have no heartburn whether it's on an angle or flat, but it will be considerably more expensive 00:34:36
if we're required to. 00:34:43
Adjust the pitch, but if the developer wants to pitch that way. 00:34:52
I'm sure he'd be happy to pay for it. 00:34:57
To clarify, you're saying that the flatter option is considerably more expensive, It will be more expensive. I don't, I don't have 00:34:59
a dollar amount on that yet because that was an issue that just came up with the manufacturer today and they said, Oh yeah, we can 00:35:04
of course do that, but it's it's more. 00:35:08
But fine. And then, you know, as far as the colors go, umm. 00:35:14
For that part, we're planning to at this point match, there's some Gray vertical siding that's already on that. 00:35:20
Building, you see it as you're, you know, driving down the street. It's fine. It's not our prototype color, but. 00:35:29
This is not a space where that awning is in any way an advertisement, you know, it's on a non St. facing side and so on and so 00:35:36
forth. But if you guys feel good about working with us on those conditions, we feel fine about it and. 00:35:43
Wrap it up. Must get thing built. 00:35:50
So if if we were to go north, letting them go north. 00:35:57
How would we want to go about that kind of looking at the roof that's currently there, the fire pit that's I think it's just it's 00:36:03
a non covered extension of the patio space, but the roof has to I think the roof there awning stops where the existing I agree 00:36:11
with canopy is at the corner, because I think that's complicated. So we could simply continue the metal rail, right? And that's 00:36:18
just not a rainy day space, which they have right like right now if you look. 00:36:26
Elevation of that side, on that east side, you'll see that the railing on the ground floor goes past the covered roof portion, so 00:36:34
there's already some portion of that patio space uncovered. 00:36:40
Yeah, I'd be, it seems to make sense, like as long as it didn't extend any further north than the frontage of the building there, 00:36:46
I don't see why that would cause any issue personally. Yeah, and I think that eliminates the back door concern as well. I feel 00:36:52
much better about having a sidewalk access. Yeah. And, and for our purposes, we're going to narrow those existing. They're still 00:36:58
showing on the old plan, but there's three entrances because that space was designed that it could be demised in the three 00:37:04
businesses. 00:37:10
We're going to have one main door. 00:37:17
There and not use the back door. She's a better control point, you know, to monitor customers and if you're checking ID's and so 00:37:19
on and so forth, it's better. 00:37:23
Control point. 00:37:29
OK, so not speaking for everyone here, but I think that yeah, if you do the 12 foot. 00:37:33
A 12 foot roof leaving that 3 foot area and I think that we're fine with how it is and extending the fence at least to the front 00:37:42
face of the building, we're fine with that as well. 00:37:48
Right my. 00:37:55
As long as that's not against any the the canopy doesn't can. Yeah, yeah, right. I think what Anthony said, I think we extend the 00:37:57
patios that. 00:38:02
Fenced off patio space, provided that we maintain, you know, pedestrian clearances and stuff like that around it, like we are on 00:38:09
the one side. 00:38:13
OK. 00:38:20
Otherwise, I think I think the materials look good. 00:38:22
It would be nice to see them, of course, but it's it's pretty basic and I think that we get a pretty solid idea of that. 00:38:26
Any other comments? No, no. 00:38:36
Up there now. 00:38:41
So we won't add, I think that's, I think it's better, yeah. Then we don't have that. 00:38:44
Brian, could we put in a condition? 00:38:50
To have staff approve materials Board still take a look at that. 00:38:54
Yeah, I think so. 00:39:00
Yeah. 00:39:07
You know, we'll get with that information. Yeah, I just wouldn't want to have to. I'm thinking of ways that we could move it 00:39:08
forward without having to come back to this stuff. 00:39:12
Must be provided a material works yeah to match to match existing. 00:39:17
OK. 00:39:24
So I know I was this particular that brought up the flat roof thing and it's not, that's not a hill I'm going to die on. And we 00:39:27
don't have any code reason to enforce that. I I'm not sure why it would come back that much more expensive, but. 00:39:34
You know, I would prefer the flatter roof, but that's not. 00:39:42
If that's not going to work, I'd rather have the walkway like we're talking about too anyway, so I'm indifferent to it honestly, 00:39:47
you know? 00:39:52
But again, it'll just be a point of dollars at that point. We'll be giving up some dollars and seating, you know future revenue. 00:39:59
And in this business and particularly now anywhere you can pick it up, it sure is fine. But I but if the developer chooses, you 00:40:05
know to take in a little bit and they're great guys. 00:40:11
But you know, they maybe. 00:40:18
The code does call for consistency in design. So I don't think it's too outlandish in my opinion to require that it does look and 00:40:21
match what's around it. That's exactly what the code calls for actually. Well, and a shorter going from 15 to 12 feet, I mean, the 00:40:26
pitch is going to change probably from your, you are going to save some steel on those supports and you're going to, I mean the, 00:40:32
the lower pitch roof your columns in the back. And I guess I'm not sure how you're attaching it with its concert to the building, 00:40:38
but. 00:40:44
They're a little shorter, so. 00:40:50
There, there should be some some savings. I mean, is it going to be like a membrane and fully enclosures? It's just a metal just 00:40:53
to shed the roof. Yeah, I'm not sure why that would come back more expensive. 00:40:59
But umm. 00:41:05
That's I just have to pay for it. I understand your position. I I know your position, right? 00:41:07
This is a very small thing, but if it were inclined. 00:41:14
And it were raining, all the rain would run down onto the pedestrians, right? It has an integrated. Yeah, that's a good point. 00:41:18
Of that patio that happens to be 3 feet in it so when it comes down. 00:41:32
I know I just wouldn't want to walk down there. 00:41:39
So Tim, just so I understand because so basically this is going to be brought back to 12 feet, there's going to be a three foot 00:41:43
clearance here to meet minimum ADA requirements. 00:41:48
And then the the rail here is going to, is it going to wrap around this northern side of the building and then terminate somewhere 00:41:54
within your terminate? 00:41:59
Back you see that? 00:42:07
There's a right right there. OK, maximum. 00:42:10
Terminate there. 00:42:19
It's over toward the parking. 00:42:22
Kind of where that parking is at an angle, it's kind of in there and it would have quite a bit of clearance to us. 00:42:27
And I'm not sure that we'll go around that corner, but we like the flexibility to do it if we get back to looking at it makes 00:42:36
sense. 00:42:38
Do we can move through? Do we want that minimum of three feet or? 00:42:43
Because looking at just looking at the map. 00:42:51
If this is kind of the access for people coming from that direction to the. 00:42:54
Yeah, just looking, would you like me to put anything on the screen price? 00:43:00
Sure. Yeah. If you if you could just bring up Google Maps, yeah. 00:43:05
And kind of just show that corner. 00:43:08
So naturally these little fire pit areas. 00:43:24
And to be gathering places if there's waiting for any restaurants. And so I worry about if we're extending, if we're extending it 00:43:28
out far and there's only three feet between the fence and that fire pit. And that's going to be a congestion area. Yeah. Because 00:43:36
you can't really go around on the north side of that fire pit. It's kind of just. 00:43:43
There, so I worry about that. 00:43:53
Yes, yes, I worry about if the fence is coming up so close to this and that's. 00:44:00
I don't think that we'd have a problem with just tying it back to the corner of the building. That would be great that that's fine 00:44:05
that the. 00:44:09
Last time I was there, somebody had hit that fire pit with a vehicle and it has a huge crack in it. So I'm not sure. I'm sure it's 00:44:14
going to be repaired and replaced, but. 00:44:20
To me, I'm not sure why it's there, but you can see the drain, right? 00:44:26
Running on that sidewalk so we'll just. 00:44:30
That's the three feet. And then even like as a future idea, not something that we're approving right now, but I think it could be 00:44:32
cool to even have some space in that northern area dedicated to dining, adding a roof area and having some. 00:44:40
Some space on the Northside. 00:44:48
In the future, but not near the entrance. Just a thought though. 00:44:51
You're saying further further West of the entrance but on that N patio like a separate? 00:44:57
The main door will be here, next one over. 00:45:05
There. 00:45:11
OK. 00:45:13
So, yeah, if you're fine with us approving it as the fence going to just that front corner, yeah, that's fine. Then I, I, I think 00:45:15
we could prove something like that. 00:45:20
OK, I'm just trying to. 00:45:27
Put together all the notes of everything you've discussed. Sorry. So it was the three foot on the east side. 00:45:28
The. 00:45:38
No crosswalk. The fence, The lower 3 foot fence would go to the corner of the northeast the northeast corner of the building. 00:45:40
At least looking from an east elevation, exterior elevation. 00:45:53
That I think. I think I agree that the lower pitch. 00:45:58
Makes more sense for this area. 00:46:04
I would think that we should make it a requirement personally. 00:46:09
Is there any opposition to that? 00:46:15
All right. So you have design, consistent design consistency of the lower pitched roof. I think the lower pitch rather than the 00:46:18
steeper pitch makes more sense for the area. 00:46:22
And I think that's it. 00:46:29
Then if there needs to be approval of material boards, if we don't have to come back to the Planning Commission, yeah, yeah. So I 00:46:31
would like to say that an updated site plan and materials board needs to be provided to staff. 00:46:38
Along with that, yeah. And then the last, the very last. 00:46:47
Topic that I want to touch on is so nuisances with like sound, only 65 decibels are permitted at any time of day from the 00:46:51
restaurant. So just to prevent any possible, you know, noise that is inappropriate. 00:47:00
You know, that's a great question. 00:47:13
Definite. Oh, maybe 70 decibels is a vacuum cleaner, right? Just restaurant noise. 00:47:17
And so you show, I mean show fights, games, things like that inside. What will outdoors have access to that too, like outdoor 00:47:25
screens and all that? I think so. OK here. Yeah, I think that's fine. I think it's great. I think that the intent is just 00:47:31
essentially general restaurant noise and acceptable, right. So I don't think in our 14 locations in 12 years we've ever had an 00:47:38
outdoor. 00:47:44
Patio issue. I'm not concerned in this area. 00:47:51
People are coming out of IMAX cranked up. 00:47:55
OK, All right. Well then we probably don't need to make that a specific condition. 00:48:01
Will there be any additional lighting on that east side where there will be typical restaurant type flight or will it be lighting 00:48:09
towards the pedestrian passage down? 00:48:15
Yeah, because there's lighting currently on the building on that east side. Will there be any lighting? We'll install additional 00:48:24
lighting under the patio, which will now sounds like probably be high enough, but we'll have a lot of, lot of illumination. 00:48:32
Bleeding out but. 00:48:41
We'll run a course of round pendants that. 00:48:44
OK inside but down the length of it OK. 00:48:49
OK. 00:48:55
Naseem and Chris, do you guys have any final comments before we try to make an attempt to get these conditions right? 00:48:58
No, the final comments. 00:49:10
That was the most dramatic No, I've ever. 00:49:13
Was killing me. 00:49:16
OK, so I might need a little help with this, so I'll try to get. I wrote down the conditions as we were talking to. You've got 00:49:19
them, you can read them. You can read the before we make a motion. How are you feeling about this? So like the comments that we've 00:49:27
made, does that sound good? Yeah, I feel fine with it. I just liked it. Have a building permit and. 00:49:35
Time is money for sure. I'm a little unclear about the the elevation if we're. 00:49:44
If we're. 00:49:50
Being granted flexibility on the pitch of the roof yet or not, OK, I don't know. I was going to. 00:49:52
So I'm, I mean, I'm always the designer and I prefer the flat pitch roof. And Bryce expressed his opinion. I don't know if anybody 00:50:02
else. 00:50:07
Do we have a number to be or you know, like I think can we put in the record, I mean these elevations that have been provided, I 00:50:13
know they're not part of the digital submittal what you have Brian, but if they provide this? 00:50:19
Document that matches what we're looking at now I think we could say you know with what we're looking at now on paper yeah they 00:50:28
can be uploaded to the permit file and, and, and we could say that. 00:50:34
It has to be consistent with the elevations because submitted to the permit file right now. I'm OK with yeah. Is that what you 00:50:41
were saying too, Bryce? This one that's drawn up that we have in paper. Yeah, and. 00:50:49
The pitch will be, I mean, it's going to be a little bit different than this because it's going to be 3 feet in. 00:50:59
But the way it lines up with that side. 00:51:06
And it'll be a little bit steeper too. If it's shorter, the pitch will be a little bit steeper just because it's shorter and so it 00:51:12
won't have to travel that distance as much. So maybe because it's a little bit steeper, it'll be, it could potentially be cheaper. 00:51:18
I do. I do understand that that with some roofs, specifically metal roofs, if it's below a certain pitch, then you have to do 00:51:23
specific things to tie it down. 00:51:28
More structure, but I don't know how much it more it could be, but if you guys are willing to pay a nickel more for a beer. 00:51:35
Fine, we'll make it up in the long run. Cool. Yeah, yeah. And I, I don't know the percentage of what that is and but I, I think 00:51:42
that visually it makes more sense to have it as a lower pitch kind of how it is here and I. 00:51:51
So we're going to have. So yeah, I think we're going to does that. Is that clear enough that we want to do cool. 00:52:03
Hey, Jeff, you ready to make a motion? 00:52:10
Yeah, sorry. Right. And did we decide we were holding? Yeah, we're going to elevations that are provided, right. So it's different 00:52:13
from the Salvation and I'm not sure we're going to word that because it's pulled in three feet. Yeah, because it's pulled in three 00:52:17
feet, but. 00:52:22
To make it, I guess it would look the same. The exterior elevation would look the same from the east side no matter what. Even if 00:52:27
it was pulled in three feet, right, the east side exterior elevation would be the same. So I don't know how to how. 00:52:34
The pitch, the slope of that roof will be the same. It just comes in three feet. They'll tie it in at the top. I mean, the pitcher 00:52:47
will change because it's 3 feet in, so the pitch goes a little bit steeper, if that makes sense. 00:52:54
Because it's in three feet more. 00:53:01
It's the same distance going from the outside to the inside, but because it's come in the pitch gets a little bit steeper unless 00:53:03
you raise just lift the bearing point of it up a little bit more. But that's that's been issue that I don't. 00:53:11
From the existing right? Exactly, yes. 00:53:21
You guys, you understand what we're wanting you to draw, so I worded just how he said it to match the existing depth of the other 00:53:25
exterior canopy. 00:53:30
So that's the depth of the existing exterior canopy. Yeah, so. 00:53:39
If you're calling that depth, I guess. 00:53:45
This, this right here, Yeah. 00:53:48
You're saying what you see from here. Yeah. So basically you're you're east side exterior elevation would look exactly the same no 00:53:51
matter what the pitch is. 00:53:56
I'm going to try this then. OK, we're ready. 00:54:03
OK, then I move to. I don't have what the item number is here. 00:54:07
I pull that back up. 00:54:15
I can pull up on the screen. Hey, I move to approve the site plan as requested by Ryan Nichols of Nichols Naylor Architects with 00:54:17
the proposed conditions that the fence patio outdoor patio is reduced to 12 feet to allow a 36 inch minimum walkway along the 00:54:25
eastern edge of the existing sidewalk. 00:54:33
Defense Patio can extend to the north up to the northeast corner of the existing building. 00:54:42
There will be no new crosswalk extending to the east from the southeast corner. 00:54:51
Also, that the applicant revised the design that is consistent in concept with the elevation that have been provided on paper such 00:54:59
that the the canopy over the patio is a lower slope and matches the depth of the existing exterior canopy. And that the applicant 00:55:08
will submit the actual material board to staff just to ensure that the the colors tie in with the existing buildings. 00:55:17
And a site plan. 00:55:27
And a site plan. 00:55:29
And then mentioning the other conditions, staff recommended conditions, Yeah, some of these normal privacy, we're basically 00:55:31
discussing #2 and #1. 00:55:37
So it's kind of your choice. 00:55:44
So and that the applicant shall provide that first one as strategy. 00:55:48
That means fire access requirements maximize the safety and convenience of pedestrian flow around the outdoor seating area, which 00:55:53
we've addressed. 00:55:56
Meeting all the building design requirements which would address the applicant OK areas. 00:56:00
We're not dealing with that. The applicant pays any outstanding fees and makes any Red Line corrections, and the applicant is 00:56:06
subject to all federal, state and local laws. 00:56:11
OK. So just to be clear. 00:56:18
The first four. 00:56:24
I don't apply or have been addressed already in the previous conditions that you stated and then if you can read the the 5th and 00:56:27
6th one as conditions that do apply. 00:56:32
So these conditions do apply. The applicant pays any outstanding fees and makes any red line corrections, and the applicant is 00:56:38
subject to all federal, state and local laws. 00:56:43
Are we happy with that? Yeah, period. I'm happy with that. 00:56:50
We passed over the nuisance general. 00:56:56
Which I think is the noise that way you're that's a requirement. Yeah, it's a requirement. It's a requirement already. Yeah. So 00:57:00
that's code, code code enforcement. That can become a code enforcement issue regardless. So if we receive any complaints about it. 00:57:07
So. All right, Do I have a second for final second? All right, Thank you, Anthony. All in favor, is this roll caller? No. All in 00:57:14
favor. Aye. Cool. Thank you, guys. 00:57:21
We're excited about it. It's going to be cool. 00:57:29
Self self-interest questions when timeline. 00:57:31
On this, it sounds like you wanted to move quickly. Do you have target dates? 00:57:35
What will be the seating capacity or the feeding capacity of the facility? 00:57:43
Just a guess. 00:58:01
Michael. 00:58:09
Awesome. Hey, good luck. Welcome to Vineyard. Thank you, guys. Thank you guys. 00:58:11
All right. 00:58:18
So Bryce, actually. 00:58:22
Item 4.2 we're going to push to the next meeting, so we won't be discussing that one tonight. 00:58:25
No, no. So we've already noticed the public service is basically a continuance of that notification and and it's okay to move it 00:58:32
to the next one. So moving on to 4.3 then public hearing zoning text amendment for 15.32 point 230 and 15 point 38.030 ordinance 00:58:39
#2021 dash 05. 00:58:45
OK, sweet. 00:58:53
So I get some notes out real quick. 00:58:55
Thanks guys. 00:58:58
That was a complicated one back there. Yeah, yeah. I think it's good to get it. I still would like to see more lighting in that 00:59:01
alleyway, but yeah, yeah, yeah. So who would do that? The owner of the Yeah, the master developer. And that was my concern on that 00:59:08
one, was that for them improving just a 10 improvement on their space, they're not going to really have any control over the 00:59:16
applicant, you know, over that alleyway because that's on that's on the landlord. Can we put standards in for that? 00:59:23
In general, what are they? 00:59:33
In the future, in the future for lighting, for alleyways, yeah. And that alleyway, I think became more of a. 00:59:37
More, yeah, more of an entrance than I think any of us were anticipating it becoming. 00:59:48
So that's good. There's lots of traffic there, so. 00:59:53
All right. 00:59:58
OK, guys, Just I'm just pulling up this ordinance that we're going to be discussing. 00:59:59
OK, so this ordinance is to. 01:00:05
Make revisions to retaining walls and fences. That code section that treats this so just to provide you a little context, so. 01:00:10
We're we're having a lot of residents on along the Lakeshore who are trying to. 01:00:24
Have these retaining walls. 01:00:31
And this is basically for the purpose of them being able to have more usable backyard space and so. 01:00:33
Once they do get that retaining wall put on there, our code really doesn't say anything at the time. Currently to allow for a 01:00:44
fence to be put on top of the retaining wall. Right now they have to put their fences stepped back in more into their yard, thus 01:00:50
kind of removing an additional. 01:00:57
Area where they can then some more of their backyard is being removed with with what the ordinance is currently in place. So this 01:01:04
this ordinance is to help prevent that reduction in people's backyard usable backyard space and so. 01:01:15
So I'll just read the the changes here. It says retaining wall shall not exceed 6 feet in height. Fences and walls are permitted 01:01:25
to be located on top of a retaining wall and may contain an additional 6 feet in height and side and rear yards and 42 inches in 01:01:32
front yards. 01:01:40
The team wall is greater than 4 feet in height, will require a building permit, and the height is measured from the bottom of the 01:01:47
footings to the top of the wall. 01:01:52
So, yeah, so routine walls can't exceed 6 feet in height. They can't in the back and rear yards. They can't exceed 42 inches in 01:01:58
the front yards. And a retaining wall that's 4 feet in height will require a building permit, and that's measured from the bottom 01:02:05
of the footings to the top of the wall. 01:02:12
In the back, correct in the back. 01:02:20
Anything that's consistent with the surrounding environment as the code currently dictates. 01:02:24
So it seems that this is basically just concerning James Bay. 01:02:29
I mean there are a couple of other places along some of the wetlands and stuff, but but mostly James Bay. Have we gone out and 01:02:36
measured the height of the? 01:02:42
One, I know that there's one retaining wall that's already built there. Has that been measured? 01:02:48
Yeah, that one I remember we have a because I assumed that most of James Bay is going to want to, if they're going to put in a 01:02:54
retaining wall is going to want to match that. Yeah, right. And I know it's more than we're working with on that kind of that does 01:03:02
want to match that. And we're trying to figure out some issues with it because they need to bring in some infill to prevent some 01:03:09
water issues that would then occur on on the side of the fence that's. 01:03:16
Closer to the trail and so this is. 01:03:24
We are encountering that, but we're we're working on it so. 01:03:30
The existing one is more than six feet, isn't it? 01:03:35
Yeah. 01:03:39
So yeah. 01:03:46
Yeah. So it's technically not in the way of balls is separate. We're saying you have one retaining wall, then you have to step 01:03:48
back with soil and then, then, then there's another retaining wall. So approximately total height from. 01:03:54
The ground on the opposite side with the trailers to the top of their where they're finished grape would be would be about 10 to 01:04:02
12 feet depending. But again, each retaining wall is step back. So your your approximately about anywhere from 5:00 to 6:00 feet 01:04:09
each step. And how close can the steps be? 01:04:15
Like there's a six foot wall, then the step, then a six foot wall. Is there a required distance between those 26 foot walls? I 01:04:23
believe it's 4 feet. Yeah. So yeah, I mean, the way the way the way it's shown is about approximately 4 feet. I mean, they're 01:04:29
technical. The real answer would be it depends on the on the engineering designs of the closer. There are two retaining walls are 01:04:34
together. 01:04:40
Exactly. The weaker are the worst case scenario that you would have to be doing exactly. 01:04:48
I know that the four foot requirement in the building foot building code requirements because 4 foot anything about four feet 01:04:52
needs an engineer stamp on that retaining wall and so. 01:04:58
Including the footing, Yeah, including, right, the retaining portion, yeah, is whatever's. 01:05:05
Stopping Earth from moving right so. 01:05:11
OK, that we'll get to a public comment portion, I guess. 01:05:16
Recommended Google Earth, Yeah. 01:05:19
And then the sorry David, would you mind? 01:05:23
Oh, yeah. Let me, Hi, David. Let me open up a public hearing real quick. Do I drive a motion to make a motion that we open the 01:05:32
public hearing? 01:05:37
2nd promotion. All right, all in favor, aye. 01:05:42
Thanks. OK, so I'm looking at Google Earth. I'm looking at that corner lot on the North End of James Bangs. We're about we're at 01:05:46
against the park there, right. So the park and I've seen that the that corner facing the corner down by the wetlands. 01:05:55
Down as it stands down South from there it looks like there's two tiers, but you go up close with it, that's all one looks like 01:06:06
there is that So is that because part of it it would be too high given your? 01:06:12
Your inordinates. 01:06:19
But it's shorter on the North End there because the trail ramps up quite a bit. 01:06:21
Yeah, there's a short enough. My question see at the Northside is. 01:06:27
I again, I don't know there to go to the park and and so. 01:06:32
I'm sorry but what is the what is the height there when the two walls combined? Is that is that going to be over 4 foot? 01:06:41
That that that might have received a variance because the the final grade was not had not yet been determined. 01:06:49
Before they finished construction, so they had the retaining wall, but the the trail to the side wasn't yet completed and so they 01:07:00
didn't have a final grade to go off of. And so therefore they were able to exceed that height do a variance, but the rest of any 01:07:07
retaining wall that's approved moving forward here. 01:07:15
Is not is. It won't be allowed to have any dirt or or surface manipulated to increase the height of that wall. So they all it's 01:07:23
it's. 01:07:28
That's kind of like our safety measure for preventing that. 01:07:36
So just to. 01:07:41
Yeah. So for the heights on, I don't know any other heights for that specific house. But since we're passing the ordinance now, if 01:07:44
there was something that happened with that house, it would be grandfathered in. 01:07:49
I'm just looking at all the others you've got. You have fences right up against there and we have retaining walls up there now. 01:07:57
And I'm wondering if you might want to go, you might want to postpone this. Go, actually go out and measure them. And so you know 01:08:02
what you've really got, because you want people to match them and make sure what you have, even if they're grandfathered in and 01:08:07
you want to, you want me to know what they are. Just a suggestion. Yeah. 01:08:13
And that, that was my concern too, that I was talking about that I think it makes sense to match it, but. 01:08:19
If if you can do tears like somebody could essentially have a 24 foot tall retaining wall as long as it's tiered back. And so I 01:08:25
think that with that that that would get rid of anybody elses concerns in this area because I don't think it's more than. 01:08:33
And 14 feet, maybe to the very tallest. 01:08:42
Like to ground level? 01:08:47
Yeah, from the trail to the to the street. 01:08:49
Yeah, I still want to skim my knuckles and ride my bicycle down there. 01:08:54
So, yeah, yeah. 01:08:57
Yeah. So the the visible portion of the wall can't exceed 6 feet in height nor can any dirt be manipulated altered final grade 01:09:01
cannot be altered to specifically to increase the the height of the wall. So that that's a lot of I think it's like, so you mean 01:09:08
pile up the dirt and then put the wall on top of the piled up dirt? Exactly, exactly so. 01:09:16
Yeah, I don't know. I see that as the as a safety measure that would prevent. 01:09:26
That from happening, yeah, that makes sense. 01:09:30
And you are required to to engineering you all higher than 4 feet from footing from the bottom of the footing to the top. 01:09:34
Yeah. And until you have to get an engineer, it's basically just you have to pay an engineer to put a stamp on it. Yeah, yeah. 01:09:46
Make sure you use geogrid and fill it properly and that kind of stuff. Yeah, Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I learned about that the other 01:09:50
day. 01:09:54
All right. Thank you. Thanks, David. 01:10:00
Yeah, things. Thanks for coming. 01:10:03
As far as the public comment goes on this, do I close it or do I leave it open? I would close it. 01:10:06
I think, I think you can close it now. OK. Do you have any other public? 01:10:13
All right, don't have a motion to close the public comment, Move to close the public for second public comment. All in favor, aye. 01:10:19
All right, so. 01:10:23
Going back to this. 01:10:30
So it doesn't even need to. 01:10:43
I guess if it goes to engineering. 01:10:45
Why would it need a building permit as well? 01:10:48
Just to make sure that it has engineering. Cool. OK, missing you have a comment. I was gonna say because it census class wiser 01:10:52
retaining wall and kind of falls underneath the fence and it's it's allowed to be placed onto the property line. So it falls down 01:10:59
the building department because it's at in essence, it's tied to the to the building structure. OK. 01:11:07
All right. 01:11:16
So if it's above 4 feet, um. 01:11:20
Is there any specific reason that we don't want something taller than six feet? If it's engineered already, it's going to be safe. 01:11:24
So is there a reason why we're saying 6 feet is the maximum? Well, I think it it would be to prevent. 01:11:31
So like, imagine you're out there on the lakefront and there's a retaining wall that's higher than six feet. It starts to then 01:11:40
begin to create a, a, a scenario for pedestrians that isn't as inviting. And maybe they might even be like security and safety 01:11:46
issues. When you have a wall that exceeds that height, that makes sense, especially along the trails, because stuff falling off of 01:11:52
more than six feet can be a danger. 01:11:59
That too cool. 01:12:06
So that's kind of a good height. 01:12:08
Yeah, that makes sense. 01:12:10
Any other comments There were there were some other additions in the text as well, correct? Not just that paragraph, there was a 01:12:11
few others. Let me go back to it. 01:12:16
Just want to touch on all the given additions before we move forward. 01:12:22
Where am I? 01:12:28
It's so hard to see from back here. 01:12:32
