[1. Call to Order.]

[00:00:03]

IT'S 6:32 P.M.

HERE ON SEPTEMBER 21ST, 2023.

APPRECIATE YOU JOINING US THIS EVENING HERE IN CITY HALL FOR OUR CITY OF SOUTHLAKE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING.

DEFINITELY LESS PEOPLE IN THE GALLERY THIS TIME THAN LAST MEETING.

APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE.

MY NAME IS DAN KUBIAK, CHAIRMAN OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING.

FAIRLY ABBREVIATED AGENDA THIS EVENING.

SO I THINK MAYBE WITHOUT ANY FURTHER UPDATES, WE'LL PROBABLY LAUNCH RIGHT INTO IT.

NO NEED FOR AN EXECUTIVE SESSION THIS EVENING, AND I GUESS ARE THERE ANY ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS TO ADDRESS TODAY? OKAY. WELL, HOPEFULLY DENNIS IS ENJOYING HIS NIGHT OFF WHEREVER HE IS, ALTHOUGH I GUESS ALLEGEDLY HE IS WORKING TONIGHT IS WHAT I'M TOLD, BUT I'LL TAKE EVERYBODY'S WORD FOR IT.

RARE NOT HAVING HIM HERE.

PROBABLY FIRST MEETING IN TEN YEARS I'VE EVER BEEN IN WITHOUT HIM OR KEN BAKER HERE NOW THAT I'M THINKING ABOUT IT.

OKAY, WELL, WE'LL SOLDIER ON IN HIS ABSENCE.

NO COMMENTS FOR MYSELF.

ITEM NUMBER FOUR.

WE'LL GO TO OUR CONSENT AGENDA THIS EVENING, WHICH I BELIEVE, LIKE LAST MEETING, WE CAN TAKE ALL AT ONCE AS EACH MOTION'S READ OUT, AND IT'S

[CONSENT AGENDA]

SO ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, ANY OF THOSE BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION? OKAY, MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE ITEMS NUMBER FIVE AND SIX ON OUR AGENDA, AND WITH RESPECT TO ITEM NUMBER SIX, NOTING THAT IT'S ZA23-0035 AND IT IS A MOTION TO APPROVE THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST TO TABLE THE ITEM UNTIL THE OCTOBER 5TH, 2023, PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING.

OKAY. MOTION.

DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND.

OKAY. I THINK WE'RE ALL GOOD THERE.

WE'LL GO AHEAD AND VOTE, PLEASE.

TRY TO VOTE, AND PASSES 7 TO 0, I BELIEVE.

OKAY. SEVEN ZERO. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

MOVE ON TO THE ONLY ITEM ON OUR REGULAR AGENDA THIS EVENING, WHICH IS, LET'S SEE, ZONING CHANGE AND SITE PLAN FOR SOUTHLAKE MARKETPLACE.

[7. Consider: Ordinance No. 480-804, ZA23-0008, Zoning Change and Site Plan for Southlake Marketplace, for property described as Lots 5, 6, and 7, Block 1, Southlake Crossing Phase II, an addition to the City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas and located at 2001-2115 W. Southlake Blvd., Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: "C-3" General Commercial District. Requested Zoning: "S-P-1" Detailed Site Plan District. SPIN Neighborhood #10. PUBLIC HEARING (This item was tabled at the applicant's request at the September 7, 2023 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting.]

SO REAGAN, I GUESS I'D SAY FEEL FREE TO KIND OF SKIP THE TO THE HIGH NOTES HERE AND WE CAN KIND OF GET THROUGH IT AS WE GO.

YES, SIR. WE'LL HIT THE HIGHLIGHTS.

I KNOW THE APPLICANTS ARE HERE AND READY FOR A PRESENTATION.

THIS IS A ZONING CHANGE AND SITE PLAN FOR THE SOUTHLAKE MARKETPLACE AT THIS LOCATION.

THIS AERIAL MAP OF THE SITE, THE ZONING IS CURRENTLY C-3 GENERAL COMMERCIAL FUTURE LAND USE PLAN CALLS FOR RETAIL COMMERCIAL.

THIS IS AN IMAGE OF THE SITE PLAN SHOWING THE UPDATED SITE DATA SUMMARY CHART.

THAT'S THE BIRDCALL SITE, WHICH REALLY IS A LARGE PART OF THIS ZONING CHANGE AND SITE PLAN APPROVAL.

THESE ARE ELEVATIONS FOR THE BUILDING, AND THIS IS A RENDERING OF THE BUILDING.

IT'S SMALL ENOUGH.

IT'S NOT ACTUALLY SUBJECT TO ARTICULATION REQUIREMENTS, BUT STILL IS A NICE CLEAN BUILDING FOR THE SITE.

THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING SOME CHANGES TO THE LAYOUT OF THE SITE, WHICH INCLUDES THE ADDITION OF SOME NEW PARKING ISLANDS AS WELL AS SOME REDESIGNING OF SOME EXISTING ONES.

THIS IS TO ENSURE THAT THE IMPERVIOUS COVERAGE REMAINS THE SAME, WHICH IS INCIDENTALLY AT 77.92%, WHICH SLIGHTLY EXCEEDS WHAT IS PERMITTED IN C-3. HOWEVER, IT IS AN EXISTING CONDITION.

THE APPLICANT IS HOPING THAT CAN REMAIN WITH THE ZONING CHANGE.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THE ADDITION OF THE BIRDCALL SITE, AND THEY ARE ALSO ASKING FOR VARIANTS TO THE PARKING AGAIN RELATED MORE TO AN EXISTING CONDITION. THEY'RE ASKING FOR AN APPROXIMATE 9% REDUCTION IN REQUIRED PARKING THAT WOULD ALLOW FOR THE MIX OF USES THAT THEY ARE SEEKING FOR THE SITE, INCLUDING NEW RESTAURANT AND THOSE KIND OF USES.

THIS IS THE PROPOSED LANDSCAPE PLAN SHOWING NEW CANOPY AND.

ORNAMENTAL TREES.

THEY'RE ALSO REQUESTING THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL TURF AND A COUPLE OF LOCATIONS, ONE ADJACENT TO THE NEW BIRDCALL RESTAURANT AND ANOTHER BETWEEN TWO RESTAURANTS IN THE ENDCAPS OF THE BUILDINGS ON THE WEST SIDE.

ALL OF THESE ARE WRITTEN IN AS PART OF THE SP-1 DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

THERE HAVE BEEN NO PROPERTY OWNER RESPONSES WITHIN 300FT.

JUST INTERESTING TO NOTE JUST DUE TO HOW THE TIMING HAS OCCURRED FOR THIS CASE, WE DID ACTUALLY NOTIFY EVERYBODY TWICE FOR THIS CASE, SO WE'VE RECEIVED NO NOTIFICATIONS

[00:05:11]

THE APPLICANT IS HERE TONIGHT TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE, BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME, I'M HERE TOO.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF SO FAR? I MEAN, I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A CENTER THAT I THINK HAS BEEN IN ITS EXISTING CONDITION FOR QUITE A WHILE.

SO I GUESS IT'S HELPFUL TO ENTERTAIN SOME IMPROVEMENTS HERE.

OKAY. WHY DON'T WE HAVE THE APPLICANT GO AHEAD AND COME UP.

STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, IF THAT'S OKAY, AND I GUESS IF WE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, YOU GOT YOUR ENGINEERING REPRESENTATIVE BACK THERE THAT I RECOGNIZED FROM OUR LAST MEETING. SO I KNOW HE CAN USUALLY BE PRETTY HELPFUL WITH THESE.

ABSOLUTELY. WELL, I'M BUCK WHEELER WITH SHOP DEVELOPMENT.

THANK YOU GUYS FOR YOUR TIME THIS EVENING AND REAGAN THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP AND TAKING US THROUGH THAT.

I'VE GOT SOME MATERIAL SAMPLES FROM BIRDCALL FOR THE BIRDCALL BUILDING.

DO YOU WANT ME TO PASS THESE AROUND TO YOU GUYS SO YOU GUYS CAN.

DO YOU GUYS WANT TO SEE THEM? SURE, SURE, WHY NOT AND ON YOUR PRESENTATION, FEEL FREE LIKE STAFF TO KIND OF JUST HIT THE HIGHLIGHTS.

NOT GOING TO WIN THEM ALL, BUT YEAH, FEEL FREE TO JUST TO HIT THE HIGHLIGHTS.

WE GOT A COPY OF THE PRESENTATION IN OUR MATERIALS.

WE HAD A CHANCE TO REVIEW IT AND WE CAN JUST ASK QUESTIONS AT THE END.

SURE. YEAH.

SO, WE'RE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THIS.

I THINK REALLY THE ONE BIG THING IS THE PARKING OBVIOUSLY I THINK IS THE BIGGEST VARIANCE, AT LEAST IN MY OPINION, AND WHEN WE FIRST GOT INVOLVED ON THIS PROJECT, WE WHEN YOU'RE STANDING OUT ON SITE KIND OF FEELING IT AND TOUCHING IT, YOU LOOK OUT AND IT'S A COMPLETE SEA OF PARKING.

SO IT WAS PRETTY SHOCKING WHEN WE KIND OF GOT INTO THE GUTS OF IT THAT IT WAS UNDER PARKED OR THERE WAS A PARKING ISSUE BECAUSE IT JUST FEELS LIKE A CONCRETE JUNGLE OUT THERE. SO IT WAS SURPRISING, BUT I THINK ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE USES AND HOW BIG HOBBY LOBBY IS AND THAT TRAMPOLINE PARK ISN'T ISN'T GOING TO BE BUMPING AT NIGHTS WHEN RESTAURANTS ARE, I THINK THAT SHOULD BE PRETTY AMPLE PARKING, BUT AS FAR AS KIND OF THE TENANT MIX GOES, I THINK DEFINITELY A HIGHLIGHT IS HOW MUCH LEASING TRACTION AND THE QUALITY OF LEASING THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO ACHIEVE.

WE ARE DOING CARTWHEELS AT THE TENANT MIX AND HOW IT'S COME TOGETHER.

WE HAVE SIGNED A LEASE WITH BIRDCALL, I MEAN, WITH BREADWINNERS.

SO THEY'RE GOING TO GO WHERE JAZZERCISE IS CURRENTLY, AND MIRACLE-EAR JUST RELOCATED OVER HERE AND JAZZERCISE IS GOING TO BE RELOCATING OVER HERE. WE JUST GOT APPROVAL ON THE PERMIT TO FINISH OUT THAT SPACE.

WE HAVE SIGNED THIS LEASE WITH RHI AND THAT IS JUST GOT VOTED RANKED NUMBER 11 ON BEST RESTAURANTS IN DALLAS BY D MAGAZINE FOR 2023. IT'S A REALLY COOL CONCEPT.

THEY'RE GOING TO BE DOING AN OUTDOOR PATIO AS WELL AS RHI SOUFFLE.

WE'RE ON THE ONE YARD LINE FOR THE FOR THE LEASE, AND IT FRANKLY DEPENDS ON KIND OF THE ABILITY TO DO THIS GREEN SPACE BECAUSE BOTH TENANTS WANT TO PLAY A PART IN THE PROGRAMMING OF THAT GREEN SPACE, AND DO YOU KNOW WHETHER IT BE CORNHOLE OR LIVE MUSIC? AND BOTH TENANTS HAVE PROACTIVELY CONTINUALLY FOLLOWED UP ON HOW DO WE GET INVOLVED IN MAKING SURE THAT'S NOT JUST A GREEN SPACE THAT'S NOT UTILIZED.

THEY REALLY WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE ABLE TO TAP INTO THAT AND WE'RE ALL FOR IT, AND SO THE REQUEST IS ARTIFICIAL TURF.

THEY'RE MORE FOR JUST MAKING SURE THAT IT'S MAINTAINED AND LOOKS GOOD TO A HIGH STANDARD AT ALL TIMES, EVEN IF IT'S USED A BUNCH.

IF WE NEED TO GO REAL SOLID, THEN WE LIKE GRASS TOO.

SO BUT I THINK AND THEN BIRDCALL IS I DON'T KNOW IF YOU GUYS ARE FAMILIAR WITH BIRDCALL, BUT THE WAY I WOULD DESCRIBE IT IS IT'S SIMILAR TO WHERE WHAT SHAKE SHACK IS TO THE BURGER INDUSTRY AND BIRDCALL IS TO KIND OF THE FRIED CHICKEN INDUSTRY.

SO IT'S I'M NOT GOING TO SIT HERE AND SAY ANYTHING'S BETTER THAN CHICK-FIL-A, BUT I WOULDN'T DARE, BUT BIRDCALL IS MORE OF KIND OF A GOURMET TYPE OFFERING. THEY HAVE SALADS AND THEY DO HAVE MORE OF A FAMILY ORIENTED ATMOSPHERE.

SO OUR GOAL ON THESE PROJECTS IS ALWAYS TO INCREASE DWELL TIME, AND I THINK HOPEFULLY THAT CAN BE SEEN THROUGH OUR PLANS OF INCREASING PATIOS AND OUTDOOR SPACE AND JUST OVERALL PEDESTRIAN SCALE AND HOW IT LOOKS AND FEELS.

SO THAT'S REALLY KIND OF OUR MISSION.

[00:10:01]

NOT JUST FOR THE COMMISSION BUT FOR THE CITY COUNCIL LEVEL.

KIND OF REALLY LAY OUT THE OVERALL VALUE PROPOSITION HERE IN TERMS OF THE BROADER IMPROVEMENTS THAT YOU'RE BRINGING TO THE CENTER, WHICH I THINK, AS WE ALL KNOW, BEING AROUND TOWN HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT CAPITAL STARVED FOR FOR A LONG TIME, AND I THINK SOME OF THE NEW MORE SUPERCHARGED TENANCY WILL HELP AND SOME OF THE IMPROVEMENTS DRIVE-THRUS ARE SOMETHING THAT KIND OF ON AN INDIVIDUAL NEW ONE OFF BASIS TEND TO KIND OF GIVE US A LITTLE HEARTBURN AROUND HERE BUT I THINK IN EXCHANGE FOR UNDERSTANDING THE BROADER IMPROVEMENTS THAT YOU'RE OFFERING HERE AND THE UPGRADE AND TENANT MIX AND JUST THE FACT THAT IT DOESN'T APPARENTLY TALKING TO STAFF, IT DOESN'T REALLY IMPACT THE TRAFFIC COUNT VERY MUCH.

SO I THINK INCREMENTALLY IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THERE'S MUCH NEGATIVES THERE.

I KNOW IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S PRETTY INTERESTING TO ME, AND I KNOW I THINK IT'S BEEN A LITTLE WHILE SINCE YOU WENT TO THE CORRIDOR COMMITTEE MEETING.

YES, SIR, AND I KNOW YOU WENT TO THAT, AND IF I RECALL, THERE WASN'T I GUESS THE FEEDBACK WAS GENERALLY POSITIVE.

I WAS TRYING TO REMEMBER IF THERE'S ANY SPECIFIC FOLLOW UP OR ACTION ITEMS FROM THAT, BUT IT'S BEEN POSITIVELY RECEIVED, TO MY POINT, REAGAN I APOLOGIZE FOR ALL THE FALSE STARTS AND NOTIFYING THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY MORE THAN ONCE, BUT WITH THIS ZONING CHANGE, WE HAD TO HAVE BIRDCALL'S ELEVATIONS.

WE CAN'T GET APPROVAL FOR THAT BUILDING WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT THE BUILDING IS LIKE, AND SO WE'RE NOT IN CONTROL OF THAT PROCESS, AND SO GETTING A TENANT WHERE WE HAVEN'T HAD A SIGNED LEASE UNDER TO SPEND MONEY WITH THIRD PARTY ARCHITECTS HAS BEEN A CHALLENGE, AND SO THAT'S THE REASON FOR KIND OF THE FALSE STARTS.

OKAY. QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? I REALLY LIKE WHAT YOU'RE DOING WITH THE WHOLE CENTER.

SO THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT AND HELPING US THERE, AND I THINK THE ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING WITH THE ISLANDS AND BUILDING THOSE, I THINK AND THE REMOVING OF THE SLANTING PARKING, I THINK ALL THAT'S GREAT FROM AN ARTIFICIAL TURF STANDPOINT, I THINK, LISTEN, IF WE WANT IT SURVIVING THROUGH JULY AND AUGUST AND JANUARY AND STILL LOOKING GOOD AND YOU WANT ACTIVITY OUT THERE, I'M ALL FOR IT.

I ONLY HAD ONE QUESTION AND THAT'S REALLY JUST RIGHT HERE WHERE YOU HAVE BIRDCALL PROPOSED.

IT LOOKS LIKE A DIFFERENT SORT OF SETUP THERE NOW.

I'M JUST CURIOUS WHAT THAT IS.

YES, THIS WE HAD THIS SITE PLAN.

THIS IS MORE OF A LEASING PLAN.

I SHOULD HAVE MADE THAT CLEAR.

WE HAD THE SITE PLAN RENDERED ON THE FIRST OF 38 SITE PLANS, BUT THIS WAS THIS WAS AN EARLIER RENDITION.

SO IT I APOLOGIZE.

IT ACTUALLY IS GOING TO BE WHERE THIS IS SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARD, AND THE DRIVE-THRU WINDOW IS OVER HERE.

WE DID AT ONE POINT, REAGAN.

WE HAD THE DRIVE THROUGH WINDOW.

FROM AN ENGINEERING PERSPECTIVE, WE COULD ONLY FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THIS WITH THE DRIVE THROUGH WINDOW FACING SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARD, AND WE KNEW THAT WAS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE.

WE DON'T LOVE THAT AND WE KNEW THAT SOUTHLAKE WOULDN'T LIKE THAT AS WELL AND SO WE WERE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT FROM AN ENGINEERING PERSPECTIVE HOW TO FLIP THE BUILDING WHERE THE FRONT IS FACING SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARD AND THE DRIVE-THRU IS A LITTLE BIT HIDDEN, BUT I APOLOGIZE THAT'S NOT THE SAME ON THE LEASING SITE PLAN, BUT THAT IS WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW, THE CORRECT ORIENTATION, AND I ALSO WANT TO EXPRESS APPRECIATION FOR WHAT YOU'RE DOING FOR THE CENTER, BUT MY CONCERN OR MY QUESTION RELATES TO THE PARKING GOING FROM THE ANGLED TO THE STRAIGHT IN NOW AN ANGLED PARKING IN THEORY A DRIVER, ALL THE CAR TRAFFIC WOULD BE GOING ONE WAY.

I SAY IN THEORY BECAUSE YOU KNOW HOW IT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK OUT THAT WAY, BUT WHEN YOU SWITCH IT TO THE STRAIGHT IN, THEN YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE PARKING COMING FROM BOTH WAYS AND THERE'S NOT DISTANCES HERE.

SO JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS ENOUGH SPACE IN BETWEEN THE TWO ROWS OF PARKING THAT THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE AN ISSUE WITH TWO WAY TRAFFIC DOWN THOSE AISLES. ABSOLUTELY, FIRST OF ALL, GREAT QUESTION.

IT'S SURPRISING THAT EVEN THOUGH THE PARKING FIELD LOOKS LIKE WE'VE TAKEN AWAY SO MUCH PARKING AREA BY MAKING IT 90 DEGREE PARKING, YOU ACTUALLY PICK UP A LOT OF EFFICIENCY, AND JUST KIND OF IN THAT MAIN AREA, WE'VE PICKED UP 32 PARKING SPACES, WHICH FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH, BUT AS FAR AS THE DISTANCES GO ON THE DRIVE AISLES, WE KNOW THAT THIS IS TRUCK COUNTRY AND YOU NEED TO BE ABLE TO BACK A F-250 OUT JUST FINE AND SO, SHAY, DO YOU KNOW IF THERE ARE 22FT DRIVE AISLES OR 24? I KNOW FIRE LANES ARE 24.

NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE, SIR.

EVEN THOUGH YOU KNOW THE ROUTINE HERE.

GOOD EVENING. GREAT QUESTION.

YEAH. SO TYPICALLY THEY ARE ONE WAY WHEN YOU HAVE ANGLED PARKING IN THIS CENTER, THERE WERE ACTUALLY SOME WIDER DRIVE AISLES.

[00:15:04]

SO YOU'VE GOT ENOUGH WIDTH AS IF IT WAS PREVIOUSLY 90 DEGREE.

SO AND WE AND WE ALSO KIND OF WALK THIS THROUGH STAFF AND ASK THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, IN FACT, FIRE DEPARTMENT HELPED US REMOVE A SECTION OF FIRE LANE THAT WAS NOT NECESSARY.

THAT'S GIVEN US THE OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE THAT TURF OR GREEN SPACE AREA, TOO, BUT YES, WE LOOKED AT THE ACCESS AT ALL OF THESE AND DON'T THINK THAT THERE'S A PROBLEM.

THEY HAD TO HAVE BEEN WIDE ENOUGH FOR TWO CARS ANYWAY BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

RIGHT. YEAH, AND I WAS GOING TO SAY, IF YOU'VE EVER BEEN IN THAT CENTER WHEN THERE'S QUITE A BIT OF ACTIVITY, THEY'RE ALL TWO WAYS.

THERE'S NOT A SINGLE ONE IN THIS CENTER AREA THAT ANGLE THE SAME WAY.

YEAH SO THEY ALL ACT AS TWO WAY.

THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

NO, ABSOLUTELY. YEAH.

YEAH.

THERE'S NO COMPACT PARKING ASSUMED HERE.

OKAY. OTHER QUESTIONS FOR--I JUST HAD A QUICK QUESTION.

ARE THESE GOING TO BE IRRIGATED LANDSCAPE ISLANDS? ABSOLUTELY. YES, MA'AM, AND THE TREES THAT YOU'RE PUTTING IN, ARE THEY GOING TO BE CANOPIED THE WHOLE WAY TO THE GROUND? WE HAVE ANOTHER SHOPPING AREA WHERE IT IS THAT WAY AND IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR THE VISIBILITY WHEN YOU'RE COMING AROUND AND TRYING TO TURN TO SEE [INAUDIBLE] THEY'RE GOING TO BE THEY'RE GOING TO BE I BELIEVE WE EXPECT SIX INCH CALIPER TREES.

SO THE CANOPY ON THOSE SHOULD BE AT LEAST SIX FEET TALL.

THE BOTTOM OF THE CANOPY.

SO WE'RE NOT PLANNING ANYTHING.

ALL THE SHRUBS WILL BE LESS THAN THREE FEET, AND THEN THE CANOPIES SHOULD BE AT LEAST 5 TO 6FT, BUT DID I ANSWER THAT? OKAY, GOOD.

OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? FOR NOW? OKAY, AND I THINK WE'RE GOOD FOR NOW.

WE NEED ANYTHING ELSE. WE'LL CALL YOU BACK.

GREAT. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

YOU BET. ITEM NUMBER SEVEN ON OUR AGENDA THIS EVENING DOES CALL FOR A PUBLIC HEARING.

SO I'LL GO AHEAD AND OPEN UP THAT PUBLIC HEARING AND HIGHLY DOUBT THAT ANYONE'S GOING TO COME FORWARD TO COMMENT, BUT GIVING YOU A CHANCE AND I WILL GO AHEAD AND CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING I THINK WE KIND OF COVERED IT WELL.

I THINK THERE WAS SOME GOOD QUESTIONS IN THERE ON SOME OF THE DETAILS.

SOME GOOD ANSWERS, AND IT'S BEEN THROUGH A CORRIDOR, AND I THINK THIS IS THE CENTER WE'VE WANTED TO SEE IMPROVE FOR A WHILE, AND I THINK IT APPEARS TO BE EXECUTED IN A THOUGHTFUL WAY. SO, IT'S SOMETHING I'D BE SUPPORTIVE OF.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? OKAY, I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE.

ITEM NUMBER SEVEN ON THE AGENDA ZA23-0008, SUBJECT TO OUR STAFF REPORT DATED SEPTEMBER 15TH, 2023, AND ALSO SUBJECT TO OUR PLAN REVIEW SUMMARY NUMBER FOUR, DATED SEPTEMBER 15TH, 2023, AND NOTING APPROVAL OF THE VARIANCES REQUESTED.

HAVE A MOTION. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. ALL RIGHT.

LET'S GO TO VOTE, PLEASE.

WAITING ON ME. PASSES SEVEN ZERO.

CONGRATULATIONS. GOOD LUCK AT THE NEXT CITY COUNCIL MEETING, WHICH I'M GOING TO ASK STAFF RIGHT NOW TO REMIND ME OF THE DATE.

USUALLY THE HARDEST QUESTION OF THE EVENING.

OCTOBER 3RD. IF YOU CAN GET YOUR SUBMISSIONS IN IN TIME, GOOD LUCK, AND AGAIN, I WOULD I THINK YOU DID A GOOD JOB JUST OUTLINING THE BROADER VISION AND IMPROVEMENTS THAT YOU'RE DOING HERE, WHICH I THINK WILL BE HELPFUL TO COUNCIL.

SO GOOD LUCK AND WITH THAT
