- 0:00:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, if possible, could we move forward, move up the agenda, Resolution 26-2026-27, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Clarksville, Tennessee,
- 0:00:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript withdrawing from certain prior local option sales tax agreements and resolutions with Montgomery County and establishing a joint city-county committee.
- 0:00:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The Finance Committee voted or recommended disapproval, and the sponsor is Councilman Zacharias.
- 0:01:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 0:01:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any objection to moving that to the top and taking that up?
- 0:01:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Very.
- 0:01:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript At the very first.
- 0:01:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.

- 0:01:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 0:01:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 0:01:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If I turn on your microphone.
- 0:01:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
- 0:01:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, I have a couple handouts going around, and I do appreciate everybody's flexibility.
- 0:01:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript As soon as I get done, or as soon as we get done talking about this, I'm going to head out to Vanderbilt Clarksville Hospital.
- 0:01:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I wanted to at least get this in front of you, this information in front of everybody, before I head out.
- 0:01:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We need to get this out there.
- 0:01:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript First of all, I want to address, I'm sorry, do I have to read this?
- 0:01:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We all know what we're talking about, right?
- 0:01:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Just for the purpose of the record and the people at home, Resolution 26-2026-27, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Clarksville, Tennessee,
- 0:01:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript withdrawing from certain prior local option sales tax agreements and resolutions with Montgomery County and establishing a joint city-county committee.
- 0:02:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You're recognized.
- 0:02:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I appreciate that, Mayor.
- 0:02:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm sorry if I'm a bit.
- 0:02:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's okay.
- 0:02:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:02:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript welcome to my world all right so uh what i want to uh what i want to talk about today is uh or i
- 0:02:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript want to address some uh some criticisms or some concerns uh that i've seen or heard about uh the
- 0:02:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the resolution to uh reallocate or to bring the the city's local option sales tax revenue
- 0:02:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript back into the city first of all this is not a bailout okay i want to make that make sure
- 0:02:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript everybody understands that a 50 50 split between the school system and the municipality where the
- 0:02:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript sales tax was collected is standard in the state of tennessee okay what we are doing right now is
- 0:02:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not typical um i've also heard some uh some thoughts that uh that since voters approved the
- 0:02:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript tax that voters have to be the one to remove the tax we are not talking about removing a tax here
- 0:03:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript okay my understanding this is based on a conversation
- 0:03:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript with the city attorney is that yes the the tax itself was was imposed with a referendum
- 0:03:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but the split where 25 or 26 percent goes to the county and the remaining 24 percent stays with us
- 0:03:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that is an interlocal agreement between the city and the county there have been some questions
- 0:03:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript about whether or not this was something that we could exit from unilaterally that is very
- 0:03:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript interesting that is an interesting thought um and i think that's a very interesting thought
- 0:03:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and as fate would have it i learned of a uh of a case right here in tennessee that happened just two months ago
- 0:03:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and uh the the details in the background of that case are in one of the handouts basically shelbyville
- 0:03:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript was in a very similar situation with bedford county that we are with montgomery county right now
- 0:03:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they asked nicely the county refused shelbyville actually sued bedford county to get their sales
- 0:04:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript tax back
- 0:04:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and and were were granted the authority to exit that agreement by the court
- 0:04:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that court uh or the bedford county appealed that decision and it was upheld by an appeals
- 0:04:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript court so there is precedent for exactly what we are or what i'm talking about right here
- 0:04:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then finally our school funding there is no risk to school funding with this
- 0:04:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript okay school funding is the obligation's responsibility of the county that is why i am
- 0:04:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript trying to like i understand that that school funding or the the sales tax revenue that is
- 0:04:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript currently going to the schools would have to be made up by the county and that is the purpose of
- 0:04:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the working group is to allow that transition to happen as painlessly as possible um which
- 0:04:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript incidentally is exactly the outcome that uh uh the the court in bedford county arrived at where
- 0:05:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript where a court put the county and the city on notice with a deadline
- 0:05:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that they had to have the transition in place by,
- 0:05:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and that deadline is next year, next June.
- 0:05:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's really it for now.
- 0:05:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'd love to address any questions.
- 0:05:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Questions about this resolution?
- 0:05:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Zacharias, does this mean an automatic tax increase for county residents?
- 0:05:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It does not mean.
- 0:05:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So obviously we have no control over what the county does with their tax rate.
- 0:05:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Again, without sitting down with the county, it would be difficult to say.
- 0:05:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It does not mean an automatic tax increase.
- 0:05:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean, this difference could be made up with reductions in spending
- 0:05:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript or, again, as I said last month, transferring some services
- 0:05:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that are provided by the county inside city limits,
- 0:06:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript maybe reduce some costs and overhead.
- 0:06:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript To the county, I mean, there are plenty of options out there,
- 0:06:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but none of them get considered if we're not talking.
- 0:06:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know that during the budget discussion we had
- 0:06:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and the proposal that I brought forward about taking back
- 0:06:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that $3.5 million a year that we dedicate to the schools,
- 0:06:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript there was some concern that we were diminishing our value
- 0:06:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on our public education system, but there is a maintenance of effort.
- 0:06:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is there any effort statute in Tennessee Code annotated
- 0:06:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that would prevent that from happening?
- 0:06:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, Mayor.
- 0:06:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So the school system's budget cannot be reduced through any of these actions.
- 0:06:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It has to either maintain its current levels or increase.
- 0:06:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Again, I don't know the county's budget as well as I know the city's,
- 0:06:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and this is on the back of the handout, the sales tax retention handout,
- 0:07:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but it would appear that county property tax funding to the schools
- 0:07:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript has not really kept up, and that if the county was still supporting the schools
- 0:07:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript at the same rate that they were 10 years ago,
- 0:07:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this would be a very different conversation right now.
- 0:07:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Other questions?
- 0:07:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Brown, you're recognized.
- 0:07:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 0:07:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So is this just to put the group together to discuss this with the county?
- 0:07:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Or is this saying we're withdrawn?
- 0:07:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Because the way it's worded is, you know,
- 0:07:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript withdrawn from certain prior local option sales tax agreements and resolutions
- 0:07:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and establishing a joint city-county committee.
- 0:07:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's where my concern is, is, you know, just in the title it says
- 0:07:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we're withdrawing from it and we want to put a committee together to discuss it.
- 0:08:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So are we putting a committee together to discuss the timeframes, or are we withdrawing?
- 0:08:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The withdrawal brings everybody to the table in good faith.
- 0:08:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay, yes, that is part of it, and that course of action appears.
- 0:08:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm not a lawyer, and I'm certainly not a judge,
- 0:08:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but it appears to be supported by recent case law here in Tennessee.
- 0:08:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So this would be us saying we want to withdraw from this,
- 0:08:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then this committee would get together and determine the timeframe.
- 0:08:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right, and the way the resolution was written was,
- 0:08:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the committee had a clear objective defined from the start.
- 0:08:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So get to a certain point by this date, and the rest of the way by this date.
- 0:08:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's the intent, that's the plan there.
- 0:08:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right, thank you.
- 0:08:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Lovato.
- 0:08:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 0:08:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just want to address one thing that the sponsor of this stated,
- 0:08:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and that this was not in the referendum.
- 0:09:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I have a copy of the referendum on Section 6.
- 0:09:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It says,
- 0:09:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The county judges hereby authorized and instructed to contract with the proper officials of the city of Clarksville
- 0:09:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to provide the division of half of the proceeds of the additional tax levied by this resolution
- 0:09:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not allocated to the schools as follows.
- 0:09:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript 20% thereof earmarked for instructional salaries in the county's general purpose school fund,
- 0:09:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the county's statutory share to be allocated to the unified school system,
- 0:09:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the remainder to go to the city general fund.
- 0:09:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript To me, that reads like,
- 0:09:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in 1977, the voters did, in fact, vote to give that money to the school system.
- 0:09:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Now, if we can unilaterally pull out of this agreement without going on a referendum,
- 0:09:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript maybe we can, but I think it's inappropriate that we would.
- 0:09:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's all I have to say.
- 0:09:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Streitman.
- 0:09:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:09:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I want to keep it short because I know the council person from Ward 1 needs to go,
- 0:10:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and I can always ask more questions and give my comments next week.
- 0:10:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I do want to ask the question, and this might be for Mr.
- 0:10:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Bittner, and I know it's been asked before, but can the county sue us for doing this?
- 0:10:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Go ahead, Councilman.
- 0:10:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Do you want from?
- 0:10:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It doesn't matter to me.
- 0:10:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I've asked the same question, and yes, the county could sue the city
- 0:10:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to force the city to continue turning over sales tax revenue
- 0:10:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that is meant to be providing upgrades and maintenance on the infrastructure
- 0:10:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that was used when those tax dollars were paid,
- 0:10:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and continue sending it to them, just like we can sue them to get out of this agreement.
- 0:10:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that's just me as a taxpayer paying legal fees, either way you look at it.
- 0:10:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know that it was stated before that this money could potentially,
- 0:10:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript if there was a lawsuit filed, this money could potentially just get tied up
- 0:11:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and no one is able to use it.
- 0:11:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That would probably be more of a question for Mr. Bittner.
- 0:11:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is that the case?
- 0:11:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr. Bittner, question for you.
- 0:11:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Based on the precedent that happened in, there was an agreement in, excuse me, 1988.
- 0:11:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The lawsuit was filed in 1996, and the money was tied up.
- 0:11:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript For how long?
- 0:11:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The agreement, I think it was a couple years, is what I would say, more than likely.
- 0:11:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't have the exact time the agreement was filed.
- 0:11:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But it was for the period of July 1st, 1996, through the period of June 30th of 2015,
- 0:11:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and resulted in a settlement with the city and the county.
- 0:11:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I would imagine that the process of a lawsuit would take at least 18 months to two years.
- 0:12:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So that would mean any of that money collected during that time
- 0:12:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript would just not be able to be used by the city?
- 0:12:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean, it would probably be escrowed, would be my guess.
- 0:12:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think that's what they did last time.
- 0:12:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The trustee.
- 0:12:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The trustee held on to the money and was not turned over to the city.
- 0:12:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Or the, in this case, the school board, county, however you want to look at it that way.
- 0:12:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Correct.
- 0:12:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 0:12:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Like I said, I'll have more to say.
- 0:12:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't want to hold him up tonight.
- 0:12:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I do have more comments to make next week.
- 0:12:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 0:12:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any more comment or question?
- 0:12:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Zacharias, final words?
- 0:12:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Not final, but closing arguments.
- 0:12:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If any questions, if anybody has any doubts or issues,
- 0:12:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript with the numbers, I would just encourage you to send those to Ms. Canfield
- 0:12:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and she'll send them to me so I can have answers ready next week.
- 0:12:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 0:12:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you very much.
- 0:13:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:13:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
- 0:13:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Council, for allowing us to move this up.
- 0:13:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're now going to get back to the top of the agenda,
- 0:13:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the Planning Commission report.
- 0:13:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr. Tindall.
- 0:13:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The first item is Item A, Ordinance 19-2026-27.
- 0:13:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr. Tindall.
- 0:13:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor and City Council.
- 0:13:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript After we enjoyed a short month last month,
- 0:13:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we do have several cases before you this month.
- 0:13:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript First case up is Planning Commission Case Z30-2026.
- 0:13:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is the application of Anba Carrillos, LLC, 1.82 acres, two parcels.
- 0:13:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And it's two parcels that are currently zoned R1 and R3.
- 0:13:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they're requesting R2A for both of them.
- 0:13:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a tract of land.
- 0:13:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript On the eastern frontage of Ringgold Road,
- 0:13:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript approximately 1,500 feet north of 101st Airborne Division Parkway.
- 0:14:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is in the Lafayette-Peters Mill planning area.
- 0:14:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The applicant's statement is to create additional housing
- 0:14:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and a better use of the property.
- 0:14:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is in Council Ward No. 3.
- 0:14:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Here's the future land use map for the area.
- 0:14:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's a suburban neighborhood, majority around here.
- 0:14:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And here's the current zoning.
- 0:14:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You'll see a portion of that southern lot is R3.
- 0:14:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There was a duplex or triplex ages ago on there.
- 0:14:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And there is a single-family home on the property.
- 0:14:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We'll show you.
- 0:14:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I want you to pay specific attention to the curve in the road there.
- 0:14:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That'll be some of the discussion we have.
- 0:14:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That is looking back towards 101st Parkway,
- 0:14:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the hillside on your left there with the power poles.
- 0:14:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's the two parcels.
- 0:14:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Here it is a little closer.
- 0:14:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's closer on the left.
- 0:14:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is it on the right as you approach from the other direction.
- 0:14:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That driveway up there is not part of this application.
- 0:15:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's another parcel there.
- 0:15:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's the current house on the property.
- 0:15:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It sets up there.
- 0:15:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And the entryway to it is,
- 0:15:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we're looking at the driveway here back towards 101st.
- 0:15:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And the driveway is there on the right.
- 0:15:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's an unpaved driveway right before that sign.
- 0:15:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So you can see the site distance here is less than desired.
- 0:15:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This was actually submitted to the Planning Commission two months ago.
- 0:15:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Staff was not ready to make a recommendation on this.
- 0:15:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And we asked the engineers,
- 0:15:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript what can you do to improve the site distance?
- 0:15:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And how are you going to get more than one home or two homes on this property?
- 0:15:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they did some work.
- 0:15:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And in our files, we have it where they are going to grade down this hillbank here on the right
- 0:15:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and increase the site distance over 500 feet in both directions.
- 0:15:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's going to actually improve the area out there.
- 0:15:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They will have to relocate a few poles as they would anyway with the development they're going to do.
- 0:16:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then they'll have a singular common access driveway for,
- 0:16:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I believe, five lots is what they're looking for in the end.
- 0:16:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Department comments.
- 0:16:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Street Department requested shared access and cited the limited driveways at the subdivision entryway.
- 0:16:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Department of Energy said overhead electric lines run on this property.
- 0:16:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They'll have to be relocated or easements required before

- 0:16:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript No other department comments or concerns in the school system listed their capacities of Ringgold Elementary,
- 0:16:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Kenwood Middle and Kenwood High School.
- 0:16:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Historic estimates could be as much as seven lots.
- 0:16:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The applicant anticipates five lots just due to the topography there.
- 0:16:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's probably closer to what the applicant says.
- 0:16:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Staff does recommend approval.
- 0:16:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It is a consistent with the overall goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan.
- 0:16:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The adoptive adopted comprehensive.
- 0:16:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The plan description indicates that an increase in residential density is appropriate along
- 0:17:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript major transportation corridors.
- 0:17:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The property is in a current configuration has limited site distance for access.
- 0:17:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The applicants engineer has provided a grading proposal that removes a portion of the hillside and relocates
- 0:17:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the shared driveway at the apex of the curve to address future access concerns related to the site distance.
- 0:17:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The proposed R2A single-family residential request places a singular zoning district across both parcels to
- 0:17:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript provide an opportunity for continuity continuity of development and removes the multi-family residential potential from
- 0:17:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this property.
- 0:17:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript As presented this request provides an equivalent density or a reduction from the current as shown by the applicant
- 0:17:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript while changing all future uses to single-family residential construction.
- 0:17:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The Planning Commission also recommends approval.
- 0:17:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Streetman you're recognized.
- 0:17:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you,
- 0:17:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mayor.
- 0:17:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr.
- 0:17:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Tyndall.
- 0:17:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Could you talk a little bit about how it can be developed?
- 0:17:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript As it's currently zoned.
- 0:18:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes,
- 0:18:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you've got two lots out there right now.
- 0:18:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The R1 lot to the north is large enough to divide it into two and the R3 is large enough for two duplexes or two
- 0:18:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript triplexes if done on two driveways total.
- 0:18:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So there is potential right now of six to eight units.
- 0:18:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And again,
- 0:18:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the five to seven single-family falls just again within that same tolerance of amount of units.
- 0:18:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And based on how it is.
- 0:18:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And of course what they've given us showing that they could do as it's currently zoned.
- 0:18:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Those two triplexes which would consist of six units obviously would have one shared driveway.
- 0:18:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then you'd have a singular could have a singular shared driveway for each of the other two,
- 0:18:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript correct?
- 0:18:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Possibly or single families could share a driveway.
- 0:18:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You'd have two or three driveways as is the proposals to have one singular access easement,
- 0:18:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not a driveway for the five or six units.
- 0:18:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That will put on there.
- 0:18:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And as we can see nowhere else along this road is any multifamily.
- 0:19:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Correct.
- 0:19:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 0:19:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you,

- 0:19:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Marquis,

- 0:19:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:19:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I had a similar question for of clarification because we did receive two different drawings in our package.
- 0:19:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript One does show the two triplex and the other are the five individual lots.
- 0:19:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So is this just them showing us what could be versus what they want to do?
- 0:19:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes,
- 0:19:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript exactly what that is that was presented at the Planning Commission.
- 0:19:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's why we included.
- 0:19:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It in your packets,
- 0:19:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but the one with the two buildings back-to-back is the current potential and the other one is what they want to do with the property.
- 0:19:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Once they've regrade the hillside.
- 0:19:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay,
- 0:19:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you.

- 0:19:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I was looking at that picture also.

- 0:19:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know,
- 0:19:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I wouldn't want any triplexes there.
- 0:19:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But so looking at the other one,
- 0:19:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's got the shared driveway.
- 0:19:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it looks like it just have the one access and then a kind of like a,
- 0:19:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript private road in front to split between them.
- 0:20:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:20:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that driveway will be split evenly amongst the five parcels in an HOA to maintain it for everybody.
- 0:20:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay,
- 0:20:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you.

- 0:30:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript substations usually aren't owned by the co-op like that.
- 0:30:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But as we were talking and we pulled it up on our phone on stratum,
- 0:30:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it says CEMC.
- 0:30:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I think I made that correction before they voted on it to say it was CEMC.
- 0:30:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But initially we would have thought it was TVA,
- 0:30:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but it's CEMC of the owner to the north.
- 0:30:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I gotcha.
- 0:30:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Can you just talk me through the procedure of the RPC and the council initiating a rezone?
- 0:30:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Because I think this is my.
- 0:30:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript First rodeo.
- 0:30:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah.
- 0:30:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:30:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's not a common use and I wouldn't recommend it for a lot of purposes except to clean up,
- 0:30:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript say,
- 0:30:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a government owned piece of property or something that is so incorrectly zoned.
- 0:30:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We did it in the county about three or four months ago.
- 0:30:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There was a group of properties out at Bagwell Road.
- 0:30:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think it is where the thirsty goat is across the street about 13 homes that were all zoned C5.
- 0:30:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And there was a couple vacant properties.
- 0:31:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And no one could build homes on there.
- 0:31:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But rather than rezone one at a time,
- 0:31:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the Planning Commission came and rezone the whole neighborhood back to our one that the homes were now not grandfathered.
- 0:31:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They were allowed by right and corrected that zoning can be initiated by one of three ways.
- 0:31:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The applicant can ask for it.
- 0:31:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The planning commissioners can request it at a meeting and take a vote and start the process as an applicant and city council can also recommend.
- 0:31:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That a property be rezoned as a body and refer it to the Planning Commission for study as an applicant.
- 0:31:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So those are the three different methods that we allow properties to be rezoned.
- 0:31:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If the owner objects to this initiation,
- 0:31:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript then what happens?
- 0:31:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We would let the Planning Commission know.
- 0:31:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So for instance,
- 0:31:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript when we did this in the county,
- 0:31:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we sent out letters immediately to all those 13 houses and owners in that area.
- 0:32:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We put up a special.
- 0:32:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Sign with a special map on it.
- 0:32:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We actually paid for a different sign instead of the normal zoning sign.
- 0:32:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they were aware that this is for the neighborhood and we put two signs at the entryway so they could easily see it.
- 0:32:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript With this one.
- 0:32:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We actually we have a good relationship with CEMC.
- 0:32:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I will just start with a direct call to them and say this is what they want to do.
- 0:32:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They'll probably pass it through their lawyers.
- 0:32:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm not anticipating you get it back next month because they're probably going to want to talk about it a little more.
- 0:32:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It probably doesn't change anything since they're tax exempt.
- 0:32:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they're they pay ad valorem anyway.
- 0:32:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's not like it's going to change their property tax rate,
- 0:32:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which they don't have a property tax as a co-op.
- 0:32:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But if they objected,
- 0:32:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we bring that to the Planning Commission and they could vote it up or down based on the applicant.
- 0:32:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But ultimately the authority is with you all.
- 0:32:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So if you do feel it's right,
- 0:32:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript even though an applicant may object,
- 0:32:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript depending on the facts of the case,
- 0:32:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you can make a determination.
- 0:32:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes or no.
- 0:32:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's all I have.
- 0:32:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:32:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Good questions.

- 0:34:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Here's the future land use map of the area.
- 0:34:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The dark orange is an urban neighborhood.
- 0:34:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's a little more denser than a single family.
- 0:34:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Or see a suburban neighborhood and then you have corridor commercial and they're very dark orange around there.
- 0:34:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I might have been you next slide.
- 0:34:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I believe that was it.
- 0:35:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:35:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript if you got another five hammer some duct tape,
- 0:35:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we can fix it.
- 0:35:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:35:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
- 0:35:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And here's the current zoning for the area there.
- 0:35:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There have been several are six and are four requests in the area over the past.
- 0:35:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'll say about four years which have passed in this area Milan LLC purchased the.
- 0:35:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The larger of the oh one you'll see there's another oh one parcel.
- 0:35:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That is still the church out there.
- 0:36:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The church sold off the gymnasium and they want to rezone this portion on West Rossview and Fairview into our six similar to across the street.
- 0:36:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is the property looking at the curve where it turns at Fairview.
- 0:36:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Here's the bottom of Fairview West Rossview to your right Fairview to the north.
- 0:36:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's some existing are six that were built in the last two or three years.
- 0:36:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So this will be on the left side of the street up there.
- 0:36:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And there's looking back though currently driveway.
- 0:36:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This area is within the rezoning and they'll have to either relocate drive parking on the property or really rework their parking lot.
- 0:36:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They could still use it as zoned are six for now.
- 0:36:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But if they do build it with our six they'll just have to make sure they meet the parking they need for their site in the back there sidewalk
- 0:36:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and some other improvements may be required when they come through for subdivision.
- 0:36:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I will determine that when they come in to the Planning Commission.
- 0:37:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that's just from the back of Trenton Road looking forward.
- 0:37:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's a drainage area already on the property that this would likely drain towards staff comments and off-site lift station upgrade will be required
- 0:37:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and gravity sewer main extension per see gas and water.
- 0:37:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Street Department said no access to Trenton Road and there's an injection.
- 0:37:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well already on site CD.
- 0:37:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript He said there's overhead and underground electrical lines along the property relocation
- 0:37:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript or easements may be required before construction on this property
- 0:37:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and the school system listed their capacities of Glen Ellen Kenwood middle
- 0:37:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and Kenwood High School.
- 0:37:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This would remove 01 and its potential uses
- 0:37:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and permit higher density single-family residential in the area.
- 0:38:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Our estimate would be 18 units.
- 0:38:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Again, this is an urban neighborhood and staff does recommend approval.
- 0:38:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The request is consistent with the overall goals
- 0:38:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and objectives of the adopted comprehensive plan.
- 0:38:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The proposed R6 request is a logical extension of the existing R6 zone
- 0:38:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and aligns with the urban neighborhood future designation.
- 0:38:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The Planning Commission also recommends approval.
- 0:38:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman chicane of you recognized.
- 0:38:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 0:38:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr. Tindall.
- 0:38:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I went out there a couple of times and I looked at this on Fairview.
- 0:38:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I see the sign almost like behind the the old gym, right?
- 0:38:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The block is what it's called now.
- 0:38:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So.
- 0:38:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So are we talking about building units back there
- 0:38:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on that little space going all the way down behind the gym to to Trenton Road?
- 0:38:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript No, sir.
- 0:38:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There you go.
- 0:38:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Just this hatched area.
- 0:38:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So from the gym towards Wilma Rudolph,
- 0:38:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript all these units would face Fairview
- 0:38:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and I can't say whether or not they'll have driveways
- 0:39:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript or because they already have an access up there on the other portion of Fairview.
- 0:39:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Would it be?
- 0:39:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript An alleyway possibly.
- 0:39:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I don't know.
- 0:39:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We haven't seen a subdivision yet on the property,
- 0:39:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but they would have the option to do either when they develop.
- 0:39:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So he's going to use part.
- 0:39:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The plan is to use part of that the pavement then for our six.
- 0:39:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, sir.
- 0:39:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And as you see the driveway entry,
- 0:39:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they may have to relocate that driveway a little bit or have an easement over it,
- 0:39:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which indicates maybe that corner lot uses that driveway as their driveway as well.
- 0:39:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then the others may face like I said,
- 0:39:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we haven't seen a final plan on this or even a preliminary.
- 0:39:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Plan yet of their layout,
- 0:39:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but we anticipate it would be very similar to what's across the street.
- 0:39:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And what type of road improvements would need to be done to Fairview?
- 0:39:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Since there is miss because favorite is very very small
- 0:39:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and we just load it up.
- 0:40:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Chiquita.
- 0:40:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You'll ask the question.
- 0:40:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, Mr.
- 0:40:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Smith with this proposed are six.
- 0:40:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What type of road improvements would need to be done?
- 0:40:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript To this either by the applicant or by the city.
- 0:40:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript No, definitely by the applicant.
- 0:40:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They would have to widen to both our standards fire department standards and school system standards,
- 0:40:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which the minimum I think we've kind of compromise on about 22 feet.
- 0:40:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay, so that's so how much of Fairview are they going to widen just in front of their property or yes,
- 0:40:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they would only I mean to the intersection.
- 0:40:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So as long as they were they wouldn't carry West Rossview all the way around to Wilma Rudolph.
- 0:40:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We wouldn't obligate to do that because we can see that road is very,
- 0:40:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript very small.
- 0:40:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's okay.
- 0:40:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:40:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:40:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mayor.
- 0:40:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Brown.
- 0:40:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You recognized.
- 0:40:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you,
- 0:40:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mayor.
- 0:40:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I kind of had some of the concerns about,
- 0:40:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know,
- 0:40:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it taken away that parking lot for that.
- 0:40:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The center there because,
- 0:41:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know,
- 0:41:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript depending on what ends up being done with that,
- 0:41:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you're taking half of that parking lot.
- 0:41:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And if they are required to add some parking somewhere else.
- 0:41:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well,
- 0:41:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the other side of that building is the retention.
- 0:41:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Where the water is going.
- 0:41:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So then I don't see where they're going.
- 0:41:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They'd be able to replace that parking lot in another area on that property.
- 0:41:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And you know,
- 0:41:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript adding 18 units on that road.
- 0:41:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is it's going to be tough.
- 0:41:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean,
- 0:41:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm sure they've designed it to where they could get them in there.
- 0:41:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But you know,
- 0:41:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you're losing a lot of that parking lot for that.
- 0:41:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Oh one building and who's to say,
- 0:41:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know,
- 0:41:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript would they be forced to replace that parking with it being taken away?
- 0:41:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Where are they going to put all respectfully council member?
- 0:41:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is their property to do with what they want to.
- 0:41:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And if they decide they want to reduce their parking,
- 0:41:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it would be up to them to figure out if they need to add it
- 0:42:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript somewhere else or come up with some other uses that don't need as
- 0:42:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript much parking.
- 0:42:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I think it's their problem to solve for themselves.
- 0:42:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And if they decide to develop a portion of it one way,
- 0:42:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm sure they're knowing the group that's doing it.
- 0:42:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I'm sure they've already looked at that.
- 0:42:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah.
- 0:42:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:42:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Haywood,
- 0:42:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you're recognized.
- 0:42:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you,
- 0:42:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mayor.
- 0:42:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript My issue.
- 0:42:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I went out there twice.
- 0:42:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Once I exited Fairview to Trenton,
- 0:42:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the other I exited Fairview to Wilma,
- 0:42:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then I whipped down to West Rossview,
- 0:42:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but I'm not even going to ask about Trenton Road because we all know
- 0:42:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript there's no light or anything going to go right there.
- 0:42:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But that stop sign is impossible to get out.
- 0:42:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I think I was behind like eight or nine,
- 0:42:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript nine cars.
- 0:42:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So adding 18 houses is concerning.
- 0:42:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then same thing with Fairview.
- 0:42:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If I mean,
- 0:42:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript unless we make it a right turn only,
- 0:42:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but there's no way you can get out of even rush hour traffic,
- 0:42:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript slow traffic to get on Wilma.
- 0:42:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So that's my concern.
- 0:42:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript 18,
- 0:43:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript one to two vehicles up to 36 vehicles.
- 0:43:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This extra is very concerning.
- 0:43:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's a lot.
- 0:43:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Marquis,
- 0:43:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you're recognized.
- 0:43:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:43:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just wanted to address that.
- 0:43:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript A comment.
- 0:43:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I actually volunteered with a nonprofit for two years,
- 0:43:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and we used that building gym center there.
- 0:43:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I can tell you that it's hardly used where that parking lot maintain is empty.
- 0:43:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So the top of that,
- 0:43:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's a two floor building and the top is just empty.
- 0:43:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's nothing,
- 0:43:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript no furnishings,
- 0:43:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript nothing up there.
- 0:43:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they only use the gym at the bottom and like some type of event room kind of thing with the bathroom.
- 0:43:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So,
- 0:43:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so they don't really have a high traffic volume for the church.
- 0:43:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I would understand why they would reduce their parking because they don't need it.
- 0:43:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And yeah,
- 0:43:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so I'm not concerned as to why they decided because having been there for two years,
- 0:43:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they never used it.
- 0:43:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Just excess space for them.
- 0:43:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So yeah,
- 0:43:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's all.
- 0:43:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman chicane.
- 0:44:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Have you recognized?
- 0:44:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
- 0:44:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
- 0:44:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mayor to the previous speaker,
- 0:44:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the that Jim now no longer belongs to the church.
- 0:44:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's been gutted out.
- 0:44:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's it's actually a business incubator.
- 0:44:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Now it's called the block.
- 0:44:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So a lot of the space is taken up in there.
- 0:44:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But again,
- 0:44:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they may not need that big parking lot.
- 0:44:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But my question was just are they going to tear some of the parking lot up?
- 0:44:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Because that's why I noticed the sign.
- 0:44:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:44:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Other comment or question.
- 0:44:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I have a question for Mr.
- 0:44:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Smith.
- 0:44:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The lower part of that road took on water last spring.
- 0:44:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes,
- 0:44:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript sir.
- 0:44:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I'm concerned about adding more hard surface as a runoff.
- 0:44:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean,
- 0:44:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is there a concern about that about what they what they're planning to do?
- 0:44:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We've approached the state.
- 0:44:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We've told them to make some improvements to that area.
- 0:44:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You know,
- 0:44:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Trenton Road in the area went under by a couple inches.
- 0:45:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The PD was out there,
- 0:45:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know,
- 0:45:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript detouring folks around some of the development that went on out there added a tremendous amount of impervious that helped complicate that issue.
- 0:45:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This would be an opportunity for them to make some potential improvements.
- 0:45:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The back side of that site to provide additional capacity for the area.
- 0:45:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So there are some opportunities that we might talk to them about as they develop.
- 0:45:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's a tremendous amount of space that's not utilized that could provide compensatory cut.
- 0:45:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If the owner was willing to do.
- 0:45:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So are we in a position to require them to do that?
- 0:45:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I we can is with respect to this site.
- 0:45:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they have to right now the site minus the existing parking and impervious.
- 0:45:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They would have to compensate for what they're adding.
- 0:45:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We could ask for them to provide an additional cut.
- 0:45:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Seeing us out of the property.
- 0:45:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They are the property owner for that entire complex.
- 0:45:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is that a sinkhole that we're looking at right there?
- 0:45:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Those are all part of the same aquifer across the street.
- 0:45:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's an injection well there.
- 0:45:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's a couple of sinkholes on the property.
- 0:45:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's it's a good example of our karst region.
- 0:46:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is that part?
- 0:46:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:46:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that doesn't spec it out as well.
- 0:46:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:46:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's part of the grading plan.
- 0:46:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is that part of what me on enterprises bought that?
- 0:46:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They own that entire corner.
- 0:46:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They own that.
- 0:46:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:46:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they okay.
- 0:46:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:46:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the church is carved out there portion of the large gym space.
- 0:46:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And
- 0:46:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that that's all owned by the same party.
- 0:46:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So again,
- 0:46:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript opportunity potentially if they're willing through the planning process to provide additional company store cut behind that gym space would be great for that area.
- 0:46:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well,
- 0:46:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they will improve the roads.
- 0:46:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We know,
- 0:46:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but it's the drainage.
- 0:46:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's concerning at this point.
- 0:46:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That part down there by Cliffon and that Myers took on water.
- 0:46:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It didn't do and they were pushing water out of their front door.
- 0:46:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 0:46:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
- 0:46:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:46:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:46:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman.
- 0:46:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Hey,
- 0:46:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript would you recognize thank you mayor to your point?
- 0:46:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Actually isn't up the hill and north of this proposed development.
- 0:46:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We just approved like a ton of commercial and townhomes or whatever behind that right off of Trenton across from was it public a few parcels away.
- 0:47:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You'll see the R one corner and then right at the top of the map here.
- 0:47:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You'll see that seat five with the orange in the back.
- 0:47:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That was the part that was the parcel.
- 0:47:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You zoned those five acres up there and I know when we approved it,
- 0:47:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they said that they were going to retain.
- 0:47:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All water on their property.
- 0:47:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is it possible that that could trickle down south down the hill?
- 0:47:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's sort of a Ridge up here and some of the water goes north some go south.
- 0:47:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What that plan has done and we have a final site plan on that that they might.
- 0:47:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Construct eventually it will slow the water.
- 0:47:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It will retain the water longer and let it out at a more even pace as Mr.
- 0:47:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Smith was saying with this project and this gives a better.
- 0:47:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Better idea.
- 0:47:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You can see the size of the Milan property goes all the way to Trenton Road.
- 0:47:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There is an injection.
- 0:47:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well, there is an existing base and when these properties come in for subdivision,
- 0:47:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we will look at that as part of the drainage review that the street department will do and either like I said,
- 0:48:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript make it deeper make sure the injection wells working.
- 0:48:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It should actually help this corner of the site.
- 0:48:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't not can't speak for the region.
- 0:48:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's a lot going on in this corner right down here.
- 0:48:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
- 0:48:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 0:48:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, councilman Lovato.
- 0:48:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you mayor.
- 0:48:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm having a hard time with this to your point about the flooding because.
- 0:48:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We have no say in how they mitigate any future flooding.
- 0:48:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is there a way to legally request them to get all of those designs in such emplacement?
- 0:48:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Before we approve a rezoning?
- 0:48:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is that for Mr.
- 0:48:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Tindall?
- 0:48:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr.
- 0:48:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Bittner or for just putting it out in the air?
- 0:48:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, whoever we answer that.
- 0:48:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well, you all had a case recently,
- 0:48:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I believe on old Russellville Pike,
- 0:49:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript correct?
- 0:49:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that came with a drainage study because the planning commission even wasn't confident on that one that said,
- 0:49:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we need to know what you're doing here.
- 0:49:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If that is a piece of information you need,
- 0:49:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think after the public hearing next week,
- 0:49:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's an opportunity to request.
- 0:49:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Let's defer and request additional information.
- 0:49:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You've also done it for traffic studies in the past when you didn't get something that had a traffic study.
- 0:49:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well, I believe the one that you're referring to on old Russellville,
- 0:49:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the the owner did those studies preemptively and came to us with those.
- 0:49:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I will not vote on this until I see a full scope of their plan.
- 0:49:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I don't know if you want to go back to them.
- 0:49:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And share that with them and get them ready for it before next week,
- 0:49:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but I feel like we need to see exactly what their plan is before.
- 0:49:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm sure they're watching,
- 0:49:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but I'll call them.
- 0:49:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I suspect they're watching very closely and listening.
- 0:50:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Give them a number.
- 0:50:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's probably so you want to tell them what you want.
- 0:50:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It sounds like a layout and a drainage plan.
- 0:50:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Maybe not the full grading yet,
- 0:50:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but they may not have that quite yet,
- 0:50:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but just an idea of what they're going to do with it.
- 0:50:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Marquis.
- 0:50:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah.
- 0:50:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I just looked up real quick.
- 0:50:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Quick on the county assessor site and they seem to own that whole R1 parcel,
- 0:50:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript except of the little cut off at the top.
- 0:50:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So since they own all that like southern portion
- 0:50:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and it looks like they're just partitioning the right side for their development,
- 0:50:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript wouldn't they have more of a possibility of some of this correction,
- 0:50:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a lake with floodwater and anything else because they have the space since they own it.
- 0:50:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, they have plenty of land to do with.
- 0:50:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What they need to to address this drainage issue.
- 0:50:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The question I think is coming up.
- 0:50:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is that because it's currently wooded and there's no curb and gutter out there.
- 0:50:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What is that?
- 0:50:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You know,
- 0:50:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is there additional drainage coming onto the property from somewhere else?
- 0:51:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And can you also address those questions?
- 0:51:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think when they do come in with a plan or show you a plan,
- 0:51:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which they'll have a week to work on,
- 0:51:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think they'll be able to bring something or email it ahead of time.
- 0:51:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They'll be able to address whether or not they can do it.
- 0:51:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They have the land to do it.
- 0:51:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's just a matter of what they will have to do digging deeper,
- 0:51:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know, making more volume and slowing the water down.
- 0:51:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay. Yeah.
- 0:51:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Because just from the picture it you wouldn't realize that they have the extra land
- 0:51:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because but the rest of it is also their property.
- 0:51:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, okay.
- 0:51:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So then there is some type of ability to do something just depends on what they're trying to do.
- 0:51:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah.
- 0:51:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This,
- 0:51:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that bait that building in that base in right there is part of this larger tract.
- 0:51:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah,
- 0:51:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's about a six acre tract in total.
- 0:51:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're asking for about an acre and a half for the R6.
- 0:51:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 0:51:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I thank you.
- 0:51:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any more comment or question regarding this zoning case?
- 0:52:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're now ready for item.
- 0:52:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript He ordinance 23 2026 27.

- 0:52:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you,

- 0:52:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is in Council Ward number two.
- 0:52:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is part of the Lafayette features Mill planning area.
- 0:52:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The applicant statement is our to a would allow for the best use of the property.
- 0:52:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We believe this aligns with the growth plan and surrounding areas.
- 0:52:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Here's the larger view of the area.
- 0:52:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Here's the future land use map darker mid-orange is urban neighborhood darker orange on Dover Road is corridor commercial and then the yellow to the west is suburban neighborhood.
- 0:53:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And here's the current zoning map are one older neighborhood very gridded out and then are two are one a to the west and then a lot of C2 and C5 along Dover Road.
- 0:53:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Come on across the street.
- 0:53:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Your property is on the right here as we look back toward Dover Road up on the left corner as a recently completed retail center that didn't put sidewalk through their portion of their frontage and on Dover Road in the property.
- 0:53:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Here's on the left as you look further into the community.
- 0:53:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's an older wooded lot.
- 0:53:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's no current structures on this property.
- 0:53:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Department comments.
- 0:53:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript CDE did mention overhead electric lines along the property side.
- 0:53:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript property and relocation or easements are required at construction and the school
- 0:54:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript system provided their capacities of Liberty Elementary, New Providence Middle
- 0:54:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and Northwest High School. Historic estimates would put this at four units.
- 0:54:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I've been talking to the engineer. At R2A you can definitely get three. You most
- 0:54:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript likely can get four. You can't quite get five. Let me go back to the closer view
- 0:54:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and explain a little more here. So you see the parcels across the street or up
- 0:54:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the road. If this didn't have that little jog in there, that takes about 3,000
- 0:54:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript square feet off the property, the jog of the road. They would be able to divide it
- 0:54:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in two properties, similar to everything else out there, 15,000 square foot
- 0:54:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript minimums. But without that, they can only, even right now at R1, just do one parcel
- 0:54:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on here. So they're asking from one to three or four. Theoretically, it
- 0:54:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript could be two if they just had that road not curve right there. So that's the
- 0:54:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript situation out there. One lot into three or four lots in front of this property.
- 0:55:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Staff does recommend approval. The request is consistent with the adopted
- 0:55:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript comprehensive plan. The R2A single-family residential request aligns with the
- 0:55:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript urban neighborhood designation and the adopted comprehensive plan indicates
- 0:55:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that increases in residential density are appropriate along major
- 0:55:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript transportation corridors, in this case near Dover.
- 0:55:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Road Planning Commission also recommends for approval.
- 0:55:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Chandler. Thank you, Mayor. It's not in my ward, but real close. I'm
- 0:55:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript looking total acreage 0.57. Put five houses in there, a tenth of an acre. I would
- 0:55:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript say something, but it wouldn't go over. Open bathroom door and your door opens
- 0:55:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript into the street.
- 0:55:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There is a plethora of signatures, written complaints. I'll be voting no, and the
- 0:56:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript simple reason I'm voting no is I don't see how you can put any kind of
- 0:56:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript dwelling worth having on a tenth of an acre, and that is on paper. And
- 0:56:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the number of people that have commented, yeah, there was a statement made
- 0:56:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a while ago about neighborhood rundown a little bit, but you've got to understand
- 0:56:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a lot of these people living on Collingwood Drive have been living there
- 0:56:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript for 30 or 40 years. And yes, you know it's all over town. Properties are getting
- 0:56:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript rundown but
- 0:57:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but that shouldn't have anything to do with the way that they feel.
- 0:57:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I will go with, because they're our constituents.
- 0:57:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're the ones that we have to listen to.
- 0:57:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And scroll through there and look at the number of signatures.
- 0:57:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The number of, and Collinwood Drive is not that long of a street.
- 0:57:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It looked like to me they probably got two-thirds or better
- 0:57:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to sign a petition or send something to us.
- 0:57:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I'll definitely vote no.
- 0:57:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 0:57:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Clonch, you're recognized.
- 0:57:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
- 0:57:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'd like to thank my council member.
- 0:57:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript He said about 80% of what I was going to say.
- 0:57:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would first of all like to make a correction that Mr. Tindall and I discussed
- 0:57:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that I brought up in the RPC.
- 0:57:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I pulled numbers from CMCS's website on school capacity, and I was wrong.
- 0:57:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm a fallible human being.
- 0:57:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Liberty is at 93%, and this is from the RPC.
- 0:58:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They prefer to cap it at 85%.
- 0:58:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript New Prov is at 79%.
- 0:58:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Again, 85% is the cap that they like to be in.
- 0:58:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Northwest is at 83%.
- 0:58:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Also, the developer did say, well, we'll put a sidewalk in front of that property.
- 0:58:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's a resident in here that I went and looked at it Sunday,
- 0:58:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript walked it with her, had a great discussion with her.
- 0:58:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's a ton of residents on Collinwood.
- 0:58:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They don't want that.
- 0:58:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I also concur respectfully our feelings about the depreciation of a neighborhood.
- 0:58:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I live over there.
- 0:58:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So you're talking about my backyard.
- 0:58:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I find that disheartening.
- 0:58:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's no way that anyone, even at four, there's no room for children.
- 0:58:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's no room for the parking would be right on the street.
- 0:58:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That first.
- 0:58:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Row in, if I have the picture up here, it is a corridor, the commercial corridor,
- 0:59:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but that property is the neighborhood.
- 0:59:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The resident that I spoke to lives directly across from that.
- 0:59:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It is directly behind a wonderful coffee shop in that complex on Dover Road.
- 0:59:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But if we're saying it's a commercial corridor, how far back are we going to push?
- 0:59:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If we're pushing one property back, well, then now we're pushing two properties back.
- 0:59:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Then what is it?
- 0:59:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Three properties back?
- 0:59:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That is not the neighborhood.
- 0:59:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And everyone has heard me say this so many times.
- 0:59:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript North Clarksville is, we are slightly disenfranchised.
- 0:59:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript A lot of older people, a lot of grandparents, a lot of people that have lived there their entire lives.
- 0:59:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And to say a completely wooded area as well with the canopy coverage in that area,
- 0:59:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we're going to rip all this down and put in five or four tall and skinnies,
- 0:59:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think is egregious.
- 0:59:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Just because we can do it doesn't mean we should.
- 1:00:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The residents also don't have a problem with a single family dwelling, with a yard.
- 1:00:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Call me crazy.
- 1:00:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's North Clarksville.
- 1:00:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I will also be a no.
- 1:00:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I do encourage everyone to look at the petitions.
- 1:00:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The resident that I spoke to is in this room right now.
- 1:00:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And she is very passionate about the neighborhood as well as the residents on that street.
- 1:00:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're a little different breed in North Clarksville.
- 1:00:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I appreciate that.
- 1:00:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The.
- 1:00:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Community coming together and saying, you know, Eric, it's not a no.
- 1:00:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's a hard no for us.
- 1:00:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That was all I have, sir.
- 1:00:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 1:00:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Lovato, you're recognized.
- 1:00:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 1:00:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just want to clarify the number of units because I feel like the agent said three units at the RPC.
- 1:00:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, I mean, we've heard five, we've heard four.
- 1:00:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript How much is he planning?
- 1:00:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well, they said three at the floor.
- 1:00:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Could squeeze in four.
- 1:00:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, that's correct.
- 1:00:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't think they can.
- 1:00:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They can get five due to the depth and the lot area that you'll need.
- 1:00:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They have the total square footage, but they don't have the depth because it actually goes down to 90 feet at the bottom and 110 plus at the top.
- 1:01:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, when you have to average out those lot sizes, you'll look at four as the maximum.
- 1:01:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would not treat five as the maximum.
- 1:01:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'd treat it as four.
- 1:01:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But three is what they're planning.
- 1:01:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Three is what they said.
- 1:01:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And how many can they get on there with R1?
- 1:01:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right now, the way the property lies, just one.
- 1:01:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It cannot.
- 1:01:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It cannot be divided.
- 1:01:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Again, R1 requires 15,000 square feet.
- 1:01:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript 0.57 is 27,000 square feet.
- 1:01:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're around 3,000 square feet short of a second lot.
- 1:01:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If it were R1A, they could do it.
- 1:01:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript R2, they could do two.
- 1:01:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I haven't looked at R2A if it could, or R2, if it could do three lots.
- 1:01:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I think that's a question.
- 1:01:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If the applicant truly wants just three, we have to find that zone that gets them three.
- 1:01:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 1:01:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's all I have.
- 1:01:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I haven't done that math.
- 1:01:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm sorry.
- 1:01:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Holliman, you're recognized.
- 1:01:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 1:01:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, R2A, there's no other R2A in the area from what I've seen.
- 1:02:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, like, it's chiseling away at our neighborhoods.
- 1:02:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Like, we've seen this time and time again up here.
- 1:02:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You say, oh, well, it's just one rezone, you know.
- 1:02:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean, it's not going to hurt anything.
- 1:02:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then, you know, next month, it's like the same area.
- 1:02:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Oh, you approved that R2A, so you've got to approve this new R2A rezone.
- 1:02:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean, we've seen it time and time again.
- 1:02:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And, you know, like, I've heard the area described as run down or, you know,
- 1:02:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript whatever adjective you want to use.
- 1:02:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But, you know, it's like, in my mentality, it's like, okay, if that's my neighborhood,
- 1:02:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's like, yeah, if the neighborhood's run down, guess what?
- 1:02:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's my run down neighborhood, you know.
- 1:02:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm proud of it.
- 1:02:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, like, and I think that's, you know, just own it and be proud of it.
- 1:02:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's y'all's neighborhood, and I think y'all should have a say.
- 1:02:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, I will be voting no.
- 1:02:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 1:02:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Streetman, you're recognized.
- 1:02:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 1:02:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr. Tindall, this isn't actually an annual.
- 1:02:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Anyway, though, pushing back the commercial corridor, right?
- 1:02:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's correct, and I know the council member mentioned that over here.
- 1:03:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript These are just single-family homes.
- 1:03:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're smaller.
- 1:03:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's not a multifamily project, and it's definitely not a strip mall or a retail building.
- 1:03:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, per our future land use map, the corridor stops with all the properties that front Dover Road.
- 1:03:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's not into the property.
- 1:03:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And we would be against it if they brought in a C1 or C2 on this, according to that.
- 1:03:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And you may or may not be able to answer this question, but what size homes could they build if they were to build three to four lots here?
- 1:03:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, R2As are a little bigger than the R6s.
- 1:03:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're going to be probably five to ten feet wider and maybe have a two-car versus a one-car garage like an R6 would have or just a parking pad.
- 1:03:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, I encourage y'all, if you have a builder you talk to that builds those kind of homes, go out and tour them.
- 1:03:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Go see what they look like from the street.
- 1:03:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But it's definitely not a larger home.
- 1:03:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's going to be under 1,500 square feet or less.
- 1:04:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Think of it as a starter home plus.
- 1:04:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We always talk about the need for affordable housing and infill development, and that's why the Planning Commission staff was for this because it meets both those criteria in an area that has utilities, has roads, and can support three more houses in an area that has hundreds.
- 1:04:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 1:04:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, sir.
- 1:04:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Clonch, you recognize it?
- 1:04:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
- 1:04:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, at 1,500 square feet, and I'll go high and then I'll go low, at 250 a square, that's a $375,000 home.
- 1:04:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That is not affordable housing in North Clarksville.
- 1:04:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript At 1,500 square feet, at 200 a square, that's $300,000.
- 1:04:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Also, we're getting a little closer, but we're still not quite there.
- 1:04:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I say 250, 200 a square, that's a cost to build a house.
- 1:04:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You take the overall price divided by square footage, and that will tell you the average.
- 1:04:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Across the street, it wound up being, I think it was 245 a square that it cost.
- 1:05:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, we're looking at 375.
- 1:05:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That is not affordable housing for North Clarksville.
- 1:05:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, understanding, I did participate in a recent Sycamore event where they talked about if we squeeze out the higher end of a price point, then it creates a different need.
- 1:05:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I also respect that.
- 1:05:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But, again, people don't move to Clarksville to move to North Clarksville and pay $375,000 for a house.
- 1:05:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That is in a different area.
- 1:05:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That is a working class community.
- 1:05:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Understanding, it is not the commercial corridor.
- 1:05:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It is one step behind that.
- 1:05:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But, again, I don't, I don't, that is not it, in my opinion.
- 1:05:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, sir.
- 1:05:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 1:05:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any more comment or question about that?
- 1:05:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Collingwood drives a beautiful street.
- 1:05:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript A lot of mature.
- 1:05:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Trees and homes.
- 1:05:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're single level homes, mostly.
- 1:06:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Built very well.
- 1:06:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Brick.
- 1:06:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Built very well.
- 1:06:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Big yards.
- 1:06:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
- 1:06:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Anything else, Mr. Tindall?
- 1:06:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript No, and I just want to rebut one comment.
- 1:06:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't know where the comment about a rundown neighborhood came from.
- 1:06:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It did not come from the staff or the planning commission.
- 1:06:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, I just want to make sure, clear the air for anyone watching or anyone here.
- 1:06:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That did not come from us.
- 1:06:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know it was mentioned a few times here.
- 1:06:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I believe this is our last case.
- 1:06:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, yes.
- 1:06:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Do you have any questions?
- 1:06:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Give us a call.
- 1:06:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.

- 1:08:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Fun story.
- 1:09:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This was a safety audit.
- 1:09:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This tracks back to it.
- 1:09:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's a safety audit that the state did of their own volition of eight, seven or eight years ago.
- 1:09:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they're finally there.
- 1:09:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's their own projects, too.
- 1:09:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's not just our own that we work with them on, but it's a little bit delayed.
- 1:09:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So this is largely just a widening and a signalization at Glendale,
- 1:09:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but they're going to go ahead and redo pavement markings and signage and stuff like that,
- 1:09:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript bring everything up to snuff from just past Gary Matthews to Queens Bluff.
- 1:09:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You get a decel lane coming onto Glendale.
- 1:09:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You get an acceleration lane coming off, and then you get a left turn lane off of the bypass into Glendale.
- 1:09:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript With some queuing room there.
- 1:09:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Ultimately, like any of the state projects, when it's all done, we've got to sign off on the improvement
- 1:09:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and take over the infrastructure so the signal will be ours at that time.
- 1:09:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I want to point out we still don't have the signal at 76 in Madison.
- 1:09:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's still not been dedicated to us for us to get in there and change the timing and stuff.
- 1:09:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it may be a while before that happens.
- 1:09:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Streetman.
- 1:09:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm assuming that we'll make sure that they do get the signals in the right place for the lanes
- 1:10:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript as opposed to how they originally did it for.
- 1:10:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript For 76 and Madison.
- 1:10:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We hope so.
- 1:10:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 1:10:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yep.
- 1:10:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I will say that Councilman Holloman, when he first got on the council,
- 1:10:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript he was advocating for this particular improvement.
- 1:10:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And TDOT did their safety audit.
- 1:10:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And a decade later, they're making the improvement.
- 1:10:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they're working at light speed.
- 1:10:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
- 1:10:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's right.
- 1:10:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Chairman Streetman.
- 1:10:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Sorry, sir.
- 1:10:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I apologize.
- 1:10:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That was fast.
- 1:10:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We've already done.
- 1:10:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Item B.
- 1:10:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Resolution 27-20-26-26.
- 1:10:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript A resolution approving a memorandum of understanding agreement between the City of Clarksville
- 1:10:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and Centerstone of Tennessee, Inc.
- 1:10:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript for the Behavioral Health Mobile Crisis Team Partnership Grant Program.
- 1:10:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Award the Finance Committee voted in favor of approval.
- 1:10:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Do we want Chief Burdine to come up here and say a couple of words on this?
- 1:10:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript He's itching to come up here.
- 1:11:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, Chief Burdine, come scratch your itch.
- 1:11:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know he always likes to come up here.
- 1:11:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Are you eating, too?
- 1:11:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's like lots of money in school.
- 1:11:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You know, you just come in with food and you just take it.
- 1:11:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I understand.
- 1:11:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah.
- 1:11:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Chairman Streetman.
- 1:11:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Chief Burdine, will you talk to us a little bit about this resolution before us today, please?
- 1:11:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This, if you've probably heard in other agencies going with a co-sponsor or co-responder.
- 1:11:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Brain's going crazy.
- 1:11:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But basically, we will be partnering with Centerstone and they will be hiring most likely three employees
- 1:11:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and they will be working for Centerstone, but they will be co-responding with police officers to certain calls.
- 1:11:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And the reason for it is a lot of times when people are in crisis and we show up in uniform,
- 1:11:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it sometimes can add stress to that.
- 1:12:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And if we have licensed therapists that can come in and be part of that equation,
- 1:12:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript one, it can.
- 1:12:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It can reduce us responding to the same house over and over.
- 1:12:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Number two, it could get somebody with continuity and consistency responding to those with a mental health.
- 1:12:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And number three, it could be more efficient for us as patrol officers as we respond to calls.
- 1:12:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It might make the call shorter because we have the skill set right there with our therapist as we respond.
- 1:12:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So this disagreement, this resolution,
- 1:12:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it allows out all the inner workings with how we're going to work with them.
- 1:12:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And we're still working on the policy on our end,
- 1:12:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but this sets us forward in motion so we can move forward with this unit.
- 1:12:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Questions?
- 1:12:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Questions for the Chief?
- 1:12:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Brown, you're recognized.
- 1:12:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
- 1:12:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So will they be riding with an officer for the entire shift waiting for these calls?
- 1:13:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, the way we plan on doing it,
- 1:13:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript if they hire three, they'll be spread out throughout the time
- 1:13:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and most likely work in days and some evenings and potentially even nights.
- 1:13:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And our idea is, and this is, we've still got some brainstorming to do with Ms. Carr,
- 1:13:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript with Senator Stone, but they would probably do ride with the officers,
- 1:13:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but there also would need to be admin time because as they respond to these calls,
- 1:13:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript there's also going to be follow-ups with these individuals that they're dealing with.
- 1:13:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they can't do those follow-ups and the administrative work inside the police car.
- 1:13:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So we will have a dedicated office within our most likely off International Boulevard
- 1:13:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that they will have access to to come in and do their follow-ups
- 1:13:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and connect back with those people in crisis they dealt with while responding with the officer.
- 1:13:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And more than likely, those that are CIT trained will be ones that were riding with these therapists.
- 1:14:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 1:14:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Clonch, you're recognized.
- 1:14:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
- 1:14:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I have more of a comment.
- 1:14:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think this is fantastic.
- 1:14:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Long overdue.
- 1:14:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If you're coming out to see me, it's probably not my best day.
- 1:14:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So the ability to have a third party there to maybe deal with some behavioral issues,
- 1:14:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's my middle name, is fantastic.
- 1:14:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I think this is a great step in the right direction for Clarksville, Tennessee.
- 1:14:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 1:14:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
- 1:14:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, Senator Stone is a great partner with the city.
- 1:14:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They've done some crisis intervention training, Suicide Alliance, working with us.
- 1:14:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mm-hmm.
- 1:14:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they provide an invaluable service.
- 1:14:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mayor, I agree 100%.
- 1:14:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We've been talking about this for years.
- 1:14:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's just now, it's funding, you know, it boils down to, and this allows us to move forward with that.
- 1:14:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, this is a federal grant, as we know, that they approached us and said we wanted to partner.
- 1:14:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mm-hmm.
- 1:14:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript $750,000 a year for four years?
- 1:14:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think it's three years.
- 1:14:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Three years?
- 1:14:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Maybe four years.
- 1:14:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 1:14:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Three or four years.
- 1:14:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Three or four.
- 1:14:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Exactly.
- 1:14:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript One of those.
- 1:14:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 1:14:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any more questions or comments?
- 1:14:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Four.
- 1:15:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Chief.
- 1:15:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Four.

- 1:16:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Council, with your permission, I would like Mr. Crosby to come up and explain why he brings such long ordinances to us.
- 1:16:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well, can you take a stab at interpreting that for us first?
- 1:16:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Maybe not?
- 1:16:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'll do my best.
- 1:16:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're updating their code to include language with Pool Spa and just making it compliant with their international code.
- 1:16:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 1:16:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr. Crosby, you want to say ditto, or do you agree with what she said?
- 1:16:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would really like to say.
- 1:16:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Chief Montgomery took my lunch money, too, and I really need to stop getting it back.
- 1:16:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript No, you got it right.
- 1:16:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're updating our international building code.

- 1:17:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Required by the state to stay within a certain number of years to what the state has adopted.
- 1:17:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is an update because last year the state updated, and this will bring us into compliance for the next round.
- 1:17:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.

- 1:18:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.

- 1:18:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript First of all, I apologize for making Chief Burdine nervous.
- 1:18:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
- 1:18:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I do that sometimes without meaning to.

- 1:18:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We are, the only change in ours, we're capturing the word approval, where it was permits, just to clean up some language internally because we do not issue permits.

- 1:19:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a requested transition report to be given in february 2027 happy to answer any questions
- 1:19:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript question is this are they coming up with a pay plan for their department it is not a pay plan
- 1:19:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it is a recommendation based on other middle tennessee cities and looking at what they're
- 1:19:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript doing and giving a fair comparison to the city council it's pretty time consuming it is okay
- 1:19:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's why it's february okay what about the other 16 departments i know you've got three
- 1:19:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript resolutions for your three on the public safety end yeah this is not playing favorites but all
- 1:19:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript three of these departments have some serious concerns that are growing and i would be happy
- 1:20:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to see some of the other 16 departments that are coming up with a pay plan for their city council
- 1:20:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript such transition reports from all departments but as the chair in hearing all of these growing
- 1:20:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript concerns i felt these three were pretty urgent for the new council and the new mayor to hear
- 1:20:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript transition plan report report
- 1:20:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript transition from one administration to the next is that what you're talking about yes okay okay
- 1:20:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript councilman streetman thank you i'll go ahead and say this for each of the three and so instead of
- 1:20:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript repeating myself
- 1:20:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i talked to each of the three department heads in regard to this they were all supportive
- 1:20:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of these and it was something they all felt that they could come up with relatively quickly
- 1:20:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because this is what they deal with all the time in regards to understanding their department needs
- 1:20:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and what they're facing and that i will say the sponsor of this is correct in regards to these
- 1:20:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript three departments during budget time this was some of the ones that we heard about during the budget
- 1:20:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript time as well as you hear about you hear about the next year there's certainly a lot of work ahead of
- 1:21:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript from others is that these three are departments that are in dire need we know that building and
- 1:21:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript codes is in need of more staffing we've heard about uh clerksville fire and rescue and i know
- 1:21:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that chief montgomery's been working through that and trying to set up uh different levels there
- 1:21:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and i know too from talking with uh chief burdon in regards to their continually losing experienced
- 1:21:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript officers to other departments throughout the state because of what they're facing with what
- 1:21:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we pay here and versus what's being paid in the other areas and in each one of those departments
- 1:21:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it has an effect on all of the staff that's there so like i said i talked to every single one of
- 1:21:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript them today in regards to this and they were all supportive of these resolutions and didn't feel
- 1:21:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they'd have any issue with doing it again these are things they work through regularly and you
- 1:21:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript probably get to us even quicker than february
- 1:21:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but i understand having that timeline in place and that way everybody's allowed to i mean gives
- 1:22:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript them the opportunity to be ready prior to them presenting to us in may for the budget season
