[1) PLANNING COMMISSION]
[00:00:06]
TYNDALL. >> I WILL INVITE YOU TO TAKE YOUR SEATS, PLEASE. WELCOME TO THE EXECUTIVE SESSION OF THE CLARKSVILLE CITY COUNCIL, FEBRUARY 24TH, 2022.
SEEMS LIKE WE WERE JUST HERE. BEFORE I INTRODUCE MR. TYNDALL, LET ME RECOGNIZE A COUPLE SPECIAL GUESTS HERE TO EARN A BADGE IN TROOP 1412, KATHLEEN AND LEAH.
IF YOU WILL STAND SO WE CAN RECOGNIZE YOU.
AFTER THIS. OKAY, MR. TYNDALL AND MISS COOK.
>> WE ARE HERE WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT.
FIRST WE GIVE YOU A QUICK UPDATE OF WHERE WE ARE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO DATE. SARAH COOK, LONG-RANGE PLANNER, SPEAR HEADING THIS AS THE PROJECT MANAGER AND SHE WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU A COUPLE SLIDE UPDATES IN FRONT OF YOU IS A MA LITTLE IN A FOLL MANILA FOLLOWED MANILA FOLDER. I WILL TURN IT OVER TO SARAH
>> ALL RIGHT, SO CENTRAL PURPOSE OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS TO REPLACE THE 23-YEAR-OLD 1999 LAND USE PLAN.
THIS DOCUMENT IS SN SIGNIFICANT BASEBECAUSE IT IS THE BASIS FOR PROVIDING A FRAMEWORK FOR CITY AND COUNTY.
ADMITTEDLY, PARTS OF IT ARE NO LONGER RELEVANT OR CURRENT.
THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WILL REPLACE THIS DOCUMENT AND BE THE FOUNDATION RPC RECOMMENDATIONS. BUT THE MAIN PURPOSE OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS TO LAY OUT A COMMUNITY-WIDE VISION FOR NOT ONLY WHERE WE GROW BUT ALSO HOW WE GROW.
THIS VISION SHOULD SERVE TO GUIDE THE WISEST AND BEST USE OF OUR LAND IN COORDINATION WITH INFRASTRUCTURE, SERVICES, OPEN SPACE, AND COMMUNITY GOALS. THIS VISION WILL BE SHAPED BY PREVIOUS PLANS AND STUDIES, PUBLIC INPUT AND A THOROUGH EXISTING CONDITIONS ANALYSIS. AND ONCE WE HAVE THIS PLAN IN PLACE, IT WILL ALLOW US TO EVALUATE OUR CURRENT TOOL KIT OF ZONING DISTRICTS AND OTHER DEVELOPMENT MECHANISMS TO SEE IF OUR EXISTING TOOLS THAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE NOW WILL ENABLE THE I AM PIMPLEMENTATION FOR WIDE VISN AND GOALS ARE THERE MISSING TOOLS AND ONES THAT MIGHT NEED TO BE UPDATED.
THE PLAN WILL ALSO PROVIDE A FRAMEWORK FOR SMALLER NEIGHBORHOOD AND AREA PLANS AND HELP TO IDENTIFY AND PRIORITIZE NEEDED INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS.
OKAY. SO WE HAVE OUTLINED AN EIGHT-STEP PROCESS. STEP 8 AT THE BOTTOM THERE IS REALLY AN ONGOING PROCESS OF COMMUNITY INPUT AND FEEDBACK LOOPS THROUGHOUT THE PLANNING PHASES.
SO STEP ONE AND TWO, PROJECT INITIATION AND EXISTING CONDITIONS, DURING THE PROJECT INITIATION, OUR CONSULTANT TEAM WHICH I WILL PROVIDE AN INTRODUCTION TO IN A LITTLE BIT, THEY WILL BE VISITING OUR CITY AND COUNTY FOR THREE DAYS.
THEY WILL BE IN WORKSHOPS WITH APPOINTED AND ELECTED OFFICIALS.
OUR THREE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN COMMITTEES, WHICH INCLUDES A STEERING COMMITTEE COMPRISED OF OUR PLANNING COMMISSIONERS, TECHNICAL COMMITTEE WHICH IS OUR DEPARTMENT HEADS, CITY AND COUNTY DEPARTMENT HEADS, AND A CITIZEN AND STAKEHOLDER COMMITTEE WHICH IS A DIVERSE GROUP OF CITIZENS FROM ALL AGES, ALL BACKGROUNDS, AND DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHIES OF THE CITY AND COUNTY. AND THEN THEY WILL ALSO BE MEETING WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS WHICH INCLUDE THE SCHOOL SYSTEM, APSU, FORT CAMPBELL, THE INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT BOARD AND OTHERS. DURING THE PROJECT INITIATION PHASE, THEY ARE ALSO HELPING TO PREPARE AN EXISTING CONDITIONS ASSESSMENT WILL PROVIDE THE BASELINE FOR FUTURE LAND USE NEEDS AND RECOMMENDATIONS. TOPICS COVERED ARE DEMOGRAPHICS AND POPULATION TRENDS, ECONOMIC AND MARKET ANALYSIS TRENDS, TRANSPORTATION AND UTILITIES, ENVIRONMENT AND OPEN SPACE.
[00:05:25]
THE CONSULTANT TEAM WILL BE HERE THROUGH THE END OF MARCH THROUGH APRIL 1ST, A THREE-DAY VISIT, AND RETURNING IN THE SUMMER TO HOST A SERIES OF COMMUNITY-WIDE VISIONING SHERETS, THAT WILL BE LOCATED IN DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHIES THROUGHOUT THE CITY AND COUNTY AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AND RESIDENTS AT LARGE.AND DURING THESE VISIONING WORKSHOPS, WE WILL BE SETTING OUR KEY GOALS AND THESE GOALS MIGHT BE ORGANIZED INTO SEPARATE BUCKETS, SAY, TRANSPORTATION, HOUSING, ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES OR NEEDS. ET CETERA.
THEN OUR GOALS, OUR COMMUNITY-WIDE GOALS AND PRIORITIES WILL DEFINE THREE DIFFERENT FUTURE GROWTH SCENARIO MODELS. EACH ONE OF THOSE GROWTH MODELS WILL BE, THEN, COMPARED TO HOW THEY MEASURE UP TO OUR COMMUNITY VISION AND GOALS. AND THEN WE WILL CHOOSE AN IDEAL GROWTH SCENARIO. > AND STEPS 5 AND 6, WE WILL BE SETTING AN AREA PLANNED FRAMEWORK.
WE WILL BE TAKING THE WHOLE VISION FOR THE CITY AND COUNTY AND BREAKING THAT DOWN INTO MORE ZOOMED IN AREAS.
THE LAND USE PLAN FROM 1999 IDENTIFIED 17 DIFFERENT AREAS.
AND THE IDENTITY AND THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS AND THE NAMING OF SOME OF THOSE HAS SHIFTED IN THE PAST 23 YEARS.
SO WE WANT TO ASSESS THE BOUNDARIES OF THOSE DIFFERENT AREAS AND PROVIDE A FRAMEWORK FOR FUTURE STUDY AND AREA PLANS.
>>> AND THEN IN THE FINAL STEP, WHICH 18 MONTHS FROM NOW, IT IS ABOUT A YEAR AND SIX MONTH PROCESS, SO JULY 23, WE WILL BE CREATING DRAFT PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS AND THEN MOVING INTO A FINAL PLAN AND ADOPTION. AND IN EACH ONE OF THESE STEPS, THEY WILL BE A POINT AT WHICH PEOPLE CAN PROVIDE PUBLIC INPUT AND PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. OKAY.
SO I MENTIONED WE BROUGHT ON BOARD A CONSULTANT TEAM.
H ORUSEL AND LEVINE. AWARD WINNING FIRM.
WE PUT OUT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS.
WE GOT NINE PROPOSALS FROM THAT QUEREQUEST AND WE SET UP A RANKG SYSTEM AND HOUUSEL AND LEVINE WS CHOSEN.
THEY WORK WITH OVER 400 COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND DEVELOPED OVER 140 COMPREHENSIVE PLANS.
AND THEY GIVE US ACCESS TO SOME PROPPROPRIETARY SOFTWARE.
ONE OF THEM SENARO MODELING, WHICH I MENTIONED EARLIER, AND THEN CROWD SOURCE MAPPING, SO THIS IS A WAY TO GATHER THOUSANDS OF DIFFERENT DATA POINTS OR LONGER PERIOD OF TIME THAN YOUR TRADITIONAL TOWN HALL STYLE MEETING OR SHERET WHERE YOU ARE MEETING OVER A TWO-HOUR PERIOD AND ONLY A CERTAIN NUMBER OF PEOPLE WILL BE IN THE ROOM. WE WILL BE HAVING IN-PERSON WORKSHOPS BUT HAVE THIS MAPPING TOOL AVAILABLE AS WELL.
AND HAVING THESE VISUALIZATIONS CAN HELP US UNDERSTAND THE PLAN MORE. MASO WE ARE IN THE PROJECT INITIATION PHASE. AND WE DO HAVE SOME OPPORTUNITIES FOR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT NOW.
WE ARE STARTING TO COLLECT ISSUES AND OPPORTUNITIES AND WE HAVE TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK, AND THEN YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR OUR E-MAIL LIST OR YOU CAN FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK TO STAY INFORMED THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS.
SO OUR SURVEY INCLUDES THESE DIFFERENT TOPICS.
FUTURE GROWTH AND LAND USE, HOUSING AND NEIGHBORHOODS, ECONOMIC DEVELOP MANY, TRANSPORTATION MOBILE,
[00:10:01]
INFRASTRUCTURE AND EWE TILTS, A, PARKS, NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENT. IT IS A QUICK 15-MINUTE SURVEY.AND THEN OUR MAPPING TOOL HAS A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT PINS ON THERE FROM COMMUNITY ASSETS TO KEY DESTINATIONS, PRIORITY DEVELOPMENT SITES, TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENTS OR OTHER. YOU CAN PUT YOUR OWN.
YOU CAN ACCESS THIS VIA OUR WEBSITE WHICH YOU SEE ON THE TBOMENT RBOTTOM RIGHT OF THE SC. OR YOU CAN JUST SCAN THE QR RODE AND GO RIGHT TO IT. BUT WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO VISIT OUR WEBSITE AND TO CREATE YOUR MAP OF ISSUES AND OPPORTUNITIES, ANSWER THE QUESTIONNAIRE, AND KEEP IN TOUCH WITH US ON FACEBOOK OR THROUGH THE E-MAIL LIST.
ALL RIGHT, ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME?
>> THANK YOU, WE HAVE TIME FOR JUST A COUPLE QUESTIONS.
COUNCIL MEMBER BUTLER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
>> THANK YOU, MAYOR. SO THE CROWD SOURCE MAPPING THAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT, THAT IS THE COMMUNITY MAPPING THAT WE ARE DOING, THAT WE HAVE BEEN DOING FOR TWO WEEKS NOW?
>> UH-HUH. >> YOU GUYS SENT US THAT.
AND THEN I'M NOT SURE IF YOU ARE AT LIBERTY TO DISCUSS THIS, BUT I WAS WONDERING, THIS HOUSEAL LAVIGNE, CAN YOU GIVE US AN
EXAMPLE OF SOME OF THE CITIES? >> TWO OF THE PLACES THAT THEY WORKED WITH REALLY STRUCK US WHEN THEY CAME AND TALKED TO US, ONE WAS LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS, WHICH -- NOT LITTLE ROCK, BENTONVILLE, HOME TO WALMART. THEY ACTUALLY -- JOINT GROUP OF WALMART AND THE CITY BROUGHT HOUSEAL LAVIGNE, THEY WERE HAVING TROUBLE RETAINING TALENT. IF YOU WORK FOR WALMART, A LOT OF COMPANIES THAT WORK WITH WALMART ALSO HAVE HEADQUARTERS THERE. AND FOLKS WOULD COME FOR TWO OR THREE YEARS AND LEAVE. THE CITY AND WALMART PUT THEIR HEADS TOGETHER AND SAID IT IS BECAUSE WE LACK A SENSE OF PLACE AND STUFF TO DO HERE. THEY REALLY HAVE TURNED THAT CITY AROUND IN THE LAST DECADE. AND THEN ANOTHER PLACE, EL PASO COUNTY, COLORADO, HEAVY MILITARY COMMUNITY.
MUCH LIKE OURS, URBAN CENTERS AND VERY RURAL FRINGE, ABOUT TWICE THE SIZE OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY BUT IT HAS ARMY AND AIR FORCE IN THE COMMUNITY. THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH YOU ARE A
URBAN ANDRURAL INTERESTED US. >> COOL, THANK YOU, GUYS.
>> THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION.
>> EXCELLENT PRESENTATION. THAT WAS ONE OF MY QUESTIONS FROM THE PREVIOUS SPEAKER. I WOULD LOVE TO FIND OUT, ARE THERE ANY VIDEO ASSETS THAT WE CAN MAKE AVAILABLE? A LOT OF TIMES WE PUT AMAZING STUFF UP, SIGNS GO UP AND THEN PEOPLE -- I SEE A VERY INFORMATION DENSE PRESENTATION SO I'M WONDERING FOR THOSE WHO ARE DIFFERENT LEARNING MODALITIES, THERE ASSETS AVAILABLE THAT MAKE IT USER FRIENDLY. SO I LOOK 12 TIMES, JUST TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING.
I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO COME BACK, WE DIDN'T KNOW, YOU PUT THIS AMAZING TIME INTO THESE AMAZING RESOURCES, THE QR CODE, I'M WITH IT, MOST PEOPLE, LIKE, WHAT, WHAT DO I DO? IF YOU CAN SPEAK TO THE MARKETING ROLLOUT OF HOW DO WE BEST INFORM ALL OF OUR CONSTITUENTS AT EVERY LEVEL OF LIFESTYLE AND ECONOMIC STATUS, WHAT'S GOING ON.
>> I LIKE TO SAY THAT WE ARE BUILDING THE PLANE WHILE WE ARE FLYING IT HERE. AND SARAH IS THE DUCK ON THE WATER. PADDLING HARD, SHE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT. EVERY DAY THERE IS SO MUCH TO DO. WE ARE SCHEDULING THE UPCOMING MEETING AS THEY ARE COMING HERE, MEETING LOCATIONS, SCHEDULING THE STAKEHOLDERS TO COME TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
EVEN HAD TO GET LUNCH ONE DAY. WE ARE DOING ALL THIS OTHER PLANNING. HE CAN PROBABLY INCORPORATE SOME SORT OF VIDEO AT SOME POINT. WE DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION BUT MAYBE SOMEONE COULD HELP US.
OUR WEBSITE IS CHOCK-FULL OF INFORMATION.
WE HAVE FLIERS, HOPE YOU CAN PUT IT OUT THERE AND SHARE IT.
IF YOU HAVEN'T LIKED OUR FACEBOOK PAGE, SHARE.
THE MORE INFORMATION UP FRONT. , HAVING COMMUNITY BUY-IN IS A TOP PRIORITY.
>> I WOULDN'T WANT TO SEE ALL THE AMAZING WORK THAT YOU ARE DOING, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS, THIS IS AWESOME.
I THINK THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR.
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ANSWER THE CLARION CALL.
>> I LOVE THE IDEA OF A GENERAL VIDEO IN REGARDS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THAT'S PROBABLY SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DISCUSS ABOUT PUTTING TOGETHER.
I WILL SAY THAT ON OUR WEBSITE, WE HAVE A WORKSHOP AND PRESENTATION LINK AND THERE IS A VIDEO THERE OF US GIVING A
[00:15:02]
PRESENTATION TO OUR COMMITTEES ABOUT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND INTRODUCTION TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.IT IS ABOUT AN HOUR LONG. >> WHERE IS THAT?
>> IF YOU GO TO OUR PAGE AND YOU GO TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
>> COMP PLAN. >> ON OUR HOMEPAGE, WORKSHOPS
AND PRESENTATION. >> GOT IT, THANK YOU.
>> THERE'S A VIDEO ON THERE. THERE'S ALSO TUTORIAL VIDEO FOR THE COMMUNITY MAPPING EXERCISE AND YOU CAN CLICK ON A LINK THAT WILL TAKE YOU DIRECTLY TO THE MAP TOOL AND THEN YOU CAN CLICK ON A VIDEO FOR A LITTLE TUTORIAL.
THANK YOU, MISS COOK, THANK YOU MR. TYNDALL FOR THE EXCELLENT PREVIEW. NOW READY FOR THE PLANNING COMMISSION ITEMS, FIRST ITEMS IS ORDINANCE 87.
MR. TYNDALL. >> IT IS AN EXTENSION OF THE R2 AND IT IS A PARCEL FRONTING RINGGOLROAD AND ISHEE DRIVE INTERINTERSECTIONS, CITY COUNCIL WARD NO. 3.
THERE IS AN EXIST HOME ON THIS SITE AND THE APPLICANT STATEMENT IS TO INCLUDE THIS PORTION OF THE PROPERTY WITH A SUBDIVISION TO THE NORTH AND THE EXISTING HOUSE WILL REMAIN.
SO WHAT YOU CAN'T SEE ON THIS MAP, THIS LITTLE FORESTED AREA NORTH OF THIS PARCEL, THAT DOES HAVE A PRELIMINARY PLAN APPROVAL FROM A COUPLE MONTHS AGO FOR SEVERAL HOUSES BACK THERE AND THE APPLICANT JUST WANTS TO ADD THIS PORTION FOR A COUPLE MORE LOTS, ALL BE ACCESSED INTERNALLY.
NO NEW DRIVEWAYS PROPOSED ON RRINGGOLD ROAD.
HERE IS AS YOU ARE APPROACHING THE SITE, PROPERTY UP THERE BEFORE THE BEND. THAT'S THE HOME THAT WILL REMAIN. THIS IS ANOTHER SHOT OF THAT LOOKING UP RINGGOLD ROAD. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS AND CONCERNS, THE STREET DEPARTMENT SAID THEY RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE FURTHER REQUIREMENTS OR COMMENTS DURING THE GRADING PERMIT OR SITE REVIEW PHASE. AND NO OTHER COMMENTS WERE RECEIVED. HISTORIC ESTIMATES WOULD BE FIVE UNITS. THE APPLICANT -- HISTORIC ESTIMATES IS FOUR, APPLICANT ESTIMATES IS FIVE UNITS ON THE PROPERTY. STAFF DOES RECOMMEND APPROVAL.
CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND USE PLAN.
THE PROPERTY IS BEING COMBINED WITH THE ADJACENT PROPERTY TO THE NORTH TO CREATE AN ACCEPTABLE ENTRANCE TO THE PROPOSED SUBDIVISION. THIS REQUEST IS NOT OUT OF CHARACTER WITH THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN.
ADEQUATE INFRASTRUCTURE SERVES THE SITE AND NO ADD VEERS ADVERE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES IDENTIFIED. PLANNING COMMISSION LOOKS FOR
APPROVAL. >> QUESTIONS, SEEING NONE, ITEM
2, ORDINANCE 88, MR. TYNDALL. >> THE APPLICATION OF DENNIS VAN WORMER. THIS IS .52 ACRES, CURRENTLY ZONED R3 AND REQUESTING TO GO TO R6.
IT IS NOT AN EXTENSION OF R6 BUT THERE IS R6 IN THE AREA.
FOREST STREET AND CHURCH STREET. IT IS A FORMER SINGLE FAMILY HOME SITE AS YOU WILL SEE IN THE PICTURES.
THE APPLICANT STATEMENT IS TO IMPROVE THE AESTHETICS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, REMICROSOFT REMOVE CURRENT STRUCTURE AND REPLACING WITH SEVERAL SINGLE FAMILY HOUSES.
THIS IS WHERE THE HOUSE DID STAND.
THEY RECENTLY GRADED THE PROPERTY OUT.
THIS IS ANOTHER IMAGE OF THE CORNER.
THIS IS LOOKING BACK FROM CHURCH STREET TO THE CORNER.
PROPERTY JUST PAST THE CHURCH ON THE LEFT.
AND THERE'S A LITTLE CLOSER VIEW UP THERE.
THE COMMENTS AND CONCERNS FROM THE DEPARTMENT, THE STREET DEPARTMENT SAID THE SIDEWALK WILL BE REQUIRED PER R6 ON CHURCH STREET. WE REQUEST MAKING COMMENTS DURING THE GRADING PLAN PROCESS. ALSO COMMENTS OF THE SCHOOL SYSTEM. HISTORIC ESTIMATE IS FOUR.
APPLICANT DID NOT PROVIDE AN ESTIMATE BUT FOUR WOULD BE PRETTY MUCH THE MAXIMUM YOU COULD GET ON THAT MUCH ACREAGE.
STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. THE PROPOSED ZONING REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND USE PLAN.
NOT OUT OF CHARACTER WITH SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN.
NO ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES IDENTIFIED RELATIVE TO THIS
[00:20:02]
REQUEST. SIDEWALKS WILL BE REQUIRED AND REVIEWED BY THE DEPARTMENT.>> THANK YOU. >> PLANNING COMMISSION
RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. >> COUNCIL MEMBER ALLEN.
>> WE ARE ON 88, RIGHT? >> YES.
SO YOU SAID COMMENTS FROM NORMAM SMITH.
IT HAS A ROSS VIEW BLOCK, OKAY, NORNORMAN SMITH.
>> IT IS LIKELY NOT OVER CAPACITY LIKE ROSS VIEW SCHOOLS.
>> THANK YOU. >> COUNCIL MEMBER BUTLER, YOU
ARE RECOGNIZED. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR.
SO SINCE WE ALREADY HAVE -- SINCE THESE ARE ALL PRETTY MUCH R3 TO R6, AND I LOOKED IN THE ZONING AND I READ IT, AND I STILL NEED YOU TO BARNEY STYLE BREAK DOWN FOR ME THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN R3 AND R6 PLEASE. >> OKAY.
SO R3 IS AN OLD ZONE, FIRST ZONES THAT THE CITY HAD.
WE HAVE R1, 2, 3, AND 4. BASICALLY WITH DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DENSITY. BUT OVER TIME, THE CITY AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION HAS CHANGED THAT TO BE, I WOULD SAY MORE SIMPLER, THOUGH IT MADE IT MORE DIFFICULT, THAT NOW R1 IS LARGER LOTS, R2 SMALLER SINGLE FAMILY, BUT THEN R3 IS A TRI-PLEX ONLY.
R4 IS A QUAD PLEX OR GREATER OR FOUR UNITS ON THE SAME PROPERTY.
WHAT YOU ALSO HAVE TO DO AT THAT POINT IS LOOK FURTHER DOWN IN WHERE IT TALKS ABOUT THE EXCEPTIONS AND PERMITTED CONDITIONS, PERMITTED WITH CONDITIONS.
THESE ARE WHAT WE CALL LOTS OF RECORD.
THEY HAVE BEEN THERE FOR A VERY LONG TIME, PRIORITY 1974 MOST OF THEM. SO IF YOU ARE PRIORITY THAT DATE, YOU ARE A LOT OF RECORD. MEANING YOU PRE-EXISTING THE PREVIOUS ZONING UPDATE. WE HAD ONE IN 2010 AND ONE BACK IN THE '70S. IF YOU ARE A LOT OF RECORD, DON'T HAVE THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE ANYMORE, YOU ARE PERMITTED TO BUILD A SINGLE FAMILY OR DUPLEX IF YOU HAVE 9,000 OR 10,000 SQUARE FEET FOR A SINGLE FAMILY OR DUPLEX.
12,000 TO HAVE A TRI-PLEX. IF YOU DIVIDE A PROPERTY OR CHANGE IT IN ANY WAY, BEING WITH LOT LINES, YOU AUTOMATICALLY CAN ONLY DO THE TRIPLEX AND MEET THE CURRENT RULES.
YOU HAVE TO MEET THE CURRENT RULES UNLESS YOU ARE A LOT OF RECORD AND YOU DON'T TOUCH IT. IN A R3 LOT LIKE THIS, HALF ACRE. ONLY THEY COULD DO WITH THIS PROPERTY IS BUILD A TRI-PLEX. THEY COULD POTENTIALLY DIVIDE IT INTO TWO LOTS, BUT THE TERRAIN THERE IS A LITTLE ROUGH.
SO THEY ARE REQUESTING TO GO TO R6, CITIZEN HE HAD BUILDING THREE, BUILD FOUR, POTENTIALLY FIVE, THAT WOULD BE SQUEEZING IT IN THERE. SINGLE FAMILY HOUSES.
THAT'S WHAT THIS CASE IS REQUESTING.
I HOPE THAT ANSWERED THAT. >> YES.
THEN I KNOW WE HAVE HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THAT BEFORE.
THAT'S WHY -- BUT LET ME ASK YOU THIS, AND I'M SORRY TO THROW YOU IN THE FIRE BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT THE CLIMATE IS RIGHT NOW WITH ALL THIS. ARE YOU OF THE OPINION THAT R6 IS MORE SUITABLE TO THE AREA AND THAT IT IS MORE SUITABLE TO WHAT CLARKSVILLE, THE VISION FOR CLARKSVILLE IS MOVING FORWARD? ?BECAUSE WE ARE SEEING A LOT OF R6S COMING UP.
>> R3 IS GOING TO KEEP IT THE WAY IT IS AND YOU MAY NOT SEE DEVELOPMENT. IF THE DESIRE IS TO SEE NEIGHBORHOODS REVITALIZED, MAYBE DERELICT PROPERTIES GET DESTROYED AND BROUGHT BACK. LIKE THIS WAS.
THEY TORE DOWN THE HOUSE. OR OPEN UP PROPERTIES THAT HAVE A LOT OF EXTRA LAND BUT NOT ENOUGH FOR THAT SECOND TRI-PLEX, MAYBE CAN OFFER TWO MORE UNITS, YES.
ANDINGS R6 IS TYPICALLY GOING OWNER OCCUPIED.
DOESN'T MEAN IT CAN'T BE RENTED OUT, BUT TYPICALLY INDIVIDUAL OWNERS. TRI-PLEX IS LIKELY TO BE RENTAL ONLY. YOU HAVE A DISPROPORTION THERE WITH AFFORDABLE. SINGLE FAMILY HOUSES TYPICALLY BRING MORE OTHER THANSHIP OVER A NEIGHBORHOOD KANSAS START CHANGING AROUND SCENARIOS. SO A LOT OF THEORY GOES INTO THIS. YES, A LOT OF R3 TO R6 IS VERY COMPARABLE IN DENSITY AND YOU LIKELY WON'T SEE A CHANGE IN THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF PEOPLE IN CARS AND ALL THAT.
BUT BECAUSE IT IS R3 AND IT IS SOMETHING THE PLANNING COMMISSION WANTS TO LOOK AT AFTER THE COMP PLAN, DO WE NEED TO CHANGE THOSE RULES? DO THEY NEED TO BE LOOSENED.
A NEW ZONE OR OVERLAY. WHAT CAN WE DO TO ENTICE REDEVELOPMENT IN AREAS WE WANT TO.
IT IS NOT JUST THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
MOST OF DOWNTOWN, NEW PROVIDENCE, WILMA RUDOLPH IS R3 AND COULD BE A BARRIER TO REDEVELOPMENT.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH. I APOLOGIZE FOR PUTTING YOU IN
THE FIRE. >> COUNCIL MEMBER RICHMOND YOU
ARE RECOGNIZED. >> MUCH LIKE THE PREVIOUS
[00:25:02]
SPEAKER, I WILL KEEP YOU THERE. I SEE A CONCERN HERE.MR. TYNDALL, I HAVE HEARD THIS AND I DON'T KNOW BECAUSE I'M STILL NEW. I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT DEVELOPMENT. SO THE CONCERN BECOMES, ACCORDING TO THIS REZONING CONCERN THAT'S HERE, HOW DOES THIS IMPACT CURRENT NEIGHBORS? CURRENT NEIGHBORS OFTEN HAVE A CONCERN, THEY ARE TAKING OVER THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THEY ARE GOING TO PUSH US OUT, THE PRICES ARE GOING TO GET TO A PLACE, THEY ARE GOING TO ME OUT, GENTRIFIED, MOVED OUT.
AND THEN OTHERS MOVE IN AND TAKE OVER.
COULD YOU SPEAK TO ANY OF THAT AND HOW THAT WORKS AND I THINK THEY ARE LOOKING AT THIS CONCERN SPECIFICALLY IS THAT THIS ZONING IS THE BEGINNING OF THAT AVALANCHE.
>> PROCESS. SO YOU WILL REMEMBER A COUPLE MONTHS BACK, COUNCIL MEMBER SMITH HAD US STUDY THE RED RIVER NEIGHBORHOOD. THAT IS R3.
WE HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATING THESE VERY SIMILAR ISSUES.
>>> [INAUDIBLE] THIRD OF ALL, WE ARE TALK BEING AN ORDINANCE HERE TO CHANGE SOMETHING IN WARD 6 ON A PARTICULAR PROPERTY.
>> OKAY, MR. TYNDALL, DO YOU WANT TO MAKE YOUR POINT?
>> SURE. WE ARE ALREADY STUDYING THIS IN ANOTHER PART OF THE CITY, AS REQUESTED, AND THESE TOPICS HAVE COME UP ALREADY. GENTRIFICATION COMES IN A LOT OF DIFFERENT FLAVORS. I LIKE TO SAY YOU HAVE CAPITAL G GENTRIFICATION, AND LITTLE G GENTRIFICATION.
THIS IS WHAT I CALL THIS. YOU TAKE A HOUSE NOT FIT TO LIVE IN, YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD NEW HOUSES.
THEY ARE LIKELY NOT TO BE AS AFFORDABLE AS THE PREVIOUS HOUSE THAT WAS THERE. WHEN IT COMES TO DISPLACEMENT, YOU ARE NOT ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE DISPLACEMENT OF RESIDENTS THAT OWN THEIR HOUSES. THIS IS AN AREA WITH MORE HOMEOWNERSHIP AND OTHER PARTS OF DOWNTOWN.
THE FOLKS WHO ARE RENTERS IN SOME OF THESE HOUSES, THAT'S WHERE YOUR DISPLACEMENT HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAPPEN BECAUSE YOU HAVE A LANDLORD OR PROPERTY OWNER WHO MAY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO, QUOTE, CASH IN OR DEVELOP MORE DENSE PROPERTIES. SO IT HAS TO BE CAREFUL.
I THINK IT HAS TO BE METHODICAL AND NOT FAST PACED.
BUT THIS IS WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER INCREMENTAL DEVELOPMENT, A PROPERTY OR TWO AT A TIME.
IT IS A CLOSE PROCESS. AS YOU SEE,, THIS IS ONE OF THE BIRTH PLACES OF R6. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 OTHER -- 6 OTHER CASES WITHIN ABOUT A MILE OF THIS.
THIS WOULD BE THE 7TH. BUT NONE OF THEM ARE MORE THAN A LOT OR TWO AT A TIME. BUT THEY ARE CREATING ADDITIONAL LOTS. IF WE SAW SOMEONE COME IN AND DO AN ENTIRE BLOCK, THAT IS WHERE YOU SEE THE LARGER GENTRIFICATION. I DO AGREE, PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO SELL THEIR PROPERTY. I THINK IT IS A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR AGING HOMEOWNERS OR FOLKS WHO MAYBE THE HOME NEEDS A LOT OF REPAIR, R6 GIVES YOU MORE VALUE PER ACRE.
YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A LITTLE MORE MONEY OUTS OF YOUR PROPERTY THAN MAYBE R3 WOULD AND YOU HAVE A LITTLE MORE EQUITY TO DO SOMETHING DOWN THE ROAD, WHETHER THAT IS STAY IN CLARKSVILLE OR GO SOMEWHERE ELSE OR PROVIDE FOR OTHER NEEDS.
IT IS A DEEP QUESTION. BUT I THINK THE PACE OF THE DEVELOPMENT GOING ON IN HERE RIGHT NOW IS A GOOD PACE AND NOT AT THAT SORT OF RECKLESS GENTRIFICATION.
>> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, ORDINANCE 3.
>> Z62022, THIS IS THE APPLICATION OF THE CITY OF CLARKSVILLE, AGENT IS JOE PITTS, MAYOR, THIS IS .36 ACRES CURRENTLY ZONED R3 AS WELL, PROPOSING TO GO TO R6.
IT IS NOT AN EXTENSION OF R6 BUT IT IS IN THE AREA.
THE PROPERTY IS APPROXIMATELY 500 FEET SOUTH OF CROSSLAND AVENUE AND RICHARDSON STREET INTERSECTION.
COUNCIL WARD NO. 6. CURRENTLY A RESIDENTIAL HOME AND THE APPLICANT STATEMENT IS UPON APPROVAL OF THE PROPERTY WILL BE DONATED TO A COMMUNITY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATION TO PROVIDE AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR THE COMMUNITY.
THIS IS THE HOME IN QUESTION. ACROSS FROM CHA OFFICES ON RETCH ARICHARDSON STREET. PAGEANT LANE.
THERE'S THE CHA OFFICES ACROSS THE STREET.
THERE'S LOOKING FROM CROSSLAND AVENUE BACK UP TOWARD THE
[00:30:03]
PROPERTY. COMMENTS AND CONCERNS FROM OTHER DEPARTMENTS, SIDEWALKS WILL BE REQUIRED ON RICHARDSON STREET.WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE FURTHER COMMENTS DURING THE GRADING PERMANENT OR SITE REVIEW PHASE, FROM THE STREET DEPARTMENT. YOU WILL SEE THE COMMENT FROM THE SCHOOL SYSTEM REGARDING THE CAPACITY AT NORMAN SMITH, CLARKSVILLE HIGH SCHOOL. I WILL SAY THAT THESE SCHOOL ZONES HAVE NOT BEEN UPDATED. THEY JUST UPDATED THEIR SCHOOL MAP JUST A COUPLE DAYS AGO. WE WILL GET THAT UPDATED NEXT MONTH WITH THE NEW SCHOOL DISTRICT GOING FORWARD.
HISTORICAL ESTIMATES PUT THIS AT THREE LOTS.
STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. THE PROPOSED ZONING REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE ADOPTED LAND USE PLAN.
R6 SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT IS NOT OUT OF CHARACTER WITH THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT.
NO A ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUS WERE IDENTIFIED.
SIDEWALK WILL BE REQUIRED. PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDS
APPROVAL. >> COUNCILPERSON SMITH YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. >> WERE THERE ANY OPPOSITION IN
THE AREA. >> FOR THIS CASE, NO.
>> COUNCILPERSON MARQUIS. >> SINCE THIS IS GOING TO BE DONATED, I GUESS IS THERE A REASON THEY CAN'T DONATE IT UNDER THE CURRENT ZONING? OR ARE THEY PLANNING TO BUILD
SOMETHING ELSE ON IT? >> LET ME TAKE A STAB AT IT IF I COULD. THE OFFICE OF NEIGHBORHOOD AND COMMUNITY SERVICE HAS BEEN WORKING REALLY HARD TO DEVELOP PARTNERSHIPS WITH NONPROFIT HOUSING ORGANIZATIONS, WHICH ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN IN OUR COMMUNITY, HABITAT FOR HUMANITY IS WORKING HARD AND DOES A GREAT JOB.
OTHERS ARE KIND OF HIT AND MISS. WE HAVE AN EXCITING NEW PARTNERSHIP THAT HAS BEEN FORMED BETWEEN TWO CHURCHES IN THE COMMUNITY. FIRST PRESBYTERIAN, ONE OF THE OLDEST IN OUR COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS MOSAIC CHURCH, DYNAMIC CHURCH IN OUR COMMUNITY, HAVE FORMED A PARTNERSHIP AND NONPROFIT TO WHERE THEY WILL TAKE THIS PROPERTY ON AND PUT TWO TO THREE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES THAT WILL BE TRULY, TRULY AFFORDABLE HOUSING. IT WON'T BE IN NAME ONLY, PRICED IN THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING RANGE. WE ARE WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH THEM. IT IS AN EXCITING, ACTUALLY, GOOD START FOR THIS NEW PARTNERSHIP.
DOES THAT HELP ANSWER THE QUESTION?
>> YES, THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU.
ANY OTHER COMMENT OR QUESTION REGARDING ORDINANCE 89?
DID I GET CLOSE, MR. TYNDALL? >> YES.
>> ITEM 4, ORDINANCE 90. >> THIS IS PLANNING COMMISSION Z72022. THE APPLICATION OF HUNTER WINN AND KOLT MILAM. R1 REQUESTING TO GO TO R6.
MAPLEMERE DRIEF. THE APPLICANT STATEMENT IS TO BETTER UTILIZE THE BACK PORTION OF 199 MAPLEMERE DRIVE.
THE .11 ACRES, THE SMALLEST LOT YOU CAN GET OUT OF R6.
HERE'S THE VIEW ON WISDOM STRIEWGHTSTREET, LOOKING AT THEN THE PROPERTY. HERE IS THE BACKYARD OF THE PROPERTY. WOODEN FENCE WITH SOME DISREPAIR IN IT. LOOKING FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF WISDOM STREET AND THEN YOU GO OVER TO MAPLEMERE, AND THE HOUSE IS ON THE LEFT TOWARD THE CORNER OF THE PROPERTY THERE.
HERE'S THE HOUSE IN QUESTION AND YOU CAN KIND OF SEE A STRUCTURE BEHIND THAT CAR RIGHT THERE. THERE'S A STRUCTURE ON THE PROPERTY, THE APPLICANTS AT OUR HEARING INDICATED THEY WOULD REMOVE THAT AND BUILD A MORE SUBSTANTIAL LIVING UNIT OF SOME SORT BACK THERE AND INDICATE IT WOULD ACCESS WISDOM STREET WITH ITS OWN DRIVE. HISTORIC ESTIMATES PUT THIS AT ONE UNIT. STAFF RECOMMENDS DISAPPROVAL.
THE PROPOSED REQUEST IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE PLAN.
THE PROPOSED R6 SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT APPEARS TO BE OUT OF CHARACTER WITH THE MAPLEMERE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM.
NO ADD ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL IS WERE IDENTIFIED, SIDEWALKS WOULD BE REQUIRED. PLANNING COMMISSION ALSO
RECOMMENDS DISAPPROVAL. >> COUNCILCOUNCILPERSON SMITH YE
[00:35:04]
RECOGNIZED. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR.
THIS IS INTERESTING THAT YOU HAVE DISAPPROVAL IN THIS AREA RIGHT HERE. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO CERTAIN AREAS, KEEP SMILING, MR. TYNDALL, THANK YOU.
YOU PUSH THE ISSUE FOR R6 IN CERTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS.
AND WE KNOW THAT R6 HAS NO -- NOT PINT OF ORDER.
POINT OF ORDER, I'M SPEAKING ON WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
>> LET'S GET TO THE POINT. >> PLEASE LET ME FINISH.
>> OKAY. AND I HAVE THAT RIGHT.
BUT YOU PUSH FOR IT TO BE DISAPPROVAL HERE IN THIS AREA.
WHICH I HAVE GOT COMPLAINTS, THEY DON'T WANT IT IN THERE.
THAT'S GOOD. BUT THE POINT IS, STOP TRYING TO PUSH R6 IN THESE LOWER INCOME AREAS.
WHEN YOU KNOW IT IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE PROJECTS.
YOU KNOW IT HAS -- YOU CAN'T USE SWIMMING POOLS.
I AM TALKING ABOUT THE ZONE, R6. YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN'T HAVE NOTHING WITH R6. A SMALL HOUSES, LOOK LIKE LITTLE BARNS. SO BUT YOU DISAPPROVE IT IN THIS AREA, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
I WILL GET TO SOME OF THE MORE SPECIFICS THAT WEREN'T ON YOUR
SHEET THERE. >> IT AIN'T ON THE SHEET.
>> WE DON'T TYPICALLY USE THE WORD SPOT ZONING, I DIDN'T WANT TO PUT THAT ON YOUR SHEET THERE. HOWEVER, ONE OF THE TESTS I TYPICALLY USE FOR SPOT ZONING, IT IS AN OPPORTUNITY AFFORDED TO JUST ONE LOT IN THE ENTIRE AREA. THIS IS THE ONLY LOT ON MAPLEMERE THAT HAS FRONT TO TWO STREETS.
>> THIS THOSE LOTS, THIS IS THE ONLY ONE FRONTAGE ON TWO SPHREESTREETS, THE UNIT FOR ONE. BECAUSE NO OTHER HOUSE HAD THAT OPPORTUNITY ON MAPLEMERE STREET. NOT LIKE THEY HAVE A REAR LOT LINE ON ANOTHER STREET, IT WAS DONE FOR A SPECIFIC PURPOSE FOR A SPECIFIC PROPERTY WHICH IS ONE OF THE TWO TESTS FOR A SPOT ZONE. AND WE FELT THAT WAS INCONSISTENT WITH THE OTHER HOUSES ON MAPLEMERE.
NONE OF THEM WOULD BE AFFORDED THE SAME OPPORTUNITY TO USE THE REAR OF THEIR PROPERTY IN THE SAME MANOR.
>> ALL THIS R1, CONSISTENT. BUT THESE ARE R1 HERE.
THESE ARE R4. THIS IS MAPLEMERE.
SO WE SAYING IT IS TOO CLOSE TO SOMETHING IS THE REASON WE WANT TO NOT PUT THAT OVER THERE? WE SURE PUSH IT WHEN IT COMES T.
>> IT COULD BE CONSIDERED THAT, YES.
THANK YOU, MAYOR. >> COUNCILPERSON BUTLER.
THANK YOU, MAYOR. I KNOW WE JUST WENT OVER THIS.
IS R6 ONE OF THE ONES THAT YOU CAN JUST BUILD UP AS HIGH AS YOU WOULD WANT TO BUILD IF YOU WANTED TO BUILD IT?
>> 45 FEET. >> SO THEY CAN BUILD UP.
>> YOU CAN HAVE A THIRD STORY, YES.
>> THANK YOU. >> THANK, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS ORDINANCE? ALL RIGHT.
MR. TYNDALL. >> I BELIEVE THAT CONCLUDES OUR
REPORT TODAY. >> I THINK -- I'M SORRY, COUNCILPERSON STREETMAN, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
>> THANK YOU, MAYOR. MR. TYNDALL, ONE QUESTION.
I BELIEVE I ASKED THIS ONE DAY, BUT NOW THAT THEY ARE SAYING THEY WOULD CONNECT TO WISDOM. I WANT TO JUST VERIFY FOR MYSELF AS WELL AS THE COUNCIL IF THEY ARE CONNECTING TO WISDOM, THAT MEANS THE DRIVEWAY IS GOING TO BE GOING DIRECTLY INTO THE 90-DEGREE TURN THAT WE SAW ON THE PICTURE?
WISDOM STREET COMES DOWN, MAKES A 90-DEGREE TURN AND ANOTHER 90-DEGREE TURN. I BELIEVE IT MAY CHANGE NAMES THERE. THAT WOULD BE AT THAT BEND.
>> OKAY, THANK YOU. >> COUNCILPERSON SMITH, ANOTHER
QUESTION. >> AND THIS IS OVER THERE OFF OF POTUS BLUFF. MAPLEMERE, THAT'S OVER THERE.
GOOD AREA. I CALL THE RICH AREA, IS WHAT I CALL. BUT I'M GOING TO -- I'M GOING AGAINST THIS ANYWAY BECAUSE I HAVE A COMPLAINT FROM SOME OF MY CONSTITUENTS WHO DON'T WANT TO SEE THIS AND I WILL VOTE AGAINST IT TO SUPPORT THEM. I KNOW WE PUSH FOR CERTAIN THINGS IN CERTAIN AREAS, AND THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
IF ANYBODY STUDIED R6, YOU WILL KNOW, THAT'S THE WORST ZONE YOU CAN HAVE. WE DO NEED NEW ZONE.
WE DO NEED A NEW ZONE AND WE NEED TO STOP PUSHING STUFF IN CERTAIN AREAS WHERE THEY WANT TO JUST MAKE MONEY BECAUSE -- MONEY SOMETIMES BUY WHAT THEY WANT. MONEY CAN BUY WHAT IT WANTS.
LET ME SAY IT LIKE THAT. BUT SOME PEOPLE DISRESPECT OTHER
[00:40:04]
PEOPLE'S NEIGHBORHOODS BECAUSE THEY WANT TO DO WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. MY TWO CENTS.THANK YOU. >> OKAY, COUNCILPERSON MARQUIS,
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >> I WANTED TO CLARIFY WHAT A PREVIOUS SPEAKER WAS ASKING. ARE THEY TRYING TO CONNECT THE TWO STREETS ON THEIR HOME, THAT WAY THEY HAVE TWO ACCESSES?
>> THEY INTEND TO DIVIDE THIS PROPERTY OFF AND BUILD A SMALL HOUSE BEHIND THE EXISTING HOUSE. FRONTED ON THE OTHER STREET.
ANYONE ELSE? NOW BACK TO YOU, MR. CONTINUE T.
[2) CONSENT AGENDA]
>> THAT CONCLUDES OUR PROPERTY. >> CONSENT AGENDA, MA'AM CLERK.
GET WATER AND GET IT READY. >> OKAY, LET'S GO.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?

THESE ARE -- THIS IS THE $1.8 MILLION THEY RECEIVED AND IT WOULD BE USE IN ORDER TO -- SORRY, I'M SWITCHING BETWEEN EVERYTHING HERE.
IT WOULD BE USED FOR OUR -- FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO HELP PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY, AS FAR AS THEIR PROVIDE RENTAL ASSISTANCE, SECURITY DEPOSITS AND UTILITY DEPOSITS TO INCOME ELIGIBLE
HOUSEHOLDS. >> OKAY, THANK YOU, ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING RESOLUTION 44? COUNCILPERSON ALLEN, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
>> IS THAT GOING TO A PARTICULAR PROGRAM? IS IT BEING DIVIDED UP TO GO TO COMMUNITY PROGRAM? OR IS NEIGHBORHOOD AND FAMILY SERVICES GOING TO ADMINISTER IT
THEMSELVES? >> NO, THEY WILL NOT BE ADMINISTERING IT THEMSELVES. THEY WILL BE PARTNERING WITH A NONPROFIT FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO MANAGE IT.
WOULD YOU RATHER ME -- >> IF YOU LIKE, GO AHEAD.
>> THEY WILL BE PARTNERING WITH ONE OF OUR LOCAL NONPROFIT
AGENCIES. >> WHICH ONE IS THAT?
>> WITH UNITED WAY. >> OKAY, THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU. GOOD SPEECH, MR. NEWBURG.
ANYTHING ELSE, CHAIRPERSON STREETMAN?
>> NO, SIR. >> WE ARE NOW READY FOR PARKS
AND RECREATION. >> SORRY, I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION. YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
>> WE MART PARTNERED WITH UNITEY THE LAST TIME, AND WE WERE TOLD -- ONE OF THE STIPULATIONS TO PARTNER WITH UNITED WAY FOR THE CARES ACT MONEY, THAT WENT TO UNITED WAY, EVERY DENIAL THEY DID, WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GET INFORMATION ABOUT IT AND WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY OF THAT AND I KNOW THERE'S BEEN DENIALS, SO WHY WOULD WE CONTINUE A PARTNERSHIP WHEN WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE INFORMATION WE REQUESTED?
>> MR. NEWBURN. >> ONCE BEFORE WHERE I SIT DOWN
[00:50:04]
AND YOU BRENG ME BACK UP AGAIN. >> SORRY.
>> YOU ARE ON. >> WE DO RECEIVE WEEKLY REPORTS FROM THE UNITED WAY REPORTS TO PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN REJECTED.
THEY ARE AVAILABLE AT ANY POINT IN TIME.
THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN SERVED, ACTUALLY WAS HIGHER THAN PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN REJECTED.
AND THAT WAS ACTUALLY A REQUEST THAT YOU MADE.
I'M GLAD THAT WE HAVE IMPLEMENTED THAT AND HAVE THAT INFORMATION. WE ARE VERY, VERY PLEASED WITH THE SERVICES THE UNITED WAY OFFERS.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO PARTNERING WITH THEM ON THIS NEW VENTURE.
>> COULD YOU SEND ME THOSE, PLEASE, THE DENIALS?
COUNCILPERSON BUTLER. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR.
NOW WE JUST TALKED ABOUT THIS, THAT I AM SAD I AM NOT ON YOUR BOARD SO I CAN'T ASK THESE QUESTIONS THERE.
ARE THOSE THREE THINGS, RENTAL ASSISTANT, UTILITIES, DEPOSITS, IS THAT WHERE THE MONEY IS GOING TO GO?
>> MAYOR, IF I CAN LITTLE EXPLANATION.
THIS PROGRAM IS ACTUALLY A NEW CONCEPT FOR CLARKSVILLE.
THE TITLE IS CALLED TENANT BASED RENTAL ASSISTANCE.
IT OPERATES MUCH THE SAME WAY AS THE HOUSING VOICE VOUCHER OR SECTION 8 PROGRAM DOES INSOFAR AS ELIGIBLE TENANTS PAY 30% OF THEIR GROSS MONTHLY INCOME IN HOUSING.
THE REST, THE 7 0B 70% WOULD BEA SUBSIDY.
WE ARE GOING TO USE THE FUNDS FOR THIS TYPE OF PROGRAM.
FOCUS PRIMARILY ON PERSONS WHO ARE HOMELESS OR AT RISK OF HOMELESS. PERSONS WHO ARE VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE WILL ALSO BE A PRIMARY FOCUS.
WE ARE ESTIMATING ABOUT 35 TO 40 FAMILIES WILL BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROGRAM AND IN THE PROGRAM, THEY WILL RECEIVE RENTAL ASSISTANCE FORETWO YEARS.
COUNCILPERSON ALLEN. >> TO GO A LITTLE BIT DEETER DEEPER.IS ANY OF THIS MONEY BEID FOR ADMINISTRATIVE FEES OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, FOR THE AGENCY?
>> SO THE AGENCY WILL BE ABLE TO USE UP TO 15% OF THE GRANTED FUNDS FOR ADMINISTRATION. AND THAT IS SIMILAR TO THE SAME FORMULA WE USE ALSO THAT'S PROVIDED BY VIRTUE OF RECEIPT OF
THE FUNDS. >> SO 15% OF $1,000,882, 125.
WHEN IT COULD BE GOING TO FAMILIES?
>> A CASE COULD BE MADE FOR THAT.
BUT THERE HAS TO BE ADMINISTRATIVE MONEY TO RUN THE PROGRAMS TO HAVE THE STAFF PRESENT.
15%, IT IS A GOVERNMENT MANDATE OR REQUIREMENT.
CERTAINLY I THINK IS REASONABLE. ALTHOUGH MOST AGENCIES WOULD ARGUE THAT THAT'S INSUFFICIENT FOR THE AM OF OPERATING CAPITAL THEY HAVE TO DO. SO IN MOST CASES ORGANIZATIONS ARE HAVING TO SUPPLEMENT FROM OUTSIDE SOURCES ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS TO PAY STAFF SALARIES, BENEFITS, THOSE TYPE OF THINGS.
BUT ON THE SURFACE, I DON'T THINK THAT IS UNREASONABLE AT
ALL AND -- >> YOU SAID THAT IS A FEDERAL
>> CAN YOU SEND THAT INFORMATION TO ME, WHERE I WOULD FIND THAT INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE A MANDATE THAT WE HAVE TO DO 15%?
>> YES, SO UNDER THE HOME PROGRAM RULES, BASICALLY WITH ALL OF OUR FEDERAL PROGRAMS, CBDG, HOME, HOME ARP.
WITH CBDG IT IS 20%. HOME ENTITLEMENT IS 10%, HOME
ARP IS 15%. >> I JUST WANT IT IN WRITING.
>> COUNCILPERSON MARQUIS, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
>> THANK YOU, MAYOR. I JUST WANTED TO ASK THAT THIS INFORMATION THAT IS GOING TO BE DISACCEDISSEMINATED TO MY COLLE,
WILL BE SENT TO ALL OF US. >> CERTAINLY.
>> IF YOU GET IT TO THE CLERK, IT WILL BE DISSEMINATED.
>> COUNCILPERSON BUTLER. >> I'M BAD AT MATH, 1,882,125.
IF YOU DO THE MATH, IT IS $16,000.
>>$16,000. >> COUNCILPERSON REDD.
>> DO YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BE USED FROM NONGOVERNMENTAL CONTRIBUTIONS, IS TYPICALLY THAT THEY USE?
>> IF YOU WERE A PRIVATE LANDLORD OR --
>> THEIR OPERATING COST? >> USUALLY 15 TO 18 PERCENT IS A
PRETTY STANDARD MARGIN. >> OKAY.
[00:55:02]
>> COUNCILPERSON REYNOLDS, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
>> I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW, DID WE, AS A -- DID YOUR ORGANIZATION TAKE 15% AND NOW THIS ORGANIZATION IS TAKING 15%,
OR IS THIS THE FIRST 15%? >> WE WILL TAKE 15%.
THE ORGANIZATION THAT WE HOPE TO WORK WITH, THE UNITED WAY, WILL
BE ALLOWED ALSO TO TAKE 15%. >> SO TOTAL OF 30% OFF THE TOP.
>> RIGHT. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR
MR. NEWBURN, THANK YOU, SIR . >> YOU ARE NOT GOING TO ASK ME
AGAIN, ARE YOU? >> CHAIRPERSON STREETMAN, ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE COMMITTEE.
>> NO, SIR, THAT'S ALL. >> WE ARE NOW READY FOR PARKS AND RECREATION COMMITTEE CHAIRPERSON HOLLEMAN.
>> I WILL HAVE A FULL REPORT FOR PARKS AND RECREATION AND PUBLIC
SAFETY NEXT WEEK. >> THAT COVERS BOTH.
TRANSPORTATION STREETS AND GARAGE COMMITTEE, CHAIRPERSON
SMITH, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR.
I WILL HAVE A FULL REPORT ON MARCH 3RD, THURSDAY, THANK YOU.
[9) NEW BUSINESS]
>> WE ARE NOW READY FOR NEW BUSINESS.
WE ARE LOOKING AT ORDINANCE 81-2021-22, FIRST READING, AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 5 OF THE OFFICIAL CITY CODE TO DELETE SUB-PARAGRAPHS (F) AND (J) UNDER SECTION 5-311.
COUNCILPERSON BUTLER IS RECOGNIZED.
>> THANK YOU, MAYOR. SO I REALLY WISH WE WOULD HAVE HAD IT ON ONE OF OUR SPECIALS, BECAUSE IT IS THE OHM THING THAG THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT. AFTER THE LAST MONTH OR SO, I HAVE BEEN TALKING TO LEGAL AND I HAVE SPOKEN TO ZONING AND BUI --BUILDING AND CODES. EVENTUALLY REMOVING THESE TWO PORTIONS FROM THE SHORT-TERM RENTALS ORDINANCE -- I SHOULD HAVE WROTE SOMETHING UP, GUYS, BEAR WITH ME.
BECAUSE THE TWO POINTS ARE ALREADY COVERED IN OTHER LAWS AND CODES, IT IS REALLY KIND OF A MOOT POINT.
SO IT IS MY INTENTION TO ASK YA'LL TO LET THIS FAIL FOR LACK OF SECOND. I WOULD REMOVE IT SOME OTHER WAY IF NEED BE. BUT, YOU KNOW, THAT'S THE BEST, FASTEST, EASIEST WAY FOR US TO DISPOSE OF SOMETHING THAT THE COUNCIL MEMBER HAS, FOR LACK OF BETTER TERMINOLOGY, CHANGED
THEIR MIND ABOUT. >> IF YOU WILL REMIND US WHEN WE
>> THANK YOU. >> ALL RIGHT, WE ARE NOW READY FOR ITEMS 2, 3, AND 4 REALLY GO TOGETHER.
IF YOU PLAY GOLF, YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE TERM MULLIGAN, THIS IS A DO-OVER ON WHAT WE HAD ADOPTED ON RESOLUTION 46, 47, 48. THERE WAS AN ERROR.
MR. BAKER, COME UP AND LEAD US THROUGH THE COMPLEXITIES OF THE FINANCE WORLD FROM A LEGAL STANDPOINT.
>> SO IT IS FAIRLY SIMPLE. WHAT HAPPENED WAS, YOU PREVIOUSLY APPROVED RESOLUTION 42, AND YOU WILL SEE IN RESOLUTION 46, LOOK AT IT WITH ME, 46 IS A RESOLUTION TO REPEAL RESOLUTION 42 WHICH YOU PREVIOUSLY APPROVED WHICH IS CALLED OR KNOWN IN THE BUSINESS AS THE DETAILED RESOLUTION REGARDING THE ISSUANCE OF THE DEBT THERE.
BUT BEFORE YOU PASS A DETAILED RESOLUTION, YOU HAVE TO PASS, BY LAW, AN INITIAL RESOLUTION. AND DUE TO SOME ERRORS, JUST OVERSIGHT, FRANKLY, THAT WAS NOT PRESENTED TO THE COUNCIL.
IT IS JUST KIND OF A MIXUP WITH OUR BOND COUNSEL AND THE CITY CLERK. WE WILL FIX IT.
AND SO THE WHAT WE HAVE TO DO IS REPEAL 42, AND THEN WE NEED TO PASS RESOLUTION 47 WHICH IS WHT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PASSED FIRST, AND THETS CALLED THE INITIAL RESOLUTION.
AND THE NUMBERS IS 52 MILLION, THAT'S BECAUSE THAT IS FOR ALREADY EXISTING PROJECTS -- REFUNDING.
THAT'S THE REFUNDING AMOUNT. >> [INAUDIBLE].
>> THAT'S NOT THE 5 DID, THAT'S? >> LET'S GET THIS CLEAR.
>> AND THEN THE 48 RESOLUTION 48, THAT IS THE DETAILED
[01:00:06]
RESOLUTION THAT IS EXACT REPEAT OF THE OLD DETAILED RESOLUTION 42 THAT YOU ARE GOING TO BE REPEALING EXCEPT WE ARE UPDATING THE DATES. AGAIN, WHY THIS IS ALL REQUIRED NOW IS BECAUSE THE INITIAL RESOLUTION, WHICH IS RESOLUTION 47, YOU NEVER ACTUALLY VOTED ON IT SEPARATELY.>> SO WE PASSED ONE, SHOULD HAVE PASSED TWO.
ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT RESOLUTION 46, WHICH IS THE REPEALING RESOLUTION AND THEN 47, 48? SEEING NONE.
WE ARE NOW READY FOR ITEM 5. 5. ORDINANCE 91-2021-22, FIRST READING, AN ORDINANCE ACCEPTING THE DONATION OF CERTAIN REAL PROPERTY FROM HAZELWOOD DEVELOPMENT, A TENNESSEE GENERAL PARTNERSHIP, TO THE CITY OF CLARKSVILLE FOR THE PURPOSE OF A SEWER PUMP STATION.
ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS ORDINANCE? WE HAVE THE SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT IN THE AUDIENCE, MR. RIGINS, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
SEEING NONE. I'M SORRY, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED
COUNCILPERSON SMITH. >> CAN HE EXPLAIN IT TO ME A
LITTLE BIT. >> MR. RIGINS, COME ON UP.
>> AS YOU HAVE SEEN BEFORE, THIS IS ONE AKIN TO SOME WE HAVE DONE IN THE PAST. THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT THAT WAS, YOU CAN SEE FROM THE FINAL PLAT IN YOUR PACKET, WAS ABOUT 2008.
AT SOME POINT AFTER THAT, THAT WAS ONCE THE UTILITIES IN PLACE, PUMP STATION WAS IN PLACE AND THEY WERE FINAL PLATTED, EVERYTHING WAS ACCEPTED BY THE CITY, AND THEN THEY WERE ABLE TO BUILD HOMES. SO THE THOUGHT WAS BACK SOME YEARS AGO, ONCE THE PLAT WAS FINALIZED, JUST THE FACT THAT IT SAYS CITY OF CLARKSVILLE PROPERTY ON THAT PLAT, THAT THAT AUTOMATICALLY DONATED THAT TO THE CITY AND WE FOUND THAT THAT IS NOT THE CASE. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED UP WITH, IN '08, THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS BEEN PAYING TAXES.
HE IS DONATING THAT PROPERTY TO US.
WE ARE STRAIGHTENING IT OUT. WE ARE THE ONLY THING ON THAT PROPERTY. 3,000 SQUARE FEET, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IT IS JUST ENOUGH ROOM FOR A DRIVEWAY AND A PUMP STATION FOR SEWER.
>> COUNCILPERSON SMITH? >> OKAY.
I WILL LEAVE IT ALONE. THANK YOU.
>> ALL RIGHT. NOT GOING TO BUILD AN APARTMENT BUILDING ON IT. ALL RIGHT.
>> [INAUDIBLE]. >> OKAY, ANY OTHERS QUESTIONS
[10) MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBER COMMENTS]
REGARDING ORDINANCE 91? NOW READY FOR COUNCILPERSON COMMENTS. ANY COMMENTS FROM THE COUNCIL? YOU ARE RECOGNIZED COUNCILPERSON SMITH.>> WELL, I KNOW THAT -- IS MR. SHEPHERD IN HERE?
>> NO, HE IS NOT. >> IS ANYBODY REPRESENTING THE
STREET DEPARTMENT HERE? >> HE IS HERE, MR. CO COWAN IS
HERE. >> CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THE CLEANUP, THE SPRING CLEANUP THAT YOU MENTIONED AND ALSO WHAT ELSE
WAS GOING ON. >> MR. CO CO COWAN.
>> SO THE CITIZENS WOULD KNOW. >> WE HAVE OUR SPRING CLEANUP --
TALK IN THE MIC. >> IS GOING TO BE --
>> IF YOU MR., MR. COWAN TALK INTO THE MIC.
>> THERE WE GO. WE ARE GOING TO BE STARTING OUR SPRING CLEANUP, I BELIEVE, IT IS MARCH --
>> THE 5TH? >> I BELIEVE THAT'S RIGHT.
>> PASS THAT TO HIM, PLEASE. >> SO BEGINNING ON MARCH 14TH.
AND WE WILL BE PICKING UP ANY DEBRIS OR LIMBS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, YARD WASTE THAT PEOPLE HAVE.
THEY CAN CUT IT INTO THE CORRECT SIZES, I BELIEVE THEY CAN PUT IT OUT. THEY CAN CALL OUR DEPARTMENT AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR US TO PICK THAT MATERIAL UP.
WE WILL COME AND GET IT. AND DISPOSE OF IT PROPERLY.
>> SO HOW LONG WILL THIS LAST? MR. COWAN?
>> I BELIEVE THIS IS LASTING, BEGINNING DATE.
>> MARCH 14TH, I BELIEVE IT CARRIES THROUGH, I BELIEVE IT WAS GOING TO BE THROUGH MAY 2ND. IT IS A GOOD LE LENGTH OF TIME.
>> THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, MR. CO MR. COWAN.
[01:05:07]
>> [INAUDIBLE]. >> HE SAID FOUR FEET.
>> I BELIEVE THAT IS CORRECT. NO LIMBS LONGER THAN EIGHT FEET.
>> EVEN BETTER. >> EVEN BETTER, YEAH.
>> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR MR. COWAN?
MR. BAKER? >> SO I JUST WANTED TO CALL THE COUNCIL ATTENTION TO THE CONSENT AGENDA ITEM NO. 9, ORDINANCE 79.
ITEM NOT 9 ON CONSENT AGENDA, AMENDING THE OFFICIAL CODE ADOPTING INTERNATIONAL FIRE CODE.
PART OF WHAT THAT INTERNATIONAL FIRE CODE PROVIDES FOR IS AN APPEALS BOARD WHEN PEOPLE ARE AAGRIEVED BY THE DECISION OF THE FIRE CHIEF. THESE FIVE MEMBERS WILL BE APPOINTED BY THE MAYOR, YOU WILL HAVE TO APPROVE THEM.
THEY ARE SUBJECT TO YOUR APPROVAL, AND THEY WILL HAVE TO HAVE SOME KIND OF EXPERTISE IN -- THEY CAN BE INSURANCE RISK MANAGERS, FIRE INVESTIGATORS, RETIRED FIREFIGHTERS, THAT SORT OF THING. AND SO YOU WILL HAVE, ON NEXT WEEK'S AGENDA, A SEPARATE RESOLUTION TO APPOINT THOSE MEMBERS. YOU MIGHT SAY, WHY DON'T WE ADD IT TO RESOLUTION 51. THAT'S BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO ACTUALLY APPROVE ORDINANCE 79.
AND YOU CAN'T ESTABLISH A BOARD THAT'S CALLED FOR BY AN ORDINANCE UNTIL THAT ORDINANCE IS APPROVED.
SO ONCE YOU HAVE VOTE ON THE CONSENT AGENDA, ORDINANCE 79, THAT ORDINANCE WILL BE EFFECTIVE UPON ADOPTION AND THEN UNDER NEW BUSINESS, THERE WILL BE A SEPARATE RESOLUTION TO APPROVE THE APPOINTMENTS OF FIVE MEMBERS FOR THIS APPEAL BOARD.
>> THANK YOU, MR. BAKER. COUNCILPERSON REYNOLDS,
RECOGNIZED FOR COMMENT. >> YES, MAYOR.
NEXT WEEK WE ARE SUPPOSED TO SELECT A PERSON TO FILL COUNCILPERSON ASHLEE EVANS SEAT. I WAS GOING TO ASK, IF WE CAN GET AS MANY OF THE RESUMES AHEAD OF TIME.
LAST TIME WE GOT SOME THE DAY OFF.
IF YOU HAVEN'T -- IF YOU RECEIVE THEM THIS WEEK, THEN I WOULD APPRECIATE BEING ABLE TO SEE THEM AHEAD OF TIME AND DO SOME RESEARCH OR MAYBE SPEAK TO THE CANDIDATES AHEAD OF TIME.
>> WE WILL BE GLAD TO DISTRIBUTE WHATEVER MATERIALS CONFLICTS APS SUBMIT TO US. THEY ARE ONLY REQUIRED TO PRESENT THEMSELVES AND BE READY. WE WON'T VOTE NEXT WEEK.
THEY WILL PRESENT AND THEN WE WILL HAVE A SPECIAL SESSION TO
VOTE. >> JUST TO MAKE SURE WE ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT, WHATEVER WE DO GET, ESPECIALLY ANYTHING THAT IS FORWARDED TO YA'LL, WILL HAVE TO BE SURE THAT THE CITY CLERK SENDS IT OUT WITH PUBLIC NOTICE
AND AGENDA OF THE MEETING. >> COUNCILPERSON ALLEN, YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED. >> I WOULD JUST LIKE TO TAKE A MOMENT TO TELL EVERYBODY HERE IN THE CITY THAT HAS REACHED OUT TO THE ME IN THE PASSING OF MY GRANDMOTHER, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I DEFINITELY FELT LIKE -- I FEEL THE LOVE FROM THE MAYOR, THROUGHOUT THE CITY COUNCIL.
SO -- AND PEOPLE IN THE CITY, SO I WOULD LIKE TO SAY, AGENCIES IN THE CITY REACHED OUT TO ME. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THANK YOU. I'M VERY APPRECIATIVE.
MY FAMILY WAS APPRECIATIVE TO EVERYTHING THAT ANYONE SENT.
LET'S REMEMBER OUR TROOPS WHO ARE GATHERING AS WE KNOW THAT THE GLOBAL SITUATION WE ARE IN IS CERTAINLY ON SHAKY GROUND RIGHT NOW. LET'S REMEMBER OUR TROOPS AND THEIR FAMILIES A IN OUR PRAYER EVERY SINGLE DAY.
OKAY. WE ARE NOW READY FOR PUBLIC COMMENT. ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS COUNCIL? SEEING NONE, WE ARE ADJOURNED.
