          [00:05:03]
THE SITE PHOTO ON DUVAL LOOKING WEST. THE TALL CITY TOMORROW. LAND USE DESIGNATION IS URBAN RESIDENTIAL LOW, WHICH SUPPORTS RESTRICTIVE LAND USE, EMPHASIZING SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED DEVELOPMENT. NO OBJECTIONS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED, AND SHOULD THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION APPROVE THIS REQUEST, STAFF RECOMMENDS THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS. THANK YOU, AND I'M OPEN TO ANY QUESTIONS. ANYTHING FOR MADAM? NO. OKAY. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE YOU. ALL RIGHT. AT THIS TIME, I WILL OPEN UP THE PUBLIC HEARING. IS THE APPLICANT PRESENT? WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME SPEAK ON THE MATTER? NAME AND ADDRESS FOR US, PLEASE. GRIFFIN PERROTTI 6411 BOBOLINK, DALLAS, TEXAS. THANK YOU. I BELIEVE I SENT IN A SLIDE DECK. I DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE ABLE TO PULL THAT UP, I APOLOGIZE. I YES, SIR, I APPRECIATE IT. I CAN START OUT WITH JUST AN INTRODUCTION. WHILE WE'RE GETTING THAT PULLED UP. MY NAME IS GRIFFIN PERROTTI. 
          I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF STONE HUNT CAPITAL PARTNERS AS THE DEVELOPER OF THE PROJECT. WE'VE BEEN AROUND AS A COMPANY FOR 13 YEARS AND DONE 25 PROJECTS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. WE DO ALL GROUND UP CLASS A APARTMENTS. WE INITIALLY GOT OUR START IN MIDLAND, WITH US OPERATING IN ZONING SINCE THE INCEPTION OF OUR COMPANY. SO FIRST PROJECT HERE WAS THE OASIS. WE COMPLETED THAT IN 2015. AND IF YOU GO ON TO THIS NEXT SLIDE, THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE. WE'RE CALLING IT THE HIGHWAY 191 DEVELOPMENT. AS STATED PREVIOUSLY, THIS IS ZONED FOR MF 16 WHICH ALLOWS APPROXIMATELY 300 UNITS TODAY. LIKE I SAID, WE'VE OWNED THIS FOR EIGHT YEARS. WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A WAY TO MAKE THIS FINANCIALLY VIABLE, BOTH AS A DEVELOPER AND TO THE BROADER CAPITAL MARKETS. AND WE ARE PROPOSING A REZONE INTO A PD OF 24.6 UNITS AN ACRE. THIS IS THE SITE UNDER ITS CURRENT ZONING TODAY THAT 300 UNITS, WE WOULD NOT BE REQUIRED, NOR COULD WE MAKE FINANCIAL SENSE OUT OF BUILDING OUT A FUTURE DEAUVILLE THAT YOU CAN SEE THERE. WE WOULD ALSO ONLY BE UTILIZING APPROXIMATELY TWO THIRDS OF THAT SITE. THE REST OF IT WOULD BE LEFT FOR OPEN GREEN SPACE AT THE PLAN THAT WE ARE PUTTING FORWARD ON THIS NEXT SLIDE HERE, I APOLOGIZE. IT IS ONE MORE AFTER THAT. THIS IS A TWO PHASE PROJECT WITH THE NORTHERN PHASE CONSISTING OF 240 UNITS. THE SOUTHERN PHASE OF THE PROJECT IS 228 UNITS. AND WITH THIS PROJECT AND UNDER A PD APPROACH, WE TOOK A MORE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THAT AFTER DISCUSSING WITH THE CITY AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THE MAIN CONCERN WAS TRAFFIC. 
          AND SO WHILE WE ARE, YOU KNOW, WANTING TO BRING IN EXTRA DENSITY, WE WANT TO DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO HELP SOLVE THE TRAFFIC ISSUE WITHIN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND WITH THIS AREA. 
          SO WITH THIS SITE PLAN, WE WOULD BE COMMITTED TO BUILDING OUT AND PAYING FOR, OUR PORTION OF DEAUVILLE THAT YOU CAN SEE ON SITE PLAN NORTH ALONG WITH A TRAFFIC CIRCLE. WE ARE PROPOSING THAT WE PAY FOR THE TRAFFIC CIRCLE IN ITS ENTIRETY. WE ARE GOING TO DONATE A PORTION OF THE RIGHT OF WAY ASSOCIATED WITH THAT. AND THERE'S THREE OTHER ADJACENT LANDOWNERS THAT WE'RE PROPOSING THE CITY WORKS WITH TO OBTAIN THAT, RIGHT OF WAY AND ENTITLEMENTS NEEDED FOR US TO DO THE CONSTRUCTION ON THIS PROJECT. THAT IS A HIGH LEVEL RENDERING THAT YOU CAN SEE THE TRAFFIC CIRCLE AT DUVAL AND ARLINGTON. THIS IS THE TRAFFIC STUDY THAT WE HAD DONE. IT WAS COMPLETED TWO WEEKS AGO, SO IT WAS OUT OF SUMMER. WHAT OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER DID WAS HE GREW THE TRAFFIC COUNTS THAT HE TOOK BY 15%. AND THEN HE GREW THAT 15% BY AN ADDITIONAL 10% YEAR OVER YEAR COMPOUNDING UNTIL YOU GET TO 2029. AND SO WE CAN SEE THE BASE CASE TODAY, WITH NO ADDITIONAL UNITS, YOU'RE AT ABOUT A NINE TO A TEN SECOND INTERSECTION DELAY. WHEN YOU LOOK AT SCENARIO TWO, WHICH IS INCLUSIVE OF THE 468 UNITS WE ARE BRINGING, WE ARE ACTUALLY TAKING THAT DOWN TO A 6.1. SO THAT'S INCLUSIVE OF ALL THE ADDITIONAL UNITS. WITH THAT TRAFFIC CIRCLE EVEN GROWN AT THAT TEN AND 15%, WE ARE STILL 
          [00:10:06]
SIGNIFICANTLY, REDUCING THAT, THAT INTERSECTION DELAY, AS WELL AS KEEPING THAT DELAY AT A GRADING OF AN A. THESE ARE JUST SOME HIGH LEVEL RENDERINGS AND PREVIOUS PROJECTS OF WHAT STONE HAS DONE AS A COMPANY THAT WE WANTED TO INCLUDE TO SHOW YOU GUYS. BUT THAT IS ALL I'VE GOT TODAY. I APPRECIATE YOU ALL HAVING ME OUT. I'VE ALSO GOT ANDREW MELLON HERE WITH ME, TO SPEAK IN MORE DETAIL ON ANY OF THE ENGINEERING TECHNICAL QUESTIONS. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. 
          ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT RIGHT NOW. ALL RIGHT. APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. MR. MELLON, DO YOU WANT TO COME SPEAK AND ADD TO THAT A LITTLE BIT, IF YOU DON'T MIND. I'D JUST LIKE TO REITERATE, REITERATE AND REMIND EVERYBODY WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT REQUIRED. SO AS FAR AS THIS PARTICULAR PLAT THAT'S GOING THROUGH AND ZONING, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE KIND OF UP FOR THEIR HALF OF THE ROAD, THE NORTH HALF, IT WAS REALLY SUPPOSED TO BE UNDER CAVINDER, BUT THEY DONATED THEIR RIGHT OF WAY TO THE CITY. SO THE CITY MADE A DEAL. HEY, WE DON'T NEED TO HAVE THAT ROADWAY BUILT AT THAT TIME BECAUSE THE FULL RIGHT OF WAY WASN'T GIVEN. WELL, NOW THE FULL RIGHT OF WAY IS THERE BECAUSE TONY HAWK'S COMING IN AND THEY'RE WILLING TO BUILD OUT ALL OF IT ALONG WITH THE WATER AND SEWER. THAT WAS NOT DONE EITHER. ALONG WITH THAT, REMIND YOU THAT THEY'RE ALSO SOLVING A TRAFFIC ISSUE THAT'S NOT REALLY THEIRS, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE SOMETHING IN THE FUTURE THAT COULD HAPPEN. SO THEY'RE ALSO TAKEN CARE OF THAT. I JUST WANTED TO PUT THAT OUT THERE MORE BLUNTLY. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. AT THIS TIME, I HAVE A DWAYNE FRITTS. WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME SPEAK AT THIS TIME? NAME AND ADDRESS FOR US, PLEASE? DWAYNE FRANZ 6707, JAMESTOWN. I'M JUST SOUTH OF WHERE THIS NEW LOCATION IS GOING TO BE. I'M NOT SURE IF I CHECKED THE RIGHT ONE. I AM, I'M IN AGREEMENT WITH IT. I REALLY HOPE IT HAPPENS. BUT I ALSO HAVE A COUPLE EXTRA QUESTIONS THAT WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT AS A NEIGHBORHOOD. WHEN WE MET WITH, GRIFFIN AND A FEW OF THEM THE OTHER DAY, THEY'RE REAL NICE. BROUGHT EVERYTHING TO THE TABLE. LET US KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON, WHICH IS THE FIRST THAT WE'VE GOTTEN FROM ANYBODY OUT THERE. WE DO APPRECIATE THE TRAFFIC CIRCLE. I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE A GREAT IDEA RATHER THAN STOPLIGHTS AND FOUR WAY STOPS. BECAUSE WE HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM GETTING OUT OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD RIGHT NOW. AND WITH THE ADDITION OF LEHIGH COMING IN AND WITH THE ADDITION OF THE NEW, WHATEVER'S GOING TO GO DOWN HERE, THE KEY AND ALL THAT, THAT GOING TO BUILD ACROSS FROM KAVANAUGH, WE'RE GETTING A LOT MORE A LOT MORE TRAFFIC. THE TRAFFIC RIGHT NOW WITH THE PEOPLE JUST GOING DOWN THERE TO WORK AT LEE ON OFF OF, AVALON. WE'RE STILL HAVING PROBLEMS GETTING OUT OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WE CANNOT GET OUT OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE MORNING AND DON'T GET IN THEIR WAY WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO GET BACK INTO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AT NIGHT. SO WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IS, ONE, HOW ARE WE GOING TO ALLEVIATE? THEY'RE DOING US SOME HELP, BUT HOW ARE WE GOING TO ALLEVIATE MORE TRAFFIC? AND WITH AVALON GOING ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THOMAS AND CUTTING ACROSS, IT'S ALSO GOING TO BRING IN A TON OF TRUCK TRAFFIC, WHICH WILL AFFECT THEM ALSO. AND IT'S GOING TO BACK UP TIMES. BUT WE'RE ALSO WE'VE GOT A HUGE CONCERN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF WATER. WHEN LEE WAS BEING PROPOSED, IT WAS TOLD TO US BACK THEN, Y'ALL ARE GOING TO GET A WATER TOWER TO TAKE CARE OF IT. I HAVEN'T SEEN IT. I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING. ALL WE'RE SEEING NOW IS THAT THEY'RE GOING TO LOOP IN ANOTHER PIPE TO TRY AND BRING MORE WATER IN. WELL, THAT DOESN'T HELP. NOW, WHEN YOU GOT ANOTHER WHAT, 800 AND SOMETHING PEOPLE THAT'S GOING TO BE LIVING HERE, I WANT THEM THERE. 
          TRUST ME FOR MY NEIGHBORHOOD. I WANT THEM THERE JUST BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT ELSE COULD GO IN THERE. CLASS A WOULD BE GREAT TO BE THERE. WE DON'T NEED OTHER THINGS THAT'S GOING TO TAKE OUR PROPERTY VALUE DOWN. OUR BIGGEST CONCERNS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS HOW DO WE GET OUT OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD? HOW DO WE GET INTO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WITH EVERYTHING THAT'S GROWING AROUND US? THIS IS ONE STEP I'M THEY DON'T HAVE TO DO WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO. IT HELPS US WHEN WE DO APPRECIATE IT. BUT OUR NEXT BIGGEST THING IS WATER. AND GRANTED, IT'S GOING TO BE A TWO PHASE PROJECT. WE'RE LOOKING ANOTHER FIVE YEARS, BUT SINCE I'VE BEEN OUT THERE FOR SEVEN YEARS, OUR WATER PRESSURE HAS DONE NOTHING BUT GO DOWN AND DOWN AND DOWN AND DOWN. WATER VOLUME IS GOING DOWN AND WE'RE NOT SEEING ANY RELIEF. IT'S NOT AGAINST THEM. 
          [00:15:04]
IT'S JUST MORE QUESTIONS THAT WE HAVE BECAUSE THERE'S MORE DEVELOPMENT GOING AROUND US, ESPECIALLY WITH LEE OPENING UP TO THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THIS REQUEST? ANYONE ELSE? ALL RIGHT. SEEING NO ONE ELSE, IS THERE ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK AGAINST THIS OR HAVE MORE, LIKE, MORE INFORMATION? ALL RIGHT. AT THIS TIME, IF, THE APPLICANT WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS ANYTHING OR ADD ANYTHING TO WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY SAID. I DON'T HAVE MUCH TO ADD. I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT. YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO KEEP HAVING CONVERSATION WITH, WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND SEE HOW WE CAN IMPROVE UPON THE CURRENT PROJECT IF WE CAN IN ANY WAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 
          ALL RIGHT. THEN AT THIS TIME, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND WE WILL GO TO THE COMMISSION. I THINK, WE DON'T WANT TO IGNORE THE CONCERNS THAT THE GENTLEMAN HAS, BUT I THINK THAT'S THOSE ARE MORE QUESTIONS DIRECTLY TO THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE MAYOR, BECAUSE AS YOU SAID, THOSE ISSUES HAVE BEEN THERE FOR ABOUT SEVEN YEARS. SO I THINK THAT WOULD BE GOOD TO ADDRESS THAT. I'M PRETTY SURE THE CITY HAS A PLAN OF WORKING ON SOMETHING BECAUSE I KNOW WE CANNOT, WE CANNOT ASK A DEVELOPER TO FIX THE PREVIOUS SITUATION THAT HAPPENED THERE. 
          AS YOU SAY, THEY'RE TRYING TO WORK ON THIS DEVELOPMENT AND PROVIDE WHAT IS NEEDED FOR THE TRAFFIC THAT THEY'RE GOING TO COST, BUT ASKING THEM TO FIX THE SITUATION WE GOT BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN THERE, WE'RE JUST WANTING TO BRING IT TO Y'ALL THAT ARE APPROVING EVERYTHING RIGHT OUT THERE. AND, AND WE, WE UNDERSTAND THAT I THINK FROM THE COMMISSION SIDE OF THINGS. 
          AND, THE QUESTION THAT AS I THINK YOU WERE ALLUDING TO HERE IS, YOU KNOW, THE, THE CITY, I THINK HAS SOME THINGS THAT MAYBE THEY HAVEN'T THOUGHT OR HAVEN'T PRIORITIZED AT THIS POINT. BUT NOW AS MORE, MORE AND MORE DEVELOPMENT GOES OUT THERE, I THINK IT BECOMES HIGHER AND HIGHER UP ON THE PRIORITY LIST. BUT I DO THINK IT WOULD BE PRUDENT OF US TO, YOU KNOW, SEE WHAT WHAT STAFF HAS TO SAY ON THE MATTER, IF THEY HAVE ANYTHING ANY KNOWLEDGE ON THAT OR, OR AT LEAST MAKE SURE THAT THAT IS NOTED IN THE MINUTES SO THAT WHEN THIS GOES TO COUNCIL, COUNCIL WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE A MORE CLOSER LOOK AT THAT. SO LOOKS LIKE WE DO HAVE SOME WHO WOULD LIKE TO COME AND ADDRESS THAT. CARL CREGO PUBLIC WORKS OFFICER AND OVER THE UTILITIES DEPARTMENT, WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT, I THINK A MAP MAY HAVE BEEN SHARED WITH THE GENTLEMAN WITH, WITH THE HIGH SCHOOL. THEY DID BRING A NEW WATER LINE IN FROM THOMPSON UP TO AVALON. AND UNDER DESIGN RIGHT NOW IS A WATER MAIN COMING FROM THE T BAR PRESSURE PLANE, WHICH IS A HIGHER PRESSURE PLANE, A DIFFERENT WATER SOURCE FOR THE ENTIRE CITY. SO WE'RE BRINGING A SECONDARY WATER SOURCE IN THIS AREA OF TOWN THAT'S IN DESIGN. CONSTRUCTION IS PROBABLY TWO YEARS OUT STILL, BUT WE ARE LOOKING AT IT. OKAY, SO Y'ALL ARE IT SEEMS LIKE YOU ARE LOOKING AT THAT THAT ISSUE. IT'S JUST A AT THIS POINT, IT MIGHT BE A TIME THING, TIME FRAME THING. OKAY. THANK YOU. QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. YES. SO CARL TALKED ABOUT THE UTILITIES AND WATER NEEDS. AND I'LL TALK ABOUT THE TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. 
          SO FOR EVERYONE'S AWARENESS, AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, YES, THIS IS A VERY HIGH GROWTH AREA. THE CITY DOES HAVE PLANS. IN FACT, WITH THE PARTNERSHIP WITH MIT, THEY'RE ACTUALLY EXTENDING AVALON AND THOMPSON. SO THAT'S GOING TO GIVE US ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO DISTRIBUTE TRAFFIC A LITTLE MORE EVENLY. EVERYBODY IN THIS AREA HAS TO COME BACK TOWARDS 191, BUT ONCE AVALON AND THOMAS ARE COMPLETE, FOLKS CAN ACTUALLY GO SOUTH AND EAST TO GO BACK OVER TO 250 IN THE LONG RUN. WE ALSO HAVE PLANS TO EXTEND DEAUVILLE TO THE WEST AND THEN BRING IT UP TO 191, AND THAT'S EVENTUALLY GOING TO BE AN OVERPASS. SO THE CITY IS WORKING CURRENTLY WITH THE MDC, AND MDC IS ACTUALLY PROVIDED FUNDING FOR THE DESIGN EFFORTS FOR THE OVERPASS OF 191 AND WHAT WOULD BE DEAUVILLE SLASH 1250. AND THEN WHEN THAT DESIGN IS DONE, THEN WE'LL WORK WITH THE STATE TO SEE WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT GETTING ACCELERATED FUNDS TO GET THAT OVERPASS DONE. SO PLANS ARE IN THE WORKS, BUT LIKE ANYTHING ELSE, IT JUST TAKES TIME TO ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT THOSE PLANS. SO JUST FOR THE AWARENESS ON LONG TERM REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION NEEDS, WE ARE ADDRESSING THAT ALONG WITH UTILITIES. WE APPRECIATE IT. 
          [00:20:04]

          I JUST ARE THERE ANY HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS? SO SINCE THE ZONING IS SF ONE, THAT ZONING RESTRICTS BUILDING HEIGHT TO 42FT. OKAY, SO TWO STORIES. YEAH. ALL RIGHT.

(Generally located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Solomon Lane and Acorn Lane.) (DISTRICT: 1) (DEVELOPMENT SERVICES) (QUALITY OF LIFE AND PLACE)]
THANK YOU. NEXT ON OUR AGENDA IS ITEM NUMBER 11. HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDER A REQUEST BY DARREN HENNINGTON ON BEHALF OF JOSH JONES FROM A AGRICULTURAL ESTATE DISTRICT TO SF, ONE SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING DISTRICT ON TRACT 16 IN THE EAST, 95FT OF TRACT 17 NORTH ESTATES, SECTION ONE CITY AND COUNTY OF MIDLAND, TEXAS. GENERALLY LOCATED AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE INTERSECTION OF SOLOMON LANE AND ACORN LANE. THANK YOU, CHAIRMAN AND COMMISSIONERS. ANGELINA BASSANINI, PLANNER, TO PRESENT ITEM 11. ITEM 11 IS A ZONE CHANGE SUBMITTED BY LAND SURVEYING TO DIVIDE THE PROPERTY INTO TWO LOTS. YOU SAW THE PRELIMINARY PLAT LAST MEETING. IT'S CURRENTLY ZONED AGRICULTURAL ESTATE, WHICH WOULD REQUIRE A TWO ACRE MINIMUM. SURROUNDING. TO THE NORTH IS AGRICULTURAL ESTATE AND A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT. TO THE EAST AND WEST IS AGRICULTURAL STATE AND TO THE SOUTH IS ALREADY SF ONE. THE LAND USE IS CURRENTLY A SINGLE FAMILY HOUSING WITH ALL SURROUNDING USES AS WELL AS THE PROPOSED. SAME AS SINGLE FAMILY HOUSING. HERE'S A PHOTO OF THE PROPERTY. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATES THIS AS URBAN RESIDENTIAL LARGE LOT. SO IT'S A RESTRICTIVE LAND USE. ONE OBJECTION WAS RECEIVED TODAY. THEY DID EXPRESS A DESIRE TO PRESERVE THE LARGER LOT SIZES WITHIN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. BUT THE STAFF WILL STILL ULTIMATELY RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THIS REQUEST. THERE ARE SEVERAL LOTS BOTH SURROUNDING THIS AND WITHIN THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT ARE SMALLER. AND WITH THAT, I'M OPEN TO ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS. 
          ANYTHING ELSE FOR STAFF? THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AT THIS TIME, I WILL OPEN UP THE PUBLIC HEARING AND ASK IF THE APPLICANT IS PRESENT. WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME SPEAK? OKAY. THANK YOU. 
          APPRECIATE THAT. IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THIS REQUEST? SEEING NONE, IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO IS OPPOSED OR WOULD LIKE MORE INFORMATION? YES, SIR. 
          NAME AND ADDRESS FOR JOSEPH CHAN PRICE. I LIVE AT 310 SOLOMON LANE, DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET AND HAVE LIVED THERE FOR 17 YEARS. I'VE SEEN A LOT OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE MOVE IN AND OUT OF THERE, AND IN FACT, MR. JONES HAS ALREADY MOVED OUT. THE HOUSE IS FOR SALE. SO AGAIN, SOLOMON LANE HAS TRADITIONALLY I HEARD HER SAY THERE'S A FEW THAT ARE SMALLER, BUT A TRADITIONALLY ALONG SOLOMON, THERE'S A LOT OF LARGER LOTS AND IT IS ZONED MORE FOR THE AGRICULTURE NEIGHBOR. NOT TOO FAR DOWN THE STREET HAS LLAMAS. SO THAT KIND OF TELLS YOU WHAT KIND OF NEIGHBORHOOD WE'RE IN. AND I HATE TO SEE THAT GO AWAY AGAIN, ME BEING RIGHT DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET. TO ME, IT MEANS THAT THEY'RE GOING TO SELL THE LOT OFF AND OBVIOUSLY BUILD ANOTHER HOUSE BECAUSE THE GUY'S JUST A GREAT NEIGHBOR. HE WAS A GREAT NEIGHBOR, BUT HE'S LEFT AND MOVED ON. SO I THINK IT IS DETRIMENTAL TO PROPERTY VALUES FOR THOSE ALONG FOR THOSE OF US ALONG SOLOMON LANE. SO I'M JUST IN OPPOSITION FOR THOSE REASONS, PRESERVING THE AGRICULTURE SIDE OF THAT. SO. OKAY. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO BE OPPOSED OR WISH MORE INFORMATION? ALL RIGHT. AS THE APPLICANT, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD? OKAY. THANK YOU. THEN I WILL GO AHEAD AND CLOSE OUR PUBLIC HEARING AND WE WILL GO TO THE COMMISSION. ONE QUESTION. IS THIS ALREADY AN EX INSIDE THE CITY LIMITS, RIGHT? YES, MA'AM. THIS IS INSIDE OF CITY LIMITS. AND THEN THAT JUST SOME BACKGROUND, THAT PLAN DEVELOPMENT THAT'S JUST TO THE NORTH OF IT, INCLUDING THE HOUSE ACROSS THE STREET. IT'S BASE ZONING IS SF ONE AS WELL. OKAY. THERE'S 4 OR 5 HOUSES ON SOLOMON. THANK YOU. I'LL JUST 
          [00:35:05]
SAY FROM MY OWN KNOWLEDGE OF SOLOMON LANE LIVING OUT THERE AND ALSO BEING ON THIS COMMISSION FOR A WHILE, SOLOMON LANE HAS MOSTLY BEEN THESE LARGER LOTS, BUT THERE HAVE BEEN MORE, MORE THAN ONE TIME WHERE PEOPLE HAVE TRIED TO COME IN AND, HAVE SMALLER LOTS TO SPLIT IT, DO SOMETHING. THEY WANTED TO HAVE SOME KIND OF DIFFERENT LIMITATIONS TO THEIR HOMES OR THE LAND THAT THEY HAD. SOME HAVE BEEN APPROVED AND SOME HAVE NOT IN MY HISTORY. SO IT'S KIND OF JUST DEPENDS ON WHO'S, WHO'S MAKING THAT DECISION AT THE TIME. ANOTHER QUESTION REGARDING THE SIZE OF THE LOT. DIVIDE THAT INTO TWO LOTS. AND THE TWO SOUTH OF THAT ARE ABOUT THE SAME SIZE. SO THE TWO LOTS TO THE SOUTH, THEY'RE BOTH ONE IS 0.84 ACRES. ONE IS 0.9 ACRES. SO JUST UNDER ONE ACRE. THE LOT CURRENTLY IS A 1.67 ACRE LOT. THERE IS TALKS IF WHEN IT SELLS POSSIBLY THEY MAY WANT TO KEEP IT AS ONE. BUT EVEN AS KEEPING IT AS ONE KIND OF PROPERTY RIGHT NOW, IT ACTUALLY IS STILL LEGAL NON-CONFORMING BECAUSE IT'S KIND OF A PARTIAL LOT RIGHT NOW. SO EVEN IF THEY DO COME BACK TO REPLAT AND COME INTO COMPLIANCE WITH JUST ONE LOT, THEY STILL WOULD HAVE TO REZONE BECAUSE THEY'RE STILL GOING TO BE UNDER THE TWO ACRE MINIMUM. THE ONLY HOUSES OUT HERE JUST KIND OF IN THE NEAR VICINITY, THERE'S ONLY 3 OR 4 THAT ARE MEETING THAT TWO ACRE MINIMUM. AND THOSE ARE JUST THOSE TO THE NORTH OF IT. 
          AND THE ZONING SPECIFICALLY, BUT MOST OF THEM ARE GOING TO BE UNDER THE AGRICULTURAL ESTATE RESTRICTION. RIGHT. AND REMEMBER, THE COUNTRY ESTATES HAVE TO BE A MINIMUM OF ONE. SO THAT'S TECHNICALLY WHAT IT SHOULD BE RIGHT NOW IS, IS A COUNTRY ESTATE, BUT NOTHING ELSE AROUND THERE IS, IS THAT. SO GOING TO SF ONE DOES ALLOW THEM TO MAKE THAT SPLIT AND ACTUALLY HAVE BOTH OF THEM BE EITHER HAVE AT LEAST HAVE THE ABILITY TO BE LESS THAN ONE. 
          THERE IS SOME COUNTRY ESTATES TO THE NORTHWEST QUITE A BIT FURTHER, BUT. RIGHT STILL. 
          RIGHT. YES. THE, THE OTHER THING THAT I WOULD ALSO MENTION IS EVEN IF YOU WERE TO DICE THIS IN TWO AND JUST PUT IT DOWN THE MIDDLE, THAT'S STILL QUITE A BIT OF LAND. AND THERE'S STILL SOME REALLY BIG HOMES THAT ARE PUT ON COUNTRY ESTATES AND, AND EVEN SF ONE LOTS. SO AS FAR AS HOME SIZE, I'M IT'S IT'S ONE. IT'LL BE UP TO THE, THE OWNER AND DEVELOPER. 
          BUT YOU CAN DEFINITELY PUT A BIG, BIG HOMES ON THOSE LOTS. SO THANK YOU. YEAH. ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE COMMISSION. DO I HEAR ANY MOTIONS. I MOVE FOR APPROVAL. ALL RIGHT. I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE THIS REQUEST FROM COMMISSIONER MARTIN. I'LL SECOND AND I DO HAVE A SECOND FROM COMMISSIONER. OH, FEEL. IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? IF NOT, WE'LL VOTE.
