Tech Committee - Regular Meeting

Very well. Hello, I declare open the meeting of the technical committee of the county of Hancock. From this September 10th, let's start with the appeal.

Small note. Health.

Present. And yes. Present.

Present. Urbanism Commission. Present. Vulgarization service. Purdu.

Present. Very good.

I did not see the account of the last meeting.

We do not have the account of the last meeting to be sent. We will put this back at the next meeting. I did not see the account. Are they there? I did not see them. Let's start with the first point of the list. We have the Sing Retail Center. Is Sing there? No, me neither. Well, let's continue.

Can I get a motion to report this to the next meeting?

I propose a motion to report the Sing Retail Center to the next meeting. A motion and support. Discussions. Who is for? Me. And the 20 meters file has been withdrawn. Is that right? Number 3, Midwest Prison. Here it is. You can go around.

We have your comment sheets that we are going to put here for you. So you can come and get them.

And then you can give us a little summary of the project.

And then just introduce yourself and give us an overview of what you have. And just for information, we broadcast the meeting live. Everything that is said is from the public domain. So I'll let you start and then we'll go through the reviews. Yes, I am Mark Rogers from Ferguson Construction. Sean Mayer from Ferguson Civil. We have Paul Romero, who will be our project manager on this file. And we have Karen Scales from Midwest Presort. Midwest Presort has chosen to settle in this area. It's a 3-700 square meter post office. If you need technical details, you'll have to call Karen, because I can only see the mail. So we're going to set up the site. What is the size of the site?

3.8 hectares. 5.6 hectares. We only use one part of it. The north will remain a virgin land. Otherwise, we of course have the parking lot of the employees, the return areas for trucks, the quays, that kind of thing. We have a retention basin. This is where we are. I guess I'm going to start. Comments. It's in the middle of an examination for drainage, so it's submitted to this examination. A few questions for you. One thing. There is a service on the side and your property that crosses the field and which is used for this one. I know that M. Turner has drains and other things that go through there. So you might have to make sure you find them. And I wonder if there is a new drain that crosses the RISE property, why not use it instead of going through the public road? That's a good question.

Good question. Okay. So it may be something to be examined. If you end up going out on the public road, you will need the authorization of road services to do so. The other question concerns the back of the field. Will it continue to be cultivated or will it remain in the state? Do you know what you're going to do from this area to the back?

I still don't know what we're going to do. We're really in a hurry to build the building because of our bail. And we have two other sites in the county of Marianne. Lesbos arrives at the expense. So we're pretty open to that for now. It won't be anything for now. We make sure that the roads will go there, but we're not really there yet.

The only thing I would say is that I know that M. Turner owned and cultivated this property for a number of years. There is agricultural drainage in this field. So you should make sure when you start digging to connect them well if you do not plan anything for this back area for the moment. So it will remain usable. Keep that in mind when you go there. You may have to bypass a drain or another because you obviously do not want it to cross your building but to reach its destination.

But to reach its destination.

Is it a figure in your comments? No, because when you said you didn't know what to do with the back, it came to mind but I will review it with you during the drainage examination. You will receive these comments at this time. I just want to tell you that this meeting at this stage does not indicate that we will go to the technical examination, but we will address these points in more detail once the drainage examination is over. My father installed agricultural drains for 50 years, so I see what you are doing. Very good.

Perfect. Road service. I met Garry Poole on this subject. He has a concern. He would like employees to go from 75 feet east. She is too close to the BlueTongue, so he wants a little more space. That's why he would like her to be moved. And I'm sure that if you have any questions, you can contact Gary P and he will meet you to find a compromise. But that's what he asked for now.

Pardon, who is Gary?

Gary P, the county engineer. He is normally here, but he had a time conflict with another meeting, so he had to leave.

75 feet to the east.

I think he said 75. Yes, it's on the document. Yes, it's number one. It's over there, it's 75 feet. 75 feet. Because, as you have indicated, it is only 10 feet from the property limit and the time is about 15, so there is not enough space for traffic coming in and out. So he wants this separation for security reasons.

Okay.

So that was his reasoning.

No, we just have to examine that.

So there you go. And if you have any questions, you can contact him. Son numéro est en haut de la page avec nos commentaires. Vous pouvez l'appeler pour en discuter ou même venir le rencontrer en personne.

Bien sûr. Je n'ai juste pas retenu tous les détails par cœur.

Non, il faut regarder ça. C'est très bien. Aussi, vous avez listé du béton pour vos accès. Et il dit classe 4, un dot, les spécifications d'aller pour l'entrée des employés. Et comme vous allez faire venir les camions de courrier et tout le reste, ce sera une classe 6 pour l'autre entrée.

Okay.

Gary likes to follow Enda's specifications.

Only one or two trucks a day on this property. That's all. It's not like I don't know what these things are. I don't understand what these things are supposed to be, but I just want to make sure that you realize that there is really not a lot of traffic. This is not a type of warehouse. It's the post office that passes at 10.30 p.m., picks up the mail, that's all. We might only have one other truck per week that would deliver. The post office would deliver supplies.

It remains the same amount of concrete. It would be 23 centimeters.

I think she's probably referring to the entrance that...

The entrance, for the entrance of the employees. Yes, it's just a visibility problem. And with people who walk on a very busy road, he just wants to ensure public safety. So the separation of the alleys is what... Don't worry. And it's in the comments. Then at each entrance, when the trucks and the employees come and go, you need a stop sign at each place with a 60 cm stop line. With the stop line. And I also made comments on those of M. Turner, just like Chad, on the subject of field drainage, which has just been installed in front of it, from its field to the drainage ditch. And that's all I have. The Department of Health has nothing. Urbanism has some... Keila mentioned some concerns concerning the construction plans, the landscaping, the panels and the lighting. For the lighting, she noted that none of the proposed lights are respectful of the starry sky and that they must be. Also, some of the lights exceed the maximum color temperature allowed of 3500 Kelvin. So she wants details to show that each lamp is in accordance with the lighting standards. And then, regarding the construction plans, she needs the elevations of the building to be submitted with enough details to confirm that they also meet the design standards. How are these here? L'entraide n'a aucun commentaire. Faites une motion. Faites une motion pour accepter ce plan de Midwest pre-sort. with the changes made by the Geometer, by the Voirie and by the Urbanism.

I second the motion. One second. Other discussions on the motion? All those in favor? What is the next step?

So, you will have to deal with these points. You have to treat these comments so that it advances and from there they are already passed by the urbanism commission. Exactly. Because then that, the commission and all that, to move forward. You are right. And then once you have that, you can start and you will receive your exam. Drainage. Once it's over, you can start building.

Okay. Do you know when the drainage exam will take place?

Well, they are taking care of it right now. As soon as he has comments, he will send them to you and they will come back to you.

Should we have a meeting with him?

He will send you an email or he will give you a call. Okay. And then the exchanges will follow. Once it's done, they will come to my office.

We'll see what happens next. Okay. So it should move forward. Don't touch the earth before it's all over.

Very well sir.

Understood.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. Is Mr. Horner a local farmer or something like that?

C'est lui qui possédait le terrain au départ. Et il possède aussi des terrains à l'est et à l'ouest de cet endroit. Donc ces terres passent par là. Merci. Merci. Steve. Ensuite, la famille Rouchy sous division mineure. I'll take care of it. Yes sir. The Rouchi family owns a land of 15 acres that they plan to divide in two. One of their children intends to build almost immediately. That's why we're preparing all this. I have comments. But they are still on the board of my printer. I will also recover them. How?

Yes. Yes.

Your first state. No, someone was talking to me just before I arrived at the meeting and I completely forgot. Very well, I gave you a few comments that are there, you can consult them. Yes sir. Most of them, well the first one is simple, but the others concern rather ... Once they are ready to build a house for this location, given where the house will be, especially on the second floor, it places the really very close to the property limit. They are planning a basement for this house and the elevation of this basement will be below the level of the stream. So I don't know if the freeway is the ideal place for a basement for a basement. Yes, honestly, it's a temporary house plan. Very well. I took the worst scenario. At any useful end for your exam, the definitive mass plan will be different from this one.

No problem. I just wanted to show this. This is all I had from this point of view.

There are no comments. Thank you. You're welcome. You need the soil and the inversion on the sheet. In any case, the plan I had did not indicate any of this. I think so, but I'm going to take it. I can't read these little characters. I understand myself. Maybe I didn't get the full file. It's possible. Urbanism has a few of them. Kayla mentioned problems with some construction plans, the details of the plans. Landscaping and the mass plan. For the mass plan, she noted an incoherence between the declaration of intention and the pieces of the P.U.B. She noted that these pieces are the most recent documents, but that do not indicate certain pedestrian links.

I think it's... I think it's the green word.

Yes, that's it. It's not that one. Oh, okay.

It's...

I... No.

Sorry. Let's say you got me confused. Things that didn't make sense to me, but that's better. No comment.

I propose to accept this plan on the basis of the comments of the Geometer and the Health Service.

I second. The motion has been made and seconded. Is there a discussion on the motion? All those in favor? Thank you very much.

Thank you sir. No, I told them that they are on my printer at the moment. Someone came to talk to me just before I arrived here at the reception and my meeting made me wait. Then, Hancock Gateway Wellness. Mr. Harold. We are not going to review the ordinance page by page. If... I'm trying to bring your brother. J'ai essayé d'amener votre frère pour qu'il vienne vous chahuter, mais... Ça aurait été amusant. Donnez-nous un petit... aperçu ici.

Avec plaisir. Bonjour à tous. Je suis Harold Gibson, directeur du développement immobilier pour l'hôpital régional Hancock. C'est un plaisir d'être ici ce matin. Nous sommes ravis que vous examiniez notre projet de district de bien-être Hancock Gateway Park. C'est la suite de notre objectif de faire du comté de Hancock le plus sain de l'État et nous sommes enthousiastes quant au développement de Gateway Park de l'autre côté de la rue. And nous avons l'opportunité d'acquérir 42 hectares au sud de notre site actuel. Nous avons engagé les urbanistes de Humpkamp, basés à Fort Wayne. Matterpark Design collabore également avec nous. Nous travaillons avec Kim Leon et nous sommes sur le point de faire appel à Christopher Burke. Nous sommes très enthousiastes quant à cette opportunité, non seulement pour ce secteur immédiat, mais pour tout le comté de Hancock, d'Hancock. C'est notre mission. Cela a toujours été notre mission. Nous avons donc ces terrains sous contrat. Nous avons parlé avec bon nombre de nos voisins. Certains voisins ne sont pas encore prêts à vendre, mais nous avons acquis sous contrat autant de terrains que possible. L'intention est de raisonner. 4. District Waynders Fee. Currently, there are several districts gathered in a single PUD, a bit like what we did in the north of the street, in the north of the 200. Route 200 will be transformed, passing from a county road to a village road with parking and buildings close to the public road, with low retreats. This section will become a residential area for mixed use. It is also planned to create a city center with mixed-use buildings and several floors, integrating shops to promote social interaction. A well-being district aims to combine work, accommodation and leisure. It is intended for socialization. According to the recommendations of our urban planners, socialization is essential to well-being and health, and we are very enthusiastic about it. Nous aimerions utiliser la plaine inondable comme zone de parc et de jeux. Ce sera un parc linéaire d'environ 14 hectares. Comme je l'ai dit, nous avons des professionnels qui travaillent là-dessus. L'un des points les plus passionnants de ce projet est sans doute l'aire de jeux inclusive. This inclusive play area will occupy about 1 to 2 hectares of the site. If you have never heard of it, I didn't know the concept myself a few months ago, it was brought to our attention. So this is not our initial idea, it comes from the outside, but it is a play area where any child, whatever their disability, can play and not only play but also interact with valid children. They do not see the difference. For the first time, they can play on a game area where they interact together. We have a consultant from Saint-Louis specialized in inclusive 1-1-1 game. She founded it several years ago. She had a newborn child with a syndrome that forced her into a wheelchair. He died at 21 years old, after which she started this mission and built 164 across the country. She works with an architect from California who designs them for her. So we have them under contract. We are working on it. We hope to work on a final design if it is approved. But it is a destination. It is also a very important economic development engine for us. We are quite enthusiastic about the overall plan. It will be the first phase, the park. And ... mixed. We have a hotel that has signed for a plot along 200 north. We are delighted. We have meetings with promoters of mixed projects in about a month, maybe for one of the components of the city center. So I can review the ordinance if you want, or we can certainly answer all your questions, but it is a very enthusiastic ordinance. It's not supposed to be a definitive plan. The process would be to submit a detailed plan and a disastrous plan after that, for which we still have Associates ready to hope to submit it next month and to continue this advance.

Thank you sir, I beg you. In fact, I have two questions, I have only one written. Have you examined, while heading west from yours, the new project that is coming from the other side? So just make sure to see how this area makes the transition with the adjacent area. Cumberland builds a lot on the other side by arriving at 700, not there, up there. So just make sure that they coexist well together when they join. I guess it's just... something to examine. So just... No problem. The other thing is, and I know you said you were going to work with Buck. Just make sure by working in the floodplain, which also has a flood zone that crosses this place. So keep that in mind while you work on it. And I won't send this to Carrie if you use Burke. So this will go to the DLC? Yes. Oh yes, it has no comment. The health service has no comment. Urbanism has a few comments. Regarding the construction plans, the landscaping... Sorry, bad page. The PUD order document and the site plan, the site arrangement and... Well, essentially these two comments. Perfect. Very good. The 8 has no comment, but I would recommend contacting Eric Puhl, the head of the Buckwick Township firefighters, to work on your civilian plans.

I would love to do that.

I don't think we're already in contact. I would be happy to do it.

Absolutely. We have an excellent relationship and we want to maintain it. So it's very important for us. Yeah.

And I love the idea. You know, inclusive parks, it's a great thing. I have an older brother who is blind from birth. So it's interesting to see how it all works together and what it brings to his children. So, take them. Yeah, I think there should be a vote on that. Is it rather conceptual? Well, I think it's our recommendation, maybe for the most humble. Is this how it goes? I think because then the PUD... I mean, there's really nothing. You know, just a conceptual plan of the PUD. I would say that giving a favorable or unfavorable opinion is what we expect from this. On this development, Hancock County, Gateway, New Gateway Park 1S, do we give a... Yes or no? Well, I would say that with the completed comments that we have... With the completed comments? And we will then... And these completed comments come from the Geometer. And did you have any? I had some. You didn't have any. And urbanism? And mutual aid? I second. I am a second. Any other discussion on the motion? All those in favor? Opposition.

Very good. Thank you very much everyone. Thank you sir.

I'm glad to be here.

I think it will be really beneficial for our community.

I talked to your brother yesterday about this other case that did not end today. I thought he would be there and I said, you could sit on the other side.

Other stupid questions. We are live so I shouldn't say that. Are there any other cases to be dealt with? Old cases. New cases.

Eric Toul is now the Marshal of the firefighters of Buck Creek. And the new fire marshal of Vernon Township starts on Monday. So we brought Eric from the city of McCordville. And then, okay. Welcome, Eric. Other points to discuss. I'm waiting for a motion. I propose to raise the session. I second. Very well.
