Planning Commission - Regular Meeting

You can say if you will.

This is the Blunt County Planning Commission. I'm Daryl Tipton, chairman. Before we get started, we have a emergency exit announcement to make. Okay, thank you. I will call the meeting to order. U Secretary, do we have a quorum?

We have a quorum. We do have a quorum. Okay, first thing on the agenda, the approval of the minutes from October 23rd. Do I have a motion? Make a motion. I have a motion for Commissioner Giles. Do I have a second? Second. I have a second from Commissioner Hannam. Are there any questions or comments? Seeing none, are you will please vote? Motion passes.

The men are approved. Okay. We do have a public hearing tonight on the reszoning matter. Uh Mr. Buckner, can you help us with that?

Yes, sir. [clears throat] This is a a request to reszone 4.6 acres of a 7.2 acre tract. It's tax map 100 and parcel 009 and 00901. Those two [snorts] parcels have since been combined and that plaid is attached. Um this is the resoning request is to go from R1 to RAC which limits the first 500 ft back from the rideway and that's shown on the um the illustration that's attached. [snorts] And the last page is the zoning map and you can see that majority of the properties surrounding this one have also been reszoned to that rural arterial commercial district. So it' be consistent with what what's been done in the past.

Okay. This is a public hearing. If anyone here would like to speak to this item on the agenda, now's the time to do so. Seeing no one, we'll entertain a motion to forward to full commission. Do I have a motion? Have a motion by Commissioner Bleo. I have a second by Commissioner Mlen. Any discussion? Seeing none, if you're ready, please vote. Motion passes.

The motion passes. We'll pass along to the full commission. Now is the opportunity if you we have anybody in the audience would like to speak to any item on the agenda. This is a time for public comments on any item on the agenda. Seeing none, I'll declare that closed and move on. Next, we move to site plans. Uh Cameron, will you help us with that? [snorts]

Yes, sir. Th this [clears throat] first one is an addition a 405 foot addition to Eagle Rock Camp at 7143 Flats Road. It's a very small addition. Um it's additional assembly space, storage, and kitchen space. And you can see that on the the site plan. Um the reason it is in front of the commission is because it's an existing non-conforming use. So it predates the zoning ordinance. So it's not the addition is not something that we can prove approve administratively. Requires site plan approval by the planning commission. Okay. We'll [clears throat] accept a motion to approve with conditions. And we do have a motion by commissioner Hannah and a second by Commissioner Hodgej. Is there any discussion?

Yes, sir. Commissioner Giles. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Is this Eagle Rock? Is this the location as you get on the flats road on the right hand side? Is it like a religious camp? Do you know it is that that is a location? Okay. Thank you. That's all I have. Any other questions or comments? Seeing those you're ready to vote. Please do so. Motion passes. Next item, I believe you have that also, Mr. Cameron. I do. Okay. [clears throat]

This next item is a a site plan for Matthew Cross. It's for his automotive repair facility at 445 Datson Memorial Drive. The property is zoned commercial and it's currently undeveloped. It's 3/4 of an acre. Um the development [snorts] is just for a 4,000 ft building. There's attached building elevations, so you can see what that looks like. Um, the planning commission has to approve the the site plan before we can issue the the building septic and the driveway permits. They did submit a lighting plan and it it was compliant with our um zoning regulations as well. I can take any questions if you have them.

Looking for a motion to approve with conditions. We do have a motion by Commissioner Giles. We have a second by Commissioner Sullins. Are we having do we have any Commissioner Mlen? You have a question. So there's no access off of William Blunt. It's all off of the Yeah. All he showed more. That's good. All right. Yep. Did we get that answer?

Okay. You're okay with that? Is there any other questions? Seeing none, if you're ready, please vote. The motion passes. Let's see. Moving on to hearings. Appear to be none on any of the categories. We're down to miscellaneous items. Uh Mr. Hancocks, can you help us with that?

Yes, sir. Uh, we've got the replat of lot 17R TP village, top of the world. Um, we have a variance request to minimum lot size. If you want to look at the plat, I just try to explain it real quick. Um, these three lots exist. They're just simply taking the lot lines out. Uh, the reason the roads look funny is because they're private roads. So, don't we don't require dedication. The reason this comes to the planning commission is because staff cannot approve a lot with a variance. Um the lot size here is 14,984 square ft combined. Um and the regulations require 32,670 ft. So that's what the variance would be for. Uh the outstanding items to be completed are the consideration of the variance request by the planning commission to minimum lot size [clears throat] and number two modified certification as needed by the environmental health department signature plat with all required certifications platting fee and the environmental health department review fee and the variance request fee and I'll answer any questions if you have them.

Okay. Do we have a motion to approve the conditions? We have a motion by Commissioner Mlen. Do we have a second? A second by Commissioner Solins. Now, any discussion or questions? Seeing none, if you're ready to vote, please do so. The motion passes. That brings us down to public input on items not on the agenda. If you're here today talking about something which we haven't talked about, now's the time to step forward and discuss it. Seeing no one, I'll close that portion of the meeting. I will share with you that our next meeting will be January the 22nd. So you got a long break. We'll entertain a motion to adjurnn. All in favor? Uh meeting is adjourned.
