Congratulations. Welcome. Uh we'll move on to item number five. Present presentation and discussion on proposed new single family dwelling at 1 College Street in the Historical Preservation District. Good evening members. I thought that the property owner was going to be here to present, but hopefully I can help with this presentation. Let's see here. So, they are proposing a new single family dwelling at 10005 College Street. It's of course located in the historic um preservation district. It's at the close to the end of College Street there. Um the orders are Blake and Natalie Mulla and you'll see the plans there for the house. They've given a pretty good detail of how they're going to cover each aspect of the design standards that's required in the historic preservation district. So I'm hoping that you're able to see how they're going to propose the look of this structure. I was hoping that we would also get paint actual paint chips and examples of
the roofing material that was going to be used for the house. Um, sorry about it. And if you have any questions, u I'll try to answer it. Pier and bean. Is it going to be a pure look at the detail? It looks like it. Yes, ma'am.
Water that property. What are they going to do with that water? Well, the water actually is more on the northern portion of the property and not this side right here or the southern portion of the property, not the northern portion. So, actually it's more of the the other property than it does this property here. But it comes but it does come. Yes. Yes. So, have they spoke to the engineers or anyone about Not at this time. Okay. And so there this house is similar to about the about the fifth house from that, right? It could be cuz that one is up off on the up off the ground too.
House. If you count up, you got a house with the barn and then you got the um a little historic home single story. Yeah. And then there's a white and then there's white. Yeah, kind of similar to the design. This kind of sits right behind the last home that was built down. The new one right now, right? Actually, that would be their parents that live in the new one. Oh, really? This was the lot. Remember, she said something. Okay. Okay.
She wanted to She told us that when she was doing the house. Okay. I was hoping that at least with the design standards for the historic district, she was able to answer most of the questions on how they would meet those guidelines that we had. She did mention a couple variance requests. Would that come back before us for Yes. This is simply the presentation just to get feedback from you all see where your main concerns might be. Mine is how far the grade is. That's why they're hoping for that small pass area there underneath the home so that yeah,
so if I remember right, I think what Zach was even saying that that other home that was put on there, there's really no drainage studies done on residential. Correct. It's correct. Okay. It's all up to Harris County. No, Montgomery County. Sorry. Five options. It's up to Harris County. Did they already take this? Sorry. So, they would that would be done through the the county. Not quite because we don't send building permit applications to the county.
It would probably support the building permit application. That would be up to the building official when he looks at the plans. Especially since this lot is smaller than an acre lot. typically an acre and over, isn't it? Acre and over. Y that um that kind of study would occur with the with
But we we have trouble in downtown McGomery right now with water and backing up onto other people's property. I mean, we speak about this all the time. I mean, like almost every meeting. Um is there a way that we could ask the homeowner and the builder like what are your solutions? What is your remedy? Do you culverts? Are you doing a make rocks move the water go a certain way or the direction or whatever? Cuz it is a concern. Like I can get clarification for that. That was way I walked around that property way before all them other houses were there and I was like well when I seen this
it looks nice. Mhm. See, the only thing that I saw they had this the shingle on there, but they didn't they don't have any paint painting paint scheme, right? Waiting on that. We'll wait on that. Okay. I know she was going to bring the actual um sample. Okay. Is that a little section zone? It is not at least not on this side of the property. We're just it is a waterway tributary.
There is an example of I know doesn't do it right for paint color, but it's just from the bed. If you're better than me, you can. And just like with the that roof tile there, it's just from the copier. So
what I could do is have her request or request that she come in again maybe next TNC and prepare something more detailed with the actual samples, right? Address the drainage. going to address the drainage. I know that she said that she was going to have um an engineer possibly look at this to make sure that there's no issues with that. I mean, the style home and what she has is, you know, yeah, the home looks nice
within that. So, yeah, we just need some paint paint schemes and just like the the shutters where they're black, you like to see what color that is. Right. Right. And the doors think is what looks like there was a moisture wipe for something. Okay. And the the windows I know that she's proposing the um is that the things in the center of the window. It would be black.
Okay. There it is. And if you're asking about a garage, I did ask that was going to come later. What's that? This time it would just be the ground which you know that in a single family would be or a single family res and the setback is still 25 ft off the property line or is it when it's personal? This is where the variance is going to come in. Okay. So, we'll get a better site plan that will show that request
and also to the driveway like the width of the driveway and stuff. They'll tell us all that when we need Okay. They're just asking if we like it. Yes. The design um so that our architect can continue. So, it looks like they're they're asking the same setbacks as parents. same at 10 foot. I don't think the parents received any variance. They talked they were t they talked about a lot of stuff when they brought they when they brought this to us when they were presenting the house in the beginning they
this one here I I think she's going to propose a front yard variance the rest all the other varian would probably Sorry, I couldn't give you any more details. If you need the floor plan, let me know and I can add that to other packets. I think it was more the design elements. Yeah, I agree.
What about the water and it's city water and it's in adherence with the fire hydrant enough water there and all that. I think the utilities are right there. Mhm.
I know that you don't see a landscape plan that there's a lot of trees and what are they doing about that? He was going to ask. So, do they have a proposal what it is they think? Well, it may seem a lot. Yes. Okay. I walked through it. I was going to buy it one time from the previous owners. The trees are on the sideards. Yes. Yes.
And it looks like they're going to leave some of the front yard trees. I think that part of that they might be ready to come down. I guess what is the unofficial landscaping plan or tree tree plan? We'll make sure that that place. Yeah. Okay. Anything here you'd like for me to note or maybe a next presentation? color examples and the site plan.
I think that's the main main issues. Main issues. There's no action on this one. No action. Just wanting your feedback. So, what are you going to ask to come back with? What is the list we've given you? I have the uh drainage concerns, a landscape plan to go along with the site plan, and then of course the color examples. If you want I believe that that's a question that she answered here in the
Yeah, I was trying detail. No proposed fencing at this time.
Number two, page three. Yeah, that's it. Thank you.
Thank you. Okay. Number six, which is consideration possible action on building April 7th, 2026. I make a motion to approve the planning and zoning commission meeting minutes of April 7, 2026 as presented.
I second. We have a motion and a second for the approval of the April 7th, 2026 meeting minutes. All in favor? Say n. Motion passes unanimous. Uh move on to the regular agenda. Consideration of possible action by the planning and zoning commission on the preliminary plaque for BCS capital development development number 2415.
Good evening commission. Uh my name is Patrick Jones, city engineer. Uh work with WGA uh consulting firm that handles all civil engineering needs for the city. just kind of introduce myself to those new on the commission. Um, in front of y'all today is a preliminary plan for the BCS capital development that's going on uh within the city of Montgomery. Uh, I will direct you to pages 34 through 40 of your package. Um, on this or within these pages, you'll see the formary plaque with our comments that were outstanding. in front of y'all as a hard copy. You'll see the revised uh version submitted by the development that addresses all of those comments. Uh two kind of just sticking points uh to uh discuss with y'all tonight. Um this development again is a commercial and multif family development approximately 38 acres located between Buffalo Springs, CV Stewart and 105. um just opposite of Home Depot um and on the same site as the ransom stands. Um in front of y'all again is a plinary flat. This is more of an administrative task for y'all. Um y'all would be reviewing and approving the bottom plat as well, which would be recorded with the county. Um, on this plaque you will see uh a list of reserves on page 36 of your packet outlined as uh unrestricted reserves. All these reserves would have to come back for y'all um for approval as they're not confirmed as to what they're going to be yet. The ones fronting 105 will be commercial. The one in the back reserve a um is to be multif family. um they are currently working through kind of the scoping and size of that uh future multif family site um as their previous buyer um backed out of the development. Um and again we'll come back to y'all
for review and approval as well. Um to date they have or were working through um plans the civil plans for development mass grading DIA uh and the site table for Texas roadhouse which is one of the uh first outline tenants of the development. Um this property and development would be subject to impact fees. NFDs are essentially uh when a development connects to the city's infrastructure, water, sanitary, sewer, there is a charge for that quote unquote impact to the city system. Um that impact fee is estimated to be $437,000 uh between an assumed six commercial pads with a 2in meter and one multif family uh unit with one one uh one 3-in meter. These would be confirmed once we go through the final planning and kind of have a more fleshed out idea of what is going on within the site. Um and again with our review of the civil plans for uh review approval. Again, y'all will have the opportunity to review the pharmarmac and the future uh reserves once they are dedicated to either multif family or commercial for yall on this as well. Um there is a variance with this development. The variance is only for parking. Um on the multif family site, uh they are allowed a variance of one second.
What kind of parking?
Um for the apartment complexes on the north side, again, we haven't seen those plans for review as they're still going through uh identifying a buyer for that lot. Um and it was uh parking ratio of 1.5 uh from two and a requirement that 60% of the units are required to be one bedroom for that multif family development and again that would be coming at a later date as uh the plans and buy the developers engineer is here if you have any specific questions about the development. Was that the parking was that the same the same variance the the previous developer asked for BCS? So they've only asked for that one.
That's what I'm saying. Correct. Yeah. So it's the same one. Nothing new. This was approved back in 25 along with the development for BCS. So right now the multif family is in reserve H. A A is on the corner of CV store in Buffalo, right? The largest of the reserves. So they did revise the reserve from what's in our packet to what we have here. Yeah, correct. The hard two additional H&I. Yes. On the front of 10:00. Correct. Yes. Was the I know probably getting ahead of ourselves. Was there a drainage pond that they had to make room for?
Yes. So that is a reserved beef. I believe that should be the same as what's in that hard copy of yours dedicated to open space and drainage. Okay. Gotcha. Okay. So that'll that'll that'll run most of the distance. Correct. about seven of the 38 in. Yeah. Okay.
How many entrances there are? And Leslie, correct me if I'm wrong. One entrance on 105. There's two. Um, sorry, I'm Leslie Real with Els Engineering. Um there's two off of 105 that are currently in review with text dot and then along um CB Stewart and Buffalo Springs. I know there is one on Buffalo Springs. I believe there's two off of CB Stewart. Did I get that backwards? No, that's our that's our number as well.
Um those don't include the multif family entrances, but since the multifamily layout is kind of changing, um those may So those are two additional along 105 in between Buffalo Springs and CB a total of two. One additional one additional, correct? Yes, sir. Okay. When did those go to textile? Um they've been there for a while. Uh text dot reviews have taken um at least six months um maybe longer than that. Um but text dot's new review system permits have been taking a while. So
and they're also reviewing the drainage and everything as well. So that's part of why it's taking a little bit longer. Okay. And I know it's separate, but just while we're talking about this building, they're are they improving Buffalo Springs, the rest of the remainder?
Yes. So from essentially where Home Depot ends up to the intersection of CB Stewart, Buffalo Springs and then from approximately where Clifford Street is to 105 CB Stewart and that for that's a big I know again this is not necessarily part of planning but that's a big drop from 300 down to 260. Are we talking about more retaining walls in Montgomery?
Yes. Okay. Pretty much throughout or just more at the retainage? Um, I believe the last version of the mass grading set that we have, we have a retaining wall along probably 2/3 of the frontage on 105. Um, and then the a portion of the way up Buffalo Springs, basically from the corner of 105, a little bit um under where the Home Depot improvement of the Buffalo Springs pavement is stopped. Uh, we have a retaining wall there. Um, and then there's one along the Ransoms uh steakhouse property as well, just to try to um help with that elevation change.
Okay. Will that wall be contained potential detention? Um, along CV Stewart, sorry, Buffalo Springs.
No. So, the there's no wall in um the pond on CV Stewart Buffalo Springs. Sorry, my streets mixed up. Um on Buffalo Springs there is not a wall in the pond. Um we kept that and pond and that pond landscaping will be taken care of by the developer.
Yes. All private improvements. Okay. I'll make a motion that we recommend approval of the preliminary plat preliminary platinary for BCS capital development development number 2415.
A second. Have a motion and a second for the recommendation for the approval of the preliminary plat uh for the CBS Capital Development development number 2415. All in favor say I. I.
Oppos say no. Motion carries. Okay. Consideration and possible action by the planning zoning commission on the preliminary plaque for Briley formally. Good evening commission. So, I'd like to direct your attention to page 43 of y'all's packet. Um, from 43 on to 46, you'll see our red line comments of the latest revisions um of the coronary plat for this detention bond. In front of y'all is a hard copy of the revised clean version of all comments addressed. Again, very similar to the BCS property. This is just a preliminary plat to uh again administratively complete and show what is being proposed as far as the plan of this site. Um this site would not be subject to impact fees as there is no home or connection to the city system being proposed within it. This is just the reserve for their detention. If there any specific questions, I can answer those.
Where does it run to? It will outfall to uh how it existently outfalls um essentially just south of their property or I guess actually souththeast of their property into tributary.
Yes, tributary existing tributary. Look at this. I'll make a motion that we approve of plat formerly known as Meadows Honda 2 development number 20006.
A second.
Okay, we have a motion and a second. Recommend approval of platform Meadows on A2 development number 20006. All in favor say I. Say no. Motion passes. Item number nine. Get a piece of paper here. Consideration of possible action by the plan zoning commission on blackber section 7 number 206. Good evening. Again, very similar plat in front of y'all tonight. Uh this one and the next item are a little different because they do include uh homes, single family homes for uh construction. So I'll outline a couple things just for your attention. Um based on the approved uh development agreement uh from 2023, the developer has the following variances from their development. Uh minimum lot width of 60 ft from 75 ft. A minimum lot area of 8,400 square ft from the typical 9,000 ft. sideyard setback of 5T from a typical 10 uh 10 feet and then pending council action on the 12th would be no tree assessments for the remaining sections of development. Section 7 8 which are in front of y'all tonight and then section 9 which be in front of you at a later date. outlined here um in y'all's packet again is the redline version of what we
provided them and then as a hard copy in front of y'all tonight is uh the cleaned up revised version of said develop our orary plat excuse me they since address all comments um this plat or development portion of development excuse me would be subject to impact fees that are outlined in our supporting memo um the water for the development would be 200 266,984 while the wastewater would be $27,18. There is a credit for uh the water impact fee as developer did fund the construction of oldville water line move which essentially took water along Old Bersville up old doins and connected it across the street uh on 105 right next to the high school athletic complex. One interesting caveat or I guess update on this plant specifically is reserve B is the future water plant number four site. This is located on the hard corner of older building and Old Dobbins. Um you'll see in your packet a smaller version and on your hard copy a larger version of the water site is approximately 1.1 acres. Um all equipment and such. We are expecting a deed within the next couple weeks to be submitted by the developer will be executed by the city um to have that properly formal property, excuse me, formally handed over to the city for ownership.
Did you say was that B?
Yes. B is in. So, it's going to be on that hard corner of old planetville and old do. And an additional reminder separate to that, the developer was also required to dedicate a rideway along Old Frightville Road for a shared access path um along the front. Again with uh similar with the other preliminary plats, you would have the opportunity to review the final flat as well um to make any additional comments or questions and have those answered as well. And quick reminder, uh, because the variances are still pending approval or action by city council, your action tonight would only be either denial or approval contingent upon council approval of other variance requests. If those variance requests are denied, we would have to come back and have the builder submit a treaty assessment for this section of development. So is there what's the tree variance consist of?
The variance on that specifically is regarding their uh requirement to submit a tree assessment and essentially that tree assessment outlines all existing trees on the property um and their condition, age, type etc. What the developer was citing at our last Quinzy meeting was that their uh commitment to uh larger than normal uh expenditures on landscaping throughout the site. If y'all had a chance to look out uh and drive past the development, they are planting trees, shrubbery, landscaping, etc. throughout the development. So, they're not uh concerned, well, not necessarily concerned. They are trying to promote uh and provide a product that is going to be selling homes. Um and they have left some older trees. Correct.
Exactly. So on section seven, there aren't any existing trees or at least ones that they're wanting to keep. Section 8, your next uh approval, there are existing trees that they are planning on keeping and again promoting additional trees being planted within or throughout the entire subdivision. We talked about this last meeting, correct? To make us aware of this.
Yes, ma'am. I just keep on. Can you uh go over what you were telling us about reserve B? You said it was kind of different. The only thing that you add
so on the hard or on the copy any packet the reserve B is a smaller reserve. Uh we are going back and forth with the design engineer for water plan number four as well as the developer to kind of confirm the final site plan. There's additional equipment that we're wanting to propose on site uh future GST future booster pumps to allow for some redundancy when we have to maintain that EST. So we had to expand the site by development agreement. They were required to provide a 2acre site, but based on kind of what we're proposing, the 1.1 and change acre site is sufficient for all future and proposed phase one improvements of that plan. When will that be finalized? what they're what is going to be decided on that water plant when when is that decision going to be filed?
So, we're actually um going through 90% drawings and specifications right now with the plan to bid that this summer. Um so, coordinating that with city staff as well as the engineer on making sure that we have all the required documentation for TCQ and LSAR groundwater conservation district approval. And once we have all of that, we'll be bidding and constructing. construction timeline is probably going to be about a year between product equipment acquisition and well drilling. Well drilling, excuse me. So after summer. Yes. Of 2026.
Yes ma'am. So yeah, late summer, early fall and that should last us another full year. So by this time or I guess a little bit Yeah. This time two years from now, we should be wrapping up construction. And that water plant is helping
provide pressure or address pressure uh inadequacies on the west side of town. So from essentially town hall or city hall where we currently stand west all the way out to hills of town creek there's pressure issues. Um so providing that EST and water plant number four will help address pressure issues as well as provide water to the brown sub. So along with that and additional water lines that we're providing are requesting from other developers like being one, they're required to extend a water line along Parkway. Uh the Carwell track would be required to extend that portion of water line from their track all the way down to the Miltown Creek track that provides a water line along parkway along 105. We are um sufficient in that we have water lines on both sides of the highway. um 6 in on the south or north side and then 12 in on the south side. But again, trying to address all the uh water pressure issues that we can with these developments. And
and what does the city say about this? Is the is the city in agreeance with this is going to help with that water pressure because we have some other stuff that's coming down 105. Yes, ma'am. So, this has all been coordinated with C staff since I've been working with the city. Um so, they feel good that this is
should address and will address all issues. Yes, ma'am. A part of our review of that water plant just to provide some uh clarity and transparency. We're reviewing with Hayes, the city's operator and public works, Mike and his team. So, they've been up to speed and updated on all ongoings with that development as well as city staff. City staff are recently authorized back in February uh the cell cos to fund not only the water plant number four but also phase one of the town creek waste water treatment plant which is your plant along 149. Again, this is all to address uh demand that we're projecting out in the next few years
and and it's going to be good enough for the growth of so you've projected to what year? We so our projections are upwards of 2040. Um realistically what we're able to accurately and you know more concretely project it's approximate to about 2030 with all of our ongoing developments. This plant as well as town creek phase one would get us through all active developments that we're currently projecting out. That includes the remainder of Riley, formerly known as Red River Meadows, Legacy Grove, BCS Capital, HB. Um, those are Caroline Court, which is the one right across the street. Um, where are the buildings? Lonear Hills, which is going on along Parkway, uh, adjacent to the canal. Um, Montgomery Crossing, which is a development.
That's only two and a half years. It is. And we are actively in I've been sitting here for two years and they're like like a lot more intense to go back. Yeah. Well, we are definitely um and aware of all the ongoings. You know, we're meeting with staff regularly on, you know, pre-development meetings and making sure that our timing is matching up with the timing of development and making sure that we're having these facilities put online prior to development comments. And that's one of the things that we're trying to make sure that we're not put in a situation where we're short on water or the ability to provide sanity food service in the city. and and whose decision was it to go from two acres to 1.1 and a little more?
So that was essentially based on what we're proposing and what's required to meet that demand. We're not going to need the full 2 acres in between spacing requirements from the TCQ and all other access points from the city uh point of view. We have sufficient space for that. Um so it's about space. It's not about quantity of water. No water. Yeah. We would still have the same capacity if we had two or 1.1 acres. Well, it's kind of concerning that it's 2 and a2 years in reality and you know we're in upwards of 2040. So then you know then you're looking at 12 and a half but reality is 2 and 1/2 years. And I will say we've been going through this process for but they've been in design for a little bit over a year now. And so
but but it'll be it'll be completed in about two years. Right. Correct. Correct. So in two years it may not be enough. We are pushing and again as of what we stand and what we are aware of today that is sufficient for the developments that we're projecting out within full city limits.
I definitely understand the concern. This is something that we again talk about daily with city staff as well as internally making sure that we're providing enough capacity on the water and sewer side of um the city. So essentially whenever we go through a feasibility study for a development that's coming into the city, we run through the numbers, make sure within our feasibility studies that we have the adequate capacity and we're projecting that out. Um making sure that we're accounting correctly. And then even still we're on the very conservative side of things. Realistically right now we're probably at about 45% capacity of our sewer, but we're again planning for the future and making sure that we can essentially triple that uh in the next few years. So what our decision tonight um will send it to city council
correct for their final preliminary plan would get approved here tonight. Next week, city council will take action on the varian request for tree assessment. And then the following, city council, which would be May 24th, I believe, um they'll take action on the plary fl. But again, you would still have an opportunity to review the final once it's submitted for us for review. That comes back to us. Correct. I I'm I'm to be honest, I'm really concerned about the the water. like I I I don't know what I can do if we say yes to this and it goes to city council and then they go over some stuff. You know, we got till May 24th. But the the bottom line is is
this is all and this is all again address your concern. This has all been accounted for with our projections for capacity within water plan number four as well as uh town creek plant phase one. And so who who is it city hall has has been involved with this? city engineer, city administrator, all staff, mayor, all staff, all all and they're all aware of it. Yes, ma'am. And everyone is got smiles on their face when they brought it to us.
Wouldn't say smile. We definitely have to show some confidence. You know, we're trying to make sure that we're providing adequate plans and planning for that. So between budget season, CIP workshops, development meetings with developers, and kind of addressing and seeing, you know, if they're projecting their developments are coming online as soon as they're actually coming online. And again, we're adjusting our excuse, projections weekly. And then this project was started, correct? We know this is coming. This isn't something that's here tonight. Correct.
This one has been coming for a while. Um again related to this development improvements to old plantersville three party agreement with the city county and the developer to make improvements to old plantersville road dedication of the water plant site and as well as the Broadway uh acquisition or dedication excuse me um for that shared access path along. So again this has been planned for since 2023 and we're now seeing kind of a proof of that labor with three party agreement water plant site construction etc. Where does I'm just playing catchup. Where does Briley get their water from now to city? Yes.
And once the water tower is completed, it's still all city. So as a part of the development agreement, they had to construct and extend a water line along essentially from where their entryway is on Old Plannersville up to 105 by a complex. That was to provide water service and create essentially a loop from where they are I guess right here in front of city hall where water line exists all the way through the whole zone on the other side and again addressing bottlenecking and pressure issues that we're noticing on west side of town. I have a question. So originally it was 2 acres and then it was reduced.
By development agreement it was 2 acres. That was to again kind of overshooting what we would believe will be required as far as spacing and everything goes TCP requirements on spacing between ESTs wells and homes and structures as well as electric utilities dry utilities etc. We overestimated the two two acre site but realistically with all those parameters and requirements in place 1.1 is sufficient. So you're saying once you refine the numbers then you determine Yes ma'am. Okay. What about the need for future expansion that so that was taken into account again with the 1.1 acre that so even with 1.1 it allows for future expansion. Correct.
Yeah. So we have the ability to expand on that site as well as water plant number three adding in additional hydro pneumatic pumps. We're currently going through construction. We actually have a had our final inspection on the booster pump edition for that water plant site uh last week. So again, all facilities are kind of, you know, gearing up for improvements. Town free wast treatment plant being one, booster pump edition at water plant number three. Just last year, we had a water plant improvements project on water plant number two to uh replace the GST and add a new uh water well, thousand GPM water well. Again, understanding the concerns of the city and citizens, we're trying to make sure that projecting out in terms of what we're seeing in terms of development is being adequate because the use has to reflect what we're doing with the plants. It wouldn't make sense if we're upsizing these plants and not seeing the use. You all know that we're seeing projections and people coming in developing the city. So, we're making sure that those facilities are in place prior to that development coming up. I don't think I have any more questions.
Okay. I make a motion to pass uh number eight consideration possible action by the planning and zoning commission on preliminary prior on A2 development number 2006 section seven text. Sorry, I flipped it. I didn't clip it. So, sorry. Section seven, development development number 2006. Thank you. Do you all contingent upon the variance approve a varian request approval from city council? Yes. I'll second with that contingency.
Yes. Perfect. I have a motion and second for the recommendation of the preliminary plat uh for the Bryley formerly known as Redbird Meadows section 7 development number 20006 um contingency tree assessment city. All in favor say I.
I passes. Okay. Item number 10, consideration of possible action for the planning zoning commission on the preliminary plat for Bley, formerly known as Redbird Meadows, section 8, development 206.
Very similar to the last item we all saw. Um the only difference here is the impact fees being assessed on this section would total 63,288,000 uh $288 with a credit of $239,696 for the water construction of the water line that they did. Is that dural?
Final final. And so what you'll notice moving forward um as you kind of rectify costs that were incurred from that water line, we will reduce that credit or remove it entirely once the credit has outlasted or not outlasted the construction cost for that water line. So we should see some of that realistically maybe within section 8 um but entirely within the future sections nine and operate and to Marian's point earlier this is the section that has the existing tree that they're That's shown on page 57 of your package. That hatched area in the bottom right corner. All existing trees as they're looking to piece to some extent. Obviously, the houses have to be put on the site, but for the most part, all those trees are going to be Again, very similar to the last item, this uh action tonight will either be denial or approval content upon the city council for action on request on May 12th.
Oh. I'll make a motion that we approve with the contingent of city council approval of the tree assessment uh variance uh the preliminary plat for Briarly formerly known as Redber Meadows section 8 development number 20006.
A second. Okay, motion and second for the recommend approval of the preliminary plat to the city council for the uh Riley, formerly known as Redbird Meadows, section 8, development 206, which includes the uh stated variances with the tree assessments. All in favor say I. I. Oppose say no. Eyes have it. Item 10 passes. Thank you. Moves on. Thank you. Okay.
Okay. Commission inquiry. Does anybody here have a any discussions or issues or I have too the downtown where we're putting the trees and removing the um house and all that stuff? Are we into the 180 days that we spoke about that said it would take once the project started? approximately 180 days. Look at that.
Back again. Um so yes, we are we started uh phase three of that development which includes relocation of that house and uh planning of that retreat that you discussed. Um we're currently going through with our sub consultants, the landscape architect and electrical consultants to make sure that we have everything we need um to get moving on the contract our contract documents for that project plan specifications etc. We should be meeting or not should we are planning on meeting with the downtown property owners um with the MEDC coordinator um Miss Kimberly Gonzalez Gonzalez. Thank you. Um in the next few weeks to kind of discuss you know potential um grant monies that would be available to have certain improvements made on private sites to those uh back facades back street. Um and again we'll get those conversations started um here in the next couple weeks or so. But yes, the one of the daily days approximately started.

she knew that it was for Tuesday, but she doesn't know why she was she didn't know which Tuesday. Well, it was the sixth Tuesday, I guess. Yes. I'm going to ask you. Okay. from what was allocated to. So that's what one of the things we have to coordinate with MDC coordinator and MDC identifying those we have problems right being like soft grants correct okay to utilize to move in the building is that what you're talking not for the building this is strictly for
businesses like yours if you want to across the street well no it'll be all businesses if you want to do like you know do the front of your building it's like a 5050 grand. EDC will give you 50% of the money to even if it's like now they're going to do that shut the gallon down for a day and fix everything. Wanted to put them on on the 149 like where you are. Yeah, we could do that. Talking about concrete planters and permanent ones. We're planning to put uh irrigation in them so they can be well. Yeah, these will be well planned out. Those were just kind of temporary intel. Okay.
And I'm glad you mentioned that because the what are they going to do? So this is your email lot that's adjacent to cheat with communications. Okay. Um we own that lot. At least we we purchase. Yeah, we have them. So we wanted to put some uh trees. two as the lot itself before the like four or five not not not huge because somebody want to build that sometime money for it can you get money retrospectively if we did it
you could and then requested at a later date it's not going to happen I mean it's not like it it It all depends on the EDC and how they set up the grants and how it's allocated. Yes, it's not going to happen.
