Yes. I make a motion to approve the consent agenda.
Could we go ahead and rezone them if we pass it? I mean, even though he does not want it on here?
My question is going to be, without looking at pictures here, I'm trying to figure out, so they're the vacant lots is what they are, all three of them?
And they're on Wilson Road, correct? Yes. And there's no other intentions to plan on, if somebody wanted to build commercial there, would they be able to because of the size of the lots?
Because, I mean, if the city brought this forward, I'm saying this is probably the best for the city to have it rezoned to R6, even though it is industrial. I just can't see why this owner is abstaining to it. Because, I mean, then he could go ahead and put a house on there or something. And that's what we're wanting in this area, correct?
Can you bring up the picture of that? Do you have those pictures handy real quick of those two lots?
I'm trying to figure this out here. Where are we at here again? So it's all the blue lots is what we're doing?
I'm thinking, I'm thinking this is 10,000.
Brian, the next house that's on there, what's the address of it? I have to pass the vacant lot. Because Google's coming up with a different address than I'm thinking what you're coming up with.
I mean, they're showing 10,000, I mean, yeah, 10,025. And you're saying that address is 10,021?
Did you verify the address or anything? When you're out there looking, do you guys verify the addresses of the houses? You mean the numbers on the houses? Yes.
Okay. So according to whatever you guys have gotten, the house numbers start with 10,000, 21, 27, and let's see, 21, 23, 25, 29. So I mean... I'd like to make sure we got the right things, because like I say, according to what we're seeing, it's not correct.
My only worry is that I'm hoping that, I mean, the counties are correct because, I mean, Google Maps is all wrong on their addresses. So without us verifying them on homes, I mean, I just hope that that's correct.
Okay. Okay. Maybe, I don't know. It depends what version, I guess. Okay.
You don't have to make a motion. We can just go with the motion.
I make a motion to approve case 25113, correct the rezoning of all addresses excluding the 1, 7, and 19.
Can you go back to your picture with the yellow? So you're saying the yellow is all, the bright yellow, is all R30?
It's two-family. So everything to the east is R30 then?
So basically, almost all them duplexes need to be redone.
OK. That's why I was just checking. Thank you.
Chair. Yes. I make a motion to approve case 26490, short-term rental, 16417 East 28th Street South.
Okay. So this is your first adventure doing this, correct? It is. Okay. So most of the time on here we see who's going to maintain the property when you're out of town. So we need to have somebody that's less than, I think, is it 30 minutes, Rick, or 20 minutes?
One hour, okay. So we've got to have somebody within one hour that can respond to a problem. That doesn't mean that you can do it over the phone or not. That means somebody's got to be there in person. I don't know where you travel to, but I'm sure it's going to be more than an hour away. So we have a problem there right off the bat that I see. The next question is, okay, so you're out traveling. Who's going to come back and clean the place, pick up the trash, make sure the trash is out on trash day when you guys are out of town if you don't have a company already doing that? Do you have…
Okay. So another big question is going to be that you probably do need to talk to neighbors because we get so many complaints about people running short-term rentals, about people coming in and out, and the neighbors don't know anything about them. So I would suggest that you talk to the neighbors. Okay. Okay?
And you have phone number and everything, address on them? That's correct. Okay, thank you.
