“You could not vote. You was not in the meeting. We had to contact you. I was here for the meeting on record. I was in and on camera. This is not even this is not even debatable. I literally was on. Right. It's not debatable.”

“Language right now says I was not at the dais. Does it not? You was absent. You was not in the building. Would you like to change the word from not at the dais to absent from the dais? Is that what you're saying?”

“Absent from the dais is fine, but not your original comment was I was absent from the meeting. You couldn't make a vote because you wasn't via Zoom. That's not correct. I WAS IN THE MEETING. I LEFT THE BUILDING TO RESPOND TO A FAMILY EMERGENCY AND I RETURNED TO THE MEETING. I WAS ABSENT FOR AT THE DIUS. I WILL CERTAINLY ACCEPT. BUT TO SAY THAT I WAS ABSENT FROM THE MEETING IS FAR FROM THE TRUTH.”

“Yes, Mayor Cobble. I would like the city clerk to restate the call of that vote. I believe I heard two nays. Were there two or three nays? Right. Either way, no matter what the motion was, if you will recall the vote, please. In the microphone, please. If you'll say council member district blank vote, council member district blank vote, please.”

“Along with the director probably it's your position also that the staff has no recommendation this time had a recommendation on the 7th because staff believes that it should be in the hands of the Council.”

“that the advisement of legal staff believes that this recommendation should be in the hands of the council. Is it not always in the hands of the council to make the final decision on planning and zoning matters?”

“And have we not always historically listed a staff position when it has always been in the hands of the council? And repeat that question for me and we not always listed a staff recommendation and the staff report both in the planning Commission and at the Council meeting that is thing that is always in the hands of the City Council that's what makes this application different.”

“What would make this application different than any other when it's always in the hands of the City Council to make the final recommendation?”

“And has the staff not made a recommendation when the city initiated rezoning?”
City Council · Jul 27, 2026
- Play at 1:39:48
“But we are sure that the city has initiated zoning, rezonings in the past. We're just not sure today if the staff report had a different recommendation or no recommendation. Correct. I'm going to wait for it.”

“Oh, no, no, that's trying to help. That one was illegal. The July 7th Planning Commission meeting, there was quite the conversation back and forth and what's the staff seeming seem to have a very Arch position on its recommendation of denial and then today. And the staff report has no recommendation and at the advice of legal is going to leave it in the hands of the City Council of which is always in the hands of the City Council and even though we've initiated reasonings in the past and the staff has made recommendations this particular application is slightly different. And the staff. Not…”

“No more questions, I do have a comment. You have the floor. Director Q, I appreciate the work that the city staff has done to vet this rezoning application. Certainly we want our staff to ensure that rezoning applications meet our code of ordinances and certainly in the essence of protecting the city. So I did watch the Planning Commission meeting and do appreciate the work that the staff did. Understanding how the staff came to its recommendation of denial is clear in that meeting. If anyone watched it, it is very clear that the staff does not believe that the application meets our city…”

“The applicant mentioned that the concerns listed in the staff report from the Planning Commission meeting had been satisfied. I believe you referred to the second major issue. I think the first one was something very general to a legality, but the second was concerns relating to the zoning. Can you either affirm or deny that those concerns concerns were met.”

“From the applicant, okay. Even after receiving that in reviewing that staff still obviously took a position of neutrality in this report. Did that have any effect that those items being satisfied have any effect on that neutrality?”

“You stated that the nearest neighborhood was roughly between a thousand and fifteen hundred feet from this site. I get that right? In the city of Stonecrest, yes. And that in our future land use map, it shows that the city would consider those within that 1,500 feet or so to be industrial uses in our future land use and not residential as they are in our current. Is that correct?”

“Okay. Now I do understand that there are neighborhoods on Maddox Road, Maddox Road not being a small road by any stretch. There are neighborhoods on Maddox Road, but you're saying that what is within 1500 feet from this particular site. um is 10 to 12 parcels of which have no usage today at all don't appear to be residential by use and that our future land use doesn't even classify them as that is that correct correct so you know on that western end of maddox road in the vicinity of the site i don't think it's a formal neighborhood i think there's five or six houses on the south side of…”
