Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Border Alman, and guest being here. Thank you. Um, tonight we're here to do a life-saving award. It's for a call that the engine 1C and unit 1C made on September 29th, 2025. I just want to give you a little background on it. Um, you know, when a firefighter takes an oath, uh, when he gets hired, he takes an oath, you know, to save lives and property. And, uh, mostly it's lives. That's what matters. And, uh, I always heard many times, I was just doing my job. You hear it every day. But, uh, there's sometimes when you do your job and it when it all goes right, you know, I think it needs recognition. And that we're going to start to do this in the fire department when we do have these type of calls and these type of saves. It's going to uh it's a it's a great thing for the fire and it's a great thing for the public and it's a great thing for the person they helped. Uh like I said, our number one goal is life safety and that's what we're here for. That's what we're going to do every day, day in day out. Like I said, all these calls are it's not rescuing a person every day out of a house or some saving somebody from a car wreck. It's a lot of calls in and out in between there. There's nothing that's spectacular that this call was. And um but the you know a lot of uh hard calls what this was uh they go negative a lot of time. It turns into a bad thing. But uh luckily engine one and unit one were right across the street

and and all everything lined up perfect and a life was saved. So, we're going I'm going to read the little story what happened and um give you idea what it was. [snorts] On September 29th, 2025, at approximately 8:38 a.m., members of engine 1C and unit 1C responded to an emergency call at city hall involving an unresponsive individual. Upon arrival, responders encountered adult city employee in medical distress. Personnel immediately assessed the situation and initiated emergency care. Shortly thereafter, the patient experienced respiratory failure and cardiac arrest. Firefighters [snorts] and paramedics from Engine 1C and Unit 1C promptly initiated advanced life-saving measures, including CPR, coordinated chest compressions, and administration of emergency medications. Their swift and decisive actions resulted in the restoration of cardiac activity, and the patient was transported to Methus Hospital Branch. During transport, the patient suffered a second cardiac arrest. Once again, responders acted without hesitation, success, successfully restoring the patient's heartbeat prior to arrival at the hospital. Professionalism, teamwork, and clinical skill demonstrated by the personnel of engine 1C and unit 1C were instrumental in sustaining life during a critical medical emergency. Their actions reflect the highest standards of public service and exemplify the dedication and commitment to the olive branch fire EMS EMS department. As chief, I'm very proud to award the following members of engine 1C and unit 1C the life-saving medal from the olive branch fire department. [snorts] Lieutenant Jeff Hawks.

Driver, paramedic Patrick the priest. firefighter EMT Will Pressler. firefighter MT Jaden [snorts]

Paramedic Payton Elkins. Paramedic Paul Kleta, who has since been promoted to EMS captain one. Again, thank y'all for your performance in your line of duty. I congratulate you and thank y'all for being here tonight. [applause]

[applause]

Thank you, Chief, and thank you, heroes. If you're a family member of one of these team members or a co-orker, uh, please stand so we can recognize you today tonight for being with us. Family members and co-workers, thank y'all very much for being here as well. [applause] This this team always goes above and beyond. And uh if it wasn't enough for the heroics of the life saving that took place uh while the person was recovering, uh some of these gentlemen and other people in the fire department, other team members built a handicap accessible ramp for the person's house so that they could get in and out of the home once they got out of the rehabilitation after the hospital visit. So, uh it's amazing what y'all do and thank you very much for what you do. Lord, you have the consent agenda items 1 through 26. Items 1 through 26. Any questions, comments, or discussions?

I'll make a motion to approve. Mr. Earhart, motion to approve. Is there a second? Second, Miss Hamilton. Any more discussion? All in favor?

All opposed? Motion carries. Following the agenda of the planning commission old business, this a public hearing for consideration of application to amend the project text for the oaks at Park View Heights Planned Unit development submitted by David Baker Fish and Arnold Incorporated on behalf of property owner Trey Hart of Mainland MCA Olive Branch LLC. The request is to change the permitted uses from memory care and assisted living facility to detached single family residential in area 3B and to approve the associated preliminary development plat. The subject property is zone PUD plan unit development. The 6.99 plus to minus acre area 3B is located on the west side of Park View Boulevard and south of Goodman Road known as 6755 and 6785 Park View Boulevard. This was set for a public hearing date for tonight. It was set on December the 16th, 2025. Staff report, please. Mayor Adaman, before you is your request to consider an amendment to the project tax and associated preliminary development plan for the oaks at Park View. This is a 6.99 acres piece of property uh along Park View Boulevard. This is highway 302. You have the city park to the south and to the west of the subject property. You have Mor Cove dead ends at this location. A lot of these piece of property board area A 3A has been fully developed with condominium most of them two units and you have other single family detach single family residential development across the street the subject property under

consideration it's only area 3B so not the entire PUB only area 3B of this subdivision The applicant proposes in the preliminary development plan to construct these nine single family residential homes which will be detached. It will be a gated community. It will be fenced. This prototype of the gate they intend to put up. It will be fenced. Uh the streets would be private as such. They will be owned and maintained by the homeowners association. Access to the lot will be through the alleys at the back. So the lots will all be rear loaded. The applicant proposes one recreational area with an arbor at the center of the subdivision. This gives you a general historical background of the 28 dwellings where we are. Um, as I did indicate, the request is to amend the Park View Heights PUB to change the permitted use from memory care, which was approved in this area 3B, an assisted living facility to detach single family residential lots for a total of 28 dwellings. As such, the proposed density will be 4.0 dwelling units per acre. That is characteristic of suburban residential development. uh which most of our single family residential neighborhoods in the city fall within. So this is area 3 B. This is area 3A that currently has the condominiums. Area 2 is directly across the street. It has residential detach single family residential homes. So give you a background of this particular

subdivision. The Park View Heights PD was originally approved in 2007. Area 3 was designated for condominium uses. It has since then been divided into 3A and 3B. In December of 2018, the permitted uses in area 3B were amended uh from residential single family residential to memory care and assisted living facility. The current proposal is basically to revert it to single family residential development. the existing utilities in this particular area 3B. It has road, it has water lines, sewer lines, all of that are going to be demolished in order for this new plan to take effect. There are existing utilities on the site which must be removed or relocated. Surrounding zoning districts are plan development R3 for the condominium, C3 to the east uh to the west and arrow two. Surrounding land uses are also detached single family and conominium town houses is a funeral along that particular street. These are prototypes of homes that are proposed. The ones that are actually designed by the applicant tonight are these two one and and and this and this one this is more of an online image. So these are twostory homes to look at them. The proposed development standards this as I did indicate single family residents will be accessed 18 ft wide rear alleys uh private alleys the homeowners association will own and maintain the roads the alleys any buffers and common open spaces the intent of the developer is to limit ownership to two units in the covenants and restrictions so that is a private uh developer's proposal that he's going to include in the CCRs and I think the purpose of That may be to limit rental just having one company coming and

buying everything to try to enforce home ownership. The B regulations the lots would be maximum 4,000 square minimum 4,000 ft² lots. Now this may sound like islander uh 4,000 square ft but a big significant difference between these ander is these are rear loaded. They have alleys they are not front u this with twotory homes. Alander is generally one story and here you have curb you have ga you have sidewalks these are private streets it's a gated community is not gated so although the lots are smaller similar in size this is a very unique community being proposed in a traditional neighborhood style almost very similar to windstone in the in the design both for the homes and proximity to the street very similar to windstone There will be no access to Park View Oak Circle, basically to the street. Access will only be to Pav Boulevard where it will be gated. The property will be heavily landscaped along its perimeters and also each of the lots within the subdivision will have trees planted in its frontage. In terms of change in the character of the area, this as I did indicate this property was initially approved for memory care. It has the proposal before you is to move to single family detach. As such, we have to take the reasoning criteria into consideration. In 2006, that's over 20 years ago, this whole area was essentially agricultural. You had commercial developments within its perimeter along Highway 305 and also Old Gurman Road. But this area in itself

essentially on developed agricultural land in 2022. Sorry about this. This is not 2005. This is 2025. Uh that has changed significantly to residential single family residential. These are condominiums but being two units. They're also single family residential homes. The idea of condominium is just about the ownership. So all of that has basically in the interior changed from agricultural land to single family residential area still surrounded by low intensity commercial uses. The proposal aligns with this particular change from agricultural to single family residential land use. In terms of public need, the future land use policies. The future land use map designates this particular piece of property as neighborhood commercial although it is currently approved for memory care facility. The comprehensive plan policy 1.1.3 however states that new residential growth will be primarily comprised of single family homes. Although the future land use plan recognizes the need for the diversification of the city's housing stock and within the neighborhood commercial areas, it is recognized that residential uses within its its vicinity may be extended into those areas that are designated as neighborhood commercial as the city grows. The planning commission reviewed this application at its meeting on December 9 and unanimously recommended approval of both the project text change and the preliminary development plan subject to these conditions one through eight. Condition number nine is added to nine. Condition number three being all storm water improvements must be approved by the city engineer and MDQ that is the state. The developer shall extend and construct

sidewalks along Park View Boulevard and Park View Oaks Circle. Any the picture for the houses that are included in here right up to this point, the developer has only worked on about two of those prototypes. So there is still work going in terms of the design and what we did in this condition number eight basically use the precedence of that the board approved with respect to the gas station we have out there on Goodman Road and Alexander road where the board permitted that the design and the site plan can be subsequently approved by the planning commission. So the recommendation here is that any other architectural housing elevations other than those provided in this project text shall be approve reviewed and approved by the planning commission. In doing so, the planning commission shall ensure that the proposed houses are similar to those included in the text regarding the building elevations, materials, number of stories which should be two as stated in the project text. The size of homes, the minimum size included in the project text for the heated area is 1,800 square ft. uh roof pitches eterc. The ninth condition added here has to do with the alleys. V-shaped design of alleys are prohibited. This is intended to address to avoid the situation we have in stone crest subdivision where because the alleys were designed V-shaped the water accumulates in the middle and just erodess and destroys those alley and becomes a significant liability for the HOA long term. So we had the same condition for the alleys out there in villages at south branch and it has been designed so that the water is not settle in the middle of the alley and that is working appropriately. That concludes staff's presentation. Thank you.

Thank you Dr. Song and the board's aware of this but this when it was uh made or zoned for uh elder care and memory care it's been seven or eight years and it's not that the city don't want that. We'd love to have that there, but the builder or the person the developer changed their mind and didn't go forward and nobody else has picked it up. They don't have a desire to build a memory care and elder care facility. So, this is where we're at today and Song did a good job covering this. So, since it's private gate, uh, HOA is responsible for the construction and maintenance of their own streets. The city will not be responsible for those. And also you might have covered but no single entity can own any more than two of these 28 town houses. So they can't be gobbled up by a group or an organization. Only two max could be owned by one one individual or one entity. Does the applicant have anything else to add? Mr. Baker.

Good evening. I'm David Baker with Fiser Arnold. My address for the record is 9180 Crest Hills Drive, Memphis. With me here tonight is Mr. Trey Hart with Mainland Capital, the owner of the properties. Uh, one thing would like to point out is that when this was originally approved in 2007, this was going to be forplex condos, very similar to what was part of the Oaks at Park View. Uh, as mentioned, uh, it was sold off for a memory care and did not come to fruition. And so we have worked tirelessly with the HOA and neighbors at the Oaks at Park View uh with several plan iterations, different architectural styles, issues on drainage, security, screening, fencing, and things like that and had gotten their support through all this. So we agree with the conditions set forth by the planning commission and staff and be glad to answer any questions. David, is there a fence behind behind around this whole property or not?

Yes, sir. Okay. Wood fence matched to other ones, I guess. Uh between us and the oaks at Park View, uh is going to be a a masonry column with a ephus stuck. That was one of their encompass the whole whole project. Yes, sir. Okay. Thank you, D.

Yes, sir. I know the mayor reiterated the private streets run their life around 15 years especially the residential we have have happen a lot though is about 15 20 years due to the cost of asphalt the street can cost a half million dollars just a small street if it needs an overload understood though 15 I probably we may not be here anyway but 15 years from now to come back to the city and expect them to take over by then would be probably $2 to3 million project for streets but it have to be maintained and it wouldn't be the city will not maintain it. We we are well aware of that and understand that we are in the process should we get approval of this setting up a HOA that is responsible for all the landscaping utilities drainage uh roads and so forth and all those will be monthly dues taken out uh and yes yes sir we are understanding of that and agree to that. Yes sir. Alderman Wallace, I would mention something. We will be looking at streets. Um they will be private alleyways. We'll be inspecting those as well, and we're going to we're going to look at um the pavement structure and so forth. People move into it. They don't know exactly what's underneath that asphalt. So, I think the history and some of the things that we've seen in the past kind of lead us to uh to make sure that we're having a similar pavement structure like you would on a public street. when that's turned over to the homeowners association, they know that they're getting the same thing that you would on a on a public street as well. So, Mr. Swims, will that be indicative of the alleyways as well? Because, you know, in the past we've done a inch and a half layer during construction and then contractor leaves and the homeowners typically are stuck with a less than street. Are we building the

alleyways out to public street specs as well? That is that is our intent. So, okay, the the the V-shaped um design that that he mentioned was something that we've seen some problems with. In theory, it should work, but when you have some flat areas and uh it does end up causing problems over time. So, um that's being taken uh in that's being taken in consideration so that we're making sure that the drainage is getting off the streets. we've got uh an area that's designed to carry the water away from them and that they have a similar structure to the that we're seeing for public street includes the alleyways. Yes, sir. Okay. Thank you.

Any additional questions for the applicant? Thank you, Mr. Baker. Thank you. This is a public hearing item. If you are here tonight to speak as a proponent, you're for this subdivision, you're for this design, this application, come forward, please. If you're here to speak in opposition of this application, you're opposed to it, come forward. Seeing no one coming forward, public comments are hereby closed. board. Any other questions of staff or the applicant?

Questions, comments, or motions? I make a motion to approve. Mr. Wallace, motion to approve. Is there a second? I'll second Mr. Collins. Second. Any discussion? All in favor? All opposed? Motion carries. Thank you.

Thank you. Item two, public hearing for consideration of application to amend the project text for Robinson Crossing planned urban development and preliminary development plan for area 9 submitted by Shane King, Houston Engineering on behalf of property owners Barry Bridgeforth and Pleasant Hill Land and Development Company. The request includes development stipulations for a permitted convenience store with fuel pumps and car wash as a standalone use. The 5.72 plus or minus acre sub subject area 9 is zone PUD plan unit development is located at the southeast corner of Church Road in Malone Road. A public hearing date was set for this hearing tonight. It was set on December the 16th, 2025. Staff report please. Mayor Adman, before you is a request to consider amendment and a preliminary development plan for this area 9 of Robinson Crossing plant unit development. Last year you did approved a you did approve a subdivision plot that created these uh two lots in this subdivision. This is the PUB current zoning of the property as I did indicate is plant unit development. You have residential the residential area of Robinson Crossing is to the south to the east. This is still PUD. Um and this particular area is also was zoned or designated for senior living facility. The city limit is right here on Malon Road and this is Church Road to give you a general idea of where we are in the city. The outline plan for this particular area 9, this only concerns area 9 of this subdivision, included two access points onto Church Road and one access point on Malone Road

for this 5.72 acres area 9 of the property. The uses permitted uses in the subdivision for area 9. Currently in the project text, there are two uses stated there in the project text. Permitted uses, convenience store and car wash as an accessory to convenience store. So there are two important uses that are the subject of this application tonight. You have convenience store and a car wash as an accessory to the convenience store. At the end of last year, the board of adan did approve a number of changes to plant unit developments that permitted convenience stores in the city. Basically making all those uses conditional uses subject to them being at signalized intersections. only one or only two if you have a four-way stop and all that. Those regulations were adopted last year. As part of that project, that amendment, the board included this particular subdivision requiring a conditional use permit. Other conditions that were also included for vesting provisions, you had a project shall be on a lot that has received preliminary PL approval by June 30th, 2025 and final plat approval and recordation by September 30th, 2025. The applicant meets these vesting provisions. The lot has been the property has been platted. So the property is currently vested for convenience store with four pumps. Basically, the application before the board tonight is for a car wash to no longer be an accessory use to the convenience store.

That's the first thing. The car wash should be allowed to stand alone on the separate lot. In the city of Olive Branch to be an accessory use, it has to be on the same lot as a principal structure. That is the key thing that makes it accessory. It has to be on the same lot. So the application before you tonight is to separate those two uses. Let the car wash stand on separate lot from the convenience store with fuel pumps. So that is a key thing. A number of changes are proposed. I don't really want to go through all these. These are basically the stipulations as far as the convenience store with fuel pumps are concerned that are proposed before the board for approval. First, the city of Holy Branch shall not issue a building permit for the construction of the convenience store with four palms prior to January 20th, 2036 and traffic light signalization of the Malone Road and Church Road intersection. That is basically 10 years from today. So the convenience store with four palms cannot be constructed 10 years from today and not all that intersection must be signalized. So let's say is January 20th 2036 but the Malone road church road intersection is not signalized that gas station cannot be built. So those two conditions must be met before you can have a gas station at that intersection. If that intersection is only signalized in 2050 then a gas station can only be built in 2050. Basically that's what that condition number one refers to. And these are conditions that have been included in the project text by the developer or the property owner. Two, limited to four palms or eight fueling stations. This is actually more restrictive than what we currently have in the zoning ordinance. In our zoning

ordinance, properties of this nature in uh neighborhood commercial areas are permitted up to six. So the property owner is proposing to be more restrictive. The fo canopy shall have a maximum clearance of 15.5 ft. This is the same as what we have basically the same as what we have in our zoning ordinance. The side is permitted one freestanding sign only which shall be monument style not more than 8 ft high and located within 40 ft from the driveway of the convenience store with four palms on church road. Currently most of the gas stations in our zoning ordinance they allowed to the sign is allowed to go up to 12 ft. So they are being more restrictive. At least one electrical vehicle charging station shall be provided. The preliminary layout plan for the convenience store with four pumps and adjoining car wash provided year at exhibit Q shall be binding. That refers to this particular layout plan for both the convenience store with four pumps and the car wash. This layout is binding. The applicant had a design in which the car wash was parallel to church road. We did a number of measurements of how far that would be from the residential area in terms of noise facts and it was determined that this particular design will protect the neighborhood better. The F palms canopy design included yearining as exhibit arrow shall also be binding except however that the columns may be constructed completely of brick material. Roofing material for canopy may be shingle or dark colored metal material that is in reference to this particular canopy. The convenience store itself was initially proposed. It look more like most of the other convenience stores we

have in the city. The developer changed it to make this particular store design also binding. The purpose being this looks more like the residential homes you have in Robinson Crossing. Architecturally the convenience store with four palms shall be constructed of a minimum 80% brick. The applicant is actually proposing in the preliminary development plan and the picture I just showed to be 100% brick on all sides and shall have pitch roof of shingles or dark colored metal material just as I just showed in that exhibit S. A conditional use permit is not required. This is very important. The conditional use permit is not required for the convenience store with four pumps which is hereby permitted in area 9 only on the corner lot at the intersection of Malon road and church road. This lot may be used for any other permitted use in area 9 subject to administrative review and approval of construction plans by city staff. What this means is tomorrow let's say the bank shows up the financial institutions are also permitted in that area 9. The area 9 therefore instead of having a convenience store with four palms there it may end up being a bank that is permitted on that particular area 9 and the site plan let's say if you were a bank that site plan will be approved administratively by staff the reason for which a conditional use permit would not be required in this particular case is the BCA would basically be doing the same thing that the board of adaman is doing tonight basically be reviewing it under the same conditions reviewing the preliminary layout, doing the same thing and if the BCA were to deny it, it will be appealed to the board of adamant. So the board will be doing the same thing it is doing tonight. For that reason, going back to the BCA for the conditional use permit is not necessary. This is the layout. This is the

landscape plan being proposed. this area. This is intended for storm water detention, regional storm water detention on all the lots that are proposed in the subdivision at the rear of the property. The project text for Robinson crossing specially specific to this area 9 calls for a 6 ft high wooden fence with brick columns every 50 ft. That is what is proposed in this particular um buffer area. At the rear of the property you have those ever greens stagot. So I did indicate this will be the design of the building and the canopy. This is the building elevation. It's all brick. This is the design of the car wash. It's also all brick. This is the 3D view of the car wash. The applicant intends to have the the vacuum area will not be covered. That was an issue that the planning commission discussed at its meeting on December 9 and unan unanimously recommended approval of this amendment subject to this condition number one. Namely, that should the vacuum the vehicle vacuum area be covered in future, the applicant may change his mind, the covering shall be of the same material as that used for the awnings in the principal structure of the car wash. Basically, this same material. This was intended to avoid the kind of yellow very blue uh design that you have oldtown car wash and have something that blends more with the residential area. That concludes staff's presentation. Thank you.

Thank you, Dr. Song. Board, any questions regarding the staff report? Mayor Dr. Song, you go back to condition real quick. As I understand that essentially the developer is getting a 10ear window to keep this lot reserved for convenience store traffic signalization. So traffic signal happens in two years and they're going to proceed fine. It doesn't happen for 10 years and they got to come back and reapply. If in two years the intersection is signalized, if in two years the intersection is signalized, they cannot have a gas station there. They have to wait till January 20th, 2036. That's 10 years.

So they still have to wait. They still have to wait. Those two conditions must be met before they can have a convenience store of pumps out there. So it's an and not all. And of course if they want to sell that property prior to that time obviously they can. Yes sir.

Mayor may I ask please question. Can you go into more detail on the buffering in the south side of this development?

Yes, ma'am. The project text for Robinson Crossing PUB currently calls for 6 foot high wooden fence separating the commercial and the residential area. And that 6ft high wooden fence has to have brick columns every 50 ft. And that is what the applicant has included or shown in this preliminary layout plan. So this line with see those rectangular boxes those rectangular uh shapes right here those are brick columns that he has included. So this has been designed to meet the current stipulations of the Robinson crossing project tax. Of course, by applying for an amendment to this project X that opens this up for the board to to have a discussion and uh if the board wanted to strengthen that, the board could do so is where the board would be well within its power. It also calls for the planting of evergreens stagard inside the subdivision as provided along the property line. So you have in the south property line and along the eastern property line of the subdivision. So that is what the applicant has proposed. So the plan is for this to be a wood sixoot wood fence with columns.

Yes, ma'am. Currently proposed. Dr. Song. So the car wash will be all brick and the columns will be brick, but it be a wooden fence in between the columns. The brick for the buffer.

Yes, sir. As currently designed, the car wash will all be brick, but at the rail of the property, you will have a wooden fence with brick columns. Let me ask you, can could we not change that to hardy plank or something like that rather than wood? Uh, I don't know what kind of f what kind of fence do we have between Margarite Manor in the commercial?

Between Margaret Manor and the commercial is a wooden fence. But there is a trend or should I call it there is something that the BCA started doing which I think is is recently working in the city. This is a sim echosone fence design. The same that you have behind Hobby Lobby and the residential developments. The BCA started requiring these wherever you have a gas station requiring that sim echo stone fence. This is at Fox Creek. I just took this picture today. So the new gas station you have out there at Fox Creek, instead of a wooden fence, they propose what you have out there is a sim echo stone fence. This is more aesthetically pleasing. It's more longlasting. It's not as expensive as building a brick wall, but at the same time, it is more valuable than and more long-lasting than a wooden fence. So that is kind of a middle ground option that a board of adamant may want to consider if you were inclined to moving away from the wooden fence option and having something that is doable that is an option.

Okay. Let me ask you something about this fence. All right. Alman Earhart asked about the gas gas convenience store when it could be built and all of that. Wonder if they wanted to build a car wash next week or next year. Is the fence When's the fence going to be installed? Is it going to be installed or required on both lots or just what is it going to be installed all the way across? The st the fence is going to be required on both lots. So if you look at the site plan,

okay, the fence is required across the entire southern property. Okay, it would be that would be installed or built before any permits issued or or before it's the issued occupancy or could operate. Yes sir. Usually that the fence is constructed when the building is also being built. Same contractor building the putting up the building also puts up the fence because they need to grade the area. So the fence will be up before a certificate of occupancy is issued for any business on that piece of property in that area 9. Okay.

All right. Dr. I had one question too. Maybe I missed it. Was there not a access road designed behind both of these lots as well? Yes, you have this is okay. Is that is that the access road right behind the buildings?

Yes, it is basically a cross access easement from one of each of the lots being used by all all the lots onto Malon Road. That cross access easement was included in the in the subdivision plat was permitted in the project text when this was approved in the county. It was included in the subdivision plot that was approved by the board last year and as such it has been shown here on the preliminary development plan. Okay. Yes sir. when when we separated them the lots it was due to the the constraints of the lots themselves to be a part of it so we had to separate them to make room for this

if it because of the way it was laid out right yes sir ain't got a picture as Yes sir all is is this all the commercial that's zoned there or does the commercial go back to the east farther this area 9 is zoned commercial for these uses to the east that is zone for senior living. So it is residential. All right. That's all residential. Yes sir. This area to the east. Thank you. I I couldn't remember. All right.

So this is the area to the area 8A to the east over 22 acres that is zone for senior living. I I didn't know what area a A is that, but that's that's residential. Yes, sir. That is residential senior living. Looks like Okay. It just had been platted. It has not been platted, sir. Okay. All right. Thank you,

Dr. Song with the a complete all brick wall instead of wood. Stop some of the noise as a buffer. The brick instead of the wood. Generally a brick wall is more effective than wood just because of its thickness when it comes to noise. So yes, a brick wall will be more more effective. But also it depends on on on cuz if it's all six foot and you have the waves going above the six foot and really has little or no impact in terms of a difference in noise. Would the wall that you showed us earlier do the same thing? That's what I was going to ask. Yeah. Yeah. You know I don't know what your that wall right there,

Echo Stone. It would it would um behind Hobby Lobby, those residential developments behind there, we've not had any complaints. The gas station on Fox Creek where I took this picture is now operational. We've not had any complaints from the those residents in that particular area. So that's a eco stone wall behind Yeah. Hobby Lobby, you say? Yes. Yes, sir. Okay. The longevity on the echo is longer, right? It's it's far longer than you have. What about the shear strength from wind? Is it as strong as wood or

It's very very stable. These these columns, they drew them right deep into the ground. It's it's it's very very stable. Okay. I'm [snorts] assuming they have a property association that would maintain this fence then. Yes, sir. Okay. That that that would be required. 8 HBO Freight the new Herbo Freight is actually using the same SIM techch echo stone fence in the loading area at the back 8 ft high we require them to do that to screen that loading area so that is being used in the city

okay one more question I'm good with the fence going all the way to Malone road is it necessary for that road to go from the car wash to Malone at this point I will leave that to the city engineer since this is a transportation issue. Church,

y'all y'all see on this uh I guess the display um that it's showing two different connections right on onto Church Road. Um I think we have um a shoulder um and just looking at how we've seen historically some of the car washes work. Um I don't know necessarily that that connection to Malone Road would be necessary with just the car wash and how that they work. So we have not pushed that as a as a requirement. So uh not making that connection, just having the connections on Church Road seems to have worked where we've had just a single entrance coming in and out of the car wash. They're kind of staggered. Uh it's not it's not just a hight traffic um um area and um typically with with what we're seeing on Church Road, I think it would work. Okay.

But I would like to see the fence go all the way where it we don't come back in 10 years and then have to put up a different type. You know, the fence needs to match all the way to Malong Road, but the road doesn't have to.

And Mr. swims going back to the the road even though there's not a light signal a signalization light at Malone and Church yet. Would you still I'm not an engineer and I don't do the traffic but it would seem to be with people trying to enter in and out of the subdivision and you've got all that traffic what 30 yards at the max down the street from the uh car wash. I personally think having that road connect to Malone in the back would be a benefit and I that's just my perception on it. I'd like you to consider that. I mean, I know it's still your call, but

we did Alderman Earhart, we spoke about that with staff meeting earlier, and it does have pros and cons, you know, to where there'd be a second way in and out. But as the residents are going in and out now, they're going to be seeing cars that are coming out of that car wash, dripping wet, maybe somebody stopping to clean their windshield or the window, something that's going to be in their way as they're leaving their neighborhood when they're simply just trying to get on to Church Road. So that's just the other other side of the coin. Yeah. Yeah. You will eventually have a light there along the and that would make it more safe, I guess, for everybody going out there.

I mean, in my opinion, it is, you know, the board's call. I can see the concern that that you might have, but I do think that uh you look at the overall where the traffic is going to be coming from. I think that it's probably limited on how much is actually coming from Robinson Crossing. They do have a uh a section, I guess, where they're going would be pulling out onto Church Road and then coming back in. So, you know, that's something that y'all may want to be um at least evaluate, but uh I don't think it's a significant amount of cars from Robinson Crossing as compared to what is the overall um most of the most of the traffic I think is going to be coming directly from Church Road without actually trying to exit onto off of Malone and back into the car wash. the car wash in town, the Oldtown car wash, it's packed every day. I don't see a big hindrance from the traffic from it though. And it's packed every day.

Yeah. So, it doesn't really impede a lot of traffic. Yes, sir. We've got um don't know the name of the one that's on Goodman Road, but it's it's similar. Of course, there's several on Goodman Road um that operate the same way with a with basically a single entrance. And uh I don't I don't think that there are big traffic issues that come from that single entrance that I've seen today. You have some stop vac. So even though it's packed, it's just staggered. Mayor Adams, if it's appropriate at this time, I'd be willing to tender a motion. I don't know.

Okay. Um I have no problem with it as is. I would one moment Mr. This still a public hearing. Okay. Okay. But but on that on that cross to uh to Malone, you know, once that section line street goes all the way to College Road with a traffic signal. Then at that point, Mr. swims. Would you agree that exit access and egress on the long road will be needed for that car wash at that time whether it's 36 or 46 or whenever it happens?

Well, I mean it when you get a signal and then I think that the other aspect of it was a convenience store being located there. So, both of those combined is going to put more traffic on it. And uh you're if you go back and look at the amount of traffic that's generated by convenience stores, it's uh I think substantial. I think you support me that that's that's going to be a more substantial um draw for traffic both by pass by traffic and um that that would probably make that a safer option. Yes. Okay. Any other questions board before the public comments are allowed?

Does applicant have anything to add to this that hasn't been covered?

Thank you. Thank you. I'm Byron Houston, Houston Engineering, PO Box 387, Oxford, Mississippi 38655. And um I I did want to let the board know that to get to this point, there's been a lot of collaboration between the owner and u the the residents of uh Robinson Crossing. At first, this thing started out as a as a convenience store with the with the car wash being on one single lot and uh a lot of, you know, people didn't want the car the um the uh convenience store and so there's been several meetings and so they pushed this thing for, you know, 10 years. So maybe maybe it'll sell for something else, you know, maybe it'll be a little strip center or or some kind of maybe a hardware store, some kind of something, you know, before that comes and uh there may be another enough other convenience stores in the area where, you know, that u deters, you know, even building one 10 years from now. So, uh, we would ask that the board approve, um, the amendment to the text and, um, appreciate it.

Sir, I got a question if you mind, sir. Okay.

If, uh, the board was inclined to approve the amendment change, would you consider doing a brick wall all the way across the wood? And, that would be uh, the owners owner is here. uh Barry Bridge 4th, 5293 Gateway Road. Um my father and I are the developers right now. What we have planned is we have a a fence that's approved in Robinson Crossing that has well I guess we started in 2005. It's held up really well. It's not a normal brick wooden fence. There's 6x6 post. There's caps. There's rails. They're uh I believe most of it the fence is actually cedar and they've they've stood the test of time a lot lot better than I actually expected them to. But basically what we've proposed is to continue doing Robinson Crossing the way we have done since 2005 with the same fence structures, the same brick for the entrances, the well, we've accommodated some requests from the homeowners and from staff about changing the architecture. The same architect that have that has approved the 353 house plans in Robinson Crossing is also the architect for our building. So, we're trying to keep things the way we've done Robinson Crossing throughout. And the brick fence that we have is what's already been built in Robinson Crossing or excuse me, the wood fence. It's got brick columns and then it's got a uh cap on the top and 6x6 post that support it. And it's a it's a it's a good fence and it's it stood the test of time. Well, I want I wasn't really talking about the longevity of the fence. I'm thinking more about the buffer, the noise,

you know, something that hadn't been there. A car wash is going to produce a lot of noise. People playing music. So, that's what I'm thinking about when I said brick fence for the buffering. Yes, sir. In an effort to address that, we have totally flipped the car wash

and working with our consultant. The noise is basically on the exit end of the car wash. The exit end on the car wash has now been moved up closer to Church Road. We flipped the building and rather than this being like the old car washes that have a separate vacuum, this is a central vacuum unit. And we've also, [cough] pardon me, we've also moved that unit up closer to Church Road and enclosed it in an effort to minimize any any noise effect on the on the residents. Also, we're we've we've moved the car wash up further toward Church Road. There's a substantial difference between that. That's the reason you'll see that the [clears throat and cough] detention area is closer to the neighborhood and we moved all the buildings up closer to Church Road and we don't think that noise is going to be a factor at all. There's more there's more traffic noise there now than than the car wash will make.

One other thing about the noise too, the types of plants selected for the landscaping plan tend to buffer that noise, absorb that noise, especially as they get more mature. Additional questions of the applicant. Additional questions for the applicant.

Thank you. Thank you, gentlemen. If you're here on behalf of this, you're a proponent, you're in favor of this application, please come forward for public comments. If you're here in opposition, you're opposed to this application or something concerns you about this application, please come forward for public comments. Hearing and seeing none, public comments is closed. Any additional questions, board, or clarifications, Mayor, I'll go ahead and make my motion. I um I like the design of it. I like the separation. I do think though I would like the echo stone fence. I think brick obviously would be the best, but I know that's an additional cost, but I'll make the motion with the addition of the echo stone fence rather than wood. Okay. Board's motion for approval with the as is except with the addition of echo stone fence. Is there a second? Second, Miss Aldridge. Any additional discussion? All in favor?

I. All opposed. Did you get that? No.

One opposition. 61. It does pass. Thank you applicant for presenting. Next item, please. Public hearing for consideration of application for a zoning map amendment submitted by Bob Farley Farley Survey and on behalf of Vish Prasad Vance Realy LLC property owner. The request is to reszone 2.6 plus or minus acres from M2 heavy industrial district to C2 highway commercial district. The subject property is at the northeast corner of Hackscross Road and Airport Road known as 8274 Hackscross Road. Public hearing date was set for this hearing that's taking place tonight. That hearing date was set on December the 16th, 2025. Staff report, please. Okay, Mayor Adam, before you is a request to consider reszoning of a piece of property. This is 2.06 acres piece of property at the intersection basically the northeast intersection of Hack Cross Road and Airport Road. The property is currently zone M2 heavy industrial district and the applicant is requesting that it be downzoned to C2 highway commercial district. The property currently has a building on it. This is to be a bank. Uh it has been vacant for a number of years now. I think about two to four years. The property has stood there vacant. The applicant intends if this is reszoned to use the building for as a medical office. Basically, the surrounding zoning is M2, principally M2, but further to the south, you've got a C3 C3 general commercial district and a C2 uh highway commercial district within 500 ft of the subject property. In analyzing this in terms of changes to

the character of the area in 1996 comparing the 1996 to 2025 images this area in 1996 was generally agricultural and industrial. You had one spot where you had commercial. In 2025 the number of commercial areas has increased. You have an additional area here. This has remained commercial. This has also gone commercial. So within about a thousand ft of this subject property, there have been a number of res lots that have been reszoned for commercial developments. In terms of the public need, the property is currently designated for industrial distribution just being close to the airport and also in an area that has other industrial warehouses. However, it is remarkable that across the street on airport road, you have a commercial corridor designation of that property. Generally, the the comp plan, it is recognized that you can have a kind of a speed over and expansion of this commercially designated areas across the street. The planning commission did find that business uses along hacks crossroad could provide additional convenient commercial uses to the general public driving along the corridor and to workers in nearby industrial land uses. This is not a PD. I should point this out. This is not for a PD. The C2 zoning district is just straight conventional zoning district. Which means if this is resone to C2, it may end up not being a medical office. Somebody can go out there and put a Dollar General, some some other use that is permitted in the C2 zoning district. Maybe a restaurant that can go on that particular site. The planning commission reviewed this

application and its meeting on December 9 and unanimously recommended approval from reasonzoning from M2 heavy industrial to C2 highway commercial district. That concludes staff's presentation. Thank you.

Thank you, sir. board. Any questions on this staff report? Does the applicant have anything else to add that has not been covered? Again, this is a public hearing. If you're here on behalf of you're in favor of this application, come forward. If you're here in opposition, you're opposed to this application, come forward. Seeing and hearing none, public comments is hereby closed. Any additional questions, comments, or motions from the board?

Let me ask one quick question. Yes. Most banks in the city are in the C2 highway commercial zoning industry. It's kind of a bank industrial Yeah, that was that was a bit strange. It's not it's not common in the city to have banks in the in the industrial district. Most of them are in the commercial C2, C3, C1 or in the C4 plan commercial districts.

The bank was permitted there as a conditional use in the M2 district. Okay. All right. Thank you, Mr. Wallace. Any additional questions, comments, or motions? If there is no questions, I'll make a motion to approve based on the fact that the character of the area has changed. Thank you. I'll second. Motion by Dickerson, second by Wallace. Any discussion? All in favor?

All opposed? Motion carries unanimously. Planning Commission, new business. This is consideration of an application for a final plat for prashad rheumatology subdivision submitted by Bob Farley Farley survey and on behalf of Vish Prasad Vance Realy LLC the property owner. The request is to subdivide 2.06 plus or minus acres into a single lot. The subject properties at the northeast corner of Hackscross Road and Airport Road known as 8274 Hackscross Road i.e. the continuation of the last item. So this is basically platting the lot that or the paro that you just approved the reasoning from M2 to C2. Utilities are available. There's a water line, seaw wall line, gas line in yellow. They're available on that side. It's already developed. Ingress eress is not proposed to change basically everything as it is. Um, basically all the applicant is just doing is platting this. Before they can get a building permit to make any improvements, interior building, any improvements on that property, they need to have this platted. The planning commission reviewed this at his meeting on December 9. Recommended approval within the vicinity of this particular piece of property both on Hacks Crossroad and on Airport Road. There are no sidewalks. So, the planning commission did recommend a waiver out of the sidewalks requirement. That concludes Top's presentation. Thank you.

Thank you. Questions. I did have one. If if you show that map again, the way that lots designed, you've got a parking lot owned by Snap-On Tools, I believe, that goes into that lot. Is that going to cause any issues? Has that been worked out with the property owners or That is um really a private issue between the two property owner. They'll have to work that out. Okay. It's a unique good observation diesel truck there. They can do this. Good observation of the rheumatoid medical facility may just keep those cars. That's right. Great observation.

I guess there's no sidewalks along Airport Road. Yes, sir. In this in this particular area, there are no sidewalks. Okay. A good place to start. Mr. Swims, any thoughts on whether or not that should have sidewalks on this side on Airport Road side to begin sidewalks down that area?

I we just have to take a look. As far as I know, it doesn't go down Airport Road. So, um, what that's generally the way we we make decisions about sidewalk needs is is along the road is if there's segments where this would help and connect, I guess, other sidewalk sidewalk segments. I don't think we have that in this area. No sidewalks at all on Airport Road.

I don't think so. Did I already ask if the applicant has anything else to add? Don't believe the applicant's here. Any additional comments or issues or questions or motions? I'll make a motion to approve as presented. Second. Motion and second. All in favor?

All opposed? Motion passes. Item two, consideration of application for a preliminary plat for Hamilton Place subdivision phase three submitted by Andy Richardson, R&H Engineering Services and Surveying LLC on behalf of property owner Lloyd Miller Jr. The request is to create 19 detached single family residential lots and two common open spaces on 6.73 plus or minus acres. The subject property is on R3 Plan Residential District and is located at the northwest corner of Terry Chase and Craft Road known as 7295 Craft Road North. Report please. Mayor Adman, before you is a request to consider the preliminary plat for 19 lots. This phase three of Hamilton Place subdivision. So this will be 19 detach single family residential lots just as those in its immediate surrounding. [snorts] um sidewalks would be required along terriers drive in the frontage of this particular piece of property and along all the new streets being proposed. So these streets will be constructed with curb gutter and sidewalks. These are 19 single family residential lots proposed. The design aligns with the preliminary development plan and the project text for the Hamilton Place subdivision. Minimum lot size 9,000 square ft. There some of the lots that go up to 17,000 even 20,000 square ft in lot area. The houses will be twotory. So the uh plan residential district requires lots of at least 9,000 ft² for one-story homes and 12,000 ft for twotory homes. So in any area where the the the

lots on any of the lot that is less than 12,000 square ft you cannot have twotory building on that particular piece of property. So seawore is available this green line here that is seaw wall. It will be the responsibility of the developer to extend all these utilities both seaw water and gas lines for the development of this subdivision. This particular piece of property, a common opponent space A47 is proposed to be used for storm water management from this subdivision. The planning commission reviewed this at it meeting on January 13 and recommended approval subject to these conditions one to six. Condition number two being upon the approval of this preliminary development of this preliminary plat, the applicant would have to submit construction plans to the city engineer for approval. The developer would have to also be required to construct sidewalks along Terry Chase drive and connect to the existing sidewalks along Terry Chase drive and crav north. So you have to construct this in front of the property. Trees one 2 in to 2 and 1/2 in caliber decided trees shall also be planted in the front yard of each home prior to use and occupancy of the house. Two trees shall be planted for corner lots. That concludes staff's presentation. Thank you.

Thank you, sir. Questions on the staff report? I do have a question. I know I understand that this is just an addition to an existing subdivision, so the plat's been around for a while, but other areas of this subdivision. What has been the buffer used between um backyards actually of what's already there? Like these these lots are going to back up on two sides, the north and the west to existing lots. And I'm probably going to get some questions asked about that. Do they just build them and then if the residents want to put a fence up, they put a fence up?

Yes, ma'am. This is phase three of the same subdivision. The use is the same. Single family residential, the lot sizes are the same. Um there's really no difference or no impact from what is being proposed and what is existing. So in the PUD the project text for Hamilton Place, there is no requirement for any buffering between residential lots. Um would like to go ahead and make a motion to approve. Motion to approve by Miss Hamilton. Is there a second by Mr. Collins? Any discussion? All in favor?

All oppose? Motion carries. Item three, consideration of application for a final plat for Harvest Church of Dotto submitted by Caleb Gil Civil Link LLC on behalf of Steven Roberts, Harvest Dninnesota Church property owner. The request is to create a single lot of 5.46 plus or minus acres. The subject property is zoned AR Agricultural Residential District and is located at the northeast corner of Pulk Lane and Highway 302 known as 12050 Goodman Road.

Mayor Adam, this is a final plat for a church. The property is zone AR agricultural residential at the northeast corner of all Goodman road or uh church highway 302 and pork lane. So this is the piece of property. It's existing. It has a building on it. It has a church building on it. The applicant is just proposing to plat this in order to be able to obtain a building permit for any building addition on this particular parcel. The applicant also intends to extend the parking area to expand parking on this particular piece of property. This is the plot. It meets all the requirements of the zoning ordinance and the subdivision regulations of the city. The planning commission reviewed this at its meeting on January 13, 2026 and unanimously recommended approval subject to this standard condition one through five. That concludes staff's presentation. Thank you.

Thank you. Any questions on this report? Make a motion to approve. Collins. Motion to approve. Second. Second. Miss Aldridge. Any discussion? All in favor?

All oppose. Motion carries. Thank you. Before we get too far down the agenda, I want to just make a announcement. I think Noah was Noah was having so much fun. We've had two ladies from our mayor's youth council join us. Miss Reese Wulmarmac and Miss Lily Panel, thank you for being with us tonight as well. Now that I've embarrassed you, you can thank you very much for being with us. And uh Reese, Miss Re, you're a two-year member. You've been with us two years, right? So, thank you a lot. Glad y'all are here. Next item,

sir. Okay, this is a public hearing date and action on a motion declaring the condition of the following properties to be amended to the public health and safety and directing city staff or contract labor to clean the property forth with and I believe Mr. D, we had a discussion on the 7435 West Murray Hill Creek. It needs addressing but there needs to be more research.

Yes, sir. And and actually on the board screen you've got recommended action by uh planning code enforcement. Uh I recommend that the Murray Hill property be tabled so that we can ascertain the interested parties, make sure they have proper notice uh before any further actions taken on that property and Dr. Song on Humphrey Boulevard withdrawing that just to consider what approach to take with that property. Yes, sir. Yeah. And so there be a recommendation to table Murray Hill and actually table both of them because you you probably don't want to restart your notice process with Humphrey. You can just update it table to a certain date specifically table both of them.

Uh yes uh yes sir I would table both of them and just because of um time to order title work mayor I would do more than two weeks. Okay. My recommendation would be to table it to the 17th of February. Motion from council's table to the February the 17th. Is anybody from the board will a willing to make that motion? Mr. Wallace. Motion is there a second? Second. Second, Mr. Collins. All in favor?

All opposed? Motion carries. New business, consideration of recommendation to approve change order number two on the contract with Grinder, Taper, and Grinder Incorporated in the additive amount of $1,147, increasing the contract amount from $4,542,60043 to $4,543,74743 and extending the contract time by 38 days, making the new project completion date January the 22nd, 2026 for the project referred to as the George Harrison Soccer Complex phase two. And Mr. Swims, this is basically seating or springriging the the grass that needs to be finished on the fields and spring to allow that to start growing. Is that in a nutshell? that would

that is the main thing is to to get us to the 38 days to add on to it to allow for the springing and then the change order amount is actually a very small amount for the fencing and for some temporary seating in the meantime. Well, they're looking really positive. They're looking looking beautiful those fields are. I know all of us drive by them and and then the new concession stand mirrors the first phase concession stand and it's going to be a quality buildout. But is there consideration of the board for a motion along these lines? So move. Mr. Mr. Gamage motion. Is there a second? Mr. Wallace. Second. Mr. Wallace. Second. All in favor?

All opposed? Motion carries. Item two, consideration of recommendation to approve change order number one on the contract with W&T Contract Incorporation in the additive amount of $33,919.30 30 increasing the contract amount from 5,632,250 to 5,666,16930 for the project referred to as fire station number six. And this deals with the relocation of electrical that was required by North Central uh once the project began that the requirement came in. So this is a pad for it and electrical component. Is that right?

Both the generator and the transformer that were being put in um was instigated, I guess, from North Central um to relocate those into an area that was going to be more stable. Um those are one's going behind the building. Well, they're both going behind the building, but kind of in two different locations, but it is some additional cost that's associated with it as far as um those those areas are um surrounded. They've got they got a drain we've got to take them through. um a old water separator. And so some of the cost that's associated [snorts] with that is what I guess we're seeing in this uh change order amount of $33,919. And we do we do understand I guess the the need for it. Um and North Central's position on it. So we do recommend this change order.

Thank you. Any questions or motions board? So move second your heart. Earhart motion second Collins. All in favor? All opposed. Motion carries. And it was not the private garage for Deputy Chief Hogan to park his 4x4 in. I want to make sure that's not the case. Very good. Board. Is there a motion to leave regular session with the intentions of going into executive session to discuss items one through five? Wallace. Motion.

Second. Jan Alderson. Aldridge. Let me go with Aldidge this time. My voice is getting tired. Miss Jan Aldidge. A second. One through five. Six. Okay. Well, I didn't have a six on my Okay. Thank you. One through six. My copy didn't. I had an earlier vision. So, motion still stand. Okay. And I had a second or no. Yeah. Miss Alders was second. All in favor? All oppose? We

motion carries. Is there a motion to go into executive session to discuss personnel matters in the police department, personnel matters in the fire department, personnel matter in the street department, personnel matter in the gas maintenance department, economic development, and executive summary. Is there a motion to go in executive session for those items? Some move. Collins motion second. Wallace. All in favor? I.

All oppose. We're in executive session. Visitors, you're welcome to stay. Uh but what we do in executive session is personnel items that are not discussed in public because it's about a specific employee or something that has legal implications. We may be in executive session 15 minutes or two hours and then we come back out and we close. So you're welcome to stay or not.
