City Council Meeting Minutes April 21, 2015 Page 13 of 21 Council member Keany arrived at 9:05 p.m. Council member Stolzmann explained how she reviewed this proposal. First she looked at the zoning for commercial (defined as well planned shopping centers and facilities). Then she looked at the General Development Plan (GDP) (defined as research, office and retail). She felt a commercial area includes hospital and medical offices, but the confusion is in the GDP, which limits development to research and office. She felt Council is being asked to change the GDP to be clear on the usage. She takes into account public comment and voiced her concem over the underground drainage. She stated the project does include a drainage plan, but it may be a problem with ground water. She encouraged the neighbors to work with the developer. She addressed the construction debris and noted there are EPA requirements and encouraged the residents to contact Public Works should problems arise. She suggested changing the use to commercial, but felt the project should go forward. Planning and Building Safety Director Russ explained this proposal is required to have a Stormwater Management Plan and Public Works Department makes their inspections on a weekly basis to make sure they are in compliance. Mayor Muckle encouraged the two property owners to look into the ground water issues. Mayor Muckle called for public comment and hearing none, closed the public hearing.
