• <br /> Ordinance 811 , Serie• 1985 , was adopted <br /> unanimously. <br /> NEW PtRE STATION SITE Sundial, related to Council the numerous <br /> discussions with representatives of the Louisville <br /> Firs Protection District, McStain Enterprises and <br /> Bomart about a sits for a new substation in <br /> southwest Louisville. During the past three <br /> months discussions led to an exchange of all or <br /> part of Parcel A for 1 1/2 acres in either Parcel <br /> S (owned by Homart) or Parcel C (owned by <br /> McStain.) Parcels 3 and C have immediate access <br /> to Via Appia and either parcel would be an ideal <br /> location for • new substation. The existing <br /> Parcel A has no direct arterial access and cannot <br /> be served by Flight for Life helicopter service <br /> because of adjacent Public Service powerlinea. A <br /> key to any exchange would be to ensure compatible <br /> uses and densities in Parcel A so as to minimize <br /> disruptions to adjacent property owners, and to <br /> negotiate the best exchange possible. <br /> Cussen spoke in favor of the proposal and would <br /> like to see negotiations to continue. Johnson <br /> asked the zoning of the parcels. Parcel B is <br /> zoned by multi-family and Parcel C is currently <br /> low-density zoning. Bundley is seeking an even <br /> trade in terms of numbers of residential units. <br /> Parcels B and C are approximately 1 1/2 acres and <br /> the existing site, Parcel A is approximately 5 <br /> acres. Bundley would like to negotiate something <br /> that would reflect the difference in size although <br /> Parcels 8 and C are of more value due to <br /> accessibility. Johnson would also hope that <br /> negotiations for the completion of Via Appia would <br /> also take place with the developers. <br /> Hundley stated that McStain, the major property <br /> owner adjacent to the extension of Via Appia, and <br /> Bomart the remaining developer, have expressed <br /> their desire to work with the City in the <br /> construction of Via Appia. <br /> Dan Ross, Fire Chief, explained to Council that <br /> the time frame for the development of the site <br /> would depend on the development of the area. <br /> Monies have been escrowed for the substation and <br /> would expand quickly once the numbers warrant the <br /> expansion to this site. <br /> Luce spoke in favor of the negotiations as it <br /> would be a benefit to the entire community. Mayor <br /> Meier commended the Fire Department for their <br /> commitment in finding a suitable site and moved <br /> that staff continue negotiations with McStain and <br /> 8 <br />
