[A. Public Hearing and Consideration of Ordinance No. ______ Amending Title 7, Animals, of the Edmond Municipal Code by Amending Section 7.09.120 Keeping of Animals, Treatment, Outdoor Shelter, By Adding Language Related to the Outdoor Temperature; and Providing for Repealer and Severability.]

PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDERATION OF ORDINANCE NUMBER 39 38.

39 38 AMENDING TITLE SEVEN ANIMALS OF THE EDMOND MUNICIPAL CODE BY AMENDING SECTION 7.0 9 1 20, KEEPING OF ANIMALS TREATMENT OUTDOOR SHELTERS BY ADDING LANGUAGE RELATED TO THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE AND PROVIDING FOR REPEAL AND SEVERABILITY.

MAYOR COUNSEL, THIS PARTICULAR ORDINANCE IS, UH, BROUGHT TO YOUR ATTENTION DENIED, UH, KENNY STEVENSON OR ANIMAL WELFARE SUPERVISOR IS HERE.

UH, OUR EXISTING, UH, MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE SEVEN DEALS WITH ANIMALS.

AND WE HAVE A PARTICULAR SECTION DEALING WITH THE APPROPRIATE TREATMENT AT AN OUTDOOR SHELTER FOR ANIMALS IN OUR COMMUNITY.

UH, KENNY BROUGHT IT TO MY ATTENTION THAT, THAT WE NEEDED TO MAKE SOME ADDITIONS TO OUR EXISTING CODE TO PROVIDE FOR LANGUAGE THAT SHELTER FOR A DOG OR CAT SHOW CONSIST OF A MOISTURE PROOF AND WINDPROOF STRUCTURE AND SUITABLE SIZE TO ACCOMMODATE THE ANIMAL AND TO ALLOW RETENTION AND BODY HEAT.

ALSO, UH, DEALING WITH DOGS, THE ANIMALS NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S A SUFFICIENT STRUCTURES, UM, AND FOR OUTDOOR DOG HOUSES AND SIMILAR STRUCTURES, UH, TO PROVIDE AN INDEPENDENT SOURCE OF HEAT, UH, THAT IS SAFE FOR USE AND OUTDOOR STRUCTURES AND DOES NOT POSE A DANGER, UH, TO THE ANIMAL.

THE ANIMAL'S BODY HEAT'S NOT A SUFFICIENT SOURCE WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 32 DEGREES IN OUR CITY AND A VEHICLE SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED, UH, AN ADEQUATE SHELTER, UH, AND SHALL BE PROHIBITED.

UM, AND IT SHALL BE UNLAWFUL, UH, AND A VIOLATION FOR ANY PERSON TO LEAVE ANY DOG OUTDOORS AND UNATTENDED FOR A PERIOD OF ONE HALF HOUR OR LONGER WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 32 DEGREES.

SO THIS LANGUAGE, UH, KENNY, BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION, OKLAHOMA CITY, HAS A SIMILAR LANGUAGE AND HE'S HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE.

VERY GOOD.

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR CITY COUNCIL.

YES.

UH, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? AND I'LL GIVE A BRIEF DESCRIPTION.

I'LL BE REALLY SHORT AS FAR AS THE REASON WHY I REQUESTED THIS CHANGE IN THE CITY ORDINANCE.

UH, BASICALLY IT CAME ABOUT LAST YEAR, UH, WHEN WE HAD SIGNIFICANT INCREASES AND HAD SOME, UH, REALLY SIGNIFICANT WEATHER EVENTS, ARCTIC COLD FRONTS THAT CAME IN, AND THE TEMPERATURES DROPPED TO RECORD SETTING LEVELS.

AND, UM, LAST JANUARY, OKLAHOMA CITY, UM, WENT TO THE CITY COUNCIL AND ASKED FOR AN EMERGENCY ORDER TO CHANGE NURSE CITY ORDINANCE SIMPLY BASED ON, UM, IT CAN BE A LITTLE BIT OF A CHALLENGE WHEN THE TEMPERATURES CAN BE ZERO DEGREES, WIND CHILLS, MINUS NEGATIVE SNOW, ICE AND SO FORTH.

UH, BUT THEY BASICALLY REQUESTED AN EMERGENCY ORDER TO PUT THAT 32 D 32 DEGREE HARD TEMPERATURE IN THE CITY ORDINANCE TO MAKE EVERYTHING MORE CONSISTENT.

TO GIVE EVERYBODY, AS WELL AS LIKE MY OFFICERS AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS, UH, BASICALLY SOMETHING THAT THEY KNOW AS MORE DEFINITIVE, UH, AS FAR AS BEING ABLE TO ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES WHEN WE HAVE TO RESPOND TO WELFARE, UH, CHECKS AS FAR AS THAT.

ALSO, WE KIND OF ALSO WANTED TO ADDRESS AS FAR AS, UM, THE STRUCTURES IN OUR CURRENT CITY ORDINANCE.

IT DOESN'T REALLY ADDRESS HAVING THE HEAT SOURCE OR SO FORTH INSIDE THAT HOUSE TO BE ABLE TO, UH, PROTECT THAT ANIMAL.

ONE THAT'S SAFE AND THAT'S ACTUALLY APPROVED TO BE INSIDE THAT STRUCTURE.

UM, AND THAT'S WHY WE ALSO ADD FOR THAT ADDITIONAL, UH, PART IN THE CITY ORDINANCE.

UM, ALSO, WE DID HAVE A FEW INSTANCES LAST YEAR AS WELL AS THIS YEAR WHERE PEOPLE WOULD USE THEIR VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT OPERATIONAL TO PLACE THEIR ANIMALS IN THEIR, IN INCLEMENT WEATHER.

IN PARTICULAR, THEIR FREEZING WEATHER.

AND THAT'S NOT SUFFICE CAUSE IT COULD NOT PROVIDE ANY, UH, HEAT SOURCE AS FAR AS INSIDE

[00:10:01]

SO WE FEEL LIKE THIS IS GOING TO BE BETTER AS FAR AS BEING ABLE, BEING CONSISTENT WITH OUR NEIGHBORS, OKLAHOMA CITY, YUKON, MUSTANG, AND ALL THOSE OTHER PLACES THAT I WORK WITH ON A REGULAR BASIS.

UM, SO THAT'S THE REASON WHY.

UM, DOES SOMEBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? SO BASICALLY, THIS IS JUST FOR DOGS, BUT WE HAVE OTHER ANIMALS THAT STAY OUTSIDE AND WE'RE NOT CONSIDERING THOSE IN THIS.

THAT'S CORRECT.

UM, UNDER THE ORDINANCE, I WOULD SAY I'VE BEEN THERE FOR 22 YEARS.

AND PRIMARILY THE ONLY THING THAT WE'VE HAD ANY ISSUES WITH IS IT'S BEEN DOGS.

OKAY.

UH, AS FAR AS ANY MAJOR ISSUES, BUT LIVESTOCK AND SO FORTH.

WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES WITH VERY GOOD COUNSEL.

ANY QUESTIONS? WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU.

I KNOW I, I, I KNOW I'VE RECEIVED SOME POSITIVE COMMENTS FROM CITIZENS THAT THEY WERE GLAD THAT THIS IS ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT.

ITEM

[C. Case #Z22-00023 Public Hearing and Consideration of Ordinance # ________ Rezoning from “F-1” Light Industrial to “PUD Z22-00023” Planned Unit Development, located on the west side of Kelley Pointe Parkway, north of 33rd Street. (ERC Building Company) (Ward 3)]

39 39 REZONING FROM F1 LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TO P U D Z 22 DASH 0 0 23.

PLAN UNIT DEVELOPMENT LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF KELLY POINT PARKWAYS NORTH OF 33RD STREET, E R C BUILDING COMPANY.

IT IS THE APPLICANT.

IS THE APPLICANT HERE.

THANK YOU.

OKAY.

UH, AS YOU SAID, THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING APPROVAL OF THE P U D ON THE WEST SIDE OF KELLY POINT PARKWAY NORTH OF 33RD STREET.

UH, THE SITE OUTLINED IN YELLOW, THERE IS 12 ACRES AND IS CURRENTLY ZONED F1 LIGHT INDUSTRIAL.

THE P U D WILL ALLOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SITE WITH 216 APARTMENTS AND 12 TOWN HOMES WITH A MAXIMUM GROSS DENSITY OF 20 DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE.

UH, THE P U D COMMITS TO THE BUILDINGS BEING 70% BRICK STUCCO STONE OR MASONRY BOARD WITH WOOD AND METAL ACCENTS, UH, AND NO MORE THAN 42 FEET IN HEIGHT AND WILL HAVE A 20 FOOT LANDSCAPE BERM ALONG THE PERIMETER OF THE SITE.

UH, THE P U D COMMITS TO SETBACKS FROM THE NORTH BOUNDARY OF 30 FEET FOR TWO STORY STRUCTURES AND 50 FEET FOR THREE STORY STRUCTURES.

UH, THE SITE IS UNLI UNLIKELY TO BE ADJACENT TO ANY RESIDENTIAL AS IT IS BEING CARVED OUT OF THE KELLY POINT PARKWAY DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS GENERALLY BEEN DEVELOPED WITH OFFICES ALONG KELLY, SOUTH AND EAST OF THIS SITE.

UH, THE HIDDEN PRAIRIE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IS LOCATED 90 FEET TO THE NORTH OF THIS SITE AND 300 FEET, UH, TO THE WEST ACROSS THE FLOODPLAIN.

CITY SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE TO SERVE THE DEVELOPMENT, UH, THE EDMOND PLAN 2018 DESIGN AREAS EMPLOYMENT, WHICH ARE AREAS THAT ARE MEANT TO PROVIDE FOR THE JOBS AND INDUSTRIES SERVING EDMOND.

THE CATEGORY ALSO ANTICIPATES THE NEED FOR HOUSING IN AND AROUND THOSE AREAS, PROVIDING EASY ACCESS TO THOSE JOBS.

UH, DEVELOPING THIS SITE WITH HOUSING SEEMS

[00:20:01]

GOOD.

THANK YOU.

COUNSEL.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF RIGHT NOW? APPLICANT WOULD LIKE TO ADD ANYTHING.

WE WOULD MARK ZZA WITH JOHNSON AND ASSOCIATES ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT.

WITH ME TONIGHT IS TIM JOHNSON, THE ENGINEER ON THE PROJECT.

WE HAVE A SHORT PRESENTATION THAT WE'D LIKE TO GO THROUGH.

THANK YOU.

UH, I'M GONNA RUN THROUGH MY PORTION AND THEN I'M GONNA TURN IT OVER TO TIM TO CLOSE ON, UH, THE TRAFFIC DISCUSSION.

SO FIRST WE WANNA THANK EVERYONE FOR THEIR TIME AND PATIENCE ON THIS ONE.

UH, PARTICULARLY STAFF AND THE AND THE, THE NEIGHBORS.

WE WERE ORIGINALLY AT PLANNING COMMISSION BACK IN NOVEMBER, SO IT'S, IT'S TAKEN A LITTLE BIT LONGER TO GET HERE, BUT I THINK THE OUTCOME WAS POSITIVE AND I THINK WE'VE AGREED TO SOME THINGS THAT HOPEFULLY, UH, THE NEIGHBORS ARE IN SUPPORT OF.

UH, BUT I'M GONNA WALK YOU QUICKLY THROUGH THE PROJECT AND THE SITE.

SO THE SITE IS WITHIN THE KELLY POINT DEVELOPMENT.

UH, THERE IS A DRAINAGE CHANNEL ON THE NORTH SIDE AND A REGIONAL, UH, RETENTION POND ON OUR WEST SIDE THAT, UH, WAS BUILT AND CONSTRUCTED TO SERVICE THE ENTIRE KELLY POINT DEVELOPMENT.

UH, THE LIGHT GREEN THAT'S SHOWN ON THIS EXHIBIT IS THE AREA WE ARE COMMITTING TO PRESERVE.

THAT IS ON OUR SITE.

THERE'S ADDITIONAL TREE CANOPY AND COVERAGE, UH, OUTSIDE OF OUR SITE, UH, THAT WE'VE WORKED WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER, UH, MR. CLAY FARRA TO ALSO, UH, PRESERVE.

AND HE WILL WORK WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE FUTURE TO PUT THAT IN A CONSERVATION EASEMENT.

UH, MUCH OF IT IS WITHIN THE FLOODWAY AND FLOODPLAIN, WHICH WOULDN'T BE DEVELOPABLE, UH, ANYWAY.

HOW MANY ACRES IS THAT MARK? WHICH PIECE? THAT PRESERVATION? I WOULD HAVE TO CALCULATE THAT, UH, AND GET BACK WITH YOU ON THAT.

DO YOU MEAN WITHIN THE SITE? WITHIN THE SITE OR THE GREEN, GREEN SHADED AREA? GREEN.

OKAY.

I ESTIMATING IT.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S PROBABLY ABOUT TWO AND A HALF.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

SO THESE ARE SOME PICTURES.

YOU CAN SEE.

WE WENT OUT IN DECEMBER, UH, THE FIRST PART OF JANUARY AND DID SOME DRONE PHOTOS.

UH, THAT'S THE TOP PICTURES, BUT YOU CAN SEE THE DRAINAGE, UH, CHANNEL THAT'S BETWEEN OUR PROPERTY AND THE NEIGHBORS TO THE NORTH.

UH, BUT AGAIN, THERE'S JUST A LOT OF THE HISTORIC CROSS TIMBERS THAT MAY HAVE IT IN THIS AREA.

UM, THE BOTTOM LEFT PHOTO, YOU CAN SEE THE THREE STORY OFFICE BUILDING IMMEDIATELY SOUTH.

AND BEYOND THAT YOU SEE THAT DENSE VEGETATION.

SO I SHOW THIS, THIS IS THE ORIGINAL MASTER PLAN FOR KELLY POINT.

IT WAS ALWAYS INTENDED TO BE A VERY INTERCONNECTED DEVELOPMENT WITH COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL.

UH, RIGHT NOW THE SITE IS ZONED, UH, IT WAS INTENDED FOR CORPORATE OFFICE, BUT IT DID END UP WITH THE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL CATEGORY.

AND SO WHAT THAT MEANS TODAY IS A 50 FOOT TALL HOTEL AND OFFICE, UH, DEVELOPMENT.

BUT IT WOULD ALSO ALLOW, UH, INDUSTRIAL USES WITH BAY DOORS, UH, TRUCKS BACKING UP, UH, WITH LITTLE LIMITATION ON LIGHTING, UH, AND, AND OTHER, UH, ITEMS LIKE THAT.

THE HARD CORNER WAS ALWAYS INTENDED FOR COMMERCIAL AND RETAIL.

AND ALONG 33RD AT THE ENTRANCE, UH, ACROSS FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS ALSO ZONED FOR COMMERCIAL AND RETAIL.

SO THE USES HERE WAS ALWAYS INTENDED TO BE MIXED USE.

AND AGAIN, THE CONNECTIVITY WAS PLANNED FROM THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE PROJECT.

THIS IS OUR SITE PLAN.

IT'S, UH, MEANT TO BE A FAIRLY WALKABLE INTERNAL DEVELOPMENT.

UH, AND YOU CAN SEE THAT BY THE WAY THAT THE PARKING LOT IS LAID OUT.

IT'S DIFFERENT THAN MOST, UH, WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER SUBURBAN WALKUP APARTMENTS.

IT'S SET UP ALMOST LIKE A STREET GRID.

UH, SO ALL OF OUR LIGHTING AND OUR ACTIVITIES ARE REALLY FOCUSED INWARD ON THE DEVELOPMENT AND CENTERED AROUND A CENTRAL COURTYARD.

ONE OF THE UNIQUE THINGS THAT THIS DEVELOPER'S DOING, WHICH REALLY CAME OUT OF COVID, UH, WAS ONE OF THEIR AMENITIES IS A CO-WORKING SPACE.

SO WITH MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WORKING FROM HOME NOW, ONE OF THESE AMENITIES IS, IS A, IS BANKS OF COMPUTERS PRINTER AREAS, SO THAT RESIDENTS WORKING FROM HOME HAVE A SPACE OUTSIDE OF THEIR APARTMENT TO GO UTILIZE.

THIS ALSO PREVENTS THEM FROM HAVING TO LEAVE THE APARTMENT AND POTENTIALLY PAY FOR A CO-WORKING SPACE OUTSIDE OF THE DEVELOPMENT.

UH, HERE'S A SIMILAR GRAPHIC TO THE TREE PRESERVATION ONE.

UH, THROUGH OUR CONVERSATIONS WITH THE NEIGHBORS AT OUR MULTIPLE MEETINGS, A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS CAME UP ABOUT THE PROXIMITY OF OUR PROJECT TO THEIR PROPERTY LINES.

SO ONE OF THE THINGS WE'VE DONE WAS WE INCREASED THE SETBACKS.

RANDY MENTIONED THOSE THREE STORY BUILDINGS CAN'T BE CLOSER THAN 50 FEET TO OUR PROPERTY LINE.

UH, ONE THAT HELPS STRENGTHEN TO KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW, AS OUR PROJECT MOVES MOVE FORWARD, THOSE BUILDINGS CAN'T SHIFT THAT DRAMATICALLY.

OUR SITE PLAN APPLICATION IS CURRENTLY IN, SO WHAT YOU'RE SEEING ON THE SCREEN IS WHAT WE'VE PROPOSED AND WE'RE WORKING WITH STAFF NOW ON SOME OF THOSE DETAILS.

AND THEN WE'LL BE BACK TO PLANNING COMMISSION HOPEFULLY IN THE COMING MONTHS.

BUT WHAT THIS SHOWS IS FROM OUR CURB OF OUR PARKING LOT TO OUR NEAREST PROPERTY LINE, WE'RE STILL IN EXCESS OF 140 FEET AWAY.

THERE'S STILL QUITE A DISTANCE BETWEEN US, UH, AND THE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES TO OUR NORTH AND WEST ARE WEST SIDE FROM BUILDING TO BUILDING, WE'RE IN EXCESS OF 500 FEET AND THAT'S THE CLOSEST

[00:25:01]

LET TIM TALK ON THIS.

UH, ONE OF THE, THE HARD THINGS ABOUT, UH, LOOKING AT A PROJECT LIKE THIS IN COMPARISON TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS, WAS VISUALIZING WHAT THIS MIGHT LOOK LIKE.

SO WHAT WE'VE DONE IS WE CREATED SOME RENDERINGS AND SOME CROSS SECTIONS TO SHOW, UH, THE TYPICAL RESIDENTIAL HOUSE THAT'S IN THE AREA.

HOW FAR AWAY, UH, ARE WE FROM THEIR PROPERTY, AND THEN WHAT'S IN BETWEEN.

SO THIS SITE IS FORTUNATE THAT THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF VEGETATION BETWEEN OUR PROPERTY AND THE RESIDENTIAL.

SO IN, UH, IN THIS IMAGE, WHAT YOU CAN SEE IS WE HAVE 200 FEET OF VEGETATION BETWEEN US.

WE TOOK IT A STEP FURTHER AND WE'VE AGREED THAT ON OUR PERIMETER OF OUR PARKING AND OUR DEVELOPMENT, WE, WE'VE AGREED TO A 20 FOOT WIDE BERM WITH VARIOUS TYPES OF LANDSCAPING ON THAT BERM.

SO IT ADDS TO THE TREE, UH, TREE PRESERVATION AREAS.

I WILL NOTE, JUST FOR CLARIFICATION, CUZ IT'S COME UP WITH STAFF, OUR BERM IS GONNA BE PLACED JUST ON THE OUTSIDE OF OUR PARKING LOT.

THE PURPOSE OF THAT IS, UH, I THINK INITIALLY MAYBE THERE WAS THOUGHT IT WOULD BE PUT ON THE PROPERTY LINE.

WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO REMOVE, YOU KNOW, A HUNDRED YEAR OLD TREES AND TAKE DOWN 50 FOOT TALL TREES TO PLANT NEW 15 FOOT TALL TREES.

SO IT'S GONNA BE A LONGER PARKING LOT, AND THAT ALLOWS TRUE PRESERVATION AND THEN ALSO NEW PLANTINGS.

THIS IS, UH, ANOTHER CROSS SECTION, UH, HERE.

THIS IS ONE OF THE NARROWER ONES.

YOU CAN SEE THAT THE USE OF THE BERM IS LIMITING THE IMPACTS OF THE CARS AND THE PARKING AND THE BUILDINGS.

THOSE TREES OUT THERE ARE, UH, ON THE AVERAGE HEIGHT IS 50 TO 55 FEET.

SOME ARE IN EXCESS OF 60.

SO OUR BUILDINGS BEING 42 FEET IN HEIGHT.

WERE BELOW THE, THE KIND OF AVERAGE HEIGHT OF THAT TREE CANOPY.

OUR WINDOWS AND OUR THIRD FLOOR UNITS ARE BELOW THAT.

SO ANY VISIBILITY IS GONNA BE OBSTRUCTED TO ANY RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORS.

SO THESE ARE SOME OF THE RENDERINGS THAT WE PUT TOGETHER.

SCREENING BACK THE TREES, UH, THAT'S ABOUT WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE.

UH, AGAIN, WE ARE FORTUNATE THAT WE HAVE, UH, THIS TREE COVERAGE HERE AND YOU COULD SEE, UH, THE KIND OF LEAFLESS TREES.

THOSE HARDWOODS ARE WHAT ARE IN BETWEEN US.

AND EVEN IN THE DEAD OF WINTER, VISIBILITY THROUGH THAT IS ALMOST NONEXISTENT.

THIS IS A VIEW LOOKING SOUTH, YOU CAN SEE THAT THREE STORY OFFICE BUILDING.

THIS IS A DRONE SHOT THAT'S ABOUT 55 FEET IN THE AIR.

THESE ARE CROSS SECTIONS LOOKING BACK TO OUR WEST.

UH, SO THAT SIDE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD SETS BACK MUCH FURTHER THAN OUR NORTH SIDE.

AND SO HERE BETWEEN BUILDINGS YOU'RE OVER 500 FEET WITH A MUCH MORE SIGNIFICANT LANDSCAPE BUFFER IN BETWEEN.

BUT ALSO WE HAVE AGREED TO THE 20 FOOT LANDSCAPING BERM ON THIS SIDE AS WELL.

THESE WERE THE RENDERINGS, UH, FROM FOX GLOVE, THE RESIDENTIAL STREET.

AND HERE WE ALSO SHOW WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE, UH, IF THOSE TREES WEREN'T THERE.

BUT GIVEN THAT THOSE ARE IN A FLOODPLAIN AND FLOODWAY, THERE'S NO ANTICIPATION AT ANY POINT THAT THOSE WOULD BE REMOVED.

AND HERE'S THE LAST ONE, AGAIN, JUST SHOWING THE DISTANCE.

UH, THERE IS A BIT OF A GRADE CHANGE HERE.

SO THE HOME'S ACTUALLY SET A LITTLE BIT HIGHER, UH, THAN OUR PROPERTY.

HERE'S THE, I BELIEVE, THE LAST RENDERING FROM THAT ANGLE.

SO THIS IS LOOKING BACK EAST AGAIN.

WE'RE 55, 60 FEET IN THE AIR, AND YOU CAN SEE THE AMOUNT OF VEGETATION IN BETWEEN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, UH, AND OUR DEVELOPMENT, MORE IMAGES.

AND THEN, UH, YOU'LL SEE THIS AGAIN IN OUR SITE PLAN APPLICATION, BUT HERE ARE THE CURRENT PROPOSED BUILDINGS.

RANDY MENTIONED IT'S A MIX OF MASONRY MATERIALS.

UH, THIS FITS IN WITH THE KELLY POINT DEVELOPMENT.

AND SO BEFORE I TURN IT OVER TO TAM, I JUST WANNA SUMMARIZE THE CHANGES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE PUD SINCE NOVEMBER.

SO WE'VE INCREASED OUR THREE STORY SETBACK TO 50 FEET.

UH, OUR MAXIMUM DENSITY ORIGINALLY IN THE P U D WAS 247 UNITS.

WE BROUGHT THAT DOWN TO 228.

WE'VE ADDED THE 20 FOOT LANDSCAPE BERM.

WE'VE RESTRICTED ACCESS TO OUR NORTH AND TO OUR WEST.

THAT WAY IF ANYONE SOUGHT TO PROPOSE A STREET ONE DAY, OUR PROJECT WOULD NOT PUSH TRAFFIC OUT NORTH OR TO THE WEST INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

WE'VE ADDED THAT NO AMENDMENTS TO THE PUD SHALL BE MADE WITHOUT CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL.

UH, AND A PUBLIC NOTICE WITH THAT.

THERE WAS CONCERN WITH THE NEIGHBORS THAT WHAT WE AGREE TO MAY BE ADMINISTRATIVELY AMENDED LATER.

I THINK YOUR CODE RESTRICTS A LOT OF THAT, BUT IT WAS A BIT OF A BELT AND SUSPENDERS APPROACH.

BUT WE JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT AT NO POINT WOULD SOMEONE BE AMENDING THIS WITHOUT YOUR APPROVAL AND THEIR NOTIFICATION.

AND THEN THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT WAS REDUCED.

AND I'LL END WITH, WE DID QUITE A BIT OF WORK ON THE LIGHTING.

SO THERE'S NO WALL PACKS THAT ARE GONNA BE PERMITTED ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDINGS THAT ARE FACING NORTH AND WEST.

SO THAT'S TO MITIGATE ANY LIGHT POLLUTION.

SO BETWEEN THE PEDESTRIAN STYLE LIGHTING, THE LIMITATION ON WALL PACKS,

[00:30:01]

AND SO WITH THAT, I'M GONNA TURN IT BACK OVER TO TIM AND LET HIM CLOSE ON TRAFFIC.

HERE WE GO.

I HAVE ONE QUESTION ON THOSE AMENITIES THAT YOU, ON THE CHANGES TO THE P U D THAT'S BASED ON THE I I'M ASSUMING NUMEROUS CONVERSATIONS YOU HAD WITH THE RESIDENTS FROM NOVEMBER TO TODAY.

THAT THAT IS CORRECT.

OKAY.

YEAH, WE HAD, UH, ONE IN-PERSON MEETING IN JANUARY, BEGINNING OF JANUARY, AND THEN WE HAD A SECOND MEETING VIRTUALLY, UH, AND THEN THERE WERE PROBABLY HALF A DOZEN EMAILS EXCHANGED.

AND SO EVERYTHING THAT YOU'VE SEEN HERE HAS BEEN SHARED WITH THE NEIGHBORS MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE PLANNING COMMISSION, THEN OF COURSE AT PLANNING COMMISSION.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

GOOD EVENING.

TIM JOHNSON WITH JOHNSON ASSOCIATES.

UH, SO MARKS RUN THROUGH MOST OF THE CONCERNS THAT WE HAD HEARD FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

ONE OF THE BIG CONCERNS WAS TRAFFIC.

SO, UH, EVEN THOUGH THE STAFF HAD NOT ASKED FOR IT, WE WENT AHEAD AND PREPARED A, A, UH, I WOULD CALL IT ABBREVIATED TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY, UH, WHERE WE EVALUATED THE NUMBER OF FI UH, VEHICLES THAT WOULD BE PRODUCED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SIZE.

WE LOOKED AT THE STREETS AND THE SIGNALS AND WE ACTUALLY DID A 24 HOUR COUNT ON 33RD, UH, AT, UH, HIDDEN PRAIRIE WAY.

THAT'S THE, THE STREET ON THE SOUTH.

IT DOES NOT HAVE A SIGNAL.

IT SAYS, AS YOU CAN SEE BY THIS GRAPHIC THAT, UH, UH, THE LIKELY EXIT FOR ANY OF OUR, UH, UH, PEOPLE IN THE, IN THE PRO IN THE PROJECT WOULD BE TO KELLY.

IT JUST MAKES SENSE.

IT'S A SHORTER DISTANCE.

THEY'RE SIGNALED IF YOU WANT TO GO NORTH, YOU CAN EASILY GO NORTH FROM EITHER ONE OF THOSE.

IF YOU WANT TO GO SOUTH, UH, IT'S JUST AS EASY TO TURN ON A SOUTH RIGHT ONTO KELLY.

AND THEN A RIGHT ONTO 33RD IF YOU WANT TO GO WEST, RATHER THAN DRIVE AN ADDITIONAL TWO-THIRDS OF THE WAY AROUND THE BLOCK TO COME THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO SIT AT A, AT A, UH, STOP SIGN AT 33RD.

OUR 24 HOUR COUNT SHOWED THAT, UH, DURING THE PEAK HOURS, UH, THE, THE NUMBERS WERE ACTUALLY LOWER THAN WE WOULD'VE EXPECTED OR HAD WE WOULD'VE CALCULATED FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD ITSELF, THE NUMBER OF UNITS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

UM, THE NEIGHBORS DID, UH, SUGGEST THAT, UH, THE SIGNAL AT, UH, THE NORTHERN SIGNAL.

AND KELLY NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF WORK WITH TIMING.

WE AGREED TO WORK WITH THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT ON WORKING THROUGH SOME OF THOSE TIMING ISSUES.

APPARENTLY ONLY ONE CAR CAN MAKE A LEFT AT A TIME.

UH, AND THAT'S PRETTY MUCH A, A SIMPLE FIX FOR EDMOND'S.

GOT SOME OF THE BEST TRAFFIC EQUIPMENT IN AROUND.

SO, UH, I THINK THAT'S AN EASY FIX.

WE ALSO AGREED THAT WHEN WE GET INTO OUR DESIGN, UH, THAT WE WOULD LOOK AT THE, UH, ACTUAL DIMENSIONS OF THOSE TWO INTERSECTIONS TO SEE IF THEY NEEDED TO BE WIDENED IN ANY WAY.

AND THAT WE WOULD INCLUDE THAT IF THAT WOULD HELP THE, AND BENEFIT THE, UH, RIGHT TURN AND LEFT TURNERS AT THAT, AT THOSE INTERSECTIONS.

AND WITH THAT SAID, THE, UH, THE SI THE, UH, INTERSECTION AT 33RD IS WILL NOT WARRANT A SIGNAL.

TODAY WE ADDED A PERCENTAGE OF OUR TRAFFIC ONTO THAT AND IT WOULD STILL NOT WARRANT A SIGNAL THERE IN THE FUTURE.

AFTER THIS, THIS, UH, DEVELOPMENT IS DONE.

WE FEEL THAT AT, UH, PROBABLY WHEN 33RD DEVELOPS THIS COMMERCIAL ON BOTH SIDES, THAT WILL PROBABLY DRIVE THE USES THAT THAT INTERSECTION, UH, TO A LEVEL OF NEEDING A SIGNAL.

UH, WE ALSO LOOKED AT, UH, WHAT IF, AND SO THIS IS BEING PROPOSED AT, UH, 228 UNITS.

AND SO THAT'S GENERATING 1,506 CARS PER DAY.

UH, IF IT WERE TO DEVELOP AS AN OFFICE COMPLEX ON THAT SAME TRACT OF LAND, IT WOULD GENERATE 2,382 CARS.

A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN, IN IMPACT.

UM, AND WE, WE THINK THAT, UH, HIDDEN PRAIRIE, WHERE IS WELL DESIGNED, IT'S GOT UNDULATIONS IN IT, IT WAS DEFINITELY DESIGNED WITH, UH, THE EFFORT TO TRY AND SLOW THE TRAFFIC DOWN.

EVEN JUST THE RESIDENTS.

THERE WAS CONVERSATION IN ONE OF THE, IN THE MEETINGS WE HAD THAT, UH, THEY FEEL LIKE IT COULD USE A STOP SIGN.

IT'S A HALF MILE LONG STREET.

UH, WE TOLD 'EM THAT WHATEVER THAT, UH, APPLICATION NEEDED TO BE WITH CITY STAFF, THAT WE WOULD WORK WITH THEM TO TRY AND, UH, DIFFUSE THE SPEED ON THAT TRAFFIC.

UM, SO THIS WAS ACTUALLY OUR, THERE WAS A VIDEO CONNECTED TO THIS, BUT THIS SHOWED OUR VIDEO COUNT SYSTEM THAT WE DID.

AND AS CARS WOULD PULL UP, UH, LET'S SEE IF I CAN FIND THE POINTER.

OH, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE.

SO THIS IS THE, THE, UH, ENTRY RIGHT HERE

[00:35:01]

AND YOU CAN SEE A CAR APPROACHING THE INTERSECTION.

SO WE WOULD TIME AND COUNT THE, THE CARS AS THEY SAT THERE WAITING TO MAKE A MANEUVER.

UH, THE AM PEAK HAD VERY LITTLE DELAY.

THE PM PEAK, UH, HAD, UH, MORE DELAY AND IT WAS UP TO A MINUTE AND A HALF.

AND SOME, UH, INSTANCES WHERE THE DRIVER, RATHER THAN COME OUT AND STAGE IN THE MIDDLE ISLAND, THEY WOULD WAIT TILL IT WAS CLEAR IN BOTH WAYS AND MAKE A FULL LEFT TURN.

THOSE WERE THE LONGER DELAYS.

UM, AND THEN, THIS ISN'T MEANT FOR YOU TO READ, BUT, UH, 33RD STREET HAS 20,000 PLUS CARS A DAY, WHICH, YOU KNOW, IT'S DESIGNED FOR.

IT'S A FOUR-LANE, FULLY FUNCTIONAL, UM, STREET.

UM, AND SO, UH, THIS IS THE MO THE, UH, WARRANT REPORT THAT WE WROTE.

AND YOU CAN SEE, AND YOU PROBABLY CAN'T READ IT, BUT IT DOESN'T MEET ANY OF THE WARRANTS.

SO WITHOUT, UH, WE'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY OF YOUR QUESTIONS, COUNSEL ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

SO THIS IS THE PUBLIC HEARING.

ARE THERE ANY, UH, QUESTIONS, COMMENTS FROM THE AUDIENCE? SARAH, PLEASE COME DOWN, INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND HI.

YES, MY NAME IS JUSTIN THOMPSON.

I LIVE IN HIDDEN PRAIRIE NEIGHBORHOOD.

IF YOU COULD SPEAK OVER A LITTLE BIT TO THE MICROPHONE SO WE CAN HEAR YOU.

JUSTIN THOMPSON LIVE IN HIDDEN PRAIRIE NEIGHBORHOOD.

I, UM, SO I WAS LOOKING AT THE DOCUMENTATION BOTH ON THE ZONING PLAN FOR OKLAHOMA COUNTY AS WELL AS THE DESIGN STATEMENT FROM THEM.

I WAS WONDERING FURTHER CLARIFICATION ON WHAT THEY MEANT AS REZONING TO C DASH THREE.

SO I LOOKED ON THE ZONING PLAT AND I BELIEVE UP TO 1991 C DASH THREE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL, 1991 TO 2020, IT TURNED CL LIGHT LIMITED DISTRICT AND THEN 2020 AND ON IT CHANGED TO C DASH L LIGHT INDUSTRIAL.

SO I, JUST CHECKING ON THAT CUZ UM, THAT SPECIFIES A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 35 FEET OF ANY BUILDINGS IN THOSE TYPE OF ZONED AREAS.

SO I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THAT'LL WORK IF THEY'RE PLANNING A 42 FOOT, UM, BUILDING.

THAT'S ONE OF MY QUESTIONS.

UM, ALONG WITH THE INSPECTIONS AND EVERYTHING THAT DAY.

WHY DON'T WE DO THIS SINCE YOU HAVE MULTIPLE QUESTIONS, WHY DON'T WE TAKE ONE AT A TIME SO WE CAN BUILD THE STORY TO BUILD YOUR ANSWER.

UH, THE REFERENCE THERE WAS TO OKLAHOMA COUNTY STANDARDS, WHICH AREN'T IN EFFECT HERE.

EDMONDS CITY STANDARDS, C3 IS A, UH, HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL, WHICH HAS A HIGH RESTRICTION OF 45 FEET.

SO THEY REDUCED IT TO 42 FEET.

MM-HMM.

, OKAY.

UH, CERTIFIED THIRD PARTY INSPECTIONS.

I KNOW THAT THEY DID INSPECTIONS ON THEIR OWN.

HOWEVER, THERE WASN'T ANY, UM, VALIDATED OR CERTIFIED THIRD PARTY INSPECTIONS DONE FOR THE TRAFFIC INSPECTIONS THAT THEY DID.

UM, I HAVE TROUBLE BELIEVING IN THE VALIDITY OF THAT, CONSIDERING MOST OF THOSE OFFICES SPACES AREN'T OPEN ON WEEKENDS.

SO I DON'T KNOW HOW 2,500 CARS COULD DRIVE THROUGH THAT AREA ON A WEEKEND WHEN THE BUSINESS OR COMMERCIAL BUSINESS IS CLOSED.

UM, AND THE OTHER, UM, UNSURE ON WHAT UNDULATION MEANS, BUT LIKE HE MENTIONED, THERE'S NO STOP SIGNS CURRENTLY THAT RUN ANYWHERE, ANYWHERE THROUGH HIDDEN PRAIRIE WAY.

UM, IT'S NOT A SLOW ROUTE IF YOU SEE IT, IT'S KIND OF CURVY.

SO CARS TEND TO GO FASTER DOWN THROUGH IT.

SO, UM, THAT WOULD HELP TOO.

, UM, I MEAN, I'M NOT GONNA SPEAK TO THE TRAFFIC STUDY.

HE HASN'T SUBMITTED THE FULL TRAFFIC STUDY YET.

UH, BUT IT WILL BE SIGNED AND SEALED BY AN ENGINEER, MR. JOHNSON.

SO, UH, THAT'S, I I WILL LEAVE THAT AT, AT THAT.

UH, THE UNDULATION HE IS REFERRING TO IS THE WAY THE ROAD CURBS, UH, WHICH WAS AN ATTEMPT TO SLOW TRAFFIC AS OPPOSED TO HAVING A STRAIGHT SHOT WHERE TRAFFIC WOULD SPEAK.

UH, I THINK, UH, THE APPLICANT INDICATED AND I THINK OUR, OUR ENGINEERING TEAM, ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT'S WILLING TO LOOK AND SEE IF THE STOP SIGN IS APPROPRIATE ALONG THAT STREET.

I'LL SPEAK FOR YOU.

YOU ARE READY.

I KNOW THAT'S ONE OF TWO STREETS ON THAT SIDE OF TOWN THAT ARE BUILT LIKE THAT TO AS A TRAFFIC COMING ASPECT TO IT.

I'M NOT SURE HOW WELL IT WORKS, BUT I KNOW THAT'S WHY THEY WERE BUILT THAT WAY.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

NO, THAT'S ALL.

ANYONE ELSE? YES MA'AM.

PLEASE COME DOWN AND INTRODUCE YOURSELF.

I'M CINDY SHEFFIELD.

I ALSO LIVE IN HIDDEN PRAIRIE AT 2100, UM, HIDDEN PRAIRIE COURT.

AND I THINK I APPRECIATE A LOT WHAT THE DEVELOPERS HAVE TRIED TO MAKE SOME CHANGES AS A RESIDENT THERE.

I THINK MY PRIMARY CONCERN, I REALIZE WE CAN'T, UM, STOP PROGRESS OF BUILDING AND THAT TYPE OF THING.

I DON'T THINK ANY OF US ARE ASKING FOR THAT.

I THINK MY ONE

[00:40:01]

UM, AND I DON'T HAVE THE EXACT FEET, 90 FEET I THINK TO THE NORTH FOR THOSE PEOPLE'S BACKYARDS.

WHEN THEY FIRST BUILT THERE, THEY DID EXPECT IT TO BE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL.

AND IF YOU LOOK AROUND THAT AREA, ALL THE DIFFERENT MEDICAL BUILDINGS THAT ARE THERE EXCEPT FOR THE BUIL, THE BUILDING THAT IS CLASS A, ALVIN BATES DEVELOPED, THERE WAS A THREE STORY ONE, MOST EVERYTHING ELSE THERE IS A ONE STORY, POSSIBLY TWO STORY, AND WOULD BE WELL BENEATH THAT TREE CANOPY.

SO I FEEL LIKE MOST OF THE RESIDENTS FELT LIKE THE THREE STORY BUILDINGS ALONG THE NORTH WAS ONE OF OUR BIG CONSIDERATIONS AS FAR AS THAT, THAT COULD LOOK DOWN AGAIN AS, UH, MR. THOMPSON POINTED OUT, APARTMENT PEOPLE ARE THERE ON THE WEEKENDS AND THE EVENINGS AND THAT'S WHEN OTHER NEIGHBORHOODS ARE IN THEIR BACKYARDS DOING THINGS AND A LITTLE BIT MORE OPEN COMMERCIAL PROPERTY, EIGHT TO FIVE.

THERE'S NOT AS MUCH ACTIVITY IN YOUR BACKYARD IF SOMEBODY'S LOOKING OVER THERE, IT'S NOT AS BIG A DEAL.

UM, BUT IT IS A LITTLE BIT OF THE PRIVACY ISSUE AND KIND OF A LITTLE BIT OF THE TRUST ISSUE TOO.

FEELING LIKE WE BUILT AT A TIME WHEN IT WAS ZONED ONE WAY AND NOW IT'S KIND OF A BAIT AND SWITCH AS FAR AS CHANGING WHAT WE ANTICIPATED MIGHT BE THE ONES THERE.

SO THANK YOU FOR LISTENING.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH MA'AM.

ANYONE ELSE IN THE AUDIENCE? SO THIS IS A REZONING, CORRECT? I HAVE, I DO HAVE ONE OTHER QUESTION.

SO THERE'S CONNECTIVITY FROM THE EAST TO THE WEST AND THAT WAS GOING TO COME THROUGH THE, THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

UM, IS THERE, WHAT KIND OF VEHICLE WOULD, WOULD WHAT NORMALLY ASSOCIATE WITH THE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL? IS IT JUST A REGULAR TRAFFIC OR IS IT SOME TYPE OF SMALLER DELIVERY TRUCK OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT? OR, BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND THAT, THAT IT WAS DESIGNED FOR CONNECTIVITY, BUT I'M, I'M, WE WOULDN'T HAVE HAD A FEDEX TRUCK COMING THROUGH FROM THE, FROM THE MAIN PLANET UNLESS IT'S MAKING A DELIVERY.

I MEAN, UH HMM.

SO THAT WAS ZONE F ONE, WHICH ALLOWS A WHOLE VARIETY OF LIGHT INDUSTRIAL USES.

MM-HMM.

, WHICH COULD INCLUDE A WHOLE LOT OF DELIVERY VEHICLES, UH, YEAH.

UP TO SEMI TRUCKS THERE.

AND NOW I WOULDN'T ANTICIPATE THEY WOULD EVER GO BACK THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD JUST BECAUSE OF THE LENGTH.

RIGHT.

MUCH AS THAT AS DESCRIBED.

BUT THERE IS THAT POTENTIAL THERE.

OKAY.

NOR THE WOULD'VE BEEN, YEAH.

HAD IT DEVELOPED AS INDUSTRIAL.

VERY GOOD.

COUNSEL, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO DO? I, I GUESS I HAVE ONE QUESTION.

UM, I THINK PROBABLY MR. ZITTAU, YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT JUST ADDRESSING THE, THE RESIDENT CONCERN ABOUT VISIBILITY, UM, 42 MAXIMUM HEIGHT, THEN BELOW THAT, BUT THAT TREE CANOPY IS 50 AND THERE'S A BERM.

SO I GUESS I'M, I'M NOT NEC I, I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE I'M UNDERSTANDING THE CONCERN AND HOW IT WAS ADDRESSED AND IF THAT'S STILL A CONCERN.

NO, ABSOLUTELY.

THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

SO WE'LL GO BACK TO THIS.

SO THE AVERAGE HEIGHT, YOU CAN REALLY SEE IT.

SO SOME OF THESE TREES ARE 65 FEET TALL AND THEY'RE THE ONES THAT ARE STICKING UP.

EVERYTHING ELSE IS IN THAT 55 RANGE.

AND YOU CAN SEE THAT THAT IS A WELL VEGETATED AND THICK CANOPY.

AND THIS IS IN WINTER.

SO WITH OUR BUILDING TO THE TOP OF ROOF BEING 42 FEET, YOU GET, YOU GO DOWN ANOTHER SIX FEET BEFORE YOU'RE AT A WINDOW.

AND SO AT THAT POINT YOU'RE LOOKING CLOSER TO 35 AND THESE TREES ARE 20 FEET TALLER THAN THAT.

SO ON OUR END, AND IN WORKING WITH OUR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT AND THE DEVELOPER, THERE'S NO BELIEF THAT ANYONE IN ONE OF THOSE APARTMENTS IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO LOOK THROUGH THOSE TREES AND DOWN INTO A BACKYARD.

PARTICULARLY WHEN WE THINK ABOUT THE TIME OF YEAR, THOSE BACKYARDS ARE TYPICALLY GONNA BE USED, RIGHT.

IT'S GONNA BE SPRING, SUMMER, AND FALL.

AND MUCH OF THE VEGETATION IS GONNA BE ON THOSE TREES.

UH, AND I WOULD ADD, I THINK TODAY, AND RANDY MIGHT BACK CHECK ME HERE, UH, A HOTEL IS PERMITTED N F ONE AND THE HEIGHT ON THE HOTEL THAT WOULD BE ALLOWED WOULD BE 50 FEET, UH, 45, 45 FEET.

SO TODAY THAT HEIGHT IS PERMITTED ON THE SITE WITH A MUCH MORE TRANSIENT TYPE OF USE THAN WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING.

THANK YOU.
