LUZ COMMITTEE AGENDA MEETING MINUTES - AMENDED

 

October 1, 2013

1:00 p.m.

Suite 425, City Hall

117 West Duval Street

 

Attendance:  Council Members Lori Boyer (Chair), Jim Love, Matt Schellenberg and Don Redman

See attached sign-in sheet for additional attendees.

 

Chairwoman Boyer called the meeting to order at 1:09 p.m. and reviewed the marked agenda which contained 6 items marked for deferral, 5 items ready for action, 14 public hearings to be opened and continued, and 36 items for second reading and re-referral.

 

2012-657/720 (Bostwick Building demolition appeal/historic designation): the committee will be asked to decide whether to grant one or more additional deferrals or take action on the bills.  A lawsuit between the current owners of the building and the owner of the adjacent building regarding water intrusion issues is still not settled and is holding up the transaction.  The DIA staff and board are going to get involved in an attempt to bring a positive resolution.

 

2013-5 (rezoning on Shindler Drive): the applicant has requested withdrawal of the item.

 

2013-474 (rezoning on Aladdin Road): the public hearing will be opened and continued to 11.19.13.

 

2013-604 (withdrawal of an application for small-scale land use amendment with refund of fees): the bill was deferred in the Rules Committee yesterday, but the Chair plans to move to take action in LUZ tonight.

 

2013-623/624 (land use amendment and rezoning on Oak Bluff Lane): the applicant requests that the public hearing be opened and continue until at least 11.19.13.

 

Ms. Boyer noted that an LUZ Workshop will be held at 4:30 to discuss the information package mailed out to properties within 350 feet of a small scale land use change proposal.  She plans to meet with Planning and Development Director Calvin Burney and with Chief of Community Planning Gary Kresel to discuss potential changes to the existing process.

 

There being no further business, the agenda meeting was adjourned at 1:19 p.m.
