It will also add 4 additional parcels to the TIF District and amend the TIF budget in order to allow for financing of a parking garage. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
2) An Ordinance Amending Ordinance 6636-02-2020 regarding the Municipal Food and Beverage Tax (postpones effective date to September 01, 2020) – At Finance Committee, it did pass 2 to 1. It was suggested that the businesses file their returns on time but delay payment so the City will know what the cash flow will be. There was lengthy discussion about what would be the best way to implement this with regard to the impact to residents during the pandemic. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
B. NEW ITEMS:
1) Sign Variance Request – 3077 Gateway Commerce Center Drive South – This is in reference to the Amazon location. They are requesting 2 sign variances at that location. The first one is for directional signs which exceed the 3 square foot limit. They are proposing larger pylon style signs. There will be 2 of them and they will be free-standing totaling 30 square feet each. The second variance is signage exceeding 300 square feet. They are proposing 379.03 square feet. Staff feels that for the magnitude and scale of the building this would be appropriate. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
2) Sign Variance Request – 3050 Gateway Commerce Center Drive South – to be distributed – Motion to hold (Krause), seconded (Morrison).
3) A Resolution Approving the Final Plat for Resubdivision of 157 Commercial Plaza – This is a final plat for a lot that exists at the intersection of Route 157 and Butler Blvd. It’s the future home of Dieterich Bank. The lot is being replatted to reconfigure access easements and green space. Motion to approve (Morrison), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
4) A Resolution Approving a Special Use Permit for a Drive-Thru Facility at 2159 South State Route 157 – Dieterich Bank – They are proposing 3 drive-thru lanes for this site. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
5) A Resolution Approving a 157 Center PUD Amendment or Outlot 2 – This is for the EXO Nail Lounge. This request is to add a kitchen. The south setback line would need to be adjusted to 8 feet. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Morrison) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
6) An Ordinance Amending Section 4-2 of the Land Development Code regarding Subdivision Variances (first reading) – This would allow variance requests for minor subdivisions. The code currently only permits variance requests for major subdivisions. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Morrison) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
7) An Ordinance Amending the Land Development Code adding Section 3-4.C “Consolidation Plats and Boundary Adjustment Plats” (first reading) – This is a change to the Land Development Code. This will require an owner of a lot to formally consolidate two lots of record before they are able to put an accessory structure on an adjacent lot. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
8) An Ordinance Amending the Land Development Code Section 2-2 Selected Definitions of the Land Development Code (first reading) – This adds definitions “Consolidation Plat” and “Boundary Adjustment Plat” to the Land Development Code. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
9) An Ordinance Amending the Zoning Ordinance Chapter 1250 (Lot Coverage and Utilization) (first reading) – The text amendment to Section 1250.05 will require a Consolidation Plat when multiple parcels that do not meet minimum requirements on their own are used as one. The text amendment to 1250.06 will allow for the use of lots 50 feet wide, eliminating the regulation stating that if adjacent lots are held in common ownership, they may no longer be used individually. The text amendment to 1250.06.01 will clarify the regulations for the use of small lots greater than or equal to 50 feet wide, providing for reduced setbacks. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Morrison) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.

The cost would be about $150,000 with the Grant being $100,000. Motion to approve (Risavy), seconded (Krause) and voted all ayes to forward to Council.
13) An Ordinance making Appropriations for the Fiscal Year beginning the first Tuesday in May, A.D., 2020 and Ending the Monday Preceding the First Tuesday in May, A.D., 2021 (first reading) – This is the second step of the budget and appropriations process.
