CLOSING AND ABANDONING 700 FEET OF CAMPBELL DRIVE. CITY OF JACKSONVILLE REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 2, 2003 7:00 P.M. – 7:58 P.M. Mayor Swaim opened the pubic hearing at approximately 7:03 p.m. He stated that the 700 ft. section of Campbell Drive to be closed is located between Redmond Road and Main Street. He explained that Lomanco owns both sides of the Street and is proposing to expand their operation. He invited comment from the audience. Mr. Tommy Bond stated that the purpose of expansion is to allow Lomanco to connect their facilities located on both sides of the Street and improve operations. Mayor Swaim noted that Lomanco has purchased approximately 75% of the property located on Campbell Drive and owns the affected property, adding that there are no other establishments in the area that would require access from the portion of Street being proposed for closure. Alderman Stroud stated that he would be pleased to see a local owner for the mini-warehouses, expressing his past concerns for maintenance of the property. Mr. Bond added that there are plans to improve the area drainage, estimating cost of approximately $200,000.00. Mayor Swaim closed the public hearing at approximately 7:08 p.m. CONSENT AGENDA: WATER DEPARTMENT: WASTEWATER DEPARTMENT: POLICE DEPARTMENT: SANITATION DEPARTMENT: STREET DEPARTMENT: PARKS & RECREATION: PLANNING COMMISSION: ORDINANCE 1205 (#13-03) AN ORDINANCE CREATING JACKSONVILLE MUNICIPAL CODE §16.20.; AMENDING JACKSONVILLE MUNICIPAL CODE §18.72.; PROVIDING LANDSCAPING REGULATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS FOR RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL, AND MANUFACTURING DEVELOPMENT, SITES, AND ZONES; AND, FOR OTHER PURPOSES. Alderman Stroud read from a prepared statement, saying that the Ordinance has been called everything from the “Green Ordinance” to the “Ordinance that takes the green out of Jacksonville”. He added that it is ironic that the most stringent ordinance of its kind resides in Fayetteville, which happens to be the fastest growing economic area in the State. He related that the Ordinance is neither punitive nor would it cure the lack of planning that has taken place in the past regarding the vast acres of asphalt parking lots with no trees, shrubs, grass, or the gravel parking lots, unscreened Dempsey Dumpsters, or trashy storage areas. He stated that he hoped the Ordinance would instill a renewed sense of pride among some of the “harder featured businesses” owners, which might come as a natural result when new businesses comply with standards and raise the CITY OF JACKSONVILLE REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 2, 2003 7:00 P.M. – 7:58 P.M. overall appearance of the City. He stated that aesthetic issues regarding existing business could be address later with a possible incentive program that would reflect a more progressive attitude toward aesthetics in Jacksonville. He related that the Planning Commission is asking for a planning tool to guide plans regarding aesthetics, landscaping and continuity, which is currently left to developers. He stressed the need for a planning vision and set of standards, adding that without one the City may continue to develop in the same manner as with the corner of West Main, Dupree and James or Vandenburg Avenue at Hwy 67/167. He stated that in his opinion and to his knowledge, Jacksonville has the best Planning Commission it has ever had. He added that the Planning Commission is trying to do their job of looking ahead and planning for the future. He stated that if the Planning Commission of twenty-five years ago had their vision and if they planned accordingly, Jacksonville would look better than it does today. He invited Planning Commissioner Chad Young to address the Ordinance. Commissioner Young stated that the Planning Commission has worked very hard over the past year to develop the Ordinance using comparing cities of the same size as a guide. He stated that the proposed Ordinance is the least stringent in comparison, adding that the Planning Commission wanted a set of minimal standards for a more attractive Jacksonville. He pointed out that the Ordinance has been simplified for use as a result of the Planning Commission and City Council Joint meeting. He referred to a survey conducted by City Engineer Whisker, saying that the survey results were almost unanimous that streetscapes, green areas between and within parking lots as well as around buildings were desired, adding that this information was used in developing the Ordinance. He summarized the Ordinance, noting three major sections that offer guidance to developers regarding perimeter landscaping around parking areas, an interior parking lot standard and the building area between the parking lot and building. He related that the requirement of trees in the area between parking lots and buildings has been removed; pointing out that the Ordinance mainly offers guidance for large-scale parking lots. He stated that Wal-Mart is a prime example of a parking lot with no landscaping requirement and that Lowe’s is an excellent example of what the Landscaping Ordinance would require. He related that there is flexibility built into the Ordinance regarding a minimal number of trees and landscaping at the building front and offers the developer the ability to choose where landscaping would be created in parking areas. He stated that he feels the Ordinance will add value and make Jacksonville a more progressive City. Alderman Howard thanked Commissioner Young, saying that he supports the development of a landscaping ordinance. In response to a question posed by Alderman Lewis, Commissioner Young stated that existing businesses would be grandfathered. He added that the only time a business would be required to bring their establishment up to landscaping code would be if the business underwent a major renovation estimated at 50% of the appraised value of the property. CITY OF JACKSONVILLE REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 2, 2003 7:00 P.M. – 7:58 P.M. Alderman Wilson commended the Planning Commission’s work regarding the Landscaping Ordinance, agreeing that there needs to be some type of guidance in the landscaping area. He then expressed concern regarding the authority for review of the plans and frequency that developers may find a need to seek a variance from the Board of Adjustment or Planning Commission. He added that he also felt further input from the developers could be useful before adoption of a landscape ordinance. He stated that he firmly believes in a good workable ordinance, but cautioned that the City Council be careful not to adopt an ordinance that would be difficult to enforce thus creating more problems than it solves. He supported an ordinance that is easy to understand and administer, which accomplishes its objective. He added that he agrees with the intent of the Ordinance but has some concerns regarding some of the specifics. He suggested further meetings with local developers to gage concerns or issues that may not have been addressed. Commissioner Young stated that City Engineer Whisker would review landscaping designs during the site plan review, adding that there is a formula to determine the number of trees and shrubs regarding parking lot size. Discussion ensued and Commissioner Young answered that a waiver from the regulations of the Ordinance would be addressed in a variance format. Alderman Wilson reiterated the need to determine variance frequency. He added that anytime a developer may choose an alternate landscaping plan, that may or may not be more attractive, they would be required to seek a variance. He cautioned being too specific regarding requirements of types of trees or shrubs. He stated that any personnel authorized to review the landscaping plan should be in a position to make subjective judgment regarding the Ordinance’s intent without being forced to seek a variance because the proposal did not strictly adhere to specific types or exact requirements of spacing within reason. Commissioner Young stated that the Ordinance offers City Engineer Whisker the flexibility to work with developers regarding landscape design approval. Alderman Wilson stated that a variance process over minute details would be a burden to the developer and the variance board. He stated that he would feel comfortable passing the Ordinance on first reading and then offering City Engineer Whisker an opportunity to meet with the developers most affected by the Ordinance. Alderman Lewis stated that he supports a landscaping ordinance, noting the importance of good community planning regarding aesthetics and its benefits. He added that he has some mixed feeling about the Ordinance, agreeing that more time to consider all aspects of the Ordinance would be appropriate. CITY OF JACKSONVILLE REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 2, 2003 7:00 P.M. – 7:58 P.M. Alderman Fletcher related that his original intent in working through the Landscaping Committee were concerns for the older areas of Jacksonville that cannot be addressed. He noted that the process of age without proper maintenance looks bad, adding that gravel drives and dumpsters can be addressed and should be. He related concerns brought to him by citizens concerning property owned by the City that was not being mowed timely. He stated that if the City is going to place more requirements on its citizens, the City should address issues for additional mowers. He noted that prices for development within the industry have dramatically increased and that additional requirements from the City would only increased those development costs, asking Council to be conscious of that fact. He stated that he believes the City needs a landscaping ordinance but does not want to rush or push without examining all issues. He agreed that further input from the affected developers would be wise. He added that he would like to see older areas addressed in some way. He stated that he would also like to see a planned tree planting campaign and believes additional credit should be offered to developers who save trees. He then stated concerns regarding the proposed area size for the three major landscaping areas of commercial development, adding that a compromise may be more reasonable. In response to a question posed by Alderman Smith, Mayor Swaim stated that manpower would be a factor depending on the amount of commercial development at various times, mentioning other factors involving the difficulty of hiring a part-time person regarding an off and on basis. Alderman Smith stated that he would be in favor of passing the first reading of the Ordinance and delaying further passage pending additional input. Mayor Swaim asked if anyone in attendance would like to address the Ordinance. Chamber of Commerce Director Bonita Rownd expressed her appreciation to the Planning Commission and to Alderman Stroud for their efforts. She added that ability to enforce the Ordinance is important as well as the Ordinance not being a variance hindrance. She stated that manpower and feasibility issues should be addressed before adoption. She then noted that page four of the Ordinance discussing Preservation Goals is somewhat subjective, adding that it deals with gray areas and that there may be a need to be more specific. She then questioned the requirement of a ¾ Planning Commission vote to approve a landscaping plan and noted the importance of time for the developer regarding a variance process. Planning Commission Chairman Brannen noted that the Ordinance states that “It is the intent of these provisions to allow reasonable and appropriate flexibility for adapting landscaping design standards described in this article to the specific conditions of an individual site”. He noted that the development of the Landscaping Ordinance has been in process for approximately four years, urging the City Council to pass the Ordinance as written. CITY OF JACKSONVILLE REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 2, 2003 7:00 P.M. – 7:58 P.M. In response to a question posed by Alderman Wilson regarding the determination for when a variance request is passed from administration to a variance board, City Attorney Bamburg clarified that the flexibility standard was built into the Ordinance to not only allow flexibility on the part of the City Engineer but also the Planning Commission. He then answered that the Board of Adjustment would not be the Board to hear a request of waiver or variance regarding the Landscaping Ordinance. Alderman Wilson stressed the importance of having further input from the developers to establish clarity of intent and provision. Alderman Stroud moved, seconded by Alderman Lewis that Ordinance 1205 be placed on FIRST READING. Alderman Elliott requested clarification regarding Section Four under “Preservation Goals” regarding two conflicting statements addressing the removal of existing trees. Alderman Wilson moved seconded Alderman Ray to amend Ordinance 1205, to strike the following sentence under Section Four JMC 16.20.33 Preservation Goals stating “Removal of existing trees should be a necessity for building construction purposes only, unless said plant life is unhealthy and/or diseased. ROLL CALL: Alderman Elliott, Lewis, Sansing, Ray, Fletcher, Stroud, and Twitty voted AYE. NAY (0). MOTION CARRIED. Alderman Sansing requested clarification regarding square footage requirements under Interior Landscaping Requirements and Mayor Swaim stated that he believes it is meant to suggest that no interior planned landscaping should be less than 10 square feet and that that the total interior landscaping should be no less than 200 square foot. Alderman Wilson noted that the minimum requirement is 100 square feet, adding that if the developer wanted to establish his total requirement in 200 square feet areas he would be allowed to do so. He then explained that smaller areas carrying a minimum of 100 square feet would still comply with the Ordinance. Alderman Stroud moved, seconded by Alderman Lewis that Ordinance 1205 AS AMENDED be placed on FIRST READING. ROLL CALL: Alderman Elliott, Lewis, Sansing, Ray, Fletcher, Stroud, and Twitty voted AYE.

In response to a question posed by Alderman Stroud, Mayor Swaim answered that the City Council proposed an election to increase the millage because the pension funds were not actuarially sound. He related that since that time, one of the pension funds has become actuarially sound and the other fund is close. He stated that there is a possibility that half or all of the millage could be removed by a vote of the public. He related that the Pension Board of the fund that is actuarially sound voted to increase retirement from 50% to 65%. He then answered that the Pension Fund is separate from the current Lopfi Plan for Police and Fire, explaining that the fund would continue to grow from investments and insurance revenues along with fine monies collected by the Police Department. He stated that the funds are closed plans, which will eventually end when the last individual is no longer available to draw from the fund.
