Approved 8.6.25 <br /> 329 <br /> 330 Whitney Watson: Sorry. Yeah. <br /> 331 <br /> 332 Chris Johnston: I jumped in on yours, and I apologize for that. This is the first time I feel like we've seen this far <br /> 333 out, the 15 years and that sort of thing. If they,for whatever reason,fail to install a west campus <br /> 334 gym in 15 years,do they even have to come back and reapply for the conditional access or <br /> 335 something to be changed and updated to 20 years,or whatever the case may be, or is this kind of <br /> 336 a projection? How hard are these numbers? <br /> 337 <br /> 338 Cy Stober: The state law has very hard number in vested rights for a non-phase development of 7 years at <br /> 339 present. <br /> 340 <br /> 341 Chris Johnston: Okay. <br /> 342 <br /> 343 Cy Stober: So that's our vesting period for a conditional zoning case. We're extending that through a <br /> 344 condition, so at the end of 15 years they are vested rights for that particular use and that particular <br /> 345 construction have expired and, yeah, they would need to go back through the zoning process <br /> 346 because the condition would have been exhausted. <br /> 347 <br /> 348 Chris Johnston: Okay. Thank you. That's my only question. <br /> 349 <br /> 350 Lamar Proctor: All right. Statler? <br /> 351 <br /> 352 Statler Gilfillen: I'm reading through this. You or your department have made a number of comments in here. 1 <br /> 353 believe all of them are pretty much consistent that this is a positive direction. Technically,what <br /> 354 they're trying to do and approach this. Is there anything that I could've been missing that your <br /> 355 department has done that might be a conflict? <br /> 356 <br /> 357 Cy Stober: I would defer to Lauren, because she's more intimately familiar with the application, but, no, I've <br /> 358 attended the development advisory committee meetings. They've been very responsive to the <br /> 359 comments from the county and DOT and responsive to the community comments as well, but <br /> 360 Lauren, I'll give you the floor. <br /> 361 <br /> 362 Statler Gilfillen: What I'm seeing as an architect in the level of detail and what they presented, and what they've <br /> 363 gone through in the presentation tonight. They seem to be working very hard to conform and <br /> 364 make this work in positive ways. That's what I'm seeing in the paperwork and the presentation. <br /> 365 <br /> 366 Cy Stober: Lauren, in your opinion,can you offer your view? <br /> 367 <br /> 368 Lauren Honeycutt: That is correct. They did go through the development advisory committee and did receive <br /> 369 comments that required revisions. All revisions were made and complete before they moved <br /> 370 forward in the process. They're here tonight,and we're bringing it before the board with a staff <br /> 371 recommendation because of our assessment of completeness. I actually have a couple more <br /> 372 slides that could speak to that. I know we jumped into questions, but if we can kind of look <br /> 373 through those that speak to ways that this has complied with our requirements, including public <br /> 374 notification,which was sent out by staff, as well as signs posted, and public notification on our <br /> 375 web page, and then this is the staff analysis we're thinking about here. Staff did analyze that their <br /> 376 application was both in compliance with zoning atlas and unified development ordinance <br /> 377 amendments,the requirements from those, requirements for conditional districts nested within <br /> 378 that, and then also the requirements at large for schools. So,we looked at the comprehensive <br /> 379 plan and making sure that everything looks consistent. This one is being brought into compliance <br /> 380 with current zoning because the current use is only able to be through this non-residential <br /> 381 conditional district or another conditional district process, so that's why it's being brought forward <br /> 382 to bring that into compliance, and then they complied with providing environmental assessments, <br /> 383 which staff reviewed and determined that there was no significant impact,which is how we end up <br />
