Resolution number 921-22 by Alderperson Mitchell and Pirella, approving the capital improvements program is recommended by the Capital Improvements Commission in the program period of 2022 through 2026 and adopting the program for implementation and I'll call on City Administrator Wolff. Thank you. Thank you, Mayor. I just wanted to kind of present to everybody this year for our capital improvements we did a little bit of a different process. We went through and really focused on the strategic plan. When I met with all of the different departments we basically tried to better understand what our needs were and what our wants were and we also developed that into our actual our future borrowing. So when we did this we also only wanted to really talk about the 2022 for capital improvements. We did talk about what the future projects are but because those change on a consistent basis we really did our focus on 2022 with the presentations. So every single department has gone through it every committee has reviewed and approved it. I've been told by multiple Alders and committee members that this process was a much more fluid and appreciated process because instead of me giving the committee 50 different projects to choose from and see who likes what we really just did brass tax and said this is what we need this is why we need it and here's the priority. In the future we're going to have what's called an EAM program module that'll be helping us to actually analyze and collect data so we'll be able to actually bring better data to the committee's capital improvements and such to be able to actually prove why certain things are prioritized and I think that's a better use of resources timing and funding being a good steward. So if there's any questions on the capital improvements plan for 2022 I'm here for you. Are there any questions for administrator Wolfe regarding the capital improvements plan? All right is there a motion to accept and send to the council? I'll make a motion to approve and send it to council. I will second that. Motion by Ryan, second by Marilyn. Further discussion? Seeing none. All in favor please state aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? Chair votes aye. Thank you for your support. Thank you. All right back to our regular schedule program 3.1 application for conditional use with exceptions by RLO signs incorporated to install new signage at radiant dental care located at 2905 south 12th street. Steve? Thanks Mayor. Patrick Lanz is here from RLO sign who's representing radiant dental care. I can't remember Karen's last name but she just recently purchased radiant dental care it had been a dentist for a number of years previous owner taking a look at some different signage options and what they came up with was the freestanding sign that you see before you. They believe that this sign will allow for more people to actually see it as they would drive north and south down south 12th street and being at the intersection of Wilson and the signalized intersection at Wilson and 12th street. So what basically they're taking a look at is a post and panel sign which is high density foam with sandblasted relief so there's it's a nice quality sign and they're looking to advertise the dentist to all the people that visit the early learning center and the high school and want some more visibility compared to what they have on the present wall. Sign itself is about 13 square feet stands about four and a half feet tall and is approximately 20 foot set back to the curb. There is a variance request the variance is typically the signs are to be 24 feet from the curb but if it was 24 feet from the curb it would be basically be in that sidewalk area. You can see there's quite a bit of green space between the back of the curb then you have the sidewalk so the sign itself isn't going to impact anyone from a location perspective so staff was recommending approval of the sign as proposed subject to the conditions and I can help answer any questions and the applicants here. Any questions or anything that you'd like to add or Any questions or motions? I'll make a motion to approve along with the staff recommendations. I will second that. Motion by Ryan second by Marilyn. Further comments? All those in favor please state aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? Chair votes aye. That's approved. Thank you. 3.2 application for conditional use with exceptions by brandily insurance agency to install new signage at their office located at 502 north 14th street. Thanks Mayor. Noah Brandel is here. Noah and his father Russell Brandel are the owners of the site as well as Daniel Severance is here who's a neighbor who I think is just interested to hear what is being proposed. So the Brandels had purchased this structure in 2014 that's located at 502 north 14th street so this is right at the north west corner of 14th and Pennsylvania avenue so anytime you're driving up to 14th on Penn you're looking straight at it. They've invested a significant amount of money to redo the interior and the exterior they added the windows that you can see on the pictures there's a entrance ramp and patio in the back they've done quite a bit you know significant amount of remodeling of the structure so now they've been there in a little while and now they're looking to install some signage and the reason they're here today is because they're requesting three signs and in the neighborhood commercial district you can typically have two wall signs what the reason why they're asking for that is you can see on the east side they want to take advantage of the location and how many ways the particular building is viewed from from Pennsylvania avenue and then both on north and south on on north 14th street. The overall amount of square footage is only 42 square feet so they are allowed quite a bit over that and with the three signs the east signs a little smaller at 12 square feet and then the north side and south side are at 15 square feet and they would have goose neck style lighting where the x's are above the signs to light up the sign so it's not interior lit they would have that goose neck lighting which would be another additional feature they're nice signs um aluminum alloy have multiple different layers in depth with lettering of the logo so it's just not a flat panel sign it's a an attractive sign so staff is recommending approval subject to the conditions and the applicants here as well as well as the neighbor. Any additional things that you'd like to add or? Yeah I couldn't have summed it up much better myself Steve um to thank you for that as for the three sides we just you know that intersection is very busy and we want to take advantage of just everybody being able to see it from all sides not only that but if you look at what the building looks like now I didn't include pictures of that here I just included the superimposed signs I think it looks actually a lot nicer with the signs and I think having them on those three sides just improves the general curb appeal of the building and lets people know what it's there for but uh it's about all we got yeah thank you. Any additional comments or motions? Hello I'm Daniel Severance I live on the um Penn Avenue but I live west of the insurance office and it's amazing what his dad did to that place because I lived there about 15 years before that and I took pictures of it when he was doing the whole gutting inside electrical everything amazing work and um it really needs a little tender loving care and he made it to an insurance office you know and then went upstairs but he did such improvement in that corner it's and then the signs here is like his son was saying it's pretty busy traffic pass so it's nice to have a little bigger signs and light up at night so it'd be nice for him and for people to know that the insurance office there is but um I got no complaints and I'm hoping his business gets better you know and I'm sure he's been really good but it's he is such improvement so thank you. Thank you Any additional comments or motions? I move to approve that building sure does look good I'll second it. Motion by Birland second by Ryan further comments seeing none all those in favor of approving please state aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? Chair votes aye that's approved. 3.3 application for conditional use with exceptions by Brandy and Nicholas Conway to operate Millie's deli and Sandwich shop at 522 South Pier Drive. Steve? Thanks mayor um I guess there's no one representing the applicants here for this one I can go through this if you'd like and the plan commission can decide if they would want to approve it without the applicant being here basically and and we've talked to them a number of times let them know about the meeting so they're familiar with that um so Brandy and Nicholas Conway own and operate Millie's deli and Sandwich shop in Kiel and they are taking a look at 522 South Pier Drive and 522 South Pier Drive is the property that has a it's a multiple condos uh first floor has anglers avenue and in the far east one and then residential on top so this is about it's a little bit more on the west side and they're looking to open up Millie's deli which is a new york style sandwich shop limited seating carry out catering options to the south pier and they provide customers a variety of sandwiches soups bread bowls desserts they're looking to have seating for approximately 20 people deli coolers soup uh soup warmers uh it really to really kind of have uh a deli that they would explain is almost like your grocery store deli um however new york deli is mainly where you get the best sandwiches made with boar's head meat and not just sandwiches but stacked high full of meat and fresh veggies um they they're hoping to acquire a beer and wine license so that you can have your sandwich uh and sit back along the river and they uh with the success of Millie's and Keele they are assured that this will be a great fit in the south pier area um they do talk about having some outdoor seating in the south pier you can have some outdoor seating but oftentimes that requires what's referred to as an encroachment there's the riverfront promenade but in addition to that there's about 12 additional feet that the city has for the tiebacks and stuff that are in that area to hold up the seawall so that's often an area that you see some of the other businesses utilize and they would need an encroachment to utilize that area they haven't had any signage staff can work with them on that um appears there's no uh dumpster enclosure we could work with them on that to see what's uh what they're thinking but staff was recommending approval of the proposal um usually the applicants are here it's up to the plan commission as to whether or not you want to table this or if you'd like to I know they were what's surprising to me as I know they were in a hurry I got them on here to get get them moving so I'm surprised that they are not here today so uh staff is recommending approval of the project and I think it's a good one to fill this uh vacant commercial tenant space in south pier yeah I'm comfortable moving forward as long as there's no major concerns um does does the outdoor encroachment is that included in this application or is it a separate document that they would have to come in separately they um from from an approval process it's kind of two different procedures but it would come back to plan commission um before it would go back to council so they would have to apply for that if they want to have that okay uh Ryan and Mayor just to talk a little bit more about the outside encroachment what they basically can't do is build like a deck where they dig into the ground but they can put a patio in that's what everyone else has done back there so it's usable property and it's a it's a good use for it cool and the reason for that Ryan because those yeah there's yeah there's like a retaining wall underneath the ground like three or four feet that holds it's to see what's springing out so but they can still put a patio I mean a flat patio out there so everyone does yeah anglers has um prohibition bistro so a couple of the other shannies out there so we encourage people to do just that yeah I think this is a really good fit for this yes any motions I'll make a motion to approve giving the benefit of the doubt let's hope nothing happened to them on their way here yes motion by maryland second by tray further comments seeing none all those in favor please state aye aye and even opposed chair votes aye that's approved 4.1 June 15th is our next meeting is there a motion to adjourn I'll make a motion to adjourn second motion by ryan second by maryland all those in favor of adjourning please state aye aye anyone opposed chair votes aye we're adjourned thanks everybody all right thank you that'd be a nice yeah
