 You have one and you're kind of like, this is how children are, then you have another one and you're like, apparently not. And for approval? Weirdly like me. Like, he's taking food, it's like weird that he's like, he showed up at my house about three weeks in and I told him I needed to get a room and check it right back. You know, he's been wearing one on the front like he's being chased by a devil. You need new shoes, so I was like, go and I'll pay for them and he showed up at my house and he was like, can't let me run his shoes and I was like, I don't have the exact thing here. He had gone to the store and gotten fitted, tried on like all these different shoes and gotten fitted. The same one? I mean, it's the same, you know, they were like, this is the shoe we recommend for you. Rage's leaving us. Like weird stuff like that. Like, we're just really similar, although he likes it. This is for Craig. You know, I've never run his shoes. But, um, but it's just different. Hey, Craig? Oh, yeah, it's Craig. This is for you? Yeah, that's all the stuff that we got in the meeting today. This is for you. All right. We can. We can get up here. Coming down, Brian? Yeah. Good afternoon. We will call to order the November 2019 City of Columbia Planning Commission meeting. At this time, I'd like to welcome all planning commission members, staff and guests. I would also like to ask that everyone turn their cell phones and PDAs to the silent or vibrate mode. The administrator will now proceed with the roll call. Ms. Hartz. Here. Mr. Tupper. Here. Ms. Mendel. Here. Mr. Dolphin. Here. And Mr. Cross. Here. We have form. Thank you. Applicants with requests before the planning commission are allowed at a presentation time of 10 minutes. This time should include, but it's not limited to an overview of the project, case history and any pertinent meetings held regarding the request. This time also includes all persons presenting information on behalf of the applicants such as attorneys, engineers and architects. This time limit does not include any questions asked by planning commission or staff regarding requests. Members of the general public are given the opportunity to address their concerns in intervals of two minutes. The administrator has a timer and will make presenters aware of when their time has expired. The planning commission reserves the right to amend these procedures on a case by case basis. The consent agenda. The planning commission uses the consent agenda to approve non-controversial or routine matters by a single motion and vote. Examples of such item include approval of site plans, annexations and street names. If a member of the planning commission of the general public would like to discuss an item on the consent agenda, then that item is removed from the consent agenda and considered during the meeting. The planning commission then approves the remaining consent agenda items. The administrator will now read the consent agenda. Your consent agenda this evening consists of the approval of the October 7, 2019 minutes, as well as two comprehensive plan map amendments and zoning map amendments for pending annexation, which consists of 8550 Farrah Road and 2.69 Acres Northwest South Clemson Road. Your consent agenda also consists of items 4, 5 and 6, which are site plan reviews, which consists of 162 acres at 300 Clemson Road for a single family subdivision of 623 lots, a 9.64 acre subdivision at the 100 block of Wood Creek Ridge Drive, also called the Cottages, as well as item number 6, plus or minus 4.76 acres in the 200 block of Jacobs Mill Pond Road for site plan approval of 30 lot single family subdivision, as well as item number 7, which consists of 68.4 acres in the 400 block of Lockman Road, which is a site plan approval for 126 single family residential lots. And that completes your consent agenda for this evening. Do any commission members or guests today wish to have items on the consent agenda removed and placed on the regular agenda? Okay, I'd like to ask for a motion to approve the consent agenda. Recommend approval of the consent agenda as presented. Second? Second. All in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. Anyone oppose? Consent agendas approved. We will now proceed with the regular agenda. Your regular agenda this evening consists of one site plan review for 4,800 Broad River Road TMS 06200-0301 regarding a site plan approval relief and Mr. Chambers the plan development administrator is here to present the request. Yes, this is a request to be relieved from a condition of a previously granted site plan approval for the construction of a 120,000 laboratory for sled. The request was originally held heard in April by the Planning Commission and was approved with the condition that pedestrian access be provided along the public sidewalk for visitor to the visitor parking lot to provide those arriving by walking, biking or transit route to have pedestrian access to the gate. The applicant has requested that they be relieved from that condition citing safety concerns. They have provided a rabbi site plan that the sidewalk in which the pedestrian access was supposed to be provided from Broad River Road to the visitor parking lot is not actually a visitor parking lot. It is to some extent but it's a sled laboratory and there are very select people who will be coming there and it's kind of by appointment only. You have to go through a security gate and those types of security measures in order to come to this facility. So it's not for visitor parking. It's authorized parking. So from a staff standpoint, you originally received a case summary that I believe has been provided to you where it was originally denied but from a staff standpoint, we are recommending approval. I believe the applicant, the applicants are here and can explain their case further should the commission desire. But from a staff standpoint, we recommend approval of the request. If I understand correctly, originally it was denied because of the way it was. It was unclear with regards to the way the site plan was laid out. It looked like it was just a visitor parking area so that anybody who would visit the site could come there. You may have people that would bless there and for various reasons. However, being that it's a sled facility and the materials and the things that they keep there are very secure. There's a gate there so just anybody from the street just can't walk up to the facility. You have to go through security gates in that type of situation. And they've met with you since and? Correct. They have. Corrected that and worked with you on. Okay. They have. They've met with us and they've also provided, in your case, in your unpacking, there's a detail breakdown as to the security measures and why they've requested that they be relieved from that condition. And so since they've met with you and gone through all that, you're recommending it to be approved. Correct. Okay. Any other questions for staff? Just based on my understanding of this updated information and what you said that while philosophically the city believes in pedestrian access, this is in fact a unique situation where there are real security threats to an area that is fully enclosed and that there is limited access under any circumstances is my sense of thing. So this sounds like a, as I say, a unique situation where pedestrian access would not be applicable kind of as a general rule. That is correct. Anyone have any questions for the applicant? Okay. If there's no questions for the applicant and no more questions for staff, I'd like to call for a motion. I'll move that based on this further information and given that this is a unique situation with a real possibility of threats and problems with pedestrian access that we approve the staff recommendation to relieve this applicant from the condition of the previous planning commission approval for the site plan review for a 4,800 Broad River Road. Second. Any further discussion? All in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. Anyone oppose? Raid is approved. If there's no other business, call for it. No other business. An adjournment. Make a motion to adjourn. Thank you. All in favor? Aye. An adjournment.
