Ewald said he has not received any input; available for questions; Angelou asked about the full-time position; can it be misread to being here for 40 hours a week; Ewald said it would be a requirement; said will be on-call weekends and evenings; Angelou asked if it precluded someone having an outside position; Ewald said in our Charter currently the position cannot hold any other public office of employment but does allow private practice; given the workload, it is less likely today than it was in 1987; cannot take Gahanna criminal cases since he is the prosecutor as well; Leeseberg said he is not suggesting a 9-5 position; Angelou said there are things that may be confusing about that; Ewald said under state mandate, anything below 25-30 hours is considered part-time; that is not what it is now; average hours are about 52.5 hours/week; the amount of workload, the framers of Charter wanted to allow Council the flexibility; Westerville has a part-time City Attorney who is appointed and gives a $500,000 outside legal counsel budget; Metzbower said it is a salary position; Ewald said the pay does not increase at all; OPERS cannot be increased during the term; not concerned about that; concerned that our code City of Gahanna Page 1 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 accurately reflects what our positions are doing and the future people who run for the position are aware of the hours needed; McGregor sees this as the City Attorney being the quarterback and said does not know that we need a full-time quarterback; we need those people in a specialized area; Angelou said we need a manager in that position; Ewald said it is more of a legal portfolio manager; there are things we can handle internally; this is not a move, this is a reclassification of what is currently being done; we have two prosecutors on-site for Thursday and we also have someone outside that prepares; took over interns from the law schools; we are getting free legal support; need someone to support them; we also brought in a part-time paralegal; need someone here more than part-time hours to manage; in addition to the meetings required; Mayor Kneeland said with the new direction we are heading and goals; we are keeping this position very busy; to really reflect the real job, this is an accurate reflection; does not see us doing anything but getting busier; a lot of things will be dealt with in-house; gives us an easier shot of getting things done; supports the idea; Larick asked about the definition and impacts to benefits; Teal said looked into the Affordable Care Act; not everything is set in stone; there are exclusions for elected officials though; Larick confirmed by law, it does not impact the current requirements; Ewald said he exceeds the threshold and has no intention of asking for benefits; McGregor asked in 143.05, the compensation will be paid for outside services; asked if Council has a say on who those are and that pay; Ewald said Council would have to appropriate the funds; Larick said the statement now seems more generic; Angelou asked if the funds can be transferred; Ewald said not outside of the department; funds would need to be appropriated for each budget cycle; Larick confirmed funds in Parks could not be allocated to Legal; Ewald confirmed, not without Council approval; McGregor said in having this full-time, the salary would have to be drastically increased; this is setting us up for a big bill down the line; Larick said question is are the hours required; to be competitive we would have to pay a higher amount; McGregor said if you have an attorney with a private practice and they had a junior partner; they could mange that; Ewald said you could not have anyone at a practice doing work for the City as it is a conflict of interest; Angelou said the job would be the same job; it is just acknowledging it; the job is not changing or increasing in duties; said it may stop people from running; Ewald said does not know the outcome, but our code needs to reflect accurately what we are doing; Renner said we recommend we take this to regular agenda. RECOMMENDATION: Regular Agenda. ITEMS FROM THE DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT 1. Development Plan for the Junkermann property City of Gahanna Page 2 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 ORD-0053-2016 TO ACCEPT THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE JUNKERMANN PROPERTY TO ALLOW COLUMBIA GAS OF OHIO TO ESTABLISH A NEW TRAINING CENTER COMPLEX AND TO AUTHORIZE THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS TO SATISFY THE JUNKERMANN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT; AND TO DECLARE AN EMERGENCY. Jones said has an acceptable development plan; the property is about 29 acres located in the Commerce District; have a current development agreement that expires in June 2016; the agreement poses three scenarios; they can sell the property and pay the City; they can give the property back to the City; or they can partner to go through with a Acceptable Development Plan; this needs approved by Council; excited to discuss these solutions; have been working with the developer, Pizzuti Company, as well as Columbia Gas to create a training and education center in 18.5 acres; the proposal is to construct an almost 30,000 square foot training facility; will be a great opportunity for our City; we are very pleased they have chosen Gahanna; we have pulled in Mifflin Fire; they are very excited about this project and the training opportunities; with this user in mind, Value Recovery Group (VRG) and the development department put together this development plan; would also allow VRG to donate back 8.880 acres to the City; there will then be 12.5 acres for future development; this is a really big difference from what is there now; we have multiple users looking at these spaces currently; the City will need to sell the developer .665 acres of Blatt Boulevard at a price of $15,000; is currently right-of-way; was going to be used as these are developed; property is critical to the Columbia Gas Training Center layout; will be used for an entry point; many moving parts here; will take multiple legal agreements to fulfill this; need a mortgage release, promissory note release letter, contract for real estate donation, and a real estate sale contract with the Pizzuti Company; this is what administration feels is the best plan they have seen; this is our best foot forward; requesting consideration; if Mr. Poe or Mr. Dugger have additional, they are also here to answer additional questions; Leeseberg asked about access; Jones said from Eastgate there will be an easement; Larick asked if there was a shared use possibility; Jones said has not approached the Township; there may be some security concerns; an easement would be required in either case; Mayor Kneeland said this has been a piece of property they have dealt with for over 10 years; this development will provide new jobs and unique training; it will also bring 1,000s of people each year to our City; this is really exciting stuff; up to now, struggled with what could go in this site; Jones said Columbia Gas was very interested in meeting with our hotels; they desire to be a good community partner; pushing this site because of the current existing Columbia Gas site to the southeast of the development property; generated revenues will go into our TIF City of Gahanna Page 3 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 account; no incentives being offered; McGregor asked the largest size of the property left; Jones said 3 acres; David Poe said this is a perfect development for these parcels; we will have about 12.5 acres left; about a 4 acre chunk on the northwest side and then a 8.5 acre chunk after; there is a stream that is near the Jefferson Water and their site; they have to protect that stream; will also have a road that connects the north and the south; McGregor asked if there was room for a small parking lot so the public can bird watch or something related; Jones said yes, as there are wetlands, would take some initiative from the City; Poe said have a map and are filing with the core; roughly 6.5 acres of wetland; Mayor Kneeland said will be for mitigation use elsewhere; Renner asked if they are at an idea of an estimated completion date; Jones said in 2017; they have mentioned 2200-3000 consistent flow of staff coming to the area for training; the location lends itself easily accessible to Eastgate or Taylor Road to get to all of their hotels; Mayor Kneeland added that this training is ongoing because of the compliance; we were not the only site being reviewed; we are fortunate to have this coming to us; Renner said it is really unique; asked if there are other regional facilities in the state; Mayor Kneeland said this is the only one in Ohio; Angelou asked the speculation on the amount we paid for the property when it would be given back in full; Jones said the evaluated benefits shows it would take over 10 years to receive 1.3 million in property taxes; that covers the 1.2 million dollars; estimated based on the construction time of the project; some of those funds will go to the general fund, some to the TIF account; Metzbower asked if the trainees would be considered earning an income here; Bury added believes it is now 21 days with a new change from Ohio Revised Code; Jones added this is now in Planning Commission; wanted to do this all at the same time; McGregor said the property we are selling for the $15,000, said the value we are selling and getting back in donation are not the same valuation; Jones said correct, we strongly encouraged them to buy the property; this was not in their original plans; did not want to build a road in that location; Mayor Kneeland said we have historically abandoned right-of-ways; with this we asked to be paid for the land; would not work for anything with them owning that area and those parcels; Angelou said this is exciting; Jones said there are timing considerations; Mayor Kneeland said believes it is important that we move this along as soon as possible; will ask Council to consider emergency to move it forward; Renner said he is ok with that. RECOMMENDATION: Consent Agenda, Emergency. 2. Shull Road Pre-Annexation Agreement ORD-0054-2016 TO AUTHORIZE THE MAYOR TO ENTER INTO A PRE-ANNEXATION AGREEMENT WITH CANINI & ASSOCIATES City of Gahanna Page 4 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 LTD. LLC FOR THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF A 13 ACRE PARCEL LOCATED ON SHULL ROAD SOUTH OF BROOKHOUSE LANE, NORTH OF HEADLEY ROAD. Jones said Glen Dugger (attorney) and Larry Canini (property owner) are here tonight to answer any questions; Mr. Canini is the developer; is a 13.5 acre site along Shull Road; will result in 10 single family residences; this project will bring a 7 million dollar charge on real estate; located just near Headley Park and Hannah Farms; currently home to one single family residence and a farm; did a zoning analysis; would have a proposed zoning ER-2; that is what is adjacent; considered an appropriate land use for the area; showed an on-site development plan; there are 10 lots that have been identified; Rocky Point Court would come into the development; this area is more rural; will have multi-use paths on both sides of the street; natural environment is being requested to be preserved; we have right-of-way along Headley Park; our engineer has been involved quite a bit to ensure the City's infrastructure needs have been met; developer would ensure Shull Road is maintained; did a cost analysis; identified several types; showed an annual total cost of $12,365; there are two street lights being proposed; considered park usage, trail maintenance, police service calls, street sweeping, snow and ice removal and storm water maintenance; estimated value of the homes will be $800-950K in value; annual net revenue is around $10,910 upon its completion after the estimated annual cost is taken; were advised legally to have 7 mill as a standard; may see something in the future; there is pre-annexation agreement before Council tonight; Dugger said he does not have anything to add; Schnetzer asked if the 7 mill is a fixed rate; Jones said the new community authority that applies this investment; they can determine if it were to end; they determine new fees provided; Schnetzer clarified the question; understands annual cost estimate is now; likely to go up with inflation; Jones said it is a flat charge based upon the evaluation; you are correct, the more values, the more revenue; Leeseberg asked for clarification on access to the road; Larry Canini said that is the existing driveway that serves the property; comes in and goes to the barn; is one driveway; that will then be used for access to lot 10; current home will come down; it is contaminated with asbestos; the cul-de-sac going in is not standard, is oblong; did a radius check for fire equipment; lots 1-9 will be services on that road; will be 50' setbacks; most are over an acre; will have a good amount of land; took into account the floodplain; wanted a walkout basement for some of these homes with that light coming in; believes the house price point is conservative; Leeseberg asked about the stormwater basin; Canini said have not gotten to that detail yet; probably can create a bladder in lot 10 that can collect; Priestas said would have to be accounted for the overall site depending; Larick said this checks all the boxes for what he would like to see; Jones said we would need a New Community Authority Board City of Gahanna Page 5 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 (NCA); a body is appointed by City Council; would create the jurisdiction and be the creator; Glen Dugger said he is an NCA Board member; appointed by a developer; allows the new community charter to decide who gets to appoint those board members; when this new community authority is created, all the members of the board will be appointed by the City; the type of NCA will have a more broad jurisdiction; not one developer driven; done so we can do this in other places as we go through this process; Canini said an HOA, may consider one resident of those new communities become part of that board; depends on size and scope; this is small in nature; Leeseberg asked about the curb and hill, asked if there was a concern with the drive; Priestas said in this location, it is fine; better than Brookhouse Lane; Canini said we looked at this in several different ways; trying to save the house in the original plan; Metzbower asked if the NCA would be City-wide; Jones said new residential developments would become part of it; some property the City owns currently would become part of the NCA; Metzbower confirmed it is not just this development; Jones said commercial properties that could become a part of it in the future; would need to negotiate with the owner; Mayor Kneeland said if there is not additonal revenue we would not be supportive; annexing residential is a loss up front generally; annexations will be part of that NCA; Jones said they have not petitioned to create the NCA yet; Larick said the agreement that is on here, asked if the NCA is a requirement or mandate; Jones said mandate that the owner petition for the creation; any future owners would be required to petition it; Mayor Kneeland said it is required by us if they want to annex; said Mr. Canini has agreed to enter into the NCA; Larick asked if it is mandatory that the NCA moves forward; Jones said yes; it is the developers commitment; the City has the authority to create it; owner would petition to be a part of it; Angelou asked what other cities have these; Jones said Dublin, New Albany, Westerville; Dugger said the law was changed in New Albany; the NCA was the vehicle the New Albany Company used for the new high school; was a way to add community facilities without a tax burden; everything new in New Albany is part of the NCA; they were the most aggressive and prominent user of the format; has worked reasonably well; when New Albany started it was the 18th worst school district; was a way to funnel money; Metzbower asked if the 7 mill was standard; Canini said this was a set number and standard; would be high on a commercial property; Jones said it is easy for us to differentiate the property based on the uses; think the uses correlate; from a development department standpoint, would not apply this to commercial; Leeseberg asked about a TIF on this; Jones said we are evaluating that; need additional items for that; Leeseberg asked if we have looked at making this a private street; Canini said they offered that service; was determined that in the best interest of future project, would not offer that; Angelou asked about the curbs and gutters; City of Gahanna Page 6 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 asked how stormwater will be; Canini said ditch system; if you drive through in Jefferson Township you will see that system; typical to what you see; that theme is in play in Harrison Pond along Brookhouse Lane; that rural feel plays better than curbs, gutters and 30' setbacks; Renner asked if a portion of Shull Road would be maintenance free; Canini said will be annexing that in and have discussed with Priestas; Dugger said the annexation law that was redone in 2000, included that the City accepts responsibility for a segmented piece; the City accepts that responsibility; development department negotiated so it would be in an acceptable format; discussed with City Engineer what would need done; not obligated to re-build the road with street-lights; it is very specific as to what that needs; McGregor asked who will maintain the center of the cul-de-sac; Canini said would be in the HOA; that along with the island and modified cul-de-sac; Larick asked if that also goes with water retention; Canini said yes, that is not an unusual request anymore; most likely will manage this long-term; McGregor asked if there was a path around; Jones said there is; Euton said we would like wider trails regionally but this is a residential trail; Canini said asphalt works for this area; Leeseberg confirmed we have water and sewer in part of the annexation; Dugger said it would need extended; McGregor asked if this was the indian mound; Dugger and Canini confirmed it is north of the property; is a dedicated historical area. RECOMMENDATION: Regular Agenda. ITEMS FROM THE DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION 1. Wine Guy Service Proposal ORD-0055-2016 Euton said the owner of the Wine Guy has recently changed; owner has officially inquired about using the pergola at Creekside for service to the business; has been discussed for a number of years with previous owner; discussed with staff and Mayor Kneeland, there have been no objections; have put together a draft service agreement; our law department has it now to work into our format and new language; would propose to substitute the final agreement as we are still working on final terms; wanted the opportunity to talk with Council about concerns and conditions there may be to get a final agreement; agreement is for a 3 year base and 1 year renewal after that; is a revenue sharing agreement; will cap at 12%; agreement is only on food sales; advised against alcohol sales by City Attorney; the pergola would always be open to citizens and would not be an exclusive use premises for the Wine Guy; would just allow them the ability to service folks in that area; looking at the opportunity; possibly would open up City of Gahanna Page 7 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 visitation to Creekside; have had a few questions from Council; located with that 20'x20' pergola; liquor control requires it be a continuation of his premises; the liquor control map would show the walkway to the pergola part of liquor map; would not be able to fill with tables and planters; would be written into the lease that the premise may be owned by the Wine Guy per liquor permit, it would stay as is today; want the pergola back for the Blues and Jazz Festival; may modify the lease to show that the City can use the pergola for City events as needed; was also asked about another restaurant serving in the area; said in terms of alcohol, no one else could serve; no one has approached them in that way as of today; Council inquired about how you would know that the area can be used by the public; suggested a sign or something of that nature; believes the owner has the best intention; asking consideration for the lease agreement; feels it is a good thing for that area; would add a nice element to Creekside; Leeseberg concerned with liquor control; want to make sure legal is comfortable; Ewald said the City cannot profit from the sale of alcohol; Leeseberg asked how we will track sales; Euton said the owner has a plan; has a plan to develop a pergola menu and selection; we reserve the right to look at audits or receipts; Leeseberg said possible accounting nightmare; Euton said he does not see any concerns there, would just monitor as needed; Larick asked about the complexity; may not be a City issue; feels like a high risk issue because of the intensity of liquor laws and enforcement; there is discussion of the blockage around; a lot of complexity he is concerned with; is it possible for someone to purchase and carry out unopened and sit in one of our spaces; Ewald said as long as it remains unopened; Euton said would be no different than his outdoor patio; do not have any revenue sharing agreements with any business at Creekside; this is new to us; the owner was not interested in doing a square foot lease; does not know if it will be property; was concerned about his investment and his agreement timeframe; Teal said believes Larick is referring to the district; does not believe we have that without a permit; Larick said that is what this is; we get into enforcement and risks; Mayor Kneeland said same thing with the space rented outside currently; Larick said very different as that is fenced off; Angelou said will they be asking to serve folks as they sit there; Euton said yes; McGregor asked if they can move the tables there; Euton said the public does it all the time now; Larick said the entertainment district is different; this is a singular park and facility; understands we cannot carry open containers; asked if we can allow a sale to occur unopened; opens that up to Local Cantina and Barrell and Boar; McGregor said they cannot sell carryout without a specific permit; Angelou said Wine Guy has that permit; Larick said the context of Creekside as an area, it is much simpler; talking about a singular area; Euton said we would have to provide the enforcement and regulation if we provided such a permit; would lose control in that scenario; Larick City of Gahanna Page 8 Committee of the Whole Meeting Minutes May 9, 2016 said that would be part of a facility; Leeseberg said we have a cost and labor with no revenue; Larick said believes there is a better way; we have an area of town we want more people to be in; McGregor asked if the path would have to be marked; Euton said no, but he has to control it; no different than what there is there today; an employee would have a cash register there with employees and coolers in the pergola; it would be staffed and different than there is today; McGregor said the average person would not feel welcome there; even if the sign says they are; Larick said there is an equity concern; one business with the best visibility that is cut off and does not have this option; does not believe from a governmental standpoint we should put someone at a disadvantage; something that is a concern; Larick said gets having more activity; Leeseberg asked Chief Murphy his thoughts; Chief Murphy said it is a liquor control issue; right now we are not having any issues; up to the liquor control owner; we can support it, there will be some challenges; does not see this as a negative thing from a control perspective; is the liquor of the Wine Guy and they are the ones selling; Angelou confirmed the outside patio space is rented on a monthly basis; Jones said annual fee but charged for 4 months of use; May through August possibly; Teal said it depends business to business and is calculated afterwards for the months of use; McGregor asked if they are not paying for it all year why they do not have to move their stuff off; Jones said they have rights; they're leasing it but only paying for a portion; have rights for the easement; was negotiated that way in 2006; Renner said interesting experiment; is a public area; want to make sure people will not feel they cannot go to this public spot; when you read it, the owner is discussing planters; another issue is what we want for Creekside; trying to drive use down to Creekside; asked if this was the experiment; possible to shorten the agreement; Euton suggested we have the opportunity to define the agreement and bring in Mr. Shaffer; Mayor Kneeland said he had to remind himself to create an entertainment district there; shared the same concerns of the complexity; when this will be really active is Friday and Saturday night; not going to have families down there in its prime time; Angelou suggested some type of trail; Leeseberg suggested we do this year at no cost and then enter into the 3 year agreement afterwards; that is a trial run; Council agreed to have the owner present next Committee meeting; will not introduce at this time; Euton asked for further concerns; Leeseberg said the delineation should be as little as possible; and to see the controls and what they are and how they are laid out.
