Senior Living Revenue Bonds for capital improvements to senior living facilities.
Cunningham moved; Collins seconded a motion to approve Resolution 2022-22.
Skidmore asked for clarification of where this Resolution came from.
John Bradley addressed the question by explaining that it is called a private
activity bond that requires the local city municipality to approve it after having a
publication and public hearing for it to be tax exempt. The City has no financial
responsibility. By these actions the City is stating it would like to see Red Cedar Glen
rehabilitated by seeing several million dollars' worth of improvements.
Collins added that it was a refinancing of a bond that had been approved a few years
back in order to obtain a lower interest rate.
There was a unanimous vote to approve the motion with Dixon and Hayes absent.
Clary declared the motion carried.
The caption was read for Resolution 2022-24, a resolution authorizing the Handmade
Market to use the grounds of City Hall for its market activities.

Brown moved; Waters seconded a motion to amend Resolution 2022-24 by obtaining an
agreement between the organizer of Handmade Market and the City with the assistance of
City Attorney John Bradley as well as a $1 million dollar liability insurance policy to be
provided by the organizer and collect a one-time $200.00 fee to cover the rest of the events
for the year 2022, all to be completed prior to May 21, 2022.
Discussion on the amendment included whether the fee would increase as the vendors
increase. The $200.00 fee will cover the rest of the year and in 2023 it will be renegotiated.
There will be a Sunset Clause in the amendment that Resolution 2022-24 ceases to exist as
of December 31, 2022. The amount of $1 million dollars for the liability insurance was
recommended by our insurance provider.
The motion to amend passed unanimously with Dixon and Hayes absent.
Clary declared the motion carried.
l\11NUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
MAY 10, 2022

Discussion on the main motion included clarification the organization is for profit.
Concerns were expressed that a precedent was being set for other for-profit businesses.
Earth Day was the first event of this kind that had for-profit vendors on City Hall property.
A policy was being operated from to approve this event that was used for the Earth Day
event unaware that a code existed that governed this type of activity. Code overrides policy
so, this is legalizing what is currently taking place with the Handmade Market events. The
$200 fee falls in line with Parks fees. City Hall is not open during these events. It was
questioned whether these events should go through the Parks Department for approval.
Without objection, the rules were suspended to hear from Dallas Long, Assistant Parks
Director. All events that are held in the Parks go before the Parks Board for approval..
Fees differ depending on what is being utilized. There are vendor fees, per vendor, per
event. All events must provide a Certificate of Insurance.
Collins offered an amendment that as of January 1, 2023, this event should fall under the
Parks Department's rental fees and guidelines. The proposal would have to be presented as
an Ordinance since it is changing the Municipal Code.
Further discussion included there is no expense to the City during this event, portable
bathrooms delivery and removal are handled by the event organizer, and cleaning up
usually results in better condition than before the event. The event organizer is a
Hendersonville resident.
Edwards stated he would be in favor of sponsoring an ordinance perhaps with Collins and
John Bradley's assistance. Brown stated it needs to happen within the next couple of
months.
There was a majority vote 10-1 to approve the motion as amended with Cunningham
voting nay and with Dixon and Hayes absent.
Clary declared the motion carried.
OTHER AGENDA ITEMS
There was a vote on the appointment ofMahlon Hellman to the Board of Parks &
Recreation.
Brown moved; Cunningham seconded to approve the appointment.
There was a unanimous vote to approve the motion with Dixon and Hayes absent.

and found those restrictions do not prohibit a coffee shop.
Dr. Wayne McElhiney of 109 Belmont Circle addressed the Board with non-support for
Resolution 2022-21. His concern is the proximity of the business to the residential area and
the problems it would create for the residents. Concerns included the lights and noise from
the traffic, the outdoor music being played, trash pickup before 6 am, closeness of cars
passing on the access, the daycare nearby (increased traffic) and the name of the coffee
shop not being representative of the community.

CITIZENS’ COMMENTS
Mayor Clary read the guidelines for public comments.
Robert Little of 314 Raindrop Lane addressed the Board with three (3) issues/concerns.
• Drainage problem since 2010. The flood waters in 2010 broke through a rusted
drainpipe. In September of 2010 Mr. Little received an email response stating it was
on the shortlist to be repaired soon. Thirteen (13) years later, the problem has not
been resolved. Mr. Little passed around photos of the drainage issues.
• White line down Creekwood Lane-Why? It is a dead-end street. He was told it was
to slow traffic down. It was brought before Public Works that Scotch Street in front
of Whitten Elementary needs one and does not have it.
• Vietnam Vets and New Shackle has more than three (3) times the accidents than the
rest of the City. Businesses at Glenbrook were given a variance to build even
though they were in the flood plain. Mr. Little’s concern is when the City starts
approving Stop 30 rezoning, they will be given a variance as well as it is located in
a flood plain.
CONSENT AGENDA

ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS

Development Plan, to reduce the 15-foot Landscape Buffer Easement along the rear
of Lot 26 to construct a pool and spa.
Peterson moved; Roberson seconded to approve Resolution 2022-19.
The rules were suspended without objection to allow Timothy Whitten of the Planning
Department and the applicant to speak.
Whitten explained that the development of the subdivision was approved with a fifteen
(15)-foot landscape easement to preserve trees. Swim World obtained a permit for the
pool and spa with the fifteen (15) foot setback listed. During construction it was
discovered that the pool substantially encroached on the setback. Staff determined the

only option to move forward was to petition the Planning Commission to obtain a
variance by submitting a Final Development Plan Amendment with the encroachment of
the pool being seven (7) feet into the easement and the spa encroaching an additional
three and a half (3 ½) feet into the easement. The Planning Commission unanimously
approved but required it move on to BOMA. The General Committee recommended
approval to BOMA, and the HOA also approved it.
Brown, Hayes & Roberson voiced their support for the Resolution. Brown requested of
Planning that in the future swim companies be monitored more closely, whether that
was through inspections or otherwise, to follow the rules.
There was a unanimous vote to approve the motion with Phillips absent.
Clary declared the motion carried.
The caption was read for Resolution 2022-21, a resolution to appeal the Hendersonville
Planning Commission’s decision to deny the addition of Restaurant, Quick Service,
Limited to Coffee Shop, to the List of Permitted Uses for Lot D of the Bluegrass Yacht
& Country Club Final Development Plan.
Hayes moved; Cunningham seconded to approve Resolution 2022-21.
Clary explained that this resolution would be approving the zoning change.
Upon explanation Hayes was not comfortable with making the motion.
Cunningham moved; Peterson seconded to approve Resolution 2022-21.
Whitten suggested that the motion include to be approved with Staff Comments.
Discussion included on what basis did the Planning Commission deny the zoning
change. Whitten stated what he heard during the discussion evolved around the traffic
and noise from the squawk box generated by the use. The name of the establishment was
not a reason for denial.
The rules were suspended without objection to allow Cody Rothwell, Franchisee of Bad
Ass Coffee of Hawaii to speak.
Rothwell stated he and his wife were franchisee owners. Music would be played outside
on the patio but he had spoken with the HOA President of the bordering property and
asked him to give him a call if the music became a problem. Rothwell stated the
dumpster emptying is on a set schedule, and he will get on the same schedule with
Dollar General to not empty prior to six o’clock (6:00) am. The estimated car count is
250-350 per day. Dollar General has 600-700 per day.
Cunningham stated her support.

Waters stated he had never challenged a Planning Commission decision and he would
not be voting against the Planning Commission. He also stated his dislike of the name of
the coffee shop and felt that did not fit the community. Waters stated he would not
support the zoning change.
Hayes expressed his concern for the noise from the microphones and speakers and he
had been back and forth with his stance. As much as he supports business and
commerce, he stated he could not support the zoning change.
Collins inquired how many feet away from Dr. McElhiney’s property was the squawk
box. Rothwell stated it was sixty-seven feet. Whitten stated the drive-thru lane would be
closer than that.
Further discussion revealed that the squawk box is on the side of the building facing
Dollar General, not on the back of the building. There were no other examples that could
be recalled of businesses with a drive-thru that is this close to residential areas. There
was no traffic study done, there were only rumors of the daycare opening back up.
Collins supports Rothwell and his business, just not at this location.
Roberson stated he supports the original zoning of the Planning Commission and cannot
support the zoning change.
The motion failed 3-9 with Phillips absent and the following voting:
Aye: Cunningham, Dixon, Peterson
Nay: Brown, Collins, Edwards, Hayes, Petrelli, Roberson, Skidmore, Waters, Clary
Clary declared the motion failed.
The caption was read on first reading for Ordinance 2022-07, an ordinance appropriating
funds for the construction of a fire hall at 1342 Drakes Creek Road (Subject to approval by
the Board pursuant to Ordinance 2002-12).
Brown moved; Petrelli seconded a motion to approve Ordinance 2022-07 on first
reading.
Waters addressed Chief Bush asking how many stations currently have three (3) bays.
Station Three (3) has three (3) bays, Station Five (5) has two and a half (2 ½) bays. The
other four (4) stations have two (2) bays.
Discussion included reasons for having three (3) bays for the new Firehall Seven (7) to
be built. Chief Bush described each current station and how they operated and were
staffed and equipment housed in each. The difference in cost of building only two (2)
bays was $400,000.00. The third bay will allow response time to Autumn Creek,
Fountain Brooke and Durham Farms to be cut in half which would bring it closer to the
national average of four (4) to (5) minutes. Wards Five (5) and Six (6) will be serviced.
7
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
APRIL 26, 2022

The goal is to aid in safety of the citizens. The third bay would add service and reduce
response time to citizens. Sixty-three (63) % of 8600 calls last year were EMS related.
Cunningham noted that to build a partial bay in 2015 was $600,000.00. An additional
full bay can be built now for $400,000.00. She also noted the City has the funds to do
this as it stands. She supports Ordinance 2022-07.
Roberson supports Ordinance 2022-07 as well. Out of six (6) stations, three (3) house
ambulances. The county does not contribute toward the operation of the EMS. Station
Seven (7) will also service Ward 2 and Stop 30. If a third bay is built it would allow for
the Heavy Rescue truck to be put into service, equipped, and staffed. By utilizing the
Heavy Rescue it will save existing trucks. New trucks cost around $1.3 million. The
Heavy Rescue and Engine would rotate. The ability to move around in subdivisions is
becoming easier due to the engines now being built with shorter wheelbases. Low bid
came in at $5.27 million with a contingency of $75,000.00. The building of a third bay
will not prevent the Rugby restrooms from being built, having an adequate paving
budget nor hinder the ability to meet the Comptrollers suggested General Fund Balance.
Hayes supports the building of the third bay. He stated in the Ward 5 Townhall meeting
held recently at City Hall, the conversations concentrated heavily on the response time
for emergency services.
Peterson inquired if the $2.5 million bond from a couple of years ago was included in
the funds available; it is. He also verified that the City never received a guarantee from
Sumner County to help with the cost. Clary verified there was neither a “yes” or “no”
answer and he would continue to communicate with the County on that aspect.
Collins stated Ward 5 will be heavily impacted. She supports the third bay. Planning for
what has happened five (5) and ten (10) years ago needs to be discontinued. Planning
needs to begin for ten (10) – fifteen (15) years ahead.
Petrelli stated Public Safety being the number one priority has been her goal. She called
the question, but no one was in the cue to speak.
There was a unanimous vote to approve the motion with Phillips absent.
Clary declared the motion carried.

The following were considered and voted on as a group.

construction of Fire Hall #7 was posted on multiple platforms, bids were received on April 7th.

Six (6) bids were received for the construction of Fire Hall #7. The bids were comprised of a base bid and
an alternate bid. Bids prices, including the alternate option, ranged from $5,270,000 to $6,136,623. The
bid includes minor contingency funding of $75,000 and allows for a 300-day timeline, penalized at $500

bays.
FISCAL IMPACT: 3
The low bid by Boger Construction is $5,270,000, additional management and materials testing of
$85,000 brings the total construction phase to a cost of $5,355,000. A $2,500,000 capital outlay note
was previously issued for the project and has an available balance of $2,443,200.24 after encumbered

RECOMMENDATION: land at Fire Hall #5 to HCA for fair market value STAFF
REPORT
REPORT PREPARED BY: Jesse Eckenroth – Chief of Operations
BACKGROUND: 1
The city has six (6) fire halls, Fire Hall #5 is on Forest Retreat Road. Fire Hall #5 has over an acre of land,
the southeast section of the parcel is triangle shaped and serves no practical purpose for the Fire Hall.
DISCUSSION: 2
HCA contacted the city to consider purchasing a portion of the unused triangle shaped portion of land at
Fire Hall #5. Staff have reviewed the request and do not have any objection to selling said portion of land
as it is unused and alteration/development of the portion of land would have no adverse impacts on Fire
Hall #5. An appraisal was prepared by Lincoln Harris and fair-market was valued at $100,000 - $120,000.
FISCAL IMPACT: 3
Selling the property would net revenue to the city of the sale price, estimated at $120,000, less any
selling expenses.

STAFF
REPORT
REPORT PREPARED BY: John R. Bradley, City Attorney
BACKGROUND: 1
The city has been informed that the Colorado Health Facilities Authority proposes to issue a principal
amount not exceeding $250,000,000 of its Senior Living Revenue Bonds Series 2022, the proceeds of
which will be loaned to American Eagle Delaware Holding Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company which operates senior living facilities throughout the United States, including Red Cedar Glen on
Walton Ferry Road in Hendersonville, for capital improvements. These private activity bonds require
approval of the local governing body, after a public hearing, to be tax-exempt.
DISCUSSION: 2
Local government approval of the issuance of these bonds by the Colorado Health Facilities Authority,
after a public hearing, is required as a part of making these private activity bonds tax-exempt pursuant to
the Internal Revenue Code. The resolution approving these bonds expressly disclaims any liability of the
City resulting from the issuance of these bonds. The city approved a similar resolution in 2018 for Red
Cedar Glen. The current resolution approves issuance of bonds refinancing the 2018 bonds and providing
funding for new capital improvements. The projected amount of funding for Red Cedar Glen is not to
exceed $18,950,000.00 according to the resolution.
The Finance Committee unanimously recommended approval of this resolution on April 26, 2022.
