MINUTES OF THE PUBLIC HEARING
HELD ON MONDAY, APRIL 16, 2018
AT 200 HIGHLANDS BOULEVARD DRIVE
REGARDING A PROPOSED TEXT AMENDMENT
PERTAINING TO USES SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITED
IN THE R-1 SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT
Mayor David L. Willson called the Public Hearing of the Board of Aldermen to order at
7:00 p.m.
Roll call showed those present were Alderman Clement, Alderman Nolte, Alderman Hamill,
Alderman Ottenad, Alderman Baumann, Alderman Diehl, Mayor Willson and Attorney Gunn. A
quorum was present.
The following notice of the public hearing was then read:
“The City of Manchester Board of Aldermen shall hold a public hearing on
Monday, April 16, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. at the Manchester Police Facility,
200 Highlands Boulevard Drive, to consider the following:
CASE #18-TXT-001 Fontbonne University proposes a
Zoning Text Amendment to Article V or Chapter 405 of
the Code of Ordinances pertaining to uses specifically
prohibited in the R-1 Single Family Residential District.”
Mayor Willson advised that first the proponents would speak, then the opponents, and
comments from the public, followed by questions from the members of the Board of Aldermen or
the City staff.
Planning, Zoning, and Economic Development Director Melanie Rippetoe spoke as a
proponent. She stated that the text amendment is proposed by Fontbonne University and it is
eliminating colleges and universities from the prohibited uses from the R-1 Single Family
Residential zoning district. They are allowed in the section prior as a Special Use; however, there is
a bit of confusion with the language with being specifically prohibited in the next section. This is
being proposed to eliminate that text.
City Attorney Gunn read a provision in the permitted uses which states: “Public schools
kindergarten, elementary, secondary, and collegiate and other not-for-profit educational institutions
having a curriculum the same as ordinarily given in such public schools, provided such satisfies all
requirements of the BOCA Code, the other Ordinances of the City of Manchester and the
requirements of the West County EMS and Fire Protection District, or its equivalent, as such may,
Public Hearing: Text amendment regarding permitted uses in the R-1 District - 04/16/2018
Page 1
from time to time, be in effect.”, so that is a recognized specially permitted use in the R-1 Zoning
District, but under specially prohibited it says colleges or universities. Colleges and Universities in
his opinion are specially permitted under the provision that he just read. He would think it is about
other colleges or universities that didn’t have a curriculum. That is where the confusion is and staff
felt it should be clarified as a part of the application by Fontbonne University, so that is why this
text amendment is being proposed.
There were no opponents, no comments from the public, and no comments from the Board
of Aldermen.
Alderman Clement stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended this text
amendment to the Board of Aldermen.
Mayor Willson closed the public hearing at 7:04 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

high schools. This text amendment will change the allowance for colleges and universities, in
addition to high schools. It also changes the number of scoreboards, there is a maximum of three
scoreboards allowed, one per field. Additionally, staff included the requirement that all sign permits
associated with scoreboards shall require approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
There were no opponents and no comments from the public.
Alderman Ottenad asked about the buffering within 100 feet, whether that is something
being added or whether that is something included before.

Director Rippetoe answered it has been in the Code and had not been changed.
Alderman Ottenad wondered how many properties are by Fontbonne that would be within
100 feet.
Director Rippetoe answered she is not sure because nothing is definite. They will have to
come back to the Planning and Zoning Commission for review when they are ready to install the
scoreboards.
Alderman Hamill wanted to clarify if the scoreboards faced the building and not the
residents. Director Rippetoe agreed with Alderman Hamill.
Alderman Clement stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended this text
amendment to the Board of Aldermen.
Mayor Willson closed the public hearing at 7:07 p.m.

Mayor David L. Willson called the Public Hearings of the Board of Aldermen to order at

Roll call showed those present were Alderman Clement, Alderman Nolte, Alderman Hamill,
Alderman Ottenad, Alderman Baumann, Alderman Diehl, Mayor Willson and Attorney Gunn. A
quorum was present.
The following notices of the public hearings were then read:
“The City of Manchester Board of Aldermen shall hold a public hearing on
Monday, April 16, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. at the Manchester Police Facility,
200 Highlands Boulevard Drive, to consider the following:
CASE #18-SUP-001 – Fontbonne University, owner under
contract, is seeking approval of a Special Use Permit for a

contract, is seeking approval of a Special Use Permit for
athletic fields associated with the University to be located at

Zoning District.”
Mayor Willson advised that first the proponents would speak, then the opponents, and
comments from the public, followed by questions from the members of the Board of Aldermen or
the City staff.
Mr. Mike Pressimone, President of the University, said he sees this as an important
secondary West County facility for the University; it does not replace their home in Clayton. In
Clayton there are no playing fields, so this would give them an opportunity to have a place for home
sports, and also to create some vibrant educational programs that serve more of the West County
marketplace. Through their strategic planning process, and working with the Planning and Zoning
Commission, they believe they have developed a good plan to create a very vibrant educational
enterprise and an athletic home for Griffin sports here in Manchester.
There were no opponents, no comments from the public, and no comments from the
members of the Board of Aldermen.
Alderman Clement stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission forwarded these
requests to the Board of Aldermen with their recommendation.

MINUTES OF THE PUBLIC HEARING OF
MONDAY, APRIL 16, 2018
AT 200 HIGHLANDS BOULEVARD DRIVE
REGARDING A SPECIAL USE PERMIT REQUEST
FOR A MICROBREWERY TO BE LOCATED AT
14336 MANCHESTER ROAD
Mayor David L. Willson called the Public Hearing of the Board of Aldermen to order at
7:12 p.m.
Roll call showed those present were Alderman Clement, Alderman Nolte, Alderman Hamill,
Alderman Ottenad, Alderman Baumann, Alderman Diehl, Mayor Willson and Attorney Gunn. A
quorum was present.
The following notice of the public hearing was then read:
“The City of Manchester Board of Aldermen shall hold a public hearing on
Monday, April 16, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. at the Manchester Police
Facility, 200 Highlands Boulevard Drive, to consider the following:
CASE #18-SUP-003 – Montana Hilti, on behalf of Nico
Properties II LLC, owner, is seeking approval of a microbrewery
to be located at 14336 Manchester Road, in the PBD Planned
Business Development District.”
Mayor Willson advised that first the proponents would speak, then the opponents, and
comments from the public, followed by questions from the members of the Board of Aldermen or
the City staff.
Speaking as the proponent, Mr. Montana Hilti said he lives in Ballwin. He has a passionate
drive to see where this endeavor can go. He thinks bringing a microbrewery to the Manchester area
will bring people in from around the St. Louis area and abroad, and he hopes to talk with other
businesses in the area as well. It will be a family-friendly business, open seven days a week. Right
now there are about 65 breweries in the St. Louis area, including a new one in Ellisville, a new one
in Town and Country, and another coming to Valley Park.
Public Hearing: Special Use Permit Request for a microbrewery 04/16/2018
Page 1
Mr. Gerald Arbini, owner and operator of Sallies Cake and Candies, is located adjacent with
the property of the proposed microbrewery. He said he is not concerned about the microbrewery,
but he is concerned about the parking. He said there are 8100 square feet, which would call for 81
parking places, right now there are 42 spaces, four of which are on a designated alley. He
mentioned that recently the bridal store next door had 11 cars on their parking lot, and he is
concerned about what will happen during peak hours, especially on Saturday, when the bridal shop
also has their busiest time.
Mr. Frank Yokum, commercial real estate broker, addressed the 40 parking spots which
were previously approved by the City. He said that most of the time there is hardly anyone at the
bridal shop next door, but they are busy on Saturday. He stated that the other neighbors next door
are parking illegally on their lot; the car repair place next door has consistently been parking cars on
their property. In regard to the 40 spots previously approved by the City, he thinks the City is in
compliance with that.
Alderman Clement asked if staff has been aware of the parking concern.
Director Rippetoe said this is the first she has heard of this, and this meets parking
regulations; she added that often there is not anyone parking at the bridal shop. She stated she will
look into this, but she was unaware there was a problem.
Alderman Clement asked that the parking situation be discussed
City Attorney Patrick R. Gunn read the special conditions which are part of the Ordinance:
“1. Holder’s hours of operation shall be limited to 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Monday
through Friday; 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Saturday; and 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight
Sunday.
2. Holder’s strict compliance with all applicable Federal, State and City of Manchester
statutes and ordinances.
3. Holder permitting access to the Site by the City of Manchester at all times
requested so as to confirm compliance under Paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Section
Five.”
Mr. Hilti said the conditions were acceptable; however, they would not be open to the public
until noon; they would have employees at the microbrewery at 7:00 a.m. for the purpose of brewing
beer.
There was discussion about parking spaces, and Attorney Gunn stated that parking is an
Ordinance requirement.
Alderman Ottenad said she understands there will be three to five full-time employees, part-
time employees, and customers, and she is concerned about the parking. She asked how many
customers Mr. Hillti would expect at a time.
Mr. Hilti said that as a rough estimate, but in the beginning, he would guess 50.

Attorney Gunn suggested that maybe the employees could park off-site.
Mr. Hilti said the full-time employees would likely be there early in the morning doing the
brewing. He stated his proposed hours are to be open at noon Monday through Friday, but they
would be there at 7:00 a.m. to brew.
Alderman Clement stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission forwarded this Special
Use Permit Request to the Board of Aldermen with their recommendation.

investigation and present the case for federal prosecution.
