Patrick Connell, Agent, Paul W. Harrison, Petitioner, (File No. 15-003200- ZA) requesting to rezone 305 W. 35th Street from a Mid-City District TN-2 (Traditional Neighborhood) zoning classification to a Mid-City District TC-1 (Traditional Commercial Neighborhood) zoning classification. Metropolitan Planning Commission recommends approval of the request to rezone 305 W. 35th Street from a Mid-City District TN-2 (Traditional Neighborhood) zoning classification to a Mid-City District TC-1 (Traditional Commercial Neighborhood) zoning classification. The Planning Commission believes that rezoning the property to TC-1 will provided a “buffer” between the property zoned B-C to the west (a single-family home) and the property zoned TN-2 to the east (also a single-family home). The Planning Commission also recommends a Future Land Use Map change from Traditional Neighborhood to Traditional Commercial. Metropolitan Planning Commission Staff recommended denial of the request because of the potentially detrimental consequences to the neighborhood if the property is zoned TC-1. The current TN-2 district allows the petitioner reasonable use of the property, including the ability to use the residence as a home and a bed and breakfast inn, and also the ability to lease the accessory dwelling. (Continued from the meeting of August 6, 2015). Recommend denial of the rezoning request. 9. Attorney John D. Northup, Agent for GW Investments, LLC, Petitioner, (File No. 15-003669-ZA) requesting to rezone 1020 East Broad Street from P-R-4 (Planned Four-family Residential) and P-BG-2 (Planned General Business- Transition 2) zoning classifications to an RIP-B (Medium Density Residential) zoning classification applying the “extraordinary and unusual” provision of Sec. 8-3031(D)(1)(a) of the Zoning Ordinance. -3- The subject property comprises 1.56 acres, and occupies most of a street block bounded by East Broad Street to the west, East Waldburg Street to the north and Park Avenue to the south. About half the property is zoned P-R-4, which allows 12 dwelling units per net acre. The remaining portion is P-BG-2, which is a commercial/light industrial zoning classification that does not permit residential development. The petitioner is requesting the RIP-B zone to allow development of a 69-unit apartment complex. MPC staff reviewed existing land uses and development patterns of the surrounding neighborhood to determine the most appropriate standards and land uses for the property. The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designates the property as Traditional Commercial, which is intended to allow for some commercial uses and residential uses that are compatible within the neighborhood. Staff determined it is the intent of Mayor and Aldermen to allow this property to have more development intensity than the predominantly residential-single family classification in the immediate vicinity of the property. However, some of the existing standards within the RIP-B district are not consistent with the surrounding development pattern. The “unusual or extraordinary” provision provides the Mayor and Aldermen with the ability to approve any uses and require design standards and other “special conditions” to ensure that district will be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood while allowing the increased density. Based on this, Metropolitan Planning Commission recommends approval of the requested rezoning classification from P-R-4 and P-BG-2 to RIP-B, applying the “extraordinary and unusual” provision of Sec. 8-3031(D)(1)(a) and including the conditions provided below. MPC recommends that the following uses, which are permitted within an RIP- B district, shall not be permitted on the subject property: 1) Rooming and board houses (Use 9); 2) Hostels (Use 9a); 3) Hotels, motels, motor lodges (Use 11); 4) College dormitories (Use 13); 5) Short-term vacation rentals (Use 14a); and, 6) Restaurants, sit-down, with beer and wine service (Use 65d). MPC also recommends that a condition be required that if the residential units are to be rented/leased, they are to be rented/leased by the dwelling unit and not by individual bedrooms or beds within the unit. Without this provision, bedroom rentals become similar to rooming/boarding houses, which are not recommended as a permitted use in the proposed RIP-B district. -4- If approved, these standards would apply to the general development plan which must be submitted to the Planning Commission for approval. If residential development other than multi-family is proposed in the future, it is recommended that the appropriate standards be developed at that time rather than to apply more urban standards (i.e., smaller lots size and lot widths) that are not in context with the historic development pattern of the area. (Continued from the meeting of August 20, 2015) Recommend approval of the MPC recommendation. PETITIONS 10. Acknowledge Receipt of Annexation Petition 140889. The City received an annexation petition for a parcel with an aggregate of 102.3 acres located on the west side of Georgia Highway 204 in the vicinity of Pinckney Road. The parcel is currently undeveloped and is owned by OTAMOT Land, LLC. The owner plans to develop a RV park on the property. The land under petition is contiguous to existing City territory and therefore can be annexed by ordinance adopted by City Council. As required by state law the County has been informed of receipt of this petition. Annexation is being sought by the owner to gain access to the municipal utilities provided by the City. The owner desires to gain access to these services on in-city terms. The cost of providing water and sewer service to the parcel will be fully covered by connection fees and service fees levied by the City for providing service. No action is required at this time other than acknowledgment of petition receipt. Consideration of ordinances to annex the territory and to designate City zoning for the territory will be placed on a future agenda. (A map is attached.) No action required at this time. ORDINANCES First Readings 11. Rezone 1020 East Broad Street from P-R-4 (File No. 15-003669-ZA). An ordinance to rezone 1020 East Broad Street from P-R-4 (Planned Four-family Residential) and P-BG-2 (Planned General Business-Transition 2) zoning classifications to an RIP-B (Medium Density Residential) zoning classification applying the “extraordinary and unusual” provision of Sec. 8-3031(D)(1)(a) of the Zoning Ordinance. -5- Second Readings 12.

TRAFFIC ENGINEERING REPORTS 16. Prohibition of U-Turns on Eisenhower Drive. At the request of the police department, Traffic Engineering has investigated the safety of reverse turns on westbound Eisenhower Drive at the intersection of Hodgson Memorial Drive. Drivers westbound on Eisenhower Drive are attempting U-turns from the left turning lane at the intersection of Hodgson Memorial Drive. The narrowness of the thru lanes precludes complete U-turns to travel eastbound on Eisenhower Drive without having to back up in the intersection and then continue to turn left to complete the U-turn. This 3-point turning movement violates the expectations of other motorists and regularly leads to congestion. -6- Traffic Engineering recommends the prohibition of U-turns for westbound traffic on Eisenhower Drive at the intersection of Hodgson Memorial Drive. The adoption of an ordinance will allow for the placement of “No U-Turn” signage on Eisenhower Drive at the intersection of Hodgson Memorial Drive. (An aerial map is attached.) Recommend approval.

PACO Horizontal Split-Case Centrifugal Pumps – Sole Source – Event No. 3561. Recommend approval to procure four PACO horizontal split-case centrifugal pumps from Carl Eric Johnson, Inc. in the amount of $275,038.00. These pumps will be used to replace the current pumps at the I&D Water Treatment Plant by Water Supply and Treatment. These pumps are used to deliver finished water to industrial, municipal, and residential customers. The new pumps are required because all four of the existing pumps are currently running to keep up with peak summer demand. Best practice would be to meet peak demand with three of the four pumps operating, with the fourth pump available to provide extra capacity for emergency water demands or in case one pump is off-line for maintenance or repair. The installation of these pumps is the final piece of the Crossroads booster station upgrade capital improvement project, which is currently nearing completion. This capital project increased the capacity of the building’s electrical power systems necessary to drive the larger motors of the new pumps. This is a sole source because this company is the only authorized PACO distributor for the state of Georgia. Also, the current pumps at the I&D Water Treatment Plant are PACO pumps. Installation of new pumps by other manufacturers would require significant infrastructure changes to the facility piping and base structures. Delivery: As Requested. Terms: Net 30 Days. S.S.
