3299 N VERNON RD
Applicant: ALBERT POLOCOSER
Work Type: Right of Way Reduction
ATTENDANCE: Kellie Foster (zoom), Justin Crighton, Chad Zickefoose. Staff: Bob Hosmer, Kyle Tolbert
and Grady Porter (zoom)
REPRESENTATIVE: Derrick Estell
PUBLIC:
Staff/Rep: Proposal for a right-of-way reduction at Hawkins Mill.
Staff: ARC currently lacks the authority to approve right-of-way reductions under the new code, although the
old code allowed for it (and reductions for Phase 1 were approved under the old code).
Rep: The reduction is needed because two neighboring property owners, outside the subdivision, have not
agreed to acquire the right-of-way, causing delays in Phase 2 development but not impacting street or
sidewalk construction. Future development by these neighbors would necessitate dedicating the right-of-
way.
Staff: ARC (Chad) is supportive but will recommend sending the request to the Director of Public Works for
an official decision. A follow-up email will be sent to Dan Smith for an official response. Staff will be adding
the code back into the Land Development Code Update (Text Amendment).
ARC ACTION: None (ARC has no authority)
Result: Other

MINUTES OF THE Administrative Review Committee (ARC)
Springfield, Missouri
The Administrative Review Committee met in regular session in Development Review Conference Room
#199 and/or via Zoom.
ATTENDANCE: Kellie Foster (zoom), Justin Crighton, Chad Zickefoose. Staff: Bob Hosmer, Kyle Tolbert
and Grady Porter (zoom)
REPRESENTATIVE: Matt Pace
PUBLIC:
Staff/Rep: Request interpretation of the code regarding for a property located at 801 South Kickapoo
Avenue and within the Rountree 3 Urban Conservation District (UCD).
Staff: Interpretation, supported by staff is that if a specific use (like dwelling units) is not explicitly listed as
allowed within the Round 3 UCD plan, and it is prohibited. Detached ADUs in the Rountree UCD are not
allowed to be rented out to unrelated individuals. Building a garage with space above for guests (not
renters) might be permissible, but it cannot function as a separate living unit (i.e., it cannot include a full
bathroom or kitchen). Permitting would require consultation with Building Development Services.
Staff: Gave out information for STR's: Type 2: Renting out an entire house (100%) requires specific
permissions and goes through an application process with distance requirements. Type 1: Renting out a
part of a house where the owner resides (e.g., a room in the main house) is currently allowed. This does
not apply to separate, detached areas.
Staff/Rep: Discussion of an accessory structure like a garage to be considered "attached" to the main
house, any connection must be within 10-feet and constitute a common, comfortable part of the structure,
not a long hallway.
ARC ACTION:
Justin motioned to affirm the interpretation that the current code for the UCD area would not allow the
proposed usage. Chad seconded the motion. 3/0 Approved
Result: Approved

PUBLIC:
Staff/Rep: Proposal for Final Development Plan showing conformance with the requirements for parking lot

painting and repair shall be screened from view of all public streets and adjacent properties. No issues
were noted, however landscaping comments/issues were addressed.
Rep: Noted previous landscaping had issues - stating that the trees/landscaping caused vehicles to get
dirty.
Staff: Discussion of the finalization of landscaping that has been submitted. ARC is awaiting updates on
the landscaping plan. Futher discussion that ARC could approve the final development plan but withhold
issuing certificates of occupancy (COO) until the landscaping requirements are met.
ARC ACTION:
Justin motioned to approve the Final Development Plan for the parking lot expansion, contingent that the
landscaping for the entire site will be completed before a COO can be issued. Chad seconded the motion.
3/0 Approved w/Conditions
