City Council - Regular Meetings

CITY OF WEBSTER GROVES October 6, 2020 The City Council met this date in a regular session, via Zoom, which was available to the public via teleconference, at 7:32 pm. Present at Roll Call: Mayor Gerry Welch Councilmember Laura Arnold Councilmember Pam Bliss Councilmember David Franklin Councilmember Emerson Smith Councilmember Karen D. Alexander Councilmember Sarah Richardson A quorum was present. Also present: Ms. Joan Jadali, Interim City Manager Mr. Neil Bruntrager, City Attorney Ms. Katie Nakazono, City Clerk PUBLIC HEARINGS 23 W. Lockwood Avenue: An Application by Rob Goltermann, DCM Management Company, on Behalf of Elias LLC for an Amendment to the Existing "PC" Planned Commercial District to Allow a "Coffee Shop, No Drive-thru" Use on the Approximately 0.32 Acre Tract of Land Located at 23 W Lockwood Ave. Mayor Welch opened the public hearing. Mara Perry, Director of Planning and Development, gave a brief presentation (Exhibit A, available in the City Clerk's office). She stated that this is an amendment to a "PC" Planned Commercial district (See Exhibit A, page 1). It is a recent change made in the last two years. The rezoning was made in regard to a Planned Commercial development that would include a Regions Bank as well as an additional building. She reviewed the history of the site and existing conditions (See Exhibit A, page 2). She reviewed the Comprehensive Plan analysis (See Exhibit A, page 3-4). We determined in 2019, when the rezoning occurred that this was in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. We determined via staff that the request was a minor amendment that could come straight to City Council for review. The additional use they are asking for is a coffee shop, no drive thru. She reviewed the impact on parking and access and circulation (See Exhibit A, page 6). We would be keeping all setbacks and the building has already been to the ARB and through plan review (See Exhibit A, page 6-7). Mayor Welch asked about the retail marked on the plans. Ms. Perry stated that refers to just a preliminary when going through the new zoning a few years ago. Office is another use that could be allowed. October 6, 2020 Councilmember Bliss asked why there is a new category for coffee shop. Ms. Perry stated that there are other elements that could need additional parking. The way the zoning was put together was to assume a mix of uses. Coffee shop can be a higher intensity use than a regular shop and can have more of a traffic impact. Mayor Welch asked why no drive through. It is one of the things in this town that is missing. Is it us that discouraged it or the developer that did not want it. Ms. Perry stated that we discouraged it. The overall plan approved from Old Webster removed drive throughs because it is supposed to be a walkable, pedestrian friendly district. Council and staff discussed drive throughs for the bank and PC zoning, as well as the timing of this project. Ms. Perry reviewed the staff recommendation (See Exhibit A, page 7-9). Rob Goltermann, applicant, stated that the intent of this building is a small coffee shop up front and the back half for professional service offices. It will be a locally owned coffee shop with a nice outside seating area. Mayor Welch asked if there was an owner yet for the coffee shop. Mr. Goltermann stated that the owner is the person who will have the office in the back as wel I.

BILL #9133 - FIRST & SECOND READING Councilmember Bliss introduced BILL #9133 - ENTITLED: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING A "PC" PLANNED COMMERCIAL DISTRICT AT 23 AND 29 W. LOCKWOOD ON AN APPROXIMATELY 0.79 ACRE TRACT OF LAND AND MATTERS RELATED THERETO, AND REPEALING ORDINANCE #9042, and at the 2 October 6, 2020 Councilmember's request, the Bill was read twice, first and second times by title only, and placed on the agenda for future consideration of the Council. CONTINUED - Zoning Code Text Amendment - Parking Development Standards: Proposed Amendments Include Changes and Additions to Sections 53.020, 53.047, 53.057, 53.067, 53.077, 53.117, 53.157, 53.180 Through 53.189, 53.233, and 53.243 of the Zoning Ordinance in Order to Clarify and Update Regulations for Parking Development Standards in Residential, Commercial, Industrial, and Multiple Family Residence Districts Ms. Perry stated that she has no presentation, this was a continuation so comments could be shared. I believe I only know of two things staff needs to continue to research. One item Councilmember Arnold sent to me and the item Mayor Welch had at the previous meeting. Mayor Welch stated that she is still concerned about the 10-foot driveway and has an objection. Ms. Perry stated that they can bring research on that to the next meeting. We request that you hold this public hearing open again. I know Councilmember Arnold had some questions on storage and parking of commercial vehicles and we are going to research that. Councilmember Arnold stated that she would like to consider removing requirements for no commercial signage on a passenger vehicle parked at a residence. Council and staff discussed commercial vehicle restrictions. Mayor Welch asked if we distinguished the size of the vehicle. Councilmember Smith stated that they did. Ms. Perry stated that this violation occurs after hours, so it is complaint driven. We do get complaints about larger vehicles parked overnight in driveways with advertising. I was going to come back with what other cities are doing, looking at the definition, and confirming whether making a change impacts any other codes. Mayor Welch stated that a couple of us are really concerned about the 10-foot driveways. Ms. Perry stated that she will provide additional information at the next meeting. Mayor Welch stated that is fine, but 7.5 and eight feet have worked for most people in this community and I would like to stick with that rather than more concrete. Councilmember Arnold asked what is currently in place. Ms. Perry stated currently the Public Works code requires that the curb cut be at least IO and no more than 24-feet wide. We have found that people come in with plans and do not see that Code section because it is not in the building code and they would get frustrated. So, when we updated the building code, we added that to it for consistency to match Public Works. We have, as staff said to match the I 0-foot curb cut on driveways. You could get narrower if you had a Hollywood drive, but we have had issues with neighbors and fences. Other communities are having issues with people wanting massive driveways, so it is a balance. 3 October 6, 2020 Mayor Welch stated that she understands all of that, bul we are a historic community and this seems out of character with sustainability and historic preservation. All it does is create more water runoff and less green space. I am really adamant about this. Councilmember Franklin asked if the whole purpose was to meet the requirement for the curb cut. Ms. Perry stated that it was not. Our code says your car has to be on a paved surface. So we think of that as about the size of a parking space, which is nine feet wide. If you only have nine feet, and you have a fence on one side and a house on the other, you can't really gel your car door open. It was just a basic standard. I looked up other communities and most had ten feet as the minimum for a driveway. Councilmember Franklin asked what a ten-foot driveway does to enhance our community. Ms. Perry stated that it is a means of where a vehicle can be on a paved surface. Councilmember Smith clarified that this was also to get closer to County standards. Ms. Perry stated that all of the parking changes were to get closer to County. Some good requirements on turning radius, commercial parking, we didn't have any standards on them. What is a basic standard for what a vehicle can sit on, as cars are getting larger and larger. We have a lot of people with shared driveways that have worked for decades, but someone moves, and then you don't like each other. Someone puts a fence down the middle of it, or are tearing it up. A motion was made by Councilmember Smith, seconded by Councilmember Bliss, to keep the Public Hearing open until the October 20, 2020 Council meeting. Mayor Welch called for the vote to keep the public hearing open until the October 20, 2020 Council meeting. MEMBERS VOTING: AYES: ARNOLD, BLISS, FRANKUN, SMITH, ALEXANDER, RICHARDSON, WELCH NOES: NONE Mayor Welch stated that the public hearing would be kept open until the October 20, 2020 Council meeting.

Lockwood. Cc: Joan Jadali <jadalij@webstergroves.org>, Mara Perry <perrym@webstergrove... To Mayor, City Council & City Staff, What I like about this proposal is that at least SOMETHING is going to go into this unused vacant space. What I do not like about it is the same thing I didn't like about it back when Gerber Funeral Home was still standing. This lot is PRIME property right in the PRIME shopping & busines district of Old Webster. And what did we settle for? Another bank. We and this space deserved better. This city needs another bank like a hole in the head. And now, with all due respect to Mr. Golterman & DCM Management, what is he asking us again to settle for? Another coffee shop, when Clover & the Bee is right across the street, along with Old Webster's Bread Co, Parkmoor and Straub's, and not to mention nearby Starbucks, Einstein's, Boardwalk Cafe, McDonald's and gas stations. In short, Webster's coffee demand has plenty of supply! Instead, may I please suggest you use a little imagination and creativity to come up with a new idea that's truly unique, different, and adds real value to our community. I suggest doing some research with a few residents. They have lots of good ideas!!! PEACE.

We moved from unincorporated West County to Webster Groves in 1998, after our children went to college and began their lives as adults. We love our Clark neighbors and everything about our town! Webster is the epitome of the peaceful, neighbor-loving, welcoming small town and is the envy of thousands of communities in Missouri and around the country. It has grown over the years by respecting its citizens opinions while strategically adding businesses and carefully expanding housing and residential construction which improves the quality of life in the community. We would support a rational, thoughtful, responsibly-designed mixed use development, but the current proposal is the antithesis of Webster's values and well-earned national reputation as a welcoming community. Please do the right thing by reducing the size and scope and reversing the negative impact of this project. It is, by all measures, a horrible proposition as it stands. Webster Groves deserves better! Respectfully, Kent and Candy Stallings 408 Clark Ave file:///C:/Users/nakazonok/AppData/Local/Temp/XPgrpwise/5F6E3BDBWG_ DOMWG_P... 9/28/2020  Page 1 of 1 Exhibit D Katie Nakazono -Remarks by Visitors - City Council Meeting: proposed downtown development From: tony clawson <amichaelclawson@gmail.com> To: <citycouncil@webstergroves.org> Date: 9/25/2020 10:29 PM Subject: Remarks by Visitors - City Council Meeting: proposed downtown devtdopment Good evening! I'm writing in full support of the proposed redevelopment for a northern half of downtown Webster. Even without anchor tenants announced, this is a transformative project. As a current city resident looking hard at relocating and purchasing in Webster, this is exactly the type of development that pulls me and my wife to move. Creating a true "20 Minute City" with a robust city center will ensure long term stability and vibrancy. This goes a long way to achieving that, and I think the city will be even better as a result. I hope this "outsider" perspective provides some insight into attracting new long term residents, and the direction of future city developments. I look forward to watching this project unfold. Sincerely, Lauren & Tony Clawson file:///C:/Users/nakazonok/AppData/Local/Temp/XPgrpwise/5F6E6F4FWG_DOMWG_P... 9/28/2020  Page 1 of 1 Exhibit E Katie Nakazono - renovation in webster groves From: linda rutledge <maxandbertie074@gmail.com> To: <citycouncil@webstergroves.org> Date: 9/17/2020 1: 17 PM Subject: renovation in webster groves we are strongly opposed to the proposed redevelopment project in old Webster. The multi storied buildings would alter the charm of the existing architecture in the area. It would also increase the volume of traffic in the area, and greatly decrease the green space and cause danger to the wild life. We have seen deer, fox and other small animals living in this area.

My boyfriend and I have been in our home for 3 years and have grown to love our neighborhood and city. It is an affordable house for us at this time in our lives, and we very much wanted to be a part of the Webster community. As you may know, there is a SIGNIFICANT development proposed for the area east of our home, and below are the main reasons we, as Webster Groves residents, are opposed to this project: 1. Multiple 7 story buildings that will completely alter the Old Webster character and historical value. I cannot imagine the small business and restaurant owners of Webster would approve of this project, as they have all worked very hard to maintain the main st. feel without creating an overly commercialized business district! 2. Destruction of the current wildlife and natural landscape in the area to attempt to "create a natural area" So we want to destroy existing natural areas to make new ones .....? 3. As a Webster resident yourself, I am certain you have experienced the traffic and often unsafe pedestrian area on Rock Hill Rd. approaching the train tracks. The area is already very congested at Rock Hill Rd. and Lockwood. Many kids ride bikes, walk to school, and walk to a bus stop right at Rock Hill and Kirkham. Please consider voting down this project when given the opportunity and strongly opposing it along with our concerned group of Webster Groves residents. Thank you for considering this message. Have a great day! Hannah M.

I travel along Kirkham Road almost daily. Buildings towering seven stories above the street will totally change the feeling of the neighborhood. The addition of 8 townhouses where one home now sits at Rock Hill Road and Kirkham Avenue, would be hard to cram into that area. What would be the effect on Shady Creek and the brand new bridge over it? More underground parking? That would probably disturb the creek. Garage doors facing Kirkham? I like being able to walk from my home to see my mother at Sunrise (before Covid-19) and to shops in Old Webster. The density of this proposal would make it a more difficult challenge with more traffic. The density of this project would change the nearby neighborhoods of Webster Groves.

Our primary concerns are the excessive density and negative environmental impact of the current plans, which would plop an estimated 1,150 new residents and up to eight 7-story buildings adjacent to residential neighborhoods and Old Webster. In addition, the plan would decimate the existing wildlife corridor that follows Shady Creek. The developer has made it clear that neither of these problems will be addressed: they insist the density is necessary to provide amenities and affordable housing, and they value renovation of the Shady Creek greenspace as an attractive amenity for people over its importance as wildlife habitat. That part of Shady Creek may not make it onto a postcard, but many animals call it home and would have no place to go; it's past time to stop chipping away at animal habitat. In addition, many mature trees would be removed, only some replaced, with decades to wait until they reached equivalent maturity. We would ask you to walk down along Kirkham between Rock Hill and Gore, look up at those trees, and realize that in a year you could be looking up at 7-story buildings and the trees could be gone. Does this fit the character of Webster Groves? As for the density, it is disappointing to hear that the only way we can offer affordable housing and add public amenities is to put up with a development so wildly out of scale with its surrounding community. We were shocked to hear that only I 0% of the housing will be designated affordable housing. It's frustrating because there are so many versions of a more modest development project that we and, I believe, our neighbors could get behind. What about a couple of modestly scaled apartment buildings with a larger percentage designated for "workforce housing", a couple of modestly scaled retail facilities, and a multi-use outdoor facility for farmers' markets or small concerts? Perhaps another developer could come up with more creative plans that respect our environment, our history and our quality of life. We look forward to engaging with you further as the planning and approval process continues.

Mayor, City Council & City Staff, Assuming the weather cooperates and there are no more COVID spikes, Webster Groves' first ever, "Porchfest", will be held Sunday, October 18, from 4 pm - 6 pm, immediately following the Old Webster Business District, "Walktober" event from Noon - 4 pm that same day. "Porchfest" is an outdoor, walkable, free & fun live music event featuring 21 different music performers, spread out and playing from the front porches of 21 gracious & enthusiastic homeowners in the neighborhood bordered by S. Gore and S. Gray and including three connecting cross streets, W. Cedar, W. Swon and W. Jackson. Gerry, please know that I remain hopeful that your husband, Pat, and his "Rockin' Docs" combo can join us and play at your house. Please keep me posted. One important observation: I am a complete stranger to many homeowners in this neighborhood. Yet when I was going door-to-door and inquiring if they had interest in sharing their front porch, I was blown away how friendly, kind, welcoming and inviting they all were. Some came right out to meet me on their front walk. Some were sitting on their porch and invited me up to talk. When I got home, I told my wife, Barb, that It was truly a life affirming experience that made my day and made me feel so proud and lucky to live in Webster Groves. I love "Porchfest" because it embodies the meaning of the word, community: "To share together as one". Our performers are playing for free and sharing their time and talent. Our homeowners are sharing their front porches. And our audience is sharing its time and appreciation for live music they are hungry for and to equally appreciative performers who have not played in front of a live audience for months. And at the musicians' request, we will have one GIANT "tip jar" to collect cash and check donations to Webster-Rock Hill Ministries that serves the needy in our community. Final note: if this first "Porchfest" is successful, our goal every year is to move and hold it in other Webster neighborhoods to share the love and spread the music!
