Fire Department Report Battalion Chief Sid Newby reported:  There was a total of 228 incidents in January. 200 medical calls, 26 service calls, and 2 working fires.  Shared Be fire smart handout regarding electrical fires.  March is the last major month for home electrical fire deaths. The peak months are November through March. The big problem locally is power strips with too much stuff plugged into them. Carbon monoxide alarms. Central was closed recently. Lady with medical emergency hit a gas line. She was fine. Area was secured until gas was shut off. 5. Community Police Report Officer Ryan Snyder reported:  46 beat area – not much to report. Seeing a lot of larcenies from autos, mostly in business areas like 37th and Rock Rd. People are going into a business and leaving their doors unlocked. We’ve been seeing some vehicle break-ins where they bust open windows, but it’s mostly unlocked vehicles. Hide your valuables and lock your cars.  Starting a pilot project at the North YMCA – we’ll have a person pull on door handles and see if people notice.  There’s a new housing area being constructed for residential at 37th and Greenwich. Right now there’s only one resident living there. A lot of thefts are happening there now. The resident is trying to set up surveillance and security. Q (DAB) – Are copper thefts still a problem? A (Lt. Sarah Oldridge) – Copper thefts happen all over the city – it’s a problem everywhere, even at abandoned buildings. If you see something suspicious, call 911, even if it seems small at the time. And a reminder, don’t leave cars unattended and running. 6. Park & Recreation Department Report  NONE 7. Wichita Public Library Report Savannah Ball, Branch Manager, reported: 2  Page |3  The library is collaborating with local early childhood programs for art work by preschoolers at the East YMCA and Bug Lady Science Academy. Public is invited to view and attend here at Rockwell on April 18.  Beginning Spring gardening classes tomorrow. Registration is required. First classes are full, last classes are not full. The classes are repeated at Evergreen if you can’t get in to our classes. Q (DAB) –70 people per class? A – At Rockwell, yes. Q (DAB) – Is it the same class each time? A – It’s a different class every week. A master gardener from Sedgwick county extension center is teaching the classes. 8. Public Works and Utilities Report Gary Janzen, City Engineer, reported:  East Kellogg update – things are going well out there. Couple of things to highlight – the U-turn at the half mile at Webb and Greenwich is gone. We had to take that out to continue paving work. Scheduled for substantial completion for Webb part at the end of this year. Our goal is to have Kellogg traffic on the freeway, full length, by the end of this year if weather cooperates. There’s still a lot of work beyond that. The original completion date was 2021, but we should beat that.  Expanding the Four Mile Creek treatment plant. It’s 1 of 5 waste water treatment plants. We’re doubling its capacity. It reaches all the way up to K-96 and Greenwich. We’re about to put the plant online in the next couple of weeks.  Two projects on 127th, one on 13th and 21st. There’s a lot of challenges there. Utility issues and unforeseen problems. Weather. Within a month it should be back to 2-way traffic. Some things to wrap up in April and May.  127th from Central to 13th. South bound for now. That project City planned on investing pavement preservation funds to go in and do some minimal work, but able to partner with Sedgwick county and the township – they helped to triple the budget which means we can do a lot more. Will be done before Wichita Open golf tournament.  Winding down improvement to Stryker. Drive by and take a look. $22 million in star bonds. 11 turf fields. Indoor turf field. Winding down expansion of stadium. Adding additional bleachers on south side. Weather had a major impact on the project completion date, but we’re almost there. Planning a dedication ceremony.  Construction on Greenwich from Harry to Pawnee widening to three lanes, improvements to drainage. Partnered with Sedgwick County. Got federal funds for that project. Traffic counts are increasing.  Annual outsource pavement program of about 9 to 10 million. Challenge to maximize return on investment. From 2018 program we have some micro surfacing to finish up. 21st and Rock. Will do the same thing on Harry. Some work on residential streets. On Rock Road from 13th to 17th and 13th from Rock Road to the west. Will use a diamond grinder and grind that down. Will get going in about month. Will be a big improvement.  Improvements to Redbud bike path. Hope to start construction this summer. Mainly federal funds. In design phase. Concrete path still works well, but runners and walkers have said they don’t want to run on concrete. Some concrete and some specialized gravel. Q (DAB) – Have we started the new water treatment plant? A – We’ve started the design process. Have applied for and given approval for a federal loan. It will cost 400 to 500 million dollars. Biggest project we’ve ever built. But with federal funding you don’t start paying back until 5 years after construction is completed. Still finalizing some things with funding. Moving forward with design. Construction probably won’t start until 2021. Existing treatment plant is approaching 90 years. 3  Page |4 Action Taken: Motion made to receive and file all Staff Reports. Motion PASSED 6-0-0. NEW BUSINESS 9. Project Wichita Evan Rossell, Project Wichita has been in existence for just over a year. People sensing a momentum and progress and pride. How do we ask the right questions for a 10 year framework to move forward? 94 different organizations - public and private leaders. Who best to speak about future of the community than the community? Surveys and focus groups to help build an action plan. Heard from around 14,000 people. Over 2 million data points from surveys so helped to build a plan in 5 key focus areas. Talent Lifelong Learning Economic Prosperity Strong Communities and Neighborhoods Quality of Place Talent – How do we keep and attract young people? Lifelong Learning – More than just K-12 – Literacy a major issue – 3rd grade literacy – 40% of 3rd graders below grade level. Private sector really wants to help. Economic Prosperity – Looked at updating regional growth plan. Looked at tourism. Convention center doesn’t meet standards so we’re missing out convention dollars. Strong Communities – Anchor institutions. Things like hospitals, libraries, universities, YMCAs. Mental health as well. It’s an increasingly important issue in communities. Homelessness and law enforcement. Quality of Place – Characteristics that make community unique. Things you take your out-of-town guests to come see. Strong desire for modern performing arts center. And Comprehensive plan for the east bank of the river. It’s a regional issue not just a downtown issue. Looking to move this thing forward. Forming a team called the advancement team to help push these things forward together. Look for opportunities to step forward. Go online to project Wichita.org. Sign up for email alerts and updates. Action Taken: Motion made to receive and file. Motion PASSED 6-0-0. 10. Scooters Scott Wadle, Senior Management Analyst, presented on the status of the electric scooter pilot program. We want you to endorse the concept – will be tweaks and best practices before this heads to city council. Team that has been working on this from different departments. E-scooters are a larger version of scooter you’ve played with as a kid. Powered with an electric battery. Can go up to 20 mph. Designed to be stood on. 2 wheels. First mile last mile solution. Take the bus then take scooter rest of the way. GPS involved – attached to most scooters. You have the ability to establish slow areas or no scooter zones. Like during River Fest. You can make that a no scooter zone so people aren’t riding through the middle of River Fest. BIRD was first company to bring scooters. They said they would be dropping off hundreds in November. Several other companies heard and started contacting us to get in on it. Several different cities do this. About 60 in U.S. that have scooters. More than 100 worldwide. Variety of different companies. Colorado, Oklahoma, and Missouri all have scooter companies that operate there. Just a matter of time before we got asked. Companies flushed with venture capital. 1st thing we did was look at what other communities are doing in the Midwest. We hired a company to research best practices. Gave us a launch pad. A lot of communities are going with pilot agreements that allows them to make changes as needed. Ours is modeled after Columbia, Missouri. Theirs is modeled after Kansas City. Received pilot doc from 4  Page |5 BIRD. Gave some template docs. Other companies have been giving feedback as well. Proposal would allow multiple scooter companies. Open to whichever company wants to come in, but minimal fleet size of 100. Have to provide contact info. Members of public have to be able to contact them. Cap at 500 scooters. 3 rides per scooter per day could increase fleet size. Some negotiating on that. Requiring data sharing on location of scooter trips and speed. They need to maintain scooters and provide insurance for the scooters. Some places require insurance for the riders as well. 15mph maximum speed initially – companies said what about 20? Can put in restrictions based on time and location. Scooters can be programmed to shutoff at 9pm or sundown, whichever is later. Where will they go? Prohibit sidewalks. Will have to change municipal code. Nothing about scooters. Would be allowed on streets, bike lanes, and paths. But looking at issues with allowing them in some parks. Scooters limited to no more than 250 downtown – but still working on this – per company? Per downtown? Scooters will gravitate to where there is the most demand. Downtown and WSU. People have seen pictures of bad scooter parking. Some companies require photos of parking to ensure they did a good job. Parking violations. Companies have 6 hours to respond to an issue, but city can impound a scooter if there is an immediate issue. $32 fee for that. Annual administrative fee of $500 to $1,000. Municipal code changes. Must be 18 years old. Standard age someone can enter into a contract by themselves. Mandatory bike lanes and paths. Just for bike use – then person is required by state law to ride on the path. But draft change would require scooter to use a path if one is adjacent. Latest version will go to city council. City can terminate pilot with 30 day notice. They can make a revision or decide scooters aren’t good for the city. Available at Wichita.gov/scooters. Want the DAB to endorse the concept. Q (Public) Aaron Zarchan – 2327 N Stoneybrook Ct. – Will riders be required to have a DL? A – Not by the city, but some companies will require it. Q (Public) Aaron Zarchan – 2327 N Stoneybrook Ct. – Is that an ordinance change? City requires DL to operate a motorized vehicle. A – We do allow scooters below a certain CC. Q (Public) Aaron Zarchan – 2327 N Stoneybrook Ct. – Curious about insurance. Someone can still do property damage. A – At this point, there’s been a pretty good article, but I’m not for sure on that point. Right now insurance is for company to insure against liability to the city. Some companies require riders to have it. Q (Public) – Marge Zakoura-Vaughan – 9016 E. Boxthorn St. – Concerned we need additional education for the public. Those driving cars – people sharing with bikes – what is the plan for education as we move into this before and during? A – Pilot agreement says company should provide educational information. At this point city doesn’t have budget or program to provide for that. But we do have a program to promote bicycle safety. Happened last summer – but no budget to continue Q (Public) – Patrick Penn – 2507 N. Lindberg St – New to community – question about homeless population – riding scooters and hitting people on sidewalks. If city is paying for this – if I have to give my DL for the library, but homeless can still come in. Same thing with this? A – This is different – private companies – we are giving them permission. You would have to be a member of the company to ride this. People can’t ride on sidewalks. Q (DAB) – How long is pilot process? A – Proposed to be a year. But we can make changes with 30 day notice Q (Public) – Wayne Phillips – 3964 N. Sweet Bay Ct – City has 30 days to terminate – preplan to trigger criteria? I go to phoenix often to check the weather. They have scooters all over the valley. They have ASU. Cities around are pulling their scooters now because of accidents and nuisance parking. A – That’s an important part of the pilot, but we don’t have those yet. We hear a lot about the injuries. New form of transportation and it’s unique – is it more relative to walking, biking, or driving? Q (Public) Brad Seville – 2004 Crooked Pine – The bicycles are free? Scooters cost too? A – Yes. 5  Page |6 Q (Public) Brad Seville – 2004 Crooked Pine – You have to say doing it at your own risk? A – Yes. Q (DAB) – Rationale to make it age 18? A – Have to be that old to enter a contract. Sign up for a membership you have to do that. C (DAB) – I’ve been in KC and OKC where they have theses – biggest complaint is that people abandon the scooters – parking issue. A – That’s part of the language. If it’s blocking a pedestrian way city can impound the vehicle and charge. Idea is to store at Wichita transit. C (DAB) – Just seemed to be an issue. People would hop off scooters and leave them. Action Taken: Motion to ENDORSE the concept outlined in the draft pilot operating agreement made by Tracee Adams. Seconded by Junetta Everett. MOTION PASSED 5-1-0 11. CUP2019-00004 Dave Yearout, Metropolitan Area Planning Department, The applicant is seeking “conditional use” approval for a “correctional placement residence, general” on 7.59 acres located south of Kellogg and west of the Turnpike Interchange on the south side of East Orme Street (8901 East Orme Street) that are zoned GO General Office (GO). The property is developed with an approximately 58,523 square-foot building built in 1986 that is currently being used as a facility for housing of psychiatric and mental health services by Via Christi Behavioral Health Center. The Sedgwick County Appraiser’s Office also shows a use of a skilled nursing use. The applicant, DCCCA, Inc., presently operates a facility that is classified as a Correctional Placement facility at 122 North Millwood in Wichita and intends to move its operation to the subject property. The move to this location will provide more space and outdoor area for its clients and operations. Code qualified them as correctional not group placement. This will provide opportunity for business to expand – staff recommending approval. C (Rachel Harper) – Program Coordinator for Options Adult Services and Women’s Recovery Center for DECA – We’ve been in Wichita for over 30 years – operate drug and alcohol centers and child placement homes. What we do currently and what we will be doing along with substance use treatment. We currently operate 122 North Millwood. We do outpatient and residential treatment in that location. At another location with women and children. Want to combine those locations into 1 location to better serve the community. Did offer a community meeting on February 28th. Presented our program and what we are going to do. Q (DAB) – Anyone here from that community? A – No Q (DAB) – There’s a big apartment house. I was concerned about this business going into that location. A – Served over 1,000 people last year – only 8 percent fall under community corrections. Drug offenders. We do not house sex offenders or violent offenders. Q (DAB) – People under supervision of court? A – Yes Q (DAB) – Will the limitations you described be codified? No sex offenders? A – We do substance abuse treatments. Yes they are on corrections, but they want to change. They want to better their lives. Q (DAB) – But what if they are drug abusers and sex offenders? A – We don’t accept sex offenders. Q (DAB) – So fewer than 8 percent? A – Correct A (Yearout) – This is not a lockdown facility. This is a service they are providing. Already doing service at that location. 6  Page |7 Q (DAB) – But this will be a residence? A – Yes. It already is now. Q (DAB) – That’s a residence now? A – Yes it’s a behavioral health center now. We are adding another population Q (DAB) – What was the feedback from community? A – A wide variety. Q (DAB) – Was it well attended? A – 3 people C (DAB) – This would scare me. I can see it lowering the property value. I question if this is the right location. I wouldn’t want to buy a house there. C (DAB) – Not sure the population will change significantly- currently a residential setting. C (DAB) – I try to look out for residents of neighborhoods. Zoning changes adversely affect neighborhoods. I hate to see it at that location. We have to look out for the residents at this location. Q (DAB) – Only 3 people showed up? A – Yes Q (DAB) – How was it promoted? A – Sent letters out to all homeowners in 500 feet radius. Q (DAB) – There’s residential around it? A – Yes. A (Yearout) – Other location west of Seneca about 2 blocks. C (DAB) – Sounds like you have a track record. Community gave input. Not here today to contest it. C (DAB) – That’s 3 people. C (DAB) – People buy homes – you hate to have something so detrimental – I like what you’re doing – I don’t think it’s the right location. C (CM Tuttle) – Recommended action is to approve. Action Taken: Motion made by Junetta Everett to ACCEPT the application as presented. Seconded by Keith Lane. MOTION FAILED 1-5-0 Motion made by Sam Lindeman to recommend DENIAL of the application as presented. Seconded by Tracee Adams. MOTION PASSED 5-1-0 Nick Howell recused himself. David Babbich takes chair. CUP2018-00052 Dave Yearout, Metropolitan Area Planning Department, presented an application on behalf of (Centennial American Properties C/O Brody Glenn) requesting an amendment to the Tallgrass East Commercial Community Unit Plan (CUP) DP-168, located on the east side of North Webb Road approximately ¼ mile north of East 21st Street North. The amendment concerns Parcel 4-B and proposes construction of an enclosed, self-storage warehouse. This case was first scheduled for consideration by the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission (MAPC) February 21, 2019. It was withdrawn and the application was amended following the review of the case by the District Advisory Board II on February 11, 2019. As originally submitted, the DAB II recommended denial of the application by a vote of 8 to 0, with one abstention. The original submission proposed a building height of 45 feet. The amended submittal provides a building height of 34 feet, 11 inches; which is within the original restriction of a maximum building height of 35 feet. Planning did not hear the case last time. The height of the building has been decreased. Mass remains the same CUP amended to enlarge the parcel to full area. Heigtht is reduced, virtyally everything elses remains the same. Still talking about ua fully enclosed climate controlled storage facilty. 3 stories. 34 feet 11 inches. 7  Page |8 Staff report recommending approval. 1 of the things we talked about is one of the most valuable properties is storage. Does set back quite a ways from Webb. Further away from north property line. Increased landscaping by the wall. CM Tuttle – 3 minutes – state name and address for the minutes. C (Jason Tankersley) – Last go round, we heard concerns about height and neighborhood buffering. We took those concerns and modified our building to fit. We now have a building that is 34 feet 11 inches to roof deck. Does provide screening to shield HVAC equipment. We squashed it down and spread it out. No glazing (windows) on the north side. All lighting at parking lot. No lighting on neighborhood side. Drive through drives in and south. No headlight towards the neighborhood. Moved dumpster to south side. Enhanced landscaping. Less than a football field long. More than a basketball court wide. It is 3 stories and you do pull all the way through building. Totally secure and private. No exterior storage units. With new landscaping plan – you see line of sight in this image – height of building is obscured. The new trees won’t start that tall, but with maturity they completely obscure the building. C (Doug Wynn) – Centennial American Properties – We went above and beyond on landscaping plan than what the city would require. We talked to some neighbors to the north. We gave them an A plan and a B plan – The neighbors chose the more expensive plan, but that’s ok with us. Q (DAB) – Did you present this to the neighbors? A – No, we just got this done today – but property owners saw the preliminary. Q (DAB) – Are any of those neighbors here? A – Yes, I live behind there. C (Doug Wynn) – Centennial American Properties – Landscaping plan comes in at the end, but we make sure we have the right variety and spacing. It helps because you want to do a good landscape plan with a landscape architect. Those are the modifications we’ve made. Bringing the building down. It’s important to the neighborhood and important to us. The access to the building is all away from the neighborhood. The gym next to it is already a 3 story building today. Our building won’t look like that, but it will be the same size Q (DAB) – I’m confused, this isn’t 34 feet 11 inches? A – It slopes to 34’11” on the neighborhood side. C (DAB) – Building height in code is sneaky. A (Yearout) – It’s not the highest point of the building – it’s the roofline. C (DAB) – Neighbors see the highest point – not roofline. Q (CM Tuttle) – But do they meet the requirements of building code? Q (DAB) – You’re saying this building is to code? A – Yes Q (DAB) – Was this brought to the HOA? A – Yes they are neutral – they refused to participate. Would neither recommend nor deny – they tabled it. Q (Public) David Nelson 2311 North Vine Gate – What’s the setback from north wall? A – 46 feet C (Public) Aaron Zarchan – 2347 N. Stoneybrook Ct – I appreciate they met with us. Think it’s a great concept and would love to have them in Wichita – this is not the right place – use is the issue. It’s still a large building – this building is using up 42 % of parcel. Allows use of 46 percent of land use instead of 30 percent. Changes space in proximity to each other. It’s a giant wall football field blocking every ones view. Belongs in commercial area not residential. Look at all the buildings in the area. Medical offices, small businesses. Not something this massive. Look at residential area around there. Nothing in the area of this size. Changing the use and doesn’t fit in neighborhood. 8 golden rules in zoning changes. (Read them off). 8  Page |9 Q (Public) Janie Kawawa – 2355 N. Stoneybrook Ct. – I agree with everything Aaron said. Question – before clubhouse meeting in the area, I knocked on every door. Many people have not heard of the building. But people thought we objected to 35 foot height and assumed it would be 25 feet. Some people didn’t know about it at all. 20 neighbors came to the clubhouse meeting. When I got this letter on Saturday, I did not have time to get people here. A lot of people aren’t getting letters. The March 21st meeting was postponed to April 21st. It just seems like it’s obfuscating the issue. People who don’t know the old meeting is cancelled. Is that the purpose? A (CM Tuttle) –I can assure you there is no maliciousness to changing meeting dates. It was to allow more community engagement because we couldn’t be there. A (Yearout) – It was advertised for April 4th all along. It was February 21st and got changed because the proposal was withdrawn and changed. Q (DAB) – What’s the explanation for people not being notified? A (Yearout) – We’ve sent four mailers and extended the location size. A (Tankersley) – We actually had to buy the mailing list from a title company. C (Public) Patrick Penn – 2507 N. Lindberg Street –I never got a letter. I’m concerned about my property value. Let’s table this again. Q (DAB) – Is there is a sign on that lot? A (Yearout) – Yes. C (DAB) – I’ve never seen it there. A (Yearout) – I’ve put the sign up there twice myself. We only need a two-week notice to put up a sign which is coming up. The actual hearing is April 4th. If you are concerned, file a protest petition. It’s a one- page document that says your address and you sign it. There’s a 14-day window after the public hearing. File it with the City Clerk’s office after the April 4th hearing date. If there are sufficient protest petitions filed, it changes what it would take for city council to approve it. Normally it would be a simple majority, but it would take 6 of 7 votes instead of 4 with the protest petition. C (DAB) – I would highly recommend you all attend. C (Yearout) – 1:30 on April 4th in the old IRS building. 2nd floor. That information is on Wichita.gov. Q (Public) Ken Leblanc – 2349 N. Stoneybrook Ct – What type of material is the façade? A – Combination of cast stone and EIFS. Like the other buildings around there now. We want to blend in. Q (Public) Ken Leblanc – 2349 N. Stoneybrook Ct – Is there any sort of guarantee of the landscaping? A – They have to submit a plan for approval and comply. Q (Public) Ken Leblanc – 2349 N. Stoneybrook Ct – And if they don’t follow through? A (Yearout) – The city has been enforceing landscaping requirements for 26 years. Q (Public) Ken Leblanc – 2349 N. Stoneybrook Ct – Expanding the building size? A (Yearout) – Extending 10 feet on the south side. C (Public) Ken Leblanc – 2349 N. Stoneybrook Ct (DAB) – I like the concept, but there are better areas to put something of this size. I love the concept. A lot cleaner. Access is private. I just don’t like this location. It would be nice to see the scale to know what we’re really looking at. C (Brad Seville) – Landmark Commercial Real Estate – This property – Lowes wanted to be there. Recently the intersection has taken off. The ownership list is $3,000 and we’ve done it twice. I’ve never seen such a process involving the neighborhood and the board. We have really good feedback from the tallgrass board. These guys have flown in 6 or 8 times to have meetings with property owners. They’ve attempted to address all concerns. They’ve improved building materials. They’ve lowered the building. This could be a hotel. This could an office building with lots of window. But there’s not one window. One board member said this is probably the least intrusive use. I’ve been doing this 30 years, these guys are first class trying to address community concerns. With all the letters and attempts to reach out, it’s hard to hear people don’t know about this. Q (Public) Ken Leblanc – 2349 N. Stoneybrook Ct – Is there any design smaller than this? A (Tankersley) – No this is our smallest possible. Q (DAB) – Let’s bring it back to the board – any discussion, board members? 9  P a g e | 10 C (DAB) – When we first met with you all, we heard from residents and heard our concerns – I think you’ve done a good job addressing concerns. I know it’s a big burden and a lot of expense. I commend you for it. C (DAB) – I think it violates the use and character of the neighborhood. If you were to put Granite City or a bank, it wouldn’t be like putting a warehouse there. C (DAB) – Originally it was submitted and we denied the application. The paper said it was 35 and they thought it was going down to 25. But it was originally 45 and they did what we asked and dropped to 35. Q (DAB) – What are we approving? A (CM Tuttle) – The staff recommendation to approve the building as proposed. Q (DAB) – So 1-6 we are approving? A (Yearout) – Yes. Q (DAB) – We would also approve changing percent of parcel from 30 to 40 percent? A (Yearout) – Yes, all of the conditional requirements. Q (DAB) – Have neighbors been notified of the protest process? A – It’s in the original notice and it’s available on the website. Q (DAB) – I understand that but this our last shot. A – Original notification tells them about the right to protest C (CM Tuttle) – Whether we approve or not approve – this is going to MAPC on April 4th. C (DAB) – Not anyone can protest? A – 200 feet within location. Q (DAB) – But do they know about it? A – Yes A (Public) – I live in that area and I got two notices. Action Taken: Motion made by Keith Lane to ACCEPT the application as presented. Seconded by Junetta Everett. MOTION PASSED 3-2-1 C (DAB) – Be sure to go to that meeting. C (Public) – The notification doesn’t cover whole neighborhood. Meeting was adjourned at 8:49 p.m. The next DAB II meeting will be held at 6:30 p.m., Monday, April 08, 2019, at Rockwell Branch Library, 5939 E 9th St N, Wichita, KS 67208. 10
