ADJOURNED HEARING from May 1, 2000 113708 - Anders/Jordan that the adjourned hearing (see CR 113677) on the request of Pam and Bud Jones for a site plan amendment to the "C -Z" Conditional Zoning District for property commonly known as 2452 Burton Avenue for the addition of a curb -cut on the north side of the property for the storage of asphalt contracting equipment be opened. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried 113709 - Mike Pedersen, attorney on behalf of Pam and Bud Jones, stated that the Joneses are small operators in a competitive asphalt business. They have five families depending on them and need every penny to keep them employed. Mr. Pedersen noted that the Joneses major commodity is purchased from their major competitor. Mr. Pedersen stated that Mr. and Mrs. Jones want to park their own vehicles on their property so they won't have to leave their equipment on the job site for vandalism. Mr. Pedersen stated that at the last council meeting there was talk of this property being an eyesore. Mr. Pedersen noted that the request came about because the Joneses wanted to get a curb cut. Mr. Pedersen stated that there are over two acres of property and they need a place to park their vehicles, and there is a grove of trees dividing the property. Someone complained that this would be an eyesore and Mayor Rooff asked council members to look at the property to see what would happen if this request were approved. Mr. Pedersen stated that it is his understanding that the complaining party lives one-half mile away from the site. Mr. Pedersen passed around photographs taken of the Joneses property. Mr. Pedersen stated that the complaining party said there was traffic going in and out of the property all day and by the photographs you can't even see the traffic going in and out. Mr. Pedersen stated that the photo taken by the van shows that from the street you can't see the property where the vehicles would be parked. Another photograph showed how much of a dump truck pulled up by the fence was visible. Mr. Pedersen stated that if the council permits this rezoning, it won't be an eyesore, it will be hidden, and you would have to go on the Joneses property to see it. Mr. Pedersen noted that some of the property around their property is zoned agricultural, and his experience with farm activities is farmers routinely store vehicles on their property. Mr. Pedersen distributed pictures showing farm equipment stored on the agricultural land. Mr. Pedersen asked that if it is appropriate to prevent the Joneses, then why doesn't the city prevent agricultural people from parking their equipment on their property. If one is an eyesore, why not the other. Mr. Pedersen stated that there has been concern expressed about the zoning not being in the best interest of the city. Immediately north of the Joneses property is an area that is going to be an industrial park. Mr. Pedersen stated that it is his understanding of zoning practices that you don't have residential zoning abutting industrial, you put a buffer between them, commonly commercial. Mr. Pedersen stated that it is appropriate that the Joneses property be zoned commercial as a buffer. Mr. Pedersen stated that there have been concerns regarding the prior zoning, and he would be happy to address any concerns of the council. Mr. Pedersen stated that there have been concerns that the Joneses were burning copper wire; fact is, it would be ridiculous for the Joneses to burn copper because in this business you get docked for burnt copper. Mr. Pedersen stated that because of the vegetation on the property, Mr. and Mrs. Jones do burn yard waste. May 8, 2000 Page 2 ADJOURNED HEARING from May 1, 2000 CONTINUED Councilperson Jordan stated that as part of the rezoning in 1995, Bud and Pam Jones were to be the only employees, and Mr. Pedersen has said they have five employees. Mr. Pedersen stated that these people are not employed on the property, and the asphalt business is not on the site. Mr. Pedersen noted that those requirements had to do with the metal business, which is run solely by Bud and Pam Jones. Don Temeyer, City Planner, stated that the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission recommended denial of the request because the Joneses were not abiding by the previous conditions by storing items outside of the fenced area and burning. Mr. Temeyer noted that the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission is always reluctant to approve a request if the applicant is not in compliance with previous conditions. Mr. Temeyer stated that Mr. Jones probably could have had the curb cut but he was in violation of the zoning ordinance. Councilperson Jordan asked if this request was for a curb cut or rezoning. Mr. Temeyer stated that this request went before the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission for a site plan amendment. If the site plan amendment is approved, the Engineering Department will probably approve the curb cut. Mr. Pedersen stated that for a short period of time, there were steel desks stored outside the fence. As soon as they were notified they were not in compliance, they took the desks to Weissman Steel. Mr. Pedersen noted that the Joneses were out of compliance for a very short time, days or a week. Councilperson Getty stated that when he drove by the property before there were leaves on the trees, you could see the items being stored on the property, so there are about six months when there is no foliage. Councilperson Getty stated that Mr. Jones was out of compliance for a while, and he has concerns about how large this is going to be. Mr. Pedersen asked who has complained, and that it is not right to have anonymous complaints. Mr. Jones noted that he has two dump trucks, three asphalt rollers, four trailers, a packing machine and a sealcoat machine that is used for his asphalt business. Mr. Jones stated that he does not want to use the main driveway for the heavy equipment. Mr. Jones stated that he would be willing to put up another fence, if necessary. Councilperson Jordan asked if they were out of compliance, why weren't they cited. Councilperson Getty stated that when staff was investigating the site plan amendment they noted that Mr. Jones was not in compliance. Councilperson Anders stated that in the photo of the fenced area at the end of the driveway, it looks like there are 20 cars. Mr. Jones stated that those are not his vehicles, but his neighbor's vehicles. Jordan/Gronen that the hearing be closed and recommendation of denial of the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission and oral and written comments be received and placed on file. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried. 113710 - Jordan/Berry to override the recommendation of denial of the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission and approve said site plan. Ayes: Three. Nays: Anders, Gronen, Getty. Abstain: Krizek. Motion failed. HEARINGS 113711 - Anders/Jordan that proof of publication of notice of public hearing on request of Eppstein Uhen Architects on behalf of Albertson's, Inc., for a site plan amendment to the "S-1" Shopping Center Commercial District for property generally located on the southwest corner of Kimball and Ridgeway Avenues for development of an Osco Store, as published in the Waterloo Courier on April 26, 2000, be received and placed on file. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried. • May 8, 2000 HEARINGS CONTINUED Page 3 113712 - This being the time and place of public hearing, the Mayor Pro Tem called for written and oral objections. George Day, 1120 Prospect, stated that he has serious doubts about putting an Osco store on the corner of Kimball and Ridgeway Avenues, which is already congested and traffic backs up on both streets. There are a lot of businesses in the area with frontage road to Kimball hard to enter and exit. Mr. Day stated that this is a crowded area and the new store will make it more crowded. Mr. Day stated that he is not opposed to Osco going into business, but we must consider that the intersection is very crowded. Mr. Day urged the council to look at the area, especially at busy times. Mr. Day commented that if Osco wants a new store that is fine, but not at this corner. Mr. Day stated that he was involved in a traffic accident at this intersection several years ago. A resident on Kingbard noted that this corner is way too congested, and that the store won't look like the other businesses already there, such as the pharmacy and other little stores. She stated that intersection is not the place to have it, there are no left turn lanes although there are arrows, and there is no room to add other lanes of traffic. Mike Girsch, owner of Kimball Avenue Drug and Falls Road Drug, stated he has objections and concerns about the traffic. Mr. Girsch stated that he already feels sorry for his own customers trying to get in and out of the parking lot. Mr. Girsch stated that another business will only increase the existing traffic problem. Mr. Girsch noted that at times the traffic backs up to Southhills, Prospect and Mitchell Avenue. Mr. Girsch noted that a few years ago the city closed their south most drive. Mr. Girsch stated that another problem was the parking, that Osco is going to have parking only for 60 customers when the normal requirement is 76, and he objects to Osco getting special privileges. Mr. Girsch stated that the city should use the same standards for everyone. Mr. Girsch stated that he objects to the city selling public land to build a store, that is a neighborhood area, and doesn't need a big superstore in the area. Mr. Girsch noted that Osco will take out two businesses to make room for their store, and it will be five times larger than his making it difficult for him because Osco will carry things like liquor and beer. Mr. Girsch stated that there will be semi loads of products, and he feels that will cause more traffic. Mr. Girsch stated it will hurt the other stores, and there are only five independent stores in Waterloo. Mr. Girsch noted that there is a shortage of pharmacists, and Osco will be after his employees. Mr. Girsch stated he thinks Osco could build somewhere else, maybe on San Marnan Drive where traffic won't be as severe. Mr. Girsch stated he owns his property, and he was not notified of this request until it was already approved by the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission. Mr. Girsch asked the council to allow him time to bring in signatures to deny this request as there are many people against this. Mr. Girsch noted he has 45 employees at his two locations, and he wants to continue in business. Richard Boeschen, owner of the Conoco Station on the corner of Ridgeway and Kimball Avenues, stated that the traffic is a normal, busy traffic and asked what could be busier than a gas station. Mr. Boeschen stated that the way the lights are set, this is the safest possible way to do it. Mr. Boeschen commented that he does not believe there is a problem with traffic, and that shifting further south there will be more traffic. Mr. Boeschen stated that the tanks would have to come out for any business and cleaned up to DNR standards. Mr. Boeschen stated that there was little chance of contamination as he just got a certificate from DNR that there would be no further action. Mr. Boeschen stated that he does not believe traffic would make that much of a difference to deny this request. Kevin Everding, 325 Cornwall Avenue, stated that Mr. Girsch delivers and is the only drug store that delivers which is good for the disabled and elderly. Pat Fehrenbach, Eppstein Uhen Architect representing Osco, stated that he has been working with the city since the first of the year. Mr. Fehrenbach stated that the independent traffic engineer study shows little or no impact because Osco is removing a curb cut on Kimball Avenue within 100 feet of the Ridgeway Avenue intersection. Mr. Fehrenbach stated that they only need a certain number of parking spaces and they certainly wouldn't want less than they need. Mr. Fehrenbach stated that he feels comfortable with the 60 parking spaces. Jordan/Murphy that the hearing be closed and recommendation of approval of the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission and oral and written comments be received and placed on file. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried. May 8, 2000 Page 4 HEARINGS CONTINUED 113713 - Councilperson Jordan stated that the calls he received were concerned about the traffic, and he does not want it to end up like Crossroads. Don Temeyer, City Planner, stated that Tim Mrozek, Traffic Engineer, reviewed the traffic study, and he said Osco would not affect traffic. Mr. Temeyer stated that the city will continue to monitor the traffic. Mr. Temeyer stated that traffic into the gas station and into the Osco store are the same. Councilperson Jordan asked if the request is approved and the area becomes too congested what would the city do. Mr. Temeyer stated that the city could apply for funds from the state which require a 45/55 match. Councilperson Jordan asked about the semis backing in and out of traffic. Mr. Temeyer stated that the drivers will not be backing onto the street. Councilperson Jordan stated that he received quite a few calls and asked if traffic is a concern. Councilperson Jordan stated that he is pro business. Councilperson Anders stated that traffic is a concern, with customers going in and out of Kimball. Councilperson Anders stated with the Osco building we will end up like the traffic on Flammang Drive and San Marnan Drive. Councilperson Anders asked why the city would waive the 76 parking stall requirement. Councilperson Anders stated that if Osco wants to expand, he would like to see them to either improve the building at Logan Plaza or to build a new store there. Councilperson Berry asked if the Logan Plaza area had even been considered. Mr. Fehrenbach stated that Osco looked at the Logan Plaza area, and they are going to put in a new store there. Councilperson Krizek stated that traffic is a major concern, especially when kids are in school, with West High, Hoover, St. Edwards. Councilperson Krizek commented that this business could generate a lot of traffic. Councilperson Murphy stated that he feels this is a good way to build in the inner city. Councilperson Murphy stated that this business is looking to serve the neighborhoods and not move to farmland on the edge of town. Councilperson Murphy stated that he has visited the Osco store on University and has never seen more than 20 cars. Councilperson Murphy stated that he thinks the traffic will be less than with the gas station. Councilperson Jordan stated that traffic is always a concern, and the engineers all say there is no traffic concern. Councilperson Jordan stated that if we start governing our decisions on traffic only, then we can never allow more businesses on San Marnan. Councilperson Jordan stated that he does not want it to end up like the Crossroads area, and people are upset and they don't want to go out there. Councilperson Jordan stated that he has concerns about competition, but he does not think the council can govern on competition. Councilperson Anders stated that Mr. Girsch brought up that he would like to bring in a petition and asked if the council wanted to wait a few weeks for more information. Councilperson Murphy stated that this is an emotional issue, and he does not think the council has a moral objective to limit business because of competition. Councilperson Murphy stated that he feels we need to vote what is best for all the city. Jordan/Murphy that "Resolution approving said site plan amendment", be adopted. Ayes: Two. Nays: Anders, Krizek, Gronen, Getty, Berry. Motion failed. 113714 - Anders/Krizek that requests of Eppstein Uhen Architects on behalf of Albertson's, Inc. to vacate, sell and convey a 50' x 150' portion of Kimball Avenue frontage road generally located west of the 3000 block of Kimball Avenue for $22,500.00, and to vacate the 16' sanitary sewer easement generally located along the southern boundary of Lot 23 in Southgate Addition, be tabled indefinitely.
