01-04-1983 Regular MeetingCITY OF CLERMONT PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MINUTES January 4, 1983 This meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission was called to order by Chairman John Sargent at 7:30 p.m., January 4, 1983 in the City Council Chambers. Bob Thompson offered the Invocation. ROLL CALL: Present; Henry Czech, Adelbert Evans, Nick Jones, Jack Sargent, Bob Thompson, Russell TnTagner, and Joe Washuta. Absent; Albert Fogle. MINUTES of the meeting held December 7, 1982 were approved as presented. NEW BUSINESS: City PZanager Forbes presented Bob Wade's re- quest for rezoning of property at Highway and Highway 50 from R-1-A the northeast corner Single Family to C-2 of Grand General • Commercial. The annexation of the parcel in question is to be determined by City Council. Newly annexed property is always zoned R-1-A, and since this parcel may be occupied by Ouincy's Restaurant, rezoning to C-2 is nec essary. Attorney Dennis Horton, representing Bob Wade and Spartan Foods (Quincy's) introduced Mr. Wade, Surveyor Ben Blackburn, and Engineer Jim Adams. Mrs. Wilma. Nystrom and Michael Rodriguez, whose property is across Grand Highway from the proposed Quincy's, expressed con- cern that there may be problems with traffic because of the drive- way from the restaurant parking lots and for aesthetic reasons. A discussion followed, in which it was pointed out that the drawings on view are merely preliminary drawings, and that there will be many meetings between City staff and the developers, as well as the hearing before City Council, where every effort will be made to satisfy all parties affected and make the situation as safe as possible. A further discussion ensued, regarding the frontage road shown on the plans. It was explained that this road, on private property, will be extended to the east as the area is developed. The State Department of Transportation has been petitioned by P~4r. Wade to make another cut in the median of Highway 50, but he felt that approval would not be forthcoming. D4r. Jones suggested that the frontage road also be extended, to be shown by dotted lines on the drawing, to Grand Highway on the west. Mr. Adams stated that such a road, opening onto Grand Highway so close to the intersection, would be a safety hazard. Mr. Sargent suggested that, in addition to the eleven con- ditions recommended by the City staff (see below), these changes and additions be made: 1. In item 10 strike the phrase following the words "Ordin- ance 148-I~1. " 2. Ask the City Engineer to look into the traffic situation on Grand Highway and determine the necessity of reserving 'land for the expansion of Grand Highway to the east, to allow for a decel- leration lane. 3. Recommend to City Council that sign placement and con- figuration be shown on the plans. After further discussion about the possibility of having another cut through the median on Highway 50, DZr. Jones made the following motion, seconded by P~~.r. Washuta: IF THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION IS ANNEXED TO THE CITY, THE RECOP2- MENDATION BE MADE TO CITY COUNCIL THAT THE ZONING BE CHANGED TO C-2 GENERAL COMMERCIAL SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 1. The property is to be used only in conformance with the plans submitted by the owner. 2.
