DISCUSSION. ALL RIGHT. GOOD AFTERNOON, BRIAN DAVIS LITTLE METRO OFFICE OF PLANNING. THIS IS PLAYING MISSION. DR. NUMBER 23 ZONE 123 FOR 1130 SOUTH EIGHTH STREET. AS STATED THE PROPERTY ADDRESS IS 1130 SOUTH. EIGHTH STREET IS LOCATED. METRO COUNCIL DISTRICT SIX. THIS IS AN OUTLINE OF THE PROPERTY HERE. YOU CAN SEE IT'S AT THE NORTHWEST AND ENTER, UH, NORTH NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE INTERSECTION OF SOUTHEAST STREET AND OLDHAM STREET RIGHT BEFORE OLDHAM STREET TERMINATES BEFORE IT GETS OVER TO THAT KIND OF LIFE AND SEVENTH STREET AREA.

SORRY. THERE WE GO. THANKS IT SO THIS IS THE EXISTING BUILDING WHICH STAFF WAS INTENDING TO REUSE THE EXISTING USES OF RESIDENTIAL BUILDING AN AMBULANCE PROPOSING TO CHANGE IT TO COMMERCIAL. THIS IS THE ZONING MAP OF THE AREA PROPERTIES CURRENTLY ZONED R SEVEN AND THERE THAT IS PROPOSING TO CHANGES TO CR, WHICH IS COMMERCIAL RESIDENTIAL.

SO THE REQUEST BEFORE WE USE THE CHANGING ZONING FROM OUR SEVEN TO SEE OUR, UM THE ABSENCE, PROPOSING TO PUT A RESTAURANT IN THE EXISTING NON RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE THE SITE WAS MOST RECENTLY RECENTLY USED AS A CHURCH PARKING IS AVAILABLE ON PUBLIC STREETS NEAR THE SITE SINCE SINCE IT IS IN THE TRADITIONAL NEIGHBORHOOD, AND IT'S A OLDER BUILDING. THERE ARE NO ON SITE PARKING REQUIREMENTS. THIS IS THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN HERE, UM YOU CAN SEE THE EXISTING BUILDING AS IT SITS ON THE CORNER THERE AGAIN NO PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE EXISTING STRUCTURE. THIS IS A GOOGLE STREET VIEW PHOTO OF THAT BUILDING. YOU CAN SEE VERY MUCH A OLDER KIND OF MIXED, MIXED RESIDENT MIXED USE OR COMMERCIALLY USED PROPERTY THERE ON THE CORNER. THIS IS ADJACENT SITE MORE ADJACENT SITES. AND MORE. JASON'S LIKE PHOTO. THE ATHLETE CONDUCTED THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING ON AUGUST 28TH 2023 DEVELOPMENT TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE MEETING WAS ON DECEMBER 14TH 2023 AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION CONDUCTED A PUBLIC HEARING ON JANUARY 4TH 2024. THE PLANNING COMMISSIONS MOTION WAS TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF CHANGING ZONING FROM OUR SEVEN TO C R, AND THAT PASSED BY VOTE OF 9 TO 0. THAT'S ALL THAT I HAVEN'T SAID, UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME. WE'VE BEEN JOINED BY COUNCILWOMAN JENNIFER CHAPEL AND BY COUNCIL MEMBER PHILLIP BAKER, AND THIS IS IN HIS DISTRICT. SOMEONE GIVE HIM A FEW SECONDS TO GET HIS COMPUTER UP. THIS IS GOING TO BE YOU SAID A RESTAURANT, RIGHT? YES. CAN YOU EXPLAIN JUST FOR THE VIEWING PUBLIC WIRED CHURCH COULD GO IN, UH, RESIDENTIAL ZONE PROPERTY. YEAH, YEAH. SO TRADITIONALLY, UH , LIKE INSTITUTIONAL USES LIKE CHURCHES THEY HAVE BEEN PERMITTED IN ALL OF THE RESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICTS, AND SO IN OUR SEVEN THEY ARE PERMITTED BY RIGHT. AND SO THAT'S WHY IT WOULD BE PERMITTED AND WHAT EVEN THOUGH IT'S GOT THE R IN FRONT OF IT, THAT THAT TYPE OF USE IS PERMITTED IN THAT DISTRICT. WE SEE THOSE COME UP EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, WHERE SOMEONE HAS PUT A CHURCH INTO RESIDENTIAL AREAS SO THAT WELL, I LIKE TO MAKE SURE THE VIEWING PUBLIC UNDERSTANDS THAT WHY THEY ARE ALLOWED TO DO THAT. COUNCIL MEMBER BAKER THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. UH THIS DEVELOPMENT THERE WAS NO ONE WHO'S LOOKING OUT POSITION TO THIS. WE'VE HAD GREAT DIALOGUE WITH THE COMMUNITY AND THE DEVELOPER.

I WAS WONDERING IF THERE WAS ANY SORT OF PLANS FOR DEVELOPMENT AROUND THIS SITE. I DIDN'T KNOW IF THIS WAS KIND OF STARTING.

WE DO NOT HAVE ANY KIND OF APPLICATIONS RIGHT NOW. BUT I MEAN, I THINK THAT COULD BE SOMETHING YOU'D SEE.

YOU KNOW, ESPECIALLY IN THIS AREA. YOU DON'T GET A WHOLE LOT OF VACANT PROPERTIES. AND SO YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT EVENTUALLY WE COULD SEE SOME REDEVELOPMENT OF THOSE SITES. RIGHT IT LOOKS LIKE NOT ONLY VACANT PROPERTIES, BUT VACANT LAND, WHICH GREAT FRIEND PHIL. ASSUME COUNCIL MEMBER OWEN . THANK YOU. CHAIR. FORMER AND PRETTY LONG TIME RESIDENT OF OLD LOUISVILLE.

DISTRICT. HE WAS HAVING SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES. I WAS WORKING ON HIS COMPUTER, SO HE IS SUPPORTIVE OF THIS CHANGE IN ZONING, BUT HE MAY POP IN, UH, DURING THE MIDDLE OF IT. ITEM NUMBER TWO IS AN ORDINANCE RELATED TO THE ZONING OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2230 MUTUAL AVENUE CONTAINING APPROXIMATELY 3.84 ACRES AND BEING A LITTLE METRO CASE NUMBER 23 ZONE, 0128.

MOTION. PROBABLY MOVING A SECOND. WE'RE READY FOR DISCUSSION. OKAY THIS IS A PLANNING COMMISSION. DOCKET NUMBER 23 ZONE 128 FOR A MUTUAL TRAIN DEPOT. THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED 20 TO 30 MUTUAL AVENUE, LOCATED METRO COUNCIL DISTRICT 10. THIS IS AN OUTLINE OF THE AREA OF THE PROPERTY ON TOP OF AN AERIAL PHOTO. AS YOU CAN SEE, IT'S CURRENTLY VACANT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE HISTORIC TRAIN DEPOT, WHICH IS LOCATED ON THE SITE AND WILL REMAIN AS PART OF THE APPLICATION THAT WAS PROPOSING TO MAKE A COMMERCIAL USE ON THE SITE. THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION ARE CURRENTLY ZONED R. FOUR R FIVE. THE AFRICAN IS PROPOSING TO CHANGE THE ZONING TO SEE ONE COMMERCIAL. SO THE REQUEST BEFORE WE USE A CHANGE OF ZONING FROM R FOUR AND R FIVE TO SEE ONE COMMERCIAL. UH THEY ARE PROPOSING TO RENOVATE THE HISTORIC MUTUAL TRADE DEPOT SITE FROM MIX OF RESTAURANT COMMUNITY OPEN SPACE. THE SITE IS AN INDIVIDUAL HISTORIC LANDMARK, AND THERE IS EXISTING PARKING AND ACCESS THAT WILL REMAIN AS PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

THE AFRICAN ACTUALLY OBTAINED THIS PROPERTY FROM THE CITY. THERE WAS A ONE OF THE PROPERTIES THAT THEY CAN INCREASE DEVELOPMENT HAD ACQUIRED. AND THEY HAD LIKE A LITTLE MINI CONTEST TO SEE WHO COULD COME UP WITH MOST CREATIVE USE ON THE PROPERTY. AND THIS WAS THE ONE THAT ONE AND SO ONE OF THE ONE OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THAT WAS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO CONVERT IT FROM RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL. AND SO THIS WAS KIND OF THE OFFSPRING OF THAT. SO THIS IS THE DETAILED DEVELOPMENT PLAN THAT'S PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT . THE TRAIN DEPOTS LOCATED RIGHT HERE. THERE WILL NOT BE ANY OTHER PERMANENT STRUCTURES ON THE SITE. YOU MAY HAVE SEEN THAT THERE IS ONE OLD TRAIN CAR ON THE SITE THEY'RE WORKING TO BRING IN ANOTHER OLD TRAIN CARS. WELL AND THEN THOSE WOULD BE UTILIZED AS PART OF LIKE THE WHOLE THING FOR HAVING LIKE, KIND OF FOOD TRUCKS OR YOU KNOW SOMETHING THERE ON THE SIDE, AND THEN YOU CAN SEE JUST THE VARIOUS SETUPS THAT THEY HAVE FOR DIFFERENT AMENITIES ON THE SITE VERY MUCH KIND OF BEING UTILIZED AS LIKE A PARK AREA BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE WALKING TRAILS AND SOME OF THE OTHER AMENITIES THAT PEOPLE BE ABLE TO USE. HERE'S THE PHOTO. I THOUGHT, YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. THIS SHOWS THE TRAIN DEPOT THERE ON THE LEFT. YOU CAN SEE ONE OF THE OLD CARS THAT IS CURRENTLY ON THE SITE AGAIN. THEY ARE WORKING TO IF APPROVED TO BRING IN ANOTHER ONE THAT WOULD BE PLACED ON THE SITE. THIS IS THE ADJACENT STRIDER JASON SIDE ACROSS THE STREET AND THEN THESE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES ARE BACK UP TO THE SITE TO GET TO THE SOUTH. AND THEN THERE'S A CELL TOWER THAT IS ALSO ADJACENT TO THE SITE NEARBY. THE APPLICANT CONDUCTED THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING ON SEPTEMBER 6TH 2023 AND DEVELOPMENT TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE HAD A MEETING ON DECEMBER 14TH 2023 AND THE PLANNING QUESTION PUBLIC HEARING WAS ON JANUARY 4TH 2024, AND THEN THE MOTION WAS TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF CHANGING ZONING FROM OUR FOREIGN ARE FIVE TO SEE ONE THAT PASSED BY A VOTE OF 9 TO 0.

[00:30:02]

THAT'S ALL THAT I HAVE MORE QUESTIONS FOR ME. COUNCILMAN SCOTT REED. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. YOU DID SAY THAT THIS WAS A HISTORIC LANDMARK. YES, THE ENTIRE SITE. YES, THANK YOU. YOU KNOW, THERE USED TO BE A 50 YEARS AGO, USED TO BE A RESTAURANT IN LOBO CALLED VICTORIA STATION, AND Y'ALL ARE A LITTLE BIT TOO YOUNG TO REMEMBER THIS, BUT THEY HAD THAT, DID YOU? OH, MY GOSH, AND THEY USED TO HAVE A TRAIN CARS. IT WAS KIND OF A NEAT CONCEPT. A LOT OF PEOPLE. FEELS IT'S PROBABLY 40 BECAUSE I'M A LOT OLDER THAN YOU. BUT THEN I SAW THIS CONCEPT WHICH YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, LIKE THE COMMUNITY AREA AND ALL THAT. AND THEN USING THE FOOD TRUCK. UM I FORGET WHAT CITY IT WAS, BUT IT WAS A GREAT IDEA TO, UH, RE ESTABLISH, YOU KNOW, COMMERCIAL AREA, BUT YET IT BROUGHT OPPORTUNITY FOR THE COMMUNITY.

AND I THINK IT HAD PLAYGROUNDS UH, AND A SPRAY PARK AND THINGS FOR THE KIDS WHILE THE END IT WAS ALL CENTERED AROUND. THE MIDDLE OF IT WAS, UM THE PLAYGROUND AREA AND PICNIC TABLES, AND THEN THE TRUCKS WERE ON THE OUTSIDE OF IT, WHERE I THINK HE WAS A REDEVELOPMENT OF LIKE AN OLD STRIP JOINT STRIP CENTER, OR, UH, YEAH. SHOPPING CENTER. SAME THING. CANCEL MEMBER ABOUT SEAN. UM THANK YOU. CHAIR BRAND. YOU KNOW, I HAVE A QUESTION, SO I LOVE THIS IDEA.

FIRST OF ALL, I THINK IT'S A GREAT GREAT USE OF SPACE AND I THINK WE NEED TO ADVOCATE AND PUSH FOR MORE THINGS OF THIS NATURE IN OUR CITY AND OUR COMMUNITIES, ESPECIALLY, YOU KNOW, OUTSIDE OF YOU KNOW THE WATER SCENARIOS THAT AREN'T THAT NEEDS MORE RESTAURANTS AND JUST CREATIVE DESTINATION PLACES. MY QUESTION IS WITH IT BEING IN HISTORIC LAND SITE. IS THERE ANY DEVELOPMENT RESTRICTIONS THAT THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE MOVING FORWARD? OBVIOUSLY THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITH THAT STRUCTURE OF THAT BUILDING, PARTICULARLY BUT ADD ONS ONTO THE OTHER PARTS OF THE LAND. IS THAT GOING TO BE A HINDRANCE TO THEM? HE DIDN'T COME UP YET. SAVANNAH JUST HAPPENS TO BE HERE, SO WE'LL LET HER ANSWER THAT QUESTION. DIRE HISTORIC PRESERVATION OFFICER.

WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER, UM WITH THIS BEING A LOCAL LANDMARK. IT'S JUST SUBJECT TO OUR DESIGN GUIDELINES. SO IT JUST REQUIRES A DESIGN REVIEW. SO HER PLANS FROM THE BEGINNING SHE'S BEEN VERY FORWARD WITH US. WE'VE BEEN HELPING HER THROUGH EVERY STEP OF THE PROCESS. ANY ADDITION SHE WANTS TO DO ANY MODIFICATION SHE WANTS TO DO. SHE JUST HAS TO GO THROUGH THE REVIEW PROCESS, AND IT'S BEEN VERY STRAIGHTFORWARD AND EASY WITH THIS SITE. I'M EXCITED TO SEE THE PROJECT. WHEN IT'S DONE. IT'S THE GOING TO BE SOMETHING WORTH SEEING. I THINK ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS BEFORE WE VOTE WERE RIGHT ABOUT CHERYL. COUNCILOR WERE NO EVER.

THANK YOU. IT'S OKAY. WITHOUT OBJECTION. VON IS CLOSING. THERE ARE SEVEN YES VOTES, AND THIS WILL GO TO OUR NEXT COUNCIL MEETING. AN OLD BUSINESS. THANK YOU, CHERYL. COLLEAGUES I DON'T NUMBER THREE IS THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR DISTRICT FIVE. HOWEVER UM I DID REMIND DON IT THAT LAST COUNCIL MEETING ABOUT THIS, BUT I HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM HER. UM SO WE CAN DO ONE OR TWO THINGS GET JUST AN UP JUST A QUICK REFRESHER AND VOTED OUT OF COMMITTEE AND THEN IF SHE HAS QUESTIONS WE CAN BRING IT BACK IS THAT THE COMMITTEES? I'M GETTING THUMBS UP. OKAY SO IF YOU'RE JUST REFRESHES SHORT AND SWEET, AND THEN WE'LL WE'LL VOTE . SURE OKAY. YEAH, THIS IS 23 CAT, THREE TWENTIES FOR GRIFFITHS. DARDEN PROPERTIES LOOKING AT 2119 GRIFFITHS AVENUE . THIS IS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY HERE, UM, THE AFRICANS PROPOSING A RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT ON THE SITE. IT IS ONLY, UM, WHICH IS URBAN NEIGHBORHOOD. UM AND SO THE REQUEST IS TO HAVE A PLAN DEVELOPMENT IS TO UTILIZE THE PLAN DEVELOPMENT OPTION UNDER THE URBAN NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT IS A KIND OF A SPECIAL REQUEST UNDERNEATH THAT ZONING DISTRICT AND REQUIRES METRO COUNCIL APPROVAL. THAT'S WHY, UH, YOU KNOW, THIS CATEGORY THREE HAS BEEN SENT TO YOU. THEY ARE PROPOSING 16 UNITS ON THE SITE AND A SERIES OF BUILDINGS WHICH YOU WILL SEE ON THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN HERE. GRIFFIN SALMON IS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THIS PHOTO. YOU CAN SEE THAT THEY ARE PROPOSING SOME ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS ON THE SITE WITH CAR LIKE AN INTERIOR WALK AWAY AND OPEN SPACE AREAS AND PARKING COMING FROM THE AT THE REAR, LOCATED OFF OF CLEVELAND

[00:35:02]

AVENUE, WHICH KIND OF OPERATES LIKE AN ALLEY. UM THESE ARE SOME OF THE RENDERINGS THAT WERE PROVIDED BY THE AFRICAN AS PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT AS THE REQUESTED DEVELOPMENT. AND THEN THIS WAS HEARD AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION ON NOVEMBER 16TH. AND THEN THEIR MOTION WAS THE RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF THAT PLAN, AND THAT VOTE WAS NOT A ZERO. I'M SORRY. I FAILED TO GET EMOTION TO TAKE ON TABLE IN A SECOND. PROBABLY MOVED IN SECOND. IT'S ON TABLED. UM. IF I HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE LAST TIME SORRY, MAN. WE'VE ALREADY. WE'VE ALREADY DONE THAT.

[4. R-008-24 A RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW THE METRO LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE REGULATIONS WITH REGARD TO HOMELESS SHELTERS AND CRISIS SHELTERS. Action Required By: August 2024 Sponsors: Jecorey Arthur (I-4) ]

NIGHT TOO. I AM NUMBER FOUR IS A RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE COMPLAINING COMMISSION REVIEWED THE METRO LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE REGULATIONS WITH REGARD TO HOMELESS SHELTERS AND CRISIS SHELTERS. PROBABLY MOVED IN SECOND. WE'RE READY FOR DISCUSSION. ARE YOU READY? RIGHT ON TIME. THANK YOU SO MUCH. SO. THERE WAS AN AMENDMENT OF VERY MINOR AMENDMENT THAT SHOULD BE IN THE SYSTEM. HOPEFULLY THE CLERKS HAVE RECEIVED IT AND IT REALLY JUST UPDATES SOME DATA FROM THE COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS. IN THE UPDATE, IS THAT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE SHELTER SYSTEM. WE'RE MISSING 500 TO 600 BEDS EACH NIGHT, THE COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS ESTIMATES THAT NEARLY 1600 LOWER BILLIONS ARE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS ON ANY GIVEN NIGHT IN THE CITY ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 1000 EMERGENCY OVERNIGHT IN TRANSITIONAL SHELTER BEDS, SO WE JUST WANTED TO ADD THAT INFORMATION. WE THINK IT'S IMPORTANT AND VERY RELEVANT AS WE ASKED FOR THEM TO LOOK AT RECOMMENDATIONS TO UPDATE HOW WE REGULATE SHELTERS. THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE PROCESS. YOU PROBABLY KNOW WE DON'T HAVE TO ACCEPT WHATEVER THEY RECOMMEND. WE'RE SIMPLY ASKING THEM TO LOOK AT IT, AND THEN THEY'LL COME BACK IN THEIR 60 DAYS. WE'LL DISCUSS IT WILL DEBATE WILL BEAT EACH OTHER. WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT AND THEN HOPEFULLY DO SOMETHING THAT CAN HELP SHELTER MORE PEOPLE THAN WE CURRENTLY ARE ABLE TO. I'M OPEN FOR ANY QUESTIONS IF ANYONE HAS THEM, BUT I DO THINK THAT WE NEED TO VOTE TO LOOK AT THE MOST RECENT VERSION WITH THIS NEW, WHEREAS CLAUSE AMENDED IN IT. SO THE ONLY THING THAT'S ADDED IS THE NEW WHEREAS CLAUSE AND IT SHOULD BE UNDERLINED. YES THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT WE ADDED, WAS THAT, WHEREAS CLAUSE JUST UPDATED NUMBERS FROM THE COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS. COUNCIL MEMBER READ. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR LIKE TO ASK THE SPONSOR. WHAT IS IT THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO PROBABLY ARTICULATED IT, AND I DIDN'T QUITE GET IT. BUT WHAT IS IT YOU'RE TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH FROM THIS? WE WANT TO SEE IF THERE ARE REGULATIONS THAT WE CAN CHANGE TO MAKE IT EASIER TO OPEN SHELTERS AND I DIDN'T REALIZE YOU KNOW WHAT THE HURDLES WERE UNTIL WE SAT DOWN WITH THE COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS MEMBERS. WAYSIDE VOCAL KENTUCKY A NUMBER OF THEIR OTHER MEMBERS, AND WE STARTED TO TALK ABOUT WHEN THEY OPEN THEIR SHELTERS. AND WHAT THEY HAD TO GO THROUGH TO GET OPEN. SO IN THAT PROCESS, WE WANTED TO FOLLOW A SIMILAR PATH THAT WE TOOK WHEN WE CHANGED THE REGULATIONS FOR DAYCARES A FEW YEARS AGO, AND REALLY JUST LOOK AT THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND SEE IS THERE ANYTHING IN HERE THAT INHIBITS US FROM BEING ABLE TO OPEN UP SHELTER SPACE OR LOOKING AT THE STANDARDS THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE? ARE THOSE OUTDATED? DO WE NEED TO HAVE SOME THAT ARE MORE STRICT, SOME THAT ARE LESS STRICT. THE WORLD IS CHANGING AND A POST 2020 PANDEMIC WORLD. WE REALLY WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO SHELTER FOLKS, AND I DON'T KNOW THE LAST TIME THAT THE SHELTER REGULATIONS WERE UPDATED, BUT BASED ON THE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS AND THEIR MEMBERS, THERE IS A NEED FOR CHANGE, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE WE SEE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO STILL DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO SHELTER ON ANY GIVEN NIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I DON'T KNOW IF BRIAN IT WAS FEW.

WERE YOU HERE WHEN WE WHEN WE REDID THOSE FOR ALL TRANSITIONAL HOUSING AND SHELTERS, I DO KNOW

[00:40:05]

THAT WE DIDN'T MEET HERE WE MET. OFF SITE. THERE WAS A WHOLE GROUP INCLUDING THE HOME. UH, COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS AND SEVERAL OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. DO YOU? RIGHT YOU PROBABLY WEREN'T HERE A LITTLE BIT, TOO, THAT WOULD LIKE TRAVIS FACE HER ASSISTANT COUNTY ATTORNEY. SO WE DID A NUMBER OF SORT OF RELATED USES TRANSITIONAL HOUSING, BOARDING AND LODGING, HOUSING THOSE SORTS OF THINGS. I DON'T BELIEVE THE HOMELESS SHELTER. RAGS WERE ADDRESSED IN DETAIL, AND I THINK PART OF THAT WAS BECAUSE THE OTHER RIGS HAD ISSUES WITH THE BUILDING CODE THAT WE'RE TRYING TO KIND OF BRING THINGS INTO. COMPLIANCE. UM BUT I DON'T THINK HOMELESS SHELTERS WERE ADDRESSED IN DETAIL. AND I KNOW THIS. THIS RESOLUTION ALSO CALLS FOR MORE TEMPORARY OPTION OF CRISIS SHELTER IN CASE OF EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS AND THE LIKE.

THAT DOESN'T CURRENTLY EXIST. BUT JULIA MAY HAVE SOME MORE CONTEXT. JULIA WILLIAMS OFFICE OF PLANNING. SO THE HOMELESS UM. PART OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE THAT THAT DEALS WITH HOME HOMELESS SHELTERS THAT WAS LOOKED AT BACK IN. 1014 MAYBE 2012 AROUND THAT TIME. SO THOSE WERE UPDATED WHERE WE WORKED WITH SEVERAL OF THE PEOPLE MENTIONED BY COUNCILMAN AUTHOR SO. IT'S BEEN. IT'S BEEN A LITTLE BIT ABOUT 10 YEARS OR SO, 1012 YEARS SINCE WE'VE LOOKED AT THAT PORTION OF OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE. MY APOLOGIES. THAT WAS BEFORE MY TIME. I WAS REFERRING TO THE MORE RECENT MINUTES TO TRANSITIONAL HOUSING THE LIKES AND LIKE, ACTUALLY SAID, IT'S BEEN PROBABLY A DECADE. YEAH. I'VE BEEN HERE A MINUTE. YEAH YOU HAVE. IT WAS QUITE A WHILE AGO. I JUST REMEMBER WE ALL OF IT WAS DONE OFF SITE BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY CAME AND HELPED SUPPORT THE CHANGES THAT WE WERE LOOKING AT, UM, COUNCIL MEMBER, OWEN, AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO COUNCIL MEMBER RIGHT NOW. WEBBER. HE'S CAN'T GET IN THE QUEUE. SO COUNCIL MEMBER OWEN THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. UM I THINK IT'S A REALLY, REALLY GOOD IDEA. THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF PLACES WITHIN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND WITHIN REGULATIONS THAT WE OUGHT TO BE DOING THIS AND BECAUSE OF THE IMMEDIATE NEED AND NATURE OF THIS, I THINK MOVING THIS SEPARATELY. FORWARD IS A REALLY GOOD IDEA. JULIA DO YOU REMEMBER THE LAST TIME WE DID THIS? WHERE WE WHERE WE FOCUSED ON UM. ZONING REFOCUSED ON REGULATIONS OR WE FOCUSED ON WAS MOSTLY RELATED. I WOULD THINK THAT MOST OF THE DIFFICULTY HERE IS RELATED TO FIRE AND SAFETY ISSUES. THAT ARE HARD TO GET AROUND. SO DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT WAS KIND OF WHAT THINGS WERE ADDRESSED AT THAT TIME? I BELIEVE WE WERE LOOKING AT A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT. AND WHAT NEEDED TO BE INVOLVED IN THAT CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, WHICH INCLUDES HOW MANY BEDS WE ALSO LOOKED AT EMERGENCY SHELTERS. SO YOU KNOW WHEN WE HAVE, LIKE, SEVERELY COLD NIGHTS WHAT COULD BE USED AS AN EMERGENCY SHELTER? SO I BELIEVE THAT ALL OF THOSE REGULATIONS WERE PUT IN THAT I CAN'T SAY SPECIFICALLY TO YOUR QUESTION, THOUGH, OKAY? THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER RENO WEBER. I JUST WANT TO ECHO THE NEED FOR THIS. I KNOW THAT DURING THE RECENT WHITE FLAG EVENTS, SEVERAL OF THE CHURCHES IN OUR DISTRICT WANTED TO BE ABLE TO OPEN THEIR DOORS, BUT WE'RE REALLY UNCLEAR ABOUT WHAT THE BUT HOW THAT WOULD WORK, AND I THINK THERE'S SOME LONGER TERM ISSUES, PARTICULARLY AS CONGREGATION POPULATIONS DECLINE. PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR INNOVATIVE WAYS TO LIVE OUT THEIR FAITH. AND I THINK THIS IS REALLY GETTING SOME CLARITY FOR THEM WOULD BE REALLY HELPFUL, SO I'M FULLY IN SUPPORT AND HAPPY TO CO SPONSOR WITH THAT SUPPLE BUT EXCITED ABOUT SEEING THE RESULTS OF THIS. COUNCILMAN ARTHUR SINCE YOU'RE THE PRIMARY SPONSOR, COULD YOU ANSWER HIS QUESTION? HE WANTED TO BE ADDED AS A SPONSOR. YEAH I'M ALSO IN THE QUEUE. WAS JUST GONNA ADD TO TRAVIS MENTIONED THE CRISIS SHELTER OPTION. UM. I DON'T KNOW. IF YOU ALL SAW THE NEWS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN OHIO, THERE WAS A CHURCH THAT OPENED UP AS A TEMPORARY SHELTER. AND THEY ENDED UP GETTING FINE FOR ZONING VIOLATIONS. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S HAPPENING. MOVED WELL, I HOPE IT HASN'T HAPPENED IN LOUISVILLE, BUT THIS WOULD HELP MAKE SURE THAT THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN TO MOVE IF WE DO DEFINE AND ADD A NEW LAND USE FOR CRISIS SHELTER, WHICH WOULD ESSENTIALLY ALMOST BE THE SAME DEFINITION OF HOMELESS SHELTER, BUT INSTEAD OF JUST BEING A SPOT WHERE PEOPLE CAN COME STAY TEMPORARILY, IT WOULD BE A TEMPORARY SPOT WHERE PEOPLE CAN COME AND STAY TEMPORARILY. SO I JUST WANTED TO ASK SOME MORE CONTEXT OF WHAT WE'RE HOPING TO GET BACK. AS A RECOMMENDATION WHEN WE TALK ABOUT CRISIS, SHELTER VERSUS HOMELESS SHELTER. BEFORE WE GO FURTHER. WE NEED TO VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT. WE NEED A MOTION AND THEN A SECOND, PLEASE MOTION. PROBABLY MOVING SECOND

[00:45:06]

ON FAVOR OF THE AMENDMENTS IN THE FIRE BY SAYING I WAS OPPOSED BY LICENSING AND THE MOTION CARRIES. COUNCILMAN BAKER JUST ONE ECHO THE SENTIMENTS OF COUNCILMAN ARENA. WEBBER I THINK , UH, ONE GREAT WORK. TO THE SPONSORS OF THE BILL. I WOULD LOVE TO CO SPONSOR AND EFFORT AND I THINK AFTER THE PANDEMIC WHEN WE SAW BIG BOOM AFTER 2019 OF THE AMOUNT OF HOMELESS IN, WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO QUIT THE COALITION FOR HOMELESS WHERE ALL THE RESOURCES THEY NEED SO FULLY IN SUPPORT OF THIS. I THINK THIS IS THE FIRST OF MANY CONVERSATIONS OF HOW WE CAN PROVIDE CRISIS AND EMERGENCY SHELTERS. AND IF IT BE YOUR WILL SPONSOR BEING ADDED AS A CO SPONSOR. THANK YOU. WELL, THE CLERKS PLEASE, AND COUNCILMAN BAKER AND COUNCIL MEMBER UM RENO WEBER AS CO SPONSORS, AND I JUST HAVE ONE QUICK QUESTION. COUNSEL ARTHUR AND I UNDERSTAND WHY WE NEED TO HURRY THIS UP BECAUSE IT WITH THE LANGUAGE SAYS THE SHALL BE RETURNED TO THE COUNCIL IN 60 DAYS. UM CAN Y ALL MAKE THAT DEADLINE? I WAS GONNA ASK HER. WE'RE LOOKING FOR LIKE A FORMAL RECOMMENDATION FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION. OR WE JUST WANTING LIKE RESEARCH AND INFORMATION ON POSSIBLE CHANGES TO THE CODE THAT WE WOULD THEN TAKE THE PLANNING COMMISSION. WHAT CAN YOU SEND BACK WITHIN THE 60 DAYS ? IT WOULD BE TOUGH TO BRING LIKE A FORMAL LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE CHANGE BACK TO THE METRO CASTLE IN 60 DAYS. CAN WE DO 90? IT MAY BE. POLITICIANS 90 WOULD BE EASIER. I MEAN, IDEALLY, LIKE IF YOU LOOK AT LIKE A TIMEFRAME FOR LIKE A REZONING, IF YOU DO IF YOU HAVE ALL THE DUCKS IN A ROW, AND YOU CAN KIND OF HIT THAT 90 DAYS, LIKE 90 TO 120 IS WHAT WE WILL BE LOOKING AT THERE, BUT BUT I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE LIKE 60 DAYS WE HAVE 21 DAYS OF BUILT IN NOTICE. FOR CODE CHANGES. AND SO THAT'S THAT'S ONE OF THE CONCERNS I HAVE WITH 60 DAYS, BUT WE MAY BE ABLE TO DO SOMETHING. IF WE GET THINGS TOGETHER QUICKLY AND START MEETING WITH PEOPLE WE CAN. I THINK 90 DAYS WOULD BE MORE REASONABLE THAN 60 FOR SURE. GO AHEAD. RIGHT TO THE YOU SAID. YOU YOU GAVE KIND OF TWO OPTIONS. THE FIRST ONE WAS A FORMAL RECOMMENDATION, AND THAT'S DIFFICULT TO DO WITHIN THE 60 DAYS WITH YOU. CAN YOU SAY AGAIN? WHAT YOU SAID AFTER THAT? SURE. SO LIKE, I THINK IF YOU WANTED US TO, JUST LIKE, LOOK AT OUR CODE AND THEN FIND EXAMPLES FROM OTHER CODES AND SHOW WHAT MAYBE OTHER COMMUNITIES ARE DOING IN TERMS OF LIKE OFFERING THESE UP THROUGH, YOU KNOW, THROUGH THEIR THEIR ZONING CODES. WE CAN BRING THAT INFORMATION BACK TO YOUR REPORT. AND THEN IF YOU HAVE A PREFERRED METHOD, THEN THAT COULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE COULD THEN LIKE WORD CRAFT IN BRITAIN AND TAKE TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION AS A FORMAL RECOMMENDATION AFTER THAT, SO IT'S IT WOULD BE KIND OF A TWO PART. UH BROKEN INTO TWO PARTS, RIGHT? BECAUSE I THINK I THINK THERE ARE YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ADEQUATE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT AND MEET WITH THE RIGHT PEOPLE. YOU KNOW, AS WE CRAFT THIS, THIS NEW LANGUAGE, AND SO YOU KNOW, IT'S A YOU KNOW, MAYBE IT'S MAYBE IT'S 120 DAYS WITH A CHICKEN WITH METRO COUNCIL AT 60 DAYS TO TELL YOU WHAT WE FOUND, AND THEN WE GO FORWARD. WITH THE FORMAL RECOMMENDATION TO PLANNING COMMISSION AFTER THAT, SO LET ME MAKE SURE SO YOU'RE RECOMMENDING THAT WE DO THE FORMAL 120 DAYS, BUT IN 60 DAYS YOU CHECK IN AND LET US KNOW WHERE WE'RE AT. I THINK THAT WOULD GIVE US PLENTY OF TIME TO RESEARCH IT AND GET A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FORWARD. THEN WE CAN FIND EXAMPLES FROM OTHER COMMUNITIES AND THEN WE CAN WORK ON WHAT LANGUAGE WE NEED TO PUT INTO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE. COUNCILMAN ARTIST WANT TO ADD TWO THINGS ONE. I KNOW THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS WILL BE MORE THAN WILLING TO WORK WITH YOU ALL. AS FAR AS THE RESEARCH GOES INTO JUST MAKE THIS A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS AND ALSO WANT TO JUST THINK ABOUT THE BIGGER PICTURE IN A PERFECT WORLD. WE GET THOSE BACK IN THE 120 DAYS. WE FIGHT AND DEBATE IS COUNSELING. WE PASSED SOMETHING TO MAKE IT.

MAKE IT WHAT WE NEED TO MAKE IT. BY NEXT WINTER. I'M HOPING THAT NOBODY IS FORCED TO SLEEP ON THE STREETS, SO I APOLOGIZE FOR THE URGENCY OF THAT FELT LIKE IT WAS TOO SHORT. I'M JUST THINKING AHEAD AS FAR AS WE CAN. ABSOLUTELY AND I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND THAT. AND I THINK IF YOU KNOW, WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE YEAH. THE UH, THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF TIME SO THAT WE CAN DEDICATE THE RESOURCES THAT WE NEED TO BRING BACK WHAT YOU WANT. AND SO THAT'S THAT'S ALL THAT THAT'S WHAT MILDLY CONCERNED. I'M OKAY WITH THEM. SO YOU'RE OKAY, SO WE NEED A NEW LANGUAGE, RIGHT? YEAH. OKAY WELL, LET OUR COUNTY ATTORNEY WHO'S VERY GOOD AT IT.

WORDSMITHING DO THAT FOR US. WELL, I THINK THAT THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY COME BACK IN 60 DAYS FOR AN UPDATE. THIS IS WORKING ON THAT. I THINK THAT THE QUESTION IF COUNCIL DOES

[00:50:06]

WANT TO SEE THIS BEFORE IT GOES TO PUBLIC HEARING, THEN WE CAN BREAK IT UP INTO SIXTH DAY PERIODS. OTHERWISE WE COULD JUST GIVE THEM 100 20 DAYS AND GET SORT OF THE END RESULT. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WILL. PREFER A CHECK IN PART WAY THROUGH OR NOT. OKAY UM, IT LOOKS LIKE CALVIN BASH ON MY QUESTION BEFORE IT. GO AHEAD. COUNCIL MEMBER ABOUT SEAN. THANK YOU, MANAGER. THANK YOU, TRAVIS.

UM I HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS. FIRST OF ALL, WE'LL MAKE A STATEMENT LIKE THE CHICKEN POINT A LITTLE BIT BETTER, SO WE'RE NOT 120 DAYS IN AND THEY WERE ARGUING ON THE FLOOR OR WHATEVER TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS AND CHANGES. SO I THINK THAT'S THE BEST CASE SCENARIO. BUT COUNCILMAN ARTHUR, CAN YOU EXPRESSED TO ME. THIS PAST WHITE FLAG. WAS THERE ANY SPECIFIC ISSUES OR PROBLEMS THAT YOU HAD SEEN PERSONALLY? BECAUSE FROM WHAT I'VE GATHERED, I THINK WITH THE WHOLE MAYBE. HAVE DONE, YOU KNOW, AND I CAN SPEAK FOR THE SOUTH AND RIGHT. I THINK THEY DID A REALLY GREAT JOB AND GETTING THOSE HOUSES, INDIVIDUALS OFF THE STREETS AND IN THE SHELTER WITH, YOU KNOW, SPECIFIC MINISTRIES, ORGANIZATIONS AND CHURCHES WITHOUT ANY HOLDUPS OR RED FLAGS . CAN YOU ATTEST TO ANYTHING THAT YOU MAY HAVE ENCOUNTERED SPECIFICALLY? YOU ARE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH HOPE VILLAGE THAT'S A PART OF A NONPROFIT CALLED HOPE BUS. THEY WERE EMAILING CALLING AND BEGGING FOR FUNDS TO OPEN UP A TEMPORARY SHELTER. THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH FEEL LOUISVILLE ON A NUMBER OF OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. WHAT WE WANT TO DO IS MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH SHELTERS SO THAT WE AREN'T SCRABBLING LAST MINUTE TO TRY TO GET PEOPLE INSIDE WHENEVER THAT WEATHER HITS THAT'S ESSENTIALLY IT SO YES, WE DID NOTICE SOME ISSUES. I WAS KIND OF HAPHAZARDLY DONE. WE ALSO NOTICED SOME ISSUES EVEN DURING THE BUDGET CYCLE WHEN WE WERE ASKING, IS THERE EMERGENCY FUNDING? WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE BEING PUT UP IN HOTELS. EVERY YEAR. INSTEAD OF PAYING THE HOTEL. WHY NOT JUST HAVE A SHELTER THAT'S OPEN ALL YEAR ROUND INSTEAD OF PUTTING OUR TAX DOLLARS TOWARDS THAT HOTEL. SO WHAT? WE'RE TRYING TO SOLVE A FEW DIFFERENT ISSUES WITH WITH THIS, BUT YES, WE DID NOTICE SOME ISSUES. THIS LAST GO AROUND WITH THAT. THAT WEATHER EVENT WE HAD THANK YOU. I JUST WAS CURIOUS. GO AHEAD, TREVOR. SO I THINK THE WAY TO HANDLE THIS IS TO THAT LAST SENTENCE IN SECTION ONE. TO CHANGE IT TO READ PLANNING STAFF SHALL REPORT RESEARCH TO COUNSEL WITHIN 60 DAYS OF RECEIPT OF THIS RESOLUTION AND RETURN IT RECOMMENDATION FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION WITHIN 100 20 DAYS. I MOVED THAT MOTION. PROBABLY BEEN A SECOND. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE AMENDMENTS SIGNIFY BY SAYING, AYE. THAT WAS OPPOSED BY LIKE SCIENCE SEEN THE MOTION CARRIES ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. AND THIS IS A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A VOICE VOTE. SO ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING, AYE. THAT WAS OPPOSED BY LIKE SIGN HEARING, THEN IT WILL GO TO OLD BUSINESS BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN AN AMENDMENT TO THE TEXT. THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN. ARTHUR. AND WE GOT YOU JUST IN TIME TO GET BACK TO CLASS. YOU KNOW? OH YOU SHOULD HAVE SIGNED UP TO JOIN AGAIN. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER FIVE IS A RESOLUTION DIRECTING LANDMARKS COMMISSION STAFF TO

JUMP IN HERE, UM, LAST YEAR, I WAS MADE AWARE THAT LOUISVILLE METRO COUNCIL COULD PASS A RESOLUTION ASKING THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT TO LOOK AT THE PROPERTY AND DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT QUALIFIED TO BE A HISTORIC LANDMARK. AND SO I REACHED OUT TO SAVANNAH DAR WITH THE PLANNING OFFICE AND SHE HAD A DOCUMENT ALREADY PREPARED. WHERE, UM THEY HAD IDENTIFIED OVER 400 STRUCTURES PROPERTIES WITHIN LOUISVILLE METRO THAT THEY THOUGHT COULD QUALIFY FOR HISTORIC LANDMARK DESIGNATION.

AND SO, UM WE NOTICED THAT THESE THAT LIST WAS ALSO A LITTLE OUTDATED JUST BECAUSE OF THE REDISTRICTING TO JUST KIND OF THAT I THINK THAT ALSO PAINTS A PICTURE OF HER. HOW LONG THAT THIS HAS BEEN NEEDED TO BE DONE, BUT THE SAVANNAH WAS REALLY WONDERFUL AND UPDATING THAT AND SO WE HAVE THAT UPDATED LIST. AND ON IT BROKEN DOWN BY COUNCIL DISTRICT WE IDENTIFIED UM OVER 20 PROPERTIES IN DISTRICT 15 THAT WE FELT WOULD BE, UM GREAT CANDIDATES TO BE MADE INTO HISTORIC LANDMARKS. AND SO THIS IS THE FIRST OF THESE THREE THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT TODAY OR THE FIRST OF MANY THAT WILL BE GOING ON. WE DECIDED NOT TO DO IT IN ONE FELL SWOOP, JUST BECAUSE THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A LARGE BURDEN ON OUR PLANNING DEPARTMENT, BECAUSE THE PROCESS

[00:55:02]

FOR THIS AFTER WE PASSED THE RESOLUTION, THEY'LL BE GOING AND LOOKING AT IT AND DOING SOME STUFF ON THE BACK END, WHICH I'D INVITE SAVANNAH TO COME UP AND SPEAK TO AND I WILL TALK ABOUT EACH ONE OF THESE INDIVIDUALLY, BUT I KNOW THE QUESTION WILL COME UP. UM WHAT DOES THIS DESIGNATION MEAN? AND I THINK THAT THERE'S A LITTLE CONFUSION AS WELL. AND WHAT HIS HISTORIC LANDMARK DESIGNATION LOOKS LIKE, UM VERSUS, UM, KIND OF PRESERVATION DISTRICT. UM. UM THINGS, SO I THINK THAT THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF CONFUSION. SO I JUST WANT PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THIS DOES IN TERMS OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENT FOR THIS PROPERTY AND HOW CURRENT LANDOWNERS, UM IF THEIR PROPERTY IS DESIGNATED AS HISTORIC STRUCTURE THAN WHAT THAT MEANS FOR THEM GOING FORWARD. GO AHEAD, SIR. SAVANNAH DIRE HISTORIC PRESERVATION OFFICER.

UM WE DID CREATE THAT LIST IN HOUSE. IT WAS A REQUEST FROM COUNCIL FROM CAUTION NUMBER OF YEARS AGO. NOW PRE PANDEMIC, SO THAT'S WHERE MY BRAIN LIES, PRE PANDEMIC POST PANDEMIC. UM AND WE DID UPDATE THAT LIST AND HIS FIRST THREE R TWO ARE OWNED BY LOUISVILLE METRO GOVERNMENT AND ONE IS OWNED BY J. C. P. S SO IT'S ALSO INTERESTING FOR US TO START WITH THESE THAT ARE MORE PUBLICLY OWNED, RATHER THAN PRIVATELY OWNED PROPERTIES. AND REALLY THIS REQUEST. ASKS STAFF TO START THE PROCESS, SO WE CREATE A DESIGNATION REPORT. WE DO A LOT OF RESEARCH INTO EACH OF THESE PROPERTIES. AND THEN WE HOLD SEVERAL PUBLIC MEETINGS WITH THE LANDMARKS COMMISSION, WHERE ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC CAN COME TESTIFY WHETHER THEREFORE, AGAINST WHAT HAVE YOU AND THE COMMISSION THEN TAKES A LOOK AT THESE AND SEES IF THEY MEET OUR CRITERIA FOR BECOMING AN INDIVIDUAL MARK. AND OF THESE SITES DO BECOME INDIVIDUAL AND MARKS. REALLY THE ONLY THING THAT IT MEANS IS THAT THEY ARE THEN REQUIRED TO GO THROUGH A DESIGN REVIEW PROCESS IF CERTAIN CHANGES ARE PROPOSED, DOESN'T MEAN A BUILDING CAN'T BE MODIFIED. IT DOESN'T MEAN A SITE CAN'T BE REDEVELOPED. IT DOESN'T EVEN MEAN NECESSARILY THAT A SITE CAN'T BE DEMOLISHED. WE HAVE HAD LANDMARKS THAT HAVE END UP BEING DEMOLISHED IF THEY HAVE TO BE IT JUST MEANS THAT THERE IS A PUBLIC REVIEW PROCESS THAT HAS PUT IN PLACE THAT PROVIDES, UM NOT ONLY A DEEPER LEVEL OF REVIEW WITH A DESIGN GUIDELINES, BUT ALSO THAT VERY PUBLIC TESTIMONY SIDE TO IT. THANK YOU AND I DID. SINCE IT DOES COME UP. THE PROPERTY OWNERS SAY IF THERE WAS A STRUCTURE ON THAT PROPERTY, THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO CHANGE THEIR WINDOWS OUT TO WHATEVER WINDOWS THEY WANTED TO IF THEY HAD A HISTORIC LANDMARK DESIGNATION. CORRECT YES, THEY WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE DESIGN GUIDELINE PROCESS. BUT YES, IT'S NOT A NO. IT'S A LET'S WORK THROUGH THIS PROCESS TOGETHER AND MEET THE GUIDELINES. AND I THINK THAT THIS IS JUST SO IMPORTANT TO PRESERVING LOUISVILLE'S HISTORY AND TELLING OUR STORY AND SO AGAIN, IT'S NOT PUTTING A LOT OF LIMITATIONS ON WHAT CAN BE DONE WITH THE PROPERTY. BUT IT'S JUST I THINK FOR US AS A CITY, SAYING THESE ARE IMPORTANT TO TELLING LOUISVILLE STORY AND SO I WOULD DEFINITELY ENCOURAGE MY OTHER COLLEAGUES TO LOOK AT THIS LIST CIRCULATED AND LOOK AT WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO THEM AND SEEING HOW WE CAN PROTECT THESE SPACES. AND THEN I GUESS ARE THERE ANY HARD TO TAKE YOUR JOB? IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PROCESS, AND THEN I CAN I DON'T I DON'T KNOW ANY WOULD LIKE ME TO DIVE INTO THE WHEEL MONS BENCH. THIS MAY BE JUMPING AHEAD, BUT THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR, UM ONE AS THE PERSON WHO REPRESENTS A HISTORICAL LANDMARK PRESERVATION DISTRICT, EXTREMELY EXCITED ABOUT THE WORK THAT YOUR OFFICE IS DOING, UM, COUNCILMAN CHAPEL. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS RESOLUTION. I DO HAVE JUST A SIMPLE QUESTION IS SOMEONE WHO PLAYED FOOTBALL, UH IN COLLEGE AND UM, IN HIGH SCHOOL AS IT RELATES TO THE MANUAL STADIUM BECAUSE I KNOW THE GAME IS ALWAYS CHANGING, AND I KNOW IT JUST DEEPER REVIEW. HOW DEEP IS THAT PROCESS? GO AND I KNOW THIS MAY SOUND LIKE A SILLY QUESTION. BUT I KNOW STADIUMS GO FROM GRASS FIELD TURF FIELDS. YOU KNOW THE FACADE, ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF, AND, UM, FOOTBALL WE CANNOT IGNORE IS PRETTY HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL IS PRETTY IMPORTANT. AND SO FOR THOSE WHO ARE WATCHING AT HOME, NOT NECESSARILY EVEN FOR ME. CAN YOU JUST GUIDE THEM ON? YOU KNOW WHAT IS THAT DEEP DIVE LOOK LIKE AND, UM AGAIN WHY IT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE THAT AFFORD TO BE LANDMARK. THANK YOU. ABSOLUTELY SO YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE MANUAL STADIUM SPECIFICALLY. AND SO WHEN WE THINK ABOUT THAT WE'VE. DO YOU WANT ME TO GO AHEAD OR JUST LET US FINISH THIS ONE? APOLOGIES CHAIR, MADAM CHAIR. I THOUGHT I WAS JUMPING IN READ. OH, I DON'T WANT TO PREEMPT COUNCILMAN BAKER IF HE HAS MORE, DAD, OKAY? UH NUMBER ONE DOES THAT LIST YOU SAY IT'S STILL EXISTS? YES, UPDATED. IT

[01:00:02]

HAS BEEN UPDATED WITH THE CURRENT COUNCIL DISTRICTS. YES. OKAY. WOULD YOU PLEASE SO THAT I WOULD THINK THAT WE WOULD ALL WANT TO SEE THAT. SO PLEASE. THANK YOU. THIS WHATEVER IT IS THAT WE'RE VOTING ON HERE TODAY WILL NOT PREEMPT IN ANY WAY THE REGULAR PROCESS, IT STILL HAS TO HAVE A PREREQUISITE NUMBER OF SIGNATURES FROM AREA RESIDENTS, ETCETERA, ETCETERA. SO, NO. UM HOW TO START A DESIGNATION PROCESS CAN HAPPEN IN ONE OF THREE WAYS, AND THAT'S AN OWNER REQUESTS THAT THEIR PROPERTY BE CONSIDERED FOR DESIGNATION. A COUNCIL MEMBER SUBMITS A RESOLUTION THAT'S PASSED BY COUNCIL THAT STARTS THE PROCESS OR THE PETITION PROCESS SO THERE WOULD NOT BE A PETITION REQUIREMENT. THIS WOULD JUST START THE PROCESS. BUT THEN EVERYTHING ELSE THAT WE HAVE TO DO PROCESS WISE STILL HAPPENS SO EVERYONE IS STILL NOTIFIED.

THEY'RE STILL PROPERTY OWNER MEETINGS. THERE ARE STILL PUBLIC HEARINGS ALL OF THAT, BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN NUMBER OF AREA RESIDENTS THAT WOULD SIGN A PETITION OR NOT.

OKAY OKAY, I GET IT NOW. BECAUSE WE'RE PREEMPTING THAT GOT IT. OKAY. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER, ARTHUR. I'M LOOKING AT THE LIST. COULD YOU JUST TELL US WHAT THE HIGHLIGHTED BLUE LOCATIONS MEAN THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT ARE NOT CURRENTLY ON OUR WEBSITE. SO ON THE OFFICE OF PLANNING WEBSITE, THERE IS A STORY MAP THAT WE CREATED. WHEN THIS LIST WAS VERY FIRST PUBLISHED. IT ALSO STILL HAS THE OLD COUNCIL DISTRICTS ON IT. AND THOSE WERE PROBABLY 250 OR SO BUT AS WE GOT INTO THE LIST, WE KEPT GOING. THERE WAS RENEWED INTEREST IN THIS LIST. AND SO THOSE 400 HAVE NOT BEEN FULLY UPDATED IN THAT STORY MAP YET, SO THAT'S WHY THEY'RE HIGHLIGHTED IN BLUE. IT'S A WORK IN PROGRESS LIST IF YOU WILL, OKAY, AND I KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT THIS IN PRIVATE, BUT I JUST WANT TO SHARE IT OUT FOR THE PUBLIC. COULD YOU TALK ABOUT HOW THIS IMPACTS IF SOMEONE WANTED TO GET ON THE NATIONAL REGISTRY? ABSOLUTELY SO IF A PROPERTY IS ALREADY LISTED IN THE NATIONAL REGISTER, VERIFY PROPERTY IS LOCALLY DESIGNATED, BUT THEY'RE NOT BOTH. IT HELPS STREAMLINE THE PROCESS FOR EITHER WAY, BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALREADY DONE THE RESEARCH. YOU'VE ALREADY UNDERGONE THAT REALLY LARGE HURDLE OF UNDERSTANDING THE PROPERTY BECAUSE THAT'S REQUIRED FOR NATIONAL REGISTER, WHICH IS A FEDERAL SORT OF HONORABLE IF YOU WILL, AND IT'S REQUIRED LOCALLY AS WELL. SO IT'S A STREAMLINING OF THAT PROCESS. IT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT JUST TO POTENTIAL STREAMLINING. I HAVE A QUESTION, AND WHEN WE GET FINISHED WITH ALL THREE OF THESE AS IT FOR ABOUT AN HISTORIC LANDMARKS TO OKAY, OKAY, OKAY. ANYONE ELSE HAVE A QUESTION ON THIS PARTICULAR RESOLUTION? WHAT I'M JUST GO IN AND SAY THAT THIS WAS A SCULPTURE THAT WAS BUILT BY CANADIAN DELL AND IT WAS ERECTED IN 1897, AND IT WAS COMMISSIONED BY THE KENTUCKY DIVISION OF LEAGUE OF AMERICAN WHEELMAN. IT WAS A BICYCLING CLUB, AND THEY WERE CELEBRATING THE CONNECTION BETWEEN DOWNTOWN LEVEL AND THEY'RE QUITE PARK. AND SO THIS PARTICULAR SCULPTURE WAS DEDICATED TO A MAN NAMED A D ROUGH. AND IN 1893. I BELIEVE IN THAT THE AGE OF 60 SOMETHING HE BICYCLES. ALL THE WAY FROM LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY TO YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, WHICH I CAN'T IMAGINE THE CONDITIONS OF THAT IN MODERN TIMES. NONETHELESS IN THE 18 HUNDREDS, PROBABLY WITH LIKE A WOOLEN SUIT IN A VERY RUDIMENTARY BIKE. UM SO IT. ENID IS LOUISVILLE SCULPTURE SCULPTOR AND SHE IS OBVIOUSLY A FEMALE. AND SO IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE ARE HONORING HER BY LANDMARKING, ONE OF HER SCULPTURES, AND IT SITS. IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH WAGNER'S PHARMACY AND DISTRICT, 15 RIGHT NEXT TO CHURCHILL DOWNS, THERE'S KIND OF A POCKET PARK. AND THAT'S WHERE THIS SITS. IT'S QUITE LITERALLY A BUNCH. I WAS TRYING TO LOOK IT UP TO SEE A PICTURE OF IT, BUT I COULDN'T WELL, YOU KNOW, I THINK I THINK IT'S LIKE THEY SAY BEAUTY IS IN THE MIND OF THE BEHOLDER. I JUST THINK THAT I'VE SEEN IN OTHER CITIES WHERE THEY'VE TAKEN HISTORIC LANDMARKS AND INCORPORATED THEM INTO A NEW DEVELOPED WITHIN THE NEW DEVELOPMENT. IT'S REALLY COOL BECAUSE IT'S LIKE THE PAST MEETS THE PRESENT AND THEY CAN COEXIST AND THEY CAN CALL IT EXISTS VERY WELL TOGETHER. ABSOLUTELY AND I DO ALSO WANT TO SAY THAT OLMSTEAD PARKS CONSERVANCY SINCE THIS DOES SIT ON. SOUTHERN PARKWAY. JUST ABOUT IT. I HAD MONEY IN THE BUDGET LAST YEAR TO GET SOME REVAMPING, AND SO SOME PLANTINGS AND SOME CONSERVATION WORK AS WELL TO THE BENCH, AND SO THERE IS INTEREST IN THE CONSERVANCY AS WELL AS OTHER PEOPLE AND PRESERVING THIS SPACE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING ALL THROUGH THIS FORWARD. THIS IS A GREAT IDEA. ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE MOVE ON. IT'S A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A VOICE VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING I WAS OPPOSED BY LIKE, SIGN HEARING, THEN THIS

[01:05:05]

WILL GO TO IT GOES TO YOUR CONSENT CALENDAR UNLESS YOU WANTED TO GO TO OLD BUSINESS.

CONSENT. OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY, NOW SAVANNAH. YOU CAN TALK ABOUT. THE MANUAL STADIUM. AFTER

[6. R-005-24 A RESOLUTION DIRECTING LANDMARKS COMMISSION STAFF TO BEGIN THE LANDMARKS REVIEW PROCESS FOR THE HISTORIC MANUAL STADIUM LOCATED AT 1230 EAST BURNETT AVENUE. Action Required By: August 2024 Sponsors: Jennifer Chappell (D-15) ]

WE APPROVE IT. RESOLUTION DIRECTING LANDMARKS COMMISSION STAFF TO BEGIN THE LANDMARKS REVIEW PROCESS FOR THE HISTORIC MANUAL STADIUM. LOCATED AT 1230 EAST BURNET AVENUE. PROPERLY MADE A SECOND. WE'RE READY FOR DISCUSSION. GO AHEAD. DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU WANTED TO ADD? BEFORE WE ANSWER HIS QUESTION. OH, I WAS JUST GOING TO GIVE A LITTLE OVERVIEW SO MANUAL BEFORE IT HAD ITS OWN STADIUM SHARED AN ATHLETIC FIELD WITH MALE HIGH SCHOOL. THEY WENT ON TO GET THEIR OWN STADIUM, WHICH OPENED IN 1924, AND OF COURSE THAT HAS HOUSED FOR MANY YEARS OF THE MALE MANUAL RIVALRY THAT WE SEE EVERY YEAR AND FOR A WHILE, UP UNTIL ABOUT MAYBE A DECADE OR SO AGO, AND CENEX WAS ABLE TO BUILD THEIR OWN FACILITIES. CNX ALSO SHARED THAT AREA THAT'S BASE WITH WITH MANUAL HIGH SCHOOL, AND IT'S UM REALLY INTERESTING PIECE IN DISTRICT 15, EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T HAVE A HI, AJAY CPS HIGH SCHOOL OR ANY HIGH SCHOOL. FOR THAT MATTER. WE DO HAVE ONE OF THEIR ATHLETIC FIELDS. AND SO IT'S A CROWN JEWEL OF SCHNITZEL. BERGEN, ALSO OF, UM DISTRICT 15 SO I'M EXCITED TO SEE IT PRESERVED. GREAT GO AHEAD. SAVANNAH ANSWER.

COUNCILMAN BAKER'S EARLIER QUESTION, AND WHEN WE LOOK AT PROPOSED CHANGES TO ANY LANDMARK SITE, WE SEE WHAT THAT FULL SCOPE OF WORKERS AND IF WE HAVE PURVIEW BASED ON OUR ORDINANCE OVER SOME OF THOSE CHANGES ARE, FOR EXAMPLE. WE WOULDN'T EVEN REVIEW THAT THEY CAN CHANGE OUT THE TURF. THEY CAN DO ANYTHING THEY WANT WITH THE TURF. THEY COULD PAINT THE TURF. THEY CAN.

THEY CAN PAVE IT. WE WOULDN'T REALLY EVEN LOOK AT THAT. IT'S REALLY THINKING ABOUT CHANGES TO THE STRUCTURE, SO IT'S REALLY THAT GATE ENTRY THAT YOU SEE THAT MAIN HISTORIC GAIT THAT WE WOULD LOOK TO BE PRESERVED. EVEN IF THE STANDS NEEDED TO BE CHANGED OUT. THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD PROBABLY REQUIRE REVIEW. BUT WE WOULDN'T REALLY IT WOULD JUST BE A FREE APPLICATION AND A REVIEW JUST TO STAY AS PART OF THE LANDMARKS HISTORY, BUT IT WOULD NOT BE ANYTHING CONTROVERSIAL OR TOO RESTRICTIVE AT ALL. JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU. AND AGAIN, THAT QUESTION IS MORE FOR YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I AM RIGHT NEXT DOOR IN DISTRICT SIX OR MANUAL RESIDES AND SO IT'S GOOD FOR PEOPLE AT HOME TO BE ABLE TO SEE THAT. YOU KNOW, I GET THE HISTORIC PRESIDENT OF THE FACADE THAT GAY INJURY. IT IS DEFINITELY A LANDMARK. I'M I'M SAD AS IN DISTRICT 15 IN THAT DISTRICT SIX, BUT AGAIN. THOSE QUESTIONS THAT WHAT THEY WILL COME UP AS YOU GET MORE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. THINGS LIKE THAT. SO THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WORK THAT YOU ARE DOING ON THIS AND THANK YOU, COUNCILOR CHAPEL. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. SEEING THAT, AND THIS IS A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A VOICE VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING , AYE AYE, THOSE OPPOSED BY LIKE SIGN HEARING NONE. THE MOTION CARRIES AND THIS WILL GO TO

[7. R-006-24 A RESOLUTION DIRECTING LANDMARKS COMMISSION STAFF TO BEGIN THE LANDMARKS REVIEW PROCESS FOR THE HISTORIC IROQUOIS AMPHITHEATHER LOCATED AT 1000 AMPHITHEATER ROAD. Action Required By: August 2024 Sponsors: Jennifer Chappell (D-15) ]

CONSENT CALENDAR. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER SEVEN IS A RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE LANDMARKS COMMISSION STAFF TO BEGIN THE LANDMARKS REVIEW PROCESS FOR THE HISTORIC TURQUOISE EMPATHY OR LOCATED AT 1000 AMPHITHEATER ROAD. PROBABLY MAYBE A SECOND. WE'RE READY FOR THIS. PEG COUNCILWOMAN CHAPEL. SURE UM, AND I WOULD BE REMISS TO NOT GIVE MY PARENTS A SHOUT OUT THERE. UM GRADUATES OF MANUAL AND SIGN UP. THEY'RE VERY PROUD OF THAT. AND SO I JUST WANT TO SAY HI, MOM AND DAD. HI, BARLOW AND CAROL. UM SO THE, UM NEXT ONE IN THE FINAL ONE THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE PRESENTING TODAY, ALL OF THESE AND I, ESPECIALLY THIS ONE. I GET THE WHEN I HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT PASSING THESE GETTING THESE RESOLUTIONS IN FRONT OF COUNCIL.

PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THAT'S NOT A LANDMARK YET. AND SO I THINK THAT A LOT OF THESE ARE KIND OF COMMON SENSE AND I ONE OF THOSE IS THE AIR. QUITE AMPHITHEATER, WHICH SITS IN, UM AEROQUIP PARK, AND SO IT WAS A WORKS PROGRESS ADMINISTRATION PROJECT AND IT OPENED IN 1938. AND IT WAS AMAZINGLY CONSTRUCTED IN 75 DAYS , AND IT COSTS $50,000. SO IT WAS. GREAT PLACE FOR THEATER PRODUCTION FOR A REALLY LONG TIME AND A DESTINATION FOR LOUISVILLE, WHICH IT CONTINUES TO BE, BUT IN 1961, THE CITY TOOK OVER OPERATION OF IT, AND SO, UM, OBVIOUSLY IT'S EXPANDED QUITE A BIT SINCE THAT SINCE 1937 AND WE HAVE REALLY WONDERFUL NATIONAL ACTS THAT COME AND PERFORM THERE AS WELL AS I'VE BEEN TO AS GODZILLA LAST YEAR AT YOUR QUEEN TAMPA THEATER , I'VE SEEN BOXING AT YEAR COY MPA THEATER SHAKESPEARE, AND IT'S JUST A GREAT WAY FOR US TO BRING BUT THE ARTS INTO THE SOUTH END, SO I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO ITS CONTINUED

[01:10:02]

SUCCESS. I WAS JUST SHOWING COUNCILMAN REED THAT PICTURE THAT I SENT TO YOU THAT EMPATHY, ATTAR, AND IT WAS REALLY WEIRD BECAUSE I'M WHEN I WAS READING THE TENTATIVE AGENDA HAD JUST JOINED THIS GROUP OF LOUISVILLE PAST AND THAT PICTURE POPPED UP ON MY ON MY FEET. ON FACEBOOK WAS JUST ADD THAT I THINK OH, LOOK, I HAD HAD TO SHOW IT BECAUSE I THOUGHT SHE'S PROBABLY NOT ON THIS GROUP. SINCE THIS IS A FAIRLY NEW GROUP THAT THIS PICTURE SHOWED UP FROM THE 19 THIRTIES, AND IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL PHOTO BECAUSE IT HAD FOUNTAINS IN THE FRONT OF THE STAGE. AND SO IT'S KIND OF CASCADING WATER IN FRONT OF THE STAGE AT ALL TIMES, BUT IT ALSO VASTLY LOOK DIFFERENT BECAUSE THERE WASN'T A STRUCTURE OVER TOP OF IT. AND SO LUCKILY WE HAVE THAT TOO.

PROTECT US FROM THE ELEMENTS NOWADAYS, BUT IT HAS GONE THROUGH MANY, MANY A FACELIFT.

IT'S JUST THIS REALLY NEAT, YOU KNOW. OKAY ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? I SEE NO ONE IN THE QUEUE. THIS IS A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A VOICE VOTE ALL IN FAVOR OF THE RESOLUTION SIGNIFY BY SAYING, AYE. THAT WAS OPPOSED BY LIKE SIGN HEARING ON THE MOTION PASSES, AND THIS WILL GO TO OLD BUSINESS AND WHAT I WAS GONNA ASK YOU. SAVANNAH IS THERE'S A AN OLD SPRINGHOUSE PROBABLY HEARD ME TALK ABOUT THIS. JUST RECENTLY, THE SUMMER WENT, THE ALCOHOLIC WOMEN'S CLUB ACTUALLY SOLD IT TO THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THAT WOULD BE INTERESTED IN MAYBE GETTING YOU IN CONTACT WITH SOMEONE TO HAVE THAT MARKED HISTORIC BECAUSE IT DATES BACK TO WHEN THERE WAS NOTHING IN OAK ALONE. IT WAS JUST NOTHING BUT FARMLAND THAT WENT FROM HERE ALL THE WAY OUT TO FROM PERSONAL WAY OUT PAST DIXIE HIGHWAY, AND IT IS IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION TO BE THAT OLD AND IT'S NEAT. YOU DON'T SEE THESE THINGS EVERY DAY, AND IT'S JUST SO ABSOLUTELY. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU GOT A CHANCE TO SIP ANY PICTURES OF IT OR NOT, OR STONE. YEAH IT'S LIKE CUT STONE. I THINK I'VE SEEN IT. IT'S AMAZING . IT'S AMAZING THAT IT'S IN THAT GOOD OF SHAPE. I MEAN, UH, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU KNOW THE LOWLANDS THAT USED TO FLOOD A LOT, SO IT'S REALLY AN FANTASTIC SLEEP TO BE THAT LONG. THANK YOU, SAVANNAH. BUT YOU HAD MENTIONED DAIRY CATTLE. UH IN LOUISVILLE. AND IF YOU LOOK AT OLD PICTURES OF MANUAL STADIUM, IT WAS THERE WEREN'T A LOT OF HOUSES THAT WERE BUILT INTO THE CELL. BERG AT THAT TIME THEY REALLY KIND OF TOOK OFF 1920.

YOU CAN SEE THAT CHANGE IN ARCHITECTURE BECAUSE MY HOUSE WAS BUILT IN 1889, AND IT IS A CAMELBACK SHOTGUN. BUT IF YOU MOVE A LITTLE BIT FURTHER OUT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, YOU SEE A LOT MORE CRAFTSMAN STYLE BUNGALOW HOUSES, AND SO YOU CAN DEFINITELY TELL BY THE ARCHITECTURE WHERE THAT WAS, BUT GOLDBERG WAS A VERY BIG DAIRY FARM COMMUNITY, AND, UM, MANUAL STADIUM ACTUALLY USED TO BE CALLED MILKMAN'S FIELD BECAUSE IT WAS SO, UM SO A ROUNDED BY DAIRY CATTLE, SO I THINK THAT'S THAT'S AN INTERESTING PIECE OF OUR HISTORY AND AT ONE POINT IN TIME TEXAS AVENUE AND SCHNITZEL BERG WAS THE COUNTY LINE FOR JEFFERSON COUNTY. AND SO NOW IT GOES. BEYOND WHERE I KNOW IT TO GO. UM AND SO IT'S JUST CRAZY TO THINK ABOUT HOW HOW MUCH OUR CITY HAS GROWN IN THAT TIME. AND SO NOW WE'LL TELL YOU THAT MY DAD GRADUATED FROM ME. ALSO, THEY THE OLD MANUAL STADIUM. BACK IN BACK IN THE DAY. WE HAVE NO OTHER BUSINESS. I'M SORRY.

CONSENT CALENDAR. UM NO BUSINESS IN FRONT OF US. WE WILL REMAIN A GEORGE UNTIL OUR NEXT MEETING.

[Adjournment Note: Agendas are followed at the discretion of the Chair. While an item may be listed, it does not mean all items will be heard and/or acted upon by the Committee.]
