ALL RIGHT, COUNCILMAN PARKER, THIS CAME OUT OF YOUR COMMITTEE. YOU HAVE THE FLOOR, MADAM. YES. THANK YOU. I BELIEVE COUNCILMAN SAM WOULD PROBABLY LIKE TO SPEAK TO THIS.

I BELIEVE, COUNCILMAN, TO BE SPEAKING TO THIS INCORRECT OR CORRECT? YES. YES, PLEASE.

THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. WE ARE HAVE BEEN ASKED BY THE LMPD COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT TEAM, WHO TRAVELS ACROSS ALL 26 DISTRICTS SHOWCASING ALL OF THE LMPD RETIRED CARS, HELICOPTERS AND OTHER TOYS THAT THEY'VE GOT TO SHOWCASE FOR THE YOUTH IN OUR COMMUNITIES. THE ASK WAS, I THINK IS $8,500 TO REPLACE THE TRAILER FOR THE HELICOPTER THAT THEY SHOWCASE AT THE FAIR, AND ALL OF THE OTHER FESTIVITIES. YOUR SUPPORT ON THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. AND JUST FOR THE RECORD, THE ASK WAS $8,050. SO CORRECT FOR 50 HEAD NOW ALREADY. ALRIGHT, LET ME SEE WHO'S IN MY QUEUE. COUNCILWOMAN CHAPPELL, YOU GOT THE FLOOR? SURE. THANK YOU. I SHOULD HAVE ASKED THESE QUESTIONS IN COUNCIL OR IN COMMITTEE, BUT I WAS NOT PREPARED TO DO SO. I THINK IF I WAS THAT PREPARED IN COMMITTEE, I'D BE MORE HIGH STRUNG THAN I ALREADY AM. AND MY FAMILY WOULD HATE ME. BUT LMPD WASN'T PRESENT THEN, AND I DON'T THINK LMPD IS PRESENT NOW, AND I JUST I WANTED A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS ANSWERED, BUT I GUESS CLARIFICATION IF THAT IS KNOWN ON THIS HELICOPTER, THIS IS THE ONE THAT'S BEEN RETIRED FOR A LONG TIME AND HASN'T FLOWN IN THE AIR FOR A LONG TIME, AND IT'S THE ONE THAT IT IT'S NOT ONE WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT RECENTLY, I GUESS IS THE QUESTION. COUNCILMAN. I CAN ANSWER THAT. YES, THAT IS CORRECT. IT'S THE HELICOPTER

[01:15:03]

THAT HAS BEEN RETIRED FOR QUITE SOME TIME. IT IS NOT THE NEW ONE THAT YOU ALL HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT. THE TRAILER THAT THIS HELICOPTER SITS ON IS FALLING APART, AND THE CUSTOM TRAILER IS GOING TO BE BUILT FOR THIS HELICOPTER SPECIFICALLY TO STORE ALL OF ITS WINGS AND PROPELLERS AND ALL THE STUFF AND TOOLS TO PUT IT TOGETHER, TAKE IT APART WITHOUT RINKY DINK ING IT TOGETHER AS THEY HAVE IN THE PAST. SO THIS IS GOING TO MAKE IT LOOK WAY MORE PROFESSIONAL AND AND EASIER TO TRANSPORT TO EVENTS AND FESTIVITIES. SURE.

AND THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION. MY COMMENTS, I GUESS WHILE I HAVE THE FLOOR, IS JUST BECAUSE WE. THIS HAS BEEN A LARGE POINT OF DISCUSSION IN OUR LAST TWO BUDGET CYCLES IS THE LMPD HELICOPTERS, AND I BELIEVE AT ONE POINT LMPD HAD THREE HELICOPTERS. BUT IN 2024, LMPD ALLEGEDLY ONLY HAD ONE HELICOPTER. AND THAT YEAR WE ALSO AWARDED THEM $4 MILLION FOR TO PURCHASE TWO NEW HELICOPTERS. AND THEY HAD SAID IN THAT THAT THE CURRENT HELICOPTER, THE ONE HELICOPTER THAT THEY HAD REACHED THE END, AND THIS IS A DIRECT QUOTE, REACHED THE END OF ITS USEFUL LIFE AND WILL BE SOLD. AND I WAS JUST CURIOUS WHAT THAT SALE PRICE WAS, BECAUSE I HEARD THAT IT DID SELL. I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE HAS THAT INFORMATION, BUT THERE IS A STIPULATION IN THE BUDGET THAT WE PASSED THAT SAID ALLOCATION OF SALE PROCEEDS ABOVE THE ESTIMATED SALES PRICE MUST BE APPROVED BY METRO COUNCIL, BUT I DON'T RECALL AND I COULD BE COMPLETELY MISTAKEN. I DON'T RECALL SEEING THAT MONEY COME BEFORE COUNCIL, BUT I ALSO DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE ESTIMATED SALES PRICE WAS AND IF IT WAS SOLD FOR UNDER THAT OR ABOVE THAT. BECAUSE IF IT WAS UNDER THAT, IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THEY NEEDED TO COME BEFORE COUNCIL. BUT I'M ALSO WONDERING HOW LONG THIS HAS BEEN. SOMETHING THIS TRAILER NEED HAS BEEN PRESENT BECAUSE IT WOULD BE REALLY GREAT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT SELF SUFFICIENCY, AND ESPECIALLY WHEN I HEAR OTHER COLLEAGUES SAYING, LMPD GETS A LOT OF MONEY FROM METRO COUNCIL WHEN WE HAVE VERY LIMITED FUNDS, AND HOW CAN WE REMEDY THAT, MAYBE EVEN AT A FULL BUDGET. AND SO, KNOW, HOW LONG WAS THIS NEED PRESENT? AND COULD THE SALE FROM THAT HELICOPTER HAVE UNDER $10,000 FOR THIS NEW TRAILER THAT WE HAD? AND JUST ALSO, WHILE I'M TALKING ABOUT HELICOPTERS, LAST, IN THIS PAST BUDGET THAT WE APPROVED, THERE WAS A CONTRACT FOR OVER $1.5 MILLION FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE HELICOPTER THE PREVIOUS YEAR. IT WAS RIGHT UNDER $400,000. AND THAT IS A VERY ODD INCREASE IN COST. AND I THINK THAT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE ALSO NEED TO BE PRESENT MIND OF, AND ALSO WONDERING IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO BE PAYING FOR. THERE'S BEEN A POINT OF ORDER CALLED BY COUNCILMAN HUDSON ONGOING. I BELIEVE THAT THE MOTION ON THE FLOOR IS ABOUT A TRAILER. I'D LIKE TO KEEP THE DISCUSSION ON THE TRAILER, PLEASE. I THINK IT'S ABOUT POLICE HELICOPTERS. I THINK THIS THIS MOTION IS ABOUT SPENDING MONEY ON A TRAILER FOR A POLICE HELICOPTER. FOR A RETIRED POLICE HELICOPTER? YES. NOT A NEW HELICOPTER THAT'S OUT THERE. NOT ROTATING HELICOPTERS. A NONFUNCTIONING TRAILER OR TRAILER TO HAUL AROUND A NONFUNCTIONING. SO WE REALLY HE'S HE'S KIND OF ON POINT AND THAT IS WE GOT TO STAY ON TARGET HERE ON DISCUSSION. COUNCILMAN WINKLER, I BELIEVE YOU'VE GOT SOME ANSWERS TO THAT DIATRIBE OF QUESTIONS. WELL, SPECIFICALLY THE BUDGET QUESTION OF THE HELICOPTER. SO IN THE PRE SO NOT THIS LAST BUDGET, BUT THE BUDGET. THE YEAR BEFORE WE HAD ALLOCATED, WE HAD ESTIMATED THE SALE OF THE HELICOPTER AT HALF $1 MILLION. COUNCILMAN KRAMER CAN GIVE ME A NOD IF HE REMEMBERS. BUT I ASKED THIS QUESTION I BELIEVE WE SOLD IT FOR 250. WE ENDED UP GETTING SOLD WELL BELOW THE 500,000 THAT I KNOW. I BELIEVE 250 IS CORRECT. IT COULD HAVE BEEN 350, IT COULD HAVE BEEN 150. BUT I REMEMBER IT COMING BACK WAS WAS, WELL, LESS THAN THE HALF A MILLION THAT WE HAD BUDGETED FOR THE SALE. AND I WANT TO AT THIS POINT, I WANT TO BRING US BACK ON A POINT THAT IS, YOU KNOW, DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE BUDGET. THE ONE THING THIS IS ABOUT AN $8,050 TRAILER THAT'S BEING BUILT. LET'S KEEP THE DISCUSSION TO THAT. COUNCILMAN, YOU'RE NEXT TO MY QUEUE. YOU HAVE THE FLOOR, SIR. PUT ME DOWN FOR FIVE HUNDO FOR THIS TRAILER, PLEASE. THANK YOU. JENNY, YOUR NEXT $500. 24.

THE DEVELOPER OF THIS PROPERTY HAS REDUCED THE NUMBER OF SIZE OF UNITS VERSUS PROPOSALS OFFERED EARLIER ON THIS SITE, AND HAS AGREED TO ADD LIGHTING AND SOME SECURITY FUNCTIONS AT OUR REQUEST THROUGH BINDING ELEMENTS. THE DEVELOPER WORKING WITH THE JEFFERSON COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE HAS ALSO AGREED TO MAKE FUNDING AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR STOP SIGNS OR A PORTION OF A TRAFFIC LIGHT LIGHT IF IN IF WE CAN GET THE STATE APPROVAL. EACH OF THESE CHANGES IMPROVED THE PROPOSAL. THE PROPERTY WAS AND IS LOCATED IN DISTRICT 14, IS CLOSE TO DISTRICTS 13 AND 25. UNDERSTANDING THE OPPOSITION TO THIS, DURING THE HEARING PROCESS, THE THREE OF US MET WITH THE JEFFERSON COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AS SOON AS THE PUBLIC RECORD HAD BEEN FINALIZED AND SUBMITTED TO COUNCIL. OUR GOAL WAS TO REVIEW THE COMMENTS IN OPPOSITION TO SEEK WHERE WE COULD FIND IMPROVEMENTS TO THE PROJECT OR THE GROUNDS OF DENIAL. IN THE END, I COULD NOT GET ENOUGH CHANGED IN THIS DEVELOPMENT THROUGH BINDING ELEMENTS TO BE ABLE TO BE A YES VOTE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS PROJECT LACKS INFRASTRUCTURE AND QUALITY OF LIFE, AMENITIES THAT ARE NEEDED TO BE A GOOD FIT FOR THE DISTRICT. I ALSO BELIEVE THAT UNTIL WE CAN GET STATE TRANSPORTATION CABINET TO MOVE ON, THE INSTALLATION OF A LIGHT AT DIXIE AND BLEVINS GAP, DEVELOPMENTS LIKE THIS WILL PUT MORE LIVES IN DANGER. THIS IS AN ISSUE MUCH LARGER THAN ANY ONE CASE, BUT RATHER POINTS TO THE PROBLEM THAT WE TYPICALLY FACE. STATE MANUALS AND PROCESS WILL ONLY LET THE NEEDED INFRASTRUCTURE TO BE ADDED UNTIL AFTER IT IS LONG OVERDUE, AND THAT NEEDS TO CHANGE. IT IS FOR THESE REASONS, AND FOR MANY PEOPLE WHO SPOKE IN OPPOSITION, THAT I WILL BE A NO VOTE ON THIS CASE. THANK YOU. COUNCILWOMAN BATSHON. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THE MOTION TO ADD SOME BINDING ELEMENTS THAT TRAVIS FISHER HAS BEEN WORKING ON. HELLO, EVERYBODY. TRAVIS, ASSISTANT COUNTY ATTORNEY. SO THERE ARE A SLATE OF BINDING ELEMENTS CAME OVER FROM THE COMMITTEE. THERE IS ONE ADDITION TO AN EXISTING ONE AND ONE NEW ONE THAT IS PROPOSED. SO BINDING ELEMENT 16 WAS ADDED TO THAT COMMITTEE. IT CURRENTLY READS APPLICANT, DEVELOPER, OWNER SHALL INSTALL AND MAINTAIN A SECURITY SYSTEM ON SITE. WE WOULD ADD A SECOND SENTENCE TO THAT WHICH SHOULD READ. THE SECURITY SYSTEM SHALL INCLUDE AT LEAST 56 CAMERAS. THAT'S THE NUMBER THE DEVELOPER CAME UP WITH. IT ROUGHLY COVERS SORT OF THE FOUR CORNERS OF EACH BUILDING, BUT WE DON'T WANT TO LIMIT EXACT LOCATION. SO THAT'S THAT PIECE. AND THEN SKIPPING DOWN THERE WOULD BE A NEW NUMBER, 22 BUMPING THE EXISTING 22 TO 23. I TRY TO KEEP THE STANDARD BINDING ELEMENT AS THE LAST BINDING ELEMENT, SO IT GETS CAUGHT ON EVERY CASE. THE NEW 22 WOULD READ AS FOLLOWS. AFTER THE INSTALLATION OF THE STREETLIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION OF BLEVINS GAP AND EAST ORAL, AS REQUIRED BY THESE BDING ELEMENTS, APPLICANT DELOR OWNER SHALL NOT OPPO THE INSTALLATN OF A FLOCK CAMERA FACING EITHER ROAD OR INTERSECTION OF THE TWO BY LMPD. IF LMPD CHOOSES TO INSTALL SUCH CAMERA WITHIN TEN YEARS OF THE APPROVAL OF THE REZONING OF THE SITE, APPLICANT DEVELOPER OWNER SHALL PAY FOR UP TO $6,500 TOWARD THE OPERATING COST OF SUCH CAMERA FOR ONE YEAR. APPLICANT DEVELOPER OWNER SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INSTALLATION OR REMOVAL OF SUCH CAMERA. SO THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DISCUSSION ON THE SPEEDING UP AND DOWN. BLEVINS. THIS IS NOT A SITUATION WHERE THERE'S A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC BACK UP. IT'S A, YOU KNOW, A SAFETY CONCERN, NARROWNESS OF THE ROAD AND THAT SORT OF THING. AND THE HOPE IS THAT THE FLOCK CAMERA WILL CAPTURE SORT OF ACCURATE REPRESENTATIONS OF OF WHAT ALL IS GOING ON THERE, HOW FAST THINGS ARE GOING, IF THERE ARE ANY, YOU KNOW, CRIMES IN PROGRESS THAT WILL CATCH WHAT'S GOING ON DOWN THE STREET AND WE'LL GET A A REALLY ADVANCED LOOK AT WHAT ALL IS HAPPENING THERE. SO IT'S SORT OF A NEW BINDING ELEMENT YOU ALL HAVE HEARD BEFORE, BUT THAT'S ALL THE DEVELOPER HAS AGREED TO.

AND IF WE HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM. SECOND, THANK YOU. THE

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS PROPERLY BEFORE US, COUNCILMAN HAWKINS, YOUR NEXT TO MY QUEUE. NO, COUNCILMAN. READ YOUR NEXT WITHDRAW QUESTION. I'VE GOT NO ONE IN MY QUEUE. ANY DISCUSSION ON THIS PROPOSED AMENDMENT, COUNCILMAN SIMON, J.J. YOU'RE NEXT. I HAVE A QUESTION. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. ONE YEAR TO PAY FOR THE FLOCK CAMERAS. WHO PAYS FOR THEM AFTERWARDS? SO THAT'S REALLY UP TO THEM. IF THEY WANT TO KEEP ONE THERE FOREVER, THEY'RE GOING TO NEED TO KEEP THEM SPENDING ON THEM. I MEAN, IF IF A COUNCIL OFFICER, MULTIPLE COUNCIL OFFICES WANT TO KEEP IT THERE, THEY COULD CONTRIBUTE. BUT YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT GONNA KEEP THE DEVELOPER ON THE HOOK FOREVER FOR A COST THAT MIGHT INCREASE AS TIME GOES ON DEPENDING ON, YOU KNOW, THE THE. THE ADVANCEMENT OF THE TECHNOLOGY. SO IT'S JUST HARD TO QUANTIFY. BUT THEY AGREED TO PAY FOR A YEAR AND WE'LL GET AT LEAST A SNAPSHOT OF A FULL YEAR OUT OF THAT. AND AGAIN, IF IF WE WANT TO EXTEND IT ON LMPD OR COUNCIL'S BASIS, IT COULD BE EXTENDED. THANK YOU SIR. YOU'RE WELCOME. YEAH. MY QUESTION MY QUESTION WAS SO I WAS PARTIALLY TO THAT. BUT ALSO HOW MANY DID YOU SAY. HOW MANY CAMERAS DID YOU SAY WOULD BE. SO IT'S JUST THE ONE FLOCK CAMERA. BUT THEY HAVE THEY HAVE AN ON SITE SECURITY SYSTEM THAT'S BEING PROPOSED OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS? ALL RIGHT. WE'VE GOT A PROPOSED AMEND BEFORE US. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. ANY OPPOSITION IN OPPOSITION WE NOW HAVE. WHAT'S THAT? NO, WE GOT ONE. NO.

OKAY. IT CARRIES WE NOW HAVE THE AMENDED VERSION BEFORE US. THIS IS REQUIRES A ROLL CALL.

VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, MADAM CLERK, OPEN THE ROLL, PLEASE, MR. PRESIDENT. WHAT'S THAT? I WANTED TO DEBATE ON THE MAIN MOTION. OKAY. I JUST WANTED TO SAY, AS IT STANDS BEFORE US AMENDMENT AMENDED, I WOULD NORMALLY HAVE BEEN FOR THIS, BUT THE INCLUSION OF FLOCK CAMERAS. I'M. I'M NOT VOTING FOR FLOCK CAMERAS. IT'S A SERIOUS CONCERN NATIONWIDE ABOUT THE USE OF THE DATA. I'VE BEEN ON THE RECORD ABOUT THIS BEFORE, SO I WILL BE A NO ON THIS MOTION. I'VE GOT NO ONE ELSE IN MY QUEUE. MADAM CLERK, OPEN THE ROLL. COUNCILWOMAN.

ORDINANCE IS ADOPTED, MADAM CLERK, A READING OF ITEM NUMBER 47, AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO THE ZONING AND FORM DISTRICT OF PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 1622316301 AND 16305 SHELBYVILLE ROAD AND 211 JOHNSON ROAD, CONTAINING APPROXIMATELY 11.4 ACRES AND BEING A LOUISVILLE METRO CASE NUMBER 24 00114. AMENDMENT BY SUBSTITUTION, READ IN FULL MOTION ITEMS PROPERLY BEFORE US. COUNCILMAN READ THIS CAME OUT OF PLANNING. ZONING. YOU HAVE THE FLOOR? YES. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. AND THIS IS AN ORDINANCE THAT DENIED THE ZONING FROM R4 AND C2 TO C1 AT 1622316301 AND 160305 SHELBYVILLE ROAD AND 211 JOHNSON ROAD CONTAINING 11 ACRES. THIS IS IN COUNCILMAN PIAGENTINI DISTRICT 19, AND IT'S ON LAND WHICH HARKENS BACK TO THE INFANCY OF EASTWOOD, LYING NEXT TO A RAILROAD TUNNEL WHICH TAKES YOU TO EITHER NORTHWEST TO ANCHORAGE OR EAST TO FRANKFORT, A CRESCENT SHAPED PARCEL WITH A SINGLE FAMILY HOME ALONG THE NORTH SIDE OF SHELBYVILLE AND JOHNSON ROADS WOULD BE DEVELOPED INTO COMMERCIAL PROPERTY. AND I KNOW THAT HE HAS LOTS OF THINGS TO TALK ABOUT, SO I'M GOING TO HAND IT OVER TO HIM. YOU HAVE THE FLOOR, SIR. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. SO BEAR WITH ME, BECAUSE THIS WAS RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL. THEN AMENDMENT BY SUBSTITUTION OVERTURN. NOW WE'RE GOING TO OVERTURN THE AMENDMENT BY SUBSTITUTION TO PUT IT BACK IN. BECAUSE OF DISCUSSIONS THAT WE'VE HAD WITH THE DEVELOPER AND CONCESSIONS THAT WE'VE GOTTEN, WHICH ULTIMATELY ACHIEVE THE GOAL. SO, AGAIN, COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF JOHNSON ROAD AND SHELBYVILLE ROAD, IT'S DIRECTLY IMPACTED BY THIS DEVELOPMENT. FOR THOSE THAT DON'T KNOW, IF YOU LOOK AT THE RECORD, YOU CAN SEE IT PLAIN AS DAY. THE DEVELOPER'S OWN TRAFFIC STUDY INDICATED THAT THE INTERSECTION IS CURRENTLY FAILING, AND BY FAILING I DO NOT MEAN LIKE A D OR D OR A C, IT IS A HARD F, AND THEN EVEN AFTER THE QUOTE IMPROVEMENTS THAT THE DEVELOPER ORIGINALLY PROPOSED, NOT ONLY WAS IT AN F, BUT THERE WAS. THEY ALMOST RAN OUT OF THE ABILITY TO QUANTIFY HOW BAD THE FAILURE WAS, AND SO THAT THERE WAS SOME DISCUSSION AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION. SO I'M BACKING UP TO THE ORIGINAL PLANNING COMMISSION DISCUSSION BETWEEN THE DEVELOPER AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION THAT KYTC WAS VERBALLY SAYING THAT THIS MAY QUALIFY FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT

[01:40:05]

WITH NO HARD COMMITMENTS. SO YOU MAY KNOW THAT I'VE HELD THIS AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S AT THE PLANNING AND ZONING FOR A MONTH AT THE PLANNING. THE REASON I DID THAT IS BECAUSE I MET WITH OR THROUGH TRAVIS FEASTER. WE WERE TALKING WITH THE DEVELOPERS ABOUT WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE, AND THE NUMBER ONE THING THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE WAS A TRAFFIC LIGHT NEEDED TO BE PRIORITIZED BEFORE ANY CONSTRUCTION BEGAN AT THAT INTERSECTION. THAT'S THE CRITICAL ISSUE. THERE WAS AN EXISTING BINDING ELEMENT THAT TALKED ABOUT BUILDING THEY COULD BUILD AND CONSTRUCT THERE. SO YOU'D HAVE ALL THE CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT COMING THROUGH THAT AREA. BUT THAT BUT THE LIGHT WOULD NOT BE INSTALLED UNTIL AFTER ALL THAT WAS DONE. AND THEN THEY COULDN'T OCCUPY THE BUILDINGS UNTIL AFTER THE LIGHT WAS INSTALLED. AND AT THAT POINT, YOU'VE ALREADY CREATED THE MESS. AND TO TO ACTUALLY TO BE TALK ABOUT WHAT COUNCILWOMAN BASS SAID A MOMENT AGO, IT'S REALLY A SHAME THAT YOU HAD TO GET TO A FAILURE RATE THAT IS LIKE LITERALLY OFF THE CHARTS TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE THE STATE IS EVEN CONSIDERING PUTTING A LIGHT THERE. IT'S ABSURD. THE STANDARD THAT'S BEEN PUT IN PLACE AND ON THESE STATE ROADS PARTICULARLY, WE NEED TO BE ALL WORKING TOGETHER TO IMPROVE HOW WE BUILD THIS INFRASTRUCTURE. AND WHEN WE BUILD THIS INFRASTRUCTURE. WELL, THE GOOD NEWS IS, SO AS OF THE LAST PLANNING COMMISSION, AS OF THE LAST PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING, THE DEVELOPER HAD NOT AGREED TO THAT. THE LIGHT BE BUILT FIRST BEFORE THEY STARTED CONSTRUCTION. SO WE HAD THE OVERTURN THAT'S CURRENTLY IN FRONT OF YOU. WELL, AS OF YESTERDAY, THE DEVELOPER CAME BACK AND SAID THAT THEY WILL AGREE TO A BINDING ELEMENT THAT HAS THE LIGHT BUILT BEFORE THEY BUILD ANYTHING AT THAT AREA, WHICH IS PRECISELY WHAT WE WANTED IN THE FIRST PLACE AND WILL IMPROVE THAT INTERSECTION DRAMATICALLY, INCREASE THE SAFETY, THE ROAD SAFETY AROUND THAT AREA AND ALLOW THEM TO BE SUCCESSFUL AS A DEVELOPMENT IN THAT SECTION OF TOWN. SO WE'RE VERY THANKFUL THAT THAT FINALLY GOT PLAYED OUT. I DO WANT TO MAKE A FEW MORE COMMENTS BEFORE I READ THE THE NEW BINDING ELEMENTS INTO THE RECORD. THE PROCESS THAT THIS HAS TO FOLLOW IS IMPORTANT FOR A LOT OF REASONS, AND THAT INCLUDES COMMUNICATING THROUGH THE PROPER CHANNELS, IN OUR CASE, THE COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. I WANT TO THANK TRAVIS FEASTER FOR ALL HIS WORK. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT ALL OF THAT HAPPENS. I WAS A LITTLE UPSET THAT IT TOOK UNTIL LITERALLY YESTERDAY AFTERNOON TO FINALLY GET THIS AGREEMENT. AND THERE'S A PART OF ME THAT WAS, YOU KNOW, UPSET ABOUT IT OR, YOU KNOW, DO I STILL MOVE FORWARD WITH WHAT I'M DOING? OR DO I ACCEPT THE WIN? OF COURSE WE SHOULD ACCEPT THE WIN, RIGHT? THIS IS THE RIGHT MOVE. WE APPRECIATE THE DEVELOPER SEEING THAT THIS IS THE RIGHT WAY FORWARD. AND WE WANT TO THANK THEM FOR FOR ACCEPTING THAT CONDITION SO THAT WE CAN GET THIS DONE, BUT DO IT IN A SAFE MANNER THAT. IS EVERYTHING. OKAY. OKAY. BUT DO IT IN A SAFE MANNER THAT THAT'S GOING TO BENEFIT THEM, THAT'S GOING TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY.

SO WITH THAT SAID, I'M GOING TO MAKE A MOTION HERE. SO FOLLOW FOLLOW MY LEAD HERE. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN? I'M GOING TO MAKE A MOTION FOR THE AMENDMENT BY SUBSTITUTION. THAT WILL BRING THIS BACK TO ACCEPTING THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION WITH TWO ADDED BINDING ELEMENTS, AND I'LL READ THEM ON THE RECORD RIGHT NOW. THE FIRST AD IS UNDER BINDING ELEMENT THREE SUB G. WE ADDED THE LANGUAGE. WELL. THE CURRENT LANGUAGE READS KYTC SHALL HAVE ISSUED WRITTEN APPROVAL FOR A TRAFFIC SIGNAL. EXCUSE ME, AT SHELBYVILLE AND JOHNSON ROAD, THE ADDED LANGUAGE IS AS FOLLOWS AND THE INSTALLATION OF THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL SHALL BE COMPLETE. PERIOD. SUCH INSTALLATION SHALL BE DONE AT THE SOLE COST AND EXPENSE OF THE APPLICANT DEVELOPMENT PROPERTY OWNER. PERIOD. AGAIN, COMPLIMENT THE DEVELOPER. THEY AGREED TO PAY FOR IT. THANK YOU. THANK THEM VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE THAT. AND THEN THE LAST ONE, THE 11TH BINDING ELEMENT THAT'S BEING ADDED, WHICH IS THE SORT OF STANDARD BINDING ELEMENT WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST. SO I'LL READ IT. SO IT'S ON THE RECORD. BUT THIS IS THE ONE THAT ESSENTIALLY SAYS ANY CHANGES. THIS MUST COME BACK TO THE COUNCIL FOR FINAL REVIEW. SO IT READS QUOTE NUMBER 11. ANY SIGNIFICANT INCREASES TO THE PROPOSED STRUCTURES E.G. INCREASES IN BUILDING HEIGHT, NUMBER OF UNITS, NUMBER OF BUILDINGS, ANY INCREASE IN DENSITY ON THE PROPERTY, ANY CHANGES IN USE ON THE PROPERTY WHICH DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING BEFORE THE PLANNING COMMISSION OR SUBCOMMITTEE THEREOF, AND OR ANY AMENDMENTS TO THE BINDING ELEMENTS OTHER THAN ONE. THE ADDITION OF NEW BINDING ELEMENTS TO CHANGES TO BINDING ELEMENTS THAT MERELY UPDATE THE PUBLIC HEARING DATE,

[01:45:03]

OR THREE UPDATING A PREVIOUS VERSION OF THIS BINDING ELEMENT TO REFLECT THE CURRENT LANGUAGE SHALL BE REVIEWED BEFORE THE PLANNING COMMISSION, WITH FINAL ACTION TO BE DETERMINED BY METRO COUNCIL. IF I COULD GET A SECOND, SECOND. THANK YOU. SO WHAT? SO JUST TO BE CLEAR, A YES VOTE ON THIS WILL READOPT THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE DEVELOPMENT, WITH THESE NEW BINDING ELEMENTS THAT WERE AGREED TO, WHICH WE APPRECIATE AND WILL SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE SAFETY AT THAT INTERSECTION FOR THE COMMUNITY. AND THEN WE WILL, OF COURSE, HAVE TO VOTE ONE MORE TIME AGAIN TO FULLY APPROVE THE DEVELOPMENT. I'M GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, MR. PRESIDENT. THANK YOU, COUNCILOR WINKLER. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. I REALLY JUST WANTED TO COMPLIMENT MY COLLEAGUE ON REACHING BACK OUT TO THE DEVELOPER AND FINDING A SOLUTION. I MEAN, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASY TO SAY, YOU KNOW, HEY, THE SHIP SAILED. I TRIED TOUGH LUCK, YOU KNOW? SORRY. YOU WANT TO DO THIS NOW? AND I JUST APPRECIATE THE WILLINGNESS TO WORK WITH THEM, FIND A SOLUTION, YOU KNOW, AND WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THAT. I'VE GOT NO ONE ELSE IN MY QUEUE AND NO ONE ELSE FLAGGING ME. COUNCILMAN REED. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. MR. PRESIDENT AND I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE IN THE RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION OF SOME IN THE SOUTH END THAT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET STOPLIGHTS WHEN NEEDED, AND I THINK THAT WE AS A BODY NEED TO BE VERY VOCAL WITH KYTC AND OPEN THEIR MINDS TO THINKING THINGS A LITTLE BIT MORE CURRENT, LET'S PUT IT THAT WAY. AND WE'VE ALL EXPERIENCED IT, RIGHT? YOU KNOW, I'VE EXPERIENCED IT ON 42.

COUNCILMAN BASS HAS EXPERIENCED IT ON ON DIXIE HIGHWAY. SO I JUST WANT HER TO KNOW AND OTHERS TO KNOW THAT I'M VERY SYMPATHETIC TO TO THEIR PLIGHT AND WHATEVER I CAN DO TO GET IN THEIR EAR CONTINUALLY. I'M GOING TO DO IT. THANK YOU FOLKS. I'VE GOT NO ONE ELSE IN MY QUEUE. ANYTHING? NOPE. OKAY, PERFECT. NOT IN MINE. DO YOU EVER IN YOUR QUEUE? GO AHEAD.

YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. ALL RIGHT. WE THANK YOU FOR ALL WORKING DILIGENTLY ON THAT. AND LEADING TO A YES WITH THE DEVELOPER. THANK YOU. AND THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE? BECAUSE I'VE GOT NO ONE IN MY QUEUE. ALL RIGHT. SO, MR. PRESIDENT, I APOLOGIZE. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT TRAVIS TAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR. THANK YOU. THE THIS IS ON THE AMENDMENT AND AMENDMENT BY SUBSTITUTION. IT'S THE SAME VERBIAGE AS WAS IN THE ORIGINAL UPLOAD FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION, PLUS THE ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE. COUNCILMAN PIAGENTINI READ INTO THE RECORD. SO IT IS AN APPROVAL PLUS SOME ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE, INCLUDING ALL THE ORIGINAL ELEMENTS FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION, UNLESS THERE WAS ANY CONFUSION. ALL RIGHT. SO FOLKS, WE'VE GOT OF COURSE, HERE IS AMENDMENT BY SUBSTITUTION ADDING IN TWO MORE BINDING ELEMENTS. OKAY. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE IN OPPOSITION. YOU'RE IN OPPOSITION. WE NOW HAVE THE AMENDED VERSION WITH THE TWO BINDING ELEMENTS BEFORE US. I'VE GOT NO ONE IN MY QUEUE FOR DISCUSSION ON THIS. THIS REQUIRES A ROLL CALL. VOTE, MADAM CLERK, OPEN THE ROLL. MR. PRESIDENT, YOU HAVE 22 YES VOTES AND TWO PRESENT VOTES. THE ORDINANCE IS ADOPTED. MADAM CLERK, READING ITEM NUMBER 48. AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTIONS 100.01, 100.02, 100.11 AND

SO ALTHOUGH I THINK WE'VE EXPLAINED THIS WITH SOME DILIGENCE BEFORE NOW THESE WE'RE ESSENTIALLY AMENDING TWO THINGS, RIGHT? ONE IS THE PERMITTING PROCESS RELATED TO PARKS AND BEING ABLE TO HAVE AN ASSEMBLY IN A PUBLIC PARK. THE OTHER IS AN AMENDMENT TO THE PERMITTING PROCESS. IN OTHER WORDS, ANYTIME YOU WANT TO CLOSE DOWN STREETS AND BE ABLE TO MARCH DOWN THAT STREET FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER.
