Mr. Mike Price noted th= ey do show detention ponds in their plans and they will have to do storm
drainage as part of this development. He noted that even with
lane road senior citizens do not drive as much as younger residents would drive, it= would
be more of a more traditional type development and w= ith respect to the density they will have
landscaping and have set the buildings far enough off the sight to take into account the
additional density the= y have asked for.
Mr. John Reid noted that senior citizens= do get visited by other people and down the road is an
assisted living facility that has limited parking. He also noted that senior citizens 50 years old
drive as much as a 30 year old.
Mr. William Sisk,
resident of
movement of land (with the recent installation of sewers) there is already an increase in water on
his property and an increase in traffic. He also noted he has seen developers build apartments like
the apartments planned for this area and when they cannot fill them up they are changed to low
income apartments.
Mr. Larry Van Fossen, resident of

to the facilities.
Chief Building Official, Ma= rk Lindsay noted he has spoken with the county and they had noted
Mr. McCormick had compl= ied with everything they had required him to do and no longer thought
of the paint booth as = a problem. He also told Mr. McCormick that if the property did get
annexed into the City o= f Fort Oglethorpe he would have to install a paint booth as well as
obtain a business license.
Councilman Charles Sharrock= noted that the county has 100 foot setbacks between commercial
and residential and he was wondering if the city had any setbacks su= ch as theirs. He also asked if
the business was annexed but not rezoned could he still operate this business and be legal.
Chief Building Official, Ma= rk Lindsay noted he thought the city had 35 foot setback on the front
of the property and 25 foot setbacks on the sides and rear of the property. He also noted that he
informed Mr. McCormick =
that
should he be annexed into
already existing building because it would encroach on the setbacks. He also noted he could also
operate his business even if it is just annexed but not rezoned under “legal non conforming use”
however if the building is ever vacated the property would have to be rezoned to operate a
business. He also
noted Mr. McCormick has said he
would not start work before
would rarely work passed 6:00 PM.&n= bsp;
It was also noted that whatever restrictions were adopted in lieu of annexation and rezoning or= just
annexation would apply from now on&=

restrictions would apply to any new owner. It was also noted that= the paint booth would have to
meet all EPA standards = and fire safety guidelines.

Mike Price, representative for Harshad Patel, noted that the intent was to construct a senior

City Attorney Robert Stultz noted that if the council has reservations about the developer
building something other than what’s proposed at the meeting tonight then he recommends a
waiting period to find out something a little more concrete and a little more definite and to give
him more time to research and make sure the council isn’t violating some federal law. <= /p>

Chief Building Official, Mark Lindsay came forward and noted that a PM zoning = is a Planned
Unit Development and t= he plan needs to be presented to the council with every “T” crossed= and
every “I” dotted and then they need to vote either up or down for that zoning. I= n the event there is
a change in any way it comes back to the council. He is recommending the council table this
request until a detail drawing is done and presented to the council knowing this is not a “maybe”<= /p>
but a definite plan of what they want to do, then give the council a chance to review it and a vote to
vote it up or down and
then if it is approved and goes into the Chief
Building Official’s
Plan Room there can be no deviations to it unless it goes back before the council. He noted by
approving it now as a PM zoning it would be similar to signing a bla= nk check.
City Manager, Ron Goulart also recommending tabling this request until the council had a more
comprehensive plan detailing everything.
Mayor Ronnie Cobb gave a brief description of what it meant to table a request.
Mike Price, representative for Harshad Patel, asked exactly wh= at the council was needing to
see on the detailed plans. He asked if he could present an alternate proposal for their
consideration. He asked if the request was approved tonight that when the plans are developed,
they are to come back before the council for review to make sure the plan being brought before
them is the same plan they see tonight. The project is also going to be built in phases so the
council will get to review each phase as they are being built.
There was further discussion on what kinds of detailing needed to be put on the plans, city PM
ordinance and etc.
