City of Centerville <br />EDA Meeting Minutes <br />October 23, 2019 <br /> <br />VII. OLD BUSINESS <br /> <br />1. None <br /> <br />VIII. NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br />1. Building Façade Grant Application – Southern Rail Garage <br /> <br />Administrator Statz presented the grant application received from JV Summit Corp, dba Southern <br />Rail to assist with the construction of a garage on the site of the Southern Rail bar. The applicants <br />were on hand to show a drawing of the proposed building. Its design included split face block, <br />hardi-board lap siding in the gables, and architectural shingles. The garage would replace the <br />existing garage on site and would be built in the same footprint. Because the garage would not <br />expand the footprint, there would not be any expansion of a legal non-conformity. Therefore, there <br />would be no requirement for the correction of other existing legal non-conformities such as an <br />unpaved parking lot or other issues with the building itself. The new garage would need to meet <br />current building codes. It would also be subject to the guidelines outlined in the Downtown <br />Redevelopment Master Plan referenced in the M-1 district in city code. This means that the <br />building would need to have architectural elements that enhance the character of the neighborhood. <br /> <br />Motion by Commission Member Love, seconded by Commission Member Giovinazzo to <br />award a $5,000 Grant from the EDA’s Revolving Loan and Grant Program (RLGP) to JV <br />Summit Corp dba Southern Rail (7082 Centerville Rd) for the construction of a garage, <br />conditioned on architectural approval by city staff and subject to the guidelines of the RLGP <br />and city code, including the Downtown Master Plan and Development Guidelines. All in <br />favor. Motion carried. <br />IX. ADJOURNMENT <br />Motion by Commission Member Hanzal, seconded by Commission Member Giovinazzo to <br />Adjourn the EDA meeting at 5:16 p.m. All in favor. Motion carried. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted by EDA Secretary, Teresa Bender <br />Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br />
