City of Centerville <br />EDA Meeting Minutes <br />February 19, 2020 <br /> <br /> Executive Director Statz, noted that Northland has reached the EDA authorization limit of <br />$11,000. Therefore, future billings from Northland will be coded to the general fund of the city. <br /> <br />Motion by Commission Member Weatherhead, seconded by Commission Member <br />Giovinazzo to approve the expenditures as presented. All in favor. Motion carried. <br /> <br />VI. REPORTS <br /> <br />1. Administrator’s Report <br /> <br />Executive Director Statz gave a report on general development activities around the city. <br /> <br />VII. OLD BUSINESS <br /> <br />2. 1737 Main Street – Draft Site Layout <br /> <br />Executive Director Statz presented the draft site layout and renderings submitted by the city’s <br />consultant Site Design and Realtor Mike Brass. Mr. Brass has not yet completed his financial <br />analysis of the site, and did not attend the meeting. Mr. Statz felt, however, that a general review <br />of the site would be valuable. Mr. Statz also reviewed parking requirements for various <br />scenarios of building occupancy. Even in the less demanding scenario of office space for the <br />first floor, parking needs are not met by the site layout. With a retail or restaurant component on <br />the first floor, the parking situation is worse. Mr. Statz reminded the board that any development <br />in the M1 or M2 districts is done through a Planned Unit Development (PUD) process, which <br />allows for flexibility of zoning regulations, including parking requirements. <br /> <br />The board directed Mr. Statz to engage in conversations with adjacent property owners about <br />shared parking arrangements or other land acquisition that could help facilitate more parking. <br /> <br />No formal action was taken. <br /> <br />VIII. NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br />3. Rebranding Letter of Support <br /> <br />Mr. Statz reviewed, with the board, a draft letter of support for the rebranding effort. The letter <br />outlines the EDA’s intended roll in the implementation of effort. <br /> <br />Motion by Commission Member Weatherhead, seconded by Commission Member <br />Giovinazzo to approve the support letter. All in favor. Motion carried. <br /> <br /> <br />4. Main Street Revitalization <br /> <br />Page 2 of 3 <br /> <br /> <br />
