City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes April 28, 2021 Administrator Statz explained that the City would put forward a 60-day extension even if the full 60 days is not necessary in order to give extra time to make revisions to the plans or explore them further. A roll-call vote was taken. Mayor Love and Council Members King, Koski, Lakso & Mosher voted in favor. Motion carried. 4. NorBella Senior Living a. Rezoning (B-2 Main Street Commercial to B-1 Commercial) b. Conditional Use Permit (Specialized Care Facility) c. Site Plan Review Mr. Carlson stated that this request is for a project called NorBella Senior Living which is an assisted living/memory care facility. He stated that they are requesting a rezoning, CUP, and Site Plan review. This project would be for Lot 1, Block 2 on the north side of Street A that runs through the project. He reviewed the CityÓs land use plan, the current zoning, and the proposed zoning. The 24-acre Rehbein Commercial parcel, because it was one parcel that was zoned B-2 when the Main Street zoning came through, however, there is only some of the property that fronts on Main Street. He stated that it would be appropriate to have some of the property that is further away from Main Street be zoned B-1 and explained that there is no need to amend the Land Use/Comprehensive Plan if this change is approved. He explained that a Specialized Care Facility is considered a Conditional Use within the B-1 zoning. He stated that there are conditions attached and noted that one of the key issues will be having the appropriate licenses from the State and County, as well as knowing that there is adequate staff to handle emergencies. He stated that there is also concern that there may be excessive use of 911 calls and the City needs to consider if they have recourse if that occurs. The Site Plan review focuses on the design and standards on the site itself and gave a brief overview of the details for the single-story building with parking in front with 35 stalls. He reviewed the handful of issues that were brought up with relation to the sidewalk serving the site and the recommendation that there is a loop sidewalk that would allow residents to take a walking loop around the facility. He stated that they are suggesting that a portion of the st sidewalk be removed in favor of having a sidewalk out to 21 Avenue so people can cross at the intersection. He stated that, in his opinion, 35 parking spaces for this building is more than adequate. He reviewed the planned building materials, lighting, the trash enclosure and screening, landscape plans. The recommendation is for approval of the rezoning and the CUP with conditions as outlined by the City Attorney in the packet and briefly reviewed the conditions. Administrator Statz gave a brief overview of the analysis of the tax situation that was put together by the City assessor. His valuation ended up at $3.5 million, the tax class rate would be 1.25%, which produced an estimated tax of $61,000 and the City portion of that amount would be $22,338. He stated that the City had also asked the assessor to evaluate the lot for something like a generic commercial building or retail outlet. That valuation would be $2.36 million, the tax class rate would be 1.5% for the first $150,000 and then 2% above that amount, which would mean the estimated taxes are higher at $80,000, but the CityÓs portion would only be $23,000, which is very close to the City portion for the senior facility that is presented. He suggested that the developer be given the opportunity to tell the Council a bit about the project. Page 15 of 26
