City of Centerville <br />Planning and Zoning Commission <br />February 4, 2025 <br /> <br />rd <br />The Old Mill Estates 3 edition includes three lots plus the old lot 8 for four lots total. The third <br />edition is a replating of Lot 1 into 4 separate lots. Three of the lots would share one access to the <br />street with a professionally drawn joint maintenance agreement with the sewer and water lines in <br />that access. The shared access would be asphalt paved, 16 feet wide. Each lot would receive one <br />park fee upon sale by us. The developer addressed the Commission to answer questions. <br /> <br />VI. OLD BUSINESS <br />1. Table of Allowed Uses <br />Assistant Administrator Lewis introduced this item as presented in the packet. Discussion ensued <br />about the revised definition of light manufacturing, to include “fabrication, and assembly” in the <br />definition. The word “light” was added before “manufacturing” on the Table of Allowed Uses. <br />Discussion ensued about the recommended definition for automotive detailing; the Commission <br />discussed the “installation of accessories” and if the intent is to allow pinstriping and bug shield <br />lights. The term restoration was also discussed to clarify activities such as repairing hail damage <br />(light refinishing done with a hammer) versus heavy body work. The Commission noted that there <br />is some overlap of categories on the Table of Allowed Uses (notably in retail sales and services) <br />and Assistant Administrator Lewis noted that in time the Table will be updated to clean up some <br />of the overlap. The Commission requested further clarification on the definition for automotive <br />detailing and agreed the proposed revision could be taken to council for approval. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Olson, seconded by Commissioner Carciofini to recommend <br />approval of the proposed changes to the Table of Allowed Uses, with revisions further <br />clarifying the definition for automotive detailing. All in favor. Motion carried. <br /> <br />2. Downtown Master Plan Changes <br />Assistant Administrator Lewis introduced this item as presented in the packet, noting that the only <br />change to the document, since the last Commission meeting, is adding an addendum outlining <br />examples of French-Canadian architecture. <br /> <br />Administrator Statz reviewed his memo explaining why a Comprehensive Land Use Amendment <br />is not needed to bring the density in the M-2 from 12-45 units/acre to 12-30 units/acre. <br />Administrator Statz noted that as long as all the zoning districts are within the 12-45 unit/acre <br />range, there is no need for a change; he added that if the Commission wanted to lower one of the <br />district’s bottom thresholds, that would require a Comprehensive Land Use Amendment, because <br />it would be out of range. Discussion ensued about a few text amendments in the Downtown Mater <br />Plan to include the following: <br /> Downtown Neighborhood (M-2) page 20 – remove the “low-density and mid-rise housing” <br /> Off-Street Parking – Retail/Office page 23 – change “anticipated” to “required” <br /> Building Height page 28 – add “35 feet” to the 2-story building <br /> <br />Discussion also ensued about the need to amend the city code to update the M-2 density from 12- <br />45 units/acre to 12-30 units/acre. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Seppala, seconded by Commissioner Carciofini to make a <br />recommend the adoption of the revised Downtown Master Plan and Development Guidelines <br />with the text amendments, findings of the Planning Commission and a separate action to <br />lower the density in the City Code from 12-45 to 12-30 to be consistent with the Downtown <br />Master Plan. All in favor. Motion carried. <br />Page 2 of 3 <br /> <br />
