1. Building Façade Grant Application – Southern Rail Garage
Administrator Statz presented the grant application received from JV Summit Corp, dba Southern
Rail to assist with the construction of a garage on the site of the Southern Rail bar. The applicants
were on hand to show a drawing of the proposed building. Its design included split face block,
hardi-board lap siding in the gables, and architectural shingles. The garage would replace the
existing garage on site and would be built in the same footprint. Because the garage would not
expand the footprint, there would not be any expansion of a legal non-conformity. Therefore, there
would be no requirement for the correction of other existing legal non-conformities such as an
unpaved parking lot or other issues with the building itself. The new garage would need to meet
current building codes. It would also be subject to the guidelines outlined in the Downtown
Redevelopment Master Plan referenced in the M-1 district in city code. This means that the
building would need to have architectural elements that enhance the character of the neighborhood.
Motion by Commission Member Love, seconded by Commission Member Giovinazzo to
award a $5,000 Grant from the EDA’s Revolving Loan and Grant Program (RLGP) to JV
Summit Corp dba Southern Rail (7082 Centerville Rd) for the construction of a garage,
conditioned on architectural approval by city staff and subject to the guidelines of the RLGP
and city code, including the Downtown Master Plan and Development Guidelines. All in
favor. Motion carried.
IX. ADJOURNMENT
Motion by Commission Member Hanzal, seconded by Commission Member Giovinazzo to
Adjourn the EDA meeting at 5:16 p.m. All in favor. Motion carried.
Respectfully submitted by EDA Secretary, Teresa Bender
