Concept Review – Old Mill Estates 3 Addition stnd Staff introduced this item, noting that the concept plan for Old Mill Estates 1 and 2 edition were reviewed at the Planning Commission meeting in March 2024. No formal action was taken at that meeting, but there was consensus of the Commission to support the plan. The developer was hoping to complete the project in the summer 2024, however, wetland permitting issues took longer than expected – those issues have been resolved. Page 1 of 3 City of Centerville Planning and Zoning Commission February 4, 2025 rd The Old Mill Estates 3 edition includes three lots plus the old lot 8 for four lots total. The third edition is a replating of Lot 1 into 4 separate lots. Three of the lots would share one access to the street with a professionally drawn joint maintenance agreement with the sewer and water lines in that access. The shared access would be asphalt paved, 16 feet wide. Each lot would receive one park fee upon sale by us. The developer addressed the Commission to answer questions. VI. OLD BUSINESS 1. Table of Allowed Uses Assistant Administrator Lewis introduced this item as presented in the packet. Discussion ensued about the revised definition of light manufacturing, to include “fabrication, and assembly” in the definition. The word “light” was added before “manufacturing” on the Table of Allowed Uses. Discussion ensued about the recommended definition for automotive detailing; the Commission discussed the “installation of accessories” and if the intent is to allow pinstriping and bug shield lights. The term restoration was also discussed to clarify activities such as repairing hail damage (light refinishing done with a hammer) versus heavy body work. The Commission noted that there is some overlap of categories on the Table of Allowed Uses (notably in retail sales and services) and Assistant Administrator Lewis noted that in time the Table will be updated to clean up some of the overlap. The Commission requested further clarification on the definition for automotive detailing and agreed the proposed revision could be taken to council for approval. Motion by Commissioner Olson, seconded by Commissioner Carciofini to recommend approval of the proposed changes to the Table of Allowed Uses, with revisions further clarifying the definition for automotive detailing. All in favor. Motion carried. 2. Downtown Master Plan Changes Assistant Administrator Lewis introduced this item as presented in the packet, noting that the only change to the document, since the last Commission meeting, is adding an addendum outlining examples of French-Canadian architecture. Administrator Statz reviewed his memo explaining why a Comprehensive Land Use Amendment is not needed to bring the density in the M-2 from 12-45 units/acre to 12-30 units/acre. Administrator Statz noted that as long as all the zoning districts are within the 12-45 unit/acre range, there is no need for a change; he added that if the Commission wanted to lower one of the district’s bottom thresholds, that would require a Comprehensive Land Use Amendment, because it would be out of range. Discussion ensued about a few text amendments in the Downtown Mater Plan to include the following:  Downtown Neighborhood (M-2) page 20 – remove the “low-density and mid-rise housing”  Off-Street Parking – Retail/Office page 23 – change “anticipated” to “required”  Building Height page 28 – add “35 feet” to the 2-story building Discussion also ensued about the need to amend the city code to update the M-2 density from 12- 45 units/acre to 12-30 units/acre. Motion by Commissioner Seppala, seconded by Commissioner Carciofini to make a recommend the adoption of the revised Downtown Master Plan and Development Guidelines with the text amendments, findings of the Planning Commission and a separate action to lower the density in the City Code from 12-45 to 12-30 to be consistent with the Downtown Master Plan. All in favor. Motion carried. Page 2 of 3 City of Centerville Planning and Zoning Commission February 4, 2025 VII. NEW BUSINESS 1. None VIII. APPROVAL OF MIN UTES 1.
