Bryan Dyer, Planner, presented the staff report on the land use approvals for the American Eagle Facility.  The action for the City Commission was to consider the Planning Commission’s recommendation amending Horizon 2020 to include approximately ninety-three (93) acres at the corner of Noria Road and North 1400 Road into the City’s Urban Growth Area, adopting Ordinance No. 7204, adopting the amendments to Horizon 2020, adopting Ordinance No. 7205, annexing the approximately eighty-eight (88) acres into the City of Lawrence, and adopting Ordinance No. 7206, rezoning the area.  Dyer said the County Commission approved the amendments to the Urban Growth Area on a two (2) to one (1) vote.

Debi Moore, Economic Development Director, Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said the Wakarusa-Kaw Drainage District, Douglas County and Douglas County Development, Inc., reached an agreement to address drainage problems at the East Hills Business Park.  She requested the City Commission concur with the Planning Commission to increase the Urban Growth Area, adopt the Ordinance annexing and rezoning the property.  There were no other sites in the Urban Growth Area that had fifty (50) acres or more for industrial development.  The Planning Commission unanimously approved expanding the Urban Growth Area to ninety-three (93) acres.

Marci Francisco, 946 Ohio, requested the City Commission require a plat prior to rezoning and annexation.  The proposed plat presented by American Eagle shows two (2) lots.  The first lot would be thirty-eight (38) acres which was currently being site planned for the American Eagle Facility.  The remaining parcel could be sold without any restrictions.  With lot splitting, they could even have up to an additional two (2) lots for industrial use.  Francisco recommended the preliminary plat and final plat be adopted before the rezoning; only include one (1) lot in the rezoning; delay second (2^nd ) reading on the rest of the rezoning until the final plat was filed; and, the Urban Growth Area be reduced to the area of the American Eagle site.

Rundle suggest tabling the rezoning until the final plat was filed.

Larry Kipp, 1029 North 1750 Road, said only thirty-eight (38) acres of the eighty-eight (88) of ninety-eight (98) acres being annexed was for American Eagle.  Kipp expressed a concern that DCDI was operating in the red.  This property needed to be sold in order for them to have operating resources.  He said they have a vested interest in the sale of land. Kipp recommended the City Commission seek an arm length consultant on the availability of industrial land meeting the needs of a firm like American Eagle.  Kipp said he could support the project if it was not being built on prime farmland in Douglas County.

Sara March, 627 Ohio, a Lawrence High Student, representing the Alliance for Social Awareness at Lawrence High School, requested the City Commission not compromise or sacrifice the community and the environment by using prime farmland for this development.  Because of pending fuel crisis, it was important to grow locally, food products.  She recommended not expanding the Urban Growth Area.

Marcia Pomes, 528 Kansas, an employee in the East Hills Business Park, expressed a concern about traffic at the intersection of East Hills Business Park and K-10.  Before additional property be developed, the traffic situation should be resolved.  She recommended reducing the speed limit in the area.

Carey Maynard-Moody, 1645 Barker, requested the City Commission discuss how the Quality of Life for residents in the City of Lawrence could be improved by approving this request.  It was important for the residents to understand how this project would impact the Quality of Life found in the City of Lawrence.

Jerry Sipes, 695 Rhode Island, spoke against expanding the business park for industrial uses into the rich farmland.  He asked the City Commission to deny the project because it was a cheap place to build a warehouse facility.  Sipes concurred with the idea that as fuel cost rise, it would become important to grow more food locally.  He  recommended the City Commission consider as a benefit, the rural character of the area surrounding Lawrence and maintain that area.  This was clearly a Quality of Life issue.

Kurt VanAchen, Douglas County Development Inc., said this property was good farmland.  He would not classify the land as prime farmland.  This entire bottom land area contained about 7,000 acres of farmland.  This request was for approximately 1.24 percent of that total figure.  DCDI was renting the ground for seventy-five dollars ($75.00) per acre per year as cash rent.  No alternatives were presented to them on what to do with this land to maintain the it as farm ground.  No one  offered to purchase the property for farming or even suggested the City, County or another governmental agency buy the ground for agricultural purposes.  The real problem with traffic was when there was no traffic or growth.  Because of a bias towards no growth, the community had made some poor planning decisions.  VanAchen suggested the community should be planning for growth.  Economic Development was a complicated process and the process needed to be flexible.  American Eagle wanted to buy the total eighty-eight (88) acres and had plans for the entire area.  Their commitment and business plan at this time only required the use of thirty-eight (38) acres.  The rest of the area would be decided upon during the next business planning cycle.

Michael Almon, 1311 Prairie, said it was inappropriate to use the current market value of commodities to represent value on the land being considered by American Eagle.  At the present time, agricultural pricing was depressed.  The reason for this depressed cost was the cost of inputs in producing a crop were s high.  East Hills Business Park was an appropriate use for industry because it was not prime farmland and his group could support that use.  Almon suggested finding a more appropriate site for this development  He suggest adding the thirty-eight (38) acres required for American Eagle into the Urban Growth Area and use the remaining fifty (50) acres for agricultural uses.  Those uses could include small garden plots or truck farming.  DCDI did not have a property right to industrial land. They had a property right to the existing use which was agricultural.

Phil Strubble, LandPlan Engineering, said it was his recommendation the area be platted into two (2) lots. The first (1^st) lot would be used for American Eagle’s immediate needs with the second (2^nd ) being held in reserve for future expansion.  Lot 1 would meet all the requirements of the City of Lawrence existing code in terms of development.  The City was best protected by developing the project in two (2) phases.  On lot 2, the detention and other requirements would have to meet the specific use that was identified at that time.  Strubble said the proposed expansion of the Urban Growth Area was a logical expansion.

Dunfield said he reluctantly supported the project initially.  In reviewing the project over the past several weeks, the scale tipped in the other direction.  There were good reasons to support the project with good and convincing reasons not to support the project.  He did not think it was an anti-growth issue, but he was concerned with setting a precedent of nibbling away at good farmland without a policy in place.  He could not support the project as presented and recommended the City Commission expand the Urban Growth Area by only thirty-eight (38) acres and then take time to develop a policy on the use of prime agricultural ground.

Hodges said there was a shortage of industrial and commercial sites in Lawrence.  He recommended the City Commission look at the Urban Growth Areas in general and where this type of zoning could be best used.  It was the City Commission’s responsibility to expand the tax base by placing greater emphasis on industrial and commercial development.  Hodges thought it was important to maintain the sales tax as a resource base by expanding jobs in the community.  There were sufficient checks and balances in the existing zoning and subdivision regulations to prevent abuse of the process.  He recommended expansion of the Urban Growth Area because it was a normal process of growth and supported the annexation and rezoning.

Rundle said it was not inappropriate to say “no” to this project.  When one would consider the overall impact of the project, including public safety and use of prime farmland, it was clear project should not proceed.  Rundle suggested the City Commission take a hard look at identifying appropriate sites for industrial of growth.  The City Commission needed to look at the quality of growth.  Rundle expressed concerns about the process and speed in which the project proceeded.  He encouraged the City Commission not to rush into this decision because it was not thoughtfully considered.  Rundle suggested tabling the Zoning Ordinance until the plat process was followed.

Henry said the City has grown significantly since 1967 and he thought the growth was good for the community.  The City Commission needed to ensure a high quality of life within the community.  Henry said the community needed more industrial land and industry.  He supported expanding the Urban Growth Area, annexation, and rezoning of this parcel because it  would bring jobs into the community.

Kennedy said the major concern with the project in this particular area was drainage.  He was pleased the Wakarusa-Kaw Valley Drainage, DCDI and the County  reached an agreement on the storm water from the East Hills Business Park.  The American Eagle site would have its own  requirements for drainage.  The property would provide important jobs for the community.  He supported the expansion of the Urban Growth Area, the annexation and the zoning because it expanded jobs and addressed the drainage problem.

Rundle expressed a concern about the quality of jobs at the facility.  The City’s policy concerning job development was well defined.  Those issues were not fully discussed by the City Commission and was not part of the total process of review.  He expressed a concern about who would be paying for the drainage improvements.

Moved by Hodges, seconded by Kennedy, to concur with the Planning Commission’s recommendation to amend Horizon 2020 with text and map amendments to include the ninety-three (93) acres at the corner of Noria Road and North 1500 Road into the City’s Urban Growth Area.  Aye:  Henry, Hodges and Kennedy.  Nay:  Dunfield and Rundle.  Motion carried.                                                                                                  (17)

Moved by Hodges, seconded by Kennedy, to adopt Ordinance No. 7204/Douglas County Resolution 00-6, adopting the text and map amendments to Horizon 2020 to include the ninety-three (93) acres at the corner of Noria Road and North 1400 Road into the City’s Urban Growth Area.  Aye:  Henry, Hodges and Kennedy.  Nay:  Dunfield and Rundle.  Motion carried.                                                      (18)

Moved by Rundle to adopt on second  reading Ordinance No. 7205, annexing thirty-eight (38) acres into the City of Lawrence.  Motion died for lack of a second. 

Ordinance No. 7205, annexing approximately eighty-eight (88) acres into the City of Lawrence, property located east of the current East Hills Business Park and bounded by Noria Road on the west and on the South by Douglas County 442 was read a second time. 

Moved by Hodges, seconded by Kennedy, to adopt Ordinance No. 7205, annexing approximately eighty-eight (88) acres into the City of Lawrence, property located east of the current East Hills Business Park and bounded by Noria Road on the west and on the South by Douglas County 442.  Aye:  Henry, Hodges and Kennedy.  Nay:  Dunfield and Rundle.  Motion carried.                                                                (19)

Marci Francisco, 946 Ohio, said the City Commission did not approve plats. The City Commission only accepted the dedication of easements and rights-of-way.  The bargaining chip of the City Commission was to condition the rezoning on platting.  She said it made sense to plat this property prior to rezoning to have the City Commission review the drainage solutions.

Phil Strubble, LandPlan Engineering, said the site plan was for Lot 1 of the proposed plat.  The preliminary plat would include Lot 1 and Lot 2.  The preliminary plat would address the conditions on the existing site.  Lot 1 would have a final plat which would be filed and a site plan identifying the detention and drainage improvements.  Lot 2 of the preliminary plat would not be filed as a final plat until a proposal was presented.  Strubble said that would protect the City to make sure the most current requirements would be met on Lot 2.

Rundle asked if the final plat covering the thirty-eight (38) acres would filed before the rezoning.

Finger said a condition from the Planning Commission was the rezoning be contingent upon final platting.

Ordinance No. 7206, rezoning approximately eight-eight (88) acres, property generally located east of the current East Hills Business Park, bounded by Noria Road on the west and on the south by Douglas County 442 was read a second time.

Moved by Hodges, seconded by Kennedy, to concur with the Planning Commission’s recommendation to adopt the findings of fact and adopt Ordinance No. 7206, rezoning approximately eight-eight (88) acres, property generally located east of the current East Hills Business Park, bounded by Noria Road on the west and on the south by Douglas County 442.  Aye:  Henry, Hodges and Kennedy.  Nay: Dunfield and Rundle.  Motion carried.                                                                                            (20)

Dunfield hoped the City Commission would continue the dialogue on industrial and commercial development into prime agricultural land.

The City Commission concurred to set a study session for May 17, 2000, from 8:30 a.m. until 12:00  noon on the K-10 Corridor Review, reviewing and establishing goals, and budget discussions.

The City Commission concurred to set budget meeting for Wednesday, June 14, 2000, at 9:00 a.m. and Friday, June 30, 2000, at 9:00 a.m.

Debbie Hollsworth, 1900 West 31^st Street, a resident in Gas Light Village, requested the City Commission develop an Ordinance to allow landlords to only evict and terminate tenancy only for cause.  In talking with Federal and State Legislators, it was not possible to adopt something quickly at either the State or Federal level.  They suggested adopting an Ordinance at a local level. 

The City Commission concurred to direct staff to present a report on the eviction and termination of tenancy for cause.

Marci Francisco, 946 Ohio, suggested the City Commission consider going back to a previous rotation for Mayor.  At one point, the persons receiving the highest number of votes in the election would serve as Mayor in the third and fourth year of their terms.    Those people would have the opportunity to observe several Mayors before becoming a Mayor.

Moved by Dunfield, seconded Rundle, to adjourn at 10:00 p.m.  Motion carried unanimously.
