THAT PD WAS RECENTLY CREATED TO CREATE A BUSINESS PARK.
THIS PROPERTY WAS INITIALLY INTENDED TO BE AN INDUSTRIAL PARK, WAS PREVIOUSLY ZONED M.1, BUT IS NOW ZONED FOR PD 47, WHICH ALLOWS FOR OFFICE USES. THE PROPOSED USE ON THIS PLOT IS FOR MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING.
SO GIVE A LITTLE HISTORY TO THE PROPERTY. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2017, CITY COUNCIL APPROVED A CONVEYANCE PLOT DIVIDING THE THE THE BUSINESS PARK INTO 7 LOTS 1 OF WHICH WAS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
THIS IS A PORTION OF ONE OF THOSE LOTS, AND THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO REPLOT THIS PROPERTY.
2.7 ACRES FOR A COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT FOR 2 MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS.
SO THIS SLIDE SHOWS, SHOWS THE PLOT DRAWING. SOME OF THE EASEMENTS ARE HIGHLIGHTED.
ACCESS AND UTILITY EASEMENTS, WATER EASEMENTS, DRAINAGE EASEMENTS.
AND I'LL GO THROUGH THOSE AND MORE OF THEIR PURPOSE.
THERE, IN LIGHT PURPLE. I'VE HIGHLIGHTED AN EXISTING DRAINAGE DITCH.
[00:05:03]
THE SHEET SHOWS THE PROPOSED UTILITIES IN BLUE.THEY'RE PROPOSING TO LOOP WATER THROUGH THE PROPERTY AS REQUIRED.
FIRE HYDRANTS AND WATER SERVICE FOR THE TWO BUILDINGS WILL COME OFF OF THAT WATER LINE, AND THE SEWER LINE IS SHOWN IN GREEN AS 2 SEWER SERVICES COMING OFF OF THE BUILDING AND CONNECTING INTO AN EXISTING SEWER MAIN IN CORPORATE DRIVE.
THE THE PLOT WILL DEDICATE EASEMENTS ON TOP OF THOSE UTILITIES.
THE STORMWATER, WATER AND SEWER LINES SO THOSE UTILITIES CAN BE PROPERLY MAINTAINED.
THERE ARE A COUPLE OF OTHER MINOR ITEMS TO THE REPLY THAT NEED TO BE CORRECTED.
THOSE HAVE BEEN NOTED IN THE STAFF REPORT AND ARE HERE ON THE SCREEN.
THESE ARE MINOR CHANGES TO TO THE TEXT ON THE PLOT.

THEY WILL BE REVISING THE DRAWING PRIOR TO THE REPORT.
I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU ALL MAY HAVE. HOW MUCH PARKING IS GOING TO BE? AND MAYBE I'M JUST NOT SEEING IT, BUT THE PARKING FOR IT.

SUBJECT PROPERTY IS ZONED PD 18. PD 18 WAS CREATED PRIMARILY FOR RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT WITH A COMMERCIAL DISTRICT ALONG FM 75 AND MONTE CARLO BOULEVARD.
SO THE PURPOSE OF THE AMENDING PLAT IS TO TAKE WHAT WAS LOT 1 AND SUBDIVIDED INTO 2 COMMERCIAL LOTS.
LOTS 4 AND 5 ARE SHOWN HERE. AND TO PROPOSE EASEMENTS NECESSARY FOR THE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT.
SO SUBJECT PROPERTY ON THIS MAP IS SHOWN HIGHLIGHTED IN GRAY.
AND JUST TO THE SOUTH IS ANOTHER COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, THE MCDONALD'S ADDITION.
THEY'RE PROPOSING A REGIONAL DETENTION POND THAT'S HIGHLIGHTED IN PURPLE.
IT'S ALL STORMWATER FROM THE SUBJECT. 2 LOTS WILL DRAIN INTO THIS PROPOSED POND.
THIS POND WILL NEED TO BE CONSTRUCTED BEFORE ANY CONSTRUCTION CAN COMMENCE ON THE SUBJECT.
PROPERTY IS THAT POND IS NEEDED TO SERVE THIS SUBJECT SITE.
SO HERE'S THE THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. PROPOSED DRAINAGE OF STORM WATER PIPES THAT WILL CONVEY STORMWATER TO THE SOUTH WILL EVENTUALLY CONNECT INTO THAT FUTURE REGIONAL DETENTION POND. THIS SLIDE SHOWS THE PROPOSED WATER AND SEWER LINES THAT WILL SERVE THE DEVELOPMENT.
[00:10:01]

I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU ALL MAY HAVE. POINT OF CLARIFICATION.
SO. CLARIFICATION SHOULD I ABSTAIN? I KNOW WHO THEY ARE.
I KNOW A LOT ABOUT THEM. BUT IN MY OPINION, IF YOU'RE NOT AFFILIATED WITH THEM, LIKE IN BUSINESS, PROFESSIONALLY, IF YOU DON'T WORK FOR THEM I DON'T I DON'T THINK IT'S NECESSARY.
I'VE NEVER LOANED THEM ANY MONEY, SO. I JUST WANT CLARIFICATION BECAUSE MY OPINIONS, ALTHOUGH I'M ON, I'M NOT ON COUNCIL. I MIGHT FEEL OTHERWISE IF I WAS ON COUNCIL.
OKAY. HAVING A VOTE. OKAY. THANK YOU. I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE DENY. F2, F.2 PL20263158. PRELIMINARY PLAT AMENDMENT. MONTE CARLO MCDONALD'S ADDITION BLOCK A LOT 1 TO SHOPPES AT MONTICELLO.

AND THAT WILL PASS 4 TO NOTHING. MOVING ON TO F.3.
I PROVIDED A MEMO TO YOU IN THE AGENDA WITH SOME ATTACHMENTS.
THE CITY ENACTED A RESIDENTIAL BUILDING MORATORIUM ON SEPTEMBER 23RD, 2024.
PUTTING A PAUSE TO ANY NEW APPROVALS ON RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.
THAT MORATORIUM WAS EXTENDED 2 TIMES. AND THEN ON NOVEMBER 17TH, CITY COUNCIL VOTED TO END THE MORATORIUM ON NOVEMBER 30TH, 2025. SO THE MORATORIUM IS NO LONGER IN EFFECT.
BUT DURING THAT TIME, THE MORATORIUM WAS IN EFFECT.
THE CITY STAFF DID TAKE THAT OPPORTUNITY TO UPDATE SOME PLANS AND POLICIES.
AND SO I PROVIDED A SUMMARY OF THAT IN MY STAFF REPORT.
THOSE WERE ADOPTED ON MARCH 24TH, 2025. THE PURPOSE OF THOSE GUIDELINES IS TO TO SHOW THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY THE TYPE OF RESIDENTIAL GROWTH THAT THE CITY OF PRINCETON WANTS THAT THOSE GUIDELINES GO INTO.
IDEAL LOT SIZE, SIZE OF HOMES, ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES, COMMUNITY AMENITIES, OPEN SPACE AND THE SUCH.
THOSE GUIDELINES ARE INCLUDED IN THE AGENDA. THEY'RE POSTED ON THE WEBSITE AND WE WILL USE THAT.
CITY STAFF WILL USE THAT IN A COMMUNICATIONS WITH DEVELOPERS.
THIS IS WHAT THE CITY IS LOOKING FOR AND THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT THAT WE WOULD SUPPORT.
RECENTLY DECEMBER 8TH, 2025, CITY COUNCIL ADOPTED A NEW POLICY.
THE PURPOSE OF THIS POLICY IS TO HELP ENSURE THAT FUTURE PROJECTS THAT USE A PED WILL PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC BENEFIT TO THE CITY, THAT PROJECTS WILL BE ESTHETICALLY PLEASING, BE A BENEFIT TO THE CITY AND WHAT THE CITY WANTS, THAT THAT POLICY WAS JUST CHANGED OR JUST ADOPTED.
[00:15:05]
IN DEVELOPMENT SERVICES, DURING THE MORATORIUM, WE IMPLEMENTED ZONING AND PLAT CALENDARS TO STREAMLINE THE SUBMITTAL PROCESS.SO IT'S CLEARLY OUTLINED TO THE DEVELOPERS WHEN THEY CAN SUBMIT PLOTS, WHEN THEY CAN SUBMIT ZONING CASES, WHEN THEY SHOULD EXPECT COMMENTS BACK AND ANTICIPATED PLANNING AND ZONING AND CITY COUNCIL DATES.
SO THOSE CALENDARS ARE POSTED AND WE FOLLOW THOSE WITH ALL, ALL APPLICATIONS THAT COME BEFORE YOU? 3 ORDINANCES WERE RECENTLY UPDATED IN THE FALL.
NOVEMBER 10TH. A RETAINING WALL ORDINANCE. A NEW DRAINAGE ORDINANCE AND A CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION ORDINANCE, ALL AIMED AT IMPROVING THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT THAT'S BUILT HERE IN THE CITY OF PRINCETON.
PUT EVERYTHING INTO 1 DOCUMENT THAT WE CAN SHARE WITH THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY SO THEY CAN UNDERSTAND ALL OF OUR EXPECTATIONS, ALL OF OUR PROCESSES FROM A TO Z. AND THEN ALSO PRINCETON'S PLAYBOOK, WHICH IS AN UPDATE TO OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND PARKS AND TRAILS MASTER PLAN.
THAT EFFORT IS ONGOING. YOU WILL SEE A DRAFT OF THOSE PLANS SOON.
IN THE COMING MONTHS. IT'LL GO BEFORE YOU ALL.
THAT PLAN WILL GUIDE THE CITY'S GROWTH INTO THE FUTURE, WHERE WE'LL HAVE RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS, WHERE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE COMMERCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND SO FORTH.
SO PROVIDED LINKS TO THOSE DOCUMENTS IN THE REPORT.
AND WITH THAT HAPPY TO ENTERTAIN ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU ALL MIGHT HAVE ON THIS MATTER.
