RE: MADISON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL MASTER PLAN - SHORT & LONG TERM GROWTH The first item on the agenda Madison Memorial Hospital Master Plan. Keith Steiner, Chief Executive Officer of the Hospital, John Watson, Architect, and members of the Board of Trustees Louis Rasmussen and Beverly Ricks were at the meeting. Keith Steiner handed out some Sheets showing the long term growth and use of the hospital and explained it. The plan addresses their immediate needs and also long term growth. (copy attached} John Watson explained the plan. The hospital has two projects they would like to do this summer, roofing the old building and paving the parking area that is already used for parking. He understood that to pave the parking was a conditional use and needed to go before the Planning & Zoning and to give the Planning & Zoning an overview as to where they are heading with everything. The plan showed the second level, they will expand out toward the old building with cafeteria, physical therapy, and an elevator to drop down into the old building to maximize the use of the old building. The big issue they are facing is parking. The only access to the back of the hospital is the road which the ambulances take, the fire truck would take the same road and all the staff. There is a greater need for out patient and so there would be more vehicles. Right now they are parking in the gravel area in the back. This summer they are proposing to put a fire line in for fire trucks and replace the asphalt in front of the emergency entrance and continue asphalting the parking lot in the back and asphalt a road onto Millhollow. John Watson said they wanted to give the board an overview on what has been proposed and what the opportunities are for parking expansion. They are requesting to move forward with the fire line and asphalt. They fully intend to satisfy the landscaping requirement which is 10~. A discusaion about the drainage and discussion on the fire line, John told him that state requirements were a 6 inch line. Discussion on ~~ paving the Helicopter Pad. John Watson said they had a neighborhood meeting to review the plans and there was very minimal negative comment. John Millar said from the feed back he had heard the critical issue would be the access on to Millhollow because Millhollow is already busy and they would be putting a parking lot across from residential property. Mr Steiner said they are trying to strike some balance. He said the staff will be the ones using the parking lot and they are on shifts and will be coming in and out at regular times. The majority of materials management and storage will be in the old building. Patients will be using the parking in the front, and ambulatory patients will still come in the south access. The back parking lot is being used at the present time, but it isn't paved. Their request is just to pave the parking lot and put in drainage which will be solved with the curb and gutter. John Watson said :they would comply with the zoning ordinance with the lighting of the parking lot; it does have lights at the present time. The board discussed whether they would need a Conditional Use Permit. John Millar said because the parking lot is already being used, a Public Hearing would not be required, it would only be a courtesy. The hospital staff have already had a meeting with the neighborhood. A motion was made by Scott Mortensen to support the proposal presented to pave the back parking lot, the curb cut onto Millhollow and the surface drainage onto Millhollow. Seconded by Jim Long. All Aye RE: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT DENIED FOR BRAD CARSON FOR 2 DUPLEX APARTMENTS ON CORNELL AND 3RD SOUTH Next on the agenda was a proposal for a Conditional Use Permit for Brad Larson to build two Duplex Apartments for student housing on Cornell and 3rd South. A group of residents from Cornell Ave was at the meeting. The board reviewed the plans that had been re-drawn and sent in by Brad. John put the plans up so those attending the meeting could see them. Brad did not attend the meeting because of other commitments. The board discussed the plans, the size of the parking, the parking spaces were not the required measurements and there was not an alley way between the parking lanes. You could get parking in one side but not the other side. They could not approve the parking, it was not in compliance with the ordinance. It was denied. Lenore Passey asked what the new Zoning regulations were in the zone on their street. John explained. A motion was made by Dave Pincock to decline the request for the Conditional Use Permit to build two duplex apartment. They cannot build two duplex and have the required parking. He could not fit the required parking on the lots. Seconded by Marsha Bjornn. All Aye. Bill Henderson was on the agenda, he will bring his plans in next Month. ~~ ~ RE: A PRESENTATION OF THE WALKER PROPERTY PRELIMINARY PLAT - DISCUSSION - MOTION PASSED TO ACCEPT WITH WRITTEN CONDITION A presentation of the Walker Property Preliminary Plat. John Millar ask Mary Ann Mounts to chair this issue because he was involved. The plat was presented at the last council meeting and their concern was the future plat was tied in to county property and the city has no control over it. The recommendation was made by the council to the Walker's that they either cut their plat back to be in compliance of what is currently in the city limits or to annex the rest of their property. On the new plat they showed the area outside the city limits as future development with the area within the city limits as the initial development phase. The only area that this does not fall into complete compliance with the ordinance is in instead of putting in a permanent turn a round or cul-de-sac at the end of the street. John had elected to move it into the county area. It will still be constructed, but as the development moves east that would be eliminated and the road would continue on toward the east. At this time it would end up a dead end road and the area to the east might not develope. Jim asked about a green belt - bike -jogging path. John said there will be 25 feet along the river dedicated to the city which goes to the highway right-a-way shown on the final plat for that purpose. (discussion on the turn-a-round). John said Walkers will be required to build the turn-a-round. The road has to be built before the lots are occupied. That part of the subdivision that is in the county will be in the impact zone. A motion was made by Jim Long that we accept the plat as drawn with the written condition from Walkers that they commit to extending the road at the time it is completed. Seconded by Da Vawn Beattie. Those voting aye: Jim Long,Marsha Bjornn, Da Vawn Beattie, Scott Mortensen, Jeff Walters, Abstaining: Dave Pincock. RE: PUBLIC HEARING TO ESTABLISH THE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY OWNED BY VAL DIETRICH AND MORRELL/RIGBY LOCATED WEST OF THE PARKVIEW, STARLITE, AND TAYLOR SUBDIVISIONS. 8:30 P. M. Public Hearing to establish the zoning for the property located west of the Parkview, Starlite and Taylor Subdivisions and which has previously been annexed to the City. The property is owned by Val Dietrich and Morrell Rigby Estate. John Millar read a letter from Bill Henderson (attached) His concern is he would like to see property use consistent with the existing use of the surrounding property. He requested it be zoned for residential use only. John stated that the main portion of the property is agricultural and we do not have an agricultural zone. Val Dietrich- He is the owner of the property just. west of the Park Street church. They have had several offers and have tried to pick the one that would be most compatible to the area. He had taken the offer from Jerry Merrill, who would put it into potential residential and grow trees and have a shop. It would probably be a tree farm. He had not seen anything in the ordinance for the need of the property. He suggested a residential with a business overlay. He would have sales of the trees from the property. He would build a house in the future. ~ ,~ A ~ t~' John Millar asked if Mr Merrill would be opposed to zoning the property residential with a conditional use permit for the tree nursery. Jerry Merrill proposed he would like it zoned residential with a light commercial overlay so he could run his business off the same piece of property. He planned to build a home on the east side next to the residential area and have the business on the west where there is nothing and in between would be the trees and they would act as a buffer zone. A discussion on the airport zone relative to height. He would enter the business from the west. He would come off the road from the church to his residence. The traffic would come from the west and there would be minimum traffic from Park Street. John said there was a city street on the south, east and west of the church. Jim Long asked what happens if we zone it residential now with his business on his property and later it is developed all around it with homes, and he will have his business there under the grandfather clause. John said we don't have a zone Residential with a business overlay. The entire property doesn't have to be zoned one zone. Linda Marques - She lives on West Main. She didn't know how it would effect them. Her property would be effected by the zoning on the Morrell Rigby property. John said one option is we might develop an agricultural zone and zone it agricultural, there are two separate parcels of property. She said residential would be preferred not apartments or business. John said if we zone it agricultural we will have to amend the ordinance and define it. We need to consider these two properties separate. The meeting tonight is to get public input and we do not have to make a decision tonight. Dave asked Jerry to clarify the type of trees. They would be about 12 foot trees. He would grow them for his own use in landscaping. Scott Mortensen asked if he puts a home on the property will he need to have curbs and gutters and streets. John said only if it is set for public access, if it is for private access it is a long driveway. Some option we have on the zoning is agricultural but we would have to amend the ordinance. Mary Ann said there are different kinds of agriculture. Dave Pincock said in the zone LDR it has agriculture. Jim Long said he was oppose to establishing a residential zone at the end of the airport. Mary Ann suggested LDR1. Jim said he did not want to see houses in there and if it was zoned LDR1 people could put houses in there. Then they will want the airport moved. John said if we go commercial and the tree farm doesn't work it could go into a Truck Stop. It is in the flight pattern. John Millar suggested that we take it under advisement for the next meeting for final discussion. Jim ask what if we recommend that it be zoned agricultural but it might take six months to get it done. John said as he hears it the only recommendations would be Agricultural, LDR1, or commercial, but we don't want to recommend it Commercial. A motion was made by Jim Long that we recommend it be zoned agricultural, that we develop an agricultural zone in the city and with a strong recommendation that it not be zoned LDR1. That would include • all the property. Mary Ann suggested that we wait and get the other property owners that own the other part of the property involved. The board felt we need to get a definition of agricultural. The mayor was at the meeting and stated that we need an agricultural zone for the Impact Zone. Jim withdrew his motion. The board told him because it isn't zoned they can do what they want with the property and when we do zone it, the use will be grandfathered. Jeff Walters made a motion to recommend that we develope an Agricultural Zone and table the the zoning of the property until the zone is defined. Seconded by Mary Ann Mounts. Those voting Aye: Jim Long, Mary Ann Mounts, Marsha Bjvrnn, Davawn Beattie, Jeff Walters, Scott Mortensen. Those voting Nay: Dave Pincock RE: REPORT ON THE IMPACT ZONE MEETING Scott Mortensen reported on the Impact Zone meeting that was held a week ago. The county is committed to the Impact Zone. They had a couple of proposals drawn up by the Assistant County Attorney. They recommended that we have two more members on our Planning Board from the Impact Zone. They suggested two or three agricultural zones. The board questioned if we need a Rural Sub Division, which would not require curb and gutter. The County Commissioners will have the power to appoint the two new members. Jim Long suggested that we need a working meeting. Rose was asked to contact Ranae Magee about some definitions of the agricultural zone and find out what other cities are doing. RE: DISCUSSION & RECOMMENDATION MADE FOR CURB & GUTTER, COVERED DITCH, AND ONE-WAY DROP OFF WITH SIDEWALK FOR NEW MIDDLE SCHOOL Mary Ann Mounts reported on the meeting with the Middle School. They don't want to put in curb & gutter or cover the ditch. We don't know where the road will go, so they don't want to put in curb and gutter and then have to take it out. They would grade the ditch down. They said they would give us a letter of intent. We don't have anything to make them cover the ditch. The board was concerned if they don't put the curb and gutter in now they would not have enough money to do it later. They said they would put in a drop off zone. They were concerned about not having a sidewalk. They looked at the plan and discussed it. Marsha felt that there was a safety factor involved with covering the ditch, it is a deep ditch. Mary Ann agreed about the ditch. Jim Flamm said he was more concerned about the area to drop of the kids than curb and gutter and sidewalk. John Millar said there was no reason we could not have both. The bids came in low and they should have enough money. Jeff Walters said if they don't have enough money the priority should be a safe drop off. Bruce Sutherland was at the meeting and suggested they make the sidewalk part of the drop off. (discussion) Da Vawn was concerned about the entrance. • ~i~~ t =t 6 A motion was made by Mary Ann Mounts that we recommend they have to put . in curb and gutter as required by the city ordinance. Seconded by Jim Long. All Aye A motion was made by Dave Pincock and seconded by Scott Mortensen that we recommend that they cover the ditch. All Aye A motion was made by Jeff Walters recommended that they put in a one-way drive drop off and incorporate a sidewalk as part of the drive through drop off. Seconded by Jim Long. All Aye RE: NEW MEETING SCHEDULE FOR PLANNING AND ZONING A discussion on the meeting schedule for the summer. A motion was made by Dave Pincock that we meet twice a month. The extra meeting would be on the 2nd Wednesday at 7:30 P. M. if needed. Rose and John would decide if we need to hold the extra meeting each month. Motion was seconded by Da Vawn Beattie. All Aye RE: DISCUSSION OF SOUTH ARTERIAL COLLECTOR The city is looking at changing the South Arterial Collector. (showing the map) This map shows the 11th South alignment. That is on our Master Plan and that is what is on the State Urban Map. An alternate proposal the city is looking at is instead of swinging and coming along 9th would be to continue the sweeping curb off the U.S. 20 and come up 7th to 2nd West and follow across. Basically we would develop 7th South from 2nd West East. The college wants us to develop 7th South and in the future 11th South and swing over to 7th or come up 11th all the way. A motion was made by Dave Pincock to set it for Public Hearing to change the map and change the Comprehensive Plan for May 13 for public input. Seconded by Scott Mortensen. All Aye Meeting Adjourned. • nnnnnir7r ~~ ~/// ~/ W.R. Henderson Construction, Inc. General Contractors April 15, 1992 Rose Bagley, Secretary Rexburg Planning & Zoning Commission P.O.
