Next case.

Case number 149-2026, a request by Crockett Engineering Agent on behalf of Lake Bradley LLC owner for approval of an 18-lot preliminary plat of R2 two-family dwelling zone property to be known as Old Plank Cottages plat number one.

The 3.68 acre subject site is located at 301 Old Plank Road.

May we please have a staff report?

Yes, she may.

Thank you, Madam Chair.

Real quick on public notice front, uh postcards were sent to 53 neighboring property owners and residents on the 26th of May.

Here's our aerial perspective.

Of course, this is kind of just northeast of the intersection of Bethel and Old Plank Road, just east of the Bethel Church, which you see next to the parcel there.

And then just more contextually, Rockbridge High School is kind of the uh just left of center on the top of the screen with uh VU and the South Providence Medical Center uh on the other side of Providence there.

Um and then of course on the right, you've got uh the intersection of uh South Providence Route K and is at 163 that goes to the state park.

So um so currently the lot is uh well is recently repro annexed and platted.

Sorry, I can't speak right now.

Uh so currently it's known as lot two of the Bethel Baptist Church Platte 1.

Uh again, it was uh annexed and permanently zoned R2 uh roughly a year ago, I believe it was in May of last year.

Um when they subdivided it, they uh the church actually split off this parcel from their main parcel in order to sell it.

Um and then the developer purchased it uh and has submitted this application for development of the parcel now.

So uh they are concurrently seeking BOA approval of the optional cottage development standards.

I believe that's still yet to be approved.

It'll be on the 9th of June, right?

Uh and the um just a note is this site is subject to a sewer agreement that was uh created in 2011.

Um basically they are uh because they're annexed, they're required to build uh infrastructure uh uh to city standards and they are subject to city zoning and subdivision standards, of course.

Um but they will remain uh customers of Boone County Regional Sewer District.

Uh and the reason for that is they're in an area that's actually served by city or it's it's treated by city sewer uh because it's uh secluded from by Topo, basically, uh from being connected back to the Boone County sewer district.

So uh it's in a cooperative agreement area.

Um it really applies to a pretty large swath of land along Old Plank and along Route K on the southwest corner of town there.

So as you said in the opening statement, there's 18 lots.

17 of them are proposed single family uh detached cottage lots, and they're all access from Old Plank via a new public street, um, which is a cul-de-sac as you see on the plan there.

Uh there is a sidewalk existing on the south side of Old Plank.

However, uh there's nothing on the north side, so that will be required upon uh final plating and construction of those lots uh that are on uh that have old plank frontage.

Um and then those lots will also be restricted uh from having any private um residential driveways.

However, uh the lot uh on the southwest corner there is actually a common lot for stormwater detention pond.

Uh so there is no residential driveway proposed there.

So the only lot that is restricted then would be lot 17 on the other side of that uh entrance.

So the primary benefit that uh the applicants are seeking really for the cottage standards uh is the reduced lot width.

Uh the minimum 30 foot, they're proposing 40 foot wide lots, which has been pretty standard in our cottage developments due to constricted uh 30 feet is just too constricted for utilities and driveways.

Um they are proposing 40 foot wide lots, and that allows additional lots to be served off of the one interior street as opposed to trying to fit a uh a loop or some other kind of arrangement and second connection uh that would allow uh for a similar type of build out on the parcels.

So the lots that they're proposing actually range uh from anywhere 5,600 to 12,000 square feet.

Um that's due to the the depth that they're uh created at with the single roadway down the middle.

So um the cottage standards don't really help there uh because uh they're not really encroaching anywhere near the 3,000 uh square foot lot minimum in the cottage standards.

Um I believe 5,000 square feet is the minimum for R2 anyway, so they're above that as well.

Um the other thing is they do reduce uh well the cottage standards reduce the uh rear yards and front yards to 10 feet.

Um however, they are showing proposed setbacks on the plan, uh front 25 feet and uh rear 20-foot setbacks.

So uh they are taking advantage a bit of um the 20-foot rear instead of a 25 foot, but otherwise they're uh consistent with standard R2 um lot dimensional standards.

So uh the street is compliant with street standards.

Uh it's got a 28-foot uh pavement width, 50 foot ride of way.

Uh 28 feet is a little narrow when it comes to allowing parking.

Uh so if you're so inclined, uh condition could be added to the the approval uh restricting parking to one side of the street.

We've discussed that on a number of our cottage developments uh recently that I can remember.

Um that would be in the form of a development developer imposed restriction on the plat when it goes to council.

Uh the other option would be to um condition approval on an increase in the pavement width to allow uh for appropriate width for parking on both sides.

Um however, the the kind of return on investment uh with that is that uh the trade-off for that is that you have the increase increased impervious area uh with the additional pavement.

Um and then there's just the increased construction cost and the affordability implications uh that would ultimately be passed on to the property uh buyers uh affecting the affordability of those homes, which is one of the uh you know primary goals of offering the smaller lots and the smaller footprint homes.

So uh with that, the conclusion uh the plat is consistent with the goals of Columbia Imagine and the housing study offering uh in fill development with a mix of housing types and integrating housing types within existing neighborhoods.

Uh it provides for all necessary infrastructure and related easements and the recommendation of staff would be for approval of the old plank cottages plat number one preliminary plat pursuant to technical corrections.

Um the name of the street was not approved prior to the staff report being created.

It was resubmitted as of today, and so that approval is still forthcoming.

Uh and then, of course, if you would like to add any of those optional um conditions, I would add them to your motion.

Be happy to answer any questions.

Thank you.

Before we go to questions for staff, if any of my fellow commissioners have had contact with parties to this case outside of a public hearing, please disclose so now.

Seeing none questions for staff.

Um I have a question.

Um if they didn't want the 40-foot watt lot width, they wouldn't need cottage approval.

Is that right?

Not sure I follow the so the standard lot width would still be 60 feet uh without the cottage standards, so they are benefiting from the narrowed lot down to the 40, but uh the cottage standards would allow the a minimum of 30 actually.

So they're not fully using that uh that leeway they're given with the potential cottage standards, but it and like I said, that's been very common with our cottage developments because developers have found that the 30 is just not wide enough for the the functions that have to be put in the front yard.

And if we had already done our small lot integrations, they wouldn't need to go to board of adjustment at all.

Uh okay.

Yeah, that's indicating that's correct.

Yeah.

Okay.

I just clarifying in my head, because part of the reason that we're doing that small lot integration is so people don't have to go to board of adjustment for developments like this.

This seems like a very moderate and reasonable thing, and and the fact that they're having to go through the second step in the process is what we're trying to avoid.

So I'm just clarifying that that's my head's right about that.

Commissioner Gray, did you have something?

You asked my question.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Any other questions for staff?

Seeing none, we will go to public comment.

If any members of the public are here to speak on this case, please come forward.

We allow six minutes for the applicant and groups, three minutes for individuals.

Please speak carefully and closely into the mic.

State your name and address for the record.

Thank you.

Madam Chair, members of the Commission, Tim Crockett, Crockett Engineering 1000 West NIPHON.

I'm here tonight with Jim McAlester, uh, who represents uh Lake Broadway LLC, who is the applicant uh for the proposal before each night.

Um staff did a good job on the staff report uh on this project.

I would like to note that when you look at cottage developments and one of the criteria is you know, vicinity to uh to to schools and parks uh and and and other resources.

But when you look at where this site sits, uh Rock Ridge Elementary is uh not very far to the east.

Um Gentry Middle School is not too far to the north, and of course, Rockbridge High School is not very far away either.

Um and then just a few blocks to the north is uh is uh Bethel Park.

And so I believe this is a good location for uh a development like this.

And when you look at uh varied housing types, that's another option, another item that we want to look at in our community.

When you look at what's around us, we're surrounded on two sides with duplexes.

Uh we have townhouses to the south of us.

There's a high percentage of uh single family that's further to the north and higher density apartments, but the one thing that's not here is cottage homes.

So I think that that would fit in really well uh in this area, given just another uh housing option uh for this location.

Um this proposal uh not much different at all than other proposals that's been approved by this board recently.

Uh North Ridge Cottages, Corriente, Evergreen, Amberton, uh just to name a few of cottage developments that have been approved in a similar type fashion.

Uh with regards to restriction of parking and the pavement width, uh again, what's being proposed here tonight is very similar, if not the same as what was proposed on those other developments that have worked out really well.

Uh the 28-foot wide street, that's no different than what we have for any other residential development.

That's a city standard.

Um so we don't see the widening would uh would be beneficial here and then restricting parking.

Again, it's it's this it's a standard city width, whether this is a duplex or whether this is single family residential or cottage.

Uh the standard is a 28-foot wide street.

So um this mimics other cottage developments that have worked out really well.

Uh we think it's going to work out well here tonight.

Um so if you have any questions for us, I'm happy to answer any that you may have.

Thank you.

Are there any questions for the speaker?

Seeing none.

Thank you for being here.

Anyone else to speak on this case tonight?

Please come forward.

Seeing none, we will close public comment and go to Commissioner comment.

Is there any commissioner comment on this case?

Commissioner Darr?

Uh regarding the street width or parking restriction, I'm okay with it just as is and not adding additional parking restriction or additional width.

Um I don't personally see the need to add that and make it a functional development.

So I wouldn't be in favor of that.

Anyone feel differently?

Commissioner Walters?

I just had a question regarding the uh uh uh motion that might be made.

Should the Board of Adjustment approval of cottage standards be a part of that motion?

Yes, because the plaque can't be approved unless the Board of Adjustment approves the standards.

Yes, it would be conditioned on that as well.

Sorry.

Anyone want to make a motion or further comment?

Commissioner Walters, go ahead.

Yes, I'd like to make a motion in regard to case number 149-2026 for the approval of the old plank cottages plat number one preliminary plat pursuant to technical corrections that include the street name approval by the Boone County something something.

Joint communication joint communications and the uh Board of Adjustment Approval of the Cottage Standards.

Is there a second?

Second.

Moved by Commissioner Walters, seconded by Commissioner Gray.

Is there any discussion on the motion?

Seeing none, Commissioner Brodsky, may we have a roll call.

My vote is yes.

Commissioner Darr.

Yes.

Commissioner Goway Jones.

Yes.

Commissioner Gray Bow.

Yes.

Commissioner Gray.

Yes.

And Commissioner Walters.

Yes.

Motion carries.

Thank you.

That recommendation will be forwarded to City Council.

Next case, case number 157-2026, a request by Tyler and Crystal Lorrigan owners to allow property addressed as 1804 Juniper Drive to operate a 210 night maximum six guest short-term rental pursuant to Section 29-3.3 V V and Section 29-6.4 M2 of the Unified Development Code.

The unit sought for licensure is the eastern half of a duplex addressed 1804 Juniper.

And there is sufficient parking on site.

The.24 acre subject site is located at the southeast corner of Rock Quarry Road in Juniper Drive.

May we please have a staff report?

Yes, you may, and thank you for the introduction.

Again, point two four acre site, 210 nights of short-term rental usage are being requested with up to a maximum of six transient guests, which does require three parking spaces.

Public notice was distributed for this case.

Public hearing letters were on the 18th, of which there were 42, and an ad was placed in the Tribune according to state statutes on the 19th of May, alerting the public of this public hearing.

Illustrated here, you can see the red box kind of illustrates where the site is.

It is a side-by-side duplex in which there's three bedrooms in the unit that is being requested for short-term rental.

And there again, six guests requested requires three parking spaces.

From measurements that we have from the Boone County parcel viewer, it appears that two spaces can be accommodated in tandem in the driveway and one in the garage without even having to um impede on uh the other side that presumably can be left available for tenants uh for the other unit.

Um the applicant has noted that this property was previously offered as a short-term rental but under a different owner of the property.

Um and staff could not identify any short-term rentals within 300 feet of this site uh registered or not.

Additionally, um, from what we saw, um, zero of the surrounding dwelling units uh appear to be owner occupied.

Um there sometimes can be issues with uh matching addresses, so um that that number may not be uh hundred percent correct, but we did not have any matched addresses between ownership and uh address of structure whenever those were compared.

Um so the designated agent for this property lives in Columbia, around three and a half miles away from the property or five minutes regarding code violations.

There was an illegal short-term rental operation code violation for this site, and this was closed on the 23rd of December in 2025, so any operation for short-term rental usage that um was occurring uh previously has ceased.

Um there was no public response to the distributed notice for this request.

Um ultimately uh staff's conditional use permit analysis would support approval for compliance uh of this request and the short-term rental regulations to provide additional oversight and means to address impacts uh beyond what would be if it were unregistered.

Um approval is supported uh in staff's belief uh by the broad policy strategies and actions of the comprehensive plan.

Uh so ultimately the recommendation of staff is to approve the requested short-term rental conditional use permit subject to a maximum occupancy of six transient guests, a maximum of two hundred and ten nights of annual rental usage, and keeping one spot in the garage available for transient guests.

Uh and if the commission has any other questions, be happy to answer them now.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Before we go to questions for staff, if any of my fellow commissioners have had contact with parties to this case outside of the public hearing, please disclose so now.

Seeing none, are there questions for staff?

Commissioner Gray.

Thank you.

Sorry, just to clarify, um the uh legal operation was with a previous owner.

I am not sure if the the code violation that was noted as being uh illegally operated was under separate ownership.

That may be a question that's best suited for the the applicant here.

Uh I didn't look at the deed necessarily, um, but this was in our code violations within our internal software system.

And it was marked as closed for what it's worth.

Okay.

I'm uh sorry, I was just looking at that and comparing it to the staff report where it said that operation was with a previous property owner, but it didn't list violations on this one.

Yeah, it was it may have been an oversight to not include that code violation, or I may have not included it because it has been closed, but the applicant did note that it was previously operated as a short-term rental under separate ownership.

Okay, thank you.

Yeah, thank you.

Any other questions for staff?

Commissioner Darr.

Just following up with Commissioner Gray.

Uh the deed was April 13th this year.

It changed ownership.

Okay.

Thank you.

Any other questions for staff?

Seeing none, we will open the floor to public comment.

Any members of the public who would like to come forward, please do.

We allow six minutes for the applicant and groups, three minutes for individuals.

Please state your name and address for the record and get comfortable with that microphone.

Perfect.

Well, uh, I'm Tyler Lorrigan, uh 2073 1 West 68th in Shawnee, Kansas.

Um I appreciate the time, the consideration for this.

Uh as noted, that was uh I guess first I've heard of any kind of the issues with the previous case that was previous ownership.

Um I'm in town quite a bit just from I have a couple of pretty big clients here that I'm in town on at least a monthly basis.

Uh we come in town for football games, different things.

That's part of the reason for for doing this.

And then uh obviously if we're not here, this is you know kind of another another big part of it.

Uh Ryan Kruger is the property manager, he's here as well.

So if there's any questions that you guys have, we're happy to answer that.

Any questions for this speaker?

Commissioner Darr?

Uh, how close is Ryan to uh this location?

Like how quick can you get there?

Like 3.8 miles, so five to ten minutes.

Thank you.

Any other questions?

Seeing oh, sorry, go ahead, Commissioner Darr.

Have you operated any other short-term rentals?

Like nothing.

Have not.

So this will be your first time.

Yeah, first.

And that's that was the primary reason why we have the property manager for that, just to make sure we're navigating everything correctly.

Okay.

Thank you.

Yep.

I have a question.

Yeah.

You I guess April wasn't that long ago.

It feels like April was forever ago.

I was gonna say, what have you been doing with it since, but it's only been a couple of months.

Well, so we've actually uh the picture that was brought up from the outside that one.

We've spent uh 10,000, 15,000 just cleaning up the landscaping that despite all the stuff inside.

So we've had uh we've done a lot of cleanup, I think just for that corner uh if nothing else.

So I it it's still in progress, but it's already looking a whole lot better.

Took out a took out a couple of trees, cleaned off all the brush, and kind of smoothed a lot of it out.

So I think the uh the lot itself, just from definitely from the outside looks much different than the picture right now.

Thank you.

Yep.

Oh, Commissioner Gray.

Yeah.

Um you bought the entire duplex.

Yes.

We own yes.

Uh what is your plan for the other uh that's gonna be a long-term tenant.

Okay.

That's that's the goal for it.

And um what do you plan to do to ensure that that is like a cohesive environment?

Ooh, that's a great question.

You're welcome.

Yeah.

Um I I think part of it is yeah, when we go through with the the management company when they're screening the applicants, part of that application process will be to obviously inform them, let them know that that is the intention for that.

Um then from there, I guess if that's uh to their purview of not wanting that next door, they'd know that.

But in all reality, my uh assumption is that's not gonna be occupied probably the 210 nights one way or the other.

So I would expect minimal uh minimal pushback to that, but that's expectations right.

Thank you.

Yep.

Any final questions?

Thank you very much.

Yeah, thank you.

Next speaker on this case, please come forward.

Brian Kruger, uh 1000 West Night, um also own RTK rentals.

Um not the same building as uh as Tim Crockett.

Um same area.

Um just follow up to to back it up.

But I mean we have RTK rentals, so we've managed several units uh throughout the city.

Um so we would be managing the long-term rental as well as the short-term rental and just helping to ensure that everybody, anybody who rents the short-term rental, assuming it's approved, uh, would be fully aware of what's going on there and that there's a long-term tenant, and also that the long-term tenant would be aware that their neighbor would potentially be a short-term rental.

Um Tyler and I have known each other our whole lives, so that part's nice.

It just makes it a little easier to work together on a project like this.

Um we don't typically deal with a lot of short-term rental stuff.

This is kind of a new situation for us.

I have had a little bit of experience um with it prior to there being an ordinance.

This was 10 years ago.

Not completely um, could you state your name and address for the record again, please?

Um yes, Ryan Krueger.

Um thousand West NIFON.

Thank you.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Thanks.

Um questions for Mr.

Kruger.

See none, thank you very much for being here.

Thank you.

Anyone else to speak on this case?

Seeing none, we will close public comment and go to commissioner comment.

Is there any commissioner comment on this case?

If not, would anyone like to make a motion?

Commissioner Brodsky.

Um I don't want to make a motion uh as Secretary.

I usually leave that to the my fellow commissioners, but I did just want to say uh to the applicant, thank you for um coming in and doing this um uh the right way from the get-go as was noted.

You just purchased the property in April and are already uh doing better than the previous property owner.

Anyone like to make a motion?

Commissioner Gray?

Um as it pertains to case 157 2026, 1804 Juniper Drives, STR conditional use permit.

I move to approve the requested STRCUP, subject to maximum occupancy of six transient guests, maximum of two hundred and ten nights of annual rental usage, and keeping one spot in the garage available for transient guest.

Is there a second?

Second.

Seconded by Commissioner Darr.

Is there any discussion on the motion?

Seeing none, Commissioner Brodsky, may we have a roll call.

My vote is yes.

Commissioner Darr.

Yes.

Commissioner Goway Jones?

Yes.

Commissioner Grabo, yes.

Commissioner Gray?

Yes.

And Commissioner Walters.

Yes.

Motion carries.

Thank you.

That recommendation will be forwarded to City Council.

Next, public comments for the evening.

If any members of the public are here to speak on topics of a general nature and would like to come forward, please do so now.

Seeing none, we will move on to staff comments, Mr.

Zinner.

So as we discussed today in work session, your next meeting will be next week.

Uh not on June 18th, due to our impending uh shutdown of both our council chambers and conference rooms 1A through 1B starting on June, uh, if I'm not incorrect, June 16th, and that will run through July 10th.

So council will not meet until July 20, and then you will meet again on July 23rd.

Um we do have cases, and it will not be nearly as quick on the 11th as it was this evening.

So I won't be here, so maybe it will be.

Um your first case is a tabled item uh as we discussed at the beginning of tonight's agenda.

124-2026.

This is the Rock Quarry Road PD rezoning, PD plan, um, and uh just south of Grey Oak Drive.

Uh the second case, and this is the order that they will come in on the agenda.

So you all will be text at the beginning of the meeting.

Uh 162, uh this is 1205 University Avenue.

Another plan development request uh and a PD plan.

Uh this is uh taking the this is a PD plan that deals with um uh the um University Place apartment building uh and other structures within that block uh being consolidated into a single proposed uh development plan for student-centric housing.

Uh 16626 is a short-term rental in the uh R two zoning district, um, if I recall correctly.

Um, I apologize, R1 zoning district.

Uh 210 night for transient guests.

Uh this is a property that has previously been used as short-term rental, uh, though for a limited amount of nights, uh, but was originally cited in 2025.

The applicant finally is coming around to uh closing out the application process.

Uh and then the last item on the agenda will be another short-term rental request uh off of Richardson Avenue.

Uh this is an RMF zoning district.

Uh they are seeking 210 nights and eight transient guests.

However, the parking associated with the site only permits a maximum of six without a supplemental condition being added to have a parking space added.

Um David will be doing both of the short-term well, he'll actually be doing all of it.

So you guys get to listen to him uh on the 11th uh from work session all the way through the end of the meeting.

So it would be nice.

I don't want to come back and find out that he's decided to retire on me.

Um those are your cases for this evening.

Enjoy your hiatus between July June 11th and uh the 23rd.

Uh we will uh endeavor to uh have uh another four or five cases on the June 23rd agenda, uh July 23rd agenda.

Uh and I have a application deadline on June 15th uh that could increase that number.

Um these are your locations if you're not familiar, uh our Rock Quarry project, our University Avenue project there at the corner of University and College, our Whorley Street Project, uh, and then our Richardson Street project.

Um as we introduced this evening during our work session, uh if Steve you will come up to the the dias for us or the staff side.

Um we have uh hired uh our new senior planner uh for our long-range planning operation, uh Steve Roth uh comes to us with uh over 20 years of city management experience, uh primarily working in smaller municipalities.

Uh however, a significant uh amount of his time uh in his prior post was working with zoning uh ordinances, subdivision development, as well as dealing with comprehensive planning uh at the level that we will anticipate him to be uh utilized here.

Uh it is a relief uh to finally be able to have uh a senior planner uh with the capabilities and the skills uh that Steve brings to the department so we can uh uh move forward to uh get our RFP for the comprehensive plan launched before the uh uh end of this fiscal year.

We anticipate that uh will be sometime in July, end of July, early August, with a hopeful uh um signing of a consultant uh sometime just before the beginning of the new fiscal year, which is October 1.

Uh we will probably begin then uh in earnest uh comprehensive plan related meetings after the beginning of the calendar year.

So that is the schedule uh in the interim period of time, of course.

We have got a lot of other work that we're working on that we will hopefully wrap up and uh be able to move forward.

We are presently working uh through the boards and the commissions that our city council asked us to meet with in regards to the definition of family.

We had the opportunity to meet with the uh human rights commission on Tuesday of this week.

Uh Mr.

Smith will be meeting with our Disabilities Commission next week, uh, and then the collegiate advisory council we will not be able to meet with until uh school resumes uh in the fall.

So we will not be bringing that project back to you anytime soon.

But what we are asking our boards and commissions that we are meeting with is that they provide us uh in writing their general comments and their statements and recommendations as it relates to the definitions.

Um we have offered them uh what the current proposal is, and as an alternative, going to a full IPMC model.

Uh so that is what they are commenting on as we are talking with them uh from the planning side.

I don't have anything else to add.

I just wanted to make sure Steve was on camera so the public could see who he is because we're going to bury him in an office uh over the next several months.

He'll be reading and uh he'll come out probably a different man when we're finished.

Um but we are hopeful that we will have a strong team player to help us navigate the process that we are moving forward with.
