Folks that are still coming in, but um you know take your time.

Um I would like to call the October 7th uh meeting of the City of John's Creek Planning Commission to order.

Um at this time I would like to ask everyone to please silence or turn off your cell phone.

This planning commission is a recommending body to the mayor and to the city council, and we follow guidelines in conjunction with a public hearing to assist in formulating that recommendation.

Copies of the planning commission's procedures and staff reports are available at the entrance to the chamber when you came in.

The presiding officer will call cases on the agenda for public hearing.

First, the presiding officer shall recognize the planning staff to make a presentation of the case with their recommendations, and then we will open to the public hearing.

The applicant shall receive a time period of 10 minutes to present their case.

If there are any concurrent variances, each shall grant the applicant an additional 10 minutes of time.

That time is kept by the planning staff here on the right.

The applicant may choose to use their entire allotment or reserve portion of their time for a rebuttal.

Any member of the hearing body upon recognition by the presiding officer may ask questions of the applicant or an agent of the application or the applicant.

The period of questions from the planning commission is not deducted from the applicant's time period.

The opposition, if there is any, is granted an equal time period per application to present their data, evidence, and opinions.

If a large number of people wish to speak in opposition, it is advisable that you elect a spokesperson to make that presentation.

The city is not obligated to provide the full time period to opponents if they elect not to use their time, and the opposition is not granted a rebuttal period.

Any member of the hearing body upon recognition by the presiding officer may ask questions of any person giving public comment.

After completing this process, the presiding officer will indicate that the public hearing is closed.

Upon closing the public hearing, the planning commission can no longer be addressed by the applicant or opposition.

The planning commission may ask questions of city staff at that time, and once all those questions have been asked and addressed, the presiding officer will call for a motion.

And if that motion is properly seconded, we will call for a vote on the matter.

The presiding officer will then state the vote and recommend recommendation for the record.

Starting with my right, um Commissioner Horton, Commissioner Carnwall, Commissioner Jackson, Commissioner Anand, Commissioner Ross, and Commissioner Katzen on the far your right.

All right.

At this time, the first item on the agenda is the approval of the July 8th meeting minutes.

We actually haven't had a meeting in a little while.

So uh has everybody had a chance to review the meeting minutes?

They were pretty short and pretty much.

I'll make a motion to approve them as is.

Okay, go ahead.

Okay.

Any discussion?

All right.

Hearing no discussion, um, all those in favor of approving the meeting minutes.

Aye.

Anybody opposed?

No.

Abstain.

Yeah.

Thank you.

So the motion passes 60 with one abstention.

The first item of business on the agenda is land use petition SUP-25001 with three concurrent variances.

Thank you, Ms.

Argerwall.

Good evening, Commissioners.

Um is Rutia Garval.

I'm the planning and zoning manager with the City of John's Creek, and I'll be presenting tonight's land use petition, which is SUP-25-0001 with three concurrent variances, and the numbers are listed there.

VC-25-0002, VC-25-0003, and then 0004.

The subject property here on the graphic here is the zoning map, which shows the agricultural zoning, AG1.

It is 4.872 acres, and the address is 10505, 10509, and 10625 Jones Bridge Road.

So it's a property is a combined property of three parcels here.

The request is for a special use permit, SUP, to allow for a 22,500 square feet of church building with three concurrent variances.

The first variance is to reduce the hundred-foot church building set back to 50 feet along the west property line.

The second variance request is to allow temporary grading and land disturbance within the 25-foot undisturbed buffer and 10-foot improvements at back along the west property line.

And the third variance is to reduce the 50-foot undisturbed buffer and 10-foot improvement setback to a 20-foot undisturbed buffer along the rear property line.

So as you can see, the aerial map on your screen here, the subject property, which is outlined in black, is currently zone 81.

It is 0.2 miles northeast of the intersection of Jones Bridge Road and Vice Road.

It is bounded by Jones Bridge Hills subdivision to the east.

Cameron Crest Farm Subdivision and Dolwyn Elementary School to the South.

So I should point that as I'm talking.
