Uh Chair and Commissioners, Rodney Ashby, Planning and Zoning Director for the record.

Um a couple of things.

I just wanted to remind you that um the last time we met, I didn't present the uh quarterly report, but it was in your staff report.

So if you have questions about that, it's pretty straightforward.

It's just three or two maps actually, um, and the numbers that go with all those subdivisions.

I'm happy to answer any questions there if you if you have them.

Um and then just second of all the reporting on council action items, uh May fourth, twenty twenty-six.

Uh the first one was a subdivision final plat approval for the mana commercial park um subdivision, and that was on Carter Road and eleven three sixty-four West Carter Road.

Um you had recommended approval and uh it was approved by City Council on consent.

Next one was the pre-annexation and pre-zoning for the shoemaker storage development.

Uh Northwest of Highway 2026 and Franklin Road.

And you had recommended uh approval unanimously and City Council did approve that unanimously.

Um the next one was for Sagewood Crossing.

Uh this was for RS4 and RS six, as well as R D and BN uh zoning districts.

Located northeast of Lewis Lane and South Side Boulevard.

This was for ninety-five single family attached dwelling units, eighty-three single family attached dwelling units and four commercial lots.

Um you had recommended denial.

This was on the southern end of our city.

You remember that one.

Um and City Council also denied that on a um five to one vote.

Uh next one is annexation and zoning for two RS seven.

Uh northwest of East Iowa Avenue and Chicago Street.

Um this one was required by the county in order to build an accessory structure on the property.

It was just a single family home on there.

Um you recommended unanimously to approve and city council approved it unanimously.

That's all I have.

Thank you.

Yes.

Make a motion to approve the consent agenda.

Second.

Then moved by Garner, seconded by Keyho to approve the consent agenda.

All those in favor?

Aye.

Any opposed.

Thank you.

Okay, we'll go ahead and move right into our public hearing.

If you haven't been here before, um, we will call the applicant up first.

They are allowed seven minutes to present uh what they are doing or what they'd like to do.

Um we'll turn time over to staff, which time they'll tell us their thoughts and findings on the application.

Then we will open it up to public testimony.

Uh at which time uh any of you that would like to speak for, against, or undecided on any item are welcome to come up.

Please give us your name and address for the record.

Um, and then you will have three minutes to tell us what your thoughts are and feelings are on the item.

Um as you sit in the crowd, please be quiet.

We'll have a big group tonight, so it should be fairly easy.

Um because the meeting's being recorded and it's also being um streamed online, and when you speak in the crowd, it does come up pretty good on the mics and gets a little muffled uh for people online if we need to go back and listen to recording at all.

So with that, we will move into public hearing item 3-1, uh comprehensive plan map amendment from low density residential to medium density residential addressed as 5601 East Locust Lane for Ray Bollinger.

This item is continued from April 28th, 2026 due to incomplete property posting by the applicant.

Is the applicant here?

Wouldn't come on it.

Thank you.

Sean Warwell 2239 East Griner Street in Meridian on behalf of the applicant Ray Bollinger, who's here with us in the audience tonight.

Um Mr.

Chair, members of the commission, uh appreciate your time.

Um I'm gonna present a couple items from the staff report, um, talk a little bit about the site itself, and uh, and then give you a little bit of information about why we're here today.

So um from the staff report, future land use map is somewhat flexible and subject to change in the planning and zoning commission is city council may either desire periodically impose or act on a request from a property owner, and so that's why we're here today.

Um I'd first like to thank you as members of the commission uh for your service.

Uh I understand how challenging it can be to be a planning and zoning commissioner, and so thank you for that service.

And the other reason that we're here is because um we understand that through this process we can uh we can bring some changes to an existing code or an existing plan that may not absolutely fit the parcel or the existing uh uh land use that's happening today, and so that's that's the majority of the reason that we're here.

Um the biggest question for this application that that I would have you consider is will a potential change in in the map will that allow for a better project in the community?
