OKAY [ Brentwood Planning Commission Briefing October 29, 2026 Click on Download PDF Packet above to view Briefing Agenda This informational meeting is an opportunity for the Planning Commission to discuss the upcoming agenda, to ask questions of staff and applicants, and to request additional information prior to the formal Monday meeting.] [00:00:02] FOR OUR UPCOMING AGENDA. OKAY, COOL. ALRIGHT, SO, UM, WE'RE GONNA GO AHEAD AND GET STARTED WITH THE CONSENT AGENDA. UM, ITEM NUMBER ONE. ITEM NUMBER ONE IS A MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION FOR MARYLAND FARM SOUTH AT TWO 10. WESTWOOD PLACE THE BUILDING THAT'S RIGHT BEHIND US RIGHT HERE. UM, THEY ARE THE TYWOOD PROPERTIES. THEY'RE REQUESTING MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION TO ADD TWO DOORS AND RELOCATE ONE DOOR TO CREATE A NEW EGRESS INGRESS POINT. THE MODIFICATION DOES NOT, EXCUSE ME, CHANGE THE PARKING RATIO, LANDSCAPING OR GREEN SPACE ON THE WISE. SO IT IS BASICALLY JUST A WASH AT THE END. SO THEY'RE JUST MOVING SOME DOORS AROUND. I THINK ON THAT LAST SLIDE, I THINK THOSE LABELS ARE FLOPPED IF YOU WANNA FIX IT EXISTING DOOR, IT'S POINTING TO PROPOSED NEW DOORS. YEAH, THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE GOT IN CONTACT WITH THE APPLICANT. OKAY. ON SO MADE. YEAH, 'CAUSE WE WANTED SOME CLARIFICATION ON THAT BECAUSE, SO BUT FOR THOSE AROUND, YEAH AND THEY'RE SWAPPING THESE AS WELL AND THERE'S ALREADY A RAMP BACK THERE TO WALK ON SO THEY'RE NOT HAVING TO GET RID OF ANY OF THAT GREEN SPACE OR LANDSCAPING SIDE. ALRIGHT. ANOTHER MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION FOR 1 44 WILSON PIKE CIRCLE ZONING IS C FOUR. GENDER DESIGN REQUEST APPROVAL OF THE MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION FOR A BUILDING ELEVATION MODIFICATION. THE APPLICANTS REQUESTING TO PAINT THE EXISTING BROWN BRICK TO A ALABASTER WHITE. UM, IS IT ALL, IT'S LIKE AN OLD GROCERY STORE. I BELIEVE IT WAS HS. YEAH. SO THAT'S THIS KIN TURNING. YEAH, THIS IS FOR THAT. IT'S LIKE A FARMHOUSE FARM STORE. A FARM STORE HOUSE. YEAH. A LOT. SO THEY'RE JUST PAINTING IT TO THAT WHITE. THEY'RE NOT CHANGING THE COLOR OF THE ROOF OR ADDING ANYTHING ELSE. JUST ALL THEY'RE DOING IS JUST PAINTING. MAKE IT LOOK LIKE MISS THE BUILDING'S DOWN THERE. NO. AND THEN Y'ALL WILL PROBABLY SEE THIS AGAIN FOR SIGNAGE SINCE IT'S C FOUR. YEAH. SIGNAGE AND C FOUR HAS TO BE APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION. BUT FOR NOW THEY'RE WORKING ON PAINTING THE BUILDING AND THE INTERIOR AND CHANGING THE COLOR REQUIRES FIRE. FIRE SPRINKLING SYSTEMS. THAT'S JUST THE CONDITION THAT OUR FIRE MARSHAL PUT ON THERE IS JUST KIND OF LIKE A HEY HEADS UP. SO ARE THEY GONNA HAVE TO DO THAT? YES. THAT WILL HAVE TO BE SPRINKLED. YEAH. HAVE THEY STARTED INTERIOR WORK? I DON'T, I DON'T THINK SO. WE CAN DOUBLE CHECK. WILL WE APPROVE THAT SIX MONTHS AGO OR SO? YOU GUYS HAVE NOT SEEN THIS YET? SEEN THIS ONE YOU GUYS SAW THE LOT DIRECTLY TO THE SOUTH, WHICH WAS THE BANK. OH, THE BANK. YEAH, OUR BANK. YEAH. ARE THEY PLANNING TO ADD NEW HVAC UNITS? I'M JUST CURIOUS WHY THE CONDITIONS AS FAR WE ARE JUST PUTTING THAT AS A PRECAUTION. SO WHEN IF THEY DO ADD NEW HVAC, THEY ARE AWARE THAT THEY HAVE TO SCREEN IT. SAME WITH SIGNAGE, SAME WITH SPRINKLING, SO ON AND SO FORTH. IT'S JUST LIKE A, HEY, HEADS UP AS YOU MOVE FORWARD IN THIS PROCESS, BE AWARE THAT YOU HAVE TO MAINTAIN THESE THINGS AND YOU KNOW, IN ORDER TO GONE IT HELPS STAFF ALSO, WE USE THE APPROVAL LETTERS WHEN THEY SUBMIT THEIR PERMITS. WE'LL LOOK AT THE APPROVAL LETTERS AND LOOK AT THOSE CONDITIONS AND CHECK AND MAKE SURE EVERYTHING'S ADDRESSED ON THE PERMIT OR THE PERMIT PLANS. GOOD QUESTION. OKAY, SO OUR NEXT ONE IS A REVISED HILLSIDE PROTECTION FOR UH, 5 1 1 8 VICTORIA COVE LOCATED IN STONEHENGE PROBLEM. OH, IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A COMMA. YEAH, . . ALRIGHT, SO, UM, WOODWARD HOMES REQUEST APPROVAL OF REVISED HILLSIDE PROTECTION SITE PLAN AT 5 1 1 8 VICTORIA COVE. THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS INCLUDE THE ADDITION OF A 75 FOOT LONG SIX FOOT TALL RETAINING WALL IN THE BACKYARD OF THE EXISTING RESIDENCE TO CREATE A MORE LEVEL YARD. A BLACK ALUMINUM FENCE WILL BE IN INSTALLED AT TOP OF THE RETAINING WALL FOR FALL PROTECTION. THE PROJECT ALSO INCLUDES THE REPLACEMENT OF THE SYSTEM DRIVEWAY WITH A BRUSHED NATURAL LIGHT GRAY CONCRETE AND THE REPLACEMENT DRIVEWAY WILL MAINTAIN THE EXISTING FOOTPRINT AND LAYOUT. NOW THERE ARE STILL 12 STANDARD CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. SO THE UM, RETAINING WALL IS GONNA BE BACK HERE TO KIND OF LEVEL OUT A MORE USABLE, UH, YARD. IF THEY'RE NOT CHANGING THE [00:05:01] HOME AT ALL. NOT THAT WE KNOW OF. OKAY. NOW GOOD WAY NOT TO SAY IN THE FUTURE. YEAH. UM, SINCE THIS, YOU KNOW, THIS IS AN OLDER SUBDIVISION SO I'M SURE AT SOME POINT WE WILL SEE THESE 'CAUSE A LOT OF LIKE STONEHENGE AND BRENTWOOD HILLS, THEY'RE ALL THOSE LIKE SPLIT LEVEL STUFF. AND YOU GUYS HAVE ALREADY SEEN ONE OF THOSE OFF WEST CONCORD. YOU MAY HAVE SAID THIS. WHAT, WHAT IS REQUIRES THIS TO BECOME PLANNING COMMISSION. WHAT? UH, SO BECAUSE IT'S LOCATED WITHIN THE HILLSIDE PROTECTION OVERLAY, DISTRICT PLANNING COMMISSION'S REQUIRED TO APPROVE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE LOT OR THE HOUSE EXTERIOR WISE, INTERIOR WISE, WE WOULD DO IT WITH A PERMIT. BUT THIS HAS TO DEAL WITH SOME SIGNIFICANT GRADING AND RETAINING WALLS. IT'S JUST LIKE A WALL THAT'S GOING UP IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND THAT'S WHY I WAS ASKING. BUT YEAH, SO, AND THEN DUE TO THE HEIGHT IT HAS TO HAVE SOME FALL PROTECTION SO THEY'RE PUTTING A FENCE ON TOP OF IT. RIGHT. ITEM NUMBER FOUR IS ANOTHER MINE SITE PLAN ALTERATION FOR BUILDING ELEVATIONS AT MARYLAND FARMS BUSINESS CENTER LOCATED AT 5 3 0 1 MARYLAND WAY. UM, A SD SKY REQUEST APPROVAL OF A MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION. THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO MODIFY THE BUILDING ON THE WESTERN SIDE BY REMOVING AN EXISTING DOOR TO EXPAND THE INTERIOR SPACE, WHICH CREATES A LARGER INDOOR EMPLOYEE BREAK AREA. AND THE PROPOSAL ALSO ADDS TWO SETS OF FIXED STOREFRONT WINDOWS. SO, HERE, CAN YOU GO BACK TO SLIDE? SO THIS IS EXISTING RIGHT HERE. SEE THEY HAVE THAT DOOR. THEY'RE BRINGING THAT OUT TO THIS RIGHT HERE. AND IF YOU GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE, THEY'RE ADDING THESE STOREFRONT WINDOWS SO THE EMPLOYEES CAN SEE OUTSIDE AND THEN THERE'LL BE INTERIOR SEATING. IT'S GONNA BE LIKE A LITTLE, YEAH, THAT'S WHAT THE INTERIOR'S KIND OF GONNA BE RENDERED AS. UH, SNACK AREA. YEAH, IT'S SNACK BAR FOR THE TAPING OUT THE DOOR OR JUST ELIMINATING, THEY'RE JUST ELIMINATING THE DOOR JUST TO CREATE JUST TO, IS THAT, DOES THAT GIVE ENOUGH FIRE EXIT ACCESS IF YOU TAKE ONE OF THE DOORS OUT, I MEAN TYPICALLY THAT'S WHERE THOSE DOORS ARE THERE, RIGHT? YES. UM, WE CAN, OUR FIRE MARSHAL, YOU KNOW, HAS REVIEWED THIS AND HASN'T SENT THESE OUT. OH, OKAY. IT'S ALREADY EXISTS. JUST CURIOUS ON MULTIPLE ADDRESS PRESS POINTS. AND THAT'LL GET LOOKED AT TOO WITH THE, 'CAUSE THEY'RE DOING A INTERIOR PERMIT WITH THIS ONE AS WELL. OKAY. OFTENTIMES WITH A LOT OF THESE, THERE'S ALSO INTERIOR STUFF BEING WORKED ON AT THE SAME TIME THAT STAFF'S LOOKING AT ADMINISTRATIVELY WHAT IT'S WORTH. THE, IT LOOKS LIKE CURRENTLY THE OTHER CORNER OF THE BUILDING DOESN'T HAVE THE DOOR AND IT'S SQUARED UP. OKAY. ALRIGHT. UM, OUR NEXT ONE IS A REVISED PRELIMINARY PLAN FOR THE ARCADIA SUBDIVISION FOR PHASE TWO AND PHASE THREE. THIS IS LOCATED OFF OF RAGSDALE ROAD AND YOU GUYS HAVE PREVIOUSLY SEEN THIS ONE. SO THIS IS THE PROPOSED REVISIONS INCLUDE THE REMOVAL OF LOT 46 WITHIN PHASE THREE, RESULTING IN ADJUSTMENTS TO THE LOT LINES FOR LOT 45 AND 44 AND PHASE THREE AND THEN ALSO LOT 37 AND PHASE TWO LOTS 44 AND 45 ARE DESIGNATED AS HILLSIDE PROTECTION LOTS AND ARE PROPOSED TO HAVE A SHARED DRIVEWAY. THE PREVIOUS APPROVED PRELIMINARY PLAN SHOWED AN EXCESS OF 53.45 ACRES WHERE THE REVISED PRELIMINARY PLAN SHOWS AN EXCESS OPEN SPACE OF 64 POINT 10 ACRES. UH, THE CHANGE IN OPEN SPACE CALCULATIONS IS DUE TO THE REVISIONS THAT AFFECT LOTS GREATER THAN ONE ACRE IN SIZE. AND THEN SINCE THIS IS A REVISED OSRD DEVELOPMENT PLAN, UH, THIS ALSO HAS TO BE APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS. SO THIS WILL BE A RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL TO THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS. SO LOT 46 IS REMOVED PERMANENTLY? YES. SO THEY LOST ONE LOT, ESSENTIALLY ONE LARGE LOT. ONE VERY LARGE LOT. SO HP, NEW HP LOTS ARE REQUIRED TO BE OH THREE OR MORE ACRES. YEAH. AND THESE BOTH OBVIOUSLY EXCEED THAT. SO THEY'RE, WHAT THEY DID IS WE'VE GOT A LITTLE EXHIBIT. SO THEY GOT, THEY CHANGED, SO THEY GOT RID OF LOT 46, WE'VE GOT 44 AND 45. AND THEN THEY TOOK SOME OF THAT LAW AREA AND GAVE IT TO 37 OVER HERE. ADDED TO 30. SO YES, JUST A LITTLE BIT. SO THE ELIMINATION OF THE ONE LOT PLUS REALIGNMENT WITH 44 AND 45 DEGREES, [00:10:01] IT'S AN ADDITIONAL EXCESS OF NINE ACRES OF OPEN SPACE. THEY GET LOTS OVER ONE ACRE AND OSRD NOT NECESSARILY GET PENALIZED FOR OPEN SPACE, BUT THERE'S A CERTAIN CALCULATION OF IT AFFECTS OPEN SPACE FOR LOTS MORE THAN ONE ACRE WITHIN OPEN SPACE. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. OUR NEXT ITEM IS A MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION ANOTHER BUILDING ELEVATIONS FOR A NEW RESTAURANT, UM, FOR FLOWER CHILD TO BE LOCATED AT HILL CENTER, WHICH IS WHERE, UH, MAPLE STREET IS THIS COMPANY PREVIOUSLY WAS AND THEN BEFORE THAT WAS HOLLER AND DASH. SO THERE, THERE'S A LOT GOING ON ON THIS ONE. UM, OBVIOUSLY IT'S GONNA BE FLOWER CHILD. WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING TO DO IS TAKE THIS STOREFRONT HERE THAT'S A COMBINATION OF WOOD AND GLASS PANELS AND MAKE IT INTO WHAT'S CALLED A RAISED STOREFRONT. SO THEY'RE TAKING ALL OF THIS AND TURNING IT INTO GLASS WITH, UM, GREEN ACCENTS. AND THEN THEY'RE DOING AN INTERIOR MURAL ON A SOFFIT THAT'S LIKE BACK INTO THIS SPACE. SO THIS MURAL'S NOT ATTACHED TO THE GLASS. YOU'LL SEE THROUGH THE GLASS, WHICH YOU CAN KIND OF TELL IT'S NOT ATTACHED OVER HERE WITH THE PLAID. UM, THEY'RE ADDING A PATIO HERE TO THE FRONT WITH STREAM LIGHTS, UM, SOME AND UH, FLOWER APPLIQUES ONTO THE WINDOWS. THEY'RE ALSO ADDING A NEW FABRIC AWNING THAT'S STRIPED GREEN AND WHITE WITH NEW PATIO RAILINGS THAT MATCH THE NEW PATIO THEY'RE DOING OVER HERE. THEY ALREADY HAVE AN EXISTING PATIO, UH, AND THEN THEY'RE DOING SCREEN, UM, ROLL DOWNS FOR ALL WEATHER DINING. UM, OBVIOUSLY A NEW SIGN FOR FLOWER CHILD. HERE'S A SIDE RENDERING OF THE FABRIC AWNING WITH THE PATIO AND THE BRICK LOOKS DIFFERENT. ARE THEY DOING SOMETHING TO THE BRICK OR THEY'RE NOT? IT'S JUST THEIR AI UM, GENERATION RENDERING. IT'S, IT WILL STAY THIS, UH, BRICK WITH THE STONE ON THE EDGE. AND THEN THEY'RE ALSO PROPOSING A UH, BLADE SIGN. IS THERE A BLADE SIGN THERE NOW? I THINK THERE IS. YES THERE IS. RIGHT. UM, RIGHT THERE HERE ON THE BOTTOM. SO THEY'RE TAKING THAT AND PUTTING IT UP HERE AND THOSE SIGNS WILL BE APPROVED SEPARATELY FROM YEAH, SO WE'RE INTERNALLY REVIEWING THE SIGNS. UM, AND THEN THIS IS WHAT THE PATIO RAILINGS WILL, IT'S LIKE A DECORATIVE RAILING AND THEY HAVE APPROVAL FROM HILL CENTER FOR ALL OF THESE CHANGES. IT'S GREAT FOOD BY THE WAY. IT IS REALLY GOOD FOOD. OH, THEY'RE ALSO ADDING, UM, THESE GREEN GO, UH, LIGHTS ONTO THE SIDES OF THE BUILDING. IT'S A LOT OF GREEN. IT IS A LOT OF GREEN. IT IS THEIR SIGNATURE COLOR. NO CHANGE TO THE WINDOWS OR DOORS ON THAT SOUTH SIDE. THE FLOWER? NOT THAT I KNOW OF. I HAVE NOT TOLD YOU OTHERWISE EITHER. ARE YOU LIKE, LIKE THE BACK ENTRANCE? NO, THE SOUTH SIDE, WHICH WOULD BE WHERE THE NEW AWNING GOES. WINDOWS. I DON'T IF ANYTHING THEY'RE PAINTING AT. YEAH, THERE IS A DOOR THERE. SEE THERE IS A PATIO AND OOPS, SORRY. TODAY'S THE GATE. SINCE THERE'S NO'S CHANGING THAT'D PROBABLY THERE ENTRANCE. IT JUST SHOW IT. BUT THERE'S A DOOR. YEAH, THERE'S A DOOR HERE FOR TO EXIT. AND I'M ASSUMING THAT THE WINDOWS THAT ARE HERE, THEY'RE GONNA PAINT GREEN, BUT THERE'S A DOOR IN THAT SERIES OF WINDOWS TO GET OUT PATIO. YEAH. ALONG THE BUILDING ITSELF. YEAH, THERE SHOULD BE. AND I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANY CHANGE. AND THERE'S ONE AROUND THE CORNER TOO. YEAH, I THINK IT'S GOT THREE ENTRANCES. OKAY. YEAH. SO ARE WE, HOW DO I PUT THIS? ARE WE OPENING OURSELVES UP? I THINK IT'D BE GREAT TO HAVE THEM THERE. RIGHT. AND THEY HAVE GOOD FOOD AND SO I'M NOT REALLY NEGATIVE EXCEPT IT IS REALLY GREEN AND SOMEWHAT OF A DEPARTURE FROM [00:15:01] WHAT EVERYONE ELSE HAS DONE SO FAR IN THAT AREA. ARE WE OPENING OURSELVES UP TO SOME SORT OF PRECEDENT THAT WE MAY OR MAY NOT WANT TO SET, THAT WE OUGHT TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE WE WE DON'T GET TO CHOOSE PRECEDENT. WELL, I KNOW, BUT I JUST, THEY FOLLOW ALL OF OUR RULES THAT WE HAVE. OKAY. SO WE CAN'T GO AND SAY, HEY, WE DON'T LIKE GREEN. WELL, EXCEPT THAT WE, I GUESS LOOK AT WHAT WE DID WITH KROGER, UM, WHERE WE SAID IT DOESN'T REALLY SIT WITH THE REST OF THE, WE CAN MAKE SOME RECOMMENDED RECOMMENDATIONS. YEAH. SO I I JUST, I'M NOT MISTAKEN. KROGER SOME LEVERAGE AND SO YEAH, SO I MEAN DIFFERENT, DIFFERENT ENTIRELY. SO. OKAY. I WILL SAY THIS IS DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT THAN WHAT THEY HAVE A UH, ORIGINALLY SUBMITTED TO STAFF, WHICH IT HAD PAINTED MURALS AND IT WAS COVERED. AND OBVIOUSLY WE DON'T ALLOW FOR, UH, MURALS. WE CONSIDER THEM PART OF SO WELL YEAH, I'M HAPPY TO HAVE THEM. YES. I I JUST THOUGHT WE OUGHT TO TALK ABOUT THAT 'CAUSE IT IS AN BIG CHANGE. WERE THOSE CHANGES REQUIRED BY HILL CENTER? NO. HILL CENTER I BELIEVE WAS OKAY WITH THE MURALS, BUT BECAUSE THEY'RE, THE MURALS THAT THEY WERE POSING WERE VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT THEIR NAME OF FLOWER CHILD IS. UM, WE CONSIDERED SOME ADDITIONAL SIGNAGE AND THEREFORE, UM, WOULDN'T AND COULD NOT APPROVE 'EM. SO THAT IS WHY THEY, THEY'VE COME BACK WITH THIS, UH, RAISED STOREFRONT WITH THE INTERIOR SOFFIT MURAL PROPOSAL. I, I WORRY A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE OUTDOOR SEATING AT THE FRONT. THAT NEW THAT THAT ONE ON THE SIDE HAS BEEN THERE FOREVER. YEAH. OKAY. BUT OUTDOOR SEATING CREEP CAN, CAN WORK THEIR WAY IN AND I THINK IT'S MORE OVER ACROSS THE STREET AT THE BOIL CENTER WHERE THEY DIDN'T PLAN FOR OUTDOORS AS WELL AS I THOUGHT THE HILL CENTER DID. AND I MEAN I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF ROOM THERE, BUT THEY'RE USING A LOT OF THAT, THAT SPACE. BUT IT MUST MEET CODES OR WOULDN'T BE THERE, RIGHT? YEAH. SO WE WERE, UH, ANY ADDITIONAL PATIO WE REQUIRE THEM TO HAVE LIKE IT'S COUNTED AS RESTAURANT SQUARE FOOTAGE SO THEY HAVE EXCESS PARKING TO DO IT. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS PORTION WILL ACTUALLY BE USED FOR SEATING AND MORE SO A WAITING AREA. IT HAS TABLES IN IT. YEAH. IF IT DOESN'T HAVE COVERING IT'S GONNA BE HOT . YEAH. SO I DON'T, AND THAT'S WHY I DON'T, THERE'S BEEN CONVERSATIONS BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THE APPLICANT. UM, AND I I DON'T THINK IT'S TOO ACTUALLY USED AS LIKE SIT DOWN SEATING. IT'S ACTUALLY THE SIDEWALKS ARE VERY, VERY WIDER. IT IS PLENTY SPACE AND IN THE WINTER IT MIGHT BE A GREAT PLACE TO SIT IN THE SUN . SO I MEAN ANY OBLIGATION TO HAVE NOTIFY BUSINESS TO IN LEMON GRASS 'CAUSE THAT THEY'RE ALSO A RESTAURANT. IT WOULD FALL ON. I MEAN IT'S PRE IT PREVIOUSLY WISER RESTAURANT. SO IT'S ALWAYS BEEN A RESTAURANT. UM, BUT I THINK THAT WOULD FALL ON HILL CENTER. THAT BE WITH REGARD TO THE OUTSIDE SEATING, WHICH WOULD BE RIGHT. OH YEAH. BE RIGHT AT THEIR DOOR. NO LEMON GRASS. I THINK WOMEN LEMON GRASS ON THE OTHER SIDE HAS SEATING. IT'S ON THE FIRE SIDE. THE OTHER SIDE. YEAH, THERE'S SEATING THEIR DOOR. YEAH, THE DOOR IS, YES. I AGREE. YEAH. THE DOOR ENTRANCE IS NEXT TO THIS BUT I THINK THEY DO HAVE OUTDOOR SEATING ON THE OTHER SIDE. THEY DO OTHER SIDE. YEAH. AND THEY'RE ALSO TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF CUISINE. DO Y'ALL WANNA KEEP THIS ON CONSENT? OKAY. ALRIGHT. JUST THOUGHT I WOULD GAUGE THE ROOM AND DOUBLE CHECK. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS ONE OR COMMENTS? ALRIGHT, SHERRY, NONE. WE WILL MOVE ON. GREAT. ITEM NUMBER SEVEN IS ANOTHER MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION FOR MARYLAND FARMS BUSINESS CENTER AT 5 3 0 1 MARYLAND WAY. SAME ADDRESS AS A COUPLE, UH, ITEMS BEFORE DIFFERENT PLAN END. CARSON LASH REQUESTS APPROVAL OF A MINOR SITE PLAN ALTERATION AND THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO RELOCATE FOUR HANDICAP SPACES TO THE RIGHT IN ORDER TO MAKE ROOM FOR A SPORTS COURT FOR EMPLOYEES. THE CHANGE WILL NOT AFFECT OVERALL PARKING CALCULATIONS AS THEY'RE JUST MOVING OVER THOSE FOUR SPACES AND IT WILL NOT AFFECT GREEN [00:20:01] SPACE EITHER. THE SPORTS COURT WILL ALSO HAVE A FENCE TO REDUCE VISIBILITY FROM THE PARKING LOT. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, OOPS, SORRY. THERE'S A KIND OF LIKE A, A REFER RENDERING OF WHAT IT'S WOULD LOOK LIKE. YOU HAVE THE SITE, THERE'S JUST MOVING THE PARKING OVER HERE. YEAH. THAT'S APPROVED WITHIN THE CODE ALREADY. THE USE, THE AMENITY USE. YES. FOR THE, UM, C ONE ALLOWS FOR AMENITIES FOR THE TENANTS SIMILAR TO WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING ON THE INTERIOR OR THAT'S JUST GONNA BE SPECIFICALLY TO THE, THE TENANTS OF THE BUILDING. MM-HMM . AND NOT LIKE A, UM, COMMERCIAL COMMERCIAL LIKE COFFEE SHOP, WHICH IS UM, WHY THEY'RE REQUIRED TO HAVE THE, THE WINDOWS INSTEAD OF UM, DOORS AND STUFF LIKE THAT, WHICH WE'VE SAW IN A PREVIOUS REVIEW. CAN I IMAGINE THE FENCING AND THE LIGHTING WALKING FOR YES. YEAH. AND IT'S ALL COMMERCIAL AROUND THERE. , WELL SHOOT SOME HOOPER AND LUNCH. HOW? UNLESS YOU'RE AN EMPLOYEE HAS A BASKETBALL COURT, RIGHT? WHAT'S THAT? TRACTOR SUPPLY HEADQUARTERS HAS A BASKETBALL COURT AFTER I LEFT. YEAH, I THINK THEY ADDED ONE OUT PACK. COOL. HORSES SHOES. ALRIGHT, MOVING ON TO REGULAR. UM, SO WE HAVE, UH, IN ORDINANCE FOR ASSIGNMENT OF ZONING. UM, YOU GUYS HAVE PREVIOUSLY SEEN THIS FOR ANNEXATION. SO THIS IS OUR PUMP STATION THAT IS LOCATED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF HILLSBOROUGH ROAD THAT IS ACCESSED THROUGH, UH, AN ACCESS EASEMENT WITH CPA FROM OLD HICKORY. THIS IS CREW SUBDIVISION THAT WE RECENTLY ANNEXED AND ZONED AS UM, OSRD AND R TWO FOR A RESERVE PARCEL. SO SINCE WE BROUGHT THIS INTO THE CITY, WE FIGURED, WELL WE MIGHT AS WELL BRING THIS INTO THE CITY AS WELL. 'CAUSE IT'S HANGING OUT IN THE COUNTY AND WE OWN IT. YEAH. SO, UM, THAT IS WHY YOU GUYS ARE SEEING IT. SO THIS IS MOVING THROUGH THE PROCESS. SO WE COULD DO OUR RESOLUTIONS FOR OUR, UM, REQUEST TO ANNEX AND PLAN OF SERVICES, AND THEN WE ASSIGN ZONING TO THE PROPERTY DURING THE ANNEXATION WITH AN ORDINANCE. SO THAT IS WHY YOU GUYS ARE SEEING THIS. AND TONIGHT, UM, THERE IS A COMMUNITY MEETING FOR THE ASSIGNMENT OF ZONING AND PART OF THAT AND THE PUBLIC HEARING LEAVE THAT IS TO SURROUNDING RESIDENTS WITHIN A THOUSAND FEET IN WILLIAMSON COUNTY SLASH THERE RESIDENCE WITHIN A THOUSAND DAVIDSON. IS THERE ANY RESIDENCE WITHIN A THOUSAND FEET? UM, THERE ARE A COUPLE. A COUPLE. UM, I WAS JUST CURIOUS. OVER HERE IN DAVIDSON COUNTY. OKAY. AND THEN THESE ARE PROPERTY LIKE OWNERS. I'M A PROPERTY OWNER. I, I GET IT. SO I THINK THAT LIKE CPA GOT A NOTICE, SOME, SOME METRO RESIDENTS GOT NOTICE AND THEN PEOPLE WHO OWN THESE PARCELS GOT NOTICE AS WELL. THAT MAKES SENSE. YEAH, THERE'S NOT, NOT A LOT OVER HERE AS OF RIGHT NOW. . NOW OBVIOUSLY WHEN CRUISE DEVELOPS, WHAT'S THE PROPERTY TO THE WEST? THIS ONE OVER HERE? YEAH. I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T, I THINK IT'S PRIVATELY OWNED. I DON'T THINK IT'S PART OF CPA. I THINK CPA STOPS RIGHT HERE. I'M NOT SURE IT'S OUTSIDE OUR URBAN GROWTH FOUNDRY. YEAH. SO THIS RIGHT HERE IS THE LIMITS OF HOW FAR WE CAN GROW. OH, THIS IS THE LIMIT OF OUR, YEAH, THIS IS THE LIMITS OF OUR GROWTH TO THE WEST. CURRENTLY, CURRENTLY CURRENT URBAN GUARD BOUNDARY COMMITTEE MATES IN YEARS. UM, SO AGAIN, THIS IS FOR THE ASSIGNMENT OF ZONING. TONIGHT IS THE REQUIRED COMMUNITY MEETING. UH, AND THEN YOU GUYS WILL SEE IT FOR THE PLANNING COMMISSIONER REVIEW. THEN IT'LL GO BACK TO THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS FOR A PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE ORDINANCE. AND THEN NOVEMBER 23RD WILL BE THE FINAL RESOLUTION, ANNEXING THE PROPERTY INTO BRENTWOOD. AND THE FINAL ASSIGNMENT OF ZONING FOR SI THREE, WHICH IS OUR, UH, SERVICE INSTITUTION, GOVERNMENTAL, GOVERNMENTAL ZONING DISTRICT. AND THERE'S NO PROPOSED PLANS OR ANYTHING AS THIS IS OUR, UH, PUMP STATION TO EQUAL EQUALIZATION TANK [00:25:02] PROPERTY FOR OUR WATER SERVICES DEPARTMENT. OKAY. NEXT ITEM ON REGULAR IS A PRELIMINARY PLAN FOR A NEW SUBDIVISION CALLED ALDER HEARST. THIS IS LOCATED OFF OF LIBERTY CHURCH ROAD. UM, KIMBERLY HORNE REQUESTS APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY PLAN CONSISTING OF 61 SINGLE FAMILY LOTS ON 102.808 ACRES. THE PLAN INCLUDES OPEN SPACE TRACKS WITH UNIT EASEMENTS FOR TREE PRESERVATION, AS WELL AS A CLUSTER BOX UNIT WITHIN AN OPEN SPACE TRACK WITH DESIGNATED PARKING SPACES. THE PROPOSED STREET NETWORK INCLUDES EXTENSIONS OF SUNSET ROAD TO THE NORTH AND EAST SWEETWATER DRIVE AND BEACH GROVE ROAD. LIBERTY CHURCHES PROPOSED TO BE IMPROVED SIDEWALKS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ROAD. SUNSET ROAD, SWEETWATER DRIVE AND BEACH GROVE ROAD ARE CURRENTLY TEMPORARY AT ENDS. THE SUNSET ROAD EXTENSION AND THE BEACH ROAD EXTENSION TO LIBERTY CHURCH ROAD ARE IDENTIFIED IN THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLAN AS CONNECTING. UM, WE HAVE ONE CONDITION OF APPROVAL PROVIDE PEDESTRIAN CROSSING SIGNS PER M-U-T-C-D FOR THE EASTBOUND AND WESTBOUND LIBERTY CHURCH ROAD APPROACHES AT SWEETWATER DRIVE AND BEACH CREEK OR BEACH GROVE ROAD. OKAY. SO, UM, I'LL ZOOM IN HERE REALLY QUICK. SO WE'VE GOT LIBERTY CHURCH ROAD RIGHT HERE THAT'S GOING TO BE IMPROVED BY SIDEWALKS. WE'VE GOT BEACH GROVE ROAD RIGHT HERE, WHICH IS A TEMPORARY DEAD END TO CONNECT ALL THE WAY UP TO SUITE WATER. IS THAT RIGHT? SWEET WATER. SWEET WATER. YEAH. AND THEN WE'VE GOT SUNSET CONNECTING ALL THE WAY DOWN HERE TO SUNSET. AGAIN, THIS CONNECTION HERE AND THIS CONNECTION HERE HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED IN OUR MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLAN AS, UH, PROPOSED CONNECTIONS AND THE PROPERTY ZONED R TWO. SO IT'S NOT A REZONING. YES. AND THE, SO THE LOTS ARE ONE ACRE YEP. EACH AND THEN THERE'S GONNA BE IT'S CUT OFF. THOSE ARE JUST SUED AFTER. YEAH, SO THESE ARE LOT LINES, BUT THERE'S UM, THERE'S 61 LOTS ON A HUNDRED ACRES. THERE'S GOTTA BE QUITE A BIT OF LAND. SO THERE ARE, UH, IT JUST TOPOGRAPHY AND A FACTOR. AND THEN THERE ARE A COUPLE OF STREAMS. UM, AND THEN OBVIOUSLY THEY HAVE TO HAVE DETENTION WITH OPEN SPACE, SO THAT'S GONNA TAKE AWAY USABLE LAW AREAS. I CAN'T SEE ANY MAJOR AMENITIES. LIKE THERE'S NO POOL OR CLUBHOUSE OR ANYTHING? NO, THERE'S NO AMENITIES PROPOSED. THEY HAVE TO HAVE A CLUSTER BOX FOR MAILBOX. YEAH. SO IT IS IN THIS AREA, UM, OVER HERE. SO THEY'RE, THEY HAVE CREATED WITHIN THEIR OPEN SPACE, UH, A MAILBOX AREA WITH PARKING FOR THOSE UNITS. AND THEY DO HAVE APPROVAL FROM THE POST OFFICE FOR HAVING ONE LOCATION FOR 61 LOTS. IS THAT A LITTLE UNUSUAL TO HAVE THAT MANY? OR IS THAT ONE AREA FOR THAT MANY? THAT'S WHAT WE'RE SEEING. UM, AND THAT'S, I MEAN, WE REQUIRE THAT THE POST OFFICE APPROVES THEIR PLANS AND SO THAT'S, YEAH, I MEAN THEY ONLY HAVE TO GO TO ONE ONE LOCATION. SO IS THAT STILL, THAT'S JUST A FEDERAL LAW, RIGHT? YEAH. IT'S NOT GOING ANYWHERE. I DON'T THINK SO. IT IS IN INTO EFFECT 10 YEARS OR SO SINCE 20 20, 20 16. AND WE'VE REALLY STARTED, I MEAN THEY'VE, WHAT'S THAT? YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT? SWITCHED OVER ALL NEW NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE A CENTRALIZED, UM, MAIL COLLECTION AREA, HAVE YOUR OWN MAILBOX, AND THEN IN LIEU OF THE OBVIOUSLY ADDRESS MAIL MAILBOXES FOR INDIVIDUAL HOUSES, THEY HAVE TO HAVE A POST THAT HAS THEIR ADDRESS FOR OBVIOUSLY IDENTIFYING THE HOME AND HELPING FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES. UM, CAN I SAY SOMETHING PLEASE? CHEAP, MIKE? YES. UM, IS SOMEONE WITH [00:30:01] THE, UH, CONSULTANT OR THE APPLICANT HERE TODAY? DID ANYONE WITH HERE WITH THE APPLICANT KNOW? I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T BELIEVE YOU'RE NOT WELL, YEAH, I JUST WANNA SEE, SAY THIS, I, YOU KNOW, THESE THINGS LIKE THIS, IT'S A HUGE DEVELOPMENT. IT'S BEEN LYING THERE DORMANT FOR SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME, I SUPPOSE AND, UH, YOU KNOW, YOU'LL GET TO SEE THIS A LITTLE BIT AND THEN WE'LL VOTE ON IT. BUT ALL OF OUR PEOPLE HERE, UH, ESPECIALLY ENGINEERING AND PLANNING HAVE DONE SO MUCH WORK ON THIS. TODD WENT, DID THIS START ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO? YEAH, AT LEAST. YEAH, AT LEAST. AND WE, UH, DISCUSSED AND, UH, I I I WOULD SAY DEBATED A BIT ABOUT WHICH CONNECTIONS WERE REQUIRED AND HOW THE LOTS WERE TO BE CONFIGURED. AND, UM, I JUST WANNA SAY IT MAY NOT BE PERFECT AND I HOPE THAT, BUT IT IS A, IT'S AS PERFECT AS WE COULD MAKE IT. UH, LIKE ALLISON SAID, THERE'S A HUGE HURDLE HERE REGARDING TOPOGRAPHY, STREAM BUFFERS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. BUT I JUST WANTED TO SAY ONCE AGAIN, AS I'VE SAID IN THE PAST, UH, ON THE FUTURE DOLLARS LIKE THIS, WHEN THE DEVELOPERS AND I, I, I CAN'T REMEMBER IF WE HAVE ONE OR TWO ON THIS ONE, BUT ANYWAY, WHEN THEY APPROACHED US WITH THIS, IT'S, IT'S A, UH, IT'S A HUGE BACK AND FORTH. AND IN THIS CASE, UH, PAW AND THE DEVELOPER ATTEMPTED TO DO EVERYTHING THEY COULD TO REMAIN COMPLIANT WITH OUR CODES AND WHAT WE REQUIRED. AND WE, AS THE CITY OF BRENTWOOD APPRECIATE THAT. AND I JUST APPRECIATE THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT MY TEAM AND PLANNING, UH, DID ON THIS PROJECT. I HOPE YOU GUYS CAN REVIEW THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE MONDAY NIGHT'S MEETING. AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT IT, CERTAINLY ASK THEM. BUT I JUST WANNA LET YOU KNOW THIS, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE SEEING THIS NOW WITH A LOT OF BACKGROUND WORK COMES TO THIS. KEN BRINGS THIS, KEN BRINGS THIS UP REGULARLY AT COMMISSION MEETINGS, AND I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT HE GIVES CREDIT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION BECAUSE OF ALL WORK THAT THEY PUT, IF YOU GUYS PUT INTO THESE TYPES OF PROJECTS BEFORE THEY WOULD COME TO A CITY COMMISSION. I JUST WANNA LET YOU KNOW THAT I APPRECIATE, I WANT YOU TO KNOW ALL THE WORK THAT WAS DONE ON THIS AND THAT I ALSO APPRECIATE OUR TEAMS AND THE DEVELOPERS COOPERATION ON THIS. THANK YOU, DEREK. I APPRECIATE YOU SAYING THAT. UM, BUT I DO HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT TRAFFIC. ABSOLUTELY. I, I ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT TRAFFIC ON EVERY QUESTIONS YOU'D LIKE HERE, THAT WAY WE CAN GET THEM ADDRESS BEFORE MONDAY NIGHT. BUT IF YOU DO, EVERY ONE OF THESE DEVELOPMENT GOES IN. I SEEM TO ASK THE QUESTION, HAS A TRAFFIC STUDY BEEN DONE? AND THE ANSWER IS ALWAYS, OH YES IT HAS. AND YET, LOOK WHAT WE HAVE ON CONCORD ROAD ON WILSON PIKE, ON EDMONDSON PIKE, ON OLD SMYRNA ROAD. RIGHT? LOOK AT ALL THE DIFFERENT TRAFFIC CONGESTION THAT NONETHELESS RESULTS AFTER TRAFFIC STUDIES BEING DONE ON EACH OF THESE INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENTS AS ONE-OFFS. MAYBE THEY MAKE SENSE, BUT WE HAVEN'T EXECUTED. AND THIS IS NOT DIRECTED AT YOU. I'M LOOKING BECAUSE YOU STARTED NO, I KNOW. CONVERSATION . WE HAVEN'T, WE HAVEN'T EXECUTED ON THE MAJOR THOROUGH PRAYER PLAN OF 2020 AND SOME OF THE SAME ROADS ARE IN THE 2030 PLAN. AND YET WE CONTINUE TO ADD NEIGHBORHOOD AFTER NEIGHBORHOOD ON TOP OF EXPLOSIVE GROWTH IN FRANKLIN AND NOLANSVILLE, WHICH THEN PUTS ADDITIONAL BURDEN ON OUR ROADWAYS. WHEN ARE WE GONNA STOP AND SAY WE NEED MORE ATTENTION PAID TO THE MAJOR ARTERIES AND THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLAN BEFORE WE START ADDING ADDITIONAL NEIGHBORHOODS? SO, RICK, DON'T I'M SORRY. ARE YOU DOING NO. OKAY. , SORRY. I'M LITTLE EXCITED ABOUT THIS ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. IT'S ADDED TO IT TO SO MANY THINGS THAT WE CONTINUE TO APPROVE. WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME AS A PLANNING COMMISSION APPROVING BRICK PAINTING AND SIGNAGE. WE DON'T SPEND A LOT OF TIME AS A PLANNING COMMISSION TALKING ABOUT MAJOR IMPACTS ON RESIDENTS RELATED TO TRAFFIC AS ONE EXAMPLE. AND I'M WONDERING WHEN WE'RE GONNA DO THAT. UM, OLD SMYRNA ROAD, I GUESS IS GONNA BE WIDENED. WILSON PIKE HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT BEING WIDENED FOREVER. THERE'S SUPPOSED TO BE A NEW, UM, UH, INTERCHANGE AT I 65 THAT'S BEEN IN THE 2020 AND 2030 PLANS. THERE ARE A LOT OF MAJOR INFRASTRUCTURE CHANGES THAT HAVE BEEN PLANNED BUT AREN'T EXECUTED. AND YET WE CONTINUE TO ADD MORE TRAFFIC ONTO ALREADY OVERCROWDED ROADWAYS. SO I WOULD LOVE TO SEE US AT SOME POINT IN TIME SAY, LET'S EXECUTE THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE CHANGES AND THEN CONSIDER MORE TRAFFIC ON THESE ROADS THAT ARE ALREADY OVERBURDENED ON SUNSET ROAD. HERE'S ONE EXAMPLE. IF YOU'VE TRAVELED UP SUNSET ROAD TO CONCORD IN THE MORNING AND AT NIGHT, IT'S ABSOLUTELY JAM PACKED AND PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR ANY WAY POSSIBLE TO GET OFF OF CONCORD ROAD [00:35:01] GOING WEST SUNSET ROAD NOW WILL BECOME A RACEWAY NORTH FROM CONCORD ROAD UP TO WHERE IT STOPS. AND NOW DOWN THROUGH THIS CONNECTOR TO SWEETWATER, UH, LIBERTY CHURCH, IF YOU'VE EVER WALKED ALONG THAT ROADWAY ON LIMITED SIDEWALKS THAT ARE AVAILABLE, IT'S A 25 MILE POST POSTED ZONE. I'M NOT KIDDING YOU. IT IS 50 TO 60 MILES AN HOUR THROUGH THERE ALREADY. YOU ADD A CONNECTOR FROM WHERE SUNSET ENDS DOWN THROUGH ALL THAT AREA, PARALLEL LIBERTY CHURCH DOWN TO WHAT'S CALLED, UH, UH, I DON'T REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE STREET NOW. BUT ANYWAY, NOW YOU'RE GONNA HAVE ALL THESE PEOPLE TRYING TO ESCAPE CONCORD ROAD WEST AND FINDING OTHER ROADS THERE. YOU'RE GONNA HAVE THE SAME IMPACT ON BEACH GROVE ROAD BECAUSE NOW IT'LL CONNECT THROUGH TO LIBERTY CHURCH AND YOU'RE GONNA HAVE PEOPLE FLOODING THROUGH THERE TO GET OFF OF CONCORD ROAD. CONCORD ROAD'S NOT JUST A PROBLEM FROM, UH, SIX O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING UNTIL EIGHT O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING. IT'S A PROBLEM ALMOST NONSTOP RIGHT NOW. TRY DRIVING CONCORD ROAD ON SATURDAY. TRY IT ON SUNDAY MORNING. IT'S ABSOLUTELY PACKED. AND WE CONTINUE TO ADD ONE NEIGHBORHOOD AFTER THE NEXT THAT ADDS A LOT OF TRAFFIC TO THE ALREADY OVERBURDENED ROADS. SO I GUESS MY, MY ASK IS CAN WE GET THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARES CHANGED BEFORE WE START ADDING MORE NEIGHBORHOODS, NAMELY WILSON PIKE, JONES PARKWAY, UP TO OLD SMYRNA FIX OLD SMYRNA, BECAUSE ALL THOSE PEOPLE ARE COMING THIS WAY, RIGHT? THEY'RE ALL HEADING TOWARD CENTER OF B BRENTWOOD. YOU CAN SEE IT AND ARE GOING TO PUBLIC OR PRIVATE SCHOOLS, AND MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS. SO IT'S ADDING SIGNIFICANT CAR TRAFFIC TO THESE ROADS. I WOULD ALSO ASK THAT WE CONSIDER TRAFFIC CALMING MEASURES OF SOME SORT. 'CAUSE SUNSET'S GONNA BE A DISASTER. SO NOW I'M SORRY. CAN, CAN I ADDRESS SOME OF THAT , PLEASE? YEAH. SO, UH, RICK, YOU'VE OPENED UP A HUGE CAN OF HANGRY WORMS THERE. I PROBABLY LIKE A FIVE GALLON BUCKET OF, OF, OF, OF WORMS WITH THIS CONVERSATION. AND, UH, WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THIS ONE DEVELOPMENT, UH, IT IT IS, I CAN SAY THIS, WE, AS ALLISON MENTIONED, WE ARE ADHERING TO THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLAN WITH THE CONNECTIONS THAT WE REQUIRED FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT. SO THAT'S NUMBER ONE. UH, OTHER THAN SWEETWATER WASN'T A MAJOR THOROUGHFARE CONNECTOR IN THE PLAN. SO THAT'S BEEN ADDED. SO AS I SAID, WE ARE ADHERING TO THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLAN WITH WHAT WE'VE REQUIRED. YEAH. AND THAT ONE WAS ADDED AND WE FELT IT WAS A GOOD CONNECTION. OKAY. UH, YOU MENTIONED THE FACT THAT SOME OF THE ROADS WERE OVERBURDENED. UH, THESE CONNECTIONS WILL HELP IN, IN, IN SOME WAYS WITH THAT. WE'VE ALREADY HAD ONE OR TWO. I KNOW OF ONE RESIDENT THAT CALLED ME DIRECTLY AND ASK WHEN IS SUNSET GONNA BE CONNECTED? AND HE WAS HAPPY TO HEAR ABOUT THIS. SO SOME PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE UPSET ABOUT IT, SOME PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE HAPPY ABOUT IT. MUCH LIKE ARCADIA SUBDIVISION THAT WE JUST DISCUSSED, THAT'S CONNECTING INTO RAINTREE A TRIP YEAH. SOUTH FROM RAINTREE. THOSE PEOPLE ARE GONNA SAY 15 MINUTES. SOME PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE HAPPY ABOUT THAT. SOME PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE UPSET ABOUT THAT. BUT AGAIN, THESE ARE CONNECTIONS THAT ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLAN OR, UH, HAVE BEEN PLANNED BY PLANNING BECAUSE THESE TEMPORARY DEAD ENDS THAT WERE, UH, INCORPORATED INTO DEVELOPMENT LONG AGO. AND, UH, WE'RE JUST, WE'RE, UH, REMAINING WITH THAT INTENT. UH, THEN THE THIRD THING YOU ASK, HAS THERE BEEN A TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN DONE? YES. KEVIN COULD TELL YOU A LOT OF DETAIL ABOUT THAT TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN. WE'RE NOT GONNA DO THAT HERE TODAY, BUT WE COULD GET YOU A COPY OF THAT REPORT. IT MAY BE IN THE PACKET. I'M NOT SURE I CAN PUT IN THE PACKET. OKAY. BUT WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT'S INCLUDED IN THE PACKET. UM, SO WHAT WE ARE ADDRESSING, RICK, ARE THINGS THAT COME UP NOW, JUST TELL EVERY ONE OF THE ROADWAYS THAT YOU MENTIONED WERE A RESULT OF THINGS THAT WERE DONE YEARS AGO. AND MAYBE, MAYBE THERE WAS A BIT OF OVERSIGHT IN SOME OF THOSE DEVELOPMENTS. MAYBE NOT. BUT MOST OF IT COMES BACK, RICK, TO THIS. UH, AND I, I THINK YOU REALIZE THIS, SO I DON'T MEAN TO BE CONDESCENDING, BUT BRICKWOOD HAS NEVER ATTEMPTED TO WIDEN THEIR ROWS TO ACCOMMODATE CAPACITY. IT JUST HAS NOT HAPPENED IN THE PAST AND IT ISN'T HAPPENING NOW. WE ARE CURRENTLY IMPROVING SEVERAL ROADS, RAGSDALE SPLIT LOG SUNSET. IN FACT, WE'RE NOT WIDENING THOSE ROADS TO FIVE LANE ROADS BECAUSE THAT'S NOT WHAT THE CITY ADMINISTRATION, THE [00:40:01] RESIDENTS, IT'S NOT THE FEEL OF BRENTWOOD THAT, THAT PEOPLE HERE AT RESIDENTS THAT HAVE LIVED HERE FOREVER, THAT'S NOT WHAT THEY WANT. THEY WANT THE ROADS TO BE SAFER, BUT THEY DON'T WANT HUGE WIDE ROADS THAT TAKES UP PROPERTY AND UH, AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SO, AND, AND THEN BACK TO ONE LAST POINT. SOME OF THESE ROADS ARE STATE ROADS. I WISH THE STATE WOULD COME IN AND FIX WILSON PIKE RIGHT NOW. THAT WOULD BE A HUGE BENEFIT TO, TO THOUSANDS OF RESIDENTS OF BRENTWOOD. BUT WE'VE TRIED THAT, WE'VE TRIED TO GET GRANTS AND THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN. IT'S COST PROHIBITED FOR US TO DO THAT AS A CITY BECAUSE OF MANY FACTORS. THE MAIN LINE, OF COURSE, IS THE COST OF RIGHT OF WAY ASSOCIATED WITH THAT. WE WOULD HAVE THE CITY WOULD'VE TO PURCHASE THAT. THAT'S COST PROHIBITIVE. BUT ANYWAY, A LOT OF THOUGHT WENT INTO THIS. THERE WAS A TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN. WE'RE TRYING TO ADDRESS THINGS AS THEY COME IN. NOW WE'RE LOOKING TOWARD THE FUTURE CLOUD, DOING A LOT OF WORK ON THE 2040 VISION PLAN. THERE'S A MAJOR THOROUGH FARE PLAN UPDATE IN THAT, IN THAT, UH, IN THAT VISION PLAN AND ALSO A TRAFFIC DEMAND MODEL THAT'S BEING CRAFTED ALONG WITH THAT. I HOPE THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION A BIT AND IT DOESN'T SOLVE ANYTHING REALLY. I'M SORRY. NO, IT DOESN'T. I I, I REALLY APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS. UM, WHAT IT DOESN'T SOLVE IS IT DOESN'T HELP TAKE THE BURDEN OFF THE, WHAT WE ARE ALREADY KNOWN TO BE MAJOR CROWDED THOROUGHFARES. WILSON PIKE IS A DISASTER. YEAH. OLD SMYRNA ROAD IS HORRIBLE. AND YOU ALREADY SEE, BECAUSE EDMONDSON PIKE, AND I REALIZE THAT'S OUTSIDE OF REDMOND, BRENTWOOD WHERE MOST OF THE TRAFFIC JAM OCCURS. YEAH. BUT YOU ALREADY SEE PEOPLE HEADING NORTH ON EDMONDSON PIKE CUTTING ACROSS OLD SMYRNA ROAD TO AVOID THE REST OF THAT CONGESTION AT OLD HICKORY ORLAND CUTTING ACROSS OLD SMYRNA AND NOW RUNNING THROUGH ANNANDALE. SO YOU CAN IMAGINE THAT MANY MORE VEHICLES RUNNING THROUGH ANNANDALE TO ESCAPE CONCORD ROAD TO ESCAPE, CLOVERTON ROAD TO ESCAPE OLD HICKORY ROAD. AND IT'S NOT JUST THIS ONE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S, UH, ROSEBROOK. IT'S ALL THE OTHER NEIGHBORHOODS THAT ARE ALL OUT IN THE WESTERN, EXCUSE ME, EASTERN PART OF CONCORD THAT IS ADDING BURDEN TO THESE THOROUGHFARES. AND WE'RE NOT TAKING CARE OF THE THOROUGHFARES THAT HAVE BEEN IN THE PLANS FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS. WHAT CAN WE DO TO ACCELERATE THOSE? SO IF I COULD ADDRESS THAT JUST A BIT. AGAIN, I'M NOT GONNA, I'M NOT GONNA PROVIDE A SOLUTION TO YOUR, UH, YOUR QUESTIONS, BUT, UM, LET'S SEE. UM, I HAVE TWO POINTS, UH, OH MY GOSH. AND I FORGET ONE OF THEM. UH, BUT ANYWAY, UH, SO, UM, YES, UH, CONNECTIONS, CONNECTIONS AND COMMISSION. UH, MANY OF THE TRAFFIC PROBLEMS, THIS IS MY OPINION, SOME OF THE TRAFFIC PROBLEMS THAT EXIST IN BRENTWOOD ARE BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT ONCE AGAIN, BRENTWOOD LIKES NEIGHBORHOODS THAT AREN'T CONNECTED. THEY LIKE THE FACT THAT YOU GO INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND YOU GO DOWN SOME STREETS, THERE'S SOME INTERCONNECTIVITY AND THEY'RE CUL-DE-SACS IN BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T WANT CUT THROUGH TRAFFIC. OKAY. SO THAT, THAT FUNNELS ALL OF THE MAJOR TRAFFIC ONTO THE ARTERIALS, WHICH THAT'S WHAT'S SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN. BUT AGAIN, IT IS A, UM, IT'S A RESULT OF THE DEVELOPMENT ATMOSPHERE THAT BRENTWOOD HAS. SO THE OTHER THING THAT I WANT TO DISCUSS IS, UH, THE FACT THAT YOU'VE MENTIONED THAT WE'RE, WE'RE BRINGING ALL THIS DEVELOPMENT IN AND IT'S OVERBURDENING THE ROADS. UH, ALL THESE DEVELOPMENTS ARE BEING EXAMINED FOR ADHERENCE TO THE CURRENT ZONING, CURRENT CODES. TRAFFIC STUDIES ARE REQUIRED. WE AS CITY STAFF ARE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO MAKE THESE DEVELOPMENTS AS AMENABLE AS POSSIBLE TO EVERYONE TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE CONNECTED WHEN WE CAN, NOT CONNECTED WHEN IT'S, UH, SEEN TO BE BEST. BUT IF, IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING, AND, AND AGAIN, I'M, I'M QUITE SURE YOU KNOW THIS, BUT IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING THAT QUAILS DEVELOPMENT IN THE CITY OF MEMPHIS UNTIL MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLANS ARE LOOKED AT, ARTERIALS ARE EXPANDED, FUNDING IS IN PLACE TO DO THESE. AND THAT'S NOT SOMETHING WE COULD DO THAT WOULD BE A COMMISSION ACTION THAT WOULD, UH, REQUIRE SOME SORT OF MORATORY AMONG DEVELOPMENT. AND SO UNTIL SOME OF THESE ISSUES THAT YOU'RE CONCERNED ABOUT. YEAH, I, YEAH, I'M NOT SAYING THE CITY AND YOU GUYS SPECIFICALLY HAVE RESPONSIBILITY FOR CORRECTING ALL OF OUR TRAFFIC PROBLEMS. RIGHT. WHAT I AM SAYING, AND I I GUESS WE NEVER TALK ABOUT THIS AS A PLANNING COMMISSION. WHAT, WHAT ACTIONS DO NEED TO BE TAKEN TO, TO GET THE THOROUGHFARE, UH, WIDENING PROJECTS, EXPANSION PROJECTS, EXTENSION PROJECTS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN IDENTIFIED AS PROBLEMS IN THE CITY. WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO TO GET THOSE TAKEN CARE OF WHILE [00:45:01] WE CONTINUE TO ADD NEIGHBORHOODS? IS THAT FALL A LONG TIME AGO? I FEEL LIKE THAT FALLS ON THE CITY COMMISSIONS 'CAUSE THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. CORRECT. NOT OUR RESPONSIBILITY. SO WHAT DO WE AS A PLANNING COMMISSION SAY TO THE COMMISSION THAT SAYS, HEY, WE, WE ENCOURAGE EXECUTION OF THE PLAN. I THINK, I THINK PART OF THAT WILL COME OUT IN THE 2040 PLAN AS WE MOVE FORWARD. I'VE SEEN A LITTLE BIT OF THAT, BUT I MEAN, HERE'S THE OTHER PART BECAUSE I JUST READ AN ARTICLE THE OTHER DAY AND IT TALKED ABOUT COMMUNITIES HAVE TO TALK TO THEIR SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES BECAUSE SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES IMPACT US. YES. THE EXPANSION THAT'S GOING ON DOWN IN COOL SPRINGS MALL RIGHT NOW, YOU KNOW, WHERE THEY'RE TAKING OUT ALL THAT AREA AND THEY'RE GONNA PUT IN ALL THOSE APARTMENTS THAT'S GONNA MAKE MOORES LANE IN FRANKLIN ROAD EVEN WORSE. AND IT'S ALREADY BAD. SO YOU ARE, BUT YOU'RE RIGHT. WE HAVE SUCH A PROBLEM ALREADY THEN IT'S EXACERBATED, EXACERBATED BY THE FRANKLIN PUSH THAT'S GOING ON. WE'RE OLD SMYRNA ROAD WILL BE BETTER WHEN WE GET THAT DONE. WE'RE STILL A WAYS OFF FROM THAT. IT'S STILL IN THE PLANNING PHASE. I MEAN, WE FUNDED IT AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. BUT WILSON PIKE IS SOMETHING AND WE, WE HAVE PUSHED AND PUSHED AND IT GETS WHERE IT'S MOVING UP ON THE TDOT LIST. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TDOT LIST COMES OUT AND WE'RE BACK DOWN AND THESE GUYS SEE THAT. AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DO TO GET TDOT UP THERE. I THINK MAYBE WE NEED SOME STATE HELP ON THAT. YOU KNOW, WE, IT, IT DEFINITELY NEEDS FIXING, YOU KNOW? YEAH. 'CAUSE YOU, YOU LOOK AT NOLANSVILLE AND THE HOLT ROAD NOLANSVILLE ROAD INTERSECTION, THEY'RE PUTTING MASSIVE NUMBERS OF APARTMENTS IN THERE AND THAT'S GONNA PUT ADDITIONAL BURDEN ON HOLT EDMONDSON PIKE, OLD SMYRNA. I THINK I'M RIGHT ON THIS TOO. I'M NOT, BUT, AND YOU'LL KNOW, BUT WHEN CONCORD WAS WIDENED, WE BOUGHT ENOUGH LAND THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN, COULD HAVE BEEN TWO EACH ONE. IT WOULD'VE BEEN MORE LANES AND THE STATE SIDE WERE NO WANT IT THAT WAY. SO THAT'S, THAT WAS A MISTAKE. I MEAN I THINK IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY EVERY TIME WE DO A NEIGHBORHOOD TO JUST BRING UP THE POINT OF TRAFFIC AND TO PUT A LITTLE BIT OF PRESSURE ON THE CITY COMMISSION TO STATE, HEY BY THE WAY, LET'S MAKE SURE WE'RE STILL CONSIDERING TRAFFIC IN ALL FUTURE PLANS. AND THEN THE CITY COMMISSION'S ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR PUTTING PRESSURE ON TDOT AND OTHERS TO UH, IMPLEMENT THE THOROUGHFARE PLAN AND ALL THAT. BUT AS PLANNING COMMISSIONERS, YEAH, WE DON'T REALLY HAVE A LOT OF SAY IN MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLANS OTHER THAN WORKING WITH THE 2040 PLAN WORKING WITH OTHERS. BUT THEY DON'T. AND I THINK DEREK MADE THE MOST APPROPRIATE POINT FOR THE PLANNING COMMISSION, WHICH IS, THIS IS ALLOWABLE BY RIGHT. IT'S R TWO ZONING. THE ONLY THING I COULD SEE, AND I'M NOT ADVOCATING FOR IT, BUT OTHER JURISDICTIONS COULD PUT, HAVE PUT MORATORIUMS ON RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT THAT ARE JUST GENERALLY TEMPORARY. AND THAT'S THE ONLY THING I COULD SEE DOING TO ALLOW THE THOROUGH FAIR PLANS TO CATCH UP TO THE DEVELOPMENT PACE. I'M NOT ADVOCATING FOR THAT, BUT THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THE COMMISSION COULD DO. YEAH. IT IS A UNIQUE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT THIS IS ONE THAT ACTUALLY DOES FORWARD THE THOROUGHFARE PLAN. YOU KNOW, WE DO HAVE A LOT OF 'EM THAT ARE JUST KIND OF AN OFF, JUST GONNA ADD MORE TRAFFIC. I AGREE THAT THIS WAS ACTUALLY A GOOD ONE. IT DOES THE THOROUGHFARE CONNECTION, SUNSET AND BEACH GROVE ROAD. IT DOES DO THAT. AND THAT'S BEEN IN THE PLAN FOR A LOT OF YEARS. WHAT IT DOESN'T DO IS SAY BY PRIORITY OLD SMYRNA AND WILSON PIKE, UH, CHANGES SHOULD BE MADE EARLIER THAN LATER. JONES ROAD PARKWAY CHANGE SHOULD BE MADE EARLIER THAN LATER. THE NEW INTERSECTION AT I 65 AND THE ROAD OVER I 65 TO FRANKLIN ROAD, WHICH TIME'S PARKWAY IS YOUR JONES JUDGE. PARKWAY'S NOT HAPPENING JONES. IT'S IN THE THOROUGHFARE PLAN. IT'S, IT DIED WHEN THEY BUILT THE UHLIN HILL PARK THAT WAS DEAD. OKAY. YEAH. THEY CAN'T DO THAT. THEY WERE PLANNING TO PUT A ROUNDABOUT THERE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE OLD SMYRNA EXPANSION. THE ORIGINAL THOROUGHFARE PLAN WAS TO EXTEND JONES PARKWAY FROM OLD HICKORY BOULEVARD ALL THE WAY TO CONCORD. BUT WHEN THEY BUILT WINDY HILL PARK, IT MADE IT WHERE THAT WASN'T POSSIBLE. THERE'S ALSO, IN THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLAN, A BRIDGE OVER 65 THAT GOES ALL THE WAY OVER TO FRANKLIN ROAD. THAT'S IN THE THOROUGHFARE PLAN THAT'S GONNA SURVIVE IN THE 2040 PLAN. BUT THESE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE PLANS AREN'T GETTING EXECUTED. MY POINT IS, WHY AREN'T THEY GETTING DONE FIRST BEFORE WE PUT MORE BURDEN ON ALREADY OVERBURDENED ROADS? I FEEL BADLY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE ALONG SUNSET ROAD, ON BEACH GROVE ROAD AND DOWN ON SWEETWATER BECAUSE THEY'VE HAD RELATIVELY QUIET STREETS AND NOW THEY'RE, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TRAFFIC FLYING BACK. WELL, I THINK THAT'S WHY YOU ALSO SEE THINGS GOING ON IN METAL LAKE LIKE CRAZY. SOME PEOPLE DON'T WANNA LIVE WAY DOWN THAT WAY. YOU KNOW, SERIOUSLY, I THINK THAT'S PUSHES THE VALUE OF METAL LAKE REDOS BECAUSE YOU AVOID SOME OF THAT. I THINK YOU MADE GOOD POINTS. I JUST, I THINK IT'S, IT'S AMAZING HOW MUCH IT'S CONTROLLED BY WHICH THAT MIGHT BE A GOOD EDUCATIONAL, [00:50:01] WE NEED SOME MORE EDUCATIONAL HOURS. IS THERE ANY WAY WE CAN TIE SOME OF THIS INTO 2040 AND NAP PLANS AND STUFF TO HAVE A SESSION AFTER? OR JUST, I, I MEAN, I THINK JUST SHOWING, UH, A GENERAL OVERLAY OF WHAT WE CAN CONTROL VERSUS WHAT WE HAVE TO LOBBY THE STATE FOR. BECAUSE I MEAN THAT'S, I MEAN THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE COULD RECOMMEND IS RECOMMEND THAT WE, YOU KNOW, PUT IN THE BUDGET LOBBYING DOLLARS FOR TDOT OR, OR WHATEVER, WHATEVER THAT PROCESS IS. I MEAN, WE CAN, WE CAN MAKE THOSE RECOMMENDATIONS. I JUST, I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T KNOW WHICH ONES WE, WE AS THE CITY CONTROL VERSUS WHICH ONES THE STATE CONTROLS. THERE WAS A PLAN TOO, WITH TDOT AT ONE POINT. YOU COULD, YOU COULD SUB, YOU COULD PAY SOME MONEY TO GET MOVED UP ON THE LIST. WELL, IT'S, IT'S THERE FOR LOCAL PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS IN ORDER TO INITIATE A PROJECT, UH, A MUNICIPALITY, CITY COUNTY ENTITY HAS TO UH, UM, PUT 20% OF THAT FUNDING INTO THE HAT YOU CAN, UH, BEEN TOLD. AND, AND I THINK THIS IS REASONABLE, THAT IF YOU PUT MORE, YOUR PROJECT GETS MORE, YOU KNOW, IT KIND OF BUMPS IT UP. THE YEAH. IF WE GO IN AND WE SAY WE'RE GONNA DO 80% OF THE PROJECT AND THE STATE ONLY DO 20, THEN YES, THEY'RE GONNA LIKE, HEY, THIS IS A NICE SHINY OBJECT OVER THE, HERE, LET'S, LET'S DO THAT. YEAH. THE ME AFTER PART, PARTWAY PROJECT, A BETTER WAY TO SAY THAT WIDENING THAT FRANKLIN IS LOOKING AT DOING RIGHT NOW, THEY'VE PUT IN A LOT OF FUNDS TO SUPPORT THAT AND MOVED IT UP THE LIST. BUT THEY ALSO HAD A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE YEAH. TO AFFORD THAT. SO I MEAN THERE'S, THERE'S THE YIN AND YNK. SO YEAH. THAT'S SOME, SOME THESE RICK YOU AN INTERCHANGE OR OVERPASS ON I 65 HAS BEEN MENTIONED A COUPLE OF TIMES. UH, MANY OF YOU PROBABLY KNOW THAT WITHIN THE STATE'S TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM PLAN FOR AT LEAST ONE DECADE, I THINK PROBABLY TWO, THERE HAVE BEEN INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENTS TO BOTH MOORE'S LANE, UH, AND A NEW INTERCHANGE PROPOSED BETWEEN CONCORD AND OLD HICKORY. MM-HMM . THE STATE CAME IN EARLIER THIS YEAR, WIPED THEIR, I'LL SAY THEY DIDN'T WIPE THEIR STEP, IT'S CALLED STEPS STATE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT OR INFRASTRUCTURE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT PLAN. BUT THEY DID ELIMINATE OUR PROJECTS FROM THAT. WHAT, WHAT I'LL SAY WITHOUT US EVEN KNOWING IT WAS ANNOUNCED AT THE GREATER NASHVILLE REGIONAL, WHAT'S IT CALLED? GREAT THE GM RC YET THAT, UM, THAT IT HAD BEEN DONE. SO WE, UH, ENGINEERING IMMEDIATELY WENT INTO ACTION TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED. AND IT WAS, UH, I FOUND OUT THROUGH SOME CONTACTS VERY HIGH UP IN TDOT THAT, UH, YES THOSE WERE DONE BECAUSE THEY DID LAND THERE FOREVER. NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. THE CITY, UH, YOU KNOW, AS JASON SAID, YOU KNOW, THE CITY'S NOT OFFERING ANY ADDITIONAL MATCH TO THAT. AND SO IT GOT WIPED. BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO WRAP THIS UP AS QUICKLY AS I CAN. SO I'VE BEEN TALKING WAY TOO MUCH TODAY WITH THIS NEW PANEL STUDY FOR THE I 65 CHOICE LANES TO LANES, WHATEVER YOU WANNA CALL IT. THEY ARE CONSIDERING BOTH OF THOSE ITEMS IN THAT CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT. SO WE, WE JUST HAVE TO KEEP LOBBYING FOR THAT AND SEE HOW IT GOES. WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHAT OTHER LOBBYING WE NEED TO DO TO TAKE CARE OF, YOU KNOW, OUR OWN CITY AND NOT JUST SAY WE'RE VICTIMS OF IT AND UNTIL THE STATE OR SOMEONE ELSE DOES SOMETHING, WE HAVE TO JUST LIVE WITH IT. I, I THINK WE NEED TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO HELP CONTROL THIS AND TAKE CARE OF OUR CITIZENS, FRANKLY. AND I, I WOULD ENCOURAGE SOME KIND OF CALMING TRAFFIC, CALMING MEASURES ALONG SUNSET AS A CONSIDERATION. UH, MAYBE SWEETWATER NEEDS IT AS WELL WHEN THIS, THIS THING IS DONE. OTHERWISE LET'S JUST HAVE BRENTWOOD POLICE SIT OUT THERE AND COLLECT ENORMOUS NUMBERS OF TAX DOLLARS OFF CITATIONS. 'CAUSE IT'S SUN SUNSET. MANY OF THESE WERE OTHER ARTERIALS AND WE DON'T HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF INSTALLING TRAFFIC CALMING OVER SPEED ON THINGS LIKE THAT, THAT ON THOSE COLLECTORS, WE HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC CALMING WE CAN DO ON THOSE, UM, WITH ARTERIALS. ALRIGHT. NOT TO MOVE OFF THAT CONVERSATION. WE, YOU HAVE TWO MORE THINGS WE NEED TO DISCUSS. UM, IF, IF THAT'S OKAY WITH EVERYBODY. YEP. I DON'T NEED TO CUT GOOD CONVERSATION SHORT, BUT WE DO NEED TO KEEP THE ITEMS AT HAND. MOVE IN. UM, OKAY. SO OUR [00:55:01] NEXT AND LAST REGULAR AGENDA ITEM IS A SITE PLAN FOR A MIRACLE FIELD, UM, LOCATED AT HAR HILLS CHURCH OF CHRIST. YOU GUYS HAVE PREVIOUSLY SEEN THIS AS WE DID A REZONING OF THE PROPERTY A FEW MONTHS AGO. UM, SO AGAIN, THIS IS FOR MIRACLE FIELDS. SORRY, I'M JUST GONNA TRY TO FIND, THERE WE GO. UM, LOCATED AT HARPE HILLS CHURCH OF CHRIST ON APRIL 27TH, 2026, THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS VOTED TO REZONE APPROXIMATELY 1.37 ACRES. SO THIS BACK PORTION, UM, IS CITY OF BRENTWOOD. THE FRONT PORTION IS WITHIN DAVIDSON COUNTY. SO THIS IS THE PORTION OF PROPERTY THAT WAS REZONED FROM AN R TWO ZONING TO AN SI ONE, WHICH IS A RELIGIOUS ZONING DISTRICT. THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN INCLUDES MIRACLE FIELD AND ASSOCIATED PARKING RESTROOMS, CONCESSIONS ON THE DAVIDSON COUNTY SIDE OF THE PROPERTY. SO MOST OF THE IMPROVEMENTS ARE GOING TO BE WITHIN DAVIDSON COUNTY. UM, AND UM, THERE'S THE STORM WATER PORTION IS GOING TO BE WITHIN, UH, BRENTWOOD. UM, A CHANGE FROM THE CONCEPT PLAN THAT WAS SEEN DURING THE REZONING IS THAT THERE ARE TWO EXISTING BALL FIELDS OVER ON THIS PARCEL OVER HERE. SO THIS IS THE PARCEL THAT WAS REZONED. THIS WE LEFT AS R TWO TO PROVIDE A BUFFER FOR THESE RESIDENTS OVER HERE. UH, THIS IS WHERE MIRACLE, THE MAJORITY OF MIRACLE FIELD WILL TAKE PLACE. AGAIN, THIS IS THE COUNTY LINE RIGHT HERE. SO THERE ARE TWO EXISTING BALL FIELDS, UM, THAT WERE ORIGINALLY PROPOSED TO BE REMOVED WITH THE CONCEPT PLAN THAT WAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REZONING. THAT CONSTANT PLAN WAS NON-BINDING AND WOULD HAVE TO COME OBVIOUSLY IN FRONT OF THE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL, WHICH IS WHAT YOU GUYS ARE SEEING RIGHT NOW WITH A SITE PLAN. AGAIN, THIS IS THE CONCEPT PLAN THAT WAS, UH, PREVIOUSLY SHOWN. YOU CAN SEE THAT THE MIRACLE FIELD WAS PUSHED A LITTLE BIT FARTHER INTO THE, THE BRENTWOOD PARCEL THAT WAS REZONED. AND I THINK THEY'VE GOTTEN RID OF SOME, SOME PARKING OVER HERE. SO THEY'VE MOVED EVERYTHING CLOSER SO THAT THEY COULD FIGURE OUT A WAY TO KEEP THE EXISTING FIELDS. SO OUR JURISDICTION IS ONLY OVER OUR AREA, CORRECT? CORRECT. SO WE ARE ALL WE'RE VOTING ON IS FOR THEM TO TAKE AWAY THEIR CURRENT BALL FIELDS, WHICH WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER. SO, NO. SO THIS PROPOSAL KEEPS, OH, THEY'RE KEEPING THEIR TWO THEY'RE KEEPING THE EXISTING, SO THE ORIGINAL CONCEPT PLAN WAS TO REMOVE THOSE. SO WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WILLIAMSON, THE BRENTWOOD PART OF THIS PLAN, LIKE TO ADD A FOOT OF A MIRACLE FIELD TO THE TOP OF THEIR HEART? 'CAUSE THEY CAN DO EVERYTHING NORTH IN DAVIDSON COUNTY WITH US. WE SAID NO, THAT COULD STILL ALL HAPPEN BECAUSE IT'S DAVIDSON COUNTY, CORRECT? YES AND NO. SO THE STORM ON OUR PORTION THAT IS TREATING ALL OF THIS IS IN BRENTWOOD. UM, LET ME PULL UP THE, THAT'S GONNA PULL TWO PERMITS IN BRENTWOOD. YEAH. THEY'RE GONNA PULL A GRADING PERMIT FOR THE DETENTION AND THEY'RE GONNA PULL A MISCELLANEOUS PERMIT FOR ONE OF THE BALL FIELDS EXISTING IS GETTING SMALLER BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO GET OUT OF THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER WITH SOME IMPROVEMENTS. SO LIKE THERE'S A SHED THAT'S GOTTA BE RELOCATED. THE DUGOUTS HAVE TO REMOVE THE ROOF. I'M JUST TRYING TO, UH, CONSIDER WHAT DEBATE WE WOULD HAVE. NOT MUCH, THE BRENTWOOD APPROVAL IS VERY, VERY LIMITED AND WE HAVE A CONDITION STATING THAT EVERYTHING ON THE METRO SIDE, THEY HAVE TO GET APPROVAL FROM METRO. SO ANY DEBATE WE WOULD BE HAVING WOULD MOST LIKELY BE OVER, WHETHER YOU'RE ALLOWED TO MAKE YOUR BALL FIELD SMALLER, GET RID OF A SHED, SHED ENCROACHING ON IMPACTS. WHAT OUR JURISDICTION IS, IS SHED NOT USEFULNESS OF WHETHER OR NOT A MIRACLE FIELD IS NEEDED OR IS NOT NEEDED KIND OF THING. RIGHT. WHICH IS WHAT THAT LAST DEBATE WE'RE STARTING TO TURN INTO. AND IT'S LIKE, HEY, THAT'S NOT A STORM WATER. BE APPROPRIATELY. YEAH. AND THAT'S MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT, IS THAT LOWER FIELD, UM, BECAUSE MY KIDS PLAY LOWER FIELD WHEN IT RAINS IS, I MEAN JUST IS A WASHOUT IT IS LOCATED IN FLOOD. YEAH. YEAH. THAT IS. OKAY. SO I MEAN THAT'S MY ONLY CONCERN IS ARE THEY HANDLING THE WATER FOR THE MIRACLE FIELD SO IT DOESN'T MAKE THAT YEAH, THAT'S STORMWATER [01:00:01] DEBATE I'M FINE WITH, IT'S JUST I DON'T WANT TO END UP WITH A 30 MINUTE MIRACLE FIELD DEBATE. THAT ISN'T A REAL DEBATE FOR US. YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT FROM, SORRY, DOESN'T MAKE SENSE FROM STORMWATER PERSPECTIVE. I MEAN, WE'VE MADE THEM DESIGN THIS TO OUR STORMWATER REGULATIONS, WHICH ARE A LITTLE MORE ROBUST THAN METRO'S. SO WE'RE ACTUALLY GETTING A LITTLE THAT'S GOOD. KNOW MORE ATTENTION IN THAT POND COMPARED TO WHAT METRO WOULD THEORETICALLY REQUIRE. YEAH. PERFECT. OKAY. IT, IT HAS BEEN, I MEAN IT, IT JUST, WHEN THE KIDS WERE DOWN THAT YOU COULD TELL AFTER ANY AMOUNT OF RAIN IT, IT WAS, YOU KNOW, BASICALLY NEEDED REPAIR. AND TO BRANDON'S POINT, I'M FINE WITH ANY STORMWATER DEBATE DISCUSSION. OKAY. I JUST DON'T WANT TO HAVE A BENEFITS POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE OF MIRACLE FIELD IN OUR MEETING AND GO BACK AND FORTH AND HAVE PEOPLE BEING VERY PASSIONATE FOR SOMETHING WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER. YEAH. SO, UM, GO AHEAD. SO BEFORE AND AFTER, WE'LL, I MEAN THE PLAN, THE, THE STORMWATER PLAN HERE IS THAT THERE WILL BE MORE RETENTION THAN PREVIOUSLY. SO WE MAY ACTUALLY SEE AN IMPROVEMENT ON, ON THE BACK, MAYBE THE FLOOD IS IN THIS CORNER OVER HERE AND SINCE THERE IS FLOOD, UM, AND THEY'RE PROPOSING TO, TO KEEP THE EXISTING FIELDS, THEY'RE, THEY CAN HAVE THE FENCE, THEY CAN HAVE THE DUGOUTS, THEY CAN SOLVE THE BLEACHERS, BUT THE DUE TO FLOOD REGULATIONS, WE'RE HAVING THEM REMOVE ANY ROOFS FOR THAT. SO BECAUSE IT'S, YOU KNOW, ANYTHING THAT GOES ON THE ROOF IS GONNA GO STRAIGHT OFF. UM, YEAH, I I I WILL SAY, YOU KNOW, DOWNSTREAM FOLKS ARE PROBABLY GONNA SEE A LITTLE, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT BETTER, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE WE'RE GONNA BE HOLDING THAT IN THAT DETENTION AREA AREA WITHIN THE A HUNDRED YEAR FLOODPLAIN. THAT'S ALL BACK WATER. SO I MEAN, WHEN YOU GET ONE OF THOSE BRAIN EVENTS, YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT GONNA SEE. YEAH. SO THIS, THIS IS MY TOPIC PLAN TO PLAY BALL DURING THAT THEN YOU MAY STILL MAY GET YOUR FEET BACK. SO YEAH, THIS IS MY TOPIC, LIKE YOUR TRAFFIC TOPIC. SO WE'RE GOING TO DEAL WITH THAT ONE PROPERTY MORE APPROPRIATELY. AND I LIVE HALF A MILE IN THAT DIRECTION AND COULD GET MORE WATER IN MY BACKYARD OR FLOOD MY HOUSE FOR THE THIRD TIME. IT DOESN'T RAIN ANYMORE. IT'S ELEVATED, BUT WHAT'S THAT? IT DOESN'T RAIN IN NASHVILLE, BRENTWOOD ANYMORE. WE STOPPED THAT. TALKING ABOUT BUILDING STUFF UPSTREAM AND STOP HAVING RAIN ACTUALLY FLOW. THE, THE OUTFLOW ACTUALLY GOES TO THE WEST. SO IF YOU LOOK EAST HERE, WHAT WAS THAT? I'M SORRY, WHAT YOU SAID SAID IT GOES TO THE WEST, THE WATER GOES TO THE WEST HERE, OUT HERE NOW. SO YEAH, SO THIS CHANGE IS SOMETHING THAT WAS APPROVED PREVIOUSLY BUT CHANGES IT TO POTENTIALLY WE DID NOT APPROACH PREVIOUS AS A CONCEPT PLAN. WE JUST APPROVED THE ZONING CHANGE AND NOT, 'CAUSE THAT'S WHEN, THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF WHEN YOU GET A CONCEPT PLAN AND THEY TRY TO PUT THAT IN THE ZONING. NO, NO. ALL WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS ZONING. GOTCHA. AND YOU CAN CHANGE IT, WHATEVER. BUT THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T GET TOO IN THE WEEDS ON THE CONCEPT PLANS BECAUSE THEN THEY CAN COME TO THIS, YOU GO, HEY, YOU GUYS GOT ALL EXCITED, TOLD US TO DO STUFF AND WE TOTALLY CHANGED IT. YEAH. PREVIOUSLY WE JUST ADDED THIS TO THEIR JOB. WE JUST CHANGED THEIR ZONING FROM, WAS IT FROM RESIDENTIAL TO, UM, SERVICE, SERVICE, SERVICE. THAT, THAT WAS THE WHOLE DEBATE. AND EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD THE MIRACLE FIELD AND WE HAD SOME WEIGHT OF IT, I WAS LIKE, WE DON'T NEED THAT. 'CAUSE THIS IS BETTER THAN THE CONCEPT PLAN IN TERMS OF DRAINAGE. IS THAT WHAT I'M HERE FIVE IN TERMS OF ALSO USAGE WAS THE BIG ONE BECAUSE THE BUILDING PREVIOUS DEBATE WAS GETTING RID OF TWO FIELDS. SO THAT WAS A HOT TOPIC. WAS LIGHTING ALWAYS CONSIDERED HERE? YES. AND LIGHTING STILL BEING PROPOSED, BUT THEY DON'T, UM, DAVIDSON COUNTY LIGHTING. I DON'T THINK THEY PROPOSED REALLY ANY EVENING GAMES, BUT IF THEY DO IT'LL BE LIKE TURNED OFF AROUND EIGHT O'CLOCK AND IT'S TUCKED IN THERE PRETTY WELL. YEAH, I MEAN IT'S, SO THEY'RE PULLING IT CLOSER TOWARDS LIKE, YOU KNOW, BEING HIDDEN BY THE CHURCH. SO IT STILL, UM, THE LIGHTING ISN'T GOING IN THEORY GOING TO AFFECT THE NEIGHBORS RIGHT HERE. IT'S IN METRO. YEAH, IT'S ALSO IN METRO. SO WE DON'T HAVE THE FULL OVER THAT HERE. WE HAVE TO VOTE ON OUR, UM, MEETING SCHEDULE. YES. SO THE ONLY CHANGES ARE MONDAY WE MOVE UP TO THE NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP ON APRIL 5TH. RIGHT. AND DO WE WANT TO HAVE A MEETING ON THE SIXTH OR IS THE FIFTH GOOD FOR JULY? WE TRADITIONALLY MOVE IT ONE OFF AND SIX IS GOOD. I MEAN, I'M GOOD WITH THOSE DATES. YEAH. BECAUSE I THINK SINCE THE FOURTH IS ON A SUNDAY CITY IS CLOSED ON MONDAY. OH, OKAY. FOR OBSERVATION OF THE FOURTH, WHICH IS WHY [01:05:01] WE MOVED THAT TO TUESDAY. UM, BUT YEAH, SO UH, THE APRIL MEETING HAS BEEN MOVED UP TO SIX 30 BECAUSE OF THE, UH, ME MADNESS JULY HAS MOVED TO TUESDAY BECAUSE THE 4TH OF JULY HOLIDAY BEING OBSERVED ON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER IS LABOR DAY, WHICH IS NORMAL. UM, AND THEN IT'S NOT THE CRUISE TREE LIGHTING. THE TREE LIGHTING DECEMBER 6TH. WE HAVE PUSHED THAT TO SEVEN 30, WHICH AS A REMINDER, UM, OR NEXT MONTH IS 7, 7 30 FOR DECEMBER AND THEN, UM, FOR JANUARY. THAT BRIEFING IS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 29TH BECAUSE OF NEW YEAR'S EVE OF THAT BEING ON THURSDAY. SO WE'RE TRYING TO AVOID CONFLICT. YES. WE'LL CHANGE THAT. THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE 27TH. UM, SO YOU GUYS WILL VOTE TO APPROVE THIS. WE'LL MAKE THAT ONE CHANGE FOR THE 2027. DO WE HAVE A MEETING HERE NEXT TUESDAY? NEXT THURSDAY? YES. SO, UM, WE ARE HOLDING A SPECIAL SESSION FOR PLANNING COMMISSION FOR THE 2040 PLAN ON NEXT THURSDAY AT 8:00 AM DOWNSTAIRS IN OUR LARGE CONFERENCE ROOM, IT'LL BE THE CONSULTANTS MD, C, AND B TRANSPORTATION. GOING OVER THE SURVEY RESULTS AND, UH, DISCUSSIONS ABOUT MOVING FORWARD. WHAT NEXT STEPS, WHAT'S THE PLANNED, UH, TIME FOR THAT MEETING? 8:00 AM 8:00 AM EIGHT TO WHAT? UH, IT'LL PROBABLY, IT JUST DEPENDS ON HOW LONG IT TAKES, BUT WE ANTICIPATE IT LASTING AN HOUR, HOUR AND A HALF. OKAY. AT MOST BE LIVESTREAM. HUH? WON'T BE LIVESTREAM. NO. NOT RECORDED OR ANYTHING. I CAN'T ATTEND. SO MEETING RIGHT AFTER NINE AT NINE. A BRIEFING AT NINE CITY COMMISSION UP HERE. AND THEN AFTER THE BRIEFING AND PRESENTATION WILL BE MADE TO THE CITY COMMISSIONERS. WE'RE NOT, WE'RE NOT MEETING IN THIS ROOM. PLANNING. COMMISSION IS MEETING. WE'RE MEETING DO IS MEETING DOWNSTAIRS? DOWNSTAIRS. IN YOUR CLUB HERE. YOU ONLY GET AN HOUR WITH US, BUT, OR YOU CAN JUST DO YOUR HOUR AND A HALF AFTER YOUR MEETING. THAT'S KIND OF WHAT I, YEAH, YOU CAN WAIT. YOU CAN JUST SAY, I AM NOT GONNA BE THERE AT ALL FOR YOU PLANNING COMMISSIONERS, IS THERE ANYTHING WRITTEN THAT, THAT WE COULD REVIEW? IF WE CAN'T ATTEND THAT MEETING OR ANYTHING? THERE WILL BE A COUPLE OF HANDOUTS THAT I'LL, I CAN PROVIDE TO YOU. I CAN SEND EVERYONE, I CAN SELL 'EM ONE RIGHT NOW. , I SENT YOU A LOT. YEAH. PAGES OF IT. HOW YOU COME? DID I MISS IT? THERE WAS ONE CHANGE TO THIS. YES. UM, WE HAD A TYPO HERE WHERE IT SAYS THURSDAY, JANUARY 28TH. 2026. THAT SHOULD BE 2027. BUT THE DATE DOESN'T CHANGE, I DON'T THINK. GOTCHA. WE USE THE SAME TEMPLATE EVERY YEAR AND IT'S MAKING SURE THAT A SIX IS A SEVEN OR SEVEN IS AN EIGHT. SO NEXT YEAR. ALRIGHT. I THINK. YEP, THAT'S IT. QUESTION. WE HAD GOOD DISCUSSION, RICK'S COMMENTS. IS THERE AN APPROPRIATE WAY TO KIND OF, IF YOU GET THAT ON THE RECORD MONDAY WITHOUT US HAVING HAVE TO HAVE THAT LONG DEBATE SO THE CITIZENS KNOW THAT CONCERN WAS THERE? I INTEND TO BRING IT UP. I'M GONNA BRING IT UP. YOU. * This transcript was created by voice-to-text technology.
