PUBLIC HEARINGS
ID Amendment: Application of Benjamin Beard to unify the current ID Institutional,
Planned Unit Development & R-1 Single-Family zoning districts of the Padre Pio Health
Center and Assisi Village into a single Planned Unit Development with a Planned
Residential designation, and to allow an addition to be built on the South Side of the
Assisi Village Building.
Benjamin Beard with Straka Johnson P.0 and Gretchen Brown with Stonehill Care
Center, represented the applicant. They reiterated the proposal and said they would be
available for questions.
Commissioner Russell asked it the proposed structure was built at ground level. Mr.
Beard stated that the structure in question was a raised walkway to connect the two
buildings.
Staff Member Kyle Kritz detailed the staff report. He noted that debate had been had
during the creation of the district as to whether it should be ID or PUD designation. As it
stands today, PUD would make more sense and align with similar uses throughout the
city. He also noted that the last amendment for the district should have included the
neighboring R-1 district and that small parcel is included in this proposal.
Chariperson Henschel asked if parking would be impacted by this proposal. Staff
Member Kritz pointed out that most of the residents of the facility will not typically drive.
He also noted that some parking will be displaced to add the proposed structures and
that two garages were being created to replace those lost.
Motion by Norton, seconded by Baumhover, to approve the ID Amendment request as
submitted. Motion carried by the following vote: Aye — Baumhover, Christ, Belmont,
Norton, Roussell, Russell, and Henschel; Nay — None.
REZONING: Application of Kristen and Steve Vaassen to rezone from R-1 Single-Family
Residential zoning district to OC Office Commercial zoning district to allow for an Event
Center.
The applicant submitted an email requesting to withdraw their application.
Motion by Christ, seconded by Belmont, to approve the withdrawal. Motion carriers by the
following vote: Aye — Baumhover, Belmont, Christ, Roussell, Norton, Russell, and
Henschel; Nay — None.
