Planning and Zoning Board Minutes February 16, 2006 Page 2 Citizen Participation: Barry McPhearson, 1960 Jamison Drive was there representing the majority of homeowners on the 1900 Block of Jamison Drive with regard to a lighting issue. They recently to the north had a new development which eventually would be 5 medical office buildings and unfortunately due to the planning of the space, the parking lot is on their backyards and the accompanying lights are on all night long and they are exceedingly bright. They are way in excess of the legal limits of light being allowed into their yards. He had a photometric drawing of what was intended for this space and they have also gone through and taken photometric readings throughout this space and in many instances they are 9 times in excess of what is allowed. They have discussed this with the developer and he has sent them away saying "he does not care if they sell their house, his plan was approved before you bought your house". That is incorrect and they would just like some resolution. He addressed the problem with the contractor before the lights were installed, before the electrical was run and before the foundations were poured. He also suggested alternative solutions for them and was told to "go jump in a lake". According to the document on file with the city, they are supposed to be 20 foot 6 inches high and some of the lights are approaching 3 foot higher than they are supposed to be. They are supposed to be installed with shields and none of them have shields. They are frustrated and are looking for a resolution. Director Gloss understood that this is a zoning enforcement action and that request had already been forwarded on to zoning and they are actively pursuing it. He stated that this is an ongoing zoning investigation and the city will be pursuing compliance of that lighting plan as approved originally as part of the development. They have to be compliant in order to get a Certificate of Occupancy. There was no other Citizen Participation. Chairperson Lingle suggested adding Item 7, Fox Meadows Business Park to the Consent Agenda. The Board agreed to add it to the Consent Agenda. Member Schmidt moved to approve the Consent agenda consisting of Item 1, less the October 20, 2005 meeting, 2, 3, 49 6 and 7. Member Meyer seconded the motion. The motion was approved 6-0.
