Lisa Marie Coppoletta, she expressed concern with flooding and does not see the logic of using a flood area floodplain as detention. There being no further speakers, Mayor Hughson closed the Public Hearing at 8:14 p.m. A motion was made by Council Member Gleason, seconded by Mayor Hughson, to approve Ordinance 2022-11, on the first of two readings. Council Member Baker expressed concern with the lot being split up. He stated it's for a water retention but why not on the water retention plan for the entire property. He asked if this impacts the requirements that would be require to have if the entire property is Light Industrial. Does this benefit them paying cheaper taxes or fees? Ms. Mattingly stated in a CD -1 zoning keeps anything from being developed. They have taken the floodway and rezone to CD -1 for open space and couldn't do any Light Industrial in the area. Council Member Baker asked what led them to make this choice and why not rezone the entire property as Light Industrial? Ms. Mattingly stated the CD -1 does allow development that would be in the floodway and would not be able to develop multifamily because of the floodway area. Mr. Griffin stated no benefits to the developer only conservation of open space and only kept as an open area. The request was for Character District -1 to ensure nothing is permitted to be built. He mentioned on the far end of the floodplain about an acre is developable land is included for CD -1. Ms. Mattingly stated the preferred scenario map identifies as open space and a preferred scenario amendment to allow Light Industrial in the open space.
