VILLAGE OF EVENDALE
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
July 18, 2006
EVENDALE MUNICIPAL BUILDING
The regular July meeting of the Evendale Planning Commission (EPC) was called to order by Chairperson Dick Shaffer at 6 PM on July 18, 2006. Attending were EPC members Susan van Amerongen, Chris Schaefer (Council Representative), Rob Adams, and Dick Shaffer, Michael Schwartzman. Supporting the EPC were Ralph Terbrueggen, Tim Burke and Kathy Farro (Manley Burke representative), James Jeffers (Village Engineer), and Pam Morin (Village Building Department Clerk).
Because of the large number of items on the agenda, New Business items 3, 4, & 5 were moved to a supplemental Evendale Planning Commission Meeting to be held July 25, 2006 at 5:45 p.m.
OLD BUSINESS
1) Tom Salas, 2983 P.G. Graves Lane, has requested a Conditional Use Permit for outdoor storage of a recreational vehicle at the above mentioned property.
Mr. Tom Salas, representing the business owner at 2983 P.G. Graves Lane, came before the Commission regarding an outdoor vehicle storage violation. Mr. Salas presented a letter from the property owner stating that he would allow the boat storage to occur on his property. Boat storage is not an allowed use for this zone unless it is in an enclosed structure, which this boat is not. A motion was made by Michael Schwartzman to not approve the conditional use and seconded by Susan van Amerongen.
The motion was passed by a 5 yes 0 no vote.
NEW BUSINESS
1) Performance Alignment, 2721 Sharon Road
Mr. Nick Eveland and Andy Randin representing Performance Alignment requested approval of a modification to the west elevation of the proposed Performance Alignment building that was included in the approved site plan. A motion was made by Chris Schaefer to approve the modified west elevation and seconded by Michael Schwartzman.
The motion was passed by a 5 yes 0 no vote.
2) Boyd Bros. Transportation, 2521 Glendale Milford Road
Mr. Stanley Cohen and Tres Parker representing Boyd Bros. Transportation requested approval of parking lot improvements at 2521 Glendale Milford Road. Because the trucking use is a non-conforming use, issues of how to approach this request were raised. A motion was made by Chris Schaefer and seconded by Michael Schwartzman to table this request until the July 25, 2006 meeting.
The motion was passed by a 5 yes 0 no vote.
3) Evendale Commons Business Park - Area C-1 Design Review
Moved to July 25, 2006 agenda
4) Evendale Commons Business Park - Area C-1 & C-3 Lot Split
Moved to July 25, 2006 agenda
5) Fifth Third Bank, Evendale Common Business Park - Area C-3 Design Review
Moved to July 25, 2006 agenda
6) Rest Haven Memorial Park, 10209 Plainfield Road
Mr. David Shanteau, representing the Rest Haven Memorial Park presented conceptual plans for review and approval in order to market a new mausoleum. A motion by Susan van Amerongen, seconded by Dick Shaffer, was made to conditionally approve the site plan, subject to a future site plan review. The following issues were noted: potential lighting concerns with adjacent neighbors, the traffic flow around the circle drive, the size of the retention pond, and other potential development around the corner of Glendale Milford and Plainfied Roads.
The motion was passed by a 5 yes 0 no vote.
7) Earnest & Gladys Bowman, 3281 Plateau Place
Mr. Earnest Bowman, Mr. Anthony Gertz, Ms.Caroline Duffy, and Mr. Mike Duffy requested a lot split for the property at 3281 Plateau Place for the development of a single-family home. There would be two resulting lots, an approximate 1.5 acre lot where the Duffy's would build a single-family home and an approximate 1 acre lot that would remain owned by the Bowman's. A letter from the Hamilton County General Health Department (HCGHD) requested that Mr. Bowman combine the 1 acre lot with his adjoining property (where his current house is located) because the 1 acre lot could not accommodate a single-family home due to the septic system sizing requirements. Mr. Bowman indicated that he would
rather not consolidate the lots because a future sanitary system may be installed that would make this property developable. It was determined that the issue of the lot consolidation and the HCGHD was not a question to be decided by the Planning Commission at this time and that Mr. Bowman would have to deal with them directly to resolve their request. A motion was made by Michael Schwartzman and seconded by Chris Schaefer to approve the lot split.
The motion was passed on a 5 yes 0 no vote.

1) Village Engineer gave progress update on Evendale Commons Business Park progress.
2) Report from Economic Development Director

Discussion regarding the Thru the Valley project, the status of the offsite meeting, and the agenda for the July 25, 2006 meeting occurred.
4) Approval of the minutes from June 27, 2006 Planning Commission meeting.
A motion was made by Susan van Amerongen to approve the minutes with amendment to the adjournment time and seconded by Michael Schwartzman.
The motion was passed by 5 yes and 0 no vote.
On a motion to adjourn the meeting by Dick Shaffer and seconded by Rob Adams, the meeting was adjourned at 9:10 PM by a 5 yes to 0 no vote. The next meeting is scheduled for July 25, 2006 at 5:45 PM.
