August 1, 2016 — Meeting Minutes

This document is the transcript-style minutes of the City of Clayton City Plan Commission/Architectural Review Board meeting held August 1, 2016. It covers presentations and discussion of a proposed mixed-use/parking development (including references to zoning, the Clayton Plaza Overlay District, parking reductions, underground parking, and building heights), neighborhood meetings and design changes, and public/commission questions about site layout and pedestrian circulation. The excerpts record specific project changes mentioned by presenters (removal of about 120 surface parking spaces, adding more underground parking, lowering parking-structure heights, and plans for Lyle to be a full-service road with metered parking) and include commissioners’ and attendees’ comments and questions, but do not show any formal votes or final decisions in the sampled pages.

132 1 chance to, let them know that there will be other 2 meetings and opportunities to do that and we will have 3 all of this videotaped and posted up on the website 4 tomorrow. 5 So -- and there also is a transcript being 6 made and so we're trying to account for it after the 7 fact but in the future, we'll definitely have better 8 facilities available, so that everybody can 9 participate. 10 THE CHAIRMAN: Thank you and with that, 11 it's 8:30.

We want to work with the 25 entire team to make this work for, not only for Centene Concannon & Jaeger St. Louis, Missouri (314) 421-1000

130 1 and Clayco but for the entire City as we go forward. I 2 think Scott summed it up pretty well, that it can be a 3 world-class solution and something that the St. Louis 4 region certainly needs. 5 We're very lucky that they'd like to 6 remain and grow right here in Clayton. I think, 7 hopefully, we've given some constructive criticism for 8 thought and we're not going to close the public 9 hearing. We're going to continue it to the future, so 10 that it will be one continuous record. 11 MR. CLARK: Okay. Well -- 12 THE CHAIRMAN: And are there any other 13 comments? 14 MR. REIM: I would just like to say, Bob, 15 I appreciate the fact that you did a concise 16 presentation this evening and that this feels 17 cooperative and collaborative, as opposed to 18 adversarial, which is very appreciated by this group. 19 MR. CLARK: Well and I hope the community 20 finds it to be an honest process from us as well. We 21 think there's been some misrepresentations in the 22 community. You know, we're very aware of that. 23 We think this project deserves nothing 24 less than at least honesty from every side of the coin 25 and so our intention is to be transparent.

131 1 -- being transparent. We'll never keep anything from 2 the public that we know about and we want to separate 3 fact from fiction because it's too important of a 4 project to every stakeholder to not get it right, so 5 thank you. 6 MS. BOULTON: I just want to thank you for 7 all of the public engagement that you've done. It's 8 been very phenomenal and I appreciate it from the 9 aldermanic line. 10 MR. CLARK: Thank you. I think I made 11 some new friends. Maybe not, too. Okay. Thank you. 12 Is that it? 13 THE CHAIRMAN: Staff, any final words 14 tonight? Craig? 15 MR. OWENS: I just, make comment about the 16 facilities and a lot of the people that I wish should 17 have heard it aren't here for that but obviously, we 18 did not estimate that there would be almost double the 19 interest in attending this. 20 And in future, we will definitely plan 21 better, find another venue, if we can, to try and make 22 it a more active process, have more people participate. 23 This will be posted. It is being recorded and we'll 24 post it out online so anybody that you -- any of your 25 neighbors that were here to speak and didn't have a Concannon & Jaeger St. Louis, Missouri (314) 421-1000
