The Plan Commission considered this request at their January 5, 2015 meeting and voted to recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit to the Board of Aldermen. Recommendation is to conduct a public hearing and approve the resolution. In response to Alderman Boulton’s question, Ms. Tracy Thomas, representative for Central Bank explained that the construction trailer is only temporary during construction. She explained that due to the convenience of online/electronic services more customers are utilizing that form of banking making their current nine-lane drive through underutilized and therefore they will be constructing a much smaller drive through in order to free-up customer parking to the building. Mayor Pro Tempore closed the Public Hearing. Alderman Garnholz moved to approve Resolution No. 15-01, to approve a conditional use permit for Central Bank of St. Louis. Alderman Winings seconded. The motion passed unanimously on a voice vote. A PUBLIC HEARING AND AN ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER APPROVING A REVISION TO CHAPTER 405 (ZONING REGULATIONS), TO ADOPT A NEW ARTICLE REGULATING OUTDOOR DINING

Mayor Pro Tempore opened the Public Hearing. City Manager Owens reported that the purpose of the proposed regulations is to permit outdoor dining on public and private property that is compatible with other uses of the sidewalk. The regulations simplify and consolidate the current requirements, allow more administrative flexibility, and protect and maintain accessible sidewalks. The proposed regulations closely mirror the existing Outdoor Dining Standards with some variations.

The regulations simplify and consolidate the current requirements, allow more administrative flexibility, and protect and maintain accessible sidewalks. The proposed regulations closely mirror the existing Outdoor Dining Standards with some variations. Staff is of the opinion that the proposed regulations are in the best interests of the citizenry as a whole and represent a fair balance between the encouragement of outdoor dining and the impact to the community. Recommendation is to conduct a public hearing and approve an Ordinance revising Chapter 405 (Zoning Regulations), by the addition of a new Article XXIX entitled “Outdoor Dining”. In response to Alderman Lintz’ question, City Manager Owens explained that the restaurants are using the spaces along the curb/sidewalk productively and it seems to have worked well in maintaining the three foot pathway for pedestrians. He stressed that staff will consistently enforce those requirements for the safety of the pedestrians. Alderman Berger expressed his concerns regarding the past approval of signage, particularly “sandwich boards” and it feels to him in some instances it causes an “obstacle course”. He stressed that he is a proponent of outdoor dining, but raises caution about accessibility. He is confident that staff will do a good job in enforcing the requirements. Alderman Berger asked for clarification if the curb area and the three-foot pathway is inclusive of the streetscape. City Manager Owens referred to the ordinance, Section 405.3980: Location, which stipulates the requirements. Alderman Berger commented that he has had a conversation with three restaurant owners and they are very much encouraged by the City’s decision.

Alderman Garnholz seconded. The motion passed unanimously on a voice vote. Alderman Garnholz introduced Bill No. 6478, an ordinance to consider adopting a new article to the City’s Land Use Code (Title IV) to establish regulations governing outdoor dining to be read for the second time by title only. Alderman Winings seconded. City Attorney O’Keefe reads Bill No. 6478, an Ordinance Creating a New Article XXIX of the Zoning Regulations titled Outdoor Dining, and Repealing and Replacing All Existing Resolutions, Moratoriums, and Regulations Related to Outdoor Dining, and Other Actions Related Thereto, for the second time by title only. Alderman Garnholz – Aye; Alderman Winings – Aye; Alderman Boulton – Aye; Alderman Berger – Aye; Alderman Lintz – Aye; and Mayor Pro Tempore Harris – Aye. The bill was adopted and became Ordinance No. 6352 of the City of Clayton. FY2014 FINANCIAL REPORT

Debt Service Funds – Increase in Transfer-Out of $985,000  This amendment provides for the ability to transfer bond funds to the CIP fund for construction. Bond funds are received in a separate fund and only transferred into the construction fund when the construction projects actually occur. In FY14, approximately $985,000 of bond-funded construction actually occurred. The ordinance incorporates the amendment to the FY14 budget. Recommendation is to approve the ordinance adopting an amendment to the FY14 budget with a net effect on the City’s fund balances of a decrease of $985,000.
