All right. Good evening, everyone. Welcome to our public participation meeting tonight on September the 5th. My name is Shane Howard. I am a planner to here with the city of John started. First, I'll give an overview of all four of our projects that we have tonight. And then after that, each applicant will get 10 minutes to present their project to you all. And then once that portion is over, we will close the live session and have more of a candidate conversation with the applicants where you can ask them any questions you have in regards to their project. All right, so let's go ahead and get started with our first case. with the applicants where you can ask them any questions you have in regards to their project. All right, so let's go ahead and get started with our first case. This is special use permit for 4765 Kimberbridge Road. It's approximately 3.95 acres. The zoning is not changing, but it is in 2,515 square foot expansion of the existing church to include an accessory daycare with one concurrent variance to allow encroachment of the existing playground and so the 50 foot buffer and Sanflin improvement setback. So it is right here. If you can see that on the screen. Our second project is a rezone from AG1 agriculture to R4A, a single-family dwelling unit. On one acre of land at non-675, Brumbolo Road, they are proposing two single-family homes at a density of two units per acre with one concurrent variants to eliminate the 10% open space requirement. You can see it on the screen right here. Our next project is right down the street at 9-1-1-0, Brambolo Road, approximately 0.926 acres also rezoning from AG1 to R4A, proposing two single family homes at a density of 2.15 units per acre with one concurrent variance to eliminate the 10% open common space requirement as well. And that property is right here. Our last one is a reason from AG1 to CUP, the Community Unit Plan District, located at 10505, 10555 and 10655 Embry Femmes Road, approximately 204.10 acres of land. They are proposing 205 single family residential detached lots at a density of one unit per acre. This entire area right here. With that, I will have our first applicants come up from the Messiah Lutheran Church. Thank you, ma'am. My name is Harmon Lewis. I am the pastor at Messiah John's Creek. And we're asking, as they said, to use our existing facility to serve us also a preschool. We have a half day program from 8 to 12 is what we're planning. We already have a director that's got experience, 17 years of experience, 12 as a director. Program is not just simply a daycare, but uses a blend of STEM and high scope curriculums. This is our existing facility. And this section right here already exists is used as Sunday school classrooms, that's the same as this section right here. So we're not asking that our building be expanded in that section at all but rather that we're able to just repurpose our existing academic section to serve as also a preschool during the week. That's the upper level of our existing education wing about seven hour ninety square six square feet so that's about 22 children per class, although we're looking at about a nine to one ratio. So about 18 students is our current plan in that space. Our building there's this to accommodate that so again right in that little section right there does it change but then you can see down here well you can barely see it but that's where the playground is. We're talking about a playground already exists there. We're just asking that we're basically able to fence that in for the safety of the children. Should that go well, sorry about that graphic on top of it, should that go well, then we would like to expand the front of our facility facility and that's this section right here for more where I can teach my classes and then we can have more of a fellowship space because all of our current space will be used for the preschool. I think that's all that I have Sean do you want to add to it? I'm the architect from Norwood Architects. My name is Sean Fogarty. I'll get you more Do we have the other, the, the submitted documents? There was another one. Just the formal submitted documents, the site plan. I use whatever was sent to us. Was there under attachment? So we don't, do you want to get to the site plan? Yes. I don't have that. I'm going to just talk about it. Yeah, I just talked about it. OK. So this, so there's three phases to the project. Phase, let's see. So phase one is back in this academic building. The pastor talked about. It's an existing building, so the change is changing the interior space only. The only thing that will happen in this phase one is that we will add defense to the playground out back. Phase two is contingent upon the success of phase one. Phase two is contingent upon the success of Phase one. Phase two is in this section. It's the same thing. We're going to modify the interior space again only. So Phase two doesn't affect the exterior because we've already got that fence area for the playground. Phase three, so both of these phases have taken over existing church classroom space. So for phase three we're going to give you back to the church by expanding this front section. This will be new addition, new footprint. So this new addition, this new footprint is now we're looking at the site as far as runoff. So we've got area allocated for stormwater runoff on the site. The site is not a location for wetlands. It's not a risk for floodplains. We've taken a look at the, for phase three, that's the maximum expansion of people using this space. So that'll add 60 students maximum. So at that 60 student number the number of trips generated is, I believe it's 47, which is well below the requirement for initiating a traffic study. The parking lot is existing, it handles, it's most often it's tied to the largest assembly space. We talked about it, we need to adjust the number or two, but for the, when the daycare comes in, but it doesn't adjust the parking. So the parking handles the new load without any changes to the site. Yeah, we're looking for a variance because of the playground fencing. It's instead of a 50 foot buffer in the back, we're asking for a 40 foot buffer just to bring that fence in around the existing structures. I think that's our project. Thank you. Okay, next we'll have the representative for 965, Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. This is Muhammad Ash-Tadi project manager for this project and I'm representing a Builder and owner of this lot and Basically this lot is one acre and we want to rezone it from AG1 to r4a and we're going to build two lots approximately about 3,200 square feet. And this property is going to be built by John Jamont, which built the neighborhood behind it. And he owns most of the lots behind it, too. And it's going to fit the neighborhood, it's going to be pretty good looking houses, like the ones behind this houses, and we want to remove this, we're asking for variance to remove this 10% open space that requirement and if any question, is there any question, I can answer the elevations too. So it's going to be two houses, L-shaped, one on the left side, and one on the right side. This is the elevation that we're going to look at after we finished. It's going to be a hammer head shape driveway coming from the street toward between these two houses. That will be all. Okay, next we'll have the representative for 9-1-1-0 Brumbole. I'm Mark Patrick, the civil engineer representing the Passata family. It's a one acre track on Rumble Loro right at Nesbit. The goal is to change it from AGE1 to R4A so it can be divided into two individual lots. The two individual lots will then be improved to 4,500 roughly square foot homes with a basement and two stories above the basement. The 10% reduction on the green spaces just to help with, you know, but you'll still have nice yards and all the requirements that John's Creek will be met. This piece of property is pretty heavily forested at this time, and we'll try to keep as many trees as we possibly can. Thank you. Okay, and last but not least, we'll have the representative for Embry Farms. How do I switch to the images with the... representative for in brief arms. I'm going to start there and then you can just use that to go forward and backwards. This is for yes. Good evening everybody, my name is Din Webb. I'm a land use attorney with Smith, Cambrale and Russell. I'm here on behalf of Toll Brothers. Before I begin, let me introduce a couple of folks here with me. First, the gentleman to my left is Dan Cotter. Dan is in charge of the land entitlement for toll brothers. In the back, we've got three others, Tyler Baker, Cam Lee, both on the land development side, and Katie Everett, who is also with entitlements. I thought I would start with a little history on this property. Everybody's heard of the Embry Farm, but I don't know if everybody understands the family history there. The Embry family bought this 205 acres in the 1970s. Mr. and Mrs. Embry had two daughters. They actually lived on the property and this was effectively a gentleman's farm. Those who've been in John's Creek for a long time know that they had cattle out there. They also had a sod farm. Mr. Embry died in 2002, and his wife died two years ago. Now the two daughters own this property and they really are not in a position to continue to operate it. If you've been by the site, you know it's a very well maintained. They have folks who keep it up, they cut the grass, they keep the fences mended, they maintain the buildings, but it is time to move on. The daughters really are not in a position to continue the property. They have been working with a broker for a long time named Rob Jordan and there have been a number of attempts to do things with this property. Some of you may know that Ashen Woods came through six, seven years ago to try and propose a 300-77 unit residential development that included 164 town homes. I think that application was ultimately withdrawn. The embriors also work with John's Creek on trying to bring the U.S. soccer federation to that property. That was an 18-month process with a bunch of folks coming on and off the property. They work well together, but again, at the end of the day, the U.S. Soccer Federation shows a different site. They've also attempted to work with Johns Creek on allowing this property, or at least some part of it to be used as a park space. And again, that had not yielded results, although I think we've got a good story on park space tonight. Given the history of the site, given the need to unload it, given the attempts to make other uses of this property, the Embrace Charge Rob, the broker, to find a great developer to do something great on this property. Does anyone here familiar with the name Tolbrothers? Tolbrothers is America's luxury home builder. They are the best in America. They have a variety of sites all over the country, but they have several here in Georgia as well. And they were the first choice of the Embry family. They want something great to go on this property. So this is what toll brothers has come up with. And let me explain a little bit about the coloring. This property is 205 acres. You'll notice green on the site plan and blue. Those are open space areas that will be maintained. 111 acres of the 205 acres will be maintained as open space. And the area that you see in blue is proposed to be dedicated to John's Creek for use as a public park. That's almost 60 acres, a significant amount of which is actually buildable. We have the benefit of knowing a little bit about the history of this property and other attempts to develop it. We've dug heavily into action woods plans from five or six years ago. We studied the comp plan. We've talked to a variety of people, we've had meetings with a lot of folks over the last couple months. I know this is our first meeting and we're delighted to be here, but we've been meeting with folks a lot for months now to try and understand what the city sees for this property and what the issues were folks had with other proposed developments here. And we hope we have come up with something good. It's 205 acres and we're posing 205 units as one unit per acre. That is consistent with the complinen designation for this property. That is what the city has envisioned for this site. I'm going to touch on a couple aspects of this proposed development. The first is if you look at the entryway, we're proposing around about it. We've got a little bit more detailed plans on that but we are still working through sort of the mechanics of how that will work and just so you know we slow this application down to deal with that roundabout. We actually sent a letter to Johns Creek this week asking for a 30 day administrative hold so this property will not be going to the Planning Commission in November. It will actually be going in December and the main driver for us was to allow more time to drill down and understand the traffic study and also to meet with some neighbors who will be affected by the traffic study too, some of whom we've already had some contact with. You'll also notice the primary road into the site is a spine road. It parallels the development of the left, which is known as Nellie-Brook Court. There are no homes on that spine road. We are very intentional about that. We've got a minimum 50 foot buffer on the west side. We've got 60 feet of right away. We've got 50 feet of buffer on the east side, but there are no homes that will actually front that road. And the west side of that roadway will be burned and landscape. Here are the numbers. At this narrowest point from the back of an Ellibra clock to the back of one of our lots, it's 160 feet. At its widest point, it's 220 feet and the average is 185 feet. Again, that is separation from a lot line to a lot line. If you look at back door from our proposed development and back door to Ellibra, you're talking at least 300 feet, a football field and distance between those two structures. And again, that driveway will be burned in heavily landscaped. Again, I've already talked about the park that you see in blue. You'll also notice along the Chattage River, we are proposing a mixed, excuse me, a multi-use trail. That'll be 12 feet wide and connect the properties to the east and to the west. And although it's hard to see on the site plan, there are a number of trails that we in and out of this property and they also connect to city trails now. So the easiest one to see is up in the northeast corner. That connects with the shape rag, I think it's called shape Rack Park trail up in the northeast corner and there are other trail connections you can see again it's hard to tell from this image because there's a lot going on on an 8 1.5 by 11 sheet but we have worked hard to make sure that not only are we providing some benefits to the folks that live around it like the traffic circle, like the park space, like the multi-use trail on the Chattichar River, but also connections to the parks so we can participate in the trail network in the area. Aminities are a big part of this development. The proposed pricing starts at 1.3 million on this site and we'll go to two. Those are a builder sales prices and once the market is established presumably those will go up. So that buyer is one to one heavily miniatized site. Let's see if I can move this along here. And I provided some images to kind of give you a sense for the flavor and feel of this proposed development. These are some homes that toll has actually built. These are not renderings. These are actually photos of homes that are in place right now and are represented with the types of homes that will go into this property. You've got some photos of the interior here. And some examples of amenities from other toll projects. The budget for the amenities on this site is over $5 million. So you can imagine, in fact, the total budget for this property is $5 million. So there's going to be significant investment here on this property in this area to make this development great, not just for the folks who live there, but for the folks who live around it. And we've got some other images of open space. Again, we've got 111 acres to deal with. We'll have passive open space for the most part with art, trails, and a variety of other things. And these are some images from existing toll projects now. And again, some examples of the type of landscape, the site would be heavily landscaped. And that is part of the amenity that toll invisions for this development. And there will be no detail that will be spared on this site. So I think that's what I wanted to cover. I'm looking forward to coming back and hearing your questions. And again, my name is Din Webb. Some of you got a letter from me. This is a big project we get. And there will be a lot of interface between us and the community. We've already started some of that. But I want to encourage all of you to feel free to reach out to me. At any point, I've had a lot of phone calls already. some of the suggestions that people made into the development and we certainly plan to do that as we continue to move forward. Thank you. Okay, so what that will close the live portion of this meeting and we will move into a move.
