Mr. Bangert asked Staff if the City had held up construction for a year as implied in a letter to Mr. Haley from Mr. Pagano dated May 3, 2002. Mr. Haley responded by saying he did not think Mr. Pagano felt the City's review process had taken a year, explaining that there were a variety of code compliant issues. Mr. Haley pointed out that such extensions have been granted on a variety of projects and felt the two on this evening' s Agenda have legitimate extension questions and should be granted at least 180 days. Mr. Rothman stated that the building had been removed and changes had been made to the plans. Mr. Kaplan referred to the long delay with The Hallmark (formerly One New Ballas Place) project and the discussions the Commission has had for requiring applicants to post a Performance Bond in the event the project is not completed. Mr. Moskowitz made a motion to approve the extension for 180 days. Said motion was seconded by Mr. Rovak and unanimously carried. 01 -028 ST. PAUL' S EVANGELICAL CHURCH Mr. Steve Anton, of KRJ, Inc., requested a 180 -day extension for the approval period of the Site Development Plan for St. Paul' s Evangelical Church, located at 9801 Olive Boulevard. Mr. Haley explained that Mr. Anton's request is for a 12 -month extension instead of six months, and thatv he had requested the item be moved from Consent Business so as to allow for discussion. Mr. Anton stated the need for the additional extension is due, in part, to the soil report and presence of asbestos in the area. St. Paul' s is also undertaking a fund -raising effort. Mr. Haley pointed out that if the 12 -month extension is granted, the new expiration date would be August 13, 2003. Construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2003.

Mr. Moskowitz made a motion to approve the requested Boundary Adjustment Plat. Said motion was seconded by Ms. Timm and unanimously carried. Upon a request from Chairman Meyer, the Commission members had no objection to hearing the application of The Hallmark of Creve Coeur before Street Tree Requirements. THE HALLMARK OF CREVE COEUR Ms. Nancy Rodney, ACUBoland, represented Brookdale Living Communities in a request for approval to eliminate the previously approved fence along Craig Road for The Hallmark of Creve Coeur, located on the south side of Olive Boulevard and the east side of Craig Road. Ms. Rodney presented a brief background. She pointed out that one of the amenities was a grove of trees next to the new entry on New Ballas Road, which is endangered by the encroachment of the lake and the fence. Ms. Rodney displayed pictures of the site, stating that Brookdale is very proud of their projects, which are very up- scale, home -like developments. She stated that they felt the fence was less of an amenity and more of an obstruction, referring to it as a barrier next to the sidewalk. Mr. Rovak inquired about the slope into the lake, from the sidewalk to the water' s edge, and Ms. Rodney replied that it was probably a 3 to 1 slope. Mr. Kaplan expressed concern with safety, and the need for some kind of barrier. Ms. Rodney suggested some type of shrubbery, stating that she felt a fence would send a message of "keep out ". A brief discussion followed. Mr. Bangert moved approval of the request to remove the fence along Craig Road, as described in the Staff Memo dated May 17, 2002. Said motion was seconded by Ms. Timm with the resultant vote as follows: Mr. Kaplan - nay Mr. Bangert - nay Mr. Moskowitz - nay Mr. Rovak - aye Ms. Timm - nay Chair Meyer - nay Motion to remove the fence failed by a vote of 1 aye and 5 nays. 02 -027 STREET TREE REQUIREMENTS Mr. Brandmeyer referred to the May 6 Work Session when the Commission discussed the need for a change to the street tree requirement in the Subdivision Code, from 40 feet to 30 feet on center, to be consistent with the landscaping section of the Zoning Ordinance. The Commission agreed to bring this forward to the regular Planning and Zoning meeting as a Text Amendment to the Subdivision and Land Development Regulations. Mr. Moskowitz made a motion to approve the change to the street tree requirement in the Subdivision Code from 40 feet to 30 feet, per the Staff memo dated May 20, 2002. Said motion was seconded by Mr. Bangert and unanimously carried. 3- 0 P & Z MINUTES - MAY 20, 2002 0 Mr. Haley noted that an amendment to the Subdivision Code does not require a Public Hearing, but that an ordinance will be forwarded to City Council for the June 10 meeting. 5.

Since our original approval in May of 2001, we have demolished the vacant house that was on the property at 851 North Spoede Road. We are asking for the extension due to the many months we have spent involved with plan reviews, finalizing blueprints to meet city criteria and the time that elapsed during the review process for various reasons. The architecture work was slowed by his previous work committments. In the next few months, we anticipate our architect answering all the twenty -seven points necessary for our plans being approved and the building permit being issued. The next step will then be to proceed with ground breaking and building construction. Thank you for considering our request for an extension. Sincerely, Chris J. Pa o p.

The homes will meet Single Family " A" setbacks. They will front Ladue Road and be turned -in slightly towards the other. One of the curbcuts on Ladue Road will be removed and access will be shared by both homes through a single drive. The site will have minimal grading and thus also have minimal tree loss. The applicant has provided sketches of the existing parcels with improvements and the proposed lot configuration. The applicant has also provided a letter further explaining the appeal and a letter that was sent to adjoining property owners, particularly residents on Shardue Lane. At the meeting, the applicant will provide elevations of the proposed structures and proposed boundary adjustment plats. HARDSHIP The applicant cites the following hardships influencing the variance request: 1. 2. 3. 4. The condition existed prior to present -day lot width regulations. New homes cannot be built on either property without a variance. The condition is not typical to the parcel development in the City of Creve Coeur. There is no impact upon the neighboring properties. VARIANCE CRITERIA As per Section 26 -118.4 of the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Creve Coeur, the Board of Adjustment shall not grant a variance unless it makes specific written findings of fact directly based upon the particular evidence presented to it that supports all of the following conclusions: a) The variance requested arises from a condition which is unique to the property in question and which is not ordinarily found in the same zoning district; b) The variance requested is because of a unique hardship not created by the applicant nor the owner of the property; c) The granting of the variance shall not adversely affect adjacent property owners or residents; d) The strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance from which a variance is requested, will cause severe practical difficulty or extreme hardship for the property owner represented in the application; e) The variance desired will not adversely affect the public health, safety, order, convenience, or general welfare of the community, and f) Granting the variance desired will not violate the general spirit and intent of this Chapter. STAFF' S ANALYSIS Although a variance is required for the submittal, the applicant' s proposal accomplishes two aims of the City. First, past applicants proposed additional units to be built on the lots. The current application maintains the existing density, which is a policy established by the City' s Comprehensive Plan. Second, the removal of the two homes on the site complies with requests by the Building Division to demolish the structures due to property maintenance issues. Please note that if approved by the Board of Adjustment and the Planning and Zoning Commission and the homes are built, future subdivision, rezoning or other development of this property is not likely to occur. Since a single developer will develop the lots, the lot widths can be reduced to offer symmetry between the properties. If two parties, acting on their own behalf, requested variances from the Zoning Ordinance, the lots would remain at 100 and 140 feet wide.

A fence ornamental in nature) has been part of the approved site development plans over the past four years. Richard J. Wolkowitz It is staff' s opinion that the elimination of the approved fence is considered a substantive change" and can not be administratively removed from the plans without the P & Z Commission' s authorization. A substantive change is defined in the City's Zoning Ordinance as "a modification to an approved site City Administrator development plan which... significantly alters, modified or changes material Mark C. Perkins aspects of the plan." PROJECT DESCRIPTION: City Clerk The subject property consists of 11. 2 acres located on the eastside of Craig LaVeme Collins Road, across from the North New Ballas Drive extension, north of the West Oak Square shopping center. The Hallmark of Creve Coeur is an apartment complex for elderly residents, in a multilevel residential structure varying in height of up to 6 stories, and currently under construction on the eastside of 0 0 Craig Road, just north of the West Oak Dierberg' s. Brookdale Living Communities purchased the parcel and development plans for One New Ballas Place from the original developer, Craig Capital, L. P. in early 2000. ACTION: The Planning & Zoning Commission has the following options: 1) Concur with the Brookdale Living Communities request and eliminate the fence in its entirety 2) Maintain the fence requirement as per the approval Site Development 3) Plan and deny the subject request. Modify the type, limits, and /or other elements of the previously approved fence. ACI 1 h BOLAN - NC.

New Ballas St. Louis, MO 63141 Re: The Hallmark of Creve Coeur Request for Planning and Zoning Approval ACI /Boland Project No. 200030 Dear Scott: 20th Please accept this letter as a request for The Hallmark of Creve Coeur to appear on the May Planning and Zoning Agenda. Brookdale Living Communities is requesting the deletion of the fence along Craig Road, previously approved by Planning and Zoning. The fence, as illustrated in the attached rendering, provides a separation between the pedestrian traffic along the Craig Road sidewalk and the amenities of the site. The site has a rolling aspect down to the lake and is quite accessible from numerous points along the sidewalk. The deletion of the fence would open the full length of the site as a public amenity, in lieu of creating a private, enclosed appearance to the property. I have attached 16 copies of the project rendering, as well as 16 copies of the Site Grading Plan with the fence area highlighted and noted, to accompany this request. I plan to provide photos of the project for the meeting to further illustrate the site concepts. I appreciate your courtesy in allowing us access to the agenda with short notice.

As I have indicated to you Judy Pass during previous conversations over the past several months and in my April 2nd email to you, that it is still my opinion that the fence identified on the SDP is required. Furthermore, the fence shall be erected prior to occupancy of the facility, unless modified by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The 3rd Ward Eleanor Glovinsky San, Page subject fence was identified on the stamped " APPROVED" Site Development Plan ( SDP), which was approved by the City of Creve Coeur Planning & Zoning Commission. Laura Bryant Suggesting the fence be eliminated, I believe, is a " substantive change" to the SDP and would require Planning & Zoning Commission approval. " Substantive Change" is defined in the City's Zoning Ordinance as a modification to an approved site development plan which...significantly Richard J. Wolkowitz alters, modifies or changes material aspects of the plan ". 4th Ward On several occasions in your April 4th letter, you indicate multiple City Administrator Mark C. Perkins conversations, meetings and contacts involving MoDOT and various city staff members regarding why the approved fence was required. The fence was originally submitted, and eventually approved by the Planning & Zoning Commission, as an aesthetic element to the site. It was not until after the approval of the SDP that the Department Highway and Traffic of St. Louis County ( not the Missouri Department of Transportation as you have referenced) raised several issues with the development. Some of those issues City Clerk Laverne Collins included the connection of the entrance with Craig and Ballas Road, the proximity of the guardhouse, the width and stacking of the proposed entrance drive, and the need for a physical barrier along the property. Your letter also indicates that the City should accept the removal of the fence based on a previous understanding. As you and I have discussed the past several months, neither you nor the owner's representatives have any letters or correspondence to or from the City that the fence may be eliminated from the project. Also, the City's files do not acknowledge this understanding as well. To summarize, it still my belief that only the Planning & Zoning Commission can authorize the reduction or removal of the ornamental fence that is identified on the approved SDP. The Planning & Zoning Commission is scheduled to convene on May 20th. I suggest either the fence be incorporated as identified on the SDP or request that the Commission eliminate the fence or reduce the limits of the fence. As I have indicated to you that a reduction in the length of the fence may be warranted and that the Commission may concur in doing so. Please let me know if you would like to be placed on the May 20th Planning & Zoning Commission meeting agenda. Should you have any questions with contents of this letter, please feel free to e.

At the work session, the Commission requested that this item be reviewed 3rd Ward at its May 20th meeting. David Kassander Sam Page The Subdivision Ordinance requires street trees to be not less than one ( 1) tree for each forty (40) feet of street frontage. On the other hand, the Zoning Ordinance requires that one street tree be planted for every thirty ( 30) lineal feet. 4th Ward Laura Bryant Richard J. Wolkowitz In order to provide consistency in the development review process, it is recommended that the forty -foot regulation in the Subdivision Ordinance be changed to thirty feet. City Administrator Mark C. Perkins In order to make an amendment to City Code, a bill may be sponsored by the Planning and Zoning Commission, Section 26 -113 of the Zoning Ordinance. Commission will provide City Council with a recommendation, after which a formal bill will be heard before Council. Please find proposed legislation attached to this report.
