This transcript is for a meeting of the City Council. I have identified the speakers based on the roles provided, the roll call, and the phonetic pronunciation of names (e.g., "Vanc" for van Sluis, "Teal" for Thiele, and "Dabuya" for Doumbouya).

Spooner (Mayor):** I have a motion by van Sluis, seconded by Rowan. All those in favor signify by saying I. [1:27] **City Council Members:** I. [1:28] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** All opposed. Motion passes. Presentations, introductions—we have none tonight. Approval of the minutes of November 12th and the joint session on November 18th. [1:43] **Adama Youhn Doumbouya:** So move. [1:44] **Mandy Barnes:** Second. [1:45] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Motion by Doumbouya, second by Barnes to approve the minutes. All opposed? Those are passed. Petitions and requests to be heard—we have none. Great. [1:57] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Consent agenda items. We have 6A through 6H. Any want anything pulled or for discussion? [2:07] **Royal Ross:** Mayor Spooner, I'll make a motion to approve. Uh, the consent agenda. [2:16] **Mandy Barnes:** Second. [2:17] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Motion by Ross, seconded by Barnes. All those in favor signify. [2:23] **City Council Members:** I. [2:24] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** All opposed? Motion passes. [snorts] Public hearings tonight—we have none. Items for discussion. Our first item is the Jay-Z First Edition plat. Harry, you're going to give us this. [2:42] **Harry Davis (Planning Manager):** Yes, Mr. Mayor. Harry Davis, Planning Manager. Thank you, Mayor and Council. So the items in front of you are related to the Jazzy First Edition. It's the final plat, the developers agreement and encroachment agreement. The applicant is Nate Snder on behalf of County E LLC. They're buying it from Lampert Yards Incorporated. Location is 801 4th Street Northwest and as mentioned before it's the final plat with the developer agreement and encroachment agreement. I'm sure you guys know where the old Lampert's building used to be, but it's right next to the railroad tracks along Highway 60. [3:24] **Harry Davis (Planning Manager):** Here's the property itself. You'll notice that it's actually two parcels which is part of the reason as to why we're in front of you tonight with the final plat. You previously seen the preliminary plat for this project. Then here's the zoning of it. So it's C2 commercial. In terms of the requests tonight, the final plat is just the final step in platting the property as one. We've seen a lot of requests recently where it's combined preliminary and final plat. This is just one where they decided to do this independently. And combining the lots are going to facilitate redevelopment of this property. They do intend to keep the building as is; they just want to be able to use the interior. [4:07] **Harry Davis (Planning Manager):** The development agreement is just a supporting document to the final plat. And then the encroachment agreement would allow the existing Lampert sign that's on the property for them to be able to reuse that sign. It would be within a perimeter easement that would be recorded alongside the plat. [4:27] **Harry Davis (Planning Manager):** Here's the preliminary plat as you guys approved it not too long ago. And then here's the final plat. Really, for the final plat it's pretty straightforward in terms of its criteria. It does meet all of our criteria for our final plat. It is consistent with the preliminary plat. [4:44] **Harry Davis (Planning Manager):** And so in summary, it meets our zoning requirements. So we recommend that you approve the resolution for the final plat as well as the resolutions associated with the development agreement and the encroachment agreement. [5:05] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Are there any questions for staff? [5:12] **Royal Ross:** Mayor Spooner. [5:13] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Yes. [5:14] **Royal Ross:** I make a motion to approve resolution 2025-306. [5:22] **Peter van Sluis:** Second. [5:23] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** I have a motion by Ross, second by van Sluis. All in favor signify. [5:28] **City Council Members:** I. [5:29] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** All opposed? The motion passes. [5:32] **Peter van Sluis:** Mayor Spooner. [5:33] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Yes. [5:34] **Peter van Sluis:** I make a motion to approve resolution 2025-307. [5:40] **Chuck Thiele:** Second. [5:41] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Motion by van Sluis, second by Thiele to approve. All in favor? [5:47] **City Council Members:** I. [5:48] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** All motion pass. Item number three. [5:54] **Royal Ross:** Mayor Spooner, I make a motion to approve resolution 2025-319. [6:00] **Mandy Barnes:** Second. [6:01] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Motion seconded by Barnes on resolution. All in favor? [6:05] **City Council Members:** I. [6:06] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** All that motion passed also. Ordinance 2025-16 rezoning the property. Once again, Harry Davis, Planning Manager. [6:26] **Harry Davis (Planning Manager):** Thank you, Mayor and Council. So this is the second reading of this ordinance to rezone the Ivy Hill property. It's a second reading; nothing significant has changed about the ordinance. So we are recommending that you approve the second reading. In addition to this would be the summary publication. The summary publication requires at least five votes, but it would allow us to not reprint the entire ordinance. [6:51] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Any questions since it was last here? [6:55] **Royal Ross:** None. [6:58] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Yes, Mr. Ross. [7:00] **Royal Ross:** Make a motion to approve ordinance 2025-16. [7:05] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Motion by Ross, second by Doumbouya on ordinance 2025-16. Roll call. [7:14] **Heather Slechta (City Clerk):** Council member Barnes? [7:15] **Mandy Barnes:** Aye. [7:16] **Heather Slechta (City Clerk):** Doumbouya? [7:17] **Adama Youhn Doumbouya:** Aye. [7:18] **Heather Slechta (City Clerk):** Ross? [7:19] **Royal Ross:** Aye. [7:20] **Heather Slechta (City Clerk):** Rowan? [7:21] **John Rowan:** Aye. [7:22] **Heather Slechta (City Clerk):** van Sluis? [7:23] **Peter van Sluis:** Aye. [7:24] **Heather Slechta (City Clerk):** Thiele? [7:25] **Chuck Thiele:** Aye. [7:26] **Heather Slechta (City Clerk):** Mayor Spooner? [7:27] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Aye. Motion is passed to approve. Now the publication of the summary. [7:33] **Royal Ross:** So moved. [7:34] **Peter van Sluis:** Seconded. [7:35] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** All opposed? Motion passes. Bids—we have none. Boards and commission reports. Announcements. Anybody have anything?

Spooner (Mayor):** Break a record. [laughter] On to adjournment. Anybody would like to adjourn? [8:38] **Mandy Barnes:** I can. [8:40] **Thomas J. Spooner (Mayor):** Motioned by Barnes and seconded by Doumbouya. Meeting adjourned.
