INVOCATION/PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE:

Invocation was given by Lamar Green, Daphne Fire Department Chaplain.

PROCLAMATION: Municipal Clerk’s Week

Candace Antinarella, City Clerk, was presented a Proclamation proclaiming May 6-12, 2018 as Municipal Clerk’s Week in the City of Daphne. The Proclamation was read by Council President Conaway on behalf of Mayor Haygood and the Daphne City Council.

PRESENTATION: Daphne Elementary School Student Government Association Jonathan Ellis, Principal of Daphne Elementary School, introduced the school’s Student Government Association (SGA) students who gave a presentation on the SGA’s activities this year and the school’s Leader in Me efforts. Mr. Ellis gave background information on Leader in Me and thanked the Council for its continued support. Council President Conaway thanked Mr. Ellis and staff for their efforts to implement this program and mentioned that Councilman Coleman’s daughter is the treasurer of this SGA. Councilman Coleman said he is proud of all of the young women in the SGA. Councilman LeJeune said Mr. Ellis has done a great job implementing the Leader in Me program; W.J. Carroll is holding its first Leader in Me Leadership Day this week which is a testament to Mr. Ellis’ efforts. Mr. Ellis said Mrs. Stephano, SGA sponsor, has done a wonderful job this year and has helped to guide the children. PUBLIC HEARING: Re-zone of the WPNVA, LLC, Jay-E, LLC, John White-Spunner & Chester J. Stephan property located at the southeast corner of US Highway 98 & Johnson Road.

B.J. Lyon, property owner, appeared before the Council and gave details on the property and proposed re-zoning to B-2, General Business. He gave details on the zoning of the surrounding property where he said there are approximately 135 B-2 parcels on each side of Highway 98. He said this piece of property is an outlier in that it is not zoned B-2. Mr. Lyon said it is the job of the Council to treat all property owners fairly and equitably under the law.

Council President Conaway opened the public hearing at 6:53 p.m.

Dorothy Williams, 126 Valrie Lane, read a letter of opposition from Bob Patterson, 711 Cedar Drive, who is unable to attend tonight’s meeting. Mr. Patterson’s main concerns with the potential redevelopment are additional traffic, loitering and crime.

Elease Powe, 1306 Warren Drive, spoke in opposition to the proposed re-zoning. She said Daphmont is an old neighborhood and the residents value the spacious lots, peace and quiet environment. She said residents understand that change is inevitable, but they want it to be better, not worse.

Jewel Lawson, 1001 Lawson Road, spoke in opposition to the proposed re-zoning. She said the corner of Highway 98 and Johnson Road is a main entrance to Daphmont and development on this corner could negatively impact residents’ lives. She cited the neighborhood’s historical status, safety concerns and a lack of adequate infrastructure. Ms. Johnson gave examples of several nearby properties which are not zoned B-2. She requested a traffic study before any consideration of re-zoning this property.

Anthony Sampson, 800 Daphmont Drive, spoke in opposition to the proposed re-zoning. He said he would like to find a win-win solution for the business owners and the residents. He said residents want to preserve the area. Change is inevitable, but they would like to see positive change and reasonable solutions. He asked that the Council use its authority, and the authority entrusted in their appointed Commissions, to do the right thing and listen to the voices being impacted.

Michael Hobbs, 706 Daphmont Drive, spoke in opposition to the proposed re-zoning. Mr. Hobbs said the citizens of Daphmont see the potential development of a gas station at this location as a safety hazard and stressed his concern with the sale of alcohol. He said the builder is from Louisiana and is not a local registered voter or a local taxpayer. Mr. Hobbs said the residents see this as an attack on their community. There being no further requests to speak, the public hearing was closed at 7:10 p.m.

MOTION by Councilman Rudicell to suspend the rules and allow the Council to vote on Ordinance 2018-20 (Re-zone of the WPNVA, LLC, Jay-E, LLC, John White-Spunner & Chester J. Stephan

property located at the southeast corner of US Highway 98 & Johnson Road) at this meeting rather than the May 21, 2018 meeting, due to the anticipated absences of several Council members.

Seconded by Councilman Goodlin.

Roll Call Vote:

MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.

Councilman LeJeune asked Adrienne Jones, Planning Director, if there is any kind of site plan for this property. Ms. Jones replied there is not; no site plan or proposed use has been submitted. Councilman LeJeune asked Ms. Jones for historical background regarding why the corners are zoned B-2, including one with a residential house, but not the vacant lot on the opposite side. Ms. Jones said this was probably done at the time that zoning was established in 1987 at the recommendation of the South Alabama Regional Planning Commission, which at the time was the consultant for the City of Daphne.

6. MAYOR’S REPORT:

Mayor Haygood was not present.

7. CITY ATTORNEY REPORT:

MOTION by Councilman Scott to authorize the City Attorney to make a formal offer of purchase on the property located at 706 Belrose Avenue for full market value as was previously determined by the

appraisal for use by the City for public purposes and if the offer is rejected to proceed with the statutory condemnation process. Seconded by Councilman Davis.

Councilman Rudicell said the way this motion is written, it is one or the other. It leaves out additional options which were previously discussed.

Councilman LeJeune said as he reads it, the motion is purely based on public need for additional parking. He doesn’t think it has any bearing on what has happened in the past; it is purely whether the Council feels this is necessary for the public need.

Councilman Davis said he thinks if the City Attorney follows through with the proposed action, the owner could either agree with, or offer some sort of compromise, and if not, the Council could then move forward and show they have done everything in their power to address all of the possibilities.

Councilman Scott said the issue is whether they have a need for additional public parking. He referenced the number of tonight’s meeting attendees and said this is the third overflow meeting in the last month. He said City Hall is also used for a lot of other public events and there is not adequate parking.

Councilman LeJeune asked Jay Ross, City Attorney, if more formalities are still needed after this motion should the Council choose to proceed with condemnation. Mr. Ross said at the last meeting, the Council charged the Mayor with trying to find a fair market value solution with the owner of the property, which was not successful. He said he could draft a letter that meets the statutory formalities, but this would further the process. 6

10. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION:

Public Participation was opened at 7:30 p.m.

Maurice Horsey said he is a candidate for House District 96 but he is here this evening as a volunteer officer of the Ruff Wilson Youth Organization, formerly known as the Boys and Girls Club. Mr. Horsey gave background information on the Ruff Wilson Youth Organization. He described the organization’s strategic planning process and stressed the importance of adapting to meet current needs. A new Board of Directors has been approved; a new mission statement has been adopted; and pending Board leadership, staffing and program improvements are being addressed. He thanked the City Council for providing support to this organization and said he hopes they continue to provide this support.

Dr. Barry Booth, 7210 Chapman Street in Montrose, said it is his understanding that a reconsideration of the vote that was taken a few weeks ago regarding Veterans Pointe would be out of order. He said he is concerned about making the “front door of Daphne” the welcoming place the Council wants it to be and, by virtue of it being named Veterans Point, serve the veterans community in the best possible manner. Mr. Booth said in the April Buildings and Property Committee meeting, he was not allowed to present an alternative to what was designed and promoted for Veterans Pointe. He is wondering if the City Attorney may make an opinion on whether this would be grounds for reconsideration of this vote by the City Council.

Dorothy Morrison, 26197 Via del San Francesco, said she first noticed the hand statue in early 2016. She thought it was beautiful and should be in a better location. She set up a meeting with Richard Johnson and Dr. Booth and asked Dr. Booth if there was any interest in moving the statue to the KFC hill. Ms. Morrison said Dr. Booth was interested and met with several Beautification Committee members and Councilman Lake. She said they thought they had a simple plan to move the statue and add greenery around it. The Council was involved in discussion and the area was named Veterans Pointe. Somehow there has become a lot of confusion between the Council, Dr. Booth and the bank. She said she would like to see this be resolved in an amicable way so the beautiful statue can go in this location.

Rod Drummond, Ridgewood Drive, said he is concerned about the proposed re-zone of the Bertolla Properties, LLC property. Mr. Drummond said he counted 15 or 16 ponds in the plans for the Jubilee Farms subdivision. He questioned who would be maintaining the drainage ponds once the contractor leaves. He is also concerned that this subdivision is to be built in pieces.

Motion by Councilman Scott to appoint Councilman Rudicell as the City of Daphne’s alternate voting delegate at the 2018 Alabama League of Municipalities Convention in Montgomery on May 19-22, 2018.

Seconded by Councilman Goodlin.

MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 12. COUNCIL COMMENTS:

Councilman Davis said he thought the Council was going to discuss Veterans Pointe at tonight’s meeting. The entrance to Bayfront Park occurs at the Veteran’s Pointe location and for the City to create a venue there, would be very dangerous. He thought the Council was going to re-visit this at tonight’s meeting and apologized to Dr. Barry Booth for being mistaken. He believes they are going down a very inappropriate road to recognize our veterans in a venue. He said he is not against the bank, but he unaware of the construction of a three-story ATM at this location. He apologized for not bringing this forward in a different way, but it bothers him terribly. Councilman Davis also commented on the Council voting with big crowds in attendance. Everybody votes according to their opinion and he respects that. He referenced the property at the corner of Highway 98 and Johnson Road which was voted on at tonight’s meeting and said property rights matter.

Councilman Rudicell said during the Planning Commission meeting (regarding the above referenced proposed property re-zoning), it was discussed and recommended to the developer to re-zone the property B-1 in lieu of B-2. He was prepared to follow the recommendation of the Planning Commission, but the developer did not agree to this.

Councilman LeJeune Aye Councilman Davis Aye Council President Conaway Aye

Councilman Coleman said he echoes Councilman Davis’ thoughts with regards to the vote. He encouraged Ms. Lawson to consider re-zoning her property from Business to Residential to solidify the argument (from the residents) that this area is the entrance to Daphmont.

Councilman Goodlin said he had planned to propose a motion to reconsider requesting M&M Bank to withdraw the current plan to construct Veterans Pointe Project (from the April 2, 2018 City Council Meeting). He realizes that his vote was in error and he told Dr. Booth this. He feels the Council has evolved in their opinions after speaking with Dr. Booth but he isn’t sure how to stop it at this point.

Mr. Ross said the motion made at the previous meeting had no legal impact on what M&M Bank could do. Had the motion passed, the result would have been the Bank deciding what it wants to do from a business and legal standpoint.

If the motion to reconsider had been approved at this meeting, it would have no legal impact on what the bank can or should do; it may have some political influence, but no legal impact. He isn’t sure, from a legal point of view, what can be done.

Councilman LeJeune said he is very excited that they awarded the bid for the Park Drive facility. It is going to be a great place for the kids to go and play.

Councilman Davis said the Council will not meet before Mother’s Day and asked everyone to remember their mothers.
