4.PUBLIC HEARINGS
A.CONSIDERATION OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND SITE PLAN TO
ADD A DRIVE-UP TO THE BANK FACILITY IN THE PARKING LOT
LOCATED AT 210 HASSAN ST SE.
Craig Almquist, Mid Country Bank, gave a statement of what the plans are for the
drive-up bank and why the bank would like to build the drive-up in this location.
Mr. Jochum presented to the board the staff report and findingsof the planning
staff. He spoke about the land swap of the property with the City of Hutchinson.
And indicated that the land swap would bepending on the approval of the site and
conditional use permit.He then showed a demonstrativemap from the engineer
report of the traffic flow for the drive-up bank. He also stated that a member of
City staff observed the traffic flow at the south bank location to see the “stacking”
of vehicles and business of the location. It appeared that there was never a time
of more than 2 cars lined up. Mr. Jochum also explained the dynamics and layout
of the traffic flow that the medians would not be a curb, but painted lines on the
ground.
CommissionerNorton questions the traffic flowon the East side of the parking lot
with cars exiting the drive-upand making a left turnonto Hassan St., he suggested
to turnrightafter the drive-up and go through the parking lot and exit in the center
of the lot to the east. Mr. Jochum and Mr. Exner stated that it may be hard to
make a quick right turn right after exiting the drive-up. Mr. Exner stated that the

situation is not ideal, but not much different than it is to date. Mr. Exner
suggested that wecouldtry the proposed site plan and make changes in the future
if we need to.
Robert Sanstede, ownerof 209 Hassan St SE. questionedif we will be losing
parking on Hassan St. Mr. Jochum and Mr.Exner stated that it will not.
Mr. Jochum explained the parking situation in the lot. With the proposal the lot
will lose 21spaces, but with a recent observation the overall utilization of the lot
will not be affected. There is also “private” parking that is used presently by the
public. Mr. Jochum also showed a map of all the public parking available within
350 ft.,as it might be at a location such as Walmart. There is also discussion
about Mid Country Bank employees parking in other City lots. It was mentioned
that there is parking under the bank but Mr. Almquistwould prefer not to use
them as they are tight.
Mr. Jochum stated that the planning staff found it difficult to either recommend or
deny the request of Mid Country Bank. The staff broke it down to pro’s and
con’s. Staff decidedpresent to the board and let the board make their own
decision.
CommissionerJohnston also questioned if traffic could flow to the right after the
exit of the drive-up and bringing back more parking lots. Mr. Exner gave his
explanationof why the proposed site plan seems to be the best option.
CommissionerFahey questioned if we are missing an opportunity with the
business buildings on the east part of the blockbeing for sale. Maybe turning
those areas into more parking. He also mentioned the Human Scale that is
mentioned in the Imagine Hutchinson Plan. Mr. Jochum answered that by stating
that neither the City of Hutchinson norMid Country Bankare interested in
purchasing that propertyat this point. He also stated that as far as the Human
Scale goes we first need to bring the people downtown.
Mr. Almquist brought up the idea of having more parking where the ATM is
currently located.
There was more discussion of the properties for sale on the east side of the block
and making more parking.
Mr. Fahey asked if the drive-up could run on the east side of the lot and enter and
exit off of Hassan St. The answer was the distancefrom the building to the drive-
upbeing too far awaybecause the tellers will be located within the current bank.
Commissioner Faheymoved to close the public hearing, second by Commissioner
Johnston. Public hearing closed at 6:32pm.
Mr. Fahey made a motion to deny this Site Plan and CUP but not the project,
second by Mr. Johnston. Motion carried unanimously.

Land Use Plan:Medium Density Residential Neighborhood
Zoning History:Originally platted as Ravenwood 11/16/1999 in the R-3 Zoning District
Applicable
Regulations:City Code of Ordinances Sections153.35–153.51
Transportation:The property will be accessed off of Bluejay Drive SW and Blackhawk Drive SW.
Physical Characteristics:The subdivision had been previously developed for multi-family housing and was not
built on. The current grading on the site will work well for the proposed development.
The private street to the rear of the five lots is going to be removed.
Analysis:
The preliminary and final plats as presented appear to meet the requirements of the subdivision and zoning ordinances.
The minimum lot area for this district (R-3) is 7,200 square feet and the smallest lot proposed is 8,060 square feet and the
largest is 11,489 square feet. All of the lot sizes appear to be appropriate and consistent with the zoning ordinance.
Utilities will be located in the rear yard of the five proposed lots. This is due to the previous subdivision design. The
existing private street will be removed and the drainage and utility easement in this location will remain allowing for the
utilities to access the homes from the rear. This will also minimize the need to need to dig into the existing street in the
front of the homes to make utility connections which is a positive for the City. Storm sewer lines are in place and the
drainage flows tothe existing stormwater pond to the southwest.
Lastly, it is important to note that the Airport Zoning District just barely encroaches into lot one. There is approximately
270 square feet of lot one contained in the Airport Zoning District –zone A. Anything designated Zone A cannot have
buildings built on the portion that is Zone A. The portion that is designated zone A would not be buildable per the Zoning
Ordinance anyways, because much of it is within a drainage and utility easement and the portion that is out of the
drainage and utility easement is not a buildable portion of the lot because setbacks could not be meet. Because of this
information, Staff feels that this Plat would not impact the Airport zone A.

Site Plan:
The City Council deems it is necessary and appropriate to require site plan approval of developments in certain
zoning districts to preserve and promote attractive, well-planned, stable urban conditions. The following is an
overview of site plan considerations.
Buildings:
There are 10 buildings being proposed for this project. Each building will include 12units for a total of 120
units and each unit will be two bedrooms.The buildings will be phased in over time based on demand and the
plan is to start construction of 2 or 3 building in the fall of 2014if possible. The buildings are twostories and
are approximately 30feet highas defined by the building height definition in the zoning ordinance.The
buildings are each approximately 60 x 130 feet in size or 7,800square feet.Refer to attached building
elevations for more information. The proposed building would meet all applicable setbacks, as well as all other
Zoning Ordinance requirements.
Each unit must have 3,000 square feet of lot area on the site in order to meet the requirements of the zoning
ordinance. The site is 373,309 square feet in size. The 120 units require 360,000 square feet in order to meet
the zoning requirement which is consistent with the ordinance.
Open space is also an important aspect of a multi-family project such as this. The zoning ordinance requires
20% open space in the development, which equates to 74,662 square feet of open space. The development as
proposed conservatively features 76,433 square feet of open space. It should be noted that the open space does
not take into accountany of the parking lot/drive areas or ponding areas because these are not considered usable
open space.
Site Plan Review and Rezoning
875 Century Ave. SW
Planning Commission –8-19-14
Page 3
Parking/Access/Circulation
309parking spaces are shown on the site plan, which is the greater than the 300 parking spaces required for this
project.There is one garage for each unit and one driveway for each unit, which equates to 240 parking stalls
and there is an additional 69 off-street parking for visitors for a total of 309 parking stalls.
Access from the site will be from Century Ave SW, Cleveland Ave. SW, and Sunset St. SW. The developer is
proposing three additional access points west of Sunset St. SW. Staff has already communicated to the
developer’s engineer that staff feels this is too many access points onto Century Ave. SW.It has been highly
recommended to the developer that the first access point west of Sunset St. SW be eliminated. Along with this,
staff suggests extending the southernmostinternal east/west drive all the way through to the next north/south
access road to create a better internal circulation pattern. This concept will be presented in more detail at the
Planning Commission Meeting. All of the other access points seem to be acceptable and make sense from an
access standpoint. It should be noted that staff has suggested the developer add one more access point in the
northwest portion of the site off of Cleveland Ave. SW in order to meet fire code so that a dead end isn’t created
that is too long.
Internal circulation on the site appears to be adequate with the above suggested changes. All of the internal
streets will be private streets. Staff has noted to the developer that the streets will need to be 24 feet wide from
back of curb to back of curb, rather than the 22 feet that is shown in the site plan. The Fire Department
indicated they would be able to get to the buildings in cases of emergency.
Landscaping and Lighting:
The Zoning Ordinance requires tree planting at a rate of 1 tree per 800 sq. ft. of landscaped area. There are 194
trees that are proposed as part of this plan. The City arborist will review the Landscape Plan at the time of
building permit to determine if the tree species are compatible in Hutchinson.
Lighting of the site appears to be adequate. Per the Zoning Ordinance, lighting installed must be indirect and
shall not produce glare on adjacent properties or public right of ways.
Stormwater Management:
City staff has already provided comments to the developer in regards to the requirements for stormwater
management. The site will drain to the proposed pond in the center of the site. Staff has reviewed the pond
calculations and they appear to be adequate.
Rezoning:
The Comprehensive Plan guides this area as medium density residential development, which is development
that is between 4 and 8 units per acre. The proposed development is 14 units per acre which is consideredhigh
density in the comprehensive plan. It should be noted that the current Century Court Apartments are a similar
density of 14 units per acre and are also in listed as medium density residential in the Comprehensive Plan. The
same goes for the Oaks and Pines Senior LivingFacility, Prairie Senior Cottages, and Woodstone Senior
Living.
The project area is currently zoned R-3 medium density residential development. The developer is proposing
the property be rezoned to R-4 high density residential development.The neighboring properties to the west,
Site Plan Review and Rezoning
875 Century Ave. SW
Planning Commission –8-19-14
Page 4
including the Oaks and Pines, Prairie Senior Cottages, and Woodstone Senior Living are all zoned R-4 High
Density Residential. The existing Century Court Apartments are zoned R-3.
Staff feels the R-4 zoning request is acceptable and fits in with the neighboring property zoning designations, as
well as the surrounding uses in this area.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the site plan and the rezoning with the following conditions of approval:
1.The access west of Sunset St. SW on Century Ave. SW is removed.
2.The southernmost east/west private street in the development shall continue west to connect to the
eastern most north/south private street in the developm
3.An access point is added to the northeast portion of the site off of Cleveland Ave. SW to alleviate
fire code issues regarding dead end streets.
4.The street widths within the development are increased from 22’ to 24’.
5.The City needs to obtain clarification from the County Environmentalist on the status of the wetland
report prepared for this site. If the County identifies any wetlands, they will have to be addressed
according to the County Environmentalist.
6.The proposed building and site improvements shall comply with the standards of the R-4 district and

RE:Consideration of Zoning Ordinance Revisions to accommodate Tap Rooms
and Brew Pubs by Conditional Use Permit in certain Zoning Districts.
Brew Pub and Tab Room Zoning Ordinance Revisions
As the Planning Commission is likely aware, the City Council has directed Staff to develop
Zoning Ordinance Amendments that would be consistent with the Council adopting an ordinance
regulating Brew Pubs and Tap Rooms. The ordinance the Planning Commission will be
reviewing will be to determine which zoning districts Brew Pubs and Tap Rooms will be allowed
in. Please see the attached ordinance for more information.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends revising the C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, and I/C Zoning districts to allow Brew Pubs
and Tap Rooms by Conditional Use Permit. In addition, Staff recommends that the I-1 district
be amended to allow Tap Rooms by Conditional Use Permit. Staff recommends not having
Brew Pubs in the I-1 district because restaurants are not a permitted use in the I-1 district.
