6 Public hearing opened at 5:31 p.m. Mike Lemoine 6365 Ironwood Dr., Orange, TX: Mr. Lemoine stated what we intend to do is bringing some lots that we already own together with Planning and Zoning. We have two lots that we acquired behind the attorney s office adjacent to the north side of my building that we are putting a parking lot in. We already got Planning and Zoning to approve that which is commercial property. But our purpose is this, we own that building there and it s an attorney s office right now and our intentions are to use that building in the future as like a banquet room. To do that and to be able to effectively use my alcohol license and all that stuff and for it to be able to go over there, I have to have all my lots together. That would allow me to go next door and say somebody wants mixed drinks with whatever their occasion, I can do that too. It just makes it easier on me instead of paying five or six different bills on taxes, I have one big bill. In the future, I ll be able to, if I decide to tear down the building and rebuild it. I will have the area that I need to do it and won t be crossing any property lines which is a very distinct possibility. All the exits for this proposed parking lot we are doing are all going to come out the same exit that we have right now that is already there. Nothing is going to be exiting out on 17 th Street corridor. Some of them thought it was going to exit there, but no there is going to be a fence solid across there and the exits that we have already are going to be the same ones. Everything will be re-fenced, appropriate lighting put up, landscaping, new stops so they can t damage the fence anymore, parking places will be bigger and easier for people to egress in and out of the parking lot. Currently the part of the parking lot which comes off of Link Street there are two rows of cars in the middle and it is too small for that. We are going down to one row down the middle so that we will be able to move through this parking lot a lot easier. That is one of the things that my parking lot has been so congested over the years, I had to do something to open it up. I think we are going to add thirty-eight spaces after we lose these ten spaces here. Council Member Salter asked if the driveway if there is an extension that goes behind that other place that is being remodeled. Does that driveway go behind there or only behind the attorney s office? Mr. Lemoine stated it is only behind the attorney s office and actually it overlaps behind the radiator shop but there is going to be a fence there coming in off of 16 th Street. The only place that you are going to come in off of 16 th Street in my parking lot is right there in front of the building. That spot is there now and that is the only spot that you will be able to come into in front of the building. Commissioner Worlow asked how the parking is going to change in the front of your business now. Mr. Lemoine stated in front of my business it s not going to change. Commissioner Worlow asked if it meets our code requirements. Mr. Knauf stated yes. Commissioner Worlow stated it is tight in there. Mr. Lemoine stated yes it is right now but eventually if I ever tear it down, I can take and move the building back farther off of the parking lot and be able to landscape it a lot better and it will look a lot better for the City in another hot issue people are talking about with the way 16 th Street looks and trying to beautify it more. If I do tear down this building, it will enable me to actually do that because I will be able to push it back and more space up front and more parking in the front. 2 Page 6 of 91

7 Council Member Salter asked if you would be able to utilize the attorney s office also. Mr. Lemoine stated yes, that is my building also and we have about seven spaces there. There is an entrance to this lot off of 16 th Street also. Mayor Pro-Tem Pullen stated he has two questions. If so and how many handicapped spaces will you have. Mr. Lemoine stated if he remembers correctly, it is five. There will be five. Two that are in same that they are now by entrance to building and four spaces. Mayor Pro-Tem Pullen asked how far that will be. Mr. Lemoine stated when you get out of your car about twenty feet or so and probably another fifteen feet. Mayor Pro-Tem asked is that five adding or five total. Mr. Lemoine stated five adding, seven total. Mayor Pro-Tem Pullen stated his second question is that he has been going to Spanky s for twenty years and at least seventy-five percent of the time when we go in the evenings you have to wait because you are packed. You have an occupancy limit and by not expanding the building and adding all that parking where you are already limited on customers, what are you going to do for that. Mr. Lemoine stated as you heard me say this building here is going to end up being a banquet hall and order to have a banquet hall for like the Kiwana s Club to meet or Lion s Club, City Council or anybody that wants to have a group of say twenty-thirty people that want to eat, we can rent this building out to them. We will set up tables and chairs and catered hall. Mayor Pro-Tem stated he is referring to your regular customers on how you are going to seat them in the same restaurant. Mr. Lemoine stated he has been there for thirty years and has had times when those parking lots have been full and the donut place next door has been full and the radiator shop has been full and I still have empty seats in my restaurant. Sometimes I do have a wait but generally my wait at most is usually twenty-five or thirty minutes. I don t think I ve ever had an hour wait. Council Member Childs stated he is just trying to alleviate the parking problem. They have even had to park over at Kroger s before. Mr. Lemoine stated not only that but I can t tell you how many times my customers have me rewind video because that parking lot is so congested and they get their cars hit. It is just not a good situation for me because I feel a little bit of responsibility for that happening because I don t have enough parking. Commissioner Mortimer asked Mr. Knauf all these lots that we have currently are coded for commercial purposes. Mr. Knauf stated yes they are all zoned commercial-special. Commissioner Mortimer stated so all the request is to combine it into one lot instead of multiple lots. Mr. Knauf stated yes. Council Member Childs asked when it was zone commercial. Mr. Knauf stated he isn t sure when it was but long before I got here. Mr. Lemoine stated it was approximately twenty years ago. Council Member Childs stated not to sidetrack but he is doing what needs to be done all down 16 th Street. Vice Chair Wilson asked if the attorney building is empty. Mr. Lemoine stated no presently he is renting it out to Michael Catt. He was there when I bought the building and I let him know when I bought it what my intentions down the road. I really haven t been able to do anything until I get 3 Page 7 of 91

8 this done. Vice Chair Wilson asked once you deem him not worthy to rent we want to move into this banquet hall, that building is not going to sit derelict. Mr. Lemoine stated no as a matter of fact we will probably give it a little face lift. Chairman Smith asked when you plan on starting construction on the parking lot. Mr. Lemoine stated actually we have already started. We tore the houses down that were on the two lots behind the attorney s office. We had to take out two hundred some loads of dirt because the dirt on that property was so bad and bring in sand to replace it with and pack it down. After we got all that down, here comes the rain and it hasn t stopped yet. Troy Ellis is my contractor and I talked to him about a week ago and he said he is ready. We just need to get the weather to cooperate. Chairman Smith asked for any other comments/questions. None were made. Mayor Pro-Tem Pullen adjourned the City Council at 5:43 p.m. DISCUSSION/ACTION ITEMS a. Case 18:08.

91 MEMORANDUM To: From: Subject: Mayor and City Council Kelvin Knauf, Interim City Manager Discussion and possible action regarding allowing of parking, use and occupancy of recreational vehicles and travel trailers on residential property as temporary housing by property owners while damage to property caused by Hurricane Harvey is being repaired Date: February 6, 2019 On September 11, 2018 the City Council directed that the prohibition against living in residential vehicles and travel trailers on residential property be waived until February 28, 2019 so long as the property was damaged during Hurricane Harvey and repairs would be made. I recently learned from a representative of the General Land Office that FEMA will allow people to continue to live in the FEMA trailer so long as they pay rent from March 1, 2019 until August 25, The City Council will need to discuss and provide direction as to whether or not to continue allowing residents to live in a recreational vehicle or travel trailer while their home is being repaired due to Hurricane Harvey.
