FINANCE
COMMITTEE REPORT
On
April 17, 2006, the Finance Committee met to discuss the issue of a proposed
change to the Job Creation and Retention Program (JCRP).
Present from the committee were Douglas Brainard, and Todd Zimmerman and
Dave Hazard, Sheilah McAdams and John Jezak from the administration.
Also present was councilman Mike Coyle.
The issue addressed was a proposed amendment to the
JCRP to permit governmental agencies and/or non-profit organizations to be
eligible to apply for the program given that they otherwise qualify.
The reason for such an amendment was stated as the possibility of
providing an incentive to governmental or non-profit companies given the right
circumstances because by locating inside the City of Maumee, their employees
would still be subject to paying city income tax and therefore increase the tax
base. The committee was in
agreement that including such entities in the program could benefit the city.
The committee listened to possible options from the administration
regarding whether rewriting the eligibility guidelines or granting waivers was
the better route to incorporate governmental agencies and/or non-profit
organizations. Ultimately, it was
the conclusion of the committee that changing the eligibility guidelines was a
better means of achieving such a goal.
It is therefore the recommendation of the finance
committee that the JCRP guidelines be changed to permit governmental and
non-profit organizations to be eligible to apply for the JCRP provided that they
meet the other JCRP guidelines.
Respectfully submitted,
Todd
M. Zimmerman, Chair
Jenny
Barlos

LAND
USE, PLANNING & ZONING COMMITTEE REPORT
On May 11th,
2006, Land Use, Planning, and Zoning Committee met to discuss rezoning of 825
Ford St. from M-2 to C-2 of which Jeff Morrin is the owner. Present from the
committee were Tim Pauken and Todd Zimmerman. Rich Carr was not present due to a
conflict of interest. Also present were Bruce Wholf from Inspection, Jim Jones
from the Planning Commission, Linda Wilker from Administration and Jeff Morrin.
Mr. Morrin was informed that there were issues relative to the property,
and he was given an opportunity to respond to such. The primary concern was the
violation of zoning due to retail sales taking place in the M-2 Zone. He stated
he was unaware of the violations until Bruce Wholf pointed them out to him. He
indicated all tenants were informed of the zoning restrictions at the time of
lease. He also commented that the zoning was awfully strict in comparison to
other municipalities with like zoning as it deals with retail. He ultimately
admitted that there were violations, and was taking steps to become compliant.
A second issue raised with Mr. Morrin was a non-paved parking area in the
area of the parcel behind 817 and 819 Ford St.
Presently, this area has aggregate in place, but it does not contain a
hard surface in accordance with Sections 1131.11(d) and 1131.13 of the Codified
Ordinances. Parking was observed in this area by Larry Gamble, Service Director.
With there being no objections from Mr. Gamble (via memo), Mr. Wholf, and
with prior approval from the Planning Commission, this committee unanimously
recommends and moves that the zoning change from M-2 to C-2 for 825 Ford St. be
approved contingent upon the area of the parcel behind 817 and 819 Ford St.
being paved for parking purposes within thirty (30) days of legislation and that
the necessary legislation be prepared.
Respectfully submitted,
Tim Pauken, Chair
Todd Zimmerman, Member
Mr. Morrin, applicant for the zoning change, stated he would
improve the parking area as required by the code.
Mr. PAUKEN moved the necessary legislation be prepared to
authorize approval of a zoning change from
M-2 Industrial to C-2 General Commercial for three parcels
at 825 Ford Street provided that all areas are properly improved for the
intended use prior to the legislation becoming effective.
