Alex Backry of 3459 Shawnee Trail opined that there had not been adequate opportunity to review and comment on the proposed budget.

He stated that Smyrna had the highest water rate in Cobb County and that residents were being charged retail costs. Mr. Backry expressed his dissatisfaction with the city offering only one trash pick-up per week without a decrease in fees. He requested the scheduling of forums where citizens could express their opinions on the Concord Rd. project and real estate purchases conducted by the City. Mr. Backry referred to the purchases of Hickory Lakes and Smyrna Commons as examples of deliberations where he would have preferred greater citizen involvement opportunities. Alan Aycock, residing at 325 Big Ben in Sugar Hill, stated that he was representing the Cheney Woods neighborhood and provided his professional background. Mr. Aycock thanked Councilwoman Wilkinson for her attention to the issue and her attendance at meetings. He acknowledged Councilman Lnenicka, Eric Taylor and Ken Suddreth for their time as well. Mr. Aycock requested that Council remove the day nursery language form the R15 ordinance. He shared his professional opinion that the wording was atypical and the majority of communities did not allow for in excess of 60 kids in residential neighborhood without controls in place. Mr. Aycock expressed his concerns that the planning department had not asked for traffic studies related to the proposed expansion and that anyone could obtain a permit for a daycare center without a public hearing being conducted. He shared that Mr. Smith has been very forthcoming in making known his goal to acquire nine houses in the Cheney Woods community and calculated that would result in an enrollment of nearly 600 children. Mr. Aycock provided comparable examples to illustrate the projected increase in traffic to accommodate over 1200 vehicle passes per day. He noted that Mr. Taylor had commented that this was a mixed use area and acquiesced that this area incorporated integrated zoning. Mr. Aycock requested that a public hearing on this matter be held. Don Berry of 835 Flagler circle reiterated Mr. Aycock's comments and elaborated that Mr. Smith already owned 805 Flagler. He addressed the amendment adding day nurseries to the city ordinance, requesting that it be vetted by the new Council. He cited the eight stipulations included in the ordinance and noted the requirement that the facility have access to a major or minor arterial. Mr. Berry submitted that Church St. was considered a minor road and cited the county and city plans identifying it as such. He expressed concern about the changes to the amendment currently being considered and opined that the wording under consideration would cover any road in the city. He noted that there 805 Flagler did not have frontage on Church Rd. and that an adjacent 10' park boundary was being used to satisfy the requirements of the ordinance. Bonnie Berry, residing at 835 Flagler Circle, stated that her husband's family had owned that property for over 30 years. She stated her sentiment that the expansion of the daycare was an unnecessary and potentially illegal encroachment into the neighborhood. She shared her concern about an adverse affect to the property values in the neighborhood and commented that would impact the property tax revenue to the City. Ms. Berry told Council the changes would make her neighborhood's homes difficult to market and have a dramatic negative impact on the lives of residents in that community. She elaborated on the potential hardship it could cause for her property that had been completely renovated, stating that it would be difficult to recuperate improvement costs. Ms. Berry stated that the R15 zoning was too loosely written and requested that Council uphold the citizen's constitutional and due process rights by stopping the expansion and removing the day nursery clause from the ordinance. She shared that Mr. Smith had approached residents, including herself, about purchasing their homes and she asked Council to help put commercial business in commercial areas. 8 June 18,2012 Becky Roberts of 820 Flagler Circle stated that while the daycare provided a service to the community that as a commercial business it should not be allowed to expand into a residential community. She requested that the R15 ordinance remain residential only in order to avoid the conversion of communities into commercial streets. She noted that Flagler was a small, hilly road with no sidewalks, limited sight distance, speed bumps and no crosswalks. Ms. Roberts stated that the expansion of the daycare would result in 50-70 kids with 250 vehicle passes per day, elaborating that for every child there would be 4 times the amount of traffic on Flagler. She explained that the increase in traffic would occur at the same time that residents were trying to get their children to school. Ms. Roberts asked Council to consider the impact the increased traffic volume would have on the value of the homes in her neighborhood and requested that the daycare zoning be removed from the R15 ordinance Matthew Hoffberg, residing at 915 Flagler Circle, stated his agreement that Mr. Smith might be within his legal rights and in compliance with the ordinance as currently written. He requested the opportunity to kindly and respectfully remind Council of their role as servant leaders and their obligation to serve all residents. He acknowledged the professional and personal relationship some members might have with former Councilman Smith and commented that the opposition to the expansion was significant. Mr. Hoth shared that a face book page had been created for those opposed to the daycare and noted that it already had a significant number of followers. Deborah Tompkins of 789 Church St. reiterated that the issue was one of zoning a commercial business into a residential area. She opined that residents want community, not a business use. Ms. Tompkins stated that there appeared to be no boundaries or limitations on the ability to disrupt a neighborhood contemplated in the ordinance. She made known that she had looked at the amendments and her evaluation was that it was adopted in order to make a commercial enterprise compatible with a residential area. She stated her strong opposition and emphasized that the inherent rights of tax paying citizens should be upheld by the Council. The Mayor thanked all for speaking and expressed his appreciation for their involvement and input. He stated that the ordinance was being reviewed and that there was process and procedure to be followed prior to voting any changes. He recognized the efforts of Councilwoman Wilkinson on this issue. Mr. Aycock offered a procedural suggestion that Council advertise and host a public meeting with a public vote and there was a show of support from the audience. The Mayor stated that Council would receive material from staff to review and evaluate prior to any vote being cast. Mr. Aycock opined that due to the nebulous nature of the ordinance that nearly any corner lot could be subject to similar zoning use modification. The Mayor stressed that the item would be deliberated by Council ADJOURNMENT With no further business,the meeting was adjourned at 8:52 o'clock p.m. 9 June 18,2012 MOM • 410. ALeVn n ) ." A.
