Board of Aldermen Presentation 11/11/13dangrossman
This document discusses a proposal by Maryville University to re-zone land for the relocation of athletic fields and construction of a large maintenance facility. While the proposal is being presented as relocating athletic fields, it would also involve building a massive maintenance building, large gravel maintenance yard for activities like fuel storage, and a 186-space lighted parking lot. The size and industrial nature of the proposed maintenance building and yard are inconsistent with the residential neighborhood and goals in the city's comprehensive plan. There are also concerns about increased traffic, public safety due to chemical storage near a floodplain, and noise/light pollution impacts. The document argues the proposal does not satisfy the criteria for re-zoning and should not be approved.
