City Manager Kenny Martin explained there had been a slight oversight where a

small sliver of land was not included in the Real Estate Committee’s previous

review. He stated that he believed the Board of Commissioners should have an

opportunity to determine whether or not to include it. In his opinion, the value for the

sliver of land should be increased.

Commissioner Giles asked for clarification regarding the sliver of land and whether

it included a Public Access Easement.

Applicant Tulsi Patel stated that the 10-foot path would remain in place and may

shift slightly. She confirmed there would be a Public Access Easement and

explained that while the developer would maintain it, the City would still have

access and use of it. Ms. Patel also provided reasoning behind the appraisal.

Commissioner Giles clarified with City Attorney Burnett that the Real Estate

Committee did not have access to the appraisal when the matter was originally

presented to the Commission.

Discussion was held regarding the public access areas and clarification of what

portions would remain open to the public.

Commissioner Milele spoke on the history of the sliver of land, stating it was

originally purchased as right-of-way. She said she was unsure whether the parcel

was beneficial to the City and expressed support for the agreement.

Commissioner Hefner stated he viewed the matter as a savings to the citizens,

noting that the City has no current plans for a fire department in that area and that

the agreement makes sense. He expressed support for the proposal.

Vice Mayor Trivett stated that land is limited in Tennessee and expressed concern

that the City should preserve what it owns.

Mayor Maness stated that he had been encouraging City Manager Martin to move

forward with selling the property for some time due to the ongoing maintenance

costs. He said the development was a great concept but noted that some

operational aspects of previous restroom facilities had presented issues. He added

that the offer presents an opportunity for a significant development.

City Manager Martin stated he was excited about the development and the

elimination of ongoing costs for the City, and that he supported the agreement.

A motion was made by Mayor Maness to modify Paragraph 28 to include the

easements, specifying that all greenways, restrooms, and associated parking areas

be identified as “trailhead parking” and included as a Public Access Easement.

Seconded by Commissioner Milele.

Vote: yea unanimous.

Engineering Director Shane Shamanur stated that the contribution would be applied

at the time of the issuance of the erosion control permit.

Commissioner Hefner stated that the stoplight shall be constructed and built within

90 days after the issuance of the first Certificate of Occupancy and that the light

must be operational. He further stated that 100% of the cost of the traffic signal

would be credited toward the developer’s voluntary contributions.

The Letter of Credit amount will include the total cost of the traffic signal.

Commissioner Giles seconded the motion.

Vote yea unanimous.

Back on as 1x amended.

Commissioner Hefner made a motion to install guardrails in designated areas as

defined by the Public Works Department along East Division within the City limits.

The applicant would be responsible for installing the proper safety guardrails as

approved by Public Works, and the cost of the guardrails would be credited back to

the developer’s voluntary contributions. Vice Mayor Trivett seconded the motion.

City Traffic Engineer Todd Serbent requested adding that the total guardrail length

be 3,000 linear feet; there were no objections. Mr. Serpent also requested that the

paragraph below from McFarland Farms be included for consistency; there were no

objections.

"For the offsite improvements, the developer will make all due diligence to acquire

the necessary easements or right-of-way. If unsuccessful after 120 days of due

diligence, the City of Mt. Juliet agrees to proceed with the public acquisition process

in order to facilitate the attainment of said easements or right-of-way including, if

necessary, the imminent domain process as the improvements in question are

necessary to the health, safety, and welfare of the general public. The easements

or right-of-way will be based on an appraisal and a review appraisal by state

licensed appraisers and such appraisal will be shared with the City of Mt. Juliet. All

expenses including easements, acquisition services, appraisals, etc. will be at the

expense of the developer."

Commissioner Milele stated she would prefer that the funds go toward the future

widening project, as the guardrails would ultimately be removed when that occurs.

Commissioner Hefner responded that the City does not currently have funds

allocated for widening. Public Works Director Matt White noted that the City will

pursue grant funding for the widening project.

Commissioner Milele proposed capping the contribution at $500,000, stating that if

the cost exceeds that amount, the guardrails should not be installed. Commissioner

Giles seconded the amendment.

Commissioner Hefner stated he preferred that if the cost exceeds the cap, the

matter come back to the Board for consideration rather than being automatically

stopped. The Board agreed that any such consideration would occur by separate

resolution. There were no objections.

Vote yea unanimous.

Commissioner Milele made a motion to add this requirement as Public Works

Condition #33. Commissioner Giles seconded the motion.

Vote yea unanimous.

Back on as 4x amended.

drive-thru component, noting that it would primarily operate during morning hours. He

stated he was willing to extend a buffer zone between the development and the

adjacent neighborhood to address concerns.

Discussion was held regarding traffic impacts related to the proposed development.

Vice Mayor Trivett noted the importance of communication with nearby residents, and

Mr. Powers stated he would be happy to meet with them.
