6. New Business/Public Hearing
Case No. P22002 – 2400 Block of Industrial Drive, Rezoning from M-2 to C-2 and Final
Subdivision Plat Request filed by BAM Holdings, LLC, property owner, for a rezoning of 5.21 5.27
acres from M-2 General Industrial to C-2 General Commercial and a four lot subdivision plat. The
purpose of the request is to divide the property into four lots to accommodate different developments
and align the zoning boundary along the lot lines so that the property can contain commercial
operations in the four proposed lots. The property is located on the south side of Industrial Drive 1200
feet east Jaycee Drive and is described as part of the Southwest Quarter of Fractional Section 2,
Township 44 North, Range 12 West, Jefferson City, Missouri (Central Missouri Professional Services,
Consultant)
Ms. Bliss stated the property consists of 5.27 acres, rezoning most of the property from an industrial
oriented zoning designation to a zoning district intended to foster general and light-to-medium intensity
commercial operations. It is requested to enable the long-term goals and desired future uses of the
property by the owner, to better align with the surrounding zoning as well as nearby uses, the zoning
code (notably Section 35-28 Matrices of permitted, conditional and special exception use land uses
and classification of uses not listed), and the recently adopted City of Jefferson Comprehensive Plan.
The rezoning does not involve the entire subject property as the southwest corner of the subject
property (also southern and over one-half part of proposed lot one, separating the existing Mel’s Café
from the building containing automobile oriented ventures) remain under a M-2 designation in order to
accommodate existing and possible future automobile focused entities (please refer to supporting
Case P22002 visuals). In addition to a request for rezoning, a subdivision plat for the property was
submitted. The final subdivision plat would result in four lots from existing three lots. The major change
would be that the central lot would be divided, deriving lot 2 from the western half as well as
southeastern half and then producing the proposed lot 3 from the northeastern half of the currently
existing central lot.
Mr. Paul Sampson 2500 East McCarty Street, Central Missouri Professional Services stated that he is
representing the owner of Mel’s who recently acquired the lots. In order to do the changes that he
would like to make, he needs to have the area rezoned to commercial property. The property would be
split into 4 separate lots, old Mel’s and tow company, new Mel’s and retail shop, dry cleaner and
outdoor supply store. He stated they have supplied plans to the City for the proposed projects.
Submitted a sidewalk deferral request. Once subdivision and rezoning are completed they will submit
individual site plans for each parcel and extending utilities as needed.
Mr. Wade stated that stormwater will be looked at on individual bases as the lots are developed. A
main is being proposed to service the sewer for all four properties. Streetlights are already present,
and a utility easement is proposed. Staff recommends the approval of the request.
Ms. Bliss stated that staff recommends approval of the request to rezone the property’s 5.27 acres of
the total 5.96 acres from M-2, General Industrial to C-2, General Commercial. The proposed rezoning
would be compatible with the Future Land Use Map of the adopted Comprehensive Plan and adjacent
uses and is positioned for general commercial uses.
Ms. Bliss stated that staff recommends approval of the proposed Final Subdivision Plat. Subject to
technical comments on the plat document identified by staff. The plat appears to demonstrates the
capacity to fulfill requirements of both subdivision plats and applicable zoning regulations.
Ms. Cotten moved and Ms. Fretwell seconded a motion to approve a recommendation for approval to
the City Council of the request to rezone the property, consisting of 5.27 acres, from M-2, General
Industrial to C-2, General Commercial.
The motion passed 8-0 with the following votes:
Aye: Quigg, Cotten, Deeken, Dutoi, Markus, Fretwell, Hawk and Moore
Nay: None
Ms. Cotten moved and Ms. Fretwell seconded the motion for approval of recommendation for approval

Case No. P22003 – 818 Montana Street; Small Wireless Facility Right-of-Way Special Exception
Permit. Request filed by AT&T Mobility, applicant, for a Special Exception Permit for placement of a
new small cellular wireless installation on a new pole within a RS-4 Single Family Residential zoning
district. The property is located on public street right of way on the northeast corner of the intersection
of Montana Street and Pike Street. (Black & Veatch, consultant).
Ms. Bliss explained the applicant wishes to place a new small cellular wireless facility on a new pole in
a residential zoning district within public right-of-way. This request to install telecommunication
equipment involves the applicant’s desire to expand coverage provided by these types of
telecommunication installations. Ability to erect such units would need approval for a Small Wireless
Facility Right-of-Way Special Exception Permit and comply with City Code of the City of Jefferson
requirements such as those outlined in Section 35-42 and Section 35-73.
Mr. Joe Markus, 16305 Swingley Ridge Rd., Chesterfield MO 63017 with Black and Veatch presented
the case. He stated they use the small towers for better coverage and capacity. Engineers study maps
to see where the areas with low coverage are.
Ms. Bliss stated that staff recommends approval for a Special Exception Permit.
Ms. Fretwell moved and Mr. Dutoi seconded a motion for recommendation for approval to the City
Council of the requested Small Wireless Facility Right-of-Way Special Exception Permit.
The motion passed 7-0 with the following votes:
Aye: Quigg, Cotten, Deeken, Dutoi, Fretwell, Hawk and Moore
Nay: None
