He Wanted to Wait For Pagano’s Vote<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

By Carol Arnett<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Florissant City Council got into a sometimes heated debate over a proposed bill that would allow the Rowles Company to change the plan for the residential design development at 2315, 2355, and 2375 Charbonier Road, across from Koch Park. The development, Park Side Estates, was originally approved as a Residential Design Development.<\/p>\n

Rowles has asked the city to allow smaller homes than those originally approved. The plan for the development was originally a subdivision of single family homes with approximately 1600 square feet, retailing for approximately $170,000. The changes requested called for homes as small as 1200 square feet, selling for $140,000.<\/p>\n

At a previous meeting, Rowles representative Scott Paul said that the request was made because there are currently only four homes in the subdivision and Rowles still owns two of them.<\/p>\n

Mayor Tom Schneider addressed the council on the issue. He noted that some on the council never wanted the project. \u201cWith all due respect to those who never wanted it,\u201d he said, \u201cit should move forward.\u201d He said that the square footage still exceeded the average in the community. \u201cThey are reducing the size, not the quality.\u201d<\/p>\n

Councilman John Grib disagreed. \u201cI am opposed to this,\u201d he said. \u201cThe Planning and Zoning Commision (P and Z) has denied this twice.\u201d Grib also added that he did not think the changes were minor. \u201cA 25 percent or more reduction, to me, is not a minor change.\u201d<\/p>\n

Councilman Mark Schmidt pointed out that the worst case scenario if the change was approved was a subdivision of 1200 square foot houses. \u201cIf we do nothing, the area stays vacant.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe should not get in the habit of overriding P and Z,\u201d Grib countered.<\/p>\n

After a motion to postpone the bill failed in a 4-4 tie, Schneider had harsh words for the council. Councilwoman Jackie Pagano was absent due to a family illness, and Schneider said the council should have waited for her to vote on the bill.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very alarmed that four members of the council are highjacking this,\u201d he said. \u201cYou are taking advantage of a member being gone by not postponing this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

After the move to postpone the bill failed, the council voted against the bill, with only Schmidt and Keith Schildroth voting for the bill.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
