Brentwood P&Z postpones Carboline facility infill after staff and consultants flag plan discrepancies
Summary
The Planning & Zoning Commission postponed review of Carboline Global’s facade, parking and 3,000-square-foot infill proposal at Hanley Industrial Court until Nov. 13 after staff and the city landscape consultant flagged outstanding civil/architectural discrepancies, ADA and site-plan coordination issues, and a required Board of Adjustment variance.
The Brentwood Planning & Zoning Commission on Oct. 9 voted to postpone consideration of P&Z 24019, an application from Carboline Global for facade improvements, parking-lot reconfiguration and a roughly 3,000-square-foot building infill at 350–370 Hanley Industrial Court, so the project can proceed through a required Board of Adjustment review and return with coordinated drawings.
Tyson Pyle, an architect with Arcturus who presented the application, said the project is intended to "upgrade their facility, to reinvest in their facility," describing parking reorganization to improve employee and visitor access and new space adjacent to an existing testing facility. Planning staff noted the buildings at 350 and 360 Hanley Industrial Court are nonconforming to setback requirements, and recommended the commission review but continue the item until after the Board of Adjustment acts on the variance request.
Andrew Franke, the city’s landscape reviewer from Planning Design Studio, said the petitioner's revised submittals had addressed several landscape items (including a planting plan between buildings and an irrigation note) but left other details outstanding, such as landscape treatment west of the parking field, fence cut sheets and better coordination between architectural and civil sheets for a flagstone stair connection and dumpster locations. "It looks really good to us" for some items, Franke said, but several technical details remain incomplete.
Commissioner Ralph Foreman pressed the applicant on multiple technical inconsistencies between packages—missing elevations in some submittals, bollard placements not matching elevations, unknown ramp spot elevations for ADA compliance and a mismatch on the trash/dumpster enclosure. Foreman said the documents need to be consistent before approval: "there are discrepancies between architectural and civil that are enough scope that ... I wouldn't approve because of that discrepancy." The applicant said many items had been noted and would be addressed in revised materials.
Staff also noted a public comment uploaded to BoardDocs raising concerns about potential floodwater displacement. Planning staff responded that the addition would be over existing hardscape and "therefore no storm water is required" and that a floodplain permit will be submitted as required.
Following discussion, Commissioner Bilderback moved to postpone consideration until the commission’s next full meeting; the motion was seconded and carried. Chairman confirmed the Carboline item will be held over to the Nov. 13 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting so the project can be heard by the Board of Adjustment on Oct. 24 and then return with coordinated, revised submittals.
Key details: the proposal includes an approximately 3,000-square-foot infill, a net loss of five parking spaces, and reliance on a larger nearby parking field on Hanley Industrial Court. Outstanding review items include coordinated architectural and civil drawings, elevations, detailed dumpster/enclosure drawings, ADA spot elevations and finalized landscape plans. The commission did not take final action on the application and deferred any recommendation pending the Board of Adjustment’s decision and submission of revised plans.
