For 30 the fifth grant from the NH Department of Historic Resources, consultants were hired to study 31 the mills in Lebanon. The Commission thought there were 25-27, but the consultants found 40 32 possible ones. They will reduce the number for site inspections. The next phase will be the 33 historical piece. The Fountain Working Group is working on the fountain at the Glenwood 34 Cemetery; they will use solar power, as the cemetery is only open during the day. The Rotary is 35 handling donations to this effort. The Dana House Working Group hired a consultant to look at 36 mitigation of the lead paint issue and finishing the interior; they are expecting a report in the 37 spring. Joshua Lascell is working on special projects, including the Cemetery Governance Task 38 Force. 39 40 Planning Board 41 Chair Keith Davio said new approvals include Rogers House, which is reconfiguring its parking 42 and adding spaces; the Elks Club, which separated off a parcel of their land; Hanover Investment 43 Corporation/FujiFilm, which is adding to its existing facility; Adamab, which is using an 44 adjacent parcel for overflow parking; New England Industries, which sought an addition; F.W. 45 Webb, which purchased the New Hampshire Industries building and will build a new retail/office

1 facility; Darren Carter, who created an impound yard; and Liberty Utilities, which sought 2 permission for routine tree trimming on designated scenic roads. 3 4 An extension was granted to Rock Ridge, which has started selling homes in Phase 2 and asked 5 permission to begin work on Phase 3, and a boundary line adjustment was granted to a 6 Commerce Ave. business. There were no conceptual reviews that have not yet gone to site plan 7 review. The Carter Country Club application is still open; the Board ruled that they did not have 8 enough information to determine whether it is scattered or premature. The applicant has 12 9 months to come back with more information. Study items included discussion about how to 10 update and make changes to the Master Plan, the proposed zoning changes, and the possibility of 11 a TIF district. 12 13 Conservation Commission 14 Councilor Heistad said in November, they reviewed the zoning proposals and the Etna Road 15 applications. Councilor Smith said in December, they discussed use of the Lebanon Open Spaces 16 Fund for legal work, and they looked at the wetlands mapping in the GIS system. They also 17 reviewed the proposed zoning amendments and discussed outreach to property owners regarding 18 conservation easements; there will be an open house regarding this at the Balestras. 19 20 Pedestrian & Bicyclist Advisory Committee 21 Councilor Heistad said they are analyzing pedestrian and bicycle accident data to see if they 22 correlate with specific locations and to determine if safety improvements will help. There have 23 been an average of four accidents per year. They are monitoring progress on the Mascoma River 24 Greenway, and Ms. Owens is coordinating work on the Bicycle Friendly America program. 25 Construction on the Greenway ended for the season in December; the trail is paved, and work on 26 the bridges and railings is almost complete. There are issues regarding access to the Greenway 27 on Miracle Mile. They need signage, benches, and gates, and they are working on the connection 28 to the Greenway from APD Hospital. The connection to Riverside Park also has to be worked 29 out. They are also concerned about where to run the trail through downtown. 30 31 Councilor Heistad said the Committee met with citizens regarding the West St. sidewalk 32 concerns, which include parking, snow removal, and whether there is enough room for a 33 sidewalk. He said everyone who has contacted him favors a sidewalk, and the Committee 34 recommended a two-inch curb. 35 36 Lebanon Energy Advisory Committee 37 Councilor Below distributed a summary of energy initiatives. He said the Municipal Aggregation 38 Committee discussed a proposal by Liberty Utilities for a battery storage pilot program focused 39 in West Lebanon. Utilities have been ordered to come up with more pilot programs regarding 40 distributed generation, demand response, and reduced demand. Batteries would shift the load to 41 reduce transmission charges during peak loads and help Liberty Utilities avoid expensive capital 42 upgrades. They will offer up to 5 megawatts of battery power to residential customers in West 43 Lebanon. 44 45 Councilor Below said LEAC is trying to align with the administration and Council priorities to 46 promote energy efficiency. There is a link on the City website to Weatherize Lebanon. They are

1 looking at efficiency of City facilities, starting with police station and City Hall renovations and 2 energy audits. There may be waste heat from the landfill gas project that can be used to heat 3 buildings. On the back burner are LED streetlighting and the City’s purchasing policy. 4 5 Councilor Below said there is a bill in the legislature to increase the amount of net metering for 6 customer generators from one to five megawatts. Councilor Hill asked if others are further ahead 7 in this. Councilor Below said New York and California are further ahead, but very few places 8 have real-time pricing, and Lebanon could be on the cutting edge. Councilor Hill asked how 9 West Lebanon residents will find out if they can participate in the pilot program. Councilor 10 Below said that process will evolve, and they hope to start in August. Councilor Bronner asked if 11 the batteries would provide power to homes if the grid goes down. Councilor Below said they 12 would provide enough to run critical functions but not enough for an entire household’s needs. 13 14 (The committee reports portion of the meeting ended at 6:55 p.m.) 15 16 The regular meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by Mayor Prentiss. 17 18 I.

Ms. Allard said 7 someone from a local business could also serve, such as someone from the Economic Vitality 8 Exchange Committee.

Through the review process, staff made changes to extend the RL-1 line to the rear of the last 29 residential property on the road. The line between the RL-1 and IND-H districts would be moved 30 75 feet so the Guaraldi house and barn would all be in the RL-1 district. 31 32 Amendment #2—Proposed Zoning Map Change from NC to RL-2 for portions of 33 properties located at 0 Hillside Dr. (M/L 84-6), 5 Hillside Dr. (M/L 84-3), 7 34 Hillside Dr. (M/L 84-4), 8 Hillside Dr. (M/L 84-5), 0 Manchester Dr. (M/L 98- 35 26), 0 Manchester Dr. (M/L 84-47-2), 5 Manchester Dr. (M/L 84-47-1), 6 36 Manchester Dr. (M/L 84-2), 10 Manchester Dr. (M/L 98-4), 13 Manchester Dr. 37 (M/L 98-25), 0 NH Route 4A (M/L 98-16), 0 NH Route 4A (M/L 98-8), 0 38 NH Route 4A (M/L 98-23-200), 0 NH Route 4A (M/L 84-47-3), 57 NH Route 4A 39 (M/L 84-42), 61 NH Route 4A (M/L 84-43), 65 NH Route 4A (M/L 84-44), 67 40 NH Route 4A (M/L 84-45), 69 NH Route 4A (M/L 84-46), 73 NH Route 4A 41 (M/L 98-5), 74 NH Route 4A (M/L 98-24), 77 NH Route 4A (M/L 98-6), 78 NH 42 Route 4A (M/L 98-23-100), 83 NH Route 4A (M/L 98-7), 86 NH Route 4A (M/L 43 98-22), and 92 NH Route 4A (M/L 99-2).

1 2 Mr. Brooks said they proposed changing this to RL-1, but they decided that RL-2 was better 3 because the dimensional standards are more permissive. Many properties there are non- 4 conforming now and would remain so. 5 6 Amendment #3—Proposed Zoning Map Change from R-2 to R-O for a portion of 7 the property located at 75 Bank St. (M/L 92-78).

The primary purpose of the 36 amendment is to ensure the zoning allows full utilization of CBD lots for 37 commercial purposes. (Zoning Map Change) 38 39 Mr. Brooks said this would extend the CBD zone to the backs of the property lines. 40 41 Amendment #6—Proposed Zoning Map Change from R-2 to R-O for portions of 42 properties located at 59 S.

1 Plan Future Land Use Map, which identifies this area as “mixed use.” (Zoning 2 Map Change) 3 4 Mr. Brooks said this would change some South Main Street properties from R-2 to R-O to reflect 5 the current mix of uses. 6 7 Amendment #7—Proposed Zoning Map Change from R-3 to CBD, and from 8 CBD to R-3 for portions of properties located at 6 Bennett Ct.

The primary purpose of the 18 amendment is to ensure the zoning allows full utilization of CBD lots for 19 commercial purposes. (Zoning Map Change) 20 21 Mr. Brooks said this would extend the CBD to the backs of the property lines on Hanover Street. 22 23 Amendment #8—Proposed Zoning Map Change from CBD to R-2, and from R-2 24 to CBD, and from R-O to CBD for portions of properties located at 18 Bank St. 25 (M/L 92-123), 20 Bank St. (M/L 92-122), and 20 Elm St. (M/L 92-137). The 26 primary purpose of the amendment is to eliminate an apparent anomaly and 27 provide a more logical zoning boundary. (Zoning Map Change) 28 29 Mr. Brooks said the City Council asked that the CBD line be changed but that the zoning of 30 adjoining properties not be changed. 31 32 Amendment #9—Proposed Zoning Map Change from R-3 to CBD for portions of 33 properties located at 45 Spencer St. (M/L 78-17), 48 Spencer St. (M/L 78-38), 52 34 Spencer St. (M/L 78-37), 56 Spencer St. (M/L 78-36), and 4 Suzor Court (M/L 35 78-35).

Lebanon City Council February 7, 2018 Page 15 Lebanon City Council, Minutes, Regular Session, Jan. 17, 2018 Page 8 of 18

1 2 Amendment #11—Proposed Zoning Map Change from IND-L and R-3 to RL-3 3 for portions of properties located at 0 Glen Rd. (Map 116, Lots 5 & 6), 0 Glen 4 Road (M/L 116-4), 0 Glen Road (M/L 102-62), 0 Glen Road (M/L 102-61), and 5 130 Glen Road (M/L 102-60). The primary purpose of the amendment is to bring 6 the zoning into conformance with the adopted 2012 Master Plan Future Land Use 7 Map, which identifies this area as “rural.” (Zoning Map Change) 8 9 Mr. Brooks said this would change IND-L and R-3 land to RL-3. 10 11 TEXT AMENDMENTS: 12 13 Amendment #12—To add Enhanced Performance Standards as an innovative 14 Land Use Control to allow for and regulate uses permitted by Conditional Use 15 Permit (CUP); to move certain uses from a Special Exception Use to a new “Uses 16 Permitted by Conditional Use Permit” (See Section 302.4)” in the IND-L, IND- 17 RA, IND-H, GC, CBD and MC Districts; to clarify that non-residential uses 18 permitted by CUP in the IND-L District may be allowed in an Industrial PUD; to 19 clarify uses permitted by CUP within the Industrial/Office Sector of a Planned 20 Business Park; to clarify conforming use status for pre-existing uses allowed by 21 Conditional Use; and to amend definition of “Conditional Use” (Zoning 22 Ordinance Sections 302.4 (new), 303.2, 303.4, 303.5, 303A.2, 304.2, 305.2, 23 306.2, 306.4, 315.1, 315.2, 501.4.D, 508.4.C, 704, and Appendix A). 24 25 Mr. Brooks said this would allow the Planning Board to grant a Conditional Use Permit for 26 certain land in certain zones. Based on comments by the City attorney, staff took this option out 27 of the residential districts and reduced the number of uses to which this would apply. 28 29 Amendment #13—To return Section 213 (“Impact Fees”), subsection 5 30 (“Standards and Basis of Assessment”) back to original 2009 language to cover 31 conversions for all new development, and to eliminate Section 213.5.E 32 (conversions for new residential development) (Zoning Ordinance Sections 213.5 33 and 213.7) 34 35 Mr. Brooks said this would revert to the 2009 language for conversions, which will make the 36 fees more reasonable and more justifiable. 37 38 Amendment #14—To allow “Accessory Dwelling Unit per Section 610” as a 39 Permitted Use instead of by Special Exception in the R-O, RO-1, and PB Districts 40 (Zoning Ordinance Sections 311.2, 311A.2 and 311B.2) 41 42 Mr. Brooks said this would make accessory dwelling units a permitted use where two-family 43 conversions are a permitted use. 44 45 Amendment #15—To allow “Library or museum conversion per Section 601” 46 and “Theater, concert hall, movie theater conversion per Section 601” as uses

Lebanon City Council February 7, 2018 Page 16 Lebanon City Council, Minutes, Regular Session, Jan. 17, 2018 Page 9 of 18

1 permitted by Special Exception in the R-O District (Zoning Ordinance Sections 2 311.2) 3 4 Mr. Brooks said this would add these uses to the R-O district. A separate action would remove 5 them from the R-2 district. 6 7 Amendment #16—To amend Section 205 to allow a “Group Residence” to 8 include more than one principal building on a lot when approved by the Planning 9 Board as part of a Site Plan Review; and to amend definition of “Group 10 Residence” (Zoning Ordinance Sections 205.3 and Appendix A) 11 12 Mr. Brooks said this would allow more flexibility for group residences. 13 14 Amendment #17—To amend Section 601.2 to allow off-street parking for 15 conversions to occupy the front yard if such parking areas legally existed as of 16 2013. (Zoning Ordinance Section 601.2.A) 17 18 Mr. Brooks said the former School Street School is an example of this situation, in which there is 19 no opportunity for parking on the side or in back of a building. 20 21 Amendment #18—To clarify the exceptions to the maximum off-street parking 22 requirement (Zoning Ordinance Section 607.3.C) 23 24 Mr. Brooks said where there is more than enough parking, applicants will not have to eliminate 25 parking. 26 27 Amendment #19—To add “Retail Showroom per Section 303.5 (less than 10%)” 28 as a Permitted Use in the IND-L District. (Zoning Ordinance Section 303.2) 29 30 Mr. Brooks had no comment about this amendment. 31 32 Amendment #20—To move “Drive-through facility” from a Permitted Use to a 33 Special Exception in the CBD District. (Zoning Ordinance Section 306.2) 34 35 Mr. Brooks said this was a recommendation of the downtown visioning study to allow the City 36 to be more careful about where drive-throughs are allowed. 37 38 Amendment #21—To amend Section 607.5.B to allow the Planning Board to 39 approve private off-lot parking as a Conditional Use for conversions of residences 40 to multi-family dwellings during the Site Plan Review process. (Zoning 41 Ordinance Section 607.5.B) 42 43 Mr. Brooks said the Planning Board is able to do this for non-residential properties now; this 44 would allow them to do so for residential properties. 45

1 Amendment #22—To eliminate minimum size threshold for ADUs. (Zoning 2 Ordinance Section 610.E) 3 4 Mr. Brooks said the minimum size is now 300 square feet, but due to the “tiny house” 5 movement, it is more common to have residential units that are less than 300 square feet. 6 7 Amendment #23—To clarify Section 611.A regarding the number of hens 8 allowed to be kept on any tract of land. (Zoning Ordinance Section 611.A) 9 10 Mr. Brooks had no comment about this amendment. 11 12 Amendment #24—To eliminate definition of “Accessory Wind Energy Facility” 13 (Note: the existing definition of “Accessory Wind Energy System” remains 14 unchanged). (Zoning Ordinance Appendix A) 15 16 Mr. Brooks had no comment about this amendment. 17 18 Mayor Prentiss opened the public hearing. 19 20 Robin Carpenter, Ward 3, said it is very difficult to have this much material coming to the public 21 at once. He said he had to look at amendments 3 and 15 several times to understand them. He 22 said #15 would open the door for theaters, museums, libraries, concert halls, and movie theaters 23 in the R-O district, and he said these uses are not in the spirit of that district. He said this would 24 not be good for neighborhoods. He said #3 should be delayed, and #15 should be put aside. He 25 said it is very hard for him to rationalize the permitted and special exception uses in the R-O 26 district. 27 28 Hearing no further public comment, Mayor Prentiss closed the public hearing. 29 30 Councilor Hill said at one time, the City discussed simplifying the map and renaming zones to 31 include a “mixed-use” zone that would be similar to R-O, with a hybrid of residential and office 32 uses, but more limited. Mr. Brooks said the 2007-08 proposed zoning amendments were an 33 attempt to reduce the number of districts. There was also a proposal to add more flexibility in the 34 R-O and RO-1 districts and to add an “Industrial-Office” district. He said the Future Land Use 35 Map designates a number of areas as “mixed use” but does not specify where they should be in 36 the spectrum of mixed use. 37 38 Mr. Brooks read the purpose statement for the R-O district. He said this is a transitional zone 39 between the State roads and the more traditional residential districts that allows conversion of 40 large single-family homes to preserve them. He said according to the Planning Board minutes of 41 October 2012, the Board felt that as the junior high and School Street School were transitioning 42 to private ownership, unique uses might be appropriate there, so uses were added to the R-2 43 district. Another option would have been to change the zoning of those buildings to R-O. 44 45 Councilor Hill said if they were starting from scratch, there would be a better rationale for this 46 change, but it was tough to sell the idea of comprehensive reform, so they have been making

1 small adjustments since then. She said people want more flexibility, more mixed use, and 2 preservation of the character of the neighborhoods. She said at their last meeting, the Council 3 took off a number of issues that were controversial; the remaining items have been well vetted, 4 and the Council should move forward on them. She said the shortage of housing is a constant 5 refrain. 6 7 Assistant Mayor McNamara asked if it is correct that amendment #3 only applies to the former 8 junior high property. Mr. Brooks said it is. 9 10 Karen Liot Hill moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby approves amendments #1-9 11 and 11-24 as presented on pages 37-39 of the January 17, 2018 City Council agenda packet. 12 Seconded by Shane Smith. 13 *The motion passed 9-0. 14 15 (Assistant Mayor McNamara recused himself at this time.) 16 17 Karen Liot Hill moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby approves amendment #10 as 18 presented on page 38 of the January 17, 2018 City Council agenda packet. Seconded by 19 Bruce Bronner. 20 *The motion passed 8-0. 21 22 (Assistant Mayor McNamara returned to the Council at this time.) 23 24 B. Proposed Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance For 2018 Municipal 25 Ballot—Public Hearing for the purpose of receiving public input and taking 26 action to place proposed zoning amendments on the 2018 Municipal Ballot, 27 as follows: 28 29 Mr. Brooks said these items are required to go to a referendum, and the Council must vote on 30 them by Jan. 31. Proposed zoning amendments must go to a ballot vote if they impact 10 times 31 the minimum Class III lot size in the R-1, R-2, R-3, RL-1, RL-2, or RL-3, or if they would 32 change the table of uses or dimensional standards in a residential district. 33 34 MAP AMENDMENTS: 35 36 Amendment #1—Proposed Zoning Map Change from R-1 to RL-3 for a portion 37 of the property located at 220 Mascoma St (M/L 89-8). The primary purpose of 38 the amendment is to conform with the adopted 2012 Master Plan Future Land Use 39 Map by acknowledging that characteristics of the land, including floodplain, steep 40 slopes, and wetlands, are consistent with Rural Lands designation as opposed to 41 high-density residential district. (Zoning Map Change) 42 43 Mr. Brooks said this is behind Renihan Meadows, where the land drops off by 20-30 feet. 44 Almost all of this land is in the floodplain or wetlands. The Future Land Use Map recommends 45 that this be zoned “rural.” The proposed line is based on the 512-foot contour line. 46

Lebanon City Council February 7, 2018 Page 19 Lebanon City Council, Minutes, Regular Session, Jan. 17, 2018 Page 12 of 18

1 Amendment #2—Proposed Zoning Map Change from R-1 to RL-3 for properties 2 located at 0 Mascoma Street (M/L 74-8-100), 00 Mascoma Street (M/L 74-8- 3 200), 00 Mascoma Street (M/L 74-7), 204 Old Pine Tree Cemetery Road (M/L 4 74-6), 198 Old Pine Tree Cemetery Road (M/L 74-5), and 0 Old Pine Tree 5 Cemetery Road (M/L 74-4). The primary purpose of the amendment is to conform 6 with the adopted 2012 Master Plan Future Land Use Map by acknowledging that 7 characteristics of the land, including steep slopes and wetlands, are consistent 8 with Rural Lands designation as opposed to high-density residential district. 9 (Zoning Map Change) 10 11 Mr. Brooks said this is the southern boundary of the Landmark Lands and is rich in natural 12 resources. He said the R-1 district extends into the natural resource area, and they are proposing 13 to pull it back to the properties that have been developed. Much of what has not been developed 14 is part of conservation easements. 15 16 Amendment #3—Proposed Zoning Map Change from RO-1 and R-3 to RL-3 for 17 properties located at 0 NH Route 120 (M/L 77-127), and 0 Evans Drive (M/L 63- 18 4). The primary purpose of the amendment is to conform with the adopted 2012 19 Master Plan Future Land Use Map by acknowledging that characteristics of the 20 land, including floodplain and wetlands, are consistent with Rural Lands 21 designation as opposed to residential and residential office districts. (Zoning Map 22 Change) 23 24 Mr. Brooks said this is the Route 120 wetlands, which they are proposing to change to RL-3. 25 26 TEXT AMENDMENTS: 27 28 Amendment #4—To allow “Accessory Dwelling Unit per Section 610” as a 29 Permitted Use instead of by Special Exception in the R-1 and R-2 Districts 30 (Zoning Ordinance Sections 308.2 and 309.2) 31 32 Mr. Brooks had no comment about this item. 33 34 Amendment #5—To remove “Private education facility conversion per Section 35 601”, “Library or museum conversion per Section 601” and “Theater, concert 36 hall, movie theater conversion per Section 601” as uses permitted by Special 37 Exception in the R-2 District (Zoning Ordinance Sections 309.2) 38 39 Mr. Brooks had no comment about this item. 40 41 Amendment #6—To add new 302.2 (Accessory Uses), eliminate “Accessory Use 42 to a Permitted Use” from the Permitted Uses of all zoning districts, and eliminate 43 “Accessory Use to a Use Permitted by Special Exception” from the Special 44 Exception Uses of all zoning districts (Zoning Ordinance Sections 302.2, and all 45 Article III Tables of Uses) 46

Lebanon City Council February 7, 2018 Page 20 Lebanon City Council, Minutes, Regular Session, Jan. 17, 2018 Page 13 of 18

1 Mr. Brooks had no comment about this item. 2 3 Amendment #7—To add a minimum setback of 100 feet from any residence on 4 another lot located in any residential district, other than the RL-3 District, for 5 Agricultural uses involving the raising of cows, horses, pigs, poultry and other 6 livestock in RL-1, RL-2, and RL-3 Districts (Zoning Ordinance Sections 312.4, 7 313.4, and 314.4) 8 9 Mr. Brooks said this was in response to complaints to the Planning Office, and the setback will 10 help avoid potential problems. 11 12 Mayor Prentiss opened the public hearing. 13 14 Carl Porter, Ward 3, said during a Planning Board meeting, a property was identified that has an 15 agricultural structure that is 100 feet from the neighboring building. He said this would be a 16 hardship if the property is sold and the owner wanted to use the building for livestock. He said 17 this could cut into the property that could be used for farming, and if it cannot, it could be 18 subdivided and developed. He said the City should consider other ways of keeping stray 19 chickens where they belong. 20 21 Hearing no further public comment, Mayor Prentiss closed the public hearing. 22 23 Assistant Mayor McNamara noted that Amendment #1 follows the contour and then the property 24 line. Mr. Brooks said that is correct. Assistant Mayor McNamara asked if it is correct that there 25 are no buildings on the properties affected by Amendments #2 and #3. Mr. Brooks said that is 26 correct. Regarding Amendment #7, Assistant Mayor McNamara asked if there is agricultural 27 activity 100 feet or more from a building on the adjoining property, and the adjoining property 28 owner puts an addition on the house bringing it closer than 100 feet, whether the agricultural 29 activity would have to move. Mr. Brooks said it would not. Assistant Mayor McNamara said he 30 understands Mr. Porter’s point. He asked if there is another way to solve this problem. Mr. 31 Corwin said there are properties in RL-1 districts that are one acre or less and have no 32 restrictions on agricultural use, including livestock. He said he believed there were at least two 33 complaints from neighbors. Councilor Hill said she did know if they should change the law to 34 solve only two situations. 35 36 Assistant Mayor McNamara said the City has a “nuisance ordinance,” and if his neighbor put in 37 a pig sty, he could say it was a nuisance. Mr. Corwin said he could, but he does not know how 38 often a nuisance provision is used to solve this type of issue, and that is not a great tool. Assistant 39 Mayor McNamara asked if other municipalities have stronger nuisance ordinances. Mr. Corwin 40 said he does not know of any. Mr. Brooks said there are several residential subdivisions in RL 41 districts with small lots. Mr. Corwin said it is hard to say that a use that is permitted by right is a 42 nuisance. Ms. Maville said she believes that agricultural uses are exempt from the nuisance 43 provision. Mr. Corwin said that is true if it was existing at the date of enactment. 44 45 Mr. Porter said he is concerned about a specific property that has three old barns. If they cannot 46 be used, they will be torn down, and that would erode Lebanon’s agricultural history. He asked if

Lebanon City Council February 7, 2018 Page 21 Lebanon City Council, Minutes, Regular Session, Jan. 17, 2018 Page 14 of 18

1 homes that are built close to agricultural properties are actually the nuisance. Councilor Smith 2 suggested that the zoning of the subdivisions could be changed. Mr. Corwin said in the next 3 zone, R-3, there is a big difference in lot size, and that would allow them to subdivide. Mr. 4 Brooks said the areas of concern are pretty suburban, and the RL designation is probably more 5 appropriate. Councilor Smith suggested there could be an RL-N (for neighborhood) zoning 6 district. Mr. Brooks said they could do that. 7 8 Mayor Prentiss said the Council should set this aside and discuss it later. Councilor Below asked 9 if there is a distance less than 100 feet that may work. He said grandfathering is a potential 10 problem. Mr. Porter suggested contacting the New Hampshire Farm Bureau, as they work on 11 legislative issues, and they may have tools that can be used for these issues. 12 13 Tim McNamara moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby requests that the City Clerk 14 place Amendments #1, 3, 4, 5, and 6, as as listed above, on the March 13, 2018 Municipal 15 Election Ballot for consideration by Lebanon voters. Seconded by Jim Winny. 16 *The motion passed 9-0. 17 18 Councilor Heistad said agriculture and housing should not be incompatible. He said people need 19 to be neighborly and respectful of each other. 20 21 Clifton Below moved to reconsider the previous motion. Seconded by Karen Liot Hill. 22 *The motion passed 9-0. 23 24 Tim McNamara moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby approves requests that the 25 City Clerk place Amendments #1, 3, 4, 5, and 6, as presented on pages 95-96 of the January 26 17, 2018 City Council agenda packet, on the March 13, 2018 Municipal Election Ballot for 27 consideration by Lebanon voters. Seconded by Jim Winny. 28 *The motion passed 9-0. 29 30 (Assistant Mayor McNamara recused himself at this time.) 31 32 Karen Liot Hill moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby approves requests that the 33 City Clerk place Amendment #2, as presented on page 95 of the January 17, 2018 City 34 Council agenda packet, on the March 13, 2018 Municipal Election Ballot for consideration 35 by Lebanon voters. Seconded by Erling Heistad. 36 *The motion passed 8-0. 37 38 (Assistant Mayor McNamara returned to the Council at this time.) 39 40 Mr. Brooks said the Council will need to approve concise statements regarding each proposed 41 amendment on Feb. 7. 42 43 44 45

1 C. Ordinance #2018-02—Public hearing for the purpose of receiving public input 2 and taking action on proposed Ordinance #2018-02 to amend the City Code, 3 Chapter 168, Vehicles and Traffic, §168-7(C)(5), Court Street Parking Time 4 Limits 5 6 (Councilor Below recused himself at this time.) 7 8 Ms. Maville said before some of the buses were relocated, there were only two parallel parking 9 spaces here, and now there are five more. The proposal is to extend one-hour parking on the west 10 side of Court Street. 11 12 Mayor Prentiss opened the public hearing. 13 14 Mr. Below, speaking as a member of the public, said he is a partner in One Court Street 15 Associates. He said he requested this, as the police cannot enforce the one-hour parking limit 16 because it is not in the ordinance. He said these are the spaces that are closest to the buildings on 17 the mall, and they were intended to be one-hour spaces. 18 19 Hearing no further public comment, Mayor Prentiss closed the public hearing. 20 21 Tim McNamara moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby adopts Ordinance #2018-02 22 to amend City Code Chapter 168, Vehicles and Traffic, Section 168-7(C)(5), Parking Time 23 Limit, to address all existing parking spaces along the westerly side of Court Street. 24 Seconded by Sarah Welsch. 25 *The motion passed 8-0. 26 27 VIII. OLD BUSINESS 28 29 A. Appointment of City Manager 30 31 (Councilor Below returned to the Council at this time.) 32 33 Bruce Bronner moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby appoints Shaun Mulholland to 34 serve as Lebanon City Manager, effective January 22, 2018. Seconded by Shane Smith. 35 36 Assistant Mayor McNamara said this was a long and arduous process, but it turned out very 37 positive. He said he has high hopes for Mr. Mulholland. Mayor Prentiss agreed and said she 38 appreciates the time of the Council and the public who participated. She said an open house for 39 Mr. Mulholland will be held on Jan. 31. She thanked Ms. Maville, who has led them with a 40 steady hand, which was appreciated by all. 41 42 *The motion passed 9-0. 43 44 B. CSO 11 Design & Construction—Inclusion of Sidewalks on West Street, 45 Lebanon 46

Lebanon City Council February 7, 2018 Page 23 Lebanon City Council, Minutes, Regular Session, Jan. 17, 2018 Page 16 of 18

1 Ms. Hall said this project is under construction. They designed it with a continuous sidewalk 2 from Young Street to High Street, and this would be the only sidewalk that connects to High 3 Street. She said a fair number of people walk in this neighborhood. The issue was brought to the 4 Pedestrian & Bicyclist Advisory Committee, and there were numerous meetings with 5 neighborhood residents. Some feel there should not be a sidewalk there because the street is 6 narrow, and there are issues with parking and access in and out of driveways. It is a narrow one- 7 way street. She said the City Manager’s Office conducted a poll, and there were not many 8 responses. Others have submitted letters. Some feel there is not enough parking; older houses 9 were converted to multi-families without the developer providing enough parking. The issue is 10 worse in the winter, since people cannot park on the street. Some have been parking on City 11 property, where the High Street fountain is, and a portion of that was planned for a rain garden. 12 If people are going to park there, the City will have to reshape the rain garden. 13 14 Assistant Mayor McNamara said there was a proposal for flush curbing or very short curbing, 15 and he is concerned about conflicts between cars and pedestrians; a full-height curb provides 16 protection and discourages people from riding the curb. He said there should either be a full-curb 17 sidewalk or none. He said the City could formalize ad-hoc parking at the fountain site, but there 18 is the question of when it would be plowed. He said the City would be responsible for that 19 parking area, and he is not very comfortable with setting that precedent. 20 21 Councilor Below said neighbors have strong concerns about narrowing the street to 16 feet of 22 pavement. There could be parking on the south side of West Street. Some of the pull-off area 23 encroaches on front yards, and it is difficult to pull out without jumping the curbing. That is why 24 the Pedestrian & Bicyclist Advisory Committee recommended a short curb. He distributed a 25 diagram he began drawing and showed photos of West Pleasant Street in Claremont, where a 26 sidewalk has held up well. He said the City could sell permits for overnight parking on their 27 property; five spaces are always in use. He said the first property on the north side doesn’t own 28 enough property for on-site parking; the City could create a curb cut and sell or trade land or an 29 easement to allow that property to have one or two spaces. Construction on that street is not 30 scheduled until 2019. 31 32 Assistant Mayor McNamara said there should be consistency on both sides of the street. Ms. Hall 33 said granite curbing is very expensive, but the staff likes it better because it stays in place, and 34 concrete needs treatment. Assistant Mayor McNamara said concrete lasts a long time, but it has 35 to be done correctly. He said he is concerned with plows hitting concrete curbing, and protection 36 of pedestrians is a concern. Councilor Hill said a lot more work needs to be done, and they may 37 not be able to make a decision at this meeting. She said this should be a future agenda item. 38 39 Larry Guaraldi, a West Street property owner, said he agrees with Councilor Below regarding 40 parking. He said the sidewalk would create a safety issue; if they narrow the street, two fire 41 trucks cannot pass each other. He said he is also concerned about residents of Jordan Court and 42 Bennett Court, as it would be almost impossible to get fire trucks onto those streets in the winter. 43 He said five residents were in favor of the sidewalk, and 14 were opposed. Councilor Hill said 44 they need to have a safe way to get pedestrians from that neighborhood to downtown. She asked 45 how landlords can have no parking for tenants. She asked if this is a problem elsewhere and 46 asked why the City is responsible for providing parking for residents. She said she is not sure

Lebanon City Council February 7, 2018 Page 24 Lebanon City Council, Minutes, Regular Session, Jan. 17, 2018 Page 17 of 18

1 that Councilor Below’s plan accommodates the storm drainage plan. Councilor Smith said the 2 Fire Department should weigh in with their concerns. 3 4 Ms. Maville said they can bring this back and make a decision no later than March 7. Ms. Hall 5 said they need a parking plan, pricing for asphalt and granite, and input from the Fire 6 Department. Mr. Brooks noted that the conversions happened before parking requirements were 7 in place. Councilor Smith said they need a high-level view of where sidewalks are and are not 8 and where they will be. Ms. Welsch said she would like to know the number of apartments in 9 each building on West Street. Councilor Winny asked if the sidewalks need to be five feet wide. 10 Ms. Hall said they need to be 5½ feet wide, and 6 feet wide if there are any constraints, to 11 accommodate the sidewalk tractor. 12 13 Ms. Maville said there have not been a lot of conversions on West Street. The issue is that 14 residences that used to have one car now may have several, and the City cannot control that. She 15 said there are other areas with the same issue. Assistant Mayor McNamara said landlords can tell 16 an applicant that if he has more than one car, he should not rent there. Mr. Brooks said staff 17 needs to know how the Council feels about using the fountain parcel. Councilor Heistad said 18 they should preserve as much of that park as possible. Councilor Bronner said if they rent space, 19 the City will become landlords and will be responsible for policing use of the site. Councilor Hill 20 said if a building has no parking, the City should be open to selling a piece of land. 21 22 The Council agreed that they should not be looking at more parking on the fountain parcel than 23 is currently used. 24 25 IX. NEW BUSINESS 26 27 A. Discussion and Potential Action to reduce speed limit on Pleasant Street, 28 West Lebanon from 30 mph to 25 mph 29 30 Chief Mello said this was discussed by the Public Safety Committee. A traffic study was done, 31 and the data did not meet the criteria for speed tables. He said a 25 mph speed limit is 32 reasonable, and they could do more enforcement. He said there are many streets in Lebanon like 33 that. Assistant Mayor McNamara said he lived in that neighborhood, and he agrees with the 25 34 mph limit. He said the problem is the cars coming down the hill. Councilor Welsch asked if the 35 limit should be lower than 25. Chief Mello said that is the statutory limit. 36 37 Karen Liot Hill moved that the Lebanon City Council hereby approves the recommendation 38 of the Public Safety Administration Team to reduce the speed limit on Pleasant Street, 39 West Lebanon, from 30 mph to 25 mph. Seconded by Tim McNamara. 40 *The motion passed 9-0. 41 42 X. REPORTS 43 44 A. City Manager 45

1 Ms. Maville said the Citizens Academy starts on Feb. 1, and it would be good if Councilors 2 could attend the first session. Those who plan to attend should let her know. Councilor Smith 3 said he highly recommends the program, and staff does a great job. 4 5 Mayor Prentiss said there is a proposal to turn over three or four acres near the dry bridge from 6 the State to the City. She said Chief Christopoulos has had discussions with Rymes Propane 7 about burying their tanks; there will be another meeting in March. 8 9 Karen Liot Hill moved that the Lebanon City Council authorizes Clifton Below to speak on 10 behalf of the City Council in support of State legislation increasing the net metering cap to 11 5 megawatts.
