5:06:36PM MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
5:06:38PM SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
5:06:39PM ALL IN FAVOR?
5:06:40PM AYE.
5:06:40PM ANY OPPOSED?
5:06:41PM ALL RIGHT.
5:06:42PM WE HAVE SOME HOUSEKEEPING.
5:06:43PM YES, MA'AM, GO AHEAD.
5:06:45PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: GOOD EVENING, CHAIRMAN AND COUNCIL.
5:06:46PM LaCHONE DOCK, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
5:06:48PM I WOULD LIKE TO CLEAR THE AGENDA FOR THIS EVENING.
5:06:51PM THE FIRST ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS ITEM NUMBER 2, WHICH IS
5:06:54PM REZ-23-99.
5:06:56PM THERE IS A REQUEST TO CONTINUE THIS ITEM TO MARCH 13, 2025.
5:07:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I MOVE TO MOVE THE ITEM TO MARCH -- IT
5:07:07PM SAYS JANUARY.
5:07:09PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: I'M SORRY.
5:07:10PM IN SPEAKING WITH THE APPLICANT, THE REQUEST IS FOR MARCH 13.
5:07:13PM THEY CAN CONFIRM, THE APPLICANT.
5:07:17PM AS WELL AS WAIVING THE 180 DAY.
5:07:19PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: YOU'RE AWARE THE AGENDA SAYS JANUARY 16?
5:07:22PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: YES.
5:07:23PM THE ORIGINAL REQUEST WAS JANUARY.
5:07:25PM I BELIEVE THEY HAVE HAD COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE PUBLIC.
5:07:31PM >> TRUETT GARDNER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
5:07:34PM ON THE MARCH DATE, WHAT WE REALIZED IS OUR ORIGINAL
5:07:37PM CONTINUANCE WAS JANUARY 16.
5:07:39PM WE'RE GOING TO BE MEETING WITH THE NEIGHBORS THIS UPCOMING
5:07:42PM WEEK BUT WE REALIZED TODAY THAT IF WE DID AGREE TO SOME SITE
5:07:45PM PLAN CHANGES, OUR LAST DATE TO SUBMIT THAT SITE PLAN WAS
5:07:50PM YESTERDAY.
5:07:50PM SO IT MAKES NO SENSE.
5:07:52PM THE MARCH 13 WOULD GIVE US UNTIL JANUARY 15 TO MAKE
5:07:55PM REVISIONS AND ALSO GIVE STAFF THE ABILITY TO REVIEW AGAIN.
5:07:59PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I MAKE A MOTION TO MOVE THE ITEM TO MARCH
5:08:01PM 13 AND WAIVE THE 180 DAY.
5:08:04PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
5:08:05PM SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK AND MR. SHELBY.
5:08:08PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: MS. DOCK, IF YOU CAN, AND COUNCIL, YOU CAN
5:08:15PM RATIFY THIS.
5:08:16PM THIS IS THE FIRST CONTINUANCE, IS THAT CORRECT?
5:08:18PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: THIS IS THE SECOND REQUEST.
5:08:20PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: BUT THE FIRST CONTINUANCE WAS ORIGINALLY
5:08:25PM ASKED FOR FOR AN OCTOBER 10 MEETING.
5:08:27PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: YES.
5:08:28PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: I WANT TO BE CLEAR FOR THE RECORD.
5:08:31PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: THE CASE WAS SCHEDULED FOR AUGUST 8.
5:08:33PM THEN IT WAS CONTINUED TO OCTOBER 10, AND THEN THE OCTOBER 10
5:08:37PM CASES WERE RESCHEDULED TO TODAY DUE TO THE STORM.
5:08:41PM THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE OCTOBER 10 AGENDA.
5:08:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ALL IN FAVOR?
5:08:50PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: NOW, JUST ONE LAST THING.
5:08:52PM YOU HAD NOTIFIED THE COUNCIL FOR THE ORIGINAL CONTINUANCE AT
5:08:55PM LEAST A WEEK IN ADVANCE AS I RECALL, IS THAT CORRECT?
5:08:59PM >> CORRECT.
5:08:59PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU.
5:09:00PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ALL IN FAVOR?
5:09:00PM AYE.
5:09:01PM ANY OPPOSED.
5:09:02PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: IF WE COULD HAVE THE DATE, TIME AND PLACE
5:09:07PM AGAIN BECAUSE THERE IS GOING TO BE, FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE
5:09:09PM PUBLIC, THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE ANOTHER MAILING WITH REGARD
5:09:12PM TO THIS CONTINUANCE.
5:09:13PM SO THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN REZ 23-99 AT 319 BAYSHORE
5:09:20PM BOULEVARD, THE DATE OF THE HEARING IS AGAIN.
5:09:23PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MARCH 13, 2025, 5:01 P.M., 315 EAST
5:09:26PM KENNEDY BOULEVARD, TAMPA, FLORIDA, 33602, THIRD FLOOR.
5:09:30PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.
5:09:32PM >>LYNN HURTAK: JUST A QUESTION, WILL THAT BE THE FIRST --
5:09:36PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: FIRST OR LAST ON THE AGENDA, MR. SHELBY?
5:09:39PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: LET ME READ THE RULE TO YOU.
5:09:41PM RULE 3C-2 STATES THAT FOR THOSE EVENING LAND USE ITEMS THAT
5:09:50PM ARE REQUIRED TO BE RESCHEDULED, CONTINUED OR SET FOR

5:12:21PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SEPARATE VOTES.
5:12:23PM ALL RIGHT.
5:12:23PM IF WE WANT TO KICK IT OFF WITH ITEM NUMBER 1.
5:12:27PM GO AHEAD.
5:12:31PM >>ROSS SAMONS: ROSS SAMONS, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
5:12:35PM GET THE CLERK TO SHARE THE ELMO SCREEN, PLEASE.
5:12:38PM PRESENTING FILE VAC-24-09.
5:12:50PM REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME IS GARDNER, BREWER, HUDSON.
5:12:57PM PROPERTY ADDRESS IS 2315 NORTH FLORIDA AVENUE.
5:13:01PM THIS IS A PROPOSED VACATING REQUEST, NORTH OF AMELIA AVENUE,
5:13:05PM SOUTH OF COLUMBUS DRIVE, EAST OF FLORIDA AVENUE AND WEST OF
5:13:08PM MORGAN STREET.
5:13:09PM THIS APPLICATION WAS FILED MARCH 22, 2024.
5:13:14PM APPLICANT'S REASON FOR THE APPLICATION IS SOUTHERN PORTION
5:13:16PM OF THE ALLEY WAS ALREADY VACATED.
5:13:18PM APPLICANT OWNS ALL SURROUNDING LAND.
5:13:20PM THIS RIGHT-OF-WAY IS CREATED BY SUBDIVISION PLAT AND
5:13:23PM ACQUISITION.
5:13:24PM THE EXISTING RIGHT-OF-WAY IS APPROXIMATELY 4,875 SQUARE
5:13:29PM FEET.
5:13:29PM AND THIS IS WITHIN THE TAMPA HEIGHTS OVERLAY.
5:13:32PM HERE IS AN AERIAL VIEW OF THE PROPOSED VACATING REQUEST.
5:13:41PM YELLOW FROM COLUMBUS TO AMELIA, AND THE APPLICANT'S PROPERTY
5:13:46PM IN RED.
5:13:52PM THIS IS THE PLAT IN WHICH THE ALLEY WAY WAS DEDICATED.
5:13:58PM IN RED IS WHAT IS EXISTING OF THE ALLEY.
5:14:02PM GREEN WAS PART OF THE ACQUISITION TO EXTEND THE ALLEY IN THE
5:14:07PM PAST.
5:14:08PM THIS IS RIGHT-OF-WAY MAPPING ATLAS SHEET SHOWING THE CURRENT
5:14:17PM PROPOSED VACATING REQUEST IN RED.
5:14:20PM AGAIN, SHOWING PREVIOUS ALLEY VACATINGS IN THE PLAT ITSELF.
5:14:29PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MARTY, WE SEE IT.
5:14:35PM >>ROSS SAMONS: THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH FROM EAST COLUMBUS
5:14:37PM DRIVE.
5:14:38PM THE ALLEY APPROXIMATE LOCATION IS HERE.
5:14:41PM THEN THE CURVE HERE.
5:14:42PM THIS IS LOOKING NORTH FROM AMELIA AVENUE.
5:14:49PM AGAIN, APPROXIMATE LOCATION OF THE ALLEY IS HERE AND IT GOES
5:14:53PM BEHIND THE BUILDINGS HERE.
5:14:54PM STAFF OBJECTS TO THIS VACATING REQUEST.
5:15:01PM EASEMENT RESERVATION REQUIRED BY TECO.
5:15:04PM SPECIAL CONDITIONS ARE NATURAL RESOURCES, COMPLY WITH
5:15:07PM CHAPTER 27 AS REGARDS TO TREE PRESERVATION AND SITE DESIGN
5:15:11PM FOR ANY IMPROVEMENTS PLACED ADJACENT TO TREES IN THE VACATED
5:15:15PM AREA.
5:15:15PM THAT ONE OBJECTION FROM STAFF IS FROM URBAN DESIGN, AND
5:15:23PM THAT'S DUE TO THE FACT TAMPA HEIGHTS OVERLAY DISTRICT AND
5:15:28PM ALLEYS ARE ENCOURAGED TO BE USED FOR DESIGN STANDARDS.
5:15:32PM I'M AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
5:15:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS?
5:15:36PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
5:15:38PM WHO IS NEXT?
5:15:43PM >> TYLER HUDSON.
5:15:45PM ADDRESS 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
5:15:47PM VERY FULL AND EXCITING AGENDA BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING.
5:15:51PM WE'LL TRY TO KEEP THIS PRETTY EFFICIENT.
5:15:53PM THIS PROPERTY MIGHT HAVE SEEMED FAMILIAR TO YOU BECAUSE IT'S
5:15:56PM IN SERVICE OF A PROJECT THAT COMPRISES THREE DIFFERENT
5:15:59PM APPLICATIONS.
5:16:00PM THERE IS A RIGHT-OF-WAY VACATING THAT I'M GOING TO SPEAK
5:16:03PM ABOUT NOW.
5:16:04PM THERE IS A PD THAT WE'LL SPEAK ABOUT NEXT.
5:16:07PM TWO PRESENTATIONS, TWO VOTES.
5:16:08PM BUT BACK ON SEPTEMBER 12, THERE WAS A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
5:16:10PM AMENDMENT FOR THIS LAND AREA TO CHANGE THE SITE FROM CMU 35
5:16:14PM AND U -- UP TO UMU 60 AND FROM R-35 UP TO CMU 35.
5:16:20PM SO THIS COUNCIL PASSED THAT UNANIMOUSLY ON SEPTEMBER 12.
5:16:26PM ASKED TO KEEP THESE THINGS TOGETHER.
5:16:27PM SOMETIMES THERE IS A PREFERENCE TO PRESENT THE LAND USE
5:16:30PM TOTALLY INDEPENDENTLY OF THE PROJECT THAT IT'S IN SERVICE
5:16:32PM OF, SO THAT'S WHAT WE DID.
5:16:34PM SOME OF THIS MIGHT SEEM FAMILIAR.
5:16:35PM ALSO IN THE INTEREST OF TIME, I'LL GO AHEAD AND INTRODUCE
5:16:38PM THE PROJECT TEAM NOW SO FOR THE PD WE CAN GET SORT OF RIGHT
5:16:43PM INTO THE SUBSTANCE AND NOT INTO THE INTRODUCTION.
5:16:45PM THE DEVELOPER OF THIS PROJECT IS THE FRAMEWORK GROUP.
5:16:48PM WITH US HERE THIS EVENING IS PHILLIP SMITH, NICK HERRING,
5:16:50PM AND --
5:16:53PM THE PROJECT CIVIL ENGINEER IS KIMLEY-HORN.
5:16:56PM THERE ARE A FEW OTHERS HERE.
5:16:57PM TORTI GALLAS IS THE ARCHITECTURE FIRM THAT HAS BEEN WORKING
5:17:02PM ON THIS PROJECT SINCE THE BEGINNING.
5:17:03PM JONATHAN FISCHER IS HERE.
5:17:03PM DARK MOSS IS OUR ARBORIST.
5:17:06PM RICKY PETERIKA IS HERE AND MY COLLEAGUE ALEX SCHALER IS HERE
5:17:10PM AS WELL.
5:17:11PM TALK ABOUT THE ALLEY, LITTLE UNUSUAL SHAPE.
5:17:13PM 15 FEET WIDE BUT THEN IT STOPS BECAUSE I BELIEVE ABOUT 40,
5:17:17PM 50 YEARS AGO, THAT BOTTOM PIECE WAS VACATED.
5:17:20PM THE CITY WAS ABLE TO ASSEMBLE THIS WONKY TURNAROUND AS YOU
5:17:24PM CAN SEE THERE.
5:17:25PM THE TRIANGLE PIECE IS ACTUALLY JUST A PIECE OF CITY-OWNED
5:17:29PM REAL ESTATE FOR WHICH THIS COUNCIL APPROVED LAND SALE
5:17:33PM CONTRACT.
5:17:33PM CONTINGENT ON ALL OF THE STUFF GETTING APPROVED OF WHICH
5:17:38PM THERE IS A LOT OF STUFF.
5:17:39PM BREAKS UP THE SITE.
5:17:40PM FACING FLORIDA AVENUE, LONG, LONG TIME AGO, REALLY EVEN
5:17:43PM BEFORE SOME OF THE -- THIS WAS PLATTED TO BE SINGLE-FAMILY
5:17:47PM HOMES FACING FLORIDA AVENUE.
5:17:49PM THAT'S REALLY NEVER HOW IT DEVELOPED.
5:17:51PM THE BLOCK PATTERNS IN THIS PORTION OF TAMPA HEIGHTS ARE
5:17:54PM REALLY LARGELY THE RESULT OF THE VACATINGS THAT HAVE
5:17:57PM PRECEDED IT, WHICH ROSS ALLUDED TO.
5:18:00PM IN TERMS OF THE REASONS WHY TRYING TO HAVE IT VACATED, FIRST
5:18:04PM OF ALL IT CREATES A DEAD END.
5:18:06PM YOU CAN'T REALLY TELL THE ALLEY IS THERE BECAUSE IT IS
5:18:09PM ASPHALT IN A SEA OF ASPHALT.
5:18:10PM LIKE TRYING TO DISCERN DROPS OF WATER IN THE OCEAN.
5:18:14PM IT IS LEGALLY THERE ON PAPER.
5:18:16PM DOESN'T FUNCTION LIKE A NORMAL THRU AREA.
5:18:18PM FOUR-FIFTHS OF THE WAY DOWN, IT HAS A WEIRD HITCH.
5:18:23PM IT'S NOT USED AT ALL BY THE BUILDINGS FRONTING FLORIDA
5:18:25PM AVENUE, WHICH ARE COMPLETELY VACANT AND INOPERABLE.
5:18:30PM NOT THAT THIS IS ENORMOUSLY MEANINGFUL, THE SAME PROPERTY
5:18:35PM OWNER OWNS ALL OF THE LAND AROUND IT.
5:18:37PM WHILE THERE IS A STAFF OBJECTION THAT IS SORT OF IN A SEA OF
5:18:42PM NON-OBJECTIONS, THERE WAS AN OBJECTION AT ONE POINT FROM
5:18:45PM STREET MAINTENANCE BECAUSE IF YOU SEE THE WORD EAST COLUMBUS
5:18:49PM DRIVE ON YOUR SCREEN, KIND OF RIGHT UNDER THE E AND C, THE
5:18:53PM SIDEWALK IS REALLY STRANGE.
5:18:55PM IT IS A COMPOSITE OF SOME CITY-OWNED LAND AND SOME
5:18:57PM RIGHT-OF-WAY.
5:19:00PM WE ORIGINALLY INCLUDED THAT IN THE APPLICATION.
5:19:03PM CITY WANTED TO KEEP THAT FOR SIDEWALK.
5:19:05PM WE DON'T HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THAT.
5:19:06PM ONCE WE REMOVED FROM THE APPLICATION, I THINK THE STREET
5:19:09PM MAINTENANCE OBJECTION WENT AWAY.
5:19:10PM URBAN DESIGN POINT, I DON'T WANT TO BE DISMISSIVE OF THE
5:19:14PM NOTE.
5:19:14PM THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION WHICH REVIEWS AND
5:19:17PM RECOMMENDS TO YOU ALL THESE APPLICATIONS, THEY I BELIEVE IT
5:19:20PM WAS UNANIMOUS.
5:19:21PM THEY HAD NO ISSUE AT ALL WITH THE ALLEY.
5:19:23PM SEEN NO OBJECTIONS FROM ANY OF THE NEIGHBORS AT ALL ABOUT
5:19:26PM THIS ALLEY VACATING COMPONENT OF THE PROJECT.
5:19:28PM IT'S NECESSARY TO BRING REALLY ANY MEANINGFUL DENSITY TO THE
5:19:32PM SITE WHICH I THINK THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN INVITES BASED ON
5:19:34PM THIS COUNCIL'S DIRECTION.
5:19:37PM I DON'T HAVE MUCH MORE TO SAY ON THIS.
5:19:39PM I'LL WRAP IT UP THERE BUT HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU
5:19:41PM HAVE.
5:19:42PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE GENTLEMAN?
5:19:43PM DOES THAT CONCLUDE YOUR PRESENTATION?
5:19:47PM >> YES, SIR, IT DOES.
5:19:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I'LL GO TO PUBLIC COMMENT, THEN.
5:19:52PM ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 1,
5:19:55PM JUST THE ALLEY VACATING?
5:19:57PM MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
5:20:08PM SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA.

5:20:51PM INTERPRETATIONS AND REPEALING CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR

5:20:55PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A MOTION AND SECOND.

5:20:57PM AYE.

5:21:08PM ITEMS THIS EVENING, PLEASE STAND AND RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND
5:21:11PM AND WE'LL SWEAR YOU IN.

5:24:32PM STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THE APPLICANT INCLUDE A NOTE
5:24:35PM REFERENCING LAND USE POLICY 5.1.6 BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND

5:24:41PM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EMPHASIZES PEDESTRIAN SAFETY AND
5:24:42PM ENCOURAGES COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT THAT ENHANCES THE
5:24:44PM CHARACTER AND AMBIENCE OF THE CITY OF TAMPA, PARTICULARLY
5:24:47PM WITHIN MIXED USE CORRIDORS.

5:24:55PM PRACTICAL AND FEASIBLE LOCATIONS TO SUPPORT PEDESTRIAN
5:24:58PM ACTIVITY.

5:30:16PM THESE ARE THE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED HOUSES DIRECTLY BEHIND
5:30:19PM THE SUBJECT SITE TO THE EAST.
5:30:21PM THIS IS ON AMELIA LOOKING TOWARDS FLORIDA AVENUE THAT WAY.
5:30:24PM THIS IS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM WHERE YOU WERE JUST

5:31:08PM YOU HAVE THE METROPOLITAN MINISTRIES THERE.
5:31:10PM THIS IS LOOKING NORTH ALONG FLORIDA AVENUE TOWARDS THE
5:31:15PM INTERSECTION WITH COLUMBUS.
5:31:16PM THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE HERE.
5:31:19PM THIS IS LOOKING EAST INTO THE TAMPA HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD,
5:31:23PM AND THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE.
5:31:25PM AND THAT'S THE ALLEY THAT WAS VACATED.
5:31:28PM THIS IS MOVING FARTHER NORTH ON FLORIDA AVENUE.
5:31:35PM THESE ARE SOME OF THE CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURES THERE, AND
5:31:37PM THEN THE INTERSECTION OF COLUMBUS.
5:31:41PM AND THEN THESE ARE SOME OF THE STRUCTURES ON THE PROPERTY
5:31:44PM CURRENTLY.
5:31:45PM WE HAVE NOW ROUNDED THE CORNER, UP PAST FLORIDA AVENUE.
5:31:50PM THIS IS ALONG COLUMBUS DRIVE LOOKING EAST.
5:31:53PM THIS IS ONE OF THE STRUCTURES ON THE SITE THAT'S
5:31:56PM CONTRIBUTING.
5:31:57PM THIS IS LOOKING SOUTHEAST ONTO THE SUBJECT SITE BACK BEHIND
5:32:00PM THE BUILDINGS.
5:32:01PM YOU CAN SEE THE UTILITY TRANSMISSION SITE THERE.

5:32:36PM HOMES TO THE EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE ON MORGAN STREET.
5:32:39PM I KNOW THAT WAS A LOT OF PICTURES BUT IT'S A BIG SITE.
5:32:45PM HERE IS A SITE PLAN FOR YOU AGAIN.
5:32:50PM DEVELOPMENT REVIEW AND COMPLIANCE STAFF FOUND THE REQUEST
5:32:53PM INCONSISTENT.
5:32:54PM SEE THE FINDINGS FROM DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION, NATURAL
5:32:56PM RESOURCES, TRANSPORTATION, AND ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW AND
5:32:58PM HISTORIC PRESERVATION.
5:33:00PM TWO CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURES COMBINED WITH PROPOSAL'S LACK OF
5:33:03PM EFFORT TO INCORPORATE ARC CONDITIONS OF PROPOSAL.
5:33:07PM NO PROPOSED HEIGHT TREES AND PROPOSED HEIGHT TO
5:33:10PM SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED HOMES INDICATES THAT THE PROJECT DOES
5:33:13PM NOT FULLY ADDRESS OR ADEQUATELY MITIGATE THE POTENTIAL
5:33:16PM IMPACTS WHILE FALLING SHORT OF CREATING A TRULY URBAN
5:33:20PM ENVIRONMENT THAT PROMOTES WALKABILITY.
5:33:22PM NOTWITHSTANDING STAFF FINDING OF INCONSISTENCY, SHOULD IT BE
5:33:25PM THE PLEASURE OF COUNCIL TO APPROVE THE WAIVERS AS IDENTIFIED
5:33:29PM IN THE STAFF REPORT, MODIFICATIONS AS SHOWN ON REVISED
5:33:31PM REVISION SHEET MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
5:33:34PM READING.
5:33:34PM THE REVISIONS WILL NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUES OF ALL THE
5:33:37PM INCONSISTENCY FINDINGS.
5:33:38PM I HAVE A REVISED REVISION SHEET.
5:33:41PM STAFF FINDINGS ARE BASED ON THE LAST SUBMITTED SITE PLAN.
5:33:44PM I WOULD LIKE TO TURN IT OVER TO DENNIS FERNANDEZ WITH THE
5:33:48PM ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION TO GO OVER
5:33:50PM THEIR STAFF'S FINDINGS AND ARC RECOMMENDATIONS.
5:33:56PM I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
5:33:58PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS?
5:33:59PM NO.
5:34:00PM MR. FERNANDEZ.
5:34:02PM >>DENNIS FERNANDEZ: GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MEMBERS.
5:34:18PM DENNIS FERNANDEZ, ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW AND HISTORIC
5:34:20PM PRESERVATION MANAGER.
5:34:21PM THIS EVENING I JUST WANTED TO BRING THE RECOMMENDATION OF
5:34:24PM THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION FOR THIS REQUEST.
5:34:27PM I WANT TO JUST SUMMARIZE THAT THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW
5:34:30PM COMMISSION FELT THAT A PROJECT WAS POSSIBLE AND ENCOURAGED
5:34:34PM IN THIS PARTICULAR LOCATION WHICH HAS REALLY BEEN A
5:34:37PM CHALLENGING AREA FOR NOT ONLY THE TAMPA HEIGHTS HISTORIC
5:34:42PM DISTRICT, BUT THE FLORIDA AVENUE CORRIDOR.
5:34:44PM THERE'S BEEN OTHER PROJECTS ALONG THE FLORIDA AVENUE
5:34:47PM CORRIDOR IN THE HISTORIC DISTRICT WHERE THE ARCHITECTURE
5:34:49PM REVIEW COMMISSION FELT THE EXTRA MASSING AND DENSITY WAS
5:34:54PM APPROPRIATE AND THEY FELT IN THIS CASE THAT FOR THE MOST
5:34:57PM PART, REDEVELOPMENT WAS WELCOMED.
5:35:00PM HOWEVER, THIS PARTICULAR REDEVELOPMENT WAS CONDITIONED BY
5:35:04PM SEVERAL POINTS THAT THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION MADE
5:35:07PM IN ITS MOTION.
5:35:09PM I DO WANT TO REMIND THE COUNCIL THAT THERE ARE TWO
5:35:13PM CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURES ON THE SITE THAT WERE APPROVED FOR
5:35:16PM DEMOLITION IN COORDINATION WITH THIS PROJECT.
5:35:20PM ALSO, THE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT WAS RECOMMENDED TO BE APPROVED
5:35:24PM AND THE ALLEY VACATING WAS RECOMMENDED TO BE APPROVED.
5:35:27PM I THINK YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE WAS A WILLINGNESS TO
5:35:31PM COLLABORATE WITH THE DEVELOPER WITHIN CERTAIN PARAMETERS.
5:35:35PM I KIND OF MARKED UP THE SITE PLAN A LITTLE BIT TO TRY TO
5:35:40PM EXPLAIN SOME OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT THE BOARD MADE AT
5:35:44PM ITS JULY 10, 2024, PUBLIC HEARING.
5:35:51PM GENERALLY, THE COMMISSION SUPPORTED THE STAFF COMMENTS THAT
5:35:56PM WERE PROVIDED IN THE STAFF REPORT FOR THAT EVENING'S
5:36:00PM HEARING.
5:36:00PM THEY DID RECOMMEND GENERAL NOTE NUMBER 3 ON THE PROPOSED PD
5:36:04PM SITE PLAN BE AMENDED.
5:36:06PM I HAD HAD DISCUSSION WITH THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM ABOUT THIS
5:36:10PM PARTICULAR NOTE.
5:36:11PM PDs CAN BE VERY CHALLENGING FOR THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW
5:36:14PM COMMISSION BECAUSE IT LOCKS IN SO MANY ELEMENTS OF
5:36:18PM DEVELOPMENT, SUCH AS SETBACKS, HEIGHT, THE GENERAL FOOTPRINT
5:36:21PM OF THE BUILDING THAT WHEN THE COMMISSION RECEIVES THAT BACK
5:36:25PM FOR THE CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS REVIEW, THEY ARE VERY
5:36:28PM RESTRICTED IN WHAT THEY CAN CHANGE.
5:36:30PM SO WE WERE LOOKING TO HAVE SOME TYPE OF FLEXIBILITY WITHIN
5:36:34PM THE ENVELOPE FOR THE BUILDING TO BE ABLE TO STEP BACK, STEP
5:36:38PM BACK HIGHER LEVELS, BREAK UP THE MASSING AND SCALE.
5:36:43PM THE BOARD WENT BEYOND WHAT THE STAFF RECOMMENDED.
5:36:46PM SO WITHIN THE YELLOW ENVELOPE OF THE PROJECT, THE COMMISSION
5:36:50PM RECOMMENDED THAT THE SETBACK AND HEIGHTS SHOWN ON THE SITE
5:36:53PM PLAN AND ELEVATION BE ALLOWED TO BE ADJUSTED UP TO 25% OF
5:36:57PM EACH BUILDING ELEVATION DURING THE CERTIFICATE OF
5:37:00PM APPROPRIATENESS REVIEW PROCESS.
5:37:02PM THEY ARE SAYING OF THE 25%, THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO STEP BACK
5:37:05PM OR CHANGE THE SETBACK WHICH OBVIOUSLY AFFECTS THE DESIGN AND
5:37:11PM POTENTIALLY THE HEIGHT OF A PROJECT.
5:37:15PM THEY ALSO REQUESTED THAT THE APPLICANT NOTE FOR THE
5:37:18PM APPROPRIATE TREATMENT OF THE GRANITE CURBS, THERE ARE
5:37:21PM GRANITE CURBS THAT SURROUND THE PROPERTY.
5:37:23PM I BELIEVE THAT WAS PRESENTED IN THE REVISIONS.
5:37:26PM I'M SURE THAT THE APPLICANT WILL COVER THAT WHEN THEY
5:37:32PM ADDRESS THE COMMISSION.
5:37:33PM THERE'S ALSO A RECOMMENDATION THAT ANY OF THE APPROVAL OF
5:37:39PM THE ARC BE CONTINGENT ON COUNCIL APPROVING THE VACATING AND
5:37:43PM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT.
5:37:45PM THOSE ITEMS ARE NOW MOOT.
5:37:47PM THERE WAS A REQUEST, PARTICULARLY BEING SENSITIVE TO THE
5:37:53PM SINGLE-FAMILY PROPERTIES THAT EXIST ON THE EAST.
5:37:55PM THOSE ARE CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURES.
5:37:57PM THEY WERE RELOCATED BY THE PROPERTY OWNER WHO I BELIEVE IS
5:38:01PM HERE FROM THE METROPOLITAN MINISTRIES SITE.
5:38:05PM THEY ARE RELOCATING.
5:38:07PM THOSE REHABILITATIONS FUNDED THROUGH THE INTERSTATE HISTORIC
5:38:10PM PRESERVATION TRUST FUND WITH LOW-INTEREST LOANS.
5:38:13PM WE OBVIOUSLY IN PRESERVATION HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT HOW THOSE
5:38:18PM PROPERTIES ARE PERCEIVED.
5:38:20PM THE COMMISSION FELT THAT THE SCALE AND HEIGHT AND PROXIMITY
5:38:25PM OF THE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS INDICATED ALONG THE ORANGE
5:38:29PM HERE, JUST BETWEEN THE ALLEY AND THE SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCE
5:38:33PM WAS EXCESSIVE, AND THEY REQUESTED THAT THE SCALE OF THE
5:38:37PM BUILDING WHERE IT ABUTS SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES
5:38:39PM BE REDUCED TO THREE STORIES ABOVE AND ANYTHING ABOVE 35 FEET
5:38:45PM BEGIN TO STEP BACK ONE BY ONE.
5:38:47PM ONE FOOT FOR ONE FOOT.
5:38:48PM SO THEY WANTED A LOWER HEIGHT AND MORE SETBACK IN THAT AREA
5:38:52PM ABUTTING THE SINGLE-FAMILY.
5:38:54PM THEY ALSO REQUESTED THAT THE GRAND TREE THAT'S PROPOSED TO
5:38:57PM BE REMOVED BE PRESERVED EITHER ON-SITE OR THROUGH RELOCATION
5:39:01PM ON-SITE, EITHER THROUGH REDESIGN OR RELOCATION.
5:39:05PM THERE WAS A DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW THE TREES ON THE SITE ARE
5:39:10PM BEING REMOVED.
5:39:10PM ALONG THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDORS OF COLUMBUS DRIVE AND FLORIDA
5:39:16PM AVENUE, THERE IS A REQUEST TO MAINTAIN A FOUR-STORY VOLUME
5:39:22PM ALONG THOSE TWO CORRIDORS, AND THEN STEP BACK 10 FEET FOR
5:39:27PM THE HEIGHT TO CONTINUE UP, TO BREAK DOWN HISTORICALLY IN THE
5:39:33PM HISTORIC DISTRICT, YOU SAW THE PHOTOS.
5:39:35PM MAINLY TWO AND THREE STORY HEIGHT BUILDINGS AND THERE IS A
5:39:38PM DESIRE TO KIND OF MAINTAIN THAT SCALE, EVEN THOUGH ALLOWING
5:39:42PM FOR ADDITIONAL HEIGHT BEYOND THE SETBACK.
5:39:44PM THE LAST REQUEST WAS TO ADD A SIX-FOOT MASONRY WALL ALONG
5:39:50PM THE EASTERN PROPERTY LINE.
5:39:52PM I BELIEVE THAT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED ON THE REVISION SHEET.
5:39:57PM SO THERE IS A LOT OF DISCUSSION, A LOT OF CONDITIONS IN
5:39:59PM TRYING TO MASSAGE THIS PD TO ALLOW FOR REDEVELOPMENT THAT
5:40:03PM WAS SENSITIVE TO THE HISTORIC DISTRICT AND THE CORRIDOR.
5:40:08PM THAT CONCLUDES MY SUMMARY.
5:40:09PM I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
5:40:11PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: QUESTIONS?
5:40:12PM NO.
5:40:12PM APPLICANT.
5:40:40PM >> GOOD EVENING, MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL.

5:41:22PM IT'S AN IMPORTANT SITE.
5:41:24PM IT'S LOCATED AT THE INTERSECTION OF TWO MAJOR ARTERIAL

5:41:33PM AND THIS IS LOCATED ON TWO OF THEM.
5:41:35PM FLORIDA AND COLUMBUS AS I MENTIONED.

5:41:42PM 2002 BY A NEIGHBORHOOD STUDY AS THE TOWN CENTER, AS THE
5:41:48PM ACTIVITY CENTER.
5:41:48PM THE VAST MAJORITY OF CONVERSATIONS WE'VE HAD THROUGHOUT THE

5:41:57PM DEVELOPMENT WITH A SIGNIFICANT ADDITION OF HOUSING AT THIS
5:42:02PM INTERSECTION IN PARTICULAR.
5:42:05PM THAT'S LIKELY WHY BACK IN SEPTEMBER WE WERE ABLE TO SECURE
5:42:08PM UNANIMOUS APPROVAL OF A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT THAT
5:42:11PM ALLOWS US TO PROPOSE THE DEVELOPMENT IN FRONT OF YOU
5:42:14PM TONIGHT, WHICH INCLUDES A COMBINATION OF FIVE AND SIX
5:42:16PM STORIES, 208 APARTMENTS AND 4100 SQUARE FEET OF RETAIL AND
5:42:21PM STRUCTURED PARKING GARAGE WITH 350 SPACES.
5:42:25PM NOW, THE PARTICULAR QUALITIES OF THIS DEVELOPMENT THAT I'LL
5:42:28PM DETAIL TO YOU HIT ON DOZENS OF OBJECTIVES OF LAND USE
5:42:37PM POLICIES.
5:42:37PM I WON'T READ THESE IN DETAIL, BUT TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF
5:42:40PM WHAT I'M DISCUSSING, THESE BOXES THAT WE'RE CHECKING WITH
5:42:43PM THE DEVELOPMENT PROPOSED, THESE LAND USE POLICIES REQUEST
5:42:48PM PEDESTRIAN ORIENTED AND HIGH DENSITY DEVELOPMENT ALONG MIXED
5:42:51PM USE CORRIDORS, WALKABILITY, WIDE SIDEWALKS, RESIDENTIAL
5:42:55PM STOOPS, STREET TREES, UNDERGROUNDING OF UTILITIES, PROMOTING
5:43:00PM TRANSIT USE, ENCOURAGING NEW HOUSING ON UNDERUTILIZED LAND,
5:43:05PM DIRECTING TRAFFIC TOWARDS MAJOR ROADS AND VARIATION OF
5:43:07PM MASSING, ARTICULATION AND OPENINGS WITH THESE NEW BUILDINGS,
5:43:12PM AMONG OTHER OBJECTIVES.
5:43:13PM AS WE TALK FURTHER, IT WILL ALSO BECOME APPARENT THAT THERE
5:43:19PM ARE SOME SPECIFIC REQUESTS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WE
5:43:21PM COULDN'T MEET.
5:43:23PM THERE WERE MANY REQUESTS THAT WERE, IN FACT, IN DIRECT
5:43:26PM OPPOSITION WITH ONE ANOTHER.
5:43:29PM BUT WE BELIEVE IT IS OUR JOB AS DEVELOPERS TO LISTEN, TO
5:43:33PM FIND COMPROMISE AS BEST WE CAN AND MAKE THE CASE FOR THE
5:43:38PM DECISIONS THAT WE'VE MADE IN PURSUIT OF A DEVELOPMENT THAT
5:43:41PM IS WIDELY BENEFICIAL AND ONE THAT WE CAN DELIVER IN THE NEAR
5:43:46PM TERM IMMINENTLY.
5:43:49PM HERE WE HAVE GIVEN YOU A CLOSER VIEW OF WHAT WE'RE
5:43:52PM PROPOSING.
5:43:52PM WE'RE PROPOSING OUR MAIN ACCESS DRIVE, INTERNAL LOADING,
5:43:57PM SERVICE ACCESS ON COLUMBUS.
5:43:59PM WE ARE GREATLY ENHANCING THE STREETSCAPE AND THE WALKABILITY
5:44:04PM AROUND OUR PERIMETER, STARTING WITH 12-FOOT SIDEWALKS,
5:44:07PM STREETSCAPE, THE ADDITION OF A PLAZA, THE ADDITION OF AN
5:44:11PM ARCADE.
5:44:11PM THESE ARE ON FLORIDA AVENUE AND COLUMBUS DRIVES.
5:44:16PM ADDITIONALLY, GROUND FLOOR RETAIL.
5:44:18PM ON OUR TWO MAJOR CORNERS REALLY OUR ONLY EXTERIOR CORNERS.
5:44:23PM THE CORNER OF FLORIDA AVENUE AND COLUMBUS DRIVE AS WELL AS
5:44:26PM FLORIDA AND AMELIA.
5:44:28PM SPEAKING OF AMELIA, HERE WE FOCUSED ON CREATING RESIDENTIAL
5:44:33PM COMPATIBILITY.
5:44:33PM AMELIA IS ALONG THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF OUR SITE.
5:44:36PM WE OPEN OUR COURTYARDS SOUTHWARD.
5:44:39PM WE ARE PROPOSING WALK-UP UNITS, URBAN STOOPS.
5:44:43PM WE ARE ALSO TRANSITIONING TOWARDS THE SINGLE-FAMILY TO OUR
5:44:46PM EAST WITH A STEP-DOWN IN THE BUILDING HEIGHT FROM SIX
5:44:49PM STORIES TO FIVE.
5:44:50PM WE'RE ALSO ESTABLISHING A 15-FOOT UNOBSTRUCTED LANDSCAPE
5:44:53PM BUFFER OR A SETBACK, AND THAT'S A MINIMUM IN MANY LOCATIONS
5:44:59PM LIKE WHERE THE NUMBER 6 IS SHOWN, WE'RE AS FAR BACK AS 20
5:45:02PM FEET FROM THE PROPERTY LINE.
5:45:04PM ADDITIONALLY, WE'VE COMMITTED TO INSTALLING THE 6-FOOT
5:45:07PM OPAQUE MASONRY CONCRETE BLOCK WALL THAT WAS REQUESTED BY THE
5:45:12PM DRC.
5:45:13PM TO EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HOW WE GOT HERE, EVERY ONE OF
5:45:21PM FRAMEWORK'S DEVELOPMENTS IS CENTERED ON IDEA.
5:45:25PM BRAND IDENTITY OR BACKGROUND STORY.
5:45:26PM WE START BY ASKING WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT A NEIGHBORHOOD
5:45:29PM TODAY AND IN ITS PAST AND WHAT CAN WE DRAW FROM FOR
5:45:34PM INSPIRATION TO MAKE OUR NEW BUILDING SPECIAL AND MEANINGFUL.
5:45:38PM TAMPA HEIGHTS WAS REALLY TAMPA'S FIRST PROMINENT RESIDENTIAL
5:45:41PM SUBURB.
5:45:42PM FROM THE 1890s TO 1920s, HEIGHTS WAS THE PLACE WHERE THE
5:45:45PM MAJORITY OF CITY'S SOCIAL AND BUSINESS LEADERS MADE THEIR
5:45:49PM HOMES.
5:45:50PM AND THEY WERE VERY NICE HOMES.
5:45:52PM 1900 TAMPA TRIBUNE ARTICLE SHOWCASED TAMPA'S BEST HOMES AND
5:45:57PM 70% OF THEM WERE IN THE HEIGHTS.
5:46:00PM 70% OF THE HOMES IN THE YEAR 1900 WERE IN THE HEIGHTS.
5:46:03PM BACK THEN, RESIDENTS OF THE HEIGHTS COULD STROLL TREE-LINED
5:46:07PM STREETS AND BOARD STREETCARS TO GET TO DOWNTOWN TAMPA OR TO
5:46:11PM YBOR.
5:46:12PM AND THEN THE ADVENT OF THE AUTOMOBILE ESTABLISHED FLORIDA
5:46:15PM AND OTHER AVENUES AS COMMERCIAL ARTERIES INTO AND OUT OF
5:46:20PM TAMPA AND INTO AND OUT OF DOWNTOWN.
5:46:23PM 1909, DR. NEVE, THE NAMESAKE OF THE NEVE BLOCK, HE WAS A
5:46:28PM DENTIST AND WATCHMAKER.
5:46:30PM HE DEVELOPED OUR PARTICULAR BLOCK FROM A SINGLE STORY
5:46:33PM FARMHOUSE INTO WHAT HE CALLED A COMMUNITY CENTER.
5:46:35PM THAT INCLUDED CLOTHING STORES, A GROCERY STORE, PHARMACY AND
5:46:39PM ICE CREAM SHOP, ICE CREAM FACTORY AND EVEN A SAUSAGE-MAKING
5:46:43PM FACTORY.
5:46:44PM MANY OF THESE BUILDINGS HAD RESIDENTIAL FLATS ABOVE.
5:46:47PM ALTHOUGH LIKELY NOT THE SAUSAGE FACTORY.
5:46:50PM SO WE TAKE THESE ORIGIN STORIES AND WE SPIN THEM TOGETHER
5:46:56PM INTO A BIG IDEA.
5:46:57PM THE BIG IDEA THAT I MENTIONED.
5:46:59PM YOU SEE IT COMING TOGETHER HERE.
5:47:00PM IT'S LOADED WITH INSPIRATION IMAGES, SOME HISTORIC, SOME
5:47:03PM CONTEMPORARY.
5:47:04PM IT'S COMING TOGETHER AS A VIBE AND A FEELING AND, OF COURSE,
5:47:09PM COLOR PALETTE ACROSS THE BOTTOM.
5:47:13PM IN THE DESIGN THAT WE PROPOSED, YOU'LL SEE THE 1920s AND
5:47:16PM 1930s ERA MERCANTILE ARCHITECTURE STYLES THAT CHARACTERIZE
5:47:21PM THE BUILDINGS THAT ONCE STOOD ON THIS BLOCK.
5:47:24PM WE'RE MAKING KEY ARCHITECTURAL MOVES SUCH AS ARCHED WINDOWS
5:47:28PM AND OPENINGS TO OUR ARCADE, THE USE OF MASONRY AND USE OF
5:47:34PM MASONRY DETAILS LIKE BANDING AND COINING.
5:47:38PM HEAVY CORNICE ACCENTS AND PARAPET ORNAMENTATION TOO.
5:47:42PM WE MANAGED TO INCORPORATE THOSE INTO A HIGH DENSITY BUILDING
5:47:46PM THAT BELONGS IN THIS LOCATION.
5:47:48PM BUT WE BREAK THAT MASSING UP WITH A TIERED BUILDING DESIGN,
5:47:51PM COURTYARDS AND DEEP BUILDING RESOURCES AS WELL.
5:47:55PM RECESSES.
5:47:56PM EXCUSE ME.
5:47:57PM OUR COMMUNITY OUTREACH HAS BEEN EXTENSIVE AND FAR-REACHING.
5:48:03PM WE'VE BEEN AT IT FOR NEARLY A YEAR DATING BACK TO DECEMBER
5:48:06PM OF 2023.
5:48:07PM WE FOCUSED DISCUSSIONS, OF COURSE, WITH THE TAMPA HEIGHTS
5:48:10PM CIVIC ASSOCIATION AND YOU'LL SEE ALL THE VARIOUS LAND USE
5:48:13PM COMMITTEE HEARINGS, GENERAL MEETINGS, BOARD MEETINGS THAT
5:48:16PM WE'VE ATTENDED LISTED HERE.
5:48:18PM IT DOESN'T COUNT ALL OF THE COUNTLESS E-MAILS AND PHONE
5:48:22PM CONVERSATIONS WE'VE HAD WITH DIFFERENT BOARD MEMBERS.
5:48:26PM OF COURSE, WE'VE DISCUSSED OUR PLANS WITH MULTITUDE OF
5:48:29PM COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS ONE ON ONE.
5:48:30PM WE KNOCKED ON DOORS.
5:48:32PM WE HANDED OUT FLYERS.
5:48:33PM WE HAD CONVERSATIONS.
5:48:34PM AS I MENTIONED AT THE TOP, WE WEREN'T ALWAYS ABLE TO SAY YES
5:48:41PM TO THE FEEDBACK WE RECEIVED, SOME OF THE REQUESTS WERE IN
5:48:43PM OPPOSITION.
5:48:43PM THEY WERE MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE.
5:48:47PM OTHERS INFEASIBLE.
5:48:48PM WE DID OUR BEST TO FIND MIDDLE GROUNDS.
5:48:51PM WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING HERE IS A DEVELOPMENT THAT REPRESENTS
5:48:53PM GREAT COMPROMISE AND ONE THAT WE CAN COMMIT TO MAKING A
5:48:57PM REALITY IN THE NEAR TERM.
5:48:59PM SO LET'S GET INTO SOME OF THOSE DETAILS.
5:49:01PM WE WERE ASKED TO CREATE MORE NEIGHBORHOOD RETAIL.
5:49:06PM IN RESPONSE, WE ADDED RETAIL AT THE CORNER OF FLORIDA AND
5:49:10PM AMELIA.
5:49:11PM WE DEMISED AND WE MODIFIED OUR RETAIL ON FLORIDA AND
5:49:15PM COLUMBUS, WHAT WE HAD ALREADY PROPOSED, TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE
5:49:20PM NEIGHBORHOOD USERS THAT INDIVIDUALS HAD EXPRESSED INTEREST
5:49:23PM IN.
5:49:23PM IS IT WHAT EVERYONE WANTS?
5:49:27PM NO, IT IS NOT.
5:49:29PM MAJOR CHALLENGE, WE HAVE LIMITED GROWTH SQUARE FOOTAGE TO
5:49:32PM WORK WITH AND WE NEED RESIDENTIAL APARTMENTS TO MAKE THIS
5:49:35PM WORK.
5:49:35PM 208 APARTMENTS AS WE'VE PROPOSED HERE IS BARELY VIABLE.
5:49:40PM YOU DON'T SEE A LOT OF APARTMENTS OF THIS SIZE BECAUSE IT'S
5:49:43PM VERY DIFFICULT TO MAKE THE NUMBERS WORK, THE COST THAT IT
5:49:45PM TAKES TO RUN ONE OF THESE PROPERTIES MAKES IT BORDER LINE
5:49:49PM INFEASIBLE.
5:49:50PM I'LL MENTION TOO THAT WE STARTED THIS ENDEAVOR IN OUR
5:49:55PM DISCUSSIONS WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH A SINGLE STOREFRONT
5:49:59PM AT THE CORNER OF FLORIDA AND COLUMBUS AND NOW BOTH POSSIBLE
5:50:02PM CORNERS FEATURE RETAIL, AS I MENTIONED.
5:50:04PM WE MODIFIED IT.
5:50:06PM DEMISED IT.
5:50:07PM WE STRETCHED AND ACCOMMODATED WHAT WE COULD IN RESPONSE TO
5:50:09PM THE FEEDBACK.
5:50:10PM WE WERE ASKED TO ENHANCE PEDESTRIAN EXPERIENCE AND SAFETY.
5:50:18PM WE ADDED 12-FOOT SIDEWALKS.
5:50:20PM THAT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT OF COLUMBUS DRIVE.
5:50:22PM WE ADDED THE MID BLOCK PLAZA THAT'S SHOWN IN THE IMAGE HERE.
5:50:26PM WE ADDED AN ARCADE ON FLORIDA AVENUE.
5:50:29PM ALSO TURNS ON COLUMBUS DRIVE AS WELL.
5:50:32PM AND WE ADDED STREET TREES TO CREATE SHADE, A NICE RESPITE
5:50:37PM FROM THE SUN.
5:50:38PM WE'RE GRATEFUL OF THE DISCUSSIONS WE'VE HAD ON THE TOPICS.
5:50:40PM WE'RE HAPPY WITH THE CHANGES AND THE IMPROVEMENTS WE'VE
5:50:43PM MADE.
5:50:43PM I THINK WE MADE SOME INTERESTING PUBLIC SPACES, RESPITE FROM
5:50:46PM THE SUN AND HEAT LIKE I MENTIONED.
5:50:48PM ALL THE DIFFERENT SOURCES OF SHADE AND A SAFE AND ENJOYABLE
5:50:53PM EXPERIENCE FOR PEDESTRIANS AND BICYCLISTS TOO.
5:50:56PM WE WERE ASKED TO KEEP LOADING AND SOLID WASTE MANEUVERING
5:50:59PM OUT OF THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.
5:51:01PM WE STARTED WITH THE SITE PLAN SHOWN AT TOP HERE.
5:51:05PM WE ROTATED THAT LOADING INWARD AND CREATED AN INTERNAL DRIVE
5:51:10PM TO PULL THOSE SERVICES COMPLETELY OFF THE STREET, SOMETHING
5:51:13PM THAT WE WERE HAPPY TO DO.
5:51:15PM IT WAS EXPRESSED THAT OUR DRIVEWAY MAY BE TOO CLOSE TO THE
5:51:20PM INTERSECTION OF COLUMBUS AND FLORIDA.
5:51:23PM AND IN RESPONSE, WE SHIFTED THAT DRIVEWAY AS FAR EAST AS WE
5:51:27PM COULD, NEARLY 20 FEET AND WE RECONFIGURED THE ENTRANCE TO
5:51:32PM OUR GARAGE HERE.
5:51:34PM THE ORIGINAL DISTANCE MET CODE REQUIREMENTS.
5:51:36PM IT RECEIVED NO OBJECTION FROM THE CITY.
5:51:39PM REGARDLESS, IN RESPONSE, WE MADE THIS ACCOMMODATION.
5:51:43PM I'LL MENTION AGAIN WE INCREASED THE WIDTH OF THE SIDEWALKS
5:51:46PM ON COLUMBUS TO 12 FEET, WHICH WILL HELP VISIBILITY IN BOTH
5:51:49PM DIRECTIONS FROM PEDESTRIANS AND BICYCLISTS TO DRIVERS AND
5:51:54PM VICE VERSA.
5:51:55PM WE WERE ASKED TO FOCUS ON COMPATIBILITY WITH ADJACENT
5:52:02PM SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES.
5:52:03PM BEAR WITH ME BECAUSE I AM GOING TO READ FROM THE LAND USE
5:52:07PM POLICY A LITTLE BIT HERE, BUT I THINK IT STRESSES THE BIG
5:52:11PM IDEA.
5:52:12PM LAND USE POLICY 2.1.2 SAYS USE LIMITED LAND RESOURCES MORE
5:52:16PM EFFICIENTLY BY ENCOURAGING INFILL DEVELOPMENT ON VACANT AND
5:52:18PM UNDERUTILIZED SITES.
5:52:20PM POLICY 6.1 CALLS FOR THE TRANSFORMATION OF MAJOR CORRIDORS
5:52:25PM LIKE WE'RE DISCUSSING HERE INTO A BROADER MIX OF USES THAT
5:52:29PM PROVIDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR HIGH DENSITY HOUSING WHILE
5:52:32PM ADDRESSING THE NEED FOR RETAIL AND SERVICES.
5:52:35PM IN THE BIG PICTURE, WE ARE DROPPING DEVELOPMENT DENSITY
5:52:39PM RIGHT ON THE BULL'S-EYE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AT THE
5:52:42PM INTERSECTION OF TWO COMMERCIAL CORRIDORS, TWO MAJOR ARTERIAL
5:52:47PM ROADS AT WHAT THE NEIGHBORHOOD ENVISIONS AS ITS TOWN CENTER,
5:52:51PM AT WHAT HISTORICALLY HAS BEEN ITS TOWN CENTER.
5:52:54PM WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE LAST FEW DECADES.
5:52:56PM HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD ONCE CHARACTERIZED BY RESIDENTIAL
5:53:02PM BUNGALOWS AND MAIN STREET RETAIL NOW DESIRES DENSITY AND
5:53:08PM AGREES THIS IS WHERE IT SHOULD GO.
5:53:10PM ALL THE CONVERSATIONS WE'RE HAVING, THE NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN,
5:53:12PM THIS MARRIAGE OF DENSITY WITH HISTORIC HOMES AND HISTORIC
5:53:15PM BUILDINGS IS NECESSARY.
5:53:18PM LAND USE POLICY 6.1.6 HOWEVER STRESSES THE NEED FOR
5:53:23PM COMPATIBILITY.
5:53:24PM I SUBMIT TO YOU THAT WE HAVE DONE THAT.
5:53:26PM WE HAVE PAID ATTENTION TO THAT THROUGH MASSING, HEIGHT, AND
5:53:30PM LANDSCAPING AS THE LAND USE POLICY REQUIRES.
5:53:33PM THROUGH HEIGHT AND MASSING, WE REDUCED PORTIONS OF OUR
5:53:37PM EASTERN WING, THE ONE SHOWN HERE, FROM SIX STORIES TO FIVE
5:53:41PM THAT HAS COMPLICATED OUR BUILDING.
5:53:42PM IT HAS MADE IT LESS EFFICIENT.
5:53:44PM MADE IT MORE EXPENSIVE BUT WE HAVE DONE IT.
5:53:47PM WE BROKE UP MASSING WITH ADDITIONAL TIERS AS WELL.
5:53:51PM REGARDING OUR SETBACKS, I MENTIONED 15-FOOT UNOBSTRUCTED
5:53:56PM LANDSCAPE BUFFER ACTUALLY IN EXCESS OF THAT IN SOME
5:53:59PM LOCATIONS.
5:53:59PM WE COMMITTED BUILDING SIX FOOT MASONRY WALL.
5:54:02PM AS A BONUS WE ORIENTED OUR COURTYARD SOUTH CREATING THE
5:54:06PM OPPORTUNITY FOR RESIDENTIAL STOOPS.
5:54:08PM WE DECIDED AGAINST PUTTING ANY COMMERCIAL TRAFFIC ON THIS
5:54:12PM STREET AND WE CHOSE COLUMBUS INSTEAD.
5:54:14PM REGARDING THE ARC, WE WERE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE SOME OF THEIR
5:54:22PM REQUESTS BUT NOT ALL.
5:54:23PM RIGHT-HAND SIDE LISTING ONES COULDN'T.
5:54:25PM ASKING TONIGHT TO SOLIDIFY THE BUILDING MASSING AND SETBACKS
5:54:28PM BECAUSE WE NEED FINALITY WITH RESPECT TO OUR DEVELOPMENT
5:54:32PM PLAN AND THE UNIT COUNT.
5:54:34PM BUILDING HEIGHT REDUCTION I ALREADY TALKED ABOUT.
5:54:36PM TEN FOOT SETBACK REQUESTED BY THE ARC IS IN DIRECT
5:54:40PM OPPOSITION OF MUCH OF THE FEEDBACK THAT WE RECEIVED FROM THE
5:54:44PM NEIGHBORHOOD, INDIVIDUALS WHO ENCOURAGE US TO CONCENTRATE
5:54:46PM MASSING AND BUILDING HEIGHT, SPECIFICALLY ON FLORIDA, UP TO
5:54:50PM 7, 8 PLUS STORIES.
5:54:52PM THAT'S DIRECTLY OPPOSED AND, OF COURSE, WE ARE PROPOSING THE
5:54:56PM SIX STORY BUILDING ALONG THAT ELEVATION.
5:55:00PM LASTLY, THE TWO WAIVERS THAT WE HAVE REQUESTED, ONE IS FOR
5:55:05PM TREE RETENTION AS A JUSTIFICATION, WE'RE PROVIDING ONE AND A
5:55:08PM HALF TIMES THE GREENSPACE REQUIRED.
5:55:10PM REGARDING LOADING BERTHS, WE ARE PROPOSING TWO LOADING
5:55:14PM BERTHS AS REQUIRED.
5:55:15PM ONE IS MEANT -- REQUESTED TO BE 12 BY 60.
5:55:19PM WE'RE PROVIDING 12 BY 30.
5:55:21PM THIS IS COMMON OF URBAN MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENTS OF THIS
5:55:25PM SIZE.
5:55:25PM AGAIN, IT'S OFF THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.
5:55:27PM THANK YOU FOR HEARING ME OUT AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO FURTHER
5:55:34PM DISCUSSION ON THIS TOPIC.
5:55:35PM THANK YOU.
5:55:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
5:55:38PM COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK.
5:55:41PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION.
5:55:44PM THERE ARE TWO POINTS THAT CONCERN ME MOST OF ALL, ESPECIALLY
5:55:48PM WHEN YOU START TALKING ABOUT VIABILITY, MAKING THE NUMBERS.
5:55:53PM I UNDERSTAND YOUR STACK.
5:55:56PM YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE IT WORK, BUT WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IN
5:56:00PM THAT IS THAT IF I'M CORRECT AND I DIDN'T GET THE EXACT
5:56:04PM NUMBER, YOU'RE REQUIRED TO HAVE 200 SOME ODD PARKING SPACES
5:56:09PM AND YOU HAVE CONSIDERABLY MORE THAN THAT.
5:56:11PM I KNOW THAT THE COST OF AN INDIVIDUAL PARKING SPACE FOR
5:56:15PM STRUCTURED PARKING IS LIKE $50,000 A SPACE.
5:56:18PM SO IN RESPECT TO THAT, YOU'RE KIND OF DOING IT TO YOURSELF
5:56:23PM WHEN YOU'RE ADDING TOO MUCH PARKING.
5:56:26PM AND YOU HAVE TOO MUCH PARKING.
5:56:28PM AND IF YOU BELIEVE YOU NEED THAT MUCH PARKING, THAT'S
5:56:32PM SOMETHING THAT I COMPLETELY DON'T UNDERSTAND, IF YOU ARE
5:56:37PM STRUGGLING WITH MAKING THIS WORK FINANCIALLY, BUT YET YOU'RE
5:56:40PM ADDING WHAT IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE PART OF BUILDING THIS.
5:56:47PM CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHY YOU HAVE SO MUCH MORE PARKING?
5:56:50PM >> SURE, SURE.
5:56:51PM SO WE HAVE A DEVELOPMENT PORTFOLIO CONSISTING OF THOUSANDS
5:56:57PM OF UNITS ACROSS THE STATE, 1500 OR SO HERE IN TAMPA.
5:57:02PM OUR EXPERIENCE TELLS US THAT WE NEED TO CREATE BASICALLY A
5:57:07PM SCIENTIFIC CALCULATION OF HOW MANY PARKING SPACES WE HAVE
5:57:11PM FOR STUDIO, ONE BEDROOM, TWO AND THREE.
5:57:15PM WE RUN THE NUMBERS.
5:57:16PM THAT GETS TO US 340 PARKING SPACES FOR THE APARTMENTS.
5:57:19PM THAT'S 1.63 PARKING RATIO.
5:57:22PM YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
5:57:23PM PARKING IS EXPENSIVE.
5:57:24PM WE DON'T WANT TO BUILD IT IF WE DON'T HAVE TO BUT WE FEEL WE
5:57:29PM HAVE TO BASED ON OUR EXPERIENCE, BASED ON THE LOCATION, THE
5:57:34PM BEDROOM/BATHROOM COUNT, TENANT PROFILE.
5:57:38PM WE ALSO DON'T WANT TO CREATE ISSUES FOR THE SURROUNDING
5:57:41PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
5:57:41PM WE ALSO DON'T WANT TO UNDERPARK THIS AND HAVE RESIDENTS PARK
5:57:44PM WHEREVER THEY WANT.
5:57:45PM WE'RE TRYING TO AVOID THAT TOO.
5:57:48PM ON THE SUBJECT OF FEASIBILITY, AS YOU MENTIONED, THE
5:57:52PM SCIENTIFIC SORT OF APPROACH, THE CALCULATION OF SPACES PER
5:57:55PM BEDROOM, THIS IS WHAT IS EXPECTED OF US WHEN IT COMES TO
5:57:59PM DISCUSSIONS WITH INVESTORS, WITH THE LENDER.
5:58:02PM WE CAN'T PROPOSE SOMETHING THAT IS AN OUTLIER, ONE SPACE PER
5:58:07PM UNIT OR ON THE OTHER SIDE, TWO AND A HALF SPACES PER UNIT.
5:58:10PM IT HAS TO MAKE LOGICAL SENSE.
5:58:13PM OUR EXPERIENCE TELLS US THIS MAKES LOGICAL SENSE AND IT'S
5:58:15PM NOT GOING TO BE AN ISSUE WITH OUR LEASING PERFORMANCE.
5:58:18PM NOT GOING TO BE AN ISSUE WITH OUR RETENTION.
5:58:20PM IT'S GOING TO BE FUNCTIONAL.
5:58:22PM IF IN THE FUTURE WE DON'T NEED THESE SPACES, WE'LL FIND
5:58:25PM ALTERNATIVES IF WE HAVE TO.
5:58:28PM PARKING FOR OTHER BUSINESSES AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THINGS
5:58:31PM OF THAT NATURE.
5:58:32PM BUT FOR NOW, GIVEN OUR EXPERIENCE, THIS IS WHAT'S REQUIRED.
5:58:36PM >>LYNN HURTAK: SECONDLY, HOW OFTEN DO YOU TRAVERSE FLORIDA
5:58:41PM AVENUE AROUND 5 P.M.?
5:58:44PM >> NOT ALL THAT FREQUENTLY PERSONALLY.
5:58:47PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WELL, IF YOU DID -- IF YOU HAVEN'T TRAVERSED
5:58:56PM THAT, FLORIDA AVENUE AT COLUMBUS AT 5 P.M. IS ABSOLUTELY
5:59:01PM GRIDLOCKED.
5:59:04PM I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT AN INGRESS AND EGRESS EVEN A
5:59:08PM HUNDRED FEET PAST THAT.
5:59:11PM I MEAN, IT'S GRIDLOCK NOW WITH NOTHING THERE.
5:59:17PM I'M CURIOUS WHY YOU CHOSE NOT TO PUT IT ON AMELIA, WHICH
5:59:21PM MAKES A LOT MORE SENSE.
5:59:24PM I KNOW COLUMBUS ISN'T AN F.D.O.T. ROAD, OTHERWISE F.D.O.T.
5:59:31PM WOULDN'T ALLOW YOU TO DO IT.
5:59:35PM I HAVE A REAL HARD TIME WITH IT.
5:59:38PM IT'S NOT THE INGRESS I'M HAVING THE DIFFICULTY WITH BECAUSE
5:59:41PM TURNING OFF INTO THE SECTION, THE EXTRA SPACE YOU HAVE MAKES
5:59:45PM PERFECT SENSE.
5:59:45PM IT'S PEOPLE TRYING TO GET OUT AT A RUSH HOUR TIME.
5:59:53PM >> OKAY.
5:59:54PM WELL, THE DECISION TO ORIENT, FIRST, IT IS OUR PARKING
6:00:00PM GARAGE PUSHED NORTH AND THEN THE VEHICULAR INGRESS/EGRESS ON
6:00:04PM COLUMBUS.
6:00:05PM IT STARTED WITH THE BUILDING PLANNING PROCESS, THE SITE
6:00:08PM PLANNING PROCESS.
6:00:09PM I'VE TALKED ABOUT VIABILITY, BUT A MAJOR DRIVER OF THAT IN
6:00:15PM SITE PLANNING THESE BUILDINGS IS HOW DO WE MAKE THEM MOST
6:00:17PM EFFICIENT?
6:00:18PM WE MAKE THEM MOST EFFICIENT BY INTRODUCING WHAT WE CALL
6:00:21PM DOUBLE-LOADED CORRIDORS WHERE YOU HAVE A SINGLE CORRIDOR
6:00:25PM SERVING APARTMENTS ON EITHER SIDE.
6:00:26PM WE START WITH THE DESIRE TO INCORPORATE THOSE.
6:00:30PM OF COURSE, THOSE CREATE COURTYARDS, AND IT WAS MOST
6:00:33PM ADVANTAGEOUS, MOST DESIRABLE IN OUR VIEW TO OPEN THOSE
6:00:37PM SOUTHWARD.
6:00:38PM ANOTHER BENEFIT OF THAT, AS I MENTIONED, IS THAT WE PROMOTE
6:00:41PM THAT RESIDENTIAL FEEL ON AMELIA WITH THE URBAN STOOPS, WITH
6:00:46PM THE OPEN COURTYARDS AND TIERED BUILDING DESIGN.
6:00:50PM SO IT KEEPS BOTH VEHICULAR TRAFFIC OFF OF AMELIA AND IT
6:00:55PM GIVES US THE CHARACTER THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR THERE.
6:01:01PM >>LYNN HURTAK: YEAH.
6:01:04PM WE'VE HAD SO MANY OF THESE COME TO US.
6:01:08PM I'LL BE HONEST, MOST OF THEM BUILD UPON OTHERS, ESPECIALLY
6:01:12PM BECAUSE I KNOW THERE IS A DEVELOPMENT VERY CLOSE BY THAT DID
6:01:15PM A LOT OF THIS WITH LESS PARKING AND ALL SORTS OF STUFF.
6:01:19PM I'M DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS OVERALL.
6:01:26PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
6:01:27PM ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
6:01:27PM NO.
6:01:28PM I'LL OPEN IT UP TO PUBLIC COMMENT.
6:01:31PM I SAW A FEW PEOPLE WALK IN A FEW MINUTES AGO.
6:01:38PM IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEAK AND YOU WALKED IN AFTER I SWEAR
6:01:43PM EVERYBODY IN, CAN YOU PLEASE STAND REAL QUICK AND RAISE YOUR
6:01:45PM RIGHT HAND AND WE'LL SWEAR YOU IN?
6:01:47PM ANYBODY ELSE WALK IN?
6:01:54PM THERE YOU GO.
6:01:58PM [OATH ADMINISTERED]
6:02:01PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ALL RIGHT.
6:02:02PM IF YOU'RE GOING TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM, PLEASE LINE UP HERE
6:02:05PM AND WE'LL TAKE YOU ONE BY ONE.
6:02:07PM YES, MA'AM, COME UP.
6:02:07PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
6:02:09PM >> THANK YOU.
6:02:10PM MY NAME IS MAUREEN ARILL.
6:02:13PM 3401 BAYSHORE BOULEVARD, TAMPA, FLORIDA.
6:02:16PM GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MEMBERS.
6:02:19PM I HAVE BEEN IN FRONT OF YOU SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST.
6:02:24PM I HAVE FOUR ADDRESSES ONE BLOCK NORTH.
6:02:28PM AND I GO THROUGH FLORIDA AND COLUMBUS FREQUENTLY.
6:02:34PM I'LL GET BACK TO THAT.
6:02:35PM ANYWAY, MY ADDRESSES ARE 2740, 42, 44, 46.
6:02:41PM I'M HERE TO SPEAK NOT JUST FOR MYSELF BUT ALSO FOR MY
6:02:45PM TENANTS WHO HAVE BEEN HOPING AND PRAYING FOR SOME SORT OF
6:02:50PM RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IN THIS PARTICULAR CORNER.
6:02:55PM CURRENTLY, THE ONLY LANDMARKS THAT WE HAVE TO SHARE WITH
6:02:59PM CLIENTS OF THE TENANTS IS THE RAINBOW COLORED DOWNTOWN MOTEL
6:03:05PM AND THE CHURCH NEXT DOOR THAT GOT DAMAGED FROM THE SHOOT-OUT
6:03:09PM ONE YEAR AGO WHEN THE POLICE KILLED SOME SORT OF CRIMINAL.
6:03:13PM ANYWAY, I BRING THIS UP BECAUSE THIS IS A CHALLENGING AREA.
6:03:19PM WE ENTHUSIASTICALLY SUPPORT THIS DEVELOPMENT AND FEEL IT IS
6:03:25PM COURAGEOUS, TO SAY THE LEAST.
6:03:28PM AS STOREFRONTS THAT HAVE NO PARKING IN FRONT OF THEM BECAUSE
6:03:32PM WE'RE RIGHT ON FLORIDA AVENUE, THIS WILL BE A GAME-CHANGER.
6:03:35PM WE HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR PEDESTRIANS, WHICH WE HAVE NEVER
6:03:40PM HAD UNLESS THEY ARE STUMBLING OUT OF THE MOTEL.
6:03:45PM WE CAN'T WAIT FOR HIGHLY FUNCTIONING NEIGHBORS WHO CAN COME
6:03:52PM IN AND SUPPORT OUR BUSINESSES.
6:03:55PM LUCKY CAT YOGA, WHICH MANY OF YOU MAY KNOW, HAPPENED TO BE
6:03:59PM HAVING A YOGA CLASS WHEN THE SHOOT-OUT OCCURRED LAST YEAR
6:04:04PM AND THE POLICE WENT IN THROUGH THE BACK AND VACATED ALL THE
6:04:08PM YOGA STUDENTS FOR THEIR SAFETY.
6:04:10PM THIS IS A CHALLENGING AREA.
6:04:13PM THESE ARE CRAZY TIMES, AND ANYTHING THAT'S GOING TO BRING
6:04:17PM RESIDENTS TO OUR CORNER IS SOMETHING THAT WE SUPPORT.
6:04:20PM THAT'S REALLY ALL I HAVE TO SAY.
6:04:23PM THANK YOU.
6:04:23PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
6:04:24PM MR. FERNANDEZ, COME ON UP.
6:04:27PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
6:04:31PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
6:04:33PM MY NAME IS RICK FERNANDEZ, PRESIDENT OF THE TAMPA HEIGHTS
6:04:36PM CIVIC ASSOCIATION.
6:04:37PM GOOD TO SEE YOU ALL.
6:04:38PM I'M HERE TO SPEAK ON YOUR AGENDA ITEM 3, REZ 24-52.
6:04:46PM OUR BOARD'S POSITION EXPRESSING CONDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR THE
6:04:51PM REZONING AS SENT OUT IN THE E-MAIL, SENT OUT TO YOU FOLKS ON
6:04:56PM NOVEMBER 8.
6:04:56PM I INCORPORATE THAT E-MAIL FULLY BY REFERENCE HERE.
6:04:59PM I DO HAVE A COPY OF IT, IF ANYONE WOULD CARE TO HAVE IT AS
6:05:02PM PART OF THE RECORD.
6:05:03PM WE SEE THIS AS A GOOD PROJECT BY FRAMEWORK.
6:05:09PM THAT COULD BE MADE BETTER FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE SURROUNDING
6:05:13PM COMMUNITY.
6:05:13PM FULL SUPPORT IF YOU REVIEW THE LETTER IS CONTINGENT ON FOUR
6:05:18PM CHANGES TO THE PD PLAN, TWO OF WHICH HAVE ALREADY BEEN
6:05:21PM DISCUSSED BY COUNCIL HURTAK.
6:05:23PM THE FIRST, PARKING SHOULD NOT BE ABOVE THE CODE MINIMUM.
6:05:27PM SECOND, THE GARAGE RAMP SHOULD BE FURTHER FROM THE
6:05:31PM INTERSECTION OF COLUMBUS AND FLORIDA.
6:05:33PM WE HAVE SUGGESTED PLACEMENT ON AMELIA TO THE SOUTH.
6:05:38PM FOURTH, MORE COMMERCIAL USE SHOULD BE INCLUDED ON THE GROUND
6:05:42PM FLOOR.
6:05:42PM AND FOURTH, THE DEVELOPER SHOULD SET ASIDE 10% OF UNITS FOR
6:05:47PM AFFORDABLE WORKFORCE HOUSING.
6:05:49PM ESPECIALLY WHEREAS HERE CBD PERIPHERY DENSITY BONUSES ARE
6:05:55PM AWARDED.
6:05:56PM THESE PROPOSED CHANGES ARE INFORMED BY THE RECOMMENDATIONS
6:05:59PM OF OUR LAND USE COMMITTEE, CHAIRED BY BRIAN SEAL, WHO I
6:06:02PM THINK IS FAMILIAR TO ALL OF YOU.
6:06:05PM AND ADOPTED BY OUR BOARD FOLLOWING SEVERAL MEETINGS WITH THE
6:06:08PM DEVELOPERS AT FRAMEWORK.
6:06:10PM TO BE CLEAR, FRAMEWORK HAS INTERACTED WITH THE TAMPA HEIGHTS
6:06:14PM CIVIC ASSOCIATION AT A HEALTHY LEVEL.
6:06:17PM I'M NOT CASTING ASPERSIONS ON THE DEVELOPERS HERE.
6:06:20PM WE HAVE SIMPLY REACHED AN IMPASSE.
6:06:23PM MAYBE YOU CAN HELP US BRIDGE THE GAP.
6:06:26PM ON ITS FACE, THE PROJECT APPEARS SOLID.
6:06:28PM I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY WE HAVE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY HERE
6:06:31PM IN FULL SUPPORT.
6:06:32PM OUR BOARD'S POSITION IS BASED IN LARGE PART ON AN
6:06:36PM UNDERSTANDING OF THE TAMPA HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN DATING
6:06:38PM BACK TO 2003, WHICH ENVISIONS THE COLUMBUS DRIVE CORRIDOR AS
6:06:43PM THE MAIN COMMERCIAL TOWN CENTER FOR OUR COMMUNITY.
6:06:47PM IT'S IMPORTANT TO HAVE BUSINESSES AND SERVICES IN TAMPA
6:06:50PM HEIGHTS, THAT TAMPA HEIGHTS RESIDENTS CAN ACCESS FROM ALL
6:06:55PM FOUR QUADRANTS OF THE FLORIDA/COLUMBUS INTERSECTION.
6:06:59PM THE KEY TO SUCCESSFUL, WALKABLE CORRIDORS IS THE FULL
6:07:03PM PUBLICLY ACTIVATED STOREFRONT THAT DRAWS IN FROM THE
6:07:08PM SURROUNDING BLOCKS.
6:07:09PM THIS PLAN FALLS SHORT.
6:07:12PM WHILE THE ABOVE LISTED MODIFICATIONS -- OR WITH THE ABOVE
6:07:15PM LISTED MODIFICATIONS, TAMPA HEIGHTS CIVIC ASSOCIATION WOULD
6:07:18PM BE FULLY SUPPORTIVE OF THIS REZONING.
6:07:21PM WE ASK YOU TO WEIGH THE ISSUES AND REQUEST CHANGES BETWEEN
6:07:25PM FIRST AND SECOND READING.
6:07:27PM THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.
6:07:29PM WOULD YOU CARE FOR A COPY OF THE LETTER, COUNCIL?
6:07:32PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SURE.
6:07:33PM BRING IT ON UP, SIR.
6:07:35PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
6:07:36PM NEXT SPEAKER, YES, SIR, COME ON UP AND PLEASE STATE YOUR
6:07:38PM NAME.
6:07:38PM >> MY NAME IS LOU VILAROSA.
6:07:42PM I'M HERE TO SUPPORT COUNCILPERSON HURTAK'S COMMENTS ON
6:07:49PM TRAFFIC.
6:07:49PM VOLUNTEER TUTOR AT ACADEMY PREP SCHOOL ON THE CORNER OF
6:07:53PM 15th STREET AND COLUMBUS DRIVE.
6:07:56PM I HAVE TO GET THERE TO TUTOR A STUDENT IN THE AFTERNOON.
6:08:00PM I LIVE ON THE WEST SIDE OF TOWN.
6:08:03PM COLUMBUS DRIVE IS ONE-WAY TRAFFIC FROM NORTH BOULEVARD ALL
6:08:07PM THE WAY TO 15th STREET.
6:08:09PM I'VE GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE I DON'T EVEN TRY TO GO
6:08:12PM THROUGH THERE.
6:08:12PM I GO TO NORTH BOULEVARD.
6:08:14PM I MAKE A RIGHT TURN.
6:08:15PM I GO ALL THE WAY TO PALM AVENUE, CUT MY WAY AROUND THE
6:08:19PM BACKSIDE AND COME BACK TO 15th STREET.
6:08:22PM OTHERWISE IT IS AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE AND IT'S DANGEROUS.
6:08:27PM I HIGHLY SUPPORT COUNCILMAN HURTAK'S COMMENT.
6:08:32PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: MAYBE I MISHEARD YOU SAY COLUMBUS DRIVE
6:08:36PM IS ONE WAY.
6:08:36PM >> IT'S ONE WAY EACH WAY.
6:08:38PM EACH WAY.
6:08:39PM BECAUSE THE HOUSING CANNOT BE EXPANDED ALL THE WAY TO YBOR
6:08:43PM CITY.
6:08:43PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I GOT IT.
6:08:44PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: EAST BOULEVARD, IT GETS --
6:08:46PM >> THANK YOU.
6:08:46PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
6:08:47PM SIR.
6:08:47PM YES, MA'AM, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
6:08:49PM >> GOOD EVENING.
6:08:50PM ERIN McKINNAN.
6:08:52PM I LIVE AT 2212 NORTH MORGAN STREET IN TAMPA HEIGHTS.
6:08:56PM HERE TO EXPRESS MY STRONG SUPPORT FOR THE REDEVELOPMENT
6:08:59PM PROJECT BY THE FRAMEWORK GROUP WHICH I BELIEVE WILL ENRICH
6:09:03PM OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
6:09:04PM OVER THE PAST YEAR, THE FRAMEWORK GROUP HAS SHOWN A REAL
6:09:08PM COMMITMENT TO ENGAGING WITH THE HEIGHTS.
6:09:09PM THEY THOUGHTFULLY INTEGRATED ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN, RETAIL
6:09:12PM SPACE AND PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY FEATURES THAT ALIGN WITH OUR
6:09:15PM NEIGHBORHOOD'S CHARACTER AND VALUES.
6:09:16PM THEIR PLANS ALSO INCLUDE -- THIS IS MY FAVORITE PART --
6:09:20PM UNDERGROUND STORMWATER DETENTION SYSTEM WHICH APPARENTLY IS
6:09:23PM SUPER EXPENSIVE, A PROACTIVE STEP THAT DEMONSTRATES THEIR
6:09:28PM RESPECT FOR OUR COMMUNITY'S NEEDS.
6:09:30PM A KEY POINT FOR US IS THE COLUMBUS AVENUE ENTRANCE.
6:09:34PM I BELIEVE THAT THIS DESIGN HELPS KEEP OUR SIDE STREETS
6:09:37PM QUIETER AND MORE NEIGHBORHOODLY AND FEEL THAT DIRECTING
6:09:41PM TRAFFIC TOWARD A MAJOR ROAD IS THOUGHTFUL AND BALANCES
6:09:44PM ACCESSIBILITY WITH OUR COMMUNITY'S RESIDENTIAL INTEGRITY.
6:09:50PM HOWEVER, COLUMBUS AVENUE DEFINITELY NEEDS ATTENTION BEFORE
6:09:54PM ANY OF THIS IS DONE.
6:09:56PM IT'S ALREADY A PROBLEM AREA.
6:09:58PM THIS PROJECT AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS AT THAT INTERSECTION
6:10:01PM NEED TO CAREFULLY CONSIDER ACCESS.
6:10:03PM SPECIFICALLY THE INTERSECTION OF COLUMBUS AND TAMPA, WHICH
6:10:06PM WOULD BENEFIT GREATLY FROM A TURN LANE AND A TURN LIGHT.
6:10:11PM ADDING THESE FEATURES WOULD ALLEVIATE CONGESTION AND REDUCE
6:10:15PM STRAIN ON OTHER PARTS OF COLUMBUS.
6:10:17PM THOUGH THIS PROJECT DOES NOT DESIGNATE AFFORDABLE HOUSING,
6:10:20PM ADDING 208 NEW UNITS WILL HELP ADDRESS THE HOUSING SHORTAGE,
6:10:24PM INCREASING HOUSING AVAILABILITY CAN STABILIZE RENTAL PRICES
6:10:28PM OVER TIME CREATING A MORE ACCESSIBLE MARKET AND THIS ALIGNS
6:10:32PM WITH OUR SHARED VISION OF TAMPA HEIGHTS AS A DIVERSE AND
6:10:35PM VIBRANT COMMUNITY.
6:10:37PM THE PLANNED RETAIL AND PUBLIC SPACES ARE EQUALLY IMPORTANT,
6:10:40PM FOSTERING INVITING STREETSCAPE ALONG COLUMBUS DRIVE WITH
6:10:44PM PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY SIDEWALKS, GREENSPACES, AND COMMERCIAL
6:10:47PM STOREFRONTS.
6:10:48PM THIS PROJECT ALIGNS WELL WITH THE TAMPA HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD
6:10:50PM PLAN.
6:10:51PM THIS PROJECT BRINGS NEW LIFE AND OPPORTUNITY TO TAMPA
6:10:54PM HEIGHTS ADDRESSING BOTH HOUSING NEEDS AND COMMUNITY
6:10:58PM VIBRANCY.
6:10:58PM I APPRECIATE THE DEVELOPER'S RESPECT FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD
6:11:02PM AND BELIEVE THIS PROJECT IS A POSITIVE STEP FORWARD IN OUR
6:11:05PM GROWTH.
6:11:05PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION AND COMMITMENT TO
6:11:07PM A THOUGHTFUL DEVELOPMENT IN TAMPA HEIGHTS.
6:11:10PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
6:11:10PM NEXT SPEAKER.
6:11:11PM YES, MA'AM, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
6:11:12PM >> HELLO.
6:11:13PM MY NAME IS ERICA GREENBERG SCHNEIDER.
6:11:16PM I'M THE OWNER AND DIRECTOR OF BLEU ACIER, INC., WHICH IS AT
6:11:19PM 109 WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE.
6:11:21PM I WAS ONE OF THE FIRST PEOPLE TO MOVE THERE, ARTISTS, DICK
6:11:26PM GRECO HAD SENT OUT A DESIRE TO SEE THAT WHOLE AREA BECOME A
6:11:30PM COTTAGE INDUSTRY WITH ARTISANS AND LIVE-WORK SPACES.
6:11:34PM I WAS THE FIRST AND ONLY, UNFORTUNATELY.
6:11:37PM THAT NEVER REALLY HAPPENED.
6:11:38PM WHAT I WANTED TO SAY WAS THAT FRAMEWORK IS A VERY GOOD
6:11:45PM COMPANY.
6:11:46PM I'VE DEALT WITH THEM FOR ART REASONS.
6:11:49PM I HAVE A GALLERY.
6:11:50PM I'VE WORKED WITH THEM BEFORE AND THEY ARE HONEST, THEY ARE
6:11:53PM TRUTHFUL.
6:11:54PM I AGREE WITH THE FIRST WOMAN THAT SPOKE EARLIER WHOSE NAME I
6:11:57PM DID NOT RETAIN, UNFORTUNATELY, ABOUT WE NEED HELP WITH
6:12:02PM RETAIL.
6:12:03PM THAT WHOLE AREA, USED TO BE MICHIGAN AVENUE IN THE '30s.
6:12:10PM I HAVE PICTURES.
6:12:11PM MY BUILDING IS NEXT DOOR TO THE ORIGINAL HOME OF THE FIRST
6:12:13PM MAYOR OF TAMPA.
6:12:14PM AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.
6:12:17PM IT WAS VERY EXCITING.
6:12:18PM IT WAS VERY BUSTLING.
6:12:21PM WE NEED THAT TO COME BACK.
6:12:23PM HAVING THE RESIDENTIAL PART WITH THE STOREFRONTS ON THE
6:12:27PM BOTTOM IS A REALLY GOOD IDEA.
6:12:29PM I NEED COMPANY.
6:12:30PM I AM THE ONLY PLACE THAT SELLS THINGS ON THAT STREET.
6:12:33PM PLUS I SELL ART WHICH IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY AS WELL.
6:12:38PM BUT THIS PROJECT IS GOING TO OFFER LIVING SPACE AND
6:12:42PM COMMERCIAL SPACES AND THE YOUNGER GENERATIONS MOVING HERE,
6:12:47PM PART OF THE PROBLEM WITH THE TRAFFIC, I TEACH AT USF IN
6:12:50PM ST. PETERSBURG, IT TOOK ME TWO AND A HALF HOURS TO GET HERE
6:12:52PM THIS AFTERNOON.
6:12:53PM I LEFT AT 2:00 IN THE AFTERNOON.
6:12:56PM 275 WAS RIDICULOUS.
6:12:58PM SO THIS IS NOT ONLY COLUMBUS, IT'S EVERYWHERE.
6:13:02PM PEOPLE ARE POURING IN HERE AND WE NEED TO ADDRESS THAT
6:13:04PM ISSUE.
6:13:05PM BUT THE CITY IS GROWING AND WE CAN'T FIGHT THAT.
6:13:09PM YOUNGER AND YOUNGER GENERATIONS OF PEOPLE ARE INSTALLING
6:13:13PM THEMSELVES IN TAMPA AND THEY WANT AN ENVIRONMENT.
6:13:15PM THEY WANT A NEIGHBORHOOD ENVIRONMENT.
6:13:17PM AND THIS PROJECT IS REALLY PERFECT FOR THAT.
6:13:19PM THANK YOU.
6:13:19PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: DID YOU SAY THAT YOUR BUILDING ON
6:13:21PM COLUMBUS, THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR IS THE ORIGINAL HOME THAT'S
6:13:25PM THERE?
6:13:26PM >> YEAH, BUT --
6:13:28PM [ENCODER DISCONNECT]
6:13:31PM -- I MET ONE OF THE ORIGINAL CARPENTERS WHO WORKED ON THE
6:13:37PM HOUSE WHO SHOWED ME IMAGES OF IT.
6:13:40PM WHEN IT WAS FIRST BUILT, IT WAS STUNNING.
6:13:42PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: TALKING ABOUT MAYOR LANCASTER.
6:13:44PM >> THE GREEN VICTORIAN HOUSE TO THE EAST OF ME.
6:13:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
6:13:50PM >> UNFORTUNATELY, NOBODY WAS PAYING ATTENTION TO TAMPA
6:13:53PM HEIGHTS AND IT WAS SOLD, RESOLD AND RESOLD AND THEY BROKE IT
6:13:58PM UP AND DID NIGHTMARES TO IT UNFORTUNATELY.
6:14:00PM IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PART.
6:14:03PM THAT WHOLE STRETCH IS A BEAUTIFUL PART OF TAMPA HEIGHTS.
6:14:06PM THANK YOU, CITY COUNCIL.
6:14:07PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, SIR.
6:14:07PM PLEASE COME ON UP AND STATE YOUR NAME.
6:14:11PM >> GOOD EVENING.
6:14:11PM MY NAME IS WILLIAM DOVINS.
6:14:14PM 513 EAST HUGHES STREET IN TAMPA HEIGHTS.
6:14:18PM THIS WEEK IT WILL BE SIX YEARS THAT I'VE LIVED IN TAMPA
6:14:21PM HEIGHTS.
6:14:24PM ONE THING THAT I'VE EXPERIENCED SINCE I'VE LIVED HERE IS
6:14:27PM THIS CORNER ON FLORIDA AND COLUMBUS HAS BEEN NOT ACTIVATED
6:14:31PM THE ENTIRE TIME THAT I LIVED HERE.
6:14:33PM AND FROM SPEAKING TO MY NEIGHBORS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR
6:14:36PM QUITE SOME TIME.
6:14:37PM SO THAT'S WHY I'M HERE TO SUPPORT THIS PROJECT TONIGHT.
6:14:41PM I'LL GIVE SOME OTHER REASONS WHY.
6:14:44PM I WORK DOWNTOWN AND I COMMUTE VIA BIKE, WALKING, AND
6:14:50PM SOMETIMES DRIVING.
6:14:51PM I TRY TO DO THAT AS LESS AS POSSIBLE BUT SUMMER DOES NOT
6:14:55PM PERMIT SOMETIMES.
6:14:58PM WALKING MY DOG IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, I GENERALLY AVOID THIS
6:15:02PM AREA BECAUSE, ONE, THIS PROJECT IS GOING TO ADDRESS ARE THE
6:15:07PM NARROW SIDEWALKS.
6:15:08PM IT'S NOT VERY COMFORTABLE WITH SPEEDING TRAFFIC COMING BY
6:15:12PM WITH A DOG, LET ALONE IF YOU PASS SOMEONE ELSE ON THE
6:15:15PM SIDEWALK.
6:15:15PM IT'S A VACANT LOT, SO IT'S COVERED IN BROKEN GLASS.
6:15:20PM I DON'T PARTICULARLY LIKE TO WALK THERE MYSELF.
6:15:23PM ONE THING I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IS THE ACTIVATION OF THIS
6:15:27PM CORNER AND MAKING IT A UTILITY FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
6:15:30PM ONE THING TOUCHED ON IN THE PRESENTATION WAS THE FACT THAT
6:15:35PM AT FIRST THERE WAS NO GROUND FLOOR RETAIL.
6:15:37PM AND THAT WAS A CONCESSION THEY MADE IN THEIR COMMUNICATION
6:15:41PM WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH I GENERALLY APPRECIATED.
6:15:43PM I KNOW ONE THING WE WANT WITH TAMPA HEIGHTS IS TAMPA HEIGHTS
6:15:50PM AS TOUCHED ON EARLIER IN THE PRESENTATION, IT WAS ORIGINALLY
6:15:52PM THE FIRST SUBURB.
6:15:54PM THAT'S WHERE MOST OF THE PEOPLE WHEN TAMPA WAS MUCH SMALLER.
6:15:57PM NOW TAMPA HEIGHTS HAS BECOME PART OF OUR URBAN CORE, AND I
6:16:01PM KNOW MANY PEOPLE ON THIS COUNCIL HAVE TALKED ABOUT WANTING
6:16:03PM TO INCREASE DEMAND FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION.
6:16:07PM I THINK LARGE DENSITY PROJECTS SUCH AS THIS WILL CREATE THAT
6:16:11PM DEMAND OF MORE PEOPLE THAT ARE WILLING TO USE THAT
6:16:14PM TRANSPORTATION TO GET TO AND FROM THEIR JOBS WHEREVER THEY
6:16:18PM MAY BE DOWNTOWN OR EVERYONE IS WORKING REMOTELY NOW TO HAVE
6:16:23PM TRANSPORTATION FOR THOSE FOLKS TO USE OUR DOWNTOWN CORRIDOR
6:16:26PM AND CREATE THAT VIBRANT URBAN ENVIRONMENT WHICH WE'RE
6:16:29PM LOOKING FOR.
6:16:29PM AGAIN, I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME, COUNCIL.
6:16:34PM THAT'S JUST SOME OF THE GENERAL POINTS OF WHY I SUPPORT THIS
6:16:36PM PROJECT.
6:16:37PM THANKS.
6:16:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
6:16:38PM YES, MA'AM.
6:16:41PM PLEASE COME ON UP AND STATE YOUR NAME.
6:16:44PM >> LEE WILSON VERSAGI.
6:16:49PM 720 SOUTH ORLEANS AVENUE, TAMPA.
6:16:52PM MY HUSBAND, RUSS AND I HAVE THE THREE ABUTTING HOUSES THAT
6:17:00PM ARE ON MORGAN TO THIS PROJECT.
6:17:05PM I WOULD AGREE THAT IF THEY STEP BACK TO THREE STORIES WHERE
6:17:14PM THE HOUSES ARE, THAT WOULD BE VERY GOOD FOR US BECAUSE WE
6:17:22PM OWN THESE HOUSES.
6:17:23PM WE RENT THESE HOUSES.
6:17:25PM THE DENSITY IS SO MUCH.
6:17:30PM I THINK IF YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURES THAT THEY SHOWED YOU OF
6:17:32PM THE SURROUNDING AREA, YOU CAN SEE THAT.
6:17:36PM AND WHEN YOU SEE THAT DEVELOPMENT, YOU CAN SEE THAT IT'S
6:17:43PM MASSIVE COMPARED TO EVERYTHING ELSE AROUND IT.
6:17:45PM I AGREE THAT THAT AREA NEEDS ACTIVATION AND NEEDS RETAIL,
6:17:53PM AND IT NEEDS A VIBRANT CORNER THERE.
6:17:57PM BUT THERE ARE ISSUES WITH WHERE ARE CARS GOING TO PULL IN
6:18:05PM AND OUT OF.
6:18:05PM BUT THE NOISE FOR US, IT WILL IMPACT US FINANCIALLY, WE
6:18:13PM BELIEVE.
6:18:13PM OR I SHOULD SPEAK FOR MYSELF.
6:18:16PM I THINK THAT IT WOULD BE BETTER TO HAVE A SMALLER
6:18:31PM THREE-STORY TO FOUR-STORY BUILDING ON THAT CORNER AND
6:18:38PM ACTIVATE THE STREET IN THAT WAY.
6:18:41PM I DON'T THINK I HAVE ANYTHING FURTHER TO ADD EXCEPT FOR I
6:18:49PM WILL SHOW YOU JUST REALLY QUICK.
6:18:57PM THIS IS AT 80 FEET BEHIND ONE OF OUR HOUSES, AND YOU CAN SEE
6:19:10PM THE THREE HOUSES THAT ARE RIGHT THERE.
6:19:14PM WELL, THAT'S WHERE THE BUILDING IS GOING TO BE.
6:19:21PM THAT'S THE SAME AS IF YOU HAD THIS BUILDING BEHIND YOU AND
6:19:27PM YOU WERE IN THAT FOURTH LANE ACROSS ON FLORIDA AVENUE, YOU
6:19:33PM WOULD BE AT THE BACK DOOR OF THESE HOUSES.
6:19:37PM IT'S REALLY JUST TOO MUCH DENSITY.
6:19:41PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
6:19:42PM YES, SIR.
6:19:42PM COME ON UP.
6:19:43PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
6:19:46PM >> GOOD EVENING.
6:19:47PM MY NAME IS RUSS VERSAGI.
6:19:51PM I'M A STAKEHOLDER IN TAMPA HEIGHTS.
6:19:55PM THE MIXED USE PROJECT THAT'S PLANNED FOR THE SOUTHEAST
6:19:59PM CORNER ON COLUMBUS AND FLORIDA AVENUE IS ONE THAT HAS
6:20:03PM UTILIZED EVERY IMAGINABLE ZONING FUNCTION, INCLUDING LAND
6:20:08PM USE AMENDMENTS, DEMOLITION OF HISTORIC BUILDINGS, REMOVAL OF
6:20:13PM TREES, VACATING ALLEYS, ZERO SETBACK WAIVERS, AND A PD TO
6:20:18PM MAXIMIZE THE DENSITY.
6:20:20PM IT WILL COST THEM OVER $90 MILLION AND REACH A HEIGHT OF 89
6:20:27PM FEET.
6:20:27PM THAT'S A SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT IN ANYBODY'S STANDARD.
6:20:31PM YET IT'S LOCATED IN A HISTORIC DISTRICT AND FACES THREE
6:20:38PM HISTORIC BUNGALOWS ON THE SAME BLOCK WITH ONLY A 15-FOOT
6:20:44PM SETBACK.
6:20:44PM IF THE BUILDING IS CONSTRUCTED AS REQUESTED, THOSE BUNGALOWS
6:20:51PM WILL NEVER HAVE A SUNSET MUCH LESS ANY PRIVACY.
6:20:58PM MY WIFE'S PHOTOS SHOWED WHAT AN AERIAL LOOKS LIKE AND YOU'RE
6:21:05PM STARING RIGHT IN THE BACKYARD OF THESE BUNGALOWS.
6:21:11PM THOSE HOMES ARE EACH OVER A HUNDRED YEARS OLD.
6:21:15PM AND TEN YEARS AGO, THOSE THREE HOMES WERE RESCUED FROM
6:21:20PM DEMOLITION.
6:21:21PM DENNIS FERNANDEZ MENTIONED THAT.
6:21:22PM AND NOW THEY ARE FULLY RESTORED TO THE SECRETARY OF INTERIOR
6:21:26PM STANDARDS, AND THEY HAVE BECOME A PART OF THE PIONEERING
6:21:31PM EFFORT TO RESTORE THE NEIGHBORHOOD KNOWN AS TAMPA HEIGHTS.
6:21:35PM I'D LIKE TO ASK COUNCIL TO APPROVE THE DEVELOPMENT WITH
6:21:39PM CONDITIONS THAT WERE GIVEN BY THE CITY STAFF AND THE ARC.
6:21:45PM BOTH OF THOSE PROPOSALS CALLED FOR A STEP-DOWN REDUCTION IN
6:21:49PM HEIGHT OF 35 FEET WHERE THE DEVELOPMENT FACES THE THREE
6:21:53PM BUNGALOWS.
6:21:56PM THESE ARE THE THREE BUNGALOWS, AND THESE ARE THE BUILDINGS
6:22:18PM THAT WILL BE LOOKING DOWN ON IT.
6:22:21PM AND THOSE BUILDINGS IF THEY MEET A 35-FOOT STEP-DOWN, IT
6:22:28PM WILL PROBABLY TAKE TEN OF THOSE RESIDENTIAL UNITS AWAY.
6:22:34PM I'M SUGGESTING THAT THAT IS A GOOD COMPROMISE.
6:22:37PM THEY CAN PUT THE OTHER TEN UNITS ELSEWHERE OR JUST GO TO THE
6:22:42PM SELLER OF THE LAND AND SAY, WE CAN ONLY PAY THIS MUCH FOR
6:22:45PM YOUR LAND.
6:22:47PM AND THAT HAPPENS EVERY DAY IN THE DEVELOPMENT WORLD.
6:22:50PM EITHER FISH OR CUT BAIT WHEN IT COMES TO THAT.
6:22:53PM I APPRECIATE YOU HEARING ME OUT.
6:22:57PM THANK YOU.
6:22:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE?
6:22:57PM ALL RIGHT.
6:22:59PM WE GO TO REBUTTAL NOW.
6:23:01PM I JUST HAD A COUPLE OF COMMENTS AND THINGS THAT WERE BROUGHT
6:23:03PM UP.
6:23:04PM FIRST, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PROJECT.
6:23:06PM THANK YOU FOR BELIEVING IN THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE THAT
6:23:11PM PARCEL, AS YOU SEE, IT'S EMPTY PARKING LOT, SOME HISTORIC
6:23:16PM STRUCTURES.
6:23:16PM THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF CHANGES TO IT BUT A VERY BUSY
6:23:19PM INTERSECTION.
6:23:20PM THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING TAMPA HEIGHTS IN YOUR INVESTMENT.
6:23:24PM HOWEVER, A COUPLE OF THINGS WERE BROUGHT UP.
6:23:26PM COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK BROUGHT UP THE GRIDLOCK.
6:23:28PM I TAKE FLORIDA AVENUE TO COLUMBUS TO GET OUT OF HERE EVERY
6:23:33PM TIME I LEAVE.
6:23:34PM SOMETIMES I TAKE KENNEDY, NOT THAT IT'S ANY EASIER, BUT I
6:23:38PM LIVE NORTH.
6:23:40PM AND THAT INTERSECTION IS INCREDIBLY BUSY.
6:23:43PM IT MAY NOT BE WHEN WE GET OUT OF HERE AT 2 IN THE MORNING
6:23:47PM TONIGHT AT THIS RATE, BUT DURING THE DAY, IN THE MORNINGS,
6:23:53PM IT'S VERY, VERY BUSY.
6:23:55PM FLORIDA AVENUE IS A ONE-WAY, MULTIPLE LANES GOING NORTH.
6:23:58PM BUT COLUMBUS DRIVE IS A NARROW EAST AND WEST.
6:24:02PM AND IT IS VERY, VERY BUSY.
6:24:04PM ONCE YOU GO EAST OF NORTH BOULEVARD, AS THE GENTLEMAN
6:24:07PM MENTIONED, IT GETS BACKED UP.
6:24:09PM THAT'S ONE THING.
6:24:11PM THE ENTRANCE WAY TO -- THE INGRESS AND EGRESS ON COLUMBUS
6:24:17PM DRIVE, I SEE IT AS VERY DIFFICULT FOR MOST OF THE DAYTIME TO
6:24:22PM GET IN AND OUT OF THERE BECAUSE THE INTERSECTION, HOW NARROW
6:24:25PM IT IS.
6:24:26PM ANOTHER CONCERN THAT CAME UP IS, AS MR. VERSAGI MENTIONED AT
6:24:31PM THE END AND IN REGARDS TO THE AMOUNT OF PARKING SPACES, IS
6:24:34PM THERE A WAY TO USE THAT STEP-DOWN APPROACH IN THAT BACK AREA
6:24:39PM THAT FACES THOSE THREE HOMES?
6:24:42PM REDUCE A COUPLE OF UNITS, REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF PARKING YOU
6:24:45PM HAVE BECAUSE YOU HAVE MORE THAN WHAT'S NECESSARY, COULD YOU
6:24:48PM MAKE THOSE NUMBERS WORK?
6:24:50PM YOU SAID THERE IS THE BANK.
6:24:53PM THERE'S FINANCING.
6:24:55PM THERE'S MAKING THIS MAKE SENSE AND PROFITABLE, CONSIDERING
6:24:58PM YOU HAVE TO MAKE THIS BUILDING WORK.
6:25:03PM YOU HAVE TO OPERATE IT AND YET TURN A PROFIT.
6:25:06PM THERE WAS A QUESTION ABOUT AFFORDABLE HOUSING, 10%
6:25:10PM AFFORDABLE UNITS, JUST A LOT OF STUFF BROUGHT UP.
6:25:14PM >>LYNN HURTAK: POINT OF ORDER.
6:25:16PM WE CANNOT CONSIDER THEIR FINANCIAL VIABILITY.
6:25:19PM SO WE CAN'T REALLY TALK -- I MEAN, THAT IS NOT SOMETHING WE
6:25:22PM CAN CONSIDER IN THIS.
6:25:24PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NO, NO.
6:25:25PM BECAUSE HE'S PROBABLY GOING TO ANSWER WITH IT'S NOT GOING TO
6:25:29PM MAKE FINANCIAL SENSE.
6:25:30PM BUT WHAT CAN WE DO IN ORDER TO, I DON'T WANT TO SAY
6:25:36PM ACCOMMODATE THE NEIGHBORHOOD BUT ADDRESS THE CONCERNS OF THE
6:25:37PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
6:25:38PM MR. FERNANDEZ CAME UP -- RICK FERNANDEZ, NOT THE HISTORICAL
6:25:42PM PRESERVATION MANAGER, MR. FERNANDEZ, SAYING THAT WE WANT TO
6:25:46PM GET THERE.
6:25:47PM THERE IS A CONDITIONAL LETTER OF SUPPORT, YOU COULD SAY.
6:25:51PM BUT CAN ANY CHANGES BE MADE BETWEEN NOW AND SECOND READING?
6:25:55PM ANY MODIFICATIONS THAT WOULD HELP US GET TO TRYING TO
6:25:58PM ACCOMMODATE -- ACCOMMODATE -- TRY TO COME TO A HAPPIER
6:26:05PM MEDIUM?
6:26:05PM A LOT OF QUESTIONS, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD --
6:26:09PM >>BILL CARLSON: CAN I ADD?
6:26:10PM TALK ABOUT IT ALL IN REBUTTAL.
6:26:14PM I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH YOUR PRESENTATION AND THE FACT
6:26:18PM THAT YOU HAD SO MANY MEETINGS WITH THE PUBLIC, THAT YOU
6:26:21PM LISTENED TO IT YOU LOOKED AT THE ARCHITECTURAL STYLE OF THE
6:26:24PM COMMUNITY, AND THAT YOU WERE TRANSPARENT ABOUT THE THINGS
6:26:26PM YOU COULDN'T DO.
6:26:27PM I THINK THAT WAS VERY PROGRESSIVE FOR A DEVELOPER.
6:26:29PM SO THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THAT.
6:26:31PM JUST ADDING ON TO WHAT HE JUST SAID, FOR EXAMPLE, THE
6:26:37PM VERSAGI FAMILY HAS RESTORED PROBABLY HUNDREDS OF IMPORTANT
6:26:45PM HISTORIC STRUCTURES AND MULTIFAMILY STRUCTURES AROUND.
6:26:47PM I KNOW THEY UNDERSTAND THE RELEVANCE OF BUILDINGS TO ONE
6:26:53PM ANOTHER.
6:26:53PM IT SOUNDS LIKE THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THEY ARE ASKING FOR THE
6:26:56PM SAME THING.
6:26:56PM JUST ON THAT ONE PART -- YOU CAN'T SEE THE MAP I CAN SEE --
6:27:00PM JUST ON THAT ONE PART, LIKE HALF THE WALL FACING IT, I SAW
6:27:04PM YOU ALL HAD STEPPED IT BACK ON THE TOP FLOOR TO CREATE
6:27:07PM PATIOS OR WHATEVER.
6:27:09PM IT LOOKS -- THE STYLE OF IT SHOWS THAT YOU PUT A LOT OF
6:27:14PM THOUGHT IN THE ARCHITECTURE.
6:27:16PM IS IT POSSIBLE AT ALL TO STEP BACK SLIGHTLY TO HIT THE
6:27:21PM REQUIREMENTS THEY HAVE SO IT LOOKS LIKE IT STEPS DOWN TO THE
6:27:25PM HISTORIC HOMES?
6:27:29PM >> TO HIT ON THOSE TOPICS --
6:27:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: BEFORE YOU START, I AGREE WITH MR.
6:27:37PM CARLSON.
6:27:37PM CAN I ADD TO YOUR LIST OF THINGS TO RESPOND TO IN REBUTTAL?
6:27:41PM MY QUESTIONS.
6:27:42PM >> SURE.
6:27:42PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WHAT WAS -- WHY DID YOU RULE OUT AMELIA
6:27:46PM FOR A GARAGE ENTRANCE?
6:27:47PM THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED QUITE OFTEN ABOUT THIS CORNER AND
6:27:56PM THE LACK OF RETAIL.
6:28:00PM YOU ONLY HAVE THE TWO CORNERS, RIGHT, RELATIVELY SMALL
6:28:03PM SPACES.
6:28:04PM LACK OF RETAIL.
6:28:05PM I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY, YOU UNDERGROUNDED UTILITIES ON THIS
6:28:10PM PROJECT.
6:28:10PM >> THAT IS THE PROPOSAL, CORRECT.
6:28:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THOSE ARE THE ONLY THREE POINTS.
6:28:16PM NONE OF THOSE ARE STICKLERS FOR ME.
6:28:20PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
6:28:21PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. CHAIRMAN.
6:28:23PM I APPRECIATE.
6:28:24PM I AGREE WITH WHAT'S BEEN SAID ON BOTH SIDES.
6:28:26PM HOWEVER, IN MY MIND, I'M CALCULATING FLORIDA AVENUE DOES
6:28:29PM HAVE A LOT OF TRAFFIC AND IT GOES ALL THE WAY NORTH AS FAR
6:28:33PM AS YOU CAN GO.
6:28:34PM GO OUT OF CITY LIMITS FLORIDA AVENUE.
6:28:37PM HOWEVER, I GOT SOME E-MAILS ON FLORIDA AND HILLSBOROUGH
6:28:39PM ABOUT THE TRAFFIC CONGESTION, WHY YOU'RE CHANGING THE
6:28:43PM TRAFFIC SIGNALIZATION.
6:28:44PM IT WAS VERY WELL EXPLAINED.
6:28:46PM HILLSBOROUGH AVENUE IS 550,000 CARS.
6:28:49PM FLORIDA AVENUE HAS MUCH LESS THAN THAT, BUT A LOT OF CARS.
6:28:52PM LEFT-TURN LANE ON FLORIDA AND HILLSBOROUGH IS DONE AND HAS
6:28:54PM NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS SO YOU CAN GET RID OF FOUR CARS AND
6:28:58PM CONTINUE THE TRAFFIC ON HILLSBOROUGH AVENUE.
6:28:59PM ON YOUR AREA, ON FLORIDA AND COLUMBUS, YOU GO ONE BLOCK WEST
6:29:05PM TAMPA STREET AND THERE IS A BIG DEVELOPMENT COMING THERE.
6:29:10PM GOT TO BE THE SAME AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC ON TAMPA STREET AS IT
6:29:13PM IS ON FLORIDA AVENUE BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE WHAT?
6:29:16PM HABITUAL.
6:29:17PM THEY GO AND COME EVERY WAY THE SAME DAY EVERY DAY.
6:29:21PM THAT'S A NATURAL THING.
6:29:23PM TRAFFIC BAD?
6:29:24PM YES.
6:29:24PM THAT BUILDING I'VE KNOWN FOR I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY YEARS.
6:29:29PM THAT BUILDING IS OVER 80 OR 90 YEARS OLD.
6:29:33PM WHEN I WAS A KID 1956 TO '59, WENT TO JEFFERSON HIGH SCHOOL.
6:29:38PM WALKED TO YBOR CITY, PAST THIS BUILDING EVERY SINGLE DAY.
6:29:42PM IT HASN'T CHANGED.
6:29:43PM I WAS GOING TO SAY A BAD WORD.
6:29:47PM IT WAS INCOMPARABLE TO WHAT USED TO IN YBOR CITY.
6:29:50PM BONSAI OR SOMETHING THAT SOLD VINYL AND FLOOR.
6:29:55PM RETAIL AND WHOLESALE COMBINED.
6:29:58PM ACROSS THE STREET, BICYCLE SHOP.
6:30:00PM TWO BUILDINGS TO THE SOUTH I DON'T THINK WERE THERE.
6:30:02PM I THINK THEY WERE ADDED ON SOMETIME AFTER 1960.
6:30:05PM I DON'T REMEMBER THEM BEING THERE.
6:30:07PM I'M GOING WAY BACK.
6:30:09PM WHY HAVE MORE PARKING?
6:30:11PM I'M ALWAYS IN FAVOR OF MORE PARKING.
6:30:16PM PLEASE JOIN SOMETHING, KIDS, 15, 16 YEARS OLD, WHAT DO YOU
6:30:21PM THINK THEY'LL DO COUPLE YEARS OLDER?
6:30:23PM WON'T RIDE A BUS.
6:30:25PM THEY DON'T SEE A BUS.
6:30:26PM TALK ABOUT TRANSIT AND WANT TO HAVE TRANSIT WHERE THERE IS
6:30:29PM POPULATION.
6:30:30PM YOU DON'T HAVE POPULATION, HOW YOU GET THE BUS?
6:30:32PM I DON'T KNOW.
6:30:36PM WHAT I'M SAYING IS IN THIS ATMOSPHERE IN LIFE, PARKING IS A
6:30:41PM DIRE NECESSITY.
6:30:42PM KIDS BECOME OLDER REAL QUICK, GIVE THEM KEYS, SO IF YOU HAVE
6:30:47PM 208 AND YOU HAVE 300 AND HOW MUCH.
6:30:50PM >> 340.
6:30:51PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: MAYBE IT'S A LITTLE OVER.
6:30:53PM GUARANTEE YOU YOU'LL HAVE A LOT OF TEENAGERS THAT BECOME
6:30:56PM YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN WITHIN THREE OR FOUR YEARS.
6:30:59PM THEY ARE GOING TO NEED PARKING, WHETHER IT MEETS THAT
6:31:01PM REQUIREMENT OR NOT, I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU FIGURED IT OUT.
6:31:04PM ALL THOSE THINGS ARE LOOKED AT.
6:31:06PM THAT BUILDING HAS BEEN AS UGLY AS I'VE SEEN ANYTHING
6:31:10PM ANYWHERE AT ANY TIME.
6:31:11PM WHEN YOU LOOK JUST NORTH OF YOU ON THE SAME CORNER OPPOSITE
6:31:15PM SIDE, CHAIN-LINK FENCE, DON'T YOU?
6:31:19PM >> THAT'S RIGHT.
6:31:19PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: WHAT ABOUT ON THE OTHER SIDE?
6:31:21PM BIG BUILDING THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TORN DOWN.
6:31:27PM USED TO BE A FURNITURE STORE.
6:31:28PM TOOK FURNITURE TO GET FIXED.
6:31:30PM BOTTOM WAS HAIR CUT.
6:31:31PM I NEVER WENT THERE.
6:31:32PM WHAT I'M SAYING IS ALL THESE THINGS I REMEMBER, NOW YOU
6:31:35PM FOLLOW THAT AVENUE, COLUMBUS DRIVE ON THE SAME NORTH SIDE,
6:31:40PM GUESS WHAT YOU HAVE THERE.
6:31:44PM CAR REPAIR.
6:31:45PM GOTTEN MUCH BETTER.
6:31:46PM PASSED BY THE OTHER DAY.
6:31:47PM I NOTICED SOME BUILDINGS ARE REALLY NICE AND PAINTED AND
6:31:53PM SOMEONE LIVING THERE NOW.
6:31:54PM THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE, AUTO REPAIR SHOP.
6:31:56PM BEHIND YOUR PLACE?
6:31:57PM AUTO REPAIR BODY SHOP, AM I CORRECT?
6:32:00PM >> THAT'S RIGHT.
6:32:02PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING, BUT I SEE WITH MY
6:32:04PM EYES AND TRY TO MEMORIZE EVERYWHERE I GO WHAT I SEE.
6:32:07PM I REMEMBER THAT 60 YEARS AGO AND 70 YEARS AGO AND IT HAS NOT
6:32:12PM CHANGED.
6:32:12PM IT WAS BOARDED UP FOR A LONG TIME.
6:32:14PM WINDOWS WERE BOARDED UP, PAINTED DIFFERENT COLOR.
6:32:18PM ALL THAT STUFF WAS THERE.
6:32:19PM WHAT WAS THE NEIGHBORHOOD THEN?
6:32:20PM THE NEIGHBORHOOD WANTS SOMETHING DONE, BUT I THINK
6:32:23PM COMPROMISE BETWEEN YOURSELF AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD FROM WHAT I
6:32:27PM READ AND THE BODY LANGUAGE AND STUFF I HEARD.
6:32:30PM I DON'T THINK FAR APART, BUT IT'S UP TO YOU TO NEGOTIATE
6:32:34PM WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
6:32:35PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. CHAIRMAN.
6:32:37PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HENDERSON.
6:32:38PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: THANK YOU SO MUCH.
6:32:40PM AS THE DETECTIVE REPRESENTATIVE, I WANT TO SAY FRAMEWORK,
6:32:44PM FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENTATION.
6:32:46PM WE HAVE BEEN WAITING AND -- I'VE ALSO TAKEN A LOOK AT THE
6:32:53PM STAFF REPORT AS WELL AS WHAT THE COMMUNITY HAS TO SAY.
6:32:57PM WHILE I APPRECIATE THE PROJECT, I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE'RE
6:32:59PM QUITE THERE YET IN TERMS OF THE THINGS.
6:33:07PM MAYBE NOT ALL.
6:33:08PM WE HAVE MORE PARKING THAN YOU NEED AND NO AFFORDABLE
6:33:14PM HOUSING, AND THAT CONTINUES TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE
6:33:20PM GENTRIFICATION OF TAMPA HEIGHTS FOR ME.
6:33:22PM I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS A PERSONAL STATEMENT, PER SE, BUT IF
6:33:25PM YOU TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION OF CHOOSING PARKING OVER
6:33:27PM AFFORDABLE HOUSING, I FEEL LIKE YOU SHOULD DEFER AND PICK
6:33:31PM AFFORDABLE HOUSING AS A SET-ASIDE.
6:33:34PM AND THEN THE RETAIL SPACE, I LOOKED -- I ADDED IT UP, IS IT
6:33:39PM ONLY THREE UNITS OF RETAIL SPACE TOTALING 5,745 SQUARE FEET?
6:33:45PM >> THREE STOREFRONTS, 4500 SQUARE FEET.
6:33:54PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: AT THE ONSET, IN MY MIND, I ENVISIONED
6:33:56PM THAT THERE WOULD BE AT LEAST TEN BUSINESSES THERE.
6:33:58PM LITTLE TINY SHOPS WE COULD CHOOSE FROM.
6:34:00PM I DON'T KNOW IF THREE TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION WHAT THEY
6:34:04PM POSSIBLY WILL BE AT 3,000 SQUARE FEET BEING THE LARGEST,
6:34:07PM 3100 SQUARE FEET AND TWO SMALLER ONES.
6:34:11PM I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WOULD NECESSARILY CONTRIBUTE TO IT
6:34:16PM BEING WALKABLE FOR THE TAMPA HEIGHTS COMMUNITY, DEPENDING ON
6:34:19PM WHAT THOSE BUSINESSES ARE GOING TO BE.
6:34:23PM BUT I HOPE THAT BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING THERE COULD
6:34:27PM BE MORE COMPROMISE.
6:34:28PM AT THIS POINT, I ACTUALLY DO WANT TO SUPPORT IT.
6:34:31PM I'M MORE IN FAVOR OF IT THAN NOT SUPPORTING IT, BUT I WOULD
6:34:35PM LIKE TO SEE MORE COMPROMISE WITH THE COMMUNITY IN TERMS OF
6:34:38PM THE THINGS THAT THEY OUTLINED.
6:34:41PM ANYTIME DENNIS FERNANDEZ COMES BEFORE US, HE'S ALWAYS
6:34:44PM PREPARED.
6:34:45PM HOPEFULLY YOU CAN GET THERE EVEN FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE AS
6:34:49PM WELL.
6:34:50PM THANK YOU.
6:34:50PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK.
6:34:51PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.
6:34:53PM I APPRECIATE -- GOT ME OFF TRACK.
6:35:06PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: FORGIVE ME.
6:35:07PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I AGREE WITH COUNCILWOMAN HENDERSON ALSO
6:35:10PM ABOUT THE RETAIL.
6:35:12PM I CAN'T HELP BUT THINK ABOUT THAT FRONTAGE THAT'S GOING TO
6:35:16PM FACE COLUMBUS AND THEN AND CASS STREET.
6:35:20PM CASS STREET AT TAMPA, RIGHT ACROSS FROM CAFFEINE, IT IS UGLY
6:35:29PM AS SIN.
6:35:30PM IT'S JUST CARS.
6:35:31PM THAT'S ALL YOU SEE.
6:35:32PM I'M SURE IT WILL BE A LITTLE NICER BUT IT'S STILL THE SAME
6:35:35PM THING.
6:35:36PM INGRESS AND EGRESS WHERE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO WALK, AND IT
6:35:40PM JUST MAKES SO MUCH MORE SENSE TO HAVE AMELIA BE YOUR SPACE
6:35:43PM THAT PEOPLE COME IN AND OUT OF.
6:35:45PM AND THEN I DIDN'T MENTION THE STEP-DOWN.
6:35:50PM I'M GLAD COMMUNITY MEMBERS DID, BECAUSE, YES, THAT IS ALSO A
6:35:54PM HUGE ISSUE.
6:35:55PM WE HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE PROJECT ON TAMPA, BUT THAT WASN'T
6:36:01PM EVEN AS HIGH.
6:36:04PM SO I'M VERY CONCERNED ALSO ABOUT THE HEIGHT.
6:36:08PM IT DOES SEEM -- I MEAN, I AGREE.
6:36:11PM IT'S HUNDRED PERCENT OVER PARKED.
6:36:13PM THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO SAY.
6:36:15PM UNFORTUNATELY, THESE AREN'T THE KINDS OF THINGS YOU CAN DO
6:36:17PM BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO BE A
6:36:20PM GIANT SITE PLAN MODIFICATION.
6:36:22PM THAT'S MY CONCERN.
6:36:24PM YEAH, IT WOULD BE LOVELY TO SAY YOU CAN TAKE OFF A FEW
6:36:27PM STORIES OR MOVE THINGS AROUND BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
6:36:30PM READING AND ESPECIALLY ADD AFFORDABLE HOUSING BUT I DON'T
6:36:33PM THINK THAT THAT'S POSSIBLE.
6:36:35PM AND THAT'S MY ONLY CONCERN AND THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO BRING
6:36:38PM IT UP.
6:36:39PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: VIERA AND CARLSON.
6:36:40PM >>LUIS VIERA: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.
6:36:43PM WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY SUGGEST AND, SIR, I DON'T KNOW HOW
6:36:46PM YOU FEEL ABOUT IT OR COUNCIL, WHICH IS THERE -- I THINK
6:36:50PM COUNCIL WHAT MR. RICK FERNANDEZ, I WAS LISTENING TO HIS
6:36:55PM COMMENTS AT THE TELEVISION THERE.
6:36:58PM I HAD TO GO USE THE RESTROOM AND I STOPPED BY TO LISTEN.
6:37:02PM BY THE WAY, I'M SICK.
6:37:04PM I'M A LITTLE SLOWER THAN USUAL TODAY, SO TO SPEAK.
6:37:08PM POTENTIALLY, SIR, MAYBE CAN WE, MR. CHAIRMAN OR COUNCIL,
6:37:17PM MAYBE ALLOW THIS GENTLEMAN TO GO OUTSIDE, REASSESS, IF YOU
6:37:23PM WISH TO DO, ANY CHANGES OR ANYTHING THAT YOU MAY WANT TO DO
6:37:26PM SO MAYBE YOU DON'T HAVE TO THINK ON THE STUMP SO TO SPEAK,
6:37:30PM MAYBE IF YOU NEED 15 OR 20 MINUTES.
6:37:32PM I THINK THERE IS SUPPORT UP HERE FOR THINGS, RIGHT?
6:37:36PM JUST A LITTLE BIT OFF, SO TO SPEAK.
6:37:39PM I WOULD USUALLY BE MORE ELOQUENT.
6:37:42PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: CARLSON AND CLENDENIN.
6:37:44PM >>BILL CARLSON: YOU HAVE A LOT TO RESPOND TO.
6:37:47PM I WANT TO LET YOU KNOW, WE ALL HAVE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT VIEWS
6:37:57PM ON THINGS.
6:37:58PM IN THE AREA OF PARKING, I RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE WITH MY
6:38:02PM COLLEAGUES.
6:38:02PM I WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT.
6:38:05PM SADLY I THINK WE ALL THOUGHT TEN YEARS AGO WE WOULD HAVE
6:38:08PM MASS TRANSIT OR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES.
6:38:11PM IF WE HAD THAT, THEN THE WHOLE MOVEMENT TO REDUCE PARKING
6:38:13PM WOULD MAKE SENSE.
6:38:14PM IN THE MEANTIME, UNTIL WE GET THAT, WE HAVE TO HAVE THE
6:38:17PM PARKING THAT IS DEMANDED BY THE MARKET SO THAT YOU CAN RENT
6:38:21PM THESE OR SELL THEM AND THEN THE OTHER THING IS THAT I HEAR A
6:38:25PM LOT OF COMPLAINTS FROM THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T -- FROM PEOPLE
6:38:29PM WHO LIVE AROUND THE PLACES THAT DON'T HAVE ENOUGH PARKING,
6:38:32PM THAT NEIGHBORS DON'T LIKE THEM TAKING UP ALL THE PARKING,
6:38:35PM DON'T LIKE FIGHTING WITH THEM FOR PARKING, ESPECIALLY IF ANY
6:38:38PM OF THE RETAIL ENDS UP BEING PRIMARILY DELIVERY PEOPLE HAVE
6:38:42PM PROBLEMS WITH IT.
6:38:43PM ONE OF THE CONCEPTS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS
6:38:46PM TRANSIT-READY DEVELOPMENT.
6:38:47PM IF THERE IS A PLACE THAT D.O.T. OR HART COULD PUT A CUTOUT
6:38:51PM TO PUT A BUS STOP EVENTUALLY, NEARBY EVEN, THEN THAT
6:38:54PM WOULD --
6:38:55PM >> STREETCAR.
6:38:57PM >>BILL CARLSON: ANYWAY, I JUST SAY I THINK FOR NOW UNTIL WE
6:39:02PM GET TRANSIT OR UNTIL WE GET AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES WE HAVE TO
6:39:05PM HAVE THE AMOUNT OF PARKING THAT A BUILDING NEEDS, OTHERWISE
6:39:07PM THE PARKING WILL SPILL ON THE STREETS.
6:39:09PM THANK YOU.
6:39:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SINCE EVERYBODY ELSE IS ISSUING THEIR
6:39:13PM OPINION ON THIS, I'LL INJECT IT IN.
6:39:15PM I INITIALLY ASKED YOU TO ADD A COUPLE OF THINGS TO THE LIST.
6:39:20PM ONE, THIS IS AN IMPORTANT CORRIDOR FOR DENSITY.
6:39:24PM IF GOD IS WILLING AND I'M ABLE -- WE'RE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH
6:39:27PM THIS BEFORE WE LEAVE THIS TERM, WE'LL HAVE A STREETCAR
6:39:31PM RUNNING IN FRONT OF THIS DEVELOPMENT.
6:39:32PM THIS IS TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT.
6:39:34PM WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE LESS DENSITY, PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT
6:39:38PM DENSITY, WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE LESS DENSITY.
6:39:40PM THIS IS A TRANSPORTATION CORRIDOR.
6:39:42PM THIS IS AN AREA AS FAR AS DEVELOPMENT OF THE CITY OF TAMPA,
6:39:44PM IT'S IMPORTANT, NOT JUST FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD BUT THE ENTIRE
6:39:47PM CITY OF TAMPA.
6:39:47PM THE HEIGHT DOESN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL, ESPECIALLY ALONG
6:39:52PM FLORIDA.
6:39:52PM I MEAN, IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL.
6:39:54PM WOULDN'T BOTHER ME IF IT WAS HIGHER ON FLORIDA.
6:39:57PM I THINK, AGAIN, WITH THE TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT, I
6:40:01PM THINK ACTIVATING THOSE STOREFRONTS I THINK IS IMPORTANT AND
6:40:04PM I THINK YOU RECOGNIZE THAT THIS WAS AN IMPORTANT
6:40:07PM INTERSECTION FOR PEDESTRIAN INTERFACE.
6:40:11PM LET ME TELL YOU WHAT I APPLAUD.
6:40:13PM I APPLAUD THE WIDER SIDEWALKS, MAKING IT PEDESTRIAN
6:40:17PM FRIENDLY.
6:40:18PM UNDERGROUNDING UTILITIES WHICH WILL HELP US WITH THE STREET
6:40:21PM SCAPING FOR THE TREES, I THINK THAT'S TREMENDOUS.
6:40:23PM A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR THE CITY OF TAMPA.
6:40:24PM THE PARKING I AGREE WITH COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
6:40:27PM I'M NOT INVESTING OPINION INTO THIS -- INVESTING A PENNY IN
6:40:32PM THIS PROJECT, NOT A BANKER.
6:40:33PM I ASSUME YOU DON'T WANT TO BUILD SOMETHING AND PAY FOR
6:40:36PM SOMETHING NOT BEING UTILIZED.
6:40:38PM I'LL SAY YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND THE MARKET A LOT BETTER THAN
6:40:41PM ANY ONE OF THE SEVEN OF US SITTING UP HERE ABOUT WHAT IS
6:40:44PM REQUIRED TO RENT THE UNITS.
6:40:46PM I'LL GO WITH WHAT THE MARKET DICTATES ON THIS PARTICULAR
6:40:48PM PROJECT.
6:40:48PM IF WE WERE FURTHER ALONG IN PROVIDING A TRANSIT, CAR-FREE
6:40:54PM ENVIRONMENT FOR THE ENTIRE CITY OF TAMPA, I MAY HAVE A
6:40:57PM DIFFERENT OPINION.
6:40:58PM WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW, I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE OVER-PARKED BUT
6:41:01PM ESPECIALLY IF YOU ADD MORE RETAIL, MAYBE YOU RIGHT-SIZE
6:41:04PM PARK.
6:41:04PM THIS IS NOT GOING TO DICTATE HOW I VOTE, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO
6:41:09PM KNOW WHY YOU CHOSE NOT TO DO THE AMELIA GARAGE ENTRANCE AND
6:41:15PM AGAIN THE LACK OF RETAIL.
6:41:16PM IF YOU FLIP THAT BUILDING AND PUT THOSE COURTYARDS ALONG
6:41:20PM COLUMBUS, I CAN SEE A GREAT RESTAURANT WITH A COURTYARD.
6:41:23PM AGAIN, I'M NOT HERE DESIGNING.
6:41:25PM I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO PRETEND THAT I'LL DESIGN THE PROJECT
6:41:28PM FROM THE DAIS IN 15 MINUTES, SOMETHING THAT YOU SPENT YEARS
6:41:33PM DOING.
6:41:33PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: ATTORNEY WELLS, I WANT YOU TO STOP ME IF
6:41:37PM THIS IS NOT AN APPROPRIATE QUESTION.
6:41:41PM BUT I'M THINKING, AND THIS JUST OCCURRED TO ME, THAT THE
6:41:45PM ADDITIONAL PARKING, IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE 3100 SQUARE FEET
6:41:50PM RETAIL SPACE IS GOING TO BE A BAR OR SOMETHING WHERE THERE'S
6:41:53PM GOING TO BE MORE PARKING NEEDED BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE
6:41:56PM A LOT MORE PATRONS SUPPORTING THAT?
6:41:58PM IS THAT SOMETHING YOU KNOW IN ADVANCE AND THEN WE END UP
6:42:01PM HAVING A PROBLEM BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT NOISE
6:42:04PM THAT WE DON'T KNOW ABOUT YET.
6:42:06PM IS THAT A BAD QUESTION TO ASK?
6:42:08PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: IT WOULD BE A SEPARATE HEARING, I THINK.
6:42:11PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: I KNOW.
6:42:12PM YOU SAID THAT YOU UNDERSTAND BASED ON YOUR BUSINESS MODEL
6:42:17PM WHY YOU HAVE THIS ADDITIONAL PARKING.
6:42:19PM I'M JUST CURIOUS IF IT'S BECAUSE THE RETAIL SPACE ON THE
6:42:25PM BOTTOM LEVEL IS GOING TO BE A SOCIAL SPACE THAT REQUIRES
6:42:29PM PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO PARK AND NOT SPILL INTO THE
6:42:32PM NEIGHBORHOOD OR TO AVOID THAT TO SOME DEGREE.
6:42:35PM I'M JUST ASKING IN ADVANCE JUST IN CASE FIVE YEARS FROM NOW
6:42:38PM WE COME BACK AND HAVE THIS CONVERSATION ABOUT A BAR AND
6:42:42PM CROWDEDNESS.
6:42:43PM CAN I ASK THAT, ATTORNEY WELLS?
6:42:45PM IS IT OKAY?
6:42:47PM YES.
6:42:49PM >> [INAUDIBLE]
6:42:50PM >> IF I MAY, THEY ARE ASKING FOR ALL COMMERCIAL GENERAL
6:42:53PM USES.
6:42:55PM SO A BAR MAY NOT BE KNOWN WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO RIGHT
6:42:57PM NOW BUT THEY COULD COME BACK IN FRONT OF YOU AND ASK FOR
6:43:00PM ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE APPROVAL IN THE FUTURE.
6:43:03PM A BAR IS ALLOWED IN COMMERCIAL GENERAL USES.
6:43:06PM >>LYNN HURTAK: IT SHOULD BE PARKED FOR IT ALREADY BECAUSE IF
6:43:09PM IT IS COMMERCIAL SPACE, MR. THOMAS, IS THAT CORRECT?
6:43:11PM >>SAMUEL THOMAS: YES.
6:43:13PM IF I MAY, I CAN PROVIDE SOME ADDITIONAL CLARIFICATIONS ON
6:43:15PM WHAT CAN BE MADE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING AND WHAT
6:43:18PM WOULD REQUIRE THIS TO GO BACK TO DRC AND HAVE ANOTHER FIRST
6:43:21PM READING.
6:43:21PM THINGS SUCH AS HEIGHT, THAT CAN BE MODIFIED BETWEEN FIRST
6:43:24PM AND SECOND READING.
6:43:25PM HAVE TO ADD IT TO THE REVISION SHEET.
6:43:27PM THINGS SUCH AS ACCESS, COLUMBUS, OBVIOUSLY THAT WOULD MAKE
6:43:31PM IT GO BACK TO DRC AND YOU GUYS FOR FIRST READING BECAUSE
6:43:35PM THEY HAD TO MODIFY THE ACCESS AND POSSIBLY ADD RETAIL TO
6:43:38PM THAT.
6:43:39PM THERE ARE MINOR THINGS THAT CAN BE CHANGED BETWEEN FIRST AND
6:43:41PM SECOND READING.
6:43:42PM EVEN IF IT CAN'T BE CHANGED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
6:43:45PM READING, THERE IS THE OPTION TO GO BACK TO DRC AND COME BACK
6:43:52PM FOR FIRST READING.
6:43:53PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: REBUTTAL.
6:43:54PM >> OUT OF RESPECT FOR EVERYONE'S TIME AND A LONG AGENDA THAT
6:43:58PM YOU'RE FACING, WE'LL GO AHEAD AND REQUEST A CONTINUANCE AND
6:44:01PM WE'LL RETURN IN FRONT OF YOU WITH MORE DETAILS.
6:44:09PM >>LUIS VIERA: I WAS GOING TO OFFER TO MAKE THE MOTION.
6:44:12PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I WAS GOING TO ASK WHAT DATE IS AVAILABLE?
6:44:19PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: COUNCIL, I ASKED STAFF TO COME PREPARED
6:44:22PM WITH OPEN DATES TONIGHT BASED ON THE LENGTH OF THE AGENDA.
6:44:25PM IF THE SITUATION SHOULD ARISE, YOU WOULD BE PREPARED TO KNOW
6:44:29PM WHEN YOU HAVE AN OPEN DATE.
6:44:30PM STAFF?
6:44:31PM OPEN AVAILABLE DATES THAT WOULD WORK WITH THE PETITIONER?
6:44:37PM >> WE COULD DO DECEMBER.
6:44:40PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: IS DECEMBER ENOUGH TIME TO BE ABLE TO
6:44:42PM ACCOMPLISH WHAT THEY WANT?
6:44:46PM >> DECEMBER IS FINE WITH THE APPLICANT.
6:44:49PM >>CATE WELLS: CATE WELLS, LEGAL DEPARTMENT.
6:44:51PM THE PURPOSE OF THE CONTINUANCE IS TO LOOK AT REVISING THE
6:44:54PM SITE PLAN, THEN I DON'T KNOW THAT A DECEMBER 12 HEARING
6:44:58PM MAKES SENSE.
6:44:59PM WHAT I HEARD WAS THE PURPOSE OF THE CONTINUANCE WAS TO WORK
6:45:02PM ON REBUTTAL AND PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
6:45:07PM SO I GUESS THE APPLICANT NEEDS TO SHARE WITH YOU WHAT THE
6:45:10PM PURPOSE OF THE CONTINUANCE IS SO WE CAN IDENTIFY AN
6:45:12PM APPROPRIATE DATE.
6:45:13PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YEAH, CAN YOU CLARIFY THE PURPOSE OF
6:45:15PM THIS CONTINUANCE?
6:45:16PM DECEMBER IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.
6:45:54PM >> DECEMBER.
6:46:12PM THERE WILL NOT BE ENOUGH TIME FOR DRC, SO THESE WOULD BE
6:46:17PM CHANGES THAT COULD BE DONE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
6:46:20PM THEY ARE CHANGES THAT -- WE CAN LOOK INTO CHANGES THAT WOULD
6:46:26PM TRIGGER OTHER REVIEWERS, ASIDE FROM HEIGHT THAT WOULDN'T
6:46:30PM CAUSE US TO GO BACK TO ANOTHER DRC.
6:46:33PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: IS THAT DECEMBER 12?
6:46:35PM >> YES, SIR.
6:46:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: IS THERE SPACE DECEMBER 12?
6:46:37PM >> YES.
6:46:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: CAN I GET A MOTION TO CONTINUE TO
6:46:39PM DECEMBER 12.
6:46:41PM >> SO MOVED.
6:46:41PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: 5:01 P.M.

6:46:47PM 33602.

07:04:25PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: YES, MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL AND THE
07:04:28PM PUBLIC, CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY.
07:04:28PM A COUPLE OF MATTERS.
07:04:33PM ONE, I WILL PREFACE WITH AN APOLOGY ON A RULE RELEVANT TO
07:04:37PM LAST MEETING.
07:04:38PM A RELATIVELY NEW RULE, AND I WANT TO BRING IT TO YOUR
07:04:41PM ATTENTION TO HAVE IT IN TOP OF YOUR MIND AND THE SAME WITH
07:04:44PM THE PUBLIC.
07:04:45PM THAT IS RULE 6-J-3.
07:04:49PM NO REQUEST FOR A CONTINUANCE BY THE APPLICANT OR PETITIONER
07:04:52PM SHALL BE GRANTED AT A QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING AFTER
07:04:56PM THE APPLICANT, PETITIONER, HAS COMPLETED ITS INITIAL
07:04:59PM PRESENTATION UNLESS UPON DETERMINATION BY THE CITY COUNCIL
07:05:03PM THAT IT IS NECESSARY FOR PURPOSES OF PROCEDURAL DUE PROCESS.
07:05:07PM WELL, WHAT HAS HAPPENED -- IT IS COMING BACK IN DECEMBER FOR
07:05:17PM WHATEVER REASON YOU WILL DETERMINE, BUT AFTER THEN, JUST
07:05:20PM KNOW THAT THIS RULE WILL APPLY HENCEFORTH.
07:05:25PM I WILL MAKE SURE IT IS ON THE TOP OF MY MIND THAT, AGAIN,
07:05:28PM THAT COUNCIL DID PLACE THIS RULE THAT ONCE A PETITIONER
07:05:31PM BEGINS THEIR INITIAL PRESENTATION, YOU CAN'T GO AN HOUR AND
07:05:36PM THEN ASK FOR A CONTINUANCE WITHOUT HAVING A --
07:05:40PM SOMETHING THAT IS ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED BY PROCEDURAL DUE
07:05:43PM PROCESS.
07:05:43PM THAT IS NUMBER ONE.
07:05:44PM SECOND ITEM I WANT TO REMIND COUNCIL, PLEASE, FOR THE PURPOSE
07:05:49PM OF THE RECORD, REMAIN MINDFUL THAT YOU REFRAIN FROM
07:05:53PM TESTIFYING AS TO FACTS UPON WHICH ARE RELEVANT TO YOU, BUT
07:05:58PM YOU ARE GOING TO BASE YOUR DECISION ON.
07:05:59PM TESTIMONY FROM THE WITNESSES RATHER THAN YOU TESTIFYING YOUR
07:06:05PM OWN PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERIENCE SO YOU CAN ACTUALLY --
07:06:07PM WHEN YOU COME TO MAKE THE DECISION, RELY ON FACTS THAT ARE IN
07:06:11PM EVIDENCE THROUGH THE PROCESS OF THE PUBLIC HEARING, NOT
07:06:14PM THROUGH YOUR OWN TAMPA.
07:06:16PM THANK YOU.
07:06:16PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: JUST FOR CLARIFICATION, SELF-IMPOSED COUNCIL
07:06:22PM RULES AND COUNCIL CHOOSES NOT FOLLOW THE RULES, AN ACTION THAT IS
07:06:27PM TAKEN.
07:06:27PM NOT SOMETHING -- NO RECOURSE FOR THAT, CORRECT?
07:06:30PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: WELL, ACTUALLY, TECHNICALLY, NOBODY RAISED
07:06:35PM THE RULE.
07:06:36PM AND CERTAINLY -- I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT.
07:06:38PM AND MOVING FORWARD, IT IS COMING BACK DECEMBER 12 FOR
07:06:43PM COMPLETION ONE WAY OR THE OTHER OR DETERMINATION ONE WAY OR
07:06:47PM THE OTHER.
07:06:47PM BUT IF YOU WISH TO WAIVE YOUR RULES, THAT IS YOUR
07:06:53PM PREROGATIVE AND REQUIRES A SUPERMAJORITY VOTE OF FIVE.
07:06:57PM >>LYNN HURTAK: MIGHT BE SOMETHING GOOD TO ADD TO SOME OF OUR
07:06:59PM MORE LARGER MORE CONTROVERSIAL DECISIONS.
07:07:03PM WE MAY WISH TO SAY THAT AT THE BEGINNING OF EVENING
07:07:07PM MEETING OR JUST OVERALL.
07:07:09PM AT THE BEGINNING OF EVERY EVENING MEETING SO THE PETITIONERS
07:07:14PM KNOW.
07:07:14PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT, AND GLAD YOU ARE

07:30:55PM WEST, YOU GET INTO THE PORT TAMPA BAY WHERE YOU HAVE THE
07:30:58PM HEAVY INDUSTRIAL USES.

07:31:43PM TREES IN THE REAR THAT THE APPLICANT IS PRESERVING.
07:31:45PM BUT I WOULD LIKE TO NOTE THAT -- AS YOU KNOW PROBABLY FROM
07:31:50PM THE PREVIOUS REZONINGS TO THE NORTH, THERE IS AN ALLEY NORTH
07:31:52PM OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
07:31:53PM THE APPLICANT WORKED EXTENSIVELY WITH STAFF TO REDESIGN WHEN
07:31:58PM THEY CAME IN TO DO ALLEY ACCESS AND FROM THE ALLEY TO BETTER
07:32:02PM PROVIDE STREET TREATMENT AND ALONG THE FRONT OF THE
07:32:05PM PROPERTY.
07:32:05PM THEY RESUBMITTED THEIR SITE PLAN AFTER THEY REDID IT.
07:32:09PM WENT BACK TO ANOTHER DRC.
07:32:11PM FDOT SHOWED UP FOR THE DRC WHEN THEY DIDN'T SHOW UP FOR
07:32:18PM FOR ONE.
07:32:18PM THEY OBJECTED TO ACCESSING THE SITE FROM 20th STREET.
07:32:23PM THAT KIND OF THREW MAJOR COMPLICATIONS IN THIS, AND THAT IS
07:32:27PM WHY WE ARE WITH THIS PLAN NOW.
07:32:29PM WANTED TO ADD SOME CONTEXT THAT THE APPLICANT DID TRY TO USE
07:32:33PM THE ALLEY AND IT BEAM EXTRA COMPLICATED WITH FDOT'S

07:33:12PM THIS IS LOOKING DIRECTLY AT THE SUBJECT SITE.
07:33:15PM THIS IS LOOKING WEST.
07:33:22PM TOWARD DOWNTOWN TAMPA AND THE PORT ALONG DAVIS STREET.

07:33:32PM ANOTHER MULTIFAMILY UNIT AS WELL.

07:33:52PM THIS IS SOUTH 20th STREET HERE.
07:33:54PM THIS IS LOOKING EAST ALONG DAVIS BACK IN TOWARD PALMETTO
07:34:02PM BEACH.
07:34:02PM THIS IS LOOKING NORTH ALONG 20th STREET.
07:34:07PM YOU SEE THE PORT OVER HERE.
07:34:08PM AND THEN YOU CAN SEE THAT ALLEY THAT RUNS ALONG THE NORTH OF
07:34:12PM THE SITE.
07:34:12PM THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH.
07:34:15PM ON 20th STREET.
07:34:18PM ANOTHER VIEW LOOKING NORTH ON 20th STREET.
07:34:22PM THE SUBJECT SITE ENDS RIGHT HERE, AND THAT IS THE ENTRANCE OF
07:34:26PM THE ALLEY FROM 20th STREET.
07:34:28PM THAT IS A VIEW LOOKING DOWN THE ALLEY.
07:34:30PM THIS IS WHERE THAT OTHER DEVELOPMENT THAT WAS APPROVED NOT
07:34:34PM TOO LONG AGO WITH SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED.
07:34:38PM AND HERE IS A VIEW OF THE ALLEYS WITH THE SUBJECT SITE HERE
07:34:42PM AND OTHER PREVIOUSLY APPROVED DEVELOPMENT WILL BE THERE.
07:34:45PM DEVELOPMENT COMPLIANCE STAFF REVIEWED THE APPLICANT AND
07:34:49PM FOUND IT CONSISTENT.
07:34:50PM SHOULD IT BE THE PLEASURE OF COUNCIL TO APPROVE THE

07:35:01PM HAVE COPIES OF THE REVISION SHEET FOR YOU ALL.
07:35:04PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
07:35:06PM >>LYNN HURTAK: A QUESTION WITH WHY AREN'T THEY -- ARE
07:35:09PM THEY GOING TO TRY TO CLOSE THE ALLEY THEN?
07:35:12PM IF FDOT IS NOT GOING TO LET THEM USE IT, WHAT IS THE POINT?
07:35:18PM >>SAMUEL THOMAS: VERY COMPLICATED.
07:35:20PM FDOT DOESN'T OWN THE ALLEY, BUT CITY OF TAMPA OWNS THE ALLEY.
07:35:24PM FDOT CANNOT FORCE THE CITY OF TAMPA TO CLOSE THE ALLEY, BUT
07:35:29PM ON FDOT'S PORTION.
07:35:32PM IF THEY WANTED TO PUT SOMETHING THERE, THEY COULD.
07:35:35PM I THINK IT WILL BE MORE SO ALONG THE LINES THAT WHEN THE
07:35:38PM APPLICANT APPLIED FOR A PERMIT AND THEY WENT TO GO IMPROVE
07:35:42PM THE ALLEY, FDOT WILL DENY THEIR ACCESS TO 20th STREET.
07:35:47PM >>LYNN HURTAK: MAYBE A QUESTION FOR THE APPLICANT.
07:35:50PM WHY DIDN'T THEY WANT TO VACATE THE ALLEY FOR EXTRA SPACE.
07:35:53PM SO I WILL ASK.
07:35:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
07:35:56PM APPLICANT, COME ON UP.

08:43:31PM A CLINIC RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET.
08:43:34PM SUBJECT SITE IS A COMMUNITY THAT IS PRESENT AROUND BAYSHORE
08:43:43PM BOULEVARD AND COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 35 IN THE RED JUST TO THE
08:43:46PM WEST OF THE SITE.
08:43:46PM THE COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35 ACTUALLY WOULD ALLOW FOR GREATER
08:43:56PM -- MANY USES ARE -- CAN BE CONSIDERED UNDER THAT FUTURE LAND
08:43:59PM USE CATEGORY.
08:44:00PM WE DID FIND THIS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
08:44:02PM SINCE THEY ARE ONLY ASKING FOR THREE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACH
08:44:05PM UNITS.
08:44:06PM WE FOUND THAT IT WILL PROVIDE DEVELOPMENT THAT IS COMPARABLE
08:44:08PM AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA.
08:44:10PM AND ALSO PROVIDE A NICE SENSITIVE TRANSITION FROM THE
08:44:13PM COMMERCIAL USES TO THE -- TO THE NORTH AND THE SINGLE-FAMILY
08:44:16PM DETACHED RESIDENCES TO THE SOUTH.
08:44:18PM SO THE REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH LU POLICY 9.7.3.
08:44:25PM WHICH ENCOURAGES TRANSITION OF DENSITY BETWEEN SINGLE-FAMILY
08:44:28PM AND MORE INTENSE RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL USES.
08:44:31PM AGAIN, WEST GANDY BOULEVARD IS A TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDOR
08:44:37PM AND PLAN PROMOTES INCREASED DENSITY AND GROWTH IN AND ALONG

08:46:17PM LET'S SEE HERE AS WE GO INTO THE SITE PLAN NOW.
08:46:20PM THIS IS THE SITE PLAN PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT.
08:46:22PM DEVELOPMENT PROPOSES THREE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED UNITS.
08:46:26PM I DO WANT TO PROVIDE SOME BACKGROUND OF AN ASSOCIATED CASE
08:46:29PM THAT IS RELATED TO THIS APPLICATION.
08:46:31PM LET'S SEE HERE.
08:46:33PM SPECIAL USE 1 APPLICATION FOR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY
08:46:38PM ATTACHED USES WAS DENIED ADMINISTRATIVELY IN JANUARY 2024
08:46:43PM DUE TO THE APPLICANT NOT COMPLYING WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF
08:46:46PM 27-132.
08:46:47PM AN ADMINISTRATIVE DENIAL WAS APPEALED AND UPHELD BY CITY
08:46:52PM COUNCIL.
08:46:52PM UPHELD IT CITING THAT THE APPLICANT FAILED TO PROVIDE
08:46:56PM COMPETENT AND SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE OF SPECIFIC CRITERIA IN
08:47:00PM 27-132 SHOULD BE WAIVED.
08:47:02PM THE APPLICANT IS NOW APPLYING TO REZONE THE PROPERTY WITH
08:47:05PM THIS PD REQUEST.
08:47:07PM SO -- AND I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO NOTE THAT THE SENT SECTION
08:47:11PM 27-132 DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS PD REZONING ACTION.
08:47:15PM SO THAT IS JUST A QUICK SUMMARY ON THE BACKGROUND OF THIS
08:47:20PM CASE.
08:47:21PM SO YOU CAN SEE THAT THE THREE UNITS ARE ORIENTED TOWARD
08:47:25PM SOUTH QUINCY STREET.
08:47:26PM EACH UNIT HAS A TWO-CAR GARAGE.
08:47:29PM SO -- LET'S SEE HERE.

08:47:35PM YOU HAVE TWO IN EACH OF THE GARAGES AND THE DRIVEWAY IS ABLE

08:47:41PM THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A FIVE-FOOT SIDEWALK ALONG
08:47:45PM QUINCY.
08:47:46PM AND THEN ADDITIONALLY, THE MAXIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT IS 35
08:47:50PM FEET.

08:48:30PM THIS IS LOOKING WEST DIRECTLY TO THE SUBJECT SITE.
08:48:33PM YOU HAVE AN OLD COMMERCIAL BUILDING ON THE SUBJECT SITE AND
08:48:36PM WHAT LOOKS TO BE A SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED UNIT.
08:48:40PM THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH ALONG QUINCY.
08:48:42PM YOU CAN SEE THAT TRANSITION HAPPENS FROM THE COMMERCIAL USES
08:48:46PM TO THE SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED USES TO THE SOUTH ALONG
08:48:48PM QUINCY.
08:48:49PM THIS IS LOOKING NORTH ALONG QUINCY.
08:48:52PM YOU CAN SEE THE COMMERCIAL USES JUST TO THE NORTH OF THE
08:48:56PM SUBJECT SITE HERE AND HERE AS WELL.
08:48:57PM THIS IS LOOKING EAST ACROSS QUINCY AT THE VETERINARIAN
08:49:04PM CLINIC.
08:49:04PM THIS IS A LITTLE BIT FARTHER NORTH ON QUINCY.
08:49:10PM YOU CAN SEE THE START OF THE RESTAURANT THAT SAY LONG GANDY
08:49:14PM BOULEVARD THERE.
08:49:14PM THEN HERE IS ANOTHER VIEW LOOKING SOUTH AT THE EXISTING
08:49:19PM STRUCTURES ON THE SITE AND THE SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES TO THE
08:49:23PM SOUTH.
08:49:23PM AND THEN HERE IS A DIFFERENT ANGLE FROM THE COMMERCIAL USE
08:49:26PM ACROSS, SO YOU CAN SEE THE SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED.
08:49:29PM THAT BORDER IS ON THE VETERINARIAN CLINIC ON THE OTHER SIDE.
08:49:34PM I WILL THROW THE SITE PLAN BACK UP.
08:49:40PM WHAT I FORGOT EARLIER, THE APPLICANT DESIGNED THE SITE
08:49:49PM SO THEY ARE NOT IMPACTING THE CLUSTER OF TREES SO THEY HAVE
08:49:52PM THEIR PROTECTED RADIUSES AND WON'T BE IMPACTED.
08:49:56PM I WANTED TO POINT THAT OUT.
08:49:58PM DEVELOPMENT REVIEW STAFF FOUND IT CONSISTENT.

08:53:22PM SO WE ARE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTING YOUR APPROVAL.
08:53:26PM I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.
08:53:28PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS?
08:53:30PM ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK ON ITEM 15?
08:53:34PM YES, COME ON UP.
08:53:35PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
08:53:42PM >> SANDRA MARTIN.
08:53:43PM ABUTTING PROPERTY OWNER.
08:53:45PM I HAVE A COPY OF MY NOTES FOR EVERYONE ON THE COUNCIL.
08:53:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YEAH, IF YOU WANT TO GIVE.
08:53:50PM >> I AM A LITTLE NERVOUS AND TIRED.
08:53:57PM SOMETHING THAT I WILL SPEAK ON.
08:53:59PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: GO AHEAD.
08:54:04PM >> SANDRA MARTIN.
08:54:05PM I AM THE ABUTTING PROPERTY OWNER TO THE WEST OF THE PROPERTY
08:54:09PM THAT WAS NEVER SHOWN DURING ANY OF THE PICTURES.
08:54:12PM ABSOLUTELY NOT ONE SHOT OF MY PROPERTY THAT RUNS DIRECTLY
08:54:15PM BEHIND.
08:54:15PM THIS DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN RIGHTFULLY TURNED DOWN TWICE,
08:54:24PM ATTEMPTING TO REZONE THIS NONCONFORMING PROPERTY TO
08:54:27PM RESIDENTIAL.
08:54:29PM IT HAS BEEN TURNED DOWN ONCE BY THE THE CITY OF TAMPA ZONING
08:54:33PM DEPARTMENT.
08:54:33PM TURNED DOWN BY THE TAMPA CITY COUNCIL.
08:54:35PM NOW THE DEVELOPER IS TRYING TO SNEAK IN A NEW RESIDENTIAL
08:54:39PM REZONE VIA PD ZONING FORMAT.
08:54:43PM I THINK THIS IS REALLY ABSURD.
08:54:45PM I AM THE ABUTTING PROPERTY OWNER AND STRONGLY CONTEST ANY PD
08:54:49PM REZONING ATTEMPTS.
08:54:51PM ALL ABUTTING PROPERTY OWNERS CONTEST THE REZONING AS WELL.
08:54:56PM THE RECORD SHOULD SHOW THAT LAWRENCE GARCIA SUBMITTED A
08:55:01PM REBUTTAL AND COOK'S ENGLISH KITCHEN ALSO SUBMITTED A
08:55:06PM REBUTTAL TO THE REZONING.
08:55:08PM THEY ALSO SUBMITTED PICTURES OF THE -- OF THE STORMWATER
08:55:12PM DRAINAGE OR RUNOFF THAT WE HAVE DURING -- DURING THE ROUTINE
08:55:17PM STORMS -- NOT JUST THE HEAVY STORMS, BUT DURING ROUTINE
08:55:22PM STORMS BECAUSE THERE IS NO ADEQUATE STORMWATER DRAINAGE
08:55:27PM AROUND THE LOCATION.
08:55:28PM THIS IS ONE REASON WE BELIEVE THAT THE ZONING SHOULD BE
08:55:31PM DENIED.
08:55:31PM GOING ON TO BULLET NUMBER THREE.
08:55:34PM GRANTING ANYTHING LESS THAN THE CURRENT RESIDENTIAL ZONING
08:55:38PM IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.
08:55:40PM THEY ARE REQUESTING THAT FROM A 20-FOOT SETBACK TO A 15 WITH
08:55:46PM A MASSIVE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH LEAVES THE PERMEABLE AREA BEING
08:55:51PM TAKEN AWAY.
08:55:52PM SO ANY TYPE OF STORMWATER DRAINAGE WOULD GO INTO MY
08:55:58PM PROPERTY.
08:55:58PM LIKE I SAID, I LIVE TO THE WEST OF THE PROPERTY.
08:56:01PM ONCE YOU START BUILDING THIS PARTICULAR -- ONCE YOU START
08:56:08PM BUILDING THIS PARTICULAR BUILDING, YOU ARE GOING TO GO UP 11
08:56:12PM FEET ON ONE SIDE OF MY PROPERTY.
08:56:13PM I ALREADY HAVE 11 FEET ON THE OTHER SIDE OF MY PROPERTY.
08:56:17PM GUESS WHERE ALL THE RAIN WATER GOES TO, ALL THE STORMWATER,
08:56:21PM DIRECTLY INTO MY PROPERTY.
08:56:23PM GOES DIRECTLY ON TO MY PROPERTY.
08:56:25PM THE NATURAL RUNOFF THAT WOULD BE -- THE NATURAL RUNOFF IS
08:56:29PM NOW BLOCKED BY THIS RAISING OF THE PROPERTY, ALONG THE TREE
08:56:34PM LINES.
08:56:34PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YOU STILL HAVE 30 SECONDS.
08:56:38PM >> 30 SECONDS OF FOLLOW-UP.
08:56:40PM THERE WAS A POINT -- LIKE I SAID THEY WERE GOING TO PUT A
08:56:44PM STORMWATER IN, BUT I WOULD BE THE ONE WITH THE RETENTION
08:56:48PM POND.
08:56:48PM RIGHT NOW I AM CURRENTLY RETENTION POND.
08:56:51PM I REQUEST THAT ANY SETBACKS AND REDUCTIONS FOR THIS PROJECT
08:56:54PM BE DENIED AND HOW IT WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT THE SURROUNDING
08:56:58PM PROPERTY AND ABUTTING OWNERS.
08:57:01PM WHAT I BELIEVE ARE ZONING CODES ARE PUT INTO PLACE SO
08:57:05PM PROPERTY OWNER AND PRESENT AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENT ARE
08:57:08PM PROTECTED.
08:57:09PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
08:57:11PM >> YOU ARE WELCOME.
08:57:12PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NEXT SPEAKER, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
08:57:15PM >> GOOD EVENING, MY NAME IS STEPHANIE POYNOR.
08:57:31PM WANT TO POINT THIS OUT TO YOU.
08:57:32PM THIS FRONT EASEMENT IS THE FRONT YARD -- THE FRONT OF THE
08:57:36PM BUILDING, RIGHT.
08:57:37PM THEY SHOWED IT TO YOU.
08:57:38PM HERE IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS.
08:57:40PM THEY ARE COUNTING THOSE AS PARKING SPACES.
08:57:42PM SO THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE IS ONLY GOING TO BE 15 FEET FROM
08:57:47PM THE ROAD.
08:57:47PM AND YOU GOT A FIVE-FOOT SIDEWALK IN THERE.
08:57:50PM I WANT Y'ALL TO LOOK AT THIS.
08:57:51PM LOOK AT THE WIDTH OF -- THE LENGTH OF ALL OF THESE VEHICLES.
08:57:56PM I AM SURE YOU WILL SEE A FAMILIAR ONE.
08:57:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YEAH, I DO.
08:58:00PM >> ONLY ONE ON THERE THAT IS LESS THAN 15 FEET.
08:58:03PM YOU CAN'T PARK THERE.
08:58:04PM YOU CAN'T PARK IN THOSE DRIVEWAYS.
08:58:08PM Y'ALL DON'T DRIVE GIANT VEHICLES.
08:58:10PM YES, MA'AM, THEY ARE YOUR CARS.
08:58:11PM I DID IT -- I DID IT LAST WEEK.
08:58:16PM I DID IT LAST WEEK DURING DAY.
08:58:18PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: VERY CREATIVE.
08:58:21PM >> YOUR CAR PARKING SPACES ARE LABELED.
08:58:25PM GIVE ME A BREAK.
08:58:26PM THE STAFF REPORT SAYS -- THE STAFF REPORT SAYS IT REQUIRES
08:58:30PM SEVEN PARK SPACES.
08:58:31PM IF YOU CAN'T PARK IN FRONT OF YOUR HOUSE, IT HOME HAS SIX.
08:58:35PM NEXT THING.
08:58:36PM I NEED TO SCROLL OUT.
08:58:38PM ALL RIGHT.
08:58:39PM SO THE LOT SIZE IS 7906.
08:58:43PM AND THE STAFF REPORT SAYS YOU CONDITION BUILD ANYTHING ON A
08:58:47PM 7906 LOT BECAUSE HAS TO BE 10,000 SQUARE FEET FOR
08:58:51PM COMMERCIAL.
08:58:51PM GUESS WHAT, IF YOU DO THE MATH AND THESE NIFTY LITTLE
08:58:55PM SETBACKS, 3509 SQUARE FEET THAT YOU WILL SUBTRACT FROM THAT.
08:59:00PM BUT I JUST CONFIRMED WITH MR. SCOTT, THAT MOST DRIVEWAYS ARE
08:59:05PM 18 FEET WIDE FOR A TWO-CAR DRIVEWAY.
08:59:09PM 18 TIMES 50 IS 270.
08:59:13PM WITH OUR QUARTERBACKS, WE ARE AT 5126 IMPERMEABLE SPOTS.
08:59:20PM SO THAT PUTS THEM AT 64% IMPERMEABLE.
08:59:25PM YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT.
08:59:27PM IT IS IT IS 50%.
08:59:30PM THAT'S THE RULE.
08:59:31PM AND THESE POOR FOLKS NEXT DOOR -- THE YOU HAVE ALREADY SEEN
08:59:35PM THE STUFF FROM COOK'S.
08:59:36PM THEY HAVE TWO INCHES OF WATER ON A RAINY DAY AT COOK'S.
08:59:40PM OKAY.
08:59:41PM THE OWNER WASN'T ABLE TO BE HERE TONIGHT.
08:59:43PM I GAVE YOU THE SU-1.
08:59:48PM THE FIRST ONE, THE SU-1, THE SECOND ONE.
08:59:51PM YOU GUYS.
08:59:52PM THEY BROUGHT IT THROUGH HERE FOR A PETITION OF REVIEW IN
08:59:55PM MAY.
08:59:56PM WHY ARE WE EVEN TALKING ABOUT THIS AGAIN?
08:59:59PM HERE WE GO AGAIN.
09:00:00PM IT HAVEN'T EVEN BEEN SIX MONTHS.
09:00:04PM AND WE ARE ROLLING THE DICE.
09:00:05PM YOU KNOW WHAT, NOTHING HAS CHANGED.
09:00:07PM IF YOU LOOK IN THE PACKET THAT GAVE YOU, SAME SITE PLANS,
09:00:12PM SAME ELEVATIONS.
09:00:12PM ALL THE SAME CRAP.
09:00:14PM AND THE STAFF REPORT TELLS THEM TO GO AND LABEL IT ALL.
09:00:17PM SO THEY JUST LEFT IT UNLABELED ALL THREE TIMES THEY APPLIED
09:00:21PM FOR IT AND DIDN'T BOTHER TO PUT IT ON THERE.
09:00:24PM GIVE ME A BREAK.
09:00:25PM THIS IS A CRAPPY PLAN.
09:00:27PM A CRAPPY PLAN ONCE.
09:00:29PM A CRAPPY PLAN TWICE AND A CRAPPY PLAN THE THIRD TIME.
09:00:34PM I GAVE YOU THE REASON TO DENY IT FROM COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AT
09:00:38PM THE END.
09:00:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU.
09:00:40PM ANYBODY ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK IN MR. SHELBY, DO YOU WANT
09:00:44PM TO SPEAK?
09:00:45PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: FOR THE PURPOSE AND I BELIEVE STAFF DID
09:00:47PM MENTION THIS WITH REGARD TO THE SU-1, AND THE SU-1 CRITERIA
09:00:53PM IS DIFFERENT THAN THE PD CRITERIA IN FRONT OF.
09:00:58PM AND THE DECISION HAS TO BE PACED ON THE --
09:01:02PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ON THE SU-1.
09:01:06PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: NOT ON THE SU-1 BUT THE PD REQUEST.
09:01:10PM THAT IS WHAT THE BASIC DETERMINATIONS ARE.
09:01:13PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE?
09:01:15PM MR. MICHELINI, YOU HAVE REBUTTAL, SIR?
09:01:19PM >> HALF OF WHAT WAS SAID WAS INACCURATE.
09:01:21PM WE ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE TWO ENCLOSED CAR SPACES AND THOSE
09:01:26PM ARE PROVIDED WITH IN THE DEPTH OF THOSE GARAGES ARE 22 FEET
09:01:30PM IN DEPTH.
09:01:31PM THE DIMENSION FROM THE EDGE OF THE BUILDING TO THE EDGE OF
09:01:34PM THE PROPERTY LINE IS 18 FEET, NOT 15 FEET.
09:01:38PM THOSE ARE SUPPLEMENTAL PARKING AREAS.
09:01:41PM THOSE ARE NOT REQUIRED PARKING AREAS.
09:01:44PM AS I SAID TO YOU, WE REDUCED THE -- REDUCED THE NUMBER OF
09:01:49PM UNITS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE MET GREEN SPACE.
09:01:51PM TO MAKE SURE WE MET DRAINAGE.
09:01:53PM YOU CAN NOT WAIVE DRAINAGE.
09:01:56PM SO WE CAN NOT -- WE CAN NOT TAKE WATER FROM THIS SITE AND
09:01:59PM PUT IT ON TO ANOTHER SITE.
09:02:01PM IT IS NOT ALLOWED.
09:02:02PM ALL OF WHAT IS REQUIRED BY THE -- BY THE CODE HAS TO BE
09:02:06PM RETAINED AND PLACED ON THIS SITE.
09:02:09PM AS I -- AS -- REFRESH YOUR MEMORY ABOUT THE ANALYSIS.
09:02:15PM AND IT WAS FOUND TO BE CONSISTENT FROM THE CITY STAFF.
09:02:19PM WAS DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENT, GROUND FLOOR ENTRANCES NEWS
09:02:24PM FACE THE FRONT YARD.
09:02:26PM PROPOSED PLAN MEETS THESE REQUIREMENTS.
09:02:28PM AUTO STORAGE AREA PROVIDED IN THE FRONT OR CORNER YARD FOR
09:02:32PM TWO REQUIRED SPACE SHALL BE ENCLOSED.
09:02:35PM THAT CRITERIA IS MET.
09:02:37PM FEW THEIR BE THREE UNITS MUST -- SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED
09:02:43PM CONTINUOUS CONFIGURATION.
09:02:44PM WE HAVE.
09:02:46PM WE HAVE THREE UNITS AND NOT EIGHT.
09:02:48PM THE ELEVATION SUBMITTED MUST DEPICT WHAT YOU ARE PLANNING TO
09:02:55PM CONSTRUCT.
09:02:56PM AND THAT IS CONSISTENT AND COMPATIBLE AS BOTH THE CITY STAFF
09:03:00PM AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION WERE POINTED OUT.
09:03:04PM PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED CG.
09:03:07PM AND SO -- I AM NOT SURE WHERE THEY GOT THE INFORMATION THAT
09:03:11PM THIS WAS CHANGING FROM COMMERCIAL TO RESIDENTIAL.
09:03:15PM IT IS A DOWNZONING.
09:03:17PM NOT AN INCREASE OF ZONING.
09:03:20PM I WILL SHOW YOU AGAIN THE AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH OF THE PROXIMITY.
09:03:25PM I AM NOT SURE WHAT THEY WERE REFERRING TO.
09:03:27PM WAS THIS PROPERTY HERE HAS -- HAS THE SAME -- IT IS CC-35.
09:03:32PM AND -- AND IT IS COMMERCIAL.
09:03:35PM I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT WHEN THEY ARE
09:03:37PM TALKING OF INVADING THEIR PROPERTY.
09:03:39PM THESE PROPERTIES BACK UP TO THE BACK OF THIS BUILDING WITH
09:03:42PM THE RETENTION AREAS IN THE BACK UNDERNEATH THE ENTIRE AREA
09:03:47PM AND DECKS PROVIDED ARE OVER THE RETENTION AREA.
09:03:51PM PROVIDED THE GREEN SPACE.
09:03:53PM SHIFTED THE BUILDINGS BACK TO PROTECT THE TREE CANOPY THAT
09:03:57PM IS HERE.
09:03:57PM WE ARE ADJACENT TO THE -- TO THE MEDICAL OFFICE WHICH IS THE
09:04:01PM VETERINARY CLINIC HERE.
09:04:02PM IF YOU LOOK AT THIS PROPERTY LINE, ADDITIONAL APPROXIMATELY
09:04:10PM 17 FEET FROM THAT PROPERTY LINE TO THE EDGE OF THE PAVEMENT.
09:04:12PM SO YOU HAVE -- YOU HAVE THAT PLUS -- PLUS THE 18 FEET HERE
09:04:18PM PLUS THE ENCLOSED GARAGES.
09:04:21PM AGAIN, THE CRITERIA HERE IS FOR A PD.
09:04:25PM I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO A LOT OF DETAIL ABOUT THE SPECIAL
09:04:28PM USE.
09:04:28PM IT HAS TO DUE WITH ACCESS AND MET GOING INTO THE PD PROCESS.
09:04:37PM I WILL SHOW YOU A SECTION.
09:04:40PM THIS IS THE REAR SHOWING YOU THE DRAINAGE UNDERNEATH.
09:04:42PM DECK AND THE EDGE OF THE BUILDING BEING 15 FEET.
09:04:47PM THAT IS -- THAT IS COMPATIBLE AND CONSISTENT WITH EVERYTHING
09:04:50PM IN THE AREA, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE OTHER MULTIPLE TOWN
09:04:56PM HOUSES THAT ARE JUST HALF A BLOCK AWAY SO I WILL BE HAPPY TO
09:05:02PM ANSWER ANY MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE DRAINAGE ISSUE.
09:05:05PM IT IS SIMPLY -- IT IS SIMPLY INACCURATE.
09:05:08PM WE WENT OUT AND WE ALSO DID A SURVEY.
09:05:11PM WE HAVE THE SURVEY HERE SHOWING THAT THE PROPERTIES GOING
09:05:15PM TOWARD GANDY BOULEVARD ARE HIGHER THAN OUR PROPERTY.
09:05:18PM SO THE WATER THAT IS COMING -- IS COMING DOWN.
09:05:21PM IT IS NOT GOING UPHILL.
09:05:23PM BUT WE ARE TREATING THE OFF-SITE WATER AS WELL AS OUR WATER.
09:05:27PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.
09:05:30PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: COULD YOU PUT THE SITE PLAN BACK UP THERE
09:05:33PM FOR US.
09:05:33PM >> WHICH SITE PLAN?
09:05:35PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SHOWING THE SETBACKS.
09:05:37PM EXPLAIN TO ME AGAIN, SO THE ROAD --
09:05:44PM >> THE EDGE OF PAVEMENT IS OUT -- IS OUT HERE.
09:05:48PM THIS IS THE -- THIS IS THE --
09:05:52PM >> THAT IS -- THE EASEMENT?
09:05:56PM >> THAT IS THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.
09:05:57PM THAT IS QUINCY.
09:05:58PM SO YOU HAVE -- YOU HAVE QUINCY.
09:06:02PM YOU HAVE THIS -- THIS DIMENSION HERE.
09:06:05PM PLUS YOU HAVE THIS DIMENSION HERE.
09:06:08PM WHICH IS ON OUR PROPERTY.
09:06:11PM THIS DIMENSION HERE IS 18 FEET.
09:06:13PM THE DIMENSION THAT IS INSIDE THE GARAGES, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE
09:06:17PM LISTENED TO COUNCIL'S DISCUSSION ABOUT DON'T BRING A 20-FOOT
09:06:21PM GARAGE DEPTH INTO US.
09:06:23PM SO THEY ARE ALL 22 FEET IN DEPTH.
09:06:25PM SO YOU HAVE 22 FEET HERE.
09:06:27PM ANOTHER 18 FEET HERE.
09:06:28PM AND ANOTHER 17 FEET BETWEEN THE PROPERTY LINE AND THE EDGE
09:06:31PM OF PAVEMENT.
09:06:33PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: OKAY.
09:06:34PM SETBACK UPON THE BACK -- WE COVERED THAT.
09:06:37PM >> 15 FEET HERE.
09:06:39PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SOUTHERN SIDE.
09:06:42PM >> SEVEN FEET.
09:06:44PM SEVEN FEET ON OUR SIDE AND THE 10-FOOT ALLEY WHICH HAS NOT
09:06:49PM BEEN VACATED.
09:06:49PM WE SHIFTED THE BUILDING UP HERE WHICH IS -- THE LINE TO
09:06:54PM ACCOMMODATE THOSE TREES.
09:06:55PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: BY RIGHT, THIS PROPERTY WAS DEVELOPED WITH
09:06:59PM THE EUCLIDIAN ZONING, WHAT WOULD BE THE SETBACKS IN.
09:07:04PM >> TEN FEET ON EACH SIDE AND I THINK IT IS --
09:07:08PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: LET ME ASK STAFF THAT.
09:07:11PM >> STAFF CAN ANSWER THAT.
09:07:13PM CG.
09:07:14PM >> SHOULD BE 10 AND ZERO ON OTHER SIDES.
09:07:18PM SETBACKS DRASTICALLY LOWER THAN WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED RIGHT
09:07:23PM NOW.
09:07:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: IT WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY WORSE AS FAR AS
09:07:28PM PERMEABLE SURFACE.
09:07:31PM >> COMPARED TO THESE, YES, THE QUARTERBACKS WILL BE
09:07:34PM DRASTICALLY REDUCED, BUT GETTING WHETHER THIS WILL BE
09:07:40PM DEVELOPED BY RIGHTS IS ANOTHER CAN OF WORMS.
09:07:43PM >> YOU CAN'T WAIVE THE STORMWATER REGARDLESS.
09:07:47PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I UNDERSTAND.
09:07:48PM >> AND WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED HERE.
09:07:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MR. SHELBY?
09:07:59PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: I JUST WANTED TO -- THE EUCLIDIAN ZONING
09:08:07PM WHICH IS CG.
09:08:09PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE?
09:08:10PM IS THERE A MOTION -- YES, MA'AM.
09:08:12PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I HAD A QUESTION FOR STAFF.
09:08:14PM IF COULD YOU PUT THE -- PUT THE SITE PLAN BACK UP.
09:08:23PM I WILL ADMIT, I DID HAVE THIS QUESTION.
09:08:36PM BUT WHEN SOMEONE BROUGHT IT UP.
09:08:40PM PERMEABLE SURFACE.
09:08:43PM TALK TO ME ABOUT PERMEABLE SURFACE.
09:08:45PM HOW MUCH PERMEABLE SURFACE IS ON HERE.
09:08:49PM >> I WILL BE HONEST, I WON'T BE ABLE TO ANSWER YOUR
09:08:53PM QUESTIONS WELL OF PERMEABLE SERVICE.
09:08:55PM THAT IS NOT TYPICALLY A REVIEWER WHO WORKS WITH ME AND NOT
09:08:59PM SOMETHING I TYPICALLY REVIEW UNDER.
09:09:01PM I CAN TELL YOU THINK STORMWATER RETENTION THAT IS OVER 50%.
09:09:04PM IF THEY GO OVER 50% OF PERMEABLE SURFACES, THEY HAVE TO
09:09:09PM RETAIN ALL THE STORMWATER ON THEIR SITE NO MATTER WHAT EVEN
09:09:13PM THEY GO OVER 50%.
09:09:14PM YOU CAN PROBABLY FIND IT ON THERE.
09:09:17PM >> THE DRIVEWAYS ARE ALL PERMEABLE.
09:09:21PM >>LYNN HURTAK: 57.
09:09:22PM HOW IS THAT NOT A WAIVER?
09:09:25PM >>DANNY COLLINS: JONATHAN, DO YOU KNOW?
09:09:31PM >> JONATHAN SCOTT, 57%.
09:09:33PM IT IS NOT A WAIVER.
09:09:34PM >>DANNY COLLINS: 57% PERVIOUS.
09:09:41PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
09:09:42PM >>DANNY COLLINS: DIDN'T GO OVER THE IMPERVIOUS.
09:09:46PM A TECHNICAL STANDARD THAT CAN'T BE WAIVED.
09:09:49PM ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
09:09:51PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
09:09:53PM IF NOT, A MOTION TO CLOSE.
09:09:55PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: MOTION TO CLOSE.
09:09:56PM >>LUIS VIERA: SECOND.
09:09:58PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
09:10:01PM WHO IS THE LAST PERSON.
09:10:03PM COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.
09:10:04PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I AM GOING TO READ THIS AND SUPPORT IT.
09:10:06PM MOSTLY BECAUSE OF THAT QUESTION I ASKED OF EUCLIDIAN ZONING
09:10:14PM WHAT IS ALLOWED ON THE PROPERTY AND DEVELOPING RIGHT NOW IS
09:10:17PM LESS INTENSE AND WE JUST DISCOVERED THAT 57% PERMEABLE
09:10:22PM SURFACE.
09:10:22PM SO I AM READING ORDINANCE REZONING PROPERTY IN THE GENERAL
09:10:26PM VICINITY OF 4901 AND 4093 SOUTH QUINCY STREET IN SECTION 1
09:10:34PM FROM ZONING DISTRICT CLASSIFICATIONS CG COMMERCIAL GENERAL
09:10:39PM TO PD.
09:10:40PM PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
09:10:42PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: A SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA.
09:10:43PM WE HAVE MR. SHELBY, COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
09:10:46PM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, GO AHEAD.
09:10:49PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I -- I RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE YOU WITH.
09:10:53PM BY JUST -- I DON'T THINK THIS PROMOTES AND ENCOURAGES
09:10:58PM DEVELOPMENT WHERE IT IS APPROPRIATE IN LOCATION, CHARACTER
09:11:00PM AND COMPATIBILITY.
09:11:01PM SO I AM GOING TO SAY NO.
09:11:02PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ALL RIGHT.
09:11:04PM WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.
09:11:05PM ROLL CALL VOTE.
09:11:06PM >>LYNN HURTAK: NO.

09:15:51PM COMMERCIAL AND THE MORE INTENSE USE ALONG THAT CORRIDOR.
09:15:56PM SO THIS IS THE SITE PLAN THAT WAS SUBMITTED BY THE

09:18:31PM THIS IS WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
09:18:33PM AND ANOTHER VIEW OF THIS WHICH IS ANOTHER PROPERTY WEST OF
09:18:39PM SUBJECT SITE.
09:18:40PM DRC STAFF REVIEWED THE REQUEST AND FINDS THE REQUEST
09:18:45PM INCONSISTENT, AND THIS IS DUE TO THE FINDINGS OF
09:18:51PM TRANSPORTATION RELATED TO THE PARKING WAIVER.
09:18:53PM THERE IS A WAIVER REQUEST TO REDUCE THE PARK BIG ONE SPACE
09:18:58PM SO NOT WITHSTANDING STAFF'S CONSISTENCY.
09:19:01PM IF CITY COUNCIL APPROVES THE APPLICATION, MODIFICATIONS TO
09:19:06PM THE SITE PLAN REQUIRED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING AND
09:19:09PM THIS WILL NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE OF TRANSPORTATION'S FINDING
09:19:13PM OF INCONSISTENT.

09:19:33PM OF THE BUILDING.
09:19:33PM AND I MANAGE IT.

09:20:18PM ANY OTHER CONFLICTS?
09:20:21PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
09:20:22PM >> ELLIE PROBASCO, THE OWNER OF 1011 NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE
09:20:31PM AND 1007 NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE.
09:20:33PM I BROUGHT THE FIRST PROPERTY 1011 NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE IN
09:20:37PM 2018.
09:20:37PM I RUN MY LAW PRACTICE OUT OF THAT PROPERTY.
09:20:40PM AT THE TIME IT WAS JUST MYSELF.
09:20:43PM SO IT WAS GREAT PROPERTY.
09:20:45PM I MADE FRIENDS WITH MY NEIGHBORS TO THE RIGHT OF ME.
09:20:47PM I HAVE A LAW OFFICE.
09:20:49PM TO THE LEFT OF ME, I HAD A GENTLEMAN THAT HAD A
09:20:52PM SINGLE-FAMILY HOME.
09:20:53PM WHEN HE WAS READY TO SELL, HE CAME OVER AND OFFERED ME FIRST
09:20:57PM RIGHT OF PURCHASE.
09:20:58PM AND I SNAPPED IT UP IN A HEARTBEAT.
09:21:00PM UNFORTUNATELY, THAT HOME WAS JUST IN DISARRAY AND REALLY
09:21:06PM UNSALVAGEABLE.
09:21:07PM SO WE HAD TO TEAR IT DOWN.
09:21:09PM I BOUGHT THAT PROPERTY IN 2022.
09:21:13PM RIGHT AFTER I FORMED A NEW LAW PRACTICE.
09:21:17PM AND TOOK ON TWO PARTNER.
09:21:18PM ONE OF MY PARTNERS IS HERE TODAY.
09:21:21PM PROBASCO BANE.
09:21:25PM WITH MORE PEOPLE, WE NEED MORE SPACE.
09:21:27PM I HAVE THE PROPERTIES TO THE SOUTH OF THE EMPTY LOT
09:21:32PM CURRENTLY IS A DENTIST.
09:21:34PM AND SO IT IS -- IT IS PRETTY MUCH A PROFESSIONAL ROW OF
09:21:39PM PEOPLE.
09:21:40PM ACROSS THE STREET IS SANCHEZ'S OFFICE.
09:21:44PM HE IS ALSO A FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY LIKE MYSELF.
09:21:47PM SO, AGAIN, I HOPE THAT YOU PASS THE ORDINANCE.
09:21:51PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, SIR, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
09:21:55PM >> RYAN RANADO, AUTHORIZED AGENT FOR THE APPLICANT.
09:21:59PM I HAVE A QUICK PRESENTATION TO GO THROUGH HOPEFULLY WILL NOT
09:22:05PM TAKE TOO LONG HERE.
09:22:06PM I CAN PULL IT UP.
09:22:07PM >> THERE YOU GO, SIR.
09:22:09PM >> JUST TO KIND OF RUN THROUGH THIS.
09:22:12PM PROJECT IS LOCATED ALONG NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE BETWEEN STATE
09:22:17PM ROAD 60 AND 275 NORTH OF CYPRESS STREET.
09:22:19PM LIKE ELLIE WAS SAYING, THE SITE USED TO HAVE TWO HOMES ON
09:22:23PM IT.
09:22:23PM ONE TO THE NORTH AND ONE TO THE SOUTH.
09:22:25PM THIS HOME TO THE SOUTH WAS IN DISARRAY, SO THEY FOR IT DOWN.
09:22:30PM AND ADDED A PARKING LOT.
09:22:33PM CURRENTLY, THE PROPERTY TO THE NORTH IN 2020 WAS REZONED TO A
09:22:39PM PLANNED DEVELOPMENT TO ALLOW FOR PROFESSIONAL OFFICE.
09:22:42PM WHERE THE CURRENT OFFICE IS.
09:22:43PM PROPERTY TO THE SOUTH RETAINS THAT RM-16 ZONING.
09:22:48PM WE ARE PROPOSE TO REZONE THE TWO PROPERTY TOGETHER INTO A
09:22:51PM NEW PLAN DEVELOPMENT TO ALLOW FOR PROFESSIONAL OFFICE.
09:22:54PM WE ARE COMPLYING WITH THE MAXIMUM F.A.R. OF 0.5 WHICH COMES
09:22:59PM FROM UNDERLYING FUTURE LAND USE MAXIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT OF
09:23:03PM 35 FEET.
09:23:03PM WE ARE WITHIN THE WEST TAMPA OVERLAY.
09:23:06PM PROJECT HAS BEEN REVIEWED BY CITY STAFF AND FOUND CONSISTENT
09:23:10PM WITH THE OVERLAY STANDARDS.
09:23:12PM WE HAVE A FEW WAIVERS AND THE MEAT OF WHAT I WANTED TO
09:23:15PM DISCUSS YOU WITH TODAY.
09:23:16PM THE FIRST WAIVER WE ARE LOOKING AT IS A BUFFER.
09:23:19PM I WOULDN'T CALL IT A REDUCTION.
09:23:21PM WE ARE STILL PROPOSING FOR A MINIMUM 15-FOOT-WIDE BUFFER, BUT
09:23:27PM WHAT WE ARE REQUESTING WITH THIS WAIVER TO ALLOW FOR THE --
09:23:30PM AN EXISTING HEDGE AND EXISTING TREES ALONG EAST PROPERTY
09:23:33PM LINE.
09:23:34PM WE ARE HOPING TO RETAIN THOSE AND CREATE A MORE NATURAL
09:23:37PM BUFFER OPPOSED TO COMING IN AND PUTTING A SOLID WALL UP
09:23:40PM THERE WHICH WOULD REQUIRE ESSENTIALLY ALL THAT VEGETATION
09:23:43PM WOULD HAVE TO BE REMOVED BECAUSE OF THE FOOTS WITH THE WALL.
09:23:46PM WE ARE HOPING TO JUST EXTEND THE SIX-FOOT-TALL HEDGE ALONG
09:23:50PM -- BASICALLY FILL IN THE PROPERTY LINE THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE
09:23:53PM HEDGE.
09:23:53PM THE SECOND WAIVER -- THING IS A LITTLE MORE NUANCED AND
09:23:59PM WANTED TO PUT IT IN TO DOT ALL YOUR Is AND CROSS ALL OF
09:24:05PM OUR Ts.
09:24:05PM OVERLAY DOESN'T SPECIFICALLY STATE THAT -- IT SPECIFICALLY
09:24:10PM STATES THAT PARKING NEEDS TO BE IN THE SIDE AND THE REAR BUT
09:24:13PM DOESN'T DISCUSS CORNER YARDS.
09:24:15PM WE SPECIFICALLY PUT THIS WAIVER IN JUST IN CASE TO ALLOW
09:24:19PM PARKING ON A CORNER YARD.
09:24:20PM TO THE NORTH -- TO THE PROPERTY LINE ALONG THE NORTH.
09:24:24PM IT IS ESSENTIALLY -- A CORNER YARD THAT FUNCTIONS AS A SIDE
09:24:29PM YARD.
09:24:32PM STAFF AGREED WITH US AND FOUND CONSISTENCY WITH THE WEST
09:24:36PM TAMPA OVERLAY.
09:24:37PM THE SECOND AND FOURTH WAIVERS ARE SETBACK REDUCTIONS.
09:24:41PM AGAIN THESE ARE A LITTLE MORE NUANCED.
09:24:43PM NOT SETBACKS FOR THE BUILDING.
09:24:45PM WHAT WE HAVE GOT GOING ON -- A LOT OF ELEVATION CHANGE ON
09:24:48PM THIS SITE.
09:24:48PM WE HAVE TO PUT STAIRS IN A VERY LARGE ADA RAMP TO GET
09:24:53PM PEDESTRIAN ACCESS FROM THE SIDEWALK ALONG NORTH ARMENIA UP
09:24:55PM TO OUR BUILDING.
09:24:56PM AND SO WHAT -- THE PROJECTION OF THE SETBACK IS NOT THE
09:25:02PM BLACK, BEFORE THE STEPS AND THE ADA RAMP.
09:25:05PM IN COORDINATION WITH STAFF, WE NEEDED TO PUT THOSE IN AS
09:25:09PM WAIVERS TO ALLOW THE RAMP AND THE STAIRS IN THE SETBACK.
09:25:12PM THEN FINALLY, AGAIN, ON THE PARKING REDUCTION WAIVER, WE ARE
09:25:16PM ASKING FOR A WAIVER TO GO FROM 16 SPACES TO 15 SPACES.
09:25:23PM PARKING IS BASE ON GROSS FLOOR AREA AND BEING WE HAVE AN
09:25:27PM ELEVATED BUILDING WITH PARKING BELOW, WHAT TRIPS US ONE
09:25:32PM SPACE OVER WHAT WE ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE.
09:25:33PM WE HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR THE GROSS FLOOR AREA, THE
09:25:36PM BUILDING WHICH INCLUDES TWO STAIRWELLS TO GET UP TO THE
09:25:39PM SECOND FLOOR.
09:25:39PM SO WHEN YOU ADD IN THE AIR I CAN'T HAVE THE STAIRWELLS,
09:25:43PM WHICH IS TECHNICALLY -- REALLY NOT A USABLE SPACE IN THE
09:25:46PM BUILDING ONCE YOU GET IN THE OFFICE AREA.
09:25:47PM THAT KICKS US ONE SPACE OVER WHAT WE ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE.
09:25:53PM WE HAVE REVIEW THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN SIMILAR TO THE
09:25:58PM PLANNING COMMISSION.
09:25:58PM WE AGREE THAT WE BELIEVE IT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
09:26:02PM LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
09:26:03PM WE BELIEVE IT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA, WITH
09:26:06PM THE DENTAL OFFICE TO SOUTH.
09:26:07PM LAW OFFICES TO THE NORTH AND WEST.
09:26:09PM STAFF REVIEWED THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN.
09:26:13PM WANT TO POINT OUT THAT YOU CAN SEE ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE
09:26:16PM PROPERTY, THAT IS WHERE WE HAVE THE ADA RAMP AND THE STAIRS
09:26:20PM THAT COME DOWN NECESSITATING THE TWO SETBACK REDUCTION
09:26:23PM WAIVERS.
09:26:23PM FINALLY AND STAFF SHOWED THE ELEVATIONS OF THE BUILDING.
09:26:27PM WE THINK IT BRINGS OUT SOME TRADITIONAL ARCHITECTURE THAT WE
09:26:32PM HOPE WILL GAIN YOUR APPROVAL.
09:26:33PM SO AT THIS POINT, THAT IS ALL I WANTED TO GO OVER.
09:26:36PM I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR APPROVAL.
09:26:41PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
09:26:43PM ANYONE IN THE PUBLIC WISHES TO SPEAK ON ITEM 16?
09:26:48PM I SEE NOBODY.

09:28:32PM HEIGHTS URBAN VILLAGE ALONG N. BOULEVARD AND AT THE CORNER
09:28:35PM OF NORTH BOULEVARD.
09:28:36PM WEST PLYMOUTH STREET TO THE NORTH.
09:28:39PM TO THE EAST OF THE SITE, WE HAVE PLYMOUTH PARK.
09:28:42PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE NEED TO TRANSITION OUR SCREENS TO THE
09:28:47PM PRESENTATION.

09:28:54PM GO AHEAD, MA'AM.
09:28:56PM >>JENNIFER MALONE: THANKS.
09:28:57PM N. BOULEVARD.
09:28:58PM WEST STREET.
09:29:00PM TO THE NORTH WE HAVE PLYMOUTH PARK.
09:29:04PM THERE IS A TECO SUBSTATION.
09:29:05PM RADIANT CHURCH.
09:29:07PM WOODLAWN CEMETERY.
09:29:09PM THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE.
09:29:13PM THIS PARCEL UP HERE WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT IN JUST A MOMENT
09:29:16PM WHEN I GO THROUGH OUR ANALYSIS.
09:29:18PM AGAIN, THE FUTURE LAND USE IS RESIDENTIAL-10.
09:29:21PM THERE IS SOME SUBURBAN MIXED USE -- THAT IS THIS PEACHY
09:29:26PM COLOR ALONG NORTH BEAUTIFUL.
09:29:28PM THE GREEN IS THE PLYMOUTH PARK, THAT IS RECOGNIZES RATIONAL
09:29:33PM OPEN SPACE.
09:29:33PM BLUE IS PUBLIC.
09:29:34PM THE PORTION OF THE CEMETERY THAT IS NOT DESIGNATED AS THE
09:29:39PM CEMETERY IS BLUE FOR PUBLIC USE.
09:29:41PM THERE IS THE RADIANT CHURCH WITHIN THE SAME BLOCK.
09:29:45PM THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU FOR RESIDENTIAL OFFICE.
09:29:48PM AS I SAID, THE FUTURE LAND USE IS RESIDENTIAL-10.
09:29:52PM AND RESIDENTIAL-10, IT IS IT CONSISTENT WITH LOCATIONAL
09:29:59PM CRITERIA.
09:29:59PM RESIDENTIAL-10 LOCATIONAL CRITERIA IS VERY STRICT BECAUSE
09:30:03PM THIS IS A SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED CATEGORY PRIMARILY FOR
09:30:07PM RESIDENTIAL USES.
09:30:07PM AND WE WANT TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT COMMERCIAL ENCROACHMENT AND
09:30:11PM ALSO RETAINING LAND FOR RESIDENTIAL USES AS WELL.
09:30:14PM THE CRITERIA STATES THAT 50% OF BLOCK HAS TO BE ZONED
09:30:21PM COMMERCIAL.
09:30:22PM AND -- FOR THIS COUPLE OF DIFFERENT OFFICE USES WITHIN THE
09:30:31PM BLOCK WHICH IS WEST BRADDOCK TO WEST PLYMOUTH.
09:30:34PM THIS PARCEL IS THE PARTIAL ZONED FOR COMMERCIAL USES.
09:30:38PM AND I DON'T WANT TO GET TOO MUCH INTO ZONING.
09:30:41PM I AM SURE CITY STAFF WILL DO THIS.
09:30:43PM I WANT TO BE CLEAR THAT THE LANGUAGE SAYS 50% OR MORE OF THE
09:30:47PM BLOCK FACE -- IT HAS TO BE IN THE PROPOSED -- THE PROPOSED
09:30:56PM HAS TO BE ZONED FOR COMMERCIAL USES.
09:30:58PM SO THAT IS WHAT WE ARE -- THAT IS THE CRITERIA WE ARE
09:31:05PM REVIEWING THIS UNDER.
09:31:05PM THAT IS WHY THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND THIS INSTINCT.
09:31:08PM 50% HAS TO BE ZONED FOR COMMERCIAL USES.
09:31:11PM OF COURSE, IT IS STILL BEFORE YOU AND ULTIMATELY THE

09:34:18PM LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
09:34:19PM I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
09:34:21PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS?
09:34:22PM NOPE.
09:34:22PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
09:34:23PM APPLICANT, COME ON UP.
09:34:25PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
09:34:28PM >> GOOD EVENING, ISABELLE ALBERT FOR THE RECORD.
09:34:42PM I AM CERTIFIED PLANNER AND REPRESENTING THE APPLICANT WHO IS
09:34:45PM ALSO THE PROPERTY OWNER.
09:34:47PM FOR THIS SITE, MR. ANDREW SCARPENETO.
09:34:55PM AS YOU HEARD TONIGHT, THE SITE IS LOCATED AT 109 N. BOULEVARD
09:35:00PM ON THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF BRADDOCK.
09:35:04PM AND THIS IS TO SHOW YOU WHERE IT IS IN RELATIONSHIP WITH N.
09:35:07PM BOULEVARD HOW IT IS ON THE SOUTH SIDE BUT CLOSER TO
09:35:10PM COLUMBUS.
09:35:15PM CURRENT FUTURE LAND USE IS RESIDENTIAL-10 AND ZONING IS
09:35:19PM RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY 50.
09:35:20PM AND I THINK I NEED TO SHOW A BETTER PICTURE OF THE AREA AS
09:35:26PM YOU JUST HEARD RIGHT NOW OR EARLIER.
09:35:28PM THIS IS -- YOU WILL NOTICE ALONG N. BOULEVARD -- THIS IS THE
09:35:32PM N. BOULEVARD HERE.
09:35:33PM USES ARE ACTUALLY PREDOMINANTLY NOT AS RESIDENTIAL.
09:35:38PM YOU HAVE THE RESIDENTIAL OFFICE.
09:35:39PM YOU HAVE THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT.
09:35:41PM BUT RESIDENTIAL OFFICE IS FOR RESIDENTS THAT ARE CONVERTED
09:35:46PM TO OFFICE.
09:35:46PM AND WHO THAT, THAT IS WHERE YOU WILL FIND THE RESIDENTIAL
09:35:49PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
09:35:49PM THIS IS TYPICALLY WHEN YOU SEE THESE AREAS MORPHING INTO
09:35:56PM THAT KIND.
09:35:56PM SO A LITTLE BIT MORE HERE.
09:35:58PM THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE.
09:36:00PM YOU SAW THE PICTURES OF THE TWO OFFICES ACROSS THE STREET.
09:36:03PM THIS IS A FIRE STATION.
09:36:05PM AND TO THE NORTH SIDE IS A MEDICAL AND OFFICE BUILDING.
09:36:11PM AND FURTHER TO THE NORTH ARE THE OFFICE USE.
09:36:15PM THE APPLICANT, HE LIVES IN THE AREA.
09:36:23PM AND HE HAS HIS OWN BUSINESS.
09:36:24PM AND HE IS LOOKING FOR AN OFFICE.
09:36:26PM SO WHEN HE SAW THIS HOME THAT WAS AVAILABLE, AND HE SAW WHAT
09:36:31PM WAS GOING ON NORTH AND SOUTH.
09:36:32PM HE SAID THIS WILL BE GREAT FOR ME FOR MY OWN PERSONAL USE TO
09:36:36PM HAVE MY OFFICE AS A RESIDENTIAL OFFICE.
09:36:38PM AND THIS IS WHY TODAY WE ARE PROVIDING REQUEST FOR THIS.
09:36:42PM RESIDENTIAL OFFICE IS FOR PREDOMINANTLY RESIDENTIAL AND
09:36:46PM OFFICE.
09:36:46PM THOSE ARE THE TWO USES.
09:36:48PM THIS IS WHY YOU HAVE BOTH OF THOSE NAMES IN THE ZONING
09:36:50PM DISTRICT.
09:36:51PM IT WAS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO ALLOW NONRESIDENTIAL AND
09:36:55PM RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS TO CREATE A BALANCE.
09:36:58PM AND IT IS DUE BECAUSE OF NATURE OF THE URBAN CONDITIONS, AND
09:37:01PM THIS IN CASE, N. BOULEVARD IS AN ARTERIAL.
09:37:04PM YOU JUST HEARD EARLIER.
09:37:06PM WE SAID ARTERIAL.
09:37:08PM ONE OF THE MOST INTENSE CLASSIFICATIONS.
09:37:11PM AS WELL AS IT ENCOURAGES THE REHAB OF EXISTING STRUCTURE,
09:37:15PM WHICH IS WHAT THE APPLICANT WANTS TO DO.
09:37:18PM HE WANTS TO CONVERT THIS HOUSE TO HIS OWN PERSONAL OFFICE.
09:37:21PM NOW TO ALLOW AS YOU HEARD AN OFFICE COMMERCIAL
09:37:30PM RESIDENTIAL RO INTO THE RESIDENTIAL-10, YOU HAVE TO MEET THE
09:37:33PM COMMERCIAL LOCATION CRITERIA.
09:37:35PM AND PLANNING COMMISSION, UNFORTUNATELY, IS BOUND BY THE
09:37:39PM EXACT WORDING.
09:37:39PM AND SHE IS CORRECT -- JENNIFER IS CORRECT, FOR ZONING.
09:37:43PM BUT WE HAVE HERE THE RO, WHICH IS CONSIDERED COMMERCIAL
09:37:49PM ZONING THAT SHE WAS REFERENCING TOO.
09:37:51PM THAT WAS 100 FEET.
09:37:53PM WHOLE BLOCK IS 5,000 FEET.
09:37:59PM THE DENTAL OFFICE, 50 FEET YOU MEET THE MINIMUM 50%.
09:38:03PM BUT STATED THEY ARE BOUND BY THE WORDING OF THE
09:38:06PM COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
09:38:07PM IF YOU LOOK AT THE SITE, IT IS NOT ZONED RO OR PD, BUT IN
09:38:18PM EXISTENCE SINCE 1996.
09:38:20PM 56 YEARS AGO.
09:38:21PM IT HAVEN'T DEVELOPED.
09:38:22PM IT HAVEN'T CHANGED SENSE THEN.
09:38:24PM AND I THINK THAT DESERVES RECOGNITION OF BEING A ESTABLISHED
09:38:28PM OFFICE USE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
09:38:29PM AND IT IS NOT GOING TO GO ANYWHERE BECAUSE IT IS NOT ZONED
09:38:33PM CORRECTLY.
09:38:34PM IT IS AN ESTABLISHED USE.
09:38:35PM THEREFORE, I THINK -- I THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED
09:38:39PM TOWARD THAT 50% OF THE -- OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
09:38:42PM I DON'T SEE ANYONE HERE EXCEPT THIS ONE GENTLEMAN.
09:38:48PM SO -- BUT, AGAIN, WE -- ALL WE WANT TO DO IS CONVERT THIS TO
09:38:55PM A RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.
09:38:56PM WE HAVE HERE JUST DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS TO SHOW YOU THAT WE
09:39:03PM WILL BE ABLE TO MEET THOSE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.
09:39:05PM FOR THE RECORD, THE STAFF FINDINGS -- BUT THERE IS ALSO
09:39:13PM POLICIES.
09:39:14PM RIGHT NOW IN YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THAT DOES SUPPORT THIS.
09:39:17PM YOU LOOK AT POLICY 12.2.
09:39:19PM RESPECTING THE SCALE.
09:39:20PM UNIQUE CHARACTER OF AREA.
09:39:23PM ACCEPTS OF COMMUNITY IS WHAT THIS IS.
09:39:25PM POLICIES 8.15, 8.15.2 TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ZONING IS
09:39:31PM CONFORMING WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WHICH IT IS.
09:39:34PM WHEN YOU LOOK AT THEIR MATRIX.
09:39:36PM IT DOES MEET, 9.3.1 ADDRESS COMPATIBILITY WITH THE RO
09:39:42PM CLASSIFICATION IN THE CODE HAS URBAN DESIGN CRITERIA.
09:39:47PM A CRITERIA TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE COMPLYING AND COMPATIBLE
09:39:53PM WITH THE AREA.
09:39:54PM WITH THE INFRASTRUCTURE WE ARE USING WITH PUBLIC FACILITIES
09:39:57PM AND ONLY FACILITIES WILL BE REQUIRED.
09:39:58PM OVERALL YOU SAW THE AREA, WHETHER IS A RESIDENTIAL OR OFFICE
09:40:03PM USE.
09:40:04PM HAVING THIS USE THERE IS EXTREMELY COMPATIBLE ESPECIALLY FOR
09:40:08PM THE LOCATION WHERE IT IS.
09:40:09PM AND I'M HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
09:40:12PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS?
09:40:14PM ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM 17?
09:40:19PM >> YES.
09:40:19PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COME ON UP, SIR.
09:40:21PM AND PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
09:40:22PM >> GOOD EVENING, MY NAME IS DAVID WRIGHT.
09:40:34PM I AM AN ATTORNEY HERE IN TAMPA.
09:40:36PM AND I ALSO HAPPEN TO BE THE NEIGHBOR WHO IS BEHIND AND
09:40:41PM SLIGHTLY TO THE RIGHT OF THIS HOUSE.
09:40:42PM SO I WOULD LIKE TO BUILD ON THE LOCATIONAL CRITERIA, BECAUSE
09:40:49PM I THINK IT IS VERY IMPORTANT.
09:40:50PM LAW, ESPECIALLY IN FLORIDA, WE FOLLOW THE TEXTURAL APPROACH.
09:40:57PM YOU READ THE LANGUAGE IN THE STATUTE OR CODE IN THIS
09:41:01PM INSTANCE.
09:41:01PM HERE FOR R-10, IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT AN RO IS PROHIBITED
09:41:09PM UNLESS SEEKING COMMERCIAL ZONING REPRESENTS 50% OR MORE OF A
09:41:14PM GIVEN BLOCK SPACE.
09:41:15PM WE LOOKED A LITTLE BIT AT WHAT THE EXISTING COMMERCIAL
09:41:20PM ZONING IS.
09:41:21PM AND I -- I PUT THIS UP FOR A DIFFERENT VIEW.
09:41:26PM SO YOU SEE.
09:41:33PM I AM THIS HOUSE RIGHT HERE.
09:41:35PM THE HOUSE I AM POINTING TO NOW IS THE ONE THEY WANT TO
09:41:38PM CHANGE INTO RESIDENTIAL OFFICE SPACE.
09:41:40PM I AM ABUTTING THE PROPERTY.
09:41:42PM WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT THE ZONING IS, IF YOU GO BASED OFF OF
09:41:49PM ACTUAL ZONING, WHICH WOULD BE CONSISTENT WITH THE CODE, YOU
09:41:55PM ARE AT 100 FEET OVER TOTAL OF 500 FEET PER TOTAL PERCENTAGE
09:41:59PM OF 20%.
09:42:00PM SO UNDER THE CODE, THIS APPLICATION IS NOT EVEN ELIGIBLE FOR
09:42:05PM CONSIDERATION BECAUSE BASED OFF OF OUR RENT ZONING, 20% RO,
09:42:13PM 80% RESIDENTIAL.
09:42:15PM IF YOU GO OFF OF USAGE, YES, THERE IS THIS OFFICE RIGHT HERE
09:42:19PM THAT IS A DENTIST OFFICE, BUT THIS LOT OVER HERE, WHILE
09:42:26PM ZONED RO IS ACTUALLY USED AS SOMEONE'S HOUSE.
09:42:29PM I WALK BY IT EVERY DAY WHEN I WALK MY DOG.
09:42:32PM SO WHEN YOU BASICALLY FLIP THE NUMBERS, BECOMES 150 FEET
09:42:35PM OVER 500, 30%.
09:42:39PM YOU ARE STILL NOT AT YOUR 50.
09:42:41PM THAT FACE N. BOULEVARD.
09:42:45PM IT IS ONE OVER SIX.
09:42:47PM YOU ARE GETTING LESS.
09:42:48PM YOU ARE AT 16.667%, RIGHT.
09:42:52PM SO WE ARE EVEN FURTHER AWAY FROM 50%.
09:42:56PM SO REGARDLESS OF HOW YOU CUT IT, YOU ARE NOT AT YOUR 50%.
09:43:01PM THIS APPLICATION SHOULDN'T EVEN BE CONSIDERED.
09:43:04PM I ALSO WANT TO TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, THERE IS A MENTION OF
09:43:10PM THE LAND USE POLICIES.
09:43:12PM BUT LAND USE POLICY 9.5.5 SAYS TO LIMIT THE NUMBER AND TYPES
09:43:20PM OF NONRESIDENTIAL USES PERMITTED IN A SINGLE-FAMILY
09:43:23PM RESIDENTIAL AREAS, TO PROTECT THOSE AREAS FROM THE NEGATIVE
09:43:26PM IMPACTS OF INCOMPATIBLE USES.
09:43:28PM THAT IS WHAT THE POLICY SAYS.
09:43:30PM THIS IS A RESIDENTIAL AREA.
09:43:32PM I AM ONE OF RESIDENTS.
09:43:33PM I DO NOT WANT A RESIDENTIAL OFFICE AND FURTHER
09:43:36PM COMMERCIALIZATION OF THIS AREA.
09:43:37PM SO I ASK THAT YOU DENY IT.
09:43:39PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
09:43:42PM ANYONE ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK?
09:43:46PM MA'AM, DO YOU HAVE REBUTTAL?
09:43:53PM >> THANK YOU.
09:43:53PM AGAIN FOR THE RECORD, SAYS BELLA ALBERT REPRESENTING THE
09:43:59PM APPLICANT.
09:43:59PM I WANT TO READ THE 9.5.5.
09:44:01PM THESE ARE FOR SINGLE-FAMILY AREAS, SPECIFICALLY FOR AREAS.
09:44:08PM THIS AREA IS ACTUALLY IN THE AREA THAT CURRENTLY HAS NOT
09:44:12PM ONLY SINGLE-FAMILY, BUT N. BOULEVARD WHICH IS AN ARTERIAL
09:44:17PM YOU HAVE DIFFERENT USES ALONG THE CORRIDOR.
09:44:20PM TO ADDRESS THE INCOMPATIBILITY, THIS IS WHY IN OUR CODE,
09:44:24PM THEY HAVE ADDITIONAL DESIGN CRITERIA TO ADDRESS THAT.
09:44:28PM I THINK THAT IS REALLY THE MAIN THING.
09:44:32PM I UNDERSTAND, YOU KNOW, THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN LANGUAGE THAT
09:44:37PM HAS ONE WORD ZONING.
09:44:39PM BUT THE REALITY IS, THAT USE THAT HAS BEEN THERE FOR A WE
09:44:44PM HAVE VERY LONG TIME WAS THE LEGAL CONFORMING USE, LEGAL
09:44:49PM NONCONFORMING.
09:44:49PM I DON'T KNOW.
09:44:50PM I UNFORTUNATELY GOT THIS REPORT YESTERDAY.
09:44:52PM SO SCRAMBLING TO SEE, YOU KNOW THE AREA.
09:44:57PM AND REALLY, YOU KNOW, LOOKING AT -- AT THE -- WHAT'S
09:45:03PM AROUND THERE.
09:45:04PM LOOKING AT THE RO REGULATIONS AND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, I
09:45:11PM BELIEVE THAT THIS IS NOT INCONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE
09:45:13PM PLAN.
09:45:14PM IT IS ABSOLUTELY CONSISTENT WITH ALL THE DIFFERENT POLICIES
09:45:17PM THAT I STATED.
09:45:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.

09:45:47PM THE ADDRESSES ARE WRONG IN THE SECOND PART OF THE ORDINANCE.
09:45:51PM NOT THE SAME ADDRESS.

09:57:58PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YOU WANT A WRITTEN -- A WRITTEN OR IN
09:58:02PM PERSON.
09:58:02PM >>BILL CARLSON: I WOULD RATHER IN PERSON.
09:58:05PM IT SHOULD BE SHORT.

09:58:11PM IN-PERSON STAFF REPORT.
09:58:12PM CAN HE DO WRITTEN?
09:58:20PM DO WRITTEN.
09:58:21PM SAME THING.
09:58:22PM WE HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
09:58:24PM A SECOND FROM COUNCILWOMAN HENDERSON.
09:58:25PM ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
09:58:26PM ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?
09:58:28PM >>BILL CARLSON: SECOND ONE IS, THERE ARE A LOT OF REASONS
09:58:33PM WHY NEIGHBORHOODS FLOODED, BUT IN SOME NEIGHBORHOODS, IT IS
09:58:38PM OBVIOUS THAT MAINTENANCE WAS NEEDED.
09:58:41PM ONE NEIGHBORHOOD I LOOKED AT, IT LOOKED LIKE MAINTENANCE
09:58:45PM HADN'T BEEN DONE IN 20 YEARS.
09:58:47PM I WOULD JUST LIKE -- YOU GUYS CAN HELP ME PICK A DATE.
09:58:50PM IT SHOULD BE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE I DON'T THINK IF
09:58:54PM FEMA'S DEADLINE IS 90 DAYS WHAT WE CAN GET REIMBURSED FOR.
09:58:59PM MAKE A MOTION TO HAVE CITY STAFF REPORT ON WHATEVER DATE FOR
09:59:03PM UPDATE ON STORMWATER DRAIN MAINTENANCE IN THE CITY
09:59:06PM PARTICULARLY AREAS THAT FLOODED AND WHETHER WE NEEDED AN
09:59:09PM EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE BUDGET.
09:59:11PM PART OF THIS IS TO SEE DO WE NEED AN EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE
09:59:14PM BUDGET TO TRY TO MOVE THIS FORWARD FASTER.
09:59:19PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WHAT DAY ARE YOU LOOKING AT?
09:59:22PM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
09:59:23PM >>LYNN HURTAK: DIDN'T SOMEONE ALREADY MAKE THIS MOTION?
09:59:29PM >>LUIS VIERA: I DID SOMETHING SIMILAR.
09:59:30PM IT WAS FOR HOUSING THROUGH FEMA, BUT NOT NECESSARILY FOR
09:59:34PM MAINTENANCE, I THINK.
09:59:35PM >>BILL CARLSON: I MADE A MOTION THAT IS COMING BACK IN
09:59:38PM JANUARY AND FEBRUARY TO UPDATE THE STORMWATER REPORT.
09:59:41PM THIS IS SON MAINTENANCE.
09:59:42PM AND IN PARTICULAR, AN UPDATE ON MAINTENANCE.
09:59:46PM BUT THE QUESTION -- I KNOW THAT THE ONE AREA THAT HAD BEEN
09:59:49PM OVERLOOKED FOR 20 YEARS.
09:59:52PM THEY WERE THERE YESTERDAY.
09:59:53PM I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS 20 YEARS, BUT LOOKED LIKE THAT.
09:59:56PM IT LOOKED LIKE -- THE WAY I DESCRIBED IT, IF YOU WENT TO THE
10:00:02PM PHILIPPINES AND FOUND A PILLBOX WITH JUNGLE ALL OVER IT,
10:00:06PM THAT IS WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE.
10:00:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: DECEMBER 19.
10:00:09PM WE ALREADY HAVE ONE ITEM THAT SAYS STAFF'S REPORT FOR
10:00:13PM FINDING SHORT-TERM SOLUTIONS IMMEDIATELY PREVENT RAINFALL
10:00:17PM FLOODING IN AREAS OCCURRED DURING THE RECENT STORMS.
10:00:19PM TIE IT THAT THAT.
10:00:21PM >>LYNN HURTAK: TIE IS TO THE JANUARY 9 ONE.
10:00:25PM >>BILL CARLSON: MY ONLY CONCERN IS WE ARE NEARING THE 90
10:00:29PM DAYS.
10:00:29PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I WOULD ASK IF THAT MATTERS.
10:00:31PM I THINK THE FEMA STUFF IS CLEANING -- DEBRIS PICK-UP.
10:00:35PM I DON'T THINK IT IS -- I DON'T THINK WE CAN DO PREEMPTIVE
10:00:39PM MAINTENANCE UNDER THAT.
10:00:40PM >>LUIS VIERA: PERHAPS TO GET PAST THE RULES.
10:00:44PM AMEND THE ONE THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE THERE.
10:00:46PM THE SAME.
10:00:51PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: DECEMBER 19.
10:00:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK: IF THAT IS ENOUGH TIME.
10:00:55PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: A MOTION AND A SECOND.
10:00:56PM THIS WOULD SHALL --
10:00:58PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: I WANT THE CLERK KNOW WHICH YOU ARE
10:01:01PM REFERENCING.
10:01:02PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT.
10:01:03PM DECEMBER 19, COUNCILMAN CARLSON IS GOING TO AMEND THAT
10:01:07PM MOTION, WHICH IS ON THE -- ON THE STAFF REPORT OF POSSIBLY
10:01:17PM FINDING SHORT-TERM SOLUTIONS THAT WILL PREVENT RAINFALL AND
10:01:22PM FLOODING IN THE AREA OF THE RECENT STORMS AND ADD TO THAT
10:01:26PM THE MAINTENANCE OF STORMWATER SYSTEM AND IF WE NEED TO SEEK
10:01:29PM OUT ADDITIONAL FUND.
10:01:31PM >> YEAH, I HAVE GOT IT.
10:01:34PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: EXISTING MOTION FOR THE IN-PERSON STAFF
10:01:37PM REPORT ON DECEMBER 19.
10:01:38PM AND HE IS GOING TO AMEND THAT AND ADD THAT TO IT.
10:01:41PM A MOTION AN A SECOND.
10:01:43PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SECOND.
10:01:43PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.
10:01:46PM ANYTHING ELSE?
10:01:48PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: MOTION TO RECEIVE AND FILE.
10:01:50PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: SORRY ABOUT THIS.
10:01:52PM WELL, I -- I AM WILLING TO GO FIRST.

10:02:16PM NUMBER TWO ON TONIGHT'S AGENDA.
10:02:18PM AND A DISCUSSION WAS RAISED INTERNALLY THAT MAYBE CITY
10:02:24PM COUNCIL WOULD LIKE TO LIMIT THE NUMBER OF CASE FOR MARCH 13
10:02:27PM MEETING TO SHORTEN THE AMOUNT, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW PRESENTLY
10:02:32PM YOU ARE ALLOWED TEN CASES PLUS THREE CONTINUANCES.
10:02:36PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: MOTION TO CAP THAT DATE AT FIVE.
10:02:40PM >>LYNN HURTAK: SECOND.
