WITH THE PANDEMIC TAKING CENTER STAGE DURING HIS TENURE

GUIDO LEADERSHIP WAS ON DISPLAY FROM CITY COUNCIL'S MOVE TO

THE CONVENTION CENTER AND BACK TO OLD CITY HALL WITH A

MODIFIED PLAN, THIS YEAR WAS ANYTHING BUT NORMAL.

CHAIRMAN GUIDO MANISCALCO WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL OF

DUTY CONTINUALLY DISPLAYING HIS CALM DEMEANOR DURING THESE

VERY STRESSFUL TIMES.

THROUGHOUT THE YEAR WHEN UNPRECEDENTED POLICIES AND

PROCEDURES HAD TO BE IMPLEMENTED, MOST AT THE VERY LAST

MINUTE, GUIDO ALWAYS REMAINED COMPOSED AND BROUGHT HIS WIT

IT'S WITH GRATITUDE AND APPRECIATION THAT WE MEMBERS OF

I HOPE IT'S EASIER.

YOU KNOW, WE HAD A LOT OF COMPLICATIONS LAST YEAR WITH

EVERYTHING.

BUT I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST.

I KNOW YOU SERVE YOUR COMMUNITY WELL.

BUT I DO WANT TO SAY THAT IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE SERVING

CHAIRMAN MANISCALCO DURING THIS TIME AND ALSO ALL OF YOU

COUNCILMEN AS WELL.

I LEARNED A LOT THIS YEAR, AND I APPRECIATE ALL THE SUPPORT

THAT WAS GIVEN TO OUR OFFICE OVER THIS TIME.

SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS.

10:51:59 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR THE

WORK BETWEEN SECOND AND THIRD FLOOR.

THANK GOD YOU DIDN'T USE THE ELEVATOR.

YOU WOULD HAVE WORN IT OUT.

BUT YOU DID A MARVELOUS JOB, AND JUST THE DIFFERENT AREAS

THAT WERE TOTALLY NEW TO ALL OF US.

WE THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

10:52:05 >>LUIS VIERA:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. CHAIR.

LISA, CONGRATULATIONS.

YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK ABOUT YOU.

I THINK YOU ARE A WONDERFUL LADY, AND JUST A REALLY GOD

PERSON WITH A REALLY SWEETHEART, OBVIOUSLY.




AND FOR FORMER CHAIRMAN MANISCALCO, OBVIOUSLY A FINE

GENTLEMAN WITH A VERY KIND HEART.

YOU KNOW THAT I THINK HERE, CHARLIE AND I HAVE BEEN CHAIR,

OBVIOUSLY GUDES AND OTHERS, WILL BE CHAIRING IN THE FUTURE,

I'M SURE.

IT'S NOT AN EASY JOB ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE RUNNING A

MEETING AND EVERYBODY IS LOOKING AT YOU, AND YOU NEED TO

SOMETIMES HAVE THOSE UNCOMFORTABLE MOMENTS THAT MAYBE YOU

SHOULDN'T HAVE AND THE HEAT IS TOTALLY ON YOU, AND YOU HAVE

DONE THAT, MR. CHAIRMAN, SO OBVIOUSLY WE ABSOLUTE YOU FOR

THAT.

AND SOMETIMES FOR GUYS ACTUALLY LIKE YOU AND ME, BEING CHAIR

IS A LITTLE BIT HARD.

NOW WHY?

SOMETIMES THAT CAN BE REALLY HARD BUT YOU HAVE DONE A GREAT

JOB, AND I WON IT ON PRINCIPAL TO UNANIMOUS NIGHT YOU AND I

WANT YOU TO BE CHAIR BECAUSE I THINK YOU DO A GOOD JOB.

YOU HAVE BEEN HERE AND YOU FULFILLED THE ROLE WELL SO THANK

YOU FOR THAT.

10:52:29 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. CHAIR.

FIRST OF ALL, I WANT TO TAKE A PICTURE OF BOTH OF YOU ALL

WITH YOUR COMMENDATIONS WITH ALL THESE SNEEZE GUARDS AROUND

HERE SO WE CAN DO THAT A LITTLE LATER OBJECT.




SECOND OF ALL, GUIDO, I AM GOING TO CALL YOU GUIDO, NOT MR.

CHAIR.

WHEN YOU FIRST TOOK ON THIS ROLE, I LOOKED AT YOU AND I

SAID, ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?

AND YOU SAID THE BEST WORDS EVER, THIS IS GOING TO BE

HISTORY.

WE ARE GOING TO BE MAKING HISTORY IN THE PREDICAMENT WE ARE

IN.

I THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO MAKE HISTORY WITH YOU.

LISA, YOU HAVE DONE THE BEST JOB IN MAKING HISTORY.

I THANK YOU BOTH.

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

10:52:45 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. CARLSON.

10:52:46 >>BILL CARLSON:
YES, PLEASE.

THANK YOU, GUIDO, FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP OVER THE LAST YEAR

DURING THESE VERY DIFFICULT TIMES, AND FOR ALWAYS BEING FAIR

AND MAKING SURE THE PUBLIC WAS LISTENED TO.

I COULD GO ON AND ON.

BUT LISA, LEGISLATIVE AIDES ARE REALLY STRESSED OUT IN THIS

ROLE, AND I APPRECIATE ALL OF THEM.

BUT YOU REALLY STEPPED UP DURING TWO DIFFICULT TIMES.

YOU KNOW, WE HAD THE COVID SITUATION WHICH YOU RAN UP AND

DOWNSTAIRS, YOU HAD TO SET UP ALL THE FACILITIES AT THE

CONVENTION CENTER, ALSO WITH THE EVENTS OF LAST SUMMER WE




HAD HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO WANTED THEIR OPINIONS TO BE

EXPRESSED, AND ALSO WE HAVE THAT HERE, AND I THINK YOU DID A

GREAT JOB WORKING WITH THE COVID AND ALSO MAKING SURE PEOPLE

WERE ABLE TO SPEAK.

SO THANK YOU FOR GIVING THE PUBLIC THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK.

I KNOW THIS ROLE IS NEW IN YOUR CAREER AND YOU HAVE DONE AN

OUTSTANDING JOB.

THANK YOU.

10:53:06 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. SHELBY, WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY A FEW

WORDS, SIR?

I NOW WORK CLOSELY WITH THE CHAIR AND LEGISLATIVE AIDE ALL

THE TIME.

SO I KNOW YOU MIGHT WANT TO SAY SOMETHING SO I WILL GIVE YOU

THAT OPPORTUNITY.

10:53:11 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

THERE'S REALLY NOTHING MORE I CAN ADD.

IT'S JUST BEEN A TREMENDOUS HONOR AND PRIVILEGE TO SERVE

CHAIRMAN MANISCALCO AND EVERYBODY HAS SPOKEN QUITE

ELOQUENTLY AS TO THE CHALLENGES THAT HAVE BEEN FACED BE, AND

QUITE FRANKLY, I THINK THAT THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY OF TAMPA

REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS ORGANIZATION, INCLUDING ALL THE

PEOPLE THAT LISA WORKED WITH IN THE ADMINISTRATION, TOGETHER

COOPERATIVELY, AS A TEAM TO MAKE EVERYTHING HAPPEN.

A LOT OF PEOPLE BEHIND THE SCENE DID A LOT OF WORK IN

UNPRECEDENTED TIMES TO BE ABLE TO MAKE GOVERNMENT WORK FOR




THEM ON THEIR BEHALF.

SO I JUST WANTED TO SAY VERY MUCH ALWAYS, IT IS AN HONOR AND

A PRIVILEGE TO SERVE THE CITY COUNCIL, AND PARTICULARLY THE

CHAIR, AND PARTICULARLY THIS YEAR.

AGAIN, MY SINCERE THANKS TO LISA EDWARD.

SHE DID A PHENOMENAL JOB, AND SHE DESERVES ALL THE

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CREDIT.

SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH, COUNCIL.

10:53:29 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MIRANDA.

10:53:30 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
GUIDO, MS. EDWARDS, I AM SURE YOU ARE

GOING TO -- YOUR AIDE HAS DONE A GREAT JOB LIKE YOU HAVE, SO

I AM GOING TO DO IT IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE AND THEN YOU CAN DO

IT IN ITALIAN AND WE'LL HAVE IN THE THREE LANGUAGES.

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

10:53:35 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL THAT WAS BUT --

10:53:37 >> I WILL TRANSLATE IT REAL QUICK.

GUIDO, YOU ARE MY FAVORITE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER BESIDES

MYSELF, AND BESIDES CHARLIE MIRANDA, GUIDO MANISCALCO.

10:53:39 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
IS THAT WHAT I SAID?

10:53:40 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
NO.

I WILL TRANSLATE FOR YOU LATER.

10:53:41 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
LISA, ALWAYS SMILING.

ALWAYS SMILING.

TRYING TO MAKE EVERYBODY HAPPY.

GUIDO, YOU HAVE HAD A HELL OF A YEAR, KEPT US TOGETHER.




WE ARE MOST APPRECIATIVE WITH WHAT YOU HAVE DONE.

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH.

10:53:46 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

[ APPLAUSE ]

WE WILL GO WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA.

I KNOW WE HAVE A WALK-ON FOR OUR YOUTH.

THEN WE HAVE A CONTINUATION, NUMBER , MR. CARLSON IS

REQUESTING.

10:53:51 >>BILL CARLSON:
I THINK WE ALSO SHOULD RECEIVE AND FILE

NUMBER 76.

10:53:52 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
NUMBER 76.

10:53:53 >>BILL CARLSON:
IN THE CONSENT AGENDA, THERE ARE TWO ISSUES

THAT HAD TO DO WITH QRGTI, THAT'S THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

AND INCENTIVE PROGRAM BY THE STATE.

INSTEAD OF PULLING THEM, I ASKED ROB ROSNER IF COULD YOU

QUICKLY MAKE A FEW STATEMENTS BEFORE WE GO TO CONSENT AGENDA

SO HE CAN JUST EXPLAIN TO THE PUBLIC WHAT WE ARE APPROVING.

10:54:00 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WHICH ITEM WAS THAT, SIR?

10:54:01 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WHY DON'T WE HONOR THEM -- EXCUSE ME.

10:54:02 >> WE CAN DO THAT.

10:54:02 >>BILL CARLSON:
IT'S 31 AND 32.

10:54:03 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
AND I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT THE

CONTINUANCE AS FAR AS ROUTINE, BUT THIS HAS BEEN HANGING ON




FOR AT LEAST TWO OR THREE WEEKS NOW,

AND WE KICK THE CAN SO MUCH AND IT MAKES NO NOISE ANYMORE.

SO I WOULD LIKE TO BRING IT TO AN END SOMEHOW.

MAYBE WE CAN HAVE THE ADMINISTRATION OR FIND OUT WHAT THEY

ARE DOING REGARDING THIS, OR MAYBE NOT.

BUT I WOULD LIKE TO FIND SOME CLOSURE TO THIS THING.

THE PUBLIC ON BOTH SIDES ARE CALLING US DAILY, AND ALL OF US

HAVE RECEIVED THOSE CALLS, AND I HAVE NOT MET WITH EITHER

ONE, AND I JUST WANT TO SOMEHOW FINALIZE THIS.

10:54:17 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.

THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON TOO LONG.

WE NEED TO MAKE A DECISION ON THIS.

NUMBER 8.

10:54:20 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. SHELBY, SINCE WE HAVE DISCUSSION TO BE

HAD ON NUMBER 8, WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO WHEN WE GET TO 8,

IF THAT'S THE CASE, MAKE A MOTION, WE ARE GOING TO END THIS,

OR CONTINUE THIS, OR CONTINUE DISCUSSION.

10:54:25 >>BILL CARLSON:
COULD I MAKE A QUICK COMMENT?

TWO NEW PIECES OF INFORMATION POPPED UP THIS WEEK.

ONE IS THAT ALTHOUGH APPARENTLY ONE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE

PEOPLE SAID THIS A COUPLE WEEKS AGO, THE MAYOR SAID THIS

WEEK, OR COMMENTS CERTAINLY THIS WEEK, THE MAYOR IS AGAINST

IT, AND I LEARNED YESTERDAY THAT THE MAYOR HAS A MEETING

WITH STAFF AND THE SOUTH OF GANDY NEIGHBORHOOD LEADERS ON

FRIDAY, THAT I LEARNED ABOUT FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD LEADERS.




SO I PRESUME THAT THAT IS TO TRY TO FIND A SOLUTION.

WHAT THE SOUTH OF GANDY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO DO IS

FIND A SOLUTION FOR SOUTH OF GANDY, NOT CITY-WIDE.

ALTHOUGH I THINK THEY WOULD ASK US TO VOTE FOR THIS, THE

PROBLEM IS THAT THEY DID NOT ASK US FOR SOMETHING THAT'S NOT

SOUTH OF GANDY, AND EVERY EXPERT I TALK TO SAID THERE ARE

SOLUTIONS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN DISCUSSED YET.

AND SINCE THE MAYOR IS LEADING WITH THE SOUTH OF GANDY

LEADERS ON FRIDAY ANYWAY, I WAS NOT INVITED TO THAT MEETING,

BY THE WAY, BY ANYBODY, BUT THERE IS A MEETING ON FRIDAY,

AND I PRESUME THAT THEY WILL BE COMING UP WITH A SOLUTION

THAT THEY WILL BE PRESENTING TO US, SO WHY WOULD WE APPROVE

A SOLUTION WHEN THEY ARE WORKING ON A BETTER ONE?

THANK YOU.

10:54:50 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I'M SORRY TO ASK THIS QUESTION, BUT IS IT

COUNCIL'S INTENTION TO HOLD DISCUSSION RATHER THAN CUT IT

SHORT FOR THE PURPOSES OF GETTING TO THE ATU, IF YOU CAN

WAIT TO ITEM 8?

OTHERWISE, YOU HAVE TO INVEST THE TIME NOW TO HEAR THE --

10:54:56 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WAIT FOR NUMBER 8 AND THEN THE MAYOR IS

HAVING A MEETING, MAYBE WE SHOULD WAIT.

10:54:58 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
WITH REGARD TO ANY OTHER CHANGES,

ADDITIONS, SUBSTITUTIONS --

10:54:59 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ANYBODY IN REFERENCE TO THE STAFF REPORTS,

RELEASE ANYBODY, HAVE THE GENTLEMAN GO THROUGH THE LIST OF




69 AND 78?

10:55:02 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MR. CHAIRMAN, WITH REGARD TO THE STAFF

REPORTS AND UNFINISHED BUSINESS, ANY CONFERENCE WITH THE

CHIEF OF STAFF, HE DOES ASK COUNCIL TO REVIEW THOSE ITEMS,

NUMBER 69 TODAY THROUGH 78, TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY THAT DO

REQUIRE STAFF TO BE PRESENT, AND IF THE REPORTS ARE

SUFFICIENT, TO RELEASE THE ADMINISTRATION STAFF MEMBERS SO

THEY CAN GET BACK TO THEIR DAY JOB, AND OTHERWISE, IF THERE

ARE THINGS THAT COUNCIL DOES WISH TO HAVE STAFF APPEAR ON,

TO BE ABLE TO PUT THE ADMINISTRATION ON NOTICE, SO THE STAFF

REPORT AT 1:30, THEY WILL BE STANDING BY.

10:55:14 >>BILL CARLSON:
I THINK WE OUGHT TO RECEIVE AND FILE NUMBER

76.

10:55:15 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
SECOND BY MR. MANISCALCO.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY DISCUSSION?

MOTION PASSES.

10:55:17 >>LUIS VIERA:
COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER CAN GO FIRST.

YOU KNOW WHAT, I GUESS I WILL GO FIRST.

FOR 75 I DON'T NEED ANYBODY HERE.

WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT BUT I DON'T NEED ANYONE HERE FOR THAT.

10:55:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
75.

YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

10:55:22 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THAT'S ON NUMBER 75.

THANK YOU.




10:55:23 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
IN REGARD TO ITEM NUMBER 70, WE STARTED

A CONVERSATION THIS WEEK.

I APPRECIATE HER TIME.

I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO COMPLETELY GET BACK TO HER, SO I

WOULD ASK FOR A ONE-MONTH CONTINUANCE ON ITEM NUMBER 70, AND

HOPEFULLY WE CAN WRAP THAT UP AND BRING THE ORDINANCE TO

COUNCIL AT THAT TIME.

10:55:30 >> I'LL SECOND THAT.

10:55:30 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
SECOND BY MR. VIERA.

YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, MR. SHELBY.

10:55:32 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

THE DATE THEN WOULD BE JUNE 3rd AT STAFF REPORTS AND

UNFINISHED BUSINESS?

10:55:34 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
YES, SIR.

10:55:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, MR. DINGFELDER.

I WOULD LIKE TO BRING THAT TO A CLOSE.

10:55:36 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
AND A VOTE ON THAT, PLEASE, SIR.

10:55:37 >> MOTION BY MR. DINGFELDER.

I THINK IT WAS SECONDED BY MR. VIERA.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ITEM NUMBER 70.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY.

10:55:41 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CHAIRMAN, THE OTHER ITEM IS ITEM 18.




I APOLOGIZE FOR NOT BRINGING THIS FORWARD BY MEMO YESTERDAY.

I WOULD LIKE TO CARRY THIS OVER FOR TWO WEEKS TO HAVE A

CHANCE TO DISCUSS THIS ITEM WITH STAFF.

I DON'T NEED A LOT OF TIME BUT I DO NEED TO GO OFFLINE WITH

THEM ON ITEM 18.

SO I MOVE TO CONTINUE THAT FOR TWO WEEKS.

10:55:48 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MR. CHAIRMAN, IF I CAN, THAT BEING ON THE

CONSENT DOCKET, MY SUGGESTION WOULD BE IF THE STAFF IS

AVAILABLE, IF THERE'S AN ISSUE THAT THEY NEED TO COMMENT TO

BRING TO STAFF'S ATTENTION BEFORE THERE IS A MOTION VOTED

ON, TO GET STAFF INPUT WITH REGARD TO THAT ITEM.

ULTIMATELY IT'S COUNCIL'S DECISION, OF COURSE.

BUT A REQUEST FOR CONTINUANCE, I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS TIME

SENSITIVE BUT NORM LIP AS A COURTESY.

10:55:58 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
HOW ABOUT A DIFFERENT ROUTE?

WHY DON'T WE CONTINUE IT FOR NOW, AND IF THEY HAVE CONCERN

WITH THAT, THEY CAN LET ME KNOW AND I WILL BRING IT BACK

LATER IN THE MEETING.

10:56:01 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THEN THE MOTION WOULD BE THEN TO CONTINUE

IT FOR --

10:56:03 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
TWO WEEKS.

10:56:03 >>THE CLERK:
MAY 20th.

10:56:03 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION MADE BY MR. DINGFELDER.

SECOND BY MR. MANISCALCO.

10:56:05 >>LUIS VIERA:
I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO ANYTHING BEFORE ATU.




I KNOW THEY ARE WAITING FOR US.

MY ONLY ISSUE WITH THIS, I WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH A

CONTINUANCE.

I'M SURE.

I JUST WANT TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING FROM STAFF.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.

IS THERE ANY WAY, MR. SHELBY, THAT WE CAN CONTINUE IT NOW,

AGAIN OUT OF DEFERENCE TO COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER?

AND IF THEY WANT TO THE BE BROUGHT UP, WE CAN BRING IT BACK

ON THE AGENDA IF NEED BE?

10:56:15 >> ABSOLUTELY.

10:56:15 >>LUIS VIERA:
THANK YOU, SIR.

10:56:16 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I AM ON THE LINE, SHOULD

ADDRESS THE MATTER.

10:56:26 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

DAILY BASIS TO MAKE THIS CITY WORK, AS YOU WELL KNOW BEING

AN ENGINEER AND WORKING AS HARD AS YOU HAVE FOR YOUR GOOD

BUT YOU AND YOUR GROUP AND YOUR OPERATION OF THE UNION THAT

DAILY BASIS.

CONGRATULATIONS SIR.

10:58:09 >> THANK YOU.

10:58:09 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THERE'S A GUY BY THE NAME OF STEPHEN

MICHELINI BEHIND YOU AND I DIDN'T SEE HIM.

I'M SURE HE HAS SOME GOODIES FOR YOU.

10:58:12 >>STEVE MICHELINI:
THIS IS A BIG GUY HERE.

[ LAUGHTER ]

10:58:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I COULDN'T SEE HIS HAND GOING UP.

10:58:14 >>STEVE MICHELINI:
I ASKED, DID HE PLAY FOR THE BUCS OR

SOMETHING?

YOU KNOW, STEVE MICHELINI, HERE ON BEHALF OF A COUPLE OF

DIFFERENT FOLKS, AND FIRST I WANTED TO SAY THAT THE BACK OF

THE HOUSE PEOPLE, THE GUYS AND THE WOMEN IN THE CONTRACT

ADMINISTRATION MAKE THINGS RUN SMOOTHLY.

THEY ARE THE ONES WHO ENSURE THAT THE CONTRACTS FOR THE




FIELD WORKERS GO CORRECTLY IN THE WAY THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO

GO.

SO WE APPRECIATE THEM.

THEY ARE RARELY SEEN, BUT WE ALL HEAR ABOUT THEM.

AND BECAUSE THESE PROJECTS MOVE FORWARD, IN AN EXPEDITIOUS

MANNER.

SO ON BEHALF OF THE STRAZ CENTER, WE ARE GOING TO PROVIDE A

GIFT CERTIFICATE SO HE CAN GO SEE THE SHOW OF HIS CHOICE AND

WE HAVE A WHOLE LIST OF SHOWS THAT HE CAN CHOOSE FROM.

ON BEHALF OF CICCIO'S RESTAURANT GROUP, A GIFT CERTIFICATE

FOR HIS CHOICE BREAKFAST LUNCH OR DINNER.

ON BEHALF OF YUMMY HOUSE CHINA BISTRO, WE ARE PROVIDING HIM,

AND UM SURE HIS CO-WORKERS ARE GOING TO WANT TO GO TO THAT

ONE.

BUT HE CAN CHOOSE AGAIN LUNCH OR DINNER.

AND WE ARE VERY HAPPY TO PRESENT THAT TO HIM.

AND CONGRATULATIONS FOR WHAT YOU DO FOR US.

10:58:38 >> THANK YOU, SIR.

10:58:38 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR.

ANYBODY ELSE?

10:58:40 >> I WANTED TO ON BEHALF OF ATLU 1864 GIVE A TOKEN OF

APPRECIATION TO JAMES $100 GIFT CARD.

10:58:43 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

10:58:44 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
JAMES, FIRST OFF, I WANT TO THANK




CHAIRMAN GUDES AND MR. SIMON FOR DOING THIS AWARD ON A

REGULAR BASIS.

IT'S IMPORTANT THAT ALL OF OUR EMPLOYEES SEE THAT WE

APPRECIATE THEIR HARD WORK.

JAMES, YOU HAVE A GROUP OF FOLKS BEHIND YOU.

YOUR WORK MATES BACK THERE, INCLUDING MR. BAIRD.

AND WE HAVE ALL WORKED CLOSELY WITH MR. BAIRD FOR MANY

YEARS.

AND IF MR. BAIRD SAYS YOU ARE A GOOD GUY AND HE'S STANDING

THERE SHAKING HIS HEAD, THEN WE KNOW YOU ARE A GOOD GUY AND

WE APPRECIATE YOUR HARD WORK.

THANK YOU.

10:58:56 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

WE MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER 5.

THANKS FOR COMING.

10:58:57 >> THANK YOU.

10:58:58 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CHAIRMAN, I WANT TO CLARIFY IN

REGARD TO STAFF REPORTS THE ONES WE ARE RELEASING.

IT'S A LITTLE CONFUSING.

SO BASICALLY, ARE WE SAYING THAT IF THEY GAVE US A MEMO,

THAT THAT'S ADEQUATE AND WE ARE NOT GOING TO HEAR FROM THEM?

WHAT ARE WE SAYING HERE?

10:59:05 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. SHELBY, CAN YOU SPEAK TO THAT?

I THINK THAT'S A DISCUSSION WE MAY HAVE LATER ON DOWN THE

LINE WITH CHIEF OF STAFF IN REFERENCE TO SOME HOUSE CLEANING




THINGS.

10:59:08 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
SPECIFICALLY, I THOUGHT -- THEY ARE ALL

IMPORTANT ISSUES.

I BROUGHT UP AN IMPORTANT ISSUE ON ITEM 74 IN RELATION TO AN

IMPACT FEE TO HELP SUPPORT POLICE AND FIRE.

AND WE GOT TWO MEMOS BACK BUT I THINK A DISCUSSION ON THAT

WOULD BE GOOD.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE WE ARE IN THAT.

10:59:15 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MR. CHAIRMAN, I THINK THAT'S EXACTLY THE

POINT THAT IF THERE ARE MEMOS THAT ARE RECEIVED, IT SAYS TO

APPEAR AND PROVIDE A REPORT.

BUT IF COUNCIL SHOULD FEEL THAT THE REPORT SUFFICES, AND YOU

HAVE CERTAINLY THE OPPORTUNITY TO RELEASE THE ADMINISTRATION

FROM HAVING TO SPEAK AT STAFF REPORTS SEWING THAT WILL NOT

BE NECESSARY FOR DISCUSSION AT COUNCIL'S DETERMINATION.

IN REGARD TO, LET'S SAY, NUMBER 74, WHAT COUNCILMEMBER

DINGFELDER SAID WAS REQUEST THAT STAFF BE PRESENT FOR THE

1:30 STAFF REPORTS TO DISCUSS ITEM 74.

THAT'S APPROPRIATE.

FOR INSTANCE, THERE ARE SOME, FOR INSTANCE, NUMBER 75 WITH

THE ROLE IS JUST TO PROVIDE A REPORT, THAT IS APPROPRIATE TO

MAKE IT CLEAR TO RELEASE THE ADMINISTRATOR FROM HAVING TO BE

ONLINE FOR ITEM 75 AND THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE DONE PREVIOUSLY.

WITH REGARD, LET'S SAY, TO NUMBER 77, THAT'S TO INVESTIGATE

AND REPORT.




YOU DID HAVE A MEMORANDUM TO RECEIVE AND FILE.

THE QUESTION IS WHETHER COUNCIL WANTS MR. PEREZ OR A MEMBER

OF THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT TO BE HERE FOR A REPORT ON NUMBER

77.

IF THAT REPORT SUFFICES, TO RELEASE THE ADMINISTRATION AND

THE STAFF FROM HAVING TO BE ON CALL.

THE SAME THING WITH NUMBER 78.

NUMBER 78 IS A REPORT, AND THAT WAS DISTRIBUTED TO COUNCIL.

THE QUESTION IS WHETHER YOU WANT TO HAVE SOMEBODY HERE ON

NUMBER 78.

SO I UNDERSTAND COUNCIL, AND I HAVE HAD THIS OPPORTUNITY,

AND MR. CHAIRMAN, CERTAINLY WE'LL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO

SPEAK WITH THE CHIEF OF STAFF BUT THE CHIEF OF STAFF HAS

COMMUNICATED THAT THE TIME THAT YOU INVEST UPFRONT IN GIVING

DIRECTION TO COUNCIL AS TO THEIR TIME REQUIREMENTS FOR YOUR

WILL CERTAINLY AID IN THEIR EFFICIENCY, AND IT'S VERY MUCH

APPRECIATED BY THE ADMINISTRATION FOR YOU TO BE ABLE TO LOOK

THROUGH YOUR STAFF REPORTS AND DETERMINE WHICH YOU FEEL AS A

COUNCIL ARE NECESSARY FOR STAFF TO BE HERE.

AND OF COURSE TODAY THERE ARE A LOT OF STAFF REPORTS,

COUNCIL, AND I RECOGNIZE THAT.

THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS ON THE AGENDA FOR YOU TO LOOK

THROUGH.

10:59:54 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
COULD I MAKE A SUGGESTION?

10:59:55 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR.




10:00:35 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MAYBE WHEN WE ARE DOING THE AGENDA

REVIEW IN THE BEGINNING, MAYBE, MR. CHAIRMAN, MIGHT WANT TO

JUMP TO THE STAFF REPORTS AND WALK THROUGH EACH ONE, AND

JUST SAY, RELEASE, IF ANYBODY HAS ANY OBJECTION, SPEAK UP,

THIS ONE IS RELEASED, THIS ONE STAYS, THIS ONE IS RELEASED,

AND THAT WAY EACH COUNCIL PERSON CAN SPEAK UP TO EACH ONE.

10:00:57 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I THINK THAT MIGHT BE A GOOD SUGGESTION,

MR. DINGFELDER.

I WILL GIVE TO THE MR. SHELBY AND IS THE T STAFF.

FORGIVE ME, 78, I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT WAS JUST A REPORT.

I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE AN APPEARANCE BECAUSE I DID -- I HAD

A CONVERSATION WITH HR ABOUT 78.

AND I THOUGHT COUNCIL TO DETERMINE AT WELL.

I KIND OF THOUGHT THEY WOULD BE HERE AND I COULD CHIME IN ON

78 AS WELL.

SO I GET YOUR POINT.

MR. SHELBY AND MYSELF WILL DISCUSS THOSE ISSUES BECAUSE I

THINK MR. DINGFELDER MAKES A GOOD POINT BECAUSE THINGS DO

COME UP ALONG THE WAY.

10:01:36 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MR. CHAIRMAN, YOU RAISE ALSO A VERY

INTERESTING REPORT.

IF THERE IS A WRITTEN REPORT BUT THE REPORT RAISES

QUESTIONS, DURING YOUR APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA YOU COULD

STILL SAY THAT YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, THAT YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO

ANSWER OR HAVE THE STAFF ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS IN ADVANCE




OF THE MEETING, SO YOU WILL HAVE TO HAVE THEM THERE.

BUT IF YOU WANT THEM TO APPEAR DURING THE APPROPRIATE

AGENDA, SAY YES, WE HAVE A REPORT THAT'S BEEN DISTRIBUTED, I

DO REQUEST OR COUNCIL DOES REQUEST STAFF TO BE PRESENT AT

STAFF REPORTS IF THAT'S COUNCIL'S PLEASURE.

10:02:09 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I BELIEVE ON 76, I BELIEVE SHOULD BE ABLE

TO ADDRESS 78 AS WELL.

10:02:16 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
76 WAS ALREADY RECEIVED BY MOTION.

10:02:18 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
CORRECT.

10:02:20 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR PLEASURE IS WITH

REGARD TO 78.

10:02:24 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I WOULD LIKE TO ACTUALLY HEAR THE REPORT

SO COUNCIL CAN REALLY GET A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF 78.

AND I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE IT AND I APOLOGIZE TO STAFF FOR THAT.

10:02:34 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
SO IT IS COUNCIL'S PLEASURE, BY UNANIMOUS

CONSENT, AND WITH THE ADMINISTRATION HOPEFULLY LISTENING, TO

HAVE STAFF PRESENT FOR NUMBER 78 TO DISCUSS?

IS THAT YOUR INTENTION?

10:02:47 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YES, SIR.

10:02:49 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.

10:02:49 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
DO YOU WANT TO WALK THROUGH EACH ONE AND

SEE IF ANYBODY WANTS TO PULL IT?

10:02:56 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YES.

WE CAN DO THAT NOW.

ITEM 70.




10:03:03 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
CONTINUE TO JUNE 3rd.

WITH REGARD TO THE ADMINISTRATION UPDATE AND AGENDA REVIEW

OF THE CITY CLERK AND CHIEF OF STAFF AND THE LEGAL

DEPARTMENT YESTERDAY, WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT THERE IS NO

ADMINISTRATION UPDATE ON NUMBER 69.

10:03:17 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
71, A MOTION TO CONTINUE.

NO QUESTION ON THAT.

10:03:27 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF I CAN.

DO YOU WANT TO TAKE UP THAT MEMORANDUM AND TAKE IT OFF THE

AGENDA?

10:03:36 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I WILL MOVE 71 AND 72.

10:03:41 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. CARLSON SECONDED.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIED.

73?

10:03:51 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I'M OKAY FOR THAT TO GO AWAY.

10:03:58 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
SO WE CAN RELEASE ON 73.

10:04:01 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YOU CAN DO A MOTION TO RECEIVE AND FILE.

10:04:05 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION BY DINGFELDER, SECOND BY MIRANDA.

MOTION CARRIED.

10:04:10 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
73 IS RELEASED.

THANK YOU.

10:04:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
74 IS APPEARING.

10:04:16 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
74 I WOULD LIKE US ALL TO TALK ABOUT IT.




10:04:22 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
75.

10:04:27 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THAT WAS RELEASED.

I CORRECT, MADAM CLERK?

10:04:31 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
74, SATISFIED WITH THE REPORT.

75.

10:04:38 >> [OFF MICROPHONE] IF I COULD DISCUSS --

10:04:57 >>LUIS VIERA:
I MAY WANT TO SAY SOME REMARKS ON IT BUT I

DON'T NEED ANYBODY FROM STAFF ON IT.

10:05:01 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION TO WITHDRAW?

76.

10:05:08 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
76 IS GONE.

76 IS GONE.

77.

10:05:14 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I BELIEVE THAT WAS MR. MANISCALCO.

MOTION.

I DO WANT A REPORT, MR. MANISCALCO?

10:05:29 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I BELIEVE THAT MR. MANISCALCO IS CORRECT

ON THESE ISSUES.

NOT ONLY IN THAT AREA THAT HE SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED IN THIS

REPORT, THIS INVESTIGATION AND REPORT, BUT THE WHOLE CITY OF

TAMPA HAS COME TO GRIPS WITH WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH

THE ILLEGAL TRUCKS, AND I DON'T MEAN TRUCKS THAT ARE

F-150s, I MEAN SEMI, TWO AND A HALF TONS, THAT ARE PARKED

EVERYWHERE IN THE CITY, AND THEY ARE LEAVING THEM THERE FROM

FRIDAY NIGHT TO MONDAY MORNING.




AND SOME KID IS GOING TO GET KILLED UNEXPECTEDLY BECAUSE THE

TRAFFIC CAN'T SEE THEM, COME UP BEHIND ONE OF THOSE TRUCKS,

THEY ARE PARKED THERE ON CITY ROAD, CITY RIGHT-OF-WAY, AND

YOU ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE A CHANCE TO STOP, AND THE FAMILIES

OF BOTH SIDES, THOSE THAT ARE DECEASED AND THOSE THAT DID,

THE ACT OF NOT TRYING TO KILL ANYONE, BUT IT'S AN ACT TWO

FAMILIES DON'T GET HURT, AND HE'S 100% IN DOING THIS.

10:06:31 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I'M SORRY, I CAN'T SEE MR. MANISCALCO FROM

WHERE I AM.

BUT IF IT'S COUNCIL'S INTENTION TO WANT TO DISCUSS THIS

BECAUSE YOU ARE IN THE SUNSHINE, THIS IS THE OPPORTUNITY FOR

TO YOU HEAR FROM EACH OTHER.

IF YOU WANT STAFF PRESENT FOR NUMBER 77 YOU CAN DO THAT WHEN

YOU DISCUSS IT.

10:06:47 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
I WOULD LIKE THAT JUST SO THE PUBLIC IS

CLEAR THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT ENFORCEMENT FOR THESE VEHICLES.

COUNCILMAN MIRANDA SAID IT ALL.

SUNDAY MORNING, I GET A PHONE CALL ABOUT A TRACTOR TRAILER

PARKING THAT REGULARLY PARKS IN THIS GENTLEMAN'S PARKING LOT

ON HIS PROPERTY, TEARING UP HIS PARKING LOT, BLOCKING THE

STOP SIGN, BLOCKING VISIBILITY, WHERE AGAIN SOMEONE IS GOING

TO GET KILLED.

THAT'S THE NEWEST COMPLAINT.

OTHER TIMES THEY ARE BLOCKING SIDEWALKS.

I HAVE PEOPLE COMPLAINING, ADA ACCESSIBILITY WHERE THE




SIDEWALK IS THERE, BUT THESE VEHICLES ARE PARKING ON THE

RIGHT-OF-WAY AND BLOCKING EVERYTHING, MEANING THAT THEY HAVE

TO TAKE THEIR MOTORIZED WHEELCHAIRS OUT INTO THE STREET,

WHICH POSES A HAZARD.

CHILDREN INVOLVED.

PEOPLE ON BICYCLES.

WHATEVER IT IS.

I WOULD LIKE STAFF HERE JUST SO WE GET CLARITY FOR THE

PUBLIC TO KNOW BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING COMPLAINTS.

I KNOW COUNCILMAN MIRANDA HAS BEEN RECEIVING COMPLAINTS FOR

YEARS.

AND WE WANT THE PEOPLE TO KNOW THAT THERE IS ENFORCEMENT

COMING, VIA TPD, VIA CODE ENFORCEMENT WHERE WE ARE DOING

SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.

10:07:55 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALL RIGHT.

AND I HAVE ALREADY COMMENTED ON 78.

I THINK, MR. SHELBY, IN IT FUTURE, THESE STAFF REPORTS, WE

NEED TO GO DOWN EACH ONE AND MAKE SURE THAT THE STAFF,

BECAUSE SOMETIMES WE MISS THINGS, AND WE DON'T WANT TO DO

THAT.

I THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA WE GO DOWN THE STAFF REPORTS FIRST

WE MADE THE CORRECTIONS.

WE GO TO ITEM 5.

10:08:27 >>SHIRLEY FOXX-KNOWLES:
CITY CLERK, REGARDING ITEM NUMBER

5.




AS IT RELATES TO EQUAL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY ADVISORY

COMMISSION, THIS ITEM WAS CONTINUED REGARDING THE TERM, AND

I BELIEVE MR. HART AND MR. SHELBY, THEY HAVE BOTH BEEN

TALKING, SO I WANT TO REPORT?

10:09:02 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
COUNCIL, I DISTRIBUTED TO YOU A

COMMUNICATION THAT I HAD WITH MR. GREG HART, THE McOF THE

EQUAL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY OFFICE, AND HE DOES CONFIRM THAT

THE EBOAC HAVE BEEN MEETING SINCE AUGUST WHEN THEY

RECONVENED, AND HAVE BEEN MEETING VIRTUALLY AND HAVE BEEN

MEETING CONSISTENTLY.

SO WITH THAT HE STATED THAT THEIR INITIAL APPOINTMENT

EXPIRED ON AUGUST 23rd OF 2020, AND HENCE THEIR

APPOINTMENTS WILL EXPIRE IN AUGUST OF 2022 AND CONSISTENT

WITH THAT DIRECTION, I HAVE PREPARED A RESOLUTION FOR

COUNCIL'S APPROVAL, WHICH IS RETROACTIVE TO AUGUST 23rd

OF 2020.

SO IF COUNCIL WISHES TO MOVE THE RESOLUTION, THAT WOULD

PRESENT IT FOR THE CHAIRMAN'S SIGNATURE.

10:09:56 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
SO MOVED.

10:09:59 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MANISCALCO SECONDS IT.

ALL IN FAVOR?

OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIED.

10:10:04 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR COUNCILMAN MIRANDA FOR

BRINGING THIS ISSUE TO CLARITY.




THANK YOU.

10:10:08 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

10:10:11 >>SHIRLEY FOXX-KNOWLES:
[OFF MICROPHONE]

10:10:35 >> MOVE TO APPROVE.

10:10:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MANISCALCO MOVED.

MR. CITRO SECONDS.

ALL IN FAVOR?

MOTION CARRIED.

10:10:44 >>SHIRLEY FOXX-KNOWLES:
ITEM NUMBER 7.

WE HAVE ANOTHER REAPPOINTMENT ON CODE ENFORCEMENT/PUBLIC

NUISANCE ABATEMENT BOARD FOR JASON VALKENBURG LOOKING TO BE

REAPPOINTED GO MOVED BY CITRO, SECOND BY MIRANDA.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIES.

10:11:05 >>SHIRLEY FOXX-KNOWLES:
THANK YOU VERY KINDLY.

10:11:07 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I DON'T BELIEVE WE HAVE ANY REQUESTS FOR

PUBLIC CONSIDERATION OF LEGISLATIVE MATTERS.

DO WE?

10:11:19 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
NOT THAT I AM AWARE.

YOU CAN MAKE THAT ANNOUNCEMENT.

I DON'T BELIEVE ANYBODY IS REGISTERED FOR THAT.

10:11:25 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ANYBODY REGISTERED FOR THAT, DEPUTY CLERK?

10:11:29 >> NO, NOBODY REGISTERED.

10:11:32 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I DON'T BELIEVE THERE'S ANYBODY ON THE




SECOND FLOOR.

10:11:36 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE MOVE TO PUBLIC COMMENT.

THANK YOU, DEPUTY CLERK.

MOVE TO PUBLIC COMMENT.

HOW MANY DO WE HAVE DOWNSTAIRS?

10:11:44 >>THE CLERK:
I BELIEVE THERE ARE 10.

10:11:49 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
OKAY.

10:11:57 >> HELLO, COUNCIL.

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

THANK YOU.

I WILL BE VERY BRIEF.

DARRYL MCINTYRE, 100 SOUTH ASHLEY DRIVE, SUITE 200 IN TAMPA,

ALSO A TAMPA RESIDENT, AND I HAVE WORKED WITH DUNBAR LLP,

AND WHILE I GENERALLY OPPOSE WHAT I CALL THE ALTERNATE

MORATORIUM PROCESS ON APARTMENTS, IN ANY GEOGRAPHY WITHIN

THE CITY OF TAMPA AND LAND USE CATEGORIES, I WOULD SUPPORT

THE CONTINUANCE.

I THINK THAT'S A GREAT IDEA TO MOVE THE FOCUS BACK TO SOUTH

OF GANDY, AND TO HAVE THE DEBATE WHERE THE DEBATE STARTED

AND WHERE THE ISSUE IS INTENSE.

THAT'S WHERE THIS ISSUE BELONGS.

AND THE FACT THAT IT'S CITY-WIDE, IT'S WRECKING HAVOC IN THE

REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY.

WE ARE GETTING A LOT OF CALLS, IT'S DESTROYING

PREDICTABILITY IN THE LAND USE PROCESS, AND AT LEAST MOVING




THE DISCUSSION BACK TO SOUTH OF GANDY WOULD BE A TREMENDOUS

BENEFIT.

AGAIN, I DON'T SUPPORT THE MORATORIUM IN GENERAL, BUT AT

LEAST MOVING THIS SESSION BACK TO SOUTH OF GANDY WHERE IT

BELONGS.

THANK YOU.

10:13:16 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

10:13:17 >> GOOD MORNING.

MY NAME IS AARON CHANCEY, LIVE IN NORTH YBOR, AFTERNOON IT

PROFESSIONAL WORKING IN DOWNTOWN TAMPA AND I AM HERE TO

DISCUSS PERMITTING AND CONSTRUCTION SERVICES.

WHEN I MOVED TO EAST TAMPA OVER THREE YEARS AGO, 1816 EAST

18th AVENUE WAS OWNED BY THE SERRALLES GROUP, ATTEMPTED

TO RENT OUT THEIR SHED IN THE BACKYARD, HOWEVER AN ORDER

SAYING THE SHED WAS NOT A SEPARATE DOMICILE AND COULD NOT BE

RENTED AS SUCH.

THE ORDER STATED THAT THE KITCHEN THAT WAS INSTALLED WITHOUT

PERMITS IN THE SHED IN ADDITION TO THE SEPARATE ELECTRIC

METER WAS TO BE REMOVED.

IT NEVER WAS.

THE GROUP THEN TRANSFERRED THE PROPERTY TO ONE OF THEIR

EMPLOYEES, AND WILLIAM DID RENT OUT THE SHED.

THIS WAS REPORTED TO AND OBSERVED BY TAMPA'S CODE

ENFORCEMENT.

AT SOME POINT LATER THE LAST RENTERS OF THE SHED LEFT, THERE




WAS A FIRE DAMAGING THE INTERIOR THAT MADE IT UNINHABITABLE.

THAT IS ITS CURRENT STATE.

A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO WILLIAMS SOLD 1816 EAST 18th

AVENUE TO ANOTHER INVESTOR WHO INTENSIFIED FOR A PERMIT TO

RENOVATE THE MAIN HOUSE AND THE T SHED, CALLING THE SHED A

DETACHED MOTHER-IN-LAW SUITE.

THEY HAVE NOT YET SUBMITTED PLANS.

HOWEVER, LIKE THE INVESTOR WHO OWNS 1813 EAST 18th

AVENUE, THE PRECONSTRUCTION SITE PLAN WAS CHICKEN SCRATCH ON

A SHEET OF PAPER AND ALSO LIKE THAT OTHER INVESTOR SOME

LEVEL OF CONSTRUCTION STARTED PRIOR TO A PERMIT BEING ISSUED

AS WAS EVIDENCED BY THE WORK THROUGH ON-SITE WORKING LAST

WEEK, MULTIPLE WORK TRUCKS IN AND OUT OF THE PROPERTY AND

THE TWO DUMPSTERS PUT OUT SCRAP BUILDING MATERIALS THAT WERE

FILLED UP BY THEIR EFFORTS.

ONE HAS SINCE BEEN HAULED AWAY.

THE OTHER IS STILL SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY.

I SINCERELY HOPE THAT UNLIKE THE INVESTOR WHO OWNED 1813

EAST 18th AVENUE, A PERMIT WILL NOT BE ISSUED FOR PLANS

THAT DO NOT MEET THE SPECIFICATIONS THAT THE CITY OF TAMPA

HELD US TO WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I RECENTLY IMPROVED OUR HOME.

I ALSO HOPE THAT NO PERMITS WILL BE ISSUED FOR WORK ON 1816

EAST 18th AVENUE UNTIL COMPLETE.

THIS COMPLIES WITH THE CITY'S ORDER TO REMOVE THE

KITCHENETTE AND THE ELECTRIC METERS PRESENTLY INSTALLED ON




THE SHED.

ALTHOUGH GIVEN WHAT HAS HAPPENED WITH THE INVESTOR-OWNED

PROPERTIES AT 1813 EAST 18th AVENUE AND THE HISTORY WITH

1816 EAST 18th AVENUE, I HAVE LITTLE HOPE FOR EITHER OF

THOSE OUTCOMES.

IT SEEMS AS THOUGH INVESTORS GET TO PLAY BY A DIFFERENT SET

OF RULES THAN THE REST OF US HOMEOWNERS.

OFTEN AT THE EXPENSE OF THE REST OF US, AND MORE OVER, THE

EXPENSE OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LISTENING.

10:16:26 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR, MR. MIRANDA.

10:16:34 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
[OFF MICROPHONE] ... THEIR OWN NAME SO

THEY GET PREFERENCE AS A HOMEOWNER AT TAX RATE INSTEAD OF A

BUSINESS TAX RATE, AND IF YOU ARE PAYING $1,000 A YEAR, YOU

SHOULD BE PAYING $4,000 A YEAR OR THEREABOUTS, AND WHAT'S

HAPPENING HERE IS THAT THE CITY OF TAMPA IS SUFFERING,

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY IS SUFFERING, AND MORE IMPORTANT, THE

SCHOOL BOARD IS SUFFERING.

NONE OF THOSE TAXES ARE COLLECTED.

AND ON TOP OF THAT, I'M NOT SAYING THAT THEY ARE CHEATING, I

SAYING THAT IT DOESN'T APPLY, MORE LIKELY, IN THEIR TAXES

WHEN IT WAS APRIL, AND I THINK TO THIS MONTH OF MAY WHERE

THEY APPLY, THAT NEVER SHOWS, BECAUSE IT'S NOT A RENTAL

BUSINESS, IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT WAS ADDED ON.




AND THESE ARE THE PROBLEMS THAT WE ARE FACING INFORM

WHATEVER REASON THROUGHOUT THE CITY OF TAMPA AND THROUGHOUT

THE WHOLE STATE OF FLORIDA AND POSSIBLY THE NATION.

AND IT'S NOT THAT THEY DON'T CARE, IT'S THAT THERE'S SO MANY

OF THEM WITHIN A SMALL TAKE ON SAMPLING ABOUT FIVE YEARS

AGO, AND IN A SMALL AREA OF A CERTAIN DISTRICT IN WEST

TAMPA, WE FOUND 232 HOMES THAT WERE IDENTIFIED IN A SMALL

AREA AS MORE THAN LIKELY HAVING RENTAL PROPERTY WITHOUT

CONSENT, WITHOUT PAYING TAXES, WITHOUT PAYING SOMETHING.

AND WHAT'S HAPPENING IS THAT THE GENERAL POPULATION ARE THE

ONES THAT ARE PAYING THEIR TAX, BECAUSE THE COST OF LIVING

GOES UP NOT ONLY FOR CITY EMPLOYEES BUT FOR ALL BUSINESSES,

AND LET'S FACE IT, WHAT'S HAPPENING, MR. CHAIRMAN, IS

SOMETHING WHAT SHE SAID A GRANDMOTHER, OR A MOTHER-IN-LAW

SUITE, THAT'S ANOTHER THING.

I AM GOING TO MAKE A MOTION, AND I WILL TELL WHAT YOU IT IS,

IT'S FOR THIS CITY TO IDENTIFY THE MOTHER-IN-LAW SUITE OR

THE GRANDMOTHER SUITE, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT, THEY

ARE GOING TO HAVE TO PROVE TO US THAT THE BLOOD LINE IS

THERE.

THERE'S ALL KIND OF ABILITIES NOW THAT THAT CAN BE DONE, AND

NOT AT GREAT EXPENSE.

AND WHY SHOULD WE BE RESPONSIBLE FOR TRACKING DOWN IF THEY

REALLY ARE RELATED?

THEY HAVE TO THAT THAT'S THEIR PARENT, AND FIGURE IT OUT.




AND AT ONE TIME, AND I HOPE THIS IS STILL DONE, IN CERTAIN

AREAS OF THE CITY, THAT WAS ALLOWED WAY BACK AND I HAVE NO

PROBLEM WITH THAT AT ALL.

IN FACT I STILL DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT IF IT'S REALLY

FOR YOUR FAMILY MEMBER.

BUT YOU HAVE TO PRESENT THE EVIDENCE TO THIS CITY THAT IT IS

YOUR FAMILY MEMBER.

WE DON'T HAVE TO GO OUT AND INVESTIGATE THAT IT IS.

BUT AT THE END OF THE MEETING I WILL MAKE SOMETHING,

MR. CHAIRMAN, BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT'S BECOMING A HARD

BURDEN TO THE REST OF THE TAXPAYERS.

THANK YOU.

10:19:43 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I APPRECIATE THAT, MIRANDA, AND LOOK

FORWARD TO YOUR MOTION DURING NEW BUSINESS.

YES, SIR, YOU CAN BEGIN.

10:19:50 >> MY NAME IS CLAYTON LONG, I LIVE IN THE NORTH YBOR EAST

TAMPA AREA.

I'M A BUSINESS OWNER AND A TAMPA RESIDENT OF NEARLY 40

YEARS, AND I HAVE COME TO TALK ABOUT PERMITTING AND

CONSTRUCTION SERVICES.

A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I ADDRESSED THE CITY COUNCIL

CONCERNING AN INVESTOR IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHO OWNS AT LEAST

TWO HOUSES IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD.

HE HAD TWO STOP WORK ORDERS ISSUES ISSUED ON HIS 1813 EAST

18th AVENUE HOUSE.




I DISCUSSED HOW HE APPLIED FOR A PERMIT AFTER HIS FIRST STOP

WORK ORDER ON THAT HOUSE AND I DESCRIBED HOW HIS PLANS WERE

APPROVED EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE NOT TO SCALE AND DID NOT HAVE

DIAGRAMS, DIDN'T HAVE WINDOW DIAGRAMS, INSTALLATION DETAILS,

AND ALL THE OTHER THINGS THAT WERE LISTED AS IN SCOPE FOR

THE PERMIT.

TWO WEEKS AGO I RETURNED TO TELL YOU THAT MR. HUTCHINSON

FROM TAMPA'S CONSTRUCTION SERVICES CONTACTED ME, PRESUMABLY

AT THE URGING OF ONE OR MORE MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL, AND HE

TOLD ME THAT HE WOULD ENSURE CONSTRUCTION WOULD NOT START AT

1813 EAST 18th AVENUE UNTIL THE PLANS MET THE CITY'S

STATED REQUIREMENTS.

THE SAME REQUIREMENTS I HAD TO MEET WHEN I DID CONSTRUCTION

OF A SIMILAR SCOPE OF WORK ON MY HOME JUST THREE YEARS AGO.

A PERMIT WAS ISSUED TO 1813 EAST 18th AVENUE AND THE

PLANS STILL FALL WAY SHORT OF CITY SPECIFICATIONS.

WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT MINOR WORK HERE.

THE SCOPE OF THE WORK INCLUDES WINDOW REPLACEMENTS FOR ALL

THE WINDOWS IN THE HOUSE, REMOVING WALLS, BUILDING THE

KITCHEN WITH -- WITH AN ISLAND, AND SUBSTANTIAL ELECTRICAL

WORK.

SO I STAND BEFORE YOU AGAIN AND ASK WHY IS IT WHEN I APPLY

FOR A PERMIT I HAVE TO MEET THE CITY'S STATED

SPECIFICATIONS, BUT IT'S TO ENSURE THE BUILDING CODE

COMPLIANCE AND TO PROTECT THE NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT WHEN I ASK




WHY ISN'T THE INVESTOR NEXT DOOR HELD TO THE SAME STANDARD,

IT'S APPARENTLY TOO BURDENSOME.

TO ANY OBJECTIVE OBSERVER IT CERTAINLY LOOKS LIKE

SHENANIGANS GOING ON HERE TO. FURTHER ILLUSTRATE THIS

POINT, LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT THE CITY OF TAMPA MADE ME SUBMIT

FOR MY PERMIT PLANS.

THESE ARE DETAILED SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE WINDOW

INSTALLATION.

THESE ARE THE ELECTRICAL DIAGRAMS.

ALL OF THIS IS TO SCALE.

IT HAS ALL OF THE MEASUREMENTS IN IT.

IT IS TO THE SPECIFICATIONS THAT THE CITY REQUIRES INCLUDING

THE EXACT SIZE WHICH THE CITY PUSHED BACK ON ME FOR TWO

MONTHS UNTIL I GOT IT APPROVED.

THE OTHER INVESTOR GOT APPROVED AFTER TWO WEEKS WITH THIS.

NOW, ANY OF YOU LOOK AT THAT AND TELL ME THAT THIS SEEMS

FAIR TO YOU.

THIS PERSON IS GOING TO SELL THIS HOUSE WITHOUT ANY OF THE

WORKERS KNOWING EXACTLY WHAT THEY BUILT, WITHOUT THE

INSPECTOR BEING ABLE TO LOOK AT THIS AND KNOW HOW IT'S BEING

BUILT OR WHAT THE SCOPE OF WORK IS.

10:22:55 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YOU CAN CONTINUE.

10:22:59 >> THIS ENDS UP HURTING PEOPLE.

THIS IS REALLY ALL THAT'S GOING ON HERE.

AND THIS TIME, THE SHIP HAS SAILED.




WORK IS ALREADY COMPLETED ON.

THIS BUT WE KNEW ABOUT THIS AHEAD OF TIME.

WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND WE FAILED

TO DO SO.

AND I JUST WANT US TO RECOGNIZE THAT, AND TRY TO DO BETTER

NEXT TIME.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE ON THIS MATTER.

I KNOW SOME OF YOU WERE INVOLVED WITH THIS, AND DID HELP,

AND I DO APPRECIATE THAT.

BUT THIS IS A REAL ONGOING PROBLEM THAT HONESTLY NEED TO BE

ADDRESSED BY THE CITY OF TAMPA.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

10:23:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

10:23:58 >> MY NAME IS SUSAN LONG.

AND I LIVE IN SEMINOLE HEIGHTS.

THE PROBLEMS YOU HEARD ABOUT FOR THE LAST TWO SPEAKERS ARE

THE SAME PROBLEMS BUT AT A LESSER DEGREE THAT WE HAVE IN

SEMINOLE HEIGHTS.

WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PERMITTING, BUILDINGS THAT ARE IN

TOTAL VIOLATION OF RESTRICTIONS ON BUILDING IN SEMINOLE

HEIGHTS, A HOUSE WAS APPROVED TO BE BUILT FOUR DOORS DOWN

THE STREET FROM ME, IT WAS BEING BUILT UP TO THE SIDEWALK IN

FRONT OF THE HOUSES ON EITHER SIDE, WATTS ZONED SH-RS, WE

ZONED IT THAT WAY PARTICULARLY SO THAT CONSTRUCTION SERVICES

AND ANYBODY ELSE WOULD KNOW IT WAS IN SEMINOLE HEIGHTS AND




NO WHAT THE RESTRICTIONS WERE, AND WE HAD TO CALL

CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, HAVE THEM COME OUT, LOOK AT WHAT THEY

HAVE DONE AND CONSTRUCTION SERVICES MADE THEM RIP OUT

EVERYTHING THEY PUT IN, IT WAS TOO CLOSE TO THE STREET, TOO

CLOSE TO THE NEIGHBOR, ET CETERA.

THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT WE HAVE.

WHAT IS REQUIRED FROM ONE PERSON IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM

WHAT IS REQUIRED FROM ANOTHER.

IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE THE GUY THAT TURNS IN THE PLAN ON A

NAPKIN, AND THEY APPROVE IT, YOU WON FINANCIALLY.

IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE THE PERSON THAT GOT CAUGHT AND MADE TO

FOLLOW THE RESTRICTIONS YOU HAVE TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY TO

MEET THE REQUIREMENTS.

IT'S VERY FRUSTRATING FOR THOSE OF US WHO LIVE IN

NEIGHBORHOOD THAT ARE STILL DEVELOPING OR BEGINNING TO BE

DEVELOPED TO DISCOVER THAT ONE PERSON CAN DO ANYTHING THEY

WANT, AND THE NEXT PERSON HAS TO SPEND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS

TO MAKE IT ACCESSIBLE.

THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR IONS IN THE CITY.

I HAVE LIVED HERE 20-SOME-ODD YEARS AND THIS HAS BEEN GOING

ON SINCE THE DAY I MOVED IN AND I HEAR THESE PROBLEMS HAVE

BEEN SOLVED AND TWO WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING

AGAIN.

I HOPE THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM CAN BE RESOLVED THIS TIME.

THANK YOU.




10:25:49 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

10:25:53 >>STEVE MICHELINI:
I'M HERE TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 8.

AND I URGE YOU TO REJECT THIS PROPOSAL FOR THIS ORDINANCE.

THE ORDINANCE HAS A WIDE RANGING EFFECT.

THERE HAS BEEN NO FINDING OF URGENCY REGARDING THIS.

THE IMPENDING CHALLENGES FOR HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE HAVE

NOTE BEEN DISCRIMINATED.

INDEED THIS ISSUE BOUNCED BACK AND FORTH, STARTED OUT AS

COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AND THEN CAME BACK AN EVACUATION AND

THEN DENSITY AND TRAFFIC AND TRANSPLANTATION TRANSPORTATION,

AND IT HAS UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES REGARDING THE PRINCIPAL

AREAS DESIGNATED FOR GROWTH AND THE TRANSIT CORRIDORS, USF,

WESTSHORE, DOWNTOWN, CHANNELSIDE, YBOR CITY.

THEY WOULD ALL SUFFER.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THE TRANSIT CORRIDORS ARE LEGALLY

DEFINED AND DESIGNATED AS HIGH DENSITY DEVELOPMENT AREAS,

AND THIS HAS BEEN NO SUBSTANTIAL AND COMPETENT EVIDENCE

SUBMITTED, DISCUSSED OR PROVIDED TO WARRANT SUCH AN EXTREME

MEASURE IN THESE AREAS WITH ALL BE IMPACTED.

THERE'S NO EVIDENCE OR ANY MEASURE THAT DEMONSTRATED

JUSTIFICATION FOR ANY ACTIONS SUPPORTING THE PROPOSED

ORDINANCE. IN THIS REGARD, WE ARE ONLY OPPOSED TO -- THIS

IS ON BEHALF OF THE BUILDERS ASSOCIATION -- TO ADOPTING THIS

MEASURE AND THE EFFECTS OF THE ENTIRE CITY.

THE OBJECTIVES OF THE ORDINANCE HAVE CHANGED.




WE DO SUPPORT THE FACT THAT THIS HAS BEEN TRANSMITTED TO THE

PLANNING COMMISSION FOR INPUT, EVALUATION, STUDY, AND

RECOMMENDATIONS THAT WILL COME BACK TO THE PLANNING

COMMISSION BOARD AS WELL AS THE TAMPA CITY COUNCIL.

I WOULD LIKE TO SHOW YOU A MAP.

THIS IS THE AREAS THAT WILL BE IMPACTED BY THE PROPOSED

ORDINANCE.

THESE ARE ALL CMU-35, CC-35, AND UMU-60 AREAS.

IF YOU NOTICE, THEY ARE ALL ALIGNED ALONG THE TRANSIT

CORRIDORS.

HERE IS A MAP SHOWING YOU THE DESIGNATED TRANSIT CORRIDORS.

ALL OF THESE HAVE BEEN ADOPTED THROUGH YOUR COMPREHENSIVE

PLAN, AND THEY ARE ALSO REFLECTED IN YOUR CITY OF TAMPA

CODE.

THIS IS A MAP THAT SHOWS YOU THE DISTRICTS OF THE CITY THAT

ARE IMPACTED AND WHERE THEY ARE PRINCIPALLY, AND THIS IS A

DETAIL OF THAT SAME MAP.

PRINCIPALLY THE AREAS WHERE YOU ARE SHOWING AND EXPECTING

GROWTH TO OCCUR THAT WILL BE AFFECTED ARE DISTRICTS 5 AND

DISTRICT 6.

THAT'S EAST TAMPA, YBOR CITY, AND WEST TAMPA, AND THE

AIRPORT AREA.

SO IN THAT REGARD, THE OBJECTIVE, WHICH I UNDERSTOOD IT TO

BE, WAS TO TRY TO ASSIST SOUTH OF GANDY.

THIS COMPLETELY MISSES THE MARK AND AFFECTS OTHER AREAS,




AGAIN UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES.

WE URGE YOU TO REJECT THIS PROPOSAL.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

10:29:06 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

GO AHEAD, SIR.

10:29:41 >> MENTESNOT.

JUST AS IN RECONSTRUCTION, WHITE PEOPLE, RECONSTRUCTION, AND

WHEN YOU HEAR GRANTS, SOUP KITCHEN, AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT

WENT WITH IT, AND THE CARPET BAGGING AND THE SCALLY WAGS AND

EVERYTHING ELSE THAT WENT WITH IT, YOU ALWAYS REFLECT BACK

AND GO BACK TO OLD SLAVERY DAYS BECAUSE I ALWAYS FEEL LIKE

WE ARE IN NEW SLAVERY DAYS.

ALWAYS CONNECT BACK TO SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE CAN UNDERSTAND.

JUST LIKE WE HAVE HAD -- WE HAVE GOT A CHAIRMAN NOW, WE HAVE

GOT AN AFRICAN CHAIRMAN OF THE CITY COUNCIL.

I DON'T NORMALLY HEAR ME THANK PEOPLE, THANK THE KIDS FOR

DOING WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

I WANT TO COMMEND THE CHAIRMAN FOR GETTING THE CHAIRMANSHIP

POSITION OF CITY COUNCIL, WHEN WE DON'T WANT THAT POSITION

TO GO TO WASTE, WE DON'T WANT TO BE LIKE WHEN PERRY HARVEY

WAS THERE AND WHEN GWEN MILLER WAS THERE AND LES MILLER WAS

THERE AND WHEN THE OTHER PEOPLE WERE THERE AND WHEN KEVIN

WHITE WAS THERE, AND WHEN THOMAS SCOTT WAS THERE, WHEN FRANK

REDDICK WAS THERE.

WE WANT -- CAN YOU HOLD DOWN THE CONVERSATION ON THE OTHER




SIDE, PLEASE?

CAN YOU HOLD MY TIME UP?

IF YOU CAN RESTORE MY TIME I WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATIVE.

10:31:03 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WHOEVER IS IN THE STAFF THAT'S IN THERE,

IF YOU CAN MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE ARE QUIET, PLEASE.

10:31:14 >> WE WANT IT TO BE WHEN IT WAS LIKE GRANT SOUP KITCHEN AND

EVERYBODY WAS TRYING TO GET STUFF.

WE GOT AN AFRICAN CHAIRMAN NOW.

WE WANT TO GET SOMETHING.

WE WANT TO GET SOME REPARATIONS WHEREVER THIS CITY SINCE

IT'S FORMED IN 1823.

IN 2023 IT'S GOING TO BE 200 YEARS AND WE AIN'T GOT NOTHING

OUT OF IT.

WE WANT TO GET OUR 26% OUT OF IT.

THAT'S WHAT WE WANT TO GET OUT OF IT.

WE WOULD LIKE OUR CHAIRMAN, WE WOULD LIKE OUR AFRICAN

CHAIRMAN TO START TALKING ABOUT REPARATIONS.

WE WOULD LIKE OUR AFRICAN CHAIRMAN TO START TALKING ABOUT

REALLY BRINGING SOME SERVICES TO OUR COMMUNITY.

WE WOULD LIKE OUR AFRICAN CHAIRMAN TO TALK ABOUT REVERSING

AND BICYCLE STOPS AND TAKEN OFF OF THEIR RECORD.

WE WOULD LIKE OUR AFRICAN CHAIRMAN TO TALK ABOUT EVERYBODY,

EVERYBODY WHO GOT A CODE VIOLATION, WE THINK WANT THAT OFF

THEIR PROPERTY AND OFF THEIR NAME.

THAT'S WHAT WE WANT.




THAT'S WHAT WE WANT INSIDE OUR COMMUNITY BECAUSE YOU KNOW

WHY?

COME DOWN HERE AND TRY TO MAKE SOME NOISE AND TRY TO SAY

SOMETHING AND TRY TO EXPRESS YOURSELF AND THESE PEOPLE HAVE

A HATRED, ALWAYS SAY THEY GOT A HATRED FOR AFRICAN PEOPLE

BUT NOW WE GOT AN AFRICAN CHAIRMAN.

THAT'S WHAT WE WOULD LIKE.

WE WOULD LIKE REPARATIONS.

WE WOULD LIKE THOSE BICYCLE STOPS TO BE REMOVED OFF OF ALL

OF OUR NAMES.

WE WOULD LIKE THE CODE VIOLATIONS TO BE GONE, GONE WITH.

WE WOULD LIKE OUR YOUTH TO STOP BEING HARASSED BY THE

POLICE, DEFUNDING THE POLICE, DEFUNDING CODE ENFORCEMENT,

STUFF LIKE THAT.

WE WANT TO START SEEING SOME REAL ISSUES GET TALKED ABOUT.

WE DON'T WANT THESE ISSUES AND ALL THIS, FRATERNITIES,

SORORITY, AWARD, AWARD CEREMONY, COME INDICATIONS.

THAT'S NONSENSE.

STANDING PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG AND ALL OF THIS

OTHER STUFF.

THAT'S NONSENSE.

PRAYING TO GOD AND REPRESENTING CITY COUNCIL IN A CERTAIN

WAY.

THAT'S NONSENSE.

WE WANT TO SEE SOME REAL SENSE COME TO DISTRICT 5 AND WHAT'S




GOING ON INSIDE OUR AFRICAN COMMUNITY.

THOSE ARE THE THINGS WE WANT TONE SEE FROM OUR CHAIRMAN.

REPARATIONS, BICYCLE STOPS AND CODE ENFORCEMENT OFF THE

BACKS OF AFRICAN PEOPLE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

10:33:28 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, MR. DANIEL.

GOOD MORNING, SIR.

10:33:51 >> MY NAME IS VICTOR DIMAIO.

I LIVE AT 3112 NORTH ROME AVENUE.

I'M PRESIDENT OF TAMPA'S NEWEST NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION,

BEAUMONT HEIGHTS.

WE ARE -- OUR BORDERS ARE THAN THE COLUMBUS DRIVE TO THE

SOUTH, HILLSBOROUGH RIVER TO THE EAST, TAMPA BAY TO THE

NORTH AND HOWARD ARMENIA TO THE WEST.

I'M HERE TO SPEAK ABOUT ITEM 77 THAT WE WORKED FOR YEARS ON

NOW, IT SEEMS LIKE, WITH COUNCILMAN GUIDO MANISCALCO, FORMER

CHAIR, BECAUSE WE HAVE A REALLY, REALLY SERIOUS SITUATION

THAT WE.

BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT AND TPD, WITH

BUSINESSES WHO ARE PARKING THEIR COMMERCIAL VEHICLES IN THE

NEIGHBORHOOD.

OUR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION CONSULTED WITH SELF FORMER CITY

ATTORNEYS, AND THE WORDING THAT'S BEEN ON THE BOOKS FOR MANY

YEARS SAYING THE COMMERCIAL TRUCKS CANNOT PARK IN

NEIGHBORHOOD UNLESS THEY ARE A PLUMBER WHO LIVES THERE OR




ELECTRICIAN WORKING ON A HOUSE IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD, AND I

APPRECIATE COUNCILMAN MIRANDA REALIZING THAT WE DO HAVE A

VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM, AND IF YOU DO MOVE THIS LANGUAGE FROM

THE ONE SECTION IT'S CURRENTLY IN NOW TO ANOTHER SECTION,

WHICH WE FELT THAT CODE ENFORCEMENT AND TPD HAD THE RIGHT TO

WRITE TICKETS, IF THAT'S WHAT THE LEGAL EAGLES TELL US WE

HAVE TO DO, SO WE ARE BEGGING YOU TO PLEASE MOVE THAT

ORDINANCE SO THAT WE CAN HAVE SOME RELIEF, AND WE WON'T HAVE

ANY MORE EXCUSES FROM CODE ENFORCEMENT, AND TPD ON ACTING ON

THESE REALLY BAD ACTORS THAT TAKE ADVANTAGE IN WEST TAMPA

FOR MANY YEARS.

WE LET A LOT OF THINGS GOING AND LOOK THE OTHER WAY.

BUT WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AS NICE AS THE

PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN SOUTH TAMPA AND OTHER AREAS OF THE CITY.

SO PLEASE, ITEM NUMBER 77, WE WOULD LIKE TO NOT HAVE ANY

MORE DELAYS ON THIS.

WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT DONE, AND ENACTED SO WE CAN MOVE

FORWARD, AND HELP THE POLICE CLEAN UP OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

IF ANYBODY HAS ANY QUESTIONS, I WILL BE HERE WHEN THAT ITEM

COMES UP ON 77 AND WE CAN TALK MORE ABOUT THE SITUATION THAT

WE ARE IN AND HOW WE CAN HELP, NOT JUST OUR NEIGHBORHOOD BUT

THIS COULD APPLY IN THE ENTIRE CITY IF THIS SITUATION COMES

UP AGAIN.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I APPRECIATE IT.




10:36:16 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

10:36:20 >>JOHN GRANDOFF:
GOOD MORNING, MR. CHAIRMAN, MEMBERS OF

CITY COUNCIL.

BEFORE I MAKE MY COMMENTS, I WOULD LIKE TO GET SOME

CLARIFICATION FROM MR. SHELBY ON WHERE WE ARE PROCEDURALLY,

BECAUSE I WAS LATE IN ARRIVING, AND I HAVE MR. CARLSON'S

MEMORANDUM THAT THE ITEM BE CONTINUED FOR TWO WEEKS.

SO THIS IS SPEAKING ON A COULDN'T ANSWER OR SPEAKING ON THE

MERITS OF THE ORDINANCE?

10:37:11 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF THE ITEMS -- IT WAS DISCUSSED BRIEFLY,

MR. GRANDOFF, DURING THE APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA.

BUT FURTHER DISCUSSION AND ANY ACTION IF COUNCIL DOES CHOOSE

TO TAKE IT WILL BE TAKEN UP WITH ITEM NUMBER 8.

THE ANSWER IS YES, BOTH.

10:37:29 >>JOHN GRANDOFF:
WHY WOULDN'T WE SPEAK AT THE TIME THE ITEM

IS CALLED ON THE AGENDA?

10:37:35 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
BECAUSE THAT IS NOT SET FOR A PUBLIC

HEARING.

IT IS A LEGISLATIVE MATTER.

COUNCIL WILL BE TAKING UP CHANGES TO ITS RULES DOWN THE ROAD

VERY SHORTLY AND PERHAPS ALLOW THAT.

BUT AT THIS POINT IN TIME IT'S A LEGISLATIVE MATTER THAT IS

ON THE CONSENT DOCKET.

10:37:48 >>JOHN GRANDOFF:
SO GOING FORWARD, THE CONSIDERATION OF

THIS ORDINANCE WILL BE DONE BY COUNCIL, BUT PUBLIC COMMENT




WILL BE LIMITED TO ONLY THE PUBLIC COMMENT SECTION OF THE

AGENDA?

10:38:04 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
TODAY, YES.

IF IT MOVES ON FIRST READING IT WILL BE SETTLES FOR A SECOND

READING AND PUBLIC HEARING WHICH WILL BE AN ADDITIONAL

PUBLIC HEARING WITH TESTIMONY OR COMMENTS WILL BE TAKEN.

10:38:17 >>JOHN GRANDOFF:
SO AT THAT SECOND PUBLIC HEARING ASSUMING

THAT CURSE, THEN ANY COMMENT WOULD BE MADE AT THE TIME THE

ITEM IS CALLED ON THE AGENDA, NOT AT THE PUBLIC COMMENT

SECTION?

10:38:25 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YOU MEAN AT THE SECOND -- AT THE SECOND

READING.

COUNCIL, IF IT WISHES, IF IT WISHES TO OPEN UP PUBLIC

COMMENT FOR ITEM NUMBER 8 AND WISH TO WAIVE ITS RULES, CAN

DO SO.

IT CERTAINLY DOES HAVE THAT ABILITY IF IT CHOOSES.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY NOW, FRANKLY, MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT'S

THE NEXT ITEM, IS IT NOT, MR. CHAIR?

10:38:51 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE WILL DISCUSS THAT WITH NUMBER 8 BUT

RIGHT NOW CONTINUE WITH PUBLIC COMMENT AND DEAL WITH THE

REST OF IT AS IT COMES.

10:38:57 >>JOHN GRANDOFF:
I DON'T WANT TO BE ARGUING FORM OR

SUBSTANCE BUT EITHER WAY IT'S HEARD, MY TIME WOULD BE

LIMITED TO THREE MINUTES AND OTHER PARTIES AND THE PUBLIC

WOULD BE LIMITED TO THREE MINUTES AS LONG AS THEY WANT TO




SPEAK.

WHAT CONCERNS ME IS THE PUBLIC COMMENT TIME IS A FIXED TIME

AND THAT COULD LIMIT PUBLIC DISCOURSE ABOUT THE ORDINANCE.

I'M FINE BECAUSE I AM GOING TO SPEAK IN A MOMENT.

BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE --

10:39:22 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE NOW.

WE ARE GOING TO GIVE YOU YOUR TIME IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO

SPEAK TO NUMBER 8 IN PUBLIC COMMENT IF YOU WISH.

AND WE'LL CONTINUE AS WE GO.

10:39:31 >>JOHN GRANDOFF:
YES, SIR.

THANK YOU FOR THE DIRECTION.

I APPRECIATE IT.

MY NAME IS JOHN GRANDOFF, ADDRESS SUITE 3700 BANK OF AMERICA

PLAZA SPEAKING ON NUMBER 8, THE ORDINANCE ENTITLED THE

INTERIM DEVELOPMENT CONTROL ORDINANCE.

BEFORE DOING SO, I WANT TO CORRECT THINGS.

YOU WERE NOT IN A POSTURE OF A SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT

EVIDENCE WEIGHING PROCEDURE.

YOU ARE EXERCISING LEGISLATIVE ACTION.

YOU ARE THE LAWMAKERS OF THE CITY AND RIGHTLY SO.

THAT'S WHY YOU WERE ELECTED.

YOU HAVE BROAD DISCRETION IN PASSING THIS ORDINANCE, BROAD

POWER THAT CAN SOMETIMES BE ABUSED OR IMPROPERLY EXERCISED.

SO WHILE YOU HAVE BROAD DISCRETION IN EXERCISING YOUR

LEGISLATIVE POWER, I CAUTION YOU OF A COUPLE OF THINGS, AND




I THINK WHAT'S IMPORTANT IS THAT THERE ARE MANY CONTRACTS

THAT ARE PENDING AROUND THE CITY RIGHT NOW IN WHICH DEPOSIT

MONEY HAS GONE NONREFUNDABLE, SIGNIFICANT FUNDS, AND THE

FINAL CLOSING ON THOSE PURCHASE CONTRACTS DEPEND UPON DURING

THE DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD HOW MANY UNITS CAN BE DESIGNED ON

THE PROPERTY BASED UPON F.A.R.

AND THAT COULD BE 100 UNITS, AND BUT IF IT'S DESIGNED ON A

PER-UNIT BASIS, THAT COULD BE 70 UNITS.

AND I AM NOT ARGUE BEING THE 30, BUT I AM SAYING THAT YOU

HAVE CONTRACTS THAT DEPEND UPON UNIT COUNT, BASED UPON

F.A.R. AND PRO FORMAS THAT HAVE BEEN RUN.

ALL OF THIS GOES ASUNDER IF YOU TAKE OUT THE F.A.R. UNDER

THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RIGHT NOW.

THE SELLERS PRICE BECOMES ENDOWED.

THAT BECOMES NEGOTIATED, MAYBE, MAYBE NOT.

THE PURCHASER'S PRO FORMA IS DEFINITELY IN DOUBT.

HOW DO YOU RENEGOTIATE A CONTRACT ONCE THIS ORDINANCE

BECOMES EFFECTIVE?

IS THE CITY COUNCIL AFFECTING THE PRIVATE RIGHT OF

CONTRACTS?

THAT'S SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED IN YOUR

DISCRETION.

YOU ARE PLACING A CHILLING EFFECT ON COMMERCE WHEN THE

GOVERNMENT PROPOSES TO CONTROL THE SUPPLY OF PRIVATE

PROPERTY, ANYTIME, THE GOVERNMENT CONTROLS OR TRIES TO




CONTROL THE SUPPLY OF PRIVATE PROPERTY, SPECIFICALLY REAL

ESTATE, AND YOU CAN RUN ASUNDER OF THE CONSTITUTION,

ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO IT UNDER VAGUE AND SUBJECTIVE REASONS.

AND I SUBMIT TO YOU THIS ORDINANCE IS AN ANTI-APARTMENT

ORDINANCE DISGUISED AS SOME TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT CONTROL

ORDINANCE.

I THINK THE BETTER OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU IN YOUR DISCRETION IS

TO TAKE A SURGICAL KNIFE AND PLACE THIS ORDINANCE EXACTLY

WHERE YOU WANT IT IN THE CITY ON PARCELS WHICH DO NOT HAVE

APPROPRIATE MUNICIPAL SUPPORT SUCH AS STORMWATER, TRAFFIC

IMPROVEMENTS, RIGHTS OF WAY, CLEARLY THE WESTSHORE GANDY

AREA, MEETS THAT TEST.

HURRICANE PREPAREDNESS, BUT YBOR CITY, SEMINOLE HEIGHTS,

TAMPA HEIGHTS, TAMPA PALMS, DO THEY BEAR THOSE BURDENS THAT

ARE ALL UNIQUE TO DIFFERENT PORTIONS OF THE CITY?

I THINK IT'S BETTER TO GO ON A PARCEL BY PARCEL ANALYSIS OF

THOSE PROPERTIES THAT ARE AT RISK BECAUSE OF THESE DEFICIENT

MUNICIPAL SERVICES AND DOWN PLAY THOSE CAN TAKE THE F.A.R.

OUT.

10:42:43 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

I APPRECIATE IT.

10:42:45 >>JOHN GRANDOFF:
BUT TO DO IT CITY-WIDE I THINK IS A

SERIOUS ERROR AND WILL COMPROMISE COMMERCE FOR THE CITY.

10:42:51 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

10:42:52 >> CONNIE BURTON.




FIRST, I WILL SAY TO THE POINT FOR CLARIFICATION, SINCE

AROUND 1865 AND ON, PEOPLE STOP BEING OWNED.

I AM JUST HOPING THAT WE ARE JUST MAKING A MISSTEP BECAUSE

MEMBERS OF THIS DESIGN, YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT OUR

INTERESTS.

AND SO OWNERSHIP PART IN THAT YOU WOULD BE LISTENING, PAYING

ATTENTION TO THE ISSUES OF THE COMMUNITY AND MOVING SO

RESPECTFULLY THAT WE KNOW, WE WOULD KNOW THAT WE ARE GETTING

PROPER REPRESENTATION AS OPPOSED TO OWNERSHIP.

I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO STATE THAT IT'S VERY TROUBLING TO SEE

THIS MORNING AS WELL THAT EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE HAD

TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF WORKSHOPS, TALKING ABOUT THE SCORECARD

OF TAMPA, AND THE WAY IN WHICH WE CAN ADVANCE ALL TO MOVE

FORWARD, THAT COUNCILMAN CARLSON, YOU WASN'T ABLE TO ATTEND

THIS MORNING.

FROM COUNCILMAN GUDES RECEIVED A PROMOTION, BUT WHAT YOU

RECEIVED THIS MORNING IS YOUR BODY NOT HAVING CONFIDENCE.

AND THE REASON WHY THE CONFIDENCE IS LACKING IS BECAUSE OF

THE APPLICATION OF MAKING SURE THAT PEOPLE IN EAST TAMPA IS

TREATED FAIRLY, AND THAT WE ARE NOT FORGOTTEN.

THAT IS WHAT IT SPOKE TO ME THIS MORNING.

AND AS WE CONTINUE TO HEAR PEOPLE NOT WANTING CERTAIN THINGS

IN THEIR BACKYARD, THE EAST TAMPA COMMUNITY CONTINUES TO ASK

FOR THE VERY SAME THINGS OVER AND OVER WHETHER THEY ARE

SITTING UNDER A TREE, STANDING ON THE CORNER, IN THEIR




PRIVATE HOMES, LOOKING FOR WAYS IN WHICH EAST TAMPA CAN BE

BROUGHT UP TO A LIFESTYLE, THAT EVERYONE IN EAST TAMPA THAT

WANTS TO REMAIN IN EAST TAMPA CAN SEE VALUE AND DIGNITY IN

THEIR LIVES.

WE DON'T SEE IT.

27 SCHOOLS IS CRUMBLING OR FAILING.

HOUSES THAT A SIMPLE REHAB CAN CURE A LOT OF THESE ISSUES.

AND THEY KEEP ON GETTING PUSHED BACK BECAUSE IT'S NOT A

POLITICAL FAVOR TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

BUT WE ARE PAYING RING ATTENTION, AND IT IS VERY

DISAPPOINTING TO HEAR FORMER CHAIR TALK ABOUT HOW EAST TAMPA

IS STUCK IN TIME, AND THE MOMENT YOU CAN ACTIVATE IT, YOU

WON'T DO IT BECAUSE IT'S NOT TO YOUR POLITICAL ADVANTAGE.

WE ARE PAYING ATTENTION.

THANK YOU.

10:45:57 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, MS. BURTON.

MR. CARLSON, I WILL RECOGNIZE YOU BUT I HAVE TO SAY

SOMETHING, BUT I HAVE THE FLOOR, SIR.

10:46:10 >>BILL CARLSON:
MS. BURTON, THANK YOU FOR THAT.

I THINK THAT'S POSITIVE COMMENT IT L.

BUT I WANT YOU TO LEGALITY EVERYBODY KNOW I AM FINE NOT

BEING CHAIR.

I APPRECIATE THE NOMINATION.

BUT IT'S A LOT OF WORK AND A LOT OF STRESS AND I AM SURE

THAT CHAIR CITRO WILL DO A GREAT JOB, AND I APPRECIATE THE




VOTE OF CONFIDENCE BY THE VICE CHAIR AND STEPPING IN WHEN

HE'S NOT AROUND.

THANK YOU.

10:46:32 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

10:46:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MANISCALCO?

10:46:45 >> NO, YOU CAN SPEAK.

10:46:50 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IT'S TROUBLING WHEN I HEAR THAT THINGS ARE

NOT HAPPENING IN DISTRICT 5.

AND I DON'T BELIEVE THAT TO BE TRUE.

I BELIEVE THIS COUNCIL HAS DONE A LOT OF THINGS TO MOVE

DISTRICT 5.

IT MATE NOT BE TO THE TOTAL LIKING OF SOME.

10:47:05 >> NAME THEM.

10:47:08 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IT'S MY TIME, MS. BURTON.

10:47:12 >> NAME THEM.

10:47:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IT MAY NOT BE LIKING TO SOME BUT IT IS A

LIKING TO OTHERS.

BUT DISTRICT 5 HAS A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE.

AS YOU KNOW, THIS COUNCIL KNOWS THAT FROM DAY ONE, I PUT

TOGETHER HOUSES -- I HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT REHAB FROM DAY

ONE, TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A REHAB PROGRAM THAT'S

GETTING GEARED UP.

SO THINGS THAT ARE ADVOCATING, MS. BURTON, ARE BEING HEARD.

THIS IS GOVERNMENT.

SOMETIMES IT TAKES TIME.




SOMETIMES THIS COUNCIL GETS MOVE THAT IT DOESN'T MOVE AS

FAST.

WE GET FRUSTRATED AS WELL.

BUT I WANT TO ASSURE YOU AND EVERYONE IN DISTRICT 5 THAT

THIS COUNCILMAN IS WORKING EVERY DAY FOR DISTRICT 5.

I AM OUT THERE EVERY DAY, AND SO ARE MY COLLEAGUES, WHEN I

MAKE THESE MOTIONS TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.

THEY MAY SEEM TO MOVE A LITTLE SLOW BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU

THEY ARE MOVING AND WE ARE GOING TO GET THINGS MOVING ALONG

IN DISTRICT 5.

I CAN GIVE THAT YOU COMMITMENT TODAY, AND TO THOSE WHO ARE

LISTENING WHO R WHO MAY NOT UNDERSTAND SOME OF THE

PARAMETERS OF POLICY MAKING DECISIONS AS DEALS WITH

GOVERNMENT MONEY, AS DEALS WITH A LOT OF STAFFING, BUT I CAN

ASSURE YOU, AND I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND YOU'RE COMMENT

BUT WE ARE GOING TO MOVE AND YOU HAVE A BLESSED TODAY.

10:48:22 >> I CAN'T BE BLESSED UNTIL OUR COMMUNITY IS BLESSED.

THANK YOU.

10:48:26 >> GOOD MORNING.

10:49:14 >> GOOD MORNING.

10:49:15 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
STATE YOUR NAME.

10:49:25 >> MY NAME IS ANTONIO ALVAREZ.

10:49:29 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ARE YOU HERE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT, MA'AM?

10:49:39 >> INTERPRETER:


(SPEAKING SPANISH).




10:49:48 >> I AM HERE FOR AN INFRACTION.

10:49:51 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE ARE NOT HERE READY FOR ITEM NUMBER 67

YET.

10:49:56 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF I MAY, BECAUSE I BELIEVE STAFF HAS

NOTIFIED ME THAT THIS IS A REQUEST OF, I BELIEVE, AND WE CAN

CONFIRM THIS, TO WITHDRAW THAT, IF THAT IS IN FACT THE CASE,

THERE MAY BE AN OPPORTUNITY TO ADVANCE THAT TO ALLOW THIS

GENTS TO TAKE IT UP BECAUSE IT IS SET FOR 9:30 AND IT IS

AFTER 9:30.

WE CAN HOLD THIS ITEM AND THEN ADVANCE IT RATHER THAN HAVE

HIM WAIT UNTIL ALL THE WAY UP TO ITEM NUMBER 67.

WHAT NUMBER IS THE REVIEW HEARING?

10:50:32 >> ITEM NUMBER 67.

10:50:34 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
67.

I'M SORRY.

THAT'S 10:30.

10:50:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IS THERE A REQUEST TO WITHDRAW, MA'AM?

(SPEAKING SPANISH).

INTERPRETER: YES, I HAVE A PETITION TO TAKE OUT THE LITTLE

END.

(SPEAKING SPANISH).

INTERPRETER: AND SINCE 2020.

I ASK TO AMPLIFY THE DESIGN THAT I HAVE DONE FOR --

10:51:15 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IF WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO -- WE ARE

OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE NOT WITHDRAWING IT SO WE HAVE TO WAIT




UNTIL THAT HEARING.

WE'LL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THAT HEARING FOR ITEM NUMBER 67.

10:51:31 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
AND MAYBE IF STAFF IS LISTENING TO THIS

THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO ADVISE COUNCIL.

10:51:38 >>CAMARIA PETTIS-MACKLE:
CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

SO THE PETITIONER, MR. ALVAREZ, IS BEFORE CITY COUNCIL

REGARDING ITEM NUMBER 67, WHICH IS THE DE 1-21-17 FOR

PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2704 WEST KATHLEEN STREET.

IN PREPARATION FOR THIS PETITION FOR REVIEW HEARING IT WAS

BROUGHT TO THE CITY'S ATTENTION THAT THE PETITIONER IS

DEMOLISHING OR HAS 95% COMPLETE THE DEMOLITION REGARDING THE

STRUCTURES THAT ARE ON THE PROPERTY THAT IS THE BASIS FOR

THE DESIGN EXCEPTION.

CITY STAFF, I DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S ALREADY LOGGED ONTO THE

LINK FOR THIS ITEM, BUT THE CITY WAS INFORMED THIS MORNING

THAT THERE'S ONLY ONE WALL LEFT REMAINING THAT NEEDS TO BE

TAKEN DOWN FROM THE PETITIONER, BUT BASED ON THE INFORMATION

THAT WAS RECEIVED REGARDING THE STATUS OF THE SHED AND THE

DEMOLITION OF THE SHED --

10:52:46 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WHAT DOES STAFF WANT TO DO?

WE ARE NOT THERE YET.

WHAT DOES STAFF WANT TO DO WITH THIS?

WE ARE STILL IN PUBLIC COMMENT.

RIGHT NOW WE ARE STILL IN PUBLIC COMMENT.

WE ARE NOT AN ITEM 67 YET.




SO WE ARE ASKING WAS THE GENTLEMAN TRYING TO WITHDRAW, OR

ASK STAFF A CLARIFICATION?

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOUR PREFERENCE IS.

10:53:11 >>CAMARIA PETTIS-MACKLE:
THE PETITIONER COULD STATE WHETHER

OR NOT HE WANTS TO WITHDRAW THE PETITION FOR REVIEW HEARING.

10:53:16 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF THAT'S THE CASE, MR. CHAIRMAN, I

SUGGEST WE HOLD THIS UNTIL WE COMPLETE PUBLIC COMMENT, IF WE

WANT TO ADVANCE THIS THING, WE CAN DO SO, SO THEY CANNOT

HAVE TO STAY FOR THE, TO STAY ON TIME.

BUT THE PUBLIC HEARING HAS NOT BEEN OPENED.

10:53:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
CORRECT.

I THINK WE ARE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND JUST HOLD IT, MR.

SHELBY, IS YOUR ADVICE, 67, UNTIL WE OPEN THOSE PUBLIC

HEARINGS, CONTINUE WITH PUBLIC COMMENT.

10:53:48 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
AND YOU CAN ADVANCE IT, AGAIN, EVEN AHEAD

OF THE SECOND READINGS IF THAT'S COUNCIL'S PLEASURE, IT'S

AFTER 9:30.

IT'S AFTER 10:30. BUT IT'S NOT APPROPRIATE TO RESOLVE THIS

NOW DURING PUBLIC COMMENT.

10:54:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
CORRECT.

MA'AM, AFTER PUBLIC COMMENTS WE'LL DECIDE IF WE ARE GOING TO

OPEN IT UP AND BRING IT BACK FIRST.

AT THIS TIME WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE PUBLIC COMMENT.

IT WILL BE VERY SHORTLY.

YES, SIR, MR. MIRANDA.




10:54:22 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
SENOR?

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

10:54:30 >> OKAY, THANK YOU.

10:54:41 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, MR. MIRANDA.

WE'LL CONTINUE WITH PUBLIC COMMENT.

HOW MANY MORE DO WE HAVE DOWN THERE?

10:54:47 >>THE CLERK:
NO MORE SPEAKERS AT THIS TIME.

10:55:03 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

DEPUTY CLERK?

10:55:09 >> THE FIRST SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE ANDREW MOORE.

ANDREW, IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF AND

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

10:55:16 >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEWLY-ELECTED OFFICES.

I'M CONCERNED, I REPRESENT GOLD ON HEIGHTS DISTRICT, 1901 IN

BEAUMONT HEIGHTS AND THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE CIVIC

ASSOCIATION THERE.

WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS NEW -- AND WE ARE IN SUPPORT OF

THIS AGENDA ITEM 77, IS ALLOWING TPD TO GO AHEAD AND TICKET

SOME INFRACTIONS WITH COMMERCIAL EQUIPMENT, COMMERCIAL

VEHICLES PARKING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

FOR THREE YEARS, OUR NEIGHBORHOOD HAS LOBBIED CITY STAFF,

CITY COUNCIL, CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE, TO STOP THIS

COMMERCIAL PARKING THAT KEEPS HAPPENING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD

AND FOR THREE YEARS WE WERE TOLD, OH, CITY STAFF OR CODE




ENFORCEMENT CAN'T ENFORCE THIS ISSUE.

AND THEN IN TODAY'S AGENDA ITEM I READ THE REPORT FROM THE

CITY ATTORNEY THAT SAYS THAT THE CITY HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABLE

TO ENFORCE ON THIS, AND I AM CONCERNED THAT EVEN IF WE

ALLOWED TAMPA PD THAT WE ARE GOING TO GET A LACKADAISICAL

RESPONSE FROM BOTH CODE ENFORCEMENT AND TAMPA PD TO ENFORCE

ON THIS.

I ALWAYS WANT TO STATE THAT THE CODE IS VERY CLEAR THAT IT

HAS TO BE A -- WHEN COMMERCIAL VEHICLES COME INTO A

NEIGHBORHOOD THEY HAVE TO BE DOING WORK ON THE SAME

RESIDENTIAL LOT.

THE OPERATORS OF VEHICLES HAVE TO BE AT A JOB SITE OUR AT

THEIR HOME AND IT'S KNOW IT APPROPRIATE FOR THESE COMMERCIAL

VEHICLES TO JUST PARK IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND TO USE OUR

NEIGHBORHOOD AS PUBLIC PARKING FOR THEIR BUSINESSES.

THEY ARE EITHER AT A JOB SITE, NOR ARE THEY AT AN PRIORITIES

OF A VEHICLE'S HOME.

AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS.

I DO WANT COUNCIL TO PASS THIS ORDINANCE, AND I AM IN FAVOR

OF IT.

OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS IN FAVOR OF IT.

WE ARE JUST CONCERNED.

WE DON'T WANT TO JUST BE THAT CODE ENFORCEMENT PASSING THE

BUCK TO TPD AND IT GOES DOWN ANOTHER RABBIT HOLE OF

NONENFORCEMENT.




WE MET WITH OCEA WYNN IN THE PAST.

SHE'S AWARE OF OUR ISSUES.

WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO HER SEVERAL TIMES AND HEARD NO

RESPONSE ON THESE ISSUES.

WE WOULD LIKE OCEA TO REACH BACK OUT TO US AND CONTINUE TO

WORK WITH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD SO IT CAN BE PROPERLY ENFORCED ON

THE COMMERCIAL PARKING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

COUNCIL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME TODAY.

YOU MAY REMEMBER, I SENT YOU ALL AN E-MAIL A DUMB OF WEEKS

AGO THAT SHOWED PICTURES OF THIS ENFORCEMENT HAPPENING IN

OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE WE WERE HAVING COMMERCIAL VEHICLES.

IF THAT REFRESHES YOUR MEMORY, PLEASE LOOK AT THOSE E-MAILS

AGAIN AND YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THE PICTURES IN THERE WHERE WE

HAD COMMERCIAL VEHICLES PARKING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

THEY ARE NOT AT A JOB SITE AND NOT AT THE OPERATOR'S HOME

THAT ARE SPELLED OUT IN THE DEFINITION.

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR TIME.

WE APPRECIATE YOU HEARING OUR ISSUES.

10:58:22 >>THE CLERK:
THE NEXT SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE JEAN

STROHMEYER.

IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

JEAN, ARE YOU ON THE LINE?

10:58:53 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
LET'S GO TO THE NEXT CALLER AND THEN WE'LL

COME BACK.




10:59:02 >>THE CLERK:
THE NEXT SPEAKER IS CARROLL ANN BENNETT.

CAROL, IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

10:59:12 >> MY NAME IS CARROLL ANN BENNETT, A LIFE-LONG RESIDENT OF

SOUTH TAMPA.

FIRST I WANT TO COMMEND MR. MANISCALCO ON THE EXCELLENCE JOB

HE DID UNDER YOUR HELM, FRANKLY, AND I WANT TO SAY MR.

GUDES, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU BEFORE YOU WERE ELECTED, I HAVE NO

IDEA REALLY WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOU, BUT YOU HAVE PROVEN

THROUGH YOUR VOTING RECORD THAT YOU ARE UNASHAMEDLY AND

ADAMANTLY PRO NEIGHBORHOOD, AND THAT THE SAFETY OF THE

RESIDENTS OF THE CITY OF TAMPA IS YOUR NUMBER ONE CONCERN,

AND I AM VERY HAPPY THAT YOU ARE GOING TO BE THE CHAIR, AND

YOU CERTAINLY DESERVE THE POSITION.

I'M SPEAKING ON ITEM NUMBER 8.

I DO NOT WANT IT DELAYED.

THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON AND ON AND ON.

AND IT NEED TO BE RESOLVED TODAY.

AND FRANKLY, THE WHOLE SITUATION WITH THE BAR HAS JUST BEEN

COMPLETELY EXAGGERATED IN MY OPINION, MISREPRESENTED.

THIS ONLY AFFECTS A NARROW SLICE OF PROPERTIES.

IF THEY ALREADY HAVE THE ZONING THEY NEED, THEY JUST PULL

THE PERMITS.

IT ONLY AFFECTS IF IT'S SINGLE USE AND NOT MIXED USE.

THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE AREA, MR. MICHELINI SHOWED YOU, ISN'T




REALLY THE WHOLE PICTURE BECAUSE SO MANY OF THOSE PROPERTIES

WOULD NOT BE ACTUALLY AFFECTED.

IN ADDITION, ABBYE FEELEY TESTIFIED THAT THE F.A.R. IS NOT

BEING USED AS IT WAS INTENDED.

IT WAS INTENDED FOR NONRESIDENTIAL PROJECTS.

THE BONUS DENSITY IS FOR RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS.

AND NONE OF THESE DEVELOPMENT DEVELOPERS MENTIONED TO YOU

THE FACT THAT THEY GO STILL GET THE EXCESS DENSITY THEY WANT

AS LONG AS THEY USE BONUS DENSITY.

THE PROBLEM IS FOR THEM IS THE BONUS DENSITY REQUIRES THEM

TO PROVIDE THE CITY WITH FREE AMENITIES AND THAT'S GOING TO

COST THEM SOME MONEY, SO AS ABBEY STATED THEY ARE TRYING TO

DO AN END RUN AROUND PROVIDING THESE DENSITIES AND GET THE

BONUS DENSITY FOR FREE.

SO THERE'S A LOT OF DISINGENUOUS OBJECTION HERE.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT EVERYTHING WE WANTED.

LIKE I SAID, IT'S MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING AND I THINK THE

MAYOR SUPPORTS THIS.

THERE'S BEEN BACK AND FORTH ABOUT PENDING ORDINANCE, AND

ORDINANCE, A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME, AND WE WANT THIS EVEN

THOUGH IT'S FAR SHORT OF WHAT WE REALLY NEED.

WE HAVE A PROPERTY SOON HAS THE POTENTIAL OF PUTTING 4200

APARTMENT UNITS IF THEY USE F.A.R.

THAT IS MORE THAN DOUBLING THE CURRENT POPULATION OF

MULTIFAMILY UNITS IN THAT SMALL 4.5-ACRE AREA.




SO THE F.A.R. DOES HAVE AN EFFECT, AND IT'S BEING MISUSED.

I ASK YOU TO PLEASE APPROVE THE RESOLUTION.

11:02:24 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

11:02:24 >>THE CLERK:
WE ARE GOING TO GO BACK TO JEAN STROHMEYER.

IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

MS. STROHMEYER, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU ARE SELF-MUTED.

11:02:55 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
LET'S GO TO NUMBER 4 AND WE WILL GO BACK

TO MS. STROHMEYER.

11:03:00 >>THE CLERK:
THE NEXT SPEAKER IS STEPHANIE POYNOR.

PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:03:07 >> I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM S.IT MUST BE A TECHNICAL

ISSUE.

BUT SHE KNOWS AND SHE'S TRYING TO GET ON.

GOOD MORNING, GENTLEMEN.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW POSITIONS WITH TAMPA CITY

COUNCIL.

I ASK YOU TO INDULGE ME FOR JUST A MINUTE.

I HAVE A BROKEN LEG.

IT'S JUST TOO MUCH FOR ME TO COME DOWN THIS EARLY IN THE

MORNING.

I AM NOT ABLE TO PUT THE VISUAL ON PAPER, SO JUST FOR A

SECOND.




WEST OF DALE MABRY IS APPROXIMATELY 4.5 SQUARE MILES.

WRITE THIS DOWN.

THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART.

SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCES, 4350.

APARTMENTS SINCE 2016, 4,027.

11-14-19 WAS MY FIRST APPEARANCE WITH YOU FOR MY COMMUNITY,

538 DAYS AGO.

FROM 2016 UNTIL 11-14-2019, THERE WERE 2748 APARTMENTS

APPROVED IN OUR 4.5 SQUARE MILE AREA.

THAT'S 2.36 APARTMENTS PER DAY THAT HAVE BEEN ADDED TO OUR

COMMUNITY.

THAT'S 282 SQUARE UNITS PER SQUARE MILE.

THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HERE BEFORE THAT.

THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE ONES ON THE FUTURE AGENDAS, THE

ONES THAT THAT THE DEVELOPERS DON'T NEED TO BRING IN FRONT

OF YOU, THE ONES THAT HAVEN'T BEEN SUBMITTED YET.

WE STILL HAVE 1200 THAT ARE GOING TO OPEN UP THIS SUMMER.

SO WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE ONES WHO WERE SUBMITTED

BEFORE YOU GUYS EVER SAT IN THOSE SEATS WILL LOOK LIKE.

YOU TELL ME WHAT IT MEANS FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, FOR OUR

COMMUNITY, WHAT IT MEANS TO OUR CULTURE.

I HAVE TO AGREE WITH THE DEVELOPERS AND THE LAWYERS ON THIS

ONE.

WE NEVER WANTED THIS FOR THE ENTIRE CITY.

WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT SOG.




THAT'S THE ONLY AREA THAT WE ARE EXPERTS IN.

WE ACCORDING TO THE RULES PRESENTED ARE THE ONLY EXPERTS FOR

OUR COMMUNITY, SO I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE OTHER DESIGNATIONS

TO BE FOR THE CITY.

BUT I WANT TO KNOW WHY SOG, SOUTH OF EUCLID, WHATEVER YOU

WANT TO CALL IT, CAN'T HAVE ITS OWN DESIGNATION.

WE ARE A DEAD-END.

WE ARE SO UNIQUE.

WE ARE ABUTTING ARGUABLY ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DOD

FACILITIES OUTSIDE OF THE AREA WITH TWO FOUR STAR COMMANDS

WHICH EMPLOY 24,000 PEOPLE.

WE HAVE COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL USES THAT ARE SUPPLYING

FUEL AND CHEMICALS FOR OUR WATER FACILITIES, TO A LARGE PART

OF OUR REGION.

WE ARE A MAIN EVACUATION ROUTE FOR PINELLAS COUNTY.

YET WE ARE AREN'T CONSIDERED TO BE UNIQUE ENOUGH WITH FOCUS

ON US, NOT FOR THE ENTIRE CITY.

THE F.A.R. IS JUST A BOX OF 48 CRAYONS THAT THE DEVELOPERS

HAVE.

THEY STILL HAVE A WHITE CRAYON, A BLACK CRAYON, IN ADDITION

TO THE OTHER 45 COLORS.

THE F.A.R. SITUATION ONLY IMPACTS THREE DEVELOPMENT AREAS,

THE F.A.R. SITUATION DOESN'T IMPACT MR. CITRO'S BELOVED

MIXED REVIEW, THE F.A.R. SITUATION DOESN'T TAKE THE

DEVELOPERS ABILITY TO USE BONUS ABILITY, THE F.A.R.




SITUATION IS SO SMALL THAT WE DON'T EVEN LIKE IT, BUT WE

HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE.

PLEASE VOTE YES ON ITEM NUMBER 8 AND ALSO -- GO WITH GO

THANK YOU.

11:06:47 >> FOR THE PUBLIC SAFETY.

NUMBER 74.

THANK YOU.

11:06:50 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

11:06:51 >>THE CLERK:
THE NEXT SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE SHAUN BROWN.

IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF AND YOU HAVE

THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:06:58 >> GOOD MORNING, COUNCIL.

CAN EVERYONE HEAR ME?

11:07:04 >> YES.

11:07:06 >> IS THAT A YES?

11:07:09 >> YES, SIR.

11:07:09 >> FIRST OFF I WANT TO THANK COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO FOR YOUR

LEADERSHIP LAST YEAR.

IT WAS A YEAR FROM HELL.

AND COUNCILMAN GUDES, CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING ELECTED

CHAIRMAN, DEFINITELY WELL DESERVING AND IT HAS BEEN A

PLEASURE TO GET TO NONYOU DURING THIS TIME AS WE TALK ABOUT

VARIOUS ISSUES.

CERTAINLY I AM SPEAKING ON ITEM NUMBER 8.

AND FIRST OFF, I DO AGREE WITH THE OTHER STEPHANIE AND




CARROLL ANN AND THAT WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE A DELAY, WE WANT

THIS ISSUE SETTLED NOW.

IT'S BEEN FAR TOO LONG IN THE MAKING.

THAT BEING SAID, APRIL 12TH, THERE WAS A MEMO THAT CAME IN

AT THE APRIL 15th MEETING AND IN THAT MEMO IT SAYS THAT,

YOU KNOW, IN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT

CITY COUNCIL FORMALLY ADOPT THE ATTACHED DEVELOPMENT CONTROL

ORDINANCE, AND SO THE FACT IS THAT THE CITY, YOU KNOW, THE

CITY IS FOR THIS.

THE CITY HAS RECOGNIZED THE PROBLEM.

MS. FEELEY TESTIFIED ON APRIL 15th THAT F.A.R. IS BEING

ABUSED.

SHE REFERENCED A PROJECT THAT IS OUT THERE TRYING TO GO FROM

CMU-35, 35 UNITS PER ACRE LOOKING AT OVER 100 UNITS PER

ACRE.

AND FOR US, DOWN SOUTH OF GANDY, WE HAVE GOT POTENTIAL

36-ACRE PROPERTY THAT HAS BEEN SOLD TO A DEVELOPER AND THEY

CAN PUT IN ALMOST 4500 MULTIFAMILY APARTMENTS.

THEY CAN PUT 4500 APARTMENTS.

IF THEY USE THE F.A.R. UNDER THE CURRENT GUIDELINES.

THAT'S A PROBLEM.

AND SO IT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED.

IT'S TIME TO CLOSE THE LOOPHOLE THAT DEVELOPERS HAVE BEEN

ABLE TO USE.

THAT'S THE FACT.




THE FACT THEY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO USE THIS FOR FREE.

CLOSING A LOOPHOLE IS GOING TO COST THEM MONEY.

I GET IT NO ONE LIKES TO SPEND MONEY.

NO ONE LIKES TO LOSE MONEY. IN THEIR DAYS THEY WON'T LOSE

MONEY, THEY JUST HAVE TO SHELL OUT A LITTLE MORE.

THEY DESERVE A RIGHT TO HAVE MIXED USE AND THE THING IS THEY

CAN USE F.A.R.

THEY CAN USE F.A.R. IF THEY PAY EXTRA FOR BONUS DENSITY.

IT'S NOT GOING AWAY.

IT'S NOT STOPPING DEVELOPMENT.

THIS ISN'T A MORATORIUM.

NO DEVELOPMENT IS GOING TO GET STOPPED.

THE FACT IS THAT DEVELOPERS ARE WORRIED ABOUT LOSING A

LITTLE BIT OF EXTRA MONEY.

THAT'S ALL.

AND THAT'S JUST NOT FAIR.

THE CITY DESERVES MORE, AND IF THESE DEVELOPERS 2021 TRULY

PARTNER WITH US, THEN THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO INVEST AND

LISTEN TO THE RESIDENTS AND DO IT SMARTLY AND SAFELY.

AND ALL OF YOU SHOULD BE IN THAT AS WELL.

THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN.

I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.

BY THE WAY, I DO AGREE WITH THE IMPACT FEES.

ITEM NUMBER 54.

THANK YOU.




11:09:57 >>THE CLERK:
NEXT SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE DAVID MECHANIK.

DAVID, IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF AND

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:10:07 >>DAVID MECHANIK:
YES, SIR, MR. CHAIRMAN, COUNCIL MEMBERS.

MY NAME IS DAVID MECHANIK.

I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF VIPER VENTURES, WHICH IS A PROPERTY

OWNER ON RATTLESNAKE POINT, WHICH IS SOUTH OF GANDY.

I WOULD JUST LIKE TO POINTED OUT -- AND I WILL TRY TO BE

BRIEF AS WE DISCUSSED THESE ISSUES BEFORE -- BUT THERE IS

SIMPLY NO FINDING OF AN IMMEDIATE NEED TO IMPLEMENT THESE

REGULATIONS ON AN EMERGENCY BASIS, SO ON AN IMMEDIATE BASIS.

CITY COUNCIL ADOPTS NEW REGULATIONS ALL THE TIME, BUT IT IS

RARE, IF EVER, THAT COUNCIL IMPOSES THOSE REGULATIONS ON A

SHORT TERM BASIS WHERE YOU GO THROUGH TREMENDOUS PROFIT.

I THINK IT'S A VERY CONCERNING PRECEDENT FOR YOU TO DO

REGULATIONS WHERE YOU HAVE GONE THROUGH THE AMENDMENT

PROCESS.

I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THE REGULATION THAT IS

BEING PROPOSED TO GO INTO EFFECT ON JUNE 1st HASN'T HAD

THE FIRST HEARING BEFORE THE PLANNING COMMISSION OR CITY

COUNCIL, AND YET THE REGULATIONS THAT YOU INTEND TO IMPOSE

ON JUNE 1st AREN'T THE SAME LANGUAGE.

WHO IS TO KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THAT LANGUAGE WILL BE THE SAME

WHEN YOU BRING IT THROUGH THE PLAN AMENDMENT PROCESS?

THE WHOLE POINT OF HAVING HEARINGS FOR A PLAN AMENDMENT IS




TO HEAR FROM THE PUBLIC, AND TO GET INPUT, AND IT'S QUITE

LIKELY THAT YOU WILL BE MAKING CHANGES TO THAT LANGUAGE.

SO WHY WOULD YOU IMPOSE A REGULATION ON JUNE 1st WHEN

YOU.

GONE THROUGH ANY PROCESS TO CONSIDER THESE AMENDMENTS?

AND I WOULD JUST RESPECTFULLY SUGGEST, WHILE WE HAVE NO

CONCERN ADMINISTERING THE PLAN AMENDMENT, WE DO HAVE

CONCERNS WITH THE IDEA OF PUTTING THIS IN EFFECT ON JUNE

1st.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

11:12:24 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

11:12:27 >>THE CLERK:
NEXT SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE RANDY COEN.

IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:12:33 >>RANDY COEN:
I AM UNMUTED. I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THE

SCREEN TO PROVIDE AN EXHIBIT.

IS IT UP?

THANK YOU.

11:12:58 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE CAN'T SHOW THE VISUALS?

11:13:03 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
NOT REMOTELY, COUNCIL.

BUT IS HE LOGGED IN, MADAM CLERK?

11:13:07 >> YES.

11:13:08 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
ON VIDEO, I MEAN?

IF YOU LOGGED IN ON VIDEO ON GO-TO MEETING.

11:13:14 >> CAN YOU SEE THE SCREEN?




HELLO?

11:13:28 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YES, GO AHEAD.

11:13:32 >> I'M SORRY.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THIS IS AN EXHIBIT THAT WAS PREPARED FOR THE PLANNING -- BY

THE PLANNING COMMISSION ON BEHALF OF A REQUEST FROM THE

WESTSHORE ALLIANCE.

BUT YOU SEE THE PURPLE, THE PINK AND THE RED ARE ALL OF THE

LAND USE DESIGNATED PARCELS THAT WOULD BE AFFECTED BY THE

MORATORIUM.

I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THIS INCLUDES ALL OF KENNEDY

BOULEVARD TO THE EAST-WEST, NORTH, SOUTH, ALL OF KENNEDY

BOULEVARD, WATERS AVENUE, ALL OF BUSCH BOULEVARD, A GOOD

DEAL OF HOWLER AVENUE, A GOOD DEAL OF BUSCH BOULEVARD, I

ALREADY SAID THAT, FLORIDA AVENUE, ARMENIA, GREAT PORTIONS

OF DALE MABRY HIGHWAY.

BUT THEN THESE ROADS ARE BASICALLY ALL OF THE PRIMARY

TRANSIT CORRIDORS THAT THE CITY HAS ADOPTED AND HAS BROUGHT

THROUGH THE COMP PLAN TO INCREASE DENSITIES IN THESE AREAS

TO SUPPORT TRANSIT.

THE MORATORIUM AS PROPOSED WOULD RESULT IN ANY PARCEL BEING

REZONED ON ANY OF THESE CORRIDORS TO BE REDUCED IN THE

DEVELOPMENT BY 15% TO 50% OF THE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT.

I THINK THAT KIND OF FLIES IN THE FACE OF THE COMPREHENSIVE

PLAN AND IS INCONSISTENT.




I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THIS ACTION WOULD ALSO AFFECT

NEW TAMPA.

THIS IS THE CORE OF NEW TAMPA AND BRUCE B. DOWNS AND I-75.

WOULD RESTRICT SUCH DEVELOPMENT IN THAT AREA.

MOVING DOWN TO THIS AREA, YOU CAN SEE THAT VIRTUALLY ALL OF

YBOR CITY NORTH OF OR SOUTH OF 8th AVENUE WOULD BE

AFFECTED BY THIS MORATORIUM.

AS WOULD ROCKY POINT OUT IN THIS AREA WHICH IS VIRTUALLY ALL

AFFECTED BY THIS MORATORIUM.

WE ALSO HAVE THE FACT THAT, AS WE INDICATED BEFORE, TWO OF

THE DESIGNATED AREAS FOR DEVELOPMENT IN THE COMPREHENSIVE

PLAN BEING THE USF AREA AND THE WESTSHORE AREA ARE

SUBSTANTIALLY IMPACTED BY THIS PROPOSED MORATORIUM.

SO I WOULD RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT AS PROPOSED, THERE'S A

NUMBER OF INCIDENTAL IMPACTS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PARTICULAR

MORATORIUM PROPOSAL.

SO I WOULD HOPE THAT THIS IS CONTINUED, AND FURTHER WORK,

AND THAT THE FOCUS OF SOUTH OF GANDY OR SOMEWHERE IN THAT

AREA, THAT THIS MORATORIUM BE LIMITED TO THAT GEOGRAPHIC

AREA RATHER THAN BEING A SHOTGUN APPROACH WHICH EFFECTS

NUMEROUS PARCELS IN THE CITY OF TAMPA AND SUBSTANTIAL

IMPACTS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN EVALUATED, TO MY KNOWLEDGE.

AND THAT'S MY COMMENTS.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

11:16:26 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.




11:16:29 >>THE CLERK:
NEXT SPEAKER IS ELISE BATSEL.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:16:36 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
GO TO NUMBER 9 AND WE'LL CIRCLE BACK.

11:16:53 >>ELISE BATSEL:
GOOD MORNING.

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

I'M SORRY.

STEARNS WEAVER, MR. CHAIRMAN.

I AM HERE TO SPEAK ON AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 8.

THE MORATORIUM BEFORE YOU STARTED AS AN ATTEMPT TO ADDRESS

PERCEIVED PROBLEMS SUCH AS TRAFFIC AND OTHER ISSUES SOUTH OF

GANDY.

MANY OF US ENCOURAGED COUNCIL VERY EARLY IN THE PROCESS TO

LET STAFF DO ACTUAL STUDIES TO COME UP WITH DATA TO FORM

PROPER RESOLUTIONS TO ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES.

THIS COUNCIL DIRECTED THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT TO COME BACK TO

COUNCIL WITH A MORATORIUM.

AND IN A WAY WE HAVE BEEN ALL BEEN SPINNING OUR WHEELS EVER

SINCE.

THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO FOLLOW YOUR

INSTRUCTIONS AND TO PROVIDE YOU WITH A DEFENSIBLE ORDINANCE,

SO THE SOG ISSUE HAS NOW EVOLVED INTO A CITY-WIDE MORATORIUM

WITH SIGNIFICANT UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES.

AS MR. COEN STATED THE ORDINANCE BEFORE YOU WOULD ENCOURAGE

DEVELOPMENT IN THE AREAS WHEREBY WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE

DEVELOPMENT ALONG INTERSECTIONS AND TRANSIT CORRIDORS.




I WOULD -- I WOULD ENCOURAGE TO YOU VOTE ON THE CITY-WIDE

MORATORIUM UP OR DOWN TODAY.

IF IT DOESN'T PASS, AND STAFF COMES BACK TO YOU WITH A SOUTH

OF GANDY SOLUTION, YOU CAN CONSIDER THAT ORDINANCE AT THAT

TIME.

BUT IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO GIVE STAFF TIME TO CONDUCT

ACTUAL STUDIES AND FOR ACTUAL DATA TO DETERMINE HOW TO

PROPERLY ADDRESS THE SOG I SHALL YOU HAVE.

HOW CAN STAFF COME UP WITH SOLUTIONS TO THIS COUNCIL UNTIL

THEY ACTUALLY DO THE STUDIES THAT ARE NECESSARY?

I FEEL FAIRLY CONFIDENT THAT THEY ARE SPENDING MOST OF THEIR

TIME IN MULTIPLE VERSIONS OF THE MORATORIUM, SO THEY CAN'T

GET TO THE REAL WORK THAT THEY NEED TO DO TO REALLY COME UP

WITH SOLUTIONS FOR THE PEOPLE SOUTH OF GANDY.

THAT'S HOW IT ALL STARTED.

FOR EXAMPLE, YOU CAN'T PROPOSE A TRAFFIC SOLUTION UNTIL A

NEW SIGNALIZATION STUDY IS DONE AT THE GANDY --

PLEASE ALLOW STAFF THE TOOLS AND THE TIME TO DO THEIR JOB.

OTHERWISE, WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE BACK BEFORE THIS

COUNCIL TALKING ABOUT THE UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES OF ANOTHER

PROPOSAL THAT AREN'T BASED ON ACTUAL DATA AND ACTUAL

STUDIES.

I ENCOURAGE TO YOU VOTE NO TODAY ON THE CITY-WIDE MORATORIUM

AND TO WORK WITH STAFF TO COME BACK WITH A WELL STUDIED

PROPOSAL THAT ACTUALLY ADDRESSES ALL OF THE PROBLEMS AND




ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN SPOKEN ABOUT OVER AND OVER BY THE

COMMUNITY SOUTH OF GANDY.

THANK YOU.

11:19:30 >>THE CLERK:
THE NEXT SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE JACOB.

IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:19:38 >> THANK YOU.

THIS IS JAKE CREMER AT STEARNS WEAVER MILLER.

I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME THIS MORNING.

I WON'T REHASH WHAT THE PREVIOUS SPEAKERS HAD TO SAY ON THE

MORATORIUM.

I FEEL SIMILARLY THE TO MANY OF THEM.

INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, I FOUND MYSELF IN AGREEMENT WITH MANY

OF THE SOUTH OF GANDY COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT YOU HAVE HEARD

FROM WHO FROM WHAT I HEARD AGREE THAT THE DECISION NEEDED TO

BE MADE TODAY.

IT'S TIME TO VOTE UP OR DOWN ON THIS BAD PROPOSAL.

THIS ORDINANCE -- I ALSO AGREE WITH THE SOUTH OF GANDY

COMMUNITY THAT THIS PROPOSAL DOESN'T RECOGNIZE WHAT MAKES

SOUTH TAMPA AND SOUTH OF GANDY SO SPECIAL.

IT'S NOT FAIR TO THE REST OF THE CITY THAT ISSUES THAT WE

ARE WORKING THROUGH IN ONE PART OF THE CITY ARE NOW GOING TO

RESTRICT THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE ENTIRE CITY.

MR. COEN'S MAP WAS REALLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE WE HEAR A LOT

AND WE TALK A LOT ABOUT TRANSIT IN THIS COMMUNITY, BUT I CAN




PROMISE YOU, WE WILL NEVER GET REAL TRANSIT IN THIS

COMMUNITY IF WE DON'T SUPPORT DENSITY -- WE HAVE TO PUT ON

OUR BIG BOY PANTS AS A CITY AND BELIEVE IN GROWTH, AND

DENSITY WILL ACTUALLY HELP US GET THERE.

IT'S HARD, AND THERE WILL BE GROWING PAINS, BUT THIS IS NOT

THE RIGHT WAY TO GET THERE.

SO I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND ALL YOU DO FOR THE CITY.

CHAIRMAN, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ELECTION TODAY.

THANK YOU.

11:21:12 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

11:21:13 >>THE CLERK:
NEXT SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE JENNIFER

MOTSINGER.

JENNIFER, IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:21:20 >> THANK YOU.

GOOD MORNING.

JENNIFER MOTT SING WE ARE THE TAMPA BAY BUILDERS

ASSOCIATION.

REPRESENTING THOSE WHO BUILD THE AMERICAN DREAM OF HOME

OWNERSHIP.

WHENEVER COMMUNITIES EXPERIENCE GROWTH IT'S ALWAYS -- WE

HAVE SEEN THE AREA SOUTH OF GANDY AROUND WESTSHORE GROW VERY

QUICKLY.

ALL THAT THOUGH THAT IS TYPICAL, COUNTY BE FRUSTRATING

ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IN THAT AREA.




I AGREE WITH A LOT OF THE SPEAKERS THAT MORE ATTENTION CAN

BE FOCUSED ON BRINGING TRANSPORTATION AND OTHER

INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS ONLINE.

HOWEVER, I AGAIN OPPOSE ANY TYPE OF MORATORIUM.

A MORATORIUM SIGNALS TO MANY SEGMENTS OF OUR COMMUNITY AND

SOCIETY THAT WE CAN'T HANDLE GROWTH.

I DON'T THINK THAT'S TRUE.

IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT DISCUSSION, AND I AM GLAD THAT YOU ARE

CONSIDERING ALL THE PERSPECTIVES BEFORE TAKING FINAL ACTION

AND I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME THIS MORNING AND I HOPE YOU ALL

VERY WELL.

THANK YOU.

11:22:19 >>THE CLERK:
THE LAST SPEAKER IS GOING TO BE JEAN

STROHMEYER.

IF YOU ARE ON THE LINE, PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

11:22:26 >> OKAY. CAN YOU HEAR ME THIS TIME?

11:22:30 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE CAN HEAR YOU.

11:22:31 >> THANK GOD.

I WANT TO ALSO CONGRATULATE COUNCILMAN GUDES IN YOUR

APPOINTMENT AND TO THANK MR. MANISCALCO FOR HIS SERVICES IN

THE PAST, AND TO CLARIFY THAT THE F.A.R. IS A PRIVILEGE AND

NOT A RIGHT, AND OUR FIGHT IS NOT WITH THE MAYOR BUT ONLY

FOR EVACUATION AND TRAFFIC. I WANT TO CLARIFY THOSE MATTERS

AND I AM READY TO GO.




MY NAME IS JEAN STROHMEYER.

AND I AM PRESIDENT OF INTERBAY SOUTH OF GANDY ASSOCIATION,

ITEM NUMBER 8.

AS A CITIZEN, I THOUGHT OUR MEETING ON 3-26, WE HAD AN

AGREEMENT AS A RESULT OF OUR SUMMIT MEETING WITH

APPROXIMATELY 29 PEOPLE INCLUDING OUR GREAT SOG NEIGHBORHOOD

LEADERS, CITY ATTORNEY, CHIEF OF STAFF BENNETT, AS WELL AS

MAYOR CASTOR, AND OUR BUILDER AND CHIEF DEVELOP, JOHN, WHO

HAS BEEN ON THE OPPOSING SIDE OF THE TABLE SINCE DAY ONE.

NOTHING AGAINST PROGRESS BUT IT'S GOOD.

IT'S NOT GOOD WHILE BEATING CITIZENS INTO SUBMISSION.

OUR GOAL HAS OVERBUILDING STOCK FROM MEGA APARTMENT

COMPLEXES SOUTH OF GANDY, REALLY LET THE DUST SETTLES.

WE WERE TOLD THIS WAS NOT LEGAL BECAUSE WE COULD NOT SINGLE

OUT OURSELVES AND NOT OTHER PARTS OF THE CITY.

IT MAKES NO SENSE.

WE ARE THE SAME BODY WITH DIFFERENT LIMBS.

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY DID IT AND SO DID OTHER PLACES.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE AS OF TUESDAY WE THOUGHT WE HAD AN

AGREEMENT, AND THE ONLY REASON TO SPEAK TODAY WAS TO TELL

OUR CITY LEADERS A JOB WELL DONE.

THEN ON WEDNESDAY WE FOUND OUT WE DIDN'T HAVE A DEAL.

WE WERE DUMBFOUNDED, AS AN AMATEUR I AM IGNORANT IN LAND

USE, AND IT APPEARS THERE ARE DIFFERENT WAYS TO REACH THE

GAME SOLES WE ARE WORKING ON.




NUMBER ONE IS THE MOTION SUBMITTED BY MR. DINGFELDER, ON OUR

BEHALF FOR A MORATORIUM WHICH TURNED INTO LAND USE STUDY

THAT WOULD TAKE EFFECT FIRST WITH A PERMANENT SOLUTION BEING

TAKEN UNDERWAY.

THIS WOULD PRESUMABLY CAST ANY STRAY REQUESTS OF ZONING.

NUMBER TWO, WE HAVE THE CITY VERSION WHICH IS ALSO

CONSIDERED WILL BE A PERMANENT SOLUTION BY THE PROCESS OF

CHANGING THE COMP PLAN TO ELIMINATE F.A.R. BUT USING THE

PENDING ORDINANCE.

EITHER WAY, OUR GOALS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD,

SOUTH OF GANDY, NOT CITY-WIDE ELIMINATION OR ELIMINATION OF

F.A.R. BUT OTHER PERSISTENT AND SYSTEM HE'S THE ITEM I CAN

PROBLEMS SINCE 2007 WITH LACK OF ROADS, GAS STATIONS,

RETAILS AND JOBS BUT THE MOST IMPORTANTLY SAFETY IN VEGAS

EVACUATION DURING AN EMERGENCY.

SHOWS WITH THE CURRENT POPULATION PEOPLE WOULD DROWN IN

THEIR CARS WHILE TRYING TO EVACUATE DURING A MERE CATEGORY

ONE STORM SURGE.

GENTLEMEN, IT IS TIME TO VOTE FOR OR AGAINST OUR

NEIGHBORHOOD.

THANK YOU.

11:25:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

THAT CONCLUDES PUBLIC COMMENT.

11:25:44 >>THE CLERK:
YES, CHAIR THAT DOES CONCLUDE GENERAL COMMENT

FOR THE AGENDA.




11:25:51 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THE GENTLEMEN FOR THE HEARING, GOING TO

MOVE TO WITHDRAW.

GENTLEMAN AND THE INTERPRETER BACK ON.

11:26:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

11:26:42 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
AND IF WE CAN BEGIN, MR. CHAIRMAN, BY

SWEARING THE INTERPRETER, TO SWEAR -- IN SPANISH, PLEASE,

MADAM CLERK.

11:27:06 >>THE CLERK:
PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND.

DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THAT THE TESTIMONY THAT YOU ARE ABOUT

TO GIVE IS THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH?

(SPEAKING SPANISH)

I SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH.

INTERPRETER NEEDS TO BE SWORN IN AS WELL.

11:27:29 >>MARTIN SHELBY:





11:27:32 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YES.

11:27:35 >>THE CLERK:
PLEASE SWEAR OR AFFIRM THAT THE TRANSLATION

YOU ARE ABOUT TO PROVIDE IS THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE

TRUTH?

11:27:40 >> I DO.

11:27:41 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF WE CAN HAVE YOUR NAMES FOR THE RECORD.

11:27:43 >> NICOLE HIGH LAND, CERTIFIED COURT INTERPRETER.

MY NAME IS ANTONIO ALVAREZ.

11:27:54 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.

I BELIEVE THERE'S A REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE LEGAL

DEPARTMENT?

I BELIEVE SHE'S ON LINE.

11:28:00 >>CAMARIA PETTIS-MACKLE:
CITY ATTORNEY'S' OFFICE.

WE ARE HERE TO ADDRESS THE PETITION FOR REVIEW REGARDING

ITEM NUMBER 67 WHICH IS DE 1-21-17 FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT

2704 WEST KATHLEEN STREET, THE PETITIONER IS MR. ALVAREZ,

AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THROUGH THE INTERPRETER HE IS

GOING TO REQUEST TO WITHDRAW THE REVIEW.

INTERPRETER: YES, I COME TO WITHDRAW MY PETITION.

11:28:38 >> MOTION TO WITHDRAW.

11:28:46 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF WE CAN, CAN WE SEE THEM OH ONLINE?

I DON'T SEE THEM.

11:28:51 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
QUESTION ON THE MOTION.

11:28:54 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

11:28:56 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
JUST SO EVERYBODY IS ON THE SAME PAGE,




DOES HE WANT WITHDRAWN COMPLETELY, OR IS HE LOOKING TO

CONTINUE IT?

INTERPRETER: NO.

TO COMPLETELY WITHDRAW IT.

11:29:10 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
MOTION TO WITHDRAW IT THEN.

11:29:13 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
MOVE TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

11:29:18 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
DOES THE CITY HAVE ANY OBJECTION TO

THIS?

11:29:20 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THAT'S A FAIR QUESTION, MR. MIRANDA.

THANK YOU.

11:29:23 >>CAMARIA PETTIS-MACKLE:
CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

NO, MR. COUNCILMAN, THE CITY DOES NOT OBJECT TO THE

PETITIONER WITHDRAWING THE PETITION FOR REVIEW.

11:29:31 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
UPON EXAMINATION OF THIS ADDRESS AT 3704

WEST KATHLEEN WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT IMPROPER BUILDING

BEING BUILT WITHOUT A PERMIT?

THERE WAS NOTHING CONCERNING RENTAL PROPERTY OR ANYTHING OF

THAT NATURE?

11:29:47 >>CAMARIA PETTIS-MACKLE:
THAT'S CORRECT.

THIS IS ONLY REGARDING STRUCTURES THAT ARE ON THE PROPERTY

THAT WERE BUILT WITHOUT A PERMIT.

11:29:55 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
DOES THE CITY WHEN THESE CASES COME UP,

AND NOT SPECIFICALLY ASKING THIS QUESTION ON THIS ADDRESS,

DO YOU ASK THOSE QUESTIONS TO THE INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE

COMING BEFORE US?




DO THEY HAVE ANY RENTAL PROPERTY THAT'S ILLEGAL?

11:30:06 >>CAMARIA PETTIS-MACKLE:
MR. COUNCILMAN, TO THE BEST OF MY

KNOWLEDGE, I AM NOT SURE.

I AM NOT AWARE OF THAT QUESTION IS ASKED.

COMING FORWARD WITH THE DESIGN EXCEPTION.

11:30:20 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THANK YOU.

11:30:22 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION TO CLOSE BY MANISCALCO, SECOND BY

CITRO.

11:30:26 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
MOTION TO ACCEPT THE WITHDRAWAL AS

REQUESTED BY THE PETITIONER.

11:30:32 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MANISCALCO, SECOND BY MR. CITRO.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIES.

THANK YOU.

11:30:41 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

11:30:42 >>INTERPRETER:
THANK YOU.

11:30:47 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE GO BACK TO ITEM NUMBER 8.

11:30:49 >>BILL CARLSON:
DO I MAKE MY MOTION?

LET'S HEAR FROM STAFF AND THEN GO INTO DISCUSSION AND ANY

MOTION THAT NEEDS TO BE MADE.

11:31:13 >>BILL CARLSON:
I WANT TO MAKE A MOTION TO CONTINUE IT.

11:31:17 >>CAROLE POST:
THIS IS CAROLE POST, ADMINISTRATOR FOR

DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY.

I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO THE CONTINUANCE.




I WOULD FIRST LIKE TO ALSO CONGRATULATE YOU ON YOUR

APPOINTMENT AND ALL OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS ON THEIR

RESPECTIVE APPOINTMENTS, AND OF COURSE CHAIR MANISCALCO,

THANK YOU FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP OF THE PAST YEAR.

AS I SAID, I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO THE REQUEST FOR

CONTINUANCE OF THE ITEM FIRST.

WE DO HAVE STAFF MEMBERS AVAILABLE AS WELL, THE SUBSTANCE OF

THE ITEM, SHOULD IT NOT BE CONTINUED.

THE MATTER BUFF, AND HAS BEEN ADDRESSED, I THINK ALL OF YOU

RECOGNIZED, SUBSTANTIALLY BEFORE COUNCIL, BEEN BEFORE

COUNCIL SIX TIMES.

TODAY IS THE 7th TIME THAT THIS MATTER IS COMING BEFORE

COUNCIL IN ONE FORM OR ANOTHER.

THROUGHOUT THIS TIME, THERE WERE MANY DISCUSSIONS WITH

STAFF, SOUTH OF GANDY STAKEHOLDERS, RESIDENTS, WE ALSO MET

WITH DEVELOPERS MANY TIMES, AND ON MARCH 26th, ONE OF

THOSE TIMES, IT WAS AN ALL-HANDS TYPE MEETING, AS I HEARD

OTHERS REFER TO IT AS THE TOWN HALL MEETING, MAYOR CASTOR,

CHAIR GUDES, I THINK SOMEWHAT AT YOUR SUGGESTION IN MARCH.

AT THE DISCUSSION ON MARCH 26, THIS DISCUSSION ACTUALLY

RESULTED IN AN ALTERNATE APPROACH WHICH WAS A PERMANENT

SOLUTION TO THE F.A.R. ISSUE, DEALING WITH THE MORATORIUM.

AND THAT PROPOSAL AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE MORATORIUM WAS

PRESENTED TO COUNCIL ON APRIL 1st.

ON APRIL 1st, STAFF PRESENTED AND RECOMMENDED THAT




ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION, WHICH WAS TO -- COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

ENDMENT, PERMANENTLY ADDRESSED THE F.A.R.

ON THAT DAY, COUNCIL UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTED THE RESOLUTION, AND

THAT PROCESS IS NOW UNDERWAY.

THE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT IN PROCESS WITH THE PLANNING

COMMISSION.

BUT ALSO ON THAT DAY, AFTER ADOPTION OF THAT COMP PLAN

RESOLUTION, COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER AGAIN ASKED TO BRING

FORWARD AN INTERIM DEVELOPMENT CONSULTANT, WHICH WE HEARD

REFERRED TO AS A NONMORATORIUM-MORATORIUM.

I DO WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT THAT MOTION IS AND REMAINS

SEPARATE AND APART FROM THE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT RESOLUTION

ADOPTED THAT DAY TO REMAIN UNDERWAY.

BUT APRIL 15th, IN RESPONSE TO THE INTERIM DEVELOPMENT

CONTROL ORDINANCE REQUEST, STAFF RETURNED TO COUNCIL WITH A

DRAFT OF THAT ORDINANCE FOR DISCUSSION, AND COUNCIL THAT DAY

VOTED FOR STAFF TO BRING IT BACK IN A FORMAT FOR FIRST

READING, WHICH IS WHAT'S BEFORE YOU TODAY.

THAT ORDINANCE HAS BEEN SENT TO COUNCIL AS REQUESTED.

I WOULD LIKE TO NOTE, THOUGH, THAT THERE ARE NO FURTHER

DISCUSSIONS PLANNED WITH THE COMMUNITY OR ANY OTHER

STAKEHOLDERS EITHER PLANNED OR ANTICIPATED ON THIS

PARTICULAR MATTER.

I BELIEVE THE MEETING THAT COUNCILMAN CARLSON REFERRED TO

EARLIER THIS MORNING IS A STAFF AND COMMUNITY MEETING AS A




FOLLOW-UP THAT WAS DISCUSSED DURING THE MARCH TOWN HALL.

AT THAT TOWN HALL MEETING, THE MAYOR COMMITTED FOR STAFF TO

HAVE CONTINUING FOLLOW-UP ON A NUMBER OF RELATED MATTERS,

THAT JEAN TALKED ABOUT, TRANSPORTATION PLANNING, GENERAL

GROWTH MANAGEMENT, AND EVACUATION RESPONSE.

AND AS SUCH, THOSE ARE BEING PLANNED.

THE ONE IN QUESTION IS ACTUALLY SCHEDULED FOR APRIL 15th

AND REITERATE THAT IS NOT A MEETING TO DISCUSS THE

MORATORIUM OR ANY OTHER SOLUTION RELATED INTERIM

DEVELOPMENT.

TO CONCLUDE, WE ARE NOT FOR THE CONSEQUENCE ANSWER OF THIS

MATTER TODAY.

WE PREFER TO CONCLUDE THE MATTER WITH CERTAINTY ONE WAY OR

ANOTHER TODAY.

WE DO BELIEVE THAT THE PLAN WE AGREED TO WITH THE COMMUNITY

AND WITH COUNCIL SUPPORT TO INITIATE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

ENDMENT SERVES AS OUR STRATEGIC AND CONCLUSIVE APPROACH TO

CITY PLANNING, THE APPROPRIATE METHOD TO ADDRESS THE F.A.R.

ISSUE.

AND IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT IT IS JUST ONE OF MANY EFFORTS

THAT ARE UNDERWAY TO ADDRESS RELATED GROWTH MANAGEMENT

MATTERS.

I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS.

11:36:27 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THIS IS A HOT TOPIC.

BEFORE I TAKE ANY MOTION, I WANT TO GO WITH DISCUSSIONS




FIRST, AND AFTER DISCUSSIONS WE'LL DEAL WITH THE MOTION.

SO I THINK MR. CARLSON WAS FIRST.

I SAW HIS HAND.

AND MR. DINGFELDER.

AND MR. CITRO.

MR. VIERA.

11:36:47 >>BILL CARLSON:
JUST IN TERMS OF COMMENTS, AS MS. POST

SAID, ALTHOUGH THE MEETING NEXT FRIDAY MAY HAVE BEEN SET UP

FOR SOME OTHER PURPOSE, I AM CERTAIN THAT SOG LEADERS WILL

TALK ABOUT THESE ISSUES.

JUST TO CORRECT THE RECORD, WE SAID, I THINK, PRETTY

ADAMANTLY WE DID NOT WANT A MORATORIUM, WHATEVER THE LEGAL

TERM IS.

SAID WE DIDN'T WANT A MORATORIUM.

THEN STAFF CAME BACK WITH THIS NARROW VIEW, AND THEN

SOMEBODY IN THE COMMUNITY IS PUSHING THE IDEA OF MORATORIUM.

AND IT APPEARS TO BE FROM THE COMMENT THIS MORNING THE

DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY THAT'S DOING IT.

BUT YET IT'S THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY THAT'S SAYING WE

DON'T WANT THE WORD MORATORIUM TO GET OUT BECAUSE THE LARGER

INVESTMENT COMMUNITY IN THE COUNTRY IS NOT GOING TO WANT TO

INVEST IN TAMPA BECAUSE OF IT SO THE EASY SOLUTION IS TO

STOP TALKING ABOUT IT.

IF YOU WANT TO SCARE INVESTORS OFF, TALK ABOUT PUT A LABEL

ON SOMETHING THAT ISN'T ACCURATE, OR ISN'T EXACTLY ACCURATE.




NUMBER TWO, THE SOUTH OF GANDY LEADERS WHO I HAVE MET WITH,

MANY, MANY TIMES, AND I AM SURE YOU ALL DO, I TALK TO THEM

ALMOST DAILY, THEY NEVER ASKED FOR A CITY-WIDE THING.

THEY EVEN SAID AGAIN THIS MORNING THEY DOESN'T WANT A

CITY-WIDE SOLUTION.

AND WE HAVE TWO DIFFERENT ISSUES COMING UP.

ONE IS THE LONG-TERM COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT BUT THIS

ONE IS AN ORDINANCE THAT PUTS IT INTO EFFECT IMMEDIATELY.

YES, I THINK MR. DINGFELDER IS THE ONE WHO MADE THE MOTION

ON THIS.

SO TECHNICALLY, YES, IT IS A REQUEST OF COUNCIL, BUT WHAT

COUNCIL ASKED FOR ORIGINALLY AND WHAT THE COMMUNITY ASKED

FOR ORIGINALLY WAS A SOUTH OF GANDY SOLUTION.

AND THIS IS THE PROPOSAL THAT WE GOT.

NONE OF US TO MY KNOWLEDGE HAD EVER SAID WE WANT TO BE

TAKE -- WE WANTED TO TAKE AWAY THE F.A.R. BONUS.

AND WE ALSO DID NOT -- SO PUT ALL THE EXCEPTIONS AND

EVERYTHING.

THAT CAME FROM STAFF.

THE QUESTION THAT I POSED TO STAFF MANY TIMES OVER THE LAST

YEAR, REALLY, IS WHAT COULD BE THE SOLUTION?

I'M NOT A LAWYER.

I'M NOT A LAND USE LAWYER.

I TALK TO A BUNCH OF THEM I.DOWNTOWN KNOW WHAT THE POSSIBLE

SOLUTIONS EVER R.




THE COMMUNITY HAS GIVEN US IDEAS.

I TALKED TO LAND USE ATTORNEYS WHO GIVE IDEAS TO US.

AND I HAVE HAD THREE OR FOUR LAND USE ATTORNEYS CALL ME THE

LAST TWO DAYS AND SAY THERE ARE SOUTH OF GANDY OPTIONS, WHY

IS STAFF NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THEM? I HAD A CONVERSATION

WITH LEGAL YESTERDAY AND IS HE SHE HAD THEY LOOKED AT THEM.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S TRUE AND WATTS WHAT'S NOT BUT THERE

SEEMS TO BE A SOUTH OF GANDY SOLUTION THAT'S POSSIBLE THAT

WOULD MORE DIRECTLY ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF SOUTH GANDY.

THEY ARE NOT HAPPY AS I SAID WITH THIS SOLUTION ANYWAY.

THE PEOPLE IN THE REST OF THE CITY ARE NOT HAPPY WITH IT.

AND I THINK SINCE THERE IS A MEETING COM COMING OUT FRIDAY I

THINK WE SHOULD GO AHEAD AND DELAY IT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS

TO LOOK AT THAT.

I AM VERY FRUSTRATED BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF HE SAID SHE

SAID AROUND THIS AND IT SEEMS TO BE TOO POLITICAL.

AND I AM ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT DIRECTIONS I HAVE SEEN THE

LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS IN RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN COUNCIL AND

STAFF AS BECOMING MORE POLITICAL.

AND I ASKED CHIEF OF STAFF IF WE COULD GO BACK TO THE

COLLEGIAL ENVIRONMENT.

MAYBE YOU ALL HAVE NOT SENSED THIS.

BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT CITY COUNCIL DID NOT PROPOSE.

WE MAY END UP APPROVING IT TODAY.

BUT WHAT WE ASKED FOR AND WHAT THE COMMUNITY ASKED FOR IS A




SOUTH OF GANDY SOLUTION THAT WILL FIX THE SOUTH OF GANDY

PROBLEMS.

THANK YOU.

11:40:17 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER.

11:40:18 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

A GOOD ANALYSIS OF WHERE WE HAVE BEEN.

I DON'T NECESSARILY AGREE WITH MS. POST IN TERMS OF HOW WE

GOT TO WHERE WE ARE TODAY BUT I AM NOT GOING TO, YOU KNOW,

YOU KNOW, IT'S ALL HINDSIGHT, WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE AND I

NOT GOING TO GO THERE.

WE ARE WHERE WE ARE.

I DO AGREE WITH WHAT MR. CARLSON SAID, THAT THIS HOLISTIC

CITY-WIDE APPROACH IS NOT NECESSARILY WHAT COUNCIL HAD ASKED

FOR.

THIS IS WHERE WE HAVE BEEN SORT OF PUSHED IN A DIRECTION,

AND I HAVE CALLED IT A POISON PILL, BECAUSE I THINK IT IS A

POISON PILL THAT'S BEEN GIVEN TO US, AND THAT WAS PROVEN TO

ME TODAY WHEN DEVELOPERS SAY, GO AHEAD AND VOTE IT UP OH ARE

DOWN.

WELL, GUESS WHAT, THEY ARE COUNTING HEADS.

WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO COUNT HEADS.

BUT THEY ARE COUNTING HEADS.

AND THEY COUNTED HEAD, THEY MADE THEIR PHONE CALLS AROUND

THIS DAIS.

THEY DON'T CALL ME BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHERE I STAND.




BUT THEY CALLED AROUND THIS DAIS AND THEY COUNTED HEADS.

BUT THAT'S IRRELEVANT.

WHAT'S MORE RELEVANT IS WHAT I HAVE GIVEN YOU TODAY.

AND I PROVIDED THIS DOCUMENT TO ALL COUNCIL MEMBERS, MR.

SHELBY, THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE RECEIVED IT THIS MORNING

BY MR. GARRETT AND THE CLERK HAS A COPY.

AND WHAT THIS ONE-PAGE DOCUMENT SPEAKS TO IS THIS IS

DIRECTLY OUT OF OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

AND I HOPE EVERYBODY GOT A COPY OF IT AND LOOKED AT IT.

AND SPECIFICALLY, I LOOK OVER TO THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE IN THE

YELLOW AREA, AND IT SAYS THE FOLLOWING ROAD CORRIDORS HAVE A

SERIES OF MIXED USES ALONG THEM.

AND THEN IT SPEAKS TO ALL THOSE HIGHWAYS AND MAJOR ROADS

THROUGHOUT OUR CITY THAT RANDY COEN SPOKE TO.

DALE MABRY, GANDY, ARMENIA, HOWARD, FLORIDA, NEBRASKA, MLK,

COLUMBUS, 40th, 50th, ADAMO, PART OF ADAMO, BUSCH

BOULEVARD, HILLSBOROUGH, FOWLER, FLETCHER, BRUCE B. DOWNS,

KENNEDY, WESTSHORE, WESTSHORE NORTH OF KENNEDY BOULEVARD.

AND THEN THE NEXT LINE IS CRITICAL.

THESE ROADWAYS ARE TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS AND ARE

SUITABLE FOR REDEVELOPMENT AND INTENSIFICATION.

THAT'S WHAT THE USE OF THE F.A.R. IS.

THE USE.

F.A.R. IS INTENSIFICATION OF DEVELOPMENT.

SO WHY DO D I GIVE YOU THIS?




OKAY, I GAVE YOU THIS SO WE CAN MODIFY THE ORDINANCE, AND I

GAVE YOU A COPY OF THE ORDINANCE, SO WE CAN MODIFY THE

ORDINANCE AND HAVE IT BROUGHT BACK TO US THIS AFTERNOON TO

EXCLUDE ANY PROPERTY THAT IS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE, AND

WALKING DISTANCE HAS BEEN DEFINED AS ONE QUARTER MILE, OKAY,

ONE QUARTER MILE WALKING, THE WALKING PATH OF ONE QUARTER

MILE AWAY FROM ANY OF THESE TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS.

I DIDN'T COME UP WITH THIS BY MYSELF LAST NIGHT.

I CALLED ONE OF OUR CITY PLANNERS AND WE TALKED ABOUT IT.

I SAID, WHAT CAN WE DO TO MAKE THIS, TO FOCUS THIS ON WHERE

IT NEEDS TO BE FOCUSED.

OKAY?

THIS STILL LEAVES SOME OPPORTUNITY, ACTUALLY, SOUTH OF

GANDY, INCLUDING DALE MABRY HIGHWAY.

THE POSSIBILITY IF THERE'S SOME PROPERTY THAT WANTS TO COME

IN FOR REZONING WITHIN A QUARTER MILE WALKING DISTANCE, ON

EITHER SIDE OF DALE MABRY HIGHWAY ALL THE WAY DOWN TO

MacDILL AIR FORCE BASE, SO BE IT.

BUT NOW WHAT?

DALE MABRY HIGHWAY AND GANDY BOULEVARD ARE BOTH MAJOR ROADS.

AND GANDY IS IMPROVED EVEN MORE SO.

THEY ARE MAJOR ROADS, AND AS ONE OF THE ATTORNEYS SPOKE TO

EVENTUALLY WE ARE GOING TO HAVE MAJOR TRANSIT ON ALL OF

THESE ROAD.

SO I AGREE, AS MUCH AS I HIGHLIGHT TO SAY IT, I AGREE WITH




MY FELLOW ATTORNEYS WHO CALLED IN TODAY AND SAID WE

SHOULDN'T BE THROWING OUT THE BABY WITH THE BATH WATER.

BUT I ALSO AGREE THAT DEVELOPMENT NEEDS TO BE IN THE

APPROPRIATE PLACE.

AND ESPECIALLY INTENSIVE DEVELOPMENT.

INTENSIVE DEVELOPMENT USED IN THIS F.A.R. SHOULD NOT BE USED

IN INAPPROPRIATE PLACES.

SO WITH THAT, MR. CHAIRMAN, WHENEVER YOU GET AROUND TO

ASKING FOR A MOTION -- AND BILL, I THINK THIS IS CONSISTENT

WITH WHERE YOU ARE GOING, AT LEAST I HOPE SO, BECAUSE THIS

WILL LIMIT THE PROPOSED INTERIM DEVELOPMENT CONTROL

ORDINANCE SIGNIFICANTLY.

THIS WILL TAKE AWAY THE IMPACT OF THIS ORDINANCE ON ALL OF

THESE ROADS THAT ARE CALLED TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS.

THAT'S WHERE I AM HEADED.

I DON'T WANT TO BELABOR THIS BEYOND TODAY I WOULD ASK US TO

DO A MOTION TO DIRECT LEGAL TO INCORPORATE THIS IDEA IN THIS

ORDINANCE AND VOTE THAT UP OR DOWN THIS AFTERNOON.

11:45:06 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. CITRO.

11:45:08 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

TO COUNCILMAN CARLSON INTEREST POINT WHEN THIS FIRST CAME

OUT THE TWO REASONS THAT WERE GIVEN WAS BECAUSE OF HIGH

COASTAL HAZARD AND BECAUSE OF EVACUATION TIMING.

AT THAT POINT OTHER PARTS OF THE CITY SUCH AS PALMETTO SAID,

WELL, WHAT ABOUT US?




THOSE TWO SITUATIONS, HIGH COASTAL HAZARD, EVACUATION TIME,

HAVE TO DO WITH SEVERAL PARTS OF OUR CITY.

SO WE CAN'T JUST CARVE OUT ONE AREA.

MR. GOERS IS GOING TO BE BRINGING TO US A STUDY THAT WE GOT

A GRANT ON, HOPEFULLY WITHIN THE NEXT EIGHT MONTHS.

THIS STUDY WILL REVEAL EXACTLY WHAT THIS ORDINANCE MAY OR

MAY NOT NEED TO BE DONE IN THIS CITY.

I WOULD PREFER TO WAIT ON THAT REPORT COMING BACK.

THIS ORDINANCE WILL TAKE AWAY ONE OF THE GREATEST STRENGTHS

THAT THIS CITY COUNCIL HAS, AND THAT'S TO HEAR THE BURDEN OF

PROOF CASE BY CASE BY CASE BY CASE.

I WANT TO HEAR WHAT THAT REPORT HAS TO SAY.

THEN WE CAN MOVE FORWARD.

I CANNOT SUPPORT THIS ORDINANCE TODAY.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

11:46:21 >>LUIS VIERA:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

I APPRECIATE THAT, SIR.

YOU KNOW, A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS GOING BACK AND FORTH, I

THINK WE HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENT CHOICES THAT WE HAVE TO

ANSWER AS MEMBERS OF COUNCIL, WHICH IS DO WE SUPPORT

MORATORIUM OR AN EQUIVALENT?

I HAVE MADE MY MOTION KNOWN ON.

THAT DO WE SUPPORT THE CODE AMENDMENT PROCESS?

I THINK THAT WE ALL DO.

I KNOW THAT I CERTAINLY DO, AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT I




PROMISED TO THE COMMUNITIES FROM DAY ONE, AND DO WE SUPPORT

SOMETHING THAT HAS IMMEDIATE IMPLEMENTATION OF THAT CODE

ENDMENT PROCESS THAT SEEMED TO HAVE AT LEAST GOTTEN TO

FIRST BASE FROM CITY COUNCIL LAST TIME 4-3, AND WHATNOT?

I SUPPORT THE CODE AMENDMENT PROCESS, WHICH IS A

DELIBERATIVE PROCESS AND WHATNOT THAT TAKES US INTO THE

DIRECTION THAT WE WANT FOR NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT THAT IS

DELIBERATIVE AND ALLOWS US TO CONSIDER ADEQUATELY AND WITH

GREAT MEASURED CARE ALL OF THE STEPS THAT CAN GO, AND WHAT

ARE THE BENEFITS OF IT, WHAT'S THE DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS OF

IT.

LIKE I SAID BEFORE, I RESPECTFULLY OPPOSE A MORATORIUM.

I JUST DON'T THINK THAT SEND THE RIGHT MESSAGE ON THE CITY

OF TAMPA.

AND I THINK THAT THERE'S A BETTER WAY TO GO, AS I HAVE SAID

MANY, MANY TIMES, THE BUDGET PROCESS, INFRASTRUCTURE, AND A

LITTLE COIN HAS ABRAHAM LINCOLN ON IT, THE PENNY, THE PENNY

SALES TAX, SUPPORTED ALL FOR TRANSPORTATION.

I WAS PROUD TO ENDORSE THAT AND I HOPE THAT IN 2022 WE CAN

GET THAT BACK ON THE BALLOT.

THERE IS NO GREATER FRIEND TO HAVING GOOD PROGRESS FOR

COMMUNITY WIDE SOUTH OF GANDY, AND MANY OTHER COMMUNITIES,

THAN MASS TRANSIT AND HAVING THOSE ROBUST TRANSPORTATION

RELATED INVESTMENTS THAT THIS WOULD DO.

WITH REGARDS TO OUR FRIEND COUNCILMAN CARLSON'S MOTION, MY




POSITION IS THAT ON THIS NARROWLY TAILORED ISSUE, WE SHOULD

SEE WHERE WE STAND ON IT TODAY.

IF IT GOES FORWARD, FINE F.NOT, BUT HAVING ANOTHER

COMPROMISE, WHETHER COUNCILMAN CARLSON LEADS IT OR

COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER LEADS IT, HE DON'T THINK HAS ANY

RELATIONSHIP TO WHETHER OR NOT WE WANT TO SUPPORT THE

ORDINANCE FOR IMPLEMENTATION ON JUNE 1st AS WE SEE IT

TODAY.

SO JUST MY THOUGHTS ON IT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. CHAIR.

11:48:49 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ANYONE ELSE?

YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

11:48:53 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

I APPRECIATE ALL THE CONVERSATION I HAVE HEARD.

I DON'T HAVE AN ANSWER AS TO WHY IT WAS BROUGHT UP THE WAY

IT WAS.

HOWEVER, I HAVE AN IDEA, AND THIS IS THE RATIONALE THAT I

HAVE COME UP WITH.

I WOULD IMAGINE THAT IF IT'S DONE NOT ON A CITY-WIDE BASIS,

JUST A LOCALIZED AREA, THAT I THEY MAY BE CONSIDERED BY THE

LAWYERS TO BE NOT THE RIGHT WAY OR CONSTITUTIONAL WAY TO DO

IT.

OOH I AM JUST SAYING THAT'S WAY THINK.

I HAVEN'T TALKED TO ANYONE REGARDING IT.

AND I HEARD ALSO DIFFERENT INDIVIDUALS SAY THAT FOR MY BREAD




AND BUTTER, I DO NOT HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO ANYONE ON THIS SIDE,

OR THIS SIDE.

NOT THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY AND NOT THE GOOD PEOPLE IN

SOUTH TAMPA.

IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO SAY IT, GOD BLESS THEM.

IN FACT YOU DON'T SEE NO CELL PHONE WITH ME I.ADOPT TEXT

ANYBODY WHEN I AM IN A MEETING AND NOBODY TEXTS ME.

PERIOD.

AND I HAVE DONE THAT MY WHOLE LIFE.

ONE DAY I MADE A MISTAKE WHEN I WAS CHAIRMAN YEARS AGO AND I

WILL BE -- AND I HAD A PHONE AND IT RANG.

BUT IF I DIDN'T HAVE THE PHONE ON ME IT COULD HAVE RANG ALL

IT WANTED.

SO IT WAS MY MISTAKE FOR BRINGING THE PHONE IN.

I ALWAYS TELL MY GRANDKIDS THIS.

IF YOU DRINK, YOU ARE LIABLE TO GET A DUI.

IF YOU DON'T DRINK YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO GET A DUI.

AND GUESS WHAT.

I YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO BE AN ALCOHOLIC.

BUT IT'S YOUR CHOICE.

DO WHAT YOU WANT.

I DON'T TELL THEM NOT TO DRINK.

BUT WHAT I AM DOING NOW IS TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE LOGISTICS

OF A VERY COMPLICATED SITUATION.

DO WE HAVE A PROBLEM THERE?




YES.

IS IT TRAFFIC?

YES.

HOWEVER, HOW DO WE GET HERE?

COUNCILMAN VIERA TALKED ABOUT TRANSPORTATION.

REALLY?

THERE IS NO TRANSPORTATION.

WHY?

BECAUSE EVERY TIME THERE'S AN EXPRESSWAY BUILT AND YOU HAVE

A PROBLEM, THE NEXT THING THEY DO IS EXPAND IT.

A YEAR LATER, THAT IS EXTINCT.

SO THEY HAVE TO SPEND HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS IF NOT BILLIONS

OF DOLLARS OP INSTEAD OF BUILDING, EXPANDING THE EXPRESSWAY,

BUT BUILD TRANSPORTATION THE RIGHT WAY.

I AM NOT HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE GOOD PEOPLE IN THE

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, BUT IF WE HAD GOT THAT MONEY

AND PUT IN THE TRAINS AND BUSES, WE MAY NOT BE IN THE

SITUATION WE ARE IN TODAY.

IN THE FIFTIES, WE HAD 50-SOME MILES OF STREETCARS.

HOW MANY WE GOT NOW?

NONE.

OTHER THAN THE STREETCAR THAT WE PUT IN UNDER THE GRECO

ADMINISTRATION, WILL 11 MILES, I THINK.

AND IT WENT FROM DOWNTOWN ALL THE WAY AROUND CHANNELSIDE

INTO YBOR CITY AND BACK.




HOW DO WE SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?

IT'S BY WORKING OUT AND HAVING A COMPLEX SITUATION, WORK

WITHIN THE GUIDELINES OF WHAT WE HAVE, THE PLANNING

COMMISSION HAS GOT TO BE INVOLVED, THE CITIZENS HAVE TO BE

INVOLVED, BUT TO SAY TODAY TO GO AND DO THIS, IF SOMEBODY

DOES SOMETHING, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM WHEN

YOU SAY I AM GOING TO HAVE IN A CONSTRUCTION IN THIS AREA,

NOT BECAUSE OF WHAT WE KNOW, BUT BECAUSE OF THE PROCESS THAT

WE ARE IN THAT WE DON'T KNOW.

SO THERE'S GOT TO BE DOCUMENTATION TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS

THING DOESN'T BITE THE DUST.

I'M NOT AGAINST THE PEOPLE IN SOUTH TAMPA.

AND I AM NOT AGAINST ANYONE WHO BROUGHT THIS UP.

BUT HAS TO BE A CONCENTRATED EFFORT WITHIN THE GUIDELINES OF

THE LAW, NOT WHAT I WANT, WHAT THE LAW SAYS I CAN DO.

AND THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT ARE VERY TROUBLING WHEN YOU

RUN FOR OFFICE AND SIT DOWN AND SAY I AM GOING TO DO

WHATEVER I CAN TO HELP.

HOWEVER, YOU ARE LIMITED IN WHAT YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT TO

HELP BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF SITUATIONS THAT HAVE NEVER

BEEN DISCUSSED UNTIL YOU HAVE A SITUATION THAT COMES LIKE IT

IS TODAY.

SO YOU HAVE PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES, NOT AGAINST EACH OTHER,

BUT AGAINST TRYING TO SOLVE A PROBLEM THAT THEY CAN'T SOLVE

THEMSELVES.




WHY DO YOU HAVE DEVELOPMENT?

I HEARD PEOPLE SAY.

DEVELOPERS, DEVELOPERS, DEVELOPERS DON'T BUILD A DAMN THING

UNLESS IT'S NEEDED.

THINK OF WHAT I JUST SAID.

IF THE CITY OF TAMPA WASN'T GROWING WOULD WE HAVE TALL

BUILDINGS?

I DON'T THINK SO. IF THE CITY OF TAMPA WAS AT A STANDSTILL,

WOULD YOU HAVE THE NEED FOR TRANSPORTATION?

I DON'T THINK SO.

YOU NEED TRANSPORTATION, AND IT'S KNOW IT THAT I WANT TO

DEVELOP, IT'S NOT THAT THE CITY WANTS TO DEVELOP, THE PEOPLE

ARE COMING HERE.

OF MY EIGHT GRANDCHILDREN, SIX HAVE GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE

SO FAR.

ALL SIX OF THEM HAVE COME BACK TO TAMPA.

TWO MORE PLAN TO STAY HERE.

YOU COULDN'T DO THAT 15, 20 YEARS AGO BECAUSE THERE WAS NO

OPPORTUNITY.

[BELL SOUNDS]

11:54:02 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
MR. CHAIRMAN, I CAN STOP RIGHT NOW.

11:54:05 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MANISCALCO?

11:54:07 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
NO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

11:54:08 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I AM GOING TO MAKE A FEW COMMENTS BUT IT'S

GOING ON 12:00.




AND CTDV WANTS TO DO THEIR THING, AND THE PEOPLE ON THE

SECOND FLOOR AS WELL.

SO WE NEED TO BREAK FOR LUNCH AT 12, GENTLEMEN.

I KNOW IT'S DIFFICULT, BUT I WANT TO TRY TO MOVE THIS ALONG.

WE HAVE A BUSY AGENDA TODAY.

BUT LET ME JUST SAY THIS IN REFERENCE TO THIS ITEM.

AND THIS IS THE OLD POLICEMAN TALKING.

WHAT IS GUIDING WAY CALL THE PROCESS IS MONEY.

MONEY, POWER.

I DON'T KNOW THE WORD MORATORIUM, I DON'T KNOW WHY THE PAPER

SAID MORATORIUM.

THIS BOARD NEVER SAID, AFTER WE CAME BACK MAKING DECISIONS,

TALKING ABOUT MORATORIUM.

SO MR. CARLSON WOULD BE RIGHT.

SO HERE COMES THAT INFECTION.

WHERE IT CAME FROM, NOW WE GOT EVERYBODY SAY, OH, WE GOT TO

STOP THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT, BECAUSE DEVELOPERS AREN'T

GOING TO COME HERE AND SPEND MONEY, THIS AND THAT.

I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE RULES, MR. CITRUS, GOT ALL THIS MESS

GOING ON.

IT'S WHAT IT IS.

ALL FOR TRANSPORTATION.

BUT I AM GOING TO BE CANDID WITH YOU.

HAD WE HAD THOSE COMPROMISES WITH OTHER INDIVIDUAL, WE WOULD

HAVE HAD THAT MONEY THAT EVERYONE HAS BEEN BANKING ON FOR




DECADES AND SAYING, SOMETHING THEY AIN'T GOT.

GOT TO COMPROMISE SOMETIMES.

THAT'S HOW IT WORKS.

BUT WE DON'T HAVE THAT MONEY SO WE COULDN'T COMPROMISE TO

HAVE ALL FOR TRANSPORTATION TO START BUILDING ROADS, START

DOING WHATEVER WE NEED, POTHOLES, WHATEVER WE GOT ON,

BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE A COMPROMISE.

THINGS WOULD HAVE ALREADY -- OTHER COUNTIES ALREADY HAVE THE

SITUATION.

THE COURTS ALREADY RULED.

I LOOK AT THIS SITUATION HERE.

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT SOUTH OF GANDY.

SOMEONE HAS YET TO TELL ME HOW CAN HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY PUT

SOMETHING IN PLACE FOR A CERTAIN AREA BUT WE CAN'T DO THAT?

AND I'M NOT A LAND USE LAWYER.

IT'S STILL NEW TO ME.

I'M STILL LEARNING, THE CODES, BUT YOU CAN'T TELL ME THAT

SOMEBODY ELSE CAN DO SOMETHING THAT'S A HIGHER POWER THAN

YOU BUT YET WE CAN'T DO SOMETHING.

I STILL DON'T HAVE AN EXPLANATION ON THAT.

THEY ARE SAY SAME BOARD AS WE ARE, SAME LAND USE, I'M SURE

THE SAME TYPE OF CODE, THE COUNTY PER SE, BUT YOU CAN'T TELL

ME THAT WE CAN'T DO SOMETHING.

SOUTH OF GANDY, WITH DEVELOPERS, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE

DISAPPOINTED.




WE ARE NEVER GOING TO MAKE IT PERFECT YET.

WE HAVE ALREADY PUT THE FIRST STEPS TO GO DO IT PLANNING

COMMISSION TO GET THE WORK DONE.

IN JANUARY, FROM THE CALCULATION.

PERIOD.

SO SOMEBODY MAY BE UPSETTING BUT DON'T TELL ME THE CITY IS

GOING TO STOP GROWING AND NO ONE IS GOING TO COME HERE AND

ALL THAT STUFF.

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT ONE BIT.

EVERYBODY WANTS TO COME HERE.

SO LET'S STOP TRYING TO USE OUR MUSCLE AND MONEY TO DO

THINGS.

AND LET'S TRY TO WORK TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY, DEVELOPMENT

COMMUNITY AND SOUTH OF GANDY.

SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE DISAPPOINTED BUT LET'S MAKE THAT

DISAPPOINTMENT AS LESS PAINFUL AS WE CAN.

LEGAL SHOULD BE ASKING THE COUNTY WHAT DO THEY DO, HOW DO

THEY DO IT, BUT THEN, MR. DINGFELDER, THIS GREAT WORK HAS

COME UP, AND I TALK TO LAND USE PEOPLE.

INTENSIFY THOSE -- YOU ARE RIGHT.

THAT'S THE WAY IT SHOULD BE.

YOU ARE 100% RIGHT.

HERE IT IS.

MR. MIRANDA TALKED ABOUT THE RULES AND CODES.

MR. DINGFELDER HAS COME UP AND GIVEN IT TO US.




HERE IT IS.

WE CAN'T ARGUE THE POINT.

I MEAN, IT SAYS IT HERE.

UNTIL WE CAN COME UP WITH AN IDEA, CONSIDERABLE TO ALL.

MR. CITRO, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

11:58:29 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
ONE LAST WORD.

THE OFFICE OF LEGAL STAFF AND OTHER STAFF, ESPECIALLY MS.

FEELEY, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THEM FOR PUTTING ALL THE HARD

WORK INTO THIS JUST TO GIVE US THE INFORMATION.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

11:58:43 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I THINK EVERYONE HAS SAID THEIR PIECE.

IF THERE ARE ANY MOTIONS TO BE PUT ON THE TABLE I WILL

ACCEPT THEM NOW.

11:58:55 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CARLSON HAD THE FIRST MOTION BUT I

WILL BE GLAD TO GO SECOND.

11:59:08 >>BILL CARLSON:
IT SOUND LIKE IT WILL BE QUICKLY DENIED BUT

I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO DELAY THIS FOR TWO WEEKS

GEORGIA DO WE HAVE A SECOND?

A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MR. CARLSON.

11:59:18 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I WILL SECOND IT FOR PURPOSES OF

DISCUSSION.

EVERYBODY DESERVES A VOTE.

11:59:25 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER HAS SECONDED THE MOTION.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ROLL CALL?




11:59:32 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I WAS GOING TO ASK IF THERE'S ANY

DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION.

11:59:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YOU ARE RIGHT.

ANY DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION?

11:59:38 >>LUIS VIERA:
I'M SORRY.

IF I MAY, WHEN COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER SECOND IT, SAID

EVERYONE DESERVES A VOTE, YOU WILL FIGHT FOR SOMEONE'S RIGHT

TO BE HEARD, SO THANK YOU.

11:59:50 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION?

WE'LL TAKE A ROLL CALL VOTE.

MR. SHELBY.

11:59:58 >>LUIS VIERA:
NO.

12:00:02 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
RESPECTFULLY, NO.

12:00:05 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
NO.

12:00:06 >>BILL CARLSON:
YES.

12:00:08 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
NO.

12:00:10 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NO.

12:00:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
NO.

12:00:14 >>THE CLERK:
MOTION FAILED WITH EVERYONE EXCEPT FOR CARLSON

VOTING NO.

12:00:18 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

12:00:23 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

AS I STATED EARLIER, I PROVIDED THE TWO DOCUMENTS THIS

MORNING.

ONE IS THE ORDINANCE THAT WAS IN FRONT OF US ON ITEM 8.




AND THEN THE OTHER ONE IS SPECIFICALLY I DON'T WANT TO CALL

THIS OUT, MR. SHELBY SUGGESTED I DO SO, SPECIFICALLY LAND

USE POLICY 5.1.9, WHICH IN THE HIGHLIGHTED YELLOW AREAS

IDENTIFIES THE TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS, AND I READ THOSE

INTO THE RECORD BEFORE DALE MABRY THROUGH WESTSHORE

BOULEVARD, NORTH OF KENNEDY.

I'M SPECIFICALLY MAKING REFERENCE TO THOSE.

AND MR. MIRANDA, I PROBABLY WASN'T CLEAR BEFORE.

WHAT I AM SAYING HERE IS THAT THE ORDINANCE -- I WANT STAFF

TO TAKE A FEW HOURS UNTIL THIS AFTERNOON TO MODIFY THE

ORDINANCE FOR FIRST READING, AND THE ORDINANCE WOULD NOT

INCLUDE ANY PROJECTS THAT ARE WITHIN ONE QUARTER WALKING

DISTANCE -- AND I SAY WALKING DISTANCE, NOT AS THE CROW

FLIES BUT WALKING DISTANCE -- FROM THESE MAJOR STREETS,

THESE MAJOR ROADWAYS, THESE MAJOR TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS

THAT ARE IDENTIFIED ON HERE.

SO THE FLIP SIDE IS, ANY PROPOSED PROJECTS THAT ARE WITHIN

THESE TRANSIT ORIENTED, TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS COULD GO

FORWARD USING THE F.A.R. AS INTENSE DEVELOPMENT, BECAUSE

THEY ARE ON TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS, BUT THE OTHER SIDE

IS, LET'S NOT ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT IN THESE F.A.R. REMOVED

PLACES.

AND IT'S NOT JUST SOUTH OF GANDY, BUT THERE ARE SOME OTHER

FAR REMOVED PLACES THAT ARE NEVER GOING TO HAVE TRANSIT

EVER, AND THEY DON'T DESERVE TO USE THOSE F.A.R. NUMBERS.




THAT'S THE INTENT OF MY MOTION.

FITS NOT CLEAR PLEASE ASK ME.

AND MY MOTION IS TO ASK STAFF TO MAKE A SIMPLE, A SIMPLE

ADDITION TO THE ORDINANCE, WHICH IS TO EXEMPT ANY PROJECTS

WITHIN -- THAT ARE CALLED OUT WITHIN THAT LAND USE POLICY

5.1.9.

12:02:44 >>BILL CARLSON:
AND I WILL SECOND IT SINCE HE SECONDED

MINE.

12:02:47 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
CARLSON SECONDED IT.

YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

12:02:52 >>BILL CARLSON:
DID YOU TALK TO THE SOG LEADERS? BECAUSE

GANDY, I THINK THEY WOULD NOTE LIKE GANDY AND DALE MABRY

INCLUDED IN THIS.

12:02:59 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I TALKED TO THEM YESTERDAY GENERICALLY

ABOUT TRYING NOT TO DO THE WHOLE CITY, OKAY?

AND SO THEN I CAME UP WITH THIS IDEA.

I KNOW THEY ARE NOT GOING TO BE THRILLED ABOUT INCLUDING

GANDY AND DALE MABRY, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?

WE CAN'T PLEASE EVERYBODY ALL THE TIME.

WE CAN'T PLEASE ALL THE DEVELOPERS ALL THE TIME, AND I CAN'T

PLEASE MY GOOD FRIEND SOG ALL THE TIME.

12:03:22 >>BILL CARLSON:
I DON'T SEE 7th AVENUE.

I MISSING IT?

IS YBOR IN THERE?

12:03:30 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
IT SAYS ADAMO DRIVE.




I THINK YBOR IN SOME WAYS IS TREATED DIFFERENTLY.

12:03:34 >> ARTERIAL ROADS.

12:03:43 >>BILL CARLSON:
THERE'S ALSO THE REQUEST --

12:03:46 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU ARE ALLOWED TO USE

F.A.R. IN YBOR, BILL.

AND STAFF CAN CLARIFY.

12:03:52 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MIRANDA -- YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

I SAW YOUR HAND.

12:04:01 >>CAROLE POST:
I THINK THIS DISCUSSION ALONE I THINK IS

EVIDENCE THAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO COME BACK IN

TWO HOURS WHAT YOU ARE DISCUSSING AND BANTERING BACK AND

FORTH.

IT'S JUST NOT POSSIBLE.

I ASSURE YOU ALL THAT WE CAN PREPARE A LEGALLY DEFENSIBLE

INTERIM DEVELOPMENT CONTROL ORDINANCE IN THAT SHORT PERIOD

OF TIME.

SO I THINK IT WOULD BE WISE TO MOVE FORWARD UP OR DOWN ON

THE ORDINANCE THAT'S IN FRONT OF YOU TODAY.

I THINK THAT MR. DINGFELDER'S POINTS AND THE POINTS RAISED

BY MR. COEN ARE GOOD ONES AS FAR AS THE TRANSIT EMPHASIS

CORRIDORS GO, AND MAYBE THAT'S THE DIRECTION THAT YOU WANT

TO GIVE THE PLANNING COMMISSION WITH RESPECT TO THE

PERMANENT COMP PLAN AMENDMENT THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE UNDERWAY

THAT THEY LOOK AT EXEMPTING THOSE AREAS ON A PERMANENT

BASIS.




.

AND ALLOWING USE OF THE F.A.R. THERE.

I THINK THAT'S -- I THINK MR. DINGFELDER DID SOMETHING HE'S

ALWAYS TALKED ABOUT DOING, ON AN INTERIM BASIS, ALLOWING

MORE DENSE DEVELOPMENT ON A TRANSIT ORIENTED CORRIDOR.

I DON'T THINK WE ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO COME BACK IN A

COUPLE OF HOURS WITH SOMETHING THAT'S NOT REAL CLEAR AT THIS

STAGE.

12:05:20 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CHAIRMAN?

I WILL RESPECT MS. GRIMES REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL TIME.

I AM NOT VERY INTERESTED IN GIVING ANYBODY AN ADDITIONAL

YEAR, BECAUSE THE SOUTH OF GANDY FOLKS AND OTHER FOLKS IN

THE COMMUNITY, IT'S NOT JUST SOUTH OF GANDY.

WE HAVE BEEN GETTING HUNDREDS OF E-MAILS FROM FOLKS ALL

ACROSS THE CITY ON THE OVERINTENSIFICATION OF DEVELOPMENT IN

THIS CITY.

SO IT'S NOT JUST SOG.

BUT I WILL RESPECT MS. GRIMES REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL TIME,

AND SORT OF BIG I PACK ON MR. CARLSON'S MOTION EARLIER

MOTION, BUT WITH MORE SPECIFICITY THAT TWO WEEKS FROM NOW,

STAFF, WE WOULD REQUEST STAFF TO RESPOND AND COME BACK WITH

AN ORDINANCE THAT WOULD INCORPORATE WHAT I JUST SAID.

AND I DON'T THINK I NEED TO REPEAT WHAT I SAID.

SO INSTEAD OF MY MOTION TO COME BACK -- CAN I FINISH?

INSTEAD OF MY MOTION TO COME BACK AFTER LUNCH, MY MOTION




WOULD BE TO COME BACK IN TWO WEEKS.

AND I THINK TWO WEEKS IS PLENTY OF TIME FOR THEM TO INCLUDE

THE VERY SIMPLE LANGUAGE THAT I SAID, AND IF THEY CAN'T DO

IT, I WILL DO IT MYSELF, THE VERY SIMPLE LANGUAGE I SAID

MODIFYING THIS ORDINANCE.

12:06:43 >>GINA GRIMES:
I HAVE A QUESTION.

ISN'T THAT THE SAME AS JUST CONTINUING IT?

I THOUGHT THAT MOTION WAS JUST VOTED DOWN.

12:06:49 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
IT'S CONTINUING IT FOR A SPECIFIC

PURPOSE.

MR. CARLSON'S MOTION, I WILL RESPECTFULLY REPEAT IT, WAS TO

CONTINUE IT TO ALLOW STAFF TO CONVERT WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD,

ET CETERA.

MY MOTION IS MUCH MORE SPECIFIC, MS. GRIMES, WITH A SPECIFIC

LANGUAGE INCLUSION TO COME BACK FOR FIRST READING WITH THAT

LANGUAGE INCLUDED.

AND I SAY IF IT'S GOOD ENOUGH TO RECOMMEND IT TO THE

PLANNING COMMISSION FOR A YEAR FROM NOW, THEN IT'S GOOD

ENOUGH TO INCLUDE IN OUR TEMPORARY ORDINANCE.

12:07:25 >>GINA GRIMES:
I HAVE TO DEGREE, POSTPONING IT FOR TWO WEEKS

TO MAKE THIS CHANGE WOULD RESOLVE EVERYONE'S ISSUES, I THINK

THAT WOULD BE A WORTHWHILE ENDEAVOR.

BUT I HAVE TO AGREE WITH MR. GUDES IN THAT AT THE END,

THERE'S GOING TO BE SOMEONE WHO IS UNHAPPY WITH ALL OF THIS

SO I KNOW THAT EVERYONE IS TRYING VERY HARD TO PLEASE




EVERYONE, BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT COMING BACK IN TWO WEEKS

WITH A MODIFIED VERSION IS GOING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

12:07:55 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I WILL JUST SAY ONE FINAL THING.

WE CAN'T SOLVE EVERYTHING.

WE WOULD HAVE TO GO ON A PARCEL BY PARCEL BASIS ACROSS THE

WHOLE CITY TO TRY TO SOLVE EVERYTHING.

BUT I ALSO DON'T WANT TO BE KNOWN AS A COUNCIL THAT DOES

NOTHING, THE COUNCIL THAT DOESN'T RESPOND TO THESE E-MAILS

THAT ARE COMING AT US RIGHT AND LEFT.

THERE'S 15 E-MAILS TODAY ALONE.

IF THERE'S 10 E-MAILS FROM DEVELOPERS ATTORNEYS, BUT THERE'S

50 E-MAILS FROM REAL PEOPLE WHO HAVE REAL CONCERNS ABOUT THE

TRAFFIC AND THE EVACUATION ISSUES FACING US TODAY.

SO WITH THAT, I WILL RESTATE MY MOTION, IF I GET A SECOND,

IF I GET A VOTE, WHATEVER.

MY MOTION IS COME BACK FROM TWO WEEKS FROM NOW WITH THE

FIRST READING WITH THE EXACT SAME ORDINANCE BUT TO INCLUDE

AND MAKE REFERENCE TO LAND USE POLICY 5.1.9 AND EXCLUDE

THOSE PROPERTIES THAT ARE WITHIN ONE QUARTER MILE OF THE

TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS OF LAND USE POLICY 5.1.9.

12:08:56 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
AND DOES THE SECONDER OF THE MOTION AGREE

WITH THE RESTATEMENT?

12:09:00 >>BILL CARLSON:
YES.

12:09:07 >>CAROLE POST:
IT'S CAROLE POST, ADMINISTRATOR FOR

DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY.




I RESPECT COUNCIL AND THE COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER IS TRYING TO

NAVIGATE THE COMPETING INTERESTS.

I THINK WE ALL HAVE BEEN, CERTAINLY RESPECT THE CONTINUED

EFFORTS.

I WOULD JUST REMIND COUNCIL THAT WE HAVE DONE THIS THREE

TIMES NOW IN TERMS OF GOING BACK, GOING BACK TO THE CITY,

TRYING TO UNDERSTAND EVERYONE'S ISSUES AND NAVIGATE AND FINE

TUNE THE LANGUAGE, AND WHILE I AGREE, WE WILL NEVER MAKE

EVERYONE HAPPY, I FEEL LIKE SPENDING ANOTHER TWO WEEKS, WE

WILL LIKELY END UP WHERE WE STARTED, WHICH IS A SOLUTION

THAT HAS PERHAPS UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES.

THAT SEEMS TO BE KIND OF OUR ACHILLES HEEL EACH TIME WE

THINK WE HAVE A WORKABLE SOLUTION WILL RESULT IN UNINTENDED

CONSEQUENCES.

AND I WOULD FINALLY OFFER THAT.

THIS IS NOT A COUNCIL THAT DOES NOTHING.

THE COUNCIL ADOPTED, ITS A RESOLUTION ON APRIL 1st,

PROCEEDED FASTER THAN NORMAL ACTUALLY WITH A COMP PLAN

ENDMENT TO PERMANENTLY ADDRESS THE F.A.R., WHICH IS WHAT

THE SOUTH OF GANDY NEIGHBORHOOD REPRESENTATIVES REQUESTED US

TO DO DURING THAT TAMPA CITY COUNCIL HALL MEETING, AND MOST

OF THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY THAT WAS REPRESENTED THERE THAT

DAY AGREED WITH IT, RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S JUST ONE STEP OF

MANY, BUT IT'S AN IMPORTANT STEP, AND IT IS ALSO A STEP THAT

IS A DELIBERATE MEASURED PROCESS THAT HAS FULL THROATED




COMMUNITY AND OUTREACH ENGAGEMENT, PUBLIC HEARINGS, AND

FEEDBACK, SO THAT IT CAN BE FINE TUNED OVER TIME

SO I JUST OFFER THAT FOR CONSIDERATION.

THANK YOU.

12:11:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER.

12:11:06 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU, MS. POST.

THE REALITY IS THAT WE SHOULDN'T BE ELIMINATING F.A.R. IN

THESE TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS.

THOSE ARE THE AREAS THAT WE SHOULD BE ENCOURAGING INTENSE

GROWTH.

THOSE ARE THE AREAS UP AND DOWN KENNEDY BOULEVARD AND SOME

OF THESE OTHER PLACES WHERE WE SHOULD BE ENCOURAGING THE

DENSITY, AND THAT WAY THE DENSITIES GO DOWN WHERE IT

SHOULDN'T BE, IN PLACES THAT ARE REMOTE AND CAUSE TRAFFIC

AND EVACUATION ISSUES AND OTHER CONSEQUENCES THAT WE DON'T

WANT.

AND MS. POST, YOU AND I TALKED ABOUT ALMOST TWO YEARS NOW

HOW WE SHOULD BE ENCOURAGING DENSITY ALONG THESE TRANSIT

EMPHASIS CORRIDORS.

SO I THINK WE ARE SAYING THE SAME THING, THAT IN THE SHORT

TERM, YOU ARE SAYING IT IN THE LONG-TERM, BECAUSE I KNOW

OVER THE NEXT YEAR PEOPLE INCLUDING YOURSELVES ARE GOING TO

SAY, NOW WHAT?

LET'S ELIMINATE F.A.R. IN SOME PLACES BUT NOT OTHER PLACES

AND THESE WHAT I AM SAYING EXCEPT I AM SAYING LET'S DO IT IN




THE SHORT TERM, TOO, BECAUSE IF WE DON'T THESE PROPERTIES

ARE GOING TO COME IN FOR REZONING, THEY ARE GOING TO STICK

THEIR CAMEL'S NOSE UNDER THE TENT AND COME IN FOR REZONING

NOW.

THAT'S WHY YOU HAVE THIS TYPE OF INTERIM DEVELOPMENT CONTROL

ORDINANCE, TO PREVENT THAT IN AREAS THAT ARE INAPPROPRIATE.

THAT'S WHAT MY MOTION IS.

AND I GOT A SECOND.

AND I APPRECIATE IT.

12:12:32 >>CAROLE POST:
IF I MAY JUST RESPOND TO THAT BRIEFLY.

12:12:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MS. POST, LET ME GO TO MR. VIERA.

12:12:41 >>LUIS VIERA:
AND I DON'T MIND MS. POST GOING FIRST, UNLESS

YOU WANT ME TO GO BEFORE.

BUT I DON'T MIND.

12:12:48 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALL RIGHT, MS. POST, GO AHEAD.

12:12:50 >>CAROLE POST:
I APPRECIATE IT.

JUST TO BRIEFLY RESPOND, WE CERTAINLY DO AGREE THAT THERE

ARE MANY AREAS OF THE CITY WHERE INTENSITY AND DENSITY ARE

BOTH APPROPRIATE AND DESIRED, AND THAT IS OUR PLAN AS WELL.

THE PLANNING COMMISSION APPROACHED ME TO SET THAT OUT AND

TODAY, THE REASON WHY WE DO NOT NECESSARILY SUPPORT THIS

TODAY IS THAT THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS, SOME WOULD BE

ULTIMATE LONG-TERM SOLUTIONS.

THE BONUS OPTIONS REMAIN IN PLACE, MIXED USE OPTIONS, THESE

ARE ALL TOOLS THAT CAN BE USED TO ACHIEVE THOSE DENSITIES




WITHOUT F.A.R., NOT SUGGESTING THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION

CHANGES MAY NOT HAVE ADAPTATION AND REFINEMENT, BUT WITH OR

WITHOUT THEM, THERE REMAINS AN ARRAY OF TOOLS AVAILABLE IN

THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY, IN THE CITY, TO DRIVE DENSITY AND

INTENSITY WHERE WE DESIRE IT.

12:13:53 >>LUIS VIERA:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

WITH REGARD TO THIS PROPOSAL THAT COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER PUT

FORWARD, THIS MAY BE SOMETHING THAT I COULD SUPPORT DOWN THE

LINE AND WANTED TO LOOK AT IT FURTHER.

I SEE HERE, FOR EXAMPLE, BRUCE B. DOWNS BEING INCLUDED IN

HERE, AND AREA WHERE TONS AND TONS OF BUILDING

INTENSIFICATION, ET CETERA, WOULD HAVE TO HONESTLY PROBABLY

SPEND MORE TIME ON THIS.

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IS TO JUST HAVE AN UP OR DOWN VOTE

ON NUMBER 8, AND THEN MAYBE WE TAKE A LOOK AT THIS, AND SEE

IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WANT TO ADDRESS.

AGAIN, I THINK WE CAN HAVE BOTH, WHICH IS, YOU KNOW, THIS

COMES BEFORE US, AND WE INVESTIGATE IT, DO THE PROPER

RESEARCH, ET CETERA, ON IT, WITHOUT, YOU KNOW, JUMPING INTO

IT RIGHT NOW, AND WE DEAL WITH NUMBER 8, IF NUMBER 8 FAILS.

AND NUMBER 8 PASSED LAST TIME, SO THERE YOU GO.

BUT JUST MY THOUGHTS.

THANK YOU.

12:14:50 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
LET ME ASK MS. POST OR MRS. GRIMES, I

HAVEN'T GOTTEN AN ANSWER. I WANT TO KNOW WHY THE COUNTY WAS




ABLE TO DO WHAT THEY DO WITH DEVELOPMENT, AND CARVE OUT A

SECTION, BUT YET WE HEARD THAT WE CAN'T DO THAT.

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO THAT TO ME?

12:15:14 >>GINA GRIMES:
THE REASON IS THEY HAVE THE -- MORATORIUM IN

A AREA BUT AS DEMONSTRATED TO YOU ON APRIL 1st IS USE OF

THE F.A.R. INCREASED THE COMP PLAN DENSE DIS, EIGHTS

CITY-WIDE PROBLEM, SO WE DON'T HAVE THE DATA TO SUPPORT

IMPLEMENTING COMP PLAN AMENDMENT AND A MORATORIUM IN JUST

ONE SECTION OF THE CITY, WHEN YOU HAVE A CITY-WIDE PROBLEM.

12:15:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
OKAY.

SO GO BACK TO THE DATA.

12:15:44 >>CAROLE POST:
MR. CHAIRMAN GUDES, AND COUNCIL, JUST TO

REITERATE ONE POINT THAT MAY BE RELEVANT IS THAT THE FIRST

STEP OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION PROCESS ACTUALLY END THE

25th, RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

THAT IS THE FIRST OF STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS ON THE PLAN

ENDMENT.

SO IT WOULD BE AN OPPORTUNE TIME TO BEGIN THIS DISCUSSION IN

CONCERT WITH THE PLAN AMENDMENT PROCESS.

12:16:12 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I WANT TO MAKE SURE I HAVE THIS.

IF WE VOTE THIS UP OR DOWN, AND IT'S VOTED DOWN,

ARE WE SAYING THAT -- LOOK AT MR. DINGFELDER'S IDEA TO SEND

TO LEGAL, AND POSSIBLE TO GET THE ORDINANCE?

THAT'S WHAT I WAS KIND OF HEARING.

12:16:38 >>BILL CARLSON:
DO WE DO HIS MOTION FIRST?




12:16:42 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
PROCEDURALLY, MR. SHELBY CAN PROBABLY

SPEAK TO IT, BUT I THINK IF I HAVE A MOTION AND SECOND ON

THE FLOOR, IT TAKES PREEM EVENINGS OVER ITEM 8 AS IT STANDS,

AND FRANKLY THAT WILL BE MY PREFERENCE.

BECAUSE IT'S A SUBSTITUTE FOR ITEM 8.

SO WHY DON'T WE MAKE ITEM 8 THAT, AND THAT'S WHAT I AM

TRYING TO DO.

12:17:06 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ANY MORE DISCUSSION BEFORE A VOTE?

12:17:11 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I AM NOT AN ATTORNEY.

I'M A STREET GUY.

BUT I DON'T THINK YOU CAN TIE THIS INTO ITEM 8 AND SAY THE

SAME THING BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE THE SAME CONTEXT AS ITEM

8 ON THIS AGENDA.

AND I AM NOT AN ATTORNEY.

I DON'T PLAN TO BE ONE EITHER.

AND THIS AGENDA READS DIFFERENTLY THAN THE SUBSTITUTE MOTION

OR THE NEW SUBSTITUTE MOTION COMING ON.

SO YOU CAN'T SAY IT'S ITEM NUMBER 8.

12:17:33 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
CAN I CLARIFY THAT, MR. MIRANDA?

12:17:38 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
YES, SIR.

12:17:39 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I AGREE WITH YOU.

WHEN STAFF TAKES THIS AND MASSAGES IT AND INCORPORATES IT,

THIS POLICY, THIS LAND USE POLICY, AND THE EXCEPTIONS THAT I

TALKING ABOUT, AND COMBS BACK TWO WEEKS FROM NOW, IT WILL

BE A MODIFIED ITEM 8.




AS IT IS TODAY, NO, ITEM 8 DOESN'T SPEAK TO THESE ITEMS

BECAUSE THESE ITEMS DIDN'T COME UP UNTIL I BROUGHT THEM UP.

BUT THAT'S WHY WE ARE -- AND THE INTENT MIGHT HAVE MOTION IS

TO GIVE LEGAL, STAFF, TWO WEEKS TO COME BACK TO US AND GIVE

US -- AND IT'S REALLY NOT A BIG MODIFICATION.

I MEAN, IT'S REALLY INSERTING TWO PARAGRAPHS.

SO THAT'S THE INTENT OF MY MOTION.

I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO GET A VOTE ON MY MOTION, SO WE CAN

JUST MOVE ON IT.

12:18:30 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
WHAT YOU HAVE IS A MOTION TO CONTINUE TO W

SPECIFIC MOTION TO STAFF.

ULTIMATELY THE MOTION WILL BE VOTED UP OR DOWN.

THE MOTION WILL BE IN ORDER.

AND THEN WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS IF THE MOTION DOES FAIL THEN A

MOTION ON FIRST READING, OR A MOTION TO NOT GO TO FIRST

READING WOULD THEN BE IN ORDER.

IT'S UP TO COUNCIL.

SO MY SUGGESTION WOULD BE TO TAKE THE MOTION THAT'S ON THE

FLOOR WITH THE SECOND BEFORE YOU MOVE ON.

BUT BOTH COUNCILMAN MIRANDA AND COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER I

BELIEVE ARE BOTH CORRECT.

12:19:11 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THERE'S A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MR.

DINGFELDER.

SECOND BY MR. CARLSON.

MS. GRIMES, I SAW YOUR HAND UP REAL QUICK.




12:19:19 >>GINA GRIMES:
I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT.

I STILL AM NOT CLEAR WHAT IT IS, WHAT DIRECTION YOU ARE

TRYING TO GIVE STAFF.

YOU TALKED ABOUT THE TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS BEING

EXCLUDED, BUT IS DALE MABRY EXCLUDED?

IS PARTS OF NEW TAMPA EXCLUDED?

SOME COUNCILMEN WANTED IT INCLUDED.

12:19:35 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
LET ME CLARIFY.

I'M SORRY.

BUT LET ME CLARIFY, GINA.

YOU HAVE GOT A COPY OF THIS FROM MR. GARRETT THIS MORNING

AND I AM SORRY IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT IN FRONT OF YOU.

I APOLOGIZE.

BUT THIS DOCUMENT SPECIFICALLY LAND USE POLICY 5.1.9 WHICH

IS IN FRONT OF ALL COUNCIL MEMBERS IDENTIFIES ABOUT A DOZEN

MAJOR ROADS THAT ARE LAND USE POLICY IN OUR COMP PLANS

DESCRIBES AS TRANSIT TAMPA SIS CORRIDORS.

WHAT I AM SAYING IS -- EMPHASIS CORRIDORS.

WHAT I AM SAYING INSTEAD OF THIS COMPREHENSIVE BROAD BRUSH

APPROACH THAT IS FRONT OF US ON ITEM 8 IN REGARD TO THE

ORDINANCE THAT'S PENDING, I AM TRYING TO CARVE OUT A HUGE

OUNT OF THE CITY THAT THE SO-CALLED MORATORIUM WOULD NOT

APPLY TO, WOULD NOT APPLY TO.

SO WE ARE SHRINKING DOWN ITEM 8, TREMENDOUSLY, TO EXCLUDE

ALL OF THESE DOZEN ROAD CORRIDORS THAT ARE IDENTIFIED IN




5.1.9, AND ANY PROPERTY THAT'S WITHIN A QUARTER MILE WALKING

DISTANCE, WALKING DISTANCE, FROM THOSE CORRIDORS.

SO I AM DOING EXACTLY WHAT ALL THOSE LAND USE ATTORNEYS

ASKED FOR, OKAY?

AND FRANKLY, I THINK IT WILL HELP THE SOUTH OF GANDY FOLKS,

TOO, BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF PROPERTY DOWN THERE THAT IS

NOT WITHIN A QUARTER MILE OF GANDY AND NOT WITHIN A QUARTER

MILE WALKING OF DALE MABRY.

AND THOSE WOULD BE THE PROPERTIES THAT WOULD BE AFFECTED BY

THIS ORDINANCE.

AND I AM NOT SAYING IT'S PEST.

NOTHING IS PERFECT.

BUT AT LEAST WE HAVE RESPONDED TO THE COMMUNITY AND WE ARE

TRYING TO DO SOMETHING IN THE SHORT TERM WHILE STAFF IS

TRYING TO DO SOMETHING IN THE LONG-TERM.

AND THAT'S THE INTENT OF MY MOTION.

12:21:26 >>GINA GRIMES:
I GUESS WHAT I AM CONFUSED ABOUT IS THAT'S

DIFFERENT FROM THE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT THAT'S ALREADY BEEN

ADVANCED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

12:21:34 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
RIGHT.

MODIFY --

12:21:37 >>GINA GRIMES:
UNDER THE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT, I CAN

RECOLLECT ON SOIL THAT.

12:21:42 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AND WE WOULD MODIFY OUR MOTION TO THE

COMP PLAN TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION ACCORDINGLY IF THIS




PASSES.

12:21:48 >>GINA GRIMES:
I THINK THAT'S BEEN THE WHOLE, I THINK,

UNCERTAINTY WITH MORATORIUM, IS YOU HAVE A COMP PLAN THEMED

THAT'S GOING TO CHANGE AND LIKELY GOING TO BE MADE, SO

THAT'S WHY A LOT OF INDIVIDUALS ARE CONNECTING -- OBJECTING

TO THE MORATORIUM BECAUSE THE MORATORIUM IS DIFFERENT THAN

WHAT WILL ULTIMATELY BE ADOPTED.

AND THAT IS THE DOWN SIDE TO ADOPTING THE MORATORIUM BEFORE

THE ORDINANCE, THE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT, HAS GONE THROUGH THE

PROCESS AND HAS BEEN MODIFIED AND ADJUSTED TO MEET

EVERYBODY'S CONCERNS.

SO YOU ARE IMPOSING AN ORDINANCE RIGHT NOW, A MORATORIUM, ON

DEVELOPMENT THAT MAY ULTIMATELY BE PERMITTED UNDER THE COMP

PLAN AMENDMENT THAT'S EVENTUALLY ADOPTED.

12:22:41 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
BUT THAT'S WHAT ITEM 8 WOULD HAVE DONE.

I AM JUST SHRINKING IT DOWN TREMENDOUSLY.

I AM SHRINKING THE IMPACT OF ITEM 8 TREMENDOUSLY, MASSIVELY,

OKAY, BY EXEMPTING THESE CORRIDORS.

AND MR. CHAIRMAN, I AGREE WITH YOU, I THINK WE SHOULD LET'S

JUST GET A VOTE AND BE DONE WITH IT.

IF IT PASSES THEN WE DIRECTED LEGAL STAFF TO DO IT.

IF IT DOESN'T, LET'S MOVE ON.

12:23:07 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
AND THIS IS MY LAST CONVERSATION ON THIS

ITEM.

I AM NOT AGAINST WHAT MR. DINGFELDER HAS BROUGHT UP.




BUT I WANT TO BE AS LEGALLY CORRECT 110% AS POSSIBLE.

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING THAT'S THE SAME BUT IS

DIFFERENT, AND THE APPROACH.

IT'S THE SAME TEXT WITH A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO THE

CONVERSATION, JUST SETTLED BY BOTH SIDES.

THIS SIDE, RIGHT OR LEFT, LEFT OR RIGHT, SO THEY CAN COME TO

A CONCLUSION.

HOWEVER, WHEN YOU ASK THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT TO COME BACK WITH

A NEW ORDINANCE WITHIN TWO WEEKS, THAT MEANS WE WORKSHOP

EVERYTHING.

IF SOMEBODY GET A OH COLD WE CALL FOR A WORK SHOWN.

HOWEVER LET'S LET THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT THAT I AM 110% SO

LATER ON WE DON'T GET BIT AND SAY, OH, I DIDN'T KNOW THIS

WAS HAPPENING, TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT MR. DINGFELDER BROUGHT

IN, AND NOT A BAD IDEA, IT'S A GREAT IDEA THAT IS LEGALLY

SATISFIED.

WHEN YOU HAVE SOMETHING IN TWO WEEKS COME BACK WITHOUT A

WORKSHOP, THE PUBLIC USUALLY DOESN'T HAVE THE RATE TO SPEAK

AT FIRST, ON THE FIRST HEARING OF THE CONSIDERATION.

SO THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE ONE TIME WHEN IT COMES BACK TWO

WEEKS LATER.

SO WHAT WE ARE SAYING IS WE ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING AND

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE BOTH SIDES ARE GOING TO BE

CRITICIZED FOR NOT HAVING A PROPER TIME AND A PROPER THEATER

TO FLESH OUT THESE THINGS AND WORK THEM OUT.




I AM NOT AGAINST WHAT MR. DINGFELDER SAID.

I DON'T WANT -- I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE 1,000%

CORRECT.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

12:24:39 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I DON'T THINK WE ARE EVER GOING TO BE A

THOUSAND PERCENT CORRECT.

BUT I THINK AGAIN I SAY WE ARE NOT GOING TO MAKE EVERYBODY

HAPPY.

WE MAY COME CLOSE.

BUT IN MY MIND, WHAT I AM HEARING, WHEN I LOOK AT THE

DOCUMENT, MR. DINGFELDER HAS SUBMITTED, HE HAS VALID POINTS.

AGAIN, YOU SAY LEGALLY.

WE HAVE TO GET THE FACTS TO MAKE SURE WE DO WHAT WE NEED TO

DO TO MAKE IT LEGAL OR MAKE IT WORK.

RIGHT NOW WE ARE NO SITUATION, UP OR DOWN.

DO WE SEND IT ALL BACK AND TRY TO SEE IF THEY CAN -- SEE IF

IT CAN LEGALLY WORK AND BRING THE ORDINANCE BACK AND HAVE A

WORKSHOP OR HAVE WHATEVER WHETHER THE PUBLIC IS GOING TO GO

FOR IT OR NOT, DEVELOPERS GO FOR IT OR NOT, BUT AT THE END

OF THE DAY, SOMEBODY STILL ISN'T GOING TO BE HAPPY.

PERIOD.

MR. CARLSON.

12:25:34 >>BILL CARLSON:
THIS WILL BE MY FINAL COMMENT ON THIS

TOPIC.

MR. DINGFELDER, I THINK YOU USED THE RIGHT TERM EARLIER.




UNFORTUNATELY WE THINK CAN'T TALK OUTSIDE OF THIS ROOM

BECAUSE OF SUNSHINE.

WE ASKED FOR BASED ON THE DEMANDS OF THE SOUTH OF GANDY

FOLKS, WE ASKED FOR A SOUTH OF GANDY SOLUTION, THAT

SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSED A CERTAIN PROBLEM, AND WE HAVE GOT A

SOLUTION NOW THAT IS A POISON PILL.

AND THE DEVELOPERS ARE MAD THAT PEOPLE SOUTH OF GANDY ARE

NOT HAPPY, THEY ARE JUST GOING ALONG WITH IT, THE QUESTION

HERE IS WHETHER WE IMPLEMENT IT NOW OR WAIT.

EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT DURING THAT PROCESS -- AND I BELIEVE IN

PUBLIC INPUT AND PUBLIC PROCESS -- BUT IN THAT PROCESS,

PEOPLE WHO ARE ARMED WELL HAVE LOTS OF MONEY ARE GOING TO

INFLUENCE THAT PROCESS MORE THAN THE AVERAGE CITIZEN, AND

WE'LL SEE WHERE THAT ENDS UP.

I THINK IT WILL BE VERY DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WE HAVE NOW.

WAY PREDICT LISTENING TO THE LANGUAGE OF EVERYONE THIS

MORNING AND LOOKING AROUND THE ROOM, I THINK THAT THIS

MOTION IS GOING -- THAT YOU JUST MADE IS GOING TO FAIL.

I THINK THAT THE MOTION FOR NUMBER 8 IS GOING TO FAIL.

AND SO I WOULD JUST LIKE TO PREEMPTIVELY SAY TO THE CITIZENS

SOUTH OF GANDY, WE AS A CITY COUNCIL, I THINK, UNANIMOUSLY

ASKED FOR A SOLUTION SOUTH OF GANDY.

WHAT WE HAVE IN FRONT OF US IS SOMETHING THAT THE BROADER

COMMUNITY PEOPLE AND N OTHER PARTS OF THE COMMUNITY,

INDIVIDUAL LAND OWNERS AND DEVELOPERS DON'T LIKE, AND THEY




DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR THAT IT AFFECTS THEM INSTEAD OF JUST

SOUTH OF GANDY, AND BECAUSE OF ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT ARE PUT

INTO THIS PROPOSAL WE PROBABLY DON'T HAVE THE VOTES TO GET

ANYTHINGS PASSED.

SO I DON'T LIKE IT.

I HAVE BEEN IN FAVOR OF DENSITY DEVELOPMENT MY WHOLE LIFE.

I DON'T LIKE THIS PROPOSAL.

BUT MY CONSTITUENTS HAVE ASKED ME TO VOTE FOR IT.

SO I WAS ELECTED TO REPRESENT THEM, AND I AM GOING TO VOTE

THE WAY THEY HAVE ASKED ME TO VOTE.

BUT IF THIS FAILS, WHICH IF NUMBER 8 FAILS WHICH I THINK IT

WILL, I WOULD ASK STAFF ESPECIALLY IN THE MEETING WITH THE

MAYOR THIS COMING WEEK TO PLEASE THINK OF A SOLUTION AND

COME BACK, BECAUSE THIS AFTERNOON STARTING THIS AFTERNOON WE

ARE GOING TO GET THOUSANDS OF MORE E-MAILS AND IT'S NOT

GOING TO STOP FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS.

THANK YOU.

12:27:39 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
CAN I CLARIFY MY MOTION?

12:27:45 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
GO AHEAD.

12:27:47 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU, SIR.

MY MOTION DOESN'T COMMIT YOU TO VOTING YES ON FIRST READING.

MY MOTION, MR. MIRANDA SPECIFICALLY, MY MOTION SAYS LET'S

DIRECT STAFF TO INCORPORATE THIS LAND USE POLICY THAT I HAVE

SPOKEN TO TEN TIMES NOW, INCORPORATE IT INTO THE ORDINANCE,

AND BRING IT BACK FOR FIRST READING IN TWO WEEKS.




AT THAT POINT IN TIME WE WILL GET PLENTY OF INPUT, WE'LL GET

PLENTY OF STAFF INPUT, WE'LL GET PLENTY OF LEGAL INPUT.

IF LEGAL SAYS WE ARE TOTALLY OFFBASE I AM SURE THEY WON'T BE

SHY IN TELLING US, OKAY.

BUT THAT'S WHAT MY MOTION IS.

SO JUST A VOTE TODAY TO SAY, HMMM, DINGFELDER, MAYBE THAT'S

NOT A BAD APPROACH, LET'S LOOK AT IN THE TWO WEEKS AND I CAN

ASSURE YOU IT'S NOT A HUGE AMOUNT OF WORK.

OKAY.

IT'S PUTTING IN A COUPLE EXTRA PARAGRAPHS TO WHAT WE HAVE

ALREADY DONE.

SO THAT WOULD BE MY REQUEST.

AND TWO WEEKS FROM NOW IF WE DON'T LIKE IT WE CAN VOTE IT

DOWN.

12:28:51 >>RANDY GOERS:
CITY PLANNING DEPARTMENT.

JUST TO SHED SOME LIGHT.

THE ADDITION OF MOVING THE ORDINANCE AROUND THE PRIMARY

TRANSIT CORRIDORS, ESPECIALLY DOWN IN GANDY OR DALE MABRY,

IS COUNTER TO WHAT WE HAVE BEEN HEARING THROUGHOUT THE

PROCESS AS FAR AS WHERE A ROAD SHOULD GO AND WE CAN GO BACK

TO ALL THE WORKSHOPS THAT WE HEARD PAST AUGUST, AND ALSO THE

COMMUNITY'S CONCERN ABOUT WHERE THE DEVELOPMENT IS ROLL CALL

VOTE -- LOCATED ALONG GANDY AND DALE MABRY, AND IN HURRICANE

TIME AND SO FORTH, SO THAT'S THE DIRECTION OF THE TRANSIT

CORRIDORS DOES BRING US, I THINK, TO WHAT WE HAVE BEEN




DISCUSSING ALL ALONG, EVEN THOUGH IT NARROWS THE SCOPE OF

THE INTERIM DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.

I THINK COMING FROM MY PROFESSIONAL PLANNING EXPERIENCE IS

THAT THE DIRECTION THAT COUNCIL GAVE A FEW WEEKS AGO TO

PROCESS A PLAN AMENDMENT IS THE PROPER PLACE TO HANDLE THOSE

KIND OF DISCUSSIONS.

IT WILL GIVE THE COMMUNITY, IT GIVES THE STAFF, IT WILL GIVE

YOU AS CITY COUNCIL THE OPPORTUNITY TO REALLY LOOK AT THE

APPLICATION OF DEVELOPMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF THE

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND LONG RANGE PLANNING. IT WILL ALSO

PROVIDE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE BEEN MISSING

THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE PROCESS, AND THAT IS A PLACE WHERE THE

COMMUNITY CAN COME AND ALL THE PUBLIC HEARINGS AND COME TO

CONSENSUS, BUT EVERY TIME WE HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE

ORDINANCE, A NEW SUGGESTION COMES UP.

BECAUSE OF A SPECIAL INTEREST.

AND ALTHOUGH I CAN'T PREDICT THE FUTURE, IF YOU LOOK AT THE

PAST, TWO WEEKS FROM NOW WE MAY COME BACK WITH ANOTHER

OPTION TO TAKE A LOOK AT.

SO I DO WANT TO CAUTION OR AT LEAST RAISE THE ISSUE THAT IF

BUILDING THE ORDINANCE AROUND THE PRIMARY TRANSIT CORRIDOR

ESPECIALLY ALONG GANDY AND DALE MABRY SETS US ON A DIRECTION

THAT WAS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WE ENVISIONED, SO I JUST WANT

TO RAISE THAT.

AND I DO BELIEVE THE PLANNING PROCESS THAT HAS BEEN PUT IN




PLACE WHICH YOU INITIATED IS I THINK THE PROPER PLACE TO

HANDLE THAT.

12:31:13 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CHAIRMAN?

RANDY, WITH ALL DUE RESPECT -- AND I HAVE KNOWN YOU

20-SOMETHING YEARS, MR. CARLSON AND MYSELF AND MAYBE SOME

OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS, I TALKED TO THESE PEOPLE SOUTH OF

GANDY LIKE AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK ABOUT THIS ISSUE INCLUDING

YESTERDAY.

SO I AM VERY, VERY AWARE OF THEIR SENSITIVITIES AND THEIR

DESIRES AND THAT SORT OF THING.

IF I THOUGHT THIS WAS 100% COUNTER TO WHAT THEY WANT, THEN I

WOULDN'T BE DOING THIS.

I TOOK A VERY CLOSE LOOK AT THE MAP THAT WAS UP ON OUR

SCREEN EARLIER.

MR. RANDY COEN PUT UP ON THERE.

OKAY.

IT SPECIFICALLY LOOKED AT SOG.

ALL RIGHT.

AND YES, THERE'S A FEW OPPORTUNITIES ALONG GANDY BOULEVARD,

AND THERE'S A FEW OPPORTUNITIES ALONG SOUTH DALE MABRY THAT

STILL MATE COME INTO PLAY.

AND WE CAN DEAL WITH THOSE WHEN THEY COME INTO US FOR

REZONING.

BUT THE ONE THING THAT STAFF HAS NOT PROPOSING IS STAFF,

WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, EVERYBODY FROM LEGAL THROUGH MS. POST




ALL THE WAY DOWN, STAFF IS NOT OFFERING ANY SHORT-TERM

SOLUTIONS TO STOP THESE REZONINGS FROM COMING IN.

I AM USING THE F.A.R. AND THESE BIG INTENSIVE APARTMENT

COMPLEXES.

AND I KNOW I SOUND A LITTLE UPSET.

MY WIFE ALWAYS WARNS ME NOT TO SOUND UPSET.

BUT STAFF HAS NOT BEEN OFFERING ANY SHORT-TERM SOLUTIONS.

THE ONLY SOLUTION MR. GARRETT YOU PROPOSED WHEN WE TALKED

ABOUT THIS A MONTH AGO WAS YOU SAID, YES, WE ARE GOING TO DO

THIS IN A YEAR AND WE ARE GOING TO DO THIS IN 18 MONTHS, AND

WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, THAT'S THE WORLD THAT YOU OPERATE IN.

BUT THESE CITIZENS WHO ARE WRITING TO US, THAT'S NOT THE

WORLD THEY OPERATE IN.

THE WORLD THEY OPERATE IN, OR THAT THESE REZONINGS ARE

COMING TO US WEEK AFTER WEEK AFTER WEEK, AND WE NEED A

SHORT-TERM SOLUTION, AND THAT'S WHAT THIS INTERIM THING AS

PROPOSED TO BE MODIFIED BY ME TODAY WILL PROVIDE.

SO, MR. CHAIRMAN, I AM JUST LOOKING FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO

THROW THIS TOGETHER IN TWO WEEKS AND COME BACK FOR FIRST

READING, A COMMITMENT TODAY FROM YOU IS NOT --

12:33:32 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
THE SOONER WE VOTE ON IT.

MR. CHAIR, PLEASE.

THANK YOU.

I'M GLAD THAT MR. GOERS HAD HIS CHANCE TO CHIME IN.

AND THIS STUDY IS GOING TO GIVE US A HECK OF A LOT MORE




REASONS TO FIGURE OUT WHERE, WHO, HOW AND WHAT WE CAN DO.

AND GIVE US THE LEGAL BASIS IN WHICH WE CAN DO IT.

I AGREE, WE HAVE ALL HEARD FROM SOUTH OF GANDY PEOPLE.

AND AS FAR AS -- I'M HER FAVORITE COUNCILMAN UNLESS OTHER

PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN LITTLE POSTIE NOTES ON THEIR MEMOS, TOO.

12:34:10 >> YOU ARE?

12:34:11 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
HOWEVER, HOWEVER, TAKING A SHORT-TERM

RESOLVE TO THIS IS LIKE STEPPING ON A SHOELACE.

WE MIGHT TRIP OVER OURSELVES AFTER WE HEAR FROM RANDY GOERS

AND MAY HAVE TO CHANGE THINGS AROUND AGAIN.

I WOULD FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE HEARING WHAT WE HAVE WITH THIS

STUDY AND THEN MOVING FORWARD FROM THERE.

I'M FINISHED, MR. CHAIRMAN.

12:34:36 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION BY MR. DINGFELDER, SECOND BY MR.

CARLSON.

ROLL CALL VOTE.

12:34:42 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
NO.

12:34:44 >>BILL CARLSON:
YES.

12:34:45 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
NO.

12:34:47 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NO.

12:34:49 >>LUIS VIERA:
NO.

12:34:50 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YES.

12:34:52 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
YES.

12:34:54 >>THE CLERK:
MOTION FAILED WITH VIERA, MANISCALCO, CITRO,

AND MIRANDA VOTING NO.




12:34:59 >>LUIS VIERA:
MR. CHAIR, MAY I SAY SOMETHING?

AND I KNOW WE ARE GOING OVERTIME.

AGAIN, I SAW THIS AS SOMETHING WHICH WOULD IN EFFECT

CONTINUE NUMBER 8.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT COULD COME BACK TO US IN A COUPLE

WEEKS, IN EFFECT DOING WHAT COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER WANTED.

I JUST THINK THAT WE PROBABLY NEED TO LOOK INTO IT A LITTLE

BIT MORE HAVING JUST GOTTEN IT TODAY, AND SOME OF THE

CONCERNS THAT I SAID.

BUT AGAIN THIS IS SOMETHING THAT COULD COME BACK.

SO THAT MAY NOT BE DONE WITH.

12:35:31 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER, ARE YOU LOOKING TO PUT A

MOTION UP NOW FOR LATER REVIEW OR UNDER NEW BUSINESS OR MOVE

ON?

12:35:40 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
CITY COUNCIL JUST VOTED NO.

AND MR. MANISCALCO, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY

PARTICULAR DRUTHERS THAT YOU WOULD RATHER SEE THIS GO, IF

YOU WANT TO SEE IT STUDIED AND COME BACK IN A MONTH, BUT

YOUR VOTE MIGHT MAKE THE DIFFERENCE.

BUT I DON'T KNOW.

12:36:00 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
I LISTENED TO COUNCILMAN MIRANDA,

COUNCILMAN CITRO, MR. GOERS AND OTHERS. I THINK WE SHOULD

WAIT, JUST TO BE SAFE.

I DON'T WANT TO MAKE ANY MISTAKES.

I UNDERSTAND GETTING INFORMATION AND COMING BACK IN TWO




WEEKS BUT THE IS THIS THE RIGHT THING TO DO?

I KNOW HE WAS IMPATIENT BUT I WANT TO SEE ALL THE DATA AND

ALL THE FACTS BEFORE ANYTHING.

12:36:26 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THE STUDIES WE ARE TALKING ABOUT ARE

RIGHT HERE.

12:36:28 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
I UNDERSTAND.

12:36:29 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
ALL RIGHT.

I'M GOOD WITH THAT.

12:36:32 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THIS IS GOING ON.

12:36:36 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I FEEL THE SAME WAY.

I AM NOT AGAINST ANYONE SOUTH OF TAMPA, SOUTH OF GANDY,

SOUTH OF KENNEDY, SOUTH OF GEORGIA.

BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT WE DO IS 110% CORRECT.

I WOULD RATHER WAIT A LITTLE LONGER AND GET IT DONE SO WE

HAVE NO RAMIFICATION THAT THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT GIVES US

SOMETHING THAT'S 110%, THAT WHAT WE HAVE DONE IS CORRECT.

AND I AM NOT AGAINST MR. DINGFELDER.

I AM NOT AGAINST ANYONE.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS IS DONE CORRECTLY.

AND I AM NOT FOR ANYONE.

I JUST WANT TO GET IT DONE RIGHT.

12:37:11 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WHAT'S THE PLEASURE OF COUNCIL?

12:37:18 >>LUIS VIERA:
DO WE VOTE ON NUMBER 8 NOW?

12:37:22 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
DO YOU WANT TO DO IT AFTER LUNCH?

12:37:26 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
DO WE WANT TO DO OUR AGENDA ITEMS AND GET




THIS DONE AN OUT OF THE WAY?

COMMITTEE REPORTS, I'M SORRY.

OUR COMMITTEE REPORTS.

12:37:33 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
IT'S ALREADY 12:30.

12:37:39 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WHAT'S THE PLEASURE OF COUNCIL?

12:37:41 >> [OFF MICROPHONE]

12:37:45 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALL RIGHT.

WE ARE RECESSED TILL 1:30.

12:37:48 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INDULGENCE.

(MEETING RECESSED)







01:37:52 >>LUIS VIERA:
HERE.

01:40:06 >>BILL CARLSON:
HERE.

01:40:09 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
HERE.

01:40:14 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
HERE.

01:40:17 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
HERE.

01:40:19 >>THE CLERK:
WE HAVE A PHYSICAL QUORUM.

01:40:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I WANT TO DO A LITTLE HOUSEKEEPING REAL

QUICK.

WE ARE GOING TO JUMP BACK ON NUMBER 8.

WE ALREADY HAD DISCUSSION.

I AM GOING TO GET A MOTION TO SEE IF WE CAN MOVE THAT ITEM.

AND THEN GO INTO STAFF REPORTS.




CHIEF OF STAFF CALLED ME AND SAID WE HAVE SEVERAL PEOPLE ON

STANDBY THAT HAVE SUBPOENAS THIS AFTERNOON SO I WANT TO MAKE

SURE WE GET THOSE FOLKS TO COURT AND DON'T CAUSE ANY

PROBLEMS WITH THE CLERK OVER THERE.

I WANT TO TAKE UP NUMBER 8.

MR. SHELBY?

01:40:49 >> MARTIN?

, MR. SHELBY, THOSE WHO WANT TO GO TO ITEM NUMBER 8, I DON'T

THINK WE NEED ANY MORE DISCUSSION ON THAT.

WE JUST NEED TO GET TO A MOTION ON THAT AND ALSO ADVISE THAT

THE CHIEF OF STAFF CALLED ME IN REFERENCE TO STAFF PERSONNEL

HAVE SUBPOENAS THEY HAVE TO HONOR THIS AFTERNOON.

I DON'T WANT TO BELABOR THAT.

AND WE'LL GET INTO THE STAFF REPORTS.

MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

01:41:25 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

SO I AM GOING TO TAKE MR. MIRANDA'S ADVICE.

BECAUSE AS WE WERE FINISHING UP THAT DISCUSSION ON THE

MODIFIED VERSION OF ITEM 8, HE SAID, YOU KNOW, HE SAID I

THINK I MIGHT LIKE THE IDEA BUT WE NEED THE WORKSHOP.

AND WITH THAT I WOULD LIKE TO INSTEAD OF VOTING ON ITEM 8, I

WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE IT AND WORKSHOP IT AT A WORKSHOP, MR.

SHELBY, MIGHT SUGGEST -- DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER RELEVANT

WORKSHOPS ABOUT ZONINGS OR SOUTH OF GANDY OR ANYTHING LIKE

THAT?




TIDEWATER?

01:42:14 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
WELL, YES.

I BELIEVE THE CLERK HAS SOME ITEMS THAT ARE GOING TO BE

ASKED TO BE PUT ON THE --

01:42:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
DEPUTY CLERK, DO YOU HAVE ANY DATES?

01:42:25 >> WE HAVE SOME CHAPTER 27 ITEMS FOR MAY 27th.

KEEP IN MIND YOU HAVE QUITE A FEW WORKSHOP ITEMS FOR THAT

DAY, INCLUDING NUMBER 71 AND 72.

01:42:40 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
SO ONE OF THEM IS PURE ON MAY 27th.

THEN TWO RELATED PURE.

THEN CHAPTER 27.

AND THE ONE ON THE REFINANCING OF BONDS.

01:42:53 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WHAT'S ON JOHN -- AND I AM HAVING

TROUBLE HEARING YOU, I'M SORRY.

01:43:01 >>THE CLERK:
I'M SORRY.

YOU HAVE HOUSING AND LEGAL DEPARTMENT, AND THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN ESSENTIAL WORKERS, YOU HAVE A MOBILITY STAFF TO

SPEAK ON INSTALLING CROSSWALKS, AND LEGAL DEPARTMENT LOOKING

AT THE NEW ZONING ORDINANCES, CHICAGO.

01:43:22 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
ALSO BE CONSCIOUS, ON THE DAYS OF YOUR

WORKSHOPS YOU HAVE NIGHT MEETINGS SCHEDULED.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO GO FAR INTO THE AFTERNOONS ON

YOUR WORKSHOPS AS YOU MOVE FORWARD.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, A SPECIAL DISCUSSION MEETING WHICH WAS

FOLLOWED UP BY A VOTE OF COUNCIL, YOU HAD SPECIFICALLY




REQUESTED THAT WORKSHOPS SCHEDULED FROM 9 TO NOON OR IF

EXTENDED NO LATER THAN 1 P.M.

01:43:49 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THE JUNE DOESN'T SOUND TOO BUSY.

SO WITH THAT, MR. CHAIRMAN, I'LL MOVE TO CONTINUE ITEM 8 TO

INCORPORATE IT INTO A JUNE WORKSHOP CONSISTENT WITH MR.

MIRANDA'S REQUEST, AND ALSO TO INCLUDE MY EARLIER MOTION

THAT FAILED.

01:44:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION BY MR. DINGFELDER.

IS THERE A SECOND?

I HAVE A MOTION FROM MR. DINGFELDER.

DO I HAVE A SECOND?

01:44:19 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
NOBODY WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE?

01:44:22 >>LUIS VIERA:
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.

IN THE SPIRIT OF -- I WILL SUPPORT IT I AM NOT GOING TO

SUPPORT BUT I WILL SECOND IT ONLY FOR PURPOSES OF GETTING A

VOTE OF THE HOWEVER, HOWEVER, WE JUST REJECTED A CONTINUANCE

OF NUMBER 8, AND I KNOW WE ARE MISSING TWO COUNCIL MEMBERS.

01:44:42 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MAYBE WE SHOULD HOLD OFF UNTIL THEY COME

BACK.

01:44:47 >>LUIS VIERA:
I HAVE NO PROBLEM HAVING A VOTE ON IT.

01:44:48 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WOULD YOU LIKE TO WITHDRAW UNTIL --

01:44:54 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
IF WE CAN DEFER MY MOTION, MR. CHAIRMAN.

01:44:58 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
NEW BUSINESS?

01:45:00 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
UNTIL THE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE

HERE.




LET'S JUST RUN THROUGH THE REST OF THIS STUFF.

01:45:04 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALL RIGHT.

WE'LL DEFER NUMBER 8 TILL A FULL COUNCIL ARRIVES.

HOPEFULLY THEY'LL ARRIVE.

01:45:11 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I APPRECIATE THAT.

01:45:14 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE WILL MOVE ON INTO STAFF REPORTS.

01:45:22 >> CONSENT.

DO YOU WANT TO GET STAFF --

01:45:27 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WELL, STAFF CALLED ME AND SAID FOLKS ARE

WAITING TO GO TO SOME COURT ISSUES.

I DON'T WANT TO HOLD THEM UP.

I DON'T THINK WE HAVE THAT MANY STAFF REPORTS.

SO I WOULD LIKE TO GET THEM OUT.

I KNOW HOW IT IS IN COURT AND HOW THE SYSTEM IS OVER THERE.

01:45:44 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
WE CAN CONFIRM WITH THE CLERK BUT FOR

INSTANCE ON PAGE 20, 69 THROUGH 73, I THINK HAVE ALL BEEN

TAKEN CARE OF.

IS THAT RIGHT?

01:45:51 >>THE CLERK:
YES.

THE ONLY ITEMS REMAINING IS 74 AND 75, 77 AND 78.

THOSE FOUR ITEMS UNDER STAFF REPORT THAT STILL NEED TO BE

ADDRESSED.

01:46:03 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
74, 75, 77, 78.

01:46:07 >>THE CLERK:
CORRECT.

01:46:08 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.




74 APPEARS TO BE MR. DINGFELDER'S ITEM.

ITEM NUMBER 74.

MR. MASSEY OR MR. ROGERO.

01:46:25 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MY QUESTION IS PRETTY SIMPLE AND I THINK

WE CAN GET THROUGH 74 PRETTY QUICKLY, MR. CHAIRMAN.

THE MEMORANDUM FROM MR. MASSEY BASICALLY WENT AS HE DOES

WITH EVERYTHING, VERY THOROUGHLY, WENT THROUGH WHAT'S

INVOLVED AND N IMPACT FEES, THAT COMMUNITIES ALL ACROSS THE

STATE ARE DOING IMPACT FEES.

I THINK THE LEGISLATURE JUST MODIFIED THE IMPACT FEE STATUTE

SLIGHTLY, BUT IT STILL ALLOWS PUBLIC SAFETY IMPACT FEES AND

I AM GETTING A NOD FROM MR. MASSEY, I WILL JUST PUT THAT ON

THE RECORD.

AND AS FAR AS MR. ROGERO, MR. ROGERO, I DON'T KNOW,

BASICALLY I THINK HE SAID YOU ARE LOOKING AT ALL THESE

ISSUES AS RELATED TO THE NEEDS OF FIRE AND RESCUE AND THE

NEEDS OF TPD, WHICH OF COURSE WE ALWAYS DO REGULARLY.

SO MY ONLY REQUEST IS THAT INSTEAD OF JUST DEFERRING AND

LETTING IT DRIFT OFF INTO THE WIND, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE US

BRING IT BACK PERHAPS IN 90 DAYS TO CONTINUE THE DISCUSSION,

UNLESS MR. ROGERO OR MR. MASSEY HAVE ANY OBJECTIONS TO THAT.

THAT WOULD BE MY MOTION.

01:47:42 >> I'LL SECOND THAT.

01:47:47 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
SECOND BY MR. MANISCALCO.

01:47:48 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
BOTH GENTLEMEN ARE OKAY WITH IT.




OKAY.

01:47:52 >>LUIS VIERA:
AND I'M SO SORRY, I WAS READING SOMETHING,

JOHN, COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER.

WHAT WAS YOUR MOTION?

01:47:58 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
90 DAY CONTINUANCE ON THIS ITEM ABOUT

IMPACT FEES FOR PUBLIC SAFETY.

01:48:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION FROM MR. DINGFELDER.

SECOND FROM MR. MANISCALCO.

01:48:06 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
DO WE HAVE A DATE, PLEASE?

01:48:08 >>THE CLERK:
AUGUST 5th.

01:48:12 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AUGUST 5th UNDER STAFF REPORTS IN

THE AFTERNOON.

01:48:16 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIES.

01:48:22 >>LUIS VIERA:
AND THANK YOU, SIR.

CONSISTENT WITH THAT, I WANT TO SAY, YOU KNOW, WE REQUESTED

THE ADMINISTRATION LOOK AT WHETHER OR NOT AMERICAN RELIEF

DOLLARS COULD GO IN PART TO FUND FIRE STATIONS THAT ARE SUCH

CRITICAL NEEDS, EVERY TIME I BROUGHT UP STATION 13 HERE, I

WOULD PROBABLY BE A MILLIONAIRE BY NOW.

YESTERDAY I WAS AT K-BAR RANCH AND THAT'S ANOTHER AREA THAT

HAD SOME SERIOUS FIRE SAFETY DEFICITS.

CHANNELSIDE, OBVIOUSLY ANOTHER CRITICAL AREA, ET CETERA.




SO I THINK THIS IS PART OF A CONVERSATION IN TERMS OF HOW WE

ARE GOING TO FUND PUBLIC SAFETY, POLICE, FIRE, ET CETERA, IN

OUR VERY MUCH GROWING CITY.

BUT I HOPE THAT EVENTUALLY WE CAN GET A FINDING ON THOSE 81

OR SO MILLION DOLLARS THAT WE ARE GETTING WHEREVER THE

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT MAYBE CAN HELP US REDUCE THIS PUBLIC

SAFETY DEFICIT THAT WE HAVE.

THANK YOU, SIR.

01:49:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

75, DEPUTY CLERK.

ITEM 75.

MR. VIERA.

01:49:31 >>LUIS VIERA:
IF I MAY, MR. CHAIR.

I WAS LOOKING OVER HERE AT THE REPORT.

SO IT SEEMS TO SAY THAT AFTER THE FIRST YEAR OF ENGAGEMENT

CITY STAFF WILL EXPLORE OPPORTUNITIES TO REFINE AND EXPAND

THE PROGRAM.

SO WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT DOING IN THIS IS TO TAKE A LOOK

THROUGHOUT ALL OF OUR CITY OF TAMPA TO UNDERSERVED AREAS TO

SEE IF THE CITY OF TAMPA CAN HAVE SOME SORT OF YOUTH

ENGAGEMENT EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM THAT HELPS PUT YOUNG PEOPLE ON

A PATH TO BETTER SUCCESS AND COMMUNITY STAKE HOLDING BY

GIVING THEM WORK SKILLS, AND HAVING THEM WORK AND HELPING

NEIGHBORHOODS, ET CETERA, AND THIS IS MUCH BIGGER, BUT KIND

OF WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT IS A MUCH SMALLER VERSION OF R OF




MAYBE THE WPA WORKS, NATIONAL YOUTH ASSOCIATION OF THE 30s

THAT PUT UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE BACK TO WORK REBUILDING THEIR

COMMUNITIES.

AND WE HAVE A LOT OF COMMUNITIES HERE IN THE CITY OF TAMPA

THAT NEED A LOT OF REBUILDING, EAST TAMPA, SULPHUR SPRINGS,

PARTS OF NORTH TAMPA, PARTS OF WEST TAMPA, ET CETERA.

AND MANY, MANY OTHER AREAS.

AND I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD CERTAINLY LOOK

AT.

SO IF I SEE HERE CORRECTLY FROM THE REPORT, THEY ARE GOING

TO BE LOOKING AT THAT.

SO I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH A REASONABLE DELAY, BUT I AM GOING

TO MOTION -- AND IF I MAY I WILL JUST DO IT NOW, MAYBE TO

COME BACK WITH AN UPDATE ON THIS PROCESS IN SIX MONTHS, THE

FIRST WEEK IN OCTOBER.

AGAIN, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IF WE CAN ALL SUPPORT

INCLUDING THE ADMINISTRATION, I KNOW 110%, AND SO THAT WOULD

BE MY MOTION, JUST TO KEEP THAT UP.

01:51:18 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
DO YOU HAVE A DATE FOR THAT?

OCTOBER 7th?

MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MR. VIERA, SECONDED BY MR. CITRO.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIES.

WE GO TO ITEM NUMBER 77.




MR. MANISCALCO.

01:51:43 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. CHAIRMAN.

I SPOKE ABOUT THIS EARLIER.

COUNCILMAN MIRANDA HAD MADE SOME COMMENTS AS WELL.

BUT I HAD LOOKED AT THE CODE, AND I SAW THAT SHOULD YOU MOVE

SECTION 27-283.11-B, AND YOU PUT IT INTO SECTION 15-4.5, IT

WOULD GIVE MORE AND BETTER AUTHORITY TO THE POLICE

DEPARTMENT OR CODE ENFORCEMENT TO TICKET OR ISSUE CITATIONS

TO PEOPLE UNDER -- ON THE RIGHTS-OF-WAY AND WHATNOT,

COMMERCIAL VEHICLES AND WHATNOT, THAT ARE THROUGHOUT WEST

TAMPA, THROUGHOUT THE CITY, HYDE PARK, SOUTH TAMPA, I CAN GO

ON AND ON ABOUT COMPLAINTS I RECEIVED IN THE LAST SEVERAL

YEARS.

I HAVE RECEIVED A MEMO HERE AS EVERYBODY HAS, AND I SEE MR.

BHIDE AND OTHERS FROM THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT, I THINK MR.

PEREZ IS THERE, TOO, HOW WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS.

SO MY QUESTION IS, WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO -- DO I NEED TO

MAKE A MOTION TO SET THIS FOR FIRST READING?

HOW DO WE MOVE THIS PROCESS FORWARD, SIR?

01:52:59 >>PATRICK PEREZ:
ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY.

YES, MY MEMO, I HAVE CODE ENFORCEMENT ALSO ON IF THERE ARE

ANY QUESTIONS FROM THEM.

BASICALLY, THE MOTION WAS TO INVESTIGATE MOVING SECTION 287,

OR 27-283.

OUR RECOMMENDATION IS ACTUALLY CROSS REFERENCE AND KEEP IT




IN CHAPTER 27, CROSS REFERENCE CHAPTER 15 WHICH WOULD ALLOW

TPD TO USUAL YOU VIOLATIONS WHILE STILL ALLOWING CODE

ENFORCEMENT TO CONTINUE TO ENFORCE THE ZONING CODES.

SO BASICALLY WE HAVE A RECOMMENDATION IN THERE FOR PROPOSED

LANGUAGE TO AMEND SECTION 15-4.5, SO WE JUST NEED A

RECOMMENDATION FROM COUNCIL TO GO THROUGH THAT ROUTE.

01:53:53 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD AND MAKE THAT

MOTION FOR WHAT YOU JUST EXPLAINED REGARDING SECTION 15-4.5,

SO WE CAN USE THE AUTHORITY HERE LEGALLY, SO IT'S DEFENSIBLE

AND WE ARE PROTECTED, BUT STILL WE CAN ADDRESS THE CONCERNS

OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS, BECAUSE AGAIN I GET CALLS THAT SUNDAY

MORNING, YOU KNOW?

I TRY NOT TO BOTHER ANYBODY ON SUNDAY MORNING BUT IT'S PART

OF THE JOB.

I GOT A CALL AT 8 A.M. ONE SUNDAY, AND RIGHTFULLY SO.

I MEAN, PEOPLE HAVE WAITED FOR YEARS FOR SOME KIND OF

ENFORCEMENT.

THERE ARE MANY RECKLESS AND IRRESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS THAT

PARK WHEREVER THEY FEEL LIKE WITHOUT ANY CONSIDERATION FOR

THE NEIGHBORHOODS.

WITHOUT ANY CONSIDERATION TO PEOPLE ON BIKES OR CHILDREN.

THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

AND I DON'T WANT BLOOD ON MY HANDS. I DON'T WANT SOMEBODY

GETTING KILLED OR ANY OTHER PROBLEM, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE JUST

BEING IRRESPONSIBLE.




SO MY MOTION THEN WOULD BE THAT -- AND DO YOU NEED A

SPECIFIC TIME FOR THIS?

DOES IT HAVE TO GO TO AN ORDINANCE OR FIRST READING?

01:55:01 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
FIRST READING.

01:55:04 >>PATRICK PEREZ:
IT WILL BE AMENDING THE ORDINANCE, AND WE

WILL BRING IT BACK IF WE COULD FOR FIRST READING ON CITY

COUNCIL MEETING ON JUNE 3rd.

01:55:11 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
SO THE MOTION WOULD BE TO BRING THIS

BACK SECTION 15-4 .35 FOR FIRST READING.

WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A DRAFT ORDINANCE OR AN ORDINANCE

PREPARED FOR FIRST READING FOR THE MEETING JUNE 3rd.

DID YOU GET ALL OF THAT?

THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT ALREADY HAS THE LANGUAGE IN PLACE.

01:55:28 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF I CAN JUST SO IT'S CLEAR, I BELIEVE

THAT MR. PEREZ SAID THAT HE CAN HAVE -- LEGAL DEPARTMENT CAN

HAVE IT PUT ON THE AGENDA FOR FIRST READING CONSIDERATION ON

THAT DAY.

01:55:37 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE'LL TAKE THE VOTE THAT DAY AND MOVE

IT FORWARD.

I APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH SO I CAN RESPOND TO MY

CONSTITUENTS, BECAUSE I AM IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH THEM, AS

MANY OF THE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE, SO THEY KNOW THAT WE

ARE MOVING FORWARD WITH PROPER ENFORCEMENT AND THEY ARE

BEING LISTENED TO.

01:55:54 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. MANISCALCO HAS A MOTION ON THE FLOOR,




SECOND BY MR. MIRANDA.

ALL IN FAVOR?

OKAY.

ANYBODY OPPOSED?

01:56:04 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
WANT TO THANK COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO FOR

BRINGING IT UP AND DOING A VERY GOOD JOB, AND A SEMI WITH

TAMPA TRACTOR AND TRAILER AND THEY'LL LEAVE IT BARKED ON

ARMENIA AVENUE AND THERE ARE BUSINESSES THAT TAKE THE

DRIVER'S VEHICLES AND TRACTOR AND TRAILER AND LEAVE IN THE A

PARKED AREA BUT THEY CHARGE FOR IT.

SO THEY ARE LEAVING IT OUT ON THE STREET, AND SOME KID RUNS

OUT, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SEE IT.

THEY AREN'T GOING TO SEE THE CAR, THE CAR ISN'T GOING TO SEE

THEM.

AND THEN ON THE OTHER SIDE, THEY'LL TAKE THE TRACTOR HOME,

PARK IT ON THEIR FRONT YARD, CHANGE THE OIL.

I GOT PICTURES OF ALL THAT.

AND I UNDERSTAND WHAT'S HAPPENING.

I UNDERSTAND WHY.

BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, ENVIRONMENTALLY AND EVERYTHING ELSE,

IT'S JUST A CHAOTIC THING FOR THE CITY OF TAMPA TO GO

THROUGH.

I APPRECIATE WHAT COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO IS DOING.

01:56:56 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. CARLSON.

01:56:59 >>BILL CARLSON:
THANKS ALSO FOR BRINGING THIS UP.




THE OTHER THING IS THAT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO WE WORKED WITH

CHIEF BENNETT ON A UNIT OF CODE ENFORCEMENT OR EXPANDING THE

UNIT OF CODE ENFORCEMENT TO HELP REQUEST PARKING, AND I HAD

SOME CONVERSATION WITH HIM LAST WEEK ABOUT TWEAKING THAT A

LITTLE BIT ALSO SO THAT IT COULD BE MORE EFFECTIVE AS IT'S

STARTING TO ROLL OUT.

BUT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM.

ILLEGAL PARKING IN NEIGHBORHOODS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST AREAS

OF COMPLAINTS THAT I GET.

SO I APPRECIATE ANY HELP TO RECTIFY THAT.

01:57:32 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION ON THE FLOOR.

ANY MORE DISCUSSION?

MOTION BY MR. MANISCALCO.

SECOND BY MR. MIRANDA.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIES.

ALL RIGHT.

NUMBER 78.

01:57:52 >>KELLY AUSTIN:
DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES AND TALENT

DEVELOPMENT IS ON THE LINE.

01:58:08 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
GOOD AFTERNOON.

01:58:13 >> AT FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO QUICKLY SAY THANK YOU TO

CHAIRMAN MANISCALCO FOR HIS SERVICE AS CHAIR AND

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU, CHAIRMAN GUDES, ON YOUR NEW




APPOINTMENT.

I'M HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR HAVE ANY MORE DISCUSSION

AROUND ITEM NUMBER 78, WHICH IS REGARDING ALL THE CITY

CLERK'S OFFICE, ON STANDBY FOR ANY QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSION.

01:58:38 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I MADE THAT MOTION.

AND I JUST NEEDED SOME CLARIFICATION.

I DID READ THE MEMO, BUT AGAIN I DID MAKE A PHONE CALL TO

YOU.

AND WE KIND OF DISCUSSED A LITTLE BIT.

IT WAS A LITTLE VAGUE IN REFERENCE TO A STUDY, REVIEW AND

NUMBERS.

I DON'T THINK A LOT OF COUNCIL MEMBERS WOULD CHIME IN AS

MUCH BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S CLEAR ON WHAT WE ARE GOING

TO DO.

BECAUSE AS I LOOK AT THE SPREADSHEET OF OTHER DEPARTMENTS,

CITIES ABOUT OUR SIZE, THIS CITY IS GROWING, AND IT'S

GROWING RAPIDLY, AND WHEN I LOOK AT OTHER PLACES TO

COMPARABLE PAY, WE ARE LAGGING BEHIND.

AND I TALK ABOUT THE CITY AS A WHOLE.

WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT THE PAY SCALE FOR ALL EMPLOYEES.

AND AGAIN WHEN IS THE LAST TIME A STUDY HAS BEEN DONE TO

MATCH UP TO OTHER CITIES WITHIN THE STATE, A ROUND THE

STATE, WORKFORCE THAT WE HAVE.

SO YOU CAN TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT SO THIS COUNCIL CAN




KNOW WHERE WE ARE AT WITH THAT, AND WE STILL HAVEN'T GOT THE

CART TO MOVE WITH THE HORSE YET.

01:59:58 >>KELLY AUSTIN:
SURE.

THANK YOU FOR THAT FEEDBACK.

IF I COULD JUST ZOOM OUT A LITTLE BIT TO TALK ABOUT THE

PROCESS, NOT SPECIFIC TO THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE BUT THE

PROCESS IN GENERAL, AND THAT WILL ONLY TAKE JUST A MINUTE.

WE HAVE A PROCESS IN PLACE WHERE OUR DEPARTMENT HEADS ARE

TASKED WITH IDENTIFYING ANY NEEDS OR CHANGES IN THEIR

PARTICULAR AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY TO SOME OF THE QUESTIONS

THAT THEY REGULARLY ROUTINELY ASK THEMSELVES ARE, HAS MY

WORK VOLUME CHANGED?

HAS THE PAST BECOME MORE COMPLEX?

WHAT KIND OF TIME AM I RUNNING IN MY DEPARTMENT?

WE MET WITH THE MAYOR'S JUNIOR STAFF AT LEAST QUARTERLY AND

SHE ENCOURAGES US TO LOOK BACKWARDS AND ASK OURSELVES THE

QUESTION, WHAT TASKS AREN'T NECESSARY, AND CAN SOMETHING BE

DONE MORE EFFICIENTLY?

AND SO WE ALL ARE TASKED WITH DOING THAT.

IF WE HAVE A NEED THAT WE IDENTIFIED, AND WE NEED TO BRING

THAT FORWARD, DURING THE BUDGET PROCESS.

AND IF IT IS NOT DONE DURING THE BUDGET PROCESS, WHICH AS WE

ALL KNOW MANY THINGS HAPPEN DURING THE COPY OF THE YEAR, IF

IT'S OUTSIDE THE BUDGET PROCESS THEN WHAT WE DO IS WE WORK

WITH OUR BUDGET ANALYSTS AND HUMAN RESOURCES AND SOME OF THE




THINGS THAT WE DO, WHICH WE DO DECISIONS, FULL TIME

EQUIVALENCIES, WE MIGHT COMBINE SOME VACANCIES, MIGHT CREATE

SOME NEW POSITIONS, MIGHT RECLASS OR REGRADE, WHATEVER IT

TAKES TO ACCOMPLISH THE MADE NEED TO ENSURE THAT THIS IS

MOVING FORWARD AS EFFECTIVELY AND EFFICIENTLY AS POSSIBLE

WHILE BEING BUDGET CONSCIOUS.

LAST YEAR, THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE CONTACTED HUMAN RESOURCES

WITH A COUPLE OF REQUESTS AND AFTER THE ANALYSIS WAS DONE WE

WERE ABLE TO CONVERTS ONE PART-TIME POSITION TO A FULL-TIME

POSITION, AND ALSO READJUSTED ONE OF THE SALARIES, AND WE

SUGGESTED AT THAT TIME PERHAPS SECURING A CONTRACTOR DUE TO

AN EXTENDED ABSENCE OF ONE OF THE EMPLOYEES.

AS A RESULT OF THIS MOTION, THE CHIEF OF STAFF AND MR.

ROGERO AND MYSELF MET WITH BE THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE TO

BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT WERE THE NEEDS ANDS THE REQUESTS THAT

WERE NOT BEING MET OR THAT THERE WAS CONCERNS OVER, AND THAT

CONVERSATION KIND OF WENT IN TWO LANES, ONE LANE BEING

REALLY FOCUSED ON THE FACILITIES, AND THEN THE OTHER LANE

BEING FOCUSED ON THE VOLUME OF WORK.

AND PERHAPS NECESSARY EVALUATION OF THE DEPARTMENT AND THE

TASKS AND THE DUTIES.

SO THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE WAS GUIDED AT THAT POINT TO MAKE

BUDGET REQUESTS, BECAUSE THIS IS A TIME THAT WE ARE DOING

THAT EXERCISE, AND THEN CERTAINLY MY OFFICE IS LOOKING AT

SOME SALARY COMPARERS, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY ONE THING,




CHAIRMAN GUDES, WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, THERE ARE SOME ASPECTS

OF OUR COMPENSATION THAT PERHAPS WE PAY LESS THAN OTHERS,

BUT WHEN I LOOK ACROSS THERE ARE ALSO MANY, MANY ASPECTS

WHERE OUR COMPENSATION IS AT OR GREATER THAN, AND I ALWAYS

TRY TO JUST BE MINDFUL OF OUR TOTAL COMPENSATION PLAN WHICH

IS NOT JUST THE SALARY, NOT THAT THAT'S NOT IMPORTANT, SO I

NOT TAKING AWAY FROM THAT, BUT GENERAL EMPLOYEES HAVE A

ZERO CONTRIBUTION, GENERAL PENSION AVAILABLE TO THEM, ZERO

CONTRIBUTION ON MEDICAL COVERAGE FOR THEMSELVES, ACCESS TO

THE WELLNESS CENTER AT NO CHARGE, ZERO COST PRESCRIPTION,

YOU KNOW, THE ACCRUAL OF ANNUAL AND SICK LEAVE.

SO WE LOOK AT ALL THAT WHEN WE EVALUATE OW HOW WE STAND UP

IN THE MARKETPLACE.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE CAN'T ALWAYS DO BETTER OR CONTINUES TO

TAKE LOOKS.

AS A RESULT OF OUR CONVERSATION WITH THE CITY CLERK'S

OFFICE, THERE ARE SOME ITEMS THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT, AND

THEN AGAIN, MS. FOXX-KNOWLES WAS DIRECTED TO PUTTING HER

REQUESTS INTO THE BUDGET PROCESS, BECAUSE THIS IS THE TIME

THAT WE ARE DOING THAT EXERCISE, AND HOPEFULLY BASED ON THAT

ANALYSIS WE ARE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE WHATEVER NEEDS ARE

NECESSARY IN ORDER TO KEEP ENSURING THAT TASKS AND DUTIES

ARE GETTING ACCOMPLISHED IN A TIMELY FASHION.

SO THAT WOULD BE OUR GOAL FOR EVERYBODY.

AND THAT WAS A LONG-WINDED ANSWER SO I APOLOGIZE.




02:04:16 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THAT'S OKAY.

YOU GAVE ME SOME ANSWERS.

YOU TALKED ABOUT THE FACILITY PART.

I WONDERED WHY IS IT IF WE PUT ALL THIS WORK INTO THE

CHAMBERS THAT WE DID NOT BUTT THE WORK INTO THEIR OFFICE

OVER THERE?

BECAUSE THEY ARE RIGHT NEXT TO US.

THERE'S A DOOR RIGHT HERE IN THIS CHAMBERS THAT L.

SO TO ME, HOW DO WE NOT ADD THAT ALL IN AT ONE SHOT TO MAKE

SURE EVERYONE IS SAFE?

WHEN I LOOK AROUND AND SEE THAT, I QUESTION THAT RIGHT AWAY,

YOU DID THIS OVER HERE BUT WE STILL HAVE ACCESS.

SO I DON'T KNOW, HOPEFULLY WE CAN FIX THAT THROUGH THE

BUDGETING PROCESS AND MAKE SURE THEY ARE SECURE AT WELL

BECAUSE PEOPLE COME UP HERE AND WALK THROUGH HERE ALL THE

TIME AND GO RIGHT TO THE OFFICE.

SO I AM HOPING WE CAN SECURE THEM AS WELL BECAUSE AGAIN THEY

NOT ONLY WORK FOR THE ADMINISTRATION, I WANT TO MAKE THAT

CLEAR, THEY ALSO WORK FOR COUNCIL FOR OUR CHARTER.

SO THEY WORK FOR TWO HOUSES.

SO WE HAVE TO BE MINDFUL OVER HERE AS THE CHAIR HERE, I WANT

TO MAKE SURE THAT MY HOUSE IS PROTECTED AND MAKE SURE PEOPLE

IN MY HOUSE ARE PROTECTED AND THEY ALSO ARE BEING

COMPENSATED CORRECTLY QUESTION I LOOK ACROSS THE SPECTRUM.

HOPEFULLY WE ARE GOING TO LOOK AT THOSE THINGS IN ANEW




BUDGET YEAR.

MR. ROGERO IS ON THE LINE THERE.

ALSO WHEN I LOOK AT SALARIES, AND I LOOK AT ADMINISTRATORS,

MS. FOXX-KNOWLES, I LOOK AT HER SALARY, HER SALARY IS WAY

BELOW EVEN SOME OF THE ADMINISTRATORS HERE WITHIN THE CITY.

THAT'S CONCERNING TO ME, HER BEING AN ADMINISTRATOR OVER THE

CLERK'S OFFICE WHICH IS A BIG RESPONSIBILITY TO THIS CITY.

SO I AM HOPING AND I AM ASKING TO MAKE SURE THAT HER REVIEW

IS IN THERE AS WELL SO THIS COUNCIL CAN REVIEW FOR THE

UPCOMING BUDGET.

BECAUSE I THINK SHE NEEDS TO BE COMPENSATED AS WELL, AND NOT

JUST SIT BACK AND BE NICE AND WANT TO GO ALONG TO HELP OUT

THE OTHER EMPLOYEES, BUT ALSO HELP HERSELF BECAUSE SHE WORKS

HARD HERE FOR ALL OF US.

SO I'M HOPING THAT IT WILL HAPPEN, AND AGAIN, FACILITYWISE

AS WELL, AND AGAIN, I AM GLAD WE ARE LOOKING INTO THIS

PROCESS.

I DON'T KNOW IF ANYBODY ELSE --

02:06:28 >>KELLY AUSTIN:
ABSOLUTELY, YES, SIR.

02:06:29 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER, I SAW YOUR HAND, SIR?

02:06:33 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
YES, I JUST WANTED TO CHIME IN AND

REITERATE WHAT MR. CHAIRMAN HAS SPOKEN TO.

IT'S VERY SAD THAT SANDY TOOK ILL, AND SHE DID AN AMAZING

JOB FOR 30 YEARS, AND WE ALL LOVE HER DEARLY.

BUT I DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S EVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO COME BACK




UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS.

INSTEAD, SULING HAS JUMPED IN AND PROBABLY DOING HER FORMER

JOBS, AND SOME OF SANDY'S JOBS, AND I DON'T KNOW THE DETAILS

OF THE CLERK'S OFFICE, BUT I AM SURE THAT THERE'S SOME

SIGNIFICANT READJUSTMENT THAT NEEDS TO GO ON.

THAT'S MY UNDERSTANDING.

COUNCIL TRIES VERY HARD NOT TO BUTT INTO THE

ADMINISTRATION'S PLACE IN TERMS OF SALARIES AND THAT SORT OF

THING, BUT THIS IS AN AREA THAT IS NEAR AND DEAR TO US

BECAUSE WE DO WORK SO CLOSELY WITH THE CLERK'S OFFICE.

SO MAYBE DURING THE BUDGET PROCESS THIS SUMMER WE'LL SEE

SOME SIGNIFICANT CHANGES.

I THINK THAT'S THE DIRECTION MR. CHAIRMAN IS ASKING US TO

GO.

02:07:45 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU FOR THAT.

AGAIN, SULING OUT THERE, SHE HAS A LOT OF CREDENTIALS BEHIND

HER BELT AT THIS TIME.

AND WE HAVE TO ALSO LOOK AT THAT.

SHE'S A DEPUTY CLERK OF THE SHE'S NOT A CLERK.

SHE'S A DEPUTY CLERK.

AND SO WE NEED TO LOOK AT THAT AS WELL.

AND HER CREDENTIALS.

SHE'S EDUCATED.

THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT SCHOOLS SHE'S BEEN TO NOW ACROSS

THE STATE.




I THINK WE HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT AS WELL.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, GENTLEMEN, BEFORE WE MOVE ON?

I THANK BOTH OF YOU VERY, VERY MUCH AND HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET

SOME OF THESE THINGS MOVING FORWARD BEFORE NEXT YEAR'S

BUDGET.

02:08:21 >>KELLY AUSTIN:
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY THIS

AFTERNOON.

02:08:23 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

02:08:23 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE A FULL BOARD.

DO YOU WANT TO DO ITEM NUMBER 8?

02:08:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
COUNCIL MEMBERS, SOME OF YOU WERE DELAYED

GETTING BACK FROM LUNCH AND I KNOW WE HAVE GUYS GETTING

THEMSELVES TOGETHER.

MR. DINGFELDER WANTED TO PUT A MOTION ON THE FLOOR FOR ITEM

8.

I WILL LET HIM GO AND REHASH WHAT HE WAS TRYING TO TELL THE

COUNCIL, AND IF HE WOULD LIKE TO PUT ANOTHER MOTION ON THE

FLOOR TO GO AHEAD FROM THAT TIME.

02:08:58 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AS MR. MIRANDA WAS WRAPPING UP, HE HAD

STATED THAT PERHAPS A WORKSHOP ON THESE ISSUES MIGHT BE MORE

APPROPRIATE AND WE CAN HAVE A LONGER DETAILED DISCUSSION

WITH INPUT FROM EVERYBODY INSTEAD OF RUSHING HERKY JERKY

INTO DOING SOMETHING TODAY OR TWO WEEKS FROM NOW.

SO WITH THAT, MY MOTION EARLIER WAS TO CONTINUE ITEM 8 AS

WELL AS INCLUDING THE IDEA THAT I THREW OUT TODAY, I WILL




CALL IT AMENDED ITEM 8, AND PUT THAT ON A WORKSHOP IN OUR

JUNE WORKSHOP, WHICH IS, WHAT, FOURTH WEEK IN JUNE, MARTY,

OR THIRD?

02:09:49 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THE 24th IS?

02:09:53 >> JUNE 24.

02:09:54 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AND WE LOOKED AT THAT WORKSHOP AND IT

DOESN'T LOOK TOO, TOO BUSY.

SO I JUST WANTED A FULL BOARD HERE TO ADDRESS THAT AND VOTE

ON IT AND SEE WHERE IT GOES.

02:10:04 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MR. DINGFELDER.

DO I HAVE A SECOND?

SECOND BY MR. CARLSON.

ANY DISCUSSION?

YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, MR. SHELBY.

02:10:17 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
JUST TO SET IT WITH TO ALLOW AT 11:30 A.M.

IF WE ARE SPACING THINGS A HALF HOUR APART OR IS THERE

ANOTHER TIME?

IT WOULD NOT SHOW UP ON THE AGENDA, CORRECT?

02:10:31 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I ACCEPT THAT AS A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT.

02:10:33 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
11:30.

THANK YOU.

02:10:35 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION ON THE FLOOR.

ANY DISCUSSION?

02:10:38 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I WILL JUST --

02:10:44 >>LUIS VIERA:
I WILL JUST SAY SOMETHING IF I MAY.




I HAD SECONDED IT UNDER WHAT I NOW CALL THE CLARENCE DARROW

RULE.

IF MR. CARLSON SECOND IT, I WILL BE RESPECTFULLY VOTING NO.

AGAIN I VOTED AGAINST THE CONTINUANCE OF NUMBER 8 ORIGINALLY

AND I WILL DO IT HERE AGAIN.

JUST MY THOUGHTS.

02:10:59 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
THANKS VERY MUCH.

I AGAIN STATED MANY TIMES TODAY I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM

WHAT PLANNING AND WHAT MR. RANDY GOERS HAD TO SAY, AND THEN

I THINK I CAN MAKE A ADJUSTMENT BETTER AFTER THAT.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

02:11:16 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

02:12:00 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

02:12:02 >>JOSEPH CITRO:

MA'AM?

OKAY.

02:12:17 >>ABBYE FEELEY:

STRIKE MY EARLIER MOTION.

I SPOKE WITH STAFF DURING LUNCH.

I JUST ASKED HIM TO READ THIS OUT SO THAT THE PUBLIC

WATCHING, I IN PARTICULAR HAVE A LOT OF AT ANY TIME WHO ARE

CONCERNED ABOUT THE WAY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN DONE

IN THE PAST AND I ASKED ROB AND MICHELLE LOTS OF QUESTIONS

AND THEY ANSWERED MY QUESTIONS, AND I JUST WANTED FOR THE

RECORD TO LET THEM DIRECTLY ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT THE

PUBLIC IS GOING TO ASK US LATER.

THANK YOU.




02:16:08 >>ROB ROSNER:
CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYBODY IN THEIR NEW

POSITIONS.

AND I APPRECIATE THE TIME TO SPEAK.

JUST TO OPEN UP A QTI PROGRAM HAS EXPIRED WITH THE STATE AND

THEY HAVE NOT REINSTATE ADD NEW PROGRAM BUT THESE TWO ITEMS

31 AND 342 ARE ITEMS THAT WERE APPROVED IN THE LATE 2018.

QTI IS A STATE SPONSORED INCENTIVE PROGRAM TO INCENTIVIZE

PROGRAMS TO EXPAND TO THE STATE OR INCREASE THEIR NUMBERS OF

FULL TIME EMPLOYEES.

APPLICATIONS GO THROUGH THE STATE, AND ARE VETTED BY THE

STATE OF FLORIDA AND THE LOCAL PARTICIPATING JURISDICTIONS.

THE CITY, COUNTY AND STATE.

THERE IS AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE STATE AND THE COMPANY AND

THE STATE VERIFIES JOBS THAT ARE CREATED AGREED UPON BY THE

COMPANY.

INCENTIVES ARE ONLY PAID AFTER THE JOBS ARE CREATED AND

VERIFIED PER THE AGREEMENT.

STATE REVIEWS ALL EMPLOYMENT RECORDS FOR EVERY YEAR TO

ENSURE THAT THE JOBS CREATED ARE MAINTAINED DURING THE

DURATION OF THE AGREEMENT.

ANNUAL INCENTIVES ARE RECEIVED WILL NEVER EXCEED THE TAXES I

PAID BY THE COMPANY DURING EACH INCENTIVE YEAR.

HOWEVER THE JOBS CREATED MUST PAY A MINIMUM OF 115% OF THE

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY AVERAGE AT THE TIME THE AGREEMENT WAS

EXECUTED.




THERE ARE TWO QTI REQUESTS BEFORE COUNCIL TODAY, OUR

REQUESTS FROM THE CITY TO PARTICIPATE IN QTI INCENTIVE

PROGRAM, AND MOVE INTO THE CITY FROM THE COUNTY LOCATION.

SO THE TOTAL INCENTIVE FROM THE STATE WOULD BE 659 AND 500.

THE STATE PAYS 80% OF THAT WHICH REPRESENTS $527,600.

THE COUNTY WILL PAY 11.5% WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY $75.

THEY PAID A LITTLE MORE THAN THAT BECAUSE SOME OF THAT HAS

ALREADY BEEN PAID OUT.

AND THEN THE CITY WILL PAY 8.5% WHICH SHOWS ABOUT 56,212.50,

WHICH IS THE REST OF OUR PORTION.

DURING THE REMAINING YEARS OF THE AGREEMENT IF THE COMPANY

LEFT THE CITY.

NORMALLY WE PASS BOTH RESOLUTIONS AT THE TIME, AND BECAUSE

WE DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE GOING TO LAND IN THE CITY OR THE

COUNTY BECAUSE THEY ARE DOING SELECTION PROCESS.

THIS ONE ACTUALLY OUTGREW THEIR SPACE AND ARE MOVING INTO

NEW SPACE I.WANTED TO CLARIFY THOSE THINGS FOR ITEMS 31 AND

32.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

02:18:35 >>BILL CARLSON:
THERE HAVE BEEN A COUPLE OF HIGH PROFILE

FAILURES IN THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WORLD IN TAMPA IN THE

LAST FEW YEARS.

GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIZE THAT HAD FAILURES AND IT'S QTI WHICH

THE OLD PROGRAM STILL REGULATED BY THE STATE.

AND THE STATE IS GOING TO VET IT IN ADDITION TO ALL THE




VETTING THE CITY HAS DONE AND ANY OTHER GROUPS.

SO THE FACT THAT THE STATE IS INVOLVED, AND THERE ARE

SEVERAL GROUPS WATCHING IT, WE CAN'T GUARANTEE THAT EVERY

INVESTMENT WILL DO WELL, AND THE QTI IS AN INVESTMENT IN OUR

COMMUNITY, NOT IN A COMPANY.

THANK YOU.

02:24:14 >>RON VILA:
HISTORIC PRESERVATION.




I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE MY SCREEN TO DO A FULL PRESENTATION

FOR YOU.

THIS IS FOR 1302 EAST 7TH AVENUE.

THIS IS FOR A HISTORIC PRESERVATION APPLICATION.

IS IT LOADED YET?

02:24:58 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
NO, SIR.

02:24:59 >>THE CLERK:

[ LAUGHTER ]

THERE WE GO.

02:25:35 >>RON VILA:
I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ALL YOUR TIME.

I KNOW IT'S BEEN A LONG MORNING.

THIS IS A BACKGROUND AND BENEFITS OF THE AD VALOREM TAX

EXEMPTION.

IT HELPS TO STIMULATE THE HISTORIC DISTRICTS AND MULTIPLE

PROPERTIES THAT EASES THE BURDEN FOR MAINTAINING SOME OF

THESE PROPERTIES WITH THESE TAX INCENTIVES THAT IT HAS,

ELIGIBLE PROPERTIES ARE LOCAL LANDMARKS, HISTORIC

PROPERTIES, AND BUILDINGS WITHIN THE LOCAL HISTORIC

DISTRICT.




AND WITHIN THE DISTRICTS, EVEN THE BARRIO LATINO COMMISSION

OR ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION WILL REVIEW THESE

PROJECTS.

I WANT TO SHARE A PICTURE LOOKING DOWN 7th AVENUE TO THE

EAST FROM 13th STREET.

THE BUILDING IN QUESTION IS OVER HERE.

YOU SEE HOW IT HAS RECESSED OPENINGS, SIDEWALK, AND THE

CANOPY MORE HORIZONTAL FROM THE FACADE, AND THEN THE

ARTICULATION UP TOP.

THIS IS SHOWING A PHOTO OF THE FRONT FACADE FROM THE 30s.

YOU SEE IT HAS PEDESTRIAN FRONTING ON THE BOTTOM AND THE

PARAPET ON TOP.

THIS IS THE SANBORN MAP OF 1929, IN THE AREA IN QUESTION.

THIS PORTION OF THE BUILDING, YOU SEE THE CONCENTRATION OF

THE BRICK BUILDINGS ALONG 7th AVENUE, THE BRICK IS

INDICATED WITH THE RED OR THE PINK HE WILL STRAYINGS.

THIS IS THE BUILDING PRIOR TO RENOVATION.

THE BUILDING HAS STUCCO APPLIED TO THE BRICKS, AND AS THE

CANOPY CAME OUT MORE OF AN ANGLE THAT IS NOT HISTORICALLY

CORRECT.

AND THEN THERE WERE SOME WINDOWS THAT WERE COVERED UP.

AND THEN HOW IT LOOKS TODAY.

THE WINDOWS WERE REORIENTED TO LET IN THE NATURAL LIGHT AND

THEN YOU SEE THE STOREFRONT AND THE CANOPY TO BE MORE PERIOD

APPROPRIATE.




THIS IS LOOKING AT THE FRONT PRIOR TO REHABILITATION.

YOU SEE THE STUCCO AND THE STOREFRONTS HAVE BEEN ALTERED,

WITH A BARREL TILE ON TOP, AND THEN CURRENTLY HOW IT LOOKS

TAKE LOOKING AT THE FULL FACADE FROM THE EASTERN PORTION ALL

THE WAY BACK DOWN TO 13th STREET.

AS PART OF THIS PROJECT, THEY WANTED TO REENGAGE THE ALLEY,

AND HAVE THE ALLEY MORE OF A PEDESTRIAN EXPERIENCE AS WELL.

SO THE REAR OF THE BUILDING WAS ALL ENCLOSED AND YOU SEE THE

CONDITION OF THE ALLEY.

AFTER REHABILITATION, THE BRICKS WERE LAID IN THE ALLEY AND

THEN THE STOREFRONTS ALONG HERE THAT HAVE BUSINESSES.

MOVING TO THE INTERIOR, EVERYTHING WAS GUTTED.

THE DROP CEILINGS WERE IN PLACE.

AND THEN THIS FACADE IS THE ONE WHERE THE WINDOWS WERE

CLOSED OFF WITH THE STUCCO.

AND THEN HERE YOU SEE THAT THE DROP CEILINGS WERE REMOVED.

YOU SEE THE AMALIUM WAS RE-CREATED, AND THE WINDOWS TO LET

IN THE NATURAL LIGHT TO HAVE A MORE PLEASURABLE WORK

EXPERIENCE.

PRIOR TO REHABILITATION.

AND THEN AFTER REHABILITATION WHEN THE DROP CEILINGS WERE

REMOVED, THE PERIOD SKYLIGHTS TO LET IN THAT NATURAL LIGHT,

TO CREATE THAT BENEFICIAL WORK EXPERIENCE.

THIS IS ACCESSIBILITY, AND THEN HOW IT LOOKS TODAY.

THEN THROUGH UPSTAIRS THE ADAPTIVE REUSE SOME RESIDENTIAL




COMPONENTS.

THIS IS PRIOR TO REHABILITATION.

AND THEN AFTER REHABILITATION, THE FLOORS WERE REPAIRED AND

BROUGHT BACK TO THEIR LUSTER.

THE EXTERIOR WALLS.

AND THEN JUST A COUPLE MORE SHOTS OF HOW IT LOOKS TODAY.

SO THE BARRIO LATINO COMMISSION REVIEWED THIS ON JANUARY 26,

2021, AND FELT THAT IT MET THE SECRETARY OF INTERIOR

STANDARDS.

I AM HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS FIRST AD VALOREM.

02:29:40 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

02:29:43 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:

THE NEXT AD VALOREM I AM GOING TO PRESENT TO

YOU, IS THIS ON YOUR SCREEN, 3108 EAST JEFFERSON STREET?

02:31:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YES.

02:31:22 >>RON VILA:
THIS IS ALSO HISTORIC PRESERVATION TAX

EXEMPTION.

BURDEN FOR THE MAINTENANCE, THE ELIGIBLE PROPERTIES ARE

DESIGNATED LOCAL LANDMARKS, HISTORIC PROPERTIES AND




PROPERTIES WITHIN THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.

AND THIS WAS REVIEWED BY THE ARCHITECTURE REVIEW COMMISSION.

THIS BUILDING WAS REFERRED TO AS THE GRAHAM BOTTLING

BUILDING.

YOU SEE THE NATURE OF IT IS RED.

IT IS THE COLOR OF THE SANBORN MAP WHICH INDICATES THAT IT

WAS BRICK CONSTRUCTION, AND THEN YOU SEE THE DENSITY IN THE

IMMEDIATE VICINITY IN THE YELLOW WHICH IS PRECONSTRUCTION

WITH A HOUSING STOCK.

THIS IS BEFORE RENOVATION AND AFTER RENOVATION.

THE BUILDING WAG VACANT FOR MANY YEARS.

AS THIS PROGRAM WAS USED TO EXERCISE THE BENEFIT A THAT IT

HAS AND THE VIABILITY IT HAS IN THE DISTRICT.

PART OF THIS BUILDING WAS HIT BY LICENSE.

YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE BRICKS HERE.

THIS WAS ALL IN THE STREET AT ONE TIME.

IT WAS BEING RECONSTRUCTED.

AND HOW IT LOOKS TODAY ON THE BOTTOM.

PORTION OF THE BUILDING WAS DISMANTLED WHICH WAS HERE.

AND THE DEMOLITION OF PART OF THE BUILDINGS THEY RE-CREATED

A PARKING AREA.

SO THIS BUILDING MEETS ALL PARKING REQUIREMENTS.

AS PART OF THE DEMOLITION FOR THAT PORTION, THE BRICK WAS

SENSE DIFFERENTLY REMOVED, AND THEN REINSTATED INTO A

BUILDING WHERE THERE WAS NEED FOR THE BRICK TO BE




REINSTATED.

MOVING TO THE INTERIOR, YOU SEE THE HEAVY STRUCTURAL

MEMBERS, PART OF THE FEATURES IN THE BUILDING AND

IMPLEMENTED INTO THE OVERALL CONSTRUCTION AND BECAME A

VISIBLE COMPONENT OF THE ADAPTIVE REUSE OF THE LIVING SPACES

THAT ARE THERE TODAY.

PART OF THE SKELETON WAS THE SCOPE OF THE OWNERS, HOW THEY

WANTED TO LEAVE IT.

SO THE BEFORE YOU SEE HOW SOME WAS PEELING AWAY, AND WORKED

ON THE BUILDING, PEELED AWAY WHAT WAS LOOSE, AND LEFT BEHIND

WHAT WAS ENGAGED INTO THE BUILDING THAT SHOWS SOME OF THE

FRAMEWORK OF THE BUILDING.

INTERIOR, THEY HAD SOME WOOD SIDING ON THE UPPER LEVEL.

THE WOOD WAS POLISHED AND RETAINED.

AND THEN LASTLY, THIS IS 3108 NORTH JEFFERSON, ON FEBRUARY

3rd, 2021, HISTORIC REVIEW COMMISSION VOTED TO RECOMMEND

THE CITY COUNCIL -- [~DISTORTION~]

I AM HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

02:34:24 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

02:34:26 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
IT SAYS GRAHAM BOTTLING WORK AND THEN IT

SAYS BOOTLEGGER. IS THERE ANY INTERESTING STORY OF

BOOTLEGGERS?

02:34:46 >> THE BOOTLEGGERS IS THE NAME OF THE ESTABLISHMENT TODAY.

THE OWNERS WANTED TO ATTACH THAT TO IT SO IT HAS A LITTLE

MYSTIQUE TO THE.




02:34:52 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
SO WE DON'T HAVE A HISTORICAL REFERENCE

TO THAT, JUST A NICE NICKNAME?

02:34:59 >>RON VILA:
CORRECT.

02:35:04 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:

02:41:00 >>ELISE BATSEL:
ELISE BATSEL, STEARNS, WEAVER, MILLER, 401

EAST JACKSON STREET.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I AM NOT IN THE HABIT OF INTRODUCING ANY NEW

EVIDENCE INTO THE RECORD AT SECOND READING BUT I FEEL

COMPELLED TO ADDRESS TWO SIGNIFICANT LEGAL ISSUES RELATED TO

MR. DINGFELDER'S LINE OF QUESTIONING ABOUT THE CHLORINE

ISSUES THAT OCCURRED DURING THE APRIL 8 HEARING AND TO

DOCUMENT THEM FOR THE RECORD, SHOULD COUNCIL DECIDE TODAY

NOT TO APPROVE THIS PROJECT.

SPECIFICALLY, I WANT TO ADDRESS THIS LINE OF QUESTIONING TO

MS. ILA REGARDING THE 1998 LEAKS AT CHEMICAL FORMULATORS,

THE 2005 LEAKS AT CHEMICAL FORMULATORS, AND THE GRANITEVILLE

RAIL CAR CRASH.

IT IS VERY LEGALLY IMPORTANT TO NOTE FOR THE RECORD THAT

PRIOR TO HIS QUESTIONING OF MS. ILA THE RECORD WAS

COMPLETELY DEVOID OF ANY EVIDENCE OF THESE THREE MATTERS.

THE INTRODUCTION OF THIS EVIDENCE BY MR. DINGFELDER PRESENTS

TWO DISTINCT LEGAL PROBLEMS THAT I AM COMPELLED TO PUT

INFORMATION ON THE RECORD TO PRESERVE THE RIGHT TO APPEAL.

THE FIRST SCENARIO INVOLVED COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER'S

QUESTIONS STATING THAT HE GOOGLED CHLORINE SAFETY AND

CHEMICAL FORMULATORS BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND HEARING.

FLORIDA LAW IS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THAT MEMBERS OF A LOCAL

COUNCIL OR COMMISSION CANNOT ACT ON THEIR OWN INFORMATION.

AS EARLY AS 1962, THE COURT IN THORN V. FLORIDA REAL ESTATE




COMMISSION SPOKE DIRECTLY TO THIS POINT AND SAY IN PART,

COUNCIL WHO ARE REQUIRED TO MAKE A DETERMINATION ON OR AFTER

A HEARING IN THE EXERCISE OF A QUASI-JUDICIAL FUNCTION

CANNOT ACT ON THEIR OWN INFORMATION.

IT IS IMPROPER FOR SUCH AN OFFICER TO BASE HIS DECISION OR

FINDING UPON FACTS GATHERED FROM ITS OWN RECORD WITHOUT

INTRODUCING THE RECORDS INTO EVIDENCE.

THIS CONFLICT WAS RECENTLY REAFFIRMED BY THE FLORIDA COURTS

IN 2020.

MY LEGAL CONCERN IS THIS.

THERE IS NO WAY AT THIS JUNCTURE FOR ME OR ANY OF US

INVOLVED TODAY TO KNOW WHAT INFORMATION MR. DINGFELDER

REVIEWED AND GOOGLE SEARCHED.

NOTHING WAS ENTERED INTO THE RECORD.

WE CAN NEVER KNOW ALL THE WEB PAGES OR SITES THAT MR.

DINGFELDER REVIEWED IN HIS INDEPENDENT RESEARCH.

WE CAN NEVER KNOW WHAT INFORMATION HE LEARNED IN HIS

RESEARCH AND HOW THAT MIGHT INFORM HIS THINKING ON THIS

ISSUE.

AND EVEN HIS THINKING UNCONSCIOUSLY.

UNFORTUNATELY AT THIS POINT IN TIME IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO CURE

THIS PREJUDICE TO THE APPLICANT.

THERE IS A SECOND SCENARIO WHICH PRESENTS ANOTHER LEGAL

PROBLEM.

AND I AM COMPELLED TO PUT ADDITIONAL FACTS INTO THE RECORD.




AS YOU MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW THE ISSUE OF PREJUDICIAL EX PARTE

COMMUNICATION HAS BEEN WELL ESTABLISHED BY FLORIDA COURTS

SINCE 1991.

THE THIRD DISTRICT COURT OF APPEALS HELD IN THE SEMINAL CASE

OF JENNINGS VERSUS DADE COUNTY THAT EX PARTE COMMUNICATIONS

ARE INHERENTLY IMPROPER AND ARE A QUASI-JUDICIAL PROCEEDING.

QUASI-JUDICIAL OFFICERS SHOULD AVOID ALL SUCH CONTACT WHERE

THEY ARE IDENTIFIABLE.

AND FURTHER, THESE EX PARTE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PRESUMED

PREJUDICIAL, AND IT'S COUNCIL'S BURDEN TO PROVE SUCH

COMMUNICATIONS WERE NOT PREJUDICIAL BY SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT

EVIDENCE.

I AM MERELY SUBMITTING FACTS, AND THE FIRST FACT IS THAT AN

E-MAIL WAS SENT TO COUNCIL BY A CITIZEN AT 5:54 P.M. ON THE

EVENING OF APRIL 8 HEARING.

WE OBTAINED THIS INFORMATION THROUGH A PUBLIC RECORDS

REQUEST.

THIS INFORMATION WAS NOT AND STILL TODAY IS NOT IN THE

PUBLIC RECORD UNTIL WE SHOWED IT ON THE SCREEN TODAY.

HER E-MAIL CONTAINS FOUR LINKS.

THE FIRST CONTAINED A LINK ABOUT THIS REZONING PETITION, AND

SECOND, THE OTHER THREE LINKS WERE RELATED TO ARTICLES ABOUT

CHEMICAL FORMULATORS AND CHLORINE GAS LEAKS.

THOSE THREE LINKS COVERED THE TOPICS AND PROVIDED SPECIFIC

STATISTICS RELATED TO INCIDENCES.




THEY WERE AS FOLLOWS.

THE 1998 LEAK AT CHEMICAL FORMULATORS, THE 2005 LEAK AT

CHEMICAL FORMULATORS, AND THE GRANITEVILLE RAIL CAR CRASH.

I WILL REMIND YOU THAT DURING THE LAST HEARING THERE WERE

THREE THINGS THAT MR. DINGFELDER QUESTIONED IRA ABOUT IN

DETAIL WHICH WERE NOT IN THE RECORD.

THOSE WERE AS FOLLOWS:

NUMBER ONE, THE 1998 LEAK FOR CHEMICAL FORMULATORS.

NUMBER TWO, THE 2005 LEAK AT CHEMICAL FORMULATORS. AND

FINALLY THE GRANITEVILLE RAIL CAR CRASH.

IT IS ASSUMED THAT COUNCIL WILL NOT OPEN OR READ E-MAILS

RELATED TO QUASI-JUDICIAL MATTERS THAT ARE COMING BEFORE

COUNCIL FOR A VOTE, OR AT A MINIMUM COUNCIL WILL DISCLOSE

SUCH EX PARTE COMMUNICATION SO THAT THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE

PROPERLY ENTERED INTO THE RECORD AND THE APPLICANT HAS AN

OPPORTUNITY TO EVALUATE AND RESPOND BEFORE ANY VOTE IS

TAKEN.

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE APRIL 8 HEARING AND AGAIN TODAY AT

THIS HEARING, MR. SHELBY ASKED IF ANYONE HAD ANY EX PARTE

COMMUNICATIONS TO DISCLOSE AND NO ONE DISCLOSED THEY HAD ANY

EX PARTE COMMUNICATION.

SO WHETHER THIS INFORMATION USED TO CREATE THE LINE OF

QUESTIONING FOR MS. ILA WAS THE RESULT OF COUNCILMAN

DINGFELDER'S INDEPENDENT RESEARCH OR WHETHER IT WAS PROMPTED

THROUGH UNDISCLOSED EX PARTE COMMUNICATION, IT DOESN'T




REALLY MATTER BECAUSE THE END RESULT IS THE SAME.

THE USE OF THIS INFORMATION WAS PREJUDICIAL TO THE APPLICANT

AND CREATES SIGNIFICANT LEGAL PROBLEMS FOR THIS APPLICANT IF

THE PROJECT IS NOT APPROVED TODAY.

WE HOPE THAT THESE ADDITIONAL FACTS THAT WE PUT INTO THE

RECORD NEVER BECOME A PROBLEM FOR THE CITY AND THAT THE VOTE

GOES JUST LIKE IT DID THE LAST TIME.

AS YOU KNOW, EVERY SINGLE ISSUE THAT WE PRESENTED, THAT

COUNCIL PRESENTED, OR THAT MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY

PRESENTED, WE ADDRESSED SPECIFICALLY WITH EXPERT TESTIMONY

AND WITH COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE.

YOU DO GREAT WORK ON THIS COUNCIL, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU,

AND I KNOW THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU ARE PUBLIC

SERVANTS AND ONLY WANT WHAT IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE

COMMUNITY, AND THAT'S WHY IT'S CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO

PROTECT THE PROCESS AND THE INTEGRITY OF THE DECISIONS THAT

YOU MAKE.

THANK YOU.

02:47:11 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

MR. MANASSE?

02:47:20 >>RYAN MANASSE:
STAFF IS READY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS

SHOULD COUNCIL HAVE ANY, BUT I GUESS IT'S BACK TO YOU, SIR.

02:47:27 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
DO WE HAVE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT?

ALL RIGHT.

GENTLEMEN, WE HAVE FOUR FOR PUBLIC COMMENT.




02:47:36 >> HELLO?

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

02:47:47 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE CAN HEAR YOU.

WE CAN'T SEE YOU, THOUGH.

02:47:52 >> EARLIER MY MICROPHONE DIDN'T WORK SO I HAVE A BACKUP

COMPUTER.

02:48:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MRS. WELLS?

02:48:07 >>CATE WELLS:
I HATE TO INTERRUPT PUBLIC COMMENT, BUT FOR

THE RECORD, CATE WELLS, CHIEF ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY.

I DON'T KNOW AT THIS POINT GIVEN THE ISSUES RAISED BY MRS.

BATSEL IF MR. SHELBY WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS WHETHER OR NOT IT

WOULD BE APPROPRIATE FOR MR. DINGFELDER TO RECUSE HIMSELF.

02:48:24 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. SHELBY?

02:48:26 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF I CAN.

I WOULD LIKE BEFORE WE TAKE PUBLIC COMMENT, I AM GOING TO

INQUIRE OF THE CLERK AND THEN I WILL BE ABLE TO ADDRESS

THAT.

IS THAT OKAY WITH YOU, MS. WELLS?

IS THERE SOMETHING YOU WANT TO SAY NOW THAT WE SHOULD

DISCUSS RATHER THAN TAKE PUBLIC COMMENT?

I WAS ABOUT TO CONVERSE WITH THE CLERK.

02:48:45 >> HOWEVER YOU WANT TO HANDLE IT, MR. SHELBY.

I WAS IS JUST RAISING IT FOR THE RECORD.

02:48:52 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I APPRECIATE THAT.

WE'LL GET BACK TO THAT, MR. CHAIRMAN.




THANK YOU.

02:48:57 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
I WILL BE RIGHT BACK, MR. CHAIR.

02:49:04 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE STILL HAVE FOUR.

02:49:07 >>THE CLERK:
I HAVE THREE OUT OF THE FOUR.

STEPHANIE POYNER IS NOT LOGGED ON AT THIS TIME.

SO EVERYONE ELSE PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND.

DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THAT THE TESTIMONY THAT YOU ARE ABOUT

TO GIVE IS THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH?

02:49:38 >> YES.

02:49:43 >>THE CLERK:
THANK YOU.

02:49:45 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE WILL GO WITH JEAN STROHMEYER FIRST.

02:49:48 >> SURE.

OKAY.

MY NAME IS JEAN STROHMEYER, PRESIDENT OF INTERBAY GANDY

CIVIC ASSOCIATION HERE TO OPPOSE ITEM 57 DUE TO THE CHEMICAL

PLANT BEING 500 FEET AWAY FROM THE PROPOSED APARTMENTS.

DEVELOPMENT OF CHANNELSIDE NOT YET CONVERTED TO RESIDENTIAL

UNTIL THE NIGH RATE AND CHEMICAL COMPANY LEFT.

OTHER HAZARDOUS INDUSTRIES IN THE PORT TAMPA AREA ARE 12 TO

1400 FEET AWAY.

CHEMICAL FORMULATOR IS CLOSE TO 500 FEET FROM THE PROPOSED

SITE.

HARBOR ISLAND CITY PLANNERS TESTIFIED THAT IT DID NOT GET

DEVELOPED AS RESIDENTIAL UNTIL AFTER THEY CLEANED UP WHERE

WHAT WAS USED BY THE COUNTY AS A MOSQUITO CONTROL AREA.




DANGER OF TRAINS.

THERE'S ONLY ONE TRAIN A DAY TO CFI.

IF THAT TRAIN JUST TRAVELED 20 MILES AN HOUR THAT MEANS THAT

RESIDENCES CLOSE TO THE TRACKS OVER 880 FEET OF THAT TRAIN

FOR ONE MINUTE A DAY.

IF IT GOES 10 MILES AN HOUR IT'S TWO MINUTES A DAY.

IN 2015 THERE WAS A TERRORIST ATTACK ON A CHEMICAL PLANT IN

FRANCE.

THE TERRORISTS ROLLED A VAN INTO A CHEMICAL WAREHOUSE AND IT

EXPLODED.

SECURITY EXPERTS SAY THAT SITUATION EXPOSED THE

VULNERABILITIES OF CHEMICAL PLANTS TO TERRORIST ATTACKS.

THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY CONSIDERS

CHEMICAL FORMULATORS WITH ITS CHLORINE GAS INDUSTRY TO BE

TARGET OF TERRORIST ATTACKS.

CFI INFORMED TAMPA CITY COUNCIL IN 2018 OF THIS

VULNERABILITY.

THEY ARE REQUIRED TO FILE INFORMATION WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF

HOMELAND SECURITY AND THE COAST GUARD TO THE ONGOING CONCERN

ABOUT --

[NO ENCODER]

[NO ENCODER]

NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO INCREASE POPULATION DENSITY.

AS SUCH A RAPID RACE ESPECIALLY IN THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD.

TO DO THIS IS A BLATANT DISREGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE OVER




PROFIT.

PLEASE DENY THIS DANGEROUS REZONING REQUEST AND VOTE YOUR

CONSCIENCE AND PUT LIFE BEFORE PROFIT IN OUR GREAT CITY.

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME AND HAVE A GREAT DAY.

02:52:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

CARROLL ANN BENNETT.

02:52:25 >> CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?

02:52:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
YES, WE CAN.

02:52:38 >> MY NAME IS CARROLL ANN BENNETT.

ERICANS CHANCES OF DYING IN THE 911 TERRORIST ATTACKS WERE

.000001.

MY BROTHER-IN-LAW WENT TO WORK THAT DAY IN AN OFFICE.

HE DID NOT REPORT TO HIS FAIR HOUSE.

HE WAS A CAPTAIN IN THE FDNY BUT WAS ALSO A CHEMICAL

ENGINEER.

ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 HE WAS DEVELOPING A TRAINING CLASS FOR

HAZ-MAT SO HE WAS IN A NICE SAFE DESK IN A NICE SAFE OFFICE.

THEN THE TOWERS WERE HIT.

SIX WEEKS LATER, AFTER ALL HOPE WAS GONE, A MEMORIAL SERVICE

WAS HELD.

IT WAS A MEMORIAL INSTEAD OF A FUNERAL BECAUSE NOTHING WAS

FOUND.

A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, THE FIRST OF HIS FOUR CHILDREN GOT

MARRIED.

AT HIS WEDDING THE DAUGHTER DANCED THE TRADITIONAL FATHER




DAUGHTER DANCE WITH HER UNCLE.

IN 2009, THE CHANCES OF A TEENAGER DYING IN A HOUSE FIRE

WERE ABOUT .00002.

MY NEPHEW WAS SAFE ON THE SIDEWALK.

MY NEPHEW WAS SAFE ON THE SQUAWK BUT HIS BEST FRIEND WAS

STILL IN THE HOUSE.

EVERY DAY, BETWEEN DREAMS AND REALITY, EVERY DAY THE FIRST

SECOND OF AWARENESS, EVERY DAY HIS PARENTS FIRST THOUGHT IS,

MY SON IS DEAD.

AND I WILL BE THAT WILL BE THEIR FIRST WAKING THOUGHT EVERY

DAY FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES.

DO I THINK THERE WILL BE A LEAK OF CHEMICAL -- CHEMICAL

FORMULATORS?

NO, I DO NOT.

I DO THINK THERE WILL BE A TERRORIST ATTACK OWN CHEMICAL

FORMULATORS?

NO, I DO NOT.

I DO THINK IT'S WORTH THE RISK?

NO, I DO NOT.

THERE IS A REASON PEOPLE BUY LOTTERY TICKETS AND THAT ARE

LONG SHOTS AT THE TRACK, BECAUSE NO MATTER IF IT'S 100 TO

ONE OR A MILLION TO ONE, THE ONE ALWAYS COMES IN.

SOONER OR LATER, THE ONE ALWAYS COMES IN.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN .00001 AND ZERO CANNOT BE CALCULATED

WITH MATH, BECAUSE THE DIFFERENCE IS NOT A NUMBER.




THE DIFFERENCE IS A FAR LESS QUOTIENT OF GRIEF AND PAIN.

WHEN THE ONE COMES, AND IT WILL, WHEN THAT ONE COMES IN,

FLORIDA, TAMPA, DON'T TELL THE PUBLIC HOW SHOCKED YOU ARE

AND DON'T KNOW THE RISK.

TELL THE PUBLIC YOU DECIDED IT WAS WORTH THE RISK.

02:55:37 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

SHAWN BROWN.

02:55:51 >> GOOD AFTERNOON, COUNCIL.

IT'S BEEN A LONG DAY, AND I WAS SPEAKING ON THIS ISSUE, IT'S

SOMETHING WHERE WE LOOK AT COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE

TO SUPPORT SOMETHING OF THIS NATURE, UNFORTUNATELY THAT

EVIDENCE WOULD BE LIVES LOST.

INCIDENTS THAT OCCUR IN THE PAST AND PEOPLE WOULD HAVE DIED

AND WHO WOULD HAVE SUFFERED AND WHO HAVE PERMANENT DAMAGE.

THAT'S THE KIND OF EVIDENCE THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PRESENT IN

ORDER TO I GUESS PROBABLY CONVINCE ALL OF YOU NOT TO APPROVE

THIS.

I DON'T THINK ANY OF YOU WANT TO EVER BE A PART OF HISTORY

WHERE THAT KIND OF EVIDENCE IS PART OF YOUR RECORD, AND AS

TRUTHFULLY WHERE IT'S AT.

ON RATTLESNAKE POINT THERE IS CHEMICAL FORMULATORS.

THERE'S OTHER INDUSTRIALS.

THERE IS AN ISSUE.

AS THEY SAID IT'S ONLY 500, 600 FEET AWAY FROM THE PLANT.

WHETHER YOU WANT TO TAKE THE RISK OR NOT IN ALLOWING THIS




TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT TO OCCUR, WITH THAT BEING ON THAT

PENINSULA, RATTLESNAKE POINT IS A PENINSULA AND JUTS OUT IN

SOUTH TAMPA, AS BEING SOUTH TAMPA.

IT'S UP TO YOU WHETHER YOU WANT TO TAKE THAT RISK AND MAYBE

BE A PART OF I WOULD SAY A NEGATIVE PART OF HISTORY IF

SOMETHING WERE TO OCCUR.

GRANTED IT'S A BIG IF.

AND AS CARROLL ANN SAID, DO WE THINK IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN?

NO.

BUT THERE ARE THE RISKS.

WE NEVER THOUGHT 9/11 WAS GOING TO HAPPEN.

WE NEVER THOUGHT THINGS WERE GOING TO OCCUR.

A FEW YEARS AGO, WATCHING IT THE OR WHATEVER HIS TITLE IS

VLADIMIR PUT INPUTS OUT HIS VIDEO SHOWING AREAS HE WOULD

ATTACK IN THE COUNTRY, SOUTH TAMPA IS ONE OF THEM BECAUSE OF

THE BASE.

BUT NEVERTHELESS, COUNTRIES LIKE THAT ARE LOOKING AT AREAS

TO ATTACK.

AND HE PUTS OUT THAT VIDEO, YOU GUYS CAN FIND THAT ONLINE.

IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS.

THIS IS A TOUGH DECISION, AT LEAST PRESENTED A LOT OF

EVIDENCE FOR THE PROPOSAL AND QUITE FRANKLY IF THAT PROJECT

WAS SOMEWHERE ELSE, IT WOULD BE A MUCH DIFFERENT DISCUSSION,

BECAUSE THEY PUT IN MIXED USE, THEY HAVE DONE EVERYTHING

COUNCIL I GUESS IN A WAY ASKED FOR EARLY ON, AND CAME BACK




WITH A MORE MIXED USE PROJECT, BUT THE FACT IT'S A LOCATION

HAS A LOT OF RISKS TO IT.

AND AGAIN TO PRESENT COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE WOULD

BE TO BASICALLY SAY SOMETHING IS ALREADY HAPPENED BEFORE

LOST LIVES, BEFORE INJURED, AND THAT'S THAT.

THAT'S THE KIND OF EVIDENCE THAT REALLY YOU ALL ARE LOOKING

FOR, AND THAT'S THE PROBLEM.

SO AT ANY RATE, HOPEFULLY YOU WILL TAKE THIS TO HEART, VOTE

YOUR CONSCIENCE AND DECIDE FOR THE BEST OF THE PEOPLE.

THANK YOU.

02:58:42 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

I SEE WE HAVE POYNOR?

02:58:51 >>THE CLERK:
YES.

STEPHANIE, PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND.

[OATH ADMINISTERED]

THANK YOU.

PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.

WE CAN'T HEAR YOU.

02:59:05 >> CAN YOU HEAR ME?

02:59:10 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE HEAR YOU.

02:59:12 >> SORRY.

I JUST NEED TO SAY THAT BOTTOM LINE IS I HAD A LONG

CONVERSATION WITH THE LEADERSHIP AT THE RESERVE UNIT NEXT

DOOR TO THE CHEMICAL FORMULATORS.

YES, I SENT THE E-MAIL.




GUESS WHAT, I HAD SURGERY THAT DAY.

SO IT MAY HAVE CAME AFTER THE HEARING STARTED, BUT I DIDN'T

TIME ANYBODY'S, AND THOSE ARTICLES ARE WELL OPEN TO THE

PUBLIC.

IT TOOK ME ABOUT THREE SECONDS OF GOOGLING THEM.

I DID CALL THE CHIEF OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

HE CONFIRMED THAT WAS APPROXIMATELY 300 YARDS FROM WHERE THE

SPILL TOOK PLACE, SO THESE APARTMENTS ARE GOING TO BE WELL

WITHIN THE DANGER RANGE.

AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THE FOLKS AT THE RESERVE CENTER SAID

THAT THERE'S A SOCK OUTSIDE IN ORDER TO DESIGNATED WHICH WAY

THE WIND IS BLOWING SO THEY KNOW WHETHER IT'S SAFE TO PUT

THEIR RECRUITING CENTER -- THEIR RESERVE CENTER OR NOT, IF

NOT THEY HAVE AN ALTERNATIVE PLAN TO ACTUALLY VACATE THE LOT

NEXT DOOR TO CF, VIA WATER VEHICLES, FROM THE AMMONIA BASE

JUST DOWN THE ROAD.

SO THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS HAS A DETECTION SYSTEM THAT IS

SITTING ON THE BOUNDARIES.

I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYBODY FROM THE DEVELOPER TALK ABOUT WHAT

KIND OF SAFETY AND SECURITY ISSUES THAT THEY ARE GOING TO

HAVE FOR THIS.

I SENT AN E-MAIL DURING A MEETING, AND I DON'T KNOW WHEN

THAT BECAME ILLEGAL BECAUSE I THOUGHT WE COULD SEND E-MAILS

WHENEVER WE WANTED.

BUT ANYWAY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.




YOU ALL HAVE A GOOD EVENING.

03:01:19 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU.

WE GO BACK TO THE APPLICANT FOR REBUTTAL.

03:01:25 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF I CAN, MR. CHAIRMAN, I AM GOING TO HAVE

TO ADDRESS SOME ISSUES THAT WERE RAISED BY MS. BATSEL AND I

WOULD LIKE TO DO THAT BEFORE HER REBUTTAL.

MS. BATSEL, HI, MARTIN SHELBY.

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

03:01:38 >>ELISE BATSEL:
YES, SIR.

03:01:39 >> MARTIN SHELBY:
LET ME, AS A MATTER OF FACT, AS A WAY TO

DO THIS, OKAY, YOU CAN SEE ME THERE, TOO, AND YOU CAN SEE ME

HERE.

03:01:51 >>ELISE BATSEL:
YES, SIR.

03:01:53 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.

MAY I MAKE A COUPLE OF INQUIRIES RELATIVE TO YOUR

PRESENTATION FOR THE RECORD?

03:01:58 >>ELISE BATSEL:
OF COURSE.

03:01:59 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.

THE FIRST ONE BEING WITH REGARD TO THE LETTER THAT YOU

DISPLAYED TO COUNCIL.

HAS THAT BEEN, OTHER THAN THE SCREEN SHOT OF IT, HAS THAT

BEEN PROVIDED TO THE CITY AS OF YET?

03:02:19 >>ELISE BATSEL:
NO, IT HAS NOT.

03:02:22 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
AND WAS IT YOUR REPRESENTATION JUST SO I

CLEAR, WAS IT YOUR REPRESENTATION THAT THAT EX PARTE




COMMUNICATION, THAT WRITTEN EX PARTE COMMUNICATION --

03:02:33 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. SHELBY, LET ME INTERRUPT YOU FOR A

SECOND AS A POINT OF ORDER.

I WILL TAKE EVERYBODY OUT OF THIS AGONY.

THIS THING PASSED BEFORE AND OBVIOUSLY COUNCIL IS GOING TO

IGNORE THIS DANGEROUS CONDITION, THE PUBLIC HEALTH SAFETY

AND WELFARE, IT'S GOING TO PASS AGAIN.

SO REGARDLESS, I AM GOING TO GO AHEAD AND RECUSE MYSELF,

BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THAT'S WHAT THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY AND

THE CITY ATTORNEY WOULD LIKE ME TO DO.

SO I WILL DO THAT.

I WILL RECUSE MYSELF, AND I WILL WALK OUT OF THE ROOM AT

THIS POINT.

THANK YOU.

03:03:06 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MR. DINGFELDER, YOU WOULD THEN FILE WITHIN

15 DAYS AND I WILL HAVE THAT FOR YOU FOR THE RECORD DOWN THE

ROAD.

THANK YOU, SIR.

03:03:14 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
MR. CHAIR, I TAKE OFFENSE THAT COUNCILMAN

DINGFELDER SAYING THAT WE ARE IGNORING ANY DANGERS THAT

MIGHT COME FROM THE BUILDING OF THIS.

I THINK NOT ONLY MYSELF, BUT I WILL NOT SPEAK FOR OTHER

COUNCIL MEMBERS, ALWAYS TAKE IN ALL CONSIDERATIONS OF

ANYTHING THAT COMES BEFORE US.

I TAKE OFFENSE THAT IT WAS SAID THAT I IGNORED EVERYTHING.




THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

03:03:36 >>LUIS VIERA:
I AGREE, I DISAGREE WITH THE COUNCILMAN'S

COMMENTS, BUT I WILL SAY THIS, HE'S PROBABLY VERY EMOTIONAL,

AND REGARDLESS OF WHAT ONE THINKS ABOUT IT, HE'S UNDER A

LEVEL OF EMOTION NOW, SO I MAY DISAGREE WITH THAT STATEMENT

BUT I DON'T TAKE OFFENSE, WE ALWAYS GET EMOTIONAL WHEN WE

SAY THINGS.

I AM NOT FINE WITH IT BUT I UNDERSTAND IT.

JUST MY OPINION.

03:04:01 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, MR. VIERA, FOR THAT.

03:04:03 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YES, MR. CHAIRMAN, IF I CAN CONTINUE JUST

VERY BRIEFLY.

WITH REGARD TO THAT E-MAIL, TO YOUR KNOWLEDGE, HAS THAT BEEN

SINCE UPLOADED AND MADE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC THROUGH SIRE

AND THROUGH THE TAMPA.GOV/AGENDA WEBSITE, MRS. BATSEL, ARE

YOU AWARE?

03:04:25 >>ELISE BATSEL:
IT HAS NOT BEEN UPLOADED AND NONE OF THAT

INFORMATION HAS BEEN PUT INTO PUBLIC RECORD.

03:04:31 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THE DEADLINE BEING THE PAST 24, 48 HOURS?

03:04:34 >>ELISE BATSEL:
YES.

03:04:36 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.

PARDON?

03:04:38 >>ELISE BATSEL:
I BELIEVE WE CHECKED THIS MORNING AT 9:00.

03:04:40 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.

AGAIN JUST A REMINDER FOR YOU AND THE OTHER PARTICIPANTS IF




THERE'S ANY SCREEN SHARING, PLEASE PURSUANT TO THE RULES,

ENTER THAT INTO THE RECORD PHYSICALLY ELECTRONICALLY THROUGH

THE PROCESS THAT'S BEEN SET FORTH IN THE INSTRUCTIONS.

OKAY.

THAT BEING THE CASE, IF I CAN, THEN JUST INQUIRE OF THE

BOARD.

JUST SO THAT THE RECORD IS CLEAR.

COUNCILMEMBER DINGFELDER HAS RECUSED HIMSELF.

AND NOW THAT BEING THE CASE, AND NOW YOU BEING AWARE OF THIS

PRESENTATION, AND THE ISSUES BEFORE YOU, ARE THERE ANY

MEMBERS OF THIS BOARD WHO CANNOT BE FAIR AND IMPARTIAL AND

BASE YOUR EVIDENCE UPON THE COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE

THAT HAS BEEN ENTERED INTO THIS RECORD?

IF YOU HAVE, PLEASE INDICATE THAT YOU CANNOT BE FAIR AND

IMPARTIAL.

I SEE NO ONE.

MS. BATSEL, ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONAL THINGS YOU WISH TO HAVE

FOR THE RECORD?

03:05:40 >>ELISE BATSEL:
WE DO HAVE -- I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE ONE

COMMENT FOR REBUTTAL BASED ON THE CITIZEN TESTIMONY.

03:05:48 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
BUT OUTSIDE OF THE RECORD WITH REGARD TO

YOUR PROCEDURAL ISSUES.

03:05:52 >>ELISE BATSEL:
YOU KNOW, MY DUTY WAS TO PROTECT THE RECORD

FOR MY CLIENT, AND MY DUTY WAS TO PRESENT FACTUAL

INFORMATION ON THE RECORD AND THAT'S WHAT WE TRIED TO DO AS




CAREFULLY AND DIPLOMATICALLY AS WE COULD.

03:06:07 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
UNDERSTOOD, AND THANK YOU.

I TURN THE MEETING BACK TO YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

03:06:12 >>ELISE BATSEL:
I HAVE ONE QUESTION OF OUR EXPERT, MARTHA

ILA.

I DON'T BELIEVE SHE'S BEEN SWORN.

(OATH ADMINISTERED BY CLERK).

03:06:34 >>ELISE BATSEL:

03:06:37 >>THE CLERK:
THANK YOU.

03:06:41 >>ELISE BATSEL:
MS. ILA, DID YOU HEAR ALL OF THE PRIOR

TESTIMONY BY CITIZENS AT THIS PARTICULAR HEARING?

03:06:45 >> YES, I DID.

I HEARD THE FOUR CITIZENS' TESTIMONY.

03:06:48 >>ELISE BATSEL:
WAS THERE ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU HEARD

THAT WE HAVE NOT ALREADY ADDRESSED AT THE PRIOR HEARING WITH

EXPERT TESTIMONY AND COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE?

03:06:57 >> MOST OF WHAT THEY DISCUSSED SUCH AS WEIGHING THE RISKS

AND WEIGHING THE RISKS AGAINST THE BENEFITS AND THE OTHER

INFORMATION WE HAD ALREADY ADDRESSED.

I ONLY HEARD ONE NEW THING.

SOMEONE MENTIONED A WINDSOCK.

THAT'S TYPICAL.

ANY FACILITY THAT HAS AIRBORNE CHEMICALS TYPICALLY HAVE THE

WINDSOCK AS PART OF THE EMERGENCY RESPONSE, AND PART OF THE




SAFETY SYSTEMS.

OTHER THAN THAT WE TALKED ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE AT THE

PREVIOUS MEETINGS.

03:07:35 >>ELISE BATSEL:

LAST NIGHT I WAS OUT AT K-BAR RANCH OVER IN NEW TAMPA, AND

THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT ISSUES OUT THERE AT K-BAR RANCH

INVOLVING THE PUBLIC SAFETY.

FOUR OUT OF THE SIX FIRE STATIONS IN THE CITY OF TAMPA WITH

THE LONGEST RESPONSE TIMES ARE IN NEW TAMPA AND IT SEEMS

THAT K-BAR RANCH BEARS THE BRUNT OF THAT.

SO MANY DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES, CITY COUNCIL APPROVED OF 700,

I THINK IT WAS, NEW HOMES OUT THERE, MAYBE TWO AND A HALF OR

SO YEARS AGO, AND A LOT OF DIFFERENT ISSUES WITH MANSFIELD,

FIRE SAFETY ISSUES, I GUESS IT WAS TWO WEEKS AGO THE MAYOR

AND I WERE DOING A TOWN HALL OUT THERE AND THAT NIGHT IN

K-BAR RANCH THERE WAS A TRAGIC ACCIDENT WHERE A MOTHER WITH

A 12-YEAR-OLD SON, THERE WAS A CRASH, AND SHE DROWNED AND

DIED OUT THERE.

AND JUST A LOT OF DIFFERENT ISSUES.

I WOULD LIKE TO DO A WORKSHOP IF I MAY ON K-BAR RANCH PUBLIC

SAFETY AND MOBILITY ISSUES.

JUST TO BRING THAT TO THE FOREFRONT.

I KNOW THAT WE ARE ALL BOOKED IN JUNE.

WHAT WOULD BE THE NEXT WORKSHOP THAT'S AVAILABLE?

I WAS LOOKING AT THE CALENDAR HERE.

WHAT'S THE NEXT ONE THAT'S AVAILABLE?

03:32:05 >>THE CLERK:
THE NEXT AVAILABLE WILL BE SEPTEMBER 23rd.

03:32:11 >>LUIS VIERA:

WE HAVE A SECOND BY MR. CITRO.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIED.

ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?

03:32:26 >>LUIS VIERA:
NO.

I WANTED TO POINT OUT AS WELL IF I MAY, WASN'T IT YESTERDAY,

THE DID IT COMMISSION PASSED $7.5 MILLION, THE NEW TAMPA

ARTS CENTER, AND I ALWAYS LIKE TO JUST GIVE CREDIT WHERE

CREDIT IS DUE, BUT FORMER COUNTY COMMISSIONER VICTOR CRIST,

AND REALLY WORKED ON THAT FOR MANY, MANY YEARS AND HE'S NO

LONGER IN OFFICE, AND JUST WANTED TO GIVE A SHOUTOUT TO HIM

FOR HIS LONG WORK.

THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF WORK THAT WORKED ON THAT, CITY

STAFF, OTHER COMMISSIONERS, ET CETERA.

BUT THAT WAS SOMETHING, I THINK HE WAS PROBABLY A STATE

SENATOR, I'M THINKING BACK THEN, HE STARTED WORKING ON ARTS,

AND COMMUNITY VENUES FOR NEW AND NORTH TAMPA WITH THE IDEA

BEING THE FIRST OF WHAT WOULD BECOME THE UACDC WHICH IS HIS

BABY.

MAYBE HE'S ONE OF NUMEROUS FATHERS AND MOTHERS, BUT

CERTAINLY HIS BABY, THE UACDC, AND PART OF THAT VISION WAS

FOR NEW TAMPA TO HAVE AN ARTS CENTER, AND THAT PASSED

YESTERDAY.

SO AGAIN KUDOS TO THE COUNTY COMMISSION, BUT ESPECIALLY FOR




FORMER COMMISSIONER AND STATED SENATOR VICTOR CRIST.

I WANTED TO ABSOLUTE HIM.

SO THANK YOU.

03:33:43 >>THE CLERK:
CHAIR, MR. VIERA COULD, WE SCHEDULE THAT WORK

FOR 10:00 A.M. TIME CERTAIN SINCE WE HAVE AT 9:30 A.M.?

03:33:53 >>LUIS VIERA:

03:33:54 >>ORLANDO GUDES:

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIED.

03:34:48 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THE LAST ONE, WHEN WE WERE DISCUSSING

ITEM NUMBER 8, I KEPT TALKING ABOUT A WORKSHOP, BUT I COP

SEE THAT I ERRED IN MY OWN JUDGMENT WHEN I VOTED FOR THE

CONTINUATION OF NUMBER 8.

AND I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT REVIEWED AGAIN, TAKE ANOTHER

VOTE.

03:35:10 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
A MOTION TO RECONSIDER, MR. MIRANDA?

03:35:13 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
YES, SIR.

WHEN WE WERE DISCUSSING ITEM NUMBER 8, I MENTIONED TWO OR

THREE TIMES ABOUT A WORKSHOP, AND I ERRED AND I VOTED FOR

CONTINUATION OF ITEM NUMBER 8 INSTEAD OF WORK SHOPPING ITEM

NUMBER 8.

THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO DO.

03:35:28 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AND THAT'S WHAT MY MOTION WAS.

03:35:32 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THAT'S FINE.

03:35:34 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WHERE ARE WE AT NOW?

03:35:36 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I THOUGHT IT WAS TO CONTINUE ITEM NUMBER

8.

I WANTED A WORKSHOP.

03:35:39 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IT'S A WORK SHOWN.

03:35:41 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AND TO INCLUDE THE LANGUAGE THAT I




OFFERED.

03:35:45 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IT WAS TO PUT IT TO A WORKSHOP, CORRECT?

03:35:52 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THAT'S FINE.

I THOUGHT I MADE A MISTAKE AND I MADE A MISTAKE BY THINKING

I MADE A MISTAKE.

03:35:58 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?

03:36:01 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THAT'S IT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

03:36:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I GOT A MEMO IN REFERENCE TO THE BUDGET

AND FINANCE COMMITTEE.

AS NOW, WE TALKED LAST YEAR REFERENCE TO MAKING SURE THAT

YOU HAVE PEOPLE ON THAT BOARD IN FINANCE AND BUNDLING SO

WHEN YOU MAKE THE REAPPOINTMENTS, AGAIN, GOT A GOOD PERSON

ON THERE, AND IT'S GOING TO BE KEY.

BUT I GET CALLS FROM THE PAST CHAIR AND APPARENTLY THE PHONE

CALLS HAVEN'T BEEN RECEIVED AND RETURNED SO I AM GLAD THAT

MR. MIRANDA AND MARY ARE ON THAT NOW.

03:36:46 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT DETAIL,

FOCUS, THERE YOU GO.

03:36:51 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
OH, YES.

I KNOW.

MR. DINGFELDER, HOW ABOUT YOU, SIR?

03:36:54 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN.

TWO ITEMS.

ONE, I WOULD LIKE FOR COUNCIL TO HAVE BEEN -- INTERESTING




LEGAL QUESTION CAME UP TODAY, AND I WOULD LIKE COUNCIL TO

DIRECT MR. SHELBY TO DO SOME RESEARCH AND COME BACK TO US

WITH NOT NECESSARILY A LEGAL MEMORANDUM OR ANYTHING THAT

FORMAL, BUT JUST SOME INFORMATION TO GIVE US FUTURE

GUIDANCE, AND THAT'S SPECIFICALLY AS RELATED TO THIS

QUESTION OF EX PARTE INFORMATION.

SO THE INSINUATION IS WE HAVE TO VIEW THESE REZONINGS WITH A

TOTALLY BLANK SLATE WITH NOTHING IN OUR MIND.

AND MY CONCERN IS, WE ALL BRING TO THE TABLE GENERAL

KNOWLEDGE, HISTORIC KNOWLEDGE, MR. MIRANDA HAS AN AMAZING

HISTORIC KNOWLEDGE AND HE REMINDS US ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WITH

NEWSPAPER ARTICLES, SOMETIMES EVEN IN THE MIDDLE OF A

REZONING, A NEWSPAPER ARTICLE MIGHT COME OUT EITHER IN THE

BUSINESS JOURNAL OR THE TIMES OR WHAT HAVE YOU ABOUT THAT

REZONING.

SO IT'S LIKE, WELL, DO WE ALL DISCLOSE THAT WE READ THAT

NEWSPAPER ARTICLE?

I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT.

BUT THAT ISSUE CAME UP TODAY, AND IT KIND OF TOOK ME BY

SURPRISE A LITTLE BIT.

AND THEN I THINK WE ARE ALL CREATURES OF GOOGLE NOW.

I MEAN, HOW MANY OF US AT ONE POINT IN EVERY SINGLE DAY OF

OUR LIVES MIGHT SAY, OH, THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION, LET ME

GOOGLE THAT, AND THEREFORE WE DID.

AND I AM NOT TRYING TO DIRECT THAT RESEARCH IN ANY WAY AT




ALL.

BUT I THINK FOR FUTURE REFERENCE, FOR PURPOSES OF

QUASI-JUDICIAL, WE NEED TO HAVE SOME GUIDANCE FROM MR.

SHELBY ON THAT ISSUE.

AND SO I THINK IT'S A VERY HARMLESS MOTION, AND I WOULD ASK

FOR A SECOND.

03:38:44 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
SECOND.

03:38:46 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION BY MR. DINGFELDER.

SECOND BY MR. VIERA. DID YOU 2021 SAY SOMETHING, MR.

SHELBY?

03:38:51 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I AM HAPPY TO DO THAT FOR CITY COUNCIL.

THANK YOU.

03:38:53 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIED.

ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?

03:38:58 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU.

AND MR. CHAIRMAN, GOING BACK TO 2016, AND I WAITED UNTIL WE

DON'T HAVE ANY RATTLESNAKE POINT ISSUES ON OUR PLATE, BUT

GOING BACK TO 2016, THE COUNCIL IN 2016 WAS FACED WITH THE

ISSUE OF ABOUT A TEXT AMENDMENT THAT WAS A PRIVATELY

INITIATED TEXT AMENDMENT THAT CHANGED THE LANGUAGE OF THAT

CHEMICAL PLANT ISSUE AND SIGNIFICANTLY, OKAY?

THAT CHANGE WAS OPPOSED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION --

03:39:36 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
WAIT.




03:39:39 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. SHELBY.

03:39:42 >>THE CLERK:
WITH ALL DUE RESPECT AND PERHAPS IT'S NOT

INAPPROPRIATE.

03:39:45 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WORKSHOP IT.

03:39:47 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
WHAT I AM CONCERNED ABOUT IS WE ARE IN THE

30-DAY APPEAL PERIOD.

03:39:53 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WE WORKSHOP IT IN AUGUST.

OR SEPTEMBER.

03:39:55 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I WOULD JUST BE CONCERNED ABOUT TALKING

ABOUT SPECIFIC --

03:40:04 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I WON'T GET INTO SPECIFICS.

ALL I WILL SAY IS, AS A MATTER OF RECORD, I WAS READING

TODAY'S RECORD, AS A MATTER OF RECORD, THE PLANNING

COMMISSION VOTED AGAINST THAT PLAN AMENDMENT, AND OUR CITY

STAFF, OUR VERY OWN LACHONE DOCK, WROTE TO DAVID HEY AND

RECOMMENDED THE CITY'S POSITION WAS AGAINST THAT AMENDMENT.

SO I WOULD LIKE TO WORKSHOP THAT AMENDMENT IN LET'S SAY

SEPTEMBER, AND SEE IF WE STILL FEEL THAT THAT AMENDMENT WAS

APPROPRIATE OR MAYBE WE NEED TO REVISIT THAT AMENDMENT.

03:40:39 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
SECOND.

03:40:40 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MR. DINGFELDER,

SECOND BY MR. MANISCALCO.

ALL IN FAVOR?

03:40:45 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
FOR SPECIFICITY THAT WAS COMP PLAN

ENDMENT 16-02.




03:40:50 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIED.

03:40:51 >>THE CLERK:
WOULD THAT BE A TIME SPECIFIC FOR 10:30?

03:40:57 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
YES, MA'AM.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

THAT'S ALL I HAVE GOT.

03:41:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I PASS THE GAVEL TO YOU, SIR.

03:41:04 >>LUIS VIERA:
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE GOING, MS. WELLS WAS

GOING TO SAY SOMETHING.

03:41:11 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MRS. WELLS, I'M SORRY.

03:41:12 >>CATE WELLS:
I KNOW IT'S BEEN A LONG DAY, BUT I THOUGHT I

UNDERSTOOD COUNCIL'S MOTION FOR ITEM NUMBER 8, BUT WITH THE

DISCUSSION, COUNCIL JUST HAD, SPECIFICALLY COUNCILMAN

MIRANDA, I'M CONFUSED AS TO WHAT THE ACTION IS, BECAUSE I

UNDERSTOOD THAT IT'S A CONTINUANCE OF THE ITEM IN ORDER TO

WORKSHOP IT IN JUNE.

03:41:39 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
CONTINUANCE OF THE ITEM TO WORKSHOP IT

IN JUNE BUT TO NOT ONLY WORKSHOP IT BUT TO FLUSH OUT THE

CHANGES THAT I PROPOSED TODAY, AND TO INCLUDE THAT IN THE

WORKSHOP.

03:41:49 >>CATE WELLS:
OKAY, AS I UNDERSTOOD COUNCILMAN MIRANDA

SAYING NOT CONTINUE THAT ITEM.

03:42:05 >>...WHETHER DINGFELDER WOULD SHUT UP, AND SURE ENOUGH.

03:42:06 >> WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.




03:42:07 >>LUIS VIERA:
WE CAN HEAR WHOEVER IS SAYING -- WE CAN

HEAR -- I'M SORRY, MR. CHAIR.

03:42:11 >> UNFORTUNATELY, I DIDN'T HEAR IT.

03:42:16 >>LUIS VIERA:
I HEARD ENOUGH. I HEARD SOMETHING.

03:42:17 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
WHOA, WHOA.

MR. MIRANDA, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.

03:42:25 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
AS IT COMES DOWN, I WAS ASKING MR.

DINGFELDER EARLIER, WE GET FROM VERBIAGE FROM YOU GUYS UP

THERE SITTING, BUT ALL THIS PLASTIC, BY THE TIME IT GETS TO

US, IT'S HALF MUMBLED.

WE DON'T HEAR IT AS WELL.

03:42:38 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE HEARD YOU.

03:42:39 >>BILL CARLSON:
I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF THAT WAS A

STAFF MEMBER OR SOMEONE ELSE OR BECAUSE THAT WAS COMPLETELY

INAPPROPRIATE.

03:42:48 >> I DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING.

03:42:48 >>BILL CARLSON:
WHAT THEY SAID WAS, IF MR. DINGFELDER WOULD

JUST SHUT UP.

IF IT WAS A STAFF MEMBER -- IF IT WAS A STAFF MEMBER --

03:43:01 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. CARLSON HAS THE FLOOR.

03:43:03 >>BILL CARLSON:
IT'S UNACCEPTABLE.

SURE, THE STAFF REPORTS TO THE MAYOR, BUT CITY COUNCIL HAS

TO WORK WITH STAFF, AND THAT WAS AN INAPPROPRIATE COMMENT IF

A STAFF MEMBER MADE THAT, AND CHIEF BENNETT IS ON THERE AND

I KNOW THAT'S NOT REFLECTIVE OF HOW HE OR THE MAYOR FEELS.




THANK YOU.

03:43:19 >>JOHN BENNETT:
GOOD AFTERNOON, COUNCIL.

JOHN BENNETT, CHIEF OF STAFF.

FIRST, UNRELATED TO WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT,

CONGRATULATIONS ON EVERYBODY WHO RECEIVED A CHAIR, PRO TEM

OR VICE CHAIR ROLL TODAY.

FIRST TIME I HAVE BEEN ON THIS AFTERNOON SO I WANT TO TAKE

THAT MOMENT.

AND THANKS TO PREVIOUS CHAIRMAN MANISCALCO FOR HIS SERVICE

THROUGH THE LAST YEAR.

I ALSO PICKED UP ON THE COMMENT, AND I WILL WORK WITH TNI TO

FIGURE OUT WHO IS ONLINE, WHETHER IT WAS THE PRIVATE SECTOR

OR THE PUBLIC SIDE, AND SEE WHAT I CAN BRING BACK.

BUT, YEAH, WE DON'T TOLERATE ANY KIND OF BEHAVIOR THAT'S NOT

CONDUCIVE TO SERVING THE COMMUNITY THROUGH OUR CONTINUED

PARTNERSHIP.

03:44:07 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
JUST AS LONG AS I CAN BE ASSURED IT

WASN'T YOU.

[ LAUGHTER ]

I'M JUST KIDDING.

ALL RIGHT.

03:44:19 >>JOHN BENNETT:
ANYWAY, THANK YOU.

03:44:23 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU.

03:44:24 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MRS. WELLS, YOU CAN CONTINUE.

03:44:27 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I THINK THE QUESTION REALLY GOES TO




CHARLIE.

IS THERE ANY CONFUSION AS TO MY MOTION?

03:44:34 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I DON'T KNOW WHAT -- ALL I KNOW IS WE

TALKED ABOUT NUMBER 8.

WE TALKED ABOUT HOW WE ARE TALKING ABOUT WORK SHOPPING THE

WHOLE THING FROM THE BEGINNING.

BECAUSE TO GO THROUGH THE LEGAL PROCESS, I DON'T THINK WE

DID ENOUGH WORK TO MAKE THE REPRESENTATION LEGALLY ONE WAY

OR THE OTHER.

AND I JUST WANTED TO CLEAR IT UP, HAVE A WORKSHOP, HAVE THE

PEOPLE COME IN, BECAUSE THE WAY I WAS READING IT, IT COMES

IN FOR FIRST READING AND TWO WEEKS LATER FOR SECOND READING,

AND CERTAINLY DIDN'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN WITHOUT ANY INPUT

FROM BOTH SIDES, FROM LEFT OR RIGHT OR RIGHT TO LEFT, AND I

THOUGHT I WAS WORK SHOPPING THE WHOLE IDEA SO LATER ON YOU

CAN BRING IT BACK TO FIRST READING.

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

AND I VOTED THE WRONG WAY IF THERE WAS ANY OTHER WAY.

I DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT IN A WORKSHOP AND THEN THAT SAME

DAY AT FIRST READING, I DON'T THINK THAT'S APPROPRIATE.

03:45:29 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THE INTENT IS JUST DO WORKSHOP.

SO --

03:45:35 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THAT'S THE WAY I INTERPRET IT.

MR. MIRANDA, WAS JUST A WORKSHOP AND WE WOULD GO FROM THERE.

I DON'T THINK ANYTHING WAS A FIRST READING AT THAT WORKSHOP,




OR ANY TYPE OF INTENT THAT WAY.

BUT MY ANTENNAS WERE UP BECAUSE I CAN TELL THAT THE SMOKE

DIDN'T REALLY CLEAR RIGHT NOW BUT AGAIN YOU HAVE THE RIGHT

TO RAISE THAT, AND AGAIN, THE WAY I INTERPRET IT, IT WAS A

WORKSHOP OF ALL THE RESPECTERS OF THE SITUATION AND WE WOULD

MOVE FROM THERE BUT THERE WAS NOTHING OF AN ORDINANCE COMING

BACK TO MY UNDERSTANDING.

IS THAT CORRECT, MR. DINGFELDER?

03:46:16 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
YES, SIR.

03:46:17 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THE QUESTION THEN, MR. MIRANDA, ARE YOU

WITHDRAWING YOUR MOTION?

ARE YOU SATISFIED, SIR?

03:46:22 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
SATISFIED JUST FOR A WORKSHOP.

THAT'S WHAT I SAID IN THE BEGINNING.

03:46:28 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALL SATISFIED?

MS. WELLS, IN ADDITION ELSE, MA'AM?

03:46:33 >>CATE WELLS:
THANK YOU.

THAT'S IT.

03:46:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. DINGFELDER, CAN I PASS THE GAVEL TO

YOU, SIR?

03:46:39 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
GOT IT.

03:46:40 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION FOR THE

TAMPA JUNIOR COALITION TO RECEIVE A COMMENDATION HONORING

OUR EFFORTS IN BRINGING CULTURAL AWARENESS TO THE COMMUNITY

ABOUT BLACK HISTORY PRESENTED AT THE JUNE 3rd,




JUNETEENTH CELEBRATION IN TAMPA.

03:46:56 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WE HAVE A MOTION.

DID WE HAVE A SECOND?

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

CARRY ON.

03:47:05 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MY SECOND ONE, I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A

MOTION FOR STAFF TO GIVE DETAILS FOR THE PROGRESS OR

DIRECTION FOR THE REPAIR OF A SEAWALL IN THE PALMETTO BEACH

BERMUDA ISLAND.

I WOULD LIKE THIS TO TAKE PLACE AT A JUNE 3rd REGULAR

SESSION OF COUNCIL.

03:47:23 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WE HAVE A MOTION BY THE CHAIRMAN.

SECOND BY MR. MIRANDA.

ANY CONVERSATION?

I BELIEVE MR --

03:47:32 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I BELIEVE MR. MANISCALCO HAD HIS HAND

BEFORE I SAID AYE.

03:47:35 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CITRO, DO YOU HAVE A COMMENT?

03:47:39 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
YES, PLEASE.

AND IF I MAY, I WANT TO REALLY HEAR THIS WORKSHOP AND THIS

REPORT BUT WE ARE ALSO LOOKING AT DIFFERENCES DURING SEA

LEVEL RISE INSTEAD OF REPAIRING SEAWALLS TO MAKING SURE THAT

MANGROVES GO IN.

SO WE CAN ALSO LOOK AT THAT ALSO DURING THIS REPORT.




THANK YOU VERY MUCH, COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER.

03:48:03 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
DO YOU WANT TO INCLUDE THAT IN YOUR

MOTION?

THINK, WOULD BE FINE SIR.

03:48:07 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND BY MR.

MANISCALCO.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?

CARRIES UNANIMOUSLY.

03:48:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALSO, WE HAVE GOT A MOTION FROM CAROLE

POST IN REFERENCE TO THE STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATIONS FOR

CHAPTER 27 ASKING FOR IT TO BE WORKSHOPPED ON MAY 27th.

IS THAT CORRECT, MR. SHELBY?

03:48:39 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THAT WAS PROVIDED, THAT MEMO WAS PROVIDED

TO CITY COUNCIL, AND THE CLERK DOES HAVE A COPY OF IT.

IT'S A MOTION ON MAY 27th WORKSHOP.

03:48:49 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
DO WE HAVE A TIME CERTAIN, MADAM CLERK?

03:48:59 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF I CAN, I WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THAT.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE MAY CALENDAR, THAT WAS BEFORE COUNCIL

HIGH PRESSURE ITS SPECIAL DISCUSSION MEETING AND TAKING

ACTION AND IT'S STILL GOING TO BE A WORK IN PROGRESS WHEN WE

BRING BACK THE RULES.

BUT ALSO FOR 9:00, IF YOU LOOK AT THE WAY THEY ARE GROUPED,

SEVERAL OF THEM ARE GROUPED FOR THE PURE PROJECT AND I

BELIEVE THERE'S A MEMO THAT'S GOING TO BE FOLLOWING RELATING




TO ADDING TO THE PURE PROJECT.

THEN THERE ARE THE CHAPTER 27 DISCUSSIONS, AND THAT TAKES

PLACE SOMEWHERE AS TO THE SECOND FROM THE LAST.

SO PERHAPS, TO ADD THESE, WE CAN ASK THE CLERK TO GROUP THEM

WITH THE ADMINISTRATION, TO GROUP THEM IN SORT OF AN ORDER.

OTHERWISE IT'S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT.

YOU WILL HAVE TO DO THAT THE DAY OF THE WORKSHOP.

IF YOU SET IT FOR THE 9:00 AS ALL THE OTHERS, IF IT'S

COUNCIL'S DIRECTION TO GROUP THEM BY SUBJECT MATTER, WE CAN

RESET THEM IN A CERTAIN ORDER WITH THE ADMINISTRATION.

03:49:57 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
HOLD ON A SECOND, BILL. CAN WE RESET

THE TWO WEEKS FROM NOW AND STILL HAVE TIME BEFORE THE ACTUAL

WORKSHOP?

MR. SHELBY?

03:50:12 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YOU MEAN REORDER THEM?

03:50:14 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AGREE.

03:50:15 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YES, I SUSPECT WE CAN.

MADAM CLERK?

03:50:18 >> THAT WILL NOT BE AN ISSUE.

03:50:20 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CARLSON, YOUR COMMENT?

03:50:23 >>BILL CARLSON:
SORRY.

I WANTED TO REMIND EVERYBODY IF THE PURE PROJECT CONTINUES

TO MOVE FORWARD THAT CROWDS ARE GOING TO GET LARGER AND

LARGER AND PUBLIC COMMENT.

SO IT COULD BE LONG PUBLIC COMMENT THAT DAY.




THAT'S JUST THE NEXT MEETING BUT THEY ARE GOING TO GET

LARGER AND LARGER.

03:50:39 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
EVEN MORE REASON TO TRY TO SEGREGATE THE

TOTALLY DIFFERENT ISSUES FROM EACH OTHER DURING THAT

SESSION, MR. CHAIRMAN.

03:50:48 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
RECEIVED A SECOND MEMO FROM CHIEF OF STAFF

REGARDING COUNCIL IN CHAMBERS.

03:50:53 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THAT'S ACTUALLY A THIRD ONE, SIR.

IF WE COULD GO BACK TO THE MAY 27th WORKSHOP FOR THE

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS FOR THE 5% OF DIMENSIONAL CRITERIA AS

STATED IN THE MOTION, IT'S WHAT I GUESS THE ADMINISTRATION

IS CALLING ADMINISTRATIVE LAW CREATION, I BELIEVE THAT WAS

AT COUNCIL'S INITIATIVE TO BRING TO THE ADMINISTRATION TO

ASK FOR.

HAS THAT BEEN ADDED TO THE MAY 27 WORKSHOP OR IS THAT STILL

TO BE VOTED ON?

03:51:30 >> STILL TO BE VOTED ON.

03:51:31 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
SO THERE'S A MOTION ON THE FLOOR. CAN WE

TAKE A VOTE TO ADD THAT TO THE MAY 27th WORKSHOP?

BECAUSE WOULD WHAT COULD HAPPEN, COUNCIL, WHEN YOU COME BACK

WITH THE UPDATED CALENDAR YOU WILL SEE WHAT'S ON MAY

27th AND QUITE FRANKLY YOU HAVE AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE

MEETING GENERALLY, AND TWO DECISIONS FROM THE ZONING

ADMINISTRATOR, TWO REVIEW HEARINGS, IT LOOKS LIKE.

BUT THEY ARE ALL SIMILARLY RELATED.




AND THERE'S ANOTHER MOTION, IF YOU TAKE THIS MOTION ON THE

SAME PAGE FROM ABBEY FEELEY, REQUESTING ANOTHER ISSUE

RELATED TO CHAPTER 27, THAT THEY ARE ALSO ASKING FOR MAY

27th.

03:52:10 >>THE CLERK:
MARTY THAT ONE IS ALREADY PLACED ON THE AGENDA

FOR THE 27TH.

03:52:14 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IT ALREADY IS?

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

OKAY, GOOD.

03:52:17 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
SO, MR. CHAIRMAN HAS A PROPOSAL FROM

STAFF TO ADD THE ADDITIONAL CHAPTER 27 ITEM.

WE NEED TO VOTE ON THAT FIRST?

03:52:28 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YES.

MOTION AND SECOND THAT'S ON THE FLOOR.

03:52:31 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
WE HAVE A SECOND?

03:52:32 >>JOSEPH CITRO:
SECOND.

03:52:34 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
MR. CITRO SECOND.

ANY DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION FURTHER?

ALL IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION?

ANY OPPOSED?

03:52:39 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
NOW, MADAM CLERK --

03:52:42 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AND THEN MR. SHELBY, INFORMALLY, I GUESS

AT SOME POINT TWO WEEKS FROM NOW YOU WILL COME BACK AND HELP

US ORGANIZE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN ON THE 27th?




03:52:50 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YES, SIR.

PERHAPS THE CLERK CAN WORK WITH THE ADMINISTRATION AND I

WILL CERTAINLY PARTICIPATE IN THAT TO DO THAT.

IF I CAN INQUIRE OF THE CLERK WITH REGARD TO BRAD BAIRD'S

MEMORANDUM REQUESTING FOR ITEMS, DID YOU WANT TO TAKE THAT

UP NEXT?

03:53:04 >> YES.

THAT IS THE NEXT MOTION, AND THIS ONE IS DULY REQUESTING TO

BE SCHEDULED FOR JUNE 24th WORKSHOP.

03:53:12 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
I GUESS THAT'S ME, MR. CHAIRMAN.

YOU CAN TAKE IT BACK.

03:53:20 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION TO RECEIVE AND FILE.

WE JUST NEED A SECOND ON THE MOTION.

03:53:30 >> SECOND.

03:53:31 >> ON BEHALF OF THE WATER DEPARTMENT, IT LOOKS LIKE, LET'S

SEE, THEY ARE REQUESTING THAT THE -- WHAT DOES THIS MEAN

EXACTLY?

THE ADMINISTRATION REQUESTING THAT THE PUBLIC COMMUNICATION

UPDATE WHICH INCLUDES THE FINDING FROM THE FOUR COMMUNITY

CONVERSATIONS OF PUBLIC SURVEY BE PROVIDED AT COUNCIL'S JUNE

24th, 2021 WORKSHOP.

THAT WOULD BE MY MOTION.

03:53:58 >> SECOND.

03:54:00 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
ALL IN FAVOR?

03:54:02 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
AND DO WE PUT A TIME ON THAT, MR.




SHELBY?

MISS CLERK?

03:54:10 >> THE NEXT AVAILABLE TIME IS 11:
30.

11:30 A.M.

I TAKE THAT BACK.

THE MOTION YOU MADE EARLIER WAS SET FOR 11:30 A.M.

I DON'T KNOW IF WE SET IT IF YOU ARE TAKING A BREAK.

WE CAN SET IT AFTER THE BREAK.

JUNE 24th.

03:54:38 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I DON'T KNOW WHETHER WE SET THAT NEW,

OR -- SET IT FOR 11:30 AND CERTAINLY I WILL WORK WITH THE

CHAIR TO BE ABLE TO WORK OUT THE TIMING ISSUES.

03:54:56 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
FOR NOW JUNE 24th AT 11:30.

03:54:59 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
WE ARE GOING TO GO OVER ANYWAY.

SO TIME CERTAIN REALLY ISN'T GOING TO HELP HALF THE TIME TO

BE HONEST WITH YOU.

IF WE HAVE THAT MANY.

03:55:13 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I'M HAPPY TO HELP YOU.

03:55:16 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
AGAIN I HAVE A MEMO FROM THE CHIEF OF

STAFF REFERENCE TO THE CONVENTION CENTER.

I'M SORRY?

WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR, MR. DINGFELDER, SECOND, MR.

MIRANDA.

ALL IN FAVOR?

ANY OPPOSED?




MOTION CARRIES.

03:55:36 >>JOHN DINGFELDER:
THANK YOU.

03:55:40 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MR. SHELBY, IN REFERENCE TO THE CHIEF OF

STAFF, THE CONVENTION CENTER AND HEALTH DEPARTMENT.

03:55:46 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THAT WAS A MEMO THAT WAS SENT PREVIOUSLY

BY THE CHIEF OF STAFF. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER HE'S STILL ON

THE LINE AND WANTS TO ADDRESS IT BUT I DID HAVE THE

OPPORTUNITY, WE DID TALK ABOUT IT, AND I PROVIDED IT TO YOU,

MR. CHAIRMAN.

COUNCIL PREVIOUSLY I BELIEVE IT WAS DISTRIBUTED TO COUNCIL

MEMBERS, BUT NOW, MR. CHAIRMAN, THE CHIEF OF STAFF WOULD

LIKE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A

WALK-THROUGH WITH YOU AND TO DISCUSS THE OPTIONS THAT ARE

AVAILABLE AND PERHAPS BRING IT BACK TO COUNCIL SO YOUR

OFFICE PERHAPS CAN SCHEDULE THAT.

I DON'T KNOW IF MR. BENNETT IS ON THE LINE AND WISHES TO ADD

ANYTHING ELSE.

03:56:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
IS CHIEF STILL ON THE LINE?

IF NOT, MR. SHELBY WILL GET WITH SONYA, AND SONYA CAN SET UP

THE WALK-THROUGH.

THERE HE IS.

03:56:31 >>JOHN BENNETT:
GOOD AFTERNOON AGAIN.

CHIEF OF STAFF.

WHEN WE DID THE TRANSITIONAL WALK-THROUGH DATING BACK TO THE

SUPER BOWL PERIOD TO KIND OF THE RECENT TIME, IF YOU WILL,




BEFORE THE CHAIRMAN CHANGED ROLES, WE SAW SOME OPPORTUNITIES

IN CHAMBERS TO IMPROVE THE EXPERIENCE, AND ALSO PROGRESS

WITH THE DECLINING OF THE PANDEMIC, BUT YET STILL KEEP

EVERYBODY SAFE, SOCIALLY DISTANCED, SANITIZED, ET CETERA.

SO I JUST THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD BENCHMARK WITH THE

CHANGE OF THE CHAIRS TO DO ANOTHER WALK-THROUGH BOTH FOR THE

CHAMBER SPACE AND THE OFFICE SPACE, AND MAKE SURE THAT

FACILITIES HAS ALL THE VISIONARY OPPORTUNITY TO SUPPORT

COUNCIL AND THE PUBLIC IN THESE FORUMS AS WELL AS THE OTHER

BOARDS.

SO IF THE CHAIRMAN IS AMENABLE TO THAT I WILL WORK WITH THE

FACILITIES TEAM AND WE WILL ARRANGE THAT IN SHORT ORDER.

03:57:31 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
THANK YOU, SIR.

THAT WILL BE FINE.

03:57:33 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MR. CHAIRMAN, IF I COULD FOLLOW-UP FOR

CITY COUNCIL, FOR PURPOSES OF NEXT WEEK'S MEETING, OF

COURSE, THE NOTICES ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE POSTED.

YOU HAVE A CRA MEETING NEXT WEEK, AND YOU HAVE AN EVENING

MEETING, REZONINGS.

AND HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY VERY BRIEFLY TO SPEAK WITH MR.

MASSEY RELATIVE TO THE CRA.

BUT IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ENCOURAGING

PEOPLE TO USE MASKS AND SOCIAL DISTANCING, THE MEETINGS

UNTIL THERE'S DIRECTION FROM COUNCIL WILL BE CONTINUING

PRETTY MUCH IN THE PSALM FORMAT, BUT AS WE WORK WITH THE




CHAIR, AND THE CHAIR WORKS WITH THE ADMINISTRATION, THERE

WILL BE CHANGES, OBVIOUSLY, AS WE MOVE FORWARD, AND THOSE

WILL COME BACK TO COUNCIL, THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME CHANGES,

SO YOU HAVE GOT TO GO WITH THE TIMES AND MAKE SURE WE STILL

STAY SAFE.

OF COURSE AS YOU ALL KNOW, MOST OF THE MEMBERS OF COUNCIL

HAVE BEEN VACCINATED, BUT WHEN DON'T KNOW WHO IS COMING INTO

THE HOUSE SO WE NEED TO STILL PROTECT THE HOUSE.

03:58:32 >>MARTIN SHELBY:
SO THE SECOND FLOOR WILL STILL BE UTILIZED

THE SAME AS THIS WEEK AND IN THE PAST AS WE MOVE FORWARD

NEXT WEEK.

THANK YOU, SIR.

03:58:39 >> MOTION TO RECEIVE AND FILE.

03:58:40 >>ORLANDO GUDES:
MOTION BY MR. MANISCALCO, SECONDED BY MR.

CITRO.

ANY OPPOSED?

MOTION CARRIED.

WE ARE ADJOURNED.

(CITY COUNCIL MEETING ADJOURNED.)
