05:11:29 MR. CHAIRMAN, AGAIN, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO DISCUSS HOW, ON
05:11:33 MONDAY, WE MOVE FORWARD PAST THAT.
05:11:35 BUT IF THAT'S THE APPLICATION, IF THERE IS A SLOT AVAILABLE
05:11:39 PURSUANT TO YOUR CURRENT DIRECTION, I BELIEVE THAT WOULD BE
05:11:42 APPROPRIATE FOR COUNCIL'S DISCRETION.

05:12:48 MORE EFFICIENT PRESENTATION AT THAT TIME, AND WILL BE VERY

05:14:40 CONTINUANCE TO THE NOVEMBER 18th CITY COUNCIL DATE.
05:14:44 WE ARE READY TO GO BUT BEFORE -- WE REQUESTED A CONTINUANCE
05:14:49 BECAUSE WE ARE WORKING WITH BEACH PARK AND SOME OF THE OTHER
05:14:52 NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS OVER THERE, AND WE ARE WORKING ON
05:14:56 SPECIFICALLY TRYING TO REASSIGN THE PROPERTY TO A LESS
05:15:00 CONGESTED SCHOOL DISTRICT AND WERE HOPING WE WOULD BE
05:15:03 FURTHER ALONG WITH THAT PROCESS THAN WE ARE TODAY, SO IN
05:15:06 GOOD FAITH WE AGREED TO CONTINUE THIS CASE TO NOVEMBER
05:15:09 19th AT THEIR REQUEST BECAUSE THEY WOULD LIKE SOME
05:15:13 FURTHER ASSURANCES FROM THE SCHOOL BOARD THAT THIS IS GOING
05:15:15 TO HAPPEN, AND OBVIOUSLY THIS ISN'T SOMETHING THAT WE COULD
05:15:18 CONDITION THE ZONING ON SO WE AGREED TO GO AHEAD AND REQUEST
05:15:21 A CONTINUANCE AND WE KNOW THAT WITHIN THE LETTER THAT WE
05:15:25 WAIVED THE 180-DAY TIME FRAME AND WOULD RESPECT FRIDAY
05:15:28 REQUEST YOU APPROVE IT.

05:15:50 >>KAMI CORBETT: THIS IS OUR FIRST.
05:15:51 WE WERE READY TO GO.
05:15:54 BUT TIME WITH THE SCHOOL BOARD -- OKAY, THANKS.

05:26:51 AS STATED ON THE REVISION SHEET.

05:26:54 I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.
05:26:56 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS OF STAFF?
05:26:58 ANY QUESTIONS OF STAFF?
05:27:01 SEEING NO ONE, THE APPLICANT?
05:27:06 HAVE YOU BEEN SWORN, SIR?
05:27:07 >> GOOD EVENING.
05:27:10 >>ORLANDO GUDES: HAVE YOU BEEN SWORN, SIR?

05:27:13 THANK YOU.
05:27:14 GOOD EVENING.
05:27:16 RALPH SCHULER, ARCHITECT, 2401 NORTH HOWARD AVENUE, AGENT
05:27:20 FOR THE APPLICANT.
05:27:21 THE APPLICATION THAT CITY STAFF DESCRIBED AS PART OF THE
05:27:26 FINAL STAFF REPORT BEFORE YOU IS A SINGLE-FAMILY
05:27:28 SEMI-DETACHED DEVELOPMENT WITH TWO UNITS BEING ON PALM
05:27:32 AVENUE, WHICH REFLECT A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME BUT ACTUALLY IS A
05:27:37 DUPLEX TOWNHOUSE, SIMILAR PROPERTY ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF PALM
05:27:42 AVENUE, AND/OR PROFESSIONAL OFFICE SPACE AROUND ADJACENT.
05:27:48 WE ALSO HAVE TWO ADDITIONAL UNITS OVER THE GARAGE, BOTH
05:27:53 STUDIO ONE BEDROOM, THAT ALLOWS FOR SIMILAR DEVELOPMENT
05:27:59 STALE OF OTHER UNITS WITHIN THIS AREA.
05:28:05 I WANT TO GO TO THE ZONING MAP.
05:28:13 AS DESCRIBED BY STAFF, WE ARE HERE.
05:28:16 WE HAVE SOME OTHER SIMILAR PROPERTIES ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF
05:28:22 EAST PALM, AND ANOTHER OLD HISTORIC HOUSE HERE, HERE, HERE
05:28:27 AND THERE.
05:28:27 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ONE SECOND.
05:28:33 WE CAN'T SEE IT ON OUR MONITORS ON THE DAIS.
05:28:37 ALL RIGHT.
05:28:38 CONTINUE.
05:28:39 >> DO YOU WANT ME TO REPEAT THAT?
05:28:43 AGAIN THIS IS OUR SUBJECT SITE.
05:28:45 WE HAVE SIMILAR PROPERTIES IN DEVELOPMENT STYLE ALONG THE
05:28:49 SOUTH EDGE OF PALM AVENUE.
05:28:54 HERE AS ANNIE ALLUDED TO, WE ARE IN AN EXTREMELY DENSE
05:28:57 ZONING, PALM AVENUE IS HERE, SO EVERYWHERE SURROUNDING THIS
05:29:05 THE FUTURE LAND USE IS ALREADY -- IT WOULD BE ALLOWED TO UP
05:29:09 TO 15 UNITS HERE WHICH WOULD OBVIOUSLY NEVER WORK, BUT WE
05:29:12 ARE ASKING FOR 4, EXTREMELY APPROPRIATE DENSITY FOR THIS
05:29:19 PARTICULAR LOT.
05:29:38 AGAIN TO REVIEW OUR SITE PLAN, OUR SITE PLAN HAS A COUPLE
05:29:46 SIGNIFICANT THINGS.
05:29:48 FIRST OF ALL, WE HAVE BEEN AND PRESENTED A PROJECT THROUGH
05:29:51 THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION AND GOT SUPPORT FOR THIS
05:29:56 PROJECT FOR SEVERAL REASONS.
05:29:58 FIRST AND FOREMOST, WE HAVE AN EXISTING HOUSE HERE AND
05:30:02 EXISTING HOUSE HERE.
05:30:03 WE ARE TAKING A LOT AVERAGE OF THAT HOUSE TO CREATE THE
05:30:05 SETBACK HERE WHICH IS ABOUT 19 FEET.
05:30:08 WE HAVE AGAIN TWO UNITS WHICH WILL WORK LIKE A SINGLE-FAMILY
05:30:14 HOUSE IN SCALE AND MASSING.
05:30:15 THE COURTYARD HERE IN THE MIDDLE, TWO SEPARATE -- I'M SORRY,
05:30:21 TWO, TWO-CAR GARAGES, TO MAKE A PARTY WALL.
05:30:26 AGAIN THE INTENT IS TO REALLY HAVE TWO SINGLE-FAMILY
05:30:31 SEMI-DETACHED PROPERTIES THAT COULD BE SOLD INDEPENDENTLY,
05:30:35 AND SO EACH SIDE, AGAIN VERY TRADITIONAL TOWNHOUSE, A
05:30:42 TWO-CAR GARAGE, A STUDIO ABOVE THE TWO-CAR GARAGE, A PARKING
05:30:48 SPACE FOR THE STUDIO.
05:30:50 ADDITIONAL VISITORS SPACE HERE, WE COME UP WITH 8 SPACES.
05:30:56 THE REASON WHY TRANSPORTATION SAYS WE NEED 9, THEY BELIEVE,
05:30:59 AND THEY ARE CALLING EACH A DWELLING UNIT AND THEY WANT TWO
05:31:03 SPACES FOR EACH STUDIO, WHICH I UNDERSTAND IT MAY BE
05:31:07 TECHNICALLY CORRECT BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S PRACTICAL.
05:31:10 SO WE AGAIN ARE PROVIDING 8 PARKING SPACES.
05:31:15 WE THINK IT'S MORE THAN SUFFICIENT FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT.
05:31:17 WE ALSO HAVE TWO LARGE CAMPHOR TREES HERE.
05:31:21 WE ARE PROTECTING THOSE CAMPHOR TREES WHICH GOING OVER
05:31:25 SLIGHTLY TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN.
05:31:28 WE HAVE ALL OF OUR AIR CONDITIONING AND OTHER NOT SEEN FROM
05:31:34 THE STREET AS REQUIRED.
05:31:36 THIS ALLEY IS CURRENTLY IMPROVED, AND WE WOULD HAVE ALL OF
05:31:39 OUR ACCESS FROM THE ALLEY EXCEPT FOR JUST A RIBBON DRIVE FOR
05:31:45 VISITOR PARKING.
05:31:48 BRIEFLY SHOW YOU THE ELEVATIONS.
05:31:57 AGAIN, THIS IS THE FRONT ON PALM HERE.
05:32:00 THIS WOULD AGAIN GO THROUGH A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
05:32:04 THROUGH CITY COUNCIL -- I'M SORRY, THROUGH ARC AFTER YOU
05:32:10 APPROVE THIS REZONING.
05:32:11 WE WOULD COME BACK AND GET SPECIFIC AGREEMENTS ON THAT
05:32:17 THROUGH ARC AND THAT'S SCHEDULED FOR JANUARY.
05:32:20 AGAIN, VERNACULAR HOUSE WITH A METAL ROOF, LAP SIDING, ALL
05:32:29 THE THINGS THAT ARE PART OF THE TAMPA HEIGHTS EMBRACES.
05:32:36 QUICKLY, THIS IS THE -- AGAIN THE STUDIO APARTMENT, WITH THE
05:32:44 GARAGE.
05:32:48 SO THE STAFF REPORT AGAIN, WE HAVE REVIEWED IT.
05:32:55 WE WOULD MAKE ALL THE NOTED CORRECTIONS BETWEEN FIRST AND
05:32:58 SECOND READING TO MAKE SOME OF THESE CLEAN-UP ITEMS.
05:33:02 SAME THING WITH NATURAL RESOURCES.
05:33:04 AGAIN, ABOUT TRANSPORTATION AND WHY THEY SAY IT'S
05:33:11 INCONSISTENT, WHICH I AGAIN BELIEVE IS REALLY YOU ONLY NEED
05:33:15 7, NOT 9 PARKING SPACES.
05:33:18 WE HAVE PROVIDED 8.
05:33:19 ALSO, ALL THE CONSIDERATIONS ON THE STAFF REPORT, I THINK WE
05:33:24 MEET ALL OF THOSE CONSIDERATIONS.
05:33:26 WE MEET THE FABRIC IN THE SURROUNDING AREA OF THE TAMPA
05:33:29 HEIGHTS HISTORIC DISTRICT.
05:33:30 WE HAVE SIMILAR DENSITY AND ZONING OF THE AREA.
05:33:33 WE HAVE TWO TOWNHOUSE STYLE FEE SIMPLE PROJECTS.
05:33:36 WE WILL PROMOTE THE QUALITY OF IN-FILL HOUSING, IN AN AREA
05:33:41 OF THE CITY WHERE ADDITIONAL DWELLING UNITS ARE DESPERATELY
05:33:44 NEEDED.
05:33:44 AND UTILIZE UNDERDEVELOPED VACANT LAND.
05:33:50 SO ALL THE WAIVERS THAT WE HAVE ARE TECHNICAL IN NATURE AND
05:33:54 DO NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT THE ADJACENT NEIGHBORS.
05:33:58 SO IN CONCLUSION THE PROJECT IS USING VACANT UNDEVELOPED
05:34:01 LAND, WITH DEVELOP PROJECT IN SCALE, THAT CONFIRMS
05:34:07 CONFORMANCE TO THE GOALS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AT LARGE IN THE
05:34:09 TAMPA HEIGHTS HISTORIC DISTRICT.
05:34:11 I WOULD ASK IF YOU APPROVE THIS PROJECT TONIGHT.
05:34:13 I AM HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
05:34:15 I HAVE SOME NEIGHBORS HERE TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE
05:34:18 PROJECT.

05:34:50 ALSO A RIBBON DRIVE ON PALM AVENUE WITH TWO TANDEM SPACES
05:34:55 HERE FOR A TOTAL OF 8 SPACES.
05:34:58 >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.

05:35:05 HOW FAR IS THAT FROM THE END OF THE BUILDING TO THE SOUTH TO

05:35:14 >> SO WE HAVE A 10-FOOT SETBACK FOR VEHICULAR REQUIRED BY
05:35:19 TRANSPORTATION, THEN THIS STUDIO IS 24 FEET DEEP, SO THE
05:35:24 BEGINNING OF THAT IS ABOUT 30, 32 FEET.
05:35:29 >>JOSEPH CITRO: WITH A 10-FOOT APRON.

05:40:06 BUT WE DO HAVE SUFFICIENT STREET PARKING ALONG CENTRAL AND
05:40:10 OF COURSE STREET PARKING CURRENTLY SOUTH AND WEST OF THIS
05:40:14 PROJECT, BUT AS THE CITY DEVELOPS, THE PARKING PROBLEM I
05:40:20 THINK IS EVENTUALLY SOMETHING WE WILL ALL DEAL WITH BUT I

05:40:52 ONE SPACE.
05:40:55 TRANSPORTATION FEELS STRONGLY ABOUT THAT.
05:41:03 AS THE PETITIONER HAS SUGGESTED, IS THERE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR
05:41:09 NOT NECESSARILY ON PALM BUT AROUND THE CORNER ON CENTRAL OR
05:41:12 SOME OF THE OTHER NEARBY STREETS?
05:41:17 >>JONATHAN SCOTT: THERE IS STREET PARKING, NO-PARKING SIGN,
05:41:21 CLOSE TO STOP SIGNS, BUT I THINK THEY HAVE DONE A PRETTY
05:41:26 GOOD JOB OF MAXIMIZING PARKING ON THE SITE.
05:41:29 IT'S JUST FOUR UNITS, TWO SPACES, BUT I THOUGHT HE DID A
05:41:35 PRETTY GOOD JOB GETTING AS MANY PARKING SPACES AS HE DID ON
05:41:39 THERE.
05:41:40 WE ARE OBJECTING TO THE PARKING WAIVER --
05:41:43 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: JUST AS A MATTER OF FORMALITY?
05:41:48 >>JONATHAN SCOTT: YES.

05:48:21 PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED DWELLINGS AND
05:48:23 ACCESSORY GARAGES.
05:48:27 AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, THIS IS AN AERIAL MAP, SURROUNDING
05:48:30 ZONING, A MIXTURE OF RESIDENTIAL AND OFFICE USES IN THE
05:48:33 IMMEDIATE AREA.
05:48:34 PROPERTY IS LOCATED ACROSS NORTH BOULEVARD IS ZONED
05:48:38 RESIDENTIAL OFFICE AND DEVELOPMENT DEVELOPED OFFICE USE.
05:48:42 PROPERTY SOUTH OF THE SITE IS ZONED RESIDENTIAL OFFICE AS
05:48:45 WELL, SINGLE-FAMILY USE.
05:48:48 PROPERTY DIRECTLY NORTH OF THE SITE IS ZONED PD AND BUSINESS
05:48:54 PROFESSIONAL OFFICE AND EAST OF THE SITE RS-50 AND DEVELOPED
05:48:58 SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USES.
05:49:01 HERE IS A PICTURE OF THE SUBJECT SITE AS IT IS NOW.
05:49:06 AND THIS IS A PICTURE OF THE PROPERTY WILL GO SOUTH ON NORTH
05:49:09 BOULEVARD AVENUE.
05:49:10 >>ORLANDO GUDES: CAN YOU GO TO THAT LAST PHOTO?
05:49:14 >> YES.
05:49:15 THE SUBJECT SITE IS ON THE LEFT IN THE FENCED AREA.
05:49:18 >>ORLANDO GUDES: AND THE ONE BEFORE THAT.
05:49:19 >>ANNIE BARNES: THIS --
05:49:24 >>ORLANDO GUDES: THAT'S THE LOT THERE, RIGHT?
05:49:26 >>ANNIE BARNES: THAT IS CORRECT.
05:49:27 >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU.
05:49:28 >>ANNIE BARNES: NO PROBLEM.
05:49:32 SHOWN HERE IS PROPERTY LOCATED ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE
05:49:35 SUBJECT SITE ALONG NORTH BOULEVARD.
05:49:39 AND THIS IS FACING THE OTHER WAY, NORTHWARD, NORTHWEST ON
05:49:45 NORTH BOULEVARD AS WELL.
05:49:48 SHOWN HERE AS YOU CAN SEE, THE SUBJECT PARCEL WITH THE
05:49:51 ADJACENT HOME NEXT TO IT.
05:49:59 AND HERE ARE SOME OF THE OFFICES THAT WERE DESCRIBED
05:50:02 EARLIER, AND THE SITE LOCATED ON THE RIGHT.
05:50:08 THIS IS THE ALLEY CURRENTLY AS IT RUNS BEHIND FACING
05:50:12 NORTHWARD, NORTHWARD.
05:50:15 AND THEN AGAIN, HERE IS OFFICE ACROSS THE STREET.
05:50:20 IT IS TWO-STORY IN SIZE BUT SET BACK QUITE A BIT.
05:50:26 AGAIN, THIS IS THE ALLEY FACING SOUTH.
05:50:30 SO FROM BOTH SIDES.
05:50:32 YOU CAN SEE THE ALLEY.
05:50:35 IN ACCORDANCE WITH POLICY 9.38, THE PROPOSED LOT MEASURING
05:50:39 40 FEET are consistent with the existing development
05:50:43 pattern.
05:50:46 The requested waivers result in safety concern that could
05:50:49 create an adverse impact on the immediate neighborhood.
05:50:52 The massing and the height of the proposed two-story
05:50:55 structures are measuring 40 feet in width is too large
05:50:59 especially in a neighborhood comprised of smaller one-story
05:51:02 structures.
05:51:03 Therefore, development review staff has reviewed the
05:51:06 application and find the overall request inconsistent.
05:51:10 That concludes my report.
05:51:12 I'm available for any questions you might have.
05:51:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES: Any questions of staff?
05:51:23 And that first building, that area, that lot --
05:51:31 >>ANNIE BARNES: Can you see it now?
05:51:33 >>ORLANDO GUDES: Yes.
05:51:34 Proposed a two, two-story dwelling on this property, is that
05:51:39 correct?
05:51:40 >>ANNIE BARNES: That is correct.
05:51:41 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: The lot is a total of 80 feet wide?
05:51:45 >>ANNIE BARNES: That is correct.
05:51:47 AS ORIGINALLY PLATTED.
05:51:49 IF I GO BACK TO MY ORIGINAL PRESENTATION I CAN SHOW YOU THE
05:51:52 ORIGINAL PLATTED LOT.
05:51:54 SO HERE IS A SURVEY SHOWING HERE, AND THEN THESE ARE THE
05:51:59 HISTORICALLY PLATTED LOTS.
05:52:00 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, GENTLEMEN?
05:52:10 ALL RIGHT.
05:52:10 LET'S HEAR FROM THE APPLICANT.
05:52:11 >> GOOD EVENING.
05:52:17 I'M JOHN LAROCCA, REPRESENTING THE OWNER, APPLICANT, JOHN
05:52:23 AND ALEXANDRIA DIAZ, OWNERS OF THE PROPERTY.
05:52:27 I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.
05:52:28 >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR.
05:52:32 >>JOHN LAROCCA: ALL THE DETAILS WITH THIS CASE HAVE BEEN
05:52:33 THOROUGHLY DESCRIBED.
05:52:35 BY THE CITY'S DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION PRESENTATION AND THE
05:52:38 PLANNING COMMISSION.
05:52:39 I AM NOT GOING TO REPEAT EVERYTHING THAT'S IN THE REPORT.
05:52:42 THE STAFF ALWAYS DOES A VERY THOROUGH JOB.
05:52:46 AGAIN I WILL NOT REITERATE ALL OF THEM.
05:52:48 I DO WANT TO ADDRESS AND RESPOND TO THE MATTERS OF THE
05:52:51 INCONSISTENCY DESCRIBED IN THE REPORT.
05:52:54 REGARDING THE DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION STAFF FINDINGS OF
05:52:57 CONCERN RELATED TO THE WIDTH OF THE ALLEY ACCESS, THIS IS AN
05:53:01 EXISTING ALLEY IN A PLAT THAT WAS CREATED IN 1918.
05:53:07 THERE ARE SOME HOMES OBVIOUSLY THAT ACCESS OR ARE LOCATED ON
05:53:12 THE ALLEY FROM HISTORICAL PURPOSES IN REFERENCE AND
05:53:17 DEVELOPMENT, BUT IT IS AN EXISTING SITUATION.
05:53:20 WE ARE TRYING TO DESIGN AND INTRODUCE REDEVELOPMENT TO THE
05:53:23 AREA AS IT'S OCCURRING THROUGHOUT THE AREA IN THE BROADER
05:53:26 NEIGHBORHOOD, AS YOU ARE QUITE FAMILIAR WITH.
05:53:29 IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, WE ARE TRYING TO ACCOMMODATE AND
05:53:34 BEST DESIGN A PRODUCT THAT IS VERY MARKETABLE IN THAT PART
05:53:41 OF THE CITY AS OUR ENVIRONS IN THE URBAN AREA ARE BEING
05:53:48 REEXAMINED AND REDISCOVERED.
05:53:52 THERE IS A LOT OF OTHER EXAMPLES OF THIS IN THE COMMUNITY,
05:53:56 AND WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING TO DO, WE UNDERSTAND THOSE
05:53:59 DIMENSIONAL LIMITATIONS IN THE ALLEY WHERE THE LOTS AND
05:54:03 PARKING GARAGES ARE PROPOSED.
05:54:05 THE LOTS DO FRONT ON NORTH BOULEVARD, WHICH IS A FUNCTIONAL
05:54:09 ARTERIAL STREET.
05:54:11 ALLEYS WHEN AVAILABLE ARE USUALLY IN AN APPROPRIATE AND
05:54:15 ACCEPTABLE MEANS AND ALTERNATIVE ACCESS FOR RESIDENTIAL USES
05:54:19 UP FRONT ON ARTERIAL ROADS AND MOST PEOPLE WOULD PREFER TO
05:54:23 HAVE ALLEY ACCESS TO MAKE IT WORK.
05:54:25 THE APPLICANT SEEKS THIS WAIVER FROM THE STANDARD
05:54:27 DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS TO RECOGNIZE THE EXISTING
05:54:30 CONDITIONS PROVIDED AT THE TIME OF PERMITTING AS HAS BEEN
05:54:34 DISCUSSED WITH STAFF.
05:54:37 ACCEPTABLE MEANS AND METHODS TO MINIMIZE LIMITATIONS TO
05:54:40 VEHICULAR IMPROVEMENT MOVEMENT AND VISIBILITY TO INCLUDE BUT
05:54:43 NOT BE LIMITED TO THE INSTALLATION OF SAFETY STUDY AND
05:54:50 POSSIBLY ESTABLISH A ONE-WAY FLOW BECAUSE WE BELIEVE
05:54:53 OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NEW DEVELOPMENT, BUT AS THE AREA
05:54:56 REDEVELOPS, THERE MAY BE OTHER CONTINUED NEED FOR USE OF
05:55:02 THAT ALLEY, AND POTENTIALLY ESTABLISHING A ONE-WAY FLOW, IF
05:55:07 THAT MAKES SENSE, IS SOMETHING THAT THE APPLICANT IS WILLING
05:55:09 TO EXPLORE WITH THE CITY AS AN OPTION.
05:55:13 AND POSSIBLY ADJUST THE GARAGE BUILDING PLACEMENT IN FINAL
05:55:18 DESIGN TO BEST ACCOMMODATE SAFETY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
05:55:21 CITY'S REVIEW AND APPROVAL.
05:55:26 THEREFORE, WE BELIEVE SOME TYPE OF WAIVER TO RECOGNIZE WHAT
05:55:31 WOULD BE APPROPRIATE ACCESSORY GARAGE PARKING IN WHAT WILL
05:55:37 BE A MODERNLY PLACED AN CONSTRUCTED STRUCTURE IS
05:55:42 APPROPRIATE, AND WAIVERS ARE JUSTIFIABLE IN THAT REGARD
05:55:49 AGAIN WITH THE SUMS THAT WE CAN WORK OUT SOME SOLUTIONS THAT
05:55:52 ARE SATISFACTORY AT THE TIME OF PERMITTING.
05:55:54 THE OTHER INCONSISTENCY REGARDING MASSING AND HEIGHT WITH
05:55:57 REGARD TO DON INSTRUCTION ON THESE TWO LOTS, IN YOUR PACKET,
05:56:03 AND I KNOW THERE ARE SITE PLANS THAT WERE ILLUSTRATED ON THE
05:56:07 SCREEN EARLIER, THESE ARE TWO EXISTING PLATTED LOTS OF
05:56:11 RECORD THAT ARE 40 FEET WIDE.
05:56:13 THE TWO STRUCTURES THAT ARE PROPOSED ON THE LOT ARE 26 FEET
05:56:18 WIDE AND HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED ELSEWHERE SUCCESSFULLY AND
05:56:24 MARKETABLE.
05:56:27 THE USES AND INTENSITY OF USE, THE DENSITY OF USE WOULD BE
05:56:30 CONSISTENT WITH THE ADOPTED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
05:56:34 MANY OF THE LOTS IN THE STUDY AREA SURROUNDING THAT AREA
05:56:38 DEVELOPED AND CREATED AT LESS THAN 49.99 FEET.
05:56:42 OF THE WOULD NOT BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT
05:56:46 PATTERN, AND I HAVE ON THE OVERHEAD THE BUFFER MAP THAT WE
05:56:51 UTILIZE THAT BEST DEPICTS THE PROPERTY'S LOCATION AND THE
05:56:55 PROPERTY OWNER THAT WERE NOTIFIED WITH THIS REZONING WITHIN
05:56:58 THE 250 FEET.
05:57:01 I WILL NOTE THAT WHILE I DO BRING EXAMPLES OR PICTURES OF
05:57:05 THAT, THE PROPERTY ON THE EAST SIDE OF BOULEVARD IN THE
05:57:08 BLOCK SOUTH OF WEST PLAZA AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MAP IS BEING
05:57:14 DEVELOPED WITH ATTACHED TOWNHOUSES.
05:57:16 ATTACHED AND MORE DENSE IN TERMS OF CHARACTER AND INTERFACE
05:57:19 WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THEIR FRONTAGE IS AN AREA ON THE
05:57:23 STREET, AND AGAIN ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT
05:57:25 THAT'S OCCURRING IN THE AREA.
05:57:27 WITH THAT SAID, MORE SPECIFICALLY, THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED
05:57:30 ON AN ARTERIAL ROAD WITH A MIX OF RESIDENTIAL AND OFFICE
05:57:34 USES LOCATED ON THE EDGE OF THE PLATTED NEIGHBORHOOD AS YOU
05:57:37 MOVE FARTHER EAST AND FARTHER WEST OF BOULEVARD.
05:57:42 THE BROADER COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD SURROUNDING THIS
05:57:45 PROPERTY ARE ALL EXPERIENCING INFILL AND REDEVELOPMENT WITH
05:57:49 A MIX OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNS IN BOTH ONE AND TWO-STORY
05:57:53 STRUCTURES, SOME THAT ARE IN THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT
05:57:55 STAGE NOW, OTHERS THAT ARE JUST BEING CONSTRUCTED, OTHERS
05:57:58 THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT.
05:57:59 THE FACT THAT THESE TWO LOTS ON BOULEVARD, AND WE ARE
05:58:02 ATTEMPTING TO PROVIDE THROUGH THIS PROCESS IN THE WAY THAT
05:58:05 WE SEE ACCESS THROUGH THE ALLEY, WE BELIEVE WOULD ALLOW ONCE
05:58:11 DEVELOPED AS INDICATED IN THESE PLANS SOMETHING THAT WOULD
05:58:13 BE IN FACT COMPATIBLE AND CONSISTENT WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:58:16 THE REZONING AS PRESENTED TO THE PD SITE PLAN SUPPORTS MANY
05:58:20 OF THE POLICIES OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AS DETAILED IN
05:58:22 THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S ANALYSIS AND REPORT WHICH YOU HAVE
05:58:25 WITH YOU.
05:58:26 AS YOU KNOW, REZONINGS ARE TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS,
05:58:29 OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
05:58:33 IT'S MY OPINION THAT THE REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
05:58:35 CHARACTER OF THE BUILDINGS IN THE AREA BECAUSE OF THE
05:58:37 TWO-STORY HEIGHT AND MASSING BEING CONSISTENT, MEETING
05:58:42 ACCEPTABLE STRUCTURAL SETBACKS.
05:58:44 THE PROPOSAL IS COMPATIBLE AND COMPARABLE WITH THE
05:58:47 DEVELOPMENT PATTERN LONG NORTH BOULEVARD AND IS CONSISTENT
05:58:49 WITH THE LONG RANGE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ENCOURAGED UNDER THE
05:58:52 RESIDENTIAL 10 FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORY.
05:58:54 THAT BEING IN THE CASE OF NORTH BOULEVARD, A MIXTURE OF USES
05:58:59 THAT WOULD NOT BE IN COMPATIBLE WITH TWO-STORY STRUCTURES.
05:59:02 THE APPLICANT OWNER AGREES WITH THE REVISIONS REQUESTED AS
05:59:06 OUTLINED IN REVISION SHEET NUMBER 6, PAGE NUMBER 6 OF THE
05:59:11 STAFF REPORT AND INTENDS TO MAKE SUCH SITE PLAN REVISIONS
05:59:14 BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
05:59:16 WITH THAT I CONCLUDE MY COMMENTS AND RESPECTFULLY REQUEST
05:59:19 YOUR SUPPORT AND APPROVAL F.NECESSARY, WITH ANY PARTICULAR
05:59:22 DETAIL, JOHN DIAZ, THE OWNER APPLICANT IS HERE THIS EVENING
05:59:26 AND CAN ANSWER ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS WITH REGARD TO WHAT IS
05:59:29 BEING PROPOSED WITH DESIGN AND STRUCTURE AND THE MARKET THAT
05:59:34 HE IS SEEKING TO MARKET THESE PROPERTIES TO.
05:59:39 THANK YOU.
05:59:39 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS?
05:59:42 MR. DINGFELDER.
05:59:44 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN, MR. LAROCCA.
05:59:46 JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS.
05:59:49 NUMBER ONE, COULDN'T HELP BUT NOTICE THE BIG TREE IN THE
05:59:55 MIDDLE BEHIND THE FENCE, LOOKS LIKE IT'S BEING SUBJECT TO
06:00:00 REMOVAL AS PART OF THE PD REQUEST.
06:00:05 >>JOHN LAROCCA: RIGHT.
06:00:05 CORRECT.
06:00:06 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I COULD ASK STAFF OR I COULD ASK YOU, IF
06:00:09 YOU WISH, FOR THE STATUS OF THAT TREE AND WHAT CONDITION
06:00:12 IT'S IN.
06:00:12 IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S JUST -- I MEAN, IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S ONE
06:00:18 LARGER ONE.
06:00:20 >>JOHN LAROCCA: I DON'T -- FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE WHAT HAS
06:00:23 BEEN REVIEWED, THERE'S NOTHING -- IT'S NOT GRAND TREES, AND
06:00:29 THERE ARE MITIGATION BASED ON THE TREES THAT NEED TO BE
06:00:32 REMOVED.
06:00:33 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: LET ME ASK STAFF, IF WE HAVE ANY STAFF
06:00:36 SPEAKING TO THE TREES.
06:00:37 >> YES.
06:00:39 ANN MERE, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR IN ANY CASE, NATURAL
06:00:42 RESOURCES.
06:00:43 GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
06:00:46 YES, THAT IS A 21-INCH LAUREL OAK, AND IT DOES HAVE FUNGS ON
06:00:53 THE ROOT FLARE SO WE ARE IN SUPPORT OF REMOVAL OF THAT TREE.
06:00:58 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: DOES IT HAVE -- I'M SORRY.
06:01:01 DOES IT HAVE A GRADE OR A CONDITION OR NUMBER?
06:01:06 >> ERIN MAEHR: YES, IT'S E-9 SO A HAZARDOUS TREE.
06:01:16 >>JOHN LAROCCA: AND IF I MAY, MR. DINGFELDER, I DIDN'T
06:01:18 CONCENTRATE ON HAVING THE TREE DETAILS AND THANK YOU, ERIN
06:01:21 FOR ANSWERING THOSE QUESTIONS BUT TREES WERE NEVER AN ISSUE
06:01:24 OTHER THAN COMPLIANCE WITH THAN THE CODE AS WE MOVE FORWARD.
06:01:27 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY.
06:01:28 THEN THE OTHER QUESTION IS MORE PROSTHETIC.
06:01:45 IS THERE A SIDEWALK ALONG BOULEVARD ALREADY?
06:01:50 >>JOHN LAROCCA: THERE IS A SIDEWALK ON BOULEVARD, YES.
06:01:51 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I CAN'T TELL WHICH ONE, BUT WHEN I LOOK
06:01:54 AT THE ELEVATION SHEET ON PAGE 2 -- [~AUDIO CUTS OUT~]
06:02:06 I KNOW YOU AND COUNCIL ALWAYS WANT TO ENCOURAGE FRONT
06:02:10 PORCHES FOR NUMEROUS REASONS THAT I DON'T NEED TO GET INTO
06:02:14 TONIGHT, BUT IT APPEARS THE OTHER ONE IS ANOTHER SMALL
06:02:18 LITTLE, YOU KNOW, JUST A DOOR OPENING AND A COVER BUT REALLY
06:02:22 NOT A PORCH YOU CAN SIT ON AND ENJOY CONVERSING WITH YOUR
06:02:28 NEIGHBORS, ET CETERA.
06:02:31 SO ALTHOUGH I APPRECIATE THE FACT YOU WANT A LITTLE
06:02:34 DIVERSITY FROM ONE HOUSE TO THE NEXT INSTEAD OF COOKIE
06:02:38 CUTTER BEING THE SAME, I JUST WAS CURIOUS AS TO WHY THE
06:02:42 DEVELOPER WOULD CHOOSE NOT TO HAVE A GOOD SIZE FRONT PORCH
06:02:46 THERE.
06:02:51 >>JOHN LAROCCA: IF YOU DON'T MIND, LET ME ASK JOHN DIAZ, THE
06:02:55 OWNER APPLICANT, WHO HAPPENS TO BE A BUILDER ADDRESS THAT
06:02:57 AND I BELIEVE HE'S WILLING TO TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION.
06:03:00 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: YOU GUYS HAVE BOTH BEEN SWORN?
06:03:04 >> YES, I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.
06:03:07 JOHN DIAZ.
06:03:10 GOOD EVENING.
06:03:10 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: YOU HEARD THE QUESTION, MR. DIAZ?
06:03:13 >> I DID.
06:03:14 I DID. SO WE WERE TRYING TO DO SOMETHING WHERE WE ARE
06:03:19 RECOGNIZING THE PAST AND THE PRESENT, RIGHT?
06:03:24 OR THE FUTURE.
06:03:24 SO WE DID, TO YOUR POINT, WANT TO AVOID BRINGING IN TWO
06:03:29 COOKIE CUTTER HOMES.
06:03:30 SO WE HAD ONE THAT'S A LITTLE MORE MODERN, ONE THAT'S A
06:03:34 LITTLE MORE CLASSIC.
06:03:35 AS FAR AS THE FRONT PORCH COMMUNITY, WE UNDERSTAND THE
06:03:37 IMPORTANCE IN TAMPA HEIGHTS OF HAVING THE FRONT PORCH.
06:03:42 WE ACTUALLY HAVE SIDE PORCHES, AND WE ARE CONSIDERING
06:03:45 WHETHER WE HAVE THE GATES HELD BACK FROM THE SIDE, IF YOU
06:03:51 LOOK, YOU WILL SEE THAT BOTH HOUSES WILL HAVE LIKE A SIDE
06:03:55 PORCH.
06:03:55 SO WE ARE KIND OF THINKING PERHAPS MORE LIKE IN THE SHADE,
06:03:59 FACING THE WEST SIDE, AND FACING THE SUNSET, AND SO WE JUST
06:04:05 DIDN'T WANT -- DIDN'T THINK PEOPLE WOULD BE SITTING THERE IN
06:04:08 THE SUN.
06:04:09 SO WE HAVE THOSE SIDE PORCHES FOR THEM TO ENJOY.
06:04:11 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: SO THAT'S YOUR NORTH ELEVATION ON ONE,
06:04:20 AND --
06:04:25 >> CORRECT.
06:04:25 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: ALL RIGHT.
06:04:30 WE DON'T HAVE A REQUIREMENT FOR FRONT PORCHES.
06:04:32 IT SEEMS LIKE ESSENTIALLY WITH THE WAY THE CODE IS WRITTEN,
06:04:37 YOU KNOW, THERE'S OPPORTUNITY TO EVEN ACTUALLY INTRUDE IN
06:04:40 THE FRONT YARD SETBACK WITH FRONT PORCHES.
06:04:44 I JUST HOPE YOU ARE AWARE OF THAT, AND MAYBE NEXT TIME.
06:04:48 >> WE'LL CERTAINLY TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION.
06:04:51 THANK YOU.
06:04:52 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU.
06:04:53 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYONE ELSE?
06:04:54 >>JOSEPH CITRO: IF I MAY.
06:04:59 [OFF MICROPHONE] THE GARAGE, THE ALLEYWAY.
06:05:09 AND THE ALLEYWAY, HOW MANY FEET IS THAT, 18 FOOT?
06:05:13 >> THE ALLEY IS 10 FEET.
06:05:16 >>JOSEPH CITRO: 10 FEET.
06:05:18 SO INCLUDING THE APRON AND THE ALLEY, YOU ARE 13 FEET THERE.
06:05:24 MY CONCERN IS, THE EDGES FOR THE TWO-CAR GARAGE IN AND OUT
06:05:32 OF THAT ALLEY, THAT IS A MAJOR CONCERN OF MINE.
06:05:36 SO I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT RIGHT UP FRONT.
06:05:40 THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.
06:05:41 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYONE ELSE?
06:05:44 MR. DINGFELDER, YOU'RE RECOGNIZED, SIR.
06:05:49 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: MR. CITRO, A GOOD QUESTION AND I AM GLAD
06:05:51 YOU BROUGHT IT UP ABOUT THE ALLEY BECAUSE STAFF, THEY ARE
06:05:54 ASKING FOR A WAIVER FROM OUR CODE REQUIREMENT IN REGARD TO
06:05:58 THE 3 FEET, IS SUPPOSED TO BE, WHAT, 10 FEET JOHN AND SAYS
06:06:03 BACK DOWN TO 3 FEET.
06:06:04 SO MY QUESTION IS, HOW LONG AN ALLEY IS THAT, AND HOW MANY
06:06:09 HOMES -- HOW MANY HOMES ARGUABLY WOULD BE UTILIZING IT, YOU
06:06:16 KNOW, BEFORE THEY GET OUT TO A STREET?
06:06:20 BECAUSE I THINK THERE'S SOME ALLEYS THAT ARE 20 HOUSES LONG
06:06:27 AND MAYBE USED BY BOTH SIDES AND YOU HAVE A LOT OF ALLEY AND
06:06:32 THAT SORT OF THING, BUT IN THIS PARTICULAR NEIGHBORHOOD IT
06:06:35 SEEMS LIKE THEY HAVE A LIMITED NUMBER OF POSSIBLE HOMES THAT
06:06:37 WOULD BE UTILIZING THAT ALLEY.
06:06:41 >>JOHN LAROCCA: BASED ON THE PROPERTY MAP, YOU CAN SEE THAT
06:06:45 THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY THREE, SIX --
06:06:51 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: CAN WE SWITCH TO THE OVERHEAD, PLEASE?
06:06:54 >>JOHN LAROCCA: YES.
06:06:54 THERE ARE 8 HOMES ON THE EAST SIDE NOT ALL USING THE NUMBER
06:06:57 OF ALLEYS AND THE PROPOSED FENCES.
06:06:59 THE WEST SIDE HAS A MIXTURE OF USES, AND NOT EVERYONE, I
06:07:03 DON'T THINK, THERE IS ANY ALLEY USE BACKING UP TO THAT ALLEY
06:07:08 RIGHT NOW.
06:07:09 JOHN, ARE YOU AWARE OF ANY?
06:07:10 >> JUST THE VERY CORNER LOT AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER MUCH
06:07:14 PLAZA AND BOULEVARD.
06:07:15 I GUESS OUR PERSPECTIVE AT THIS POINT IS, OBVIOUSLY JOHN
06:07:19 DIAZ IS A DEVELOPER OF THIS TYPE OF HOME AND HE IS INVOLVED
06:07:25 WITH OTHERS THAT ARE OF THIS CHARACTER WHERE OLDER AREAS
06:07:31 HAVE NARROW ALLEYS AND IT IS A CONCERN OF OURS.
06:07:35 I MEAN, WE ARE WILLING TO SET BACK ANOTHER 10 FEET, GIVING
06:07:38 THE PROPERTY OWNER A BACKYARD, RATHER THAN CREATING ALL
06:07:42 DRIVEWAY SPACE TO THE REAR OF THE PROPERTY.
06:07:44 YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT'S 10 FEET OR WE ADD ANOTHER 5 FEET AND
06:07:48 COME UP WITH A SOLUTION.
06:07:50 I AM NOT A TRAFFIC ENGINEER, I WILL STATE THAT FOR THE
06:07:52 RECORD.
06:07:52 BUT I DO UNDERSTAND THAT WHILE THERE ARE STANDARD CODE
06:07:56 REQUIREMENTS, AND THE WAIVER THAT WE ARE SEEKING ARE BECAUSE
06:07:59 OF INCONSISTENCY WITH OUR NONCOMPLIANCE WITH THOSE
06:08:04 STANDARDS, WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO FIND SOME SOLUTIONS AS WE
06:08:09 DEVELOP THE SITE WITH REGARD TO OTHER ALTERNATIVES TO
06:08:13 PROTECT SAFETY AND VISIBILITY FOR CARS GETTING IN AND OUT.
06:08:17 I THINK IT'S SAVE TO UNDERSTAND PLAYING THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE
06:08:22 AS SOMEONE WHO WOULD BUY A HOME, AND THEY ARE GOING TO BE
06:08:25 STANDARD HOMES, I CAN SEE THE MARKET IS INTERESTED IN
06:08:32 BRINGING IN FAMILIES, 3 BEDROOM, 2 BATH HOMES, IN A MORE
06:08:36 URBAN ENVIRONMENT, AND THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TO GET IN AND
06:08:39 OUT OF THEIR PROPERTY.
06:08:40 ANYBODY UNDERSTANDS THAT.
06:08:41 SO WE ARE TRYING TO DO SOMETHING THAT'S SAFE AND ADD QUALITY
06:08:44 BUT AT THE SAME TIME OFFER SOME GREEN SPACE IN THE REAR
06:08:46 YARD, BASED ON WHERE THESE PROPERTIES ARE LOCATED.
06:08:49 AND WE ARE WILLING TO DO, AND JOHN AGREES TO THIS, WE ARE
06:08:56 WILLING TO LOOK AT ALTERNATIVES, AND I CAN WRITE THAT INTO
06:09:00 ANY PROVISIONS TO THE CONDITIONS TO INDICATE THAT WE WOULD
06:09:04 LOOK AT OPPORTUNITIES INCLUDING GREATER SETBACK TO ACHIEVE
06:09:09 THE BEST POSSIBLE SOLUTION IF THAT WERE TO BE MIXED WITH THE
06:09:12 BACKUP, AS FACTORS THAT WOULD GO INTO DESIGNING THIS TO MEET
06:09:17 AT LEAST A MUCH SAFER AND ACCESSIBLE ENVIRONMENT.
06:09:23 AND THAT'S THE EASIEST WAY I CAN ANSWER THE QUESTION RIGHT
06:09:26 NOW.
06:09:26 WE ARE OPEN TO DOING SOME THINGS RATHER THAN IMMEDIATELY
06:09:29 JUST GIVING UP ALL THE BACKYARD AND PUSH EVERYTHING BACK AND
06:09:32 HAVE ALL PAVEMENT AND DRIVEWAY, UNDERSTANDING THAT THAT'S
06:09:35 IMPORTANT TO BE ABLE TO GET IN AND OUT OF THE GARAGE.
06:09:38 BUT WE WERE LED TO BELIEVE EARLY ON -- AND I AM NOT SPEAKING
06:09:42 FOR JONATHAN, I KNOW YOU ARE ON THIS MEETING, IF YOU WILL
06:09:48 ONLINE, BUT MAYBE YOU CAN ADDRESS THAT.
06:09:50 WE ARE LOOKING AT OTHER WAYS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
06:09:53 I WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO STATE THAT IN THE RECORD SO THAT
06:09:56 WE CAN WORK WITH STAFF AT THE TIME OF PERMITTING.
06:09:59 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: MR. LAROCCA, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:10:03 AS I SEE THIS, THIS PROPERTY IS FACING TO THE WEST.
06:10:10 >>JOHN LAROCCA: THAT'S CORRECT.
06:10:12 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: AND THERE ARE PROBLEMS ON NORTH
06:10:13 BOULEVARD, A HIGHLY TRAVELED ROAD, AND SPEEDS SOMETIMES A
06:10:16 LITTLE HIGHER THAN WE WOULD LIKE, AND IT'S A ROAD THAT'S
06:10:22 USED FOR MANY PURPOSES, ALL THE WAY TO OSBORNE AVENUE, TURNS
06:10:26 AROUND, GOES BACK TO FLORIDA OR ANYWHERE YOU WANT.
06:10:30 SO I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU CAN'T HAVE AND APPRECIATE YOU CAN'T
06:10:33 HAVE NOTHING IN FRONT, HAVE THE PARKING IN THE BACK BECAUSE
06:10:37 IT WOULD BE REALLY CHAOTIC.
06:10:39 SO THE ALLEYWAY, YOU SAID YOUR PROPERTY, THE FIRST UNIT
06:10:43 WOULD BE, I THINK, THREE PROPERTIES DOWN, IF YOU LOOK AT THE
06:10:47 40-FOOT LOT, JUST TAKING A GUESS, AND TO YOUR SOUTH, YOU
06:10:50 HAVE THE LARGER PART OF THE ALLEY.
06:10:53 AM YOU I CORRECT?
06:10:56 >>JOHN LAROCCA: CORRECT.
06:10:57 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: SO I DON'T KNOW IF THERE ARE SOME THINGS
06:10:59 YOU CAN DO.
06:11:00 I AM NOT SUGGESTING IT.
06:11:01 BUT EVEN IN THIS GARAGE WHEN YOU LEAVE OUR CITY PARKING,
06:11:09 29.95 MIRROR THERE FROM KMART AND IT LOOKED REAL WELL.
06:11:14 YOU CAN SEE WHAT'S COMING ON THE LEFT SIDE, BUT YOU HAVE A
06:11:17 BLIND SPOT WHEN YOU COME OUT, YOU DON'T KNOW IF SOMEBODY IS
06:11:20 A BABY WITH A STROLLER OR SOMEBODY ON ONE OF THE MOPEDS AND
06:11:25 IT CREATES A LOT OF PROBLEMS.
06:11:27 SO I WOULD SUGGEST SOMETHING THAT YOU COULD SEE BOTH SIDES
06:11:30 OF THE ALLEY IN THE BACK, COULD BE SOME OF YOUR SOLUTION.
06:11:33 I APPRECIATE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING, IF THIS GOES
06:11:37 FORWARD, THAT YOU MAKE THOSE CONCESSIONS, MAKE SOME --
06:11:42 >>JOHN LAROCCA: AND I WILL STATE FOR THE RECORD, MR.
06:11:44 MIRANDA, IN REGARD TO YOUR COMMENTS, THAT THERE IS
06:11:47 REFERENCE, IN PART OF THE REVISIONS BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
06:11:52 READING, WE NEED TO MOVE THAT LANGUAGE AROUND.
06:11:54 BUT RIGHT NOW WE HAVE IN THE PLAN A STATEMENT THAT SAYS AT
06:11:57 THE TIME OF PERMITTING THE APPLICANT WILL PRESENT EVIDENCE
06:12:00 TO A SURE BACKUP VISIBILITY TO ACCEPTABLE MEANS AND METHODS
06:12:03 SUCH AS SAFETY AS ONE EXAMPLE.
06:12:06 I WEPT FURTHER AND I AM WILLING TO GO FURTHER TO SAY WE WANT
06:12:09 TO LOOK AT ANY AND ALL METHODS TO DO THAT.
06:12:12 WE ARE MAKING ASSUMPTIONS THAT THE ALLEY CONTINUES TO BE
06:12:15 UTILIZED WHETHER THIS BECOMES THE FIRST ONE WITH REGULAR
06:12:17 USE, CAUSING REGULAR USE OF THIS SITUATION, AND OTHERS THAT
06:12:22 ARE BEING DEVELOPED IN THE AREA MAY BE OPEN UP.
06:12:25 I UNDERSTAND SOME UNDER CURRENT STANDARD INDIVIDUAL LOT ON
06:12:29 THE STREET BEHIND US ON WOODROW, I BELIEVE ASSOCIATION NEW
06:12:33 CONSTRUCTION THAT'S GOING THROUGH THE NORMAL PERMITTING
06:12:35 PROCESS, AND THEY MAY WANT TO HAVE ACCESS. I DON'T KNOW
06:12:39 WHAT THEY DESIGNED BUT THEY ARE NOT OWN AN ARTERIAL.
06:12:41 WE RECOGNIZE THE ALLEY WILL HAVE TO BE IMPROVED AND PUTTING
06:12:44 MIRRORS AND COMING UP WITH A VARIETY OF SOLUTIONS.
06:12:46 WE ARE WILLING TO DO THAT AND PARTICIPANT, AND I WILL WITH
06:12:49 THE STAFF'S ADVICE AND COORDINATION, I WILL MAKE SURE I ADD
06:12:52 THAT TO ANYTHING ON THE NOTATIONS AND EDITS BETWEEN FIRST
06:12:56 AND SECOND READING.
06:12:57 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: AND SOME OF THOSE HOUSES THAT ARE THERE
06:13:00 NOW ARE PUSHED BACK, AND THERE MAY BE INGRESS AND EGRESS ON
06:13:04 NORTH BOULEVARD.
06:13:05 I'M NOT SURE.
06:13:08 >>JOHN LAROCCA: CORRECT.
06:13:10 >>JOSEPH CITRO: DO WE HAVE SOMEONE FROM TRANSPORTATION?
06:13:15 >>ANNIE BARNES: DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
06:13:19 I BELIEVE JONATHAN SCOTT IS ON THE LINE AS WELL.
06:13:24 >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU, MR. SCOTT.
06:13:25 CAN YOU GIVE ME THE REASON WHY TRANSPORTATION FOUND THIS
06:13:28 INCONSISTENT?
06:13:35 >>JONATHAN SCOTT: FROM THE GARAGE THAT YOU ALL WERE TALKING
06:13:38 ABOUT, A TIGHT BACKUP THERE FOR VEHICLES TO BACK OUT SAFELY.
06:13:44 IT'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFICULT.
06:13:46 IF YOU HAVE A 150 OR SOMETHING, AND THAT CAR HAS A 24-FOOT
06:13:50 TURNING RADIUS, I UNDERSTAND A SMALLER CAR.
06:13:54 THAT WAS THE CONCERN.
06:13:58 LIKE THE APPLICANT WAS TALKING ABOUT, THERE ARE THINGS THAT
06:14:00 YOU CAN DO TO MAKE IT EASIER TO BACK UP.
06:14:02 BUT WE HAD RECOMMENDED TO PUSH IT BACK TEN FEET.
06:14:09 >>JOSEPH CITRO: SO MR. SCOTT, IT WAS A COMBINATION OF ALLEY
06:14:12 SIZE AND THAT APRON SIZE OF THE DRIVEWAY INTO THE GARAGE?
06:14:20 >>JONATHAN SCOTT: YES.
06:14:20 YOU CAN USE THE FULL WIDTH OF THE ALLEY AS A BACKUP, A
06:14:24 24-FOOT BACKUP, TEN FOOT.
06:14:29 THEY ARE ASKING FOR A WAIVER FROM 24 TO 13 FEET WHICH IS
06:14:33 ULTIMATELY A TIGHT BACKUP.
06:14:35 THAT'S WHAT OUR ULTIMATE CONCERN WAS.
06:14:38 >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.
06:14:39 IF I CAN GO BACK TO THE APPLICANT, PLEASE.
06:14:44 YOU KNOW, I DON'T REDESIGN FROM THE DAIS, BUT I AM JUST
06:14:51 LETTING YOU KNOW NOW THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN OF MINE, AND AS
06:14:57 THE COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE THAT YOU ARE PRESENTING
06:14:59 RIGHT NOW, I CAN'T VOTE YES FOR THIS.
06:15:04 IF SOMETHING CHANGES BETWEEN NOW AND SECOND READING, IF IT
06:15:08 DOES PASS, THEN I WILL LOOK AT IT FURTHER.
06:15:12 I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND.
06:15:13 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR.
06:15:17 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: SO I THINK WE SORT OF HAVE CONFLICTING
06:15:23 ISSUES HERE.
06:15:25 MR. LAROCCA, ON THE ONE HAND, I WOULD HOPE THAT WE ALL SEE
06:15:31 THE VALUE OF REAR LOADED GARAGES ON THE ALLEY.
06:15:37 THAT'S WHAT THE ALLEYS ARE THERE FOR.
06:15:40 ORIGINALLY IT WAS FOR SERVICE ALLEYS, AND ISN'T IT WONDERFUL
06:15:44 NOT TO HAVE A BIG DOUBLE CAR GARAGE ON THE FRONT OF THIS
06:15:49 HOUSE?
06:15:51 THESE HOUSES ARE GOING TO BE LOVELY FACING BOULEVARD WITHOUT
06:15:55 BIG DOUBLE GARAGES.
06:15:58 ON THE FLIP SIDE, MR. CITRO ARTICULATED VERY WELL, THERE
06:16:02 MIGHT BE SOME SAFETY CONCERNS.
06:16:04 AND I THINK WHAT I HEARD YOU SAY, JOHN LAROCCA, WAS THAT YOU
06:16:08 ALL MIGHT BE AMENABLE TO A COMPROMISE, AND DO WANT TO
06:16:12 PROVIDE AS LARGE A BACKYARD AS POSSIBLE, AND I SAW THAT WITH
06:16:18 A POSSIBLE SWIMMING POOL.
06:16:20 SO WITH THAT SAID, WOULD YOU BE AMENABLE AS A COMPROMISE
06:16:25 INSTEAD OF 3 FEET TO 5 FEET?
06:16:30 A REQUIREMENT 10 FEET, AND IF WE SPLIT THE BABY, THAT'S 5
06:16:33 FEET.
06:16:34 AND I THINK IF I LIVED IN THAT SITUATION AND I WANTED TO
06:16:40 PARK IN THAT GARAGE I WOULD BACK IN EVERY TIME.
06:16:42 AND I KNOW WE CAN'T REQUIRE THAT AS A CONDITION, BUT I THINK
06:16:46 THAT'S A REALITY, AND I HAVE SEEN THAT IN HYDE PARK WHERE
06:16:49 PEOPLE BACK INTO THESE KIND OF GARAGES, AND THAT WAY WHEN
06:16:52 THEY COME OUT THEY ARE COMING OUT FORWARD, AND THEY HAVE A
06:16:54 LOT BETTER VISIBILITY.
06:16:56 SO I THINK THERE ARE SOME PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS.
06:16:59 BUT PUTTING THAT ASIDE, WE CAN'T PUT THAT ON THE SITE PLAN
06:17:02 OBVIOUSLY, BUT WOULD YOU BE AMENABLE TO APPLY --
06:17:07 >>JOHN LAROCCA: I HAVE JUST SPOKEN WITH MR. DIAZ AND WE HAVE
06:17:10 TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE WE MADE OUR PRESENTATION THIS
06:17:12 EVENING, AND AGAIN I KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT THE PD ZONING, I KNOW
06:17:16 WE NEED TO BE AS SPECIFIC AS WE CAN.
06:17:20 I BELIEVE WE ARE WILLING TO ACCEPT GOING FROM A WAIVER FROM
06:17:28 3 TO THE 5 FEET.
06:17:30 WE STILL WANT THE OPPORTUNITY, OBVIOUSLY, TO LOOK AT OTHER
06:17:35 WAYS TO EVEN MAKE THE ACCESSIBILITY OF THOSE GARAGES AND
06:17:39 THAT ALLEY WORK AND SATISFY THE TRANSPORTATION REVIEWERS FOR
06:17:44 COMPATIBILITY.
06:17:47 BUT, YES, WE WILL AGREE --
06:17:48 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: IF YOU AGREE TO THE 5 FEET TONIGHT, THEN
06:17:52 THAT WOULD BE HOPEFULLY HOW WE ALL MOVE FORWARD BUT YOU ARE
06:17:58 BOUND BY THAT.
06:17:58 ANYTHING OVER AND ABOVE IN TERMS OF MIRRORS OR WHAT HAVE
06:18:04 YOU, YOU KNOW, THAT'S ALL FINE AND GOOD.
06:18:06 SO 5 FEET --
06:18:10 >>JOHN LAROCCA: TO YOUR QUESTION, MR. DINGFELDER AND MR.
06:18:12 CITRO, ON YOUR QUESTION, WE CERTAINLY AGREE TO THAT AND WE
06:18:15 ARE WILLING IN THE REVISION SHEET AND REVISIONS TO THE PLAN
06:18:17 BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING TO MAKE THAT CHANGE TO SHOW
06:18:20 A SETBACK OFF THAT ALLEY TO 5 FEET INSTEAD OF 3.
06:18:25 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
06:18:28 THEN MR. MIRANDA.
06:18:29 >>MARTIN SHELBY: IF YOU WOULD INQUIRE OF THE STAFF AND MS.
06:18:34 BARNES TO THAT CHANGE, AND IF IT'S GOING TO BE POSSIBLE
06:18:38 BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND RING TO BE SEE IF IT CAN BE DONE
06:18:41 LOGISTICALLY.
06:18:43 >>ANNIE BARNES: DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
06:18:44 SO THE FIRST REQUEST WOULD ALLOW REDUCTION IN AISLE WIDTH
06:18:51 FROM 24 FEET TO 11 FEET, AND THE SECOND WAIVER WOULD BE TO
06:18:57 ALLOW REDUCTION IN THE LOCATION STRUCTURAL EDGE OF THE
06:19:02 VEHICULAR ENTRANCE OF A 2 CAR SET BACK OF 2 FEET TO 5 FEET.
06:19:08 BUT I WOULD LIKE JONATHAN SCOTT WITH TRANSPORTATION TO
06:19:12 CONFIRM AS WELL.
06:19:13 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: WE HAVEN'T REALLY HAD DISCUSSION ABOUT
06:19:19 THE 24 FEET AND THE 11 FEET.
06:19:21 I DON'T REALLY KNOW IF I EVEN UNDERSTAND HOW THAT COMES INTO
06:19:24 PLAY.
06:19:28 >>JONATHAN SCOTT: YES.
06:19:29 SO 10 FEET FROM THE ALLEY.
06:19:32 THEN IF YOU ADD THE 5 TO THE PROPERTY LINE ENTRANCE, THAT'S
06:19:38 15 FEET.
06:19:39 THAT WOULD BE FROM 24 TO 15 WOULD BE A NEW WAIVER.
06:19:47 THE STRUCTURAL EDGE, SPECIFICALLY 10 FEET, SO IT WOULD BE
06:19:54 GOING FROM 10 FEET TO 5 FEET, THOSE WOULD BE THE TWO
06:20:00 MODIFICATIONS, JUST TO CONFIRM ANNIE IS RIGHT.
06:20:04 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: IF I COULD, TO WRAP THAT UP, BY SLIDING
06:20:08 THE GARAGE BACK AN ADDITIONAL TWO FEET INSTEAD WHEREOF THE
06:20:14 GARAGE IS TODAY, THEN THE NEW WAIVER REQUEST WOULD BE FROM
06:20:18 24 FEET TO 15 FEET AND FROM 10 FEET TO 5 FEET.
06:20:26 MR. JONATHAN SCOTT IS NODDING YES FOR THE RECORD.
06:20:31 >>JONATHAN SCOTT: THAT'S CORRECT.
06:20:34 THAT IS CORRECT.
06:20:36 >>JOHN LAROCCA: AND THE APPLICANT CONCURS WITH THAT, AND WE
06:20:39 ARE ASSUMING, WE ARE IN AGREEMENT HERE THAT THAT CHANGE
06:20:42 COULD BE MADE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
06:20:44 WE WILL MAKE THAT CHANGE.
06:20:45 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. MIRANDA.
06:20:46 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: MR. LAROCCA, MR. DIAZ, JUST THINKING TO
06:20:50 THE FUTURE.
06:20:50 IF THIS WAS 2031, YOUR CAR WOULD TELL YOU ANYWAY YOU WANT TO
06:20:57 BE AS YOU ARE BACKING UP SIDEWAYS, UP OR DOWN, YOU SEE THE
06:21:01 WHOLE THING.
06:21:01 SO I AM JUST THINKING -- I AM NOT SAYING APPLICABLE TO THIS
06:21:06 PETITION BUT I WOULD THINK WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF ALL THESE
06:21:10 ELECTRIC -- YOU WON'T NEED THAT FOR THE CARS BECAUSE THEY
06:21:18 TELL YOU EVERYTHING.
06:21:20 UNFORTUNATELY I PARK BECAUSE I HAVE GOT A BAD BATTERY.
06:21:23 THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:21:23 I JUST THOUGHT ABOUT THAT AND WANTED TO SHARE THAT COMMENT
06:21:27 WITH YOU.
06:21:27 >>ORLANDO GUDES: I HAVEN'T SPOKEN YET.
06:21:30 MY CONCERN WITH THE SETBACK OF THE ALLEY, MY BIGGEST CONCERN
06:21:35 WAS THE AREA, THE HEIGHT OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT, THE
06:21:44 DIFFERENT LOOK ON THE PORCHES, AND THE PATTERN OF THE
06:21:50 NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:21:51 I KNOW THAT AREA VERY, VERY WELL.
06:21:53 AND THERE'S NOT TOO MANY TWO-STORY BUILDINGS IN THAT STRETCH
06:21:57 RIGHT THERE.
06:21:59 SO THAT'S A CONCERN OF MINE.
06:22:00 AND THAT'S WHY I'M LOOKING AT THE PHOTOGRAPH OF THAT LOT,
06:22:05 WHEN I LOOK AT THAT LOT, I LOOK AT THE HOUSES THAT'S
06:22:07 ADJACENT TO IT.
06:22:10 AND I WOULD SEE IF STAFF CAN PUT THAT UP SO COUNCIL CAN SEE
06:22:15 WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.
06:22:16 >>ANNIE BARNES: DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
06:22:19 CAN I PLEASE SHARE MY SCREEN?
06:22:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, YOU CAN.
06:22:22 >>ANNIE BARNES: THANK YOU.
06:22:25 ALSO, WHIM I AM SHOWING MY SCREEN I WANT TO LET YOU KNOW
06:22:31 THAT IF ANY MODIFICATIONS ARE MADE TO THE WAIVERS, THEY CAN
06:22:34 BE DONE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
06:22:44 CAN YOU SEE MY SCREEN?
06:22:45 >>ORLANDO GUDES: I CAN SEE IT.
06:22:47 AND I AM JUST LOOKING AT THAT LOT.
06:22:49 AND THAT'S A RESIDENTIAL AREA.
06:22:53 THOSE ARE ALL SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES.
06:22:55 AND MY CONCERN IS THE ELEVATION OF TWO NEW BUILDINGS IN THAT
06:23:03 SPACE OVERLOOKING THOSE HOUSES.
06:23:09 THAT CONCERNS ME.
06:23:10 I HAVE GOT TO BE FRANK WITH YOU.
06:23:12 I'M CONCERNED.
06:23:13 AND WE STILL HAVE TO BE MINDFUL OF THE COMMUNITY.
06:23:21 SO THAT BOTHERS ME AT THIS POINT.
06:23:24 I JUST WANT TO MAKE REFERENCE TO THAT.
06:23:29 THAT JUST BOTHERS ME.
06:23:31 ANYONE ELSE?
06:23:37 >>CATE WELLS: CHIEF ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY FOR THE RECORD.
06:23:39 THERE'S BEEN SOME DISCUSSION THIS EVENING WITH REGARD TO
06:23:42 PORCHES.
06:23:47 THIS PROPERTY IS NOT LOCATED WITHIN AN OVERLAY DISTRICT OR
06:23:50 WITHIN ONE OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICTS.
06:23:53 SO TYPICALLY THE DESIGN ELEMENTS ARE NOT BEFORE COUNCIL OR
06:23:58 WOULD PROVIDE A BASIS FOR DENIAL OF THE APPLICATION.
06:24:02 THAT BEING SAID, THE ISSUE IS NOT, MR. CHAIRMAN, WHICH YOU
06:24:06 JUST BROUGHT UP, THAT IS A COMPONENT THAT WOULD PROPERLY BE
06:24:12 BEFORE COUNCIL FOR CONSIDERATION.
06:24:15 I BELIEVE THAT STAFF -- THEIR CONCERN IS ASKING IN THE STAFF
06:24:20 REPORT, BUT I JUST WANTED TO CAUTION COUNCIL MEMBERS, AS YOU
06:24:26 DELIBERATE, PLEASE NOT FOCUS ON DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS.
06:24:31 THANK YOU.
06:24:31 >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, MS. WELLS.
06:24:35 ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
06:24:38 ALL RIGHT.
06:24:39 NO QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT.
06:24:40 DO WE HAVE ANYBODY ON THE SECOND FLOOR TO SPEAK ON THIS
06:24:42 ITEM?
06:24:50 >>AILEEN ROSARIO: DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH MANAGEMENT.
06:24:51 THERE IS NO ONE HERE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM.
06:24:54 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYONE REGISTERED TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?
06:24:57 >> NO REGISTERED SPEAKERS FOR THIS ITEM.
06:24:59 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT.
06:25:00 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: BEFORE YOU CLOSE, MR. CHAIRMAN.
06:25:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
06:25:06 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: AND YOU WILL GET THE LAST WORD, MR.
06:25:09 LAROCCA. BUT BEFORE YOU CLOSE, I THINK YOUR COMMENTS ARE
06:25:12 WELL STATED.
06:25:13 YOU AND I BOTH DRIVE UP AND DOWN THAT NORTH BOULEVARD A LOT,
06:25:18 I'M SURE, AND I WOULD AGREE WE HAVE TRADITIONAL HOMES ALONG
06:25:24 NORTH BOULEVARD.
06:25:26 I WILL NOTE THERE'S A LOT OF PRETTY BIG AND TALL TOWNHOMES
06:25:29 TO THE SOUTH, TOWARD COLUMBUS, MORE AND MORE.
06:25:34 I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THE FUTURE HOLD FOR THIS
06:25:37 PARTICULAR BLOCK IN TERMS OF THAT SORT OF THING.
06:25:42 I DO HAVE A QUESTION AND IT'S ALMOST A RHETORICAL QUESTION,
06:25:46 BUT I BELIEVE THAT THESE TWO SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES ARE 35 FEET
06:25:52 OR LESS IN HEIGHT, PERIOD, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT OUR CODE
06:25:58 REQUIRES.
06:25:59 YOU ARE NOT ASKING FOR ANY HEIGHT WAIVERS.
06:26:07 >>JOHN LAROCCA: CORRECT.
06:26:07 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: SO I THINK PART OF WHAT WE ARE SEEING,
06:26:12 MR. CHAIRMAN, IS THAT MODERN LOOK.
06:26:15 AND THAT'S DIFFERENT, AND MS. WELLS I THINK IS SORT OF
06:26:23 WARNING US A LITTLE BIT.
06:26:24 I THINK WHAT CATE SAID WAS WE ARE COULD ADDRESS MASS AND
06:26:27 SCALE, SIZE, BUT BE CAREFUL NOT TO HAVE LOOK AT DESIGN OF
06:26:33 FRONT PORCHES, AND I APPRECIATE THAT CAUTIONARY STATEMENT.
06:26:38 SO I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT TO EVERYBODY, THIS IS 35 FEET.
06:26:43 IT'S LIKE PRETTY MUCH EVERY OTHER NEW HOUSE IN THE CITY.
06:26:46 >>ANNIE BARNES: DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
06:26:51 THE DIFFERENCE THOUGH IS THIS IS A 40-FOOT WIDE LOT AND
06:26:55 STANDARD EUCLIDEAN ZONING DISTRICT DON'T ALLOW 40-FOOT WIDE
06:26:59 LOTS.
06:27:00 AND YOU ARE CORRECT, IN RS-50, RS-60, THE MAX HIGHLIGHT
06:27:03 WOULD BE 35 FEET.
06:27:04 >>MARTIN SHELBY: CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY.
06:27:09 IF I COULD JUST ASK STAFF TO QUALIFY, WITH REGARD TO, LET'S
06:27:12 SAY, A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, SETBACKS AND HEIGHT ARE NOT
06:27:18 CONSIDERED WAIVERS.
06:27:19 IS THAT CORRECT?
06:27:20 BECAUSE IT'S NOT SITE CONTROLLED?
06:27:23 >>ANNIE BARNES: THAT IS CORRECT.
06:27:25 >>MARTIN SHELBY: SO A SITE PLAN DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN A
06:27:28 SPECIFIC HEIGHT WAIVER, IT JUST SETS FORTH WHAT THE HEIGHT
06:27:31 OF THAT PROJECT IS, CORRECT?
06:27:34 >>ANNIE BARNES: THAT IS CORRECT.
06:27:36 >>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU.
06:27:36 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT.
06:27:39 NO OTHER FOLKS TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM.
06:27:42 NOBODY REGISTERED TO SPEAK.
06:27:43 MR. LAROCCA, ANY FINAL COMMENTS?
06:27:47 >>JOHN LAROCCA: AGAIN, CHAIRMAN GUDES, I UNDERSTAND AND
06:27:49 RESPECT YOUR CONCERN, AND YOU KNOW THAT NEIGHBORHOOD VERY
06:27:52 WELL.
06:27:53 WITH REGARD TO THE HEIGHT AND THE MASSING AND ANNIE IS
06:27:58 CORRECT ALSO THAT THESE ARE 40-FOOT LOTS.
06:28:00 BUT THE REALITY OF IT IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THESE STRUCTURES
06:28:03 ARE 31 FEET, THEY DON'T EXCEED 35 IN HEIGHT, AS ONE OF THE
06:28:08 ISSUES, AND IF YOU LOOK AT THEM AS INDIVIDUAL LOTS, YES,
06:28:13 THEY ARE TYPICALLY SMALLER OR NARROWER THAN THE STANDARD
06:28:17 LOTS, BUT THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDINGS ARE LESS THAN 35 FEET,
06:28:21 WHICH IS THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED BY RIGHT, AND THE SETBACKS OF
06:28:26 EACH OF THOSE LOTS ON THE SIDE, WHICH ARE SIDE YARD
06:28:31 SETBACKS, THE STRUCTURES OF THAT HEIGHT ARE 7 FEET THAT MEET
06:28:34 THE STANDARD CODE REQUIREMENT.
06:28:38 SO JOHN?
06:28:41 >> AND MR. ORLANDO, WHAT MADE ME REALIZE WE CAN BUILD
06:28:50 SOMETHING LIKE THIS IN THE AREA IS BECAUSE I BUILT A HOUSE
06:28:52 ON A 40 FOOT LOT RIGHT OFF OF FRANCIS STREET, AND THAT'S
06:28:56 KIND OF WHERE WE RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S POSSIBLE TO DO THIS,
06:29:00 AND STILL HAVE THE HOUSE TIE IN WITH THE AREA.
06:29:07 >>JOHN LAROCCA: MY COMMENT JUST TO CONCLUDE, I BELIEVE WE
06:29:10 HAVE HAD A VIGOROUS DISCUSSION THIS NIGHT ON THE ISSUES
06:29:14 REGARDING THE HEIGHT AND MASSING.
06:29:16 I BELIEVE THE CHARACTER, NEW DEVELOPMENT IS ALWAYS A CHANGE.
06:29:23 40, 45, 50-FOOT LOTS, THIS KIND OF DEVELOPMENT IS NEW TO THE
06:29:27 AREA.
06:29:27 A LOT OF, YES, OFFICES AND OTHER HOMES ARE NOT TWO-STORY BUT
06:29:32 THERE'S A LOT OF NEW TWO-STORY HOMES THAT GOING UP IN THE
06:29:35 AREA.
06:29:36 AND THIS, IN MY OPINION ON AN ARTERIAL ROAD, WILL NOT BE OUT
06:29:41 OF CHARACTER AND THAT'S THE POINTED I MADE EARLIER.
06:29:43 THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:29:44 WE RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL, AND
06:29:48 AGAIN THE ONE NOTE IS WE AGREE IN ADDITION TO THE WAIVER
06:29:52 SHEET ON PAGE 6, WE AGREE TO THE WAIVERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE
06:29:56 SETBACKS FROM THE ALLEY AS STATED DURING THIS MEETING.
06:30:02 THANK YOU.
06:30:03 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. MANISCALCO MOVES TO CLOSE, SECOND BY
06:30:08 MR. MIRANDA.
06:30:09 ALL IN FAVOR?

06:40:37 CHARITIES, THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING SO I IMAGINE IT'S PROBABLY
06:40:40 THE CURRENT -- PERHAPS THE CURRENT PROPERTY OWNER, AND SHE
06:40:48 CAN EXPLAIN THAT TO US.
06:40:50 ARE THERE ANY SPECIAL CONDITIONS OR AGREEMENTS ASSOCIATED
06:40:53 WITH THIS PROPERTY AS BEING AFFORDABLE HOUSING?
06:40:57 >>ZAIN HUSAIN: DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
06:41:01 WE CAN DO COUNCIL CONDITIONS, FOUR CONDITIONS, IN FACT.

06:41:09 THE DICTATION OF AFFORDABILITY FOR 30 YEARS.

06:41:33 AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT, SO IF THE APPLICANT CAN
06:41:36 ADDRESS THOSE DETAILS THAT ZAIN HAS HIGHLIGHTED, AND THOSE
06:41:41 ARE CONDITIONS THAT CAN BE ADDED TO THE SITE PLAN BETWEEN
06:41:44 FIRST AND SECOND READING.
06:41:46 AND THEN OF COURSE THE RESTRICTIVE COVENANT IS AGREED TO,
06:41:50 RECORDED.
06:41:54 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I KNOW WE ARE ONLY SUPPOSED TO STAY
06:41:57 WITHIN THE LIMITS OF THIS PROJECT, BUT IN REGARD TO A RECENT
06:42:01 AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT THAT COUNCIL SAW, THERE WAS A
06:42:04 WHOLE AGREEMENT, SIDE AGREEMENT, AND I THINK IT EVEN
06:42:11 ADDRESSED INSPECTIONS, ENFORCEABILITY, YOU KNOW, THAT SORT
06:42:16 OF THING.
06:42:16 IS THERE A REASON WE WOULDN'T BE DOING THAT OR PROPOSING
06:42:19 THAT HERE?
06:42:22 >>CATE WELLS: IN THAT SITUATION, THEY WERE ASKING FOR AN
06:42:24 INCREASE IN DENSITY FROM 30 TO 35 DWELLING UNITS TO THE
06:42:28 ANGER.
06:42:29 IN SECTION 27-140 OF OUR CODE, THERE WERE REQUIRED TO ENTER
06:42:35 INTO A BONUS PROVISION AGREEMENT AND THAT IS LANGUAGE THAT
06:42:37 THEY WORKED OUT.
06:42:41 THIS COULD BE IMPLEMENTED.
06:42:42 AND THAT AGREEMENT WILL COME BEFORE COUNCIL NEXT WEEK WHEN
06:42:45 YOU CONSIDER ASKING [~AUDIO DISTORTION~] AND WE CAN LOOK AT
06:42:51 WHAT TYPE OF LANGUAGE WOULD NEED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE
06:42:55 RESTRICTIVE COVENANT TO ENSURE THAT THE PROGRAM WOULD BE
06:42:59 OPERATED IN A SIMILAR FASHION, AND WITH COORDINATION WITH
06:43:03 OUR HOUSING AND COMMUNITY.

06:43:47 ONCE AGAIN, ONCE AGAIN --
06:43:49 >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR.

06:44:21 TOTAL LAND IS 0.574 ACRES WITH A FUTURE LAND USE OF CMU-35.
06:44:28 IT IS LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEASTERN CORNER OF THE INTERSECTION

06:44:34 THE PARCELS ARE IN THE SULPHUR SPRINGS NEIGHBORHOOD AND
06:44:37 WATER AND SEWER ARE PROVIDED BY THE CITY.
06:44:39 CURRENTLY THE PARCELS ARE OWNED BY CATHOLIC CHARITIES AND
06:44:42 ARE AS FOLLOWS:
06:44:44 099143 ZONE EG, 0.11 ACRES, CURRENTLY A VACANT COMMERCIAL
06:44:55 PARCEL.
06:44:56 099144 IS ZONED RS-50.
06:44:58 THE PARCEL IS 0.12 ACRES AND IS CURRENTLY A VACANT
06:45:02 RESIDENTIAL PARCEL.
06:45:03 099148 IS ZONED CG, THE PARCEL HAS TWO EXISTING BUILDINGS,
06:45:10 ONE FOR AN OFFICE USE AND THE OTHER FOR A WAREHOUSE AND
06:45:14 STORAGE USE.
06:45:15 THE EXISTING STRUCTURE FRONTING NORTH DIXON AVENUE WILL BE
06:45:18 CONVERTED INTO TEN UNITS.
06:45:21 THE EXISTING WAREHOUSE AND STORAGE WILL BE DEMOLISHED AND
06:45:25 USE 3600 SQUARE FEET TWO-STORY BUILDING WILL BE BUILT TO
06:45:30 PROVIDE ONE ON THE FIRST FLOOR AND 127 EFFICIENCY UNIT ON
06:45:35 THE SECOND FLOOR.
06:45:36 THEREFORE THE APPLICANT IS SEEKING TO REZONE THE PROPERTY TO
06:45:39 PD FROM 28 AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS FOR 44 INDIVIDUAL.
06:45:44 A LITTLE BIT ABOUT CATHOLIC CHARITIES.
06:45:47 IT IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION.
06:45:49 THE ORGANIZATION WAS FOUNDED MORE THAN A CENTURY AGO BY MEN
06:45:53 AND WOMEN WHO BELIEVE THE COLLECTIVE EFFORTS OF THE CHURCH
06:45:56 CAN FAITHFULLY SERVE PEOPLE IN NEED TO CHANGE THE POLICY OF
06:45:59 POVERTY IN OUR NATION.
06:46:01 CATHOLIC CHARITIES HELPS PEOPLE REGARDLESS OF THEIR FAITH
06:46:04 WHO ARE STRUGGLING WITH POVERTY AND OVERCOME BY OTHER
06:46:09 COMPLEX ISSUES.
06:46:10 CATHOLIC CHARITIES MAKES PROGRESS TOWARDS PROVIDING HELP AND
06:46:14 HOPE TO INDIVIDUALS IN THE COMMUNITY AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY
06:46:18 AND RECOGNIZE THE GROWING NEED TO PROVIDE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
06:46:20 FOR INDIVIDUALS IN THE WORKFORCE.
06:46:23 THIS PATH IS SO IMPORTANT FOR OUR COMMUNITY BECAUSE IT
06:46:25 PROVIDES A BASIC NEED WHICH IS HOUSING.
06:46:27 A ROOF OVER THESE INDIVIDUALS' HEADS AND SAFE PLACE TO LAY
06:46:31 THEIR HEADS DOWN ALTERNATE WITHOUT THE FEAR OF GETTING
06:46:33 KICKED OUT.
06:46:35 AS STATED 28 MULTIFAMILY UNITS ARE WELL BELOW THE LEVEL
06:46:39 F.A.R.
06:46:40 IN ADDITION, APPLICANT IS ALSO REQUESTING FOUR WAIVERS WHICH
06:46:44 MR. HUSAIN STATED.
06:46:46 WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE STAFF, THE TRANSPORTATION STAFF FINDS
06:46:49 THE REDUCTION OF PARKING SPACES FROM 35 TO 24 AS EXCESSIVE.
06:46:55 HOWEVER, I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT AN OVERWHELMING
06:46:59 MAJORITY OF THESE INDIVIDUALS WHO WILL BE OCCUPYING THESE
06:47:02 UNITS DO NOT OWN VEHICLES SINCE THEY CANNOT AFFORD IT.
06:47:05 THE FUTURE OCCUPANTS WILL USE PUBLIC TRANSIT.
06:47:09 AS STATED THERE IS A NEW STATION APPROXIMATELY 366 FEET
06:47:13 NORTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
06:47:15 IF I COULD SHARE MY SCREEN.
06:47:27 IS IT POSSIBLE TO SHARE MY SCREEN?
06:47:33 IS MY SCREEN ON?
06:47:34 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MADAM CLERK?
06:47:36 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: JUST EXPAND IT OUT.
06:47:41 ONE MORE TIME.
06:47:50 TU-MAI: CAN YOU SEE IT?
06:48:00 >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE CAN SEE IT.
06:48:01 >> AS STATED THERE'S A NEW CONTRACT FOR A STATION DIRECTLY
06:48:07 ACROSS THE STREET FROM OUR SUBJECT SITE.
06:48:09 THERE ARE ALSO FOUR ADDITIONAL SPOTS LOCATED WEST OF THE
06:48:13 SUBJECT SITE.
06:48:14 AS PLANNING COMMISSION STATED, IT IS WITHIN A QUARTER MILE
06:48:19 TRANSIT STATION TO THE WEST OF THE SITE AT THE INTERSECTION
06:48:21 OF NORTH FLORIDA AVENUE AND YUKON STREET.
06:48:24 THIS TRANSIT STOP IS SERVED BY HART ROUTE NUMBER 1
06:48:29 CONNECTING TO THE SUBJECT SITE IN DOWNTOWN TAMPA, IN
06:48:34 ADDITION TRANSIT STOP SERVED HART ROUTE 14 AND 16.
06:48:40 LASTLY, THIS PROJECT WE BELIEVE SUPPORTS THE GOALS,
06:48:42 OBJECTIVES, THE POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
06:48:46 IT WOULD PROVIDE MORE RESIDENTIAL HOUSING CHOICES FOR FUTURE
06:48:50 POPULATION GROWTH WHILE ALSO CREATING ADDITIONAL HOUSING
06:48:53 OPPORTUNITIES CONSISTENT WITH THE FORM STRATEGY.
06:48:59 IT IS LOCATED WITHIN PROXIMITY TO EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
06:49:02 SUCH AS HOME DEPOT, WALMART, FLORIDA LAND, OFFICE CENTER AND
06:49:07 AMENITIES SUCH AS CHENEY PARK A HALF MILE EAST OF THE
06:49:12 SUBJECT SITE AND EAST OF THE PARK.
06:49:15 SO THERE ARE ALSO MANY EMPLOYMENT CENTERS TO THE EAST ALONG
06:49:21 EAST BUSCH BOULEVARD SUCH AS BUSCH GARDENS, 2.9 MILES, AND
06:49:25 ADVENTURE ISLAND WHICH IS 3.5 MILES AWAY.
06:49:28 TO CONCLUDE, WE CONCUR WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION FINDINGS
06:49:33 OF CONSISTENT AS THE CITY USES LAND USES EFFICIENTLY AND
06:49:37 PURSUES A DEVELOPMENT PATTERN THAT IS ECONOMICALLY SOUND AS
06:49:40 WELL AS MAXIMIZES UNDERUTILIZED AND VACANT SITE.
06:49:44 WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE THIS
06:49:46 ZONING BASED ON ALL THE CONSIDERATIONS AS PRESENTED TO YOU
06:49:49 TONIGHT.
06:49:50 THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION.
06:49:51 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
06:49:58 ALL RIGHT.
06:49:58 NO QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT.
06:49:59 ANYONE HERE ON THE SECOND FLOOR TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?
06:50:03 I'M SORRY, DID YOU PUT YOUR HAND UP?
06:50:06 >>CATE WELLS: THANK YOU. COUNCIL RAISED THE ISSUE OF
06:50:10 AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND THE APPLICANT HAS INDICATED THE UNITS
06:50:17 WILL BE USED FOR WORKFORCE UNITS.
06:50:20 IN THE EVENT THAT IT RECEIVES FAVORABLE CONSIDERATION THIS
06:50:25 EVENING I WOULD ASK THE APPLICANT FOR PURPOSES OF THE
06:50:27 AMENDMENT TO THE SITE PLAN BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING,
06:50:32 IF SHE COULD STATE FOR THE RECORD WHAT PERCENTAGE AMI WOULD
06:50:37 BE THE TARGET FOR THE TENANTS AT THIS DEVELOPMENT.
06:50:41 I KNOW THAT WHEN THE CITY COUNCIL HAS APPROVED OTHER
06:50:45 PROJECTS WHERE REQUESTING AN INCREASE IN DENSITY, THE AMI
06:50:56 THAT WAS GOING TO BE ADDRESSED THERE IS BETWEEN 80% AND
06:50:59 120%.
06:51:00 AND I WOULD ASK IF THE CLIENT HAS IDENTIFIED WHAT THAT
06:51:05 PERCENTAGE IS GOING TO BE FOR PURPOSES OF WORKFORCE HOUSING.
06:51:08 BUT WE WOULD LIKE TO INCLUDE THAT AS A CONDITION ON THE SITE
06:51:10 PLAN.
06:51:11 >> TU-MAI: I CAN CONFER WITH MY CLIENT TO ADDRESS THE
06:51:19 PERCENTAGE BUT I DO NOT HAVE THAT AT THIS TIME, THE
06:51:21 PERCENTAGE.
06:51:21 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: ALL RIGHT.
06:51:29 SO MS. WELLS, I DON'T WANT TO DELAY THIS PROJECT IF WE CAN
06:51:39 AVOID IT BUT IT SEEMS TO ME FROM ALL THE DIALOGUE,
06:51:41 ESPECIALLY FROM YOU, THAT IT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL TO HAVE
06:51:45 THAT KIND OF INFORMATION ON THE SITE PLAN BEFORE SECOND
06:51:50 READING, OR PERHAPS WE CAN MAKE A REFERENCE ON THE SITE PLAN
06:51:56 TONIGHT TO AN ATTACHMENT THAT WOULD BE PERHAPS AN AGREEMENT
06:52:02 FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AGREEMENT OR UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN
06:52:08 THE CITY AND MS. MAI'S CLIENT.

07:04:12 11, I THINK WE HAVE SOME PRELIMINARY MATTERS THAT NEED TO BE
07:04:15 DISCUSSED SO I WOULD SUGGEST THAT WE DO THAT BEFORE WE ASK
07:04:18 STAFF FOR INTRODUCTION AND PRESENTATION.

07:04:28 >>JOHN DINGFELDER: MR. CHAIRMAN, IF I COULD.
07:04:31 I WILL SAVE THE APPLICANT AND HER ATTORNEY THE TROUBLE.
07:04:38 MR. MICHELINI IS HERE, FOR THE RECORD, AND I BELIEVE MISS
07:04:47 DOUCETTE, ATTORNEY, IS HERE, AND MISS DOUCETTE AND HER
07:04:51 PARTNER MR. LOEB HAS PRESENTED THE CITY WITH A REQUEST THAT
07:04:53 I RECUSE MYSELF ON BEHALF OF MR. MICHELINI AND HIS LAND USE
07:04:58 CLIENT, AND I CAREFULLY REVIEWED MR. MICHELINI'S ATTORNEY'S
07:05:02 REQUEST FOR ME TO RECUSE MYSELF FROM CONSIDERATION OF THIS
07:05:05 APPLICATION.
07:05:05 I'M QUITE FAMILIAR WITH THE STATUTORY AND DUE PROCESS
07:05:08 REQUIREMENTS REGARDING QUASI-JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS SUCH AS
07:05:11 THIS THAT MUST BE CONDUCTED IN A FAIR AND IMPARTIAL MANNER.
07:05:15 I BELIEVE I CAN BE A FAIR AND IMPARTIAL DECISION MAKER IN
07:05:19 THIS PARTICULAR CASE THIS EVENING AND ANY OTHER EVENING IN
07:05:21 REGARD TO ANYBODY'S CASES, IN ANY CASE THAT MR. MICHELINI
07:05:27 PRESENTS.
07:05:27 HOWEVER, IN AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION, AND BASED ON THE ADVICE
07:05:31 OF LEGAL COUNSEL, I AM GOING TO RECUSE MYSELF FROM
07:05:34 PARTICIPATION AND VOTING ON THIS MATTER THIS EVENING TO
07:05:38 ELIMINATE EVEN THE APPEARANCE OF ANY CONFLICT.
07:05:42 THANK YOU, MR. MICHELINI.
07:05:43 THANK YOU, MS. DOUCETTE.
07:05:47 I WILL RECUSE MYSELF AND FILE THE APPROPRIATE PAPERWORK NEXT
07:05:50 WEEK, AND YOU ALL HAVE A GOOD EVENING.
07:05:52 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, I KNOW THERE'S A SITUATION
07:05:57 GOING ON.
07:05:59 I WANT YOU TO GET WITH THE CITY ATTORNEY, MR. MICHELINI
07:06:03 COMES BEFORE US A LOT, AND I WANT A LEGAL OPINION.
07:06:06 I DON'T WANT TO BE MISSING OUT ON COUNCIL SO I WANT TO GET
07:06:12 AN OPINION FROM YOU AND THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT SO WE WON'T
07:06:14 CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS WHEN MR. MICHELINI COMES BEFORE US,
07:06:18 THIS COUNCIL.
07:06:19 >>MARTIN SHELBY: MRS. GRIMES, I'M SURE, AND I WOULD BE VERY
07:06:22 HAPPY TO DISCUSS THAT WITH YOU, PERHAPS, AND THEN WE CAN
07:06:27 HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT THAT.
07:06:28 >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR.
07:06:34 RECOGNIZED, SIR.
07:06:36 >>BILL CARLSON: MR. SHELBY, WHATEVER OUR DECISION IS FOR OR
07:06:40 AGAINST THE APPLICANT, THERE ALWAYS COULD BE LITIGATION TO
07:06:45 ARGUE THAT PEOPLE ARE BIASED.
07:06:51 IN A SITUATION WHERE -- I HAVE NOTHING, BUT IN A SITUATION
07:06:57 WHERE SOMEONE FILES A LAWSUIT AGAINST ONE OF OUR COLLEAGUES,
07:07:01 IS THERE ANY CASE STUDY THAT WOULD POTENTIALLY IMPLY THAT
07:07:08 ANY CASE LAW THAT WOULD IMPLY THAT THAT CASTS SOME KIND OF
07:07:13 CLOUD OVER THE ENTIRE BODY, WHAT I WOULD LIKE NOT TO HAPPEN
07:07:16 IS IF WE VOTE FOR OR AGAINST SOMETHING THAT LATER ON THAT
07:07:20 THE ENTIRE COUNCIL WAS BIASED BY THE -- BY A PARTICULAR
07:07:25 LAWSUIT AGAINST ONE OF OUR COLLEAGUES.
07:07:29 >>MARTIN SHELBY: WITHOUT ADDRESSING YOUR SPECIFIC QUESTION
07:07:33 GENERALLY, I THINK WITH REGARD TO THIS APPLICATION HERE
07:07:36 TONIGHT, I THINK IT'S INCUMBENT UPON ANY COUNCILMEMBER OR
07:07:41 ANY HEARING AT ANY TIME IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO BE FAIR AND
07:07:47 IMPARTIAL, YOU MAY CHOOSE TO ABSTAIN FROM THAT PURSUANT TO
07:07:51 FLORIDA STATUTE.
07:07:52 SO THE QUESTION WOULD THEN BE, BARRING ANYBODY ABLE TO -- OR
07:08:00 WANTING TO STATE TONIGHT THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO BE FAIR AND
07:08:03 IMPARTIAL, THE PRESUMPTION IS THAT YOU CAN BE AND YOU WILL
07:08:06 GO FORWARD WITH THIS HEARING.
07:08:07 SO IF THE APPLICANT --
07:08:09 >>BILL CARLSON: MY QUESTION IS NOT ABOUT INDIVIDUAL -- I
07:08:13 DON'T THINK ANY OF US WOULD BE SITTING HERE IF WE THOUGHT WE
07:08:16 WOULD BE BIASED, BUT THE QUESTION IS SOMEONE FOR OR AGAINST
07:08:19 THAT PROJECT COULD COME AFTER THE FACT AND SAY THAT THERE
07:08:24 WAS SOME KIND OF CLOUD OVER THE ENTIRE BODY BECAUSE OF A
07:08:28 PARTICULAR SITUATION.
07:08:28 SO ARE YOU AWARE OF ANY CASE LAW OR SHOULD WE LOOK UP ANY
07:08:32 CASE LAW?
07:08:34 >>MARTIN SHELBY: I DON'T THINK IT'S APPROPRIATE TO DISCUSS
07:08:36 THAT NOW AT THIS TIME.
07:08:36 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, AND MR. CARLSON'S QUESTION AS
07:08:45 WELL AND ALSO PERTAINING TO MR. DINGFELDER, WITH MR.
07:08:49 MICHELINI'S CASE.
07:08:51 SO WE GET SOME ANSWERS ON THAT, SIR.

07:14:23 SHOWN HERE PROPERTY LOCATED SOUTH.
07:14:24 SUBJECT SITE AND ACROSS WEST NORTH A STREET.
07:14:30 AND THIS IS A PICTURE FURTHER ALONG WEST NORTH A STREET.
07:14:36 PROPERTY SURROUNDING THE SUBJECT SITE ARE DEVELOPED WITH
07:14:38 RESIDENTIAL AND OFFICE USES.
07:14:39 THE PROPOSED PROJECT FOR MEDICAL AND BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL
07:14:43 OFFICE USES ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT
07:14:46 PATTERN.
07:14:47 THE REQUESTED WAIVERS CREATE AN ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE
07:14:51 IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORHOOD.
07:14:52 THEREFORE, STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND FINDS THE
07:14:56 OVERALL REQUEST INCONSISTENT WITH CITY OF TAMPA LAND
07:14:58 DEVELOPMENT CODE.
07:15:01 I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.
07:15:02 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS OF MS. BARNES?
07:15:05 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: NOT A QUESTION.
07:15:09 THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.
07:15:09 JUST FOR MY MEMORY S.THAT CLOSE TO THE TD BANK?
07:15:17 OH, THAT'S HOWARD.
07:15:18 ALL RIGHT.
07:15:18 THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
07:15:18 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT.
07:15:21 NO QUESTIONS FOR MS. BARNES?
07:15:23 ALL RIGHT.
07:15:23 SEEING NONE, THE APPLICANT.
07:15:26 >>STEVE MICHELINI: GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
07:15:29 STEVE MICHELINI.
07:15:31 YOU MAY, THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE FAMILIAR WITH MUCH THIS AREA,
07:15:33 KNOW THAT THIS WAS DR. VALENTI'S MEDICAL OFFICE.
07:15:37 WAS ZONED RM-16, WHICH WAS AN EXISTING NONCONFORMING USE.
07:15:42 IT WAS BUILT IN 1965, AND I JUST WANT TO GONE THROUGH A
07:15:47 COUPLE OF THE PICTURES.
07:15:49 AND I KNOW THAT AS ANNIE POINTED OUT A COUPLE THINGS ABOUT
07:15:54 BEING INCONSISTENT.
07:15:54 HOWEVER, MY DISCUSSION WITH YOU IS, IF THE MEDICAL OFFICE
07:15:59 WAS INCONSISTENT AND CREATED AN ADVERSE IMPACT, IT'S BEEN
07:16:04 THERE FOR 56 YEARS, AND THAT ADVERSE IMPACT WOULD HAVE BEEN
07:16:08 ESTABLISHED AT LEAST AT THAT POINT, IT WOULD HAVE OCCURRED
07:16:12 MANY YEARS AGO.
07:16:14 THE PROPERTY IS BOARDED ON THE NORTH SIDE BY THESE OAK TREES
07:16:23 AND ANOTHER COMMERCIAL USE, SO WE ARE ASKING FOR REDUCTION
07:16:27 IN THE BUFFER FOR THE MOST PART TO ACCOMMODATE THE TREES AND
07:16:31 THE FACT THAT THE PARKING FOR THE ADJACENT COMMERCIAL USE IS
07:16:37 DIRECTLY ON THE PROPERTY LINE.
07:16:40 SO THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE ANY ADVERSE IMPACT REGARDING THE
07:16:44 BUFFER WAIVER ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY.
07:16:49 THIS IS A VIEW LOOKING SOUTH ON ARMENIA AT NORTH A STREET,
07:16:55 AND EVERY CORNER IS DEVELOPED IN COMMERCIAL OFFICE, THAT YOU
07:17:03 CAN SEE IT HERE, AND ALSO EXTENDS UP AND DOWN ARMENIA WITH
07:17:08 BOTH NEW AND OLDER OFFICES.
07:17:13 THIS IS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE PROPOSED
07:17:17 REDEVELOPMENT OF THE MEDICAL OFFICE SITE.
07:17:23 THIS IS A VIEW OF THE CURRENT SITE.
07:17:28 AND YOU CAN SEE THE ANGLED PARKING IS THERE, AND IT DIRECTLY
07:17:34 ABUTS THIS COMMERCIAL USE HERE, WHICH WAS IDENTIFIED IN THE
07:17:37 STAFF REPORT AS A RESIDENTIAL USE.
07:17:39 IT'S A COMMERCIAL DESIGN STUDIO.
07:17:45 AND THERE'S A PHOTOGRAPH SHOWING YOU IT'S A DESIGN STUDIO
07:17:49 GOING ALL THE WAY UP ON THE SIDE.
07:17:53 THE OTHER ASPECT OF THIS PROPERTY IS -- I WILL SHOW YOU THIS
07:17:59 OTHER PHOTOGRAPH HERE -- THE PROPERTY TO THE WEST IT --
07:18:12 I DON'T SEE IT RIGHT NOW BUT I WILL FIND IT.
07:18:14 THE PROPERTY TO THE WEST IS A RESIDENCE, BUT THEIR DRIVEWAY
07:18:19 AND THEIR GARAGE SITS RIGHT ON THE PROPERTY LINE.
07:18:21 AND SO THE REDUCTION OF THE REDUCTION OF THE BUFFER ON THE
07:18:26 WEST SIDE WHERE THEY HAVE NO MASONRY WALL NOW THERE, WILL BE
07:18:30 A MASONRY WALL.
07:18:34 AND THIS IS THE -- LET ME GET TO THIS ONE.
07:18:52 ON THE SITE DATA TABLE, WE NOTED THAT THERE WAS A COMMENT IN
07:18:58 THERE THAT THIS WAS GOING TO CREATE AN ADVERSE IMPACT TO
07:19:03 OTHER -- TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
07:19:05 AND WE DID A STUDY REGARDING THE PARKING THAT WAS PROVIDED
07:19:14 IN THE AREA, AND WE SUBMITTED THIS TO THE CITY.
07:19:23 WE SUBMITTED THIS TO THE CITY IN ORDER TO OBTAIN OUR -- WE
07:19:28 HAD A DESIGN EXCEPTION WE WERE PROPOSING.
07:19:32 REGARDING THE TRANSPORTATION.
07:19:35 AND IF YOU LOOK ON THE FAR RIGHT-HAND COLUMN, YOU WILL SEE
07:19:39 THE MEDICAL OFFICES.
07:19:41 THIS IS THE PARKING, THE AVERAGE NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES
07:19:45 THAT THEY ARE PROVIDING, AND USING ON A CONSTANT BASIS, AND
07:19:50 YOU HAVE THE 2333 WEST CYPRESS, 602 SOUTH HOWARD, 202 NORTH
07:19:55 ARMENIA, WHICH IS THIS LOCATION, AND TAMPA BAY ENDOCARE, 110
07:20:03 ARMENIA, PREMIER CARE COSMETIC SURGERY, 2419, 605 NORTH
07:20:09 HOWARD, AND 501 NORTH HOWARD.
07:20:12 WE SUBMITTED THIS STUDY IN ORDER TO OBTAIN A WAIVER FROM THE
07:20:17 CITY TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THE WAIVERS THAT WE WERE ASKING FOR
07:20:22 AND THE REDUCTION OF THE PARKING WOULD NOT ADVERSELY IMPACT
07:20:27 ANYONE IN THIS AREA.
07:20:32 WE NOTIFIED EVERYONE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CODE.
07:20:34 I RECEIVED ONE LETTER.
07:20:36 ACTUALLY, I RECEIVED ONE PHONE CALL ASKING ME ABOUT WHAT WAS
07:20:39 BEING PROPOSED THERE, AND WHEN WE INDICATED IT WAS A
07:20:43 REPLACEMENT, THE FIRST TO INVEST THE EXISTING MEDICAL USE
07:20:49 THAT WAS THERE, AND SECOND, TO IN THE FUTURE BUILD A NEW
07:20:52 MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING.
07:20:55 THE BACKUP WAIVER THAT'S BEING REQUESTED IS INTERNAL TO THE
07:20:59 SITE.
07:21:01 IT'S THE HAMMERHEAD.
07:21:11 IF YOU LOOK ON THE SITE PLAN, THE REDUCTION IS THIS AREA
07:21:20 HERE FOR THE CARS TO BACK UP, AND WE HAVE THE STAIRWELL
07:21:25 HERE.
07:21:25 SO THERE'S PLENTY OF ROOM TO BACK UP INTERNALLY.
07:21:29 THIS IS ALL COVERED PARKING UNDERNEATH THE BUILDING THAT'S
07:21:32 BEING PROPOSED.
07:21:35 AND YOU CAN SEE ON HERE, ON THIS NORTH SIDE, ALL OF THE OAK
07:21:43 TREES THAT ARE THERE, AND WE ARE PROPOSING THE BUFFER THERE,
07:21:49 THE MASONRY WALL AS WELL AS OVER HERE WHERE THERE CURRENTLY
07:21:52 ISN'T ONE.
07:21:53 AND ON THE FRONT SIDE, WHERE WE ARE REQUESTING THE WAIVER,
07:21:57 WE ALREADY HAVE EXISTING -- IF YOU LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH,
07:22:08 WE ALREADY HAVE AN EXISTING GREEN SPACE AND BUFFER WAIVER ON
07:22:12 THE FRONT SIDE.
07:22:13 SO THE NEW CONSTRUCTION WILL MIMIC THAT SAME AREA IN THE
07:22:18 SAME KIND OF DIMENSION.
07:22:20 THIS IS LOCATED ON THE SOUTHBOUND ONE-WAY PAIRING OF ARMENIA
07:22:28 AVENUE.
07:22:42 AS THE STAFF HAS NOTED, THE PLANNING COMMISSION IS
07:22:44 SUPPORTING THIS.
07:22:46 WE FIND IT CONSISTENT.
07:22:47 I BELIEVE THAT THE CITY STAFF'S OBJECTIONS, AS I SAID, IT'S
07:22:52 AN EXISTING MEDICAL OFFICE.
07:22:54 THE IMPACT OF THIS WOULD HAVE OCCURRED BACK 50 SOME ODD
07:22:59 YEARS AGO IF THERE WAS GOING TO BE AN ADVERSE IMPACT.
07:23:03 EACH OF THE CORNERS GOING NORTH WHEREVER HERE AND SOUTH ALL
07:23:06 THE WAY TO KENNEDY ARE CHARACTERIZED WITH MEDICAL, BUSINESS
07:23:09 AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICES, LAW OFFICES, SO WE ARE NOT
07:23:13 INTRODUCING A NEW ELEMENT HERE.
07:23:16 THAT HASN'T ALREADY EXISTED.
07:23:17 THE SETBACKS WE ARE PROPOSING ON THE FRONT WOULD BE FIVE
07:23:22 FEET, THE REAR WOULD BE 9.4 FEET, THE SIDE 5 FEET ON THE
07:23:26 NORTH SIDE, AND 10 FEET ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
07:23:31 THE LANDSCAPE BUFFERS BEING PROPOSED WOULD BE FIVE REAR,
07:23:36 FIVE SIDE, FIVE SIDE AND SOUTH WOULD BE EIGHT.
07:23:41 THE MEDICAL OFFICE REQUIRES SIX SPACES PER THOUSAND SQUARE
07:23:46 FEET, AND THAT'S WHY WE ARE REQUESTING THE WAIVER.
07:23:48 WE ARE PROVIDING 18 TOTAL SPACES, ONE OF WHICH IS ADA, 6
07:23:53 IRREGULAR SPACES, 11 COMPACT SPACES.
07:23:56 THIS IS FOR SCHEDULED OUTPATIENT TYPE SURGERY OFFICE FOR A
07:24:01 CARDIOLOGIST.
07:24:02 AND AS I SAID TO YOU THAT WE DID THE STUDY WITH THE OTHER
07:24:06 PROPERTIES, AND THE UTILIZATION, AND WE HAVE SUBMITTED THIS
07:24:10 TO THE CITY ALREADY, AND THIS IS THE CHART WHICH THEY HAVE,
07:24:17 WHICH SHOWS THE UTILIZATION, AND WE BELIEVE THAT THE 18
07:24:21 SPACES WERE WE ARE PROVIDING WILL BE ADEQUATE FOR THIS
07:24:24 PARTICULAR UNIT.
07:24:25 THIS IS A SINGLE DOCTOR, AND HIS WIFE, PRACTITIONER.
07:24:30 THIS IS NOT A MULTI-DOCTOR MEDICAL OFFICE THAT'S BEING
07:24:33 PROPOSED.
07:24:36 WE ARE ON THE EDGE OF THE WEST TAMPA DISTRICT, AND AS SUCH
07:24:41 WILL HAVE TO MEET CERTAIN DESIGN ELEVATION REQUIREMENTS FOR
07:24:45 THE FACADE, AND WE BELIEVE THAT CONSIDERING ALL OF THE
07:24:49 FACTORS INVOLVED THAT WE HAVE MET THE INTENT AND THE
07:24:53 CHARACTER THAT'S NECESSARY FOR THE CODE.
07:24:56 LET ME RUN THROUGH A COUPLE OTHER THINGS, AND WE HAVE TO
07:25:03 MEET; IS THE NATURAL RESOURCES HAS SOME COMMENTS IN HERE
07:25:13 REGARDING TREES THAT THEY THINK SHOULD BE REMOVED, AND THOSE
07:25:16 THAT SHOULD BE PROTECTED.
07:25:19 THE SECTION OF THE CODE THAT WE HAVE TO MEET IS PROMOTE THE
07:25:21 EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE USE TO THE LAND AND
07:25:25 INFRASTRUCTURE, WITH CONSIDERATION FOR POTENTIAL ADVERSE
07:25:27 IMPACTS TO THE NATURAL ELEMENTS AND SURROUNDING IMPACT
07:25:30 NEIGHBORHOODS.
07:25:30 WE BELIEVE THAT WE ARE NOT MAKING ANY ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE
07:25:34 SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD, OR THE NATURAL ELEMENTS, WE ARE
07:25:39 TRYING TO PRESERVE THE TREES THAT THERE, AND WE ARE ASKING
07:25:42 FOR SETBACK WAIVERS FOR THE BUFFERS TO ACCOMMODATE THAT.
07:25:48 ALLOW FOR THE INTEGRATION OF DIFFERENT USES AND DENSITIES OF
07:25:51 ONE DEVELOPMENT THAT WOULD NOT OTHERWISE BE ALLOWED UNDER
07:25:54 THE GENERAL ZONING DISTRICT.
07:25:56 WE HAVE TO GO TO A PD IN THIS CASE BECAUSE FIRST WE HAVE A
07:26:01 NONCONFORMING MEDICAL OFFICE THAT'S ZONED RM-16, AND SECOND
07:26:05 WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE TREES THAT ARE THERE, AND THE
07:26:09 OFF-SITE CONDITIONS REGARDING THE PARKING THAT IS EXISTING
07:26:13 THAT'S ZERO LOT LINE ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY.
07:26:18 WE ARE PROPOSING THE BUILDING TO COMPLY WITH THE CODE AT 35
07:26:22 FEET AND N HEIGHT WHICH IS LESS THAN WHAT WOULD NORMALLY BE
07:26:25 ALLOWED UNDER CG, IF IT WERE CG.
07:26:29 ENCOURAGE THE FLEXIBLE LAND DEVELOPMENT, REDUCES
07:26:32 TRANSPORTATION NEEDS, CONSERVES ENERGY AND MAXIMIZES THE
07:26:36 PRESERVATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES.
07:26:39 WE ARE LESS THAN A BLOCK AWAY FROM A MAJOR TRANSIT CENTER
07:26:43 AND BUS STOP AT ARMENIA AND KENNEDY, AND WE ARE TRYING TO
07:26:48 PRESERVE THE EXISTING LIVE OAKS THAT ARE EXISTING ON THE
07:26:52 SITE.
07:26:54 PROMOTE AND ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT WHERE APPROPRIATE IN
07:26:56 LOCATION AND CHARACTER.
07:26:57 AS I SAID THIS HAS BEEN HERE 56 YEARS.
07:27:00 IT'S ONE OF THE FEW CORNERS THAT HAS NOT BEEN REDEVELOPED,
07:27:04 AND ALONG THAT STRETCH OF ARMENIA.
07:27:06 SO WE ARE NOT INTRODUCING ANY NEW DEVELOPMENT PATTERN HERE.
07:27:11 AN EXISTING ONE.
07:27:12 AND WE BELIEVE THAT ANY IMPACT, ADVERSE, THAT WOULD HAVE
07:27:15 BEEN PRESENT THEREIN HAD ALREADY OCCURRED MANY YEARS AGO.
07:27:20 PROMOTE MORE DESIRABLE LIVING AND WORKING ENVIRONMENTS.
07:27:24 THE PROPOSED USE IS A MEDICAL BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL, AND
07:27:28 WOULD BE ALLOW FOR SEVERAL OTHER TYPES OF USES.
07:27:32 WE BELIEVE THIS IS A LESS INTENSIVE AND MORE COMPATIBLE USE
07:27:36 SINCE IT'S ALREADY EXISTING AND PEOPLE ARE USED TO BEING
07:27:39 GOING TO THIS LOCATION.
07:27:41 ALTHOUGH IT WAS A DENTIST OFFICE AND IS CHANGING TO A
07:27:44 CARDIOLOGIST, THE LOCATION IS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY OR IN GOOD
07:27:48 LOCATION BETWEEN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, TAMPA GENERAL, AS THE
07:27:54 TWO MAJOR HOSPITALS WITHIN AN FEW MAILS OF THIS LOCATION.
07:27:57 PROMOTE THE ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES, WILL HAVE BEEN TO MEET
07:28:00 THE DESIGN GUIDELINES OF THE WEST TAMPA OVERLAY, AND WE WILL
07:28:03 MAKE SURE THAT WE DO THAT.
07:28:05 ALSO, IN TERMS OF THE F.A.R. AND DEVELOPMENT INTENSITY OF
07:28:09 THE SITE, THERE WAS A QUESTION RAISED BY STAFF THAT WE
07:28:12 ACCOMMODATE AND MEET THAT REQUIREMENT, AND WE CLARIFIED THAT
07:28:17 WITH OUR ENGINEER AND OUR SITE PLAN, AND THOSE CORRECTIONS
07:28:20 HAVE BEEN MADE.
07:28:22 IN SUMMARY, WE BELIEVE THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND
07:28:27 THEIR SUPPORT HAS FOUND IT CORRECTLY THAT THIS IS CONSISTENT
07:28:32 AND SHOULD BE APPROVED, AND THE SECOND PART IS THE STAFF, I
07:28:36 THINK, MISSED SOME OF THE ISSUES REGARDING THIS BEING
07:28:40 EXISTING MEDICAL OFFICE, AND OUR SITE CONSTRAINTS THAT WE
07:28:45 WERE TRYING TO ADDRESS.
07:28:46 THE BUFFERS ARE I THINK JUSTIFIED IN CONSIDERATION TO THE
07:28:50 EXISTING TREES, THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT TO THE NORTH, AND
07:28:54 THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT TO THE WEST, AND ALL OF THOSE
07:28:57 CONDITIONS WILL BE BETTER IN THE POST CONDITION THAN THEY
07:29:00 ARE CURRENTLY IN THE PLAN.
07:29:02 I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.
07:29:06 >>ORLANDO GUDES: QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
07:29:08 ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
07:29:09 ALL RIGHT.
07:29:13 ANY SPEAKERS ON THE SECOND FLOOR?
07:29:17 >>JOSEPH CITRO: I HAVE A QUESTION.
07:29:22 >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR.
07:29:25 >>JOSEPH CITRO: [OFF MICROPHONE] THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
07:29:35 WE ARE STILL NOT SEEING IT.
07:29:39 THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
07:29:40 COMPARATIVELY SPEAKING, ARE THESE TWO, FOUR, SIX, SEVEN
07:29:43 LOCATIONS RELATIVE TO WHAT YOU ARE ASKING FOR, WHAT YOU ARE
07:29:48 PETITIONING FOR?
07:29:51 WERE THESE ALL BUILT RECENTLY, AND THESE PARKING
07:29:55 REQUIREMENTS ARE THE SAME AS WHAT THIS LOCATION IS?
07:30:00 I SEE NOW, I SEE THE YEAR BUILT.
07:30:02 SO HOW ARE YOU COMPARING THESE TO THE YEARS THAT THEY WERE
07:30:06 BUILT, THE PARKING SPACES, AND WHAT YOU ARE ASKING FOR NOW?
07:30:09 >>STEVE MICHELINI: WOMEN, THE MOST RECENT ONE IS 2019,
07:30:14 WHICH WAS 4.12 SPACES THAT THEY WERE PROVIDING PER THOUSAND
07:30:19 SQUARE FEET.
07:30:20 AND WE ARE PROPOSING 4.81, WHICH IS HIGHER THAN THAT.
07:30:27 THE OTHER ONES ARE EXISTING.
07:30:31 OBVIOUSLY THEY WERE OLDER SPACES BUT THEY HAVE BEEN
07:30:33 RENOVATED.
07:30:34 SOME OF THEM CAME IN FOR REZONING, AND I DID CHECK THE
07:30:37 REZONING FOR ANOTHER SITE THAT WAS IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY
07:30:41 THAT RECENT LIMIT CAME BEFORE COUNCIL, AND IT WAS VERY
07:30:46 SIMILAR TO THIS.
07:30:48 >>JOSEPH CITRO: MR. MICHELINI, THANK YOU.
07:30:51 I WAS JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW YOU ARE COMPARING
07:30:53 SOMETHING THAT WAS BUILT BACK IN 1948 AND 1961 WITH TODAY.
07:30:57 BUT I THANK YOU, MR. MICHELINI.
07:30:59 >>STEVE MICHELINI: THE ONE THAT I POINTED OUT IS 2019 IS
07:31:03 THE MOST RECENT ONE AND THAT HAS LESS PARKING PER THOUSAND
07:31:07 SQUARE FEET THAN WE HAVE.
07:31:10 >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.
07:31:11 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
07:31:14 >> JENNIFER MALONE: ANY QUESTIONS?
07:31:21 I KNOW JONATHAN SCOTT IS ON THE LINE FOR ANY TRANSPORTATION
07:31:24 RELATED QUESTIONS.
07:31:25 FOR THE RECORD, I WANTED TO STATE THAT THE APPLICANT
07:31:29 PROVIDED ON THE SITE PLAN THE SUBJECT SITE NORTH OF THE
07:31:34 PROPERTY AS MIXED USE RESIDENTIAL.
07:31:36 THAT SITE IS ALSO ZONED RM-16 MULTIFAMILY.
07:31:41 AND THEREFORE REQUIRES THAT BUFFER.
07:31:45 A FORMAL DECISION WOULD NEED TO BE MADE ON BEHALF OF THE
07:31:49 ZONING ADMINISTRATOR TO DETERMINE IF THE OFFICE USE IS A
07:31:54 LEGAL NONCONFORMING USE ON THAT RM-16 ZONED PROPERTY.
07:32:02 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I'M SORRY, I MISSED THAT SECOND PART.
07:32:06 >> NO PROBLEM.
07:32:08 SO THE OFFICE USE WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED BY RIGHT IN AN RM-16
07:32:12 ZONING DISTRICT, SO IN ORDER TO DETERMINE IF IT'S A LEGAL
07:32:15 NONCONFORMING USE TO THE NORTH, FORMAL DECISION WOULD NEED
07:32:20 TO BE MADE FROM THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR.
07:32:24 >>STEVE MICHELINI: IF I COULD RESPOND TO THAT, COUNCIL, WE
07:32:28 DON'T OWN THAT PROPERTY.
07:32:29 I WAS ONLY POINTING OUT THAT IT'S A COMMERCIAL DESIGN
07:32:32 STUDIO, AND NORMALLY YOU WOULD HAVE A 15-FOOT BUFFER.
07:32:38 WE ARE PROPOSING A 6-FOOT MASONRY WALL ALONG THAT SIDE AND A
07:32:43 REDUCTION TO 5 FEET.
07:32:45 AND AS I SHOWED YOU ON THE PHOTOGRAPH, THAT'S A VERY
07:32:48 DIFFICULT BUFFER TO DEAL WITH, BECAUSE OF ALL THOSE OAK
07:32:53 TREES.
07:32:55 AND I THINK I SHOWED YOU THIS PICTURE.
07:32:58 HERE WE GO.
07:33:08 WE HAVE A NUMBER OF MULTI-TRUNK OAK TREES RIGHT THERE.
07:33:14 AND THAT SITS RIGHT ON THE PROPERTY LINE.
07:33:16 AND THE OTHER PROPERTY, IT'S PARKING IS ANGLED AND SITS
07:33:23 RIGHT ON THE PROPERTY LINE COMING FROM THE NORTH SIDE FACING
07:33:26 SOUTH.
07:33:30 SO WE ARE NOT TRYING TO VEST THEIR PROPERTY.
07:33:32 WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR ANYTHING IN THAT REGARD.
07:33:36 BUT WE ARE ASKING FOR THE REDUCTION IN THE BUFFER.
07:33:39 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. MIRANDA.
07:33:41 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: NOW THAT I MENTIONED IT, IF COUNCIL WILL
07:33:46 HELP ME GET MY BEARINGS STRAIGHT, I BELIEVE THAT'S ON FILE
07:33:51 20-99 IS JUST NORTH, IS AN ALLEYWAY, TAMPA GENERAL
07:33:57 OUTPATIENT, I BELIEVE.
07:33:59 AM I CORRECT?
07:33:59 >>STEVE MICHELINI: YES, SIR.
07:34:01 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: NOW I GOT MY BEARINGS.
07:34:03 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
07:34:06 ALL RIGHT.
07:34:09 MR. ROSARIO, ANYBODY ON THE SECOND FLOOR FOR THIS ITEM?
07:34:16 >>AILEEN ROSARIO: DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH MANAGEMENT.
07:34:17 THERE'S IN A ONE HERE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM.
07:34:19 >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU FOR THE MEMENTOS.
07:34:28 >>THE CLERK: NO ONE REGISTERED TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM.
07:34:31 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MOTION TO CLOSE, SECONDED BY MR. MIRANDA.
07:34:37 ALL IN FAVOR?
07:34:38 OPPOSED?
07:34:39 ALL RIGHT.
07:34:39 MR. MIRANDA?
07:34:40 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: FILE NUMBER 11, REZ 20-99.
07:34:46 ORDINANCE BEING PRESENTED FOR FIRST READING CONSIDERATION,
07:34:48 AN ORDINANCE REZONING PROPERTY IN THE GENERAL VICINITY OF
07:34:51 202 NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE IN THE CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA AND

07:35:06 PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
07:35:09 THE WAIVERS, UNDER SECTION 27-139-4, THE PROPOSED
07:35:16 DEVELOPMENT IS UNIQUE AND THEREFORE IN NEED OF WAIVERS.
07:35:18 THE REQUESTED WAIVERS WOULD NOT SUBSTANTIALLY INTERFERE OR
07:35:22 INJURY THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS WHOSE PROPERTY WOULD BE AFFECTED
07:35:26 BY THE WAIVERS UNDER THE DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTION 27-136,
07:35:32 THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AS SHOWN ON THE SITE PLAN PROPOSED
07:35:35 DEVELOPMENT THAT IS APPROPRIATE IN LOCATION, CHARACTER, WITH
07:35:40 THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD, PROMOTES USE, PROMOTES IN T
07:35:48 MOST EFFECTIVE AND SUBSTANTIAL USE OF LAND AND
07:35:51 INFRASTRUCTURE.
07:35:52 THE PROPOSED ZONING IS COMPARABLE AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE
07:35:56 SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN FOR BOTH A RANGE OF USES IN
07:36:00 CLOSE PROXIMITY TO EACH OTHER PURSUANT TO THE LAND USE
07:36:02 POLICY 1.2.8, AND THE PROPOSED REZONING ACHIEVES LAND USE
07:36:09 POLICY 9.3 WHICH ENCOURAGES AREAS ADJACENT OR WITHIN
07:36:13 NEIGHBORHOODS THAT ARE PLANNED FOR NONRESIDENTIAL USE TO BE
07:36:17 DEVELOPED IN A MANNER THAT IS SENSITIVE AND COMPATIBLE TO
07:36:20 THE AFFECTED NEIGHBORHOOD.

07:36:24 >>MARTIN SHELBY: I BELIEVE THERE IS A REVISION SHEET WITH
07:36:27 THIS?
07:36:28 EXCUSE ME.
07:36:29 MR. MICHELINI, IS THERE A REVISION SHEET?
07:36:33 >>STEVE MICHELINI: YES, SIR.

07:37:04 >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE HAVE COME TO THAT TIME.
07:37:08 MR. VIERA?
07:37:10 >>LUIS VIERA: YES, SIR.
07:37:10 JUST ONE, IF I MAY.
07:37:13 WHAT DOES OUR AGENDA LOOK LIKE THAT DAY, MR. SHELBY AND MR.
07:37:16 CHAIR?
07:37:17 I WAS WANTING TO MAKE A MOTION TO GIVE A TAMPA CITY COUNCIL
07:37:20 COMMENDATION TO DR. JASON WILSON, A LOT OF US KNOW IS SUCH A
07:37:24 FINE GENTLEMAN, SUCH A GREAT ADVOCATE FOR SAFETY AND
07:37:29 RESPONSIBILITY WHENEVER IT COMES TO COAST.
07:37:36 >> [OFF MICROPHONE]
07:37:45 >>LUIS VIERA: I MEAN, DO YOU GUYS WANT TO MOVE IT TO A
07:37:47 DIFFERENT DATE, IN OTHER WORDS?
07:37:49 >>JOSEPH CITRO: I'LL SECOND IT.
07:37:52 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. VIERA.
07:37:54 MR. CITRO SECOND IT.
07:37:56 ALL IN FAVOR?
07:37:57 OPPOSED?
07:37:58 >>LUIS VIERA: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.
07:38:00 THAT'S IT.
07:38:00 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. MANISCALCO.
07:38:02 >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NO, SIR.
07:38:03 THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
07:38:03 >>BILL CARLSON: YES, JUST ONE QUICKLY.
07:38:07 I MET YESTERDAY WITH THE NATIONAL DEFENSE INDUSTRY
07:38:10 ASSOCIATION.
07:38:10 I DON'T KNOW IF YOU ALL MET WITH THEM YET.
07:38:12 IT'S A GROUP THAT I HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE HERE, BUT
07:38:17 EVERY TEN YEARS OR SO, BRAD COMES UP REGARDING MacDILL,
07:38:22 AND IT'S NOT APPARENTLY COME UP RIGHT NOW, BUT EVERY TIME, I
07:38:26 THINK I HAVE BEEN THROUGH THREE CYCLES WITH THE CHAMBER, THE
07:38:29 CHAMBER ALWAYS MOBILIZING FOR IT, BUT THIS ORGANIZATION IS A
07:38:33 SEPARATE ORGANIZATION MADE UP OF FORMER DEFENSE DEPARTMENT
07:38:37 PEOPLE, AND THEY LOOK AT -- THEY STUDY WHAT THAN IS
07:38:40 HAPPENING IN OTHER CITIES AND HOW TO MAINTAIN MacDILL,
07:38:44 AND SO THEY WOULD LIKE TO COME GIVE US A SHORT PRESENTATION,
07:38:49 USUALLY WE SAY UP TO TEN MINUTES, ON WHAT IT WOULD TAKE,
07:38:52 WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO PLAN FOR LONG-TERM REGARDING THE AREA
07:38:56 AROUND MacDILL AND WHAT THE COMMUNITY NEEDS TO DO AS A
07:38:59 WHOLE TO SUPPORT MacDILL TO MAKE SURE IT STAYS STRONG
07:39:01 AND THAT WE SUPPORT THE PEOPLE WHO WORK ON THE BASE.
07:39:05 SO I WOULD PROPOSE, IF YOU ALL ARE OKAY WITH THAT, MAYBE
07:39:09 JANUARY 13th, THEN WE WOULD ASK THEM TO GIVE -- NATIONAL
07:39:14 DEFENSE INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION GIVE A PRESENTATION UP TO TEN
07:39:18 MINUTES STARTING AT 9:00.
07:39:21 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, YOU'RE RECOGNIZED.
07:39:26 >>MARTIN SHELBY: WITH REGARD TO THE MOTION, I WOULD JUST
07:39:32 PERHAPS SUGGEST THERE IS PRESENTLY NO CEREMONIAL OR
07:39:37 PRESENTATIONS TO BE SET FOR JANUARY 13th.
07:39:40 THE QUESTION IS, COULD IT BE APPROPRIATE TO HOLD THAT MOTION
07:39:44 FOR THE FOLLOWING REGULAR MEETING?
07:39:46 BECAUSE THIS MAY THE SUBJECT OF DISCUSSION AT MONDAY'S
07:39:49 SPECIAL CALLED WORKSHOP REGARDING YOUR SCHEDULING FOR THE
07:39:53 COMING YEAR.
07:39:55 SO IF YOU DON'T --
07:39:57 >>BILL CARLSON: WE CAN ALWAYS TALK ON MONDAY ABOUT THE
07:39:59 OTHER SCHEDULES BUT RIGHT NOW THERE'S NOTHING ON --
07:40:02 >>MARTIN SHELBY: WELL, THE QUESTION IS WHETHER IT'S GOING
07:40:03 TO BE COUNCIL'S DECISION TO MOVE PRESENTATIONS AND THE LIKE
07:40:07 TO DIFFERENT OPTIONS.
07:40:08 SO RATHER THAN SET IT NOW, WE CAN WAIT, IF YOU WANT TO, AND
07:40:13 COUNCIL CHANGES ITS MIND OR MAKE A DECISION, THEN WE ARE
07:40:16 GOING TO HAVE TO MOVE THAT.
07:40:19 I'M JUST SAYING NOW AS WE MOVE INTO THE COMING YEAR, WE ARE
07:40:21 ONLY A FEW DAYS AWAY --
07:40:24 >>BILL CARLSON: I CAN MOVE TO THE DECEMBER IF YOU WOULD
07:40:25 RATHER DO THAT.
07:40:27 I WAS TRYING TO MOVE IT -- I CAN MOVE TO THE DECEMBER
07:40:30 16th.
07:40:30 I WAS TRYING TO MOVE IT TO JANUARY --
07:40:33 >>ORLANDO GUDES: I THINK TO GIVE US A LITTLE LATITUDE TO
07:40:39 AFTER MONDAY'S MEETING AND STILL GET IT FOR JANUARY, A
07:40:44 LITTLE LATITUDE.
07:40:44 >>BILL CARLSON: THANK YOU.
07:40:47 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT, SIR.
07:40:51 AND I DO SEE YOUR POINT, TO GET THEM HERE TO SPEAK.
07:40:57 BUT WE HAVE GOT MONDAY COMING UP AND WE WILL KIND OF KNOW
07:40:59 WHERE WE ARE GOING TO GO AFTER THE FIRST OF THE YEAR, AND IF
07:41:03 THAT CHANGES.
07:41:03 SO I SEE WHERE MR. SHELBY IS GOING.
07:41:06 >>MARTIN SHELBY: MR. CHAIRMAN, RESPECTFULLY, I JUST POINT
07:41:08 OUT THAT IT LOOKS LIKE DECEMBER 16th, WHICH IS THE LAST
07:41:11 MEETING OF THE YEAR FOR YOU, YOU HAVE NO NIGHT MEETING AND
07:41:14 YOU HAVE A COMMENDATION FOR POLICE OFFICER OF THE MONTH BUT
07:41:17 I BELIEVE THAT'S YOUR ONLY PRESENTATION OR COMMENDATION FOR
07:41:20 DECEMBER.
07:41:21 SO IF THAT'S DOABLE TO COUNCIL.
07:41:25 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. CARLSON.
07:41:25 >>BILL CARLSON: YES, I MEAN WE COULD DO IT NEXT WEEK.
07:41:28 I WAS JUST TRYING TO BE NICE AND MOVE TO THE JANUARY.
07:41:31 IF WE CAN DO IT FOR DECEMBER 16th -- THAT WOULD BE
07:41:34 GREAT.
07:41:35 >>ORLANDO GUDES: AND MONDAY WE WILL MAKE OUR
07:41:39 RECOMMENDATIONS.
07:41:41 >>MARTIN SHELBY: I'M SORRY, BEFORE YOU VOTE, HOW LONG?
07:41:48 >>BILL CARLSON: UP TO TEN MINUTES.
07:41:50 >>ORLANDO GUDES: SECOND BY MR. CITRO.
07:41:52 ALL IN FAVOR?
07:41:53 OPPOSED?
07:41:54 ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?
07:41:55 >>JOSEPH CITRO: YES, IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN.
07:41:58 I HAVE HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS WITH SOME PEOPLE DOWNTOWN.
07:42:00 I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO REQUEST AN IN-PERSON REPORT
07:42:03 FROM STAFF REGARDING THE POTENTIAL OPTIONS FOR CHANGES TO
07:42:07 OUR PARKING, MINIMUMS IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA, WITH POTENTIAL
07:42:12 TO OTHER PARTS OF THE CITY.
07:42:17 YOU KNOW, I.E., IF PARKING DOES COME THROUGH FOR OUR
07:42:20 STREETCAR EXTENSION, WITH HOPES WE COULD PROMOTE THAT.
07:42:28 AND I WOULD HOPE, MR. CHAIR, DECEMBER 16th.
07:42:30 >>ORLANDO GUDES: COULD I MAKE A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT TO THAT,
07:42:33 SIR? WE HAVE BEEN GETTING A LOT OF CALLS ABOUT PARKING IN
07:42:36 THE DOWNTOWN AREA, IN REFERENCE TO SOME FOLKS CAN RESERVE
07:42:41 SPOTS AND SOME FOLKS CAN'T RESERVE SPOTS.
07:42:44 AND I HAVE HAD SEVERAL CALLS WITH SOME BUSINESSES AND SO
07:42:48 FORTH.
07:42:49 SO IF WE CAN GET A REPORT ON THAT ON THE POLICY ON RESERVED
07:42:56 PARKING SPACES UTILIZED BY CITIZENS OR HOW THEY ARE PAID
07:42:59 FOR, OR WHATEVER.
07:43:06 >>JOSEPH CITRO: IF WE WANT TO PIGGYBACK I AM AMENABLE TO
07:43:09 THAT.
07:43:10 VIK, YOU HAVE YOUR WORK CUT OUT FOR YOU ON THE 16th.
07:43:13 WE NEED TO TAKE A VOTE ON THAT.
07:43:15 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT, MR. CARLSON SECONDED IT.
07:43:17 ALL IN FAVOR?
07:43:19 ANY OPPOSED?
07:43:22 >>JOSEPH CITRO: NO.
07:43:23 I DIDN'T MEAN THAT.
07:43:24 I WASN'T OPPOSED.
07:43:26 >>ORLANDO GUDES: MOTION CARRIED.
07:43:29 >>JOSEPH CITRO: TO MY GOOD FRIEND EJ, THANK YOU.
07:43:32 GOOD SEEING YOU AGAIN TODAY.
07:43:34 THAT'S OUR SIGN.
07:43:36 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I JUST WANT TO SAY A LITTLE SHOUTOUT TO
07:43:39 THE TAMPA BAY RAYS.
07:43:42 YOU KNOW, YOU FALL SHORT A LITTLE BIT, BUT THEN YOU LOOK AT
07:43:45 WHAT THEY HAVE DONE, AND I AM NOT A BASEBALL EXPERT.
07:43:49 >>ORLANDO GUDES: OH, COME ON, YOU?
07:43:52 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: NO.
07:43:52 [ LAUGHTER ]
07:43:57 I CAN TELL YOU THIS.
07:43:58 AND THE LITTLE KNOWLEDGE THAT I HAVE, NO ORGANIZATION IN THE
07:44:01 LAST TEN YEARS, MAYBE EVEN MORE THAN THAT, HAS DONE WHAT
07:44:05 THEY HAVE DONE WITH A PAYROLL THAT THEY HAVE AND HOW THEY
07:44:08 BRING UP YOUNG INDIVIDUALS AND MAKE THEM WHAT THEY ARE.
07:44:16 IT'S NOT THE SALARY BUT THE COHESIVENESS OF A GROUP WORKING
07:44:22 TOGETHER.
07:44:22 WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT ANY BUSINESS, IN BASEBALL, FOOTBALL,
07:44:24 HOCKEY, SOCCER, AND BASKETBALL, THEY ARE ALL BUSINESSES JUST
07:44:27 LIKE ANYTHING ELSE.
07:44:28 I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANY TEAM IN ALL OF BASEBALL THAT HAS
07:44:33 ACCOMPLISHED WHAT THEY HAVE, AND I HAVE SAID THIS BEFORE,
07:44:37 WHAT THEY HAVE DONE WITH WHAT THEY HAVE AND HOW THEY MOLD
07:44:41 THE YOUNG PLAYERS WITH THE OTHER PLAYERS, ONE OF THE
07:44:44 STARTERS FOR THE CARDINALS, HE WAS A WAYNE WRIGHT, STILL 39
07:44:48 OR 40 STILL WINNING MORE GAMES THAN HE WAS LOSING.
07:44:52 AND YOU LOOK AT WAYNE WRIGHT, THEIR MENTALITY IS THE SAME,
07:44:57 AND THE BATTERS THAT THEY HAVE BRINGING PEOPLE -- THAT ARE
07:45:03 NOT DISCARDED OR APPROVED OF FOR WHATEVER REASON, AND THE
07:45:08 YOUNG KID THAT STARTED BASEBALL WHEN HE WAS 16, HE'S NOT
07:45:13 EVEN 21, HE'S GOING TO BE AN ANIMAL THE WAY HE DID AND THE
07:45:16 WAY HE RUNS AND THE MENTALITY HE HAS TOWARDS THE GAME, HE'S
07:45:19 A SHORT STOP NOW BUT LET'S SEE WHAT HE DOES.
07:45:22 BUT HE'S A FANTASTIC PLAYER.
07:45:23 AND YOU SEE GUYS NOT BUILT NO BIGGER THAN YOU OR I AND
07:45:29 HITTING 36 HOME RUNS, 39 HOME RUNS, HAD A PITCHER WHO
07:45:33 COULDN'T HIT HIS WEIGHT LIKE ONE TIME AND HE HAD LIKE 30
07:45:37 HOME RUNS.
07:45:37 SO IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT HOME RUNS.
07:45:39 IT'S WORKING TOGETHER.
07:45:41 AND IF YOU WORK TOGETHER AND STAY TOGETHER YOU ARE GOING TO
07:45:43 WIN MORE THAN YOU LOSE.
07:45:44 AND I HAVE TO GIVE A SHOUT TO THE INDIVIDUAL ON THE OTHER
07:45:48 SIDE.
07:45:49 YOU KNOW HOW I AM ABOUT OTHER THINGS AND I AM NOT GOING TO
07:45:51 MENTION THOSE.
07:45:52 BUT THERE'S NO OTHER ORGANIZATION IN BASEBALL THAT HAS DONE
07:45:55 WHAT THEY HAVE DONE WITH THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THEY HAD TO
07:45:57 SPEND.
07:45:58 >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU ARE AN EXPERT.
07:46:02 ONE DAY YOU WILL GET A BALL, COACH.
07:46:07 IF YOU CAN'T GET TO THE FINISH --
07:46:11 >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: WELL, BASEBALL IS HOW THE BALL BOUNCES.
07:46:15 >>ORLANDO GUDES: OH, YEAH.
07:46:16 WELL, WE WISH THE RAYS GOOD LUCK NEXT YEAR, AND THE PAYROLL
07:46:20 THAT THEY HAVE, AND THE PEOPLE, COULD BE A CHAMPIONSHIP
07:46:25 TEAM.
07:46:25 ALL THE WAY TO PRESENTATIONS, SIR.
07:46:28 ANYTHING ELSE?
07:46:30 MR. SHELBY, ANYTHING, SIR?
07:46:31 >>MARTIN SHELBY: NOTHING FOR ME.
07:46:32 THANK YOU.
07:46:34 ONE MORE LAST THING, JUST A REMINDER TO THE COUNCIL THAT WE
07:46:37 HAVE A SPECIAL CALLED WORKSHOP MONDAY MORNING AT 10:00 A.M.
07:46:43 RIGHT HERE TO TALK ABOUT SCHEDULING OF THE AGENDAS.
07:46:46 >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT.
07:46:47 MOTION TO FILE BY MR. MIRANDA, SECOND BY MR. MANISCALCO.
07:46:50 ALL IN FAVOR?
07:46:51 WE ARE ADJOURNED.
07:46:56 (MEETING ADJOURNED)
