05:26:20PM GIVEN THE QUESTIONS FOR THE RECORD AND THE CONCERNS ON
05:26:24PM SECOND READ, THE PROPERTY OWNER CAME TO OUR FIRM AND ASKED
05:26:28PM FOR US TO ASSIST IN THIS READING TO ENSURE THE RECORD IS
05:26:32PM APPROPRIATE.
05:26:32PM TO PRESERVE THE RECORD, YOU KNOW, I DON'T MEAN TO BE TOO
05:26:39PM REPETITIVE BUT I WILL GO THROUGH THE PRESENTATION QUICKLY ON
05:26:42PM SOME OF THE FACTS.
05:26:42PM AGAIN, GENERAL LOCATION 401 WEST SAN CARLOS STREET SOUTH OF
05:26:48PM HENDERSON.
05:26:48PM EAST OF LOIS AND PALMA CEIA WEST.
05:26:51PM FUTURE LAND USE MAP AS PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF NOTED.
05:26:55PM THIS IS R-6, SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED FOR THE LARGER AREA AND
05:27:01PM THE PRO PROPOSAL CONFORMS AND IS COMPATIBLE AND CONSISTENT
05:27:06PM WITH THE R-6 LAND USE CATEGORY AS PLANNING COMMISSION NOTED.
05:27:12PM THE ZONING MAP, THE LARGER AREA IS CURRENTLY ZONED RS-75.
05:27:17PM AS STAFF NOTED, A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF LOTS DO CONFORM WITH
05:27:21PM THIS.
05:27:21PM BUT THE UNDERLYING PLAT DOES HAVE SMALLER LOTS AND WITH
05:27:25PM ZONING CONFORMANCE, A LARGE NUMBER OF LOTS THAT ARE LESS
05:27:29PM THAN 75 FEET IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS WE WILL DISCUSS IN MORE
05:27:32PM DETAIL LATER.
05:27:33PM IMPORTANT FOR THIS APPLICATION, THE REQUEST TO USE A PD WILL
05:27:38PM ALLOW FOR A 55-FOOT FRONTAGE AND MINIMUM LOT SIZE IS 7500
05:27:44PM SQUARE FEET AND LIMITATIONS OF RS-75 WAS INCLUDED IN THIS.
05:27:47PM MOST NOTABLY IS THE 15-FOOT CORNER YARD SETBACK BY THE PD
05:27:54PM SATISFIES AND YET THE -- WITH THOSE LIMITATIONS IS STILL
05:27:59PM ABLE TO CONFORM, WHICH INCREASES THE COMPATIBILITY OF THE
05:28:03PM REQUEST.
05:28:04PM THE REQUEST ITSELF IS TO REZONE FROM RS BE 475 TO PD
05:28:11PM USING RS-75 STANDARDS WITH NO WAIVERS.
05:28:13PM REQUEST FOR TWO SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED DWELLING UNITS AS
05:28:18PM SHOWN HERE.
05:28:18PM FURTHER ON IN THE REQUEST IS TO CREATE TWO LOTS, BUT IT IS
05:28:22PM ACTUALLY NOT CREATING TWO LOTS, IT IS REVERTING TO THE
05:28:25PM EXISTING LOT 7 AND 10 ON THE PLAT THAT IS THERE TODAY.
05:28:28PM THE LOT SIZE ON EACH WOULD BE 7645 SQUARE FEET WHICH IS
05:28:33PM COMPATIBLE AND CONSISTENT WITH RS-75, BUT ALSO WITH THE R-6
05:28:40PM UNDERLYING FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORY AND THE CRUX OF THE PD
05:28:44PM TO USE THE 5500 FRONTAGE THAT THE PLAT PROVIDES FOR.
05:28:48PM CONSISTENCY, THE COMPREHENSIVE STAFF FOUND IT CONSISTENT AND
05:28:54PM NUMBER OF LAND USE POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES.
05:28:56PM SPECIFICALLY THAT THE REQUEST WILL ALLOW FOR A DEVELOPMENT
05:28:59PM SIMILAR IN FORM, HEIGHT AND SCALE.
05:29:01PM AND NOTING THAT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENCOURAGES NEW
05:29:04PM HOUSING ON VACANT UNDERUTILIZED LAND.
05:29:07PM I UNDERSTAND ADDING ONE HOUSE IS NOT GOING TO SOLVE THE
05:29:10PM HOUSING CRISIS BUT A 110-SQUARE-FOOT LOT IN THE CORE OF THE
05:29:15PM CITY IS UNDERUTILIZED LAND.
05:29:18PM CONSISTENCY WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE, THIS IS
05:29:22PM STRAIGHTFORWARD SHOWING THE EXCERPT FROM THE STAFF REPORT.
05:29:24PM EVERY AGENCY FOUND IT CONSISTENT AND IT IS CONSISTENT WITH
05:29:27PM THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
05:29:28PM REGARDING COMPATIBILITY, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF NOTED
05:29:31PM THAT THE PROPOSED REQUEST WOULD ALLOW FOR DEVELOPMENT THAT
05:29:34PM IS SIMILAR TO FORM, HEIGHT AND SCALE AS I NOTED.
05:29:37PM ONE OF THE CONCERNS ON THE FIRST -- SORRY, THE SECOND
05:29:40PM READING WAS THE ANALYSIS WAS DONE WITH THE FRONTAGE ON WEST
05:29:46PM SAN CARLOS STREET.
05:29:48PM PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF WAS NOT UPDATED BECAUSE ANALYZED
05:29:51PM WITH WEST SAN CARLOS AND CAMERON AVENUE.
05:29:53PM AND DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION STAFF FOUND IT APPROPRIATE IN
05:29:57PM LOCATION AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:30:00PM THERE ARE NO WAIVERS.
05:30:01PM SO YOUR PROFESSIONAL STAFF, THE EXPERT OPINION SHOWED THAT
05:30:04PM THE REQUEST IS CONSISTENT AND COMPATIBLE, BUT WE WANT TO
05:30:07PM OFFER A COUPLE OF EXTRA FACTS FOR THE BOARD TO CONSIDER WITH
05:30:10PM REGARDS TO COMPATIBILITY.
05:30:12PM WHAT I HOPE TO DESCRIBE HERE ON THIS SLIDE IS A FEW
05:30:15PM DIFFERENT WAYS TO LOOK AT THIS.
05:30:17PM THE FIRST WAY I LOOKED AT THIS BEING INTRODUCED TO THE
05:30:22PM APPLICATION IS THE BLOCK FACE.
05:30:23PM TALKING OF CAMERON AVENUE.
05:30:25PM IF APPROVED, FIVE OF THE EIGHT LOTS WILL FALL THE PLAT LOT,
05:30:30PM WHICH IS 55-FOOT-LOTS.
05:30:34PM THE PLAT SHOW ONE OF THE LOTS IS 57 FEET, BUT ALL USEFUL
05:30:38PM PURPOSES A PLAT OF 55-FOOT LOTS ALONG CAMERON AVENUE.
05:30:42PM YOU LOOK AT THE ACTUAL BLOCK.
05:30:44PM BLOCK 23 OF THE PLAT BORDERED BY SAN MIGUEL, SAN CARLOS,
05:30:50PM CAMERON AND CLARK.
05:30:50PM IF YOU LOOK AT THE BLOCK, SEVEN OF THE NINE WILL FOLLOW THE
05:30:54PM PLATTED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN WHICH, WE BELIEVE, ALSO SHOWS
05:30:58PM CONSISTENCY.
05:30:59PM AND EXTEND A LITTLE FURTHER HERE AND INFINITE NUMBER OF WAYS
05:31:03PM TO DO THIS, BUT TO SIMPLY SHOW WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO GET
05:31:06PM ACROSS HERE.
05:31:06PM YOU TAKE EVERYTHING ACROSS THE RIGHT-OF-WAYS-OF-WAY.
05:31:11PM YOU ARE LEFT WITH 23 PARCELS.
05:31:13PM IF APPROVED, 15 OF THE 23 LOTS ARE LESS THAN 75 FEET.
05:31:18PM 65% WILL BE LESS THAN THE RS-75 FRONTAGE REQUIREMENTS.
05:31:23PM THE REQUEST HERE IS NOT INCOMPATIBLE.
05:31:26PM IN FACT IT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA.
05:31:29PM NOW I WANT TO TALK BRIEFLY ABOUT THE PREVIOUS HEARINGS.
05:31:31PM ESTABLISHING A NEW RECORD HERE TODAY.
05:31:34PM WHEN TALK OF THE APPROVAL OF THE COUNCIL AT THAT HEARING, I
05:31:37PM AM NOT SUGGESTING THAT THAT IS SOME SORT OF EVIDENCE FOR
05:31:41PM TODAY, BUT I DO WANT TO TALK ABOUT WHAT COUNCIL PUT ON THE
05:31:45PM RECORD THAT DAY.
05:31:45PM AT FIRST READING SIGNIFICANT OPPOSITION.
05:31:47PM THERE WAS AN APPROVAL VOTE 5-2.
05:31:50PM AND NOTABLY OF THOSE FIVE YES VOTES, FOUR OF THEM -- FOUR OF
05:31:54PM YOU COUNCILMEMBERS WENT ON THE RECORD AND SAID WE HEAR THE
05:31:56PM OPPOSITION, AND I AM PARAPHRASING HERE, BUT COMPATIBILITY
05:32:03PM HERE AND SUPPORTED THE MOTION.
05:32:04PM THEN CAME FOR A SECOND READING JULY 14, AND THERE WAS A
05:32:09PM PROBLEM WITH THE RECORD CALLED OUT.
05:32:10PM AND, OF COURSE, I AM SURE THE COUNCILMEMBERS REMEMBER THAT.
05:32:14PM BUT THAT PROBLEM WAS NOT IDENTIFIED ON THE RECORD.
05:32:16PM STAFF SAID THERE WAS CONCERN THAT THE RECORD NEEDED TO BE
05:32:20PM MODIFIED TO ENSURE THAT THE RECORD WAS APPROPRIATE FOR A
05:32:24PM QUASI-JUDICIAL HEARING AND CONTINUED -- IN A MANNER OF
05:32:28PM SPEAKING REMANDED HERE TODAY FOR FIRST READ.
05:32:30PM THE RECORD CHANGES.
05:32:32PM AS STAFF NOTED, THE STAFF REPORT MENTIONED 65 -- SORRY
05:32:37PM 60-FOOT LOT INSTEAD OF A 75-FOOT LOT.
05:32:40PM AND IT -- THE STAFF REPORT ALSO LISTED SINGLE-FAMILY
05:32:43PM ATTACHED.
05:32:44PM ADDITIONALLY, THE BLOCK FACE ANALYSIS WAS BASED ON WEST SAN
05:32:48PM CARLOS INSTEAD OF SOUTH CAMERON AVENUE.
05:32:51PM NOTABLY ON JUNE 9, THE STAFF PRESENTED A PRESENTATION
05:32:56PM DISCUSSING THE CHANGE FROM RS-75, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY
05:33:01PM TO PD, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED AND ON THE RECORD
05:33:05PM NOTED SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED NOT ATTACHED.
05:33:07PM I WOULD SUGGEST TO COUNCIL THAT THOSE FIRST TWO ISSUES ARE
05:33:10PM NOT SUBSTANTIVE CHANGES FROM WHAT YOU ALL HEARD ON JUNE 9 IN
05:33:15PM CHAMBERS.
05:33:16PM ADDITIONALLY, AS STAFF NOTED TONIGHT, THE ANALYSIS WAS
05:33:20PM RECONDUCTED CONSIDERING WEST SAN CARLOS -- EXCUSE ME
05:33:25PM CONSIDERING WEST CAMERON AS THE FRONTAGE AND NOTED THE SAME
05:33:28PM CONCLUSION CONSISTENCY AND COMPATIBILITY.
05:33:30PM NO SUBSTANTIVE CHANGES FROM THE RECORD YOU HEARD ON JUNE 9.
05:33:33PM NO CHANGES TO THE DESIGN OF THE APPLICATION BEFORE YOU
05:33:36PM TODAY.
05:33:36PM TODAY'S RECORD -- REQUEST A PD TO USE THE PLATTED LOTS,
05:33:42PM SPECIFICALLY LOTS 7 AND 10 OF LOT 23.
05:33:45PM AND CONSISTENT AND COMPATIBLE WITH R-6, USE THE DEVELOPMENT
05:33:51PM STANDARDS WITH A PLATTED LOT OF 55 FEET.
05:33:53PM SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME RECORD.
05:33:55PM IN CONCLUSION, THE GOAL IS TO UTILIZED THE PD TO DEVELOP
05:33:59PM CONSISTENT WITH THE NEARBY SCALE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:34:01PM THE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS CHOSEN ARE MEANT TO ENHANCE
05:34:06PM COMPATIBILITY.
05:34:06PM THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN -- LET ME MOVE BACK TO THAT FOR A
05:34:11PM MOMENT.
05:34:12PM THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN ITSELF IS MEANT TO ENSURE
05:34:15PM COMPATIBILITY.
05:34:16PM THE TOP PICTURE THERE SHOWS LOT 7.
05:34:19PM THAT STRUCTURE HAVING ONLY A FRONTAGE ON CAMERON HAS THE
05:34:24PM ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN AND DETAIL ON CAMERON.
05:34:27PM BUT YOU CAN SEE THE ADDITIONAL ARCHITECTURAL DETAIL ON THE
05:34:30PM CORNER LOT TO ENSURE THAT THERE IS THE FRONTAGE ON CAMERON
05:34:33PM THERE ON THE LEFT WITH THAT ENTRANCE, BUT ALSO ON THE SIDE
05:34:36PM WITH THE VEHICULAR ACCESS.
05:34:37PM THERE IS STILL ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNS SO THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS
05:34:41PM NOT LOOKING AT A BLANK WALL FACE ALONG WEST SAN CARLOS.
05:34:45PM NO WAIVERS WERE REQUESTED.
05:34:49PM THE REQUEST IS TO DEVELOP UNDER THE EXISTING PLAT.
05:34:53PM AND ALL STAFF FOUND IT CONSISTENT AND COMPATIBLE AND WE
05:34:57PM REQUEST YOUR APPROVAL.
05:34:58PM THANK YOU.
05:34:58PM WE ARE HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OF THE DESIGN TEAM IS
05:35:03PM HERE AS WELL.
05:35:04PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE PETITIONER?
05:35:11PM IS THERE ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE THAT WISHES TO SPEAK TO
05:35:14PM AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 1, REZ 22-24?
05:35:26PM PLEASE, IF YOU WILL, FORM A LINE TO MY LEFT, YOUR RIGHT.
05:35:32PM WHEN YOU APPROACH THE PODIUM, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND
05:35:39PM TELL US WHETHER YOU HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.
05:35:41PM THANK YOU.
05:36:48PM I AM READY.
05:36:49PM AND I DO HAVE SOME EXTRA MINUTES.
05:36:54PM I HAVE FIVE EXTRA MINUTES THAT HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO ME.
05:36:58PM SHOULD I GIVE THESE TO SOMEONE?
05:37:01PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: YOU WOULD BE GIVING THEM TO OUR LEGAL, WHO
05:37:05PM HAS STEPPED OUT FOR JUST A MOMENT.
05:37:07PM WHO ARE -- WHO ARE THE NAMES THAT YOU ARE GETTING THESE
05:37:14PM EXTRA MINUTES FROM?
05:37:15PM AND WHEN YOUR NAME IS CALLED, PLEASE STAND UP OR WAVE.
05:37:21PM LET'S SEE.
05:37:27PM JAN FLOWERS.
05:37:28PM AMY FERRERA AND MARK CAMACHO.
05:37:41PM HE WENT TO THE BATHROOM.
05:37:45PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THREE PEOPLE, THREE MINUTES, CORRECT, MR.
05:37:48PM MASSEY?
05:37:49PM YOU GET THREE EXTRA MINUTES.
05:37:51PM >> SORRY, DONNA VAN MAIN.
05:37:54PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ARE YOU GOING TO SPEAK?
05:37:59PM >> NO, I AM GOING TO HELP HER WITH THE SLIDES.
05:38:02PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: FOUR EXTRA MINUTES YOU GET.
05:38:06PM >> ANITA COMACHO.
05:38:09PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU, PLEASE PROCEED.
05:38:12PM >> THANK YOU, COUNCILMEMBERS.
05:38:13PM MICHAEL McNABB, RESIDENT OF PALMA CEIA WEST FOR 47 YEARS
05:38:18PM AND CURRENT PRESIDENT OF PALMA CEIA WEST NEIGHBORHOOD
05:38:22PM ASSOCIATION.
05:38:22PM OUR BOARD HAS VOTE TO OPPOSE THIS REZONING, AND I'M HERE TO
05:38:26PM SPEAK AS THE PRESIDENT AND HOMEOWNER WITHIN SITE OF THE
05:38:30PM SUBJECT PROPERTY.
05:38:31PM I KNOW THIS NEIGHBORHOOD WELL, AND I CARE ABOUT PRESERVING
05:38:34PM THE GOOD THINGS IN IT.
05:38:35PM WE WERE NEVER ASKED TO MEET WITH THE OWNERS OF THIS REZONING
05:38:41PM AND WE HAVE THE PAST IN SIMILAR ZONINGS.
05:38:44PM INCONVENIENT TRUTH THAT THE CITY STAFF HAS NOT BROUGHT TO
05:38:48PM YOUR ATTENTION THAT DIRECTLY EFFECTS ITS LOT SPLIT.
05:38:50PM 2012, OWNER AT 2401 CAMERON AVENUE WHICH IS DIAGONALLY
05:38:56PM ACROSS THE STREET -- I HAVE A STICKER THERE THAT SHOWS THAT
05:38:59PM -- FILED A REZONING PD TO SPLIT THAT LOT AND BUILD TWO
05:39:03PM HOUSES.
05:39:03PM ABBYE FEELEY, WHO WAS THEN A STAFFER, VISITED THE
05:39:07PM NEIGHBORHOOD AND WROTE THE STAFF REPORT, WHICH YOU HAVE IN
05:39:10PM FRONT OF YOU.
05:39:10PM THE RECOMMENDATION -- AND I AM QUOTING WAS, THE DEVELOPMENT
05:39:16PM REVIEW COMMITTEE HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND FOUND IT
05:39:22PM INCONSISTENT WITH LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
05:39:25PM USES THE TERM "INCONSISTENT" FOUR TIMES AND WHY LOT
05:39:30PM SPLITTING IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE DOMINANT PATTERN OF THE
05:39:33PM SURROUNDING AREA.
05:39:34PM THAT IS ALL IN THAT REPORT.
05:39:35PM CITY COUNCIL VOTED TO DENY THAT REZONING PD.
05:39:39PM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA VOTED TO DENY THAT.
05:39:43PM A SINGLE-FAMILY HOUSE WAS SUBSEQUENTLY BUILT ON THAT LOT.
05:39:48PM TEN YEARS LATER, THE VERY SAME KIND OF LOT SPLIT IS SOMEHOW
05:39:53PM CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE ACCORDING TO
05:39:55PM STAFF.
05:39:55PM NOTHING HAS CHANGED IN PALMA CEIA WEST.
05:39:58PM SAME NUMBER OF PARCELS EXIST THAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU.
05:40:01PM NO NEW LAND HAS BEEN ADDED OR ANNEXED IN.
05:40:05PM NEVER BEEN A REZONING OR PD IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:40:09PM AND THE NEW HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT HAVE BEEN BUILT ON
05:40:12PM EXISTING LOTS AS OLDER HOMES WERE TORN DOWN.
05:40:15PM AS THE FAMOUS CATCHER YOGI BERRA WOULD SAY, IT IS LIKE DÉJÀ
05:40:23PM VU ALL OVER AGAIN.
05:40:24PM JULY 12, MEMBERS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD MET WITH ABBYE FEELEY
05:40:31PM AND LACHONE DOCK.
05:40:32PM WE ASKED WHY THE PRIOR REPORT WAS NOT CONSIDERED AS A
05:40:35PM PRECEDENT TO THE PD.
05:40:39PM ABBYE SAID THE REPORT WAS CORRECT AND SHE STOOD BY THE
05:40:43PM RECOMMENDATIONS.
05:40:44PM WE WERE SURPRISED WHEN THEY SAID THE LOT SPLIT IN SAN CARLOS
05:40:49PM WAS CONSISTENT AND THE 2012 REPORT WAS NOT MENTIONED IN
05:40:52PM THERE.
05:40:53PM THIS WAS THE NEW INFORMATION BROUGHT TO THEIR ATTENTION THAT
05:40:56PM LACHONE ALLUDED TO AT THE SECOND HEARING.
05:40:59PM THAT IS WHAT CAUSED IT TO BE CANCELLED, IN MY OPINION.
05:41:04PM THIS IS A QUASI-JUDICIAL HEARING AND YOU SHOULD LOOK BACK ON
05:41:08PM PRIOR DECISIONS FOR GUIDANCE.
05:41:09PM NOW THREE STAFF REPORTS.
05:41:10PM ONE SO CONFUSING AND INACCURATE THE SECOND READING WAS
05:41:15PM CANCELLED.
05:41:15PM ONE IN MY OPINION IS STILL CONFUSING AND MISLEADING AND
05:41:19PM ABBYE FEELEY'S REPORT WHICH SHE SAYS WAS CORRECT THEN AND
05:41:23PM CORRECT NOW.
05:41:24PM THE NEW REVISED REPORT WILL HAVE YOU BELIEVE THAT THE SINGLE
05:41:27PM BLOCK OF CAMERON AVENUE CONTAINING SEVEN HOUSES -- AND YOU
05:41:30PM CAN SEE THAT ON THERE -- DETERMINES THE CHARACTER OF THE
05:41:34PM ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:41:35PM FURTHERMORE, STAFF BELIEVES THAT THE BLOCK FACE WHICH ISN'T
05:41:39PM IN THE CODE ANYWHERE -- I DON'T KNOW IF I KNOW WHAT BLOCK
05:41:43PM FACE MEANS, BUT IT IS CERTAINLY NOT PART OF YOUR CODE.
05:41:47PM OF FOUR LOTS ON THE EAST SIDE OF CAMERON IS THE MOST
05:41:50PM IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THEIR ANALYSIS AND OVERRIDES ALL THE
05:41:54PM OTHER LOTS THAT YOU SEE ON THAT COLOR MAP.
05:41:56PM IN FACT, YOU CAN'T IGNORE THE COLORS ON THAT MAP.
05:42:00PM THIS IS BLUE VERSUS ALL OF THE OTHER COLORS THAT ARE ON
05:42:03PM THERE, WHICH ARE ALL 60 FEET AND LARGER.
05:42:06PM THE BLUE LOTS -- WELL, I WILL GET TO THAT.
05:42:08PM IF YOU LOOK AT THE MAP, THERE ARE CONVENIENTLY THREE OF THE
05:42:16PM 20 BLUE NONCONFORMING LOTS ON THE BLOCK FACE.
05:42:19PM THIS SEEMS TO BE THE ARGUMENT.
05:42:20PM THAT CHANGING A CONFORMING PARCEL, THE SUBJECT PARCEL, TO
05:42:24PM TWO OR MORE NONCONFORMING PARCELS MAKE SENSE.
05:42:27PM THIS IS CHERRY PICKING.
05:42:29PM WHEN THE TRUTH IS THAT 90% OF THE 214 LOTS ON THAT MAP ARE
05:42:34PM WIDER THAN 60 FEET.
05:42:36PM AND 70% ARE WIDER THAN 70 FEET.
05:42:39PM THEY CLEARLY MEET OUR ZONING.
05:42:42PM WHEN PALMA CEIA WEST WAS ZONED RS-75, THE BLUE LOTS WERE
05:42:47PM GRANDFATHERED IN.
05:42:49PM THEY ARE STILL BUILDABLE LOTS BUT THEY DON'T MEET THE
05:42:52PM CURRENT ZONING AND THEY ALL HAVE HOUSES ON THOSE.
05:42:55PM THESE BLUE LOTS ARE NOT REPRESENTATIVE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD
05:42:57PM AND CREATING TWO MORE IS INCONSISTENT WITH PALMA CEIA WEST
05:43:02PM WHICH HAS 600 HOMES IF YOU EXPAND THAT OUT TO THE BORDERS OF
05:43:05PM DALE MABRY AND MORRISON AVENUE.
05:43:07PM THE PETITIONER AND STAFF WANT -- AND I AM QUOTING, TO RESTAB
05:43:12PM THE PLATTED LOTS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE BLOCK FACE TO BE
05:43:15PM CONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS OF THE
05:43:17PM BLOCK AS WELL AS THE MINIMUM LOT REQUIREMENTS FOR THE RES-6
05:43:22PM LAND USE AND RS-75 ZONING DISTRICT ON PAGE 4.
05:43:27PM THIS IS NONSENSE.
05:43:28PM DEVELOPED AND SOLD WITH ONE LOT JUST LIKE ANY OTHER LOTS.
05:43:32PM AND THIS WAS COMPLETELY OPPOSITE OF THE VERBIAGE IN THE 20
05:43:36PM REPORT THAT YOU HAVE, WHICH SAYS, THE PROPOSED LOT SPLIT AND
05:43:41PM CREATION OF TWO LOTS IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT
05:43:44PM PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDED IMPACTED NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:43:47PM THIS IS FRANKLY JUST SPOT ZONING.
05:43:49PM COUNCIL WAS LOOKING FOR LEGS ON THE STOOL.
05:43:51PM YOU HAVE THESE NOW.
05:43:53PM YOU HAVE ABBYE FEELEY'S REPORT WHICH IS ON POINT.
05:43:56PM YOU HAVE THE COLOR MAP THAT YOU CAN SEE THE MUCH LARGER LOTS
05:44:01PM ON FLORIDA THERE VERSUS THE GRANDFATHER LOTS THAT ARE BLUE.
05:44:05PM THE TESTIMONY OF NEIGHBORS WHO ARE HERE TONIGHT THAT ARE
05:44:07PM SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS IN THE COMP PLAN THAT STATES THAT THE
05:44:10PM CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD MUST BE PROTECTED AND THEY
05:44:13PM WILL SPEAK TO THAT.
05:44:13PM AND FOURTH, THE 75-FOOT FRONTAGE HAS BEEN THERE FOR 60
05:44:20PM YEARS.
05:44:20PM AND IT HAVEN'T OPINION CHALLENGED -- IT HAS NO BEARING
05:44:23PM REALLY.
05:44:24PM SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY BEARING ON THIS PARTICULAR CASE.
05:44:28PM ALL COMPETENT AND SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE THAT YOU SHOULD
05:44:31PM CONSIDER.
05:44:31PM LASTLY, I WANT TO SAY, THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BOUGHT LOTS AND
05:44:35PM BUILT HOUSES IN PALMA CEIA WEST HAVE THE EXPECTATION AND
05:44:38PM RIGHT TO HAVE THE RS-75 ZONING ENFORCED.
05:44:42PM BUILT THE HOUSES TO FIT THE LOTS.
05:44:43PM FOLLOWED THE CITY CODES IN THE RULES AND REGULATIONS.
05:44:46PM THAT'S ALL WE ARE ASKING.
05:44:47PM EVERYBODY FOLLOWS THE SAME RULES.
05:44:49PM EVERYBODY FOLLOWS THE SAME RULES.
05:44:51PM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA WAS A PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL PLAYER.
05:44:56PM HE KNOW WHAT IS PLAYING BY THE RULES MEANS.
05:44:58PM WITH THE EVIDENCE IN FRONT OF YOU AND IN THE RECORD, YOU
05:45:02PM HAVE TO VOTE NO ON THIS REZONING.
05:45:03PM I HEARD THE TERM "UNDERUTILIZATION" USED.
05:45:08PM I DON'T SEE THAT ON THE MAP.
05:45:09PM THESE LOTS ARE BIGGER -- WAY BIGGER THAN 55 FEET IF YOU LOOK
05:45:13PM OUT ON IT.
05:45:14PM THAT IS ALL I HAD TO SAY.
05:45:18PM I DIDN'T NEED ALL THE EXTRA TIME.
05:45:20PM I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND HOW THIS MAP
05:45:23PM WORKS, BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE IT WAS CONFUSING AT THE FIRST
05:45:26PM MEET WITH ALL THESE COLORS ON IT.
05:45:27PM SO BLUE AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN MY MIND.
05:45:30PM BECAUSE I AM COLOR-BLIND.
05:45:32PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
05:45:33PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
05:45:34PM NEXT, PLEASE.
05:45:35PM I AM SORRY, SIR, YOU ARE GOING TO ADMIT THESE AS EVIDENCE.
05:45:40PM YOU WANT US TO KEEP THESE AS EVIDENCE?
05:45:43PM >> YES, THEY ARE IN THE RECORD BUT I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO
05:45:47PM KEEP THOSE.
05:45:48PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
05:45:49PM MISS BENNETT, IF YOU ARE READY.
05:46:22PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: I THINK SHE IS ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL TIME
05:46:25PM AS WELL.
05:46:25PM IS IT JIM McMAHON?
05:46:30PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: PLEASE STAND OR WAVE.
05:46:32PM THANK YOU, SIR.
05:46:33PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: ROBIN REEVES.

05:46:42PM LARRY BELCHER.
05:46:44PM MAX GUSTAFSON.
05:46:49PM ANNE PERSON.
05:46:52PM AND ALFRED FARIANS.
05:46:59PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
05:47:01PM SIX EXTRA MINUTES?
05:47:03PM >> SEVEN.
05:47:04PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: SEVEN.
05:47:05PM THANK YOU.
05:47:05PM HI, MY NAME IS CARROLL ANN BENNETT AND A LIFE-LONG RESIDENT
05:47:17PM OF SOUTH TAMPA.
05:47:17PM LOOK AT THIS EVACUATION MAP.
05:47:20PM LOOK AT SOUTH TAMPA.
05:47:22PM MANDATORY EVACUATIONS OF ZONE A AND B.
05:47:26PM AND GOD HELP US IF THEY EVACUATE ZONE C.
05:47:29PM I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE REST OF THE CITY, A LOT OF
05:47:33PM IT IN NOT IN AN EVACUATION ZONE AND THE AREAS THAT ARE, THEY
05:47:37PM CAN GO IN LOTS OF DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS TO GET OUT.
05:47:40PM SOUTH TAMPA CAN GO IN ONLY ONE DIRECTION AND ALL IN A
05:47:44PM LOW EVACUATION ZONE.
05:47:45PM THE COMP PLAN RECOGNIZE THIS IS AND EXPLICITLY SAYS SIX
05:47:51PM LEVELS OF INTENSITY FOR DEVELOPMENT.
05:47:53PM SOUTH TAMPA IS LEVEL ONE IN YELLOW.
05:47:56PM NO CHANGE BECAUSE ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITIES THAT WILL BE
05:47:59PM COMPROMISED BY URBANIZATION.
05:48:01PM HAS LIMITED ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES WHICH WILL
05:48:04PM BE INEFFICIENT TO APPROVE.
05:48:06PM LIMITED OPPORTUNITIES TO CREATE MORE COMMUNITY FACILITIES,
05:48:10PM OPEN SPACES OR SERVICES, AND ON UNSTABLE AND FLOOD-PRONE
05:48:14PM LAND.
05:48:14PM THAT IS WHAT THE COMP PLAN SAYS.
05:48:17PM THIS IS FROM CITY ATTORNEY GINA GRIMES.
05:48:19PM COURTS ARE HAVE RULED NEVER THE LAW THAT A LAND OWN IS
05:48:23PM ENTITLED TO THE HIGHEST AND BEST USE OF HIS HANDS AND THE
05:48:27PM COURTS MAINTAIN THAT A ZONING CLASSIFICATION IS PRESUMED TO
05:48:32PM BE VALID.
05:48:32PM JEAN DUNCAN.ED AT THIS MAP AND TOLD COUNCIL THIS IS WHERE
05:48:37PM TAMPA'S GROWTH MUST BE.
05:48:40PM THIS IS WHERE IT MAKES SENSE.
05:48:41PM THIS IS WHERE IT IS BENEFICIAL.
05:48:44PM NOT IN SOUTH TAMPA.
05:48:46PM RANDY GOERS SAYS A PART OF TAMPA OF CONCERN.
05:48:52PM HE POINTED AT THREE PLANNING DISTRICTS THAT HAVE ROOM FOR
05:48:55PM GROWTH -- HE -- THEY HAVE ROOM FOR GROWTH AND BENEFIT FROM
05:48:59PM GROWTH AND NEEDED THE INVESTMENT BEING FUNNELED TO SOUTH
05:49:03PM TAMPA INSTEAD.
05:49:04PM HE WAS SO CONCERNED HE ADVOCATING FOR A MORATORIUM FOR
05:49:08PM BUILDING SOUTH OF GANDY.
05:49:10PM AND HE WAS NOT REWARDED FOR HIS HONESTY.
05:49:16PM WITH KNEE MORE HOUSING BUT NOT TO PUT IT IN SOUTH TAMPA.
05:49:20PM THE NUMBER OF TIMES THAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE CITY
05:49:23PM STAFF AND THE DEPARTMENT WANT TO DO SOMETHING, THEY CAN NOT.
05:49:28PM THEY MUST ABIDE BY THE LANGUAGE IN THE COMP PLAN.
05:49:30PM THE GREEN PAPER, EIGHT CITATIONS FROM THE COMP PLAN THAT
05:49:34PM SAYS YOU MUST DENY THIS INCOMPATIBLE, INCONSISTENT, OUT OF
05:49:38PM CHARACTER EXTREME LOT SPLIT.
05:49:39PM THE SOL SHOW SUMS IT UP, MAINTAIN THE CURRENT CHARACTER AND
05:49:45PM DENSITY AREAS.
05:49:46PM AND PROTECT DENSITY OF SINGLE-FAMILY USE.
05:49:51PM THIS IS A EXTREME LOT SPLIT BECAUSE 40 FEET SMALLER THAN THE
05:49:54PM REQUIRED 150 FEET.
05:49:55PM IT IS ONLY 110 FEET.
05:49:58PM ADDITIONALLY, THEY WANT TO SKIP DOWN TWO EUCLIDIAN ZONING
05:50:04PM CATEGORIES.
05:50:04PM I NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE.
05:50:05PM THEY ARE ASKING YOU TO GO FROM RS-75, PAST RS-60 TO RS-50
05:50:14PM AND NEED A COMP PLAN AMENDMENT TO CHANGE THE LAND TOO.
05:50:17PM THEY DID ONE HECK OF A WORK-AROUND BY ASKING FOR A PD.
05:50:22PM YOU CAN SEE REMOVE RS-50 AND REPLACE WITH PD.
05:50:27PM PDs ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE USED AS A LOOPHOLE FOR ZONING
05:50:33PM LAW.
05:50:33PM LIMIT THE USE OF PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REZONING.
05:50:35PM THE CODE -- THE CODE MANDATED 1320 FEET ANALYSIS FOUND ONLY
05:50:44PM 9% WITH THE SIZE OF THIS REQUEST.
05:50:46PM STAFF ALSO ANALYZED BOTH SIDES OF ONE BLOCK AND FOUND 57%
05:50:51PM WERE LARGE, THE MAJORITY.
05:50:53PM THEY COULD NOT FIND THE MAJORITY OF SMALL LOTS UNTIL THEY
05:50:57PM ANALYZED ONE SIDE OF ONE BLOCK.
05:50:59PM LEGAL CASES OFTEN REFER TO THE REASONABLE PERSON STANDARD.
05:51:04PM THE REASONABLE PERSON WOULD THINK THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT A
05:51:07PM NEIGHBORHOOD IS ONLY ONE SIDES OF ONE BLOCK.
05:51:09PM SOMEHOW, TWO OF THE THREE EVALUATIONS FOUND THE MAJORITY
05:51:13PM LARGE LOT, STAFF DECIDED THAT THE THREE SMALL LOTS ON ONE
05:51:17PM SIDES OF ONE BLOCK WAS MORE IMPORTANT AND OUTWEIGHED ALL THE
05:51:20PM OTHER DATA EVEN THOUGH NOTHING IN THE CODE TO SUPPORT THAT
05:51:22PM COMPLETELY ILLOGICAL CONCLUSION.
05:51:24PM I WANT TO ASK YOU, IF YOU LOOK AT THIS MAP HERE, ARE YOU
05:51:28PM SAYING IF YOU TAKE YOUR KIDS FOR A BIKE RIDE, THERE IS LIKE
05:51:31PM AN INVISIBLE FORCE FIELD HERE AND HERE AND DRIVE DOWN THE
05:51:35PM STREET AND RIDE BACK AND RIDE BACK AND RIDE BACK.
05:51:39PM WHEN YOU AT THAT DO IT, MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS AND ONLY SEE
05:51:43PM ONE SIDE OF THE BLOCK.
05:51:45PM THAT IS ALL THAT COUNTS.
05:51:46PM THAT IS A NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:51:47PM THAT SOUND LIKE SOMETHING THAT A REASONABLE PERSON WOULD
05:51:50PM BELIEVE?
05:51:53PM THE CODE FOR LOT SPLITS MANDATES THAT 1320 FEET MUST BE USED
05:52:02PM TO DETERMINE THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN AND COMPATIBILITY.
05:52:04PM NOTHING SAYING A BLOCK FACE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT BECAUSE
05:52:06PM THERE IS NO BLOCK FACE.
05:52:07PM BLOCK AVERAGING OF FRONT SETBACKS IS IN THE CODE, BUT IN A
05:52:13PM DIFFERENT SECTION ONLY FOR FRONT SETBACKS IN EAST TAMPA AND
05:52:16PM WEST TAMPA OVERLAYS.
05:52:18PM IT IS COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT TO THIS.
05:52:20PM I UNDERSTAND ALL NEIGHBORHOODS CAN'T BE THE SAME AND YOU
05:52:23PM CAN'T ALWAYS GO 13 TO 20 FEET.
05:52:26PM THEY MUST GET US AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE.
05:52:28PM THE FINDING OF MAJORITY LARGE LOT CARRIES MORE WEIGHT THAN
05:52:33PM OPTIONAL, NONSANCTIONED EVALERIE HORTON-RAKES SITUATIONS.
05:52:38PM HERE IS COMPETENT SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE.
05:52:41PM IN 2012, AN ATTEMPTED LOT SPLIT OF THE LOT CADDY CORNER OF
05:52:47PM THIS ONE.
05:52:47PM THE ONLY OTHER ATTEMPT MADE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOODS.
05:52:50PM 2012, ABBYE FEELEY FUNDS IT INCONSISTENT.
05:52:53PM AND CITY COUNCIL, INCLUDING COUNCILMAN MIRANDA, VOTED IT
05:52:56PM DOWN.
05:52:56PM NO SMALL LOT HAS BEEN DEVELOPED IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD SINCE
05:53:00PM THE 1950s.
05:53:01PM YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE MY WORD FOR IT.
05:53:03PM YOU CAN LISTEN WHAT ABBYE FEELEY HAD TO SAY.
05:53:06PM ON THE FIRST PAGE OF HER REPORT IN THE PLANS SHE FOUND
05:53:11PM INCONSISTENT, THEY WERE ASKING FOR 69-AND-A-HALF-FOOT LOTS.
05:53:14PM THAT SON-IN-LAW FIVE-AND-A-HALF FEET SHORT OF WHAT IS
05:53:19PM REQUIRED.
05:53:19PM THIS IS 20 AND SHE SAID NO.
05:53:20PM THIS IS 20 FEET OF THE REQUIREMENT.
05:53:23PM ONLY 55-FOOT LOTS.
05:53:25PM TODAY'S REQUESTED LOT IS -- OKAY.
05:53:33PM I WANTS TO YOU LOOK AT THIS PAGE HERE.
05:53:35PM SORRY.
05:53:35PM LET'S COMPARE THE DATA.
05:53:37PM THE LARGEST SAMPLE ONLY FOUND 9% OF THE LOTS WERE LESS THAN
05:53:42PM 60 FEET WHICH IS WHAT THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING.
05:53:44PM 30% ARE LESS THAN 75 FEET.
05:53:48PM AS MISS FEELEY'S LARGEST SEGMENT, 38% IS LESS THAN 75 FEET
05:53:56PM WHICH IS MORE THAN WHAT WE ARE ASKING FOR TODAY AND SHE
05:53:58PM COUNT IT INCONSISTENT BECAUSE THE MAJORITY DETERMINES OF
05:54:03PM CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:54:04PM AND ROUGHLY THE SAME BUT MISS FEELEY IT INCONSISTENT BECAUSE
05:54:11PM THE MAJORITY RULES.
05:54:12PM SMALL LOTS.
05:54:13PM THE MAJORITY IS LARGE LOTS.
05:54:15PM THE STAFF'S ANALYSIS OF BLOCK FACE 237 OF THE WITH UNBLOCK
05:54:20PM OF CAMERON ON BOTH SIDES FOUND THAT THE MAJORITY OF -- THAT
05:54:24PM 67 -- OH, SHOOT.
05:54:25PM 57% WERE LARGE.
05:54:35PM ABBYE FOUND DEFINITELY THE SAME THING.
05:54:38PM ON THE BLOCK FACE ALONE IS THE ONLY PLACE THAT ABBYE FOUND
05:54:42PM THAT THE SMALL LOTS WERE IN THE MAJORITY.
05:54:44PM AND EVEN THOUGH SHE FOUND THAT, SHE STILL CONCLUDED IT WAS
05:54:47PM INCONSISTENT.
05:54:48PM I AM GOING TO READ FROM HER REPORT.
05:54:51PM BLOCK 25 CONTAINS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND TWO LOTS OF LESS
05:54:56PM THAN 75 FEET.
05:54:57PM THAT IS ONLY THREE LOTS.
05:54:59PM THREE LOTS.
05:55:00PM THE STRUCTURES ON THOSE LOTS WERE CONSTRUCTED IN 1950 AND
05:55:05PM '58.
05:55:06PM BASED ON THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING
05:55:08PM PROPERTIES THE MAJORITY OF THE LOTS ARE TO THE
05:55:13PM EXISTING RS-75 AND CREATION OF TWO LOTS ON A PD IS
05:55:17PM INCONSISTENT.
05:55:17PM FURTHERMORE, FOR THIS AREA, THERE HAS OPINION NO OTHER PDs
05:55:22PM TO ESTABLISH LOTS OF 75 FEET.
05:55:25PM THOSE STRUCTURES EXISTING ON LOTS OF 75 FEET WERE LEGAL
05:55:29PM PRIOR TO THE ZONING CONFORMANCE AND THE CITY OF ZONING IN
05:55:34PM 1956.
05:55:34PM THE PREDOMINANT PATTERN FOR THE SURROUNDING AREA IS
05:55:37PM DESCRIBED -- AS DESCRIBED IS CONSISTENT WITH RS-75.
05:55:40PM THERE ARE LOTS WITH LESS THAN 75, BUT THEY WERE PLOTTED
05:55:44PM BEFORE 1987 AND 1956.
05:55:47PM THEY WERE NOT CREATED THROUGH A REZONING OR A PD.
05:55:51PM PURSUANT TO THE ANALYSIS OF THE SURROUNDING AREAS, THE
05:55:55PM PREDOMINANT DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA IS
05:55:58PM CONFORMING TO THE R-75 WITH THE LOT WIDTH OF 57 OR GREATER.
05:56:04PM PROPOSED LOT SPLIT OF THE CREATION OF TWO LOTS IS
05:56:07PM INCONSISTENT.
05:56:07PM THIS IS WHAT SHE SAID, THE PREDOMINANT IS 75 OR MORE.
05:56:12PM 58% HAD 75 FEET.
05:56:15PM NO REZONING IN THE AREA THAT HAS ANY OTHER LOTS.
05:56:17PM SO EVERYTHING YOU SAW THERE WAS 1950, '55 AND '51.
05:56:23PM REPRESENT THE FIRST SPLIT IN THE AREA.
05:56:25PM NO PDs.
05:56:27PM NO RS-75s AND NOTHING OF ZONING CONFORMANCE.
05:56:32PM THE PATTERN IS CONSISTENT WITH ZONING AND STAFF FOUND THE
05:56:36PM REQUEST INCONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN
05:56:39PM OF THE AN AREA.
05:56:39PM I SEEK TO IMPLORE THE SAME STANDARD OF REVIEW ON EACH AND
05:56:43PM EVERY CASE.
05:56:43PM THE REDS OUTWEIGHED THE BLUES SO THAT IS WHAT I PRESENT TO
05:56:47PM YOU.
05:56:47PM I COULDN'T SAY IT BETTER MYSELF.
05:56:50PM YEARS AGO, I HAD A DISPUTE WITH MISS FEELEY ABOUT TWO LOTS
05:56:54PM SIX FEET SHORT OF THE REQUIREMENTS.
05:56:55PM I NEVER FORGET WHAT SHE SAID.
05:56:57PM WE MUST QUANTIFY THINGS.
05:56:58PM IF WE DON'T QUANTIFY, IT BECOMES SUGGESTIVE AND WE HAVE
05:57:02PM CHAOS.
05:57:02PM AND THAT IS WHAT HAS HAPPENED HERE.
05:57:04PM THERE IS NO QUANTIFICATION OF THE DATA.
05:57:07PM THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CODE ARE NOT BEING CONSIDERED.
05:57:10PM YOU HAVE A SUBJECTIVE REPORT INSTEAD OF AN ANALYTICAL
05:57:13PM REPORT.
05:57:14PM AND YOU HAVE CHAOS.
05:57:15PM THANK YOU.
05:57:16PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
05:57:19PM PLEASE STAND AND RAISE YOUR HAND YOU HAVE TWO EXTRA MINUTES.
05:57:59PM >> THANK YOU, COUNCILMEMBERS, MY NAME IS PETER KING.
05:58:01PM I AM A RESIDENT OF PALMA CEIA WEST SINCE 2008, THE LAST 14
05:58:06PM YEARS.
05:58:06PM I AM THE NEW KID ON THE BLOCK.
05:58:08PM THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN THERE A LOT
05:58:11PM LONGER THAN I HAVE, BUT I HAVE BECOME VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE
05:58:15PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:58:15PM I WALK IT DAILY WITH MY DOG, ANNIE.
05:58:17PM WE ARE VERY PLEASED WITH THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD
05:58:20PM AS IT EXISTS RIGHT NOW.
05:58:21PM SO I'M HERE TO SPEAK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE CHARACTER OF THE
05:58:25PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:58:25PM I AM ALSO GOING TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MY EXPECTANCY
05:58:29PM WHEN I MOVED INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:58:30PM FIRST OF ALL, I WANT TO REFER BACK TO THE LOT PATTERN FOR
05:58:38PM REZONING AND I WILL REITERATE A COUPLE OF POINTS.
05:58:41PM MR. McNABB TALKED OF BLUE VERSUS RED.
05:58:45PM THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF PARCELS IN THIS LOT PATTERN IS 214.
05:58:50PM YOU SEE THAT RIGHT THERE.
05:58:52PM THE LOTS BELOW 60 FEET FROM 21.
05:58:55PM SO THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:58:59PM ONE OF THE THINGS THAT DREW ME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN I
05:59:01PM WAS SHOPPING FOR PROPERTY THERE IN 2006 WAS THE PREDOMINANT
05:59:05PM SIZE OF THE LOTS EXCEEDED, YOU KNOW, 65, 70, 75 FEET.
05:59:11PM I LIKE THE LARGER LOTS.
05:59:13PM NICE TREES ON THEM.
05:59:14PM A NICE CANOPY OF OAKS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:59:17PM WE ARE STARTING TO LOSE SOME OF THOSE WHICH IS REGRETTABLE,
05:59:21PM BUT A LOT OF THAT BECAUSE OF THE DEVELOPMENT THAT IS GOING
05:59:23PM ON IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:59:24PM WE ARE TRYING TO RETAIN THAT CHARACTER.
05:59:26PM I AM GOING TO SHOW YOU TWO THINGS.
05:59:29PM THIS IS MY LOT HERE.
05:59:30PM I LIVE ON SAN OBISPO.
05:59:34PM I HAVE A 100 X 100 LOT.
05:59:36PM I HAVE FOUR CHILDREN.
05:59:37PM WE NEEDED SPACE TO BUILD A BIGGER HOUSE.
05:59:40PM WE KNOCKED DOWN THE HOUSE THERE.
05:59:41PM WE BUILT A 3840-SQUARE-FOOT HOME.
05:59:45PM WE LOVE IT.
05:59:46PM WE LOVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
05:59:47PM WE LOVE OUR NEIGHBORS NEIGHBORS.
05:59:49PM THE LOT ISSUE HERE IS 110 FEET.
05:59:52PM SO ABOUT TEN FEET LARGER THAN OURS.
05:59:54PM UP WANT TO SHOW YOU SOME PICTURES OF WHAT A --
06:00:02PM 3840-SQUARE-FOOT HOUSE LOOKS LIKE ON A 100-FOOT LOT.
06:00:04PM THIS IS MY BACK YARD.
06:00:06PM THE TREE LINE HERE -- ALL THESE BIRDS AND ALL THESE PALMS
06:00:11PM BACK HERE, THAT IS ON THE FENCE LINE.
06:00:13PM THE EDGE OF THE POOL -- THERE IS ANNIE, BY THE WAY.
06:00:16PM ON THE -- ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE POOL, I HAVE FOUR FEET TO
06:00:21PM THE FENCE.
06:00:21PM I HAVE A 12-FOOT POOL.
06:00:23PM IT IS NOT LARGE.
06:00:24PM WE HAVE MORE OR LESS TAKEN A 3840-SQUARE-FOOT HOUSE AND JAM
06:00:30PM IT INTO A 100-FOOT LOT, OKAY.
06:00:33PM YOU CAN SEE HERE ANOTHER PHOTO FROM A DIFFERENT ANGLE SHOWS
06:00:36PM THE FENCE LINE IN THE BACK.
06:00:38PM WE DID OBTAIN AN ADMINISTRATIVE VARIANCE OF FIVE PEOPLE ON
06:00:43PM THE SAN OBISPO SIDE.
06:00:48PM WE WERE GRANTED THAT AND THIS IS WHERE THE GARAGE EXTENDS.
06:00:52PM WE DON'T HAVE ANY MORE ROOM ON THE OUTSIDE.
06:00:54PM AT THE WOULD NEED A SIGNIFICANT VARIANCE TO DO THAT.
06:00:57PM THIS IS THE FRONT OF THE HOME.
06:00:59PM A 25-FOOT SETBACK.
06:01:01PM THAT IS CODE.
06:01:02PM WE FILLED IT UP.
06:01:03PM ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE HOUSE OVER HERE, WE HAVE THE
06:01:06PM SEVEN-FOOT SETBACK.
06:01:07PM SO WE HAVE USED EVERY AVAILABLE FOOT OF THE LOT TO BUILD A
06:01:12PM 3840-SQUARE-FOOT HOME ON IT.
06:01:16PM THIS IS THE SHOT FROM THE FRONT -- DOWN THE FRONT.
06:01:19PM SO -- AND I DO HAVE COPIES OF THESE WHICH I WOULD LIKE -- I
06:01:24PM WILL GIVE YOU THESE IN A SECONDS.
06:01:25PM MY POINT IS, WHAT I AM HEARING FROM THE PETITIONER IS
06:01:29PM PLANNED FOR 56 OR 5700-SQUARE-FOOT HOMES.
06:01:33PM THAT IS HALF, AGAIN, BIGGER THAN MY HOME ON LOTS THAT ARE
06:01:37PM HALF THE SIZE.
06:01:38PM SO WHEN WE ARE TALKING OF CHARACTER OF A NEIGHBORHOOD, WE
06:01:43PM ARE TALKING A LOT ABOUT PROPORTIONALITY.
06:01:45PM WHAT THE NEIGHBORHOOD LOOKS LIKE.
06:01:46PM WHAT IT FEELS LIKE.
06:01:47PM WHAT WE ARE GOING TO GET ARE TWO DON CESARS PLOPPED RIGHT IN
06:01:55PM THIS LITTLE BLOCK
06:01:56PM I WAS VERY INTERESTED TO HEAR THE PETITIONER AS WELL AS THE
06:02:01PM STAFF FOCUS YOUR ATTENTION ON THE ONE BLOCK RIGHT HERE.
06:02:05PM THAT IS THEIR ARGUMENT.
06:02:06PM THAT IT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THIS ONE LITTLE BLOCK HERE.
06:02:09PM WHAT THEY DON'T WANT TO YOU LOOK AT IS THE ENTIRE LOT
06:02:12PM PATTERN.
06:02:13PM AND YOU CAN SEE ALL THE RED.
06:02:15PM THERE ARE TONS OF IT.
06:02:17PM 90-PLUS PERCENT OF THOSE LOTS ARE -- ARE NOT BLUE.
06:02:22PM SO WE ARE TRYING TO AVOID MORE BLUE LOTS, BECAUSE IT
06:02:26PM DETRACTS FROM THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:02:28PM .DETRACTS FROM THE BEAUTY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND GOING TO
06:02:31PM RESULTS IN FEWER TREES.
06:02:32PM IT WILL RESULT IN MORE TRAFFIC.
06:02:34PM I HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT NINE PARKING SPACES FOR TWO HOMES.
06:02:39PM THAT SEEMS EXCESSIVE TO ME, BUT THAT IS THEIR PLAN.
06:02:42PM I BOUGHT MY LOT, I BOUGHT IT BECAUSE I LIKE THE SIZE OF THE
06:02:46PM LOTS.
06:02:46PM IF YOU ARE GOING TO AWARD THIS PETITION, WHAT'S NEXT.
06:02:51PM WHERE ARE WE GOING NEXT?
06:02:53PM BEACH PARK?
06:02:54PM SUNSET PARK?
06:02:56PM HYDE PARK?
06:02:58PM GRAY GABLES?
06:02:59PM THAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE IF YOU GRANT THIS ONE, HOW
06:03:02PM ARE YOU GOING TO DENY THE NEXT ONE.
06:03:04PM THANK YOU.
06:03:05PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:03:05PM I LIVE IN THE 4,000 BLOCK OF SAN CARLOS.
06:03:23PM MY BIG CONCERN IS ACTUALLY YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE THIS
06:03:27PM PLANNED DEVELOPMENT UP 11,000 SQUARE FOOT OF HOME, MULTIPLE
06:03:32PM DRIVEWAYS.
06:03:32PM MULTIPLE HARD SURFACES.
06:03:35PM UP PERVIOUS.
06:03:36PM WE IN SOUTH TAMPA -- AND THE CITY IS AWARE OF THIS -- HAS
06:03:41PM FOREVER HAD FLOODING.
06:03:42PM A LOW-LYING LOW GRADE AREA.
06:03:45PM NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT.
06:03:46PM THE LOWER THE GRADE, THE SLOWER THE WATER RUNOFF.
06:03:50PM HIGHER THE GRADE, THE FASTER THE WATER RUNOFF.
06:03:53PM NOTHING WE CAN TO DO STOP IT FROM FLOODING.
06:03:56PM THIS DEVELOPMENT WILL GIVE HARD SURFACES, IMPREFERIOUS AND
06:04:01PM NOWHERE FOR THE WATER TO GO.
06:04:02PM THIS MY HOUSE, THE INTERSECTION OF SAN CARLOS AND GRADY AND
06:04:07PM THE FLOODING THAT TAKES PLACE WITH NORMAL EVACUATION ZONE
06:04:10PM RAINS.
06:04:11PM IMAGINE MORE PRECEDENTS OF ALL THIS PLANS DEVELOPMENT WITH
06:04:14PM LESS PERVIOUS SURFACES WITH NOWHERE FOR THE WITH A YOU ARE
06:04:18PM TO GO.
06:04:18PM WE WILL FLOOD SOUTH TAMPA ALREADY.
06:04:21PM ALREADY THE HOUSES -- MINE BUILT IN 1954.
06:04:25PM HAVE ISSUE WITH FLOODING WHEN WE HAVE THE HEAVY RAINS.
06:04:28PM MAKE IT MUCH WORSE AND EXACERBATES THE SITUATION.
06:04:32PM THE CITY KNOW SOUTH TAMPA FLOODS.
06:04:35PM THIS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT OF 11,000-SQUARE-FOOT HOUSING WITH
06:04:39PM SIDEWALKS AND STREETS.
06:04:40PM NO PLACE FOR THE WATER TO GO.
06:04:42PM YOU WILL FLOOD US OUT.
06:04:43PM WE CAN'T HAVE THIS CONTINUE.
06:04:45PM MY SECONDS ISSUE IS SAN CARLOS HAS NO SIDEWALKS.
06:04:51PM THE CITY SAT ONE TIME SAID DEVELOPERS WHEN THEY BULLDOZE AND
06:04:54PM PUT UP NEW HOUSES, THEY WILL PUT IN SIDEWALKS.
06:04:57PM THAT HAVEN'T HAPPENED.
06:05:00PM I DON'T KNOW WHY.
06:05:01PM SOME HAVE AND SOME HAVE PENTAGON HAVEN'T.
06:05:04PM WE HAVE TO WALK DOWN THE STREET.
06:05:06PM NINE PARKING SPOTS.
06:05:09PM LIMITED NUMBER CARS.
06:05:11PM BETWEEN SAN MARCOS AND SAN CARLOS.
06:05:17PM PLANT HIGH, THEY HAD TO PUT A STOP SIGN AT A CHURCH IN SAN
06:05:21PM CARLOS JUST TO STOP THE TRAFFIC ENOUGH TO HAVE THE CHILDREN
06:05:25PM SAFELY GET TO SCHOOL.
06:05:26PM WE NEED A SAFE NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:05:28PM A NONFLOODING NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:05:29PM IF THE CITY APPROVES THIS, WE WON'T HAVE THIS.
06:05:32PM THANK YOU.
06:05:33PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:05:36PM NEXT, PLEASE.
06:05:38PM GOOD EVENING, MR. CHAIRMAN, COUNCILMEMBERS.
06:05:42PM BOB ABBERGER, AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN.
06:05:47PM GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN AND SOME NEW FACES.
06:05:50PM I SERVE AS THE ZONING CHAIR FOR DAVIS ISLAND CIVIC
06:05:54PM ASSOCIATION AND I'M HERE WITH THE AUTHORITY OF THE BOARD TO
06:05:57PM LENDS OUR VOICE IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ZONING CHANGES TO
06:06:03PM A PD.
06:06:03PM I DON'T LEND MY VOICE LIGHTLY TO THESE MATTERS.
06:06:06PM I REVIEWED THE FILE EXTENSIVELY AND I DID THE HOMEWORK.
06:06:11PM AND I WILL TELL YOU, I THINK THE GOOD NEWS HERE THAT YOU
06:06:14PM HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE THE FRESH LOOK AT THIS.
06:06:16PM I FOUND WHEN I DID THE DEEP HOMEWORK THAT THE EVIDENCE TO
06:06:21PM FIND IT INCONSISTENT WAS COMPELLING.
06:06:23PM AND THE EVIDENCE IN SUPPORT BASICALLY WAS A CLOISTER OF
06:06:28PM HISTORICAL BAD PLANS AND BAD PRECEDENT REALLY ONLY TWO
06:06:37PM CONSIDERATIONS I WILL ASK YOU TO LEAN UPON AND THE FIRST
06:06:41PM REALLY IS THE PANDORA'S BOX SETTING PRECEDENT.
06:06:45PM AGAIN, ALL OF THE OTHER 50s AND SUB ARE FROM THE 1950s
06:06:49PM GRANDFATHERED IN.
06:06:50PM THERE ARE A LOT OF NEIGHBORHOODS WHERE THEY ARE GOING TO BE
06:06:54PM CHOMPING AT THE BIT TO DO EXACTLY THIS.
06:06:58PM THE SECOND THING AND THE OTHER SPEAKERS HAVE SPOKEN WELL TO
06:07:02PM IT.
06:07:02PM BUT I HEARD BACK IN -- WHAT WAS IT, 2012, I HAD A CHANCE TO
06:07:07PM CHAIR THE ECONOMIC COMPETITIVENESS TASK FORCE FOR MAYOR
06:07:11PM BUCKHORN AND YOU ALL.
06:07:12PM ONE OF THE THINGS WE TRIED TO GET IN THAT REPORT AND DID NOT
06:07:15PM ACHIEVE THE CONCEPT THAT THE LAND USE CODE WILL INNOCENT
06:07:21PM WHERE IT BELONGS AND DISINCENT IT WHERE IT IS NOT.
06:07:24PM WHERE THERE IS ROADWAY CAPACITY, TRANSIT OR PLANS FOR
06:07:28PM ROADWAY CAPACITY IN TRANSIT.
06:07:30PM IT DOES NOT BELONG AS EFFECTIVELY -- THIS REQUEST IS
06:07:36PM REQUESTING A DENSITY CREDIT.
06:07:39PM AND NOT IN THE AREA OF PRIMARY EVACUATION ROUTES AND LOW
06:07:44PM LYING LANDS.
06:07:44PM TONIGHT YOU HAVE THESE FOLKS APPEARING TO YOU TO PROTECT THE
06:07:48PM CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHICH THEY INVESTED IN.
06:07:50PM AND I'M HERE TO APPEAL TO YOU TO NOT SET PRECEDENT THAT SOON

06:08:40PM NEXT, PLEASE.
06:08:41PM MY NAME IS PAM CANELA.
06:08:47PM I OPPOSE THE REZONING OF 4111 SAN CARLOS.
06:08:51PM MOST OF THE POLICIES, OBJECTIVES AND GOALS USED BY STAFF TO
06:08:57PM SUPPORT THIS DEVELOPMENTS ARE JUST NUMBERS.
06:08:58PM WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW IS THAT OUR TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE
06:09:02PM PLAN, OUR CITY ORDINANCE, AND FLORIDA STATUTES FIRST
06:09:07PM PRIORITY IN ITS GOALS, POLICIES AND OBJECTIVE IS TO PROTECT
06:09:12PM THE SAFETY AND WELFARE AND THE QUALITIES OF LIFE OF THE
06:09:17PM RESIDENTS OF ITS NEIGHBORHOODS.
06:09:19PM ALSO, TO PROMOTE RESPONSIBLE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN
06:09:26PM KEEPING WITH THE INTEGRITY AND THE CHARACTER OF THE
06:09:29PM NEIGHBORHOODS.
06:09:29PM THIS PROPOSAL FOR REZONING DOES NONE OF THAT.
06:09:33PM IT IS NOT ABOUT RESPONSIBLE DEVELOPMENT.
06:09:38PM IT'S ABOUT THE DEVELOPER MAXIMIZING HIS PROFITS
06:09:43PM THIS IS NO THE A HARDSHIP.
06:09:45PM THE CURRENT ZONING ALLOWS HIM TO BUILD WITH PROFIT.
06:09:48PM AS THE OTHER DEVELOPER HAVE DONE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:09:51PM IT IS OUR RIGHT TO EXPECT THE INTEGRITY AND CHARACTER OF OUR
06:09:59PM NEIGHBORHOOD TO REMAIN WITHOUT CHANGE.
06:10:00PM IT IS OUR RIGHT TO EXPECT OUR CITY TO ENFORCE AND PROTECT
06:10:05PM OUR NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WE HAVE CHOSEN TO LIVE IN BECAUSE
06:10:12PM THESE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES ARE WRITTEN IN OUR
06:10:16PM TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, OUR CITY OF TAMPA ORDINANCE AND
06:10:20PM OUR FLORIDA STATUTES.
06:10:22PM THANK YOU.
06:10:23PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:10:26PM NEXT, PLEASE.
06:10:28PM >> HI, CINDY FARIAS.
06:10:31PM I LIVE IN THE PALMA CEIA NEIGHBORHOOD FOR 23 YEARS.
06:10:35PM ONE OF THE REASONS I BOUGHT IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD IS BECAUSE
06:10:38PM OF THE LOT SIZES.
06:10:38PM I LIVE ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE LOT THAT THE OWNER IS
06:10:41PM TRYING TO SPLIT.
06:10:42PM TEN YEARS AGO, I CAME BEFORE THE COUNCIL TO UPHOLD THE COMP
06:10:46PM PLAN FOR MY NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE ANOTHER ACROSS THE STREET
06:10:49PM NEIGHBOR WANTED TO SPLIT THAT LOT.
06:10:51PM AT THAT TIME ROAR THE COUNCIL UPHELD THE COMP PLAN AND DID
06:10:55PM NOT ALLOW THE LOT TO BE SPLIT.
06:10:57PM IN FACT, I KNOW OF NO OTHER LOT IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD THAT HAS
06:11:02PM EVER BEEN DIVIDED SINCE -- SINCE THAT NIGHT 2012.
06:11:06PM MY OBSERVANCE THAT ONCE THIS IS ALLOWED IT SETS A PRECEDENCE
06:11:11PM FOR OTHERS TO FOLLOW SUIT.
06:11:13PM THE COMP PLAN HAS NOT CHANGED.
06:11:15PM THE COMP PLAN POLICIES REQUIRE AND, I QUOTE, CAREFUL
06:11:20PM CONSIDERATION OF ADVERSE IMPACTS TO SURROUNDING
06:11:24PM NEIGHBORHOODS.
06:11:25PM IT STATES THAT THE CITY SHOULD PROTECT LOW DENSITY
06:11:31PM SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AREAS INCLUDING DENSITY
06:11:33PM CHARACTERISTICS AND MAINTAIN THE CURRENT DENSITY OF SINGLE
06:11:37PM AREAS.
06:11:37PM THIS PROJECT INFRINGES UPON MULTIPLE COMP PLAN LU POLICIES.
06:11:44PM SPLITTING THIS LOT ALLOWS FOR DOUBLING THE HOUSING.
06:11:47PM IF THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN, OUR LOW DENSITY, SINGLE-FAMILY
06:11:52PM RESIDENTIAL AREA WILL NO LONGER BE LOW DENSITY.
06:11:54PM AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW, THE PLANS FOR THE NEW HOMES ARE FOR
06:12:00PM TWO HOUSE THAT ARE EACH OVER 57,000 -- 55,570 SQUARE FEET.
06:12:10PM THEY HAVE FOUR, MAYBE FIVE DRIVEWAYS EXITING ON TO THE MAIN
06:12:16PM ROAD.
06:12:16PM OUR NEIGHBORHOOD HAS ONLY A FEW SIDEWALKS.
06:12:18PM RIGHT NOW WHEN PEOPLE WALK AND BICYCLE WITH THEIR FAMILIES
06:12:22PM DOWN THE STREET, THEY USE THE MAIN ROAD.
06:12:24PM IF THIS TRENDS IS ALLOWED TO START, THE SAFETY OF OUR
06:12:28PM FAMILIES IS AT STAKE.
06:12:31PM THE INTEGRITY OF OUR NEIGHBORHOODS WILL BE COMPROMISED.
06:12:34PM ONE OF THE REASONS YOU DO THE WORK YOU DO IS TO PROTECT OUR
06:12:39PM NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE CITY OF TAMPA.
06:12:40PM I KNOW THAT OUR FINE CITY IS CHANGE IN MANY WAYS.
06:12:44PM WITH THESE CHANGES, NEW RULES AND REGULATIONS WILL BE MADE.
06:12:47PM UNTIL THEN, THE RULES WHICH HAVE ALREADY BEEN ESTABLISHED
06:12:52PM SHOULD BE MAINTAINED.
06:12:53PM THEREFORE, I AM ASKING YOU TO UPHOLD THE COMP PLAN THAT IS
06:12:57PM IN EFFECT TODAY AND DENY THE REZONING OF THE PROPERTY.
06:13:01PM THANK YOU.
06:13:02PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:13:03PM GOOD EVENING, MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL.
06:13:11PM THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK THIS EVENING.
06:13:13PM MY NAME IS ALAN MASON.
06:13:16PM I LIVE IN THE PALMA CEIA WEST NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:13:20PM MY WIFE AND I MOVED TO THE TAMPA BAY AREA FOR A CAREER
06:13:24PM OPPORTUNITY.
06:13:24PM WE LOOKED AT HOMES IN SPARTANBURG, CLEARWATER, PALM HARBOR,
06:13:29PM RIVERVIEW AND OTHER PLACES IN HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY AND TAMPA.
06:13:31PM WE ALWAYS CAME BACK TO OUR FIRST CHOICE, SOUTH TAMPA.
06:13:34PM BEAUTIFUL NEIGHBORHOODS.
06:13:37PM GREAT SCHOOLS ALL CLOSE BY.
06:13:38PM OUTSTANDING WALKING, RUNNING AND BIKING NEIGHBORHOODS WITH
06:13:42PM CONVENIENT ACCESS TO SHOPPING, DOWNTOWN AMENITIES,
06:13:46PM RECREATION, THE AIRPORT AND ALL OF THIS CENTRALLY LOCATED TO
06:13:52PM THE REST OF THE TAMPA BAY REGION.
06:13:54PM THAT IS WHY WE BOUGHT OUR NEW HOME IN SOUTH TAMPA.
06:13:56PM I WALK AND RUN IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD DAILY.
06:13:59PM I HAVE BEEN AMAZED AT THE NUMBER OF NEW HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN
06:14:04PM BUILT IN SOUTH TAMPA OVER THE PAST SIX OR SEVEN YEARS,
06:14:07PM ALMOST EVERY ONE ON AN EXISTING LOT, AS FAR AS I COULD TELL.
06:14:10PM CONTINUING AT A RAPID PACE TO THIS DAY.
06:14:13PM AND SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCING PROPERTY VALUES AND THE TAX
06:14:19PM BREAK.
06:14:19PM THE PRECEDENT THAT IS IN SOUTH TAMPA APPEARS TO BE
06:14:23PM SUCCESSFUL AND WHY CHANGE WHAT IS WORKING AND WHY DO IT BY
06:14:27PM SETTING A NEW PRECEDENT THAT WILL SURELY LEAD TO MORE
06:14:30PM REQUESTS TO SPLIT LOTS IN THE FUTURE.
06:14:32PM WHY RISK CHANGING THE CHARACTER OF OUR NEIGHBORHOODS
06:14:35PM POTENTIALLY CUTTING DOWN TREES, INCREASING TRAFFIC,
06:14:40PM OVERLOADING EXISTING SCHOOLS CHANGING THE DENSITY, IDENTIFY
06:14:45PM AND LIVABILITY OF NEIGHBORHOODS THAT AFFECTS THE TAMPA COMP
06:14:48PM PLAN.
06:14:48PM I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THANK YOU TO COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO AND
06:14:52PM CARLSON FOR VOTING AGAINST THE ZONING CHANGE AT THE JUNE
06:14:55PM MEETING.
06:14:55PM I RESPECTFULLY ASK THE REST OF OUR COUNCILMEMBERS TO
06:14:59PM RECONSIDER YOUR VOTES TO APPROVE THIS SPLIT LOT ZONING
06:15:02PM REQUEST TO VOTE UNPRECEDENTED IN THE HISTORY OF THE PALMA
06:15:09PM CEIA WEST NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.

06:15:16PM PLEASE VOTE NO.
06:15:18PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:15:22PM NEXT PLEASE.
06:15:23PM >> I AM HEIDI GUSTAFSON.
06:15:28PM SAN CARLOS STREET DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE
06:15:33PM PROJECT BEING DISCUSSED.
06:15:34PM MY FAMILY AND I HAVE BEEN MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY FOR 100
06:15:37PM YEARS.
06:15:37PM MY GREAT GRANDFATHER WAS A READER IN THE YBOR CITY FACTORY AND
06:15:42PM MY FAMILY SETTLED IN BEACH PARKS IN THE 1940s.
06:15:46PM I'M HERE TO DEFEND THE CURRENT ZONING AT 4111 WEST SAN
06:15:52PM CARLOS.
06:15:52PM I SPENT MY ENTIRE LIFE IN SOUTH TAMPA AND THE PETITION TO
06:15:56PM DIVIDE THIS LOT GREATLY CONCERNS ME.
06:15:57PM MY CHILDREN WAS BORN IN THE D.C. AREA AND DECISION TO RETURN
06:16:01PM HOME TO TAMPA BASED ON THE DESIRE TO RAISE MY CHILDREN.
06:16:06PM THE D.C. AREA AND TRAFFIC CONGESTION AND RESULTING CONCRETE
06:16:09PM AND SAFETY ISSUES THAT COME WITH THAT IS SOMETHING I
06:16:12PM DECIDEDLY DID NOT WANT FOR HIM.
06:16:13PM SOUTH TAMPA'S ZONING IN LARGER LOTS ABUNDANCE OF GREEN SPACE
06:16:18PM AND SHADE, SAFE WALKABLE NEIGHBORHOODS, FREE OF CONGESTION
06:16:22PM AND A TRUE SUBURBAN FEEL.
06:16:24PM DECISION INDUSTRY TOSSING THIS LOT WILL EFFECT THE
06:16:29PM INTEGRITIES OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WAS ESTABLISHED 60
06:16:31PM YEARS AGO.
06:16:32PM ALLOWING 12,000 SQUARE FEET OF LIVING SPACE TO BE BUILT ON A
06:16:35PM LOT NEVER INTENDED AND NEVER ZONED FOR AGGRESSIVE
06:16:39PM DEVELOPMENT.
06:16:39PM UNPRECEDENTED AND UNWANTED DENSITY WILL BE BRING TO PALMA
06:16:44PM CEIA WEST.
06:16:44PM THE ESTABLISHMENTS OF THE COMP PLAN OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD'S
06:16:49PM CHARACTER.
06:16:49PM ADDITIONALLY THE EVER-PRESENT ISSUE OF STORMWATER RUNOFF,
06:16:53PM PROPER DRAINAGE AND FLOODING.
06:16:55PM ONE OF THE CENTRAL REASONS I MOVED TO PALMA CEIA WEST IS THE
06:17:00PM WATER MITIGATION WAS MORE FAVORABLE THAN SUNSET PARK.
06:17:04PM EVEN TO I INVESTED THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN MY CURRENT HOME
06:17:08PM TO MITIGATE FLOODING ISSUES AND STILL HAVE WORK TO DO.
06:17:11PM WILL PERMANENT LEAP COVER LAND DESPERATELY NEEDED FOR WATER
06:17:16PM BE A SOX AND THOSE AFFECTED BY THE MANMADE RUNOFF ARE THE
06:17:20PM NEIGHBORS WITH NEWER BUILDS AND OLDER HOMES.
06:17:25PM TO WORK WITH THE DESIGN GUIDELINES TO MAINTAIN THE NEEDED
06:17:30PM GREEN SPACE FOR THE OVERALL GOOD FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:17:33PM OUR NEIGHBORHOODS WERE ALMOST DEVELOPED 100 YEARS AGO TO
06:17:36PM ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN AN IDENTITY.
06:17:37PM A SUBURBAN OASIS OF SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES OF GREEN SPACES AND
06:17:41PM TREES WHERE NEIGHBORS CAN SHARE COFFEE AND CONVERSATION
06:17:44PM WHILE THEY WALK THEIR DOGS AND WATCH THEIR CHILDREN PLAY.
06:17:47PM WE KNOW THAT TAMPA'S POPULATION IS INCREASING DAILY AND TH
06:17:54PM OPPORTUNITIES TO ALLOW FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS OUR
06:17:57PM NEIGHBORHOODS THAT THOSE BEFORE US SO MUCH TO CREATE.
06:17:59PM I STRONGLY URGE TO YOU VOTE AGAINST THIS PROPOSE READY HE
06:18:03PM ZONING.
06:18:03PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:18:04PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:18:20PM >> HELLO, I AM JOANNE MCNABB. AND I LIVED IN PALMA CEIA
06:18:37PM WEST AND I HAVE BEEN ACTIVE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
06:18:41PM ASSOCIATION -- SORRY, I HAVE EXTRA MINUTES HERE.
06:18:44PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: ARISA CANELLA.
06:18:59PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: PLEASE STAND OR WAVE.
06:19:03PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: GAYE JONES, THANK YOU.
06:19:06PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: TWO EXTRA MINUTES.
06:19:07PM I WILL START AGAIN.
06:19:12PM I LIVED IN PALMA CEIA WEST, AND I HAVE BEEN ACTIVE DELIVERING
06:19:15PM NEWSLETTERS, NOTICES AND WALKING THE NEIGHBORHOOD FOR ALL OF
06:19:19PM THOSE YEARS.
06:19:20PM I AM AN EXPERT ON THE CHARACTER OF OUR NEIGHBORHOODS.
06:19:22PM ON ALL THESE YEARS WE NEVER HAD A REZONING TO DIVIDE A
06:19:27PM PARCEL APPROVED.
06:19:28PM I HAVE ATTENDED HEARINGS FOR DIFFERENT REASONS AND I THANK
06:19:31PM YOU COUNCILMEMBERS FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THE CITY OF TAMPA.
06:19:33PM I WASN'T SURE WE WOULD BE ALLOW TO REFERENCE THE FIRST
06:19:37PM MEETING BUT I HAVE HEARD QUITE A FEW REFERENCES TO IT.
06:19:43PM I ALSO ATTENDED THE FIRST READING OF THIS REQUEST ON JUNE 9
06:19:46PM AND I WANT TO THANK COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO FOR TAKING THE
06:19:50PM TIME TO LOOK AT CITY CODES AND POLICIES ON THE PAPER IN
06:19:53PM FRONT OF YOU TO MAKE HIS INFORMED DECISION TO DENY THIS
06:19:56PM REQUEST FOR REZONING AND HE WAS SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN
06:20:00PM CARLSON.
06:20:00PM THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN.
06:20:01PM THOSE CODES REQUIRE THAT THE COMPLETE CHARACTER OF A
06:20:04PM NEIGHBORHOOD BE CONSIDERED BEFORE REZONING IS GRANTED.
06:20:06PM THAT CHARACTER IS DETERMINED BY GOING OUTS 1320 FEET INTO
06:20:11PM THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:20:12PM NOT JUST BY LOOKING AT THE SUBJECT BLOCK.
06:20:14PM HENCE THE BLOCK COLORED MAP GENERATED BY THE CITY PLANNING
06:20:19PM AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT.
06:20:20PM I DO BELIEVE THAT THE MAJORITY OF COUNCILMEMBERS AT THAT
06:20:23PM FIRST HEARING MISUNDERSTOOD THAT MAP AND THOUGHT THAT BLUE,
06:20:27PM YELLOW AND RED BLOCKS WERE COMPATIBLE WITH THE REZONING
06:20:31PM REQUEST.
06:20:31PM CITY STAFF'S TRANSCRIPT SHOWS THAT MR. HUSSEIN EVEN KIND OF
06:20:36PM SLOUGHED THROUGH A LOOK AT THE MAP AND TOLD YOU ALL THAT HERE
06:20:42PM YOU SEE RED, BLUE, YELLOW AND SEE HOW IT IS ALL COMPATIBLE
06:20:46PM AND DIDN'T DELINEATE THE DIFFERENCE AS WE HAVE BEEN TRYING
06:20:49PM TO TELL YOU THAT THERE IS ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE THAT ARE
06:20:53PM THE BLUE LOTS.
06:20:54PM THE REST ARE ALL LARGER.
06:20:56PM IT IS LESS THAN 10% AND SO THAT IS NOT COMPATIBILITY.
06:21:05PM OKAY.
06:21:06PM AND AM I ALLOWED TO ASK COUNCIL A QUESTION?
06:21:10PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: NO, MA'AM.
06:21:11PM >> OKAY.
06:21:12PM ALL RIGHT.
06:21:13PM SOME OF US MET WITH CITY STAFF, AND THEY TOLD US THAT THE
06:21:19PM TERM "BLOCK FACE" IS NOT IN THE CODE.
06:21:23PM AND ONE STAFFER EVEN SAID THAT THEY STARTED WITH A MICRO
06:21:27PM LOOK AT THE SUBJECT BLOCK.
06:21:29PM AND MOVED OUT FROM THAT.
06:21:31PM WHICH ALSO IS AGAINST CODE.
06:21:33PM YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO LOOK AT THE WHOLE 1320.
06:21:36PM SO I AM JUST REALLY CONCERNED THAT THAT ONE STATEMENT ABOUT
06:21:43PM BLOCK FACE AND IT IS ONLY THE EAST SIDE OF SOUTH CAMERON IS
06:21:49PM WHAT IS DETERMINING THEIR PETITION THAT IT IS CONSISTENT.
06:21:52PM IT JUST -- IT JUST -- IT DOESN'T FIT.
06:21:56PM WHEN THE OTHER TWO STATEMENTS BOTH CONFIRM THAT THERE WERE
06:22:00PM LARGER LOTS ALSO COME COMMENTS FROM THE PETITIONER THAT THE
06:22:07PM LOT SPLIT WAS THE SAME AS THE TWO LOTS THAT IT BACKS UP TO.
06:22:10PM THESE NOR THE SAME.
06:22:12PM THOSE LOTS WERE GRANDFATHERED IN WITH THE 75 FEET ZONING
06:22:16PM WENT IN.
06:22:16PM ONE HAS BEEN WITH A FAMILY FOR THREE GENERATIONS AND A NEW
06:22:20PM HOUSE.
06:22:20PM NOT 5670 SQUARE FEET NOR DOES HAVE HAVE TWO DOUBLE DRIVEWAYS
06:22:28PM AND A CIRCLE DRIVEWAY.
06:22:31PM THE SAME ONE NEXT DOOR.
06:22:33PM IT IS NOT LARGE EITHER.
06:22:35PM THEY ARE CONCERNING AND DO NOT FIT THE CHARACTER OF THE
06:22:38PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:22:38PM THE HOMES IN THIS PROJECT WILL BE MULTIMILLION DOLLAR HOMES
06:22:41PM AND DO NOT HELP WITH THE HOUSING CRISIS IN TAMPA THE
06:22:44PM ORIGINAL PLATTED LOTS, THE MAP THAT IS ON THE SECOND PAGE OF
06:22:50PM THE REVISED FORM FROM THE CITY PLANNERS SHOULDN'T EVEN BE
06:22:54PM CONSIDERED HERE.
06:22:54PM IT IS NOT -- IT IS FROM 100 YEARS AGO.
06:22:57PM IT IS NOT THE WAY THE LOTS ARE BEING USED NOW.
06:23:01PM THE COLOR MAP TELLS YOU HOW THE LOTS ARE BEING USED NOW.
06:23:05PM WE ALSO HAVE CONCERNS FOR FLOODING.
06:23:08PM WE DO NOT HAVE CURBS.
06:23:10PM WATER COLLECTS AND SITS.
06:23:11PM SOME OF THE OUTFLOWS ARE NOT WHERE THE WATER RUNS.
06:23:14PM AS IVY TOLD YOU, SHE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY AT HER HOUSE.
06:23:18PM MY FAMILY HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN MITIGATION
06:23:22PM SINCE WE ARE THE LOW YARD FOR THREE BLOCKS AROUND US.
06:23:24PM DECREASING THE PERCOLATING GROUND BY DIVIDE THIS LOT WILL
06:23:28PM CAUSE MORE FLOODING.
06:23:29PM WE ARE NOT OPPOSED TO A NEW BUILD ON THIS PROPERTY, BUT TWO
06:23:33PM LARGE HOUSES ON TWO SMALLER LOTS WILL CAUSE UNDO HARDSHIP
06:23:37PM WITH REGARD TO FLOODING, INCREASED TRAFFIC IS, MORE
06:23:40PM DRIVEWAYS AND A FEELING OF DENSITY THAT IS NOT IN CHARACTER.
06:23:42PM PLEASE, AGAIN -- EXCUSE ME -- REFER TO THE LEVEL ONE NO
06:23:48PM SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE COMP PLAN.
06:23:49PM THAT IS US.
06:23:50PM THAT IS SOUTH TAMPA THE LETTER FROM THE BUILDER SAID THIS IS
06:23:53PM TO BE DEVELOPED AS A FAMILY MULTIGENERATIONAL HOMESTEAD.
06:23:57PM SQUEEZING TWO HOUSES ON ONE LOT TO MAKE A FAMILY COMPOUND IS
06:24:01PM NOT COMPATIBLE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:24:03PM THE APPLICANT KNEW WHAT THE ZONING WAS WHEN THE PROPERTY WAS
06:24:07PM PURCHASED.
06:24:07PM WE WANT YOU TO PROTECT OUR PROPERTY RIGHTS ALSO.
06:24:10PM THANK YOU.
06:24:11PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:24:12PM >> GOOD EVENING, I AM KATHY DUEFFER.
06:24:24PM I LIVE IN PALMA CEIA WEST FOR 16 YEARS.
06:24:28PM IN SOUTH TAMPA FOR 22 YEARS.
06:24:30PM WE ARE -- WE ARE RETIRED MILITARY FAMILY.
06:24:33PM WE HAVE LIVED ALL OVER THE WORLD.
06:24:35PM WE CHOSE TO LIVE IN SOUTH TAMPA.
06:24:40PM I AM VERY FAMILIAR WITH MY NEIGHBORHOOD AS I WALK IT EVERY
06:24:44PM DAY.
06:24:46PM I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF CHANGES.
06:24:48PM PROGRESS IS EVERYWHERE.
06:24:50PM PROGRESS IS NOT BAD.
06:24:52PM LOT SPLITS LIKE THIS ONE ERODE THE CHARACTER OF OUR
06:24:56PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:24:57PM IT INCREASES TRAFFIC.
06:24:59PM LOSS OF GREEN SPACE.
06:25:02PM THERE IS AN INCREASE WATER RUNOFF.
06:25:06PM THEN AN INCREASE OF FLOODING.
06:25:12PM THE 75-FOOT ZONING NEEDS TO BE IN PLACE FOR EVERYONE.
06:25:15PM WE CHOSE TO BUY A HOME IN SOUTH TAMPA BECAUSE OF THE GREAT
06:25:18PM FEATURES.
06:25:19PM WE HAD OUR GRANDCHILDREN LIVE WITH US FOR MANY YEARS.
06:25:23PM THEY HAD LOTS OF SPACE TO PLAY.
06:25:26PM IT WAS EASY TO WALK OR BIKE TO THE PARK, TO THE SCHOOLS, TO
06:25:31PM THE STORE.
06:25:31PM WE EXPECT THE CHARACTERISTICS AND THE DENSITY OF OUR
06:25:38PM NEIGHBORHOOD TO BE PROTECTED BY THE ZONING ORDINANCE.
06:25:41PM WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXPECT AND PRESERVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD
06:25:47PM THAT WE CHOSE TO LIVE IN.
06:25:49PM OLDER HOMES ARE NOW BEING TORN DOWN.
06:25:53PM THEY ARE BEING REPLACED BY BIGGER HOMES ON THEIR ORIGINAL
06:25:57PM LOT.
06:25:59PM IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO KNOW THE LOTS THAT ARE SMALLER
06:26:05PM THAN 75 FEET ARE GRANDFATHERED IN BECAUSE THEY WERE BOUGHT
06:26:09PM AND BUILT IN THE '50s, BEFORE THE 75-FOOT ZONING.
06:26:15PM THERE ARE VERY FEW OF THEM.
06:26:19PM LET'S -- LET IT STAY THAT WAY.
06:26:23PM FEW -- FEWER, 55.
06:26:30PM IT IS IMPORTANT TO PRESERVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD SPACE.
06:26:35PM IF YOU APPROVE THE SPLIT OF THIS 110-FOOT LOT, IT WILL GO
06:26:41PM AGAINST THE 75-FOOT ZONING.
06:26:45PM IT IS IN PLACE TO PRESERVE OUR CURRENT LEVEL OF LIVING
06:26:53PM SPACE, GREEN SPACE, TRAFFIC FLOW AND SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT.
06:26:55PM PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW A LOT SPLIT.
06:27:02PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
06:27:03PM THE FUTURE OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS NOW IN YOUR HANDS.

06:28:03PM THEY ARE NOT BEING DENIED ANY RIGHTS THAT THEY ARE ENTITLED
06:28:06PM TO.
06:28:06PM THEY ARE ASKING FOR A SPECIAL FAVOR AND EXCEPTION TO THE
06:28:10PM RULES THAT HAVE EXISTED FOR THE PAST 66 YEARS.
06:28:13PM THEY ARE SEEKING REZONING OF THIS LOT FOR FINANCIAL REASONS
06:28:16PM AND NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:28:18PM EVER SINCE I MOVED INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THE HOUSE THAT WAS
06:28:22PM ON THAT LOT WAS IN DISREPAIR.
06:28:26PM I AM TALKING OVERGROWN LANDSCAPING, BOARDED UP WINDOWS,
06:28:29PM ABANDONED CARS ON THE PROPERTY.
06:28:31PM DEBRIS IN THE FRONT PORCH.
06:28:33PM WINDOW AC UNITS BECAUSE THE CENTRAL AC UNIT WAS NOT WORKING.
06:28:37PM I SAY THIS BECAUSE THE OWNER HAD NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO
06:28:41PM LEVEL THE HOUSE THAT WAS ON THE LOT.
06:28:42PM BECAUSE IT WAS BEYOND.
06:28:45PM IT WAS POSSIBLY INHABIT BIBLE.
06:28:48PM IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE AREA THAT THIS BOARD MUST
06:28:51PM CONSIDER IN ORDER TO APPROVE OR DENY THIS REZONING
06:28:54PM CONSISTENCY OF A QUARTER OF AN ACRE OF AN ACRE 1320 FEET
06:29:00PM FROM THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND I BELIEVE IT TOTALS AROUND 214
06:29:05PM HOMES.
06:29:05PM THIS IS IT.
06:29:11PM I HAVE STUDY THIS AREA AND APPEARS TO ME LESS THAN 10% OF
06:29:15PM THE HOME IN THIS SUBJECT AREA HAVE A FRONTAGE OF 55 FEET.
06:29:19PM THAT SUBJECT AREA -- THAT --
06:29:23PM >> CAN YOU TURN THAT AROUND?
06:29:24PM IT IS UPSIDE DOWN.
06:29:26PM >> YES.
06:29:26PM THAT WOULD MEAN THAT OVER 90% OF THE LOTS HAVE A FRONTAGE OF
06:29:32PM OVER 55 FEET.
06:29:33PM WHILE I HAVE NOT STUDIED ENTIRE PALMA CEIA WEST AREA, THE
06:29:37PM PERCENTAGES OF LOTS 55 FEET OR UNDER WILL BE SIGNIFICANTLY
06:29:42PM LESS IN THE ENTIRE HOMEOWNERS AREA.
06:29:44PM THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS OVERWHELMINGLY BIG LOTS
06:29:48PM WITH GREEN SPACE AND MATURE SHADED TREES.
06:29:51PM CADDY CORNER IS 4402 SAN CARLOS AND BIGGER THAN 113 X 139
06:30:01PM AND SUBJECT LOT 110 X 139.
06:30:05PM TEN YEARS AGO THIS COUNCIL VOTED AGAINST THE REZONING OF
06:30:08PM THIS LOT BECAUSE IT WAS NOT CONSISTENT OR COMPATIBLE WITH
06:30:11PM THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:30:11PM AS I MENTIONED THAT LOT WAS A LITTLE BIGGER THAN THE ONE YOU
06:30:17PM ARE CONSIDERING TODAY.
06:30:18PM THAT DENIAL WAS RIGHT THEN AND RIGHT TODAY.
06:30:20PM NOTHING HAS CHANGED.
06:30:21PM I KNOW THIS IS NOT A HEARING ON STORMWATER OR DRAINAGE, I DO
06:30:25PM WANT TO POINT OUT INTO CHANGING THE FRONT FOOTPRINT OF THIS
06:30:28PM LOT WILL UNDOUBTEDLY IMPACT DRAINAGE OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND
06:30:32PM OUR HOMES.
06:30:32PM IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT FROM CONTRACTORS THAT I KNOW
06:30:37PM THAT THE CITY OF TAMPA HAS BEEN DENYING SOME PERMITS DUE TO
06:30:40PM DRAINAGE ISSUES, PARTICULARLY IN SOUTH TAMPA.
06:30:43PM KEEPING GREEN SPACE IS IMPORTANT TO SOUTH TAMPA DUE TO
06:30:46PM FLOODING.
06:30:46PM PLACING TWO HOMES WITH A TOTAL OF FOUR DOUBLE DRIVEWAYS ON
06:30:50PM THIS ONE LOT WILL SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASE THE AMOUNT OF GREEN
06:30:53PM SPACE THIS LOT HAS AND AS IT WAS DESIGNED IN THE 1960s.
06:30:58PM WHILE I KNOW THIS IS NOT A SCHOOL BOARD HEARING, I WANTS TO
06:31:01PM TELL YOU THAT ADDING HOMES TO THE ZONING OF MABRY, COLEMAN
06:31:07PM AND PLATT WILL ALREADY HURT THOSE OVERCROWDED SCHOOLS.
06:31:12PM I KNOW FIRSTHAND BECAUSE I HAVE CHILDREN WHO GO OR HAVE GONE
06:31:16PM TO THOSE SCHOOLS.
06:31:17PM I AM ACTIVE IN THE PARENT-TEACHER ORGANIZATIONS AND OTHER
06:31:20PM BOARDS OF THOSE SCHOOLS AND TELL YOU AT PLATT, FOR EXAMPLE,
06:31:23PM STUDENTS THAT ARRIVE A FEW MINUTES AFTER THE BELL RING ARE
06:31:26PM NOT CONSIDERED TARDY DUE TO THE FACT THAT TEACHERS AND
06:31:29PM ADMINISTRATORS UNDERSTAND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO NAVIGATE THE
06:31:32PM HALLS.
06:31:33PM AT PLANT, A PORTION OF THE LIBRARY IS CLOSED DURING LUNCH TO
06:31:36PM ACCOMMODATE STUDENTS SO THEY CAN EAT.
06:31:38PM THE CAFETERIA IS UNABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THE DIFFERENT
06:31:42PM LUNCHES.
06:31:42PM THE LOT THAT IS BEING CONSIDERED TO BE BUILT ALREADY COMES
06:31:46PM WITH A 15-FOOT EASEMENT BECAUSE IT IS A CORNER LOT.
06:31:49PM SPLIT THIS LOT WILL UNDOUBTEDLY CAUSE AN OBSTRUCTION TO THE
06:31:52PM CARS GOING NORTH ON CAMERON.
06:31:55PM THERE WAS A SKETCH THAT WAS BROUGHT UP HERE THAT SHOWED A
06:31:58PM GIANT CIRCULAR DRIVEWAY.
06:31:59PM CLEARLY CARS WILL HAVE TO BE PARKED THERE.
06:32:02PM BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THIS HOUSE, THIS HOUSE WILL NOT HAVE
06:32:04PM A BACK YARD WHICH MEANS LANDSCAPING.
06:32:06PM CHILDREN PLAYING.
06:32:08PM ANYTHING THAT YOU WOULD TRADITIONALLY DO IN A BACK YARD WILL
06:32:11PM HAVE TO BE DONE IN THE FRONT YARD.
06:32:13PM AGAIN, AS YOU ARE DRIVING NORTH OR SOUTH ON CAMERON, IT IS
06:32:18PM GOING TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ON TO SAN CARLOS.
06:32:21PM AS A RESIDENT AND REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL THAT LIVES AND
06:32:25PM WORKS IN PALMA CEIA WEST, I AM ASKING FOR THIS BOARD TO
06:32:28PM PLEASE DENY THIS REQUEST.
06:32:29PM YOUR DECISION TO GRANT THIS PETITIONER THE RIGHT TO SPLIT
06:32:33PM THIS LOT WILL FOREVER IMPACT PALMA CEIA WEST.
06:32:37PM IT WILL CHANGE WHAT THE FOUNDERS AND CITY PLANNERS DESIGNED
06:32:40PM THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO BE IN THE 1960s.
06:32:43PM I HAVE BEEN SELLING REAL ESTATE IN TAMPA FOR ALMOST 20 YEARS
06:32:46PM AND BUYERS ARE ATTRACTED TO PALMA CEIA WEST BECAUSE OF THE
06:32:49PM SIZE OF THE LOTS.
06:32:50PM THIS BLOCK -- THIS BLOCK OF A FEW HOMES ON CAMERON STREET IS
06:32:54PM NOT DESCRIPTIVE OF WHAT PALMA CEIA WEST IS.
06:32:58PM JUST RECENTLY I REVIEWED AN APPRAISER'S REVIEW OF THE
06:33:02PM PROPERTY ON THAT SAME STREET AND THE APPRAISER NOTED AS
06:33:07PM LEGAL, NONCONFORMING GRANDFATHER USE BECAUSE IT DID NOT
06:33:11PM CONFORM WITH NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:33:12PM I ASK THAT YOU CONSIDER ALL OF PALMA CEIA WEST WHEN MAKING
06:33:15PM YOUR DECISION AND NOT JUST THE BLOCK FACING THE SUBJECT
06:33:18PM PROPERTY.
06:33:18PM THE BLOCK IS NOT SIGNIFICANT OF PALMA CEIA WEST.
06:33:21PM I ALSO UNDERSTAND BY RESEARCH DONE BY ANOTHER NEIGHBORHOOD
06:33:25PM THAT THE CITY OF TAMPA HAS A GROWTH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND
06:33:27PM THAT SOUTH TAMPA IS NOT ONE OF THE AREAS CONSIDERED FOR
06:33:30PM GROWTH IN TERMS OF DEVELOPMENT IN THIS PLAN.
06:33:32PM PLEASE VOTE AGAIN THIS REZONING.
06:33:35PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
06:33:36PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:33:37PM GOOD EVENING, CAESAR FERNANDEZ.
06:33:57PM AND I AM RESIDENT OF THE SOUTH TAMPA NEIGHBORHOOD FOR OVER
06:34:01PM 50 YEARS.
06:34:01PM I LIKE THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, MAINLY FOR THE
06:34:05PM SPACE, THE LARGE LOTS OFFERED.
06:34:06PM I DID NOT FEEL CRAMMED NEXT TO THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR.
06:34:09PM THIS NEIGHBORHOOD DID NOT HAVE THE FEEL OF THE SO COMMON
06:34:14PM SUBDIVISION HAS IT ALL HOMES ARE PAINTED THE SAME AND PACKED
06:34:17PM NEXT TO EACH OTHER WITH LIMITED AREA BETWEEN HOMES.
06:34:20PM THESE LARGER LOTS ALLOWED SPACE FOR MORE LANDSCAPING AND
06:34:24PM TREES AND I AM QUITE CONTENT THAT THE TREES IN MY LOT HAVE A
06:34:28PM 10 TO 15-DEGREE DIFFERENCE OF SHADE AND NO SHADE AREA AND
06:34:31PM ACTING AS A BUFFER AND WIND AND FLYING DEBRIS AND THE
06:34:36PM DETRIMENT EFFECT OF SUNLIGHT.
06:34:39PM LARGEST SPACE ALLOWS FOR MORE ENJOYMENT FOR KIDS AND ADULTS
06:34:44PM ALIKE.
06:34:44PM WHEN I BOUGHT IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD I KNEW NO ATTEMPTS OF
06:34:48PM CHANGING ZONING.
06:34:49PM AND THE BENEFIT OF LEGAL ZONING AND PROPERTY RIGHTS.
06:34:53PM BUYING A HOME FOR ME WAS A LONG-TERM DECISION TO STAY IN
06:34:56PM THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND MAINTAIN WHERE PROTECTIONS EXIST.
06:34:59PM I EXPECT THE REST OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO MAINTAIN THE SAME
06:35:02PM FOR THE QUALITY AND BENEFIT OF ALL WHO LIVE HERE.
06:35:04PM THE DETERIORATION, WEAKENING OF ZONING REGS ALLOW MORE
06:35:09PM UNDESIRABLE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CHARACTER OF THE
06:35:12PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:35:12PM ALLOWING THIS PROPERTY TO BE DIVIDED WILL ALSO INCREASE
06:35:15PM DENSITY TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND SET IMPROPER COURSE FOR THE
06:35:18PM FUTURE.
06:35:18PM THE SOUTH TAMPA AREA HAS BEEN INUNDATED WITH ADDITIONAL
06:35:22PM CONDOS, LARGER HOMES, MULTIFAMILY HOMES ALL ADDING TO THE
06:35:26PM PROBLEMS THAT COME WITH THIS UNMANAGED GROWTH OF INCREASED
06:35:29PM TRAFFIC, STRESS, INCREASED INFRASTRUCTURE, CRIME AND A
06:35:32PM LESSER QUALITY OF LIFE.
06:35:33PM ALLOWING MORE HOMES WILL ALSO REDUCE ENVIRONMENTAL BEN FITS
06:35:38PM BY DECREASING GREEN SPACE FOR PROFFER DRAINAGE IN AN AREA
06:35:41PM THAT IS PRONE TO FREQUENT FLOODING AND NOTHING THAT THE CITY
06:35:44PM HAS DONE WITH THE TAXATION FOR STORMWATER IMPROVEMENT HAS
06:35:47PM IMPROVED THE FLOODING PROBLEM IN SOUTH TAMPA AND WITH THIS
06:35:51PM CONTINUED EXPANSION OF THE FLOODING SITUATION IN SOUTH TAMPA
06:35:54PM WILL NEVER BE REMEDIED.
06:35:55PM THE FLOODING WILL ONLY GET WORSE.
06:35:57PM ALSO, THERE IS THE ISSUE OF OVERCROWDING IN THE SCHOOLS.
06:36:01PM I HEARD FROM NEIGHBORS AND NIECES AND NEPHEWS OF THE
06:36:04PM SITUATION AT PLANT AND COLEMAN WITH OVERFLOWING CLASSROOMS
06:36:08PM AND HALLWAYS.
06:36:09PM THAT IS NOT A PROPER FORM FOR STRESS-FREE EDUCATION.
06:36:12PM ISSUE OF EADVANTAGE SITUATIONS DURING A CRISIS.
06:36:14PM RESIDENTS YOU PACK INTO ONE AREA, THE MORE DIFFICULT IT WILL
06:36:18PM BE TO EVACUATE.
06:36:19PM THIS NEIGHBORHOOD ALREADY HAS PROPER ZONING REGS.
06:36:23PM EVERYBODY WHO BOUGHT HERE KNEW WHAT THEY WERE BUYING.
06:36:26PM NOT UP FOR SOMEONE TO INCREASE PROFIT AND THROW OUT OF THE
06:36:30PM WINDOW THE WONDERFUL CHARACTERISTICS THAT EXIST TO PRO
06:36:33PM PROTECT THE QUALITY OF THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:36:35PM WE URGE TO YOU MAINTAIN THE STANDARD THAT EXISTS FOR THE
06:36:37PM CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE QUALITY OF LIFE IT
06:36:39PM PROVIDES.
06:36:40PM IF YOU ALLOW THIS TO COME TO BE, YOU ARE NOT REPRESENTING
06:36:44PM THE WELL INTENDED RESIDENTS IN THIS AREA.
06:36:47PM I REQUEST THAT YOU OPPOSE THIS ZONING CHANGE.
06:36:50PM THANK YOU.
06:36:51PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:36:52PM >> I HAVE PICTURES.
06:36:54PM I AM NOT SURE HOW THIS MAGIC THING WORKS.
06:36:57PM DO I JUST PUT THEM DOWN THERE.
06:37:01PM HOW DOES IT WORK?
06:37:04PM JUST PUT IT ON THERE.
06:37:06PM >> YES.
06:37:06PM THERE WE GO.
06:37:07PM WE GOT IT UP AND TURN IT --
06:37:13PM >> LAURIE McMAHON.
06:37:15PM I LIVED AT MY PRESENT ADDRESS FOR 35 YEARS WHICH IS THE
06:37:19PM ADJACENT PROPERTY AND THE PROPOSED SEVEN-FOOT SIDES OF THE
06:37:23PM ZONING.
06:37:23PM I LOVE MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND I LOVE MY YARD.
06:37:25PM I ENJOY THE COURT WHERE DOORS, ESPECIALLY MY NEIGHBORHOOD
06:37:28PM ALONG WITH MY BACK YARD.
06:37:29PM I WOULD LIKE TO REFERENCE CHARLIE MIRANDA.
06:37:32PM I SAW HIM ON TV STATING THE CITY OF TAMPA'S SUCCESS IS BASED
06:37:36PM ON THE PEOPLE, RESIDENTS FEELING THEY BELONG.
06:37:39PM MR. MIRANDA WAS REFERENCING YBOR CITY, WHICH I KNOW IS CLOSE
06:37:44PM TO HIS HEART.
06:37:45PM I DID MENTION I LOVE MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND I REALLY ENJOY
06:37:49PM SPENDING MY TIME IN MY BACK YARD.
06:37:51PM I OPPOSE THE REZONING FOR THE 4111 SAN CARLOS DUE TO THE
06:37:56PM FACT THIS WILL CHANGE THE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE
06:37:58PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:37:58PM SPECIFICALLY IT WILL GIVE THE FEELING OF JUST ANOTHER
06:38:01PM CONCRETE JUNGLE OR CITY IN ANYWHERE USA.
06:38:05PM THE FEELING OF BELONGING TO THE CITY OF TAMPA WILL BE ERODED
06:38:09PM AND LOST.
06:38:10PM I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU MY BACK YARD AND YOU GOT A
06:38:13PM SNEAK PREVIEW.
06:38:14PM A LOT OF SWEAT EQUITY PUT INTO THIS BACK YARD.
06:38:17PM WHEN A STRUCTURE SEVEN FEET AWAY, IT WILL NO LONGER BE THE
06:38:20PM TRANQUIL, PEACEFUL RELAXING BACK YARD IT IS NOW.
06:38:24PM I CHOSE TO MAKE MY HOME HERE 35 YEARS AGO BECAUSE IT IS A
06:38:29PM QUIET NABBED.
06:38:29PM I DID NOT CHOOSE TO LIVE DOWNTOWN WHERE PEOPLE ARE ELBOW TO
06:38:34PM ELBOW.
06:38:34PM I CHOSE TO LIVE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD FOR THE CHARACTERISTIC
06:38:37PM OF THIS SPACE.
06:38:38PM I DID NOT CHOOSE TO LIVE IN A CEMENT JUNGLE.
06:38:42PM WE HAVE AN OAK TREE ON THE PROPOSED SEVEN-FOOT SIDE OF THE
06:38:53PM 4111 SAN CARLOS PROPERTY.
06:38:55PM THIS IS SEVEN FEET FROM THE TIP OF MY FINGER TO THE FLOOR.
06:38:59PM THAT IS SEVEN FEET.
06:39:00PM WHO WOULD LIKE ME TO CALL THEM WHEN MY OAK TREE DIES DUE TO
06:39:05PM INTERFERENCE OF THE TREE ROOTS.
06:39:07PM YOU CAN SAYS IT ADDRESSED BY THE BUILDER; HOWEVER, HAVE YOU
06:39:10PM EVER HAD A BUILDER TELL YOU A FIB?
06:39:13PM HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF THIS WAS YOUR HOUSE.
06:39:16PM MY STREET CAMERON IS A DEAD-END STREET AND THE PROPOSE
06:39:21PM HOMES HAVE PARKING FOR NINE CARS.
06:39:23PM PRESENTLY MY BLOCK HAS SIX CARS.
06:39:25PM THAT WILL BE 150% INCREASE OF CARS AT A MINIMUM.
06:39:28PM ALONG THE CARS, THE DRIVE WAS A CONCRETE, LIMITED GREEN
06:39:32PM SPACE, THE DRAINAGE WILL CHANGE.
06:39:34PM NOT IN A POSITIVE MANNER.
06:39:35PM THAT IS COMMON SENSE.
06:39:37PM IN SUMMARY, LET'S GO BACK TO MR. MIRANDA AND WHAT HE SAID OF
06:39:42PM TAMPA'S SUCCESS IS BASED ON RESIDENTS FEELING THEY BELONG.
06:39:45PM IF YOU APPROVE THIS ZONING REQUEST, THE FEELING OF BELONGING
06:39:49PM TO THE CITY OF TAMPA WILL BE ERODED AND LOST.
06:39:51PM A CONCRETE JUNGLE DOES NOT FIT THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:39:54PM BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF.
06:39:56PM WALK IN THE SHOES OF THE RESIDENTS, AND PLEASE DENY THIS
06:40:00PM REZONING ASK.
06:40:01PM THANK YOU.
06:40:02PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:40:03PM GOOD EVENING, COUNCILMEMBERS, ALI MANSOUR --
06:40:13PM >> JUST AS A MATTER OF PROCEDURE, ALI IS THE SON OF THE
06:40:17PM OWNER.
06:40:17PM I JUST WANTED TO CONFIRM WITH COUNCIL IF YOU WANT THEM TO
06:40:21PM SPEAK WITH REBUTTAL OR SEPARATELY?
06:40:25PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: YOU HAVE SPOKEN AS THE REPRESENTATIVE.
06:40:27PM I MEAN -- YOU -- THIS COULD GO INTO YOUR REBUTTAL TIME, IF
06:40:34PM THAT IS --
06:40:35PM >> I JUST DON'T WANT TO RUN AFOUL OF PROCEDURE SO I HAVE AN
06:40:38PM OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK.
06:40:39PM >> YOU COULD HAVE SPOKEN WHEN HE MADE YOUR CHASE IN CHIEF,
06:40:42PM BUT AT THIS TIME, YOU ARE GOING -- INCLUDED IN THE REBUTTAL
06:40:47PM TIME.
06:40:47PM YOU CAN DIVIDE THAT UP AS YOU WILL.
06:40:49PM >> I THINK -- I WON'T NEED TO SPEAK THAT LONG, I THINK THAT
06:40:52PM MAKES THE MOST SENSE.
06:40:53PM IS THERE -- IF NO ONE ELSE IN OPPOSITION, I WOULD --
06:40:59PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: WE ARE GOING TO HAVE FOUR SPEAKERS ONLINE.
06:41:01PM >> OKAY.
06:41:02PM YOU CAN JUST WAIT.
06:41:06PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ALL RIGHT, WE HAVE FOUR SPEAKERS WAITING
06:41:11PM ONLINE.
06:41:12PM SAMANTHA SPARKS, THOMAS CONNOLLY, KEN BARRY AND NANCY
06:41:17PM DEROSA.
06:41:18PM AND I AM GOING TO NEED TO SEE YOUR FACES.
06:41:26PM AND YOU ARE GOING TO NEED TO BE SWORN IN.
06:41:28PM IF I CAN GET AS MANY OF THE FOUR SPEAKERS UP AS POSSIBLE SO
06:41:37PM --
06:41:38PM >>CLERK: THIS IS THE CITY CLERK.
06:41:40PM MISS NANCY DEROSA IS NOT LOGGED ON AT THIS TIME.
06:41:44PM KENNY BARRY, I HAVE SEVERAL REQUESTS FOR HIM TO TURN ON HIS
06:41:49PM VIDEO.
06:41:49PM HE HAS NOT DONE SO YET.
06:41:50PM AND HE IS ON SO YOU HAVE THE TWO SPEAKERS IN FRONT OF YOU AT
06:41:53PM THIS MOMENT.
06:41:54PM CITIZENS.
06:41:55PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: MISS SPARKS, MR. CONNOLLY, IF YOU CAN RAISE
06:41:58PM YOUR RIGHT HAND.
06:41:59PM >> I AM SORRY.
06:42:00PM [SWEARING IN]
06:42:06PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:42:07PM LADIES FIRST.
06:42:08PM MISS SPARKS.
06:42:09PM HELLO, SAMANTHA SPARKS.
06:42:13PM AND I LIVED IN SOUTH TAMPA MY WHOLE LIFE AND I STRONGLY
06:42:17PM OPPOSE THIS REZONING ISSUE.
06:42:19PM I LIKE TO SPEAK TO IS THE NEIGHBORHOOD PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
06:42:22PM A STUDENT MAYBERRY ELEMENTARY, COLEMAN MIDDLE AND GRADUATED
06:42:28PM FROM PLANT HIGH SCHOOL IN MAY 2021.
06:42:30PM I KNOW FIRSTHAND THE ISSUE STUDENTS AND TEACHERS FACE WITH
06:42:33PM OVERCROWDED SCHOOLS.
06:42:34PM WITH CLASSROOM SIZES INCREASED, TEACHERS ARE NOT ABLE TO
06:42:37PM GIVE ONE ON ONE AND SMALL GROUP INSTRUCTION ON A REGULAR
06:42:41PM BASIS THAT CAUSES MANY STRUGGLING STUDENTS TO FALL EVEN
06:42:44PM FURTHER BEHIND.
06:42:45PM OVERCROWDED HALLWAYS AND PACKED WITH STUDENTS PROVIDES
06:42:49PM CONFLICT, TENSION AND DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR.
06:42:52PM OVERCROWDING LEADS TO LESS ACCESS TO SCHOOL EQUIPMENT AND
06:42:55PM TECHNOLOGY BECAUSE NOT ENOUGH ROOM FOR SPECIALTIES SUCH AS
06:42:58PM SCIENCE LABS AND COMPUTER LABS.
06:43:00PM IT ALSO LEADS TO LESS SPACE ON CAMPUS THAT RESULT FOR SOME
06:43:05PM STUDENTS NOT HAVING A PLACE TO EAT LUNCH BECAUSE NOT ENOUGH
06:43:08PM ROOM IN THE CAFETERIA.
06:43:09PM OUR SCHOOLS ARE ALREADY SO OVERCROWDED AND SO MANY PEOPLE
06:43:13PM HAVE TO EAT IN THE HALLWAYS FOR NOT EVERYONE TO HAVE A SEAT
06:43:16PM IN THE CAFETERIA.
06:43:17PM AND SOME SCHOOLS HAVE TO START SERVE LUNCH AT 10:CAN 30 FOR
06:43:22PM EVERYONE TO HAVE A CHANCE TO EATS.
06:43:23PM OVERCROWDING IS ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ISSUES FACING
06:43:26PM OUR SCHOOLS, STUDENTS AND TEACHERS TODAY.
06:43:28PM STUDENTS IN OVERCROWDED SCHOOLS LEARN LESS AND ACHIEVE LESS
06:43:32PM AS THEY SUFFER INTERRUPTED INSTRUCTIONAL TIME, LIMITED
06:43:35PM ACCESS TO HONORS AND AP CLASSES AND LIMITED OR NO ACCESS TO
06:43:40PM VALUABLE RESOURCES.
06:43:41PM WHEN THERE ARE MORE STUDENTS IN THE CLASSROOM, INCREASED
06:43:44PM NOISE LEVEL MAKE IT HARDER FOR TEACHERS TO TEACH AND
06:43:48PM STUDENTS TO CONCENTRATE.
06:43:49PM THINK OF THE VALUABLE LESSON TIME AND LESSON THAT ARE MISSED
06:43:53PM WHEN TEACHERS FOCUS ON CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT AND NOISE
06:43:56PM CONTROL.
06:43:57PM THE STRESS AND FRUSTRATION THAT PUT IN OUR TEACHERS LEAD TO
06:44:00PM TEACHER BURNOUT AN MANY EXCELLENT TEACHERS LEAVE THE
06:44:04PM PROFESSION.
06:44:05PM NOT WORTH THE STRESS THEY DEAL WITH ON A DAILY BASIS.
06:44:08PM OUR SOUTH TAMPA SCHOOLS ARE CROWDED ENOUGH AND THIS REZONING
06:44:12PM WILL MAKE THE MUCH PROBLEM WORSE.
06:44:14PM THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK ON THIS ISSUE.
06:44:17PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:44:19PM MR. CONNOLLY.
06:44:20PM >> CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?
06:44:23PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: YES, SIR.
06:44:24PM MY NAME IS TOM CONNOLLY, THE CURRENT PRESIDENT OF THE
06:44:28PM VIRGINIA PARK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
06:44:29PM I AM SPEAK IN THAT CAPACITY WITH THE CONCURRENCE OF MY
06:44:32PM BOARD.
06:44:33PM THE CLASSIC DEFINITION OF LOT ZONING SINGLING OUT
06:44:40PM CLASSIFICATION DIFFERENT THAN THE SURROUNDING AREA FOR THE
06:44:43PM BENEFIT OF PROPERTY AND THE DETRIMENT OF OTHER ONES.
06:44:47PM STAFF ANALYSIS OF THE CORN FORMING AREA OF 4111 SAN CARLOS
06:44:52PM SHOW THAT 90% OF HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH
06:44:57PM OF 60 NOT FOR GREATER.
06:44:59PM AND CARRY WEIGHT AND SIGNIFICANCE OF PATTERN OF DEVELOPMENT.
06:45:03PM SECTION 27-11 TO, QUOTE, DEVELOPMENT PATTERN.
06:45:07PM NOTHING ELSE IS REQUIRED BY CODE.
06:45:10PM NOT THE SUBJECT LOT OR THE BLOCK FACE.
06:45:14PM THEREFORE, THE, I'M OF THE CODE SHOULD BE OF THE BIGGEST
06:45:17PM FACTOR IN ANY ANALYSIS.
06:45:18PM THIS IS AN EXTREME LOT.
06:45:20PM WHY IS THIS EX-STROOEM STREAM?
06:45:24PM THIS LOT IS 40 FOOT SMALLER THAN REZONING SPLIT.
06:45:27PM IT WILL RESULT IN A SPOT REZONING THROUGH THE USE OF A PD
06:45:32PM REZONING REQUEST.
06:45:33PM PDs ARE TO BE USED ONLY IF OTHER ZONINGS WILL NOT ALLOW THE

06:47:16PM I REGULARLY RUN AND WALK MY DOG IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:47:19PM I RECOGNIZE MANY OF THESE PEOPLE WHO HAVE SPOKE TODAY.
06:47:23PM AND I CAN'T REALLY ADD ANYTHING NEW TO WHAT THEY HAVE SAID,
06:47:27PM BUT I -- THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS STUFF KIND OF BOTHERS ME
06:47:32PM WITH THE DRAINAGE.
06:47:33PM WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT DRAINS INTO LAURIE McMAHON'S YARD?
06:47:39PM WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THAT?
06:47:41PM BECAUSE -- YOU HAVE ONE GIGANTIC.
06:47:44PM YOU ARE GOING TO RAISE THE GRADING ON THAT AND ALL GO IN HER
06:47:47PM YARD AND NOW SHE HAS TO DEAL WITH IT.
06:47:49PM THE OTHER THING IS, WITH NO SIDEWALKS AT ALL AROUND THOSE
06:47:53PM STREETS, EVERYBODY HAS TO WALK IN THE STREET AROUND THERE.
06:47:56PM YOU HAVE SIX SCHOOLS BASICALLY WITHIN HALF MILE, THREE
06:48:01PM QUARTERS.
06:48:02PM IF YOU EVER CAME AROUND HERE AT 7:00 IN THE MORNING AND
06:48:06PM WATCHED ALL THE KIDS THAT WALK WITH THEIR PARENTS AND RIDE
06:48:09PM THEIR BIKES TO SCHOOL AND ALL THAT.
06:48:10PM NINE CARS IN THIS DRIVEWAY?
06:48:14PM I MEAN, WHAT IS THIS GOING TO BE, A SHORT-TERM RENTAL?
06:48:18PM AND I HAVE THAT PROBLEM ON MY STREET, A SHORT-TERM RENTAL.
06:48:22PM I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEIR USE IS, WHY THEY NEED NINE CAR --
06:48:29PM SOMETHING IS FISHY.
06:48:30PM SOUNDS LIKE THE TWO GENTLEMEN THAT SPOKE FIRST IN FAVOR OF
06:48:33PM THIS KIND OF PREBARRICADED A LOT OF THE INFORMATION.
06:48:38PM 12,000-SQUARE-FOOT HOMES ON SMALL LOT?
06:48:42PM I JUST -- I JUST HOPE YOU DENY THIS.
06:48:45PM THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY.
06:48:47PM THANK YOU.
06:48:47PM SETH.
06:48:48PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:48:49PM AND IS THAT IS IT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT.
06:48:54PM REBUTTAL TIME.
06:48:56PM GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
06:49:08PM FOR THE RECORD KEVIN REALI, 401 EAST JACKSON STREET.
06:49:12PM TWIEPT GO QUICKLY SO MY COLLEAGUES HAVE A MOMENT TO SPEAK
06:49:15PM HERE.
06:49:15PM ALL OF THE CONCERNS RELATED TO EVACUATION, DENSITY AND
06:49:18PM GROWTH FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REFER TO THE FUTURE LAND
06:49:22PM USE CATEGORY.
06:49:23PM THE FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORIES IS NOT BEING REQUESTED TO
06:49:25PM CHANGE.
06:49:26PM AND WE CONFORM WITH THE DENSITY OF THOSE PROVISIONS.
06:49:29PM SPEAKING TO MRS. FEELEY'S STATEMENTS THAT WERE MADE IN
06:49:34PM PERSON IN THAT MEETING.
06:49:34PM HEARSAY AND THE PRIOR REPORT IS FOR A DIFFERENT APPLICATION.
06:49:38PM AND IT DIDN'T CONSIDER THIS BLOCK.
06:49:40PM THE LARGER LOT PATTERN THAT MANY OF THE CONSTITUENTS UP HERE
06:49:47PM SPOKE OF WAS ANALYZED BY STAFF.
06:49:49PM IT IS IN THE STAFF REPORT AND STAFF WAS SWAYED TO FIND THIS
06:49:52PM CONSISTENT AND COMPATIBLE AFTER REVIEWING THE LARGER AREA AS
06:49:55PM THE CODE REQUIRES.
06:49:56PM IT -- THE PROCEDURE CHOSEN DOES NOT UP-END COMPATIBILITY,
06:50:01PM THIS IS LOW DENSITY SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED DEVELOPMENT.
06:50:05PM COMPATIBILITY IS NOT THE SAME AS.
06:50:07PM AND I WOULD SUGGEST THAT 110-FOOT LOT IS NO MORE COMPATIBLE
06:50:11PM IN RS-75 THAN A 55-FOOT LOT.
06:50:15PM THIS IS THE -- THIS IS THE SAME -- THE SAME TYPE OF USE OF
06:50:20PM SAME DENSITY IN THE RS-6 CATEGORY.
06:50:23PM ADDITIONALLY, THESE HOMES ARE -- ARE CLOSER TO
06:50:29PM 4,000-SQUARE-FOOT HEATED.
06:50:30PM NOT THE SIZE STATED AND BUILT WITH THE RS-.75 SETBACKS WITH
06:50:37PM APPROVAL OF THE STORMWATER DEPARTMENT.
06:50:39PM THEY ARE BUILDING WITHIN THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SURROUNDING
06:50:42PM ZONING AREA.
06:50:42PM THE PUBLIC MENTIONED A NUMBER OF FACTS AND DISCUSSED A LOT
06:50:46PM OF FACTS.
06:50:47PM AND BROUGHT UP VARIOUS PARTS OF THE COULD HE HAD.
06:50:50PM BUT THESE ARE ALL THINGS CONSIDERED BY STAFF.
06:50:53PM THE LARGER AREA WAS CONSIDERED BY STAFF AND STAFF, WITH
06:50:57PM COUNCIL, WAS SWAYED BY THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IN THE MORE
06:51:00PM IMMEDIATE AREA.
06:51:01PM THE FACTS DISCUSSED HERE BY STAFF -- BY THE CONSTITUENTS GO
06:51:08PM TO THE SAME THINGS THAT STAFF ALREADY CONSIDERED.
06:51:12PM AND THE OPINIONS OF STAFF RULED OVER THAT.
06:51:16PM NOT THE OPINIONS OF THE CONSTITUENTS.
06:51:18PM ADDITIONALLY AND JUST VERY BRIEFLY HERE.
06:51:20PM THE STAFF TALKED -- EXCUSE ME THE CONSTITUENTS TALKED A
06:51:24PM GREAT DEAL ABOUT THE -- SECTION 27-11 TALKING ABOUT NOT
06:51:29PM SPLITTING LOTS.
06:51:29PM WELL, WHAT THAT PREVENTS IS PAY TENTLY INCONSISTENT --
06:51:33PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: SIR, HANG ON ONE SECOND.
06:51:35PM CAN WE GET THE OVERHEAD, PLEASE.
06:51:38PM THANK YOU.
06:51:41PM >> SECTION 27-11 DISCUSSES DENYING WHEN LOTS ARE PAY TENTLY
06:51:48PM INCONSISTENT WHICH IS NOT THE CASE HERE AND DISCUSSES
06:51:50PM ANALYSIS TO DETERMINE COMPATIBLE WHICH PROFESSIONAL STAFF
06:51:54PM ALREADY DID.
06:51:55PM ADDITIONALLY PART OF THE REQUIREMENTS TO REVIEW THE ORIGINAL
06:51:58PM PLAT AND SUBDIVISION DOCUMENTS WHICH WERE PROPOSED HERE.
06:52:01PM I WILL LET ALI TO SPEAK AND THEN THE DESIGN PROFESSIONAL.
06:52:06PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
06:52:08PM ALI MANSOUR.
06:52:11PM I WILL BE BRIEF.
06:52:12PM I GREW UP 411 SAN CARLOS FOR THE FIRST 20 YEARS.
06:52:16PM SINCE THEN MY SIBLINGS AND I GREW YOU UP AND WENT TO THE
06:52:20PM PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE AREA AND USF.
06:52:22PM I WENT TO WORK IN ST. PETERSBURG AND MY SISTERS ARE NOW
06:52:25PM DENTAL SCHOOL AT NYU.
06:52:28PM THIS HOME WAS NO THE A MONEY GRAB.
06:52:30PM FOR US TO COME BACK TO THE COMMUNITY THAT WE LOVE.
06:52:32PM THAT WE GREW UP IN AND SURROUNDED BY FAMILY.
06:52:35PM THANK YOU.
06:52:36PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
06:52:37PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
06:52:42PM TRAVIS HILLS.
06:52:43PM JUST HOPE THAT YOU CAN BEAR WITH ME JUST FOR A FEW MINUTES.
06:52:46PM I DON'T WANT TO TAKE A LOT OF TIME.
06:52:49PM I SEE THE CLOCK.
06:52:50PM BUT I JUST WANTED TO ASK IF I COULD GO A LITTLE OVER CAN YOU
06:52:54PM GIVE ME A MOMENT.
06:52:55PM I THINK YOU ALL UNDERSTAND WHEN IT COMES TO TIME THAT WE ARE
06:53:00PM TRYING TO HELP BE SENSITIVE.
06:53:05PM I JUST WANTED TO JUST KIND OF MAKE SURE THAT FROM A DESIGNER
06:53:09PM DIDN'T, SOME OF THE THINGS ARE CLEAR.
06:53:11PM I MEAN, KEVIN HAS DONE A GREAT JOB OF POINTING THOSE THINGS
06:53:15PM OUT, BUT EVEN SPECIFICALLY, WHEN IT COMES TO THESE LOT
06:53:19PM SIZES, THE WAY THEY ARE DESIGNED, EVERYTHING WAS TAKEN INTO
06:53:24PM ACCOUNT.
06:53:24PM TO MINIMIZE THE IMPACT TO HAVE NO WAIVERS NEEDED.
06:53:33PM AND WHEN IT COMES TO SQUARE FOOTAGE, IF YOU RECOGNIZE THAT
06:53:37PM -- THAT CORNER LOT, WE ACTUALLY WENT 15 FEET.
06:53:40PM NOT SEVEN.
06:53:43PM THAT MEANS THAT THE SQUARE FOOTAGE IS STACKED.
06:53:46PM WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT -- WHEN IT COMES TO DRAINAGE, IT IS ALL
06:53:50PM ABOUT THE FOOTPRINT.
06:53:51PM NOT ABOUT THE SQUARE FOOTAGE THAT IS ON THE SECOND FLOOR.
06:53:54PM SO SOMEBODY -- SOME OF THESE HOMES THAT PEOPLE DO ARE SPLIT
06:53:58PM LEVELS WHERE IT IS NOT NECESSARILY STACKED SQUARE FOOTAGE.
06:54:02PM TRADITIONAL ONE OVER ONE OUT A PERIMETER.
06:54:06PM THIS IS WHY THAT WAS DONE IN THAT CASE.
06:54:08PM THE OTHER THING IS WITH THE DRIVEWAYS.
06:54:12PM I HEAR SOMETIMES PEOPLE TALK OF IT AS TWO HOMES.
06:54:17PM BUT THEN THEY WILL USE STATISTICS AS IF IT IS ONE
06:54:21PM DEVELOPMENT.
06:54:21PM NINE PARKING SPACES.
06:54:22PM WELL, EVERY HOUSE THAT HAS A TWO-CAR GARAGE AND DRIVEWAY IN
06:54:28PM FRONT OF IT HAS FOUR PARKING SPACES.
06:54:31PM SO THAT IS PROBABLY ALMOST EVERYBODY IN HERE.
06:54:33PM SO WE ARE TALKING ONE ADDITIONAL WHICH IS A CIRCULAR THAT
06:54:37PM MAKES --
06:54:38PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: 30 SECONDS MORE.
06:54:39PM >> OKAY, THANK YOU.
06:54:40PM THAT MAKES UP THAT ADDITIONAL ONE SPACE.
06:54:43PM THAT IS OUT OF THE NORM.
06:54:44PM NOW BACK TO THE PROPERTY ADJACENT ON THE BACK.
06:54:48PM THOSE -- THAT HOUSE DOES THE SAME THING.
06:54:51PM THEY GOT TWO IN FRONT AND A DETACHED IN THE BACK.
06:54:55PM WITH -- ABLE TO ACCESS ON BOTH SIDES.
06:54:59PM ONCE AGAIN, IT ALL FALLS WITHIN THE SETBACK REQUIREMENTS.
06:55:07PM THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
06:55:11PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. CHAIRMAN.
06:55:13PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN GUDES.
06:55:15PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: ZAIN.
06:55:18PM I DON'T WANT TO USE THE WORD "DEBACLE", BUT THIS HAS BEEN A
06:55:38PM DEBACLE CASE.
06:55:39PM LOOKING AT PAPERWORK BACK FROM 2012 TO NOW.
06:55:42PM TO TODAY, STAFF IS SAYING THIS IS CONSISTENT, CORRECT?
06:55:49PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: ZAIN HUSSEIN, LAND DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
06:55:51PM THAT IS CORRECT.
06:55:53PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT.
06:55:54PM WHEN I LOOK AT SEVERAL FOLKS IN THE AUDIENCE HAVE GIVEN US
06:55:57PM DRAWINGS -- I WANT YOU TO PUT UP YOUR DRAWINGS.
06:56:00PM BECAUSE WHEN I LOOK AT THE MAP AND I LOOK AT COMPATIBILITY
06:56:04PM -- BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN NEIGHBORHOODS AND NEIGHBORHOODS ARE
06:56:06PM KEEPING THEIR CONTINUITY, BUT WHEN I LOOK AT THE MAP, AND I
06:56:10PM COUNTS.
06:56:11PM AND WHEN I LOOK AT THIS -- THIS GENTLEMAN WHO BROUGHT THE
06:56:16PM MAP, 162, 78.
06:56:18PM AND I SEE ON THAT MAP THAT THE AUDIENCE BROUGHT TO ME, I SEE
06:56:24PM 113, I SEE 110, 110, 110, 103.
06:56:30PM YOU KNOW, AND THEN I LOOK AT SOME OF THE OTHER -- SOME OF
06:56:35PM THE OTHER SECTIONS OF THIS MAP.
06:56:36PM 100, 100, 108, 104.
06:56:40PM I AM TRYING TO FIGURE OUTS HOW IS THIS NOT COMPATIBLE.
06:56:43PM SO WHEN I LOOK -- AGAIN, WHEN I LOOK AT THIS AND I LOOK AT
06:56:47PM THESE NUMBERS, SOUTH OF LOIS AVENUE, WEST OF SAN MIGUEL,
06:56:51PM 100, 100, 100, 94, 116, 103.
06:56:56PM I HAVE A HARD TIME SAYING THIS IS NOT COMPATIBLE.
06:56:59PM SOME IS THIS THE CONCLUSION THAT YOUR OFFICE CAME -- IS
06:57:04PM SAYING THESE ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THE NUMBERS, WITH THESE
06:57:07PM LOTS SDMRANZ ZAIN YES, SIR, ZAIN HUSSEIN, DEVELOPMENT
06:57:09PM COORDINATION.
06:57:10PM GREATS POINT.
06:57:11PM WHEN STAFF WAS ANALYZE THIS AS I SHOWED, YOU ARE LOOKING AT
06:57:16PM THE BLOCK HERE.
06:57:17PM AND ALSO FROM THE BLOCK FACE FROM SOUTH CAMERON AVENUE.
06:57:21PM AS YOU SEE THOSE LOTS TO THE NORTH AND ALSO TO THE EAST, YOU
06:57:26PM WILL SEE THAT COMPATIBILITY.
06:57:27PM WHAT THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING.
06:57:30PM SO IT WILL BE OVERALL COMPATIBLE, AND DIFFERENT PARTS --
06:57:34PM DIFFERENT STAGES OF OUR STAFF HAS ANALYZED IT.
06:57:37PM DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS HAVE LOOKED AT IT.
06:57:39PM AND WAS OVERALL FOUND CONSISTENT.
06:57:41PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL HIS IS MY SIGHT AND NOT TOO GOOD.
06:57:47PM FOLKS BROUGHT ME THEIR MAPS AND THAT MAP.
06:57:50PM WHAT I SEE IN MY EYE IS COMPATIBILITY ESPECIALLY THIS
06:57:54PM GENTLEMAN WITH THIS MAP ACTUALLY PUTS OUT THE ACTUAL NUMERIC
06:57:58PM NUMBERS OF THE APPARENT HOUSE ON THE LOT ON THIS MAP.
06:58:01PM I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE.
06:58:04PM THAT IS WHY I ASKED YOU FOR YOUR MAP.
06:58:06PM YOU ARE SAYING THIS IS COMPATIBLE TO WHAT -- WHAT OUR CODE
06:58:11PM IS, CORRECT?
06:58:12PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: CORRECT.
06:58:13PM THIS MAP WAS PROVIDED TO US BY THE MAPPING DEPARTMENT FROM
06:58:17PM THE CITY OF TAMPA.
06:58:17PM SO THEY HAVE PROVIDED THE NUMBERS.
06:58:19PM THEY HAVE THE GIS SOFTWARE.
06:58:22PM THEY PROVIDE THE COMPATIBILITY AND CONFORMING MAP FOR STAFF
06:58:25PM TO ANALYZE.
06:58:26PM THEIR NUMBERS ARE CORRECT.
06:58:27PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR.
06:58:29PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:58:32PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I WILL STICK WITH THIS WHOLE MAP SCENARIO
06:58:35PM BECAUSE WHAT I DID WHILE LISTENING TO THE CITIZENS AND
06:58:37PM SAYING THIS LOT CONFORMS TO THE REST OF IT.
06:58:42PM WELL, I COUNTED -- AND ONLY 11 LOTS IN THIS ENTIRE AREA THAT
06:58:47PM ARE 110 OR WIDER.
06:58:49PM SOME LOT SPLITTING TO ME -- A, THE BLOCK FACE FITS.
06:58:59PM B, THERE ARE SO FEW LOTS THAT ARE THIS SIZE THAT -- I DON'T
06:59:05PM SEE THE -- I DON'T SEE THEIR ARGUMENT HERE.
06:59:08PM BUT I ALSO WANTED TO ASK YOU, HOW -- IF YOU WERE GOING -- IF
06:59:13PM THIS LOT IS TECHNICALLY DIVIDED INTO TWO HOW MUCH SQUARE
06:59:18PM FOOTAGE WOULD BE IN EACH LOT?
06:59:20PM I BELIEVE YOU SHOWED US A SLIDE ABOUT THAT OR A PAGE.
06:59:22PM IT WAS 75 SOMETHING OR OTHER.
06:59:25PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: YES.
06:59:29PM THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING BOTH THE LOTS TO BE 55 X 139.
06:59:36PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I AM SORRY, I CAN'T DO THE MATH IN MY HEAD.
06:59:39PM DO THE SQUARE FOOTAGE.
06:59:41PM OR SOMEONE ELSE DO THE MATH.
06:59:43PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: 55 X 139, THE DIMENSION, 7645.
06:59:55PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: 7645 SQUARE FEET.
06:59:59PM >>LYNN HURTAK: 7645.
07:00:02PM MY UNDERSTAND THAT 75 -- THE 75 ZONING IS -- ONE OF THE
07:00:08PM REQUIREMENTS IS THAT IT IS 7500 SQUARE FEET.
07:00:11PM AM I CORRECT IN THAT.
07:00:12PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: CORRECTS.
07:00:13PM >>LYNN HURTAK: BASICALLY THE ONLY THING THAT DOESN'T FIT IS
07:00:15PM THE FRONTAGE.
07:00:16PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: CORRECT.
07:00:18PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY, THANK YOU.
07:00:19PM THOSE ARE MY QUESTIONS.
07:00:21PM I APPRECIATES IT.
07:00:22PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS?
07:00:25PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MOVE TO CLOSE --
07:00:27PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: BEFORE WE CLOSE.
07:00:28PM MY NAME WAS MENTIONED A COUPLE OF TIMES.
07:00:30PM MR. CHAIRMAN, IF I MAY.
07:00:32PM SOMETIMES IT IS WELL SAID.
07:00:34PM SOMETIMES IT IS NOT WELL SAID; HOWEVER, WHEN I LOOK AT THE
07:00:40PM MAP AND I LOOK AT THE BLUE AND THE 110.
07:00:42PM I WAS IN MY MIND THINKING IT HAS GOT TO PASS.
07:00:45PM IT IS WITHIN REASON.
07:00:47PM AND THEN WHEN I VOTED I SAID TO MYSELF, YEAH, THAT'S FINE.
07:00:52PM I DID THE RIGHT THING.
07:00:53PM WHEN I WHEN BACK AND I HEARD WHAT WAS MENTIONED NOW, I WAS
07:00:57PM BASE IT ON THE TWO -- THE 250.
07:01:00PM THIS IS QUARTER OF A MILE.
07:01:02PM IF ANYONE ERRORED, IT'S ME.
07:01:05PM THAT'S ALL TIME GOING TO SAY.
07:01:06PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
07:01:09PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION.
07:01:11PM IF THIS PETITIONER BUILT WHAT THEY WANT WITH, LIKE, A
07:01:18PM CONNECTOR TO MAKE IT TECHNICALLY ONE HOUSE, IT WOULD STILL
07:01:22PM BE LEGAL, RIGHT?
07:01:23PM WITH THE CURRENT ZONING AND THE CURRENT LOT SIZE?
07:01:29PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: CAN YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN?
07:01:31PM >>LYNN HURTAK: BASICALLY THEY COULD BUILD A HOUSE TO FIT THE
07:01:35PM LOT LINES THEY ARE IN RIGHT NOW.
07:01:37PM AND THEY CAN FILL IN ALL THAT EXTRA SPACE.
07:01:39PM AND THAT WILL BE FINE.
07:01:40PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: THEY CAN MEET THE REQUIREMENTS WITH ONE
07:01:43PM HOUSE.
07:01:43PM >>LYNN HURTAK: BUT WITH THE SAME SETBACKS.
07:01:47PM THEY CAN PUT A 10,000-SQUARE-FOOT HOUSE THERE INSTEAD.
07:01:52PM >>ZAIN HUSSEIN: YES, MA'AM.
07:01:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.
07:01:55PM THANK YOU.

07:02:31PM I MOVE AN ORDINANCE FILE NUMBER REZ 22-24 REZONING THE
07:02:43PM PROPERTY -- WHOOPS.
07:02:46PM I MOVE THAT THE ORDINANCE AND DIRECT REVISIONS SHOWN ON THE

07:03:11PM FINDINGS OF FACT BASED ON COMPETENT AND SUBSTANTIAL
07:03:14PM EVIDENCES IN STAFF REPORTS, APPLICANT REPORTS, TESTIMONY,
07:03:18PM ETC. THAT ESTABLISH COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE GOALS AND
07:03:22PM TOLE CEASE IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SUCH AS NOTED IN THE
07:03:25PM PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT THE EXISTING DENSITY ALONG WEST
07:03:29PM CARLOS STREET IS 4.56.
07:03:33PM DEVELOPMENT PER ACRE.
07:03:34PM AND IS 4.51 ALONG SOUTH CAMERON.
07:03:39PM THE REQUEST FOR THE PROPOSED DENSITY OF 5.71 IS SHEETLY
07:03:44PM GREATER THAN THE EXISTING DENSITY AND ALLOW FOR COMPATIBLE
07:03:47PM DEVELOPMENT WITHIN AREA PLANNED FOR A DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF
07:03:51PM SIX DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE CONSISTENT WITH POLICY.

07:57:07PM ANOTHER VIEW.
07:57:08PM SOUTH ON SCOTT.
07:57:11PM AND WE END ON THE WESTERN END OF THE SITE ON MARYLAND AND
07:57:16PM BACK TO THE SOUTH.
07:57:17PM AND THIS IS SOUTH OF THE EXPRESSWAY.
07:57:20PM AND THAT IS LOOKING NORTH.
07:57:21PM SO THIS SITE WAS HEARD BEFORE THIS PROJECT -- THIS PROJECT
07:57:27PM WAS HEARD BEFORE THE BLC ON JUNE 28, 2020.
07:57:32PM ON PAGE 3 OF THE STAFF REPORT, YOU WILL FIND THE
07:57:35PM RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE BLC.
07:57:37PM THEY WERE A LIST OF RECOMMENDATION THAT ARE REQUESTED.
07:57:41PM THERE ARE THREE.
07:57:42PM THESE CHANGES HAVE BEEN INCORPORATED IN THE REVISED SITE
07:57:46PM PLAN.
07:57:46PM THE REVISED SITE PLAN DATE WAS AFTER THIS PUBLIC HEARING FOR
07:57:50PM THE BLC.
07:57:52PM SO THE APPLICANT WAS ABLE TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES AND
07:57:55PM INCORPORATE THEM INTO THE SITE PLAN BUT THEY WERE THE
07:57:57PM RESTRICTION ON THE MANAGES MUM HEIGHT OF BLOCK E-1 AND ALSO
07:58:02PM FOR BLOCK E-2.
07:58:04PM HEIGHT ALLOWED 65 FEET WITH A MAXIMUM OF 85 FEET PLAGUED ON
07:58:09PM THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY AND ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE
07:58:11PM BORDERING THE HISTORIC DISTRICTS OR LOCATED IN THE HISTORIC
07:58:15PM DISTRICT.
07:58:16PM E-5, A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 65 FEET AND THAT HAS BEEN NOTATED
07:58:21PM ON THE SITE PLAN AS MENTIONED.
07:58:25PM THE DRC STAFF REVIEWED THE REQUEST AND FOUND IF INCONSISTENT.
07:58:29PM YOU FIND FROM NATURAL RESOURCES AND ERIN WILL COME UP AND GO
07:58:35PM OVER HER COMMENTS.
07:58:35PM THE REVISIONS REQUIRED HAVE BEEN MADE.
07:58:39PM WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING AT A PROJECT OF THIS SIZE, THE
07:58:42PM APPLICANT HAS WORKED WITH STAFF.
07:58:44PM IT IS HARD TO GET ALL OF THE CHANGES INTO THE SITE PLAN BY
07:58:47PM THE DEADLINE TO REVIEW.
07:58:49PM SO YOU SEE A LOT OF CHANGES ON THE REVISION SHEET, BUT FOR A
07:58:53PM PROJECT OF THIS SIZE, IT IS NOT, YOU KNOW, RARE TO HAVE
07:58:57PM THAT.
07:58:57PM THOSE CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE.
07:58:58PM THEY ARE MOSTLY MINOR IN NATURE.
07:59:00PM AND THE APPLICANT AGREES TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES BETWEEN FIRST
07:59:03PM AND SECOND READING.
07:59:04PM SO WITH THAT, I WILL TURN IT OVER TO ERIN.
07:59:08PM AND I AM AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
07:59:12PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ANY QUESTIONS FOR MS. DOCK?
07:59:14PM SEEING NONE.
7:59:43PM >>ERIN MAEHR: GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
7:59:44PM BEFORE YOU WE HAVE REZ 21-114 FOR GAS WORX.
7:59:49PM MY NAME IS ERIN MAEHR WITH DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
7:59:52PM I HAVE REVIEWED THIS PROJECT FOR NATURAL RESOURCES.
7:59:55PM I'M JUST GOING TO GO OVER A FEW OTHER REASONS WHY NATURAL
7:59:59PM RESOURCES WAS INCONSISTENT WITH THIS CURRENT PROJECT.
8:00:04PM SO, CURRENTLY, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING CBD GUIDELINES
8:00:11PM WHICH THIS WOULD AFFECT OPEN SPACE.
8:00:13PM THE PROJECT HAS -- IS 27.23 ACRES AND GAS WORX IS PROPOSING
8:00:20PM 10% OF THE PARCEL BE OPEN SPACE, WHICH THESE ARE CBD
8:00:24PM REQUIREMENTS.
8:00:25PM MINIMUM 30% OF TOTAL OPEN SPACE MUST BE PLACED AT GRADE AND
8:00:29PM MEET THE DEFINITION OF PUBLIC OPEN SPACE.
8:00:32PM SO THIS WOULD MEAN THAT EACH OF THE 16 PARCELS WOULD GET
8:00:37PM APPROXIMATELY 1.4% OPEN SPACE.
8:00:40PM CURRENT CODE REQUIREMENTS WOULD BE FOR MULTIFAMILY
8:00:43PM GREENSPACE OVER SIX STORIES IS 30% OF THE PARCEL MINUS
8:00:48PM BUILDING FOOTPRINT.
8:00:49PM BECAUSE, AGAIN, THIS IS IN THE CBD.
8:00:54PM NATURAL RESOURCES STAFF, WE RECOMMEND THAT 15% OPEN SPACES
8:00:58PM PROVIDED OVER THE ENTIRE SITE.
8:01:00PM AND THIS WOULD MEAN THAT 6.3% OF EACH REMAINING OF THE 16
8:01:06PM PARCELS WOULD GET -- DID I SAY THAT RIGHT?
8:01:09PM EACH OF THE 16 PARCELS WOULD THEN GET 6.3% OPEN SPACE
8:01:13PM INSTEAD OF 1.4.
8:01:15PM AND THE REASON THAT WE ARE PROPOSING THESE CHANGES OUT OF
8:01:20PM THE CBD REQUIREMENTS ARE DUE TO A COUPLE OF SURROUNDING
8:01:25PM PDs IN THE AREA.
8:01:28PM THE ENCORE, REZ 14-20 HAD 15% OPEN SPACE REQUIREMENTS.
8:01:32PM AND ANOTHER PROJECT AT 1307 EAST 2nd AVENUE HAD 16.3%.
8:01:39PM AND THE GTE HEADQUARTERS HAD 40% GREENSPACE.
8:01:42PM THE OTHER REASON WE ARE PROPOSING THESE CHANGES IS DUE TO
8:01:48PM THE CITY OF TAMPA TREE CANOPY AND URBAN FOREST ANALYSIS
8:01:52PM REPORT FROM 2016.
8:01:55PM IT HAS A TABLE IN THAT PROJECT THAT SAYS THE AVERAGE
8:01:58PM GREENSPACE BY ZONING AND LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE CATEGORY.
8:02:03PM SO IN THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT, IN THE CHANNEL
8:02:06PM DISTRICT, THAT'S APPROXIMATELY 19%.
8:02:09PM AND THIS IS A COMBINATION OF TREE CANOPY AND GRASS AND
8:02:12PM SHRUB.
8:02:13PM AND IN YBOR CITY, YC-1, THE AVERAGE, OR THE TREE CANOPY
8:02:19PM GRASS SHRUB COVERAGE IS 16%.
8:02:21PM SO THIS IS WHY WE ARE PROPOSING THE 15% OPEN SPACE.
8:02:27PM AND THEN I'M JUST GOING TO GO ON HERE AND TALK ABOUT A
8:02:32PM COUPLE OF THE TREE CHARACTERISTICS.
8:02:34PM THIS IS THE SITE OF THE GAS WORX SITE WITH THE 16 DIFFERENT
8:02:38PM PARCELS.
8:02:39PM CURRENTLY THERE ARE 103 TREES ON THE SITE, WHICH THIS IS A
8:02:42PM VERY SPARSELY CANOPIED LOCATION.
8:02:44PM THERE'S NOT A LOT OF TREES ON 27 ACRES, AND 62% OF THOSE
8:02:50PM TREES ARE PALMS.
8:02:52PM SO THERE AREN'T A LOT OF OAKS BUT THERE ARE FIVE GRAND OAKS
8:02:56PM OR GRAND TREES ON THE SITE OVER THESE 27 ACRES.
8:03:01PM TWO OF THEM ARE HAZARDOUS, WHICH YOU'LL SEE IN THE RED DOTS
8:03:06PM ON YOUR ITEM IN FRONT OF YOU.
8:03:08PM THOSE TREES ARE BEING REMOVED.
8:03:10PM WE ARE OKAY WITH THAT.
8:03:12PM AND THERE ARE THREE NON-HAZARDOUS GRAND TREES.
8:03:15PM ONE OF THEM IS BEING PRESERVED.
8:03:17PM THAT'S OVER HERE ON E-5, ALL THE WAY TO THE EAST.
8:03:22PM AND THE OTHER ONE, NUMBER 283 IS ON W-4 PARCEL.
8:03:26PM THAT'S BEING REMOVED, OR THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING A
8:03:29PM WAIVER FOR THAT TREE REMOVAL.
8:03:31PM AND THEN WE HAVE W-5 WHICH IS SHOWN HERE IN THE LOWER PHOTO
8:03:36PM IN THE SCREEN, THIS IS TREE NUMBER 287.
8:03:38PM IT'S ON PARCEL W-5.
8:03:40PM IT IS A 45-INCH DIAMETER LIVE OAK RATED B-5.
8:03:45PM THIS IS LOOKING EAST FROM SCOTT STREET.
8:03:47PM THIS TREE IS WORTH 23 MITIGATION TREES.
8:03:50PM AND I JUST WANT TO SAY I FOUND A PICTURE EARLIER TODAY, AND
8:03:54PM I DO BELIEVE THESE TREES WERE PLANTED RIGHT AFTER THESE
8:03:58PM BUILDINGS WERE CONSTRUCTED, WHICH WOULD MEAN THE TREES ARE
8:04:01PM AROUND 54 YEARS OLD, I WOULD SAY.
8:04:05PM BECAUSE YOU MIGHT ASK ME THAT, I'M SURE.
8:04:09PM AND THEN SO THIS IS JUST TO SUM UP.
8:04:12PM WE RECOMMEND THAT THE WAIVER IS MODIFIED TO REMOVE ONLY ONE
8:04:16PM NON-HAZARDOUS GRAND LIVE OAK, TREE NUMBER 283, 40-INCH DBH
8:04:21PM RATED C-5, AS SHOWN ON THE TWO REASONABLE RECON EXHIBITS
8:04:27PM PROVIDED AT THE TIME OF INCREMENTAL.
8:04:29PM IN ADDITION, THE OPEN SPACE CHANGES AS WELL.
8:04:31PM THAT'S IT.
8:04:33PM DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
8:04:41PM >> REBECCA JOHNS.
8:04:50PM REGARDING FILE PH 22-75730, THIS IS THE DEVELOPMENT
8:04:55PM AGREEMENT THAT GOES ALONG WITH THE SUBJECT REZONING.
8:04:58PM YOU WERE PROVIDED A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THAT WAS UPLOADED
8:05:00PM INTO SIRE.
8:05:01PM WE HAVE MADE A FEW CHANGES TO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT TO
8:05:04PM MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THAT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT DOES NOT BIND
8:05:08PM THE CRA FOR ANY APPROVAL OR FOR ANY FUNDING.
8:05:11PM THE APPLICANT MAY BE APPROACHING THE CRA REQUESTING FUNDING.
8:05:15PM HOWEVER, THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IS CONTINGENT UPON A
8:05:19PM SEPARATE CRA FUNDING AGREEMENT BEING EXECUTED.
8:05:22PM SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS
8:05:25PM BETWEEN THE DEVELOPMENT -- BETWEEN THE DEVELOPER AND THE
8:05:28PM CITY OF TAMPA.
8:05:29PM IT IS NOT -- THE CRA IS NOT A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT.
8:05:36PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: I WAS GOING TO ASK, BECAUSE THAT IS A
8:05:38PM CRA --
8:05:39PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN GUDES, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
8:05:40PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: -- IT IS A CRA ZONE.
8:05:42PM I WANT TO MAKE SURE BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE
8:05:46PM AGREEMENT ON HAND, SOME BENEFITS FOR THE PROJECT.
8:05:51PM >>REBECCA JOHNS: CORRECT, THAT WILL BE REQUIRED IF THERE IS
8:05:54PM CRA FUNDING.
8:05:55PM THE DEVELOPER WILL TELL YOU MORE ABOUT THAT.
8:05:57PM I DO KNOW THEY STARTED DISCUSSIONS WITH MS. TRAVIS AND
8:06:01PM DRUMGO TO START THE CRA PROCESS.
8:06:06PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: IS THAT COUNCILMAN VIERA OR COUNCILMAN
8:06:09PM CARLSON?
8:06:10PM YOU'RE NOT UP ON THE SCREEN.
8:06:12PM COUNCILMAN CARLSON, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
8:06:17PM >>BILL CARLSON: ONE OF MY CONCERNS ALSO WAS THIS CRA THING.
8:06:22PM AND THIS IS NOT A MESSAGE TO THE DEVELOPER OR THE
8:06:26PM APPLICANTS.
8:06:27PM IT'S JUST A MESSAGE TO THE CITY.
8:06:30PM IMAGINE IF -- AND I'VE USED THIS ANALOGY BEFORE.
8:06:34PM IMAGINE THAT THE CITY HAD AN AGREEMENT WITH HABITAT FOR
8:06:36PM HUMANITY AND THE HABITAT PEOPLE READ IT AT THE LAST MINUTE
8:06:41PM AND REALIZED THAT THEY WERE OBLIGATED TO DO SOMETHING IN THE
8:06:45PM AGREEMENT.
8:06:46PM IT SURPRISED ME WHEN I SAW THIS THE OTHER DAY.
8:06:50PM WHOLE LIST OF PROJECTS FOR I THINK FOUR DIFFERENT CRA
8:06:53PM DISTRICTS ARE EXPECTED TO PAY FOR.
8:06:57PM YOU KNOW THAT THERE'S A LOT OF SENSITIVITY IN THE COMMUNITY
8:07:00PM ABOUT HOW THE CRA MONEY IS SPENT.
8:07:03PM IT'S A SPECIAL SET OF MONEY THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SPENT FOR
8:07:07PM SESSION CIRCUMSTANCES.
8:07:08PM AS BOARD MEMBERS, AT LEAST I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT ANY OF THIS
8:07:12PM UNTIL THREE DAYS AGO.
8:07:13PM I'M CERTAIN THAT THE COMMUNITY ADVISORY COMMITTEES AND
8:07:16PM OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT ANY OF THIS.
8:07:18PM I HAVE TWO QUESTIONS.
8:07:22PM ONE IS, WHO NEGOTIATED THIS WITHOUT INFORMING ANYBODY ON THE
8:07:25PM CRA?
8:07:25PM NUMBER TWO, I HAD ASKED ALSO -- AND I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO
8:07:31PM READ THROUGH THE NEW VERSION OF THE DOCUMENT COMPLETELY, BUT
8:07:34PM I ASKED THAT THIS EXCEPTION SHOULD BE QUALIFIED BECAUSE CITY
8:07:41PM OR CRA MONEY THAT WOULD PAY FOR THIS.
8:07:43PM ONE OF THE CONCERNS AND COMPLAINTS WE GET ABOUT CRA MONEY IS
8:07:46PM THAT THE CRA SHOULD NOT PAY FOR THINGS THE CITY WOULD HAVE
8:07:49PM OTHERWISE PAID FOR.
8:07:50PM IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE A LOT OF THE THINGS ON THE LIST COULD BE
8:07:54PM PAID FOR BY THE CITY INSTEAD OF THE CRA.
8:07:57PM SO I'D RATHER THE DOCUMENT SAY THAT THE CITY OR THE CRA
8:08:01PM WOULD PAY FOR IT.
8:08:02PM THAT WAY IT EVEN MORE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THE CRA IS
8:08:06PM OBLIGATED.
8:08:07PM TWO QUESTIONS.
8:08:08PM WHO NEGOTIATED THIS WITHOUT TELLING THE CRA, ANYBODY IN CRA?
8:08:11PM SECOND, CAN WE MAKE IT SO IT IS THE CITY AND THE CRA SO IT
8:08:14PM DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THE CRA IS OBLIGATED?
8:08:17PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: MS. TRAVIS.
8:08:19PM I'M SORRY, DID YOU WANT --
8:08:23PM >> I WAS JUST GOING TO ANSWER MOST LIKELY THE SECOND
8:08:26PM QUESTION.
8:08:26PM THE CRA WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THIS BECAUSE THIS DOES NOT BIND
8:08:30PM THE CRA.
8:08:31PM THIS SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT IT DOES NOT BIND THE CRA AND
8:08:35PM IT SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT IT'S CONTINGENT ON A CRA FUNDING
8:08:40PM AGREEMENT BEING NEGOTIATED IF THE CRA APPROVES IT.
8:08:44PM THERE'S NOTHING IN HERE THAT OBLIGATES THE CRA OR THE CITY
8:08:52PM TO PAY FOR THESE IMPROVEMENTS.
8:08:56PM >>BILL CARLSON: THE POINT IS THAT IF IT'S CONTINGENT ON CRA
8:09:00PM FUNDING AND NOT CITY OR CRA FUNDING, THEN THE CRA DECIDES
8:09:04PM NOT TO FUND IT, THEN THAT IS A BREACH OF THE AGREEMENT OR A
8:09:08PM FAILURE IN THE AGREEMENT.
8:09:11PM AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE CRA SHOULDN'T BE INVOLVED IN
8:09:15PM THAT AT ALL OR AT LEAST IT SHOULD BE THE CITY OR THE CRA,
8:09:19PM BECAUSE IF WE GO TO THE CACs AND UPROAR AND CACs DON'T
8:09:26PM WANT TO COVER SOME PART AND THE COMMUNITY DOES NOT WANT TO
8:09:29PM COVER, THERE'S NO OUTLET FOR THE CITY TO TAKE OVER INSTEAD.
8:09:32PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: MR. MASSEY.
8:09:33PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: I'LL LET MS. JOHNS AND MS. TRAVIS CORRECT
8:09:37PM ME, BUT THERE IS A REVISED AGREEMENT THAT I DON'T THINK
8:09:40PM YOU'VE SEEN, COUNCILMAN CARLSON, THAT MAKES IT REALLY CLEAR
8:09:43PM REALLY THAT NEITHER THE CITY NOR THE CRA ARE BOUND TO FUND
8:09:46PM ANY OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE LISTED IN
8:09:49PM THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.
8:09:51PM IT DOES PROVIDE, THERE IS A TWO-YEAR PERIOD, I BELIEVE, FOR
8:09:54PM THE DEVELOPER TO NEGOTIATE WITH EITHER OR BOTH THE CITY AND
8:09:58PM THE CRA FOR FUNDING FOR THOSE IMPROVEMENTS.
8:10:03PM >>BILL CARLSON: SO YOU ALREADY PUT THAT IN.
8:10:11PM >> I COULDN'T HEAR WHAT HE SAID.
8:10:15PM I COULDN'T HEAR WHAT HIS QUESTION WAS.
8:10:17PM >>BILL CARLSON: SORRY.
8:10:19PM THERE IS A LAG HERE.
8:10:21PM I HAVE TALKED TO MORRIS ABOUT THIS A FEW DAYS AGO AND HE WAS
8:10:27PM GOING TO TRY TO MAKE IT THE CITY OR CRA.
8:10:30PM I HADN'T HAD THE CHANCE TO READ ENTIRELY THE NEW VERSION
8:10:34PM BECAUSE IT CAME OUT A COUPLE OF HOURS AGO.
8:10:36PM AS LONG AS IT SAYS CITY OR CRA.
8:10:38PM IF THIS IS A REASON, IF THE CRA DECIDES NOT TO FUND
8:10:42PM SOMETHING, I DON'T WANT THAT TO BE THE REASON THAT THIS
8:10:44PM WHOLE PROJECT DOESN'T GO FORWARD WHEN THE CITY COULD HAVE
8:10:47PM FUNDED IT AND ALSO THE CRA HAS NOT BEEN A PART OF THIS
8:10:51PM AGREEMENT OR THIS NEGOTIATION AT ALL.
8:10:53PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: I THINK -- AND AGAIN, I'LL DEFER TO THE
8:10:56PM FOLKS THAT NEGOTIATED THE AGREEMENT, BUT I THINK THE FUNDING
8:11:00PM OF THESE INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS ARE STILL UNCLEAR.
8:11:02PM SO THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT MAY HAVE TO BE AMENDED AT SOME
8:11:05PM JUNCTURE.
8:11:06PM I BELIEVE IT ALSO CONTEMPLATES INFRASTRUCTURE AGREEMENT THAT
8:11:09PM HAS TO BE NEGOTIATED THAT HAS NOT BEEN NEGOTIATED YET.
8:11:12PM ANY POTENTIAL CRA FUNDING AGREEMENT WITH NO OBLIGATION ON
8:11:15PM THE PART OF THE CRA TO FUND.
8:11:17PM THOSE ARE ALL THINGS TO BE WORKED OUT AND TO BE DETERMINED
8:11:20PM IN A TWO-YEAR PERIOD, COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
8:11:23PM >>BILL CARLSON: SORRY.
8:11:24PM IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE WITH THE ANALOGY WITH HABITAT FOR
8:11:27PM HUMANITY, SORRY, BAD ANALOGY, IF THE CITY WAS NEGOTIATING
8:11:32PM AND THEY SAID WE'LL PAY SOME PART OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING,
8:11:36PM THEY WOULDN'T PUT A CONTINGENCY FOR HABITAT TO BE ON THE
8:11:39PM HOOK OR BE BLAMED IF THE DEAL DOESN'T GO THROUGH.
8:11:42PM THE CITY WOULD SAY, WE'RE GOING TO COVER THIS IN SOME WAY
8:11:46PM AND, BY THE WAY, WE'RE GOING TO ASK HABITAT TO PARTICIPATE
8:11:49PM WITH US.
8:11:49PM BECAUSE THE CRA IS A COMPLETE SEPARATE ENTITY.
8:11:52PM SO THE CRA SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD SUCH A BIG ROLE IN THIS,
8:11:56PM ESPECIALLY WITHOUT CRA BOARD EVEN BEING INFORMED OF IT.
8:12:00PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: MS. TRAVIS.
8:12:03PM >> IF I MAY, COUNCILMAN CARLSON'S QUESTION ABOUT WHO
8:12:06PM NEGOTIATED THIS AGREEMENT AND WITH THE CRA, I AM THE PERSON
8:12:12PM THAT HAS BEEN COMMUNICATING WITH THE DEVELOPER AND HIS
8:12:16PM CONSULTANTS AND HIS ATTORNEY.
8:12:17PM THERE IS NO FORMAL AGREEMENT RIGHT NOW.
8:12:19PM WE'RE NOT AT THE LEVEL OF DETAIL TO OUTLINE WHAT
8:12:22PM SPECIFICALLY WE ARE.
8:12:23PM WE KNOW THERE IS AN ASK -- THERE WILL BE AN ASK OF THE CRA.
8:12:27PM WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THAT.
8:12:29PM WE DO NOT HAVE IT FIGURED OUT AND THERE'S NOTHING CONCRETE
8:12:33PM FOR ME TO PRESENT TO THE CAC OR TO THE CRA BOARD AT THIS
8:12:37PM TIME.
8:12:40PM THE APPLICANT'S ATTORNEY CAN SPEAK TO MORE WHY THEY NEEDED
8:12:43PM THIS AS A PART OF THE AGREEMENT.
8:12:45PM IN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS, IT IS REALLY HARD WHEN YOU HAVE
8:12:47PM DEVELOPMENTS OF THIS SIZE, IF YOU'RE THINKING OF DIFFERENT
8:12:50PM FUNDING SOURCES TO MAKE THE PROJECT HOLISTIC AND COMPLETE,
8:12:54PM THE AGREEMENT NEEDS TO AT LEAST CONTEMPLATE THAT YOU ARE
8:12:57PM GOING TO TALK TO ANOTHER AGENCY FOR FUNDING.
8:13:00PM I UNDERSTAND THE REQUEST TO PUT CITY OR CRA CAN CONTRIBUTE
8:13:06PM TO THE PROJECT THAT COUNCILMAN CARLSON IS ASKING FOR, BUT
8:13:11PM THIS DOES NOT BIND THE CRA IN ANY WAY.
8:13:14PM I CAN'T APPROVE ANYTHING WITHOUT THE CRA BOARD.
8:13:18PM SO IT WOULD COME BEFORE THE CRA BOARD.
8:13:20PM THIS IS MERELY TO CONTINUE THIS DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SCALE
8:13:25PM MOVING FORWARD ON A PATH TO COMPLETION.
8:13:28PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN GUDES.
8:13:29PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: I THINK THE QUESTION IS, AND I KIND OF SEE
8:13:33PM MR. CARLSON'S POINT, IS THAT I'M JUST HANDED THIS PACKET.
8:13:37PM YOU SAY IT CAME OUT A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO.
8:13:39PM SO THIS CAME OUT A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO, I MEAN, THIS IS A LOT
8:13:46PM TO READ IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.
8:13:48PM WHEN I OPENED THE PACKET, ALL I SEE IS CRA, CRA WHEN I READ
8:13:52PM IT.
8:13:57PM >>REBECCA JOHNS: THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WAS LOADED TWO
8:14:02PM WEEKS AGO PRIOR TO THE HEARING.
8:14:03PM PURSUANT TO COUNCILMAN CARLSON'S CONCERNS, WE WENT BACK THIS
8:14:06PM WEEK AND WORKED WITH THE DEVELOPER AND REVISED THE AGREEMENT
8:14:10PM TO SPECIFICALLY CLARIFY THAT THE CRA WAS NOT OBLIGATED TO
8:14:17PM APPROVE ANY OF THIS, TO PAY FOR ANY OF THIS UNTIL THERE WAS
8:14:20PM A CRA FUNDING AGREEMENT.
8:14:21PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: MY ONLY STILL CONCERN IS, THIS IS GOING TO
8:14:25PM BE A MAJOR PROJECT FOR THE CITY, IS IT NOT?
8:14:29PM >> ABSOLUTELY.
8:14:29PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: THIS IS GOING TO BE A MAJOR PROJECT FOR THE
8:14:31PM CITY.
8:14:32PM AND WE HAVE A DOCUMENT OF THIS MAGNITUDE.
8:14:34PM YOU KNOW HOW MUCH STUFF I READ.
8:14:36PM >> IT WAS PRESENTED TWO WEEKS AGO.
8:14:38PM IT WAS LOAD INTO SIRE TWO WEEKS AGO.
8:14:40PM THE DOCUMENT.
8:14:41PM THE ONLY THING THAT HAS CHANGED IS FURTHER CLARIFICATION
8:14:43PM THAT THE CRA IS NOT FINANCIALLY BOUND TO ANYTHING IN THIS
8:14:47PM AGREEMENT.
8:14:47PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: IN THAT CASE, I ONLY WISH THAT CALL, E-MAIL
8:14:51PM US, MAKE SURE WE CHECK WITH THIS KIND OF PROJECT, WITH THREE
8:14:54PM PROJECTS ON HERE TONIGHT TO BE VOTED ON POSSIBLY, I HAVEN'T
8:14:59PM GONE THROUGH THIS WHOLE DOCUMENT.
8:15:03PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: CLARIFY ONE THING, YOU ARE NOT VOTING ON
8:15:05PM THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT TONIGHT.
8:15:06PM THERE ARE TWO PUBLIC HEARINGS.
8:15:08PM THIS IS JUST THE FIRST HEARING.
8:15:09PM YOU WILL NOT BE VOTING ON THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FORMALLY
8:15:13PM UNTIL THE NEXT FINAL HEARING.
8:15:16PM UNDER STATE LAW, WE HAVE TO HAVE TWO PUBLIC HEARINGS BEFORE
8:15:19PM YOU CAN ADOPT THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.
8:15:28PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ARE YOU FINISHED, COUNCILMAN GUDES?
8:15:30PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: I'M FINISHED.
8:15:31PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN CARLSON, ARE YOU FINISHED?
8:15:34PM >>BILL CARLSON: JUST TO REITERATE AGAIN, SORRY TO BE A
8:15:38PM BROKEN RECORD, I THINK IT'S IN BAD FORM AND DISRESPECTFUL TO
8:15:44PM OBLIGATE A THIRD PARTY AND EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT SIGNING THAT
8:15:49PM THEY WILL DO SOMETHING.
8:15:51PM WHAT IT SHOULD SAY INSTEAD IS THAT THE CITY WILL DO ITS BEST
8:15:57PM TO WORK WITH THIRD PARTIES TO GET THE FUNDING FOR THE
8:15:59PM PROJECTS.
8:16:00PM AND THEN THE CITY WOULD GO TO THE CRA.
8:16:05PM WE SIT AS A CRA BOARD IN OTHER MEETINGS, AND THE OTHER WAY
8:16:11PM TO DO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TO COME TO THE CRA BOARD AND HAVE
8:16:14PM AN INITIAL CONVERSATION ABOUT IT.
8:16:17PM BUT AT LEAST WITH ME, I HAD NO CONVERSATIONS WITH ANYBODY
8:16:20PM ABOUT IT UNTIL A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO.
8:16:22PM ONCE WE TOOK THIS OUT OF THE CAC AND OTHERS, THEY MAY SAY
8:16:26PM YAY OR NAY, BUT ALSO WHAT THEY MAY SAY IS, HEY, CERTAIN
8:16:30PM THINGS HERE SHOULD BE PAID BY THE CITY NOT THE CRA.
8:16:33PM I WOULD JUST ASK IN THE FUTURE THAT THE CITY BE RESPECTFUL
8:16:36PM OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE CRA AND THAT WE
8:16:41PM UNDERSTAND THAT THE CRA IS A SEPARATE ENTITY JUST LIKE WE
8:16:44PM WOULD NOT OBLIGATE BANK OF AMERICA OR HABITAT OR ANYBODY
8:16:49PM ELSE.
8:16:53PM BECAUSE THERE IS A WHOLE APPARATUS THAT MANAGES IT.
8:16:56PM AGAIN, AS I SAID AT THE BEGINNING, IT'S NO CRITICISM OF ANY
8:16:59PM OF THE PROPOSALS.
8:17:01PM IT'S JUST FROM A CITY POINT OF VIEW, I THINK WE NEED TO
8:17:05PM REMEMBER THAT THOSE ARE TWO SEPARATE ENTITIES AND WE CAN'T
8:17:09PM --
8:17:10PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN CARLSON, YOUR COMMENTS ARE DULY
8:17:13PM NOTED.
8:17:13PM FROM MY TIME ON CRA, CACs, NO MONEYS ARE OBLIGATED WITHOUT
8:17:20PM FIRST BEING APPROVED BY THAT CAC CRA.
8:17:24PM ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
8:17:28PM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
8:17:29PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WE HAVE A CRA MEETING ON THE 18th.
8:17:35PM IS THIS SOMETHING YOU PLAN TO BRING TO TALK TO THE BOARD
8:17:38PM ABOUT?
8:17:41PM >> NO.
8:17:42PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
8:17:43PM JUST CURIOUS.
8:17:44PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THERE IS NO CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT WITH THE
8:17:47PM CRA TO BRING IT TO THE CRA BOARD.
8:17:49PM AM I WRONG OR RIGHT?
8:17:52PM >> THAT'S CORRECT.
8:17:53PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: WE'RE JUST NOT AT THAT JUNCTURE.
8:17:55PM >> AS SOON AS WE GET MORE DETAILS AND WE GET TO THAT POINT,
8:17:58PM I CANNOT NEGOTIATE AS YOUR CRA DIRECTOR OR AS THE
8:18:02PM ADMINISTRATIVE DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY WITHOUT
8:18:04PM BRINGING THAT TO THE CAC TO GET THEIR CONCURRENCE TO MAKE
8:18:07PM SURE THAT IT IS SOMETHING THAT THEY WANT TO SUPPORT AND THAT
8:18:10PM THE CRA BOARD WANTS TO SUPPORT.
8:18:13PM OUR INITIAL CONVERSATIONS HAVE BEEN AROUND THE OVERALL PLAN
8:18:17PM AND WHAT YOU'RE CONSIDERING TONIGHT FOR THE ZONING, THE
8:18:20PM MASTER PLANNING, IF YOU WILL, OF THIS LARGE-SCALE
8:18:23PM DEVELOPMENT.
8:18:23PM ANY FURTHER NEGOTIATIONS THAT WE START TO OUTLINE AND PUT
8:18:27PM INTO AN AGREEMENT WILL BE BROUGHT BEFORE YOU.
8:18:29PM AND I WILL MEET WITH YOU ONE ON ONE AS I OFTEN DO WITH ANY
8:18:33PM LARGE-SCALE INITIATIVE.
8:18:39PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS OF MS. JOHNS OR
8:18:41PM MS. TRAVIS?
8:18:43PM >>REBECCA JOHNS: I WANTED TO MAKE ONE LAST POINT THAT THIS
8:18:45PM AGREEMENT WILL BE UPDATED PRIOR TO THE SECOND HEARING BASED
8:18:48PM ON THE CHANGE OF ENTITLEMENTS IN THE REZONING AND ANY
8:18:52PM CHANGES TO THE REZONING SITE PLAN.
8:18:54PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
8:18:55PM NOW WE HAVE HEARD 12, 13, AND 14.
8:19:09PM IS THIS CORRECT?
8:19:10PM >>MORRIS MASSEY: FROM STAFF.
8:19:11PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: PETITIONER, YOUR TURN.
8:19:14PM UNLESS IT'S REQUESTED, LET'S PROCEED AS WE ARE.
8:19:49PM FORWARD.
8:19:54PM PETITIONER.
8:19:57PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
8:19:58PM MY NAME IS TYLER HUDSON.
8:20:02PM 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
8:20:04PM IT IS AN HONOR TO BE HERE THIS EVENING ON BEHALF OF THE GAS
8:20:06PM WORX PROJECT.
8:20:07PM I WANT TO THANK COUNCIL FOR ALLOWING US TO MOVE UP ON THE
8:20:10PM AGENDA.
8:20:11PM I PROMISE WE WILL BE VERY EFFICIENT WITH OUR TIME.
8:20:13PM I KNOW IT'S BEEN A LONG DAY AND A LITTLE BIT OF A LONG
8:20:16PM EVENING.
8:20:16PM WE HAVE TWO ITEM OPENS, TWO OPEN QUASI-ITEMS.
8:20:22PM I WOULD LIKE TO BORROW FIVE MINUTES FROM REBUTTAL TO GIVE US
8:20:25PM 35 MINUTES IN OUR MAIN PRESENTATION.
8:20:27PM WE REHEARSED THIS AT 30 MINUTES.
8:20:29PM WE'LL TAKE EVERY EFFORT TO GET IT DONE EVEN FASTER THAN
8:20:33PM THAT.
8:20:33PM I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE THE PROJECT TEAM THAT'S BEEN WORKING
8:20:36PM ON THIS PROJECT FOR OVER TWO AND A HALF YEARS NOW.
8:20:40PM GAS WORX IS A VISION OF A DEVELOPMENT PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN
8:20:43PM DARRYL SHAW AND KETTLER.
8:20:46PM GRANT TYRELL WITH KETTLER IS GOING TO BE SPEAKING ON THEIR
8:20:49PM BEHALF.
8:20:50PM AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF PLANNING AND DESIGN WORK GOES
8:20:52PM OBVIOUSLY INTO A PROJECT OF THIS MAGNITUDE AND THOSE EFFORTS
8:20:56PM HAVE BEEN LED BY SASAKI, REPRESENTED BY ALAN WARD -- HE'S
8:20:59PM GOING TO SPEAK AFTER ME -- AS WELL AS DESIGN COLLECTIVE,
8:21:02PM REPRESENTED BY NICK MANSPERGER WHO WILL SPEAK AFTER ALAN.
8:21:07PM WE HAVE A BACKBONE OF SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS THAT HAVE
8:21:10PM WORKED ON THE APPLICATION FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.
8:21:13PM RANDY COEN IS OUR TRANSPORTATION EXPERT WITH COEN AND
8:21:16PM COMPANY.
8:21:16PM BOHLER IS OUR CIVIL ENGINEERING FIRM REPRESENTED HERE BY
8:21:20PM GREG ROTH.
8:21:21PM FINALLY, WE HAVE RICKY PETERIKA, THE FOUNDER OF DARK MOSS,
8:21:25PM WHO IS THE PROJECT ARBORIST.
8:21:27PM THE PROJECT THAT WE'RE PRESENTING HERE, THE THREE ITEMS THAT
8:21:31PM ARE BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING ARE REALLY THE CULMINATION OF
8:21:34PM MULTIPLE APPROVALS THAT THIS COUNCIL HAS ALREADY PROVIDED TO
8:21:37PM THE PROJECT, PERHAPS A LITTLE MORE INDIRECT, LESS SPECIFICS
8:21:40PM THAN THE APPROVALS WE'RE SEEKING THIS EVENING.
8:21:43PM ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ONES HAPPENED, I BELIEVE FILED IN
8:21:45PM MID 2020, MAYBE JUST AFTER THE PANDEMIC STARTED.
8:21:48PM PDA, FLEXIBLE ZONING INSTRUMENTS THAT LaCHONE DID A GREAT
8:21:53PM JOB DESCRIBING.
8:21:54PM THOSE ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FOR PROJECTS OF 50 ACRES OR LARGER.
8:21:57PM THERE AREN'T A LOT OF 50-ACRE TRACTS OF LAND LEFT IN THE
8:22:01PM CITY OF TAMPA.
8:22:01PM THIS COUNCIL WAS GRACIOUS ENOUGH TO LOWER THAT THRESHOLD
8:22:04PM DOWN TO 20 ACRES.
8:22:05PM WE PROMISED AT THAT HEARING THAT WE WOULD BE GOOD STEWARDS
8:22:08PM OF THAT FLEXIBILITY AND BRING A PROJECT THAT SHOWED WHY THAT
8:22:11PM FLEXIBILITY IS REQUIRED.
8:22:13PM IN ADDITION TO THAT PDA THRESHOLD REDUCTION THIS COUNCIL HAS
8:22:16PM APPROVED MULTIPLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS.
8:22:21PM THE SITE IS REALLY A PATCHWORK OF HEAVY INDUSTRIAL, LIGHT
8:22:24PM INDUSTRIAL AND THEN SOME EXTREMELY LOW DENSITY MIXED USE
8:22:28PM FUTURE LAND USE.
8:22:29PM THIS COUNCIL HAS APPROVED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN MAP AMENDMENTS
8:22:32PM FOR OVER A DOZEN ACRES GOING UP TO RMU 100, UME 60, AND
8:22:38PM FULLY REALLY DEINDUSTRIALIZING THE AREA, WHICH IS CONSISTENT
8:22:44PM WITH WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT JUST TO
8:22:45PM THE SOUTH.
8:22:46PM FINALLY, I WOULD NOTE THAT COUNCIL MAY RECALL LAST DECEMBER
8:22:47PM WE WERE HERE FOR WHAT WE CALL PHASE ONE OF GAS WORX.
8:22:51PM THAT IS REALLY AT THE MOST NORTHWESTERLY PART OF THE
8:22:53PM PROJECT.
8:22:53PM IT'S WEST OF NUCCIO.
8:22:54PM THAT'S ABOUT 720 DWELLING UNITS, 20,000 SQUARE FEET OF
8:22:58PM RETAIL THAT THIS COUNCIL APPROVED BACK IN DECEMBER.
8:23:01PM THAT'S A PD.
8:23:01PM THAT'S NOT BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING.
8:23:03PM THAT'S SEPARATE.
8:23:03PM ONE DAY WE MIGHT WANT TO BRING IT BACK INTO THIS PDA.
8:23:08PM ALL OF THOSE APPROVALS ARE WHAT PUT US IN THE POSITION TO
8:23:10PM ASK FOR YOUR APPROVAL ON THESE TWO ITEMS TONIGHT.
8:23:13PM JUST TO REITERATE, I SAID TWO ITEMS.
8:23:16PM NOW I HAVE SOMETHING WITH FOUR NUMBERS.
8:23:19PM LET ME EXPLAIN EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE APPROVING THIS EVENING.
8:23:21PM THE FIRST THING IS THE RIGHT-OF-WAY VACATING THAT ROSS
8:23:24PM ALLUDED TO.
8:23:25PM YOU CAN SEE A LITTLE BIT ON SCREEN.
8:23:28PM THAT IS FOR THIS PORTION OF WHAT WAS MISSISSIPPI AVENUE.
8:23:30PM UP HERE IS FOR 3rd AVENUE.
8:23:32PM THE REASON WHY WE WANT TO VACATE THAT RIGHT-OF-WAY BECAUSE
8:23:35PM IT WILL ALLOW US TO PUT IN MIXED-USE TRAILS THAT WILL GO
8:23:38PM ALONG ADAMO DRIVE.
8:23:40PM FOR 3rd AVENUE, WE'RE TRYING TO VACATE THAT TO PUT IN
8:23:43PM PLACE A PEDESTRIAN ONLY THOROUGHFARE THAT WE'RE CALLING THE
8:23:46PM PASEO, WHICH ALAN WILL TALK TO YOU ABOUT IN A LITTLE BIT.
8:23:50PM SECOND THING IS THE PDA REZONING ITSELF.
8:23:53PM RIGHT NOW THIS LAND IS A MIXTURES, HODGEPODGE OF VARIOUS
8:23:56PM ZONING CATEGORIES.
8:23:57PM SEEKING TO PUT ALL 26 ACRES UNDER A PDA SITE PLAN.
8:24:01PM IT'S CONCEPTUAL.
8:24:02PM IT'S A BUBBLE PLAN.
8:24:03PM DOESN'T HAVE EXACTLY WHERE THE TRASH COMPACTOR IS GOING TO
8:24:05PM BE AND WHERE THE PARKING SPACES ARE BUT ALLOWS US TO DEVELOP
8:24:09PM UP TO A MAXIMUM OF 5.2 MILLION SQUARE FEET.
8:24:13PM RANGES OF WHERE WE THINK WE'LL END UP, OFFICE DEVELOPMENT,
8:24:16PM RETAIL DEVELOPMENT, DWELLING UNITS.
8:24:17PM THAT'S ACCOMPANIED BY A DESIGN GUIDELINES BOOK THAT I THINK
8:24:20PM AT FINAL COUNT GOT TO AROUND 86 PAGES.
8:24:23PM THAT'S THE SET OF RULES.
8:24:24PM THAT'S OUR PLAYBOOK.
8:24:25PM WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE USING THE STANDARD CHAPTER 27 RULES
8:24:28PM FOR WHICH WE WOULD BE SEEKING WAIVERS AS THIS COUNCIL SEES
8:24:31PM ONCE OR TWICE ON A USUAL THURSDAY EVENING.
8:24:33PM WE'RE IMPOSING OUR OWN DESIGN REGULATIONS ON OURSELVES.
8:24:38PM THAT'S WHAT ALAN WILL TALK ABOUT NOW.
8:24:40PM BORING PART IS OVER.
8:24:41PM TURN IT OVER TO ALAN AND HE'LL WALK THROUGH GAS WORX.
8:24:50PM >> GOOD EVENING.
8:24:51PM I'M ALAN WARD WITH SASAKI.
8:24:55PM I'LL SUMMARIZE THE VISION AND PLAN FOR THE GAS WORX
8:24:59PM DISTRICT.
8:24:59PM THIS IS A VIEW LOOKING SOUTH FROM YBOR CITY TOWARDS
8:25:05PM DOWNTOWN.
8:25:05PM YOU CAN SEE THE SITE IS OUTLINED IN RED, 27 OR SO ACRES.
8:25:09PM YOU SEE THE SITE TODAY IS MOSTLY INDUSTRIAL USES OR VACANT
8:25:13PM LAND.
8:25:13PM AND I'LL COVER THESE FOUR TOPICS TO SUMMARIZE OUR PLAN
8:25:17PM BEGINNING WITH THE HISTORIC CONTEXT.
8:25:19PM THERE ARE SOME INTERESTING OLDER IMAGES TO SEE THE EVOLUTION
8:25:24PM OF THIS SITE.
8:25:25PM HERE IS THE SITE IN 1938.
8:25:27PM YOU CAN SEE DOMINATED BY THE GAS WORX FACILITY ITSELF AND
8:25:30PM THE GRID WAS NOT TOTALLY INTACT HERE EXCEPT WEST OF THE
8:25:34PM RAILROAD RIGHT-OF-WAY.
8:25:36PM YOU CAN SEE THERE WAS INTACT THE CITY GRID.
8:25:39PM WE'RE GOING TO RESTORE THAT AND BRING THAT BACK AS PART OF
8:25:42PM THIS PLAN.
8:25:44PM HERE ARE VIEWS IN THE 1920s LOOKING NORTH FROM 4th
8:25:48PM AVENUE.
8:25:48PM THAT IS THE FLORIDA BREWERY BUILDING IN THE FOREGROUND AND
8:25:51PM THEN THE FABRIC AND TEXTURE OF YBOR CITY NORTH OF THIS SITE.
8:25:55PM SO WE'RE SOUTH OF THAT AREA.
8:25:57PM THEN WHEN YOU LOOK SOUTH ON, THAT SHOULD SAY 15th STREET
8:26:01PM OR CHANNELSIDE LATER, YOU CAN SEE LARGELY VACANT, EXCEPT FOR
8:26:05PM THE GAS WORX FACILITY AND SOME WAREHOUSE BUILDINGS.
8:26:09PM SO HERE WE ARE IN 1920s AGAIN.
8:26:14PM THERE IS THE GAS WORX FACILITY DOMINATING THE SITE.
8:26:21PM HERE IS THE EDGE OF YBOR CITY LOOKING SOUTH FROM 6th
8:26:22PM AVENUE, LARGELY VACANT AT THAT TIME.
8:26:24PM THIS WAS KIND OF A COLLECTION AREA FOR INDUSTRIAL USES,
8:26:27PM PIECES OF CITY INFRASTRUCTURE, HIGHWAYS AND SO FORTH.
8:26:30PM OUR GOAL HERE IS TO KNIT THIS BACK TOGETHER AND RECONNECT IT
8:26:33PM TO THE CITY.
8:26:34PM HERE'S A VIEW LOOKING NORTH.
8:26:37PM THAT'S THE FLORIDA BREWERY BUILDING TOWARDS THE CENTER ON
8:26:41PM 5th AVENUE, AND HERE YOU SEE THE OLDER HISTORIC FABRIC
8:26:45PM THAT WAS REMOVED DURING URBAN RENEWAL FOR TAMPA PARK
8:26:48PM APARTMENTS, WHICH WE'RE NOW REINSTATING THAT URBAN FABRIC
8:26:53PM WITH NEW REDEVELOPMENT TO BRING IT BACK TO THAT KIND OF
8:26:56PM SCALE AND CHARACTER.
8:26:57PM SO THIS WAS THIS COLLECTION AREA OF ALL THESE INDUSTRIAL
8:27:01PM USES.
8:27:02PM IT'S STRATEGICALLY LOCATED AND WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY HERE
8:27:05PM TO MAKE CONNECTIONS AND KIND OF REPAIR THIS PART OF THE CITY
8:27:09PM AND MAKE CONNECTIONS NORTH AND EAST TO HISTORIC YBOR CITY.
8:27:13PM TO THE WEST, TO THE ENCORE DISTRICT AND THEN IT EXTENDS
8:27:17PM SOUTH TO THE CHANNEL DISTRICT AND TIE THESE AREAS TOGETHER
8:27:19PM WITH TRAILS, PATHS, NEW URBAN STREETS.
8:27:22PM SO THE FIRST AND KEY ELEMENT IS TO BRING BACK THE GRID,
8:27:28PM WHICH WAS LARGELY LOST OVER THE YEARS WITH TWO KEY
8:27:31PM CONNECTIONS.
8:27:33PM YOU SEE 4th AVENUE IS STRAIGHTENED OUT.
8:27:36PM IT REPLACES THE ROUNDABOUT, THE LARGE CURVING STREET.
8:27:39PM MAKES A LINK OVER THE RAILROAD TO NICK NUCCIO PARKWAY TO THE
8:27:43PM WEST.
8:27:44PM LIKEWISE, ADAMO DRIVE IS LINKED OVER THE RAILROAD TO NICK
8:27:49PM NUCCIO PARKWAY AS WELL.
8:27:51PM TWO IMPORTANT CONNECTIONS MADE WITHIN THE PATTERN OF THE
8:27:54PM GRID AND REESTABLISHING THE GRID IN THE HEART OF THE PLAN AS
8:27:59PM WELL AS WHERE POSSIBLE ON THE TAMPA PARK SITE, TAMPA PARK
8:28:02PM PARTICLES SITE.
8:28:02PM AT THE CENTER, YOU SEE THAT DOT.
8:28:04PM THAT MEANS THIS WHOLE AREA IS WITHIN A FIVE-MINUTE WALK
8:28:07PM BASED ON THAT RADIUS.
8:28:09PM THAT DOT IS ON A KEY PARCEL AND KEY BUILDING, OLD WAREHOUSE
8:28:12PM BUILDING.
8:28:13PM WE'LL TALK ABOUT HOW THAT BECOMES REUSED AS PART OF THE
8:28:16PM HEART OF THIS REDEVELOPMENT.
8:28:18PM SO WITH THESE NEW STREETS, THEY ARE SCALED TO BE COMPATIBLE
8:28:23PM WITH HISTORIC YBOR STREETS, TWO LANES, ONE LANE EACH
8:28:27PM DIRECTION, SHADED SIDEWALKS.
8:28:29PM SO IT TAKES THE SCALE AND CHARACTER OF HISTORIC YBOR INTO
8:28:33PM THIS DISTRICT WITH THE NEW STREETS AND THEY ARE ALSO SCALED
8:28:36PM TO BE VERY COMPATIBLE FOR THE BICYCLIST AS WELL.
8:28:41PM THERE ALSO ARE SOME IMPORTANT TRAIL CONNECTIONS THAT WE CAN
8:28:44PM ADD TO OR SUPPLEMENT.
8:28:46PM YOU SEE THE GREEN LINE ON THE BOTTOM IS THE EXISTING SELMON
8:28:48PM GREENWAY ALONG THE NORTH SIDE OF ADAMO.
8:28:51PM IT LOOPS UP TO CHANNELSIDE, BACK DOWN TO THE SELMON
8:28:57PM EXPRESSWAY.
8:28:57PM UNDER IT IS A RENDERING OF IT ON THE RIGHT.
8:28:59PM WE'RE ADDING AN EAST-WEST CONNECTOR ON THAT NORTH SIDE OF
8:29:03PM ADAMO THAT YOU HEARD ABOUT EARLIER IN THAT VACATED LAND.
8:29:06PM IT EXTENDS WEST OVER THE RAILROAD, CONNECTS OVER TO NICK
8:29:09PM NUCCIO PARKWAY.
8:29:10PM CONNECTS SELMON WEST TO THE PARKWAY.
8:29:12PM ANOTHER NEW TRAIL IN THE PLAN IS ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THAT
8:29:16PM CURVING RAILROAD RIGHT-OF-WAY.
8:29:18PM AND THAT IS A REALLY INTRIGUING CONNECTION BECAUSE IT LINKS
8:29:21PM YOU FROM THE RIVERWALK, WATER STREET IN THE SOUTH, ALL THE
8:29:24PM WAY UP TO THE HEART OF YBOR CITY.
8:29:26PM SO THESE ARE IMPORTANT NEW CONNECTIONS AND LINKAGES THAT ARE
8:29:30PM BROUGHT TO THIS AREA.
8:29:31PM SO WITH THIS OVERLAY OF THE NEW STREETS IT BRINGS THE PUBLIC
8:29:37PM STREETS AND THEIR SIDEWALKS, KIND OF AN OVERLAY ON WHAT WAS
8:29:41PM A MUCH LARGER SCALE DISTRICT INDUSTRIAL AREA.
8:29:44PM ALSO, THE TRAILS ARE PART OF THE NEW PUBLIC FRAMEWORK I JUST
8:29:48PM DESCRIBED.
8:29:49PM THERE ALSO ARE SOME KEY PUBLIC SPACES.
8:29:51PM YOU SEE ON THAT BLOCK E-2 JUST TO THE WEST OF IT IS A NEW
8:29:55PM PARK, WHICH IS ON THE LAND THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY THE
8:29:59PM ROUNDABOUT FOR CARS.
8:30:01PM THAT BECOMES NEW PARK FOR PEOPLE.
8:30:03PM JUST SOUTH OF E-2 IS THE VACATED THIRD AVENUE WHICH BECOMES
8:30:07PM A PASEO, A PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION THAT LEADS INTO THAT PARK
8:30:11PM SPACE TO CHANNELSIDE AND JUST ADJACENT TO THEN IS THE
8:30:14PM PROPOSED NEW STREETCAR STOP.
8:30:17PM THAT STARTS TO BECOME THE FOCUS AND THE HEART OF THE
8:30:20PM REDEVELOPMENT OF THIS DISTRICT, THE HEART OF THE MIXED USE
8:30:23PM PROGRAM WHERE FOOD, BEVERAGE, AND RETAIL WILL OCCUR AROUND
8:30:27PM THAT LOCUS OF PUBLIC OPEN SPACE, PASEO, STREETCAR STOP AND
8:30:31PM THE REUSE OF THIS INDUSTRIAL BUILDING, WHICH WE'LL SHOW YOU
8:30:34PM IN MORE DETAIL.
8:30:35PM THERE ARE A COUPLE OF OTHER OPEN SPACES ALSO TO THE SOUTH
8:30:38PM ALONG THE RAILROAD RIGHT-OF-WAY AS WELL.
8:30:40PM SO THIS INDUSTRIAL BUILDING, WAREHOUSE BUILDING, IT OCCUPIES
8:30:46PM THE WHOLE BLOCK.
8:30:47PM IT'S RATHER LARGE.
8:30:48PM THE MOST INTERESTING FEATURE ARE THESE GREAT TRUSSES INSIDE
8:30:50PM OF IT.
8:30:51PM SO WE'RE PROPOSING TO ADAPTIVELY REUSE IT FOR RESTAURANTS
8:30:55PM WITH OUTDOOR DINING THAT WOULD EXTEND TO THE PASEO.
8:30:58PM CARVING SOME OF THE BUILDING FOR AN OUTDOOR COURTYARD, FOR
8:31:02PM OUTDOOR DINING AND ADDING A COLLECTION OF OTHER USES TO
8:31:05PM BRING IT TO LIFE AND TO MAKE THIS HEART.
8:31:08PM POTENTIALLY A BREWERY WITH A MARKET HALL WITH NUMBER OF
8:31:12PM VENDORS COWORKING OR CREATIVE OFFICE SPACE.
8:31:13PM PERHAPS A CULTURAL ARTS USE WITH SOME EVENTS THAT WOULD BE
8:31:17PM PROGRAMMED HERE.
8:31:18PM EVENT SPACE THAT PEOPLE COULD RENT OUT AS KIND OF A
8:31:21PM CENTERPIECE IN THE COMMUNITY.
8:31:22PM THIS IS A REAL PLACE OF DISCOVERY WHERE ALL THESE KIND OF
8:31:26PM ACTIVITIES AT THE HEART WOULD OCCUR WITHIN THIS BUILDING.
8:31:29PM YOU'LL SEE MORE ILLUSTRATIONS OF THAT AS WE GO FORWARD.
8:31:32PM SO HERE'S A RENDERING ON 14th STREET LOOKING SOUTH.
8:31:37PM SO THAT'S 3rd AVENUE TO THE RIGHT WHICH BECOMES THE PASEO.
8:31:41PM THAT'S JUST SOUTH OF THE REUSE INDUSTRIAL BUILDING ON THE
8:31:45PM RIGHT.
8:31:45PM THAT'S WHERE THE RESTAURANTS WOULD OPEN UP ON THAT PASEO,
8:31:48PM LIKE YOU SEE IN THE IMAGES ON THE RIGHT.
8:31:50PM THIS ALSO SHOWS THE SCALE OF BUILDINGS TRANSITIONING DOWN
8:31:53PM FROM TALLER BUILDINGS TOWARDS THE SELMON EXPRESSWAY TO LOWER
8:31:58PM BUILDINGS KIND OF IN THE HEART OF THINGS AND LOWER YET AS
8:32:01PM YOU GET NEAR HISTORIC YBOR CITY.
8:32:04PM YOU'LL SEE MORE OF THAT IN THE 3D MODELS AS WE GO FORWARD.
8:32:07PM THIS RENDERING IS LOOKING EAST.
8:32:08PM WE'RE JUST KIND OF OVER THE RAILROAD AND NICK NUCCIO PARKWAY
8:32:12PM LOOKING TOWARDS THAT REUSE INDUSTRIAL BUILDING IN THE
8:32:16PM BACKGROUND.
8:32:17PM THAT'S 4th AVENUE ON THE LEFT, THE PASEO AND 3rd AVENUE
8:32:21PM ON THE RIGHT.
8:32:22PM HERE IS THIS KEY PARK SPACE.
8:32:24PM IT'S ADJACENT TO THE STREETCAR STOP, ADJACENT TO THE MIXED
8:32:29PM USE IN THIS ADAPTIVELY REUSE BUILDING.
8:32:33PM WATER FEATURE.
8:32:34PM A FLEXIBLE LAWN WHERE EVENTS CAN BE PROGRAMMED ON THE
8:32:37PM WEEKENDS AND AT OTHER TIMES, KIND OF IN THE SPIRIT OF WHAT
8:32:41PM YOU SEE HERE ON THE RIGHT.
8:32:42PM SO THAT'S KIND OF A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE OVERALL PLAN.
8:32:45PM NOW NICK MANSPERGER WILL DIVE DEEP NEAR THE DESIGN CHARACTER
8:32:53PM OF THE BUILDING AND SOME OF THE BLOCKS.
8:33:00PM >> I'M NICK WITH DESIGN COLLECTIVE ARCHITECTS.
8:33:03PM WE'RE GOING TO SHOW A COUPLE OF IMAGES OF THE EXISTING
8:33:06PM CHARACTER AND THEN A FLY-THROUGH OF THE VISION FOR THE GAS
8:33:09PM WORX.
8:33:10PM SO THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PROCESS AND WITH THE PACKET AND
8:33:14PM EVERYTHING YOU'VE SEEN, WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN COGNIZANT OF THE
8:33:18PM HISTORIC NATURE OF YBOR CITY AND HOW THE RICH HISTORIC
8:33:21PM CHARACTER OF THAT ARCHITECTURE SHOULD BE INFLUENCED -- OR
8:33:24PM SHOULD BE INFLUENCING THE SCALE AND LEVEL OF DETAIL THAT
8:33:28PM WILL HAPPEN IN THE DEVELOPMENT.
8:33:29PM A COUPLE OF VERY SPECIFIC THINGS SUCH AS THE ORNATE
8:33:32PM BRICKWORK THAT WE SEE IN MANY OF THE BUILDINGS IN YBOR CITY
8:33:35PM AND ALONG 7th.
8:33:37PM WE SEE A LOT OF LARGER SCALE TALLER WINDOWS THAT REALLY
8:33:40PM START TO SET UP SOME OF THE CHARACTER OF THAT ARCHITECTURE.
8:33:43PM ALSO, THE BALCONIES THAT WE SEE ALONG 7th AVENUE AND IN
8:33:48PM THE DISTRICT ARE OFTEN CLUSTERED TOGETHER.
8:33:50PM SOMETIMES THEY ARE PRIVATE BALCONIES AND SOMETIMES THEY ARE
8:33:53PM PUBLIC OR COMMERCIAL BALCONIES THAT SET UP A GROUND LEVEL
8:33:56PM AND SECOND LEVEL PUBLIC ELEMENT TO THE EXPERIENCE IN YBOR.
8:34:00PM THESE ARE ALL ELEMENTS THAT ARE GOING TO BE UTILIZED AS
8:34:03PM TOOLS AND DEVICES IN THE ARCHITECTURE AND THE CHARACTER IN
8:34:06PM THIS DEVELOPMENT JUST THE SOUTH OF HISTORIC YBOR.
8:34:08PM AS WE LOOK AT THE SCALE OF THE BUILDINGS, THIS BECAME A VERY
8:34:13PM IMPORTANT ELEMENT, ESPECIALLY IN WORKING WITH THE BARRIO
8:34:15PM LATINO COMMISSION.
8:34:17PM THE LEFT IMAGE, YOU CAN SEE A VIEW LOOKING TOWARDS DOWNTOWN
8:34:21PM TAMPA.
8:34:22PM HISTORIC YBOR IS IN THE FOREGROUND OF THAT IMAGE.
8:34:24PM WE'RE LOOKING TO THE SOUTHWEST.
8:34:26PM YOU CAN SEE THAT THE SCALE AND THE TEXTURE OF EXISTING YBOR
8:34:29PM CITY IS MIRRORED IN THE INITIAL BUILDINGS OF OUR DEVELOPMENT
8:34:33PM AND THAT THE SCALE OF THOSE BUILDINGS THEN BEGIN TO RISE AS
8:34:36PM WE GO FURTHER SOUTH TOWARDS THE EXPRESSWAY.
8:34:38PM AND THAT'S VERY PURPOSEFUL AS WAS EXPRESSED EARLIER WITH
8:34:42PM THREE DIFFERENT SETS OF HEIGHT LIMITS BEING THE LOWEST IN
8:34:45PM THE HISTORIC DISTRICT AND GOING TOWARD HIGH-RISES THAT ARE
8:34:48PM AGAINST THE HIGHWAY.
8:34:49PM THE IMAGE ON THE RIGHT IS A SOUTHEAST-LOOKING PERSPECTIVE.
8:34:51PM SO IN THE FOREGROUND, THE TREE-LINED STREET IS NUCCIO COMING
8:34:55PM IN AND HITTING THE 7th AVENUE INTERSECTION.
8:34:57PM SO YOU CAN SEE AGAIN THE SCALE OF EXISTING YBOR.
8:35:01PM YOU CAN SEE THE FLORIDA BREWERY ABOUT CENTER ON THAT RIGHT
8:35:04PM IMAGE AND HOW THAT HAS A PROMINENCE AND HIERARCHY WITHIN THE
8:35:07PM COMMUNITY AND SOMETHING TO BE MAINTAINED EVEN WITH THIS NEW
8:35:10PM DEVELOPMENT.
8:35:10PM THE PROPOSED BUILDINGS IMMEDIATELY SOUTH OF THAT SITE ARE
8:35:13PM ACTUALLY LOWER THAN THAT BREWERY AND THEN BEGIN TO SCALE UP
8:35:17PM AGAIN AS IT GOES FURTHER SOUTH TOWARDS THE EXPRESSWAY.
8:35:20PM THE NEXT IMAGE IS NOT NECESSARILY TO BE STUDIED FOR
8:35:23PM ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER, BUT JUST TO BE SUGGESTIVE OF THE
8:35:27PM SCALE OF BUILDINGS THAT ARE BEING LOOKED AT FOR THE
8:35:29PM DEVELOPMENT.
8:35:30PM SO WITHIN THE HISTORIC DISTRICT LOOKING AT LOW DENSITY, YOU
8:35:34PM CAN SEE IN THIS RENDERING THREE TO FIVE STORIES ALLOWING
8:35:37PM THOSE SCALES TO CHANGE AS WE CROSS STREETS.
8:35:40PM AS WE GET TOWARDS THE MIDDLE IMAGE, WE'RE AT THE MIDDLE
8:35:44PM PORTION OF THE SITE FROM A NORTH-SOUTH PERSPECTIVE.
8:35:46PM SO WE'RE LOOKING AT BUILDINGS THAT ARE A LITTLE BIT TALLER.
8:35:48PM THEY CELEBRATE THEIR COMMERCIAL ASPECT, THE MIXED-USE ON THE
8:35:52PM GROUND FLOOR AND RESIDENTIAL, OFFICE OR HOTEL ABOVE.
8:35:55PM MANY OF THESE BUILDINGS HAVE ELEVATED COURTYARDS OR AT-GRADE
8:35:58PM COURTYARDS THAT MIGHT BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, AS YOU CAN SEE
8:36:01PM IN THAT CENTER IMAGE AS WELL IN TERMS OF BEING EXPRESSIVE
8:36:04PM OUT TO THE STREETSCAPE.
8:36:07PM THE SOUTHERNMOST PART OF THE SITE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
8:36:09PM HIGH-RISE DEVELOPMENT.
8:36:10PM AGAIN, THIS COULD BE OFFICE, HOTEL OR RESIDENTIAL, BUT
8:36:13PM ARCHITECTURE THAT IS ABLE TO OBTAIN VIEWS OVER TO THE
8:36:18PM BAYFRONT THAT'S TO THE SOUTH AND GET ABOVE THAT ELEVATED
8:36:23PM EXPRESSWAY.
8:36:23PM AS A CONCEPTUAL RENDERING AND AGAIN JUST CONCEPTUAL
8:36:30PM ARCHITECTURE SO SHOULDN'T BE FOCUSING ON DETAILS OF THE
8:36:32PM BUILDING.
8:36:33PM THIS IS A VIEW HOVERING OVER 7th AND LOOKING SOUTH.
8:36:36PM NUCCIO TOWARD THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT TO THE RIGHT.
8:36:39PM BUILDING IN THE FOREGROUND OF THE IMAGE ARE NORTHERNMOST
8:36:43PM IMAGINE THAT FALL UNDER THE PURVIEW OF THE BARRIO LATINO
8:36:44PM COMMISSION.
8:36:46PM WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THAT GROUP TO GET THE SCALE
8:36:48PM APPROPRIATE TO WORK WITH THE CONTEXT OF HISTORIC YBOR.
8:36:52PM AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THAT SCALE THAT BEGINS TO RISE UP TOWARD
8:36:55PM THE HIGH-RISES AT THE VERY SOUTH SIDE.
8:36:57PM WE HAVE A VIDEO WE'RE GOING TO SHARE NOW THAT IS ABOUT TWO
8:37:00PM AND A HALF MINUTES.
8:37:01PM IT GIVES YOU A SENSE OF THE CHARACTER AND THE PLACE-MAKING
8:37:04PM THAT WE'RE INTENDING FOR THE SITE.
8:37:06PM IT COMES WITH MUSIC.
8:37:12PM WE'LL TRY TO TURN IT DOWN SO WE CAN TALK OVER IT.
8:37:20PM CAN YOU SEE THE VIDEO?
8:37:40PM >> WE'RE GOING TO SKIP THE VIDEO.
8:40:04PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
8:40:09PM MY NAME IS GRAHAM TYRELL.
8:40:14PM APPRECIATE BEING HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE GAS WORX PROJECT.
8:40:17PM SORRY WE COULDN'T GET THE VIDEO TO WORK.
8:40:20PM ALAN AND NICK REALLY DESCRIBED THE OVERALL PHYSICAL
8:40:23PM MANIFESTATION OF GAS WORX.
8:40:25PM I WANT TO TALK MORE ABOUT THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS ASPECT OF
8:40:28PM THE PROJECT.
8:40:29PM IT REALLY FALLS INTO A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT BUCKETS -- THE
8:40:31PM PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS, AFFORDABLE HOUSING, HISTORIC
8:40:36PM PRESERVATION, AND THEN REALLY SOME OF THE ECONOMIC IMPACTS
8:40:37PM THAT WE SEE COMING FROM THE PROJECT AS WELL.
8:40:39PM STARTING WITH THE INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS, OBVIOUSLY, IN
8:40:45PM A PROJECT OF THIS SIZE, THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL INFRASTRUCTURE
8:40:49PM REQUIREMENTS NEEDED.
8:40:51PM A LOT OF THE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE IS SUBSTANDARD OR
8:40:54PM REALLY DOESN'T EXIST TODAY.
8:40:56PM AS ALAN SAID WE'RE ADDING NEW STREETS.
8:40:59PM A LOT OF WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS ADDING IN NEW
8:41:01PM STREETS, NEW UTILITIES, AND WE HAVE AS MUCH AS 1.8 MILES OF
8:41:05PM THOSE.
8:41:06PM IN TERMS OF THE OVERALL NEIGHBORHOOD, OBVIOUSLY, STORMWATER
8:41:08PM TREATMENT NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED AND WE'RE ADDRESSING THAT
8:41:11PM THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AS WELL.
8:41:12PM WE ALSO HAVE -- YOU CAN SEE THE IMAGE THERE ON THE RIGHT.
8:41:16PM WE HAVE A LOT OF OVERHEAD POWER LINES IN THE AREA.
8:41:18PM THERE IS A SUBSTATION THAT SITS RIGHT AT 14th AND 4th
8:41:22PM AVENUE.
8:41:23PM SO WE'RE TALKING TO TECO ABOUT PUTTING A LOT OF THAT
8:41:26PM OVERHEAD POWER LINE INFRASTRUCTURE UNDERGROUND AS WELL UP TO
8:41:30PM THE EXTENT OF ANOTHER --
8:41:35PM AND THEN A BIG PART OF WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AS WELL IS
8:41:38PM THE CSX CROSSINGS.
8:41:40PM OBVIOUSLY, WE HAVE A BARRIER, IF YOU WILL, WITH THE CSX RAIL
8:41:43PM LINE.
8:41:44PM WE DO HAVE ONE EXISTING CROSSING TODAY AT THE ROUNDABOUT.
8:41:47PM WE'D LIKE TO IMPROVE THAT BY RESTORING THE STREET GRID.
8:41:51PM ALSO LOOKING AT A SECOND CROSSING POINT.
8:41:53PM THEN THERE ARE THE MOBILITY INVESTMENTS.
8:41:56PM NOT JUST ABOUT NEW STREETS.
8:41:58PM WANT STREETS TO BE WALKABLE, BIKE FRIENDLY AND PEOPLE TO
8:42:01PM REALLY GET OUT OF THEIR CARS AND START USING TRANSIT AS
8:42:04PM WELL.
8:42:04PM THAT'S REALLY A BIG MOTIVATION OF OUR ENTIRE PROJECT DESIGN.
8:42:07PM WE HAVE 3.6 MILES OF NEW SIDEWALKS IN THIS PROJECT.
8:42:10PM IT'S A REALLY SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF NEW SIDEWALKS.
8:42:14PM SOME OF THE SIDEWALKS EXIST TODAY BUT THEY ARE VERY NARROW.
8:42:16PM THEY HAVE UTILITY POLES IN THE WAY.
8:42:18PM SOME OF THEM ARE CRUMBLING.
8:42:20PM WE'RE GOING TO BE REPAIRING ALL OF THOSE.
8:42:22PM WE HAVE ABOUT 1.2 MILES OF NEW MULTIUSE TRAILS.
8:42:26PM ALAN MENTIONED THE TRAILS, THE WAY THEY CONNECT THE SELMON
8:42:30PM EXPRESSWAY TRAIL WITH THE NUCCIO PARKWAY TRAIL.
8:42:33PM REALLY, BEYOND ADDING THOSE ABILITIES FOR PEOPLE TO GET
8:42:39PM PLACE TO PLACE ON FOOT OR BIKE, WE WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE
8:42:42PM LAST MILE, THOSE LITTLE MOBILITY HUBS, THE BIKE RACKS, THE
8:42:46PM BIKE STATIONS, SCOOTER STATIONS, ALL THOSE THINGS THAT
8:42:50PM REALLY HELP PEOPLE THINK, YOU KNOW WHAT?
8:42:52PM I CAN GET TO MY PLACE OF WORK.
8:42:53PM I CAN GET TO WHERE I'M GOING THIS EVENING FOR DINNER WITHOUT
8:42:56PM GETTING IN A CAR.
8:42:58PM WE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THE NEW STREETCAR STOP.
8:43:00PM WE THINK THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT.
8:43:02PM OBVIOUSLY, CHANNEL DISTRICT HAS A STREETCAR STOP.
8:43:04PM YBOR STREETCAR STOP.
8:43:06PM REALLY NOTHING IN BETWEEN.
8:43:07PM THERE IS A LARGE GAP THERE AND WE THINK WITH THE SIZE
8:43:10PM DEVELOPMENT WE'RE DOING IT'S REALLY APPROPRIATE TO HAVE A
8:43:13PM NEW TRANSIT STOP THERE.
8:43:15PM GET PEOPLE THINKING ABOUT MOVING DOWNTOWN ALL THE WAY UP TO
8:43:18PM EVENTUALLY TAMPA HEIGHTS THROUGH THE STREETCAR.
8:43:21PM AND THEN WE HAVE A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF MOBILITY AND
8:43:24PM MITIGATION FEES THAT COME ALONG WITH THIS PROJECT AS WELL.
8:43:27PM $5 MILLION.
8:43:28PM PROJECT THIS SIZE WILL HAVE QUITE CONSIDERABLE ENVIRONMENTAL
8:43:36PM ENHANCEMENTS.
8:43:36PM THE HISTORY OF THE SITE IS VERY INDUSTRIAL IN NATURE.
8:43:40PM A LOT OF CONTAMINATION THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE AREA.
8:43:43PM MOST OF THE AREA WILL ULTIMATELY, IF NOT ALL OF IT, END UP
8:43:46PM IN THE BROWNFIELDS PROGRAM.
8:43:48PM SOME ALREADY IS.
8:43:49PM WE WILL BE REMEDIATING A LOT OF SOILS AND REPLACING BAD
8:43:53PM CONTAMINATION WITH NEW CONSTRUCTION.
8:43:55PM WHEN WE'RE DONE, WE'LL HAVE TWO ACRES OF PUBLIC SPACE, OPEN
8:43:59PM PUBLIC SPACE.
8:44:00PM THAT DOESN'T EXIST REALLY TODAY.
8:44:02PM WHAT WE HAVE TODAY IS ACTUALLY 12 ACRES OF SURFACE PARKING
8:44:05PM AND STORAGE YARDS.
8:44:06PM IT'S REALLY UNDERUTILIZED AREA AND REALLY KIND OF BAD
8:44:10PM ENVIRONMENTAL AREA WHEN YOU START TO THINK ABOUT IT.
8:44:12PM AS NICK WAS SAYING, THE BUILDINGS THEMSELVES ARE NOT
8:44:15PM DESIGNED YET.
8:44:16PM THIS IS A PDA.
8:44:17PM BUT ULTIMATELY AS WE GO THROUGH DESIGNING BUILDINGS AND
8:44:19PM START BRINGING THOSE IN, THEY WILL HAVE LEAD, GREEN BUILDING
8:44:24PM STANDARDS.
8:44:25PM WE'LL BE LOOKING AT THINGS AS WELL AS SOME CREATIVE WAYS TO
8:44:29PM IMPROVE THE LIVEABILITY OF BUILDINGS NOT JUST FROM
8:44:32PM ENVIRONMENTAL POINT OF VIEW BUT ALSO FROM A HEALTH POINT OF
8:44:36PM VIEW.
8:44:37PM HISTORIC PRESERVATION OBVIOUSLY VERY IMPORTANT SUBJECT WHEN
8:44:39PM YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT AN AREA THAT OVERLAPS WITH YBOR CITY.
8:44:43PM AS WE ALREADY REFERENCED, THE ADAPTIVE REUSE OF THE
8:44:46PM WAREHOUSE BUILDING.
8:44:47PM 1950 BUILDING, NOT A CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE BUT WE THINK
8:44:49PM BASED ON THE PICTURES YOU'VE SEEN TONIGHT IT'S GOT SOME
8:44:52PM REALLY COOL ASPECTS TO IT, PARTICULARLY ON THE INSIDE OF THE
8:44:56PM BUILDING.
8:44:56PM COULD BE A REALLY IMPORTANT CENTER OF THE COMMUNITY.
8:44:59PM THERE IS ONE EXISTING CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE AN OLD HOUSE ON
8:45:03PM THE PROPERTY.
8:45:03PM THAT IS THE BLUE HOUSE YOU SEE AT THE CORNER OF 3rd AVENUE
8:45:06PM AND 14th.
8:45:07PM AND WE HAVE COMMITTED TO RELOCATING THAT STRUCTURE ELSEWHERE
8:45:11PM WITHIN THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.
8:45:13PM AND THEN AS WE MENTIONED ALREADY, WE DO HAVE THE APPROVAL OF
8:45:16PM THE BARRIO LATINO AND THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD, WE
8:45:20PM REALLY WANT TO BRING SOME OF THAT CHARACTER AND HISTORY OF
8:45:22PM THE AREA INTO THINGS LIKE SIGNAGE, INTO THINGS LIKE MARKERS.
8:45:26PM SO WE REALLY WANT TO REFLECT THAT IN THE PUBLIC SPACES.
8:45:31PM OBVIOUSLY, AFFORDABLE HOUSING IS A BIG SUBJECT RIGHT NOW.
8:45:34PM WE RECOGNIZE THAT.
8:45:35PM SO THIS WILL BE THE LARGEST PRIVATE COMMITMENT OF AFFORDABLE
8:45:37PM HOUSING THAT TAMPA HAS SEEN TO DATE.
8:45:40PM 325 UNITS OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
8:45:42PM THEY WILL BE 80% AND 120% MEDIAN INCOME UNITS.
8:45:48PM MIXED WITH THE MARKET RATE.
8:45:49PM AND THAT REPRESENTS A $62 MILLION VALUE COMMITMENT.
8:45:53PM SO THAT IS A SUBSTANTIAL COMMITMENT FROM THE PROJECT.
8:45:57PM 50% OF THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS WILL BE DELIVERED BEFORE
8:46:00PM WE EVEN START USING THE BONUS DENSITY.
8:46:04PM THIS IS A BONUS DENSITY RELATED AFFORDABLE COMMITMENT.
8:46:09PM THAT COMMITMENT WE HAVE SORT OF SAID WE WANT TO WAIT UNTIL
8:46:12PM WE USE THE BONUS DENSITY.
8:46:14PM WE'LL USE THAT BEFORE WE EVEN REACH THE BONUS DENSITY.
8:46:17PM AND THEN ONE THING TO REALIZE IS THAT PEOPLE MAY ASK WHY
8:46:21PM DON'T YOU DO BONUS DENSITY ON THE ENTIRE PROJECT.
8:46:24PM YOU CAN DO MORE UNITS, EVERYTHING ELSE AND MORE AFFORDABLE.
8:46:28PM THE REALITY IS ONLY A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF THE PROPERTY IS
8:46:31PM ELIGIBLE FOR BONUS.
8:46:33PM HISTORIC DISTRICT, HEIGHT CONSTRAINTS.
8:46:35PM NOT EVERY PARCEL AND NOT EVERY PORTION OF THE PROPERTY IS
8:46:38PM ELIGIBLE FOR A BONUS DENSITY.
8:46:41PM WE ALREADY TALKED A LITTLE BIT TONIGHT ABOUT CRAs.
8:46:47PM WE ARE ACTUALLY IN FOUR DIFFERENT CRAs, WHICH MAKES THIS A
8:46:51PM VERY INTERESTING PROJECT IN SOME RESPECTS.
8:46:53PM BUT I THINK IT'S ALSO IN SOME RESPECTS GOOD NEWS, TOO.
8:46:56PM IT MEANS WE ARE GOING TO BE CREATING NEW DEVELOPMENT IN FOUR
8:46:59PM DIFFERENT CRAs THAT CAN BENEFIT FROM THAT TAX INFLUX.
8:47:04PM WE'RE ESTIMATE BEING $63 MILLION OF INCREMENTAL TAXES THAT
8:47:08PM ARE GOING TO BE GENERATED.
8:47:09PM AND THAT'S JUST THROUGH THE EXPIRATION DATES OF THE CRAs
8:47:12PM TODAY.
8:47:12PM SO TO THE EXTENT THOSE CRAs GET RENEWED AND THEN GO
8:47:17PM FURTHER INTO THE FUTURE, OUR BUILDINGS WILL OBVIOUSLY
8:47:19PM GENERATE A LOT MORE TAX BASE BECAUSE AT THAT POINT THEY WILL
8:47:22PM BE COMPLETED, BUILT OUT DEVELOPMENT.
8:47:27PM ONE THING ALSO THAT IS WORTH MENTIONING HERE IS THE NUMBER
8:47:30PM OF JOBS THAT OUR PROJECT IS GOING TO CREATE.
8:47:32PM THIS IS NOT AN OLD RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.
8:47:33PM IT WILL HAVE A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF OFFICE SPACE.
8:47:36PM SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF RETAIL SPACE.
8:47:38PM WE'RE PROJECTING BETWEEN 2500 AND 3,000 NEW JOBS.
8:47:41PM AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE THINK THAT REALLY MAKES FOR
8:47:44PM INTERESTING, OVERALL WHEN YOU START THINKING BIGGER PICTURE
8:47:48PM FOR TAMPA, THE GOOD NEWS IS TAMPA IS -- HAS REALLY EMERGED
8:47:53PM RECENTLY AS MAJOR INNOVATION MARKET.
8:47:55PM 20% INCREASE IN S.T.E.M. JOBS IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS.
8:47:57PM WE'RE GETTING CALLS ALREADY.
8:47:59PM WHEN ARE YOU GUYS GOING TO HAVE OFFICE SPACE READY IN GAS
8:48:02PM WORX?
8:48:03PM WE WANT TO COME TO GAS WORX.
8:48:05PM OFFICE TENANTS, BROKERS, CORPORATIONS ARE ALL STARTING TO
8:48:09PM REALIZE THEY WANT TO BE IN A 20-MINUTE COMMUNITY.
8:48:12PM THEY WANT TO BE IN THOSE PLACES WHERE THEIR EMPLOYEES CAN
8:48:14PM WALK OUT THE DOOR, GO TO RESTAURANTS, GO TO SHOPS, GO TO
8:48:17PM THEIR APARTMENT AND THAT'S REALLY, I THINK, HOW YOU SORT OF
8:48:20PM BUILD THE SUCCESSFUL COMMUNITIES.
8:48:22PM YOU CREATE THAT MIXED-USE ENVIRONMENT AND IT REALLY STARTS
8:48:25PM TO DRAW THE JOBS THAT THEN SUPPORT THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO
8:48:28PM LIVE IN THE AREA.
8:48:29PM WE THINK GAS WORX WILL DO THAT REALLY WELL AND WE'RE ALREADY
8:48:32PM SEEING SIGNS OF IT FROM PEOPLE APPROACHING US.
8:48:36PM THE PDA REALLY ALLOWS US THE FLEXIBILITY AS WELL TO INCREASE
8:48:40PM THE AMOUNT OF OFFICE.
8:48:41PM TO THE EXTENT THAT THAT OFFICE MARKET REALLY BECOMES STRONG
8:48:44PM IN THE AREA, WE CAN START TO INCREASE AND REDUCE THE AMOUNT
8:48:47PM OF RESIDENTIAL.
8:48:48PM I JUST THREW IN A FEW COMMENTS HERE, FEW QUOTES FROM RECENT
8:48:52PM REPORTS THAT REALLY REINFORCES THAT POINT.
8:48:56PM OFFICE TENANTS TODAY ARE REALLY LOOKING FOR THOSE
8:48:58PM AMENITY-RICH NEIGHBORHOODS.
8:48:59PM WHAT WE REALLY WANT TO FOCUS BRINGING IN, JOBS AND RETAIL
8:49:06PM AND ALL THESE EXCITING THINGS, WE ALSO WANT TO REALLY MAKE
8:49:09PM SURE WE HONOR THE TRADITION OF YBOR CITY IN TERMS OF ITS
8:49:13PM SORT OF ENTREPRENEURIALISM, THE LOCAL BUSINESSES, THE
8:49:17PM ARTISTS AND MAKERS THAT ALREADY EXIST IN THE AREA.
8:49:20PM WE DEFINITELY MAKE SURE WE HAVE SMALL SPACES INCLUDED IN OUR
8:49:23PM RETAIL, FOR EXAMPLE.
8:49:24PM FLEXIBLE SPACES WHERE START-UP COMPANIES CAN GO, WHERE
8:49:27PM ARTISTS CAN GO AND REALLY ALLOW THOSE BUSINESSES TO GROW AND
8:49:31PM SORT OF REALLY THAT SORT OF BENEFICIAL QUESTION WHEN YOU
8:49:34PM THINK ABOUT IT, BUSINESS DO WELL, START-UP, GROW, WE CAN
8:49:38PM LEASE THEM A LARGER SPACE.
8:49:39PM WE ALSO WANT TO REALLY SORT OF EMBRACE THE PUBLIC ART SCENE
8:49:45PM THAT'S ALREADY IN YBOR.
8:49:47PM DARRYL SHAW WILL TALK NEXT.
8:49:49PM HE'S BEEN HEAVILY INVOLVED IN MANY ART RELATED PROJECTS
8:49:52PM THROUGHOUT YBOR.
8:49:53PM THE KRESS BUILDING.
8:49:55PM WE WANT TO COORDINATE WITH FOLKS WHO ARE SORT OF OPERATING
8:49:58PM IN THOSE BUILDINGS, REALLY SORT OF USE THAT RESOURCE AND
8:50:01PM BRING IT INTO GAS WORX.
8:50:03PM ONE OF THE SIMPLE WAYS YOU CAN THINK ABOUT THAT IS THROUGH
8:50:06PM PUBLIC ART.
8:50:07PM WE THINK GREAT OPPORTUNITIES.
8:50:08PM THIS PROJECT WILL LAST A LONG TIME AND A LOT OF VACANT
8:50:11PM SITES.
8:50:11PM WE'LL HAVE A NEED FOR SCREENING, SIGNAGE, SUBSTATION SITE
8:50:15PM THAT'S RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE WAREHOUSE.
8:50:17PM LOTS OF WAYS WE CAN USE THE ARTIST COMMUNITY.
8:50:20PM SO WITH THAT, I'D LIKE TO HAND IT OVER TO DARRYL.
8:50:26PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I SAW THAT THE CSX, YOU HAVE TWO
8:50:30PM CROSSINGS WITH CSX?
8:50:31PM >> THAT'S RIGHT.
8:50:35PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: HAVE YOU GOT ANY AGREEMENTS WITH THEM OR
8:50:37PM ANYTHING?
8:50:38PM >> WE ARE WORKING WITH THEM, BUT WE HAVE GOOD TRACTION.
8:50:43PM WE'VE BEEN TALKING TO CSX NOW FOR PROBABLY ABOUT 18 MONTHS
8:50:47PM AND WE ARE ACTIVELY WORKING WITH THEM ON MAKING THOSE
8:50:49PM CROSSINGS HAPPEN.
8:50:53PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
8:50:58PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
8:50:59PM DARRYL SHAW WITH GAS WORX.
8:51:04PM 1988 I GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE AND MOVED DOWN TO YBOR CITY.
8:51:09PM I LIVED ABOVE WHAT WAS THE GRECO HARDWARE STORE.
8:51:13PM IT WAS ON THE CORNER OF 8th AVENUE AND 15th STREET.
8:51:17PM AT THE TIME IT WAS WEST OF THE MOON STUDIO.
8:51:20PM TODAY IT IS A BREWERY.
8:51:23PM A FRIEND OF MINE AND MYSELF PURCHASED A SMALL BUILDING ON
8:51:25PM 7th AVENUE WHICH WE WERE GOING TO RENOVATE INTO OFFICE
8:51:29PM SPACE.
8:51:30PM AND PRIOR TO BEGINNING RENOVATION, IT WAS GUAVAWEEN, AND I
8:51:34PM INVITED MY FAMILY TO COME AND WATCH THE PARADE.
8:51:37PM WE STOOD ON THE BALCONY AND WATCHED THE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
8:51:40PM BELOW AND THE PARADE GO BY.
8:51:42PM IT ENDED UNEVENTFULLY.
8:51:45PM WE WENT HOME.
8:51:46PM TWO WEEKS LATER AT PRECISELY TWO WEEKS LATER, 5 A.M. ON A
8:51:50PM SUNDAY MORNING I GET A CALL FROM THE POLICE THAT SAID DO YOU
8:51:53PM OWN THIS BUILDING ON 7th AVENUE?
8:51:55PM I SAID YES.
8:51:56PM THEY SAID YOU BETTER GET DOWN HERE QUICKLY BECAUSE IT'S
8:51:59PM LIKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET.
8:52:00PM THE BALCONY THAT ALL 12 OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS AND I WERE ON
8:52:04PM COLLAPSED BY ITSELF IN THE WEE HOURS OF THE SUNDAY MORNING.
8:52:08PM WE DID NOT KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THERE WAS ANYBODY UNDERNEATH.
8:52:12PM WE SPENT THE DAY CLEARING THE RUBBLE.
8:52:14PM THANK GOD NOBODY WAS BELOW.
8:52:16PM ALTHOUGH WE HAD A COMPLETE ECONOMIC LOSS, I LOOK BACK AND AM
8:52:21PM SO THANKFUL FOR HOW LUCKY WE WERE TO ESCAPE THE TRAGIC
8:52:27PM EVENT.
8:52:28PM IT ENDED THE REAL ESTATE CAREER.
8:52:30PM I WENT BACK TO SCHOOL AND IT WASN'T UNTIL A HANDFUL OF YEARS
8:52:34PM AGO THAT I REKINDLED MY INTEREST IN YBOR CITY.
8:52:39PM I MET SOME PROPERTY OWNERS IN YBOR.
8:52:43PM THE BUCHMAN FAMILY, THE CAPITANO FAMILY, THE GUYARDO FAMILY.
8:52:49PM I BECAME FRIENDS WITH THEM.
8:52:51PM WE BECAME PARTNERS AND THEY BECAME MENTORS, AND OVER THE
8:52:56PM LAST SEVERAL YEARS, WE HAVE BEEN THINKING THROUGH HOW TO
8:53:03PM HELP REVITALIZE YBOR AND BRING BACK YBOR TO BECOME AGAIN ONE
8:53:11PM OF AMERICA'S GREAT NEIGHBORHOODS.
8:53:12PM AND THERE'S A LOT THAT GOES INTO THAT THOUGHT PROCESS.
8:53:16PM IT'S A HOLISTIC VIEW.
8:53:17PM IT'S NOT A FOCUS ON AN INDIVIDUAL PROPERTY.
8:53:20PM IT BEGINS WITH BRINGING PEOPLE, LOTS OF PEOPLE TO LIVE IN
8:53:23PM THE DISTRICT.
8:53:24PM THAT IS A KEY ELEMENT.
8:53:27PM IT IS LOOKING AT GREENSPACE AND PUBLIC PARKS.
8:53:30PM IT LOOKS AT LANDSCAPING PLANS.
8:53:33PM IT NEEDS TO LOOK AT BIKE PATHS AND WALKABILITY.
8:53:37PM IT'S RECONNECTING THE GRID.
8:53:40PM IT IS LOOKING AT DIVERSITY FROM AN ECONOMIC BUSINESS
8:53:46PM INTEREST, DIVERSITY OF ECONOMIC BASE, DIVERSITY OF
8:53:49PM POPULATION AND A DIVERSITY OF HOUSING.
8:53:53PM AND SO WE HAVE VERY SIGNIFICANT PLAN AND VISION FOR YBOR
8:53:59PM THAT WILL UNFOLD OVER A NUMBER OF YEARS, BY FAR THE MOST
8:54:03PM SIGNIFICANT, BUT NOT THE ONLY COMPONENT OF IT IS THE GAS
8:54:06PM WORX PLAN.
8:54:07PM SO I'VE HAD THE HONOR TO PARTNER WITH KETTLER.
8:54:11PM THEY HAVE BEEN AMAZING PARTNERS THUS FAR AND WE ARE VERY,
8:54:15PM VERY EXCITED ABOUT WHAT GAS WORX WILL DO FOR YBOR, FOR THE
8:54:20PM PEOPLE OF YBOR, FOR THE CITY OF TAMPA AND FOR THE TAMPA BAY
8:54:23PM AREA.
8:54:24PM WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND CONSIDERATION THIS EVENING.
8:54:33PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: MR. HUDSON.
8:54:37PM >> THAT CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION.
8:54:39PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ALL RIGHT.
8:54:40PM AT THIS TIME, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE WILL TAKE PUBLIC
8:54:44PM COMMENT.
8:54:45PM I ASK THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEAK TO PLEASE FORM A LINE,
8:54:50PM MY LEFT, YOUR RIGHT.
8:54:52PM WHEN MR. HUDSON REQUESTS -- LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE PAY
8:54:57PM ATTENTION TO ME.
8:54:58PM WHEN MR. HUDSON REQUESTED THAT THESE ITEMS BE MOVED BEFORE
8:55:06PM OTHERS ON THE AGENDA, IT WAS BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT THERE WERE
8:55:12PM GOING TO BE LOTS OF PUBLIC COMMENT.
8:55:16PM OUT OF RESPECT TO THE PETITIONERS FOR ITEMS NUMBER 5, 9, AND
8:55:22PM 10, CAN WE KEEP OUR COMMENTS TO A MINIMUM AND PLEASE NOT
8:55:29PM REPEAT WHAT SOMEONE HAS SAID BEFORE YOU.
8:55:32PM THANK YOU.
8:55:33PM MR. GONZMART, ARE YOU FIRST?
8:55:39PM >> RICHARD GONZMART.
8:55:41PM IT'S AN HONOR TO BE HERE TODAY.
8:55:42PM WE'RE WITNESSING HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF WHEN ONCE UPON A
8:55:48PM TIME IN 1900 THERE WERE 3,000 RESIDENCES.
8:55:52PM TENS OF THOUSANDS PEOPLE WOULD CALL YBOR CITY HOME WHERE
8:55:55PM THEY WORKED, THEY SHOPPED, THEY DINED AND THEY PLAYED.
8:55:59PM THEY WOULD WALK ALONG THE STREETS IN A TIME WHERE THEY USE
8:56:03PM STREETCARS AND BICYCLES.
8:56:04PM THERE WEREN'T CARS.
8:56:05PM SADLY, MY FAMILY THE COLUMBIA RESTAURANT IS THE LAST OF
8:56:09PM THOSE FROM THE GOLDEN ERA THAT WAS STARTED ACTUALLY IN 1903,
8:56:13PM DECEMBER 17.
8:56:14PM THERE HAVE BEEN TOUGH TIMES WHEN URBAN RENEWAL CAME IN THE
8:56:17PM '50s AND THEY SENT THESE FAMILIES THAT EMIGRATED HERE AND
8:56:23PM THEIR CHILDREN WENT ON TO BE SUCCESSFUL TO THE SUBURBS, THE
8:56:27PM HOMES WERE REMOVED.
8:56:29PM THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU TO VOTE.
8:56:32PM MY FATHER ALWAYS SAID IT WAS GOING TO TAKE A PERSON FROM OUT
8:56:35PM OF TOWN, A PERSON WITH VISION, A PASSION FOR YBOR CITY.
8:56:41PM AND I WISH HE HAD MET DARRYL SHAW WHO HAS BEEN ABLE TO
8:56:46PM GATHER THESE PROPERTIES TOGETHER.
8:56:47PM MY FAMILY HAS STRUGGLED BUT WE'RE INVESTING 10 TO 20 MILLION
8:56:51PM DOLLARS OVER THE NEXT TEN YEARS.
8:56:53PM WE'LL PUT A SICILIAN MARKET THERE.
8:56:56PM IT'S UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
8:56:57PM WE'LL HAVE -- BREAKING BREAD SO PEOPLE CAN WALK TO PICK UP
8:57:04PM BREAD.
8:57:05PM AND COFFEE ROASTING THROUGH THE AIR AND FEEL THAT HISTORY.
8:57:10PM I CREATED SOMETHING CALLED CAFE CON LECHE AT THE AIRPORT
8:57:15PM NAMED THE BEST NEW COFFEE CONCEPT IN THE COUNTRY, NUMBER
8:57:19PM FIVE IN THE WORLD.
8:57:20PM IT WAS DEVELOPED FOR YBOR CITY.
8:57:21PM SO YOU CAN GO BACK THERE.
8:57:25PM IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY AS A FAMILY OF THE FOURTH GENERATION
8:57:27PM TO TAKE CARE FROM 20th TO 22nd STREET.
8:57:31PM I WISH MY FATHER WAS HERE.
8:57:34PM I KNOW HE IS.
8:57:36PM AND I'M GRATEFUL TO DARRYL SHAW AND THE TEAM HE'S PUT
8:57:41PM TOGETHER.
8:57:42PM I JUST CAN'T WAIT.
8:57:43PM I'M GOING TO STAY HERE.
8:57:45PM MY CHILDREN WILL BE HERE.
8:57:46PM WE'LL BE PROVIDING JOBS, NORTH YBOR CITY WILL EXIST.
8:57:51PM AFFORDABLE HOUSING IS IMPORTANT.
8:57:53PM LIKE WE DID, THE SICILIANS, SPANISH, CUBANS, AFRICAN
8:57:57PM AMERICANS, WE WORK SIDE BY SIDE.
8:57:59PM AND THAT'S WHAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE.
8:58:04PM YBOR CITY WILL REUNITE THE CITIZENS OF THIS GREAT COMMUNITY
8:58:07PM ON BEHALF OF OUR FAMILY AND EVERYBODY, GOD BLESS EACH ONE OF
8:58:10PM YOU.
8:58:11PM THANK YOU.
8:58:11PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
8:58:18PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MEMBERS.
8:58:19PM I'M JANET SCHERBERGER, PRESIDENT OF WALK, BIKE TAMPA.
8:58:24PM SPEAKING IN SUPPORT OF THE PROJECT ON BEHALF OF THE ENTIRE
8:58:27PM WALK BIKE BOARD.
8:58:28PM WE MET WITH THE DEVELOPERS AND WE WERE STRUCK BY THEIR
8:58:30PM GENUINE COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND
8:58:32PM COLLABORATION.
8:58:33PM WE WERE ALSO REALLY STRUCK BY THE PROJECT ITSELF.
8:58:36PM IN FACT, A FEW OF US WERE LITERALLY BROUGHT TO TEARS BY WHAT
8:58:40PM WE SAW.
8:58:41PM WHAT CAN I SAY?
8:58:42PM WE ARE COMPLETE TRANSPORTATION AND URBAN PLANNING NERDS.
8:58:46PM IN MANY ASPECTS, THE VISION FOR GAS WORX DOVETAILS WITH OUR
8:58:50PM VISION FOR A MORE WALKABLE, BIKEABLE CITY.
8:58:53PM PRIORITIZES PEOPLE OVER PARKING AND THEREFORE CARS.
8:58:55PM THAT'S A PHILOSOPHY WE'D LIKE TO SEE EMBRACED CITYWIDE.
8:58:59PM NOTEWORTHY ELEMENTS.
8:59:01PM ABUNDANCE OF SHADE TREES RATHER THAN PALMS WHICH MAKES A
8:59:03PM REALLY BIG DIFFERENCE FOR PEOPLE WHEN WALKING OUT IN THE
8:59:06PM FLORIDA SUN.
8:59:07PM THE PLANS TO NARROW VEHICLE LANES ON EXISTING STREETS WHICH
8:59:11PM SLOWS DOWN CARS AND MAKES THE STREET SAFER FOR PEOPLE ON
8:59:14PM BIKES AND PEOPLE WHO ARE WALKING.
8:59:16PM THE TEN FOOT WIDE MULTIUSE TRAILS THAT MAKE IT EASY FOR
8:59:20PM PEOPLE TO WALK SIDE BY SIDE OR PASS EACH OTHER EASILY.
8:59:23PM THERE IS ALSO THE STREETCAR STOP AND THE PARKS AND THE
8:59:25PM PEDESTRIAN PROMENADE.
8:59:26PM BASED ON THESE PLANS, IT LOOKS LIKE THIS DISTRICT WILL BE A
8:59:30PM SAFE AND COMFORTABLE FOR PEOPLE WALKING AND ON BIKES.
8:59:37PM THIS IS A PROJECT THAT REALLY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE ONE OF
8:59:39PM TAMPA'S BEST IN TERMS OF PEOPLE-CENTRIC PLANNING.
8:59:42PM WE HOPE THIS DISTRICT DOES NOT BECOME AN ISLAND AND THAT THE
8:59:45PM CITY WILL CONTINUE TO CREATE CONNECTIONS FRIENDLY TO PEOPLE
8:59:48PM WHO CHOOSE NOT TO DRIVE CARS BETWEEN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS AND
8:59:51PM ECONOMIC CENTERS AND WOULD RATHER GO BY TRANSIT ON FOOT OR
8:59:55PM BY BIKE BETWEEN USF, YBOR, GAS WORX, WATER STREET, DOWNTOWN,
9:00:00PM MIDTOWN, WESTSHORE, AND THE AIRPORT.
9:00:02PM WALK BIKE TAMPA LOOKS FORWARD TO SEEING THIS PROJECT COME
9:00:06PM OUT OF THE GROUND AND WE URGE YOU TO VOTE IN SUPPORT OF IT.
9:00:10PM THANK YOU.
9:00:11PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:00:15PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
9:00:16PM NATHAN HAGEN.
9:00:17PM I SUPPORT THIS PROJECT BECAUSE I THINK THIS REPRESENTS AN
9:00:22PM IMPORTANT EXAMPLE OF THE POWER OF CITY COUNCIL ON LAND USE
9:00:26PM AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
9:00:28PM BEACH PARK, A RANDOMLY SELECTED NEIGHBORHOOD THAT I WANTED
9:00:32PM TO BRING UP AS A COMPARISON IS 500 ACRES.
9:00:35PM HAS 3,000 PEOPLE AND THE MEDIAN COST OF A HOME FOR SALE
9:00:40PM THERE IN JUNE WAS ALMOST TWO AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS.
9:00:43PM THIS IS ONE-TENTH OF THE SIZE, 50 ACRES OR LESS.
9:00:48PM I THINK I'VE SEEN NUMBERS AROUND 5,000 PEOPLE OR MORE MIGHT
9:00:52PM BE HOUSED HERE.
9:00:54PM AND THERE'S AT LEAST 300 AFFORDABLE UNITS IN IT.
9:00:58PM SO I JUST THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO EMPHASIZE THE POWER OF THE
9:01:01PM AFFORDABLE HOUSING BONUS DENSITY, CONSIDER HOW MANY UNITS
9:01:05PM YOU'RE AWARE OF THAT HAVE ACTUALLY USED THE PROGRAM, HOW
9:01:08PM MANY ARE USED HERE, AND HOW THIS REPRESENTS YOUR ABILITY TO
9:01:11PM USE LAND USE TO EFFECT CHANGE IN OUR CITY THAT WILL ACTUALLY
9:01:15PM PROVIDE HOUSING FOR PEOPLE AND MAKE WALKABLE COMMUNITIES AND
9:01:18PM DO ALL THE THINGS THAT WE WANT IN OUR CITY TODAY.
9:01:21PM THANK YOU.
9:01:21PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:01:25PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL AND CHAIR.
9:01:27PM I HAVE NOT BEEN SWORN IN.
9:01:29PM I WAS NOT HERE.
9:01:34PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: IF THERE IS ANYBODY ELSE IN THIS ROOM, MR.
9:01:36PM BELL, HAVE YOU BEEN SWORN IN?
9:01:38PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
9:01:39PM IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE IN THIS ROOM THAT HASN'T BEEN SWORN
9:01:42PM IN?
9:01:45PM [OATH ADMINISTERED]
9:01:47PM >> I DO.
9:01:49PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:01:50PM >> COUNCIL, I'M LEROY MOORE.
9:01:52PM 5301 WEST CYPRESS STREET.
9:01:55PM AS YOU KNOW, I AM SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT AT TAMPA HOUSING
9:01:57PM AUTHORITY.
9:01:59PM I'M ALSO CHAIR OF ULI TAMPA BAY.
9:02:02PM I'M ACTUALLY HERE TODAY, THIS EVENING TO SPEAK TO YOU NOT IN
9:02:06PM EITHER OF THOSE ROLES BUT AS A PUBLIC DEVELOPER AND AS A
9:02:10PM PRACTITIONER OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND COMMUNITY
9:02:13PM BUILDING.
9:02:14PM AND IN MY CAPACITY IN BOTH OF THOSE ROLES, IT'S RARE THAT WE
9:02:20PM GET A CHANCE TO ACTUALLY SEE A PROJECT LIKE THIS THAT
9:02:24PM EMPLOYS ALL OF THE TENETS OF BEST PRACTICES, FROM
9:02:29PM SUSTAINABILITY, TO WALKABILITY, CONNECTABILITY, AND MY MOST
9:02:33PM IMPORTANT ONE, DIVERSE IN BOTH USES AS WELL AS INCOMES.
9:02:39PM SO IT'S VERY PLEASING TO SEE A PROJECT LIKE THIS TAKE PLACE
9:02:42PM RIGHT ACROSS FROM ENCORE AND I HAVE TO GIVE THE DEVELOPERS
9:02:45PM CREDIT.
9:02:47PM YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN A GOOD NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN NEIGHBORS COME
9:02:50PM AND KNOCK ON YOUR DOOR BEFORE YOU GO KNOCK ON THEIR DOOR AND
9:02:54PM ASK WHAT'S GOING ON.
9:02:59PM OVER TWO YEARS AGO THEY CAME TO ME AS THE TAMPA HOUSING
9:03:01PM AUTHORITY AND FOR TWO YEARS NOW THEY HAVE BEEN SHARING THIS
9:03:04PM PLAN AS IT HAS EVOLVED.
9:03:06PM WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO ACTUALLY COLLABORATE ON HOW THESE TWO
9:03:10PM COMMUNITIES WILL NOT BECOME ISOLATED FROM ONE ANOTHER, BUT
9:03:15PM WILL BE CONNECTED TO ONE ANOTHER WITH ROADWAYS AS WELL AS
9:03:20PM COMPATIBLE USES, AS WELL AS DENSITIES.
9:03:22PM SO WE'VE ACTUALLY BEEN ABLE TO PUT OUR PLANNERS ON LOTS THAT
9:03:27PM ARE GOING TO BE FACING THEIR DEVELOPMENT WITH THEIR
9:03:31PM DEVELOPMENT TEAM SO THAT THERE'S SOME GREAT SIMILARITIES AND
9:03:35PM SYMMETRY ACROSS NEBRASKA AVENUE, WHICH IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR
9:03:38PM ENCORE.
9:03:39PM HAVING PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPERS ENGAGED IN PROVIDING
9:03:44PM AFFORDABLE HOUSING IS SO VERY CRUCIAL FOR OUR CITY.
9:03:47PM THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN IN TAMPA OFTEN.
9:03:50PM AND WE'VE GOT TO CREATE THE MECHANISM TO ALLOW A LOT MORE OF
9:03:54PM THAT TO HAPPEN.
9:03:55PM SO WHEN A PROJECT LIKE THIS IS GOING TO BE DELIVERING 325
9:03:59PM AFFORDABLE UNITS, IT IS AN INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY FOR
9:04:05PM LOW-INCOME PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO LIVE, WORK, RECREATE IN A
9:04:10PM VERY HIGH AMENITIZED AREA AND LOWER THEIR COST OF LIVING NOT
9:04:15PM JUST FROM AFFORDABLE HOUSING BUT BEING ABLE TO REDUCE THEIR
9:04:18PM RELIANCE ON AUTOMOBILE TRANSPORTATION AS WELL.
9:04:22PM I RISE IN SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.
9:04:24PM AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR CONSIDERING IT.
9:04:26PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:04:31PM >> GOOD EVENING, CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS.
9:04:33PM MY NAME IS LEE BELL.
9:04:35PM I'M PRESIDENT AND CEO OF THE YBOR CITY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
9:04:38PM THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK BEFORE YOU THIS
9:04:41PM EVENING.
9:04:42PM ON BEHALF OF THE YBOR CITY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, WE WOULD
9:04:45PM LIKE TO OFFER OUR SUPPORT FOR THE GAS WORX DEVELOPMENT
9:04:48PM MASTER PLAN.
9:04:49PM YBOR HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME ONE OF THE MOST DESIRED
9:04:53PM RELOCATION DESTINATIONS IN TAMPA BAY AND WE BELIEVE THAT GAS
9:04:57PM WORX PROJECT WILL MAKE IT A REALITY BY REDEVELOPING A
9:05:01PM CURRENTLY ABANDONED AREA AND MAKE IT A COMMUNITY FAMILY
9:05:06PM FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD.
9:05:07PM THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IS COMMITTED TO COMPLIMENTING AND
9:05:12PM HONORING YBOR CITY'S UNIQUE HISTORY.
9:05:14PM REVITALIZING THE HISTORIC DISTRICT THAT MAKES UP THE SOUL OF
9:05:18PM TAMPA.
9:05:19PM YBOR CITY, OUR CHAMBER, AND THE CITY OF TAMPA WILL BENEFIT
9:05:23PM FROM THE RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES THAT GAS WORX WILL
9:05:27PM ATTRACT.
9:05:28PM IT IS CRUCIAL TO MENTION THAT GAS WORX WILL PROVIDE BETTER
9:05:33PM CONNECTIVITY AND MOBILITY IN THE CITY MAKING IT ONE OF THE
9:05:36PM MOST WALKABLE NEIGHBORHOODS WITH PRIORITY GIVEN TO
9:05:40PM PEDESTRIANS AND BIKE TRAFFIC.
9:05:42PM WE BELIEVE THE PROPOSED MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT WILL BE A
9:05:45PM GREAT CONTRIBUTION TO YBOR CITY AND THE ENTIRE TAMPA BAY
9:05:48PM REGION.
9:05:49PM GAS WORX WILL ADD THE NEEDED HOUSING UNITS TO ACCOMMODATE
9:05:51PM THE ONGOING POPULATION GROWTH IN OUR COMMUNITY, STIMULATE
9:05:55PM THE LOCAL ECONOMY, AND ENHANCE YBOR CITY'S HISTORIC
9:06:00PM DISTRICT.
9:06:01PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
9:06:02PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:06:08PM >> MY NAME IS MAX CHILLURA.
9:06:11PM I'M A RESIDENT OF YBOR CITY.
9:06:13PM I OWN A HOUSE THERE.
9:06:14PM AND I AM A BUSINESS OWNER.
9:06:16PM I OWN CHILL BROS ICE CREAM.
9:06:19PM I CHOSE YBOR CITY AS THE LOCATION OF MY BUSINESS AND THE
9:06:24PM FIRST LOCATION OF MY BUSINESS WHERE WE MADE ALL THE ICE
9:06:27PM CREAM BECAUSE I SAW A LOT OF POTENTIAL IN THE GROWTH OF THE
9:06:33PM CITY AS WELL AS THE HISTORICAL COMPONENTS.
9:06:40PM EVERYTHING THERE IS TO LOVE ABOUT YBOR CITY.
9:06:44PM FROM THERE -- MY MAIN POINT TONIGHT IS JUST THIS DEVELOPMENT
9:07:01PM IS SOMETHING I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT.
9:07:04PM IT'S GOING TO BOOST THE AMOUNT OF JOBS.
9:07:06PM IT'S GOING TO BOOST THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC THAT WE GET IN OUR
9:07:11PM YBOR CITY.
9:07:12PM AND ULTIMATELY THAT MEANS A LOT FOR SMALL BUSINESSES,
9:07:16PM UP-AND-COMING BUSINESSES LIKE MY OWN.
9:07:22PM AND THIS TEAM IS DOING AN EXCELLENT JOB OF PUTTING THAT
9:07:26PM TOGETHER.
9:07:27PM THANK YOU.
9:07:27PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:07:28PM COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
9:07:29PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SIR, MR. CHILLURA, THIS IN NO WAY
9:07:34PM AFFECTS MY DECISION TONIGHT, BUT CHILL BROTHERS IS THE BEST
9:07:39PM ICE CREAM IN TAMPA.
9:07:42PM [ LAUGHTER ]
9:07:45PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: ARE YOU GOING TO BUY SOME NEXT THURSDAY FOR
9:07:49PM ALL OF US?
9:07:49PM I'M WAITING FOR AN ANSWER.
9:07:55PM ARE YOU GOING TO BUY US ICE CREAM TO SHOW US HOW GOOD IT IS?
9:07:59PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: TAMPA BANANA THAT'S ONE OF THE FLAVORS.
9:08:03PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: FINE.
9:08:04PM EXPECT IT NEXT THURSDAY.
9:08:05PM I DON'T THINK ONE GALLON IS GOING TO GET IT.
9:08:10PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
9:08:11PM MY NAME IS EARNEST HOOPER.
9:08:13PM I'M HERE AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE
9:08:16PM PROJECT.
9:08:18PM LEGACY AND COMMUNITY MATTER.
9:08:19PM WHEN IT COMES TO OUR FAMILY, OUR HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS, AND
9:08:23PM OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS, THEY MATTER DURING TAMPA'S EARLIEST
9:08:27PM DAYS AND THEY MATTER NOW.
9:08:31PM I'VE SPENT MORE THAN A YEAR VOLUNTEERING AT BOOKER T.
9:08:33PM WASHINGTON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
9:08:35PM AND IT'S A MEANINGFUL ENGAGEMENT BECAUSE MY GREAT
9:08:38PM GRANDFATHER WAS A TEACHER AND PRINCIPAL AT BOOKER T.
9:08:42PM WASHINGTON IN THE 1930s AND 40s.
9:08:47PM READING TO KIDS AT THE SCHOOL ALLOWS ME TO CARRY ON THE
9:08:50PM LEGACY OF MY GRANDFATHER AND THE NUMEROUS EDUCATORS IN MY
9:08:56PM FAMILY.
9:08:56PM WHEN I FIRST LEARNED ABOUT GAS WORX AND SPOKE TO DARRYL SHAW
9:09:00PM ABOUT HIS PLANS, I IMMEDIATELY ASKED HIM, HOW WILL BOOKER T.
9:09:04PM WASHINGTON FIT INTO THE NEW FOOTPRINT?
9:09:09PM OF COURSE, THE SCHOOL'S ONGOING EXISTENCE LIES WITH THE
9:09:13PM SCHOOL DISTRICT, BUT I'M HAPPY TO SAY THAT MR. SHAW WAS NOT
9:09:18PM ONLY AWARE OF BOOKER T. WASHINGTON'S HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE,
9:09:22PM BUT HE HAD ALREADY DEVELOPED A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE BOOKER
9:09:26PM T. WASHINGTON PRINCIPAL AND GIVEN SUPPORT TO THE SCHOOL.
9:09:30PM TO ME, THIS IS A SMALL BUT TELLING ASPECT ABOUT THE MAN AND
9:09:36PM THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PROJECT.
9:09:39PM LEGACY MATTERS TO THEM.
9:09:41PM COMMUNITY MATTERS TO THEM.
9:09:44PM IT'S THE ATTENTION GIVEN TO THESE DETAILS THAT LEAD ME TO
9:09:48PM SUPPORT GAS WORX, MR. SHAW, AND HIS TEAM.
9:09:52PM YOU TALK ABOUT LEGACY AND COMMUNITY, YOU HAVE TO TALK ABOUT
9:09:56PM INCLUSION.
9:09:58PM GAS WORX WILL FEATURE 325 AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS, MORE
9:10:02PM THAN THE NUMBER OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS THAT PREVIOUSLY
9:10:06PM EXISTED ON THAT SITE.
9:10:08PM THAT'S INCLUSION.
9:10:10PM IT WILL ALSO INCLUDE A GROCERY STORE.
9:10:15PM EXTENDING LIFE FOR THE NEARBY ENCORE NEIGHBORHOOD.
9:10:21PM HAVING FIRST MOVED TO HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY IN 1988, I'VE
9:10:25PM ALWAYS TRIED TO BE A VOICE FOR POSITIVE CHANGE AND LET MY
9:10:31PM CARE FOR THE COMMUNITY LEAD MY ACTIONS.
9:10:34PM GAS WORX REFLECTS THAT CARE.
9:10:37PM IT WILL CREATE A RISING TIDE THAT WILL LIFT ALL BOATS.
9:10:43PM STRENGTHEN YBOR CITY, CONNECT HISTORIC DISTRICT TO
9:10:45PM CHANNELSIDE AND DOWNTOWN TAMPA AND ADD TO THE CITY'S
9:10:48PM PROSPERITY AND SUSTAINABILITY.
9:10:49PM THAT'S WHY THIS PROJECT HAS MY SUPPORT.
9:10:51PM THANK YOU.
9:10:55PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:10:56PM >> GOOD EVENING, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE COUNCIL.
9:10:58PM I APPRECIATE YOU GUYS HAVING US TODAY.
9:11:00PM I'LL TRY TO KEEP IT SHORT FOR YOU.
9:11:02PM MY NAME IS FRANK DE LA GRANA.
9:11:04PM I'M HERE IN SUPPORT OF THE GAS WORX PROJECT.
9:11:07PM GIVE YOU A BACKGROUND ON MYSELF, I AM A FOURTH GENERATION
9:11:10PM TAMPA YBOR CITY NATIVE AND I CONSIDER MYSELF A PRODUCT OF
9:11:14PM YBOR CITY.
9:11:14PM MY GREAT GRANDFATHER, BIG JOE LICATA OPENED MECCA CAFE IN
9:11:21PM 1920 WHERE THE TRUIST BUILDING NOW SITS ON 7th AVENUE.
9:11:24PM ACROSS THE STREET FROM THAT, MY GRANDFATHER, FRANK
9:11:24PM DE LA GRANA, OPENED DE LA GRANA TRAVELING TOURISM, WHICH WAS
9:11:32PM CATTY-CORNER FROM THAT.
9:11:34PM I GREW UP IN YBOR CITY.
9:11:35PM MY DAD STILL HAS HIS LAW PRACTICE IN THE BUILDING WHERE MY
9:11:40PM GRANDFATHER STARTED HIS TRAVEL AGENCY.
9:11:42PM I'VE LIVED IN YBOR CITY FOR FIVE YEARS, AND IT'S A PART OF
9:11:45PM ME.
9:11:46PM I LOVE YBOR WITH ALL MY HEART.
9:11:48PM I DON'T KNOW MR. SHAW ON A PERSONAL LEVEL, BUT I BELIEVE IN
9:11:51PM HIS VISION.
9:11:52PM I BELIEVE THAT THE SECRET IS OUT ON OUR CITY.
9:11:55PM EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT A WONDERFUL PLACE THIS IS AND THEY ARE
9:11:58PM GOING TO BE MOVING HERE NO MATTER WHAT.
9:12:00PM SO THIS PROJECT IS MUCH NEEDED.
9:12:02PM IT'S GOING TO CONNECT YBOR CITY TO THE REST OF ALL THE
9:12:05PM WONDERFUL DEVELOPMENTS THAT ARE GOING ON AND ADD TO THE
9:12:07PM FUTURE AND HISTORY OF THE WONDERFUL CITY.
9:12:12PM I SUPPORT THIS DEVELOPMENT.
9:12:13PM THANK YOU.
9:12:14PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:12:19PM >> HELLO.
9:12:20PM THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME SPEAK TODAY.
9:12:23PM MY NAME IS NICOLE RODRIGUEZ.
9:12:25PM I AM THE OWNER OF YBOR CITY LAUNDRY -- ON THE BAY, AND LOS
9:12:27PM CHAPOS TACOS, ALL OF WHICH ARE LOCATED IN FRONT OF THE
9:12:32PM FORMER TAMPA PARK HOUSING PROJECTS OFF 7th AVENUE AND
9:12:35PM SCOTT STREET.
9:12:36PM LOS CHAPOS TACOS STARTED AS A TINY LITTLE FOOD TRUCK WITH
9:12:41PM TWO EMPLOYEES.
9:12:42PM IT HAS SINCE GROWN TO A WOMAN-OWNED BUSINESS WITH OVER 30
9:12:45PM EMPLOYEES ACROSS THREE LOCATIONS.
9:12:46PM TWO OF THE LOCATIONS ARE IN YBOR CITY.
9:12:48PM I STARTED MY BUSINESS BACK IN 2019, AND I HAVE HAD A
9:12:52PM STOREFRONT IN YBOR SINCE 2021.
9:12:55PM MY TEAM HAS BEEN BLESSED.
9:12:56PM WE TRULY BELIEVE YBOR COULD BE THE NUMBER ONE DESTINATION IN
9:13:00PM ALL TAMPA BAY, BUT WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.
9:13:03PM GAS WORX, THE 50-ACRE MIXED USE SITE, WOULD HAVE A
9:13:06PM FAR-REACHING POSITIVE IMPACT, ATTRACTING OTHER INVESTORS AND
9:13:10PM TRANSFORMING SMALL SHOPS INTO SUSTAINABLE LASTING
9:13:13PM BUSINESSES.
9:13:14PM IT WOULD COMPLEMENT THE NEIGHBORHOOD'S AUTHENTIC CHARACTER
9:13:18PM HONORING THE RICH HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE OF YBOR CITY WHILE
9:13:21PM REDEVELOPING ABANDONED BUILDINGS AND UNDERUTILIZED LOTS.
9:13:24PM BUT THAT'S NOT ALL.
9:13:26PM I BELIEVE THE PROPOSED LOCATION WOULD FILL THE GAP BETWEEN
9:13:28PM THE HISTORIC DISTRICT AND THE NEW WATER STREET.
9:13:31PM SINCE MY ARRIVAL MUCH OF THE BUILDINGS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
9:13:33PM HAVE BEEN VACANT.
9:13:36PM I'D LIKE TO HELP BRING LIFE BACK TO YBOR.
9:13:38PM THE REVITALIZATION WOULD BE REMARKABLE.
9:13:45PM THE DEVELOPER'S COMMITMENT TO PROVIDING 325 AFFORDABLE
9:13:47PM HOUSING UNITS WOULD ADD DENSITY TO THE COMMUNITY.
9:13:51PM CURRENTLY, THERE ARE NO APARTMENTS CLOSE BY.
9:13:54PM MANY OF MY EMPLOYEES LIVE OUTSIDE OF YBOR.
9:13:56PM SOME UP TO 45 MINUTES AWAY.
9:13:59PM THOUGH THEY WOULD DEFINITELY MOVE TO YBOR IF THEY COULD, THE
9:14:02PM PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT WOULD MAKE THIS POSSIBLE.
9:14:04PM WHEN I FIRST HEARD ABOUT GAS WORX, IT WAS TACO TUESDAY AND A
9:14:08PM FOX 13 NEWS ANCHOR ASKED ME TO DO AN INTERVIEW ABOUT HOW THE
9:14:12PM DEVELOPMENT WOULD AFFECT MY RESTAURANT.
9:14:14PM ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS HOW GREAT THIS PROJECT COULD BE
9:14:16PM AND HOW INCREDIBLE IT WOULD BE TO SUPPORT HOUSING CHOICES
9:14:20PM AND AFFORDABILITY AND STRENGTHEN THE COMMUNITY.
9:14:22PM BRINGING GAS WORX INTO YBOR WOULD BE AMAZING NOT ONLY FOR MY
9:14:27PM BUSINESS BUT FOR EVERYONE IN THE AREA.
9:14:28PM ARMATURE WORKS WAS A SUCCESS.
9:14:30PM SPARKMAN WHARF TWO AND NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT GAS WORX
9:14:36PM WOULD BE JUST AS SUCCESSFUL.
9:14:37PM TAMPA IS GROWING QUICKLY AND WE NEED TO GROW WITH OUR CITY
9:14:40PM IN ORDER TO THRIVE.
9:14:41PM GAS WORX WOULD MAKE THIS POSSIBLE.
9:14:43PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.
9:14:44PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU.
9:14:50PM >> GOOD EVENING, MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL.
9:14:53PM MY NAME IS EJ SALCINES.
9:14:57PM I AM A NATIVE OF TAMPA AND I AM HERE IN TOTAL SUPPORT OF
9:15:00PM THIS PROJECT THAT HAS BEEN OUTLINED TO YOU IN DETAIL SO I
9:15:08PM NOT NEED REPEAT ANY OF WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN SAID.
9:15:11PM BUT KNOWING THE PARTNERS THAT DARRYL SHAW HAS PUT TOGETHER,
9:15:16PM MANY OF THEM THAT ARE HERE OUTSTANDING CITIZENS OF THIS
9:15:21PM COMMUNITY SUPPORTING THIS PROJECT.
9:15:23PM I ECHO THE TOTALITY OF WHAT HAS BEEN PRESENTED TO YOU.
9:15:28PM 50 YEARS AGO AS A YOUNG ELECTED PROSECUTING ATTORNEY, I SAW
9:15:34PM SOMETHING CHANGING IN MY NATIVE CITY.
9:15:38PM I SAW A LOT OF WAREHOUSES FULL OF RATS COMING DOWN AND
9:15:43PM DISAPPEARING.
9:15:45PM A GROUP OF MEN WITH VISION, WITH DETERMINATION, AND WITH A
9:15:50PM LOT OF MONEY, NOT ONLY PUBLIC, BUT PRIVATE CITIZENS, PUT
9:15:56PM TOGETHER AN EFFORT THAT 50 YEARS AGO STARTED TRANSFORMING IN
9:16:02PM WHAT WE NOW HAVE THIS GREAT CHAMPION CITY THAT WE'RE ALL
9:16:07PM PROUD TO CALL TAMPA.
9:16:10PM WHEN I MET DARRYL SHAW, HE TOLD ME WHAT HIS VISION WAS.
9:16:15PM I WANTED TO KNOW WHO HIS PARTNERS WERE.
9:16:17PM I MET HIS PARTNERS MANY OF WHOM I'VE KNOWN FROM CHILDHOOD.
9:16:23PM WE ARE ALL CONVINCED THAT THIS GAS WORX PROJECT WILL BE A
9:16:29PM MASSIVE TRANSFUSION THAT WILL REVITALIZE AN AREA THAT HAS
9:16:35PM BEEN NOT ONLY DORMANT BUT ALMOST DYING IN THIS AREA OF TOWN.
9:16:42PM THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.
9:16:45PM I SPEAK TO ALL OF YOU FROM THE HEARTS OF THE CITIZENS OF
9:16:50PM TAMPA WHO KNOW AND LOVE THIS AREA.
9:16:54PM THIS IS GOING TO BE A MAJOR TRANSFUSION.
9:16:57PM I MAY NOT SEE IT 50 YEARS FROM NOW, BUT IT WILL BRING A NEW
9:17:03PM VITALITY TO THIS AREA.
9:17:05PM AND I'M ALSO PLEASED TO ASSURE YOU THAT THESE INDIVIDUALS
9:17:10PM THAT ARE BEHIND THIS PROJECT KNOW OUR GREAT HISTORY.
9:17:15PM THEY KNOW THE GREAT BLENDING OF THE DIFFERENT CULTURES,
9:17:20PM ETHNICITIES, RACES, AND THEY ALL SUPPORT MAKING TAMPA EVEN
9:17:26PM BETTER.
9:17:27PM AND I URGE YOU TO SUPPORT THIS PROJECT.
9:17:30PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
9:17:31PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.
9:17:35PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: BELATED BIRTHDAY TO YOU, MR. SALCINES.
9:17:45PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: IS THERE ANY OTHER PUBLIC COMMENT?
9:17:49PM MR. HUDSON.
9:17:52PM NEED I ASK THAT YOU NEED TIME FOR REBUTTAL?
9:18:02PM >> NO.
9:18:02PM THANK YOU.
9:18:03PM [ LAUGHTER ]
9:18:05PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: MR. HUDSON, DOES THIS FINISH YOUR
9:18:08PM PRESENTATION?
9:18:11PM >> THIS IS THE CONCLUSION OF OUR PRESENTATION AND WILLING TO
9:18:13PM WAIVE ANY TIME FOR REBUTTAL.
9:18:16PM HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE AND APPRECIATE YOUR
9:18:18PM PATIENCE THIS EVENING.
9:18:19PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
9:18:20PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE VERY
9:18:23PM DETAILED PRESENTATION.
9:18:25PM I'M ALSO BORN AND RAISED IN TAMPA.
9:18:28PM MY FAMILY DOES NOT HAVE YBOR CITY HISTORY SADLY BECAUSE MY
9:18:34PM MOTHER AND GRANDPARENTS CAME FROM CUBA IN 1961, 1962 IS WHEN
9:18:40PM THEY CAME HERE BUT THEY ALWAYS HAD A LOVE FOR YBOR CITY.
9:18:43PM MY GRANDMOTHER WOULD TELL ME STORIES OF SOME OF THE PEOPLE
9:18:45PM THAT SPOKE, THEIR GRANTS AND OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS AND
9:18:49PM MEMORIES THEY HAD FROM THE COLUMBIA RESTAURANT AND CESAR
9:18:54PM GONZMART AND ALL THIS STUFF.
9:18:56PM BUT THEY ALSO TELL ME ABOUT THE DECLINE IN YBOR, SOMETHING
9:18:59PM JUDGE SALCINES MENTIONED IN THE '70s AND '80s AND THEN
9:19:02PM WE SAW A REVIVAL IN THE '90s, BUT NOTHING OF THIS
9:19:07PM MAGNITUDE.
9:19:08PM I'VE BEEN WAITING A LONG TIME FOR THE RENAISSANCE OF YBOR
9:19:11PM CITY.
9:19:11PM AND I THINK THIS PROJECT, GAS WORX, IS GOING TO BE THAT
9:19:16PM CATALYST THAT MAKES YBOR CITY EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN IT
9:19:20PM WAS BEFORE.
9:19:21PM SO I'M VERY HAPPY TO SUPPORT IT AND I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO
9:19:25PM -- YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING TO BE TRANSFORMATIONAL IN WAYS THAT
9:19:28PM YOU CAN SEE THE RENDERINGS, BUT UNTIL WE SEE IT AND CAN WALK
9:19:32PM THE STREETS, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED ALONG WITH WATER
9:19:35PM STREET, WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT IN TAMPA
9:19:38PM HEIGHTS, THIS IS GOING TO COMPLETE THAT PUZZLE.
9:19:41PM THANK YOU TO MR. SHAW FOR YOUR VISION AND ALL HIS PARTNERS.
9:19:45PM EVERYBODY I SEE, MR. GUYARDO, MR. BUCHMAN, SO MANY OTHER
9:19:50PM PEOPLE, BUT WE NEED THIS AND THIS IS GOING TO BRING YBOR
9:19:53PM CITY ALIVE IN WAYS THAT WE CANNOT IMAGINE.
9:19:56PM SO THANK YOU.
9:19:56PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
9:19:58PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
9:19:59PM MR. CHAIRMAN, I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO EACH AND EVERY
9:20:02PM ONE OF YOU.
9:20:03PM I HAD THE PLEASURE, THE HONOR, AND THE LUCK REALLY TO BE
9:20:07PM BORN IN YBOR CITY.
9:20:10PM AND THERE'S NOTHING ELSE, IN FACT, MY FIRST RACE HORSE I
9:20:13PM BRED I NAMED HIM YBOR CITY CHARLIE AND HE NEVER WON A RACE.
9:20:18PM BUT THEN I CAME BACK AND I NAMED ANOTHER HORSE THAT I OWN
9:20:22PM CALLED CUBAN SANDWICH.
9:20:24PM AND HE BECAME A STAKES PLACE WINNER.
9:20:27PM A SANDWICH IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN CHARLIE.
9:20:30PM WHAT I'M SAYING THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE AND
9:20:34PM WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
9:20:36PM YBOR DID DEMISE BUT IT WAS MORE THAN ONE THING.
9:20:39PM CERTAINLY WHEN THE CIGAR FACTORIES BECAME DORMANT, CIGAR
9:20:44PM INDUSTRY LEFT AND THOSE PEOPLE THAT STARTED THE FACTORIES,
9:20:47PM THAT WORKED IN THE FACTORIES, THEY ALSO LEFT BY AGE I GUESS.
9:20:52PM AND WHEN THE KIDS GOT EDUCATED THEY FOUND A BETTER JOB THAN
9:20:55PM WHAT THEY HAD BEFORE THAT THEIR PARENTS HAVE AND THEY MOVED
9:20:58PM OUT.
9:20:58PM SO WHEN THEY MOVED OUT, THERE WERE A LOT OF VACANT HOMES.
9:21:03PM YEAH, THEY WANT TO BLAME THE EXPRESSWAY FOR EVERYTHING.
9:21:06PM THAT'S PART OF IT BUT IN MY OPINION IT WAS A COMBINATION OF
9:21:09PM MANY THINGS.
9:21:11PM THE COLUMBIA IS A GREAT PLACE.
9:21:14PM I STARTED WORKING THERE WAY BACK WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER.
9:21:18PM IN MY OPINION, I'M STILL A TEENAGER, BUT IT AIN'T HOW YOU
9:21:21PM LOOK.
9:21:22PM IT'S HOW YOU FEEL.
9:21:23PM I'M GETTING KIND OF OLD.
9:21:25PM BUT THANK YOU ALL FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
9:21:28PM THIS WOULD BE THE ENDING STRAP OF A CITY BECAUSE NOW YOU'VE
9:21:33PM GOT DEVELOPMENT WHERE USED TO BE LADRAGA.
9:21:38PM AND THEN YOU HAVE DEVELOPMENT WHERE USED TO BE TAMPA HEIGHTS
9:21:41PM THAT YOU HAD A BRIDGE THAT TWO INDIVIDUALS WOULD TURN AROUND
9:21:45PM AND PEOPLE FORGOT THAT BRIDGE IS THERE NOW THAT GOES OVER
9:21:47PM THE RIVER WAS NOT THERE.
9:21:49PM THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE.
9:21:50PM IT WAS WOOD I THINK WHEN I WAS A KID.
9:21:53PM BUT THOSE THINGS ARE FORGOTTEN.
9:21:56PM SO WHEN YOU SEE ALL THAT AND YOU SEE IT COMING BACK AND
9:22:00PM THINGS HAVE CHANGED, THEY JUST GOT MORE MODERN BECAUSE
9:22:04PM EVERYBODY USED TO WALK.
9:22:06PM NO ONE IN YBOR CITY, CARS YOU HAD MAYBE 10 CARS WHERE I
9:22:10PM LIVED AT.
9:22:11PM THAT WAS A SQUARE MILE.
9:22:13PM AND THERE WERE HORSES IN YBOR CITY.
9:22:15PM THERE WERE COWS, GOATS.
9:22:20PM AND EVERYBODY HAD CHICKENS.
9:22:21PM IT WAS LIKE LIVING IN A SMALL FARM WITH NEIGHBORS RIGHT
9:22:25PM CLOSE TO YOU.
9:22:26PM ODD BUT TRUE.
9:22:27PM SO IT IS WHAT IT IS.
9:22:29PM AND THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A RENAISSANCE, A NEW RENAISSANCE.
9:22:34PM CERTAINLY IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT USED TO BUT IT LOOKS MUCH
9:22:37PM BETTER.
9:22:37PM I THINK WHEN YOU FINISH THIS HERE, TAMPA WOULD BE THE ENVY
9:22:41PM OF NO CITY IN ANY PART OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
9:22:44PM IT WILL BE BETTER THAN ANY ONE OF THEM.
9:22:48PM GOT THE PORT, THE AIRPORT, GOT DIFFERENT CULTURES, DIFFERENT
9:22:53PM FEELS, DIFFERENT FLAVORS.
9:22:55PM I REMEMBER GOING MANY TIMES TO THE FONTAINEBLEAU HOTEL JUST
9:22:56PM TO GO SEE TROPICALA.
9:23:02PM I KNOW YOU ALL ARE FALLING ASLEEP BECAUSE YOU ARE OLDER THAN
9:23:06PM I AM.
9:23:07PM WE CAN STILL TALK FOREVER.
9:23:11PM THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
9:23:12PM THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU'RE PLANNING TO DO.
9:23:14PM READ YOUR ARTICLES --
9:23:18PM THANK YOU.
9:23:23PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: IS THAT COUNCILMAN CARLSON?
9:23:25PM >>BILL CARLSON: YES.
9:23:26PM IF YOU DON'T MINDS, I'LL SAY SOMETHING FAST.
9:23:29PM A LOT OF VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN THE ROOM, PEOPLE OF GREAT
9:23:34PM CHARACTER WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED A LOT TO OUR COMMUNITY OVER
9:23:37PM THE YEARS, AND ALSO PEOPLE OF GREAT VISION.
9:23:42PM I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR THEIR PARTICIPATION.
9:23:44PM THE EASIEST CASES FOR US TO HANDLE ARE THE BEST CASES WHEN A
9:23:49PM GROUP TAKES THEIR TIME TO REALLY UNDERSTAND THE COMMUNITY,
9:23:53PM MEET WITH ALL THE DIFFERENT CONSTITUENTS AND STAKEHOLDERS
9:23:57PM AND ALSO THE CITY AND WORK OUT ALL THE ISSUES.
9:24:00PM AND THIS GROUP AS WE'VE WATCHED HAVE TAKEN THEIR TIME AND
9:24:05PM MET WITH EVERYBODY.
9:24:07PM I GUESS WE DON'T HAVE A SINGLE ONE OPPOSED TO IT IN THE
9:24:10PM ROOM.
9:24:11PM I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR THEIR VISION AND EVERYTHING
9:24:13PM THAT THEY CONTRIBUTED TO OUR COMMUNITY AND ALSO I WILL SAY
9:24:17PM WITHOUT ANY INFLUENCE ON HOW I'LL VOTE, MY KIDS -- MY
9:24:21PM FAVORITE FLAVOR AT CHILL BROS IS -- MY KIDS LOVE THAT PLACE.
9:24:30PM THEY PERKED UP BEHIND ME WHEN YOU STARTED TALK ABOUT IT.
9:24:34PM THE OTHER FLAVOR IS CHOCOLATE AT ULELE'S.
9:24:38PM I WILL TALK ABOUT FOOD LATER.
9:24:40PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN VIERA, ONE MOMENT.
9:24:43PM COUNCILMAN GUDES.
9:24:45PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE TALK ABOUT HISTORY.
9:24:48PM REMEMBER WHEN THE OLD FRANKLIN FUNERAL HOME WAS ON NEBRASKA
9:24:52PM AS A BOY.
9:24:53PM I CAN REMEMBER THE NIGHTCLUB WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL GOING
9:24:58PM OUT TO TAMPA PARK AFTER FOOTBALL GAME, GETTING HOME LATE.
9:25:06PM GET HOME 15, 20 MINUTES LATE.
9:25:09PM TAMPA PARK IS LOST, BUT YOU HAVE SOME FOUNDERS, MR. HARVEY,
9:25:15PM MR. ANDREWS WHO PUT TAMPA PARK TOGETHER BECAUSE OF THE NEED
9:25:20PM OF OUR LONGSHOREMEN.
9:25:25PM LONGSHOREMEN AT THE PORT.
9:25:26PM SO I'M JUST HOPING THAT WHEN WE DO THESE DEVELOPMENTS WE
9:25:31PM REMEMBER WHO USED TO LIVE THERE.
9:25:35PM WE KEEP THE FAITH OF KEEPING IT INCLUSIONARY, MAKING SURE
9:25:39PM THAT EVERYONE HAS A PLACE TO BE ABLE TO GO AND SAY I KNOW
9:25:42PM WHAT WAS THERE ONCE BEFORE BUT WE'RE STILL ALLOWED TO COME
9:25:47PM HERE.
9:25:47PM WE'RE PART OF THE PROJECT.
9:25:48PM WE'RE PART OF THE ATMOSPHERE.
9:25:49PM YOU HAVE TO HAVE THAT BECAUSE I CAN REMEMBER MY MOM USED TO
9:25:52PM TAKE ME DOWN TO YBOR CITY, DR. PARTLE.
9:25:56PM MOST OF THE BLACK KIDS' DOCTOR, DR. PARTLE.
9:26:00PM ABOUT FOUR, FIVE MONTHS AGO, I MET IS HIS SON.
9:26:03PM WE WERE DOWN THERE -- GUIDO, YOU WERE THERE.
9:26:06PM SON OF DR. PARTLE.
9:26:09PM DOWN THERE FOR THE RIBBON CUTTING.
9:26:12PM REMEMBER?
9:26:12PM YOU HAD HISPANIC PEOPLE, ITALIAN PEOPLE, EVERYBODY DOWN IN
9:26:18PM YBOR.
9:26:18PM BLACK PEOPLE.
9:26:19PM SO THAT AREA WAS AN AREA FOR EVERYBODY.
9:26:22PM I'M HOPING WHEN IT COMES BACK, MR. SHAW, THAT WE DON'T
9:26:27PM FORGET WHAT WE SAID, WE KEEP OUR PROMISES AND MAKE SURE IT'S
9:26:30PM INCLUSIVE.
9:26:31PM I'M GLAD YOU HAVE HOUSING IN THERE.
9:26:33PM THAT IS A BIG PART OF WHAT WE'RE GOING THROUGH IN THE CITY,
9:26:37PM INCLUSION.
9:26:38PM I BELIEVE WHEN PEOPLE ARE WORKING TOGETHER -- NOT POOR
9:26:43PM PEOPLE, PEOPLE GETTING AN OPPORTUNITY.
9:26:48PM SEE HOW MR. GUIDO HAS MADE IT AND TALK TO HIM HE CAN GIVE ME
9:26:53PM IDEAS THEN I BECOME BETTER.
9:26:55PM THEN I BECOME ABLE TO HELP SOMEBODY ELSE.
9:26:58PM I HOPE AND PRAY WE HAVE ALL THESE DEVELOPMENTS GOING ON,
9:27:01PM REMEMBER THAT EVERYBODY IS ENTITLED TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY
9:27:03PM AND WE GIVE EVERYBODY AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE THERE.
9:27:06PM THANK YOU.
9:27:06PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILMAN VIERA.
9:27:07PM >>LUIS VIERA: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
9:27:10PM AND THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYBODY WHO CAME OUT.
9:27:13PM MY APOLOGIES FOR NOT BEING THERE LIVE.
9:27:15PM I'M ACTUALLY IN CITY HALL, BUT I HAD COVID AND I HAVE A LOT
9:27:19PM OF COUGHING GOING ON, SO I DIDN'T THINK IT PROPER TO BE IN
9:27:22PM THE ROOM.
9:27:23PM BUT I'M NEGATIVE, THANK GOD.
9:27:25PM I JUST WANTED TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR COMING OUT.
9:27:27PM I'M ON CASES LIKE THIS.
9:27:33PM IT'S GREAT TO SEE A MORAL PURPOSE COMBINED WITH SOMETHING
9:27:37PM THAT IS LEGALLY SUFFICIENT BEFORE US.
9:27:40PM THAT ISSUE OF LEGAL SUFFICIENCY I THINK SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.
9:27:44PM BUT WE HAVE HAD PEOPLE WHOSE NAMES MEAN A LOT NOT JUST FOR
9:27:47PM THE CITY OF TAMPA BUT FOR YBOR CITY IN PARTICULAR COME OUT
9:27:51PM AND VOUCH UPON THEIR LEGACY AND THEIR GOOD NAME FOR THIS
9:27:57PM PROJECT AND THAT IT WILL BE CONSISTENT WITH THE VISION OF
9:28:00PM YBOR, CONSISTENT WITH THE HISTORY OF YBOR AND RESPECTFUL OF
9:28:04PM WHAT YBOR CITY SYMBOLIZES TO OUR CITY OF TAMPA.
9:28:07PM ANYBODY WHO'S HAD FAMILY FOR GENERATIONS IN TAMPA HAS
9:28:12PM CONNECTIONS TO YBOR CITY.
9:28:13PM I KNOW I CERTAINLY HAVE.
9:28:14PM MY PATERNAL GRANDFATHER LIVED THERE FOR A LITTLE BIT, GOSH,
9:28:17PM PROBABLY 90, 100 YEARS AGO AND OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS.
9:28:21PM AND YBOR CITY WHERE SO MANY OF US HAVE COME THROUGH AND TO
9:28:25PM HAVE A PROJECT LIKE THIS THAT AFFIRMS THE HISTORY OF YBOR
9:28:29PM CITY THROUGH GIANTS THAT MEAN SO MUCH TO YBOR CITY I THINK
9:28:33PM JUST MEANS A LOT TO THIS COUNCIL.
9:28:36PM I'LL SPEAK FOR MYSELF THAT IT IS SOMETHING THAT I'M PROUD TO
9:28:41PM SUPPORT.
9:28:41PM I KNOW THAT IN DOING THIS WE TRUST THAT CERTAIN VALUES WILL
9:28:46PM BE KEPT IN THE PROJECT AND I FEEL THAT THEY WILL.
9:28:48PM I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR THE HARD WORK IN THIS.
9:28:51PM IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO THIS.
9:28:53PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
9:28:54PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
9:28:55PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I WILL ECHO MY SUPPORT FOR THIS PROJECT.
9:29:02PM WE HEAR A LOT ON THIS COUNCIL OF NEW PROJECTS, OF PROJECTS
9:29:06PM THAT WANT TO COME, AND THEY WANT TO GET THE FEEL OF TAMPA
9:29:10PM AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM MENTIONS YBOR.
9:29:14PM EVERYONE MENTIONS THE HISTORY OF YBOR, BRINGING THE HISTORY
9:29:17PM OF TAMPA.
9:29:18PM AND THE HISTORY OF TAMPA REALLY MEANS THE HISTORY OF YBOR.
9:29:21PM YBOR IS WHERE EVERYTHING STARTED AND WE ARE SO LUCKY TO
9:29:26PM STILL HAVE WHAT REMAINS IN YBOR.
9:29:29PM AND I KNOW THE PARTNERS IN THIS PROJECT AREN'T JUST TRYING
9:29:32PM TO HELP PRESERVE WHAT WE HAVE, BUT HAVE DELICATELY WORKED
9:29:37PM WITH ALL THE PARTNERS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT CONNECTS AND FITS
9:29:42PM WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
9:29:43PM IT'S A REALLY TALL UNDERTAKING BECAUSE YOU HEAR EVERYONE IN
9:29:47PM THIS ROOM AND THEIR STORIES AND HISTORY AND RECOLLECTIONS OF
9:29:53PM YBOR, AND BEING THE ONE TO TRY TO DO IT IS REALLY BRAVE.
9:29:58PM BUT I THINK WITH THE PARTNERSHIP THAT YOU HAVE AND THE
9:30:01PM VISION AND WHAT WE'RE SEEING, VERY EXCITED TO SEE WHAT COMES
9:30:06PM OF THIS.
9:30:07PM AND I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DIDN'T SAY THAT MY FAVORITE THING
9:30:10PM ABOUT HOW YOU PRESENTED THIS PROJECT WAS HOW I NEVER SAW A
9:30:15PM CAR IN IT.
9:30:16PM I JUST THINK THAT'S REALLY WONDERFUL AND THE FACT THAT WE'RE
9:30:19PM REALLY TRYING TO CONNECT THOSE DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE CITY
9:30:24PM AND HOW WE CAN DO THAT IN A WAY THAT DOESN'T REQUIRE A CAR
9:30:29PM BECAUSE TO GET TO DOWNTOWN FROM YBOR DOESN'T REALLY TAKE
9:30:32PM THAT LONG.
9:30:34PM ACTUALLY, I HAVE FOUND THAT IT TAKES MUCH LONGER IN A CAR
9:30:37PM FROM HERE TO GET TO YBOR THAN IT DOES JUST TO HOP ON THE
9:30:41PM STREETCAR.
9:30:42PM SO THAT IS WHAT I GENERALLY DO WHEN I NEED TO GO DOWN TO
9:30:45PM YBOR DURING THE DAY.
9:30:47PM I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR THAT.
9:30:48PM I APPRECIATE AND LOOK FORWARD TO HOW THIS PROJECT DEVELOPS.
9:31:00PM >>JOSEPH CITRO: I CAN'T ADD TO THAT.
9:31:01PM SO THE ONLY THING I'M GOING TO SAY IS, VIVA YBOR.
9:31:04PM WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN
9:31:07PM MANISCALCO, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.

9:35:38PM REZ 21-134.
9:35:41PM FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3915 WEST EUCLID AVENUE.
9:35:45PM THE APPLICANT IS BEING REPRESENTED BY JIM PORTER.
9:35:48PM THE REQUEST IS TO REZONE THE PROPERTY FROM RS 60 RESIDENTIAL
9:35:52PM SINGLE-FAMILY TO PD PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AND IT IS FOR
9:35:55PM RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED AND THE CREATION OF TWO
9:35:59PM LOTS.
9:35:59PM I'LL TURN IT OVER TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND I'LL COME
9:36:03PM BACK AND GIVE MY REPORT AFTER.
9:36:05PM THANK YOU.
9:36:20PM >> SEE THE PROJECTOR?
9:36:21PM >> NO.
9:36:21PM NOW WE CAN.
9:36:26PM >> DAN COLLINS WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
9:36:28PM I'VE BEEN SWORN IN.
9:36:29PM NEXT CASE IN THE SOUTH TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT, MORE
9:36:31PM SPECIFICALLY THE VIRGINIA PARK NEIGHBORHOOD.
9:36:35PM CIRCLE PARK IS THE CLOSEST PUBLIC RECREATION FACILITY
9:36:37PM LOCATED A QUARTER MILE TO THE NORTHEAST OF THE SITE.
9:36:40PM CLOSEST TRANSIT SITE IS 60 FEET WEST OF THE SITE AT THE
9:36:43PM INTERSECTION OF WEST EUCLID AVENUE AND SOUTH GRADY AVENUE.
9:36:46PM SUBJECT SITE IS WITHIN A LEVEL A EVACUATION ZONE.
9:36:49PM HERE'S IS AN AERIAL MAP OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND SURROUNDING
9:36:56PM PROPERTY.
9:36:56PM THE SUBJECT SITE IS JUST EAST OF THE INTERSECTION OF WEST
9:36:59PM EUCLID AND SOUTH GRADY AVENUE.
9:37:00PM THE SURROUNDING AREA IS PREDOMINANTLY RESIDENTIAL IN
9:37:03PM CHARACTER WITH THE MAJORITY OF THE RESIDENTS BEING
9:37:07PM SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED.
9:37:09PM HERE IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
9:37:14PM THE SUBJECT SITE IS WITHIN THE RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION.
9:37:21PM IT'S SURROUNDED BY THE RESIDENTIAL 10 ON ALL SIDES.
9:37:24PM PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND
9:37:25PM FOUND NO ADVERSE IMPACTS TO THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD.
9:37:28PM THIS PORTION OF WEST EUCLID AVENUE HAS AN EXISTING DENSITY
9:37:29PM OF 5.38 UNITS PER ACRE.
9:37:32PM THE PD PROPOSES 6.45 UNITS PER ACRE WHICH IS COMPARABLE TO
9:37:36PM THE EXISTING BLOCK DENSITY.
9:37:38PM THE EXISTING BLOCK DENSITY ON THIS PORTION OF WEST EUCLID
9:37:42PM AVENUE IS 53% OF THE DENSITY ANTICIPATED UNDER THE R 10
9:37:46PM DESIGNATION WHICH INDICATES THAT THE BLOCK IS POTENTIALLY OR
9:37:51PM THE SITE IS POTENTIALLY UNDERUTILIZED.
9:37:54PM THE PD REZONING WILL ALLOW FOR BETTER UTILIZATION OF THE
9:37:57PM LAND THAT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DENSITY ANTICIPATED UNDER
9:38:00PM THE R-10 DESIGNATION.
9:38:02PM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RECOGNIZES THE IMPORTANCE OF
9:38:04PM SINGLE-FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS AND SEEKS TO PROMOTE COMPATIBLE
9:38:07PM REDEVELOPMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS TO ENSURE ECONOMIC HEALTH AND
9:38:11PM ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF LAND IS PLANNED FOR THE CITY'S GROWING
9:38:14PM POPULATION.
9:38:14PM THE REZONING WILL PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFILL DEVELOPMENT ON
9:38:18PM UNDERUTILIZED AREA WITHIN THE SOUTH TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT.
9:38:21PM BASED ON THOSE CONSIDERATIONS THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF
9:38:24PM FINDS THE REQUEST CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF TAMPA
9:38:26PM COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
9:38:27PM THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
9:38:29PM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
9:38:30PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE GENTLEMAN?
9:38:33PM NO.
9:38:33PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
9:38:38PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: LaCHONE DOCK, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
9:38:41PM THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU IS TO ALLOW THE CREATION OF TWO LOTS
9:38:46PM WITH RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED USES.
9:38:50PM THE SITE CONTAINS 13,860 SQUARE FEET.
9:38:54PM THE SUBJECT SITE CONSISTS OF LOTS 74 AND 75 OF BELMAR
9:38:59PM REVISED UNIT NUMBER 6 SUBDIVISION, WHICH WAS PLATTED IN
9:39:04PM 1989.
9:39:06PM LOT 74 WAS PLATTED MEASURING 55 FEET IN WIDTH AND 120 FEET
9:39:10PM IN DEPTH.
9:39:11PM LOT 75 WAS PLATTED WITH 60 FEET IN WIDTH AND 120 FEET IN
9:39:17PM DEPTH.
9:39:18PM THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO SPLIT THE LOT TO CREATE THE
9:39:21PM TWO LOTS AS ORIGINALLY PLATTED.
9:39:27PM THIS IS THE AERIAL OF THE SITE.
9:39:29PM THIS IS THE SITE THAT'S OUTLINED IN RED.
9:39:32PM THIS IS EUCLID AVENUE ON THE MAP.
9:39:34PM THIS IS SOUTH DALE MABRY.
9:39:36PM THIS IS KENSINGTON AVENUE.
9:39:38PM SO THIS IS THE PROPERTY LOCATED HERE, AND YOU CAN SEE --
9:39:43PM I'LL SHOW YOU IN THE ANALYSIS MAP WHAT WAS CONSIDERED AS
9:39:46PM PART OF THE CONFORMING MAP AND CONSIDERED AS PART OF THE
9:39:49PM ANALYSIS WHICH WAS COMPLETED.
9:39:51PM YOU CAN SEE THE SINGLE-FAMILY ZONE THAT EXISTS IS
9:39:56PM PREDOMINANT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
9:39:57PM AS YOU GET TO DALE MABRY YOU HAVE MORE OF THE COMMERCIAL
9:40:00PM USES AND COMMERCIAL ZONES WITH SOME OF THE PDs LOCATED
9:40:04PM ALONG THAT CORRIDOR.
9:40:06PM THIS IS THE CONFORMING MAP WHICH WAS CREATED.
9:40:11PM I CAN GIVE YOU THE ANALYSIS BUT I JUST WANTED TO EXPLAIN FOR
9:40:15PM A MOMENT.
9:40:16PM THIS IS THE PROPERTY, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY UNDER THE
9:40:18PM REQUEST, WHICH HAS THE PATTERN AND IT'S OUTLINED IN BLACK.
9:40:24PM THIS IS EUCLID AVENUE.
9:40:26PM THIS IS SOUTH DALE MABRY.
9:40:27PM THIS IS KENSINGTON, EL PRADO.
9:40:30PM SO WHAT WE DID IS TOOK A LOOK AT THE BLOCKS AND YOU CAN SEE
9:40:36PM WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS QUADRANT, I'M JUST GOING TO COVER THIS
9:40:39PM UP JUST TO BE ABLE TO SHOW THE TWO QUADRANTS AND THE TWO
9:40:43PM SUBDIVISIONS WHICH WERE CONSIDERED FOR THE ANALYSIS.
9:40:47PM THIS IS ONE QUADRANT.
9:40:50PM YOU CAN SEE THE PATTERN.
9:40:51PM THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE.
9:40:54PM THE LOTS THAT EXIST THERE, THE PATTERN OF DEVELOPMENT HERE
9:40:57PM AND THE BLOCK AND THEN THIS IS YOUR OTHER QUADRANT HERE.
9:41:00PM BOTH OF THOSE AREAS WERE INCLUDED WITHIN THE ANALYSIS, WHICH
9:41:05PM I WILL SHOW YOU, BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE BLOCK, YOU CAN SEE
9:41:10PM THAT THE YELLOW LOT, THE LOTS THAT ARE IDENTIFIED IN YELLOW
9:41:13PM HAVE LOT WIDTH BETWEEN 65 TO 69 FEET.
9:41:17PM THE PINK HAS THE LOT WIDTH OF 75 TO 79.
9:41:21PM YOUR BLUE HAS YOUR LOT WIDTH OF 50 TO 54 FEET IN WIDTH.
9:41:28PM AND YOUR RED IS YOUR 80 TO 99.
9:41:31PM BUT JUST TO SHOW YOU, SO THIS ANALYSIS DID NOT CROSS EUCLID.
9:41:37PM SOUTH OF EUCLID IS A DIFFERENT BLOCK PATTERN, AND I'LL SHOW
9:41:41PM YOU ON THE MAP, RUN THE ANALYSIS JUST TO SHOW YOU THAT AREA.
9:41:46PM SOUTH OF EUCLID WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE ANALYSIS, BUT YOU
9:41:50PM CAN SEE THE BLOCK PATTERN THAT EXISTS.
9:41:52PM ALL OF THE LOTS AS YOU SEE RUNNING ALONG EUCLID ARE
9:41:55PM IDENTIFIED IN THE RED SO THEY HAVE THE LARGER LOT WIDTH.
9:42:00PM EVERYTHING YELLOW BELOW IS 65 TO 69.
9:42:03PM SO I'M GOING TO PUT BACK UP THE MAP THAT WAS USED IN THE
9:42:07PM ANALYSIS AND GO OVER THE ANALYSIS WITH YOU.
9:42:09PM SO WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT ON PAGE 4 OF THE STAFF REPORT, IT
9:42:15PM CONTAINS THE ANALYSIS.
9:42:18PM WHICH I'LL REVIEW IN PART REGARDING THE BLOCK ITSELF.
9:42:21PM IN RELATION TO REVIEWING THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN,
9:42:24PM THE SUBJECT BLOCK ON THE NORTH SIDE OF EUCLID AVENUE FROM
9:42:27PM SOUTH GRADY AVENUE TO WEST TAMPA CIRCLE CONTAINS FOUR TOTAL
9:42:32PM ZONING LOTS, INCLUDING THE SUBJECT SITE.
9:42:35PM SO ALL FOUR OR HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE LOT DEVELOPED WITH A
9:42:39PM WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR GREATER.
9:42:41PM BLOCK FACE ON THE NORTH SIDE OF WEST EUCLID FROM EAST CLARK
9:42:44PM AVENUE TO SOUTH GRADY AVENUE CONTAINS HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE
9:42:50PM LOTS HAVING DEVELOPED WITH A LOT WIDTH GREATER THAN 60 FEET.
9:42:54PM BLOCK FACE OF SOUTH GRADY FROM WEST KENSINGTON AVENUE TO
9:42:59PM WEST EUCLID AVENUE CONTAINS 11 TOTAL ZONING LOTS, 9 OR 82%
9:43:04PM OF THE LOTS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR
9:43:07PM GREATER.
9:43:08PM TWO OR 18% HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 59.99 OR
9:43:13PM LESS.
9:43:13PM SO PURSUANT TO THE ANALYSIS, THE MAJORITY OF THE LOTS WITHIN
9:43:16PM THE STUDY AREA HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A LOT WIDTH
9:43:20PM CONSISTENT WITH RS 60 ZONING.
9:43:23PM THEREFORE, STAFF FINDS THE REESTABLISHMENT OF THE PLATTED
9:43:27PM LOTS TO BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT
9:43:29PM PATTERN OF THE BLOCK AS WELL AS THE SURROUNDING AREA.
9:43:32PM I HAVE THE SITE PLAN TO SHOW YOU THAT WAS SUBMITTED.
9:43:37PM THIS IS EUCLID AVENUE AT THE END OF THE PICTURE AND THEN
9:43:44PM THIS WOULD BE THE CREATION OF THE LOT.
9:43:46PM THIS IS THE LOT LINE AND THESE ARE THE TWO RESIDENCES
9:43:49PM PROPOSED.
9:43:50PM HERE ARE PICTURES OF THE SITE.
9:43:57PM THIS IS THE SITE -- THIS IS EAST OF THE SITE.
9:44:04PM SO WE'RE APPROACHING TAMPA CIRCLE HEADING EAST.
9:44:07PM THIS IS THE FRONT VIEW OF THIS STRUCTURE WHICH IS EAST OF
9:44:11PM THE SITE ON TAMPA CIRCLE.
9:44:16PM CIRCLE WEST.
9:44:23PM CIRCLE AROUND AND COME WEST.
9:44:25PM THAT'S THE VIEW FROM THE WEST SIDE, THE SINGLE-FAMILY
9:44:29PM RESIDENTIAL TO THE WEST.
9:44:30PM THIS IS SOUTH ACROSS EUCLID AND THIS IS EAST OF THE SITE.
9:44:35PM SO THE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE REVIEWED THE REQUEST.
9:44:41PM FOUND THE REQUEST INCONSISTENT AND THIS IS BASED UPON THE
9:44:45PM ANALYSIS CONDUCTED BY DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
9:44:47PM ALSO, COUNCIL, THERE ARE MODIFICATIONS REQUIRED TO THE SITE
9:44:51PM PLAN BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING SHOULD COUNCIL APPROVE
9:44:55PM THE REQUEST.
9:44:56PM THIS CONCLUDES STAFF PRESENTATION.
9:44:57PM I'M AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
9:44:59PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS?
9:45:00PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
9:45:02PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: OKAY.
9:45:03PM THANK YOU.
9:45:04PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, SIR.
9:45:05PM >> THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
9:45:06PM JIM PORTER WITH AKERMAN, 401 EAST JACKSON STREET HERE
9:45:10PM REPRESENTING THE APPLICANT TONIGHT.
9:45:11PM THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU, AS STAFF INDICATED, IS TO RESTORE
9:45:14PM THE ORIGINAL PLATTING WHICH I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU ON THE
9:45:17PM RECORD.
9:45:17PM THIS IS FROM 1989.
9:45:19PM YOU CAN SEE THIS IS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, AND IT WAS
9:45:22PM ORIGINALLY PLATTED AS TWO LOTS, ONE WITH THE WIDTH OF 55
9:45:25PM FEET AND ONE WITH 60, BUT IT WAS DEVELOPED AS A SINGLE LOT.
9:45:29PM SO THE GOAL TONIGHT IS TO RESTORE THIS BACK TO THE ORIGINAL
9:45:32PM PLAT.
9:45:32PM WE ORIGINALLY TRIED TO DO THIS ADMINISTRATIVELY BECAUSE
9:45:37PM THERE'S PLENTY OF ROOM AS FAR AS THE LOT ITSELF.
9:45:40PM AS STAFF SAID, THE LOT ITSELF IS 13,860 FEET.
9:45:44PM THE UNDERLYING ZONING CATEGORY REQUIRES A LOT SIZE OF 6,000
9:45:50PM SQUARE FEET.
9:45:51PM WE'RE EASILY ABLE TO CREATE TWO LOTS OF THE SIZE THAT'S
9:45:55PM CONFORMING WITH THE ZONING.
9:45:58PM ONE LOT WOULD BE 6623 FEET AND THE OTHER LOT WOULD BE 7250
9:46:03PM FEET.
9:46:03PM THERE ARE TWO ELEMENTS, TWO MAIN ELEMENTS WHEN YOU CONSIDER
9:46:06PM A LOT, THE LOT SIZE AND STREET FRONTAGE.
9:46:09PM SO THIS IS THE ISSUE HERE.
9:46:11PM ONE OF OUR SITES COULD MEET THE STREET FRONTAGE AT 60 FEET.
9:46:14PM THE OTHER ONE IS OFF BY FIVE FEET.
9:46:17PM WE'RE REALLY TALKING A DIFFERENCE OF FIVE FEET.
9:46:19PM HAD WE HAD SUFFICIENT STREET COVERAGE, THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN
9:46:23PM ADMINISTRATIVE APPROVAL AND NOT BEFORE COUNCIL.
9:46:25PM THE SIZE OF FIVE FEET IS NOT SIGNIFICANT AND IT REALLY WOULD
9:46:29PM SORT OF SERVE AS THE PLANNING COMMISSION STATED ON THE
9:46:32PM RECORD TO UTILIZE OR TO SORT OF TAKE ADVANTAGE OF AN
9:46:36PM UNDERUTILIZED PARCEL THAT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE
9:46:39PM COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
9:46:39PM I HAD TWO CALLS FROM NEIGHBORS IN THE IMMEDIATE
9:46:42PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
9:46:42PM THEY WERE BOTH IN SUPPORT OF THIS.
9:46:44PM I BELIEVE YOU HAVE A LETTER IN THE RECORD ALSO OF SOMEONE
9:46:47PM WHO DOES NOT OBJECT.
9:46:49PM THE PATTERN IS I THINK SORT OF A MIXED PATTERN.
9:46:53PM YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE.
9:46:55PM THE LOT NOW IS LARGE.
9:46:56PM THE ONES ON EITHER SIDE ARE EACH 60.
9:46:59PM ONE WOULD BE 55, WHICH IS THE BLUE AND ONE WOULD BE LIKE
9:47:02PM THIS.
9:47:03PM IT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE PATTERN COMPATIBLE WITH THE
9:47:06PM NEIGHBORHOOD, AND I THINK WOULD SERVE A GOOD USE FOR THE
9:47:10PM PROPERTY.
9:47:10PM AGAIN, THERE'S PLENTY OF LOT SIZE.
9:47:14PM JUST NOT ENOUGH STREET FRONTAGE.
9:47:18PM HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
9:47:20PM THAT'S OUR REQUEST FOR TONIGHT.
9:47:21PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS?
9:47:23PM THANK YOU, SIR.
9:47:24PM ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?
9:47:26PM >>THE CLERK: THERE ARE NO SPEAKERS FOR THIS ITEM.
9:47:29PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCILMAN GUDES.
9:47:31PM SECONDED FROM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
9:47:33PM ALL IN FAVOR?
9:47:34PM AYE.
9:47:35PM COUNCILMAN GUDES, WOULD YOU LIKE TO READ ITEM NUMBER 5.

9:54:29PM IF YOU CAN PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND TO BE SWORN IN.
9:54:33PM DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THAT YOU WILL TELL THE TRUTH, THE
9:54:36PM WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH?
9:54:38PM >> I DO.
9:54:38PM >>THE CLERK: THANK YOU.
9:54:40PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: GO AHEAD, SIR.
9:54:42PM >> IS IT POSSIBLE TO SHARE MY SCREEN?
9:54:46PM I'M SETTING IT UP NOW.
9:55:03PM CAN YOU ALL SEE MY SCREEN NOW?
9:55:18PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NOT YET.
9:55:20PM NOW WE CAN.
9:55:32PM GO AHEAD, SIR, IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT BIGGER.
9:55:35PM >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
9:55:35PM SORRY FOR THE DELAY.
9:55:36PM THIS IS A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REZONING FOR 3604 WEST AZEELE
9:55:41PM STREET.
9:55:41PM IT HAS BEEN NOTED THAT TRANSPORTATION IS THE ONLY
9:55:44PM INCONSISTENCY WITH THE PLAN.
9:55:46PM A GENERAL OVERLAY OF THE SITE IS .33 ACRES.
9:55:50PM IT'S ON THE SOUTHWEST CORRIDOR OF AZEELE AND HIMES.
9:55:53PM WE'VE INCLUDED AN AERIAL FROM GOOGLE EARTH WHICH SHOWS THE
9:55:57PM MIXED USE OF THE AREA GOING TO THE CURRENT USES.
9:56:01PM THE SUBJECT PARCEL IS ESSENTIALLY ON AN ISLAND.
9:56:04PM THE SURROUNDING PARCELS ARE PDs, EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT OF
9:56:09PM THE PARCEL ON AZEELE STREET.
9:56:11PM BEHIND IT, CATTY-CORNER WOULD BE ANOTHER PD, DIRECTLY
9:56:16PM FORWARD TO THE RIGHT ANOTHER PD.
9:56:18PM WE'VE ALSO EXPANDED OUR VIEW A LITTLE BIT.
9:56:21PM THIS IS THE GENERAL OVERLAY OF THE NEIGHBORING MEDICAL AND
9:56:25PM VETERINARIAN LOCATIONS ON THIS AREA OF AZEELE.
9:56:30PM YOU'LL SEE GOING TOWARDS DALE MABRY ALL THE WAY DOWN TOWARDS
9:56:38PM -- TAMPA PLASTIC SURGERY CENTER, PEDIATRIC HEALTH CARE
9:56:42PM ALLIANCE, ALL USING THAT AZEELE STREET CORRIDOR WHICH IS THE
9:56:47PM TRANSITION AREA.
9:56:49PM TRANSITIONING TO THE COMMERCIAL AND MEDICAL USE AS SHOWN BY
9:56:52PM THIS SLIDE.
9:56:54PM AS WE GO FORWARD.
9:56:56PM THIS IS OUR PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT.
9:56:58PM THIS IS THE PLASTIC SURGERY CENTER.
9:57:00PM DR. TRACY IS PRESENT IN THE AUDIENCE AS WELL AS HER SON
9:57:04PM EDWARD.
9:57:05PM THEY HAVE BEEN PATIENTLY WAITING TO SEE THIS DREAM COME TO
9:57:08PM FRUITION FOR A VERY LONG TIME.
9:57:10PM WHAT THEY ARE PROPOSING IS A WOMAN-OWNED MEDICAL AND OFFICE
9:57:13PM BUILDING.
9:57:13PM WE'RE PROPOSING 3868 SQUARE FEET.
9:57:16PM PURSUANT TO THE CODE, THEY ARE ALLOWED TO GO AS FAR UP AS
9:57:20PM 7,290 SQUARE FEET.
9:57:22PM IN THIS DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL, WE'RE PLANNING ON TWO
9:57:24PM OPERATING ROOMS WITH THREE CONSULTATION ROOMS.
9:57:27PM THAT'S IMPORTANT BECAUSE AS WE ADDRESS THE INCONSISTENCIES
9:57:32PM BETWEEN -- THE COUNCIL WILL NOTE THAT ONLY TRANSPORTATION
9:57:33PM HAS FOUND ANY INCONSISTENCY.
9:57:37PM THE SITE PLAN MODIFICATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN SPOKEN ABOUT,
9:57:39PM THERE IS NO ISSUE AS FAR AS WE'RE CONCERNED.
9:57:44PM WE WORKED TO MAKE THE REVISIONS TO THE SITE PLAN TO BE
9:57:46PM CONSISTENT AT SECOND READING.
9:57:47PM THE ONLY ONE WHERE WE'RE ASKING FOR A WAIVER -- WE'RE ASKING
9:57:50PM FOR TWO WAIVERS.
9:57:51PM THE FIRST WAIVER WE'RE REQUESTING TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED
9:57:55PM 15-FOOT BUFFER AND THE 6-FOOT MASONRY WALL REQUIREMENT TO A
9:57:58PM 3-FOOT BUFFER ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
9:58:01PM NOW, I TRIED TO MAKE THIS AS LARGE AS I CAN.
9:58:04PM IT'S INCLUDED IN OUR APPLICATION.
9:58:06PM THE COUNCIL WILL NOTE THE STORMWATER POND INCLUDED IN THE
9:58:10PM SITE OVERLAY.
9:58:11PM WHEN YOU ZOOM INTO IT, THAT'S WHERE THE THREE FOOT LANDSCAPE
9:58:15PM BUFFER IS.
9:58:16PM ANY LESS OF A BUFFER WOULD DRAMATICALLY IMPACT THAT
9:58:19PM STORMWATER POND.
9:58:20PM LOOKING TO THE ADJACENT PARCEL, 3608 AZEELE, THE COUNCIL
9:58:25PM WILL NOTE I BELIEVE 14-INCH CAMPHOR OAK WE DESIGNATED THE
9:58:31PM BOUNDARY REQUIRED FOR THIS TREE.
9:58:33PM THREE FOOT BUFFER ALLOWS ADJACENT PARCEL HOLDER TO
9:58:38PM ESSENTIALLY MEET THEIR REQUIREMENTS FOR THE TREE.
9:58:43PM SINCE WE'RE ON THE TOPIC OF TREES, THERE IS AN ADDITIONAL
9:58:45PM CONCERN THAT'S BEEN NOTED IN THE REPORT, A THREE INCH OAK ON
9:58:50PM AN ADJACENT PARCEL.
9:58:52PM AT THIS JUNCTURE IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S SOME OVERLAP BASED ON
9:58:55PM THE SITE PLAN.
9:58:56PM WE'RE NOT SURE WHETHER IT WOULD BE AFFECTED BY ANY OF THE
9:58:59PM SITE PLANS.
9:59:00PM DESPITE THAT, WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO THAT ADJACENT PARCEL
9:59:03PM OWNER.
9:59:03PM IT INDICATES THEY ARE WILLING TO COOPERATE WITH THE REMOVAL
9:59:07PM BY SIGNING THE AFFIDAVIT THAT NATURAL RESOURCES HAS
9:59:10PM REQUESTED IN THE EVENT IT DOES NEED TO BE REMOVED.
9:59:13PM OBVIOUSLY, THAT AFFIDAVIT WOULD HAVE TO BE PROVIDED PRIOR TO
9:59:17PM PERMITTING, WHICH WE BELIEVE WE CAN COMPLY WITH.
9:59:20PM THE BIGGEST ISSUE AND THE BIGGEST HURDLE THAT IS NOTED IN
9:59:24PM THE STAFF REPORT IS THE PARKING WAIVER.
9:59:27PM NOW, THE SITE PLAN ACTUALLY SHOWS TWO DIFFERENT REQUIREMENTS
9:59:32PM FOR THE PARKING.
9:59:33PM ONE IS 23 PARKING SPACES.
9:59:35PM THE OTHER IS 21.
9:59:37PM AND THAT'S CALCULATED USING TWO WAYS.
9:59:40PM ONE, THIS PARCEL CAN BE USED FOR 3,000 FEET OF MEDICAL
9:59:44PM BUILDING WITH 868 FEET BEING DESIGNATED TO OFFICE SPACE.
9:59:48PM THAT ESSENTIALLY GETS US TO OUR 21 REQUIRED PARKING SPACES.
9:59:53PM IF THE FULL SITE PLAN IS USED AS MEDICAL, THAT'S WHERE THE
9:59:56PM 23 PARKING SPACES WOULD COME INTO DEBATE.
10:00:01PM THIS WAIVER REQUEST, THOUGH, IT IS FOR A UNIQUE STRUCTURE.
10:00:04PM WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH A MEDICAL OFFICE AND SURGERY CENTER.
10:00:08PM IT'S A PLASTIC SURGERY CENTER WHERE THE PARCEL OWNER IS THE
10:00:11PM ACTUAL OCCUPANT OF THE BUILDING.
10:00:14PM BOOKING AND SCHEDULING APPOINTMENTS AND CONSULTATIONS FOR
10:00:17PM PLASTIC SURGERY PROCEDURES WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT THEIR
10:00:21PM PARKING CAN HANDLE.
10:00:22PM GENERALLY WHEN THIS IS DONE, FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENTS AND
10:00:25PM INITIAL CONSULTATIONS ARE ALL DONE VIRTUALLY ALLEVIATING A
10:00:29PM NUMBER OF THE ISSUES THAT SOMETHING LIKE AN URGENT CARE
10:00:32PM WOULD RUN INTO WITH PARKING.
10:00:35PM THIS IS APPOINTMENTS AND PROCEDURES SCHEDULED WELL IN
10:00:38PM ADVANCE OF WHEN FOLKS WOULD BE COMING.
10:00:40PM WHEN WE GO FURTHER, WE'VE ACTUALLY STUDIED THE DATA FOR
10:00:45PM MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING AND BASED ON THE PARKING GENERATION,
10:00:50PM THIS IS THE FIFTH EDITION, IT SHOWS THAT A USE AT LEAST AT
10:00:53PM THIS JUNCTURE, THE DATA IS CHANGING, 3.23 SPACES PER 1,000
10:00:59PM SQUARE FEET OF MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING.
10:01:02PM WE WILL NEED EVEN LESS THAN THAT AS WE'VE INDICATED ON OUR
10:01:06PM SLIDE.
10:01:07PM THERE'S GOING TO BE ON A FULL SURGERY DAY, A STAFF OF SEVEN
10:01:11PM THAT FILLS UP SEVEN PARKING SPOTS.
10:01:13PM TWO OPERATING ROOMS.
10:01:15PM AT MOST YOU HAVE TWO FOLKS WHO ARE COMING TO GET SURGERY
10:01:18PM THAT DAY.
10:01:20PM GENERALLY THOSE PATIENTS ARE DROPPED OFF.
10:01:22PM THEY ARE NOT DRIVING HOME AFTER THEY'VE BEEN PLACED UNDER
10:01:25PM ANESTHESIA.
10:01:27PM SO THE PARKING SPOTS WOULD NOT BE IN USE AND STILL AVAILABLE
10:01:30PM TO THE PUBLIC AT-LARGE.
10:01:31PM AGAIN, BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE FOOTPRINT, THE UNIQUE WAY THIS
10:01:36PM BUSINESS IS OPERATED, THIS SCHEDULING IS DYNAMIC.
10:01:39PM THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE WALK-IN FOR A PLASTIC SURGERY
10:01:43PM CENTER.
10:01:44PM YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE THINGS SCHEDULED, MINDFUL OF THE
10:01:46PM PARKING, NOT ALLOWING OVERFLOW, BECAUSE -- CAN'T BE IN MORE
10:01:52PM THAN ONE SPOT.
10:01:52PM GOING FURTHER, WHEN WE LOOK AT THE WAIVER, IT'S JUSTIFIED
10:01:55PM AGAIN BY THE OPERATION OF THE BUSINESS BECAUSE THEY WILL BE
10:01:59PM MINDFUL OF.
10:02:01PM WITH THAT MUCH PARKING, THERE WAS A CONCERN, I BELIEVE
10:02:04PM TRANSPORTATION VOICED IT, DEALING WITH AN OVERFLOW OF
10:02:07PM PARKING ONTO AZEELE STREET.
10:02:09PM GIVEN THE FOOTPRINT THAT WILL BE USED AND THE WAY SCHEDULING
10:02:12PM WILL EXIST, IT SHOULD BE A NONISSUE.
10:02:15PM THE PARKING LOT SHOULD NEVER BE THAT FULL WHEN THEY ARE
10:02:18PM ACTUALLY SCHEDULING THESE OPERATIONS AND PROCEDURES.
10:02:21PM BASED ON THAT, I'LL RESERVE THE REST OF MY TIME IF I MAY.
10:02:27PM I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
10:02:28PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE GENTLEMAN?
10:02:30PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
10:02:32PM DO WE HAVE ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK ON
10:02:34PM THIS ITEM, ITEM NUMBER 9?

10:03:55PM FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3607, 3708 AND 3809 NORTH
10:04:02PM ARMENIA AVENUE.
10:04:03PM THE APPLICANT IS REPRESENTED BY DAVE MECHANIK.
10:04:05PM THE REQUEST IS TO REZONE THE PROPERTY FROM PD AND CI
10:04:09PM COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE TO PD TO ALLOW FOR ANIMAL SHELTER,
10:04:13PM BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL OFFICE, VETERINARY OFFICE AND
10:04:16PM COMMERCIAL OFF-STREET PARKING USES.
10:04:18PM I'LL TURN IT OVER TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THEN I'LL
10:04:20PM COME BACK AND GIVE MY REPORT.
10:04:21PM THANK YOU.
10:04:33PM >> DANNY COLLINS WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
10:04:35PM OUR LAST CASE IS IN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT.
10:04:38PM MORE SPECIFICALLY IT'S ON THE EASTERN EDGE OF THE
10:04:40PM MacFARLANE PARK NEIGHBORHOOD.
10:04:47PM LOCATED APPROXIMATELY HALF MILE SOUTHWEST OF THE SUBJECT
10:04:50PM SITE, PARK.
10:04:51PM NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE IS TRANSIT CORRIDOR.
10:04:56PM TRANSIT SERVICE ALONG THIS PORTION OF ARMENIA AVENUE BY HART
10:05:00PM ROUTE 7, WEST TAMPA TRANSIT CENTER AND DOWNTOWN TAMPA.
10:05:05PM SUBJECT SITE IS NOT LOCATED WITHIN AN EVACUATION ZONE.
10:05:08PM HERE'S AN AERIAL SITE OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND THE
10:05:14PM SURROUNDING PROPERTIES.
10:05:15PM YOU'LL SEE THE PD CONTAINS MULTIPLE FOLIOS ALONG BOTH THE
10:05:19PM EASTERN AND WESTERN SIDE OF NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE.
10:05:23PM THIS PORTION OF ARMENIA IS PREDOMINANTLY NONRESIDENTIAL IN
10:05:27PM CHARACTER.
10:05:28PM THERE IS SEVERAL COMMERCIAL USES LOCATED ALONG ARMENIA
10:05:33PM AVENUE.
10:05:34PM AS YOU MOVE EAST -- SORRY, AS YOU MOVE WEST FROM ARMENIA,
10:05:38PM YOU GET INTO A SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED NEIGHBORHOOD.
10:05:40PM HERE IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
10:05:45PM A MAJORITY OF THE PD IS WITHIN THE CC 35 DESIGNATION.
10:05:49PM AND THEN THIS WESTERN FOLIO IS WITHIN THE R-10 DESIGNATION.
10:05:55PM THE R-10 IS BEING UTILIZED AND WAS APPROVED THROUGH A
10:05:59PM PREVIOUS PARK D FOR PARKING.
10:06:04PM -- PD FOR PARKING.
10:06:05PM REMAINDER IS GOING TO BE USED BY THE HUMANE SOCIETY.
10:06:09PM THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION.
10:06:15PM FOUND THE REQUEST COMPARABLE AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE
10:06:17PM SURROUNDING AREA.
10:06:18PM MAJORITY OF THE PARCELS ALONG THE SEGMENT ARE UTILIZED FOR
10:06:22PM LIKE COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL USES WITH SOME MULTIFAMILY 2
10:06:27PM RESIDENTIAL USES.
10:06:28PM SINCE THE SUBJECT SITE IS NOT ADJACENT TO ANY RESIDENTIALLY
10:06:31PM ZONED PARCELS, THE REQUEST WILL NOT ADVERSELY IMPACT THE
10:06:35PM SURROUNDING RESIDENTIAL USES.
10:06:37PM THE PORTIONS OF THE SITE WITHIN THE CC 35 DESIGNATION ARE
10:06:40PM WITHIN A MIXED USE CORRIDOR.
10:06:43PM TYPICALLY WITHIN MIXED USE DISTRICT MAIN ENTRANCES TO
10:06:45PM OFFICES ARE TO BE ORIENTED TOWARD THE ADJACENT PUBLIC
10:06:49PM RIGHT-OF-WAY TO ADDRESS THE MIXED USE CORRIDOR POLICIES
10:06:52PM PROVIDED A PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION WHICH CONNECTS THE BUILDING
10:06:55PM ENTRANCE TO THE SIDEWALK ALONG NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE AND
10:06:59PM NORTH CIMINO AVENUE.
10:07:02PM ADDITIONALLY, SIDEWALKS PROVIDED ALONG ALL ADJACENT PUBLIC
10:07:05PM RIGHTS-OF-WAY.
10:07:06PM SIDEWALKS AND PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIONS WILL SUPPORT THE USE OF
10:07:09PM TRANSIT ALONG NORTH ARMENIA AVENUE.
10:07:14PM SIDEWALKS INTERCONNECTED TO ADJACENT PARCELS.
10:07:16PM PLANNING COMMISSION HAS DETERMINED THAT THE APPLICANT HAS
10:07:18PM ADDRESSED THE MIXED USE CORRIDOR POLICY TO THE BEST OF THEIR
10:07:22PM ABILITY.
10:07:22PM BASED ON THESE CONSIDERATIONS, THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF
10:07:25PM FINDS THE REQUEST CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND
10:07:27PM POLICIES OF THE IMAGINE 2040 CITY OF TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE
10:07:30PM PLAN.
10:07:31PM THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
10:07:33PM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
10:07:34PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE GENTLEMAN?
10:07:36PM NO.
10:07:40PM >>LaCHONE DOCK: LaCHONE DOCK, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
10:07:43PM COUNCIL, THIS ITEM CONTAINS THE PROJECT WITHIN THIS REZONING
10:07:47PM REQUEST, CONTAINS 3.96 ACRES.
10:07:50PM THREE PARCELS IDENTIFIED ON THE SITE PLAN.
10:07:53PM PARCELS ONE AND THREE HAVE CURRENT PD APPROVAL AND THEY ARE
10:07:57PM FOR THE USE OF ANIMAL SHELTER AND COMMERCIAL OFF-STREET
10:08:00PM PARKING.
10:08:01PM THIS APPLICATION SEEKS TO ADD PARCEL TWO, WHICH IS
10:08:05PM IDENTIFIED ON THE SITE PLAN.
10:08:07PM PARCEL THREE IS LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF ARMENIA, WHICH
10:08:10PM I'LL SHOW YOU MOMENTARILY.
10:08:12PM THAT SITE IS LOCATED WITHIN THE WEST TAMPA OVERLAY.
10:08:15PM THE REMAINDER OF THE SITE IS NOT LOCATED WITHIN AN OVERLAY.
10:08:18PM ON PAGE 2 OF THE STAFF REPORT, I PROVIDED THE PARCEL NUMBERS
10:08:22PM AND THE EXISTING VERSUS THE PROPOSED SQUARE FOOTAGE.
10:08:25PM IT SHOWS THE ADDITIONS.
10:08:26PM YOU'LL SEE THERE'S NO CHANGE PROPOSED ON PARCEL ONE WITH A
10:08:30PM CHANGE ON PARCEL TWO WITH 12,636 SQUARE FEET OF VETERINARY
10:08:36PM OFFICE AND THEN THE COMMERCIAL PARKING WHICH IS ON PARCEL
10:08:39PM THREE WILL REMAIN THE SAME.
10:08:41PM THIS IS THE SITE PLAN.
10:08:44PM I'VE BROKEN IT UP INTO THE PARCEL BY EACH PAGE.
10:08:47PM THIS IS PARCEL ONE AND THIS IS LOCATED, THIS IS ARMENIA
10:08:52PM AVENUE AND THIS IS THE EXISTING ANIMAL SHELTER THAT'S
10:08:55PM LOCATED HERE.
10:08:56PM YOU CAN SEE THE SURFACE PARKING THAT'S PROPOSED THERE.
10:08:59PM THIS IS THE SECOND PARCEL.
10:09:02PM SO THIS IS LOCATED NORTH OF THAT EXISTING PARCEL.
10:09:07PM AND THIS WOULD HAVE THE INCREASED SQUARE FOOTAGE ON THE
10:09:12PM PARCEL.
10:09:12PM THIS IS PARCEL THREE.
10:09:13PM THIS IS THE LOT WHICH IS LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF
10:09:17PM ARMENIA.
10:09:18PM THIS IS ARMENIA AVENUE AND IT IS USED FOR SURFACE PARKING
10:09:21PM FOR THAT USE.
10:09:22PM THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE SITE.
10:09:26PM SO THIS IS ARMENIA AVENUE.
10:09:29PM THIS IS TAMPA BAY, TO ORIENT YOU ON THE MAP.
10:09:32PM THIS IS THE SITE THAT'S LOCATED IN THE RED OUTLINE, THE
10:09:36PM DOTTED OUTLINE.
10:09:37PM SO THIS IS PARCEL ONE.
10:09:39PM THIS IS PARCEL TWO THAT'S LOCATED HERE, THE NEW PARCEL AND
10:09:43PM THEN THIS IS THE PARKING THAT'S LOCATED THERE IN THE PD.
10:09:47PM YOU CAN SEE THAT THE SITE IS SURROUNDED WITH RS 50 ZONING,
10:09:52PM PREDOMINANTLY IN THE AREA WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ARMENIA
10:09:55PM AVENUE, WHICH CONTAINS MORE OF YOUR COMMERCIAL ZONING USES.
10:10:00PM THEN I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE SITE THAT I CAN SHOW REALLY QUICK.
10:10:05PM THIS IS PARCEL TWO.
10:10:07PM THIS IS ON HOWARD.
10:10:12PM THIS IS NORTH OF THE SITE.
10:10:14PM SO THIS IS THAT CORNER PARCEL.
10:10:17PM THIS IS WHERE THE ROAD MEETS INTO THAT TRIANGLE.
10:10:20PM SO THIS LOT BEHIND IT, THIS IS PARCEL TWO.
10:10:24PM THIS IS A VIEW THAT'S LOOKING ON ARMENIA.
10:10:29PM THAT'S LOOKING SOUTH.
10:10:30PM THAT'S THE EXISTING STRUCTURE THAT WE'RE ALL FAMILIAR WITH
10:10:33PM ON PARCEL ONE.
10:10:34PM THIS IS LOOKING EAST ON DEWY.
10:10:37PM THAT'S ANOTHER VIEW GOING FURTHER DOWN DEWY.
10:10:42PM THIS IS EAST VIEW THAT'S ON PARCEL ONE.
10:10:46PM PARCEL TWO.
10:10:49PM AND THIS IS ANOTHER VIEW AND THIS IS WEST OF THE SITE.
10:10:55PM SO THE DRC STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE REQUEST AND WE FIND THE
10:11:00PM REQUEST CONSISTENT.
10:11:02PM SITE PLAN MODIFICATIONS REQUIRED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
10:11:06PM READING IS COUNCIL CHOOSES TO APPROVE THE APPLICATION.

10:11:25PM MR. CHAIRMAN, COUNCIL MEMBERS, DUE TO THE LATE HOUR, I WILL
10:11:33PM BE AS BRIEF AS I CAN.
10:11:35PM I REPRESENT THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF TAMPA BAY, AND WE ARE HERE
10:11:41PM ASKING FOR SOME PRETTY MODEST CHANGES, APPROXIMATELY AN
10:11:46PM INCREASE OF 1600 SQUARE FEET OF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE, AND
10:11:52PM WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO INCORPORATE ALL THE PARCELS ON THE
10:11:57PM CAMPUS INTO A SINGLE PD ZONING.

10:12:07PM DEPARTMENTS HAVE DETERMINED OUR REQUEST IS CONSISTENT, AND

10:12:49PM TAMPA BAY.
10:12:49PM I WANT TO BRIEFLY GO OVER WHAT'S ACTUALLY GOING ON HERE.
10:12:53PM WE HAVE A ZONING WHERE THE ANIMAL SHELTER WAS APPROVED WHICH
10:12:56PM IS REZ 18-29, THE ANIMAL SHELTER WAS BUILT IN BASICALLY
10:13:01PM 2018-2019.
10:13:04PM THIS IS THE ANIMAL SHELTER.
10:13:05PM IT WAS BUILT CONSISTENT WITH THE ZONING.
10:13:07PM HAD A NUMBER OF WAIVERS.
10:13:09PM IT'S COMPLETE.
10:13:09PM WE'RE NOT PROPOSING ANY CHANGES THERE WHATSOEVER.
10:13:12PM A PART OF THAT ZONING ALSO INCLUDED THIS PARKING LOT THAT
10:13:15PM HAD A NUMBER OF WAIVERS.
10:13:16PM IT WAS BUILT CONSISTENT WITH THE ZONING AND THE WAIVERS.
10:13:19PM THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL HERE, WHICH IS THE ANIMAL HEALTH CARE
10:13:23PM CENTER, WAS BUILT UNDER ITS EXISTING ZONING.
10:13:26PM HOWEVER, THE PROPOSAL HERE IS TO MODIFY THIS BUILDING, WHICH
10:13:31PM THIS IS HOW IT LOOKS TODAY, AND THE CHANGE IS TO BRING IT
10:13:36PM INTO THE PD AND TO ADD A SECOND STORY.
10:13:40PM THAT'S WHERE THE 12,639 SQUARE FEET OCCUR.
10:13:44PM PRETTY SIMPLE, STRAIGHTFORWARD PROJECT.

10:13:50PM DEPARTMENTS.

10:16:32PM SOMETIME LAST YEAR, YOU REMEMBER ON -- BETWEEN 42nd AND --
10:16:38PM A FOUR-YEAR-OLD WAS KILLED IN A CAR BY THE STRAY BULLET.
10:16:46PM THE CITY EACH YEAR, THE KABOOM PROJECT COMES TO TAMPA AND
10:16:51PM THEY PICK A PARK.
10:16:52PM THIS YEAR IT IS WILLIAMS PARK.
10:16:54PM SUNI WAS KILLED MAYBE THREE, FOUR BLOCKS AWAY FROM THAT
10:16:57PM PARK, HILLSBOROUGH AVENUE, WALK DOWN THAT STREET, YOU'RE
10:17:00PM RIGHT AT WILLIAMS PARK.
10:17:02PM I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT THE ADMINISTRATION BE REQUESTED TO
10:17:05PM INVESTIGATE INSTALLING A MEMORIAL MARKER AT WILLIAMS PARK IN
10:17:12PM CONJUNCTION WITH THE KABOOM PROJECT IN HONOR OF SUNI BELL
10:17:12PM WHO LOST HER LIFE AT THE VERY YOUNG AGE OF FOUR YEARS OLD

10:17:29PM RECEIVE A LETTER FROM A MS. ISABELLA TASSI IN REFERENCE TO
10:17:36PM THE CITY OF TAMPA PARKS -- PARK AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TAMPA.
10:17:40PM APPARENTLY, THERE'S SOME KIND OF CONFUSION WITH THE
10:17:43PM UTILIZATION OF THE PARK ON UT'S PROPERTY.
10:17:45PM I WOULD LIKE TO ENTER HER LETTER INTO THE RECORD AND HAVE
10:17:48PM THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT COME BACK AND GIVE US AN UPDATE OF
10:17:53PM WHAT IS INDICATED IN THE LETTER OF THE CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT
10:17:55PM THAT WE HAVE WITH UT AND THE PARK BECAUSE THEY ARE SAYING
10:17:58PM THAT OTHERS CANNOT UTILIZE THE PARK.
10:18:00PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: IS THIS THE E-MAIL THAT CAME THROUGH --
10:18:03PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES.
10:18:04PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN GUDES.

10:18:18PM SESSION.
10:18:18PM SEPTEMBER 1st UNDER STAFF REPORTS.
10:18:22PM MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN GUDES.
10:18:24PM SECOND FROM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
10:18:25PM ALL IN FAVOR?
10:18:27PM ANY OPPOSED?
10:18:28PM ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?
10:18:29PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: THAT'S IT.
10:18:31PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
10:18:33PM IN 2020, STATE ATTORNEY ANDREW WARREN WON REELECTION IN
10:18:37PM HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY WITH 369,129 VOTES.
10:18:42PM THAT'S 134,294 MORE VOTES THAN GOVERNOR DESANTIS RECEIVED IN
10:18:48PM THIS COUNTY DURING THE GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION.
10:18:51PM THE SAFETY OF OUR COMMUNITY DEPENDS ON OUR ELECTED
10:18:54PM PROSECUTOR BEING ABLE TO CONDUCT THE PUBLIC'S WORK WITHOUT
10:18:57PM DISRUPTION OR INTERFERENCE.
10:18:59PM THAT ELECTED OFFICIAL'S REPRESENT THE WILL OF THOSE WHO
10:19:04PM ELECTED THEM IS THE BEDROCK OF OUR COMMUNITY.
10:19:06PM STATE ATTORNEY WARREN AND I WERE HIGH SCHOOL CLASSMATES, AND
10:19:09PM EVEN AT A YOUNG AGE, I REALIZED HIS INTEGRITY AND POTENTIAL
10:19:13PM TO USE HIS TALENTS TO MAKE OUR COMMUNITY BETTER.
10:19:16PM I URGE THE GOVERNOR TO IMMEDIATELY REVERSE THIS DECISION AND
10:19:19PM ALLOW OUR COUNTY TO GET BACK TO BUSINESS.
10:19:22PM JUST WANTED TO MAKE THE ANNOUNCEMENT.
10:19:26PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, MA'AM.
10:19:26PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
10:19:27PM COUNCILMAN VIERA, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING, SIR?
10:19:30PM >>LUIS VIERA: NO.
10:19:31PM I'M GLAD COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK BROUGHT UP THE ISSUE ON
10:19:35PM MR. WARREN.
10:19:36PM I FIND IT OBSCENE AND JUST TERRIBLE PRECEDENT.
10:19:42PM I'VE KNOWN MR. WARREN SINCE -- I DIDN'T GO TO HIGH SCHOOL
10:19:47PM WITH HIM, BUT I'VE KNOWN HIM SINCE HE RAN IN '16, AND I FIND
10:19:51PM HIM TO BE A VERY HONORABLE GENTLEMAN, A FINE PROSECUTOR, A
10:19:54PM GOOD FAMILY MAN, AND JUST A GOOD COMMUNITY SERVANT.
10:19:59PM AND THIS IS A REAL ACT AGAINST HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY AND
10:20:05PM TAMPA.
10:20:06PM AND I THINK THAT PEOPLE SHOULD BE OUTRAGED ON MANY, MANY
10:20:10PM DIFFERENT LEVELS.
10:20:11PM BUT I'VE SEEN HIM AT WORK IN SOME MANY DIFFERENT LEVELS.
10:20:16PM I JUST FIND HIM TO BE A GOOD GENTLEMAN AND FINE INDIVIDUAL.
10:20:20PM WHEN I SAW THAT HAPPENING, I WAS SHOCKED.
10:20:22PM THAT'S NOT THE WAY THAT WE SHOULD GOVERN HERE IN FLORIDA.
10:20:28PM JUST MY SENTIMENTS.
10:20:29PM THANK YOU.
10:20:32PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
10:20:33PM >>BILL CARLSON: JUST TO THAT POINT, AND WITHOUT NAMING NAMES
10:20:37PM OR GETTING TOO DEEP INTO IT.
10:20:39PM YOU WATCH THE PRESS CONFERENCE, IT APPEARS THAT TAMPA'S
10:20:44PM CRIME RATE IS GOING TO BE POLITICIZED OVER THE NEXT FEW
10:20:47PM MONTHS AND THERE ARE ALTERNATIVE NARRATIVES.
10:20:51PM I'VE SPOKEN TO A LOT OF PEOPLE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT INSIDE AND
10:20:53PM OUTSIDE OF TAMPA, AND NOBODY I'VE TALKED TO HAS BLAMED
10:20:59PM ANDREW WARREN.
10:21:00PM THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE THAT THEY BLAME FOR IT.
10:21:02PM BUT OUR TAMPA VIOLENT CRIME RATE HAS GONE UP EVERY YEAR FOR
10:21:07PM THE LAST THREE YEARS AS PRESENTED BY OUR NEW POLICE CHIEF,
10:21:10PM AND THIS COUNCIL HAS APPROVED EVERY FUNDING INCREASE
10:21:14PM INCLUDING THE LAST PAY INCREASE AND WE'VE BEEN CRITICIZED BY
10:21:19PM THAT FROM A LOT OF FOLKS IN THE COMMUNITY BUT THERE ARE A
10:21:22PM LOT OF REASONS THAT THE CRIME RATE HAS GONE UP.
10:21:25PM I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE A MOTION NOW BUT I THINK WE MAY AT
10:21:30PM SOME POINT WANT TO USE OUR INVESTIGATIVE POWERS TO GET AN
10:21:34PM OBJECTIVE THIRD-PARTY ORGANIZATION TO LOOK AT TAMPA'S CRIME
10:21:38PM RATE.
10:21:40PM NOT THAT WE WOULDN'T TRUST THE VIEWS OF ANYBODY ELSE BUT
10:21:44PM WOULD NEED TO HAVE SOMEBODY OUTSIDE THE MARKET WHO IS
10:21:48PM RESPECTED WHO COULD COME IN AND SAY, OKAY, HERE IS WHY YOUR
10:21:51PM CRIME RATE HAS GONE UP EACH YEAR FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS.
10:21:55PM OTHERWISE, IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE USED AS A WEAPON IN LOTS
10:21:58PM OF WAYS OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS.
10:22:01PM THANK YOU.
10:22:01PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
10:22:02PM ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?
10:22:03PM COUNCILMAN GUDES, I HAND YOU THE GAVEL.
10:22:07PM I JUST WANTED TO MAKE A MOTION, IN LIEU OF THE RECENT
10:22:09PM ANNOUNCEMENT OF TONY'S YBOR RESTAURANT CLOSING AFTER
10:22:13PM 93 YEARS AND THE SCAGLIONE FAMILY'S LONG-SERVING
10:22:17PM CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE COMMUNITY, I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE A
10:22:17PM COMMENDATION TO THE SCAGLIONE FAMILY AT A FUTURE DATE TO BE
10:22:22PM DETERMINED.
10:22:23PM >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. MANISCALCO MADE A MOTION.
10:22:25PM MR. MIRANDA SECONDED IT.
10:22:27PM ALL IN FAVOR?
10:22:28PM AYES HAVE IT.
10:22:29PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THAT'S IT.
10:22:31PM MOTION TO RECEIVE AND FILE FROM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
10:22:33PM SECONDED FROM COUNCILMAN HURTAK.
10:22:36PM ALL IN FAVOR?
