5:05:00PM THERE SHOULD BE A PowerPoint COMING UP SOON.
5:05:02PM GOOD AFTERNOON.
5:05:08PM AS YOU'RE AWARE, TWO WEEKS AGO, DIRECTOR HENDERSON WAS HERE
5:05:10PM TO PRESENT THE FIRST PUBLIC HEARING ON OUR ANNUAL ACTION
5:05:14PM PLAN.
5:05:14PM I AM HERE TO INTRODUCE OUR SECOND PUBLIC HEARING AND

5:06:40PM RIGHT NOW WE'RE ON THE SECOND PUBLIC HEARING.
5:06:42PM LET'S SEE IF THIS WILL MOVE FORWARD.
5:06:44PM SO IN 2022, WE PASSED A FIVE-YEAR CONSOLIDATED PLAN WHICH
5:06:50PM INDICATES OUR GOALS AND PRIORITIES FOR THE FIVE YEARS FOR
5:06:53PM OUR ANNUAL ACTION PLAN IS EVERY YEAR SINCE THEN.
5:06:59PM SO WE ARE IN THE THIRD YEAR OF THE FIVE-YEAR PLAN UPCOMING.
5:07:03PM THIS ACTION PLAN WILL BE SUBMITTED TO HUD IN AUGUST, AND IT
5:07:08PM DESCRIBES ALL OF THE PLANNED ACTIVITIES FOR THE FEDERAL
5:07:11PM DOLLARS THAT WE RECEIVE.
5:07:12PM AGAIN, WE TALKED ABOUT OUR AVAILABLE FUNDING.
5:07:17PM WE DID A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR CDBG DOLLARS.
5:07:21PM WE HAD COMMITTEES RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUNDING WHICH YOU'LL
5:07:26PM SEE IN THE SLIDES.
5:07:27PM THAT THEN GET ENTERED INTO THE DRAFT PLAN AND THEN SUBMITTED
5:07:31PM TO HUD.

5:08:08PM FORMULA ALLOCATIONS FROM HUD AND THE STATE TOTALING
5:08:13PM APPROXIMATELY $13.7 MILLION WHICH IS A SLIGHT REDUCTION FROM
5:08:15PM THE LAST YEAR.
5:08:16PM THIS IS HOW WE PLAN ON SPENDING THE $13 MILLION IN OUR
5:08:22PM ACTION PLAN.
5:08:23PM THIS DOES INCLUDE STATE FUNDING OF ABOUT $3 MILLION AS WELL
5:08:26PM AND SOME OF THE PROGRAMS ADMINISTRATION, HOW WE'RE GOING TO
5:08:31PM ALLOCATE THE FUNDS.
5:08:32PM A LITTLE BIT ABOUT CDBG.
5:08:37PM IT IS THE MOST FLEXIBLE OF THE FUNDING SOURCES.
5:08:39PM ELIGIBLE USES INCLUDE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT, INFRASTRUCTURE,
5:08:43PM PUBLIC FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS, ACQUISITION OF LAND,
5:08:47PM ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY, SPECIAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

5:09:17PM WE DID ANOTHER RFP FOR PUBLIC FACILITY PROGRAMS, WHICH THE
5:09:26PM AWARDS ARE BASED ON THE SCORES AND THE PRIORITIES FROM THE

5:09:31PM THIS DOES INCLUDE SOME FUNDS FROM PREVIOUS YEARS, ABOUT

5:09:46PM CYCLE.
5:09:47PM THESE ARE THE SAME AGENCIES FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR, AND THEY

5:13:18PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL.
5:13:21PM IF NOT, I'LL ASK IF THERE'S ANYBODY FROM THE PUBLIC WHO
5:13:24PM WISHES TO SPEAK ON ITEM 1.
5:13:25PM NO ACTION IS BEING TAKEN.
5:13:26PM THIS IS THE PUBLIC HEARING.
5:13:27PM I SEE NONE.
5:13:28PM ALL RIGHT.
5:13:30PM DO WE LEAVE IT OPEN?
5:13:31PM MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
5:13:34PM SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
5:13:35PM ALL IN FAVOR?
5:13:35PM AYE.
5:13:36PM ANY OPPOSED?
5:13:37PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
5:13:38PM >> THANK YOU.
5:13:39PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NEXT IS ITEM NUMBER 2, BE AGAIN, THIS IS
5:13:42PM NON-QUASI-JUDICIAL.
5:13:43PM IF ANYBODY IS GOING TO SPEAK, THEY DO NOT NEED TO BE SWORN
5:13:46PM IN YET.
5:13:47PM YES, SIR.
5:13:49PM >>ERIC COTTON: ERIC COTTON, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
5:13:52PM IF I COULD GET THE PRESENTATION UP, PLEASE.
5:14:00PM IF NOT, I HAVE A PAPER VERSION.
5:14:02PM WE'LL START THE PAPER VERSION.
5:14:04PM I'LL JUMP RIGHT INTO WHERE WE'RE AT.
5:14:10PM WE HAD THE -- PLANNING COMMISSION MADE THE RECOMMENDATION.
5:14:13PM THESE WERE THE FIRST PART OF THE AGENDA CYCLE.
5:14:16PM WE WERE IN FRONT OF COUNCIL IN MAY AND THEN THE TRANSMITTAL
5:14:21PM HEARING.
5:14:21PM PLANNING COMMISSION MADE THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS.
5:14:22PM NOW WE'RE HERE FOR FIRST READINGS OF THE REQUEST.
5:14:26PM THE FIRST ONE ON THE AGENDA OR THE FIRST ONE IN THE TEXT
5:14:32PM AMENDMENT IS EXPANDING THE AREA OF ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS
5:14:37PM IN THE CITY.
5:14:37PM THERE WAS THE EXPANSION.
5:14:42PM THIS IS THE MAP THAT I THINK COUNCIL HAS SEEN PREVIOUSLY.
5:14:45PM RIGHT NOW, THEY ARE ALLOWED AS A SPECIAL USE IN SEMINOLE
5:14:50PM HEIGHTS IN EAST TAMPA AND BY RIGHT IN TAMPA HEIGHTS IN AN
5:14:59PM AREA AROUND LOWRY PARK CENTRAL WHICH ALLOWS FOR THE SPECIAL
5:15:04PM USE ALSO.
5:15:05PM THE AMENDMENT WOULD EXPAND THAT AREA.
5:15:09PM AS YOU CAN SEE, THIS IS A PRETTY LARGE AREA OF THE CITY.
5:15:13PM 21%.
5:15:14PM ABOUT A FIFTH OF THE CITY WOULD BE ALLOWED TO APPLY OR HAVE
5:15:18PM AN ADU BY RIGHT.
5:15:20PM THIS DOVETAILS TO THE NEXT PORTION OF WHAT WAS BEING
5:15:26PM PROPOSED FOR THE AMENDMENT, WHICH IS ACTUALLY AMENDING THE
5:15:29PM CODE TO ALLOW NOT JUST THE EXPANSION OF THEM, BUT ALLOW --
5:15:36PM STILL HAVE TO BE OWNER OCCUPIED, BUT THERE WERE A COUPLE OF
5:15:39PM AMENDMENTS TO THE CODE.
5:15:43PM ONE, THE WAY THE CURRENT CODE READS, THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS
5:15:46PM TO LIVE IN THE RESIDENCE, THE ADU COULD BE THE ONE THAT
5:15:51PM COULD BE A RENTAL IN THE BACK.
5:15:52PM THIS WOULD CHANGE THAT AND ALLOW, IF I'M THE OWNER OF THE
5:15:56PM PROPERTY, I'M AN ELDERLY INDIVIDUAL, MOVE INTO AN ADU AND
5:16:00PM RENT OUT THE MAIN STRUCTURE.
5:16:02PM IT ALSO ALLOWS FOR AN ADU TO GO INTO A NONCONFORMING
5:16:09PM STRUCTURE.
5:16:09PM RIGHT NOW, COUNCIL HAS SEEN THESE ON APPEALS, COME IN FOR A
5:16:13PM SPECIAL USE 1.
5:16:14PM THE EXISTING STRUCTURE IS A 1923 GARAGE.
5:16:18PM IT'S TWO AND A HALF FEET FROM THE PROPERTY LINE.
5:16:20PM NEEDS TO BE THREE FEET, WE WOULD ADMINISTRATIVELY DENY THE
5:16:23PM REQUEST AT STAFF LEVEL.
5:16:24PM THEY WOULD APPEAL TO CITY COUNCIL AND CITY COUNCIL WOULD
5:16:27PM MAKE THE DETERMINATION WHETHER OR NOT IT IS APPROPRIATE.
5:16:29PM THE OTHER THING IT ALLOWS, WE ADDED THE WORD UNRELATED, BUT
5:16:34PM THE CURRENT CODE SAYS FOR AN ADU YOU CAN HAVE TWO
5:16:39PM INDIVIDUALS LIVING IN IT.
5:16:41PM WE'RE SPECIFYING UNRELATED.
5:16:42PM IF A HUSBAND AND WIFE HAD A CHILD, THEY WOULD NOT BE IN
5:16:45PM VIOLATION OF THE CODE, USING THAT AS AN EXAMPLE.
5:16:48PM RIGHT NOW THEY WOULD BE EXCEEDING WHAT WOULD BE ALLOWED BY
5:16:50PM CODE.
5:16:51PM I SHOULD BE ASKING, DOES COUNCIL HAVE QUESTIONS AS I'M GOING
5:16:54PM THROUGH THESE?
5:16:54PM WAIT UNTIL THE END?
5:16:56PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: IS IT A LENGTHY PRESENTATION.
5:16:58PM DO YOU WANT TO HAVE NATURAL STOPPING POINTS?
5:17:00PM >>ERIC COTTON: THAT'S UP TO COUNCIL.
5:17:01PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME?
5:17:04PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: IF I MAY, WE'RE SAYING REALLY THE WAY IT
5:17:07PM IS NOW, THE PERSON BEHIND HAS GOT TO BE A RELATIVE OF THE
5:17:12PM OWNER OF THE HOUSE.
5:17:13PM THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE GOT TO LIVE IN THE HOUSE.
5:17:15PM >>ERIC COTTON: CORRECT.
5:17:16PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: WHAT ARE THE CHANGES FROM THAT?
5:17:18PM >>ERIC COTTON: AS THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE, I COULD MOVE INTO
5:17:21PM THE ADU.
5:17:22PM SINGLE 65-YEAR-OLD GUY, I COULD MOVE INTO THE ADU AND THEN
5:17:26PM RENT IT OUT TO A FAMILY IN THE FRONT.
5:17:28PM IT WOULD CHANGE THE DYNAMICS OF WHAT'S AVAILABLE.
5:17:32PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK.
5:17:33PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY MAYBE WE SHOULD STOP
5:17:35PM AT EACH AMENDMENT AND THAT WAY, BECAUSE I KNOW WE HAVE A LOT
5:17:41PM OF THE PUBLIC HERE THAT WANT TO TALK ON CERTAIN THINGS.
5:17:44PM THAT WAY THE PUBLIC CAN SPEAK BRIEFLY ON PARTICULAR
5:17:49PM AMENDMENTS INSTEAD OF WAITING UNTIL THE END.
5:17:52PM NO?
5:17:52PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NO.
5:17:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
5:17:54PM NEVER MIND.
5:17:56PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ALL RIGHT.
5:17:57PM KEEP GOING, SIR.
5:18:00PM >>ERIC COTTON: THE NEXT AMENDMENT WAS INITIATED BY THE LEGAL
5:18:03PM DEPARTMENT.
5:18:04PM THIS IS BASICALLY TRYING TO ADDRESS DEMOLITION BY NEGLECT IN
5:18:08PM THE HISTORIC DISTRICTS.
5:18:09PM PEOPLE WHO OWN A HISTORIC PROPERTY AT TIMES, PEOPLE WILL --
5:18:15PM THEY WOULD LIKE THAT PROPERTY TO GO AWAY, SO THEY LET IT
5:18:19PM DETERIORATE.
5:18:20PM THIS WOULD BE ADDRESSING THOSE.
5:18:21PM THEY DO GO TO CODE ENFORCEMENT.
5:18:24PM UP TO A $15,000 FINE FOR THE NEGLECT OF THE STRUCTURE.
5:18:28PM ONCE THEY GO THROUGH THE PUBLIC HEARING PROCESS AND SUCH.
5:18:33PM >>LYNN HURTAK: MY ONLY QUESTION OF THIS IS, IS IT JUST
5:18:36PM 15,000?
5:18:38PM SO PER VIOLATION.
5:18:40PM YOU COULD HAVE MULTIPLE VIOLATIONS.
5:18:42PM BECAUSE HONESTLY $15,000 ISN'T THAT MUCH.
5:18:45PM IT'S PROBABLY CHEAPER THAN GETTING DEMO.
5:18:48PM >> DANA CROSBY COLLIER, CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.
5:18:51PM THE WAY THE STATUTE IS WRITTEN, THE STATUTE ALLOWS US TO
5:18:55PM IDENTIFY CERTAIN THINGS IN OUR CODE THAT WE WOULD CALL
5:18:58PM IRREPARABLE DAMAGE.
5:18:59PM UNDER CHAPTER 162 OF FLORIDA STATUTES, THAT IS CAPPED AT
5:19:03PM 15,000.
5:19:04PM SO WHEN WE WERE HERE BEFORE YOU SEVERAL MONTHS AGO AND THERE
5:19:08PM HAD BEEN AN UNFORTUNATE DEMOLITION OF A HISTORIC STRUCTURE,
5:19:11PM WE DID GO THROUGH THE CODE ENFORCEMENT PROCESS ON THAT
5:19:13PM STRUCTURE, BUT THERE WAS SOME FRUSTRATION AS TO HOW THIS CAN
5:19:18PM HAPPEN IN OUR CITY THAT A HISTORIC STRUCTURE WOULD BE
5:19:21PM DEMOLISHED.
5:19:22PM WE WERE ABLE TO PULL THIS LANGUAGE FROM FLORIDA STATUTES TO
5:19:25PM ALLOW THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE TO IMPOSE THAT $15,000 FINE.
5:19:29PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.
5:19:31PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: AGAIN, SORRY TO -- THAT'S FINE AND DANDY,
5:19:35PM BUT HAVE WE EVER LOOKED -- HOW DID THIS COME ABOUT?
5:19:38PM HAS CODE ENFORCEMENT LOOKED AT HOUSING LIKE THIS REAL
5:19:45PM DETERIORATED AND NO ONE HAS DONE ANYTHING WITH IT?
5:19:48PM WHY IS IT WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS?
5:19:51PM >> THERE ARE SOME SITUATIONS THAT -- THIS ONE DERIVED FROM
5:19:55PM THE OLDEST HOUSE IN YBOR THAT WAS DEMOLISHED BY THE OWNER
5:20:00PM WHEN THEY WERE DOING RENOVATIONS AND THE HOUSE FELL.
5:20:05PM BUT WHAT WE ALSO HAVE SEEN IN THE COMMUNITY ARE HISTORIC
5:20:10PM STRUCTURES THAT THE DIRT IS WORTH A LOT MORE THAN THAT
5:20:13PM STRUCTURE.
5:20:13PM AND SO WE'VE SEEN SOME SITUATIONS WHERE THE POWER IS TURNED
5:20:17PM OFF OR THE WATER IS TURNED OFF AND SOMETHING IS DONE SO THE
5:20:21PM HOUSE IS GOING TO SIT THERE AND DETERIORATE.
5:20:23PM THAT IS CALLED DEMOLITION BY NEGLECT AND IT IS AN
5:20:26PM INTENTIONAL ACT.
5:20:26PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: IN ORDER TO SATISFY MY MOVING MIND, DO
5:20:33PM YOU WORK CLOSELY WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT WHERE THEY PATROL THE
5:20:35PM AREA AROUND THE CITY?
5:20:36PM SOMETIMES DURING THE YEAR, AND THEY COME BACK AND BRING THE
5:20:39PM CASES UP.
5:20:40PM IS THAT THE WAY IT'S DONE?
5:20:42PM WE CAN'T USE IT LIKE THE OLD TIME WHERE A NEIGHBOR WOULD
5:20:45PM CALL CITY, US, MORE THAN LIKELY ONE OF THE CITY COUNCIL
5:20:49PM MEMBERS, WE WOULD CALL CODE ENFORCEMENT AND SAY SO AND SO
5:20:52PM TOLD US.
5:20:53PM NOW THEY CHANGED THE LAW.
5:20:54PM PUT THAT PERSON IN DANGER BECAUSE NOW WE CAN'T TURN IT IN
5:20:58PM BECAUSE NOW IF WE PUT THAT PERSON THAT TALKED ABOUT THE
5:21:02PM HOUSE BEING RUN DOWN NEXT TO HIM OR HER AND THEY BECOME WHO
5:21:06PM KNOWS IN TODAY'S SOCIETY.
5:21:07PM >> TO DATE, THESE HAVE COME UP AS A RESPONSE TO A COMPLAINT.
5:21:11PM THE ONES WE'RE AWARE OF HAVE COME BECAUSE NEIGHBORS HAVE
5:21:14PM COMPLAINED.
5:21:14PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU.
5:21:15PM >> YES, SIR.
5:21:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: GO AHEAD, SIR.
5:21:17PM >>ERIC COTTON: THE NEXT WAS AN AMENDMENT TO 27-159, THE
5:21:22PM PROJECTIONS OF PORCHES INTO THE FRONT YARD.
5:21:28PM THIS WAS A CLEANUP BECAUSE WHEN THIS WAS AMENDED ABOUT THREE
5:21:31PM YEARS AGO, THE LANGUAGE WAS MODIFIED BUT THE WAY THE
5:21:36PM ORDINANCE WAS WRITTEN, THE ADOPTION AND THE POSTING BY
5:21:41PM MUNICODE STILL HAD IT GOING THROUGH A VARIANCE OR THROUGH A
5:21:44PM DESIGN EXCEPTION.
5:21:45PM AND THE GOAL WAS TO ALLOW THOSE BY RIGHT TO GO UP TO 8 FEET.
5:21:48PM ENCROACH UP TO 8 FEET AS LONG AS MINIMUM OF FIVE FEET FROM
5:21:52PM THE PROPERTY LINE.
5:21:53PM THIS WAS TO ALLOW THE FRONT PORCH -- ALLOW FRONT PORCHES,
5:21:56PM BRINGING BACK THE TRADITIONAL KIND OF NEIGHBORHOODS AND
5:21:58PM SUCH.
5:21:59PM THIS WAS A FIX.
5:22:00PM TAKE IT OUT OF PDs, SOMETHING IN THE ORIGINAL ORDINANCE,
5:22:04PM AND COUNCIL WANTED TO -- PDs REMOVED FROM THAT GIVEN THE
5:22:09PM SENSE IF YOU ARE GOING BEFORE COUNCIL FOR A PD, YOU SHOULD
5:22:13PM SORT OF KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO GET.
5:22:15PM THIS WOULD REMOVE THAT OPTION.
5:22:16PM THE NEXT ONE IS THE YBOR PARKING REQUIREMENTS.
5:22:23PM THIS IS AN AMENDMENT TO BOTH 27-177 AND 27-178.
5:22:27PM FOR 27-177, IT IS ACTUALLY AMENDING THE USE TABLE TO MAKE
5:22:31PM THEM SPECIAL USE 2s, WHICH WOULD REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING
5:22:34PM BEFORE CITY COUNCIL.
5:22:34PM RIGHT NOW, THEY ARE ALLOWED IN CERTAIN DISTRICTS AS WE
5:22:37PM CHANGE THEM ALL TO SPECIAL USE 2s.
5:22:39PM UPDATING BUFFERING AND SIGNAGE REQUIREMENTS AND ALSO
5:22:44PM REQUIRING ANNUAL OPERATION PLAN AND SECURITY PLAN FOR PAID
5:22:49PM PARKING LOTS OR PRINCIPAL USE PARKING LOTS THAT ARE NOT
5:22:52PM AFFILIATED WITH A BUSINESS BUT THE PARKING LOT IS THE
5:22:55PM PRINCIPAL BUSINESS OF THAT LOT.
5:22:56PM THAT WOULD REQUIRE WITH THE RECOMMENDATION FROM THE CODE WAS
5:23:00PM TO UNIFORM PRIVATE SECURITY GUARDS LICENSED BY THE STATE OF
5:23:05PM FLORIDA AND POSTED HOURS OF OPERATION.
5:23:07PM MAJOR DiFELICE FROM TPD IS HERE TO PROVIDE ANY DATA IF YOU
5:23:13PM ARE INTERESTED IN SEEING THAT.
5:23:14PM I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO PAUSE AND LET HIM SPEAK OR LET
5:23:17PM ME CONTINUE WITH WHAT I'M DOING HERE.
5:23:19PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
5:23:22PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WHEN THIS WAS LAST BROUGHT UP, I EXPRESSED
5:23:24PM THE SAME FEELINGS ABOUT THIS.
5:23:28PM I UNDERSTAND THE INTENT AND I SUPPORT THE INTENT, BUT I HAVE
5:23:31PM A PROBLEM TRYING TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN PAID AND UNPAID
5:23:35PM BECAUSE A PARKING LOT IS A PARKING LOT IS A PARKING LOT,
5:23:37PM WHETHER SOMEBODY IS PAYING FOR IT OR NOT.
5:23:40PM IF WE HAVE A SECURITY ISSUE IN PARKING LOTS, COMMON SENSE
5:23:46PM WOULD TELL YOU WE HAVE SECURITY ISSUES ACROSS EVERY TYPE OF
5:23:49PM PARKING LOT.
5:23:49PM I'M STILL STRUGGLING WITH THE CONCEPT THAT WE'RE
5:23:53PM DIFFERENTIATING BETWEEN THE TWO.
5:23:55PM I WOULD UNDERSTAND IF WE SAID PARKING LOTS IN EXCESS OF SO
5:23:59PM MANY SPOTS, BUT I'M HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME WITH THAT.
5:24:07PM >>LYNN HURTAK: MS. FEELEY, WHEN SHE WAS HERE TO DESCRIBE AT
5:24:09PM THE BEGINNING OR THE LAST TIME THIS CAME FORWARD, SAID WE
5:24:12PM WOULD WORK ON THAT IN THE FUTURE, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIT IT
5:24:16PM IN THIS TEXT AMENDMENT CYCLE.
5:24:18PM AM I CORRECT ON THAT?
5:24:19PM >>ERIC COTTON: IT IS CORRECT.
5:24:21PM AGAIN, YOU ALL KNOW, BECAUSE ABBYE IS HERE EVERY FIRST
5:24:25PM MEETING OF EACH MONTH, TALKING ABOUT THE CODE UPDATE.
5:24:30PM THAT IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT THE CONSULTANT THAT WE
5:24:32PM HIRED FOR THE CODE TO DO A DEEPER DIVE INTO NOT JUST YBOR
5:24:36PM PARKING, BUT EVERYTHING IN OUR CODE.
5:24:37PM SO THEY WERE GOING TO LOOK AT THAT AS A FUTURE AMENDMENT OR
5:24:40PM A FUTURE CHANGE IF NECESSARY.
5:24:44PM AGAIN, MAJOR DiFELICE IS HERE IF YOU WANT TO HEAR TPD
5:24:48PM STATISTICS.
5:24:48PM HE DOES HAVE STATISTICS TO SHARE.
5:24:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I THINK THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL.
5:24:52PM IF HE HAS STATISTICS THAT SAYS THERE IS A CRIME DIFFERENCE
5:24:55PM BETWEEN PAID AND UNPAID I MEAN --
5:25:00PM >>ERIC COTTON: LET ME GET OUT OF THE WAY.
5:25:02PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
5:25:03PM HOW ARE YOU?
5:25:07PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:25:08PM >> ERIC DiFELICE, TAMPA POLICE DEPARTMENT.
5:25:10PM MAJOR.
5:25:13PM SO SLIDE 12 IS THE ONE THAT WAS INCLUDED IN THE
5:25:19PM PRESENTATION.
5:25:19PM THIS GOES BACK TO 2022.
5:25:21PM AT THE BOTTOM ON THE LEFT-HAND SIDE WE SEE THAT CITY-OWNED
5:25:24PM LOTS VERSUS PRIVATE LOTS, THE CRIME OR DISPARITY BETWEEN
5:25:28PM THEM, WE HAD 38 CITY-OWNED LOTS AND INCIDENTS AND ON THE
5:25:32PM LEFT THAT COLUMN SHOWS ALL OF THE CRIME THAT WE WERE
5:25:37PM TRACKING.
5:25:42PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THAT'S CITY-OWNED LOTS.
5:25:44PM DO YOU HAVE PAID VERSUS UNPAID DATA?
5:25:46PM >> NO, WE DO NOT HAVE THAT INFORMATION.
5:25:48PM WE HAVE THE DISPARITY BETWEEN CITY-OWNED AND PRIVATE OWNED
5:25:54PM LOTS.
5:25:55PM WHAT WE WOULD SAY IS THAT SOME OF THE PRIVATE OWNED LOTS
5:25:59PM UNPAID VERSUS PAID, SOME OF THOSE LOTS, MY UNDERSTANDING
5:26:01PM THEY ARE NOT OPEN FOR BUSINESS WHEN THE BUSINESS IS CLOSED,
5:26:06PM LIKE SAY A COLUMBIA RESTAURANTS, SIGNS PREVENTING PEOPLE
5:26:09PM FROM PARKING THERE AND PARTAKING IN THE RESTAURANT OR
5:26:12PM BUSINESS ACTIVITIES.
5:26:13PM WHEN THEY CLOSE, TYPICALLY SOMETHING FOR A RESTAURANT, THEY
5:26:16PM CLOSE EARLIER THAN 3 IN THE MORNING.
5:26:18PM THEY ARE NOT ALLOWING PEOPLE TO PARK THERE.
5:26:20PM SO YOU DON'T HAVE THE USAGE AND THE CONGREGATION AND THE
5:26:24PM ASSOCIATED CRIMES.
5:26:26PM WHETHER IT BE A REGULAR CRIME, A TRUE CRIME OR A
5:26:30PM QUALITY-OF-LIFE COMPLAINT, WHETHER THAT BE LOUD MUSIC,
5:26:33PM EXCESSIVE PARTYING OR LITTERING, WE'RE NOT SEEING THOSE IN
5:26:36PM THOSE TYPE OF LOTS JUST BECAUSE THE NATURE OF THE BUSINESS.
5:26:39PM SOME OF THE LOTS THAT WERE DISCUSSED ARE SHERIFF LOTS DOWN
5:26:43PM THERE.
5:26:43PM CLEARLY WE'RE NOT HAVING ANY PROBLEMS IN ANY OF THOSE LOTS.
5:26:46PM SO I THINK THAT THIS ISSUE IS COMPLEX AND YOU HAVE TO REALLY
5:26:51PM DIVE IN TO SEE WHY WE'RE NOT HAVING THOSE AND WHY THERE
5:26:54PM WOULD BE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FOR-PROFIT VERSUS A
5:26:56PM NOT-FOR-PROFIT LOT.
5:26:59PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SO, MR. COTTON, THE ISSUE WITH PAID VERSUS
5:27:05PM UNPAID AND THE BUSINESSES, IN THIS PROPOSED PLAN CHANGE,
5:27:11PM DOES IT ALLOW -- DOES IT HAVE ANY LANGUAGE IN THERE THAT
5:27:15PM WOULD RESTRICT THESE PARKING LOTS IF THE BUSINESS IS NOT
5:27:19PM OPEN?
5:27:19PM WOULD THEY BE CONSIDERED -- I MEAN, IF THE BUSINESS IS NOT
5:27:22PM OPEN, WOULD IT FORBID THEM FROM HAVING THEIR PARKING LOTS
5:27:25PM OPEN?
5:27:26PM >>ERIC COTTON: IF I OWNED A RESTAURANT AND THEN CLOSED THE
5:27:28PM RESTAURANT AND OPENED MY PARKING LOT JUST FOR GENERAL PUBLIC
5:27:31PM PARKING?
5:27:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: EXACTLY.
5:27:33PM IS THERE A REQUIREMENT THAT THEY CLOSE THE PARKING LOT?
5:27:35PM >>ERIC COTTON: THERE ISN'T A REQUIREMENT IN THE CODE, BUT
5:27:37PM THAT WOULD BECOME A PAID PARKING LOT AT THAT POINT.
5:27:39PM MOVING FROM ACCESSORY -- GENERAL PARKING LOT, LET PEOPLE
5:27:44PM PARK FOR FREE.
5:27:45PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I'M SAYING WOULD THEY BE REQUIRED TO SEAL
5:27:48PM IT OFF AND CLOSE IT IF THE BUSINESS WASN'T OPEN?
5:27:50PM >>ERIC COTTON: NOTHING IN THE LANGUAGE THAT WOULD REQUIRE
5:27:52PM THAT RIGHT NOW.
5:27:53PM WE DO HAVE AN OPERATIONS PLAN AS PART OF THIS AMENDMENT FOR
5:27:56PM PAID PARKING LOTS TO ENCOURAGE THAT WHEN THEY DO CLOSE.
5:28:00PM IF YOUR PRINCIPAL USE IS PARKING, AFTER A CERTAIN HOUR,
5:28:03PM LET'S SAY YOU CLOSE YOUR PARKING LOT AT 4:00 IN THE MORNING,
5:28:06PM 4:00 SUPPOSED TO FENCE IT OFF OR PUT SOME BARRIER SO PEOPLE
5:28:10PM CAN'T CONTINUE TO GO INTO THAT LOCATION.
5:28:12PM I KNOW A LOT OF THE PRIVATE PARKING LOTS IN YBOR DO CLOSE
5:28:17PM THEIR PARKING LOTS AT A CERTAIN TIME SO YOU CAN'T ACCESS IT.
5:28:22PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WE DON'T REQUIRE THAT.
5:28:25PM I'M SWELLING WIDGETS AND MY WIDGET COMPANY CLOSES AT 7 P.M.,
5:28:30PM MY PARKING LOT DOESN'T CLOSE UNLESS I PHYSICALLY DO IT
5:28:33PM MYSELF.
5:28:34PM >>ERIC COTTON: THAT WOULD BE CORRECT.
5:28:36PM MOST PARKING LOTS HAVE TOW-AWAY SIGNS.
5:28:40PM NOTHING IN THE CODE SAYS YOU MUST SEAL OFF YOUR PARKING LOT.
5:28:44PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: 38 TO 64, IS THAT THE COMPLAINTS ON THE
5:28:49PM DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PRIVATE AND PUBLIC?
5:28:51PM >> NO, CITY-OWNED.
5:28:54PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: SAME THING.
5:28:56PM ONLY THING I CAN SAY A BIG DIFFERENCE IN, THE CRIMINAL
5:28:59PM MISCHIEF FELONY AND CRIMINAL MISCHIEF, LESS THAN $1,000.
5:29:05PM ON THE MIDDLE OF THE PAGE.
5:29:08PM >> CRIMINAL MISCHIEF LESS THAN 1,000.
5:29:11PM FIVE FOR CITY OWNED.
5:29:12PM RIGHT.
5:29:13PM AND ONE FOR PRIVATE LOTS.
5:29:15PM FOR THE DISPARITY.
5:29:18PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: AUTO BURGLARY, THEFT FROM A MOTOR
5:29:20PM VEHICLE IS 17.
5:29:22PM HIGHEST ON THE PRIVATE LOT, CORRECT?
5:29:24PM >> CORRECT.
5:29:26PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK.
5:29:28PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.
5:29:28PM I THINK THE ANSWER FOR THE PRIVATE PARKING LOTS THAT CLOSE
5:29:32PM IS INSURANCE AND LIABILITY.
5:29:38PM THEY HAVE AN INCENTIVE TO CLOSE THEIR PARKING LOTS AFTER
5:29:42PM HOURS SO THAT THEY CANNOT BE USED BECAUSE IF THEY ARE USED,
5:29:46PM PEOPLE CAN SUE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS IN THEM.
5:29:49PM WOULD THAT BE ALONG THE RIGHT TRACK, MS. JOHNSON VELEZ?
5:29:54PM I SEE YOU'RE STANDING.
5:29:57PM I ASSUME YOU ARE LEGAL FOR THIS.
5:29:59PM >>SUSAN JOHNSON-VELEZ: LEGAL DEPARTMENT.
5:30:01PM I THINK THE PROPER DISTINCTION IS BETWEEN PRINCIPAL USE
5:30:04PM PARKING LOTS WHERE THE PARKING IS THE ACTUAL BUSINESS VERSUS
5:30:09PM AN ACCESSORY USE WHERE IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH A BUSINESS THAT
5:30:12PM MIGHT CLOSE AND PERHAPS MAJOR DiFELICE COULD TALK ABOUT
5:30:15PM THE DIFFERENCE IN WHAT TPD CAN DO ON A PARKING LOT WHERE
5:30:20PM SOMEBODY IS PRESENT AFTER A BUSINESS IS CLOSED.
5:30:22PM SO THERE'S CLEARLY NO BUSINESS TRANSACTION TAKING PLACE
5:30:26PM BECAUSE THE BUSINESS IS CLOSED VERSUS A PARKING LOT THAT'S
5:30:29PM OPEN JUST FOR PARKING, THERE MAY BE SOME UNCERTAINTY ABOUT
5:30:32PM THAT.
5:30:33PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I ACTUALLY DID WANT TO ASK MAJOR DiFELICE
5:30:37PM ABOUT, WE HAVE HEARD SOME RUMBLINGS ABOUT A SAFETY PLAN.
5:30:42PM YOU TOLD ME EARLIER THAT A SAFETY PLAN HAS BEEN DONE.
5:30:45PM CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THAT?
5:30:47PM >> YES.
5:30:47PM WE HAVE COMPLETED A SAFETY PLAN SPECIFICALLY FOR YBOR CITY.
5:30:51PM IT'S ALL-ENCOMPASSING, DOESN'T JUST INCLUDE PARKING LOTS AND
5:30:56PM OVERALL SAFETY AND SECURITY PLAN.
5:30:58PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WE DON'T HAVE TO WAIT ON THAT.
5:31:00PM THAT'S ALREADY OCCURRED.
5:31:01PM >> YES.
5:31:01PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.
5:31:03PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, SIR.
5:31:05PM >>LUIS VIERA: THANK YOU, EVERYBODY, FOR YOUR PRESENTATIONS.
5:31:09PM WE'VE GOTTEN OBVIOUSLY A LOT OF FEEDBACK ON THIS.
5:31:11PM I THINK THAT WITH THE PARKING LOT ISSUES, IT'S A BALANCE.
5:31:16PM COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN HAS MADE SOME POINTS THAT I'M
5:31:19PM SYMPATHETIC TO.
5:31:20PM MY BIG THING IS MAKING SURE WE HAVE AS MUCH SAFETY AND
5:31:23PM SECURITY FOR FOLKS IN YBOR CITY AND WITH PARKING LOTS.
5:31:27PM IF THERE ARE REASONABLE THINGS WE CAN DO THAT ARE NOT
5:31:29PM ARBITRARY THAT DON'T OVERLY BURDEN A PROPERTY OWNER, I'M FOR
5:31:33PM THAT.
5:31:33PM I'M GLAD COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK ALSO BROUGHT UP THE SAFETY PLAN
5:31:36PM FOR YBOR CITY BECAUSE I THINK THAT PROPERTY OWNERS ARE
5:31:40PM SAYING, LISTEN, WE'RE GLAD TO DO OUR SHARE, BUT WE WANT TO
5:31:44PM MAKE SURE WE ALSO HAVE THE CITY INVOLVED.
5:31:46PM AND, OF COURSE, THE CITY IS INVOLVED IN YBOR CITY ON PUBLIC
5:31:49PM SAFETY, BUT ALSO CARRY FORWARD BOTH CONVERSATIONS, WHAT
5:31:52PM PRIVATE PROPERTY OWNERS CAN DO WITH REGULATIONS AND THEN TO
5:31:55PM TALK ABOUT THE GREAT THINGS THAT TPD AND THE CITY IS DOING
5:31:59PM TO PREVENT CRIME AND TALK ABOUT VIOLENT CRIME IN YBOR CITY,
5:32:02PM ET CETERA.
5:32:02PM SO I THINK THOSE TWO THINGS HAVE GOT TO BE PUT FORWARD ONE
5:32:05PM WAY OR ANOTHER.
5:32:06PM I'M FINE WITH SOME REASONABLE REGULATION HERE.
5:32:10PM I UNDERSTAND THE ISSUE BETWEEN PAID AND UNPAID PARKING LOTS.
5:32:13PM I THINK THAT FOLKS, PROPERTY OWNERS ARE WILLING TO DO SOME
5:32:18PM REASONABLE REGULATION, PUBLIC SAFETY IN YBOR CITY.
5:32:24PM BUT THEY WANT TO HEAR ALSO A CITY PLAN FOR YBOR CITY AND
5:32:28PM MAYBE THAT WOULD BE SMART FOR US TO HAVE TO ADDRESS THOSE
5:32:31PM CONCERNS TO HAVE A BRIEFING FROM TPD SOMETIME IN THE NEXT
5:32:35PM FEW MONTHS ON THAT ISSUE.
5:32:37PM JUST MY THOUGHTS.
5:32:38PM THANK YOU.
5:32:41PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I DON'T DISAGREE WITH ANYTHING THAT HAS
5:32:43PM BEEN SAID.
5:32:44PM I'M HAVING A HARD TIME FIGURING OUT AS A GOVERNMENT ENTITY
5:32:47PM HOW WE BASICALLY HAVE A RULE FOR ONE AND NOT A RULE FOR ALL.
5:32:52PM I WOULD GET IT IF WE SAID OKAY THESE PRIVATE LOTS HAVE TO BE
5:32:55PM GATED AND CLOSED.
5:32:57PM IF THERE WAS A REQUIREMENT THAT THEY WERE GATED AND CLOSED,
5:32:59PM THEN I WOULD KIND OF UNDERSTAND IT.
5:33:01PM I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M MISSING HERE, BUT IT SEEMS WEIRD AS
5:33:04PM FAR AS PROPERTY RIGHTS AND WHY I WOULD IMPOSE SOMETHING ON
5:33:08PM ONE -- I MEAN, THAT PIECE OF ASPHALT, THE -- IN YBOR CITY.
5:33:20PM LIKE I SAY, I WOULD UNDERSTAND IT IF IT WAS GATED AND CLOSED
5:33:23PM THAT WE WOULD TREAT THEM DIFFERENTLY.
5:33:25PM IF IT IS JUST SITTING THERE WITH AN OPEN DRIVEWAY AND PEOPLE
5:33:29PM ARE ABLE TO PARK THERE, I WOULD THINK THE REQUIREMENTS WOULD
5:33:31PM BE THE SAME.
5:33:32PM >> IF I MAY JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE CLARIFICATION, WHEN YOU
5:33:35PM HAVE A LOT THAT IS FOR PROFIT AS OPPOSED TO THE OTHER, ALL
5:33:40PM OF THOSE SPACES ARE TYPICALLY FULL ON A BUSY NIGHT IN YBOR
5:33:44PM AND THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THERE.
5:33:46PM IN THE OTHER ONE, IF YOU PARK THERE, YOUR CAR WILL GET TOWED
5:33:49PM AND WON'T BE THERE.
5:33:51PM LIKEN THAT TO SOMEBODY'S DRIVEWAY THAT LIVES TWO BLOCKS
5:33:55PM AWAY.
5:33:55PM IT'S OPEN, BUT YOU CAN'T PARK THERE.
5:33:57PM IT'S PRIVATE PARTY.
5:33:58PM YOU DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO IT, BUT ON THE OTHER LOT YOU
5:34:01PM DO.
5:34:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I GET IT AND UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'RE TRYING
5:34:04PM TO DO.
5:34:05PM UNDERSTAND WE HAVE A REAL PROBLEM AND TRYING TO FIND THE
5:34:09PM BEST SOLUTION TO THAT PROBLEM.
5:34:12PM I ALSO WANT TO BE CONSISTENT AND INTELLECTUALLY CONSISTENT
5:34:16PM ACROSS THE VARIOUS PARTIES AGAIN AS THE GOVERNMENT
5:34:20PM AUTHORITY.
5:34:21PM I'M JUST NOT QUITE THERE YET.
5:34:23PM BUT I GET IT.
5:34:24PM I UNDERSTAND.
5:34:24PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYTHING ELSE?
5:34:25PM COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.
5:34:28PM >>BILL CARLSON: AT THE LAST MEETING, I MADE A MOTION
5:34:30PM RECOMMENDED BY MR. MICHELINI THAT WE DISCUSS A POSSIBILITY
5:34:35PM OF SAFETY AND SECURITY PLAN IN YBOR AND WE PUT IT ON
5:34:38PM SEPTEMBER 5.
5:34:39PM I CAN MODIFY THE MOTION LATER, BUT MAYBE TPD COULD JUST
5:34:43PM PRESENT THE PLAN ON THAT DAY INSTEAD.
5:34:45PM I ASSUME THAT'S WHAT THEY WOULD HAVE DONE ANYWAY.
5:34:51PM >>LUIS VIERA: I'LL SECOND THAT IF --
5:34:54PM >>BILL CARLSON: JUST TO MODIFY THE AGENDA ITEM ON SEPTEMBER
5:34:59PM 5th REGARDING THE YBOR CITY SAFETY AND SECURITY PLAN TO
5:35:04PM CONVERT IT TO A PRESENTATION BY TPD.
5:35:06PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.
5:35:08PM SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA.
5:35:10PM ALL IN FAVOR?
5:35:10PM AYE.
5:35:11PM ANY OPPOSED?
5:35:11PM YES, SIR.
5:35:13PM IS THERE MORE TO THE PRESENTATION?
5:35:15PM >>ERIC COTTON: THERE'S ONE MORE AMENDMENT.
5:35:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: GO AHEAD.
5:35:17PM >>ERIC COTTON: THIS IS THE LAST AMENDMENT.
5:35:21PM SECTION 27-132.
5:35:23PM THIS WAS A MOTION FROM COUNCIL IN MARCH.
5:35:27PM THIS WAS TO ALLOW FOR THE SALE OF ALCOHOL FROM PROPERTY
5:35:34PM THAT'S SPECIFICALLY FOR A PROFESSIONAL TEAM, PROFESSIONAL
5:35:38PM SPORTS TEAM.
5:35:40PM THIS WOULD BE AN ANNUAL PERMIT THAT WOULD BE PROCESSED BY
5:35:45PM THE LAND DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION OFFICE.
5:35:47PM THESE ARE BASICALLY PART OF A PROFESSIONAL SPORTS TEAM HAS
5:35:51PM TO BE ON PROPERTY THAT'S OWNED BY A GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY,
5:35:54PM MINIMUM OF 15 ACRES.
5:35:56PM SALE IS ONLY ON MATCH GAMES, WHATEVER DAYS, SCHEDULED GAME
5:36:02PM IS THE ONLY TIME THEY CAN ACTUALLY SELL THE ALCOHOL.
5:36:04PM ALL SALES OF ALCOHOL WOULD CEASE NO LATER THAN MIDNIGHT.
5:36:09PM IF THE ALCOHOL -- IF THE TEAM WERE TO STOP PLAYING OR MOVE
5:36:15PM TO ANOTHER LOCATION, IF THERE WERE ANY REMAINING TIME LEFT
5:36:19PM ON IT, THE ALCOHOL SALES WOULD CEASE TO EXIST.
5:36:22PM THE PERMIT WOULD BE REPEALED, SO TO SPEAK.
5:36:24PM IF IT'S ON CITY PROPERTY, IT'S GOING TO BE -- IT'S GOING TO
5:36:33PM REQUIRE THE MAYOR'S AUTHORIZATION, WHICH SHE DOES NOW FOR
5:36:36PM PARKS AND STUFF WHEN -- NOT CURRENTLY WET ZONED. THAT
5:36:40PM BRINGS US UP TO ALMOST WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW.
5:36:42PM THIS IS FIRST READING ON JUNE 27.
5:36:48PM DEPENDING UPON ACTIONS TONIGHT, IF COUNCIL MOVES ALL THE
5:36:53PM AGENDA ITEMS OR TEXT AMENDMENTS, THE NEXT READING WOULD BE
5:36:56PM ON JULY 18 FOR THE ADOPTION.
5:36:58PM WHEN YOU COME BACK FROM YOUR SUMMER BREAK.
5:37:00PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
5:37:01PM ANYTHING ELSE, MA'AM?
5:37:05PM >> JUST WANTED TO MENTION ON THE SECTION RELATING TO THE
5:37:08PM ALCOHOL PERMIT, BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING, IF WE GET
5:37:11PM TO THAT POINT, WE HAVE A SMALL TWEAK TO MAKE JUST TO CLARIFY
5:37:14PM IT IS AN ANNUAL PERMIT IN THE ORDINANCE.
5:37:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
5:37:18PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU.
5:37:19PM I'M NOT AGAINST SPORTS TEAM OR ANYBODY SELLING ALCOHOL LIKE
5:37:22PM THAT, BUT IT SEEMS TO ME CONTRADICTORY, THE FACT THAT YOU
5:37:27PM ARE THERE WATCHING AN EVENT, THEY HAVE AN HOUR, TO SAY AT
5:37:30PM THIS HOUR WE STOP SERVING.
5:37:32PM AM I RIGHT OR WRONG?
5:37:33PM >>ERIC COTTON: THAT WOULD BE CORRECT.
5:37:34PM IF IT WAS A NIGHT GAME.
5:37:35PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: -- WHEN THE GAME IS OVER TO SELL MORE
5:37:38PM ALCOHOL?
5:37:41PM >>ERIC COTTON: NO.
5:37:42PM IT'S ONLY DURING THE GAME ITSELF.
5:37:43PM I DON'T BELIEVE THE INTENT IS TO HAVE THE GAME END AT 4:00
5:37:46PM AND KEEP --
5:37:47PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: -- SIXTH OR SEVENTH INNING THEY TELL YOU
5:37:50PM LAST CALL AND FOOTBALL SAME THING.
5:37:56PM >>ERIC COTTON: IF COUNCIL WANTS TO MAKE THAT --
5:37:58PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: LIABILITY OF THE CITY OR THE SPORTS TEAM?
5:38:01PM >>ERIC COTTON: THE SPORTS TEAM.
5:38:02PM THEY HAVE TO CARRY INSURANCE.
5:38:03PM LIKE THE TEMPORARY B PERMITS COUNCIL GETS, WHEN IT'S ON
5:38:07PM PUBLIC PROPERTY, HAVE TO HAVE THE MILLION DOLLARS OF
5:38:09PM INSURANCE.
5:38:09PM THEY'LL HAVE TO HAVE THE SAME INSURANCE.
5:38:15PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ALL RIGHT.
5:38:16PM ANYBODY HERE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT?
5:38:18PM WE HAVE QUITE A FEW PEOPLE REGISTERED.
5:38:20PM I'LL GO DOWN THE LIST.
5:38:22PM IF YOU ARE HERE, STEPHANIE HARRIS BAILEY, DAVID BAILEY,
5:38:26PM COREY BROWN, FRANK RODRIGUEZ AND JENNIFER PACKING A BEN.
5:38:32PM ARE ANY OF THOSE PEOPLE HERE?
5:38:34PM STEPHANIE AND DAVID ARE HERE.
5:38:38PM AND ANYBODY ELSE?
5:38:38PM THEN COREY BROWN, FRANK RODRIGUEZ AND JENNIFER ONLINE.
5:38:47PM >> YES, CORRECT.
5:38:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I'LL START WITH THE IN-PERSON PEOPLE.
5:38:50PM I DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE DUPLICATE NAMES.
5:38:52PM IF YOU ARE HERE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS ITEM, ITEM NUMBER
5:38:55PM 2, PLEASE COME UP.
5:38:57PM YOU'LL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK.
5:38:59PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:38:59PM COME ON UP.
5:39:01PM YES, SIR.
5:39:02PM >> GOOD EVENING.
5:39:04PM DAVID BAILEY.
5:39:04PM I LIVE IN HISTORIC YBOR CITY.
5:39:06PM FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR HAVING THIS AT AN EVENING
5:39:09PM SESSION.
5:39:09PM IT'S REALLY DIFFICULT FOR US TO PARTICIPATE DURING THE DAY.
5:39:13PM I GOT TO START WITH THE HEAD-SCRATCHER BECAUSE APRIL 18, WE
5:39:17PM CAME TO YOU.
5:39:18PM IT WAS CLEAR THAT WE WANTED TO MEET WITH ZONING TO TALK
5:39:20PM ABOUT THIS LANGUAGE.
5:39:23PM COUNCILMAN CARLSON OBSERVED THAT AND RECOMMENDED THAT ZONING
5:39:28PM MEET WITH US AND TWO AND A HALF MONTHS LATER, THERE'S BEEN
5:39:31PM NO MEETING.
5:39:31PM SO WE'RE VERY DISAPPOINTED BY THAT.
5:39:34PM WE HAVE SPECIFIC CONCERNS IN THE PROCESS AND WE WANT TO BE
5:39:38PM HEARD, AND WE GO TO A PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING AND WE
5:39:41PM FIND OUT THAT THEY MET WITH PARKING LOT OPERATORS BUT NOT
5:39:44PM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
5:39:46PM SO THAT'S PROBLEMATIC.
5:39:48PM REGARDING THE LANGUAGE, ABSOLUTELY YES TO SECURITY IN THESE
5:39:53PM LOTS.
5:39:54PM YOU'VE SEEN THE DATA.
5:39:55PM YOU'VE HEARD THE DATA, AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA THROUGH
5:40:01PM ANOTHER LAYER, IT'S ACTUALLY WORSE THAN IT LOOKS LIKE.
5:40:04PM WE'RE COMPARING PARKING LOTS TO PARKING LOTS.
5:40:07PM BUT WHAT WE SHOULD BE COMPARING IS PARKING SPACES.
5:40:10PM CENTRO YBOR PARKING GARAGE HAS OVER 1200 SPACES.
5:40:13PM THE NORIEGA GARAGE ALSO OVER 1200 SPACES.
5:40:17PM SO YOU HAVE THREE TIMES AS MANY CITY PARKING SPACES IN YBOR
5:40:22PM CITY THAN YOU DO THE PRIVATE PARKING SPACES AND YET THEY
5:40:26PM HAVE MORE CRIME.
5:40:27PM SO WE KNOW WHAT BAR THE CITY IS SETTING.
5:40:30PM THE CITY IS SETTING THE BAR FOR SECURITY.
5:40:33PM IT'S WORKING.
5:40:34PM THE CITY IS SETTING THE BAR FOR LANDSCAPING.
5:40:36PM IT'S WORKING.
5:40:37PM THE CITY IS SETTING THE BAR FOR FENCING.
5:40:40PM IT'S WORKING.
5:40:41PM WE SHOULD BE DOING THAT FOR THESE PRIVATE LOTS AS WELL.
5:40:44PM OUR ASSOCIATION HAS A SEAT ON THE CAC ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR
5:40:50PM YBOR CITY.
5:40:50PM WE TALK TO TPD ON A REGULAR BASIS AND MAJOR DiFELICE IS
5:40:55PM THERE AS WELL.
5:40:56PM AND PARAPHRASING WHAT WE'VE HEARD IS THAT THIS IS A
5:41:00PM PERSONNEL ISSUE.
5:41:02PM IF YOU HAVE TPD HAVING TO SCURRY INTO SOUTH YBOR AND DEAL
5:41:06PM WITH ALL THE TROUBLED LOTS, THAT'S TAKING VITAL PERSONNEL
5:41:09PM OFF OF CORE ISSUES, HIGHER RESPONSIBILITIES AND MORE
5:41:12PM IMPORTANT THINGS.
5:41:12PM FOR US, IT'S A NO-BRAINER.
5:41:15PM IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT SEEMS TO MAKE SENSE.
5:41:17PM THIS CRIME AND THIS NOISE ARE SOMETHING THAT WE'VE BEEN
5:41:20PM DEALING WITH ON THE RECORD FOR 30 YEARS.
5:41:26PM RECENTLY WE DUG UP SOME 2007 MEETING MINUTES FROM A MEETING
5:41:34PM ON THIS TOPIC.
5:41:35PM AND WE SENT THESE TO COUNCILMAN MIRANDA AND IT GOES TO SHOW
5:41:40PM LIKE HOW LONG WE'VE BEEN DRAGGING OUR FEET ON THIS ISSUE.
5:41:43PM I ALREADY MENTIONED THE LANDSCAPING.
5:41:46PM LOOK AT THE ARTURO FUENTE PARKING LOT ON 3rd AVENUE AND
5:41:52PM 21st.
5:41:52PM I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SAY, THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL PARKING LOT, BUT
5:41:56PM IT IS.
5:41:56PM AND YET WE ALLOW THIS LAKE OF ASPHALT TO SIT WHERE THE BLUE
5:42:01PM RIBBON GROCER USED TO BE ON 7th AVENUE.
5:42:05PM IT'S DISGRACEFUL.
5:42:07PM TO SAY THAT WE'RE GOING TO ALLOW THAT TO CONTINUE AND REMOVE
5:42:09PM LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS IS BEYOND ME.
5:42:11PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
5:42:12PM ALL RIGHT.
5:42:13PM NEXT SPEAKER.
5:42:14PM YES, MA'AM, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:42:18PM >> HELLO.
5:42:19PM STEPHANIE HARRISON BAILEY HERE, YBOR RESIDENT.
5:42:22PM I WILL TRY NOT TO ECHO AND BE REPETITIVE.
5:42:28PM I ALSO SUBMITTED A LETTER TO YOU ALL YESTERDAY GOING OVER
5:42:32PM LIKE THE SPECIFIC KIND OF LINE-BY-LINE CONCERNS THAT THE
5:42:36PM NEIGHBORHOOD HAS FOR THE PROPOSED CODE CHANGES.
5:42:38PM HOWEVER, WE ARE GENERALLY VERY MUCH IN FAVOR OF THESE CODE
5:42:42PM CHANGES.
5:42:43PM SECURITY, LIKE DAVID SAID, IS A NO-BRAINER.
5:42:46PM BUT I THINK THERE'S THREE HUGE REQUESTS THAT WE FEEL LIKE
5:42:50PM REALLY NEED TO BE MET BEFORE WE CAN MOVE FORWARD.
5:42:53PM NUMBER ONE AS DAVID ALLUDED TO, WE WOULD REALLY LIKE TO MEET
5:42:57PM WITH CITY STAFF SO WE CAN GET ON THE SAME PAGE BEFORE WE
5:43:00PM COME BACK FOR SECOND READING SO THAT WE CAN BE HERE IN FULL
5:43:03PM SUPPORT AND NOT HAVE TO HAVE THESE CONVERSATIONS BACK AND
5:43:06PM FORTH ANYMORE.
5:43:07PM NUMBER TWO, WE REALLY REQUEST THAT THE CITY AUDITOR EACH AND
5:43:10PM EVERY PARKING LOT THAT EXISTS RIGHT NOW, NOT ONLY FOR
5:43:14PM ADHERENCE TO THE CURRENT CODE, BUT ALSO TO MAKE SURE IT'S
5:43:17PM LEGAL BECAUSE WHAT WE HAVE FOUND IS THAT OVER THE COURSE OF
5:43:20PM THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, SINCE WE'VE BEEN DIGGING IN ON THIS,
5:43:23PM WE'VE PRESENTED LOTS OF LOTS TO THE CITY THAT THEY DIDN'T
5:43:25PM EVEN KNOW EXISTED.
5:43:27PM WE'RE JUST NOT CLEAR WHERE THESE LOTS LAND.
5:43:30PM AND IT SEEMS LIKE IN THE PROPOSED CODE, THEY ARE KIND OF
5:43:34PM GRANDFATHERING EVERY LOT IN AS BEING AS OF RIGHT AND WE'RE
5:43:38PM NOT REALLY SURE THAT'S CORRECT.
5:43:40PM LASTLY, WE REALLY, REALLY ASK THE CITY TO IMMEDIATELY BEGIN
5:43:44PM CREATING A PLAN FOR ENFORCEMENT OF THE EXISTING CODE RIGHT
5:43:48PM NOW AND THEN OBVIOUSLY THE CODE AS IT HOPEFULLY GETS ADOPTED
5:43:52PM AND UPDATED.
5:43:53PM YBOR HAS BEEN PLAGUED BY POORLY MANAGED SURFACE LOTS SINCE
5:43:58PM BEFORE 2000.
5:43:59PM THE CURRENT CODE WAS ADOPTED IN 2010, BUT PRACTICALLY
5:44:02PM NOTHING HAS CHANGED WITH THESE PARKING LOTS BECAUSE THAT
5:44:04PM CODE WAS NEVER ENFORCED.
5:44:06PM I HAVE TO ASK, WHAT IS THE POINT OF UPDATING THE CODE IF
5:44:09PM TAMPA HAS NO MEANS OR DESIRE TO ENFORCE IT?
5:44:11PM IT SEEMS SILLY TO GIVE MS. FEELEY AND ERIC COTTON THIS GIANT
5:44:16PM TASK FOR NO REASON.
5:44:17PM BUT I UNDERSTAND IT'S NOT ON THEIR DEPARTMENT TO DEAL WITH
5:44:19PM THE ENFORCEMENT SIDE OF THINGS.
5:44:20PM REGARDING THE CURRENT CODE AROUND PARKING LOT ATTENDANTS AND
5:44:24PM IN THE FUTURE HOPEFULLY LICENSED SECURITY, RESIDENTS HAVE
5:44:27PM BEEN TOLD REPEATEDLY BY CODE ENFORCEMENT THAT THEY ARE NOT
5:44:29PM INTERESTED IN PATROLLING OUR DISTRICT INTO THE WEE HOURS ON
5:44:33PM WEEKENDS.
5:44:34PM IF THEY DID, THEY WOULD NEED TPD PROTECTION.
5:44:36PM WHY?
5:44:36PM LIKE ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS CRUISE BY IN THEIR CAR.
5:44:39PM THEY DON'T HAVE TO GET OUT.
5:44:40PM THEY DON'T HAVE TO INTERACT WITH ANYTHING WITH THE PARKING
5:44:43PM LOTS.
5:44:44PM IT SEEMS LIKE IF IT'S ON US AS RESIDENTS TO LIVE IN THE AREA
5:44:47PM AND FEEL OKAY ABOUT IT, IT SHOULD BE ON CODE ENFORCEMENT TO
5:44:51PM JUST ENFORCE WHAT HAPPENS WITHOUT GETTING OUT OF THEIR CARS.
5:44:56PM I'D JUST LIKE TO RESPECTFULLY REMIND EVERYBODY THAT YBOR
5:45:00PM CITY IS A NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARK DISTRICT, THE ONLY ONE
5:45:04PM IN TAMPA.
5:45:04PM WE SHOULD BE PRESENTING THIS NEIGHBORHOOD TO BOTH RESIDENTS
5:45:08PM AND VISITORS AS THE BEAUTIFUL HISTORIC JEWEL THAT IT IS.
5:45:10PM BUT RIGHT NOW, YBOR CONTINUES TO BE PLAGUED WITH
5:45:12PM TRASH-FILLED, POORLY MAINTAINED AND CRIME RIDDEN SURFACE
5:45:16PM PARKING LOTS WHOSE OPERATORS HAVE MADE IT CLEAR THEY DO NOT
5:45:20PM INTEND TO ABIDE BY THE CODE EITHER WHAT IS ON THE BOOKS NOW
5:45:22PM OR WHAT MIGHT BE IN THE FUTURE.
5:45:23PM I INVITE CITY COUNCIL TO START HOLDING RESPONSIBLE PARTIES
5:45:28PM TO ACCOUNT.
5:45:29PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK?
5:45:31PM YES, SIR.
5:45:35PM >> CHRIS CURRY.
5:45:36PM THANKS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK, COUNCIL.
5:45:39PM I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT THAT THE CITY OF TAMPA PROVIDES
5:45:43PM PARKING AND DOES A REALLY GOOD JOB.
5:45:45PM THE PRIVATE PARKING LOTS THAT ARE OPERATING IN YBOR CITY ARE
5:45:49PM NOT DOING OR PROVIDING SERVICES TO THE PUBLIC IN A BETTER,
5:45:53PM FASTER, CHEAPER WAY THAN WHAT THE CITY IS DOING.
5:45:55PM THE LOTS COMPETE WITH ONE OF THE VERY FEW REVENUE STREAMS
5:46:00PM AND ALL OF THE RESIDENTS ARE ASKING FOR -- ALL THAT WE'RE
5:46:03PM ASKING FOR, ACTUALLY, IS FOR PRIVATE PARKING LOTS TO FOLLOW
5:46:07PM THE SAME STANDARDS AS THE ONE FOLLOWED BY THE CITY.
5:46:10PM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN MENTIONED THAT A PARKING LOT IS A
5:46:12PM PARKING LOT.
5:46:13PM IT ACTUALLY ISN'T.
5:46:15PM PRIVATE NONPAID PARKING LOTS LIKE THE COLUMBIA ARE FOR
5:46:18PM PATRONS ONLY, LIKE MAJOR DiFELICE MENTIONED, IF YOU PARK
5:46:21PM THERE AND LEAVE, THE CAR GETS TOWED.
5:46:23PM PAID LOTS, ONCE YOU PAY, YOU ARE GOOD, YOU CAN DO WHATEVER
5:46:26PM YOU WANT BECAUSE YOU ARE ON PRIVATE PROPERTY AND NO ONE CAN
5:46:28PM SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
5:46:29PM AS A RESIDENT, I CAN PERSONALLY TELL YOU THAT THE PROBLEMS
5:46:31PM THAT WE'RE SEEING, PARTYING, DRINKING, LOUD MUSIC, ARE NOT
5:46:35PM HAPPENING IN CITY-RUN LOTS FOR SURE AND THEY ARE NOT
5:46:37PM HAPPENING IN CLOTS LIKE THE COLUMBIA THAT ARE ATTACHED TO A
5:46:40PM BUSINESS.
5:46:40PM THE MAJORITY OF THE PRIVATE PAID PARKING LOTS ARE NOT IN
5:46:44PM COMPLIANCE CURRENTLY WITH THE CODE IN TERMS OF ATTENDANCE,
5:46:48PM SIGNAGE, LANDSCAPING, ET CETERA.
5:46:49PM AND PROVIDING THESE BASIC MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS ARE THE COST
5:46:54PM OF DOING BUSINESS.
5:46:55PM SHOULDN'T BE ASKING FOR THE CITY OR TAXPAYERS TO PAY FOR
5:46:57PM THINGS THAT THEY ARE REQUIRED TO DO WITH THEIR BUSINESS.
5:47:00PM I THINK WE SHOULD ALL BE ASKING OURSELVES WHAT MORE WE COULD
5:47:03PM DO TO ENHANCE YBOR CITY, NOT WHAT'S THE BARE MINIMUM THAT WE
5:47:06PM HAVE TO DO AND CAN WE GET AWAY WITH DOING SLIGHTLY LESS THAN
5:47:10PM THAT.
5:47:10PM THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
5:47:11PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
5:47:12PM YES, MA'AM.
5:47:13PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:47:15PM >> HI.
5:47:16PM CARROLL ANN BENNETT.
5:47:17PM I THOUGHT I SIGNED UP TO SPEAK.
5:47:19PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I WAS READING THE VIRTUAL REGISTERED
5:47:21PM SPEAKERS.
5:47:22PM >> OH, ALL RIGHT.
5:47:23PM ALL RIGHT.
5:47:24PM I JUST WANT TO SAY AS THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THAN AND
5:47:29PM NEIGHBORHOOD LEADER THAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAN HAS FOUGHT
5:47:32PM VERY HARD FOR IS FOR NEIGHBORHOODS TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY
5:47:35PM TO MEET WITH THE PEOPLE WHO IMPACT THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD,
5:47:37PM WHETHER THE BUILDERS, DEVELOPERS, CITY STAFF, WHATEVER.
5:47:41PM IT'S VERY CONCERNING TO ME TO HEAR OF A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT'S
5:47:44PM HAVING SO MUCH TROUBLE ACHIEVING THAT.
5:47:46PM I HOPE SOMETHING CAN BE DONE.
5:47:48PM I DON'T WANT TO BELABOR THE POINTS.
5:47:51PM THEY STATED IT VERY WELL.
5:47:52PM IT SEEMS LIKE THE THREE ASKS ARE VERY, VERY REASONABLE.
5:47:56PM MEET WITH CITY STAFF, AUDIT EACH PARKING LOT AND OBVIOUSLY
5:48:00PM ENFORCEMENT.
5:48:00PM THE CITY KNOWS HOW TO HAVE SAFE PARKING LOTS.
5:48:05PM SO PRIVATE OWNERSHIP SHOULD NOT MEAN DANGEROUS OWNERSHIP.
5:48:11PM THANK YOU.
5:48:11PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, MA'AM.
5:48:12PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
5:48:12PM NEXT SPEAKER.
5:48:15PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:48:16PM >> GOOD EVENING.
5:48:17PM STEPHANIE POYNOR.
5:48:18PM I CAN TOTALLY BELIEVE THAT STEPHANIE HARRISON AND HER
5:48:23PM FRIENDS FOUND EXTRA PARKING LOTS NOBODY KNEW ABOUT BECAUSE
5:48:28PM WE DON'T KNOW HOW MANY HOUSES WE'RE BUILDING IN THE CITY,
5:48:30PM WHY WOULD WE KNOW HOW MANY PARKING LOTS WE HAVE.
5:48:33PM UNIDENTIFIED LOTS, ARE THEY GOING TO BE TAXED ACCORDINGLY
5:48:35PM AND DO THEY HAVE A BUSINESS LICENSE IN THE CITY OF TAMPA?
5:48:37PM WE'RE REQUIRED TO HAVE ONE IF WE'RE A LANDLORD.
5:48:40PM IF YOU WERE CHARGING PEOPLE TO PARK ON YOUR PROPERTY, HOW
5:48:43PM CAN YOU NOT?
5:48:44PM IT SEEMS LIKE -- YOU KNOW, I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE.
5:48:47PM I HAVE ISSUES WITH RULES FOR THE CITY THAT NEVER GET
5:48:52PM ENFORCED.
5:48:52PM IF THERE'S TRASH IN THE LOTS, OH, MY GOODNESS, WHERE IS CODE
5:48:56PM ENFORCEMENT?
5:48:57PM IT'S PART OF THEIR JOB.
5:48:59PM YOU KNOW WHAT?
5:48:59PM IF THERE IS TRASH THERE AT 3:00 IN THE MORNING, GUARANTEE
5:49:03PM YOU IT'S THERE AT 7 AND 8 AND 10.
5:49:06PM I'M HERE TONIGHT BECAUSE THE FOLKS WHO ARE SITTING HERE WHO
5:49:09PM ARE PART OF THIS NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION HAVE E-MAILED THAN
5:49:13PM REGULARLY REQUESTING THESE THINGS.
5:49:17PM AS A MATTER OF FACT I SENT THEM TO CHIEF BENNETT.
5:49:19PM GOT A RESPONSE FROM ABBYE FEELEY THAT WAS OKAY, BUT IT STILL
5:49:24PM DIDN'T HAPPEN.
5:49:25PM MEETINGS DIDN'T HAPPEN.
5:49:26PM THE NEIGHBORHOOD HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED IN THIS SITUATION.
5:49:28PM AND THAT IS RATHER DISCONCERTING TO ME BECAUSE IT'S MY
5:49:32PM UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU GUYS HAVE THE EXPECTATION THAT WHEN
5:49:34PM THINGS LIKE THIS ARE TAKING PLACE THAT CITY STAFF IS
5:49:38PM SUPPOSED TO MEET WITH THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND THE PEOPLE WHO
5:49:40PM ARE THE MOST IMPACTED.
5:49:43PM I GET UP HERE AND I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, BUT I DON'T HAVE
5:49:46PM A PROBLEM WITH PARKING LOTS NEXT TO MY HOUSE.
5:49:48PM I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH OUR NEIGHBORHOODS NOT BEING ADDRESSED
5:49:52PM WHEN WE'RE CHANGING THE CODE.
5:49:53PM IF YOU'RE GOING TO CHANGE THE CODE, YOU NEED TO MEET WITH
5:49:57PM THE NEIGHBORS.
5:49:58PM IT'S JUST THAT SIMPLE.
5:50:00PM THANK YOU.
5:50:01PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, MA'AM.
5:50:02PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
5:50:02PM YES, SIR.
5:50:03PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:50:07PM >> STEVE MICHELINI.
5:50:08PM I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF ACCARDI PROPERTIES.
5:50:13PM AS YOU KNOW, I SENT A COUPLE OF E-MAILS REGARDING PAID
5:50:17PM VERSUS UNPAID LOTS.
5:50:19PM AND WE DID A LITTLE DIAGRAM, WHICH I THINK WILL ILLUSTRATE
5:50:24PM WHY IT'S IMPORTANT TO HAVE THOSE REGULATIONS APPLY ACROSS
5:50:28PM THE BOARD.
5:50:29PM THE RED ARE UNPAID LOTS.
5:50:33PM GREEN ARE PAID LOTS.
5:50:34PM THAT'S ONE OF THEM.
5:50:40PM HERE'S ANOTHER ONE.
5:50:43PM AND YOU HAVE THESE.
5:50:46PM I'VE E-MAILED THESE TO YOU.
5:50:47PM YOU ALSO HAVE THIS.
5:50:49PM YOU CAN'T DISTINGUISH BETWEEN PAID AND UNPAID LOTS.
5:50:53PM THE REGULATIONS DO NOT APPLY ACROSS THE BOARD.
5:50:57PM CRIME DOESN'T STOP AT SOME IMAGINABLE PROPERTY VALUE, SOME
5:51:03PM PROPERTY LINE.
5:51:03PM WE'VE BEEN ASKING FOR SEVERAL WEEKS, IF NOT MONTHS FOR THE
5:51:08PM SAFETY AND SECURITY PLAN.
5:51:10PM FIRST WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS ONE.
5:51:11PM THEN WE WERE TOLD THERE WASN'T ONE.
5:51:13PM AND I'M HAPPY TO HEAR THAT THERE IS ONE.
5:51:16PM BUT THAT PLAN HAS NOT BEEN PRESENTED OFFICIALLY TO CITY
5:51:19PM COUNCIL, NOR HAS IT BEEN SHARED WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS TO
5:51:23PM KNOW WHAT THAT SECURITY PLAN INCLUDES.
5:51:24PM THAT'S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.
5:51:27PM WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE AND WHAT THE
5:51:31PM RULES ARE.
5:51:33PM IN ORDER TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR ANY CRA FUNDS, THAT PLAN HAS TO
5:51:36PM COME TO CITY COUNCIL.
5:51:37PM AND THE CRA FUNDS, OUR RECOMMENDATION WITH DISCUSSION WITH
5:51:43PM STAFF WAS TO SUPPLEMENT TPD AND TO RELIEVE SOME OF THE
5:51:46PM PRESSURE ON THE GENERAL FUND, NOT TO HAVE THE OFFICERS PAY
5:51:51PM FOR IT, BUT THERE WERE OTHER ITEMS THAT COULD BE PAID FOR.
5:51:55PM I HAVE A COUPLE OF DOCUMENTS I'D LIKE TO HAVE RECEIVED AND
5:51:57PM FILED, WHICH I'VE SENT TO YOU AS E-MAILS.
5:52:00PM THE CPTED STANDARDS -- AND I'VE ALSO INCLUDED THAT IN THE
5:52:05PM E-MAIL -- THEY SAY THAT THE ISSUE IS TERRITORIAL.
5:52:10PM IT'S NOT SINGULAR TO ANY INDIVIDUAL LOT REGARDLESS OF THE
5:52:13PM SIZE OF IT.
5:52:14PM AND IT HAS TO BE CONTROLLED BY THE TERRITORY AND NOT BY THE
5:52:18PM INDIVIDUAL -- INDIVIDUAL SPACE.
5:52:21PM THE PROPERTY OWNERS ARE NOT OPPOSED TO THE LANDSCAPING OR
5:52:24PM THE BUFFERING OR THE FENCING AND THINGS LIKE THAT, BUT APPLY
5:52:29PM IT ACROSS THE BOARD.
5:52:31PM WE DO HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT BEING INDIVIDUALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR
5:52:34PM SECURITY.
5:52:35PM THAT IS AN AREA-WIDE ISSUE AND NOT A SPECIFIC PROPERTY
5:52:38PM ISSUE.
5:52:39PM WE TALKED ABOUT A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT THINGS, BUT WE
5:52:44PM APPRECIATE THE MOTION FROM LAST WEEK FOR THAT CPTED -- I
5:52:48PM MEAN FOR THE SECURITY PLAN TO BE STUDIED AND PRESENTED.
5:52:51PM BUT IN THE MEANTIME, DON'T MOVE THIS THING FORWARD UNTIL WE
5:52:58PM HAVE A CHANCE TO KNOW WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO.
5:52:59PM THE REGULATIONS THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED HAVE NOT BEEN FULLY
5:53:07PM VETTED, TO MY KNOWLEDGE, MY TPD TO EVEN DETERMINE WHETHER OR
5:53:11PM NOT A PRIVATE SECURITY IS GOING TO BE ACCEPTABLE AND
5:53:14PM ADEQUATE TO PRESENT -- PREVENT SOME OF THE CRIME.
5:53:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
5:53:18PM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN AND COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
5:53:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I JUST HAD A QUESTION.
5:53:25PM THE MAPS THAT YOU PUT UP, DOES THAT -- THAT'S NOT THE ENTIRE
5:53:31PM BARRIO --
5:53:33PM >>STEVE MICHELINI: NO, THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE EVERYTHING.
5:53:35PM IT INCLUDES MOST OF THE PROPERTIES THAT ARE ADJACENT TO
5:53:38PM 7th AVENUE IN AND AROUND 7th AVENUE.
5:53:41PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: INCLUDES ALL THE PROPERTIES THAT WOULD BE
5:53:43PM PART OF THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE.
5:53:46PM >>STEVE MICHELINI: NO.
5:53:48PM 21st STREET ON 7th AVENUE DOWN --
5:53:52PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I'M GOING TO ASK -- I WANT TO KNOW EXACTLY
5:53:59PM WHAT WE HAVE OUT THERE.
5:54:01PM >>LYNN HURTAK: MS. FEELEY GAVE US MAPS LAST TIME.
5:54:04PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: OF UNPAID LOTS.
5:54:06PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OF ALL OF THEM.
5:54:09PM THAT WAS PART OF THEIR PRESENTATION.
5:54:10PM >>STEVE MICHELINI: THE COUNCIL HAS MADE MOTIONS THAT THE
5:54:13PM RULES SHOULD APPLY TO PAID AND UNPAID LOTS BEFORE, AND THEN
5:54:18PM WHEN ABBYE FEELEY CAME IN, SHE SAID, WELL, WE -- INCLUDE IT
5:54:21PM IN THIS TEXT AMENDMENT CYCLE.
5:54:27PM MY QUESTION IS, WHY SHOULD WE BE BURDENED BEFORE IT CAN BE
5:54:29PM IMPLEMENTED?
5:54:30PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
5:54:31PM WE HAVE THREE MORE SPEAKERS.
5:54:36PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I JUST WANT TO SAY, I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW
5:54:38PM FAR BACK IT WAS, BUT IT WAS SOMETIME 10, 15 YEARS AGO, I
5:54:43PM GUESS.
5:54:44PM GLORIA MOREDA WAS THE LADY WHO HANDLED THIS FOR THE CITY.
5:54:47PM I DON'T KNOW IF WE CAN TAKE UP THOSE RECORDS BECAUSE I DON'T
5:54:50PM WANT TO TALK FROM MEMORY FROM 10, 15 YEARS AGO.
5:54:53PM BUT IF I RECALL, ALL LOTS CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME, FORGOT
5:54:57PM WHAT THE TIME WAS THAT THE CITY GAVE, SUPPOSED TO BE UP TO
5:55:00PM -- STANDARDS.
5:55:01PM I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT STANDARD WAS.
5:55:03PM THE ONLY WAY WE'LL FIND OUT, CHECK THE RECORDS THAT THE CITY
5:55:06PM HAS SOMEWHERE ON FILE AND GO BACK AND REVIEW THEM.
5:55:09PM WHAT HAPPENED.
5:55:10PM IT WAS TWO LARGE MEETINGS THAT LASTED FOR SOME PERIOD OF
5:55:15PM TIME.
5:55:16PM IT WAS ABOUT CHANGING THIS, IN OR OUT.
5:55:21PM TWO OR THREE PROPERTIES GOT OUT.
5:55:23PM I DON'T REMEMBER ALL OF IT.
5:55:24PM I REMEMBER THERE WAS A CONVERSATION AND GLORIA MOREDA WAS
5:55:26PM THE ONE REPRESENTING ON BEHALF OF THE CITY, AND DURING SOME
5:55:30PM TIME OF THE CONVERSATION WHAT MICHELINI SAID IS RIGHT,
5:55:34PM THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE BROUGHT TO SOME STANDARD OF HAVING
5:55:37PM IRRIGATION AND HAVING WHATEVER IT WAS AND SECURITY AND
5:55:39PM WHATEVER.
5:55:40PM BUT I'M NOT HERE TO SAY THAT I KNOW BECAUSE I DON'T REMEMBER
5:55:43PM ALL OF IT.
5:55:44PM WHAT SHE SAID, THAT'S GOT TO BE SOMEWHERE IN THE LIBRARY OR
5:55:48PM SOMEWHERE IN THE FILES SOMEWHERE.
5:55:50PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK.
5:55:52PM >>LYNN HURTAK: SINCE WE'RE GOING TO TALK, I'LL ASK MAJOR
5:55:55PM DiFELICE TO COME UP.
5:55:56PM THANK YOU SO MUCH, MR. MICHELINI.
5:55:58PM DOES TPD HAVE THE RESOURCES TO POLICE THE ENTIRE, ALL OF THE
5:56:12PM PARKING LOTS?
5:56:14PM >> IT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT WE COULD DO SUSTAINABLY OR
5:56:18PM PROBABLY BE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE.
5:56:20PM I THINK THAT WE HAVE TWO DIFFERENT ISSUES WE'RE TALKING
5:56:22PM ABOUT, AND ONE OF THEM IS EXACTLY THAT.
5:56:26PM ARE WE ABLE TO HAVE THE MANPOWER PERSONNEL TO POLICE THOSE
5:56:30PM LOTS?
5:56:31PM WE AS THE EXPERTS IN CRIME ARE SAYING THAT THAT CAN BE
5:56:34PM ACCOMPLISHED WITH A SECURITY PERSON, WHICH WOULD BE AT A
5:56:37PM SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER COST, WHICH WE HAVE PROVEN THROUGH OUR
5:56:40PM SECURITY THAT WE HAVE AT OUR OWN LOTS THAT IS EFFECTIVE.
5:56:43PM SO COULD WE DO IT?
5:56:45PM WE HAVE PLENTY OF RESOURCES DOWN THERE NOW, AND WE HAVE A
5:56:49PM SAFETY AND SECURITY PLAN WHICH WE SAT IN THE ROOM ON THE
5:56:52PM 10th FLOOR AND MR. MICHELINI WAS PRESENT FOR IT AND WE
5:56:55PM WENT OVER IT.
5:56:56PM WE DID NOT RELEASE IT BECAUSE IT IS NOT FOR PUBLIC
5:56:58PM CONSUMPTION.
5:56:59PM IT CONTAINS SENSITIVE INFORMATION IN IT.
5:57:02PM WE DO HAVE A PLAN IN PLACE, BUT IT DOES NOT AND WE ARE NOT
5:57:06PM IN HAD SUPPORT OF POLICE OFFICERS HAVING THAT ROLE.
5:57:10PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
5:57:11PM THANK YOU.
5:57:11PM THEN MAYBE YOU MIGHT WANT TO TALK TO COUNCILMAN CARLSON
5:57:16PM OFF-LINE ABOUT THAT BECAUSE IF IT'S A SENSITIVE DOCUMENT, I
5:57:21PM DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH OF IT YOU'LL BE ABLE TO GIVE TO THE
5:57:23PM PUBLIC.
5:57:24PM >> YES.
5:57:24PM >>LYNN HURTAK: DOES THAT WORK?
5:57:26PM >>BILL CARLSON: THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME OVERVIEW OF IT
5:57:28PM ANYWAY.
5:57:29PM IF WHAT MR. MICHELINI SAID IS TRUE, WE NEED TO PRESENT THAT
5:57:33PM IN SOME WAY TO GET CRA FUNDING.
5:57:36PM WE CAN ALL TALK ABOUT THIS OFF-LINE, BUT BESIDES LETTING THE
5:57:41PM PUBLIC -- WE NEED TO REASSURE THE PUBLIC THAT WE HAVE SOME
5:57:44PM KIND OF OVERALL PLAN, BUT THEN WE ALSO, IF THAT IS A
5:57:48PM REQUIREMENT FOR CRA FUNDING, WE SHOULD MAKE SURE WE CHECK
5:57:51PM THAT BOX.
5:57:52PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
5:57:53PM MA'AM, DID YOU WANT TO SPEAK BEFORE I GO TO THE ONLINE
5:57:55PM SPEAKERS?
5:57:56PM >> YES.
5:57:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: PLEASE COME UP AND STATE YOUR NAME.
5:57:59PM I HAVE THREE REGISTERED SPEAKERS ONLINE.
5:58:00PM >> THANK YOU.
5:58:01PM MY NAME IS CLAIR FINLAND MAY.
5:58:04PM I AM A RESIDENT OF YBOR AND A MEMBER OF FIVE NEIGHBORHOOD
5:58:06PM ASSOCIATIONS IN YBOR.
5:58:07PM I'M HERE TO READ FOR REPRESENTING THAT -- THOSE
5:58:12PM NEIGHBORHOODS.
5:58:15PM THIS IS FROM NOVEMBER 1st, 2007 PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT, MR.
5:58:20PM MIRANDA REGARDING INTERIM PARKING AND ENFORCEMENT.
5:58:23PM DEAR MR. MIRANDA -- HOPE I'M SAYING THAT CORRECTLY.
5:58:32PM -- I HOPE YOU ARE WELL.
5:58:33PM AHEAD OF THE EVENING CITY COUNCIL MEETING TOMORROW, I HAVE
5:58:35PM BEEN REVIEWING THE HISTORY OF YBOR'S PARKING SITUATION AND
5:58:38PM FOUND THAT YOU APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN THERE FROM THE START.
5:58:41PM OR AT LEAST THE START OF THE CITY COUNCIL TRANSCRIPT
5:58:45PM RECORDS.
5:58:46PM IN REVIEWING THIS, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE CYNICAL NATURE OF
5:58:52PM THE PARKING LOT ISSUE IN YBOR -- AND THIS IS FROM 2007 --
5:58:57PM THE CYNICAL NATURE OF THE PARKING LOT ISSUE IN YBOR AND THE
5:59:02PM FACT THAT INTERIM LOTS WERE INTENDED TO BE SUNSET.
5:59:06PM IN FACT, YOU STATE THE CONCERN IN A RECORD DURING NOVEMBER
5:59:10PM 1st, 2007 MEETING EXCERPT BELOW.
5:59:15PM RESPECTFULLY, THE TIME HAS COME.
5:59:18PM PLEASE HELP YBOR IMPROVE THE DISTRICT AND ENFORCE THE CODE
5:59:21PM AS IT WAS WRITTEN ALL THOSE YEARS AGO.
5:59:24PM BECAUSE WITHOUT ENFORCEMENT, THERE'S NO POINT IN WRITING THE
5:59:28PM CODE.
5:59:28PM THE REVISION TO THE CODE ARE RUSHED AND INTERIM LOTS YOU
5:59:33PM VOWED TO EXTRADITE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CODE ARE BEING
5:59:38PM RECATEGORIZED AS PERMANENT FIXTURES IN THE RESIDENTIAL
5:59:42PM PORTION OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
5:59:43PM I ASK THAT YOU PLEASE RECONSIDER THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU
5:59:47PM REGARDING THE YBOR PARKING LOTS.
5:59:49PM MAY I MAKE A POINT?
5:59:50PM WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT PUBLIC AND PRIVATE.
5:59:53PM WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT PAID AND NONPAID.
5:59:55PM IT'S PAID PRIVATE.
5:59:59PM WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT THE PRIVATE LOTS THAT ARE PAID.
6:00:01PM THEY ARE NOT JUST IN A LUMP WITH THE OTHER PARKING LOTS.
6:00:08PM THEN IT GOES DOWN TO TALK ABOUT THE AGENDA AT -- WELL, DO I
6:00:15PM NEED TO READ ALL THAT?
06:00:19PM WOW.
06:00:19PM OKAY.
06:00:20PM MAYBE I SHOULD PUT IT HERE SO YOU CAN SEE IT.
06:00:23PM CAN YOU SEE?
06:00:28PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THERE YOU GO.
06:00:29PM >> DO I NEED TO TURN IT UP?
06:00:31PM I AM REFERRING TO ALL OF THESE HERE.
06:00:32PM I WILL READ THE PART WITHOUT THE MINUTES, AND THE THINGS SO I
06:00:36PM CAN GET THREE MINUTES IN THERE.
06:00:38PM SO ELOQUENTLY ADDRESSED BY MIRANDA.
06:00:43PM THESE HAVE BEEN GOING ON FOR MORE THAN FIVE YEARS.
06:00:46PM WE HAVE GIVEN THOSE INTERIM PARKING LOTS ALL OF THE LEEWAY
06:00:52PM AND THE ABILITY TO BRING IT UP TO THE STANDARDS OF THE CITY
06:00:55PM AND THIS HAPPENED BACK IN THE 1990s.
06:00:57PM OR EARLIER.
06:00:59PM SINCE TIME HAS PASSED, FIVE YEARS HAVE GONE BY ALMOST TWICE
06:01:04PM AS LONG AS FIVE YEARS AND THE SAME OL' THING.
06:01:07PM OLD DANG -- ANYWAY.
06:01:10PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:01:12PM >>LYNN HURTAK: YOU WANT TO ADD THAT TO THE RECORD AND WE CAN
06:01:15PM READ IT.
06:01:16PM >> I DO.
06:01:17PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: JUST FOR THE RECORD.
06:01:19PM I NEVER MET THIS YOUNG LADY.
06:01:21PM SHE BROUGHT IT UP.
06:01:22PM TAKEN 15 YEARS AND --
06:01:24PM >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:01:25PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:01:28PM THREE REGISTERED SPEAKERS ON LINE.
06:01:30PM CORY, FRANK AND JENNIFER.
06:01:32PM CORY, IF YOU ARE ON.
06:01:33PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND GO AHEAD.
06:01:36PM >> GOOD EVENING, MY NAME IS CORY BROWN.
06:01:38PM 1924 EAST 5th AVENUE.
06:01:41PM I AM AN YBOR RESIDENT.
06:01:43PM I LIVE APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET FROM ONE OF THESE OPEN PRIVATE
06:01:47PM LOTS THAT ARE FOR DISCUSSION.
06:01:48PM I AM ONLINE TO EXPRESS MY CONCERN ON THE 14th OF FEBRUARY, I
06:01:57PM WAS ASSAULTED BY AN INDIVIDUAL.
06:02:00PM I WAS COMING FROM THESE LOTS.
06:02:02PM I HAVE A -- TWO DAUGHTERS AND MY WIFE THAT WERE HOME AT THE TIME.
06:02:07PM I AM EXPRESSING MY CONCERN BECAUSE SAFETY IS AN ISSUE.
06:02:13PM FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, MY WIFE WAS CONCERNED OF LEAVING THE
06:02:20PM HOUSE.
06:02:20PM AT THE END OF THE DAY, WE ARE NOT REALLY ASKING FOR MUCH.
06:02:24PM WE ARE ASKING FOR THE -- THE IMPROVEMENT AND ENFORCEMENT OF
06:02:30PM THESE CODES THAT HAVE BEEN IN PLACE BRINGING THINGS UP TO
06:02:34PM STANDARD AND ULTIMATELY JUST WANTING THE BETTERMENT OF THE
06:02:38PM AREA.
06:02:38PM YBOR IS A -- IS A POINT FOR -- THAT TAMPA CLAIMS AS -- YOU
06:02:47PM KNOW, AS HISTORIC.
06:02:49PM IT IS A POINT WHERE PEOPLE COME IN.
06:02:52PM AND THERE IS A LOT OF ACTIVITY HERE.
06:02:54PM AND SHOULDN'T BE A BLEMISH TO THE CITY.
06:02:56PM SO ULTIMATELY, WE ARE REQUESTING THAT THESE -- THESE
06:03:02PM BLEMISHES IN THE AREA BE BROUGHT UP TO CODE.
06:03:05PM THE BETTERMENT OF THE FACILITY IMPROVES THE SAFETY OF THE
06:03:09PM AREA.
06:03:09PM THE REQUIREMENT OF SAFETY FOR THE SECURITY.
06:03:17PM EXTRA SECURITY.
06:03:19PM IF IT IS THAT MUCH TO IMPROVE THE AREA.
06:03:21PM I DON'T THINK IT IS A BIG ASK.
06:03:23PM WHEN YOU HAVE PEOPLE'S LIVES THAT ARE PUT IN JEOPARDY.
06:03:27PM AGAIN, THESE THINGS DON'T TYPICALLY HAPPEN IN WELL-LIT,
06:03:34PM GUARDED AREAS.
06:03:35PM THESE LOTS THAT ARE OPEN, DARK, TUCKED IN THE CORNERS WHERE
06:03:42PM NIGHTTIME ACTIVITY HAPPENS.
06:03:43PM IT IS A NO BRAINER.
06:03:45PM YOU -- YOU PUT SOME MONEY INTO IT.
06:03:49PM BRINGS THINGS UP TO CODE.
06:03:50PM LESSEN THE TRAFFIC OF UNWANTED ACTIVITY.
06:03:53PM AND ULTIMATELY, IT BETTERS THE -- THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE
06:03:57PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:04:00PM CRIME IS REDUCED AND OVERALL, THE AESTHETICS OF AN AREA ARE
06:04:04PM BROUGHT UP.
06:04:06PM THAT IS MY TWO CENTS.
06:04:07PM THANK YOU.
06:04:08PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
06:04:10PM NEXT SPEAKER IS FRANK RODRIGUEZ.
06:04:13PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME, SIR.
06:04:15PM YOU ARE MUTED, SIR.
06:04:16PM PLEASE UNMUTE YOURSELF.
06:04:18PM >> HELLO, MY NAME IS FRANK RODRIGUEZ.
06:04:24PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, SIR.
06:04:25PM GO AHEAD.
06:04:26PM >> HI.
06:04:26PM THANK YOU NOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK, CITY COUNCIL.
06:04:32PM I AGREE WITH THE PUBLIC STATEMENT MADE FROM 717 ON A NEWS
06:04:38PM PROGRAM STATING THAT THERE SHOULD BE SECURITY IN PARKING
06:04:41PM LOTS.
06:04:41PM AND FOLLOWED THAT UP WITH THAT -- THAT THE -- THE PAID
06:04:45PM SECURITY SHOULD BE HANDLED BY THE CITY, WHICH I THINK IS
06:04:49PM LUDICROUS FOR A PRIVATELY OWNED BUSINESS TO BE SUBSIDIZED BY
06:04:53PM TAXPAYERS.
06:04:55PM I LIVED, STUDIED AND WORKED IN YBOR SINCE THE 1990s BECOMING
06:04:59PM A FULL-TIME RESIDENT IN 2016.
06:05:01PM THE CITY HAS MADE MANY QUALITY-OF-LIFE IMPROVEMENTS.
06:05:05PM BUT DERELICT PARKING LOTS HAVE REMAINED UNCHANGED.
06:05:08PM BAFFLING THAT THE LOTS BETWEEN NUCCIO PARKWAY AND 21st HAS
06:05:14PM SEEN LITTLE OVERSIGHT UNTIL NOW.
06:05:16PM THEY REMAIN DILAPIDATED.
06:05:19PM THEY ARE -- LET ME JUST GO ON.
06:05:22PM YBOR CITY GEM.
06:05:27PM NOTHING LIKE IT IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA.
06:05:29PM ONLY THING LIKE IT IS ST. AUGUSTINE AND THAT PLACE IS AS
06:05:33PM WONDERFUL AS YBOR.
06:05:34PM AND IT BAFFLES ME THAT WE CAN'T ADVOCATE FOR THIS AREA FOR
06:05:42PM THE RESIDENTS TO LIVE THERE AND FOR THE FOLKS TO VISIT HERE.
06:05:47PM YOU KNOW CORY GOT ASSAULTED.
06:05:48PM WHAT DOES THAT SAY OF SOMEBODY COMING FROM OHIO WALKING
06:05:52PM THROUGH ONE OF THESE LOTS?
06:05:53PM I DON'T THINK IT IS VERY GOOD P.R.
06:05:57PM BUT ULTIMATELY IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE.
06:05:59PM AND IT IS OUR ISSUE.
06:06:01PM I LIVE ONE BLOCK AWAY.
06:06:07PM I AM NOT -- I AM NOT GOING TO SAY THAT ONLINE.
06:06:11PM I LIVE ONE BLOCK AWAY.
06:06:13PM I WALK BY THOSE LOTS.
06:06:14PM I AM NOT A PASSIVE OVERSEER.
06:06:17PM I SEE LOITERING.
06:06:18PM I SEE LITTERING.
06:06:19PM I SEE AFTER-HOUR PARTIES.
06:06:22PM DO GO OUT ON 7th AND ENJOY THE NIGHTLIFE AFTER HOURS, AND I
06:06:31PM GO PAST THOSE PLACES, AND I LOOKED UP RECORDS, PHYSICAL AND
06:06:34PM SEXUAL ASSAULTS THAT HAPPENED ON THOSE PARKING LOTS -- IN
06:06:37PM THOSE PARKING LOTS.
06:06:38PM SO I RESPECTFULLY ASK CITY COUNCIL TO APPROVE A MEASURE TO
06:06:44PM ENFORCE THE NEED FOR SECURITY IN THESE PARKING LOTS TO MAKE
06:06:48PM OUR AREA SAFER, WHICH, I DON'T THINK IS THAT HARD.
06:06:53PM AND -- AND IF YOU DO YOU PASS IT, I RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT IT
06:06:59PM NOT BE DELAYED.
06:07:00PM THANK YOU.
06:07:00PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:07:02PM OUR LAST REGISTERED ONLINE SPEAKER IS JENNIFER.
06:07:06PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
06:07:07PM >> HELLO.
06:07:08PM I AM JENNIFER EKLAND.
06:07:12PM AND I'M HERE BECAUSE I DO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PARKING LOTS
06:07:14PM NEXT TO MY HOUSE.
06:07:15PM I HAVE LIVED IN YBOR SINCE 2005 ON 4th AVENUE.
06:07:20PM AND I WANTED TO TONIGHT REPEAT THE ENFORCEMENT OF CODES.
06:07:24PM I WAS ACTUALLY SHOCKED TO LEARN THERE WAS ACTUALLY CODES
06:07:26PM THAT HAVE BEEN IN EFFECT SINCE 2010 BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN HERE
06:07:30PM BOTH BEFORE AND LONG AFTER.
06:07:31PM AND I HAVE NOT SEEN MANY OF THESE CODES BEING ENFORCED.
06:07:35PM SINCE I HAVE BEEN HERE, WE HAVE BEEN SUBJECTED TO PARTYING
06:07:42PM UNTIL 3 A.M.
06:07:43PM A LOT OF RUN-INS WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE BASICALLY HANGING
06:07:47PM AROUND AND DOING THINGS THEY SHOULDN'T BE DOING.
06:07:49PM I DON'T NEED TO REPEAT THE TRASH SITUATION.
06:07:51PM AND ALSO THERE WAS ACTUALLY GUNSHOT DAMAGE TO CARS BEHIND
06:07:55PM OUR HOUSES IN OUR ALLEY.
06:07:58PM THIS IS JUST UNACCEPTABLE.
06:08:00PM AND WHAT IS A NATIONAL LANDMARK DISTRICT.
06:08:04PM THIS IS AN AREA THAT EVERYONE HAS THEIR EYES ON.
06:08:07PM THIS IS THE AREA THAT THE NEWS LOVES TO REPORT ON.
06:08:10PM AND THE WAY THAT THE CITY MANAGES THIS AREA REFLECTS
06:08:13PM HORRIBLY ON HOW YOU GUYS RESPECT PLACES THAT HAVE
06:08:18PM HISTORICALLY BEEN RESIDENTIAL AND REALLY IS CURRENTLY
06:08:22PM BUSHING FOR NEW INFLUX OF MAJOR -- YOU KNOW, RESIDENTS TO
06:08:27PM THE EYRE I CAN'T.
06:08:28PM WE REALLY NEED PEOPLE TO LISTEN TO THE RESIDENTS, AND WE
06:08:33PM REALLY NEED THESE CODES TO ACTUALLY BE ENFORCED.
06:08:36PM THANK YOU.
06:08:36PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:08:40PM COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.
06:08:41PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU, MR. COTTON, CAN YOU BRING UP --
06:08:45PM AND CAN YOU PUT UP THE NEW LANGUAGE FOR THIS?
06:08:51PM >>ERIC COTTON: THE NEW LANGUAGE?
06:08:52PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WHATEVER YOU ARE PROPOSING.
06:08:54PM BECAUSE I AM CONCERNED ABOUT -- SOMEONE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT
06:08:57PM -- SEVERAL MEMBERS TALKED OF THE REMOVING OF THE LANDSCAPE
06:09:01PM REQUIREMENT.
06:09:02PM CAN YOU SPEAK TO THAT.
06:09:03PM >>ERIC COTTON: YES, MA'AM.
06:09:03PM THERE IS A PROPOSAL -- AND WE HAVE DISCUSSED THIS WITH THE
06:09:06PM -- WITH THE BLC STAFF, AND THEY HAVE ROUTINELY SAID THAT THE
06:09:12PM LANDSCAPING IN YBOR DOES NOT SURVIVE BECAUSE PEOPLE TRAMPLE
06:09:15PM OVER IT.
06:09:15PM IT IS BEING PROPOSED TO BE REMOVED WAS, WE ARE INCREASING --
06:09:20PM LET ME -- REPEALING THE WHOLE SECTION.
06:09:24PM LET ME PUT THE LANGUAGE UP ON THE ELMO OR THE WOLF --
06:09:28PM WHATEVER IT IS CALLED.
06:09:30PM WE WERE REPEALING THE LANGUAGE TO REQUIRE NOT AS MUCH
06:09:37PM LANDSCAPING ALONG THE RIGHT-OF-WAY BECAUSE WHAT HAS HAPPENED
06:09:41PM HISTORICALLY FROM WHAT WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT PEOPLE JUST
06:09:44PM WALK OVER IT.
06:09:44PM THEY DON'T WALK AROUND IT.
06:09:46PM THEY WALK THROUGH IT FOR WHATEVER REASON.
06:09:48PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THAT IS INTERESTING, BECAUSE, AGAIN, MULTIPLE
06:09:51PM MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC HAVE TOLD US TONIGHT THAT THE CITY'S
06:09:55PM LANDSCAPE LOTS ARE LOVELY.
06:09:57PM BECAUSE -- I MEAN, I KNOW AS I HAVE GONE THROUGH YBOR AND
06:10:04PM PARK IN OUR PARKING LOTS.
06:10:05PM I GENERALLY -- I GUESS I AM PAYING MY OWN SALARY BY PARKING
06:10:10PM IN THE PARKING LOTS, BUT I -- YOU KNOW, THERE IS A LOT OF
06:10:15PM GREENERY IN OUR PARKING LOTS.
06:10:17PM THEY ARE LOVELY.
06:10:17PM THAT'S WHERE ALL THE CHICKENS HANG OUT.
06:10:20PM I DON'T KNOW, I HAVE A THING FOR THE CHICKENS.
06:10:22PM SO I DON'T AGREE WITH TAKING OUT -- SO PERSONALLY, I WOULD
06:10:27PM -- MOVING FORWARD, I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THE TREE LANGUAGE
06:10:31PM BACK IN -- OR THE LANDSCAPING.
06:10:33PM IT SAYS HERE.
06:10:35PM SO THIS IS THE NEW LANGUAGE.
06:10:36PM WHAT WAS THE LANGUAGE TAKEN OUT?
06:10:44PM >>ERIC COTTON: I WILL GET YOU WITH IN A SECOND.
06:10:45PM IT WILL BE THE STRIKE-THROUGH VERSION.
06:10:48PM >>LYNN HURTAK: YEAH.
06:10:49PM THAT'S FINE.
06:10:50PM >>ERIC COTTON: IT STARTS UP HERE WHICH -- AGAIN, APOLOGIES
06:10:56PM -- APOLOGIES FOR THE STRIKE-THROUGH.
06:10:58PM >>LYNN HURTAK: NO WORRIES.
06:10:59PM >>ERIC COTTON: DIFFERENT LOT SIZE.
06:11:01PM WHATEVER LOT SIZE IS THE KIND OF LANDSCAPE YOU NEEDED TO
06:11:05PM HAVE.
06:11:05PM A BREAKDOWN WITH THAT.
06:11:06PM THE CONCERN WAS GROUP USE A AND GROUP USE B.
06:11:12PM A PARKING LOT WILL BE A GROUP USE C ADJACENT TO A A, A
06:11:18PM SIX-FOOT MASONRY WALL OR A FENCE WHICH IS WHAT YBOR WILL
06:11:25PM LIKELY HAVE AND 15-FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER THAT IS REQUIRED BY
06:11:29PM CODE.
06:11:29PM THIS IS BASICALLY SAYING YOU WILL HAVE TO BE ABLE TO MEET
06:11:32PM THOSE REQUIREMENTS.
06:11:33PM WHAT WE HAD OUR DISCUSSIONS AT THE STAFF LEVEL WAS THAT THE
06:11:37PM -- WAS THAT THE LANDSCAPING DOESN'T SURVIVE AS WELL IN YBOR.
06:11:42PM SO, THEREFORE, THE RECOMMENDATION WAS TO REMOVE THAT
06:11:46PM LANGUAGE AND NOT REQUIRE IT ON -- ON THE PARKING LOTS,
06:11:50PM EITHER INTERNALLY OR ALONG THE -- ANY LANDSCAPE WILL BE
06:11:57PM REQUIREMENTS.
06:11:57PM IRRIGATION, THEY CAN DO HAND WATERED VERSUS HAVING TO
06:12:01PM INSTALL, YOU KNOW, TYPICAL SPRINKLER SYSTEM.
06:12:06PM FOR THE -- BECAUSE THE DESIGN STANDARDS FOR YBOR CITY.
06:12:12PM AND A THREE-FOOT OR FOUR-FOOT FENCE IS ALONG THE
06:12:16PM RIGHT-OF-WAY.
06:12:16PM SIX- TO EIGHT-FOOT FENCE WHERE YOU ARE ABUTTING THE
06:12:21PM RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.
06:12:22PM AND BETWEEN A BUMPER STOP AND THE FENCE, A MINIMUM OF FIVE
06:12:26PM NIGHT, BUT WILL NOT BE REQUIRED TO BE PLANTED.
06:12:29PM IT CAN BE OPEN, BUT IT WILL STILL HAVE TO BE A FIVE-FOOT
06:12:34PM BUFFER.
06:12:34PM >>LYNN HURTAK: PERSONALLY, I WOULD ADD THE LANDSCAPING BACK
06:12:39PM WITH THE BUFFER.
06:12:40PM I THINK HAVING JUST FIVE FEET OF ASPHALT IS PART OF WHAT THE
06:12:43PM NEIGHBORHOOD IS COMPLAINING ABOUT
06:12:44PM AND ADDS TO THE UNSIGHTLINESS.
06:12:47PM IF THAT -- I DON'T KNOW -- REQUEST -- SO I -- I MAKE A
06:12:54PM MOTION TO ADD THE LANDSCAPING BACK IN PRESIDENT FIVE-FOOT
06:12:59PM DISTANCE BETWEEN BUMPER STOPS AND FENCE AND THAT -- SO THAT
06:13:05PM IS MY MOTION.
06:13:05PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA.
06:13:09PM ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
06:13:09PM ANY OPPOSED?
06:13:17PM >>LYNN HURTAK: SO THAT IS ONE I WOULD DO.
06:13:18PM BUT OTHERWISE, IT DOES SAY -- TO USE ADJACENT -- IS THERE A
06:13:25PM REQUIREMENT FOR THE PERCENTAGE OF GREEN SPACE ON A -- ON A
06:13:31PM PRIMARY USE PARKING LOT?
06:13:34PM >>ERIC COTTON: THERE ARE PARKING LOT LANDSCAPING STANDARDS.
06:13:37PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
06:13:37PM >>ERIC COTTON: FOR EVERY TEN SPACES YOU HAVE A PARKING LOT
06:13:42PM ISLAND AND STUFF LIKE THAT.
06:13:44PM >>LYNN HURTAK: DO THOSE STANDARDS APPLY TO THESE LOTS?
06:13:48PM >>ERIC COTTON: NO, MA'AM.
06:13:49PM NOT REQUIRED AS OF RIGHT NOW WITH THE PROPOSED LANGUAGE.
06:13:52PM >>LYNN HURTAK: SO COULD I MAKE -- WHAT WOULD IT CHANGE -- I
06:13:56PM AM ASKING IF THE LAWYERS CAN HELP ME OUT A LITTLE BIT WHAT
06:14:02PM THIS WILL TAKE BECAUSE I WOULD REALLY PREFER NOT TO HAVE TO
06:14:05PM COME BACK FOR THIS.
06:14:06PM CAN WE JUST ADD LANGUAGE THAT SAYS THEY MUST COMPLY WITH THE
06:14:13PM -- WITH THE PARKING LOT LANDSCAPE STANDARDS?
06:14:18PM >>ERIC COTTON: THAT IS THE OPTION OF COUNCIL.
06:14:22PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I AM ASKING SOMETHING FOR LEGAL IF THAT IS
06:14:25PM SOMETHING WE CAN SIMPLY ADD.
06:14:27PM >>DANA CROSBY COLLIER: DANA CROSBY COLLIER.
06:14:28PM IF YOU WANT TO ADD LANDSCAPING BACK TOOT PARKING, IT IS IN
06:14:32PM THE SCOPE OF THE TITLE.
06:14:34PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO ADD THE
06:14:36PM CITY'S LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS BACK INTO THIS AMENDMENT --
06:14:40PM THIS, YES, THIS AMENDMENT.
06:14:43PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SECOND.
06:14:44PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MOTION FROM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:14:46PM SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.
06:14:49PM ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
06:14:50PM OPPOSED?
06:14:51PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.
06:14:52PM THE ONLY OTHER THING I ASK, I AM INCREDIBLY CONCERNED THAT
06:14:56PM IN TWO MONTHS' TIME, THE NEIGHBORHOOD HAS NOT HAD A CHANCE
06:14:59PM TO MEET.
06:15:00PM >>ERIC COTTON: WELL, LET ME ADDRESS THAT.
06:15:03PM THIS IS AN E-MAIL THAT ABBY SENT ON MAY 31 WHICH WENT TO THE
06:15:09PM BOARD WHERE SHE SAYS -- SHE LOOKED BACK AT -- BECAUSE SHE
06:15:12PM HAD RECEIVED AN E-MAIL FROM THERE CURRIE AND A KNOWN CALL.
06:15:17PM SHE CALLED HIM BACK.
06:15:18PM HIS VOICEMAIL WAS FULL.
06:15:20PM SHE SAID SHE HAS NOT HEARD ANY CORRESPONDENCE SINCE APRIL.
06:15:25PM I DON'T THINK IT IS NECESSARILY -- SHE HAS -- SHE REACHED
06:15:28PM OUT.
06:15:29PM SHE STILL -- NOBODY HAS STILL CONTACTED HER TO THE BEST OF
06:15:34PM MY KNOWLEDGE SINCE THIS E-MAIL WENT OUT.
06:15:37PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
06:15:38PM I THINK WHAT I AM GOING TO DO -- MY AIDE, MISS SHARPE IS
06:15:42PM HERE.
06:15:42PM I WILL HAVE HIS SHARPE REACH OUT TO ABBY'S SECRETARY AND
06:15:47PM HAVE US COME UP WITH A MEETING PLAN OVER THE NEXT TWO WEEKS.
06:15:50PM DOES THAT WORK?
06:15:52PM >>ERIC COTTON: WORKS FOR ME.
06:15:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK: NOT FOR US -- NOT FOR ME, BUT I WILL BE THERE
06:15:57PM IF I HAVE TO BE, BUT TO LET THEM -- SO THAT WAY MY AIDE CAN
06:16:01PM HELP FACILITATE THAT MEETING.
06:16:03PM >>ERIC COTTON: I AM GOOD WITH THAT.
06:16:04PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.
06:16:05PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.
06:16:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: A QUESTION OF THE STRIKE-THROUGHS, THE
06:16:10PM FENCING REQUIREMENT STRUCK THROUGH AS WELL?
06:16:13PM >>ERIC COTTON: IT WAS MODIFIED FOR A SIX TO EIGHT-FOOT FENCE
06:16:17PM ON THE SIDE.
06:16:18PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I WAS LOOKING AT THAT SAYING IT IS
06:16:20PM MODIFIED.
06:16:21PM >>ERIC COTTON: ONE OF THE THINGS WAS AN OPERATIONAL PLAN
06:16:24PM SECURING THE PARKING LOTS WHEN THEY ARE CLOSED.
06:16:27PM 717 INDICATED THEY ARE HOPE 24-7.
06:16:31PM I DON'T KNOW IF ALL THE OTHER PARKING LOTS ARE LIKE THAT.
06:16:34PM BUT IF YOU CLOSE THAT 3:00 IN THE MORNING BECAUSE WHEN THE
06:16:37PM BARS CLOSE AND PEOPLE LEAVE.
06:16:40PM YOU SECURE THE PARKING LOT.
06:16:42PM IT WILL BE CLOSED OR BARRED SO PEOPLE CANNOT REASON IT TO BE
06:16:47PM ON THAT LOT.
06:16:48PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I WANT -- FOR THE PEOPLE WHO SPOKE.
06:16:50PM I WANT TO CLARIFY MY POSITION ON THIS.
06:16:52PM I AM ABSOLUTELY SUPPORTIVE OF THE CHANGES TO THE
06:16:55PM REQUIREMENTS FOR YBOR CITY.
06:16:56PM MY THING IS THAT IT DIDN'T GO FAR ENOUGH AND WE MAY HAVE
06:17:00PM THINGS SLIPPING THROUGH OUR FINGER AND LOTS THAT DO NOT
06:17:04PM TECHNICALLY FALL WITHIN THAT, AND MY CONCERN WAS EQUITABLE
06:17:07PM ACROSS EVERY -- PROPERTIES AND PROBLEMATIC AREA AND SOME OF
06:17:10PM THAT INSECURITY IN MY THOUGHT PROCESS WAS NOT TURNED
06:17:15PM STANDING WHAT PROPERTIES ARE HANGING OUT THERE THAT I AM
06:17:19PM NOT AWARE OF THAT WERE USED OR NOT USED FOR PARKING AND WHAT
06:17:23PM IS HAPPENING ON THOSE LOTS.
06:17:25PM THAT IS WHY HE ASKED OF THE CRIME STATISTICS IF WE HAVE
06:17:29PM BROKEN THAT DOWN BETWEEN PAID AND LOTS HANGING OUT THAT THE
06:17:33PM PEOPLE WERE USING AT NIGHTTIME IF THE CRIME STATISTICS HAD
06:17:36PM BEEN BROKEN OUT.
06:17:37PM I WOULD STILL LIKE TO SEE THAT, BY THE WAY.
06:17:40PM AND SOUTH CAROLINA SOMETHING BROUGHT UP OF SECURITY AND CITY
06:17:50PM PAYING FOR IT.
06:17:51PM I AM NOT GOING TO SUPPORT THE CITY PAYING FOR PARKING LOTS
06:17:55PM AND GENERAL FUND.
06:17:56PM WE ARE NOT IN THE BUSINESS TO SUBSIDIZE FOR-PROFIT BUSINESS.
06:18:02PM THAT IS NOT THE BUSINESS OF THE CITY HIGHWAY WON'T VOTE FOR
06:18:05PM THAT.
06:18:05PM THANK YOU.
06:18:05PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE?
06:18:07PM COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
06:18:08PM >>BILL CARLSON: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK TALKED ABOUT SETTING UP
06:18:12PM A MEETING.
06:18:13PM COULD THE DAILIES OR ANY OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD LEADER -- SHE
06:18:17PM AND I CAN'T TALK TO EACH OTHER AND YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT
06:18:19PM SHE SAYS BUT YOU CAN TELL ME IF A MEETING IS SET UP JUST TO
06:18:23PM MAKE SURE IT IS.
06:18:24PM IF I CAN HELP WITH THAT, I WILL BE HAPPY TO DO THAT.
06:18:26PM I WILL BE OUT OF TOWN SO IF YOU E-MAIL US THEIR WILL BE BEST
06:18:30PM TO STAY IN TOUCH.
06:18:31PM THE OTHER THING I WANT TO TELL THE PUBLIC IS THAT AROUND
06:18:34PM PARKING ISSUES IN YBOR AND OTHER LAND USE ISSUES.
06:18:41PM WE AS CITY COUNCIL HAVE SOME CONTROL OVER THE CODE.
06:18:43PM WE ARE LIMITED SOME BY THE STATE.
06:18:45PM WE CAN SET THE -- THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THE CODE.
06:18:50PM WE HAVE SOME LEEWAY TO DO THAT.
06:18:51PM ONCE WE SET IT, SOME FOLKS HAVE ASKED ABOUT ENFORCEMENT.
06:18:56PM UNFORTUNATELY CITY COUNCIL DOESN'T HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER
06:18:59PM ENFORCEMENT, AN ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITY.
06:19:04PM WE CAN ASK AND ASK FOR ANY REPORTS ON IT AND USUALLY GOOD AT
06:19:08PM COLLABORATING WITH US.
06:19:09PM AND WE DON'T HAVE AUTHORITY OVER THEM.
06:19:11PM WE CAN ALSO SUGGEST INCREASING THEIR BUDGET IF WE THINK THEY
06:19:16PM SHOULD HAVE MORE FOLKS.
06:19:19PM THE SAME THING WITH TPD.
06:19:22PM REPORTS BACK TO THE ADMINISTRATION.
06:19:23PM MAKE SURE WE HAVE ALL THE RESOURCES WE NEED AND PUSH TO FUND
06:19:26PM MORE POLICE OFFICERS WHICH WE HAVE DONE.
06:19:28PM ULTIMATELY THAT IS UP TO THE ADMINISTRATION.
06:19:31PM THE OTHER TOOL THAT CITY COUNCIL HAS IS THE CRA AND SOME OF
06:19:35PM ARE YOU INVOLVED IN THAT.
06:19:37PM THERE ARE MARKET FORCES REGARDING THESE LOTS.
06:19:48PM WITHOUT TALKING ABOUT ANY SPECIFIC ONES, I HAVE INTERFACED
06:19:52PM WITH SOME OF THE LANDOWNERS.
06:19:53PM I KNOW STAFF AT THE CRA HAVE INTERACTED WITH THE LANDOWNERS.
06:19:57PM ALIS, WHO UNFORTUNATELY IS LEAVING THE CITY HAD A GREAT
06:20:08PM RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ACCARDIS AND COME UP WITH A MARKET
06:20:12PM INCENTIVE PROGRAM JUST LIKE WE ARE TRYING TO INCENTIVIZE
06:20:15PM AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
06:20:16PM FOR WHATEVER REASON, SOME OF THE PROPERTY OWNERS THINK IT IS
06:20:18PM BETTER TO KEEP IT AS -- KEEP THESE LOTS AS PARKING LOTS
06:20:24PM RATHER THAN DEVELOPING.
06:20:25PM NOT COMPLETELY AGAINST DEVELOPING, BUT SOMEHOW WE HAVE TO
06:20:27PM WORK WITH THE CRA STAFF AND THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STAFF
06:20:31PM TO TRY TO -- TRY TO CONVINCE THE PROPERTY OWNERS THAT IT IS
06:20:35PM BETTER FOR THEM, AS WELL AS YBOR TO -- TO DEVELOP SOME OF
06:20:40PM THESE PROPERTIES.
06:20:40PM HOPEFULLY IN A HISTORICALLY ACCURATE WAY SOME OF THOSE
06:20:48PM CONVERSATIONS HAVE BEEN GOING TO ON AND UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE
06:20:50PM LOSING SOME OF OUR STAFF.
06:20:51PM WHEN WE GET NEW STAFF, HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE ABLE TO CARRY
06:20:55PM THOSE CONVERSATIONS FORWARD.

06:26:13PM 2209, 211 AND 2113 WEST NORTH B STREET.
06:26:20PM RESIDENTIAL-20 TO RESIDENTIAL-35.
06:26:22PM IF THIS LOOK FAMILIAR, THE EXACT SAME SITE THAT YOU DENIED A
06:26:26PM REQUEST IN SEPTEMBER TO NEIGHBORHOOD MIXED USE 35.
06:26:30PM OUR PROCEDURAL MANUAL SAY THE APPLICANT CAN COME IN AFTER
06:26:34PM DENIAL WITH -- A ONE-YEAR HOLDING PERIOD FOR THE EXACT SAME
06:26:38PM REQUEST, BUT IF THEY GO DOWN IN A REQUEST, THEY CAN COME
06:26:41PM BACK.
06:26:41PM SO THEY TOOK INTO CONSIDERATION COUNCIL 'S MOTION AND YOUR
06:26:46PM CONCERNS AND THEY ARE BACK WITH A LOWER REQUEST.
06:26:49PM A RESIDENTIAL-35 IS LOWER THAN WHAT THEY HAD PREVIOUSLY
06:26:53PM ASKED FOR.
06:26:54PM THIS IS IN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT.
06:26:57PM NORTH HYDE PARK NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:26:59PM AND WE ARE IN WEST TAMPA.
06:27:02PM SO IT IS ALSO BEEN THE WEST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE.
06:27:06PM HERE IT IS OUTLINED ON NORTH B STREET.
06:27:09PM THIS IS NORTH ALBANY RIGHT HERE.
06:27:13PM NORTH WESTLAND.
06:27:14PM WE HAVE THE JCC, NORTH HOWARD AND KENNEDY BOULEVARD KIND OF
06:27:19PM TO THE SOUTH WHERE MY WHITE -- WHERE THE WHITE IS ON THE
06:27:22PM SCREEN AND THE NORTH ARMENIA.
06:27:25PM A VARIETY OF RESIDENTIAL USES ACTUALLY EVEN THOUGH THIS SIDE
06:27:31PM OF NORTH WESTLAND HAVE COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35.
06:27:34PM SOME COMMERCIAL USE BUS A LOT OF POTENTIAL FOR SOME
06:27:38PM INTENSIVE PERSONAL USES.
06:27:40PM I HAVE SITE PICTURES.
06:27:41PM LOOKING EAST FROM THE SUBJECT SITE FROM WESTLAND.
06:27:47PM LOOK HAD ACROSS THE SUBJECT SITE OF NORTHWESTLAND.
06:27:53PM PROPERTIES TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF THE SITE.

06:28:19PM AND THEN KENNEDY BOULEVARD HAS THE SECOND OR THIRD MOST
06:28:25PM INTENSIVE LAND USE IN THE CITY AT URBAN MIX 60.
06:28:31PM MOVING NORTH FROM THE CORRIDOR INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD WE HAVE
06:28:34PM THAT TRANSITION OF LAND USE PATTERN FROM URBAN TO COMMUNITY
06:28:38PM LAND USE 35 TO RESIDENTIAL-20 AND THEN RESIDENTIAL-10 THE
06:28:43PM FURTHER NORTH WE GET.
06:28:44PM THE PROPOSAL TO RESIDENTIAL-35 I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT,
06:28:49PM COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35 THAT ABOUT FACES THE SITE.
06:28:53PM SIMILAR DENSITY BUT THE RESIDENTIAL-35 IS MUCH MORE
06:28:56PM RESTRICTIVE WHAT AN APPLICANT CAN DO ON THE SITE BECAUSE IT
06:28:59PM IS REALLY A TRULY RESIDENTIAL CATEGORY WITH LIMITED
06:29:01PM NEIGHBORHOOD SERVING COMMERCIAL AND ALSO SOME RESIDENTIAL-35
06:29:10PM DOWN TO THE NORTH OR SOUTHEAST OF THE SITE.
06:29:12PM THE APPLICANT ALREADY HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR 12 DWELLING
06:29:18PM UNITS OR 13,000 SQUARE FEET OF NONRESIDENTIAL.
06:29:21PM VERY LIMIT IF IT MEETS THAT LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
06:29:26PM WILL GIVE THE APPLICANT THE OPPORTUNITY FOR 22 DWELLING
06:29:30PM UNITS AND 60,000 SQUARE FEET OF NONRESIDENTIAL USES, BUT,
06:29:34PM AGAIN, LIMITED BECAUSE IT IS A RESIDENTIAL CATEGORY.
06:29:37PM I APOLOGIZE FOR THE FORMATTING.
06:29:40PM GOT A LITTLE WONKY WHEN I WENT TO PRINT THIS AFTERNOON.
06:29:45PM OVERALL THE PLANNING COMMISSION VOTED CONSISTENCY ON THIS.
06:29:48PM OUR URBAN VILLAGES, THE GREATEST SHARE OF GROWTH TO THOSE
06:29:52PM AREAS AND SEEKS TO PROMOTE ACCIDENTS TEE OF SUPPORT TRANSIT
06:29:58PM AND THE MIX OF USES AND PROMOTION OF INFILL DEVELOPMENT
06:30:01PM WHICH THIS WILL DO BY INCREASING THE DENSITY EVER SO
06:30:04PM SLIGHTLY.
06:30:04PM WOULD YOU HAVE MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR HOUSING OPTIONS.
06:30:07PM SO WITH THAT, IT IS CONSISTENT.
06:30:09PM AND I KNOW EVAN JOHNSON WITH CITY PLANNING IS HERE AS WELL.

06:35:17PM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
06:35:18PM >> GOOD EVENING, RYAN MANASSE WITH JOHNSON POPE.
06:35:23PM IF CCTV CAN BRING UP THE POWERPOINT, I HAVE A BRIEF POWERPOINT
06:35:29PM PRESENTATION AND TURN THIS IN FOR THE RECORD.
06:35:31PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: IT IS ON OUR SCREEN AND WILL COME UP
06:35:34PM MOMENTARILY FOR YOU.
06:35:35PM >> JUST A LITTLE BACKGROUND WHY THIS IS COMING UP -- CAME UP
06:35:41PM QUICK.
06:35:41PM A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THE BUILDING.
06:35:43PM THE REQUEST -- MY CLIENT OPENED NOBLE RICE IN THE SAME
06:35:46PM GENERAL LOCATION AND SAME BUILDING WHICH QUICKLY BECAME A
06:35:51PM NEIGHBORHOOD FAVORITE AND EXPAND TO A LARGER LOCATION IN
06:35:54PM CHANNELSIDE.
06:35:55PM NOBLE RICE A MICHELIN RECOMMENDED RESTAURANT IN 2023 AND
06:35:59PM 2024.
06:36:00PM OUR CONCEPT -- AND REBRAND TO A NEW CONCEPT IN THAT GENERAL
06:36:04PM LOCATION WHICH WAS COJA, ANOTHER RESTAURANT FOR MY CLIENT IN
06:36:11PM THE BUILDING A UNIT OVER.
06:36:11PM AND THAT WAS RECEIVED THE DISTINCTION OF MICHELIN STAR
06:36:15PM ACTUALLY IN 2023 AND 2024.
06:36:18PM SO WHAT WE ARE BRINGING YOU TONIGHT FOR THE SUBJECT REQUEST
06:36:22PM IS ANOTHER LOCATION.
06:36:23PM AND ERIC ALLUDED TO THAT.
06:36:25PM MORE OF AN -- HE -- HE EXPLAINED IT AS AN EXPANSION, BUT A
06:36:30PM NEW CONCEPTS.
06:36:30PM NOBLE MARKET WAS THERE AND WE ARE PROPOSING A RESTAURANT
06:36:37PM CALLED COJA, ITALIAN JAPANESE FUSION AND TOMASHI, I GUESS, IN
06:36:45PM JAPANESE.
06:36:46PM A MENU OF HAND-MADE PASTAS AND SMALL PLATES AND COULD
06:36:50PM BE TO GO ALONG WITH THE FOOD.
06:36:52PM NOW TO THE BORING LAND USE STUFF, RIGHT.
06:36:54PM THE AERIAL ON SCREEN -- I DON'T HAVE IT ON SCREEN.
06:36:58PM AND ERIC ALLUDED TO THE PARKING TO THE NORTH AND AS WELL AS
06:37:04PM TO THE EAST.
06:37:04PM OUR PARTICULAR UNIT IS MOSTLY LOCATED ON THE CORNER OF WEST
06:37:09PM PLATT STREET AND SOUTH BOULEVARD.
06:37:10PM SO THAT MAIN CORNER.
06:37:12PM THEN YOU CAN SEE THE PARKING AREA AGAIN TO THE EAST AND
06:37:14PM NORTH OF THE BUILDING.
06:37:15PM IT IS A MIXED USE BUILDING.
06:37:16PM THERE ARE OTHER USERS IN IT AS WELL.
06:37:18PM THE SITE PLAN -- THE OVERALL AREA.
06:37:23PM AGAIN, WE ARE NOT -- TO EXPLAIN THE SITUATION ITSELF, THE
06:37:27PM EXTERIOR IS NOT CHANGING AT ALL.
06:37:29PM THE PARKING IS NOT CHANGING.
06:37:30PM NOT CONSIDERED A CHANGE OF USE.
06:37:32PM THERE WILL BE NO NEW PARKING FOR CHANGING TO THE INTERIOR.
06:37:37PM INTERIOR MODIFICATION OF TWO UNITS TO EXPLAIN THE CONCEPT TO
06:37:42PM OUR CLIENT.
06:37:43PM AGAIN WE ARE REQUESTING A RESTAURANT, AND AS YOU KNOW THE
06:37:48PM RESTAURANT HAS TO HAVE FOOD CONTINUOUSLY SERVED DURING
06:37:52PM ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION.
06:37:52PM ZOOMING IN A LITTLE BIT, I OUTLINED THE TWO UNITS IN BLUE.
06:37:56PM ERIC ADVISED THAT THE AB 1 APPROVED IS ON THE TOP PART
06:38:01PM ALREADY AND THE LOWER PORTION OF THE UNIT WILL BE COMBINED
06:38:04PM WITH THAT TO MAKE THIS NEW CONCEPT.
06:38:06PM ONE OF THE REASONS WE DIDN'T DO ANOTHER AB 1.
06:38:09PM THE MAIN REASON, FOR A SPECIAL RESTAURANT IN HILLSBOROUGH
06:38:13PM COUNTY, YOU HAVE TO HAVE 150 SEATS.
06:38:15PM AND WE HAVE AN OCCUPANCY OF 58.
06:38:18PM OBVIOUSLY HE A VERY SMALL BUILD -- SMALL RESTAURANT AND KIND
06:38:21PM OF FUNNY HOW THIS WORKS.
06:38:22PM YOU WOULD THINK THIS IS MORE OF AN ADMINISTRATIVE APPROVAL
06:38:25PM BECAUSE OF THE LOW OCCUPANCY.
06:38:27PM BUT BECAUSE WE DON'T MEET THAT THRESHOLD WE GET PUSH INTO A
06:38:31PM RESTAURANT FOR A SPECIAL USE 2.
06:38:32PM ERIC INDICATED WE ARE SEEKING HOURS CONSISTENT WITH CHAPTER
06:38:36PM 14 AS WELL.
06:38:37PM LET'S SEE -- SOMETHING TO ANNOTATE THE ENTIRE AB AREA IS
06:38:45PM INDOOR ONLY.
06:38:46PM NO OUTDOOR CONSUMPTION.
06:38:48PM NO OUTDOOR OPERATIONS.
06:38:50PM NOW TO GET TO THE WAIVERS.
06:38:52PM I THINK MY -- MY POWERPOINT WENT AWAY -- WHOOPS, THERE WE
06:38:57PM GO.
06:38:57PM WE ARE ASKING TWO WAIVERS TONIGHT FROM THE DISTANCE OF
06:39:01PM RESIDENTIAL AND AB SALES.
06:39:03PM THE DISTANCE TO OTHER AB SALES ESTABLISHMENT IS ZERO
06:39:09PM CONSISTENT WITH AB 1 AND COJA WITH A AB PERMIT AND IT IS
06:39:15PM ZERO.
06:39:15PM ALSO ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO MEET THE 250 FEET AB SALES
06:39:20PM ESTABLISHMENT TO OTHER AB SALES ESTABLISHMENT IN THIS TYPE
06:39:23PM OF URBAN ENVIRONMENT THAT HAS A MIX OF ZONING DISTRICTS AND
06:39:26PM USES.
06:39:27PM ADDITIONALLY, WE BELIEVE THESE DISTANCES WERE IN PLACE TO
06:39:31PM MOSTLY AVOID THE CONCENTRATION OF BARS AND CLUBS AND OUR
06:39:34PM REQUEST BEFORE IS YOU A RESTAURANT.
06:39:35PM AS FOR THE RESIDENTIAL WAIVER, A MIXED FUSE ENVIRONMENT.
06:39:40PM THE ZONING IN THE AREA IS CONSISTENT OF THAT AS WELL.
06:39:43PM AND ALSO, THE PROPERTIES ALONG THE MIXED USE CORRIDOR.
06:39:48PM IT IS REALLY WHERE YOU WANT TO PRO MEET THESE TYPE OF USES.
06:39:51PM MY IS A GREAT CORPORATE CITIZEN, BUSINESS OPERATOR AND GREAT
06:39:56PM NEIGHBOR TO THE COMMUNITY.
06:39:58PM WE RECEIVED NO OPPOSITION TO THE REQUEST EVEN BY CLOSE-BY
06:40:03PM NEIGHBORS.
06:40:03PM HE IS USED TO HAVING THESE TYPE OF AB PERMITS ISSUED WITH
06:40:07PM THE CITY AND BEING IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PERMITS AND BEING
06:40:09PM A GOOD CITIZEN WITH THEM.
06:40:10PM IN CONCLUSION, I GUESS IT WENT OFF SCREEN -- YOU SORRY,
06:40:15PM GUYS.
06:40:15PM I WILL JUST READ IT.
06:40:17PM WE BELIEVE THE -- THE REQUEST MEETS THE GENERAL STANDARD OF
06:40:21PM 27-129 FOR THE SPECIAL USE PERMITS THAT PROVIDES FOR A NEW
06:40:25PM RESTAURANTS AT THE LOCATION.
06:40:27PM NO CHANGES TO THE SITE.
06:40:28PM MAINTAINS EXISTING FOOTPRINT.
06:40:30PM LIMITED TO THE RESTAURANT USE AND WITH THAT CONSUMPTION ON
06:40:33PM PREMISE ONLY AND ALONG THE MIXED USE CORRIDOR BUILD AND
06:40:38PM SUPPORT THIS TYPE OF USE.
06:40:39PM WITH THAT, I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS SHOULD
06:40:41PM YOU HAVE ANY, AND WE WOULD RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR
06:40:44PM APPROVAL.
06:40:45PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SO AT THIS LOCATION, IT WAS -- I THOUGHT
06:40:48PM IT WAS A MARKET THAT WAS COMING SOON.
06:40:50PM NOW THEY HAVE ABANDONED THAT AND GOING WITH A RESTAURANT
06:40:52PM WITH WHAT YOU DESCRIBED?
06:40:54PM >> THAT'S CORRECT.
06:40:55PM THE AB 1 WAS WHAT WAS CALLED NOBLE MARKET AND THE SMALLER
06:40:59PM UNIT TO THE NORTH SIDE OF WHAT I SHOWED YOU.
06:41:01PM THIS WILL EXPAND AND BECOME A FULL-BLOWN RESTAURANT.
06:41:05PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NO OUTDOOR MUSIC AND HOURS OF
06:41:08PM OPERATIONS?
06:41:09PM YOU ALREADY MENTIONED -- OKAY.
06:41:11PM >> YES.

06:41:23PM SOMETHING.

06:41:26PM NOT A CHANGING USE --
06:41:29PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I UNDERSTAND.
06:41:29PM >> KIND OF COOL TO BRING THESE CONCEPTS INTO AN OLD BUILDING
06:41:33PM IN TAMPA.

06:44:46PM AGAIN, THIS AN EXISTING STRIP CENTER.
06:44:50PM THE ALCOHOL CONCEPT WILL BE ON -- OVER HERE.
06:44:55PM THIS IS THE INTERSECTION.

06:45:21PM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:45:22PM APPLICANT?
06:45:24PM YES, SIR.
06:45:24PM >> GOOD EVENING.
06:45:32PM MY NAME IS TERRY HALEY.
06:45:37PM I REPRESENT THE OWNERS OF WHAT A LOT OF PEOPLE CALL
06:45:41PM THE S.O.G. OR THE SOG CAFE.
06:45:44PM TO MAKE IT CLEAR, IT IS THE SOUTH OF GANDY CAFE IS CONFUSING
06:45:51PM TO A LOT OF PEOPLE.
06:45:52PM ONCE YOU SAY THAT, IT IS NOT.
06:45:53PM WE ARE HERE REQUESTING AN AB 2 SMALL VENUE IN ORDER TO SELL
06:46:00PM BEER AND WINE ON PREMISE FOR CONSUMPTION AND ALSO
06:46:07PM OFF-PREMISE SALES TO BE CONSUMED OFF PREMISE.
06:46:11PM THE ESTABLISHMENT HAS BEEN IN OPERATION LITTLE OVER THREE
06:46:16PM YEARS.
06:46:16PM THEY ARE WELL KNOWN IN THE COMMUNITY.
06:46:20PM THEY HAVE A GOOD REPUTATION.
06:46:22PM IN FACT I HAVE SOMETHING I WOULD LIKE TO ENTER FROM WHAT I
06:46:27PM HAVE SEEN.
06:46:27PM EVERYTHING I HAVE BEEN TOLD WERE -- WE ARE IN 200% APPROVAL
06:46:33PM RATE OVER OPPOSITION BECAUSE I HAVE TWO APPROVALS.
06:46:37PM OKAY.
06:46:38PM ONE I GOT HERE TONIGHT FROM SOMEONE, LIKE I SAID.
06:46:43PM WOULD WANT TO ENTER THAT IN.
06:46:45PM AS FAR AS JUMPING RIGHT TO THE WAIVERS WE ARE ASKING, ONE IS
06:46:50PM FOR THE DISTANCE -- YES, DISTANCE OF THE OPERATION FROM
06:46:56PM ANOTHER ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE LOCATION.
06:47:01PM 22 FEET.
06:47:03PM THAT IS ONE OF THE NEIGHBORS IN THE CENTER.
06:47:07PM THEN IN BETWEEN WHAT I WILL CALL OUR STORE AND -- AND THE
06:47:12PM OTHER -- I WILL CALL IT -- THERE IS A NAIL SALON.
06:47:16PM SO THAT CREATES THE 22-FEET DIFFERENCE, OKAY.
06:47:19PM IT IS A MEDITERRANEAN RESTAURANT, BY THE WAY, OFFERING BEER
06:47:23PM AND WINE.
06:47:24PM OUR CONCEPT PRIMARILY A COFFEE AND TEA BREAKFAST DAYTIME
06:47:29PM BUSINESS WHICH WILL EXPAND INTO THE EARLY EVENING OFFERING
06:47:33PM SOME SPECIALTY SANDWICHES.
06:47:35PM IN FACT, THEY DO BRING IN SOME OF THE FOOD FROM OTHER VENUES
06:47:39PM THERE.
06:47:39PM BUT IT DOES HAVE A SPECIALTY NICHE TO IT.
06:47:44PM THEY -- THERE IS ALREADY AN OUTSIDE DECK.
06:47:48PM WE ARE PROPOSING TO EXPAND IT BASICALLY.
06:47:52PM IS GOES OUT 11 MORE PEOPLE.
06:47:58PM AND WITH THAT, NO DAMAGE TO THE ENVIRONMENT.
06:48:03PM NO TREES INVOLVED OR ANYTHING.
06:48:08PM THE RAIN WHEN IT GOES TO RESIDENTIAL AND THE INTERSECTION OF
06:48:14PM INTERBAY AND CANDY.
06:48:16PM CERTAINLY A MULTIPLE USE ENVIRONMENT.
06:48:18PM THERE ARE ALL TYPES OF RETAIL.
06:48:20PM THERE IS PROFESSIONAL BUILDINGS.
06:48:22PM THERE IS A -- A CHURCH THAT IS OUT OF THE RANGE.
06:48:26PM BUT LIKE I SAY, A POTPOURRI OF EVERYTHING.
06:48:29PM AND WE ARE JUST THERE.
06:48:30PM AND THE -- I THINK MOST RESIDENTS IN THAT COMMUNITY NOW ARE
06:48:36PM WELL AWARE OF THE COMMERCIAL TYPE BUSINESSES AROUND THERE.
06:48:43PM AGAIN NO OPPOSITION BUT I THINK IT IS CONDUCIVE WITH THE
06:48:52PM AREA WHICH IT IS IN THE OTHER WAIVER IS FOR PARKING.
06:49:03PM IF I -- I DO HAVE SOMETHING TO SUPPORT IT.
06:49:06PM I HAVE COPIES -- IF YOU WANT COPIES, ENTER THE WHOLE THING
06:49:11PM AND GIVE ANYTHING WHAT YOU WANT.
06:49:15PM I DID A LITTLE PRIMITIVE RESEARCH.
06:49:17PM AND CAME UP WITH CONCLUSIONS ON THE PARKING, OKAY.
06:49:22PM WHAT I DID WAS I TOOK -- I TOOK THE CENTER ITSELF.
06:49:27PM EACH INDIVIDUAL UNIT.
06:49:30PM WENT TO CODE.
06:49:31PM MULTIPLIED IT OUT.
06:49:32PM BINGO, BANGO, BONGO.
06:49:36PM I CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT AT A 100% OCCUPANCY OF ALL THE
06:49:43PM DIFFERENT USES AND STUFF, WE COME UP WITH A DEFICIT OF 19 --
06:49:47PM I THINK IT IS 19% -- YES, 19%.
06:49:50PM MY SUPPORT WILL BE THERE.
06:49:55PM I AM SURE EVERY BUSINESS, INCLUDING US, WISH WE COULD
06:49:58PM OPERATE ALL OF OUR HOURS AT 100%.
06:50:00PM BUT, UNFORTUNATELY, THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
06:50:04PM SO WHAT I DID ONE STEP FURTHER.
06:50:06PM AND AGAIN, I CAN PASS THESE OUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE I WENT --
06:50:17PM I BROKE DOWN THE BUSINESS AND THE USE AND THE HOURS OF
06:50:20PM OPERATION AND I DID MY HASH MARKS AND WHATEVER.
06:50:23PM AND EXAMPLE -- THERE IS ONLY ABOUT THREE HOURS A DAY THAT IT
06:50:28PM WOULD OVERLAP INTO THE DEFICIT BECAUSE THE OTHER MILES PER
06:50:35PM HOUR THE BUSINESSES ARE CLOSED OTHER BUSINESSES ARE CLOSED
06:50:43PM AND WE HAVE PEAK TIMES OF RESTORATION.
06:50:46PM SO LOOKING AT THE OPERATIONS, THE HOURS OF OPERATIONS, ALL
06:50:50PM THE DIFFERENT SERVICES, PLUS THROWING IN THE FACTOR OF
06:50:54PM DIFFERENT MODES OF TRANSPORTATION WHICH ARE -- WHICH HAVE
06:50:58PM DEFINITELY IN THE MIX THESE DAYS.
06:50:59PM YOU HAVE RIDE SHARE WHICH -- I THINK MOST OF OUR BUSINESS
06:51:03PM COMES RIGHT THERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:51:04PM YOU ARE GOING TOO HAVE PEOPLE ON FOOT.
06:51:07PM YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE BICYCLES, THAT THEY HAVE A BICYCLE
06:51:13PM RACK TO ACCOMMODATE THESE.
06:51:14PM YOUR SCOOTERS ARE COMING.
06:51:16PM YOU DO HAVE MASS TRANSIT.
06:51:19PM AND WITH THAT, I THINK WE MORE ATLANTA JUSTIFY THE SHORTAGE
06:51:24PM IN PARKING.
06:51:25PM SO THOSE ARE OUR THREE WAIVERS.
06:51:28PM I DON'T KNOW IF I DESCRIBED THEM ENOUGH.
06:51:30PM WE ARE JUST A NEIGHBORHOOD INDEPENDENTLY OWNED SMALL
06:51:34PM BUSINESS.
06:51:35PM COULD YOU CALL US SMALL DOG TRYING TO GET A BONE AND SURVIVE
06:51:40PM IN THIS ROUGH ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT.
06:51:44PM AND WE CERTAINLY WOULD LIKE YOUR SUPPORT AND WOULD LOVE A
06:51:47PM POSITIVE OUTCOME OF THIS.
06:51:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:51:51PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I JUST HAVE A QUICK QUESTION BECAUSE THIS
06:51:54PM ALCOHOL APPROVAL GOES WITH THE LAND AND NOT THE BUSINESS.
06:51:57PM WOULD -- WOULD YOUR CLIENT BE OKAY WITH PUTTING SOME
06:52:03PM LIMITATIONS TO ANY AMPLIFIED NOISE OUTSIDE AND/OR TIMES.
06:52:10PM WHEN ARE THE HOURS OF OPERATION?
06:52:12PM >> WELL, THE HOURS OF OPERATION CERTAINLY FELL WITHIN THE
06:52:15PM ORDINANCE.
06:52:16PM I SHOULD KNOW THIS.
06:52:17PM I DON'T.
06:52:18PM I WANT TO SAY 10 P.M. OR SOMETHING -- DON'T QUOTE ME.
06:52:23PM BUT CERTAINLY WE WOULD BE WITHIN THE ORDINANCE.
06:52:26PM OUR IDEA OF ANY MUSIC OR ANYTHING OUTSIDE WOULD BE IN THE
06:52:33PM NEIGHBORHOOD.
06:52:34PM MAYBE AS EARLY AS, LIKE, 4 OR 5:00 IN THE AFTERNOON LET'S
06:52:39PM SAY ON A SUNDAY AFTERNOON PROBABLY UNTIL ABOUT 9.
06:52:43PM AND US PUTTING IN WRITING OR WHATEVER, I WOULD LIKE TO PUSH
06:52:47PM FOR 10.
06:52:48PM BUT AS FAR AS PUTTING IT IN WRITING OR THAT BEING A
06:52:52PM REQUIREMENT, WE DON'T FORESEE THAT BEING A PROBLEM.
06:52:56PM >>LYNN HURTAK: GENERALLY WE ASK MONDAY THROUGH -- IS IT
06:53:00PM SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY UNTIL 11 P.M. AND THEN THURSDAY
06:53:04PM THROUGH SATURDAY AT 12 A.M.
06:53:07PM >> THAT CERTAINLY -- IN FACT THE HOURS OF THE BUSINESS
06:53:10PM AREN'T EVEN THAT.
06:53:11PM THEY ARE PROPOSING THE LATEST HOUR BEING OPEN IS 10 P.M.
06:53:17PM OPEN AT ALL.
06:53:18PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
06:53:19PM SO MR. COTTON -- THAT IS WHAT I AM SAYING.
06:53:25PM I UNDERSTAND -- SO WHAT -- SO -- SO THEN ON THE SITE PLAN,
06:53:31PM YOUR CLIENTS WILL BE OKAY WITH PUTTING THE -- THE AMPLIFIED
06:53:36PM NOISE AND ALCOHOL OUTDOORS ENDING AT 10 P.M.
06:53:42PM >>ERIC COTTON: SURE.
06:53:44PM >> SURE, SURE.
06:53:45PM YOU ARE SAYING -- IN DOING THAT, YOU ARE RECOMMENDING --
06:53:48PM SEVEN DAY AS WEEK FOR THAT REQUIREMENT?
06:53:50PM >>LYNN HURTAK: SURE, SURE.
06:53:52PM IF YOU WERE OPEN -- IF THAT IS WHEN YOU SAY YOU ARE CLOSING.
06:53:56PM JUST SO --
06:53:57PM >> LET ME ASK YOU THIS THOUGH.
06:53:58PM DOES THAT AFFECT HOURS OF OPERATION?
06:54:02PM LET'S SAY THEY WANTED TO STAY OPEN LATER.
06:54:05PM I AM NOT SAYING -- I AM SAYING FOR FOOD AND SUCH.
06:54:11PM NO MUSIC IS WHAT I AM SAYING.
06:54:13PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THAT IS THE THING.
06:54:14PM IF YOU WANTED TO, AGAIN, WHATEVER YOUR -- WHATEVER YOUR
06:54:22PM ASKING FOR, BUT JUST TO HAVE IT ON THE SITE PLAN SO THAT --
06:54:25PM SO THIS DOESN'T BECOME SOMETHING THAT CAN STAY OPEN UNTIL 3
06:54:29PM A.M. WITH THE NOISE.
06:54:30PM >> I UNDERSTAND THAT.
06:54:31PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WHAT WOULD THE TIME FRAMES BE WITH YOU THAT
06:54:34PM WOULD WORK.
06:54:35PM >> IDEALLY WE WOULD LIKE TO FALL INTO THE -- THE ALLOWABLE
06:54:40PM TIME THAT IS THERE NOW.
06:54:41PM AS A MAXIMUM.
06:54:42PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THE MAXIMUM TIME IS 3 A.M.
06:54:46PM >> I WOULD SAY ABSOLUTE LATEST WILL BE 11.
06:54:50PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THE INITIAL HOURS THAT YOU SUGGESTED.
06:54:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.
06:54:54PM I WILL TAKE YOUR AMENDMENT.
06:54:56PM SO -- WOULD 11 P.M. FROM SUNDAYS THROUGH WEDNESDAY WORK AND
