05:09:04PM >>ROSS SAMONS:
THIS APPLICANT WAS FILED FROM THE CITY OF
TAMPA NOVEMBER 1, 2024.
APPLICANT'S REASON FOR THE VACATING SOUTHERN PORTION OF
MARIE AVENUE HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY VACATED.
REMAINDER OF NORTH MARIE AVENUE RIGHT-OF-WAY WILL BE PART OF
A REDEVELOPMENT WITH FUTURE CROSS EASEMENTS.
ALL PROPERTY OWNERS ARE APPLICANT ON THIS REQUEST.
CREATED BY SUBDIVISION PLATT AND ACQUISITION.
THE EXISTING RIGHT-OF-WAY IS 13,3075 SQUARE FEET.
THIS IS WITHIN THE WESTSHORE OVERLAY.
HERE IS AN AERIAL VIEW OF THE APPLICANT'S PROPERTY IN RED.
SECOND APPLICANT HERE.
AND THE VACATING REQUEST IN YELLOW.
OF NORTH MARIE AVENUE.
THIS IS THE PLAT IN WHICH NORTH MARIE AVENUE WAS CREATED.
PREVIOUSLY CALLED FAIRVIEW AVENUE.
THIS IS THE IMAGE LOOKING NORTH ON MARIE AVENUE.
THIS IS AN IMAGE LOOKING SOUTH ON MARIE AVENUE.
STAFF HAS NO OBJECTION TO THIS VACATING REQUEST.
EASEMENT RESERVATION ARE REQUIRED BY TRANSPORTATION,
WASTEWATER, WATER, FRONTIER AND SPECTRUM.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS INCLUDE NATURAL RESOURCES MUST COMPLY
WITH CHAPTER 27 WITH TREE PRESERVATION AND SITE DESIGN FOR
IMPROVEMENT PLACED ADJACENT TO TREES IN VACATED AREA.

OWNERS SHALL SUBMIT A RELEASE OF EASEMENT APPLICATIONS TO
THE DIRECTOR OF CITY OF GROWTH MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT
REQUESTING THE RELEASE OF A TEMPORARY WATER EASEMENT
RESERVED AND EXECUTE AND RECORD EASEMENT AGREEMENT WHICH
SHALL INCLUDE A BILL OF SALE.
AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
05:11:02PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
ALL RIGHT, THANKS.
DO WE HAVE AN APPLICANT FOR ITEM NUMBER 2?
COME ON.
YOU.
05:11:14PM >> TRUETT GARDNER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
CHAIRMAN, WE ARE HAPPY -- WHATEVER YOUR PLEASURE IS.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE WE CAN -- SEPARATE?
THAT'S FINE AS WELL.
SO WE WILL HANDLE THE VACATING FIRST.
AND THEN THE REZONING.
THE TWO ARE TIED TOGETHER.
WE WERE GOING TO PUT THEM ALL TOGETHER IN ONE 15-MINUTE
PRESENTATION, BUT THIS IS A ABSOLUTELY FINE.
STAFF DID A GREAT JOB OF COVERING WHAT THIS IS -- AND MAYBE
FOR THE SAKE OF TIME.
I WILL GO AHEAD AND INTRODUCE THE ENTIRE TEAM.
WITH ME TONIGHT IS THE LOCAL OWNERSHIP GROUP.
MITCHELL RICE, WHO IS APPEARING VIRTUALLY.
AND SAM LINSKY AND THE DEVELOPER IS LESEE DEVELOPMENT WITH
MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT WITH PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE
SOUTH EAST UNITED STATES.
HERE IS JOHN FLYNN, MATT GORLAY, AND JAMES McARTHUR.
TODD PRESSMAN WILL BE PRESENTING AND SCOTT GILNER WITH
KIMLEY-HORN.
RICKY PETERIKA WITH DARK MOSS.
05:12:23PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ON OUR SCREEN, WE SEE THE CLOSED
CAPTIONING.
IS THERE ANY WAY TO SHRINK THE CLOSED CAPTIONING OR MOVE IT?
BECAUSE IT BLOCKS SOME OF THE IMAGES.
05:12:30PM >> CAN YOU SEE THAT?
05:12:45PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THEY ARE REWORKING.
THERE WE GO.
THANKS.
THEY ARE GOING TO BRING IT BACK UP.
05:12:50PM >> NO PROBLEM.
OKAY.
SO I SEE AN OVERVIEW HERE REGARDING THE VACATING.
CAN YOU SEE IT?
05:13:06PM >> EVERYBODY HAS GOT IT?
05:13:07PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE GOT IT.
05:13:09PM >> GOOD.
ON THE LEFT, WHICH I THINK IS ALSO YOUR LEFT IN BLUE, IS AN
OUTLINE OF THIS PROPERTY IN QUESTION.
TAMPA COMMONS WAS ORIGINALLY GOING TO BE ONE DEVELOPMENT
THAT SPANNED -- AGAIN, JUST TO ORIENT YOU, KENNEDY ON THE
SOUTH.
DALE MABRY ON THE WEST.
THAT IS NORTH B ON THE NORTH.
AND THEN NORTH STERLING ON THE EAST.
AND SO TAMPA COMMONS WAS ORIGINALLY CONTEMPLATED TO BE THE
FULL BLOCK FROM NORTH B ALL THE WAY SOUTH TO KENNEDY.
THINGS HAPPENED IN THE ECONOMY.
OBVIOUSLY THE 13-STORY BUILDING AND PARKING GARAGE GOT
DEVELOPED ON THE SOUTH END AND SUBSEQUENTLY THE BARNES AND
NOBLE AND OFFICE DEPOT CAME IN LATER.
THIS REZONING WILL BE REALLY SUBJECT OF THE OR THE DEPOT
SITE.
BUT AS IT RELATES TO THE VACATING, EVERYTHING -- AND I WILL
USE -- I GUESS I CAN'T USE MY POINTER.
BUT EVERYTHING HAS BEEN VACATED ABSENT THE SMALL STUB THAT
RUNS FROM NORTH B AND YOU CAN KIND OF FOLLOW THE ASPHALT
DOWN TO WHERE IT DEAD-ENDS.
AND SO WHAT WE ARE DOING IS JUST VACATING THAT PORTION WHICH
YOU CAN MORE CLEARLY SEE ON -- ON THE RIGHT.
AS ROSS MENTION, TRANSPORTATION EASEMENTS WILL BE GRANTED
BACK.
SIDEWALKS WILL BE PUT IN PLACE.
AND BUILDINGS WILL BE ON THAT PORTION.
WE ARE NOT UTILIZING ANY OF THE DENSITY GAINED FROM THAT.
BASICALLY WE ARE JUST CLEARING A RIGHT-OF-WAY THAT HAPPENED
-- I DON'T KNOW WHY WHEN THEY VACATE IT ORIGINALLY THEY
DIDN'T VACATE THAT PORTION.
THAT IS WHAT THAT IS.
AND SECONDLY, A LITTLE BIT OF COMPLEXITY TO THIS WHICH I
WILL GO AHEAD AND GET INTO NOW.
WHICH IS ON THIS SLIDE, YOU CAN SEE THE SMALL GREEN
TRIANGLE.
THAT WAS ACTUALLY OWNED BY RMC AS THE CURRENT OWNER.
THE PREDECESSOR AND TITLE, THEY DEEDED THAT PROPERTY TO THE
CITY.
I ASSUME FOR MANEUVERABILITY OF GETTING INTO THE OFFICE
DEPOT.
AT THE NEXT HEARING, WE WOULD BE LUCKY ENOUGH TO PROCEED,
THERE WILL BE A PURCHASE AGREEMENT WHERE RMC WILL BASICALLY
BE BUYING BACK LAND THEY GAVE TO THE CITY.
AND PRETTY UNIQUE WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH THOSE FUNDS
THAT I WILL GET INTO IN A SECOND.
BUT I WANTED TO GIVE YOU A COMPLETE PICTURE OF THE VACATING
WHICH IS THE PORTION HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW.
AND ALSO THAT GREEN TRIANGLE NOT SUBJECT TO THE VACATING BUT
SUBJECT TO THE SEPARATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT.
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE ON THAT PORTION OF
THE APPLICATION.
AND SHOULD YOU NOT BE READY TO PROCEED WITH THE REZONING.
05:15:46PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YES, MA'AM.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
05:15:48PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SO THAT SECTION IS NOW KNOWN AS NORTH MARIE
AVENUE?
05:15:53PM >> CORRECT.
05:15:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
AND SO EVEN WITH THE REZONING -- OR I AM
SORRY, EVEN WITH THE VACATING, THAT WILL STILL ACT AS A
DRIVEWAY.
05:16:03PM >> YES.
05:16:03PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BECAUSE THAT IS THE BACK WAY TO ALDI, JUST
GOING TO THROW THAT OUT THERE.
05:16:08PM >> BACK WAY TO ALDI.
EVEN MORE IMPORTANT, THE VILLAGE INN TOO.
05:16:13PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
VERY IMPORTANT.
WANTED TO THROW THAT OUT THERE.
PEOPLE WILL STILL BE ABLE TO GET TO THEIR GROCERY STORE.
05:16:18PM >> 100% AND VILLAGE INN WILL GAIN OWNERSHIP OF THE WESTERN
PORTION OF THAT, BUT, AGAIN, IT IS FUNCTION BETTER THAN IT
DOES TODAY.
SO YOU WILL HAVE BETTER ACCESS TO THE VILLAGE INN AND
THE ALDI.
05:16:32PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
FREE PIE WEDNESDAY WITH ANY PURCHASE.
05:16:38PM >> THERE YOU GO.
05:16:40PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANYTHING FURTHER TO YOUR PRESENTATION
BEFORE I GO TO PUBLIC COMMENT?
ANYONE IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?
THE ONLY PERSON I HAVE REGISTERED IS MITCHELL RICE, BUT HE
IS PART OF YOUR APPLICATION.
05:16:50PM >> CORRECT.
05:16:52PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANYONE IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO
SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 2, JUST THE VACATING.
A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
SECONDED FROM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.

AND WE MADE A FULL CIRCLE BACK AROUND TO THE SITE TO THAT
ACCESS THAT WILL BE PROVIDED FROM NORTH STERLING AVENUE.
05:32:50PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I THINK YOU BROKE THE RECORD FOR PICTURES.
05:32:53PM >>SAMUEL THOMAS:
I WALKED THAT WHOLE SITE, AND I WAS SWEATING
BY THE TIME I WAS DONE.
ALL RIGHTY.
HERE IS THE SITE PLAN AGAIN.
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW AND COMPLIANCE STAFF FOUND IT
INCONSISTENT DUE TO THE FINDINGS FROM TRANSPORTATION RELATED
TO ACCESS TO THE -- THE COMMERCIAL ACCESS TO LOCAL STREET.
SHOULD IT BE THE PLEASURE OF COUNCIL TO APPROVE THE
APPLICATION AND WAIVE MODIFICATIONS TO THE SITE PLAN AS
SHOWN ON THE REVISION SHEET MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN FIRST
AND SECOND READING AND THESE WILL NOT RESOLVES THE
INCONSISTENT FINDING.
I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
05:33:27PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
GREAT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
APPLICANT?
05:33:34PM >> GOOD EVENING, AGAIN, TRUETT GARDNER, 300 NORTH ASHLEY
DRIVE.
PRIVILEGE TO BE IN FRONT OF YOU TONIGHT.
A LONG TIME COMING.
WE FILED IT IN 2023.
WITHDRAW IT.
FILED IT AGAIN.
REALLY AN EFFORT OF COLLABORATION.
AND I WANTED TO SPECIFICALLY THANK THE NEIGHBORHOOD
ASSOCIATION.
MARCUS MODES IS HERE TO SPEAK TONIGHT.
ALSO YOUR ZONING STAFF.
WE WORE SAM OUT JUST WALKING AROUND TAKING PICTURES.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
AND THEN -- I GUESS IMPORTANTLY OUR CLIENT, TOO, FOR HAVING
THE PATIENCE AND STICKING WITH US.
AND TODD PRESSMAN WILL COVER THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE ZONING
AND I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO COVER TWO THINGS OUTSIDE
THE PURVIEW OF THE ZONING THAT I DISCUSSED WITH YOUR LEGAL
DEPARTMENT, AND I JUST WANTED TO MENTION FOR THE RECORD.
ONE, IF YOU RECALL DURING THE VACATING I TOUCHED ON THAT
LITTLE GREEN TRIANGULAR PIECE.
THAT WILL BE THE SUBJECT OF THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT.
INTERESTING SITUATION WHERE THE LAND WAS GIVEN BY MY CLIENT.
AND THEY ARE KIND OF IN THE SAME SITUATION TO BUY THE LAND
THEY GAVE BACK FROM THE CITY.
AND SO WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH THAT PURCHASE PRICE IS
THOSE FUNDS WILL BE DEVOTED TO THE ECHEVARIA PARK.
AND THAT WILL BE PART OF THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT DEVELOPED BY
THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION AS WELL AS THE CITY ATTORNEY'S
OFFICE.
WE THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO PUT ON THE RECORD.
SECONDLY, OUTSIDE THE PURVIEW OF THE VERY ZONING, WE HAVE
AGREED TO SOME OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS, WHICH WE HANDLED
THROUGH A LETTER AGREEMENT WITH THE OVERHEAD PARK
ASSOCIATION.
RUN THROUGH THOSE.
FOUR-WAY STOP ON NORTH B AND STERLING.
CROSSWALKS ACROSS NORTH B AND ACROSS STERLING.
AN INTERESTING MEDIAN IN THE MIDDLE THAT HAS A SIDEWALK THAT
RUNS TO THE PARK.
THOSE ARE THERE AND ALONG STERLING, SINCE WE ARE ACROSS FROM
HOMES, WANTED TO DO THE BEST WE COULD TO MITIGATE ANY
IMPACTS THERE.
IMPROVEMENT ON THE MEDIAN THAT RUNS ALONG STERLING FROM
KENNEDY TO NORTH B WITH ENHANCED LANDSCAPING, SAFER
CHANNELIZATION INTO THE PROPERTY AND ONGOING MAINTENANCE AND
IRRIGATION INSTALLED IN THAT.
WE HAVE A LETTER OF AGREEMENT GONE TO THE ASSOCIATION, BUT I
WANTED TO STATE THAT ON THE RECORD.
AND WE HAVE THAT LETTER AGREEMENT, IF MARTY WILL TAKE IT, WE
WILL SUBMIT TO THE RECORD TOO.
LASTLY, BEFORE I HAND THINGS OVER TO TODD, OUR CLIENTS WORKED
HARD ON GETTING LETTERS OF SUPPORT AND PROVIDED THOSE THIS
AFTERNOON.
THESE ARE FROM OWNERS OF PROPERTY IN AND AROUND -- IN AND
AROUND THE VICINITY, SO I WANT TO PUT THEM INTO THE RECORD.
I WILL TURN THINGS OVER TO TODD.
05:36:32PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MEMBERS AND MR. CHAIRMAN, TODD
PRESSMAN, 200 SECOND AVENUE SOUTH, YOU NUMBER 451 IN ST.
PETERSBURG.
IS THE POWERPOINT UP?
REZ 25-05.
I WANT TO THANK THE STAFF FOR THEIR HARD WORK.
AS TRUETT, IT SAID, THIS HAS BEEN A LONG-TIME COMING BUT
MARCHING ORDERS FROM DAY ONE HAVE BEEN FROM TRANSPARENCY,
PRIMARY EMPHASIS TO SOLVE ISSUES AND CONCERNS THAT AROSE
DURING THE FIRST RENDITION WHICH YOU DID NOT SEE.
THAT HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL.
JUST TO GIVE YOU AN OVERVIEW, IT HAS BEEN -- 36REDUCTION IN
THE NUMBER OF FLOORS.
25% REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF UNITS.
TREE RETENTION.
GREEN SPACE.
AND A POORLY WORN FLOOD ZONE X.
LOOK CAN AT THE POWERPOINT, WE ARE LOOKING AT CENTRAL TAMPA
AS SHOWN BY STAFF.
320 UNITS, SQUARE FEET OF OFFICE.
SLIDES ARE NOT MOVING -- LOCATED AT DEAL MABRY AND KENNEDY.
PROPERTY PRAISER HAS IT AS YOU'RE WARE.
AND, AGAIN, WE ARE IN FLOOD ZONE X.
THE LOCATION -- WE HAVE VILLAGE INN, WHICH EVERYONE KNOWS,
PARTICULARLY ALL THE POLITICAL FOLKS.
USE RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
UP FRONT IN THE SEVEN-FLOOR PARKING GARAGE AND ONE BUILDING
THAT HAS 13 FLOORS BOTH OFF THE PROPERTY BUT VERY HIGH AND
VERY INTENSIVE.
AND THIS THE REAR OF THE SITE.
COUNCILMEMBERS, CRITICALLY IMPORTANT IS THE FUTURE LAND USE
CATEGORIES RMU-100, THE HIGHEST CATEGORY IN THE CITY AND THE
COUNCIL HAS BEEN MOVING FORWARD TO ADD DENSITY AND HEIGHT
ALONG THE KENNEDY CORRIDOR.
WE FEEL THIS IS A SPOT THAT THIS PROJECT CERTAINLY BELONGS.
THE ISSUE REALLY BEFORE YOU IS RESIDENTIAL UNITS IN C AND IN
THE REAR ON THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN.
AS YOU HEARD, IT INCLUDES WALK-UP UNITS, SIX-FOOT SIDEWALKS,
STEP-DOWN BUILDING HEIGHT AND INTERNAL YARDS.
WE HAVE SUPPORT FROM ALL THE DIFFERENT COUNTY DEPARTMENTS,
PLANNING COMMISSION AND REVIEWING AGENCIES.
AS TRUETT INDICATED, HISTORY OF IT MAY OF '23 WHEN THE FIRST
RENDITION CAME THROUGH.
IT DID NOT MAKE IT TO COUNCIL BECAUSE ISSUES CAME UP.
I GIVE CREDIT TO THE DEVELOPERS.
THEY WENT THEY WENT BACK TO SQUARE ONE AND CHANGED THIS
PROJECT PRETTY SUBSTANTIALLY.
IT CAME BACK 11 FLOORS AND 400 UNITS.
WHAT IS PROPOSED IS SEVEN FLOORS, 320 UNITS.
WE SUPERIMPOSED WHAT IS PROPOSED IN THE RED COMPARED TO THE
OLD PLAN, A 30% REDUCTION OF FLOORS, 80 UNITS REDUCE.
THIS IS A COMPARABLE TO IT THE ONE BUILDING I SHOWED YOU OUT
FRONT AND THE EXISTING PARKING GARAGE OFF THE PROPERTY ON
KENNEDY.
THIS IS WHAT WE CONSIDER TO BE A BEAUTIFUL ELEVATION OF WHAT
IS PROPOSED.
AND, AGAIN, A COMPARABLE.
THE OLD PLAN 11-STORY 400 UNITS NEW PLAN SEVEN FLOORS, 320
UNITS OVER A YEAR AND A HALF OF WORK THAT WE WERE ABLE TO
COME TO REAL SUCCESS BEFORE YOU.
THERE IS AN APPROVED STREETSCAPE I WANT TO SHOW YOU.
THIS IS LOOKING AT STERLING DOWN TOWARD KENNEDY.
TO FOCUS IN ON THIS AREA WHICH THE PLANNING COMMISSION VERY
STRONGLY SUGGESTED AND DIRECTED TO WORK WITH, WHICH CAME OUT
TO BE A GREAT ASSET TO THE PROJECT.
AND THAT IS THE FIRST THREE FLOORS.
FIRST THREE FLOORS AS INDICATED A BEAUTIFUL BUILDING AND A
STREETSCAPE AND SETBACKS OF THE BUILDING AND YOU SEE IN THE
NORTH STERLING IN THE RIGHT.
THE WALK-UP UNITS TEN FOOT AND FIVE FOOT AFTER THE THIRD
FLOOR.
NOW REALLY IMPORTANT COMMISSIONERS -- OR COUNCILMEMBERS,
SEVEN WAIVERS, BUT CRITICALLY, FIVE OF THEM ARE
PASS-THROUGHS OR CARRYOVERS FROM THE ORIGINALLY APPROVED
ZONING.
SO THERE IS TWO OTHERS.
ONE IS REGARDING 50% TRANSPARENCY OF THE GROUND LEVEL WHICH
IS TYPICALLY FOR RETAIL COMMERCIAL FOR DISPLAY WINDOWS BUT
THESE WILL HAD BEEN INDIVIDUAL RESIDENTIAL UNITS AND PRIVACY
IS CALLED FOR AND WE ARE ASKING FOR A WAIVER TO THAT IN
TERMS OF THE GROUND LEVEL OF BUILDING C FOR THE WALK-UP
RESIDENTIAL UNITS.
AND RICKY PETERIKA WILL SPEAK OF THE LAST ONE AND COME UP
AFTER MYSELF TO TALK ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND GREEN
SPACE.
IF I MAY TURN IT OVER TO RICKY, MR. CHAIRMAN.
05:41:23PM >> THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
RICKY PETERIKA WITH DARK MOSS.
I HAVE BEEN SWORN.
I WILL FIRST SPEAK TO THE GRAND TREE IN QUESTION WEST NORTH
B, LIVE OAK, C-9 DUE TO HAZARD OF NORTH B.
REVISE THAT RATING TO A C-6.
HISTORICALLY GOOD HEALTH WITH FAIR STRUCTURE AND FAIR FORM.
WE ARE REQUESTING REMOVAL, BECAUSE IF WE MAINTAIN THE 20
FEET WHERE THE BUILDING CURRENTLY SET, WE WOULD BE REMOVING
TOO MUCH CANOPY BECAUSE IT TRENDS SOUTH.
IN ORDER TO NOT REMOVE EXCESS CANOPY, THE REQUIRED SETBACK
WILL BE 36 FEET FROM THE TREE.
WE PREPARED TWO REASONABLE RECONFIGURATION OPTIONS.
ONE ADDED A FLOOR TO THE -- TO THE SUBJECT SITE.
AND ONE IMPACTED THE EXISTING BUILDING TO THE SOUTH BY
SHIFTING SOUTH AND REDUCING PARKING BY 104 SPACES.
GREEN SPACE IS SLIGHTLY MORE COMPLY DATED DUE TO THE MIXED
USE OF THE SITE.
THE MAIN TAKEAWAY THAT ALL GREEN SPACE HAS BEEN PROVIDED AND
EVEN WITH ESTIMATION OF HARD SCAPE AREAS WITHIN THE
COURTYARD GREEN SPACE TO SPARE IN THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.
WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO INCREASE SETBACKS FROM THE ORIGINAL
DESIGN ON STERLING AND NORTH B AND ALL FACADES ACCOMMODATE
TYPE I SHADE TREES WHICH ALIGN TO THE SHADE TREE DISCUSSION
IN PRIOR CASES AND WITH THE WESTSHORE OVERLAY.
THANK YOU.
I WILL TURN IT BACK OVER.
05:43:27PM >> THAT IS ALL THAT WE HAVE, BUT WILL BE HAPPY TO STAND FOR
ANY QUESTIONS.
AND, AGAIN, WANTED TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR WORKING WITH US ON
THIS PROJECT WILL.
05:43:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANY QUESTIONS?
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT PUSHES TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?
YES?
COME ON UP.
ONE AT A TIME.
I KNOW YOU WERE BOTH SWORN IN.
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
YES, SIR.
05:43:51PM >> HELLO, MITCHELL STANCIL.
I LIVE 216 NORTH CLEARVIEW AVENUE, WHICH IS ONE BLOCK EAST OF
STERLING.
I AM NOT OPPOSED TO THE DEVELOPMENT, BUT I AM KIND OF
OPPOSED TO THE ENCROACHMENT OF THE DEVELOPMENT INTO OUR
NEIGHBORHOOD.
CURRENTLY, WHERE ALL STRUCTURES ARE, IT HAS GOT TO BE
A 50-FOOT SETBACK.
BUT SAW ALL THE PHOTOS.
THE PARKING GARAGE WHICH IS THE HIGHEST STRUCTURE CLOSEST TO
MY NEIGHBORHOOD IS -- IS PUSHED FURTHER SOUTH.
SO IT DOES ENCROACH IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD FROM, LIKE, NORTH A
BY MAYBE THREE LOTS.
BUT WHERE THEY ARE GOING TO BE BUILDING NOW, LOOKING AT MY
BACK YARD AND MY BACK WINDOW, I WILL BE SEEING A HIGH-RISE.
BUT ALL THAT BE -- I DO WANT TO BRING UP A COUPLE OF THINGS.
BESIDES THE SETBACK, OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS BASICALLY
LANDLOCKED FROM ACCESS.
THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN LEAVE ANYWHERE FROM HIMES, KENNEDY OR
DALE MABRY IS BY TAKING A RIGHT-HAND TURN OR GOING TO GRAY
STREET.
IF YOU WERE PUTTING 320 APARTMENTS AND THOSE PEOPLE NEED TO
GO TO HIMES, THEY ARE GOING TO GO NORTH B AND GO TO HIMES OR
DOWN NORTH A WHICH IS ALREADY HAPPENING WITH THE OFFICE
COMPLEX.
AND WITH ALDI GOING IN THERE, IT IS ADDING MORE TRAFFIC.
I WOULD HOPE THERE WOULD BE SOME CONSIDERATION WITH THAT.
THEY ARE PROPOSING WALK-UP UNITS.
I WALK MYSELF.
I WALK OVER TO NORTH HYDE PARK WHERE THERE IS TONS OF
APARTMENT DEVELOPMENT WHICH ARE BUILT BASICALLY, BASED OFF
OF YOUR GUIDELINES, WITHIN TEN FEET OF THE SIDEWALK AND
THERE IS PARKING.
NO PARKING ON STERLING, BUT IF YOU HAVE AN APARTMENT YOU CAN
WALK TO, APARTMENT ON STERLING.
STERLING WIDER STREET, AND -- AND I WATCH PEOPLE GOING TO
THAT OFFICE COMPLEX.
THEY TURN OFF OF -- OFF OF DALE MABRY AND TAKE GRAY DOWN TO
STERLING TO GET THERE.
I MEAN, I UNDERSTAND THE TRAFFIC FLOW.
SO -- CONSIDER THE FACT THAT ACCESS IS VERY LIMITED.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD HAS A HIGH VOLUME OF TRAFFIC.
NOT RELATED TO IT, BUT THERE HAS BEEN MULTIPLE WATER MAIN
BREAKS ON HIMES.
WHEN THAT HAPPENS, TRAFFIC IS DIVERTED THROUGH MY
NEIGHBORHOOD.
THOSE ARE THE THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO CONSIDER.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
NEXT SPEAKER, COME ON UP.
ANYBODY ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK?
YES, SIR, COME AND STATE YOUR NAME.
05:46:36PM >> IS THE MICROPHONE -- YOU GUYS GOT ME?
OKAY, PERFECT.
MARCUS SMOOTS.
CLEARVIEW AVENUE.
I AM ON THE BOARD OF THE OAKBROOK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
I DID WANT TO STATE THAT THE DEVELOPER CERTAINLY WORKED WITH
OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND WE -- THE MAJORITY OF US DO FEEL WE
HAVE BEEN HEARD.
IF WE DIDN'T FEEL HEARD, THERE WOULD BE A LOT MORE HERE THAN
THE TWO OF US, SO I CERTAINLY APPRECIATE THAT.
AND THEN REVISIONS ARE MADE.
NOTHING IS PERFECT BUT THIS EVOLVED IN WAY WE ARE
APPRECIATIVE OF.
OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS ARE KEY TO THIS FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
TO.
I WANTED TO RESTATE THAT AND APPRECIATE THE DEVELOPERS PUT
THAT IN WRITING.
TRAFFIC CONSIDERATIONS THAT MY FELLOW NEIGHBORHOOD MEMBER
RAISED IS REAL AND SOME OF THAT WILL BE ADDRESSED IN THE
OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENT THAT WERE MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY.
WE ARE THANKFUL FOR THIS AND LOOKING FORWARD FOR WHAT WILL
HAPPEN NEXT.
THANK YOU.
05:47:40PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU.
ANYTHING ELSE?
05:47:44PM >> MOTION TO CLOSE --
05:47:45PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
I HAVE A QUESTION IS TO MR. GARDNER, THE
GENTLEMAN MENTIONED THE WALK-UP UNITS ON STERLING AND NORTH
HYDE PARK, ON ROME AVENUE, THERE IS WALK-UP UNITS, BUT
ON ROME, AREA FOR THE RESIDENT TO PARK IN FRONT OF THE UNIT
AND WALK UP.
BEING THAT STERLING IS NOT THAT WIDE OF A ROAD, ANY PARKING
OR JUST A WALK-UP UNIT AND THEY HAVE TO FIND THEIR OWN
PARKING IN THE PARKING GARAGE.
05:48:12PM >> WE DO NOT HAVE ON-STREET AT ALL.
THAT PARK ALSO BE SELF-CONTAINED IN THE GARAGE.
05:48:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
DO YOU NEED ANY REBUTTAL.
05:48:24PM >> I DON'T THINK SO.
I WANT TO THANK MARCUS AND HIS GROUP FOR WORKING WITH US.
A CONSTANT FLOW AND I THINK WE HAVE GOTTEN TO A GREAT PLACE
AND I UNDERSTAND THE OTHER GENTLEMAN AND HIS CONCERN.
I THINK THE FACT OF THIS IS THAT HE GOT RMU-100 OUTSIDE OF
THE CDB IS THE MOST INTENSE, BUT I FEEL THAT RESIDENTIAL
WILL BE A MUCH GETTER FIT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAN
HIGH-IMPACT COMMERCIAL WHICH WOULD BE COMPLETELY SLATED FOR
AND UNDERSTANDABLY.
05:48:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WHEN HIMES IS REDONE NORTH OF KENNEDY,
YOU CAN ONLY TAKE A RIGHT-HAND TURN TO GO SOUTH ON HIMES
COMING OUT OF THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
OVER THE YEARS, I HEARD COMPLAINTS, YOU CAN'T DRIVE ACROSS
HIMES BECAUSE THE MEDIAN IS NOW BLOCKED.
ACCESS POINTS ARE.
PEOPLE TAKING GRAY STREET TO DALE MABRY AND NORTH A AND
NORTH B.
AGAIN WILL ONLY TAKE TO YOU HIMES TO TAKE A RIGHT, AND THEN
HAVE KENNEDY TRAFFIC, WHICH IS VERY -- VERY, VERY BUSY.
AND I UNDERSTAND THE CONCERNS WHEN YOU SAY LANDLOCKED
BECAUSE OF TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENTS OVER THE YEARS HAVE
CHANGED THE TRAFFIC FLOW FOR THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
WITH SO MANY UNITS, I KNOW IT IS A BIG CONCERN.
SO WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
05:49:37PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
SECOND.
05:49:39PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I JUST COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.
WHEN TALKING OF STERLING, AND YOU HAVE THE MEDIAN IN BETWEEN
STERLING.
ARE -- DO THOSE HAVE CURBS?
05:49:53PM >> THE MEDIANS?
YES, THEY DO.
AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I MENTIONED -- I DON'T THINK WE
HAVE A GREAT AERIAL, BUT TO HELP WITH THAT TRAFFIC, WE ARE
GOING TO RESHAPE THOSE MEDIANS TO ALLOW FOR CHANNELIZATION
AND SOME STACKING IN WHICH SHOULD HELP THAT NORTHBOUND FLOW
ON STERLING CONTINUE AND NOT BE JAMMED UP BY PEOPLE TRYING
TO TURN LEFT MID-BLOCK INTO THE SITE.
05:50:20PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
MY INTEREST LIES MAINLY IN THE GENTLEMAN'S
CONCERN OF ON-STREET PARKING WHICH I CAN ABSOLUTELY SEE HOW
THIS CAN HAPPEN.
SO IF THERE IS A CURB ON BOTH SIDES OF, SAY, THIS -- THIS IS
THE SOUTHBOUND LANE THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT.
IS IT -- IT IS -- IS IT WIDE ENOUGH FOR SOMEONE TO PARK AND
SOMEONE TO BE ABLE TO GO BY?
05:50:45PM >> IT IS NOT.
THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF THE WIDE MEDIAN IS THAT THE
RIGHT-OF-WAY ISN'T ALL THAT EXPANSIVE.
SO YOU HAVE THE MEDIANS THAT -- REALLY YOU ONLY HAVE TRAFFIC
LANES NORTH AND SOUTH AND THE INABILITY TO ON-STREET PARK I
THINK IS YOUR QUESTION?
05:51:01PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YEAH, HOW WIDE IS THAT STREET THERE THOUGH?
05:51:11PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ONE LANE SOUTH AND ONE LANE NORTH.
05:51:13PM >> ROSS HAD THAT PLAT.
JONATHAN HAS GOT IT.
05:51:25PM >>JONATHAN SCOTT:
MOBILITY.
I DON'T KNOW IF PEOPLE CAN PARK THERE --
05:51:33PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YOU HAVE TO COME UP, SIR.
05:51:35PM >> I AM SORRY.
05:51:36PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD.
05:51:43PM >> MITCHELL STANCIL, NORTH CLEARVIEW.
THERE ARE RESIDENTS ON THE EAST SIDE OF STERLING.
THE MEDIAN SUPPORTS HIGH POWERED VOLTAGE POWER LINES.
BUT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE PARKED THEIR CAR IN FRONT OF
THEIR HOUSE, AND TRAFFIC STILL FLOWS DOWN.
AND THE -- AND THE ROAD IS THE SAME WIDTH ON EITHER SIDE OF
THAT MEDIAN.
05:52:08PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU, SIR.
05:52:10PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SO MY QUESTION WOULD BE, IF THERE IS ROOM, IS
THERE A WAY THAT WE COULD BUILD IN PARKING, IF THERE IS ROOM
FOR IT ALREADY IF -- IF WE COULD SIMPLY DESIGNATE THE
PARKING INSTEAD OF JUST ALLOWING IT ON THE STREET.
SO WHAT I AM SAYING IS -- I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING -- I CAN'T
REALLY -- SO -- SO IF THE STREET IS WIDE ENOUGH, IF WE COULD
SIMPLY PUT SOME LINES ON -- I MEAN IF RIGHT NOW YOU CAN JUST
PARK THERE.
IS THERE A WAY WE CAN ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY PUT DESIGNATED
SPACES.
SAY THAT YOU CAN CRAM TEN CARS IN THERE BUT REALLY
COMFORTABLY AND SAFELY THERE SHOULD ONLY BE EIGHT CARS
PARKED ON THAT STREET WITH BULB OUT AT KENNEDY AND NORTH A
-- OR NORTH B, RATHER, SO PEOPLE CAN'T -- I GUESS IT WOULD
BE NORTH A AND NORTH B.
SO PEOPLE CAN'T PARK ALL THE WAY TO THE CORNER.
AM I MAKING SENSE?
05:53:21PM >>CATE WELLS:
IF I MAY RESPOND TO THAT QUESTION.
CATE WELLS FROM THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT AND THANK YOU, AGAIN,
FOR ALLOWING ME TO PARTICIPATE REMOTELY.
DISCUSSION OF THE OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENT AND PARKING ON THE
STREET.
THAT IS -- I WOULD SUGGEST TO COUNCIL THAT IS NOT RELATED TO
THIS REZONING.
ANY IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE DONE IN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY WILL BE
DONE BY SEPARATE RIGHT-OF-WAY PERMIT AND ANALYZED BY THAT
STAFF.
WHEN THE APPLICANT CAME TO US INITIALLY ABOUT WANTING TO ADD
SOME CONDITIONS TO THE SITE PLAN OR DO A SEPARATE
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT TO ADDRESS THESE OFF-SITE
IMPROVEMENTS.
IT WAS DETERMINED BECAUSE THESE WERE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WERE
DISCUSSED BETWEEN THE APPLICANT AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND NOT
REQUESTED BY THE CITY, THAT THEY ARE BEST ADDRESSED
SEPARATELY WHICH I BELIEVE TRUETT ADDRESSED AT THE BEGINNING
OF HIS PRESENTATION AND THEY WILL THEN BE PERMITTED
SEPARATELY THROUGH RIGHT-OF-WAY.
SO THE DISCUSSION ABOUT THE -- THE DETAILED DISCUSSION THAT
WE ARE NOW GETTING INTO CONCERNS ME A BIT, BECAUSE IT WOULD
BE SEPARATE AND APART FROM THE REZONING THAT IS BEFORE YOU.
HURTAK HORIZON OKAY, THANK YOU.
05:54:33PM >> TO HELP, I WILL STICK TO FACTS AND NOT GO OUTSIDE OF
THE REZONING AS MISS WELLS MENTIONED.
THERE ARE 580 PARKING SPACES REQUIRED.
WE ARE PROVIDING 615.
HOPEFULLY THAT WILL HELP IN NOT PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE
STREETS.
YOUR STAFF WAS GREAT HANDING ME INFORMATION.
IT APPEARS THAT FROM THE EASTERN CURB OF THE PROPERTY LINE
ON STERLING TO THAT CURB MEDIAN IS JUST OVER 16 FEET.
SO IT IS ALREADY TIGHT.
SO HARD FOR TWO CARS TO GET BY US.
AND NOT ARGUING THAT SOMEBODY HAVEN'T DONE IT, BUT NOT
SOMETHING THAT IS CONDUCIVE TO ON-STREET PARKING.
05:55:10PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
OKAY.
SINCE THERE IS NOTHING I CAN SAY ABOUT THAT, I WOULD -- I
DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I THINK THE
NEIGHBORHOOD WOULD NEED TO BRING UP BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
READING.
BUT I ALSO JUST WANTED TO SAY, I AM VERY APPRECIATIVE OF
FOLKS LISTENING TO THE CONVERSATION ABOUT TYPE 1 SHADE TREES
IN MEDIANS WHERE THERE ARE SIDEWALKS.
SO APPRECIATE THAT.
05:55:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE.
FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
SECONDED FROM COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
OPPOSED.
COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA, ARE YOU COMFORTABLE READING ITEM
NUMBER 8 WITH THE REVISION SHEET?
05:55:48PM >>LUIS VIERA:

05:56:32PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YES.
05:56:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I JUST WANT TO STATE SOMETHING FOR THE
RECORD ON THIS.
THIS IS -- THIS IS A GREAT PROJECT.
THE ONLY DISAPPOINTMENT IT ISN'T MORE INTENSE.
IF NOT HERE, THEN WHERE.
THIS IS IN A TRANSPORTATION CORRIDOR.
WHERE WE SHOULD BE BUILDING INTENSITY AND DENSITY.
AND THIS IS A CRITICAL PART AS WHEN WE DEVELOP THE CITY OF
TAMPA.
AND I KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT WERE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO
THESE LOCATIONS.
THERE WILL BE IMPACT ON THESE NEIGHBORHOODS.
IF YOU LIVE WITHIN A CITY BLOCK OF ONE OF THE MAJOR
TRANSPORTATION CORRIDORS IN THE FUTURE, YOUR NEIGHBORS ARE
GOING TO BE IMPACTED BY THIS DENSITY SO I PROBABLY VOTE YES.
05:57:09PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:

SO -- WHAT IS YOUR NAME, MA'AM?
[INAUDIBLE]
06:14:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
OKAY, GO AHEAD.
I GUESS WE WANTED TO SHARE, LIKE, THE APPROACH TO WANTING TO
CREATE A MULTIFAMILY THAN TWO SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES THERE.
WE WANT TO TAKE A CONSERVATIVE ECONOMIC APPROACH INSTEAD OF
DEMOLISHING THE HOME AND BUILDING TWO SITES.
THIS DESIGN PRESERVES THE HOUSE'S INFRASTRUCTURE AND BUILDING
MATERIALS AND MOST OF THE REWORK IS WITHIN THE FRAME OF THE
HOME AS IT EXISTS NOW.
THE DESIGN ALSO AIMS TO AVOID AGREE REMOVAL BY PRIMARILY
MODIFYING THE EXISTING STRUCTURE AND ADDING VERY LITTLE TO
THE BUILDING.
ADDITIONALLY, RATHER THAN DEMOING AND CREATING TWO SEPARATE
SMALLER UNITS, THIS WOULD KIND OF MAINTAIN THE APPEARANCE OF
THE HOUSE AS IT IS TO CONTINUE TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE
SURROUNDING HOMES.
NOT TRYING TO MAKE ANY SORT OF CRAZY MEGA STRUCTURE.
JUST TRYING TO DO SOMETHING PRACTICAL.
06:16:01PM >> AND DO SOMETHING FOR HER AND FOR ME.
06:16:05PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
OKAY, YES, COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:16:08PM >>LYNN HURTAK:

THIS IS IN TAMPA DISTRICT IN THE INTERBAY GANDY NEIGHBORHOOD
IN EVACUATION ZONE B.
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED RESIDENTS THAT SURROUND THE SUBJECT
SITE.
AS YOU MOVE NORTH OFF OF GANDY, IT IS A LARGER MIX OF COMMERCIAL
AND MULTIFAMILY USES AND IS A TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDOR.
THIS IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
SUBJECT SITE IS DESIGNATED WITH RESIDENTIAL-10 THAT
SURROUNDS THE SUBJECT SITE ON ALL SIDES.
AGAIN AS YOU MOVE FORWARD TO GANDY WHERE THE COMMERCIAL USES
ARE, COMMERCIAL MIXED USE 35 AND THIS IS CC-35.
THE PORTION OF SOUTH MARLIN AND SOUTH SHERIDAN AND SOUTH 6th
STREET DENSITY OF 5.89 DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE BASE AND TEN
SAMPLE SITES.
LOT WIDTHS RANGE FROM 50 TO 76 FEET, AVERAGING 57.4 FEET.
PROPOSED REZONING WILL ALLOW FOR CONSIDERATION OF ONE
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED ZONING LOT WITH THE WIDTH OF
APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET.
MATCHING THE EXISTING LOT WIDTHS ON WEST MARLIN AVENUE.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF FINDS THE REQUEST WILL PROVIDE FOR
RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL BE BUILT WITHIN THE
EXISTING STREET, BLOCK AND LOT CONFIGURATION OF THE
NEIGHBORHOOD.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND FOUND
NO ADVERSE IMPACTS TO THIS SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENCOURAGES INFILL DEVELOPMENT ON VACANT
AND UNDERUTILIZED SITES TO ACCOMMODATE CURRENT AND FUTURE
POPULATIONS.
REQUEST PROMOTE HIGHER DENSITY TO THE SITE PLAN OF 10
DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE.
PROPOSED RS-50 ZONING DISTRICT ALLOW FOR ADDITIONAL HOUSING
IN THE SOUTH OF GANDY INTERBAY NEIGHBORHOOD.
COMPATIBLE AND COMPARABLE WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA AND
CONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN UNDER THE
RESIDENTIAL-10 LAND USE.
AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION IF YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS.
06:20:49PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
YES, SIR.
06:20:51PM >>SAMUEL THOMAS:
SAM THOMAS, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
START WITH OUR AERIAL VIEW OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
SUBJECT SITE OUTLINED IN RED ON WEST MARLIN AVENUE.
SURROUNDING THE SITE IS SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED HOMES.
RS-60 AND QUITE A FEW RS-50 ZONING DISTRICTS THAT OCCURRED
OVER THE YEARS THROUGH THE REZONING PROCESS.
WHEN YOU MOVE NORTH, YOU HAVE GANDY BOULEVARD.
RIGHT HERE COMMERCIAL GENERAL USES ALONG GANDY BOULEVARD AND
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED USES AND MULTIFAMILY ALONG SHERWOOD
HERE AND SINGLE-FAMILY USE ALONG THE PERIPHERY OF THIS
NEIGHBORHOOD.
I WILL SHOW THE CONFORMING MAP NOW.
THIS IS EUCLIDIAN.
NO SITE PLAN, BUT STAFF DID AN ANALYSIS BASED ON THE
CONFORMING MAP.
SUBJECT SITE IS 0.16 ACRES, 6750 SQUARE FEET.
50-FOOT FRONTAGE AND 135-FOOT DEPTH.
RS-50 REQUIRE A MINIMUM OF 56,000 SQUARE FEET AND BE 50 FOOT
OF FRONTAGE.
PART OF THE TROPICAL TERRACE SUBDIVISION AND WAS PLATTED AT
50 FEET.
THE LOTS ON BLOCK 3 WERE ORIGINALLY PLATTED FROM 50 TO 60
FEET.
NOW WE WILL GET INTO THE ANALYSIS PERFORMED BY STAFF AND THE
CONFORMING MAP.
SO WE WILL START OFF LOOKING AT THE ORIGINALLY PLATTED BLOCK
WHICH IS FROM SHERIDAN, SOUTH SHERIDAN ROAD TO SOUTH 6th
STREET, NORTH OF WEST PAUL AND SOUTH OF MARLIN.
SO THIS HERE IS YOUR ORIGINAL PLAT -- PLATTED BLOCK.
THAT IS WHAT THE FIRST PART OF THE ANALYSIS IS ABOUT.
THE SUBJECT BLOCK, BLOCK 3, THAT WAS JUST OUTLINED CONTAIN
23 PARCELS TODAY AND THE WIDTHS RANGE FROM 50 TO 79.99 FEET,
EXCLUDING THE SUBJECT SITE.
FOUR PARCELS OF 18% OF THE SUBJECT SITE, RANGES 60 FEET OR
GREATER.
PARCELS ARE 28% OR 59.99 FEET OR LESS.
THAT IS COVERING THE SUBJECT BLOCK HERE.
WHEN WE ARE LOOKING AT THE STREET FACE THAT GOES ALONG
MARLIN AVENUE FROM SOUTH SHERIDAN TO SOUTH SIXTH STREET.
THAT WILL BE HERE AND HERE, THERE IS ANOTHER ANALYSIS THAT
WE PROVIDED.
SO WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING AT THAT STREET FACE ON THE SOUTH
SIDE RIGHT HERE, IT CONTAINS 11 PARCELS INCLUDING THE SUBJECT
SITE WITH RANGING FROM 50 TO 79.99 FEET.
3 OR 27% OF THE PARCELS HAVE A WIDTH OF 60 FOOT OR GREATER
AND EIGHT OR 73% OF THE PARCEL HAVE 59.99 OR LESS WIDTH.
NOW WE WILL LOOK AT THE NORTH SIDE OF MARLIN AVENUE ON THIS
STREET FACE.
IT CONTAINS NINE PARCELS AND THE WIDTHS RANGE FROM -- THE
WIDTHS RANGE FROM 50 TO 59.99 FEET.
SEVEN OR 78% HAVE A WIDTH OF 506 FOOT FOR GREATER AND 22%
HAVE A WIDTH OF 59.99 FEET OR LESS.
LASTLY, WE WILL LOOK AT THE OVERALL ANALYSIS AREA FOR THIS.
AND THEN BASED ON THAT OVERALL ANALYSIS AREA, 62% OF THE
PARCELS HAVE A WIDTH OF 60 INTO THE OR GREATER AND 58% HAVE
A WIDTH OF 59.99 SQUARE FEET OR LESS.
I WILL SHOW YOU PICTURES OF THE AREA NOW.
THIS IS LOOKING EAST FROM THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING NORTH.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ON MARLIN AVENUE.
LOOKING SOUTH.
AND THAT IS LOOKING EAST ON MARLIN AVENUE.
THIS IS LOOKING DIRECTLY AT THE SUBJECT SITE.
AND THIS IS LOOKING WEST FROM THE SUBJECT SITE.
I WILL PUT THE CONFORMING MAP BACK UP NOW.
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW AND COMPLIANCE STAFF FOUND THE REQUEST
INCONSISTENT.
WHILE THERE ARE A VARIETY OF LOT SIZES WITHIN THE VICINITY
OF THE SUBJECT SITE, STAFF FIND THE PROPOSED REQUEST
INCONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN BASED ON
THAT OVERALL STUDY AREA.
LOOKING AT THIS OVERALL AREA AND THAT ANALYSIS, 62% OF THE
PARCELS HAVING A WIDTH OF 60 FOOT FOR GREATER.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION, AND I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY
QUESTIONS.
06:25:21PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
06:25:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I AM SURPRISED OF THE INCONSISTENCY ON
THIS ONE.
SUCH A DIVERSELY DEVELOPED AREA IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE
COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR.
I MEAN, YOU LOOK AT THIS MAP, THE ONLY THING CONSISTENT
ABOUT THIS IS INCONSISTENCY.
I MEAN -- YOU GOT A LOT OF RS-50 ON THAT BLOCK ABUTTING
SOUTH OF IT.
I MEAN, EVEN ONE ON THAT CORNER THAT HAS BEEN DEVELOPED.
I MEAN, YOU GUYS OBVIOUSLY STRUGGLED WITH THIS ONE.
06:25:50PM >>SAMUEL THOMAS:
YES, SIR.
THAT IS KIND OF WHY WHEN WE LAID ON THE STAFF REPORT, WE
WANTED TO PROVIDE YOU WITH THE ANALYSIS OF THE BLOCK THAT
WAS ORIGINALLY PLATTED AND THE STREET FACE AS WELL BEFORE WE
PROVIDE THAT OVERALL ANALYSIS.
EVEN THOUGH THE STREET FACE AND THE BLOCK -- YOU ARE LOOK AT
THIS IMMEDIATE VERY CLOSE AREA, IT LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD MATCH
WITH THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN.
UNFORTUNATELY STAFF HAS TO MAKE THEIR DECISIONS BASED ON
THIS OVERALL CONFORMING MAP AREA FOR THE ANALYSIS THAT SHOWS
THAT 62% OF THE PARCEL ARE 06 FOOT OR GREATER.
06:26:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
RS-50 WILL BE A CONFORMING LOT.
06:26:27PM >>SAMUEL THOMAS:
THE LOT IS CURRENTLY 50 FOOT WIDE.
AND A SLEW OF REZONINGS OVER THE YEAR WITHIN THE AREA THAT
WENT TO RS-50.
JUST STAFF DOES HAVE TO MAKE THEIR OVERALL DECISION ON
CONSISTENT OR INCONSISTENT BASED ON THE OVERALL STUDY AREA
AND NOT THE VICINITY.
06:26:45PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I UNDERSTAND.
BET THEY ARE THAN THE PD.

06:29:19PM >>EMILY PHELAN:
EMILY PHELAN, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
SUBJECT SITE LOCATED WITHIN CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT.
WEST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE AND MacFARLANE PARK AREA IN
EVACUATION ZONE E.
SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED HERE AND TO THE NORTH AND WEST ARE
COMMERCIAL USES.
TO THE EAST IS AN INDUSTRIAL USE THAT IS OPERATING AS
AN CRACKS STORAGE.
TO THE SOUTH ARE SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED.
THIS IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS HERE, AND IT IS REPRESENTED WITH THE
COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 35 FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION TO THE
NORTH, EAST AND WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND TO THE SOUTH
WHERE THE SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED RESIDENCES ARE THE
RESIDENTIAL-10.
THE REQUEST FOR AC STORAGE AND CLINIC USES CAN BE
CONSIDERED.
AND IF IT IS APPROVED, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REQUESTS
THAT USES BE ADDED TO THE SITE DATA TABLE BETWEEN FIRST AND
SECOND READINGS.
LIKE I SAID, THEY CAN BE CONSIDERED UNDER THIS.
THE CC-35 OF MEDIAN, INTENSITY AND VERTICAL AND INCLUDING
INTENSIVE AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL, SERVICE, OFFICE AND
RESIDENTIAL USES.
UNDER THIS DESIGNATION, THE SITE COULD ALLOW FOR UP TO 35
DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE OR .20 F.A.R.
SINCE THE SITE HAS ARTERIAL FRONTAGE, A LOT SIZE OVER .35
ACRES AND TWO USES FROM SEPARATE GENERAL CATEGORIES OUTLINED
IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE, A BONUS AGREEMENT IS NOT
REQUIRED.
PROPOSED INTENSITY IS CONSISTENT WITHIN THE CC-35
DESIGNATION.
SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED WITHIN A MIXED USE CORRIDOR, URBAN
VILLAGE AND ALONG THE TRANSIT CORRIDOR WHICH IS NORTH
MacDILL AVENUE.
COMPREHENSIVE PLANS EMPHASIZES MULTIMODAL SAFETY AND
ENCOURAGES MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT THAT ENHANCES TAMPA'S
AMBIENCE; HOWEVER, THE PROPOSED PD DO NOT ADEQUATELY ALIGN
WITH THESE POLICIES.
THE PLAN'S POLL RECEIVES PEDESTRIAN-ORIENTED DESIGN WITH
BUILDINGS CLOSER TO THE STREET WITH PRIMARY ENTRANCES
ORIENTED TO THE PUBLIC REALM AND PARKING TO THE REAR WHERE
FEASIBLE.
CURRENT DESIGN WITH PARKING AND THE DUMPSTER ON THE FRONT OF
THE SITE CONFLICTS WITH THESE POLICIES AN PRESENTS A
SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERN AS IT REQUIRES GARBAGE OVER THE
ONLY PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION TO THE BUILDING ENTRANCE.
IN CONCLUSION WHILE THE PRO POSED USES CAN BE CONSIDERED,
THE CURRENT SITE LAYOUT DOES NOT FULLY SUPPORT THE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICY GUIDANCE FOR PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY,
TRANSIT MIXED USE AND TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDORS.
PROPOSED DESIGN IS INCONSISTENT WITH POLICIES THAT
PRIORITIZE AND ENHANCE STREETSCAPE AND WALKABILITY THAT IS
ESSENTIAL FOR THE VISION OF THE MacFARLANE NEIGHBORHOOD.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
06:32:26PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:

MacDILL AVENUE.
CONSIDERING THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN REQUESTED
USE OF COMMERCIAL GENERAL PROVIDES AN APPROPRIATE INFILL.
SO THE -- YOU CAN SEE THE COMMERCIAL USE IS COMMON RIGHT
HERE AT MacDILL.
AND THIS AREA HERE IN COLUMBUS.
AND THE RESIDENTIAL STARTS RIGHT HERE JUST SOUTH OF THE
PARCEL.
HERE IS A VIEW OF THE SITE PLAN.
AND THIS IS JUST A ZOOMED-IN VIEW TO SEE IT A LITTLE BITTER.
HE CAN PUT UP THE ENTIRE SITE PLAN, IF NEEDED.
THIS IS A SITE PLAN PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT.
THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO CONSTRUCT ONE BUILDING
ON-SITE.
THIS IS THE -- THE GRAY -- DARK GRAY AREA HERE.
THE PROPOSED BUILDING WILL CONTAIN A 96,579-SQUARE-FOOT AIR
CONDITIONED STORAGE AND A CLINIC.
PROPOSED BUILDING WILL HAVE A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 49 FEET.
ACCESS TO IS THIS SITE WILL BE FROM NORTH MacDILL AVENUE AND
IS TWO-WAY.
THE ACCESS IS HERE.
THIS IS MacDILL, NORTH MacDILL HERE.
THERE WILL BE SURFACE PARK ALONG THE WEST AND SOUTH PORTIONS
OF THE SITE.
WALKWAY CONNECT THE FRONT DOORS AN PARKING TO THE SIX-FOOT
CONCRETE SIDEWALK ALONG NORTH MacDILL.
THIS IS THAT PROPOSED CLINIC USE AND THE DOORS HERE.
THERE IS AN OFFICE WHICH IS INCLUDED IN THE AIR-CONDITIONED
STORAGE.
THEIR DOORS ARE HERE.
AND THEN THIS IS THE CONNECTION ON THE FULL SITE PLAN I CAN
SHOW YOU IF YOU WOULD LIKE.
IT CONNECTS TO THE SIDEWALK, WHICH RUNS ALONG NORTH MacDILL.
THIS IS THE ENTRANCE TO THE -- TO THE AIR-CONDITIONED
STORAGE AREA.
THE PROPOSED MEDICAL CLINIC IS SHOWN ON THE NORTHWEST SIDE
OF THE BUILDING AND PROPOSED OFFICE FOR THE STORAGE FACILITY
ON THE SOUTHWEST SIDE.
THERE IS AN ADDITIONAL ENTRANCE TO THE STORAGE UNITS LOCATED
ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING.
49 PARKING SPACES ARE REQUIRED AND 11 SPACES ARE BEING
PROVIDED.
THERE IS AS 71-FOOT BUFFER TO THE REAR HERE.
YOU CAN SEE THAT.
AND THAT IS ON THE EAST SIDE, AND EXISTING TREES ARE
PRESERVED.
THE PROPOSED BUILDING IS ALSO BEING PLACED TO THE NORTH OF
THE SITE TO ALLOW FOR INCREASED BUFFER FOR THE EXISTING
RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES.
SO THE BUILDING IS PLACED HERE.
AND THEN THOSE RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES ARE LOCATED
HERE.
THERE ARE TWO NEW WAIVERS REQUESTED AS PART OF THIS
APPLICATION TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED PARKING FROM 49 SPACES TO
11 SPACES AND REDUCE THE REQUIRED NUMBER OF LOADING BERTH
FROM FOUR TO TWO.
AND I CAN SHOW YOU THE ENTIRE SITE PLAN HERE SO YOU CAN SEE
THE SIDEWALK ON MacDILL.
AND WHERE IT IS LOCATED.
AND THEN THIS IS -- THIS IS THE BUFFER HERE.
06:36:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YOU SAID THE LOADING BERTHS REDUCED FROM
FOUR TO TWO.
06:36:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BUT THERE ARE FOUR THERE.
06:36:56PM >>STEPHANIE POPE:
THERE ARE FOUR THERE.
BUT THEY ARE REQUESTING AT THAT WAIVER.
WHEN THE APPLICANT COMES UP, THEY HAVE SOME CHANGES THAT
THEY ARE MAKING.
SO THEY WILL SHOW WHAT THE CHANGES WILL BE.
AND THEY WILL ALSO BE PROBABLY ADDITIONAL CHANGES TO THAT.
HERE ARE THE ELEVATIONS PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT.
THIS IS THE WEST SIDE OF THE BUILDING, WHICH FACES NORTH
MacDILL.
MERE YOU CAN SEE THE ENTRANCES.
THIS IS GOING TO BE THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING.
AND THEN THIS IS THE ENTRANCE TO THE AIR-CONDITIONED STORAGE
AREA.
THIS IS THE EAST SIDE.
AND THIS IS THE NORTH SIDE.
AND YOU CAN SEE THIS AREA HERE THAT IS -- HIGH PRESSURE THAT
IS ALONG NORTH MacDILL.
I WILL SHOW YOU SOME PHOTOS OF THE SITE.
OF THIS IS NORTH OF THE SITE.
THIS IS FROM THE SITE LOOKING NORTH AT THE ADJACENT MEDICAL
USE.
THIS IS LOOKING NORTH DOWN NORTH MacDILL, AND YOU CAN SEE THE
COMMERCIAL USES ALONG MacDILL IN THIS AREA.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ACROSS MacDILL.
AND THEN THIS IS ALSO LOOKING ACROSS MacDILL.
THE OTHER PHOTO OF THE -- OF THE CHURCH IS RIGHT HERE.
AND THIS WAS LOOKING IN THE OPPOSITE WAY DOWN MacDILL.
THIS IS THE SITE RIGHT HERE.
THIS IS LOOK CAN AT THE SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL HOMES DOWN
ST. JOHNS.
THIS IS A PHOTO OF THE SITE.
THEN THE REAR HERE, YOU CAN SEE THE COMMERCIAL BEHIND THE
SITE HERE AS WELL.
ANOTHER PHOTO OF THE SITE.
AND LASTLY ANOTHER PHOTO OF THE SITE.
AND THESE ARE THE RESIDENTIAL ADJACENT HOMES THERE.
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION AND COMPLIANCE STAFF REVIEWED THE
APPLICATION AND FIND THE REQUEST TO BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE
LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
THERE ARE TWO WAIVERS AS PART OF THIS REQUEST.
NOT WITHSTANDING, STAFF'S FINDING OF INCONSISTENCY, IF CITY
COUNCIL APPROVES, THE MODIFICATIONS ON THE VERY VISION SHEET
MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
THESE REVISION ALSO NOT RESOLVES THE ISSUE OF
TRANSPORTATION'S INCONSISTENT FINDING.
I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
06:39:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
APPLICANT.
06:39:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YES, SIR, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
06:39:48PM >> GOOD EVENING, MY NAME IS WESLEY MILLS.
I AM THE ENGINEER OF RECORD FOR THE PROJECT.
I HAVE OF A BRIEF POWERPOINT PRESENTATION.
I MAY NEED A SECOND TO PULL IT UP.
I APOLOGIZE.
06:40:08PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING OBJECT OUR
SCREENS YET.
IN THE MEAN TIME, I SEE A COUPLE OF NEW PEOPLE IN THE ROOM.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM OR THE NEXT ITEM,
PLEASE STAND AND WE WILL SWEAR YOU IN.
[SWEARING IN]
06:42:06PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:42:07PM >> I HAVE SOME PRINT OUTS.
06:42:39PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
IF YOU HAVE A PAPER COPY.
06:42:41PM >> OKAY, EXCELLENT.
I AM GOING TO FLIP THROUGH SOME THE SLIDES THAT HAVE ALREADY
BEEN PRESENTED.
WE KNOW THE LOCATION.
06:43:07PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THEY ARE GOING TO ACTIVATE THE OVERHEAD.
IF YOU WANT TO BE BEGIN, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
06:43:13PM >> WESLEY MILLS WITH MILL SHORE AND ASSOCIATES.
THE ENGINEER ON RECORD FOR THE PROBABLY.
I APPRECIATE BEING HERE TO PRESENT OUR PROJECT.
I WANT TO THANK STEPHANIE AND HER TEAM.
OUR FIRM WORKS THROUGHOUT THE STATE WITH NUMEROUS SMALL
MUNICIPALITIES AND FOUND THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM AT THE CITY TO
BE EXCELLENT TO WORK WITH AND VERY HELPFUL.
SO REALLY ENJOYED WORKING WITH THEM TO THIS POINT.
SO I HAVE A POWERPOINT OR A SLIDE HERE THAT SHOWS THE
EXISTING CONDITIONS OF THE SITE.
THE AERIAL MAP THAT WE CHOSE IS SEVERAL YEARS OLD BUT SHOWS
THE EXISTING BUILDING THAT WAS ON-SITE BEFORE RECENTLY BEING
DEMOLISHED.
AND I THINK THAT IS IMPORTANT FOR A COUPLE OF REASONS.
ONE, TO JUST SEE THE SHAPE OF THE SITE AND SOME OF THE
CHALLENGES THAT -- THAT RELATE TO DEVELOPING THE SITE.
AND WE REALLY WORKED ON OUR SITE PLAN TO -- PRIORITY NUMBER
ONE TO NOT IMPACT THE RESIDENTS TO THE SOUTH.
AND AS WELL AS PRESERVING ALL THE EXISTING TREES AND
VEGETATION ON THE SITE.
OUR SITE PLAN MIMICS -- IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE EXISTING SITE
PRIOR TO BEING DEMOLISHED.
YOU SEE WITH THE EXISTING, TWO DRIVEWAY CUTS.
OUR PROPOSED PROJECT WILL ELIMINATE THE WERE NO ONE AND
MAINTAIN THE SOUTHERN ACCESS AS DUAL ACCESS FOR THE SITE.
OUR PROPOSED SITE PLAN THAT SHOWS THE EXISTING TREES WE
PRESERVE.
CITY'S REQUIREMENT IS 50%.
WE MET AT 72% FOR THE SITE.
ALSO IN STAFF'S REPORT, THEY ALSO INDICATE THAT THE MINIMUM
OPEN SPACE REQUIREMENT, OUR PROJECT IS FIVE TIMES GREATER
THAN THE MINIMUM THAT IS REQUIRED.
WE REALLY TRY TO CONDENSE THE FOOTPRINT OF SITE, ONE TO STAY
AWAY FROM THE RESIDENTS AND ALSO TO PRESERVE THE EXISTING
TREES AND STAY CLEAR OF ANY PROTECTION ZONES OF THE EXISTING
TREES.
WE HAVE THE ONE ENTRANCE.
AND WE WORKED TO ACHIEVE COMPLIANCE WITH THE COMP PLAN AND
THE GOALS OF THE CITY TO HAVE THE FRONT ENTRANCES ALONG
MacDILL AND A PEDESTRIAN ACCESS FROM THE PUBLIC SIDEWALK
ALONG MacDILL.
A COUPLE OF CLARIFICATIONS I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE WITH THE
SITE PLAN IS THAT THERE WAS A MENTION OF ONE OF OUR WAIVERS
FOR THE LOADING BERTHS ONLY BEING TWO.
OUR PLAN HAS FOUR LOADING SPACES WHICH WILL BE COMPLIANT.
SO WE WOULDN'T BE LOOKING FOR A WAIVER, BUT I BELIEVE THE
MISUNDERSTANDING THERE IS THAT CITY STAFF WOULD LIKE TO SEE
ONE OF THOSE LOADING SPACE THAT IS IN FRONT OF THE MAIN
ENTRANCE OF THE STORAGE FACILITY RELOCATED AND ALSO ONE OF
THE PARKING SPACES THAT IS ADJACENT TO THE DUMPSTER PAD TO
ALSO BE RELOCATED, AND WE ARE IN AGREEMENT WITH THAT.
OUR REVISED SITE PLAN WILL MOVE AROUND THE LOADING SPACES
SLIGHTLY AND THEN THE PARKING.
SO WE WOULD NOT BE SEEKING THAT WAIVER.
THE OTHER THING I WANT TO NOTE WHEN WE TALK ABOUT A DUMPSTER
PAD LOCATION AND BEING IN CONFLICT WITH CERTAIN FEATURES OF
THE SITE.
WE WILL NOT HAVE AN EXTERIOR DUMPSTER WITH THIS PROJECT.
WE'LL TRASH BIN LOCATED WITHIN THE FACILITY THAT WILL BE
LOCKED SO ONLY CARDBOARD BOXES AND PAPER AND ITEMS LIKE THAT
WILL BE THROWN AWAY.
ONCE A WEEK, IT WILL BE WHEELED.
SO DUMPSTER OR THE TRASH RECEPTACLE WILL BE STORED INSIDE
THE BUILDING HERE AND BROUGHT OUT THE SIDE ENTRANCE.
AND THEN PULLED OVER TO THE DUMPSTER PAD LOCATION.
SO THIS WON'T BE A PHYSICAL DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE LIKE YOU ARE
USED TO SEEING WITH MORE HIGH INTENSITY COMMERCIAL USES.
ALSO, A COUPLE OF THINGS I WANT TO MAKE NOTE OF IS, WE ARE
REQUIRED TO HAVE A ZERO LANDSCAPE BUFFER ON THE EAST SIDE OF
THE SITE.
AND ALSO ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE SITE.
WE HAVE A 750-FOOT BUFFER ON THE EAST SIDE AND 10-FOOT
BUFFER ON THE NORTH SIDE.
ON THE SOUTH SIDE, WE ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A 15-FOOT BUFFER
AND A 20-FOOT BUFFER WITH LANDSCAPING AND AN EXISTING
CONCRETE BLOCK WALL THAT SEPARATES OUR SITE FROM THE
RESIDENTIAL.
THIS IS A COLORIZED VERSION OF OUR LANDSCAPE PLAN, JUST TO
DELINEATE ALL OF THE OPEN SPACE WE HAVE WITH THE SITE IN
GREEN.
THE AREAS THAT ARE SHADED BLUE AND PURPLE ARE ALL THE
EXISTING TREES THAT WE ARE MAINTAINING AND WE ARE ALSO
MAINTAINING THE CRITICAL ROOT ZONES THAT ARE REQUESTED.
AS WELL AS YOU WILL SEE SOME OF THE LANDSCAPING FEATURES
ALONG THE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY, WHICH WILL BE -- WHICH WILL BE
AN ENHANCEMENT OF EXISTING SITE.
IT WILL BE UNDERSTORY TREES, HEDGES, AND SOME BLOOMING-TYPE
TREES, BUT NOT TALL CANOPY TREES BECAUSE WE ARE LOCATED AN
EASEMENT A AND THE CITY WILL SEE ANY LARGELY ROOTED TREES.
SO THE NEXT SLIDE JUST SUPERIMPOSES OUR SITE AND GIVES YOU A
FEWER VIEW FROM THE SITE SHOWING OUT HOUR SITE PLAN WORKS
WITHIN THE CORRIDOR OF THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENTS.
AND -- AS YOU CAN SEE, WE TRIED TO PUSH THE BUILDING AS
CLOSES TO NORTH MacDILL AS POSSIBLE.
IT IS CLOSER TO MacDILL THAN ALL OF THE COMMERCIAL RESIDENTS
AROUND IT.
AND I THINK IT WAS REFERENCED THERE WAS A PD IN 2019 THAT IS
AT THE CORNER OF COLUMBUS.
AND THAT, ALSO -- THAT APPROVAL HAS PARKING IN THE FRONT OF
THE BUILDING.
AND HAVING PARKING IN THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING, IF THE
ENTRANCES ARE AT THE FRONT, AND WE HEARD THAT WAS A -- THAT
WAS A SENSITIVE POINT TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH THE CITY'S CAMP
PLAN IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE BUILDING ENTRANCES WERE ALONG
THE FRONT.
WE HAVE A MEDICAL CLINIC AND THE MAIN OFFICE TO THE STORAGE
FACILITY AT THE FRONT OF THE SITE.
AND THERE ARE ADA AND FLORIDA BUILDING REQUIREMENTS,
ESPECIALLY WITH A CLINIC THAT REQUIRES THE HANDICAPPED AND
PARKING SPACES TO BE AT THE CLOSEST SPOT POSSIBLE TO THE
FRONT DOORS.
MOST OF OUR PARKING IS ALONG THE SIDE AND NOT AT THE FRONT
OF THE BUILDING.
WE DO HAVE PARKING SPACES IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING.
AND WE REALLY FELT TO NOT BE -- TO -- TO NOT BE IN
COMPLIANCE WITH ADA AND FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, THAT IT WAS
CRITICAL TO HAVE THOSE PARKING SPACE THERE IS.
SO WE TRIED TO PUSH THE BUILDING AS CLOSE TO NORTH MacDILL
AS WE COULD.
AND YOU WILL SEE SIMILAR DEVELOPMENTS FOLLOW A SIMILAR PATH.
I WANTED TO PRO PROVIDE A BRIEF OUTLINE OF THE ENTITLEMENT
SCHEDULE BECAUSE WE WORKED BACK AND FORTH WITH STAFF.
THEY WERE VERY SUPPORTIVE.
TWO PREAPPLICATION MEETINGS TO UNDERSTAND THE VISION OF THE
SITE AND HOW THEY WILL BE COMPLIANT WITH THE COMP PLAN
VISION FOR THE CITY.
SO IN ADDITION TO THE TWO PREAPPLICATION MEETINGS, WE HAD
OUR DRC REVIEW.
WE ALSO HELD A NEIGHBORHOOD WORKSHOP PRIOR TO THIS MEETING.
BECAUSE WE REALLY WANTED TO MEET WITH THE RESIDENTS,
UNDERSTAND THEIR CONCERNS WITH OUR DEVELOPMENT, AND ALSO
GIVE THEM SOME ADDITIONAL DETAIL WHAT WE PLAN TO DO WITH THE
PROBABLY.
MOST OF THE RESIDENTS WERE VERY SUPPORTIVE OF THE PROJECT.
THIS FACILITY WILL BE APPROXIMATELY $15 MILLION.
AND THEY FELT VERY -- VERY EXCITED FOR THE FACT THAT
SOMEBODY WOULD COME INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND PUT THIS KIND
OF INVESTMENT INTO THIS PROPERTY.
AND THEY WERE PLEASED WITH HOW WE WOULD HAVE SITUATED THE
BUILDING ON THE SITE AND BUFFERED AWAY FROM THE RESIDENCE
AND GAVE THEM PRIVACY.
THEY ALSO WERE HAPPY TO HEAR OF THE FACT IT IS KIND OF A
RELATIVELY LOW INTENSITY COMMERCIAL USE INSTEAD OF SOMETHING
MORE INTRUSIVE ON THE RESIDENTS.
ONE, TWO, OR THREE NEIGHBORS THAT JUST DON'T WANT TO SEE
ANYTHING HAPPEN THERE.
SO I DON'T WANT TO PARENT THIS PRETTY PICTURE TO YOU GUYS
THAT EVERYBODY WAS HAPPY.
THERE WERE A FEW RESIDENTS THAT DON'T WANT TO SEE ANYTHING
HAPPEN WITH THE SITE.
SO THIS MATERIAL YOU HAVE IN YOUR STAFF'S REPORT, REALLY
WHAT I AM OUTLINING IS ALL THE CONSISTENCIES THAT THIS
PROJECT DOES HAVE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THE TOWN'S
-- OR THE CITY'S ORDINANCES.
SOFT WE ARE OBVIOUSLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE.
WE ARE COMPATIBLE WITH FLOOR AREA RATIOS.
PER COMPATIBLE WITH NATURAL RESOURCES THAT WE HAVE FIVE
TIMES AS MUCH GREEN SPACE AREA THAN WHAT WAS REQUIRED.
WE FAR EXCEED THE CITY'S TREE RETENTION REQUIREMENT.
WE EXCEED THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER REQUIREMENTS.
WE MEET SOLID WASTE REQUIREMENTS.
STORMWATER, HISTORIC PRESERVATION, TAMPA FIRE RESCUE, WATER
AND RIGHT-OF-WAY.
PILL SKIP OVER MY NEXT SLIDE.
IT IS JUST HIGHLIGHTING WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE IN YOUR STAFF
REPORT THAT SHOWS ALL THE AREAS OF THE COMP PLAN THAT WE ARE
CONSISTENT WITH.
NEXT, I WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE PD WAIVERS.
REALLY THE ONLY PD WAIVER THAT WE ARE SEEKING IS THE
PARKING.
AND THIS IS PRETTY COMMON FOR THESE TYPE OF FACILITIES.
WHAT I DID WAS I LOOKED AT THE CITY'S PARKING REQUIREMENT
AND COMPARED THAT TO THE INTERNATIONAL PARKING MANUAL,
THE ITE, AS IT IS REFERENCED THAT GETS UPDATED ON A PRETTY
REGULAR BASIS.
IT IS A WIDELY ACCEPTED STANDARD FOR PARKING RATES.
AND WHAT WE TEND TO FIND IS THAT -- AND NO KNOCK ON THE
CITY.
MOST MUNICIPALITIES, PARKING CODES JUST DON'T GET UPDATED AS
REGULARLY AS THE ITE AND THEY ARE SOMEWHAT ANTIQUATED.
SO, YES, PURPOSE TO LOOK AT THE CITY PARKING CODE, WE WOULD
BE REQUIRED TO HAVE 38 SPACES FOR THE SELF-STORAGE FACILITY.
BUT YOU LOOK AT THE ITE MANUAL, WE WILL BE REQUIRED TO HAVE
10.
I ALSO LOOKED AT THE -- THE MEDICAL CLINIC.
AND PER THE ITE, WILL REQUIRE HALF THE PARKING SPACES THAN
WHAT THE CITY CODE PROVIDES.
SOFT AS A COMPARATIVE, YES, THE CITY'S CODE TECHNICALLY
REQUIRES 48 SPACES.
OUR PROJECT HAS 16.
BUT IF YOU LOOKING AT THE ITE, IT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH
THE NATIONAL PUBLICATION THAT IS WIDELY ACCEPTED.
06:54:58PM >> I AM GOING INTO THE THREE MINUTES.
I AM MARTY BLACK.
CREDENTIALED CITY MANAGER AND AICP CITY PLANNER.
I WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT A COUPLE OF ITEMS FOR YOU.
IN THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT, IT INDICATES THERE
MAY BE INCONSISTENCY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE PLACEMENT OF THE
PARKING AT THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING.
I WANT TO JUST EMPHASIZE THAT IF WE COULD PUT ALL THE
PARKING IN THE BACK, WE WOULD HAVE TO TAKE DOWN ALL THE
TREES REQUIRED TO PRESERVE UNDER THE CITY'S REGULATION.
MOVING THE PARKING TO THE BACK OF THE BUILDING ACTS CONTRARY
TO THAT AND WOULD CREATE AN INCONSISTENCY WITH THE FLORIDA
BUILDING CODE AND WITH THE AMERICANS OF DISABILITY ACT TO
PUT ALL THE PARKING THERE.
WE PUT THE LEAST NUMBER OF PARKING IN THE FRONT.
FIVE SPACES UP FRONT, INCLUDING THE HANDICAPPED SPACE.
AND ARE THE REMAINDER OF THE 16 SPACES AND LOADING A AREAS
ACROSS THE SOUTH SIDE.
WE HAVE TWO ENTRANCES ON THE FRONT STREET ON MacDILL.
WE HAVE TO HAVE TWO-WAY TRAFFIC AND YOUR CODE DEFINES HOW
WIDE TO GET TO THAT PARKING SPACES AND MET THE MINIMUM
THERE.
WE PROVIDED A NICE LANDSCAPE ACROSS THE STREET FRONTAGE WITH
THE SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENTS AND WHICH HAVE THE ENTRANCE ON THE
SOUTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING.
TWO ENTRANCES.
SO YOU GOT THE SPLIT THERE FROM THE -- FROM THE USE
PERSPECTIVE FOR GENERAL CONSISTENCY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN.
I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT THE PLAN IS ADVISORY AND NOT A
STRICT MEASUREMENT.
THE PROBLEM IF WE MOVE ALL OF THE PARKING INCLUDING THE
HANDICAPPED TO THE BACK AND THE FRONT DOORS TO THE FRONT.
WE WOULD BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE BUILDING CODES AND HAVE TO
EFFECTIVELY -- WITH A MEDICAL CLINIC, SOMEBODY WITH A WALKER
OR CANE OR EVEN A WHEELCHAIR AND TRY TO GET TO THE MEDICAL
CLINIC COME ALL THE WAY AROUND THE PARKING AREA AND GET INTO
THE FRONT, WE WILL CREATE MORE VEHICLE CONFLICTS.
THE PRIMARY CONFLICT THAT IS IDENTIFIED BY THE PLANNING
COMMISSION STAFF IS THE ONCE-A-WEEK TRASH PICKUP CROSSING
DRIVEWAY INTO THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING.
THAT IS -- IT IS NOT ANY DIFFERENT THAN THE DAILY CROSSING
OF TRAFFIC ACROSS THE PUBLIC SIDEWALKS THAT COULD COME INTO
EVERY COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT.
WE TRY TO MINIMIZE THAT AND BRING THE BUILDING AS CLOSE TO
THE FRONT.
IDEALLY, WE WOULDN'T WANT TO HAVE THE BUILDING RIGHT UP ON
THE STREET BECAUSE THAT ALSO CREATES, IF YOU WILL, A
INCONSISTENCY WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTER.
TO THE SOUTH, HOMES ARE SET OFF OF MacDILL AND SET OFF THOSE
YARDS AND MIRROR THE LANDSCAPING AND SETBACK THAT FLOW
BEFORE YOU GET INTO THE MORE INTENSIVE TO THE NORTH.
I WILL CONCLUDE WITH 30 SECONDS.
06:57:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANY QUESTIONS?
YES, MA'AM.
06:57:38PM >>STEPHANIE POPE:
STEPHANIE POPE, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD -- WE WROTE OUT ANOTHER REVISED
REVISION SHEET AND GO AHEAD AND STATE THESE FOR THE RECORD.
FOR THE FIRST ONE, CROSS OUT WAIVERS AS LISTED ON PAGE ONE
ON THE STAFF REPORT AND LIST THE WAIVERS AS WRITTEN IN THIS
MOST RECENT REVISED REVISION SHEET.
UNDER TRANSPORTATION, THE SECOND BULLET POINT, REVISE WAIVER
NUMBER ONE TO SECTION 27-283-7 TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED
PARKING FROM 49 TO 12 WITH A 75% REDUCTION IS THE CHANGE.
WE WILL STRIKE OUT THE WAIVER NUMBER TWO AS THAT IS NO LONGER
NEEDED.
THE TWO DOWN FROM THAT, SHOW THE LOADING PROVIDED TO IT BE
FOUR SPACES.
VERY LAST ONE UNDER TRANSPORTATION, STRIKE OUT THE HATCHED
LOADING SPACE IN THE FRONT ENTRANCE.
AND TO ADD TO SHIFT THE FURTHEST EAST LOADING BERTH FURTHER
EAST PAST THE ENTRANCE.
MOVE THE MOST NORTHERN PARKING SPOT TO THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE
BUILDING.
THAT IS THE ONE BY THE DUMPSTER.
AND TO SHIFT THE REMAINING THREE LOADING BERTHS TO THE EAST
TO ACCOMMODATE FOR THAT PARKING.
06:59:04PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
06:59:07PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
EXCUSE ME.
THE MEDICAL OFFICE -- HAS A DOCTOR, I ASSUME.
A DOCTOR'S OFFICE AND CLINIC, WHAT IS THE PARKING RATIO FOR
A DOCTOR FOR A VISIT EVERY 15 OR 20 MINUTES?
06:59:30PM >> JONATHAN, DO YOU HAVE THAT?
06:59:32PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
IN OTHER WORDS, HOW MANY COME IN
VOLUME-WISE.
06:59:36PM >>JONATHAN SCOTT:
JONATHAN SCOTT, MOBILITY.
I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER BUT WE HAVE SIX PER THOUSAND PARKING
FOR MEDICAL, BUT WHAT YOU ARE ASKING.
A GOOD QUESTION.
KIND OF DEPENDS ON HOW MANY PATIENTS THEY BRING IN AND ALL
THAT.
06:59:49PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THE REASON I AM ASKING.
YEARS AGO -- I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN -- BUT WE
CHANGED THAT BECAUSE THAT IS THE HIGHEST USE OF PEOPLE GOING
IN IS TO A DOCTOR'S OFFICE.
WE CHANGED THE -- THE AMOUNT OF NEEDED SPACES FOR THAT
PROFESSION.
BUT I AM NOT SURE.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT HAS BEEN CHANGED.
I HAD FOUR YEARS OF ABSENCE.
07:00:14PM >>JONATHAN SCOTT:
I DON'T THINK WE HAVE ANY DATA FOR THAT
BUT I GUESS HE WILL USE CLINIC WHICH IS A LITTLE BIT MORE.
I REMEMBER THAT WAY BACK WHEN, YOU ALL HAD CHANGED THAT.
I LOOKED INTO THAT KIND OF IN MORE DETAIL.
THAT IS INTERESTING.
07:00:30PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THANK YOU.
07:00:32PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANY PUBLIC COMMENT FOR ITEM NUMBER 7?
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC?
COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
GO AHEAD.
07:00:41PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
FOR OUR PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF, THE
APPLICANT IN HIS PRESENTATION MADE A STATEMENT THAT I DON'T
BELIEVE WAS TRUE.
HE SAID THIS WAS IN CONFORMITY WITH FUTURE LAND USE.
YOU FOUND IT INCONSISTENT, CORRECT?
07:00:53PM >> CORRECT.
WE DID NOT FIND IT INCONSISTENT BASED ON THE USES, BECAUSE
THE USES CAN BE CONSIDERED WITHIN THE FUTURE LAND USE
DESIGNATION.
WE FOUND IT INCONSISTENT BASED OFF OF THE PARKING BEING
LOCATED AT THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING.
AND THERE ONLY BE WITH ONE PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION THAT WAY.
07:01:09PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
OKAY, THANK YOU.
07:01:10PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
NO PUBLIC COMMENT?
DO YOU NEED ANY REBUTTAL, GENTLEMEN?
07:01:18PM >> JUST AVAILABLE IF THERE ARE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS.
07:01:21PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I WOULD LIKE TO ASK THE PETITIONER A
COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.
WHEN YOU SAY "CLINIC," WILL IT BE ANY TYPE OF CLINIC?
WHAT TYPE OF CLINIC?
NOT A REHAB CLINIC, IS IT?
NOT A MEDICAL CLINIC?
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.
07:01:35PM >> IT IS PROPOSED TO BE A MEDICAL CLINIC, NOT A REHAB.
07:01:38PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
WHAT TYPE.
07:01:42PM >> WE TONIGHT HAVE A CLIENT.
07:01:43PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
IT CAN BE ANYTHING, A REHAB?
07:01:47PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
PLEASE COME ON UP.
07:01:50PM >> I WILL ASK THE OWNERS TO COME UP.
07:01:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
STATE YOUR NAME.
07:01:55PM >> NIC JUDIE.
I REPRESENT THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM PROPOSED MEDICAL CLINIC,
MORE OF A WALK-IN CLINIC.
07:02:03PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
WALK-IN CLINIC FOR WHAT, FOR ILLNESS?
07:02:08PM >> CORRECT.
07:02:08PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
BREAK MY FINGERNAIL AND GO IN.
07:02:12PM >> MORE OF AN URGENT CARE.
07:02:14PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NOT A MEDICAL CLINIC FOR REHAB.
YOU SAY THAT, NOT ME.
07:02:19PM >> NOT FOR REHAB, THAT'S RIGHT.
07:02:22PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION TO CLOSE FOR DISCUSSION.
07:02:24PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANYTHING ELSE?
COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.
ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
HEARING IS CLOSED.
GO AHEAD, SIR.
07:02:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I MEAN, LISTENING TO THE APPLICANT ON
THIS, I WOULD THINK YOU ARE BUILDING SOMETHING THAT IS A
REMARKABLE -- AND NOT WHAT I AM SEEING.
YOU KNOW FOR THE FUTURE LAND USE AND FOR -- THE REASON WE
HAVE THESE POLICIES IS REDEVELOP CITY OF TAMPA.
WE ARE TRYING TO REDEVELOP IT IN A BETTER WAY THAN WHAT IS
CURRENTLY EXISTING CONDITIONS.
THAT IS WHY THAT POLICY ABOUT PARKING AND -- AND WHEN YOU --
I THINK IT WAS DISINGENUOUS TO SAY BEING NOT IN COMPLIANCE.
THE REASON YOU ARE NOT IN COMPLIANCE BECAUSE OF TYPE OF --
THE PROPERTY IS PERFECTLY DEVELOPER AND CAPABLE OF BEING
DEVELOPED IN A DIFFERENT WAY AND A DIFFERENT PROJECT.
YOU ARE TRYING TO PROPOSE SOMETHING ON THIS PIECE OF
PROPERTY THAT DOESN'T FIT AND IS NOT IN -- NOT IN HARMONY
WITH THE ADJACENT NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE FUTURE LAND USE,
HENCE THE PEDESTRIAN-FRIENDLY.
ALONG MacDILL AND COLUMBUS, TWO CRITICAL TRANSPORTATION
CORRIDORS.
AND, YOU KNOW, I AM CLEARLY NOT IN SUPPORT OF THIS.
IT IS NOT THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT -- NOT THE TYPE OF
BUILDING OR SERVICE THAT SHOULD BE PUT IN THIS PARTICULAR
LOCATION.
SO I AM GOING TO VOTE IN OPPOSITION TO IT.
07:03:42PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANYBODY ELSE?
IF NOT, I WILL ASK COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, WOULD YOU LIKE TO
READ THIS ITEM.

NO, SIR.
GO AHEAD, COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
07:04:06PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
OKAY.
I WASN'T READY TO DO THAT, BUT I WILL.
OKAY.
I MOVE TO DENY FILE REZ 25-04 FOR REQUEST TO REZONE THE
PROPERTY GENERALLY LOCATED AT 2711 NORTH MacDILL FROM CG
TO PD, AIR-CONDITIONED STORAGE AND CLINIC.
THE PD REQUEST DOES NOT APPLY A PROCEDURE THAT CAN RELATE TO
THE TYPE, DESIGN, LAYOUT OF RESIDENTIAL AND NONRESIDENTIAL
OF THE PARTICULAR SITE.
DOES NOT PROMOTE OR ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT WHERE THE
APPROPRIATE LOCATION, CHARACTER AND COMPATIBILITY WITH THE
SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS AND BUILT-IN ENVIRONMENT AND
EXISTING GEOGRAPHY.
DOES NOT PROMOTE LIVING AND WORKING ENVIRONMENTS THAT WILL
BE POSSIBLE THROUGH STRICT APPLICATION OF OTHER ZONING
DISTRICTS NOR DOES IT PROMOTE ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES AND
THAT COMPLEMENT THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY AND ENHANCE THE
OVERALL QUALITY OF THE DEVELOPMENT.
07:05:08PM >>LYNN HURTAK:

THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED UNDER THE CC-35 DESIGNATION.
GIVEN THE NONRESIDENTIAL NATURE OF WEST PEARL STREET AND THE
EXISTING MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT TO THE NORTH, PLANNING
COMMISSION FINDS THE REQUEST COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING
AREA.
PD PROVIDES A TRANSITION FROM SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED
HOMES TO THE WEST TO THE MORE INTENSIVE NONRESIDENTIAL USES
TO THE EAST WHICH IS CONSISTENT TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
ADDITIONALLY NEIGHBORHOOD POLICY 1.1.2 EMPHASIZES THE
IMPORTANCE OF PROTECTING AND ENHANCING SINGLE-FAMILY
NEIGHBORHOODS OF TRANSITIONS BETWEEN NEIGHBORHOODS AND
ADJOINING AREAS.
FURTHERMORE, THE REQUEST WILL HAVE HOUSING AND TRANSIT AND
COMMERCIAL SERVICES WITHOUT ADVERSELY AFFECTING THE
CHARACTER OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
THE SITE IS WITHIN A MIXED USE CORRIDOR AND SHOULD ADDRESS
MIXED USE CENTERS AND CORRIDOR POLICIES OUTLINED IN THE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
ADDITIONALLY LAND USE POLICY 9.276 ENCOURAGES SINGLE-FAMILY
ATTACHED DEVELOPMENTS TO ORIENT FRONT DOORS TO NEIGHBORHOOD
SIDEWALKS AND STREETS.
AND IN CASES WHEN INTERNAL UNITS CANNOT ORIENT TOWARD A
NEIGHBORHOOD SIDEWALK OR STREET, PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIONS FROM
THE FRONT DOOR TO ADJACENT PUBLIC RIGHTS-OF-WAY ARE
ENCOURAGED.
TO CONNECT UNIT ENTRANCES TO ADJACENT PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAYS.
BASED ON OUR REVIEW, THE CURRENT DESIGN DOES NOT FULLY ALIGN
WITH THE POLICY GUIDANCE AS THE FRONT DOORS TO BUILDINGS 3,
4, 5, 8, 9 AND 10 ARE ORIENTED TOWARD AN INTERNAL DRIVE
AISLE AND DO NOT CONNECT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD SIDEWALK AND
STREET.
TOP ADDRESS THIS, THE APPLICANT AGREED TO MAKE THE FOLLOWING
REVISIONS BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READINGS.
LABEL TO FRONT DOORS IN UNITS BUILDINGS 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, AND
10.
AND RE-ORIENT THE UNIT FRONT ENTRANCES IN BUILDING 4, 5, 8
AND 9 TO FACE INTERNAL SIDEWALK AND COURTYARD.
SHOW AND LABEL THE SECOND ENTRANCES IN BUILDINGS 3 AND 10
THAT FACE THE SIDEWALK ALONG THE NORTHERN PROPERTY BOUNDARY
AND ADD PEDESTRIAN COLLECTIONS FROM THE SECOND ENTRANCES OF
BUILDING 3 AND 10 TO THE SIDEWALK ALONG THE NORTHERN
PROPERTY BOUNDARY.
ADD A PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION FROM THE FRONT DOORS TO BUILDING
3 AND 10 TO THE SIDEWALK IN BETWEEN UNITS -- BUILDING 3 AND
10.
FINALLY, PROVIDE CROSSWALK CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE INTERNAL
SIDEWALKS TO THE PUBLIC SIDEWALKS ALONG ADJACENT STREETS AND
THE SIDEWALKS ALONG THE NORTHERN PROPERTY LINE.
WITH THESE REVISION IT IS WILL ALOIN WITH THE PLAN'S
EMPHASIS WITH PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIVITY WHILE MINIMIZING
CONFLICTS BETWEEN PEDESTRIANS AND VEHICLES.
UNIT FRONT ENTRANCES FOR BUILDINGS 1, 2, 6 AND 7 ALREADY
ALIGNED WITH THE POLICY DIRECTION AS THEY ARE ORIENTED
TOWARD WEST PEARL AVENUE AND SOUTH MANHATTAN AVENUE.
IF THE PROPOSED REVISION MADE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
READINGS, THE PD WILL ADEQUATELY ADDRESS LAND USE POLICY
9.2.6 AND RELATED DESIGN POLICIES FOR THE MIXED USE AND
CENTERS.
ADDITIONALLY, THE PD IS IMPROVING PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIVITY BY
RETAINING AN EXISTING SIDEWALK ALONG WEST PEARL STREET AND
PROPOSE A NEW SIDEWALK ALONG MANHATTAN AVENUE.
SUPPORTS MANY POLICIES WITHIN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AS IT
RELATES TO HOUSING NEEDS OF TAMPA'S FUTURE AND PRESENT
POPULATIONS AND PROVIDING DIVERSE MOUSING OPPORTUNITIES THAT
ARE SERVED BY TRANSIT WHILE MAINTAINING THE CHARACTER OF
ESTABLISHED RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS.
OVERALL, THE PROPOSE BIRTHDAY IS CONSISTENT WITH THE POLICY
DIRECTION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN
ANTICIPATED UNDER THE CC-35 DESIGNATION AND COMPATIBLE WITH
THE SURROUND AREA.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
07:11:19PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
YES, SIR.
07:11:24PM >>SAMUEL THOMAS:
SAM THOMAS, LAND DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
WE WILL START WITH OUR AERIAL MAP.
YOU CAN SEE THE SUBJECT OUTLINED IN RED SOUTH MANHATTAN AND

DETACHED USES.
FURTHER SOUTHWEST, YOU CAN SEE SOME MORE SINGLE-FAMILY
ATTACHED USES THERE.
DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM THE SUBJECT SITE HERE, YOU HAVE -- AND
OVER HERE YOU HAVE RS-50 ZONING.
THIS PARCEL IS DEVELOPED WITH THE PLACE OF RELIGIOUS
ASSEMBLY AND THE OTHER PARCEL C DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM THE
SUBJECT SITE IS A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME THAT AS YOU MOVE
FARTHER NORTH, GANDY BOULEVARD WITH ADDITIONAL COMMERCIAL
USES.
I WILL MOVE TO THE SITE PLAN PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT NOW.
SO HERE IS THE SITE PLAN.
AND I WILL EXPLAIN SOME MORE OF THE DETAILS OF THE CHANGES
THAT EMILY SPOKE ABOUT EARLIER TO MAKE MORE SENSE OF THE
SITE PLAN.
THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING 54 SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED UNITS

AVENUE AND PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIONS TO THE SIDEWALK THAT EXIST
THERE IS ALREADY.
BUILDINGS 4, 5, 8 AND 9, AS EMILY MENTIONED, PLANNING
COMMISSION STAFF, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION STAFF AND
APPLICANT WORKED TOGETHER TO RE-ORIENT SOME OF THESE FRONT
DOORS AND ADD PEDESTRIAN CONSIDERATIONS.
FRONT DOORS ORIENTED TOWARD THE COURTYARD WITH A SIDE WALK.
THAT WILL BE DONE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
BUILDINGS 3 AND 10 HERE, THEIR FRONT DOOR ALSO BE ORIENTED
TOWARD THIS PRIVATE ROADWAY AND WILL HAVE SECOND ENTRANCES
-- SECOND ENTRANCES FACING THIS NORTHERN PROPERTY LINE WITH
AN ADDITIONAL WALK OF THE VACATED RIGHT-OF-WAY OF SOUTH
MANHATTAN.
ADDITIONALLY MORE PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIONS WILL HAD BEEN
ADDED.
THEY WILL BE ADDING SOME PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIONS ALONG THE
FRONT DOORS HERE TO CONNECT TO THE SIDEWALK THERE.
SAME HERE.
CROSSWALKS WILL BE ADDED HERE.
HERE AND ANOTHER CROSSWALK ADDED HERE DONE BETWEEN FIRST AND
SECOND READING.
VEHICULAR ACCESS OF THE SITE FROM SOUTH MANHATTAN AVENUE AND
WEST PEARL AVENUE AS WELL 135 PARKING SPACES ARE REQUIRED
AND 181 PARK SPACES ARE PROVIDED.
EACH UNIT WILL ARE A TWO-CAR GARAGE.
GARAGES FOR THESE UNITS HERE, HERE AND THERE.
AND ALONG THERE AS WELL.
FOR BUILDINGS 3, 4, 5, 8, 9 AND 10, THERE ARE DRIVEWAYS
PROVIDED WHILE THE UNITS THAT ARE FACING THE -- PUBLIC
STREETS DO NOT HAVE DRIVEWAYS, JUST GARAGES.
ADDITIONALLY ON-STREET PARKING OF A RIGHT-OF-WAY PERMIT
OUTSIDE OF THE ZONING BUT THE APPLICANT IS SHOWING THOSE ON
THE SITE PLAN; HOWEVER, NOT COUNTED TOWARD THEIR OVERALL
PARKING THAT IS PROVIDED.
APPLICANT IS ADDITIONAL PRESERVING A 31-INCH GRAND OAK HERE
AND 33-INCH GRAND LIVE OAK HERE.
AND THEY ARE ALSO PRESERVING A CLUSTER OF LIVE OAKS ALONG
THE EASTERN PROPERTY LINE.
I WILL SHOW YOU SOME PICTURES NOW.
THE ELEVATIONS IN PICTURES.
THESE ARE THE TYPICAL ELEVATIONS FOR BUILDINGS 1 AND 6.
AND BUILDINGS TWO AND SEVEN ELEVATIONS FOR BUILDINGS FOUR,
FIVE, EIGHT AND NINE.
LASTLY, THE ELEVATIONS ARE FOR BUILDING AND 10.
I WILL QUICKLY RUN THROUGH SOME PICTURES.
ANOTHER QUITE LARGE SITE OVER TWO ACRES.
A DECENT AMOUNT OF PICTURES TO WALK THROUGH THE ENTIRE SITE.
ALONG WEST PEARL AVENUE.
THIS IS LOOKING TOWARD SOUTH MANHATTAN AVENUE FROM HERE.
THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE THERE.
THIS IS LOOKING NORTH FROM WEST PEARL AVENUE.
THIS IS THAT CLUSTER OF LIVE OAKS ALONG THE EAST PROPERTY
LINE THAT WILL BE PRESERVED.
LOOKING EAST ON WEST PEARL ON THE COMMERCIAL USES WITH THE
COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE ZONING DISTRICT.
MOVING FURTHER WEST ALONG PEARL AVENUE.
BACK SIDE OF IT.
THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH ALONG PEARL AVENUE OF THE COMMERCIAL
INTENSIVE USES THAT ARE JUST SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
CLOSE TO SOUTH MANHATTAN, EXISTING STRUCTURE ON SUBJECT
SITE.
LOOKING AT THE BACK SIDE OF THE EXISTING STRUCTURE.
AND NOW WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO THE INTERSECTION OF WEST
PEARL AND SOUTH MANHATTAN AVENUE AND NOT COMMERCIAL
INTENSIVE USES AND SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED UNITS THAT I
MENTIONED FURTHER EARLIER ACROSS THE STREET.
WE HAVE NOT GOT TO THE INTERSECTION.
YOU CAN SEE THE SUBJECT SITE HERE, SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED
USES AN PLACES OF RELIGIOUS ASSEMBLY.
LOOKING NORTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
SOUTH MANHATTAN HERE.
NOW WE ARE LOOKING BACK EAST TOWARD THOSE COMMERCIAL
INTENSIVE USES EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE ON PEARL AVENUE.
LOOKING SOUTH AT THE INTERSECTION OF PEARL AND SOUTH
MANHATTAN, THE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED USES.
A BETTER VIEW OF THOSE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED USES THAT ARE
SOUTHWEST CADDY CORNER FROM THE SUBJECT SITE.
LOOKING NORTH ON MANHATTAN AVENUE.
THE SUBJECT SITE HERE.
PLACE OF RELIGIOUS ASSEMBLY IS HERE.
ANOTHER PLACE OF RELIGIOUS ASSEMBLY DIRECTLY ACROSS THE
STREET.

MOVING FURTHER NORTH, WE HAVE ANOTHER VIEW LOOKING EAST AT
THE SUBJECT SITE FROM SOUTH MANHATTAN AVENUE.
LOOKING NORTH ON MANS HAT TAN LOOKING TOWARD GANDY
BOULEVARD.
THIS IS NOW THAT WE ARE GETTING TOWARD THE NORTHERN END OF
THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING EAST FROM MANHATTAN.
LOOKING WEST ACROSS THE STREET ACROSS MANHATTAN AVENUE
ACROSS FROM THE SUBJECT SITE.
THE SINGLE-FAMILY HOME I SAID WAS DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM IT.
THE SINGLE-FAMILY FAMILY HOMES THAT ARE ACROSS THE STREET
ARE ORIENTED NOT TOWARD MANHATTAN AVENUE BUT TOWARD THE SIDE
STREETS THAT COME OFF OF MANHATTAN AVENUE.
BETTER OF HOW THEY ARE ORIENTED OF THE SIDE STREET TOWARD
MANHATTAN.
LOOKING AT THE VACATED RIGHT-OF-WAY THAT RUNS ALONG THE
NORTHERN SECTION OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
AND HERE IS THAT MULTIFAMILY THAT EXISTS DIRECTLY NORTH OF
THE SUBJECT SITE.
AND THAT CI ZONING DISTRICT.
YOU CAN KIND OF SEE GANDY BOULEVARD AND THE EXPRESSWAY
CONNECTOR AND THE -- AND THERE IS A BETTER VIEW OF THAT
MULTIFAMILY DIRECTLY NORTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
I WILL PUT THE PLAN BACK UP.
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION STAFF FINDS THE REQUEST TO BE
CONSISTENT.
SHOULD IT BE THE PLEASURE OF THE COUNCIL TO APPROVE, THE
MODIFICATION OF THE SITE PLAN ON THE REVISION SHEET MUST BE
COMPLETED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
I AM AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE NITROGEN QUESTIONS.
07:19:40PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
APPLICANT?
07:19:45PM >> GOOD EVENING, KAMI CORBITT WITH THE LAW FIRM OF HILL,
WARD AND HENDERSON.
WITH THE INTEREST OF TIME, WE WILL GO AHEAD AND GIVE OUR
PLANNING PRESENTATION FIRST.
07:19:56PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
HELLO, SIR, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
07:19:58PM >> I WANTED TO ZOOM OUT A LITTLE BIT.
MY NAME IS STEVE SPIZATO, AND I AM A CERTIFIED PLANNER WITH A
CONSULTING FIRM.
I HAVE BEEN PRACTICING IN FLORIDA -- PRACTICING PLANNER FOR
OVER 30 YEARS.
AND MOST OF THAT TIME IN FLORIDA.
I HOPE NOT TO BE TOO REDUNDANT BASED ON THE DETAIL OF THE
PRESENTATION -- THE PRESENTATION YOU ALREADY RECEIVED BUT
THIS IS A REDEVELOPMENT OF AN EXISTING SITE WITH A
LONG-STANDING WAREHOUSE.
IT CONSISTS OF A LARGE PARKING AREA.
CAN YOU ALL SEE --
07:20:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YEAH, IT IS GOOD.
07:20:49PM >> SO CONSISTENT WITH A LARGE PARKING AREA, CENTRAL BUILDING
AND OTHER ACCESSORY STRUCTURES.
THE COMP PLAN AND ZONING ARE ALREADY IN PLACE TO FACILITATE
A RANGE OF DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS.
IT IS A DYNAMIC PLACE.
IT HAS VITALITY.
AND REPRESENTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXERCISE QUALITY PLANS.
THIS IS A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE WANT TO LIVE, WORK AND SHOP.
AND IT IS FACILITATED THROUGH THE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT
PATTERN AND SUPPORTED BY THE CAMP PLAN AND THE CURRENT,
AGAIN, ZONING DESIGNATION.
WORKING WITH THE APPLICANT, WE INTENTIONALLY CHOSE THE PD
PROCESS TO ALLOW FOR TRANSPARENCY AND A COLLABORATIVE DESIGN
PROCESS.
WE DID HOLD A COMMUNITY MEETING.
WE SENT OUT INVITATIONS TO APPROXIMATELY 500 UNIQUE
ADDRESSES.
OUR PRESENTATION WILL DEMONSTRATE THE REDEVELOPMENT WILL
BENEFIT THE NEEDED AREA AND THE NEARBY AREA AND CONSISTENT
WITH THE COMP PLAN AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE ADJACENT
DEVELOPMENT.
THIS IS SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE SEEN, BUT, I LIKE
THIS VIEW, FROM A PLANNING PERSPECTIVE, YOU CAN SEE HOW THE
LAND USE IS FORMED BY THE POLICY GUIDANCE AND YOU GO SEE THE
BOUNDARY ALONG MANHATTAN TO THE WEST IS SINGLE-FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL.
AND OUR SITE, RED, ALLOWS FOR A MIX OF USES INCLUDING
SINGLE-USE RESIDENTIAL.
I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT WE ARE SUBSTANTIALLY LESS DENSE
THAN WHAT THE CC -- YEAH, THE CC-35 DESIGNATION ALLOWS.
I THINK YOU HEARD QUITE A BIT ABOUT WHAT IS ADJACENT.
WE JUST COLORED THE LAND USES TYPICALLY SERVICE YELLOW SHOWS
THE CHURCH DIRECTLY ADJACENT.
THE APARTMENTS TO THE SOUTH WHICH HAS THE SAME ZONING.
BUT THEY ACHIEVED WITH THE DEVELOPMENT HERE BASED ON THE
SPECIAL USE PROCESS.
AND THEN TO THE -- TO THE EAST, THERE IS THE DOG BOARDING
FACILITY.
AND WE HAVE SMALL SCALE RESIDENTIAL TO THE SOUTH.
WHAT WE ARE DOING CURRENTLY IS NOT IN A VACUUM -- SORRY.
THE CI DESIGNATION, COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE DESIGNATION ALLOWS
MANY USES BY RIGHT, WHICH DOESN'T REQUIRE A PD OR A SPECIAL
USE THAT IS MORE INTENSE THAN THE PROPOSED INTENSITY IS
OFTEN MEASURED BY TRAFFIC, HOURS OF OPERATION, LIGHT, THOSE
TYPES OF THINGS.
THOSE ARE EXAMPLES, I APOLOGIZE.
THESE ARE EXAMPLE WHAT WAS WILL BE ALLOWED BY RIGHT.
NEXT SERIES OF SLIDE FOCUS ON THE DESIGN.
AND THERE WILL BE SEVERAL -- SEVERAL DIFFERENT SLIDES.
THIS ONE IS THE PD PLAN.
WE HAVE ADDED SOME COLOR TO HAVE SHOW PARKING, BUT -- BUT
QUICK ORIENTATION AND I KNOW THAT SAM WENT OVER IT, BUT YOU
CAN SEE THAT WE HAVE UNITS ON SOUTH MANHATTAN.
FRONT DOORS FACING SOUTH MANHATTAN AND FACING WEST PEARL.
AND THE INTERIOR UNITS, WHICH ARE HERE AND HERE.
AND, OF COURSE, WE HAVE ACCESS POINT HERE AND ACCESS POINT
HERE AND CIRCULATION AROUND -- AROUND THIS SITE.
WE HAVE SUBSTANTIALLY -- WE KNOW PARKING IS A SIGNIFICANT
ISSUE.
WE HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE PARKING THAN REQUIRED BY THE
CODE, 3.35 UNITS -- SORRY, 3.35 SPACES PER UNIT AND 2.25
INCLUDING THE VISITOR PARKING AS REQUIRED.
JUST TO KIND OF SHOW HOW WE ARE ACCOMMODATING PARKING.
BROWN HERE ALONG THESE -- ON THE EDGE OF THESE BUILDINGS,
THESE -- THESE -- INCLUDE TWO-CAR GARAGES AS WELL ALL OF THE
INTERIOR UNITS.
TAN COLORS HERE.
TAN HERE.
TAN HERE.
ALSO HAVE TWO-CAR GARAGES.
PURPLE -- WE ARE SHOWING THE PURPLE HAVE TWO SMALL
PARKING SPACES IN FRONT OF THE GARAGES.
ALSO NOTING -- YOU CAN SEE IN THE SOUTHEAST CORNER A
DUMPSTER.
WE WILL NOT BE UTILIZING ROLL-OUT CONTAINERS.
THERE WON'T BE ROLL OUT CONTAINERS IN THE GARAGES, AND WE
WILL BE UTILIZING THE DUMPSTERS.
I SEE THAT.
THIS IS AN ILLUSTRATION OF OUR SITE PLAN.
FOCUS OF OUR DESIGN IS, AGAIN, CIRCULATION AND KIND OF THE
CONCEPT OF THE DRIVE AISLE AS IT RELATES TO TOWN HOUSES.
AND SO WE -- WE DELINEATED THE MINIMUM SEPARATION BETWEEN
BUILDINGS WHERE THERE IS AN AISLE OR AN ACCESSWAY.
SO YOU SEE 37.5, 2.5 AND 06 FEET.
WE HAVE -- WE HAVE 24 -- THE DRIVE AISLES OR ACCESSWAYS
THEMSELVES ARE 24 FEET.
ALL OF THIS IS 24 FEET AND THE STANDARD WIDTH SIMILAR TO THE
PAVEMENT ON MANHATTAN.
SIMILAR TO THE PAVEMENT ON PEARL.
WHAT WE ARE NOT DOING IS -- IS HERE.
THAT IS -- THAT IS A GRAPHIC FROM A PRESENTATION GIVEN TO
THE CITY COUNCIL A WHILE BACK IN DECEMBER OF 2023.
WE ARE ALSO JUST TO BE CLEAR, WE ARE NOT DOING ANY OF THIS.
AGAIN, IT SHOWS UNITS BACK -TO-BACK ON AN ALLEY WITHOUT ANY
LANDSCAPING COURTYARDS, THAT KIND OF THING.
GREEN SPACE.
TREE PRESERVATION.
ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO -- TO BE THE DESIGN OF THE SITE.
WE REVISED OUR PLAN TO ACCOMMODATE AN ALMOST GRAND OAK HERE.
YOU SEE THE SPACING.
AND THE GRAND OAK HERE.
KIND OF THE THEME IS THAT WE ARE PROVIDING MORE THAN
REQUIRED.
AND THAT IS SUSTAINED HERE.
AND PROVIDING SUBSTANTIALLY MORE GREEN SPACE THAN REQUIRED.
WE ARE ALSO -- KIND OF -- AS SAM INDICATED THIS PLAN
ACTUALLY SHOW IT IS A LITTLE BIT BETTER.
THE UNITS ALONG MANHATTAN AND PEARL FRONT DIRECTLY ON A
REFURBISHED SIDEWALK THAT WILL BE DONE ALONG PEARL.
AND THEN A BRAND-NEW SIDEWALK ALONG SOUTH MANHATTAN, AND THE
SIDEWALK, THAT WAS SHOWN BY THE PHOTOGRAPHS EARLIER.
AND THEN -- AS THAT -- THIS IS A -- OKAY.
STORM MANAGEMENT WAS A FACTOR.
WHAT WE HEARD AT THE COMMUNITY MEETING HAD TO DO WITH
STORMWATER.
AS A RESIDENT OF TAMPA, I UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF
THIS OVER WHAT OCCURRED THE LAST YEAR.
WE DID MORE ENGINEERING THAN YOU TYPICALLY DO AS PART OF THE
REZONE UNDER STAND THIS SITE AND THE QUESTIONS REGARDING
THIS ISSUE.
THE LEFT IS THE CURRENT SITE.
EXISTING DEVELOPMENT.
SHOWS THE IMPERVIOUS AND START OF THIS PINK COLOR.
AND THEN THE PERVIOUS IS THE GREEN.
AND THEN ON THE -- THIS SITE IS OUR SITE, SHOWING HOW THE --
HOW WE BREAK UP THE MASS OF PARKING AND ADD GREEN SPACES,
YOU KNOW, AND -- AND WERE SIGNIFICANT -- WERE SIGNIFICANTLY
-- WE HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE PERVIOUS AREA THAN WHAT IS
CURRENTLY ON THE SITE.
ALSO, CONSISTENT WITH THE STORMWATER ADVISORY
RECOMMENDATIONS, WE ARE NOT UTILIZING ANY CREDITS FROM THE
EXISTING IMPERVIOUS AREA.
AND -- WE ARE ALSO MODERNIZING THE STORMWATER SYSTEM BASED
ON CURRENT REQUIREMENTS.
THIS IS JUST A -- A STREETSCAPE RENDERING OF WHAT WEST
PEARL WILL LOOK LIKE.
IT ACTIVATES THE -- THE STREET AS A PUBLIC SPACE.
IT HAS -- YOU CAN SEE THE ENHANCEMENTS THAT WERE PROVIDED
INCLUDING PARKING, LANDSCAPING AND THEN THE FRONT DOORS, AS
WELL AS THE ARCHITECTURE ALL LEND TO ACTIVATE THAT STREET
FOR PUBLIC USE.
THIS IS JUST AN OBLIQUE VIEW OF THE SITE.
AGAIN, KIND OF SHOWING HOW IT FITS WITH THE ADJACENT
DEVELOPMENT NORTH AND TO THE EAST.
I WILL JUST QUICKLY SUMMARIZE.
WE ACHIEVED A HIGH LEVEL DESIGN -- SORRY -- WITHOUT THE NEED
FOR WAIVERS.
WE ARE NOT MAXIMIZING DENSITY.
WE ARE NOT REDUCING IMPERVIOUS.
WE ARE EXCEEDING PARKING, AND WE ARE PROTECTING EXISTING
TREES.
I HAVE ONE LAST SLIDE, I PROMISE.
HERE WE GO.
EIGHT REVIEW CRITERIA FOR THE DISTRICT.
FIVE OF WHICH APPLY TO OUR PROJECT SITE.
THEY ARE OUTLINED ON THIS SLIDE.
WE HAVE POSITIVE FINDINGS FOR EACH.
ALSO CONFIRMED BY STAFF.
NOT GOING TO GO INTO EACH ONE OF THOSE, BUT IN MY
PROFESSIONAL OPINION, WHICH IS ALSO, AGAIN, CONFIRMED BY
YOUR STAFF REPORT, THE PROPOSAL IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMP
PLAN AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT AND IT
FITS THE INTENT OF THE PD PROCESS.
AND WITH THAT, IN MY VERY AWKWARD USE OF THE ELMO, I WILL
TURN IT OVER TO MAC.
07:31:15PM >> THANK YOU, STEVEN.
07:31:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YOUR NAME.
07:31:21PM >> MAC McCRAW.
RESIDENT OF TAMPA, NICHOLAS STREET IN TAMPA.
I AM THE APPLICANT FOR THE REZONING AND A REPRESENTATIVE
FOR MATTAMY HOMES.
YOU GUYS DID A GREAT JOB.
STEVEN, THANK YOU.
I DON'T WANT TO GET TOO REDUNDANT TO TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT MATTAMY.
WE HAVE BEEN FOCUSED IN SOUTHWEST FLORIDA FOR TEN YEARS.
I HAVE BEEN WITH THE TAMPA FOR TEN YEARS AND I AM EXCITED IN
TAMPA.
MY FIRST TIME IN FRONT OF YOU GUYS.
AND I ENJOY THAT, BECAUSE I LIVE IN TAMPA.
I LIVE IN PALMA CEIA PARK.
MY WIFE AND I LIVED THERE 21 YEARS WITH OUR FAMILY.
MATTAMY HOMES IS FOCUSED ON SUSTAINABILITY.
I KNOW THAT IS IMPORTANT TO EVERYBODY, BUT I -- I WILL LEAVE
HERE FOR THE RECORD OUR 62-PAGE SUSTAINABILITY REPORT WHICH
IS PART OF OUR -- ON OUR EXTERNAL WEB SITE.
WE SAY IT.
WE MEAN IT.
WE ARE FOCUSED ON IT.
AND ALL OF OUR PROJECTS ARE TRYING TO INCORPORATE WAYS TO
GET TO A CARBON NEUTRAL NET ZERO ENVIRONMENT.
THAT IS WHAT WE ARE FOCUSED ON AND DOING IT IN ALL OF OUR
COMMUNITIES.
WE ARE LEADING THE WAY IN -- IN TAMPA WITH CARBON NEUTRAL
AND CARBON CONCRETE AND OTHER BUILDERS ARE STARTING TO
UTILIZE THAT AND WE ARE KIND OF THE LEADER IN THAT INDUSTRY
AND FOCUS ON THE ENVIRONMENT.
I LOVE TAMPA.
LIKE I SAID, I GREW UP HERE.
I KNOW THE GROWTH COMES WITH SOME GROWING PAINS.
AND WE WILL LIKELY HEAR ABOUT SOME OF THOSE TONIGHT.
I SEE THE BENEFITS.
I LOVE THE REVITALIZED WALKABILITY.
I LOVE THE DEDICATED BIKE PATHS.
THE ENERGY.
THE NEW RESTAURANTS.
TAMPA IS SUCH A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE.
YOU KNOW WHY WE WANT TO COME AND INVEST HERE AND BUILD
HOMES, QUALITY HOMES.
SOME GROWTH BRINGS MORE TAX REVENUE FROM NEW DEVELOPMENTS.
THESE DOLLARS ARE HELPING TAMPA MODERNIZE AND REPLACE THE
AGING INFRASTRUCTURE.
WE CAN SEE THE RESULTS OF THESE EFFORTS ACROSS THE CITY AND
WHILE CONSTRUCTION CAN BE DISRUPTED, THESE IMPROVEMENTS ARE
MAKING TAMPA AN EVEN MORE ATTRACTIVE PLACE TO LIVE.
MODERNIZING CREATES MORE VARIETY OF HOUSING.
WE HEARD OF THAT OF THE PLANNERS.
FINISHED FLOORS ABOVE THE ELEVATIONS.
I WILL INCLUDE LETTERS OF SUPPORT IN THE RECORD -- AND YOU
HAVE GOTTEN THEM AND THEY CAME IN LATE TODAY.
WE HEARD FROM CITIZENS WHO WANT NEW HOUSING THAT IS ABOVE
THE FLOOD PLAIN ESPECIALLY IN THE MID-RANGE PRICING AND
THAT'S WHAT WE ARE GOING TO OFFER.
MISSING MIDDLE IS WHAT YOUR PLANNING REPORT REFERS TO IT AS.
SO I DO THINK THAT VOTING NO ON A THOUGHTFULLY PLANNED
PROJECT IS ONLY PUTTING MORE BURDEN ON OUR CONSTRAINED
HOUSING SUPPLY AND MAKING TAMPA AN EVEN MORE UNAFFORDABLE
PLACE TO LIVE SO MATTAMY'S PROJECTS IN THE HEART OF THE CITY
WHERE DEMAND AND PEOPLE LIKE ME STAY AND LIVE.
I PLAN TO LIVE HERE THE REST OF MY LIFE.
HOUSING IS EXPENSIVE AND THIS WILL SOLVE SOME OF THE NEED.
I LOVE THIS PROJECT IS FROM MY HOMETOWN.
BEING FROM TAMPA, IT IS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO MEET WITH THE
RESIDENTS.
WE INTENTIONALLY DID THE PD TO MEET WITH THE STAKEHOLDERS.
WE NOTIFIED OVER -- 500 LETTERS WERE SENT IN A HALF-MILE --
QUARTER-MILE RADIUS.
WE ONLY HAD TO DO 300 FEET.
QUARTER MILE, 500 LETTERS.
WE TALKED TO MANY PEOPLE.
SOME WERE IN SUPPORT.
WE HAD A GREAT -- LET'S CALL IT LIVELY MEETING AT THE GANDY
CIVIC ASSOCIATION.
THANK YOU FOR MEETING US THERE AND HOSTING.
AND I THINK WE HAVE ADDRESSED A LOT OF THEIR FEEDBACK.
WE HAD A BETTER PLAN BECAUSE OF IT.
IT IS A BETTER PLAN BECAUSE OF THE RESULTS OF THOSE
MEETINGS.
AND WITH THAT, I JUST WANT TO REITERATE, IT IS CONSISTENT.
IT IS COMPATIBLE.
THERE IS NO WAIVERS.
IT IS AN ALLOWABLE USE IN THE CI LAND USE CATEGORY.
WE RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR APPROVAL TONIGHT.
I DO WANT TO ADD WE -- AFTER OUR MEETING WITH THEM, WE HAVE
A -- BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING --
07:35:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
YOU WILL HAVE TIME FOR REBUTTAL AFTER PUBLIC COMMENT.
COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
07:35:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION.
ON THE SITE PLAN, CAN YOU SHOW ME WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO
ACCOMMODATE RESIDENTIAL GARBAGE?
07:35:32PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND --
07:35:36PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I WAS TRYING TO FIND IT.
07:35:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
IT WAS RIGHT HERE.
07:35:39PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
YEAH.
HOW ABOUT JUST TRASH CANS FOR THE RESIDENTS?
07:35:45PM >> RIGHT HERE.
07:35:45PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THAT IS A DUMPSTER.
HOW ABOUT RESIDENTIAL TRASH CANS.
07:35:49PM >> THERE WON'T BE.
THEY WILL GO TO THE DUMPSTER.
07:35:52PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
BRING IT RIGHT FROM THE HOUSE TO THE
DUMPSTER.
07:35:56PM >> OUR HOA WILL HAVE A SERVICE TO PICK UP GARBAGE.
07:36:00PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
FEE SIMPLE FOR SALE UNITS?
07:36:04PM >> YES, SIR.
07:36:05PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
BEAUTIFUL.
THANK YOU.
07:36:06PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
PUBLIC COMMENT.
ANYBODY FROM THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER
9.
COME ON UP.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO RAISE YOUR HAND.
YOU CAN JUST COME UP ONE BY ONE.
GOOD EVENING.
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
07:36:17PM >> GOOD EVENING, CITY COUNCIL.
MY NAME IS SANDY DE DIEGO SANCHEZ AND HERE TO SPEAK FOR
CARROLL ANN BENNETT WHO IS SICK AND DID NOT HAVE TIME TO
ARRANGE FOR A CONFERENCE CALL AND I WOULD LIKE TO READ HER
MESSAGE TO THE COUNCIL, IF I MAY.
IT SAYS DEAR COUNCILMEMBERS, I AM RECOVERING FROM THE FLU
AND I THOUGHT I WOULD BE ABLE TO ATTEND TONIGHT, BUT I
OVERDID THINGS YESTERDAY AND I NEED TO REST AND PUT MY
HEALTH FIRST.
MARCH 7, 2024, YOU WERE TOLD BY STAFF THAT 18 X 18 GARAGES
WERE NOT USABLE BY TWO CARS.
YOU WERE TOLD PEOPLE WOULD BE FORCED TO JUMP OUT THE
WINDOWS.
STAFF STATED AND I TALKED TO ARCHITECTS WITH EXPERIENCES
SAYING THAT TWO-CAR GARAGES SHOULD BE A MINIMUM OF 20 X 20.
HE ASKED OF MAKING THE GARAGES SMALLER.
THEY SAID IT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA TO EVEN CONSIDER IT.
DRC COMMENT, THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT ASKED THEM TO
MAKE THE GARAGES 20 X 20 FEET AND DEVELOPER ARE VERY FUSED
TO DO THAT.
THEREFORE IN THE REAL WORLD THESE ARE ONE HOME RUN CAR
GARAGES.
TWO-CAR GARAGES ONLY IN A MAKE-BELIEVE WORLD.
THE QUESTION YOU COUNCILMEMBERS MUST ASK YOURSELF, DOES TAMPA
WANT TO APPROVE MAKE-BELIEVE GARAGES.
WE ALL KNOW THE ANSWER IS NO.
AT THAT MARCH MEETING, YOU COUNCILMEMBERS SAID YOU DO NOT
WANT DEVELOPERS TO BUILD UNUSABLE GARAGES, THEREFORE, YOU
MUST MAKE THE DEVELOPER INCREASE THE GARAGES TO 20 X 20 EVEN
IF THEY MUST REDUCE THE NUMBER OF UNITS TO ACCOMPLISH THIS.
THAT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY AND HONEST THING TO DO.
IF YOU DON'T, IT MEANS THAT IN THE REAL WORLD, THEY WILL
BUILD 54 ONE-CAR GARAGES.
IT MEANS IN THE REAL WORLD THEY DO NOT MEET THEIR PARKING
REQUIREMENTS.
IF YOU DON'T, IT MEANS IN THE REAL WORLD DAILY FRUSTRATION
AND STRESS FOR THE NEW OWNERS.
BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T KNOW A REAL ESTATE LISTING WITH TWO-CAR
GARAGE IS ONLY MAKE BELIEVE.
PLEASE REQUIRE THE HIGH-QUALITY REAL WORLD DEVELOPMENT THAT
TAMPA DESERVES.
SAY NO TO MEDIOCRITY AND SAY NO TO A MAKE-BELIEVE WORLD.
THANK YOU, CARROLL ANN BENNETT.
07:38:34PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERT MUCH.
NEXT SPEAKER, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
07:38:37PM >> GOOD EVENING, AILEEN MAYER.
MAY I APPROACH AND GIVE YOU SOME HANDOUTS.
07:38:46PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
SURE.
PLEASE HAND THEM TO THE ATTORNEY AND HE WILL PUT THEM INTO
THE RECORD.
07:38:51PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCILMEMBERS.
MY NAME IS AILEEN MAYER, AND I AM IN OPPOSITION TO THE
REZONING PROPOSAL.
THERE ARE MULTIPLE REASONS TO OPPOSE THIS PROPERTY BEING
REZONED RESIDENTIAL, INCLUDING FLOODING, STORMWATER,
DRAINAGE, OVERPOPULATION, AND TRAFFIC.
TONIGHT, I JUST WANT TO ADDRESS THE TRAFFIC ISSUE.
IF YOU LOOK AT MY HANDOUT -- I AM SORRY, I DIDN'T HAVE THE
PRESENTATION.
I THINK WE ALL SEEN THIS.
THIS IS THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION BUT RIGHT DIAGONAL ACROSS
STREET IS ALREADY TOWN HOMES.
BESIDES THAT -- NOT ON MY MAP, BUT RIGHT OVER HERE, OUR
LEGACY TOWN HOMES.
SOME WITHIN THIS PROPERTY RIGHT HERE IS AMSOUTH.
AMSOUTH, WHICH I BELIEVE HAS 288 UNITS.
SO WITHIN FEET, WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE, THREE OTHER
RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS.
ALL THE ROAD SOUTH OF GANDY ARE SINGLE LANES WITH THE
EXCEPTION OF DALE MABRY HIGHWAY.
I THINK MOST OF US LIVE IN TAMPA, SO WE ALL KIND OF KNOW
THAT.
LET ME SWITCH THIS.
IF YOU -- I HAVE LISTED ALL THE APARTMENTS, TOWN HOMES AND
CONDOS.
AND AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE IS A PLETHORA OF THEM.
THIS IS A PHOTO I TOOK ONLY LAST THURSDAY NIGHT.
LAST THURSDAY NIGHT AS YOU CAN SEE THE TRAFFIC, THERE IS
WALLACE CIRCLE.
THIS IS TWO BLOCKS FROM THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION.
SO AS YOU CAN SEE, THE TRAFFIC IS ALREADY BEYOND WALLACE
CIRCLE AND ALL THE WAY DOWN OKLAHOMA.
LAST THURSDAY WAS NOT A HOLIDAY.
THIS WAS NO ACCIDENTS.
I CAME FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF MANHATTAN.
I CROSSED GANDY.
THERE IS NO ACCIDENTS HOLDING UP.
THIS IS JUST NORMAL, AVERAGE, RUSH-HOUR TRAFFIC.
I LIVE ON WALLACE CIRCLE.
THERE IS ONE WAY IN.
AND ONE WAY OUT, WHICH IS MANHATTAN.
SO I AM -- I AM SOMEBODY WHO TRAVELS MANHATTAN AVENUE EVERY
SING IS DAY.
I JUST -- SINGLE DAY.
I JUST WANT TO GO TO THE LAST PAGE.
IF YOU FLIP TO PAGE NUMBER 8.
RIGHT HERE IS A STUDY.
THE STUDY IS DONE BY THE CITY OF TAMPA.
HERE IS YOUR SOURCE.
HERE IS YOUR WEB SITE.
THEY HAVE SERVICE LEVELS.
THE LOWEST LEVEL S AN F.
MANHATTAN IS ALREADY AN F.
YOU CAN'T GO ANY LOWER THAN THAT.
ALSO WEST SHORE IS IN THE SAME THING.
ANYBODY THAT LIVES IN THE WEST SHORE AREA IS GOING TO CUT
OVER TO MANHATTAN.
AND MANHATTAN PEOPLE CUT OVER TO WEST SHORE AND VICE VERSA.
TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF GROWTH AND I AM OPPOSED TO THE
REZONING.
AS I SAID, THE TRAFFIC IS ALREADY HORRIBLE.
AND UNTIL YOU WIDEN THE ROADS ON WEST SHORE AND MANHATTAN,
IT WON'T GET ANY BETTER.
ADDING MORE RESIDENTIAL IS IRRESPONSIBLE IN MY OPINION.
07:41:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY WERE.
07:41:56PM >> THANK YOU.
07:41:59PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
PLEASE COME UP.
TOM SCHREIBER 810 SOUTH BAYSHORE DRIVE TAMPA MY PROPERTY --
THE PROPERTY -- THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS AT THE NORTHEAST
CORNER OF MANHATTAN.
MY PROPERTY IS ON THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF MANHATTAN.
ALSO, I HAVE A PROPERTY -- PROPERTY AT 5220 SOUTH MANHATTAN.
I ALSO HAVE A PROPERTY AT 4314 PEARL AVENUE.
THE REASON I AM FAMILIAR WITH THE PROPERTY, IT WAS AN OLD
PLANT.
I AM IN THE FOOD DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS.
AND WHEN I SAW -- I HAD CALLED TEXAS TO SEE IF I COULD
PERHAPS PURCHASE THE BUILDING.
MY ZONING IS COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE.
SO WE TALK ABOUT TRAFFIC.
I CAN PUT A GAS STATION IN THERE AND NOT ASK FOR ANY
PERMISSION AND HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE COMING AND GOING.
ALSO, IF THEY -- IF THEY DID NOT BUY THAT PROPERTY, THEY
COULD RUN 40 FOOT REEFERS IN THERE ALL DAY LONG AND DON'T
NEED A VARIANCE.
WHEN I TALKED TO MAC AND SAW WHAT WAS GOING ON.
I SAID A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF PROPERTY.
PLENTY OF PARKING.
PLENTY OF GREEN SPACE.
RIGHT NOW IF YOU GO THERE, IT IS ALL CEMENT.
DURING THE FLOOD -- WHICH MY HOUSE FLOODED, FIVE FEET OF
WATER.
MANHATTAN AND THE TWO BUILDINGS I HAVE ON MANHATTAN, WE
DIDN'T GET AN OUNCE OF WATER IN THE BUILDINGS.
SO FROM THE FLOOD STANDPOINT, IT IS NOT HAPPENING.
I CAN THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL PROJECT.
I THINK I AM ABOUT AS NERVOUS AS HE IS.
BUT ALSO, IF THAT PROJECT PROCEEDS, THERE WILL BE SOME
BEAUTIFUL THINGS DONE IN THAT AREA.
BECAUSE IT IS A MISH-MASH ON THE EAST SIDE OF CI ZONING.
SO IT DEPENDS ON WHAT -- I HOPE THIS IS APPROVED.
BECAUSE IF NOT, YOU CAN OPEN UP FOR -- THEY CAN TURN IT BOOK
IN A MANUFACTURING FACILITY.
A COLD STORAGE FACILITY.
I THINK IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PROJECT.
AND I AM NOT SURE ABOUT THE TWO-CAR GARAGES, BUT I THINK
THEY HAVE A LOT OF PARKING AND GREEN SPACE.
I AM 150% IN FAVOR OF THIS PROJECT.
AND I AM A LANDOWNER WITHIN -- RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET AND I
BOUGHT.
SO THANK YOU.
07:44:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
YES, MA'AM, NEXT SPEAKER.
ANYONE ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK?
IF SO, PLEASE LINE UP AGAINST THE WALL SO WE GET AN IDEA.
07:44:26PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE YOU ARE HERE AND WAIVING
YOUR THREE MINUTES TO GIVE THE SPEAKER AN EXTRA MINUTE.
ANDY JOHNSON.
THANK YOU.
ASTRID FORTELLA.
DEBRA STEELE.
THANK YOU.
CHRISTINA STAFFORD.
THANK YOU.
AND DENISE McCUE.
ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, AND FIVE.
07:44:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
07:45:05PM >> STEPHANIE POYNOR.
I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT VERY, VERY SPECIFICALLY WHAT THE
GENTLEMAN TOLD IS YOU NOT WHAT IS ON BASE.
NOT WHAT IS IN ACELA AND I AM GOING TO SHOW YOU DOCUMENTS IN
ON BASE AND IN ACELA.
THIS IS NOT THE PROJECT THEY PRESENTED TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS.
AND THERE ARE MULTIPLE FOLKS IN THIS ROOM THAT WERE THERE
THAT THEY DID NOT PRESENT THIS TO US.
NUMBER ONE, I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT -- OH -- WHAT IS
GOING TO HAPPEN IF I TAKE THIS AND I POUR ALL OF THIS INTO
THIS CLASS?
IT IS GOING TO RUN OVER, RIGHT..
BECAUSE IT IS TOO MUCH.
MORE THAN WE CAN HANDLE.
WE ARE FULL.
JUST LIKE THIS GLASS AND THE WATER RUNS EVERYWHERE.
THAT IS WHAT S.O.G. IS.
JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND.
TOWN HOUSES ON THE SOUTHEAST SIDE, THEY WERE BUILT BEFORE
2005 WHICH IS BEFORE IT.
JUST SAYING.
OKAY.
SO WHILE I HAVE SEEN WORSE PROJECTS THIS WEEK, I HAVE GIVEN
YOU A SPREADSHEET OF THE OTHER PROJECTS IN S.O.G., BY THE TIME
WE ARE FINISHED 10,570 UNITS SINCE 2016 APPEAR AND THAT NICE
LADY POINTED OUT AM SOUTH.
AND I AM REMINDING YOU THOSE WERE APARTMENTS LONG BEFORE I
STARTED ON THIS.
HIGHLIGHTED IN 2024, LOOK AT ALL THESE APARTMENT COMPLEXES
THAT THEY ARE TAXES HAVE WENT DOWN IN THE 2024 COLUMN
BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T FULL.
THEY DOUBLED OUR TOWNHOUSES SOUTH OF GANDY SINCE 2016.
THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO THE DRC.
JONATHAN SCOTT ASKED -- RECOMMENDED THAT THE GARAGES BE
20 X 20 NOT ON THE SITE PLANS AS TURNED IN ON BASE.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE IT AND YOU WILL HAVE TO ASK MR.
THOMAS IF HE HAS AN UPDATED VERSION.
I HAVEN'T SEEN IT.
IT WASN'T THERE TODAY BECAUSE I PULLED THIS STUFF OFF TODAY.
THIS SAYS GARAGES ARE 18 X 18.
THIS GENTLEMAN SAID 20 FOOT, 7 INCHES.
HERE IS THE PROBLEM -- YOU KNOW I LOVE MATH.
I LOVE BASIC MATH.
THIS PARTICULAR SET OF UNITS IS 144 FEET WIDE.
DIVIDE THAT BY 6, THAT IS 24 INCHES.
BUT WHAT THEY FAILED TO TALK ABOUT IS THAT THE FRONT DOORS
ARE THERE.
NOW EVERY FRONT DOOR I HAVE EVER SEEN HAS TO BE 36 INCHES
WIDE BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GET YOUR REFRIGERATOR AND STOVE IN
THERE.
IT HAS TO BE 36 INCHES WIDE.
SOME THAT BRINGS THEM DOWN TO 21 FEET.
AND I AM NOT EVEN TALKING ABOUT THE FRAME.
YOU HAVE TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THAT CINDERBLOCKS ARE EIGHT
INCHES WIDE.
ONLY 21 INCHES WIDE AND YOU GOT TO THE PUT IN EIGHT INCH
CINDERBLOCKS ON EACH SIDE, YOU LOSE EVEN MORE SPACE.
WHERE THEY GOT THAT 20-FOOT-WIDE BY 20-FOOT-DEEP NUMBER, I
DON'T KNOW.
IT IS NOT WHAT WAS "ON BASE" TODAY.
IF YOU PLAN IN FRONT OF CITY COUNCIL, WE SHOULD DO IT EVERY
DAY.
WE SHOULD DO IT EVERY DAY.
THIS PLAN WAS INCOMPLETE.
IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN HERE AND BEEN CHANGED IN FRONT OF
YOUR FACES.
OKAY.
NEXT, LET'S SEE.
WAIVER.
LIKE THIS.
THIS IS IN YOUR PACKET.
REMOVE THE WAIVER FROM THE SITE PLAN.
WHAT CITY STAFF SAID TO DO.
WAIVER THEY ARE REMOVING FROM THE SITE PLAN IS WHERE THE --
THEY DON'T FACE THE STREET.
WHICH WE ALL KNOW THEY JUST SHOWED YOU THEY DON'T FACE THE
STREET.
AND HERE -- HERE IS THE PROBLEM BE WITH THAT.
SAYS ENCLOSURE IN THE FRONT DOORS FOR BUILDINGS 3 AND 10
FACE A PRIVATE ROADWAY.
THEY HAVE TO FACE THE PRIVATE ROADWAY, RIGHT.
THIS IS YOUR DOOR FRONT WITH THE 18 X 18 GARAGE AND THEN
SAYS 4, 5 AND 8 WHICH ARE THESE IN HERE, THEY HAVE TO OPEN
THIS WAY.
HERE IS THE THING, THIS IS WHAT THEY ARE SHOWING ON THAT
SIDE.
Y'ALL -- WHEN HAVE Y'ALL SEEN A FRONT SLIDING PATIO DOOR?
YOU DON'T.
34, 76 WITH THE GLASS INSERTS.
THEY ARE NOT EVEN 36 INCHES WIDE BECAUSE THEY DON'T OPEN ALL
THE WAY.
THEY HAVE TO ALWAYS OVERLAP.
YOU CAN'T MAKE THE FRONT DOOR THE WAY IT IS.
WHY DID THEY COME IN TONIGHT AND TELL YOU THEY WERE DOING
SOMETHING DIFFERENT?
I DON'T KNOW.
BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT IS IN ON BASE TODAY.
OKAY, NEXT.
THESE ARE ALWAYS MY FAVORITE.
IF WE DONE 18 X 18 GARAGES.
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, ONE-CAR GARAGES.
ALL THESE UNITS HERE DON'T HAVE A DRIVEWAY.
THESE WE CAN LIVE WITH BECAUSE THEY HAVE DRIVEWAYS TO PUT
THE CARS IN.
IT IS WHAT IT IS.
THESES ARE ONE-CAR GARAGES 18 X 18.
YOU CAN NOT STRETCH 21 FEET.
YOU CAN NOT MAKE A 20-FOOT GARAGE BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO TAKE
THE 16 INCHES OFF FOR THE BLOCKS.
THE OTHER THING THAT I NOTICED, WE ARE AT -- YOU KNOW, I
KNOW THAT WE HAVE OF THIS GREEN SPACE THING.
BUT WE ARE AT 24% PERMEABLE SURFACE.
THAT IS NOT MUCH, ONE QUARTER.
THEY SAY -- RIGHT NOW IT IS ALL IMPERMEABLE.
WHAT ABOUT THIS THREE TO FOUR-FOOT DITCH, NICE DITCH THAT IS
BUILT ALL THE WAY ON THE WEST SIDE, AND ALL THE WAY ON THE
NORTH SIDE.
WHERE IT KEPT ALL THAT WATER FROM RUNNING OFF INTO THE ROAD
JUST TO THE NORTH OF THERE, SAYS JUNE OF 2024, FOLKS.
NOT HURRICANE TIME.
THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME IT GETS A GOOD RAIN.
FOUR HOURS AFTER IT RAINED AND WE HAD SO MUCH RAIN THERE,
THAT THE POLICES HAD TO COME AND SIT ON EITHER SIDE OF IT.
WHERE TO YOU THINK THAT RAIN WATER IS GOING TO GO THAT IS
NOT GOING TO BE HELD IN THAT DITCH ANYMORE.
I DON'T KNOW.
Y'ALL FINISH IT OFF.
Y'ALL ARE MUCH SMARTER THAN I AM.
THIS IS PEARL AVENUE.
THEY SHOWED YOU NICE DRY FIXTURES OF PEARL AVENUE.
THIS IS THE STREET.
THIS IS THE OTHER STREET.
THESE ARE THE TWO CROSS STREETS WHERE WE WANT TO BUILD ALL
THIS IMPERMEABLE SURFACE.
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, THIS GENTLEMAN JUST CAME UP HERE
AND SAID IT COULD BE A GAS STATION.
IT CAN BE THIS AND THAT.
GUESS WHAT, NOBODY EVACUATES FROM ANY OF THOSE.
NO ONE EVACUATES FROM ANY OF THOSE.
THEY ARE NOT FILLING UP OUR CUP ANYMORE.
THEY ARE GIVING PEOPLE JOBS.
EVERY BIT OF THESE 10,000 UNITS DAMN NEAR ALL OF THEM WERE
BUILT ON COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY.
WE HAVE LOST OVER 100 ACRES OF COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL
PROPERTY IN THE CITY OF TAMPA IN THE LAST TEN YEARS.
IN AND YET, HERE WE ARE AGAIN WITH PEOPLE WITH AN INCOMPLETE
PLAN.
ASK MR. THOMAS IF HE KNEW ABOUT THE 20 X 20 GARAGES.
ASK HIM IF HE KNEW.
OH, MY GOSH.
I ALMOST FORGOT.
HOLD ON.
NOW WE ARE GOING TO MAKE OUR FRONT DOORS HERE.
NOW IF YOU LOOK AT THIS, YOU ARE MAKING IT INTO A SIDE -- IT
IS -- LOOK AT IT, A SIDEWALK, OKAY.
BUT THEY GOT FENCES ALL AROUND IT.
TOOK ME A WHEEL TO FIGURE OUT.
IT SAYS -- STAFF SAYS THESE ARE THE FRONT DOORS.
THAT IS WHAT STAFF SAYS IT HAS TO DO BUT HERE IS THE SITE
PLAN.
SAYS THAT THE FRONT DOORS ARE ON THE GARAGE SIDE OF THE
HOUSE.
NOW THEY CAN'T DO THIS AND THIS.
SO -- THIS PROJECT IS NOT COMPLETE ACCORDING TO THE TWO
DOCUMENTS HERE.
THEY DON'T MAKE ANY SENSE SO PLEASE DON'T APPROVE THIS.
IT IS RIDICULOUS.
07:53:17PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANYBODY ELSE COMING UP TO SPEAK AND THE
GENTLEMAN IN THE BLACK T-SHIRT AGAINST THE WALL IS THE LAST
PUBLIC COMMENT.
COME ON UP AND PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
TOM KIRSTEN, NEAR PLANT HIGH SCHOOL.
I HAVE AN AFFILIATION OF THIS SITE THIS PROJECT IN THE
WAY OF MY EMPLOYER WHO OFFERS TRANSACTIONAL AND BROKERAGE
SURFACES ON BEHALF OF THE GROUP THAT PURCHASED THIS
PROPERTY.
I BELIEVE WE ARE ON A TRANSACTIONAL ROLE BETWEEN BUYER AND
SELLER.
LISTENING TONIGHT, THE PRIOR GENTLEMAN THAT CAME UP, HIS
CONCERN.
07:54:03PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
JUST A MOMENT, SIR, MR. SHELBY, WOULD HE
BE CONSIDERED PART OF THE PETITION FOR WHAT HE JUST SAID?
07:54:12PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
HOW ARE YOU RELATED TO THE APPLICANT?
07:54:14PM >> MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT.
07:54:16PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YOUR PLACE OF APPOINTMENT.
07:54:19PM >> FRANKLIN STREET BROKERED SERVICE THAT HAS THE LISTING ON
BEHALF OF THE CURRENT OWNER OF THE PROPERTY.
AND WE DELIVERED THIS SITE TO SEVERAL DEVELOPERS IN TOWN.
SO WE ARE NOW IN A TRANSACTIONAL CAPACITY BECAUSE WE
REPRESENT THE CURRENT OWNER AND BROUGHT IT TO THE PROPOSED
DEVELOPER.
07:54:39PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YOU HAVE AN INTEREST IN THE OUTCOME OF THIS
TRANSACTION, IS THAT CORRECT?
07:54:43PM >> MY COMPANY DOES.
07:54:45PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MR. CHAIRMAN, MY SUGGESTION WOULD BE TO
ALLOW THE COMMENTS, BUT ALTHOUGH TAKE INTO ACCOUNT KNOWING
THAT THE RELATIONSHIP THAT THE -- THAT THE -- AND YOU CAN --
AND YOU CAN WEIGH THE TESTIMONY ACCORDINGLY.
07:54:58PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ALL RIGHT.
GO AHEAD.
HE WILL THEN STAY WITHIN OUR THREE MINUTES THERE.
KEEP GOING.
07:55:03PM >> SURE.
SO CURRENT OWNER.
JUST SUPPORTING -- I WASN'T INTENDING TO TALK BUT SUPPORTING
THE GENTLEMAN'S COMMENTS THAT HAVE CONCERN WHAT COULD END UP
HERE.
WE HAVE AN OUT-OF-STATE OPPORTUNISTIC INVESTOR.
THEY ARE AGNOSTIC WHAT GOES HERE.
IT WILL LIKELY BE ANOTHER INDUSTRIAL USE.
BEING A RESIDENT FOR 15 YEARS HERE AND DRIVEN UP AND DOWN
THIS CORRIDOR COUNTLESS TIMES TO MONDAY MOW MIDDLE SCHOOL TO
TAKE MY SONS TO SOCCER, I DON'T SEE THE ISSUE WITH THE
TRAFFIC.
I HAVE BEEN DOING IT FOREVER, AND I ALSO AM A SMALL BUSINESS
OWNER AND EMPLOYER.
WE OWN THE BUSINESS AT THE INTERSECTION OF EUCLID AND
MANHATTAN.
MY WIFE OFFERS DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICES TO CHILDREN.
WE OPERATE ON MANHATTAN ALL THE TIME.
THE IMPROVEMENTS WE HAVE SEEN IN OUR CORRIDOR, WE HAVE
WELCOMED.
AND I THINK THIS TYPE OF IMPROVEMENT SOUTH OF GANDY WOULD BE
THE SAME THING.
IT IS GOING TO LIFT THE COMMUNITY.
THE OTHER THING THAT I WOULD SAY, WE EMPLOY 14 LICENSED
PROFESSIONALS AT OUR COMPANY THAT HAVE MASTERS AND DOCTOR
RATS DEGREES AND CAN'T AFFORD TO LIVE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
WHERE THEY WORK.
ATTAINABLE HOUSE.
SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE MAINTAIN OUR BROKERAGE -- 100
EMPLOYEES THAT WORK IN SOUTH TAMPA, ALL OF WHICH ARE LOOKING
IN ST. PETE AND OTHER AREAS BECAUSE THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO
LIVE WHERE THEY WORK.
I THINK THIS PROJECT SUPPORTS A MUCH NEEDED ATTAINABLE
HOUSING AND NEED FOR THE COMMUNITY.
07:56:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
SIR, THE FINAL SPEAKER.
COME ON UP AND STATE YOUR NAME.
07:56:42PM >> I AM AUGUSTIN CINTRON.
I AM NOT RELATED TO THE APPLICANT AT ALL.
MY FAMILY OWNS PROPERTY THE LAST 20 YEARS AT 5600 SOUTH
MANHATTAN AVENUE.
I AM FOR THE PROBABLY.
I BELIEVE IT IS -- FROM WHAT CURRENTLY EXISTS AT THE PROJECT
NOW, A WAREHOUSE OR ABSENTEE OWNER WAREHOUSE.
I THINK IT IS BEAUTIFUL FROM THE RENDERING I SAW.
IT ADDS TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
AND IT GIVES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR 54 FAMILIES TO LIVE IN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH COULD NOT BEFORE.
AND I SEE -- I DON'T SEE ANY NEGATIVES TO TAMPA BY ONLY SEE
POSITIVES WHAT IS CURRENTLY PROPOSED OR WHAT CURRENTLY EXIST
OR WHAT CAN BE BUILT THERE ACCORDING TO ZONING.
07:57:31PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
GO AHEAD, SIR.
07:57:47PM >> I AM FOR THE PROJECT.
BASED ON WHY I AM, BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN -- I HAVE BEEN IN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD FOR 20 YEARS.
AND I THINK A PROJECT LIKE THAT AND WHAT CURRENTLY EXISTS
THERE IS ONLY GOING TO ADD -- ADD TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN A
POSITIVE WAY.
GIVING 54 FAMILIES AN OPPORTUNITY TO OWN IN THAT
NEIGHBORHOOD WHICH COULDN'T POSSIBLY BEEN OWNED BEFORE
BECAUSE PROBABLY NOT A -- BECAUSE A SHORTAGE OF HOUSING IS A
POSITIVE AND I DON'T SEE MUCH OF A NEGATIVE.
07:58:14PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
THAT WILL CONCLUDE PUBLIC COMMENT.
I WOULD LIKE TO ANNOUNCE THAT COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON HAS
GONE HOME SICK, SO YOU WILL HAVE SIX MEMBERS TONIGHT.
COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA IS VIRTUAL.
JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW.
AT THIS TIME, WE WILL HAVE REBUTTAL IF THE APPLICANT HAS
REBUTTAL, YOU HAVE FIVE MINUTES.
COME ON UP.
KAMI CORBITT WITH THE LAW FIRM OF HILL, WARD AND HENDERSON.
I WOULD LIKE STEVE HENRY TO COME UP AND ADDRESS THE TRAFFIC
ISSUES RAISED.
07:58:42PM >> STEVE HENRY, LINKS AND ASSOCIATES.
5023 WEST LAUREL, 53607.
I WANT TO ATTACK THE TRAFFIC ISSUE.
A GRAPHIC OF THE COMPARISON OF WHAT IS PROPOSED SHOWN IN
GREEN VERSES VERSUS THE EXISTING USES AND WHAT CAN BE BUILT
WITH THE CI ZONING.
THE PROPOSED AND EXISTING VIRTUALLY THE SAME.
THIS IS DAILY TRAFFIC AND I WILL GIVE YOU THE A.M. AND P.M.
ALSO.
IF WE LOOK AT A RESTAURANT, GAS CONVENIENCE OR RETAIL,
SIGNIFICANTLY MORE TRAFFIC.
A.M. PEAK HOUR, AGAIN, THE -- THE GREEN IS THE -- IS THE
PROPOSED, BLUE IS THE EXISTING, YELLOW ARE THE OTHER USES.
ABOUT THE SAME FOR WHAT IS EXISTING THERE TODAY VERSES WHAT
WE ARE PROPOSING SIGNIFICANT INCREASE OVER THE COMMERCIAL
USES.
P.M., PEAK HOUR, SAME THING.
EXISTING AND PROPOSED ARE ABOUT THE SAME WITH THE COMMERCIAL
WITH THE SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN TRAFFIC.
THIS FROM THE TRAFFIC STANDPOINT, NOT AN INCREASE IN TRAFFIC
ABOUT THE SAME WHAT IS OUT THERE TODAY.
THANK YOU.
07:59:53PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YES, MA'AM.
07:59:56PM >> KAMI CORBITT.
TO CLARIFY THE IMAGE OF THE GARAGES.
YOU SHOW THESE TWO IMAGES, SOME ARE 18.97 X 20 AND SOME HAVE
THE TWO-CAR DRIVEWAYS.
THESE ALONG THE PERIMETER ARE THE 20 X 20.
THE RECOMMENDATION IS WHEN THERE WERE TRASH CANS TO BE
STORED UP SIDE OF THE GARAGE.
WE ARE NOT DOING THAT HERE.
JUST TO PUT A FINAL POINT ON -- WE TALKED OF WHAT THE
EXISTING ZONING IS.
MAKE IT CLEAR, IT IS ZONED CI THAT ALLOWS A PERSON TO ASK
FOR MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL, TOWN HOME, INDUSTRIAL,
RESTAURANT, WHATEVER.
THE TOWN HOMES COULD HAVE OPINION APPROVED THROUGH A S-1
PROCESS.
AND WE REALLY THOUGHT -- AND TALKED ABOUT THAT AND WAS VERY
THOUGHTFUL.
WE WANT TO MEET WITH THE RESIDENT LEADERS FIRST BEEN WE
FILE.
THEY DID PRESS US ON PARKING.
THEY DID PRESS US ON GARAGE SIZES.
AND PRESSED US ON TREE PRESERVATION.
AND VERY RARELY DO YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR A DEVELOPER
TO COME IN AND VOLUNTARILY SAY WE ARE FOLLOWING BE 60% OF
THE TOTAL ALLOWABLE DENSITY IN THIS AREA AND FOLLOWING
DOUBLE THE PARKING AND WILLING TO DOUBLE THE OPEN SPACE.
AND THERE ARE SPECIAL STORMWATER CRITERIA RULES THAT WERE
ATTACHED TO THIS SITE AS WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER.
AND WE ARE PERFECTLY FINE COMPLYING WITH THAT.
AND THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT THAT IS FOUND CONSISTENT AND
COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR EXISTING COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND YOUR
LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND I DON'T REALLY SEE ANY BASIS FOR A
DENIAL THIS EVENING.
WE ARE HAPPY TO TALK OF SOME OF THE ISSUES SHOULD YOU HAVE
QUESTIONS OF ANYTHING THAT IS PRESENTED, BUT WE HAVE
PROPOSED A PLAN THAT IS CONSISTENT WITH YOUR CODE AND BELOW
WHAT YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ALLOWS.
WITH THAT, I WILL CLOSE.
08:01:47PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
A MOTION TO CLOSE AND SECOND BY
COUNCILWOMAN HENDERSON.
COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
YEAH, BRING IT ON UP.
08:01:55PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
I WANT TO SEE THE GARAGE --
08:01:58PM >> I CAN PUT IT UP.
08:01:59PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YOU WANT A MOTION TO REOPEN?
08:02:05PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
I JUST WANT TO LOOK AT IT.
08:02:07PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ALL RIGHT.
08:02:10PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
THERE WAS A MOTION TO CLOSE AND I
SECONDED IT.
08:02:15PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
THE HEARING IS CLOSED.
WE WILL ASK THE QUESTION.
COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN ASKED TO SPEAK FIRST.
08:02:22PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THIS MAY SURPRISE FOLKS.
THIS IS ONE OF THOSE SITUATIONS WHERE YOU CAN'T SAY NO TO
EVERYTHING.
AND -- AND THIS IS -- THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE HIGH-DENSITY
DEVELOPMENTS THAT WE ARE SEEING, MULTISTORY APARTMENT
COMPLEXES THAT ARE EXTRAORDINARY DENSE AND INTENSE.
YOU KNOW, WHICH IS SIGNIFICANTLY OVERBUILT, SOME OF THESE
AREAS.
THESE ARE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED -- I AM NOT FOND OF THE
AESTHETICS OF THEM, BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT WE ARE HERE TO
DISCUSS.
THEY -- IT -- OBVIOUSLY THESE FOLKS HAVE LISTENED TO
COUNCIL.
BECAUSE THESE DRIVE AISLES AND PRIVATE STREETS ARE WIDER.
THEY -- SO THEY CAN ACCOMMODATE THE VEHICLES AND BACKING UP.
THE GARAGES THAT ARE -- THEY ARE ALMOST 19 WHICH IS -- IN MY
EYE IS SUBSTANDARD, BUT THEY DID ACCOMMODATE WITH DRIVEWAY.
THE PARK ALSO HAD BEEN SUFFICIENT BECAUSE EVEN IF IT IS A
ONE-CAR GARAGE THEY CAN ACCOMMODATE ANOTHER CAR IN THE
DRIVEWAY FOR THE SMALLER ONES.
THEY HAVE ROOM HERE.
YOU WON'T END UP PUTTING PEOPLE -- MY CONCERN WITH THE
GARAGE SIZES, WHEN WE APPROVE SOME OF THESE TANDEM GARAGES
OR UNDERSIZED GARAGES THAT THE REALITY IS PEOPLE WILL BE
PARKED ON STREETS AND ON CURBS AND SIDEWALKS AND BLOCKING
BIKE LANES.
THAT IS NOT WHAT WE ARE GOING TO SEE HERE.
I LIKE THE FACT THAT THE -- THAT THE SIDEWALK INTEGRATION ON
THE TWO ADJOINING STREETS, THAT WE HAVE THESE DOORS FACING
THESE ADJOINING STREETS.
AGAIN, IT IS KIND OF LIKE A MINI LITTLE DEVELOPMENT AND A
FEE-SIMPLE TOWN HOUSE.
SINGLE-FAMILY-OWNED HOUSES.
IT IS KIND OF AN UNIQUE SITUATION.
AGAIN, IT IS NOT -- I AM KIND OF SURPRISED BY THE AMOUNT --
THE FOLKS -- MY GOOD FRIEND IN OPPOSITION TO THIS, BECAUSE
IT KIND -- IT SEEMS LIKE A SMART PROJECT CONSIDERING WHAT
COULD BE DEVELOPED OWN THIS PROPERTY.
I MEAN, I THINK THEY ARE UNDERDEVELOPING THIS PROPERTY.
AND YOU LOOK AT THE -- YOU LOOK AT THE AMOUNT OF CONCRETE
THAT THERE IS NOW WITH THAT BORDEN PROPERTY VERSES WHAT WILL
COME, A LOT MORE GREEN SPACE.
A LOT MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR GREEN SPACE.
YEAH, I MEAN IT -- I JUST -- WE CAN'T BE IN A POSITION TO
SAY NO TO EVERYTHING.
THIS IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS I AM GOING TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF
TAMPA.
08:04:41PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANYBODY ELSE?
COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN, WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO AHEAD AND --
YOU MADE THE LAST MOTION.
08:04:48PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
