5:03:21PM >>THE CLERK:
WE HAVE A PHYSICAL QUORUM.
ALL RIGHT.
THERE IS NO HOUSEKEEPING THIS EVENING, CORRECT?
OKAY.
SO THE AGENDA IS GOING TO BE HOW IT IS.
AT THIS TIME, MAY I GET A MOTION TO OPEN ALL THE PUBLIC
HEARINGS?

WE HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
ALL IN FAVOR?
AYE.
ALL RIGHT, THE FIRST TWO ARE NON-QUASI-JUDICIAL.
WE DO NOT HAVE TO SWEAR ANYBODY IN.
IF WE CAN START WITH ITEM NUMBER 1.
YES, MA'AM, GO AHEAD.
5:03:59PM >>EMILY PHELAN:
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
THE TWO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS BEFORE YOU TONIGHT ARE
ADJACENT TO EACH OTHER, BUT THEY WILL BE TWO SEPARATE ITEMS.
THE FIRST AMENDMENT IS A PRIVATELY INITIATED AMENDMENT.
AND THE SECOND ONE IS A PUBLICLY INITIATED AMENDMENT BY
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
THE FIRST ONE IS TA/CPA 24-19.
IT IS LOCATED AT 706 SOUTH MOODY AVENUE.
THIS IS PRIVATELY INITIATED SMALL SCALE, APPROXIMATELY 0.32
ACRES.
AND THE REQUEST IS TO GO FROM RESIDENTIAL 10 TO COMMUNITY
MIXED USE 35.
IT'S LOCATED IN THE SOUTH TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT IN THE
PARKLAND ESTATES NEIGHBORHOOD.
THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE, WHICH IS OUTLINED IN
PINK.
AND THE BLUE IS THE RELATED ITEM THAT WILL BE THE NEXT PLAN

AMENDMENT.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS CURRENTLY IN OFFICE.
AND IN THE SURROUNDING AREA, THERE IS A MIX OF COMMERCIAL
AND RESIDENTIAL USES.
THE COMMERCIAL USES ARE ALONG SWANN AND HOWARD AVENUE AS
WELL AS MULTIFAMILY BUILDING HERE AND HERE, AND
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED AS YOU MOVE FURTHER SOUTH AND TO THE
WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING AT THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ALONG SOUTH MOODY AVENUE TOWARDS THE
SCHOOL AND THE SUBJECT SITE IS IN BEHIND.
THIS IS LOOKING AT THE NORTHEAST INTERSECTION OF HOWARD AND
SWANN AVENUE.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS TO THE LEFT.
THIS IS LOOKING SOUTHEAST FROM SOUTH MOODY AVENUE.
THE WHITE STRUCTURE HERE IS THE SUBJECT SITE.
THE TAN BUILDING IS WITH THE NEXT PLAN AMENDMENT, ALSO HAS
THE PANERA AND OTHER COMMERCIAL USES.
THE MULTIFAMILY BUILDING THAT WAS POINTED OUT EARLIER IN THE
AERIAL.
THIS IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS OUTLINED HERE IN BLACK AND REPRESENTED
WITH THE RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION, WHICH IS TO THE NORTH,
SOUTH, AND WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
ALONG SWANN AND HOWARD AVENUE IS A MIX OF COMMUNITY MIXED

USE 35 AND COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 35.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS ADJACENT TO -- WITHIN PROXIMITY OF TWO
HART BUS STOPS.
ONE IS LOCATED AT THE CORNER OF HOWARD AND SWANN.
THE OTHER IS LOCATED FURTHER DOWN SWANN.
AND BOTH HOWARD AND SWANN ARE COLLECTOR ROADWAYS.
THIS IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
AGAIN, THE SUBJECT SITE IS HERE OUTLINED IN BLACK.
REPRESENTED WITH THE COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35 DESIGNATION.
UNDER THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL 10, THE SITE CAN BE
CONSIDERED FOR THREE DWELLING UNITS OR JUST OVER 4,800
SQUARE FEET OF NONRESIDENTIAL USES, WHICH WOULD NEED TO MEET
LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
UNDER THE PROPOSED COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35, THE SUBJECT SITE
CAN BE CONSIDERED FOR 11 UNITS OR JUST OVER 27,800 SQUARE
FEET OF RESIDENTIAL OR NONRESIDENTIAL USES.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT WOULD RESULT IN THE POTENTIAL
INTRODUCTION OF MULTIFAMILY AND COMMERCIAL GENERAL USES ON
THE SITE, AND IT WOULD INCREASE THE RESIDENTIAL AND
NONRESIDENTIAL SQUARE FOOTAGE.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
CONSISTENT WITH MULTIPLE ASPECTS OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THE PROPOSED CHANGE WOULD PROMOTE DENSITY SUPPORTIVE OF
TRANSIT AND A MIXTURE OF USES.
AGAIN, IT'S WITHIN PROXIMITY TWO OF HART BUS STOPS.

A PROMOTION OF INFILL DEVELOPMENT ON UNDERUTILIZED LAND AND
PROMOTING HOUSING CHOICES WITHIN PROXIMITY TO EMPLOYMENT,
CIVIC USES AND TRANSIT CORRIDORS.
FINALLY, THE PROPOSED CHANGE WOULD BE COMPATIBLE WITH THE
NEIGHBORHOOD AS IT WOULD PROVIDE A COHESIVE TRANSITION ON
THE SITE.
WITH THAT, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THAT THE
PROPOSED MAP AMENDMENT BE FOUND CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS,
OBJECTIVES, AND POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
5:07:58PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
NO.
ALL RIGHT.
APPLICANT.
YES, MA'AM, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:08:03PM >> ALEX SCHALER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
EMILY DID A GREAT JOB OF TEEING THIS UP.
I THINK THIS AERIAL IS A REALLY COMPELLING PICTURE.
THIS IS ALL -- THE BLUE IS ALL THE NONRESIDENTIAL
DEVELOPMENT, SURROUNDING THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, THAT LITTLE
AREA OUTLINED IN PINK IS THE PROPERTY FOR WHICH WE HAVE THIS
PLAN AMENDMENT FILED.
AS YOU CAN SEE, IT'S COMPLETELY SURROUNDED IN A SEA OF
NONRESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT TODAY.
AGAIN, EXISTING USES, THIS IS AN INTERIOR DESIGN OFFICE

BUILDING RIGHT NOW.
CANDIDLY, THIS IS NOT ACCOMPANIED BY A PD APPLICATION.
WE DON'T HAVE ANY KIND OF IMMINENT REDEVELOPMENT PLAN.
THIS IS A LONGTIME CLIENT AND WE COUNSELED THEM THAT IN THE
FUTURE IF YOU DO WANT TO REDEVELOP THE SITE, R-10 IS NOT
NECESSARILY COMPATIBLE USE WITH THE BUILT PATTERN TODAY.
THIS IS SOMETHING WE'RE DOING PROACTIVELY.
LIKE I SAID, THERE IS NO PLAN FOR REDEVELOPMENT NOW.
THAT OFFICE WILL STAY.
BUT SOMETHING THAT WE'RE CONSIDERING IN THE FUTURE.
SO I THINK THAT THIS REQUEST BOILS DOWN TO A SINGLE
QUESTION, AND THAT IS, DOES THE SINGLE-FAMILY HOME BELONG ON
THIS PARCEL?
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT IS ALLOWED TODAY UNDER R-10.
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED, AGAIN, LIMITED TOWNHOMES.
THIS HAS BEEN A COMMERCIAL BUILDING, AT LEAST SINCE OUR
CLIENT ACQUIRED IT BACK IN 2020.
AND THOUGH IT LOOKS LIKE A HOUSE, IT IS OPERATING AS A
COMMERCIAL BUILDING IN A PARKING LOT.
WE ARE PROPOSING CMU 35, AGAIN NOT DIRECTLY TIED TO AN
INTRODUCTION OF MULTIFAMILY OR AN INCREASE IN DENSITY.
IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT, AGAIN, IS MORE COMPATIBLE WITH
WHAT'S THERE TODAY.
SOME JUSTIFICATION POINTS ON THE SLIDE, THERE ARE A HOST OF
GOALS AND POLICIES IN THE COMP PLAN THAT WE FEEL SUPPORT A

REQUEST LIKE THIS.
THIS IS OUTSIDE OF THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD.
IT'S WITHIN 150 FEET OF A TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDOR.
AGAIN THAT SURROUNDING NONRESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT, WE FEEL
CONFIDENTLY THAT SINGLE-FAMILY WOULD NOT BE COMPATIBLE HERE.
TODAY, IF THIS BUILDING WERE DESTROYED IN SOME KIND OF MAJOR
CASUALTY AND WENT TO REBUILD BEYOND AN EXISTING FOOTPRINT,
WE WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PUT THIS ON THE SITE TODAY.
THIS IS AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE THIS SPECIFIC PARCEL MORE
COMPATIBLE WITH WHAT'S SURROUNDING IT.
AS EMILY MENTIONED, STAFF DID FIND THIS APPLICATION
CONSISTENT, AND WE HAD A UNANIMOUS RECOMMENDATION OF
CONSISTENCY FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION BOARD.
BACK IN FEBRUARY, ONE COMMISSIONER I BELIEVE ACTUALLY SAID I
HAVE BEEN WAITING A REALLY LONG TIME TO SEE THIS COME
FORWARD FOR THIS SPECIFIC PIECE.
WITH THAT, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.
5:11:10PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
IS THERE ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK ON THIS
ITEM, ITEM 1.
5:11:18PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION TO CLOSE.
5:11:19PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER
CLENDENIN.
SECOND FROM MIRANDA.

ALL IN FAVOR?
ANY OPPOSED.

USE ELEMENT, FUTURE LAND USE MAP, FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED

COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35, CMU-35, PROVIDING FOR REPEAL OF ALL
ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
5:11:55PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:

10 A.M. AT OLD CITY HALL, LOCATED AT 315 EAST KENNEDY
BOULEVARD, THIRD FLOOR, TAMPA, FLORIDA, 33602.
MOTION WAS CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
5:12:27PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ITEM NUMBER 2.
YES, MA'AM.
5:12:32PM >>EMILY PHELAN:
TA/CPA 24-20, 701 SOUTH HOWARD AVENUE.
THIS IS INITIATED BY PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.

STAFF SENT A LETTER BACK TO THE PROPERTY OWNERS IN DECEMBER.
THIS IS SMALL SCALE, APPROXIMATELY 1.5 ACRES.
THE REQUEST IS TO GO FROM RESIDENTIAL 10 AND COMMUNITY MIXED
USE 35 TO COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35.
IT IS LOCATED WITHIN THE SOUTH TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT IN
THE PARKLAND ESTATES NEIGHBORHOOD.
THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE, WHICH IS OUTLINED IN
PINK, AND THE BLUE IS THE PREVIOUS PLAN AMENDMENT.
JUST TO GO OVER IT AGAIN, THE COMMERCIAL USES ARE ALONG
SWANN AND HOWARD, ALONG WITH A MIX OF RESIDENTIAL USES AS
WELL.
THIS IS LOOKING AT THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING EAST AT THE SUBJECT SITE, WHICH IS THE TAN
BUILDING.
THE PREVIOUS PLAN AMENDMENT YOU HEARD AND THE MULTIFAMILY IN
THE BACK.
THIS IS LOOKING TO THE NORTHEAST AT THE INTERSECTION OF
SOUTH HOWARD AVENUE AND WEST SWANN AVENUE.
AND THIS IS ON THE LEFT.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ALONG SOUTH MOODY AVENUE, WHICH IS
BEHIND THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING EAST ALONG SOUTH HOWARD AVENUE.
THIS IS ACROSS FROM THE SUBJECT SITE.
AND THAT IS THE MULTIFAMILY BUILDING.
THIS IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.

THE SUBJECT SITE IS HERE.
IT HAS COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35 ON THE EASTERN PORTION, AND ON
THE WESTERN PORTION IS THE RESIDENTIAL 10.
WHILE THIS DOES HAVE TWO SPLIT FLUS, IT ALSO DOES HAVE
MULTIPLE ZONING DISTRICTS.
THE CG COMMERCIAL GENERAL ZONING DISTRICT IS ALONG THE CMU
35 WHICH ENCOMPASSES THE ENTIRE BUILDING.
THIS CORNER HERE IS RESIDENTIAL OFFICE AND THIS SLIVER HERE
IS RESIDENTIAL MULTIFAMILY 24, WHICH IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH
THE RESIDENTIAL 10 FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION.
THIS IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS HERE REPRESENTED WITH THE COMMUNITY
MIXED USE 35 DESIGNATION.
UNDER THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL 10 AND COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35
DESIGNATION, THE SUBJECT SITE CAN BE CONSIDERED FOR 39
DWELLING UNITS OR JUST OVER 95,500 SQUARE FEET.
THE NONRESIDENTIAL USES WITHIN THE RESIDENTIAL 10 ZONING,
RESIDENTIAL 10 FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION WOULD NEED TO
MEET LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
UNDER THE COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35 DESIGNATION, THE SUBJECT
SITE COULD BE CONSIDERED FOR 52 DWELLING UNITS OR JUST OVER
130,000 SQUARE FEET OF RESIDENTIAL OR NONRESIDENTIAL USES.
THIS AMENDMENT WOULD RESULT IN THE POTENTIAL INTRODUCTION OF
MULTIFAMILY AND COMMERCIAL GENERAL USES ON THE RESIDENTIAL
10 PORTION OF THE PARCEL.

PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT CONSISTENT
WITH MULTIPLE ASPECTS OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THE PROPOSED CHANGE WOULD PROMOTE DENSITY SUPPORTIVE OF
TRANSIT AND A MIXTURE OF USES.
THE SITE IS WITHIN PROXIMITY OF TWO HART BUS STOPS.
A PROMOTION OF INFILL DEVELOPMENT ON UNDERUTILIZED LAND AND
PROMOTING HOUSING CHOICES WITHIN PROXIMITY TO EMPLOYMENT
CIVIC USES AND TRANSIT CORRIDORS.
ADDITIONALLY, THE PROPOSED CHANGE WOULD BE COMPATIBLE WITH
THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS IT WOULD PROVIDE A COHESIVE TRANSITION
ON THE SITE AND WOULD ALLOW FOR THE ZONING DISTRICTS TO BE
MORE IN LINE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
WITH THAT, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THAT THE
PROPOSED MAP AMENDMENT BE FOUND CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS,
OBJECTIVES, AND POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
5:16:11PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
NO.

5:26:10PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I CAN ONLY SAY THAT THE ALESSI FAMILY HAS
BEEN IN WEST TAMPA SINCE MOBY DICK WAS A MINNOW.

THEY HAVE ALWAYS DONE EXTRAORDINARY WORK IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
AND ALWAYS KEPT EVERYTHING UP TO DATE, WHATEVER THEY OWN.
YOUR GRANDFATHER WAS A GREAT GUY.
I KNEW YOUR FATHER PERSONALLY.
DOESN'T MEAN THIS IS GREAT OR BAD, BUT -- GREAT PITCHER AT
JESUIT.
YOUR UNCLE.
IT WAS NICE GROWING UP WITH YOUR UNCLE.
5:26:37PM >> APPRECIATE THAT.

5:26:50PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THANK YOU.
MR. MICHELINI, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO ASK.
I DON'T SEE ANY BIKE PARKING.
WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PARKING, WHERE IS THE BIKE PARKING?
IS IT COVERED, SECURE, WELL LIT AND IS IT CLOSE TO THE
ENTRANCE?
5:27:05PM >>STEVE MICHELINI:
I'M SURE WE CAN LOOK AT THAT BETWEEN
FIRST AND SECOND READING AND SEE HOW WE CAN ACCOMMODATE IT.
5:27:10PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE THAT.
WE'RE TRYING TO ENCOURAGE THAT MOVE FORWARD.
WE'RE LOOKING AT PARKING EVERY DAY.

5:27:20PM >>STEVE MICHELINI:
WE TOOK EXTRA MEASURES TO MAKE SURE THE
BUFFERING WAS ADEQUATE AND USING ALL OF THE EXISTING PARKING
SO THAT WE DIDN'T BEGIN TO INTRUDE ANY FURTHER INTO THE
AREAS.
THE EAST AND WEST SIDES AND THE SOUTH SIDES WERE FINE.
BUT THE NORTH SIDE, THAT HAS A VERY LARGE GREENSPACE THAT
STOPS AT THE EXISTING PARKING LOT.
IT ALSO HAS A LAND USE DESIGNATION OF R-10, SO YOU WON'T SEE
THE BUILDING EXTENDING BACK INTO THAT WET ZONE -- INTO THAT
GREENSPACE AREA.
WE'LL LOOK AT COVERED PARKING FOR BICYCLES.
5:27:54PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
OR JUST EVEN BIKE PARKING.
I DIDN'T SEE ANY ON THE SITE PLAN.
APPRECIATE IT.
5:28:00PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:

AMBITIOUS.

WE'RE LOOKING AT MID SEPTEMBER.
THE GENERAL CONTRACTORS WILL TURN OVER THE PROPERTY TO US

SOMETIME IN JULY AND THEN WE'LL GO TO WORK IN MAKING THE
TRANSITION FROM THE LOCATION CURRENTLY TO THE NEW LOCATION.

5:31:34PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NOW THAT YOU BROUGHT THAT UP, THE ALESSIS

ARE THE ONES THAT USED TO MAKE THE BROWN BREAD FOR CAFE
PEPE.
5:31:49PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
I'LL ADD A COUPLE OF THINGS SINCE WE'RE
ON THE ALESSI KICK.
MY MOM'S FAVORITE SFOGLIATELLE ARE FROM YOUR PLACE.
EVERY SUNDAY AFTER CHURCH, THEY WOULD GO TO THE HOWARD
AVENUE LOCATION AND GET BREAD.
EVERY TIME WE DRIVE BY THERE, I'VE GOT TO HERE -- MY
GRANDMOTHER WOULD TELL ME THE STORY AND MY MOTHER.
5:32:09PM >>STEVE MICHELINI:
WE EXPECTED AFTER SENDING OUT NOTICES
THAT INCLUDED FOOD AND BEVERAGE THAT WE WOULD HAVE MORE THAN
TWO PEOPLE SHOW UP.
TWO PEOPLE.
WE HAD A HUGE TABLE FULL OF FOOD.
5:32:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THAT TELLS YOU HOW RESPECTED THE
INSTITUTION IS.
FOLKS KNOW THEY'LL BRING QUALITY TO WHATEVER PROJECT AND
WHATEVER PRODUCT YOU DELIVER.
5:32:37PM >> THE TWO THAT SHOWED UP JUST WANTED TO EAT.
THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
5:32:46PM >> REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR ALL'S NICE COMMENTS.
WE WORK HARD, HOW WE WERE RAISED TO REPRESENT THE FAMILY
NAME AND ALSO REPRESENT THE TAMPA BAY AREA.
THAT'S SOMETHING WE TAKE TO HEART AND WILL ALWAYS DO,
ESPECIALLY WITH THESE GUYS TOO.

DON'T LET IT DIE.
LASTING HUNDRED AND 13 YEARS.

5:38:20PM >>LEO DEBARDELEBEN:
SURE THING.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
IS THERE AN APPLICANT?
DO WE HAVE AN APPLICANT FOR ITEM NUMBER 4?
YES, PLEASE COME ON UP.
5:38:42PM >> MY NAME IS CHRIS WALTERS.
WE'RE A HUSBAND AND WIFE TEAM.
WE'RE KIND OF NEWBIES IN TOWN IN TERMS OF THIS LIMITED
SERVICE RESTAURANT IDEA.

WE'RE CURRENTLY A COFFEE AND WINE BAR WITH A LITTLE BIT OF
BEER.
WE JUST OPENED A FEW WEEKS AGO IN THE NEWER JADE IN NORTH
HYDE PARK COMPLEX.
WE'RE ARGENTINEAN AND ITALIAN FUSION BASED.
WE'RE BRINGING KIND OF COFFEE WITH WINE, MAINLY COFFEE IN
THE MORNING AND KIND OF COME BACK IN THE EVENING TO RELAX
AND HAVE SOME WINE AND SOME BEER WITH US.
WE HOPE TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY.
WE GOT A LOT OF RETURNING CUSTOMERS SO FAR, ESPECIALLY
AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND FOLKS THAT LIVE AT JADE IN NORTH
HYDE PARK.
SO WE'RE LOOKING TO BRING SERVICES TO THE LOCAL NORTH HYDE
PARK AREA.
5:39:44PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
GREAT.
ANY QUESTIONS?
YES, MA'AM.
5:39:46PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SORRY.
I'LL ASK AGAIN.
I DIDN'T SEE ANY BIKE PARKING.
I DIDN'T KNOW IF THERE WAS SOME ON THE INSIDE OF THE PARKING
GARAGE?
5:39:56PM >> RIGHT.
SO I'M NOT GOING TO SAY THAT THERE IS DEDICATED PARKING
INSIDE OF THE PARKING GARAGE.

I'D ACTUALLY HAVE TO TAKE ANOTHER LOOK-SEE AT THAT.
THERE IS LIKE WITH PROTECTED PARKING GARAGE PARKING ON THE
GROUND LEVEL, BUT I'M NOT SURE IF THERE'S ACTUALLY DEDICATED
BIKE PARKING.
THAT'S SOMETHING WE'D HAVE TO LOOK AT.
5:40:19PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THE REASON I'M REALLY TALKING ABOUT THAT IS
YOU ARE RIGHT ON THE PROTECTED BIKE TRACK AND YOU'LL HAVE
CYCLISTS.
I NOTICED IN NORTH HYDE PARK THERE ARE NO BIKE RACKS
ANYWHERE, EVEN THOUGH IT IS PROTECTED BIKE LANE.
IT WILL HELP YOUR BUSINESS TO MAYBE HAVE YOUR LANDLORD LOOK
INTO THAT.
5:40:38PM >> DEFINITELY.
WE HAVE BIKERS, LIKE THREE BIKERS TODAY, AND THEY DIDN'T
KNOW WHERE TO PUT THEIR BIKES.
SO THEY ACTUALLY PARKED THEM ON OUR PATIO.
YEAH, THAT'S SOMETHING TO DEFINITELY BRING UP.
5:40:51PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I APPRECIATE THAT.
5:40:52PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANYTHING ELSE IN YOUR PRESENTATION?
5:40:56PM >> NO.
AGAIN, WE'RE KIND OF NEWBIES, SO WE DIDN'T KNOW WE NEED A
WHOLE PRESENTATION.
I'M A TAMPA NATIVE SINCE '99.
SHE'S ARGENTINEAN BUT BEEN HERE SINCE SHE WAS 12.
WE ARE BOTH TAMPA NATIVES.

ARGENTINEAN FLAIR WITH OUR RESTAURANT COMES FROM HER SIDE.
I'M JUST BORING AND BEEN HERE MY WHOLE LIFE.
5:41:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
TAMPA IS NOT BORING.
5:41:25PM >> NO, NO.
IT'S NOT DEFINITELY.
IN TERMS OF MY ORIGIN STORY AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
5:41:31PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:

I JUST HAD ONE QUESTION FOR STAFF.
JUST SUPER FAST.
YOU ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THE CLOSING HOURS.
THOSE ARE ON THE SITE PLAN, CORRECT?
5:43:09PM >> THEY ARE.

ITEM NUMBER 5.
NOW WE MOVE TO THE REZONING PORTION.
5:43:56PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
AGENDA ITEM 5 IS REZ 25-06.
THIS IS A REQUEST TO REZONE 118 BOSPHOROUS AVENUE FROM RS 60
TO RS 50.
WE'LL START WITH AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND THE
SURROUNDING AREA.
SUBJECT SITE IS OUTLINED IN RED.
IT IS LOCATED ALONG THE WEST SIDE OF BOSPHOROUS AVENUE.
IT IS WITHIN THE GENERAL VICINITY OF EAST DAVIS BOULEVARD TO
THE NORTH.
THE NEW AVENUE TO THE SOUTH AND WEST DAVIS BOULEVARD TO THE
WEST.
THE PARCEL IS DEVELOPED WITH A SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED
DWELLING AS WELL AS A SINGLE-FAMILY SEMI DETACHED DWELLING.
LOOKING AT THE SURROUNDING AREA AND THE SURROUNDING ZONING
TO THE IMMEDIATE NORTH WE HAVE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING.
THIS SITE IS DEVELOPED WITH SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED USES.
TO THE EAST RM 24 ZONING WITH SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED,
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED, AS WELL AS MULTIFAMILY.
TO THE IMMEDIATE SOUTH AND WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, ON THE
SUBJECT BLOCK, WE HAVE RS 60 ZONING.

ADDITIONALLY FURTHER SOUTH OF THE NEW AVENUE AND WEST OF
WEST DAVIS BOULEVARD WE HAVE RS 75 ZONING COMPRISED OF
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED USES.
A SIMILAR REQUEST TO REZONE A PARCEL LOCATED AT 206 CHIPPEWA
AVENUE TWO BLOCKS SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE FROM RS 60 TO RS
50 WAS PETITIONED AND APPROVED IN OCTOBER OF 2024, CREATING
TWO LOTS MEETING THE RS 50 STANDARDS.
THIS IS A SURVEY OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
THE BOUNDARY OF THE PROPERTY IS OUTLINED IN YELLOW.
THE SUBJECT PROPERTY HAS APPROXIMATELY 111 FEET OF STREET
FRONTAGE ALONG BOSPHOROUS AVENUE AND IS COMPRISED OF 12,554
SQUARE FEET IN AREA.
SINCE THIS IS A EUCLIDEAN REZONING, WE DO NOT HAVE
ELEVATIONS TO SHOW OR A SITE PLAN.
FIRST WE HAVE A PHOTO OF THE SINGLE-FAMILY SEMI DETACHED
DWELLING ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
NEXT WE HAVE THE SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED UNIT THAT'S LOCATED
TO THE REAR.
NORTH OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED.
IMMEDIATELY SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
LOOKING EAST, WE HAVE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED AS WELL AS
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED.
WEST OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY ON WEST DAVIS BOULEVARD.
THIS IS LOOKING NORTH ON BOSPHOROUS AVENUE.
LASTLY, WE HAVE LOOKING SOUTH ON BOSPHOROUS AVENUE.

WITH THIS BEING A REZONING FROM RS 60 TO RS 50, WE DO HAVE A
CONFORMING MAP WHICH WAS USED IN STAFF'S ANALYSIS OF THIS
APPLICATION.
MY STAFF REPORT ON PAGES 3 AND 4 INCLUDES A REVIEW --
INCLUDES ANALYSIS, WHICH I WILL GO OVER WITH YOU NOW.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS PART OF THE DAVIS ISLANDS SUBDIVISION,
BAY CIRCLE SECTION, BLOCK 10, LOTS 14 AND 15, WHICH WAS
ORIGINALLY PLATTED IN 1924.
THE AREA OF ANALYSIS INCLUDED 72 PARCELS, 37 PARCELS OR 51%
HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR GREATER AND
35 PARCELS, OR 49 PERCENT, HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH
OF 59.99 FEET OR LESS.
TODAY, THE SUBJECT BLOCK CONTAINS 8 PARCELS, INCLUDING THE
SUBJECT SITE WITH WIDTHS RANGING FROM 50 TO OVER 100 FEET.
EXCLUDING THE SUBJECT SITE, ONE, OR 14%, OF THE PARCELS ON
THE SUBJECT BLOCK HAVE A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR GREATER.
AND 6, OR 86%, ARE 59.99 FEET OR LESS.
THE BLOCK FACE ON BOSPHOROUS OF THE SUBJECT BLOCK, THE BLOCK
FACE ON BOSPHOROUS AVENUE, INCLUDING THE SUBJECT SITE
CONTAINS THREE LOTS WITH WIDTHS RANGING FROM 50 TO OVER 100
FEET.
ONE, OR 33%, OF THE PARCELS HAVE A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR
GREATER AND TWO, OR 67%, HAVE A WIDTH OF 59.99 FEET OR LESS.
THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE SUBJECT BLOCK, AND THIS WOULD BE
ALONG WEST DAVIS BOULEVARD CONTAINS FIVE PARCELS.

ONE OR 20% OF THE PARCELS HAVE A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR
GREATER.
4 OR 80% OF THE PARCELS HAVE WIDTH OF 59.99 FEET OR LESS.
THE BLOCK LOCATED SOUTHEAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, THIS WOULD
BE THIS ONE RIGHT HERE, IS LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF
BOSPHOROUS AVENUE BETWEEN BARBADOS AVENUE AND DANUBE AVENUE
CONTAINING 23 PARCELS.
16 OR 70% HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR
GREATER, 7 OR 30% HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 59.99
FEET OR LESS.
NEXT, JUST TO THE SOUTH OF THE BLOCK THAT WE JUST MENTIONED,
THIS BLOCK IS BOUNDED ON THE NORTH BY BARBADOS AVENUE.
TO THE WEST BY BOSPHOROUS AVENUE.
SO THE SOUTH BY BISCAYNE AVENUE AND TO THE EAST BY CHIPPEWA
AVENUE.
THIS PARTICULAR BLOCK HAS 11 PARCELS.
4 OR 36% HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR
GREATER AND 7 OR 64% HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF
59.99 FEET OR LESS.
STAFF HAS IDENTIFIED IN THE OVERALL STUDY AREA THAT 51% OF
THE PARCELS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR
GREATER AND 49% HAVE A WIDTH OF 59.99 FEET OR LESS.
WHILE THERE ARE A VARIETY OF LOT SIZES WITHIN THE VICINITY
OF THE SUBJECT SITE, STAFF DOES FIND THE REQUEST TO BE
INCONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IN THE

OVERALL STUDY AREA.
I AM AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS.
IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, I WILL YIELD TO PLANNING
COMMISSION STAFF.
5:50:24PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IT SEEMS LIKE A REACH TO EVALUATE THE LOT
SIZE IN THOSE PARCELS FURTHER SOUTH.
WHAT WAS THE QUANTITATIVE, WHAT WAS THE DATA USED TO JUSTIFY
REACHING TO THOSE OUTPARCELS FURTHER SOUTH AS OPPOSED TO NOT
CONSIDERING THE GENERAL PARCELS IN THE ACTUAL NEIGHBORHOOD
TO THE NORTHEAST?
5:50:48PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
WELL, WE GO OUT A CERTAIN DISTANCE.
LOOKING SPECIFICALLY AT THESE BLOCKS TO THE SOUTH, WE LOOKED
AT THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ON THOSE BLOCKS.
AND WE FELT THOSE BEST --
5:51:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WHY CONSIDER THOSE BLOCKS AND NOT THE
BLOCKS TO THE NORTH?
5:51:07PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
WELL, IT HAS TO GO WITH THE
DEVELOPMENT PATTERN WITHIN CLOSER PROXIMITY OF THE SUBJECT
SITE AS WELL AS THE OVERALL DEVELOPMENT PATTERN, THE
DIRECTION OF THOSE LOTS IN RELATION TO THE SUBJECT SITE'S
LOCATION.
5:51:24PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ONE OF THE THINGS ARE NOT LIKE THE OTHER.
5:51:26PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
IS IT BECAUSE IT IS RS 75 OVER THERE?
IS THAT THE REASON?
5:51:33PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
NO, I GET THAT PART ON THE WEST SIDE -- ON

THE WEST SIDE.
I'M CURIOUS, SO WHY AREN'T WE LOOKING AT THE PDs, RS
50s, RM 24.
5:51:46PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
THOSE AREN'T INCLUDED IN STAFF'S
ANALYSIS.
5:51:48PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HOW DO YOU NOT ANALYZE THAT AS FAR AS
CONSISTENCY IN A DEVELOPMENT PATTERN?
I DON'T GET THAT.
IS THAT YOUR RULE?
5:51:56PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
YES.
ACTUALLY, WE REFERENCE IT -- WE ACTUALLY REFERENCE IT IN THE
STAFF REPORT HERE RELATING TO -- THIS IS RELATING TO COMP
PLAN POLICY 9.3.8, SO WE BASE IT OFF OF THAT POLICY.
SO WHEN WE CREATE A CONFORMING MAP, WE'RE JUST LOOKING AT
THE EXISTING PARCELS THAT HAVE THE RS 60 ZONING.
WE'RE EXCLUDING ALL OF THE OTHER ZONED PARCELS AND WE'RE
LOOKING AT --
5:52:30PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
YOU CAN SEE HOW THAT SEEMS CRAZY TO ME
SITTING UP HERE WHEN YOU HAVE ALL THESE PARCELS LITERALLY
NEXT TO IT, MULTIFAMILY PARCELS, ESPECIALLY IF YOU LOOK AT
TRANSITION. THAT SEEMS INSANE TO ME.
THANK YOU.
I APPRECIATE YOUR INPUT.
5:52:44PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
YES, MA'AM.

5:52:57PM >>EMILY PHELAN:
EMILY PHELAN, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT.
DAVIS ISLANDS URBAN VILLAGE AND DAVIS ISLANDS NEIGHBORHOOD
AND EVACUATION ZONE A.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED HERE, REPRESENTED WITH THE
RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION, WHICH IS TO THE SOUTH AND THE
WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
TO THE NORTH AND EAST IS THE RESIDENTIAL 35.
AND FURTHER TO THE WEST AND SOUTH, THE YELLOW IS RESIDENTIAL
6.
THE PROPOSED REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DENSITY
ANTICIPATED UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION.
THE PROPOSED REQUEST WOULD ALLOW FOR TWO LOTS APPROXIMATELY
56 FEET WIDE, CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED LOT PATTERN OF
THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
THE REQUEST IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH THE DENSITY AND POLICIES
OUTLINED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SUPPORTING INFILL
DEVELOPMENT ON UNDERUTILIZED LANDS BY PROMOTING A HIGHER
DENSITY ON AN UNDERUTILIZED SITE.
THE PROPOSED ZONING IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DENSITY
ANTICIPATED UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION AND WOULD
PROVIDE ADDITIONAL HOUSING IN THE DAVIS ISLANDS
NEIGHBORHOOD.
OVERALL, IT WOULD ALLOW FOR DEVELOPMENT THAT IS COMPARABLE
AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE CHARACTER OF THE SURROUNDING USES

AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ANTICIPATED
UNDER RESIDENTIAL 10.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
5:54:12PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
APPLICANT, COME ON UP, SIR.
ALEX RIOS.
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:54:25PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
MY NAME IS ALEX RIOS WITH RIOS ARCHITECTURE, REPRESENTING
THE PROPERTY OWNER OF 118 BOSPHOROUS AVENUE ON DAVIS
ISLANDS.
WE ARE SEEKING APPROVAL FOR EUCLIDEAN REZONING FROM RS 60 TO
RS 50, WHICH WOULD ALLOW FOR THE SUBDIVISION OF THIS
OVERSIZED LOT INTO TWO SINGLE-FAMILY PARCELS.
I BELIEVE IN THIS PROPOSAL BECAUSE OF THE DEVELOPMENT
PATTERN SPECIFICALLY WITHIN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THE
PROPERTY, COMPATIBLE DENSITY, ZONING PRECEDENCE WITHIN THE
BROADER DAVIS ISLANDS AND ALIGNMENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN OBJECTIVES.
THE PROPERTY ITSELF HAS A FRONTAGE OF 111 FEET, WHICH IS
JUST 9 FEET SHY OF BEING ABLE TO SPLIT THIS LOT BY RIGHT.
THE 111 FEET IS RIGHT THERE.
IT HAS A FUTURE LAND USE OF R-10 WHICH WOULD ALLOW UP TO
THREE UNITS ON THE PROPERTY.

RATHER THAT PURSUING A PD REZONING OR PUSHING FOR MAXIMUM
DENSITY, REZONING TO RS 50 REQUIRES TO US COMPLY WITH THE
SAME SETBACKS AND REGULATIONS AS THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING
RS 60 PARCELS AND MAINTAIN A COMPATIBLE LOT FRONTAGE AND
BUILDING FRONTAGE AND MAINTAIN SAME SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED
DEVELOPMENT PATTERN.
HERE ARE THE -- HERE IS THE COMPARISON BETWEEN RS 50 AND RS
60.
SETBACKS ARE ALL THE SAME WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FRONT --
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FRONT SETBACK BEING 20 INSTEAD OF
25.
THE PROPERTY IMMEDIATELY ABUTS A PD REZONING FOR TOWNHOMES
TO THE NORTHEAST.
DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM RM 24 AND RS 60 TO THE SOUTHWEST AND
NORTHEAST.
EXCEPT FOR ONE PARCEL, ALL THE RS 60 PARCELS WITHIN THE LOT
ARE NONCONFORMING TO THE MINIMUM 60-FOOT FRONTAGE
REQUIREMENT.
THIS PATTERN OF NONCONFORMITY AND SMALLER LOT SIZES IS
PARTICULARLY PREVALENT IN THE NORTHERN AND EASTERN PARTS OF
DAVIS ISLANDS AND THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THIS PROPERTY.
HERE YOU SEE A COMPARISON OF THE LOT WIDTHS AND WHICH
PARCELS ARE WITHIN 50 TO 60 FEET IN BLUE AND THEN THE LARGER
PARCELS IN ORANGE.
AN IDENTICAL CASE WAS HEARD FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 206

CHIPPEWA AVENUE LAST YEAR.
THAT IS LOCATED RIGHT HERE.
SUBJECT PARCEL IS HERE.
THERE IS CHIPPEWA.
THEY, TOO, APPLIED FOR EUCLIDEAN REZONING FROM RS 60 TO 50.
STAFF ALSO FOUND IT INCONSISTENT, AND IT WAS APPROVED BY
COUNCIL.
THERE ARE OTHER IDENTICAL CASES ON CHANNEL DRIVE, TWO CASES
ON CHANNEL DRIVE AND ONE ON DANUBE AVENUE ON THE SOUTHEAST
PORTION OF DAVIS ISLAND THAT WERE ALSO APPROVED IN 2019 AND
2020.
THIS PROPERTY IS SITUATED MUCH CLOSER TO THE HIGHER DENSITY
AS IT ABUTS THE PD AND RM 24 ZONING AND THUS IS IN BETTER
ALIGNMENT WITH THE CITY PLANNING OBJECTIVES.
HERE IS THE PARCEL AND HERE IS ANOTHER CLUSTER OF RS 50
ADJACENT TO RM 24.
IN CONCLUSION, COUNCIL, I ONLY BRING FORWARD CASES THAT I
TRULY BELIEVE IN.
I BELIEVE IN THIS CASE BECAUSE THIS REZONING THOUGHTFULLY
BLENDS THE DENSITY OF THE ADJACENT PD AND RM 24 TO THE NORTH
AND THE RS 60 TO THE SOUTH WHILE MAINTAINING -- EXCUSE ME.
WHILE MAINTAINING THE PREDOMINANT LOT SIZE AND DEVELOPMENT
FOOTPRINT WITHIN THE BLOCK AND IMMEDIATE VICINITY.
WE SEEK YOUR APPROVAL.
THANK YOU.

5:58:19PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
YES, SIR, COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN.
5:58:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IS IT DANUBE?
5:58:29PM >> DA-NUBE.
5:58:37PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WHO KNOWS THIS ANSWER?
YOU SAID THAT.
I GO -- I AGREE, MR. RIOS, I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE
QUALITY OF THE PROJECT.
HOPEFULLY YOU'LL BRING A GOOD PROJECT THAT CAPTURES THE
CHARACTER OF DAVIS ISLANDS.
5:58:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WISH TO SPEAK ON ITEM 5?
YES, MA'AM, COME ON UP.
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
5:59:05PM >> MY NAME IS HAILEY DALTON.
HI, EVERYONE.
I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS REZONING TONIGHT.
I AM A STUDENT FOR THE PUBLIC POLICY PROGRAM AT SBC.
AS PART OF THE PROGRAM WE HAVE TO EXERCISE OUR RIGHT TO
PARTICIPATE IN A PUBLIC HEARING.
SO THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING TO DO TODAY.
I'VE PREPARED A WRITTEN SPEECH THAT I'M GOING TO SPEAK.
IT SHOULD BE A LITTLE LESS THAN THREE MINUTES.
5:59:36PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
OKAY.

GO AHEAD.
5:59:38PM >> SO THIS IS A REZONING CASE FOR A SITE ON DAVIS ISLAND
CURRENTLY DEVELOPED WITH A SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED DWELLING
AND A SINGLE-FAMILY SEMI DETACHED DWELLING.
THE STAFF REPORT IT STATES THAT THE CITY COUNCIL MUST
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICY WHEN
DECIDING THE OUTCOME OF THE SUBJECT REQUEST.
POLICY 9.3.8, IT IS THE INTENT OF THE CITY THAT THE NEW
RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT SHALL BE MINIMALLY
DISRUPTIVE TO ADJACENT AREAS.
TO ACHIEVE THIS, THE CITY SHALL ASSESS THE POTENTIAL
POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF THE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
PROJECTS ON THE PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT PATTERN AND THE
CHARACTER OF THE SURROUNDING AREA AND REQUIRE MITIGATION OF
NEGATIVE OFF-SITE IMPACTS.
I PERSONALLY DO NOT BELIEVE THIS WILL BE VERY DISRUPTIVE AT
ALL TO THE ADJACENT AREAS AND THAT THERE ARE POSITIVE
IMPACTS TO THE REZONING.
SOME OF THESE POSITIVE IMPACTS INCLUDE THE PROPERTY OWNER
GETTING TO DEVELOP HIS PROPERTY HOW HE OR SHE WISHES IF THE
REZONING IS APPROVED.
AND THE PROPOSED REZONING WILL NOT BE VERY DISRUPTIVE TO THE
SURROUNDING AREA AS IT IS SIMILAR TO OTHER LOW DENSITY
SINGLE-FAMILY DISTRICTS, BUT WITH SMALLER LOT SIZE
REQUIREMENTS.

ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A RECENT REZONING VERY SIMILAR TO
THIS ONE TWO BLOCKS SOUTH OF THIS SITE ON CHIPPEWA AVENUE
THAT WAS ALSO APPROVED.
THAT REZONING WAS ALSO RS 60 TO RS 50.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE R-10 FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION,
WHICH MEANS AS I UNDERSTAND IT THAT THE LOT CAN ONLY BE
CONSIDERED FOR A MAXIMUM OF TWO RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNITS.
AGAIN, THE PROPERTY WON'T BE ABLE TO CHANGE MUCH FROM ITS
CURRENT STATE.
SINCE THIS IS ON DAVIS ISLAND WHICH IS DEFINITELY A COASTAL
HIGH HAZARD AREA AND IN AN EVACUATION ZONE, IT IS GOOD THAT
THIS REZONING REQUEST IS NOT TRYING TO INCREASE DENSITY TOO
MUCH, SO IT WON'T -- IT SHOULD NOT ADD ANY EXTRA DEMAND ON
SHELTER SPACE.
LASTLY, I THINK THIS REZONING IS IN LINE WITH THE GOALS OF
THE CITY OF TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, INCLUDING LU POLICY
5.1.2, RECOGNIZE THAT URBAN VILLAGES ARE A VERY LIVABLE AND
SUSTAINABLE FORM OF DEVELOPMENT, CONTINUE TO EMPHASIZE THE
COMPACT AND MIXED USE NATURE OF THESE VILLAGES, LOOK FOR
WAYS TO MAKE IT EASIER TO CREATE THIS TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT
PATTERN.
LU OBJECTIVE 9.2, ENSURE ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF LAND PLANNED FOR
RESIDENTIAL PURPOSES TO ACCOMMODATE -- THAT'S ABOUT IT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
6:02:14PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
IF YOU NEED TEN MORE SECONDS.

6:02:17PM >> OKAY.
I HAD ONE MORE.
LU OBJECTIVE 9.3, COMPATIBLE DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT
TO SUSTAIN STABLE NEIGHBORHOODS AND ENSURE THE SOCIAL AND
ECONOMIC HEALTH OF THE CITY.
THAT'S ALL.
THANK YOU.
6:02:29PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THAT WAS VERY GOOD.
ANYBODY ELSE?

AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 6 IS REZ 25-14.
THIS IS A REQUEST TO REZONE 8414 NORTH 18th STREET FROM
RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY 50 TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FOR
RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED USES.
THE AERIAL SHOWS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY OUTLINED IN RED.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED AT THE INTERSECTION OF NORTH
18th STREET AND EAST FAIRBANKS STREET.
THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IS SIMILAR TO THE NORTH,
EAST, AND WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
IT'S COMPRISED OF SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED DWELLINGS WITH RS
50 ZONING.

TO THE IMMEDIATE SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE, WE DO HAVE A
PROPERTY THAT IS ZONED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT.
THAT SITE IS CONSTRUCTED WITH A SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED
DWELLING AND, OF COURSE, FARTHER NORTH ON NORTH 18th
STREET WE DO HAVE SOME COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE CI AND
INDUSTRIAL GENERAL ZONING, IG, WITH BOTH COMMERCIAL AND
WAREHOUSE USES PRESENT MUCH FURTHER NORTH THAN THE SUBJECT
SITE.
NEXT WE HAVE A SITE PLAN PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT.
THE SITE IS CURRENTLY VACANT.
APPLICANT IS PROPOSING THE CONSTRUCTION OF TWO SINGLE-FAMILY
DETACHED USES.
WE HAVE PARCELS A AND PARCEL B.
PARCEL A IS APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET IN WIDTH.
WITH FRONTAGE ON BOTH EAST FAIRBANKS STREET AND NORTH 18th
STREET.
THE SUBJECT -- OR THE PROPOSED BUILDING ON PARCEL A IS
APPROXIMATELY 2,135 SQUARE FEET.
IT ALSO PROVIDES VEHICULAR ACCESS OFF OF EAST FAIRBANKS
STREET.
PARCEL B TO THE SOUTH IS APPROXIMATELY 45 FEET IN WIDTH.
IT ALSO PROPOSES A ONE-STORY DWELLING WITH APPROXIMATELY --
COMPRISED OF APPROXIMATELY 1,919 SQUARE FEET.
THERE IS A ONE-CAR GARAGE PROPOSED WITH THIS SUBJECT SITE
WITH VEHICULAR ACCESS PROVIDED OFF OF NORTH 18th STREET.

BOTH DWELLINGS HAVE FRONT DOORS WHICH FACE NORTH 18th
STREET WITH PEDESTRIAN ACCESS TO THE ADJACENT RIGHT-OF-WAY
PROVIDED BY A SIDEWALK ON PARCEL A AND BY A DRIVEWAY ON
PARCEL B.
A SIDEWALK IS PROPOSED TO RUN THE FULL LENGTH OF PARCEL A
ONLY ALONG EAST FAIRBANKS STREET.
BUT NO SIDEWALK IS PROPOSED FOR INSTALLATION ALONG NORTH
18th STREET DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF EXISTING TREES, BOTH
ADJACENT TO AND WITHIN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.
I DO HAVE SOME ELEVATIONS TO SHOW.
FIRST, WE HAVE THE ELEVATIONS FOR PARCEL A.
PARCEL A IS PROPOSED WITH A MAXIMUM HEIGHT FOR THIS
ONE-STORY DWELLING AT 18 FEET, 8 INCHES.
WE HAVE THE EAST ELEVATION, THE WEST, NORTH, AND SOUTH.
NEXT WE HAVE THE PROPOSED ELEVATION FOR PARCEL B.
AGAIN, ONE STORY DWELLING, MAXIMUM HEIGHT IS 17 FEET, 10
INCHES.
THERE IS A ONE-CAR GARAGE PROPOSED ON THIS PARTICULAR
DWELLING.
THERE ARE NO WAIVERS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS APPLICATION.
WE DO HAVE SOME PHOTOS TO SHOW OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND
SURROUNDING AREA.
FIRST, WE HAVE THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE.
IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT IT FROM NORTH 18th STREET.

NEXT, WE HAVE ANOTHER PHOTO OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS OFF OF EAST FAIRBANKS STREET.
THIS IS LOOKING NORTH FROM THE SUBJECT SITE.
LOOKING SOUTH, THIS IS THE PROPERTY ZONED PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT.
LOOKING EAST ACROSS NORTH 18th STREET.
THIS IS WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
LOCATED OFF NORTH ELMERS STREET.
NEXT WE HAVE A PHOTO SHOWING, YOU'RE LOOKING SOUTH DOWN
NORTH 18th STREET.
LASTLY AT THAT INTERSECTION THERE, THIS WOULD BE LOOKING
WEST ON EAST FAIRBANKS STREET.
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION AND COMPLIANCE STAFF HAVE REVIEWED
THE APPLICATION.
WE FIND THE REQUEST TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF TAMPA
LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
SHOULD IT BE THE PLEASURE OF CITY COUNCIL TO APPROVE THIS
APPLICATION, MODIFICATIONS TO THE SITE PLAN AS SHOWN ON THE
SUBMITTED REVISION SHEET MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN FIRST AND
SECOND READING.
I'M AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS.
IF NOT, I WILL GLADLY YIELD OVER TO PLANNING COMMISSION
STAFF.
6:08:35PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
I SEE NONE.

YES, MA'AM.
COME ON UP.
6:08:41PM >>EMILY PHELAN:
EMILY PHELAN, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE UNIVERSITY PLANNING DISTRICT IN THE
SULPHUR SPRINGS NEIGHBORHOOD.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED HERE IN PURPLE AND IT'S
SURROUNDED BY THE RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION WHICH DOES
ALLOW FOR LOW DENSITY NEIGHBORHOOD USES.
THE PROPOSED REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DENSITY
ANTICIPATED UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION, LOT WIDTHS
RANGE FROM 45 TO 100 FEET ON THIS PORTION OF NORTH 18th
STREET.
THE PROPOSED LOT WIDTHS OF 45 AND 50 FEET WOULD BE WITHIN
THE EXISTING STREET BLOCK AND LOT CONFIGURATION OF THE
NEIGHBORHOOD.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF FOUND NO ADVERSE IMPACTS TO THE
SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD.
THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROMOTES COMPATIBLE DEVELOPMENT AND
THE SITE WOULD PROVIDE INFILL HOUSING ON UNDERUTILIZED
PARCEL WITHIN THE SULPHUR SPRINGS NEIGHBORHOOD.
OVERALL, THE PROPOSED PD WOULD ALLOW FOR DEVELOPMENT THAT IS
COMPARABLE AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE CHARACTER OF THE
SURROUNDING USES AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT
PATTERN UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL 10 DESIGNATION.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION IF YOU GUYS HAVE ANY

QUESTIONS.
6:09:41PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS?
I SEE NONE.
IS THERE AN APPLICANT FOR ITEM 6?
YES, SIR.
COME ON UP.
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME.
6:09:48PM >> GOOD EVENING.
MY NAME IS ALI MANSOUR.
I AM THE APPLICANT AND OWNER FOR THIS APPLICATION.
I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE MUCH OF YOUR TIME BECAUSE I DON'T WANT
TO REPEAT WHAT THEY JUST SAID.
BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION THAT THIS PROPERTY THAT HAD THE
HOUSE THAT WAS BUILT IN 1960, HAD LIKE A LOT OF -- SEVERAL
CODE ENFORCEMENT VIOLATIONS AND LOT OF JUDGMENTS DUE TO
OUTSTANDING FINES.
I CLEARED THE PROPERTY.
DEMOLISHED THE HOUSE.
WE'RE TRYING TO PROTECT THE SITE BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE
DUMPING THEIR TRASH OVER THERE.
WE ARE PROPOSING TO BUILD TWO BEAUTIFUL SINGLE STORY HOUSES
THAT I BELIEVE IS GOING TO ADD VALUE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
WE ARE NOT REQUESTING ANY WAIVERS AND THE PROPOSED
DEVELOPMENT WOULD MEET WITH ALL THE PLANNING DISTRICT FOR
THE SULPHUR SPRINGS NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE THIS LOT IS LOCATED.

WE ARE GOING TO BE ABIDING BY ALL THE SETBACKS, ALL THE
REQUIREMENTS FROM THAT.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
6:10:48PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?
I SEE NONE.
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WISH TO SPEAK?

6:11:51PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.
THAT CONCLUDES OUR AGENDA.
COUNCILMAN CARLSON, DO YOU HAVE NEW BUSINESS?
COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK?
6:11:58PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YES.
LAST WEEK, I ASKED TO ADD LANGUAGE TO THE JULY 2024 TEXT
AMENDMENT CYCLE.
THEY SAID THAT THE TEXT AMENDMENTS ARE NORMALLY SCHEDULED
FOR CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP SESSION AND CITY COUNCIL VOTES TO
TRANSMIT THE AMENDMENTS TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
BUT RIGHT NOW, OUR NEXT AVAILABLE WORKSHOP WOULD BE MAY 22.
WE HAVE A LOT OF STUFF ON THAT CALENDAR.
SO THEY RECOMMEND -- SO THE JUNE 22 -- SORRY, THE MAY 22
WORKSHOP, IF EVERYBODY COULD LOOK AT THAT, BECAUSE THEIR
RECOMMENDATION IS TO HAVE A SEPARATE MEETING AFTER OUR CRA
MEETING AT 1:30 ON JUNE 12.
I FIGURED THAT WE COULD FIGURE OUT A WAY TO FIT THIS INTO
THE WORKSHOP SCHEDULE INSTEAD.
6:12:53PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IT'S TIMELY BECAUSE I AM GOING TO MOTION
TO REMOVE ITEM 1 AND CHANGE IT TO A QUARTERLY REPORT.

I MOTION TO REMOVE ITEM 1 FROM MAY 22 WORKSHOP.
6:13:02PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YOU MIGHT WANT TO EXPLAIN WHICH ONE IT IS.
6:13:06PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ITEM 1 IS ABOUT THE STREETCAR RAIL
EXTENSION.
I'LL MOVE THAT TO A QUARTERLY REPORT.
6:13:12PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE HAVE A MOTION AND SECOND FROM COUNCIL
MEMBER HENDERSON.
ALL IN FAVOR?
AYE.
WE'LL REPLACE IT WITH YOUR MOTION.
6:13:21PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I DON'T THINK I HAVE TO CHANGE ANYTHING AT
ALL, BUT -- SO WHAT I'LL SAY IS I WILL SET THE JULY 2024
TEXT AMENDMENT CYCLE TO COME TO COUNCIL ON THE MAY 22, 2025
WORKSHOP.
6:13:49PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE HAVE A MOTION.
SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
ALL IN FAVOR?
AYE.
ANY OPPOSED?
ANYTHING ELSE?
6:13:56PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I WANT TO MENTION THAT FOR THAT WORKSHOP, MY
ITEMS ARE ABOUT STORMWATER.
THEY ARE TECHNICALLY BOTH ON STORMWATER.
SO IT'S REALLY ONE ITEM.
THEY JUST HAPPEN TO BE SEPARATE MOTIONS.

6:14:09PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
6:14:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
BEFORE I MAKE THIS ONE MOTION, IT'S
SOMETHING I REFERRED TO.
DOES SOMEBODY ELSE HAVE A BETTER IDEA?
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER TODAY, UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT --
I KNOW YOU SAID THERE WAS A GIS MAP.
MAYBE JUST A WRITTEN REPORT ON THE IMPACT OF THE HURRICANES,
WHAT HOUSES, BREAK IT DOWN BY NEIGHBORHOODS.
6:14:38PM >>BILL CARLSON:
YOU COULD CALL THE STORMWATER DEPARTMENT,
BUT I THINK THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT THE ACTUAL MAPS TO GET OUT
FOR MAYBE CONFIDENTIALITY REASONS.
6:14:48PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HOW ABOUT I SHOOT FOR THIS?
I MOTION THAT STAFF PROVIDE A WRITTEN REPORT AT THE JUNE
26th MEETING, DETAILING THE IMPACT HURRICANES HELENE AND
MILTON HAD ON THE CITY OF TAMPA, THE HOUSES BY NEIGHBORHOOD
THAT WERE DECLARED UNINHABITABLE OR DESTROYED BASED ON FEMA
STANDARDS AND HOW MANY HOMES WERE UNINSURED BASED ON
NEIGHBORHOODS.
6:15:16PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE HAVE A MOTION AND SECOND FROM COUNCIL
MEMBER CARLSON.
YES, MA'AM.
6:15:19PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
WHAT I MIGHT RECOMMEND IS HOLDING THAT UNTIL
NEXT WEEK AND TALKING TO THEM AND FINDING OUT LIKE WHAT YOUR
MOTION, THE NAME OF THE MOTION.
LIKE WHAT YOU CAN REALLY FIND OUT AND WHAT WOULD BE, LIKE

HOW YOU CAN DISTILL IT INTO --
6:15:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I CAN HOLD THAT UNTIL NEXT WEEK.
6:15:37PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THAT IS THE ONLY THING I'M THINKING.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE GET THE RIGHT INFORMATION.
IF YOU ASK THEM --
6:15:42PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I WITHDRAW THAT AND EXPECT TO HEAR AGAIN
BASED ON STAFF CONVERSATION -- CONVERSATIONS WITH STAFF.
ON THE OTHER ISSUE, WHY I REMOVED THAT WORKSHOP SESSION, I'M
TRYING TO BE EMPATHETIC WITH WORKLOAD OF STAFF.
I THINK THEY ARE CRYING UNCLE BECAUSE OF THE WORKLOADS AND
THINGS WE'VE BEEN PUTTING ON THEM.
I'M TRYING TO MOVE THINGS FORWARD AND NOT NECESSARILY GUNK
IT DOWN IN ADMINISTRATIVE BS.
SO WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO IS START ESTABLISHING A QUARTERLY
REPORT FROM MOBILITY ON THE PROGRESS OF THE EXTENSION OF THE
STREETCAR TO PALM AVENUE.
THAT REPORT SHOULD INCLUDE CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS, CONTRACT
PROGRESS, THE PROGRESS BEING MADE IN ANY LAND ACQUISITION
THAT IS REQUIRED, THE TAXATION DISTRICT AND THE FINANCING.
AND I WOULD LIKE THAT TO BEGIN ON JULY 17.
6:16:40PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE HAVE A MOTION AND SECOND FROM COUNCIL
MEMBER VIERA.
ALL IN FAVOR?
AYE.
ANY OPPOSED?

COUNCIL MEMBER HENDERSON.
6:16:46PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
THANK YOU SO MUCH, CHAIR.
I WOULD LIKE THE CHIEF OF STAFF TO PROVIDE CITY COUNCIL WITH
A REPORT ON AN EXPLANATION REGARDING THE STATUS OF THE
BENCHES LOCATED BY THE HART BUS AREA.
THEY ARE STILL REMOVED AND ARE UNHOUSED.
FOLKS ARE SITTING ON THE GROUND NEXT TO THE BENCHES.
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE STATUS OF WHY THE BENCHES ARE THAT
WAY AND THE CONDITION, IF THERE ARE ANY PLANS TO RETURN
THOSE BACK TO THE PROPER PLACE.
ANY EXPLANATION, BUT I WOULD LIKE IT IN WRITING SO IT IS A
PUBLIC RECORD.
6:17:19PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SECOND BUT WHERE?
6:17:21PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
RIGHT ACROSS FROM MARION STREET BUS
STATION.
6:17:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THOSE BELONG TO US OR BELONG TO HART?
6:17:30PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
THEY ARE ON CITY PROPERTY, ON SIDEWALKS.
ACROSS THE STREET.
IF HE CAN WRITE THAT IN HIS MEMO THAT THEY ARE NOT OURS.
6:17:39PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND FROM
COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK.
ALL IN FAVOR?
DID YOU NEED A DATE ON THAT?
6:17:46PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
MAY 1st.
6:17:49PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THAT IS A ONE-WEEK MOTION.

6:17:51PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
I KNOW.
BUT IT IS AN EXPLANATION.
I DON'T THINK IT WILL TAKE A LOT OF RESEARCH FOR HIM TO FIND
OUT.
IS THERE A RULE HE CAN'T DO IT IN A WEEK?
6:18:02PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
NO, THERE IS NO RULE.
6:18:03PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:

REALLY NICE YOUNG MAN, WE SAW HIM THIS MORNING.
GENTLEMAN I STEPPED OUTSIDE TO SPEAK WITH.
HE IS PART -- ORIGINALLY STARTED WITH ALL ABILITIES
INTERNSHIP HERE.
NOW HE HAS A CONTRACT WITH THE CITY OF TAMPA.
HE WANTED TO BRIEF CITY COUNCIL ON AN IDEA THAT HE'S REALLY
PASSIONATE ABOUT.
HE MET WITH ME THIS MORNING.

IT IS A CARD THAT PEOPLE WITH AUTISM COULD HAVE TO GIVE TO
POLICE OFFICERS WHEN THEY ARE PULLED OVER.
SO I WANTED TO HAVE MS. RAQUEL PANCHO AND ERIC KAISER TO
COME TO TAMPA CITY COUNCIL AS PART OF A STAFF REPORT, JULY
31st, PROBABLY TAKE FIVE OR TEN MINUTES FOR THEM TO SPEAK
ON THEIR PROPOSAL AND HOW WE CAN WORK WITH PLANT CITY,

COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
ALL IN FAVOR?
6:19:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:

ENDED WELL.
6:19:21PM >>LUIS VIERA:
ERIC HAS BEEN CALLING ME AND EVERYTHING TO TRY
TO MEET, HEY, LET'S DO IT THIS THURSDAY ON CITY COUNCIL,

TWO OTHER QUICK ONES, IF I MAY.
I WANT A WRITTEN REPORT, I WAS OUT AT EASTON PARK AND ASKED
ABOUT, YOU ALL REMEMBER WE HAD DONE A REZONING THAT WOULD
POTENTIALLY ALLOW FOR A CUT-THRU FROM MORRIS BRIDGE ROAD FOR
TAMPA FIRE RESCUE TO CAN THEY INTO K-BAR RANCH, SHOULD
SHORTEN RESPONSE TIMES.
I WANT A WRITTEN REPORT ON MAY 15, JUST ON THE STATUS OF

6:20:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
MOTION AND SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER
HURTAK.
ALL IN FAVOR?
ANY OPPOSED?
6:20:58PM >>LUIS VIERA:
LASTLY, SOME OF YOU MAY KNOW TRAINING CHIEF
DAVID DITTMAN OF TAMPA FIRE RESCUE.
HE IS UNFORTUNATELY LEAVING US.
CHIEF DITTMAN, I HAVE KNOWN HIM A NUMBER OF YEARS.
HIS BROTHER-IN-LAW WAS MY SON'S CUB SCOUT LEADER AND A

REALLY NICE GUY, DAVID SWITZER.
I REMEMBER GOING TO TAMPA FIRE RESCUE WHEN MY SON WAS
YOUNGER WITH CUB SCOUTS.
WE'RE REALLY GOING TO MISCHIEF DITTMAN, WHO IS A REALLY NICE
GENTLEMAN.
I WANT TO GIVE HIM A COMMENDATION.
I WAS GOING TO DO IT ON MAY 1st BEFORE CITY COUNCIL AT
8:15.
WE'RE GOING TO SEND OUT A MEMO TO EVERYBODY.
I WANTED TO MOTION FOR TWO THINGS.
NUMBER ONE, A COMMENDATION FOR TRAINING DIVISION CHIEF
DITTMAN FOR MANY YEARS OF SERVICE TO TAMPA AND ALSO DO ONE,
DAVID WAS VERY CLOSE TO HIS FATHER, RETIRED CAPTAIN RICHARD
DITTMAN WHO PASSED ON IN 2018 AFTER MANY YEARS OF SERVICE.
SOME OF YOU ALL MAY REMEMBER HIM FROM PANCREATIC CANCER.
HE PASSED ON SEVEN YEARS AGO.
TO GIVE A COMMENDATION AS WELL IN HIS NAME TO DIVISION CHIEF
DITTMAN AND EVERYBODY IS OBVIOUSLY INVITED TO COME.
6:22:08PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:

SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN.
ALL IN FAVOR?
AYE.
ANY OPPOSED?
COUNCIL MEMBER HENDERSON, YOU HAD SOMETHING ELSE.
6:22:17PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
THANK YOU, CHAIR.

FOR CLARIFICATION, WE TALKED ABOUT THOSE BENCHES, I
MENTIONED IT LIKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, SO
I THINK IT WILL BE OKAY FOR MAY 1st.
THE NEW BUSINESS IS SOMETHING BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION.
BEA PARKS IN HOUSING WANTS US TO KNOW AND THE PUBLIC TO KNOW
THERE HAVE BEEN HOMEOWNER SCAMS GOING OUT, TAKING PLACE IN
THE CITY OF TAMPA.
CRA IS ASKING OUR CONSTITUENTS TO BE VERY CAREFUL WITH
ANYONE WANTING TO COME INTO THEIR HOMES, ESPECIALLY SAYING
THEY ARE WITH THE CITY AND TARGETING PARTICULARLY SENIORS
REGARDING HOME CRA MATTERS.
WE'RE ENCOURAGING FOLKS TO ASK FOR TWO FORMS OF
IDENTIFICATION BECAUSE THAT'S BEING PHASED IN.
AND WE'RE SENDING OUT INSPECTORS TO CHECK ON THIS.
THERE ARE PEOPLE ALSO REPRESENTING THEMSELVES BY INDICATING
THAT THEY CAN CONSULT BASED ON FEES FOR EVEN BUSINESSES WHO
ARE SEEKING SOME CRA RESOURCES TO ENHANCE THEIR BUSINESS
ESTABLISHMENTS.
I JUST WANT TO PUT IT OUT THERE THAT WE ARE AWARE OF THIS
AND WE ARE TRYING TO TAKE EVERY MEASURE POSSIBLE TO BE
CAREFUL WITH OUR COMMUNITY.
SO STOP TRYING TO SCAM PEOPLE.
6:23:42PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
IS THAT A MOTION?
6:23:43PM >>GWEN HENDERSON:
NO.
IT IS AN ANNOUNCEMENT.

6:23:45PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
