5:06:49PM >> GOOD EVENING, MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL.
JEFF McKITTRICK, HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
DIRECTOR.
I'M HERE TONIGHT TO PRESENT ON OUR ANNUAL ACTION PLAN.
SHOULD HAVE A PowerPoint.
I ALSO WANTED TO SHARE OUR CONDOLENCES WITH YOU AS WELL.
I WAS ABLE TO WATCH THIS MORNING'S TRIBUTE, AND IT WAS VERY
MOVING.
THE CITY, AS YOU KNOW, RECEIVES FUNDING FROM THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT THROUGH HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT ON A YEARLY
BASIS.
AS SUCH, WE ARE REQUIRED TO PRODUCE AN ANNUAL ACTION PLAN,
AND THIS OUTLINES OUR SOURCES OF THE FUNDING AS WELL AS OUR
PRIORITIES.

THIS WILL BE FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2026 AND PROGRAM ACTION
YEAR 2025.
WE HAVE A REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS THAT GO OUT.
WE WILL DO A TIMELINE AND THEN A DRAFT OF THE PROPOSALS.
WE TAKE PUBLIC INPUT AND WE ALSO HAVE A 30-DAY PUBLIC
COMMENT PERIOD.
THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN PROVIDES A SUMMARY OF THE ACTIONS AND
ACTIVITIES THAT WILL BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THIS FUNDING, EITHER
DIRECTLY BY THE CITY OR THROUGH A SUBRECIPIENT.
THEY MUST BE IN COMPLIANCE AND FOLLOW THE FIVE-YEAR COMP
PLAN.
WE ARE IN YEAR FOUR OF THE CON PLAN.
NEXT YEAR WE'LL RE-UP THE CON PLAN.
THAT WILL BE AN EXTENSIVE PROCESS WITH PUBLIC INPUT AS WELL.
THE ACTIVITIES IDENTIFIED IN THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR
FUNDING ARE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT OR CDBG,
EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS GRANT, ESG, HOME, AND THE HOUSING
OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS WITH HIV OR AIDS, OR THE HOPWA
PROGRAM.
CDBG ALLOCATES FUNDING GRANTS TO LARGER CITIES TO CARRY OUT
ACTIVITIES TO BENEFIT LOW AND MODERATE INCOME FOLKS AS WELL
AS LOW AND MODERATE INCOME AREAS.
SOME OF THE PRIORITIES ARE SUITABLE HOUSING, ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT, OPPORTUNITIES TO EXPAND HOUSING AS WELL AND
POSSIBLY INFRASTRUCTURE.

THE EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS GRANT PROVIDES FUNDING FOR HOMELESS
SERVICES, HOMELESS PREVENTION, STREET OUTREACH, RAPID
REHOUSING AS WELL AS THE HMIS SYSTEM, WHICH MANAGES THE
HOMELESS DATA.
SYSTEM FOR THE AREA.
THE HOPWA PROGRAM PROVIDES FUNDING FOR FOLKS THAT ARE EITHER
DIAGNOSED WITH HIV OR AIDS.
IT IS THE ONLY FEDERAL PROGRAM ALLOCATED TO THIS PARTICULAR
POPULATION.
AND WE DO THIS TO PROVIDE TENANT-BASED RENTAL ASSISTANCE AND
HELP FOLKS WITH A PORTION OF THEIR RENT.
IT OPERATES VERY SIMILAR TO A HOUSING AUTHORITY'S VOUCHER
PROGRAM.
THE HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM FUNDS A WIDE RANGE
OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING ACTIVITIES.
SO THAT CAN INCLUDE LAND ACQUISITION, INFRASTRUCTURE,
CONSTRUCTION OF NEW AS WELL AS REHABBING UNITS.
IT ALSO CAN PROVIDE TENANT-BASED RENTAL ASSISTANCE.
SO SOME OF THE PRIORITY NEEDS WE KNOW ARE NEW CONSTRUCTION,
HOME AND CDBG FUNDING CAN BE USED FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION, IS
SITE IMPROVEMENTS, ACQUISITION, AND REHAB OF EXISTING SITES
FOR HOUSING.
OUR SUPPORTIVE HOUSING OPTIONS ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE FOLKS
THAT ARE IN NEED OF HIGHER LEVEL OF SERVICES.
AND OFTENTIMES THAT CAN BE FOLKS THAT ARE TRANSITIONING OUT

OF JAIL OR PRISON.
THAT CAN BE FOLKS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS OR SUBSTANCE ABUSE
ADDICTIONS.
SO THOSE PROGRAMS ARE BENEFICIAL TO HELP THEM GET
RE-ESTABLISHED AND MAINTAIN SUITABLE HOUSING.
PUBLIC SERVICES COVER A BROAD AREA THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY.
THIS CAN INCLUDE CHILD CARE YOUTH, HEALTH SERVICES,
EMPLOYMENT, RECREATION, EDUCATION, ELDERLY AND SPECIAL NEEDS
AS WELL AS HOMELESS SERVICES.
OUR PUBLIC FACILITIES FUNDING CAN GO TO ASSIST WITH
CONSTRUCTION REHAB, OPERATION OF CHILD CARE FACILITIES,
HEALTH CARE.
AGAIN, SPECIAL NEEDS, NEIGHBORHOOD, RECREATIONAL FACILITIES
SUCH AS PARKS, HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY IMPROVEMENTS,
ENERGY EFFICIENCY AS WELL AS INFRASTRUCTURE.
SO THESE ARE OUR AMOUNTS.
WE WERE JUST NOTIFIED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO FROM THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT THAT THIS IS WHAT WE WILL BE GETTING.
THESE AMOUNTS ARE VERY CONSISTENT.
THERE IS A SLIGHT DIFFERENCE.
MOST OF THEM ARE LESS THAN ONE FULL PERCENTAGE POINT
DIFFERENT FROM LAST YEAR'S.
SO WE WILL MAINTAIN OUR SHIP FUNDING IS AN ESTIMATE AS THE
STATE BUDGET IS NOT COMPLETE.
WE HAVE BEEN TOLD WE SHOULD EXPECT ABOUT THE SAME ALLOCATION

AS WELL.
SO OUR TOTAL STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDING IS LOOKING AT 13.2
MILLION FOR THE UPCOMING YEAR.
THIS IS OUR CALENDAR.
WE ALREADY RELEASED OUR APPLICATIONS.
WE'VE GONE THROUGH RECEIVING THOSE APPLICATIONS.
WE HAVE GONE THROUGH A REVIEW COMMITTEE, AND FUNDING
RECOMMENDATIONS ARE BEING MADE AT THIS TIME.
MEMOS ARE BEING SENT OUT TO NOTIFY THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN
TENTATIVELY SELECTED AS WELL AS TO GET THE MAYOR'S APPROVAL.
SO TONIGHT IS OUR FIRST PUBLIC HEARING.
OUR 30-DAY COMMENT PERIOD WILL OPEN ON JUNE 23rd, AND IT
WILL STAY OPEN FOR 30 DAYS.
AND WE WILL HAVE OUR SECOND PUBLIC HEARING ON JULY 24th,
AGAIN, IN THE EVENING MEETING AND THE PUBLIC COMMENT WILL
THEN CLOSE.
WE ANTICIPATE BRINGING THE ACTION PLAN TO COUNCIL ON AUGUST
7 FOR YOUR APPROVAL AND THEN TRANSMISSION TO HUD PRIOR TO
AUGUST 15.
THE NEW FUNDING WILL GO INTO EFFECT OCTOBER 1 FOR EACH OF
OUR SUBRECIPIENTS, AGENCIES, TO BEGIN THEIR PROGRAMS.
AND THEY WILL GO FOR A YEAR.
THIS IS OUR WEB PAGE AND RESOURCES.
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN IS A KEY KIND OF BIBLE THAT WE GO
BY TO ENSURE THAT THE COMMUNITY IS INVOLVED.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR INPUT FROM LOW AND MODERATE INCOME FOLKS,
MINORITIES, NON-ENGLISH SPEAKING, PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES,
PUBLIC HOUSING RESIDENTS.
AGAIN, WE HAVE THE 30 DAY PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD AS REQUIRED,
AND WE TAKE COMMENTS EITHER IN PERSON, VOICE MAIL, E-MAIL,
ANYTHING FOLKS WANT TO DO, WE'LL TAKE THEIR COMMENTS INTO
CONSIDERATION.
THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR YOU.
QUESTIONS?
5:13:56PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
DOES COUNCIL HAVE QUESTIONS?
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WISH TO COMMENT?
IS THERE A MOTION TO CLOSE?
5:14:01PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
SO MOVED.
5:14:01PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
SECOND.
5:14:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER
MIRANDA, ASK HE HAD FROM MANISCALCO.
ALL IN FAVOR, AYE?
OPPOSED, AYES.
WE'LL HAVE THE SECOND PUBLIC HEARING WILL BE HELD ON JULY
24, 2025, AT 5:01 P.M. AT 315 EAST KENNEDY BOULEVARD, THIRD
FLOOR, TAMPA, FLORIDA, 33602.
NEXT ON THE AGENDA IS NUMBER 3, VAC-24-19.
5:14:40PM >>ROSS SAMONS:
ROSS SAMONS, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
I WOULD LIKE TO ASK THE CLERK TO SHARE MY SCREEN, PLEASE.
5:14:58PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE'RE BEFUDDLED.

WE GOT IT.
ROSS, YOU'RE GOOD TO GO.
5:15:21PM >>ROSS SAMONS:
ROSS SAMONS, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
PRESENTING FILE VAC-24-19.
APPLICANT NAME IS CHRISTOPHER HOROCKI.
REPRESENTATIVE NAME IS -- HUDSON.
PROPERTY ADDRESS IS 614 EAST 7TH AVENUE.
THE PROPOSED VACATING REQUEST IS VACATE ALLEYWAY LOCATED
NORTH OF 7th AVENUE, SOUTH OF OAK AVENUE, EAST OF
INTERSTATE 275 AND WEST OF TALIAFERRO AVENUE.
APPLICATION WAS FILED AUGUST 23, 2024.
APPLICANT'S REASON FOR THE APPLICATION IS THE ALLEY IS NOT
UTILIZED BY BOTH ADJOINING PROPERTIES.
RIGHT-OF-WAY WAS CREATED BY SUBDIVISION PLAT.
THE EXISTING RIGHT-OF-WAY IS APPROXIMATELY 1,139 SQUARE
FEET.
HERE IS AN AERIAL VIEW SHOWING THE APPLICANT'S PROPERTY IN
RED AND THE PROPOSED VACATING REQUEST IN YELLOW.
THE SUBDIVISION PLAT IN WHICH THE ALLEY WAS CREATED.
THIS IS AN IMAGE LOOKING NORTH FROM 7th AVENUE.
THE APPROXIMATE LOCATION IS JUST BEHIND THE LINE THERE OF
THE ALLEYWAY.
AND HERE IS AN ALTERNATE AERIAL VIEW LOOKING SOUTH.
AGAIN, THE APPROXIMATE LOCATION OF THE ALLEYWAY IS JUST
BEHIND THE BUILDING HERE.

STAFF OBJECTS TO THIS VACATING REQUEST.
EASEMENT RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED BY TECO, AND IF COUNCIL
APPROVES OF THE VACATING REQUEST, TRANSPORTATION WILL
REQUIRE AN EASEMENT OVER THE ENTIRE VACATED RIGHT-OF-WAY
BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS MUST COMPLY WITH NATURAL RESOURCES AND
CHAPTER 27 AS REGARDS TO TREE PRESERVATION AND SITE DESIGN
FOR ANY IMPROVEMENTS PLACED ADJACENT TO TREES IN A VACATED
AREA.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
I'M AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
5:17:21PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
DOES COUNCIL HAVE QUESTIONS?
NO QUESTIONS.
THANK YOU, ROSS.
IS THERE AN APPLICANT?
5:17:48PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
ALEX SCHALER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
FIRST WANT TO SAY HOW SORRY I AM FOR YOUR LOSS AND OUR LOSS
TOO.
WE'LL REALLY MISS HER UP THERE.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK YOU MENTIONED THIS THIS MORNING, IT CAN
BE DIFFERENT BEING A FEMALE IN THIS ROOM.
I ALWAYS LOOKED UP TO THE TWO OF YOU.
I WISH I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE CHANCE TO SAY THAT TO HER.
I WILL GO AHEAD AND JUMP IN.

WE HAVE TWO CASES BEFORE YOU TONIGHT, A VACATING AND A
REZONING.
THEY ARE INHERENTLY PAIRED TOGETHER.
I'LL MENTION A LITTLE BIT OF THE REZONING IN THIS BUT OPENED
SEPARATELY, HEARD SEPARATELY.
THE REASON FOR A VACATING REQUEST THIS EVENING IS THAT WE
ARE SEEKING THE USE OF TWO ADDITIONAL FEET OF LAND THAT IS
LOCATED IN THIS ALLEY.
I HAVE A GRAPHIC HERE.
THIS IS MY CLIENT'S PROPERTY HERE.
AND THEN YOU CAN SEE THE ALLEY IS HIGHLIGHTED IN BLUE.
OUR CURRENT LOT WIDTH IS JUST SHY OF 58 FEET.
I'LL GET INTO THIS A LITTLE BIT MORE IN THE REZONING, BUT WE
STRONGLY FEEL THIS LOT IS BETTER SUITED FOR SOMETHING
COMMERCIAL, SPECIFICALLY COMMERCIAL NEIGHBORHOOD.
5:18:51PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
CLARIFICATION.
WE DON'T SEE THE SHADING.
5:18:56PM >> IT'S ON THE EAST SIDE.
IT MIGHT BE TOO LIGHT.
YOU CAN SEE WHERE IT SAYS TOGETHER WITH, WEST HALF, THAT IS
THE ALLEY.
COMMERCIAL -- PER CODE A COMMERCIAL ZONING REQUIRES A
60-FOOT MINIMUM LOT WIDTH.
FULL TRANSPARENCY, WE FILED THIS THINKING WE HAD 60 FEET.
THE REZONING ORIGINALLY WITHDREW IT, FILED THE VACATING,

REFILED THE REZONING.
SO THAT IS SOLELY WHY WE ARE HERE BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING
BECAUSE WE WOULD LIKE TO OBTAIN FIVE FEET OF THE VACATED
ALLEY.
UNIMPROVED.
IT'S NOT USED, SO THAT WE CAN MEET THAT MINIMUM LOT WIDTH
FOR COMMERCIAL REZONING.
AS ROSS ALLUDED TO, WE DID HAVE FULL STAFF CONSISTENCY
FINDINGS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MOBILITY.
I'M GOING TO WALK THROUGH THAT IN THE REST OF THE
PRESENTATION.
SO I WANT TO CAVEAT THIS BY SAYING THAT ALL OF THIS IS IN
THEORY.
I'LL SHOW YOU WHY IN JUST A SECOND.
BUT TRANSPORTATION'S OBJECTION, THE GENESIS OF THAT, IS
BASED IN THE FACT THAT THIS VACATING WOULD CREATE A, QUOTE,
DEAD END.
YOU CAN SEE IF YOU FOLLOW THE YELLOW ARROWS, IF YOU'RE
COMING DOWN OAK -- AGAIN, UNIMPROVED.
LET'S SAY YOU ARE DRIVING HERE, COMING DOWN OAK, YOU TURN TO
THE SOUTH, THE APPLICANT'S PROPERTY IS THERE OUTLINED IN
ORANGE, SO YOU'RE UP AGAINST A DEAD END THERE.
HOWEVER, THERE IS AN EAST-WEST ALLEY.
YOU CAN SEE THE OTHER YELLOW ARROW, HORIZONTAL.
YOU'RE GOING TO RUN -- YOU'RE RUNNING INTO RIGHT-OF-WAY, BUT

IT'S D.O.T. RIGHT-OF-WAY, SO IT'S NOT CITY RIGHT-OF-WAY.
FROM THE CITY'S PERSPECTIVE, WE'RE CREATING A DEAD END HERE
BECAUSE IT OUTFALLS INTO D.O.T.'S LAND.
HOWEVER, OUR SOLUTION FOR THIS IS THAT WE HAVE AGREED IN THE
ORDINANCE, THIS LANGUAGE IS IN THERE, THAT WE ARE PROVIDING
A PERPETUAL TRANSPORTATION EASEMENT ACROSS THE ENTIRE ALLEY
WIDTH FOREVER.
IT RUNS WITH THE LAND SO THAT THERE IS NO EVEN THEORETICAL
FORMATION OF A DEAD END HERE.
I THINK THAT BEGS THE QUESTION BECAUSE WE DEFINITELY TALKED
ABOUT THIS BEFORE IN DIFFERENT CASES, WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN RIGHT-OF-WAY AND A PERPETUAL EASEMENT.
THE ANSWER TO THAT IS HONESTLY REALLY NOT MUCH.
I'M SURE RON COULD SPEAK TO THAT A LITTLE BIT BETTER THAN
ME.
FROM AN OWNERSHIP PERSPECTIVE, NOTHING CHANGES.
THE CITY DOES NOT OWN THIS IN FEE SIMPLE TODAY.
IT'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE THAT.
STILL IS ALLOWABLE FOR PUBLIC USE IN THE EASEMENT.
AGAIN, THIS IS GOING TO RUN WITH THE LAND.
SO I WANTED TO RUN THROUGH SOME OF THE VACATING CRITERIA,
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT YOU ALL REFER BACK TO THIS, THE 2011
MEMORANDUM AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE VERY CLEAR
THAT WE FEEL AS IF WE'RE COMPLYING WITH ALL OF THESE
CRITERIA FOR A VACATING.

THE FIRST ONE IN THE INTEREST OF THE GENERAL WELFARE TO
VACATE THE ALLEY.
THAT MEMO FROM THE CITY LEGAL DEPARTMENT LISTS THREE
DIFFERENT EXAMPLES, TWO OF WHICH ARE SHOWN HERE ON THE
SCREEN THAT I'VE OUTLINED IN GREEN.
WILL IT ALLEVIATE OR RELIEVE THE PUBLIC FROM THE COST OF
MAINTAINING A RIGHT-OF-WAY THAT'S NO LONGER USEFUL.
THE ANSWER TO THAT IS YES.
THE SECOND ONE IS THE ENTIRE REASON THAT WE'RE FILING THIS
APPLICATION, WHICH IS WE DO BELIEVE THAT IT'S GOING TO
FOSTER REDEVELOPMENT ON THE ADJACENT PROPERTY.
THE SECOND CRITERIA IS WILL AN ABUTTING OWNER'S ACCESS BE
COMPLETELY CUT OFF OR DIMINISHED?
AGAIN, THE ANSWER TO THAT IS NO.
I'VE SHOWN HERE, THIS IS THE HOUSING AUTHORITY DIRECTLY
EAST.
THEY HAVE WRITTEN A LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR THE VACATING AS
WELL.
THAT'S IN THE RECORD.
BUT THEY HAVE ACCESS OFF OF 7th.
AGAIN, THEORETICALLY D.O.T., THEY OWN ALL OF THIS OTHER LAND
AROUND THE APPLICANT'S PROPERTY.
THEY HAVE ACCESS OFF OF OAK AND THEY ALSO HAVE, AS YOU CAN
SEE, A CURB CUT THERE OFF OF 7th.
CAN THE GENERAL PUBLIC INTEREST BE SERVED WITH SPECIAL

CONDITIONS?
THE ANSWER TO THAT IS, YES.
THAT'S WHY WE'RE PROPOSING THIS PERPETUAL TRANSPORTATION
EASEMENT TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS AREA IS STILL AVAILABLE TO
THE PUBLIC, STILL AVAILABLE TO THE CITY FOR UTILITIES,
MAINTENANCE, ACCESS, ET CETERA.
THE FOURTH AND LAST CRITERIA IS THAT IF THE ENTIRE ALLEY IS
NOT BEING VACATED, IS THERE A CUL-DE-SAC OR TURN AROUND?
A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT ANSWERS FOR THIS.
THE FIRST IS THAT WITH THE PERPETUAL EASEMENT, THIS DOES NOT
RESULT IN A DEAD END.
THE SECOND, AS I HAD MENTIONED EARLIER, TECHNICALLY, YOU CAN
GET OUT.
YOU'LL BE GETTING OUT VIA F.D.O.T. RIGHT-OF-WAY AND NOT CITY
RIGHT-OF-WAY.
BUT LIKE I SAID, I CAVEATED ALL OF THIS BECAUSE IF YOU'RE
LOOKING AT A RIGHT-OF-WAY ATLAS OR LOOKING AT THIS, AS ROSS
SHOWED, FROM AN AERIAL VIEW OR PULLING STUFF FROM GOOGLE
MAPS, YES, THIS THEORETICALLY CREATES A DEAD END.
BUT THE DEAD END ALREADY EXISTS.
IT EXISTS ON OAK.
IF YOU ARE OUT THERE TODAY AND YOU'RE STANDING WHERE THAT
YELLOW ARROW IS AND YOU'RE LOOKING WEST, THESE GUARDRAILS
ARE UP, CITY DEAD END SIGN THAT'S UP.
THERE ARE THREE RED YOU CANNOT PROCEED SIGNS THAT ARE UP.

YOU CAN'T EVEN GET TO THE POINT WHERE YOU'RE ENDING UP IN A
DEAD END BECAUSE YOU CAN'T ACCESS IT FROM THE NORTH.
THIS IS THE PINCH POINT OF THE DEAD END.
AGAIN, YOU CAN'T GET THERE TODAY.
I DON'T WANT TO SAY THIS ON THE RECORD, BUT I WAS
TRESPASSING ON D.O.T.'S PROPERTY EARLIER WHEN I TOOK THIS
PHOTO.
YOU ALSO CANNOT ACCESS THIS ALLEY FROM THE WEST EITHER.
THERE ARE HUGE SHIPPING CONTAINERS ON D.O.T.'S LAND.
AGAIN, IN THEORY, YES, THIS IS CREATING A DEAD END, BUT IN
REALITY, YOU CAN'T EVEN GET THERE TO CAUSE A DEAD END TODAY.
I HAVE IT SHOWN HERE JUST ZOOM OUT, GRAPHIC ON THE AERIAL,
AGAIN, ACCESS CLOSED OFF AT OAK, SHIPPING CONTAINERS
BLOCKING THE EAST-WEST ALLEY THERE.
YOU CAN'T END UP IN A DEAD END.
ACTUALLY, IRONICALLY, THE ONLY WAY YOU END UP IN A DEAD END
IS IF YOU ARE ACCESSING THROUGH THE ALLEY THAT WE'RE TRYING
TO VACATE TODAY.
THAT'S HOW WOULD YOU END UP IN A DEAD END.
WITH THAT, I'M GOING TO CONCLUDE WHAT I HAVE TO SAY, BUT I
AM GOING TO BRING UP CHRISTOPHER HOROCKI WHO IS THE PROPERTY
OWNER.
I CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS, TOO, BEFORE.
5:24:47PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I WANT TO KNOW WHY YOU DIDN'T VACATE ALSO THE
ALLEY TO THE NORTH?

5:24:51PM >> THIS IS PART OF OUR ITERATIVE PROCESS OF GETTING THE
APPLICATION HERE.
SO WHEN YOU VACATE THE ALLEY, D.O.T. OWNS THAT LAND TO THE
NORTH.
WE EXTENSIVELY DISCUSSED WITH D.O.T.
THEY DON'T OBJECT TO THIS.
WE WERE TRYING TO WORK WITH THEM TO BE COAPPLICANTS ON THE
APPLICATION, VACATE THE ENTIRETY OF IT.
BUT D.O.T. WANTED TO GAIN OWNERSHIP OF THE ENTIRE WIDTH OF
THE ALLEY.
AND IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT.
WE WERE LIKE THE HOUSING AUTHORITY IS GOING TO GET FIVE.
YOU COULD BUY IT BACK BUT WE DON'T REPRESENT THE HOUSING
AUTHORITY.
THIS IS A LITTLE BIT BEYOND OUR SCOPE.
WE DID TRY.
5:25:22PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR MORE LAND.
5:25:26PM >> I KNOW.
YEP.
5:25:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILMAN MIRANDA, DID YOU HAVE A
QUESTION?
5:25:29PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NO, I'M SORRY.
5:25:30PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I HAVE A QUESTION.
THIS SEEMS LIKE AN INTERESTING PROCESS COMPARED TO WHAT WE
USUALLY GO THROUGH AND THAT WOULD BE A PD OR VARIANCE.

WHY NOT A PD.
5:25:40PM >> BECAUSE WE THOUGHT WE DON'T ANY KIND OF SPECIFIC
DEVELOPMENT IN MIND.
I'LL LET CHRISTOPHER SPEAK.
THEY HAVE OWNED THE PROPERTY EITHER 10 OR 15 YEARS.
WE THINK A COMMERCIAL USE IS BETTER BUT DON'T REALLY KNOW
WHAT.
WITH THAT INTENT IN MIND, THE RARE OCCASION WE CAN DO AN
EUCLIDEAN REZONING, NEVER PAIRED --
5:26:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IN MY TWO YEARS, I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS.
5:26:05PM >> I HAVEN'T EITHER.
I'LL BRING CHRISTOPHER UP.
5:26:12PM >> GOOD EVENING.
CHRISTOPHER HOROCKI.
THE ONLY THING I WANT TO MENTION, ADD TO THIS PRESENTATION,
IT'S LIKE I'VE BEEN OWNER OF THE PROPERTY FOR ABOUT 25
YEARS.
I BOUGHT THIS PIECE OF LAND WITH THE IDEA TO BUILD A
RESIDENTIAL HOME, BUT ONCE WE PURCHASED IT A COUPLE OF YEARS
LATER, THEY DECIDED TO WIDEN THE HIGHWAY AND THE NOISE
BECAME EXTREMELY LOUD.
IT WOULD BE UNBEARABLE TO LIVE THERE.
SO WE DROPPED THE WHOLE BUILDING A HOUSE AND WE JUST
PURCHASED A DIFFERENT HOME IN TAMPA.
THAT LOT HAS BEEN SITTING THERE FOR SUCH A LONG TIME.

NOW WE'RE TRYING TO REZONE IT AND SEE WHAT WE CAN DO WITH
IT.
THAT'S ABOUT IT.
5:27:06PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM?
5:27:11PM >> MOVE TO CLOSE.
5:27:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN
MANISCALCO AND A SECOND FROM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK TO CLOSE.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
OPPOSED.
AYES HAVE IT.
THE HEARING IS CLOSED.

5:29:03PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
PER OUR AGENDA REVIEW, WE'LL HEAR ITEM 10
NOW, FILE REZ-25-03.
5:29:29PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE WITH
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
AGENDA ITEM 10 IS REZ-25-03, REQUEST TO REZONE 614 EAST 7TH
AVENUE FROM RESIDENTIAL MULTIFAMILY 24 TO COMMERCIAL
NEIGHBORHOOD.
WE'LL START WITH AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND

SURROUNDING AREA.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS OUTLINED IN RED ON THE AERIAL MAP.
IT IS LOCATED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF EAST 7TH AVENUE.
AS YOU CAN SEE, IT'S IN THE GENERAL VICINITY OF EAST OAK
AVENUE TO THE NORTH, NORTH TALIAFERRO AVENUE TO THE EAST,
AND I-275 TO THE WEST.
THERE IS A MIX OF USES SURROUNDING THE SUBJECT SITE.
WE HAVE THE CITY OF TAMPA HOUSING AUTHORITY JOB TRAINING
CENTER TO THE IMMEDIATE EAST.
WE HAVE VACANT LANDS TO THE NORTH AND TO THE WEST.
SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE, THERE IS A PROPERTY ZONED PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT WHICH IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION FOR
MULTIFAMILY AND STOREFRONT RESIDENTIAL.
THIS IS THE SURVEY OF THE SUBJECT SITE OUTLINED IN YELLOW.
THE SURVEY BEFORE YOU DOES INCLUDE THE RIGHT-OF-WAY THAT WAS
JUST DISCUSSED AND APPROVED BY COUNCIL.
GIVEN THE SURROUNDING USES, THE REQUEST IS USE OF COMMERCIAL
NEIGHBORHOOD ZONING IS APPROPRIATE IN LOCATION AND PROVIDES
AN APPROPRIATE TRANSITION WITH SURROUNDING PARCELS.
THIS IS A EUCLIDEAN REZONING REQUEST, SO THERE ARE NO
ELEVATIONS OR SITE PLANS TO SHOW, BUT I DO HAVE SOME PHOTOS
OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS A PHOTO OF THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION.
NORTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE, WE HAVE THE VACANT PARCEL,
F.D.O.T.

SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT PARCEL ACROSS EAST 7TH AVENUE, THE
PROPERTY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, THE JOB TRAINING CENTER.
WEST THE PROPERTY STAGING AREA.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ON 7th.
LOOKING EAST ON 7th.
AND JUST EAST OF THE SITE WE ALSO HAVE A REHAB CENTER.
IT'S ON THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF 7th AND NORTH TALIAFERRO.
THERE IS ALSO A PARKING LOT ASSOCIATED WITH THAT WE WANTED
TO INCLUDE.
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION COMPLIANCE STAFF, WE REVIEWED THE
APPLICATION, FIND THE REQUEST TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY
OF TAMPA LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
5:32:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
DOES COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
5:32:14PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
I'LL YIELD TO PLANNING COMMISSION
STAFF.
5:32:26PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
QUINN STEELE, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT, THE
CENTRAL PARK URBAN VILLAGE IN THE ENCORE NEIGHBORHOOD.
ADDITIONALLY, IT'S IN EVACUATION ZONE E.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS HERE OUTLINED IN PURPLE.
YOU CAN SEE THE UMU SURROUNDS THE ENTIRE SITE AND THE SITE
IS ALSO UMU 60.

TO THE EAST ALONG NEBRASKA AVENUE IS CMU 35 AND TO THE WEST
ACROSS I-275 IS RESIDENTIAL 83.
THE REQUEST ALIGNS WITH POLICIES THAT ENCOURAGE
REDEVELOPMENT IN URBAN VILLAGES AND MIXED USE CORRIDORS.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT SHOULD ORIENT BUILDINGS TO THE STREET AND
LOCATE PARKING BEHIND STRUCTURES TO SUPPORT A WALKABLE
ENVIRONMENT.
THE REQUEST WILL ALLOW INFILL DEVELOPMENT THAT ALLOWS
COMMERCIAL SERVICES NEAR EMPLOYMENT AND RESIDENTIAL AREAS.
OVERALL, PROPOSED REZONING IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE
SURROUNDING AREA AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LONG RANGE
DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ENVISIONED UNDER THE UMU 60 DESIGNATION
AND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
5:33:24PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANYBODY HAVE QUESTIONS FOR PLANNING
COMMISSION?
HEARING NO QUESTIONS, APPLICANT, PLEASE.
5:33:45PM >> ALEX SCHALER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
I'LL KEEP THIS BRIEF OUT OF RESPECT FOR EVERYBODY'S TIME.
AS MENTIONED, WE FEEL THAT THE PROPERTY IS BETTER SUITED FOR
COMMERCIAL USES.
IT'S MORE COMPATIBLE GIVEN THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT.
AS MENTIONED, D.O.T.'S LAND IS AROUND THERE, THE HOUSING
AUTHORITY TO THE EAST, OFFICE BUILDINGS, FITNESS, AND THEN

THIS MULTIFAMILY PROJECT THAT LOOKS LIKE IT HAS LITERALLY
COME UP OVERNIGHT.
240 UNITS RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET.
THAT WOULD BE GREAT PATRONS OF A FUTURE COMMERCIAL USE.
WE DO HAVE A FULLY CONSISTENT STAFF REPORT.
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
5:34:20PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE APPRECIATE YOUR BREVITY.
DOES COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OF STAFF?
THANK YOU.

ITEM NUMBER 4.
5:35:55PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE, DEVELOPMENT
COORDINATION.
AGENDA ITEM 4 IS REZ-24-114.
A REQUEST TO REZONE 206 WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE FROM COMMERCIAL
GENERAL AND RESIDENTIAL MULTIFAMILY 24 TO PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT FOR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED USES.
WE'LL START WITH AN AERIAL.

THE SUBJECT SITE IS OUTLINED IN RED.
IT IS LOCATED ALONG THE SOUTH SIDE --
5:36:20PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HOLD ON ONE SECOND.
THE PRESENTATION IS NOT UP.
I KNOW, BRIAN, IT'S YOUR LAST DAY.
[ LAUGHTER ]
5:36:36PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
I COULD START OVER ON THE FIRST
PART.
WE'LL START WITH THE AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND THE
SURROUNDING AREA.
SUBJECT PROPERTY IS OUTLINED IN RED ON THE AERIAL HERE.
IT IS LOCATED ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE.
THE SITE IS CURRENTLY VACANT.
IT IS SURROUNDED TO THE EAST AND SOUTH BY RESIDENTIAL --
SORRY, SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED USES.
TO THE WEST BY SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED USES.
AND TO THE NORTH THERE IS A VEHICLE REPAIR SHOP THERE.
THE APPLICANT PROPOSES THE CONSTRUCTION OF FOUR
SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED DWELLINGS.
THE SITE WAS PREVIOUSLY LOCATED WITHIN THE TAMPA HEIGHTS
HISTORIC DISTRICT AND WAS PETITIONED AND APPROVED FOR
REMOVAL IN MAY OF 2025.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS WITHIN THE TAMPA HEIGHTS OVERLAY AND
SHALL COMPLY WITH SECTION 27-244 TAMPA HEIGHTS OVERLAY
DISTRICT DESIGN STANDARDS AT THE TIME OF PERMITTING.

NEXT WE HAVE THE SITE PLAN TO SHOW.
THE SITE LAYOUT SHOWS THE PROPOSED FOUR UNITS ORIENTED
TOWARDS THE WESTERN HALF OF THE PROPERTY WITH INGRESS AND
EGRESS PROVIDED ALONG BOTH WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE AS WELL AS
THE 18-FOOT PLATTED ALLEY TO THE SOUTH.
UNIT ONE UP AT THE TOP HERE IS PROPOSED WITH FRONT DOOR
ORIENTATION TOWARDS WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE.
THERE IS A FOUR FOOT SIDEWALK LEADING OUT FROM THE UNIT,
WHICH CONNECTS TO A FIVE-FOOT SIDEWALK ALONG THE SOUTHERN
SIDE OF WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE.
NEXT WE HAVE UNITS TWO, THREE, AND FOUR.
THEY HAVE FRONT DOOR ORIENTATION TOWARDS THE WESTERN SIDE OF
THE PROPERTY.
THEY WILL ESSENTIALLY LOOK OUT TO A COURTYARD BETWEEN THE
SUBJECT SITE AND THE ADJACENT PARCEL.
EACH OF THESE UNITS HAS A FOUR-FOOT WIDE SIDEWALK.
THEY ALSO HAVE COVERED PORCHES.
NOW, I DO WANT TO NOTE THAT THE SIDEWALKS LEADING OUT FROM
EACH OF THE UNITS LINKS UP WITH A FOUR-FOOT-WIDE SIDEWALK
WHICH RUNS NORTH TO SOUTH, WHICH IS LOCATED ON THE ADJACENT
PROPERTY.
THE SAME FOUR-FOOT SIDEWALK LINKS IN WITH THE FIVE-FOOT
SIDEWALK ALONG WEST COLUMBUS.
THE APPLICANT AND THE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNER HAVE SIGNED A
SIDEWALK EASEMENT PERMITTING INGRESS/EGRESS ON THIS

FOUR-FOOT SIDEWALK.
ADDITIONALLY, THE SITE ALSO PROVIDES FOUR GUEST PARKING
SPOTS ALONG THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY.
NEXT WE HAVE SOME ELEVATIONS.
FIRST WE HAVE THE EAST ELEVATION AS WELL AS THE SOUTH
ELEVATION.
THE PROPOSED ELEVATIONS DEPICT THE THREE-STORY BUILDING WITH
HEIGHT PROPOSED AT 36 FEET, 3 INCHES.
EACH UNIT, AS I'LL SHOW ON THE NEXT PAGE, DOES SHOW A
TWO-CAR GARAGE.
OF COURSE, WE HAVE THE WEST ELEVATIONS AND THE NORTH
ELEVATIONS.
THIS APPLICATION IS REQUESTING ONE WAIVER.
NEXT WE HAVE SOME PHOTOS OF THE SITE AS WELL.
THE FIRST PHOTO WAS TAKEN FROM THE NORTH SIDE OF WEST
COLUMBUS DRIVE.
IT'S LOOKING DIRECTLY AT THE SUBJECT SITE.
THE NEXT PHOTO IS FROM THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING NORTH.
YOU CAN SEE THE VEHICLE REPAIR BUSINESS TO THE NORTH.
HERE IS AN ADDITIONAL PHOTO LOOKING NORTH, HOWEVER, IT WAS
PHOTOGRAPHED FROM THE SOUTH END OF THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING
TOWARDS WEST COLUMBUS.
EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED DWELLING.
THIS IS AN ADDITIONAL VIEW LOOKING EAST.
LOOKING WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, YOU CAN SEE THE EXISTING

SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED DEVELOPMENT.
THIS IS THE BUILDING.
THERE ARE TWO BUILDINGS PART OF THAT DEVELOPMENT.
THIS IS THE EAST SIDE BUILDING, AND YOU CAN SEE A LITTLE BIT
HERE IN THE PHOTO THE SIDEWALK WHICH WOULD BE SHARED BY THE
TWO DEVELOPMENTS AS WELL AS THE COURTYARD AREA THAT WOULD BE
VIEWED FROM UNITS TWO THROUGH FOUR.
HERE IS A PHOTO SHOWING THE DEVELOPMENT TO THE WEST.
I HAVE A VERTICAL AS WELL.
THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH FROM ON THE SITE, FROM ON-SITE.
WHERE THAT TRUCK IS IN THE DISTANCE, THAT'S WHERE THE
18-FOOT PLATTED ALLEY IS.
THIS IS A PHOTO TAKEN BASICALLY ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE
ALLEYWAY.
THE WHITE FENCE ON THE OTHER SIDE WE HAVE SINGLE-FAMILY
DETACHED UNITS.
THIS IS A PHOTO OF THE SAME HOUSE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
WHITE FENCE.
AND THEN JUST TO SHOW HOW THE ALLEY IS, PRETTY NICE LOOKING
ALLEY.
LOOKING WEST ON THAT ALLEY.
LOOKING EAST.
AND IF YOU WERE STANDING ON THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING
SOUTHWEST, THIS IS THE VIEW THERE AS WELL.
ALL RIGHT.

DEVELOPMENT REVIEW AND COMPLIANCE STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE
PETITION.
WE FIND THE REQUEST INCONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF TAMPA LAND
DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS, NOTWITHSTANDING STAFF'S FINDING OF
INCONSISTENCY, IF CITY COUNCIL APPROVES THE APPLICATION, THE
MODIFICATIONS TO THE SITE PLAN AS SHOWN ON THE SUBMITTED
REVISION SHEET MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
READINGS.
THE REVISIONS WILL NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE OF TRANSPORTATION'S
INCONSISTENT FINDING.
I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
5:42:46PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILMAN MIRANDA, YOUR LIGHT IS ON.
5:42:48PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NO, I'M SORRY.
5:42:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
5:42:50PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
IS THE PINK HOUSE PART OF THIS?
IT'S NOT DEMOLISHED -- NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
5:42:57PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
WHAT IS THE WAIVER?
5:43:03PM >>CHRISTOPHER DEMANCHE:
THE WAIVER IS TO SECTION 27-283.12,
IT'S THE REQUEST TO REDUCE THE AISLE WIDTH FROM 24 FEET TO
20 FEET.
IT ACTUALLY RELATES TO THE BACKUP DISTANCE FOR ANY CARS THAT
ARE PARKED IN THE FOUR GUEST SPOTS.
5:43:31PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
OKAY.
THANK YOU.

5:43:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU.
PLANNING COMMISSION.
5:43:46PM >> BEFORE I BEGIN MY PRESENTATION, I HAVE A REVISED STAFF
REPORT TO ENTER INTO THE RECORD.
THE STAFF REPORT INCORRECTLY STATED THE NUMBER OF UNITS IN
THE ANALYSIS SECTION.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT.
THE TAMPA HEIGHTS URBAN VILLAGE IN THE TAMPA HEIGHTS
NEIGHBORHOOD.
IT IS ALSO IN EVACUATION ZONE E.
HERE IS A FLU MAP OF THE SUBJECT SITE WHICH IS OUTLINED IN
PURPLE.
IT IS DESIGNATED COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35 AND SURROUNDS THE
SITE ON ALL SIDES.
TO THE EAST ALONG WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE AND NORTH TAMPA STREET
IS UMU 60 DESIGNATION.
FURTHER SOUTH IS CC-35.
TWO BLOCKS SOUTH IS THE RESIDENTIAL 35 DESIGNATION AND TWO
BLOCKS NORTH IS RESIDENTIAL 20.
THIS BLUE HERE TO THE NORTH IS PUBLIC QUASI-PUBLIC WHICH
INCLUDES THE MEDICAL ACADEMY AT DW WATERS AND GRAHAM
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND
FOUND NO ADVERSE IMPACTS TO THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD.

THE PROPOSAL WOULD PROVIDE COMPATIBLE INFILL WITHIN AN URBAN
VILLAGE AND ALONG A TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDOR AS SUPPORTED
BY THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
IT WILL PROVIDE ADDITIONAL HOUSING IN PROXIMITY TO TRANSIT
AND EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES AND COMMERCIAL SERVICES.
ADDITIONALLY, THE PROPOSED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT PROVIDES
PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIONS TO WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE AND MAINTAINS
ALLEY ACCESS.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE SITE PLAN AND THE
DEVELOPMENT IS COMPARABLE AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE
SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD AND CONSISTENT WITH THE LONG-RANGE
DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ENVISIONED UNDER THE CMU 35 DESIGNATION
AND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
I'M AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS.
5:45:26PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
END WITH RESTATING YOUR NAME.
5:45:29PM >> QUINN STEELE.
5:45:33PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU.
APPLICANT, PLEASE.
5:45:38PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
STEVE MICHELINI REPRESENTING THE PETITIONER.
LET ME START BY SAYING THAT THE ISSUE REGARDING THE WAIVER
APPLIES TO THE ALLEY.
IT'S NOT FOR THE DRIVE AISLE FOR THE GARAGES.

WE PREPARED AN AUTOCAD -- WE PREPARED AN AUTO DIAGRAM
SHOWING THOSE COULD BE MET.
ONE OF THE THINGS COUNCIL MIGHT WANT TO LOOK AT IS THE
MANDATORY USE OF ALLEYS AND THE BACKING UP AREAS.
YOU CAN'T MEET THE TECHNICAL STANDARD, BUT IT'S IN YOUR CODE
THAT YOU HAVE TO USE THEM.
WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THAT BEFORE.
THERE IS THE AUTOCAD DIAGRAM SHOWING THAT WE CAN SAFELY
MANEUVER INTO AND OUT OF THOSE VISITOR SPACES THAT ARE ON
THE ALLEY.
WE ALSO WIDENED THOSE VISITOR SPACES TO TEN FEET WIDE.
SO IT WAS EASIER TO MOVE IN AND OUT OF THEM.
THE OTHER THING I WANT TO POINT OUT TO YOU IS THIS PROVIDES
A LOT OF GREENSPACE AND TYPICALLY CALLED A GARDEN STYLE TOWN
HOUSE DEVELOPMENT.
AND IT JOINS WITH THE PROJECT ACROSS THE STREET -- I MEAN,
ACROSS THE GARDEN HERE SO THAT YOU HAVE A CONTINUOUS OPEN
GARDEN WITH CONNECTIVITY TO THE FRONT.
SO IT MAKES FOR A VERY NICE PRESENTATION.
YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THAT WHEN WE CAME BEFORE YOU BEFORE,
THERE WERE SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT THE HISTORIC WALL THAT
EXISTS ON THE ADJACENT PROPERTY.
WE HAVE INCORPORATED THAT INTO OUR PLAN.
I'LL SHOW IT TO YOU.
THIS IS THE WALL ACROSS THE FRONT, AND WE'RE GOING TO

CONTINUE THAT ACROSS THE FRONT OF THIS PROJECT.
WE ARE ALSO SENSITIVE TO THE HISTORIC BUILDING IMMEDIATELY
TO THE EAST, WHICH WE'RE ALSO GOING TO BE SENSITIVE TO.
THE DRIVE AISLE ON THAT SIDE, ON THE EAST SIDE IS 24 FEET
WIDE.
SO THERE'S NO ISSUE WITH THAT ONE.
THIS IS THE PROJECT SITE OVER HERE ON THE LEFT.
AND YOU SEE THIS -- WE'RE JOINING TO THIS PROJECT HERE WITH
THE COURTYARD AND GREENSPACE.
IT'S A BETTER VIEW OF THE PROPERTY THAT WE'RE ADJOINING, AND
THIS WHOLE AREA IN HERE IS GOING TO BE ENHANCED AND AS I
SAID BASICALLY IT'S CALLED A GARDEN-STYLE TOWN HOUSE
PROJECT.
THIS SHOWS YOU THE PROXIMITY OF THE PROJECT SITE, WHICH IS
HERE, VERSUS THE EXISTING TOWN HOUSE PROJECT HERE.
THERE ARE FIVE UNITS HERE, AND WE'RE PROPOSING FOUR UNITS ON
OUR SIDE.
WE HAVE A DETAIL I WANT TO GO OVER WITH YOU BECAUSE GARAGES
HAVE BEEN A BIG ISSUE, AS YOU KNOW, WITH COUNCIL.
AND WHAT WE HAVE DONE IS TO INCORPORATE SOLID WASTE STORAGE
INTO THE INTERIOR HERE, AND THAT STILL LEAVES US WITH A
DIMENSION OF APPROXIMATELY 20 BY 20.
SO WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT THE NEW CODE REFERENCES, YOU WANT
ME TO ZOOM IN ON THAT.
SO WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT THE NEW REGULATIONS REGARDING

GARAGES, YOU SHOULD BE ALSO LOOKING AT OPTIONS THAT INCLUDE,
ARE YOU HAVING INSIDE STORAGE OR OUTSIDE STORAGE SO THAT
IT'S NOT ALL ONE DIMENSION.
AS I MENTIONED, THE ISSUE REGARDING THE WAIVER HAS TO DO
WITH THE ALLEY ACCESS, NOT THE PROPERTY, NOT INSIDE THE
PROPERTY.
WHEN YOU'RE DEALING WITH AN 18-FOOT PLATTED ALLEY AND
REQUIRED TO HAVE 24 FEET OF BACKUP SPACE, YOU SIMPLY CAN'T
MEET IT.
ANYWAY, THIS IS AN ISSUE TO BE LOOKED AT AS MOVING FORWARD
WITH CODE CHANGES SO THAT IT'S UNDERSTOOD, ALTHOUGH THIS IS
AN ALLEY THAT'S IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION, SOME OF THE OTHER
ONES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND IN THE AREA ARE NOT IN SUCH
GOOD CONDITION.
AS THE STAFF HAS POINTED OUT, THE PLANNING COMMISSION HAS
FOUND THIS TO BE CONSISTENT.
THE ACCESS TO THE COURTYARD CONNECTS DIRECTLY TO COLUMBUS
DRIVE.
WE'RE REQUESTING FOUR GARDEN-STYLE TOWN HOUSES TO BE
DEVELOPED ADJACENT TO THAT COURTYARD AND ENHANCE IT.
WE'RE BEING VERY SENSITIVE TO THE HISTORIC NATURE OF THE
WALLS AND FENCES THAT ARE IN EXISTENCE.
THE ISSUES REGARDING THE CONSISTENCY FINDING, AND I'D LIKE
TO HAVE ALL OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT REGARDING THE
CONSISTENCY WITH THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BE RECEIVED

AND FILED.
I'LL BE HAPPY TO GO THROUGH ALL OF THOSE CONDITIONS,
HOWEVER, IF THE REPORT IS RECEIVED AND FILED, I WON'T HAVE
TO READ ALL OF THEM IN WITH THE ATTENTION --
5:51:21PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOVE TO RECEIVE AND FILE.
5:51:24PM >> ATTENTION TO BREVITY AND YOUR LONG DAY, HOPEFULLY NOT
QUITE AS --
5:51:30PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO, A
SECOND FROM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
OPPOSED?
AYES HAVE IT.
5:51:38PM >> I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.
5:51:40PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
5:51:41PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THIS IS A LOVELY PROJECT.
MY ONE THING THAT I WOULD CHANGE IF I WAS -- IF I HAD A
WISH, THERE IS GREAT ACCESS TO THE ALLEY, SO I DON'T KNOW
WHY YOU NEED TO ALSO CONNECT TO COLUMBUS.
BECAUSE AS MORE DEVELOPMENT COMES, THAT'S GOING TO BECOME
MUCH MORE OF A WALKABLE CORRIDOR.
IT'S JUST A SUGGESTION.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE IT.
I WOULD LOVE TO START SEEING THAT IN THE FUTURE AS WE HAVE
MORE SPACE FOR ALLEYS.
NUMBER TWO, I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE SAME DEVELOPER WHO

DEVELOPED THE TOWNHOMES NEXT DOOR.
5:52:23PM >> NO.
5:52:23PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BECAUSE THE NEIGHBORS, WE GOT PHONE CALLS
ALMOST EVERY -- ALMOST TWICE A WEEK BECAUSE THEY WOULD BLOCK
THE ALLEY AND PEOPLE COULDN'T GET TO THEIR GARAGES AND HOME.
SO I JUST WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU AND YOUR DEVELOPER TO REACH
OUT TO THE HOMEOWNERS ACROSS THE ALLEY AND LET THEM KNOW
ABOUT YOUR SCHEDULE.
THAT WAY I DON'T HAVE TO GET THE PHONE CALLS AND YOU CAN
CREATE THE RELATIONSHIP.
THAT WAS A HUGE PROBLEM.
SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I MENTIONED THAT.
BUT THANK YOU.
5:52:58PM >> THANK YOU.
COUNCILWOMAN, THE ISSUE THAT WE HAVE WITH THE ALLEY, IT'S IN
YOUR CODE.
AND SO IT IS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT THAT YOU UTILIZE THE
ALLEY IF IT'S THERE.
AS I SAID, GOING FORWARD WITH THE CODE CHANGES, THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT REALLY SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.
BECAUSE SOME OF THE ALLEYS DON'T MEET TECHNICAL STANDARDS.
THIS IS A GOOD ONE.
5:53:21PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.
THIS IS A GOOD ONE.
YOU COULD HAVE NOT PUT AN OUTLET ON COLUMBUS AND ALLOWED,

AGAIN, INCENTIVIZING MORE WALKABILITY.
IT'S A BUSY STREET.
THAT WAS MY RECOMMENDATION.
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THE ALLEY
ACCESS OF SEEING -- WE'VE SEEN IT IN SOME -- YOU BROUGHT
SOME OF THOSE FORWARD IN LIKE THE WEST TAMPA AREA BECAUSE OF
THE DIFFICULTY PARKING ON THE STREET, BUT ALSO JUST, YOU
KNOW, AS WE MOVE FORWARD, AND THIS AREA ESPECIALLY IS A VERY
WALKABLE AREA.
IT'S GOING TO BECOME MORE WALKABLE.
AND THE FEWER CURB CUTS, THE SAFER IT IS FOR PEDESTRIANS,
CYCLISTS, PEOPLE WITH MOBILITY CHANGES.
AGAIN, JUST A RECOMMENDATION.
5:54:06PM >> THANK YOU.
I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENT.
5:54:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
I ALSO APPRECIATE THE FACT, UNDERSTANDING THE BACK OF
BUSINESS AND THE -- VISITOR PARKING NOT AS KEYED IN ON THAT.
ALSO THAT YOU WIDENED THE DRIVE.
YOU MADE IT MORE ACCOMMODATING.
YOU ASKED AND ANSWERED THAT QUESTION BEFORE YOU CAME TO US.
SO I APPRECIATE THAT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM?

5:54:31PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
MOVE TO CLOSE.
5:54:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCILMAN
MIRANDA.
SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE.
OPPOSED?
AYES HAVE IT.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
5:54:39PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THANK YOU.
AGAIN, I'LL READ MY RECOMMENDATION TO CHAT WITH THE
NEIGHBORS ACROSS THE ALLEY.
THEY WILL LOVE YOU IF YOU CAN GET TO KNOW THEM.
5:54:51PM >> IN YOUR MOTION, THE WAIVERS -- THE CORRECTIONS BETWEEN
FIRST AND SECOND READING.
5:54:56PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YES.
THANK YOU.

WE'RE CLIPPING ALONG WITH BREVITY IN MIND.
ITEM NUMBER 5, FILE REZ-25-17.
5:55:57PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YOU BETTER KNOCK ON THAT WOOD.
5:55:58PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I'M JUST REMINDING THEM.
[ LAUGHTER ]
BREVITY IS THE KEYWORD OF THE NIGHT.
5:56:05PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
STEPHANIE POPE, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
I'LL TRY TO BE AS BRIEF AS POSSIBLE.
AGENDA ITEM 5 IS REZ-25-17, REQUEST TO REZONE 7602 NORTH
NEBRASKA AVENUE FROM SEMINOLE HEIGHTS COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE
TO SEMINOLE HEIGHTS PD FOR RESIDENTIAL, SINGLE-FAMILY,
DETACHED AND ATTACHED USES.
WE'LL START WITH AN AERIAL VIEW OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND THE
SURROUNDING AREA.
YOU CAN SEE THE SUBJECT SITE IS OUTLINED IN RED, RIGHT HERE.

THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED ON THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF EAST
ROBINSON STREET AND NORTH NEBRASKA AVENUE.
THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA OF THE SUBJECT
SITE IS A MIX OF RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED AND
COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE AND COMMERCIAL GENERAL USES.
YOU CAN SEE THAT IT'S RESIDENTIAL HERE, COMMERCIAL
INTENSIVE, AND THERE IS THE COMMERCIAL GENERAL.
THERE IS ONE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT TO THE SOUTHWEST ALONG EAST
ROBSON.
REZ 21-100 APPROVED FOR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED
UNITS, WHICH IS RIGHT HERE.
AND THE COMMERCIAL GENERAL LOCATED ONE BLOCK TO THE SOUTH ON
EAST BROAD WAS APPROVED IN 2014.
THAT IS REZ-1406.
NEXT I WILL SHOW YOU THE SITE PLAN THAT IS PROVIDED BY THE
APPLICANT.
THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT SITE PLAN
IDENTIFYING SEVEN RESIDENTIAL FAMILY DETACHED AND ATTACHED
UNITS.
ALL STRUCTURES EXIST ON-SITE WITH EACH UNIT PROPOSED AS ONE
BEDROOM.
HERE ARE THE UNITS TWO THROUGH FOUR HERE.
THIS IS UNIT NUMBER ONE.
AND THIS IS NUMBER FIVE AND SIX THERE.
I KNOW THEY ARE LABELED A LITTLE DIFFERENT.

THE SITE IS DESIGNED WITH ONE POINT OF VEHICULAR ACCESS ON
EAST ROBSON STREET.
THAT IS HERE, WITH INGRESS FROM THE ALLEY ON THE WEST AND
ONE-WAY EGRESS GOING BACK ONTO EAST ROBSON.
THE APPLICANT PROPOSES FIVE FOOT WALKWAY CONNECTIONS TO THE
EXISTING SIDEWALK ON NEBRASKA AVENUE FOR UNITS TWO THROUGH
FOUR.
UNITS ONE, FIVE, SIX, AND SEVEN DO NOT HAVE A DEDICATED
WALKWAY CONNECTING TO THE PROPOSED FIVE FOOT SIDEWALK ON
ROBSON OR NORTH NEBRASKA AVENUE.
THE SITE PLAN IDENTIFIES PAVED DRIVE AISLE LOCATED BETWEEN
UNITS ONE AND FIVE HERE, AND THAT IS THE ONLY ACCESS THAT IS
PROVIDED FOR PEDESTRIANS.
STAFF HAS REQUESTED AND THE APPLICANT HAS AGREED TO PROVIDE
A WALKWAY CONNECTION TO THE ADJACENT SIDEWALKS SURROUNDING
THE SUBJECT SITE AND THAT IS AN EXTENSION OF THIS WALKWAY
HERE.
SO THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO THE BUS STOP ALONG NORTH
NEBRASKA.
SURFACE PARKING IS LOCATED ON THE WEST HERE, AND THERE IS
BICYCLE PARKING LOCATED HERE, AND A SPACE HERE, AND THEN
MOTORCYCLE PARKING HERE.
THE APPLICANT IS ALSO PROPOSING TO SAVE THE EXISTING 65-INCH
OAK, WHICH IS LOCATED IN THE CENTER OF THE SITE.
WHILE THE SITE REQUIRES MULTIPLE WAIVERS, THE UTILIZATION OF

THE EXISTING STRUCTURES AND THE PROPOSED SEVEN SINGLE-FAMILY
DETACHED AND ATTACHED ONE-BEDROOM UNITS PROVIDE AN
APPROPRIATE TRANSITION FROM THE SINGLE-FAMILY TO THE WEST TO
THE MORE INTENSIVE COMMERCIAL TO THE EAST ALONG NEBRASKA
AVENUE.
THE SITE IS ALSO LOCATED IN THE SEMINOLE HEIGHTS OVERLAY AND
MUST COMPLY WITH THE OVERLAY STANDARD AT THE TIME OF
PERMITTING.
NEXT I WILL SHOW YOU THE EXISTING STRUCTURES ON-SITE.
AND THESE ARE PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT.
THIS IS FACING SOUTH -- SOUTHEAST, LOOKING AT UNIT 6.
THIS IS FACING NORTHWEST LOOKING AT UNIT NUMBER 4.
THIS IS FACING WEST WITH UNIT ONE IN BROWN AND UNIT SEVEN TO
THE RIGHT OF THAT.
THIS IS FACING WEST WITH UNIT FOUR TO THE LEFT AND UNIT ONE
IN FRONT IN BROWN.
THIS IS FACING NORTHWEST, UNIT FOUR ON THE LEFT AND UNIT
SEVEN ON THE RIGHT.
AND THIS ONE IS FACING NORTH, UNIT FIVE ON THE LEFT AND
UNITS TWO AND ONE ON THE RIGHT.
THE LAST ELEVATION HERE IS FACING EAST.
UNIT 7 ON THE LEFT AND UNITS THREE AND FOUR ON THE RIGHT.
THESE ARE EXISTING BUILDINGS, SO THOSE ARE THE ELEVATIONS,
NO NEW STRUCTURES ARE BEING PROPOSED.
NEXT I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE SITE.

HERE IS A PHOTO LOOKING AT THE SITE ACROSS ROBSON.
THIS IS AN INTERNAL PHOTO OF THE SITE.
THIS IS ANOTHER INTERNAL PHOTO OF THE SITE.
THIS IS FROM THE SITE LOOKING SOUTH ACROSS ROBSON.
AND HERE IS A VIEW OF THAT BUILDING THAT IS SOUTH ON ROBSON
AND THEN LOCATED ON NEBRASKA.
THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH ACROSS ROBSON.
THIS IS WEST OF THE SITE.
NORTH OF THE SITE.
IT IS A VACANT COMMERCIAL.
THIS IS LOOKING EAST TOWARDS NEBRASKA.
THIS IS LOOKING ACROSS NEBRASKA FURTHER EAST THERE.
THIS IS LOOKING AT THE BUS STOP THAT IS ON NEBRASKA.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST DOWN ROBSON.
AND THIS IS LOOKING AT THE ALLEY THAT IS BEING UTILIZED FOR
THE ENTRANCE OFF OF ROBSON.
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION AND COMPLIANCE STAFF REVIEWED THE
APPLICATION AND FIND THE REQUEST TO BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE
LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
OVERALL, THERE ARE FIVE WAIVERS AS PART OF THIS REQUEST, AND
IF CITY COUNCIL APPROVES THE APPLICATION, THE MODIFICATIONS
TO THE SITE PLAN AS SHOWN ON THE SUBMITTED REVISION SHEET
MUST BE COMPLETED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
THESE REVISIONS WILL NOT RESOLVE THE INCONSISTENT FINDINGS
OF TRANSPORTATION AND URBAN DESIGN.

I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
6:02:14PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
NO QUESTIONS.
6:02:18PM >> I'LL TURN IT OVER TO QUINN WITH PLANNING COMMISSION.
6:02:26PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
STATE YOUR NAME FIRST.
6:02:29PM >> GOOD EVENING.
QUINN STEELE, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE CENTRAL PLANNING DISTRICT.
THE OLD SEMINOLE HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD AND SEMINOLE HEIGHTS
URBAN VILLAGE.
IT'S ALSO WITHIN EVACUATION ZONE E.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS HERE OUTLINED IN PURPLE AND DESIGNATED
COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 35.
TO THE NORTH, EAST, AND SOUTH IS ALSO COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL
35, WHICH IS ALONG NORTH NEBRASKA AVENUE, DESIGNATED TRANSIT
EMPHASIS CORRIDOR.
TO THE EAST AND FURTHER WEST, WE HAVE RESIDENTIAL 10.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE REQUEST AND FINDS
THE PROPOSAL WOULD PROVIDE COMPARABLE AND COMPATIBLE INFILL
DEVELOPMENT.
LAND USE POLICY 9.2.6 ENCOURAGES MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENTS TO
ORIENT FRONT DOORS TOWARD NEIGHBORHOOD SIDEWALKS AND
STREETS.
AS PROPOSED, UNITS TWO, THREE, AND FOUR, FACE AND CONNECT TO
EAST ROBSON STREET.

THE CURRENT DESIGN DOES NOT FULLY ALIGN WITH THE POLICY AS
THE FRONT DOOR UNITS FOR 1, 5, 6, 7 LACK CONNECTIONS TO THE
SIDEWALK OR STREET.
AS MENTIONED IN THE CITY'S PRESENTATION, THE APPLICANT HAS
AGREED TO ADD A PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION FOR UNITS 6 AND 7 TO
NORTH NEBRASKA AVENUE, WHICH WILL CONNECT TO THE ADJACENT
BUS STOP.
WHILE IT DOESN'T FULLY RESOLVE ALL PEDESTRIAN CONCERNS, THE
IMPROVEMENTS MEET THE INTENT OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND
POLICIES RELATED TO MIXED USE CENTERS AND CORRIDORS.
ADDITIONALLY, THE SITE WILL PROVIDE A NEW SIDEWALK ALONG
EAST ROBSON STREET AND PROVIDE ACCESS VIA THE ALLEY.
OVERALL, THE PROPOSED PLAN DEVELOPMENT WOULD PROVIDE
ADDITIONAL HOUSING OPTIONS WITHIN THE SEMINOLE HEIGHTS URBAN
VILLAGE AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LONG-RANGE DEVELOPMENT
PATTERN ENVISIONED UNDER CC-35 FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
AND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
6:04:09PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY QUESTIONS?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
APPLICANT, PLEASE.
6:04:15PM >> MY NAME IS CHRIS KAFER.
I DID HIRE DAVID WRIGHT AS MY AGENT FOR THE APPLICATION.
UNFORTUNATELY, HE DID FALL SICK AND HAD TO BE ADMITTED TO

THE HOSPITAL A LITTLE BIT EARLIER TODAY, UNFORTUNATELY.
I'M GOING TO DO THE BEST I CAN TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
AS YOU ALL KNOW, WE ARE IN DESPERATE NEED OF GOOD AFFORDABLE
HOUSING.
BY UTILIZING THESE EXISTING CHARMING BUILDINGS AT THE
PROPERTY, WE CAN PROVIDE SEVEN ONE-BEDROOM, LONG-TERM RENTAL
UNITS WITH OUTDOOR SPACES AT AFFORDABLE RATES BELOW THE
SECTION 8 AFFORDABLE HOUSING GUIDELINES.
WHILE KEEPING THE MAGNIFICENT GRAND OAK TREE AND KEEPING THE
LOOK OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
CAN I ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS?
6:05:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THAT'S ALL YOU GOT?
OKAY.
I LIKE THAT BREVITY.
YOU WERE LISTENING.
THAT'S GOOD.
I LIKE TO HEAR THAT.
COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
6:05:19PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE STREETS AND THE
WAY THEY FACE AND SO FORTH AND SO ON.
I DIDN'T CATCH ALL THAT.
I KNOW YOUR INDIVIDUAL DOING THE PRESENTATION IS NOT HERE.
DOING YEOMAN JOURNEY SO FAR.
6:05:33PM >> RIGHT.
PART OF THE CHALLENGE WITH THIS PROPERTY IS THAT A GOOD PART

OF IT IS BLOCKED BY THE NEWER BUS STATION ALONG NEBRASKA,
WHICH ALSO REALLY LIMITS THE COMMERCIAL USES OF IT AT THIS
POINT BECAUSE THE ENTRANCE IS ON ROBSON.
WE BASICALLY AGREED WITH PLANNING AND CITY PLANNING THAT WE
CAN PULL SIDEWALKS OUT TO NEBRASKA.
BASICALLY WE HAVE A LOT OF ACCESS TO THE BUS STATION AND
THEN ALSO PROVIDE A LOT OF COVERED PARKING FOR BICYCLES,
MOTORCYCLES.
6:06:05PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NOTHING WRONG WITH SEVEN ONE-BEDROOM
UNITS.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU MEET OTHER QUALIFICATIONS.
THE CITY HAD A PROBLEM BUT THE PLANNING COMMISSION DID NOT.
BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HEARD
THAT.
I THINK THERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU HAVE TO WORK OUT, IF IT
GOES THAT FAR.
I CAN'T SPEAK FOR THE OTHER FIVE.
6:06:24PM >> OKAY.
6:06:25PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IS THERE ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES
TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?

IT WAS A LOT TO GET THROUGH, BUT I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR
SAVING THE TREE AND REUSING -- THIS IS SOMETHING VERY
UNUSUAL.
I HOPE OTHER FOLKS COME AND TAKE A LOOK AND SEE WHAT YOU'VE
DONE.

YOU ALL ARE SO SIMPATICO AND REALLY IN LOVE AND YOU ENJOY
EACH OTHER'S COMPANY A LOT.
I CAN TELL THAT.
I AM SO GLAD THAT BOTH OF YOU ALL HAVE HAPPINESS WITH ONE
ANOTHER.
BECAUSE THAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT.
AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DO IT IN COUNCIL BECAUSE OF TIME

WHETHER IT IS OFF PREMISE.
COUNCIL MEMBER MANISCALCO, IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT, HAVE AT
IT.
06:19:11PM >>BRIAN SULLIVAN:
THIS WAS MORE THAN EMBARRASSING ENOUGH
FOR US.
THANK YOU.
06:19:14PM >>LUIS VIERA:

YOU ARE A GOOD GUY.
YOU WILL BE MISSED IN A LOT OF WAYS.

ATTORNEY MARTY SHELBY.
06:19:26PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
THANK YOU.
I WANT TO TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SAY THANK YOU.
I APPRECIATE ALL THAT YOU DO AND STAFF OF CCTV.
AND YOU HAVE BEEN WONDERFUL AND A GREAT RESOURCE FOR
COUNCIL.
I DON'T KNOW WHETHER THE PUBLIC REALLY APPRECIATES WHAT IT
TAKES TO BRING THIS INTO PEOPLE'S LIVES.

06:20:17PM >>LUIS VIERA:
I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT MR. SHELBY SAID
SOMETHING WHICH IS YOUR PATIENCE IN DOING THIS.
YOU HAVE GREAT PATIENCE.
TO QUOTE AXL ROSE, IT TAKES PATIENCE.
06:20:30PM >>BRIAN SULLIVAN:
GOOD THING IS YOU CAN'T HEAR WHAT WE ARE
SAYING IN THERE.
06:20:33PM >>LUIS VIERA:
I AM SURE.
[LAUGHTER]
06:20:36PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
YOU WOULD HAVE TO BLEEP MOST OF IT OUT.
I AM SURE.

TO THE NORTH AND SOUTH OF DALE MABRY IS RMU-100 AND

JUST OVER 12,000 SQUARE FEET RESULTING IN A F.A.R. WHICH IS
BELOW THE MAXIMUM OF A .25.
THE UMU IS FOR A CLINIC AND R-10 FOR STORMWATER AND GARBAGE

THE REQUEST IS ADAPTIVE REUSE OF AN EXISTING BUILDING,
SEVERAL WAIVERS DO NOT SUPPORT A PEDESTRIAN-FRIENDLY DESIGN,
SIDEWALK WIDTH, STREET TREES AND.
THESE ARE FOR IMPROVING WALKABILITY ALONG CORRIDORS LIKE
DALE MABRY HIGHWAY.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION WANTS THE APPLICANT TO CONSIDER THE

THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION AND I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY

06:29:29PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
NO QUESTIONS.
APPLICANT, PLEASE.
06:29:33PM >> KAMI CORBITT WITH THE LAW FIRM WITH HILL, WARD AND
HENDERSON.
I WILL KICK IT OFF, BUT TURN IT OVER TO MY ASSOCIATE
JAMIE MAIER WITH A BRIEF PRESENTATION.
I HAVE ANOTHER HEARING WITH THE COUNTY, AND I EXPECT I WILL
RECEIVE A TEXT IN THE MIDDLE OF PRESENTATION THAT I NEED TO
LEAVE.
SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE THAT ANNOUNCEMENT.
06:29:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WE ARE MORE FUN.
06:30:00PM >> YOU ARE.
THEY DID ACCOMMODATE ME AND MOVE ME TO THE END OF THE
AGENDA.
06:30:12PM >> GOOD EVENING, JAMIE MAIER WITH THE LAW FIRM OF HILL, WARD
AND HENDERSON.
I HAVE BEEN SWORN, AND I HAVE A POWERPOINT.
I WILL WAIT FOR A MOMENT TO SEE IF THAT IS BROUGHT UP UNLESS
I NEED TO DO SOMETHING MYSELF?
06:30:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THEY SHOULD BRING IT UP.
THEY ARE WORKING ON IT.
06:30:32PM >> I DO WANT TO EXPRESS MY CONDOLENCES OF COUNCIL.
HER ABSENCE IS FELT DOWN HERE.
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT IT IS LIKE UP THERE.
06:30:42PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WAITING FOR THE POWERPOINT PRESENTATION.
06:30:49PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
COMING OUT OF RETIREMENT.
[LAUGHTER]
IT IS COMING BACK TO ME SLOWLY.
06:31:02PM >>BILL CARLSON:
HE WAS TOO BUSY TALKING ABOUT US.
06:31:05PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ABOUT VIERA.
06:31:09PM >>BRIAN SULLIVAN:
COMPUTER WENT TO SLEEP.
THIS IS YOURS, I THINK?
06:31:22PM >> NO.
06:31:22PM >>BRIAN SULLIVAN:
THERE WE GO.
OKAY.
06:31:26PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT ABOUT THAT LAST NIGHT.
I SAID IT WOULD BE SO NICE IF --
06:31:44PM >> SO I WANT TOO THANK STAFF FOR EXCELLENT PRESENTATION.
I WILL TRY NOT TO REPEAT WHAT IS ALREADY SAID.
BAY CARE IS PROUD TO PURCHASE THIS SITE AT A KEY
INTERSECTION OF DALE MABRY AND KENNEDY.
AND THEY WILL BE REMODELLING IT AND REPURPOSING THIS
EXISTING BUILDING AND THE EXISTING LAYOUT OF THE SITE TO
HAVE A FREE-STANDING EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT TO SERVE THIS
COMMUNITY.
AND ESPECIALLY AT THIS INTERSECTION, THERE IS GOOD ACCESS
FOR MANY NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE AREA TO BE ABLE TO COME TO
THIS SITE.
IT IS ALSO WITHIN CLOSE PROXIMITY FOUR MILES AWAY FROM ST.
JOSEPH'S AND ST. JOSEPH'S CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL.
BECAUSE THIS IS A BAY CARE KIDS LOCATION.
SO ADULTS AND CHILDREN CAN BE TREATED HERE.
THIS FREES UP CRITICAL BEDS AT THOSE HOSPITALS BECAUSE
PROVIDES HIGH-QUALITY EMERGENCY CARE FOR ADULTS AND CHILDREN
WHEN THE DEGREE DOESN'T REQUIRE HOSPITALIZATION BUT REQUIRES
EMERGENCY CARE.
BAY CARE HAS A STRONG PRESENCE IN TAMPA AND PROVIDE SERVICES
AT OTHER LOCATIONS THEY OWN AND OPERATE.
URGENT CARE, SPORTS MEDICINE, PRIMARY CARE, OTHER SERVICES,
OUTPATIENT IMAGES OF MANAGING -- OH, NO, MY POWERPOINT.
OH, DEAR.
I HAVE IT IN PAPER FORM.
PLEASE INDULGE ME ONE MOMENT.
THIS IS WHY I ALWAYS COME PREPARED.
OKAY.
AND BAY CARE IS COMMITTED TO -- OBVIOUSLY COMMITTED TO SOUTH
TAMPA AND TAMPA AS A REGION AND COMMITTED TO BEING A GOOD
NEIGHBOR IN ALL OF THE CASES IT OPERATES.
A NEIGHBOR MEETING.
THE MEETING WAS SENT OUT TO EVERYBODY WITHIN THAT 200-FOOT
RADIUS, AS WELL AS THE PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS.
FOR THOSE FOLKS WHO WANTED TO PARTICIPATE BUT WEREN'T ABLE
TO BE AT THAT MEETING, THERE WERE ALSO INDIVIDUAL CALLS,
SCHEDULES, TEAM MEETING AND E-MAILS FOR PEOPLE WHO WANTED TO
PARTICIPATE.
TO OUR KNOWLEDGE, EVERYBODY WAS ABLE TO WEIGH IN ON THE
PROCESS.
THE MAIN TOPICS THAT CAME UP WERE SECURITY OF THE BUILDING
AND THE GROUND, TRAFFIC IMPACTS TO THE STREET TO THE SOUTH.
LIGHTS AND SIRENS OF AMBULANCES.
AND UPKEEP OF LANDSCAPING.
NEIGHBORS WERE PLEASED TO HEAR THAT BAY CARE HAD ALREADY
PLANNED AND ABSOLUTELY COMMITS HAVING 24-7 SECURITY GUARD
ASSIGNED TO THE SITE.
SO THAT WAS WELL RECEIVED.
ALSO, LIGHTING ON THE SITE WILL REMAIN AS IT IS.
SO LIGHTING WILL HAD BEEN THERE TO PROVIDE SECURITY AND
SAFETY, BUT WILL NOT BE ADDING ADDITIONAL LIGHTING AND NO
LIGHTING SHINING INTO THE HOMES ACROSS THE STREET.
THEY WILL BE REPLACING LANDSCAPING IN POOR HEALTH.
ADDING LANDSCAPING TO PERIMETERS AS REQUIRED AND ONLY
REMOVING THE TREES THAT STAFF IDENTIFIED AS IN NEED OF
REMOVAL.
WITH RESPECT TO TRAFFIC IMPACTS, THERE WON'T BE ANY NEW
IMPACT ON ROLAND STREET.
NO CURB CUT OR ACCESS TO ROLAND STREET AND WILL NOT BE
ADDING THAT WITH THE REQUEST.
THEY ARE REPURPOSING WHAT IS ALREADY THERE.
THE ACCESS POINTS THAT ARE ALREADY THERE ARE WHAT THEY ARE
GOING TO USE.
THE FREE-STANDING TRIP GENERATION RATE IS LOWER THAN THE
PREVIOUSLY CVS PHARMACY WITH A DRIVE-THRU RATE AND WILL
LOWER THE AMOUNT OF TRIPS FOR THE SITE.
FINALLY -- AND PLEASE NOTE THESE RENDERINGS ARE NOT FINAL
AND PART OF THE CONVERSATION THAT BAY CARE IS COMMITTED TO
HAVING WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
THE AMBULANCE CANOPY OF DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP OF THE PHARMACY
DRIVE-THRU PRESCRIPTION WINDOW AND SCREENING ON THE CANOPY.
THIS IS NOT FINAL AND BAY CARE IS COMMITTED WHEN THEY HIRE
AN ARCHITECT TO HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE NEIGHBORS AT
VARIOUS STAGES IN THE PROCESS.
I WANT TO NOTE WITH LIGHTS AND SIRENS OF AMBULANCES
REPRESENT LESS THAN 1% OF THE TRANSPORTS THAT BAY CARE CEASE
ON THEIR FREE-STANDING EMERGENCY ROOMS IN PINELLAS COUNTY.
REALLY THE LIGHTS AND SIRENS ARE ONLY GOING TO BE ON THOSE
TRANSPORTS THAT ARE ACTUALLY DOING A PICK-UP RATHER THAN A
DROP-OFF.
SO THEY ARE LEAVING THE SITE.
TAKING A PATIENT WHOSE NEEDED LEVEL OF CARE HAS EXCEEDED
WHAT THE FREE-STANDING EMERGENCY ROOM CAN DO, AND THEY HAVE
TO TAKE THEM TO THE HOSPITAL.
AGAIN, THAT REPRESENTS LESS THAN 1% OF THE TRANSPORTS COMING
TO AND FROM BAY CARE -- FROM THESE FREE-STANDING EMERGENCY
ROOMS.
YOU WILL NOT HAVE AMBULANCES ARRIVING WITH THEIR LIGHTS AND
SIRENS ON.
FOR EXAMPLE, IF THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT IN THE IMMEDIATE
VICINITY.
FIRST RESPONDERS WILL ASSESS THEIR TRAUMA LEVEL.
AND IF IT WARRANTS LIGHTS AND SIRENS, THEY WILL TAKE THEM TO
THE HOSPITAL AND WON'T TAKE THEM TO A FREE-STANDING
EMERGENCY ROOM BECAUSE THEY WILL NEED TO GO TO A HOSPITAL.
I WANT TO REITERATE NOT A REVOLVING DOOR OF LIGHTS AND
SIRENS.
BAY CARE HEARS THE NEIGHBORS AND UNDERSTAND THAT ANOTHER
DEGREE OF SCREENING WILL GO A LONG WAY TO ADDRESS THE
CONCERNS OF AMBULANCES THAT DO HAVE THE LIGHTS AND SIRENS.
PART OF THE CHANGE SHEET WE DISCUSSED WITH STAFF TO ADD A
NOTE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING GIVING BAY CARE THE
OPTION TO ADD A SIX-FOOT FENCE AND WALL THERE.
THE REASON WE ARE REQUESTING IT TO BE AN OPTION.
WE HEARD SOME NEIGHBORS THOUGHT A WALL OR A FENCE WOULD BE
BETTER.
OTHERS WANTED HEDGES AND ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING AND THOUGHT
THERE ARE NEGATIVES TO A FENCE OR WALL.
THAT CONVERSATION IS NOT DONE.
IF WE DON'T HAVE THE FENCE OR WALL ON A SITE PLAN, WE HAVE
TO COME BACK TO YOU.
IF WE DECIDE NOT TO HAVE IT, WE HAVE TO BRING BACK TO YOU IF
THE CONSENSUS FOR THE NEIGHBORS IS LANDSCAPING.
WE WANT TO ADD IN NOTE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING TO
DETERMINE IF THERE IS A MIX OF THE SCREENING OR SOME OTHER
KIND OF SCREENING WILL BE BEST HERE.
AS YOU HEARD FROM STAFF, WE HAVE RECEIVED FINDINGS OF
CONSISTENCY.
WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS, THESE ALL REPRESENT WAIVERS TO
ALLOW THE SITE TO REMAIN AS IT IS.
THIS IS INFILL REDEVELOPMENT.
THIS IS REPURPOSING OF EXISTING COMMERCIAL BUILDING STOCK,
URBAN DESIGN IN PARTICULAR TO REALLY OVERSEES THE WESTSHORE
OVERLAY DISTRICT MADE POSITIVE FINDINGS ON THE WAIVERS.
WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT THE WAIVERS BE APPROVED.
WE THINK THIS IS AN APPROPRIATE BENEFICIAL USE OF THIS SITE.
AND WE RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR COUNCIL'S APPROVAL AND WE ARE
HERE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
06:38:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL?
HEARING NONE.
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISH TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM.
IF YOU COME ALONG THE WALL AND WE WILL CALL YOU FIRST COME,
FIRST SERVE.
YES, SIR.
06:38:44PM >> GOOD EVENING.
BEFORE I MAKE FORMAL COMMENTS, I WANT TO WANT TO EXPRESS MY
CONDOLENCES WITH RESPECT TO COUNCILWOMAN HENDERSON.
SHE WAS A COLLEAGUE TO ALL OF YOU AND A DEAR FRIEND TO MOST
OF YOU.
I KNEW HER PERSONALLY.
AND AGAIN MY CONDOLENCES.
RAY WONG, SOUTH HIMES IN THE BON AIR NEIGHBORHOOD OF SOUTH
TAMPA.
I HAVE BEEN THERE APPROXIMATELY 20 YEARS.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT A EXTENT YOU HAVE PEOPLE SPEAKING IN
SUPPORT OF A PROJECT.
I CAN IMAGINE MOST OF THE TIME YOU HAVE PEOPLE SPEAKING
AGAINST A PROJECT, BUT I HAVE BEEN THERE LIKE I SAID 20
YEARS, SO I KNOW HOW THIS NEIGHBORHOOD HAS CHANGED.
IT HAS CHANGED TO A TYPE OF NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WE HAVE
FAMILIES WITH YOUNG KIDS MOVING IN.
WE HAVE RESTAURANTS AND SERVICES WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE.
AND IT IS REALLY -- WE HAVE FANTASTIC SCHOOLS, A-RATED
SCHOOLS WITHIN A VERY CLOSE PROXIMITY.
SO I FEEL THAT WE ARE INCREDIBLY LUCKY TO BE IN THAT
NEIGHBORHOOD.
I THINK THAT MAJOR COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR, BOTH KENNEDY AND
DALE MABRY HAS BEEN A POINT OF CONCESSION FOR SOME TIME.
I THINK PRIMARILY BECAUSE OF THE TRANSIENT NATURE OF SOME OF
BUSINESSES WHETHER IT IS, YOU KNOW, REVOLVING DOOR OF
RESTAURANTS OR, YOU KNOW, A VAPE SHOP OR A CANNABIS SHOP OR
WHATNOT.
I PERSONALLY FEEL THAT THIS WOULD BE A SIGNIFICANT
IMPROVEMENT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
WHEN I THINK OF BIGGEST AND BEST USE, I REALLY DO THINK THIS
TYPE OF PROJECT IS A TYPE OF PROJECT THAT WILL ADD VALUE,
NOT JUST TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT TO MY HOME, SPECIFICALLY.
SO I AM HAPPY TO SUPPORT THE PROJECT.
I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW A LOT OF DOCUMENTATION THAT
HAS BEEN PRESENTED TODAY, INCLUDING THE SITE PLANS AND THE
CIVIL INFORMATION.
AND I DO FEEL AS THOUGH A LOT OF ISSUES WITH REGARD TO SIGHT
LINES, PRIVACY, NOISE.
THERE HAS BEEN A GENUINE EFFORT TO ADDRESS THOSE CONCERNS.
SO I AM HAPPY TO SEE THAT.
I THINK PRIMARILY BASED ON -- ON SOME OF LANDSCAPING RELATED
STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THOSE CONCERNS.
BUT I DO FEEL AS THOUGH WHEN I THINK ABOUT THE CLIENT AND
SORT OF BEING A WELL-KNOWN ENTITY WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, I
FEEL AS THOUGH BAY CARE IS LIKELY TO BE A PARTNER TO THE
COMMUNITY AND TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
AND WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO -- TO
HELP ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS.
FOR THOSE REASONS AND OTHER REASONS, I DO SUPPORT THIS
PROJECT.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
06:41:25PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IS THAT BECAUSE IT IS A MODERN
INTERPRETATION OF BRUTALIST ARCHITECTURE?
06:41:31PM >> LET IT GO.
06:41:32PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I AM A FAN TOO.
06:41:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
JUST TO VERIFY, EVERYBODY HAS BEEN SWORN
IN.
EVERYBODY HAS BEEN SWORN IN?
NEXT PUBLIC SPEAKER, PLEASE.
06:41:41PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
I WOULD ECHO MR. WONG.
MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES OF THE LOSS OF COUNCILWOMAN
HENDERSON.
MURIEL MOORE, WEST PLATT STREET.
MY YOUNGER COUSIN AND HER HUSBAND BUILT A HOME ON WEST
ROLAND STREET DOWN THE STREET FROM THIS PROPOSAL.
I'M HERE IN OPPOSITION TO THIS.
I RESPECT BAY CARE'S POSITION IN THE COMMUNITY AND EFFORTS
TO MITIGATE THESE CONCERNS, IN MY VIEW, IT ISN'T ENOUGH.
AND MY BIGGEST CONCERNS FOR MYSELF ARE THE LIGHTS AND SIRENS
COMPONENTS.
I CERTAINLY, AGAIN, APPRECIATE THE MITIGATION, BUT I DO
THINK THAT IS VERY DISRUPTIVE IN A 24-7 FACILITY, THERE IS
REALLY -- THERE IS NOT ANYTHING THEY CAN DO ULTIMATELY WHERE
LIGHTS AND SIRENS ARE NEEDED AND WARRANTED.
THAT WILL HAPPEN AND A DISRUPTION TO THE RESIDENTIAL
NEIGHBORHOOD.
WE HAVE NEIGHBORS IN SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES AS YOU SAW LIVE
ACROSS THE STREET FROM THIS PROPOSAL.
BEYOND THAT AS WELL, THIS SITE, CONSIDERING THERE WILL BE
PARKING NEEDS FOR STAFFERS, DOCTOR AND NURSES, SECURITY,
CLEANING STAFF AND PATIENTS, I DON'T KNOW THAT THIS SITE CAN
ACCOMMODATE THAT.
WE ALREADY HAVE A LARGE ISSUE WITH ON-STREET PARKING IN THIS
NEIGHBORHOOD.
AND I AM CONCERNED, AND MY COUSIN LET ME KNOW SHE IS
CONCERNED OF THE POTENTIAL OF HAVING CARS PARKED ON ROLAND
AT ALL HOURS OF THE DAY AND NIGHT.
FINALLY, I WOULD POINT OUT THE SIDEWALKS ON KENNEDY AND DALE
MABRY ARE IMPORTANT.
THEY ARE USED HEAVILY.
EVERYONE CAN SEE THAT WHEN WE DRIVE DOWN THE ROADS.
A BUS STOP NEARBY ON KENNEDY THAT IS LITERALLY NEXT TO THIS
SITE.
THE PROSPECT OF NARROWING THOSE SIDEWALKS FOR ANY REASON
CREATE A SAFETY ISSUE AND CAUSES ME CONCERN.
FOR THOSE REASONS, I ASK THAT THIS PROJECT BE DENIED.
06:43:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
NEXT SPEAKER, PLEASE.
06:43:29PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
ROB PAN, 3612 WEST PLATT STREET.
I AM BEFORE YOU IN OPPOSITION TO THIS PROJECT WITH SIMILAR
REASONS AS MISS MOORE.
EXPANDING ON THEM.
I HAVE CONCERNS OF THE SAFETY ISSUES THAT ARE ASSOCIATED
WITH PRESENTING THIS PROJECT AND ULTIMATELY APPROVING THIS
PROJECT.
I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A TOUGH POSITION TO ARGUE FROM BECAUSE
ULTIMATELY WE ARE STANDING AGAINST A FREE-STANDING E.R. THAT
COULD SAVE PEOPLE AND THAT IS AN IMPORTANT PROJECT.
I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AND SAY, OH, I HATE IT BECAUSE IT
IS GOING TO MAKE MY LIFE WORSE.
BUT I WANT TO ASK THE COUNCIL TO CONSIDER THE PARTICULARIZED
IMPACTS THAT WE FACE AS RESIDENTS OF THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
REVIEWING THE STAFF REPORTS, REVIEWING WITH MY LIMITED
UNDERSTANDING OF THE CITY CODE, IT SEEMS THIS PROJECT IS IN
COMPLIANCE AND LIKELY WILL BE APPROVED.
BUT I ASK THAT YOU ALL CONSIDER THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS THAT
MAYBE AREN'T AS APPARENT.
MY CONCERN WITH SAFETY IS RELATED TO, YES, THEY HAVE 24-7
SECURITY.
IF THOSE PEOPLE WHO NEED TO BE ESCORTED OFF OF THE PROPERTY
FOR WHATEVER REASON ARE NOT GOING TO BE SUBJECTED TO ANY
SORT OF CRIMINAL PROSECUTION, THEY ARE JUST GOING TO BE
ASKED TO LEAVE THE PROPERTY AND I HAVE CONCERNS WHERE THEY
ARE GOING TO GO.
I SEE THE E.R. AS A POTENTIAL ATTRACTANT FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO
ARE EITHER IN CRISIS OR THAT HAVE SEVERE ISSUES.
AND I WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE THOSE PEOPLE WALKING AROUND AT
NIGHT IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD TO BE QUITE FRANK WITH YOU.
I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION IN THIS MATTER.
THANK YOU.
06:45:26PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
NEXT SPEAKER.
06:45:29PM >> GOOD EVENING, JEFFREY MARTEL, WEST HORATIO STREET.
I HAVE BEEN THE BON AIR PRESIDENT FOR TWO YEARS.
THANK YOU TO THE APPLICANT.
THEY DID A COMMUNITY OUTREACH MEETING LAST WEEK.
THEY SUBSEQUENTLY HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK WITH THEM ON
MONDAY, MYSELF IN PARTICULAR, AND OUR NEIGHBORHOOD
ASSOCIATION HAD A MEETING TUESDAY EVENING.
SO WHAT I'M HERE TO SPEAK TO THE COUNCIL ABOUT IS GENERALLY
WHAT THE FEEDBACK WAS FROM THAT NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION
MEETING ON TUESDAY.
AND I THINK, IN GENERAL, I KIND OF PUT THE COMMENTS INTO TWO
BUCKETS.
I THINK BUCKET ONE IS THOSE WITH PROXIMITY TO THE FACILITY
ITSELF.
I THINK THEY ARE CONCERN IS RELATIVE TO SCREENING, NOISE,
PARKING, ETC.
THEY MAKES A LOT OF SENSE.
BUCKET TWO BEING THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, IN GENERAL.
SO WE -- WE ARE THINKING OF BUCKET ONE.
THOSE FOLKS IN NEAR PROXIMITY TO THE USE.
SCREENING IN PARTICULAR IS -- IS A MAJOR CONCERN.
IT IS A 24-HOUR USE.
CVS WAS AN ACTIVE COMMERCIAL USE, BUT IT DID CLOSE AT 10
P.M. IT OPENED UP AT 6, 7 A.M.
I AM NOT SURE.
THIS IS A 24-HOUR FACILITY AND INTRODUCING AMBULANCES AND
OTHER ELEMENTS ALBEIT FROM A LAND USE PERSPECTIVE, THEY ARE
SIMILAR.
BUT FROM A NEARBY RESIDENT PERSPECTIVE, IT INTRODUCES
ANOTHER ELEMENT.
IT WAS MENTIONED BY THE APPLICANT'S ATTORNEY ABOUT
DISCUSSION WHETHER LANDSCAPING OR A FENCE OR A WALL MAKES
THE MOST SENSE.
THERE IS A REQUEST FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION FOR
EITHER A WALL OR A FENCE.
FURTHER DISCUSSION CAN CERTAINLY BE HAVE.
FROM THE SOUTHEAST CORNER, WHICH IF YOU WERE LOOKING AT THE
IMAGERY BELOW IS THE BOTTOM RIGHT, GOING WEST UP TO A POINT
THAT WAS EVEN TO THE BACK OF THE BUILDING.
OR THE EAST SIDE OF BUILDING.
FROM THAT POINT FORWARD, THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION ASKS
FOR A MORE ROBUST LANDSCAPING PLAN TO ESSENTIALLY CARRY IT
FORWARD TO THE -- TO THE DALE MABRY INTERSECTION.
AND SOMEWHAT OF A TWO OR THREE-FOLD REQUEST.
ONE IS JUST GENERAL SCREENING.
ON THE SITE, WE HAVE FOLKS THAT WILL LOOK ACROSS THE STREET
AND SEE THIS FACILITY 24-7.
TWO IS NOISE IN GENERAL.
ANY MITIGATION, THE FENCE, THE WALL, THE LANDSCAPING CAN DO,
ALBEIT MAYBE INFREQUENT, THE AMBULANCE DOES HAVE THEIR SIGH
LEN -- THE SIRENS ON.
IN BETWEEN -- I SEE 30 SECONDS.
WE HAVE KENNEDY, DALE MABRY, WEST -- YOU KNOW HENDERSON.
WE HAVE NOWHERE TO GO.
LEFT, RIGHT, NORTH, SOUTH, HOWEVER YOU LOOK.
WE ARE IN A POSITION WHERE ALL THE COMMERCIAL PARKING
ENCROACHES INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
SO IF ANYTHING THAT CAN TO DO MAKE IT LESS ATTRACTIVE TO
PARK ON ROLAND AND WALK INTO THE FACILITY.
I KNOW I AM ON A CLOCK, BUT REAL QUICK, THE SECOND ONE IS
TRAFFIC CALMING.
AGAIN, THREE MAJOR STREETS.
WE ALSO HAVE SWANN AND AZEELE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE.
WE ARE ASKING FOR A GENERAL AGREEMENT FROM THE APPLICANT TO
WORK WITH US RELATIVE TO TRAFFIC CALMING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
IN GENERAL.
06:48:47PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU VERY.
06:48:48PM >> THANK YOU.
06:48:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
APPLICANT, OPPORTUNITY FOR REBUTTAL?
06:48:55PM >> THANK YOU, AGAIN FOR THE RECORD, JAMIE MAIER WITH THE LAW
FIRM OF HILL, WARD AND HENDERSON REPRESENTING THE APPLICANT.
GOING THROUGH A BULLET POINT LIST TO ADDRESS COMMENTS.
PARKING.
WE ARE OVERPARKED.
THERE IS NO PARKING WAIVER ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SITE.
PARKING FOR STAFF.
PARKING FOR PATIENTS.
PARKING FOR VISITORS IS SATISFIED FOR THE CVS PARKING THAT
THEY ALREADY HAD SATISFIES THAT COMPLETELY.
AGAIN, ACCESS.
WE HAVE HEARD THE COMMENTS THAT, YOU KNOW, ROLAND STREET
WOULD SEE MORE TRAFFIC.
NOT ONLY ARE WE NOT -- THE ACCESS POINTS TO THE SITE ARE NOT
ON ROLAND STREET.
AND THE TRIP GENERATION IS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED FOR THIS
SITE OVERALL, SO WHILE IT IS A 24-7 USE, AS YOU SAW IN THAT
CHART, COMPARING A CVS PHARMACY DRIVE-THRU TO A
FREE-STANDING EMERGENCY ROOM, SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED TRIP
GENERATION RATE.
ALSO THAT DRIVE-THRU WINDOW WAS MORE LIKELY JUST FROM MY OWN
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH CVSs.
YOU HAVE A SPEAKER BLASTING OUT INTO ROLAND STREET.
I IMAGINE THAT CAUSED SOME DISRUPTION.
AND THAT IS A MUCH HIGHER TURNOVER RATE IN TERMS OF USING
THAT WINDOW.
BAY CARE DOES AND I THINK THE APPLICANT THEMSELVES CAN SPEAK
MORE TO THIS, BUT WE HAVE THE MEANS UNIQUELY TO ADDRESS
INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS.
THERE ARE HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE BEEN ON THE SITE NOW
IN ITS CURRENT CONDITION, AND BAY CARE HAS THE MEANS TO DO
THAT KIND OF ADDRESSING THE SITUATION.
SEE WHAT IS WARRANTED.
AND AGAIN THEY HAVE THE SECURITY ON THE SITE.
AND WE ARE ABSOLUTELY COMMITTED TO THE SCREENING, AGAIN.
THAT IS THE REASON OF HAVING THAT OPTIONALITY AND
FLEXIBILITY ON THE SITE PLAN SO WE CAN WORK THROUGH THAT
DURING THE SITE REVIEW PROCESS AND NOT HAVE TO COME BACK AND
ASK TO ADD A WALL OR ASK TO ADD, YOU KNOW, A WALL SOMEWHERE
ELSE, ETC.
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT BAY CARE IS 100% COMMITTED TO.
THEY ARE ALSO COMMITTED TO WORKING WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ON
OTHER ISSUES TO THE EXTENT THAT THEY CAN.
ROLAND STREET.
AGAIN, THEY HAVE NO IMPACT ON ROLAND STREET.
ROLAND STREET IS UNRELATED TO THIS PROJECT IN TERMS OF
TRAFFIC IMPACTS.
SO IT IS NOT -- IN THE ZONING CONTEXT, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO
TIE THIS SITE TO ROLAND STREET.
BUT, AGAIN, BAY CARE IS COMMITTED TO BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOR.
TO THE EXTENT THINGS THEY CAN DO OR WAYS THEY CAN HELP, THEY
WILL.
BUT NOT SOMETHING THAT WE CAN TIE TO A ZONING DISTRICT SITE
PLAN.
IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR US, MYSELF --
06:51:37PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON AND COUNCIL MEMBER
MANISCALCO.
06:51:39PM >>BILL CARLSON:
YEAH, TWO THINGS.
IS IT -- YOU SAID ALL OF THAT.
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT -- THAT YOU COULD MEET WITH THE
NEIGHBORHOOD LEADERS AGAIN AND THEN POTENTIALLY COME BACK
WITH SOME IDEAS AT SECOND READING?
06:51:55PM >> YES, WE WILL.
06:51:56PM >> YES, DEFINITELY.
06:51:58PM >>BILL CARLSON:
I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE VERY PHILANTHROPIC.
IF YOU CAN DO THAT THAT WOULD BE BETTER.
I KNOW THE SENSITIVITIES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
I WASN'T ON COUNCIL BUT WHEN THE CVS CAME, THE DRIVE-THRU
AND THE LIGHTS -- YOU ARE BRINGING UP ISSUES 10 TO 15.
THIS IS NOT A ZONING ISSUE BUT SINCE RAY IS IN THE AUDIENCE,
THE BIGGEST MOST PARTISAN GATEWAY TO SOUTH TAMPA.
WHEN YOU ALL DESIGN THAT, PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND.
I KNOW YOU NEED TO DO YOUR BRANDING, BUT IT IS THE GATEWAY
TO SOUTH TAMPA SO THANK YOU.
06:52:36PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER MANISCALCO.
06:52:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
YOU KNOW, THE CONCERNS OF THE NEIGHBORS REGARDING NOISE IS
-- IS SOMETHING THAT I WOULD TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY.
BECAUSE I LIVE ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE OTHER BAY CARE,
THE MAIN HOSPITAL.
MY BEDROOM WINDOW FACES THE EMERGENCY ROOM ENTRANCE.
AND I HEAR DAY AND NIGHT AMBULANCES AND FIRE TRUCKS AND
EVERYBODY ELSE GOING DOWN THIS BUSY STREET.
AND THEN THE TRAUMA HELICOPTER OFTEN FLIES RIGHT OVER US.
I KNOW YOU DON'T HAVE A HELICOPTER HERE, BUT I GET THE BRUNT
OF IT.
AND THE BENEFIT I HAVE IS GOD FORBID ANYTHING HAPPENS, I CAN
PROBABLY WALK TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM FASTER THAN I CAN GET AN
AMBULANCE THERE.
THAT -- COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON SAID THE GATEWAY TO TAMPA
DALE MABRY AND THAT INTERSECTION.
EMERGENCY ROOM FACILITIES WHEN SECONDS COUNT, THE POLICE,
THE AMBULANCE, THE FIRST RESPONDERS ARE MINUTES AWAY.
TO GET TO DAVIS ISLAND, TO GET TO TAMPA GENERAL IS -- IT IS
-- YOU KNOW, IT'S -- IT IS ISOLATED.
YOU HAVE TO CROSS THE BRIDGE TO GET THERE.
TO GET TO ST. JOE'S.
WE ARE ON HABANA AND MLK.
FARTHER THIS WAY.
I DON'T KNOW OF ANY OTHER FACILITIES LIKE THIS THAT ARE
NEARBY.
I AM SURE I AM WRONG IN THIS, BUT IT IS -- IT IS LIKE RIGHT
IN THE HEART OF TAMPA.
SO, YOU KNOW, IN CASE SOMEBODY DOES HAVE AN EMERGENCY
INSTEAD OF HAVING TO GET TO ONE OF THE BIG MAIN HOSPITALS,
THEY HAVE SOMETHING RIGHT THERE.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME, BEING THAT I EXPERIENCE THIS ON A
DAILY BASIS, ALL THE AMBULANCE NOISE, IT IS CONSTANT.
THAT IS WHY -- MAYBE THAT IS WHY I HAVE TROUBLE SLEEPING
BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN UP SINCE 2:00 THE LAST THREE DAYS.
AND I HAVE REPLACEMENT WINDOWS THAT I JUST BOUGHT.
SO I AM TRYING TO MAKE MY WIFE HAPPY BECAUSE I CAN DEAL WITH
IT, BUT I HAVE A WIFE.
06:54:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.
06:54:34PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WELL, I AM TRYING.
ANYWAY, WITH THE CURBS THAT THE NEIGHBORS HAVE.
YOU DID MENTION -- YOU ARE NOT ASKING A WAIVER WITH PARKING.
YOU ARE OVERPARKED, YOU SAID.
THAT MAY NOT BE AN ISSUE.
THIS IS NOT A FULL-SIZED HOSPITAL SO YOU MAY NOT HAVE THAT
BUSY TRAFFIC COMING IN AND OUT.
AT THE SAME TIME, HAVING THE OPTION OF SOME KIND OF
BUFFERING, LANDSCAPING, WALL, ANYTHING, BECAUSE IT DOES
HELP, YOU KNOW.
AND, AGAIN, MYSELF LIVING ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE
HOSPITAL, I GET THE BRUNT OF IT.
AS COUNCILMAN CARLSON MENTIONED, IF YOU WILL REACH OUT TO
THE COMMUNITY BEFORE FIRST AND SECOND READING, BUT HAVING
THAT OPTION OF, AS YOU ALREADY MENTIONED, DOING SOMETHING,
WHATEVER CAN HELP MITIGATE.
AND THEN ALSO REGARDING PEOPLE THAT ARE GETTING DISCHARGED
FROM THE HOSPITAL.
VERY, VERY FEW INSTANCES -- NO ONE HAS EVER COME TO OUR
PROPERTY.
WE HAVEN'T HAD SOMEBODY PASS OUT ON ITS SIDEWALK ON THE MAIN
ROAD REGARDING PEOPLE THAT ARE JUST LEAVING THE HOSPITAL
WITH NOWHERE TO GO.
KNOCK ON WOOD.
I NEVER HAD AN ISSUE.
NOBODY HAS BROKEN INTO A CAR.
NOTHING LIKE THAT.
JUST FROM MY EXPERIENCE, YOU KNOW.
I WANT TO PUT THAT OUT THERE.
THANK YOU.
06:55:44PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:55:48PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THANK YOU.
AS A NEIGHBORHOOD -- WHEN I WAS A NEIGHBORHOOD LEADER BEFORE
THIS, I HAD A LOT OF THESE ISSUES WITH COMMERCIAL BACKING UP
TO RESIDENTIAL.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT FELT IN SOME INSTANCES -- I KNOW YOU
ASKED FOR A SIX-FOOT FENCE.
BUT I WOULD -- AND I KNOW THIS ISN'T QUITE CODE, BUT I WOULD
-- I WOULD ENCOURAGE AN EIGHT-FOOT FENCE.
IF -- IF WE COULD PUT THAT.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT HAS TO BE ON THE SITE PLAN.
BUT I DO BELIEVE AN EIGHT-FOOT FENCE DOES A MUCH BETTER JOB
AT LIGHT DISTRIBUTION -- OR KEEPING THE LIGHT AWAY.
SO IF -- AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THE NEIGHBORHOOD DOES WANT A
FENCE.
AND I WOULD ALSO PROBABLY RECOMMEND A CONCRETE BLOCK FENCE,
AGAIN, THAT -- THAT WORKED BETTER FOR US AS A NEIGHBORHOOD.
IT MIGHT NOT WORK FOR STORMWATER AND FOR OTHER REASONS, BUT
IT WAS SIGNIFICANT BARRIER.
AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD -- THE NEIGHBORS DID LIKE THAT.
THE OTHER THING I WANTED TO MAKE SURE -- BECAUSE I HAD A
QUESTION ABOUT THIS TOO.
ONE OF THE -- ONE OF THE PUBLIC COMMENTS WAS ABOUT
SIDEWALKS.
AND I HAD TO ASK BECAUSE I THOUGHT THE SAME THING, THAT THE
SIDEWALK WAS BEING REDUCED, BUT FROM MY UNDERSTANDING THE
SIDEWALK IS STAYING THE SAME SIZE, IT IS JUST NOT EXPANDING
TO THE CURRENT CODE.
06:57:17PM >> CORRECT.
06:57:18PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
NOTHING ABOUT THE CURRENT SIDEWALK WILL
CHANGE.
06:57:21PM >> RIGHT.
THAT'S CORRECT.
06:57:22PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME AS WELL, BECAUSE WE
WANT PEOPLE -- THIS IS FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE, A WALKABLE
AREA.
I WOULD PREFER TO HAVE THE TEN-FOOT SIDEWALK, BUT BECAUSE
THIS IS A REUSE AND NOT A REBUILD, IMPLORE AMENABLE TO
KEEPING WHAT IT IS -- I AM MORE AMENABLE OF KEEPING WHAT IT
IS.
AND I WILL ALSO AGREE WITH MY COLLEAGUES THAT -- OR BEFORE I
GO TO THAT.
ANOTHER THING THAT REALLY DOES HELP -- AND I KNOW YOU ALL
COMMITTED TO IT ALREADY, WAS THE LANDSCAPING.
TRULY HAVING A LANDSCAPE PLAN THAT YOU WORK ON WITH THE
NEIGHBORHOOD.
IT MIGHT BE GREAT WITH YOUR MEETING.
IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE GOING TO DO A MEETING BETWEEN FIRST
AND SECOND MEETING TO BRING SOME RENDERINGS THAT MIGHT HELP
SHOW WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE.
AGAIN --
06:58:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
CAN I SUGGEST IF WE APPROVE THIS WE HAVE A
STIPULATION THAT LANDSCAPE PLAN INCLUDED BETWEEN FIRST AND
SECOND READING.
06:58:20PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN DO THAT IN TWO WEEKS
OR THREE WEEKS, BUT WE CAN ASK.
BUT -- I JUST LOST MY TRAIN OF THOUGHT.
06:58:28PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YOU MAY WANT TO ASK STAFF FOR LEGAL IF THAT
IS A REQUIREMENT OF THE LANDSCAPE PLAN AT THIS POINT.
06:58:41PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
CAN WE MAKE IT A REQUIREMENT.
06:58:43PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
MA NIGHT NOT BE ENOUGH TIME BETWEEN FIRST
AND SECOND READING.
WHEN IS SECOND READING, JULY 17?
06:59:05PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THE REASON I SAY THAT IS BECAUSE OFTENTIMES A
PROPERTY LIKE A CVS WHICH IS A NATIONAL CHAIN, THE -- THE
LANDSCAPING CAN BE NEGLECTED OVER TIME.
BUT WITH A LOCAL BUSINESS, IDEALLY, NOT ONLY WILL THE NEW
LANDSCAPING REALLY IMPROVE IT, BUT THE ABILITY TO MAINTAIN
IT A LITTLE BIT BETTER BY BEING A LOCALLY OWNED BUSINESS IS
IN MY EXPERIENCE PREFERABLE.
OKAY.
06:59:40PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ASK AND YOU SHALL RECEIVE.
06:59:42PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
OKAY.
THIS IS THE LANDSCAPE PLAN.
06:59:45PM >> ERIN MAHER, LAND DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
TWO LOCATIONS WHERE IS A FENCE OR WALL WILL BE REQUIRED BY
CODE NEXT THE RESIDENTIAL OR ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE
RESIDENTIAL OF A LOT THE SOUTH.
TEN-FOOT MASONRY WALL, THAT IS A FAVOR AND NATURAL RESOURCES
WOULD SUPPORT IT.
THEY CAN ADD THAT WAIVER BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING.
AND IF THEY WANTED TO MAKE THE WALL LARGER DOWN HERE, I
THINK THEY WERE GOING TO DO A FENCE PARTICULARLY FOR THE
EXISTING TREES, BUT, AGAIN, THEY CAN REQUEST TO MAKE THAT
FENCE TALLER AND REQUEST A WAIVER.
07:00:29PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SO WHAT WE CAN DO IS -- I WOULD SUPPORT
PUTTING THAT WAIVER THERE AND THEN LETTING YOU DECIDE WITH
THE COMMUNITY BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING WHAT THEY
WOULD LIKE TO SEE.
THAT WAY IF WE -- IF WE HAVE TO RESCIND THE WAIVER AT SECOND
READING WE CAN.
AND IF NOT, GREAT, YOU HAVE IT.
07:00:48PM >> SORRY BECAUSE THERE WAS A LOT OF THE TALKING WITH ME AND
TO ME, COULD YOU JUST FOR MY OWN -- RESTATE WHAT THE WAIVER
EXACTLY IS?
BECAUSE WE WERE TALKING ABOUT --
07:01:00PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
A MASON --
07:01:05PM >> ERIN MAIER.
THE CODE REQUIRES A 15-FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER BETWEEN USES.
SO 15-FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER BETWEEN USES NEXT TO THE
RESIDENTIAL ON THE EAST SIDE AND A SIX-FOOT-TALL MASONRY AND
WAIVING IT TO EIGHT-FOOT-TALL MASONRY WALL.
AND THE WAIVER ACROSS THE STREET FROM RESIDENTIAL AND
REQUIRES A FIVE-FOOT WALL -- FIVE-FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER.
SIX-FOOT MASONRY WALL.
IF THEY WANT TO MAKE THAT TALLER, THEY COULD REQUEST A
WAIVER THERE.
07:01:44PM >>SUSAN JOHNSON-VELEZ:
SUSAN JOHNSON-VELEZ, LEGAL
DEPARTMENT.
A WAIVER TO INCREASE THE WALL HEIGHT FROM SIX FEET TO EIGHT
FEET.
07:01:51PM >> AND OBVIOUSLY --
07:01:56PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I WOULD ENCOURAGE WAIVING THE WALL FROM SIX
FEET TO EIGHT FEET IN THE APPROPRIATE PLACES.
CLOSER TO DALE MABRY YOU WOULDN'T WANT THE WALL THAT HIGH
FOR VISIBILITY AND OTHER REASONS.
AGAIN IN SOME OF -- I THINK IT WOULD BE PRETTIER TO HAVE AN
IRON OR METAL FENCE.
I WILL PUT THE WAIVER IN.
AND THAT WAY YOU ALL CAN DISCUSS WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHAT
WOULD BE BEST.
IS THAT FAIR?
07:02:24PM >> GIVES US THE TO OPTION TO WORK WITH THEM TO DECIDE IF IT
NEEDS TO BE ALONG THE -- YOU KNOW WHERE EXACTLY AND ALL OF
THAT?
07:02:30PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
CORRECTED.
07:02:31PM >> ALONG THE ENTIRE EASTERN BOUNDARY WOULD BE SUPPORTED?
07:02:36PM >> OKAY, PERFECT.
07:02:36PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
07:02:39PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
MISS HURTAK, YOU TOOK CARE OF 100% OF
WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY.
MR. GUIDO TALKED OF THE NORTH SIDE OF WHERE HE LIVES.
I LIVE ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
HE HAS THE MAIN HOSPITAL.
I HAVE THE WOMEN'S HOSPITAL.
WHAT HIS GOING TO SAY IS I BELIEVE WHEN THAT CAME UP YEARS
AGO TO -- TO BUILD THE PARKING LOT OR THE EXTENSION, YOU
HAVE THE WOMEN'S HOSPITAL, ST. SAYS BELL AND LAKE.
BETWEEN LAKE AND ST. SAYS BELL THEY BUILT A CHAIN ALONG
EAST, WEST AND NORTH.
ALONG THE SOUTH PART, I BELIEVE THERE IS A WALL.
I DON'T KNOW SIX FOOT OR EIGHT FOOT.
I DON'T LOOK AROUND FOR WALLS ALL DAY LONG.
I CAN TELL YOU IT HAS NOT BOTHERED ME ONE BIT.
TRUTHFUL, WE MADE AN ARRANGEMENTS WHERE THEY DONATED SOME OF
THE LAND BETWEEN THAT FENCE AND THE CITY RIGHT-OF-WAY.
AND THEY BUILT LIKE A LINEAR PARK.
THE CITY MAINTAINS IT.
THAT IS WHAT -- THE PEOPLE DO USE IT TO WALK ON ALL THE WAY
AROUND THAT WHOLE AREA.
SO IT HAS BEEN A SITUATION BETWEEN ENTITIES OF NEIGHBORHOOD
AND THE HOSPITAL WHO WORKED IN UNISON TO GET IT DONE.
I WAS NOT IN FAVOR OF IT FOR OTHER REASONS, BUT NOT FOR THE
PARK THAT IS THERE.
AND SO I CAN ONLY TELL FROM YOU EXPERIENCE OF WHAT HAPPENED
IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD OR WHERE I LIVE WITH THE SAME TYPE OF
HOSPITAL.
UP UNTIL NOW, WE HAD NO PROBLEMS AT ALL WITH ST. JOSEPH'S
HOSPITAL, THAT I KNOW OF.
07:04:09PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HEARING NO OTHER QUESTIONS.
MOTION TO CLOSE.
