MR. COLLINS.
05:12:16PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
DANNY COLLINS WITH YOUR PLANNING COMMISSION
STAFF.
TODAY .I WILL BE PRESENTING TA/CPA25-03.
THIS IS THE FIRST ADOPTION PUBLIC HEARING FOR THIS ITEM.
AND THIS IS RELATED TO THE CDB PERIPHERY BONUS SPECIFICALLY
IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT CRA BOUNDARIES.
JUST A QUICK BACKGROUND, THE PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEWED
THIS REQUEST, AND THEY TOOK ACTION ON MAY 12, 2025.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED THAT THE REQUEST BE FOUND
CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ON JULY 31.
THE CITY COUNCIL REVIEWED THE REQUEST AND VOTED TO TRANSMIT
THE REQUEST TO THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE.
AND THEN TODAY, WE ARE HERE FOR THE FIRST ADOPTION OF THE --
FIRST ADOPTION PUBLIC HEARING FOR THIS ITEM.
I JUST WANT TO KIND OF GO OVER THE REQUEST BRIEFLY.
THIS IS A PRIVATELY INITIATED AMENDMENT.
IT SEEKS CHANGES TO THE CDB PERIPHERY BONUS IN THE CHANNEL
DISTRICT OF JANUARY 1, 2025.
CURRENTLY, PROJECTS IN THE CDB PERIPHERY ARE LIMITED TO 100%
OF THE MAXIMUM DENSITY AND INTENSITY.
AS PROPOSED, PROBLEMS IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT CRA IS UP TO A
200% INCREASE OF INTENSITY AND DENSITY BEFORE THE F.L.U.
MAXIMUM, DOUBLING THE CDB PERIPHERY BONUS WITHIN THE DISTRICT.
EVERY DEVELOPMENT MUST MEET SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTS IN 27-140
OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
SO FOLLOWING THE JULY 31 HEARING, WE TRANSMITTED THIS ITEM
TO THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AND THE STATE REVIEWING
AGENCIES.
WE RECEIVED COMMENTS BACK THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE,
FLORIDA DEP, AND FDOT.
YOU SHOULD HAVE THOSE COMMENTS.
WE SENT THEM -- WE TRANSMITTED THOSE ON SEPTEMBER 10.
FLORIDA COMMERCE DID HAVE SOME CONCERNS WITH THE REQUEST.
THEY RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY NOT ADOPT THE PROPOSED
AMENDMENT.
AGAIN, YOU SHOULD HAVE THOSE COMMENTS.
AND WITH THAT, THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
AND, OH, THE APPLICANT HAS SUBMITTED A RESPONSE LETTER TO
THOSE DOC COMMENTS, AND YOU SHOULD ALSO HAVE THEM AS WELL.
WITH THAT, THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION AND AVAILABLE FOR
ANY QUESTIONS.
05:14:57PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
DOES COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
05:14:59PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YES.
05:15:00PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
05:15:02PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THANK YOU.
YOU SAID THAT -- YOU SAID THAT THE BOUNDARIES WERE AS OF JULY
1, 2025.
IN THE AGENDA, IT SAYS JANUARY 1.
05:15:14PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
NO, JANUARY 1, 2025.
MY MISTAKE.
05:15:24PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
JUST DOUBLE CHECKING.
05:15:25PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION.
OKAY, APPLICANT.
05:15:30PM >> GOOD EVENING, TRUETT GARNER, 400 ASHLEY DRIVE.
05:15:41PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
IF I CAN, IT WAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION
THAT THE TIMER IS NOT WORKING TONIGHT.
WHAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU, THE RED, GREEN AND YELLOW --
05:15:50PM >> I DON'T PLAN TO GO MORE THAN 15 MINUTES.
05:15:52PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
YOU WOULD HAVE YOUR NORMAL 15 MINUTES.
AND MEMBERS OF PUBLIC, YOU WILL HAVE THREE MINUTES.
AND THAT INDICATION WILL COME FROM THE CLERK.
BE MINDFUL THAT THE TIMER DOESN'T WORK, BUT WE WILL BE
ADHERING TO THE STANDARD THREE-MINUTE RULE FOR PUBLIC
COMMENT.
THANK YOU, SIR.
05:16:08PM >> TRUETT GARDNER, ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT.
DANNY WAS DOING GREAT JOB TRACKING WITH MY PRESENTATION.
AS HE MENTIONED, WE RECEIVED COMMENTS BACK FROM THE STATE.
THEIR MAIN POINT IS THEY VOICED CONCERNS OF POTENTIALLY
ADVERSELY IMPACTING HURRICANE EVACUATION ROUTES.
WE RESPONDED TO THEM.
WE POINTED OUT THE PROXIMITY OF THE CHANNEL DISTRICT TO
THE CDB AND WATER DISTRICT ONE LIMITED DENSITY.
FURTHER, WE PROVIDED INFORMATION HOW THE CHANNEL DISTRICT IS
UNIQUE AND OVER FIVE HURRICANE EVACUATION ROUTES WITHIN A
MILE.
YOU MIGHT RECALL FROM OUR TRANSMITTAL HEARING, WE ENTERED
THIS INTO THE RECORD.
THAT WILL SHOW -- THERE IT IS.
POINTING OUT THOSE EVACUATION ROUTES.
AND WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY COMMENTS BACK FROM THE STATE;
HOWEVER, IN RESEARCHING THIS FURTHER, AND THIS IS WHERE IT
GETS REALLY CURIOUS, WE FOUND COMMENTS ON OUR REQUEST FROM
THE FDOT.
SO IT WAS FLORIDA COMMERCE THAT ISSUED THE LETTER TALKING
ABOUT HURRICANE EVACUATION ROUTES ON STATE ROADS.
FDOT, WHO IS THE REVIEWING AGENCY FOR STATE ROADS, FOUND
-- AND ADDIE IS PUTTING THIS UP AS WELL, AND FDOT SAID
OUR REPORT HAS NO IMPACT ON STATE RESEARCH FACILITIES
WITHIN ITS JURISDICTION.
THE TWO DIRECTLY CONFLICT.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE FLORIDA COMMERCE
DEPARTMENT.
WE FEEL WE ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH TAMPA'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
AND WITH THE APPLICABLE STATE STATUTES.
ULTIMATELY, WE FEEL THIS IS THE DECISION OF CITY COUNCIL.
IT IS CLEAR IN THE STATUTES THAT DEFERENCE IS GIVEN TO THE
LOCAL JURISDICTION.
AS YOU FOUND BEFORE UNANIMOUSLY, THIS SHOULD BE SUPPORTED,
WE WOULD HOPE THE SAME, BUT WE ARE HERE TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS THAT YOU BELIEVE.
KEN WANTS TO SPEAK BRIEFLY AS WELL EVEN THOUGH HE SPOKE THIS
MORNING.
05:18:10PM >> KEN STOLTENBERG, KENNEDY BOULEVARD IN THE CHANNEL
DISTRICT.
EVERYTHING I SAID THIS MORNING, I JUST CONFIRM THAT HERE.
THAT'S ALL.
I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO ASK UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY OTHER
QUESTIONS.
05:18:31PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
DOES COUNCIL HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS
FOR THE APPLICANT?
COUNCIL MEMBER CHARLESTON?
ANYONE IN THE PUBLIC WISH TO SPEAK TO AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 2?
05:18:43PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
MOVE TO CLOSE.
05:18:46PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOVE TO CLOSE -- WE HAVE A MOTION FROM
COUNCIL MEMBER MANISCALCO TO CLOSE.
SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA.
ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
OPPOSED.
AYES HAVE IT.
COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
05:18:55PM >>BILL CARLSON:
I THINK IN LOOKING AT THE LETTER FROM
FLORIDA COMMERCE, THE FOLKS SOUTH OF GANDY HOPE THAT IS AN
EXCUSE NOT TO BUILD IN CERTAIN AREAS.
BUT THE -- I THINK THE ARGUMENT THAT TRUETT MADE IN THE
LETTER IS SUFFICIENT TO DESCRIBE HOW THIS AREA IS
PARTICULARLY UNIQUE.
AND ALSO INCLUDED -- I DON'T KNOW IF YOU MENTIONED THIS
RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE VERY FEW EMPTY SPOTS AND VERY FEW SPOTS
THAT CAN BE REDEVELOPED.
FEW FOUR-STORY BUILDINGS.
BUT IT IS MOSTLY DEVELOPED ALREADY.
AND WITH THE ACCESS TO MOVE OUT EASILY, IT'S TOTALLY
DIFFERENT THAN ON A PENINSULA IN SOUTH TAMPA AND MANY
OTHER AREAS THAT MIGHT FLOOD.
SO I AM IN FAVOR OF THIS.
IF THE STATE PUSHES BACK, IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHY
CONSIDERING THOSE ARGUMENTS.
THANK YOU.
05:19:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANYBODY ELSE?
I AM IN AGREEMENT.
I GOT THIS -- THE LETTER FROM THE STATE.
IT SEEMS INCONSISTENT WITH WHAT I HAVE SEEN COME OUT OF
TALLAHASSEE.
IT IS REALLY INTELLECTUALLY INCONSISTENT.
I HAD THAT BRIEFING WHEN I WAS SPEAKING WITH THE CITY
ATTORNEYS TOO.
I AM CURIOUS IF THIS IS A ONE-OFF.
AND IF WE CHALLENGE AND PUSH FORWARD, WHAT THEIR RESPONSE
WILL BE.
BUT I AM WILLING TO CONTINUE ON THE COURSE THAT WE HAD
PREVIOUSLY SET.
05:20:17PM >>BILL CARLSON:
JUST ONE MORE THING.
WE, AS CITY COUNCIL, DON'T TURN DOWN THAT MANY -- I THINK
LESS THAN 3% OF PROJECTS, BUT EVERY TIME WE DO, PEOPLE SAY
YOU ARE ANTI-DEVELOPMENT, ANTI-DEVELOPMENT.
SOME AREAS IN THE CITY DON'T WANT DEVELOPMENT.
SOME AREAS THAT DO.
THIS AREA, AS WE KNOW, WAS -- HAD DIFFERENT RULES THAT IT
TURNED OUT BECAUSE OF EXCEPTIONS WERE CHANGED.
SO IT MAKES SENSE TO CHANGE THE RULES OVER THERE, AND ALLOW
MORE DENSITY WHERE PEOPLE WANT IT INSTEAD OF PUSHING DENSITY
WHERE PEOPLE DON'T WANT IT.
05:20:57PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILMAN CARLSON, WOULD YOU LIKE TO TAKE
NUMBER TWO, PLEASE.
05:21:02PM >>BILL CARLSON:
SURE.
I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE FILE NUMBER TA/CPA25-03, ORDINANCE
PRESENTED FOR FIRST READING CONSIDERATION.
WHAT?
05:21:13PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HE SECONDED IT.
05:21:14PM >>BILL CARLSON:
ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN FUTURE LAND USE SECTION TO OFFER AN ADDITIONAL BONUS
FOR PROJECTS LOCATED WITHIN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT AREA CRA BOUNDARIES AS OF JANUARY 1, 2026.
PROVIDING FOR ALL ORDINANCES, PROVIDED FOR SEVERABILITY,
AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
05:21:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA, I WOULD LIKE TO
TAKE YOUR SECOND, BUT YOU WERE BEATEN BY COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA 05:21:41PM WITH A WHISPER.
05:21:41PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I CHALLENGE IT, BECAUSE I DIDN'T HEAR THE SECOND.
[LAUGHTER]
05:21:47PM >>BILL CARLSON:
YES.
05:21:48PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:

05:21:49PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:

05:22:09PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
TAKE A LITTLE PAUSE -- CHAIR WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A PAUSE AND
INTRODUCE A COUPLE OF SPECIAL GUESTS IN THE AUDIENCE.
MOLLY, WOULD YOU LIKE TO BRING YOUR GUESTS UP?
REPRESENTATIVE FROM MAYOR'S YOUTH CORP AND VISITING COUNCIL
TO WATCH THE INNER WORKINGS OF THEIR LOCAL GOVERNMENT.
05:22:30PM >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING US.
I AM MOLLY -- COME IN HERE.
JUST TWO OF THEM.
A COUPLE WEREN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT THE LAST TIME THEY CAME TO
A MEETING, AND THEY WANTED TO BE HERE.
05:22:41PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
MY NAME IS GRANT HENDERSON.
I GO TO JESUIT, AND I AM A JUNIOR.
05:22:47PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:

05:22:48PM >> DRAY AND I GO TO JESUIT AND I AM A SENIOR.
05:22:55PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WELCOME TO CITY COUNCIL.
AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT AND MAYBE ONE DAY YOU WILL GO TO
GOVERNMENT.
WE WILL TRY NOT TO BORE YOU TO DEATH TOO MUCH.
ITEM NUMBER 3.
05:23:18PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
WITH YOUR PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF, DANNY
COLLINS, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
ITEM NUMBER 3, FILE NO. TA/CPA25-05 FOR THE ADDRESS OF EAST
HARBOR STREET AND CHANNELSIDE DRIVE.
A PRIVATELY INITIATED AMENDMENT, AND THE APPLICANT ON THIS
APPLICATION IS PORT TAMPA BAY.
THE AMENDMENT IS SMALL SCALE IN SIZE, AND SUBJECT SITE IS
APPROXIMATELY 5.42 ACRES.
CURRENTLY, THE SUBJECT SITE DOES NOT HAVE THE FUTURE LAND
USE DESIGNATION AND REQUESTING THE PUBLIC, SEMI-PUBLIC
DESIGNATION ON THE SITE.
SUBJECT SITE LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT,
IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT, THE ACTIVITY CENTER, AND WITHIN THE
COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREA.
IT IS SHOWN HERE ON OUR LOCATION MAP.
HERE IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND THE SURROUNDING
PROPERTIES.
AS YOU CAN SEE, THE SUBJECT SITE IS ACTUALLY CONTAINED
SURFACE WATERS WITHIN THE YBOR CHANNEL.
HERE IT IS OUTLINED IN YELLOW.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED EAST OF EAST TWIGGS STREET AND
CHANNELSIDE DRIVE AND INCLUDES SURFACE WATERS IN YBOR
CHANNEL AND LIES DIRECTLY TO THE WEST OF PORT ELM PROPERTY,
SERVING AS ONE OF TAMPA'S CRUISE TERMINALS HERE.
TO THE WEST OF CHANNELSIDE DRIVE IS A MIX OF HIGH-DENSITY
MIXED USE INCLUDING RESIDENTIAL OFFICE AND COMMERCIAL USES.
ACROSS THE YBOR CHANNEL TO THE EAST OVER HERE ARE LANDS
WITHIN THE PORT ACTIVITY CENTER.
WHILE SOME OF THESE PROPERTIES ARE STILL AN INDUSTRIAL USE,
SEVERAL FUTURE LAND USE AMENDMENTS EAST OF THE CHANNEL HAVE
OCCURRED CONVERTED TO INDUSTRIAL LANDS TO THE URBAN
MIXED-USE CATEGORY.
HERE IS AN IMAGE OF THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING EAST.
LOOKING AT SOME OF THE INDUSTRIAL USES LOOKING NORTH OF THE
SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING NORTHWEST FROM THE SUBJECT SITE TOWARD THE
LEE ROY SELMON EXPRESSWAY.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST.
STANDING ON THE SUBJECT SITE, LOOKING WEST ACROSS
CHANNELSIDE DRIVE.
SO HERE IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
AS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY, THE SUBJECT SITE DOES NOT HAVE A
FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION.
IT IS SURROUNDED BY RMU-100 TO THE NORTH AND SOUTH AND ALSO
TO THE WEST.
THERE IS A SLIVER OF HEAVY INDUSTRIAL LANDS AS WELL JUST
EAST OF THE CHANNELSIDE DRIVE RIGHT-OF-WAY, WEST OF THE
SUBJECT SITE.
A MAJORITY OF THE CHANNEL DISTRICT IS MADE UP OF RMU-100.
POCKETS OF HEAVY INDUSTRIAL.
AND AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, URBAN MIXED USE-60 DIRECTLY
ACROSS THE CHANNEL TO THE EAST.
AGAIN, THE SUBJECT SITE IS WITHIN THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD
AREA.
THIS IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
SO THIS WOULD DESIGNATE THE SITE AS PUBLIC-SEMI PUBLIC.
SO BECAUSE THIS SITE CONTAINS SURFACE WATERS AND CURRENTLY
DOES NOT HAVE A FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION, THERE IS NO
POTENTIAL DENSITY OR INTENSITY THAT CAN BE CONSIDERED ON THE
SUBJECT SITE.
AS PROPOSED UNDER THE PUBLIC, SEMI-PUBLIC DESIGNATION,
MAXIMUM CANNOT BE DEFINED AT THIS TIME.
TYPICALLY DEFINED DURING THE SITE PLAN DEVELOPMENT PHASE.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT INTRODUCES THE POTENTIAL PUBLIC AND
SUPPORTING PUBLIC USES ON THE SITE.
MAXIMUM DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL WILL BE GUIDED WITH HOW WELL
THE PROPOSED PROJECT ALIGNS WITH THE CHARACTER AND THE
COMPATIBILITY WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA.
WE SENT THIS OUT TO OUR PARTNER REVIEWING AGENCIES.
WE DID RECEIVE A COMMENT BACK FROM THE SCHOOL BOARD, AND BOTH
WILSON MIDDLE AND PLANT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IS BEEN IDENTIFIED
AS OVERCAPACITY AT THIS TIME.
I DO WANT TO NOTE THIS IS ANALYSIS FOR ADEQUATE FACILITIES
AND NOT A DETERMINATION OF SCHOOL CONCURRENCY.
THIS AMENDMENT WENT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION ON AUGUST 11.
THEY FOUND IT CONSISTENT WITH THE NUMBER OF POLICIES IN THE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
ALTHOUGH THE SITE CONSISTS OF SURFACE WATERS, THE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ALLOW FOR FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
APPLIED TO WATER BODIES UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES WHEN THE
PROJECT NEEDS OVERRIDING PUBLIC INTEREST AND ULTIMATELY
DETERMINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL.
THIS DEFINITION IS OUTLINED IN PAGES 9 AND 10 OF YOUR STAFF
REPORT.
PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND THAT IT MET THE DEFINITION AND
RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL DETERMINE THAT IT DOES
MEET THE OVERRIDING PUBLIC INTEREST DEFINITION.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION ALSO FOUND THAT THE REQUEST
SUPPORTED THE PORT TAMPA BAY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT,
SPECIFICALLY SUPPORTIVE OF THE PORT MASTER PLAN.
AND RELATED POLICY IN THE PLAN THAT SUPPORT THE PORT.
AND FINALLY, THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND IT CONSISTENT WITH
POLICIES THAT KIND OF SPOKE TO PROVIDING PUBLIC AMENITIES
AND INFRASTRUCTURE WITHIN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT AND ALSO IN
PROXIMITY TO DOWNTOWN.
WITH THAT, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED THAT THE
REQUEST BE FOUND CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND
POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
05:29:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA, YOUR LIGHT WAS ON.
DO YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING?
05:29:16PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
NO, I AM SORRY.
05:29:18PM >>BILL CARLSON:
POINT OF CLARIFICATION TO THE PUBLIC.
IF YOU MIND GOING TO THE PICTURE ON THE AERIAL FROM THE
BEGINNING.
WHEN YOU -- WHEN YOU WERE SHOWING US THIS, YOU KIND OF
GESTURED YOUR HAND AND SAID SOME OF THAT TO THE RIGHT IS
CONVERTED TO URBAN MIXED USE.
I WANT TO CLARIFY THAT THE -- I THINK IT IS CALLED THE
MARATHON OIL GASOLINE TANKS TO THE SOUTH ARE STILL
INDUSTRIAL BASED ON THE OTHER MAP.
SO THAT -- WHERE THOSE -- THAT IS A STRATEGIC ASSET OF OUR
REGION AND NOT URBAN MIXED USE, CORRECT?
05:29:59PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
THIS MAP WILL SHOW IT BETTER.
YEAH, SO THESE ARE THE FOLIOS TO THE EAST OF THE CHANNEL
THAT WERE CONVERTED TO URBAN MIXED USE-60.
THE GAS TANKS SOUTH ARE ON THIS HEAVY INDUSTRIAL PIECE.
05:30:17PM >>BILL CARLSON:
I JUST WANTED THE PUBLIC TO KNOW THAT THIS
WAS NOT -- THAT IS THE REASON WHY OUR GAS STATION FILLED UP
QUICKLY AFTER HURRICANES.
THAT'S THERE.
THANK YOU.
05:30:31PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HOW DO WE DO THE SLIVERS OF LAND TO THE
NORTH AND TO THE WEST?
05:30:37PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
OVER HERE?
05:30:38PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THE BLACK THERE THAT RUNS ALONG THE WATER.
THAT RUNS BETWEEN CHANNELSIDE DRIVE AND THE WATER AND THE
NORTH SIDE OF THE PARCEL.
WHEN THEY WANT TO UNIFY THAT AS THE SAME FUTURE LAND USE?
05:30:49PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
SO THIS -- THIS PARCEL IS ACTUALLY --
CONTAINED HEAVY INDUSTRIAL LANDS.
AND RMU-100 SURFACE WATERS AND ONLY FOR THE PORTION OF THE
SITE THAT IS -- CONTAINS SURFACE WATERS.
APPLICANT CAN ADDRESS --
05:31:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THEY WILL HAVE TO DO ANOTHER ONE TO
RECTIFY THE SLIVERS.
05:31:11PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
UP TO THE APPLICANT.
05:31:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
INTERESTING.
THANK YOU.
VERY GOOD.
ANYBODY HAVE QUESTIONS?
05:31:18PM >>BILL CARLSON:
I THINK THE PROBLEM IS THAT WAS JUST WATER
THAT WAS NEVER -- NEVER DESIGNATED, RIGHT.
THE OLD BANANA DOCKS.
THEY WOULD UNLOAD ON THE INDUSTRIAL AREA BUT THE WATER --
BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO FILL IN THE WATER WAS NEVER
DESIGNATED AND WE JUST NEED TO DESIGNATE IT.
05:31:36PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
CORRECT.
05:31:37PM >>BILL CARLSON:
THE BANANA DOCKS HAVE BEEN DONE -- THE PORT
CAN TELL US -- SINCE THE '90s RIGHT?
05:31:45PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
NO OTHER QUESTIONS?
MOVE ON.
APPLICANT.
START WITH YOUR NAME, AND PLEASE HAND THEM TO THE ATTORNEY,
AND HE WILL DISTRIBUTE THEM.
05:32:06PM >> GOOD EVENING.
I AM KEVIN MUNEER, CERTIFIED PLANNER AND ASSISTING PORT
TAMPA BAY WITH THIS PLAN AMENDMENT.
WITH ME ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO PROVIDE LEGAL, ENVIRONMENTAL,
REAL ESTATE, AND ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE PORT.
HOPEFULLY, WE CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE.
PORT TAMPA BAY OWNS AND OPERATES VARIOUS FREIGHT AND
PASSENGER SHIP FACILITIES IN THE TAMPA BAY AREA, INCLUDING
THE CRUISE SHIP TERMINALS LOCATED IN CHANNELSIDE.
OUR CRUISE SHIP BUSINESS HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL WITH
GROWTH MOST EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
THIS YEAR, WE ESTIMATE 372 VISITS AND ALMOST 1.6 MILLION
PASSENGERS.
WE HAVE OVER 50 SEPARATE DAYS EACH YEAR.
WE HAVE CRUISE SHIPS MOORED AT EACH OF OUR CRUISE SHIP
TERMINALS.
AN ADDITIONAL CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL WILL ONLY ENHANCE
PASSENGER CRUISE OPERATIONS AND THE LOGICAL LOCATION AT
METRO PORT WEST OF THE EXISTING TERMINAL.
TO DO THIS, WE NEED TO FILL IN THIS SLIP.
WHILE FILLING A SLIP WILL NORMALLY BE CONSIDERED LAND
CREATION, IN THIS CASE ACTUALLY RESTORATION OF WHAT WERE
UPLANDS THAT WERE UPLANDS BUT DREDGED DECADES AGO FOR SMALL
FREIGHTERS.
SLIPS ARE BIGGER AND HAVE NO UTILITY, BUT FILLED IN CAN BE
USED FOR A PASSENGER CRUISE TERMINAL.
I WILL HAND IT OVER TO CHARLES TO DISCUSS ECONOMIC IMPACTS
FOR THE PORT.
BEFORE I CONCLUDE, WE APPRECIATE WORKING WITH YOUR STAFF.
WE AGREE WITH THEIR FINDINGS OF COMPATIBILITY AND OUR
REQUEST MEETS ALL APPLICABLE PORT POLICIES THAT PROMOTE THE
REDEVELOPMENT OF UNDER UTILIZED WATER PROPERTIES WITH THE
FOCUS ON WATER-DEPENDENT USES INCLUDING A NEW CRUISE
TERMINAL FOR PASSENGER LINER.
THANK YOU.
05:34:14PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
I SEEN YOU WAY TOO MUCH THIS WEEK.
05:34:18PM >> THAT'S RIGHT.
GOOD EVENING, COUNCILMEN, AND GLAD TO BE HERE TODAY AND A
GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR THE BOARD.
CHARLES KLUG, GENERAL COUNSEL FOR PORT TAMPA BAY.
MENTION THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS AND JOBS CREATED, AND BACK IN
2023, WE HAD AN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS DONE BY A GROUP CALLED
MARTIN AND ASSOCIATES, AND THEY DETERMINED AS OF 2023, THE
PORT WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR $36.4 BILLION IN ECONOMIC IMPACT IN
THE REGION AND SUPPORTED MORE THAN 192,000 JOBS.
MORE SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS PARTICULAR MATTER, THAT SAME
REPORT DETERMINED THAT CRUISE SHIP OPERATIONS OF TAMPA IN
2023 ACCOUNTED FOR 2889 JOBS BASED ON 249 CRUISE SHIP CALLS.
THAT GENERATED APPROXIMATELY 1,125,000 CRUISE PASSENGERS AND
$537 MILLION IN TOTAL REVENUE COMES UP TO $2.16 MILLION PER
CRUISE AND PRODUCED $162 MILLION IN TOTAL PERSONAL INCOME IN
$17.8 MILLION IN STATE AND LOCAL TAXES.
NOW IN 2024, THAT INCREASED TO 272 CRUISE SHIP HAULS AND
1.34 MILLION CRUISE PASSENGERS AND $587 MILLION IN REVENUE.
NOW FORWARD UP TO THIS YEAR, 2025, THE PORT IS FORECASTING
372 CRUISE SHIP CALLS WITH APPROXIMATELY 1,596,000
PASSENGERS AND $803 MILLION IN REVENUE.
IN FISCAL YEAR 2026, WHICH STARTS NEXT YEAR, WE ARE
EXPECTING 395 CRUISE SHIP CALLS WITH APPROXIMATELY 1.8
MILLION PASSENGERS, $853 MILLION IN REVENUE AND SCHEDULES,
AS MR. MUNEER MENTIONED, WE HAVE 54 DAYS WITH THREE CRUISE
SHIPS EACH DAY.
THAT MEANS WE NEED THAT FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL.
THIS IS THE FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL.
LET ME TALK OF JOBS, 2889 TOTAL JOBS IN 2023.
ALSO 1323 DIRECT JOBS BASED ON THOSE 247 MIX.
THE AVERAGE PAY FOR MARITIME WORKERS IS $74,350 BASED ON 2023
NUMBERS.
THAT THAT EXCLUDES INSURANCE, RETIREMENT, AND OTHER BENEFITS
THAT ILA WORKERS RECEIVE.
WE HAD THE PRESIDENT OF THE INTERNATIONAL LONGSHOREMEN'S
UNION 1402 SCHEDULED TO APPEAR TODAY.
HE IS IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND WAS TRYING TO MAKE IT BACK TO
THIS MEETING, BUT HE WASN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT.
THAT MONEY IN 2023 DOLLARS EQUATED TO TODAY ABOUT $78,878 ADJUST
ONCE YOU ADJUST THAT FOR INFLATION.
COMPARES TO THE STATEWIDE AMPLE OF $55,000.
SO WE ARE LOOKING AT INCREASING MORE JOBS AND MORE ECONOMIC
BENEFIT TO THE AREA.
SOME IF YOU HAVE -- IF YOU EXTRAPOLATE THE NUMBER OF JOBS
FROM 2023 TO TODAY, 4583 JOBS, TOTAL JOBS, AND 2100 DIRECT
JOBS BASED ON 395 SAILINGS.
SO IN SUM, THIS CRUISE SHIP OPERATIONS PAYS -- CREATES
GOOD-PAYING JOBS AND GENERATES $850 MILLION TOTAL REVENUE
FOR THE PORT.
WE ESTIMATED THAT THE FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL WILL GENERATE
100 MORE CRUISE SHIP CALLS AND APPROXIMATELY 500,000
ADDITIONAL PASSENGERS PER YEAR.
FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL, 530 DIRECT JOBS AND 1160 TOTAL
JOBS.
SO THE PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENT WILL ALLOW THE PORT TO BUILD
THIS FOURTH TERMINAL AND ACCOMMODATE TAMPA'S FLOURISHING
CRUISE MARKET, CREATE ADDITIONAL JOBS AND INCREASED ECONOMIC
ACTIVITY IN THE BAY.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE.
THANK YOU.
05:38:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I AM GLAD YOU BROUGHT UP THE JOB ISSUE.
BECAUSE I THINK A LOT OF TIMES THAT GETS LOST IN THE LAND
USE HEARINGS AND ISSUES THAT WE HAVE OF HOW MANY JOBS ARE
CREATED.
WE CAN BUILD ALL THE HOUSES IN THE WORLD, BUT IF PEOPLE
DON'T HAVE JOBS, THEY CAN'T AFFORD EVERYTHING.
VERY IMPRESSIVE NUMBERS.
THAT IS CRAZY.
THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION.
IF YOU BUILD THE TERMINALS, YOU WILL RENUMBER THEM?
05:38:37PM >> YES, WE ARE.
WHEN WE FIRST STARTED THIS BACK IN THE '80s AND '90s, BIG
RED BOAT LINEAR FEET.
NOW ABOUT 1,000 LOA.
CRUISE TERMINAL NUMBER 1 GARRISON LOT.
CRUISE TERMINAL 2 AND THEN CRUISE TERMINAL 6 AND 3.
BUT SUPPOSED TO BE A 4 AND 5 BETWEEN 3 AND 6.
WE CAN ACTUALLY COUNT AT PORT TAMPA BAY, BUT CRUISE SHIPS
GOT BIGGER AND BIGGER.
05:39:03PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THE CHARLIE MIRANDA VERSION OF IT.
05:39:05PM >> WE WILL RENAME THOSE.
YES, SIR.
05:39:08PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
05:39:10PM >>BILL CARLSON:
SO THE FIRST CRUISE THAT I TOOK, I THOUGHT
-- I THINK IT WAS CARNIVAL AROUND 1987.
A BLUE METAL BUILDING KIND OF WHERE THE STARSHIP IS.
05:39:21PM >> PROBABLY HOLLAND AMERICA.
05:39:24PM >>BILL CARLSON:
YOU THINK SO.
IT WAS NOT VERY IMPRESSIVE.
BUT HOW LONG THE CRUISE INDUSTRY BEEN AROUND?
05:39:29PM >> WE STARTED 1981 OR SO.
THE PORT DIRECTOR BACK THEM, SESSUMS, AND JOE GARCIA AND
GOT US KICKED OFF.
A CRUISE TERMINAL THAT WE CAN'T USE ANYMORE BECAUSE AFTER
9/11, ETC.
WE BOUGHT THE PROPERTY IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT FOR PURPOSE
OF EXPANDING THE CRUISE SHIP OPERATIONS.
05:39:51PM >>BILL CARLSON:
I GOT TO ASK THIS BECAUSE IT IS GOOD TO HAVE
IT IN THE RECORD, AND IN THE BUSINESS JOURNAL A COUPLE OF YEARS
AGO, A FIVE-PAGE STORY THAT THE CRUISE INDUSTRY IS OUTDATED.
TAMPA IS BEHIND IN THE CRUISES,
GET RID OF IT AND GET CONDOS, AND THAT IT HAS NO ECONOMIC IMPACT.
YOU JUST LISTED A WHOLE BUNCH OF NUMBERS AND GIVE A SHORT
ANSWER WHY WE SHOULD CONTINUE THE CRUISE INDUSTRY AND
ACTUALLY GROW IT?
05:40:14PM >> LIKE I SAID EARLIER, THE CRUISE BUSINESS IS FLOURISHING
IN TAMPA RIGHT NOW.
TOLD BY A CONSULTANT TEN YEARS AGO, AT THIS POINT THIS TIME,
600,000 CRUISE PASSENGERS.
WE ARE GOING BE AT 1.8 MILLION CRUISE PASSENGERS.
A GREAT PLACE TO CRUISE FROM.
WATER STREET.
BUSCH GARDENS.
BEACHES.
TAMPA ZOO.
THE FLORIDA AQUARIUM.
HELP BRING CRUISES TO TAMPA.
PEOPLE LIKE CRUISING FROM TAMPA.
WE ARE RATED NUMBER ONE CRUISE PORTS IN THE WORLD BY
CARNIVAL FROM PASSENGERS FROM YEAR TO YEAR.
A GREAT PLACE TO CRUISE FROM.
ECONOMICAL VACATION FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE AND A FLOURISHING
BUSINESS, AND WE WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT.
17% OF OUR REVENUE.
SO WE ARE VERY FORTUNATEM AND PORT TAMPA BAY IS SO
DIVERSIFIED.
WE HAVE SHIPYARD, OIL, GAS, AGGREGATES, CONTAINER, FREIGHT,
AND BULK.
WE ARE NOT RELYING ENTIRELY UPON THIS, BUT A GOOD PIECE OF
BUSINESS FOR US.
05:41:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MAY HAVE A WHEEL OVER THE WATER.
VERY GOOD.
ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE APPLICANT?
HEARING NONE.
NO OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL.
ANYONE IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM?
05:41:27PM >> MR. STOLTENBERG.
I TOLD YOU GUYS YOU WOULD BE SICK OF ME TODAY.
REAL QUICK, I HAVE BEEN DOWN THERE 25 YEARS.
A LOT OF REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT.
I WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE PORT DURING THAT ENTIRE PERIOD OF
TIME.

EXPRESSWAY AND PORT AUTHORITY.

THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THIS CITY.

AMOUNT TO GO FROM A RESIDENTIAL-10 FUTURE LAND USE
DESIGNATION TO A RESIDENTIAL-20.
THIS IS THE GENERAL LOCATION OF THE AMENDMENT.
LOCATED WITHIN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT, AS WELL
AS THE REDWOOD PARK NEIGHBORHOOD.
THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE WITH THE SURROUNDING
AREA, AND THE SUBJECT SITE IS OUTLINED IN PINK.
THE SURROUNDING AREA IS A MIXTURE OF USES INCLUDING
SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED TO THE NORTH AND WEST TO THE SOUTH
IS SCATTERED VACANT LAND AND A MIX OF SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED
AND ATTACHED.
A LOOK AT THE PHOTOS.
THIS IS LOOKING DIRECTLY AT THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING NORTH ALONG NORTH BOULEVARD WITH THE SUBJECT
SITE TO THE LEFT-HAND SIDE.
LOOKING SOUTH OF OUR SUBJECT SITE ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE OF
THE CAMERA HERE.
NEXT IS LOOKING SOUTHEAST ALONG NORTH BOULEVARD WITH THE
SITE BEHIND THE CAMERA.
AND THEN LASTLY, LOOKING DOWN THE ALLEY IN THE REAR OF THE
SITE.
THIS IS OUR ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
SUBJECT SITE IS SHOWN OUTLINED IN BLACK AND CURRENTLY UNDER
THE RESIDENTIAL-10 FLU CATEGORY.
SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED TO THE F.L.U. DESIGNATION OF ADOPTED
22-19.
NORTH AND WEST OF THE SOUTH IS THE R-10 DESIGNATION.
TO THE EAST IS THE R-35.
I WILL TRY TO FIX THAT.
THE PROPOSED LAND USE MAP SHOWING THE SITE UNDER THE
PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL-20 DESIGNATION.
UNDER THE ADOPTED F.L.U. OF RESIDENTIAL-10, SITE CAN BE
CONSIDERED FOR ONE DWELLING UNIT AND CONSIDERED FOR 2591
SQUARE FEET OF COMMERCIAL USES SUBJECT TO LOCATIONAL
CRITERIA.
UNDER THE PROPOSED R-20, THE SITE MAY BE CONSIDERED FOR
THREE RESIDENTIAL USES OR 3702 SQUARE FEET OF COMMERCIAL
USES SUBJECT TO LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
PROPOSED R-20 WILL SHOW THE INCREASE OF RESIDENTIAL DENSITY
AND COMMERCIAL INTENSITY AND ALLOW FOR MULTIFAMILY USES.
AND ANY NONRESIDENTIAL USES WILL BE SUBJECT TO LOCATIONAL
CRITERIA, WHICH IS EXPANDED UNDER THE R-20 DESIGNATION.
WE WOULD LIKE TO NOTE THAT THE APPLICATION WAS SENT TO OUR
PARTNER AGENCY AND THERE WERE NO OBJECTIONS TO THIS REQUEST.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT IS RECOMMENDED TO BE FOUND CONSISTENT
WITH THE POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN INCLUDING COMPATIBILITY WITH THE SURROUND AREA.
AS THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT WAS FOUND CONSISTENT WITH EXISTING
TOWN HOMES IN THE R-35 DESIGNATION TO THE EAST AS WELL AS
THE R-20 PARCELS DIRECTLY TO THE SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
ADDITIONALLY ENCOURAGING HOUSING SUPPLY BY FINDING THE
AMENDMENT CONSISTENT WITH INFILL POLICIES.
THE RECOMMENDATION BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF IS THAT
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT BE FOUND CONSISTENT WITH THE TAMPA
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
AND THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
05:47:42PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:

05:48:14PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ABSOLUTELY.
WAY TO READ THE ROOM.
05:48:16PM >> I AM GOING TO SKIP AHEAD OF MY SLIDES AND SHOW UP ONE MORE.
I DO NOT HAVE AN OPEN PHOTOGRAPH BUT THE HOME ON THE SITE
HAS BEEN DEMOLISHED AS OF LAST WEEK OR THE LAST FEW DAYS.
THE PROPERTY TO THE SOUTH LOOK LIKE THIS BECAUSE THE FUTURE
LAND USE IS R-20 ON THOSE AND ITS PROJECTS REZONED AND
ALLOWED READY UNDER WAY.
I KNOW WHEN WE SPOKE WITH THE RIDGEWOOD CIVIC ASSOCIATION,
SOMETHING WE WOULD BE HOPING WOULD BE MOVING FORWARD QUICKLY
WITH THOSE PROJECTS SO I WANTED TO PUT THAT ON THE RECORD.
THE REASON FOR THE REQUEST TO ACCOMMODATE RESIDENTIAL
DENSITY IN THE AREA CHANGING THE LAND USE TO R-20.
TRYING TO DO THAT IN A SENSITIVE WAY.
PROPERTY TO THE EAST OF NORTH BOULEVARD IS R-35.
PROPERTY TO THE WEST IS R-10 AND ASKING FOR R-20 FOR A
GENTLE MODEST INCREASE OF RESIDENTIAL DENSITY THAT MAKES
SENSE IN THE CONTEXT.
I AM GOING TO GO THROUGH ALL THE DIFFERENT LAND USE POLICIES
THAT CITED IN SUPPORT IN THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND CITY
REPORTS.
BUT COMMON THEME THAT EMERGES IS CONNECTION, NEIGHBORHOOD
STABILITY AND CONNECTIONS TO NEIGHBORHOODS AND ALL THE GREAT
THINGS HAPPENING IN THE REST OF TAMPA.
AND WITH THAT, I REQUEST THAT THIS BE APPROVED ANYBODY IN
THE PUBLIC DISCUSS.

ITEM NUMBER 7.
STAFF.
05:52:04PM >>QUINN STEELE:
GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL, QUINN STEELE, MAP
PRESENTING A MAP AMENDMENT FOR W. EUCLID AVENUE.
THE REQUEST TO CHANGE THE FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION FROM
RESIDENTIAL-20 TO RESIDENTIAL MIXED USE-35.
HERE IS A GENERAL LOCATION MAP.
SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED WITHIN THE SOUTH TAMPA PLANNING
DISTRICT IN THE FAIR MANHATTAN NEIGHBORHOOD.
AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE OUTLINED IN YELLOW.
TO THE SOUTH IS BRITTON PLAZA.
AND TONIGHT, WEST ALONG EUCLID IS RESIDENTIAL OFFICE AND
COMMERCIAL USES AND TO THE NORTH AND EAST ARE SINGLE FAMILY
HOMES.
THIS IS A PHOTO LOOKING SOUTH ON W. EUCLID AVENUE DIRECTLY
AT THE SUBJECT SITE, WHICH IS THE VACANT PARCEL AND FURTHER
SOUTH IS BRITTON PLAZA.
THESE ARE THE RESIDENTIAL OFFICE USES TO THE WEST AND THE
SUBJECT SITE IS OUT OF FRAME ON THE RIGHT.
THESE ARE THE PROPERTIES TO THE NORTH ACROSS W. EUCLID
AVENUE.
AND THE PROPERTY DIRECTLY EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP DESIGNATES THIS SITE AS
RESIDENTIAL-20 WHICH ALLOWS UP TO 20 DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE
AND LIMITED NEIGHBORHOOD SERVING COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL
OFFICE USES AT.5 F.A.R. IF LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
EAST AND WEST IS RESIDENTIAL-20.
TO THE NORTH IS R-10 AND FURTHER EAST AND WEST ON DALE MABRY
AND HIMES ARE R-35.
CMU-35, 35 DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE AND A 2.0 F.A.R.
UNDER THE EXISTING R-20 DESIGNATION, SITE CONSIDERED FOR SIX
DWELLING UNITS OR 6700 SQUARE FEET OF NONRESIDENTIAL USES
SUBJECT TO LOCATIONAL CRITERIA WITH THE PROPOSED CMU-35, TO
TEN BUILDING UNITS PER ACRE OR OVER 37,000 -- TEN UNITS OR
27,000 SQUARE FEET OF RESIDENTIAL OR NONRESIDENTIAL
DEVELOPMENT.
IF APPROVED, ALREADY HAVE COMMERCIAL GENERAL USE AND
INCREASE POTENTIAL DENSITY AND INTENSITY OF THE SITE.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT IS CONSISTENT WITH SEVERAL OBJECTIVES
AND POLICIES OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
AND PROMOTING DENSITY OF TRANSIT OF A MIXTURE OF USES NORTH
OF BRITTON PLAZA A MAJOR COMMERCIAL HUB AND A HART TRANSIT
CENTER AND EAST OF DALE MABRY, A TRANSIT EMPHASIS.
WE SENT THIS REQUEST IN AND THERE WERE NO OBJECTIONS.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THAT THE PROPOSED MAP
AMENDMENT BE CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS, POLICIES OF THE
TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AND I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY
QUESTIONS.
05:55:03PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY QUESTIONS?
HEARING NONE.
APPLICANT, PLEASE.
05:55:27PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL, I'M ALEX SCHALER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY
DRIVE.
I WILL JUMP RIGHT IN THE MAIN PORTION OF OUR PRESENTATION
HERE.
WE REPRESENT BRICKS MOORE PROPERTY GROUP.
THEY ARE OUR CLIENT AND THE LANDOWNER IS BRITTON PLAZA.
WHEN THEY ACQUIRED THIS, THEY ACQUIRED WHAT WE ARE CALLING
AN OUTPARCEL ALONG EUCLID AVENUE, WHICH IS PART OF THE LARGER
DEAL.
THEY ARE FOCUSED ON OWNING AND MAINTAINING OPEN-AIR RETAIL
CENTER.
THEY OWN 360 OR SO PLAZAS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES.
AND SO IN PREDOMINANTLY COMMERCIAL USES AND FILING REQUEST
FOR COMMERCIAL USE ON THE SITE.
A LITTLE BACKGROUND, A COMPANION REZONING HAS BEEN FILED
THAT WILL COME BEFORE YOU NEXT MONTH TO CG.
BUT COMMERCIAL GENERAL IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH R-20.
WE HAD TO GO CHANGE THE LAND USE TO ALLOW COMMERCIAL USES.
THE REQUEST WE HAVE BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING.
WE BELIEVE THERE IS INHERENT JUSTIFICATION.
R-20 EXISTS ALONG THE STRIP NORTH OF BRITTON PLAZA AND SOUTH
OF EUCLID.
BUT JUST EAST OF THE DALE MABRY INTERSECTION.
ALL OF THOSE USES HAVE SINCE TRANSFERRED TO COMMERCIAL TYPE
USES.
SOME OF THAT PATTERN IS VERY PREVALENT ALONG THAT STRIP, AND
WE FEEL THAT A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME IS NOT AS COMPATIBLE ON THIS
SITE GIVEN THE MAGNITUDE OF THE OPERATIONS OF THE PLAZA TO
THE SOUTH.
THIS REQUEST FURTHERS MANY GOALS, POLICIES, AND OBJECTIVES OF
THE PLAN.
THESE ARE IN THE STAFF REPORT.
I WILL NOT READ THEM OUT, BUT THE KEY TAKEAWAY HERE IS THAT
THE PLAN DOES MENTION A CITY-WIDE DEMAND FOR RETAIL AND
SERVICES, AS WELL AS THOSE USES THAT ARE EMPLOYMENT
GENERATORS.
A COMMERCIAL USE.
STAFF FOUND THIS APPLICATION CONSISTENT.
AND WE WERE AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION BOARD LAST MONTH
AUGUST WHERE THEY UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDED A CONSISTENCY
FINDING.
THAT IS THE END OF MY PRESENTATION.
I AM HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

FLORIDA STATUTES REQUIRES YOU TO ABSTAIN IF

OCTOBER 23 IN A WRITTEN STAFF REPORT ON THE DATE OF THE RFQ
FOR THE K-BAR RANCH DESIGN AND WHEN IT WILL BE PUBLICALLY

BECAUSE PART OF THAT DESIGN INCLUDES COMMUNITY MEETINGS.
I AM DOING THIS BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, WE FUNDED DESIGN LAST
YEAR.

BECAUSE IF YOU GUYS REMEMBER, THE -- IN THE BEGINNING OF
MAYOR CASTOR'S TERM, THERE WAS A PARKS MASTER PLAN DONE.

HAS AS BIG PARK DEFICIT.
IF YOU LOOK AT REALLY NORTH OF TAMPA PALMS, NORTH OF JUST --

THAT AREA REALLY NOTHING THERE FROM THE CITY OF TAMPA.
SOME THIS WOULD REALLY, REALLY GO A LONG WAY IN DOING THIS.

I WOULD LIKE REMIND THE COUNCIL AND BRING
TONIGHT PUBLIC'S ATTENTION THAT THE MONTH OF OCTOBER ONLY
THE CALENDAR FOR COUNCIL BUSINESS IS VERY DIFFERENT.
NORMALLY, THE COUNCIL MEETS IN REGULARS SESSION ON THE FIRST

BUT THE CRA IS USUALLY THE SECOND THURSDAY OF THE MONTH AND
WORKSHOP IS USUALLY THE THIRD OF THE MONTH, THE THIRD
THURSDAY.
OCTOBER HAS FIVE THURSDAYS.
BUT PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT OCTOBER 2, NEXT THURSDAY, IS A
JEWISH HOLIDAY AND PER COUNCIL'S CALENDAR, THERE WILL BE NO
MEETING.
AND WHAT WOULD NORMALLY BE A CRA MEETING IS GOING TO BE
COUNCIL'S FIRST MEETING IN OCTOBER WHEN IT RETURNS ON
OCTOBER 9.
SO I WOULD JUST REMIND COUNCIL AND THE PUBLIC THAT THERE IS
NO COUNCIL MEETING NEXT WEEK, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2.
AND TO CONSULT COUNCIL'S CALENDAR ONLINE ON THE CITY
COUNCIL'S CALENDAR ON THE WEB PAGE FOR HOW THE MEETINGS WILL
BE SO YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED OR SURPRISED BY OCTOBER'S
DIFFERENT SCHEDULE.
