05:12:10PM OPPOSED?

05:12:13PM MR. COLLINS.
05:12:16PM >>DANNY COLLINS: DANNY COLLINS WITH YOUR PLANNING COMMISSION
05:12:18PM STAFF.
05:12:18PM TODAY .I WILL BE PRESENTING TA/CPA25-03.
05:12:21PM THIS IS THE FIRST ADOPTION PUBLIC HEARING FOR THIS ITEM.
05:12:24PM AND THIS IS RELATED TO THE CDB PERIPHERY BONUS SPECIFICALLY
05:12:31PM IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT CRA BOUNDARIES.
05:12:34PM JUST A QUICK BACKGROUND, THE PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEWED
05:12:38PM THIS REQUEST, AND THEY TOOK ACTION ON MAY 12, 2025.
05:12:42PM PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED THAT THE REQUEST BE FOUND
05:12:45PM CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ON JULY 31.
05:12:49PM THE CITY COUNCIL REVIEWED THE REQUEST AND VOTED TO TRANSMIT
05:12:53PM THE REQUEST TO THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE.
05:12:55PM AND THEN TODAY, WE ARE HERE FOR THE FIRST ADOPTION OF THE --
05:13:01PM FIRST ADOPTION PUBLIC HEARING FOR THIS ITEM.
05:13:04PM I JUST WANT TO KIND OF GO OVER THE REQUEST BRIEFLY.
05:13:07PM THIS IS A PRIVATELY INITIATED AMENDMENT.
05:13:10PM IT SEEKS CHANGES TO THE CDB PERIPHERY BONUS IN THE CHANNEL
05:13:18PM DISTRICT OF JANUARY 1, 2025.
05:13:21PM CURRENTLY, PROJECTS IN THE CDB PERIPHERY ARE LIMITED TO 100%
05:13:26PM OF THE MAXIMUM DENSITY AND INTENSITY.
05:13:30PM AS PROPOSED, PROBLEMS IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT CRA IS UP TO A
05:13:35PM 200% INCREASE OF INTENSITY AND DENSITY BEFORE THE F.L.U.
05:13:43PM MAXIMUM, DOUBLING THE CDB PERIPHERY BONUS WITHIN THE DISTRICT.
05:13:48PM EVERY DEVELOPMENT MUST MEET SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTS IN 27-140
05:13:54PM OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.
05:13:55PM SO FOLLOWING THE JULY 31 HEARING, WE TRANSMITTED THIS ITEM
05:14:04PM TO THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AND THE STATE REVIEWING
05:14:06PM AGENCIES.
05:14:09PM WE RECEIVED COMMENTS BACK THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE,
05:14:14PM FLORIDA DEP, AND FDOT.
05:14:18PM YOU SHOULD HAVE THOSE COMMENTS.
05:14:20PM WE SENT THEM -- WE TRANSMITTED THOSE ON SEPTEMBER 10.
05:14:25PM FLORIDA COMMERCE DID HAVE SOME CONCERNS WITH THE REQUEST.
05:14:30PM THEY RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY NOT ADOPT THE PROPOSED
05:14:34PM AMENDMENT.
05:14:34PM AGAIN, YOU SHOULD HAVE THOSE COMMENTS.
05:14:37PM AND WITH THAT, THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
05:14:42PM AND, OH, THE APPLICANT HAS SUBMITTED A RESPONSE LETTER TO
05:14:49PM THOSE DOC COMMENTS, AND YOU SHOULD ALSO HAVE THEM AS WELL.
05:14:52PM WITH THAT, THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION AND AVAILABLE FOR
05:14:56PM 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.
05:15:03PM YOU SAID THAT -- YOU SAID THAT THE BOUNDARIES WERE AS OF JULY
05:15:09PM 1, 2025.
05:15:11PM IN THE AGENDA, IT SAYS JANUARY 1.
05:15:14PM >>DANNY COLLINS: NO, JANUARY 1, 2025.
05:15:22PM MY MISTAKE.
05:15:24PM >>LYNN HURTAK: JUST DOUBLE CHECKING.
05:15:25PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THANK YOU.
05:15:27PM THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION.
05:15:28PM 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
05:15:43PM THAT THE TIMER IS NOT WORKING TONIGHT.
05:15:46PM 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.
05:15:57PM AND MEMBERS OF PUBLIC, YOU WILL HAVE THREE MINUTES.
05:15:59PM AND THAT INDICATION WILL COME FROM THE CLERK.
05:16:01PM BE MINDFUL THAT THE TIMER DOESN'T WORK, BUT WE WILL BE
05:16:04PM ADHERING TO THE STANDARD THREE-MINUTE RULE FOR PUBLIC
05:16:07PM COMMENT.
05:16:07PM THANK YOU, SIR.
05:16:08PM >> TRUETT GARDNER, ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT.
05:16:15PM DANNY WAS DOING GREAT JOB TRACKING WITH MY PRESENTATION.
05:16:19PM AS HE MENTIONED, WE RECEIVED COMMENTS BACK FROM THE STATE.
05:16:22PM THEIR MAIN POINT IS THEY VOICED CONCERNS OF POTENTIALLY
05:16:25PM ADVERSELY IMPACTING HURRICANE EVACUATION ROUTES.
05:16:28PM WE RESPONDED TO THEM.
05:16:31PM WE POINTED OUT THE PROXIMITY OF THE CHANNEL DISTRICT TO
05:16:36PM THE CDB AND WATER DISTRICT ONE LIMITED DENSITY.
05:16:39PM FURTHER, WE PROVIDED INFORMATION HOW THE CHANNEL DISTRICT IS
05:16:42PM UNIQUE AND OVER FIVE HURRICANE EVACUATION ROUTES WITHIN A
05:16:46PM MILE.
05:16:46PM YOU MIGHT RECALL FROM OUR TRANSMITTAL HEARING, WE ENTERED
05:16:51PM THIS INTO THE RECORD.
05:16:53PM THAT WILL SHOW -- THERE IT IS.
05:16:57PM POINTING OUT THOSE EVACUATION ROUTES.
05:17:00PM AND WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY COMMENTS BACK FROM THE STATE;
05:17:05PM HOWEVER, IN RESEARCHING THIS FURTHER, AND THIS IS WHERE IT
05:17:08PM GETS REALLY CURIOUS, WE FOUND COMMENTS ON OUR REQUEST FROM
05:17:12PM THE FDOT.
05:17:13PM SO IT WAS FLORIDA COMMERCE THAT ISSUED THE LETTER TALKING
05:17:17PM ABOUT HURRICANE EVACUATION ROUTES ON STATE ROADS.
05:17:20PM FDOT, WHO IS THE REVIEWING AGENCY FOR STATE ROADS, FOUND
05:17:25PM -- AND ADDIE IS PUTTING THIS UP AS WELL, AND FDOT SAID
05:17:32PM OUR REPORT HAS NO IMPACT ON STATE RESEARCH FACILITIES
05:17:37PM WITHIN ITS JURISDICTION.
05:17:39PM THE TWO DIRECTLY CONFLICT.
05:17:41PM I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE FLORIDA COMMERCE
05:17:44PM DEPARTMENT.
05:17:44PM WE FEEL WE ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH TAMPA'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
05:17:48PM AND WITH THE APPLICABLE STATE STATUTES.
05:17:51PM ULTIMATELY, WE FEEL THIS IS THE DECISION OF CITY COUNCIL.
05:17:54PM IT IS CLEAR IN THE STATUTES THAT DEFERENCE IS GIVEN TO THE
05:17:58PM LOCAL JURISDICTION.
05:17:59PM AS YOU FOUND BEFORE UNANIMOUSLY, THIS SHOULD BE SUPPORTED,
05:18:02PM WE WOULD HOPE THE SAME, BUT WE ARE HERE TO ANSWER ANY
05:18:05PM QUESTIONS THAT YOU BELIEVE.
05:18:06PM KEN WANTS TO SPEAK BRIEFLY AS WELL EVEN THOUGH HE SPOKE THIS
05:18:10PM MORNING.
05:18:10PM >> KEN STOLTENBERG, KENNEDY BOULEVARD IN THE CHANNEL
05:18:17PM DISTRICT.
05:18:17PM EVERYTHING I SAID THIS MORNING, I JUST CONFIRM THAT HERE.
05:18:20PM THAT'S ALL.
05:18:21PM I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO ASK UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY OTHER
05:18:25PM QUESTIONS.
05:18:31PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: DOES COUNCIL HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS
05:18:34PM FOR THE APPLICANT?
05:18:36PM COUNCIL MEMBER CHARLESTON?
05:18:40PM 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
05:18:48PM COUNCIL MEMBER MANISCALCO TO CLOSE.
05:18:50PM SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA.
05:18:51PM ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
05:18:52PM OPPOSED.
05:18:53PM AYES HAVE IT.
05:18:54PM COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
05:18:55PM >>BILL CARLSON: I THINK IN LOOKING AT THE LETTER FROM
05:19:00PM FLORIDA COMMERCE, THE FOLKS SOUTH OF GANDY HOPE THAT IS AN
05:19:06PM EXCUSE NOT TO BUILD IN CERTAIN AREAS.
05:19:08PM BUT THE -- I THINK THE ARGUMENT THAT TRUETT MADE IN THE
05:19:13PM LETTER IS SUFFICIENT TO DESCRIBE HOW THIS AREA IS
05:19:17PM PARTICULARLY UNIQUE.
05:19:18PM AND ALSO INCLUDED -- I DON'T KNOW IF YOU MENTIONED THIS
05:19:20PM RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE VERY FEW EMPTY SPOTS AND VERY FEW SPOTS
05:19:24PM THAT CAN BE REDEVELOPED.
05:19:25PM FEW FOUR-STORY BUILDINGS.
05:19:28PM BUT IT IS MOSTLY DEVELOPED ALREADY.
05:19:30PM AND WITH THE ACCESS TO MOVE OUT EASILY, IT'S TOTALLY
05:19:35PM DIFFERENT THAN ON A PENINSULA IN SOUTH TAMPA AND MANY
05:19:37PM OTHER AREAS THAT MIGHT FLOOD.
05:19:40PM SO I AM IN FAVOR OF THIS.
05:19:44PM IF THE STATE PUSHES BACK, IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHY
05:19:48PM CONSIDERING THOSE ARGUMENTS.
05:19:49PM THANK YOU.
05:19:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: ANYBODY ELSE?
05:19:51PM I AM IN AGREEMENT.
05:19:52PM I GOT THIS -- THE LETTER FROM THE STATE.
05:19:55PM IT SEEMS INCONSISTENT WITH WHAT I HAVE SEEN COME OUT OF
05:19:59PM TALLAHASSEE.
05:20:00PM IT IS REALLY INTELLECTUALLY INCONSISTENT.
05:20:03PM I HAD THAT BRIEFING WHEN I WAS SPEAKING WITH THE CITY
05:20:05PM ATTORNEYS TOO.
05:20:06PM I AM CURIOUS IF THIS IS A ONE-OFF.
05:20:08PM AND IF WE CHALLENGE AND PUSH FORWARD, WHAT THEIR RESPONSE
05:20:12PM WILL BE.
05:20:12PM BUT I AM WILLING TO CONTINUE ON THE COURSE THAT WE HAD
05:20:16PM PREVIOUSLY SET.
05:20:17PM >>BILL CARLSON: JUST ONE MORE THING.
05:20:19PM WE, AS CITY COUNCIL, DON'T TURN DOWN THAT MANY -- I THINK
05:20:24PM LESS THAN 3% OF PROJECTS, BUT EVERY TIME WE DO, PEOPLE SAY
05:20:27PM YOU ARE ANTI-DEVELOPMENT, ANTI-DEVELOPMENT.
05:20:29PM SOME AREAS IN THE CITY DON'T WANT DEVELOPMENT.
05:20:33PM SOME AREAS THAT DO.
05:20:34PM THIS AREA, AS WE KNOW, WAS -- HAD DIFFERENT RULES THAT IT
05:20:40PM TURNED OUT BECAUSE OF EXCEPTIONS WERE CHANGED.
05:20:44PM SO IT MAKES SENSE TO CHANGE THE RULES OVER THERE, AND ALLOW
05:20:47PM MORE DENSITY WHERE PEOPLE WANT IT INSTEAD OF PUSHING DENSITY
05:20:53PM WHERE PEOPLE DON'T WANT IT.
05:20:57PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: COUNCILMAN CARLSON, WOULD YOU LIKE TO TAKE
05:21:01PM NUMBER TWO, PLEASE.
05:21:02PM >>BILL CARLSON: SURE.
05:21:03PM I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE FILE NUMBER TA/CPA25-03, ORDINANCE

05:21:28PM PROVIDING FOR ALL ORDINANCES, PROVIDED FOR SEVERABILITY,
05:21:30PM AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
05:21:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA, I WOULD LIKE TO

05:23:32PM HARBOR STREET AND CHANNELSIDE DRIVE.
05:23:35PM A PRIVATELY INITIATED AMENDMENT, AND THE APPLICANT ON THIS
05:23:39PM APPLICATION IS PORT TAMPA BAY.
05:23:40PM THE AMENDMENT IS SMALL SCALE IN SIZE, AND SUBJECT SITE IS
05:23:44PM APPROXIMATELY 5.42 ACRES.
05:23:47PM CURRENTLY, THE SUBJECT SITE DOES NOT HAVE THE FUTURE LAND
05:23:50PM USE DESIGNATION AND REQUESTING THE PUBLIC, SEMI-PUBLIC
05:23:56PM DESIGNATION ON THE SITE.
05:23:57PM SUBJECT SITE LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT,
05:24:01PM IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT, THE ACTIVITY CENTER, AND WITHIN THE
05:24:06PM COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREA.
05:24:08PM IT IS SHOWN HERE ON OUR LOCATION MAP.
05:24:12PM HERE IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND THE SURROUNDING
05:24:18PM PROPERTIES.
05:24:18PM AS YOU CAN SEE, THE SUBJECT SITE IS ACTUALLY CONTAINED
05:24:24PM SURFACE WATERS WITHIN THE YBOR CHANNEL.
05:24:26PM HERE IT IS OUTLINED IN YELLOW.
05:24:29PM THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED EAST OF EAST TWIGGS STREET AND
05:24:34PM CHANNELSIDE DRIVE AND INCLUDES SURFACE WATERS IN YBOR
05:24:38PM CHANNEL AND LIES DIRECTLY TO THE WEST OF PORT ELM PROPERTY,
05:24:43PM SERVING AS ONE OF TAMPA'S CRUISE TERMINALS HERE.
05:24:46PM TO THE WEST OF CHANNELSIDE DRIVE IS A MIX OF HIGH-DENSITY
05:24:50PM MIXED USE INCLUDING RESIDENTIAL OFFICE AND COMMERCIAL USES.
05:24:53PM ACROSS THE YBOR CHANNEL TO THE EAST OVER HERE ARE LANDS
05:24:57PM WITHIN THE PORT ACTIVITY CENTER.
05:24:59PM WHILE SOME OF THESE PROPERTIES ARE STILL AN INDUSTRIAL USE,
05:25:04PM SEVERAL FUTURE LAND USE AMENDMENTS EAST OF THE CHANNEL HAVE
05:25:07PM OCCURRED CONVERTED TO INDUSTRIAL LANDS TO THE URBAN
05:25:16PM MIXED-USE CATEGORY.
05:25:17PM HERE IS AN IMAGE OF THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING EAST.
05:25:21PM LOOKING AT SOME OF THE INDUSTRIAL USES LOOKING NORTH OF THE
05:25:29PM SITE.
05:25:29PM THIS IS LOOKING NORTHWEST FROM THE SUBJECT SITE TOWARD THE
05:25:32PM LEE ROY SELMON EXPRESSWAY.
05:25:33PM THIS IS LOOKING WEST.
05:25:36PM STANDING ON THE SUBJECT SITE, LOOKING WEST ACROSS
05:25:40PM CHANNELSIDE DRIVE.
05:25:40PM SO HERE IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
05:25:45PM AS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY, THE SUBJECT SITE DOES NOT HAVE A
05:25:49PM FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION.
05:25:50PM IT IS SURROUNDED BY RMU-100 TO THE NORTH AND SOUTH AND ALSO
05:25:55PM TO THE WEST.
05:25:56PM THERE IS A SLIVER OF HEAVY INDUSTRIAL LANDS AS WELL JUST
05:26:02PM EAST OF THE CHANNELSIDE DRIVE RIGHT-OF-WAY, WEST OF THE
05:26:05PM SUBJECT SITE.
05:26:06PM A MAJORITY OF THE CHANNEL DISTRICT IS MADE UP OF RMU-100.
05:26:11PM POCKETS OF HEAVY INDUSTRIAL.
05:26:14PM AND AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, URBAN MIXED USE-60 DIRECTLY
05:26:18PM ACROSS THE CHANNEL TO THE EAST.
05:26:20PM AGAIN, THE SUBJECT SITE IS WITHIN THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD
05:26:24PM AREA.
05:26:24PM THIS IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
05:26:27PM SO THIS WOULD DESIGNATE THE SITE AS PUBLIC-SEMI PUBLIC.
05:26:32PM SO BECAUSE THIS SITE CONTAINS SURFACE WATERS AND CURRENTLY
05:26:44PM DOES NOT HAVE A FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION, THERE IS NO
05:26:50PM POTENTIAL DENSITY OR INTENSITY THAT CAN BE CONSIDERED ON THE
05:26:55PM SUBJECT SITE.
05:26:56PM AS PROPOSED UNDER THE PUBLIC, SEMI-PUBLIC DESIGNATION,
05:27:02PM MAXIMUM CANNOT BE DEFINED AT THIS TIME.
05:27:05PM TYPICALLY DEFINED DURING THE SITE PLAN DEVELOPMENT PHASE.
05:27:08PM THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT INTRODUCES THE POTENTIAL PUBLIC AND
05:27:12PM SUPPORTING PUBLIC USES ON THE SITE.
05:27:14PM MAXIMUM DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL WILL BE GUIDED WITH HOW WELL
05:27:17PM THE PROPOSED PROJECT ALIGNS WITH THE CHARACTER AND THE
05:27:19PM COMPATIBILITY WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA.
05:27:21PM WE SENT THIS OUT TO OUR PARTNER REVIEWING AGENCIES.
05:27:26PM WE DID RECEIVE A COMMENT BACK FROM THE SCHOOL BOARD, AND BOTH
05:27:30PM WILSON MIDDLE AND PLANT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IS BEEN IDENTIFIED
05:27:34PM AS OVERCAPACITY AT THIS TIME.
05:27:36PM I DO WANT TO NOTE THIS IS ANALYSIS FOR ADEQUATE FACILITIES
05:27:40PM AND NOT A DETERMINATION OF SCHOOL CONCURRENCY.
05:27:43PM THIS AMENDMENT WENT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION ON AUGUST 11.
05:27:51PM THEY FOUND IT CONSISTENT WITH THE NUMBER OF POLICIES IN THE
05:27:55PM COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
05:27:56PM ALTHOUGH THE SITE CONSISTS OF SURFACE WATERS, THE
05:28:01PM COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ALLOW FOR FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
05:28:06PM APPLIED TO WATER BODIES UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES WHEN THE
05:28:10PM PROJECT NEEDS OVERRIDING PUBLIC INTEREST AND ULTIMATELY
05:28:13PM DETERMINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL.
05:28:14PM THIS DEFINITION IS OUTLINED IN PAGES 9 AND 10 OF YOUR STAFF
05:28:24PM REPORT.
05:28:24PM PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND THAT IT MET THE DEFINITION AND
05:28:27PM RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL DETERMINE THAT IT DOES
05:28:29PM MEET THE OVERRIDING PUBLIC INTEREST DEFINITION.
05:28:32PM THE PLANNING COMMISSION ALSO FOUND THAT THE REQUEST
05:28:34PM SUPPORTED THE PORT TAMPA BAY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT,
05:28:38PM SPECIFICALLY SUPPORTIVE OF THE PORT MASTER PLAN.
05:28:41PM AND RELATED POLICY IN THE PLAN THAT SUPPORT THE PORT.
05:28:46PM AND FINALLY, THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND IT CONSISTENT WITH
05:28:48PM POLICIES THAT KIND OF SPOKE TO PROVIDING PUBLIC AMENITIES
05:28:53PM AND INFRASTRUCTURE WITHIN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT AND ALSO IN
05:28:57PM PROXIMITY TO DOWNTOWN.
05:28:59PM WITH THAT, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED THAT THE
05:29:02PM REQUEST BE FOUND CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND
05:29:06PM POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
05:29:08PM AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
05:29:10PM I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
05:29:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA, YOUR LIGHT WAS ON.
05:29:15PM 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.
05:29:20PM IF YOU MIND GOING TO THE PICTURE ON THE AERIAL FROM THE
05:29:24PM BEGINNING.
05:29:24PM WHEN YOU -- WHEN YOU WERE SHOWING US THIS, YOU KIND OF
05:29:32PM GESTURED YOUR HAND AND SAID SOME OF THAT TO THE RIGHT IS
05:29:35PM CONVERTED TO URBAN MIXED USE.
05:29:37PM I WANT TO CLARIFY THAT THE -- I THINK IT IS CALLED THE
05:29:40PM MARATHON OIL GASOLINE TANKS TO THE SOUTH ARE STILL
05:29:46PM INDUSTRIAL BASED ON THE OTHER MAP.
05:29:48PM SO THAT -- WHERE THOSE -- THAT IS A STRATEGIC ASSET OF OUR
05:29:53PM REGION AND NOT URBAN MIXED USE, CORRECT?
05:29:59PM >>DANNY COLLINS: THIS MAP WILL SHOW IT BETTER.
05:30:01PM YEAH, SO THESE ARE THE FOLIOS TO THE EAST OF THE CHANNEL
05:30:10PM THAT WERE CONVERTED TO URBAN MIXED USE-60.
05:30:13PM THE GAS TANKS SOUTH ARE ON THIS HEAVY INDUSTRIAL PIECE.
05:30:17PM >>BILL CARLSON: I JUST WANTED THE PUBLIC TO KNOW THAT THIS
05:30:22PM WAS NOT -- THAT IS THE REASON WHY OUR GAS STATION FILLED UP
05:30:29PM QUICKLY AFTER HURRICANES.
05:30:30PM THAT'S THERE.
05:30:31PM THANK YOU.
05:30:31PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: HOW DO WE DO THE SLIVERS OF LAND TO THE
05:30:35PM 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.
05:30:40PM THAT RUNS BETWEEN CHANNELSIDE DRIVE AND THE WATER AND THE
05:30:44PM NORTH SIDE OF THE PARCEL.
05:30:45PM WHEN THEY WANT TO UNIFY THAT AS THE SAME FUTURE LAND USE?
05:30:49PM >>DANNY COLLINS: SO THIS -- THIS PARCEL IS ACTUALLY --
05:30:53PM CONTAINED HEAVY INDUSTRIAL LANDS.
05:30:55PM AND RMU-100 SURFACE WATERS AND ONLY FOR THE PORTION OF THE
05:31:02PM SITE THAT IS -- CONTAINS SURFACE WATERS.
05:31:05PM APPLICANT CAN ADDRESS --
05:31:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THEY WILL HAVE TO DO ANOTHER ONE TO
05:31:10PM RECTIFY THE SLIVERS.
05:31:11PM >>DANNY COLLINS: UP TO THE APPLICANT.
05:31:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: INTERESTING.
05:31:14PM THANK YOU.
05:31:14PM VERY GOOD.
05:31:17PM ANYBODY HAVE QUESTIONS?
05:31:18PM >>BILL CARLSON: I THINK THE PROBLEM IS THAT WAS JUST WATER
05:31:21PM THAT WAS NEVER -- NEVER DESIGNATED, RIGHT.
05:31:24PM THE OLD BANANA DOCKS.
05:31:27PM THEY WOULD UNLOAD ON THE INDUSTRIAL AREA BUT THE WATER --
05:31:30PM BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO FILL IN THE WATER WAS NEVER
05:31:32PM 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
05:31:40PM CAN TELL US -- SINCE THE '90s RIGHT?
05:31:45PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: NO OTHER QUESTIONS?
05:31:46PM MOVE ON.
05:31:46PM APPLICANT.
05:31:47PM START WITH YOUR NAME, AND PLEASE HAND THEM TO THE ATTORNEY,
05:32:05PM AND HE WILL DISTRIBUTE THEM.
05:32:06PM >> GOOD EVENING.
05:32:20PM I AM KEVIN MUNEER, CERTIFIED PLANNER AND ASSISTING PORT
05:32:25PM TAMPA BAY WITH THIS PLAN AMENDMENT.
05:32:27PM WITH ME ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO PROVIDE LEGAL, ENVIRONMENTAL,
05:32:31PM REAL ESTATE, AND ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE PORT.
05:32:33PM HOPEFULLY, WE CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE.
05:32:37PM PORT TAMPA BAY OWNS AND OPERATES VARIOUS FREIGHT AND
05:32:42PM PASSENGER SHIP FACILITIES IN THE TAMPA BAY AREA, INCLUDING
05:32:45PM THE CRUISE SHIP TERMINALS LOCATED IN CHANNELSIDE.
05:32:48PM OUR CRUISE SHIP BUSINESS HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL WITH
05:32:52PM GROWTH MOST EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
05:32:55PM THIS YEAR, WE ESTIMATE 372 VISITS AND ALMOST 1.6 MILLION
05:32:59PM PASSENGERS.
05:33:00PM WE HAVE OVER 50 SEPARATE DAYS EACH YEAR.
05:33:03PM WE HAVE CRUISE SHIPS MOORED AT EACH OF OUR CRUISE SHIP
05:33:08PM TERMINALS.
05:33:09PM AN ADDITIONAL CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL WILL ONLY ENHANCE
05:33:12PM PASSENGER CRUISE OPERATIONS AND THE LOGICAL LOCATION AT
05:33:18PM METRO PORT WEST OF THE EXISTING TERMINAL.
05:33:21PM TO DO THIS, WE NEED TO FILL IN THIS SLIP.
05:33:25PM WHILE FILLING A SLIP WILL NORMALLY BE CONSIDERED LAND
05:33:28PM CREATION, IN THIS CASE ACTUALLY RESTORATION OF WHAT WERE
05:33:34PM UPLANDS THAT WERE UPLANDS BUT DREDGED DECADES AGO FOR SMALL
05:33:40PM FREIGHTERS.
05:33:40PM SLIPS ARE BIGGER AND HAVE NO UTILITY, BUT FILLED IN CAN BE
05:33:45PM USED FOR A PASSENGER CRUISE TERMINAL.
05:33:47PM I WILL HAND IT OVER TO CHARLES TO DISCUSS ECONOMIC IMPACTS
05:33:51PM FOR THE PORT.
05:33:51PM BEFORE I CONCLUDE, WE APPRECIATE WORKING WITH YOUR STAFF.
05:33:54PM WE AGREE WITH THEIR FINDINGS OF COMPATIBILITY AND OUR
05:33:57PM REQUEST MEETS ALL APPLICABLE PORT POLICIES THAT PROMOTE THE
05:34:02PM REDEVELOPMENT OF UNDER UTILIZED WATER PROPERTIES WITH THE
05:34:06PM FOCUS ON WATER-DEPENDENT USES INCLUDING A NEW CRUISE
05:34:11PM TERMINAL FOR PASSENGER LINER.
05:34:13PM THANK YOU.
05:34:14PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THANK YOU.
05:34:15PM I SEEN YOU WAY TOO MUCH THIS WEEK.
05:34:18PM >> THAT'S RIGHT.
05:34:18PM GOOD EVENING, COUNCILMEN, AND GLAD TO BE HERE TODAY AND A
05:34:25PM GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR THE BOARD.
05:34:26PM CHARLES KLUG, GENERAL COUNSEL FOR PORT TAMPA BAY.
05:34:31PM MENTION THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS AND JOBS CREATED, AND BACK IN
05:34:35PM 2023, WE HAD AN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS DONE BY A GROUP CALLED
05:34:38PM MARTIN AND ASSOCIATES, AND THEY DETERMINED AS OF 2023, THE
05:34:43PM PORT WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR $36.4 BILLION IN ECONOMIC IMPACT IN
05:34:49PM THE REGION AND SUPPORTED MORE THAN 192,000 JOBS.
05:34:52PM MORE SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS PARTICULAR MATTER, THAT SAME
05:34:55PM REPORT DETERMINED THAT CRUISE SHIP OPERATIONS OF TAMPA IN
05:34:59PM 2023 ACCOUNTED FOR 2889 JOBS BASED ON 249 CRUISE SHIP CALLS.
05:35:06PM THAT GENERATED APPROXIMATELY 1,125,000 CRUISE PASSENGERS AND
05:35:12PM $537 MILLION IN TOTAL REVENUE COMES UP TO $2.16 MILLION PER
05:35:18PM CRUISE AND PRODUCED $162 MILLION IN TOTAL PERSONAL INCOME IN
05:35:22PM $17.8 MILLION IN STATE AND LOCAL TAXES.
05:35:25PM NOW IN 2024, THAT INCREASED TO 272 CRUISE SHIP HAULS AND
05:35:33PM 1.34 MILLION CRUISE PASSENGERS AND $587 MILLION IN REVENUE.
05:35:37PM NOW FORWARD UP TO THIS YEAR, 2025, THE PORT IS FORECASTING
05:35:43PM 372 CRUISE SHIP CALLS WITH APPROXIMATELY 1,596,000
05:35:47PM PASSENGERS AND $803 MILLION IN REVENUE.
05:35:50PM IN FISCAL YEAR 2026, WHICH STARTS NEXT YEAR, WE ARE
05:35:54PM EXPECTING 395 CRUISE SHIP CALLS WITH APPROXIMATELY 1.8
05:35:59PM MILLION PASSENGERS, $853 MILLION IN REVENUE AND SCHEDULES,
05:36:05PM AS MR. MUNEER MENTIONED, WE HAVE 54 DAYS WITH THREE CRUISE
05:36:10PM SHIPS EACH DAY.
05:36:11PM THAT MEANS WE NEED THAT FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL.
05:36:14PM THIS IS THE FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL.
05:36:16PM LET ME TALK OF JOBS, 2889 TOTAL JOBS IN 2023.
05:36:21PM ALSO 1323 DIRECT JOBS BASED ON THOSE 247 MIX.
05:36:28PM THE AVERAGE PAY FOR MARITIME WORKERS IS $74,350 BASED ON 2023
05:36:36PM NUMBERS.
05:36:36PM THAT THAT EXCLUDES INSURANCE, RETIREMENT, AND OTHER BENEFITS
05:36:39PM THAT ILA WORKERS RECEIVE.
05:36:41PM WE HAD THE PRESIDENT OF THE INTERNATIONAL LONGSHOREMEN'S
05:36:45PM UNION 1402 SCHEDULED TO APPEAR TODAY.
05:36:49PM HE IS IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND WAS TRYING TO MAKE IT BACK TO
05:36:53PM THIS MEETING, BUT HE WASN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT.
05:36:58PM THAT MONEY IN 2023 DOLLARS EQUATED TO TODAY ABOUT $78,878 ADJUST
05:37:05PM ONCE YOU ADJUST THAT FOR INFLATION.
05:37:06PM COMPARES TO THE STATEWIDE AMPLE OF $55,000.
05:37:09PM SO WE ARE LOOKING AT INCREASING MORE JOBS AND MORE ECONOMIC
05:37:14PM BENEFIT TO THE AREA.
05:37:15PM SOME IF YOU HAVE -- IF YOU EXTRAPOLATE THE NUMBER OF JOBS
05:37:19PM FROM 2023 TO TODAY, 4583 JOBS, TOTAL JOBS, AND 2100 DIRECT
05:37:24PM JOBS BASED ON 395 SAILINGS.
05:37:28PM SO IN SUM, THIS CRUISE SHIP OPERATIONS PAYS -- CREATES
05:37:32PM GOOD-PAYING JOBS AND GENERATES $850 MILLION TOTAL REVENUE
05:37:36PM FOR THE PORT.
05:37:37PM WE ESTIMATED THAT THE FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL WILL GENERATE
05:37:40PM 100 MORE CRUISE SHIP CALLS AND APPROXIMATELY 500,000
05:37:46PM ADDITIONAL PASSENGERS PER YEAR.
05:37:48PM FOURTH CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL, 530 DIRECT JOBS AND 1160 TOTAL
05:37:54PM JOBS.
05:37:55PM SO THE PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENT WILL ALLOW THE PORT TO BUILD
05:37:58PM THIS FOURTH TERMINAL AND ACCOMMODATE TAMPA'S FLOURISHING
05:38:02PM CRUISE MARKET, CREATE ADDITIONAL JOBS AND INCREASED ECONOMIC
05:38:05PM ACTIVITY IN THE BAY.
05:38:06PM IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE.
05:38:10PM THANK YOU.
05:38:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I AM GLAD YOU BROUGHT UP THE JOB ISSUE.
05:38:13PM BECAUSE I THINK A LOT OF TIMES THAT GETS LOST IN THE LAND
05:38:18PM USE HEARINGS AND ISSUES THAT WE HAVE OF HOW MANY JOBS ARE
05:38:21PM CREATED.
05:38:22PM WE CAN BUILD ALL THE HOUSES IN THE WORLD, BUT IF PEOPLE
05:38:26PM DON'T HAVE JOBS, THEY CAN'T AFFORD EVERYTHING.
05:38:28PM VERY IMPRESSIVE NUMBERS.
05:38:29PM THAT IS CRAZY.
05:38:30PM THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION.
05:38:33PM IF YOU BUILD THE TERMINALS, YOU WILL RENUMBER THEM?
05:38:37PM >> YES, WE ARE.
05:38:37PM WHEN WE FIRST STARTED THIS BACK IN THE '80s AND '90s, BIG
05:38:43PM RED BOAT LINEAR FEET.
05:38:45PM NOW ABOUT 1,000 LOA.
05:38:48PM CRUISE TERMINAL NUMBER 1 GARRISON LOT.
05:38:51PM CRUISE TERMINAL 2 AND THEN CRUISE TERMINAL 6 AND 3.
05:38:54PM BUT SUPPOSED TO BE A 4 AND 5 BETWEEN 3 AND 6.
05:38:58PM WE CAN ACTUALLY COUNT AT PORT TAMPA BAY, BUT CRUISE SHIPS
05:39:01PM GOT BIGGER AND BIGGER.
05:39:03PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THE CHARLIE MIRANDA VERSION OF IT.
05:39:05PM >> WE WILL RENAME THOSE.
05:39:07PM YES, SIR.
05:39:08PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
05:39:10PM >>BILL CARLSON: SO THE FIRST CRUISE THAT I TOOK, I THOUGHT
05:39:13PM -- I THINK IT WAS CARNIVAL AROUND 1987.
05:39:16PM A BLUE METAL BUILDING KIND OF WHERE THE STARSHIP IS.
05:39:21PM >> PROBABLY HOLLAND AMERICA.
05:39:24PM >>BILL CARLSON: YOU THINK SO.
05:39:25PM IT WAS NOT VERY IMPRESSIVE.
05:39:26PM BUT HOW LONG THE CRUISE INDUSTRY BEEN AROUND?
05:39:29PM >> WE STARTED 1981 OR SO.
05:39:31PM THE PORT DIRECTOR BACK THEM, SESSUMS, AND JOE GARCIA AND
05:39:37PM GOT US KICKED OFF.
05:39:39PM A CRUISE TERMINAL THAT WE CAN'T USE ANYMORE BECAUSE AFTER
05:39:43PM 9/11, ETC.
05:39:44PM WE BOUGHT THE PROPERTY IN THE CHANNEL DISTRICT FOR PURPOSE
05:39:49PM OF EXPANDING THE CRUISE SHIP OPERATIONS.
05:39:51PM >>BILL CARLSON: I GOT TO ASK THIS BECAUSE IT IS GOOD TO HAVE
05:39:54PM IT IN THE RECORD, AND IN THE BUSINESS JOURNAL A COUPLE OF YEARS
05:39:58PM AGO, A FIVE-PAGE STORY THAT THE CRUISE INDUSTRY IS OUTDATED.
05:40:02PM TAMPA IS BEHIND IN THE CRUISES,
05:40:03PM GET RID OF IT AND GET CONDOS, AND THAT IT HAS NO ECONOMIC IMPACT.
05:40:08PM YOU JUST LISTED A WHOLE BUNCH OF NUMBERS AND GIVE A SHORT
05:40:11PM ANSWER WHY WE SHOULD CONTINUE THE CRUISE INDUSTRY AND
05:40:13PM ACTUALLY GROW IT?
05:40:14PM >> LIKE I SAID EARLIER, THE CRUISE BUSINESS IS FLOURISHING
05:40:18PM IN TAMPA RIGHT NOW.
05:40:19PM TOLD BY A CONSULTANT TEN YEARS AGO, AT THIS POINT THIS TIME,
05:40:23PM 600,000 CRUISE PASSENGERS.
05:40:24PM WE ARE GOING BE AT 1.8 MILLION CRUISE PASSENGERS.
05:40:29PM A GREAT PLACE TO CRUISE FROM.
05:40:31PM WATER STREET.
05:40:32PM BUSCH GARDENS.
05:40:34PM BEACHES.
05:40:34PM TAMPA ZOO.
05:40:35PM THE FLORIDA AQUARIUM.
05:40:37PM HELP BRING CRUISES TO TAMPA.
05:40:38PM PEOPLE LIKE CRUISING FROM TAMPA.
05:40:40PM WE ARE RATED NUMBER ONE CRUISE PORTS IN THE WORLD BY
05:40:44PM CARNIVAL FROM PASSENGERS FROM YEAR TO YEAR.
05:40:46PM A GREAT PLACE TO CRUISE FROM.
05:40:49PM ECONOMICAL VACATION FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE AND A FLOURISHING
05:40:53PM BUSINESS, AND WE WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT.
05:40:55PM 17% OF OUR REVENUE.
05:40:56PM SO WE ARE VERY FORTUNATEM AND PORT TAMPA BAY IS SO
05:41:01PM DIVERSIFIED.
05:41:01PM WE HAVE SHIPYARD, OIL, GAS, AGGREGATES, CONTAINER, FREIGHT,
05:41:02PM AND BULK.
05:41:07PM WE ARE NOT RELYING ENTIRELY UPON THIS, BUT A GOOD PIECE OF
05:41:10PM BUSINESS FOR US.
05:41:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: MAY HAVE A WHEEL OVER THE WATER.
05:41:13PM VERY GOOD.
05:41:15PM ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE APPLICANT?
05:41:17PM HEARING NONE.
05:41:18PM NO OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL.
05:41:19PM ANYONE IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM?
05:41:27PM >> MR. STOLTENBERG.
05:41:29PM I TOLD YOU GUYS YOU WOULD BE SICK OF ME TODAY.
05:41:33PM REAL QUICK, I HAVE BEEN DOWN THERE 25 YEARS.
05:41:35PM A LOT OF REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT.
05:41:37PM I WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE PORT DURING THAT ENTIRE PERIOD OF
05:41:40PM TIME.
05:41:40PM TAMPA IS VERY BLESSED TO HAVE A PHENOMENAL AVIATION AND
05:41:45PM EXPRESSWAY AND PORT AUTHORITY.
05:41:47PM NOT EVERY CITY CAN SAY THAT.
05:41:49PM ALL THREE OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE TOP-NOTCH AND AID IN
05:41:53PM THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THIS CITY.
05:41:55PM MORE CRUISE SHIPS, HOORAY.
05:41:57PM LET'S GO.
05:41:58PM THANK YOU.
05:41:58PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: ANYONE ELSE IN THE PUBLIC WISH TO SPEAK ON
05:42:01PM THIS ITEM.
05:42:01PM A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER MANISCALCO.
05:42:03PM SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA.
05:42:05PM ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
05:42:05PM OPPOSED.

05:42:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
05:42:12PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO SEE PEOPLE IN QUITE
05:42:15PM SOME TIME.

05:55:29PM DRIVE.
05:55:31PM I WILL JUMP RIGHT IN THE MAIN PORTION OF OUR PRESENTATION
05:55:34PM HERE.
05:55:34PM WE REPRESENT BRICKS MOORE PROPERTY GROUP.
05:55:38PM THEY ARE OUR CLIENT AND THE LANDOWNER IS BRITTON PLAZA.
05:55:42PM WHEN THEY ACQUIRED THIS, THEY ACQUIRED WHAT WE ARE CALLING
05:55:46PM AN OUTPARCEL ALONG EUCLID AVENUE, WHICH IS PART OF THE LARGER
05:55:50PM DEAL.
05:55:50PM THEY ARE FOCUSED ON OWNING AND MAINTAINING OPEN-AIR RETAIL

05:56:10PM A LITTLE BACKGROUND, A COMPANION REZONING HAS BEEN FILED
05:56:14PM THAT WILL COME BEFORE YOU NEXT MONTH TO CG.
05:56:17PM BUT COMMERCIAL GENERAL IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH R-20.

05:56:28PM THE REQUEST WE HAVE BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING.
05:56:30PM WE BELIEVE THERE IS INHERENT JUSTIFICATION.
05:56:33PM R-20 EXISTS ALONG THE STRIP NORTH OF BRITTON PLAZA AND SOUTH
05:56:39PM OF EUCLID.
05:56:39PM BUT JUST EAST OF THE DALE MABRY INTERSECTION.
05:56:42PM ALL OF THOSE USES HAVE SINCE TRANSFERRED TO COMMERCIAL TYPE
05:56:45PM USES.
05:56:46PM SOME OF THAT PATTERN IS VERY PREVALENT ALONG THAT STRIP, AND
05:56:50PM WE FEEL THAT A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME IS NOT AS COMPATIBLE ON THIS
05:56:54PM SITE GIVEN THE MAGNITUDE OF THE OPERATIONS OF THE PLAZA TO
05:56:57PM THE SOUTH.
05:56:58PM THIS REQUEST FURTHERS MANY GOALS, POLICIES, AND OBJECTIVES OF
05:57:02PM THE PLAN.
05:57:03PM THESE ARE IN THE STAFF REPORT.
05:57:04PM I WILL NOT READ THEM OUT, BUT THE KEY TAKEAWAY HERE IS THAT
05:57:08PM THE PLAN DOES MENTION A CITY-WIDE DEMAND FOR RETAIL AND
05:57:12PM SERVICES, AS WELL AS THOSE USES THAT ARE EMPLOYMENT
05:57:14PM GENERATORS.
05:57:15PM A COMMERCIAL USE.
