JUST THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS BECAUSE THIS WAS DONE SO LATE.
I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT THERE HAS BEEN E-MAIL BACK AND
FORTH ABOUT THIS.
OBVIOUSLY, I DO WANT THIS CONTINUED, BUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD

THE FIRST ITEM IS NON-QUASI-JUDICIAL.
NUMBER 2.
5:09:39PM >>DANNY COLLINS:
DANNY COLLINS WITH YOUR PLANNING COMMISSION
STAFF.
ITEM 2 IS FILE TA/CPA 25-16.
THIS IS A MAP AMENDMENT FOR THE SITE LOCATED AT 1301 EAST
COLUMBUS DRIVE.
THE REQUEST IS PRIVATELY INITIATED, SMALL SCALE IN SIZE.
IT'S APPROXIMATELY .24 ACRES.
AND THE REQUEST IS TO CHANGE TO FUTURE LAND USE FROM
RESIDENTIAL 20 TO THE RESIDENTIAL 35 DESIGNATION.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING
DISTRICT.
IT IS SHOWN HERE ON OUR LOCATIONAL MAP.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE EAST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE.
SPECIFICALLY IT'S IN THE VM YBOR NEIGHBORHOOD.
IT'S ALSO WITHIN THE YBOR CITY LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT.
BECAUSE IT IS WITHIN THE LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, IT WENT TO
THE BARRIO LATINO COMMISSION, I BELIEVE IT WAS DECEMBER 16,

WHERE THEY HAD A FAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION FOR THIS
AMENDMENT.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF EAST
COLUMBUS DRIVE AND EAST 13th AVENUE.
CURRENTLY, THERE IS A CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE THAT IS LOCATED
ON THE SUBJECT SITE.
THERE IS A MIX OF RESIDENTIAL USES, INCLUDING SOME OFFICE
USES ALONG EAST COLUMBUS DRIVE.
THERE IS SOME CMU 35 AND SOME PUBLIC, SEMI-PUBLIC USES
NORTHWEST -- SORRY, NORTHEAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE.
HERE IS AN IMAGE OF THE SUBJECT SITE FROM EAST COLUMBUS
DRIVE.
THIS IS LOOKING EAST ALONG EAST COLUMBUS DRIVE.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS ON THE RIGHT.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ALONG EAST COLUMBUS DRIVE.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS ON THE LEFT.
THIS IS ANOTHER IMAGE LOOKING EAST AT THE SIDE COURTYARD OF
THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH FROM THE SUBJECT SITE ALONG NORTH
13th STREET.
SO THE SUBJECT SITE INCLUDING PARCELS TO THE NORTH -- TO THE
NORTH, EAST, SOUTH AND WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE IS
SURROUNDED -- IS DESIGNATED AS RESIDENTIAL 20 AND SURROUNDED
BY THE RESIDENTIAL 20.
THAT CATEGORY ALLOWS FOR A RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT UP TO 20

DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE.
IT ALLOWS THE CONSIDERATION OF NEIGHBORHOOD SERVING
COMMERCIAL USES SUBJECT TO MEETING LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
ONE BLOCK TO THE EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, WE HAVE SOME CMU
35 DESIGNATED PARCELS HERE, AND THEN JUST APPROXIMATELY TWO
BLOCKS NORTHEAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE WE HAVE THE RECREATION
OPEN SPACE DESIGNATION.
THE REQUEST IS TO AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORY TO THE
RESIDENTIAL 35 DESIGNATION, WHICH IS SIMILAR TO THE
RESIDENTIAL 20 DESIGNATION, HOWEVER IT ALLOWS UP TO 35
DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE.
THIS IS A MAP SHOWING THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE OF
RESIDENTIAL 35.
AGAIN, YOU HAVE RESIDENTIAL 20 TO THE NORTH, SOUTH, EAST,
AND WEST.
CMU 35 ONE BLOCK TO THE EAST.
CURRENTLY UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL 20 DESIGNATION, THE SUBJECT
SITE COULD BE CONSIDERED FOR MAXIMUM OF FOUR DWELLING UNITS
OR JUST UNDER 21,000 SQUARE FEET OF NEIGHBORHOOD SERVING
COMMERCIAL USES.
SUBJECT TO MEETING LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.
AS PROPOSED UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL 35 DESIGNATION, THE
SUBJECT SITE CAN BE CONSIDERED FOR A MAXIMUM OF EIGHT
DWELLING UNITS OR JUST UNDER 21,000 SQUARE FEET OF
NONRESIDENTIAL USES SUBJECT TO MEETING LOCATIONAL CRITERIA.

SO THIS AMENDMENT, AS YOU CAN SEE, WOULD INCREASE THE
DENSITY THAT COULD BE CONSIDERED ON THE SUBJECT SITE FROM
FOUR UNITS TO EIGHT UNITS.
WE SENT THIS OUT TO OUR PARTNER REVIEWING AGENCIES.
WE RECEIVED NO OBJECTIONS TO THE REQUEST.
CITY OF TAMPA STAFF HAD NO OBJECTIONS.
THIS WENT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION BACK IN NOVEMBER OF
LAST YEAR, AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND THE REQUEST
CONSISTENT WITH A NUMBER OF POLICIES IN THE COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN, SPECIFICALLY THOSE RELATED TO NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTER
AND COMPATIBILITY.
THIS SITE IS LOCATED WITHIN AN URBAN VILLAGE WHERE THAT'S --
I'M SORRY.
THIS SITE IS LOCATED ON A TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDOR.
THAT'S AN AREA WHERE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SUPPORTS
REDEVELOPMENT AND INTENSIFICATION.
AND ALSO, IT IS ONE BLOCK WEST OF CMU 35, WHICH IS A
CATEGORY THAT ALLOWS MEDIUM DENSITY MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT.
SO THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND IT CONSISTENT WITH THOSE
POLICIES RELATED TO COMPATIBILITY.
IT WAS APPROPRIATE -- AN APPROPRIATE AREA FOR INCREASED
DENSITY.
ADDITIONALLY, IT WAS FOUND CONSISTENT WITH POLICIES RELATED
TO ENSURING THERE IS AN ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF HOUSING IN THE
CITY.

THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DIRECTS THE GREATEST SHARE OF GROWTH
TO THE URBAN VILLAGES, AND THIS REQUEST WOULD ALLOW
ADDITIONAL DENSITY IN HOUSING WITHIN URBAN VILLAGE.
AND BASED ON THOSE CONSIDERATIONS, THE PLANNING COMMISSION
FOUND THE REQUEST CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF TAMPA
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
5:15:35PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
HEARING NONE.
APPLICANT?

IF YOU WOULD START WITH YOUR NAME, PLEASE.

MAY HAVE FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROPERTY.
5:16:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
VERY GOOD.
ANYTHING ELSE TO ADD TO THE PRESENTATION?
5:16:04PM >> NO.
I THINK IT WAS VERY THOROUGH AS FAR AS WHAT WE'RE WANTING TO
DO WITH THE PROPERTY AND USE.

5:16:13PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
5:16:14PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
ARE YOU BASICALLY TRYING TO VEST WHAT'S
THERE?
5:16:19PM >> CORRECT.
WE'RE WANTING TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS INSIDE THE BUILDING.
WE UNDERSTAND IT IS HISTORIC STRUCTURE.
WE'RE NOT WANTING TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS OR ANY
ALTERATIONS.
MAKE MODIFICATIONS INSIDE THE SPACE.
5:16:33PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THANK YOU.
5:16:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HEARING NONE, IS THERE ANYBODY IN THE
PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM?
WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.

I WANTED TO SHARE A FEW THINGS.
I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET WITH ALL THE DIVINE NINE
PRESIDENTS, WHICH WAS VERY NICE.
WE'VE HAD ALL OF THE DIVINE NINE HAVE BEEN IN TAMPA.
IT WAS SO NICE TO HEAR THEM TALK ABOUT JUST HOW MUCH THEY'VE
HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME HERE AND HOW THEY FELT SO WELCOMED TO
COME TO TAMPA.
DID A TOUR OF THE WEST RIVERWALK IN WEST TAMPA ON MAIN
STREET AND SAW SOME PROGRESS THAT'S ON ROME YARD.
I ALSO ATTENDED THE BRAIN BOWL AT DW WATERS WHICH ACTUALLY
INSIDE OF THE SCHOOL, THERE IS A JEFFERSON HIGH SCHOOL
HISTORIC MUSEUM INSIDE DW WATERS.
VERY COOL.
CHARLIE YOU CAME TO MIND WHEN WE WERE IN THERE.
I ATTENDED THE FIESTA DAY ON 7th AVENUE WHICH WAS AN
AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME EVENT.
IT WAS JUST SO GREAT TO SEE EVERYONE OUT AND ENJOYING THEIR
TIME.
ALSO FOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH, THERE WAS A BLACK LOVE CLASSIC
SERIES AT THE TAMPA THEATRE.
EACH SUNDAY THEY WERE PLAYING A CLASSICAL MOVIE AND THEY
WERE FEATURING DIFFERENT NONPROFITS.
SO THE LAST ONE WAS ON SUNDAY AND THEY HAD THE LINKS
FOUNDATION THERE.

THAT WAS ALSO VERY NICE.
THE MOVIE WAS CARMEN JONES.
IF YOU HAVEN'T HAD THE POPCORN AT TAMPA THEATRE, I DON'T
KNOW IF I WAS HUNGRY OR IT WAS REALLY GOOD, BUT IT WAS
REALLY, REALLY NICE TO TAKE PART IN THAT.
AT HANNA CENTER, WE DID TEN HISTORIC MARKER DEDICATIONS AND
UNVEILINGS.
VERY, VERY NICE.
YESTERDAY I ATTENDED TAMPA HEIGHTS CIVIC ASSOCIATION ROBLES
PARK VILLAGE REDEVELOPMENT.

BUILDERS WERE DOING DEMOLITION.
THEY WERE THERE TO EXPLAIN THEIR PROCESS.
WE TALKED ABOUT THE RELOCATION OF THE RESIDENTS AND THE
RESIDENTS HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO RETURN BACK TO ROBLES
PARK VILLAGE AND RETURNING RESIDENTS WILL HAVE ASSISTANCE
AND RELOCATION SUPPORT IF THEY WANT TO MOVE BACK TO THE
NEIGHBORHOOD.
ABOUT 1800 NEW UNITS.
