I'M HERE TONIGHT TO TALK ABOUT OUR ANNUAL ACTION PLAN.
THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING.
IT IS ONE OF THE FIRST OF TWO PUBLIC HEARINGS ON OUR ANNUAL
ACTION PLAN.
HERE WE GO.
SO TODAY ,WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE BACKGROUND, THE
PURPOSE OF THE ACTION PLAN, THE FUNDING RESOURCES THAT ARE
AVAILABLE, AND THE ACTION PLAN.
PRIORITY NEEDS THAT WILL BE SERVED THROUGH THE FUNDING OF
PROJECTS IN THE ACTION PLAN.
ALLOCATIONS FOR PROJECTS, CALENDAR AND TIMELINE FOR THE
PROCESS AND CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PROCESS AS WELL.
THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN IS A SUMMARY OF OUR FEDERAL GRANT
DOLLARS, OUR CDBG EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS, HOUSING WITH PERSONS
WITH AIDS, AND OUR HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM.
THIS IS PART OF OUR FIVE-YEAR CONSOLIDATED PLAN.
SO THIS WILL BE THE FIFTH YEAR OF THAT FIVE-YEAR
CONSOLIDATED STRATEGIC PLAN.
AGAIN, CDBG FUNDS PROJECTS THAT PROVIDE DEVELOPMENT, DECENT
HOUSING, LIVING PUBLIC SERVICE PROJECTS, DECENT SUITABLE
LIVING ENVIRONMENT -- EXCUSE ME -- ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES
FOR LOW TO MODERATE INCOME AT OR BELOW 80% AMI.
OUR EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS GRANT PROGRAM HAVE FUNDING
FOR HOMELESS OR THOSE AT RISK OF HOMELESSNESS.
OUR HOPWA PROGRAM IS A PROGRAM THAT SUPPORTS HOUSING
OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS WITH AIDS.
IT PROVIDES FUNDING FOR AGENCIES WITH HOUSING ASSISTANCE AND
SUPPORTIVE SERVICES.
WE SERVE A THREE-COUNTY AREA.
WE PREVIOUSLY SERVED A FOUR-COUNTY AREA, BUT HUD HAS
ALLOCATED FUNDS DIRECTLY TO THE CITY OF ST. PETERSBURG, AND
THEY WILL ALLOCATE FUNDS FOR PINELLAS COUNTY, SO WE ARE NOW
ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR PASCO, HILLSBOROUGH, AND HERNANDO
COUNTIES FOR OUR HOPWA FUNDS.
FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND NEW CONSTRUCTION, REHAB FOR
SINGLE FAMILY AND MULTIFAMILY PROJECTS.
AGAIN, OUR PRIORITY NEEDS THAT WERE DETERMINED AT OUR
CONSOLIDATED PLAN.
NEW CONSTRUCTION, REHABILITATION, MULTIFAMILY, SINGLE-FAMILY
HOUSING, SUPPORTIVE HOUSING OPERATIONS THROUGH OUR HOPWA
PROGRAMS AND OUR HOMELESS SUPPORT PROGRAMS.
PUBLIC SERVICE ASSISTANCE.
WE ARE MAXIMIZED FOR OUR CDBG DOLLARS AT 15% ALLOCATED
PUBLIC SERVICE AGENCIES THAT PROVIDE SERVICES FOR CHILD
CARE, HEALTH CARE, JOB TRAINING OR WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT,
EDUCATION PROGRAMS, ELDERLY, SPECIAL NEEDS AND HOMELESS
SERVICES.
PUBLIC FACILITIES AND INFRASTRUCTURE.
FOR BUILDINGS THAT SUPPORT PROJECTS THAT SUPPORT THE PUBLIC
SERVICE FOR THOSE SAME TYPES OF PROGRAMS.
AND THIS IS OUR ALLOCATION FOR THIS UPCOMING YEAR FOR OUR
FEDERAL FUNDS.
WE DID JUST NOTE OUR SHIP FUNDS, WHICH ARE STATE-ALLOCATED
FUNDS FOR OUR TOTAL GRANT BUDGET OF $11,445,497.
SO FOR OUR CALENDAR TIMELINE, WE DID RELEASE A REQUEST FOR
PROPOSALS OR REQUEST FOR ACTIONS FOR ALL THREE FEDERAL
DOLLARS.
OUR ESG FUNDS ARE PROVIDED TO TAMPA, HILLSBOROUGH HOMELESS
INITIATIVE, AND THEY ALLOCATE THEM FROM THERE.
WE ARE IN THE FINALIZING OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE
FUNDING.
SO TODAY, WE ARE REQUIRED TO HOLD TWO PUBLIC HEARINGS.
THIS IS THE FIRST.
WE WILL OPEN OUR 30-DAY PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD TODAY.
IT WILL RUNNING THROUGH JUNE, JULY 25 OF 2026.

ITEM NUMBER TWO.
05:16:28PM >>EMILY PHELAN:
EMILY PHELAN, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
ITEM NUMBER 2 IS FILE NO. TA/CPA 25-20, AND THIS ONE CAME
BEFORE YOU PREVIOUSLY WHERE I GAVE AN EXTENDED PRESENTATION
ON APRIL 23.
I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO GO THROUGH THE ENTIRE PRESENTATION OR
AN ABBREVIATED ONE.
WHATEVER COUNCIL'S PLEASURE IS.
05:17:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ABBREVIATED, PLEASE.
05:17:04PM >>EMILY PHELAN:
AS I SAID, FILE NO. TA/CPA 25-20.
IT IS LOCATED AT 1135 NORTH 46th STREET AND ASSOCIATED
PARCELS.
THIS IS PUBLICLY INITIATED.
IT IS A REGULAR SCALE AMENDMENT AND 62.8 ACRES AND REQUEST
TO GO FROM LIGHT INDUSTRIAL, HEAVY INDUSTRIAL, PUBLIC-SEMI
PUBLIC TO URBAN MIXED USE-60 AND COMMUNITY MIXED USE-35.
AND JUST AS A REMINDER, THE GENERAL LOCATION IS LOCATED HERE
IN THE UNIVERSITY PLANNING DISTRICT, TERRACE PARK
NEIGHBORHOOD, AND THE TAMPA GREEN TECH CORRIDOR.
THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE, WHICH IS OUTLINED IN
PINK.
AND PREVIOUS PLAN AMENDMENT THAT YOU HAVE HEARD BEFORE
WAS TA-CPA 25-19, WHICH WAS THE MOSI SITE ITSELF.
TO THE NORTH, THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA.
TO THE WEST IS SOME MULTIFAMILY.
TO THE SOUTH ARE INDUSTRIAL USES AND A PARK.
AND TO THE WEST ARE SOME COMMERCIAL USE ALONG FOWLER THAT
TRANSITION INTO RESIDENTIAL USES MOVING FURTHER SOUTH.
JUST AS A REFRESHER ON THIS SITE, THIS IS LOOKING EAST ON
NORTH 46th STREET TOWARD THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS THE DAY CARE LOCATED ON THE SUBJECT SITE.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ON FOWLER AVENUE.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ON NORTH 50th STREET AT THE ADJACENT
RESIDENTIAL USES.
THIS IS NORTHEAST AT THE INTERSECTION OF EAST FOWLER AVENUE
AND NORTH 50th STREET.
THIS IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
AGAIN, THE SUBJECT SITE IS OUTLINED HERE.
REPRESENTED WITH THE PUBLIC-SEMI-PUBLIC, LIGHT INDUSTRIA,L
AND HEAVY INDUSTRIAL DESIGNATIONS.
THIS IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
MAJORITY OF THE SUBJECT SITE IS THE URBAN MIXED USE 60
DESIGNATION AND COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35 IS THIS SOUTHWEST
CORNER.
UNDER THE EXISTING FUTURE LAND USE, RESIDENTIAL IS NOT
PERMITTED IN THE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL OR THE HEAVY INDUSTRIAL
DESIGNATIONS.
UNDER THE SEMI-PUBLIC, MAXIMUM IS NOT DEFINED.
LIGHT AND HEAVY INDUSTRIAL, THE SUBJECT SITE CAN BE
CONSIDERED FOR OVER 3.6 MILLION SQUARE FEET OF
NONRESIDENTIAL USES.
UNDER THE PROPOSED UMU-60 AND CMU-35 DESIGNATIONS, THE
SUBJECT SITE CAN BE CONSIDERED FOR 3400 DWELLING UNITS OR
8.2 MILLION SQUARE FEET OF RESIDENTIAL OR NONRESIDENTIAL
USES.
THIS AMENDMENT WOULD REMOVE ANY INDUSTRIAL USES POTENTIAL
ON-SITE.
THIS DID GO OUT TO OUR REVIEWING AGENCIES.
EPC MADE A COMMENT THAT COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL USES MAY
BE INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE PROPOSED FLUE.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND IT CONSISTENT AND PROMOTE
DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IN THE CITIZEN FORM STRATEGY.
AND WITH THAT, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THAT THE
PROPOSED AMENDMENT BE FOUND CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS,
OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
05:20:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
HEARING NONE.
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK -- APPLICANT,
SORRY.
05:20:16PM >> OKAY, I DO HAVE A POWERPOINT IF WE CAN KEY IT UP,
OTHERWISE I CAN GO THROUGH QUICK.
05:20:28PM >> YEAH.
05:20:29PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
QUICK IS GOOD.
05:20:31PM >> CLICK IS GOOD.
05:20:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE HAVE SEEN THIS PRESENTATION A LOT OF
TIMES.
05:20:34PM >> JUST TO REMIND --
05:20:36PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
START WITH YOUR NAME.
05:20:37PM >> MATT LEWIS, STANTECH.
05:20:40PM >> JOHN MUELLER, FACILITIES AND REAL ESTATE.
05:20:44PM >> PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP TO KIND OF TRANSFORM THE AREA
NEAR UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA WHERE MOSI IS RIGHT NOW.
I AM NOT GOING TO GO THROUGH THIS BECAUSE EMILY JUST WENT
THROUGH THIS SLIDE WITH YOU.
THE BRIEF RECAP OF THE HISTORY OF THE AREA FOUR GENERATIONS
AGO, A GREAT IDEA FOR THIS TO BE INDUSTRIAL.
A GENERATION AGO, NOT A GOOD IDEA TO STAY INDUSTRIAL.
TODAY, NOT A GOOD IDEA TO BE INDUSTRIAL.
SO THAT'S WHY WE ARE HERE AND WHY THE PLAN YOU TRANSMITTED
TO THE STATE SAYS SOMEBODY SHOULD MAKE THIS SOMETHING BUT
INDUSTRIAL.
A MIXED USE AREA WOULD BE GREAT, AND THAT IS WHAT WE PLAN TO
DO WITH THE AREA.
WHAT IT DOES IS CREATES A SERIES OF FUTURE TRANSIT-READY
STOPS ALONG FOWLER AVENUE WITH THE FOWLER AVENUE VISION PLAN
IN YOUR STAFF REPORT, AND THE AREA IS STILL AN ECONOMIC ENGINE,
SOMETHING THAT WOULD RELY ON INDUSTRIAL THAT NEVER HAPPENED
TO KIND OF A DESTINATION AREA THAT WILL SUPPORT FUTURE
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT JOBS.
THIS IS WHY IT IS AN ECONOMIC ENGINE.
YOU WILL SEE THOSE PINK SQUARES WHERE YOU WOULD GO TO ANY
OF THE REGIONAL DESTINATIONS, AND IT IS COMING OUT OF THE
AREA.
THIS AREA IS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF ALL OF THOSE PINK
SQUARES AND WITHIN BIKING DISTANCE OF MOFFITT CANCER CENTER,
BUSCH GARDENS, AND ADVENTURE ISLAND.
WITH THE PRINCIPLES AND UNIVERSITY PLANNING OPPORTUNITIES.
OUTCOMES, AS WE STATED EARLIER, ON A WALKABLE TRANSFORMATION OF
THE AREA WITH VACANT INDUSTRIAL AREA SURROUNDING MOSI TO A
WALKABLE MIXED USE DISTRICT PROVIDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY
TO SUPPORT THE MOSI MUSEUM ITSELF.
AND THANK YOU.
WE WELCOME YOUR CONSIDERATION FOR THIS AMENDMENT.
05:22:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU, ANY QUESTIONS.
COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA.
05:22:33PM >>LUIS VIERA:
MR. CHAIRMAN, NO, THANK YOU.
I HAVE BEEN EXCITED FOR THESE CHANGES.
BEEN ON CITY COUNCIL FOR NINE AND A HALF TO TEN YEARS IT HAS
BEEN GOING ON.
USF AND FOWLER AREA CORRIDOR.
A LOT OF DIFFERENT EFFORTS, YOU KNOW, ORGANIZATIONS, DIFFERENT
THINGS THAT TRY TO AFFECT CHANGE ON IT.
AND I AM REALLY GLAD TO SEE THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF LAND.
I GREW UP IN TEMPLE TERRACE ABOUT TEN MINUTES AWAY FROM
THERE.
SO I SPENT A LOT OF MY CHILDHOOD YEARS AT MOSI, BUT THIS IS
IMPORTANT.
IT IS ON US AS WELL AS OUR FRIENDS IN THE COUNTY COMMISSION
AND THE STATE TO MAKE SURE THAT WITH DEVELOPMENTS LIKE THIS,
THAT THE NORTH TAMPA AREA STAYS ONE OF THE FEW WELCOMING
AREAS IN THE CITY OF TAMPA WHERE WORKING-CLASS PEOPLE CAN
STILL -- AND MIDDLE-CLASS PEOPLE CAN AFFORD TO BUY HOUSES
AND HAVE HOMES, ETC.
SO WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE -- AGAIN, THIS IS WONDERFUL.
THIS IS GREAT.
GOING TO BE A RISING TIDE.
LIFT BOATS IN THE AREA.
05:23:25PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BUT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE, AGAIN, AS I USED TO
ALWAYS SAY WITH WORKING PEOPLE OF TAMPA.
THIS IS GREAT, AND I AM GLAD TO SUPPORT THIS, AND THANK YOU
FOR YOUR WORK.

PRIVATELY INITIATED.
SMALL SCALE.
.39 ACRES FOR A LAND USE DESIGNATION.
05:25:35PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HOLD ON A SECOND.
CCTV, CAN YOU GET THIS ON THE COUNCIL MONITORS.
05:25:41PM >> LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TO URBAN MIXED USE-60 FUTURE LAND USE
DESIGNATION.
THIS AMENDMENT IS LOCATED WITHIN THE CENTRAL PLANNING
DISTRICT, HISTORIC YBOR, LOCAL YBOR CITY DISTRICT, AS WELL AS
THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREA.
THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE SHOWING THE SITE
OUTLINED IN YELLOW.
SURROUNDING AREA INCLUDES INDUSTRIAL USES DIRECTLY TO THE
EAST AND SOUTH, AS WELL AS FURTHER EAST ALONG ADAMO DRIVE.
TO THE NORTH AND WEST ARE SCATTERED COMMERCIAL USES AS WELL
AS RESIDENTIAL.
FURTHER NORTH OF EAST SECOND AVENUE.
WHILE THE SUBJECT SITE IS NOT WITHIN THE YBOR CITY CENTER,
THOSE ACTIVITIES LIE TO THE NORTH AND SOUTH OF THE SITE
RESPECTIVELY.
STARTING WITH OUR SUBJECT SITE PHOTOS, THERE ARE IS LOOKING
DIRECTLY AT THE SUBJECT SITE FROM NORTH 17th STREET.
THIS IS LOOKING AT INDUSTRIAL USES ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE
SUBJECT SITE WITH THE SUBJECT SITE BEHIND THE CAMERA.
THIS IS LOOKING AT COMMERCIAL USES ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE
SUBJECT SITE WITH THE SUBJECT SITE BEHIND THE CAMERA AS
WELL.
THIS IS LOOKING SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE AT THE SELMON
EXPRESSWAY OVERPASS.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ALONG ADAMO DRIVE.
THIS IS LOOKING EAST ALONG -- AND THIS IS LASTLY LOOKING
EAST ALONG ADAMO DRIVE.
HERE, WE REFERENCED A HISTORIC MAP TAKEN FROM 26-06 BEFORE IT
WAS APPROVED TO CHANGE THE AREA OUTLINED IN PINK FROM HEAVY
INDUSTRIAL TO THE URBAN MIXED USE-60 THAT YOU WILL SEE ON
THE NEXT SLIDE.
THIS GIVES SOME PERSPECTIVE ON THE TRANSITION FROM
INDUSTRIAL TO MIXED USE DESIGNATIONS OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS.
AS A RESULT OF MULTIPLE PLAN AMENDMENTS IN THE SURROUNDING
AREA 06-26 AND 07-03.
AND PLAN AMENDMENT 22-08 WHICH APPROVED MULTIPLE PARCELS
TO UMU-60, INCLUDING ONE DIRECTLY NORTH OF OUR SUBJECT SITE.
THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP WITH THE SUBJECT SITE
OUTLINED DIRECTLY TO THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST ARE LIGHT AND
HEAVY INDUSTRIAL MIXED USE CATEGORIES INCLUDING UMU-65
CMU-35, GMU 24, AND CC-35 COMPRISE REST OF THE AREA
TO THE NORTH, EAST, SOUTH, AND WEST.
TEAL LINE OF THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREA.
THIS PORTION IS IN THAT AREA AND OVER 75% WITHIN.
THIS IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP SHOWING THE
PROPOSED URBAN MIXED USE-60 DESIGNATION.
UNDER THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE, THE SITE IS NOT ELIGIBLE
FOR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.
CURRENTLY, THE SITE CAN BE CONSIDERED FOR 25,482 SQUARE FEET
OF INDUSTRIAL USES.
UNDER THE PROPOSED UMU-60 DESIGNATION SITE MAY BE CONSIDERED
FOR 33 RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS AND 55,211 SQUARE FEET
OF RESIDENTIAL OR NONRESIDENTIAL USES.
THIS AMENDMENT WILL BRING THE AMENDMENT FOR RESIDENTIAL USES
AND ALLOW RESIDENTIAL AND NONRESIDENTIAL SQUARE FOOTAGE AND
REMOVE THE CONSIDERATION OF INDUSTRIAL USES.
THE APPLICATION WAS SENT TO OUR PARTNER AGENCIES, AND THERE
WERE NO OBJECTIONS TO THE REQUEST.
THE CITY OF TAMPA PLANNING DEPARTMENT FOUND IT COMPARABLE
AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA AND NOTICED THE
POTENTIAL CONFLICT BETWEEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE
REQUIREMENTS AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SITE.
THIS AMENDMENT ALSO WENT BEFORE THE BARRIO LATINO COMMISSION
THIS PAST TUESDAY AND WAS RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION CONSIDERED INDUSTRIAL PRESERVATION
POLICIES AS THE SITE IS CURRENT HERE UNDER THE LIGHT
INDUSTRIAL FLUE DESIGNATION AND POLICIES RELATED TO THE
COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AND IS WITHIN THE CHHA SINCE THE
PERCENTAGE WITHIN IS BELOW 50%.
AS NOTED AS OUR STAFF REPORT, DUE TO MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS OF
DEVELOPMENT IN THE IG ZONING CATEGORY, THE PARCEL IS
UNLIKELY TO ALLOW FOR DEVELOPMENT OF A TRUE EMPLOYMENT
GENERATING INDUSTRIAL USE DUE TO THIS FACTOR AS WELL AS THE
DOCUMENTED TREND TOWARD MIXED USE, STAFF FOUND THAT THE
SUBJECT SITE IS FAVORABLE FOR THE REQUESTED INCREASE IN
DENSITY AND REMOVAL OF THE CONSIDERATION OF THE INDUSTRIAL
USES ON THE SITE.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT IS RECOMMENDED TO BE FOUND CONSISTENT
WITH THE POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN,
INCLUDING POLICY RELATED TO COMPATIBILITY AND SURROUNDING
DEVELOPMENT PATTERN, PROMOTION OF DENSITIES, SUPPORTED OF
MIXED USE AND TRANSIT AND ENCOURAGING ADEQUATE HOUSING
SUPPLY AND ADEQUATE DEVELOPMENT AS THIS AREA IS NOTED TO BE
IN TRANSITION TO A MORE MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN WEST
OF NORTH 1st STREET.
PLANNING COMMISSION DOES RECOMMEND THAT THE PROPOSED MAP
AMENDMENT BE FOUND CONSISTENT, AND THIS CONCLUDES MY
PRESENTATION.
AND I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
05:30:43PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
HEARING NONE.
APPLICANT?
05:31:06PM >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.
ALEX SCHALER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
I WILL KEEP THIS ONE VERY SHORT.
I HAVE A COUPLR OTHER ONES TO COME BACK BEFORE YOU.
MEG SET THIS UP VERY WELL.
WE CAME BEFORE YOU ALL OR COUNCIL WITH A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
AMENDMENT FOR A LARGE PORTION OF LAND.
WE SPLIT IT UP INTO TWO SECTIONS.
WE HAVE THIS PORTION OF LAND THAT IS NORTH OF ADAMO DRIVE
AND WHAT IS KNOWN AS YBOR HARBOR.
AT THE TIME, WE WERE IN PROCESS OF ACQUIRING THIS SMALL
STRIP OF WHAT LOOKS TO BE RIGHT-OF-WAY, BUT IT IS NOT, IT IS
PRIVATELY OWNED LAND.
WE DID NOT HAVE THAT IN CONTROL AT THAT TIME AND WAS NOT
INCLUDED IN THIS APPLICATION.
GOING BACK THROUGH OUR FILES WE WANTED TO GET IN CLEANED UP
AND EXTEND THE UMU-60 ON THE NORTHERN PORTION JUST TO EXTEND
THAT DOWN TO CAPTURE THIS REMAINING TRIP AS ADAMO.
IT IS CURRENTLY USES AS PARKING ON ADAMO DRIVE.
THERE IS A BROADER CONCERN OF LOSS INDUSTRIAL LAND, AND THAT IS
UNDERSTOOD.
GIVEN THE SITE, NOTHING WE COULD REASONABLY ACCOMMODATE,
GIVEN THE FOOTPRINT, LESS THAN HALF AN ACRE.
LOCATED IN THE TRANSIT EMPHASIS CORRIDOR AND HAS TRENDED TO
MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT IN THE PAST.
THE PLANNING COMMISSION BOARD FOUND THIS APPLICATION
CONSISTENT, AND THE BLC RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL EARLIER THIS
WEEK AS WELL.
AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE.
BUT I AM HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS.
05:32:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:

05:34:06PM >>ROSS SAMONS:
ROSS SAMONS, LAND DEVELOPMENT, AND THE APPLICANT
YBOR, REPRESENTATIVE IS GARDENER BREWER HUDSON.
SOUTH OF 7th AVENUE, EAST OF 23rd STREET AND WEST
7th STREET.
THIS APPLICATION WAS FILED FEBRUARY 9, 2026.
RIGHT-OF-WAY IS UNAPPROVED.
RIGHT-OF-WAY WAS CREATED BY SUBDIVISION PLAT.
EXISTING RIGHT-OF-WAY IS APPROXIMATELY 3500 SQUARE FEET.
THE REASON FOR THE REQUEST -- THE REQUESTED ALLEY VACATIONS
ARE NECESSARY TO FACILITATE THE COMPREHENSIVE UNIFIED
REDEVELOPMENT AND THE SURROUNDING BLOCKS THAT WILL
SUBSTANTIALLY IMPROVE PUBLIC SAFETY, INFRASTRUCTURE AND
EFFICIENCY AND LONG-TERM LAND USE COMPATIBILITY OF
ELIMINATING UNDERUTILIZED RIGHT-OF-WAY THAT NO LONGER SERVE
AS ESSENTIAL PUBLIC FUNCTION.
AND THIS IS RELATED TO THE PROPOSED REZONING REZ 26-28.
THIS IS A PROPOSED VACATING REQUEST.
ALLEYWAY IN YELLOW.
APPLICANT'S PROPERTY IS IN RED.
CITY OF TAMPA SHEET SHOWING BLOCK 19 HERE.
CSX IS HERE.
7th IS HERE.
THE PLAT OF EAST YBOR, WHICH THE ALLEY WAS DEDICATED.
HERE IS AN IMAGE OF THE GENERAL LOCATION OF THE ALLEY
LOCATED EAST OF 23rd STREET.
AND THE GENERAL LOCATION ALONG THE POLE LINE -- WHERE THE
GENERAL LOCATION OF ALLEY LOOKING WEST FROM 24th STREET.
STAFF HAS NO OBJECTIONS TO THIS VACATING REQUEST.
EASEMENT RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED BY TECO, SPECTRUM,
FRONTIER AND WASTEWATER.
WHAT I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT IS IT WAS HEARD BY THE
BARRIO LATINO COMMISSION, AND THEY DID RECOMMEND THE APPROVAL
OF THIS VACATING.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS.
NATURAL RESOURCES COMPLIED WITH CHAPTER 27 TREE PRESERVATION
AND SITE DESIGN FOR ANY IMPROVEMENTS PLACED ADJACENT TO TREES
IN A VACATED AREA.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.
AND I AM AVAILABLE YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
05:36:33PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY QUESTIONS?
HEARING NONE.
APPLICANT.
WE DID SO WELL LAST TIME, LET'S KEEP IT ON THE ROLL.
05:36:43PM >> YOU GUYS TOLD ME I USED TO TALK TOO FAST.
05:36:46PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
YOU NEVER HEARD ME SAY THAT, EVER.
NOBODY HAS EVER HEARD ME SAY THAT.
05:36:50PM >> ALEX SCHALER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE FOR THE RECORD.
AS ROSS MENTIONED, THIS RIGHT-OF-WAY VACATING IS IN SERVICE
OF OUR PD-A REZONING, WHICH YOU WILL HEAR A COUPLE OF ITEMS
FROM NOW, BUT I DID WANT TO GIVE YOU SOME CONTEXT AND
FORESHADOWING SOME OF THESE LARGER MAPS AND IMPORTANT TO SEE
WHERE THIS ALLEY IS LOCATED.
SINGULARILY, WE ARE PROPOSING TO VACATE IN CONJUNCTION
WITH THE PD-A WHICH IS HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW WITH THE RED STARS.
YOU CAN SEE IT IS PRETTY CENTRAL -- GOT IT, OKAY.
PRETTY CENTRAL TO THE LARGER DEVELOPMENT.
THIS IS IN ANOTHER GRAPHIC.
IT IS OUTLINED IN YELLOW THERE WITH THE OTHER KIND OF TYPE A
AND TYPE B STREETS SHOWN AS WELL.
SO WE FEEL THERE IS INHERENT JUSTIFICATION FOR THIS.
THE PRIME REASON IS THAT GIVEN WHERE IT IS LOCATED -- I WILL
COME BACK UP HERE.
GIVEN WHERE IT IS LOCATED CENTRAL TO THE DEVELOPMENT AND A
FULL BLOCK, BEING ABLE TO USE THAT FOR STRUCTURED PARKING IS
PRETTY CRITICAL FOR DEVELOPMENT, AND I KNOW WE HAVE OUR
LARGER OPINIONS ABOUT PARKING, BUT WE ARE REDEVELOPING
A VERY LARGE DISTRICT LIKE THIS.
THIS IS 55 DIFFERENT PARCELS.
WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE PARKING ON INDIVIDUAL LOTS.
ONE OF THE WHOLE POINTS WE WANTED TO DO A PD-A FOR
CENTRALIZED PARKING, AND THIS SITE IS VERY WELL-SUITED FOR
THAT.
BLC DID HEAR THIS AND RECOMMENDED APPROVAL FOR SAME REASON.
WE SHOWED THEM THE OVERALL VISION.
AND THEY ACTUALLY HAD US ADD A CONDITION TO THE ALLEY
VACATING THAT WE DID -- WE MATERIALIZED THIS ON THE PD-A
SITE PLAN.
THEY ASKED THAT WE PUT A PLAQUE ON THE PARKING GARAGE, WHICH
I THOUGHT WAS VERY UNIQUE WHICH -- I HAVEN'T HEARD THAT BEFORE.
PUT A PLAQUE THAT WOULD PAY HOMAGE TO THE FACT THAT THE
ALLEY DID EXIST.
WHILE WE WON'T BE CARRYING THE ALLEY IN THE FUTURE IN TERMS OF
THE OPERATION, IT WILL BE MEMORIALIZED THERE WHERE IT
EXISTED IN HISTORY, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS GREAT.
STAFF DIDN'T HAVE ANY OBJECTIONS AND NEITHER REVIEWING
DEPARTMENTS TO THE REQUEST.
ALL IS ALL I HAVE, BUT I AM HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
05:38:54PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY QUESTIONS?

AMPLIFIED NOISE?
05:53:52PM >>LEO DEBARDELEBEN:
I BELIEVE THERE IS A NOTE ON THE SITE

CUE APPLICANT.
05:54:32PM >> DAVID SMITH, 401 EAST JACKSON STREET, STEARNS WEAVER
MILLER, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT AND ZONING FOR THE APPLICANT.
LEIO DID A GOOD JOB IN ORIENTATION.
PRETTY EXCITED ABOUT THIS COMING FORWARD.
ALL OF ENCORE, ALL THE LOTS ARE SOLD.
I WAS ORIGINALLY THE PLANNER THAT DEVELOPED AND GOT THE PD
ZONING APPROVED IN 2008 FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT TO MOVE
FORWARD.
WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET A GROCERY STORE IN THE LOCATION
FOR QUITE SOME TIME.
FINALLY HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL WITH THE CURRENT DEVELOPER, AND
THAT'S REALLY WHAT THE ANCHOR OF THIS REQUEST IS.
HERE IS THE LOCATION.
HERE IS ENCORE DEVELOPMENT IN GENERAL.
PUTTING SITE PLAN BACK UP THAT WAS SHOWN TO YOU PREVIOUSLY.
WE HAVE A VERY SMALL OUTDOOR SPACE, 671 SQUARE FEET.
ONLY ACCESS DIRECTLY FROM INSIDE THE GROCERY STORE.
AS FAR AS THE HOURS GO, I DID CONFIRM WITH THE APPLICANT
THAT THE GROCERY STORE IS GOING TO OPERATE FROM ABOUT 7 A.M.
TO 9 P.M. SEVEN DAYS A WEEK.
THE LIQUOR STORE WILL BE 11:00 TO 9:00, SUNDAYS THROUGH
WEDNESDAY AND THEN GO TO 10:00.
SO THIS IS NOT A LARGE VENUE BAR OPERATION.
THE LARGE VENUE IS FOR SIP AND STROLL, JUST LIKE YOU HAVE IN
PUBLIX AND OTHER PARTS -- WHOLE FOODS AND THAT IS THE INTENT
OF THE REQUEST.
SMALL LIQUOR STORE COMPANION WITH THE GROCERY STORE IS
UNIQUE.
ABOUT 22,000 SQUARE FEET TOTAL.
WILL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.
05:56:20PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
05:56:21PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
JUST BECAUSE WE ARE REALLY TRYING TO PROTECT
THE POSSIBILITIES BECAUSE THIS ALCOHOL ZONING RUNS WITH
THE LAND.
WILL THEY BE WILLING TO DO 6 A.M. TO MIDNIGHT?
SORT OF WIDENING WHAT THEY MIGHT NEED GIVING A LITTLE BIT OF
PARAMETERS IF INDEED SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN AND THIS MIGHT
CHANGE USE.
WOULD THAT BE SOMETHING AMENABLE?
05:56:46PM >> I WOULD HAVE TO CONFIRM WITH THEM.
BEFORE I CAME, I ASKED THEM OF THE INTENDED HOURS OF
OPERATION WHICH IS WHAT I INDICATED APPEAR MUCH TIGHTER --
05:56:57PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I THOUGHT WIDER WOULD BE BETTER IN CASE IT
ENDED UP BECOMING SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
05:57:01PM >> AGAIN, IS MORE PALATABLE TO THE RESIDENTS AROUND THEM.
THAT SEEMS REASONABLE.
05:57:07PM >> THAT IS SOMETHING I WILL HAVE TO CONFIRM WITH THEM
EXACTLY.
I AM PRETTY SURE THEY ARE NOT GOING TO BE
COMFORTABLE WITH IT, BECAUSE THEY WERE READY TO COMMIT TO
THESE HOURS.
05:57:16PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
HOW ABOUT BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING?
05:57:19PM >> BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING, I CAN GET THAT
CONFIRMATION FROM THE APPLICANT.
05:57:25PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
HOW DO WE BEST DO THAT?
05:57:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
STAFF, IF THE APPLICANT IS NOT READY TO
CONFIRM THAT AT THIS POINT, HOW DO WE --
05:57:37PM >>LEO DEBARDELEBEN:
BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING, WE CAN
ADD A CONDITION, IF THEY DO AGREE WITH IT, THAT WILL BE ONE
OF THE CHANGES.
05:57:45PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
OKAY.
05:57:46PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
COUNCIL, LaCHONE DOCK, LAND DEVELOPMENT
COORDINATION.
I WANT TO STATE ON THE RECORD AND PLACE ON THE RECORD, IS
COUNCIL OKAY IF THE -- IF HE SPEAKS WITH HIS CLIENT, AND HE
DOES NOT WANT TO CHANGE THOSE HOURS?
WHAT WOULD BE THE DIRECTION OF COUNCIL AT THAT POINT?
05:58:11PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THAT'S WHY I AM ASKING, BECAUSE I AM NOT
COMFORTABLE WITH CHAPTER 14.
I AM NOT -- BECAUSE THAT GOES TO 3 A.M.
AND, AGAIN, WE JUST -- LIKE, THAT DOESN'T NEED THAT FOR A
GROCERY STORE, BUT I AM WILLING -- I THINK IT IS FINE TO
WIDEN IT IN CASE IT BECOMES A FULL RESTAURANT OR SOMETHING
LIKE THAT, BUT 3 A.M. IS REALLY HARD FOR A
24,000-SQUARE-FOOT PIECE --
05:58:39PM >> NO INTENT ON THE APPLICANT'S PART TO --
05:58:42PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SURE, BUT IN 20 YEARS, YOU JUST NEVER KNOW.
SO, AGAIN, I THINK WE ARE ALL TRYING TO BE MORE COGNIZANT AS
WE DEVELOP THAT THE REST OF THE NEIGHBORS WILL HAVE A GOOD
NEIGHBOR.
AND, AGAIN, I MEAN, YOU JUST DON'T KNOW.
05:58:57PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THE SENSE IS BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND
READING, SPEAK WITH THE APPLICANT AND TAKE YOUR CHANCES.
05:59:02PM >> YEAH, I MEAN, AGAIN, IF THEY WERE -- IF THEY WERE HERE
RIGHT NOW I WOULD CONFIRM IMMEDIATELY, BUT I KNOW THEY HAD
STATED THESE WERE THE HOURS OF OPERATION.
SO IF YOU -- IF IT IS THE PLEASURE, I THINK THE COMMITMENT
-- THAT WE WOULD COMMIT TO THESE HOURS OF OPERATIONS AND
CONFIRM BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING REGARDING THE 6
A.M. TO --
05:59:26PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
MIDNIGHT.
05:59:27PM >> MIDNIGHT?
05:59:29PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I DON'T EVEN KNOW.
WHAT TIME DOES A GROCERY STORE OPEN, 8 OR 7?
05:59:34PM >> GROCERY STORE OPENS AT 7:
00.
05:59:38PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
7 A.M. TO MIDNIGHT, HOW IS THAT?
05:59:44PM >> BEYOND WHAT THEY SAID THEY WOULD OPERATE.
05:59:47PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE WILL MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT.
HEARING FROM COUNCIL, BUT WE WILL MOVE FORWARD WITH FIRST
READING TONIGHT.
OKAY, VERY GOOD.
05:59:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK:

FIND THE REQUEST INCONSISTENT WITH APPLICABLE CITY OF TAMPA
LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS DUE TO THE REQUESTED WAIVER FOR
DISTANCE SEPARATION ALONG -- FROM ANOTHER ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE
ESTABLISHMENT.
TRANSPORTATION STAFF WAS CONSISTENT.

SECOND READING.
THE SUPPLEMENTAL -- LIMITING ALCOHOL BEVERAGE SALES HOURS
FOR ALL AB SALES LOCATION NO LATER THAN 1 A.M. AND
RESTRICTING APS USES TO NO MORE THAN TWO LOCATIONS AS

AND I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
06:07:18PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:07:19PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
CAN YOU PLEASE PUT THE SITE PLAN BACK UP?
06:07:29PM >>LEO DEBARDELEBEN:
SHOW ME WHERE THE 39,000 SQUARE FEET OF
OUTDOOR SPACE IS.
06:07:35PM >>LEO DEBARDELEBEN:
THERE IS SOME OUTDOOR AREA HERE AND
THIS PASEO, WHICH IS HERE.
06:07:41PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING, THESE OUTDOOR AREAS,
THE AMPLIFIED NOISE WILL HAVE TO STOP AT 10 P.M.
06:07:49PM >>LEO DEBARDELEBEN:
IF IT IS A BAR/LOUNGE USE.
THAT IS WHAT THEY --
06:07:55PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YOU SAID BAR/LOUNGE USE NOISE
PROHIBITED AND 10 P.M. FOR ANY AMPLIFIED NOISE.
WILL THAT INCLUDE THE PASEO?
I CAN ASK THE APPLICANT TOO IF I AM GET TOO FAR IN THE
WEEDS.
AND THE OTHER THING I JUST WANTED TO SEE, BECAUSE THIS IS AN
ABSOLUTE INSANE AMOUNT OF SQUARE FOOTAGE OF ALCOHOL, CAN YOU
SHOW ME EXACTLY WHERE -- I COULDN'T TELL BY THE SITE PLAN
WHERE -- WHAT IS BEING WET ZONED.
IS IT EVERY SINGLE INCH?
06:08:31PM >> YES, MA'AM.
IT IS THE TOTAL FOOTPRINT.
MOST OF THESE, I BELIEVE -- AND THE APPLICANT CAN SPEAK TO
THAT.
MOST OF THIS IS ON THE GROUND FLOOR COMMERCIAL PORTIONS OF
THE BUILDING.
AND THEN -- SO IF THEY HAVE A TENANT THAT GOES IN WITH THE
RESTAURANT USE, THEN THOSE -- THEN THAT TOTAL SQUARE FOOTAGE
WILL BE DEDUCTED FROM THAT.
06:08:50PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I WILL ASK THE APPLICANT BECAUSE I AM VERY
UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THIS.
06:08:55PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA, DO YOU HAVE
SOMETHING TO SAY?
[INAUDIBLE]
06:09:08PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
OKAY, APPLICANT?
06:09:26PM >> ALEX SCHALER, 400 NORTH ASHLEY DRIVE.
I HAVE DAMIAN HERE WITH KELLER HERE AS WELL.
ALL BOTH PART OF THE GASWORX PROJECT.
LEO SET THIS.
THESE ARE LEGALLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
THEY ARE FLYING OUT OF THE GROUND.
E-1, AND 3.
E STANDS FOR THE LARGER PART OF THE PD-A.
CSX RAIL TRACKS TO THE NORTH AND 14th STREET TO THE EAST.
YOU CAN'T SEE IT IN THIS PHOTO BECAUSE OF THE BUILDINGS.
BUT CHANNELSIDE DRIVE IS BOUNDING THESE ON WEST.
AND SECOND AVENUE TO THE SOUTH.
THIS MIGHT GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF COLOR IN TERMS OF THE
SITE PLAN.
SO I CAN KIND OF WALK THROUGH THIS IN A LITTLE BIT MORE
DETAIL.
INDOOR, I HAVE SHADED IN THE LIGHT PINK AND OUTDOOR IN BLUE.
IN TERMS WHAT EXACTLY ARE WET ZONING, YES, E-1 IS A
MULTIFAMILY BUILDING.
ENTIRE GROUND FLOOR IS RETAIL MIXED USES THERE.
SO, YES, WE ARE WET ZONING THIS GROUNDS FLOOR THAT WRAPS
AROUND THE PODIUM PARKING GARAGE THAT YOU CAN SEE IN THE
MIDDLE.
E-2, THIS BUILDING HERE ON THE LEFT.
THIS IS GOING TO BE A MARKET HALL BUILDING.
SO THINK KIND OF SIMILAR TO ARMATURE WORKS.
NOT EXISTING WAREHOUSE THAT WE ARE USING SO A LARGE BULK OF
THE WET ZONING AREA AS WELL.
THAT WILL BE INDOORS.
AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE SOME OUTDOOR SALES AREA ASSOCIATED
WITH THAT TO, ASSOCIATED TO WEST THERE.
THIS BUILDING HERE CLOSEST TO 14th STREET IS GOING TO BE THE
OFFICE.
WE ARE WETTING THE GROUND FLOOR OF THAT.
AND PORTION OF THE FIFTH FLOOR WILL BE A ROOF TOP.
YOU CAN KINDS OF SEE IN THE PHOTO -- I DON'T KNOW IF YOU SEE
MY MOUSE, BUT THE OUTDOOR ROOFTOP AREA PORTION OF THE FIFTH
FLOOR CONTRIBUTING TO THE OUTDOOR FOOTAGE AS WELL.
AS LEO MENTIONED, THE PASEO IS A PRIVATE, VEHICULAR, AND
NONPEDESTRIAN ACTIVATED.
BUILDING E-3 IS A MULTIFAMILY BUILDING AS WELL WITH AN
ACTIVATED GROUND PLANE WETTING THIS AREA AROUND THE PARKING
GARAGE.
THIS NEXT SLIDE -- YES, I DO WANT TO NOTE THAT WE UNDERSTAND
THIS IS A LOT OF SQUARE FOOTAGE, COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD.
THIS IS THE MAXIMUM AND IN DISCUSSIONS WITH THE RETAIL
LEASING TEAM, WE -- WE ARE NOT CONFIDENT WHATSOEVER THAT ALL
OF THIS AREA IS GOING TO END UP WET.
SOME OF THIS WILL BE RETAIL.
IT WON'T BE LIKE WEDDING DRESS SHOPS WHERE THEY HAVE GLASSES
OF WINE AVAILABLE.
NOT ALL HAVE THIS AND IS GOING TO BE WET, BUT IN TERMS OF --
DAMIAN, YOU CAN SPEAK TO THIS LITTLE BIT BETTER THAN I CAN,
SELECTING SPECIFIC TENANTS AND MOVING AROUND FOR DIFFERENT
SPACES, WE DIDN'T WANT TO GET TO THE SITUATION WHERE WE ARE
COMING TO YOU ALL FOR EVERY SINGLE BOX THAT WE HAVE.
WE THOUGHT IF WE GET THE GROUND FLOOR WET, WE ARE KIND OF
ALLOWED TO MOVE TENANTS AS NEED BE INTO DIFFERENT SPACES.
THESE ARE THE LIST OF PERMITTED USES THAT WE ARE INCLUDING
IN THE WET ZONING.
AGAIN, THIS IS PRETTY WIDE BREADTH OF USES.
GENERAL COMMERCIAL USES THAT WE CAN SEE NOT ONLY WITHIN THE
DEVELOPMENT BUT MORE SPECIFICALLY ON THE GROUND FLOOR.
AGAIN, THIS IS HEAVILY RETAIL AND RESTAURANT USES.
BUT WE WANTED TO COVER OUR BASES AND HAVE PERSONAL
SERVICES, COMMERCIAL REC, STUFF LIKE THAT AS WELL.
THIS WAS MENTIONED BUT, YES, WE ARE COMMITTED TO PROHIBITING
SALES PAST 1 A.M. FOR ALL BLOCKS AND ALL USES AND THEN
AMPLIFIED SOUND, YES, THAT IS PROHIBITED PAST 10 P.M. INDOOR
AND OUTDOOR -- ACTUALLY THIS IS OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND, NOT
INDOOR.
NOT PAST 10 P.M. AND IMPLEMENTING THAT FOR THE BAR/LOUNGE
USE OUTDOOR.
06:13:01PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.
06:13:05PM >>BILL CARLSON:
YOUR TEAM USUALLY COMES UP WITH VERY
CREATIVE LEGAL IDEAS.
TO THE POINT OF ALL THIS SPACE.
IS THERE ANY SOLUTION THAT SAYS WITHIN A GIVEN AMOUNT OF
SPACE, CERTAIN NUMBER OF SQUARE FEET WILL BE ALLOCATED THAT
COULD FLOAT DEPENDING ON WHERE IT IS?
ANY KIND OF FLEXIBLE AGREEMENT SO IT IS NOT JUST BLANKET?
06:13:27PM >> IT IS REALLY TOUGH WITH THE WAY THAT THE CITY DOES THESE
WET ZONING LEGAL DESCRIPTION.
LIKE, FOR EXAMPLE, IN ST. PETE, YOU CAN GO AND FILE FOR THE
ADDRESS AND THE SAME DAY HAVE A WET ZONING APPROVED WITHOUT
A LEGAL DESCRIPTION.
WE HAVE TO HAVE A LEGAL DESCRIPTION TIED TO EVERY SINGLE WET
SQUARE FOOT.
MAKES IT TOUGH TO KIND OF HAVE FLOATING SPACE.
BUT HEARD YOU ON THAT ONE.
I AM GOING TO HAVE DAMIAN COME UP AND SPEAK A LITTLE BIT.
06:13:51PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANOTHER QUESTION, COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:13:53PM >> OF COURSE.
06:13:55PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
CAN YOU GO BACK A COUPLE OF SLIDES.
A, WITH THE OFFICE ROOF DECK, IS THAT GOING TO FOLLOW THE 10
P.M. AMPLIFIED NOISE OR CAN WE SIMPLY NOT HAVE NO AMPLIFIED
NOISE ON ROOF DECK?
06:14:11PM >> DO YOU KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT, DAMIAN?
06:14:14PM >> NOT AT THIS TIME.
06:14:15PM >> I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE IF THAT IS GOING TO BE CLASSIFIED
AS A BAR/LOUNGE OR GOING TO BE A RESTAURANT.
THAT IS MY THOUGHT.
IF THEY ARE SERVING FOOD, IF THAT QUALIFIES AS A
RESTAURANT, THEY WOULD BE ALLOWED TO DO IT UNTIL 10 P.M.
AND NOT BE PROHIBITED.
06:14:30PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BUT, AGAIN, IT COULD BE A RESTAURANT TODAY,
BUT IN 20 YEARS, IT IS A NIGHT CLUB.
06:14:36PM >> SURE, YEAH.
06:14:37PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
AMPLIFIED UNTIL 10 P.M. AND BOTHERING THE
PEOPLE WHO LIVE NEXT DOOR WHO HAVE SMALL CHILDREN.
LIKE, AGAIN, I WISH WE DID NOT HAVE TO DO THIS, BUT IT
RUNNING WITH THE LAND, AND YBOR SPECIFICALLY IS AN AREA THAT
WE ARE TRYING TO WALK AWAY FROM THE -- NIGHT CLUB
EDIFICATION WHICH BRINGS ME TO THE MARKET HALL BUILDING AND
THAT IS THE ONE I AM MOST CONCERNED ABOUT.
06:15:05PM >> SURE.
FOR THE ROOFTOP WE ARE COVERED IN THAT SENSE WE ARE NOT
HAVING OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND SO I THINK WE ARE GOOD THERE.
06:15:15PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
NO BAR/LOUNGE ON THE ROOF DECK.
I GUESS THAT IS MY QUESTION, HOW DO WE -- HOW ARE YOU GOING
TO EACH INDIVIDUAL SPACE AND SAYING, THIS IS GOING TO BE THE
BAR/LOUNGE, THIS IS GOING TO BE THIS AND THAT.
RIGHT NOW YOU ARE TELLING ME NOT A BAR/LOUNGE BUT HOW DO WE
KNOW THAT BECAUSE IT IS NOT ON THE SITE PLAN.
06:15:37PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IF IT IS A BAR/LOUNGE, ON-SITE PLAN SAYS
NO AMPLIFIED.
06:15:45PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SITE PLAN DOES NOT SAY IT IS A RESTAURANT.
THIS IS AB SALES USES.
IT COULD BE ANY OF THESE MIXES.
06:15:52PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
BUT IF IT IS A BAR/LOUNGE WILL --
06:15:58PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I KNOW, BUT --
06:16:00PM >> IT IS HARD EARLY IN THIS STAGE -- WE ARE WORKING WITH
POTENTIAL TENANTS TO PIN DOWN WHICH USE GOES WHERE.
BUT I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN ABOUT, YOU KNOW -- AN I THINK
THAT BETWEEN READINGS.
I DON'T WANT TO SPEAK FOR DAMIAN, I THINK -- IF THERE ARE
CONCERNS OF CERTAIN SPACES BEING BLANKET BAR/LOUNGE.
WE CAN ADD A SQUARE FOOTAGE CAP TO MAKE YOU MORE
COMFORTABLE.
06:16:25PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
31,6900 SQUARE FEET ALCOHOL PERMIT UNTIL 1
A.M., YOU JUST DON'T KNOW.
AND AGAIN, THIS IS WHAT THIS COMMUNITY KEEPS COMING OVER US
TO OVER AND OVER ABOUT.
I AM JUST GOING TO ASK THESE QUESTIONS, BECAUSE IT IS GOING
TO BE ON ME.
06:16:43PM >> RIGHT.
06:16:44PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.
06:16:47PM >>BILL CARLSON:
JUST TO ADD TO THAT.
THERE IS -- BIG MOVEMENT IN YBOR INCLUDING DEAR CLIENTS TO
TURN YBOR BACK INTO A COMMUNITY.
AND THE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE BOUGHT IN.
MOST OF THE BUSINESSES ARE BOUGHT IN.
AND WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO LIMIT A NEW AB LICENSE BECAUSE A
BUNCH OF THEM WERE GIVEN OUT IN THE '90s.
SO IS THERE -- CAN YOU -- KEEP IN MIND NEIGHBORHOODS ARE
WATCHING AND OTHER PROPERTY OWNERS WATCH.
WHAT IS THE BEST CASE FOR WHY IF WE ARE LIMITING IN OTHER
PARTS OF YBOR, WHY THIS AREA SHOULD HAVE AB BUT ALSO THIS
MUCH AB?
06:17:28PM >> OF COURSE.
BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS A BIT DIFFERENT BECAUSE GASWORX IN
GENERAL IS RELATIVELY INSULAR, RIGHT.
I AM NOT SAYING THERE ARE NOT RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES NEAR
HERE.
PROXIMATE RESIDENTIAL.
THIS IS YBOR, BUT I THINK WHAT WE WERE TRYING TO DO AND
DAMIAN WILL SPEAK TO THIS MORE, IN TERMS OF IT BEING A
MASTER OPERATOR OF THIS, THERE IS A LITTLE BIT MORE CONTROL.
TO YOUR POINTS, COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, THEY ARE A MASTER
OPERATOR NOW, BUT IN 20 YEARS, ARE THEY STILL GOING TO BE A
MASTER OPERATOR?
I CAN TELL THAT YOU THE ANSWER IS YES, BUT, AGAIN, A LEVEL
OF TRUST THERE.
SO I THINK IN TERMS OF THIS DEVELOPMENT, IT IS VERY SIMILAR
TO SOMETHING LIKE MIDTOWN.
MIDTOWN CAME IN AND DID SOMETHING VERY SIMILAR WHERE THEY
WET ALL THE GROUNDS FLOORS AND HAD CHAPTER 14 HOURS.
THAT WAS A DIFFERENT TIME, AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THINGS HAVE
CHANGED, BUT I THINK THAT WITH THESE -- WITH THESE LEVERS
THAT WE ARE ABLE TO PULL IN TERMS OF NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED
SOUND PAST 10 AND CLOSING AT 1 A.M.
WE ARE COMMITTED TO ENSURING THIS IS NOT A LARGE GATHERING
OF BARS.
BUT I UNDERSTAND IT RUNNINGS WITH THE LAND.
WHAT I WILL ASK THAT DAMIAN FINISH OUR PRESENTATION AND THEN
I CAN ANSWER MORE QUESTIONS.
06:18:39PM >> HELLO, DAMIAN PRESIGA, 1919 14th STREET AND A MANAGER OF
KEPLER.
WANT TO GIVE AN OVERVIEW OF THE BUILDINGS.
I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THAT, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE
RESIDENTS.
WE ACTUALLY HAVE 1300 UNITS THAT ARE BUILT IN GASWORX.
WE COMPLETED 800 OF THEM.
AND THAT IS THE LA UNION AND STEVEDORE.
WE ARE CURRENTLY BUILDING THE OTHER 500 THAT ARE OPENING
WITHIN THESE THREE BUILDINGS.
SO THIS IS THE E-1, WHICH IS THE LOUISA.
140 UNITS OVER 18,000 SQUARE FEET OF GROUND FLOOR RETAIL AND
HAS THE 520 PARKING SPOTS.
THIS IS BARRIO MARKET, WHICH IS THE 28,000-SQUARE-FOOT
MARKET THAT WE ARE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER.
THIS OUR OFFICE, WHICH IS 100,000 SQUARE FOOT, FULLY LEASED
OFFICE BUILDING WITH 15,000 SQUARE FEET OF GROUND FLOOR
RETAIL AND THAT ROOFTOP.
AND OLIVET, 375 RESIDENTIAL UNITS WITH OVER 28,000 SQUARE
FEET OF RETAIL.
WHERE THESE UNITS BEING BUILT, I THINK IT IS -- IT IS
IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS IMPORTANT -- WE HAVE TO
ENSURE THAT WE ARE RESPECTING OUR RESIDENTS THAT ARE OVER
THE RETAIL.
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE CONTROLLING WHAT HAPPENS ON A
GROUND LEVEL.
AND WE FEEL BY DOING THIS, BY HAVING THIS MASTER WET ZONING,
WE CAN EASILY -- WE CAN BETTER CONTROL OUR TENANTS, WHETHER
IT IS FROM NOISE, LIQUOR SALES.
THERE COULD BE SOME BAD APPLES, AND WE CAN ACTUALLY CONTROL
THEIR LEASES, WHETHER WE ARE GIVING THEM A WARNING FOR EVERY
NOISE AND LIQUOR VIOLATIONS OR DRINK VIOLATIONS, WE CAN
FINANCIALLY IMPACT THEM, AND WE CAN EVEN EVICT THEM.
LAST THING WE WANT TO DO IS TO HAVE INDIVIDUAL TENANTS
REALLY PULL THEIR OWN WET ZONING AND REALLY ALL THEY ARE
CARING ABOUT IS THEIR SALES.
SO WE HAVE MECHANISM TO REALLY BE ABLE TO CONTROL WHAT WE
ARE DOING AND HOW WE CAN CONTROL OUR TENANTS.
I THINK IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE, WE ARE A
LONG-TERM LANDOWNER.
WE DON'T EXPECT TO SELL THESE UNITS.
AND IT IS OUR OBLIGATION ONCE AGAIN TO TAKE CARE OF OUR
PATRON, MAKE SURE THEY ARE SAFE, OUR RESIDENTS, AND REALLY
TAKE CARE OF OUR ASSETS.
IMPORTANT FOR US TO TAKE CARE OF THIS ENVIRONMENT AS WELL.
SO -- AND ULTIMATELY, WE FEEL THAT WE HAVE THE -- BIGGEST
STRENGTH TO CONTROL WHAT -- WHAT HAPPENS WITHIN THESE RETAIL
OUTLETS.
AS FOR THE OFFICE ROOFTOP, WE DO HAVE A TEN-YEAR LEASE ON
THAT FLOOR LEVEL.
THAT IS AN OFFICE TENANT THAT WILL BE USING TENANT -- THEIR
AREA, THAT OPEN TERRACE FOR THEIR OWN USE.
BUT TO YOUR POINT, TEN YEARS DOWN ROAD, IF IT IS A LOUNGE,
WE ABSOLUTELY FOLLOW CITY ORDINANCE.
IF IT IS A LOUNGE FOR AFTER TEN YEARS, WE WOULD FOLLOW THE
CITY'S ORDINANCES.
06:21:54PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ARE YOU FINISHED WITH YOUR PRESENTATION?
06:21:57PM >> YEAH, ACTUALLY LET'S SEE -- WHAT IS THE NEXT ONE?
ABSOLUTELY.
ANY QUESTIONS?
06:22:04PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN YOUNG.
THIS.
06:22:06PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
WALK ME THROUGH ONE MORE TIME E-1, 2 AND 3,
WHICH IS WHICH?
06:22:14PM >> E-1 IS THE LOUISA.
06:22:19PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
ALL RESIDENTIAL.
06:22:20PM >> RESIDENTIAL WITH 18,000 SQUARE FEET OF GROUND FLOOR
RETAIL WHICH IS PART OF THE WET ZONING.
06:22:25PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
OKAY.
06:22:27PM >> THE OFFICE OR E-2 OFFICE THIS 100,000-SQUARE-FOOT OFFICE
OVER 15,000 SQUARE FEET OF RETAIL AND THE ROOF TERRACE.
06:22:40PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
NO RESIDENTIAL AT ALL.
JUST OFFICE AND RETAIL?
06:22:44PM >> THAT'S RIGHT.
AND BARRIO MARKET, THAT IS THE MARKET, THE
28,000-SQUARE-FOOT MARKET.
06:22:51PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
THAT IS E-3?
06:22:53PM >> THAT IS E-2 MARKET.
E-2 OFFICE AND E-2 MARKET.
AND OLIVET, WHICH IS E-3 WHICH IS 376 UNITS OVER 28,000
SQUARE FEET OF RETAIL.
AND THEN I THINK IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO MENTION LA UNION
AND STEVEDORE, WHICH IS PART OF OUR GASWORX COMMUNITIES.
06:23:16PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
WHAT'S -- SO E-1 IS LOUISA.
E-2 IS THE OFFICE AND BARRIO MARKET.
06:23:24PM >> CORRECT.
06:23:26PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
E-3 IS --
06:23:30PM >> OLIVET.
I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT FOR SAY THAT WE ARE CREATING A
NEIGHBORHOOD, NOT AN ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT.
I THINK BY HAVING -- THE WAY WE SET UP THE DESIGN AND THE
ARCHITECTURE WITH YOU ALL HAVE OUR RESIDENTS OVER THE WET
ZONING, AND RETAIL IS IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE.
WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE ARE CONTROLLING THAT.
LAST THING WE WANT IS COMPLAINTS FROM OUR RESIDENTS.
06:23:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.
06:23:54PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
IN A WAY, IT RESEMBLES SOMETHING LIKE
MIDTOWN.
06:23:58PM >> THAT'S RIGHT.
06:23:59PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
JUST WITH A SPANISH FLAVOR.
AND IT IS SOMETHING UNIQUE.
SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
AND LIKE ONE OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS HURTAK SPOKE, THE
PROBLEM NOT WITH YOU OR WITH US IS THAT -- I LIKE IT.
I REALLY ENJOY THIS BECAUSE I SEE A DIFFERENCE OF PEOPLE
COMING BACK TO YBOR CITY TO LIVE, NOT THAT THEY ARE NOT
THERE NOW, BUT YOU HAVE A VICINITY THAT YOU ARE CLOSE TO
EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED WITHIN YOUR OWN AREA.
YOU CAN PLAY.
YOU CAN HAVE A DRINK.
YOU CAN GO TO THE MARKETPLACE.
YOU CAN GO TO -- IF YOU NEED SOMETHING AT TAMPA AGAIN RAM
INNOVATION CENTER.
BUILDINGS YOU OWN ON BOTH SIDE.
NICK NUCCIO ON THE OTHER SIDE THAT WALKS AND DRIVES INTO ALL
THIS PARKING AND ON EAST SIDE OF TOWN, DOWNTOWN.
AND IT IS A CONCEPT THAT IS REALLY LAID OUT VERY NICE.
YOU HAVE A PARK.
YOU HAVE THINGS FOR YOUR -- HOWEVER, YOU HAVE -- YOU ARE
YOUR OWNER DESTINY HOLDER OF WHAT HAPPENS TO YOURSELF.
BECAUSE YOUR BUILDINGS ARE ALL MIXED USE.
NOT ONE THING AND THE OTHER.
YES, YOU HAVE ALCOHOL JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE.
AND IN A WAY, THAT'S POSITIVE.
AND IN A WAY, THAT IS DANGEROUS.
BECAUSE ALCOHOL STAYS WITH THE LAND FOREVER.
AND THAN WASN'T A COUNCIL SCRIPT.
IT WAS FROM TALLAHASSEE THAT THEY DID I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY
YEARS AGO.
THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT ARE THERE THAT COULD BE DANGEROUS.
BUT THE WAY YOU SPOKE THE WAY YOU HANDLED IT IS FINE.
SOME RESTRICTION ON THE POSSIBILITIES THAT MIGHT HAPPEN.
AND THE WAY LIFE IS, IF IT MIGHT HAPPEN, IT COULD HAPPEN.
AND WHAT I AM LOOKING HERE IS SOMETHING THAT IS REALLY,
REALLY UNIQUE.
IT IS -- IT IS LIKE A MINIATURE DOWNTOWN OR MAY BE EQUAL TO
DOWNTOWN AND WHAT YOU HAVE THE VINIK FAMILY AND
THE CRA HAS BUILT ALL AROUND THE EAST SIDE OF DOWNTOWN AND
WHAT YOU HAVE THERE IS ANOTHER PART OF A CITY.
AND THIS LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER PART OF THE CITY SOMEWHERE ELSE,
JUST IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THAT.
SOME YOU DON'T NO LONGER SEE BANANA DOCK, AND YOU NO
LONGER SEE THE OLD COCA-COLA BUILDING THAT WAS THERE.
YOU DON'T SEE ALL DRUGS, PROSTITUTION EVERYTHING THAT YOU
HAD THERE 40 YEARS AGO BACK IN THE '90s STARTED THAT WAY AND
LOOK AT IT NOW.
TOOK INDIVIDUALS WITH SOME FORESIGHT AND A LOT OF GAMBLING
TO GET WHERE IT IS AT THAT IT WOULD WORK.
WHEN YOU GAMBLE, SOMETIMES YOU WIN AND SOMETIMES YOU LOSE.
BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS.
AND I HAVE TO APPLAUD YOU, BECAUSE THIS IS SOMETHING
DIFFERENT THAT -- AND I KNOW THE PROBLEM IS THE ALCOHOL, BUT
THE LAYOUT YOU HAVE IT IS -- IT IS LIKE ANOTHER CITY COME IN
WITH A DIFFERENT LOOK AND THE WAY IT LOOKS NOW, LOSER IS
REALLY YOURSELF.
IF YOU DON'T CONTROL YOUR ALCOHOL IN THE BUILDING THAT YOU
ARE IN, YES, IT IS FOREVER, BUT THE LOSER IS YOU.
BECAUSE YOU ARE TAKING IT UPON YOURSELF THE RISK THAT THAT
ALCOHOL LICENSE PERFORMS TO WHATEVER STANDARD IS REQUIRED BY
LAW.
AND THERE IS WHERE PROBLEM COMES.
YOU BACK WINNER, AND YOU ARE GAMBLING THAT YOU WON'T BE A
LOSER.
AND THAT'S HOW IT IS IN MY MIND.
06:27:13PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
06:27:15PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I THINK COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA, YOU KNOW,
MADE A GOOD POINT.
40 YEARS AGO, YBOR WAS EMPTY.
40 YEARS BEFORE THAT, IT WAS VERY SIMILAR FOR THIS.
BY THEN, PEOPLE LEFT AND TURNED INTO A NIGHTCLUB DISTRICT TO
SURVIVE AND STILL PEOPLE LIVING ABOVE THE STOREFRONTS.
THIS IS WHY I AM CONCERNED.
BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT THIS NEIGHBORHOOD TRIED SO VERY HARD TO
GET OUT OF AND BY PROVIDING SO MUCH ALCOHOL SQUARE FOOTAGE,
I AM VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WITHOUT HAVING A LITTLE MORE SOLID
KNOWLEDGE.
AND, AGAIN, THE THING THAT IS MOST CONCERNING FOR ME IS THE
BARRIO MARKET.
IT IS A HUGE PIECE OF LAND.
I MEAN, THAT IS 28,000 SQUARE FEET OF ALCOHOL PERMITTED UNTIL
1 A.M.
THEIR COULD EASILY BECOME A DANCE HALL.
COULD BECOME THINGS.
I JUST -- AGAIN, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT PERHAPS IN 40 YEARS.
YOU CANNOT GUARANTEE YOU ARE GOING TO OWN THIS FOREVER.
YOU CAN NOT GUARANTEE THIS IS GOING TO REMAIN.
I MEAN --
06:28:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
BE THIS IS Q & A TIME.
06:28:37PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YES, BUT -- SO MY QUESTION IS, WHAT ARE
THE THREE APS LICENSES.
WHAT ARE THOSE?
06:28:46PM >> I CAN TALK TO THAT.
THOSE ARE PACKAGE SALES FOR BEER, WINE, AND LIQUOR.
SO I KNOW THERE WAS SOME CONCERN FLOATING AROUND FROM THE
NEIGHBORHOOD -- THEY WEREN'T OVERLY CONCERNED, BUT TOLD US
WITH OTHER DEVELOPMENTS THAT COME ONLINE IN YBOR, THEY WERE
HESITANT FOR LIQUOR STORES.
IF ANYTHING, WE HAVE LIMITED OUR SPACES OF HAVING AT THE
MOST TWO SPECIFIC LICENSES FOR PACKAGE SALES.
06:29:11PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I HAVE A QUESTION FOR STAFF AND LEGAL --
PROBABLY LEGAL, BUT MIGHT BE STAFF.
06:29:17PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ARE YOU DONE WITH YOUR PRESENTATION?
06:29:19PM >> YEAH, I WILL DO A REBUTTAL, BUT --
06:29:23PM >> I JUST WANT TO SAY, I THINK THERE IS GOOD PRECEDENT
PROJECTS THAT HAVE HAD GREAT SUCCESS, GREAT SAFETY.
AMATEUR WORKS IS ONE.
MIDTOWN -- MIDTOWN, WATER STREET.
I MEAN, YOU ARE SEEING AS LONG AS THERE IS GOOD SECURITY AND
SAFETY, WE ARE PROVIDING ALL THAT.
THERE IS -- ONCE AGAIN, WE ARE ABLE TO POLICE THIS BETTER
BECAUSE WE ARE CONTROLLING THE MASTER WET ZONING AND ALCOHOL
LICENSES RATHER THAN THE INDIVIDUAL TENANTS.
I THINK THAT IS A GREAT STRENGTH.
WE CAN FINANCIALLY BURDEN THESE TENANTS, BUT IF THEY ARE NOT
FOLLOWING THE RULES AND IMPACTING THE RISK OF US LOSING THAT
LICENSE.
SO IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR US THAT WE ARE ABLE TO MANAGE
THIS PROPERLY.
AND TO FULLEST.
06:30:10PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THANK YOU.
I APPRECIATE THAT, BUT LITERALLY THIS IS WHAT WE ARE
FIGHTING RIGHT NOW WITH ARMATURE WORKS, AN ALCOHOL AND NOISE
PROBLEM.
SO THAT IS WHAT WE ARE DEALING WITH RIGHT NOW LITERALLY.
WE WERE SUPPOSED TO TALK ABOUT THAT IN A WORKSHOP TODAY.
MY QUESTION IS FOR STAFF.
AND MY QUESTION IS, IS THERE A WAY WHEN IT COMES TO BAR AN
LOUNGE, THAT YOU CAN PROHIBIT A NIGHT CLUB?
OR IS THAT JUST NOT A POSSIBILITY?
06:30:48PM >>LEO DEBARDELEBEN:
LEO DEBARDELEBEN, LAND DEVELOPMENT
COORDINATION.
CITY COUNCIL CAN CONDITION THE SITE PLAN AND THE --
HOWEVER YOU CHOOSE.
06:30:56PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
OKAY.
SO -- APPLICANT, WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO PUT THAT FOR THE
BARRIO MARKETPLACE ON THE SITE PLAN THAT IT WILL NEVER BE A
NIGHT CLUB.
IF YOU CAN CONDITION THAT, THAT'S MY ASK.
06:31:16PM >> WE ARE ON THE SAME WAVELENGTH AND ASKING LACHONE SAME
QUESTION.
NOT TO USE ARMATURE WORKS -- WE ARE ENVISIONING SOMETHING
LIKE ARMATURE WORKS, LIKE RESTAURANTS AND SMALL BARS.
I WAS TRYING TO ASK LACHONE WHAT THE ZONING USE WOULD BE.
AB USE WILL BE LARGE VENUE.
ZONING USE I AM CONFIDENT WOULDN'T BE BAR/LOUNGE AND TRYING
TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS THAT USE, A PLACE OF ASSEMBLY WITH
RESTAURANTS AND RETAILS.
THAT IS WHAT WE WERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT.
06:31:45PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
WHICH IS WHY IT WOULD BE HARD TO PUT NEVER A
NIGHTCLUB ON-SITE PLAN.
06:31:51PM >> I THINK WE CAN OKAY WITH THE BARRIO MARKET.
I WILL BE OKAY TO STAY THAT WILL NEVER BE A SINGLE-USE
BAR/LOUNGE FOR THE FULL SQUARE FOOTAGE --
06:32:04PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THAT IS FINE.
FOR THE 28,000, IF I CAN GET THAT AS THE NORTHWEST OF NO BAR
-- NO BAR/LOUNGE OVERALL --
06:32:13PM >> SINGLE USE.
06:32:14PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SINGLE USE.
I LOVE THAT LANGUAGE.
NO SINGLE USE BAR/LOUNGE.
I AM MUCH LESS CONCERNED.
STILL A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT ROOFTOP, BUT KNOWING THAT
AMPLIFIED NOISE MUST STOP AT 10 P.M., IMPLORE COMFORTABLE
WITH THAT.
06:32:31PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.
06:32:34PM >>BILL CARLSON:
TO THOSE POINTS ALSO.
TO OTHER AB LICENSES OR ACTIONS WE HAVE LIMITED THE HOURS
INSTEAD OF -- INSTEAD OF 1 A.M. OR 3 A.M., WE HAVE LIMITED
THEM TO 10 P.M., FOR EXAMPLE, PARTLY SOME OF THEIR
HOUSING SO WE WOULDN'T EFFECT THE PEOPLE LIVING THERE.
BUT IF WERE LESS, THEN IT WOULDN'T -- ALSO WOULDN'T BEEN
A LATE NIGHT BAR.
ANY POSSIBILITY OF THAT?
06:33:05PM >> GIVEN THE FACT DISTRICT WIDE WE WANT 1 A.M., WE DON'T
WANT THE LIGHTS TO BE OUT AT 10 P.M. WE WANT THIS TO BE
A DISTRICT PEOPLE TO HAVE PLACES TO GO WHEN THEY GET
OFF WORK.
THAT 10 P.M. IS A BIT TOO EARLY.
EVEN RESTAURANTS PER A REGULAR AB 1 CAN STAY OPEN TO 1 A.M.
ON WEEKENDS.
WE FELT THAT 1 A.M. WAS REASONABLE, BUT IF COUNCIL HAS DIFFERENT
OPINIONS, WE ARE HAPPY TO HEAR THEM.
06:33:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
FOR CLARIFICATION.
I WANTED TO MAKE SURE I HEARD THAT RIGHT, MAYBE I DIDN'T.
YOU SAID IF THERE IS A BAR/LOUNGE, NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED MUSIC,
PERIOD.
06:33:46PM >> THAT'S CORRECT.
06:33:47PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
A BAR AND LOUNGE.
LUKE ROOFTOP, DECLARED A BAR AND LOUNGE NOT ANY OUTDOOR
MUSIC.
BARRIO MARKET BECAUSE THAT IS BASICALLY OUTDOORS, THEY CAN'T
HAVE AMPLIFIED MUSIC.
06:34:02PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BUT STILL --
06:34:04PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
NEVER AMPLIFIED MUSIC IN THE OUTSIDE AREA
06:34:09PM >> IF IT WAS A BAR/LOUNGE, YES.
06:34:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE WON'T END IN A SITUATION WITH THE
PROBLEMATIC BAR LIKE ARMATURE WORKS SINCE IT IS OUTSIDE.
RESTRICTING OUTSIDE --
06:34:30PM >> THAT WAS THE INTENT.
06:34:31PM >>BILL CARLSON:
ISSUES WITH THE TOWERS AT CHANNELSIDE.
WITHOUT NAMING THE PLACE UNDERNEATH.
NOT SOUND INSIDE, BUT OUTSIDE AND WHAT THEY WERE DOING
OUTSIDE.
06:34:43PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THAT WAS A BAR.
06:34:45PM >>BILL CARLSON:
BUT STILL, CONCERNS WHAT HAPPENS AROUND THAT
AND HAVING TOO MUCH CONCENTRATION -- THE REASON WHY THE
DISTANCE REQUIREMENTS ARE THERE SO SPREAD IT OUT A LITTLE
BIT.
BIG CONCENTRATIONS OF PEOPLE DRUNK LEAVING A PLACE,
ESPECIALLY LATE AT NIGHT.
06:35:04PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I FEEL SEEN.
06:35:05PM >> A GOOD POINT TOO.
I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WAS MENTIONED.
I THINK LEO MENTIONED IT BRIEFLY, AS PART OF MONITORING
-- WE WILL HAVE SECURITY AROUND ANNUAL MONITORING.
THERE WILL BE WAYS FOR YOU IN THE CITY TO ENFORCE COMPLIANCE
WITH ANY KIND OF ISSUES.
06:35:22PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ONE MORE.
06:35:23PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I AM NOT COMPARING THIS TO ANYTHING ELSE,
BUT I REMEMBER MANY YEARS AGO AT THE ONCE GREAT BEAUTIFUL
BUILDING IN MIAMI BEACH CALLED THE "FOUNTAINBLEAU HOTEL," A
PLACE CALLED "TROPICALA."
SURE, IT WAS A HOTEL, BUT THEY HAD SHOWS THERE FOR ABOUT
400 SEATS -- MAYBE 500 SEATS INSIDE OF THE HOTEL.
AND THAT PLACE WAS SOLD OUT EVERY SINGLE NIGHT AND EVERY
THREE OR FOUR MONTHS THEY WOULD CHANGE SHOWS.
THEY HAD SHOWGIRLS, BANDS, AND MUSIC.
TWO GUYS -- ONE GUY STILL LIVING HERE IN TAMPA.
HIS NAME IS ALEX CORA.
MARITZA'S HUSBAND THAT OWNED THE BUILDING ON CARGO ROAD AND
OSBORNE.
AND HE WAS A SOUND MAN FOR THAT SHOW.
AND HE LIVES IN TAMPA.
AND THE OTHER ONE WAS GABBY GABRIEL, WHO WAS THE LEAD
SINGER.
AND HE WILL DO SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE I KNOW REAL WELL LATE
OCTOBER AND THE FIRST WEEK IN NOVEMBER.
WHAT THEY DID THERE WAS JUST -- YOU COULDN'T GET INTO THE
PLACE UNLESS YOU HAD RESERVATIONS SIX MONTHS IN ADVANCE.
THAT IS HOW IT WAS.
IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.
NO MUSIC OUTSIDE.
IT WAS ALL INSIDE.
AND I AM NOT SAYING THIS WILL BE SOMETHING LIKE THAT, IT
WON'T.
BUT I AM SAYING TAMPA IS READY FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT AT
SOME BIG HOTEL OR SOMETHING.
BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T DO IT, SOMEBODY WILL DO TOURISM THAT
YOU WON'T, JUST LIKE THE CONVENTION CENTER.
IF WE DON'T EXPAND, IT WE WILL BE DEAD.
BUT THIS IS ZONING MATTER.
I AM SAYING WHAT IT IS.
THESE ARE THINGS YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT WHEN YOU SIT ON THIS
SIDE OF THE DESK OR THAT SIDE OF DESK OR THE CHAIR.
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH SUCCESS?
YOU CANNOT STAY STILL.
BECAUSE IF YOU DO, SOMEONE ELSE WILL TAKE SUCCESS OVER.
06:37:05PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
LET'S MOVE TO PUBLIC COMMENT FIRST.
06:37:08PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I HAVE A QUESTION.
06:37:09PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE HAVE BEEN QUESTIONING THIS TO DEATH.
LET'S LEAVE IT AT THIS.
06:37:13PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BUT I HAVE A -- SO MY QUESTION IS FOR ALL
THIS SQUARE FOOTAGE, WHAT IS THE NUMBER OF SPACES, LIKE,
ACTUAL RETAIL, RESTAURANT, WHATEVER.
WHAT ARE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUAL SPACES THAT YOU ARE LOOKING
FOR OTHER THAN THAT BARRIO MARKET WHICH IS, YOU KNOW --
06:37:32PM >> UNDER 30.
06:37:32PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
UNDER 30.
SO DO YOU HAVE A NUMBER OF BAR/LOUNGES THAT YOU ARE GOING TO
ALLOW?
06:37:43PM >> I DON'T THINK WE HAVE A CERTAIN CAP ON THEM, BECAUSE WE
ARE -- SO IT IS ALSO INTERESTING BECAUSE THE SMALLER SPACES
-- SO IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 250 SEATS, CAN YOU NOT POOL THE
SPECIAL RESTAURANT?
SO THERE ARE LIMITATIONS ON THAT.
THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE RUNNING INTO IN PAST, EVEN IF WE HAVE A
RESTAURANT, MAYBE SOMEONE IS DOING 51% FOOD BUT TOO SMALL TO
QUALIFY.
SO THAT IS ANOTHER REASON WHY WE RUNNING INTO THIS BEFORE
AND LET'S PUT IT IN THE SAME -- BECAUSE WE THINK A LOT THESE
BOXES ARE GOING TO BE TOO SMALL TO QUALIFY.
06:38:19PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I AM JUST REALLY WORRIED OF BAR/LOUNGE.
06:38:23PM >> SURE.
06:38:25PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I MEAN --
06:38:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
LET'S HEAR FROM THE PUBLIC.
ANYONE IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM?
06:38:32PM >> I DO.
06:38:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COME ON.
START WITH YOUR NAME.
06:38:35PM >> CHRIS WOJTOWICZ.
LOCAL RESIDENTS JUST BLOCKS FROM THIS DEVELOPMENT.
JUST REAL QUICK.
I KNOW YOU GUYS WANT TO GET DONE BY 7:00, THIS IS GOING TO
REMIND ME A LOT OF WATER STREET.
YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE RESTAURANTS THAT HAVE
OUTDOOR SPACE, WHICH IS SOMETHING WE REALLY STRUGGLE WITH IN
YBOR, AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE OF THEM AND EXCITED TO
HAVE THEM HERE.
AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE EVENTS.
WATER STREET AT CHRISTMAS, THEY HAVE POP-UP MARKETS AND
OUTDOOR AREAS WHERE YOU CAN GET BEVERAGES AND BUY
MERCHANDISE AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
I LIKE THE FLEXIBILITY TO HAVE A REAL ENGAGING AREA FOR THE
COMMUNITY TO PARTICIPATE IN.
AND THE FACT THAT BAR AND LOUNGE CANNOT HAVE OUTDOOR
AMPLIFIED MUSIC MEANS I AM NOT EVEN CONCERNED OF THAT PATIO
EVER GETTING LOUD.
THE UPSTAIRS PATIO AREA.
SO ANYWAY, I AM REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS.
I HOPE YOU DO APPROVE IT BECAUSE I WANT THEM TO HAVE THE
FLEXIBILITY.
I THINK IT IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY YOU WILL GET 15 BARS LINED UP
IN A ROW THERE.
WHO -- THEY CAN'T KEEP ENOUGH PEOPLE IN THE BARS ON 7th
AVENUE AS IT IS ANYWAY.
I THINK ECONOMY IS GOING TO DRIVE A VARIETY IN THESE SPACES
JUST NATURALLY.
THAT IS MY THOUGHT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
06:39:53PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANYONE ELSE IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?
COME ON UP.
06:40:00PM >> CHRIS LEON, 2010 EAST PALM AVE.
I UNDERSTAND THE CONCERNS.
CHARLIE, I LOVE YOU BROUGHT UP THE TROPICANA.
MY PARENTS USED TO TAKE ME AGREEING UP.
A THING GROWING UP AND A GOOD MEMORY FOR ME TOO.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERNS, BUT
I WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE.
I WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO WANT
TO FIND A PLACE TO ENJOY AND TO BE ABLE TO GO OUT IN TAMPA
AND HAVE NIGHTS OUT.
AND I THINK THAT WE HAVE TO THINK NOT ONLY OF THE RESIDENTS
-- I GET IT ,AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS ONE PERSPECTIVE
OF A TYPE OF RESIDENT THAT YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT.
I GREW UP NEW CARROLLWOOD.
THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN CARROLLWOOD.
IT IS -- I LOVE CARROLLWOOD SO AS MUCH, YOU KNOW THAT IS MY
PLACE; HOWEVER, I THINK IT WOULD BE A HUGE DISSERVICE TO THE
CITY OF TAMPA TO MAKE EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD LIKE CARROLLWOOD.
AND YBOR SHOULD NOT BE LIKE CARROLLWOOD.
I THINK WE HAVE TO THINK DIFFERENTLY.
AN I THINK WE HAVE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OPPORTUNITY THAT WE
HAVE, THIS BEAUTIFUL DEVELOPMENT THAT IS GOING ON THAT
BRINGS A LOT TO THE TABLE LIKE WE NEED MORE PEDESTRIAN
WALKWAYS, RIGHT.
IT IS A GREAT PLACE TO GO.
YOU ARE FREE OF CARS.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY OF ANYTHING.
YOU CAN FLOW FREELY.
WE DON'T -- I THINK FOR YEARS, WE DIDN'T HAVE ROOFTOP BARS
IN TAMPA, WHICH I NEVER UNDERSTOOD BECAUSE BEING IN BOSTON
FOR TEN YEARS AND COMING BACK HERE AND LIVING THROUGH
WINTERS, YOU KNOW, LIKE, NOVEMBER WOULD COME AROUND.
WHY CAN'T WE SIT AROUND ANYWHERE AND GO TO RED MESA IN ST.
PETE TO SIT OUTSIDE AND HAVE A NICE MEAL AND COULDN'T DO THAT
IN TAMPA.
FOR A LONG TIME, WE COULDN'T HAVE FOOD TRUCKS IN TAMPA, AND I
THOUGHT THAT WAS WEIRD AND CULTURE CHANGED, AND WE WERE
BEHIND THE BALL ON THAT ONE.
I THINK ON THIS ONE, WE HAVE TO -- I REALLY THINK ABOUT THE
DIRECTION THAT WE WANT TO ALLOW TAMPA TO GO.
AN I THINK THAT THERE IS A NEED FOR VIBRANCY.
AND I THINK THAT VIBRANCY DRIVES ECONOMIES AND DRIVES CITIES
FORWARD.
IF YOU EVER THINK OF THE CITIES THAT ARE RELEVANT THAT WE
TALK ABOUT ARE THE CITIES THAT ARE VIBRANT.
IN THE NATIONAL -- IT HAS BEEN NASHVILLE, AND IT HAS BEEN
AUSTIN.
IT HAS BEEN PLACES THAT ARE VIBRANT, AND WE NEED SPACES IN
TAMPA THAT ARE VIBRANT.
PLEASE TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN YOU DO THIS.
I THINK WE CAN TWEAK THINGS IF THERE IS CONCERNS LATER ON,
BUT I THINK TO TRY TO CLAMP EVERYTHING DOWN WOULD BE --
WOULD NOT BE THE RIGHT MOVE MOVING FORWARD.
06:42:33PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANYONE ELSE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK THIS ITEM?
HEARING NONE.
CAN I GET A MOTION TO CLOSE -- SORRY, REBUTTAL.
06:42:44PM >> DAMIAN AND I WERE TALKING TO THE APPLICANT.
WE ARE OKAY WITH MIDNIGHT IF THAT EASES SOME OF YOUR
CONCERNS, COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.
INSTEAD OF 1 A.M.
NOT, THEN --
06:42:56PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE -- I DON'T KNOW IF
THERE IS A CONSENSUS ON COUNCIL OF THE 1 A.M.
06:43:02PM >> SURE.
06:43:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I MEAN, I HAVEN'T SPOKEN ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
LET ME SPEAK -- AND THEN I WILL GIVE YOU A CHANCE OF
REBUTTAL AFTER I SPEAK.
I THINK -- I THINK WHAT WE ARE MISSING HERE.
THIS IS A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT BY ONE DEVELOPER THAT IS
DEVELOPING THIS AREA.
AND ALL THESE -- FOR THE MOST PART WITH A COUPLE OF
EXCEPTIONS, ALL RESIDENTS ARE BUYING INTO A KNOWN FACTOR.
THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE GETTING INTO.
SO YOU ARE NOT GOING INTO AN EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD AND
CHANGING USES.
THIS IS A BRAND-NEW NEIGHBORHOOD.
THIS IS -- THIS IS A PLACE BEING CREATED FOR A VERY SPECIFIC
INTENT.
NOT GOING TO BE ANY SURPRISES HERE.
NOT LIKE I OWNED A HOUSE IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD, AND
ALL OF A SUDDEN, THEY BUILD A BAR NEXT TO ME.
THIS IS VERY DIFFERENT.
A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT.
IT IS ALSO -- I MEAN, I THINK WE ALL UNDERSTAND HOW
TRANSFORMATIONAL IT IS.
AND YOU LOOK AT THE EXAMPLES THAT THEY BROUGHT UP.
YOU KNOW, WE SEE THE SUCCESS OF WATER STREET.
WE SEE -- AND I JUST -- I CAN IMAGINE A VIBRANT NEIGHBORHOOD
OF HAVING THE DIVERSITY OF -- YOU KNOW, AGAIN, AS SOMEONE
WHO IS CONTROLLING A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, THAT IS A MAGIC
MIX OF SOMEONE WHO IS THE LEASING AGENT OF THAT FINDING
DIFFERENT PIECES OF THAT PUZZLE TO MAKE IT ALL WORK.
I MEAN, THAT'S PART OF THE MAGIC THAT THEY HAVE TO DO.
IF THEY END UP -- IF THEY OVERLOADED IT WITH ANY TYPE OF
BUSINESS NOT GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
ANYBODY IN RETAIL HAS TO CREATE A MAGIC MIX.
AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT YOU LOOK FOR, AGAIN, BECAUSE THIS IS
A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, ONE DEVELOPER COMING IN AND MAKING
THIS WHOLE THING HAPPEN, I THINK THAT GIVES US A LOT -- AT
LEAST IT GIVES ME A LOT OF ASSURANCE THAT THIS IS GOING TO
BE ONE OF THE MORE SUCCESSFUL NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE CITY OF
TAMPA.
ANYBODY ELSE?
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
6:44:54PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
IT'S TRUE THAT IT IS A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT,

BUT IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN TO THE OWNERS, THEY COULD
PIECEMEAL SELL THIS OFF.
YOU CAN'T TELL ME IT'S JUST A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT.
LIKE, THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT WORKS.
AGAIN, I'M NOT WORRIED ABOUT CURRENT OWNERS.
I MEAN, THEY HAVE SHOWN THAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO -- THAT
THEY HAVE DONE GOOD THINGS, BUT, YOU KNOW, SO DID ARMATURE
WORKS AND NOW LITERALLY THIS IS A GIANT PROBLEM WE HAVE.
IT'S NOT EVEN THE MUSIC.
IT'S THE BASS.
THAT IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM, THAT LITERALLY FOLKS CAN HEAR
IT INSIDE THEIR HOUSES.
THAT'S MY CONCERN.
I'M LESS CONCERNED AS LONG AS WE HAVE THE NO SINGLE USE BAR
LOUNGE FOR THE BARRIO MARKET.
I'M ALSO NOT CONCERNED ABOUT MIDNIGHT.
I THINK 1 A.M. IS MORE APPROPRIATE.
I STILL WOULD LIKE TO SEE LIKE NO MORE THAN TWO-THIRDS BE
BAR/LOUNGE SPACE.
I MEAN, THAT WOULD BE MORE APPROPRIATE TO ME BECAUSE, AGAIN,
IT'S GREAT NOW.
BUT THE ECONOMY TOMORROW COULD TANK.
I MEAN, WATCH THE STOCKS GOING UP AND DOWN.
CRAZY.
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN.

RIGHT NOW EVERYTHING IS POINTING TO AN ECONOMIC DOWNTURN.
THAT ECONOMIC DOWNTURN HAPPENS, YOU'LL WANT TO FILL THOSE
SPACES AND THAT'S THE CONCERN.
6:46:18PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
REBUTTAL?
6:46:19PM >> SURE.
THIS IS A GREAT DISCUSSION.
I KNOW THAT THIS IS DIFFERENT, AND WE DON'T SEE TOO MANY
LARGE SCALE WET ZONINGS.
I WILL KEEP IT VERY BRIEF.
BUT COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN, I THINK YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE
HEAD.
IF WE ARE RESISTANT TO LARGE-SCALE WET ZONINGS KNOWING THAT
THEY CARRY A VERY MEASURABLE RISK, THEN WE DON'T END UP WITH
DEVELOPMENTS LIKE MIDTOWN AND WE DON'T END UP WITH
DEVELOPMENTS LIKE ARMATURE WORKS, EVEN THOUGH THEY COME WITH
THEIR OWN SET OF ISSUES AND ALWAYS COMPLAINTS TIED TO THEM,
BUT THEN AS A CITY, YOU KNOW, WE'RE FORFEITING PLACES LIKE
WATER STREET AND ALL OF THESE DISTRICTS THAT PEOPLE LOVE.
AGAIN, I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE'S RISK IN THIS.
OF COURSE, WE CAN'T PREDICT THE FUTURE.
BUT I DON'T WANT SOMETHING THAT IS SO SIGNATURE IN THESE
DEVELOPERS WHO HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB WITH TRANSFORMING THIS
DISTRICT TO, YOU KNOW, UNFORTUNATELY BE LIKE MINIMIZED BASED
ON SOME FUTURE RISK THAT WE DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO
PREDICT.

THAT'S ALL I HAVE.
IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, JUST LET ME KNOW.
DAMIEN, ANYTHING FURTHER?
I THINK WE'RE GOOD.
6:47:25PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCILMAN
MANISCALCO.

THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE.

AYES HAVE IT.

BUT THAT WASN'T ON THE REVISION SHEET.

6:48:24PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I'M SORRY.
I THOUGHT IT WAS.
6:48:26PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
IT IS THE NO SINGLE USE BAR/LOUNGE FOR THE
BARRIO MARKET 28,000 SQUARE FEET.
6:48:32PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:

JULY 16, 2026 AT 10 A.M. AT OLD CITY HALL, LOCATED AT 315
EAST KENNEDY BOULEVARD, THIRD FLOOR, TAMPA, FLORIDA, 33602.
6:48:54PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
THE LAST ITEM OF BUSINESS, ITEM NUMBER 9.
YOU HAVE 11 MINUTES.
6:49:03PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
LaCHONE DOCK, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
ITEM NUMBER 9, OUR LAST ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS REZ-26-28.
AND I'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU THE MAP.
NORMALLY I WOULD LIST OUT THE PROPERTIES.
THE PROPERTY ADDRESSES INCLUDED IN THE REZONING REQUEST, BUT
THIS IS A LARGE-SCALE DEVELOPMENT.

IT CONSISTS OF 55 PARCELS, AND IT CONTAINS OVER 30 ACRES.
I JUST WANTED TO ORIENT YOU AND SHOW YOU ON THIS MAP THE
AREA CONTAINED WITHIN THE PROJECT BOUNDARY.
SO THE PROPERTIES THAT ARE SHADED IN RED ARE INCLUDED IN
THIS REZONING REQUEST.
SO JUST TO ORIENT YOU, 19th STREET IS THE WESTERN
BOUNDARY.
THIS IS PALM AVENUE.
FURTHER NORTH YOU HAVE I-4, YOU HAVE 22nd STREET RUNNING
NORTH-SOUTH HERE.
EAST 6th AVENUE IS THE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY AS YOU APPROACH
THE EASTERN BOUNDARY OF THE PROJECT AREA.
AND THEN EAST 9th AVENUE IS HERE, AND THAT'S THE
NORTHEASTERN, THE BOUNDARY TO THE NORTH FOR THE NORTHEASTERN
BOUNDARY OF THE PROPERTY AREA.
SO THE REQUEST IS TO -- I'LL LEAVE THAT UP A SECOND.
THE REQUEST IS TO REZONE THE PROPERTY FROM YC 1, WHICH IS
CENTRAL COMMERCIAL CORE, YC 2, RESIDENTIAL, YC 4 MIXED USE
REDEVELOPMENT, YC 5, GENERAL COMMERCIAL, YC 6 COMMUNITY
COMMERCIAL, YC 7 MIXED USE.
YC 8 RESIDENTIAL AND IG INDUSTRIAL GENERAL TO YC 9 SITE PLAN
CONTROLLED AND PDA PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ALTERNATIVE.
THIS IS FOR A MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT.
THIS WOULD INCLUDE COMMERCIAL INTENSIVE USES AND ALL
RESIDENTIAL TYPES.

SO WITH THAT, I'LL TURN IT OVER TO EMILY TO GIVE HER REPORT,
AND I'LL COME BACK AND GIVE MY REPORT.
THANK YOU.
6:51:00PM >> EMILY PHELAN, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.
THE SITE IS WITHIN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT.
PARTS OF IT ARE WITHIN THE LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, AND THE
URBAN VILLAGE.
IT'S WITHIN THE HISTORIC YBOR AND HISTORIC YBOR AND GARY
NEIGHBORHOODS.
PORTIONS OF IT ARE WITHIN THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREA, AND
THE SITE IS WITHIN EVACUATION ZONES A, B, C, D AND E.
THIS IS AN AERIAL OF THE SUBJECT SITE THAT LaCHONE JUST
HAD UP.
IT INCLUDES ALL OF THE PARCELS IN PURPLE.
THE SURROUNDING AREA IS JUST A MIX OF USES WITH
SINGLE-FAMILY AND MULTIFAMILY TO THE NORTH AND COMMERCIAL
AND OFFICE AND LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TO THE USES TO THE SOUTH AS
YOU GO TOWARDS ADAMO.
IT HAS TRANSITIONED FROM LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TO MIXED USE
DEVELOPMENT PATTERN WITHIN RECENT YEARS.
THIS IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
THE SUBJECT SITE IS WITHIN SIX FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATIONS.
THE RESIDENTIAL 20, THE RESIDENTIAL 15, THE COMMUNITY
COMMERCIAL 35 WHICH IS ALL OF THE RED, THE COMMUNITY MIXED
USE 35, WHICH IS THE PINK, THE URBAN MIXED USE 16 AND PART

OF IT IS IN LIGHT INDUSTRIAL.
THESE DESIGNATIONS ALLOW FOR A VARIETY OF USES, DENSITIES,
AND INTENSITIES.
THIS REQUEST WOULD PERMIT A MASTER PLANNED DEVELOPMENT,
MIXED USE PROJECT WITHIN JUST UP TO 3 MILLION SQUARE FEET OF
RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AND ALL HOUSING TYPES AND COMMERCIAL
INTENSIVE USES.
DUE TO THE SITE HAVING ALL OF THE MULTIPLE FLU DESIGNATIONS,
THE APPLICANT IS UTILIZING LAND USE POLICY 5.1.6 TO BLEND
THE F.A.R. AND PERMITTED USES ACROSS THE ENTIRE SITE WHICH
RESULTS IN A 2.3 F.A.R. CONSISTENT WITH THE UNDERLYING
FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATIONS.
THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DIRECTS THE GREATEST SHARE OF GROWTH
TO URBAN VILLAGES AND AREAS SERVED BY TRANSIT.
THE SITE IS WELL SERVED BY TRANSIT INCLUDING HART ROUTES 5
AND 9 AND TECO STREETCAR.
THE MAJORITY OF THE SITE IS WITHIN AN URBAN VILLAGE, WHICH
SUPPORTS INCREASED HOUSING SUPPLY AND INFILL DEVELOPMENT ON
VACANT OR UNDERUTILIZED LAND.
PORTIONS OF THE SITE WITHIN THE CMU 35, THE CC-35, AND THE
UMU 60 DESIGNATIONS ARE WITHIN A MIXED USE CORRIDOR AND
SUBJECT TO THE MIXED USE CENTERS AND CORRIDOR POLICIES.
THE DESIGN GUIDE BOOK DEMONSTRATES CONSISTENCY WITH THE
POLICIES THROUGH DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND SUBAREA FRAMEWORK.
THE REQUEST SUPPORTS THE CITY'S COMPACT URBAN FORM STRATEGY

BY PROVIDING TRANSIT SUPPORTED DENSITIES AND A MIX OF USES
IN PROXIMITY TO EMPLOYMENT AND TRANSIT.
THE DESIGN BOOK REINFORCES URBAN DESIGN OBJECTIVES THROUGH
BUILDING PLACEMENT, PEDESTRIAN NETWORK AND AN ACTIVE GROUND
FLOOR.
THE DEVELOPMENT IS ORGANIZED INTO FOUR SUBAREAS WHICH
RESPOND TO SPECIFIC CONTENTS AND POLICY GUIDANCE.
OVERALL, PROPOSED PDA IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE
PLAN DIRECTION RELATED TO MIXED USE CENTERS AND CORRIDORS,
HOUSING, COMPATIBILITY, URBAN FORM, AND DESIGN.
THROUGHOUT THE SITE PLAN REVIEW PROCESS, STAFF ENCOURAGES
THE CONTINUED IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DESIGN GUIDE BOOK TO
ENSURE CONSISTENCY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
6:54:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ANY QUESTIONS?
HEARING NONE, LaCHONE.
6:54:21PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
THANK YOU AGAIN, COUNCIL.
LaCHONE DOCK, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
I'M GOING TO PUT THE AERIAL MAP BACK UP JUST TO SHOW YOU
AGAIN THE AREA UNDER THIS REQUEST, UNDER THIS REZONING, AND
ALSO JUST TO TALK ABOUT THE SURROUNDING ZONINGS THAT EXIST
SURROUNDING THE PROPERTY BOUNDARY.
YOU CAN SEE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE PARCELS ARE WITHIN THE
YC SPECIAL DISTRICT.
AND YOU CAN SEE THE MIXTURE OF THE YC DESIGNATIONS THAT

EXIST, THE YC 1 ALONG 22nd STREET, YOU HAVE MORE OF YOUR
COMMERCIAL CORE WITH THE YC 5 AND YC 6 DESIGNATIONS.
AS YOU HEAD FURTHER EAST THAT DOTTED LINE IS THE BOUNDARY
FOR THE YBOR CITY DISTRICT.
THEN YOU ENTER INTO YOUR INDUSTRIAL ZONES.
NORTH OF 6th AVENUE YOU HAVE INDUSTRIAL GENERAL, THE IG
ZONING THAT EXISTS, AND THEN SOUTH OF 6th AVENUE, YOU HAVE
THE IH, INDUSTRIAL HEAVY ZONE.
THE AREA HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN INDUSTRIAL AND THOSE USES ARE
CONSISTENT WITH THE UNDERLYING ZONING.
AND I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A SECOND JUST TO EXPLAIN THE PDA.
WE DON'T RECEIVE THE PDA REZONING REQUEST TOO OFTEN, BUT THE
PDA IS A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ALTERNATIVE.
YOU CAN DO A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ALTERNATIVE IF YOU HAVE AT
LEAST 20 ACRES OF LAND OR MORE.
IT ANTICIPATES PHASED DEVELOPMENT.
MOSTLY WHAT COMES BEFORE THIS COUNCIL ARE PD REZONINGS AND
YOU RECEIVE A SITE PLAN.
IT HAS THE SPECIFIC DATA REGARDING THE PROPERTY.
YOU CAN SEE THE BUILDING PLACEMENT, PARKING PLACEMENT, CURB
CUTS, ALL OF THAT DETAIL ON THE PD SITE PLAN.
ON A PDA IT IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT.
YOU'RE PROVIDED AN OVERALL BOUNDARY, AND THERE IS A SET OF
ENTITLEMENTS THAT ARE ALLOWED WITHIN THAT BOUNDARY OF THAT
PDA.

AND AS EACH PHASE IS DEVELOPED, THE APPLICANT OR THE
DEVELOPER MUST SUBMIT FOR INCREMENTAL REVIEW.
YOU'LL SEE WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT AND ALSO REFERENCES TO
INCREMENTAL REVIEW PRIOR TO PERMITTING.
SO THEY MUST SUBMIT, THAT IS AN ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW.
THAT INCREMENTAL SITE PLAN IS COMPARED TO THE OVERALL
ENTITLEMENTS GRANTED IN THE PDA.
AND SO AT EACH PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT FOR THE INCREMENTAL
REVIEW, DRAWDOWN MUST BE SUBMITTED TO SHOW THE ENTITLEMENTS
THAT ARE BEING REQUESTED IF THAT PARTICULAR PHASE, AND WHAT
ENTITLEMENTS ARE REMAINING FOR THE SPECIFIC CATEGORIES.
SO THAT IS THE PDA.
SO WHAT YOU SEE BEFORE YOU, WHAT WAS SUBMITTED AS A PART OF
THE SITE PLAN IS SOMETHING THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS.
THIS SHOWS THE OVERALL PROJECT BOUNDARY AND WHAT HAS BEEN
DONE HERE IS YOU CAN SEE THE BLOCKS THAT ARE LABELED.
EACH BLOCK IS IDENTIFIED WITH A LETTER.
STARTING WITH THE AA BLOCKS ON THE WEST AND TRANSITIONING
OVER TO BLOCK I TO THE EASTERN BOUNDARY.
SO THE DATA TABLE THAT IS A PART OF THE SITE PLAN AND THE
DESIGN BOOK, THEY ALL REFERENCE A BLOCK, AND THIS IS THE
BLOCK THAT IS ASSOCIATED WITH IT, WITH THAT REFERENCE.
BUT THE RESIDENTIAL TYPES, THERE IS A CAP AT 2,279 UNITS.
FOR OFFICE, THERE IS 339,300 SQUARE FEET.
COMMERCIAL RETAIL SALES, THERE'S 283,400 SQUARE FEET.

AND HOTEL IS PROPOSED AT 149 ROOMS.
I JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU THE ENTITLEMENTS CHART.
THIS DETERMINES, THIS IS THE OVERALL SET OF ENTITLEMENTS FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT.
AS AN INCREMENTAL PLAN IS SUBMITTED, A CHART SIMILAR TO THIS
IS SUBMITTED ALONG WITH IT AND IT SHOWS THE DRAWDOWN,
WHETHER 20,000 SQUARE FEET OF OFFICE FROM THE 339,300 SQUARE
FEET.
ONE THING THAT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS WITHIN THE PDA
BOUNDARY, TRADE-OFFS ARE ALLOWED IN THESE ENTITLEMENTS.
SO THE USES THAT ARE ALLOWED WITHIN THE DEVELOPMENT CAN
TRADE OFF BETWEEN THE BLOCKS, AS LONG AS IT DOES NOT EXCEED
THE MAXIMUMS THAT ARE LISTED WITHIN THE ENTITLEMENTS CHART.
ALSO, ALTHOUGH CI USES ARE ALLOWED, THERE ARE CERTAIN CI
USES THAT ARE PROHIBITED WITH THIS REQUEST.
AMONG THEM ARE CEMETERY, ADULT USE, APPLIANCE AND EQUIPMENT
REPAIR.
CREMATORIUM, DRY-CLEANING PLANT, LARGE AND SMALL, VERMIN
CONTROL AND RELATED SERVICES, THOSE ARE PROHIBITED USES,
ALTHOUGH THE CI USES ARE ALLOWED WITHIN A DEVELOPMENT.
AND THE REQUEST ALSO INCLUDES AN ASSOCIATED DESIGN
GUIDELINES BOOK.
THAT BOOK PROVIDES THE DETAILS.
THIS IS REGARDING SIGNAGE, PARKING, PUBLIC REALM, OPEN
SPACE, ALL OF THOSE PROVIDE THAT FRAMEWORK FOR THE

DEVELOPMENT.
AND THAT'S ALSO BEEN PROVIDED TO YOU AS A PART OF THE SITE
PLAN PACKAGE.
I HAVE PICTURES OF THE SITE.
I'M NOT GOING TO SHOW 55 PICTURES, CHAIRMAN.
6:59:31PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
I'M VERY GRATEFUL.
6:59:36PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
SO I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I'M GOING TO SHOW A
COUPLE OF THE BOUNDARIES.
THIS IS THE WESTERN BOUNDARY.
AS YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE SITES ARE OCCUPIED.
SOME OF THE PARCELS WITHIN THE PROJECT AREA, THEY ARE
OCCUPIED AND OTHERS ARE VACANT.
BUT THAT'S STARTING WITH THE WEST BOUNDARY.
THIS IS ON 19th STREET, ALSO THAT WESTERN BOUNDARY.
AND JUST TO RELATE IT, THESE ARE THE BLOCK NUMBERS ALSO
PROVIDED.
THAT'S LOOKING WEST.
THAT'S BLOCK C-4.
HEADING TOWARDS THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE PROJECT AREA, AND
THAT'S LOOKING WEST AT BLOCK C-5.
THIS IS ON 7th AVENUE, AND THAT'S LOOKING EAST.
THIS IS LOOKING WEST ON 7th.
WE'RE NEAR THE CENTER OF THE PROJECT AREA.
THIS IS THE NORTH BOUNDARY OF THE PROJECT AREA, ALMOST TO

THE NORTHEAST OF BLOCK G-4 AND THIS IS ANOTHER VIEW.
I JUST TRIED TO CAPTURE MORE THAN ONE PARCEL IN THE VIEW,
AND THEN THE LAST, I WENT TO THE EAST, TOWARDS THE EASTERN
BOUNDARIES.
THIS IS THE INDUSTRIAL AREA IN BLOCKS -- AND G.
THERE ARE TWO WAIVERS WITH THE REQUEST.
THE FIRST WAIVER SECTION 27-284.2.5, REQUEST TO REMOVE FIVE
NON-HAZARDOUS GRAND TREES.
AND THAT WILL BE SHOWN ON THE TWO RECONFIGURATIONS AND ALSO
DUE AT THE TIME OF INCREMENTAL SITE PLAN REVIEW AND PRIOR TO
PERMITTING.
THE NEXT WAIVER IS SECTION 27-284.4.1, AND THIS IS TO REDUCE
THE MINIMUM REQUIRED TREE RETENTION PERCENTAGE FOR
NONRESIDENTIAL, NON-WOODED LOT FROM 50% TO 0%.
WITH THAT, DRC STAFF FINDS THE REQUEST CONSISTENT.
THERE ARE SITE PLAN MODIFICATIONS TO BE MADE.
THERE'S ALSO A SUPPLEMENTAL REVISION SHEET WHICH HAS BEEN
PROVIDED TO YOU.
ALSO THIS PROPERTY, GIVEN THAT PARTS OF THE PROPERTY ARE IN
THE YC DISTRICT, IT REQUIRES BLC REVIEW.
AT THE TIME OF THE STAFF REPORT, THE BLC HEARING HAD NOT
BEEN HELD WHERE WE HAD THE RECOMMENDATION FROM THE BLC, AND
THAT OCCURRED THIS WEEK.
I HAVE PROVIDED A COPY OF THE BLC RECOMMENDATION.
AND THAT SUPPLEMENTAL REVISION SHEET INCLUDES THE CHANGES

AND CONDITIONS RECOMMENDED FROM THE BLC.
THE APPLICANT HAS AGREED TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES, AND ALSO, I
WOULD JUST LIKE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT WE HAVE HEATHER BONDS
HERE.
SHE IS WITH HISTORIC PRESERVATION.
AND WOULD YOU LIKE TO SPEAK ON THE BLC FINDING?
SHE WILL SPEAK ON THE BLC RECOMMENDATION.
I'M AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON THE REZONING.
7:02:22PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE REVISION SHEET.
SO SHE'S PERFECT.
7:02:26PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COME ON UP.
7:02:28PM >> HEATHER BONDS, HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
7:02:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WOW THAT IS LOUD.
[ SOUNDING GAVEL ]
YOU ARE OUT OF ORDER.
[ LAUGHTER ]
GO AHEAD.
7:03:00PM >> THIS CAME BEFORE THE BLC THIS PAST TUESDAY, JUNE 23rd.
THE BLC MOTIONED TO RECOMMEND CITY COUNCIL APPROVE THIS
REZONING.
THEY PUT SEVERAL CONDITIONS AS PART OF THEIR REVIEW.
I WANTED TO MENTION THAT THE BLC DOES HAVE THE AUTHORIZED
POWER TO REVIEW REZONINGS, AND THEIR RECOMMENDATION IS TO
THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PRESERVE THE HISTORICAL INTEGRITY

AND THE APPEARANCE OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.
AND WITH THAT INTENT IN MIND, THEY HAD 13 CONDITIONS, 13
CONDITIONS.
CAN I READ THEM AND EXPLAIN THEM IF YOU'D PREFER.
YOU HAVE THEM.
OKAY.
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY CLARIFICATIONS YOU MAY HAVE ON ANY
OF THE CONDITIONS.
7:03:53PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
13 CONDITIONS BUT ONLY 10 REVISIONS.
I DON'T SEE, FOR EXAMPLE, THE MAXIMUM PERMITTED BUILDING
HEIGHT ON BLOCK B 8 REDUCED FROM CURRENT HEIGHT LIMIT OF 60
FEET TO 45 FEET.
SO WHERE IS THAT IN THE REVISION SHEET?
7:04:10PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
I CAN ASSIST WITH THAT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
LaCHONE DOCK, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION.
I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION THAT THIS CASE WAS BEFORE THE BLC ON
APRIL 28 AND MAY 5.
AT THAT TIME, A FAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION WAS PROVIDED.
BUT THEN IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE APPLICATION WAS
IMPROPERLY NOTICED.
SO THE APPLICANT ACTUALLY TOOK THE FEEDBACK FROM THAT,
INCORPORATED IT INTO THE FINAL SITE PLAN THAT YOU HAVE
BEFORE YOU.
SO THE SITE PLAN THAT IS SUBMITTED OF RECORD ACTUALLY

INCORPORATES SOME OF THOSE CHANGES ALREADY.
WHAT I DID I LEFT WHAT REMAINED.
I SHOULD HAVE EXPLAINED THAT.
7:04:48PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
NO, I APPRECIATE THAT.
I WAS LIKE, HOLD ON.
BECAUSE IT LOOKS MOSTLY THE SAME.
7:04:53PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
PROACTIVE, HAD IT DONE.
7:04:55PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THANK YOU.
I APPRECIATE THAT.
I KNOW IT WAS IMPORTANT TO THE COMMUNITY, THE FEEL THAT IT
CONNECTED.
I APPRECIATE IT.
THAT'S MY ONLY QUESTION.
7:05:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I WANT TO THANK THE BLC ON THIS.
I THINK YOU GUYS DID EXTRAORDINARY WORK AND YOU REALLY
BROUGHT A PROJECT AND REALLY MADE IT TREMENDOUSLY BETTER.
I THINK YOU GUYS DID GREAT WORK.
EXPRESS OUR GRATITUDE TO THE BLC.
7:05:14PM >> IT WAS A LOT OF COLLABORATIVE WORK WITH THE APPLICANT.
7:05:17PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I DID HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION ABOUT THIS.
BECAUSE IT IS A PDA AND BECAUSE IT'S IN THE HISTORIC
DISTRICT, WHEN THESE CHANGES COME FORWARD TO STAFF, DO THEY
STILL NEED TO GO TO THE BLC FOR SOME OF THESE APPROVALS?
7:05:33PM >> ABSOLUTELY, FOR ALL NEW CONSTRUCTION.
7:05:35PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BUT I WANTED IT TO BE ON THE RECORD.

THAT'S WHY I ASKED THE QUESTION.
BUT THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
BECAUSE I THINK THAT PROVIDES, AGAIN, A LEVEL OF SAFETY TO
THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO MAKE SURE THAT AS THIS GOES FORWARD,
IT'S NOT JUST ONE GIANT THING AND THEY CAN BUILD WHATEVER.
THEY STILL HAVE TO COME TO THE BARRIO FOR THE PIECES WITHIN
THAT DISTRICT.
THAT IS WHY I ASKED THE QUESTION.
7:05:59PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I GOT IT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
APPLICANT?
ALREADY PASS MY 7:06.
TRY TO MAKE 7:15.
7:06:09PM >> YOU GUYS ARE GETTING A BREAK FROM ME.
GETTING AVI.
7:06:15PM >> I'M GOING TO START BEFORE SHE PULLS THIS UP.
I'LL TRY TO KEEP THESE REMARKS FAIRLY BRIEF.
WE DID HAVE ABOUT SIX HOURS OF HEARINGS IN FRONT OF THE BLC.
I'LL TRY TO --
7:06:24PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
START WITH YOUR NAME.
7:06:26PM >> -- TRY TO KEEP THIS SHORT.
MY NAME IS AVI FRIEDMAN SHAW WITH THE APPLICANT, CASA YBOR.
AS ALEX MENTIONED, AS LaCHONE AND HEATHER MENTIONED, WE'RE
ASKING TO REZONE APPROXIMATELY 30 ACRES PRIMARILY WITHIN
EAST YBOR.

THAT IS PRIMARILY CONSISTS OF THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE, WHICH IS
TODAY IN YBOR ABOUT EIGHT AND A HALF ACRES AS WELL AS SOME
VACANT UNDERUTILIZED AND INDUSTRIAL LAND MOSTLY ALONG 7th
AVENUE GOING EAST FROM 22nd STREET TO ABOUT THE CROSSTOWN
CONNECTOR, THE ELEVATED HIGHWAY.
WE'RE ASKING TO REZONE TO PDA.
I WANT TO THANK THE CITY STAFF.
I WANT TO THANK THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION DEPARTMENT AS WELL
AS THE BLC FOR THE COUNTLESS HOURS THEY SPENT WITH US AS THE
APPLICANT TO HELP FINE TUNE THIS PLAN.
7:07:16PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
HAVE THIS ON THE PUBLIC MONITORS AS WELL,
PLEASE.
7:07:23PM >> WHY ARE WE COMING BEFORE THE COUNCIL FOR A PDA VERSUS
DOING INDIVIDUAL LOT BY LOT ZONING IN YBOR WHICH IS ALREADY
PRETTY PERMISSIVE, THERE ARE REALLY A FEW REASONS.
EAST YBOR SPECIFICALLY HAS NOT SEEN A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT IN
THE PAST 40 YEARS SINCE THE YC ZONINGS WERE PUT INTO PLACE.
A LOT OF VACANT, UNDERUTILIZED.
A LOT OF SURFACE PARKING LOTS.
MOST OF THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE IS TOTALLY INACCESSIBLE TO THE
PUBLIC.
20th STREET IS CLOSED OFF.
9th AVENUE WAS SEVERED ABOUT 50 YEARS AGO.
PDA LETS US DO A FEW THINGS, ONE, RECONSTRUCT STREET GRID.
TWO REQUIRE 10% OPEN SPACE AND PUBLIC AMENITIES.

COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, AS YOU MENTIONED FOR AN EARLIER AGENDA
ITEM THAT RUNS WITH THE LAND.
EVEN IF WE DON'T OWN ALL THIS IN THE FUTURE, IT IS A
REQUIRED COMPONENT OF THE PDA TO PROVIDE THE PUBLIC OPEN
SPACE.
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT REASONS IS TO CENTRALIZE PARKING.
TODAY, ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES IN YBOR IN DEVELOPING
IS WHERE DO YOU PUT ALL THE PARKING?
IT'S IN URBAN-TYPE LOTS.
EVERYTHING IS DEVELOPED LOT LINE TO LOT LINE.
TAKE THE PARKING FROM INDIVIDUAL LOTS AND PUT THEM IN A
CENTRALIZED PLACE ALLOWS THAT GROUND FLOOR TO BE OCCUPIED BY
PEOPLE AND NOT BY CARS, BY BUSINESSES.
I'M GOING TO PAUSE HERE REALLY QUICKLY.
THIS IS AN IMAGE OF 23rd STREET AND 7th AVENUE LOOKING
WEST.
ONE THING YOU'LL NOTICE VERY WIDE SIDEWALKS WITH STREET
TREES, PANELS AND CONTINUATION OF THAT SAME 7th AVENUE
CADENCE YOU GET ELSEWHERE FARTHER WEST.
WE HAD THREE KEY DESIGN PRINCIPLES.
THIS IS A CONCEPTUAL RENDERING OF WHAT THIS WOULD LOOK LIKE.
EVERY SINGLE BUILDING WILL COME BACK TO THE BLC FOR
CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS BEFORE A BUILDING PERMIT.
THAT'S EVERY SINGLE BUILDING WITHIN THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.
WE THOUGHT ABOUT CONTEXTUAL SENSITIVITY.

THE EXISTING CADENCE OF YBOR.
URBAN CONTINUITY, REOPENING THE STREET GRID ESPECIALLY AT
9th AVENUE.
FINALLY, PRIORITIZING WALKABILITY AND THE PEDESTRIAN GROUND
PLAN.
AS LaCHONE MENTIONED, WE DIVIDED THIS UP INTO A FEW
DIFFERENT SUBAREAS.
YOU HAVE THE TRANSIT ORIENTED AREA NEXT TO THE TECO
STREETCAR, THE 7th AVENUE OVERLAY DISTRICT, WHICH HAS MORE
STRINGENT REGULATIONS RELATED TO HEIGHTS AND SETBACKS
BECAUSE IT IS ON 7th AVENUE, THAT COLOR IN MAUVE, BLOCK
C-70, 7G4, B-8 AND OTHERS, THAT'S INTENDED TO HAVE MORE
MODERATE SCALE NEXT TO NEIGHBORHOODS.
FINALLY, IN BLUE, YOU HAVE THE NONHISTORIC SUBAREA WHICH IS
OUTSIDE OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.
THAT'S INTENDED TO PROVIDE A NICE BUFFER FROM THE ELEVATED
HIGHWAY, WHICH YOU CAN KIND OF SEE FROM MOST PLACES IN YBOR.
HISTORIC CONTEXT, WE HAVE ABOUT 22 CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURES
WITHIN THIS PDA, THOSE WILL ALL BE PRESERVED.
ANY REQUESTS WE WOULD MAKE TO CHANGE THOSE, THAT'S ALL
COMING BEFORE THE BLC.
THAT IS NOT SOMETHING WE CAN DO BY RIGHT.
WE HAVE SPECIFIC BLOCK BY BLOCK HEIGHT LIMITS FOR EACH OF
THE INDIVIDUAL BLOCKS.
AGAIN, WHICH WAS APPROVED BY THE BLC.

I KNOW THAT SOMETIMES WITH PDAs THERE ARE ADMINISTRATIVE
HEIGHT INCREASES ALLOWED.
WE'RE GOING AHEAD AND BARRING THAT.
NO INTENTION.
BUILDING HEIGHTS AND SETBACKS, AGAIN, WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME
ON THIS WITH THE BLC.
IN SHORT, TODAY IN YBOR, BUILD FROM 35 FEET UP TO 60 FEET.
60 FEET YC 6 ZONING AND PERMITTED IN THE SOUTHERN PORTIONS
OF YBOR, WE'RE KEEPING WITHIN THAT SAME ENVELOPE HERE.
THERE'S NOTHING THAT WILL BE ABOVE THAT 60-FOOT HEIGHT LIMIT
THAT YOU ALREADY SEE ELSEWHERE IN YBOR.
ANYTHING THAT REACHES THE 60-FOOT HEIGHT LIMIT, AS YOU'LL
SEE FROM THE DIAGRAM HERE, THAT TOP STORY WILL BE SET BACK
FROM THE STREET WHICH PRESERVES THAT STREET WALL AND LIMITS
ANY OF THAT VISIBILITY FROM THE STREET.
PARKING, THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST REASONS WE'RE DOING THIS
PDA.
IT'S SO YOU CAN PARK THINGS CENTRALLY AND NOT ON INDIVIDUAL
BLOCKS.
THIS SIDE, I'LL POINT OUT FOUR SPECIFIC BLOCKS, B-3, B-4,
B-8 AND D-6.
IT'S KIND OF IN THE CENTER.
B3, B4, AND B8 ARE IN BETWEEN 21st AND 22nd.
TWO THINGS YOU'LL NOTICE ABOUT THOSE STREETS, THEY ARE
ONE-WAY STREETS GOING NORTH AND SOUTH.

THOSE ARE THE EXIT RAMPS FROM THE SELMON TO THE SOUTH AND
I-4 TO THE NORTH.
SO THE IDEA IS TO PULL CENTRALIZED PARKING THERE TO CATCH
CARS BEFORE THEY SPREAD OUT INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
ALWAYS HAVE SOME NEED FOR GROUND FLOOR PARKING IN SOME OF
THESE BUILDINGS.
MOBILITY CHALLENGES, FOLKS PUSHING STROLLERS, NICE TO BE
ABLE TO OFFER THEM PARKING RIGHT NEXT TO THE ELEVATOR OF
THEIR BUILDING WHETHER RESIDENTS OR EMPLOYEES, BUT WE THINK
THAT MOST PEOPLE SHOULD BE ABLE TO PARK IN CENTRALIZED
GARAGES AND WALK ONE OR TWO BLOCKS TO WHEREVER THEY NEED TO
GO.
D-6 WAS THE ITEM YOU HEARD EARLIER ABOUT THE VACATING OF
THAT ALLEY.
THAT'S REALLY A PERFECT PLACE TO PUT PARKING BECAUSE IT'S
CENTRAL TO THIS PDA.
PARK SIX OTHER BLOCKS AROUND IT.
TWO, THAT PARKING GARAGE BACKS UP TO THE CSX TRACKS TO THE
SOUTH SIDE OF THE CSX TRACKS.
THERE'S NO HISTORIC CASITAS, NO HOME, NO ONE LOOKING THROUGH
THE WINDOWS SEEING THE BACK SIDE OF A PARKING GARAGE.
YOU CAN PUT THE PARKING GARAGE TO THE BACK NEXT TO THE CSX
TRACKS.
NORTH SIDE 7th AVENUE, NICE DEEP RETAIL NOT AFFECTED BY
THE PARKING GARAGE.

THAT'S WHY WE ASKED FOR THE VACATING ON THAT ONE SPECIFIC
BLOCK.
THE PUBLIC REALM, THIS IS ONE OF THE OTHER KEY REASONS DOING
THE PDA.
BY THE WAY, THIS IS 26th STREET AND 7th AVENUE.
RIGHT NOW TODAY ON 7th AVENUE, I ACTUALLY HAVE A PHOTO OF
IT.
THE BOTTOM RIGHT PICTURE, THIS IS THAT SAME LOCATION.
THERE'S BASICALLY NOTHING THERE.
THERE IS A SMALL PILLAR AND PLAQUE THAT LETS YOU KNOW YOU'RE
GOING TO THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.
WE'D LIKE TO HAVE A GRANDEUR ENTRANCE TO THE HISTORIC
DISTRICT.
OTHER SIDE OF 7th AVENUE, YOU HAVE A NICE BIG GATE AND
OVERHANG.
WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE TWIN PARKS HERE.
ABOUT YOU IN SHORT, WE'D LIKE TO DO A FEW THINGS WITH THE
PUBLIC REALM.
ONE IS RESTORE THE STREET GRID AND PUBLIC SIDEWALKS.
TWO IS ADD ABOUT THREE ACRES OF PUBLIC OPEN SPACE.
WE'RE REQUIRING ABOUT THREE ACRES, 130,000 SQUARE FEET
ACROSS THE PDA AREA, AND JUST EXTEND THE WALKABLE DISTRICT
EASTWARD.
TODAY, MOST VISITORS TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD THINK THAT THE
HISTORIC DISTRICT ENDS AT THE COLUMBIA RESTAURANT.

IT DOESN'T.
IT ENDS ABOUT THREE BLOCKS EASTWARD.
WE'D LIKE TO CONTINUE THAT CADENCE.
THE STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS PROPOSING ABOUT A MILE AND A
HALF OF NEW STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE HISTORIC
DISTRICT.
75% OF THE NEW STREET TREES OTHER THAN 7th AVENUE WHICH
WILL BE PALMS TO REFLECT THE HISTORIC CADENCE, WILL BE
SHADE-PRODUCING TYPE ONE TREES.
THIS IS IMPORTANT, WHEN I WALKED DOWN 7th AVENUE FOR
LUNCH, I HAVE TO CROSS THE STREET TO THE SOUTH SIDE BECAUSE
MY FACE IS GETTING BLASTED BY THE SUN.
NICE TO HAVE STREET TREES PRODUCING AN URBAN CANOPY AND
SHADE RATHER THAN JUST PALMS.
WE'LL KEEP THE PALMS ON 7th AVENUE.
PARKS AND OPEN SPACE, ALREADY MENTIONED THIS.
A COUPLE OF KEY SPACES ALREADY STAKED OUT FOR POTENTIAL
PARKS.
ON 8th, ON 8th AVENUE, AS WELL AS THOSE TWIN PARKS
TOWARDS THE END OF 7th AVENUE.
FINALLY, THIS 9th AVENUE PASEO, THE BOTTOM LEFT-HAND
CORNER, THIS IS WHERE THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE IS.
THEY TAKE UP A SUPER BLOCK.
WE'LL GO AHEAD AND REOPEN THAT AND CREATE A WIDE PEDESTRIAN
SPACE WITH RETAIL SHOPS PRIMARILY PEDESTRIAN, BUT IT WILL

ALLOW FOR GROUND FLOOR OUTDOOR DINING AND THINGS OF THAT
NATURE.
THAT IS THE HIGH LEVEL OF THIS PLAN.
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY OTHER QUESTIONS THE COUNCIL MEMBERS
HAVE.
GO INTO MORE DETAIL, ALLOW FOR PUBLIC COMMENT, WHATEVER YOU
GUYS RECOMMEND.
7:14:26PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
Q & A RIGHT NOW.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
7:14:28PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I'M REALLY GLAD YOU TALKED ABOUT TREES
BECAUSE THAT IS THE FIRST THING I WROTE.
LIKE PALM TREES.
BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND THAT 7th AVENUE IS HISTORIC.
I GET IT, BUT WE ARE IN UNPRECEDENTED TIMES OF HEAT.
I REALLY DO BELIEVE THAT THE TIME FOR PALM TREES HAS PASSED.
I RESPECT THE HISTORIC.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S REQUIRED FOR THIS.
NO.
SO IT'S NOT REQUIRED FOR HISTORIC.
I WOULD ASK YOU TO RECONSIDER PALM TREES.
AND ONLY BECAUSE WE'RE JUST GETTING HOTTER AND HOTTER AND
HOTTER, AND WE WANT PEOPLE TO WALK DOWN 7th AVENUE.
7:15:05PM >> I AGREE.
7:15:06PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
SO JUST TAKE THAT FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH.
SECONDARILY, ON THE EAST SIDE, YOU END THE SELMON CONNECTOR.

7:15:13PM >> YES.
7:15:14PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THE SELMON CONNECTOR UNDER THAT IS AN
ABSOLUTE JUST WASTED SPACE AND GEM OF WHAT COULD BE.
I REALLY HOPE YOU ARE WORKING WITH THEA AND F.D.O.T. TO
REIMAGINE THAT SPACE SO THAT NOT ONLY DOES IT BECOME MORE
USABLE, IT CONNECTS GARY BACK TO YBOR, WHICH IS SOMETHING
THAT NEIGHBORHOOD HAS BEEN ASKING FOR FOR A LONG TIME.
I'M HOPING THAT -- AND I MENTIONED IT WHEN WE DID I THINK
THE COMP PLAN CHANGE FOR WHERE THE HOSPITAL IS GOING TO BE.
I FELT THE NEED TO REITERATE THAT HERE BECAUSE IT'S SO
IMPORTANT, AND TO GO BACK TO THE PALM TREES FOR A SECOND, WE
SPENT OUR ENTIRE MORNING TALKING ABOUT TREES, AND THERE WAS
SOMEONE FROM YBOR WHO SPECIFICALLY CAME TO SAY WE WANT MORE
SHADE TREES.
SO IT'S A THING.
MY LAST THING, OF COURSE, IS GOING TO BE BIKES.
AND BIKE STORAGE PARKING FOR BOTH RESIDENTIAL AND
COMMERCIAL, PREFERABLY PROTECTED, SECURED BIKE PARKING, YES,
GREAT.
BUT ALSO FOR -- AND THAT'S RESIDENTIAL, BUT WHAT ABOUT ALL
THE EMPLOYEES?
AND WHERE CAN THEY FIND SECURE BIKE PARKING THAT ALSO MIGHT
POSSIBLY IN ONE OR TWO CENTRAL LOCATIONS INCLUDE AN AREA
WHERE THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO SHOWER AND GET READY FOR THE
DAY.

IT'S COMMON IN OTHER LARGE CITIES, AND IT'S WHAT I'D LIKE TO
SEE OUR CITY BECOME AS E-BIKES BECOME MORE PREVALENT AND AS
PARKING BECOMES LESS -- OR A BIGGER CONCERN.
SO THAT'S ONE THING.
THAT'S ANOTHER THING I WOULD LIKE YOU TO TRY TO BRING
FORWARD.
7:17:09PM >> SURE.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, TOTALLY AGREE.
FOR ANY COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS OVER 20,000 SQUARE FEET, THERE
IS ON-SITE COVERED BICYCLE STORAGE REQUIRED.
ANY RESIDENTIAL BUILDING MORE THAN 15 UNITS, SAME
REQUIREMENT.
WE HAVE ON-SITE REQUIRED BICYCLE STORAGE.
THERE ARE OTHER WAYS WE'RE TRYING TO INCENTIVIZE, CAR
SHARES, SCOOTERS, BICYCLES, WE DON'T LIKE ALL THE CARS.
WE'RE TRYING TO CENTRALIZE THAT AND TAKE THAT OFF THE TABLE
AS MUCH AS WE CAN.
7:17:34PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
AWESOME.
THAT'S WHAT I WOULD SAY FOR OFFICE USE.
WHEN YOU'RE BUILDING OFFICE SPACE, HAVE ONE OR TWO.
WE PUT THREE IN HANNA CITY CENTER THAT ARE JUST BATHROOMS
WITH SHOWERS SO PEOPLE HAVE A CHANCE TO CLEAN UP AFTER THEIR
BIKE RIDE INTO WORK AND THEN THEY CAN STORE THEIR STUFF IN
THEIR OFFICE.
GOT TO BE ABLE TO CLEAN UP.

WE'RE TRYING WITH THE CITY, I'M TRYING TO INCENTIVIZE THAT,
ESPECIALLY IN OFFICE SPACE MOVING FORWARD, BUT THANK YOU.
7:18:04PM >> THANK YOU, COUNCILWOMAN.
7:18:05PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
VERY GOOD.
COMPLETE YOUR PRESENTATION?
ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WISH TO SPEAK TO THIS ITEM?
COME ON UP.
START WITH YOUR NAME, PLEASE.
7:18:13PM >> CHRIS WOJTOWICZ, W-O-J-T-O-W-I-C-Z.
1508 NORTH 20TH STREET.
I WANT TO START BY APOLOGIZING TO COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN FOR
EXTENDING THIS MEETING.
I WANT TO THANK COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK FOR HER STEWARDSHIP OF
THE DISTRICT AND TAKING A VERY CLOSE LOOK AT THIS AND ASKING
EXCELLENT QUESTIONS.
THANK YOU.
JUST REAL QUICK, TO GIVE YOU CONTEXT, EVERY PICTURE THEY
SHOWED, THE MAP, MY HOUSE IS VISIBLE.
I LIVE IN THE MIDDLE OF WHERE ALL OF THIS IS HAPPENING.
MY WIFE AND I BUILT THAT HOUSE TEN YEARS AGO.
WE INVESTED HEAVILY IN RESIDENTS OF YBOR.
WE DO NOT OWN ANY OTHER PROPERTIES OR BUSINESSES IN THE
DISTRICT.
WE ONLY JUST LIVE HERE.
WE HAVE ONE CAR BETWEEN US AND WE DRIVE 7,000 MILES A YEAR.

WE WALK EVERYWHERE.
I WALKED EVERY ONE OF THE BLOCKS AND THEY COULD SEE ALL USE
A FEW THINGS.
ONE, ADDITIONAL SHADE TREES.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
WE DEFINITELY NEED THAT.
CONTINUOUS SIDEWALKS.
LOTS OF SIDEWALKS ARE MISSING.
AND A PLACE TO GO CHECK OUT.
RIGHT NOW THERE'S NOTHING THERE.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PLACES INACCESSIBLE TO THE PUBLIC.
SURFACE PARKING LOTS AND VACANT LOTS.
I'M EXCITED TO SEE SOMETHING INTERESTING AND WALKABLE AND
FUN IN THE DISTRICT JUST TO MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE.
SO MY THREE KEY POINTS ABOUT IT, ONE, WALKABILITY, YOU JUST
HEARD ABOUT IT.
TWO, DENSITY.
YBOR USED TO BE A DENSE COMMUNITY.
MEANS GROCERY STORES, DOCTORS OFFICES, CLEANERS, ALL KINDS
OF THINGS IT DOESN'T HAVE TODAY BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SUPPORT
THE DENSITY.
THIRD AND FINAL THING TO MAKE THIS QUICK IS BALANCE.
RIGHT NOW, YBOR CITY IS TILTED TO THE WEST BECAUSE OF THE
PARKING GARAGES THERE AND THE INVESTMENTS TO THE WEST, THE
ONLY THING IN THE EAST IS COLUMBIA, AS MENTIONED, IF YOU ARE

AT THE COLUMBIA RESTAURANT AND YOU WALK OUT, YOU'RE DOING
ONE OF TWO THINGS, YOU'RE WALKING TO YOUR CAR OR TURNING
LEFT.
LET'S GIVE THEM A REASON TO TURN RIGHT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
7:19:49PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU.
NEXT SPEAKER, PLEASE.
START WITH YOUR NAME.
7:19:53PM >> JOSE, 2402 EAST 11th AVENUE.
WHAT CHRIS WAS SAYING, CHRIS, THANK YOU, WE DEFINITELY NEED
SHADE TREES IN YBOR CITY.
BEEN A RESIDENT OF EAST YBOR FOR OVER TEN YEARS.
SOME OF YOU GUYS HAVE COME TO OUR MEETINGS.
I HAVE SERVED WITH THE ASSOCIATION ABOUT TEN YEARS.
WAS PRESIDENT, RIGHT NOW I SERVE AS TREASURER.
WE ARE FULLY IN SUPPORT OF THE NEW DEVELOPMENT.
I WORKED REALLY HARD TO BRING ALONGSIDE MY BOARD MEMBERS AND
OUR RESIDENTS AND NEIGHBORS TO BRING EAST YBOR TO THE MAP OF
THE CITY, WORK ALONGSIDE THE POLICE TO CLEAR THE
NEIGHBORHOOD OF ALL THE NUISANCES MENTIONED BEFORE.
PROSTITUTION, HOMELESS CAMPS.
HONESTLY, I FEEL LIKE EAST YBOR IS THE SAFEST PLACE TO LIVE
IN THE CITY.
LIVED IN SOUTH TAMPA 15 YEARS.
I COULD LEAVE MY DOOR UNLOCKED IF I WANTED TO.

THIS IS SOMETHING ELSE I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR, FOR OVER 60
YEARS.
I THINK THIS DEVELOPMENT IS THE THIRD-MOST EXCITING THING
THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED IN EAST YBOR FIRST.
THE FOUNDING OF THE CITY.
SECOND, NOT A GOOD ONE.
URBAN RENEWAL, AND NOW THIS.
WE LIVE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT STILL LOOKS LIKE A WAR ZONE.
LOTS OF EMPTY LOTS.
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE 35 ACRES READY FOR DEVELOPMENT.
WE HAVE FINALLY A DEVELOPER THAT HAS PROVEN TO BE SENSITIVE
TO THE HISTORIC ROOTS OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, A DEVELOPER THAT
HAS BEEN WORKING ALONGSIDE A VERY STRONG NEIGHBORHOOD
ASSOCIATION TO FIX ALL THE ISSUES THAT WE HAVE.
SO WE HAVE A LOT OF FAITH ON THE CASA YBOR TEAM.
IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK
ALONGSIDE HIM AND YOU GUYS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE, EVEN THOUGH
WE NEED SOME OF THE AMENITIES THAT WEST YBOR ENJOYS, WE ARE
GOING TO BE WORKING ALONGSIDE THIS DEVELOPER TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE DON'T NIGHTCLUBIFY EAST YBOR.
WE WOULD LOVE A DOWNTOWN WALKABLE.
LOOKING FORWARD TO.
DEFINITELY LOOKING AT EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF THIS DEVELOPMENT
AND MAKE SURE THAT WITH THE DENSITY, WITH EVERYTHING, WE
ACHIEVE OUR DREAM OF HAVING A REAL NEIGHBORHOOD.

LOVE TO HAVE PEOPLE FROM -- VISITORS, LOVE TO HAVE PEOPLE
FROM CARROLLWOOD, BUT RESIDENTS HAVE TO KEEP ALWAYS IN MIND
WHEN ANYTHING IS HAPPENING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
AGAIN, ENCOURAGE TO APPROVE THIS.
7:22:35PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
NEXT SPEAKER, PLEASE.
7:22:39PM >> CHRISTIAN LEONE, 2010 EAST PALM AVENUE.
RIGHT NOW SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF THE TAMPA BAY COMMUNITY
DESIGN CENTER, WHICH IS FORMERLY CAD, CENTER FOR
ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN.
SO FROM THE BOARD, WE JUST WANTED TO COMMUNICATE, FIRST OF
ALL, THE BOARD IS MADE UP OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD LIFELONG
EXPERIENCE ADVOCATING FOR GOOD COMMUNITY DESIGN AND FOR
HISTORIC PRESERVATION AND A LOT OF THE THINGS I KNOW EACH OF
YOU HOLD DEARLY AND REALLY, ESPECIALLY IN THIS PROJECT, YOU
REALLY WANT TO MAKE SURE THOSE VALUES ARE TAKEN INTO
CONSIDERATION.
BEFORE THE MEETINGS WITH THE BARRIO LATINO WITH THE BLC,
THERE WAS A LOT OF CONVERSATION BACK AND FORTH WITH THE
DEVELOPER TO MAKE SURE THAT A LOT OF POINTS WERE ADDRESSED.
SO IT'S REALLY REFRESHING TO COME TONIGHT AND TO SEE THE
OUTCOME OF ALL OF THAT WORK.
I KNOW THAT WE'VE GIVEN THANKS TO THE BLC FOR THE WORK THEY
HAVE DONE.

I THINK THEY REALLY HAVE BEEN GREAT STEWARDS OF THE
COMMUNITY.
I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT AS A BOARD WE FEEL VERY
COMFORTABLE WITH, AND WE'RE REALLY HOPEFUL THAT THIS MOVES
FORWARD AND WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING HOW THIS
TRANSFORMS THE NEIGHBORHOOD FOR THE GOOD.
7:23:54PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
VERY GOOD.
HEARING NO OTHERS, CAN I GET A -- DO YOU HAVE REBUTTAL?
7:24:02PM >> WE'LL WAIVE REBUTTAL.
THANKS.
7:24:03PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION TO CLOSE FROM VIERA.
SECOND FROM MIRANDA.
ALL IN FAVOR, AYE.
OPPOSED?
THE AYES HAVE IT.
COUNCILMAN CARLSON, I BELIEVE WE'RE WITH YOU.
7:24:11PM >>BILL CARLSON:
YEAH, I WANT TO SAY ONE THING REAL FAST
BEFORE WE GO, WE PROBABLY APPROVE 98% OF THE REAL ESTATE
PROJECTS WE LOOK AT.
BUT THE FEW THAT WE DON'T, THE DEVELOPERS ALWAYS COMPLAIN
AND BLAME CITY COUNCIL, AND THERE'S A RIGHT WAY AND WRONG
WAY OF ENGAGING WITH THE COMMUNITY, I JUST WANT TO POINT
OUT, THE REASON WHY THERE'S NO OPPOSITION HERE IS NOT
BECAUSE OF THE PROPOSAL ITSELF.

IT'S BECAUSE DARRYL SHAW AND AVI AND OTHERS HAVE SPENT
MONTHS, BUT EVEN YEARS MEETING WITH EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN
THE COMMUNITY SO THEY DEEPLY UNDERSTAND THIS.
IF EVERY DEVELOPER DID THAT, WE COULD APPROVE HUNDRED
PERCENT.
I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION FOR NUMBER 9, FILE REZ-26-28,
ORDINANCE BEING PRESENTED FOR FIRST READING CONSIDERATION,
ORDINANCE REZONING A TOTAL OF 55 PARCELS, OF WHICH 38
PARCELS ARE LOCATED IN THE YBOR CITY HISTORIC DISTRICT,
CONSISTING OF PLUS 30.64 ACRES LOCATED GENERALLY IN AN AREA
BOUNDED TO THE NORTH BY EAST 11th AVENUE, TO THE EAST BY
THE SELMON CONNECTOR, AND THE CSX RIGHT-OF-WAY, TO THE SOUTH
BY EAST 4th AVENUE, AND TO THE WEST BY NORTH 19th STREET
"PROPERTY" IN THE CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA, AND MORE
PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED IN SECTION 1 FROM ZONING DISTRICT
CLASSIFICATION IG INDUSTRIAL GENERAL, YC 1, CENTRAL

7:26:04PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN CARLSON, SECOND
FROM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR AYE.
OPPOSED?
THE AYES HAVE IT.
7:26:11PM >>THE CLERK:
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
SECOND READING AND ADOPTION WILL BE HELD ON JULY 16, 2026 AT
10 A.M. AT OLD CITY HALL, LOCATED AT 315 EAST KENNEDY
BOULEVARD, THIRD FLOOR, TAMPA, FLORIDA, 33602.
7:26:28PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
7:26:29PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
MS. DOCK, I HAVE A QUICK COMMENT FOR YOU.
YOU AND YOUR TEAM CREATE SUCH WONDERFUL STAFF REPORTS.
I WAS JUST THINKING THAT MAYBE FOR THE ALCOHOL ONES THAT WE
COULD SEE ADD A SECTION FOR JUST HOURS OF OPERATION AND THEN
A SECTION FOR AMPLIFIED NOISE AND HOURS, JUST SO THAT AS WE
GO IN, WE CAN SEE IT.
YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE SQUARE FOOTAGE AND ALL OF THAT.
JUST A LITTLE.
7:27:06PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
ON ITS OWN, SECTION WITH THE HOURS OF
OPERATION AND SECTION WITH THE SOUND.
7:27:10PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
IN THE BEGINNING, YOU ALWAYS HAVE THAT NICE
CHART.
MAYBE JUST ANOTHER COUPLE OF LINES ON THAT CHART.
7:27:17PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
ABSOLUTELY.
ABSOLUTELY.
7:27:19PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
BECAUSE I THINK IT WILL REALLY HELP ALL OF US

RIGHT AWAY KNOW.
BECAUSE A SITE PLAN CAN BE VERY HARD TO READ.
7:27:27PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
AGREED, AGREED.
7:27:28PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
AND READING IT ON THE COMPUTER.
7:27:30PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
AND NOW WE EMBED IT IN A PARAGRAPH
SOMEWHERE.
THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
APPRECIATE THE FEEDBACK.
WE'LL DO IT.
7:27:37PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
WE WORK TOGETHER ON THESE BEFORE AND HER TEAM
DOES A PHENOMENAL JOB.
YOU HAVE GREAT IDEAS.
7:27:42PM >>LaCHONE DOCK:
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I APPRECIATE IT.
7:27:44PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
TO THE SHAWS STILL IN THE ROOM,
CONGRATULATIONS, MR. AND MRS. SHAW.
VERY GOOD.
CONGRATULATIONS.
THAT CONCLUDES OUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAM THIS EVENING.
WE'RE DOWN TO NEW BUSINESS.
COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
7:27:56PM >>BILL CARLSON:
I WANT TO MAKE A COUPLE OF QUICK COMMENTS
AND THEN THROW OUT AN IDEA.
ONE IS A FORMER EMPLOYEE TOLD ME RECENTLY THAT AS THIS
EMPLOYEE WAS LEAVING HR TOLD THEM THAT THEY WERE NOT ALLOWED

TO CONTACT CITY COUNCIL IN ANY WAY FOR TWO YEARS.
IF IT'S TRUE, I ASSUME IT'S TRUE BECAUSE SOMEBODY RELIABLE
TOLD ME THIS.
IF THERE IS A PROHIBITION AGAINST LOBBYING OR REPRESENTING
BUSINESS IN FRONT OF THE CITY, BUT IT BOTHERS ME THAT IF
EMPLOYEES ARE BEING TOLD THEY CAN'T CONTACT US IN ANY WAY.
I WANT TO THROW THAT OUT THERE.
THE SECOND ONE IS THAT I THINK -- CAN I MAKE A MOTION ABOUT
THIS IF YOU GUYS LIKE IT OR NOT -- BUT I THINK THERE SHOULD
BE SOME KIND OF IMMUNITY GIVEN TO EMPLOYEES WHO SPEAK AT
CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS.
THE MERE FACT OF SPEAKING OUT AT A CITY COUNCIL MEETING
SHOULD NOT CAUSE SOMEBODY TO GET FIRED.
YOU GUYS CAN THINK, IF YOU ARE IN FAVOR OF IT, I CAN MAKE A
MOTION.
IF YOU AREN'T, I CAN HOLD ON TO IT AND TALK ABOUT IT LATER.
I DON'T LIKE IT THAT HR OR OTHERS, THERE ARE ALLEGATIONS
THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN FIRED OR THREATENED TO BE FIRED FOR
SPEAKING AT CITY COUNCIL.
CITY COUNCIL CAN'T DIRECTLY GET INVOLVED IN ADMINISTRATIVE
EFFORTS, BUT I THINK EMPLOYEES JUST LIKE ANYBODY ELSE HAVE
THE RIGHT TO SPEAK IN FRONT OF CITY COUNCIL.
7:29:15PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WHISTLE-BLOWER PROTECTIONS?
7:29:18PM >>BILL CARLSON:
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THAT WITH SPECIAL
SESSIONS.

LIKE THE CHIEF OF STAFF SAID A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, NO
VERIFIED EVIDENCE OF RETALIATION.
WE KNOW THERE'S LOTS OF RETALIATION.
JUST BECAUSE SOMEBODY SIGNS A SETTLEMENT DOESN'T MEAN THE
RETALIATION DIDN'T HAPPEN.
7:29:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WAS THAT A MOTION?
7:29:34PM >>BILL CARLSON:
YEAH, I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO HAVE
STAFF COME BACK WITH A DRAFT ORDINANCE OR SOME KIND OF
DOCUMENT FOR DISCUSSION ON SEPTEMBER 3rd.
SEPTEMBER 17, TO DISCUSS PROVIDING IMMUNITY FOR EMPLOYEES
WHO WISH TO SPEAK OUT AT PUBLIC COMMENT.
7:29:59PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
IS THERE A SECOND?
7:30:05PM >>LUIS VIERA:
MAY I SPEAK?
I'M OVER HERE MUMBLING.
I'LL SECOND THIS UNDER THE GUISE A WOULD YOU, COULD YOU, SEE
IF IT IS SOMETHING VIABLE.
IF THAT'S SOMETHING YOU WANT TO DISCUSS, I'M FINE.
I'LL SECOND IT.
7:30:22PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION AND SECOND.
COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
7:30:23PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I THINK EVERYONE, WHETHER YOU ARE
DISMISSED OR WHAT, HAS THE RIGHT TO COME AND SPEAK.
HOWEVER, THAT INDIVIDUAL, WHOEVER WHO HE OR SHE MAY BE, MAY
HAVE DONE SOMETHING TOTALLY OUT OF BOUNDS AND MAYBE THEY

WENT TO COURT AND SETTLED.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
I DON'T WANT TO CREATE A WORSE PROBLEM FOR THE TAXPAYERS IF
SOMETHING HAPPENS.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE WE
GET LEGAL ADVICE ON WHAT WE CAN ASK AND NOT ASK IF WE KNOW
THAT SOMETHING HAPPENED, THAT SOMEBODY GOT DISMISSED FOR
SOME REASON, AND THEN THEY COME HERE AND THEN I'M GOING TO
MAKE A MOTION, NO, I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT.
7:31:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I'LL SPEAK TO IT BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE,
LMR AND FEDERAL SECTOR.
AS EMPLOYEES, UNION REPRESENTATIVES WITHIN THE FEDERAL
SECTOR HAVE PROTECTION BASED ON THE LABOR LAWS.
IF THEY ARE AN OFFICIAL REPRESENTATIVE OF FOLKS, BUT
EMPLOYEES THEMSELVES, IF THEY COME AND LET'S SAY THEY WERE
LIBELOUS OR -- THERE ARE THINGS THAT YOU ARE ACCOUNTABLE FOR
WHAT YOU DO.
AND IF THEY DO SOMETHING, IF THEY UNDERMINE -- THERE ARE
DIFFERENT STANDARDS IN THE MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE OF HOW
EMPLOYEES ARE MANAGED.
LIKE, LET'S SAY THAT YOU ARE IN THE FINANCIAL SECTOR OF THE
CITY AND THEN YOU UNDERMINE, YOU COME AND YOU SAID SOMETHING
THAT WOULD UNDERMINE OUR BOND RATINGS OR SOMETHING LIKE
THAT, YOU CAN'T HAVE THAT HAPPEN WITH CITY EMPLOYEES.
THEY HAVE TO BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT TYPE OF THING.

CAN'T JUST MALICIOUSLY COME IN AND DO SOMETHING WITHOUT SOME
KIND OF ACCOUNTABILITY.
7:32:09PM >>BILL CARLSON:
MY POINT IS SIMPLY TO SAY THE MERE FACT OF
SPEAKING AT PUBLIC COMMENT.
WHAT THEY SAY AFTER THAT, THAT IS A DIFFERENT SUBJECT.
IF THEY DECIDE TO SPEAK AT PUBLIC COMMENT, THEY SHOULDN'T BE
THREATENED TO BE FIRED OR FIRED BECAUSE OF THAT.
7:32:22PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MR. SHELBY WANTED TO SAY SOMETHING.
7:32:25PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
ALSO THERE IS THE ISSUE OF REPRESENTED
EMPLOYEES, COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENTS.
AND THE OTHER THING THE QUESTION IS WHETHER SOMEBODY COMES
TO CITY COUNCIL DURING WORK HOURS, WHETHER THEY ARE IN A
UNIFORM OR NOT.
I MEAN, THERE ARE A LOT OF HR THINGS.
MY SUGGESTION WOULD BE IF YOU FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT IT,
CERTAINLY, AND I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU DO IT AS A WRITTEN
REPORT AND SEE WHAT THEIR RESPONSE IS, AND MAYBE PERHAPS IF
YOU LIKE TO MEET WITH THEM INDIVIDUALLY BUT GET A WRITTEN
REPORT AND COUNCIL CAN ASSESS WHETHER THEY WANT TO GO
FURTHER WITH THAT.
7:32:54PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COULD YOU CHANGE THAT TO A WRITTEN REPORT?
7:32:59PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I'M SUGGESTING IT.
IF YOU WANT AN IN-PERSON REPORT, THAT'S COUNCIL'S
DISCRETION.
7:33:04PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE CAN START WITH A WRITTEN REPORT.

7:33:05PM >>BILL CARLSON:
OKAY.
CHANGE TO WRITTEN REPORT.
7:33:07PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN CARLSON.
SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA FOR A WRITTEN REPORT ON
SEPTEMBER 17.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE.
OPPOSED?
THE AYES HAVE IT.
7:33:15PM >>BILL CARLSON:
LAST THING IS, I'VE LISTENED TO THE MAJORITY
OF THE CHARTER REVIEW COMMISSION MEETINGS, AND MAYBE SOME OF
YOU HAVE AS WELL.
I'VE TALKED TO MORE THAN HALF THE CHARTER REVIEW COMMISSION.
MANY OF THEM YOUR APPOINTEES.
THERE ARE CONCERNS ABOUT THE WAY THE FACILITATION IS GOING.
IT SEEMS TO ME WE HAVE THREE OR FOUR MEETINGS LEFT IT SEEMS
TO ME WE SHOULD LET THE CHAIR RUN EVERYTHING AND THAT WE
DON'T NEED A FACILITATOR.
I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE A MOTION ON THAT.
THROW THAT OUT.
WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT WHEN WE GET BACK.
7:33:47PM >>LUIS VIERA:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. CHAIRMAN.
THREE QUICK MOTIONS IF I MAY.
YESTERDAY, I HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING WITH OUR FRIENDS
OVER AT BAY AREA LEGAL SERVICES.
I WAS REMINDED ON HOW WE HAD PASSED, I THINK IT WAS TWO

YEARS AGO, A HOUSING GRANT FOR BAY AREA LEGAL SERVICES
THROUGH THE CITY OF TAMPA FOR REPRESENTATION ON
HOUSING-RELATED LEGAL CHALLENGES.
AND IN THAT PROGRAM -- AND THAT PROGRAM APPARENTLY IS STILL
GOING ON.
MOTION FOR IN-PERSON REPORT FROM CITY STAFF TO UPDATE US ON
THE STATUS OF THIS REPRESENTATION PROGRAM THROUGH BAY AREA
LEGAL SERVICES.
AND BEFORE THAT TIME, THEY SHOULD INQUIRE WITH BAY AREA
LEGAL SERVICES ON ANY CHALLENGES THAT MAY EXIST WITHIN THE
PROGRAM.
WE CAN PUT ON THE AGENDA TO LIMIT THIS TO TEN MINUTES FOR
THE ENTIRE SCOPE OF IT, INCLUDING COUNCIL QUESTIONS.
THIS SHOULDN'T BE A LONG PRESENTATION, FIVE MINUTES FROM
THEM, FIVE MINUTES FROM US.
THAT'S IT.
THAT'S MY MOTION.
SEPTEMBER 3rd.
7:34:48PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA.
SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
OPPOSED?
AYES HAVE IT.
7:34:53PM >>LUIS VIERA:
THANK YOU, COUNCIL.
THIS IS HOUSEKEEPING.

I MOTION TO REMOVE FROM JULY 16 THE IN-PERSON STAFF REPORT
ON THE MICHAEL PHILLIPS ALL ABILITIES PROGRAM.
AND ON AUGUST 6 WHERE THERE IS ROOM IN LIEU OF THE
PREVIOUSLY SCHEDULED WRITTEN STAFF REPORT, INSTEAD REQUEST
THAT STAFF COME BEFORE COUNCIL AND PROVIDE AN IN-PERSON
REPORT ON THE ALL ABILITIES PROGRAM THAT DAY.
THAT WAS A REQUEST FROM STAFF, WHICH I'M GLAD TO
ACCOMMODATE.
7:35:16PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA.
SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
OPPOSED?
AYES HAVE IT.
7:35:21PM >>LUIS VIERA:
LASTLY, I DON'T KNOW HOW COUNCIL FEELS ABOUT
THIS, YOU KNOW, WITH OUR ATU, 1593 OR 1464, WHICH ONE IS IT?
WHICHEVER IT IS.
WITH OUR ATU PERHAPS WOULD IT BE PROPER OR APPROPRIATE FOR
AN ADMINISTRATION UPDATE TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS?
7:35:45PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I WOULDN'T GO THERE.
7:35:47PM >>LUIS VIERA:
THEN I -- JUST THROWING IT OUT THERE.
THAT'S IT.
THANK YOU, GUYS.
7:35:51PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN YOUNG.
7:35:54PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
I HAVE A MOTION -- I MOVE TO MAKE A MOTION TO
PROVIDE A COMMENDATION TO JAMMAL JEFFERSON ON AUGUST 27,

2026 FOR RECEIVING THE TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS INSPIRE CHANGE,
CHANGE MAKER AWARD FOR HIS COMMITMENT FOR GIVING BACK TO THE
YOUTH IN THE NEXT GENERATION.
7:36:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
IS THAT IN PERSON, IN COUNCIL CHAMBERS?
7:36:14PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
YES, IN COUNCIL CHAMBERS.
I DID CHECK.
7:36:18PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE HAVE ONE PRESENTATION AND ONE
COMMENDATION.
7:36:21PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
IT WON'T BE LONG.
7:36:23PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WITH OUR NEW RULES.
7:36:25PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
WITH OUR NEW RULES.
7:36:26PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
MOTION FROM COUNCILWOMAN YOUNG, SECOND
FROM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE.
OPPOSED?
AYES HAVE IT.
7:36:32PM >>NAYA YOUNG:
AND THEN I KIND OF TOUCHED ON IT ALREADY, BUT
JUST FOR CONSTITUENTS THAT WERE WANTING TO KNOW WHY WE
DIDN'T TALK ABOUT NOISE TODAY, WE MOVED THEM BECAUSE WE WANT
TO PUT EVERYTHING ON ONE SET AGENDA.
JUST ALSO WANTED TO LET THE COMMUNITY KNOW THAT I UNDERSTAND
YOUR CONCERNS OF WANTING TO GET SOMETHING RESOLVED NOW AND
YOU HAVE SOME THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THESE NOISES A LITTLE
MORE THAN OTHERS, SO THEY WANT TO SEE SOME ACTION FROM THE
COUNCIL BUT WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING WAS PUT AT

ONE TIME SO WE'RE NOT -- IF WE CAN COVER EVERYTHING AT ONE
TIME, THEN IT'S BETTER AND MORE EFFICIENT.
AND THEN I ALSO DID EXPRESS TO STAFF THAT WE DO HAVE
COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOME TIME.
YES, I'M OKAY WITH PUSHING THIS BACK, BUT UNDERSTAND THERE
ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOME TIME.
I WANTED TO LET THEM KNOW THAT -- JUST SO THEY KNOW THE
TIMELINE AND THAT PEOPLE ARE WAITING.
ALSO, BECAUSE YOU ALL ARE GOING TO SEE ME, I HAVE A COUPLE
OF THINGS.
ONE, TOBA LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE HAS THEIR, WHICH I'M A
GRADUATE OF, THEY HAVE THEIR GRADUATION ON SATURDAY.
SO I WILL BE THERE SPEAKING.
AND THEN WE'RE ALSO PRESENTING A COMMENDATION TO THEM ON THE
16th FOR CELEBRATING SEVEN CLASSES.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS VERY EXCITING.
ALSO, KENTUCKY STATE UNIVERSITY ALUMNI HAD THEIR CONFERENCE
HERE.
HBCU, HISTORIC BLACK COLLEGE UNIVERSITY.
AND WHEN I WENT TO, THEY HAD A RECEPTION AND TALKING TO THE
ORGANIZERS, AND IT WAS REALLY NICE TO KNOW THAT THEY
SPECIFICALLY CHOSE TO COME TO TAMPA.
THEY WANTED TO COME TO TAMPA.
AND I KNOW THERE WAS A TIME WHEN THERE WAS A LOT OF THINGS
HAPPENING IN OUR AREA AND THERE WERE A LOT OF -- LETTERS

WERE PUT OUT FROM NATIONAL NAACP, LIKE DON'T COME TO TAMPA
BECAUSE THERE WERE A LOT OF THINGS HAPPENING IN THE AREA.
THEY SAID YOU KNOW WHAT WE KNOW THAT THAT'S HAPPENING BUT
THERE'S STILL A LOT OF, YOU KNOW, BLACK AND BROWN BUSINESSES
THAT WE WANT TO SUPPORT IN TAMPA SO WE WANT TO COME ANYWAY.
THEY SPECIFICALLY CHOSE TO COME TO TAMPA.
I JUST THOUGHT THAT WAS REALLY NICE.
PEOPLE ARE REALLY RECOGNIZING TAMPA AND WANTING TO COME
HERE.
THAT'S ALL.
7:38:52PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
VERY GOOD.
THANK YOU, COUNCILWOMAN YOUNG.
7:38:56PM >>LUIS VIERA:
I HAVE ONE THING I FORGOT.
NOT A MOTION.
DID YOU ALL GET THE E-MAIL FROM MY OFFICE ON ROY CALDWOOD
AND THAT EVENT ON THE 30th?
THIS GUY IS TURNING 104.
IF YOU SAW THE SPIKE LEE MOVIE, 92nd REGIMEN, THIS GUY IS
TURNING 104 DECORATED WORLD WAR II VETERAN.
BRONZE STAR IN ITALY.
ORIGINALLY FROM HARLEM.
104 YEARS AND HONORING HIM THERE FOR THE 4th OF JULY.
HE IS AN AWESOME GUY.
COME ON DOWN TO THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF NEW TAMPA.
7:39:34PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I'M NEVER GOING TO MAKE IT TO 104.

COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
7:39:39PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
ABSOLUTELY HOPE NOT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
BLESS HIM.
I THINK IT'S WONDERFUL, BUT THAT IS NOT SOMETHING I WANT FOR
MYSELF.
FIRST OF ALL, I WANT TO SAY -- I SENT THIS OUT TO NEWS FOR
NEIGHBORHOODS, THE NEWSLETTER THAT I SEND OUT.
BUT I WANTED TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE KNOW THAT WATERING
RESTRICTIONS ARE STILL AROUND.
THERE IS A WAY THAT YOU CAN CONTACT THE WATER DEPARTMENT IF
YOU SEE PEOPLE WATERING AT NOON, BECAUSE I WANTED TO KNOW.
IT'S CRAZY.
DO NOT WATER AFTER 6 A.M.
4 A.M.
SORRY, THE NEW RULES, ARE YOU CANNOT WATER AFTER 4 A.M. AND
YOU CANNOT WATER UNTIL 8 P.M.
SO MAKE SURE YOU'RE WATERING ON YOUR DAY.
IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR DAY IS GO TO THE WATER WEBSITE,
AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIND THAT.
PLEASE, WE HAVEN'T HAD TO BUY ANY WATER YET, BUT WE'RE VERY
CLOSE TO IT.
THAT MEANS YOUR WATER BILLS WILL HAVE TO GO UP.
MY MOTION TODAY IS -- I WORKED WITH STAFF ON THIS.
THIS IS A SOCIAL ACTION ART FUND MOTION.

I HAVE A MOTION REQUESTING STAFF IN COORDINATION WITH THE
CITY COUNCIL BUDGET ANALYST TO MEET INDIVIDUALLY WITH EACH
COUNCIL MEMBER TO DISCUSS POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS TO SOCIAL
ACTION IN ARTS FUND PROGRAM TO INCLUDE HOW TO ALIGN THE
FUNDING WITH CITY OF TAMPA GOALS OR IDENTIFY AREAS OF NEED,
HOW TO FOCUS ON COMMUNITY OUTCOMES AND MEASURABLE GOALS, AND
LASTLY, TO INCLUDE A PROGRAM THAT TEACHES HOW TO SEEK
OUTSIDE GRANTS AND TRANSITION FROM THE SOCIAL ACTION ART
FUND TO OTHER FUNDING SOURCES.
FURTHER, I REQUEST STAFF TO COMPILE THE FEEDBACK AND RETURN
TO CITY COUNCIL ON AUGUST 6, 2026, UNDER STAFF REPORTS WITH
A SUMMARY AND PRELIMINARY LIST OF THREE TO FIVE
ADMINISTRATIVE AREAS, IDENTIFIED AREAS OF NEED, UNMET GOALS,
OR IMPACT AREAS.
SO THE REASON I DID THIS MOTION IS BECAUSE I MET WITH
JANELLE AND WE ARE STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO.
ONE OF THE IDEAS WAS IF WE HAVE -- WE'RE JUST GOING TO HOPE
THAT WE CAN FIND $1.5 MILLION THIS YEAR.
IF WE DO THAT, IF WE CHOOSE AN AREA THAT THE ADMINISTRATION
SAYS IS AN AREA OF NEED, UNMET GOALS, AND IMPACT, SAY TEEN
EVENTS, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE HAVE THE WHOLE TEEN TAKE-OVER
THING GOING ON.
BUT WE'VE DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB WITH PROVIDING ACTIVITIES.
MAYBE THAT'S OUR FOCUS.
SO THE HALF MILLION DOLLARS GOES TOWARD THAT, AND THEN THE

TWO-THIRDS LEFT OVER GOES TOWARD OTHER AREAS RIGHT NOW, AND
THEN NEXT YEAR, IT'S THAT 500,000 TO TEENS AND 500,000 TO
SOMETHING NEW.
AND THEN SLOWLY OVER TIME, THOSE TEENS -- THOSE TEEN
ORGANIZATIONS WOULD HAVE THREE YEARS OF FUNDING, BUT DURING
THAT TIME GET GRANT HELP TO LEARN HOW TO SEEK OUTSIDE
FUNDING SOURCES SO THAT BY THE TIME THEIR THREE YEARS IS UP,
THEY CAN MOVE ON AND FIND WHAT THEY NEED.
7:42:54PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
A SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE.
OPPOSED?
AYES HAVE IT.
NEXT.
7:43:00PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
THAT'S IT.
7:43:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.
7:43:03PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
YES, I WOULD LIKE TO WISH MY WIFE A
HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
IT'S TOMORROW.
AS YOU KNOW, SHE IS THE PERFECT WOMAN, AND I JUST WANTED TO
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AND WISH HER A HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY.
THAT'S IT.
THANK YOU.
7:43:17PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
7:43:18PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
SIR, I'LL TALK ABOUT WATER LIKE

MS. HURTAK DID, LYNN HURTAK.
WE INCREASED OUR WATER DEMAND FROM 80.3 MILLION GALLONS A
DAY TO 82.8 MILLION GALLONS A DAY OR TWO AND A HALF MILLION
GALLONS A DAY MORE.
WE CANNOT SUSTAIN THAT BECAUSE WE HAVE NO WATER RAINING ON A
CONSTANT BASIS EVERY DAY.
AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A PROBLEM IF WE CONTINUE USING MORE
WATER THAN WE HAVE EVERY DAY IN THE LAST FOUR OR FIVE WEEKS.
IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE TO LEARN TO LIVE WITH.
I KNOW IT'S DIFFICULT, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE AN HOUR
SHOWER.
TEN MINUTES WOULD BE ENOUGH.
IF YOU USE SOAP.
7:43:58PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.
7:44:01PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
THAT'S IT, SIR.
7:44:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
7:44:04PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
YES, CHAIR CLENDENIN.
7:44:05PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
FIRST, I BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE SOMEONE, A
BIRTHDAY COMING UP.
WHEN IS YOUR BIRTHDAY, COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
7:44:12PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
JULY 1st.
CENTER OF THE YEAR.
7:44:16PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WE'LL BE ON BREAK, SO I WILL SAY, HAPPY
BIRTHDAY TO YOU.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.
HOPE YOU DON'T LIVE TO BE 104.
7:44:34PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
ME EITHER.
[ LAUGHTER ]
THAT IS A GREAT WISH.
7:44:38PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
106 WOULD BE ALL RIGHT.
7:44:40PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
EXACTLY.
I HAVE ONE MOTION.
E-MAIL FROM EMILY AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION, MOTION TO
REQUEST THE PLANNING COMMISSION TO SET ADOPTION HEARING FOR
TA/CPA 26-03 ON SEPTEMBER 24, 2026 AT 5:01 P.M. AND DIRECT
THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT TO PROVIDE THE CITY CLERK WITH A FORM
OF NOTICE FOR ADVERTISING THE PUBLIC HEARING.
FYI, THIS IS THE HC PROPERTY.
7:45:02PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER -- SORRY,
CHAIR CLENDENIN.
I HAVE A SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA.
YEAH, THIS IS A TRICKY ONE.
WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS HERE.
DO I NEED TO DO A ROLL CALL VOTE FOR THIS?
7:45:27PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
WHEN DO WE HEAR BACK FROM THE STATE?
7:45:30PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THE SCHEDULES ARE FULL.
THIS IS AN AB, TRYING TO GET SOMETHING -- RESERVING A SPOT
BASICALLY.
7:45:38PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
BUT NO GUARANTEE THAT THIS IS EVEN HEARD

AT THAT TIME.
7:45:41PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
WORKING WITH EMILY, LaCHONE, EVERYBODY
ELSE.
THAT WAS THE MEETING WE HAD PRIOR TO THE MEETING THEY FELT
THIS WAS AN APPROPRIATE DATE.
7:45:49PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO:
IS THIS TYPICALLY DONE LIKE THIS BECAUSE
SO BUSY OR FULL?
7:45:54PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
EVERY ONE OF OUR CALENDAR DATES ARE FULL.
THAT'S THE ISSUE.
7:46:02PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
OKAY.
DO WE WANT TO HAVE A ROLL CALL VOTE FOR THIS?
YEAH, LET'S ROLL CALL THIS.
I'M SORRY, MOTION FROM CHAIR CLENDENIN --
7:46:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THIS IS TO SET THE HEARING.
7:46:14PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
I STILL -- SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA.
7:46:18PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
AGAIN, THIS IS JUST SETTING.
THIS IS NOT A DECISION POINT.
THIS IS JUST SETTING A HEARING.
7:46:27PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA:
I'M ONE OF THEM GUYS THAT READ FOR
WHATEVER REASON, THE NEWS AND PAPER, BUT MORE THAN THAT I
LOOK AT EVERY WANT AD IN THE PAPER FOR WHATEVER REASON SINCE
I WAS ABOUT TEN YEARS OLD AND I READ THEM ALL.
ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF AGO I WAS READING ONE REGARDING THE
WATER PERMIT THAT THEY WANT TO APPLY AT S.W.F.W.M.D. ON

MARCH OR FEBRUARY OF 25, I FORGET WHAT DATE, TOWARD THE END
OF THE MONTH, FOR APPLYING WITH S.W.F.W.M.D. TO GET
PERMISSION FOR PRECONSTRUCTION OPERATION AT THE PLANT, WHAT
WE'RE DISCUSSING NOW.
I WON'T MENTION ANY NAMES.
7:47:07PM >>LYNN HURTAK:
ANYONE ELSE?
DO WE NEED TO DO A ROLL CALL?
ANYONE CONCERNED ABOUT PUTTING THIS ON THE AGENDA?
OKAY.
SO ALL IN FAVOR?
ANY OPPOSED?
OKAY.
THERE YOU GO.
7:47:24PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
THAT'S IT.
I WANT TO WISH EVERYBODY A HAPPY VACATION.
REMIND THE PUBLIC THAT WE WILL NOT BE BACK UNTIL JULY 16,
2026.
HAPPY 250th BIRTHDAY TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
LET'S HOPE WE LIVE TO SEE 251.
MR. SHELBY.
7:47:42PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
I WAS GOING TO SAY, IN CASE NOBODY DID, I
WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT I JUST WANTED TO REMIND THE PUBLIC
THAT IF THEY SHOW UP FOR THE NEXT TWO THURSDAYS, YOU WON'T
BE HERE.
7:47:55PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
ENJOY YOUR TIME IN CITY HALL WITHOUT US.

7:47:57PM >>MARTIN SHELBY:
BY THE WAY, IT TOOK ME A WHILE, BUT I WANT
--
7:48:02PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN:
I HAVE A MOTION TO RECEIVE AND FILE FROM
COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.
