AS YOU KNOW, YOU APPROVED THE ACTION PLAN IN THE AUGUST 3rd MEETING OF 2023.

WE'RE HOPING TO REALLOCATE THE PLAN, REALLOCATE FUNDS TO DIFFERENT PROGRAMS IN THE CDBG AND HOME PROGRAMS TO SUPPORT MULTIFAMILY PRESERVATION AND NEW CONSTRUCTION AND THEN ALSO THE SAME FOR HOME FUNDS TO ALLOCATE PROGRAM INCOME AND TO ADD ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS SUCH AS NEW CONSTRUCTION AND MULTIFAMILY REHAB.

A SECOND FROM COUNCILMAN VIERA TO JUNE 27, 2024, 5:01 P.M., 315 EAST KENNEDY BOULEVARD, TAMPA, FLORIDA, 33602, THIRD FLOOR, WHICH IS THIS ROOM. ALL IN FAVOR OF THE CONTINUANCE? AYE. ANY OPPOSED? THANK YOU VERY MUCH. ITEM NUMBER 3 WE TOOK CARE OF. SO WE GO TO ITEM NUMBER 4. YES SIR. >>DANNY COLLINS: THIS IS DANNY COLLINS AGAIN WITH YOUR PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF. TODAY I WILL BE PRESENTING TA/CPA 24-07, A MAP AMENDMENT FOR THE MEMORIAL PARK CEMETERY. JUST A QUICK BACKGROUND, THIS SITE WAS ACQUIRED BY THE CITY BACK IN 2023. MORE RECENTLY I BELIEVE IT WAS EARLIER THIS YEAR IT WAS ADDED TO THE CITY CEMETERY PARK LIST, AND IT ALSO RECEIVED A LOCAL HISTORIC -- SORRY, HISTORIC DESIGNATION FOR THIS SITE. AS SUCH, THE CITY'S PLANNING STAFF IS INITIATING THIS AMENDMENT. IT IS PUBLICLY INITIATED, SMALL SCALE IN SIZE. THE SITE IS APPROXIMATELY 18.84 ACRES. THE REQUEST IS TO CHANGE THE FUTURE LAND USE FROM THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 35 AND PUBLIC/SEMI-PUBLIC DESIGNATION TO THE RECREATIONAL/OPEN SPACE CATEGORY. HERE IS AN AERIAL MAP OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES. AS YOU CAN SEE, THE SUBJECT SITE IS AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF NORTH 22nd STREET AND MLK. THERE ARE PRIMARILY NONRESIDENTIAL USES LOCATED ALONG MLK. THERE ARE RESIDENTIAL USES TO THE EAST AND SOUTH OF THE SITE. THEN WE HAVE CYRUS GREENE PARK WHICH IS A CITY PARK DIRECTLY TO THE WEST OF THE SITE. ALSO THERE IS CITY OF TAMPA POLICE STATION JUST TO THE SOUTHWEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE. THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT. IT'S WITHIN EAST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE. AND IT'S WITHIN THE COLLEGE HILL BELMONT HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD. HERE IS AN IMAGE OF THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING NORTH FROM BELMONT ESTATES AVENUE. THIS IS ANOTHER IMAGE LOOKING SOUTH OF THE SITE FROM MLK. THIS IS LOOKING WEST AT THE SUBJECT SITE FROM NORTH 22nd STREET. AND HERE IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP. AS YOU CAN SEE BY THIS BLUE COLOR, A MAJORITY OF THE SUBJECT SITE JUST OVER 15 ACRES IS RECOGNIZED UNDER THE PUBLIC/SEMI-PUBLIC DESIGNATION. THEN WE HAVE THIS RED NORTHERN STRIP ALONG THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE PROPERTY IS RECOGNIZED UNDER THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 35 CATEGORY. THAT COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 35 IS PRIMARILY FOUND ALONG THIS SEGMENT OF MLK. TO THE EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, WE HAVE PROPERTIES RECOGNIZED UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL 20, AND THEN TO THE SOUTH, WE HAVE PROPERTIES RECOGNIZED UNDER THE R-35 DESIGNATION. AND THEN CYRUS GREENE PARK DIRECTLY TO THE WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE IS RECOGNIZED UNDER THE RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE CATEGORY. HERE IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE MAP, RECOGNIZING THE SITE UNDER THE RECREATION OPEN SPACE CATEGORY. CURRENTLY ON THE SUBJECT SITE, THOUGH IT IS A CEMETERY, THE LAND USE WOULD ALLOW POTENTIALLY UP TO 105 DWELLING UNITS OR JUST OVER 263,000 SQUARE FEET OF RESIDENTIAL OR NONRESIDENTIAL USES. AS PROPOSED UNDER THE RECREATION OPEN SPACE CATEGORY, IT WOULD REMOVE ANY POTENTIAL OF RESIDENTIAL OR NONRESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT ON THE SUBJECT SITE. SO ESSENTIALLY THIS IS LIMITING THE SITE TO OPEN SPACE AND RECREATION USES ESSENTIALLY ADDING ADDITIONAL PROTECTIONS TO THE CEMETERY. THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REVIEWED THE REQUEST AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION AGREED AS WELL AND FOUND IT CONSISTENT WITH A NUMBER OF POLICIES IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, SPECIFICALLY AS CONSISTENT WITH POLICIES WITH PROMOTING RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE OPPORTUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE CITY. IT WAS CONSISTENT WITH POLICIES THAT SEEK TO PRESERVE TAMPA'S HISTORICAL RESOURCES. AGAIN, THIS SITE RECEIVED HISTORICAL DESIGNATION EARLIE THIS YEAR. THEN FINALLY, THE REQUEST WAS CONSISTENT WITH PROTECTING CITY-OWNED CEMETERIES. THE RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE CATEGORY IS THE MOST APPROPRIATE LAND USE CATEGORY FOR CITY-OWNED CEMETERIES IN THE CITY AS ADOPTED BY THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. BASED ON THOSE CONSIDERATIONS, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THAT THE PROPOSED MAP AMENDMENT BE FOUND CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION. HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. WE HAVE A FEW FOLKS FROM THE CITY STAFF TO ANSWER QUESTIONS, TOO. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THIS IS JUST TO PROTECT THE CEMETERY FROM ANY FUTURE DEVELOPMENT. >>DANNY COLLINS: YES. IT'S REMOVING ANY -- >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THERE'S NO QUESTION. IT IS NOW OPEN SPACE AND DESIGNATED SO THERE'S NO THREAT OF ANYTHING. >>DANNY COLLINS: RIGHT. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? IS THERE ANYBODY FROM THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 4? >> MOTION TO CLOSE. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. ANY OPPOSED? COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA, WOULD YOU MIND READING ITEM NUMBER 4? >>LUIS VIERA: I MOVE AN ORDINANCE BEING PRESENTED FOR FIRST READING CONSIDERATION, AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT, FUTURE LAND USE MAP FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2425 EAST DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. BOULEVARD, AKA MEMORIAL PARK CEMETERY FROM PUBLIC/SEMI-PUBLIC AND COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL-35 TO RECREATIONAL/OPEN SPACE; PROVIDING FOR REPEAL OF ALL ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A MOTION FROM COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA. SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. ANY OPPOSED? ALL RIGHTY. WE'LL GO INTO OUR PUBLIC HEARINGS THAT ARE QUASI-JUDICIAL. IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE SPEAKING ON ITEMS 6, 7, 8, OR 9, PLEASE STAND, RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND AND WE WILL SWEAR YOU IN. WE HAVE NO REGISTERED SPEAKERS, SO IT'S EVERYBODY IN THE ROOM. >>THE CLERK: DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THAT THE TESTIMONY YOU ARE ABOUT TO GIVE IS THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, SIR. GO AHEAD. 6. >>ERIC COTTON: ERIC COTTON, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION. I HAVE BEEN SWORN. HERE ON BEHALF OF LaCHONE DOCK WHO DECIDED TO TAKE THE DAY OFF. SHE ASKED BEFORE -- SHE SAID TO ME, CAN I HAVE OFF THURSDAY? SAID SURE. BY THE WAY, IT'S AN ALCOHOL NIGHT. SHE TOLD ME THAT AFTER THE FACT. THE FIRST CASE TONIGHT IS AB 2-23-30 FOR PROPERTY AT 1500 WEST CASS STREET. IT'S ZONED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. YOU CAN SEE IT SITTING ON THE PROPERTY THERE. THE APPROVAL FOR THE PD WAS FOR RETAIL SALES RESTAURANT AND BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL OFFICE. THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS FOR CONSUMPTION ON PREMISES ONLY IN A SMALL VENUE. I BELIEVE THE AGENDA HAS CONSUMPTION ON AND OFF PREMISES BUT ONLY FOR CONSUMPTION ON PREMISES. TOTAL REQUEST 5,623 SQUARE FEET OF ALCOHOL SALES. THIS IS THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION. THEY ARE PROPOSING TO -- THIS IS THE ENTIRE SITE OUTLINED IN RED. THE MAJORITY OF THE PROPERTY, 4,093 SQUARE FEET, WHICH THE BUILDING PROPOSED FOR INDOOR SEATING, AND THIS IS THE PROPOSED OUTDOOR SEATING. THE APPLICANT IS SEEKING WAIVER FROM 31 SPACES TO 8 PARKING SPACES. THE PD ZONING ACTUALLY WAIVED IT FROM 31 DOWN TO 10. THEY ARE ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL TWO PARKING SPACES TO BE WAIVED FOR THE SPECIAL USE FOR THE ALCOHOL. PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN THE MIXED USE CORRIDOR. WEST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE AND THE WEST TAMPA OVERLAY DISTRICT. STAFF FOUND THE REQUEST INCONSISTENT. THERE'S ONLY ONE WAIVER WHICH IS THE REDUCTION IN THE TWO ADDITIONAL PARKING SPACES AND THERE ARE SOME CORRECTIONS THAT NEED TO BE MADE TO THE SITE PLAN THAT ARE ON PAGE 3 OF THE STAFF REPORT. I DON'T KNOW IF COUNCIL WANTS ME TO READ THOSE INTO THE RECORD. THE APPLICANT IS AWARE OF THE REQUEST FOR THE ADDITIONAL CHANGES TO BE MADE TO THE STAFF REPORT. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MR. SHELBY. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THE CLERK HAS REMINDED ME THAT WE DID NOT HAVE A MOTION TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARINGS. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MAY I HAVE A MOTION TO OPEN ALL THE PUBLIC HEARINGS? MOTION FROM COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, SECOND FROM COUNCILWOMAN HENDERSON. >>MARTIN SHELBY: AS THEY SAY IN THE LAW, WE'RE DOING THIS LOW -- >>ERIC COTTON: IT IS AN EXISTING BUILDING, ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF CASS. THIS IS THE BACK OF THE BUILDING, JUST SOME ADDITIONAL PHOTOS. THIS IS THE PROPERTY LOOKING WEST DOWN CASS. THIS IS WHAT IS ACROSS THE STREET. ON THE NORTH SIDE LOOKS LIKE AN OLD WAREHOUSE. EAST DOWN CASS YOU START GOING INTO THE RESIDENTIAL AND RESIDENTIAL OFFICE DEVELOPMENTS. COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I CAN TRY TO ANSWER FOR YOU? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS FOR MR. COTTON AT THIS TIME? NO. ALL RIGHT. >>ERIC COTTON: THANK YOU. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YES MA'AM. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL. FOR THE RECORD, JULIA MANDELL WITH THE LAW FIRM OF GRAY ROBINSON, 101 EAST KENNEDY BOULEVARD, SUITE 4,000, TAMPA, FLORIDA. I'LL PASS OUT SOME DOCUMENTS. PowerPoint DONE IN TIME.E- I'M DOING THIS OLD SCHOOL. AGAIN, MY NAME IS JULIA MANDELL HERE ON BEHALF OF THE OWNERS OF NOHO JUNCTION WHICH IS AN EXISTING FOOD HALL AT THE LOCATION AS DESCRIBED BY STAFF. IT'S -- I'M GOING TO BUTCH THEY ARE AND APOLOGIZE AND HER HUSBAND RANDALL KNOWLES. BY WAY OF BACKGROUND, THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE AREA FOR A LONG TIME AND THEY HAVE BEEN THE OWNER OPERATORS OF THE ROYAL PALACE THAI FOR THE LAST 25 YEARS AND HAVE WORKED TO OPEN THIS RESTAURANT OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS AND ARE SEEKING, AS STAFF DESCRIBED, TO ADD BEER, WINE, AND LIQUOR SO THAT THEY CAN ADD CRAFT COCKTAILS BEER AND WINE TO THEIR ALREADY ESTABLISHED FOOD HALL WHICH CURRENTLY HAS A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT FOOD OPTIONS SUCH AS ASIAN FUSION, BURGERS PIZZA BARBEQUE ICE CREAM, AND WAFFLES. I'LL GO THROUGH MY PRESENTATION VERY QUICKLY. VERY OLD-SCHOOL. STAFF HAD ALREADY SHOWN SOME OF THE SITE PHOTOS, BUT AS I SAID, THIS IS AN EXISTING USE. THEY HAVE BEEN OPEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND HAVE BEEN OPERATING THEIR FOOD HALL IN THIS LOCATION. THE SITE PLAN FOR THIS LOCATION WAS APPROVED IN 2014. I THINK IN TERMS OF THE MOST MEANINGFUL ASPECT OF THAT APPROVAL WAS IT DID WAIVE THE PARKING FROM 31 SPACES TO 10 SPACES AS PART OF THAT APPROVAL IN 2014. I BELIEVE STAFF SHOWED THIS. THIS IS THE EXISTING SITE -- THIS IS THE PROPOSED AB SITE PLAN WHICH SHOWS THE INDOOR AREA OF THE ONE-STORY BUILDING AND THEN A PROPOSED OUTDOOR AREA FOR WHICH THEY WOULD HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY WHICH THEY WOULD NEED TO BUILD. THEY DON'T HAVE THAT RIGHT NOW BUT ALLOW THEM TO GO AHEAD AND HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE OUTDOOR SEATING AS WELL AS THE INDOOR SEATING AREA. THIS APPLICATION, AS I SAID, IS AN EXISTING USE. IT'S OPERATING RIGHT NOW. THEY SERVE FOOD AND HAVE BEEN SERVING FOOD FOR QUITE SOME TIME. THE REQUEST IS FOR A SMALL VENUE APPLICATION, ALCOHOL BEVERAGE FOR WHAT IS REALLY A RESTAURANT USE. THE AB CLASSIFICATION THEY ARE LOOKING FOR IS BEER, WINE AND LIQUOR WITH CONSUMPTION ON PREMISES ONLY. I DID MAKE SURE WITH STAFF THAT WE WERE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE ON THAT. I BELIEVE THAT HAS BEEN CORRECTED IN TERMS OF THE ORDINANCE. THERE'S REALLY ONLY ONE WAIVER THEY ARE ASKING FOR AND THAT IS GOING DOWN FROM TEN SPACES TO EIGHT SPACES. BUT I WILL NOTE AND I THINK THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, THAT THIS PARTICULAR AREA AND YOU CAN ALSO SEE IT IN THE PICTURES, IS ON CASS STREET. IT HAS THE GREEN SPINE RUNNING DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF IT. I WENT OUT THERE AND COUNTED. BETWEEN ROME AND WILLOW DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE SITE THERE'S APPROXIMATELY 30 ON STREET PARKING. THAT IS IN THE FRONT. ON THE SIDE STREETS ALREADY A LOT OF PLACED IN ON STREET PARKING. IF ANY OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE AREA, IT HAS A LOT OF MULTIFAMILYUSES, BUSINESSES AND OFFICES. IT REALLY IS PART OF OUR URBAN CORE. I HAVE A COUPLE OF EXTRA PICTURES THAT I TOOK. YOU CAN SEE THE GREEN SPINE THAT RUNS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE RESTAURANT, THE ON-STREET PARKING AND IT GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN. I WAS THERE DURING THE DAY AND IT WASN'T PARTICULARLY FILLED. I'M SURE AT NIGHT IT MIGHT GET A LITTLE BIT MORE FILLED. THERE'S ALREADY OPPORTUNITIES TO HAVE THIS BE A WALKABLE AREA. SO THIS REALLY IS AN AREA THAT WOULD CALL FOR AN ADDITIONAL PARKING WAIVER OF THE TWO SPOTS. AS I SAID, WE HAVE APPLICANTS WHO HAVE BEEN IN THE AREA FOR A LONG TIME. THEY HAVE RUN RESTAURANTS. THEY HAVE BEEN GOOD COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND HAVE REALLY ADDED TO OUR COMMUNITY FABRIC AND WOULD ASK FOR YOUR APPROVAL. I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: MS. MANDELL, GOOD TO SEE YOU. THE OUTDOOR AREA CONCERNED ABOUT AMPLIFIED MUSIC. WE HAVE A NOTE ON THE SITE PLAN ABOUT RESTRICTIONS ABOUT AMPLIFIED SOUND IN THE OUTSIDE AREA. >> WE DID NOT PUT A SPECIFIC NOTE AS IT RELATES TO THAT. CERTAINLY IF THAT IS THE DESIRE OF COUNCIL, THERE'S NO INTENT TO HAVE THAT AS AN AREA FOR MUSIC. IT'S REALLY AN AREA FOR ADDITIONAL SEATING, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS NICE OUTSIDE. IF THAT IS THE DESIRE OF COUNCIL, I CAN DOUBLE CHECK WITH MY CLIENTS BUT I DON'T THINK THEY WOULD HAVE A PROBLEM FOR THAT. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: FOR ME IT WOULD BE A CONCERN, ESPECIALLY ADDING TOWARDS THE END AND KNOWING WE HAVE HOUSING AND GOD KNOWS WHAT WILL COME NEXT AROUND IT BECAUSE IT IS A FAST-GROWING AREA. THE PARKING ISSUE IS NOT AS BIG OF A CONCERN BECAUSE I AGREE IT IS A WALKING AREA AND TURNING INTO AN URBAN CORE KIND OF AREA. I WOULD BE CONCERNED. I DON'T WANT TO IMPEDE THE NEIGHBORS WITH OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND. >> I'M WILLING AND PREPARED TO HAVE THAT CONVERSATION WITH MY CLIENTS. I HAD TALKED TO THEM AND THEY HAVE NO DESIRE TO HAVE OUTDOOR MUSIC IN THIS ESTABLISHMENT AT ALL. I DON'T THINK THAT WOULD BE AN ISSUE. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE? MR. SHELBY. >>MARTIN SHELBY: MS. MANDELL, THAT WOULD BE PART OF THE MOTION BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO YOUR CLIENTS, ASSERTION TO HAVE THAT AS PART OF THE MOTION. >> CERTAINLY, AS LONG AS I HAVE CONSENT OF MY CLIENTS, I WOULD ABSOLUTELY REQUEST A CONDITION ADDED. >>MARTIN SHELBY: MAYBE YOU'LL HAVE IT BY REBUTTAL. >> YES I'LL HAVE IT IN TWO SECONDS. >>LYNN HURTAK: I WANT TO CLARIFY -- >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NO AMPLIFIED MUSIC. >>LYNN HURTAK: LIKE PERIOD, NONE. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: IT IS SUCH A NARROW, SMALL AREA. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? THIS IS ITEM NUMBER 6. THERE IS NOBODY. I'LL GIVE MS. MANDELL A MOMENT TO CONFER WITH HER CLIENTS. >> I HAVE CONFERRED WITH MY CLIENT AND THEY ABSOLUTELY DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ADDING THAT AS A CONDITION AND WE'LL ADD THAT BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA.

FROM OTHER ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES FROM 250 TO 160 FEET. REDUCTION OF THE REQUIRED NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES FROM 87 TO 45. AND TO ALLOW MORE THAN 50% OF THE DRIVE AISLES TO BE UNPAVED. THIS IS PROPOSED TO BE GRASS. OR UNPAVED AREA. AND TO ALLOW ACCESS ON A LOCAL STREET DISTANCE GREATER THAN 150 LYNN ARIER FEET. DISTANCE FROM ROME BACK TO WHERE THEIR ACCESS IS, IS 180 FEET. AGAIN, THERE ARE SOME CHANGES THAT ARE NOTED THAT NEED TO BE DONE TO THE SITE PLAN BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING AS ON PAGE 3 OF THE STAFF REPORT, THE APPLICANT IS AWARE OF THE NEEDED CHANGES. SOME PHOTOS TO SHOW. THIS IS LOOKING AT THE PROPERTY FROM NORTH A. THIS IS FROM THE LOCATION LOOKING DOWN NORTH A. THIS IS THE WALMART. WALMART NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER. THIS IS WEST OF THE SITE. AND THIS IS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF ROME. EXISTING WAREHOUSE. AGAIN, THIS IS THE SITE -- THIS IS A PORTION OF THE PROPERTY ON NORTH B STREET. AGAIN LOOKING AT THE SITE FROM NORTH B. AND THEN THIS IS THE EAST PART OF THE SITE STILL ON NORTH B BUT YOU CAN SEE THE AB SIGN, NEW LARGER YELLOW SIGN. THIS IS THE EAST END OF THE SITE. AS YOU GO EAST OF THE SITE DOWN NORTH B STREET, YOU'LL START SEEING SOME RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT. COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS THAT I CAN TRY TO ANSWER FOR YOU? >>ALAN CLENDENIN: COUNCIL HAVE QUESTIONS? COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK. >>LYNN HURTAK: NO. I'LL WAIT. >>ERIC COTTON: OKAY. THANK YOU. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: IS THERE AN APPLICANT? >>ERIC COTTON: YES. >> GOOD EVENING. COLIN RICE HERE FOR THE APPLICANT. ERIC, DO YOU WANT YOUR -- JUST LIKE MY MENTOR, MS. MANDELL, I HAVE SOME PAPER SLIDES. GOOD EVENING AGAIN. MY NAME IS COLLIN RICE WITH THE LAW FIRM, 100 WEST CASS STREET ON BEHALF OF SKIESNER AND BUSINESS PARTNER WITH US. THE KAISER FAMILY IS LOOKING TO EXPAND THEIR FIRST ENDEAVOR, IS AN DORA PIZZA ON CASS STREET NAMED AFTER THEIR FIRST CHILD. WE'RE THRILLED TO INTRODUCE YOU TO GIANCARLO NAMED AFTER THEIR SECOND CHILD. SO THE SPECIFIC REQUEST IS FOR A SMALL VENUE RESTAURANT BEER, WINE AND LIQUOR CONSUMPTION ON PREMISES, PACKAGE SALES CONSUMPTION OFF PREMISES. PROPOSED FOR EXISTING STRUCTURE BEEN THERE SINCE 1961. WE ARE JUST OFF OF EAST ROME AVENUE BETWEEN WEST NORTH A AND B STREETS. THE RESTAURANT WILL FRONT NORTH B. BUT THE SHARED PARKING AREA OFF OF NORTH A. THE SITE IS LESS THAN ONE MILE FROM DOWNTOWN, LESS THAN A THOUSAND FEET FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF TAMPA AND 500 FEET FROM KENNEDY BOULEVARD. WE'RE NOT IN ANY OVERLAY DISTRICT. ZOOMING IN ON THE OVERALL SITE, THERE ARE FOUR TENANT SPACES WITH A SHARED PARKING CONFIGURATION, WHICH I'LL SHOW YOU ON THE SITE PLAN SHORTLY. THEY INCLUDE WAREHOUSE, OFFICE AND A SPACE FORMERLY OCCUPIED AS A GYM THAT IS NOW VACANT. ALONG NORTH A THIS IS THE AREA PROPOSED FOR THE OFF-STREET PARKING. GIANCARLO'S RESTAURANT SPACE IS HERE. THE SITE IS ZONED INDUSTRIAL GENERAL WHICH IS AVAILABLE FOR THIS SPECIAL USE, INDUSTRIAL GENERAL. A PORTION OF THE PARKING AREA IS ZONED COMMERCIAL NEIGHBORHOOD APPROPRIATE FOR THIS REQUEST. IG TO THE SOUTH AND WEST. PD TO THE NORTH. RS 50 TO THE NORTHEAST. FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION IS GENERAL MIXED USE 24, CMU 24 EXISTS TO THE EAST AND SOUTH. R 20 TO THE EAST AND CMU 35 TO THE NORTH. A COUPLE OF ADDITIONAL PHOTOS, SHOWS THE VACANT INDUSTRIAL SITE THAT NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF LOVE. SO THE TOP PHOTO IS FROM NORTH B LOOKING AT WHAT WOULD BE THE FRONT OF THE GIANCARLO SPACE FACING SOUTH. LOWER PHOTO IS FACING WEST ALONG NORTH A. THIS IS THE PROPOSED PARKING AREA. NOW TO THE SITE PLAN, SO OUR SPACE IS SHADED HERE IN RED. BUILDING A IS PRIMARY FOOD HALL AND RESTAURANT. BUILDING B IS PROPOSED AS BAGEL SHOP. THE LIGHTER PINKISH RED IS THE OUTDOOR AREA. THIS WILL PRIMARILY FEATURE FAMILY FRIENDLY GATHERING SPACE, THINGS LIKE BOCCI OR GIANT JENGA. DEARTH OF FAMILY FRIENDLY SPACE IN NORTH HYDE PARK. THIS IS ONE OF THE REFRAINS WE GOT FROM THE COMMUNITY. GIANCARLO IS EXCITED TO MEET THAT NEED. PARKING AREA PROPOSED ALONG NORTH A. DIRECT ACCESS TO GIANCARLO VIA THIS INTERNAL SIDEWALK. AGAIN, SHARED PARKING AREA FOUR TENANTS. SO THE OVERALL INDOOR AREA IS 6300 SQUARE FEET. OUTDOOR 5300 FOR A TOTAL OF 11,600 SQUARE FEET. NOW TO THE CORE OF THE BUSINESS, SOME RENDERINGS OF GIANCARLO'S. AGAIN A RESTAURANT CONCEPT AIMING TO LOOK TO BE ANOTHER COMMUNITY ANCHOR FOR THIS PART OF NORTH HYDE PARK, MUCH THE WAY AS THE ONE ON CASS STREET. BELOW IS THE OUTDOOR SPACE SHOWING WHAT IS PROPOSED AS THE BAGEL SHOP HERE. MORE RENDERINGS OF THE INTERIOR OF THE BAGEL SHOP AND MORE OF THE OUTDOOR SPACE IN FRONT OF THE RESTAURANT AREA. AS MR. COTTON HAD ALLUDED, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF WAIVERS WE ARE SEEKING TONIGHT. THIS IS AN OLDER SITE. NEED TO BE CREATIVE AND FLEXIBLE. WE'RE ASKING FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND SUPPORT ON THESE WAIVERS WHICH I'LL GO INTO BRIEFLY. I'M, OF COURSE, HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ON THESE. WE RECOGNIZE THAT WE'RE CLOSE TO RESIDENTIAL. WE HAVE BROAD COMMUNITY SUPPORT WHICH I'LL GET INTO LATER. WE'RE ACTUALLY A BLOCK AWAY FROM THE URBAN VILLAGE WHICH WOULDN'T HAVE REQUIRED THE WAIVER, BUT WE ARE REQUESTING THAT. AB SALES DISTANCE SEPARATION. THE WALMART GROCERY TO THE SOUTH IS WITHIN 250 FEET OF OUR SITE. WE'LL NEED A WAIVER FROM THAT. WAIVER THREE, THE PARKING, GOING FROM 87 TO 45. IT IS A 48% PARKING WAIVER. WHILE WE DO HAVE A 30,00 SQUARE FOOT CHUNK OF LAND ALLOCATED FOR PARKING DUE TO THE DRIVE AISLE WIDTHS, BACKUP DISTANCES, REQUIRED BUFFERS, INTERNAL SIDEWALK CONNECTIVITY, WE SAT WITH THE ENGINEER FOR A GREAT DEAL OF TIME TO SEE IF WE COULD ADD ANOTHER ROW OF PARKING. FROM AN ENGINEERING PERSPECTIVE, WE CAN'T. THIS IS THE MOST WE CAN FIT ON THE SPACE ALLOWED TO US DESPITE HAVING THE 30,000 SQUARE FEET. I DO WANT TO MENTION THE OTHER USES SHARING IN THIS PARKING AREA ARE OF A COMPLEMENTARY NATURE. THEY ARE MORE NINE TO FIVE OFFICE TYPE USES AND WAREHOUSE. THE GYM FACILITY IS VACANT. THAT IS NO LONGER OCCUPIED AS A GYM SPACE. WE EARMARKED A HIGH PARKING RAIO IN THE EVENT THAT A NEW TENANT COMES IN WITH A DIFFERENT LOWER INTENSITY USE, THEIR PARKING NEEDS WOULD BE LOWER AS WELL. BUT IT IS VACANT RIGHT NOW. WE ARE A BLOCK FROM THE KENNEDY TRANSIT CORRIDOR. GREEN SPINE IS 1100 FEET AWAY. THERE'S READY ACCESS TO TRANSIT OPTIONS, AND WE ANTICIPATE A GOOD NUMBER OF THE PATRONS OF THE SITE WILL BE WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE. AS WE CAN SEE FROM THE PROLIFERATION OF THE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT HAPPENING THERE. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICY 3.1.14 ENCOURAGES SHARED PARKING FOR SIMILAR PEAK USE PERIODS. MOBILITY SECTION PROMOTES REDUCED PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR AREAS SERVED BY HIGH FREQUENCY TRANSIT AND OUR SITE QUALIFIES. NEXT WAIVER FOR THE CODE WOULD HAVE REQUIRED 50% OF THE PARKING AREA TO BE PAVED. WE'RE REQUESTING RELIEF FROM THIS. THERE ARE STORMWATER JUSTIFICATIONS THAT WOULD SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE OVERALL IMPERVIOUS AREA IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SO IT'S IMPORTANT THAT THAT RETAIN A HIGHER DEGREE OF STORMWATER FUNCTIONALITY. AGAIN, I HAVE WRITTEN JUSTIFICATION FROM OUR ENGINEER IF THAT SHOULD BE NEEDED. OUR LAST WAIVER IS ACCESS TO A LOCAL STREET. THE SOUTHERNMOST STRUCTURE WAS BUILT IN 1973. IT IS 170 FEET FROM ROME. WE CAN'T BE ANY CLOSER THAN THAT. IT IS AN EXISTING INGRESS. IT IS THE ONE WE PROPOSED CONTINUING USING. ABOUT COMMUNITY SUPPORT. THE KAISERS ARE GREAT NEIGHBORS. OPERATED SANTORA'S SINCE 2021 UP THE STREET IN CASS. THEY ARE MOVING INTO THEIR FOREVER HOME WALKING DISTANCE FROM BOTH RESTAURANTS LATER THIS YEAR. NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING MARCH 5. IT WAS WELL ATTENDED. ALL OF THE FEEDBACK WAS POSITIVE. REALLY A LOT OF ENTHUSIASM FOR THIS IN THE COMMUNITY WHICH WE'RE GRATEFUL FOR. TODAY WE'RE NOT AWARE OF ANY DIRECT OPPOSITION TO THIS PROJECT. WE HAVE EIGHT LETTERS OF SUPPORT THAT WHEN I CONCLUDE I'LL SUBMIT INTO THE RECORD AS WELL. ONE OF THE BENEFITS OF EARLY AND OFTEN COMMUNITY OUTREACH IS YOU GET SOME GOOD IDEAS. SO WE ARE PROPOSING TONIGHT THESE TWO CONDITIONS, WHICH WE FEEL DIRECTLY ADDRESSES THESE ISSUES. THE FIRST, NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND. WE'VE HEARD THAT TONIGHT. AND NO OUTDOOR GAMES AFTER 10 P.M. SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. AND 11 P.M. SUNDAY THROUGH SATURDAY AND ACTUALLY ONE OF THE RESIDENTS WANTED TO CALL THESE QUIET HOURS. WE LIKE THAT SO WE PUT IT RIGHT THERE. NEXT INITIALLY WE HAD PROPOSED CONSISTENT WITH CHAPTER 14 OPERATING HOURS, WE'LL SHORTEN THOSE TO BE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT A SPECIAL RESTAURANT WOULD BE. SO THAT WOULD BE 11 P.M. SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY, 1 A.M. THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. AGAIN, WE FEEL THIS IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE COMPATIBLE USES THAT ARE HAPPENING NEARBY. IT SAFEGUARDS THE CONCERNS THAT WE HAD ELICITED FROM NEIGHBORS AND ALSO PRESERVES THE KAISERS' ABILITY TO HAVE THIS PENCILED OUT INTO A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS OPERATION. THERE IS ALREADY A 15-FOOT BUFFER ON THE SITE PLAN BETWEEN THE PARKING AREA AND THE RESIDENCES. TO CONCLUDE, NORTH HYDE PARK NEEDS THIS. GIANCARLO'S WILL BE THE MOST FAMILY-FRIENDLY GATHERING PLACE IN NORTH HYDE PARK. TONIGHT'S APPROVAL IS CRUCIAL TO BRINGING THIS BUSINESS PLAN TO LIFE. ONE OF THE BARRIERS TO ENTRY FOR RESTAURANTS OF THIS TYPE SUCCEEDING IS A FULL BAR OFFERING. THAT CERTAINLY ISN'T A FEATURE OF THE BUSINESS BUT IT IS A CRUCIAL COMPONENT TO THE OVERALL SUCCESS. GIANCARLO IS AN EXTENSION OF THE KAISERS' COMMITMENT TO FAMILY AND COMMUNITY. WITH THAT I'LL CONCLUDE AND SUBMIT THESE GRAPHICS INTO THE RECORD ALONG WITH OUR LETTERS OF SUPPORT. HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: IF I'M CORRECT, YOU'RE ASKING FOR AB SALES IN BUILDING A WHICH WOULD BE THE PRIMARY RESTAURANT, BUILDING B, WHICH IS YOUR PROPOSED BAGEL PLACE, AND THEN THE OUTDOOR AREA, WHICH IS THE BOCCI BALL, OUTDOOR SEATING AND THE THING NOTED AS CRUSHED SHELL. IS THAT CORRECT? ALL THAT WOULD BE AB? >> CORRECT. TO CLARIFY, THE PACKAGE WOULD NOT BE FOR CONSUMPTION ON PREMISES. YOU COULDN'T BUY A BOTTLE AND WALK AROUND WITH IT. YOU ARE BUYING PREPARED DRINKS THERE. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WHICH AREAS? >> IT WOULD BE THE ENTIRE -- I'LL PULL THE SITE PLAN FOR YOU. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: YOUR REQUEST IS FOR PACKAGE SALES AND CONSUMPTION OFF-PREMISES AS WELL. >> YES. FRANKLY, IF THAT IS OF CONCERN, WE CAN OMIT THAT AS WELL. IT'S NOT A FEATURE. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: DOES IT GO -- >> WE HAVE THE INDOOR RESTAURANT SPACE AND A PORTION OF THIS IS KITCHEN. IT'S NOT ALL PATRON SPACE. THE FLOOR PLAN IS PART OF THE RECORD. I DON'T HAVE A COPY READY. FRONT FACING, SOME MAJORITY OF THIS INDOOR SPACE, THIS IS THE BAGEL SHOP. THIS IS THE OUTDOOR SPACE. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: IT'S JUST THAT L THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AB SALES. NOWHERE ELSE ON THE PROPERTY. >> CORRECT. CLARIFY, THIS IS THE EXISTING WAREHOUSE AND OFFICE. THIS IS THE VACANT GYM SPACE. THIS IS US. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THE GYM SPACE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE AB REQUEST. >> GYM SPACE IS NOT PART OF THIS AT ALL. WE'RE IDENTIFYING IT BECAUSE WE HAVE SHARED PARKING. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: UNDERSTAND. THE NOTES THAT YOU'VE AGREED WHICH, BY THE WAY, VERY PROACTIVE. I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT YOU DID THAT ON THE AGREEMENT ABOUT SOUND AND ALL, CAN YOU GO BACK TO THAT PIECE OF PAPER YOU PUT UP? THE FIRST BULLET IS NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND, COMMA, NO OUTDOOR GAMES AFTER 10 P.M. IS YOUR NO AMPLIFIED SOUND, IS THAT PERIOD AND THEN NO GAMES AFTER 10 P.M. OR IS THAT NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND AND NO OUTDOOR GAMES AFTER 10 P.M. >> IT'S ALL OF IT. QUIET HOURS AFTER 10. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: YOU'LL HAVE AMPLIFIED SOUND UP TO 10. THE LATEST YOU WOULD HAVE AMPLIFIED SOUND IS UP TO 11 P.M. THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. >> ABSOLUTE LATEST. AMPLIFIED SOUND FOR THE DEFINITION -- >>MARTIN SHELBY: CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY. IF YOU ARE QUESTIONING THAT, DOES THAT LANGUAGE NEED TO BE CLARIFIED SO SOMEONE REVIEWING IT WILL HAVE NO QUESTION? >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THAT'S WHAT I WAS SAYING. IFS WHAT YOU ADD TO A NOTE, I WOULD SUGGEST BREAKING IT INTO TWO DIFFERENT BULLET POINTS AND BEING VERY SPECIFIC. NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND, GIVE YOUR TIMES. NO OUTDOOR GAMES, GIVE TIMES. IT'S FOR CLARITY FOR PEOPLE TO TRULY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE COMMITTING TO, I THINK THAT WOULD BE IMPORTANT. >> SURE, WE CAN DO THAT. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: CLEARER THE BETTER BECAUSE SOMEBODY WILL SIT HERE AND TRY TO INTERPRET IT YEARS FROM NOW AND WONDER WHAT IN THE HECK WE DID. THAT'S ALL I HAVE. THANK YOU. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK AND THEN MIRANDA. >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU. CAN YOU PUT THE SITE PLAN BACK ON? I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY. SO YOU ORGANIZED THIS IN A WAY THAT BUILDING B AND THE VACANT GYM SPACE WILL PROVIDE THE BUFFER FOR THE SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL. >> CORRECT. WE DON'T ABUT A PROPERTY OR SIDE LOT WITH ANY RESIDENTS. THERE IS A STREET AND THERE IS A VACANT TENANT SPACE. >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU. I JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY THAT. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: SAME SPOT I WAS LOOKING AT. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> I'LL SUBMIT ALL THIS TO THE RECORD. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 8? >> MY NAME IS KELLY YONA. I AM HERE NOT ONLY FOR MY OWN HOME, REPRESENTING MY OWN HOME, BUT ALSO REPRESENTING EIGHT OTHER RESIDENTS ON NORTH B STREET WHO SIGNED A LETTER AND SUBMITTED IT TO COUNCIL. I DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING ABOUT THAT LETTER MENTIONED, BUT IT WAS DAYS AGO THAT WE SUBMITTED THE LETTER AND THERE WERE EIGHT INDIVIDUALS THAT SIGNED THAT LETTER. I DID NOT GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO THE MEETING, AND I WANT TO START THIS OUT WITH I'M VERY HESITANT TO SPEAK OUT ON CORPORATE OR BUSINESS PROGRESS, ESPECIALLY A SMALL BUSINESS LIKE SANTORA. I LOVE SANTORA. I EAT THERE ALL THE TIME. THE ONLY PIZZA I EAT IN TAMPA. AS MUCH AS I DON'T LIKE TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT PROGRESS, WHEN IT IS VERY LITERALLY IN YOUR OWN BACKYARD, I FEEL LIKE I DO NEED TO JUST EXPRESS SOME CONCERN AND MY NEIGHBORS HAVE EXPRESSED SOME CONCERN AS WELL. I KNOW A LOT OF THE PHOTOS AND UNFORTUNATELY I DON'T HAVE PHOTOS TO SHOW YOU TODAY, BUT A LOT OF THE PHOTOS SHOWN DON'T REALLY SHOW THE RESIDENTS THAT ARE RIGHT NEXT TO THIS NEW BUSINESS THAT I KNOW THEY SAID A LOT ABOUT BEING FAMILY FRIENDLY. BUT BEING OPEN UNTIL 1 A.M. WITH A FULL LIQUOR LICENSE INDOOR AND OUTDOOR I WOULDN'T NECESSARILY SAY THAT IS THE MOST FAMILY FRIENDLY FOCUS. IN FACT, I JUST LOOKED UP ARMATURE WORKS. THE ACTUAL BUILDING ITSELF THEIR HOURS ARE 10 P.M. WHICH I WOULD SAY IS MORE GOING ALONG WITH A FAMILY FRIENDLY SCENARIO. MY NEIGHBORS DID SUBMIT A LETTER INDICATING THAT WE WERE REQUESTING THE HOURS OF OPERATION BE UNTIL 11 P.M. ON SATURDAYS AND SUNDAY -- SORRY, SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY AND MIDNIGHT ON SATURDAY. MY NEIGHBORS DID ALSO SAY THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT ANY OUTDOOR GAMES OF ANY KIND JUST BASED OFF THE NOISE. I UNDERSTAND, I DON'T THINK ANY OF US WERE AWARE THAT THEY HAD AGREED TO NO OUTDOOR GAMES AFTER 10 P.M. I DO HAVE SOME CONCERN WITH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THAT, THAT THEY ARE GOING TO EVERY SINGLE NIGHT REMOVE GAMES AT 10 P.M. IT'S ACTUALLY IN PRACTICE GOING TO HAPPEN OR IN PRACTICE NOT TO HAVE AMPLIFIED SOUND. AND JUST FOR MY OWN HOME, BIGGEST ISSUE FOR ME IS THE PARKING LOT IS GOING TO DIRECTLY ABUT MY HOME. I DON'T THINK THAT WAS PUT BEFORE YOU AT ALL TONIGHT. I DO HAVE JUST SOME CONCERN THAT A PARKING LOT THAT'S GOING TO BE SERVICING CUSTOMERS WITH A FULL LIQUOR LICENSE ARE GOING TO BE PARKING DIRECTLY BEHIND MY HOME. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK? >>ALAN CLENDENIN: CAN WE ASK STAFF TO CLARIFY -- STAFF, COULD YOU CLARIFY WHAT THE IMPLICATIONS ARE IF THE CONDITION OF GRANTING THIS LICENSE WAS THAT THESE GAMES WERE DONE AT A CERTAIN HOUR AND IF THEY WERE IN VIOLATION OF THAT, WHAT THE IMPLICATIONS OF THAT WOULD BE? >>ERIC COTTON: UNDER THE ALCOHOL ENFORCEMENT MECHANISM, IF THEY WERE IN VIOLATION OF THEIR SITE PLAN, WE COULD BRING FORTH A NOTICE OF INTENT TO SUSPEND. THAT WOULD BE THE OPTION. THAT IS A HARD THING TO ENFORCE, WHICH WOULD BE NO GAMES IF THEY JUST STOPPED, DEPENDING IF THEY HAVE CORN HOLE, PICK UP THE CORN HOLE, GIANT JENGA, I GUESS THEY CAN PUT IT AWAY. IT IS A HARD THING TO ENFORCE ON THE CITY'S SIDE BECAUSE YOU WOULD HAVE TO CALL TPD. TPD WOULD HAVE TO RESPOND. IT WOULD BE A HARD THING TO ENFORCE. I'LL LEAVE IT AT THAT. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE? SIR, IF YOU HAVE REBUTTAL. I HAD A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS. THE INDIVIDUAL THAT SPOKE THAT HAS A HOUSE THAT ABUTS RIGHT THERE AND ALSO IN REGARDS TO THE LETTER SIGNED BY MULTIPLE LETTERS, I BELIEVE SHE MENTIONED FRIDAY AND SATURDAY OPERATION -- OPERATIONAL HOURS UNTIL MIDNIGHT AND THEN IT WAS SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY UNTIL 11 P.M. CAN YOU CLARIFY AGAIN, YOU WANTED TO STAY OPEN UNTIL 1 A.M. ON THE WEEKENDS, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY? >> THAT IS WHAT WE PROPOSED IN THOSE CONDITIONS. I WILL STATE FOR THE RECORD BEFORE COUNCIL WE ARE COMFORTABLE WITH THE HOURS THAT SHE HAD PRESENTED. SHIFTING THOSE BACK TO 11 AND MIDNIGHT. CLARIFICATION BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING, YOU WOULD PUT ON THE SITE PLAN SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY CEASE OPERATIONS AT 11 AND FRIDAY AND SATURDAY MIDNIGHT, IS THAT CORRECT? >> YES. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THE GAMES WOULD END AT 10 P.M., IS THAT CORRECT? >> YES. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THIS IS HOURS OF OPERATION FOR THE BUSINESS IN GENERAL. GAMES STOP AT 10 P.M., CORRECT? >> YES. ARE YOU OKAY WITH GAMES 10 P.M. ALL WEEK? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YOU HAVE TO COME -- IF YOU'RE GOING TO SPEAK, YOU HAVE TO COME UP. WE NEED YOU AT THE MICROPHONE. PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. >> TRAVIS KAISER. 1329 WEST CASS STREET. IT'S NOT THE WAY WE'RE PLANNING ON MAKING MONEY WITH THE GAMES. IT'S A SUPPLEMENT TO KEEP PEOPLE HAVING FUN AND ENJOYING THEIR TIME THERE. I DO UNDERSTAND THE CONCERNS AND WE'RE WILLING TO SHUT IT DOWN. IT'S AS EASY AS TAKING BOCCI BALLS AWAY TO STOP THE GAMES. IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT AND WE HAVE NO PROBLEM COMPLYING WITH THAT. WE JUST WANT TO OPEN UP A COOL RESTAURANT IN A COOL PART OF TOWN. WE GAVE EVERYBODY AN OPPORTUNITY TO COME AND TALK TO US AND WE DID ACKNOWLEDGE THOSE LETTERS AND THE QUIET HOURS IS DIRECTLY FROM THAT LETTER. SO WE'RE TRYING TO DO THINGS TO MAKE EVERYBODY HAPPY, BUT WE ALSO HAVE TO MAKE MONEY TOO. WE'RE KIND OF ON THE FENCE WHERE WE'RE TRYING TO DO -- YOU KNOW, THE BOCCI IS NOT OUR BUSINESS MODEL. IT'S JUST A WAY FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE FUN AND A PLACE TO GATHER AND HANG OUT. THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT DOES THAT. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: CAN YOU PUT YOUR PROPOSED HOURS BACK UP AGAIN? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE WANT YOU TO SUCCEED, BUT WE ALSO WANT TO BE RESPECTFUL OF THE NEIGHBORS. SHE MAKES A GREAT POINT. THE HOUSES ARE RIGHT THERE AND THEY WILL BE RIGHT NEXT TO THE PARKING LOT. I GET IT. >>MARTIN SHELBY: RATHER THAN A SIDEBAR, IF YOU CAN SAY IT, PLEASE, COUNCIL MEMBERS, FOR THE RECORD AND MAKE THE CHANGES ON THE RECORD AGAIN WHILE YOU HAVE IT THERE. IF YOU HAVE A PEN, MAYBE EVEN MAKE THAT A CHANGE. >> I'LL TRY TO DO IT HERE SO WE CAN ALL SEE. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, MA'AM. >>LYNN HURTAK: I'M JUST -- SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT THE HOURS OF OPERATION TO BE LIMITED TO 11 FROM SUNDAY TO WEDNESDAY AND 12 THURSDAY TO SATURDAY. >> YES. COLIN RICE AGAIN FOR THE RECORD. WE'RE WILLING TO SHIFT THIS 1 A.M. FIGURE TO BE MIDNIGHT. >>LYNN HURTAK: JUST WRITE IT, IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND. AND THEN WHEN IT COMES TO THE PARKING, IS THERE CURRENTLY A FENCE BETWEEN THE PARKING AND THE NEIGHBORS? IF SO, WHAT IS THE HEIGHT OF THE FENCE? >> I DON'T KNOW THE HEIGHT, BUT BEHIND EVERY ONE OF THOSE@RESIDE FENCES. >>LYNN HURTAK: YOU'RE WELCOME TO COME UP AFTER A -- >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WAIT, WAIT. >>LYNN HURTAK: SORRY. SO MY QUESTION -- SIX FOOT PLASTIC FENCE THIS SIDE BUT NOTHING THERE. WHEN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD HAS DONE THIS IN THE PAST WITH THIS CONNECTOR, WE HAVE ASKED FOR A HIGHER FENCE, IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT MIGHT BE -- FOR STAFF. IF THAT IS A CONDITION OR IF THE APPLICANTS ARE INTERESTED IN THAT TO HELP BUFFER. >>ERIC COTTON: ERIC COTTON, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION. THE REQUIRED BUFFER BETWEEN THE TWO USES, GROUP USE A, WHICH IS RESIDENTIAL, GROUP C WHICH IS COMMERCIAL, 15-FOOT BUFFER. THE FENCE HEIGHT IS 6 FEET. MAXIMUM THEY CAN GO IS 8. MOVE THE PROCESS ALONG, 8-FOOT WOULD BE REQUIRED BY CODE. TALLER THAN THAT WOULD REQUIRE DESIGN EXCEPTION. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THINKING SOMEWHAT OF A BUFFER. >>LYNN HURTAK: I'M NOT QUITE DONE. THE OTHER THING IS, COULD WE -- RIGHT NOW IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THERE IS A LANDSCAPE BUFFER. COULD WE ADD A LANDSCAPE BUFFER? OR IS THAT PART OF AN ALLEY. THIS IS THE PART THAT IS A LITTLE CONFUSING ON THE SITE PLAN, SO IF YOU COULD SPEAK TO THAT, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. >> COLIN RICE HERE AGAIN. I MIGHT ASK MR. COTTON TO JOIN ME SO I DON'T STEP OUT OF TURN. MY UNDERSTANDING IS BECAUSE WE HAVE A USE GROUP A AND USE GROUP C, THERE IS THE 15-FOOT BUFFER REQUIRED AND THE BUFFERING WITHIN THE CODE HAS CERTAIN VEGETATIVE REQUIREMENTS, CORRECT? >>ERIC COTTON: THAT'S TURF. THERE ARE VEGETATIVE REQUIREMENTS. SIX-FOOT MASONRY WALL BUT, GENERALLY SPEAKING, IF PEOPLE REQUEST, PEOPLE DON'T WANT WALLS AND PREFER PVC FENCES BECAUSE THEY ARE EASIER TO MAINTAIN AND CLEAN. I DON'T KNOW IF ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING WOULD ASSIST IN SATISFYING THE CONCERNS OF THE NEIGHBOR. I DON'T KNOW ONE PLANT FROM THE NEXT. HEDGES THAT WOULD GROW TALLER, EIGHT OR NINE FOOT HEDGES SOMETHING ACCEPTABLE TO ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS AND TO THE APPLICANT. >>LYNN HURTAK: IS THAT SOMETHING THE APPLICANT WOULD BE WILLING TO CONSIDER? YOU HAVE TO COME UP TO THE MIKE. >> TRAVIS KAISER. YEAH, I'M NOT TRYING TO PUT ANY BLOCKADES, ANYTHING REASONABLE THAT CAN BE DONE THAT'S NOT, YOU KNOW -- >>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY. THANK YOU. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. ANYBODY ELSE? >>LYNN HURTAK: I GUESS WE WOULD ASK -- OKAY. NEVER MIND. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANY OTHER REBUTTAL SIR? IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE THAT WISHES TO SPEAK IN PUBLIC COMMENT THAT HAS NOT SPOKEN? ANY OTHER REBUTTAL. >> COLIN RICE FOR THE RECORD. JUST SO I AM CLEAR, WE ARE NOT OPPOSED TO THE ADDITIONAL BUFFERING. I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO LANGUAGE THAT. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE MR. COTTON. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: [INAUDIBLE] >>MARTIN SHELBY: -- PUT LANGUAGE THAT'S AGREED UPON BY THE APPLICANT AT THE TIME OF FIRST READING. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THE QUESTION IS WHAT CONSTITUTES A LANDSCAPE BUFFER. THERE IS PER CODE AND THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE REQUIRED TO DO NOW BY PERMITTING, IS THAT CORRECT, MR. COTTON? THERE IS A LANDSCAPE BUFFER REQUIREMENT UNDER THE CODE BETWEEN THE USES. BUT WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR COUNCIL TO MITIGATE AN ADVERSE IMPACT IS BEYOND THE CODE WITH THE AGREEMENT OF THE APPLICANT. THAT HAS TO BE SPECIFIED SO IT CAN BE PLACED ON THE SITE PLAN. CAN'T BE NEGOTIATED AND STAFF PUTS DOWN SOMETHING BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING. YOU HAVE TO GIVE DIRECTION. THE APPLICANT HAS TO AGREE. >>LYNN HURTAK: LIGUSTRUM. >>MARTIN SHELBY: CAN YOU HELP MR. RICE WITH WHAT WOULD BE THE APPROPRIATE NOTE FOR THIS? >>ERIC COTTON: REQUIRED CODE IS 15 FEET AND SIX FOOT MASONRY WALL. IF THE ISSUE IS TO HAVE ADDITIONAL PLANTINGS, THE APPLICANT WOULD PROPOSE WHAT KIND OF PLANTINGS THEY WOULD WANT. I HEARD MR. CLENDENIN SAY PODOCARPUS, BUT THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING HE COULD COME IN WITH AN ENHANCED LANDSCAPE PLAN TO SHOW ON THE DRAWN -- >>LYNN HURTAK: WE'VE DONE THAT BEFORE, MR. SHELBY. >>MARTIN SHELBY: [INAUDIBLE] >>ALAN CLENDENIN: YES. OTHERWISE WE'RE SHOOTING IN THE WIND. >>ERIC COTTON: I DID SPEAK WITH THE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNER. I MENTIONED ABOUT THE FACT THEY COULD ASK FOR PVC FENCE, SHE WOULD OBJECT TO THAT REQUEST. SHE WOULD PREFER THE MASONRY WALL. SHE ALREADY SPOKE. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE A DESIRE TO HAVE HER SPEAK AGAIN. I KNOW THAT'S OUTSIDE OF COUNCIL'S NORMAL PROCESS. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: RIGHT NOW, THE WWAY THIS STANDS, THE BUFFER REQUIRED BY CODE, SIX FOOT MASONRY WALL IS REQUIRED. WITH US BEING SILENT, WHAT WE WOULD EXPECT HERE IS THE BUFFER WITH THE SIX FOOT MASONRY WALL. >>MARTIN SHELBY: CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY, YES UNLESS THEY COME IN FOR A DESIGN EXCEPTION. IT WOULD BE A DESIGN EXCEPTION ONE, WHICH MEANS THERE WOULDN'T BE ANY NOTICE. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WE NEED TO NOTE ON HERE WE WOULD WANT THE MASONRY WALL WITH THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER. >>ERIC COTTON: IF THAT IS SOMETHING COUNCIL WOULD WANT -- >>ALAN CLENDENIN: BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING WE REQUEST THAT THE MASONRY WALL CONSTRUCTED WITH THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER, WITH THE LANDSCAPE PLAN TO BE SUBMITTED BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING. IF THAT'S OKAY WITH THE APPLICANT. >>ERIC COTTON: THAT WOULD BE UP TO HOW THEY WANT TO APPROACH THAT. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SIR, WHAT DOES YOUR CLIENT SAY? >> I APOLOGIZE. CAN YOU REPEAT? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SIX FOOT MASONRY WALL WITH LANDSCAPE BUFFER. LANDSCAPE PLAN BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING AND THEN THE CHANGES IN HOURS AS WE'VE ALREADY DISCUSSED THAT YOU HAD WRITTEN DOWN, WOULD YOUR CLIENT BE AMENABLE TO THAT? >> MAY I HAVE ONE SECOND? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SURE. YOU HAVE THE SIDEWALK, THE RESIDENTS, THE CARS. WALMART CLOSES -- >> WE HAVE AN ANSWER. COLIN RICE AGAIN. UNDERSTANDING THAT THE DESIGN EXCEPTION IS TYPICALLY AVAILABLE IN THIS TYPE OF PROCESS, WE WILL COMMIT TO COUNCIL ON RECORD THAT, YES, THEY WILL DO THE WALL. THE MASONRY WALL WE'LL WAIVE THE OPTION OF PURSUING A DESIGN EXCEPTION. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THIS WILL BE BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING. WE'LL HAVE THE CHANGE IN HOURS AS WE DISCUSSED AND NOW ADD -- >> AS NOTED HERE, YES. JUST FOR CLARITY -- COLIN RICE AGAIN. FOR THE CONDITIONS WE HAVE PROPOSED FOR CLARITY OF THE RECORD, WE ARE AMENDING THE 1 A.M. NUMBER TO BE 12 A.M. I'LL HAND THIS INTO THE RECORD AS WELL. SECOND AGREEMENT IS WE WILL WAIVE OUR ABILITY TO PURSUE A DESIGN EXCEPTION. WE WILL BUILD -- I HATE SAYING THIS -- WE WILL BUILD THE WALL. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: NO MORE THAN I HATE YOU SAYING IT. AND THE LANDSCAPE PLAN. >> I WANT TO CLARIFY. SO THE LANDSCAPE PLAN -- FRANKLY, WE ARE PUTTING LANDSCAPING IN BECAUSE THE CODE REQUIRES IT. WE'LL DO THAT AND ALSO DO THE WALL. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THE WALL AND LANDSCAPING. >> WE'LL DO THE LANDSCAPING PER CODE. WE WILL COMMIT TO THE WALL. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA. >>MARTIN SHELBY: JUST A QUESTION BEFORE YOU VOTE TO CLOSE. WAS THE SUBJECT OF THE HEIGHT OF THE WALL DISCUSSED ON THE RECORD? >> SIX FOOT. SIX FOOT MASONRY WALL. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: IT WAS STATED. ALL IN FAVOR OF CLOSING THE PUBLIC HEARING? AYE. ANY OPPOSED? COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK. >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU. FILE AB 2-24-06, ORDINANCE BEING PRESENTED FOR FIRST READING CONSIDERATION, AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A SPECIAL USE PERMIT SU-2 FOR ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE SALES, SMALL VENUE, CONSUMPTION ON PREMISES AND PACKAGE SALES/OFF-PREMISES CONSUMPTION, AND MAKING LAWFUL THE SALE OF BEVERAGES REGARDLESS OF ALCOHOLIC CONTENT, BEER, WINE AND LIQUOR, AT OR FROM THAT CERTAIN LOT, PLOT, OR TRACT OF LAND LOCATED AT 1509, 1511, AND 1529 WEST NORTH A STREET AND 1528 WEST NORTH B STREET, AS MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED IN SECTION 2, PROVIDING THAT ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT ARE REPEALED, PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

I AM ONE OF THE OWNERS OF THE COMMODORE COMEDY CLUB WHICH, YES, YOU ARE RIGHT, HAS TAKEN THE PLACE OF WHAT USED TO BE THE OLD EIGHT BALL ON 7th AND NEBRASKA. REALLY JUST WANTED TO BE HERE FOR ANY QUESTIONS BUT ALSO TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHERE WE ARE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR BUSINESS. I'M ONE OF FIVE PARTNERS IN COMMODORE COMEDY LLC WHICH OWNS THE COMMODORE COMEDY THEATER. WE ARE TAMPA'S NEW HOME FOR IMPROV SKETCH, STANDUP AND ALTERNATIVE COMEDY. WE OPENED OFFICIALLY ON NOVEMBER 10, 2023, AFTER A PERIOD OF RENOVATION TO THE SPACE. WE'VE BEEN OPEN ONLY A SHORT TIME BUT WE'VE BEEN REALLY, REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE WAYS IN WHICH WE'VE ALREADY SEEN THE COMMUNITY COME TO SUPPORT OUR BUSINESS. SO RIGHT NOW WE HAVE COMEDY SHOWS ON FRIDAYS, SATURDAY AND SOMETIMES SUNDAY NIGHT. WE ALSO OFFER CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS AND DROP-IN CLASSES. THERE'S ONE HAPPENING AT 7:00. I DON'T THINK ANY OF US WILL MAKE IT TO THAT ONE, BUT WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE SHOWS AND THE CLASSES AND THE WAYS IN WHICH THE COMMODORE IS REALLY MEANT TO BE A THEATER THAT IS KIND OF BY, FOR, AND ABOUT TAMPA. AS FAR AS OUR REQUEST FOR AB 2 SALES, I MYSELF HAVE BEEN A PRACTITIONER OF COMEDY FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS. SPENT A LOT OF TIME WORKING HERE IN TAMPA BAY. IT HAS BEEN MY EXPERIENCE THAT THOSE WHO DO DRINK ALCOHOL TEND TO LIKE TO DO SO WHILE WATCHING A COMEDY SHOW. SO THE INTENT ON OUR PART IS REALLY TO BE ABLE TO OFFER THE OPPORTUNITY TO SELL BEER AND WINE TO OUR PATRONS WHO ARE THERE FOR COMEDY PERFORMANCES ALREADY AND REALLY DON'T WANT THEM TO HAVE TO LEAVE OUR PREMISES AND POTENTIALLY NOT COME BACK TO GO GET WHAT THEY NEED TO GET. WE WILL HAVE NONALCOHOLIC OPTIONS AS WELL. HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR SITE, ABOUT OUR BUSINESS. MOSTLY JUST WANT TO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION OF THIS APPLICATION. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK. >>LYNN HURTAK: I HAVE PROBABY THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION OF THE NIGHT. EVERYBODY ON THAT STRIP OF NEBRASKA HAS A SIGN HANGING FROM THEIR CEILING. WHAT IS YOUR SIGN GOING TO SAY? >> IT'S GOING TO SAY COMEDY. GLAD YOU ASKED. >>LYNN HURTAK: PERFECT. BAR AND YOGA AND TATTOO AND BREAD. >> WE'LL COMPLETE THE WHOLE BLOCK. >>LYNN HURTAK: LOVE IT. >> IT WILL SAY COMEDY. I'M GLAD YOU BROUGHT UP THE OTHER BUSINESSES AS WELL. WE HAVE DEVELOPED REALLY GREAT RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE BUSINESSES ON 7th AND NEBRASKA AND AS WELL HAVE GOTTEN THE SUPPORT OF THE RESIDENTS WHO LIVE UPSTAIRS FOR THIS APPLICATION AS WELL. YES, I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: AFTER THIS, MY NEW BUSINESS WILL BE I WANT A RESOLUTION THAT I AM NO LONGER REFERRED TO AS A COUNCILMAN. I WILL BE A PRACTITIONER OF COMEDY. [ LAUGHTER ] I WANT THAT TO BE MY OFFICIAL TITLE FROM NOW ON. BY THE WAY, THIS IS THE NEW COMEDY VENUE IN TAMPA RIGHT HERE. YOU'RE STANDING IN IT. OR OTHER PEOPLE WOULD SAY CLOWNS. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER MIRANDA. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: NO. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK? WE HAVE PEOPLE. YES, SIR, COME ON UP. PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL. EDDIE GELLER. I AM A PERFORMER, TEACHER, AND PATRON OF THE COMMODORE THEATER AS WELL AS A RESIDENT OF TAMPA. I'M HERE TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE COMMODORE, A PLACE THAT I AM VERY GRATEFUL THAT EXISTS WHERE WE HAVE PLENTY OF COMEDY PRACTITIONERS. I THINK IT IS A WONDERFUL ADDITION TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND TO THE TAMPA ARTS COMMUNITY. I KNOW THAT BEING ABLE TO SELL BEER AND WINE AND HELP TO GROW THEIR BUSINESS IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT FOR THE COMMODORE TO STICK AROUND FOR YEARS TO COME. I'M EXCITED TO BE A PART OF THAT. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >>LYNN HURTAK: HE HEARD THE EARLIER CONVERSATION ABOUT TAMPANIAN. HE'S HERE TO CHASTISE US. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL. FIRST OF ALL, LET ME APOLOGIZE -- >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YOUR NAME. >> MARIO NUÑEZ. ADDRESS AS WELL? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NO. >> MARIO NUÑEZ. FIRST OF ALL, LET ME SAY AT THE OUTSET, FORGIVE ME FOR MY EXTREMELY CASUAL APPEARANCE THIS EVENING. NO DISRESPECT TO CHAMBERS. I DIDN'T REALIZE WHEN I LEFT THE HOUSE THIS MORNING THAT THIS WAS THE DAY I WAS TO COME IN AND SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE COMMODORE. I WAS OUT CASUALLY ATIRED AND HERE I AM. THAT SAID, I JUST WANTED TO KIND OF CONFIRM WHAT KELLY MENTIONED. HER PARTNER JUSTIN WHO IS NOT HERE THIS EVENING. THEY ARE TAMPA CENTRIC IN THEIR FOCUS. THEY ARE ALL ABOUT CREATING A SPACE WHERE PEOPLE CAN COME TOGETHER AND EXPERIENCE LIVE COMEDY LIKE IT'S NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE. THEIR EXPRESSION OF IMPROVISATIONAL COMEDY IS DISTINCT AND DIFFERENT FROM ANYTHING YOU MIGHT BE ACCUSTOMED TO. I THINK THE APPROVAL FOR THEIR APPLICATION TO SELL BEER AND WINE WILL ONLY ENHANCE THAT EXPERIENCE FOR THE PEOPLE THAT ARE COMING OUT. I HAVE BEEN TO EVERY ONE OF THE SHOWS WHICH IS FEATURED, THE MONIKER I SALUTE AND HAPPY DAYS. THAT'S JUST A FOCUS. WHAT THEY ARE KEEPING ON TAMPA. THEY ARE COMMITTED TO MAKING THIS WORK. THEY MAY HAVE DONE THIS A LITTLE BIT BACKWARDS AS OPPOSED TO CREATING THE BUSINESS MODEL AND THEN BUYING THE VENUE. THEY ACTUALLY BOUGHT THE VENUE AND NOW THEY ARE TRYING TO SUPPORT IT AS BEST THEY CAN. I THINK THAT YOUR APPROVAL TONIGHT OF THEIR REQUEST FOR BEING ABLE TO SELL BEER AND WINE WILL EXPEDIATE THAT. AT THE SAME TIME THEY WANT TO BE HERE FOR A MINUTE. THIS IS NOT JUST A THING THAT THEY ARE A FLASH IN THE PAN OR PASSING FANCY. THEY ARE COMMITTED TO MAKING IT WORK ON THAT CORNER. IF YOU'VE BEEN ON THE CORNER ANY TIME, THERE IS A FLAN FACTORY, GREAT TIME FOR DINNER, ROCHINO, WALK AROUND THE CORNER AND BE IMMERSED IN AN EXPERIENCE THAT NONE OF US HERE TOFORE PROBABLY HAD. I ASK YOU TO LOOK KINDLY AND GENEROUSLY ON THEIR REQUEST. ALSO I'M INVITING YOU TO PERSONALLY COME OUT AND EXPERIENCE THE COMEDY FIRSTHAND. EVERY THIRD FRIDAY -- SECOND FRIDAY OF THE MONTH IS THE SHOW THAT IS TAMPA CENTRIC. THE AFOREMENTIONED SALUD AND HAPPY DAYS. IT'S WONDERFUL. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM. IF NOT, THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION. >> WE HAD NO DOUBT THAT YOU WOULD TAKE THE FULL THREE MINUTES. >> I KEPT LOOKING. I KEPT LOOKING AND KEPT STRETCHING. I CAN STRETCH. THANK YOU, GUYS. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I WAS LOOKIN- >> HE WOULD HAVE BEEN THE FIRST ONE FEATURED. I WAS THE FIRST ONE THEY CALLED -- I WAS THE FIRST ONE THEY CALLED TO KICK OFF, I CAN GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF THE GENESIS OF THE SALUD AND HAPPY DAYS. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THERE IS A MOTION TO CLOSE ON THE FLOOR. >> COME SEE THE SHOW. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANYBODY ELSE HERE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT? ANY REBUTTAL? I SECOND THAT JACK ESPINOSA COMMENT. >>ALAN CLENDENIN: MOTION TO CLOSE. >>LYNN HURTAK: SECOND. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: NO, HE PASSED AWAY. WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. COUNCILMAN MIRANDA. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU,% MR. CHAIRMAN.

AMEND THAT MOTION TO ALSO CONSIDER TRANSPORTATION FOR THE SUMMER FOR KIDS IN THAT COMMUNITY TO BE TRANSPORTED TO OTHER POOLS. >>LUIS VIERA: THAT IS A GREAT IDEA. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: SECOND TO THE AMENDMENT. >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I HAD A MEETING WITH MR. ROGERO YESTERDAY MORNING REGARDING BUDGET REQUESTS. I SPECIFICALLY ASKED THAT WE LOOK AT GETTING FUNDING FOR A NEW POOL AT SULPHUR SPRINGS NEXT TO OR NEAR THE PROPERTY. LOOKING AT THE REPORTS FROM MR. MULKEY AND PARKS AND REC IN REGARDS TO PUTTING MONEY TOWARDS REPAIRS, IT'S MORE COMPLICATED THAN JUST LET'S FACE IT. $1.6 MILLION WERE BUDGETED FOR THAT, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, IS IT $1.6 MILLION THAT IS GOING TO BE -- I WANT SOMETHING RIGHT. IF THEY CAN COME BACK AND WE TALKED ABOUT NUMBERS, WHAT A POOL WOULD COST NEAR OR NEXT TO THAT PROPERTY, MAYBE THAT IS THE BEST THING. NOTHING FANCY. NOT A MASSIVE PARK PROJECT BUT JUST A POOL. IT'S 25,000 INDIVIDUALS THAT GO TO THAT POOL EVERY YEAR. IT'S NEEDED AND IT'S VERY MUCH USED. IT'S HISTORIC. I MADE THE BUDGET REQUEST.

IT'S A DAY THAT, FRANKLY, REALLY PISSES ME OFF. JUST BEING HONEST IN TERMS OF HOW SHE WAS TREATED FROM THE AUDIENCE. I WANTED TO GO TO USF. SHE'S GRADUATED, TO GIVE HER A TAMPA CITY COUNCIL COMMENDATION FOR HAVING THE BRAVERY TO STAND UP.
