VERY SIMILAR TO THE SEMINOLE HEIGHTS FORM-BASED CODE, NOT THE NEIGHBORHOOD MIXED USE ZONING IS NOT AS DETAILED AS THAT, BUT IT DOES HAVE ITS OWN FORM BUILDING STRUCTURAL LIMITATION, GENERAL SITE LAYOUT, LOT DIMENSION, SO FORTH, IN THE DISTRICT. IN THIS PARTICULAR AREA, THERE'S SEVERAL PROJECTS AND SITES THAT HAVE A DESIGNATED LAND CATEGORY UMU-60, 100, EVEN A CDB WHICH HAS F.A.R. GREATER THAN THE 1.5, THEY HAVE 2.5 AND GREATER, AND THEN THE CBD PERIPHERY ADJACENT TO WEST RIVER ACTUALLY IS ON THE EAST SIDE OF NORTH BOULEVARD. SO VERY CLOSE TO THE PLAN CATEGORY R HIGHER DENSITY, HIGHER DENSITY, SO THE CHANGE THAT WE ARE MAKING STILL PUTS ITSELF IN A PATTERN WHICH IS SORT OF -- NOT THE SAME AS WHAT'S ADJACENT TO IT, BUT CONSISTENT WITH LESS THAN THE DENSITIES THAT ARE ADJACENT TO BE IT. PUT IT THAT WAY. IN TERMS OF PUBLIC MEETINGS, PLANNING COMMISSION HEARD THIS ON MAY 10th. THEY FOUND THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT CONSISTENT. JENNIFER MALONE IS ONLINE IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS OF HER. OF COURSE, CITY COUNCIL, WE HAD A PUBLIC HEARING ON JUNE 24th WHICH WAS CONTINUED TO TONIGHT. THIS IS A TRANSMITTAL HEARING, AND OUR MEETING WITH CITY COUNCIL, COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER SUGGESTED THAT WE MAKE AN EFFORTS TO GO OUT AND MAKE SURE THAT WE BRIEF THE WEST TAMPA COMMUNITY ADVISORY COMMITTEE, AND WE ARE ON THEIR AGENDA FOR AUGUST 24. BECAUSE THIS IS A TRANSMITTAL HEARING WE DO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITIES TO HAVE THE MEETING AND BRIEF THEM, AND THEN IF THERE ARE ANY ISSUES THAT THE COMMUNITY HAS, TO BE ABLE TO BRING THAT BACK AT THE ADOPTION HEARING. SO BASED ON THAT, WE FEEL THAT THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT WILL CORRECT THE UNINTENDED BARRIER TO PROMOTING THE DESIRED URBAN FORM FOR THE MIXED USE COMMUNITY, PLAN CATEGORY. SO WITH THAT IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS, GENTLEMEN? ALL RIGHT. MR. SHELBY, ARE WE LOOKING TO MOVE THIS? >>MARTIN SHELBY: IT'S A MOVED TRANSMITTAL -- I'M SORRY -- AT THIS POINT BECAUSE IT IS A PUBLIC HEARING TO OPEN THE FLOOR TO PUBLIC COMMENT AND THEN CLOSE THE HEARING BEFORE YOU MAKE THAT MOTION. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MOVE THE HEARING UP? >>MARTIN SHELBY: I DON'T BELIEVE IT HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY OPENED. MADAM CLERK? >>THE CLERK: NO. >>MARTIN SHELBY: IT IS A PUBLIC HEARING. TAKE A MOTION NOW, THAT WOULD BE FINE. >> MOVE -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE CAN'T MOVE TILL 6:00, MR. SHELBY. >>MARTIN SHELBY: YOU CAN OPEN UP JUST THIS ONE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: JUST ONE AT 5:00 PUBLIC HEARING. MOVE TAMPA PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE 5:00. MR. MIRANDA, AND MR. MANISCALCO SECONDS IT. ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? THE HEARING IS OPEN. DO WE HAVE ANYBODY TO SPEAK ON THIS ON THE SECOND FLOOR? >>MARTIN SHELBY: I BELIEVE THERE -- >>AILEEN ROSARIO: DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT. THERE IS NO ONE HERE TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 1. >>MARTIN SHELBY: I BELIEVE THERE IS ONE PERSON REGISTERED. >>THE CLERK: THAT'S CORRECT. JACOB KRAMER. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: CTTV, THE AUDIO IS VERY LOW FROM THE SECOND FLOOR. IT WAS THIS AFTERNOON, THIS MORNING TOO. >>ORLANDO GUDES: DO WE HAVE THE SPEAKER? >> CAN YOU HEAR ME OKAY? >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE CAN HEAR YOU. >> I THINK RANDY DID A GOOD JOB, SO I WILL KEEP THIS BRIEF. MY NAME IS JAKE CRAMER WITH STEARNS WEAVER MILLER, 401 EAST JACKSON STREET. I REPRESENT THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN TAMPA HOUSING AUTHORITY AND THE URBAN ON THEIR WEST RIVER PROJECT. YOU MIGHT RECALL WE CAME BEFORE YOU WITH A PD A FEW MONTHS AGO THAT YOU UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED FOR THE WEST RIVER DISTRICT. AND ESSENTIALLY THIS IN OUR VIEW WAS AN OUTGROWTH OF THAT EFFORTS AS WE WORKED WITH THE CITY AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION. WE LEARNED ABOUT THIS ISSUE IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. AND THE ONLY THING I WOULD ADD TO THE REMAINING PRESENTATION IS THIS ALL CAME OUT, THIS LEVEL CAME OUT OF THE WEST RIVER MASTER PLAN. WE CAN GO BACK AND LOOK AT THE MASTER PLAN. THE CITY ON ITS BEHALF AS WELL AS OTHER GOVERNMENT PARTNERS, THEY REALLY DID A LOT OF COLLABORATION AT THAT TIME, AND THIS IS WHAT THE COMMUNITY CONTEMPLATED. SO I SEE THIS AS IMPLEMENTING THAT VISION THAT THE COMMUNITY GOT BEHIND. SO WITH THAT, WE ASK FOR YOUR APPROVAL TONIGHT. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. DO WE HAVE ANYBODY ELSE, MADAM CLERK? >> THAT WAS IT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. MANISCALCO MOVED, MR. CITRO SECONDED IT. ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? THE HEARING IS NOW CLOSED. MR. MANISCALCO MOVED TO TRANSMIT. SECOND BY CITRO. ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIED. THANK YOU, FOLKS. >>RANDY GOERS: THANK YOU, COUNCIL. AND WE ARE ADJOURNED UNTIL 6:00, MR. SHELBY? >>MARTIN SHELBY: I WAS LOOKING AT THE AGENDA AND IT DOES SAY ITEM 2 IS CALLED FOR 6 EVEN THOUGH IT'S A NON-QUASI-JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BUT IT'S TIED WITH NUMBER 3. AND THAT HAS BEEN SET ON THE AGENDA FOR 6:00. MY RECOMMENDATION WILL BE TO HOLD IT TILL THAT TIME. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: HAS ANYBODY GOT ANY, TO SAVE IT TO THE END OF THE NIGHT? >>ORLANDO GUDES: I HAVE TWO. ANYBODY HAVE NEW BUSINESS, GENTLEMEN? MR. MANISCALCO? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT ANYONE FROM THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT COME BACK TO US. I'M LOOKING AT THE AGENDA -- THE CALENDAR. SEPTEMBER 2nd SEEMS TO BE PRETTY LIGHT. THAT'S A REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING UNDER STAFF REPORTS. JUST TO GIVE A REPORT ON THE STATUS OF PAVING PROJECTS WITHIN THE CITY OF TAMPA. WE HAVE TERRIBLE ROADS, SOME OF THE WORST ROADS THAT I KNOW OF. I KNOW SOME COUNTY ROADS ARE WITHIN THE CITY OF TAMPA. I REMEMBER A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO HERE AT COUNCIL WE VOTED -- IT WAS ON THE AGENDA. ARMENIA WAS ONE STREET. I KNOW THAT'S PART OF THE COUNTY. THAT DIDN'T GET PAVED, A CERTAIN SECTION THAT WAS LISTED. HABANA IS TERRIBLE. COLUMBUS DRIVE, I KNOW THEY ARE STUDYING THAT AGAIN. NOT EVERYTHING IS A CITY ROAD. BUT IF IT'S WITHIN THE CITY, IT'S WITHIN MY DISTRICT. THESE ROADS ARE TERRIBLE. YOU HAVE POTHOLES. YOU PASS THOSE POTHOLES BUT IT RAINS ALL THE TIME SO THOSE PATCHES ARE WASHINGTON, D.C. OUT AND YOU ARE LEFT WITH BIG HOLES. THERE HAVE BEEN BIG STREETS THAT I HAVE STOPPED AT THAT YOU CAN WALK OUT ONTO THE STREET AND PICK UP CHUNKS OF ASPHALT. IT'S CRACKED ALL OVER. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED TO MY OFFICE, SAY IT CAUSES DAMAGE TO THEIR WHEELS, THEIR ALIGNMENT, BLOWN-OUT TIRES. WE ARE BETTER THAN THIS. I KNOW THAT MR. ROGERO GAVE US A REPORT ABOUT THE MONEY THAT WE GET FROM THE FEDERAL LEVEL WITH REGARD TO COVID AND WHATNOT AND WHAT WE CAN SPEND IT ON. PERHAPS WE CAN LOOK AT SOME OF THE CITY ROADS AND PAVE THOSE. I KNOW THAT WITH THE PIPES PROJECT, MANY OF OUR ROADS ARE GOING TO BE TORN UP BECAUSE THE UNDERGROUND UTILITIES ARE GOING TO BE REPLACED. THE PIPES AND WHATNOT. AND THEN THEY ARE GOING TO BE PAVED. BUT IN THE MEANTIME IF WE CAN AT LEAST GET A STATUS UPDATE ON THE PAVING OF OUR TREATS STREETS. IST I HAVE DONE THE ANALYSIS. WE DON'T NEED TO DO A STUDY. THE ROADS ARE TERRIBLE AND WE ARE GETTING LOTS OF COMPLAINTS. I THINK WE CAN SPEAK TO THAT BECAUSE IT'S NOT JUST ME GET CALLS. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THAT MOTION FOR SEPTEMBER 2nd UNDER STAFF REPORTS, SOMEONE WHEREVER THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: SECOND BY MR. MIRANDA. ALL IN FAVOR? >>MARTIN SHELBY: I JUST WANT TO INQUIRE, IS THAT FOR AN APPEARANCE OR A WRITTEN REPORT? >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: A WRITTEN REPORT IS FINE. THE DATA WILL BE THERE. I MEAN, WE ARE GOING INTO THE BUDGET AND WHATNOT. I THINK THE TIMING IS RIGHT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MR. MANISCALCO. SECOND BY MR. MIRANDA. ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIED. MR. VIERA, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING, SIR? >>LUIS VIERA: DO I EVER? I'M JOKING. I MOTION FOR A COMMENDATION FOR PAT SANCHEZ, DIRECTOR FOR DIVERSITY IN INCLUSION FOR USF, THAT SAID COMMENDATION BE PRESENTED AT A DATE TO BE DETERMINED. >>ORLANDO GUDES: SECOND BY MR. CITRO. ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? >>LUIS VIERA: AND THEN -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: MOTION CARRIED. ALL RIGHT. MR. CARLSON. >>BILL CARLSON: HOPEFULLY THIS WON'T LEAD TO A DISCUSSION. I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU ALL KNOW, LAST TIME I MADE A MOTION TO SET UP A DISCUSSION ON SEPTEMBER 23rd TO TALK ABOUT HUMANITARIAN AID, AND DESPITE WHATEVER YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD OR READ, THAT IS MY INTENTION. THAT WAS THE MOTION THAT WAS APPROVED BY COUNCIL. SO MY INTENTION IS TO DISCUSS HUMANITARIAN AID ON SEPTEMBER 23rd. >>LUIS VIERA: I WOULD LIKE TO AMEND IT TO DISCUSS -- NO. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MOTION BY MR. CARLSON. ANYTHING ELSE, SIR? ALL RIGHT. MR. DINGFELDER, ANYTHING, SIR? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: CAN YOU COME BACK IN A MINUTE OR TWO? >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: ABOUT TWO WEEKS. [ LAUGHTER ] >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. CITRO IS COMING. HERE HE COMES. ANYTHING UNDER NEW BUSINESS? >>JOSEPH CITRO: IT WILL HAVE TO BE LATER ON. I'M SORRY, MR. CHAIR. >>ORLANDO GUDES: NO PROBLEM. NO PROBLEM. MR. DINGFELDER, ARE YOU STILL WAITING? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: YES, I AM GETTING SOME ELECTRONIC INPUT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE ARE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND ADJOURN TILL OUR 6:00. (CITY COUNCIL RECESS). SOUTH WILLOW AVENUE JUST SOUTH OF PLATT STREET AND SELMON EXPRESSWAY. THE REQUEST IS FROM RESIDENTIAL 10 TO RESIDENTIAL 20. IT IS ONE PARCEL. IT WAS PREVIOUSLY THREE PARCELS. PREVIOUSLY THE REQUEST WAS TO RESIDENTIAL 35. BUT TODAY APPLICANT CAME BACK WITH JUST ONE PARCEL AS OUTLINED HERE ON HORATIO AND WILL O.THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOUND THE ORIGINAL REQUEST CONSISTENT, AND THIS REQUEST WOULD ALSO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. >>MARTIN SHELBY: MR. CHAIRMAN, MAY I BE RECOGNIZED? I BELIEVE THERE'S A SUBSTITUTE ASSOCIATED WITH. THIS IS THERE ANYTHING GOING TO SPEAK MORE ABOUT THAT OR IS THAT GOING TO BE THE PETITIONER GOING TO SPEAK ABOUT IT? >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYBODY TO SPEAK ON THE SUBSTITUTE FROM STAFF? >>SUSAN JOHNSON-VELEZ: ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY. THIS SUBSTITUTE ORDINANCE? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES. >>SUSAN JOHNSON-VELEZ: YES, THERE IS A SUBSTITUTE ORDINANCE THAT REFLECTS THE SINGLE PARCEL THAT MS. MALONE DESCRIBED AND REFLECT THAT FOR ADOPTION THIS EVENING. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS, GENTLEMEN? I GUESS WE WILL HEAR FROM THE PUBLIC. >>MARTIN SHELBY: I BELIEVE THAT WILL BE EXPLAINED BY THE PETITIONER WHEN HE MAKES HIS RECOMMENDATION. JUST A REMINDER, CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY FOR THE RECORD. THIS ITEM IS NOT QUASI-JUDICIAL. THIS ITEM IS LEGISLATIVE. IT IS A PUBLIC POLICY DECISION OF CITY COUNCIL TOP CHANGE THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP RELATIVE TO THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. IT IS SEPARATE FROM ITEM NUMBER 3 WHICH TRAVELS WITH IT. THAT IS THE REZONING. AND I JUST WANT TO REMIND COUNCIL WITH REGARD TO THE EVIDENCE IN THIS CASE, IT IS A FAIRLY DEBATABLE STANDARD, AND AS SUCH I AM GOING TO ASK THE PUBLIC THAT IF YOU ARE HEAR -- HERE TO SPEAK ON ITEM 2 THAT YOU LIMIT IT TOTAL MATTER AT HAND, WHICH IS THE PLANNED AMENDMENT TO THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP, AND NOT TALK ABOUT, IF YOU CAN, PLEASE, THE SPECIFIC REZONING ISSUES THAT WOULD COME UP WHEN ITEM NUMBER 3 WOULD BE TAKEN UP. JUST A REMINDER COUNCIL TO PLEASE SEPARATE THE TWO ITEMS, AND FOR THE PUBLIC, THOSE BE TAKEN UP SEPARATELY, AND WE CAN CONTINUE FORTH FROM THAT. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT. SPEAKING ON THIS ISSUE? >>MARTIN SHELBY: THE PETITIONER IS PRESENT, BY THE WAY. THERE HE IS. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT. YOU HAVE BEEN SWORN ON THE SECOND FLOOR, MR. MICHELINI? >>STEVE MICHELINI: YES, SIR, I HAVE BEEN SWORN. THERE WAS A CITY PRESENTATION LAST TIME. I AM NOT SURE, BUT IT WAS FOUND CONSISTENT. AND I WANTED TO START OFF BY SAYING THAT PURSUANT TO THE LAST HEARING THAT WE HAD, THAT WE REMOVED 502 ORLEANS AND 411 SOUTH WILLOW, AND THIS PETITION FOR A LAND USE CHANGE ONLY PERTAINS TO 413 SOUTH WILLOW. THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REVIEWED THIS, AND AS JENNIFER MALONE HAS ALREADY INDICATED, IT WAS FOUND CONSISTENT, AND IT WAS FOUND CONSISTENT BY THE CITY STAFF AS WELL. SO WHEN WE GO FORWARD WITH THIS, I WANTED TO SHARE A COUPLE OF AERIALS WITH YOU. THIS IS AN AERIAL SHOWING THE SUBJECTS PARCEL -- I'M SORRY? SHOWS THE SUBJECT PARCEL AND THEN ALL OF THESE OTHER PARCELS THAT YOU ARE SEEING HERE, THEY ARE HIGHER DENSITY. THEY ARE EITHER RESIDENTIAL 35 OR RESIDENTIAL 20. AND LET ME SHOW YOU THE PHOTOGRAPHS. THIS IS IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THIS PROPERTY TO THE NORTH. THIS IS TO THE SOUTH ACROSS HORATIO. THIS IS DIAGONALLY SOUTH ACROSS WHO ARE RAYS OWE, SLIGHTLY TO THE EAST. AND THIS IS A PHOTOGRAPH DIRECTLY TO THE EAST. THIS IS A PHOTOGRAPH SHOWING YOU HORATIO LOOKING NORTHWARD TOWARD THE CROSSTOWN, AND HORATIO IS USED AS A COLLECTOR AND CONNECTION TO THIS AREA. THE AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHS HERE, LET ME SHARE THIS WITH YOU, THESE ARE ALL MULTIFAMILY SURROUNDING MULTIFAMILY AND HAVE LAND USE DESIGNATIONS THAT ARE REZ 20 OR REZ 35. THIS IS A CLOSE-UP SHOWING YOU AGAIN THE SUBJECT PROPERTY HERE, AND THEN APARTMENTS AND TOWNHOUSES ON ALL THE OTHER SIDES. WHEN THIS CAME TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION ITSELF, IT WAS VOTED ON AND FOUND TO BE CONSISTENT, AND THEN THE DESIGNATIONS, AND I NEED TO READ THESE INTO THE RECORD REGARDING THE RESOLUTION, THAT IT MET LAND USE OBJECTIVE 1.1 RECOGNIZING THAT THE CITY IS COMPRISED OF UNIQUE DISTRICTS, UNIVERSITY CENTRAL, NEW TAMPA, SOUTH TAMPA, ET CETERA, 1 .1.1, RECOGNIZE CENTRAL TAMPA DISTRICT AS A PRIMARY URBAN EMPLOYMENT CIVIC AND CULTURAL CENTER, AS FOUND IN THE DIVERSE NEIGHBORHOOD, FOSTERING A VIBE RANTS URBAN LIVING LIFESTYLE THROUGH MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT TO THE ENTERTAINMENT AND CULTURAL FACILITIES. LAND USE 1.27 CREATES INSPIRED URBAN DESIGN WHILE RESPECTING TAMPA'S HUMAN SCALE, UNIQUE HISTORY AESTHETICS NATURAL ENVIRONMENT, AND THE SENSE OF COMMUNITY IDENTITY AS A CITY HE INVOLVED. LAND USE POLICY 1 .2.3 RELATE NEW BUILDINGS AND DEVELOPMENT TO THE CONTEXT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE COMMUNITY. AND THIS IS OF PARTICULAR IMPORTANCE BECAUSE THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL IS IN THE MIDDLE OF OTHER MULTIFAMILY PROJECTS. AND THEN THE PROPOSAL WOULD ALLOW 20 DEVELOPMENT UNITS TO THE ACRE WHICH IN THIS CASE IS THREE UNITS. PROMOTE WIDE RANGE OF USES, POLICY 1 .2.8, CLOSE PROXIMITY TO EACH OTHER. THESE USES SHALL INCLUDE BUT NOT LIMITED TO MIXED DENSITY HOUSING WITH A VARIETY OF HOUSING OPTIONS, LOCAL SERVING GOODS AND SERVICES, CIVIC USE, EMPLOYMENT GENERATORS. THEN LAND USE OBJECTIVE 2 .1 REGULATES THE LEVEL OF BUILDING INTENSITY IMPORTING THE STANDARD AND LAND DESIGNATIONS IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE THE PROJECTED POPULATION INCREASE OF 150,000 PEOPLE AND 157,000 EMPLOYEES BY 2040, AND AS I SHOWED YOU ON THE PHOTOGRAPHS, THE PROPERTIES TO THE EAST ARE DESIGNATED RESIDENTIAL 35 AND DENSITY IS ONE AND A HALF TIMES THE DENSITY THAT'S BEING REQUESTED FOR THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL, WHICH IS RESIDENTIAL 20 VERSUS THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL 35. ENCOURAGE COMPACT HIGHER DENSITY DEVELOPMENT THAT IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING CHARACTER. AND I WOULD VENTUREITURE TO SAY THAT THREE TOWNHOUSE UNITS THAT WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO BE BUILT THON PROPERTY IS CERTAINLY WITHIN THAT RANGE, AND IS LESS INTENSE THAN WHAT'S ALREADY EXISTING AROUND THERE. LAND USE POLICY 2 .1 .2, USE LIMITED RESOURCES MORE EFFICIENTLY AND PURSUE A DEVELOPMENT PATTERN THAT FITS MORE ECONOMICALLY SOUND BY ENCOURAGING IN-FILL DEVELOPMENT ON VACANT AND OTHER UTILIZED SITES. UNDERUTILIZED SITES. AGAIN THIS PARCEL AT 413 SOUTH WILLOW MEETS ALL OF THAT CRITERIA. LAND USE OBJECTIVE 3 .4, ESTABLISHES HILLSBOROUGH RIVER AS THE FOCUS OF CENTER CITY CREATING A LINK BETWEEN PLACES AND PROMOTE PEDESTRIAN ACTIVITY AND EXTEND VALUE TO THE COMMUNITY. THIS PARCEL IS LOCATE LOCATED BETWEEN THAT COLLECTOR ON PLATT STREET AND HORATIO, AND OLD HYDE PARK VILLAGE. ENCOURAGE MORE IN DIVERSE HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES IN THE CITY BY AMENDING CURRENTS LAND USE DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS AND A WAY TO PROMOTE DEVELOPMENT OF RESIDENTIAL AND MIXED USE PROJECTS. THE STAFF, BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT, WENT TO GREAT LENGTHS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE CONSISTENT WITH THE PLANS. LAND USE OBJECTIVE 3.5, RECOGNIZES STRENGTHEN CITY NEIGHBORHOODS, CREATE VIBRANT DIVERSE DISTINCTION AND INTERCONNECTIVE COMMUNITY. 3.355th .3 PROMOTE DEVELOPMENT THAT RESPECTS HISTORIC CHARACTER AND DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE CENTRAL CITY NEIGHBORHOODS. THIS DOES EXACTLY THAT. AS A MATTER OF FACT, THIS IS PROBABLY A BETTER MIX PATTERN AND CHARACTER THAN THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT. POLICY 9.8 PROVIDES FOR THE CONCENTRATION OF HOUSING IN AREAS WHERE PUBLIC TRANSIT AND LOCAL SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE AND ACCESSIBLE TO THE PEDESTRIAN. WE ARE APPROXIMATELY TWO BLOCKS SOUTH OF PLATT, AND WHERE HORATIO MEETS WITH THE CROSSTOWN WHERE THERE ARE NUMEROUS OPPORTUNITIES FOR BUS AND TRANSIT. LAND USE POLICY 9.8.1, USE MODERATE DENSITY, MULTIFAMILY ZONES AND MULTIFAMILY AREAS. THIS IS A MULTIFAMILY AREA, AND THIS IS PROPOSED AS A SINGLE FAMILY SEMI-DETACHED WHICH IS THREE UNITS. TOPPING PROVIDE ADDITIONAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES TO ENCOURAGE IN-FILL PROJECTS, CONVERSATIONS WITH EXISTING -- CONVERSION TO EXISTING BUILDINGS WITH COMPATIBLE AND EXISTING USES OF HOUSES IN SMALL TO MODERATE SCALE APARTMENT BUILDINGS, OR PROVIDING NEW RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AND MODERN DENSITY WHICH CAN FILL VACANT AND UNDERUTILIZED SITES WITH RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES. THE FACT THAT WE HAVE -- AT LEAST ON THE EAST SIDE BY THE RESIDENTIAL 35, AND THE RESIDENTIAL 20, THIS IS AN IDEAL MATCH FOR THAT TRANSITION FROM RESIDENTIAL 20 TO THE RESIDENTIAL 35. PROMOTE DENSER RESIDENTIAL -- 9.8 .3, PROMOTE DENSER RESIDENTIAL SCALE MULTIFAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS BY PERMITTING BUILDING TYPES THAT ALLOW FOR MULTIFAMILY WALK-UP APARTMENTS. THESE BUILDINGS SHOULD BE DESIGNED WITH HEIGHT LIMITS AND DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND PROMOTES STRONG RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE INDIVIDUAL BUILDINGS, DWELLINGS AND THE GROUND LEVEL. THIS ALSO MEETS THAT CRITERIA. HOUSING GOALS OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES. OBJECTIVE 1.3, ENSURE THAT ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF HOUSING IS AVAILABLE TO MEET THE NEEDS AND PREFERENCES AND FINANCIAL CAPABILITIES OF TAMPA HOUSEHOLDS NOW AND IN THE FUTURE OF ALL NEIGHBORHOODS. HOUSING POLICY 1.3.4 ENCOURAGE NEW HOUSING ON VACANT IN-FILL AND UNDERUTILIZED LAND. AND THEN IT GOES ON TO SAY THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION ITSELF HAS MET THAT CRITERIA AND THEY FOUND IN FAVOR OF US MOVING FORWARD AND PRESENTING THIS CASE TO YOU. WE HAVE ENDEAVORED TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. WE HAVE REACHED OUT AND ASKED TO MEET WITH REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, AND THAT DID NOT HAPPEN. THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU IS TO ALLOW THE DEVELOPMENT OF UP TO A MAXIMUM OF THREE RESIDENTIAL UNITS ON THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL. AND AGAIN, WE HAVE MET ALL OF THE CRITERIA ESTABLISHED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION, BY THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AND THAN THE CITY REVIEW AND ITS STANDARDS REGARDING LAND USE CHANGES AND LAND USE AMENDMENTS. THE MAXIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THIS PROPERTY IS 4,132 SQUARE FEET, AND THAT ALLOWS FOR THE MAXIMUM OF THREE UNITS. THE SURROUNDING AREA CONTAINS A MIX OF DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY, TWO FAMILY, MULTIFAMILY RESIDENCES AND THEIR MULTIFAMILY RESIDENCES TO THE EAST, SOUTHEAST, AND SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE, TO THE WEST OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY ARE DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY. TO THE NORTH IS A TWO-FAMILY DUPLEX, ACTUALLY A FOUR-UNIT APARTMENT BUILDING. CLOSEST PUBLIC RECREATIONAL FACILITY IS HYDE PARK, WHICH IS THREE QUARTERS OF A MILE TO THE SOUTHWEST. THE CLOSEST TRANSIT STOP IS A QUARTER MILE TO THE NORTHEAST. AS MENTIONED THIS THIS IS HE CORNER OF PLATT AND DELAWARE. WHEN YOU ARE REVIEWING THIS, IN THE CONTEXT OF ITS LOCATION, THIS LOCATION SITS IN THE MIDDLE OF SURROUNDED BY MULTIFAMILY WITH HIGHER DENSITIES. IT ALSO SERVES THE PUBLIC IN TERMS OF TAKING AN UNDERUTILIZED PARCEL OF LAND AND CONVERTS IT INTO A MORE EFFICIENT USE OF THE PROPERTY, WITH THREE UNITS. AND AGAIN, THOSE ARE RESTRICTIONS THAT ARE APPLIED. AND JUST AS A REMINDER, I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE AWARE, BACK AGAIN, BASED UPON OUR FIRST HEARING, ALL OF THE OTHER PARCELS HAVE BEEN REMOVED EXCEPT FOR THE ONE AT THE CORNER OF HORATIO AND WILLOW. I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE REGARDING THE LAND USE. HOWEVER, WE CONCUR WITH THE STAFF, THE CITY AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION AS WELL AS THE PLANNING COMMISSIONERS, THAT THIS IS A VIABLE AND APPROPRIATE CHANGE TO MAKE, AND IT IS AN IDEAL TRANSITION BETWEEN THE RESIDENTIAL 35 THAT EXISTS TO THE EAST, TO A RESIDENTIAL 20 WHICH IS WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING AT THIS CORNER. SO I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE, BUT WE CONCUR WITH THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION THAT THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, IT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY STAFF REVIEWS AND RECOMMENDATIONS AS WELL AS THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. DINGFELDER, I NOTICE YOU HAD YOUR HAND UP A COUPLE TIMES DURING THIS PRESENTATION. YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. MR. MICHELINI, THE PHOTOGRAPHS WERE FEIGN, AND I APPRECIATE YOUR WANTING TO EXPEDITE THIS, BUT COULD YOU GIVE US -- SHOW US THE FRONT VIEW OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, NOT AN AERIAL VIEW. THAT'S A LITTLE HARD TO MAKE OUT. BUT IF ONE OF THOSE WAS ACTUALLY THE STREET VIEW OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. AND THEN I HAD A QUESTION FOR STAFF, MR. CHAIRMAN. >>STEVE MICHELINI: I AM FLIPPING THROUGH THE PHOTOGRAPHS NOW. THIS, MR. DINGFELDER, IS A SIDE VIEW. ACTUALLY, THAT'S A REAR VIEW FROM THE ALLEY. AND THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS ON THE RIGHT SIDE. AND YOU CAN SEE THE APARTMENT BUILDING IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE NORTH. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY. SO RIGHT NOW, THIS IS A SINGLE-FAMILY HOUSE, THE YELLOW ONE? >>STEVE MICHELINI: SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL PROPERTY. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY. I GOT CONFUSED ABOUT WHICH ONE GOT DELETED AND WHICH IS LEFT. IS THIS ON THE CORNER OF WILLOW? >>STEVE MICHELINI: YES, THIS IS THE CORNER OF WILLOW AND HORATIO. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY. AND IS IT SAFE TO ASSUME THIS IS A BUNGALOW ON THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE? >>STEVE MICHELINI: I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A BUNGALOW OR NOT, BUT IT'S AN OLDER SINGLE-FAMILY HOME. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: ALL RIGHT. I APPRECIATE IT. STAFF -- AND I AM NOT SURE WHICH STAFF CAN PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION BEST. THE REQUEST AT LEAST BY HIS ADMISSION INDICATES THREE UNITS, ULTIMATELY THREE UNITS ON A 50-FOOT PIECE OF PROPERTY. AND MR. SHELBY, DON'T WORRY, I AM NOT GOING TO THE ZONING. BUT I'M JUST ADDRESSING WHAT MR. MICHELINI STATED IN HIS PRESENTATION. THREE UNITS ON A 50-FOOT PARCEL. SO I WOULD LIKE SOMEBODY ON STAFF TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE SURROUNDING USES, NOT TELL ME WHAT THE POTENTIAL IS ON R-35 OR R-20 OR R-10 OR WHAT HAVE YOU, BUT ACTUALLY TELL ME, ARE THERE ANY PROJECTS ALONG THAT STREET OR EVEN NEARBY THAT ARE BUILT OUT AT THREE UNITS ON 50-FOOT PARCELS? BECAUSE -- AND I TOTALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IN THAT AREA THERE MIGHT BE TWO UNITS, A DUPLEX, A MODERN DUPLEX ON A 50-FOOT PARCEL. BUT I'M A LITTLE HARD PRESSED TO PICTURE THREE UNITS ON A 50-FOOT PARCEL. >>STEVE MICHELINI: I CAN SHOW YOU -- >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I AM NOT ASKING STEVE RIGHT NOW, AND YOU CAN REBUT. BUT MS. MALONE, OR FRANK, IF EITHER OF YOU COULD HELP ME, I WOULD APPRECIATE IT. >>JENNIFER MALONE: COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER, THAT'S A GREAT POINT. I AM TRYING MY BEST TO DO A VERY QUICK ANALYSIS ON GOOGLE, BUT IT WILL NOT BE PERFECT ON THE SLIDE. AND I REALLY AM INTERESTED TO LET YOU KNOW ABOUT THE DENSITY AND THE SURROUNDING POTENTIAL -- BUT, I MEAN, I CAN CERTAINLY DO MY BEST OR ASK FRANK -- >>JOHN DINGFELDER: MAYBE WE CAN CIRCLE BACK AFTER THE PUBLIC COMMENT, AND SEE HOW YOU ARE DOING. WOULD THAT WORK? >>JENNIFER MALONE: SURE. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY, MR. CHAIRMAN? >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, JUST FOR THE RECORD, MR. MICHELINI? >>STEVE MICHELINI: YES, SIR. I HAVE THE SURVEY UP ON THE SCREEN. IT'S NOT A 50-FOOT LOT. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: HOW BIG IS THE LOT? >> 65 BY 128. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: ALL RIGHT. SO MY QUESTION STILL STANDS TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF, JENNIFER, YOU KNOW, CAN SHE QUICKLY REVIEW THE SURROUNDING AREA AND TELL US, I AM GOING TO ASSUME THE OTHER LOTS AROUND THERE MIGHT BE SIMILAR SIZE, AND IF THEY ARE, I -- ARE WE LOOKING AT THREE UNITS ON THE SURROUNDING LOTS? THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION, MR. MICHELINI. >>STEVE MICHELINI: I CAN SHOW YOU THE OWNERSHIP PATTERN WHICH CLEARLY SHOWS THESE ARE HIGHER DENSITIES AND THEY HAVE LOTS IDENTIFIED. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: WHY DON'T WE WAIT AND SEE WHAT JENNIFER COMES UP WITH AND I WILL BE GLAD TO HEAR YOU ON REBUTTAL, STEVE. >>STEVE MICHELINI: I SHOWED IT TO YOU ON THE PRESENTATION. I WILL HAPPY TO SHOW IT TO YOU AGAIN. >>JENNIFER MALONE: CAN I ASK A QUESTION? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >>JENNIFER MALONE: THANK YOU. WOULD THIS BE THE MATTER OF LOT SIZE YOU WOULD LIKE ME TO CONFIRM? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: HE'S SHOWING A 65-FOOT LOT. I DON'T KNOW IF THE LOTS ALONG THERE ARE 657 FEET OR IF THEY ARE SMALLER, BIGGER OR WHAT HAVE YOU. BUT BASICALLY WHAT I AM WONDERING IS, IS THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN THREE UNITS, THREE INDIVIDUAL UNITS, ON A 60-FOOT LOT OR 65-FOOT LOT OR WHAT HAVE YOU? >>JENNIFER MALONE: OKAY, IT'S A LITTLE TRICKY BECAUSE THE ZONES WITH RS-60 DESIGNATION IS TOUGH TO ESTIMATE THE SIZE OF THE LOT ON THE SLIDE. I CAN USE A MEASURING TOOL BUT IT WOULD BE AN ESTIMATE ON THE COMPUTER. I DON'T WANT TO GIVE AN INCORRECT ANSWER, IS WHAT I AM SAYING. BUT I CAN CERTAINLY DO MY BEST TO SEE IF THERE ARE THREE UNITS ON A 60-FOOT LOT BUT IT MAY NOT BE 100% ACCURATE. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: IF BEST IS ALL YOU HAVE, WE WILL CIRCLE BACK TO YOU AFTER PUBLIC COMMENT IF THAT'S OKAY, MR. CHAIRMAN. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, WHILE WE ARE ON ADJOURNMENT, MR. MICHELINI ASKED TO SPEAK TO ME AS RELATES TO SOME TYPE OF COMMUNITY MEETING WITH COUNCIL MEMBERS AND WANTED TO BE TRANSPARENT, PUT THAT ON THE RECORD, WHAT HAVE YOU, SINCE THAT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION, I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS ITEM 2 OR 3 BUT WHEN I SEE 413 SOUTH WILLOW, I WANT TO BRING THAT TO YOUR ATTENTION. >>STEVE MICHELINI: THAT HAS TO DO WITH ITEM 3 AND NOT 2. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT. WE WILL GET TO THAT ITEM. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU FOR RAISING THAT BECAUSE ON ITEM NUMBER 3, I WILL BE ASKING FOR COUNCIL TO DISCLOSE EX PARTE COMMUNICATIONS RELATIVE TO ITEM NUMBER 3 BECAUSE IT IS A QUASI-JUDICIAL MATTER. ITEM NUMBER 3, MR. CHAIRMAN, IS A QUASI-JUDICIAL. THEREFORE, OBVIOUSLY THE EX PARTE COMMUNICATION YOU HAD WITH THE PETITIONER, I WOULD ASK YOU TO DISCLOSE THAT WHEN I ASK EVERYBODY AS WELL. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. WE'LL CONTINUE. WE WILL HEAR FROM THE PUBLIC NOW. ANYBODY TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 2? ON THE SECOND FLOOR? >>AILEEN ROSARIO: DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH MANAGEMENT. FOR THIS ITEM, I HAVE 15 PEOPLE THAT ARE HERE ON THE SECOND FLOOR TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM AND THEY HAVE ALL BEEN SWORN IN. >>ORLANDO GUDES: HOW MANY? >>AILEEN ROSARIO: 15. >>ORLANDO GUDES: PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. >> MY NAME IS PAM KANELA, 604 SOUTH ORLEANS. I FOUND THE CRITERIA USED TO SUBSTANTIATE THE REZONING OF 413 SOUTH WILLOW TO BE INCONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES OF THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I READ THEM. THESE GOALS ARE -- >>JOHN DINGFELDER: POINT OF ORDER, MR. CHAIRMAN. HOLD UP ONE SECOND, MA'AM. MR. SHELBY HAS THE SAME POINT OF ORDER. >>MARTIN SHELBY: YOU RAISE A POINT OF ORDER? ARE YOU HERE TO SPEAK TO THE REZONING OR ARE YOU HEAR TO SPEAK TO THE CHANGE TO THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP? >> LAND USE. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THE LAND USE. >> YES, SIR. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: YOU STARTED OUT BY TALKING ABOUT THE REZONING. THE REZONING IS ITEM 3. >> YES, SIR. I HAVE AN EXTRA THREE MINUTES AND I WANT TO SPEAK ON THAT, BUT ALSO GOES ALONG WITH THE LAND USE. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: RIGHT. SO RIGHT NOW WE ARE JUST TALKING ABOUT NUMBER 2. >> I GOT IT. >>MARTIN SHELBY: A QUESTION WITH REGARD TO -- YOU MENTIONED AN EXTRA THREE MINUTES. HOW IS IT YOU HAVE -- DO YOU HAVE A SPEAKER WAIVER FORM? >> RIGHT HERE. YES. [ LAUGHTER ] >>MARTIN SHELBY: LET ME ASK YOU THIS. ARE YOU WAIVING YOUR THREE MINUTES MA'AM? >> I AM, YES. >> >>MARTIN SHELBY: AND YOU WILL NOT BE SPEAKING TONIGHT ON THIS ITEM NUMBER 2. >> ON THIS ITEM NUMBER 2. >>MARTIN SHELBY: YOU ARE GIVING UP THREE MINUTES OF YOUR TIME TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL MINUTE TO MRS. CANELA'S TIME SO SHE WILL HAVE AN ADDITIONAL 4 MINUTES? >> THAT IS CORRECT. >>MARTIN SHELBY: IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE? AND YOUR NAME AGAIN FOR THE RECORD? >> PAM CANELA. >> AND THE WOMAN WHO IS WAIVING HER TIME? >> DANA GLASSER. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. SO A TOTAL OF FOUR MINUTES. AND AGAIN, THE POINT OF ORDER THAT WAS RAISED, THAT'S IN ISSUE HERE NOW, IS THE CHANGE OF THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP FROM -- >> YES, REZONING OF THE LAND USE. >>MARTIN SHELBY: NO, NO, IT'S NOT A REZONING. >> OH, I'M SORRY. LAND USE -- >>MARTIN SHELBY: JUST SO WE ARE CLEAR FOR THE RECORD, AND MIGHT AS WELL DO THIS FOR THE BENEFIT -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, IF SHE WANTS IF YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD AND GIVE QUICK INSTRUCTION, MAKE SURE THOSE IN THE ROOM NOW, THERE'S ABOUT 15 PEOPLE, MAKE SURE THEY KNOW THERE ARE TWO SEPARATE PORTIONS TO THIS. >>MARTIN SHELBY: IF YOU CAN SPEAK INTO THE MICROPHONE SO THEY CAN SEE YOU AS WELL. >>ORLANDO GUDES: IF YOU WOULD LET THE FOLKS IN THE SECOND ROOM KNOW THERE ARE TWO SEPARATE ITEMS, ONE IS A REZONING AND ONE IS AN AMENDMENT, PLANNING COMMISSION, A CHANGE, SO LET THEM KNOW THE INSTRUCTIONS SO THEY WON'T BE STOPPED FROM TALKING IN REFERENCE TO ITEM 2 OR 3. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: BUT THEY CAN COME BACK. THEY CAN COME BACK AND SPEAK ON BOTH. >>ORLANDO GUDES: CORRECT. >> I'M HOPING WE DON'T HAVE TO COME BACK. >>MARTIN SHELBY: WELL, IN TERMS OF AFTER ITEM 2, IF WE MOVE FORWARD OBVIOUSLY THERE WOULD BE A PRESENTATION AN THEN AN ITEM TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 3. ITEM 3 IS THE REZONING. THIS ITEM HERE FOR THE PUBLIC IS SOLELY ON THE DISCUSSION OF WHETHER COUNCIL SHOULD AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP FROM THE CURRENT DESIGNATION OF RESIDENTIAL 10, R-10, TO RESIDENTIAL 35, R-35. AND WHETHER YOU ARE IN SUPPORT OF THAT CHANGE, AND STATING THE REASONS THEREFORE, OR WHETHER YOU ARE OPPOSED TO THAT CHANGE AND STATING THOSE REASONS. THANK YOU. >> READY? >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE ARE READY, MA'AM. >> OKAY. I OPPOSE THE CHANGE FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THAT IT IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES OF OUR TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THESE GOALS ARE THE PEOPLE'S SAFETY AND QUALITY OF LIFE, OUR INFRASTRUCTURE, AND MOBILITY, ARE THE WRITTEN GUIDELINES BY WHICH TAMPA'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROMOTE RESPONSIBLE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT. OUR FLORIDA STATUTE SECTION 163.3177 REQUIRES THAT THE CITY PROVIDE THAT PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES MEET AND OR EXCEED THE STANDARDS NECESSARY FOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT. THE CITY HAS NOT MET THESE GOALS. GOAL NUMBER 1, PEOPLE'S SAFETY, AFFECTS THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE. ADDITIONAL TRAFFIC DENSITY TO OUR AREA IS UNSAFE FOR THE RESIDENTS AS WELL AS FOR THE PUBLIC WHO COME TO ENJOY OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WE HAVE REDUCED CAR LANES TO FIT BIKE LANES WHICH ARE UNSAFE FOR THE BICYCLISTS AND THE PEDESTRIANS. NUMBER TWO, OUR INFRASTRUCTURE. FOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT TO SUPPORT EXISTING RESIDENTS, WE NEED, NUMBER ONE, DRAINAGE SYSTEM THAT ACTUALLY WORKS. OUR SEWER PIPES THAT ARE NOT IN NEED OF CONSTANT REPAIR, AND BACK YARDS THAT DON'T FLOOD EVERY TIME IT RAINS. MOBILITY. NO BALANCE OF MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION NETWORK CAUSING AN IMPACT ON OUR -- MY MOUTH IS GETTING TIRED, EXCUSE ME. THERE'S NO BALANCE OF MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION NETWORK. IT'S CAUSING AN IMPACT ON OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. THE CITY WOULD LIKE US TO BELIEVE THAT WE EXCEL IN THIS AREA, BUT AGAIN WE LAG IN ALL AREAS OF MOBILITY. OUR BIKE LANES ARE NOT SAFE. IN SOME AREAS, THEY MEASURE ONLY FOUR FEET. AND I HAVE MEASURED THEM. WHEN FIVE FEET MEATS THE REQUIREMENT FOR SAFETY. THEY DO NOT CONNECT FROM ONE STREET TO ANOTHER. NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT OUR TRANSIT AND BUS SOMETIME THAT ALSO FALL UNDER MOBILITY. AND THEY ARE INADEQUATE AND ONLY 1 .2% OF THE WORKING FORCE USE THEM. THE REASON? A 20 TO 30 MINUTE TRIP IN A CAR IS THREE HOURS OR MORE BY BUS. THERE'S LIMITED SERVICE IN OUR AREA. IT RUNS ONLY ON THE HOUR. THERE ARE SEVERAL TRANSFERS FOR ONE DESTINATION. THE PUBLIC STILL HAVING TO WALK TO THEIR DESTINATION ONCE THEY TRAVELED THREE BUSES. IT'S VERY CONFUSING AND TIME CONSUMING FOR VISITORS AND FOR THE LOCALS. IN 2019, FEDERAL TRANSIT AUTHORITY, AMERICAN AUTHORITY AND THE AMERICAN HOUSING SURVEY RANKED TAMPA BAY THE 8th WORST METRO AREA FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. ALLOWING THE -- I'M SORRY, ALLOWING THE CHANGE OF LAND USE OF 413 SOUTH WILLOW WOULD BE AGAINST THE GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES WRITTEN BY PAST GENERATIONS AND ARE IN CONSTANT -- EXCUSE ME, ARE INCONSISTENT WITH TAMPA'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR RESPONSIBLE FOUGHT GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: GIVE YOU TEN SECONDS MA'AM. >> SURE. CAN I HAVE SOME WATER? MY MOUTH IS DRY. >>ORLANDO GUDES: I GAVE YOU TEN SECONDS. >> ARE YOU READY FOR ME? >>ORLANDO GUDES: ARE YOU DONE? >> WELL, OKAY. I KNOW -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: I GIVE YOU TEN SECONDS. >> TWO SECONDS? OH, TEN SECONDS. OKAY. ON THE SITE PLAN THAT WAS PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT -- >>JOHN DINGFELDER: WE ARE NOT THERE YET. THE SITE PLAN RELATES TO NUMBER 3. >> BUT IT STILL EFFECTS DENSITY. I AM NOT ALLOWED TO SPEAK ON THAT? >>ORLANDO GUDES: NO. >> IN A PROBLEM THEN. I THOUGHT I HAD TO SPEAK ON THAT. THANK YOU SO MUCH. >>ORLANDO GUDES: OKAY, ARE WE READY? >> YES. >>ORLANDO GUDES: STATE YOUR NAME FOR US. >> VIRGINIA SMITH. READY? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, MA'AM. >> OKAY. DISCUSSING THE WATER AND INFRASTRUCTURE OF OUR AREA. WE ALREADY HAVE A DRAINAGE AND SEWER PROBLEMS IN THE AREA. INFRASTRUCTURE CANNOT HANDLE MORE DEVELOPMENT. IT'S LIKE DRINKING FROM A FIRE HOSE. AT SOME POINT YOU REACH A TIPPING POINT AND WE HAVE REACHED THAT TIPPING POINT. WITH DEVELOPMENT IN OUR AREA. YESTERDAY. THIS IS RIGHT HERE IN THAT AREA. OF WHERE IT'S BEING REPAIRED. OUR SEWERS COLLAPSE OFTEN. AND THEY HAVE BEEN OUT THREE AND FOUR TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. THIS IS ON THE CORNER OF HORATIO AND ORLEANS. HORATIO AND ORLEANS, AS YOU CAN SEE -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR. >>MARTIN SHELBY: IT'S LARGE ENOUGH TO BE HELD UP IN FRONT OF HER. >>ORLANDO GUDES: IF YOU JUST HOLD IT UP, WE CAN SEE IT, IT'S THAT BIG. WE CAN SEE THOSE, YES. >> DOWN THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, THE ORANGE CONE, THAT'S WHERE ONE OF THESE SEWER PIPES HAVE COLLAPSED. AND THAT'S BEEN THAT WAY FOR SEVERAL WEEKS NOW. WE GOT IT MARKED BUT IT JUST SITS THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. HOPEFULLY NOBODY RUNS OVER IT AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT'S NOT LIT. OKAY. DEVELOPMENTS DON'T INCORPORATE FRENCH DRAIN SYSTEMS OR CISTERN-TYPE UNDERGROUND RETENTION OF WATER. INSTEAD, AS HEAR ON OUR SITE PLAN, THE DEVELOPER HAS PROVIDED RETENTION DITCHES FOR WATER. >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU CAN'T SPEAK ON THE ZONING ISSUES ON NUMBER 3. >> OKAY. SO CAN I KEEP GOING HERE? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, MA'AM. YOU STILL HAVE TIME. >> SO DRIVING ON WILLOW, IT'S JUST NOT -- I JUST WANT TO SHOW SOMEBODY THE TYPE OF DITCHES THAT WE HAVE AROUND HYDE PARK THAT THIS IS ONE I FOUND, IN THE ENTRANCE TO HYDE PARK OFF MORRISON, YOU CAN SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL THOSE RETENTION DITCHES LOOK, OKAY? REALLY PRETTY FROM WILLOW. AND THEY ALSO ADD TO THE MOSQUITO PROBLEM. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS BUT THE MOSQUITOES ARE REALLY BAD THIS YEAR, AND ALL THESE DO IS MAKE MORE MOSQUITOES WHICH IS A HAZARD TO PEOPLE, AND A HEALTH HAZARD WITH THE DISEASE WHATEVER THE MOSQUITOES CARRY. ALSO HYDE PARK REVELLERS CAN FALL IN A DITCH DURING GASPARILLA. THAT'S ALSO A HAZARD. AND I STILL GO BACK TO THE SITUATION OF WHERE DOES ALL THE WATER GO? WHERE DOES THE WATER GO WHEN IT RAINS? WE ARE ELIMINATING ALL OUR TREES ON THESE LOTS. WE COVER THEM WITH CONCRETE, AND THE DRIVEWAYS, AND THERE'S NO PERCOLATING SURROUNDING SO THERE'S NO GRASSY FRONT YARDS OR BACK YARDS LIKE WE HAVE IN THE BUNGALOW LOCALITIES THAT ABSORBS THE WATER WHEN IT RAINS. SO AGAIN WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH DRAINAGE. AND TRAFFIC IS ANOTHER ONE. WILLOW IS A GATEWAY AVENUE BETWEEN HYDE PARK, SWANN, BAYSHORE, KENNEDY, DOWNTOWN AND THE CROSSTOWN COMMUTERS. THIS WILLOW IS OVERLY SATURATED WITH DENSITY AND TRAFFIC PATTERNS. SCHOOLS ARE ANOTHER AREA OF CONGESTION. YOU HAVE FOUR OR MORE SCHOOLS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY WITH PARENTS PICKING UP AND DROPPING OFF STUDENTS. YOU CAN IMAGINE WITH ALL THE TRAFFIC AT THAT TIME OF THE DAY. I WANT TO OFFER -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: FINISH YOUR THOUGHT MA'AM. >> I JUST WANTED TO OFFER AN EXAMPLE OF BUCKHEAD IN ATLANTA. I DON'T NOT IF YOU HAVE ALREADY VISITED BUCKHEAD IN ATLANTA. IT'S ALSO A MIX OF RESIDENTIAL WHERE THERE'S MULTIFAMILY AND COMMERCIAL HAS GROWN UP AMONGST IT. THE TRAFFIC DENSITY IS SUCH THAT YOU DRIVE ONE BLOCK EVERY TEN MINUTES. THAT'S WHAT WE ARE COMING TO IN THIS AREA. YOU NEED TO REALIZE WHAT'S HAPPENING IN HYDE PARK. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, MA'AM, FOR YOUR TIME. >>MARTIN SHELBY: MR. CHAIRMAN? MARTIN SHELBY, CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY. JUST ANOTHER REMINDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE THAT IF YOU SPEAK ON NUMBER 2 RELATIVE TO THE LAND USE CHANGE, YOU STILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TO THE REZONING ISSUE. YOU DO HAVE -- IT'S A SEPARATE ITEM AND YOU HAVE A SEPARATE TIME PERIOD FOR PUBLIC COMMENT FOR YOU TO RAISE THOSE ISSUES THAT DO NOT PERHAPS ABLE TO RAISE AT THIS POINT. YOU WOULD -- YOU ARE NOT BARRED, YOU ARE NOT PREVENTED FROM SPEAKING AGAIN ON THE NEXT ITEM, ITEM NUMBER 3. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU, SIR. NEXT SPEAKER. >> MY NAME IS DR. JENNIFER SKYLAND. AND I LIVE ON -- AVENUE AND I AM JUST GOING TO SPEAK FROM MY HEART. I HAVE LIVED IN THE SAME HOUSE FOR IN HYDE PARK FOR THE PAST 30 YEARS. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE OUR STARTER HOME BUT IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE OUR FINISHER HOME. IT'S A LOVELY NEIGHBORHOOD, WHERE WE ALL KNOW OUR NEIGHBORS PERSONALLY. KIND OF LIKE MAYBERRY ON THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW. THIS IS A NEIGHBORHOOD OF 1920 WOOD BUNGALOWS TO GRAND MANSIONS AND STREETS LINED WITH GRAND OAKS TO SHADE OUR LOVELY SIDEWALKS. AND IT IS THIS, THAT ATTRACTS PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER TAMPA AND BEYOND TO COME AND VISIT AND STEP INTO THE SCENIC 100-YEAR-OLD NEIGHBORHOOD, NOT APARTMENTS. AT ANY TIME OF DAY YOU CAN SEE JOGGERS, WALKERS WITH DOGS, MOMS PUSHING BABY CARTS, BICYCLISTS AND RENTED EXECUTEDERS SKYPING AROUND, CHILDREN AND TEENS WALKING TO AND FROM SCHOOL. HOWEVER, WITH THE INCREASED BUILDING OF APARTMENTS AND POPULATION DENSITY, TRAFFIC HAS INCREASED AT LEAST TEN FOLD SINCE I FIRST MOVED HERE. EVERY DAY IS CHAOS WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC, WEAVING LEFT TO RIGHT TO AVOID ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND PARKED CARS. EVERY DAY, I GET IN MY CAR, I FEEL LIKE I AM PLAYING CHICKEN ON THE ROAD TO GET OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD. IT IS DOWN RIGHT DANGEROUS FOR THE YOUTH, THE ELDERLY, THE HANDICAPPED, THE JOGGERS AND THE SCOOTERS, AND OUR BELOVED PETS, AND OF COURSE THE DRIVERS. MORE TIMES THAN NOT, IT HAS BEEN A DANGEROUS FEAT FOR ME TO CROSS WILLOW OR SWANN WHEN I WALK MY DOG EVERY DAY. THERE ARE FIVE SCHOOLS WITHIN A FEW BLOCKS OF MY HOUSE, GORY ELEMENTARY ON DeLEON, ST. JOE'S MIDDLE SCHOOL ON SOUTH ORLEANS, ST. JOE'S KINDERGARTEN ON ROME AVENUE, WILSON MIDDLE ON DeLEON AND THE GRECO ORTHODOX ON SWANN AVENUE. TWICE A DAY, EACH HAVE LONG CAR LINES THAT WRAP AROUND BUSY STREETS, AND WE WONDER WHY WE HAVE ROAD RAGE. THIS TRAFFIC SITUATION IS A RECIPE FOR DISASTER. I ENCOURAGE YOU TO ONLY ALLOW THE BUILDING OF SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES LIKE THE ONES BUILT ON THE 500 BLOCK OF SOUTH ORLEANS AVENUE. I URGE YOU TO PUT PEOPLE AND THEIR SAFETY BEFORE PROFIT. LET R OUR RESIDENTS ARE SPEAKING OUT. PLEASE HEAR THEIR VOICES. IN CLOSING, THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CALLS FOR THE SAFETY OF -- THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. >> HELLO. >>ORLANDO GUDES: STATE YOUR NAME. >> I'M CHERYL CREW. I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN. AND A QUESTION, THOUGH, I BOUGHT MY HOUSE AT 606 SOUTH ORLEANS 25 YEARS AGO. MY HOUSE ALONG WITH OTHERS ON MY BLOCK TURN 100 THIS YEAR. WHEN I BOUGHT MY HOUSE I TOOK A CHANCE ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD, EVEN THOUGH MANY HOMES IN THE AREA HAD BARS ON THE WINDOWS, THINGS WERE STOLEN OFF OF OUR FRONT PORCHES, AND POLICE HELICOPTERS HELICOPTERS WERE CIRCLING OVER HEAD. WE WERE CONSIDERED THE WRONG SIDE OF SWANN, BUT OUR NEIGHBORS AND I WORKED HARD, AND WE MADE IMPROVEMENTS, WE RESTORED OUR HOUSES, AND NOW WE ARE PART OF THE HISTORIC HYDE PARK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. WE ARE AGAINST THE ZONING CHANGE BECAUSE OF -- OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. OTHERS COMING UP WILL EXPLAIN THE TRAFFIC PROBLEMS, NOISE, ISSUES, ET CETERA, ET CETERA. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO TOUCH ON A COUPLE REASONS WHY WE ARE AGAINST CHANGING THE DEVELOPMENT, THE ZONING AND THE DEVELOPMENT, BOTH OF THEM. THIS CHANGE WOULD SET A PRECEDENT FOR OTHER LOTS IN THIS AREA. I DON'T THINK THAT OTHER TAMPA DEPARTMENTS CAN DO THEIR JOB AND MAKE SURE THIS PROPOSAL IS ADHERED TO. ONE ZONING -- ONCE ZONING IS CHANGED TO PD THERE IS NO GOING BACK AND THE PROPERTY COULD BE USED FOR COMMERCIAL USE. IF YOU NOTE ON PAGE 3, ITEM 3, IT'S PROPOSED FOR THREE UNITS WITH A MAXIMUM OF EIGHT UNITS, AND ALSO COINCIDES WITH THEIR PLAN FOR -- THIS IS KIND OF USING LIKE MAKES YOU QUESTION WHAT THEY ARE PLANNING ON DOING WITH THE PROPERTY. THERE IS PLENTY BUILDING GOING ON RIGHT NOW IN SOUTH TAMPA FOR APARTMENTS AND CONDOS, IF YOU SEE EVERYWHERE THERE'S CONSTRUCTION ON BAYSHORE AND WILLOW AND ALL AROUND THE UNIVERSITY. YOU CAN ASK ANY REALTOR IN TAMPA THAT THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES FOR SALE IN OUR AREA. FAMILIES ARE HAVING TO SETTLE ON NEIGHBORING CITIES BECAUSE THEY CAN'T FIND A HOUSE IN TAMPA. THIS CAN'T BE GOOD FOR OUR BUSINESSES AND EMPLOYEES THAT ARE CONSIDERING MOVING TO TAMPA. TAMPA IS BECOMING A CITY OF APARTMENTS AND CONDOS INSTEAD OF FAMILY HOMES. WHILE I WAS RESEARCHING THIS THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. TO SHAPE THE CITY'S FOUGHT FOR GENERATIONS TO COME, AND ALSO STATES THAT ONCE A CITY WHERE EVERYBODY CARES ABOUT THE QUALITY OF LIFE, THE PLAN FOCUSES ON CHANGE TO SPECIFIC PARTS OF THE CITY WHILE STRENGTHENING AND PROTECTING RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS FROM DEVELOPMENT PRESSURE. AND WE ARE FEELING THOSE PRAYERS RIGHT NOW. IT MAY BE HARD FOR SOME OF YOU TO VOTE AGAINST THIS PETITION BECAUSE OF PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS THAT YOU HAVE, BUT I HOPE THAT YOU WILL THINK ABOU- [BELL SOUNDS] >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, MA'AM. >> TAXPAYERS AND VOTERS DO. THE RIGHT THING FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND VOTE NO. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. >> I'M MARY ESTHER PARKER, SOUTH WILLOW. BAILEY, OUR PRESIDENT-ELECT COULD NOT BE HERE AND I WOULD LIKE TO READ A LETTER FROM HER. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: COULD YOU COME CLOSER TO THE MIKE, PLEASE, MARY ESTHER? >> IS THAT BETTER? I AM WRITING ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF HYDE PARK PRESERVATION INC., IN REGARDS TO THE PROPOSED LAND USE CHANGE AT 413 SOUTH WILLOW TAMPA. THE BOARD VOTED UNANIMOUSLY, UNANIMOUSLY, TO OPPOSE THE REQUEST TO CHANGE THIS LOT FROM RS-50 TO A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT MULTIPLE TOWNHOMES. ACPI PRIMARY OBJECTION IS TO THE INCREASED DENSITY IN THE AREA WITH WILLOW BEING A MAJOR FEEDER ENTRY TO AND THROUGH THIS HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD. THE AREA AND THIS STRETCH OF ROAD ARE ALREADY OVERWHELMED NOT KEEPING UP WITH THE POPULATION AND ITS USE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. HPPI IS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT ANY NEW APPROVALS TO INCREASE DENSITY IN THIS AREA. ESPECIALLY IF IT COULD BE USED AS A PRECEDENT TO CONTINUES TO ALLOW DEVELOPMENT TO REPLACE SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCES OF MULTIPLE UNITS ON RELATIVELY SMALL LOTS. THIS FURTHER EXACERBATES THE MANY INFRASTRUCTURE PROBLEMS ALREADY IN EXISTENCE INCLUDING TRAFFIC OVERLOAD. EMERGENCY VEHICLES AND ONE OF THE THINGS I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE MAP, THE FIRE STATION AT THE CORNER OF WILLOW AND KENNEDY, AND THAT IS AN ACCESS ROUTE. THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE PAST CAPACITY. PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE PAST CAPACITY. THERE IS NO CASE FOR ADDING MORE DENSITY TO THIS AREA THAT IS ALREADY FRAUGHT WITH MUST BE SAFETY ISSUES. SO I JUST WANT TO EMPHASIZE AGAIN, WILLOW IS USED AS AN ACCESS FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: QUESTION. JUST FOR THE RECORD, COULD YOU INFORM US ABOUT YOUR CREDENTIALS AND KNOWLEDGE OF REAL ESTATE IN THAT PARTICULAR AREA? >> WHAT DO YOU WANT TO KNOW? IT'S DENSE. I MEAN -- >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I MEAN YOUR OWN CREDENTIALS, THAT YOU HAVE BEEN A REAL REALTOR IN THAT AREA. >> WELL, MORE IMPORTANTLY, I HAVE LIVED IN THE AREA FOR 45 YEARS, AND 45 YEARS AGO NOBODY WANTED TO LIVE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD. AND SO EVERYBODY COME IN AND MADE A VERY NICE NEIGHBORHOOD AND NOW EVERYBODY WANTS A PIECE OF IT. BUT I HAVE BEEN A REALTOR FOR 30 SOMETHING, 33 YEARS, BUT I HAVE LIVED ON WILLOW FOR 45. AND THE TRAFFIC CAN BACK UP AS FAR AS TWO BLOCKS AT THE PLATT LIGHT. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: NEXT SPEAKER. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS RAIN GO U PARKER AND I LIVE THREE AND A HALF BLOCKS FROM THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT SITE AT 413 SOUTH WILLOW. FIRST OF ALL, I WANT TO THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SERVICE. YOU HAVE A TOUGH JOB. YOU HAVE TO DECIDE ABOUT PROJECTS THAT COULD GO FORWAR AND HELP DEVELOP TAMPA, BUT YOU ALSO HAVE TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION SAFETY CONCERNS, WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE COMMUNITY. AS MY FELLOW NEIGHBORS HAVE ALREADY ELOQUENTLY SPOKEN TO YOU ABOUT, AND VALIDLY SO, THE DENSITY OF WILLOW HAS BECOME OVERWHELMING. AND THE INFRASTRUCTURE SIMPLY HAS NOT KEPT UP WITH THE POPULATION AND THE TRAFFIC THAT IS INCREASED ON WILLOW THUS FAR. LET ME SPEAK TO YOU IN VERY REAL TERMS. WILLOW HAS BECOME A RACETRACK. ON A PERSONAL NOTE, I CANNOT EVEN LET MY TWO MINOR CHILDREN CROSS WILLOW, A RESIDENTIAL STREET, WITHOUT FEAR OF SOME CAR RACING DOWN. NOW, WILLOW HAS BECOME POPULAR WITH THE ADVANCEMENT OF HYDE PARK VILLAGE AND THE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS FANTASTIC. OUR SCHOOLS, OUR NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE BECOME VERY POPULAR AS WELL. ALL GOOD THINGS. BUT AT SOME POINT, COUNCIL MEMBERS, WE LOOK TO YOU ALL FOR YOUR COUNSEL AND YOUR GUIDANCE IN PROTECTING OUR NEIGHBORHOODS AND PROTECTING US AND PROTECTING THE SAFETY OF OUR CHILDREN. IT IS FOR THESE REASONS, VERY REAL REASONS, VERY HUMAN REASONS, THE SAFETY OF OUR CHILDREN THAT I ASK YOU PLEASE, PLEASE CONSIDER NOT APPROVING THE REZONING. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCILMAN. I'M ANGELA DUCOS AND I AM AWAITING MY THREE MINUTES. I AM GOING TO DONATE TO THIS GENTLEMAN RATE HERE, KEN POTTER. >>ORLANDO GUDES: IS THAT A SPEAKER WAIVER FORM, MA'AM? >> YES. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT. >>MARTIN SHELBY: IF YOU CAN GIVE THAT TO THE STAFF DOWNSTAIRS. AND THAT'S AN EXTRA MINUTE FOR THE GENTLEMAN HONOR IS GOING TO SPEAK NEXT FOR A TOTAL OF FOUR MINUTES. REMEMBER WHEN YOU SIGN A SPEAKER WAIVER FORM, THAT DONATES, YOU WAIVE THE THREE MINUTES AND DONATE ONE OF THOSE MINUTES, ONE OF THOSE MINUTES TO THE SPEAKER. SO IF SEVEN PEOPLE DONATE YOU CAN GET A MAXIMUM OF TEN BUT AGAIN IT'S ONLY ONE MINUTES PER PERSON TO WAIVE THEIR THREE. THANK YOU. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL. I THINK IT'S GOOD NEWS FOR EVERYONE THAT I WON'T EVEN USE THE FOUR MINUTES. MY NAME IS TIMOTHY CAM POTTER. I WILL MOVE IT THIS WAY. I HAVE A PowerPoint TO MAKE THIS BRIEF SO I CAN BE CONCISE. I LIVE AT 407 SOUTH NEW PORT, 26 YEAR RESIDENT, AND I AM SPEAKING IN OPPOSITION TO THE PLAN AMENDMENT. I AM ALSO A BOARD MEMBER ON THE SPANISH CREEK CIVIC ASSOCIATION. THE POINT I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE, I THINK THE PLANNING COMMISSIONERS REPORT DATED 4-12 IMPORTANT INCONSISTENCIES WITH- THE IMAGINE 2040 TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. AND THOSE INCONSISTENCIES SPECIFICALLY DEMONSTRATED IN THIS MEMORANDUM, WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THE -- AS THE AGENDA ITEM, PAGE 24 OF THAT DOCUMENT, GOES INTO SOME OF THE CRITERIA THAT WOULD CREATE A RECOMMENDATION FOR A CHANGE. AND IN B, YOU CAN SEE THAT THE SUBJECT SITE IS WITHIN 1320 FEET, QUARTER MILE OF A DESIGNATED TRANSPORT STATION, OR DESIGNATED TRANSPORT CORRIDOR. IT WAS HIGHLIGHTED THAT THIS SITE IS NOT WITHIN A QUARTER MILE OF A DESIGNATED TRANSIT CORRIDOR. NOW, IT IS WITHIN ABOUT 1100 FEET OF A HEART BUS STOP ON PLATT, BUT I THINK THAT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEET THE SPIRIT OF CHANGING THE 2040 PLAN IN THAT GROWTH AND DENSITY SHOULD BE FOCUSED AROUND TRANSIT CORRIDORS. BUT IN ADDITION TO THAT, ITEM C, THE PLANNING COMMISSION, URBAN PLANNER, FELT THAT THIS ITEM WAS NOT APPLICABLE, AND I DISAGREE. I BELIEVE IT IS APPLICABLE. IT STATES THAT THE SUBJECT PARCEL IS LOCATED ADJACENT TO A PARCEL, WHICH HAS LAND USE CERTIFICATES OF R-6 OR R-10. THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED WITHIN 660 FEET, 8th OF A MILE, OF THE DESIGNATED TRANSPORT STATION OR DESIGNATED TRANSIT CORRIDOR. THAT IS NOT THE CASE. SO IT IS NEXT TO AN R-10. THERE'S IN A QUESTION ABOUT THAT. IT IS ADJACENT TO 8-10 LOTS. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT 660 FEET WITHIN THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT. ANOTHER ITEM I WANTED TO BRING UP THAT IS ALSO IN THIS DOCUMENT IS THE ADEQUATE FACILITIES ANALYSIS THAT WAS PREPARED BY MATTHEW PLEASANT. IT'S ALSO ATTACHED TO THIS AGENDA. AND IT SHOWS HERE THAT IN HIS NOTES, HE SAID THAT THE THREE SCHOOLS SERVICING THIS LOT, THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, ARE CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE ADEQUATE CAPACITY FOR THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT. SO RIGHT THERE IN THE DOCUMENTATION IT SAYS THAT THE SCHOOLS ARE AT CAPACITY, DEVELOPMENT IS ADDING DIVERSITY WOULD TAX THE SCHOOLS, AND THEY WOULD BE OVER CAPACITY. SO FOR THOSE TWO REASONS, I THINK THOSE WEREN'T HIGHLIGHTED. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION WAS ALL ABOUT HOW IT DOES MEET THE PLANNING GUIDELINES, AND THERE WAS NO MENTION OF HOW IT DOESN'T. SO I THINK THOSE ARE TWO IMPORTANT AREAS. FINALLY I WOULD LIKE TO BE SAY IN THE PREVIOUS MEETING IN APRIL THERE WAS A LOT OF SLIDES AND PRESENTATIONS, PICTURES OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND SHOWING APARTMENTS. I LIVE A BLOCK AWAY. IT LOOKED LIKE I LIVE IN APARTMENT CITY. AND I THINK THAT WAS A TRUE MISREPRESENTATION OF THIS AREA. AND QUITE FRANKLY, WE WOULD HAVE INVITED THE COUNCIL DOWN, THE PETITIONER, TO SPEAK WITH US AT OUR ASSOCIATION. WE WOULD HAVE TAKEN THE COUNCIL TO THE PROPERTY ITSELF SO HE COULD HAVE SEEN THE PROPERTY AND SEEN THAT IT'S ACTUALLY A BUNGALOW. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. >> I'M SORRY? >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. >> TIME IS UP? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, SIR. GOES QUICK. >> GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS SANDY COUCH. AND I LIVE AT 603 SOUTH ORLEANS AVENUE. AND I'M HERE TO OPPOSE THE ZONING CHANGES. IN APRIL, COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER HAD ASKED MR. MICHELINI TO REACH OUT TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND RESIDENTS, THE AFFECTED NEIGHBORHOODS TO HAVE A DIALOGUE, PERHAPS EDUCATE US AND HAVE MORE OF AN EXCHANGE OF WHAT WAS TO HAPPEN. THAT WAS TOWARDS THE END OF THE MEETING IN APRIL. I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING, AND I NEVER HEARD FROM THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO MAKE THESE CHANGES. I HAVE ASKED PEOPLE IN THE FORUM AS WELL ANYBODY REACHED OUT TO THEM AND THE ANSWER WAS NO. SO I AM NOT SURE, BECAUSE I HEARD EARLIER MR. MICHELINI SAYING THAT HE HAD REACHED OUT, AND THERE HAS BEEN NO COMMUNICATION. ADDITIONALLY, THERE SEEMS TO BE A SUGGESTION THAT ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT MULTIFAMILY DWELLINGS SURROUNDING THIS SINGLE PIECE OF PROPERTY WHICH HAS A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING, THAT ALMOST MAKES IT LEGITIMATE TO TEAR DOWN THE BUNGALOW AND PUT DOWN A THREE-UNIT MULTIFAMILY DWELLING. AND I AM NOT SURE HOW THAT LEGITIMIZES IT. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF LAND. AND IT'S TO PUT A BIG PIECE OF -- ANOTHER ADDITIONAL CONCRETE STRUCTURE ON THIS SMALL PIECE OF LAND AND SQUEEZE IT IN, AND LITERALLY THAT'S WHAT IT IS, WE ARE SQUEEZING IN MORE PHYSICAL PROPERTY AND MORE DWELLINGS ON THIS BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF LAND. AND IT DOES TAKE AWAY FROM THE AESTHETICS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT IS GOING TO ADD TO THE CONGESTION OF THE TRAFFIC. AND FOR THESE REASONS I DO OPPOSE IT. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. >>MARTIN SHELBY: AGAIN, MR. CHAIRMAN. MARTIN SHELBY, CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY. JUST A REMINDER THAT THIS IS ONLY WHETHER THIS SHOULD BE FUTURE LAND USE MAP SHOULD BE CHANGED FROM RESIDENTIAL 10 TO RESIDENTIAL 35, AND WHETHER THIS CLASSIFICATION IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE PUBLIC. AND IT'S THE FACTOR ULTIMATELY. SO I WOULD JUST ASK THE PUBLIC TO REMEMBER THAT THE REZONING ISSUES WILL BE TAKEN UP IN ITEM NUMBER 3. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: MR. SHELBY, YOU SAID 35. R-10 TO R-20. >>MARTIN SHELBY: R-10 TO R-20. I AM SO SORRY. I DID SAY THAT. YOU ARE CORRECT. ORIGINALLY, THE ORIGINAL ORDINANCE WAS TO R-35, THE SUBSTITUTE. IT'S R-20 SO I STAND CORRECTED AND I APPRECIATE YOU BRINGING TO THAT TO MY ATTENTION. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: OKAY, MA'AM, YOU ARE UP NEXT. >> I'M KELLY McMULLIN, THE CURRENT PRESIDENT OF HISTORIC HYDE PARK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. THANKS FOR LETTING US SPEAK TODAY. I'LL START BY MENTIONING NEITHER THE APPLICANT NOR HIS AGENT HAS EVER REACHED OUT TO THE ASSOCIATION. SO I AM HERE TODAY TO REMIND ALL OF YOU OF THE POSITIVE IMPACT HYDE PARK HAS HAD ON THE CITY OF TAMPA. SEVERAL YEARS AGO, AT THE REQUEST OF THE FLORIDA SECRETARY OF STATE, USF RESEARCHERS PUBLISHED A REPORT TITLED THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN FLORIDA. THEY FOUND THAT A PRESERVATION PROGRAM GENERATES BILLIONS IN REVENUE THROUGH REHABILITATION, RESTORATION, AND HERITAGE TOURISM WHILE INCREASING THE CITY'S TAX BASE. OUR HISTORIC DISTRICTS DEFINITELY REFLECT A POSITIVE IMAGE OF TAMPA AND CERTAINLY PRESERVE OUR HISTORY. PRESERVATION ENHANCES REAL ESTATE VALUES, FOSTERS LOCAL BUSINESSES, AND KEEPS MAIN STREETS ECONOMICALLY VIABLE. IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING HERITAGE TOURISM IS A TRUE ECONOMIC SOURCE. HHPA GOAL THIS YEAR WITH IS STOW PROMOTE PRESERVATION BY EXPANDING OUR LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT. APPLICATIONS ARE SUBMITTED AND THE WHEELS OF GOVERNMENT ARE CHURNING CURRENTLY REGARDING THIS EFFORT. WE'LL APPRECIATE YOUR SUBSTITUTE SUPPORT AND LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THE HPC ON THISSEN DEFENSE FOR THE BENEFIT OF TAMPA. REGARDING THE ARGUMENT FOR REPEATING THE STYLE OF SOME NEARBY HOUSING BUILT 20 YEARS AGO, I WOULD LIKE TO REFER YOU AND OUR PLANNING COMMISSION TO THE ALBERT EINSTEIN QUOTE FOUND AT THE BEGINNING OF CHAPTER 8 IN THE COMP PLAN. I THINK THAT THE PROBLEMS THAT WE HAVE CREATED AS A RESULT OF OUR THINKING SO FAR CANNOT BE SOLVED BY THINKING THE WAY WE DID WHEN WE CREATED THEM. WE HOPE THAT WHAT YOU ARE HEARING TODAY COMPELS TO YOU STAND AGAINST THIS APPLICATION FOR A CHANGE IN LAND USE. ULTIMATELY LEADING TO THE DEMOLITION OF A CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE, INCREASED DENSITY AND THE DISRUPTION OF THIS HIS FORK NEIGHBORHOOD. YOUR OPPOSITION IS A SIGNIFICANT TO US THAT YOU TRULY RESPECT THE PRESERVATION AND HISTORICAL CHARACTER OF HYDE PARK. LASTLY, AGAIN, I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION NEITHER THE APPLICANT NOR HIS AGENT HAVE COMMUNICATED WITH HHPNA. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, MA'AM. NEXT SPEAKER. >> HELLO. I'M LEAH CARD IN, 311 SITE DELAWARE AVENUE. I AM ALSO THE CURRENT VICE PRESIDENT OF HYDE PARK CIVIC ASSOCIATION AND I WOULD LIKE TO ECHO WHAT KELLY JUST SAID WHICH IS THAT MR. MICHELINI HAS NOT REACHED OUT TO US OR ANYBODY ON OUR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION BOARD, SO WE CAN ACTUALLY GO BACK AND FOLLOW UP ON THAT BUT THAT OUTREACH HAS NOT HAPPENED SO FAR. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: JUST A QUICK QUESTION, MR. CHAIRMAN. IS THIS HOUSE AT 413 SOUTH WILLOW WITHIN THE SPANISH TOWN CREEK GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDARY? >> IT IS. >>: THANK YOU. CONTINUES. >> SO I MOVED INTO MY HOUSE ON 311 SOUTH DELAWARE, WHICH IS ABOUT TWO BLOCKS FROM THE HOUSE THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, IN 2006. AND I MOVED IN BECAUSE I LOVED THE HISTORIC HOUSE AND THE FEEL OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S A 1923 HOUSE, AND PRIOR TO ME MOVING IN, IT WAS ACTUALLY BEING LIVED IN BY A FRAT HOUSE, I THINK. SO THE NEIGHBORS WERE SO HAPPY WHEN WE MOVED IN. EVERYBODY CAME OVER AND BROUGHT DISHES AND EVERYTHING ELSE AND WE COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHY, BUT WE FOUND OUT THAT IT HAD BEEN RENTED OUT AS A FRAT HOUSE. SO I AM VERY FOCUSED ON MAKING SURE WE PRESERVE THE LOCAL HISTORIC AREA, AND ONCE THE HOUSE IN QUESTION IS ACTUALLY A CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE, AS WE LOOK TO EXPAND THE LOCAL HISTORIC AREA, SO WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO IS DEMOLISH A CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE AND PUT IN PLACE A MULTI-UNIT APARTMENT. IT SEEMS LIKE PUTTING THREE UNITS ON THAT TINY AREA IS NOT GOING TO FIT. AND THEN MY LAST POINT IS THAT THE SCHOOLS ARE ALREADY AT CAPACITY. I KNOW THAT THERE WAS INFORMATION FROM THE SCHOOLS. THE RESULT WAS THAT THE SCHOOLS ARE CURRENTLY AT CAPACITY. FOR ALL OF THESE REASONS I AM ASKING YOU TO OPPOSE THE LAND USE. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. >> CAN YOU ALL SEE THE ELMO? >> GOOD EVENING. I'M CINDY TAMINO. I LIVE AT 604 SOUTH OREGON. I RELINQUISH MY TIME TO PAT TOMINO. HERE IS THE DOCUMENTATION. OH, THERE IT IS. YOU GOT IT. >>MARTIN SHELBY: IF YOU CAN HAND THAT TO STAFF WHEN YOU ARE DONE. INGS AND MR. TOMINO THEN GETS FOUR MINUTES. >> THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU AND GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS PATRICK TOMINO, 604 SOUTH OREGON AVENUE, WHICH IS A COUPLE BLOCKS FROM THE PROPOSAL. AND I AM GOING TO ADDRESS THE COMP PLANS, SPECIFICALLY WITH REGARD TO AREAS THAT I THINK ARE IN CONFLICT WITH THIS PROPOSAL. WHAT HAS BEEN PRESENTED BY STAFF AND THE PETITIONER IS REALLY VERY MACROSCOPIC SO I HAVE TRADE TO FOCUS ON MORE OF A MICROSCOPE. IF YOU LOOK AT THIS MAP, I AM NOT GOING TO SPEND SIMON IT, THE RED CIRCLE IS PRETTY MUCH THE HYDE PARK AREA. THE COLOR IS YELLOW AND JUST TO SAY THIS IS THE VISION MAP FROM THE COMP PLAN PAGE 3, THIS AREA IS CONSIDERED ESTABLISHED WITH IN A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN CURRENT DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS, SOME IN-FILL ANTICIPATED. FURTHERMORE, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE CITY PLANNING STRATEGY HERE, IN GOAL 2, IT SAYS PROTECT IS MUCH DETACHED NEIGHBORHOOD. I WILL TELL YOU, WE ARE A COMMUNITY, A HISTORIC COMMUNITY OF HYDE PARK, AND THE. OF HOUSING IS SINGLE FAMILY. YES, THERE'S MULTIFAMILY. WHAT WE DON'T WANT TO DO IS REPEAT THE PAST WHICH HAS BEEN INTRODUCED ALREADY. IN THE URBAN VILLAGE SECTION, IT STATES VILLAGES MAY SEE SUBSTANTIAL GROWTH IN CHANGE, CHANNEL DISTRICT, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT IS CALLED FOR IN THEIR SECONDARY PLAN. OTHER URBAN VILLAGES WILL SEE ONLY MODEST CHANGE BECAUSE THEIR SECONDARY PLANS DO NOT CALL FOR A LOT OF GROWTH AND CHANGE. FOR EXAMPLE, DAVIS ISLANDS IN HYDE PARK. I WOULD SHUTR TO THINK WE ARE CONSIDERED PART OF THE SAME TYPE OF PLANNING, OF THE, QUOTE, CENTRAL DISTRICT AND THAT'S WHY THERE ARE SPECIFICATIONS HERE. UNDER HISTORIC PRESERVATION, ENCOURAGE RESIDENTS AND HOMEOWNERS TO WORK WITH THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION AGENCIES TO MAINTAIN OLDER HOUSING STOCK AND CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT STRUCTURES. I UNDERSTAND THIS ISN'T IN THE LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT. THAT HOUSE IS HISTORIC AND IT'S VERY CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT AS PART OF WHAT WAS KNOWN AS DOBYVILLE, AN AREA THAT WAS MARGINALIZED HISTORICALLY BY THE CITY. UNDER LOOKING AT NEW DEVELOPMENT, IT DOES NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE HISTORIC RESOURCE, FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT REQUESTS, LAND USE POLICY 19, I'M SUBMITTING THIS FOR THE RECORD. REVIEW DEVELOPMENT REQUESTS, MAY HAVE ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE HISTORIC CHARACTER OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT BUILDING SITE OR OBJECT, INCLUDING THOSE REQUESTS ALONG THE PERIPHERY OF A HISTORIC DISTRICT, DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE DEVELOPMENT IS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO HISTORIC RESOURCES, AND IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THOSE RESOURCES CAN HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE HISTORIC INTEGRITY. VERY SPECIFIC TARGET AREA. SO YOU HAVE PLENTY OF CRITERIA IN THE COMP PLAN TO NOT ACCEPT THIS PROPOSAL. AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, THIS DEFINITELY COMPROMISES THE PERIPHERY OF THE LOCAL DISTRICT AND I RECOMMEND YOU DENYING THIS LAND USE REQUEST. AS WITH THE INCONSISTENCIES IN THE COMP PLAN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. >> MY NAME IS AARON ALLBREATH, 1107 WEST HORATIO STREET. I'M ALSO THE CURRENTS PRESIDENT OF HYDE PARK SPANISH CREEK AND WILL REITERATE THE OTHER TWO NEIGHBORHOOD REPRESENTATIVES AND OFFICERS THAT WERE HERE AND MENTION THAT WE HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED BY THE PETITIONER OR HIS REPRESENTATIVES. SPANISH TOWN CREEK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS AN ANTI-DEVELOPMENT, THAT'S AN IMPORTANT POINT. WE SIMPLY REQUEST DEVELOPMENT RESPECTING THE NATURE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND ABIDE BUILT SCOPE OF THE CITY COMP PLAN AND THAT SIGNIFICANT CHANGES NEED TO BE COMPELLING. THIS REQUEST IS NOT COMPELLING. THE LAND USE ISN'T CONSISTENT WITH SURROUNDING USES AND THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. CHAINING THE LAND USE TO ALLOW FOR MULTIFAMILY HOUSING DOES NOT FIT INTO THE CHARACTER AND DENSITY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SPANISH CREEK IS A WALKABLE NEIGHBORHOOD, WITH FRONT FACING HOUSES SIMILAR TO OUR SISTER NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS AND THE LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT. LAND USE CHANGING A NEIGHBORHOOD FROM LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO HIGH DENSITY MULTIFAMILY WHEN THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS SURROUNDED BY OTHER SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USES IS INCONSISTENT WITH SURROUNDING USES AND SETS AN UNDESIRED PRECEDENT. SPEAKING OF THE SPECIFICS, LAND USE OBJECTIVE 2 STATES THAT IT'S TO PROTECT SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED NEIGHBORHOODS. HYDE PARK SPANISH TOWN CREEK IS IDENTIFIED AS AN URBAN VILLAGE MEANING VILLAGES WILL ONLY SEE MODEST CHANGE BECAUSE THEIR SECONDARY PLANS DON'T CALL FOR A LOT OF GROWTH AND CHANGES. LAND USE POLICY 16.1.2, SUPPORT HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN NEIGHBORHOODS. LAND USE POLICY 16.1.6, ENCOURAGE RESIDENTS AND HOMEOWNERS TO WORK WITHIN THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION AGENCY TO MAINTAIN OLDER HOUSING STOCK AND CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT STRUCTURE. LAND USE POLICY 19.1.1 PROTECT THE CHARACTER OF HISTORIC DISTRICTS, HYDE PARK SPANISH TOWN CREEK IS IN THE NATIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT BY ADOPTING LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS THAT ENSURE NEW DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T ADVERSELY AFFECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE HISTORIC RESOURCES. FINALLY, LAND USE POLICY 19.1.2 REVIEW DEVELOPMENT REQUESTS THAT MAY HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE HISTORIC CHARACTER OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICT. REGARDING THOSE THREE LAND USE POLICIES, HYDE PARK SPANISH TOWN CREEK AND THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION IS COVERED UNDER THE NATIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT AS I MENTIONED, AND IS ONE BLOCK OFF OF THE LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICT. THIS ACTUALLY APPLICATION FOR THE LOCAL HISTORIC EXPANSION CURRENTLY IS IN FRONT OF THE HPC AND IN PROCESS AND WILL BE LIKELY VOTED NON2021, THIS CALENDAR YEAR AT THE PUBLIC COMMENT SECTION. THIS IS ALREADY AN ESTABLISHED AREA, BLOCKS AWAY FROM A HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT TAMPA DOBYVILLE. AND AS DEFINED BUILT CITY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE CURRENT DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN PLANNED OR IDENTIFIED. THIS RENDERS REQUEST FOR REZONING NULL AND THE LAND USE ISSUE, THIS ISSUE IS NOT QUASI-JUDICIAL MEANING IT'S NOT WHAT CAN BE DONE, IT'S ABOUT WHAT SHOULD BE DONE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. >> THANK YOU. HOW MANY MORE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM, MS. ROSARIO? >>AILEEN ROSARIO: WE HAVE ONE, TWO, THREE -- FIVE MORE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. >>AILEEN ROSARIO: YOU'RE WELCOME. >> CAN YOU HEAR ME? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, SIR. >> MY NAME IS REESE CIRCLE. I LIVE AT 36712 SOUTH WILLOW AVENUE AND THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF HYDE PARK SPANISH TOWN CREEK CIVIC ASSOCIATION AND IMMEDIATE PAST PRESIDENT. AND THANK YOU FOR HEARING ME. JUST LIKE I PROVIDED A FEW POINTS AS TO TO WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER DENK DENYING THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST. NUMBER ONE, AS YOU HAVE HEARD, ALL THREE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS IN HYDE PARK, THERE ARE THREE OPPOSED THE REQUEST. THIS IS ONE BLOCK AWAY FROM THE LOCAL HISTORIC AREA, ONE BLOCK AWAY FROM DOBYVILLE, AND IS IN THE NATIONAL HISTORIC AREA, AND BEING IN A NATIONAL HISTORIC AREA SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY. NUMBER THREE, DESPITE BEING DIRECTLY ASKED BY COUNCIL IN APRIL'S MEETING, NONE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS HAVE HEARD FROM THE COUNSELOR, BUT I DO HAVE SOME INFORMAION ON THAT. APPARENTLY THEY DID REACH OUT TO A RESIDENT LAST EVENING, AND NONE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS. NUMBER 4, DURING THE APRIL MEETING, AND WHAT WAS REITERATED DURING THIS MEETING, MR. MICHELINI REFERRED TO THE AREA AROUND THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION AS AND WE SAW A LOT OF HIGH DENSITY OR HIGHER DENSITY PROPERTIES AROUND THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION, AGAIN CALLING IT THE DONUT. I WANT TO STATE THAT THE DONUT DOES NOT REPRESENT THIS AREA OF HYDE PARK OR HYDE PARK% GENERALLY. NUMBER 5, IT IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE 2040 COMP PLAN USE PLAN FOR THIS AREA IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS: THIS IS AN ESTABLISHED AREA, MEANING NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGE HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED. GOAL NUMBER 2 STATES THAT THE DESIRE TO PROTECT IS MUCH DETACHED NEIGHBORHOODS. POLICY 16 .1.2 STATES THAT THERE SHOULD BE SUPPORT FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN NEIGHBORHOODS. POLICY 16.1.6 STATES TO ENCOURAGE RESIDENTS AND HOMEOWNERS TO WORK WITH HISTORIC PRESERVATION AGENCIES TO MAINTAIN OLDER HOUSING STOCK AND CULTURAL SIGNIFICANTLY SIGNIFICANT STRUCTURES. POLICY 19.1.1 STATES TO PROTECT THE CHARACTER OF HISTORIC DISTRICTS BY ADOPTING LAND USE REGULATIONS, ENSURE NEW DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T ADVERSELY AFFECT THE INTEGRITY OF HISTORIC RESOURCES. FINALLY, 19.1.2, STATES THAT TO REVIEW DEVELOPMENT REQUESTS MAY HAVE ADVERSE EFFECT ON HISTORIC CHARACTER OF HOMES IN HISTORIC DISTRICT. AGAIN THIS IS NATIONAL AND A BLOCK AWAY FROM LOCAL. MY SIXTH POINT, I AM TRYING TO GO QUICKLY, THE CITY HAS BENEFITED GREATLY FROM THE LOCAL HISTORIC AREA, AND AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED THE LOCAL HISTORIC AREA IS BEING HEARD TO BE EXPANDED WHICH WOULD INCLUDE THIS PROPERTY. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MEMBERS. I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN. MY NAME IS INTHA, 421 SOUTH ORLEANS AVENUE AROUND THE CORNER FROM THE PROPERTY. I HAVE LIVED IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD FOR 37 YEARS. AND I HAVE BECOME QUITE FOND OF HISTORY AND ALL THE QUIRKY LITTLE FUN BEAUTIFUL STORIES THAT WERE TOLD. FOR EXAMPLE, THE BUNGALOW THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT ON WILLOW AND HORATIO WAS ORIGINALLY OWNED BY AN OLD TAMPA FAMILY THAT OWNED A SUPERMARKET. FORGIVE ME IN I AM NOT KNOWING THE NAME OF THEM, BUT I WAS TOLD BY ONE OF THE OWNERS THAT HE ORIGINALLY OWNED THE PROPERTY. I HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN LOOKING FOR SOMEONE THAT WOULD HAVE THE PROPERTY SO THAT WE COULD MOVE THAT BUNGALOW INSTEAD OF DEMOLISH IT. IT'S REALLY QUITE IN GOOD SHAPE. I'M IN REAL ESTATE AND I HAVE ACTUALLY HAD SOME PEOPLE THAT ARE INTERESTED IN PURCHASING IT. THERE'S A BIG DEMAND FOR SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES RIGHT NOW. I DON'T THINK THAT PUTTING UP THREE UNITS IS GOING TO INCREASE MY PROPERTY VALUES, AND ALSO THE FACT THAT THIS IS NOT THE NEIGHBORHOOD PAST SOHO WHERE YOU HAVE THE LAYERED TOWNHOMES, AND THEY AE QUITE BEAUTIFUL BUT THEY REALLY DON'T FIT IN WITH THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND I DON'T THINK I LIVE IN DOBYVILLE. I THINK I LIVE IN HYDE PARK EVEN THOUGH I WAS RESPONSIBLE PARTIALLY FOR GETTING THE DOBYVILLE SIGN RESURRECTED UP ON WILLOW AND PLATT STREET. SO I JUST DON'T LIKE THE TRAFFIC FLOW ON WILLOW. IT'S AWFUL. IT'S LIKE ZIGZAG CONSTANTLY, AND IT'S NOT SAFE. SO I THINK WE NEED TO BE THINKING MORE OF THE FUTURE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THE NEIGHBORHOOD-LIKE FEEL, NOT TRYING TO MAKE IT INTO SOMETHING THAT IT'S REALLY NOT. THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES WERE BUILT AT A TIME WHEN WE NEEDED DEVELOPMENT IN HYDE PARK. WE WERE DESPERATE FOR IT. I REMEMBER WHEN HYDE PARK WAS A CRACK NEIGHBORHOOD. I HAVE HAD THREE CARS STOLEN FROM THAT NEIGHBORHOOD. I MEAN, I HAVE REALLY SUFFERED THROUGH A LOT OF THINGS AS A PIONEER. SO NOW WE ARE AT A PLACE WHERE WE REALLY WANT TO GO BACK IN TIME AND KEEP THAT NEIGHBORHOOD FEELING THAT HAS REALLY MADE HYDE PARK WHAT IT IS TODAY. AGAIN. SO THANK YOU. AND I HOPE I DO NOT AGREE WITH THE LAND USE CHANGE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: IF ANYONE IS LOGGED OFF ITEM NUMBER 13, THAT WAS CONTINUED TILL SEPTEMBER 23rd. SO IF YOU ARE LOGGED ON, YOU CAN LOG OFF. THAT WILL NOT BE HEARD TONIGHT. THANK YOU. WE CAN CONTINUE WITH ITEM 27. NEXT SPEAKER. YES MA'AM. STATE YOUR NAME. AND BEGIN. >> MY NAME IS JUDY RICHMOND. AND I LIVE AT 1104 WEST HORATIO STREET. I HAVE LIVED IN MY HOUSE FOR 37 YEARS, AND I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF CHANGES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD SINCE I HAVE LIVED THERE. AS OTHER PEOPLE HAVE MENTIONED, THERE WERE A LOT OF UNDESIRABLE ELEMENTS, BUT THOSE -- I GUESS YOU COULD SAY GONE AWAY. MOST OF THEM HAVE GONE AWAY. AND I AM NOT SAYING THAT THE PROPOSAL WILL BRING BACK UNDESIRABLE ELEMENTS, BUT WE ARE TRYING TO KEEP THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS A WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE. AND I GO BY THIS CORNER ALMOST EVERY DAY. I HAVE A DOG. I WALK MY DOG. AND IT'S OFTEN VERY DIFFICULT TO EVEN CROSS THE STREET THERE. ANOTHER CONCERN OF MINE IS PARKING. THERE ARE MANY STREETS IN OUR AREA THAT ARE GUMMED UP WITH EXTRA AND EXCESS PARKING BECAUSE THERE'S NOT ENOUGH PARKING ALLOWANCE MADE FOR THE PROPERTIES WHEN THEY ARE BEING BUILT. AND SO THE PEOPLE ARE FORCED TO PARK ON THE STREET, AND OFTEN THIS RESULTS IN GARBAGE TRUCKS AND SCHOOL BUSES AND OTHER TYPES OF LARGE VEHICLES HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME T NEGOTIATE THE STREETS. SO I WOULD LIKE YOU TO TAKE THOSE THINGS INTO CONSIDERATION AND VOTE NO ON THIS PROPOSAL. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, MA'AM. >> MY NAME IS DAVID LORIC, A RES DEBT AT 6301 SOUTH WILLOW ONE BLOCK SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. I PURCHASED THAT HOME 40 YEARS AGO. MANY, MANY YEARS AGO, THERE WERE A NUMBER OF HEARINGS SIMILAR TO THIS ONE WHERE WE WERE LOOKING AT SEVERAL SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES THAT WERE FACING DEMOLITION TO PUT UP MULTIFAMILY. IT'S BEEN MANY, MANY YEARS SINCE WE HAVE HAD TO ENDURE SOMETHING LIKE THIS. AND I WAS VERY SURPRISED AT THE APRIL HEARING, AND WHEN I LOOKED AT THE DOCUMENTS ON THIS PETITION, AND I SAW THE SITE PLAN WHERE IT HAD BEEN REDUCED TO FOUR TOWNHOUSES, AND THEN STAFF REPORTING THREE TOWNHOUSES, THE IDEA OF THREE TOWNHOUSES GOING ON A SINGLE-FAMILY LOT CAUSED ME TO WANT TO LOOK AT THE PLANNING MAP FOR THE ENTIRE AREA BORDERED BUILT CROSSTOWN, SWANN, PLATT, AND BOULEVARD, AND I COULDN'T FIND A SINGLE-FAMILY, SMALL CITY LOT WITH MULTIFAMILY BUILT ON IT. NOW, WE KNOW THERE ARE ORIGINAL UNITS. THERE'S TWO WITHIN TWO BLOCKS OF THIS PROPERTY. WHERE ORIGINALLY THERE WAS A SMALL UNIT BUILT BEHIND THE LARGE ONE, BUT THEY WERE DETACHED. THEY WEREN'T TOWNHOUSES. NOW, WITHIN THE LAND USE PLAN, THE SECTION ON HYDE PARK GOALS, PROVIDES SOME GUIDANCE IN THIS AREA. AND IT SPECIFIES THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO PROVIDE FOR PRESERVING THE HISTORIC CHARACTER OF THE AREA. AND THAT THE DESIGN SHOULD BE DONE WITH KEEPING IN MIND THE UNIQUE AREA WHICH WILL CREATE A DISTINCT IMAGE IN THE MIND OF LOCAL CITIZENS AND VISITORS, WITH EMPHASIS ON RESTORATION AND RENOVATION TO EXISTING RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES. NOW, THE PROPERTY ON THIS SITE WILL LIKELY BE DEMOED. IT'S NOT PROTECTED, ALTHOUGH IT IS A CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE, BUT I APPRECIATE THAT COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER ASKED FOR A VIEW TO THE NORTHWEST. I DID THE SAME THING ON STREET VIEW. I WANTED TO TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THAT PROPERTY, AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. THIS IS A MAJOR ARTERY FOR PEOPLE COMING AND GOING THROUGH HYDE PARK. IT'S WELL SEEN. AND IT'S GOING TO BE DIFFICULT FOR SOMEONE TO GO TO HYDE PARK VILLAGE AND HAVE THIS IMAGE OF WHAT HYDE PARK IS SUPPOSED TO BEING, AND THEN DRIVE DOWN WILLOW AVENUE IF IT WAS NOTHING BUT A CANYON OF TOWNHOUSES LOOKING LIKE THEY WERE DRIVING THROUGH THE PARKING LOT AT HYDE PARK APARTMENTS. I THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT THIS CURRENT ZONING BE RETAINED AND ESPECIALLY SINCE THERE'S THREE SUBPOENA SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES ON THIS BLOCK TO THE NORTH THAT WILL BE FACING THIS -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU >>AILEEN ROSARIO: MY APOLOGIES. THAT IS OUR LAST GUEST SPEAKING ON THIS ITEM. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. HOW MANY DO WE HAVE REGISTERED,% MADAM CLERK? >> WE HAVE NINE BUT ONLY TWO REGISTERED, THE OTHER ONE APPEARED IN PERSON. >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE HAVE TWO? ALL RIGHT. LET'S ROLL. >> HELLO. CAN YOU HEAR ME? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, WE CAN. >> GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS ELIZABETH -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: ONE SECOND. ONE SECOND. LET'S SWEAR YOU IN. >> I'M SO SORRY. >>ORLANDO GUDES: RAISE YOUR HAND. SHE'S GOING TO SWEAR YOU IN. I'M SORRY. YOU CAN CONTINUE. >>MARTIN SHELBY: I'M SORRY. MY APOLOGIES. >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU CAN CONTINUE MA'AM. WE ARE SORRY. >> OKAY, THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS ELIZABETH CARPENTER, I LIVE ON THE 400 BLOCK OF ORLEANS ACROSS THE ALLEY FROM THIS PROPERTY. I WANTED TO MAKE THE POINT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN SHOWING PICTURES OF THE TOWNHOMES TO THE EAST AND THE SOUTH, BUT YOU HAVE NOT BEEN SHOWN THE SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES THAT ARE DIRECTLY ADJACENT TO THE PROPERTY. THE ENTIRE EAST SIDE OF THE 400 BLOCK OF ORLEANS, THE PROPERTY IS ALSO THE PROPERTY DIRECTLY TO THE WEST ON HORATIO, AND SEVERAL PROPERTIES NORTH ON WILLOW ARE SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES. THERE ARE 21 SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES ON THE 400 BLOCK ALONE. YOU HAVE BEEN LED TO BELIEVE THAT WE ARE A NEIGHBORHOOD OF TOWNHOMES WHEN IN FACT THEY ARE THE EXCEPTION TO THE RULE. HYDE PARK IS NOT TOWNHOMES, IT'S OUR HISTORIC SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES, OUR BEAUTIFUL YARDS, OUR WALKABILITY, AND OUR NEIGHBORHOOD'S WONDERFUL PERSONALITY. THE DESIRABILITY OF OUR HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD HAS CAUSED SIGNIFICANT ISSUES AS WE HAVE MODERNIZED. OUR INFRASTRUCTURE WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR HIGH DENSITY LIVING. OUR STREETS ARE NARROW. AND NOT FOR SUSTAINED EVEN MODERATE TRAFFIC. DRAINAGE IS ALREADY INADEQUATE. IN FACT, YOU EARLIER ON SAW THE PICTURE OF THE HOLE IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR STREET THAT DEVELOPS EVERY SIX MONTHS OR SO. OUR SCHOOLS ARE AT CAPACITY. PARKING IS A CONSTANT STRUGGLE. SANITATION VEHICLES STRUGGLE TO NAVIGATE OUR STREETS AND IT HAS BECOME DANGEROUS AT TIMES FOR OUR PEDESTRIANS. INCREASING OUR DENSITY IS AT THE ROOT OF ALL OF OUR PROBLEMS AND FURTHER INCREASING DENSITY WILL ONLY WORSEN THESE ISSUES. PUTTING IN A SERIES OF MODERN COOKIE CUTTER TOWNHOMES WILL ONLY DESTROY THE VERY PERSONALITY THAT MAKES OUR NEIGHBORHOODS DESIRABLE IN THE FIRST PLACE AND WILL DIRECTLY AND NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE SURROUNDING HOMES WHICH SHARE THE PARKING AREAS, NARROW STREETS AND PIPING WITH THIS PROPERTY. THESE REQUESTED CHANGES ARE CERTAINLY AND ABSOLUTELY NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT YOU DENY THESE CHANGES. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >>THE CLERK: WE HAVE ANITA BUT WE CANNOT ELEVATE HER. SHE SPEAK THINGS IS A NONQUASI-ITEM? >>MARTIN SHELBY: I'M SORRY, SOMEBODY WHERE? >> SOMEBODY REGISTERED AND WE CANNOT ELEVATE THEM. >>MARTIN SHELBY: YOU MEAN JUST BY VOICE? >> CAN WE DO BY VOICE ON A NONQUASI-ITEM? >>MARTIN SHELBY: I BELIEVE THAT WOULD BE ACCEPTABLE IF THEY CAN IDENTIFY THEMSELVES, PLEASE. >> THIS IS ANITA, AND MY APOLOGIES FOR THE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES, BUT THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME SPEAK. CAN YOU HEAR ME OKAY? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: WHAT'S YOUR LAST NATE NAME, ANITA? >>MARTIN SHELBY: SPELL THAT? CERHEIJEN. AND THE FIRST NAME IS ANITA, ANIKA, WITH A K. >>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU CAN CONTINUE. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. SO MY NAME IS AKA, AND MY HUSBAND AND I LIVE WITH 2001 YOUNG CHILDREN AT 513 SOUTH ORLEANS AVENUE WHICH IS ONE OF THE FOUR SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES THAT PEOPLE HAVE REFERRED TO THAT UNFORTUNATELY IS NOT SHOWN IN MANY OF THESE PICTURES. THIS IS ALSO THE PROPERTY THAT WE LIVE IN, IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER OF THE PROPOSED BUILDING SITE, AND WE ARE OPPOSING THIS PLAN. MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE LIVED IN HYDE PARK FOR 20 YEARS, AND WE HAVE SEEN THE NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOP. WE DEFINITELY LOVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND WE HAVE A LOT OF CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN WELL DISCUSSED ALREADY BY THE SPEAKERS. SO I WOULD LIKE TO HONE IN ON THE QUALITY. WE HAVE A LOT OF CHILDREN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WALK THROUGH THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, GORY AS WELL AS WILSON, AND YOU SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE ON THE STREETS WALKING THEIR DOGS, BIKING, AND THE BEAUTY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND THAT'S WHY THEY MOVED HERE. UNFORTUNATELY, THE TRAFFIC HAS SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED AND MORE CONCERNING ARE TO ME ARE THE NUMBER OF CARS PARKING IN THE STREET, AS THE INFRASTRUCTURE AND THE PARKING, HAVE NOT BEEN DEVELOPED ACCORDINGLY. I ALSO TALK AS I WALK MY KIDS TO SCHOOL, BACK AND FORTH TO WORK, AND AS A PEDESTRIAN, IF A BIKE RIDER OR CAR DRIVER COMES ON HORATIO OR ANY OF THESE OTHER SIDE STREETS, YOU CANNOT SEE THE CAR DRIVERS. CANNOT SEE YOU OUTSIDE OF PARKED CARS. AND ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS ALREADY MENTIONED THAT, AND SHE IS ABSOLUTELY HITTING THE NAIL ON THE HEAD. YOU ALSO HAVE TO ZIGZAG YOUR WAY THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME THAT A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IS GOING TO BE HAPPENING, UNFORTUNATELY. GOING BACK TO THE -- NEVER SEEN SUCH A THING IN MY LIFE. IT IS DANGEROUS. MY LAST TOPIC IS WHEN I TRIED TO LEAVE FOR WORK IN THE MORNING OR WHEN I RETURN BACK, THE TRAFFIC ON SWANN, WILLOW AND SOUTH HOWARD, MAIN CONNECTOR STREETS, ARE VERY, VERY BUSY AND OFTEN THE CARS ARE BACKED UP, AND -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, MA'AM. >> THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: OUR LAST SPEAKER REGISTERED? MADAM CLERK? >> THAT CONCLUDES REGISTERED SPEAKERS. >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE GO BACK TO MR. MICHELINI FOR REBUTTAL. >>MARTIN SHELBY: I'M SORRY, MR. CHAIRMAN, MARTIN SHELBY, CITY COUNCIL ATTORNEY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ANYBODY, STAFF OR ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, MR. MICHELINI'S REBUTTAL. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I HAVE THAT PENDING QUESTION TO JENNIFER, PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF, WHICH I THINK WE SHOULD PROBABLY HEAR FROM BEFORE WE HEAR REBUTTAL. >>JENNIFER MALONE: THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN DINGFELDER. I FOUND TWO EXAMPLES. I AM GOING TO PREFACE THIS. I DID NOT HAVE A LOT OF TIME. AND IT WAS VERY MUCH ON THE FLY. TO MEET ZONING CODE, AND THIS IS JUST WHAT WE SEE TODAY, 605 SOUTH NEWPORT, SOUTH OF THE SITE, AS FOUR UNITS ON IT AND YOU HAVE A 50-FOOT LOT. 401 SOUTH -- HAS FOUR UNITS AND 50 FAT LOT AS WELL TO THE EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO CLARIFY FOR THE RECORD THE SUBJECT SITE IS NOT LOCATED WITHIN AN URBAN VILLAGE. IT IS NOT IN THE HYDE PARK URBAN VILLAGE SO ANY GOALS RELATED TO HYDE PARK URBAN VILLAGE WOULD NOT APPLY TO THIS PROPERTY. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: JUST TO CLARIFY JENNIFER YOU DISAPPEARED. THERE YOU ARE. JUST TO CLARIFY, SO YOU TOOK A GOOD LOOK AT THAT ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND YOU ONLY FOUND TWO PARCELS WITH THAT KIND OF DENSITY, AND HOW FAR AWAY WERE THEY? >>JENNIFER MALONE: 411 SOUTH WILLOW IS ABOUT TWO BLOCKS AWAY FROM 605 SOUTH NEW PORT. AND THEN IT WAS ABOUT ONLY ONE BLOCK AWAY FROM 410 SOUTH EUCLID. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: AND YOU LOOKED, WHAT, A TEN BLOCK AREA OR FIVE-BLOCK AREA? >>JENNIFER MALONE: YES, AND TRYING TO IDENTIFY SUBJECT SITES THAT HAD RESIDENTIAL 20 FUTURE LAND USE IN THIS AREA. THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. OH, ONE OTHER QUESTION TO MR. MICHELINI. >>STEVE MICHELINI: YES, SIR, I'M HERE. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY. DID YOU HAVE ANY EXPERT -- TWO QUESTIONS. DID YOU HAVE ANY EXPERTS TO TESTIFY AS TO THE COMPATIBILITY, CONSISTENCY, ET CETERA, CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, OR JUST YOUR TESTIMONY TONIGHT? >>STEVE MICHELINI: NO, AT THIS TIME CITY STAFF AS WELL AS THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF AS WELL AS THE PLANNING COMMISSIONERS. THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS COMPATIBLE. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY. BUT YOU DON'T HAVE ANYBODY ELSE OTHER THAN THE CITY STAFF THAT YOU REFERRED TO. >>STEVE MICHELINI: WELL, WHEN YOU GET INTO THESE PROCESSES -- >>JOHN DINGFELDER: IT'S SORT OF LIKE A YES-OR-NO QUESTION. >>STEVE MICHELINI: I AM JUST SAYING THESE ARE YOUR EXPERTS AND YOU EITHER RELY ON THEM OR NOT. WE WERE REFOUGHTING THEM, WE WOULD HAVE BROUGHT SOMEBODY IN TO REFUTE THEIR EXPERT TESTIMONY. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: SPEAKING OF REFOUGHTING, YOU INDICATED IN YOUR INITIAL PRESENTATION THAT YOU REACHED OUT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND NOTHING HAPPENED. WE HAVE HEARD FROM THREE DIFFERENT NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS INCLUDING THE SUBJECT NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, SPANISH TOWN CREEK, AND NONE OF THEM HEARD FROM YOU. IS THAT CORRECT OR NOT? >>STEVE MICHELINI: WELL, I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE INVOLVED, BUT WE DID SEND OUT AN E-MAIL REQUESTING TO DISCUSS THIS ISSUE, AND THE ONLY -- AS A MATTER OF FACT, NO ONE HAS REACHED OUT TO US, BUT WE GOT A VERY US THE E-MAIL BACK SAYING UNLESS YOU WITHDRAW YOUR PETITION WE DON'T WANT TO MEET. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THAT WAS A NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION OR FROM A NEIGHBOR? >> THAT WAS FROM PAM CANELA. AND SHE DIDN'T RESPOND TO ME, SHE RESPONDED TO JENNIFER OVER AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY. THANK YOU, STEVE. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? >>STEVE MICHELINI: I HAVE A QUESTION IF I CAN OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF FOR JENNIFER MALONE. WHEN SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT 50-FOOT LOT, THIS IS NOT A 350-FOOT LOT. AND YOU HAVE A HIGH DENSITY ALL AROUND THIS. SO COMPARING US TO ONLY RESIDENTIAL 20 PUTS US IN A DISADVANTAGE. LET ME SHOW YOU THE MAP. THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE, ALTHOUGH IT HAS A ZONING NUMBER ON THERE. EVERYTHING YOU SEE IN BROWN IS RESIDENTIAL 35. WHAT YOU SEE HERE IS RESIDENTIAL 20. SO WHEN I SAID WE ARE THE HOLE IN THE DONUT, WE ARE SURROUNDED BY HIGHER DENSITY. WE ARE NOT INTRODUCING A HIGHER DENSITY DEVELOPMENT INTO THIS AREA. AND THE STAFF HAS ALREADY INDICATED TO US, AND I THINK THEY TESTIFIED TO YOU, THAT THIS WAS AN IDEAL TRANSITION FROM THE 35, FROM THE 20 TO THE 20 TO THE 35, AND THEN PREVIOUSLY I ASKED YOU IF I COULD PUT UP THE DISTRIBUTION, THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE OWNERSHIP, AND IF YOU WILL LOOK AT THESE -- AND I HAVE THE PHOTOGRAPHS TO TELL YOU HOW MANY UNITS ARE IN EACH OF THESE. THIS IS LESS OF A DENSE DEVELOPMENT THAN ANYTHING AROUND HERE, EITHER TO THE NORTH, WHICH IS FOUR UNITS ON THE SAME SIZE LOT, OVER HERE, I MEAN, I HAVE GOT THE PICTURES THAT TELL YOU HOW MANY UNITS. I WILL BE HAPPY TO PUT THOSE UP. THIS IS ON HORATIO. THOSE ARE EIGHT TOWNHOUSES. AND THIS IS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET TO THE SOUTH. EIGHT TOWNHOUSES. SO WHEN PEOPLE TALK ABOUT FACING SINGLE-FAMILY FACING A TOWNHOUSE, IT SIMPLY ISN'T ACCURATE. THESE ARE TEN HOUSES DIAGONALLY ACROSS THE STREET. SIX TOWNHOUSES DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET. FOUR APARTMENTS IMMEDIATELY TO THE NORTH. YOU KNOW, I AM SYMPATHETIC TO, AND AS I THINK YOU KNOW, IS PROTECTING A NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN THAT IS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE PROTECTED. I DON'T SEE HOW -- I DON'T SEE HOW ONE SINGLE LOT HERE, ONE PARCEL, SURROUNDED HERE BY TOWNHOUSES, HERE BY TOWNHOUSES, HERE BY TOWNHOUSES, AND HERE BY AN APARTMENT BUILDING THAT IS FOUR UNITS, I DON'T SEE HOW WE ARE INTRODUCING A NEW CONCEPT OR A NEW DENSITY OR HIGHER DENSITY INTO AN AREA THAT ALREADY HAS THIS DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. WE ARE NOT INTRODUCING SOMETHING NEW. I LISTENED VERY CAREFULLY TO ALL OF THE SPEAKERS THAT CAME BEFORE YOU, AND THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT RESPONSIBLE GROWTH. THIS IS RESPONSIBLE GROWTH. YOU HEARD JENNIFER MALONE TELL YOU THIS IS NOT PART OF THE HYDE PARK URBAN VILLAGE. SO ALL OF THAT TESTIMONY ABOUT PROTECTING THE HYDE PARK PLAN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS PARCEL. YOU HEARD A LOT OF TESTIMONY ABOUT A HISTORIC DISTRICT. THIS STRUCTURE HAS ALREADY BEEN DETERMINED BY THE CITY STAFF IS NOT CONTRIBUTING, NONHISTORIC AND CAN BE DEMOLISHED. I MEAN, WE WENT THROUGH THAT EXERCISE. YOU HEARD ABOUT TRAFFIC. TRAFFIC IS NOT PART OF THE EVALUATION OF WHETHER THE LAND USE CHANGE IS APPROPRIATE OR NOT. YOU HEARD ABOUT INFRASTRUCTURE. INFRASTRUCTURE AGAIN IS NOT PART OF THIS EVALUATION. THAT COMES WHEN YOU GO TO THE ZONING PROCESS AND YOU HAVE TO PROVE ADEQUACY OF SUPPORT IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE. YOU HEARD ABOUT TRANSIT. YOU HEARD ABOUT DITCHES AND STORMWATER AND SCHOOLS. NONE OF THAT HAS TO DO WITH CHANGING A LAND USE DESIGNATION. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THIS IS YOUR REBUTTAL CORRECT SIR? >>STEVE MICHELINI: YES, SIR. YES SIR. I JUST THOUGHT THAT YOU ARE HOLDING US TO DIFFERENT STANDARD WHEN YOU GO TO A 50-FOOT LOT WHEN WE ARE NOT A 50-FOOT LOT. THIS PROPERTY IS 8,320 SQUARE FEET. IF YOU ARE ALLOWED TO BUILD TO THE MAXIMUM, WHICH WOULD BE THREE UNITS, THAT WOULD BE 2,773 SQUARE FEET PER UNIT. THAT EXCEEDS AN AVERAGE HOUSE IS SMALLER HOME IS 15 TO 1800 SQUARE FEET. I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO GO WITH SOME OF THESE COMMENTS. THEY JUST SIMPLY DID NOT RAISE TO THE LEVEL OF COMPETENT AND SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE REGARDING A LAND USE CHANGE. THERE WERE EMOTIONAL COMMENTS ABOUT SAVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WHAT YOU ARE SAVING AT THIS LOCATION IS ONE PARCEL SURROUNDED EXCEPT FOR ON THE WEST SIDE, THERE'S ONE SINGLE-FAMILY HOUSE, AND IF YOU LOOK AT THIS, THESE SLIVERS OVER HERE, THESE ARE NOT SINGLE-FAMILY. THESE ARE APARTMENTS. THESE ARE APARTMENTS. THESE ARE THE ONES THAT I SHOWED YOU THE PICTURES OF. I TOLD YOU EXACTLY HOW MANY UNITS WERE THERE. I TOOK A PICTURE LOOKING DOWN HORATIO. AND SOME OF THE FOLKS SAID, OH, YOU KNOW, THAT THIS WAS APPROPRIATE FOR THE LOCATION. WE THOUGHT BY REMOVING THE OTHER PARCELS, THERE WAS ONE ON ORLEANS AND THE OTHER ONE NORTH OF HERE ON WILLOW, AND WE HAD MET THE INTENT AND THE DISCUSSIONS REGARDING THESE COMMENTS FROM BOTH THE PUBLIC AND FROM YOU ALL SITTING AS A REVIEW BOARD FOR LAND USE. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR STEVE. >>STEVE MICHELINI: SURE, GO AHEAD. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: CAN YOU PUT THAT MAP THAT YOU JUST SET UP, THE LAST PAGE? >>STEVE MICHELINI: THE FOLIO MAP? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: OKAY NOW. SLIDE IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT. OKAY. IT DOESN'T GO VERY FAR. BUT, OKAY, THE CORNER PROPERTY IS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. THE NEXT ONE IS WHATEVER YOU SAID, FOUR UNITS. >>STEVE MICHELINI: FOUR APARTMENTS. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: AND WILL YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND ADMIT THAT THE NEXT FOUR UNITS TO THE NORTH ARE SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES? DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES? >>STEVE MICHELINI: I DON'T HAVE PICTURES OF THEM AND I DON'T -- I AM NOT SURE. I CAN'T TESTIFY TO THAT. I HAVE DRIVEN AROUND THE AREA. I HAVE AN AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH. I HAVE AN AERIAL THAT WE CAN LOOK AT IF YOU LIKE. SLIDE IT UP OR DOWN? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: SLIDE IT DOWN. AGAIN, IT DOESN'T GO VERY FAR. MR. SHELBY SAYS THAT I CAN'T TESTIFY, BUT I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE NEXT FOUR HOUSES GOING UP WILLOW ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE STREET ON THE SAME BLOCK ARE DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES. BUT IF YOU DON'T KNOW, THAT'S FINE. >>STEVE MICHELINI: I DON'T KNOW THAT AND I CAN'T ATTEST TO THAT. I CAN ATTEST TO THE APARTMENTS THAT ARE AN THREE SIDES. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ALL RIGHT. ANYTHING ELSE, MR. MICHELINI? >>STEVE MICHELINI: I WAS WAIT IF THERE WERE ANY MORE QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY MORE QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL? ANY QUESTIONS? MOVE TO CLOSE? >>STEVE MICHELINI: NO, I DON'T WANT TO CLOSE MY COMMENTS. >>ORLANDO GUDES: I JUST ASKED YOU THAT, SIR. >>STEVE MICHELINI: I SAID I WAS WAIT FOREGO QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL, BUT I WILL BE HAPPY -- >>ORLANDO GUDES: HOW MANY MORE MINUTES DOES HE HAVE ON REBUTTAL? >> 1:30 SECOND. >>STEVE MICHELINI: JUST TO SUMMARIZE, THE CITY STAFF, THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF, THE PLANNING COMMISSION, AND ALL FOUND THAT THIS WAS CONSISTENT, AND YOU KNOW THAT THAT IS YOUR INDEPENDENT PROFESSIONAL REVIEWING AGENCY. THE REMAINING ISSUES THAT WERE TALKED ABOUT, 95, IF NOT 99% OF THEM, RELATED TO ZONING AND NOT LAND USE COMPATIBILITY. I HAVE SHOWN YOU THE MAP THAT SHOWS YOU EXACTLY WHERE THE RESIDENTIAL 35 IS. I SHOWED YOU THE MAP WHERE RESIDENTIAL 20 IS. AND THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. WE MEAT THAT CRITERIA. AND WE ARE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTING YOUR APPROVAL. THAT CONCLUDES MY COMMENTS. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, SIR. MR. MANISCALCO, MOVED TO CLOSE, MR. VIERA SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR? ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? >>MARTIN SHELBY: MR. CHAIRMAN? MS. JOHNSON-VELEZ WAS LOOKING TO BE RECOGNIZED. >>ORLANDO GUDES: IT'S DIDN'T SEE HER. YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >>SUSAN JOHNSON-VELEZ: LEGAL DEPARTMENT. I DID WANT TO CLARIFY, MR. MICHELINI REFERRED TO COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE IN REGARDS TO THIS ITEM BUT WANTED TO REMIND COUNCIL THIS IS A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT, IT IS NOT A QUASI-JUDICIAL JUDICIAL DECISION SO THE COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE DOESN'T APPLY. THIS IS A POLICY DETERMINATION BY COUNCIL AS TO WHETHER OR NOT IT'S APPROPRIATE TO CHANGE THE LAND USE CLASSIFICATION ON THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL. I JUST WANTED TO REMIND COUNCIL OF THAT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, MS. VELEZ. MR. DINGFELDER. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. JUST IN THE INTEREST OF TIME, I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD AND MAKE A MOTION TO DENY THIS PETITION, WITH ALL DUE RESPECT TO MR. MICHELINI AND HIS CLIENT, AND I APPRECIATE THE CLARIFICATION FROM MS. JOHNSON-VELEZ. THIS IS NOT COMPETENT, SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE, IT'S PREPONDERANCE OF THE EVIDENCE. IT'S A FAIRLY DEBATABLE STANDARD. AND BASED UPON THAT, I DON'T BELIEVE THAT MR. MICHELINI HAS MET HIS BURDEN AND HIS CLIENT NEITHER HAVE MET THE BURDEN OF PROVIDING PREPONDERANCE OF THE EVIDENCE FOR US TO CHANGE THIS LAND USE CATEGORY. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT POLICY DECISION OF CITY COUNCIL, AND WE HEARD FROM MANY FOLKS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, SOME OF WHO LIVED THERE FOR DECADES AND DECADES, AND IT DOESN'T STAND ALONE. ONE OF THE REASONS THAT I POINTED OUT THE FOUR HOUSES TO THE NORTH IS THEY ARE SITTING A% THE EXACT SAME THING, AND MY CONCERN IS OFTEN ON THESE TYPES OF THINGS IS PRECEDENT. AND WE ARE WARNED THAT IN ZONING CASES, PRECEDENCE IS NOT THE ISSUE BECAUSE EACH CASE -- IN THIS POLICY MATTER PRECEDENCE IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. AND TO CHANGE THIS PARTICULAR CORNER, JUST BASED UPON THE VERY SLIM EVIDENCE THAT'S BEEN PROVIDED TONIGHT, WOULD BE BAD PRECEDENT, AND SOME OF THE CONCERNS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD I WILL PUT ON THE RECORD BECAUSE I THINK THEY ARE EXTREMELY LEGITIMATE, INCLUDE ALREADY EXISTING TRAFFIC AND PARKING PROBLEMS, AS WELL AS AN OBVIOUS CHANGE IN THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S LUDICROUS TO SAY THIS IS A MULTIFAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GO UP AND DOWN THE STREET AROUND THE CORNER AND YOU CAN SEE THAT IT'S ALSO VERY, VERY MUCH A SINGLE-FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD THAT IS IN THE NATIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT. IT'S NOT IN THE NATIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, IT'S NOT A NATIONAL HISTORIC AREA OR DISTRICT BECAUSE OF THE MULTIFAMILY, IT'S BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE SINGLE-FAMILY CHARACTER OF MUCH OF THIS AREA.

THIS IS AN APPLICATION THAT IS FILED BY THE CITY OF TAMPA FOR REGIONAL IMPACT CREATED BACK IN 1983, AND IT HAS BEEN AMENDED SIX TIMES, TO APPROVE THIS AMENDMENT TONIGHT, IT WOULD BE OR HAVE FIRST READING IT WOULD BE THE SEVENTH AMENDMENT, AND THE CHANGES THAT WE ARE PROPOSING, SOME OF THEM ARE JUST HOUSEKEEPING ITEMS TO RECOGNIZE STATUTORY CHANGES, TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONAL IMPACT STATUTE THAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST FIVE OR SIX YEARS, AND THERE IS ONE SUBSTANTIVE CHANGE THAT I WILL GO OVER BRIEFLY IN JUST A MOMENT. BUT JUST TO SUMMARIZE ALL OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES, THE FIRST ONE IS TO RECOGNIZE CHANGES TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONAL IMPACT STATUTE SO THAT THIS DEVELOPMENT ORDER FOR THE DOWNTOWN DRI IS AMENDED WITH LOCAL ORDER SUNSET TO CITY OF TAMPA JURISDICTION.

WE HAVE THE APPLICANT? GOOD EVENING. >> HELLO. JULIA MANDELL, GRAY ROBINSON, 401 EAST JACKSON STREET, SUITE 2700, VERY HAPPY TO BE HERE WITH YOU TODAY. IT'S BEEN A WHILE. AND I REPRESENT NEW WORLD BREWERY, SKAGWAY YARDBIRD LLC BUT IT'S NEW WORLD BREWERY AND MANY OF YOU MAY BE FAMILIAR WITHIN NEW WORLD BREWERY, LOCATED IN YBOR CITY FOR MANY, MANY YEARS, OVER 20 YEARS, AND WE ARE A PREEMINENT MUSIC VENUE, CRAFT BEER, ESTABLISHMENT, AND OTHER GATHERING PLACE, AND THIS IS THEIR NEW LOCATION. TO CLARIFY THE RECORD, THEY ARE ALREADY IN EXISTENCE. THEY HAVE ALREADY BEEN APPROVED. THEY HAVE BEEN OPERATING FOR PROBABLY OVER A YEAR NOW. THIS APPLICATION IS SIMPLY TO TAKE CARE OF TWO OLDER -- THEY WERE OLD ORDINANCES, OLD WET ZONING ORDINANCES, THAT ALLOWED ALCOHOL SALES. THOSE ALCOHOL SALES FOR BEER, WINE AND LIQUOR WERE AN R DESIGNATION DUE TO THE FACT THAT AT THAT TIME IN ORDER TO RECEIVE ANY TYPE OF WAIVER, YOU HAD TO BE AN INCIDENTAL R USE OR SOME OTHER INCIDENTAL USE. BUT TO CLARIFY I THINK SOME OF THE QUESTIONS, THIS IN EXISTENCE AND ALREADY GONE THROUGH SITE PLAN APPROVAL, IS ACTUALLY OPERATING TODAY, IS SERVING AS A RESTAURANT, ALIVE MUSIC VENUE, AND AN OUTDOOR BEER GARDEN. SO THOSE USES HAVE BEEN APPROVED AND THOSE ARE IN EXISTENCE. I THINK IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO KNOW THAT THIS IS AN AREA IN SULPHUR SPRINGS, I THINK COUNCILMAN GUDES MENTIONED IT USED TO BE A REGGAE CLUB AND THIS WAS NOT IN THE BEST OF SHAPE AT THE TIME, BUT MR. STEVE BIRD, WHO IS THE PRIORITIES OF NEW WORLD BREWERY, TOOK IT OVER. AND I AM GOING TO ASK HIM TO DISCUSS WITH YOU WHAT HE HAS GONE THROUGH TO BRING THIS PARTICULAR ESTABLISHMENT INTO ITS CURRENT CONFIGURATION, AND STANDARDS, BECAUSE IT WAS QUITE A MESS WHEN HE FIRST WENT INTO THIS BUSINESS. SO I AM GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO HIM AND ASK HIM TO PRESENT WHAT HE'S DONE TO BRING THIS PARTICULAR AREA UP TO WHAT IS A MUCH BETTER STANDARD THAN IT WAS FOR MANY YEARS. THANK YOU. >> HELLO. HI. I AM STEVE BIRD, I'M THE OWNER AND PRIORITIES OF NEW WORLD BREWERY. WE HAVE BEEN IN EXISTENCE FOR 26 YEARS NOW. WE STARTED IN YBOR, AS JULIA MENTIONED, ACROSS FROM YBOR SQUARE, AS A RESTAURANT AND BEER GARDEN. WE STARTED IN 95 WE OPENED. I SERVED ON THE YCDC AS A BOARD MEMBER FOR 15 YEARS DOWN THERE. I CHAIRED THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE AND SPECIAL EVENTS COMMITTEE. THROUGH 2017, WHEN DARRYL SHAW BOUGHT THE PROPERTY, IT'S NOW CONDOS. SO WE PURCHASED THIS PROPERTY ON SKAGWAY AND 2017. IT WAS ORIGINALLY THE MATTERHORN FOR FIVE YEARS FROM 80 TO 85. AFTER THE MAT A TORN, IT WAS TROPICS, THEN SUPER D, IT WAS A COUPLE OF CLOPS CLUBS THAT DIDN'T ADD A WHOLE LOT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT HAD BEEN VACANT FOR ABOUT FOUR YEARS WHEN I PURCHASED IT. IT'S IDEAL FOR OUR OPERATION. WE HAVE TWO AND A HALF ACRES, ACTUALLY TO THE WEST WHERE HE SAID WAS EMPTY LOTS, THOSE ARE MORE PARKING LOTS THAT WE OWN AND HAVE IMPROVED DOWN THERE. WE HAVE LOTS OF PARKING, HAD INDUSTRIAL GENERAL ZONING. THE RAILROAD TRACKS RUN RATE BEHIND US, AND IT ABUTS 275 AND BUSCH BOULEVARD. THE BUILDING AS JULIA SAID WAS IN BAD SHAPE. IT HAD BEEN COMPLETELY STRIPPED OF WIRING, COPPER PIPE, WE HAD A HOMELESS CAMP IN THE COURTYARD. THE BONES OF THE BUILDING WERE GOOD. WE DID A COMPLETE RENOVATION. ELECTRICAL AND PLUMB, AC, LANDSCAPING. IT TOOK US ABOUT TWO AND A HALF YEARS. I HAVE A COUPLE PICTURES HERE. THAT IS WHEN WE FIRST PURCHASED THE PROPERTY, AND THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE ONE -- >>JULIA MANDELL: CAN YOU SEE THE ELMO ON YOUR SCREEN? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: COME BACK TO THE FIRST PICTURE. >> OKAY. SO THAT'S WHAT IT LAD LIKE. IT WAS KIND OF BOARDED UP AND RUN DOWN. A LITTLE MORE THAN KIND OF WHEN WE PURCHASED IT. THIS IS PRETTY SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU SAW BEFORE. THIS IS AFTER WE FIXED IT UP AND PAINTED AND LANDSCAPED AND SO FORTH. THIS IS THE LOT TO THE WEST. IT'S PART OF OUR PARKING. AND IT WAS IN PRETTY BAD SHAPE NOW. THIS IS THAT PARKING LOT NOW. IT'S BEEN LANDSCAPED AND SO FORTH. AND THIS IS JUST A PICTURE OF THE BEER GARDEN SIDE. THIS IS WHERE THE HOMELESS CAMP WAS. BUT I AM REALLY PROUD OF IT. WE DID A GREAT JOB AND PUT TWO AND A HALF YEARS IN IT. WE OPENED IN FEBRUARY OF 2020, WHICH WAS ABOUT 20 DAYS BEFORE COVID. SO IT'S BEEN A TOUGH HAUL. WE MANAGED TO SURVIVE THROUGH CARRYOUT AND SOCIAL DISTANCING. WE WERE A FOUNDING MEMBER OF THE SAFE AND SOUND COALITION, WHICH WAS EVENTUALLY ADOPTED AND PROMOTED BY THE CITY OF TAMPA. WE STILL ARE EMERGING HOPEFULLY FROM COVID. IT'S BEEN VERY DIFFICULT. WE HAVE ABOUT 24 EMPLOYEES NOW. WE SHOULD HAVE DOUBLE THAT IN A FEW YEARS. WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO OPEN OUR BALLROOM WHERE WE WILL HOST MUSIC WEDDINGS RECEPTIONS AND PRIVATE AND CORPORATE EVENTS WHEN PEOPLE START DOING THOSE ONCE AGAIN. WE ARE A FAMILY FRIENDLY OPERATION. WE HAVE A WIDE APPEAL. IN THE FOUR YEARS THAT I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS LOCATION AND OPEN, WE HAVE SEEN A GENERAL IMPROVEMENT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND NEW INVESTMENT, AND I THINK THAT'S A NOTABLE PART TO TO OUR SUBSTANTIAL INVESTMENT AND HARD WORK IMPROVING THE PROPERTY. I LOOK FORWARD TO FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS IN THE PROPERTY, IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, INVOLVEMENT IN SULPHUR SPRINGS NEIGHBORHOOD. WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANY WRITTEN RESPONSES TO OUR WET ZONING NOTICES, BUT SEVERAL OF THE NEIGHBORS HAVE STOPPED BY WHEN MY WIFE AND I WERE DOING THE LANDSCAPE AND THEY WERE ALL VERY ENCOURAGING AND APPRECIATIVE OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT HAS BEEN A REAL EYESORE AND SO FORTH. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. AND YOUR HELP TONIGHT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED, SIR. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: BY THE WAY, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THE YCDC. MY ONLY QUESTION IS THE APPLICATION AS I READ IT ON THE AGENDA INDICATES ALSO PACKAGE SALES FOR OFF-PREMISES CONSUMPTION. AND IF YOU OR YOUR FEIGN ATTORNEY COULD EXPLAIN THAT, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. NOT A BIG FAN OF LIQUOR STORES. >> RIGHT. WELL, WE ARE NOT GOING TO OPERATE A LIQUOR STORE. A QUESTION DON'T HAVE ANY KIND OF PACKAGE SALES RIGHT NOW. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: SO WHAT'S THE UNDERLYING PURPOSE FOR THAT? >> I JUST LEAVE IT AS PART OF THE ZONING. >>JULIA MANDELL: ONE OF THE REASONS THAT WE TALKED ABOUT PUTTING THAT IN IS BECAUSE AS A CRAFT BEER ESTABLISHMENT, THEY DO WANT TO BE ABLE TO HOLD BEER TASTINGS AND ALSO LIQUOR TASTINGS WHICH HAS NOW BECOME THE LIQUOR INDUSTRY HAS DEFINITELY BECOME ALSO VERY IMPORTANT. IT'S NOT CRITICAL. IF IT'S PROBLEMATIC, IT'S NOT CRITICAL FOR US TO HAVE IT, IT'S JUST REALLY MORE TRYING TO OPEN UP THAT OPPORTUNITY FOR THOSE TYPES OF THINGS. >>: IS IT TO SELL THOSE, WHAT ARE THEY CALLED, THE -- >> I WILL ASK THE NEXT QUESTION, YES. >>JULIA MANDELL: IT'S NOT WHAT STEVE IS DOING. HE IS HE'S SIMPLY NOT ONLY HAS HE IMPROVED THE AREA AND THE PROPERTY IN THE AREA PROVIDING PARKING, HE'S TRYING TO ENSURE THAT WHAT HE'S BUILT IN YBOR CAN REMAIN IN TERMS OF BRINGING LOCAL LIVE MUSIC AND ACTS TO AN AREA THAT DOESN'T ALWAYS HAVE THOSE OPPORTUNITIES, AND THIS PROPERTY WAS PERFECT FOR THAT BECAUSE IT HAS THE INDOOR SEATS. THE OLD NEW WORLD DIDN'T HAVE. SO IF THAT'S AN ISSUE FOR COUNCIL I DON'T THINK THAT'S CRITICAL AND WE ARE CERTAINLY HAPPY TO REMOVE THAT AS PART OF THE REQUEST. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. CITRO. >>JOSEPH CITRO: TO GO ON COUNCILMAN CAPIN DINGFELDER'S QUESTION, YOU ARE STILL BREWING -- LET ME REPHRASE THAT, NOT GIVING EVIDENCE. YOU ARE BREWING YOUR OWN BEERS? >> NO, WE AREN'T. WE QUIT THAT AFTER TWO YEARS DOWN IN YBOR, BUT WE HAVE ESTABLISHED THE NAME SO WE STILL GO BY NEW WORLD BREWERY. WE SPECIALIZE -- >>JOSEPH CITRO: SO THE PACKAGE STORE WOULDN'T BE SELLING YOUR BREW? ARE YOU DISTILLING YOUR OWN SPIRITS? >> NO, SIR. >>JOSEPH CITRO: SO THIS PACKAGE STORE WOULD NOT BE SELLING YOUR DISTILLED SPIRITS? >> THAT IS CORRECT. >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. MIRANDA? YOU HAD YOUR HAND UP, SIR? >> NO. I WAS JUST WAVING. >>JULIA MANDELL: THERE WAS NO INTENT TO HAVE A PACKAGE STORE. IT WHATS S SIMPLY TO HAVE OPPORTUNITY FOR BEER TASTING, WINE TASTING OR LIQUOR TASTING WHERE SOMEBODY COULD PURCHASE THOSE FROM THIRD PARTIES. AS I IT'S NOT CRITICAL. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I BELIEVE THAT THE LAW -- DID THE LAW JUST CHANGE, IF YOU BUY A BOTTLE AND YOU WANT TO TAKE IT HOME YOU CAN TAKE IT HOME? MAYBE THAT'S WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I READ THAT ARTICLE BUT DIDN'T UNDERSTAND IT. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: NEITHER DID I BUT I REMEMBER THAT PART. >>JULIA MANDELL: YOU MAY BE CORRECT THAT IN FACT WHEN WE FIRST SUBMITTED THAT LAW DIDN'T EXIST, AND I DIDN'T REALLY THINK ABOUT THAT. I THINK THERE IS A NEW CHANGE IN THE LAW THAT DOES ALLOW YOU TO ACTUALLY TAKE LIQUOR WITH YOU, OR BEER WITH YOU FROM AN ESTABLISHMENT SO LONG AS IT'S CLOSED. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT, GENTLEMEN? >> MOVE TO CLOSE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYBODY TO COMMENT? >> THERE ARE NO REGISTERED SPEAKERS FOR THIS ITEM. >>ORLANDO GUDES: SECOND FLOOR? ALL RIGHT. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: MS. MANDELL, IS IT SAFE TO ASSUME THAT YOU DIDN'T HEAR BACK FROM ANYBODY THAT YOU NOTICED? >>JULIA MANDELL: I DIDN'T HEAR BACK FROM ANYBODY THAT WE NOTICED. IN FACT IN YOUR PACKET THERE IS A LETTER OF SUPPORT FROM THE INNOVATION DISTRICT AND MR. MARK SCHAAP WHO THEY DULY HELD AN EVENT THERE AND REALLY ENJOYED THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE SOMETHING IN PROXIMITY TO WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DO. THANK YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. SHELBY. >>MARTIN SHELBY: I SAW MRS. ROSARIO. I SEE HER THERE. SHE CAN'T ESCAPE. >>AILEEN ROSARIO: DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH MANAGEMENT. THERE IS NO ONE HERE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: MOVE TO CLOSE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: SECOND BY MR. MANISCALCO. ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? ALL RIGHT. WE WILL MOVE ON. MR.

I AM NOT THRILLED ABOUT THE PACKAGE SALES OFF-PREMISES CONSUMPTION. MS. MANDELL INDICATED THAT'S NOT CRITICAL TO HER CLIENT. WOULD THE MAKER OF THE MOTION ACCEPT A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT AND STRIKE OFF THOSE WORDS "AND PACKAGE SALES? >>LUIS VIERA: YES, SIR, I WILL.

IN 1992. AS YOU KNOW, IT BECAME EXTREMELY POPULAR PLACE TO HANG OUT ESPECIALLY ON ST. PATRICK'S DAY, AND ACTUALLY WAS VOTED ONE OF THE TOP TEN IRISH PUBS IN THE WORLD. FOUR GREEN FIELDS HAS THREE OTHER LOCATIONS IN TAMPA, ONE AT CURTIS HIXON PARK, ONE AT AMALIE ARENA AND TAMPA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, AND IN ADDITION TO THAT OWNS A CASTLE OVER IN IRELAND. BUT THEY CLOSED THEIR PLATT STREET LOCATION AT THE END OF LAST YEAR, AND WITH THAT CLOSING THEY WERE LOOKING TO RELOCATE THE PUB AND CONSOLIDATE THEIR OPERATION INTO ONE BIDDING ON THIS SITE THAT WE ARE DISCUSSING TONIGHT. OUR REQUEST BEFORE YOU IS TO CHANGE THE USE OF AN OLD ABANDONED WAREHOUSE ON THE NORTH END OF THE CHANNEL DISTRICT. AS AND YOU CAN SEE IT'S BETWEEN THE CROSSTOWN AND IT LIES IN BETWEEN TWO URBAN VILLAGES. WE FILED THIS APPLICAION IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR, AND OF COURSE WE ARE BEFORE YOU TONIGHT. SLIDE FOUR, PLEASE. OKAY. SO AGAIN, ZAIN GAVE YOU THE OVERSIGHT OF THE SITE. THIS IS OUTLINED IN RED. AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE LEFT OR WEST SIDE OF 12th STREET, 12th RUNNING NORTH AND SOUTH, THERE ARE TWO BUILDINGS, THEY BOTH STARTED OFF BEING RECTANGULAR BUT WHEN THE CROSSTOWN EXPRESSWAY TOOK THE PROPERTY ON THE SOUTH THE OWNER CONVERTED THE LOWER ONE ON THE SOUTH INTO AN TRIANGLE. WE ARE NOT DEALING WITH THAT TONIGHT. IN FACT, MY CLIENT'S LEASE DOES NOT EVEN EXTEND TO THAT. THE ONLY BUILDING THAT WE ARE DEALING WITH IS THE 802 NORTH 12th STREET, THE RECTANGULAR BUILDING. AND THEN OF COURSE ACROSS THE STREET TO THE EAST ON THE EAST SIDE OF 12th, 717 NORTH 12th STREET IS WHERE MOST OF THE PARKING WILL BE PROVIDED. AS MR. HUSAIN SAID, ACCESS IS OFF OF NORTH 12th STREET WHICH AS YOU CAN SEE GOES UNDER THE CROSSTOWN EXPRESSWAY, AND THEN ODDLY ENOUGH SORT OF TURNS TO THE RIGHT AND BECOMES ADAMO DRIVE. AND THEN AS YOU CAN ALSO SEE CHANNELSIDE DRIVE A LITTLE BIT TO THE EAST, PARALLELS 12th STREET, AND IN THE VICINITY THERE'S ALL THIS COMMERCIAL AND MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL USES. ALL IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO WE ARE HERE TONIGHT TO REQUEST YOUR APPROVAL OF AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE SPECIAL 2 PERMIT FOR BEER, WINE AND LIQUOR ON PREMISES AND PACKAGE SALES FOR OFF-PREMISES CONSUMPTION. THIS OFF-PREMISES IS STRICTLY ON THIS SITE IN THE STOLT BOTTLES, CONTAINERS, AND TAKE IT OFF-SITE FOR CONSUMPTION. NO CONSUMPTION IS ALLOWED ON THE SITE ITSELF. SLIDE FIVE. THIS IS FIVE. I'M SORRY. THIS ALSO SHOWS TWO OF THE WAIVERS THAT WE ARE SEEKING. TWO OF THE FOUR WAIVERS. THE ONE MENTIONED EARLIER IS CHANNELSIDE APARTMENTS WHICH ARE 205 FEET SOUTH OF THE SITE, AND THEN THE DEPUTY JOHN COFILA DOG PARK ABOUT 375 SOUTH AND WEST OF THE SITE. SLIDE SIX. THIS IS THE SITE PLAN, AGAIN, FOUR FIELD IS ONLY GOING TO BE UTILIZING THE RECTANGULAR BUILDING ON THE LEFT, THE ONE THAT IS HATCHED WITH HATCH MARKS, AND GRAYED OUT. AND CONSOLIDATED INTO THAT BUILDING WILL BE THREE USES. ONE, THE PUB THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY ON PLATT STREET WILL BE LOCATED HERE. IN ADDITION, THEY WILL HAVE A BEER BREWERY FOR BREWING PRIVATE LABEL BEER OF FOUR GREEN FIELDS. AND THEN FINALLY, AS A RESULT OF THEIR OWNERSHIP OF THE CASTLE INURE LAND, HE BECAME FRIENDS WITH SOME DISTILLERS OVER THERE, AND THEY ARE ACTUALLY DISTILLING FOUR GREEN FIELDS IRISH WHISKEY, DISTILLED IN IRELAND, AND THEN BROUGHT OVER HERE, AND IT WILL BE PUT IN A WAREHOUSE IN THE SAME BUILDING, AND THEN DISTRIBUTED OUT TO PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY, BARS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. OVER THE YEARS, AS YOU CAN TELL, IT'S A VERY ODD SHAPED PEACE OF PROPERTY. THE DARK LINE AROUND THE EXTERIOR SHOWS HOW IT HAS BEEN CUT A NUMBER OF TIMES, MAINLY BY THE CROSSTOWN EXPRESSWAY, TAKING PROPERTY AS PART OF THE EMINENT DOMAIN. I WILL CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO THE YELLOW PORTION, THE UPPER PART OF THE YELLOW IS THE EDGE OF PAVEMENT, SO YOU ACTUALLY HAVE PAVEMENT THAT USED TO BE PART OF THIS PROPERTY BEFORE THE TAKING BY CROSSTOWN. THE PAVEMENT IS STILL THERE, STILL MAINTAINED, BUT IT IS OUTSIDE THE PROPERTY. THAT WILL BE ABLE TO BE USED BECAUSE ABOUT A MONTH AGO WE WERE ABLE TO GET A LICENSE AGREEMENT TO ALLOW PEDESTRIAN AND VEHICULAR USE OVER THAT PROPERTY. SO EVEN THOUGH THE SITE IS BOUNDED BY THE PROPERTY LANE, WE CAN USE THE PROPERTY OUTSIDE FOR VEHICULAR PEDESTRIAN USE. SLIDE SEVEN, PLEASE. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, WE ARE REQUESTING FOUR WAIVERS. THE FIRST IS TO REDUCE THE PARKING FROM 75 TO 53 SPACES, WHICH IS A 29% REDUCTION. AS MENTIONED EARLIER, MR. BREEN HAS BEEN OPERATING FOUR GREEN FIELDS OVER ON PLATT STREET FOR 29 YEARS. DUE TO THAT EXPERIENCE, THEY FOUND THAT THE AVERAGE NUMBER OF VEHICLES PARKED AT THE PEAK HOURS WAS ROUGHLY 40, AND THAT WOULD REDUCE DOWN TO ABOUT 20 DURING THE DAYTIME FOR THE LUNCH ACTIVITY. SO WITH THEIR HISTORY OF USING 40, THEY THINK THAT 53 IS CERTAINLY SUFFICIENT. IN ADDITION, ON THE WAIVERS OF COURSE IS THE FACT THAT CHANNELSIDE IS 205 AWAY, NOT ONLY IF YOU HAVE BELL CHANNELSIDE, YOU HAVE GOT A CHANNEL CAR, YOU HAVE GRAND CENTRAL, YOU HAVE THE ENTIRE CHANNEL DISTRICT, AND AS YOU KNOW THESE ARE ALL MOSTLY YOUNG PEOPLE, MOST OF THEM WALK TO PLACES, SO WE DO ANTICIPATE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC COMING IN, WHICH OBVIOUSLY WE WILL NOT NEED PARKING SPACES. AND OF COURSE THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH WE ARE IN, A LOT OF THE YOUNG PATRONS THAT COME TO FOUR GREEN FIELDS EITHER RIDE SHARE WITH THEIR FRIENDS OR THEY USE UBER OR LYFT OR ONE OF THOSE, ALL WHICH IS TO SAY WE THINK A REDUCTION OF 75 TO 353 IS CERTAINLY SUFFICIENT TO HANDLE WHAT'S ANTICIPATED TO BE THE MAXIMUM CROWDS THERE. SO THAT'S WITH REGARDS TO THE FIRST WAIVER, REDUCING PARKING FROM 75 TO 53. IF YOU WOULD GO BACK TO SLIDE SIX, WE ARE ALSO OUTLINED IN THE LITTLE RED SQUIGGLY THERE IS THE ISLE WIDTH ON THAT NORTHERN EASTERN CONSIDERATE OF THE 802 PROPERTY AND IT'S A LITTLE SMALL BUT SAYS 23 FEET, WHICH IS ONE FAT SHORT OF WHAT IS REQUIRED BY CITY CODE, AND WE HAVE THE PRACTICE CRA SPACE FROM THE THEA AGREEMENT, THE LICENSE AGREEMENT, TO USE THIS PROPERTY IN YELLOW, CERTAINLY TO MITIGATES AGAINST THAT AS WELL AS THE ONE-FOOT SHOULD NOT MAKE A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE. THEN GOING GOING BACK TO SLIDE SIX, WE ARE REQUESTING A WAIVER OF THE REQUIRED DISTANCE SEPARATION TO RESIDENTIAL USES, FOR THE BENEFIT AGAIN, BELL CHANNELSIDE AS YOU CAN SEE IS 205 FEET AWAY. NOT 1,000. AND WE THINK THAT'S A PLUS, NOT A MINUS. THEN OF COURSE THE DOG PARK IS 375 FEET. SO WE ARE REQUESTING A WAIVER OF THAT AS WELL. SHALL SO NIECE OUR PRESENTATION. WE ARE HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS, SIR? >>JOSEPH CITRO: IF I MAY, MR. CHAIR. [OFF MICROPHONE] >> I COULDN'T HEAR. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: WILL THEY BE SERVING THE SAME FINE FOOD ON PLATT STREET? >> ABSOLUTELY THE SAME. >>JOSEPH CITRO: FANTASTIC. I UNDERSTAND YOU ARE GOING TO BE SELLING YOUR OWN BREWED BEER AND YOUR OWN PERSONAL LABELED IRISH WHISKEY. IS THAT TRUE? >> TRUE. THE IRISH WHISKEY UNDER THE KENNEDY LABEL, AND BE AVAILABLE, AND WE ARE WORKING ON DISTRIBUTION CANADA THE ISLAND, SO PART OF THIS WILL BE WAREHOUSING THE WHISKEY AS WELL. >> WILL YOU BE SELLING ANY OTHER LABELS? >> OH, YES. IT'S A TAMPA FULL BAR. >> I'M SORRY, FOR THE PACKAGE SALES AND OFF-PREMISES CONSUMPTION? >> YES, BUT IT WON'T BE FOR CONSUMPTION. WHICH I THINK YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT AT THE LAST PRESENTATION WITH TO GO OR PARTIAL BOTTLES. THIS WILL BE -- WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE A PANGAGE STORE BUT IT'S AVAILABLE. WE CAN'T REALLY TELL SOMEBODY THEY CAN BUY IRISH WHISKEY BUT THEY CAN'T BUY JIM BEAM, FOR EXAMPLE. I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER SELLING BOTTLE TO GO. IT'S NOT A BIG PART OF IT BUT WE DO HAVE TO HAVE IT SO WE CAN PRESENTS THE IRISH WHISKEY. >>JOSEPH CITRO: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYONE ELSE? MR. DINGFELDER, YOU ARE RECOGNIZED SIR. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. GOOD EVENING. A LOT OF TIMES, THESE TYPES OF ESTABLISHMENTS, I MIGHT BE CONCERNED ABOUT ANY SORT OF OUTDOOR VENUE OR OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND, BUT IN LOOKING AT THIS SITE, IT'S A KIND OF PRETTY UNIQUE IN TERMS OF BEING BASICALLY SURROUNDED BY CROSSTOWN ON BOTH SIDES. BUT ANYWAY, I GUESS I AM JUST CURIOUS, IS THERE ANY OUTDOOR VENUE OR OUTDOOR AMPLIFIED SOUND ANTICIPATED? AND IF SO, WHICH SIDE? >> NO, IT WILL BE THE SAME. WE HAVE ACTUALLY MOVED EVERYTHING FROM INTERIOR ON PLATT STREET, IT'S GOING TO BE EXACTLY THE SAME INSIDE ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AND THAT'S IT. THAT'S THE EXTENT OF THE MUSIC. THERE WON'T BE ANY OUTDOOR MUSIC. BUT AS YOU SAID, TRAFFIC NOISE IS PROBABLY TAKING AWAY FROM THAT. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THANK YOU. GOOD LUCK TO YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYONE ELSE?

WONDERFUL. THANKS SO MUCH. THE APPLICANT HERE IS CRAIG WEBER, REPRESENTATIVES NAME IS STEVE MICHELINI, PROPERTY AT 1606 WEST SNOW AVENUE. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE APPROVAL TO ALLOW THE SALE OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES FOR RESTAURANT, BEER, WINE AND LIQUOR CONSUMPTION ON PREMISES ONLY. THE PROPOSED USE IS A RESTAURANT WITH AB SALES AREA OF 6,748 SQUARE FEET INDOORS, AND 1,640 SQUARE FEET OUTDOORS FOR A TOTAL OF 8,388 SQUARE FEET. PEDESTRIAN ACCESS IS ON SNOW AVENUE. THE REQUIRED PARKING FOR THE SITE IS 3657 PARKING SPACES, AND THE SITE PLAN SHOWING 91 PROVIDED PARKING SPACES. THE PROPOSED HOURS OF OPERATION WILL BE MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY, 11 A.M. TO 1 A.M., AND THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY, 11 A.M. TILL 2 A.M. THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN THE HYDE PARK URBAN VILLAGES, AND DISTANCE SEPARATION REQUIREMENT IS 250 FEET FROM OTHER AB SALES ESTABLISHMENTS. AS YOU SEE, THERE IS ONE AB SALES ESTABLISHMENT IN THE SAME PARCEL WHICH IS BOOZEY AT 1602 WEST SNOW AVENUE WHICH IS ABOUT THREE BUSINESSES DOWN THE STRIP. THERE'S A 4(COP) NPS. OVERHEAD SITE LOOKING AT THE HYDE PARK AREA, YOU HAVE TO THE NORTH, YOU HAVE WEST SNOW AVENUE. TO THE WEST YOU HAVE SOUTH ROME AVENUE. AND THEN THE VILLAGE CIRCLE WITH OTHER COMMERCIAL ESTABLISHMENTS TO THE NORTH AND ALSO TO THE EAST. OVERHEAD SITE LOOKING AT THE MEAT MARKET ESTABLISHMENT RESTAURANT HERE, THE INDOOR AB SALES AREA AND THE OUTDOOR AB SALES AREA. CLOSER LOOK. YOU WILL SEE THE FIRST PICTURE TO THE WEST OF THE MEAT MARKET. YOU HAVE BUDDY BREW OVER THERE. AND ALSO YOU HAVE WINE EXCHANGE, AND I BELIEVE ABEGI TO THE NORTHWEST. TO THE SOUTH, TO THE WEST OF THE ESTABLISHMENT YOU HAVE BONABO, MADWELL, THEN A COUPLE OTHER ESTABLISHMENTS, AND BOOZEY IS RATE DOWN HERE NEXT TO MOODY PLACE. AND TO THE EAST OF THE ESTABLISHMENT YOU HAVE PARTY BARN AND ALSO THE HYDE PARK CIRCLE. STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND FOUND IT INCONSISTENT WITH THE APPLICABLE CITY OF TAMPA CODE OF ORDINANCES. MINOR CORRECTIONS ARE NEED IN THE SITE PLAN BETWEEN THE FIRSTHAND SECOND READING. I AM AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS IF NEEDED. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS? ANY QUESTIONS? ANYBODY ON THE SECOND FLOOR? >>STEVE MICHELINI: I'M HEAR REPRESENTING THE MEAT MARKET OF TAMPA. LET ME FIRST SHOW YOU THE AREA. FIRST OF ALL, LET ME START BY SAYING THAT THE PROPERTY CURRENTLY HAS AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE ZONING, AND WE ADDED AN ADDITIONAL PARCEL TO THIS, AN ADDITIONAL STOREFRONT, BACK IN DECEMBER. AND THIS PETITION WILL JOIN THOSE TWO PARCELS AND ALSO CONSOLIDATE THE HOURS OF OPERATION AND MAKE THEM AS ZAIN POINTED OUT MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY, 11 TO 1, AND THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY, 11 TILL 2 A.M. THIS IS THE LOCATION OF THE EXISTING MEAT MARKET. ALSO AS ZAIN POINTED OUT WE HAVE AN EXISTING AREA OF 1640 SQUARE FEET OUTDOORS, AND 6,748 SQUARE FEET INDOORS. THE OUTDOOR AREA IS A COMBINATION OF TABLES WITH UMBRELLAS, AS WELL AS SEATING UNDERNEATH AN EXISTING CANOPY. THE INCONSISTENCY AS I UNDERSTAND IT IN SPEAKING WITH ZAIN RELATES TO -- YOUR VIDEO IS GONE. THERE WE GO. THE INCONSISTENCY RELATES TO THE FACT THAT WE HAVE ZERO SEPARATION BETWEEN THIS EXISTING ESTABLISHMENT AND THE RECENTLY APPROVED BOOZEY WHICH IS IMMEDIATELY TO THE WEST. SO WE HAVE SOME MINOR TECHNICAL ISSUES TO RESOLVE, WHICH IS PUTTING SOME NOTES ON THE SITE PLAN, BUT OUTSIDE OF THAT, I THINK WE ARE CONSISTENT IN EVERY RESPECT. WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR ANY WAIVERS. EXCEPT FOR THE DISTANCE SEPARATION WAIVER. WE HAVE EXISTING 841 PARKING SPACES WHICH IS REQUIRED, AND WE ARE PROVIDING 993 SPACES WHICH ARE PROVIDED IN THE VARIOUS GARAGES AND ON THE STREET. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. THIS HAS BECOME ONE OF THE LANDMARK LOCATIONS. IT'S A VERY ACTIVE AND VERY POPULAR LOCATION IN OLD HYDE PARK VILLAGE. >>ORLANO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? DO WE HAVE ANYBODY TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM?

GOING OVER AGENDA 9. REZ 21-30, 813 WEST AMELIA AVENUE, APPROPRIATING REZONE FROM RS 60 TO PD RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED AND EXTENDED FAMILY RESIDENCE. I'LL NOW PASS IT ALONG TO PLANNING COMMISSIONER JENNIFER MALONE. >> REZ 21-30, AS HUSAIN STATED BEFORE. CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT. WITHIN THE RIDGEWOOD PARK NEIGHBORHOOD. APPROXIMATELY 0.1 MILES TO THE EAST OF THE SITE AT THE CORNER OF COLUMBUS DRIVE AND NORTH GLENDALE DRIVE IS THE CLOSEST TRANSIT STOP. LOCATED LEVEL C EVACUATION ZONE AND PHILLIPS PARK IS ABOUT 0.1 MILES TO THE EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE. THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE OUTLINED IN PURPLE. THE HILLSBOROUGH RIVER, YOU CAN KIND OF SEE A SLIVER OF IT TO THE WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE. AGAIN, LOCATED ON WEST AMELIA AVENUE JUST SOUTH OF WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE. IT'S VERY MUCH SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED NEIGHBORHOOD. THE NEXT SLIDE IS THE ADOPTED FUTURE LAND USE MAP. THE FUTURE LAND USE OF THE SITE IS RESIDENTIAL 10, WHICH ALLOWS FOR THOSE TEN DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE. AGAIN, SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. TO THE NORTH, GREEN ON THE MAP IS RECREATION OPEN SPACE. THAT'S PHILLIPS PARK. IF IT'S FAMILIAR TO YOU, IT WAS PART OF ONE OF OUR PARKS AMENDMENTS THAT CAME BEFORE YOU RECENTLY TO DESIGNATE THAT AS RECREATIONAL OPEN SPACE. THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF DID FIND THIS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. FOUND THAT THE PROPOSED SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHLOAD RESIDENCE THROUGH THIS PD WOULD BE CONSISTENT WITH THE PLAN AND COMPARABLE AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. EXTENDED FAMILY RESIDENCE PROPOSED AS PART OF THIS PD IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH THE PLAN. THESE ARE SEVERAL POLICIES IN THE PLAN THAT SUPPORT EXTENDED FAMILY RESIDENCES TO PROVIDE THAT VARIETY OF HOUSING TYPES. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ENCOURAGES NEW HOUSING ON VACANT UNDERUTILIZED LAND TO ENSURE ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF HOUSING TO MEET THE NEEDS OF TAMPA'S GROWING POPULATION. I WOULD ALSO NOTE THAT THE OVERALL DENSITY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS ABOUT 6.6 UNITS PER ACRE, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH THAT RESIDENTIAL 10 FUTURE LAND USE, WHICH ALLOWS TEN DWELLING UNITS AN ACRE. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION. I'M AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS, GENTLEMEN? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: DID EITHER OF YOU SHOW US PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES NEXT DOOR AND ACROSS THE STREET? ARE THEY BUILT ON THE SINGLE LOTS OR ARE THEY BUILT ON DOUBLE LOTS? >>ZAIN HUSAIN: YES, SIR, I'LL BE SHOWING PICTURES DURING MY PRESENTATION AND WE CAN DISCUSS THAT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: NO QUESTIONS FOR MS. MALONE, WE'LL GO TO MR. HUSAIN AND MAYBE GET THAT QUESTION FOR MR. DINGFELDER. YOU'RE RECOGNIZED, SIR. >>ZAIN HUSAIN: ZAIN HUSAIN, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION. CAN EVERYONE SEE MY SLIDE?

THIS PROPOSED REZONING FROM RS-60, SINGLE-FAMILY, TO PD, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED EXTENDED FAMILY RESIDENCE. THIS PD IS TO ALLOW FOR TWO SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED RESIDENTIAL LOTS AND EXTENDED FAMILY RESIDENCES. THE MINIMUM LOT AREA FOR THE RS 60 ZONING IS 6,000 SQUARE FEET, AND BOTH PROPOSED LOTS, PARCEL A AND PARCEL B CONTAIN 6,500 SQUARE FEET MEETING THIS REQUIREMENT. THE MINIMUM LOT WIDTH FOR RS 60 IS 60 FEET. AND THE PROPOSED LOT WIDTHS DO NOT MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS, WHICH IS WHY THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING THIS PD. THE LOT WIDTH OF PARCEL A IS 50 FEET AND LOT WIDTH OF PARCEL B IS ALSO 50 FEET. THERE IS ALSO A WAIVER REQUESTED FROM SECTION 27-132 TO ALLOW THE ACCESSORY STRUCTURE ON PARCEL A TO EXCEED THE 600 SQUARE FEET TO ALLOW 968 SQUARE FEET. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: HUSAIN, WHAT DID YOU SAY THE UNDERLYING REASON WAS? THE MAIN CRITERIA THAT THEY DON'T MEET? >>ZAIN HUSAIN: THE LOT WIDTH. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THE LOT WIDTH. WHICH IS WHAT? >>ZAIN HUSAIN: THEY BOTH HAVE LOT WIDTH, PARCEL A AND PARCEL B OF 50 FEET. AND RS 60 REQUIRES 60 FEET IN WIDTH. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THEY HAVE THE SQUARE FOOTAGE BUT NOT THE WIDTH. >>ZAIN HUSAIN: CORRECT. THEY HAVE 6,000 SQUARE FEET EACH, AND MINIMUM IS 6500 SQUARE FOOT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: DOES THAT CONCLUDE YOUR PRESENTATION? >>ZAIN HUSAIN: AS I CONTINUE ON, PARCEL A REQUESTING DETACHED TWO STORY ACCESSORY STRUCTURE GARAGE WITH EXTENDED FAMILY RESIDENCE. PARCEL B HAS AN EXISTING DETACHED SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE WHICH WILL REMAIN. THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON LOTS 15 AND 16 IN THE RIDGEWOOD PARK REPLAT, WHICH WAS PLATTED IN 1922, WHICH I WILL SHOW ON THE NEXT SLIDE. LOT 15 AND 16 HERE. AS YOU LOOK AT THE CONFORMING MAP, THE RIDGEWOOD PARK REPLAT WAS ORIGINALLY PLATTED IN 1922. THE SUBJECT APPLICATION SEEKS TO SPLIT THE LOT RIGHT HERE WHERE THE HATCHED RED MARK IS. SPLIT THE LOTS OF THE -- TO CREATE TWO BUILDABLE LOTS. THE OVERALL AREA OF ANALYSIS INCLUDES 281 TOTAL ZONING LOTS. 143 OR 51 PERCENT OF THE LOTS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 59.99 FEET OR LESS AND 138 OR 49 PERCENT OF THE LOTS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A 60 FEET WIDTH OR GREATER. THE BLOCK OF WEST AMELIA AVENUE, WEST AMELIA AVENUE OVER HERE, THE BLOCK OF WEST AMELIA AVENUE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE STREET CONTAIN 15 TOTAL ZONING LOTS. FIVE OF THESE LOTS OR 33 PERCENT OF THE LOTS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH A WIDTH OF 60 FEET OR GREATER AND TEN HAVE A WIDTH OF 59.99 FEET OR LESS. SO STAFF HAS IDENTIFIED THAT 49% OF THESE LOTS IN THE STUDY AREA, 30 PERCENT OF THE SUBJECT BLOCK AND 43% OF THE BLOCK FACE AND BLOCK OF WEST -- DRIVE ARE 60 FEET IN WIDTH OR GREATER. STAFF FINDS THE PROPOSED RECONFIGURATION OF THE PROPOSED LOTS TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE OVERALL STUDIED AREA BLOCK AND BLOCK FACE OF THE SURROUNDING AREA. AS YOU SEE THE PLAT OVERHEAD VIEW WITH THE RED OUTLINED LOTS AND THE SITE PLAN OF THE LOTS HERE, LOT A, PARCEL A AND PARCEL B. PARCEL A, OF COURSE, BEING THE PROPOSED TWO STORY MASONRY RESIDENCE AND ALSO THE DETACHED STRUCTURE.

THE DENSITY THAT'S BEING PROPOSED IS A LITTLE LESS THAN SIX UNITS PER ACRE, AND THIS IS RESIDENTIAL TEN, WHICH WOULD ALLOW TEN UNITS TO THE ACRE. THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES BOTH ON THE BLOCK FACE AND IN GENERAL FOR THE AREA. THESE ARE THREE ORIGINALLY PLATTED LOTS, AS MR. HUSAIN HAS ALREADY POINTED OUT. 50 BY 135, WHICH MEANS THE LOTS EXCEED THE SQUARE FOOTAGE REQUIREMENT AND THEY MEET THE 5T REQUESTED FOR THE RS 50. THE GENERAL REQUIREMENTS ARE THAT THE CITY COUNCIL HAS TO FIND THE FOLLOWING, THAT THE SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS PROVIDE FOR DETACHED HOUSING ON A VARIETY OF LOT SIZES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TAMPA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. ACCESSORY USES COMPATIBLE RELATED SUPPORT USES FOR RESIDENTIAL AND SPECIAL USES ARE PERMITTED. IN THIS CASE, A DISTRICT PROVIDES AREAS FOR PRIMARILY LOW DENSITY SINGLE-FAMILY DWELLINGS. AND PROVIDED IN THIS RS 50 DISTRICT. THE PROPERTY, AS I POINTED OUT IS R-10, WHICH ALLOWS THIS AND WE'RE BELOW THE DENSITY, THE MAXIMUM DENSITY THAT WOULD BE PERMITTED. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN INDICATES IN POLICY 9.3.8, THE INTENT THAT NEW RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS WILL BE MINIMALLY DISRUPTIVE TO THE ADJACENT AREA AND AS THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF HAS POINTED OUT, THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. THE CITY SHALL ASSESS THE POTENTIAL POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE IMPACTS. THE NO NEGATIVE IMPACTS WERE NOTED IN ANY RESPECT FROM ANY OF THE REVIEWING AGENCIES. THE OVERALL AREA OF ANALYSIS SHOWS, AGAIN, AS THE CITY STAFF HAS POINTED OUT, THAT 75% OF THE DEVELOPMENT LOTS MEET THIS DEVELOPMENT PATTERN AND THE BLOCK FACE ITSELF. AND THEY HAVE ALREADY POINTED OUT WITH YOU WITH THE -- I'M SORRY, THE ZONING PATTERN ANALYSIS THAT THE SUBJECT LOT IS HERE AND THE BLUE INDICATES THE 50-FOOT LOTS OR LESS THAN 60-FOOT LOT DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. WITH THE CONTEXT OF THIS, THE SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED RESIDENCE IS A PREDOMINANT DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. WE MEET A NUMBER OF LAND USE DEVELOPMENT CODES, AND I'LL JUST NUMBER THEM, LAND USE OBJECTIVE 8.14 THAT SHALL BE CONSISTENT, AND I'M ABBREVIATING THIS, SHALL BE CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THE STAFF HAS FOUND IT TO BE CONSISTENT. EACH LAND USE PLAN CATEGORY SHALL HAVE A UNIQUE SET OF ZONING DISTRICTS. WITHIN THAT LAND USE AND WHICH PROVIDE MIXES OF USES, ANYWAY, IT MEETS THAT CODE. LAND USE OBJECTIVE 9.2 ENSURE THERE IS ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF LAND PLANNED FOR RESIDENTIAL PURPOSES. LAND USE 9.2.1 PROMOTE AND MAINTAIN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS, AND THIS DOES THAT. THIS IS NOT DISRUPTED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOODS OR THE PROVISION OF SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED HOMES. COMPATIBLE DEVELOPMENT AND RESIDENTIAL AND REDEVELOPMENT AREAS SUSTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS, THAT'S 9.3. LAND USE 9.3.8 INTENDS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS SHALL BE MINIMALLY DISRUPTIVE. THIS DOES NOT DISRUPT ANY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. MAINTAINS STABILITY THIS WILL INSERT THREE NEW HOMES INTO THIS AREA WHICH WILL DRAMATICALLY IMPROVE NOT ONLY INFRASTRUCTURE BUT ALSO THE TAX BASE. LAND USE POLICY 9.5.3 PROVIDE DIFFERENT INTENSITIES. THIS IS BELOW THE MAXIMUM DENSITY AND INTENSITY ALLOWED UNDER THE LAND USE CODE. 1.3 ENGAGE NEIGHBORHOODS RESIDENTS IN COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS TO SHARE INFORMATION, SOLVE PROBLEMS AND PLAN FOR THE FUTURE. THESE HOMES WILL BE CONSISTENT WITH EVERYTHING SURROUNDING IN THAT AREA. 1.3.10, THE DEVELOPMENT PATTERN EXISTS, AND THIS WILL NOT BE INSERTING OR DEVELOPING, ESTABLISHING A NEW DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. HOUSING NEEDS OBJECTIVE 1.3 ENSURE THAT ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF HOUSING IS THERE TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE FUTURE. HOUSING POLICY 1.3.1 DESIGNATES FISH AND LAND FOR RESIDENTIAL GROWTH TO SHARE THE REGIONAL HOUSEHOLD GROWTH AND PATTERN OF DEVELOPMENT. 1.3.3, CONTINUE TO MONITOR RESIDENTIAL TO ENSURE ADEQUATE SITES ARE AVAILABLE. AND THE STAFF GOES ON TO SAY THAT THEY HAVE DONE THE ANALYSIS FOR BOTH THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THE CITY STAFF, AND THEY FOUND THIS TO BE CONSISTENT. I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE. AND JUST FOR THE RECORD, I'D LIKE THIS INFORMATION REFLECTED ON THIS PETITION AS WELL AS MY OTHER ONES THAT I'VE BEEN CERTIFIED BY THE 13th JUDICIAL CIRCUIT COURT AS AN EXPERT IN LAND USE AND ZONING AND PLANNING FOR MORE THAN 30 YEARS.

THE SUBJECT SITE THAT IS THAT BROWN COLOR TO THE NORTH IS COMMUNITY MIXED USE-35 WHICH ALLOWS COMMERCIAL USES. FURTHER EAST OF THE SUBJECT SITE IS RESIDENTIAL 10 AND THAT'S THE ORANGE COLOR. THE PLANNING COMMISSION DID FIND THIS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TYPICALLY TO ALLOW NONRESIDENTIAL USES IN THE RESIDENTIAL 20 FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION, THE APPLICANT MUST MEET LOCATION CRITERIA. HOWEVER, DUE TO THE FACT THIS WAS ALREADY APPROVED FOR NONRESIDENTIAL USES IN 2016 THROUGH THE PREVIOUS PD, THERE IS A PROVISION IN THE PLAN THAT IT DOESN'T NEED TO MEET LOCATIONAL CRITERIA AGAIN AND IT AUTOMATICALLY CAN BE CONSIDERED FOR ADDITIONAL -- AND USES. [AUDIO BREAKING UP] -- ADDITIONALLY, IT'S WITHIN THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE SQUARE FOOTAGE FOR THIS FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION. THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING ABOUT 4,709 SQUARE FEET, AND MAXIMUM WOULD BE UP TO 7,650 WITH THAT F.A.R. AND SQUARE FOOTAGE SITE. AND THE SIZE OF THE SITE IN THIS AREA.

THE REQUEST TO ALLOW THE ADDITION OF A NEW BUILDING ON-SITE WHILE MAINTAIN THE EXISTING PROPOSED USE IS THE REASON FOR THIS PD. THE SUBJECT PARCEL CONTAINS 15,300 SQUARE FEET OR .35 ACRES.

I'LL NOW PASS IT ALONG TO JENNIFER MALONE. >>JENNIFER MALONE: JENNIFER MALONE WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION. THIS IS LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL TAMPA PLANNING DISTRICT AND THE WEST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE. IT IS EVACUATION ZONE E. THERE IS A TRANSIT STOP AT ESSENTIALLY ONE BLOCK SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE AT THE CORNER OF COLUMBUS DRIVE AND NORTH HABANA AVENUE SERVED BY HART ROUTE TEN. -- LOCATED ONE BLOCK TO THE NORTH OF THE SUBJECT SITE AND CLOSEST PUBLIC RECREATIONAL FACILITY. WE CAN SEE THAT ON THE AERIAL TO THE NORTH. THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE OUTLINED IN PURPLE. WE HAVE THE PARK TO THE NORTH, SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED ALONG WEST KATHLEEN STREET, HOWEVER, THERE'S AN OFFICE USE TO THE WEST OF THE SUBJECT SITE, TWO OFFICE USES, ACTUALLY, AND THEN THOSE COMMERCIAL USES ALONG WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE. THE SUBJECT SITE IS DESIGNATED COMMUNITY MIXED USE 35. IF THIS LOOKS FAMILIAR, IT'S BECAUSE IT CAME THROUGH WITH A PLAN AMENDMENT PROBABLY BEFORE YOU ABOUT A YEAR AGO, REQUESTING THAT DESIGNATION, AND IT WAS APPROVED AND ADOPTED TO THAT COMMUNITY USE 35. PLANNING COMMISSION DID FIND THIS CONSISTENT. THE DEVELOPMENT OF FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED DWELLING UNITS. FOUND THAT THE PROPOSED DWELLING UNITS THE WAY THAT THEY ARE ORIENTED TOWARDS HABANA AVENUE WITH THE AUTOMOBILE ENTRANCE BEHIND IT ON WEST KATHLEEN STREET IS PROMOTING MIXED USE CORRIDOR POLICIES. THE FRONT DOORS ARE LOCATED ALONG HABANA WITH A PEDESTRIAN ACCESS FROM THE SIDEWALK ON HABANA UP TO THE FRONT DOORS. THAT IS ABSOLUTELY CONSISTENT WITH OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES PROVIDING THAT SAFE PATHWAY TO THE AMENITIES LOCATED WITHIN THE WEST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROMOTES DEVELOPMENT PATTERN CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPACT CITY FORMED STRATEGY. THIS IS GOING TO ENCOURAGE INFILL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN PROXIMITY TO TRANSIT AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICES. I'LL ALSO NOTE IT IS LOCATED WITHIN THE WEST TAMPA URBAN VILLAGE AND ONE OF OUR POLICIES STATES THAT THIS IS WHERE THE CITY SHOULD DIRECT, QUOTE, THE GREATEST SHARE OF GROWTH, UNQUOTE. URBAN VILLAGES. SO THE PROPOSED PD WILL FURTHER THESE POLICIE AND WILL ALSO ENCOURAGE NEW HOUSING ON UNDERUTILIZED LAND AND IS IN THAT LONG-TERM DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ANTICIPATED UNDER THE COMMUNITY MIXED USE-35 FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION, WE FOUND IT WOULD CAUSE NO ADVERSE IMPACTS TO THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION, AND I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THANK YOU, JENNIFER. ANY QUESTIONS, GENTLEMEN? ALL RIGHT. ZAIN? >>ZAIN HUSAIN: THANK YOU SO MUCH. ZAIN HUSAIN, DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION. I AM SHARING MY SCREEN HERE. CASE REZ 21-41, THE APPLICANT IS ZACHARY ALVAREZ, REPRESENTATIVE NAME IS BROLIO GARALEZ. 3007 NORTH HABANA AVENUE. PROPOSED REZONING FROM PD PLANNED DEVELOPMENT RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED. THE OLD PD NUMBER REZ 20-67 TO NEW PD OF RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED. THERE ARE THREE NEW WAIVERS REQUESTED HERE. ALLOW FOR REDUCTION OF PARKING FROM NINE SPACES TO EIGHT. REDUCE NUMBER OF TREES ON A NON-WOODED SITE FROM -- NUMBER THREE, TO PAY INTO THE APPLICABLE PLANNING DISTRICT TREE TRUST FUND FOR MITIGATION TREES THAT CANNOT BE PLANTED ON-SITE. IF YOU SEE THE AERIAL RIGHT HERE ON THE SLIDE, YOU WILL SEE THE STRUCTURE PARCELS OUTLINED HERE IN RED. TO THE NORTH YOU HAVE WEST KATHLEEN STREET. TO THE SOUTH YOU HAVE WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE. RUNNING TO THE WEST NORTH AND SOUTH, YOU HAVE NORTH HABANA AVENUE AND ALSO TO THE EAST YOU'LL HAVE NORTH TAMPANIA AVENUE. IF YOU LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN HERE, YOU WILL SEE WHAT THE STRUCTURE, WHAT THE PROPOSED PD IS SHOWING. IT IS SHOWING TO ALLOW FOUR THREE-STORY TOWNHOMES HERE. THE SUBJECT SITE RIGHT NOW CONTAINS A TOTAL AREA OF 8,721 SQUARE FEET. THE PROPERTY CURRENTLY HAS APPROVED PD, REZ 20-67 FOR THREE RESIDENTIAL SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED UNITS. THE PROPOSED PARKING IS EIGHT SPACES WHEN THEY NEED NINE. AND THE PROPOSED SETBACKS ARE TO THE NORTH FIVE FEET, WEST 20 FEET, SOUTH FIVE FEET, AND EAST 29 FEET. THE MAXIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT IS PROPOSED AT 40 FEET. AND THE VEHICULAR ACCESS TO THE SITE WILL BE TO THE NORTH OF WEST KATHLEEN STREET. COMING UP TO THE SITE TOOK PICTURES. THE CURRENT STRUCTURE ON THE SITE. TO THE WEST OF THE SITE, YOU HAVE ARCHITECTURE DESIGN FIRM HERE. TO THE NORTH OF THE SITE, YOU HAVE A VACANT AND ALSO RESIDENTIAL. AND TO THE SOUTH OF THE SITE, YOU HAVE HABANA AUTO SERVICE SHOP. STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND FINDS THE REQUEST INCONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF TAMPA LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE. IN THE EVENT THAT CITY COUNCIL APPROVES THE REZONING APPLICATION, THE APPLICATION WILL NEED MODIFICATIONS BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND READING. THANK YOU. I'M HERE FOR ANY QUESTIONS IF NEEDED. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANY QUESTIONS, GENTLEMEN? ANY QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. WE'LL HEAR FROM THE APPLICANT. >> HELLO? HELLO? >>ORLANDO GUDES: I THINK WE HAVE TO SEE HIM PER THE RULES, CORRECT? THERE HE IS. OKAY. >> GOOD EVENING. ARE WE ALLOWED TO SPEAK NOW? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, WE'VE GOT YOU. SWORN IN, SIR? ARE YOU THE REPRESENTATIVE, SIR? >> YES, I AM. [OATH ADMINISTERED] >> I DO, YES. GOOD EVENING, MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL. BRAULIO GRAJALES WITH HIGH POINT ENGINEER. WEST CYPRESS STREET IN TAMPA AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN. I'M A PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA. I AM THE ENGINEER OF RECORD FOR THIS PROJECT. I WANT TO THANK ALL MEMBERS OF STAFF FOR THEIR HELP AND SUPPORT THROUGHOUT THE REZONING PROCESS. AS YOU KNOW, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY WAS BROUGHT BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL LAST YEAR FOR PD REZONING. THE PD PLAN INCLUDED THREE SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED UNITS. YOU APPROVED THE CURRENT PLAN LAST YEAR IN OCTOBER OF 2020. I BELIEVE YOU WERE PRETTY SATISFIED WITH THE PROPOSAL THAT OUR CLIENT BROUGHT BEFORE YOU LAST YEAR. SO DUE TO THE HIGH COST OF CONSTRUCTION BEING EXPERIENCING IN OUR ECONOMY, INCREASE OF BUILDING MATERIAL PRICES, THE PROPERTY OWNER, MR. ZACK ALVAREZ CAN NO LONGER REDEVELOP THE PROPERTY WITH THREE TOWNHOME UNITS. AND MAKE THE PROJECT FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE. MR. ALVAREZ IS PROPOSING TO REDEVELOP THE PROPERTY WITH FOUR TOWNHOME UNITS SO BY USING ECONOMIES OF SCALE, HE MIGHT BE ABLE TO DEVELOP FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE PROJECT. IN THE REZONING REQUEST, TRANSPORTATION FOUND THE SITE PLAN INCONSISTENT WITH CHAPTER 27. ALL OTHER DIVISIONS, INCLUDING DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION, PLANNING COMMISSION, NATURAL RESOUCES FIRE STORMWATER WASTEWATER, SOLID WASTEWATER AND URBAN DESIGN FOUND THE PROJECT, THE SITE PLAN CONSISTENT. THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE REQUIRES .25 PARKING SPACES PER UNIT. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT REQUIRES ONE PARKING SPACE FOR VISITORS. NEVERTHELESS TRANSPORTATION ALSO IN THEIR REPORT INDICATED THAT IN REGARDS TO THE PROMOTION OF EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE USE OF LAND AND INFRASTRUCTURE, THE PROPOSED CONFIGURATION REQUIRES MINIMAL WAIVERS THAT SHOULD NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD. I WAS A LITTLE SURPRISED WHEN MR. HUSAIN AT THE END OF HIS PRESENTATION INDICATED THAT THE SITE PLAN IS BEING FOUND INCONSISTENT. I HAVE HERE IN THE REPORT, I FOUND -- I FOUND THE FOLLOWING AT THE END OF THE PACKAGE WE RECEIVED. IT SAYS RECOMMENDATION, BASED ON THE ABOVE CONSIDERATION, CONSIDERATIONS -- EXCUSE ME, THAT WAS THE PLANNING COMMISSION. NEVER MIND. MY APOLOGIES. I MISREAD THAT PART. BUT, THEREFORE, WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR CONSIDERATION TO APPROVE THIS REZONING PETITION TO DEVELOP THIS PROPERTY WITH FOUR SINGLE-FAMILY ATTACHED UNITS. MR. ALVAREZ, DO YOU WANT TO ADD ANYTHING, ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO YOUR PROJECT AND YOUR POSITION ABOUT YOUR REQUEST? >>ORLANDO GUDES: HE NEEDS TO BE SWORN IN, SIR. VISUAL TOO. >> ZACK, ARE YOU THERE? >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: HE'S GOT TO DO VISUAL. >>THE CLERK: HE IS, BUT SOME REASON, I GUESS HE DOESN'T HAVE VIDEO CAPABILITY. >> YES, CAN I BE HEARD? >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE HAVE TO HAVE YOU VISUAL FOR THESE TYPE OF HEARINGS SIR. >> ZACK, DO YOU HAVE A CAMERA AVAILABLE. >> I AM. AND I AM ON MY PHONE AND HAVE BEEN SINCE 5:00. >>ORLANDO GUDES: IT WON'T WORK ON YOUR PHONE, SIR. >> OKAY, WELL, THEN I'M JUST OVER THE AUDIO. IF YOU RELY ON BRAULIO, I'M OKAY WITH THAT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE CAN'T ALLOW YOU TO SPEAK ON AUDIO WITHOUT SEEING YOU PHYSICALLY, SIR. >> AGAIN, WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE REQUIRES FOR THIS PROJECT ONE PARKING SPACE FOR VISITORS. THE TOTAL OF REQUIRED PARKING IE PROVIDED IN TWO SPACES IN THE PARKING GARAGE OF EVERY UNIT PLUS ONE PARKING SPACE FOR VISITORS THAT WE ARE SHORT. I HAVE, AND IF I MAY OBTAIN PERMISSION TO SHARE MY SCREEN, I HAVE PREPARED A SITE PLAN THAT SHOWS THE REASONS WHY WE DID NOT PROVIDE A PARKING SPACE FOR VISITORS. ARE YOU SEEING THE SITE PLAN? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YOU NEED TO ENLARGE IT. >> IS IT BETTER? >>ORLANDO GUDES: WE SEE IT. >> OKAY. SO THIS IS THE SITE PLAN, AND WE PREFER THIS PLAN THIS ALTERNATIVE PLAN FOR THIS MEETING TO INDICATE THE REASONS WHY WE DON'T THINK ADDING A PARKING SPACE FOR VISITORS ON THIS PROPERTY IS THE BEST ALTERNATIVE. CURRENTLY, THIS IS THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN, AS I INDICATED EARLIER, IT IS FOUR TOWNHOMES. ORIGINALLY, INSTEAD OF THE FOUR UNITS HERE, WE HAD VISITOR PARKING SPACE HERE. THAT'S HOW IT WAS APPROVED LAST YEAR. WE MAINTAIN THE SAME CONNECTION TO KATHLEEN ROAD AND WE MAINTAIN THE SAME ACCESS FOR THE PREVIOUSLY THREE UNITS, NOW FOUR UNITS. SO WE DON'T HAVE MUCH ROOM IN THE BACK OF THE UNITS OR ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE UNITS FACING KATHLEEN ROAD TO PUT VISITOR PARKING SPACE. THEREFORE, MY SUGGESTION, AS THE ENGINEER OF RECORD FOR THIS PROJECT WILL BE TO PUT, WHICH IS IN MY OPINION IS NOT THE BEST ALTERNATIVE, PUT A VISITOR PARKING SPACE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING, THE FOUR UNITS, BUT IT WILL TAKE ENTIRELY, THE ENTIRE LANDSCAPING, WHICH WILL BE PROVIDED ALONG HAVANA AVENUE. ALSO, BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF SPACE ON THE FRONT BUFFER, WHICH IS 20 FEET, AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, THERE IS NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE, LIKE A T-TURN OR LIKE A WAY TO NOT HAVING TO PUT TWO CURB CUTS. SO IN MY OPINION, THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE THAT I -- SO THE DEVELOPMENT WILL BE ABLE TO PROVIDE A VISITOR PARKING SPACE, WHICH WILL BE SPECIFICALLY LOCATED RIGHT HERE IN THIS AREA. WHERE THE CAR WILL PARK. IT'S RIGHT THERE. THAT'S WHERE A CAR WILL BE ABLE TO PARK. IF SOMEBODY COMES AND VISITS, THIS IS WHERE THE CAR COMES IN AND THIS IS WHERE THE CAR WILL GO OUT. TWO CURB CUTS AND A CIRCULAR DRIVE WHERE PEOPLE -- IT'S GOING TO BE DESIGNATED AS A VISITORS PARKING. MAYBE THE RESIDENTS WILL END UP USING IT AS A WAY TO PARK, INSTEAD OF GOING IN THE BACK OF THEIR PROPERTIES AND PARKING IN THE GARAGE, BUT THAT WILL BE THE ALTERNATIVE TO PROVIDE ONE VISITOR PARKING SPACE ON THIS PROPERTY. THEREFORE, WITH MY CLIENT, WE DECIDED TO PRESENT THE PROPOSAL, THE SITE PLAN THAT WE SUBMITTED FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AND VERY RESPECTFULLY, WE APPLY FOR THIS WAIVER WHICH TRANSPORTATION FINDS IT INCONSISTENT, BUT EVERYBODY ELSE FOUND THE PROJECT CONSISTENT. AGAIN, LIKE I SAID EARLIER, TRANSPORTATION INDICATED IN THEIR REPORT THAT IN REGARD TO THE PROMOTION OF EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE USE OF LAND AND INFRASTRUCTURE, THE PROPOSED CONFIGURATION REQUIRES MINIMAL WAIVERS THAT SHOULD NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD. SO THIS PROPOSAL, THIS PLAN B THAT I AM SHOWING RIGHT NOW ON THE SCREEN, I DON'T THINK THAT IS EFFICIENT AND THAT THOSE -- PROVIDE SUSTAINABLE USE OF THE LAND, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE WE ELIMINATE PRETTY MUCH THE ENTIRE LANDSCAPE FROM THE FRONT OF THE PROPERTY, THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER ABUTTING HABANA AVENUE. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ARE YOU DONE, SIR? >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: WHAT SIZE IS THAT LOT, SIR? >> IT IS .2 ACRES. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: FORGET THE ACREAGE. WHAT IS THE FOOTAGE FROM EACH SIDE EAST, WEST -- >> THE DIMENSIONS. 89 FEET ALONG KATHLEEN ROAD AND IT IS 98 FEET ALONG HABANA AVENUE. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR MORE THAN YOU CAN FIT IN AND THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T HAVE THE PARKING? THAT KIND OF THING, YOU HAVE FOUR UNITS, THE UNIT WILL BE, WHAT, 22 FEET WIDE? >> THE UNITS ARE 20, 21 -- YEAH, 20 FEET WIDE. 21 FEET. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THE TREES ARE ALL BEING REMOVED, RIGHT? >> THE EXISTING TREES, YES, IT WILL BE REMOVED. THERE IS A -- ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE PROPERTY. AND THEN THERE ARE THREE LAUREL OAK TREES IN A REALLY BAD SHAPE DUE TO THE OVER-PRUNING BECAUSE OF THEIR LOCATION UNDER THE POWER WIRES THAT ARE IN REALLY BAD SHAPE. IN FACT, THEY NEED TO -- THEY ARE SICK AND THEY NEED TO BE REMOVED. >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: IN MY OPINION ONLY, I THINK YOU CAUSED YOUR OWN PROBLEM BECAUSE YOU'RE TRYING TO PUT A GALLON OF WATER INTO A QUARTER AND IT DOESN'T FIT. >>ORLANDO GUDES: MR. DINGFELDER, YOU'RE RECOGNIZED. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: I'M STARTING TO SCARE MYSELF BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE, LIKE CHARLIE MIRANDA, I'M BEGINNING TO REMEMBER THESE THINGS. AND THIS ONE WAS HERE NOT TOO LONG AGO, ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, I REMEMBER THE YOUNG COUPLE THAT OWNED THE PROPERTY, AS I RECALL OR THEY WERE BUYING THE PROPERTY AND THEY WERE ASKING FOR THREE UNITS. >> CORRECT. >>JOHN DINGFELDER: AND WE APPROVED THREE UNITS. IT WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A STRETCH FOR THAT NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT IT IS A TRANSITIONAL USE AS YOU GO IN IMMEDIATELY OFF OF COLUMBUS AND NEXT TO AN AUTO SHOP, AND THAT'S WHY I THINK I FELT COMFORTABLE AT THE TIME GRANTING THREE UNITS. THEY SEEMED VERY EXCITED TO BE ABLE TO GET APPROVAL OF THOSE THREE UNITS AND NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT FOUR UNITS. I GUESS I WOULD ASK YOU AS THEIR REPRESENTATIVE, YOU KNOW, WHAT CHANGED BETWEEN LAST YEAR AND NOW TO GO FROM THE THREE UNITS THAT COUNCIL ALREADY APPROVED TO THE FOUR UNITS. AS MR. MIRANDA INDICATED, PUTTING A LOT MORE CONCRETE AND ET CETERA ON THE SAME PROPERTY THAT WAS HERE A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. MY SECOND QUESTION IS, STANDARD RESIDENTIAL MAXIMUM, AS YOU KNOW, IS 35 FEET, AND YOU INDICATED THIS WOULD BE 40 FEET. SO THAT CONCERNS ME A LITTLE BIT, TOO, BECAUSE NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE A LARGER TOTAL MASS FOR THIS -- THESE FOUR UNITS, WE NOW HAVE A LARGER MASS PLUS HEIGHT, WHICH EQUALS EVEN THE LARGER MASS. WITHOUT ANY BREATHING SPACE BETWEEN THE UNITS. I'M NOT REALLY SURE IT'S THE WELCOMING FEATURE FOR THIS OTHERWISE SINGLE-FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD. >>ORLANDO GUDES: ANYONE ELSE? >>JOHN DINGFELDER: THAT'S SORT OF A QUESTION, MR. GRAJALES. >> THANK YOU. AM I OKAY TO RESPOND NOW? >>ORLANDO GUDES: YES, SIR, YOU CAN RESPOND TO THE QUESTION. >> THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. SO WITH REGARD TO YOUR QUESTION ABOUT WHAT CHANGED FROM LAST YEAR TO THIS YEAR, LAST YEAR ZACK AND HIS WIFE BROUGHT THIS PROPOSAL BEFORE YOU WITH THREE UNITS. WHAT HAS CHANGED FROM LAST YEAR TO THIS YEAR IS INFLATION, COST OF MATERIALS, COST OF CONSTRUCTION. UNFORTUNATELY, ZACK I GUESS IS NOT ABLE TO PARTICIPATE TONIGHT BECAUSE OF HIS TECHNOLOGICAL SITUATION OR TECHNOLOGICAL ISSUES. HE HAS DISCUSSED THIS PROJECT WITH -- TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY REALTORS. I DON'T HAVE THE EXACT NUMBER. I KNOW HE HAS DISCUSSED THIS PROJECT WITH AT LEAST A COUPLE OF BUILDERS. AND THE NUMBERS THAT HE HAS RECEIVED ARE IN HIS OWN WORDS, OUTRAGEOUS, VERY EXPENSIVE TO BUILD, VERY EXPENSIVE TO DEVELOP. HE SEES THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADD A FOURTH UNIT AND ESPECIALLY WITH THE AREA FROM THE PREVIOUS SITE AVAILABLE, THE ARCHITECT INDICATED THAT HE COULD FIT FOUR UNITS WITH THE DIMENSIONS WE'RE SHOWING RIGHT NOW. OBVIOUSLY, WITH THE CAVEAT THAT THE PARKING SPACE FOR VISITORS WILL HAVE TO BE EITHER PUT IN THE FRONT OR SACRIFICED. IN REGARDS TO THE QUESTION ABOUT HEIGHT, THE HEIGHT IS NOT SET IN STONE. RIGHT NOW, WHAT HE IS PROPOSING, HIS PROPOSAL, AND I BELIEVE YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU IN THE PACKAGES WE SUBMITTED THE PROPOSED BUILDING ELEVATIONS. SO HE WANTED TO PROVIDE AN ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT OF THE FOUR UNITS, MODERN, VIBRANT DESIGN WITH ROOFTOPS THAT WILL BE FACING DOWNTOWN. IT WILL BE A NICE FEATURE FOR THE RESIDENTS, THE FOUR RESIDENTS OF THE UNANIMOUS THAT WILL HAVE EVERY NIGHT OR WHEN THEY DESIRE TO GO UP ON THE ROOFTOP AND SEE THE SKYLIGHT OF DOWNTOWN. SO THAT'S WHAT INITIATED THE HEIGHT, WHICH HASN'T CHANGE. BY THE WAY, THE HEIGHT HAS NOT CHANGED FROM LAST YEAR'S REQUEST TO THIS YEAR'S REQUEST. THE HEIGHT WAS MAINTAINED THE SAME. IT WAS JUST THE EXTRA UNIT. AGAIN, DUE TO INFLATION AND THE COST OF CONSTRUCTION, THAT HE DECIDED TO BRING THIS BEFORE YOU. DING THE HEIGHT AND I SORT OF RECALL THAT DISCUSSION LAST TIME IN REGARD TO THE HEIGHT, BUT THE FACT THAT THE TOTAL MASS OF THE STRUCTURE HAS INCREASED AN ADDITIONAL UNIT, WITH THE ADDITIONAL HEIGHT MEANS THAT, YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF EXACERBATED BY THE HEIGHT. THAT'S MY POINT. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, MR. COUNCILMAN. AND LIKE I SAID, THE HEIGHT IS NOT SET IN STONE. RIGHT NOW, WHAT WE HAVE IS ONLY ON PAPER. THE BUILDING ELEVATIONS THAT WE SUBMITTED, AND IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WILL HELP THE COMMISSION TO CONSIDER OUR REQUEST TO HAVE FOUR UNITS, WE CAN DEFINITELY GO BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD AND HAVE A LOWER HEIGHT, MAYBE LIKE 35 FEET TO PERHAPS CHANGE THE PERCEPTION OF THIS PROJECT BEFORE YOU. >>ORLANDO GUDES: I HAVE A TON OF QUESTIONS, BUT YOU REALLY CAN'T ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BECAUSE THE APPLICANT IS NOT ON THE SCREEN TO ANSWER THEM. I'M CONFUSED BY THIS WHOLE PROJECT. I'M GOING TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. THE HEIGHT. YOU SAY THAT WE APPROVED THREE. YOU COME BACK WITH FOUR. YOU SAY INFLATION, AND YOU ADD A UNIT. USUALLY YOU DOWNSIZE WHEN YOU HAVE COSTS THAT ARE AFFECTING A PROJECT. AGAIN, YOU CAN'T ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS. I'M TOTALLY CONFUSED OF THIS WHOLE PROJECT. MR. MIRANDA, DO YOU WANT TO BE RECOGNIZED SIR? >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I UNDERSTAND. ALSO, I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TODAY CAN HAPPEN TOMORROW ALL OVER THE CITY. AND I'M NOT HERE TO -- THAT'S HIS PREROGATIVE TO HAVE THIS PLAN, BUT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THIS SAME PLAN HERE -- THERE WOULD BE A HUNDRED PEOPLE HERE. I'M NOT AGAINST THESE INDIVIDUALS, BUT I UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DO. THEY HAD A GOOD PLAN BEFORE. YES SIR. >> IF I MAY ADD, I KNOW IT MIGHT BE A LITTLE CONFUSING WHY WE ARE COMING BACK FROM LAST YEAR TO THIS YEAR WITH THREE TO FOUR, AND WHAT MY CLIENT HAS EXPLAINED TO ME, WHAT HE'S LOOKING FOR IS TO OFFSET THE INCREASE ON CONSTRUCTION PRICES OR COST OF MATERIALS -- >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: EXCUSE ME FOR INTERRUPTING YOU. I AM ONLY SPEAKING FOR MYSELF. I CAN'T PASS SOMETHING BASED ON THE COST OF LUMBER. COST OF CONSTRUCTION. LUMBER IS WHAT IT IS. I CAN'T DO THAT. ANYBODY CAN BUILD WHAT THEY WANT IF THEY USE IT AS A REASON. >>ORLANDO GUDES: THERE ARE A LOT OF QUESTIONS THAT YOU REALLY CAN'T ANSWER AND YOUR CLIENT CAN'T COME BEFORE US TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS.
