10:16NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES DEPARTMENT

10:17EARNS THE SECOND FOUR-STAR

10:20REACCREDITATION BY THE AMERICAN

10:21ASSOCIATION OF CODE ENFORCEMENT

10:23AND I SEE MR. CAPEZZUTO IS

10:25ALREADY AT THE PODIUM.

10:27MR. CAPEZZUTO.

10:27>> YES, MA'AM, YOU SAID WE HAD A

10:29FULL AGENDA SO I WANTED TO JUMP

10:30RIGHT UP.

10:31GOOD AFTERNOON, VICE MAYOR,

10:32COUNCIL, FOR THE RECORD, CARMEN

10:33CAPEZZUTO, DIRECTOR OF

10:34NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES, AND I'M

10:35HERE TO PROVIDE THAT UPDATE ON

10:39THAT REACCREDITATION FOR 2026.

10:42SO THE STORY TAKES US BACK TO

10:442016 IN MY VISION BACK THEN AS

10:47IT REMAINS THE SAME NOW IS VERY

10:48SIMPLE.

10:49I WANTED TO CULTIVATE AND

10:51OPERATE AN ORGANIZATION SIMILAR

10:53TO THE NEW YORK YANKEES.

10:54SO THAT WOULD BRING TROUBLE

10:56LOOKS FOR MY STAFF NOT KNOWING

10:58WHAT I MEANT AT THE TIME SO I

11:00HAD TO EXPLAIN TO THEM THAT THEY

11:01ARE A LEGENDARY AND HISTORIC

11:03PROFESSIONAL SPORTS TEAM THAT

11:04COMPETES EVERY YEAR FOR

11:06CHAMPIONSHIPS.

11:06AND SO THE YANKEES, THEY DO

11:07WHATEVER IT TAKES EVERY YEAR TO

11:09RECRUIT AND RETAIN THE BEST IN

11:12THE BUSINESS TO FIELD, TO FIELD

11:14THEIR TEAM.

11:15AND THEN THEY STRIVE TO PROVIDE

11:17A CULTURE OF EXCELLENCE.

11:19>> EXCUSE ME, MADAM MAYOR, I

11:20DON'T WANT TO INTERRUPT YOU, BUT

11:21THAT THE SINGLE BEST ANALOGY I

11:23HAVE SEEN ON THE ENTIRE TIME ON

11:24COUNCIL, GOOD -- AND I JUST HAVO

11:27COMPLIMENT YOU FOR IT.

11:28>> [LAUGHTER]

11:29>> WELL I HAVE TO CAVEAT THAT

11:30NOW I'M A KID FROM OHIO SO I

11:31ROOT FOR THE CLEVELAND TEAMS.

11:34WHICH ARE STILL GOING TONIGHT.

11:38ANYWAY.

11:38BUT COUNCILMAN, THE POINT IS NOW

11:3910 YEARS LATER I BELIEVE WE'VE

11:41ACHIEVED THAT VISION OF

11:42EXCELLENCE AND WE'RE HERE TO

11:44CELEBRATE OUR SECOND

11:46REACCREDITATION FROM THE

11:47AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF CODE

11:50ENFORCEMENT.

11:51SO THE JOURNEY OF THIS ACCREDITS

11:53STARTED 7 -- ACCREDITATION

11:54STARTED SEVEN YEARS AGO WHEN THE

11:56DIVISION STARTED SEEKING THIS

11:58AWARD ACHIEVEMENT IF YOU WILL

12:01FROM ACE.

12:01WE WERE THE FIRST IN FLORIDA AT

12:04THE TIME AND THEN THE THIRD IN

12:05THE NATION AND STILL TO THIS

12:06DAY, THERE ARE ONLY 11

12:08ACCREDITED CODE ENFORCEMENT

12:09AGENCIES IN THE NATION SO THE

12:13ACCREDITATION INCLUDES 113

12:16POLICIES AND STANDARD OPERATING

12:16PROCEDURES AND LEER IS A LOOK OF

12:18KIND OF WHAT THOSE LOOK LIKE IN

12:19OUR SYSTEM.

12:22AND I'LL EXPLAIN WHY THEY'RE

12:25IMPORTANT.

12:26WE MET 55 STANDARDS TO ACHIEVE

12:28THIS AND SCORED 166 OUT OF 200

12:32TOTAL POINTS TO RECEIVE

12:32FOUR-STAR ACCREDITATION.

12:33THESE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

12:34SERVE AS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR

12:35DEPARTMENT, AND THEY PROVIDE

12:36CONSISTENCY TO OUR

12:39OPERATIONS: THEY DEFINE WHAT WE

12:41DO BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY WHY WE

12:44DO IT.

12:45PART OF OUR PROCESS ARE ONGOING

12:48PEER REVIEWS AND PROFESSIONAL

12:49DEVELOPMENT, SO PEER REVIEWS ARE

12:52A GREAT WAY THAT WE BENCHMARK

12:53HOW WE OPERATE WITH OTHER CITIES

12:54THAT ARE SIMILAR TO US, WHETHER

12:56IN POPULATION OR IN, IN

12:59DEMOGRAPHICS.

12:59ON THE LEFT IS A PICTURE OF A

13:01TRIP, SOME OF OUR STAFF TOOK TO

13:02THE CITY OF PALM BAY TO

13:04COLLABORATE AND COMPARE NOTES.

13:05AND ON THE RIGHT THIS IS AN

13:09EXAMPLE OF ONE OF OUR

13:10CERTIFICATION TRAINING COURSES

13:13WHERE WE REQUIRE NEW, NEW CODE

13:15OFFICERS TO ACHIEVE ONE

13:17CERTIFICATION WITHIN THEIR FIRST

13:1818 MONTHS OF EMPLOYMENT BECAUSE

13:19THEIR WORK IS THAT IMPORTANT.

13:21THEY HAVE TO KNOW WHAT THEY'RE

13:22DOING AND THE LAWS BEHIND IT.

13:27THIS IS SNAPSHOT OF OUR CASE

13:28MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, BUILT BY OUR

13:30WONDERFUL I.T. DEPARTMENT.

13:31AND I SAY THAT BECAUSE THE

13:32SYSTEM IS SO EASY TO USE EVEN I

13:34CAN USE IT AS A GEN-XER.

13:38THE SYSTEM ALLOWS US TO VIEW ANY

13:40PERTINENT INFORMATION ON A CODE

13:41CASE TO GIVE A COMPLETE AND

13:43ACCURATE HISTORY OF OUR TEAM'S

13:45EFFORTS.

13:45WE GENERATE APPROXIMATELY 20,000

13:48CODE CASES ANNUALLY WITH OUR 18

13:50CODE OFFICERS, AND THROUGH THE

13:52HELP OF OUR ADMINISTRATIVE

13:54STAFF, WE ACHIEVE COMPLIANCE

13:56APPROXIMATELY 90% OF THE TIME.

13:57AND CURRENTLY WE HAVE OVER 2200

14:00ACTIVE CODE CASES THROUGHOUT THE

14:02CITY WHICH YOU WILL SEE ON OUR

14:03MAP.

14:03AND THE MAP HERE ALLOWS

14:05MANAGEMENT TO SEE WHERE WE MIGHT

14:06HAVE GAPS IN COVERAGE.

14:08IT ENSURES THAT WE REMAIN 80% OR

14:13MORE PROACTIVE IN OUR EFFORTS TO

14:14MAINTAIN PRISTINE NEIGHBORHOODS,

14:15AND OUR GOAL IS TO ALWAYS HAVE A

14:17CODE CASE OPENED AND BEING

14:19MONITORED BEFORE THAT COMPLAINT

14:21OR THAT REQUEST EVER COMES IN

14:22FROM THE PUBLIC.

14:23IT'S NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE BUT WE

14:25KNOW THAT THE PUBLIC DO NOT LIKE

14:27TO REPORT CODE VIOLATIONS SO WE

14:28TRY TO HAVE A CASE ON THESE

14:31PROPERTIES BEFORE IT BECOMES A,

14:33AN EYE SORE.

14:35AND SO THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THIS

14:36MAP HAS REALLY HELPED US ACHIEVE

14:38OUR GOAL OF ENSURING OUR SERVICE

14:41AREA IMPACT THROUGHOUT THE

14:41ENTIRE CITY SARKS CHRNLG LAIT --

14:43WHICH IS A LARGE CITY.

14:44AND AS I WRAP UP, NUB OF THIS

14:47WORK GETS DONE WITHOUT THE TEAM

14:48BEHIND ME, MANY OF THEM ARE IN

14:50THE ROOM TODAY.

14:52GIVEN A CITY OF OUR SIZE, WE

14:54HAVE TO BE EFFICIENT.

14:55WE HAVE NO CHOICE WITH 18 CODE

14:56OFFICERS AND 125 SQUARE MILES WE

14:58MUST BE EFFICIENT, AND THAT'S

14:59WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT.

15:02TO THAT END WE'RE A RESULTS

15:04DRIVEN ORGANIZATION AND WE

15:05STRIVE EVERY DAY TO BE 1% BETTER

15:07THAN WE WERE THE DAY BEFORE.

15:09AND SO I LIKE TO SAY THAT WE ARE

15:11RULES DRIVEN WITH EXCELLENCE IN

15:13MIND ALWAYS.

15:15SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

15:16I TRULY APPRECIATE THE HONOR OF

15:18LEADING THIS TEAM, AND I AM

15:20EXCITED TO SEE HOW GREAT WE CAN

15:22BECOME INTO THE FUTURE.

15:23SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

15:30[APPLAUSE]

15:32>> SO I'M GLAD WE'RE RESULTS

15:33DRIVEN.

15:33YOU SAID WE RECEIVED 176 OUT OF

15:35THE 200, SO HOW ARE WE GETTING

15:36TO THE 24?

15:38>> WE'RE GOING TO ASK OUR

15:39ACCREDITATION MANAGER TO COME UP

15:40AND EXPLAIN THAT.

15:41NO.

15:42[LAUGHTER]

15:43SO TO MY KNOWLEDGE, WE HAVE,

15:46AACE HAS NEVER GIVEN OUT A

15:47FIVE-STAR ACCREDITATION.

15:49>> WE'RE GOING TO BE FIRST.

15:50>> THAT IS THE GOAL.

15:52THE GOAL.

15:53THE GOAL IS FIVE-STAR.

15:55>> WE HAVE BEEN FIRST FOR MANY

15:56OTHER THINGS SO THIS WON'T BE A

15:57DIFFICULT ISSUE.

15:58I'M GOING TO READ THE PLAQUE

35:26PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND

35:27ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, SIR.

35:31>> YES, DANA BENNETT, 218

35:34SOUTHEAST WALLS TERRACE IN PORT

35:35ST. LUCIE.

35:35I JUST WANTED TO CONGRATULATE

35:37NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES ON THEIR

35:40ACCREDITATION.

35:40I HAVE LIVED IN TOWN FOR ABOUT

35:4316 YEARS.

35:43I'VE USED THEM A FEW TIMES IN

35:46FACT I BELIEVE CARMEN'S VERY

35:47FAMILIAR WITH ME.

35:50BUT I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT THEY

35:53HAVE ALWAYS BEEN VERY RESPONSIVE

35:55TO EVERYTHING THAT I HAVE

35:57COMMUNICATED WITH THEM, AND I

36:00JUST FIND THAT THE, THEY HAVE A

36:02VERY DIFFICULT JOB.

36:05SOMETIMES I THINK THEY'RE HAVE

36:06MORE DIFFICULT JOB THAN THE

36:08POLICE DEPARTMENT BECAUSE THEY

36:08HAVE TO DEAL WITH SOME ANGRY

36:11PEOPLE.

36:11I SEE IT ON SOME OF THESE WEB

36:14SITES ABOUT THE JUNK CARS OR

36:16CARS WITHOUT REGISTRATIONS, AND

36:18STUFF LIKE THAT.

36:19I DON'T WANT TO SEE THIS TOWN

36:21BECOME LIKE A GHETTO.

36:23AND THEY'VE BEEN DOING SUCH A

36:26GOOD JOB ONE OF THE ISSUES

36:28LATELY IS BECAUSE OF THE GARBAGE

36:30WHERE YOU ONLY HAVE ONE BULK

36:32PICK-UP A MONTH, PEOPLE BRING

36:34STUFF OUT AND THEY PUT IT OUT

36:35THERE AND IT SITS THERE FOR

41:35THANK YOU, COUNCILWOMAN MORGAN.

41:38>> THAT'S WHY YOU'RE MAYOR PRO

41:40>> I THOUGHT WE WERE JUST

41:41CHANGING IT UP.

41:42>> BRIDGET KEEN WITH THE

41:42PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT.

41:43I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN AND THE

41:45FILE WAS GIVEN TO THE CITY

41:46CLERK'S OFFICE FIVE DAYS BEFORE

41:47THIS MEETING.

41:48AND I AM REQUESTING THAT IT BE

41:50ENTERED INTO THE RECORD.

41:51SO THIS IS THE FIRST AMENDMENT

41:53TO THE CITY CENTER PUD.

41:59OKAY SO THE APPLICANT IS THE

42:00CITY OF PORT ST. LUCIE'S

42:02COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY.

42:04THE AGENT IS CULPEPPER

42:06INTERPRET, THE CITY IS THE

42:07PROPERTY OWNER, AND THE CITY

42:10CENTER PUD AS WAS MENTIONED IS

42:11LOCATED EAST OF U.S. HIGHWAY 1

42:13IT'S ON THE WEST SIDE, WEST OF

42:16SOUTHWEST VILLAGE GREEN DRIVE

42:16AND THEN IT'S SOUTH OF WALTON

42:20ROAD.

42:22NOW TO THE NORTH OF IT IS THE

42:27MIDPORT PLACE COND MIPIUMS, WEST

42:29IS VILLAGE, THE VILLAS OF

42:30VILLAGE GREEN, AND THEN TO THE

42:33EAST IS OPEN SPACE AND THEN

42:35FURTHER SOUTH FROM THAT IS

42:38SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL.

42:41FUTURE LAND USE IS RHR -- RHI

42:45AND CG, THAT'S COMMERCIAL

42:48GENERAL, HIGH DENSITY

42:49RESIDENTIAL AND INSTITUTIONAL.

42:52AND JUST TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE

42:54BIT BACKGROUND ON THE PROJECT,

42:56THE CITY CENTER PROJECT IS NOW

42:57KNOWN AS WALTON AND ONE, IT DID

43:01BEGIN IN 2005 AND IT WAS A

43:04PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP TO

43:05REDEVELOP THE OUTDATED VILLAGE

43:06GREEN SHOPPING CENTER INTO A

43:09TRADITIONAL TOWN HALL OR TOWN

43:10CENTER WITH A MIX OF USES.

43:12AND THE VISION FOR THE CITY

43:14CENTER IT IS CONTAINED IN THE

43:17REDEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE

43:17ORIGINAL CRA, AND IT DOES

43:19IDENTIFY THAT CITY CENTER IS

43:20MEANT TO BE THE CENTRAL

43:22GATHERING PLACE FOR EASTERN PORT

43:25ST. LUCIE.

43:25SO THE SITE IS APPROXIMATELY OR

43:27THE PUD IS APPROXIMATELY

43:2969 ACRES.

43:31IT DOES PROVIDE FOR THAT MIX OF

43:32USES T. DOES BASE THE MIX OF

43:33USES EVERYTHING IS ON AN URBAN

43:36BLOCK DESIGN AND IT HAS WALKABLE

43:38STREETS AS WELL AS THE CIVIC

43:40USES AND OPEN SPACE.

43:41IT IS APPROVED FOR 932

43:44MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL UNITS.

43:48208,500 SQUARE FEET OF RETAIL.

43:50AND RESTAURANT SPACE, 393,000

43:52SQUARE FEET OF OFFICE SPACE, AS

43:54WELL AS 150 HOTEL ROOMS AND THEN

43:57THE 750 SEATS CIVIC CENTER.

43:59SO JUST A IT LAL BITS OF THE

44:02BRIEF HISTORY -- THE SITE WORK,

44:05THE PONDS, ROADWAYS, THE SEWER

44:06AND WATER LINES, AND OTHER

44:08UTILITIES, THEY WERE

44:09CONSTRUCTED, THEY ARE IN PLACE,

44:10AND THAT HAPPENED BETWEEN ABOUT

44:142007 AND 2008, AND THAT WAS TO

44:16SERVE THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.

44:18NOW THE CIVIC CENTER IT'S NOW

44:20KNOWN AS MID-FLORIDA EVENT

44:21CENTER, THAT WAS CONSTRUCTED BY

44:22THE CITY AS WELL AS A SIX-STORY

44:27PARKING GROKS, I SHOULD SAY THE

44:30CITY AND THE CRA.

44:31THE INTERACTIVE FOUNTAIN THEY

44:31WERE ALL CONSTRUCTED AND THEY

44:32ARE, THEY WERE COMPLETED IN

44:362008.

44:36NOW DUE TO THE GREAT RECESSION

44:37AND SOME OTHER FACTORS, THAT

44:39PRIVATE SECTOR COMPONENT OF THE

44:42CITY CENTER PUD STALLED IN AND

44:44WAS NEVER DEVELOPED.

44:47SO IN 2022, THE CITY DID ACQUIRE

44:49THE 22 PARCELS IN THE CITY

44:51CENTER PUD THAT WERE ORIGINALLY

44:54OWNED BY THE ORIGINAL PRIVATE

44:56PARTNER AND THAT DID MAKE THE

44:58CITY THE OR DOES MAKE THE CITY

45:00NOW THE PRIMARY PROPERTY OWNER

45:02OF THE PUD AS WELL AS, PROPERTY

45:04IN THE PUD AS WELL AS THE MASTER

45:06DEVELOPER.

45:06THEN THE CITY DID AFTER

45:08OBTAINING THESE PROPERTIES, THE

45:10CITY DID ENGAGE WITH THE

45:11TREASURE COAST REGIONAL PLANNING

45:13COUNCIL TO THE PREPARE THE

45:14MASTER PLAN FOR WAWLTDEN -- WALD

45:18ONE AND THEN IN 2025 THE CITY

45:19AND THE CRA ENTERED INTO A

45:20DEVELOPMENT AND FUNDING

45:22AGREEMENT AS WELL AS AN

45:24OPERATING AND NONRELOCATION

45:26AGREEMENT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION

45:28AND CONTINUED OPERATIONS OF A

45:316,000 SEAT SPORTS STADIUM.

45:33AND THAT IS GOING TO BE LOCATED

45:35ON CITY OWNED PROPERTY THAT'S IN

45:37THE PUD.

45:37AND JUST TO POINT OUT THESE

45:39AGREEMENTS WERE STRUCTURED SO

45:41THAT THE CITY RETAINS OWNERSHIP

45:44OF THE UNDERLYING LAND THEREBY

45:49GRANTING THE GRANT LEASE AGREEM.

45:53IT DOES REVISE THE DEVELOPMENT

45:55ENTITLEMENTS OR USES APPROVED

45:56FOR THE PUD BY REDUCING OFFICE

45:59SPACE -- OFFICE SPACE FROM

46:01393,000 SQUARE FEET TO 250,000

46:03SQUARE FEET.

46:05IT DOES REMOVE A 25,000 SQUARE

46:08FOOT OF GOVERNMENT OFFICE SPACE

46:09AND THAT WAS ORIGINALLY

46:11INTEMEDDED FOR A STAND ALONE --

46:14INTENDED FOR A STAND ALONE

46:15POLICE SUBSTATION AND THEN WITH

46:16THAT IT ADDS 6,000 SEAT SPORTS

46:18STADIUM TO THE PUD, AND THEN IT

46:20IDENTIFIES THAT THAT SPORTS

46:21STADIUM IS GOING TO BE LOCATED

46:23ON BLOCK 2 OF THE PUD, AND AS I

46:26MENTIONED, IT IS ON CITY OWNED

46:28PROPERTY, THE CITY IS THE OWNER

46:31OF BLOCK 2.

46:32NOW, THERE ARE SOME OTHER

46:33CHANGES AND ONE OF THOSE CHANGES

46:35IS THE ADDITION OF ADDING A

46:38SPORTS STADIUM LED DISPLAY BOARD

46:39SCORE BOARD TO THE PUD.

46:41NOW THE PUD DOES SET A MAXIMUM

46:45HEIGHT OF 75 FEET AND THIS PUD

46:46AMENDMENT WILL SET A MAXIMUM

46:48HEIGHT OF 90 FEET FOR THE SPORTS

46:51STADIUM LED DISPLAY BOARD SCORE

46:53BOARD.

46:53AND I JUST WANT TO PIEPT OUT

46:54THAT SOME MAXIMUM HEIGHT THAT

46:56DOESN'T MEAN THAT THAT'LL BE THE

46:58EXACT HEIGHT THAT'LL COME IN

47:00RIGHT NOW THE SCORE BOARD ON THE

47:02SITE PLAN IS SHOWING IN AT

47:0485 FEET, AND IT COULD BE LESS.

47:05THIS IS JUST, IT CAN'T EXCEED 9.

47:08IT DOESN'T MEAN IT WILL

47:10NECESSARILY BE BUILT TO THAT

47:12HIGH A, A, HEIGHT.

47:15NOW THE INCREASE IN HEIGHT, OUR

47:18CODE DOES ALLOW THERE PROJECTS

47:19WITH OR FOR ZONING DISTRICTS

47:22WHEN, WITH NOT HABITABLE

47:24STRUCTURES THERE DOES ALLOW FOR

47:25AN INCREASE OF UP TO 25% OF THE

47:29MAXIMUM HEIGHT ALLOWS SO THIS

47:30DOES MEET THAT REQUIREMENT.

47:33THE AMENDMENT ALSO ADDS A

47:35MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 135 FEET FOR

47:37THE SPORTS STADIUM LIGHTING AND

47:38JUST TO POINT OUT THIS IS JUST

47:40THE LIGHTING FOR THE SPORTS

47:41FIELD IT'S NOT GOING TO BE THE

47:43STREET LIGHTS.

47:43IT'S JUST THE SPORTS STADIUM

47:45LIGHTING.

47:46NOW PER THEIR DESIGN TEAM, THE

47:48135-FOOT HEIGHT FOR STADIUM

47:51LIGHTING POLES IT IS CONSISTENT

47:53WITH INDUSTRY STANDARDS FOR

47:56COMPARABLE STADIUMS AND IT DOES

47:58ESSENTIAL TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE

48:00LIGHT LEVELS AND UNIFORM

48:02COVERAGE ACROSS THE PLAYING

48:04FIELD.

48:04NOW THE TALLER MOUNTING HEIGHT

48:06DOES ALLOW FOR THE LIGHT TO BE

48:08DISTRIBUTED MORE EVENLY REDUCING

48:12SHADOWS AND MINIMIZING GLARE FOR

48:13THE PLAYERS, OFFICIALS AND THE

48:17SPECTATORS.

48:17NOW THERE ARE MAKING SOME CHAIGZ

48:19TO THE CONCEPT PLAN, AND THE

48:21MAIN CHANGE IS IT'S CHANGING THE

48:23DEPICTION OF THE USES ON BLOCK

48:252.

48:25NOW THE SPORTS STADIUM WILL

48:28INCOMISH ALL OF BLOCK 2 RIGHT

48:30NOW BLOCK 2 IS TWO PARCELS THAT

48:32INCLUDES THAT FOUNDERS LANE

48:34THAT'S IN THE MIDDLE OF THEM SO

48:36AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, THIS IS THE

48:37AREA THAL YIET TALKING ABOUT IN

48:39GREEN THAT IS FOUNDERS CROSSING.

48:40THIS IS THE LOCATION OF THE

48:42STADIUM IN YELLOW.

48:43FOUNDERS CROSSING WILL GO AWAY

48:46WITH THE ASSOCIATIONED SUBDWGZ

48:48PLAT FOR THE PROJECT.

48:50THIS IS THE NEW CONCEPT PLAN AND

48:52SHIS THOUGHS -- THIS SHOWS THE

48:55OUTLINE FOR THE SPORTS STADIUM.

48:57NOW AS I MENTIONED THERE IS AN

48:59ASSOCIATED SUBDIVISION PLAT

49:00APPLICATION.

49:00THERE IS ALSO AN ASSOCIATED SITE

49:04PLAN APPLICATION THAT IS

49:05SCHEDULED FOR THE OCTOBER 26th

49:06CITY COUNCIL MEETING.

49:09AND THERE IS AN AMENDMENT TO THE

49:10MASTER SIGN PROGRAM AND THAT IS

49:12ON TODAY'S AGENDA.

49:16AND THE PROPOSE SAID APPLICATIO-

49:19PROPOSED APPLICATION WAS

49:20REVIEWED AND OBJECTIVE 1.110

49:22DOES SAYS THE CITY MAY CONTINUE

49:25TO IDENTIFY AREAS OF THE CITY IN

49:26NEED OF REDEVELOPMENT TO

49:28PRESERVE PROPERTY VALUES AND

49:30ENCOURAGE LIVABLE NEIGHBORHOODS

49:32AND THEN POLICY 1.1102 DOES SAY

49:36THE CITY WILL WORK TO IMPLEMENT

49:37THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMNT

49:39MASTER PLAN INCLUDING SUPPORT

49:40FOR CITY CENTER.

49:43NOW STAFF DID REVIEW THIS FOR

49:46IMPACTS AND THE INFRASTRUCTURE

49:47AS I MENTIONED THE ROADWAYS, THE

49:49UTILITIES LINES, WATER LINES,

49:51ET CETERA, THEY'RE ALL IN PLACE.

49:53THEY HAVE BEEN IN PLACE SINCE

49:562008, RIGHT, AND THEN THE

49:57TRAFFIC STUDY IT HAS BEEN

50:00PREPARED BY McKINSEY

50:01ENGINEERING IT WAS REVIEWED BY

50:02THE CITY'S PUBLIC WORKS

50:03DEPARTMENT AND THE CITY'S THIRD

50:06PARTY CONSULTANT.

50:08IT IS BASICALLY WE HAVE IT NOW

50:09THERE ARE SOME A COUPLE OF

50:10CHANGES THAT NEED TO BE MADE.

50:12WE WILL HAVE IT SUBMITTED IN

50:14TIME FOR THE ADOPTION HEARING ON

50:17OCTOBER 26th ALONG WITH AN

50:20UPDATED PUBLIC WORKS TRAFFIC

50:22MEMO.

50:22NOW THE, THE PROPOSED TRAFFIC

50:24STUDY IT DUSHOW THAT THESE PUD

50:27CHANGES WILL RESULT IN A

50:29DECREASE IN NET EXTERNAL TRIPS

50:31AS AND AS NOTED IN THE PUBLIC

50:33WORKS TRAFFIC MEMO.

50:34NOW, WHEN IT COMES TO THIS

50:39STADIUM AND STADIUM DAYS WE ARE

50:40HAVING THE APPLICANT'S

50:42TRAFFIC -- APPLICANT PROVIDE AN

50:44UPDATED OPERATIONS PLAN FOR THE

50:47SOCCER STADIUM OR THE SPORTS

50:49STADIUM, AND THAT'S GOING TO BE

50:51FOR GAME DAYS AND SPECIAL EVENTS

50:52AND THAT IS WHAT WAS PREPARED

50:55WITH IMPACT OR NOT IMPACT, WITH

50:57REVIEW BY THE CITY'S POLICE

50:59DEPARTMENT AND THE CITY'S PUBLIC

51:02WORKS DEPARTMENT THAT IS ALMOST

51:06FINALIZED THAT WILL BE SUBMITTED

51:08WHEN THE CITY COMES TO YOU ON

51:10OCTOBER TWINSTH.

51:11PLANNING AND -- 26th.

51:12PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD DID

51:13RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE PD

51:16PLAN AMENDMENT AT THE

51:18OCTOBER 2026 PLANNING AND ZONE

51:19BOARD MEETING AND PLANNING STAFF

51:20DOES RECOMMEND APPROVAL.

51:21I WILL SAY THIS IS THE PUBLIC

51:23HEARING BECAUSE IT'S A PUD SO WE

51:26DO HAVE THE TEAM HERE.

51:27WE HAVE THE CRA TEAM AND WE ALSO

51:29HAE THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM HERE

51:30IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS.

51:32AND STAFF IS HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY

51:34QUESTIONS.

51:34>> THAT'S GREAT.

51:35THANK YOU, MS. KEEN.

51:36IS ANY MEMBER OF COUNCIL HAVE

51:38ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF?

51:41OKAY.

51:42JUST WANTED TO SINCE YOU'RE UP

51:43HERE AND I KNOW WE HAVE

51:44MR. BARRIOS ALSO HERE, I JUST

51:46WANTED TO KIND OF PROVIDE THE

51:47PROCESS AND THEN THAT WAY

51:49BECAUSE THIS IS OBVIOUSLY

51:50CREATING A LOT OF DISCUSSION.

51:52>> YES.

51:52>> SO THE CONTRACT THAT WE ARE

51:54WITH, WE CURRENTLY UNDER

51:55CONTRACT FOR THE STADIUM WITH

51:58THE, WITH THE TEAM.

52:00SO THIS IS JUST THE FORMALITY OF

52:02THIS PART MOVING FORWARD.

52:05BUT THIS THE SOCCER STADIUM THIS

52:07ISN'T, THIS PUD ISN'T WHETHER OR

52:08NOT THE SOCCER STADIUM IS GOING

52:10MOVER FORWARD.

52:11THAT WAS ALREADY DONE IN THE

52:12ORIGINAL AGREEMENT AND CONTRACT

52:13WITH THE APPLICANT IS THAT

52:15CORRECT?

52:16>> CORRECT, THIS GETS THE ZONING

52:17RIGHT FOR THE SITE PLAN TO MOVE

52:19FORWARD.

52:20>> RIGHT.

52:20AND THEN ESSENTIALLY OUR MASTER

52:22PLAN HAD DIFFERENT BUILDINGS AND

52:24WE HAVE TO BY FORMAL PROCESS

52:27CHANGE THAT MASTER PLAN TO ADOPT

52:29THE BUILDINGS AND WHERE THEY'RE

52:30LOCATED IS THAT CORRECT?

52:35>> YES THE MASTER PLAN AND PUD

52:36BECAUSE IT WAS VERY SPECIFIC PER

52:38BLOCK PER BLOCK PER BLOCK HOW IT

52:39WAS DESIGNED SO THAT'S WHY WE

52:40ALSO UBMENDED THE CONCEPT PLAN

52:42AND -- AMENDED THE CONCEPT PLAN

52:43AND CLARIFIED AND ADDED THE

52:45SPORTS STADIUM I WOULD GO ON BLK

52:492.

52:49>> I COULD SEE HOW THE PUBLIC

52:50MAY CONFUSE IT AND SAY WELL YOU

52:53COULD STILL SAY NO WELL ACTUALLY

52:56YEAR UNDER CONTRACT WITH THEM

52:56AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT

52:57IT'S UNDERSTOOD.

52:58AND THEN THE SITE PLAN.

52:58JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE

53:00UNDERSTAND.

53:01IS THAT ANYTHING DIFFERENT

53:02WHENEVER WE HAVE A SITE PLAN FOR

53:05A COMMERCIAL PROPERTY OR ANY

53:06OTHER SITE PLAN, TRAFFIC STUDY

53:08AND TRAFFIC ANALYSIS IS ALWAYS

53:14IN THE SITE PLAN PORTION.

53:15>> RIGHT SO WHAT WE DID HERE

53:16WITH THIS PROJECT IS WE HAVE THE

53:18LARGER BUILD-OUT OF CITY CENTER

53:21TRAFFIC ANALYSIS THAT IS ALREADY

53:22BEEN REVIEW WE HAVE THAT NEEDED

53:23A FEW TWEAKS BUT IT WILL GET TO

53:25YOU BY OCTOBER 26th.

53:26BUT SINCE THE SPORTS STADIUM IS

53:29KIND OF, IT DOESN'T HAVE YOUR

53:31DAILY TRIPS, WE LOOKED AT THIS

53:34MORE AS AN OPERATIONS PLAN.

53:37TO HOW TO HANDLE THE TRAFFIC

53:38THAT GOES TO THE GAME, LEAVES

53:39THE GAME, AND THAT IS WHAT IS

53:42FOCUSED ON.

53:43THAT IS WHAT IS REVIEWED BY PD

53:46AND THAT'S WHAT'S REVIEW BY

53:48PUBLIC WORKS.

53:48>> EXCELLENT AND THAT'S

53:49IMPORTANT BECAUSE THAT MEANS WE

53:50WENT A STEP ABOVE AND BEYOND OF

53:53THE CRITICAL REQUIREMENT OF SITE

53:54PLAN AND WE'RE LOOKING AT THE

53:55OPERATIONAL PLAN AS WELL?

53:57AGAIN, FOR FULL TRANSPARENCY,

53:59WHEN SITE PLAN IS REVIEWED THERE

54:00IS A SITE PLAN REVIEW COMMITTEE.

54:02AND THE PUBLIC CAN ATTEND THAT

54:04MEETING IF THEY WOULD LIKE TO AS

54:06WELL, AND I'M SURE COUNCIL WILL

54:07BE LOOKING VERY CLOSELY AT THE

54:08SITE PLAN REVIEW TO MAKE SURE IT

54:10COMPLIES WITH THE TRAFFIC

54:13REQUIREMENTS THAT THE PUBLIC HAS

54:20SHARED.

54:21JUST FOR THE RECORD BECAUSE

54:23THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF

54:24DISCUSSION ON TRAFFIC AND

54:25CONCERNS WITH TRAFFIC, FROM OUR

54:26AGREEMENT, WHEN WILL THE GAMES

54:27USUALLY BE HELD, AND HOW MANY

54:30GAMES DO YOU TYPICALLY SEE

54:32HAPPENING?

54:32THANK YOU.

54:36>> TYPICALLY THE GAMES ARE HELD

54:38ON SATURDAYS.

54:38THOSE ARE REGULATED BY THE USL,

54:40AND OUR UNDERSTANDING WHEN WE

54:42ENTERED INTO AGREEMENT IS THAT

54:43THERE ARE ABOUT 17 HOME GAMES A

54:48YEAR EXCLUDING IF THERE IS A

54:49CHAMPIONSHIP OR PLAYOFF

54:50SITUATION.

54:51>> AND ON SATURDAYS THEY'RE

54:52USUALLY PLAYED DURING THE DAY,

54:53EVENING, WHEN DO YOU USUALLY

54:54FIND THAT THEY'RE BEING PLAYED?

54:56>> WE'RE AWARE THEY'RE TYPICALLY

54:597:00 P.M. IN THE EVENING AND RUN

55:00FOR TYPICALLY 90 MINUTES OR SO.

55:02>> OKAY, THANK YOU.

55:02AND THEN MR. SCHWARTZ I JUST

55:06HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR YOU.

55:12>> GOOD AFTERNOON.

55:13>> GOOD AFTERNOON, I KNOW YOU

55:14DON'T HAVE THE TRAFFIC STUDY IN

55:15FRONT OF YOU BUT WITH YOUR

55:18EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE, IF

55:20GAMES ARE ON SATURDAY EVENINGS,

55:22HOW MUCH DO YOU FORESEE TRAFFIC

55:24BEING A PROBLEM, ESPECIALLY WHEN

55:26CONSIDERATION OF EVENTS SIMILAR

55:30OF SIZE.

55:30>>> SO IN CONSIDERATION OF

55:32EVENTS SIMILAR IN SIZE I WOULD

55:33SAY IT WOULD BE SIMILAR TO WHAT

55:35WE SEE FOR THE FREEDOM FEST.

55:36AS FAR AS NUMBER OF PEOPLE I

55:38ACTUALLY ATTENDING AND THAT IS

55:40IF THE STAYEDIUM IS AT FULL

55:42MIX -- STADIUM IS AT FULL MAX

55:43CAPACITY DURING GAME DAYS AND

55:44THEN IT WOULD ALSO BE SIMILAR TO

55:46MAX CAPACITY AS WELL FOR ANY

55:47KIND OF SPECIAL EVENTS.

55:49SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING CLOSELY

55:50WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND

55:52THE CONSULTANT TO WORK UP

55:54BASICALLY TIERED SET OF TRAFFIC

55:56MANAGEMENT PLANS THAT WOULD GO

55:58INTO EFFECT, AND THAT'S SOME OF

55:59THE MINOR COMMENTS THAT ARE

56:00BEING WORKED OUT NOW.

56:02SO SAY YOU HAVE A THOUSAND

56:03PEOPLE IN ATTENDANCE THAT WOULD

56:05TRIGGER THIS CERTAIN TRAFFIC

56:06MANAGEMENT PLAN OR IF YOU HAVE

56:096,000 TRIGGER DIFFERENT TRAFFIC

56:10MANAGEMENT PLAN.

56:11WE'RE ALSO WORKING WITH THE OUR

56:15TRAFFIC SIGNAL COORDINATION

56:16CONSULTANT TO SEE IF THERE IS

56:18ANY ADDITIONAL ENHANCEMENTS THAT

56:19WE CAN TURN ON FOR THE TRAFFIC

56:21SIGNALS RIGHT AROUND WALDEN AND

56:23ONE DURING GAME DAY AND SPECIAL

56:26EVENTS.

56:26>> THANK YOU.

56:35>> ON GAME DAYS WHEN WE

56:37IMPLEMENTED THE OPERATIONAL

56:38TRAFFIC PLAN, THE APPLICANT

56:40SOCCER TEAM WILL BE PLAYING FOR

56:42THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, IS THAT

56:43CORRECT?

56:43NO TAX FUNDS WILL BE INCURRED

56:45FOR OUR CITIZENS, CORRECT?

56:46>> GREAT QUESTION.

56:49>> YES, SIR.

56:49>> AS PART OF THE OPERATIONS

56:51AGREEMENT, IT IS THE TEAM'S

56:52RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY FOR ALL

56:54THOSE SERVICES SO THE

56:54IMPLEMENTATION OF THAT TRAFFIC

56:56AND OPERATIONS PLAN, IT WILL BE

56:57ON THE TEAM TO PAY FOR THAT.

56:58IT DOES NOT COME OUT OF THE

57:00CITY'S GENERAL FUND TO PAY FOR

57:03THAT.

57:16>> GEN WE TALKED ABOUT THE

57:16FUNDING AGREEMENT AND THIS IS

57:17PART OF THE OVERALL PROCESS, BUT

57:18I WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S CLEAR

57:19THAT CONTRACT DOESN'T TAKE AWAY

57:20COUNCIL'S ABILITY TO USE THEIR

57:22DISCRETION ON THIS APPLICATION.

57:23YOU STILL APPLY THE CRITERIA FOR

57:25NORMAL LIKE EVERY OTHER

57:27QUASI-JUDICIAL.

57:27>> ABSOLUTELY.

57:28THANK YOU.

57:32ANYTHING ELSE?

57:33OKAY, TWEEL GO AHEAD.

57:34PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW OPEN.

57:35MS. LEWIS I PROMISE THIS IS IT

57:36LAST TIME I WILL MAKE YOU GET

57:38YOUR STEPS IN.

57:38PLEASE COME FORWARD.

57:50>> THANK YOU, I'M DR. WILHEMINA

57:53LEWISSED I HAVE THE PLEASURE OF

57:54SERVING AS CEO FOR FLORIDA

57:56COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS.

57:57WE ARE A NONPROFIT HEALTH CENTER

57:58HEALTH CARE PROVIDER AND HAVE

58:00BEEN SERVING ST. LUCIE COUNTY

58:01FOR 50 YEARS.%

58:01WE EMPLOY ABOUT THREE 50

58:03INDIVIDUALS AND WE CARE FOR

58:04ABOUT 50,000 PATIENTS ANNUALLY.

58:07ABOUT 25,000 OF OUR PATIENTS AND

58:08HALF OF OUR EMPLOYEES ARE IN

58:10ST. LUCIE COUNTY.

58:13WE ON OWN THE PROPERTY AT 9576 .

58:15HIGHWAY 1 WHICH IS LOCATED

58:17IMMEDIATELY ACROSS THE STREET TO

58:18THE WEST OF THE PROPOSED

58:21STADIUM.

58:21THERE OUR PROPERTY -- OUR

58:22PRACTICE IS CALLED PORT

58:23ST. LUCIE WOMEN AND CHILDRENS

58:25AND WE PROVIDE OB/GYN,

58:28PEDIATRIC, PHARMACY, AND LAB

58:30SERVICES.

58:30THIS LOCATION IS NOT PART OF THE

58:32PUD, HOWEVER, WE ALSO OWN ABOUT

58:352 ACRES IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO

58:36THE PRACTICE TO THE NORTH, WHICH

58:37ARE IN THE PUD.

58:39THIS LAND WAS PURCHASED FOR THE

58:41FUTURE EXPANSION OF THE PRACTICE

58:42AND WILL ALSO INCLUDE CARE FOR

58:45SENIORS.

58:45WE HAVE NO ISSUE WITH THE

58:48CONSTRUCTION OF THE STADIUM.

58:49OUR CONCERN IS RELATED TO

58:51PARKING.

58:51AS A PART OF THE PUD, WE HAVE

58:54SHARED USE OF PARKING AND WANT

58:56TO ENSURE THE PRESERVATION OF

58:58ADEQUATE AND CONVENIENT PARKING

58:59FOR OUR PATIENTS.

59:01THE CONCEPT PLAN SHOWS 75% OF

59:03THE PARKING TO THE EAST OF THE

59:05STADIUM.

59:06THIS IS TOO FAR AWAY TO BE

59:09PRACTICALLY USABLE FOR PREGNANT

59:10WOMEN, PARENTS OF INFANTS AND

59:12CHILDREN, ILL PATIENTS, AND

59:13SENIOR CITIZENS.

59:15THERE IS ONE GARAGE ON THE

59:16CONCEPT DESIGN TO THE NORTH OF

59:18THE PLAN STADIUM, BUT IT TOO IS

59:20INCONVENIENT FOR OUR PATIENT

59:22POPULATION DUE TO DISTANCE.

59:24ON THE CURRENT CONCEPT DESIGN,

59:26THERE IS AN EMPTY LOT TO THE

59:28SOUTH OF THE WESTERNMOST GARAGE

59:29WHICH WOULD BE MORE CONVENIENT

59:31AND PRACTICALLY USABLE FOR OUR

59:34PATIENTS.

59:34FOR THE CURRENT CONCEPT PLAN IS

59:36USED, WE REQUEST THAT THE

59:38NORTHWEST PARKING GARAGE

59:39LOCATION BE SHIFTED SOUTHWARD TO

59:42CREATE MORE CONVENIENT AND

59:44PRACTICALLY USABLE, PRACTICALLY

59:45ACCESSIBLE PARKING FOR OUR

59:47PATIENTS.

59:47IF THE CURRENTLY DEPICTED

59:49PARKING LOCATIONS ARE MODIFIED,

59:51WE ASK THAT THE PLANNED GARAGES

59:53BE LOCATED TO ENSURE ADEQUATE

59:55AND CONVENIENT ACCESS TO PARKING

59:56FOR THE PREGNANT WOMEN, PARENTS

59:59OF NEWBORNS AND CHILDREN, AND

1:00:01SENIOR CITIZENS WHO WILL BE

1:00:03ACCESSING OUR MEDICAL CARE.

1:00:04THANK YOU.

1:00:06>> THANK YOU.

1:00:06ANY OTHER COMMENTS FROM THE

1:00:09PUBLIC?

1:00:10SEEING NONE, I'LL GO AHEAD AND

1:00:12CLOSE PUBLIC TO BE HEARD.

1:00:13MR. CITY MANAGER, JUST QUICK

1:00:14QUESTION.

1:00:15TODAY WE'RE DISCUSSING THE

1:00:17STADIUM ITSELF BUT IF THE

1:00:19CONCERNS THAT MS. LEWIS HAS

1:00:20NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, I'M SURE

1:00:22THAT THE PUD LATER ON WILL HAVE

1:00:24TO REFLECT THE PARKING CHANGE

1:00:25AND THAT COULD ALWAYS COME BACK

1:00:27AT A LATER CONVERSATION AS YOU

1:00:29MOVE FORWARD WITH THOSE

1:00:30DECISIONS.

1:00:30>> YEAH, WE WILL BE REVIEWING

1:00:32THE CONCEPT, THE PARKING

1:00:34CONCEPT.

1:00:34WE'LL TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION

1:00:36BUT CERTAIN DECISIONS HAVE TO BE

1:00:37MADE ON THAT SITE.

1:00:40WE DID MEET WITH THIS FACILITY

1:00:42FOR A PURCHASE OF THE FACILITY,

1:00:44BUT WE WERE NOT ABLE TO COME TO

1:00:46ANY RESOLUTION ON THE PURCHASE

1:00:48BUT YES THE TEAM WASERARY

1:00:49INTERESTED IN PURCHASING -- WAS

1:00:50VERY INTERESTED IN PURCHASING

1:00:51THAT FACILITY AND WERE NOT ABLE

1:00:52TO.

1:00:52BUT THAT WOULD'VE BEEN A GREAT

1:00:54POSSIBILITY, AND REALLY BE ABLE

1:00:55TO EXPAND THE FACILITY, BUT AT

1:00:57THIS POINT IN TIME WE WERE NOT

1:00:59ABLE TO WORK OUT AN AGREEMENT

1:01:02BUT WE ARE STILL BE MOVING MOVED

1:01:07AND AND WE ARE PLANNING THE

1:01:08FUTURE FOR A FUTURE PARKING

1:01:08SITE.

1:01:09IT IS NOT GOING TO BE AS CLOSE

1:01:10TO THAT FACILITY BUT THAT'S

1:01:11BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE SITE BLAN

1:01:12IS GOING TO WORK OUT.

1:01:13SO I DON'T WANT TO MAKE ANY

1:01:15PROMISES THAT WE'RE GOING TO

1:01:16HAVE A PARKING GLAWTION RIGHT

1:01:18NEXT TO THE HER FACILITY --

1:01:20PARKING GARAGE RIGHT NEXT TO HER

1:01:21FACILITY BUT WE WILL TAKE THAT

1:01:22INTO CONSIDERATION.

1:01:24>> I DO TINK IT'S A LITTLE EARLY

1:01:25AS WELL JUST TO SHARE TOO FOR

1:01:28FULL TRANSPARENCY, EACH AREA,

1:01:29EACH POD WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE

1:01:30MASTER PLAN AS THINGS DEVELOP,

1:01:31THEY'LL, IF THEY DON'T DEVELOP

1:01:33EXACTLY HOW THEY'RE IN THE

1:01:34MASTER PLAN, EACH INDIVIDUAL POD

1:01:35WILL HAVE TO COME BACK FOR A PUD

1:01:38AMENDMENT CHANGE JUST LIKE

1:01:39WHAT'S BEING DONE TODAY FOR FULL

1:01:43DUS CLOSURE AND AS FAR AS THE

1:01:44PARKING AND I ENVISION IN THIS

1:01:46SITE, MA'AM I'M NOT PUTTING ON

1:01:48ANY IDEAS BUT I'M SURE THERE ARE

1:01:50GOING TO BE OTHER WAYS TO

1:01:52TRANSPORT PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE

1:01:53SITE BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO BE A

1:01:54LARGE SITE.

1:01:54THERE IS PROBABLY GOING TO BE A

1:01:55LOT OF ACTIVITY, AND SO I DON'T,

1:01:59AGAIN WE'RE GOING WAY AHEAD OF

1:02:00WHAT THAT COULD LOOK LIKE, BUT I

1:02:03DEFINITELY THINK THE COUNCIL

1:02:04TAKES YOUR COMMENTS INTO

1:02:06CONSIDERATION, AND IF AND WHEN

1:02:06THE TIME COMES FOR YOU TO

1:02:07DEVELOP YOUR SITE, I'M SURE THAT

1:02:10WE WILL DISCUSS FURTHER ON HOW

1:02:11TO HELP ACCOMMODATE THAT

1:02:13SITUATION WHEN IT, IF IT

1:22:15ENFORCEMENT OF THE SIGN

1:22:16ORDINANCE TO SET SIGN STANDARDS

1:22:18APPLICABLE TO THE PIP DISTRICT,

1:22:23REGULATIONS FOR TEMPORARY SIGNS

1:22:25TO ESTABLISH TEMPORARY SIGN

1:22:26STANDARDS FOR THE PIP DISTRICT.

1:22:27AND AMENDING SECTION 154.03

1:22:31LANDSCAPE DESIGN STANDARDS TO

1:22:33ESTABLISH FACADE LAND SCAPE

1:22:34REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PIP

1:22:36DISTRICT.

1:22:36AND AMENDING SECTION 121.02

1:22:40PERMITTED LOCATIONS TO UPDATE

1:22:41MOBILE FOOD TRUCK LOCATIONS AND

1:22:42STANDARDS TO INCLUDE THE PIP

1:22:44DISTRICT.

1:22:44PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS,

1:22:47PROCEEDING FOR CODIFICATION, AND

1:22:49PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

1:22:51>> GOOD AFTERNOON, MADAM VICE

1:22:54MAYOR, COUNCIL, STAFF, AND

1:22:56PUBLIC.

1:22:56MY NAME IS MARY SAVICH DUNHAM.

1:22:59I'M HERE TO PRESENT A ZONING

1:23:01TEXT AMENDMENT P 26-080.

1:23:06SO THIS IS A CITY INITIATED TEXT

1:23:08AMENDMENT TO ESTABLISH THE

1:23:10PLANNED INDUSTRIAL PARK OR AS WE

1:23:12CALL IT PIP ZONING DISTRICT.

1:23:15THE PURPOSE OF THE PIP ZONING

1:23:17DISTRICT IS TO ESTABLISH AREAS

1:23:19FOR THE DEVELOPMENT AND

1:23:20MAINTENANCE OF INDUSTRIAL OR

1:23:22BUSINESS PARKS.

1:23:24NOW, IN LAYMAN'S TERMS, THE

1:23:27COUNCIL HAS SAID OUR JOBS

1:23:28CORRIDOR IS ALMOST DONE.

1:23:30WHERE IS JOBS CORRIDOR 2.0?

1:23:33THIS TEXT AMENDMENT IN ADDITION

1:23:33WITH YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN YOU

1:23:35HAVE A PIP LAND USE, THOSE TWO

1:23:40REGULATIONS TOGETHER PROVIDE YOU

1:23:41THE TOOLS TO SUPPORT A JOBS

1:23:44CORRIDOR IN OTHER AREAS OF THE

1:23:47CITY.

1:23:49SO AGAIN, THE PIP TEXT AMENDMENT

1:23:51PROVIDES CLEAR GUIDELINES FOR

1:23:53INCREASED COMMERCIAL AND

1:23:55INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT, TO

1:23:56SUPPORT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND

1:23:59ULTIMATELY ALSO DECREASE THE

1:24:00LAND AVAILABLE FOR RESIDENTIAL

1:24:03DEVELOPMENT.

1:24:03IT WOULD INCREASE TAX REVENUE

1:24:05AND SUPPORT THE DEVELOMENT OF

1:24:07INDUSTRIAL AND BUSINESS PARKS.

1:24:10SO OUR REQUEST IS TO NOT ONLY

1:24:12ESTABLISH THE PIP ZONING

1:24:14DISTRICT BUT WE ALSO UPDATED

1:24:16OTHER SECTIONS OF THE CODE THAT

1:24:18PIP WOULD INTERACT WITH.

1:24:20FOR EXAMPLE, THE TEMPORARY

1:24:23COMMERCIAL KITCHENS AND FOOD

1:24:25TRUCKS, WE ADDED PIP DISTRICT IN

1:24:27THERE.

1:24:28THE SIGN STANDARDS AND TEMPORARY

1:24:30SIGNS SIZE.

1:24:31THE FACADE LANDSCAPE

1:24:32REQUIREMENTS FOR PIP DISTRICT.

1:24:34THEY DON'T HAVE ANY.

1:24:35BUT IF WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE IT

1:24:36WE HAVE TO PUT IT INTO THE CODE.

1:24:38AND WE UPDATED MOBILE FOOD TRUCK

1:24:40LOCATIONS AND STANDARDS TO

1:24:41INCLUDE THE DISTRICT.

1:24:45SO ADDED THIS PIP ZONING

1:24:47DISTRICT WOULD PROVIDE A

1:24:49PREDICTABLE REGULATORY PROCESS

1:24:49WITH CLEAR GUIDELINES.

1:24:51THE PROPOSED PERMITTED USES

1:24:53INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO

1:24:56INDUSTRIAL, MANUFACTURING,

1:25:00WAREHOUSE, LOGISTICS,

1:25:00DISTRIBUTION, RESEARCH AND

1:25:02DEVELOPMENT, OFFICE PARK, HOTEL,

1:25:04AND MULTIFAMILY DWELLINGS,

1:25:05BECAUSE THE COUNCIL HAS SAID YOU

1:25:07WANT THE ABILITY TO HAVE HOUSING

1:25:09NEAR THE JOBS, SO THIS TEXT

1:25:13AMENDMENT SPECIFICALLY PROVIDES

1:25:13FOR VERTICAL MULTIFAMILY

1:25:16DEVELOPMENT NOT MORE THAN 15,

1:25:201-5, PERCENT OF THE GROSS AREA

1:25:21OF THE DISTRICT.

1:25:23SO IT DOES HAVE LIMITS BECAUSE

1:25:25WE DON'T WANT TO JUST HAVE

1:25:29RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT BUT

1:25:30WE'RE FOLLOWING THE DIRECTION OF

1:25:33COUNCIL.

1:25:34NOW, THIS NEXT AMENDMENT ALSO

1:25:35PROVIDES GUIDELINES FOR SITE

1:25:38DESIGN, FOR EXAMPLE, THERE IS A

1:25:39500-FOOT BUILDING LINE SETBACK

1:25:41ADJACENT TO RESIDENTIAL LAND USE

1:25:43OR DEVELOPMENT.

1:25:44THERE'S AN 80-FOOT LANDSCAPE

1:25:45BUFFER, WITH A 15-FOOT BERM WITH

1:25:50LANDSCAPE, AGAIN, ADJACENT TO A

1:25:53RESIDENTIAL LAND USE OR

1:25:54DEVELOPMENT.

1:25:54IF IT WAS JUST INTERNAL TO THE

1:25:57SITE OR ADJACENT TO INDUSTRIAL

1:25:59FOR EXAMPLE IT'S A 10-FOOT

1:26:02SETBACK.

1:26:02THERE'S REQUIREMENTS TO LOCATE

1:26:03AND SCREEN EQUIPMENT, AWAY FROM

1:26:06RESIDENTIAL AND OPEN SPACE AREAS

1:26:07AND INTERNAL TO THE SITE.

1:26:09AGAIN, THERE'S DARK SKY LIGHTING

1:26:12REQUIREMENTS AND THERE'S OTHER

1:26:14SITE DESIGN STANDARDS WITHIN

1:26:15THIS TEXT AMENDMENT.

1:26:20WE ALSO WERE LOOKING AT

1:26:22PROVIDING CLEAR GUIDELINES BUT

1:26:23WE ALSO WANT TO BE FLEXIBLE.

1:26:24BECAUSE THIS IS FOR INDUSTRIAL

1:26:25AND BUSINESS PARKS.

1:26:28SO WE PUT IN SOME REQUIREMENTS

1:26:31FOR ACCESS AND WE PROVIDED FOR

1:26:33ADMINISTRATIVE RELIEF SO NOT

1:26:35EVERY CHANGE OR DEVIATION HAS TO

1:26:37COME BACK TO THE COUNCIL OR THE

1:26:40BOARD.

1:26:40SO MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENTS, WE

1:26:42ADDED A REQUIREMENT THAT THEIR

1:26:44MAIN ACCESS MU BE FROM A

1:26:45COLLECTOR OR ARTERIAL ROADWAY.

1:26:48AND THAT'S BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT

1:26:49SOMEONE TO BUILD THE WORKFORCE

1:26:51HOUSING BUT TO HAVE THE PEOPLE

1:26:52HAVE TO DRIVE THROUGH A 30-ACRE

1:26:54INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT TO GET TO

1:26:57THERE THEIR COMPLEX.

1:26:58SOMETIMES IT'S NOT GOOD TO HAVE

1:26:59ALL THE RESIDENTIAL AND

1:27:01INDUSTRIAL TRAFFIC CO-MINGLED.

1:27:03WE DID ALSO ADD A PROVISION THAT

1:27:06THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR AND

1:27:07PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR MAY

1:27:09APPROVE LIMITED TECHNICAL

1:27:10ADJUSTMENTS REGARDING

1:27:12LANDSCAPING, PARKING, AND

1:27:14ACCESS.

1:27:14THERE'S ALSO PROVISION THAT IF A

1:27:19PROPONENT FOR THEIR PARTICULAR

1:27:20PROJECT PROVIDES AN ANALYSIS

1:27:22THAT DEMONSTRATE THAT THEIR

1:27:24PARKING CHARACTERISTICS ARE

1:27:25DIFFERENT THAN WHAT OUR CODE

1:27:27REQUIRES, THERE'S AN ABILITY TO

1:27:27GO TO SPRC AND GET THAT APPROVED

1:27:32APPROVED.

1:27:33SO THIS PROPOSAL IS CONSISTENT

1:27:36WITH THE COMP PLAN.

1:27:37IT IMPLEMENTS COMP PLAN POLICY

1:27:411.1.4.3, WHICH REQUIRES US TO

1:27:43PROVIDE FOR OUR INDUSTRIAL LAND

1:27:45USES.

1:27:45IT ESTABLISHES A PREDICTABLE BY

1:27:47RIGHT ZONING OPTION FOR PIP LAND

1:27:50USE, IT SUPPORTS TARGED

1:27:52INDUSTRIES AND VALUE ADDED

1:27:54ECONOMIC ACTIVITY, AND IT

1:27:55ENABLES DEVELOPMENT OF MASTER

1:27:57PLANNED AND JOINT EMPLOYMENT

1:27:59CENTERS OR JOBS CORRIDORS.

1:28:01THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD

1:28:03RECOMMENDED APPROVAL AT THEIR

1:28:06JULY 7th, 2026, PLANNING AND

1:28:07ZONING BOARD MEETING, AND WITH

1:28:09THAT, MY PRESENTATION IS

1:28:11CONCLUDED.

1:28:11HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS.

1:28:13>> COUNCIL, ANY QUESTIONS?

1:28:18NONE?

1:28:19SO MS. SAVICH DUNHAM, THANK YOU

1:28:20FOR THE PRESENTATION.

1:28:21I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT YOU

1:28:23KNOW WE HAD A, YOU AND I HAD A

1:28:25GREAT CONVERSATION IN REGARDS TO

1:28:26THIS TEXT AMENDMENT, AND YOU

1:28:28EXPLAINED TO ME THAT IT WAS A

1:28:29LONG OVERDUE TEXT AMENDMENT

1:28:30THAT'S BEEN NEEDED FOR THE CITY.

1:28:34AND I ALSO SHARED CONCERNS

1:28:36BECAUSE WE DO KNOW THAT THE

1:28:38INDUSTRIAL LANDSCAPE OF THE

1:28:39STATE AND OF THE COUNTRY IS

1:28:42CHANGING, AND I WOULD LIKE FOR

1:28:43YOU TO, I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO

1:28:45CONFIRM THAT WE ARE PROACTIVELY,

1:28:46BECAUSE I SEE THIS ALSO AS A

1:28:48PROACTIVE OPPORTUNITY, TO ENSURE

1:28:50THAT ANY TEXT AMENDMENT TO THIS

1:28:52PARTICULAR TYPE OF LAND USE

1:28:54INCLUDES PROTECTIONS FOR THE

1:28:58PUBLIC MOVING FORWARD.

1:28:59WOULD YOU SAY THAT STAFF CAME UP

1:29:01WITH SOLUTIONS TO THOSE

1:29:04CHALLENGES?

1:29:04>> THAT'S GREAT QUESTION.

1:29:05AND I WOULD SAY MS. GRUBBS PUT A

1:29:08GREAT DEAL OF EFFORT AS WELL AS

1:29:09OTHER STAFF IN THE DEPARTMENT,

1:29:10BUT KUDOS TO MS. GRUBBS.

1:29:12THIS TEXT AMENDMENT HAS MANY

1:29:14DESIGN STANDARDS.

1:29:15I MENTIONED A FEW BUT THERE IS

1:29:17ALSO A REQUIREMENT FOR ANY

1:29:18PROJECT THAT COMES IN TO SUBMIT

1:29:20A NOISE STUDY.

1:29:21FOR EXAMPLE.

1:29:23THERE IS ARCHITECTURAL

1:29:24STANDARDS.

1:29:25AND SO ADOPTING THIS TEXT

1:29:27AMENDMENT NOT ONLY PROVIDES

1:29:29CLEAR GUIDANCE TO DEVELOPERS,

1:29:30BUT IT ALSO PUTS IN GUARDRAILS

1:29:33FOR THE COUNCIL AND STAFF TO SAY

1:29:35WE'D LOVE TO HAVE YOU, HERE'S

1:29:36HOW WE NEED YOU TO DEVELOP.

1:29:39AND IT PROVIDES FLEXIBILITY, BUT

1:29:43IT PROVIDES GUARDRAILS.

1:29:44WITHOUT THIS INDUSTRIAL

1:29:45DEVELOPMENT COULD COME IN ON

1:29:46LAND ZONED IN FOR EXAMPLE.

1:29:49THEY WOULD ONLY HAVE A 10-FOOT

1:29:50SIDE YARD, AND STAFF WOULD NOT

1:29:53BE ABLE TO REQUIRE SOME OF THESE

1:29:56OTHER DESIGNING STANDARDS, SO I

1:29:59THINK THIS IS PUTS THE CITY BACK

1:30:01IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT RELATIVE TO

1:30:04YOUR JOBS CORRIDOR 2.0.

1:30:05>> AND WE CURRENTLY HAVE LAND

1:30:07THAT IS INSTITUTIONAL ZONING,

1:30:09CORRECT?

1:30:09>> CORRECT.

1:30:10>> OKAY.

1:30:10AND SO CURRENTLY WITHOUT THIS

1:30:11MOVING FORWARD, THOSE

1:30:12PROTECTIONS ARE NOT IN PLACE,

1:30:14AND WE COULD END UP WITH

1:30:16SOMETHING THAT'S DETRIMENTAL.

1:30:17>> CORRECT.

1:30:18>> OKAY.

1:30:18I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT'S

1:30:19FOR THE RECORD.

1:30:21THANK YOU.

1:30:21ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR FROM

1:30:23COUNCIL?

1:30:24ALL RIGHT.

1:30:24THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

1:30:28ALL RIGHTY.

1:30:32THIS ITEM IS A PUBLIC HEARING.

1:30:32I'LL GO AHEAD AND OPEN UP THE

1:30:36PUBLIC HEARING.

1:30:37IS THERE ANY MEMBER OF THE

1:30:38PUBLIC THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK

1:30:40ON 26-96.

1:30:40SEEING NO MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC

1:30:41MOVING FORWARD, I'LL CLOSE

1:30:42PUBLIC HEARING.

1:30:43COUNCIL S THERE A MOTION?

1:30:47>> I HAVE A COMMENT.

1:30:48>> OH, PLEASE, GO RIGHT AHEAD.

1:30:50>> SO I'M NOT PREPARED TO

1:30:52SUPPORT THIS ITEM TODAY OUT OF

1:30:55AN ABOUNDEN

1:30:58AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION AND

1:30:58CONCERN THAT TNGD MAKE IT EASIER

1:31:00FOR DATA CENTERS TO COME HERE

1:31:01AND THAT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT

1:31:03I'M JUST COMFORTABLE APPROVING

1:31:05UNDER MY WATCH.

1:31:06I'LL BE VOTING NO.

1:31:08>> COUNCILMAN BONNA, I

1:31:08APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENT.

1:31:09ANY OTHER COMMENTS?

1:31:10MR. CITY ATTORNEY, I JUST

1:31:11WANTEDDED TO CLARIFY FOR THE

1:31:12RECORD BECAUSE I ASKED THE

1:31:13QUESTION ALREADY AND I'M NOT

1:31:14TRYING TO ARGUE WITH COUNCILMAN

1:31:15BONNA BUT CURRENTLY SPEAKING, IF

1:31:17SUCH A PROPOSAL CAME FORWARD,

1:31:19AND THIS DID NOT MOVE FORWARD,

1:31:20AND AGAIN, YOU'RE MORE THAN

1:31:22WELCOME TO VOTE HOW YOU WOULD

1:31:23LIKE TO VOTE, WOULD NOT THE CITY

1:31:26POTENTIALLY BE IN A SENSE OPEN

1:31:31TO HAVING DEVELOPMENT THAT COULD

1:31:33BE VERY HARM IFFUL IF WE DON'T E

1:31:36PROPER GUARDRAILS UP?

1:31:38I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT

1:31:39THAT'S CLEAR.

1:31:40>> I'M NOT SURE I UNDERSTAND.

1:31:41>> WELL, MY CONCERN IS DOING

1:31:44NOTHING YOU KNOW AND I HEAR WHAT

1:31:46HE'S SAYINGMENT I DON'T

1:31:48NECESSARILY SEE THIS AS MAKING

1:31:49IT EASIERERMENT I EASIER.

1:31:51I THINK RIGHT NOW THEY CAN GO

1:31:52INTO A INDUSTRIAL ZONE

1:31:53REGARDLESS OF WHETHER WE DO

1:31:54SOMETHING AT THIS MOMENT OR NOT.

1:31:55I THINK THE CHALLENGE FOR ME IS

1:31:56IF THAT PROPOSAL WAS TO MOVE

1:31:58TORWARD BASED UPON THE BY RIGHT

1:32:00USE OF INDUSTRIAL AND WE DON'T

1:32:02HAVE ANY GUARDRAILS UP THEN WE

1:32:04COULD END UP IN A SITUATION

1:32:05WHERE NOT ONLY IS IT DIFFICULT

1:32:06TO STOP AT THAT POINT, THEY ALSO

1:32:08HAVE THE ABILITY TO MOVE FORWARD

1:32:11WITHOUT THESE PROTECTIONS.

1:32:12AND WITHOUT THESE REQUIREMENTS

1:32:13SUCH AS A NOISE STUDY AND SUCH.

1:32:17I'M SORRY THAT'S LOADED BUT I

1:32:18JUST, THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M

1:32:19SUPPORTIVE OF IT AND I WANT TO

1:32:20MAKE SURE I'M, I'M THINKING THIS

1:32:22THE RIGHT WAY.

1:32:25>>> I'M RELOOKINGLOOKINGLICATEAM

1:32:29RELUCTANT TO GIVE AN ANSWER TO

1:32:31COMPLICATED QUESTION LIKE THAT.

1:32:33THERE ARE GUARDRAILS BUT THERE

1:32:35ARE AS RIGHT.

1:32:35IT'S ALMOST A YES TO BOTH.

1:32:37AND THAT'S NOT A FULL LEGAL

1:32:39ANALYSIS BY ANY STRETCH.

1:32:39I WOULD NEED SOME TIME TO LOOK

1:32:41AT THIS ORDINANCE AND GIVE YOU A

1:32:43FORMAL OPINION.

1:32:44>> OKAY.

1:32:44SO QUESTION FOR STAFF.

1:32:45IS THERE ANY WAY -- BECAUSE I

1:32:47THINK THAT COUNCILMAN BONNA

1:32:49BRINGS UP A GOOD POINT, AND

1:32:50THERE ARE -- THERE ARE LIKE IF

1:32:52HE BRINGS OPPOINT I WANT TO MAKE

1:32:53SURE I'M UNDERSTANDING THE

1:32:54CLARIFICATION OF WHAT I'M VOTING

1:33:02ON.

1:33:02IS THERE A WAY TO TABLE IT?

1:33:04>> IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO TABLE IT

1:33:06TO FIRS READING.

1:33:06SO IN THE PAST COUNCIL HAS

1:33:07SUPPORTED THE FIRST READING AND

1:33:09RESERVED THE RIGHT TO ACT UNTIL

1:33:12THE SECOND BUT YOU COULD ALSO

1:33:14CONTINUE.

1:33:14I DEFER TO LEGAL AS FAR AS HOW

1:33:15TO PROCEED, BUT IF I MAY ANSWER

1:33:17YOUR QUESTION, THIS TEXT

1:33:20AMENDMENT YOU'LL FIND DOES

1:33:22PROVIDE ADDITIONAL DESIGN

1:33:24STANDARDS THAT ARE NOT CONTAINED

1:33:26IN OUR REGULAR CODE FOR BY RIGHT

1:33:29PERMITTED DEVELOPMENT.

1:33:30SO FOR EXAMPLE, REQUIRING A

1:33:34500-FOOT BUILDING LINE SETBACK

1:33:37ADJACENT TO RESIDENTIAL.

1:33:39CURRENT IS 10 FEET.

1:33:41SO STAFF IS VERY THOUGHTFUL WHEN

1:33:42WE LOOKED AT THIS AND WE

1:33:44CONTEMPLATED FUTURE JOB

1:33:46CORRIDORS SO IF THERE ARE

1:33:46QUESTIONS I'M HAPPY TO MEET WITH

1:33:48YOU IN THE INTERIM AND TALK IT

1:33:50THROUGH.

1:33:50>> YEAH, I WOULD, I MEAN,

1:33:52COUNCIL, I THINK THAT I

1:33:54PERSONALLY FEEL THAT IT'S

1:33:55PUTTING GUARDRAILS UP, BUT AT

1:33:57THE SAME TIME, IF THERE IS

1:33:59FURTHER DISCUSSION THAT NEEDS TO

1:34:00OCCUR I HAVE NO PROBLEM TABLING

1:34:02THIS ITEM, AND ALLOW QUESTIONS

1:34:03TO BE ANSWERED BECAUSE THE WAY I

1:34:05THINK YOU UNDERSTAND AND THE WAY

1:34:06I UNDERSTAND IT ARE TWO

1:34:07DIFFERENT THINGS.

1:34:08>> WELL THE GUARDRAILS ARE PUT

1:34:09IN PLACE, I UNDERSTAND THAT.

1:34:10LET'S GO AHEAD AND MOVE IT

1:34:13FORWARD AND THEN WE HAVE A

1:34:15DISCUSSION.

1:34:16>> ON THE SECOND READING?

1:34:20>> MORE IN-DEPTH DISCUSSION WITH

1:34:21THE STAFF AND MEET WRG CITY

1:34:22ATTORNEY AND CITY STAFF.

1:34:23>> SO WE'RE NOT INSTALLING THIS.

1:34:24>> ALL RIGHT, NO PROBLEM.

1:34:25I DON'T HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THIS

1:34:30EITHER.

1:34:32>> MR. CITY MANAGER IF YOU WOULD

1:34:32MAKE SURE MARY AND STAFF MEETS

1:34:34WITH ALL COUNCILMEMBERS IN

1:34:37REGARDS TO THIS PARTICULAR ITEM

1:34:38BY SECOND READING, AND THEN JUST

1:34:41FOR CLARIFICATION, ARE WE ABLE

1:34:42TO VOTE NO ON THE SECOND READING

1:34:44IF WE SO CHOOSE TO JUST TO MAKE

1:34:46SURE?

1:34:46>> YES.

1:34:47>> AND.

1:34:48>> IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE

1:34:50THIS ONTO FOR PUBLIC HEARING FOR

1:34:52THE READING AS WELL YOU CAN DO

1:34:54THAT AS WELL BUT YES YOU HAVE

1:34:55THE COMPLETE RIGHT TO VOTE AS

1:34:57YOU SEE FIT ON THE --

1:34:58>> PERFECT.

1:34:59COUNCIL BONNA WOULD YOU LIKE TO

1:35:00KEEP YOUR VOTE OR --

1:35:03>> I'LL BE VOTING NO BUT IT'LL

1:35:06PASS 3-1 SO I'M NOT PREPARED TO

1:35:08SUPPORT IT TODAY.

1:35:12>> OKAY.

1:35:12SO WITH THAT, I'LL GO AHEAD AND

1:35:13ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

1:35:14>> MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE

1:35:1826-96.

1:55:18LOT OF THESE CDDs AND I SEE

1:55:21WHAT HAPPENS TO LOT OF THE

1:55:22RESIDENTS IN THE TRADITION AREA,

1:55:24AND IT'S A KIND OF TAX STACKING

1:55:26AND PEOPLE HAVE TO PAY THESE

1:55:27EXORBITANT FEES FOR A LONG TIME.

1:55:30SO WHEN WE HAVE THE CDDs WE%

1:55:33HAVE BUT I'M NOT COMFORTABLE

1:55:35CREATIC ANY NEW ONES SO I WILL

1:55:36BE VOTING NO.

1:55:37>> THANK YOU.

1:55:38I AM GOING TO GO BACK BECAUSE I

1:55:39APPRECIATE YOUR STATEMENT BUT

1:55:40THEN IT PUTS US IN A QUANDARY

1:55:42BECAUSE MAKES US LOOK LIKE WE'RE

1:55:43SUPPORTING THAT.

1:55:44SO MR. CITY ATTORNEY, COULD YOU

1:55:46CLARIFY HOW CDDs OPERATE AND

1:55:48HOW THEY'RE STATUTORILY,

1:55:52STATUTORILY REQUIRED AS FAR AS

1:55:53THE CITY AND ITS, HOW IT'S

1:55:55FORMED AND WHAT -- WHAT ACTUAL

1:55:57DECISION MAKING DO WE HAVE WHEN

1:55:58IT COMES TO THIS?

1:56:00>> STOWSO CDDS ARE A CREATURE OF

1:56:05STATUTE.

1:56:06MR. WARD YOU WORKED ON THIS

1:56:08DIRECTLY.

1:56:08>> I MEAN, IF WE HAVE TO VOTE

1:56:10FOR IT, THEN, BUT YOU KNOW, IT

1:56:13LOOKS LIKE THE OPTION BEFORE ME,

1:56:26SO.

1:56:26>> THERE ARE CRITERIA IN THE

1:56:27STATUTE THAT LAY OUT THE MINIMUM

1:56:31CRITERIA THAT MUST BE MET FOR A

1:56:34CDD TO BE VALIDLY CREATED BY A

1:56:37UNIT OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUCH AS

1:56:38THE CITY, BUT THERE IS NOT A

1:56:40REQUIREMENT IN THE STATUTE THAT

1:56:41ENTITLES AN ENTITY TO HAVE A CDD

1:56:46CREATED.

1:56:47THE ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF THEM IS

1:56:48THAT YOU KNOW, CURRENT RESIDENTS

1:56:50MAY SAY THAT THEY SHOULDN'T BEAR

1:56:53THE COST OF THE ADDITIONAL

1:56:54IMPROVEMENTS AND SO THAT'S ONE

1:56:57OF THE REASONS WHY THESE CDDs

1:56:59ARE ARGUED TO BE BENEFICIAL.

1:57:02>> AND THEN STATEWIDE

1:57:03STATUTORILY IF THEY MEET THE

1:57:06CRITERIA, WE'RE NOT FORCED TO

1:57:07APPROVE BUT IN A SENSE IF WE DO

1:57:08NOT APPROVE WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO

1:57:10SHOW JUST CAUSE WHY THEY DIDN'T

1:57:12MEET THE CRITERIA.

1:57:14>> WELL, THE CRITERIA STATE THAT

1:57:16THE STATUTE STATES THAT A CITY

1:57:18MAY CREATE A CDD IF IT MEETS THE

1:57:22EYETERIA, BUT DOES NOT REQUIRE

1:57:23THAT A CITY CREATE A CDD FOR THE

1:57:26CRITERIA ARE MET.

1:57:29>>> HUH.

1:57:30THAT'S INTERESTING.

1:57:32BECAUSE I KIND OF AGREE WITH

1:57:34COUNCILMAN BONNA.

1:57:36I'VE NOT LIKE CDDs FOR A-LONG

1:57:39TIME.

1:57:39IN FACT I FEEL LIKE THERE THEY N

1:57:41ISSUE THAT THE STATE -- DON'T

1:57:45WORRY.

1:57:45[LAUGHTER]%

1:57:45IF I HAVE -- IF I'M IN AGREEANCE

1:57:47WITH COUNCILMAN BONNA I WILL

1:57:48REQUEST A TABLE BECAUSE NOT THE

1:57:49FULL MEMBERSHIP OF THE COUNCIL

1:57:51IS HERE.

1:57:52>> AND THIS IS THE FIRST HEARING

1:57:53OF THE ORDINANCE IT WOULD NOT

1:57:56PASS, IT WOULD NOT BECOME

1:57:57EFFECTIVE UNTIL THE SECOND

1:57:58READING, WHICH WOULD ALSO BE A

1:58:02COUNCIL MEETING.

1:58:13THE FOUR WEEKS OF NEWSPAPER

1:58:16PUBLICATION REQUIRED PRIOR TO A

1:58:17PUBLIC HEARING FOR A CDD

1:58:18FORMATION HEARING TO TAKE PLACE,

1:58:23SO THIS PUBLIC HEARING IS TO

1:58:24SATISFY THE REQUIREMENTS OF THAT

1:58:26STATUTE,

1:58:28AND THEN OUR NEXT PUBLIC HEARING

1:58:31WOULD BE TO SATISFY THE

1:58:33REQUIREMENT FOR 10 DAYS NOTICE

1:58:35PRIOR TO THE FINAL NOTICE PER

1:58:40CHAPTER 66 AS IT RELATES TO

1:58:43MUNICIPALITIES PASSING

1:58:48ORDINANCES.

1:58:49>> I DON'T HAVE HOW I'D LIKE

1:58:51FEEL ABOUT THAT.

1:58:53IT CREATES AS MUCH POWER AS

1:58:55SOMETIMES AS A LOCAL GOVERNMENT.

1:58:58THE BOARD IS MADE UP WITH THE

1:59:01DEVELOP BEFORE ANY MEMBERS OF

1:59:02THE PUBLIC ACTUALLY OWN

1:59:04OWNERSHIP.

1:59:05I HOPE THAT THE STATE CREATES

1:59:08REGULATIONS THAT LIKE MAKES CDDs

1:59:12A LITTLE BIT MORE DIFFICULT IN

1:59:13THE SENSE OF PROTECTIONS FOR THE

1:59:15RESIDENTS.

1:59:17SO SINCE I WASN'T PAURPT OF THE

1:59:20CREATION OF THE PREVIOUS ONCE.

1:59:22THE CONVERSATIONS IN PREVIOUS

1:59:24COUNSEL BEFORE YOU MR. BARRIOS I

1:59:27HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH FORMER

1:59:29CITY ATTORNEYS THAT PRESENTED IT

1:59:30TO ME I DIDN'T HAVE AN OPTION.

1:59:33THERE WAS NO OPTION IN FRONT OF

1:59:36ME.

1:59:37>> THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT MY

1:59:39THOUGHT WAS.

1:59:40WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE.

1:59:42NOW YOU PRESENTS THINGS IN A

1:59:44DIFFERENT LIGHT TO ME.

1:59:46I'M IN FAVOR OF A CDD THAT'S WHY

1:59:50I DON'T LIVE IN TRADITION

1:59:52>> WOULD THE APPLICANT.

1:59:53>> I'D LIKE TO -- CAN I MAKE A

1:59:57COMMENT, PLEASE.

1:59:57>> ABSOLUTELY.

1:59:59>> SO THIS IS FIRST READING.

2:00:02IT'S COMING BACK FOR A SECOND

2:00:04READING.

2:00:07WHICH WILL ALSO BE A PUBLIC

2:00:08HEARING WHICH WILL ALLOW US OR

2:00:10CERTAIN PEOPLE.

2:00:19I WAS ALWAYS TOLD THAT A FIRST

2:00:22READING TO GET TO THE SECOND

2:00:24READING AND THERE'S YOUR CHANCE

2:00:27TO VOTE FOR IT OR DENY IT.

2:00:30I DON'T THINK FAIR FOR AN

2:00:32APPLICANT TO HAVE TO EXTEND AND

2:00:34TO TABLE IF WE'RE HAVING A

2:00:37SECOND READING IN TWO WEEKS.

2:00:40>> SO ROCHBLT WHY I THINK IT'S

2:00:42APPROPRIATE TO TABLE NUMBER ONE

2:00:44FOR ME I WOULD LIKE TO

2:00:46UNDERSTAND THE LEGALITY OF IT A

2:00:48LITTLE BIT BETTER.

2:00:49IN ADDITION TO THAT IF THERE'S

2:00:51ANY MAJOR CHANGES THAT NEED TO

2:00:55BE MADE IN THE SECOND READING.

2:00:58I THINK TO BE CLEAN.

2:00:59I WOULD PREFER TO TABLE.

2:01:03IF THERE'S ANY DISCUSSION LIKE

2:01:06HOW DO YOU FEEL COUNCIL MEMBER

2:01:09BONNA.

2:01:10>> I WILL VOTE NO FOR TODAY.

2:01:14BUT I'M JUST -- YOU KNOW WE HAD

2:01:16A BIT OF SEA CHANGE KIND OF

2:01:20MIDDLE FROM PASSING EVERYTHING

2:01:23ON THE FIRST READING AND VOTE

2:01:25HOW YOU WANT ON THE FIRST

2:01:30REEI

2:01:30REEINGED.

2:01:31BUT THAT'S THE DISCRETION OF THE

2:01:34BOARD

2:01:34>> PERFECT.

2:01:35>> COUNCIL MEMBER PICKETT.

2:01:37>> BASED ON MY PREVIOUS COMMENT

2:01:39I'M READY TO MOVE IT FORWARD AND

2:01:42WE CAN TABLE IT AT THE SECOND

2:01:44READING IF WE NEED BE.

2:01:46TO GIVE US FURTHER DISCUSSION.

2:01:49BUT TO BE HONEST WITH YOU SIR

2:01:51I'M NOT COMFORTABLE PERIOD WITH

2:01:54IT.

2:01:54SO

2:01:54>> WE'RE AT A CROSSROADS

2:02:16YOUR CONCERNS IN THE INTERIM.

2:02:22WE'D LOVE TO NOT TO RE-ADVERTISE

2:02:26IN ORDER TO GET BACK TO YOU.

2:02:43SECOND

2:02:44>> COUNCIL MEMBER BONNA.

2:02:52DATE CERTAIN.

2:02:52THAT'S YOUR PURVIEW.

2:02:54WE HAVE A FIRST AND SECOND.

2:02:56>> SO I'M GOING TO SUPPORT IT AT

2:03:00THIS JUNCTURE BECAUSE I

2:03:05INCURS TO THAT.

2:03:06I WANT TO MAKE IT VERY CLEAR

2:09:43SCULP

2:09:44SCULPTURES FOR THE FIRST TWO

2:09:45BUILDINGS THAT ARE CURRENTLY.

2:09:49WILL BE THE PIECE FACING VILLAGE

2:09:52PARKWAY.

2:09:53AND 12090 CHB SOUTHWEST TOM

2:10:01MACKEY.

2:10:01THE WING WALLS ARE 66 FEET

2:10:04ACROSS, AND 22 FEET HIGH.

2:10:09THESE EXCULPATORY SCHURS WILL BE

2:10:11INVESTIGATED UP CLOSE IN A VERY

2:10:13INTERESTING WAY AND ALSO BE

2:10:15EXPERIENCE FROM A FAR DISTANCE

2:10:17AS WELL.

2:10:19FR BUILDING 3 WHICH WILL BE

2:10:2412120 THIS IS OUR PROPOSED

2:10:26CULTURE.

2:10:27THIS WOULD BE THE LAST PIECE

2:10:29INSTALLED.

2:10:30HERE WE HAVE SOME SCALE AND

2:10:32PLACEMENT IN CASE THERE ARE ANY

2:10:34QUESTIONS AND YOU KIND OF

2:10:35UNDERSTAND HOW THE SCULPTURE

2:10:37WILL INTEGRATE ON TO THE WALL.

2:10:41AND WE WILL BE CONSTRUCTING

2:10:42THAEINGS OUT OF HIGH GRADE ALUM

2:10:48NGUYEN THAT IS POWDER AND UV

2:10:52RESISTANCE.

2:10:54I WOULD WELCOME ANY QUESTIONS.

2:10:57>> THANK YOU.

2:10:58>> I HAVE ONE IMPORTANT DESIGN

2:11:01CONSIDERATION.

2:11:02THAT WASN'T TOUCHED ON.

2:11:04THE SCULPTURES WILL BE AFFIXED

2:11:06TO THE WALLS AND PROJECT SIX

2:11:10INCHES OFF OF THE WALL TO GIVE

2:11:13THEM A 3D, AND I THINK THAT'S

2:11:17VERY IMPRTANT FOR THE NEGLEATIV

2:11:20AND POSITIVE SPACE

2:11:23DIFFERENTIATION.

2:11:24>> SO JUST TO CLARIFY.

2:11:27DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS

2:11:29FROM COUNCIL RIGHT NOW.

2:11:31>> SO THE WHITEWALL WITH THE

2:11:33BLUE IS GOING TO HAVE SOMETHING

2:11:35IN UNT AND AFFIXED TO IT.

2:11:38>> OKAY.

2:11:39SO IF WE LOOK AT ONE 2790.

2:11:46THAT WILL BE WITH THE WRACKET

2:11:50STAMM SCREWING INTO THE WALL

2:11:52THAT WILL HAVE LITTLE HOLDERS

2:11:54THAT SCREW ON TO.

2:11:57AND WE WILL BE ILLUMINATING THE

2:12:00SCULPTURES FROM NIGHT FROM

2:12:02DIRECTLY BEHIND OR UNDERNEATH AT

2:12:05THE BOTTOM.

2:12:06WE WANT THE SCULPTURES TO STAND

2:12:09OUT AT NIGHT.

2:12:14I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE SEEN

2:12:14THEM OR NOT.

2:12:15IF YOU GO BY NIGHT THEY'RE

2:12:18INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL, AND 100

2:12:21PERCENT POWERED BY THE FLORIDA

2:12:23SUN.

2:12:24SO WE WERE PLAYING AROUND WITH

2:12:26THAT IDEA.

2:12:27REALLY UNTIL WE GET THE

2:12:28SCULPTURE ON THE WALL IT'S

2:12:31DIFFICULT TO LIGHT IT.

2:12:32>> I KNOW THERE'S TREES IN

2:12:35FRONT.

2:12:35IS THERE IRRIGATION

2:12:37>> OH, YES.

2:12:39WE'VE GOT 25 INCREDIBLE ACRES OF

2:12:42IRRIGATION

2:12:43>> BECAUSE THE WALL IS WHITE.

2:12:45TELL ME HOW WE'RE GOING TO

2:12:47MAINTAIN IT IF YOU PRESSURE WASH

2:12:54IT WITHOUT PABT COMING OUT.

2:12:57>> WHICH IS A FIVE STEP WAY TO

2:13:00PAINT INDUSTRIAL BILLING.

2:13:02SO EVERYTHING IS INDUSTRIAL

2:13:04GRADE.

2:13:26CREW ON SITE AND I'M HAPPY TO
