27:30COMMUNITY MEETINGS, TOO.

27:34HERE IS A GENERAL TIMELINE OF

27:36WHERE WE'VE BEEN THROUGHOUT THIS

27:37PROCESS.

27:40TONIGHT, WE'RE REALLY GOING TO

27:41BE FOCUSED ON 2026 BECAUSE

27:44THAT'S WHERE WE ARE IN THIS

27:47UPDATE, BUT WANT TO NOTE THERE

27:49WAS SIGNIFICANT COORDINATION AND

27:51DISCUSSION AND ENGAGEMENT WITH

27:52THE PUBLIC THROUGHOUT 2022

27:55THROUGH 2025 AS WELL.

27:57I'LL ALSO NOTE THAT BOTH THE

27:59HOUSING AND COASTAL HAVE BEEN

28:01TRAVELING ALONG THOSE SAME TIME

28:02FRAME IN 2026 AS WELL.

28:10WE TRANSMITTED -- EXCUSE ME, WE

28:11TRANSMITTED THE AMENDMENT FOR

28:14STATE REVIEW.

28:15THE COMMENTS ARE ALL AVAILABLE

28:18IN ATTACHMENT 6.

28:19I'M GOING TO BE FOCUSED ON THE

28:20FLORIDA COMMERCE COMMENTS THIS

28:23EVENING.

28:26THIS IS CERTAINLY FAMILIAR TO

28:27THOSE OF YOU AT THE DAIS.

28:28BUT I WANTED TO SHARE FOR FOLKS

28:30WHO MIGHT BE IN THE AUDIENCE AND

28:32HERE FOR THE FIRST TIME, SENATE

28:34BILL 180 IS A PIECE OF

28:36LEGISLATION THAT WAS PASSED IN

28:392025.

28:39AND IT INDICATES THAT A LOCAL

28:41GOVERNMENT CAN'T PROPOSE

28:41ANYTHING CONSIDERED MORE

28:43RESTRICTIVE OR BURDENSOME,

28:44INCLUDING WITHIN THE

28:46COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

28:47IF AN AMENDMENT, ANY PART OF AN

28:49AMENDMENT IS FOUND TO POSSESS

28:53RESTRICTIVE OR BURDENSOME

28:54LANGUAGE, IT COULD BE CONSIDERED

28:55NULL AND VOID.

28:56PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF ALONG

28:57WITH OUR PARTNERS AT THE CITY

28:58HAVE BEEN ENGAGED IN SEVERAL

28:59MONTHS OF DISCUSSION WITH THE

29:00DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, AND WE

29:02HAVE IDENTIFIED A PATH FORWARD.

29:05WE DO BELIEVE IT IS CRITICAL TO

29:07ADDRESS THE DOC COMMENTS AT

29:09ADOPTION AND WE'LL BE GOING INTO

29:10THAT AS WELL.

29:15AND THEN HERE WE ARE IN TERMS OF

29:18OUR LATEST WORK.

29:20AGAIN, THROUGH THAT COORDINATION

29:21WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE,

29:23WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE

29:26DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE TO

29:27INDICATE THAT TWO OF THE

29:29ORIGINAL POLICIES THAT THEY HAD

29:30IDENTIFIED AS RESTRICTIVE OR

29:32BURDENSOME ARE NO LONGER SO.

29:34THEY REVERSED THAT DECISION.

29:36ADDITIONALLY, WE ALSO GOT

29:37CLARIFICATION THAT THE 12

29:39POLICIES IDENTIFIED AS

29:40POTENTIALLY RESTRICTIVE WERE, IN

29:43FACT, TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

29:45COMMENTS.

29:46THIS SAME TIMELINE IS ALSO WHAT

29:50COASTAL MANAGEMENT HAS BEEN

29:52ADDRESSING.

29:52THE APRIL 1st LETTER FROM

29:54FLORIDA COMMERCE, WE RECEIVED A

29:57STATUTORY EXTENSION FOR ADOPTION

29:57OF THE PLAN.

29:58THE COORDINATION, AND THEN WE

30:00HAD OUR INFORMATIONAL OUTREACH

30:02JUST IN THE PAST COUPLE OF

30:03MONTHS.

30:03AND WITH THAT, I'M GOING TO TURN

30:05IT OVER TO DANNY COLLINS TO GO

30:07INTO MORE DETAIL.

30:07THANK YOU.

30:10>>DANNY COLLINS: DANNY COLLINS

30:11WITH YOUR PLANNING COMMISSION

30:14STAFF.

30:14I'LL CONTINUE ON WITH SOME OF

30:16THE COMMENTS AND OUR

30:18RECOMMENDATIONS FOR COMMENTS

30:19THAT WE RECEIVED FROM THE STATE.

30:22TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE DOC

30:24DETERMINATIONS, STAFF IS

30:25PROPOSING THE FOLLOWING CHANGES

30:27WE ARE PROPOSING TO RETAIN TWO

30:29POLICIES AS PROPOSED.

30:31WE ARE RECOMMENDING REVERTING

30:34TWO POLICIES BACK TO THEIR

30:36PREVIOUSLY ADOPTED LANGUAGE.

30:39WE ARE RECOMMENDING RETAINING

30:42TEN POLICIES WITH VERY MINOR

30:44REVISIONS THAT WE THINK WILL

30:46HELP ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE

30:47COMMENTS THAT WE RECEIVED FROM

30:49THE STATE.

30:49AND WE'RE PROPOSING THE DELETION

30:52OF TWO POLICIES THAT WERE KIND

31:01OF DEALT WITH IN OTHER POLICIES

31:04IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

31:06WE THOUGHT THOSE WERE KIND OF

31:09REDUNDANT, SO WE'RE PROPOSING TO

31:10DELETE THOSE.

31:15NEXT, WE'LL TALK ABOUT SOME OF

31:17THE GENERAL CLEANUP REVISIONS IN

31:19YOUR DRAFT.

31:21THESE ARE THE HIGHLIGHTED BLUE

31:22IN YOUR DRAFT, LIGHT BLUE.

31:24THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 35

31:26PROPOSED GENERAL CLEANUP

31:27REVISIONS.

31:27MANY ADDRESS FORMATTING

31:31INCONSISTENCIES, SUCH AS

31:32NUMBERING, GRAMMATICAL ERRORS

31:34AND POLICY REFERENCES.

31:35THEY ARE INTENDED TO PROVIDE

31:37GREATER CLARITY.

31:38THESE CHANGES ARE SHOWN IN LIGHT

31:39BLUE IN YOUR DRAFT.

31:42OUR THIRD TYPE OF CHANGE ARE

31:45RELATED TO COUNCIL'S MOTIONS

31:47THAT WERE MADE BACK IN FEBRUARY.

31:50I PUT THE THREE MOTIONS SHOWN

31:53HERE ON THE PROJECTOR.

31:56WE MADE -- WE ADDRESSED ALL OF

31:58COUNCIL'S MOTIONS AND JUST A

32:00REMINDER, THOSE MOTIONS WERE,

32:02THE FIRST ONE WAS ADDING

32:04ADDITIONAL CORRIDORS TO THE

32:05TRANSIT READY CORRIDORS MAP.

32:07AND THEN THE OTHER TWO RELATED

32:09TO REMOVING THE WORD HIGH-RISE

32:12IN THE R-50 CATEGORY

32:15DESCRIPTION, AND THEN ALSO

32:17ADDING LANGUAGE BACK IN THE

32:19CATEGORY DESCRIPTIONS RELATED TO

32:21THE TYPICAL STORIES THAT IS

32:23ADOPTED IN THE PLAN TODAY.

32:32YOU'LL ALSO NOTICE THAT WE

32:35REVISED THE ORIGINAL PLACE TYPES

32:37MAP THAT WAS TRANSMITTED BACK IN

32:39FEBRUARY.

32:40OUR ORIGINAL APPROACH WAS TO

32:41IDENTIFY PARCELS ELIGIBLE TO THE

32:43TRANSIT READY CORRIDOR BONUS AT

32:44A SPECIFIC POINT IN TIME.

32:46IT WAS INTENDED TO PROVIDE

32:47GREATER TRANSPARENCY.

32:48SINCE THE TRANSMITTAL HEARING,

32:50WE FOUND THAT THIS APPROACH CAN

32:52QUICKLY MAKE THE MAP OUTDATED

32:54FOR A COUPLE OF REASONS.

32:55THE FIRST REASON IS COMBINING

32:58WHEN AN APPLICANT COMBINES OR

33:01SUBDIVIDES A PARCEL, IT COULD

33:02CHANGE THE PERCENTAGE OF THE

33:03PARCEL WITHIN THE TRC BONUS

33:05AREA, WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY

33:07CHANGE ITS ELIGIBILITY.

33:09THE SECOND REASON IS WE FOUND

33:11THAT PLAN AMENDMENTS MAY REQUIRE

33:13THE MAP TO BE UPDATED REGULARLY,

33:14RESULTING IN ADDITIONAL TEXT

33:15AMENDMENTS TO THE PLAN.

33:17AGAIN, THAT CAN QUICKLY BECOME

33:20OUTDATED.

33:27HERE IS A SLIDE OF OUR UPDATED

33:29APPROACH.

33:29SO THE NEW MAP NOW IDENTIFIES

33:32APPLICABLE CORRIDORS RATHER THAN

33:34INDIVIDUAL ELIGIBLE PARCELS.

33:36THE POLICY LANGUAGE DETERMINES

33:38PARCEL ELIGIBILITY BASED ON

33:40APPLICABLE CRITERIA.

33:40AND THAT IS IN LAND USE POLICY

33:432.6.4 IN YOUR DRAFT.

33:45IF THE MAP AND POLICY LANGUAGE

33:47CONFLICT, THE POLICY TEXT TAKES

33:50PRECEDENCE.

33:51THE INTERACTIVE MAP WILL REMAIN

33:53AVAILABLE ON THE PROJECT WEB

33:55PAGE AND ON OUR WEBSITE FOR

33:56INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES, BUT IS

33:58NOT PROPOSED FOR ADOPTION.

33:59I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT NO

34:02CHANGES ARE PROPOSED AT THE TRC

34:04ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA SINCE THE

34:06FEBRUARY TRANSMITTAL HEARING.

34:11HERE IS THAT NEW PROPOSED PLACE

34:18TYPES MAP.

34:25YOU'LL ALSO NOTICE THAT PLANNING

34:27DISTRICTS ARE REMOVED FROM THE

34:28PLACE TYPES MAP AND ARE NOW ON

34:31THEIR OWN PLANNING DISTRICT MAP

34:32FOR ADOPTION.

34:33PLANNING DISTRICTS ARE REQUIRED

34:34TO BE RETAINED BECAUSE OF SENATE

34:36BILL 180.

34:37THEY WERE ADDED TO THE PLACE

34:38TYPES MAP IN FEBRUARY TO ENSURE

34:40THEY WERE REFLECTED ON AN

34:42ADOPTED MAP.

34:42SINCE THEN, STAFF FOUND THE

34:45PLACE TYPES MAP TO BE VISUALLY

34:46COMPLEX WITH OVERLAPPING LAYERS

34:48THAT REDUCED THE READABILITY.

34:50AS SUCH, STAFF HAS PROPOSED

34:53PLANNING DISTRICT MAP TO IMPROVE

34:55CLARITY AND EASE OF USE.

34:56HERE IS THE MAP SHOWN HERE.

34:58I DO WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT NONE

34:59OF THE BOUNDARIES HAVE CHANGED

35:01IT AND REFLECT THE CURRENT

35:02BOUNDARIES OF WHAT'S IN THE PLAN

35:04TODAY.

35:08I DO WANT TO REMIND YOU THAT

35:11PLANNING COMMISSION BOARD FOUND

35:13THE AMENDMENT CONSISTENT WITH

35:14THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AND WE

35:15RECOMMEND THAT THE TA/CPA 24-04

35:19BE ADOPTED BY TAMPA CITY

35:20COUNCIL.

35:21WHILE WE ARE RECOMMENDING THE

35:22VERSION IN FRONT OF YOU, WE DID

35:24HEAR FROM SEVERAL OF YOU IN OUR

35:27BRIEFINGS AND FROM COUNCILWOMAN

35:28HURTAK IN HER MEMO THAT THERE IS

35:31INTEREST IN REVERTING BACK TO

35:33THE DENSITY, TO HOW THE DENSITY

35:34IS HANDLED TODAY IN THE

35:35COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

35:37OUR DRAFT INCLUDED STREAMLINING

35:39THE DENSITY IN CERTAIN LAND USE

35:40CATEGORIES TO REMOVE THE

35:42INTERNAL CATEGORY BONUS AS A WAY

35:43TO ADDRESS SEVERAL OF THE CITY'S

35:44GOALS TO PROVIDE MORE CERTAINTY

35:46AND CLARITY IN THE PLAN, TO

35:48STREAMLINE THE PROCESS, AND TO

35:50CREATE ADDITIONAL HOUSING AS IS

35:53PARAMOUNT TO ADDRESSING THE

35:54HOUSING CRISIS.

35:55HOWEVER, WE DID PREPARE

35:56ALTERNATIVE LANGUAGE RESPONSIVE

35:57TO THE POTENTIAL DESIRE OF

35:58COUNCIL TO REVERT BACK TO THE

36:00DENSITY BACK TO THE WAY IT IS

36:02HANDLED TODAY IN THE PLAN.

36:03I'M HAPPY TO GO THROUGH AN

36:05ALTERNATIVE APPROACH WITH YOU.

36:06WE DO HAVE SOME HANDOUTS.

36:09I WILL PUT THIS UP ON THE SCREEN

36:16FOR YOU.

36:17ESSENTIALLY, WE WOULD HAVE A NEW

36:19COLUMN IN OUR TABLE THAT WOULD

36:22BE CONSIDERED A TIER ONE BONUS.

36:24ESSENTIALLY THE FLU CATEGORY

36:27MAXIMUM COLUMN AS WELL AS THE

36:28TIER ONE BONUS IS REFLECTIVE OF

36:29WHAT IS IN THE PLAN TODAY.

36:32THESE ADDITIONAL BONUSES WOULD

36:34THEN BE -- IT'S WHAT IS

36:36REFLECTED IN YOUR PROPOSED

36:40DRAFT.

36:43WITH THESE CHANGES, WE WOULD

36:45ALSO NEED TO MAKE CHANGES TO

36:47LAND USE TABLE 1, WHICH IS IN

36:53YOUR PACKET TO ADDRESS SOME OF

36:54THESE NEW CHANGES IN THE TABLE.

36:56I'M HAPPY TO GO INTO MORE DETAIL

36:59ON THE TABLE IF YOU WOULD LIKE.

37:01THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

37:02>>LYNN HURTAK: OKAY.

37:02DOES ANYONE HAVE QUESTIONS?

37:04YES, COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO.

37:05>>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU

37:06VERY MUCH.

37:06YOU BROUGHT UP THAT COUNCIL

37:08MEMBER HURTAK DID PUT OUT A

37:11MEMO.

37:12YOU MENTIONED THE HOUSING

37:15CRISIS.

37:16IT'S AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING

37:17CRISIS BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT

37:19THE INVENTORY THAT'S ON THE

37:21BOOKS, I SEE INTEREST RATES ARE

37:23UP.

37:23THE HOUSING MARKET BUYING AND

37:25SELLING HAVE SLOWED DOWN.

37:27I DIDN'T SEE DURING COVID

37:30APARTMENTS OFFERING ANY KINDS OF

37:33SPECIALS.

37:33THE RENTS WERE GOING UP AND SO

37:35MANY PEOPLE WERE MOVING HERE.

37:37THAT WAS THAT TIME.

37:37I LOOKED AT IT AS WHAT HAPPENED

37:41IN THAT TIME?

37:43IT'S VERY EASY TO GAIN FIVE

37:45POUNDS.

37:46CAN I GAIN FIVE POUNDS IN A

37:47WEEK, AND IT TAKES ME A MONTH TO

37:49LOSE THEM.

37:52I CAN DO IT QUICKER ON A KETO

37:54DIET, BUT WHAT I'M SAYING, WHAT

37:56WE SAW WITH COVID WAS THE DEMAND

37:59WAS SO GREAT AND WE SAW PRICES

38:01GO UP SO HIGH, AND NOW WE'RE

38:04HOPEFULLY SLOWLY COMING DOWN TO

38:05A MORE REALISTIC NUMBER.

38:08IN REGARDS TO THE DENSITY, THE

38:12BONUS DENSITY AND I KNOW YOU PUT

38:14OUT THE MEMO SO YOU'LL TALK

38:16ABOUT IT, WE HAVE PLENTY OF

38:17HOUSING AND WE HAVE PLENTY OF

38:19OPPORTUNITIES TO BUILD THAT

38:20HOUSING.

38:20AS I MENTIONED TO A COUPLE OF

38:22FOLKS, AND I KNOW WE HAD A

38:23BRIEFING AND EVERYTHING, THE

38:25HURRICANES FROM TWO YEARS AGO

38:26TAUGHT ME A LOT.

38:28AND IT TAUGHT ME A LOT ABOUT

38:30EVACUATING.

38:30IT TAUGHT ME ABOUT AREAS THAT

38:33HADN'T FLOODED IN A CENTURY.

38:35IT TAUGHT ME, YOU KNOW, YOU

38:37DON'T WANT TO KEEP BUILDING AND

38:40OVERBUILDING.

38:41BASICALLY, YOU CAN'T FIGHT

38:44MOTHER NATURE.

38:44WE NEED TO HAVE A BALANCE.

38:45WE NEED TO BE SMART.

38:46AT THE SAME TIME WITH WHAT'S

38:48ALREADY EXISTING, WE ACCOMMODATE

38:49GROWTH.

38:50WE CAN STILL BUILD, BUT DO WE

38:52HAVE TO BUILD SO MUCH AND

38:53BASICALLY OVERBURDEN THE SYSTEM?

38:55THAT'S IT.

38:55THANK YOU.

38:59>>LYNN HURTAK: COUNCILMAN

39:00MIRANDA.

39:00>>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I AGREE WITH

39:01JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING COUNCILMAN

39:03MANISCALCO SAID.

39:05HOWEVER, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE

39:06WAY WE'RE CONSTRUCTING HOUSES,

39:09YOU CAN SURE SAVE A LOT OF MONEY

39:11ON INSURANCE AND DAMAGE TO THE

39:13HOUSES, BUT WE DON'T DO THAT.

39:14WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE ISLANDS

39:15THAT REALLY TAKE THE HURRICANES,

39:17A LOT MORE BLUNTLY THAN WE DO,

39:22PUERTO RICO, CUBA, LITTLE

39:23ISLANDS DON'T HAVE MUCH ON THE

39:27OUTSIDE SKIRTS, DOWNTOWN,

39:28CENTRAL BUSINESS AREAS, BUT THEY

39:30DON'T HAVE THE PROBLEM WE HAVE.

39:32OUR ROOFS BLOW OFF LIKE ME

39:37TAKING A POP CYCLICAL AND

39:41THROWING THE STICK AWAY.

39:44THE EAVES COLLAPSE AND FLOODING

39:45OF THE HOUSE FROM THE TOP AND

39:46GETTING FROM BOTTOM.

39:48FLOWS OF WATER FROM ALL SIDES.

39:50WHAT DO THEY DO DIFFERENT?

39:53START DOWN, WHEN THEY BUILD THE

39:56FRAME HOUSE, WOOD HOUSE, OF THE

39:59DWELLING TO START.

40:00THEY PUT DOWN SIX TO EIGHT FEET

40:03OF CONCRETE WITH REBAR WIRE.

40:07REBAR WIRE CROSSES THE MAIN

40:09FRAME OR THE WEIGHT OF THE

40:10HOUSE.

40:10THEY DON'T HAVE WIVES LIKE WE

40:12HAVE THAT ARE AT ANGLES.

40:16THEY ARE ALSO TIED TO THE

40:19FOUNDATION WITH REBAR WIRE ABOUT

40:21EIGHT TO NINE INCHES OF CONCRETE

40:22AND NOTHING THAT A HURRICANE CAN

40:24GRAB.

40:28THAT'S WHY THEY DO NOT CAVE IN.

40:29ON THE INSIDE, NO DRYWALL.

40:32IT'S ALL CONCRETE.

40:35IF SOME WATER COMES IN, WAIT

40:36UNTIL IT DRIES AND PAINT IT.

40:38OVER HERE WE HAVE TO REBUILD THE

40:40WHOLE HOUSE.

40:40THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS WE'RE

40:41NOW LOOKING AT.

40:42WE WANT THE LIVE, THE HOUSES WE

40:45HAVE, THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.

40:45BUT YOU'RE GOING TO PAY THE

40:47PRICE IN THE INSURANCE AND THE

40:48COST OF DOING BUSINESS.

40:49THAT'S ALL.

40:51>>LYNN HURTAK: COUNCIL MEMBER

40:52CARLSON.

40:54>>BILL CARLSON: AT THE BEGINNING

40:56OF THIS PROCESS -- I USED TO DO

40:58PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT FOR A LIVING

41:00-- AND I RECOMMENDED THAT THE

41:02PROCESS GO NEIGHBORHOOD BY

41:04NEIGHBORHOOD, ASK EVERY

41:05NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE YOU PUT A

41:06LITTLE DENSITY AND WHERE YOU

41:12WOULD PUT COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.

41:14TRANSIT READY DEVELOPMENT TO

41:15CREATE NODES.

41:15I WAS INVOLVED IN SINGAPORE'S

41:18BUILD-OUT OF THEIR TRANSIT

41:19SYSTEM, WHICH IS ONE OF THE BEST

41:20IN THE WORLD, AND I'VE BEEN

41:22INVOLVED IN OTHERS IN OTHER

41:23PLACES.

41:26ALL OF THAT WAS IGNORED.

41:27THE NAME I CAME UP WITH, WHICH

41:30IS IN SEATTLE, TRANSIT READY

41:35DEVELOPMENT, BASTARDIZED IN

41:37CORRIDORS.

41:38I THINK WE OUGHT TO CHANGE

41:40TRANSIT READY CORRIDORS TO

41:42DEVELOP FRIENDLY CORRIDORS.

41:45IT'S NOT THE WAY MODERN CITIES

41:47AND SUCCESSFUL CITIES DEVELOP.

41:49EVERY ONE OF THOSE WILL END UP

41:52LOOKING LIKE DALE MABRY, WHEN

41:53TRYING TO BUILD A TRANSIT

41:54SYSTEM, YOU NEED NODES TO BUILD

41:55IT ON.

42:02FLORIDA'S ECONOMY HAS BEEN BUILT

42:03ON REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT AND

42:05GROWTH.

42:05I'M ON THE FLORIDA OF THE

42:07FLORIDA CHAMBER FOUNDATION.

42:09TRYING TO DIVERSIFY FLORIDA'S

42:11ECONOMY FOR YEARS AND IT'S

42:12WORKING.

42:12THE ENGINE OF FLORIDA'S NEW

42:15ECONOMY IS QUALITY OF LIFE, NOT

42:17OVERDEVELOPMENT.

42:18WE EVEN HAVE ASTROTURF

42:22ORGANIZATIONS GETTING PAID, LOOK

42:23LIKE ACTIVIST ORGANIZATIONS THAT

42:24ARE PUSHING FOR

42:27OVER-DEVELOPMENT.

42:27WE DON'T NEED OVER-DEVELOPMENT.

42:29I'VE BEEN TO LOTS OF CITIES IN

42:31THE U.S. AND AROUND THE WORLD IN

42:32THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND

42:33OVERDEVELOPMENT IS GOING TO

42:35CAUSE OUR QUALITY OF LIFE TO GO.

42:36HAD WE DONE IT NEIGHBORHOOD BY

42:38NEIGHBORHOOD, WE WOULD HAVE

42:39POCKETS OF DENSITY.

42:40WE WOULD HAVE HAD MUCH MORE

42:43SUCCESS, MORE DENSITY THAN THIS

42:45INCLUDED.

42:45BECAUSE WE DIDN'T GET BUY-IN

42:47FROM THE NEIGHBORHOODS, WE DON'T

42:47HAVE THAT.

42:48INSTEAD, THIS LOOKS LIKE A

42:51DEVELOPER-DRIVEN PROCESS.

42:53I EVEN PULLED PUBLIC RECORDS.

42:55I HAVEN'T COMPLETELY GOTTEN ALL

42:56THE PUBLIC RECORDS, EVEN THOUGH

42:58I PULLED THEM MONTHS AGO, BUT

43:01IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT THE

43:02PEOPLE OF OUR COMMUNITY WANT.

43:05IF WE WANT TO DIVERSIFY OUR

43:10ECONOMY, GARY MURMINO, RETIRED

43:11PROFESSOR FROM USF CALLED

43:13FLORIDA A GIANT PONZI SCHEME

43:16BECAUSE THE ECONOMY TODAY IS

43:19BASED ON THE GROWTH TOMORROW.

43:21WE NEED TO DIVERSIFY OUR

43:23ECONOMY.

43:24WE KILL OUR QUALITY OF LIFE.

43:27WE KILL WHERE WE'RE GOING.

43:28IT DOESN'T MEAN -- THE JARGON

43:30PAID FOR BY THE DEVELOPERS, OH,

43:32WELL, YOU'RE BLOCKING YOUNG

43:33PEOPLE OUT OR BLOCKING OTHER

43:34PEOPLE OUT.

43:35THERE'S LOTS OF HOUSING IN LOTS

43:37OF PLACES BUT WE DIDN'T LISTEN

43:38TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS.

43:39SO FOR MANY REASONS, I AGREE

43:42WITH SOME OF THE CHANGES MADE,

43:43BUT FOR MANY REASONS I'M VOTING

43:46NO, PARTLY BECAUSE I'M AGAINST

43:47IT.

43:48PARTLY AS A PROTEST VOTE BECAUSE

43:50THERE WAS TOO MUCH DEVELOPER

43:51INTEREST.

43:51I'M NOT AGAINST DEVELOPMENT.

43:52I USED TO WORK WITH DEVELOPERS.

43:54I THINK WE NEED DEVELOPERS, BUT

43:56EVERYTHING HAS TO BE DRIVEN BY

43:58QUALITY OF LIFE AND THE

43:59NEIGHBORHOODS, NOT BY SOME

44:01BACKROOM DEALS THAT HAVE BEEN

44:02CUT ON DOCUMENTS LIKE THIS.

44:04THANK YOU.

44:05>>LYNN HURTAK: CHAIR CLENDENIN,

44:07YOU HAVE TO UNMUTE YOURSELF.

44:09>>ALAN CLENDENIN: THANK YOU.

44:10THANK YOU, COUNCILWOMAN.

44:11WHILE I DON'T AGREE -- I DON'T

44:14DISAGREE, COUNCILMAN CARLSON,

44:15ABOUT THE IDEA OF HAVING TRANSIT

44:17NODES, BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S

44:19MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE.

44:20I THINK THAT TRANSIT-READY

44:21CORRIDORS AND NODES ARE

44:24SYMBIOTIC AND CAN WORK TOGETHER

44:25WITH DIFFERENT TYPES OF

44:26DEVELOPMENT, WHERE YOU CAN SEE

44:27MORE OF LIKE A MINI-CITY CENTER,

44:29KIND OF LIKE WHAT YOU SEE WHAT

44:30IS HAPPENING WITH MIDTOWN OR

44:32SOME OF THE HIGHER DENSITY

44:35INTENSIVE DEVELOPMENTS.

44:35BUT THERE STILL HAS TO BE SOME

44:40RELATIVELY MORE DENSE AREAS THAT

44:41WOULD SUPPORT BUSES AND STOPS

44:44ALONG THE WAY, REAL CITY, ANY

44:47MAJOR EUROPEAN CITY OR SOMEBODY

44:48THAT CAN MOVE PEOPLE ALONG DO.

44:51AGAIN, I DON'T DISAGREE WITH YOU

44:52ON THE IDEA THAT MAYBE OUR NEXT

44:54MOVE IS TO LOOK AT THESE NODES

44:55THAT YOU SPEAK OF, BECAUSE I

44:58AGREE WITH THESE CORRIDORS.

44:59THOSE TYPE OF AREAS, BUT I ALSO

45:01AGREE WITH THE CORRIDORS.

45:02I LOGGED ON TODAY BECAUSE I

45:03WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT I

45:04SUPPORTED COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK'S

45:06TWO MOTIONS.

45:07ONE WAS TO REMOVE ARMENIA FROM

45:12THAT CLASSIFICATION, AND THE

45:13OTHER WAS TO GO TO STATUS QUO ON

45:20THE DENSITY.

45:21I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I WAS

45:22ONLINE TO BE ABLE TO SUPPORT

45:23BOTH OF THOSE MOTIONS.

45:24WE WERE IT'S PROPER, I WOULD BE

45:26HAPPY TO SECOND YOUR MOTION,

45:27COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK.

45:29>>LYNN HURTAK: WELL, THANK YOU.

45:36TO SPEAK TO THAT, WE'VE HAD A

45:38LOT OF PUBLIC COMMENT OR WE'VE

45:40HAD A LOT OF ENGAGEMENT, WHICH

45:42HAS BEEN WONDERFUL, BUT THE

45:43THING THAT'S FRUSTRATED ME MOST

45:45ABOUT THIS IS AB 180 AND THE

45:49INABILITY FOR US TO MAKE

45:50DECISIONS THAT WE THINK ARE

45:51CORRECT.

45:51WE WANT TO TAKE DENSITY OUT OF

45:54THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREA.

45:56THAT IS JUST SMART GROWTH IN

45:57PLANNING.

45:58YOU ALL WANTED IT.

45:59WE ALL WANTED IT.

46:00THE COMMUNITY WANTED IT, BUT THE

46:02STATE SAID, NO, WE CAN'T DO THAT

46:05UNTIL 2027, JUNE, I BELIEVE.

46:09JULY 27 -- SEPTEMBER OF 27.

46:13MAN.

46:14SO WE HAVE QUITE A BIT OF WAYS

46:15UNTIL WE CAN DO THAT.

46:16SO UNTIL WE CAN ACTUALLY FIX IT

46:18THE WAY WE WANT TO FIX IT, I

46:20DON'T THINK IT'S RIGHT TO HAVE

46:21IT IN THERE AT ALL.

46:23THEN WE CAN FIX IT, I THINK

46:24GOING TOWARD WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER

46:27CARLSON SAID, REALLY LOOKING AT

46:28THE SPECIFIC PLACES WE REALLY

46:30WANT DENSITY TO BE INCREASED,

46:32ESPECIALLY MAINLY VERY FAR OUT

46:35OF THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREA,

46:37AREAS WE DON'T HAVE ANY DENSITY

46:38RIGHT NOW, THAT WE'RE REALLY

46:41TRYING TO BUILD THAT AREN'T

46:42NECESSARILY THE POPULAR PLACES

46:43TO BUILD, BUT THERE ARE PLACES

46:45THAT WE CAN HAVE ROOM TO BUILD.

46:50I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS.

46:51I KNOW WE HAVE QUITE A FEW

46:52PEOPLE THAT WANT TO SPEAK IN

46:55PUBLIC COMMENT.

46:55I'LL OPEN THE FLOOR TO PUBLIC

46:58COMMENT.

46:58IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK, IF WE

46:59COULD JUST HAVE MAYBE FOUR OR

47:01FIVE OF YOU LINE UP AGAINST THE

47:03WALL, AND THEN AS THAT CALMS

47:07DOWN, WE CAN PULL MORE PEOPLE.

47:08IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU

47:10ALL WANTED TO SAY?

47:12>> WE DID WANT TO NOTE THAT THE

47:14ALTERNATIVE THAT YOU ALL

47:16RECEIVED, WE ALSO TRANSMITTED TO

47:17THE TWO COUNCIL MEMBERS ONLINE

47:18AS WELL.

47:19>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU,

47:20WONDERFUL.

47:22PUBLIC COMMENT, ANYONE?

47:23REALLY?

47:28YOU PAID FOR PARKING, MIGHT AS

47:29WELL.

47:37OH, BECAUSE THERE IS AN EVENT

47:39GOING ON.

47:39I ACTUALLY AM WORKING ON THAT,

47:43ON GETTING PARKING EXEMPTIONS

47:44FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING TO

47:47CITY MEETINGS.

47:47WE'RE WORKING ON IT.

47:48IT JUST ISN'T DONE YET.

47:54SANDY, I LOVE THAT SHIRT.

47:56YOU'VE GOT BEAGLES ON YOU.

47:57THAT WAS DONE JUST FOR ME, I'M

47:59SORRY.

48:02I'M

48:02SURE.

48:02LOOK AT THOSE.

48:04BEAGLES.

48:04AREN'T THOSE CUTE?

48:08SANDY, YOU HEARD, I LOVE YOUR

48:10SHIRT WITH THE BEAGLES.

48:12>> THANK YOU.

48:16THIS ISN'T GOING TO TAKE LONG.

48:19I'LL WAIT UNTIL EVERYBODY GETS

48:23THE MAP.

48:31THIS MAP IS A WORK IN PROGRESS.

48:32I'M WORKING ON A LARGER PROJECT

48:35ABOUT GETTING WEST TAMPA --

48:36>>LYNN HURTAK: IT IS.

48:37NEVER MIND.

48:40START WITH YOUR NAME.

48:43>> THIS WON'T TAKE LONG.

48:45I JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU THE

48:46MAP THAT I AM WORKING ON.

48:47>>LYNN HURTAK: NAME?

48:49>> OH, MY NAME IS SANDY SANCHEZ.

48:52EXCUSE ME.

48:55ANYWAY, THIS IS A MAP THAT I'VE

48:56BEEN WORKING ON BECAUSE I HAVE A

48:58PROJECT THAT'S COMING UP THAT I

48:59DO WANT TO TALK TO THE PLANNING

49:01COMMISSION AND TO THE CITY

49:03PLANNERS ABOUT BEGINNING TO

49:05NOTICE WEST TAMPA AND OUR NEEDS.

49:07I TOOK A SECTION OF IT BASICALLY

49:12BETWEEN CYPRESS AND KENNEDY,

49:15DALE MABRY, AND THE RIVER, AND I

49:17WANTED TO SHOW YOU ALL OF THE

49:22MULTIFAMILY UNITS THAT HAVE BEEN

49:23BUILT IN THE LAST TWO YEARS, AND

49:25SOME OF THEM THAT ARE IN THE

49:28WORKS.

49:31OVER 6,593.

49:32BUT BESIDES THAT, WE ALSO HAVE

49:37ALESSI'S BAKERY, JUST ADDED

49:38ABOUT A HUNDRED CARS A DAY TO

49:41CYPRESS.

49:42WE ALSO HAVE THE JEWISH

49:44COMMUNITY CENTER THAT HAS

49:45SPECIAL EVENTS, 400, 500 CARS

49:46THAT COME INTO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

49:50JULIAN B. LANE WHICH HAS NO

49:51PARKING TO SPEAK OF, SO THEY

49:53PARK IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS.

49:54AND THEN THE UNIVERSITY OF TAMPA

49:58HAS 10,500 STUDENTS.

49:59IF ONLY 25% OF THEM HAVE CARS,

50:01YOU CAN SEE WHAT WE'RE TALKING

50:03ABOUT AS FAR AS VOLUME COMING

50:05INTO OUR NEIGHBORHOODS.

50:06AND THE PROBLEM IS THAT THESE

50:08NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE NO SIDEWALKS.

50:10SO NOT ONLY JEOPARDIZES OUR

50:12QUALITY OF LIFE, IT IS THE

50:15SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE

50:16THERE.

50:17SO I WANTED TO SHOW YOU, I

50:20APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT

50:23COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK IS GOING TO

50:25MAKE A MOTION TO TAKE IT OFF THE

50:26LIST, BUT I WANTED YOU TO SEE

50:28THAT IT IS NOT A WHIM.

50:30IT'S A REALITY WHAT'S GOING ON

50:32-- THIS IS THREE SQUARE MILES OF

50:34WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THIS SMALL

50:37AREA WITHIN WEST TAMPA SOUTH,

50:38I'M CALLING IT, SO THAT WE CAN

50:40GET SOME WORK DONE.

50:41BUT YOU CAN SEE, AND THESE ARE

50:42THINGS THAT THE COMPREHENSIVE

50:45PLAN FOLKS HAVE NOT ANALYZED,

50:48HAVE NOT LOOKED TO SEE EXACTLY

50:49WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THOSE

50:51NEIGHBORHOODS.

50:51SO I THANK YOU, THOSE OF YOU WHO

50:54HAVE MENTIONED TO GET IN TOUCH

50:56WITH THE NEIGHBORHOODS BEFORE

50:58YOU START BUTCHERING THEM.

51:00LET US HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO

51:03SHOW YOU WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON

51:04IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS.

51:04THANK YOU.

51:17>>MARTIN SHELBY: MS. BENNETT HAS

51:17SEVEN NAMES.

51:19PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR

51:20PRESENCE, SAY SOMETHING SO I CAN

51:21SEE AND HEAR YOU.

51:27JOHN OZZY?

51:29JOHN OZY.

51:31>> IT'S DAY.

51:31>>MARTIN SHELBY: THAT'S A D.

51:34WELL, THAT WAS CLOSE.

51:35MY APOLOGIES.

51:40MARK BOWERSKI.

51:40>> PRESENT.

51:41>>MARTIN SHELBY: I'M BATTING A

51:42THOUSAND.

51:42JAMIE ADAIR.

51:47BOBBIE O'BRIEN.

51:48>> HERE.

51:51>>MARTIN SHELBY: GINA YOUNG,

51:53JOAN.

51:53>> HERE.

51:53>>MARTIN SHELBY: PAULA PERRY.

51:55>> HERE.

51:56>>MARTIN SHELBY: PAULA MECKLEY.

51:58>>MARTIN SHELBY: SEVEN NAMES FOR

51:59A TOTAL OF TEN MINUTES.

52:02>>LYNN HURTAK: PLEASE START WITH

52:03YOUR NAME.

52:03YOU'LL HAVE TEN MINUTES.

52:04>> HI.

52:05MY NAME IS CARROLL ANN BENNETT.

52:07I AM A LIFE LONG RESIDENT OF

52:08TAMPA.

52:09FIRST, I WANT TO ADD MY SUPPORT

52:10TO SANDY SANCHEZ AND WEST TAMPA

52:12FOR THE REMOVAL OF ARMENIA AS

52:15TRC.

52:15SECOND, I WANT TO ADDRESS THE

52:17CITYWIDE INCREASE IN BY RIGHT

52:18DENSITY.

52:19THIS IS WHAT I KEEP GETTING

52:20ASKED, WHAT IS BY RIGHT DENSITY?

52:23IT IS NOT A GUARANTEED DENSITY.

52:25IT IS THE MAXIMUM DENSITY

52:28SOMEONE CAN ASK FOR WITHOUT A

52:31BONUS PROVISION.

52:31IF SOMEONE WANTS TO EXCEED THE

52:33MAXIMUM DENSITY, THEY MUST DO A

52:35BONUS AGREEMENT.

52:38THE STATE DOES NOT ALLOW CITIES

52:40TO REDUCE BY RIGHT DENSITY

52:42MAXIMUMS.

52:43SO ONCE YOU RAISE THEM, IT IS

52:46PERMANENT.

52:46YOU CANNOT UNDO IT.

52:47BUT BONUS DENSITY IS DIFFERENT.

52:48IT IS A DISCRETIONARY INCENTIVE

52:52PROGRAM THAT IS APPROVED BY YOU

52:54ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS.

52:55YOU CAN SAY NO.

52:56YOU CAN TWEAK THE CEILINGS AND

52:59THE CRITERIA.

53:00THIS IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND

53:02BECAUSE IT IS HOW WE GOT HERE

53:04TODAY.

53:04THE PLANNING COMMISSION WAS

53:05TRYING TO DO A GOOD THING AND

53:07DIRECT POPULATION AWAY FROM THE

53:10CHHA.

53:10THEY PROPOSED ELIMINATING THE

53:11ABILITY TO GET BONUS DENSITY

53:13THERE.

53:15YOU SEE HERE, THIS IS THEIR

53:17ORIGINAL VERSION.

53:18>>LYNN HURTAK: GIVE A SECOND FOR

53:20CTTV TO BRING IT UP.

53:21THERE YOU GO.

53:22>> BONUSES ARE NOT PERMITTED

53:23WITHIN THE COASTAL HIGH HAZARD

53:28AREA, CHHA.

53:28EXCLUDING THE CHHA.

53:31IT WAS A GREAT IDEA, AND IT

53:33WOULD HAVE WORKED IF THEY HAD

53:35STOPPED THERE.

53:35BUT THEY WENT A STEP FARTHER AND

53:38ADDED A FATAL FLAW TO THEIR

53:40PLAN.

53:40THEY ADDED AN INCREASE TO THE BY

53:43RIGHT DENSITY OUTSIDE THE CHHA

53:45BOUNDARIES.

53:47THIS IS THE CHHA MAP.

53:50THIS MAP IS REGULARLY UPDATED.

53:53INCREASING DENSITY OUTSIDE THE

53:54MAP IS A FATAL FLAW BECAUSE SOME

53:57THINGS INSIDE THE BOUNDARY TODAY

54:00-- SOME THINGS OUTSIDE THE

54:01BOUNDARY TODAY WILL BE INSIDE

54:03THE BOUNDARY TOMORROW.

54:04SO THE MAXIMUM DENSITY HERE, FOR

54:07INSTANCE, WOULD BE INCREASED

54:09TODAY, BECAUSE IT'S IN THE

54:11WHITE, WHEN IT IS OUTSIDE THE

54:13BOUNDARY, BUT IT WOULD HAVE TO

54:14BE DECREASED TOMORROW WHEN THE

54:16BOUNDARY IS MOVED.

54:17AS I SAID, THE STATE WON'T LET

54:20YOU DO THAT.

54:21ONCE IT'S INCREASED, IT STAYS

54:23INCREASED, NO MATTER WHAT

54:23HAPPENS TO THIS MAP.

54:26THE SOLUTION WAS TO LEAVE THE BY

54:28RIGHT ALONE AND JUST ELIMINATE

54:29THE BONUSING PROVISION IN THE

54:32CHHA.

54:33INSTEAD, A DATE WAS ADDED TO THE

54:36CHHA DENSITIES.

54:41DENSITY IN CHHA, FOOTNOTE ONE,

54:43THE MAXIMUM DENSITY APPLIES TO

54:44ALL LANDS WITHIN THE CHHA AS

54:47ESTABLISHED ON AUGUST 4, 2021.

54:51THIS IS A FATAL FLAW.

54:53WHEN THE MAP IS UPDATED, WHICH

54:55IS PROBABLY SOON, IT WILL CREATE

54:57TWO DIFFERENT DENSITIES IN THE

54:59CHHA.

54:59THERE WILL BE AN OLD MAP CHHA

55:02DENSITY AND A NEW MAP CHHA

55:04DENSITY.

55:04THE DENSITY BECOMES A MOVING

55:07TARGET.

55:07DENSITY WOULD HAVE TO BE

55:09CALCULATED WITH AN OBSOLETE MAP.

55:11TRY EXPLAINING THAT TO PEOPLE.

55:13YES, YOUR LAND IS IN THE CHHA,

55:14BUT UNTIL WE GET A PRECISE GIS

55:17CALCULATION OF PERCENTAGES ON AN

55:19OBSOLETE MAP, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT

55:21YOUR DENSITY IS.

55:23EVERYONE NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND

55:25WHAT BLANKET DENSITY WILL REALLY

55:27DO.

55:27MORE PROPERTIES WILL SOON BE IN

55:29THE CHHA.

55:30A BLANKET INCREASE WILL BE

55:32PUTTING ADDITIONAL DENSITY IN

55:34THE CHHA.

55:37AT THIS POINT, THEY NEEDED TO

55:38STICK A FORK IN IT.

55:40IT WAS DONE.

55:42HOW MANY PEOPLE SAY THE PROBLEM

55:43WITH LAND DEVELOPMENT IS THAT IT

55:45NEEDS TO BE MORE COMPLICATED?

55:47IS THIS A GOOD WAY TO PLAN A

55:51CITY?

55:51SO WHY RAISE THE BY RIGHT IN THE

55:53FIRST PLACE?

55:55I WAS TOLD THAT WITH NO BONUSING

55:58IN THE CHHA, WE WERE LOSING A

56:02POTENTIAL FOR 2,091 UNITS

56:03RAISING THE MAXIMUM IN SEVEN

56:05FLUS CITYWIDE WAS COMPENSATION

56:06FOR THE LOSS.

56:07PLANNING COMMISSION DID NOT HAVE

56:08A FIGURE FOR HOW MANY UNITS

56:09WOULD BE GAINED SO I GOT THE

56:11EXACT ACREAGE EACH FLU FROM THE

56:13GIS DEPARTMENT AND DID THE MATH.

56:20CC-35 HAS 3376 ACRES.

56:22INCREASED BY FIVE UNITS AN ACRE,

56:24WHICH WOULD CREATE ADDITIONAL

56:2616,882 UNITS.

56:27ADD THEM ALL UP, 66,771 UNITS.

56:33NOW, YOU CAN ARGUE THAT THERE

56:34MAY BE SOME TWEAKS TO THIS.

56:37BUT TWEAKS WON'T TURN 66,000

56:41INTO 2,000.

56:43SO THERE IS A THIRD REASON THE

56:45PLAN SHOULD HAVE BEEN SCRAPPED.

56:47SB 180.

56:48THE STATE SAID YOU CAN'T

56:49ELIMINATE BONUSING IN THE CHHA,

56:52WHICH WAS THE WHOLE REASON WE

56:53WENT DOWN THIS ROAD IN THE FIRST

56:56PLACE.

56:57THEY WERE FORCED TO PUT BONUSING

56:59BACK IN THE CHHA.

57:00YOU SEE HERE, CHHA, DENSITY

57:03BONUS, AND HERE ARE THE NUMBERS

57:04BACK IN IT.

57:06SO NOW THERE WAS NO LOSS TO

57:09COMPENSATE FOR, SO WHY ARE WE

57:11STILL RIDING THIS DEAD HORSE?

57:16THE FOURTH REASON TO FINALLY

57:18BURY THIS DEAD HORSE ISN'T EVEN

57:19TECHNICAL.

57:21I KEEP SAYING THE BONUSES ARE

57:23VALUABLE.

57:23WE SHOULDN'T GIVE IT AWAY FOR

57:25FREE.

57:25I FOUND OUT EXACTLY HOW VALUABLE

57:27THEY ARE.

57:28I GOT ALL THE BONUS AGREEMENTS

57:29FROM 2025 AND THE FIRST FIVE

57:30MONTHS OF 2026.

57:3421 OF THE 23 AGREEMENTS WERE IN

57:38THOSE SEVEN FLUS.

57:40I COMPILED THE DATA ON THOSE 21

57:44AGREEMENTS.

57:47OVER $6 MILLION IN C.I.P. FUNDS,

57:51$684,000 IN UNDERGROUND

57:52UTILITIES.

57:5368 AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS.

57:57THE $6 MILLION C.I.P. PROJECTS

57:58WENT TO THE GREEN SPINE CYCLE

58:01TRACK, COMPLETE STREETS, SAFETY

58:03IMPROVEMENTS, MULTIMODAL

58:04NETWORK, ET CETERA.

58:04THIS IS THE COMPLETE LIST RIGHT

58:08HERE.

58:11THERE WAS ONE OTHER REASON

58:12FLOATED AS TO WHY WE HAD TO

58:15RAISE THE BY RIGHT MAXIMUMS.

58:17IF WE DIDN'T RAISE THEM, A TIER

58:18BONUS SYSTEM WOULD BE CREATED

58:19WHICH WOULD BE CONFUSING AND

58:23COMPLICATED.

58:23BUT THE NEW BONUS SYSTEM, WHICH

58:25I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR, IS A

58:27TIERED AND STACKED SYSTEM.

58:30THE BONUSES BELOW CAN BE STACKED

58:32UP TO THE BONUS CEILING OF THE

58:35FLU.

58:35BONUSES CAN BE COMBINED UP TO A

58:38CEILING BASED ON THE FLU.

58:40SO TO ME THAT REASON DIDN'T MAKE

58:42ANY SENSE.

58:46SOUTH TAMPA HAS HAD A TSUNAMI OF

58:48GROWTH UNDER THE CURRENT DENSITY

58:49LIMITS.

58:50IN A TEN-YEAR PERIOD, ITS GROWTH

58:52WAS 13 TIMES HIGHER THAN THE

58:55UNIVERSITY PLANNING DISTRICT,

58:56WHICH SHOULD HAVE HAD THE

58:57HIGHEST GROWTH RATE BECAUSE OF

58:59JOBS, EASILY INCREASED TRANSIT,

59:01AND IT IS WHERE PEOPLE CAN

59:02SHELTER IN PLACE.

59:04THE SOUTH TAMPA TSUNAMI, AS

59:05SANDY POINTED OUT, IS NOW

59:08SWAMPING ITS NORTHERN NEIGHBOR

59:10WEST TAMPA UNDER THE CURRENT

59:12DENSITY LIMITS.

59:13BOTH AREAS WILL CONTINUE TO GROW

59:16UNDER THE CURRENT LIMITS.

59:18OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS, I HAVE

59:20GONE TO COUNTLESS COMP PLAN

59:23MEETINGS AND CONSISTENTLY

59:24OBJECTED TO BLANKET POLICIES.

59:27THE PLANNING COMMISSION APPEARED

59:28TO AGREE AND SAID THEY WANT TO

59:30DIRECT DENSITY TOWARD WHERE IT

59:31IS NEEDED AND AWAY FROM WHERE IT

59:33IS NOT NEEDED.

59:34BUT THE CITYWIDE INCREASE AND BY

59:36RIGHT DENSITY ACHIEVES THE

59:38OPPOSITE.

59:38IT IS A BLANKET POLICY.

59:41AND A BLANKET IS NOT NEEDED IF

59:43YOU ARE ALREADY RED HOT.

59:47THOSE RED HOT AREAS DON'T NEED

59:50INCREASED POTENTIAL.

59:50THEY WILL CONTINUE TO GROW

59:51WITHOUT IT.

59:54INCREASING POTENTIAL CITYWIDE

59:55WILL NOT MAKE DEVELOPERS BUILD

59:57IN AREAS WHERE THEY DON'T WANT

1:00:00TO BUILD.

1:00:00YOU MUST DO SOMETHING ELSE TO

1:00:02ACHIEVE THAT GOAL.

1:00:03PLEASE LEAVE THE CURRENT MAXIMUM

1:00:05BY RIGHT DENSITIES AT THEIR

1:00:06CURRENT LEVELS AND ALLOW THE NEW

1:00:08AND IMPROVED BONUS SYSTEM WITH

1:00:11ITS MASSIVE INCREASED LIMITS AND

1:00:13NEW TRCs TO CREATE GROWTH IN

1:00:15THE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT

1:00:16DESPERATELY NEED IT.

1:00:16THANK YOU.

1:00:18>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU VERY

1:00:19MUCH.

1:00:19NEXT SPEAKER, IF WE HAVE MORE

1:00:21SPEAKERS, PLEASE LINE UP.

1:00:27PLEASE START WITH YOUR NAME.

1:00:28YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES.

1:00:30>> HELLO.

1:00:30MY NAME IS CYNTHIA SHELLA

1:00:35BARGER.

1:00:36I SUBMITTED MY FULL OBJECTION

1:00:38INTO THE PUBLIC RECORD FOR THIS

1:00:40MEETING.

1:00:41TONIGHT, I WANT TO ADDRESS THE

1:00:42COUNCIL DIRECTLY ON THE CORE OF

1:00:43THIS ISSUE.

1:00:44I'M HERE TO VOICE MY STRONG

1:00:46OPPOSITION TO THE PROPOSED LAND

1:00:47USE AMENDMENT THAT ELIMINATES

1:00:51DEVELOPER BONUS DENSITY

1:00:51INCENTIVES.

1:00:54HANDING CORPORATE DEVELOPERS A

1:00:55MASSIVE PERMANENT INCREASE IN BY

1:00:58RIGHT DENSITY FOR FREE IS AN

1:01:00ABSOLUTE BETRAYAL OF OUR TAMPA

1:01:02NEIGHBORHOODS.

1:01:03IT STRIPS AWAY OUR COMMUNITY'S

1:01:04LEVERAGE FOR VITAL AFFORDABLE

1:01:06HOUSING AND LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE

1:01:09IMPROVEMENTS.

1:01:09KEEP THE DENSITY CEILINGS

1:01:13EXACTLY WHERE THEY ARE.

1:01:13THIS PUSH FOR UNCHECKED GROWTH

1:01:16REVEALS A SYSTEMATIC FAILURE

1:01:17INSIDE OUR PLANNING DEPARTMENT.

1:01:20RIGHT NOW, THE PLANNING

1:01:20COMMISSION IS ADVANCING TEXT

1:01:23AMENDMENTS TO ACCOMMODATE

1:01:23BUILDING A NEW RAYS' STADIUM

1:01:26WRAPPED IN INTENSE, HIGH DENSITY

1:01:31HOTELS AND ENTERTAINMENT

1:01:32DISTRICTS.

1:01:32TEXT AMENDMENTS ARE FORMAL

1:01:33CHANGES TO OUR CITY GROWTH RULE

1:01:38BOOK.

1:01:39LITERALLY REWRITING THE LAWS TO

1:01:40MAKE THIS MASSIVE COMMERCIAL

1:01:43FOOTPRINT LEGAL ON PUBLIC

1:01:46COLLEGE LAND, ALL WHILE

1:01:48PRETENDING ENVIRONMENTAL

1:01:49PROTECTIONS DO NOT APPLY.

1:01:50THEY ARE ACCEPTING BLURRED MAPS

1:01:53SUBMITTED BY THE RAYS' LAWYERS

1:01:55WHERE MAJOR ENVIRONMENTALLY

1:01:57SENSITIVE AREAS BLEED INTO

1:01:59PUBLIC LAND BOUNDARIES.

1:02:01THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

1:02:02COMMISSION EXPLICITLY FLAGS THE

1:02:05SITE'S SEVERE FLOODING

1:02:07VULNERABILITIES YET PLANNERS ARE

1:02:10COMPLETELY IGNORING THOSE

1:02:11REALITIES.

1:02:12YOU CANNOT SAFELY UNLEASH THIS

1:02:15INTENSE STADIUM DENSITY ON TOP

1:02:17OF A FLOOD-PRONE MARSH BASIN AND

1:02:22MILITARY BROWNFIELD WITHOUT

1:02:23TRANSPARENT READABLE MAPPING.

1:02:25THE PUBLIC DESERVES

1:02:27TRANSPARENCY, BUT WE ARE MET

1:02:28WITH AGGRESSIVE SILENCING

1:02:31TACTICS.

1:02:31IT IS ENTIRELY UNPROFESSIONAL

1:02:34FOR COUNCILMAN ALAN CLENDENIN TO

1:02:36WEAR A RAYS' JERSEY TO OFFICIAL

1:02:40COUNCIL SESSIONS.

1:02:40WORSE YET WAS WATCHING THE TAPE

1:02:44FROM OCTOBER 15 WHEN

1:02:45COUNCILWOMAN LYNN HURTAK TRIED

1:02:46TO OBJECT TO CHAIR CLENDENIN,

1:02:49FAST TRACKING THE BINDING

1:02:50STADIUM COMMUNITY BENEFITS

1:02:52AGREEMENT CONTRACT VOTE AND

1:03:24START WITH YOUR NAME.

1:03:25YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES.

1:03:27>> ALI ANDOVITCH.

1:03:30FIRST THANK YOU COUNCIL AND

1:03:33PLANNING AND CITY STAFF FOR THE

1:03:34WORK ON THIS EFFORT.

1:03:35THE QUESTION, IS THERE COMMUNITY

1:03:36BENEFIT IN AND OF ITSELF OF

1:03:38ALLOWING MORE HOMES IN OUR

1:03:40COMMUNITY?

1:03:40I'D SAY THE ANSWER IS YES.

1:03:42FIRST, IT'S ABOUT HOME

1:03:44AVAILABILITY.

1:03:44A RECENT TAMPA BAY PARTNERSHIP

1:03:45STUDY SHOWED THAT IN OUR REGION

1:03:49BETWEEN 2018 AND 2023, WE ADDED

1:03:51NEARLY A HUNDRED THOUSAND NEW

1:03:53HOUSEHOLDS AND ONLY 82 UNITS

1:03:55PRODUCED TO MEET THAT NEED.

1:03:56ASIDE FROM AVAILABILITY, IT'S

1:03:58ABOUT VARIETY.

1:03:59THERE'S MORE HOME CHOICES WHEN

1:04:01WE HAVE MORE FLEXIBILITY ABOUT

1:04:02WHAT WE CAN BUILD.

1:04:03AND THAT FLEXIBILITY IN THE

1:04:05RULES ALSO MAKES SURE THAT WHEN

1:04:07WE INVEST PUBLIC RESOURCES LIKE

1:04:09FUNDING IN PUBLIC LAND TO GET

1:04:11DEEPER GUARANTEED AFFORDABILITY,

1:04:13THESE RESOURCES CAN GO FURTHER

1:04:14TO SERVE MORE IN NEED.

1:04:16SO THERE IS A MORE EFFICIENT USE

1:04:18OF THOSE RESOURCES.

1:04:19AND THEN LASTLY, WHEN THOSE

1:04:21ALLOWANCES ARE ALSO TIED TO

1:04:23TRANSIT, WE MAKE BETTER USE OF

1:04:24OUR SHARED AMENITIES AND ALSO

1:04:26TIE HOMES TO AFFORDABLE

1:04:28TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS.

1:04:29SO TO ILLUSTRATE THIS POINT, I

1:04:32WANT TO TELL A BIT OF A PERSONAL

1:04:33STORY.

1:04:34I RECENTLY BECAME A FIRST-TIME

1:04:37HOMEOWNER AND THAT'S AFTER

1:04:37LIVING AT HOME FOR NEARLY TEN

1:04:40YEARS TO SAVE UP AND PAY OFF

1:04:42DEBT.

1:04:43BUT I WAS ABLE TO STAY IN MY

1:04:45SOUTH TAMPA COMMUNITY DOING THAT

1:04:47AND NEAR TRANSIT WITH GREAT

1:04:49ACCESS TO DOWNTOWN AND THAT WAS

1:04:51THANKS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF A

1:04:52SMALL NUMBER OF CONDO BUILDINGS

1:04:53THAT WERE BUILT IN THE 1980s.

1:04:56THESE WERE 800 TO 1200 SQUARE

1:04:58FOOT UNITS RANGING FROM 250,000

1:05:04TO 350,000K, SO I THINK FOR SOME

1:05:05PEOPLE, THAT'S STILL A STRETCH,

1:05:08BUT THAT'S WHERE DOWN PAYMENT

1:05:09ASSISTANCE COULD HELP.

1:05:10I DID NOTICE IN LOOKING THAT

1:05:11THERE ARE HOLES WHERE THE HOMES

1:05:13ARE AVAILABLE IN OUR COMMUNITY

1:05:14STILL.

1:05:14I THINK WITH SOME MORE

1:05:17ALLOWANCES, WE COULD MAKE MORE

1:05:18OF THIS SORT OF OWNERSHIP

1:05:20ACCESSIBLE AND POSSIBLE.

1:05:22SO THOSE ARE KIND OF THE STAKES.

1:05:24FOR THAT REASON I SUPPORT THE BY

1:05:26RIGHT STEP UP IN DENSITIES AND I

1:05:28ALSO SUPPORT ALL OF THE PROPOSED

1:05:30TRANSIT READY CORRIDORS, ALL OF

1:05:32THIS AS SHOWN IN THE CURRENTLY

1:05:34PROPOSED PLAN.

1:05:34AND AS WE HEARD TONIGHT FROM THE

1:05:36PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF, PART

1:05:38OF THAT BY RIGHT DENSITY STEP-UP

1:05:40WAS TO SIMPLIFY THE WHOLE

1:05:42PROCESS SO WE'RE NOT GETTING

1:05:43INTO MULTIPLE STEPS TO TAKE

1:05:45ADVANTAGE OF THIS ADDITIONAL

1:05:46DENSITY.

1:05:47SO I WOULD ADVOCATE TO KEEP

1:05:48THINGS SIMPLE, KEEP THE BY RIGHT

1:05:51STEP UPS AND KEEP ALL THE

1:05:53CURRENTLY PROPOSED TRANSIT READY

1:05:55CORRIDORS.

1:05:55>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU VERY

1:05:56MUCH.

1:05:57NEXT SPEAKER.

1:05:58IF THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE, IF YOU

1:05:59COULD HOP ON THE WALL SO I KNOW

1:06:00WHAT'S COMING.

1:06:02START WITH YOUR NAME.

1:06:03YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES.

1:06:06>> DANA LAS RUTH, 33605.

1:06:09I ACTUALLY DIDN'T FULLY PREPARE

1:06:13A WHOLE PUBLIC COMMENT BECAUSE I

1:06:14ALREADY THOUGHT WE LITIGATED

1:06:15THIS LAST YEAR.

1:06:18I MADE SOME GOOD PUBLIC COMMENTS

1:06:23THEN.

1:06:23I DIDN'T REALLY EXPECT THERE

1:06:25WOULD BE MANY CHANGES HAPPENING

1:06:27TONIGHT.

1:06:27I KIND OF FEEL LIKE WHAT I'M

1:06:29GOING TO SAY IS AN UPHILL BATTLE

1:06:31IN THIS ROOM.

1:06:32I FEEL LIKE MINDS ARE ALREADY

1:06:33MADE UP AND MOTIONS ARE READY TO

1:06:36BE MADE TO MAKE SOME CHANGES.

1:06:38BUT I AM STANDING UP HERE TO

1:06:41SUPPORT OUR PLANNING

1:06:43COMMISSION'S RESEARCH, THEIR

1:06:44WORK, THEIR HARD WORK OVER YEARS

1:06:47IN DESIGNING THIS PLAN.

1:06:49THE STUDIES THAT THEY HAVE DONE

1:06:51TO SHOW WHY THEY ARE PROPOSING

1:06:53WHAT THEY ARE PROPOSING.

1:06:56YOU KNOW I SUPPORT THE TRANSIT

1:06:58READY CORRIDORS, ALL OF THEM.

1:07:00I WOULD HIGHLY SUPPORT LEAVING

1:07:04THOSE IN.

1:07:05I WANT TO EXPOUND UPON ALI'S

1:07:08POINT.

1:07:09THERE'S BEEN SOME ARTICLES AND

1:07:11THINGS CIRCULATING ABOUT THAT WE

1:07:12DON'T ACTUALLY NEED MORE

1:07:14HOUSING.

1:07:15YES, WE DO.

1:07:16THERE WAS A REPORT FROM THE

1:07:18TAMPA BAY PARTNERSHIP THAT WAS

1:07:19PUBLISHED EARLIER THIS YEAR

1:07:21CALLED THE HOUSING EQUATION.

1:07:23THAT'S WHERE THE NUMBERS CAME

1:07:25FROM THAT ALI SHARED BUT VERY

1:07:28SPECIFICALLY BETWEEN 2018 AND

1:07:302023, IN THAT PERIOD OF TIME,

1:07:31THE REGION, SO WE'RE NOT JUST

1:07:33LOOKING AT TAMPA, BUT THE

1:07:36REGION, GAINED APPROXIMATELY

1:07:4199,675 HOUSEHOLDS, BUT ONLY

1:07:44ADDED 82,000 HOUSING UNITS.

1:07:47THERE IS AN AFFORDABILITY CRISIS

1:07:49AS WELL, WHICH WAS BROUGHT UP

1:07:53EARLIER.

1:07:53MEDIAN RENT INCREASED BY 48% IN

1:07:55THAT PERIOD OF TIME.

1:07:57BUT OUR AVERAGE WAGES ONLY WENT

1:07:59UP 29%.

1:08:01I BELIEVE IN THE SUPPLY SIDE OF

1:08:05PROVIDING AFFORDABLE HOUSING, AS

1:08:06ALI MENTIONED, WHEN WE HAVE MORE

1:08:08HOUSING UNITS THROUGH DENSITY,

1:08:10THROUGH CREATIVE HOUSING TYPES,

1:08:13THAT DRIVES PRICES DOWN.

1:08:15IT DOES.

1:08:16I SIMPLY CAN'T -- AND I AM A

1:08:18HOMEOWNER, BUT I DON'T RELATE TO

1:08:20PEOPLE TONIGHT AND PEOPLE WHO

1:08:23HAVE COMMENTED TO YOU THAT JUST

1:08:26DON'T SEEM TO WANT THINGS TO

1:08:29CHANGE.

1:08:29I'LL TELL YOU HOW THINGS ARE

1:08:31CHANGING.

1:08:32THE LEADERSHIP OF NIMBY TAMPA

1:08:34HAS LEFT THE CITY.

1:08:35YOUNG PEOPLE WHO WANT TO SEE A

1:08:38POSITIVE IMPROVEMENT IN THIS

1:08:40CITY HAVE LEFT BECAUSE OF A LACK

1:08:44OF HOUSING AFFORDABILITY.

1:08:47TATIANA, NATHAN.

1:08:47THESE PEOPLE HAVE LEFT.

1:08:49IF I'M HERE IN 10 OR 20 YEARS, I

1:08:51WILL THINK ABOUT THIS PLAN

1:08:53UPDATE AND WHATEVER CHANGES YOU

1:08:55GUYS ARE GOING TO MAKE AND I'M

1:08:57GOING TO WISH WE CREATED MORE

1:08:59DENSITY IN OUR CITY.

1:09:05I SUPPORT THE BY RIGHT DENSITY.

1:09:07I SUPPORT THE TRANSIT READY

1:09:10CORRIDORS, AND I SUPPORT OUR

1:09:12PLANNING COMMISSION.

1:09:13I HOPE THAT YOU VOTE TO PASS

1:09:14THIS PLAN AS IS.

1:09:15THANK YOU.

1:09:16>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU VERY

1:09:17MUCH.

1:09:19NEXT SPEAKER.

1:09:19PLEASE START WITH YOUR NAME.

1:09:21YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES.

1:09:23>> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.

1:09:25SIMONE SAVINO BROWN, 2900 WEST

1:09:28NICHOLAS STREET, TAMPA, FLORIDA,

1:09:3233629.

1:09:35I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND EVERYONE

1:09:37OR HAVE EVERYONE KEEP IN MIND

1:09:38THAT TONIGHT IS JUST THE FIRST

1:09:41STEP IN THIS PROCESS BECAUSE

1:09:43MOST OF THE BONUSES ARE GOING TO

1:09:45HAVE TO GO THE FURTHER STEP AND

1:09:47BE IMPLEMENTED INTO THE LAND

1:09:49DEVELOPMENT CODE AFTER TONIGHT.

1:09:51SO THIS FIRST ADOPTION IS JUST

1:09:53SIMPLY SETTING THE TABLE FOR

1:09:55THAT, SO IT CAN HAPPEN.

1:09:58IT'S TAKEN YEARS AND SO MUCH

1:09:59EFFORT FOR US TO GET HERE, BUT

1:10:01WE HAVEN'T EVEN SET THE TABLE

1:10:04FOR THE REAL PROBLEM, WHICH IS

1:10:06THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.

1:10:07AS A RESIDENT OF THE CITY OF

1:10:10TAMPA AND AS A LAND USE ATTORNEY

1:10:11HERE IN THE CITY OF TAMPA, WE

1:10:12WANT THE PEOPLE THAT ARE

1:10:14BUILDING THINGS, INCLUDING OUR

1:10:16CLIENTS, TO BE INCENTIVIZED OF

1:10:17THE RIGHT THING FOR THE RIGHT

1:10:22REASONS, WHICH IS WHAT THE

1:10:23BONUSES ARE ALL ABOUT, FRANKLY.

1:10:26AND WE APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT

1:10:27THE CITY IS TRYING TO

1:10:30INCENTIVIZE AFFORDABLE HOUSING

1:10:31AND GREEN BUILDING TECHNOLOGY

1:10:32AND RESILIENCY.

1:10:33THANK YOU.

1:10:36>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU VERY

1:10:37MUCH.

1:10:37NEXT SPEAKER, IF THERE'S ANYONE

1:10:39ELSE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK, IF YOU

1:10:40WOULDN'T MIND STANDING UP.

1:10:41THANK YOU SO MUCH.

1:10:42GO AHEAD, START WITH YOUR NAME.

1:10:45>> EDWARD BRIGGS WITH B AND B

1:10:47CAPITAL STRATEGIES ON BEHALF OF

1:10:49DOMAIN HOMES.

1:10:50WEST FIELDER STREET, TAMPA.

1:10:51I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU ALL FOR

1:10:52THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK

1:10:54TONIGHT.

1:10:54I WANT TO START BY SAYING THANK

1:10:55YOU SO MUCH TO THE HARD WORK.

1:10:58MELISSA ZORNITTA AND HER

1:10:59PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.

1:11:01I KNOW THEY SPENT ALMOST FOUR

1:11:03YEARS I THINK FROM WHEN THIS

1:11:05STARTED.

1:11:05THIS WAS A LONG PROCESS THAT

1:11:07WENT THROUGH.

1:11:07THEY HELD COUNTLESS COMMUNITY

1:11:09MEETINGS, LISTENED TO A LOT OF

1:11:11STAKEHOLDERS, WORKED TIRELESSLY

1:11:12WITH THE STATE AS WELL ON THIS

1:11:13PROCESS TO GET TO WHERE WE ARE

1:11:16HERE TONIGHT.

1:11:16I CAN'T ALSO SAY THAT WITHOUT

1:11:18SAYING THANK YOU TO THE CITY

1:11:19STAFF AS WELL FOR EVERYTHING

1:11:21THEY DID.

1:11:22DOMAIN HOMES, WE WANT TO SAY

1:11:23THIS, IS THIS PLAN PERFECT?

1:11:24ABSOLUTELY NOT.

1:11:25ARE THERE THINGS THAT WE DON'T

1:11:26LIKE IN IT?

1:11:28ABSOLUTELY.

1:11:28BUT ARE THERE THINGS THAT WE DO?

1:11:30ABSOLUTELY TOO.

1:11:31I THINK YOU CAN HEAR IT TONIGHT

1:11:32FROM THE OTHER SPEAKERS, TOO.

1:11:33NOT EVERYONE IS HAPPY, BUT THERE

1:11:34ARE GOOD THINGS.

1:11:35I WILL TELL YOU SOMETHING, ONE

1:11:37OF THOSE THINGS, WHENEVER YOU

1:11:39HAVE THAT, THAT'S HOW YOU KNOW

1:11:41YOU HAVE A FAIR COMPROMISE.

1:11:42WHEN EVERYONE IS HURTING A

1:11:43LITTLE BIT AND NOT ONE GROUP IS

1:11:45COMPLETELY HAPPY, THAT'S HOW YOU

1:11:46KNOW YOU HAVE A GOOD PRODUCT

1:11:47HERE BEFORE YOU.

1:11:49ON BEHALF OF DOMAIN HOMES, WE

1:11:51ASK YOU TO SUPPORT THE ADOPTION

1:11:52HERE TONIGHT.

1:11:53WE THANK YOU FOR THE TIME AND

1:11:56THANK YOU SO MUCH TO THE STAFF

1:11:58FOR ALL THE TIME PUT INTO THIS.

1:12:00>>LYNN HURTAK: NEXT SPEAKER.

1:12:01PLEASE START WITH YOUR NAME.

1:12:02YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES.

1:12:04>> THANK YOU.

1:12:05JAKE CREMER WITH BARBAS CREMER.

1:12:11I'VE BEEN KIND OF SITTING IN THE

1:12:12BACK REWRITING MY COMMENTS AFTER

1:12:14HEARING SOME OF YOUR COMMENTS

1:12:15AND SOME OF THE DISCUSSION

1:12:17EARLIER.

1:12:17I WANT TO ECHO WHAT EDWARD SAID,

1:12:20IS THAT WE'VE SPENT FOUR YEARS

1:12:21AND A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM

1:12:23HAVE SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON WHAT

1:12:26WENT TO THE STATE.

1:12:28AND WHAT I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT

1:12:30MY DEVELOPER AND LANDOWNER

1:12:32CLIENTS, THEY DIDN'T LOVE WHAT

1:12:34GOT TRANSMITTED TO THE STATE.

1:12:37I REALIZED THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE

1:12:38IN THE COMMUNITY DIDN'T EITHER.

1:12:40BUT WE ALL WORKED TOGETHER

1:12:42REALLY, REALLY HARD, AND THIS

1:12:44BONUS STRUCTURE AND THE DENSITY

1:12:45STRUCTURE THAT WE'RE TALKING

1:12:47ABOUT TONIGHT, THAT'S NO

1:12:49SURPRISE TO EVERYONE.

1:12:51THAT HAS BEEN IN THE PLAN FOR

1:12:52MONTHS AND MONTHS AND MONTHS.

1:13:01I THINK IT IS DISINGENUOUS FOR

1:13:06ANYONE TO SAY THEY WERE

1:13:06SURPRISED BY THIS BONUS

1:13:07STRUCTURE BEING PROPOSED.

1:13:08WHAT I CAN TELL YOU IS IT

1:13:10INCREASES TRANSPARENCY.

1:13:11RIGHT NOW, THE COMP PLAN HAS A

1:13:16STRUCTURE WHERE WE'RE ALL

1:13:17FRUSTRATED.

1:13:18EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM, BECAUSE

1:13:19IT DOESN'T GIVE YOU ALL

1:13:21GUIDELINES FOR MAKING YOUR

1:13:22DECISIONS.

1:13:23AND THAT'S THE PROBLEM WITH THE

1:13:24PLAN THAT WE HAVE TO FIX.

1:13:26IT'S PITTING NEIGHBOR AGAINST

1:13:28NEIGHBOR, AND IT'S NOT FAIR.

1:13:29IT'S NOT FAIR TO YOU ALL.

1:13:31IT'S NOT FAIR TO MY CLIENTS, NOT

1:13:33FAIR TO THE COMMUNITY THAT SHOWS

1:13:35UP SAYING HOW DO YOU MAKE YOUR

1:13:37DECISIONS?

1:13:37GIVE US SOME GUIDELINES.

1:13:38WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS PLAN THAT

1:13:39WAS TRANSMITTED TO THE STATE IS

1:13:42IT HAS VERY CLEAR GUIDELINES FOR

1:13:44WHAT IT TAKES TO GET TO EACH

1:13:47TIER OF DENSITY.

1:13:52IT EMPHASIZES AND BONUSES WHAT I

1:13:54HEARD YOU ALL SAY FOR YEARS WHAT

1:13:55YOU WANT.

1:13:56COUNCILMAN MIRANDA, THERE IS A

1:13:57GREEN BUILDING BONUS AS YOU

1:13:59PROBABLY KNOW IN THE CITY CODE

1:14:00TODAY.

1:14:00IT DOESN'T WORK.

1:14:01NOBODY EVER USES IT BECAUSE IT'S

1:14:03NOT BALANCED IN THE RIGHT WAY.

1:14:05THE CURRENT PLAN I BELIEVE DOES.

1:14:08IT DOES.

1:14:08I HAVE CLIENTS THAT CALLED ME

1:14:10THIS WEEK SAYING GET THIS PLAN

1:14:12APPROVED.

1:14:13I HAVE GREEN BUILDING PROJECTS

1:14:15I'D LIKE TO BRING TO THE CITY.

1:14:17THE SAME THING FOR THE

1:14:18AFFORDABLE HOUSING BONUS IN THE

1:14:20-- CURRENTLY, AFFORDABLE

1:14:21HOUSING, THE BONUS STRUCTURE

1:14:22DOESN'T WORK.

1:14:24WE SPENT TWO YEARS ON ROBLES

1:14:25PARK GOING THROUGH GETTING COMP

1:14:27PLAN AMENDMENTS, AND THAT

1:14:28PROJECT WAS DELAYED TWO YEARS

1:14:30THROUGH THAT PROCESS.

1:14:32THIS CURRENT PLAN WOULD HAVE

1:14:33SOLVED THAT.

1:14:34IT WOULD HAVE SAVED EVERYONE TWO

1:14:36YEARS OF BRINGING THAT

1:14:37AFFORDABLE HOUSING TO MARKET.

1:14:38SO WITH THAT, I RESPECTFULLY ASK

1:14:40THAT YOU APPROVE THE PLAN AS IT

1:14:41WAS RECOMMENDED BY THE STATE.

1:14:43THANK YOU.

1:14:44>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.

1:14:44I DON'T THINK WE'RE LOOKING AT

1:14:46CHANGING ANY OF THE BONUS, JUST

1:14:47TO LET YOU KNOW.

1:14:50OKAY.

1:14:51NEXT.

1:14:54>> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL.

1:14:56MY NAME IS MATT SIENK.

1:14:57I AM HERE TODAY IN PERSONAL

1:14:59CAPACITY, NOT AS A PLANNING

1:15:00COMMISSIONER.

1:15:01I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT'S

1:15:03CRYSTAL CLEAR.

1:15:03I'LL START AND SAY THE PLANNING

1:15:05COMMISSION STAFF HAS DONE AN

1:15:07AMAZING JOB TRYING TO WORK

1:15:07THROUGH THIS FOR SO, SO LONG.

1:15:11I THINK THE OVERARCHING -- MY

1:15:13TAKEAWAY ON IT IS THAT WE DON'T

1:15:16NECESSARILY HAVE A DENSITY ISSUE

1:15:18WITH THIS.

1:15:18WE HAVE A ZONING ISSUE ON TOP OF

1:15:21IT.

1:15:22IF WE GET THE DENSITY BUT OUR

1:15:23ZONING IS BRINGING THE WRONG

1:15:26PRODUCT IN THAT LOCATION, THAT'S

1:15:27WHERE WE GET PEOPLE COMPLAINING

1:15:29ABOUT PARKING, ALL THE PEOPLE

1:15:32FEELING LIKE THEY ARE SQUISHED

1:15:33TOGETHER.

1:15:33I THINK THERE IS AN ABILITY FOR

1:15:34US TO LOOK AT OUR DENSITY AND

1:15:36THEN ALSO LOOK AT OUR ZONING,

1:15:38WHICH IS GOING TO BE COMING UP

1:15:40RELATIVELY SOON TO SAY, OKAY,

1:15:41HERE, WE WANT TO PUT PEOPLE IN

1:15:43THESE LOCATIONS.

1:15:44WE DON'T WANT TO PUT PEOPLE IN

1:15:45COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREAS

1:15:46BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT'S NOT SAFE.

1:15:48TONS OF NEIGHBORHOODS LIKE TAMPA

1:15:51HEIGHTS OR WEST TAMPA LOOKING

1:15:52FOR THE DENSITY BECAUSE THEY

1:15:54WANT TO PUSH PUBLIC

1:15:56TRANSPORTATION, AFFORDABILITY,

1:15:57AND GET THE NEIGHBORHOOD

1:15:58REDEVELOPED THE WAY IT SHOULD

1:15:59BE.

1:16:00AND BY THROWING EVERYTHING OUT,

1:16:01I THINK THAT WE'RE DOING A

1:16:03DISSERVICE TO OUR CONSTITUENTS

1:16:06AND OUR NEIGHBORS BY SAYING,

1:16:07OKAY, WE DON'T WANT DENSITY

1:16:09BECAUSE WE DO WANT DENSITY IN A

1:16:10LOT OF LOCATIONS BUT A WE HAVE A

1:16:11PROBLEM THAT THERE IS A MISMATCH

1:16:13IN WHAT WE CAN ACTUALLY BUILD

1:16:14AND HOW THAT WORKS.

1:16:16BIG EXAMPLE OF IT IS DUPLEXES IN

1:16:19TAMPA HEIGHTS.

1:16:19THEY HAVE BEEN HISTORICALLY

1:16:20THERE FOREVER.

1:16:21YOU CAN'T BUILD THEM ANYMORE

1:16:23BECAUSE IT IS R-10 AND YOU NEED

1:16:26R-20 TO HAVE A SIDE-BY-SIDE

1:16:29DUPLEX.

1:16:29THAT'S CRAZY.

1:16:30OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS FULL OF

1:16:33DUPLEXES, TRIPLEXES, QUADPLEXES.

1:16:34IF THEY GET DAMAGED BY A STORM

1:16:35WE'LL BE LOSING UNITS IN THIS

1:16:37EXACT NEIGHBORHOOD.

1:16:37I THINK THERE IS A MIDDLE GROUND

1:16:39TO BE FOUND.

1:16:40I DON'T THINK IT'S BEEN FOUND

1:16:42YET.

1:16:43I ALSO BELIEVE TRANSIT READY

1:16:44CORRIDORS ARE CRITICAL TO

1:16:46BUILDING OUR FUTURE IN A PLACE

1:16:47WHERE WE DON'T RELY ON CARS AND

1:16:48CAN ACTUALLY MOVE PEOPLE AROUND.

1:16:50NO BIG CITY -- I MEAN, EVERY BIG

1:16:53CITY HAS PARKING ISSUES BUT WE

1:16:54NEED TO FIND WAYS TO ELIMINATE

1:16:56THAT.

1:16:56I THINK THAT INCREASING DENSITY

1:16:58IN THE RIGHT SPACES AND GIVING

1:17:00BONUSES TO THINGS LIKE GREEN

1:17:02CONSTRUCTION, AFFORDABLE HOUSING

1:17:03IS THE WAY TO DO IT.

1:17:04I THINK THE BONUS STRUCTURE IS

1:17:05FANTASTIC.

1:17:06I WANT TO GIVE PROPS TO THE

1:17:07PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.

1:17:08THEY DO AN AMAZING JOB EVERY

1:17:10DAY.

1:17:10TO YOU GUYS FOR UNDERSTANDING

1:17:11WHAT THE COMPLICATIONS ARE AND

1:17:12ALL THE WRINKLES THAT WE HAD TO

1:17:14GET THROUGH TO BUILD THE CITY

1:17:15THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR.

1:17:16THANK YOU.

1:17:16HAVE A GOOD NIGHT.

1:17:17>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.

1:17:19IF NO ONE ELSE IS SPEAKING,

1:17:22STEPHANIE WILL BE OUR LAST

1:17:23IN-PERSON SPEAKER.

1:17:25ANYONE ELSE?

1:17:28OKAY.

1:17:32>>MARTIN SHELBY: MS. POYNOR HAS

1:17:34ONE NAME.

1:17:35CRAIG LYNN.

1:17:36>> YES.

1:17:36>>MARTIN SHELBY: THANK YOU.

1:17:37THAT'S FOUR MINUTES.

1:17:38>>ALAN CLENDENIN: START WITH

1:17:40YOUR NAME.

1:17:40>> STEPHANIE POYNOR.

1:17:41I WANT TO POINT OUT, THIS IS NOT

1:17:43A LAST-MINUTE, WHERE WE JUST

1:17:45CAME UP WITH THIS YESTERDAY.

1:17:47THIS CHART, I'M SURE YOU SAW ME

1:17:49THIS MORNING, I WAS ORGANIZING

1:17:50MY BINDER.

1:17:51AND THIS CHART IS OLD.

1:17:53IT'S REALLY OLD.

1:17:55IT'S AT LEAST A COUPLE OF YEARS

1:17:58OLD.

1:17:59EVEN CARROLL ANN MADE NOTES ON

1:18:00IT FOR ME.

1:18:02SO WE WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT

1:18:04THIS BEFORE LAST MAY.

1:18:05THIS IS NOT A NEW THING.

1:18:06THIS IS NOT A SURPRISE.

1:18:08IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE

1:18:09SAID OVER AND OVER AND OVER

1:18:11AGAIN.

1:18:11AND IT HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THE

1:18:12FEW THINGS THAT KIND OF SLID ON

1:18:15THROUGH THAT WE WEREN'T REALLY

1:18:16HAPPY ABOUT.

1:18:17SEVEN YEARS AGO NEXT MONTH, I

1:18:20DARKENED THE DOORSTEP OF THIS

1:18:23PLACE.

1:18:23IT'S FUNNY -- WERE DISCOURAGED

1:18:27FROM ATTEMPTING AN OVERLAY FOR

1:18:29OUR COMMUNITY.

1:18:29WE WERE DISCOURAGED.

1:18:31SAID IT WOULD TAKE TOO LONG.

1:18:32NOW WE LOOK AT IT, MAN, WE

1:18:34SHOULD HAVE DONE IT, BUT WE

1:18:36DIDN'T KNOW ANY BETTER.

1:18:38I DETEST THIS SECTION RIGHT

1:18:40HERE.

1:18:40IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN IN

1:18:42THERE.

1:18:42WE ASKED FOR IT TO BE REMOVED

1:18:44OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

1:18:45I WOULD ARGUE THAT THE

1:18:46DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE PROBABLY

1:18:47WOULD HAVE LET IT FLY HAD THEY

1:18:49NOT PUT IN THAT DATE.

1:18:52I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME

1:18:56UNDERSTAND OR COMPREHEND HOW

1:18:56THAT IS GOING TO BE THE BIGGEST

1:18:59PART OF THE CHHA.

1:19:00WE'VE HAD MAJOR FLOODING IN THAT

1:19:03PART, IN MANY, MANY PARTS OF THE

1:19:05CHHA.

1:19:05AND OUTSIDE OF THE CHHA IN THAT

1:19:09LITTLE SPACE THAT'S LEFT, I

1:19:11CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME

1:19:12IMAGINE THAT THE CHHA IS NOT

1:19:13GOING TO EXPAND THE NEXT TIME

1:19:15THEY DO IT.

1:19:16IT'S PROBABLY ABOUT TIME.

1:19:21I'M SO SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE

1:19:23SAYING, IF WE BUILD THE DENSITY,

1:19:25THE TRANSIT WILL COME.

1:19:26THEY HAVE DOUBLED THE DENSITY IN

1:19:29MY AREA OF TOWN.

1:19:31DOUBLED IT.

1:19:31TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE LIVE THERE

1:19:33NOW AS LIVED THERE THE LAST TIME

1:19:35WE DID THE COMP PLAN.

1:19:36DO WE HAVE A BUS?

1:19:38NO.

1:19:39HELL, NO, WE DON'T HAVE A BUS.

1:19:41THAT ONE BUS ROUTE RUNS DOWN

1:19:44THERE ONCE AN HOUR, I THINK NOW.

1:19:46AND IT DOESN'T EVEN HIT

1:19:49WESTSHORE.

1:19:50IT DOESN'T HIT DALE MABRY.

1:19:51IT GOES DOWN MANHATTAN.

1:19:53SO IT'S USELESS.

1:19:56SENATE BILL 180 SAYS THAT WE

1:19:58CAN'T MAKE IT MORE BURDENSOME.

1:20:01THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO THESE

1:20:06FLUs IS GIVING IT AWAY.

1:20:10WE'RE GOING THE POLAR OPPOSITE.

1:20:11JUST LEAVE IT ALONE.

1:20:12MY BIG THING IS, JUST LEAVE IT

1:20:14ALONE.

1:20:14WE DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE

1:20:15ANYTHING.

1:20:15WE CAN JUST LEAVE IT ALONE.

1:20:17YOU KNOW WHAT?

1:20:18IF IN A YEAR YOU WANT TO CHANGE

1:20:20IT, YOU SEE, YOU KNOW, THE

1:20:22TRANSIT CORRIDORS A PERFECT

1:20:24EXAMPLE.

1:20:24YOU ADDED SOME IN.

1:20:25IF YOU SEE THAT THEY ARE DOING

1:20:27WHAT YOU PROJECT AND WHAT THE

1:20:30PLANNING COMMISSION PROJECTS

1:20:32SHOULD HAPPEN WITH THIS CHANGE

1:20:35THEN YOU CAN ADD MORE.

1:20:36YOU CAN CHANGE THE WAY THINGS

1:20:38HAPPEN, BUT IT DOESN'T NEED TO

1:20:39HAPPEN TODAY.

1:20:40JUST LIKE CARROLL ANN SHOWED

1:20:42YOU, WE'RE NOT -- WE'RE LOSING

1:20:453,000 UNITS IN THE CHHA, AND

1:20:49GAINING 60.

1:20:50IT'S ALL GOOD.

1:20:52I COMPLETELY ENDORSE THAT WE FIX

1:20:55A LOT OF THE HOUSING ISSUES IN

1:20:56THE CITY, BUT TELL ME WHY MY

1:21:00FRIEND JAMIE AND HIS WIFE TOLD

1:21:01ME THE OTHER DAY, DO YOU HAVE

1:21:04ANY BUYERS BECAUSE WE CAN'T SELL

1:21:05HOUSES.

1:21:05THIS IS A BUYERS' MARKET.

1:21:09PEOPLE CAN BUY HOUSES BELOW

1:21:11MARKET PRICE RIGHT NOW.

1:21:16HE.RENTALS.

1:21:17THAT'S WHAT I DO FOR A LIVING.

1:21:19RENTAL PRICES ARE GOING DOWN

1:21:21SIGNIFICANTLY.

1:21:21HOUSES THAT WOULD RENT FOR

1:21:23$6,000 A MONTH ARE NOT PULLING

1:21:27FOUR NOW.

1:21:27PEOPLE CANNOT PAY THEIR MORTGAGE

1:21:29WITH THE RENTAL PRICE THAT THEY

1:21:31ARE ABLE TO GET.

1:21:32I HAVE TWO DIFFERENT LANDLORDS

1:21:34PAYING LIKE $600 A MONTH OUT OF

1:21:36THEIR POCKET TOWARDS THEIR

1:21:38MORTGAGE.

1:21:38DON'T LET PEOPLE BLOW SMOKE UP

1:21:41YOUR BUTT.

1:21:41>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU VERY

1:21:42MUCH.

1:21:42WE HAVE ONE ONLINE SPEAKER.

1:21:44IS THAT PERSON ONLINE?

1:21:50MICHAEL MURINO.

1:21:50IF YOU CAN TURN YOUR CAMERA ON.

1:21:55JUST UNMUTE YOURSELF.

1:21:56THERE YOU ARE.

1:21:59CAN YOU START WITH YOUR NAME?

1:22:00YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES.

1:22:01>> THANK YOU.

1:22:03MICHAEL MURINO, EXECUTIVE

1:22:04DIRECTOR OF WESTSHORE ALLIANCE.

1:22:05SORRY I CANNOT BE THERE THIS

1:22:06EVENING.

1:22:07WE PROVIDED A LETTER IN SUPPORT

1:22:11AND WE'VE BEEN IN SUPPORT OF

1:22:12THIS QUITE A WHILE.

1:22:13WE STARTED OUR CONVERSATION WITH

1:22:14YOU ALL AND CITY STAFF AND

1:22:16PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF GOING

1:22:17BACK TO 2020 WHEN THERE WERE

1:22:20FIRST CONCERNS ABOUT PROVIDING

1:22:23ADDITIONAL DENSITY IN MIXED USE

1:22:24CORRIDORS.

1:22:26THE FUTURE LAND USE SECTION PLAN

1:22:28AS PROVIDED TO YOU, WE'RE IN

1:22:29SUPPORT OF BECAUSE THE FACT IT

1:22:31CREATES THE WESTSHORE CULTURAL

1:22:33DEVELOPMENT AREA, AND THAT WILL

1:22:36ALLOW WESTSHORE TO REDEVELOP,

1:22:37BUT THEN THE EXISTING -- ZONING

1:22:40HAS THE NATURAL LIMITS BECAUSE

1:22:41OF HEIGHT AND USE AND DENSITY IN

1:22:44WESTSHORE.

1:22:47THERE'S KIND OF THAT NATURAL

1:22:48IMPACT THERE.

1:22:50I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THE

1:22:50DEVELOPMENT THAT OCCURS IN

1:22:52WESTSHORE BECAUSE OF THE

1:22:53PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE

1:22:54WESTSHORE ALLIANCE AND THE CITY

1:22:55OF TAMPA AS IT RELATES TO THE

1:22:58WESTSHORE DRI GOING BACK YEARS

1:22:59AGO CREATES BENEFITS WITHIN THE

1:23:01NEIGHBORHOOD.

1:23:02THERE IS THE WESTSHORE OVERLAY

1:23:04THAT REQUIRES SIDEWALKS TO BE A

1:23:05CERTAIN WIDTH AND TREES, THINGS

1:23:06LIKE THAT.

1:23:08WESTSHORE PARKS TRUST FUND.

1:23:09MOBILITY TRUST FUND.

1:23:09AND THOSE ARE DEPLOYED IN THE

1:23:12NEIGHBORHOOD.

1:23:12THERE IS A RENOVATION AT LINCOLN

1:23:15GARDEN PARK OVER THE LAST 12

1:23:17MONTHS.

1:23:17I THINK THAT OVERALL, THE PLAN

1:23:19THAT'S BEEN PROVIDED TO YOU

1:23:20OBVIOUSLY WE'RE IN SUPPORT OF

1:23:23IT, BUT I THINK THERE ARE

1:23:24EXAMPLES OF HOW SOME OF THE

1:23:25TOOLS WE ALREADY HAVE IN THE

1:23:27COMMUNITY CAN BE LEVERAGED SO

1:23:28WHILE WE ALLOW DEVELOPMENT TO

1:23:30OCCUR IN PLACES WHERE IT IS

1:23:32DESIRABLE, THAT THE FOLKS WHO

1:23:33HAVE LIVED THERE IN THE CASE OF

1:23:35WESTSHORE GOING BACK A HUNDRED

1:23:36YEARS TO 1927, THAT THOSE

1:23:39SINGLE-FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS CAN

1:23:41EXPERIENCE BENEFIT FROM THAT

1:23:43ADDITIONAL GROWTH GOING FORWARD

1:23:44THROUGH THE USE OF MOBILITY FEES

1:23:46AND PARKS TRUST FUND AND THINGS

1:23:48OF THAT NATURE.

1:23:49WE APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT AND

1:23:50YOUR TIME, BOTH YOU AS COUNCIL

1:23:51MEMBERS AND THE CITY STAFF AND

1:23:52PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.

1:23:54>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU.

1:23:56THAT CONCLUDES OUR PUBLIC

1:23:59COMMENT.

1:24:02>> IF IT WOULD BE PERMITTED, WE

1:24:03DO HAVE A FEW THINGS THAT WE

1:24:05WANTED TO RESPOND TO.

1:24:07>>LYNN HURTAK: GREAT.

1:24:08>> FIRST, WE DID HEAR A NUMBER

1:24:10-- AND I WILL JUST SAY FOR THE

1:24:14RECORD, MELISSA DICKENS,

1:24:15PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF.

1:24:16RESPONDING TO THE FOLKS WHO HAD

1:24:17CONCERNS ABOUT WHAT WAS

1:24:19PROPOSED, NOT THE FOLKS WHO WERE

1:24:20IN SUPPORT OF IT.

1:24:22THERE WERE A NUMBER OF COMMENTS

1:24:23ABOUT THE BASE DENSITIES

1:24:27CHANGING, CHANGING THEM BACK TO

1:24:29WHAT IS ADOPTED IN THE PLAN

1:24:30TODAY.

1:24:31THAT IS WHAT IS BEFORE YOU WITH

1:24:33THIS ALTERNATIVE.

1:24:34SO JUST WANTED TO REITERATE THAT

1:24:36IF THE ALTERNATIVE IS PUT

1:24:38FORWARD TONIGHT BY A MOTION,

1:24:40THEN THAT WOULD SOLVE THAT

1:24:43ISSUE.

1:24:43SECONDLY, THERE WAS SOMEONE WHO

1:24:44SPOKE ABOUT THE STADIUM.

1:24:45THAT IS A MAP AMENDMENT, NOT A

1:24:47TEXT AMENDMENT.

1:24:47IT IS NOT THE SUBJECT OF THIS

1:24:50EVENING'S DISCUSSION.

1:24:50THAT IS 26-11A, B, AND C.

1:24:54WE ALSO UNDERSTAND A COUPLE OF

1:24:55FOLKS REFERENCED AN ARTICLE

1:24:57ABOUT HOUSING.

1:24:58WE DID TAKE A LOOK AT THAT

1:24:59ARTICLE, AND THERE ARE SOME

1:25:02CONCERNS.

1:25:02THERE'S NOT AN APPLES-TO-APPLES

1:25:05COMPARISON.

1:25:05ZILLOW, FOR EXAMPLE, IS

1:25:07ANECDOTAL.

1:25:08IT'S NOT STATISTICALLY

1:25:10REPRESENTATIVE AND THERE ARE A

1:25:10NUMBER OF ISSUES WITH THE DATA

1:25:12USED IN THE ARTICLE.

1:25:14FINALLY, THE CHHA DATE, THE

1:25:16REASON THAT DATE WAS INCLUDED IS

1:25:17WE CANNOT HAVE A SELF-AMENDING

1:25:19PLAN.

1:25:20WE HAVE TO HAVE IT AS OF A

1:25:21CERTAIN DATE.

1:25:22THE ALTERNATIVE THAT WAS PUT

1:25:23BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING IS

1:25:25SELECTED, IT WOULD JUST BE THE

1:25:27BONUSES THAT WOULD BE SUBJECT TO

1:25:28THAT.

1:25:28SO WE THINK THAT THAT WOULD

1:25:30RESOLVE THAT ISSUE AS WELL.

1:25:33>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU SO

1:25:35MUCH.

1:25:36>>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, MA'AM,

1:25:37GO AHEAD.

1:25:39>>LYNN HURTAK: I'M GOING TO GO

1:25:40AHEAD AND MAKE A COUPLE OF

1:25:41MOTIONS.

1:25:42I MOVE TO REMOVE THE ARMENIA

1:25:44AVENUE FROM KENNEDY BOULEVARD TO

1:25:47COLUMBUS AVENUE.

1:25:48>>ALAN CLENDENIN: SECOND.

1:25:48>>LYNN HURTAK: -- FROM THE LIST

1:25:50OF TRANSIT READY CORRIDORS AND

1:25:51REMOVE IT FROM BOTH THE TEXT TO

1:25:56POLICY 2.6.4 AND THE PLACE TYPE

1:25:58MAPS.

1:25:59>>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A

1:26:01MOTION FROM CHAIR PRO TEM

1:26:02HURTAK, SECOND FROM CHAIR

1:26:04CLENDENIN.

1:26:05I'M GLAD THAT YOU BROUGHT THAT

1:26:09UP.

1:26:09WE'RE WEST TAMPA GUYS OVER HERE.

1:26:11AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS

1:26:12A HISTORIC DISTRICT IN WEST

1:26:15TAMPA.

1:26:15PEOPLE THINK IT'S HOWARD AVENUE,

1:26:16MAIN STREET, ALL THAT AREA, BUT

1:26:18LOOKING AT COLUMBUS TO KENNEDY,

1:26:21IT'S THE HEART OF WEST TAMPA

1:26:22RIGHT THERE AND IT GOES INTO

1:26:23ARMORY GARDENS.

1:26:25YES, THERE HAS BEEN DEVELOPMENT,

1:26:27BUT WE WANT TO KEEP TAMPA,

1:26:28TAMPA.

1:26:28WE DON'T WANT OVERDEVELOPMENT

1:26:30WHERE IT JUST BECOMES

1:26:32UNRECOGNIZABLE AND I TOTALLY

1:26:34SUPPORT YOUR MOTION.

1:26:34WE HAVE A MOTION FROM HURTAK,

1:26:37SECOND FROM CLENDENIN.

1:26:40COUNCILMAN VIERA.

1:26:45>>LUIS VIERA: THANK YOU.

1:26:46PART OF MY VOICE.

1:26:48I'M -- PARDON MY VOICE.

1:26:49I'M GLAD TO SUPPORT THIS.

1:26:51LIKE COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK SAID,

1:26:52IT DOESN'T GO TO ANY OF THE

1:26:53BONUS PROVISIONS ON THE LARGER

1:26:56SCALE.

1:26:57THIS IS SOMETHING THAT DOES

1:26:59TAKE, MS. SANCHEZ AND OTHERS,

1:27:02MS. BENNETT SPOKE I BELIEVE A

1:27:03LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT AS WELL, THE

1:27:04WEST TAMPA CORRIDOR.

1:27:06THAT DOES NEED SOME PROTECTIONS.

1:27:08I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING

1:27:10NARROWLY TAILORED IN TERMS OF

1:27:12GEOGRAPHY AS WELL AS IN SUBJECT.

1:27:13IT IS A UNIQUE THING.

1:27:15I'M GLAD TO SUPPORT.

1:27:16>>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU

1:27:16VERY MUCH.

1:27:17COUNCIL MEMBER CARLSON.

1:27:18>>BILL CARLSON: I WANT TO SAY AS

1:27:19I MENTIONED EARLIER, TRANSIT

1:27:21READY CORRIDORS IS A MISNOMER.

1:27:24THE DEVELOPMENT INDUSTRY HAS

1:27:26BEEN PUSHING FOR THESE FOR

1:27:27YEARS.

1:27:27IT'S REALLY A DEVELOPMENT

1:27:29CORRIDOR, NOT A TRANSIT

1:27:31CORRIDOR.

1:27:31BY VOTING TO REMOVE ANY TRANSIT

1:27:32READY CORRIDORS, WE'RE NOT

1:27:34REMOVING TRANSIT.

1:27:35WE'RE JUST REMOVING

1:27:40UNCONTROLLABLE GROWTH.

1:27:41CHAIR CLENDENIN MENTIONED A

1:27:44WHILE AGO MIDTOWN.

1:27:46MIDTOWN IS A TRANSIT NODE.

1:27:48IT IS A PLACE WHERE THERE IS

1:27:50DENSITY.

1:27:51WHAT PEOPLE DON'T WANT IS

1:27:52DENSITY LIKE MIDTOWN ALL THE WAY

1:27:55DOWN DALE MABRY ALL THE WAY TO

1:27:59MacDILL.

1:27:59THEY WANT POCKETS OF IT.

1:28:00IF WE DO IT A BIT AT A TIME,

1:28:03WE'LL GET MORE BUY-IN FROM THE

1:28:05PUBLIC AND BE ABLE TO BUILD THE

1:28:06NODES AND THE COMMUNITY WILL

1:28:08GROW ORGANICALLY.

1:28:08THIS IS JUST -- I DON'T WANT ANY

1:28:10OF THE TRANSIT READY CORRIDORS.

1:28:12IT DOESN'T MEAN I'M AGAINST

1:28:13TRANSIT.

1:28:13IT IS THE OPPOSITE.

1:28:15I'M AGAINST UNCONTROLLED GROWTH.

1:28:16THANK YOU.

1:28:17>>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN

1:28:18MIRANDA.

1:28:19>>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU,

1:28:19MR. MANISCALCO.

1:28:19IN FACT, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE

1:28:21PLANNING COMMISSION STATEMENT ON

1:28:23PAGE 69, IS YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE

1:28:28FROM 2020 TO 2045 ABOUT 625,000

1:28:31NEEDED DWELLINGS IN THE CITY OF

1:28:32TAMPA BY YOUR OWN RECORDS.

1:28:35SO WITHOUT ANYTHING ELSE, I

1:28:37MEAN, WEST TAMPA RIGHT NOW,

1:28:39WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, MAY

1:28:40HAPPEN.

1:28:41I'M NOT GOING TO MENTION WHAT IT

1:28:43IS, BUT YOU CAN'T GET OUT OF

1:28:47WEST TAMPA ANYWHERE FROM --

1:28:49REALLY FROM KENNEDY ALL THE WAY

1:28:52DOWN TO ALMOST HILLSBOROUGH

1:28:54AVENUE WHEN THERE'S AN EVENT IN

1:28:55A CERTAIN AREA.

1:28:56AT LEAST AN HOUR AND A HALF

1:28:58BEFORE AND HOUR AND A HALF

1:28:59LATER.

1:28:59AND IF YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING TO

1:29:00GET OUT BY GOING TO ARMENIA AND

1:29:02MAKING A LEFT OR MAKING A RIGHT,

1:29:05YOU'RE WRONG, BECAUSE MOST

1:29:07TRAFFIC HEADING SOUTH TRAVELS

1:29:08ALL THE WAY TO MAIN STREET, ONE

1:29:11STREET PAST MAIN STREET IS

1:29:12GREEN, YOU MAKE A RIGHT.

1:29:13AND GET THE EXPRESSWAY TO GO

1:29:15EITHER TO SARASOTA, BRADENTON,

1:29:17CLEARWATER, PLANT CITY -- NOT

1:29:19PLANT CITY, ST. PETERSBURG, OR

1:29:21WHEREVER THEY CAME FROM.

1:29:22YOU HAVE AN EXODUS.

1:29:24I GUARANTEE YOU I'M ASKING FOR

1:29:26YOU GUYS TO ASK THE POLICE

1:29:28DEPARTMENT HOW MANY ACCIDENTS

1:29:28HAPPEN DURING THOSE EVENTS.

1:29:31I'LL GUARANTEE YOU THEY WILL

1:29:32DOUBLE AND TRIPLE ANY TIME OF

1:29:34ANY DAY OF ANY YEAR BECAUSE THEY

1:29:36JUST WANT TO GET OUT.

1:29:36AND THAT'S A PROBLEM WE HAVE.

1:29:39NOW I HEAR THERE ARE SOME ROADS

1:29:41THAT WILL BE WIDENED.

1:29:42IT WILL ONLY EXACERBATE THE

1:29:44PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE NOW.

1:29:46HOUSING IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE

1:29:49IN WEST TAMPA BECAUSE IT'S GOING

1:29:51TO BE A BUMPER TO BUMPER, YOU'RE

1:29:53NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO MOVE AND

1:29:58-- VERY PEOPLE LIVE THERE.

1:29:59EVEN WITH THE TRAFFIC NOW,

1:30:01WITHOUT THE FUTURE, IT'S

1:30:04GODSEND.

1:30:05PEOPLE LOVE EACH OTHER.

1:30:06LIVE CLOSE BY.

1:30:07SPEAK TO YOUR NEIGHBORS.

1:30:08YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU WANT

1:30:10NEARBY.

1:30:11SHOPPING, AIRPORT, HOSPITAL,

1:30:13ANYTHING YOU NEED.

1:30:14THAT WILL NOT CONTINUE.

1:33:42CHAMBERS, 315 EAST KENNEDY

1:33:43BOULEVARD, THIRD FLOOR, TAMPA,

1:33:46FLORIDA, 33602.

1:33:46>>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU SO

1:33:47MUCH.

1:33:47ITEM NUMBER 4.

1:33:55>> GOOD EVENING.

1:33:57KATRINA CORCORAN PLANNING

1:33:58COMMISSION STAFF.

1:33:59I'M HERE TONIGHT TO PRESENT

1:34:02TA/CPA 24-05.

1:34:02THIS IS THE HOUSING SECTION

1:34:03UPDATE.

1:34:06YOU ALL HEARD A LOT TONIGHT

1:34:09ABOUT THE UPDATE APPROACH WITH

1:34:10THE ENTIRE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

1:34:11I WON'T GO INTO TOO MUCH DETAIL

1:34:12WITH THAT.

1:34:13I WANT TO POINT OUT WITH OUR

1:34:14HOUSING SECTION THAT THIS SERVES

1:34:15AS A TOOL TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY

1:34:17HOUSING NEEDS.

1:34:18IT SERVES AS A FOUNDATION FOR

1:34:19THE CITY'S PROGRAMS FOR HOUSING

1:34:23IMPLEMENTATION.

1:34:23I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO NOTE THAT

1:34:25THERE ARE NO COMMENTS RECEIVED

1:34:26FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

1:34:27AND OTHER REVIEWING REGIONAL AND

1:34:29STATE AGENCIES AFTER

1:34:31TRANSMITTAL.

1:34:32WITH SB 180 WE HAD NO CONCERNS

1:34:34WITH THE HOUSING SECTION.

1:34:35WE THOUGHT THERE HAD BEEN NO

1:34:36CHANGES TO THE DRAFT SINCE

1:34:38COUNCIL LAST SAW IT IN FEBRUARY

1:34:39WITH ONE MINOR EXCEPTION, DID

1:34:41REMOVE THE DEFINITIONS THAT WERE

1:34:42TRAVELING WITH THE AMENDMENT

1:34:43BECAUSE THOSE HAVE ALREADY BEEN

1:34:44ADOPTED WITH A PREVIOUS

1:34:47AMENDMENT.

1:34:49JUST A BRIEF REMINDER ON THE

1:34:51STRUCTURE OF THE HOUSING

1:34:52SECTION.

1:34:52THERE IS ONE PROPOSED GOAL WITH

1:34:54FIVE PROPOSED OBJECTIVES,

1:34:56INCLUDING AFFORDABILITY,

1:34:57STABILITY, RESILIENCY AND

1:34:59SUSTAINABILITY.

1:35:00HOUSING AND HEALTHY COMMUNITIES.

1:35:02I REMEMBER GETTING A QUESTION

1:35:03ABOUT THIS BEFORE, MAKING SURE

1:35:04THAT HOUSING IS CLOSE TO

1:35:06SERVICES, VERY GENERAL ABOUT THE

1:35:07DESIGN OF HOUSING, THINGS LIKE

1:35:08THAT.

1:35:10HOUSING SUPPLY AND HOUSING

1:35:11ACCESS.

1:35:16AND WITH THAT, THE PLANNING

1:35:17COMMISSION FOUND THE AMENDMENT

1:35:18CONSISTENT, AND WE RECOMMEND

1:35:20THAT TA/CPA 24-05 BE ADOPTED BY

1:35:22TAMPA CITY COUNCIL.

1:35:23THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

1:35:25I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS

1:35:25YOU HAVE ON THIS AMENDMENT.

1:35:27THANK YOU.

1:35:27>>LYNN HURTAK: ANY QUESTIONS?

1:35:30COUNCILMAN MIRANDA.

1:35:30>>CHARLIE MIRANDA: NO, I'M

1:35:31SORRY.

1:35:32>>LYNN HURTAK: IS THERE ANYONE

1:35:32IN THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO

1:35:33SPEAK TO THIS ITEM TONIGHT?

1:35:37OKAY.

1:35:40WOULD SOMEONE -- OH.

1:35:52>> GOOD EVENING, AGAIN.

1:35:53MY NAME IS SANDY SANCHEZ.

1:35:55WE'VE SPENT A LOT OF TIME,

1:35:57MONEY, AND ENERGY ON THIS COMP

1:35:59PLAN.

1:35:59THREE YEARS AGO, I WAS INVITED

1:36:03TO PARTICIPATE IN A FOCUS GROUP.

1:36:05I WENT TO ABOUT FIVE OR SIX

1:36:07MEETINGS AND THEN I QUIT.

1:36:09I QUIT BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT

1:36:11LISTENING TO WHAT WE HAD TO SAY.

1:36:14INTERESTING ENOUGH, ONCE THEY

1:36:16STARTED THEIR PUBLIC MEETINGS,

1:36:17THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE SAME

1:36:20CONCERNS THAT THEIR FOCUS GROUP

1:36:22HAD WERE ALSO THE CONCERNS OF

1:36:24THE PUBLIC.

1:36:25FROM THE VERY BEGINNING TO JUST

1:36:28THIS PAST MAY, WE SUGGESTED THAT

1:36:30A HOUSING REPORT WAS NEEDED TO

1:36:32MOVE FORWARD, AND WE WERE TOLD

1:36:34THERE WASN'T ONE AVAILABLE.

1:36:35THAT IS NOT TRUE.

1:36:39JC HUDGISON SENDS A REPORT TO

1:36:40WASHINGTON, D.C. MONTHLY SHOWING

1:36:41THE NUMBER OF PERMITS THAT HAVE

1:36:42BEEN ISSUED AND HOW MANY UNITS

1:36:44ARE IN EACH PERMIT.

1:36:46THE REALTOR'S ASSOCIATION CAN

1:36:47LET YOU KNOW ABOUT THE SALES OF

1:36:51HOMES.

1:36:51AND THERE IS ALSO A GROUP THAT

1:36:52YOU CAN GET INFORMATION ON

1:36:56RENTAL PROPERTIES, ESPECIALLY

1:36:58THE MULTIFAMILIES.

1:36:59RIGHT NOW FROM THE LAST REPORT

1:37:00WHEN I TALKED TO HIM, A LOT OF

1:37:04OUR BIG APARTMENT COMPLEX, 20 TO

1:37:0725% EMPTY.

1:37:09BOTH CARROLL ANN AND I SENT YOU

1:37:10ARTICLES FROM THE FLORIDA

1:37:11CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND THE

1:37:14TAMPA MONITOR SHOWING THAT FOLKS

1:37:14ARE NOT MOVING TO FLORIDA UNDER

1:37:17ITS PRESENT POLITICAL CLIMATE

1:37:18AND THE HIGH EXPENSE OF LIVING

1:37:20IN FLORIDA.

1:37:20THIS COMP PLAN IS ALREADY

1:37:23OBSOLETE.

1:37:24I FEEL SORRY FOR THOSE FOLKS

1:37:26THAT HAVE CONSTRUCTION IN

1:37:28PROCESS.

1:37:28MAYBE WE'LL BE LUCKY ENOUGH THAT

1:37:30SOME OF THOSE DEVELOPERS WILL

1:37:32SELL IT TO US FOR AFFORDABLE

1:37:35HOUSING.

1:37:35IT IS NOTHING TO BE PROUD OF

1:37:37AND, QUITE HONESTLY, A LITTLE

1:37:39SCARY FOR FUTURE ECONOMIC

1:37:41DEVELOPMENT, BUT IT IS A

1:37:41REALITY.

1:37:42WE CAN HAVE IT ALL, BUT WE NEED

1:37:45AN UNBIASED REPORT TO DELVE INTO

1:37:47THE MAKEUP OF THESE URBAN

1:37:49VILLAGES THAT ALREADY HAVE

1:37:50EVERYTHING THAT THEY NEED.

1:37:52THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE SHOULD NOT

1:37:53BE THREATENED.

1:37:55REMEMBER, HOMEOWNERS ARE

1:37:57TAXPAYERS.

1:37:58ASK THAT YOU DIRECT OUR CITY AND

1:37:59COUNTY PLANNERS TO DO THEIR HOME

1:38:01WORK BEFORE THEY BEGIN ANOTHER

1:38:03COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

1:38:04LET'S NOT WASTE TIME AND MONEY

1:38:06AGAIN.

1:38:06LET'S TAKE A SERIOUS LOOK AT OUR

1:38:09FRAGILE INFRASTRUCTURE ISSUES IN

1:38:11THESE NEXT FEW YEARS.

1:38:14THESE NEXT FEW YEARS SHOULD BE

1:38:15USED TO STUDY THE DIFFERENT

1:38:16NEIGHBORHOODS AND SEE WHAT NEEDS

1:38:19TO CHANGE IF ANYTHING, A CLOSER

1:38:21LOOK NEEDS TO BE TAKEN AT

1:38:23HERITAGE COMMUNITIES.

1:38:24WE NEED TO START TREATING THEM

1:38:25AS ASSETS AND NOT A LIABILITY.

1:38:29BY THE WAY, WEST TAMPA HAS 5,147

1:38:31HOMES THAT ARE HOMESTEADED AND

1:38:34ADDITIONAL 8,193 THAT ARE NOT,

1:38:41FOR 13,340.
