FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED 2051 U.S. HIGHWAY ONE.

THIS IS PART OF THE OLD KMART PLAZA.

FOR FUTURE USE ARE THE PROPERTIES GC GENERAL COMMERCIAL. WITH HIS ZONING OF C3 GENERAL COMMERCIAL. I LIKE TO MAKE A NOTE ON THE STAFF REPORT WE ARE REQUESTING 31 MACHINES THE APPLICANT NOTED AN ERROR IN THE PARKING. AND THEY KNEW I WAS ROOTING FOR RUDY THREE MACHINES THAT THEY ARE REQUESTING.

THE ARCADES ARE CONDITIONAL USES IN A ZONING DISTRICT.

IT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT CODE AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. IN THE PLANNING BOARD VOTED SEVEN TO 0 TO RECOMMEND THE REQUEST AS PRESENTED.

THE SITE PLAN PROVIDES 477 PARKING SPACES.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 31 MACHINES AND 33 PROCEEDINGS IS ONLY DEFICIT WITH TWO PARKING SPACES.

SO THIS PLAZA HAS PLENTY OF PARKING TO ACCOMMODATE THIS AND PLANT OTHER TENANTS. THEY ARE ALSO TOASTING ALLOW TOOL BICYCLE RACKS AND THE ARCADE AMUSEMENT IT CAN BE US USED -- THEY CAN BE LOCATED IN UNIT AND BE 2,000 SQUARE FEET.

THIS IS JUST A FLOORPLAN TO SHOW YOU OF THE SETUP OF THE OPERATION. THE PLANNING BOARD MET ON FEBRUARY 9 ON 2021 VOTED 7-0 TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL TO COMMERCIAL USE AS PRESENTED. 213 LETTERS WERE SENT TO PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN 500 FEET. I DID IT WOULD HAVE ONE PHONE CONVERSATION WITH THE LADY WHO NOTED THAT SHE DIDN'T NECESSARILY WANT THE ARCADE AND AMUSEMENT CENTER BE LOCATED NEAR HER RESIDENCE. THERE IS ONE LADY THAT ALSO E-MAILED ONE OF THOSE CONCERNS AS WELL.

STAFF IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL SUBJECT TO DUE CONDITIONS.

ONE SUBMIT A PHOTOMETRIC SURVEY TO THE DEMONSTRATES COMPLIANCE LIGHTING CODE. THIS SHALL BE SUBMITTED TO THE ASSURANCE OF A BUSINESS TAX RECEIPT.

NUMBER TWO, SUBMIT A LANDSCAPE PLAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH CODE THAT DEMONSTRATES COMPLIANCE WITH THE CITY LANDSCAPE CODE.

THIS SHALL ALL BE COMPLETED BEFORE THE BUSINESS TAX RECEIPT.

POSSIBLE ACTIONS BY THE CITY COMMISSIONER AND PLANNING BOARD ALSO RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. YOU CAN APPROVE WITH ALTERNATE CONDITIONS WE CAN DISPROVE. I AM AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS

THAT YOU MAY HAVE. >> ANY QUESTIONS COMMISSIONER

BROWN? >> INTERESTING, LANDSCAPE PLAN, YOUR ONE LITTLE ITTY-BITTY UNIT IN A LARGE MASSIVE OPERATION.

HOW WOULD THEY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WHOLE LOT?

>> ACCORDING TO OUR CAPE CODE IT DOESN'T DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL UNITS AND SHOP CLASSES SO THEY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A COMPLIANT LANDSCAPE PLAN BEFORE THE ASSURANCE OF A BUSINESS TAX RECEIPT. THE APPLICANT MY UNDERSTANDING IS UPDATING THE LANDSCAPING FOR THE WHOLE ENTIRE SECTION OF THE

PLAZA. >> WHILE.

>> GOOD. >> HAS THANK YOU.

>> QUESTION WHAT OTHER NEIGHBORING BUSINESS TAX THAT?

>> I WILL PUT IT UP ON THE SCREEN FOR YOU.

SO I KNOW THERE IS A LITTLE CAESARS PIZZA, I THINK THERE IS A TAX OFFICE AND THERE IS A FEW OTHER OFFICE TYPE BUSINESSES IN THE PLAZA AS WELL. WHILE WATER RESULTS WILL BE LOCATED IN THIS PLAZA I BELIEVE THEY ARE GOING TO START CONSTRUCTION AROUND MAY. THERE IS ALSO A BURGER KING ABUTTING THE SITE AND SEACOAST NATIONAL BANK USED TO BE IN THIS PLAZA. AND IF BELIEVE IT IS NOW VACANT.

AND THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER ARCADE THAT YOU WILL HEAR TONIGHT THAT

IS ALSO GOING TO BE. >> I WAS SPECIFICALLY REFERRING

TO SIX AND EIGHT. >> THIS IS A VACANT BUILDING NUMBER EIGHT. AND THERE IS A MEN'S BAGS PLACED

IN UNIT NUMBER SIX. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR STAFF? ALL RIGHT I WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING AND I WILL OPEN THE

APPLICANT FIRST. >> GOOD EVENING MADAME MAYOR MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION. IT IS GOOD TO BE HERE.

I WANT TO WALK TO A COUPLE OF THINGS MY NAME IS TAUB MOWRY WITH RED TAIL FOR THE RECORD. RIGHT HERE IN DOWNTOWN FORT PIERCE AND GATEWAY PLAZA. AT THE GALLERIA BUILDING.

I WANTED TO TOUCH ON A COUPLE OF THINGS.

THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A CENTER THAT YOU AS A COMMISSION AND IS A CITY HAVE LOOKED AT FOR A LONG TIME.

[00:20:01]

JUST TO KIND OF BRING YOU BACK UP TO SPEED ESPECIALLY FOR OUR NEWEST COMMISSIONER WELCOME ABOARD COMMISSIONER JEWISH JOHNSON. IT CAME UP PLAZA OVER THE YEARS WE SEE IN LOSS OF THE WINN-DIXIE WITHIN THE LOSS OF THE KMART WE SAW THE LOSS OF DUKE'S LOUNGE. WE SAW PLENTY THINGS AT WORK WENT ON BY THE WAYSIDE TO PLAZA. DESPITE ALL THAT IS HAPPENED THE OWNER OF THE PLASTER WENT FOR IT.

THEY SPENT $400,000 IN A NEW TRAFFIC SINGLE.

THEY CLOSED OFF THREE OF THE ENTRANCES OFFERED U.S. ONE.

AGAIN AT NO COST WITH NO NEW REVENUE COMING INTO THEM.

THEY PAID ALL THAT MONEY ON THEIR OWN.

WE SAW THE EDITION OF THE DONATION THAT WAS 20 FEET WIDE BY A HUNDRED AND 50 FEET LONG TO CREATE A NEW RIGHT TURN LANE ONTO VIRGINIA. I KNOW THE CITY MANAGED TO MOVE FORWARD I'M HEARING TO GET THE PNC BANK PROPERTY.

WHICH THAT IS A SEPARATE PARCEL WHICH THE CENTER DOES NOT OWN.

THEY DO NOT OWN THREE OF THOSE. THEY DON'T PNC, THEY DON'T OWN THE PAYLESS SHOE STORE SITE AND THEY DON'T OWN THE BURGER KING.

THOSE ARE THREE SEPARATE OUT PARCELS THAT THEY DO NOT OWN.

THEY DO OWN SEACOAST BANK THOUGH THEY DO ON THAT.

SINCE THEN WE SEEN THE EDITION OF SEACOAST BANK.

WE HAVE SEEN THAT THEY PROVIDE US SHELTER THAT IS IN YOU WHICH ONE. AND MOST RECENTLY THEY ALSO HAVE THE APPROVAL OF THE WAWA THAT IS GOING ON.

THE PLANTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN GOING IN AND THEY ARE SET TO START CONSTRUCTION HOPEFULLY WILL BEGIN TO SEE ACTIVITY AROUND ME SO THAT WILL BE EXCITING THAT IT IS BETWEEN THE PNC AND THE FORMER PAYLESS. A LOT OF INTERNAL THINGS ARE HAPPENING WITH THE PLAZA. IN THE SHOPPING CENTER.

THERE ARE PRINCIPLE IS ACTUALLY HERE THIS EVENING.

SO IF YOU HAD OTHER QUESTIONS YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SPECIFICALLY ASK HIM ABOUT IT. BECAUSE HE HAS TWO SIGNIFICANT ANNOUNCEMENT THEY HOPE TO MAKE IN THE NEAR FUTURE THAT WILL TAKE PLACE THAT WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE ACTUAL KMART BUILDING.

THAT'S BIG EXCITEMENT. THAT'S AN 88,000 SQUARE FOOT PIECE OF THE ENTIRE PLAZA. THAT PARTICULAR THEY WILL ANNOUNCE A PLAN FOR 40,000 SQUARE FEET OF THAT CENTER.

SO THAT'S A GOOD SIZE AND AT CENTER THAT WILL BE TAKING UP.

IT IS EXCITING IN OTHER COMMUNITIES WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT. I GIVE KUDOS TO YOUR CITY MANAGER IN FACT LITERALLY CHRISTMAS EVE, WE HAD DISCUSSIONS. I DON'T KID YOU CHRISTMAS EVE AT 530 AT NIGHT TALKING ABOUT ON HOW TO GET AN URBAN TARGET HERE.

WHICH WE WEREN'T ABLE TO DO. SO I DON'T WANT TO MISLEAD YOU.

HE WAS ON CHRISTMAS EVE WORKING THESE CALLS.

SO THAT WAS QUITE AN IMPRESSIVE FEAT.

BESIDE THAT, HERE ARE A COUPLE THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED.

A NEW ROOF WAS RECENTLY INSTALLED.

THE KMART BUILDING FOR $1.1 MILLION.

YOU LOOK AT WE JUST RESCINDED SOME PATCHING AROUND THE CENTER.

AT SOME BAD ISSUES THERE. THEY SPENT $85,000 ON THAT.

NEW LIGHTING FOR ABOUT 25,000. THEY RECENTLY DID A ENTIRE PAINT JOB ON THE FRONT. $35,000 FOR THAT.

AND THEY'RE JUST SO MANY DIFFERENT IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE BEING DONE. IT IS A SIDE.

BUT YET NO NEW REVENUE. SOON THOUGH.

IT WOULD BE NICE WITH THE WALLABIES COMING ON BOARD.

THIS IS A SMALL PIECE. AND I'M SORRY TO HAVE GIVEN YOU ALL THAT. BUT HE FELT IT WAS IMPORTANT.

THE COMMISSION DID MENTION THE FACT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE LANDSCAPING. IT IS A BIG FEAT TO ASK TO TRY TO GO AROUND THE CENTER. I DO WANT TO MISLEAD ANYBODY.

BUT WE ARE DOING THE ISLANDS SO ALL THE ISLANDS ARE BEING UPGRADED. WITH NEW LANDSCAPE TREES.

IF THEY ARE NOT AVAILABLE NOW THEY WILL BE BEING INSTALLED.

AS WELL AS MAKING SURE THAT ALL OF THE CURBING AROUND THOSE ARE BEING REPAIRED. HE IS GOING THROUGH AND SEALCOATING EVERYTHING NORTH OF THE KMART.

EVERYTHING SOUTH OF THE KMART WILL BE PART OF THIS BIG NEW CLASS THAT I WAS GOING SO THAT WILL BE DONE WITH RETRAINED EDGED THAT DOESN'T HAVE ANY LANDSCAPE VIOLENCE.

THAT WILL BE INSTALLED. AS FAR AS IMPROVEMENT CENTER.

WITH THAT PARTICULAR AREA. THE ACTUAL LIGHTS THEMSELVES, THEY DID THEIR OLDER HALOGEN LIGHTS.

THEY ARE ALL BEING PLACED IN WE HAVE A CONTRACTOR LOOKING AT THAT. SO WE ARE EXCITED TO MOVE THAT FORWARD. BUT ALL THE LIGHTS AS WELL WILL BE REPAIRED OR COMPLETELY REPLACED WITH THE NEW HEADS THAT ARE BEING DISCUSSED AT THIS POINT.

WE ALSO WILL HAVE A NEW IRRIGATION PUMP THAT WAS NOT AN IRRIGATION PUMP BEFORE FOR ALL THOSE FRONT ISLANDS.

IT WAS HARD TO PLANT BUT WE DIDN'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE IRRIGATION. SO ALL THE IRRIGATION LINES ARE IN PLACE THAT I ISLANDS THERE IS A NEW SIGN OUT FRONT THAT IS SOUTH OF THE BURGER KING THAT IS COMPLETELY BEING REDONE.

BEAUTIFUL PLANTS. WE WERE GOING TO TAKE JENNIFER OUT AND SHOW HEARD THE PLANS FOR THAT.

THERE WILL BE AN ACTUAL WIDE IN BED.

[00:25:02]

SO THAT WILL BE NICE. SO THERE IS ONLY A LITTLE SMALL LANDSCAPE STRIP. SO EVERYTHING FROM PAYLESS UP IN THE BURGER KING MALL WILL BE A NICE WIDE LANDSCAPE BED.

AS A PART OF THE THINGS GOING ON.

SO WITH THAT BEING SAID WE ARE ALSO EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE ONE OF THE BAYS IT'S AMAZING, A CENTER THIS LARGE 200,000 SQUARE FEET WE ARE DOING WITH THE 200,000 SQUARE-FOOT DISCUSSION TODAY.

BUT APPRECIATE YOUR PATIENCE. THIS IS EXCITING FOR AN EXCITING TENET. THEIR HAIR AS WELL AS EVENING.

SO THEY HAVE A 2,000 SQUARE-FOOT SPACE IS MENTIONED.

THIRTY-THREE MACHINES AND IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS I CAN ANSWER I BE GRANTED ANSWER THOSE. STEPH'S BEEN GREAT TO WORK AS WELL. WE APPRECIATE YOUR PATIENCE ON THE CENTER. THIS IS ONE WHERE THEY WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THIS A STRONG ECONOMIC ENGINE FOR THE CITY.

BUT AS YOU KNOW WHEN YOU START DOING THOSE CONCENTRIC CIRCLES AND USE THAT LOOKING AT RETAILERS AND WHERE THEY WANT TO GO. WE ALSO WOULD'VE BEAT HER HEAD AGAINST THE WALL AND WE DO THAT IN A MANNER NOT TO CREATE SELF PAIN BUT AS A WAY TO CREATE THE RIGHT LOOK IN THE RIGHT REVENUE FOR OUR COMMUNITY TO BRING THE RIGHT JOBS AS WELL AS THE RIGHT TYPES OF BUSINESSES INASMUCH AS WE STRUGGLE WITH THAT I FEEL LIKE WE ARE STARTING TO TURN. A PATIENT WAS PROSPERITY AND I THINK WE'RE GETTING THERE AT THIS POINT.

THERE IS ALSO BEEN THE RECENT EDITION OF THE PANEL.

SO THE PANEL IS NOW LOCATED IN THEIR AND THAT HAS BEEN SET UP AS WELL WORKING WITH STAFF IS NO CHARGE TO THEM.

SO THEY ARE THERE IS A PRO BONO GIFT.

SO I DON'T KNOW HOW THE CENTER THE CENTER CONTINUES TO MAKE THIS ABILITY TO BE SO BEEN ELEVATED.

BUT THEY BELIEVE IN THE COMMUNITY.

THEY HAVE BEEN SHOPPING CENTERS FOR MANY, MANY YEARS.

THEY ARE ACTUALLY THE LARGEST OWNER INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY IN NEW JERSEY. SO THAT IS HELP THEIR ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT THINGS FROM COMMUNITY.

I KNOW THEY AIR BATTLES HAVE BEEN ONE THAT WE ARE NOW TALKING ABOUT SUCCESSES. SO WE LOOK FORWARD TO THAT IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS I LIKE TO INCIDENTS.

>> ANY QUESTIONS COMMISSIONER PERRONE?

>> THANK YOU FOR THAT. THIS COMMISSION AND ARE PART OF OUR STRATEGIC PLAN IS REALLY LOOKING AT THE GATEWAY SINCE YOU BOUGHT THE TURBO. AND THIS IS A GATEWAY TO FORT PIERCE. REGARDLESS THE CONCENTRIC CIRCLES TO GO OUT. BUT IF THAT GATEWAY DECIDED TO GO AHEAD AND FULFILL AN OBLIGATION AS A GOOD BUSINESS PARTNER INSTEAD OF HAVING THE FAÇADE FALLOFF, IT LOOKED TERRIBLE FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.

I'M NOT GOING TO GO IN THE PAST WITH THAT.

BUT I'M GOING TO SAY THAT, THIS IS IMPORTANT TO US TO BEING THIS FORWARD. THE GATEWAY TO COMING TO FORT PIERCE IS THAT TURN RIGHT THERE. SO I THINK IF THEY PUT THE MONEY INTO THE THAT DEVELOPMENT. IF THEY DO WITH THE RIGHT WAY.

THEY WOULD ENCOURAGE THOSE CIRCLES AND THOSE BUSINESS CIRCLES. WHERE RETAILERS WANT TO BE, THEY WILL WANT TO CLOSE TO WHERE THERE WAS.

AND I REALLY THINK THAT IS IMPORTANT FOR US TO DO THIS.

YOU HAVE A LOT OF LITTLE INDIVIDUAL THINGS GOING ON.

YOU GOING TO BE BACK IN FRONT OF US AND FOR SOME OTHER CONDITIONAL USES OVER TIME. AND WE'RE GOING TO HOLD YOU AND YOUR CLIENT TO THAT. AS TO MAKING SURE THAT GATEWAY MEETS AND FITS THE EXPECTATIONS THAT WE HAVE FROM THE CITY FORT

PIERCE. >> THANK YOU COMMISSIONER.

WE ACTUALLY TAKE AN AGGRESSIVE APPROACH WITH A FULL ARCHITECTURAL PLANS AS WELL. TOO NOT JUST CREATE THE VISION LOCALLY WE HAVE TO PHYSICALLY COME CREATE A FULL PLAN WITH ARCHITECTURAL RELATIONS AND RENDERINGS.

MARKED AT AT ICS SEE. WE WORKED WITH EXTENSIVELY ON THINGS. AS MUCH AS WE WOULD ALL LIKE TO THINK THE VISION IS GOING TO DRAW HER.

IT IS ABOUT ECONOMICS AND ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS.

I KNOW NICK AND I HAVE GOT TO THIS MANY TIMES.

UNTIL WE ACTUALLY HAVE WHERE THEY HAVE THE PER CAPITA INCOME AND THEY LOOK AT THE EDUCATIONAL LEVEL THE TRAFFIC COUNT IS ONE THING, IT'S LIKE AS WE HAVE THE TRAFFIC TO LOOK AT THE VALUE OF THE HOMES IN THE AREA. THEY DRAW THOSE CIRCLES.

NO MATTER HOW MANY THINGS WE TRY TO PRESENT PAGE.

THEY KNOW WHERE THEY WANT TO BE IF THEY ARE GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSES. PEOPLE CAN LOVE OUR COMMUNITY BUT IT IS ABOUT MONEY. IT IS ABOUT ECONOMICS.

AND AS MUCH AS WE TRY TO PUSH IN THE RIGHT WAY WE HAD THAT STRUGGLE POINT. WHERE THERE IS ONLY GOING TO BE SO FAR THOSE NICE NAME ENTITIES THAT WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU AND WHAT WE DO TO GET THEM TO CALL.

IT IS BEEN A STRUGGLE. THIS CENTER HAVING THE ONLY SIGNAL ALONE. THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN THE IMPETUS.

WHEN YOU PUT IN A $400,000 SIGNAL.

PUBLIX DOES NOT HAVE THAT. BUT WE HAVE THAT THE GATEWAY.

AND YET WE STILL WEREN'T ABLE TO GET WHAT WE THOUGHT WOULD HAPPEN. WE ALMOST HAD MARKETPLACE.

WE THOUGHT IT WAS THERE. AND EVEN WALMART SAID THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. AND THAT WAS A TOUGH LOSS.

BECAUSE WE WERE THIS CLOSE. THE AMOUNT OF MONEY BEING SPENT ON LOOKING AT ALL PLANS FOR THAT AND THEN HAVE THAT GO BY THE WAYSIDE WE FELT LIKE ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS WHERE.

[00:30:04]

AND THAT BIT OF TIME. THE NUMBER THINGS WE TRIED.

>> WE GET ALL THE PIECES OF THE PUZZLE COMING TOGETHER.

WAWA IS GOING IN. SO YOU JUST MENTION WAWA.

THERE ARE SOME MOVEMENTS THAT ARE HAPPENING.

THAT'S HOW WE DO THINGS. WE STARTED WITH A CHECK TO I WAWA. PETE TISCH STOOD EXACTLY WHERE YOU WERE IN THE LAST MEETING. AND SAID WE ARE RUNNING ON A PROPERTY THAT WE CAN SELL. CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT? THESE ARE THE TIMES. SO WE HAVE HIGHER EXPECTATIONS.

AND WE KNOW YOUR ABILITIES AND WE EXPECT THAT.

>> I APPRECIATE THAT. >> JUST A COUPLE COMMENTS ESPECIALLY ECONOMIC COMMENTS. THAT'S MOST IMPORTANT PART.

AS BUSINESSES LOOK TO COME TO AREAS THEY LOOK AT THE DEMOGRAPHIC. AND THAT IS BEEN A HARD THING TO GET THE COMMUNITY TO UNDERSTAND. THEY WANT CERTAIN THINGS.

WHEN IT COMES OUT TO A BUSINESS DECISION I APPRECIATE THE EFFORTS THEY ARE. TO HIGHLIGHT THAT, AND I AM GOING TO CONTINUE TO CHALLENGE YOU TO FIND THOSE BUSINESSES.

IT IS ONLY A SHORT DISTANCE WHERE WE HAVE A GREAT ECONOMIC IMPACT IN THOSE PEOPLE HAVE SHOWN TO TRAVEL TO THIS AREA.

FOR THOSE TYPES OF SERVICES AND AMENITIES.

SO I WOULD CERTAINLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO NOT GIVE UP ON FORT PIERCE WHEN IT COMES TO THAT. AND MORE IMPORTANTLY MARKET THAT TO A LITTLE BIT NORTH AND SOUTH FOR THOSE BUSINESSES TO RELOCATE. A COUPLE TECHNICAL QUESTIONS.

YOU MENTIONED THAT THE ISLANDS ARE REDOING APPROXIMATE HOW MANY ISLANDS ARE THERE? I HAVE LOST TRACK IS BEEN A LONG TIME. THE BLIGHT HAS BLINDED ME TOO WHAT IS THERE? KINDA HELP ME UNDERSTAND THAT BECAUSE I DIDN'T SEE A SITE PLAN REALLY.

>> DEPLANED THAT YOU SEE IN PLACE HERE GIVES AN IDEA FOR WHAT WE HAVE. SO THOSE WHAT WE HAVE ARE CALLED TERMINAL ISLANDS. SO AT THE END OF DRIVE US TO HAVE TERMINAL ISLANDS. THOSE IN THE MIDDLE WE CALL INTERIOR ISLANDS. THERE IS A COMBINATION OF TERMINAL IN A TEARY ISLANDS. MOST OF THE CHANGES YOU SEE WILL BE WITH THE TERMINAL ISLANDS GOING IN.

WE ALSO HAVE EXISTENT LIGHTING POLES THAT ARE IN PLACE AND THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT ARE GENERALLY IN THE ISLANDS.

LAST WE KNEW WE DIDN'T THINK WE HAD ANY IRRIGATION PRESENT.

THE MORSE COMPANIES WHEN THEY PICKED UP THE SHOPPING PLAZA, THEY PICKED IT UP IN THE STATE THAT IS IN.

AS WE KNEW IT AS. IT IS BEEN THERE FOR BEING REVIVED AND TRYING TO BRING TO LIGHT.

THEY TOOK OFF THE ENTIRE FAÇADE OF THE KMART, AND THEY BEEN PATCHING IT AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS IS INVOLVED TO TRY TO MAKE THAT IS ALL SET. THEY MOVED REMOVED ALL THE ASBESTOS OUT OF THE BUILDING. THAT WAS ABOUT A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS TO REMOVE THAT ASBESTOS.

IT WAS FLOORING TILE FOR THE MOST PART.

SO THEY HAD TO HIRE A COMPANY AND DO ALL THAT.

SO IT HAS BEEN A TREMENDOUS COST TO THESE FOLKS.

WITH NOTHING NEW COMING IN EFFECT.

WHEN KMART WAS THERE, AS WE MUCH AS WE HATE TO LOSE THE TENNANT.

THEY WERE PAYING UNDER $3 A SQUARE FOOT EVEN A COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE. SO WAS COSTING THE CLIENT MONEY TO KEEP KMART THERE. FOR ANYTHING THAT WAS GOING ON.

SO IT WAS JUST A SAD STATE. BUT YOU ARE RIGHT WE ARE AT THAT POINT WERE TO GO FORWARD AND WE SEE SOME GOOD THINGS HAPPEN.

I DON'T HAVE THE SPECIFIC NUMBER.

BUT THE SIGN WORK AND ALL THAT, IS HAPPENING AS WE SPEAK.

BUILDING PERMITS HAVE ALREADY BEEN OBTAINED FOR THAT ACTIVITY.

SO IS BEEN NICE TO SEE THOSE THINGS COMING TOGETHER.

AND YOUR STAFF IS DONE A GREAT JOB.

>> BUT IT WILL BE SENTENCED SIMILAR TO WHAT I'M SEEING ON

THIS PICTURE. >> YES IT WILL.

AT THE END OF IT EVERY DRIVE FILE YOU WILL SEE THOSE ISLANDS IMPROVED AND CURBING WILL HAVE A SEAL COAT THROUGHOUT THE PLAZA NORTH OF TEMA. AND THEN YOU WILL SEE NEW

SPLINTS KEEP PUT INTO PLACE. >> A COUPLE QUESTIONS IF I COULD. I APPRECIATE IT SIR THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE. VERY EXCITED ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING. IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, IN THIS PLAZA, THERE WAS ANGLE PARKING IN ONE WAY DRIVE AISLES.

ON THIS PLANET SHOWS A 90-DEGREE PARKING SITUATION IS THAT GOING TO GO INTO PLAY HERE? BASED ON WHAT IT USED TO BE.

>> GREAT COMMISSION YOUR GREAT QUESTION.

WHAT YOU SEE IS A OVERALL GOAL IS TO TURN INTO SOMETHING INTO THE TYPICAL PERPENDICULAR AT 90-DEGREE SPACE.

BUT, TODAY IS STILL AT THE ANGLE.

SO WE DO STILL HAVE SINGLING AISLES AND SOME ARE DUAL BY DIRECTIONAL MOVEMENT AISLES. ESPECIALLY NOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH KMART THAT IS GOING TO WIN THE INITIAL PHASE.

ONCE WE GO OUT AND RIP OUT ALL THE ASPHALT AND REDO ALL OF THE DRAINAGE. THE EDC ENGINEERING IS GOING THROUGH ALL THAT DRAIN'S PROCESS.

AND MAKING SURE EVERYTHING IS UP TO SNUFF.

AS WELL AS ALL THE PERMITS IN PLACE.

[00:35:02]

>> THE REASON WHY I'M ASKING THAT SPECIFIC QUESTION.

I LIKE THIS, THIS IS GOOD DESIGN AND GOOD LAYOUT.

BASED ON WHAT YOU ANTICIPATE. I KNOW THIS IS ONE ITEM WHERE STALL NUMBER SEVEN IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT.

2,000. IN YOUR BROAD SCOPE IN LOOKING AT CITY CODE AND LOOKING AT WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH THIS PLAZA.

DO YOU ANTICIPATE THAT THE NUMBER PARKING STALLS IS GOING TO BE ADEQUATE FOR WHAT YOU HAVE PROPOSED IF WHAT YOU ARE DREAMING OF COMING IN TO THE PLAZA?

>> I THINK THIS IS INTERESTING, AS A WHOLE, CITIES ACROSS THE NATION ARE STARTING TO LOOK AT PARKING IN A NEW LIGHT.

THERE ARE SO MANY PLACES WERE TALK TO INDIVIDUAL ASPECTS.

IT REQUIRES X NUMBER SPACES. WILL BEGIN TO SEE MORE PLACES WHERE AND WHAT IS GOING ON AS A COUNTRY.

IF WE THINK ABOUT THE CAR COMING IN WE WILL HAVE A MASSIVE SEE OF APPLE AND THAT'S WHAT WE ARE HOPEFUL NOT TO DO IN THE FUTURE THAT'S WHAT WAS BEFORE IN THE CENTER IS A MASSIVE SEA OF ASPHALT IN A BUILDING. IN THE FUTURE, YOU'LL SEE MORE PROPOSALS TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF PARKING SPACES.

TO ENCOURAGE A CENTER. IT IS LIKE THE IDEA OF A CHURCH.

AT WHAT POINT DOES A CHURCH GROW OR DO YOU ADD ANOTHER SERVICE? IS THE SAME THING FOR THESE I THINK PEOPLE WOULD LOVE TO SEE TURNOVER AND SEE A CENTER THAT FEELS GOOD BECAUSE YOU HAVE A THOUSAND PARKING SPACES. SO AS A RESULT YOU'LL SEE MORE PUSHES TO REDO REDUCTIONS TO CREATE OUT PARCELS OR SPOTS.

EVEN THOUGH BETWEEN THE BURGER KING AND THE PAYLESS IT HAS A LITTLE BIT OF A PARKING FIELD, IT HAS A AREA THAT WILL EASILY WANT TO SEE THAT TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT.

WE WANT TO TURN THAT INTO ANOTHER GAS STATION SPOT FOR THAT. SO WE'LL SEE THOSE TYPES OF BUSHES. MOC THAT MENTIONED IN OTHERS.

WE DO WANT TO PROTECT THAT FRONT VIEW.

WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS IS LIKE A GATEWAY.

WE ARE TRYING TO IMPLEMENT AT THIS POINT, AND YOU KNOW IT HAS BEEN MY VOICE. THE CLIENT ON THE BACK, IF HE TELLS YOU AND IF HE WERE TO ASK HIM, I PUSH THEM ALL THE TIME.

AND WE HAVE ACTUALLY KINDA GOT A BATTLE AT TIMES JOKINGLY BACK AND FORTH. BECAUSE FOR THEM IT IS A BUSINESS DECISION. WHEN THEY PURCHASE THE CENTER.

THEY NEVER IMAGINED ALL OF THE THOSE THAT THEY WOULD FIND THAT THEY GOT INVOLVED WITH IT. THEY NEVER IMAGINE THE LOSS OF KMART AND WINN-DIXIE. THEY WOULD NOT HAVE IMAGINED.

HOWEVER, WITH WHAT THEY HAVE THEY MIGHT FIND A WAY TO START TO TURN THIS LEMON INTO LEMONADE AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HOPING

FOR. >> THANK YOU, AND YOU WENT EXACTLY WHERE I WANT TO GO. IT WAS ABOUT PARKING, AND THIS WAS 1980S PAVED PARADISE. TRULY THAT'S WHAT I CALLED HER.

PAIGE PARADISE. AND THAT'S WHAT WE DID.

WE WERE DESIGNING FOR LARGE CARS THAT WERE COMING TO SHOP AT THE STORE. I CAN TELL YOU NOW, AND YOU KNOW PERSONALLY MY KIDS DON'T DO THAT.

YOUR KIDS DON'T DO THAT. YOUR KIDS DON'T DO THAT.

IT'S JUST NOT THE WAY WE'RE WE ARE GOING.

I WOULD ENCOURAGE WITH WAWA, THIS IS NOT A CONDITION.

JUST A CONVERSATION PETE. BECAUSE I HAVE AT THE PODIUM.

THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS.

THEY HAVE NO OTHER DONE IT IN OTHER PLACES WITHIN FORT PIERCE.

THE OTHER ASPECT OF THIS ENTIRE PLAZA THAT I RECALL WHEN I GO BACK AND SITTING ON THE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING ORGANIZATION. IT IS HOW ARE YOUR DELIVERY VEHICLES GOING TO GET SAFELY OFF OF U.S. ONE? AND I KNOW THERE IS AN OUT PARCEL TO THE NORTH, IS THAT

PARCEL ALSO OWNED BY. >> IT IS, WE OFTEN REFER TO THAT

AS THE BOYAR PROPERTY. >> JUST LIKE PAVED PARADISE.

>> IT IS. OVER TIME AND DOT HAS SPECIFIC DESIGN STANDARDS FORT PIERCE. BUT AS YOU MOVE FORWARD WITH THE PLAZA OVERALL, JUST TRY AND TO GET TRAFFIC ON THE U.S. ONE AND A SAFE MANNER. MAYBE THAT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO THE NORTH. BECAUSE IT DOES COME INTO THE BACK OF THE PLAZA. MAYBE YOU ARTY THINKING ABOUT THAT? IT IS FOOD FOR THOUGHT, BECAUSE THE ENTRANCEWAY IS BEAUTIFUL AND I CAN'T REMEMBER EXACTLY HOW BIG THE RADIUS IS AT THE TRAFFIC LIGHT.

BUT THAT IS NOT ABOUT THIS APPLICATION JUST CONVERSATIONS

FOR THE ENTIRE PARCEL. >> COMMISSIONER TO YOUR POINT WE ACTUALLY DID DESIGN THAT ENTRANTS WITH TRAFFIC AS A PART OF THAT. SO IS A BIG DISCUSSION ABOUT THE RADIUS IS. SO WORKING WITH JACK AND HIS AND HIS STAFF. LOOKING AT THE TURNING TEMPLATES TO SEE WHAT WAS IN PLACE TODAY TO HELP BRING TRAFFIC IN ALL THE U.S. ONE. IT IS ONE OF THOSE UNDOING ELEMENTS THAT WILL HAVE TO CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON.

THE EXCESS THAT WE HAVE, AND WHAT WE ARE GOING ON WITH THE

[00:40:02]

I THINK THE OTHER THING THAT YOU MENTIONED IS NOT SHOWING HERE.

IT WHERE IT SAYS 477 ON THE SCREEN.

>> 'S ARGUMENTS ARE CUT AND IT SET READY.

>> THAT'S ALL I NEED. >> THANK YOU, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WE'RE GOING TO BRING YOU BACK UP ANYBODY ELSE WHO WANTS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE PLEASE COME FORWARD. PLEASE COME FORWARD.

>> HI. >> IF YOU COULD COME TO THE PRODI MAMA STATE THE NAME ADDRESS.

>> HI MY NAME IS ROSALYN BRADSHAW I LIVE AT 2060 COLONIAL ROAD. I AM BEHIND THIS PROPOSED EVENT.

TODD BRIEFLY MENTIONED, THE VALUE OF THE HOMEOWNERS PROPERTY THAT WOULD BE ME. AND HE BRIEFLY MENTIONED THE TWO WHAT YOU CALL THOSE PLACES. THE 31 MACHINE ARCADE SO 33 ARCADE. HE BRIEFLY MENTIONED THOSE TWO THINGS. VERY BRIEFLY VERY DOWN UNDERNEATH. THAT ARE GOING TO BE LOCATED IN THE PLAZA. WELL I HAVE TO SAY, I LIVE RIGHT BEHIND THERE. AND I DON'T CARE TO HAVE AN ARCADE IN THE PLAZA. I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE A VERY NICE ATTRACTION. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND WENT AROUND TO SOME ARCADES. I WENT DOWN SOUTH ON U.S. ONE.

ACTUALLY I REPRESENT THIS COMMUNITY CALLED KEY COLONY 57 HOMEOWNERS NOT RENTERS. THAT LIVED DIRECTLY BEHIND THE PLAZA. NONE OF US, WANT TO HAVE ARCADES LOCATED IN THE PLAZA. IT IS NOT A REALLY NICE ATTRACTIVE BUSINESS. THAT OPERATES SOME OF THEM 24 HOURS A DAY. ANYWAY, WE WENT DOWN AND DRIVING DOWN U.S. ONE DOWN TO PORT ST. LUCIE.

THERE ARE MANY ARCADES THERE. YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET IN TOUCH WTH THE PORT ST. LUCIE POLICE AND SEE HOW MUCH ATTRACTION THAT THEY HAVE TWO CHECK UP ON ON THOSE BUSINESSES.

I KNOW AT OUR HOMEOWNERS MEETING WE HAVE THE FORT.

HE'S ASPECT OF FORT PIERCE POLICE COME.

WE MET A LOT OF THEFT IN THE PARKING LOT.

UNFORTUNATELY THE FORT PIERCE POLICE COME TO OUR MEETINGS AND HELP US OUT TRYING TO CATCH THESE PEOPLE WHO COME THROUGH OUR PARKING LOT. AND BREAK INTO CARS.

AND AS I SAID WE SHARE A WALL WITH THIS PLAZA.

SO BURGLARY IS A REAL PROBLEM. SO I JUST THINK THE FORT PIERCE POLICE WILL BE VERY BUSY IF WE HAVE NOT ONE BUT TWO ARCADES.

I KNOW TODD JUST BRIEFLY SNUCK IN THERE THERE'S GOING TO BE TO ARCADES IN THE PLAZA. IF YOU EVER SEEN THE ARCADE SIGNS. THERE REALLY GARISH BLASTING ARCADE, ARCADE. NOT REALLY ATTRACTIVE.

I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU THINK HOW YOU THINK THAT WOULD BE AN ATTRACTIVE THING. FOR APPOSITE TO ATTRACT HOMEOWNERS WHAT A NICE AREA TO BUY HOMES IN.

BUT I NOTICE SHE KIND OF CAP AND DIDN'T SAY TOO MUCH ON THE SIGNAGE IS IS NOT VERY ATTRACTIVE.

BUT ANYWAY, THE POLICE YOU MIGHT NEED TO.

YOU MIGHT NEED TO GET MORE POLICE.

ANYWAY LOOKING INTO THIS, I NOTICED THAT JACKSONVILLE NASA COLONY AS RECENTLY SET DOWN 200 ARCADES DUE TO HIGH CRIME AND THE ESTABLISHMENTS. THAT WAS AN ARTICLE THAT WAS IN THE VERO NEWSPAPER RECENTLY. SO I GUESS THESE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT I WOULD SUGGEST YOU LOOK INTO.

YOU ARE A LOTS OF ARCADES. IN FACT SOUTH OF US ON U.S. ONE.

JUST ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET.

I MEAN,, HOW MANY ARCADES? >> THANK YOU MA'AM TIME IS UP.

>> SORRY TO THINK UP YOUR TIME -- SORRY TO TAKE UP YOUR TIME.

>> NO, YOU HAVE 3 MINUTES THAT'S ALL.

>> I HAVE A QUESTION MS. BRADSHAW? YOU SAID IN SHARING YOUR TESTIMONY THERE IS A WALL

BETWEEN. >> YES THERE IS A WALL BEHIND

THIS? >> HOW TALL IS IT?

>> IT IS TALLER THAN I AM MIP SIX TO 8 FEET.

WE HAVE NOT BEING ABLE TO ESTABLISH WE BEEN LOOKING INTO WHO OWNS THAT WALL. THE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION'S

[00:45:01]

WE DO NOT KNOW IF THAT PLOWS OWNS THE WALL, OR WHO DOES.

THERE ARE SOME TREES THAT ARE GROWING ON THAT WALL THAT ARE PUSHING ONTO OUR FENCE. AND WE DO NOT KNOW WE CAN'T SEEM

TO FIND OUT WHO WANTS A WALL. >> IS A WALL NOT A WOOD FENCE?

>> NO IS A CONCRETE WALL AND I DON'T KNOW WHO WANTS IT.

WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU CAN FIND OUT.

>> OKAY HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN AT YOUR RESIDENCE?

>> I HAVE BEEN THERE FOR YEARS IS CALLED KEY COLONY.

>> YES, MA'AM I KNOW IT IS. IS THERE ANY SIGNAGE ON THE PROPERTY THAT FACES YOUR RESIDENCE CURRENTLY?

>> YES. >> AND IT FACES YOUR RESIDENT AND IS SIGNAGE ON THE BACK OF THE BUILDING?

>> ON THE BACK? >> ON THE BACK YOU ARE ON THE

BACKSIDE OF THE PLAZA. >> SAM.

>> SO THERE IS NOTHING ON THE BUILDING ITSELF EITHER ITSELF?

NOTHING LIT UP. >> NOT ON YOUR BUILDING.

>> I FACE THE PLAZA IS THERE IS A PARKING LOT.

>> THIS IS LIKE A FACT-FINDING MISSION FOR ME.

>> WHEN I AM STANDING LOOKING AT THE BACK OF THE PLAN IS A YES THERE ARE SOME SIGNS ON THEIR I CAN'T READ THEM?

>> ARE THEY LIT, AND YOU TALKED ABOUT SIGNAGE HEAVILY IN YOUR TESTIMONY. DO YOU THINK THE OWNER IS GOING TO PROVIDE SIGNAGE TO THE BACK OF THE BUILDING THAT'S GOING TO

BE LIT? >> IT IS LIT UP.

>> THE BUILDING IS LIT UP AT SAFETY AND SECURITY THAT IS OUR

ORDINANCE. >> YES IT IS LIT UP BACK THERE.

>> YOU TALKED ABOUT SIGNAGE IN YOUR TESTIMONY I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THERE IS GOING TO BE SIGNS THAT ARE GOING TO BE LIT UP THAT I COULD BE FACING YOUR RESIDENCE IS THAT YOUR CONCERN?

>> NO I DON'T HAVE A CONCERN OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT THE SIGNS OF THE FRONT. I AM JUST SAYING THE FRONT OF THE STREET. WHEN YOU GO DOWN TO ST. LUCIE SOUTH, YOU SEE ALL THESE FLASHING SIGNS AND THEY LOOK

CHEESY. >> SO YOU HAVE CONCERN FOR THE

U.S. ONE SIDE BASICALLY? >> IT'S KINDA CHEESY YOU KNOW IF YOU WANT TO LOOK CHEESY THAT'S OKAY IF YOU WANT TO LOOK CHEESY

FORT PIERCE. >> THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WANT TO

ADDRESS THIS ISSUE? >> MR. MOWRY DO YOU WANT TO COME BACK AND CLOSE OUT AND ANSWER ANYTHING THAT WAS SAID?

>> THANK YOU MET THEM THERE. I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING ELSE ON

THE SKIRMISHERS HAVE A QUESTION. >> I HAVE A QUESTION BACK TO THE SITE PLAN I'M LOOKING AT ON THE SCREEN.

BASED ON THE CONCERNS YOU HEARD FROM MRS. BRATCHER.

CONCERNING THE BACK. SO CURRENTLY, THE CONDITION OF THE BACK OF THAT BUILDING RIGHT NOW.

IS IT TRUE TO TEST WHAT I AM SEEING.

OR IS THERE TREES HERE I AM ASSUMING?

>> YES CURRENTLY THE BACK OF THE PLAZA WAS RECENTLY UPGRADED AGAIN. AGAIN IT WAS PART OF THE PROCESS OF REPAINTING THE BUILDING. SO WE WENT THROUGH AND REPAINTED. THERE IS NO SIGNAGE THAT IS GOING TO PUT ON THE BACKS OF THESE.

SO THERE IS NOTHING THERE. IN FACT THE TREES THAT SHE WAS DISCUSSING, THAT IS ACTUALLY NOT ON OUR PROPERTY LINE.

THAT IS OFF OF OUR SITE. SO I AM NOT SURE WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT. IF SHE WAS HAS CONCERNS ABOUT

VEGETATION I WAS THERE. >> I AM LOOKING AT TREES HERE.

>> NO WE DON'T PLAY AN IMPORTANT PLANTING IN THE BACK AREA.

>> IN THE FENCE IS THAT YOUR FENCE?

>> IT IS NOT. >> COMMISSIONER JAY JOHNSON.

>> DO YOU PLAN ON PUTTING ANY SIGNAGE? ARE YOU GOING TO MEET CITY COMPANY WITH THE LIGHTING IN THE

BACK. >> NOTHING IS PLANNED ON THE BACK OF THE BUILDING AT ALL. IN ALL FRONT SIGNAGE WILL ALL MEET CITY CODE. AND THAT.

>> HELP OUTSIDE LIGHTING IN GENERAL THE BACK OF THE

BUILDING. >> THERE IS NO IMPROVEMENTS TO

THE BACK AND BILLING. >> OKAY YOU WILL HAVE SOME

SIDELINING FOR EMPLOYEES. >> EXISTING.

>> OKAY EXISTING. >>

>> OKAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> CAN I BE SWORN IN PETER

FELDMAN. >> YOU ARE FIRM TO TELL THE TRUTH HOLDS WITH ANOTHER BUT THE TRUTH?

>> I AM. >> .

STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD. >> PETER FELDMAN REPRESENTING MORRISSETTE NICK FORT PIERCE ASSOCIATES.

WE WERE REQUESTED BY ONE OF THE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATIONS.

WENDY I DON'T HAVE THE FULL NAME.

REGARDING THE FENCE IN THE BACK AND THE TREES THAT WERE GOING THERE. AND, WE HAD A SURVEY DONE, OF

[00:50:03]

AND THERE SURVEY STAKES WERE PUT IN, AND AFTER THE SERVICE THEY SUPPORTED AND I WANT IT. AND I CALLED HER AND ALL THOSE TREES IN THE FENCE ARE NOT ON OUR PROPERTY.

BASED UPON THE SURVEY. THERE IS NO INTENTION OF EVER PUTTING SIGNAGE ON THE BACK OF THE BUILDING.

THAT'S NOT THE OWNER'S REPRESENTATION TO DO SO.

JUST AS AN INFORMATION POINT WE DO NOT ALLOW HEAVY NEON SIGNS AND GLASS WINDOWS OF THE STORES. THEY ARE ALLOWED A FAÇADE SIGN APPROVED BY THE CITY. AND WE ARE VERY RESTRICTIVE ON WHAT SIGNS CAN BE PUT IN THERE. WE DON'T HAVE IT FOR ANY OF THE TENDONS AND THE PIECE IS RESTRICTED.

SO WE ARE VERY AWARE OF THE NATURE OF WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO DO. WE ARE NOT TRYING TO MAKE THIS FLASHY ALL NIGHT LONG. I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT. JUST TO UPDATE ON TODD.

BESIDES THE ROOF, WE PUT IN $850,000.

WITH SO WE PUT IN AT THE LAST 18 MONTHS ABOUT $2 MILLION INTO THE CENTER. IN OUR BELIEF THAT THE CENTER WILL EVENTUALLY GET THERE. WE HAVE TWO NATIONAL TENANTS AS TODD SAID WHICH WE HOPE TO INCLUDE LEASES WITHIN THE NEXT 30-60 DAYS TO TAKE OVER CAME ON TOP OF THE KMART CENTER.

>> I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF BUZZ IN FORT PIERCE FOR SENIOR IMPROVEMENTS. AND PEOPLE WANTING TO KNOW WHAT

WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. >> JUST TO LET YOU KNOW REGARDING THE PAINTING OF THE REAR OF THE BUILDING.

THERE IS BUT ONE MISTAKE. THERE HASN'T BEEN REPAINTING.

I'M COMING BACK WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH THE MAGISTRATE TO GET THE PAINTING. THIS PAINTING IS WILL START MARCH 3. IT HAS BEEN PRESSURE CLEANED BUT HAS NOT BEEN PAINTED. I DON'T WANT THE RECORD TO BE MISSTATED. AND THE OTHER THING IS CODE ENFORCEMENT ASKED US TO CATALOG OF THE TREES DOWN AND BACK.

WHICH WE DID. BECAUSE THEY HAD VAGRANTS AND BONES ARE SLEEPING ON THE TREES. SO ON ONE HAND WE ARE TOLD TO PLANT TREES AND THEN WE GOT ANOTHER THINK OF THE CODE ENFORCEMENT KEPT TELLING US HE CUT THOSE DOWN.

BECAUSE THEY'RE GROWN SO BIG THEY'RE MAKING HOMES THERE.

SO WE TRY TO COOPERATE WHERE WE CAN.

>> CAREFUL BALANCE. >> SO WE APPRECIATE THE PATIENCE. WE APPRECIATE THE PATIENCE OF THE CITY AND STAFF ELEMENTS THANK YOU.

>> MADAME MAYOR I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION FOR THE ATTORNEY PLEASE FOR TODD I'M SORRY. YES.

YOU WILL REPRESENT THE CLIENT RIGHT?

>> YES. >> SO I WAS READING THROUGH THE PLAN HERE AND I KINDA KNOW IT'S A SMALL THING ABOUT THE OPERATION HOURS. WE'RE TALKING EIGHT TO MIDNIGHT OR EIGHT TO 2:00 A.M. I DON'T SEE ANYTHING ADDRESSING SECURITY CONCERNS OF PATRONS GOING OUT.

I DON'T THINK ANY OTHER BUSINESS TO MY KNOWLEDGE ARE PRESENT LATE IN THAT AREA. IS THAT SOMETHING THAT I MISSED IN THIS? WOULD YOU PLAN.

>> GOOD QUESTION, JUST AT THIS POINT IN TERMS OF OUR WE ARE FOLLOWING CITY STATUE DISCOUNT OF OURS.

THE CITY DOESN'T ALLOW 24 HOURS. BUT WE ARE FOLLOWING CITY STANDARDS AS THEY RELATE TO THOSE EFFORTS.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT COMES TO THAT.

THEY WOULD LOVE TO ACTUALLY OPERATE 24 HOURS.

THAT REALLY IS THE TREND WHEN IT COMES TO THOSE TYPES OF USES.

AND I THINK YOU LOOK AT THE COMMUNITIES AS A WHOLE SAYING WE ALL SLEEP DIFFERENT SHIFTS. WE WORKED DIFFERNT SHIFTS.

AND YOU BEGIN TO GROW UP AS A COMMUNITY YOU NEED TO HAVE OPERATIONS OR THINGS THAT WORK DIFFERENT HOURS.

AS A RELATES TO SECURITY, A MINOT AWARE OF ANY.

I DO HAVE THE APPLICANT HERE IF YOU DO LIKE WE CAN ASK THE APPLICANT AS A RELEASE TO THAT. WHEN IT COMES TO LETTING IN PARTICULAR. ALL OF THE UNDER CANOPY LIGHTING IS ALL BEING UPGRADED AND REPLACED AS WE TALK ABOUT THIS.

I KNOW I SAW THE BIDS COMING IN. WAS THAT PERFORM UNDER THE

CANOPY? >> YOU NEED TO COME TO THE MIC

SIR. >> HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH LED LIGHTING. SO WILL BE PAINTED THE ARCHWAY.

>> AND THEN UPGRADED THE LIGHTS IN THE PARKING LOT.

MANY LIGHTS OVER THE YEARS COMMISSIONER WERE HAD FALL IN THE STATE OF REPAIR. SO THOSE ARE ALL BEING UPGRADED

WHEN IT COMES TO THE SECURITY. >> IT IS A CONCERN AND WHERE THE OTHER APPLICANTS MENTIONED THAT. AND PEOPLE WILL PATRONIZE THAT BUSINESS AND GOING TO THEIR CARS.

WE CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO INVITE A SENSE OF OPPORTUNITY FOR CRIME. THAT IS A CONCERN RIGHT.

SO I'D RATHER TRY TO PREVENT THAT UPFRONT.

AND IF SOME TYPE OF DETERRENT AND NOT NECESSARILY TASKED OUR

[00:55:04]

THAT IS A BIG CONCERN OF MINE. >> SURE, IT'S BEEN INTERESTING FOR ME MY OWN EDUCATION WITH THE JUICES.

I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT THIS IS JUST A PLACE OF A CERTAIN AGE GROUP. AND IT'S BEEN INTERESTING TO SEE THAT THESE ARE BECOMING QUITE A TREND AS WE NO LONGER JUST.

A SENIOR POPULATION THAT IS GOING TO THE ARCADE.

SO WE ARE SEEING A VARIATION OF PATIENTS.

KELLY WOULD YOU? >> I DON'T THINK SHE WAS SWORN

IN. >> GETS.

>> DO YOU RAISE YOUR HAND? DO YOU SWEAR TO TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT TRUTH THANK YOU.

>> HI MY NAME IS KELLY. >> WHAT IS YOUR LAST NAME KELLY.

>> WISE WISC. MY ADDRESS IS 1008 YORK AVENUE FORT PIERCE FLORIDA. WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO SECURITY.

WE DO ACTUALLY INTEND ON HIRING A SECURITY GUARD TO EITHER WALK THE. IF IT IS AFTER IF IT'S A LATE AT NIGHT TIME. WILL HAVE OUR CUSTOMERS WALK TO THEIR CARS. WE'VE ALSO LOOKED AT THE SHERIFFS DEPARTMENT ACTUALLY ACTUALLY BRINGING AN OFFICER AND OFF-DUTY OFFICER TO COME IN AND PATROL THE AREA.

WHILE BUSINESS OPERATIONS. BECAUSE OF THE LAWS OF THE BUSINESSES THAT ARE THERE NOW THEY DO CLOSEOUT.

SO, WE ARE LOOKING AT THAT. >> OKAY.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH KELLY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

>> ONE LAST COMMENT CONCERN AS WELL.

BECAUSE THERE ARE TWO ITEMS ON THE AGENDA.

THE PAYLESS SHOE STORE ARCADE THAT IS NOT A PART OF THE PLAZA.

SO THERE WERE SOME MISSED NIGHT SEEMS AND LIKES I HAD COME AS BEFORE COME FROM STAFF. WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ALL ARE WERE AWARE THAT. WE HAVE NO SAY OVER ANY OF THEIR SITE AND HOW THEY KEEP IT MAINTAINED AND WHAT THEY DO FOR

THAT PARTICULAR AREA. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT.

>> ALL RIGHT IS THERE ANYONE ELSE IT WILL CLOSE AT PUBLIC HEARING. AND WE WILL ENTERTAIN

DISCUSSION. >> I'D LIKE TO BRING UP A DISCUSSION IT GOES BACK TO THE SECURITY ASPECT OF IT.

I DON'T KNOW AND MAYBE HELP ME HERE.

I'D LIKE TO SEE SOME TYPE OF CONDITIONING REQUIRED FOR SOME TYPE OF SECURITY APPARATUS. EITHER A HIRED SECURITY OR CONTRACTOR WITH THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.

SO THAT WE CAN ASSURE OUR CITIZENS OF THE COMMUNITY THAT

WE ARE DOING DUE DILIGENCE. >> YOU WANT TO FOR CERTAIN

AMOUNT OF TIME? >> THEY ARE GOING FROM EIGHT

A.M. TO 12:00 P.M. >> THE WHOLE TIME AS IT IS OPEN

IS THAT WE WERE THINKING? >> I AM THINKING THAT YES,

MA'AM. >> I HAVE A GOOD QUESTION

COMMISSIONER,. >> AFTER MIDNIGHT THE NIGHT OUR

TIME. >> IN THE DAYTIME I DON'T WRITE?

>> YES RIGHT. >> SO COMMISSIONER HOW DOES THIS OPERATE? THIS IS A PLACE OF BUSINESS, THE BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT HAPPENING WITHIN IS DIFFERENT THAN REGULAR RETAIL. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE WITH A RESTAURANT OR A BAR OR SOMETHING?

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE FOR YOU? >> FOR ME THE DIFFERENCE IS IT WILL BE OPERATING AT AN HOUR THAT PLAZA STEPPED TYPICALLY CLOSE. FIRST OF ALL.

I THINK. BECAUSE AS I LOOK AT THE BUSINESSES THROUGHOUT THAT AREA. I DON'T SEE ANYBODY OPERATING PAST THAT HOUR OF NIGHT. SO I THINK THAT WE MAY.

I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN ONE. IT IS SOME TYPE OF AMUSEMENT.

SO SOMEHOW THOSE PATRONS HAVE TO PATRONIZE THAT RIGHT? SO MY CONCERN IS, EITHER GOING IN HER COMING OUT AFTER GOING IN THERE THAT MIGHT BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR WHOEVER RIGHT?

AND THAT IS A CONCERN. >> AND THAT MAKES SENSE.

I'M WONDERING IF OUR CODE DOESN'T ALREADY COVER THAT? THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE SOME THINGS IN PLACE.

>> AND I DON'T KNOW AND THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING FOR CLARIFICATION. MR. SWEENEY MAYBE COULD SHINE HIM AND HELP US. THAT'S WHAT I LIKE TO KNOW?

>> MR. SWEENEY DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO SHARE WITH US?

>> MATTA MAYOR I'M LOOKING AT THE SECTION OF THE CODE.

WE HAVE A SPECIFIC SECTION OF OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE.

THAT IS JUST ABOUT AMUSEMENT ARCADES.

AND IT IS PRETTY THOROUGH. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT HOURS OF OPERATION AND LIGHTING AND VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING THAT THE STAFF AS PRESENTED. THERE IS A REQUIREMENT FOR A BACKGROUND CHECK OF NOT ONLY ALL OF THE OWNERS BUT ALL OF THE EMPLOYEES. THAT WILL BE WORKING THERE.

[01:00:01]

AND IF THEY FAIL CERTAIN TESTS THEY ARE DISQUALIFIED.

SO IT IS I WOULD SAY IN GENERAL, IT IS COMPREHENSIVE.

BUT, I DO SHARE SOME CONCERN THAT YOU HAVE FOR EXAMPLE.

YOU MIGHT HAVE A BANK, AND WE DON'T REQUIRE BANKS TO PROVIDE SECURITY AND THEY CLEARLY DEAL WITH CASH.

ON A REGULAR BASIS. WE DON'T REQUIRE PAWN SHOPS THAT AFFRONTED ALONG U.S. ONE. I THINK THE CONCERN THAT IN THIS PARTICULAR PLAZA YOU MOSTLY ARE CLOSE PROBABLY AFTER I DON'T KNOW WHAT TIME THE PIZZA PLACE DELIVER STILL.

BUT DOWNTOWN FORT PIERCE, WE HAVE MULTIPLE RESTAURANTS THAT ARE OPEN TILL 2:00 A.M. I BELIEVE THE BISTRO IS OPEN IT A LEAST UNTIL MIDNIGHT ON A DAILY BASIS.

WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE. THE CONCERN IS OUT BUT.

BUT I DON'T SEE THE STAFF THAT RECOMMENDS IT AND I HAVE NOT SEEN IT COME UP. I WOULD DEFER IF STAFF HAS EVER HAD THAT FOR ANY OTHER TYPE OF BUSINESS TO COME UP.

A REQUIREMENT OF SECURITY. >> OR EVEN IN ARCADE.

>> ANY BUSINESS. >> THIS IS THE FIRST ARCADE THAT WE APPROVED FOR MY PERSPECTIVE. WHY THIS ONE? WHY DO WE CHANGE FOR THIS ONE? I THINK IT IS JUST GOOD BUSINESS. IS THIS SUCH A NEFARIOUS BUSINESS THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE A CONDITION WHERE YOU'LL HAVE SECURITY? I DON'T THINK SO.

I THINK IT IS GOOD BUSINESS THAT IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM YOU'RE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND FIX IT YOU WILL GOING TO PUT SECURITY IN THERE. WE ARE NOT GOING TO REQUIRE IT.

YOU'RE GOING REQUIRE IT. FOLKS THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS OUT THERE. THERE IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER OPTION IN THIS PLAZA IT LOOKS LIKE.

POSSIBLY. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM IN THIS ONE WILL GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. DON'T GO THERE IF THEY HAVE A PROBLEM. WHOEVER IS THE OWNER OPERATOR OF THAT BUSINESS IS GOING TO SIT THERE AND SAY WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE THAT. SO WE ARE GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE SAFETY FOR OUR TENANTS AND OUR CLIENTS.

I WOULD NOT WANT TO MAKE THAT A CONDITION.

ONLY BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T DONE IN THE PAST.

AND AGAIN I DON'T SEE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS AND ANYTHING ELSE. I THINK IT GOES TO THE BUSINESS OWNER AND OPERATOR TO MAKE THAT DECISION.

THAT'S A FIRST TIME I DISAGREE WITH YOU FOR THE RECORD.

>> I RESPECTIVELY RESERVE THE RIGHT TO DISAGREE.

YOU KNOW I JUST THINK WE NEED TO LOOK AT THIS.

AND I'VE DONE A LITTLE RESEARCH. AND I HAVE ONE THAT IS SAYING THAT IT GOING TO PROVIDE AND ONE THAT WON'T.

I AM JUST CONCERNED. I CAN'T GO BACK AND NOT ON THE COMMISSION WHEN OTHER THINGS WERE APPROVED PRIOR.

I'M GOING FORWARD. AND I JUST HAVE A CONCERN THAT WE MAY NOT HAVE IT IN A CONDITIONAL.

MY POINT HAS BEEN MADE TO THE OWNERS.

OF THIS BUSINESS, THAT THIS IS A CONCERN.

AND YOU KNOW I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE OPPORTUNITIES PRESENTED THAT AREN'T CURRENLY THERE. THAT MAY REALIZE.

WE ARE LOOKING AT TWO NEW PLACES OF RETAIL IN THAT AREA.

SO I WILL MADE MY POINT. AND I THINK WE RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE. IT IS WHAT IT IS THANK YOU.

>> ALRIGHTY ANY OTHER DISCUSSION I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION?

>> I MOVE FOR THE APPROVAL WITH STAFF RECOMMENDATION.

>> SECOND PERIOD. >> MAY I GET CLARIFICATION ON THE AGENDA IT IS PROVIDING FOR 31 MACHINES BUT STAFF DID CHANGE IT TO 33 MACHINES. SO IS IT THE 33 MACHINES.

>> IT DOES INCLUDES STAFF'S AMENDMENT OF 33 MACHINES THANK

YOU FOR CATCHING THAT. >> COMMISSIONER C JOHNSON,

YES-MEN. >> J JOHNSON.

>> YES, MA'AM. MAYOR JOHNSON.

[01:10:05]

WE HAVE SEVEN CONDITIONS. NUMBER ONE,.

>> I THINK WE NEED TO GO BACK TO THIS AFTERWARDS.

SO I ONLY READ THE ONE ITEM. THIS ONE IS NOT UNDER

CONSIDERATION AT ONE POINT. >> OKAY JUST THE WAIVER NO

PROBLEM. >> WE ARE JUST DEALING WITH THE ZONING. SO IS THE APPLICANT HERE? AND WITH THE APPLICANT LIKE TO? DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS WELCOME. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR

STAFF? >> NO,.

>> HAVE YOU BEEN SWORN IN. >> YES, MA'AM WE HAVE BEEN SWORN IN AND THEY HAVE BEEN VERY HELPFUL.

FIRST OF ALL, AS FAR AS THIS ARCADE IS CONCERNED.

>> CAN YOU STAY FURTHER -- AND YOU STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD EVEN THOUGH WE KNOW YOU ARE.

>> I AM NOT WHERE MY CITY COMMISSIONERS APP ON MY ATTORNEYS AT. REGINALD SESSIONS ATTORNEY AT

LAW. >> YOU LOOK SMALLER FROM UP

HERE. >> I CAN AFFORD A NICE SUIT TOO.

AT ANY RATE REGINALD SESSIONS. >> AND YOUR ADDRESS.

>> 41 SOUTH SECOND STREET FORT PIERCE FLORIDA.

>> WHAT WE HAVE HERE FOR THIS EVENING'S TRIPLE ROYAL INCORPORATED. AND RIGHT NOW I GUESS WE ARE DEALING WITH THIS INDIVIDUALLY. RIGHT NOW A WAIVER OF DISTANCE IS CONCERNED. AND I AM GOING TO PRETTY MUCH COVERED EVERYTHING. WE HAVE A PROJECT MANAGER HERE.

MR. CORZINE. WE COLUMN C.

Z HAS BEEN IN CHARGE FROM THE BEGINNING.

TO THE END. THEY'VE BEEN RUNNING DIFFICULTIES IN THE TAIL END AND THEY BROUGHT ME IN.

AT ANY RATE, WE HAVE THREE BUSINESSMEN HERE THAT HAVE HAD BUSINESSES IN THE AREA. BEFORE, WE HAVE MISSED AS THE AND WE HAVE Z AND MR. MACHINE AND THE MR. AHMED.

THESE GENTLEMEN DECIDED TO INCORPORATE AND OPEN UP IN ARCADE. TRIPLE ROYAL INCORPORATED.

IT WAS A BUSINESS DECISION. WE HAVE ONE WITH WISDOM, WE HAVE SOMEONE HERE WITH A LOT OF KNOWLEDGE AND I THINK ALL THREE OF THEM HAVE A WHOLE LOT OF MONEY.

SO WE ALL HAVE THE FINANCIAL WHEREWITHAL.

WHAT THEY BRING TO THE TABLE IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

THIS YOUNG MAN HAS SO MANY IDEAS IN TERMS OF WHAT HE IS NOT GOING TO BRING JUST A REGULAR ARCADE INTO THIS AREA.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, AS FAR AS OUR YOUTH IN OUR YOUNG PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED AGES 21 AND 30 AND 35. WE DON'T REALLY HAVE A LOT OF ACTIVITIES TO KEEP THEM OCCUPIED.

OTHER THAN NIGHTCLUBS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE.

A LOT OF THINGS HAPPEN IN NIGHTCLUBS.

WHEN I WAS SITTING ON THAT SIDE, THAT WAS A BIG CONCERN.

NIGHTCLUBS AND TRYING TO KEEP YOUNG PEOPLE OCCUPIED.

THIS YOUNG MAN IS BRINGING TO THE TABLE SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

IN UNIQUE AND HE SHARES THINGS WITH ME.

IN TERMS OF ENTERTAINMENT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

BUT THE PURPOSES FOR AN AN ARCADE.

THIS IS ADULT ENTERTAINMENT. AND, WHAT I LIKE ABOUT HIS PROJECT WHICH IS A CONCERN OF MINE WHEN I WAS UP THERE WAS SECURITY. HE'S GOING TO HAVE SECURITY.

AND WITH THAT BEING SAID IT'S GOING TO PROBABLY BE A PLUS FOR EVERYBODY BEHIND THEM. HE'S GOING TO HAVE ACTIVE SECURITY INSIDE AND OUT. THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT WHEN YOU'RE RUNNING THESE BUSINESSES. I HEARD THE YOUNG LADY APPEAR EARLIER WITH REGARDS TO SECURITY.

GUESS WHAT HE IS ALREADY TAKEN CARE OF THAT.

HE HAS SECURITY READY TO GO HE WILL HAVE IT ON THE OUTSIDE THEY WILL BE ARMED AND READY TO PROTECT THE PREMISES IF NEED BE.

THEY ALSO BRING AS FAR AS THIS BUILDING IS CONCERNED THERE WILL BE NOT ANY NEW CONSTRUCTION. AND IF YOU FAMILIAR WITH THE OLD

[01:15:03]

THEY HAVE LIGHTS, AT THE TOP OF THE BUILDING.

AND THE LIGHTS COME DOWN AND YOU COULD FOCUS ON PARKING LOT.

THAT IS DIFFERENT WHEN IT COMES A LOT OF CONSTRUCTIONS.

THE LIGHTS ARE AT A POINT WHERE THEY WILL SHINE ON THE PARKING LOT. AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS UNIQUE BUT THIS BUILDING THAT HE WAS POINTING OUT TO ME.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST, THE SIGNS TO GET OUT OF HAND.

BUT HE IS GOING TO HAVE A VERY CONSERVATIVE SIGN.

WITH FACEBOOK AND TWITTER AND ALL OF THOSE THINGS OF THAT NATURE. THAT'S WHAT BRINGS THE PEOPLE.

TO SHOP AND ENTERTAIN NOWADAYS. IT'S NOT ABOUT A BIG BRIGHT SIGN. IT'S ABOUT GETTING ON FACEBOOK AND SEEING ALL KINDS OF THINGS. I CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO EVEN DESCRIBE WHAT FACEBOOK DOES FOR BUSINESS NOW IN TERMS OF SOCIAL MEDIA. BUT, AGAIN, HE IS LOOKING FORWARD TO IT AND IS PUT A LOT OF WORK INTO IT.

IN TERMS OF GETTING THIS PROJECT GOING.

OF THE PROJECT OWNER OF THE ACTUAL OLD PAYLESS BUILDING.

HE COULDN'T BE HERE TONIGHT. BUT ANY QUESTIONS WITH REGARD TO THE PROJECT ITSELF WE HAVE A PROJECT MANAGER TO ANSWER FROM THE TECHNICAL STANDPOINT. AND HE IS JUST LOOKING TO OPEN UP THIS ARCADE. THE TRF CPF MET THEIR REQUIREMENTS AS WELL AS A UNANIMOUS VOTE BY THE PLANNING BOARD. AND SOMEONE RAISE THE ISSUE NOW I CAN REMEMBER WHO IT WAS. BEING CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE TWO ARCADES.

MA'AM. >> MAYOR HUDSON YES, MA'AM.

>> 'S NEXT WE MOVE ON TO THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF

[01:20:01]

THE WAS HOW 4P'S. >> MADAME CLERK, MR. SWEENEY DO WE NEED TO GO THROUGH ADVERTISING AND ALL THE OTHER

>> SO AS TO HAVE ACQUIRED OR -- AS A ADVERTISING REQUIREMENT TO

MAKE YES, MA'AM. >> COMMISSIONER C JOHNSON.

>> NO MAN. MAYOR.

>> ANYONE WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND? ON THIS ITEM OF CONDITIONAL USE.

DO YOU SWEAR TO AFFIRM TO TELL THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE

TRUTH? >> YES.

>> THANK YOU. >> DO YOU WANT TO CONTINUE ON?

>> NO NO PROBLEM. >> GOT A DOOR RIGHT.

>> YES OF COURSE. THIS IS THEY CAN SIT OR EIGHT AND OF NO NEW CONSTRUCTION OF SOUTH HIGHWAY ONE.

IT IS FOR A 3,188 ARCADE CENTER WITH 30 MACHINES.

STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL WITH SEVEN CONDITIONS.

THE FIRST ONE IS, AMUSEMENT ARCADES ARCADE AMUSEMENT CENTERS SUIT SHALL PROVIDE BRITE CRACKS TO ACCOMMODATE ONE BIKE FOR EACH FIVE MACHINES LOCATED WITHIN THE PREMISES.

INSTALL A BIKE RACK WITH A MINIMUM OF SIX BICYCLE STALLS.

TWO, ALCOHOL SALES OR CONSUMPTION SHALL BE PROHIBITED IN THE AMUSEMENT ARCADES AND THE REASON ARCADE CENTERS.

NUMBER THREE, PLEASE ADHERE TO CITY CODE ONCE 20 SECTION-S25.

NUMBER FOUR, A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY PRIDE A PRIOR CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY OF A LANDSCAPE BOND MUST BE RECEIVED.

NUMBER FIVE, LANDSCAPING MUST COMPLY WITH REQUIREMENTS OF THE CITIES. LANDSCAPING ORDERED ITS PRIDE TO BUSINESS TAX RECEIPT. NUMBER SIX, LIGHTING FOR THE PARKING LOT MUST SATISFY LIGHTING REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 125315 T1 PRIOR TO THE BUSINESS RECEIPT.

COMMERCIAL RECRUIT AVERAGE 2-FOOT PER PARKING AREAS.

AND NUMBER SEVEN APPROVAL OF THE WAIVER OF DISTANCE APPLICATION WHICH THAT WAS JUST APPROVED. SO THIS ONE ACTUALLY BE SIX.

SIX CONDITIONS INSTEAD OF SEVEN. BECAUSE THIS MOM WAS REQUIRING

THE WAIVER TO BE APPROVED SO. >> OKAY ANY QUESTIONS OR STAFF?

>> MADAME MAYOR JUST ONE QUICK QUESTION.

AS I AM LOOKING AT THE SURVEY OF THE PROPERTY I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW IF THERE IS ANY ACTIVE EASEMENTS ON THIS PARCEL FOR THE UTILITY LINES? BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE THE RIGHT AWAY, I MEAN, I'M SORRY THE PROPER LINE COMES ALL THE WAY OUT TO THE SIDEWALK. DO WE KNOW IF WAS ACTIVE NOT?

>> I WILL HAVE TO DEFER THAT TO THE APPLICANT.

>> THAT WAS A QUESTION KINDA LEADING SOMEONE TO TALK ABOUT LATER. ALSO LANDSCAPE, I AM SHOWING ON THE LANDSCAPE OR WHAT IS SHOWN ON THE LANDSCAPE PLAN.

IT DIFFERS A LITTLE BIT, NO IT DOESN'T.

THE SURVEY SHOWS TWO SIDES THE LANDSCAPE CHOSE ONE SITE OUT BY U.S. ONE? WHAT IS YOUR RECOMMENDATION THERE? IS IT ONE SIGNER TOO?

>> ONE SIGN. >> IF I MAY BENEFIT COMMISSIONER IT WHEN IT COMES TO LANDSCAPE PLAN THESE ARE ALL CONCEPTUAL NATURE. THESE ALL COME UNDER THE BUSINESS TAX RECEIPTS WE WILL BE REQUIRED TO HAVE AN APPROVED LANDSCAPE PLAN. AND GIVEN THAT, THE SITE IS AN OUT PARCEL TO THE REMAINDER OF THE GATEWAY PLAZA.

WE WILL MAKE SURE THAT THE LANDSCAPING IS CONSISTENT AND WILL BE WORKING WITH THE APPLICANT AND URBAN FORRESTER.

>> THAT WAS MY NEXT QUESTION THANK YOU.

>> IF I MAY THIS DISCUSSION IT WAS SOMEWHAT SIMILAR CAME UP ANYMORE. IT WAS TALKING ABOUT THE RIGHT TURN LANE. ON TO VIRGINIA.

WE WANT TO KNOW IF THAT INTERFERED WITH THE PARKING.

SO JUST TO GIVE SOME RELATIONSHIP TO THAT.

IT DID NOT. THAT RIGHT TURN LANE BEGAN RIGHT NEAR THE WAWA. THERE WAS A LOT OF W'S IDEA.

THAT AREA WILL NOT BE AFFECTED. >> EXCELLENT THANK YOU.

>> I THINK YOU CLARIFIED IT ON THE SITE PLAN I'M LOOKING AT THIS ILLUSTRATION. I JUST WONDERING THAT IS A SLIGHT RENDERING. IT WILL ADHERE TO THE CITY CODE UP OVER LOOKING FOR AS FAR AS LANDSCAPE IS THAT CORRECT?

[01:25:01]

I NEED TO MELT. >> KNOW THAT WILL BE DETERMINED AT BUILDING PERMITS WHEN THEY COME IN FOR A BUILDING PERMIT

THAT'S WHEN THE REVIEW THAT. >> OKAY.

>> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OF STAFF? OKAY I WOULD LIKE TO THE APPLICANT COME BACK UP PLEASE WE ARE NOW TALKING ABOUT THE CONDITIONAL USE. IN THE SEVEN CONDITIONS.

>> SIX CONDITIONS. >> YES IT WAS SEVEN WE MET ONE OF THEM THANK YOU. STATE YOUR NAME AGAIN FOR THE

RECORD PLEASE SIR. >> MY NICKNAME IS ATTORNEY REGINALD SESSIONS I REPRESENT TRIPLE ROYAL INCORPORATED.

THE INDIVIDUALS THAT JUST APPROVED THE WAIVER DISTANCE.

NOW THE SUBSEQUENT APPLICATION IS THE CONDITIONAL USE FOR THE PROPERTY. THIS IS AN ISOLATED PIECE OF PROPERTY. HOWEVER, IN OUR OPINION IT IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PIECES OF PROPERTY WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE GATEWAY IN THE ENTRANCE.

THE WAWA WILL BE IMMEDIATELY TO THE SOUTH AND WE HAVE BURGER KING NEXT DOOR AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST WE HAVE THE KMART PLAZA.

AND, THIS IS SOMETHING I KNOW THE CITY HAS BEEN WORKING ON A LONG TIME NOW IN TERMS OF GETTING THAT PARTICULAR PARKING LOT AND BUILDING UP TO PAR. AND WE FEEL THAT WE WILL ALSO ENHANCE THAT AS WELL. THIS IS A PRE-EXISTING BUILDING.

THE YOUNG MAN HERE LIKE I INDICATED EARLIER HE HAS SO MANY BRIGHT IDEAS IN TERMS OF WHAT IS GOING TO OFFER.

IN THE BUSINESS TO MAKE IT ATTRACTIVE.

TO A LOT OF YOUNG PEOPLE. AND ALSO BRING IN THAT ELEMENT OF SAFETY IN THE STONE -- IN THE FORM OF SECURITY WHICH HAS BEEN A CONCERN AND A LOT OF THESE TYPES OF BUSINESSES.

SO, AGAIN IF THERE ARE ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS AS JENNIFER POINTED OUT THERE WAS A CONCERN. COMMISSIONER JOHNSON BEFORE WITH THE EASEMENT. AND THE WAY THAT THE EASEMENT IS AS IT MAKES THE RIGHT TURN IT ONLY COMES INTO PLAY WITH THE WAWA EXISTS. NOT IN FRONT OF THE OLD BAIT LESS BUILDING ITSELF. SO RE THERE ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE? I HAVE IT HIM NEXT TO ME HE CAN ANSWER ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE THAT RELATES THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT. THANK YOU.

>> DO YOU WANT AS YOUR QUESTION NOW?

>> CAN YOU GUESS WHAT MY QUESTION IS GOING TO BE?

>> ABOUT SECURITY? DO YOU WANT TO SAY MY NAME TO

GET MY NAME IS SAD CASE IN. >> WAS BORN AND AGAIN I SAW YOU.

>> OKAY. SO WE WILL HAVE SECURITY BEFORE SUNDOWN ALL THE WAY TO A TIME OF CLOSE MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY THROUGH TIME OF CLOSE. TO THE LAST EMPLOYEE LEAVES.

AND THEN ON THE WEEKENDS UNTIL TIME OF CLOSE AND TO THE LAST EMPLOYEE LEAVES. AS WELL AS SECURITY CAMERAS ALL AROUND THE PREMISES. AND AS MR. SESSIONS POINTED OUT WE DO HAVE SMALL LIGHTS ALL AROUND THE BUILDING.

ON THE VERY TOP WHICH GIVES A NICE BRIGHT SAFETY FOR ALL OF THE CUSTOMERS AND EMPLOYEES. AND REAL NICE FOR THE FEW U.S.

ONE. BECAUSE IT IS A STAND-ALONE BUILDING FACING U.S. ONE. WITH THE DISTANCE FROM THE

GTEWAY PLAZA. >> THE QUESTION WAS GENERATED BECAUSE I SAW WHERE IT ENDED AT 12 MIDNIGHT.

AND I KNOW THAT YOU ARE OPEN TILL TWO.

SO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT GAP. YOU SAID THAT WAS A MISPRINT.

>> YES THAT WAS A TYPO. >> ALREADY ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

>> YES ONE QUESTION. YOU JUST MENTIONED IT ACTUALLY.

IT IS CLOSE U.S. ONE. AND WHEN YOU COME OFF OF U.S.

ONE I BELIEVE AND IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY THERE IS AN IMMEDIATE RIGHT HAND TURN INTO THE PARCEL. IS THAT ACCURATE WHEN YOU COME

OFF U.S. ONE? >> SO THE PARCEL WILL BE RIGHT AS YOU'RE TURNING ON YOUR RIGHT HAND SIDE.

IT'S A STRAIGHT PATH, TO THE GATEWAY PLAZA WITH AN EMPTY PARK

LIGHT TO THE LAST WAWA IS GOING. >> DO YOU ANTICIPATE CONCERNS WITH TRAFFIC GENERATION WITH HOW MANY CUSTOMERS THAT YOU HAVE COMING AND GOING WITH ANY BACKING UP TRAFFIC COMING INTO OR OUT OF YOUR FACILITY? DO YOU ANTICIPATE ANY CARS STACKING JUST WAITING TO COME IN A WAY TO GET OUT?

>> I DON'T ANTICIPATE IT BECAUSE ALREADY AS WELL, IT IS LIKE HOW

[01:30:02]

WHERE PEOPLE ARE COMING FROM THE OTHER SIDE THEY WILL USE

DIFFERENT ENTRANCES. >> GOOD POINTS, THERE IS A LOT OF HISTORY THERE. WHY THE DRIVEWAYS WERE CONNECTED. FORM A COMMISSIONER SESSIONS OR KNOWS WHAT IS HAPPENING ON U.S. ONE.

POPULATION IS GROWING U.S. ONE IS STARTING TO EXPERIENCE SOME DIFFICULTY WITH TRAFFIC STACKING AND FOLKS COMING AND GOING.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAD A REAL CONVERSATION WITH THAT. THAT IS NOT GOING TO BE AN ISSUE COMING OFF OF U.S. ONE WHERE THERE MIGHT BE A BACKUP PER SE.

BECAUSE IN THE 80S, WHEN THIS WAS DESIGNED AND BUILT, JUST BY THE WAY. IF YOU WERE REALLY YOUNG RIGHT.

SO, I LIKE TO ALWAYS POKE FUN ABOUT THAT STUFF.

BUT I'M OLD NOW AND YOU ARE WAY YOUNGER THAN I.

THAT WAS A GOOD IDEA FOR AN ENTRANCE POINT TO THE PAYLESS SHOES. TODAY I AM NOT SURE IT'S A GOOD IDEA FOR THE DRIVEWAY I'M NOT SAYING THEM UP HAVE TO BE AWARE AND CAUTIOUS OF SOMETHING THAT WAS BUILT IN THE 80S WHEN THERE WAS A HUNDRED THOUSAND LESS PEOPLE, 15,000 LESS PEOPLE IN FORT PIERCE. MAYBE EVEN MORE.

SO I HESITATE A LITTLE BIT I'M NOT SAYING I CAN SAY NO FULLY

ABOUT THE DRIVEWAY. >> THERE IS A ANOTHER DRIVEWAY NORTH OF US AND IT IS ONLY MA MAYBE.

JAKE TEND TO HAVE GOOD ACTION TO PROP THEM.

>> YES THERE ARE TOO BIG ENTRANCES GOING TO THAT DRIVEWAY THAT THERE WERE TWO BIG ENTRANCES.

>> JUST THINGS FOR STAFF TO CONSIDER AND LOOKING AT THIS.

IT IS UNIQUE YOU ARE NEAR U.S. ONE.

TOTALLY DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT IN 2021 VERSUS 1985.

>> I UNDERSTAND. THEY DO USE THAT SAME INTEREST GOING TO THE BANKS AS WELL AND I'LL THINK THAT IS CAUSING AN ISSUE. BECAUSE THERE IS A PNC BANK RIGHT NEXT TO US RIGHT IN BETWEEN US AND WHERE WAWA IS

GOING TO BE AN SEACOAST. >> A LITTLE FATHER TO THE SOUTH

BUT YES. >> PNC IS RIGHT THERE.

>> OKAY THAT IS ALL I HAD THANK YOU.

>> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? >> I DON'T HAVE A QUESTION FOR

ANYTHING. >> OKAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WE'LL SEE IF THERE IS ANY ONE ELSE WISHING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE? PLEASE COME FORWARD.

ANYONE ELSE? ALREADY, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC

HEARING. >> JUST A QUICK QUESTION AND IS BASED OFFER COMMISSION JEREMIAH JOHNSON ANSWERED.

RIGHT TURNS ARE PRETTY EASY. WE HAVE ANY TYPE OF TRAFFIC CONTROL FOR A LEFT TURN OUT OF THAT PARTICULAR PARCEL TRYING TO

HID LEFT AND HEAD NORTH. >> YES, I SEE THE EASEMENT.

>> I'M CONCERNED WITH THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC THAT IS COMING TO THE PLAZA. WITH ALL THE STUFF AROUND IT.

WITH ALL THE STUFF WE HAVE LOOKED AT.

THERE MAY BE SOMETHING THAT IS IN BETWEEN THAT AND I THINK IT IS ONE THAT IS THE APPLICANT MENTIONED.

TO THE NORTH OF THAT AS WELL. THERE WAS A TRAFFIC LIGHT IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN. SO, I AM SEEING SOME THINGS AT THAT WAS BROUGHT UP BUT IT WAS MENTIONED ABOUT LEFT TURNS.

AND MAKING THAT BOTTLENECKING. ARE THERE ANY ISSUES THEY HAD TO CROSS TWO LANES AND THEN GETTING INTO A LANE AND TURN RIGHT?

SO. >> IF THAT MAY BE SOMETHING WE SHOULD LOOK AT. ESPECIALLY AS A SITE.

IS IT ESPECIALLY AS IT CONTINUES TO DEVELOP.

AS MR. MA REPORTED OUT TO POTENTIAL OCCUPANTS THAT ARE COMING IN. AND THAT MAY TRIGGER THEY MADE TO TAKE A LOOK AT UP. I KNOW THIS I DID HAVE BIG PROJECTS. END USERS THERE.

SO WE WOULD HAVE TO LOOK AT THE TRAFFIC IMPACTS AND HOW IT IS FASTED FOR TRAFFIC. AND HOW THE IMPACTS ARE IN THAT INCREASE. BUT DEFINITELY WEEK THAT ASCENT WAS TO TAKE A LOOK AT. BECAUSE TIME IS DIFFERENT NOW.

AT AN OCCUPIED TRUNK JUST MAKE AN OCCUPIED SHOPPING CENTER.

>> THAT IS THAT TOO LITTLE ALCOVES THAT COME OUT OF THERE THAT CONCERNS ME. THE REST IS MUCH YOU CAN MAKE A TERM BECAUSE OF THE BARRIER THAT IS AT VIRGINIA.

BUT THERE ARE TWO OF THE PULSES BETWEEN THE NORTH AND SOUTH THAT MAZE POSE A LITTLE CONCERNED. GOING FORWARD.

>> YES, SIR. >> IF I CAN BUILD ON THAT.

IF THERE IS A MEDIAN ON U.S. ONE I THINK DOES NOT SAY NO LEFT TURN OUT OF THAT TRAP. SO THAT WAS THE REASON FOR THAT DEVELOPMENT TO THE OWNER TO PUT THE SIGNAL TO THE NORTH.

I AM SURE I REMEMBER THAT. BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT SOUTHBOUND U.S. ONE I BELIEVE AS A LEFT-HAND TURN LANE TO GO INTO

[01:35:01]

RIGHT IN ITS OWN. THERE IS NO LEFT-HAND TURN.

>> I SEE WE HAVE MR. MOWRY WHO IS ANXIOUS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS. WOULD YOU LIKE TO FINISH?

>> CLOSE A PUBLIC HEARING WOULD HAVE TO REOPEN IT.

>> WOULD HAVE TO REOPEN IT. >> THE OTHER THING I THING I LIKE TO RENT DRIVEWAY IS IN LINE WITH THE WAWA DRIVEWAY I DO REMEMBER THE APPLICATION I CAME THROUGH.

AND I WENT BACK TO MR. MOWRY'S PRESENTATION.

I THINK HE DEPICTED WHAT I REMEMBER THE DRIVEWAY BEING AT THE WAWA APPLICATION. TYPICALLY, WHEN YOU LAY OUT THESE CLASSES. YOU LIKE TO LINE THOSE YOU LIKE TO GET THAT OFF U.S. ONE SO YOU CAN MAKE A DECISION ONCE YOU COME OFF OF U.S. ONE. DO NOT STOP AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN PERSON BEHIND YOU IS LIKE 0 MY GOODNESS THIS PERSON JUST STOP BECAUSE THEY ARE TRYING TO DECIDE DO I GO STRAIGHT OR DO I GO I LEFT OR RIGHT. THAT IS WHY I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE DRIVEWAY ON THE EXISTING PARCEL.

I HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF CONCERN THERE.

BECAUSE IT IS SO CLOSE IT LITERALLY IS WITHIN 20 FEET OF PROBABLY THE PROPERTY LINE. WHEN YOU GET IN THERE.

I DID NOT SCALE IT I AM JUST USING THE PARKING DEPTH TO GAUGE THE DISTANCE. SO IT IS SOMETHING THAT I BROUGHT UP AND I BROUGHT UP TO THE APPLICANT.

THEY DID TALK ABOUT IT AND THEY DID TESTIFY TO THE FACT THAT THAT THEY DON'T ANTICIPATE THEIR PATRONS TO CREATE A STACKING CONDITION. BUT, SHOULD WE ANTICIPATE THAT AS THIS PLAZA GETS BUSIER. HERE IS A GOOD AERIAL VIEW OF IT. YOU KNOW MAYBE WE DO NEED TO OPEN UP A PUBLIC HEARING AND TALK TO OUR CITY ENGINEER TO S SEE. FROM A PLANNING PERSPECTIVE OR AN ENGINEERING PERSPECTIVE IS THAT SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO ALLOW? BECAUSE THIS PARCEL, IF YOU WERE TO PULL THAT PICTURE DOWN A LITTLE BIT IF YOU COULD GO THE OTHER DIRECTION. NOPE.

PUT DOWN. DO YOU GO.

THAT IS THE PARCEL WITH THE WHITE ROOF CORRECT?

>> YES. >> OKAY SO THERE'S TWO DRIVEWAYS TO THE NORTH. THERE IS ONE OF THE WEST SIDE AND ONE OF THE NORTH SIDE ALSO. YOU KNOW I DON'T WANT TO RESPECT THEM AND THE PARCEL IS OWNED BY THOSE FOLKS IN THE COMING UP WITH AN APPLICATION. THEY HAVE GOOD ACCESS THEY HAVE THREE POINTS OF ENTRY RIGHT NOW. AND EXIT.

BUT IF WE TRY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE SAFETY WISE WITH THAT SEVEN DRIVE. SO.

THAT IS MY DISCUSSION. >> WELL I THINK STAFF SAID THAT WE WOULD BE LOOKING AT THAT IN THE FUTURE.

WHAT I, AND WRESTLING WITH NOW IS THAT WE HAVE SOMEBODY WHO WANTS TO CONTRIBUTE SOMETHING IS THE COMMISSION OPEN TO OPEN THE

PUBLIC HEARING AGAIN? >> I AM BECAUSE WE MIGHT WANT TO HEAR THE CITY ENGINEER FEES AROUND IT.

>> SO I AM REOPENING THE PUBLIC AIRING.

MR. MOWRY YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY.

>> THANK YOU MADAM ERIC, I JUST WANT TO ADD CLARITY TO THIS POINT BECAUSE COMMISSIONER JOHNSON IS ON TO SOME SALIENT

POINTS HERE. >> AND BECAUSE STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD. TODD MARGUERITE WITH RED TAIL LOCATED IN THE GALLERIA BUI BUILDING.

>> SO LOOKING AT THIS AREA ONE THING YOU SHOULD KNOW, AS COMMISSIONER JOHNSON MENTION. WE HAVE THE WAWA THAT IS COMING IN. AS A RESULT THE DOT HAS NARROWED THAT DRIVEWAY. SO THE DRIVEWAY THAT WE SEE TODAY EXITING ONTO U.S. ONE HAS NOW BEEN NARROWED.

THEIR POINT OF ACCESS IS ALSO BEEN PUSHED TO THE WEST.

SO, IF I COULD BORROW THE REMOTE JUST TO USE SO WE COULD SEE THE MOUSE MOVE AS I TOUCH ON HERE. THANK YOU.

SO WHAT YOU WILL SEE, IS THIS ENTRANCE HERE, IS NOW GOING TO BE NARROWED AND THEIR POINT OF ACCESS IS BEEN PUSHED UP HERE.

>> THEY BEING? >> THEY BEING WAWA.

BECAUSE THEY WERE LOOKING TO COME AND DO SOMETHING HERE.

DUE TO STAFFING CONCERNS HAD THINGS READDRESSED.

IN ADDITION, WHEN YOU COME FROM THE SOUTH, THERE USED TO BE A EAST WEST FLOW WITH AN ACCESS POINT ONTO U.S. ONE HERE.

THE GATEWAY PLAZA WENT AHEAD AND CLOSE THIS PRIOR TO PUTTING THE BRUSH SHELTER. SO NOW THIS HAS BEEN LANDSCAPED AND HAS BEEN CLOSED. AND NOW AS PART OF THE IMPROVEMENTS GOING ON WITH WAWA THIS IS ALSO BEING CLOSED.

SO THIS WILL NO LONGER BE A CONNECTIVITY NORTH AND SOUTH.

SO WITH THE WAWA TRAFFIC THERE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO COME OUT AND KICK YOU OUT HERE. ALL THE TRAFFIC IS BEING PUSHED OUT EITHER AT THIS POINT OR THEY WOULD CONTINUE TO THE CENTER AND IT WOULD COME OUT ON VIRGINIA. ON THE SELL SIDE.

[01:40:03]

THE ONE THAT REMAINS USED TO BE CONNECTED TO THE BACK OF THE CENTER. SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT CONNECTIVITY, WE TALK ABOUT THAT WAS ELIMINATED BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY CONCERNS THE DOT HAD T THAT.

OPEN OWES TO US AT THE TIME THE TRUCK DEALERSHIP ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE ROAD THEY MANAGED TO GET A RIGHT TURN LANE SO WOULD ALLOW THIS TRAFFIC THE DOT WAS CONCERNED ABOUT TRAVEL.

SO THEY DO HAVE A MEDIAN AND PLACE SO NO ONE CAN COME ACROSS ANY OF THOSE POINTS. YOU DO HAVE A LEFT TURN LANE GETTING INTO THE PLAZA. ANOTHER POINT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT HERE WHERE'S ACTUALLY THEY HAVE A PEANUT.

THAT'S WHAT THE DOT CALLS A PEANUT.

AND THIS THEN ALLOWS THE SAFE MOVEMENT OF TRAFFIC ON ALLOW TO TENNESSEE. AND THAT'S WHY THE DOT TREATED THIS AND IT ALLOWS ONLY THE LEFT TURN MOVEMENTS GOING INTO THE PLAZA HERE. THIS IS ONE THAT HAS NOT BEEN DISCUSSED. TO MY KNOWLEDGE BY THE DOT.

OR BY ENGINEERING STEP. BUT IN TERMS OF NEW IMPROVEMENTS WITH THE WAWA HAS. THEY DID PUSH AND HAVE THEIR DRIVE CONNECTION TO THIS POINT. AND ALL THIS IS GOING TO BE LANSING COMING UP ON THIS POINT IT JUST FOR CLARIFICATION

PURPOSES. >> OKAY.

THANK YOU FOR THAT. SO I GUESS FROM A PLANNING PERSPECTIVE MR. MOWRY IS A TYPICAL FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE THAT YOU WOULD ALLOW THE DRIVEWAYS IN THE DEVELOPMENT SO THAT YOU HAVE MORE CONTINUITY OF VEHICLE MOVEMENT.

PRETEND LIKE THERE'S NO BUILDINGS ARE.

IS IT NORMAL TO ALIGN THE DRIVEWAYS FOR MORE CONTINUITY?

>> FAIR QUESTION. AGAIN I WANT TO STATE THIS ASPECT. IT IS VERY COMMON TO HAVE WHAT WE CALL A RELEVANT SERVICE DRIVES WITHIN A SHOPPING PLAZA.

SO THIS AT ONE POINT BECAME A PARALLEL SERVICE DRIVE.

BECAUSE IT ALLOWS CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN PARSONS.

HOWEVER THE PLAZA DOES HAVE A MAIN NORTH-SOUTH PAROL SERVICE TRY. AS PART OF WAWA'S PLANS, THIS IS GOING TO BE IMPROVED AND EXTENDED AROUND THIS POINT.

SO THEY'LL BE SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENTS THAT YOU WILL SEE WITH THIS INTERSECTION HERE. AS WELL AS WAWA'S PLANS WITHOUT LANDSCAPE PERIMETER ISLAND ALL ON THIS WEBSITE COMING AROUND ALONG WITH THEIR OPENING. FOR STACKING PURPOSES THERE IS NOT A PROJECT THAT WE CAN SUBMIT TODAY EITHER THROUGH THE CITY OR THROUGH THE COUNTY THAT WOULD NOT HAVE TO SHOW STACKING AREAS AND AS A RESULT OF THE STACKING AREAS WE ALWAYS HAVE TO PROVIDE FOR SAFE STACKING WITH NO DRIVEWAY CONNECTIONS INTO A STACKING LANE. SO WHATEVER THAT DISTANCE IS IN STAFF RECOMMENDS. WHICH IS GENERALLY 100 FEET.

WE HAVE TO PROVIDE FOR THE STACKING AREA.

UNENCUMBERED BY POINTS OF ACCESS.

UNLESS, IT IS IT INGRESS. IN THIS CASE THEY WOULD ALLOW INGRESS THEY WOULD NOT ALLOW EGRESS OUT OF THE AREA.

>> OKAY THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

>> MATTA MAYOR I SUGGEST THAT WE ALLOW THE APPLICANT TO HAVE THE FINAL WORD SINCE WE REOPENED IF THEY WANT TO.

>> ABSOLUTELY. DO YOU WANT TO CARE, THE FINAL WORD. BEFORE THE APPLICANT DOES ANYBODY WANT TO SPEAK ON THIS ISSUE BEFORE THE APPLICANT SINCE

WE REOPENED. >> I HAVE A QUESTION FOR STAFF

WHENEVER. >> I WILL.THIS OUT WITH REGARDS TO QUESTION. IN LIGHT OF A MEDIUM BE IN THERE IT'S GOING TO BE DIFFICULT TO MAKE A LEFT TURN.

AND THAT WAS POINTED OUT EARLIER THAT THERE IS A MEDIUM THERE.

FOR PURPOSE OF MAKING A LEFT TURN.

SO WILL BE SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT. IF NOT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DO.

AGAIN, THIS WAS A PRE-EXISTING BUSINESS IN THE PAST.

THIS IS NOT NEW CONSTRUCTION TO SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN GOING ALONG NOW FOR YEARS NOW. IT TURNS OF THE TRAFFIC FLOW.

AND, THE INLETS AND OUTLETS OF THE BUSINESES OF THAT AREA.

ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS IS THAT PARKING LOT TO SOME DEGREE IT HAS BEEN AS A HIGHWAY. AND NOW WE GOING TO PUT BUSINESSES IN THE ACT TO MAKE A PARKING LOT.

AND CERTAINLY WITH THE KMART SHOPPING PLAZA ALONG WITH THE BUSINESSES IN THE WAWA THE ARCADE AND THE BURGER KING AND

[01:45:05]

MEDIUM THERE. IN MY OPINION AS FAR AS APPLICANT CONCERNED IT WOULD BE A PROBLEM IN TERMS OF LEFT TURN.

>> YES THANK YOU 25. >> I GO THERE DAILY TO CHECK UP ON THE BUILDING. YOU CAN ONLY MAKE A LEFT TURN GOING NORTH ON U.S. ONE YOU CANNOT MAKE A LEFT TURN GOING OUT. YOU CANNOT STOP THE TRAFFIC BACKING UP ONLY AN EXIT ON RIGHT TURN.

KEEPING IT NICE AND SAFE. A COMMUNITY LESS ACCIDENTS.

MEMORY. SO FOR THE TEAM, WHICH WE ARE CLOSE TO CLOSING AT ENTRANCE OR WOULD YOU BE A CLOSED DOOR IN FAVOR OF MAKING THAT IN IN ONLY. SO YOU WOULD HAVE TO DO A LITTLE CONSTRUCTION WORK TO MAKE IT IN IN ONLY NOT AN EXIT POINT.

>> WOULD BE OPPOSED JUST TO THE FACT THAT IT IS A BUILDING ALREADY THERE. I'M NOT DOING THE CONSTRUCTION THE BUSINESS IS ALWAYS BEEN THERE.

AND THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS BEFORE THE PASS.

SO I DON'T SEE WHY I WOULD HAVE TO GO AHEAD AS IF ANYBODY WAS TO GO THERE. DO ANY NEW CONSTRUCTION ON THE ACTUAL ENDS AND OUTS OF THE ENTRANCE AND EXIT OF THE

PARKING. >> OKAY.

>> OKAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

ALREADY, WE ARE CLOSING THE PUBLIC HEARING NOW.

AND AGAIN, AND WHAT IS THE PLEASURE OF THE COMMISSION?

>> MADAM MAYOR JUST GOING BACK TO THAT ENTRANCE.

I AM OKAY WITH THE APPLICATION EXCEPT FOR THAT FACT.

I SEE THE GROWTH OF THE PROJECT I AM SORRY THE PLAZA.

OVER TIME BECOMING AN ISSUE. I DO WANT TO CLOSE MY EYES TODAY. WAWA IS TALKING ABOUT COMING UNDER CONSTRUCTION IN MAY. WHILE IT IS VERY BUSY.

WE ALL KNOW WHAT WAWA'S BUSINESS PLAN LOOKS LIKE.

AND THIS PLAZA, IF IT WERE TO BE APPROVED TODAY.

THE DOT OR THE CITY ENGINEER I DO BELIEVE THAT WE WILL WOULD ALLOW THAT. IN LIGHT OF THAT FACT.

THE ALLOW ENTRANCE AND EXIT POINT.

IT WOULD BE A THING. THAT IS AN OUT PARCEL.

HERE IS THE CONDITION THAT IT CREATES.

WHAT IF THE STACKING OF TRAFFIC COMING TO U.S. ONE TRYING TO GO SOUTHBOUND. SOMEBODY EXITING THIS PARCEL TRY TO MAKE A RIGHT-HAND TURN. AS SOON AS THEY NEGOTIATE AND I COME OUT AND THE TRAFFIC STOPS AGAIN NOW THEY ARE IN TREATMENT IMPEDING TRAFFIC COMING INTO AND ON THE DRIVEWAY OF FROM U.S.

ONE. THAT NOW CREATES A PROBLEM ON U.S. 190 OF TRAFFIC STACKING ON U.S. ONE.

WE KNOW WHAT THAT IS SUCH A WEBSITE.

IF YOU GO AT 8:00 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING OR FIVE IN THE AFTERNOON, YOU KNOW THIS IS NOTHING NEW TRAFFIC BACKS UP FROM VIRGINIA AVENUE TO THE NORTH.

IF THE LIGHT IS RED. I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA WHEN WE HEARD THE ARE MR. MARI TESTIFY.

OR GIVE HIS EXPERIENCE ON BUT WAS ALLOWABLE WINDOW WHILE WALKING FORWARD. THIS CONDITION OF THAT DRIVEWAY COULD BE IN INGRESS ONLY. AND ONLY.

WHICH DOES CREATE SOME MORE WORK FOR THE APPLICANT IT DOES.

IT DOES CREATE A LANDSCAPE THAT JUST CAN'T BE PAVEMENT MARKINGS.

I DON'T THINK IT WOULD I DON'T THINK IT WOULD THE PUBLIC WOULD FOLLOW THE PAVEMENT MARKING. IF YOU PAINT OF THE SCRIBES AND THE GROUND DON'T TURN LEFT THERE.

TYPICALLY IT'S CREATED WITH CODE WITH A CURB AND LANDSCAPING.

AND THEN IT IS SHOWN TO BE AN AND ONLY.

THE OTHER OPTION I THINK IS IN THE APPLICANT IS A POSTED AT CLOSING ON FINANCIALS. SO I MEAN IS THERE ANYONE ELSE THAT HAS AN OPINION ON THAT FACTOR THERE?

>> SO IN YOUR IN YOUR ANALYSIS TO DO ARE YOU INCLUDING WHAT THE

IMPACT IS FROM WAWA? >> WHILE THAT IS THE GREATEST

CONCERN THAT I HAVE. >> WAWA IS NOT.

SO WHAT I'M SAYING IS THAT THIS SHOULD PROBABLY DISCUSSED I THINK AND WAWA COMES THERE AND SAYS OKAY NOW THAT YOU'RE THERE THIS IS WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO DO.

BECAUSE THERE WILL BE AN IMPACT. I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE A HARD TIME PUTTING THAT BIRDING ON THE ARCADE PEOPLE RIGHT HERE.

[01:50:01]

BUT WHY THEM? AND NOT THE REAL IMPACT WHICH WOULD BE WAWA WE TAKE A LOOK THAT TRAFFIC PATTERNS AND NEEDS.

IN CONSTANT FLOW OF CARS COMING IN-AND-OUT.

BECAUSE OF ZACH WITH THEIR BUSINESSES.

>> MAYBE IS NOT WAWA BABY IS THERE'S FIVE PEOPLE VISIT THE PLAZA BECAUSE THEY WENT TO PIZZA CURRENTLY TODAY AND THEY STACKED IN THE STACKING LINE AND SOMEONE TRIED TO MAKE A LEFT-HAND TURN LEAVING THE NEW APPLICATION THAT WE LOOKING AT TONIGHT, AND THEY COME IN AND THEY THEY ENCOUNTER THE TRAFFIC AND THEY MAKE A LEFT-HAND TURN MOVEMENT LEAVING THEIR BLOCKING NOW THE PLATH WAY

TO U.S. ONE. >> I GET IT.

I REALLY DO. >> IS NOT JUST WHILE I COULD

HAPPEN TODAY. >> I UNDERSTAND THAT, I'M JUST HAVING A LITTLE BIT. AND I AGREE WITH YOU TO THAT POINT. I AM JUST NOT I'M JUST NOT THERE ABOUT TRIGGERING ON THIS APPLICATION.

>> WHEN IS A TRIGGERED? >> MR. MIMS.

>> MADAM MAYOR CITY COMMISSION. WE ARE RUNNING INTO A MYRIAD OF DIFFERENT ISSUES. WE ARE SPEAKING ABOUT ONE A CONDITIONAL USE WITHOUT NEW CONSTRUCTION WITH A RETAIL BUSINESS TO OCCUPY AN EXISTING STRUCTURE IN EXISTING PARKING LOT. HOWEVER, WE ARE ALSO TALKING ABOUT A PREAPPROVED SITE PLAN WAWA, THAT WAS APPROVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION. SO THE TRAFFIC GENERATION SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT THE NEW CONDITIONAL USE THAT WE TALK ABOUT TODAY. AND, WE ALSO TALKING ABOUT AN UPCOMING CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BY THE STATE OF FLORIDA.

FOR A RIGHT TURN LANE THAT IS GOING TO BE PLACED IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY AS WELL. SO AS YOU TO MAKE THE DETERMINATION YOU SHOULD THINK ABOUT ALL OF THESE FACTORS IN MAKING YOUR FINAL JUDGMENT. I'M NOT TRYING TO CONFUSE ANYBODY. I'M SORRY.

YOU OF ALL OF THESE THINGS THAT ARE COMING UP.

>> I AM WONDERING WHY THIS WASN'T DEALT WITH IN TERMS OF AT

THE PLANNING LEVEL? >> THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING

ABOUT. >>

>> YOU HAVE THREE OF US RIGHT HERE.

IT IS DIFFICULT FOR I MAY, IS DIFFICULT FOR US TO SAY AFTER IT'S ALL BEEN A PROSE. TO RECONSTRUCT ASSAULTING.

THIS NOT A JOB. OUR JOB IS TO LISTEN TO TESTIMONY AND LISTEN THAT WE HAVE STASHED PRESENTATION THAT WE MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION GOING FORWARD.

AND I THINK COMMISSIONER JEREMIAH JOHNSON BROUGHT UP A GREAT POINT. BUT TO BE ABLE TO GO I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION TO MAKE THAT A CONDITION OF THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT.

BASED ON WHAT I'VE HEARD. >> MADAM MAYOR I WOULD ECHO THAT SAME THING. I THINK THE ILLUSTRATION THAT WAS SHOWN AMIDST AGO PULLED UP A GOOGLE MAP.

MY ORIGINAL QUESTION WAS LINING UP WITH THAT.

I COULDN'T RECALL IF THERE WAS A CENTER OUTLINE OR SOMETHING THAT CLARIFIED FOR ME. BUT I THINK I SHARE A SIMILAR CONCERN AS COMMISSIONER CORONA BELIEVE THAT OR NOT.

THAT, I WOULD HOPE I AM NOT A PLANNER.

I JUST GO BY WHAT I SEE. AND REALISTIC LOGISTIC AND MOVING PEOPLE AROUND. AT THIS POINT, I WOULD KINDA FIND IT UNFAIR TO THE CANDIDATE. I AM ASKED TO JUDGE BASED AS A CAUSE A JUDICIAL BASIS ON FACTS. AND THE FACTS ARE WHAT THEY ARE RIGHT NOW. IT IS NO NEW CONSTRUCTION OR SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN THERE. I JUST THINK AND NOTE THAT AS WE GROW AS A CITY WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS GOING FORWARD.

AND I WOULD HOPE THAT STAFF AND MR. MIMS SHE WOULD COME BACK WITH SOME SOLUTIONS TO HELP US IN THE NEAR FUTURE AS HE SINGS OF ALL GOING FORWARD SIR. THANK YOU.

>> MADAM MAYOR? >> YES, SIR.

>> MR. GOEBEL WAS CONTEMPLATED OR DISCUSSED A STAFF LEVEL? WITH ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE REGRESS.

>> NO. >> IF I MAY, THIS ITEM TO GO BEFORE WE DISTRIBUTED AT PRC SO BOTH INTERNAL.

AND OUR COUNTY WOULD HAVE REVIEWED THIS AS WELL.

IT MAY HAVE BEEN AN OVERSIGHT, BEING THAT IT IS NO NEW CONSTRUCTION. AND IT WAS PAYLESS AND IT WAS A RETAIL ESTABLISHMENT THAT HAD TRAFFIC GENERATION WELLS ALREADY THROUGH. YOU KNOW, I AGREE WITH MR. JOHNSON THAT WE SHOULD RE-EXAMINE AND TAKE A LOOK AT ALL THE INTERNAL CIRCULATION IN THERE.

AND THE IMPACTS ON TO VIRGINIA AND U.S. ONE.

>> THANK YOU STAFF ARE DOING THAT I HESITATED EARLIER TO TALK

[01:55:03]

YOU KNOW, I THINK IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

AND SO THERE'S JUST POTENTIAL TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE RIGHT NOW.

I DON'T WANT TO SAY ANY THING GO SIDEWAYS.

I WANT TO MOVE FORWARD. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TRIGGERS THAT DIFFERENCE. WHEN DOES A TRIGGER? IS A TODAY OR A DIFFERENT DATE? WHEN THAT IS CHANGE.

I SAID ON I AM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE TRANSPORTATION OF THE BOARD.

I'M SUPPOSED TO SIT UP HERE IS A QUASIJUDICIAL MEMBER.

I KNOW WHAT I KNOW AND WHAT I KNOW.

NOT EVERYONE IN THE ROOM BUT EVERYONE CAN TALK ABOUT U.S. ONE ABOUT HARD FACTS AND WHAT HAPPENS AT THAT INTERSECTION.

SO, I DON'T KNOW THERE'S WHERE I AM.

>> THAT IS A GOOD POINT. YOU HAVE THAT ABILITY THIS IS PART OF WHAT YOU DO. YOUR DAY JOB AND EVERYTHING ELSE LIKE THAT. TO TAKE A LOOK AT THAT TYPE OF THING. THE REST OF US MAY NOT HAVE THAT. WILL DEPEND ON THE INFORMATION WE GET FROM STAFF. AND GO THROUGH THAT PROCESS.

WE'VE HAD TECHNICAL REVIEW AND WE HAD EVERYBODY TAKE A LOOK AT THIS. I HAVE EVEN WATCHED TWO PLUS HOURS OF PLANNING BOARD ON FEBRUARY THE NINTH.

AND IT WAS JUST NOT EVER TALKED ABOUT IN THAT FASHION.

YOU BRING UP A GREAT.AND TACKLE THAT ONE AS IT IS.

BUT I DON'T THINK I WANT TO STOP THIS APPLICANT FROM MOVING FORWARD. BASED ON THAT.

BECAUSE REALLY I DON'T HAVE ANY COMPETENT SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE OF THAN THE TRUST I HAVE IN COMMISSIONER JOHNSON TO KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT. OTHER THAN THAT, WE DON'T REALLY HAVE, BUT I DON'T HAVE THE INFORMATION IN FRONT OF ME THAT I CAN SIT THERE AND SAY YOU KNOW I'VE COME TO A CONCLUSION BASED ON THE INFORMATION. TO GO FORWARD I DON'T HAVE IT.

SO I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE I GUESS.

YOU'RE PROBABLY VERY RIGHT. I KNOW I HAD ON I TOLD YOU SO WHEN THIS IS ALL OVER WITH. BUT WE HAVE TO FOLLOW PROCESS AND THE PROCESS IS NOT THERE FOR ME.

>> MR. MIMS. >> I'LL JUST SAY ONE MORE THING ALL OVER THAT WILL CONFUSE ANYBODY ANY FURTHER IF IT GIVES YOU A LEVEL OF COMFORT WHEN THE WAWA SITE PLAN CAME IN THERE WAS AN EXISTING BUSINESS FOR THAT LOCATION.

THE EXISTING GENERATED TRAFFIC. SO WHEN THE WAWA SITE PLAN WAS PRESENTED TO YOU AT THAT TIME WITH THIS PARTICULAR BUSINESS WITH THIS PARTICULAR CONFIGURATION.

SO EVIDENTLY IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH THEN.

NOW UNLESS THERE IS SOMETHING SUBSTANTIVE THAT YOU CAN IDENTIFY WHY WOULD YOU CHANGE IT? SO THAT'S HOW WE WE ARE REALLY TRYING TO GIVE YOU SOME SORT OF COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS TO MAKE A DECISION.

>> MATTER MAYOR I AGREE WITH MR. HE IDENTIFIED A VERY WELL.

THIS SUBSTANCE WOULD'VE BEEN ON THE RECORD DURING THE WALL APPLICATION QUITE FRANKLY. I'D ALSO LIKE TO MENTION IS AN OUT PARCEL, THEY HAVE TO HAVE CROSS ACCESS AGREEMENTS WITH THE MAIN PARCEL. AND YOU CAN SEE ON THE SITE HERE THAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT THERE IS AT LEAST WON AND MAYBE TWO THAT ARE GOING TO CONTINUE. THOSE CROSS ESSEX AGREEMENTS IN THE PLAZA DEVELOPS OF SHOW WILL BE SUBJECT TO NEGOTIATION AMONG ALL OF THE APOSTLES. NOBODY WANTS TO BE RESPONSIBLE ENTITY IF IT BECOMES OF A MAJOR TRAFFIC HAZARD.

BECAUSE THEY WILL BE THE ONES ANSWERING THE LAWYERS PHONE CALLS WHEN THERE'S MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS HAPPENING.

SWAMPS ARE YOUR MR. MOWRY AND HIS TEAM ARE WELL AWARE OF ALL OF THIS. AND ON ALL THE APPLICANTS.

AGAIN MR. MANAGEMENT. THE EVIDENCE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE RECORD THAT THE WAWA SITE PLAN APPLICATION.

>> I AM READY FOR A MOTION. >> MADAM MAYOR I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THIS ITEM WITH THE SAID CONDITIONS RECOMMENDED BY STEP.

>> SECOND PERIOD. >> MOTION SECOND CULTURAL

[02:00:01]

>> YES, MA'AM. >> OUR FINAL QUASIJUDICIAL HEARING REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF AN APPLICATION FOR CONDITIONAL USE WITH NO CONDITIONAL SUBMITTED BY PROPERTY OWNER AND AG PROPERTIES LLC. AND REPRESENTATIVE.

PETIT WAS SORRY TO OPERATE A RECYCLING FACILITY AT 1121 GEORGIA ROAD IN FORT PIERCE. THE PROPERTY IS ZONED LIGHT

INDUSTRIAL. >> MADAM CLERK HAS A ADVERTISING

PRIORITIES BEEN MET? >> THE ADVERTISING HAS BEEN MET.

>> COMMISSIONERS SEE JOHNSON. NO MA'AM.

>> JAY JOHNSON. >> NO MAN.

>> COMMISSIONER CORONA. >> NO MAN.

>> MAYOR. >> NO MAP.

>> ANYONE WISH TO SWEAR ON THIS ITEM PLEASE RACHEL RAY'S HAND.

DO YOU SWEAR TO SAY THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH

THANK YOU. >> PLEASE PROCEED.

GOOD EVENING MADAM MAYOR AND CONDITIONERS JUDGMENT AND COMMISSIONERS. THIS IS A CONDITIONAL USE FOR ENERGY RECYCLING. THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF ENTERPRISE ROAD AND DIGIORGIO ROAD.

AND THE PROPERTY IS APPROXIMATELY 13.84 ACRES.

IT IS FORMALLY THE SITE OF AN 84 LUMBER COMPANY.

IN TECH LOGIX WHICH IS TECH RENTAL FACILITY.

THE PROPERTY HAS A FUTURE LAND USE AS INDUSTRIAL.

THE SUBJECT PROPERTY HAS A ZONING OF I-1 LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONE. THE SITE PLAN INCLUDES A 42,000 SQUARE-FOOT FACILITY. THE APPLICANT INTENDS OPERATIONS TO BE 7:00 A.M. TO 6:00 P.M. ON MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

WITH EMPLOYEES UP TO 25 TO FULL CAPACITY.

WILL PROVIDE LIVABLE ABOVE AVERAGE WAGES.

STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL FREE CONDITIONS.

NUMBER ONE, PER CITY CODE SECTION 123-6 A REQUIRED LANDSCAPING BOND MUST BE PROVIDED PRIOR TO CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY. NUMBER TWO, ALL TRAFFIC MUST BE UTILIZED TO GEORGIA ROAD AND OLEANDER AVENUE.

IN NUMBER THREE ALL STORAGE MUST BE UNDERCOVER STRUCTURE.

>> ANY QUESTIONS OF STAFF? COMMISSIONER JOHNSON.

>> WOULD YOU DO FIVE -- MIKE WOULD YOU DEFINE STORAGE DID YOU

PUT ON HERE? >> WE ACTUALLY DID THE SITE WITH THE PETITIONER WAS HERE TODAY AND THEY MET WITH JACK ENTERS ALSO. THEY EXPLAINED THAT THE STORAGE OF MATERIALS. THERE IS AN AREA THAT IS EXISTING THAT IS A COVERED STRUCTURE.

AND THE TYPE OF MATERIAL THAT HE WILL BE STORING BECAUSE THIS RECYCLES FOOD PRODUCTS. YOU KNOW LIQUID IN NON- LIQUIDS.

THOSE ITEMS THAT FOR SOME REASON THAT WERE EITHER MISLABELED OR SOME TYPE OF ERROR WON'T ALLOW THE SELLING OF THOSE ITEMS. AND THEY WOULD BE STORED THERE. AND LIKE WHEN WE WENT OUT THEY

WERE WRAPPED TIGHT CONTAINERS. >> RED BULL.

>> AND RED BULL LIKE LIQUID. THEY ARE STORED AND THEN IT GOES TO THE PROCESSING. THEY ARE A MEDIUM.

I WOULD WRITE THAT APPLICANT TO EXPLAIN THE PROCESS.

BUT WE WERE VERY IMPRESSED. VERY CLEAN SITE, HE HAS DONE AN AMAZING JOB CLEANING UP. AND I WOULD LIKE HIM TO EXPLAIN FURTHER THE WHOLE OPERATION. THIS IS VERY INTERESTING.

>> OKAY THANK YOU. AND ONE OF THE QUESTION I HAVE PLEASE. IT IS, THIS PROPERTY ABUTS A RESIDENTIAL TO THE WEST. SO, WHAT KIND OF DISCUSSIONS HAVE YOU HAD WITH THE APPLICANT ABOUT THEIR BUFFER ZONE IN ANYTHING IN BETWEEN PLANTINGS WALLS AND TREES.

WE KIND OF BEFORE RIGHT? RESIDENTIAL NEXT TO INDUSTRIAL LIGHT INDUSTRIAL. SOAP TELL ME THERE.

>> YES, THE APPLICANT WILL BE INSTALLING LANDSCAPING AND CURRENTLY WHERE THE BUILDING IS LOCATED ON THE PROPERTY WHICH IS A PROXIMALLY 13.84 ACRES. TO THE EAST.

THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES ARE AROUND MAYBE A HUNDRED TO 200 YARDS TO THE WEST. AND WE ALSO ASKED THE APPLICANT ABOUT ANY FUMES OR ANYTHING AND WE WERE TOLD KNOW THERE WILL BE NO FUMES. SO, SO IT IS PROCESSING OF

[02:05:01]

LIKE THAT. >> OKAY SO THERE IS A LOADING

AND UNLOADING OPERATION? >> THERE IS A VOTING ON LOW

REPARATION. >> IF I MAY, THERE IS AMPLE ROOM FOR STORAGE INSIDE THE BUILDING. SO ANYTHING OUTSIDE AS TO OUR UNDERSTANDING WAS GOING TO BE TRANSPORTED IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

AND THERE IS A LANDSCAPE PLAN. THAT HE WILL HAVE TO COMPLY WITH AND THERE WILL BE ADDITIONAL BUFFERING WITH ITS MAGNOLIA SQUARE THAT NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE WEST.

THERE IS NO ACCESS INTO THAT THAT'S WHY WHEN WE WENT OUT WITH JACK ENTERS. HE MADE SURE THAT ALL OF THE TRAFFIC FLOW WOULD BE AWAY FROM THAT RESIDENTIAL AREA.

>> IF YOU COULD RECALL FOR STAFF RECOMMENDATION OR OTHER APPLICATIONS OR MAYBE THE APPLICANT CAME FORWARD.

LOADING AND UNLOADING OPERATIONS REQUIRE HEAVIER EQUIPMENT.

TYPICALLY THAT EQUIPMENT BASED ON OSHA REGULATIONS, REQUIRE BACKING ALARMS. WHERE IS THERE ANYTHING CONSIDERED IN DISCUSSION ABOUT THOSE FEATURES.

BECAUSE THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE LESS AUDIBLE OR DIRECTIONALLY AUDIBLE. RIGHT BEHIND THE VEHICLE WITH

ANY DISCUSSIONS THERE? >> IF I MAY MR. MAYOR.

I WOULD PREFER TO THE APPLICANT ON THAT.

HE HAS ALREADY GONE INTO EXPLAINING THE TRAFFIC FLOW AND THE USE OF THE EQUIPMENT THAT WILL BE THERE TO DELIVER.

I WOULD FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE. >> DID YOU DISCUSS HOURS OF

OPERATION? >> YES.

SEVEN 26. >> 7:00 A.M. TO 6:00 P.M.?

>> WEEKENDS? >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OF STAFF? I WOULD LIKE FOR THE APPLICANT TO COME FOR PLEASE.

I THINK I SAW THAT YOU WERE SWORN IN.

STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS AND RECORDS ARE.

>> MY NAME IS. AND ASARI, MY HOME ADDRESS OR

BUSINESS? >> WHATEVER? JUST SO WE CAN FIND YOU WITH WE NEED TO.

>> MADAM MAYOR COMMISSIONERS THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK TO YOU THIS EVENING ABOUT THE CONDITIONAL USE APPLICATION.

I JUST WANT TO COVER THREE POINTS FAIRLY BRIEFLY.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICATION WILL TALK A LITTLE BOW ABOUT A RECYCLING FACILITY AND THEN SPECIFICALLY ABOUT SOME UNIQUE

ASPECTS OF OUR BUSINESS. >> CAN I INTERRUPT YOU FOR JUST ONE SECOND DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OF STAFF?

>> I DO NOT OTHER THAN SAY THANK YOU FOR THE KIND ASSISTANCE

GOING THROUGH THIS PROCESS. >> OKAY SO THANK YOU.

>> SO BRIEFLY WHEN WE LOOKED AT LOCATING THE BUSINESS IN FORT PIERCE. WE DID SUBMIT THE APPLICATIONS.

WE WERE TOLD THAT BEING ZONE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL, OUR APPLICATION IS FOR A FOOD IN RELATED PRODUCTS BUSINESS.

WITH A WASTE RELATED USE. THE FOOD RELATED PART OF THAT, IS BASICALLY ALLOWED WITHIN THE CITY IN THE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONING. THE WASTE RELATED USE IS A CONDITIONAL USE PORTION AND I UNDERSTAND THAT AND WE WENT TO THE PROCESS OF DISCUSSING THAT WITH STAFF.

WHEN I RECEIVE THE NOTICE FOR THIS MEETING I WAS A LITTLE SURPRISED THAT WE WERE NOW OPERATING A RECYCLING FACILITY.

SO I THOUGHT WE'D TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO TALK ABOUT WHAT ITS SYSTEMS SINCE THIS RECYCLING FACILITY DOES.

THERE ARE A COUPLE TYPES RECYCLING FACILITIES.

BASICALLY THEY TAKE MATERIAL WHICH IS POTENTIALLY RECYCLABLE OR REUSABLE. AND THEY ARE COLLECTED FROM HOMES OR BUSINESSES. THEN THEY ARE SORTED AND DISTRIBUTED TO PEOPLE WHO CAN POSSIBLY USE THEM IN THE FUTURE AND TURN THEM INTO OTHER PRODUCTS ET CETERA.

THERE ARE TWO MAIN TYPES OF THESE FACILITIES.

ONE IS A CLEAN RECYCLING FACILITY THAT RECEIVES ONLY RECYCLABLE MATERIAL NO TRASH. AND THE OTHER IF THEY CALL IT A MATERIALS RECOVERY FACILITIES OR SOMETIMES THEY REFER TO IT AS A MIRTH. SO THERE IS A CLEAN MIRTH AND A DIRTY MOVE. A DIRTY MURPH RECEIVES RECYCLABLE MATERIAL MIXED WITH TRASH.

AND HAS TO BE SORTED. EITHER WAY A RECYCLING FACILITY DOES HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT.

RECYCLING MATERIALS REQUIRE LESS MINING OR PRODUCTION OR

[02:10:02]

REDUCES GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND ONE OF THE OTHER IMPORTANT ASPECTS IT KEEPS A LOT OF LOW DENSITY ORGANIC MATERIAL OUT OF LANDFILLS. WHICH IS SOMETHING EVERYBODY IS TRYING TO DO. UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS A RECYCLING FACILITY OPERATED BY ST. LUCIE COUNTY ADJACENT TO THE LANDFILL. IT'S ABOUT FIVE AND HALF MILES FROM WHERE WE ARE. AND IT IS AN OPPRESSIVE FACILITY. I'D LIKE TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT WE DO AND WHY IT IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT.

IT IS A DIFFERENT TYPE OF BUSINESS AND DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. AS IT HAS BEEN MENTIONED IT IS A FREE CONSUMER FOOD AND BEVERAGE RECYCLING BUSINESS.

SO EVERYTHING WE RECEIVE IN THAT IT AUGUST FOR SOME REASON.

I COULD BE EXPIRED, OR MISBRANDED OR MISS PACKAGED OR MISLABELED. SOME RECALL MATERIAL, BUT THE MATERIAL CANNOT BE SOLD. WE RECEIVE MATERIAL FROM FOOD BANKS, WHICH HAS BEEN DONATED AND IS EXPIRED AND CANNOT BE DISTRIBUTED. EVERYTHING WE RECEIVE IN HIS BRAND-NEW SHRINK-WRAPPED ON THE PALLETS.

IN THE ORIGINAL PACKAGING IN THE CARDBOARD BOXES.

WE RECEIVE THIS MATERIAL BY TRACTOR-TRAILER.

UNLOADING IS ACCOMPLISHED BY A FORKLIFT IN THE LOADING BAYS.

MATERIAL GOES INTO THE WAREHOUSE WORD IS INVENTORIED.

BASICALLY STAGE FOR PRODUCTION OR IN OUR CASE D PRODUCTION.

AND WE HAVE A COUPLE OF LARGE PIECES OF EQUIPMENT INSIDE THE BUILDING. WHICH WAS UNJUST WE OPEN THE BOXES, THE MATERIAL GOES INTO A MACHINE AND IT SEPARATES THE CONTENTS FROM THE PACKAGING. THE CONTENTS IF IT'S DRY FOOD, WE SEND OUT TECHNICALLY RECYCLE TO A COMPANY THAT MANUFACTURES CATTLE AND HOG THE BALANCE. IF IT IS ILLIQUID, THERE THERE COULD BE ONE OF SEVERAL DESTINATIONS.

WEISE WILL SEND MATERIAL TO LOCAL COMPOST FACILITIES WE NEED THE MATERIAL. SOME OF THE MATERIAL WILL GO TO A LOCAL WASTEWATER PLANT. TO OFFSET THE PURCHASE OF CARBON OR GLYCERIN TO RUN BETTER. SOME OF THE MATERIAL WILL GO TO AN OLD RELIC DIGESTION WHICH IS WASTE TO ENERGY.

WHICH WAS RECENTLY PROVED LAST YEAR AS A RENEWABLE ENERGY CREDIT. SO THE PROBLEM THAT WE ARE ADDRESSING WITH THIS BUSINESS IS LANDFILL DIVERSION OF MATERIAL WHICH IN THIS CASE IS BRAND-NEW IN THE PACKAGE MATERIAL.

IT INVOLVES AGAIN JUST PRE-CONSUMER FOOD OR BEVERAGE ANYTHING YOU CAN IMAGINE THAT IS A FOOD OR BEVERAGE.

JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE SCOPE OF THAT PROBLEM, AND THE U.S. WE PROBABLY WASTE AN ESTIMATED 40% OF OUR FOOD SUPPLY FROM FARM TO FORK. THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THAT IS OVER $1 TRILLION. AND THAT IS JUST THE ECONOMIC COST NOT TO MENTION THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS.

WE DISPOSE OF OVER 85 MILLION TONS OF FOOD IN THE U.S. ANNUALLY. AND A LOT OF THAT WINDS UP IN LANDFILLS. AND THAT IS THE SINGLE LARGEST COMPONENT OF WHAT GOES INTO SOLID WASTE LANDFILLS.

AND THEREFORE CREATES A LOT OF METHANE OMISSION.

SO THAT IS REALLY THE PROBLEM THAT WE ARE SOLVING.

WE PROVIDE THINK OF IT AS AN END OF THE PRODUCT LIFECYCLE CARE.

FOR A FOOD AND BEVERAGE. WHICH DOESN'T HAVE ANYWHERE ELSE TO GO. SO OF ALL THE MATERIAL THAT WE RECEIVE IN INBOUND AGAIN ANY FOOD ANY BEVERAGE WE TALK ABOUT THE BRIDE.-- WE TALK ON THE DRIVE THROUGH THE GOES OUT TO CATTLE AND HOG FEE. SO WE ARE TURNING SKITTLES INTO PORK AND BEEF KIND OF. THE LIQUIDS EITHER GO TO ENERGY, NEW TRANSFER COMPOST MANUFACTURED SOILS THAT TYPE OF THING. AND OBVIOUSLY THE OTHER COMPONENT OF THIS IS THE CLEAN RECYCLABLES.

AND THIS IS WHERE WE DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM MIRTH.

EVERYTHING WE HAVE IS BRAND-NEW IN THE PACKAGE.

THE COMMODITIES MARKET IS GOOD RIGHT NOW.

CLEAN ALUMINUM AND CLEAN PLASTIC AND CLEAN CARDBOARD CORRUGATED CARDBOARD. THEY ALL HAVE VALUE TO IT.

THE LAST ITEM I LIKE TO SAY LAST AND LEAST.

[02:15:02]

SO AGAIN, WE HAD A FOOD AND RELATED PRODUCTS BUSINESS.

WITH WHAT WE BELIEVE IS THE SMALLEST POSSIBLE WASTE RELATED COMPONENT AND YOU KNOW YOU CALL US A RECYCLING FACILITY I GUESS.

THANK YOU AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS.

>> ALRIGHTY ANY QUESTIONS OF THE APPLICANT COMMISSIONER JOHNSON?

>> THANK YOU FOR DESCRIBING THAT I APPRECIATE IT.

IN THIRD GRADE AT FORT PIERCE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL I WAS TAUGHT TO REDUCE REUSE AND RECYCLE. YOU ARE PART OF THAT AND I APPRECIATE IT. BECAUSE IT STUCK WITH ME EVER SINCE THAT DAY. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR IN GENERAL, WHAT YOU JUST TALKED ABOUT.

40% OF THE LANDFILLS BEING CONSUMED OR ITS INFILL IS THIS TYPE OF PRODUCT. I AM LOOKING AT YOUR SITE PLAN AND I HAVE A LITTLE PICTURE HERE ON THE SCREENER.

IS EVERYTHING OR IS MAJORITY OPERATION GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE LEFT -- TO THE RIGHT WHICH IS THE EASTERN PROPERTY LINE?

>> THAT IS CORRECT. THE TWO LONG BUILDINGS IN THE CENTER INTO IS THE WEST. THOSE OUTDOOR COMPANY STORES AREA. RIGHT NOW WE ARE STORING SOME MATERIAL IN THERE. WHICH IS AGAIN SHRINK-WRAPPED ON PALLETS BRAND-NEW ON CONTAINERS. BECAUSE WE CANNOT PROCESS ANYTHING. ONCE WE ARE ABLE TO PROCESS THE MATERIAL WE WILL MOVE THE REST OF THAT MATERIAL INSIDE AND PROCESS IT AND THE ONLY THING THAT WILL GO OUTSIDE WILL BE THE OUTBOUND I GUESS BALES OF ALUMINUM OR PLASTIC.

AS WE LOAD THOSE ONTO TRUCKS FOR DISTRIBUTION.

YOU HAD MENTIONED THE NOISE BACKUP ALARMS. WE OPERATE SMALL FORKLIFTS UNLOADING TRUCKS.

THE ARE NO FRONT END LOADERS. THERE IS NO OTHER HEAVY EQUIPMENT. THE MACHINERY IS ALL INSIDE.

YOU CAN ACTUALLY CARRY ON A CONVERSATION AT A NORMAL TONE OF VOICE STANDING NEXT TO THE LARGE MACHINE WHEN IT IS THE PACKAGING MATERIAL. UNLESS WE ARE DEEP PACKAGING SKITTLES THAT IS ALMOST LIKE BABIES BOUNCING AROUND.

BUT AGAIN THAT IS INSIDE THE BUILDING.

THAT IS IN THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE BUILDING.

THAT'LL PROCESS THE DRY FOOD. WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER MACHINE IN THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE BUILDING DEDICATED TO THE NEED TO. AS WE RAMP UP PRODUCTION OR AGAIN D PRODUCTION. SO AS A DEEP PACKAGING HAPPENS, OF THESE UNITS SELF-CONTAINED THESE LIQUIDS AND SOLIDS COLLECTED WITHOUT ANY CONTACT TO THE GROUND?

OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT? >> THAT IS CORRECT.

I KNOW I DO WANT TO SAY THIS IS GONNA LOOK LIKE A SURGICAL SUITE. THERE IS A LOT GOING ON.

BUT IT IS A VERY CLEAN FACILITY. EVERYTHING IS ENCLOSED THE LIQUID IS ACTUALLY INSIDE THE MACHINE BUMPED INTO A HOLDING TANK. AND SENT OFF SITE VERY TANKERS.

THE DRY FOOD RIGHT FROM THE MACHINE INTO THE AUGER INTO A TRACTOR-TRAILER AND A COVERED STORAGE AREA.

AND THOSE ARE SHIPPED OUT DAILY TO AS AN INGREDIENT FOR CATTLE

AND HOG THE PRODUCERS. >> BECAUSE YOU KNOW AS PEOPLE LEARN ABOUT WAS GENERALLY HAPPENING HERE.

HE'LL BE EXCITED AT THE SAME TIME AND SAY OH WAIT A MINUTE WHAT ABOUT ALL THE OTHER THINGS TO COME ALONG WITH HER.

AND THAT'S NATURE IN GENERAL. THAT HAS TO DO WITH LET'S NOT BEAT AROUND THE BUSH RODENTS OR SUMMARIES WORRIED ABOUT THAT THING. I'M NOT HERE TO PICK ON YOU ABOUT THAT I THANK YOU FOR EDUCATING ME ON THAT PART OF IT.

WHAT WE HAVE EXPERIENCE IN THE PAST AND I'VE ALERTED TOURED EARLIER. IS THAT WE HAVE A MIX OF RESIDENTIAL NEAR OR ADJACENT TO INDUSTRIAL LIGHT INDUSTRIAL.

REVIEW COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES. FOLKS ARE TRYING TO LIVE AND RESIDE IN THEIR HOMES. AND I GET UPSET ABOUT NOISES AND BEEPING AND ALARMS. EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE SMALL EQUIPMENT WITH WORTHLESS. I IMAGINE YOU WERE GOING TO HAVE AN ALARM ON IT WHEN THEY'RE BACKING UP MAYBE NOT I IMAGINE THEY WOULD DO. DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE FAR ENOUGH AWAY YOUR LANDSCAPE PLAN IS MITIGATION FOR THAT NOISE AND

[02:20:02]

THAT OPERATION? >> I DO, BETWEEN THE DISTANCE IN THE LANDSCAPING AND THE FENCE IN THE IRRIGATION CANAL AND THE LARGE TREE ON THE OTHER SIDE. NEAR THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AND INCIDENTALLY, I DON'T OWN THE PROPERTY YET.

IS UNDER CONTRACT. AND I WANT TO WAIT TILL I GOT THE APPROVAL ZONING APPROVAL. BEFORE I CLOSE ON AN OBVIOUSLY.

BUT PART OF THAT PACKAGE IS A LOT IN THAT COMMUNITY.

SO I AM VERY AWARE OF THE IMPACT THAT THAT COULD HAVE ON THE VALUABLE PROPERTIES. WE WILL BE A VERY GOOD NEIGHBOR AND PART OF THE PROGRAM IS TO RECEIVE MATERIALS IN DURING NORMAL BUSINESS HOURS. WE WILL NOT BE BRINGING TRUCKS AND UNLOADING MATERIALS IN THE EVENING.

IF THINGS GET BUSY ENOUGH TO THE POINT WHERE WE REALLY START BACKING UP, WE WILL PROCESS INSIDE THE BUILDING POSSIBLY ANOTHER SHIFT. BUT WE WILL NOT RECEIVE MATERIAL OR ANY NOISES THAT COULD IMPACT THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

>> THANK YOU FOR THAT. >> MR. FROMAN.

>> SO YOU TALK ABOUT IMPACTS AND IS PROBABLY GOING TO HEAR.

LATER ON. SO DUST ON YOUR DRY PRODUCTS? IS THAT A PROBLEM? IS THE DUST CONTAINED FROM YOUR

DRY PRODUCTS. >> IF YOU CAN IMAGINE JUST CRUNCHING UP CHEERIOS INSIDE A MACHINE AND AUGURING THEM CORRECTLY INTO A TRUCK IN A COVERED STORAGE AREA.

WE DON'T CREATE JEALOUS, NO EMISSIONS, AS FAR AS FUMES OR

ODORS OR ANY KIND. >> OKAY SO NO SMELLS AND NOISES AND THEY ARE KEPT WITHIN THE PREMISES.

IN THE OPERATIONS ARE NEAR OKAY I'VE GOT A THANK YOU.

>> SUGGESTED GENERAL COMMENT THANK YOU MADAME MAYOR.

I WAS EXCITED WHEN I READ YOUR APPLICATION PROCESS WITH THIS TYPE OF RECYCLING. I AM FURTHERMORE EXCITED ABOUT THE LIVABLE WAGE PART OF THIS. I KINDA WANTED TO HAVE YOU INTERJECT A LITTLE BIT IF YOU COULD.

WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE AS FAR AS LIVABLE WAGE CONCERNS.

I HAVE THAT CONCERN. COULD YOU SPEAK TO THAT?

>> I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE, ALL OF THE AMAZON AND UPS DRIVERS WHO DELIVER AS WE ARE STARTING TO GET MATERIAL INTO PLACE AND GET THE OFFICE IN SHAPE ET CETERA, I HAVE ASKED THEM VERY POINTEDLY WHERE THEY PAY OVER TO AMAZON? AND I THINK I AM PAYING WAY TOO MUCH.

BUT, MY PLAN, AGAIN, I WANT TO SAY A MOLD.

BUT I AM OLD. I'VE DONE THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES. I'VE SEEN A LOT OF DIFFERENT BUSINESSES OPERATE UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES.

IN MY PLAN HERE IS FOR THIS TO BE MY LAST ADVENTURE.

I'VE DONE QUITE A FEW DIFFERENT THINGS.

BUT JUST THE IDEA THAT WE CAN HAVE SOMETHING THAT IS TRULY SUSTAINABLE, AND SUSTAINABILITY TO ME MEANS SOMETHING THAT IS NOT JUST ECONOMICALLY SUSTAINABLE BUT IT HAS TO BE ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE AS WELL.

A LOT OF GREAT IDEAS, BUT IF NOBODY CAN AFFORD TO DO IT IS NOT CAN HELP ANYONE. SO TO HAVE A BUSINESS WHICH IS I THINK IN GREAT DEMAND AND THAT WILL BE GROWING.

ONE OF THE BIGGEST HASSLES FOR ANYBODY IN BUSINESS IS EMPLOYEES. TO FIND GOOD ONES AND PLAY THEM WELL AND BE ABLE TO KEEP THEM AND OFFER BENEFITS AND INCENTIVES AND THAT SORT OF THING.

TO ME YOU LEARNING THIS IN THIRD GRADE OR EIGHTH GRADE OR WHATEVER. I AM THE KIND OF PERSON WHEN I WALK MY DOG AND THE WEEKENDS, I GO TO LEPAGE IN A PICK UP TRASH.

EVEN WITH COVID-19. AND TO ME THIS IS A FUN THING TO DO. IT'S A FUN BUSINESS IS GREATLY AN EASY TEST MAKE IT IS A FUN BUILDING IT IS GREATLY NEEDING AND YOU ALL WELCOME TO THE GRAND OPENING.

>> ONE OTHER QUESTION. A LOT OF PEOPLE WATCH THE CITY COMMISSION MEETINGS AND WE HAVE, THIS IS BEEN HELPFUL FOR PEOPLE TO LEARN ABOUT NEW OPPORTUNITIES ESPECIALLY WHEN JOBS ARE CONCERNED. SO I ALWAYS MAKE IT A POINT TO TRY TO MAKE SURE THOSE THAT A LISTENING UNDERSTAND THE ECONOMIC IMPACT IS COMING TO THE AREA.

SPECIFICALLY IF YOU CAN, I'M JUST TRYING TO HONE IN ON THE TYPE OF LABOR THAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR? IS IT A PEOPLE TO DRIVE FORKLIFTS OR IS IT MANUAL LABOR.

[02:25:03]

>> FORKLIFT OPERATORS, ADMINISTRATIVE.

SCHEDULING. WHAT WE DO IS KIND OF LOGISTICALLY IN THE HANDS EVERYTHING THAT COMES IN WE HAVE TO KNOW WHERE IT GOES. SCHEDULE IT FOR PRODUCTION OR DE- PRODUCTION. THERE WILL BE SOME LABOR NOT A LOT OF LIFTING I DON'T THINK. I DON'T THINK ANY OF THE CASES WHERE THIS MATERIAL MAY BE 30 POUNDS.

>> OKAY. >> AND BASICALLY, YOU KNOW, SOME REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE FACILITIES AND MAINTENANCE THAT

TYPE OF OPPORTUNITY. >> THANK YOU THAT HELPS THERE

WILL BE LOOKING UP SHORT. >> GREAT JOBS.

>> SHOULD JUST TO CLARIFY SO NO TOXIC FUMES, NO LOUD HEAVY

MACHINERY. >> NO FRONT END LOADERS NOTHING REALLY BIGGER THAN A FORKLIFT. AND, EVERYTHING THAT COMES IN IS

EDIBLE OR PORTABLE. >> SO YOU ARE NOT RECYCLING, WOULD YOU TELL ME THE TERM AGAIN? THE TERM THAT'S APPLIED TO THIS FACILITY?

>> IT IS A PRECONSUMER FOOD AND BEVERAGE DESTRUCTION FACILITY.

ONE OF THE ASPECT TO THAT, TEN SOMETHING A LITTLE SHORTER.

>> IF SOMEBODY SAID THIS IS GOING TO BE RECYCLED.

NO NO NO I'M NOT SURE I CAN REMEMBER ALL THAT.

>> WELL. >> IT IS FASCINATING YOU HAVE TO HAVE A THING'S OR PLACE FOR THINGS THAT ARE OUT OF DATE TO

GO. >> EVERYBODY FROM THE REGULATORS AND THE LEGISLATORS IN THE COMMUNITY AND HISTORY.

EVEN THE, YOU TALK ABOUT THE BANKS AND INVESTORS THAT TYPE OF THING. EVERYBODY IS STARTING TO LOOK

TOWARDS WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE? >> RIGHT.

>> WHAT IS THE NEW GREEN DEAL? 0 WHAT IS A SUSTAINABLE NEW GREENDALE? SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DO DEALING WITH LARGE CORPORATIONS, LIKE NESTLÉ OR PEPSI OR COCA-COLA OR HILDEBRAND. A LOT OF THEIR PRODUCT LIABILITY CONCERNS, SOMEBODY HAS TO TAKE THIS MATERIAL AND REALLY DOCUMENT DESTRUCTION AND PROVIDE PROOF OF DESTRUCTION.

THERE IS A PAPER TRAIL AND THERE'S LIABILITY.

THERE IS ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES THERE IS AN EXCISE TAX TEXT GETS RETURNED FROM THE MANUFACTURER ONCE THEY CAN PROVIDE PROOF OF DESTRUCTION. SO IT IS A SLIGHTLY COMPLICATED BUSINESS. I TRY TO MAKE IT FUN BUT THERE

IS PAPERWORK INVOLVED ALSO. >> AND YOU HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE IN OTHER COMMUNITIES YOU HAVE SET UP THIS TYPE OF FACILITY

BEFORE? >> I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS TYPE OF WORK FOR ABOUT 24 OR 25 YEARS.

I HAVE A PARTNER WHO'S BEEN DOING THIS FOR 42 YEARS.

SO I KNOW IT IS LITERALLY EVERYBODY IN THE COUNTRY IN THE BUSINESS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE THE FIRST OF MANY FACILITIES. OVER THE NEXT THREE TO FIVE YEARS UP AND DOWN THE EAST COAST.

>> WELL WE APPRECIATE YOU CHOOSING FORT PIERCE.

>> HAPPEN TO BE HERE. >> ALREADY ANY OTHER QUESTIONS

OF THE APPLICANTS. >> ONE MORE QUESTION.

ANY ISSUES WITH THE GIORGIO OLEANDER CONDITION? THE USE OF THE ROADS? ENTERPRISES THERE BUT IS HOLD ANOTHER DISCUSSION ON ENTERPRISE.

>> THERE IS A QUITE A FEW POTHOLES ON OLEANDER BUT I'M SURE THEY WILL FIX THOSE ONCE THEY GET THE SEWER EXTENDED OUT

THAT WAY SHE WAS. >> THEY ARE WORKING HARD ON

THAT. >> IT DEPENDS ON THE SURTAX.

>> IS COUNTY ROAD. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WISHES TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE ANYONE ELSE? PLEASE COME FORWARD.

WE ARE SWORN IN? PLEASE COME FORWARD.

THANK YOU ESTATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS OF RECORD PLEASE.

>> MY NAME IS CHRISTIANA GARST I LIVE AT 3344 LIBERTY SQUARE WAY IN FORT PIERCE. MY HOME IS LESS THAN 100 YARDS FOR THE PARCEL IN QUESTION. FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO APPLAUD AND EMBRACE RECYCLING AND REUSING OUR FOOD PACKAGING AND FOOD WASTE I'VE HEARD SOUNDS EXTREME POSITIVE.

HOWEVER I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND SIMILAR OPERATIONS THIS

[02:30:01]

THE NEAREST RESIDENTIAL PARCEL IS 250 YARDS THAT THE BUILDING WILL TAKE PLACE IN. A FEW MORE YARDS AWAY THE CHILDREN APART. THE COVERED STORAGE AREA ON THIS PARCEL IS SIGNIFICANTLY CLOSER TO OUR RESIDENTIAL LARGER THAN 80 YARDS. THEREFORE I HAVE MANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS ENDEAVOR IN RELATION TO MY NEIGHBOR IN MY HOME.

AND SOME HAVE BEEN PARTIALLY ADDRESSED BUT IT'S LIKE TO BRING THEM UP. THE FIRST CONCERN I HAVE IS WHAT IS BEING DONE TO MITIGATE SMELL? THE CONDITIONAL USE ALSO ALL STORIES MUST BE UNDERCOVER. I'M CONCERNED THAT THE COVERED BUT OPEN SIDED PAVILIONS CLOSE TO OUR NEIGHBORHOODS MAY BE USED TO RESTORE UNSEALED ORGANIC WASTE FOR RECYCLABLES AND CONTAINING ORGANIC RESIDUE. IT CAN CARRY ORDER IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OR TRUCK WILDLIFE. BUT WE JUST MET BUT WHAT RECOURSE WE HAVE IF THAT ENDED OUR PROPERTY.

THE SECOND CONCERN IS NOISE MITIGATION.

CONTINUED INTO THE EVENING AND ALLOW BACKUP TRUCK BEEPERS TO BE HEARD INTO A HOME. DOCUMENTS FROM THE CITY WEBSITES A NORMAL OPERATION OF THE SITE WILL BE 7:00 A.M. TO 6:00 P.M.

BUT IT IS NOTED THAT DEMAND NECESSITATES OPERATIONS COULD CONTINUE LATER IN THE EVENING. I'M EXCITED TO HEAR VERBALLY THAT THEY WOULD NOT RECEIVE SHIPMENTS OR PICK UP AFTER HOURS OR THAT QUIET OPERATIONS WHAT HAPPENED INSIDE WHAT PROTECTIONS DO WE HAVE FROM THESE RESIDENTS FROM INCREASED NOSE.

WOULD A FUNCTION C LEVELS B ARE PLACED ON PICKUPS.

THEN FINALLY AS A POINT OF THE PATIENT, OF THE RULES IN PLACE BUT I DON'T THINK ADEQUATE NOTICE HAS BEEN MADE.

OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS HOMES BUILT IN 2,006 AND OTHER HALF ARE IN CONSTRUCTION. BASED ON THE ADDRESSES FROM THE AFFIDAVIT OF MAILING A PUBLIC NOTICE.

NONE OF THE NEW HOMES RECEIVE NOTICE E INCLUDING ALL THE NEW HOMES ADJACENT TO APOSTLE IN QUESTION.

I BELIEVE IS IS BECAUSE A YEAR LAND-USE GOALS WASN'T QUICK ENOUGH. SO THE BRAND-NEW HOMES ARE NOT GIVEN ORDERS. I PROVIDE A PHOTOCOPIES OF SIMILAR HOMES LAST FEW DAYS. ALSO THE BUILDER WORKING AND ON NEIGHBORHOOD RYAN HOMES RECEIVE NO NOTIFICATION.

I THINK I EVER REPRESENT A MY NEIGHBOR'S CONCERNS THE ONES I'VE COMMUNICATED WITH. IT WOULD BEEN APPROPRIATE THEM

TO BE NOTIFIED BY THE CITY. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH WE APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE.

WITH THE APPLICANT LIKE TO COME BACK AND ADDRESS THESE CONCERNS?

>> THERE WERE TWO POINTS. ONE WAS THE OUTDOOR STORAGE AND POTENTIAL OWNERS. AND THE OTHER WAS A POSSIBLE OR OPEN CONTAINERS OF MATERIAL. WE WILL RECEIVE QUITE A BIT OF JUST OPEN CONTAINERS. LIKE BULK MATERIALS.

WHICH DO NOT HAVE TO BE DE- PACKAGED AS PART OF THE BUSINESS. BUT WE DON'T ACTUALLY RECEIVE ANY OF THAT AT THE FACILITY. THAT MATERIAL GOES DIRECT TO THE END USER. WHETHER A COMPOST FACILITY ET CETERA. SO WE ARE VERY CAREFUL.

THE ONLY THING THAT WE WANT TO BRING IN FROM THIS FACILITY IS WHAT WE HAVE TO D PACKAGE. EVERYTHING ELSE I DON'T WANT TO SAY IS BROKERED. THAT IS NOT THE RIGHT WORD.

THAT WILL GO DIRECTLY TOWARD YOLANDA.

>> EVERYTHING COME SEE PACKAGE. IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE TELLING ME?

SHRINK WRAP I THINK YOU SAID? >> YES IT IS IN HER ORIGINAL CASES CARTONS AND PACKAGE WRAPPED IN PALLETS.

AND THE OTHER POINT WAS THAT POSSIBLE ODORS IN ATTRACTING RODENTS ET CETERA. ONE OF THE INTERESTING CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EQUIPMENT THAT WE USE, AND YOU ALL ARE INVITED OUT TO SEE THIS WHEN WE GET IT INSTALLED AND RUNNING.

THIS MACHINE CAN TAKE LITTLE PACKETS OF YOGURT, OR CANS OF REBEL IT MPD'S THE CONTENTS. IT RINSES AND DRIES THE CONTAINERS WHETHER IT IS PLASTIC OR ALUMINUM.

AND THEN BASICALLY THE OUTPUT IS CLEAN AND DRY RECYCLABLE MATERIAL. SO THAT IS A NEAT CHARACTERISTICS AND THAT'S WHY WE SPEND SO MUCH MONEY IN ORDER THIS RELEASE SIX MONTHS AGO. IT REALLY DOES A GREAT JOB MAKING SURE THAT THE STREAMS STAY SEPARATE AND CLEAN.

YOU DON'T WANT CONTAMINANTS COMPACTING -- YOU DON'T WANT CONTAMINANTS GOING TO THE HAGEN FEE PRODUCERS.

AND YOU DON'T WANT ORGANICS GOING INTO THE RECYCLABLES WHICH

WOULD DETRACT FROM VALUE ALSO. >> YOUR LIQUID WASTE, IS IT SHIPPED OUT OR DO YOU PUT IT INTO THE SEWER SYSTEM?

[02:35:02]

>> WE DO NOT PUT ANYTHING DOWN THE DRAIN OTHER THAN WHAT IS CONNECTED TO THE SINKS AND RESTROOMS AND ET CETERA IN THE BUILDING. ALL THE MATERIAL THE TIGER D PACKAGE OR WHICH IS THE EQUIPMENT.

IT IS NOT EVEN CONNECTED TO THE SEWER.

EVERYTHING GOES INTO A HOLDING TANK AND THEN INTO A TANK TRUCK

AND GET SHIPPED OUT. >> YOU HEARD THE CONSIDERATIONS ABOUT THE AFTER HOURS OPERATION WHICH RIGHT NOW.

>> THAT IS A GOOD POINT THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT IT QUITE A BIT ACTUALLY. AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY OTHER THAN I DO UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOR AND THE PROBLEMS THAT CAN ARISE FROM WHEN SOMEBODY IS NOT A GOOD ACTOR. SO WE WILL MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO BE POLITE AND COGNIZANT OF THE CONCERNS OF THE COMMUNITY.

AND WE WILL OPERATE BUSINESS DURING NORMAL BUSINESS HOURS.

UNLESS IT IS INDOORS. WHERE WE WILL LOOK WILL NOT

CAUSE ANY ISSUES. >> AND NOT A WEEK IS CORRECT?

>> CERTAINLY NOT ON WEEKENDS I AM WAY TOO OLD FOR THAT.

>> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

>> THANK YOU. >> ALRIGHT WE WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND ENTERTAIN DISCUSSION OR MOTION.

>> MEHTA MAYOR JUST I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE THREE STAFF AND CAN YOU PUT THAT UP.

OKAY. OKAY VERY GOOD.

YES I WOULD JUST MAKE A COUPLE COMMENTS.

I WANT TO MAKE A MOTION WELL I'LL MAKE A MOTION FIRST.

A MOTION TO APPROVE WITH CONDITIONS.

>> SECOND WITH COMMENTS. >> THERE IS NO DOUBT THERE ARE CONCERNS. WE ALL HAVE HAD INFORMATION GIVEN TO US OVER TIME WITH OTHER APPLICATIONS ABOUT HAVING ACTIVITY NEAR RESIDENTIAL. AND I DON'T WANT THAT TO GO UNNOTICED AND I TALKED ABOUT. WE HAVE AN APPLICANT THAT IS COMMITTED TO PERFORMING A SERVICE WITH A VERY CLEAN AND EFFICIENT OPERATION. STAFF HAS BEEN IN DISCUSSION WITH THEM AND BEEN ON SITE AND ADD DISCUSSION.

PROBABLY MORE INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE.

WE ARE SEEING IT AND SEEING SOMETHING.

YOU KNOW, WITH THE SELF-CONTAINED UNITS LIKE THAT.

AND I WAS GLAD AND THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE DRYING PART OF IT.

BECAUSE THAT IS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR.

PULLING AWAY THAT ALUMINUM CAN OR THAT PIECE OF PLASTIC AND THEN CLEANING AND DRYING IT AND GET RID OF IT.

IN RECYCLING OPERATION THAT IS VERY CRITICAL.

TO WHAT HIS OPERATION IS AND RECYCLING AND HAVING A USABLE PRODUCT. SO THE LAST THING WE WANT TO DO IS HAVE IT GO WITH THAT ENTIRE OPERATION AND HAVE IT LAND IN LANDFILL ANYWAY. SO I APPRECIATE THAT INFORMATION. BUT, THESE CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL ARE VERY IMPORTANT. WITH THE TESTIMONY TONIGHT OF HOURS OF OPERATION YOU HEARD TESTIMONY ABOUT THE COMMITMENTS BY LANDOWNERS AND THE POTENTIAL LANDOWNERS.

SO WE INTEND TO HELP THEM ADHERE TO THOSE CONDITIONS OVER TIME.

AND SO I AM POOR UPON NEIGHBORS TO REACH OUT TO THE CITY IF SOMETHING IS GOING AWRY. AND REACH OUT TO THE DEVELOPER AND THE OWNER. SO IT SOUNDS LIKE HE IS VERY WILLING TO TALK AND HAVE CONVERSATION.

THANK YOU. >> YES THANK YOU, THIS BEING A BECAUSE I. WE HAVE TO BE SET TO CERTAIN STANDARDS. IN YOU SPEAK OF AND OPPOSITION WE HAVE TO HEAR CONFIDENCE AS FINANCIAL EVIDENCE.

THAT WE CAN USE THAT WE KNOW IS TRUE THAT PERCEPTION THAT WE KNOW IS TRUE. AND I AM WILLING TO SAY THAT I HAVE SOME COMPELLING CONCERNS. BUT NO COMPETENT SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE THAT WOULD SAY NO. THIS IS ZONED I-1 CORRECT? I ALWAYS ASKED MYSELF IF NOT THIS, THEN WHAT? AND THEN WE HAD TEN LOGIC THERE WE HAD A LUNG.

ARE THERE BEFORE. IF WE I HAD TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE THREE OF THEM I WILL WANT THIS BUSINESS THERE.

I DON'T EXPECT TO HAVE RESIDENTIAL AND RETAIL TRAFFIC PULLING IN AND PULLING OUT AND. THE BIG TRUCKS ON TENT LOGIC THAT WOULD PARADE UP AND DOWN THE ROAD ALL THE TIME.

SO THIS HAS A ZONING THAT WE HAVE SET A LONG TIME AGO.

AND NOW WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT THESE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS,

[02:40:04]

TWO NOW THE RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT.

AND AS WE GROW AND ASLAN GETS MORE VALUABLE AND WHAT PEOPLE WANT TO MOVE TO THIS COMMUNITY. WE ARE GOING TO BE CONDENSED A LITTLE BIT MORE AND THIS IS GOING TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM GOING FORWARD. I THINK THE PROBLEM WITH THIS IT WAS MENTIONED EARLY ON IS THAT WE JUST LIKE THERE WERE RECYCLING NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM THIS PROJECT.

YOU KNOW, JUST SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT NICER.

HAD TO BE USED. BECAUSE ONCE SHE IS RECYCLING, BECAUSE WE HAVE APPROVED CONCRETE RECYCLING AND ALL THESE OTHER THINGS THAT HAVE CAUSED US A WHOLE LOT A HOST OF PROBLEMS. BUT I SAY THAT, WHEN YOU SAY SOME OF THE THINGS ON THE LIST THAT COULD GO IN. ON ONE, I'M GOING TO TELL YOU THIS IS THE TOP OF THE LIST OF THINGS THAT I WOULD WANT.

I MOVED IN NEXT TO AN INDUSTRIAL AREA.

I HAVE TO EXPECT THAT SOME OF THIS IS GOING TO BE AN IMPACT.

SO, THERE IS NO SMELL, NO DOUBTS, THE NOISES AT A MINIMUM.

THE WORKING HOURS OR DURING THE WEEK AND NO DURING NORMAL WORKING HOURS. I'M TELLING YOU THAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO APPROVE THIS THEN WHAT ARE WE GOING TO PROVE? I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE? SO REALLY I AM HAPPY WITH THIS I APPRECIATE THE EDUCATION PROCESS.

I DO APPRECIATE THE CONCERNS I COME FORTH.

AND'S AND REALLY AND THAT I'M GOING TO YOU THINK ABOUT IT.

IF NOT THIS THEN WHAT? IF YOU LIVE FLEXIBLE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL AREA. YOU KNOW I'VE NOT SEEN AS BAD.

AND WE ARE TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO MAKE THIS A REALLY NICE DECISION FOR BOTH OF YOU.

THE RESIDENCE AND THE APPLICANT. AT THE END OF THE DAY DOES THE BEST WE HAVE. AND I AM HAPPY.

THIS IS ONE OF THE EASY ONES FOR ME TOO GET PAST.

SO, I AM IN TOTAL SUPPORT. >> THANK YOU, I'VE BEEN SITTING HERE THINKING IT DOESN'T SOUND YOU CAN COMPARE THIS TO AN OPERATION LIKE TEN LOGIC'S. THIS WILL BE A FAR DIFFERENT ANIMAL AND I'M GOING TO COME UP WITH A GOOD NAME FOR.

ALRIGHTY COMMISSIONER JOHNSON COREY.

>> SOLID FOOD WASTE DISPOSAL. >> I KNOW RIGHT.

OKAY SHALL WE VOTE CALLED ROPES. >> COMMISSIONER C JOHNSON.

YES, MA'AM. COMMISSIONER JOHNSON.

JAN CHESSMEN. MEHTA MAYOR.

>> YES, MA'AM. >> CONGRATULATIONS.

[a. Resolution 21-R15 appointing a Fort Pierce Business Owner to serve on the Keep Fort Pierce Beautiful Board.]

>> NEXT WE HAVE A RESOLUTION 21-R50 NOT CERTIFYING THE APPOINTMENT OR REAPPOINTMENT TO THE KEEP FORT PIERCE BEAUTIFUL ADVISORY BOARD IN PROVIDING INEFFECTIVE DAY.

SO I PASSED OUT THE BALLOT AND WE HAD TWO APPLICANTS FOR THIS SEAT. THIS IS THE SEAT THAT REPRESENTS THE FORT PIERCE BUSINESS OWNERS. THE PERSON IN THAT CC DOES NOT ACTUALLY HAVE TO LIVE WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS.

BUT THE BUSINESS DOES HAVE TO BE WITHIN CITY LIMITS AND THEY MUST HAVE A VALID BUSINESS TAX RECEIPT.

>> ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS CIRCLE IT.

>> I WROTE IT. >> I WROTE IT TO.

>> I JUST GOTTA READ IT. >> OKAY, COMMISSIONER JEREMIAH JOHNSON VOTED FOR TO SHONDA TELL US.

COMMISSIONER PERRONE VOTED FOR BRADLEY BROWN.

COMMISSIONER CURTIS JOHNSON VOTED FOR TO SHONDA TELL US.

AND MARANDA TELL US ABOUT A FOOT TO SHONDA TELL US.

SO MS. TELL US WILL BE THE NEW MEMBER OF THE KEEP FORT PIERCE BEAUTIFUL BOARD. WE DO NEED A MOTION TO APPROVE

THAT RESOLUTION. >> SO MOVE.

>> MR. JOHNSON. >> JUST MEANT.

>> MR. JOHNSON. >> YES, MA'AM.

NEXT WE HAVE SOLUTION 21-R16. SUPPORTING THE 2021 LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES OF FLORIDA LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TREASURE COAST

REGIONAL LEAGUE OF CITIES. >> THIS IS MY REQUEST TO THE

[02:45:02]

THEY COME UP WITH THEIR MAIN POLICY FOR THAT PARTICULAR AREA.

I WILL LET YOU KNOW THAT THE SALES TAX FAIRNESS LEGISLATION IS LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. IN THE LEGISLATURE EVEN THOUGH TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY THE LEGISLATURE MET.

SO FAR IT HAS BEEN THROUGH A COUPLE OF COMMITTEES.

AND IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING GOOD SUPPORT.

I THINK ONE OF THE REASONS IS IS BECAUSE IT'S NOT A NEW TAX.

IT IS JUST A FURNACE TAX ON GOODS THAT YOU ORDER.

AS OPPOSED TO GOODS THAT YOU BUY FROM BRICK-AND-MORTAR STORE.

AND THE SHORT TERM RENTAL LEGISLATION THAT IS WINDING ITS WAY THROUGH LEGISLATURE IS DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSED TO WHAT THE FLORIDA LEAGUE OF CITIES TRYING TO DO.

SO THESE ARE OUR POLICIES AND PRIORITIES AND I WANT TO SHARE WITH THE COMMISSIONERS I DON'T OFTEN GET ALERTS FROM A FLORIDA LEAGUE OF CITIES ABOUT THESE. BUT YOU GET THEM SO THAT YOU WILL AND IF YOU WILL IT WOULD BE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.

IT DOES HELP, TO CONTACT A LEGISLATOR WHEN YOU HAVE A SERIOUS CONCERN OF THAT ISSUE IT DOES HELP.

SO I WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU TO DO THAT AND VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.

SO I WILL ENTERTAIN A MOTION FOR QUESTIONS.

>> I MOVED TO APPROVE. >> SECOND PERIOD SO MUCH AS THE

SECOND PERIOD CALLED ROPES. >> NEXT WE HAVE SUBMITTAL OF

[c. Submittal of applications to serve on the Communitywide Council.]

-- COMMITTEE WIDE COUNCIL. WE HAVE TWO -- WE ARE PERCEIVED TO AND WE HAVE OVER ONE ELIGIBLE APPLICANT.

WE WILL ASK THEM TO SET OUT THE NOTICE AGAIN.

IN THE MEANTIME IF YOU WANT TO RECRUIT, I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT. THE PERSON HAS TO LIVE WITHIN CRA BOUNDARIES. THE TARGETED AREAS OF THE CRA.

AND I THINK THE TARGET AREAS FOR THE CRA PLAN IS PRETTY MUCH THE LINKIN PARK AREA. YES.

WELL IT IS THE TARGETED AREA. IT IS BEST DEFINED BY THE CRA.

IT IS A LOW INCOME AREA. AS I THINK WHAT THE TARGET AREA

IS. >> DO THEY MEET MONTHLY?

>> THEY ONLY BE QUARTERLY. AND THEY TYPICALLY REVIEW APPLICATIONS FOR THE CITY GRANTS.

>> FOR GRANTS RIGHT? YES.

ALL RIGHT I WILL BE ON THE LOOKOUT.

I WILL DO WILL BOLO. >> I THINK RATHER THAN BRING THIS BACK TO THE NEXT COMMISSION MEETING LIKE I TYPICALLY DO I WILL WANT TO WAIT TO SEE IF WE GET MORE APPLICATIONS.

>> TWO OPENINGS. >> TWO OPENINGS.

>> WE HAVE ONE APPLICANT. >> ONE IS THE NEXT MEETING?

>> I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER THAT. I DON'T EXIST ANYTIME SOON.

>> HAVE WE OPEN THE GRANT PROCESS AT THOUGH?

I THINK THAT'S THE TRIGGER? >> I DON'T KNOW I BELIEVE WE HAD A NOTICE OF FUNDING AVAILABILITY.

SO I THINK THAT IS COMING UP IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS.

>> WE APPROVE SOMETHING THAT MIGHT SINGLE IT STARTING.

>> THIS IS FOR CDG BE? >> THAT IS RIGHT.

>> ALREADY,. >> ALRIGHT WITH THAT WE WILL

THEY ARE GROWN UP NOW. AND WE HAVE GOT A THING GOING RIGHT NOW IS SENT YOU SOMETHING YOUR COMPUTER RIGHT? AND WE DO THIS THING EVERY WEEK. I STARTED DOING SOME STUFF A YEAR AGO BEFORE THE PANDEMIC AT THE BLACK BOX AT THE SUMMARIZED DATA. WORKING WITH SHARON.

DOING SOME STUFF YOU KNOW GIVEN YOUNG PEOPLE IN OUTLET.

BUT WE ARE INTERESTED IN POSSIBLY COLLABORATING WITH THE CITY. IN CHANNEL 29.

TWO TO FOUR SHOWS A YEAR LIKE EVERY QUARTER.

AND DISPLAY THESE YOUNG PEOPLE AND TRY TO UPLIFT THEM IF THEY REALLY WANT TO PURSUE MUSIC CAREER IN THAT SORT OF STUFF.

TO GIVE THEM AN OUTLET. GIVE THEM ACCESS TO DO SOME SOMETHING. BECAUSE THERE IS A LOT OF TALENTED YOUNG PEOPLE HERE. AND IT IT IS A SHAME THAT THEY REALLY DON'T HAVE A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN ACTUALLY DISPLAY A LITTLE MORE RELEVANT TO THE AREA.

BECAUSE MOST OF THIS AREA IS AT AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY.

AND THEY HAVE KIND OF LIKE RESTRICTED IN A WAY.

I MOVED HERE EIGHT YEARS AGO FROM TAMPA.

FOR TAMPA BAY, AND IT IS KIND OF LIKE THE SAME SITUATION YOU KNOW. BUT IT WAS A D MARKET IN ST. PETERSBURG WHEN MY MUSICAL JOURNEY CAN BE STARTED IN THAT PARTICULAR AREA. NOW IT IS IN A MARKET.

THIS IS A D MARKET. MUSICALLY SPEAKING.

I LIKE TO HAVE SOME INPUT ON KIND OF BRING THAT UP TO IN A MARKET YOU KNOW THAT I KNOW THERE IS A FEW NICE FACILITIES IN THE AREA. AND YOU KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THIS AREA THERE WERE CARD. THEY MAKE A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY BUT THEY STILL NEED AN OUTLET. AND IN THIS TOWN IS GROWN AND THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS HAPPENING HERE.

AND I THINK THAT IT WOULD BE AN ASSET WHERE PEOPLE CAN HAVE SOME TYPE OF RECREATIONAL OUTLET OR SOMETHING WHERE THEY CAN RELIEVE THEMSELVES TO HAVE SOME FUN YOU KNOW SOME NICE CLEAN FUN.

>> THANK YOU SERIA TIMES. WE APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE.

THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE? WISHING TO ADDRESS THE COMMISSION PLEASE COME FORWARD I SEE SOMEBODY WANTS TO COME FORWARD.

AND HOW AWESOME HOW THAT NEW HISTORY AND YOU ARE CREATING THE NEW HISTORY.

THE POSITIE HISTORY IN THAT COMMUNITY.

BUT WE ASKED HER ABOUT A CITY. AND WE ASKED HER GRANDMOTHER WAS SCHOOL DID YOU GO TO? AND SHE SAID I WANT TO LEE'S COURT FOR ELEMENTARY AND I WENT TO LINCOLN PARK FOR HIGH SCHOOL.

AND SHE STARTED NAMING ALL OF THESE TEACHERS.

AND I CAN'T REMEMBER HALF OF MY TEACHERS.

BUT AT A HUNDRED AND 1-YEARS-OLD SHE REMEMBERED ALL THE STUFF.

AND SHE WANTED TO WALK DOWN. I THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO DRIVE HER TO PARKING WITH A THE CORNER WE WERE IN A MINISTRY.

SHE TOLD HIM SHE WOULD WALK. SO SHE WALKED ON HER WALK ALL THE WAY TO THE END OF THAT STREET.

WHICH IS THE POSITIVE THING. THAT'S WHAT YOU GIVE WHEN YOU SAY GIVING YOUR FLOWERS WHERE YOU LIVE.

>> ALREADY LETS MOVE ON. NEXT WE WANT TO CITY COMMISSION.

>> THANK YOU MAYOR. FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO DO IS BEEN A LOT OF SERIOUS CRIMES THAT HAVE BEEN HAPPENING IN FORT PIERCE IN THE LAST COUPLE WEEKS. THAT IS GIVEN A LOT OF PEOPLE LITTLE BIT OF A STIR. ALTHOUGH WE CAN'T GO INTO IT.

IT IS GOOD NEWS TO KNOW THAT FOR SPIRIT POLICE DEPARTMENT AS A HANDLE ON ALL OF IT. INCLUDING A DRUG BUST, THERE'S BEEN A COUPLE OF MURDERS. IT IS JUST THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED AND I AM SO PROUD OF OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR ABLE TO RESPOND TO AND GET A HANDLE ON IT BEFORE IT EVEN HAPPENS AND STARTS TO GET GOING THE PUBLIC EYE.

I AM SHOUTING OUT TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT THANK YOU GUYS.

AND GALS. I DO WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE CHICKENS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE ARE DOING HERE. BUT WE WERE ATTACKED BY A CHICKENS A COUPLE YEARS AGO. I COULD NOT GO TO MY DENTIST UNLESS WE HAVE THE CHICKENS REMOVED FROM HIS FRONT PORCH.

AND I'M TELLING YOU, I UNDERSTAND EXACTLY, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HOPEFULLY THAT IS NOT REFLECTED DEEPLY IN THE MINUTES. BUT FORT PIERCE MAY HAVE A CHICKEN PROBLEM. AND I WOULD LIKE TO GET A HANDLE ON IT. I THINK WE WERE SELLING THEM OR GIVING THEM AWAY FOR A DOLLAR. IN OKEECHOBEE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT WERE MOVING OUR CHICKENS TO ANOTHER COMMUNITY.

THIS IS, IT IS FUNNY IN A WAY BUT IT ISN'T IS SERIOUS BUSINESS. AND TALK ABOUT ALL THE THINGS THAT WE TALKED ABOUT LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TODAY AND IN THE IMPACTS OF NOISE AND SMELL. YOU'VE GOT THEM ALL WITH THE LITTLE CHICKENS. ANYWAY, I AM STATING THE FACT THAT I EXACTLY UNDERSTAND WE ARE COMING FROM.

AND I WOULD PROMOTE AND SUPPORT ANY MOVEMENT THAT THE CITY HAS WITH TRYING TO GET A HANDLE ON IT.

>> INCLUDING ROOSTERS. >> ALRIGHT I HAVE SAID THAT I DO -- I DID GET AN E-MAIL I THINK YOU ALL GOT AN E-MAIL.

IT'S KINDA INTERESTING. I DON'T KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT IT.

AND I WOULD LIKE STAFF TO BE ABLE TO GET MORE INFORMATION.

I GOT AN E-MAIL FROM ERIC L. ABOUT THE DISC GOLF.

HE IS THE SECRETARY OF THE DISC GOLF CLUB.

I AM SAYING WHAT? I KINDA KNOW WHAT IT IS.

IT REALLY IS SOMEWHAT ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF NEW SPORTS.

>> I'M SURE IT IS. >> I AM NOT SAYING THAT YOU KNOW

[03:10:05]

>> I WOULD LIKE THAT ALSO. I LIKE TO LOOK INTO THAT.

>> ERIC IS A FORT PIERCE CITIZEN IS IN THE SUNRISE COMMITTEE AND HE DOESN'T GOOD JOB FOR THE COUNTY OF PUBLIC INFORMATION.

AND I WOULD LIKE TO CERTAINLY HE PUT FORTH A LOT OF EFFORT FOR

THAT. >> I SENT A RESPONSE IN US AND THE LIKE MORE ABOUT IT. LASTLY I SURVIVED ANOTHER FOUR HOURS OF ETHICS TRAINING. AND I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I DID LEARN SOME NEW THINGS. WHAT I DID LEARN AS I WOULD WANT THE CLERK SHOP. THAT CHANGES SO QUICKLY AND ALL THE REQUIREMENTS THAT A CLERK HAS THAT IS GOVERNED UNDER THE ETHICS. IT IS A LITTLE BIT MORE RESPECT FOR YOU AND YOUR STAFF FOR THAT. WITH THAT THERE IS NO COMMENTS.

>> IS NOT EASY KEEPING YOU GUYS STRAIGHT.

>> COMMISSIONER JAY JOHNSON WOULD LIKE TO GO NEXT.

THANK YOU I GOT THE E-MAIL I WANT TO STAND TO SCOFF QUICK IT IS A NEAT OPPORTUNITY THAT TAKES ADVANTAGE OF EXISTING PUBLIC LAND AND IT'S VERY SMALL IMPACT. WITH THE ADMINISTRATIVE APPROACH SHALL BE HERE IN A TEAM OVER THERE.

MR. RIOS ON THE BACK THEY CAN BUILD A REAL GOOD 1815 WHOLE OR WHATEVER YOU CALL IT DISC HOLE GOLF COURSE FOR MINIMUM COSTS.

USING SOME LAND THAT WE ARE TO HAVE.

ACTUALLY I'VE ALREADY DID HE SEND?

>> NO. NO WE JUST GOT A LONG E-MAIL.

>> I GOT A LONG E-MAIL. >> HE HAD AN ATTACHMENT TO IT.

>> YES ATTACHMENT THERE IT'S RIGHT.

SO IT SHOWS OVER AT THE INDIAN HILLS RECREATION AREA.

IT'S A PERFECT OPPORTUNITY AND IT IS MINIMAL COST.

SO LET'S LEARN ABOUT IT. ME I AM LIKE LET'S GO.

IT IS EXISTING LAND IS GOING TO BE PARKLAND FOREVER AND IT'S A GREAT OPPORTUNITY. SO THAT'S JUST ME WILL TALK ABOUT MORE CAN VOTE ON COURSE. BUT I THINK IT IS GREAT.

I'VE TALKED A LOT TONIGHT SO I'M NOT GOING TO SAY MUCH MORE.

OTHER THAN I'M JUST LOOKING FORWARD TO A LOT OF THINGS THIS MONTH. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THE MEETING NEXT MONDAY AND TUESDAY ALSO RIGHT? TUESDAY IS A VERY? THAT IS WHY I ASKED ABOUT THE PRESENTATIONS AND WILL TALK ABOUT TOMORROW.

EDUCATE ME A LITTLE BIT MORE. YOU SAID YES THEY ARE COMING? NO THEY ARE NOT COMING YOU CAN TELL GOOD.

>> YOU ABOUT TOMORROW. >> YOU HAVE TO WAIT.

>> YOU MUST OF ITSELF AS A KID AT CHRISTMAS TIME.

>> YES AND THERE'S A LOT OF GOOD THINGS HAPPENING.

THE OTHER CONCERN THAT I HAVE AND I TALKED TO NICK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS AND I TALKED TO JACK TOO.

AND THEN YOU GUYS HAVE ALL HEARD ABOUT IT IT'S IN YOUR MEMBER DRIVE. I RAN INTO COMMISSIONERS THE OTHER DAY COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. AND THEY HAD A GOOD DISCUSSION IN THEIR MEETING ABOUT INDIAN RIVER DRIVE.

I LOOK INTO THE CITY FOR SOME FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.

HERE'S WHAT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT.

IT IS JUST IN GENERAL, THINKING ABOUT WHAT WE DO WITH SAFETY AND SPEED. AND THEN PEDESTRIAN CROSSOVERS.

AND WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT WAS MAYBE RAISING PEDESTRIAN CROSSOVERS AND USING THAT AS A SPEED TABLE.

SO ONE OF THE THINGS IN DOT DESIGN OR IN OUR DESIGN MANUAL MAY BE I'M NOT SURE I HAVE A LOOK AT IT.

BUT IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY ON INDIAN RIVER DRIVE AND VETERANS PARKWAY IS WHAT WE HAVE ACROSS ROXBURY WITH RAISE THEM UP USES A SPEED TABLE AND I'LL SEND ALYSSA PEDESTRIAN'S EMPIRE.

SHE WAS MORE VISIBLE. >> I SEE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. SO WHAT IS TWOFOLD.

>> LIKE OCEAN BREEZE HAS THAT. >> YES OCEAN BREEZE AS THAT IS A MODERN DESIGN. FOR ROADWAYS IF YOU WERE TO DRIVE DOWN INDIAN RIVER DRIVE. YOU KNOW WHERE OCEAN BREEZES COMMISSIONER? YOU KNOW JUST SOUTH.

>> THE ONE THAT USED TO BE ONLY MANUFACTURED HOUSING.

THEY'VE TRIPLED IN SIZE AND THERE PART OF OUR TREASURE COVE

[03:15:06]

SO WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT. WE OWN WAS A SECTION THAT WE

OWN? >> THE SESSION WHAT WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR IS BETWEEN CITRUS AVENUE AND AVENUE A WHICH IS VEREEN AWAY. WE TOOK OVER THAT SECTION WHEN WE WORK WITH FTO TPF DOT PROVIDED SOME RECONSTRUCTION FUNDING FOR US. WE TOOK OVER THAT SECTION, AND WE TOOK OVER THE CITRUS AVENUE BRIDGE.

>> SO THE GOOD THING IS THAT WE ARE TRACKING FOR CONTROL IN THAT AREA AND SPEAK ADJUSTED IN HIS STOPLIGHTS.

SO I THINK WE'RE DOING A GOOD JOB.

SO WE HAD A LIEN ON ACCOUNTING PARTNERS.

THEY KINDA THREW THE BALL AT US. >> THEY DID I SAW THE STATE.

I SAW THE STATEMENT ABSOLUTELY I DID.

SO. >> THEY'D PUT THE BALL IN OUR DIRECTION. SO IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THAT BE READY FOR THAT IS GONNA BE REAL DISCUSSION ITEM.

BUT IT'S TRUE THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO CONSIDER.

>> REMEMBER WE TALKED ABOUT INDIAN RIVER DRIVE AT THE TPO WHEN I WAS ON THE TPO WE STARTED TALKING ABOUT IT.

IT TALKS ABOUT HAVING LEONARD ROAD AS AN OPTION OR AN ALTERNATIVE I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S GONNA COME BACK OR NOT.

SO. >> IT'S HAPPENING YOU KNOW REGULAR EXPEDIA PICNIC AND TESTIFY TO THIS.

SIGNS. >> UNFORTUNATELY HEARD ABOUT

THAT. >> I'M GOING TO STOP NOW THANK

YOU. >> COMMISSIONER C JOHNSON.

>> I HAVE TEN THINGS IS TO JUST BUCKLE UP AND HERE WE GO.

SO FIRST I WANT TO TALK QUICKLY GIVE KUDOS TO STAFF AND CITY MRA CLICK NEXT REPORT. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT CREATE CLARITY TO SEE IN IT AND THAT ASPECT.

AND AS MOST OF YOU KNOW OR MAY NOT KNOW I ACTUALLY CUT A VIDEO SO MS. LEVITT IF YOU'RE FOLLOWING ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA COMMISSIONER CURTIS JOHNSON JUNIOR.

THERE IS A VIDEO UP ABOUT SEA CLICK FIX.

WE WILL MAKE SURE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD THIS APPARATUS ON YOUR SMART PHONE AND THIS WILL HELP COMMUNICATE THE ISSUE THAT YOU HAVE IDENTIFIED IN OUR COMMUNITY.

AND WE NEED YOUR HELP. AND I WOULD ECHO THE CHICKEN PROBLEM. I HAD TO STOP AND ALLOWED FOR TICKETS CROSSROADS IN MY COMMUTE NEIGHBORHOOD.

AND I TO HEAR THEM IN THE MORNING.

THEY DON'T SOUND LIKE THEY'RE IN MY BATHROOM BUT I DO HEAR THEM.

AND I THINK WE NEED TO TRY TO GET A HOLD OF THAT AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN REPORT ON SEA CLICK FIX.

I WANT TO REITERATE IT CREATES A PAPER TRAIL AND THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT. IN A GOOD WAY BECAUSE WE NEED TO DOCUMENT THE HARD WORK OF PARTICULARLY THE DEPARTMENTS.

AND THAT'S ONE WAY I'VE EXPRESSED SOME ASPIRATIONS AS FAR AS KNOWING THAT. IN PARTICULAR IT INTO THE AIR WE DO KIND OF ASSESS WHERE WE NEED TO GO WHEN IT COMES TO THAT.

THE NEXT THING I JUST WANT TO QUICKLY AND I'M SURE YOU MET MAN YOU BRING THIS UP ABOUT THE KEEP FORT PIERCE BEAUTIFUL CLEANUP DAY COMING MARCH 13. LAST COMMISSION MEETING I WAS TASKED WITH A CHALLENGE AND SO ICING IS PROBABLY ALL OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE LINCOLN PARK AREA AND THE SURROUNDING AREAS.

IN THE EVERYTHING I AM MAKING A SPECIAL PLAY.

WE DO OUR PART AS WELL AND PARTICIPATE IN THE WE SOME NICE THINGS I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT YOU GO IN THE CITY'S WEBSITE.

SIGN UP THERE. AND LET US KNOW AS AN INDIVIDUAL OR YOUR GROUP OR ORGANIZATION WILL BE PARTICIPATING.

AND THEN I WANT TO QUICKLY HIGHLIGHT A COUPLE THINGS ON THE COMMUNITY GOING ON THIS WE CAN. COMMUNITY ARTS AND HEALTH AWARENESS IS COMING UP THIS SATURDAY.

THE CITY IS PARTICIPATING WITH THE COUNTY.

AT THE LINCOLN PARK RECREATIONAL CENTER WHICH IS ON AVENUE M.

I THINK IT IS 1306 AVENUE MM. SO I WILL BE A GREAT CULTURAL EVENT THERE WITHOUT CULTURAL DISPLAYS AS WELL AS FOOD TRUCKS AND VENDORS AND WILL ALL BE SOCIALLY DISCOUNTS AND YOU'LL HAVE TO WEAR A MASK. BUT THAT IS SOMETHING THE CITY IS PARTNERING WITH THE COUNTY ON.

ALSO THE SOUNDS OF THE COMMUNITY FUTURE GENERATIONS I DON'T KNOW IF MR. VANN IS STILL AROUND. THAT WILL TAKE PLACE AT THE PERCY JIM. WITH JOSEPH RICHARDSON WHO WAS A CHILDHOOD FRIEND. SO THAT IS FROM ONE TO 3:00 P.M.

SO I WILL WANT TO MAKE SURE THE PEOPLE ARE AWARE OF THAT.

AND ALSO I WANT TO SEND US A SPECIAL SHOUT OUT TO THE YOUNG PEOPLE WHO HAD THE GROUNDBREAKING.

IT WAS GREAT TO SEE COMMISSIONER JOHNSON JONAS OVER THERE ALONG WITH MR. MIMS. TO GET THAT PROJECT AGAINST

[03:20:04]

I AM VERY EXCITED ABOUT WHAT THAT'LL BRING TO AVENUE D.

AND I THINK THEY HAVE A VERY CREATIVE CONCEPT GOING FORWARD THAT WILL BEGIN TO PULL THAT COMMUNITY OUT AND ENGAGE AND PROVIDE FOR ENTERTAINMENT FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPRESSED THE ABILITY TO WANT TO HAVE SOME ARTS AND CULTURE AND DIFFERENT THINGS. SO THAT WILL BE PERFECT FOR THAT. JUST REAL QUICK MS. DARDEN IT WAS A PLEASURE TO NOT ONLY BE THERE.

BUT I WENT AND ACTUALLY MET WITH HER AND HAD SOME QUESTIONS FROM THE OLD HISTORY PART TO SEE IF SHE RECOLLECTED.

I HAD A GOOD CONVERSATION AND SHE QUITE CHIMED UP ON THE SCHOOL PART. SHE REMEMBERED THE NAMES CODE AND SHE REMEMBER MR. BOLIN AND A NUMBER OF GUYS I KNEW GROWING UP. SO THAT WAS A REAL GOOD CONVERSATION. AND VACCINATIONS, THEY SEEM TO BE ON THE RISE IN OUR COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW.

WHICH IS GOOD IS GREAT TO SEE THE VETERANS IN THE COUNTY DOING THEIR PART I KNOW THERE'S A COUPLE APARTMENTS AND I KNOW SECOND SHOTS ARE COMING UP AT THE LINCOLN PARK RECREATIONAL CENTER ON THE 13TH. YOU SECOND SHALL BECOME AN UP ON THE 13TH. THIS ROOM IS ABOUT ANOTHER STATE FUNDING VACCINATION COME INTO THE AREA TO SO KEEP YOUR EARS OPEN AS THOSE THINGS COME. MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE COMMUNITY TO GET VACCINATED. AND THEN AS A UNIVERSAL HABIT MR. MIMS, DISC OFF. I SEEM TO RECALL YOU KNOW KINDA SAYING THAT I READ SOMETHING AND HEARD SOMETHING HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT IT IS THE FASTEST-GROWING THING OUT THERE.

AND I THINK THAT WE HAVE A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY OF HAVING A PIECE OF PROPERTY. IT COULD PROBABLY IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT CREATIVELY MAKES USE FOR BOTH TO SERVE BOTH COMMUNITIES. YOU KNOW IT MAY BE AS WE GET INTO THAT. BECAUSE I AM A GOLFER AND I AM FAMILIAR WITH DISC GOLF. THEY DON'T GO AT THE SAME TIME.

BUT CERTAINLY FOR TOURNAMENTS IN PRACTICE WE CAN FACILITATE THAT.

AND THAT IS GOING TO NOW THANK YOU.

>> CAN USE THE SAME COURSE? >> YES YOU CAN I THINK THAT SHE IS TO BE CREATIVELY THINKING. I'M A MARKETER THOUGH.

>> I DON'T EITHER. >> DISC GOLF IS LITERALLY THINK OF A BASKETBALL HOOP WITH NETS AND LITERALLY THEY HAVE IT SITTING ON A STAND AND YOU TAKE A FRISBEE AND YOU MAKE YOUR WAY AROUND THE COURSE. SO INSTEAD OF A PAR FOUR YOU TAKE FORCE US TO GET THE WHOLE IT MAY BE DESIGNED AS A PAR THREE. SO YOU LITERALLY THROW YOUR FRISBEE TO A CERTAIN AREA IT LANDS WITHIN THE ZONE AND THEN YOU TAKE THAT FRISBEE AND MAKE IT TOWARDS THE GREEN WHICH IS THE SURFACE OR WHERE IT IS AND THEN ONCE YOU GET THE FRISBEE INSIDE OF THE CONTAINER WHICH IS MADE OF CHAIN NETS YOU SCORE THAT POINT. SO THE OBJECT OF IT IS TO GET THE FRISBEE INSIDE THE CHAIN-LINK.

AND LESS THAN WHATEVER THE DEEMED SCORE IS FOR THAT HOLE.

IT IS LITERALLY GOLF BUT IT IS WITH THE FRISBEE.

AND THESE GUYS AREN'T PRESENT JUST LIKE THESE GUYS ARE INCREDIBLE AND THE MAKE A CHALLENGE IN.

SOME OF THESE HOLES ARE PUT IN TIGHT SITUATIONS.

IN THE ROOM FOR ERROR IS LIMITED.

AND IT IS VERY COMPARATIVE. SO THE REASON I KNOW THIS IS I HAVE LATE NIGHTS NOW AND I STAY UP WATCHING ESPN AND EDUCATE JUST ONE NIGHT. AND THEY ARE BIG HUGE TOURNAMENTS. LITERALLY THEY ARE THE ONES OR SCENES OR WOODED AREAS THAT'S WHAT TOP.

THEY GO WOODED AREAS YOU MAY HAVE TO NAVIGATE AROUND A TREE OR A PIECE OF WOOD OR SOMETHING AND TO GET TO THAT PARTICULAR POINT. IT IS VERY CHALLENGING.

>> I PLAY GOLF I USUALLY DO THE SAME THING.

>> BUT NOW YOU CAN IMAGINE A FRISBEE.

SEE MAKE IT A LITTLE FURTHER AND YOU HAD YOUR GOLF CLUBS.

>> IT IS RIGHT UP THERE WITH PICKLE BALL.

WHICH IS ANOTHER FAST-GROWING SPORT RIGHT?

>> I FORGOT ONE MORE IF I COULD MAYOR I'M SURE NOT COMMISSION WAS GOING TALK ABOUT NOW. HE AND I WERE ON A GUEST TO THE RIBBON-CUTTING AT THE ST. LUCIE COUNTY FAIR PARK ON FRIDAY.

>> OR WERE YOU GOOD FOR YOU. >> SO THE CHAMBER HAD AN EVENT SOME DIFFERENT AT THE FAIR. SO I BE IN TROUBLE IF I DID NOT TALK ABOUT THE FAIR AND A PROBLEM MASK.

AND I SAY GO VISIT THE FAIR AND CHRISTINE IS OUT THERE WORKING

HARD YOU KNOW. >> YES, I KNOW HER.

SHE IS NEW. >> YES, I KNOW IT IS IAN AUNTIE CHRISTINA CHRISTINA WHICHEVER ONE.

MISS EYECOLOR MISSING AUDI. BUT SHE IS DOING AN AWESOME JOB.

IT IS DIFFERENT OUT THERE. THERE IS A LOT OF MASS BEING WARD AND IS A LETTER MUST NOT BE A ONE.

SO IT IS OUTSIDE, BUT FOLKS ARE EXCITED TO BE MOVING AROUND AND DOING SOMETHING. SO IT WAS ENCOURAGING TO SEE.

[03:25:04]

>> GOOD I'M GLAD THEY WERE ABLE TO HAVE IT I KNOW IS KIND OF IFFY. AND I WAS GOING TO DO A REMIND EVERYBODY ABOUT THE GREAT AMERICAN CLEANUP ON MARCH 13 AND PLEASE REGISTER IF YOU WANT THE T-SHIRT AND THE GLOVES AND ALL THE SWAG THAT GOES WITH IT. AND I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. AND I WANT TO BRING UP I WAS GOING TO BRING UP IN THE IN OVERDRIVE AND I'M GLAD YOU DID AND WERE GOING TO TALK ABOUT IT AND WORKING TO GET SOME STATUS POINT ON THAT I THINK RIGHT? RIGHT ALSO THE ROUNDABOUT IN FRONT OF CHUCK'S. IS NOW HAD TWO ACCIDENTS IN LESS THAN A MONTH. AND THEY ARE BOTH PROBABLY DUE TO BEING OVERSERVED EAST OF THERE.

BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S FOR SURE.

BECAUSE THEY ARE LATE AT NIGHT AND SO I WAS WONDERING IF WE COULD INVESTIGATE WITH THE COUNTY OR INVESTIGATE SOME WAY TO I KNOW. I KNOW THERE ARE REPAIRS BEING DONE RIGHT NOW. BUT SOME WAY TO HAVE THAT SPECIAL LIP OR ANYTHING TO SEE IF WE CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT REDUCING THE TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS AT THAT ROUNDABOUT? NOW, I KNOW WE HAVE HAD SOME EASTBOUND, THAT I'VE GONE INTO DESIGN. AND THEN THESE ARE WESTBOUND AND GONE INTO PRACTICALLY THE BAR AT CHUCK'S.

SO I JUST BRING THAT TO YOUR ATTENTION BECAUSE IT IS CONCERNING. I THINK IT IS THE CONCERN, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE MAGIC WAND IS.

BECAUSE EVEN IF YOU HAD THAT GUARDRAIL YOU COULD HAVE A REALLY, REALLY BAD, I MEAN, YOU COULD CREATE THE SITUATION.

BUT SOMEBODY IS GOING TO BE GOING FAST AROUND THE ROUNDABOUT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE ANSWER IS.

THAT IS FOR TRAFFIC ENGINEERS. >> , MADAME I HAVE TO ADD I THINK OVERALL EFFORT TO BRING THIS UP WE NEED TO ADDRESS SPEED IN OUR TOWN. HE AND OUR CITY.

I GOT A CALL TODAY FROM A RESIDENT AND SOMETHING IS GOING ON HERE. I AM LOOKING AT MARKINGS IN THE STREET WHERE THEY ARE SPINNING OUT THEY HAVE HIT SEVERAL THINGS IN LANDMARKS IN THE COMMUNITY. A COUPLE OF TIMES NOW.

AND I AM NOTICING THE AND I'M HEARING THE ENGINES RUNNING.

AND THEY'RE RUNNING FAST IN THE STREETS THEN THE STREETS ARE MADE FOR. I KNOW IT IS HAPPENING THERE AND IS HAPPENING IN LINCOLN PARK AREA.

I WOULD LIKE TO COMMISSION TO HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH THOSE APPROPRIATE PEOPLE STAFFING TO TALK ABOUT THIS.

BECAUSE WE HAVE GOT TO LOOK AT THIS AND IT IS HAPPENING OVER

THERE. >> TO HEAR FOR TRAFFIC SAFETY? WHAT HAPPENS HOW DO YOU PREVENT IT? WHAT IS THE NORMAL WAY? WE JUST NEED TO BE EDUCATED?

>> WE JUST WRITING TICKETS. >> WE JUST WRITING THE TICKETS.

>> THAT WOULD DO IT FOR ME. I THINK THAT IS ALL FOR TONIGHT I THINK WE'VE COVERED ALL THE IMPORTANT SUBJECTS.

I DO WANT TO HEAR ABOUT WHAT WE ARE DOING ABOUT TICKETS HERE.

I KNOW IT IS A JOKE AND WE ARE LAUGHING BUT IS NOT A JOKE AND I WANT TO HEAR WHAT WE'RE DOING NOW.

PERHAPS IF WE HAVE ANY PLANS FOR THE FUTURE.

>> WE WILL FOLLOW UP ON THAT. WE DID HAVE A PLAN.

AND IS PROBABLY TIME NOW TO RESUME THOSE OPERATIONS.

>> YES OKAY. >> DO YOU HAVE A PLAN FOR

CHICKENS? >> WE HAD VOLUNTEERS IN THE COMMUNITY AND THEY WERE COLLECTING CHICKENS.

>> AND THEN WE DID PERMIT WE HAD A WHOLE PROCESS OF PERMITTING.

>> WE PERMITTED CHICKEN COOPS NOT FREE RANGE.

>> NO NOT FREE RANGE BUT WE HAD PROCESS AND AT ONE TIME WE WERE OFFERING BOUNTIES FOR CHICKENS. SO I JUST KIND TO WANT TO

REFRESH MY MEMORY. >> NET GUNS THAT CATCH THE

CHICKENS. >> I DON'T THINK WE USE THOSE.

I THINK WE INVESTIGATED IT. >> WE USE AS A COUPLE TIMES YET.

HE HAD ALL THE EQUIPMENT. >> WE NEED TO ADJOURN BUT YOU
