[a. Final Planned Development - Gordy Creek Parcel ID(s): 2326-130-0000-000-7, 2326-130-0000-010-0 ]

>> ALL RIGHT. ONTO NEW BUSINESS. ITEM 6A, FINAL PLANNED

DEVELOPMENT , GORDY CREEK. >> THANK YOU. TO THE BOARD -- WE ARE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT GORDY CREEK, A REZONING TO A FINAL SITE PLAN. WE WILL GO THROUGH THIS , THE GORDY CREEK DEVELOPMENT PD IS A REZONING FOR THE FINAL APPLICATION OF THE PD SITE PLAN. 179 SINGLE FAMILY, 138 TOWNHOME UNITS. YOU WILL SEE IN A MINUTE, THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON THE GRITTY SIDE OF -- WE ARE ADJACENT TO THE TURNPIKE AREA. ABOUT 76, 77 OR 78 ACRES.

TURNPIKE 95. I HAVE TAKEN A BIT OUT OF THE STATEMENT FOR THE APPLICANT. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE LOCATION, IT IS VERY , QUITE A PRETTY AREA. A LARGE AMOUNT OF NATURAL ENVIRONMENT.

ALSO ADJACENT TO THE 10 MILE CREEK. THERE IS A WETLAND ALSO INCORPORATED IN THE DEVELOPMENT. THAT IS PRESERVED. THE CREEK THAT RUNS THROUGH ACTUALLY ACTS AS A FOCAL POINT. I MEAN, SORT OF PUTS TOGETHER THE INTENT OF THE DEVELOPMENT HERE. THAT WAS 1.36 ACRE LAKE. THIS IS SURROUNDED BY A TRAIL. THIS CREATES PASSIVE ACTIVITIES IN THE PROJECT. IT WILL ALSO ENGAGE WITH THE EDUCATIONAL NATURE OF THE AREA. BOTH FOR THE PUBLIC AND THE COMMUNITY. THE ACCESS TO THE AREA IS FACILITATED THROUGH A SEPARATE ENTRYWAY, ACCESSIBLE FROM GORDY ROAD. WE HAVE DESIGNATED PARKING AVAILABLE FOR THE PUBLIC BUT I THINK THE APPLICANT WILL HAVE A WIDE REACH ARRANGING PRESENTATION. WE WILL TALK ABOUT WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING HERE.

IN A MOMENT, WE HAVE A FEW CHALLENGES OF MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT. THE MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT LAND USE DESIGNATION TO THE NORTH. AND THEN A LOT OF SORT OF RESIDENTIAL AND PUBLIC AREAS TO THE SOUTH. THERE IS SOME RESIDENTIAL, ESSENTIALLY, THIS IS LOCATED CLOSE TO THE SECTION OF THE INTERSTATE HERE.

NOW, THE ZONING STANDS AT AGRICULTURAL. THE CITY DOES NOT HAVE AN AGRICULTURAL ZONING DISTRICT -- DISTRICT WITH THIS PROPERTY WAS TAKEN IN AND GIVEN A MIXED-USE FUTURE LAND USE. AT THAT TIME, IT SHOULD HAVE , UNDER STATE LAW, AND PROVIDED

[00:05:06]

WITH THAT SITE PLAN IS A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FINAL SITE PLAN WHICH TAKES INTO THE FACT THAT A LOT OF THE DOCUMENTATION , APPLIED WITH PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH THIS APPLICATION. REVIEWED BY INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL AGENCIES. THAT IS GONE THROUGH THE TECHNICAL COMMITTEE. THIS IS WHY IT IS HERE WITH YOU TODAY. WE HAVE IT IN A PLACE WHERE WE ARE RECOMMENDING APPROVAL FOR THIS. WITH THAT, THERE IS A FINAL SITE PLAN FACING ALLOCATION. YOU CAN SEE, THIS MIGHT NEED SOME AMENDMENT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PLAN IS TO START DATE. IF IT IS STILL THIS YEAR, BUT WILL NEED TO CLEAN THAT UP FOR THE APPLICANT. THIS HAS BEEN IN THE SYSTEM FOR SOME TIME. THE REVIEW PROCESS, AND ALSO THROUGH A TRANSITION FROM ONE STAFF MEMBER TO ANOTHER. THESE TIMELINES MAY HAVE SLIPPED. BUT YOU CAN SEE THE PHASING RUNS THROUGH THE CENTRAL OF THE PROPERTY. PHASE ONE INTO THE EASTERN SIDE. IN WAS A SPLIT OF TOWNHOMES AND SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL. SO WITH THE APPLICATION WE DID RECEIVE SOME ARCHITECTURAL STATE STATUTE RESTRICTING WHAT THE CITY CAN DO WITH ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN FOR RESIDENTIAL. -- IN THE TOWNHOME ARCHITECTURAL'S. IN TERMS OF THE SINGLE-FAMILY, THE STATE MANDATE THAT WE KEEP OUR FINGERS OUT OF IT. WE ARE PLEASED , YOU KNOW, THAT THE PROPOSAL INCORPORATES RECENT DESIGNS IN THEM. OVERALL, STAFF RECOMMENDED THE PLANNING BOARD OF THE PROPOSED REZONING OF THE GORDY CREEK FINAL PLAN DEVELOPMENT AND SITE PLAN TO THE CITY COMMISSION WITH THE RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL. SO TO GET TO THE GORDY CREEK PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, THIS INCLUDES SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF DEVELOPMENT ON THE TIMETABLE OF DEVELOPMENT . WE JUST DID SPECIAL CONDITIONS OUT. THESE MAY BE ADDED TOO. OR DEPENDING ON WHAT WE ARE TELLING THE BOARD HAS PROPOSED BUT I THINK THERE ARE 11 RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS. I CAN GO THROUGH THOSE IF YOU WISH OR WE CAN TALK ABOUT THOSE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THEM. ESSENTIALLY, THEY LOOK AT HOW THE PHASING IS GOING , AND SHRINK THE PHASING IS WHOLE IN TERMS OF PROVIDING THE NECESSARY INFRASTRUCTURE . THAT IS IN PLACE. THAT'S FOR BOTH PHASES. WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE. THERE IS SOME ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS, MAY BE PERMITS. AGAIN, THE CITY CANNOT HOLD A DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL BASED ON CLIMATE OF PERMITS. BUT WE DO POINT THESE OUT TO APPLICANTS. IS TO ENSURE THEY ARE AWARE OF THOSE IN THE MOVING PRIOR TO THE BUILDING PERMIT. THE BUILDING PERMIT, SOME OF THESE WILL BE REQUIRED FOR A BUILDING PERMIT. STATE STATUTE , AGAIN, IT TELLS THE CITY THEY SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRING CERTAIN PERMITS TO BE IN PLACE. TO ISSUE APPROVAL. WE PUT THE CONDITIONS IN THE MAINLY HAVE INFORMATION FOR THE APPLICANT, AND TO ENSURE THAT WE , IF THERE IS ANYTHING IN THE FUTURE THAT DISPUTES THOSE, THAT WE ACTUALLY POINTED THOSE OUT. AGAIN, TITLE. ALL OF THOSE GOOD THINGS IN TERMS OF CONTROL AGREEMENTS, PROVISIONS , COVENANTS, ET CETERA. AND THEN 37, THREE MITIGATION THRESHOLDS WILL BE PERFORMED PRIOR TO BUILDING PERMITS. THEY COULD

[00:10:01]

>> THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. I WILL TURN IT OVER TO THE BOARD. ANY

QUESTIONS FOR COUNTY STAFF? >> YOU HAD THE GROSS ACREAGE 76.

97 AND THE LAKE WAS 6. 58. THERE WAS A EARLY NUMBER. THERE WAS

1.36. WHAT WAS THAT NUMBER? >> I THINK THAT WAS THE LAKE.

1.36 FOR THE LAKE. >> THE LAKE? OKAY. THANK YOU.

>> THERE IS A WETLAND AREA AS WELL AND I THINK THAT CAN BE A DIFFERENT NUMBER.

YEAH, I'M SURE THE APPLICANT CAN TELL US MORE FULLY IF NEED

BE. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? HEARING ON, I WOULD LIKE TO INVITE THE APPLICANT TO COME FORWARD. GIVE US A BRIEF PRESENTATION BUT I THINK WERE ALL VERY INTERESTED TO SEE WHAT YOU HAVE IN STORE FOR US IN SHARING THIS. THANK YOU.

>> PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU SIGN IN AND STATE YOUR NAME, PLEASE.

>>

>> GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYBODY. GEORGE -- FOR THE RECORD HERE TODAY. I AM THE APPLICANT AND WE HAVE SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE CHAMBER, INCLUDING THE SWANSON LAND COMPANY AS WELL AS -- FROM MILLS AND SORT. THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER WAS WITH ENGINEERING AND PLANNING. I WILL SKIP OVER SOME OF THE INFORMATION THAT WAS COVERED IN KEVIN'S VISITATION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THE BASIC PROJECT LOCATION, JUST WEST OF THE TOWN POINT, SOUTH OF -- ROAD. THE PROPERTY WAS ANNEXED SOMEWHERE AROUND 2004, 2006 AND IT WAS NEVER ASSIGNED CITY ZONING FOR THE LAND-USE DESIGNATION CARRIED OVER FROM THE COUNTY IS CONSISTENT WITH THE CATEGORY HERE AT THE CITY SO WE DO NOT NEED TO AMEND THAT WAY REQUESTING TO AMEND THE ZONING TO PD. THE PROPOSAL IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DENSITY OF -- YOU KNOW, WE SEE THE USE AS BEING VERY CONSISTENT AND NECESSARY IN THE AREA WITH SOME OTHER SURROUNDING USES. A LITTLE BIT CLOSER VIEW, A COLOR LYSED VERSION TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE MORE PERSPECTIVE. I REMAIN ACCESS IS OFF OF GORDY CREEK ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY WHICH LEADS UP TO -- WROTE.

THERE ARE SOME MODERN IMPROVEMENTS THAT WILL NEED TO BE MADE TO SOME OF THE COUNTY RIGHT OF WAYS. JUST MAKING SURE WE ARE MEETING ALL NECESSARY REQUIREMENTS. WE HAVE A TOTAL OF 316 UNITS WHICH IS ABOUT 206 UNITS PER ACRE. ONE REALLY GREAT FACT OR PART ABOUT OUR SITE PLAN IS THE WETLAND PRESERVE AREA ALONG 10 MILE CREEK THAT IS MORE THAN 17 ACRES. AS AN ADVOCATE PORTION OF THE SITE WE ARE ABLE TO PRESERVE AND PROTECT. WE HAVE PERIMETER FENCING ALONG THE AREA WITH LANDSCAPE OFFERING TO MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO IMPACT. WE'RE PROVIDING A PUBLIC BOARD BACK AS PART OF WHAT KEVIN WAS GOING INTO ON THE NORTH END OF THIS PROPERTY. YOU SEE A LITTLE LAKE THERE AT THE TOP OF THE SCREEN.

THAT IS THE 1.36 ACRE LAKE FRONT THERE'S A PUBLIC SIDEWALK GOING AROUND THAT. THAT GOES DOWN TO THE LITTLE PRESERVE LOOKOUT POINT THERE. THAT WOULD BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. THERE IS A SMALL PARKING AREA THAT WOULD BE OPEN THAT COULD BE ACCESSED AT THAT POINT. ONE OF THE PUBLIC BENEFITS AND WHAT WE TRY TO INCORPORATE INTO OUR SITE'S DESIGN. THERE IS THE PHASING PLAN WHICH KEVIN MENTIONED THAT UP WITH ABOUT ÷107 OR SO IN PHASE ONE. ABOUT 140 OR SO IN PHASE TWO WITH THE MESH OF

[00:15:02]

AGAIN, HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. I DID WANT TO ASK ABOUT SECONDARY ACCESS TO THE COMMUNITY. YOUR PRIMARY ACCESS IS ALONG GORDY ROAD. TO HAVE ANY KIND OF SECONDARY ACCESS INTO

THE DEVELOPMENT? >> I THINK THERE IS AN EMERGENCY ACCESS POINT ON HERE. LET ME JUST GO UP A LITTLE BIT MORE.

HERE IS THE OTHER ACCESS POINT TO GORDY, A LITTLE BIT FURTHER.

IT IS NOT OUR MAIN ENTRANCE. I THINK WE MIGHT BE, IT MIGHT BE OPEN IN TERMS OF PRESIDENCY CAN USE IT. IT IS A SECONDARY EXIT

POINT. >> DOES GORDY ROAD CONNECT TO ANYTHING ON THE SOUTH OTHER THAN WITH THE CONNECTION RIGHT NOW.

YES, PLEASE. HERE YOU GO. >>

>> GORDY CREEK ROAD WAS OVER A BRIDGE AND IT DOES NOT CONNECT

ALL THE WAY DOWN. >> THANK YOU.

>> ALL RIGHT. I'VE A QUESTION. THE PRESERVE ACCESS. DO THE

RESIDENTS HAVE ACCESS? >> YEAH, THERE ARE COUPLE OF ACCESS POINT. THERE IS ONE IN THE NORTHWESTERN CORNER. YOU CAN SEE IT GOES UP FROM THE LITTLE CIRCLE HERE AND CONNECTOR THAT WOULD BE A GATED POINT THERE TO PREVENT MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC FROM ENTERING THE COMMUNITY AT THAT LOCATION.

>> HOW ARE YOU GOING TO LIMIT THE ACCESS FROM THE OUTSIDE?

>> INTO THE COMMUNITY, THERE IS A GATE .

>> A PEDESTRIAN GATE. >> IT IS A LOT PEDESTRIAN GATE

TO THAT PUBLIC BOARDWALK. >> ALSO TO NOTE, THERE IS THE -- SOUTH AS WELL. THE PUBLIC ACCESS THE BRIDGE TO 10 MILE CREEK. IF YOU CAN SEE THAT HERE. I BELIEVE IT IS -- PARK?

>> YEAH, THAT IS WHAT I WAS TRYING TO, I KNOW OF THE PARK. I JUST CANNOT FIGURE OUT EXACTLY WHERE IT WAS ON THE MAP. THANK

YOU. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE

APPLICANT? >> IS THERE ACCESS TO 10 MILE

CREEK FROM YOUR PLAN? >> THERE IS NOT. WE ARE PROTECTING IT . I THINK IT WAS LOOKED AT ONE POINT, BUT THE PROMOTING AND REGULATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH GOING THROUGH AND IMPACTING THE RESERVE, ULTIMATELY, IT IS TOO MUCH DAMAGE IF WE WERE PROVIDING ANOTHER ACCESS POINT TO COME OFF THERE.

>> DO ALL HAVE A SCHOOL BUS STOP INSIDE THAT LOCATION? OR IS IT

OFF OF GORDY ROAD? >> IT WOULD BE OUTSIDE.

>> IS A ON GORDY ROAD?

THERE IS NO WAY TO PREDICT? >> THIS SWANSON , CAN YOU PLEASE SPEAK INTO THE MICROPHONE? THANK YOU.

>> I BELIEVE THE BUS TURNAROUND WAS THE -- AREA. AND TO THE SOUTH, THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC ON GORDY AT THAT POINT IS VERY, VERY LOW. THAT IS WHY WE DECIDED IT MADE THE MOST SENSE TO LEAVE IT ON GORDY ROAD. TO CREATE, YOU KNOW, KIND OF THAT IN THE AREA.

[00:20:13]

TECHNICAL REVIEW? >> I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING, NO.

>> I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING. >> I MEAN, IT IS A FREQUENT COMMENT THAT WE DO SEE FROM THE SCHOOL BOARD WHEN THEY ENGAGE IN THE TECHNICAL REVIEW.

WE LIKE TO HAVE A PLACE FOR THE BUSES TO TURNAROUND SO THEY ARE NOT HAVING TO TURN ON GORDY IN THIS SITUATION. AND ALSO, YOU KNOW, MOST OF US ARE PRETTY PARTIAL TO HAVING SOME KIND OF COVERED WAITING SPOT FOR THE KIDS AT A BUS PICKUP LOCATION.

SO WE MAY CHOOSE TO RECOMMEND SOMETHING TO THAT DEGREE.

>> IF GORDY ENDS , HOW TO THE BUSES GET OUT OF GORDY?

>> WITH A TURNAROUND. I CAN PICTURE IN MY HEAD GOING OVER 10 MILE CREEK , HOW IT TERMINATES AND HOW EXACTLY TERMINATES SOUTH BUT I DO NOT RECALL IF THERE IS A FULL TURNAROUND THERE. THAT WOULD BE MAYOR HUDSON THREE ROAD. IT WOULD BE ON THE SOUTH

SIDE OF THE ENTRANCE. >> THAT SEEMS RATHER DANGEROUS TO ME.

CONCERN. I HAVE TROUBLE MYSELF. I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN AND WE ARE HAPPY TO LOOK AT THE ENTRANCE AND THE TURNING RADIUS AGAIN TO MAKE SURE WE ARE MAKING THE BEST DECISION.

>> IT IS AN ISOLATED AREA. AT 6:00 IN THE MORNING IT IS DARK AND FOGGY OUT THERE. THAT CONCERNS ME A LOT.

>> I CAN TAKE A LOOK AT THAT. >>

>> ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT?

>> ARE YOU ABLE TO GO BACK TO THE ARCHITECTURAL?

>> MISS SWANSON, YOU NEED TO SPEAK IN THE MICROPHONE, PLEASE.

>> THESE ARE PROJECTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY CONSTRUCTED IN THE CORRIDORS. THESE ARE PROJECTS THAT ARE ALREADY IN THE CITY AND HAVE BEEN CONSTRUCTED.

>> HOW FAR , HOW FAR DOES IT EXTEND IN THE DOORWAY?

>> I DO NOT HAVE THE ARCHITECTURAL'S WITH ME. I AM SORRY, I AM NOT ABLE TO ANSWER THAT WITH CERTAINTY AT THIS POINT. WE CAN CERTAINLY PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION. THIS IS FROM

THE TIDEWATER COMMUNITY. >> I'M KIND OF WONDERING AS FAR AS -- CONSTRUCTION. IS THERE A REASON WHY?

>> TO BE HONEST , YEAH, THE CODES USUALLY MAKE THEM CHALLENGING TO ADD-ON WITH SETBACKS.

>> ALL RIGHT. ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? FROM THE BOARD? HEARING NONE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AT THIS TIME, I WILL TURN HER OVER TO THE PUBLIC. IF THERE'S ANYBODY WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS APPLICATION, PLEASE COME FORWARD. SEEING NONE, I WILL SEND IT BACK TO THE BOARD ONE LAST TIME FOR ANY FINAL QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, CONCERNS.

IF I COULD SUM UP, I THINK WE ARE A LITTLE BIT , A SHARED DESIRE TO SEE A SECOND LOOK AT THE POSSIBILITY OF THE BUS TURNAROUND. LET'S CONSIDER THAT AS AN ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATION.

ANY EMOTIONS? OH . >> THANK YOU. I HAVE THE BENEFIT

[00:25:06]

USED AS SUCH. >> SINCE YOU ARE BACK UP HERE, I HAD WRITTEN THIS DOWN BUT FORGOT ABOUT IT. KEVIN MENTIONED ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS. ANY DISCUSSION WITH THE COUNTY? COULD YOU SUMMARIZE THOSE FOR US ? WHAT YOU HAVE PLANNED

>> THEY ARE REQUIRING US TO IMPROVE THE CROSS-SECTION TO CURRENT COUNTY STANDARDS WHICH WE HAVE INCLUDED IN OUR PLAN. WE ALSO MET WITH THE D.O.T. AND DISCUSSED, AT ONE POINT, THAT ACCESS CONCERNS OFF -- THEY WANTED US TO LOOK AT THAT BUT WE LOOKED EAST AND WEST HAVE ADDRESSED ALL OF THE D.O.T.

CONCERNS. ACCESS MANAGEMENT CONTROL. I'M GOING TO SAY APPROVAL, BUT I BELIEVE IT IS MORE CONDITIONAL APPROVAL AT THIS POINT FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS, AND ALSO WITH THE COUNTY. FOR

THE CROSS-SECTION. >> THERE IS THE FUNCTIONALLY USED TURNAROUND, ALBEIT NOT , MAYBE NOT A --

>> THIS IS TO THE SOUTH? >> TO THE SOUTH. IMMEDIATELY TO THE SOUTH. IF YOU LOOK A LITTLE TO THE WEST, THAT IS THE DRIVEWAY TO THE CONTINUED LAUNCH.

>> IS THERE TO BE A TURNAROUND CLOSER TO

>> THAT IS NOT VERY FAR AWAY. THAT IS THAT THE PROPERTY BOUNDARY FOR THE SITE. A TURNAROUND LOCATION.

>> SO THE BUS WOULD PICK UP OR DROP OFF AT THE --" THE

PROPERTY? >> I'M NOT SURE, KEVIN, IF YOU ARE ABLE TO MEASURE? IT IS THE SOUTHERN, YOU SEE THE 10 MILE CREEK PRESERVE AREA.

>> LESS THAN HALF A MILE. >> I AM THINKING, PERHAPS, ADDRESSING THAT ROADWAY. ADDRESS THAT WITH THE OTHER ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS CONSIDERING THAT MIGHT BE THE LOW HANGING FRUIT.

THE YELLOW LINE. >> YEAH, I THINK THAT WOULD PROBABLY BE THE ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE NEED TO BE LOOKED AT AS FAR AS FEASIBILITY.

>> IT APPEARS THE DOUBLE YELLOW LINE AND BEFORE THE CURB CUTS.

IN THIS PICTURE, YOU SEE THERE IS PARKING. YES. IT DEFINITELY NEEDS SOME ROADWAY. AND A FUN, FIVE -- IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN, THE PROPERTY SOUTH OF THE BRIDGE IS IN ST. LUCIE COUNTY.SO WITH THAT PROJECT, THERE WOULD BE A WIDE GAIN OF THAT BRIDGE.

HONESTLY, THAT WOULD INCLUDE -- ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS.

>> SO THAT TURNAROUND IS PART OF THE PARKING FOR THE CANOE?

>> I BELIEVE SO. I BELIEVE THE PARKING FOR THE CANOE DROP OFF IS ANTERIOR TO THE CANOE DROP OFF AREA. THERE

IS PARKING , CORRECT, CORRECT. >> SPEAKERS ] THAT IS A ST. LUCIE ROAD CONCERN. I CAN DEFINITELY ORDINATE WITH THEM.

>> WITH ME SITTING UP HERE, I'M THINKING THAT WOULD BE A CONCERN EVERY MORNING WHERE THE BUSES COME IN TURNAROUND AND FOR THE PARENTS. I DO NOT THINK THAT IS SAYING IT IS ST. LUCIE .

>> I AM SAYING IT IS SOMETHING WE WOULD NEED TO COORDINATE WITH ST. LUCIE TO ADDRESS THAT ROADWAY ISSUE. I CANNOT UNILATERALLY, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WILL OR WILL NOT

[00:30:02]

THOSE. >> JUST AS I SAID, I AM ABLE TO TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR DEVELOPMENT? THERE IS A TURNAROUND INSIDE OF THE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE -- VERSUS RELYING ON THAT ROAD AND THAT TURNAROUND, THE HALF-MILE. TO GO BACK DOWN, TURNAROUND.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> GOOD AFTERNOON. SO WE HAVE DESIGNED THE ENTRANCE OF THE SUBDIVISION TO ALLOW FOR A LARGER VEHICULAR TURN. THERE ARE STILL SOME DETAILS OF THE GATES WILL HAVE TO FLUSH THROUGH IN THE FINAL DESIGN. WE HAVE REVISIONS THERE AT THE ENTRANCE FOR A BUS TO BE ABLE TO TURN AROUND. THERE ARE SOME MODIFICATIONS WE CAN DO TO ADDRESS THAT CONCERN. THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. GO AHEAD.

>> IS THERE ANYWAY WE CAN HAVE THESE -- THE SCHOOL BOARD CONTACTED TO MAKE SURE THIS HAS BEEN LOOKED AT APPROPRIATELY

FROM THEIR VIEWPOINT? >> THEY WILL REACH OUT AGAIN. -- NOTIFICATION SYSTEM. THEY ARE PART OF THE TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE TOO. AND I THINK THEY DO HAVE A SEAT TO ADVISE THE

BOARD . >> OKAY, THANK YOU. WE WILL DO

THAT. >> ALL RIGHT.

>> COMMENTS AT THIS TIME, I WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

>> I WILL FOR APPROVAL WITH THE PREVIOUSLY STATED 11 CONDITIONS AND ONE ADDITIONAL CONDITION THAT THE TURNAROUND BE READDRESSED APPROPRIATELY ENTERTAINED AND LOOKED AT.

>> SECOND. >> WOMEN MOTION TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL WITH 12 CONDITIONS. A SECOND BITE MR. EDWARDS. PLEASE

CALL THE ROLL. >>

>> I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO CONTINUE SPEAKING.

[b. Final Planned Development and (Phase 1) Site Plan - Millcreek 2407-124-0001-000-3 ]

>> FOUR OUT OF FIVE TODAY WHICH I THINK IS DECENT.

>> THIS APPLICATION IS FOR THE FINAL PD PHASE OF MILLCREEK PREVIOUSLY APPROVED DEVELOPMENT . THIS IS A FINAL SITE PLAN SO IT INCORPORATES A LOT OF TECHNICAL DETAILS WHICH WERE REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE.

AGAIN, NO SCHOOL DISTRICT OR SCHOOL BOARD COMMENTS COMING ON.

THE APPLICATION AMENDS THE MILLCREEK ZONING IN RESPECT TO ONE PARCEL OF APPROXIMATELY 62. 51 ACRES. THE SITE, AS YOU WILL SEE, THAT IS GENERALLY NORTH OF -- AVENUE WEST OF 41ST STREET.

THIS INCLUDES MILLCREEK PD PHASE ONE FINAL SITE PLAN. THE PHASE ONE AREA IS THE PORTION HERE. 62. 5 ACRES . THE FRONT PORTION IS PRIMARILY COMMERCIAL. THAT WILL BE OF FAITH COMMITMENT LATER. SO THIS PHASE OF THE FINAL PLAN DEVELOPMENT SITE PLAN IS FOR 439 DWELLING UNITS CAN WE HAVE A SPLIT BETWEEN 309 TOWNHOMES AND 130 DETACHED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES WITH THE ULTIMATE DENSITY OF THIS PHASE IS 7. 1 UNITS PER ACRE. THAT IS BELOW THE ALLOWED UNITS PER ACRE. IT ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON ORANGE AVENUE TO THE SOUTH. THE PRIMARY CONNECTION TO THE MAJOR ROAD NETWORK IS FROM ORANGE AVENUE BETWEEN JENKINS ROAD AND HARTLAND ROAD. THE EXISTING AVENUE OF ORANGE CREEK AND -- DRIVE. THE PROPOSED PROJECT

[00:35:03]

>> ALIGNS WITH NORTH 43RD STREET. THAT IS THE AREA OF PHASING. AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL, INDUSTRIAL TYPE USES AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE SITE. I WILL PULL OUT ONE OF THOSE. I WANT TO LOOK AT THOSE FOR INFORMATION ON THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST AND THE SOUTHWEST CORNERS. WE DO HAVE AN INDUSTRIAL TYPE ACTIVITY GOING ON IN THE NORTH EASTERN CORNER.

THIS PROPERTY WAS ANNEXED IN AS PART OF AN -- AGREEMENT. IT IS INDUSTRIAL COUNTY. IF ANYTHING IN THE FUTURE HAPPENED ON THIS SITE, ON THIS PROPERTY, HE WOULD BE REQUIRED TO HAVE A SITE PLAN AND REZONING IN THE CITY ZONING CRITERIA. THE CHANGES THROUGH HERE WOULD BE ADDRESSED THROUGH THE APPLICATION ALL SITE PLAN.

THAT IS WHAT IS IN LOCATED IN THE AMENDMENT. THERE IS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF TREES THAT I DO NOT KNOW HOW MANY WILL BE RETAINED IF THEY ARE ON THIS PROPERTY OR ON THE DEVELOPMENT, THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT. ON THE SOUTHWEST SIDE, WE HAVE A LARGE POND. AND IN FRONT OF THAT INTO THE WEST , WE HAVE A PARKING AREA AND A TRIP SO -- SALES THAT GOES ON. THAT IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE .

FOR FINAL SITE PLAN FOR PHASE ONE IS SHOWN THERE. A MIXTURE OF TOWNHOMES AND SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES. THERE ARE, I THINK, FOUR LAKES IN HERE. SO THAT ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS AND ROLLED, EASTBOUND, AUTHORITY BY TRANSPORTATION. THAT WILL BE DONE AT TIME OF DRIVEWAY PERMITS. THE LENGTH WILL BE DETERMINED AND APPROVED ACCORDINGLY BY THE BOARD OF TRANSPORTATION. WESTBOUND, AGAIN, SUBJECT TO THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION DRIVEWAY PERMITS. AGAIN, THE WESTBOUND RIGHT TURN LINE WILL BE BUILT ACCORDING TO THOSE REQUIREMENTS.

AND SHOULD THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION REQUIRE A TRAFFIC SIGNAL , IF IT IS WARRANTED AS PART OF THE APPROVAL, THE APPLICANT WILL -- INTERSECTION OF ORANGE CREEK AND -- DRIVE.

THAT WILL APPLY ACCESS TO THE PHASING INTERNAL TO THE PHASING OF THE FINAL SITE PLAN. THERE ARE THREE FACINGS THAT GO ON. PHASE ONE IS ESSENTIALLY THE PARK IN THE ACCESS PARTS. PHASE TWO, WHEN COMPLETED IN THE CLUBHOUSE WOULD BE TOGETHER WITH PHASE TWO, AND THEN PHASE THREE WOULD COME ON LATER. WE HAVE SOME ARCHITECTURAL'S SUPPLY.

SINGLE-FAMILY. AND THE TOWNHOUSE , THE TOWNHOME. SO THEY ALL INCORPORATE A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT ARTICULATIONS AS ONE OF THE MEMBERS POINTED OUT EARLIER. SORT OF THE DESIGNS DO INCORPORATE PORCHES OR WALK BACKS INTO THEIR AREA.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION FOR THIS IS THE PLANNING BOARD OF THE PURPORTED MILLCREEK PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FINAL STEP INTO THE CITY COMMISSION WITH RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL IS SUBJECT TO THE MILLCREEK TRAFFIC CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT . THAT

[00:40:01]

THE FIRST ONE TO DO WITH PHASING. AND THEN WE HAVE CONFORMITY TO THE CITY CODE OF ORDINANCES. UNITY OF TITLE .

INAUDIBLE ]. THERE ARE A LOT OF DETAILS PROVIDED WITHIN THE APPLICATION ITSELF. THAT IS WHY I AM NOT REQUIRED TO -- WITH THE CONDITIONS THAT WOULD NORMALLY BE APPLIED. THERE ARE NUMBER OF CONDITIONS ALREADY APPLIED TO THE PD WHICH WOULD COVER A LOT OF THE THINGS .

>> THANK YOU, MR. KEVIN FREEMAN. CAN YOU GO BACK, I BELIEVE , IT WAS THE MAIN SITE MAP? IT SHOWED THE ADJACENT PROPERTIES AND

ZONING'S. >> THERE WE GO.

>> OKAY. AND TWO THINGS I WANTED TO LOOK AT HERE. DOWN TOWARD THE BOTTOM RIGHT-HAND CORNER OF THE PROPERTY , WHERE IT MEETS AT ORANGE AVENUE, THAT INTERSECTION THERE. WHAT ROAD IS THAT? IS

THAT HARTMAN ROAD? >> HERE?

>> NO. TO THE STRAIGHT SOUTH OF WHERE YOUR CURSOR IS .

>> OH, STRAIGHT DOWN. THAT THERE? YES.

>> OKAY. AND , SO THE PROPERTY DIRECTLY TO THE NORTHWEST , THE ONES WE SEE AS IO? OR IS THAT 1L ? IN THE WHAT YOU ARE SHOWING IN THE ENLARGED VIEW IS ALSO A COUNTY PROPERTY?

>> THE CITY PROPERTY, IT IS ZONED COUNTY. IT IS AN UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCE. IT HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST FOR THE CITY HAS HAD A UTILITY AGREEMENT WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER. THERE IS A CONDITION WITHIN THAT UTILITY AGREEMENT THAT IF EVER THE PROPERTY BECOMES ADJACENT OR CONNECTED TO CITY BOUNDARIES AND IT MEETS THE ANNEXATION CRITERIA, THEN THE ANNEXATION IS REQUIRED. AT THAT MOMENT, SO IT WOULD BE TAKEN TO CITY COMMISSION FOR ANNEXATION , AT THAT MOMENT, THE CHOICE IS TO APPLY ZONING AND FUTURE LAND USE AT THAT TIME. OR A SIMPLER WAY FORWARD WOULD BE TO RETAIN THE COUNTY FUTURE LAND USE AND ZONING UNTIL SUCH A TIME THAT SITE PLAN REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS.

IT SIMPLIFIES THE SHORT TERM. THE RUNNING OF THESE TYPES OF APPLICATIONS, THEY ARE USUALLY A BLOCK OF APPLICATIONS THAT COME IN AT THE SAME TIME. THEY ARE USUALLY PROCESSED , IN ESSENCE, IF WE ARE THE CITY DECIDED TO GO INTO EACH ONE AND LOOK AT THE FUTURE LAND USE AND ZONING, YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT NEGOTIATING WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS OUTSIDE OF THE AGREEMENT . THE AGREEMENT JUST SAYS THEY SHOULD BE ANNEXED. IT DOES NOT REALLY GIVE THE CITY ANY DIRECTION OF FUTURE LAND USE OR ZONING. WE COULD APPLY THE FUTURE LAND USE AND ZONING WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY LAND USE AND ZONING, BUT IT MAY NOT BE A FULL ANALYSIS OF THAT. IT MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT YOU WANT TO GO. TO GET TO KNOW THAT WOULD BECOME A NONRESIDENTIAL, IN ESSENCE.

>> THANK YOU. >> IN THE FUTURE, IF THINGS HAPPEN ON THESE PROPERTIES, THAT WOULD ALLOW THEM TO, YOU KNOW, THEY WOULD WANT TO DO SOMETHING ELSE. IT WOULD BE SUBJECT TO CITY CODE IN A FUTURE LAND USE AND ZONING APPLICATION.

>> THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? SEEING NONE, I WILL INVITE THE APPLICANT TO STEP FORWARD.

PLEASE TAKE YOUR NAME AND SIGN IN. I'M SURE YOU HAVE A

PRESENTATION FOR US. >> I SHOULD GOOD AFTERNOON, MEMBERS WOULD FOR THE RECORD, TOD MOWERY. I AM WITH THE PROJECT TEAM. I HAVE JASON COUNTRY WHO IS WITH OUR OWNERSHIP. HE IS WITH DREAM FIGHTERS. WILL HAVE DR. RON

[00:45:05]

THERE IS A GATED ENTRANCE. WE PUT IN THE LANDSCAPE ISLANDS THAT ARE ATYPICAL AT THESE ENTRANCES THAT ALSO ALLOWS FOR THE TURNING RADIUS IS FOR TRAFFIC SHOULD THEY COME IN OR DECIDE NOT TO GO INTO THE SITE ITSELF BUT ARE COMING INTO THE DRIVE AREA. THAT WOULD BE THOSE IMPROVEMENTS. THERE'LL ALSO BE AN ACCESS PROVIDER FOR THAT ADJACENT FIVE ACRE PIECE. IT WAS

[00:50:03]

THAT IS SHOWN ON THIS APPROVAL AS WELL. GOING A LITTLE FURTHER INTO THE SITE, WANT TO GIVE YOU A MORE DETAILED VIEW OF THAT ACTUAL INTERSECTION SO YOU CAN GET A FEEL FOR THE DECELERATION LANE IN THE MAIN ACCESS AND THAT ACCESS TO THE NEIGHBORING PROPERTY. YOU'LL SEE A GATED ENTRANCE AT THE TOP AND SEE THE LANDSCAPE ITEMS PUT INTO PLACE WITH THAT. THE DEVELOPMENT ITSELF, YOU WILL SEE WHERE THE SINGLE-FAMILY HOME LOTS ARE.

THERE WILL BE AN EXIT ONLY GOING OUT ONTO OUR MAIN NORTH-SOUTH BOULEVARD ENTRANCE THAT WILL BE THERE. AND DOWN AT THE END, YOU'LL SEE HOW THOSE TURN LANES WERE. THE GEOMETRY. A LITTLE BIT OF THAT IN CASE YOU'RE STANDING LOOKING AT SOME OF THAT BUT I KNOW I TEND TO DO THAT. I ENJOY STUDYING THINGS LIKE THIS. WE CALL THAT PLANNING -- OR SOMETHING, KEVIN. THINGS WE LIKE. LET'S TALK ABOUT SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES FOR 130 SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES WHAT HE SAW BECKER TEXTURE KEVIN PROVIDED SO THAT AGAIN A LITTLE FURTHER IN OUR PRESENTATION. AND 309 TOWNHOMES ARE THESE TOWNHOMES, EVERYTHING IS MEETING CITY OF FORT PIERCE ZONING REQUIREMENTS CAN LEVERAGE EXTENSIVELY WITH STAFF . I FEEL LIKE IT HAS BEEN A FINE DESIGN AND PROGRESS WORKING WITH THE STAFF ON THIS. LOOKING AT THE CLUBHOUSE, A LOT OF THINGS WERE PROVIDED. ON THE LEFT ARE THE AMENITIES WE ARE SHOWING FROM THE POOL DECK. WE ARE PROVIDING -- TRYING TO DO SOME REAL NICE ENHANCEMENTS WITH SOME OF THE LANDSCAPING FOR THAT. AND ALSO PROVIDE A SEPARATE DOG PARK ITSELF BUT WE WILL HAVE THE GROUND IN A POOL AREA FOR THAT. GOING INTO THAT, TO SEE A LITTLE BIT FURTHER, YOU CAN SEE EXACTLY THE DESIGN. THIS IS WHAT WE PROVIDED TO THE CITY. THIS HAS BEEN PART OF THAT APPROVAL PROCESS . POCKET PARKS, WE FELT THEY WERE IMPORTANT AS PART OF OUR OVERALL DEVELOPMENT TO PROVIDE FURTHER SPACES THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. WE HAVE THREE DIFFERENT POCKET PARKS THAT WILL BE THERE. OBVIOUSLY, THERE WILL BE OTHER AREAS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE TOWNHOMES THAT ARE GOING ON THE LAKE. IT PROVIDES FOR WALKING AREAS AND DOING THINGS WITH THESE ARE VERY SPECIFIC THAT WE WANT TO HAVE DESIGNATED ON THE PLAN AND SET UP FOR THAT PARTICULAR USE.

LOOKING AT THE LANDSCAPING, SEVERAL THINGS WERE DONE WITH THIS PROJECT TO MAKE SURE WE WERE TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THE AREA AS WELL AS KIND OF TRYING TO BE MINDFUL OF WHAT MAY OR MAY NOT HAPPEN BOTH TO THE WEST AND TO THE NORTH. SO YOU'LL SEE WE HAVE THE ONE POCKET PARK YOUR ON THE VERY TOP ROW. IF YOU CAN SEE MY ARROW MOVING FOR THAT AREA DIVIDING ADDITIONAL BUFFER.

THAT IS REALLY WHERE THOUGH ONE EXISTING INDUSTRIAL BUILDING IS.

IT IS NOT REALLY USED IN MORE INDUSTRIAL. THAT IS MORE OF AN OFFICE TYPESETTING. FURTHER TO THE EAST, THAT IS SET UP AS A YARD RIGHT UPPER THAT IS IN THE COUNTY. IS THAT WORKS WITH ANNEXATION PROCESS FOR MAZZONI STANDPOINT, THEY WOULD GO THROUGH THAT PROCESS THAT WE HAVE ENHANCED LANDSCAPE BUFFERS ON THE PERIMETER. WE ARE PROVIDING WHAT WAS REQUIRED AS A 15 FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER, BUT WE HAVE GONE BEYOND THAT. MOST ALL OF THE YARDS AROUND HAVE A MINIMUM OF 30 FEET FOR THE PROPERTY LINE. THEY SHOW THE REQUIRED 15 FOOT BUFFER AND THEY HAVE ADDED ANOTHER 15 FEET TO MAKE IT 30. AND IN SOME OF THE AREAS, SUCH AS LSI, FISA MAKERS ARE HERE, THESE RANGE FROM 60 TO ALMOST 85 FEET ON THE WEST. THERE IS A STORMWATER POND THAT IT IS SPROUTING UP TO AND STILL PROVIDING THAT ADDITIONAL. AS YOU CONTINUE TO MOVE UP THE SITE, GOES AGAIN TO ABOUT 60 FEET OF A LANDSCAPE BUFFER ON THAT WEST SIDE. ON THIS WEBSITE HERE, WE ARE DEALING WITH WHAT IS ABOUT 65 TOTAL FEET BEFORE YOU HIT THE LOT LINE. ON THE NORTH SIDE WITH BUFFERS IN THAT PARTICULAR AREA. WE ARE TRYING TO PLAY SENSITIVITY TO WHAT WAS EXISTING, AS WELL AS SOME AREAS THAT COULD PERHAPS BECOME AREAS OF CONSIDERATION. THE BARBARA FIRST CORNER AS WELL YOU WILL SEE THE DESIGN WHERE THE SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES ARE GOING TO GO BACK TO MAKE SURE WE ARE PROVIDING FOR SOME ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPE. THERE IS OFFENSE AS WELL THAT GOES AROUND THE PROPERTY SO NOW WE HAVE LANDSCAPING AND THERE IS OFFENSE INCLUDED. TALKING ABOUT PHASING. KEVIN SHOWED YOU A BLACK-AND-WHITE VERSION OF THAT. MAYBE THIS BETTER HELPS TO LAY OUT AND SHOW YOU HOW EACH OF THOSE PHASES ARE SO YOU CAN SEE PHASE ONE. THE BOTTOM GREEN, PHASE TWO BEING YELLOW, AND THE RIGHT IS PHASE THREE. THE HOMES, DREAM FIGHTERS, NATIONAL HOMEBUILDERS. SOME PEOPLE YOU MAY BE FAMILIAR WITH THE DEVELOPERS WOULD WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU HERE AND IF NOT, YOU'LL BEGIN TO SEE MORE AND MORE DREAM FIGHTERS . VERY WELL ESTABLISHED THERE IN 10 STATES AND 22 MARKETS FOR THEM TO 25 IN HIS RIGHT NOW WITH ABOUT 31,000 HOMES. THIS IS NOT A FLY-BY-NIGHT GROUP WHAT WE LOVE IS WHEN THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE NOAA'S NATIONAL HOMEBUILDERS KNOCKING ON THE DOOR AND SING, YES, WE ARE HERE AND WE WANT TO MAKE THIS PART OF OUR PORTFOLIO.

WE ALSO PROVIDE FOR SENIOR LIVING. SO AS A PUBLICLY TRADED

[00:55:05]

>> THANK YOU, MR. TOD MOWERY.

YOU MENTIONED YOU HAVE BEEN IN THAT D.O.T. FOR A WHILE NOW. IS THERE ANY INDICATION ON THE REPORT FOR REGULARIZATION

REQUIREMENT? >> WHAT THE, I WILL TURN IT BACK TO RON ORTEGA WITH OUR SPECIALIST ON THAT BUT WE DO NOT HAVE ANY DEFINITIVE ON THAT LOCATION.

>> GOOD AFTERNOON. RON ORTEGA FOR THE RECORD. MEMBERS OF THE BOARD. AT D.O.T., THERE IS AN ANALYSIS CALL -- THAT IS THE VERY FIRST STEP IN ORDER FOR US TO GET CONCEPTUAL APPROVAL. AS OF NOW, WE HAVE CONCEPTUAL APPROVAL TO USE THE INTERSECTION AS IS , SUBJECT TO PROVIDING A MORE DETAILED TRAFFIC ANALYSIS AT THE TIME OF FREE PAYMENTS THAT WE NOW HAVE D.O.T.'S BLESSING, FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD, TO USE THAT AS OUR MAIN ACCESS TO THAT IS A REQUIREMENT FOR THE CITY WE HAVE TO PROVIDE.

SO TO MAKE THIS SHORT, WE HAVE D.O.T.'S AUTHORIZATION TO USE THE CENTER SECTION AS OUR MAIN ACCESS. AND WHEN WE GO FOR FULL PERMITS, WE WILL LOOK AGAIN TO SEE IF A PERMIT IS GOING TO BE

REQUIRED FROM THE DEVELOPER. >> AND FOR CLARITY, THE DECELERATION LANE ON EASTBOUND TRAFFIC, THAT IS ALREADY

EXISTING, CORRECT? >> NO, NO

>> EASTBOUND ON THE MEDIAN? >> YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE

LEFT TURN LANE? >> YES. THERE IS A LEFT TURN

LANE BOTH DIRECTIONS. >> YOU TALK ABOUT THE LANDSCAPE BUFFERING WHICH I THINK IS A VERY GOOD IDEA. YOU KNOW, AND YOU TOUCHED ON EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED TO BRING UP. ESPECIALLY WITH THE COUNTY PROPERTIES. OBVIOUSLY, THIS SPORT, YOU KNOW, THERE IS NO CONTROL OVER WHAT COULD POTENTIALLY BE DEVELOPED ON WHICH PROPERTIES. I KNOW OUR , WHAT IS IT? WHAT IS OUR ZONING? LIGHT INDUSTRIAL. RIGHT. NOT A WHOLE LOT OF PERMISSIBLE USES IN THERE THAT YOUR RESIDENTS WOULD BE TOO CONCERNED ABOUT. YOU KNOW, THE LANDSCAPE BUFFERS I THINK ARE VERY CRUCIAL. DID YOU ENVISION ANY ELEVATION CHANGES OR ARE YOU GOING TO HANDLE IT WITH JUST LANDSCAPING?

>> AT THIS POINT, WE ARE SHOWING NORMAL LANDSCAPING TO THAT AREA.

THIS IS THE CHALLENGE. LET ME KIND OF GO BACK TO THIS SLIDE HERE. THIS ONE HERE. IF YOU'LL NOTICE ON THIS SLIDE, I WILL TAKE A LITTLE FURTHER WALK HERE WITH YOU. IF WE HAD TO THE WEST, YOU WILL NOTICE THESE PARCELS --

>> THIS IS IN THE SHAPE OF AN F . THIS WAS ANOTHER PROJECT BROUGHT INTO THE CITY AND YOU'LL SEE SEVERAL ROBBERIES COMING IN AND INITIALLY THERE'S AN IDEA LIGHT INDUSTRIAL WILL BE A TYPICAL USE FOR THIS AREA. AS YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR ENTRANCEWAYS INTO THE COMMUNITY ITSELF IMPORTANT TO HAVE A MORE COHESIVE FEEL WANT TO FEEL LIKE ALL THIS INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY AND CHAIN-LINK BARB WIRE. ALL THE WINDOWS HEADING ALONG. WILL BE

[01:00:09]

KEVIN BROUGHT UP A GOOD COUNTY ZONING IS AS BRAD AND OTHERS, WE START BRINGING YOU PROJECTS, YOU MAY SEE A MORE HEALTHY APPROACH TO GET AWAY FROM LIGHT INDUSTRIAL USES AND MORE TOWARDS RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY BUILDING CONCEPTS . WITH THE IMPROVEMENTS HAPPENING AT WESTWOOD HIGH SCHOOL OFFER SCREEN TO THE NORTH AND THE NEW CAMPUS THERE BUILDING GOING TO SEE MORE PEOPLE THINK WE WANT TO HAVE SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES CLOSER TO THAT. THE IDEA TO THIS PIECE THAT'S NOTED UNDER COUNTY INDUSTRIAL LIGHT ZONING. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WOULD BE A ZONING THAT WOULD REMAIN. YES, WE ARE STILL BEING MINDFUL OF IT AND KEEPING THINGS WITH A HEALTHY BUFFER BUT WERE NOT TRYING TO DO ELEVATION CHANGES . AS MOST OF YOUR ENGINEERS WOULD TELL YOU, SOME OF THE PARCELS. ALTHOUGH RECALLED FLAT FLORIDA WE HAVE RATED CHANGES AND WILL , THERE WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF HILL THEY WILL BE PLAYING WITH AS THEY WORK THROUGH THE STORMWATER CHALLENGES FROM WEST TO EAST.

IT'S INTERESTING TO SEE A MUCH CUT AND FILL THE HAVE TO DO. BUT DOES GIVE THEM OPPORTUNITIES TO MAKE ENHANCEMENTS AS THEY WORK

THROUGH THE PROCESS. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

>> KEEP THAT SLIDE UP. IMMEDIATELY WEST OF THE MILLCREEK PROPERTY IT IS A LIGHT , IS THAT COUNTY ?

>> THE LIGHT BLUE COLOR LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S INSIDE THE CITY LIMITS. IF IT WERE JUST GREEN IT WOULD AXA BE A COUNTY PIECE.

THAT IS IN THERE. YOU WILL SEE TWO THINGS. THIS IS ACTUALLY A STORMWATER POND. IT SHOWS UP UNIQUELY HERE. THAT IS A STORMWATER POND. WE CONTINUE SOUTH THERE'S NOTHING HERE RIGHT NOW EXCEPT AN OPEN AREA AT THE VERY BOTTOM. JUST A GRAVEL DRIVEWAY THEY PUT IN. THEY DID IT PERHAPS WITH PERMITS OR WITHOUT PERMITS WE DON'T REALLY KNOW , THE GRAVEL DRIVEWAY. THE ONLY BUILDING IS STAN MANUFACTURE ON THE FAR WEST, YOU SEE WHERE MY CURSOR IS MOVING. THAT'S THE ONLY BUILDING THAT'S IN PLACE IN THE FAR WEST AREA.

>> ALL OF THE LIGHT BLUE IS UNDER CITY DOMAIN?

>> IT IS. >> CAN YOU FLIP TO MORE OF THE DETAIL OF MILLCREEK? ON THE ENTRANCE, THE MAIN ENTRANCE , YOU HAVE TO THE RIGHT ACCESS TO NEIGHBORING PROPERTY. IS THAT A COUNTY PIECE? THAT'S THE ONLY ENTRANCE INTO THAT PIECE OF

PROPERTY? >> IT IS.

>> INTERESTING . >> WE HAD , AT THE TIME OF ORIGINAL SUBMITTAL OF THE PD BEFORE REZONING AND ANNEXATIONS TO PLACE THERE WERE DISCUSSIONS OF THE OWNERS OF THAT TO SELL THE PROPERTY, TO COLLABORATE, RETAIN OWNERSHIP AND DO JOINT ZONING JUST TO CREATE MORE OF A COHESIVE APPROACH AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE AN INTEREST AT THE TIME. THEY WERE CONCERNED THAT BEING UNDER CITY CONTROL VERSUS COUNTY CONTROL. WE TRY TO SELL HIM ON THE GOOD POINTS. WE TOOK KEVIN , WE HELD HIM UP AND WE TRY TO TALK ABOUT MANY BENEFITS. IT JUST CREATES AWKWARD SCENARIOS , ESPECIALLY IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS IF YOU LOOK AT A ZONING MAP. IF YOUR BOARD CAN'T SLEEP PULL UP THE PROPERTY APPRAISERS MAP. WITH THE MAP THEY HAVE IN THE TOP RIGHT THING CALLED LAYERS. AND WITH LAYERS YOU CAN CLICK FORT PIERCE ZONING VERSUS COUNTY ZONING OR LAND-USE. CLICK ON THAT AND YOU SEE SOME AREAS. ONE PARCEL IS IN, THE NEXT TWO ARE OUT. THE NEXT THREE ARE IN. YOU CAN IMAGINE DIFFERENT WASTE CARRIERS, DIFFERENT POLICE VERSUS THE SHERIFF . IMAGINE YOU'RE ON THE SAME STREET COMPLAINING ABOUT A BARKING DOG AND THEY SAY THAT'S THE COUNTY. THERE MY NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOR. I DON'T CARE. IT'S REALLY, REALLY FRUSTRATING AT TIMES .

WE, AS PLANNERS TRY TO DO OUR BEST JOB TO HELP THE SITUATION .

WE TRY TO FOCUS ON THAT. WE HAVE BEEN HERE FOREVER. THIS IS OUR COMMUNITY AS WELL. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THINGS ARE DONE IN A MANNER WE FEEL GOOD ABOUT, HEALTHY AND PROUD ABOUT. THIS IS ONE WE TRIED OUR BEST BUT NOTHING WAS ABLE TO BE DONE .

>> OKAY AND PLAYING DEVILS ADVOCATE. WHERE WOULD THE SCHOOL

BUS BE? >> OKAY, NOW YOU CAN TALK ABOUT

[01:05:02]

>> ASSUMING THEY REQUEST IT BE ON YOUR PROPERTY YOU HAVE A PLAN

IN PLACE? >> A PLAN IN PLACE, EXACTLY.

THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH. >> HOW MANY RESIDENTS WILL BE IN

THIS PROPERTY? >> PULL UP THE UNITS. LET'S GO TO THE PLAN, THIS REALLY HELPS MAKE SURE. RIGHT HERE, 309 POUNDS ON THE LEFT, 439 TOTAL HOMES. DEPENDING UPON THE NUMBER THAT IS INSIDE EACH HOME, THAT WOULD BE THE NUMBER OF FAMILY

MEMBERS YOU CAN EXPECT. >> I WOULD LIKE TO GO ON THE RECORD AND JUST SAY I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE BUS STOP SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN ORANGE AVENUE. WHETHER IT'S BEFORE THE GATE OR INSIDE THE PROPERTY. UNFORTUNATELY AT FORT PIERCE WE HAVE HAD INCIDENTS WHERE WE HAVE LOST CHILDREN'S LIVES SIMPLY RATHER THAN HAVING THE BUS STOP IN LOCATIONS NOT CONDUCIVE FOR THAT THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO SAY. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A FOUR-LANE ROAD AND IT'S GOING TO BE MUCH LARGER BECAUSE THEY'RE EXPANDING EVERYTHING, MOVING OUT WEST. WERE TALKING ABOUT A LOT OF INDUSTRIAL TRUCKS, BECAUSE THE TRUCK STOPS RIGHT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF 95. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT ON THE RECORD

>> OKAY, THANK YOU. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE

APPLICANT? >> AS FAR AS EMERGENCY ACCESS,

IT'S ONLY FOR EMERGENCY? >> IT IS .

>> SO THERE'S ONLY ONE MAIN ENTRANCE AND EXIT FOR THE

PROPERTIES? >> IT IS. WITH IT BEING A GATED COMMUNITY IT IS SET UP THAT WAY.

>> AND 43RD STREET THERE'S NO ACTUAL ROAD THERE?

>> THERE IS ROADS AND HOMES THERE. I WANT TO MAKE SURE I'M CLEAR THERE. THERE IS NOT A CONNECTION TO DATE SO WE WOULD HAVE TO FINISH THE CONNECTION RIGHT THERE.

>> AND YOU CURRENTLY ON THAT PROPERTY OR WOULD IT BE COUNTY

OR CITY? >> GREAT QUESTION AGAIN. EAST TO WEST HERE. IF KEVIN PULLED UP THE SAN JOSE COUNTY PROPERTY IT ACTUALLY SHOWS THE PARCEL LINES. THIS IS A RIGHT-OF-WAY THAT EXISTS EAST TO WEST AND IS ALSO A RIGHT-OF-WAY NORTH TO SOUTH.

SO WE CONNECT TO THE PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY. WE ARE NOT CONNECTING TO SOMEBODY'S PRIVATE PROPERTY. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? THERE IS A 60 FOOT WIDE EAST TO WEST RIGHT-OF-WAY. SO THAT WE SHOULD , THE CITY OR COUNTY, SHOULD THEY DECIDE TO EXTEND THIS ROAD THEY COULD CONTINUE A ROW DIRECTLY WEST. IF THEY DECIDE THEY WANT TO ALSO DO SOMETHING IN THIS AREA, THEY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS-OF-WAY. THIS ROAD ALREADY COMES DOWN AND IT STOPS RIGHT HERE AT THE EXISTING EAST-WEST RIGHT-OF-WAY . AM I MAKING MYSELF CLEAR? I CAN PULL UP AN AERIAL IF THAT

HELPS. OKAY. >> RIGHT. ANY MORE QUESTIONS FOR

THE APPLICANT? >> THANK YOU MR. MALLERY. AT THIS TIME I'D LIKE TO TURN IT OVER TO THE PUBLIC. IF THERE'S ANY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THAT WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS APPLICATION PLEASE COME FORWARD AT THIS TIME. SEEING NONE I WILL SEND IT BACK TO THE BOARD FOR ANY LAST QUESTIONS, COMMENTS,

CONCERNS ? >> I SHARE THE SAME AS FAR AS

[01:10:01]

SUFFICIENT FOR THESE DWELLINGS? >> WE RELY ON EMERGENCY SERVICES. CONSIDERATION THERE IS CAN ORANGE AVENUE TAKE THAT AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC? THAT IS ABLE TO TAKE THAT AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC THE SECOND CONSIDERATION IS, IF THERE WAS AN OBSTRUCTION AT THEIR ENTRANCE HOW WOULD EMERGENCY SERVICES BE ABLE TO GET IN THERE? SO WE HAVE FEEDBACK ON THE FIRE DISTRICT THAT THE NORTHERN ACCESS WOULD BE ACCEPTABLE AS AN EMERGENCY

ACCESS. >> THERE IS NO ROAD CURRENTLY

THERE IS MY CONCERN. >> IT WOULD BE OPEN TO ALLOW EMERGENCY ACCESS. I THINK WHAT THE DEVELOPER IS PROPOSING IS AN EMERGENCY ACCESS GATE. NORMALLY LOCKS ACCESS THROUGH SPECIAL LOCK SYSTEM FOR THE FIRE DISTRICT, TO THE FIRE DISTRICT.

THAT IS COMMON WITH GATED COMMUNITIES WHERE EMERGENCY ACCESS IS NORMALLY GATED AND LOCKED BUT WITH SPECIAL ACCESS THROUGH A NOX LOCK SYSTEM TO THE FIRE DISTRICT.

>> THIS IS A VERY DETAILED PRESENTATION, THANK YOU FOR THAT, BUT THERE IS STILL NO , WHAT IS THE PLAN FOR THAT ROAD? WHEN WILL IT BE BILLED? HOW DOES THAT WORK? WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT? IT'S NOT NECESSARILY STATED IN THIS PLAN.

>> IT WILL BE INCORPORATED INTO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. THAT WOULD BE INCORPORATED AT A CERTAIN PHASE AND THAT WE NEED TO BE IN PLACE BEFORE THE CERTIFICATION OF OCCUPATION FOR

THE DEVELOPMENT . >> ALL RIGHT. SO, BACK TO THE BUS IDEA TO MR. MALLERY'S POINT, OBVIOUSLY, WE KNOW WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE. I THINK WE SPEAK FOR THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE, THAT'S WHY WE ARE HERE. IS A LOT OF VERY GOOD REASONS, BUT I THINK WHAT MR. MALLERY IS CLARIFYING ULTIMATELY IT IS SOMEWHAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT'S DECISION . IF THEY BUILD A BUS LOOP IN THE SCHOOL DECIDES NO, WE WILL STOP ORANGE AVENUE, WE MADE THEM BUILD IT FOR NO REASON. WHICH IS I THINK ALL THE MORE REASON WHY I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE DOING A BETTER JOB OF GETTING A REPRESENTATION WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT HERE AT

THESE MEETINGS. >> WE ARE REACHING OUT TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THEM SUBMITTING COMMENTS . THEY ARE INVITED TO MULTIPLE MEETINGS AND I CAN'T

MAKE PEOPLE , YOU KNOW? >> I UNDERSTAND. I DON'T KNOW THAT GIVEN THAT IT MAY OR MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE TO ADD THAT AS A CONDITION BUT WE CERTAINLY CAN TRY.

>> YEAH, WE WILL CERTAINLY REACH OUT. IF THE PLANNING BOARD DETERMINES WE SHOULD DO THAT AS PART OF THE FINAL PUSH TO GET SOMETHING BACK, THEN WE WILL TAKE THAT AND WE WILL REACH OUT.

WHAT IT WOULD SAY IS, WE CAN'T GUARANTEE A RESPONSE . BUT IT WOULD BE ON RECORD THAT WE HAVE REACHED OUT.

>> THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. IF THERE'S NO OTHER QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD I WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION AT THIS TIME.

>> TO HAVE CONDITIONS ON THIS ONE?

>> YET THREE STATED CONDITIONS FROM STAFF.

>> I HAVE A RECOMMENDATION FOR STAFF TO REACH OUT TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, AND A RECOMMENDATION THAT THE EMERGENCY ACCESS DETAILS BE MORE FULLY REPORTED IN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.

>> I MOVE FOR THE THREE STATED CONDITIONS AND TWO ADDED

CONDITIONS STATED EARLIER. >> MOTION FOR APPROVAL BY MS.

[c. Site Plan - Treasure Townhomes - 4601 Regina Drive ]

PRESENTATION. >> ALL RIGHT, GOOD EVENING, GOOD AFTERNOON. I'M JUST GOING TO MOVE EAST WITH THIS PROJECT, TREASURE TOWN TOWNHOME SITE PLAN AT 4601 REGINA DRIVE . WHERE THE APPLICANT IS COCHLEAR HERE IN PROPERTY OWNERS IS YOUR HOME TOWNHOME LIKE GOT UPDATED THAT , PARCEL I.D. IS 340-501-0025 0005 . IN SUMMARY THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING THE SITE PLAN REVIEW APPROVAL FOR DEVELOPMENT OF TOWNHOMES AT 4601 REGINA DRIVE .

THE 94 SIMPLE UNITS WILL BE DIVIDED INTO 15, SIX AND SEVEN UNIT BUILDINGS. THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IS LOCATED ON THE PARCEL WITH APPROXIMATELY NINE ACRES. THE FUTURE LAND UNIT OF THE PARCELS DENSITY ARE M ZONING AND SUBMITTING DENSITY ARE FOR .

HERE IS A SITE VIEW OF THE PARCEL. AGAIN, APPROXIMATELY NINE ACRES . FUTURE LAND USE AGAIN IS R M MEDIUM DENSITY. THE ZONING ARE R-4 MEANING ZONED RESIDENTIAL. HERE IS THE SITE PLAN LAYOUT OF THE PROPOSED TOWNHOMES . SOME SITE PLAN DETAILS. AGAIN, THE PARCEL, COMMUNITY CONSISTS OF 94 UNITS SEVEN UNIT BUILDINGS WOULD BE FOUR. 11 SIX UNIT BUILDINGS.

DETAIL ON SITE PLAN ADDITIONAL WOULD BE A FENCE , PARK BENCH, AS WELL AS A LAKE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. THE LANDSCAPE PLAN , SOME LANDSCAPE DETAILS. 37 TREES ARE REQUIRED, HOWEVER THE PROPOSED SITE WILL HAVE 61 TREES WITH ADDITIONAL SCRUBBING .

HERE'S A LIGHTING PLAN TO PROVIDE OVERVIEW DURING THE EVENING TIME. ELEVATIONS OF THE SIX UNIT BUILDINGS FOUR UNITS A THROUGH F . WE HAVE SIDE, REAR ELEVATIONS . AND OF COURSE, TO BRING IT ALL TOGETHER WE HAVE RENDERINGS OF THE PROPOSED TOWNHOME UNITS . AND THE PROPOSED COLOR BOARDS WILL BE PROVIDED DEPENDING ON THE UNIT OF CHOICE. STACK RECOMMENDATION IS APPROVAL FOR THE SITE PLAN WITH THE FOLLOWING SIX CONDITIONS. NUMBER ONE PRIOR TO MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT WHICH IS PROVIDED BY THE CITY WOULD BE SUBMITTED AS WELL AS NOTARIZED.

UPDATED ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SHALL BE REQUIRED. THREE PRODUCT WILL HAVE FLORIDA WILDLIFE COMMISSION FOR THE PERMIT PLACE PRIOR TO CONDUCTING LAND CLEAR OPERATION AS A SUBMITTED ENVIRONMENT ASSESSMENT INDICATES THAT GOES TOWARDS THIS PRESENT

[01:20:04]

SIX ADDRESSES WILL BE SUBMITTED TO THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT FOR ALL UNITS PRIOR TO BUILDING UNIT APPLICATION. ALTERNATE RECOMMENDATIONS WE WANT TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL WITH ADDITIONAL OR MODIFIED CONDITIONS OR TO RECOMMEND

DISAPPROVAL. THANK YOU. >> I BELIEVE I SAW ON THE SITE PLAN SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENTS FOR WEATHERBY ROAD. IN THE CONDITIONS THERE WE TALKED ABOUT SIDEWALK CONDITIONS ON THE SOUTH

SIDE OF THE PROPERTY AS WELL? >> CORRECT. TO BE ON THE BACK

END, THE SOUTH END. >> OKAY.

>> I HAVE A QUESTION. WAS THIS BROUGHT TO US BEFORE AS AN

INNOVATIVE? >> IT WAS NOT BROUGHT TO YOU AS AN INNOVATIVE. THE APPLICATION WAS SUBMITTED AS AN INNOVATIVE DESIGN GOING TO THE TRC PROCESS TRYING TO ADJUST AND ALIGN WITH THE CITY'S CODE THE APPLICANT HAS DECIDED TO MOVE AWAY FROM INNOVATIVE AND JUST PRESENT IT AS STRAIGHT ZONING.

>> THE COMMENTS ON THE TRC ABOUT RESUBMITTING, THIS IS THE

RESUBMITTAL? >> YES. WITH THE PROCESS OF TRC TO PRESENT IT TO PLAN AND BOARD HAVE TO SATISFY ALL TRC COMMENTS, UNLESS THERE CONDITIONAL BASE, WHICH WOULD THEN BE NOTED THAT THE GOING TO BE REVIEWED THOROUGHLY DURING

THE PERMITTING STAGE. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? HEARING NONE, I WOULD INVITE THE APPLICANT TO COME

FORWARD. YOU LOOK FAMILIAR, SIR. >> GOOD AFTERNOON. GEORGE WITH % THE RECORD OR CUTLER HEARING. ON BEHALF OF TREASURE TOWNHOMES.

YEAH, IT'S ON THE SCREEN. >> THERE WE GO. YOU NEED THIS?

>> ALL RIGHT CARRIE DID A GREAT JOB. COVERED REALLY ALL THE MAJOR DETAILS OF THE SITE, I'LL TRY TO KEEP MY PRESENTATIONS DISTINCT TO THE MAIN POINTS. OUR APPLICANT TODAY, TREASURE TOWNHOMES LLC CUTLER AND HEARING WHERE THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS AND LAND PLANNERS AND BV ENGINEERING FOR THE CIVIL ENGINEERS AND WE WORK ENGINEERING WITH THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER. SO, TREASURE TOWNHOMES IS A NEW TOWNHOME COMMUNITY.

NONE AND HALF ACRE SITE LOCATED ALONG WEATHERBY ROAD. EXISTING VENUES IS WHETHER MEDIA AND EXISTING IS R-4 WITH THE BASE DENSITY OF 10 UNITS AND YOU GET UP TO 12 UNITS PER ACRE IF YOU ARE ABLE TO INCLUDE INNOVATIVE DESIGN ELEMENTS. THE SITE WAS ORIGINALLY LOOKED AT FOR SOME OF THOSE INNOVATIVE DESIGN ELEMENTS AND ULTIMATELY WE WEREN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT WORK, WHERE WE COULD INCORPORATE THOSE WITH KIND OF THE TYPICAL TOWNHOME COMMUNITY THAT WE WERE TRYING TO CREATE. SO WE MOVED AWAY FROM THAT REQUEST AND JUST WENT THE STRAIGHT ZONING, NO MORE THAN 10 UNITS PER ACRE. LOOKING AT THE LOCATION OF THE SITE FROM THE GENERAL LAND PLAN, THE SITE IS LOCATED ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF WEATHERBY ROAD. IT'S JUST OFF THE MAIN COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR OFF U.S. ONE. SORT REPRESENTS A GOOD TRANSITIONAL USE INTO A RESIDENTIAL FROM THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR. TO OUR IMMEDIATE WEST IS A MOBILE HOME PARK . IT IS COMMERCIAL. IF AT SOME POINT, UNLIKELY IT'S DIFFICULT TO REDEVELOP MOBILE PARKS TO GET EVERYBODY OUT, BUT IT IS COMMERCIAL ZONING. AND JUST KIND OF A GENERAL PATTERN WITH U.S. ONE YOU'LL SEE IN A REPEATED FASHION. WEATHERBY TOWNHOMES JUST ON THE WESTSIDE VERY CONSISTENT PARCEL SIZE, NUMBER OF UNITS TO WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING. YOU GET TRANSITIONAL USAGE AS YOU MOVE AWAY FROM U.S.

ONE OF THESE TYPES OF TOWNHOME COMMUNITIES IN THE LOWER

RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS. >> A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO YOU ON

[01:25:02]

WE SET THE PROPERTY ASIDE TO MAKE SURE THERE'S ENOUGH RIGHT-OF-WAY FOR POINSETTIA . SOME OF THE SURROUNDING USES, JUST OFF U.S. ONE ANDTHE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR. THAT'S WHY WE ARE LOWER DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO THE EAST. ZONING, LAND-USE WE ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS AND COMPREHENSIVE PLANS FOR RESIDENTIAL MOLD THE FAMILY AS WELL AS R-4 ZONING. LOOKING AT THE SITE PLAN, 24 TOWNHOME UNITS. THERE ARE FOUR SEVEN UNIT BUILDINGS AND 11 SIX UNIT BUILDINGS. WE ARE PROVIDING THE SIDEWALK ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY AS WELL AS SIDEWALK ON THE NORTH AND EAST SIDES OF THE PROPERTY. THE LANDSCAPE BUFFERS WE PROVIDE A MUCH MORE THAN IT'S ACTUALLY REQUIRED BY THE CODE. ON THE WEST WE HAVE MORE THAN 30 FEET ON THE EAST WE HAVE ALMOST 30 FEET. AROUND 27 FEET. I BELIEVE THE CODE MINIMUM IS A 10 FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER AND SUBSTANTIALLY MORE TREES THEN WERE REQUIRED. WHERE PROVIDING INTERNAL 50 FOOT WIDE ROADWAY WHICH WOULD BE A SEPARATE TRACT AND THAT'S MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR THE PAVEMENT OF THE ROAD, STREET TREES AND ALL THE NECESSARY INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WILL BE IN THE ROAD. WHERE PROVIDING PARKING THIS SINGLE CAR GARAGE REFINERS OFTEN OVERFLOW PARKING AND YOU DON'T WANT PEOPLE PARK IN THE STREET FROM EMERGENCY SERVICES STANDPOINT, IT CAN BE A NIGHTMARE. SO TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO ADEQUATE PARKING AROUND THE DEVELOPMENT IS SOMETHING THAT WE FIND IS CRITICAL. SO WE HAVE PROVIDED MORE PARKING THAN IS REQUIRED BY CODE. WE DO HAVE A CENTER STORM WATER FEATURE WHICH PROVIDES A NICE AMENITY TO THE COMMUNITY.

PLENTY OF CIRCULATION AND ACCESS BOTH PEDESTRIAN AND VEHICULAR.

WE HAVE ONE ACCESS POINT OUT TO WEATHERBY ROAD. AND IS COMPLETE CIRCULATION AROUND THE COMMUNITY FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES ACCESS.

TO ANSWER THE SCHOOL BUS QUESTION, THERE IS NO GATES FOR THE COMMUNITY SO THERE'S NOTHING RESTRICTING A SCHOOL BUS FROM COMING IN. AGAIN, SAY ST. LUCIE SAY THEY WANT A SCHOOL BUS OR ARE CLOSE TO SCHOOL BUS THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE IT INTERIOR TO THE COMMUNITY IF THEY CHOOSE SO . THERE WOULD BE NO BARRIER FOR THEM TO CIRCULATE THE COMMUNITY. SOME OF THE ARCHITECTURE WE ARE PROVIDING A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT OPTIONS FOR FINISHES, COLORS, MATERIALS TO PROVIDE THE ARTICULATION OF VARIOUS UNITS. WE DON'T WANT THE SAME REPEATING PATTERN OVER AND OVER AGAIN. PROVIDING SOME OF THAT VARIATIN REALLY ALLOWS FOR MORE COHESIVE COMMUNITY THAT HAS A LITTLE BIT OF VARIETY IN THERE. IT MAKES IT REALLY NICE. AGAIN, WE ARE UNDERNEATH THE 10 UNIT PER ACRE. A NICE CROSS-SECTION HERE TO SHOW YOU THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE STREET. IT'S 50 FOOT WIDE ROADWAY TRACT. STREET TREES ON EITHER SIDE, MAINLY PALM TREES.

A LOT OF COMMUNITIES YOU SEE CANOPY TREES ALONG THE ROADWAYS.

ESPECIALLY OLDER ONES. WE HAVE A REPEATED PATTERN OF HAVING TO RIP THEM OUT BECAUSE OF TEARING UP DRIVEWAYS AND SIDEWALKS, CAUSING TRIPPING HAZARDS. WE FIND THE LARGER PALM TREE SPECIES PROVIDE A NICE FORM ALONG THE ROADWAY AND THEY DON'T CAUSE SOME OF THOSE LONG-TERM ISSUES WITH DAMAGING SIDEWALKS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE, WHICH COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR PEOPLE TRIPPING AND THE SORT. THE BUFFER ON THE WESTERN BOUNDARY YOU SEE THE 32 FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER WITH THE PERMIT. FINALLY ANOTHER IMAGE , WHICH OF THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE BUILDING. IT WILL BE SINGLE CAR GARAGES, SINGLE , ALL BEDROOM UNITS AND ABOUT 1800 SQUARE FEET. SO THAT'S REALLY THE END OF THE PRESENTATION. IT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE AND EXCEEDS A LOT OF MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS AND IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU GUYS HAVE THANK

YOU FOR YOUR TIME. >> THANK YOU. QUESTIONS FOR THE

APPLICANT? >> YOU MENTION YOU HAVE MORE PARKING THAT'S REQUIRED. HOW DO YOU BREAK THAT DOWN? ARE YOU

[01:30:01]

>> GENERALLY EACH UNIT PARKS ITSELF. ONE CAR IN THE GARAGE AND ONE CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY. PRACTICALLY, A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN'T PARK CARS ON THE DRIVEWAY BECAUSE IT'S FULL OF STUFF SO YOU END UP HAVING ONE OF THEIR CAR NEEDS A SPACE TO GO.

PROVIDING THAT ADDITIONAL PARKING ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY IS REALLY THE MAIN OVERFLOW AREA. SO I THINK IT IS, YEAH I DON'T HAVE THE -- I WILL GIVE YOU THE CLOSE-UP. YEAH. SO THE MAIN ON STREET PARKING 90 DEGREE HEADED PARKING ON THE SOUTH SIDE IS WHERE THE MAJORITY IS. THERE IS SOME ON STREET NEAR THE ENTRANCE. AND THE MAIL KIOSK BUT THAT'S PARKING. BY THE TECHNICAL LETTER OF THE CODE WE ARE EXCEEDING THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT PER UNIT FUNCTIONALLY WE UNDERSTAND THAT SOME OF THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT ACTUALLY GOING TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THEIR GARAGES SO IT MAKES SENSE TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL PARKING. IT COSTS A LITTLE BIT MORE BUT FOR THE FUNCTION OF THE COMMUNITY LONG TERM IT MAKES SENSE.

>> I'M SORRY HOW MANY CARS CAN FIT IN THE DRIVEWAY?

>> THEY ARE ONE CAR DRIVEWAYS . SINGLE CAR GARAGE , I THINK THERE ABOUT 10-12 FEET WIDE. ENOUGH FOR ONE CAR TO FIT

COMFORTABLY . >> THE SMALL DEAD-END CUTOUT AT THE TOP LEFT CORNER , IS THAT THE DUMPSTER AREA?

>> I BELIEVE IT'S A LIFT STATION.

>> IS YOUR INTENDED LOCATION FOR TRASH COLLECTION?

>> THESE WOULD ALL HAVE ROLLOUTS FROM THE GARAGE SO THEY WOULD HAVE THEIR OWN GARBAGE COLLECTION FOR EACH UNIT. THERE IS NO CLUBHOUSE FACILITY SO THERE'S NO CENTRAL DUMPSTER

LOCATION. >> WHAT ABOUT DOG PARKS, PLAYGROUNDS ? WHY WAS THAT NOT INCORPORATED? WAS THAT

CONSIDERED FOR THIS DESIGN? >> WITH ALL OF OUR DEVELOPMENTS, ABSOLUTELY. WITH THIS ONE THERE'S A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF OPEN SPACE, GREEN SPACE . IT IS ALL USABLE TO THE COMMUNITY.

THERE'S NO DEDICATED DOG PARK OR PLAYGROUND FACILITY BUT THE OPEN SPACE AROUND THE SITE IS SUBSTANTIAL AND USABLE FOR THE

RESIDENTS. >> WILL IT BE FENCED OR OPEN?

>> I BELIEVE THERE WILL BE OFFENSE INCORPORATED IN AS PART OF THE BERM BUT THERE'S NO GAIT . SO IT'S NOT A GATED COMMUNITY. BUT THERE IS A RATHER DENSE LANDSCAPE BUFFER AROUND THE PERIMETER AS WELL AS THE IMPROVED PEDESTRIAN SIDEWALKS

AROUND THE EXTERNAL OF THE SITE. >> IS THERE ANY OPPORTUNITY FOR PLAYGROUNDS IN YOUR DESIGN? THERE'S OPEN SPACE, ASSUMING CHILDREN AND DOGS AS WELL. HAVING CHILDREN AND DOGS MYSELF IT WOULD BE REALLY HARD TO JUST USE THE SPACE WHEN THERE'S NO GATE, THERE'S NO FENCE ON SITE .

>> RIGHT. IN TERMS OF A DOG PARK TO WHERE YOU CAN LET YOUR DOG OUT. UNDERSTOOD REALLY, IN TERMS OF THE DEVELOPMENT WE WERE INTENDING TO CREATE, IT WASN'T AN AMENITY THAT WAS IDENTIFIED AS ESSENTIAL FOR THIS COMMUNITY, AND DOG PARK. AGAIN, THERE'S PROBABLY SPACE WE COULD FIT IT IN. LOOKING AT THE SOUTH PORTION OF THE PROPERTY WITH THE PARKING BUT YOU KNOW ?

>> YOU THINK PARKING IS SUFFICIENT

>> BY THE LETTER OF THE CODE BUT SOME OF THE OFFSETS, THESE ARE ONE CAR GARAGES. I KNOW I CAN'T PARK A CAR IN MY GARAGE AND I HAVE A TWO CAR GARAGE. WE TEND TO FILL OUR GARAGE WITH STUFF

VERSUS CARS . >> STREET PARKING?

>> YOU WOULDN'T WANT IT OVERNIGHT. INEVITABLY THERE WILL BE PEOPLE WHO PAR IN FRONT OF THEIR UNIT. FROM EMS PERSPECTIVE IT WILL BE WRITTEN INTO THE H AWAY GUIDELINES YOU CAN'T PARK YOUR CAR IN THE STREET OVERNIGHT. YOU HAVE TWO PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDE THE STREET PARKING IN THE STREET THEN YOUR AMBULANCE CAN'T GET THROUGH. THEY WILL END UP PUSHING SOMEBODY'S CAR OUT OF THE WAY BUT IT COST THEM TIME WHICH COULD COST THEM LIVES. SO WE TRY TO ENCOURAGE THE SAFETY ASPECT OF IT TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS ADEQUATE PARKING.

>> ALL RIGHT, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? HEARING NONE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AT THIS TIME I WILL TURN

[01:35:04]

SEEING NONE I WILL SEND IT BACK TO THE BOARD ONE LAST TIME FOR ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, CONCERNS. HEARING NONE , THIS TIME WE WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

>> THE MOTION TO ACCEPT THE SITE PLAN WITH SIX CONDITIONS .

>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. MOVING ON THE ITEM D FINAL PLOT SAVANNA

RESERVE PHASE ONE. >> THANK YOU CHAIR, PLANNING BOARD. THIS IS APPLICATION FOR A FINAL PLAT RELATED TO SAVANNA PRESERVE, PHASE ONE. THE NUMBER OF PARCELS INVOLVED HERE , THE FINAL PLAT FOR PHASE ONE OF THIS RESERVE INCLUDES A LAYOUT FOR 200 THREE TOWNHOME LOTS, 98 TO FAMILY LOTS , A COMMUNITY RECREATION TRACT AND AREAS RESERVED FOR FUTURE DEVELOPENT.

THAT'S THE PHASE TWO PLAT AREA. THAT WILL BECOME APPARENT WHEN I SHOW YOU THE SITE PLAN. THE SITE IS LOCATED AT OR NEAR THE EAST SIDE OF U.S. HIGHWAY 1 AT THE INTERSECTION OF DIXON DRIVEWAY AND LINE NORTH OF EXISTING GATOR TRACE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. I HAVE INDICATORS AT THE TOP. SO, THE OVERALL DEVELOPMENT IS HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW BOUNDARY. WITHIN THE YELLOW BOUNDARY IS PHASE ONE, WHICH IS THE RED CUTOUT. AGAIN, THAT'S WHERE IT IS FROM A ZONING POINT OF VIEW. WE HAVE COMMERCIAL, RESIDENTIAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT U.S. HIGHWAY 1. THERE IS THE APPROVED SITE PLAN, WHICH WAS APPROVED IN JULY 2022. YOU WILL SEE THE LAYOUT, WHICH IS ESSENTIALLY PHASE ONE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED OUTLINE .

PHASE TWO TO BE DEVELOPED IN THE FUTURE RUNS LONG THE NORTH AND EAST PORTION OF THE DEVELOPMENT. A LARGE PORTION OF THE PHASE ONE PART OF THIS IS , A VERY LARGE WETLAND PRESERVE AREA WHICH RUNS THROUGH THE CENTER OF THE PROPERTY . NOW YOU WILL SEE THE DIFFERENTIAL OF SOME OF THE LOT LAYOUTS , WHICH CAN HAPPEN BETWEEN PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PLAT . SO NOW THE APPLICANT IS COMING FORWARD WITH VERY PRECISE LOT LAYOUTS AND THEY WILL BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN THOSE AND THOSE VARIATIONS IN MORE DETAIL AS THEY PRESENT. STAFF REVIEWS THESE AND WE RUN THEM THROUGH THE CITY ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT AND THEIR CONSULTANT. THOSE SEEMINGLY MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS FOR FINAL PLAT. THE APPLICATION FOR FINAL PLAT MEETS THE CRITERIA SPECIFIED IN 21 OF CITY ORDINANCES AND IS CONSISTENT WITH CITY LAND CODE AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THEREFORE STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THE PLANNING BOARD FULL RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL TO THE CITY WITH TWO CONDITIONS. I THINK WE JUST HAVE TWO, YES.

BOTH RELATING TO PROVISION OF MYLAR FOR SIGNATURES AND ENDORSEMENT BY CITY REVIEWING SURVEYOR INCORPORATING THE AMOUNT OF THE BOND AND THE AGREED OPINION OF PROBABLE CAUSE TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE CITY ENGINEER . AND THAT WOULD TAKE CARE OF ANY INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED AS PART OF THE PLAT . SO STAFF RECOMMENDING APPROVAL

OF THIS PLAT . >> THANK YOU MR. FREEMAN. BEFORE

[01:40:13]

>> I HAVE A QUESTION. THIS IS COMING IN AS A FINAL PLAT BECAUSE WE ARE INTRODUCING THE FIRST PHASE?

>> YES. PRIOR TO BEING ABLE TO PULL BUILDING PERMITS FOR INDIVIDUAL LOTS OR OTHER MAYBE SALES OF THESE LOTS , FINAL PLAT HAS TO BE RECORDED WITH THE PROPERTY APPRAISER FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO ALLOW PARCEL I.D.S. I KNOW THERE'S OTHER PROVISIONS OF STATE STATUTE THAT HAVE COME IN LINE AND REQUEST CAN BE MADE.

PROPERTY APPRAISERS TO HAVE POSSIBLE I.D.S ISSUED BEFORE THAT. THIS MAKES IT CLEANER TO HAVE ALL PARTIES . SO YES , IT IS REQUIRED PRIOR TO CERTAIN BUILDING PERMITS BEING PULLED.

>> I JUST REMEMBER , DURING MY TENURE EARLY SO I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE WHERE WE WERE WHEN WE LEFT OFF. THANK YOU.

>> THIS OPTIONS FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT BUT IF YOU HAVE DETAIL FOR FINAL WE RECOMMEND YOU DID THE FINAL.

>> DO YOU HAVE OTHER CONDITIONS?

>> BECAUSE IT'S A PLAT THE CONDITIONS RELATED TO THE SITE PLAN HAVE BEEN TAKING CARE WITH THE SITE PLAN . THESE ARE CONDITIONS THAT ARE SPECIFICALLY AIMED AT THE PLAT, THE REVIEW OF PLAT IS ESSENTIALLY NOT DONE THROUGH THE PLANNING STAFF . WE TAKE IT IN, WE ENSURE IT MEETS THE CRITERIA THAT THE SITE PLAN APPROVED AND THEN WE PASS IT ON TO CITY ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT THAT HAS A CONSORT AND LOOK AT IT AND MAKE COMMENTS BACK REGARDING THE TECHNICAL PARAMETERS THAT THE PLAT IS

DRAWN TO. >> THANK YOU. MOVING ON TO THE

APPLICANT. >> FOR THE RECORD MY NAME IS DENNIS MURPHY, CULPEPPER INTERPRETING HERE IN FORT PIERCE AND WE ARE HERE TODAY REPRESENTING CULTURE LAND DEVELOPMENT WHO ARE THE PRIMARY DEVELOPERS OF THE PROJECT MANAGE SOMATIC PRESERVE OR THE FIRST PHASE OF THE PLAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU. AS YOU INDICATED IS CLEMENTS I THINK YOU PROBABLY REMEMBER SOME OF THE VENTURES WE HAD IN THE PAST AND THOSE ARE BEHIND US. WE ARE IF YOU HAVE SEEN THE SITE YOU HAVE SEEN THAT WE ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION BUT WERE ONLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION IN ROUGHLY THE FIRST HALF, AS SHOWN ON OUR PLAT. THE SECOND PHASE OF THE PROJECT WILL COME IN AT SOME POINT DOWN THE ROAD IN A LITTLE BIT. FOR NOW, THROUGH THE EVOLUTION OF THE SITE, TO THE POINT NOW WHERE WE NEED TO RECORD OR SEEK RECORDING AUTHORIZATIONS FOR THE FIRST PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT. IT IS ROUGHLY TWO THIRDS OF THE TOWNHOME UNITS THAT WILL BE IN THE PROJECT AND ROUGHLY HALF-ISH OF THE TWO FAMILY UNITS THAT WILL BE IN THE PROJECT. THE MAJORITY OF THE DEVELOPMENT YET TO COME WILL BE THE UNITS IN THE BACK PORTION OF THE HOPPITY, THE EAST PORTION. ONE COMMENT THAT KEVIN MADE. YOU SEE WE MADE A CHANGE TO THE PRELIMINARY SITE PLAN AND THAT WAS CUL-DE-SAC AREA. WE GOT DOWN TO DOING THE HARD MATH AND IT ACTUALLY MEANT DOING A T TYPE CONFIGURATION IN THE SAME LOCATION SPECIALLY MADE MORE SENSE . IT MADE THINGS FIT BETTER, THAT'S WHY YOU HAVE THAT PARTICULAR CHANGE IN THERE. MUCH EVERYTHING ELSE IS THE SAME BORING A LITTLE TWEAK IN THE LINE HERE OR THERE JUST TO GET THE GEOMETRY RIGHT. EVERYTHING ELSE IS IN PLACE FROM THERE. I WILL COME BACK, I KNOW WE TOUCHED ON THE FACT THAT WE HAVE BEEN HERE BEFORE AND WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT SCHOOL BUSES BEFORE, THIS IS A NON-GATED COMMUNITY. IT IS A COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT WHERE THE STREETS ARE MAINTAINED BY THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT AND WE HAVE TWO DESIGNATED SCHOOL PICKUP ZONES WITHIN THE AREA. ONE BEING AT THE CLUBHOUSE AT THE SOUTH END AND ONE THING AT THE NORTH END MAIL KIOSK WHICH IS JUST OFF YOUR MAP, LET ME GO BACK TO IT. RIGHT ABOVE THE LAKE, THE LITTLE HALF CIRCLE. A LITTLE RED SPOT . THAT WILL BE THE SECOND SCHOOL BUS PICK UP. WE WORK THIS OUT WITH THE SCHOOL BOARD DURING THE SITE PLAN AND MR. SANDERS WAS VERY EMPHATIC ABOUT WHAT HE WANTED AND WE MAKE SURE WE GIVE IT TO HIM. TO THAT END I CONCUR WITH KEVIN AND THE FACT THAT THIS IS

[01:45:01]

>> VICKI MR. MURPHY. NOT A QUESTION BUT JUST AN OBSERVATION. THE SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF WETLAND PRESERVATION FOR FANTASTIC THING. WE SAW SOME OF THAT IN THE EARLY APPLICATIONS AS WELL. I LIKE THIS TREND. I THINK IT'S VERY HELPFUL FOR THE COMMUNITY. ESPECIALLY SEEING THE COMMITMENT FROM THE DEVELOPERS AND LAND OWNERS. THE BUILDING AND THE PRESERVATION FOR WETLAND AREA IN THE SITE PLAN DESIGN. KNOWING IT WILL BE PROTECTED FOR MANY YEARS TO COME IS A VERY GOOD THING.

>> ON BEHALF OF OUR CLIENTS, THANK YOU.

[e. Final Plat - Mohawk Parcel ID(s): 1428-702-0425-000-7, 1428-702-0382-000-3, 1428-702-0050-000-7]

ON TO ITEM 6D FINAL PLAT MOHAWK. >> AGAIN, THIS IS A FINAL PLAT IN THIS RESPECT IS FOR THE 14 RESIDENTIAL LOTS WHICH MEET THE ZONING CATEGORY WHICH THEY ARE LOCATED IN. THE OVERALL PLAT IS JUST ABOVE FOUR ACRES AND THIS ON PROPERTY THREE PARCELS LYING ON THE WEST CORNER OF MOHAWK AVENUE AND BRYANT ROAD. HERE IS THE LOCATION. YOU WILL SEE THAT IT IS CLOSE TO THE NORTH 25TH STREET JUST TO THE EAST BETWEEN NORTH 25TH STREET AND U.S. 1.

MOHAWK STREET IS HERE, CITY LIMITS ACTUALLY EXTEND ONLY JUST AROUND IT. THE CITY DOESN'T ACTUALLY INCORPORATE MANY PROPERTIES IN THIS AREA. BUT THERE ARE PATCHWORK PROPERTIES BELOW THAT. HERE IS A CLOSE-UP. MOHAWK IS THREE PARCELS HERE I COME DOWN THE WESTERN SIDE OF MOHAWK AVENUE. SEE THE PATTERN OF DEVELOPMENT IS PRIMARILY SINGLE-FAMILY RIGHT OF WAY THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD. I THINK THAT'S A MOBILE HOME TYPE MODULAR HOMES TYPES IN THEIR . ZONING ALL ONE AND THEY COMPLY WITH THE DISTRICT THAT'S A PLAT IF YOU WANT END TO END , IT IS JUST 14 LOTS ON THE WEST SIDE OF MOHAWK AVENUE. IN ALL RESPECT , THE FINAL PLAT IDEAS TO THE CITY LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE , STAFF RECOMMENDS THE PLANNING MOHAWK FINAL PLAT TO THE CITY RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL. THE SAME CONDITIONS THAT YOU WOULD SEE FOR THE FINAL PLAT LINK TO MYLARS AND FULLY EXECUTED COUNTY ROAD IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT TO BE PROVIDED . THAT WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE WORK IN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY TO ENSURE THAT IT COMPLIES WITH ST. LUCIE COUNTY ROADWAY . STANDARD.

>> THANK YOU MR. FREEMAN . SO, QUESTION FOR YOU. DO ALL FINAL

[01:50:08]

>> YES, I BELIEVE THEY DO. RECENTLY THERE'S A TRANSITION WITH THE CODE SEPARATED OUT PLANNING BOARD. THAT PROVED TO BE A BIT TECHNICALLY INCORRECT. WE RE-LOOKED AT THAT AND WE BROUGHT IT. THE CODE HAS JUST BEEN REALIGNED TO ENGAGE THE PLANNING BOARD TO ALL FINAL PLAT . WHEN I SAY ALL FINAL PLAT THERE ARE DIVISIONS THAT COME IN AND WE'VE DEALT WITH ADMINISTRATIVELY IF THERE'S LESS THAN THREE LOTS. SO YOU WOULDN'T SEE THOSE BECAUSE IT'S A MINOR SUBDIVISION. IS, BECAUSE IT'S 14 LOTS AND THERE ARE CERTAIN REQUIREMENTS THAT WILL NEED TO BE TAKEN CARE OF. MOHAWK , YOU WILL GET TO SEE

THAT. >> OKAY. THAT'S ALL I HAD. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? ALL RIGHT, ADMITTEDLY I THINK THIS IS A PRETTY EASY ONE BUT SINCE THEY'RE HERE WE WILL ALLOW THE APPLICANT TO COME UP AND INTRODUCE THEMSELVES, IF YOU

WOULD PLEASE, SIR . >> HEY, HOW'S IT GOING MY NAME IS GERARD AIELLO AND I'M THE BUILDER FOR MOHAWK . HOW'S IT GOING TO ALL YOUR MEMBERS? BUT AS YOU MENTIONED THERE'S JUST 14 LOTS. WILL TRY TO DO REPLANT AND IT'S THREE LOTS AND WE TRY TO CONVERT 14 LOTS AND BUILD 14 HOMES. WE ACTUALLY ALREADY BUILT ONE DOWN, ALL THE WAY ON I THINK IT'S ON THE SOUTHEAST SIDE ON MOHAWK. THE HOUSE I THINK WE BUILT IT WITHIN SIX OR SEVEN MONTHS. IT WAS INITIALLY THE SAME PLAN TRYING TO DO THESE OVER 14 HOMES BUT OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS WHOLE PROCESS. I WASN'T HERE LAST TIME BECAUSE I WAS ON VACATION.

I KNOW BROOKE HERE IS MY REALTOR AND MY FATHER WAS HERE AND IT ALSO THOUGHT IT WAS SOME KIND OF A TWO-WAY DEVELOPMENT WERE TRYING TO DO THEIR BECAUSE THEY MADE ME DO A STORMWATER PLAN.

WHICH WAS REALLY WEIRD THEY MADE ME DO THAT BUT AT THE END I TOLD US ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS HAVE A DRAINAGE PLAN AND THAT WOULD BE WHENEVER WE SUBMIT FOR A PERMIT APPLICATION FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL HOME. OTHER THAN THAT THE ONLY THING WE HAVE LESS TO DO IS GET THOSE TWO FOULS SIGNED AND TURN IT TO THE COUNTY AND PROVIDE BOND WITH HUNDRED 15% THAT IS MARKED UP FOR THE CONSTRUCTION

OF THE ROAD TO THE COUNTY. >> ALL RIGHT.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE

APPLICANT? THANK YOU. >> CAN YOU PLEASE SIGN IN?

>> OKAY. SORRY ABOUT THAT . >> HAVING HEARD FROM THE APPLICANT WE WILL TURN IT OVER TO THE PUBLIC. IF THERE'S ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO SPEAK ON THIS APPLICATION, PLEASE COME FORWARD. SEEING NONE BACK TO THE BOARD, ONE LAST CHANCE FOR COMMENTS, QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS? HEARING NONE I WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

>> I MAKE A MOTION THE APPLICATION FOR THE FINAL PLAT FOR THE MOHAWK , ASSUMING IT IS, NOT ASSUMING, THAT IT MEETS CODE THAT WE APPROVED TICKET FORWARD TO THE COMMISSION.

>> FOR CLARITY DO WE HAVE CONDITIONS? TWO CONDITIONS?

[8. DIRECTOR'S REPORT]

>> THANK YOU CHAIR. AS I DID REPORT, OR MENTION LAST MEETING THAT STAFF AND COMMISSION HAD GONE THROUGH A STRATEGIC PLAN FOR THE NEXT FEW YEARS. ESSENTIALLY OUTLINING WHERE THE CITY WAS LIKELY TO BE HEADING IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS, AND ALSO SETTING OUT A PROGRAM FOR THIS YEAR AND EARLY NEXT YEAR FOR STAFF TO BE WORKING THROUGH AND GETTING ON THE SAME PAGE IN TERMS OF A DIRECTION FOR ALL DEPARTMENTS . SO WE ARE ALL AWARE OF THE DEPARTMENT WHERE EVERYONE IS HEADING AND WE WILL

[01:55:03]

[02:00:02]

WORKING ON KING'S LANDING AND THAT'S LIKELY TO COME BACK FOR SITE PLAN AMENDMENT HOPEFULLY IN MAY. THERE IS AN ONGOING DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN BEING RUN BY THE CITY'S REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY I THINK THAT'S GOING TO BE KICKING OFF SOON. THERE'S ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT POLICIES LOOKING AT MAYBE GETTING SOME OF THOSE INTO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. WITH THAT DISCUSSION THIS YEAR. LOOKING AT ANNEXATIONS. WE HAVE DEALT WITH APPLICATIONS TODAY WHERE I THINK MANY APPLICANTS SAY THAT THE CITY IS SUCH A PATCHWORK OF IF IT'S IN THE CITY OR OUTSIDE THE CITY, IT'S VERY DIFFICULT FOR EVEN CITIZENS WHO LIVE ON THE STREET TO UNDERSTAND WHETHER THEY ARE IN THE CITY OR NOT. WE GET SO MANY INQUIRIES WHERE PEOPLE REALLY TRULY BELIEVE THEY ARE IN FORT PIERCE BUT COME TO FIND OUT THEY ARE REGULATED BY THE COUNTY. THE TRASH IS PICKED UP BY THE COUNTY AND THERE IS A SHERIFF WHO SERVE THEM . WE HAVE MEMBERS ON THE BOARD WHO LIVE IN THAT SITUATION. THEY HAVE NEIGHBORS ON THE STREET WHO AREN'T IN THE CITY. WE WANT TO BRING THAT UP TO THE CITY COUNTY COMMISSION TO FIND OUT AN AGREED WAY FORWARD OF HOW WE ROUND OUT THE CITY. WHAT IS THE FOCUS? AND TO BRING SOME OF THE STABILITY, IF YOU LIKE IN TERMS OF PEOPLE UNDERSTANDING WHERE THEY ARE. I THINK THAT IN ITSELF STARTS TO ENGAGE A COMMUNITY PRIDE IF YOU ARE IN THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE THAN THAT IS SOMETHING THAT YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF. IF A STREET IS MADE UP OF 50% ONE AND 50% THE OTHER, HOW WOULD YOU GENERATE THAT PRIDE? WHERE IS THAT COMMUNITY? YES, YOU KNOW YOUR NEIGHBORS AND THE NEIGHBORS WILL BE THE SAME WHETHER YOU'RE IN THE CITY OR THE COUNTY . BUT IF SOMETHING HAPPENS AND THE LOCATION IS IT ONLY 15% OF THE NEIGHBORS WILL GET INVOLVED IN THAT? I THINK THAT'S AN IMPORTANT ASPECT THAT PEOPLE REALLY FORGET. IF THERE IS AN ACTION OR AN EVENT THAT AFFECTS THAT STREET , FROM ONE MUNICIPALITY TO THE COUNTY , IS THAT INVOLVING HER TAKING ACCOUNT OF 50% OF THE RESIDENCES THERE? WE DON'T HAVE AGRICULTURAL ZONING BUT WE ARE PUSHING FURTHER WEST. IN MY THINKING THAT IS A WAY OF PUTTING THE BRAKES ON OUT WEST IF WE ARE ALLOWING AGRICULTURAL ZONING OUT THERE THAT MAYBE ALLOWS PEOPLE TO COME INTO THE CITY AND HOLD THE LINE BETTER AS AN AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY RATHER THAN DEVELOPING AS A , YOU KNOW, LARGE RESIDENTIAL OR LARGE COMMERCIAL, SOMETHING INDUSTRIAL . IN APPROPRIATE LOCATIONS THAT'S GOOD. I THINK IF WE TRY TO HOLD THE LINE WITH THE CITY ENDS AND THE COUNTY STARTS, MAYBE THAT'S A GREAT TRANSITIONAL POTENTIAL. SO, COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. WE TRY TO DO THAT WHEN WE RUN THROUGH THE PLANNING PROCESS. WE WILL LOOK AT REQUIREMENTS FOR ADVERTISING AND ALL IN THE CODE. WERE LOOKING FOR THE CODE TO HELP US WITH THE ENGAGEMENT ISSUE. AS

[02:05:04]

OKAY, YOU CAN HAVE YOUR GATED ENVIRONMENT FOR YOUR OWN RESIDENTS BUT LET'S INTERLINK THAT BETTER WITH THE CITY . WE HAVE SOME GREAT NATURAL RESOURCES OUT HERE AND THAT'S PART OF THE ATTRACTION OF THE CITY. ALL OF THE ACTIVITIES , INVENTIONS PICKLE BALL AND DISC GOLF. ARE THOSE PROVISIONS AND LOCATIONS WHERE PEOPLE CAN ACCESS THEM EASILY? OTHER SIDEWALKS, ARE THERE TRAILS, ARE THERE LINKAGES THAT MAKE IT EASY FOR THE COMMUNITY TO GET TO THOSE THINGS? IT TALKS ABOUT CRIME RATE THROUGH IMMUNITY POLICING BUT THERE'S ALSO CRIME RATE THROUGH COMMUNITY DESIGN AND MAKING SITE PLANS AND DEVELOPMENTS SAFER THROUGH DESIGN. HAVING PEOPLE BE ABLE TO OBSERVE BECAUSE THEY'RE LIVING IN A PLACE, OBSERVE WHAT'S GOING ON THE STREET IS SUCH A POWERFUL DETERRENT TO CRIME IF IT'S DONE CORRECTLY AND IF PEOPLE ARE ENGAGED IN WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE COMMUNITY. SO THAT IS THE PRIORITIES THROUGHOUT THE CITY LOOKING AT ENFORCEMENT . WHAT DOES THE CITY LOOK LIKE? WHAT DOES THE CODE ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO DO AND ARE WE APPLYING THAT CODE? WE ARE LOOKING AGAIN THROUGH REGULATIONS AND ALSO UPDATING OUR CODE TO ZONING DISTRICTS AND ALLOWING MORE COMMUNITY-BASED DEVELOPMENT , WHERE IT'S APPROPRIATE, WHERE WE CAN GET MORE HIPPITY. SO AGAIN, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT WHEN YOU READ SOMETHING IN THE STRATEGY IT MIGHT SOUND LIKE IT'S OUTSIDE OF WHAT WE DO. BUT I THINK PLANNING IS ONE OF THOSE AREAS . CITY ENGAGEMENT WILL BE MORE

[02:10:38]

BEAUTIFICATION, STREET CONDITIONS, COMMUNITY SAFETY, CITY ECONOMIC. COMMUNITY BRAND AGAIN. THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT THAT APPEARS ON THE STREET IS THE COMMUNITY BRAND. IS WHAT PEOPLE SEE WHEN THEY COME INTO THE CITY. IT IS NOT A LOGO.

IT'S MORE THAN A LOGO. IT IS THE ARCHITECTURE . IT'S HOW PEOPLE INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER. IT'S HOW THE CITY LOOKS.

COMPREHENSIVE ORDINANCES REVIEW , AGAIN, IT LOOKS AT HOW WE ARE DEVELOPING THE CITY. THERE ARE IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF ALL OF THIS. AND WHAT YOU DO AS A BOARD CITY MARINA, KINGS LANDING ANOTHER BIG IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT PROJECT DOWNTOWN.

THE PURCHASING HOMELESS ON HOUSE STRATEGY. THAT COMES DOWN TO HOW DO WE SUPPLY HOUSING. WHATEVER SITUATION YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ACCESS SOME KIND OF HOUSING IF YOU WANT HOUSING. THE PORTS .

THE DISCUSSION ON THE LITTLE GYM . THERE IS A VIEW OF THE CITY HOW'S IT WORKING? DOES THE OPERATION FORM PART OF THAT? LAURA ENFORCEMENT IMPACT FEE. I WENT THROUGH THAT WITH THE CITY COMMISSION. THAT COMES INTO PLAY BECAUSE DEVELOPMENT IMPACTS THE LEVEL OF SERVICE THAT WE HAVE IN THE CITY AND PART OF THAT IS LAURA ENFORCEMENT SERVICE. WE GET COMMENTS ALL THE TIME IN TERMS OF TECHNICAL REVIEW, COMING BACK FROM THE POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT THIS IS GOING TO IMPACT THEIR SERVICE LEVEL BECAUSE THEY'RE HAVING TO BEND SEND LAURA ENFORCEMENT INVESTMENT INTO AREAS WHERE THERE WERE NOT NECESSARILY SERVING BEFORE. AGAIN, THIS ALSO PLAYS INTO THE ANNEXATION OF SPORADIC LOCATION OF SERVICE PROVISION. WE WANT TO CONSOLIDATE THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT IMPACT FEE IF IT'S IMPLEMENTED WELL WHEN WE GET DEVELOPMENTS IN CAUSE AND IMPACT FEE TO GO TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THAT CAN BE USED FOR THE CAPITAL EXPENDITURE IN TERMS OF PROVIDING THAT ADDITIONAL SERVICE TO THE THINGS BEING APPROVED. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AGAIN, REWINDING THE WHOLE THING. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS TO BE UPDATED THIS YEAR. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING CONSORTED ON BOARD. THAT'S GOING THROUGH PURCHASING. MOVING AHEAD WITH RESIDENTIAL DESIGN, AGAIN PART OF THE COMMUNITY APPEARANCE. AND LET'S LOOK AT IMPLEMENTING SOME OF THAT AS A CATALOG AND MAKING THINGS EASY FOR PEOPLE WHEN THEY COME INTO GET A RESIDENTIAL PERMIT . SO, WE HAVE LOTS OF MANAGEMENT PROGRESS , THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON. THAT'S GOOD INFORMATION IF YOU WANT TO SCAN THROUGH ALL OF THAT BEFORE YOU GO TO BED ONE NIGHT. IT JUST SHOWS ALL THE THINGS GOING ON IN THE CITY IN TERMS OF WHERE STAFF ARE HEADING AND WHAT CITY COMMISSION IS AWARE OF AND THEY WANT US TO KEEP DOING THESE THINGS. AGAIN, LIST OF MAJOR PROJECTS IN THE CITY. GOOD INFORMATIONAL STUFF. LOTS OF CITY PROPERTY. LOTS OF CAPITAL PROJECTS GOING ON FROM ENGINEERING. WHICH YOU PROBABLY

[02:15:01]

>> THANK YOU MR. FREEMAN. I WOULD PARTICULARLY ENCOURAGE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD AND MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHEN READING THROUGH THIS TO PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE BULLET ITEMS THAT ARE EARMARKED AS TOP PRIORITIES. THIS IS A VERY BROAD SPECTRUM OF , MISSIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS BUT THE THINGS THAT THE CITY HAS CHOSEN TO LIST AS PRIORITIES ARE SPECIFICALLY IMPORTANT TO US AND WORTH NOTING. I DID WANT TO ASK YOU , IT COMES UP SEVERAL TIMES IN THE STRATEGIC PLAN REPORT ABOUT WHAT YOU WERE JUST SPEAKING OF. THE LAW ENFORCEMENT IMPACT FEES.

WHEN IN A TYPICAL DEVELOPMENT IS A LAW ENFORCEMENT IMPACT FEE

ENGAGED FOR A DEVELOPER? >> PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF BUILDING

PERMIT. >> THE REASON WHY I ASKED THE QUESTION IS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY AT WHATEVER POINT THE FINAL DECISION ABOUT ADDING THIS TO THE CITY CODE OF ORDINANCES AND FIGURING OUT WHAT THOSE FEES ARE GOING TO BE AND HOW THEY'RE GOING TO BE, THERE WILL BE A NUMBER OF DEVELOPMENTS ALREADY IN PROGRESS AT WHATEVER POINT THAT HAPPENS. SO IS IT VERY CLEAR AS TO WHAT DEVELOPMENTS WILL THEN BECOME SUBJECT TO THAT AND WHICH ONES WON'T BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALREADY BEGUN THROUGH

THAT PROCESS? >> WE DON'T NORMALLY ASSESS THAT AT THE MOMENT. THE LAW ENFORCEMENT FEES ARE IMPLEMENTED AND THEN WE CAN FIND A GOOD READ OF WHERE THE BUILDING PERMITS HAVEN'T BEEN PULLED YET AND THERE MAY BE A TRANSITION BETWEEN DEVELOPMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT THAT HAVE A PHASE ONE THAT IS BEEN COMPLETED AND PHASE TWO WILL THEN BE SUBJECT TO THE BUILDING PERMIT FEES DEPENDING ON THE TIMELINE OF WHEN THEY PULL THE PERMITS. SOMEBODY SAID THIS MORNING, WE HAVE MISSED OUT ON 30 YEARS OF HOLDING PERMIT FEES .

>> WELL, LET'S NOT MISS OUT ON ANOTHER 30.

>> THE SOONER THE BETTER. IF IT'S GOING TO BE ADOPTED WE WILL BE PRESSING FORWARD AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I'M SURE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT WILL BE PRESENT FOR THAT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. WE ARE RESTRICTED BY STATE STATUTE, THERE WAS A PROCESS. EVEN WHEN, HOPEFULLY THIS WILL GO TO CITY COMMISSION BEFORE JUNE FOR FINAL APPROVAL. THIS THEN I BELIEVE A 90 DAY CONSULTATION PERIOD WHERE HE GOES TO THE STATE FOR APPROVAL TO MEET ALL OF THESE REQUIREMENTS. THEN WE ALSO HAVE, AT THE SAME TIME THE STATE LEGISLATIVE ACTIONS THIS YEAR, WHICH MAY, WE DON'T KNOW YET, AFFECT IMPACT FEES. WELL, I THINK WE KNOW THEY WILL EVENTUALLY AFFECT PROPERTY TAXATION AND ANY OTHER THINGS THAT COME IN WHICH AFFECT HOW LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE FUNDED AND OPERATE . WE ARE ALREADYSEEING THERE ARE BILLS OUT THERE WHICH ARE LOOKING AT ALLOWING MORE LEEWAY FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING. SEE YOU KNOW THAT THERE IS A LIVE LOCAL ACT OUT THERE WHICH ALLOWS, AT THE MOMENT, PROPERTIES THAT HAVE A FUTURE LAND USE OF COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL TO COME IN FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND ACTUALLY

[02:20:05]

WHATEVER YOU HAVE IN THE ORDINANCES , THAT'S HOW YOU REVIEW IT. THE STATE ARE NOW MOVING TO TIMELINE THE ORDINANCES SO THAT THE CITIES AND MUNICIPALITIES CANNOT PUT IN ORDINANCES NOW TO ADDRESS WHAT THE STATE ARE GOING TO PREEMPT .

SO BEFORE, WELL, RIGHT NOW WE USE CURRENT ORDINANCES TO REVIEW LIVE LOCAL. THEY CALL IT LIVE LOCAL PLANNING PROJECTS .

THEY'RE GOING TO GO BACK, I BELIEVE, TO 2023 MAYBE? SO IF SOMEONE COMES IN WITH A PLAN DEVELOPMENT, EXCUSE ME. AND THEN THEY DECIDE IN THE FUTURE TO DO AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE APPROVAL. THAT IS ON THE BOOKS RIGHT NOW. NOT BEEN ADOPTED YET BUT SOME SIGNIFICANT STATE LEGISLATION THAT WILL

AFFECT HOW THE CITY OPERATES . >> THAT'S QUITE A SIGNIFICANT DEPARTURE FROM OUR CURRENT WAY OF DOING IT. I MEAN WE JUST DISCUSS THIS TO MEETINGS AGO. PLAN DEVELOPMENT WE APPROVE , NEVER GETS BUILT NOTHING CAN BE BUILT UNLESS GOING BACK THROUGH NEW PLAN DEVELOPMENT. SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT WOULD ESSENTIALLY BE A FOOT IN THE DOOR LOOPHOLE . THAT'S INTERESTING.

>> IN ESSENCE YOU COULD COME IN AND AGREE TO A REALLY EXPENSIVE PLAN DEVELOPMENT WHERE YOU GET ALL THE GOODIES. THE NATURE PRESERVE AND EVERYTHING ELSE GOING IN AND IT'S APPROVED. IF IT'S APPROVED I READ IT BECAUSE IT'S A PLAN DEVELOPMENT .

>> BYPASSING THE BOARD AND THE CITY COMMISSION.

>> I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE END OF IT IN TERMS OF LEGISLATION AND THE DOWNGRADING OF MUNICIPAL INPUT IN LOTS OF DIFFERENT DECISION-MAKING . AND I THINK THE WIDER DISCUSSION WHICH IS NOT ESSENTIALLY INVOLVING PLANNING IS THE POTENTIAL REMOVAL OF PROPERTY . TAX BECAUSE THE CITY AS A WHOLE TO RELY ON PROPERTY TAXES FOR THE FUNDING MECHANISMS . TO PAY FOR THEIR SERVICES. THERE WILL HAVE TO BE A DIFFERENT

METHODOLOGY. >> ON THE TOP OF THAT QUESTION WAS IT SECURITY IMPACT FEE , WAS THAT THE VERY FIRST THING YOU

ASKED? >> YES, I WAS BRINGING UP THE

LAW ENFORCEMENT IMPACT FEE. >> THAT'S MORE THAN AN INTERESTING CONCEPT. TODAY, ALONE, THESE FIVE ITEMS THAT CAME BEFORE US, THAT WE'VE TAKEN FORWARD TO THE COMMUNITY.

THERE'S OVER 100,000 RESIDENCES. IF YOU ADDED UP IT'S OVER HUNDRED THOUSAND RESIDENCES WERE TALKING ABOUT.

THERE ARE HUMAN BEINGS IN THOSE HOMES AND THOSE APARTMENTS, SO FORTH . YOU SEE IN AN ACTION PLAN, I SAW 2025, 2030 AND 40.

KEVIN IS GOING THROUGH 2045 . A COUPLE THINGS. WE ALL HAVE TO STUDY THIS HARD. A COUPLE THINGS HIT ME. THE 2025 VERY FIRST ITEMS WERE TO EXPAND THE LOCAL ECONOMY AND COMMERCIAL TAX BASE

[02:25:03]

>> THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION. WE SET AS A TEAM OF DEVELOPMENT DIRECTORS. IN THE CITY SO THERE'S INPUT FROM ALL THE DIFFERENT BOARDS. I LIKE THE WAY THAT THIS HAS EVOLVED BECAUSE THE LAST TWO TIMES I'VE DONE THIS IS DEPARTMENT ENDED UP WITH THEIR OWN LIST OF STRATEGIC NAMES THAT WOULDN'T NECESSARILY ALIGN. I WAS PRESENTED TASKS I WAS RELYING ON INPUT FROM OTHER DEPARTMENTS BUT THEY HAVE THEIR OWN TASKS SO MY PARTY WAS NOT THEIR PARTY. AS I WENT THROUGH A LOT OF THINGS THIS YEAR IT WAS DESIGNED TWO YEARS AGO BECAUSE THEY NEED COOPERATION WITH DEPARTMENTS. PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT PRIORITIES OR DIFFERENT RESPONSES. THE ISSUES WE SPOKE ABOUT I REALLY TRY TO CONSOLIDATE THE ONES THAT I KNEW I NEEDED HELP ON WE HAVE EASED, AS DEPARTMENT SCOTT ARE ON PROJECTS TO WORK ON BUT I AM MORE, THEN THAT OF GETTING A RESPONSE FROM ANOTHER DEPARTMENT IN TERMS OF THEIR NOT OVERLOAD DOING THINGS. I'M NOT OVERLOADED WITH A SHOTGUN AFFECT OF TRYING TO SOLVE EVERYTHING AT ONCE. AND THESE ARE REALLY TANGIBLE SET , TARGETS THAT THE RESULT WOULD BE AFFECT NOT ONLY THE DEPARTMENT OR THE CITY. YOU MENTIONED 25 30 WAS THE PLAN ONCE. WERE ALREADY STARTING TO FINANCIALLY PLAN THE BUDGET AS TO WHAT OUR RESOURCES WOULD BE ALONG THOSE TIMELINES. SO WHERE WORKING ON PROJECT, FINANCE, CITY REVENUE AND BEING INFORMED ABOUT THAT FROM THE INTERNAL PROCESS THE MOVEMENT TO ONLINE PLAN SUBMITTED. IT IS HARD, WE ARE STILL WORKING OUR WAY THROUGH THAT. NOW WERE GETTING MORE FAMILIAR. WITH MY STAFF SHORTAGE I'VE BEEN THROWN INTO THE DEEP END OF RUNNING PROJECTS THROUGH THE SYSTEM. I'M GETTING FAR BETTER OF UNDERSTANDING HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS WHAT I ALWAYS TRY TO DO IS GET TO THE BASE OF WHAT PEOPLE ARE DOING. UNDER STANDING THE SYSTEM AND UNDERSTANDING HOW WE CAN BE MORE EFFICIENT IN THE ONLY WAY IS I CAN GET ENGAGE WITH THAT. IN THE FACTORY I WOULD WANT TO GO TO THE FACTORY FLOOR TO UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE THE PROCESS. HOW IS THIS MAKING THE NEXT PIECE MOVE? SO IT'S ALLOWED ME, ALSO MY STAFF , TO LOOK AT WHY WE ARE DOING THIS ISN'T THIS REPEATED OVER HERE? WHY ARE WE DOING IT TWICE? IS THERE EFFICIENCIES WE CAN GET? OUR AIM IS TO MAKE OUR WORKLOAD LIGHTER ALSO MAKE IT MORE EFFICIENT FOR CITIZENS WHO WANT TO DO SOMETHING IN THE CITY. WE SHOULD BE WRAPPING CITIZENS AND BUREAUCRACY BECAUSE WE NEED TO PROVE WHAT WE DO. I THINK WE HAVE ENOUGH TO DO WITHOUT HAVING TO PROVE WHAT WE DO . I LIKE THIS PROCESS THIS YEAR IT'S

[02:30:02]

>> I LIKE TO SHARE COUPLE OTHER THOUGHTS.

>> WERE SLIDING INTO NUMBER 9 FOR THE BOARD OF COMMENTS.

>> WE WERE TIED TO THIS. >> ARE YOU GOOD?

>> I'M FINE. ANY QUESTIONS I'LL BE FINE

>> I'D LIKE TO SHARE THE MANAGEMENT IN PROGRESS SECTION.

THE VERY FIRST BULLET POINT WAS JOB FAIR 2026. I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THE METHODIST CHURCH ON ORANGE AND SEVENTH HAD A JOB FAIR LAST MONTH AND THAT CONGREGATION OF PUTTING THAT TOGETHER AT 25 PRIVATE AND PUBLIC EMPLOYERS OVER 400 UNEMPLOYED OR UNDEREMPLOYED AND THEY PLACE OVER 50 PEOPLE THAT DAY. I DON'T THINK WE NEED TO WAIT TILL 2026.

>> GETTING MORE PUBLICITY AND MORE ENTITIES ENGAGED IN THAT IS TERRIFIC. . WHAT'S ENCOURAGING IS THE NUMBER ONE ON THE LIST. I

DIDN'T CARE TO SEE 2026. >> THANK YOU DIRECTOR FREEMAN.

[9. BOARD COMMENTS]

>> IT'S ON THE BOOKS. SEEING HOW THINGS HAVE PROGRESSED. THE DIRECTION OF ACTION BY THE LEGISLATIVE BODY .

>> WHAT IS THIS CALLED? >> WHAT I WILL GET IS THROUGH ALICIA , I'VE DONE A MEMO ON TWO OF THE BILLS WHICH I HAVE ISSUED TO THEM THERE. SO I WILL GET A COPY OF THAT BOARD MEMBERS TO GIVE YOU A TASTE. AND THEN THERE IS ALSO A WEBSITE THAT I WOULD INCLUDE ON THAT AT THE LEAGUE OF CITIES SO WE GO THROUGH THE LEGISLATIVE ACTION. YOU CAN GO ON THEIR AND GIVE YOU GOOD SUMMARY OF WHAT'S GOING ON. PUT A LOT OF MY INFORMATION ON THEIR AND TRY TO MATCH THEM TOGETHER.

>> ANYONE ELSE?
