The motion passed unanimously. PUBLIC COMMENT (On non-agenda items): None AGENDA ITEMS: a) Planning & Community Development: ORDINANCE 4067 - PUBLIC HEARING AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF BRADENTON, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE CITY OF BRADENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FUTURE LAND USE MAP TO DESIGNATE CERTAIN LAND GENERALLY LOCATED WEST OF 15TH STREET WEST, NORTH OF 6th AVENUE WEST, AND SOUTH OF MANATEE AVE WEST, IDENTIFIED AS PARCEL ID 3354500109, AND MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN, CONTAINING APPROXIMATELY 3.9464 ACRES AND OWNED BY MANATEE COUNTY, FROM THE URBAN CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT (UCBD) FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORY TO THE URBAN CORE (URBCORE) FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORY; PROVIDING FOR APPLICABILITY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. 6

Page 2 of 8 4-15-2026 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – J. Griffith Chair Neal opened the public hearing and asked the Commissioners if there had been any ex parte communications regarding any agenda items. All said no. Robin Singer, Planning and Community Development Director, stated that Scott Rudacille, City attorney and Ben Bakker, Vice-Chair had to recuse themselves from this agenda item due to potential conflict of interest. Jamie Schindewolf, Senior Planner, presented information related to the applicant’s request to change the property future land use from Urban Central Business Core (URBCORE) to Urban Core (URBCORE). Her presentation included a parcel map and comparison facts about the two categories. Erica Augello, Conflict Counsel, stated that the draft of Ordinance 4067 needed to be amended to include a development agreement because the property was in the Coastal High Hazard Area. She recommended the revision: “ that a provision be added to the ordinance with the contingency that a future use land map change would only be granted if the ordinance included a development agreement with regard to the Coastal High Hazard Area and with regard for the mitigation and evacuation plan.” Ms. Augello agreed the language could be added as a stipulation. Staff Report: “This Comprehensive Map Amendment request, if approved, will expand the Urban Core designation to the west of its current boundary. However, it does not impact the contiguousness of the district, as the subject property is adjacent to 1401 Manatee Avenue West, a property already classified as Urban Core. The applicant provided an extensive Community Impact Report, which has been provided to Council as an attachment with this agenda item. The major difference in the two future land use categories is the difference in the number of potential units. Under UCBD, the site could have up to 148 units. Under Urban Core, the site could have up to 789 units (only if approved for a bonus by City Council). If a bonus is not requested, the site would be allowed 236 units under the Urban Core designation. In the Community Impact Report, the applicant has indicated that they intend to request a density increase for a total of 345 multifamily units. This will come before City Council as a separate request. The applicant has also included a Traffic Study and a Hurricane Mitigation Plan with the Community Impact Report which should be considered as part of the decision-making process.” Paige Estigarribia, ZNS Engineering and Agent for Manatee County Government, explained the applicant was pursuing a Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment on the subject property. She stated that all Comprehensive Plan Review Criteria had been met (Visual Impact Analysis, Land Use Assessment, Traffic Study, Environmental Impact Assessment, Area Impact Assessment, and Hurricane Evacuation Analysis) and summarized the findings. Ms. Estigarribia provided reasons for this change. 7

Page 3 of 8 4-15-2026 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – J. Griffith Chair Neal asked for clarification of what the Commission was considering for the ordinance. Ms. Estigarribia clarified the commission was only to vote on the land use amendment and there were no development plans to vote on at the meeting. Commissioner Green inquired if the developer would finance the reconstruction needed to the property’s seawall. Chris Kennedy, Environmental Consultant with Kimley-Horn, answered that the goal would be that the reconstruction was financed through public-private partnership, but funding sources were undetermined at that time. Commissioner Taylor pointed out that the seawall was installed in the 1960s and remained in unimproved condition for many years. Commissioner Autry asked if any reintroduction of mangroves was planned after the seawall reconstruction. Mr. Kennedy responded that most of the mangroves would not be impacted. He explained that the goal was to reconstruct the seawall closest to its current location and minimize the impact on the mangroves. Chair Neal opened the public comment portion of the hearing. Those who spoke in opposition to Ordinance 4067: Marilyn Young, 1523 6 th Avenue West Joy Bonner, 1523 6 th Avenue West Mary Charlene Hill, 1523 6 th Avenue West Tina Dodge, 1312 6 th Avenue West Kay Harper, Bradenton Josie Rivera, 4505 Dover Street Yvonne Buffington, 1523 6 th Avenue West Thomas Slagill, 1523 6th Avenue West Patricia Neary Hayward, 1523 6 th Avenue West Donna Mathias, 1600 1st Avenue West Elizabeth Kercher, 1523 6 th Avenue West Daniel Block, 1523 6 th Avenue West Commissioner Taylor reminded the public that the vote for the Planning Commission was regarding a map change and that any further development would be reviewed during the permitting process. He stated the Planning Commission could not consider many issues brought up in public comment because the Commission could only vote on the Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment request. Ms. Augello added the Commission should also make sure the changes complied with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan. 8

Page 4 of 8 4-15-2026 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – J. Griffith Chair Neal asked if anyone else wished to speak, no one came forward and the public comment portion was closed. Ms. Estigarribia addressed some of the remarks made by the public. She stated that parking for this property was governed by the City of Bradenton’s code. Michael Yates, Palm Traffic, presented a conceptual site plan to illustrate proposed property access. He explained the proposed primary access point would be on 6 th Avenue West and the current access on 15 th Street West would be removed. He added that the proposed property would include a pedestrian feature along 15 th Street West. Mr. Yates said the developers were working with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for a finalized plan, which would be shown during the site review process. Mr. Kennedy addressed some concerns from the public. He presented a diagram of preliminary listed species surveys for the property which showed that there was no evidence of protected wildlife present. He displayed aerial views of the parcel that showed the mangroves and vegetation over time. Mr. Kennedy stated that in order to move forward with development, all consultations with Florida Fish and Wildlife and Army Corp of Engineers would be required throughout the permitting process. Vice Chair Bakker asked about claims of pollution. Mr. Kennedy responded that his observations related to the wetlands, and they had been impacted and degraded historically. He stated there were no expectations of any adverse effects on water quality from this project. Nathan Kragt, ZNS Engineering, spoke about flooring and stormwater concerns. He informed the Commission that the elevation of the finished project would be consistent with nearby properties. He explained that a permit from the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) was mandatory and that it would require the stormwater at the site be treated before being released. He stated that all drainage plans would need approval from all permitting departments. Chair Neal closed the public hearing. Ms. Singer pointed out that the zoning for the property was not changing. She clarified the details of changing the future land use for this project was for density and floor area ratio. MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 4067 WITH THE REVISED LANGUAGE FROM CONFLICT COUNSEL AUGELLO REGARDING THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF BRADENTON was made by Commissioner Taylor and seconded by Commissioner Green. The motion passed 5-0 because Commissioner Whetstone was excused and Vice Chair Bakker abstained due to a potential conflict of interest. Chair Neal called for a recess at 3:25 p.m. and the meeting reconvened at 3:28 p.m. 9

The map below shows the area of the request along with surrounding Future Land Use designations.

Page 6 of 8 4-15-2026 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – J. Griffith “The Suburban Commercial Corridor zoning category is consistent with the Suburban Commercial Corridor future land use category, which is the proposed future land use category for this property along with the annexation. Designating these properties as Suburban Commercial Corridor is consistent with the designation of adjacent property that is already under the City’s jurisdiction. Granting this designation would extend the existing SCC zoning slightly south and along the intersection of Manatee Avenue West and 50th Street West. The Technical Memorandum provided by Kim Clayback P.E., Engineering Manager with City of Bradenton Public Works explains the existing utilities that are found on the site. There is no indication of any concern with meeting the demand for services. This memorandum is attached to this report as Exhibit E. Designating these lands under the Suburban Commercial Corridor zoning category does not conflict with the public interest. The property is in an area with a mixture of residential and low intensity office and commercial type uses. Because the intended future uses are those that fall under permitted per the use schedule in the Land Use Regulations, this designation is consistent with the purpose and intent of the LURs.” Robert Gause, with Gause and Associates, Inc. and Agent, summarized the details of the property and the reason for seeking annexation. Chair Neal asked Mr. Gause to explain the choice for Euclidean over Planned Development. He responded that Planned Development would require a submitted plan with the application and the owner currently did not have one. Chair Neal asked if anyone else wished to speak, no one came forward and the public comment portion was closed. The Public hearing was closed. MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 4073 was made by Commissioner Taylor and seconded by Vice Chair Bakker. The motion passed unanimously. MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 4074 was made by Commissioner Taylor and seconded by Commissioner Autrey. The motion passed unanimously. d) Planning & Community Development: Quasi-Judicial: Resolution 26-28 - PUBLIC HEARING A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BRADENTON APPROVING APPLICATION PLN-MAJ-26-0001 FOR A MAJOR AMENDMENT TO THE JORDAN CREEK EAST PLANNED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (PDP-23- 4841) TO APPROVE AN ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPTION FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1201 27 TH STREET EAST AND 2906 11 TH AVENUE EAST (PARCEL ID NUMBERS 1387000050 AND 1387200007), MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN; OPTION A IS A PDP SITE PLAN FOR 66 SEMIDETACHED RESIDENTIAL UNITS AS APPROVED WITH ORDINANCE 11

Page 7 of 8 4-15-2026 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – J. Griffith 4027; OPTION B IS A PDP SITE PLAN FOR 106 TOWNHOME UNITS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Chair Neal opened the public hearing for Resolution 26-28. Ms. Schindewolf summarized details of the property. She explained that the applicant was originally approved for 33 single family attached buildings, with each dwelling unit (total of 66) on its own individual lot. She said they were now seeking approval for a residential development containing 106 residential units comprised of a mixture of four-unit and six-unit townhomes. Staff Report: “The applicant is requesting a reduction as follows: 20-foot-wide buffer with plantings located within the outer 10 feet of the 20-foot buffer. This is requested in order to avoid utility and drainage easements as to not interfere with the safe operation and maintenance of the infrastructure and easement areas. In addition, this request was approved with the existing approved preliminary plat approval PDP-23-4841 Accessory structures have not been proposed as part of this application, but Commission/Council may want to get clarification on whether they will be allowed, and if so, what setbacks will be allowed. The applicant is not proposing the construction of a neighborhood activity center. It appears at this time that the proposed request largely meets the requirements set forth in the LURs for PDPs. It is recommended to get additional clarity regarding the possibility of accessory structures, and the commission and council must consider the request for the reduction in buffer standards (which matches what was granted with Option A).” Josh Law, Agent for Jordan Creek at Bradenton East, summarized the details of the property. He stated the proposed Option B is not to supersede the approved plan it was to provide an additional option to develop the property. Commissioner Taylor asked Mr. Law about allowable accessory structures and the policy for future residents. Mr. Law said he was unaware of the policy for accessory structures and Commissioner Taylor recommended that the developer add a policy to the Homeowners Association documents. Chair Neal opened the public comment portion and asked if anyone wished to speak. Deborah Stevenson, 1202 27 th Street East, spoke in opposition to the proposed plan and was concerned about traffic and speeding. Susie Copeland, 1010 27 th Street East, spoke in opposition and voiced concerns with increased traffic on 27 th Steet East from the proposed option B plan. 12
