Each individual would be given 3 minutes to speak and after which the microphones will be muted. The only speaker is do we Carruthers. One of Mr. Carruthers. >> Good morning. I my name is doing Carruthers I run a think tank that's based here in St. Petersburg called the Carruthers Institute. We conduct craft solutions and lead advocacy on many issues. I'm here this morning because I want clear up some a community. I'm here this morning to talk about that he not a theft epidemic in Pinellas County and St. Petersburg and I've some new data just came out from the Florida Department of juvenile justice that I wanted to share. I think there's some misperceptions in the community that because teen auto thefts of went down somewhat the problem is solved and I thought the data would be a good place to go to clear up any misperceptions there has been a firm fiscal year, 1617 to fiscal year 1718 there has been a significant drop in the county and St. Petersburg regarding teen auto theft. It's a drop by 35% which is initially seemingly good But it's important to understand that although this 35% decrease in one year heartening that analysis still ranks second in the state. Okay, so in other words in Ellis County was first in the state with the number 2 thefts. We didn't go to 60 or 67. We went to number 2. The were behind only Broward Pinellas County still accounts for 10% of all the teen auto thefts in the state. More specific the St. Petersburg of the top 20 zip codes. Again this is all data from Department of juvenile justice of the top 20 zip codes in a state 3 of those are in St. Petersburg 3, 3, 7, 1, 2 was ranks 6th in the state in terms of number of teen auto thefts, 3, 3, 7, oh 5 was ranked 11th and 3, 3, 7, 1, one was ranked 17th. I would also say that most importantly a three-year snapshot looking at the number of deaths shows that there have been 11 deaths over the past 3 years. And there have been 2 in the last 6 months. So what the data tells us is that there will be more deaths 2019 preps 2020. Just you're going to become on this later, but just to let you know our study the short-term study, a short-term goal of the study is too reduce teen auto thefts. But the long-term goal of the study is too address the root causes of the teen auto thefts. Thank you for taking time to listen to me. Thank you. >> Before we go on I'd like to recognize that in chambers today is for mayor Bill Foster. I was privileged to serve under mayor Foster when he set your in City Hall and welcome. It's always good to see you. Next we'll go to a public hearing citing he won. >> amending the city code that definitions for the municipal pier. >> Mister Chair City Council morning. At the mare happy New Year. Chris Paul Lester, a city development. Before you today is an ordinance a public hearing for the. A 2 part a within the a renaming the municipal pier which over the years has had at least 5 that we've been able to identify different names. This changes the definitions with in our city a coat an ordinance down to 3. The municipal pier in municipal pier approach and the municipal water district. What that does it also allows the term interchangeably to be used with b. Saint Pete pier. Which is a in a trademark process as we speak in awe these changes will keep these names consistent with the waterfront. Parks map. The downtown waterfront masterplan in town redevelopment plan. Over financing documents that we've utilized to for bonding the pier project as well as other charter amendments like the most recent one we've done with Tampa Bay watch. Most importantly it allows a us to promote a really a uniform and as noted in your report and an ambiguous ability to regulate. With a singular name. With a couple of trenches there and so the ordinance that is the focus of the ordinance but there's another component of it which addresses naming rights that the Marine education Center at the pier. On our lease with Tampa Bay watch. We've given them. Granted them a right to name the building. And they actually have a a a the prospect that they're finalizing their agreement with the Milky Foundation. The representatives from the Tampa Bay organization the board and the Milky Foundation here if we can let them say hello quickly again that will what it does what the ordinance does is it it doesn't name the building today, it grants you the right the resolution. At a later date to name the building. And we anticipate bringing that forward to you with some lease amendment changes on Feb. 7th. With that it gives you authority to control the building itself and that naming process of you having to do an ordinance every time and at a master level allows us to affected licata fi a unified. Safety peer name with the corresponding a municipal pier municipal pier approach and municipal pier district. Names within the ordinance. Work closely with legal on the subject if I. Butchered any components of that I would I would ask for their assistance if you have any questions. Thereafter we look forward to upbringing that resolution forward on the actual building name shortly and with that administration recommends approval on this ordinance before we proceed, let me read title. I'm sorry Mister Clerk. >> Bree proceed, let me read that at least 2. Norma Semitic city code to add definitions for me the scoop This book peer approach and municipal pier district innings city code to reflect that the municipal pier district will be named. The Saint Pete is the Saint Pete here and that the Marine education center of the municipal pier May be named by the Tenet subject to approval by City Council in providing effective date and we do not have any cards in this I think you are. Mr. Lester did you want anyone have a Baywatch sure the motive Foundation to speak and they have a busy day if I could indulge a council for a couple If I can bring up a Peter Clarke Mister Kevin o'keefe for a moment, let's talk about what's coming we've got a lot happening out there that piers you know right now. Thank you Chris, good morning, everyone running happy New Year. Just want to say what an honor it is to be able to form a partnership with the Milken family Foundation in order to help advance the discovery center down on the pier. As you know we have quite an investment and not only the building. But the programs and operations and other equipment in order to get to the citizens and the visitors in the kids up there to appreciate the value of the Tampa Bay history. And with that like to introduce Kevin milky from the Milken family Foundation. >> Good morning, happy New Year or so I was here about a month ago so I don't want that much detail, longtime resident of Saint executive vice President Of American strategic insurance survey, uh Seidman a sigh And my wife and I we set up the Milken family Foundation specifically to support local charities. Including things like they started life about than their their new building and 20th Street South and Tampa Bay watch and among other But we go back a long way with Tampa Bay watch almost 20 years to my company in personally so I've known Peter in this team for a really long time so we're very supportive, what they're doing so. Thank you. Thank you. >> Thank you Mister Looking very with that just a fight tack on to his putting words in his mouth that it says is a fantastic story Tampa Bay watch was a relatively new organization. And yes, I had 5 employees. They happen to be neighbors at the us now on the market and so they go back 2025 years have developed a long-term relationship and it's a great. >> a way for a again a a growing and successful. >> Company to to provide than a philanthropic. A touch point back a company that does such a good job, a 5, 1, c 3 in Tampa Bay to our community. In our Tampa Bay estuary. So again we're very happy with this arrangement. We look forward to bringing forward the final resolution to you in about a month. Thank you. Motion a second. We have in the discussion council member Rice. >> Thank you Chairman And I want to think of Mister Milky and the the Staffan leaders of Tampa Bay watch. I feel like we haven't talked about the Marine education Center at the cure nearly enough, and I'm so excited because I think it's such a big part of our new pier and it really says a lot about the directions and values of our city and today, the themes the environment so I just wanted to if you'll indulge me I just wanted to remind people. The short list of sustainable measures and features that we have as part of the pier district that I think the Marines center is going to reflect so well. We have solar pv panel covered market structures in solar pv panel covered parking canopies in the parking lot. There's the restoration of spa ph concrete structure designed to last 80 years. Concrete structure design for sea level rise. Plans designed to be flood resilient able to drain and reopened with minimal impact by a retention pond and swells for natural treatment of room eliminated roadway in parking of personal vehicles and the Associated pollution over the Bay, new break letters to mitigate or ocean and to protect seagrass pets. There's a maintenance free plan for the coast a thicket including know fertilizers over the Bay. There's the incredible restoration of seagrass pets which for I think undoubtedly be reaching all. But the work we're doing electric tram an electric vehicle charging stations environmental education programs are a lady lighting adaptive reuse of concrete from the demolition of or appear use of certain circles concrete at the scene law enforcement and high recycled content in the concrete and metal construction materials. So this is I think this is the values that we like to wear. On our sleeves and we still have a lot of work to do citywide. On environmental issues but I just want to thank you all for being a trusted stewards of a Marine Centre and though heart of the pier and we look forward to supporting you in your success so thank you so much for your work is so so so important. Thank you. Thank you council member Rice, I'm doctor Clark, there's a couple of others here with you this morning would you like to I know who they are but perhaps. >> Community should know who's with you here this morning to queue appreciate that.

We'd like take care of get finished, we have Council year and some others so it's item f one. I mean to go to my cheat sheet here for. Actually the 3 months to start. I apologize he 3. There's an issue an issue an initial presentation by each party. And we'll start by presentation by city administrations. >> Such air and the turpin's for the u and have staff and anyone speaking in connection with deny 3 to stand and raise your right hand. Anyone that's going to speak or testify please stand up and raise your right hand. You are. >> My name is Robyn Keith and I'm a planner with the urban planning an historic preservation division be out. I'm here to present on city files e and 8 which is a request for a Reno name of the property currently known as the nation mobile home court. The subject property is owned by Saint Pete it for 54 llc the community planning and preservation Commission voted to approve the application 7, 0, On Dec. 11th. Staff of received 5 phone calls mostly from residents requesting more information however to have voiced opposition additionally we have received a petition with 29 signatures from residents who say that they are not opposed to the rezoning but that they would like to have input into the site plan. Review stage which I have detail that process to them. They just want to get that on the record. We have spoken with our zoning official and they are aware of some of the concerns that have been expressed. Right the subject property is generally located north of 54th Avenue North. Between 4 Street North and for Street North. It is approximately 19 point acres in size consisting of 17 went 11 acres of upland surrounding a 2.6 8 acre man-made Lake. It is currently utilizes a grandfathered mobile home park with 217 mobile home pads and 10 rv pads. And there are no according to a letter we have received from applicant there are no current mobile home owners on the property. The desired for the property is multifamily residential and potentially apartments. However, it is important to note that approval of this rezoning would not the Apple came to any specific development. The request here today is to amend to the official zoning map designation from neighborhood mobile home to neighborhood suburban multifamily one. And up on the screen you can see on the left and existing zoning map with the subject property, an outline. To the west of the property is commercial out corridor suburban zoning. And to the north is neighborhood suburban multifamily which we're going to bring South. I'd actually there is some neighborhood traditional to the east there's neighborhood suburban and to the south additional neighborhood mobile home zoning. As far as existing uses the property on the West has some strip commercial and office development to the north is multifamily in single family to the east multifamily single family and to the south another mobile home park and the Salvation Army retail store. Additionally it is important to note that for Street North first Street North and 54th Avenue North are all major streets. Making this making multifamily residential an appropriate use for this specific property. There is a change and development potential opposed by the rezoning before I get into that it is important to note that the future land use designation in this case is not changing it is currently residential medium and it will stay residential medium which already allows a density of up to 15 units per acre. Under the existing neighborhood mobile home zoning 158 mobile home. Make mobile homes May be allowed based on the density of 8 units per acre. However this mobile home park does have grandfathered status. And currently has 225 units recognized by the Florida Department of business and professional regulation which equates to about 11 units per acre and the reason it's grandfather's because of those additional units under the proposed 297 multifamily units based on 15 units per acre could be built. Due to the city's schools for workforce housing unaffordability we do offer a workforce housing density bonus which would also be available at 6 units per acre if requirements were met. There are some considerations here given that the property is located in the coastal high hazard area. Is also an hurricane evacuation level I am a fema flood zone. The existing mobile home park does not comply currently with books sorry. With any of the minimum flood elevation standards required by our code today. The reason staffer support this redevelopment is that any new redevelopment would need to meet all require design standards which would make the area more resilient overall in the event of a storm event. The relevant comprehensive policies to consider today there are additional ones in your report that a highlight these. Land-use policies, 3.6 3.8. Address established character the predominantly developed area as well as incompatible you says we feel given what I have detailed about the multifamily and commercial uses in the commercial nature of the property currently that proposed rezoning is going to meet both of those policies. Additionally we have land-use policy 9 which states that the city shall continue to define and regulate nonconforming grandfathered use is consistent with the requirements of chapter one 63. For the purpose of reducing or eliminating land uses that are inconsistent with the character of the community, including repetitive loss and other properties that do not comply with minimum fema. Elevation standards this is the policy that that we are considering. And some other requested neighborhood suburban multifamily one zoning is consistent the future land use and land category residential medium. It is an appropriate transition between the commercial zoning on the fore Street corridor. The multifamily in single family zone into the North and to the east as well as the a mobile home zoning to the south. There is no additional intrusion to residential use is given that the property is already commercial in nature furthermore is important to note that compatibility with eu says surrounding the property art is going to be further insured through a site plan review process that would be required for developments. I'm over 60 unit. So there will be another opportunity to dress site plan specific considerations, any redevelopment will be required to meet our current design standards and there is no significant level of service impact. So are we all to met recommendation to you is going to be approval of this application. As we've stated today is simply our first public instead we ask you to set second public retain and the adoption hearing for Jan. 17th. Thank you. Becomes a need to read the title for this ordinance. On the submitting the officials only at the city of St. Petersburg Florida by changing the zoning of property located at. 5, 4, 7, 5, 3rd Lane north from in in h the neighborhoods mobile home too Ines in one neighborhood suburban multifamily providing for repeal of conflicting or its ordinances and provisions and providing effective date and has indicated the public second reading a second public hearing is on Jan. 17. 2019. Thank you Mr. Jackie if it council member Cornell has a question of city administration should be asked right now we're. >> I think we should complete the that okay presentations first happened okay hearing in sight. Presentation by the applicant Mister Masry. >> My name is Don mastery my dress 200 Central Avenue and I do represent the applicant and I would like to reserve my remarks with a second public hearing. The latest United here in the saving by any opponent. An answer any questions you May have, but it's just be repetitious. Seeing no one rising as an opponent will move on to the public hearing portion for anyone from the public have no cards for this item council member Cornell. The why question and I. I'm allowed asked tough questions on this one are because it's a public hearing, it's not all the judicial. Cross examination, and every bottle okay how it however. Could you explain to me. I don't I don't remember the details of it but I know we have something in our plan that says we will not build in the coastal high hazard area. And how. And then there was it was addressed somewhat, but it wasn't you know from my understanding. It was addressed we built 2 feet up and it's ok to go ahead and and and that is that is that my understanding correct or. You referring to the increases in density or you for into a separate policy, I'm sorry. >> Don't remember and have to go look it up. But somewhere in our plan we said we will not build in all ok postal high hazard area I can address and now we're proving another one in the coastal high hazard area. So historically the staff interpretation has banned to use the future land use designation as that baseline criteria and as long as the future land use designation density is not increasing with this application. We interpreting it to mean that it is meeting that standard. The future land use designation is an adopted designation that is our proposal are expected ah future development for the area been approved by the and that's why that's why we feel, but it meets that standard. Okay that they queue that answers my question I have the bigger a bigger question on a policy and in general, but that's not really appropriate for a public hearing so o all stop there, thank you. Get them moved through the balance and then we'll go the council member just seeing that there's no opponent appearing today. An opponent won't have cross cross by cross-examination by the city. No city ok Mister Masry cross. Rebuttal the city. Mister Masry rebuttal by the applicant. Okay council member Driscoll thank you. >> It was it was indicated by the applicant that there were no mobile home Currently residing on the property is there anyone at all currently residing on the property who is not an owner. Yes there are tenants on the property. Approximately how and we are unsure of the exact number let me see if I can find that water or even I mean is it half full. >> Would you repeat that number because Mister Masters out Mike would you repeat that. It's a 150. >> I know in May in 8 and looking at our. That people work here and it there's a Florida statute that Steve says the city should not approve or rezoning of mobile home park unless adequate mobile home parks or other facilities exist for relocation of owners. But concerns that we have people who are not owners. You will need to be relocated and I'd like to know if there has been. Assistance in place anything to to help folks because typically if you if you live in a mobile home, it's pretty affordable. We don't have a lot of affordable options for folks in our city these days and my concern is just for that for the well being of those who do live there who are not owners how they might be accommodated elsewhere. A council member just go maybe I can address that slightly part of the Florida requirements that you see referenced in the ordinance. Has enhanced notice requirements. And that also has to be done through the mobile home park Association, you're required to notice the association you're required to send notice. 2 residents and owners. The language does say that you have to make sure that adequate. Precautions and measures have been taking to relocate folks that own the mobile homes themselves but not necessarily the. Land underneath it. But those notices do go to everyone and there is probably a lake. I'd say at least a 90 day where they can contest if you're a resident in the park or the association itself can contest. You can offer to buy the park and then the park owner would have to negotiate with them so there has been and enhanced process it's not this isn't the first notice. I think for the folks that live in the park. And it's my understanding and I think as you might have part of that in his application for next time, especially since there's been some Council questions. But staff did review the notices and make sure that the Florida statue like he said the notices when they were supposed to send that we treated their responses if any properly and it's my understanding that prior to coming to the city he made sure that he was complying with 7.23 and that folks we're re cloak aid if they wanted to be I think there was a choice that you could be relocated with states service is because there is a provision in the state law for state provided services or statements to relocate folks out of mobile home parks that are being converted perhaps to another use. And I think that was a choice with a lot of folks did take that option and some folks said I just want to stay here and rent and then when I have to leave I'll leave. I think that's my understanding of the situation. But I had and one in declare fi was that just because people aren't the owners. In that that doesn't mean that they shouldn't have the opportunity to get services or the assistance that they need to relocate. So my my concern is for the best interests of the residents. I'm not just the owners. Will have the application of respond to that at the next public as well as I want to update the record according to the application narrative. There are 60 tenants remaining on the property. Ok, thank you so I would just like to have more information on. You know what type of notice was given to those residents and how the relocation process is going for them. Thank you. Thank you. Mister Chair. Sure thank you Justin Rice did you get your question answered. >> All right. Thank you, okay.

For being a leader and keeping us focused and directed. So that we don't just talk the talk we walk the walk. Thank you Sharon and every City Council colleague who serves on the hearse Committee. For all your work and the momentum you've created. Council member Rice just shared with me she thinks maybe we've turned a corner and I agree with her and I think we ought to be a. I think we ought to be going full speed ahead so those are really Charitable gift to the city and I think it's well deserved as well so we're going to start off with finishing our public hearings were going to go to eat to text amendments to the comprehensive plan. And when development regulations. Yes, Mister Cook please read the title. >> And the land development regulations of the city cold and meaning chapter 3 the future land use elements of the plan outdoor performing arts being you as a commercial recreational use for the industrial general, I g category. I mean the chapter 16 of the city code to include outdoor performing arts venue in the matrix. Permissions and parking requirements in creating a new section, 16 got 5, 0, about 2, 3, 5, Out of performing arts venue establishing the use and development standards trying to get permission about a former arts being you section, 16.9 0, 2, 0.3 by to preserve ability to providing in effect today in the public hearing for this heightened risk on the viewer 21th of 2019. Thank you Mister Clerk morning. At the morning Council. Britain Wilson man or 2. Presenting a privately admit that to the comprehensive plan and the land development code. For the purpose of allowing the use of an outdoor performing arts venue in the industrial general land-use category and the industrial traditional zoning district. So the proposed amendment before you is not site specific but a regulatory use provision applicable citywide to all parcels that had a land use of industrial general and as owning of industrial, a And so to accomplish this goal, the first proposed tax minute language shown here in red is added to conference of plan You 3, 1, see 2. That speaks to the industrial generally news category stating that the proposed use of an outdoor performing arts venue should be categorized as a commercial recreation use with no acreage limitation which will in effect allow it as a primary stand alone years. At this proposed moving which is consistent with and modeled after the county why plan rules that are showing years allowing commercial recreation uses such as performance, the news as a primary use in the industrial land use category. Additionally a text them into the land development regulations as necessary with a new use of an outdoor performing arts venue is added to the zoning use permissions matrix where the shown here and highlight reads that it is a an establishment used for regularly scheduled public presentation of life or pre-recorded performances where public assembly areas are primarily located outside of fully enclosed buildings or structures. They use is proposed to be allowed in the industrial traditional zoning district only through the case by case special exception review process. Where it will be subject to the special exception standards review. Additionally the text amendment proposes use specific development standards. Of which the development standards are generally propose here as requiring an annual operating plan as well as it annoys lighting and traffic circulation plans. And of course any public safety permits related to group assembly events and so appropriate demonstration of all these plans will be required at the time of a site-specific special exception application. And then now says contained in the staff report supports the proposed use of an outdoor performing arts venue and the industrial traditional zoning district because it will diversify the city's arts community broaden the industrial ace provide for an interim use of underperforming industrial lands and lastly the proposed a minute what spanned the tourism base. And for these reasons and staff is requesting approval to transmit the proposed text amendment to the conference of plan and set the adoption hearing for Feb 21th and that concludes my presentation, I'm happy to answer questions as well as the applicant. And Bill and it was Kevin math agent on behalf of. Cher in Bob Beamon. >> The owners of this piece of property and the individuals who wish to develop it into an opera performer spent. Happy to answer any questions you have. Resolution Sir thank you. Well deserved in who's funding earlier with you guys talking about the pair to the 2 that were on Council. When I was mayor thank you for letting we close the pier. I mean was a little unfortunate. Good presentation was Wilson. Week agree with this change this text amendment. And I am envious of the position that you're in because 7 years ago when I knew that there would never be a new stadium. In this particular area. I thought about what could be done with 85 acres of urban redevelopment the intense mixed uses that that you guys in your vision will we'll go through from entertainment retail office potential convention green spaces recreation. Residential transience the whole that whole parcel. So it's exciting but in the meantime I liked Miss Wilson's use of interim economic use because well this is not site specific. We do have some and underutilized industrial areas and having this having an outdoor music venue entertainment venue is the perfect interim economic use in an industrial area. It comes with all sorts of planning in special events prove all these things that will get worked out, but it compliments the edge district the compliments Grand Central the compliments the deuces and it's certainly an arts venue within the warehouse sorts district. So consistent with the county why plan all we're doing is really mirroring what the county does. As far as allowing the outdoor entertainment venue in an industrial area without an acreage limitations, so I can't think of a a a a better use. Something that certainly is consistent. And while not site specific. The property that we're talking about this would be a perfect use and the there's nothing like it in the city we've got we've got the noi we've got over with and we got Janice, but you've got 2000 the 20,000, but we don't have anything to really support the arts. An outdoor entertainment. A medium range. So this would certainly compliment everything that you guys want to do when it comes to supporting the orders and certainly in an appropriate area which this is so I fully support this my hope you'll move it to the second hearing. Thank you all. Thank you mayor. So my question my question is. >> Affect all industrial and I understand our industrial and the spread out kind of based on railroads. My question is can I get him out that shows that because because even though this is a specific request in a specific location. We are on this early enough I just would like to get a copy of it so I can see it. You know in kind if you want to sell it. But if you have a map. Compared to if you can pull up that her point presentation. The dark gray areas are the properties within the city that are zoned industrial tradition that follow the historic average. A historic railroad track. >> And so I and so I sing you know I want to I want to understand out a little better because even though it's not a final you have approval you can do it here. I get all that a go slow process, but it also puts in a process that makes it easier to do it. In those low other locations and I want to and understand the implications the other piece of information that I really feel like I need to make a a a decision on the second reading is it was somewhat unclear. Using the temporary parking Going to be for so long that will last for so I would assume in the redevelopment of the Tropicana slate that that part we not leave a parking lot there for use in the warehouse arts district. So how do we how do we think about that I want to understand not also on understand. There was discussion of the cppcc. Luca Mister Sense of this could be like the amphitheater in Tampa. And the answer was yes. But I don't think it could be because I think I don't think the parcel of land with a while that number those numbers of people but I want to I want to understand very clearly I want to have to go through equation the figure out on this parcel of land as being of that is this is the size of that in this is the number of people that can go here for a concert in that. I just want I just want that really clear because at one point there was discussion about 780 parking spaces being required. Can you can kind of capitalize up from New York. >> The shirt, huge individual site out will be assessed for Parking demands. And what each site can accommodate per parking would dictate the amount of people who could at 10 this particular venue So that could change depending on the location and depending on the parking options in the parking agreements that are in place through that special exception process. You're correct the limiting factor for an event but likely be the parking. What would be the maximum though if taking the land with nothing on it. And a guy with a one guy with the guitar going to stand on a few feet. I would like to understand what that maximum number would be of people that could go on that land because I think even though there's no. We get to the materials and correct me if I'm not remembering this correctly that residential is about 3 blocks away. Well 3 blocks away from the and the theater in Tampa. Is is a large impact on those people that are 3 blocks away and and and I know we're not going to be as large as the the amphitheater I believe I know that and currently of that's incorrect. But I would just like to understand. Be and so I'd like I think in this case. The idea that we're going to contain all the noise within a one Walker to block area and it's not going to that 3rd block is probably. Probably not not I don't see how that could possibly be accurate. So I'd like like that like to see maybe that the neighborhood got involved a little more in in are aware of what's happening. >> If they help to answer some of those questions Elizabeth Abernethy director of planning and development services. So we share a lot of your concerns about potential impacts that's one of the reasons why we have 5 proposed development standards and that we staff is supporting this only as a special exception use where a specific site is going to have to go through the d r c and evaluate all of the site specific criteria in addition to these 5 criteria that are really going to require that a new way study be prepared by a professional. Noise consultant that they're going to have to provide an annual operating plan that's going to tell us what their projection is for the number of people so that we can understand the magnitude. They're gonna have to provide a that that goes over their outdoor lighting a traffic circulation plan and any other specific things that staff might have a concern about during that site plan review process, so any site that is going to be coming forward for an application is going to be a subject to that very specific site review before that about development review Commission surrounding property owners will be noticed the neighborhood Association will be noticed so that's why we're recommending that this be a special exception process that helped to answer some of those no it doesn't eye to eye. I guess I guess what I were icon reached the conclusion after reading all the material is that I'd like to have some specific answers. Before I vote for this because not not that we go through the whole process, the because it's inevitable right now we're saying there's a special exception process and it's there's these 5 Kurds criteria, it's not guaranteed. But I think it's almost inevitable that when somebody else once at some point when somebody wants to do this and they come forward. If Council says no you don't people oh how could you deny me I did everything that was required in the coding you tonight be that's unfair in. You're a terrible person and nobody should ever develop in St. Petersburg cnn and so I think for me knowing that that's coming at some point likely based on history. I'd like to understand a little more. Of the details of the site during that it's something the applicant can provide to you I appreciate it and and if if many of the Sunni know with my specific questions and and life I the staff report and I just want to make sure that we're. No not trying to be Rob the route the heat on the usage limits rightfully well I clearly understand what I'm voting was like I said we share a lot of those concerns so I think we were very careful and. >> Creating these developments standards that would require an applicant to answer those types of questions when they're looking at a specific site and I saw the attorneys talk because they know good and well the next time they're doing one of these May come forward with that once this process in place. They know they're not going to say we understood it was just a it could be denied they're going to say. It's in your code in and all those kinds of our I want to make sure I under I understand it and clear about what her and that the communities involved in clear about what we're doing. Thank you. >> Right out in the motion to approve the ordinance resolution for public hearing in Feb. 21th we've proven fact. But we have a motion in a second for the ordinance and resolution to move to public hearing on 2/21/2019 would please of machine for Mr. >> Council members a few 100 votes. Seeing that all council members have voted Miss Court would you please tally and announce the vote and chair Mister Chair, I'm sorry. Not the motion to approve of the night and the 2 any in the passes unanimously, yeah. >> Going to f one trans map corporation architect engineering agreement you. Place any bets on whether stadium will be on that property nightmare. >> On a happy New Year. Somebody tore was here just a few minutes of them. The new inspiring me. Today after a fit a very short I know you're a long day but I really wanted to run through Quickly we'd also have representative from the company that we're recommending want to he can on off to detail technical questions on there. The equipment and the services they provide. Today we are asking for approval for purchase and installation and operation off a system called a trance map it's going to be a pavement management system as being supplied by a heart transplant. China has done this a they've also done this locally and it. The basis of the people in management system is to provide a systematic and objective approach that he took a lack collection and analysis. Review in the industry standard process. And it also gives us a we have systematically and scheduling maintenance. In a proactive manner. He says all are older sections in good condition. And in a proactive approach we can develop cost to Cosco busan also deterioration to us for predictive analysis of floral weeks. Data collection will incorporate a lot of elements to will be collected and delivered a sudden she isd the peace which will fully integrate into existing gst to be a Safire, always. Pavement type segment. Lang's while we do have all a lot of this data enology as did the us that this will more accurately collect it. But also being able to pick up into could align months and general John the tree of to really so we'll have more accurate information and with the knowledge that the us. So we can also use that to fund a tussle support of the projects and other initiatives as all that data is collected it comes in and goes into very objective approach for eating ruled we is again it says based on the stm stand, it's and the p w e certified. The locals I will of teen and this would be a g I s d to be a swift to back up the to again that will be implemented database and we will be able to review round classify rudely segments based on industry yes money but the pwc the va 7 point all right now as the vote by the us Army Corps of Engineers is the program that will be implemented for us and that the program is a pwc is that the fight what it allows us to do is to do proactive again maintenance full all costs we can actually look at the route segments across the city in a g I s will they haven't be able to identify quickly which ruled the segments can be used to this beast on the budgetary allegations that we do have but also run cost analysis and looking at how much do we have to spend to mean Tina how much do we have to spend to get back to a certain level. So again looking at a protective models to maintaining the future level of service conditions that require. I've also included some of the type of data that we will receive. Now this is to Lisa Pratt management and I to Fullerton Wolf but this is the level of information that will be able to get to. And again full classification a ruling. A lot of this detail we will also be using census g I g I s p s to overly with all see I p planning and looking at other projects from other departments to ensure that we Courtney projects and the effect of But I asked for approval. So protests how do we how do we manage. We do have the people in management system it is a beast in g I s but this will be a complete update on the system. It is more time consuming it subjective because you actually have to drive through it you have to run an analysis extract that the to see which one of the segments but not rose to this within a period of time. Then look at the damage overly at that on touchy as map see which 6 months we have to go in dry for now as opposed to this information it will actually be picking up to the to while they will be qc in the d to. It will be she and I can it will be classified to really write ability slopes. Cracks and then objective minus so it's a lot time and efficiency on staff time. That will lead to what's this product also the more bile approach updating the data and once we obtained the data. I mean put it into a resurfacing program. We and we resurfaced that section rudely we update the program now that goes into new classifications is to continue its a life system as opposed to now it is life but it does not go into the deaths and an analysis has to be done by engine is driving the roots while we will still qc the route from time to time you know some roadways even know when we collected it to me all of a sudden develop a pothole that we have to escalate we will also have to verify, but it helps se Mendocino streamlining processes. So our our current system you mentioned the g I s system is that the sudden House. Yes, so it is a program that was written by. Some time ago. And it's the sickly the archive system tracking what was done. It doesn't help you predict. Project a few And it also does not give you the class of the category of road. We when I mean category 2 type Field classification of feeling this rotting. Potholes doesn't give you that it just gives you time when a slot recent this. >> Thank you and my other question is. >> How do they take into account like other other projects storm water projects or other. Sewer re linings or or whatever does it all go into the system. >> So this is where all planning really has to take part. We will get that data will have to overlay upcoming projects and look at that in an objective manner and see ok well this this rule is program for 2022. Well in 2023, there's a drainage project scheduled rent says all g I s p is so that's not interaction that comes into >> Thank you thank you for the presentation. Thank you Mister Chair. So I just have a brief comment in well a question first. So how with this process need to be repeated. Because right now we go out and was he ok there's a pothole here you see fit. Or does the system to flag doesn't ever have to be repeated or does it just once it's done it's kind of takes on a life of the tone and so I can talk about the high
