I have about 45 a city cow. It says that had on you or will currently or you're an African American advancement in the city. But. According to doctor Cornell West Harvard University. Combatting racial injustice is more than skill acquisition rate. It's on it's off examination so from an environmental standpoint and from a philosophical point of view. Confluence is when 2 rivers of approximately the same went. Meet at a Junction right the intercept and a parallel I see that intersection being that Central Avenue. So the city of St. Petersburg ultimately is serving as the semiconductor that is Junction is with n as well as this region up transitioning now this region of transition would be considered Southside think p and any between this region there's conduction happening. You May add something what conduction is conduction is when there is a substance being directly transmitted and to an area when that happens. It called a change of temperature and the resolve is electrons from a scientific point of view. But ultimately it's homes right. According to Tim Bradshaw poverty is created and then perpetuated subjected point of view it said that the city is artificially feeling these potholes with the type of program that addresses. That the conservative type. How been the individual because the individuals in crisis there for the neighborhood. We're not you allergy. The neighborhood is in prices. Therefore that trickles down to the individual whether it be in on possible structure infrastructure, not enough grocery or health services within a half-mile radius. In my result would be to that is the idea of a festival be in local, that's your 2 things on local but discriminated against hip-hop John Breaux I have many conversations the past 3 years but keep Saint Pete local in their founder and she has explained to me how hip-hop is not appealing to a crowd 20,000 people and that could pop has prevented the. I am a taxpayer. You know, and I don't want to give local Tobia a sense of my money. So whenever the festivals do our current I would ask the city to please could consider that. Thank you. Thank you next year. >> Thank you live here. The current record ever. >> I'm sure there's one more speaker Nathan boomer making was returned to the meetings please please state your name and address for that record we have 3 minutes to address city. Carol. >> My name is Nathan Brimmer my address is one Beach drive. Unit 21 to 6. I appreciate having a few minutes to speak I sent e-mails to each of the City Council members I appreciate. The time I hope you're all well, it's nice to see some friendly faces in the midst of the last 6 months. I want to think City Council member in the Foster for bringing the resolution that is coming forward under new business. To oppose has proposed rule that is clearly discriminatory and rooted in. Unfortunate hate years ago I worked in homeless initiatives working both in Hillsborough County in Pinellas County and I so appreciate the City Council support of the Pinellas continued cares. Lead in this and frankly our city's lead across the state to take a stand and submit comments to ensure that Saint Pete is a safe place for anyone seeking refuge, especially or transgender citizens who May need to seek shelter when I really just why did take a moment to say thank you to each of you for the continued support, especially at a time when I think these services are as critical as ever. Back thank you. Which had engine on there. >> I thank you thank you and everyone you can't I the teacher. Next we will get you know. Cancer. There are as well. >> Madam Chair members of City nice to be with you today. Me I served as mayor I have had the other good fortune of any proclamations over the years recognizing an individual or organization. Or an and calling this a big attention to individual organization or issue. And today is another one of those occasions, although today. While all of them have been special and has significant meaning today for me this one have a little bit extra special meaning to me. As many of you all probably are aware. Year ago my wife was diagnosed. But nowhere in cancer. She is on her treatment successfully. And I'm very proud of her and she would be a much. A better than myself on this issue. But. There is one at one point and I think it's really important to make. And I know some of it is is discussed a little bit in the bottom of the proclamation itself, but this is one of cancers that is very difficult to detect. Diagnosis is very difficult. And. My message I think that I want to communicate is. For all the women in the community and that we know and we love. And that Please. If you suspect something go to a doctor and get Shaq don't turn to Google don't turn to the Internet to try and self-diagnose time is of the essence when it comes to ovarian cancer, the earlier it detected. The greater the success rate in survival rate is in so if you have any suspicions about your body that something doesn't sound if you're right please go get shot. So with that I'm going to read this proclamation. Whereas a very and cancer affects one in 78 women and 109 women have a lifetime risk of dying from the disease with 22,000 American women expected to get to be diagnosed this year. An estimated 14,000 deaths projected. And we have over 85% of women are diagnosed in later stages. And that less than half survive for 5 years and almost 75% will have a reoccurrence well overall mortality rate only slightly improved in the past 40 years. And whereas while they're in cancer is the deadliest of all gynecological cancers. There is no early detection test in diagnosis. It's challenging to comment and help them solve this. Some of those making awareness and education, the best tool for saving women's lives. And whereas September is ovarian cancer awareness month recognized across the country. But the memorials education campaigns and fundraisers. And whereas a local event raising funds for research awareness and direct patient support. And it's really a shun with the National ovarian cancer research alliance, including this all mass treat ovarian cancer Foundation's. In know where his campaign. And whereas the velvet mastery ovarian cancer Foundation hope on has distributed over $35,000 in 2020. The needle very in cancer patients in treatment and awarded a grant of $3,000 for treatment research. Now therefore I request the mayor of the city of St. Petersburg Florida. Do hereby proclaim the month of Sept. 20 20 to be ovarian cancer awareness month in Saint Peter. And I encourage all residents to learn more about some don't and the risk factors of ovarian cancer. Thank you Madam Chair. Thank you there. For all. >> I say we are that was happy. Treatment 50 doing well. It is kind of at that it hard. He is just really serving now. >> I will thank you very much. >> Ovarian cancer Foundation here. And they like to say a word. >> Yeah well that. Thank you very and I want to thank all of you for bringing this plot a proclamation to the city of St. Petersburg I'm proud to serve as a Chairman Or Foundation is 100% volunteer and we are existing through the support of this community and our dedicated volunteers and are able to help bury many women. And mayor kriseman women need to know their bodies better than anyone and don't May collect anything so I really appreciate the opportunity to speak to you and look for our teal goes around the city yard signs there's a lady's fishing tournament to support the foundation's so I hope you all can participate or start a conversation about ovarian cancer. Thank you so much and thank you get to. And bringing it to everyone thank you so much for having me. >> We really appreciate it is that right here they say you are. If we have I see yes great idol. >> Sherry for bringing it. Her story forward we really appreciate it. Thank you. >> Presentation. Hurting and are likely you are. Why Lord for us there. I think it will work out it's about. >> Well, thank you just ran says hit that on the button. Thank you again on the air for bringing that recognition. To a Senate and that's hard to follow when you understand the severity of what the proclamation means and so I really do appreciate that. But in the East. Same thing of wanting to be educated in one e to have new information in 4. Any type of transformation of success. We started the conversation in regards to education of ecosystems. We've had Saint Pete college we've had usf Saint Pete we've Eckerd College and now we want to bring to you know this technical College. Is part of the eco system that we're trying to a brave Fort for the city of Petersburg has to offer our residents are high school graduates different opportunities, educational success and to be able to tie them together currently right now we don't have a system where if the students start Sat. For college in the Bay. They have a change. How can they easily transition to know another one of our universities or colleges here in the city of St. Petersburg seamlessly without going so they're taking steps backwards and one of the goals is to make sure that those that are educated here right a higher chance of wanting to remain here. So not only are we improving our job skills for what we actually adding to the economic sustainability here to say it's interesting because for so I'm going to do a quick bio of our special guest. Or and so I decided to please come and join us and to have this conversation but I want to Miss This investor know what it is who is or in Alabama who was educated Alabama, am who has his master's degree in educational leadership from Nova who has been with Pinellas County schools for 27 years and the last 12 years. If the canal was technical College but it was Pete 8 backing that they began. But now we're down to another state to college. But I wanted to definitely have missed you know we're here because he provides a very very valuable piece of this puzzle a lot of our residents. They want their certifications they want those that came before changing and they do provide a very very very nice double wage. So with that being said if there's anything else that I Miss Miss in Norwood please forgive me but I think your work in the community speaks for yourself. And I'm so glad to have you at the home of a devastating to college and all that you're doing for our students and for our city so with that I introduce a sound and I just say hello, Mr. So best or no. Thank you Councilman. Big Sanders. You are Hillary Clinton. Mayor thank you. You know is that the dinar having an opportunity to speak to you all. We don't ask the little person and I think the last 7 years we and an opportunity to grow we hosted events for the city of Saint Pete. We do what is relevant. But this is an industry we work with you. We bring use that but they never had a chance or Miss About they can't get it ptc my job has always been to have those students is nothing for me to not going to do I'm not going to door to get students. They stand on the streets that was the avenue debt. We took several years ago, and it made a major difference. A major difference. In addition to that I talk with my bosses to market and I said I want to take it further Let's open up the ptc that is technically part to the community. We have posted Chamber of Commerce the band's major event city of Saint Pete we work with June will continue to work with you. What I found out was it a lot of people live in this area had never stepped foot on this campus. We're known as the best kept secret that's not anymore. We don't want to be the secret we want to be a pillar in the community and my job along with others is to get out there. Let's help students has helped up the young and old people on it would jog and I can assure you ptc that is our goal to employ as many people as possible. With that said you know we go to the next slide for spy. We're not think of our mission. I think of I'm saying to me, it means students can learn skills that are relevant to the business industry in Saint Pete. They are recognized nationally the certification. They that students can give me that they're not very nice nationally. So we were out where do it. Stay in Saint Pete, but we're not understand that when they come here, there's a few cases can be no nationally vision community first choice the workplace. Why not this is what we do we're known for training in the workforce. Area and we're kind of like big currently said about chicken just the training right as what we thought was on we make sure that we have the most qualified. It's tucked into that we really want to see who's there you can show them. The best route to go employee. I love history. Originally as you can Located baber Harbor and then 67 move gives I'm college can. 77 currently the bill that we're in now was bill. And 1990 towards St. Petersburg. 2 cars came together it was known as pronounced technical education centers. I want to clear water is directed by Mister Jake, a pro growth and he's doing an excellent job. So what we try to do. We do is see so my slides, I'm a legal concentrate on. Saint Pete. Some of the programs we have like I will make comments on it, we try to do things together and we've made a major make a difference in the communities north to South. And in 2014. And those guys being busy improving name change. So in time now is technical College. Accredited licenses serve certification, that's what we do here students come here and they're able to it's certifications and licenses but with that there. Yeah I learned is that we have to follow it is agencies searched so age is that comes in a credit agents that coming in. And tell us if we're doing things right. What we need to do and they can actually make a difference by saying you not fall in creating new not Hollywood the guideline as to what he needs programs. It called a c o e my fact I have some clear warning. They're going through it next week and there will be 4 days where people will be on campuses when this case because of the m and they made it they're going to do it virtual. But they go through every program every program must meet the standards to remain. Created only campus. And then is it just works with improving education. And commissioner international trip and region of radiation. And most individually critic. Credit. If approved by progress agency next. Officer vacations at different levels. Licenses we all we all fly says in some of our programs and our faculty I brag all the time or not that we have some staff you who's been here over 30 years. It's dedicated they want to be here. It added the massacre at Glassman of the year project. Ultimately structure of the new models we have in person online and have it. In set down. We never really stop we will open but we had a guy lands. Anyone want to volunteer income or in some students what to do the last is hard to do that. At home, so if they volunteered and Maya he just want to be there which they were. Became a campus. So we May be the key ptc going entire time. Forward to isn't it fees will talk about that more and how we in demand careers and I would listen to. Is talking with Saint Pete College and I agree with her 1000 said that we don't need offing classes. It's not going to pay a nice weight and that. Program that they're not heard that that's the fees to purpose so we're going to jump on the same bag. Bay away with that and try to is it something that is needed that is warning that the industry and businesses say hey can you do this can you train is a student can you train coming Now site all to help out. I was student body. As you can see these 3800 todo students 7,000 that includes. Ab e g e d students that out away from home. As you we have to represent with it. He saw students have 2000 average age of a student here is 26 and start by the 30 day average age of us student hears 26 years ago we haven't from 16 we've had Plus that would put its heels to the state championship. So we have people you. They come here they they want to do it just for a hobby May want to do it too. It more pay. We we try to cater to all the needs and that's what I'm trying to do surveys. See what I need our communities for what would you like us to do. If everyone active and employed. As Jen there you see the female. We have 1500 and the mail over 2000. And this today as you can see it where around it we're around in a week aid to all. Nasa now these and now we get quite a few lately we've been it different nationalities that are coming through trying to get that certification. So they can get employer. Educational attainment as you can see we have because grass that come comes here because they May want to do something different they decided they want to do something different their life or it stands of the things that they're doing. The gte pro we off the tv program ever largest the program in the state of Florida. We have says we're asking the plumber, 51% of the students as the phones. We have seen is of coming off the speed that comes in steady for the g d we have well if I Tue. And it was sit with them make sure they can advance because if you come here and take a trade. Let's you and 9th grade level you won't get the certification. So we try to work with his students. Student performance. Is a certification zone 400 licensure rate. This piece by 98% of our students has last issue. 90% that's and a lot so out it's tough to really work with them. Graduation rate 83%. It could be high, but you know I know why these students come here. It come here to get a job. It many times once they go. They go through like people might to the course in it they can into them. It's hard to tell them not to take that job. It's not the time we have employees businesses come here. Now we're taking we're training from here or you know it's in a lot of us do is take it. We work and where they still take come back here to get those certifications in order for them to advance so it's been working both ways. Pretty soon as we have for us and for students at the end of here's your program and that is a strong program any time you get a sense give them a different level it really at the learning and early money at the same time. Missed that mark Hurd the first one and deliver tasking and ptc we actually have do the roll students at their campus now. Mister Market is that the record was able to meet with the administrative staff to make this happen so that doubled or tripled our numbers is for students in Durham. And that it has made a major difference. We have a okay collision agreements and how would the has to they could get credits. And a blast in 19 ptc program we have 19 many of the students and asking can actually participating. And as a kind of wine has to cruise. As we could actually goes in every has to in Pinellas County recruiting students because I would never tell us to the not to go to a four-year universe, their choice. But we want to do is give them options. We've had to use they want to come here. Get his certification. So when they go off to college. You're able to pay pay and they don't have to start at minimum wage. So the fact is that we try to do get a lot of things he went out to a four-year College and they come here. So it does it does work and we just try to be if physicians that we can help them out a way they choose. And now we have national signing day. Well asking students in actually sign it comes at a campus North. Our South. Cte close to visit and that that is a big thing for us. Next. Program advisory committee is what we mean by that every program that we had I've got to have committee members. Has the knowledge and understanding what is needed at the end of the community in or has to bring a successful program we need to know what is to come in where any what she would be doing to make it better for these teams to get employed. So all these committees is that relative to the program today Tues and of course you can see the pretty ships in internships that we have here and like I say all of them are doing quite well. Workforce development officer workforce, innovation. And 6 years ago Mister Came in and said you know we we were do something different. And came work with officer workforce, innovation and that is it black ice around the sun. And has made a major difference adding the community and that job is really to go out. Every crew. The crew students recruit businesses and what we do we can do we can train on site on the business side of the train here and we've had sponsored by the city. Saint Pete's everything's her tiny homes that is where we do the work with we work with the families site and they learn have to be able. I was from the bottom up. Over to champ is the young you is it by the city of Saint Pete also sponsored by the city of Saint Pete we work with them doing this summer very strong program. System center. If farm there's Joes guard. Career rocket way says ptc exclusive. Site with that is that I was students. It's an ode to this site it was so jobs throughout the community is tailored to oust students. All the programs that we have jobs that they can go you look at and apply for. To these partnerships but what courses workhorses no that is we have put work Academy in the city. Saint Pete is one of our strongest when this about these when it comes to hiring these students. The students come here to train for about 16 weeks and they're pretty much guaranteed a job. It just like the at their internship and they're learning and once they finish to do everything right, they're given a job achieving finance courses. Well what we're the plants are get a cheaper. Having a site. Now here we have campus. They would have a bank that has to be train. And I'm counting classes. So what they decide to do was that stock train students about creating repaired all the state had about how some things. So it was very educational lasting it's really a out. Recent campus accomplishments. Well campus aced Celia creation. Here in Saint Pete, 18 19. We had the ceo you can get his we have a 3rd we have 31 programs. An a plus meted that there were no findings and no recommendations and that's saying a lot that we're we're doing the right thing with following the guidelines would follow the curriculum. We do everything that when students come here. No matter what age they are I want him to feel confident they have the best it struck their best him in a straight guy was counsel to help them. Would their careers. The other programs as you can see we have on that and it is one of us forces, I'm calling their arts because what I was doing it. We do different things out of community each year. We do a big event sky where are they we have about 2532. There's going to appear in mind that's what acting class. Thanks Dan to do to make up. You hear it is they live or to every year. Support for resident cities resident. We're going to send it with a champion Saint Pete, and I'll tell you why we have gone above and beyond because we we feel the need to to support the event like the covid relief efforts. Right there on weekends is tough given way food we serve over 3,000 families. We're going to Saturday's we have volunteers we have a student and my step is to come out. And as you can see food medical supplies and b we have donated those I can do is you know my student body. You have been bought and in the catch program. Again I like to thank you all for allowing has to pay the things that we're doing here at the Nasdaq College. And Saint Pete thankfully we're we're doing some great things but we know there's room for improvement. I think in the last for 5 years we've made major steps to work with the community cater to the community but I think that they need as relevant to their business. But there's always room to go. And this in to doctor Williams. I agree with her we all can work together to make it a better place and employs some students. I don't like Baton Rouge see students. I mean see potential stings stand on the sidewalk app for them before those type things. Everybody deserves a chance and that's what we believe in and one of the things that kill people give me an opportunity to not let you in row. We will find a way to get to school. You just got want to do that. So This big Sanders it I you do forget about it and I really appreciate that you know my door is always open to work in his in the community btc love the community safety. You all have been good to us like to continue. We're going to do a positive thing throughout the community and again thank you thank all of you. West in all, but you. Thank you Miss Your little going to make it takeover of China that are ongoing herself, but I just wanted to personally thank you. For attending and to give us information I learned something about ptc today in I never wore ptc to be looked at as the educational system of last resort because a lot of for a lot of people that is the first choice to get that that trade because my husband does not have a college degree makes more money than that I do so I do appreciate the opportunities that do appreciate the fact we have these resources here because we would love to see everyone employed more important to me to love what they do. And so you know we have a lot of people that get those four-year college degrees and can find a job what but I d and in student loans and then end up doing something else that they love to do anyway. So our open up for questions but again I just wanted to personally thank you everything you do thank you for all the opportunities that ptc provides to our community to provide to everyone to actually make that living in to make our city such a wonderful place in the land of opportunity. Thank you so much Mister Know what I appreciate that. Thank you. >> Her and her. Joining us today for the excellent presentation. Yes for a better eye again. Thank you thank you for everything you. I'm a huge In many ways that people can. Syria career path. It rained for in jobs that pay real money I get people I have to think that Chad you. Tv with dad. Now it's time to go. Here I thank you so much for everything you need it for. >> Thank you all for having me. Thank you. >> We are today. We will go ahead and bought a few hours. Which is needed inside them. We have. And today. >> Sure thank you you And opens for an earlier today. But this is a resolution before you opposing hud's proposed rule related to and mission in placement of the terminations based on a biological facilities have funding from the community planning and development housing programs. The Pinellas continuum of care bill word. Though did to oppose this proposal proposed rule change on Aug. 7th. But with all the decisions the more that can be added to the better. And so I'm asking that you consider not only a passing this resolution today but also adding your personal the ways to. Information as well and I would move approval. >> And to prove the resolution. And the question. >> I'm from the water. >> And it is required for this. I'm sure. I don't see any task that I would the first chance. I see her. >> There are no yeah, I mean you're not enough. >> Our council member. Thank you councilmember Foster for bringing this forward and thank you to the the county. >> Most network for us advocating for this you know trans gender people are probably some of the most misunderstood and. Most discriminated against. People I can think of him we've made a lot of progress with. Education except it's in the last few years but we still you know have a way to go so this is really the right thing to do and thank you for bringing forward and I will be sure to add my letter Islam. Thank you. >> It got a motion that yeah. Motion passes with black man in Mount airy absent. >> Carol go ahead and they have which is also mine. F 2 is a change to our Council policy and procedures manual. >> I actually filed a new business item on this in about 38. I believe. Ended up being removed from the agenda because the administration agreed to make this happen. And based on a conversation with deputy mayor in Mister Green they support bringing this forward at this time. So I I just want to kind of mentioned I don't ever think anything is enough or intentional but different departments have different policies and procedures as it relates to backup materials. You May remember just a couple weeks ago past the redevelopment agreement as it related to the old police station. Moments before we pass that you received a 96 page agreement that we had never seen previously. And I just don't think that's a good way for the city to do business. It's happened with commerce Park and a couple of other places as well and I know that's not the administration's intent intent. Again I think it's different departments have different procedures and said this would help clear that up for future bodies. So that you know what you're voting one. Whenever it comes before you so I would news approval all second. >> I think that there. That happened with Blackman much Gary being asked. >> And he has the community redevelop. I feel great too.

And the photographs on the right-hand side of the image is if you further along the alley toward history. The area to be vacated is on the right side. So in terms of the drc hearing outcome.

Continuing to work that out with the Duke is a condition recommend a condition of approval. Organizations and associations within 300 feet we had no comment from the drc a central at Council cooler or Franco next slide please. So at the deer see hearing it so there were several public comments and I I know this line has a lot of words but I wanted to get everything down. As written in the brief. So their words. There are owners of residential condos located at 4, 6, 5, Central Avenue who represented by counsel. And their concerns dealt with. They're each the ac air intake is currently facing the Aliso they're concerned about exhaust fumes from the garage and air quality in the alley. As well as they have windows that face the Aliso view. Facing they're concerned about their levels of a parking garage outside their windows. Bob soaring with the red Apple group which is the owner of 4, 4, 9, central and of who supported these concerns and was sympathetic to those property owners. And then the applicant took a lot of time responding to these concerns indicated their willingness to mitigate air quality and visual impacts caused by this project to the extent feasible. And the drc discuss the matter in great detail after them. They had no objection to the vacation of the error rates. But they discuss the matters related to site plan review in the building code at links and ultimately they decided that the matters worse a plan related. Our regulated by the land development code in the building code in could be handled during the site plan review of the application. >> The person core English girl who would be reviewing that's a plan for development of the services. Was at that meeting and heard all those comments. So he is very cognizant of those issues. Which she will take into account during his trip. Leave that is the last slide. So drc recommended approval. I don't know if it made the cut off in time or not that the applicants attorneys on mass Street. Sent us a letter which he had sent to the owners of those condos at 4.65 Central Avenue. Which the letter. Maybe it got circulated to Council if not I can read into the record. The letter requested a meeting with those property owners to discuss the issues for there. And I'm mastery in his email it to us indicated that those owners did not respond to that better. But he wanted that information. Conveyed to Council. So that's the end of my presentation if you have any questions. >> The issue the storm has passed.

I'm Gary Jones with the city's economic and workforce development Department. This item before you is a development agreement between the city and tellepsen on and Realty and their subsidiaries Skyler Marina llc next. To kind of give you a little bit of background of how we got here. It was determined that there was a need for more retail restaurants residents, tourists unemployment. And with the City Council adopted the Skyway Marina district plan in May of 34. And out of that plan was a recommendation for a 1 million incentive for the first. Multi-use project within the Skyway Marina district. This was like that that we would need a project of 4 catalysts of other projects within the district. There had been very little investment and within this area over the past few decades. Next. City Council approved an agreement in April of 37 we had a 3 year. Expiration date on it so this agreement expired in April of 2020. A city has budgeted in appropriated 1 million for projects in the prior agreement and the city has not expanded any money out of these budgets where this appropriation next. So we're here today to amend and restate the development agreement with Scalia Marina llc. The developer is under construction with the project. The self storage has been completed and the apartments are under construction. And we also need to do some minor amendments to reflect the current conditions. Next. The subjects site is to the east of Syrian to the south of the all the shopping center and to the north of St. Petersburg College in France, I 2.75. It's approximately a 9 acre parcel it was vacant for several years. Next. These are photos from August. So about a month ago to show you the progress of the apartments that are under construction next. The parking deck is located adjacent to I 2.75 and you can see the self storage is completed. On left of your screen top left next. >> And this is a mural that was painted on the queue, smart self storage the ranch. I 2.75. Next. So the request of the development agreement is. The minimum development is agreed upon is 4500 square feet of a restaurant. 3500 square feet of up restaurant retail or commercial. These are men among as they can do more. They're currently under construction with 296 multifamily units. They have completed 100,000 square feet of self storage. The site plan was approved in January of 37 and has pretty much remained the same with the self storage in the parking garage fronting I 2.75 the apartments. In the middle and the retail will be on the frontage of 34 Street self next. So this agreement extends the agreement until September of 2023. Where we had a very ambitious timeline we wanted to see progress made on the site we feel we have other little upper will receive a maximum of 1 million for public improvements in this is no change from the original agreement. The public improvements on 32th Avenue South will be undertaken by the developer but will not be reimbursed by the city Intel, the retail is under a vertical construction on 34th Street. The change from the last agreement the city and f dot will manage the intersection improvements at 30th and 34th Street South. And this will improve this will. Cnn or section upgraded with the signalized intersection the developer did a lot of work to get the plans for this in Ridgely we had the developer doing this work. However, we feel that it's in the best interest of everyone. It chat to enter into an agreement with f dot to be a son. Evan worry, we'll get into this morning. He is item his companion item after this item if it's approved. The city will only reimburse for art. We did have that we would reimburse for Skyway Marina signage we took that out. And the project as I said earlier the budget appropriations are still intact. Although many are in the accounts had to fund this agreement. Next. So just to go over the city obligations. We have 4 items the first being city trail extension. Our cost is estimated to be $250,000 we will not exceed that next. We're going to extend the trial from the current Skyway trail just on 37th Street just north of Walmart it's got to wrap around this already in complex go through the improved intersection that 30th and 34th Street South over to the subject site so that gives access to the apartments to this trail, a safe access next. The intersection and improvements at 34 Street and 30th Avenue. Well include traffic signal mast arms crosswalk sidewalk improvements. We have a maximum. Exposure for the city of $400,000 next. This is that intersection it will be improved. It's adjacent to a lot of major use is already in the all the shopping center and the subject site. So it's something that is necessary. Next. The 32th Avenue South improvements are the only item that will be undertaken by the developer. The city will have a maximum of $250,000 exposure. There currently are 4 lanes of traffic in the median it's kind of over engineer and for this area. The developer would like to pare this down to 2 ce 2 lanes of traffic in angle parking this is would be all public improvements. The parking would be able to be utilized by Saint Pete College in his public parking new sidewalks and lighting will be placed in the area. And the developer will undertake this after the retail is under construction. Next. And finally the last of the allegation is arts Cape. This city in the agreement. Agrees to pay a $100,000 to the developer for arts Cape. Jason to I 2 75 on the buildings and a parking garage next. The storage unit in the red on the bottom next time Interstate 9075 has already had the mural painted and that is a reimbursable item under this agreement and the parking garage will have art placed on the parking garage deaths. They can be seen from I 2.75. Be something that will be beautified the area. Next. And just to let you know >> the cpp c. Unanimously recommended approval and found that this is consistent with the comprehensive plan, I'm not going to go over there are 3 land use. Objectives transportation objective but basically this is something that the city wants to see this is the proper areas within an activity center. It's a major road and it's an area that we want to see investment and development such as this. Next. So with that
