[1. ARTS MOMENT - "THE FOLDING CITY" - A PRESENTATION BY CARSON KATRI OF CLARK ADVANCED LEARNING CENTER]
CITY. AND. WE'LL HAVE DR MANISHA BONDS AND HER STUDENT. CARSON KATRI. TO COME AND PRESENT.THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME HERE TODAY. I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU A COUPLE OF THINGS ABOUT WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE TODAY. BEFORE WE GET STARTED. I PRESENT CARSON TO YOU. I AM THE CAREER COORDINATOR AT THE CLERK , ADVANCED LEARNING CENTER AND ALSO ADJUNCT FACULTY MEMBER AT INDIAN RIVER STATE COLLEGE. AS YOU MAY KNOW, CLARK ADVANCED LEARNING CENTERS OF PUBLIC CHARTER HIGH SCHOOL. THAT'S PART OF IRIS. SEE WE'RE LOCATED ON THE CHEST AIN'T CAMPUS ON SALERNO ROAD. WE HAVE ABOUT 250 STUDENTS 10TH THROUGH 12TH GRADE , AND I RUN THE CAREER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR THESE STUDENTS. PART OF THE CAREER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM IS OUR INTERNSHIP PROGRAM THAT THEY COMPLETE DURING THE SENIOR YEAR. THERE ARE TWO COMPONENTS OF THAT INTERNSHIP PROGRAM. THE FIRST IS AN INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE, WHICH IS 60 HOURS. OBSERVATIONAL CAN INVOLVE A PROJECT IF THAT'S APPLICABLE, UM, WITH A BUSINESS PARTNER IN MARTIN COUNTY. SO I WORK WITH THE STUDENTS TO FIND A PLACEMENT FOR THEM. THAT'S AS CLOSELY RELATED AS POSSIBLE TO WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO DO. AND THEN THEY COMPLETE THAT 60 HOUR INTERNSHIP. THEY ALSO ALONG WITH THE INTERNSHIP, TAKE A CLASS WITH ME. IT'S CALLED PERSONAL CREW DEVELOPMENT. IT'S ONE OF THEIR DUAL ENROLLMENT COURSES. IN THAT CLASS. I TAKE THEM THROUGH THE WHOLE CAREER DEVELOPMENT MODEL TO GIVE THEM ALL THE TOOLS THEY NEED FOR LIFE, LONG CAREER DEVELOPMENT AND CAREER PLANNING. SO WE START OUT DOING SOME SELF ASSESSMENT, LOOKING AT INTERESTS AND SKILLS AND PERSONALITY AND WORK VALUES AND HOW THOSE RELATE TO CHOOSING A CAREER. THEN WE START DOING CAREER RESEARCH TO GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO A DEEP DIVE INTO A CAREER OF INTEREST TO THEM, USUALLY TO KIND OF GO ALONG WITH THEIR INTERNSHIP, BUT SOMETIMES THEY DO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS. THEN WE GO THROUGH THINGS TO HELP THEM BE SUCCESSFUL PROFESSIONAL DOWN THE ROAD, SO WE TALKED ABOUT BUSINESS ETIQUETTE. INTERVIEWING RESUME COVER LETTER WRITING. WE TALK IN DEPTH ABOUT LINKEDIN PROFILE DESIGN BECAUSE THAT'S SO IMPORTANT THESE DAYS. WE ALSO TALK ABOUT INTERVIEWING. WE HAVE BUSINESS PARTNERS COME IN AND DO MOCK INTERVIEWS WITH THE STUDENTS. WE ALSO HAVE BUSINESS PARTNERS COME IN TO TALK WITH THEM ON A PANEL AND PANEL DISCUSSION TO OFFER ALL THEIR WISDOM AND ADVICE THAT THEY HAVE TO GIVE THEM SO THAT CHORUS CULMINATES IN A CAPSTONE PRESENTATION. SOME OF OUR STUDENTS WITH UNIQUE SITUATIONS HAVE DONE INTERNSHIP PROJECTS IN LIEU OF AN ACTUAL EXPERIENCE, ESPECIALLY OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS WHEN IT'S BEEN KIND OF DIFFICULT TO PLACE INTERNS WITH BUSINESS PARTNERS IN SOME SITUATIONS. SO WHAT YOU GET TO SEE TODAY I'M REALLY EXCITED TO SHARE WITH YOU ONE OF OUR STELLAR PERHAPS DON'T PRESENTATIONS FROM THIS YEAR. WHICH IS ACTUALLY ABOUT AN INTERNSHIP PROJECT. PRETTY AMAZING WHEN I THINK THAT CARSON KATRI DID, AND HE'S HERE TO SHARE THAT WITH YOU, AND SO I'M GOING TO INTRODUCE HIM TO YOU NOW. GOOD AFTERNOON, CARSON. SO THIS IS THE THREE D ART AND THE EFFECTS PRICE. YOU CAN HOLD IT. THERE WE GO. IS THAT BETTER? THAT'S I CAN HEAR. SO HERE IS THIS WAS THE THREE D R AND B EFFECTS PROJECT I DID IN STUART.
SO LIKE DR BOND SAID, I DID THIS FOR MY CAPSTONE PRESENTATION. AND, UM I WAS INTERESTED IN THREE D, R AND B EFFECTS, SO I DECIDED TO DO A TO TRY AND RECREATE A FAMOUS VISUAL EFFECTS SHOT FROM A MOVIE. SO I DECIDED TO DO THIS SCENE FROM THE MOVIE INCEPTION. WHERE THE CITY UM STREET IN PARIS FOLDS IN HALF. BUT I WANTED TO PUT A TWIST ON IT, SO I DECIDED TO MAKE IT DOWNTOWN STUART THAT FOLDS. HMM. MAN. HERE'S MY VIDEO. YEAH. YEAH. ABOUT. SO I STARTED WITH.
[00:05:34]
AH, JUST DO LIKE A QUICK BREAKDOWN OF HOW I MADE THIS FOR THE PROJECT. SO I STARTED WITH PRE VISUALIZATION, WHICH IS LIKE A STORY BOARDING FOR VFX. AND IT LET ME FIGURE OUT IF I'D BE ABLE TO DO THIS IN THE TIME CONSTRAINTS OF THE PROJECT. AND UM, LET ME BREAK DOWN THE MOTION TO FIGURE OUT HOW I WOULD DO THE FOLDING. SO I NOTICED TWO MOTIONS IN THE ORIGINAL. THE FIRST ONE WAS LIKE A BOOK HINGING MOTION WHERE THE BACK PART FOLDS OVER TO THE FRONT PART. AND THE SECOND WAS LIKE IT BENDS AND THEN FLATTENS OUT ONCE IT REACHES THE TOP. SO I COMBINED THOSE TWO AND MADE A QUICK TEST AND THEN I FIGURED THAT I COULD DO IT IN THE TIME.SO THEN I WANTED TO FIGURE OUT HOW I COULD MAKE THE CITY HAVE ALL THE BUILDINGS AND EVERYTHING THAT LOOKS SOMEWHAT REALISTIC. SO I LOOKED AT HOW THEY DID IT IN THE ORIGINAL, AND I FOUND AN INTERVIEW WHERE THEY SAID THAT THEIR TEAM WENT TO PARIS AND TOOK AROUND 250,000 PHOTOS.
SCANNING THE STREET WITH THE LIDAR SCANNER. SO I THOUGHT THAT SOUNDED LIKE A COMBINATION OF TWO METHODS LIKE PHOTOGRAPH A TREE AND LIDAR. UM AND I WANTED TO TRY DOING IT THE SAME WAY SO BASICALLY HOW IT WORKS IS YOU GIVE A COMPUTER HUNDREDS OR THOUSANDS OF PHOTOS AND THEN IT CREATES A THREE D MODEL OF WHATEVER YOU TOOK THE IMAGES OF SO I TOOK AROUND 2000 PHOTOS OF OSCEOLA STREET. AND THERE'S ME WALKING AROUND. PROBABLY GETTING SOME WEIRD LOOKS, UM THE PICTURES OF YOU. PLEASANT. SO ONCE I HAD THOSE 2000 PHOTOS, I RAN THEM THROUGH AN APP CALLED POLY CAM, WHICH WAS ABLE TO GIVE ME THREE D MODELS OF EVERY BUILDING THAT I SCAN. SO I DON'T KNOW. THERE'S SOMETIMES LIKE HOLES AND ERRORS IN THE SCANS. SO YOU HAVE TO FIX THOSE. ALSO THE SECOND FLOOR IS IN THE ROOFS WEREN'T INCLUDED, BECAUSE I COULDN'T REACH UP AND SKIN THAT STUFF. SO I MANUALLY RECREATED THOSE USUALLY USING A SINGLE PICTURE OF THE BUILDING LIKE THAT ONE. AND I ENDED UP WITH BUILDINGS LIKE THIS FOR EVERY BUILDING THAT I SCANNED. SO INSIDE A BUNCH OF THOSE, I ASSEMBLED THEM INTO A STREET LAYOUT. IT DOESNT PERFECTLY MATCH STEWART, BUT IT'S SHOULD HOPEFULLY CONVEY THE IDEA. AND, UM I ONLY CREATED THE AREAS THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE. AND FOR ANY THREE D STUFF IN THIS PROJECT, I USED A PROGRAM CALLED UNDER WHICH IS GREAT FOR STUDENTS BECAUSE IT'S COMPLETELY FREE AND DONATION BASED. SO ONCE I HAD THIS, THE BUILDINGS AND THE FOLDING WORKING, I NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTING BECAUSE, UM, IF YOU THINK OF LIKE THE BACK PART OF THE CITY, BEING ON TOP OF THE BOTTOM PART WOULD BE COMPLETELY BLACK IN THERE BECAUSE THE SUNLIGHT CAN'T GET SO I LOOKED AT HOW THEY FIXED THAT IN THE ORIGINAL. AND THEY SAID THAT THEY BASICALLY USED FOUR SEPARATE SONS, AND THEY EACH LET IT FROM A DIFFERENT ANGLE. SO I DID SOMETHING SIMILAR. BUT I JUST USED TWO SONS WANT TO LET THE BOTTOM AND WANT TO LIKE THE TOP. AND I LET LIGHT PASS THROUGH THE BOTTOM BECAUSE IT'S NOT REAL. YOU CAN DO THINGS LIKE HAVE MULTIPLE SONS. AND ONCE I HAD THE LIGHTING FIXED, I ADDED STUFF TO MAKE IT FEEL A LITTLE BIT MORE LIVE NOT JUST A BUNCH OF BUILDINGS. I ADDED VEHICLES DRIVING ON THE ROADS, AND I ALSO ADDED SOME PEOPLE WALKING ON THE SIDEWALKS. AND THEN, UM, ONCE YOU GET THE FINAL IMAGE, IT LOOKED A LITTLE BIT DULL AND THERE WAS NO SOUND OR ANYTHING. SO I HAD TO ADD THAT WHICH HELPS MAKE IT FEEL LIKE IT'S ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING. AND THEN I WAS ABLE TO CALL A GREAT IT SO THAT IT WENT FROM SOMETHING MORE DULL TO SOMETHING THAT LOOKED A LITTLE BIT MORE LIKE FLORIDA, HOPEFULLY. SO THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO PRESENT. PERSON, PLEASE. OUT OF.
AND HIS FRIENDS. HIS FRIENDS HELPED HIM OUT. WONDERFUL. CAN WE HAVE HIS FRIENDS COME UP FRIENDS COME ON. YEAH. THANK YOU, EVERYBODY. ALL HIS FRIENDS ARE HERE. YOU SAID. THANK YOU.

THIS CHAPTER THAT WE'RE YOU KNOW, TRYING TO RIGHT, SO HE'S BEEN A HUGE HELP TO ME. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. THANK THANK YOU, MR CANDACE . EXCITED TO HEAR ABOUT SOME OF THE NEW PROJECTS, AND I AM HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT JOE WOULD LIKE FOR RECOMMENDED DOWNTOWN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT GLAD IF THAT'S THE CASE. GUYS ARE WORKING ON SOME CONTRIBUTING FUNDING FOR YEAH. BUT I DON'T THINK IT WILL COVER A PARKING GARAGE. YEAH BUT LIKE. YOU AND YOUR BOARD TO BRAINSTORM ABOUT OTHER IDEAS AS WELL AS YES. WE'VE BEEN MEETING WITH SOME, UM STAKEHOLDERS, UM IN REGARDS TO PARKING AND WORKING, MAYBE WITH THEM. ON POSSIBLE DESIGN OR RECOMMENDATIONS. UM. WE WERE NOT SURE WHAT ARE EXACT ROLE WILL BE IN THAT. UM BUT WE WILL DO OUR VERY BEST TO SERVE. BUT AS FAR AS AN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT BESIDES THE PARKING, UM WE DO HAVE QUITE A FEW IDEAS OF THINGS THAT WE'D LIKE TO SEE. I THINK WE'LL JUST HAVE TO CROSS THAT BRIDGE AND HAVE SOME DISCUSSION.
ONCE WE KNOW HOW MUCH ARE 20% IS UP. PERFECT WELL, BUT WE LOOK FORWARD TO LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU ON THE PARKING ISSUE OVERALL AND THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX AND SHORT TERM SOLUTIONS AND LONG TERM AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING OF ANY OTHER CREATIVE IDEAS. THOUGHTS ABOUT DOWNTOWN. FUND PROJECTS. ABSOLUTELY QUESTION ABOUT PARKING ON THE SUNDAY MORNINGS WITH THE NEW RESTAURANT THAT'S OPEN THERE AND YOUR SPECIALIZED PARK IN ANY DID YOU SEE ANY PARTICULAR CHANGE? OR IS IT JUST I WILL BE VERY DIPLOMATIC AND SAY THAT THERE ARE MANY LOGISTICAL PROBLEMS CHALLENGES. SAFETY CONCERNS AS WELL. UM SO, BUT. WE'RE ADDRESSING THIS AS BEST AS WE CAN FOR WHAT WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR, UM AND CITY MANAGER AND PUBLIC WORKS HAS ALSO BEEN REALLY WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH ME ON TACKLING SOME ISSUES THAT MIGHT COMBAT SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS. UM BUT. I LOVE HAVING THE RESTAURANT. THERE IS SUCH A GREAT ANCHOR FOR OUR DOWNTOWN. THERE'S NO DOUBT UM, BUT WE DO NEED TO WORK TOGETHER ON FINDING A SOLUTION TO MAKE IT BETTER FOR OUR RESIDENTS, NOT FOR ME OR MAIN STREET, BUT FOR OUR RESIDENTS TO BE ABLE TO COME TO THEIR DOWNTOWN AND SUPPORT THESE SMALL BUSINESSES AND ENTREPRENEURS FOR SURE. BU DESIGNATE SPECIAL AREAS FOR THE PEOPLE WHEN THEY COME IN WITH THEIR GOODS. DO THEY UNPACK AND THEY GO PARK SOMEWHERE ELSE OR DO THEY STAY THERE? YES, I AM SO WELL. WE OF THEIR NOSE. UM SO WE'RE WORKING WITH THE CITY MANAGER. WE HAVE WORKED ON A PARKING AREA FOR THE VENDORS, BUT BECAUSE WE'VE DONE SUCH A GREAT JOB AT GROWING THE MARKET , WE'VE OUTGROWN THAT SPACE. SO THE MAJORITY ARE PARKING THEIR BUT THEN WE DO HAVE TO HAVE SOME OVERFLOW INTO THE PUBLIC PARKING, BUT THEY ARE TYPICALLY PRETTY GOOD. UM OF NOT PARKING IN THE MOST ADJACENT SPACES TO THE PARK OR IN FRONT OF THE RESTAURANT. BUT I DO HAVE A GOOD AMOUNT OF ELDERLY VENDORS THAT ARE PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED. UM IN THE PARK AGAIN DOESN'T HAVE YOU KNOW A LOAD IN AND LOAD OUT
[01:10:06]
ZONE, SO WE DO OUR BEST. WE DO OUR BEST FOR SURE. I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO OUTGROW IT. NO, NOBODY WANTS IT.

UM UH , I HEARD ONE VERY GREAT THING IN THE NEWS TODAY. UM THE AFFORDABLE CONNECTIVITY PROGRAM WAS ANNOUNCED AS PART OF THE BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE BILL. UM AND APPARENTLY, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS PUSHING ITS. THEY'RE STILL WORKING ON FINALIZING ALL THE DETAILS, BUT ALL OF THE MAJOR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE 100 MEGABYTE PER SECOND INTERNET SERVICE AT NO MORE THAN $30 A MONTH. TO SOME 48 MILLION INDIVIDUALS.
THERE'S A REALLY GREAT TOOL, THE WEBSITE THEY'VE ALREADY RELEASED, CALLED GET INTERNET DOT GOV, WHICH IF ANYBODY IS INTERESTED IN THIS PROGRAM SHOULD GO TO, AND IT PROVIDES ALL THE DETAILS ON THE INCOME CUT OFF LIMITS FOR THAT SERVICE. UM IT SEEMS TO BE A PROJECT THAT IS A PROGRAM THAT IS BEING KIND OF ADMINISTERED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. AND THE INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO JUST HAVE MAKE SURE STAFF IS AWARE OF IT AS IT BEGINS TO ROLL OUT SO THAT WE CAN MONITOR AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE FOLLOWING THROUGH ON THE LOCAL LEVEL. I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING WE REALLY CAN DO ABOUT IT OTHER THAN JUST HELP SPREAD THE WORD ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA AND MAKE SURE THAT THOSE IN OUR COMMUNITY THAT ARE ENTITLED TO IT ARE INDEED AWARE OF IT AND ARE GETTING IT SO THAT'S IT FOR ME FOR TODAY.
THANK YOU. MR CLARK. OH, THANK YOU. SO, SPEAKING OF INTERNET I KNOW THAT. THIS THERMAL.
WASHINGTON AND GERTRUDE WALLET HAS BEEN WORKING WITH FAMILIES TO DO INTERNET ESSENTIALS. AND THAT TAKES A LOT OF WORK. SO I'M GLAD THAT YOU MENTIONED THAT, BUT I MENTIONED IN MISS WASHINGTON BECAUSE I ATTENDED THEIR ARBOR DAY PLANTING THAT GERTRUDE WALDEN, WHICH IS PART OF THE PLANTING OF TREES IN THE EAST STEWART AREA, AND I THINK THAT THAT WAS A WONDERFUL THING FOR THEM TO HAPPEN THERE, AND I HOPE THAT IT WILL BE SOMETHING FOR THE FUTURE FOR THE CHILDREN.
AND OF COURSE, WE HAD GARDEN WEEK TODAY, SO THAT'S ALL VERY IMPORTANT. THE SECOND THING I'D LIKE TO BRING UP IS THAT I'VE HAD A FEW CALLS FROM PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE EAST STEWART AREAS SPECIALLY ABOUT THE RAILROAD CROSSING AT FLORIDA STREET AND SOME SAFETY MATTER WITH A CURB THAT JUTS OUT.

TO HAVE A DATE CERTAIN WHEN THEY WOULD COME AND MAKE A PRESENTATION TO OUR CITY COMMISSIONER ABOUT THE 60 DECIBEL VERSUS A 65 DECIBEL AND WHETHER THERE WAS ANY FUTURE FOR PERSONS IN THE CITY OF STUART, ESPECIALLY WITHIN THE NOISE CONTOUR LINES TO HAVE ANY TYPE OF MITIGATION OR IF THE IDEA FOR STEWART WAS STILL ONLY BUYOUT. UNLESS WE CHANGE THE.
THE NOISE CONTOUR ADOPTION THROUGH AN ORDINANCE AND I'D LIKE TO HAVE AN UPDATE FOR MORE CITY ATTORNEY AS WELL AS IF OUR CITY MANAGER HAD CONTACTED, UM THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR OR THE ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR, AND IF WE'RE GOING TO HAVE SOMETHING SOON, SO I'M HAVE THAT.

DURING MY COMMENT OR NOT WHENEVER YOU WANT. OKAY, THAT'S ALL I HAVE. THANK YOU. OVER A COUPLE OF COMMENTS. I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH LIEUTENANT COLONEL PAUL KLEE, THE ARMY CORPS.

BUT I KNOW IT WOULD BENEFIT ME AND DOING THE JOB THAT I'M DOING UP HERE ARE ALL OF US AS COMMISSIONERS AND I'M SURE VICE MAYOR MCDONALD COULD ELABORATE ON THAT AS HE HAS GONE THROUGH THE PROGRAM, AND I THINK
[01:20:05]
IT'S AN EXCELLENT PROGRAM AND I WOULD CONTRIBUTE. AT LEAST HALF OF MY OWN PERSONAL FUNDS TO IT, BUT I'D LIKE TO THAT MY OTHER COMMISSION USE SOME OF THE MAYOR FUNDS TO INCREASE MY EDUCATION OF MARTIN COUNTY AS A WHOLE. AND HOPEFULLY IMPROVE THE JOB I'M DOING UP HERE. AND WITH THAT. TO MY COMMENTS. IS THAT A MOTION? UM WE DON'T KNOW THAT WE NEED EMOTIONAL VOTE, BUT I WOULD LIKE SOME FEEDBACK BECAUSE HISTORICALLY HAVE TOLD OTHER COMMISSIONERS THAT THAT'S NOT A AN EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY THAT WE FUND I DON'T KNOW HOW HOW MRS COMMISSIONER MCDONALD'S WAS FUNDED AND I DO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT DOING A LIKE A PERSONAL INVESTMENT AS WELL. UM, SO THE OTHER COMMISSIONERS HAVE ANY COMMENTS ABOUT IT, PLEASE? I THINK I FUNDED MY OWN COMMISSIONER COMPANY, I BELIEVE , FUNDED HIS OWN WHEN HE DID IT, WHILE THE COMMISSIONER I DO BELIEVE THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD FIND ON OUR OWN. BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. COULD YOU EXPLAIN IT TO US? MARTIN COUNTY COUNTY LEADERSHIP PROGRAM. IT'S A GREAT PROGRAM LEADERSHIP. MARTIN COUNTY UM I GUESS IN MY PROGRAM PURVIEW. IT WOULD HAVE X SPEND.YOU KNOW, IMPROVE OUR KNOWLEDGE OF MARTIN COUNTY AND OUR SYSTEMS AS A WHOLE AND HELP DO OUR JOB.
I KNOW WE'VE FUNDED OTHER EDUCATIONAL, UM EVENTS FOR THE CITY AND. WITH WELCOME HOW THE OTHER COMMISSIONERS FEEL ON THIS SUBJECT. I KNOW WE FUND CITY EMPLOYEES FOR DOING IT AS A WHOLE. AND IT WOULD BE ONE THING IF COULD FUND THE THING ENTIRELY MYSELF, BUT A LOT OF IT IS FOR THE JOB WILL BE DOING. AS MAYOR OF THE CITY STORE AS A COMMISSIONER. VESELY I WOULDN'T LOOK FOR FULL FUNDING. HOW MUCH IS IT, 100? I DIDN'T DO IT THE SICK AWAY BECAUSE I COULDN'T AFFORD IT AT THE TIME, BUT I WAS GONNA ASK CITY MANAGER IF, UM IF OTHER THAN JUST SAYING COMING OUT BECAUSE THAT KIND OF LIMITS IT WHEN YOU'RE SAYING YOU'RE TAKING IT OUT OF THE MAYOR'S LIMITED BUDGET, WHICH WE KNOW IS VERY LIMITED. IF THERE IS SOME OTHER POT OR SOME OTHER THING, I KNOW THAT THE ONLY THING WOULD BE YOUR DISCRETIONARY FUNDS. THAT SO THAT IF ANYBODY ELSE WANTED TO EVER DO IT IN THE FUTURE, THEY WOULDN'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE. THE MAYOR OR AS COMMISSION. MCDONALD SAID THAT YOU KNOW, IT COULD BE FROM JUST WE JUST AGREE THAT IF YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT, IT WOULD BE FROM YOUR PERSONAL FUNDS. BUT I SEE YOUR POINT THAT BECAUSE WE DO ALLOW FOR HOW MANY PEOPLE DO WE ALLOW FOREIGN IN STAFF ONCE A YEAR, ONE YEAR JUST 1 $1300 A YEAR. UM SO HOW MUCH IS THE MIRRORS, BUDGET OR LIKE $1,000,000 A YEAR. THE WAY I LOOK AT WE DO DO OTHER EDUCATIONAL EVENTS, AND I WOULD HAVE OCCURRED ALL OF US TO DO THAT WITH THE LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE OR STUFF. I THINK WE SHOULD CERTAINLY HAVE SOME FINANCIAL TEETH IN THE GAME. BUT I WOULD SEE THE BENEFIT OF ALL COMMISSIONERS DOING IT. BUT AGAIN, I HAVEN'T GONE THROUGH THE PROGRAM. UM, I'VE BEEN ENCOURAGED TO BUT YOU KNOW? IT'S A LARGE PART OF MONEY, OF COURSE. COMMISSION MCDONALD. DID GO THROUGH IT AND WOULD BE INTERESTED TO SEE IF HE THINKS THERE'D BE A BENEFIT. DOES IT HELP HIM DO HIS JOB? BETTER OR IT'S A GREAT PROGRAM. IT ACTUALLY, I THINK, HELPED ME MORE IN MY PRIVATE BUSINESS THAN UH, BEING A CITY COMMISSIONER, BUT UM. SO BUT I THINK IT'S A BECAUSE IT COVERS HAS IT. IT'S A ABOUT A 10 MONTH PROGRAM THAT COVERS EVERYTHING FROM, UH ARTS AND ARTS AND CULTURE. EDUCATION ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. THERE IS EVERY MONTH THERE'S A THERE'S A DIFFERENT MODULE. THERE IS A GOVERNMENT MODULE FOR IT. UM AND UNDER SEVERAL PROJECTS THAT NEED TO BE DONE. BUT UM, I THINK THAT THIS IS PROBABLY ONE IS, I THINK, TRADITIONALLY, COMMISSIONERS. HAVE PAID FOR IT THEMSELVES, AND IT'S PROBABLY A DISCUSSION TO HAVE DURING BUDGET TIME. VERSUS NOW. WOULD THINK THAT ALL OF OUR PAST. COMMISSIONERS IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO TAKE THIS AND LEARN THIS TO BE A COMMISSIONER, AND I DON'T I THINK THAT'S VERY I DON'T WANT TO DO. I WANT TO DO
[01:25:02]
IT, THEN DO IT. IT'S NOT. IT'S NOT. IT'S NOT SUGGESTING THAT THE MANDATORY BY THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TO DO IT. YEAH. BECAUSE THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME CONTROVERSY. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A MOTION OF UM, I'VE BEEN A MEMBER OF THE CHAMBERS OFF AND ON FOR YEARS. AND GO TO ALL THE GOVERNMENT MEETINGS. I LOVE THOSE MEETINGS AT NOONTIME EVERY WEDNESDAY LIKE COMMISSIONER SAID. I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE IT SOME THOUGHT. A NURSE. FEW PEOPLE I KNOW. NO I DON'T.EVERYONE THINK ABOUT IT AND TALK TO STAFF WITH THEIR OWN TIME. CONSIDER IT, I GUESS. NO.
[COMMENTS BY CITY MANAGER]
COMMENTS BY CITY MAN. I ONLY HAD A COUPLE BUT NOW I'VE GOT A BUNCH. SO WE'RE TENTATIVELY SCHEDULED FOR THE FIRST MEETING IN JULY FOR THE ANAK PRESENTATION. SO THAT WILL BE MR STOKES AND MR CARVER FROM THE COUNTY. NEVER COME AND DISCUSS THAT. 60 D N L OKAY? YES, SIR.YOU HAVE THAT. COULD YOU PULL UP THE RECORDS FROM WHEN WE LOOKED AT THE 60, D. N L AND THERE WAS A PROPOSED INTER LOCAL AGREEMENT THAT AFTER A YEAR OF WORKING ON AT THE COUNTY AFTER THE COUNTY ASKED US TO BRING THE 60 D N L FORWARD AND A YEAR OF WORKING ON IT, THEY REFUSED TO EVEN CONSIDER IT. REMEMBER THE YEAR THAT, UM 20 NO, THAT WAS BUT IT WAS PROBABLY CLOSER LIKE 2012.
MIKE MICHAEL DURHAM WAS HERE. SO 20. IT WAS BEFORE MORE. MR MARTEL CAME OUT AS ATTORNEY, SO I'M GOING TO SAY IT WAS 2011 2012 OK? TERRY IF YOU KNOW YOU MIGHT SEE YOUR MATERIAL DEAL.
HE'S PROBABLY VERY FAMILIAR WITH IT. WOULD YOU LIKE THAT SENT OUT TO THE COMMISSIONER'S AHEAD OF THE MEETING. YEAH I THINK MAYBE AT LEAST SO WE COULD SEE WHAT WE HAVE DONE BECAUSE WE HAVE DONE A LOT OF WORK ON IT. AND THERE WAS SOME AND I CAN GIVE YOU SOME BACKGROUND. IT'S A IT'S PRETTY COMPLICATED, BUT WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT FUNDS WERE IF WE DID THIS BECAUSE THERE IS POTENTIALLY MAKE IT MORE COSTLY FOR READING FOR RENOVATIONS OF HOMES. IN THE CITY BY OUR RESIDENTS, ESPECIALLY IN THE AREAS WHERE THE HOMESTEAD AT LEAST PROPERTY VALUE SMALLEST PROPERTY VALUE, ADDING TO ANY RENOVATIONS, THEY'D HAVE TO DO NOISE. PROOFING IS PART OF THE CODE. AND THEN AT THE SAME TIME WE WOULD BE LOOKING AT THE COUNTY WAS LOOKING AT THAT ARE NOT DIRECTING FUNDS. EQUITABLY BETWEEN WE WANT TO MAKE SURE FUNDS WERE EQUITABLY DISTRIBUTED BETWEEN RESIDENTS SOUTH OF THE AIRPORT AND NORTH OF THE AIRPORT . THEY NEEDED OUR RESIDENTS TO GET THE GRANT. BUT IF THE MONEY WAS GOING TO BE PRIMARILY SPENT SOUTH OF THE AIRPORT THAT WOULDN'T BE EQUITABLE. AND SO THOSE WERE SOME OF THE MAJOR ISSUES AND ALSO WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THEY PUT IT IN THE AGREEMENT THAT WE DID NOT. THEY DID NOT BUY AND TEAR DOWN ANOTHER STREET OF HOUSES. YEAH WHICH IS ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT THEY ABSOLUTELY WERE TALKING ABOUT. WHEN WE MENTIONED THAT THEY SAID THAT THEY COULDN'T THEY WOULDN'T USE THE NOISE. UM ABATEMENT MONEY FOR SOUNDPROOFING. HOUSES AGREE NOT TO BUY AND TEAR DOWN HOUSES, WHICH WOULD HAVE TAKEN A LOT OF THE MONEY. TWO AND WE WOULD HAVE LOST POTENTIALLY LOST COMMISSIONER CLARK STREET. SO YEAH. AND IF YOU COULD ALSO CHECK OUT ON WITH SOME MORTAL YOU COULD CHECK. I HAVE BEEN ON THE ENACT. PROBABLY LAST YEAR. MAYBE THIS TIME AROUND, BUT I THINK COMMISSIONER CLASS LATE AND WAS BEFORE ME AND I'M NOT. I'M NOT SURE WHO WAS WHO ELSE WAS BEFORE ME BEFORE YOU WERE YOU WERE ALSO AFTER HER. MAYBE DID I TAKE IT ON THAT I DON'T WANT TO KNOW IF AFTER IF DURING THAT TIME IF THERE WAS ANYTHING PROPOSED FROM THE ENACT THAT MAYBE WE DIDN'T FOLLOW UP OR THEY DIDN'T FOLLOW UP. WHATEVER. JUST CHECK INTO THE HISTORY OF THAT, BECAUSE I NEED TO I WANT TO KNOW IF THERE WAS SOMETHING THAT WE WERE MISSING. DURING THAT TIME PERIOD. BECAUSE NOW THEY'RE RECEIVING THE FUNDS AND THE FUNDS WILL BE REHABBING HOUSES AT THE END OF THE RUNWAY OVERRUN ST LUCIE BOULEVARD. ANDT THE ADOPTION BETWEEN THE 60 D, D , N L AND THE 65 STANDARD. UM, AS FAR AS THE RAILROAD CROSSING SITUATION THAT FLORIDA STREET MR LEGGETT HAS ALREADY REACHED OUT TO THE RAIL AND IS GOING TO HAVE A MEETING ON SITE WITH THEM ABOUT THAT CONCRETE PIECE STICKING OUT. STATION THREE UPDATE IS THE SITE PLAN IS COMPLETE IN EVERY TIME I SEE MR CAPRA. I ALWAYS POKE HIM FOR WHERE'S MY FIRE STATION?

THE APPLICANT HAS ADDRESSED THIS BY PROVIDING ALL RUNOFF STORED ON SITE AND INFILTRATED BACK INTO THE GROUNDWATER TABLE. SO NO DISCHARGES PROPOSED WITH THIS PROJECT AT ALL. ALSO THE APPLICANT HAS PROPOSED LANDSCAPING AND THE RETENTION AREAS SPECIFICALLY SOUTHERN LIVE OAKS AND BALD CYPRESS TREES, ALONG WITH LOW LEVEL LANDSCAPING TO AID IN THE FILTRATION OF THE WATER PRIOR TO, UM INFILTRATING INTO THE GROUNDWATER TABLE. THE APPLICANT HAS REQUESTED THREE WAIVERS AND ASSOCIATED IN ASSOCIATION WITH THIS PROJECT. THE FIRST WAIVER IS THERE'S A 30 FT SIDE YARD SETBACK ONLY REQUIRED WHERE THE THREE STORY BUILDING IS PROPOSED. THE APPLICANT HAS PROVIDED A TOTAL OF 20. FEET IN THE SIDE, STEP BACK AND NINE. FT IS THE WAIVER REQUESTED. THE SECOND IS THE REQUIREMENT IS TO PROVIDE 23 PARKING SPACES ON THE SITE. THE APPLICANT HAS PROPOSED 21 PARKING SPACES, SO THEY'RE REQUESTING WAIVER OF TWO PARKING SPACES. AND UM, THE CITY CODE REQUIRES EIGHT FT WIDE SIDEWALKS . THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A SIX FT WIDE SIDEWALK INTERNAL TO THE SITE, SO THEY'VE REQUESTED A WAIVER OF TWO FT. HERE YOU CAN SEE A CROSS SECTION OF THE EAST SIDE OF THE BUILDING WHERE THE NON RESIDENTIAL USE SIDE YARD SETBACK WAIVERS BEING REQUESTED . THE APPLICANT HAS JUSTIFIED THIS WAIVER WITH ADDITIONAL PLANTINGS WITHIN THE UM, THE BUFFER TO MITIGATE FOR THE DECREASE IN NINE FT FROM THE SIDE YARD SETBACK. THE SECOND WAIVER IS FOR THE ELIMINATION OF TWO PARKING SPACES THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED BY STRAIGHT CODE. UM THE APPLICANT HAS PROVIDED ALMOST THE TOTAL NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES ALONG THE THREE STORY BUILDING. IT'S ANTICIPATED THAT PEOPLE USING THE ONE STORY STRUCTURES WILL BE PARKING OUTSIDE OF OUTSIDE OF THOSE INDIVIDUAL STORAGE SPACES. SO UM , STAFF FELT COMFORTABLE IN RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF THIS WAIVER. AND THEN FURTHERMORE, UH , YOU CAN SEE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED HERE THAT THE APPLICANT HAS PROPOSED A SIX FT. SIDEWALK ALONG THE WEST ELEVATION OF THE BUILDING, BUT HAS PROVIDED 15 FT OF FOUNDATION PLANTING. SO THERE IS A BIT OF A TRADE OFF THERE.
YOU COULD GET. LESS FOUNDATION PLANTING AND AN EXTRA TWO FT OF SIDEWALK AND IT IS INTERNAL TO THE SITE. SO UM, WE JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THAT AS WELL. AND STAFF DOES RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF ORDINANCE 2482. 2022 CONDITION TO THE USE OF STEALTH STORAGE AS PROVIDING THE ATTACHED PLANS AND SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. SAFE PORT WITH STEPPED FORTH WITHIN THE ORDINANCE.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU, ERIN. DO WE HAVE A PRESENTATION BY THE APPLICANT? HONORABLE MAYOR MATHESON, VICE MAYOR AND BOARD MEMBERS STAFF HAVE BEEN DOING WELL, MY NAME IS MORRIS CRAZY.
I'M A SENIOR PARTNER WITH ACETONE ASSOCIATES HAVE BEEN DOING LAMB PANNING IN MARTIN COUNTY FOR ABOUT 40 YEARS. I THINK THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND OR THIRD TIME I'VE BEEN BEFORE THE CITY COMMISSION. UNFORTUNATELY IN HERE TODAY, STEPPING IN THE PITS WATERS SEAT HE'S BEEN DOING MOST OF THE WORK ON THIS PROJECT, AND HE'S IN IN GAINESVILLE RIGHT NOW IN THE GORDIAN CANCER TREATMENT, SO I WOULD APPRECIATE YOU TO KEEP THEM IN YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. UM AND I WILL GO THROUGH THIS. I THINK STAFF DID A WONDERFUL JOB OF PROVIDING THE
[02:00:03]
DETAIL, BUT AND I APOLOGIZE FOR MY LACK OF POWER POINT SKILLS, BUT I DO THINK A PICTURE IS WORTH 1000 WORDS. SO LET ME LET ME JUST GO THROUGH MY POWER POINT BRIEFLY, AND IT'S THE GREEN BAY. THIS IS A POINTER. OKAY? YEAH, YOU GOT IT. THAT'S THE POINT. ALRIGHT WELL, I WANTED TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIGGER CONTEXT HERE WHERE THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED. UH, AND THIS THIS PROPERTY TO THE EAST OF US HERE IS A MEDICAL OFFICES. THAT'S A THAT'S SURGERY. DOCTOR THERE AND ALSO ALZHEIMER'S CENTERS ON TO THE EAST OF US, AND THAT'S COASTAL DETOX. IS THAT THE BUILDING IN THE BACK OF US AND THEN TO THE WEST IS THERE'S ANOTHER DENTIST OFFICE HERE IN IN DOCTOR'S OFFICE RIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION AND ALSO THE COUNTY'S FACILITIES HERE, AND I'LL SHOW YOU A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAIL AT THE MOMENT. UM THIS IS THEIR BUILDING DEPARTMENT AND THIS IS THE TAX COLLECTOR'S OFFICE SO WE CAN SEE WE HAVE NO RESIDENTIAL AROUND US TO THE NEAREST RESIDENTIAL. IS LOCATED ACROSS INDIAN STREET. AND JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE DISTANCE. THERE'S 100 FT. OF RIGHT OF WAY. UM, OOPS. I HIT THE ROAD, OKAY? THERE'S 100 FT OF RIGHT AWAY ALONG INDIAN STREET. AND THEN THERE'S A AN EIGHT FT WALL. ALONG THE BUFFER OF WILL IT BE AND THEN ANOTHER MINIMUM 50 FT BUFFER. AND THEN THERE'S ANOTHER 50 FT OF RIGHT OF WAY ALONG THEIR PRIVATE ROADWAYS. SO THERE'S 200 FT BETWEEN US AND THE HOMES AND WILLOUGHBY AND WE'RE ALSO PUTTING IN A 30 FT BUFFER THERE. SO THIS HERE IS AN RETENTION AREA THAT SERVICES THIS PROJECT SO THAT WILL CONTINUE TO BE OPEN SPACE. THERE IS SOME LANDSCAPING IN THAT AREA AS WELL. THERE HAVE A SIGN OUT HERE IN FRONT. SO OUR OUR EXCESS IS GOING TO BE RIGHT IN THIS LOCATION. THIS GIVES YOU A LITTLE DIFFERENT CONTEXT AGAIN. THE DOCTOR'S OFFICES AND WHAT'S INTERESTING HERE? THIS IS THE BACK OF THAT BUILDING. THEY HAVE OKAY, THEY HAVE ACTUALLY.THREE FRONTS. HERE AND HERE AND HERE. SO THIS IS THE BACK OF THE BUILDING AND I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE IN A MOMENT, BUT THAT'S THE THAT'S THE SIDE THAT WERE REQUESTING THE VARIANTS.
AGAIN THAT'S AGAINST SHOWS YOU THE RELATIONSHIP TO THE COUNTY BUILDING DEPARTMENT. THIS IS A PEDESTRIAN PATH THE COUNTY CONSTRUCTED TO GET TO THE TAX COLLECTOR'S OFFICE. AND ALL THIS AND BACK HERE IS GOING TO BE RETAINED AS OPEN SPACE. THIS IS A WETLAND PRESERVE AREA THAN THE COUNTY'S PARCEL. I'M HITTING LIKE NO, I THINK I'M SORRY. I MUST BE HITTING SOMETHING. HELPS ME GET BACK. OKAY YES. SO ALL OF THIS AREA IN THE BACK WILL CONTINUE TO BE OPEN SPACE. WE'RE PUTTING OUR RETENTION AREA BACK THERE. THAT'S GOING TO BE PLANTED WITH NATIVE PLANT MATERIAL, SO ALL OF THIS WILL BE WILL BE CONTINUE TO BE SPACE AND AS MENTIONED, WE ARE DOING 100% RETENTION OF OUR STORM WARS THAT WE ARE ALLEVIATING AN EXISTING DRAINAGE. IT'S JUST A CLOSER VIEW OF OUR SITE. WE DO INCORPORATE A PEDESTRIAN PLAZA IN THIS LOCATION, WHICH WILL SHOW YOU CLOSURE. BUT WHAT I WANTED TO EMPHASIZE HERE IS THAT YOU KNOW WE'RE ADJACENT TO THE ROADWAY. BUT THERE'S A LOT OF WELL, THIS FIRST OF ALL, IS THE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNER TO OUR EAST. THAT'S THEIR 10 FT SETBACK . AND AS I MENTIONED, THAT'S THE BACK OF THEIR OF THEIR BUILDING AND WE'RE GOING TO BE 20 FT. OFF OF THE PROPERTY LINE, 21. ADJACENT TO THAT BOUNDARY, SO WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE DISTURBING ANYTHING THEY'RE DOING WHAT'S GREAT ABOUT THIS PROJECT IS THAT IT'S IT MEETS ARCHITECTURAL DETAIL ON ALL FOUR SIDES. SO EVERY EVERY SIDE THAT'S VISIBLE FROM A ROADWAY OR FROM ADJACENT PROPERTY. DESIGNED TO BE ENHANCED. THIS IS WHERE THE BUILDING IS GOING AND YOU CAN SEE ACROSS THE STREET. THERE IS THE BUFFER THAT OCCURS WITHIN THE RIGHT OF WAY AND ALSO WITHIN THE BUFFER ADJACENT TO WILLOUGHBY. THAT'S A THAT'S A SOLID LINE. AND YOU KNOW, THE TELEPHONE POLES ARE ABOUT 40 FT. THAT'S A SOLID LINE OF TREES AND PINE TREES ALONG WILL BE OR INDIAN STREET THERE THAT FORMS THEIR BUFFER. AND THE LONG INDIAN STREET. THIS IS RIGHT OUT IN FRONT OF THE PROJECT. THERE'S TWO ROWS OF CREPE MYRTLES.
THERE'S YOUR FOUR OAK TREES FURTHER DOWN THAT WILL BE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING. SO REALLY THE VIEW CORRIDOR OF THIS BUILDING WHEN YOU'RE PASSING BY ON THE STREET IS GOING TO BE LOOKING UNDERNEATH THOSE TREES AND THEN WE'RE PLANNING A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF
[02:05:03]
VEGETATION. ADJACENT TO THE TREES, IN FACT, ARE ARE ARE PALM TREES THAT WE'RE PUTTING IN THEIR 2020? FT OF CLEAR TRUNK SO THEY'RE ACTUALLY ABOUT 30? FT TALL, SO WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE BUILDING, YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A LITTLE BIT OF BUILDING. A LOT OF VEGETATION. THE ONLY REAL CLEAR VIEW WE HAVE IS AND AGAIN. THIS SHOWS THE THEY ARE ARTICULATION OF THE BUILDING.THIS IS THE FRONT. OF THE BUILDING LOOKING ON INDIAN STUDENT YOU CAN SEE IT'S NOT CONTINUOUS FLAT BUILDING WE HAVE . IT RANGES IN SIZE AND ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THREE DIFFERENT STOREFRONTS. UM, THIS IS TO THE WEST LOOKING TOWARDS THE COUNTY FACILITY, AND THIS IS THE PEDESTRIAN PLAZA THAT WE'RE PROPOSING. BUT AS I MENTIONED, EVERY EVERY VIEW OF THIS BUILDING IS ARCHITECTURALLY ENHANCED. IF YOU CAN SEE IT, THEN AND THEY PUT A UNIQUE AND AESTHETICALLY APPEASING. PLEASING. FEATURE ON IT AND THEN OF THE BUILDINGS IN THE BACK.
VIEW FROM FROM THE AT ALL. ONE OF THEIR COMPONENTS, AND I'M GONNA LET THE PRINCIPLES WOULD BE SAFE TO TALK ABOUT THIS. A LITTLE MORE DETAIL IS A WINE CELLAR. THEY HAVE A TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED, HUMIDITY CONTROLLED ROOM. THAT'S THAT'S SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO STORE WINE SO THAT THAT'S THAT'S ONE OF THE UNIQUE FEATURES. BE SAFE STORAGE AND. YOU KNOW, WE REALLY THINK IT WOULD BE PROUD OF THE BUILDING. THIS IS THIS IS REALLY THE ONLY VIEW THAT YOU GET AT THIS BUILDING WILL BE FROM THE INTERSECTION OF WILL IT BE AN INDIAN STREET WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING I SORT OF NORTHEAST TOWARDS THE BUILDING AND YOU CAN SEE THE PEDESTRIAN PLAZA. WE DID ADD A LOT OF ADDITIONAL PLANT MATERIAL THERE, I THINK. IN RESPONSE TO SOME CONCERNS WITH THE L. P A AND SOME COMMISSIONER COMMENTS AND ADDED. WE ALSO ADDED ADDITIONAL VEGETATION IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING. BUT YOU CAN SEE THESE ARE THE OAK TREES THERE ALONG THE ROAD AND THE CREPE MYRTLES. I THINK WE'LL ALL OR DO WELL, TOO. TO GIVE YOU A SNEAK PREVIEWS OF THE BUILDING, BUT THE BUILDING WILL NOT BE JUMPING OUT IN FRONT OF YOU LIKE LIKE THEM. THE ONE RIGHT AND WITH WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT LANCE, WOULD YOU WANT TO SAY OR AL, IF YOU CAN JUST GIVE HIM A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ABOUT YOUR COMPANY AND YOUR OPERATION AND WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH HERE. I THINK THAT WILL GO A LONG WAY. ANSWERING ANY QUESTIONS, AND WE WILL BE GLAD TO THANK YOU, MR CRAIG. GOOD EVENING, MR MAYOR AND COMMISSIONERS ALLAN IT AND PRESIDENT OF THE SAFE WORKING WITH CAROL COMPANIES FOR ABOUT 25 YEARS. CARE COMPANIES WERE PRIVATELY HELD COMPANY. A FAMILY OWNED BUSINESS. WE'VE GOT NUMEROUS DIVISIONS OF DEVELOPMENTS SUCH AS MULTI FAMILY AND SINGLE FAMILY. ISRAEL. YOUR SELF STORAGE. CAR CAVES, PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AND SOME OTHER BUSINESSES AS WELL. WE PRIDE OURSELVES IN BUILDING AND MAINTAINING EIGHT PLUS PRODUCTS AND COMMUNITIES AND DEVELOPMENTS. BEEN WORKING WITH STAFF OR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR NOW. AND WE FEEL LIKE THE PLAN THAT WE'VE GOT IN FRONT OF YOU THIS EVENING. IT IS A WIN WIN SITUATION FOR US AND STEWART AND WE APPRECIATE THEIR TIME AND EFFORTS. FANTASTIC TO WORK. WE'VE GOT ABOUT 25 LOCATIONS IN NORTH CAROLINA, SOUTH CAROLINA.
TEXAS, TENNESSEE. LOOKING LOOKING AT SITES IN FLORIDA. WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO BECOME PART OF THE STUART CITY. LISTENING TO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WAS GOING ON. STEWART TONIGHT SOME OF THE PREVIOUS SPEAKERS SOME FAST, FANTASTIC THINGS GOING ON, AND WE'RE EXCITED TO BECOME A PART OF UM DISLOCATION. WE'RE ESTIMATING SOMEWHERE AND PROBABLY THE 16 TO $18 MILLION INVESTMENT FOR US. WE HAVE ADDED TO TV PARKING PLACES WITH INDICATED AREA PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT. WE'VE GOT LANCE. APPLE BERG HERE. HE'S OUR VICE PRESIDENT. DEVELOPMENT.
STRUCK SHIN WITH BETTER ENGINEER HERE. GOT SOME HANDOUTS HERE. CAN TAKE THEM.
THROUGH THE HANDOUTS YOU'VE GOT JUST TO GO THROUGH IN THE FIRST PAGE IS WHAT YOU SEE THERE. IS
[02:10:01]
AN ACTUAL HANSA RENDERING OF OUR ELEVATIONS THAT WE PUT TOGETHER FOR YOU. THE SECOND PAGES OF LANDSCAPING PLAN THAT MORE SHOWED THAT WAS A COLOR VERSION. THE THIRD PAGES ARE INSIDE OUR LEASING OFFICE. THAT'S AN ACTUAL B B HAVE DESK. YEAH, GETTING THERE. ON THE PAGE BEFORE THAT ONE IS THE BEEHIVE DESK. AS A TERESA FLOOR WITH R B IN IT. IT AS WELL. THE ONE STORAGE IS. 500 TO 1000 SQUARE FEET ON THE FIRST FLOOR OF THE FACILITY IS ACCESS TO THE LEASING OFFICE HAS GOT HOURS. YOU CAN ONLY ACCESS IT DURING THE LEASING OFFICE HOURS. DON'T SERVE ALCOHOL. IT'S JUST FOR STORAGE AND FINE HOBBY. ENTHUSIASTS AND SO FORTH. WOW. FAITH PICTURE IS JUST A TYPICAL PHOTO INSIDE ONE OF OUR FACILITIES WELL LIT. COURSE WE HAVE A MASCOT. B. IS HE IN EVERY YOU KNOW THAT YOU BUILT IT WILL BE AT OUR GRAND OPENING. UM. THAT'S IN ONE OF THE WINE FACILITIES, AND WE'RE PROUD TO GET BACK TO THE COMMUNITY AND FIRST IN THE FIRST FACILITY, WON'T WE OPEN IN EACH COUNTY? STARTED MAKING A DONATION TO THE MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION. TO DATE WE'VE GIVEN OVER ABOUT $50,000 TO THAT ORGANIZATION. WE'RE PROUD OF IT. WE'RE PROUD TO BE A PART OF THAT. SO UM, WITH THAT. GOT OUR TEAM HERE. HERE FOR QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE ANY CLIENT ANSWER. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE PRESENTATIONS. I'D JUST LIKE TO SAY UM. ALL THE PRESENTATIONS WERE VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER, INCLUDING THE CITIES. I'M. VERY EXCITED TO HEAR ABOUT PROPOSAL THAT RETAINS 100% WATER ON SITE. THAT'S SOMETHING WE'VE BEEN PUSHING FOR. FOR A LONG TIME, AND THAT'S FINALLY STARTING TO HAPPEN. AND FOCUSING ON PRESERVING AS MANY TREES ON SITE EVEN IF THEY HAVE TO BE RELOCATED TO DIFFERENT AREAS TO KEEP THEM. AND JUST TO SEE A PROPOSAL OF A STORAGE FACILITY. WE HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT THIS IS A COMMERCIAL PROPERTY AND SOME OF US MAY BE FRUSTRATED THAT THERE ARE A STORAGE FACILITY IS GOING UP ALL OVER THE PLACE. NO THAT CAN BE BUILT BY RIGHT ON COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES. AND EVEN THOUGH THEY DON'T PROVIDE AS MANY JOBS AS SAY, A MARINA MIGHT ELSA DON'T PROVIDE AS MUCH TRAFFIC AS OTHER PLACES THAT WOULD PROVIDE A LOT OF JOBS. SO THERE'S PROS AND CONS OF EACH I'D REALLY LIKE I'M INTERESTED IN THE WIDTH OF THE SIDEWALK ALONG THE FRONTAGE OF US ONE AND WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE THAT COULD BE EIGHT FT. WIDE I'M NOT AS IMPORTANT CONCERNED ABOUT INDIAN STREETS. INDIAN STREET.I'M NOT AS CONCERNED ABOUT THE EIGHT FT WIDE SIDEWALKS PARK CODE THAT WE PUSHED TO GET IN THERE ON INTERNAL SIDEWALKS. BUT IF WE WANT TO GET CARS OFF THE ROAD, ONE OF THE WAYS TO DO THAT IS TO OFFER PEDESTRIANS. SAFE WAYS TO PASS EACH OTHER AS THEY MIGHT BE ON SOME SORT OF MULTI MULTI MODAL MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. BUT I'LL OPEN UP TO QUESTIONS. FOR ANY OF THE PRESENTERS FROM MY FELLOW COMMISSIONERS OR STATEMENTS. I JUST WANT TO SAY ME TALK ABOUT THE PLANS ARE NOT BEING LIKE THE ONE DOWNTOWN. THE PLANS THEY HAD GIVEN US. DIDN'T HAVE RED AND BLACK AND GRAY UNTIL IT WAS BUILT. THE COLORS CHANGED. I REMEMBER SITTING WITH YOU. AND YOU YOU SAID. I SAID, YOU KNOW, I HOPE THAT THE COLORS DON'T CHANGE. UM SO I'M I'M OKAY WITH THIS PROJECT. MR. OH, SORRY. I WAS GOING TO ASK. IF MR FREEMAN COULD TELL US UM, BECAUSE IT WASN'T PART OF THE RECORD THAT THEY SAW IN THE ADDITIONAL ATTACHMENTS. THE ACTUAL MINUTES OF THE L P A. AND WHAT THE LPS VOTE WAS ON THIS PROJECT. IT WAS DESCRIBED IN THE YEAH IT WAS DESCRIBED. BUT I DON'T THINK THE THING WAS ATTACHED. YES FOR THE PUBLIC. OF COURSE. SO UM, IT THE MINUTES WERE NOT ATTACHED. HOWEVER IN US, THE STAFF REPORT THERE WAS A SUMMARY THAT THE L P A DID VOTE TO RECOMMEND AND NIALL OF A VOTE OF 5 TO 1 FOR THREE PARTICULAR REASONS. LET ME JUST. THE REASONS BEING THEY WERE NOT IN FAVOR OF THE REDUCTION IN THE SIDE SETBACK
[02:15:11]
FOR THE THREE STORY BUILDING. THEY WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THE OVERALL SIZE HEIGHTENED MASSING OF THE THREE STORY BUILDING. AND THE USE OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AS A SELF STORAGE FACILITY. OKAY AND JUST FOLLOWING UP ON THAT, SINCE I HAVE THE THING WITH REGARD TO THE COMMERCIAL THAT'S ON THE EAST SIDE OF THAT, AND WHICH HAS A CURRENT 10. FT. UM SET BACK FROM THE CURRENT PROPERTY LINE FROM THE EASTERN PROPER LINE OF THIS PROPERTY. DO YOU REMEMBER THE CONDITIONS WHEN THAT WAS, UH, ADOPTED WHAT? WE'RE RULES AT THE TIME. WELL, THE SETBACK THAT'S APPROPRIATE TO THAT. DEVELOPMENT WAS COULD BE 10 FT BECAUSE IT IS A SINGLE STORY BUILDING. THAT'S RIGHT, AND THAT'S WHAT ADDITIONAL HEIGHT OF THIS BUILDING AND I JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT OUT.AND WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE THE THREE STORY AND THEN WE HAVE THE COMMERCIAL USE. UM I'M GONNA LET MR MEYER GO AND THEN I'LL PROBABLY BRING UP SOMETHING ELSE. UM SO I JUST WANTED TO SPEAK A LITTLE MORE CLEAR ON THE PERVIOUS IMPERVIOUS KNOW THAT IT WAS A REQUIREMENT OF THE ORIGINAL P U D 65% MAX, IMPERVIOUS UM WE HAVE THE TWO RETENTION AREAS THERE, WHICH IN SOME INSTANCES, OUR PONDS ARE NOT CONSIDERED IMPERVIOUS OR ARE NOT CONSIDERED PERVIOUS. BUT THEY'RE NOT AS PART OF THE CALCULATION. ALL WE HAVE HERE IN THE 65% ARE BUILDINGS, PAVEMENTS SIDEWALKS. UM SO IS THESE ARE NOT GOING TO BE. CONSISTENTLY WET PONDS THERE. JUST DRY RETENTION, OKAY? YEAH. NOT FEELING TOO GREAT ABOUT THAT. THE OTHER ISSUE. UM THE OTHER THING I'VE BEEN REALLY JUST TRYING TO ON IS BEEN LOOKING AT OUR DEFINITIONS ARE MORE MODERN DEFINITIONS OF WHAT IT'S ALLOWED IN THE PD FOR BUSINESS OR COMMERCIAL ZONE PROPERTY. UM.
IT'S OBVIOUSLY STAFF'S OPINION THAT MANY WAREHOUSE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ADJACENT COMMERCIAL USES. YOU INTERPRET THAT TO MEAN THAT THE NEIGHBORING PARCELS HAVE COMMERCIAL USES. YES ACTUALLY, WE WE'VE BEEN SPEAKING ABOUT IT AT LENGTH. WE DO FEEL THAT WAY.
WE CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT IT SAID ADJACENT COMMERCIAL IF WE WERE TO WRITE THE CODE TODAY , WE WOULD SAY THAT IF THE INTENTION WAS TO PROVIDE COMMERCIAL WITH SELF STORAGE. IT WOULD SAY SOMETHING LIKE COMMERCIAL WITH ANCILLARY, MANY WAREHOUSE USE, AND SO THE WORD ADJACENT AS OPPOSED TO ANCILLARY AS A PART OF IS WHY WE CONSIDERED ADJACENT COMMERCIAL TO MEAN ADJACENT PARCELS. MY STICKING POINT ON THAT IS CONJUNCTION NOT NECESSARILY JUST ADJACENT. SO I MEAN, I WAS TRYING TO LOOK FOR THE MINUTES OF THE ORDINANCE HEARING, UM, TO SEE WHAT AND MAYBE IT WAS JUST DIFFERENT LANGUAGE BACK THEN, AND WE DID NOT HAVE THE SELF STORAGE MINI STORAGE FACILITY. BOOM LIKE WE'RE HAVING RIGHT NOW. AND SO MAYBE PEOPLE WEREN'T THINKING ABOUT IT, BUT I KEEP STICKING TO WAS WHAT WAS THE POINT OF MANY WAREHOUSE IN CONJUNCTION WITH A COMMERCIAL. PARCEL OF COMMERCIAL PROPERTY. TO ME THAT I'M INTERPRETING THAT AS MEANING THEY WANTED SOME. I MEAN, EVERY OTHER USE IN THERE IS A RETAIL COMMERCIAL HEAVY FOCUS. SO I'M IMAGINING WHAT WAS THERE SUPPOSED TO BE SOME SORT OF RETAIL COMPONENT AND WITHIN IN CONJUNCTION IN THE SAME P U D PARCEL THEY WOULD HAVE THE MINI STORAGE NOT EXCLUSIVELY MINI STORAGE. SO I GUESS I'M THAT'S NOT A QUESTION AS MUCH AS IT IS JUST ME SAYING I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH THAT. UM, BUT OTHERWISE VERY. VALID POINT. COMMISSIONER MEYER VICE MAYOR MCDONALD. SO AS I LOOK AT THIS PROJECT, COUPLE OF QUICK QUESTIONS, COULD YOU REMIND PUT BACK UP ON THE SCREEN. WHAT THE OTHER USES COULD BE WHAT IT COULD BE ENOUGH.
SO WE HAVE RETAIL BUSINESS. PROFESSIONAL BANKS, THEATERS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS, HOTELS, GAS STATION AUTO SALES. UM BARBER, BEAUTY SHOPS, RETAIL WAREHOUSE SALES. NO OUTDOOR STORIES.
EXISTING COMMERCIAL NURSERY. OKAY SO THERE COULD BE NUMEROUS USES THAT HAVE A MUCH INTENSE
[02:20:03]
ER. USE. AND ONE OF THE THINGS I'VE BEEN HEARING FROM FOLKS IS THEY DON'T WANT TO SEE LESS INTENSE USES. AT THE SAME TIME. I ALSO HEARD PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE STORAGE AND PEOPLE. THERE'S PEOPLE THAT DON'T LIKE THE FACT THAT THERE'S SO MUCH STORAGE BUT WE GO THROUGH THESE CYCLES RIGHT NOW. IT'S STORAGE FACILITIES. AH FEW YEARS AGO. IT WAS LF SOON BEFORE THAT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS, BUT EVERY THERE WERE CONSTANTLY GETTING THESE BUSINESS CYCLES THAT THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE DEVELOPING UNDER PROJECT. AND. WHEN I LOOK AT WHAT THEY COULD DO, THEY COULD DO THIS UNDER STREET BY RIGHT ZONING IN A AND BY ADDING TWO SPACES. PUT IT, MAKING THE SIDE WALK EIGHT. FT AND HAVING THE JUST ANOTHER NINE FT OF SETBACK AND ACTUALLY, ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS CHANGE THE THIRD FLOOR THAT PART OF THE THIRD FLOOR BACK IF I CORRECT, I UNDERSTAND THE CODE. WE COULD DO THAT WE COULD NOT DO THIS AND THEY COULD JUST COME IN AND MAKE SOME CHANGES. WE'D HAVE A PROJECT THAT DOESN'T NECESSARILY HAVE THE RELOCATION OF ALL THE TREES DOESN'T HAVE 100% STORE WATER DOESN'T HAVE THE, UH, THE FEATURE ON THE SIDEWALK. WHAT COULD YOU BRING THAT BENEFIT THE PUBLIC? YEAH THE PUBLIC BENEFIT FEATURE ON THE SIDEWALK THERE RIGHT THERE. THE LITTLE HALF MOVED WITH THE SITTING AREA. SO I THINK THAT. IT'S A GOOD PROJECT. I THINK IT'S WELL LANDSCAPED AND AH, I'M GOING TO SUPPORT THE PROJECT, SO THANK YOU. UM HAVING. YOU COMMENTS? I GUESS MY QUESTION, PERHAPS, FOR MR CRAZY WOULD BE. CAN YOU ELABORATE ON THE DISCUSSION FOR THE WIDTH OF THE SIDEWALK ALONG? INDIAN STREET NEAR THAT PUBLIC.BENEFIT FEATURE THE. BENCH EXISTING SIDEWALK EXACTLY AND PUBLIC RIGHT AWAY. EXACTLY AND SO WE, WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH MARTIN COUNTY TO WIDEN IT TO EIGHT FT. BUT I THINK THAT THE FEATURED ALONG THE PEDESTRIAN PLAZA TIES IN WITH THE SIDEWALK . SO THAT YOU KNOW THAT PARTICULAR AREA COULD KIND OF BLEND IN WITH IT, BUT BUT THE REST OF THE SIDEWALK IS WITHIN THE RIGHT OF WAY. TO HAVE TO GET APPROVED THE COUNTY WOODEN SIDEWALKS IN THERE WOULDN'T LET US DO IT FOR JUST A SEGMENT OF IT. YOU KNOW, I'M SURE THEY WOULD. PUSH BACK BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE WOULD HAVE TO BE WITHIN THEIR RIGHT OF WAY. DID YOU? LOBBY THE COUNTY OR JUST NO , I'M PRETTY WELL, I KNOW YOU DO . MAYOR MATHESON WOULD LIKE TO NOTE THAT STUFF DID SPEAK WITH MARTIN COUNTY ABOUT WIDENING THAT TO EIGHT FT, AND THEY DID PUSH BACK. FISHING. AND THE THEY EVEN WITH ALL YOUR HISTORY, WHERE THEY ARE GOING TO MULTIMODAL PAST, BUT THAT WASN'T YOU KNOW THAT THAT STREET WAS REDONE, AND WE ACTUALLY DID THE WORK ON THE LANDSCAPING, YOU KNOW, BEFORE THEY THOUGHT ABOUT MULTIMODAL PATHS. ON JUST CAN CAN MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT THE MARKET AND THE DEMAND BECAUSE ALL OF THESE OTHER USES, YOU KNOW THERE ARE THEY ARE GREATER TRAFFIC GENERATORS. BUT THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT IS THERE REALLY ISN'T A DEMAND FOR THOSE OTHER USES, SO NO ONE'S GOING TO REALLY INVEST IN PROPERTY UNLESS THERE IS A DEMAND AND THERE IS A DEMAND RIGHT NOW FOR STORAGE AND JUST YOU KNOW, WITHOUT LOOKING AT ALL THE OTHER STORAGE CENTER.
THINK ABOUT THE ONES THAT ARE RIGHT IN THIS AREA, WHICH IS NEAR APARTMENTS, WHICH IS NEAR, WILL IT BE, WHICH IS YOU KNOW, WE HAVE ALL THOSE ON THE ALONG WILL BE BOULEVARD. YOU KNOW IF THEY WANT TO DO STORAGE NOW THEY'VE GOT TO GO OUT TO US ONE. SO THIS DOES TEND TO CAPTURE SOME TRIPS BECAUSE THERE IS NO NEARBY STORAGE. IN THIS PARTICULAR NEIGHBORHOOD, SO ONE CONSIDERATION. PLACE MAN AHEAD AND MOVE FOR STAFF APPROVAL. SECOND RECOMMENDATION. APPROVAL.
FIRST OF STAFF RECOMMENDATION. WE HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL BY VICE MAYOR MCDONALD SECOND BY COMMISSIONER BRUNER HAVE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE MOTION. I DO NOT. THEY HAVE, SINCE I DO NOT THE PUBLIC COMMENT. THEM. PLEASE CALL THE ROLL. COMMISSIONER CLARK. YES COMMISSIONER BRUNER. YES MCDONALD. YES, YES, COMMISSIONER MEYER? YES. MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY.

TIME FOR THE BRIEF PAUSE. I AM HERE WITH AN OPEN MIND. I HAVE DISCUSSED SOME OF THE PROJECT WITH THE APPLICANT RESIDENTS AND CITY STAFF. MR. I DON'T KNOW, MR BANKS. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS IMPORTANT OR NOT, AND I DIDN'T SAY IT DURING THE LAST ITEM. BUT BOTH, MR UM CRAZY. AND MR QUASARS. AND I HAD THE PLEASURE OF WORKING TOGETHER . 30 SOMETHING YEARS AGO, PROBABLY. AND I JUST WANTED TO DISCLOSE THAT. IT WON'T STARTED AT THE COUNTY IN THE EIGHTIES. BEFORE WE GO ON. I JUST REMEMBERED UM, ABOUT THE BALD EAGLES. AND THE GIANT NEST. DAVID COULD YOU MENTIONED THAT WITH THE WHAT? ANYTHING THAT'S HAPPENING, OR AND HONEY CREEK. WAS THAT THE HANDY CREEK I WAS PROBABLY PRESUMED BECAUSE JUST BECAUSE THE PROXIMITY OF THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT I'M SORRY , CITIZEN I BELIEVE REACHED OUT TO YOU. WASN'T IT MARY ABOUT SPOTTING SOME BALD EAGLES UP IN THE HANDY CREEK SECTION. UM, MILTON WENT BIRD HUNTING, AND, UH, ACTUALLY FOUND TWO EAGLES OUT THERE WITH A WITH A LARGE NEST. AND WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF CONTACTING. I THINK IT'S A WC WHO MONITORS THAT AND THEY'LL THEY'LL DO A THEY MAP IT AND THEN THEY DO A RESTRICTED ZONE.
I'VE DONE, UM, THE BOUNDARY SETTINGS FOR THAT, AND THERE'S NOTHING THAT THE CITY HAS THAT WOULD BE GOING UNDER CONSTRUCTION WITHIN THAT BOUNDARY ZONE, A LITTLE UNDER 400 FT OF THE BOUNDARY ZONES. I THINK OUR NEAREST THING AS WELL OVER 1200 FT TO THAT SITE, BUT IT'S UM IT'S CLOSE TO, UM SOME THE PINES DEEP INTO THE HANDY CREEK AREA. IT'S SO EXCITING TO HEAR. I MEAN, YOU HEAR ALL KINDS OF THINGS WE'RE KILLING, BUT THIS IS REALLY REALLY NICE. SO IT'S. CAN I JUST TOUCH ON THAT? THE RESIDENT CONTACTED ME. I LOOKED INTO IT A LITTLE BIT.
IT'S IF YOU WERE TO ENTER THE HANEY CREEK DOG PARK. IT WOULD BE 10 15 MINUTE WALK TO BE ABLE TO SEE THEM NORTH. EAST OF THE DOG PARK TOWARDS GREEN RIVER PARKWAY. I HAVE SINCE I DON'T
[02:30:08]
KNOW IF I MENTIONED TO YOU, DAVID SPOKEN WITH AN F WC OFFICER. I SAW MY OTHER WORK.AH! THEY WERE AWARE OF THE NEST IN THAT GENERAL AREA, BUT THAT THEY GO BY KNOWN CONFIRMATIONS, WHICH COULD INCLUDE PHOTOGRAPHS. UM I THINK IT WAS THE LAST CONFIRMATION WAS 2016 SO. YOU KNOW IF I'LL GO SMOOTHLY THAT THIS WILL UPDATE IT TO 2022 CONFIRMATIONAT NESTING PAIR, WHICH IS GREAT NEWS. AGAIN. I DON'T THINK THAT'S CLOSE ENOUGH TO IMPACT. THIS SITE. UM THANK YOU, MAYOR. AND THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT UP. IT IS EXCITING TO KNOW WE HAVE THAT. IN OUR TINY CREEK PRESERVE AREA. HAS BEEN SWORN IN. I WILL YIELD THE FLOOR TO MR FRIEDMAN TO GIVE US A BRIEF SUMMARY. THANK YOU, MAYOR. IT'S GOING TO BE MORE THAN BRIEF, I THINK UM, I'D LIKE TO. YEAH I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE THIS POWER POINT, AS STAFF EXHIBIT TO THIS ITEM. I'M GOING TO RUN THROUGH THE DATA AND ANALYSIS THAT WAS CARRIED OUT ON BEHALF OF THIS FUTURE.
LAND USE CHANGE. I SHOULD REMIND EVERYBODY THAT THIS IS A FUTURE LAND USE CHANGE. IT'S NOT DEALING WITH THE FUTURE SITE PLAN, WHICH IS GOING TO COME BEFORE THE BOARD. I THINK ON MAY THE 23RD 26. UM SO AS WE'VE HEARD, THIS IS A SMALL SCALE FUTURE LAND USE MAPS AMENDMENT.
THE LOCATION OF THE PROPERTY IS EAST OF NORTH DIXIE HIGHWAY, NORTH WEST FLAGLER AVENUE AND THE RAILWAY AND WEST OF ST LUCIE RIVER AND THE ROOSEVELT BRIDGE, WHICH STANDS ABOVE IT. THEY'RE ALL THIS SITE COMPRISES OF 10.81 ACRES. 7.86 ACRES OF THIS BLEND. THE REST IS SUBMERGED LANDS. THE EXISTING FUTURE LAND USE IS INDUSTRIAL AND USE, AND THAT INVOLVES LAND USES AND ACTIVITIES PREDOMINANTLY CONNECTED WITH MANUFACTURING ASSEMBLY PROCESSING PACKAGING.
RESEARCH OR STORAGE OF PRODUCTS. ADDITIONAL PERMITTED USES IN SUCH AREAS INCLUDE WAREHOUSING, WHOLESALING ACTIVITY, MACHINE REPAIR, LIMITED INDOOR RETAIL SALES AND PROFESSIONAL AND OTHER OFFICERS. ALSO PUBLIC FACILITIES AND ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION SUBSTATIONS ARE ALLOWED. THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USES FOR A MARINE INDUSTRIAL LAND USE. IT'S A LAND USE, WHICH IS VERY SPECIFIC TO WATERFRONT AREAS OF THE CITY AND UH, HAVE YOU KNOW THE CITY HAS SUCH AN EXTENSIVE WATERFRONT? IT'S SURPRISING THAT WE DON'T HAVE MORE OF THIS FUTURE LAND USE IN THE CITY. AS IT ACTUALLY PROMOTES THE CONTINUATION OF INDUSTRIAL AND MARINE USES, WHILE ENCOURAGING MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT, INCLUDING MULTI FAMILY RESIDENTIAL COMMERCIAL OFFICE LODGING.
MARINAS AND CIVIC USES ALSO PUBLIC FACILITIES AND ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION SUBSTATIONS ARE ALSO ALLOWED IN THIS. SO WE LOOKED AT THE WHAT IS WITHIN STATE STATUTE, 163.317768. EIGHT IN TERMS OF FUTURE LAND, USE MATH AMENDMENTS AND THIS, UH, GIVE SOME CRITERIA. THAT THE ANALYSIS NEEDS TO BE BASED ON FACILITIES AND SERVICES. THE SUITABILITY OF THE PLAN AMENDMENT FOR HIS PROPOSED USE, AND WE'VE GOT A NUMBER OF ITEMS WE RUN THROUGH WITH THAT.
ANALYSIS OF THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF LAND NEEDED TO ACHIEVE THE GOALS AND REQUIREMENTS OF THIS SECTION. SO THOSE ARE THE ITEMS. I'LL GO THROUGH THEM ONE BY ONE AS WE MOVE FORWARD. TOPOGRAPHY THE SITE WE LOOKED AT THE TOPOGRAPHY SITE USING A SURVEY PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT AND WE CAN SEE THAT THE SITE HAS NOT TO 2% SLOPES. AND FOR THE MOST PART DRAINS DIRECTLY INTO THE ESTUARY IN NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES. WETLANDS WE DID A VIEW OF THE NATIONAL WETLANDS INVENTORY. NO WETLANDS WERE IDENTIFIED THROUGH THAT RESOURCE. WE DID A REVIEW OF STRATEGIC HABITAT CONSERVATION AREAS. THE FLORIDA FISH AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION COMMISSION DATA LAYER AGAIN. NO STRATEGIC HABITAT OR CONSERVATION AREAS WHERE IDENTIFIED. WE INVESTIGATED THE WELL FIELD PROTECTION ZONES OVERLAID THAT ON THE PROPERTIES OUTSIDE CITY AND MARTIN COUNTY,
[02:35:02]
WELL FIELD PROTECTION AREAS. SOILS WE PULLED UP THE FLORIDA SOIL SURVEY GEOGRAPHIC DATABASE THERE TO PARTICULAR SOILS ON THE SITE. URBAN LAND, WHICH IS SOILS IN AREA OF HIGH POPULATION DENSITY AND THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT. SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGED BY HUMAN ACTIVITY AND MAY HAVE IMPERVIOUS SERVICES SUCH AS BUILDINGS AND PAVEMENT. RENTS DO NOT HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC HORIZONS BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN DEEPLY MIXED BY PLOWING, SPEEDING OR OTHER METHODS.METHODS OF MOVING BY HUMANS THAT IS SEVERELY DISTURBED SOILS. WE LOOKED AT THE FLOODPLAIN ANALYSIS USING FEMA'S NATIONAL FLOOD HAZARD LAYER. THERE ARE THREE FLOOD ELEVATIONS THAT ARE THIS SITE IS SUBJECT TO UM. THE FLOODPLAIN IS PRIMARILY THE ESTUARY AND THE SUBMERGED LAND.
UM, THE OTHERS ARE, UH TWO VARIANTS OF THE COASTAL FLOODPLAIN. VARIATION OF A IS AN ANNUAL CHANCE 1% ANNUAL CHANCE OF FLOODING. THE BASEMENT AREA 100 YEAR FLOODPLAIN. VE IS A 1% ANNUAL CHANCE OF EXPERIENCING A FLOOD. FAST MOVING OR STORM INDUCED WAVES OF THREE FT OR HIGHER MAY ACCOMPANY THE BASE FLOOD ELEVATION. PUBLIC SERVICES WE CONNECTED WITH CITY UTILITIES AND ENGINEERING AND THE CITY OF STEWART FIRE RESCUE, BOTH OF WHICH CONFIRMED THAT THE PROPOSED CHANGE IN FUTURE LAND USE BUT NOT SIGNIFICANTLY. DISTURBED THEIR EXISTING LEVELS OF SERVICE. ECONOMIC BENEFIT. WE LOOKED AT THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND STAFF'S OPINION IS THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE CHANGE TO MARINE INDUSTRIAL WILL ENABLE THE SITE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR MARINE RELATED USES OF HIGHER VALUE THAN THOSE ALLOWED WITHIN THE EXISTING INDUSTRIAL FUTURE ENGINES. THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP IS THEREFORE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IN TERMS OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND THE ATTRACTION OF NUCLEAR MISSILES. THE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT ANALYSIS. WE'VE USED THE BASE METHODOLOGY OF USING THE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT ANALYSIS, WHICH FOR BOTH THE EXISTING AND PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE. RELIES A FLOOR AREA RATIO OF THREE THE GROWTH SITE AREAS 10.81 SO IN EFFECT, YOU MULTIPLY THAT. SQUARE KNOT ACREAGE CONVERTED INTO SQUARE FEET AND MULTIPLIED BY THREE. SO THE MAXIMUM BUILD UP FOR INDUSTRIAL EXISTING FUTURE LAND USE IS OVER 1.4 MILLION SQUARE FEET. WITH ZERO RESIDENTIAL UNITS, POTENTIALLY MAXIMUM BUILD UP FROM MARINE INDUSTRY. FUTURE LAND USE. THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE GIVES YOU THE SAME AMOUNT OF NON RESIDENTIAL SQUARE FEET POTENTIAL AT 1.4 MILLION. RESIDENTIAL UNITS. 0 262, BASED ON 15 UNITS PER ACRE BEARING IN MIND. THERE IS A MAXIMUM 25% OF THOSE UNITS AVAILABLE. DEPENDING ON THE FLOOR AREAS TAKEN BY OTHER USES. JUST AS A NOTE THE EXISTING BUILD OUT OF THAT SITE PRIOR TO THE DEMOLITION WORK THAT'S ONGOING. AT THE MOMENT WAS 43. 1004 163 SQUARE FEET, WHICH IS A 1630.9 FLOOR AREA RATIO. WE LOOKED AT FLORIDA STATUTES AND CONSIDERED URBAN SPRAWL. NUMBER OF ITEMS WERE CONSIDERED. ALL BASED ON STATE STATUTE RECOMMENDATIONS. WE FOUND THAT THE PROPERTY DOES NOT CONSTITUTE URBAN SPRAWL AND, IN FACT CONSOLIDATES DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE RATE AND BUILT AREA OF THE CITY OF STEWART. AGAIN HISTORIC RESOURCES. WE LOOKED AT THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES. THE PROPERTY DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES. FUTURE LAND USE ALLOCATION. THIS GIVES THE BREAKDOWN OF THE LAND USES WITHIN THE CITY OF STEWART AND THE ACRES THAT ARE EXISTING IN THE CITY OF STEWART. YOU'LL NOTE THAT WE HAVE A VERY LIMITED AMOUNT OF MARINE INDUSTRIAL UM, SO THE CHANGE FROM INDUSTRIAL FUTURE LEONARD USED TO MARINE INDUSTRIAL IS CONSIDERED TO BE OF BENEFITED AND INCREASES THE SUPPLY OF WARD FRONT LANDS WHICH ARE SUITABLE FOR MARINE USES, WHILE RETAINING THE AVAILABILITY OF THE PROPERTY FOR INDUSTRIAL USE. SO STAFF RECOMMENDATION ON THIS ITEM IS THAT THE PROPOSAL AND USE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
[02:40:03]
EXISTING PATTERN OF DEVELOPMENT. COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING ESTABLISHED MARINE INDUSTRIAL WATERFRONT DISTRICT, LAND USE PATTERNS TO THE NORTH. BASED ON OUR ANALYSIS AND SUBJECT TO THE EVIDENCE TO BE PRESENTED BY THE APPLICANT. THOSE THIRDLY AND IN THERE STUFF. SORRY, AND SOME MITCHELL SUBMITTAL. WE CONFIRM THAT THEIR PROPOSAL IS A COMPLIANCE WITH THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THAT RECOMMENDATION IS TO MOTION THE APPROVAL OF THE CHANGE IN THE FUTURE AND USE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR FREEMAN. DO WE HAVE A PRESENTATION? BY THEIR OWN, MR QUASARS. ON THE FUTURE LAND USE. CHANGE. YES. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS DON QUADS. OH AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN. I'M HERE REPRESENTING THE APPLICANT TONIGHT. JUST TO SHOW YOU HOW OLD YOU'LL MAKES ME FEEL. COMMISSIONER MAYOR MADISON I WAS IN CLASS ONE OF LEADERSHIP. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE NUMBER IS NOW, BUT I WAS IN CLASS. I DON'T KNOW IF I'LL EVER GET TO TAKE ONE RIGHT NOW. I'M REALLY OLD AS DIRT AND I'VE BEEN AROUND HERE A LONG TIME. UM THANK YOU THIS EVENING FOR ALLOWING US TO COME FORWARD HERE. THIS IS A LITTLE UNUSUAL AND NOT THE NORMAL AS IT WAS IN THE PAST, WITH ONLY DOING A LAND USE AMENDMENT. WE'RE NOT HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW YOU THIS EXCITING PROJECT THAT WE'RE PROPOSING, BUT I'M ONLY HERE TO TALK ABOUT LAND USE TONIGHT AS STAFF HAD RECOMMENDED AS SHOWN YOU. THE LOCATION OF THIS IS VERY UNIQUE. UM THIS IS THE OLD SIDE. THAT WAS THERE WAS HIS CURRENTLY UNDER DEMOLITION FROM A DEMOLITION PERMIT THAT WE HAD THOSE OF YOU HAVE BEEN AROUND A LONG TIME. HERE. REMEMBER THIS IS THE EVAN WORD TEST SITE. AND WHEN I WAS HERE IN THE EARLY SEVENTIES, GOING TO COLLEGE, I WANTED TO GO OUT HERE IN THE WORST WAY, AND IT WAS LIKE LOCKDOWN. YOU COULD NOT GET ON THIS SIDE. ALL THOSE YEARS. I KNEW PEOPLE WORKED OUT THERE. I COULDN'T GET ON THERE. BUT IT WAS THE RIGHT ZONING DISTRICT WAS APPLIED AND THE RIGHT LENS YOU SUPPLIED WHEN WE CAME TO LAND USE BECAUSE THIS WAS MORE OF A RESEARCH FACILITY. THEY ACTUALLY MANUFACTURED THINGS THEY TRIED TO BREAK THINGS REALLY IS WHAT THEY WERE DOING IN THERE. IT WAS OUR INDEED. AND AS TIMES CHANGED IN THIS UNFORTUNATE FACT THAT NEVER WOULD. MOTORS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE. UM THIS IS ALSO WE'RE BRINGING IT INTO THE 21ST CENTURY WITH THE REQUEST FOR THIS LAND YEARS. AGAIN. THERE'S A LITTLE CLOSER VIEW OF WHAT WAS THERE. MOST OF THAT IS GONE, EXCEPT FOR ONE BUILDING NORWEGIAN SAVED ON THE SIDE, WHICH IS THE CAUSE ONE. IT IS ALSO UNUSUAL THAT WERE IN THE CRM, BUT ON THE OVERLAY, SO THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THIS INDUSTRIAL ZONING ON THE PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT CAN REMAIN WITH THIS. THIS LAND USE. SO I WAS, I WAS STATED BY STAFF. THE FUTURE LAND USE CURRENTLY IS INDUSTRIAL . THERE'S A COUPLE OF PARCELS TO THE NORTH OF US THAT ARE INDUSTRIAL AGAIN. IF YOU'VE BEEN HERE FOR A LONG TIME, AND ONE WAS LYDIA GODS, AND HOW MANY PEOPLE REMEMBER LYDIA GODS, BUT THEY WERE A BIG HEAD BOAT FISHING COMPANY THAT WAS HERE FOREVER. SO AS I STATED THE LAND USE AND THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY IS REALLY MORE OF TO WHAT WAS GOING ON WHEN MR REVENUE IN BOMBARDIER ACTUALLY HAD THE PROPERTY AND NOW AS WE'RE MOVING FORWARD TO WHAT WE WANT TO DO THE FUTURE LAND USE IS MORE APPROPRIATE TO BURY THIS MARINE INDUSTRIAL LIKE TO TELL YOU ALL THE THINGS THAT WE'RE NOT DOING ON THE PIECE OF PROPERTY, BUT AGAIN, I'M LIMITED TO JUST WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS THE APPROPRIATE LAND USED FOR THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY, AND THAT'S YOUR CHARGE TONIGHT TWOS. TO DETERMINE WHETHER IT'S THE APPROPRIATE LAND USE. THE MARINE WATERFRONT ALLOWS A LITTLE MORE ACTIVITY IN THERE, BUT ONE OF THE IMPORTANT THINGS IS MARINAS. MAKES MARINA AND EXISTING ARE PREPARED AS USED IN THIS THING.UM YOU KNOW, I COULD SAY THAT WE'RE NOT INCLUDING ANY MULTI FAMILY. BUT AGAIN. WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE SITE PLAN. OUR EXISTING ZONING IS INDUSTRIAL STAFF HAS GONE THROUGH ALL OF THE REQUIREMENTS, AND I DIDN'T I FAILED TO STAY AT THE BEGINNING THAT WE'RE IN COMPLETE AGREEMENT WITH THE STAFF'S ANALYSIS ON THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY. AND THAT INDUSTRIAL ZONING IS TO REMAIN YOU'LL SEE US ON THE 23RD. WE WERE VERY FORTUNATE THAT WE HAD A UNANIMOUS RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL FROM THIS CHANGE FROM THE L P A. ON 4 14 OF 2022. SO FROM THAT. I'M GOING RIGHT HERE . SO WE, THE MARINE INDUSTRIAL IS CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF STEWART'S COMPLAINTS, LAND OF AL MUKALLA AND POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. ASKED STAFF TO REVIEW OUR SUBMITTAL, AND THEY HAVE AGREED THAT IT IS RECOMMENDED FOR FINAL FOR RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL ON THIS AGAIN, THE LPGA VOTED. HONESTLY, THERE'S DO THIS, AND WE ARE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTING
[02:45:04]
THAT YOU MAKE THIS APPROVAL. TWO MARINE INDUSTRIAL LAND USE. I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU WANT. AND I'D BE GLAD TO DO THAT. THANK YOU, MR QUASARS. JUST TO REITERATE ONE MORE TIME . THE ITEM AND DECISION BEFORE THE COMMISSION TONIGHT. IS JUST A SMALL SCALE FUTURE LAND NEWS DECISION OF THE ORDINANCE. TO CHANGE THE FUTURE LAND USE FROM THIS PROPERTY FROM INDUSTRIAL TO MARINE INDUSTRIAL. TONIGHT WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE CONSIDERING THE ACTUAL PROPOSAL AND ZONING OF THE PROJECT ON SITE. IT'S JUST FUTURE LAND USE, AND THIS HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT COMMISSIONERS DECIDED TO BREAK APART. THE TWO DECISIONS WHICH WE HAVE DONE. CAN JOINTLY IN THE PAST. WE'RE DOING THIS FOR SIMPLICITY REASONS, EVEN THOUGH IT MAY NOT SEEM SIMPLE. AS WE START DOING SO WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT. NUMBER OF VOTES LIVES, RESIDENTIAL HEIGHT LIMIT OR ANY OF THAT TONIGHT, BUT THAT WILL OCCUR. AND FUTURE DISCUSSION. ON THE 23RD. WE HAVE ANY I HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS, MR MAYOR QUESTIONS UM OKAY, SO I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW, THIS IS WHERE CHANGING OUR PROCESS AND WE'RE GOING THROUGH THE LAND USE ORDINANCES FIRST BEFORE THE PLAN REVIEW BUT IN SOME OF THE ITEMS FROM THE STAFF REPORT THERE OR AT LEAST, YOU KNOW, GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE THE LETTER FROM MR BUNKER CONFIRMING ADEQUATE SERVICE FOR THE PLAN WAS, I ASSUME, IN REFERENCE TO THE PLAN? IF I COULD, IF, SINCE WE'RE JUST LOOKING AT THE LAND USE CHANGE. UM. COULD I ASK MR MR VOLCKER BEFORE BEFORE SECOND READING? I'LL MAKE SURE THAT THE UTILITIES DEPARTMENT VALIDATES THAT WHAT IT REALLY HAS TO BE APPLIED TO THE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT ANALYSIS, RIGHT? THAT'S WHAT I'M THAT'S WHAT I'M AFTER. SO IS IT NOT SUFFICIENT TO JUST ASK YOU YOU'RE WELCOME TO. I JUST DON'T KNOW THAT HE'S PREPARED TO ANSWER THE QUESTION. FOR THE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT ANALYSIS APPLYING THIS LAND USE KNOWING THAT THEY'RE GOING TO COME FORWARD WITH A PLAN THAT WE'VE SEEN. OKAY SO I'LL JUST WAIT FOR THE SECOND ORDINANCE TO GET THAT INFORMATION, OKAY? UM AND THEN THE LEVEL OF SERVICE IN THE TRAFFIC REPORT POINTS TO THE MARTIN COUNTY 2019 ROADWAY. INVENTORY REPORT AND, UM IS IT FERN STREET? IT'S FIRM THAT RUNS ALONG THAT, ISN'T IT? IT'S FLAGLER. FLAGLER. SORRY. UM. THEY SEE HERE. I DON'T HAVE FLAGLER. ON THE LEVEL OF SERVICE REPORT. SO I WOULD JUST LIKE TO HAVE DETERMINATION. IT'S A CITY ROADWAY, ISN'T IT? WHAT PART OF IT? I THINK? YEAH, SO I'D LIKE FOR US TO HAVE THAT. IF WE CAN GET TO TERMINAL LEVEL OF SERVICE FOR FLAGLER. UM BEFORE SECOND READING, JUST LOOKING AT THE LAND USE CHANGE. RATHER THAN THE FALL THAN THE PLAN THAT'S BEING PROVIDED. THOSE ARE THE TWO THINGS THANKS. HMM. CAN IT? CAN I ASK A QUESTION? I DON'T HAVE TO HEAR IT IS I DIDN'T HAVE THAT THEY STAFF REPORT IN FRONT OF ME WHEN I WAS SWITCHED, SO I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU. I THINK YOU MENTIONED IT BRIEFLY. AND I CAN'T FIND THIS SPECIFIC THING TO SAY WHETHER OR NOT IT WAS ACTUALLY IN THE STAFF REPORT. BUT THE AMOUNT OF WATERFRONT. INDUSTRIAL MARINE THAT WE HAVE NOW IN OUR LAND USE LIKE THE NUMBER OF ACREAGE OR DESIGNATION ABSOLUTELY NOT ENTIRE COM PLAN FOR THE CITY. REMEMBER IT'S 12.6 ACRES. JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE SAYING WE HAVE. YES, WE HAVE 109 ACRES OF INDUSTRIAL AND 12.6 ACRES OF MARINE INDUSTRY. WHAT A FRONT YEAH.WIDELY. I'LL MAKE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL. WE GOTTA CLOSE THE HEARING WAS GONNA YEAH, IF WE HAD RUNNING QUESTIONS FOR STAFF FOR THE AFRICAN PUBLIC COMMENTS. YES. ONE MORE QUESTION FOR MR FREEMAN AS WE DISCUSSED THIS FUTURE LAND USE CHANGEABLE, COMPARING THEM THE MAXIMUM BUILDING. AND WHETHER ALL OUR SERVICES WE PROVIDE WHETHER IT'S THE ROADWAY, UTILITIES OR WHATNOT. ARE WE GOING TO LOOK AT THIS PROPOSAL THAT IT'S ALREADY INDUSTRI? SO WE'RE ASSUMING IN
[02:50:08]
THIS DECISION THAT WE ARE PROVIDING UP TO RIGHT CURRENTLY. THE MAXIMUM USE. OF INDUSTRIAL.SO WE'RE THE PRESUMPTION IS THAT THE CITY HAS THE CAPACITY TO PROVIDE. NOT THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY PROVIDING. WE CURRENTLY HAVE THAT CAPACITY TO PROVIDE THE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT. OF THE NUMBERS. YOU QUOTE OF WHAT IT WOULD BE WITH INDUSTRIAL. AND SO THE DECISION MIGHT BE THAT THE DIFFERENCE WHETHER IT'S SMALL OR NOT, OF INDUSTRIAL TO MARINE INDUSTRIAL AND CAN WE STILL PROVIDE THAT. IF NEED BE. AND AGAIN TO GO FURTHER. WE'RE NOT GOING TO LOOK IN THIS DECISION.
AT THE FURTHER LIMITATIONS ARE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE MIGHT RESTRICT FROM THOSE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT NUMBERS. CORRECT, OK? SO. THANK YOU FOR THAT WAY, AND WE WILL GET A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION BETWEEN NOW AND SECOND READING ON WHAT COMMISSIONER MEYER BROUGHT UP.
WE HAVE A MOTION. FOR APPROVAL. AND THE SECOND WE HAVE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE MOTION.

YOU, MR PRICE. THANK YOU. CAN MISS ROBYN CARTWRIGHT. GOOD EVENING, MR CARTWRIGHT. UM I DO THINK THIS LAND USES THE CORRECT ONE. BUT I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT A COUPLE OF THINGS BECAUSE, AS MR MEYER NOTED, YOU CAN'T UN KNOW WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT THE SITE PLAN. SO A COUPLE OF THINGS TO NOTE REGARDING THE FUTURE LAND YOU SPECIFICALLY THE CPB HAD TWO DISSENTING VOTES, WHETHER IT WAS SPECIFIC TO THE SITE PLAN OR NOT REMAINS TO BE SEEN. BUT THERE ARE THINGS THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE NOTES FROM THAT MEETING. UM, THE MAX BUILD OUT THAT WAS PRESENTED THIS EVENING DOES NOT MATCH WHAT WAS PRESENTED IN STAFFS REPORT TO YOU. IT WAS ACTUALLY MENTIONED IN STAFFS REPORT THAT TRIP GENERATION IDENTIFIED AS IF IT'S PURELY RESIDENTIAL WILL BE 237 UNITS, NOT THE NUMBER THAT WAS REFERENCED UP HERE. UM ALSO, IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT AS PART OF THE SITE PLAN, I DO THINK THAT WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT. I DO APPRECIATE I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT WE AS A COMMUNITY APPRECIATE YOU LOOKING AT THE FUTURE LINUX SEPARATELY FROM THE SITE PLAN TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT'S BEING ASSIGNED IS WHAT TRULY IS APPLICABLE TO THE LAND.THANK YOU. ANY OTHER PUBLIC COMMENTS. SAID MS MCVIE, HELEN MCBRIEN. GOOD EVENING. GOOD EVENING. HELLO MCBRIDE. I'VE BEEN ONLY HERE 49 YEARS AND AS EVERYONE KNOWS, I DON'T GET ON A BOAT. BOB DID AND ALL HIS FRIENDS DID. AND I KNOW HOW IMPORTANT NOT JUST THE BOAT IS BUT FOR MERCHANTS AND THE ECONOMY OF THE BOAT INDUSTRY DOES FOR THE CITY HISTORIC MARTIN COUNTY, AND I AM DEFINITELY IN FAVOR OF THIS. UM, MOTION. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
THAT IS ALL. THE ONLINE THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE A MOTION. AND A SECOND FOR APPROVAL OF ORDINANCE NUMBER 24. 85-2022 MR MAYOR, CAN I ADDRESS YES. COMMENTS ON THE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT, OKAY, DID SEE ON FRIDAY THAT THE STAFF REPORT WAS INCORRECT IN THAT IT. INCLUDED AN AREA WHICH IS THE CITY'S RIGHT AWAY IN THERE OR ON CITY PROPERTY IN THERE. AND SO WE ADJUSTED THE FUTURE AND THE FLOOR AREA RATIO. THE MAXIMUM BUILD OUT IS, UM 15 MULTIPLIED BY 10.81, WHICH IS 100 AND 62, NOT THE 237 THAT WAS STATED INSTEAD. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT UP, MR FREEMAN AND THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING ON WITH THE FUTURE OF THESE PRESENTATIONS.
YES AND THIS IS WHY TONIGHT. THIS WAS INTRODUCED AS AN EXHIBIT BECAUSE WE DIDN'T KNOW ERRORS IN THE STAFF REPORT. THANK YOU. CAN I ASK ONE QUESTION, ACTUALLY. YEAH PLEASE, MR MAYOR. THANKS SORRY NOW SINCE WE'RE GOING SINCE WE'RE GOING INTO THE NUMBER OF UNITS, UM. I THINK ONE THING THAT CAUGHT ME IN THE IN THE STAFF REPORT. PREVIOUSLY READING IT WITH THE INCORRECT NUMBER. UM WAS THAT IT LAID OUT THAT YOU KNOW, 10 POINT. 81 OF SOLID PORTION OF THAT OF MORE THAN NEARLY THREE ACRES, IF NOT MORE, IS SUBMERGED. AND SO, UM I THINK THE IDEA WAS THAT YOU KNOW, THIS IS THE MAXIMUM JUST BY THE STRAIGHT NUMBERS. BUT YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BUILD A HOUSE ON SUBMERGED BUT THAT THEN MY QUESTION IS RIGHT TO WE HAVE.
SO THERE IS SOME ANTICIPATION THAT RIGHT UNDERNEATH GROSS SITE AREA UNDER THE GROWTH SITE AREA THAT COULD BE CALCULATED, SO THAT'S SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND. AGAIN IT COMES DOWN TO THE WORST CASE, MOST DEVELOPABLE MAXIMIZED INTENSIVE USES. WHAT WE'RE BASING THIS MADAM. PLEASE CALL THE ROLL. I DON'T HAVE WHO'S SECONDED. UH ME. CLARK CLARK WAS COMMISSIONER CLARK CLARK WAS THE SECOND THANK YOU. VICE MAYOR MCDONALD YES, COMMISSIONER CLARK. YES COMMISSIONER BURNER. MATHESON AND COMMISSIONER MEYER. YES.
