[ROLL CALL]

MARY, WILL YOU CALL THE ROLL? MAYOR MCDONALD HERE. MAYOR BRUNER COMMISSIONER CLARK HERE.

COMMISSIONER COLLINS COMMISSIONER RICH OKAY, WE DON'T HAVE A PASTOR, FOR THE IMPLICATION WILL DO A MOMENT OF SILENCE, FOLLOWED BY THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE POSSIBLE. THANK YOU. CONGRATULATIONS RIGHT? THANK YOU. MY NATION. OF COURSE. OKAY, JOLIE. UM. GOOD AFTERNOON

[1. 2024 BUDGET INTRODUCTION]

WE HAVE MET WITH THE HEALTH INSURANCE ADMINISTRATOR. AND THE CITY IS BASICALLY TAKING A 10% INCREASE TO THE EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTION CITY MANAGER IS HANDED A SMALLER INCREASE TO THE EMPLOYEES FOR THE SHARE BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE STAFF, SO THAT'S A 10% INCREASE IN THE EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS FOR HEALTH 4% INCREASE IN THE IN SOME OF THE DENTAL PORTIONS.

SOME HAD NO INCREASE AT ALL IN THE DENTAL SIDE. BASICALLY THAT FLOWS THROUGH TO EACH OF COIN.

DANIEL SEE THAT THAT DOESN'T EXACTLY QUITE TO A NUMERICAL INCREASE OF THAT AMOUNT BECAUSE THIS IS ACTUALLY APPLIED TO EACH INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYEES CHOICE AND AS EMPLOYEES CHANGE THEIR BENEFITS, SOME EMPLOYEES BECOME FAMILY COVERAGE. SOME DROP FAMILY COVERAGE. NEW EMPLOYEES COME ON, SO WE'LL DISCUSS THAT WHEN WE GET TO IT. ALSO FRS INCREASES FOR JULY 1ST, WHICH ACTUALLY GO INTO EFFECT ON THE NEXT PAYCHECK THEIR FISCAL YEARS. JULY 1ST OF JUNE 30TH. SO WE WILL EXPERIENCE PART OF THAT INCREASE IN THIS FISCAL YEAR FOR THOSE NEW RATES HAVE GONE IN, AND THERE'S SOME LEGISLATION THAT INCREASED THOSE FRS RATES. AND THEN OUR GENERAL PROPERTY, CASUALTY LIABILITY AND WORKERS' COMP INSURANCE INCREASED AND THAT WAS A 23% INCREASE TO THE CITY. AND UH, I SIT ON THAT BOARD AND THAT'S REALLY ABOUT THE BEST WE COULD. DO YOU KNOW, THE STATE HAS A VERY SPARSE INSURANCE BUSINESS NOW HAS HURRICANES RAVAGED THE WEST COAST OF FLORIDA AND CYBERATTACKS FEWER AND FEWER COMPANIES ARE OFFERING EVEN TO COVER POLICIES IN THE STATES, SO IT'S BECOME HARDER FOR OUR CONSORTIUM OF GOVERNMENTS TO REQUIRE COVERAGE. NOW INCREASES . WHAT WE DON'T KNOW. YET. UNION NEGOTIATIONS BEGIN TOMORROW. UM AND I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT WE EXPECT TO WRAP THOSE UP. PRETTY QUICKLY THIS YEAR, SO I KNOW THAT ROSIN HR IS GOING TO START THOSE TOMORROW. WITH SOME OF THE UNION MEMBERS. AND THE STATE REVENUES AS I'VE BEEN TELLING YOU, FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVE BEEN ON THE COMMISSION LAST FEW YEARS ARE IN ATTENDANCE AT THE MEETINGS. JUST LIKE WE USED 9 11 TO ADD FEES TO THE AIRLINES THAT NEVER WENT AWAY. THE STATE USED COVID DELAY POSTING NUMBERS, AND NOW THEY'VE NEVER GONE BACK TO PUTTING THEM OUT AT THE SAME TIME THEY USED TO SO THEY LITERALLY TODAY AT FOUR O'CLOCK, THEIR WEBSITE STILL SAYS THESE REVENUES ARE EXPECTED TO BE POSTED SOMETIME IN JUNE TO JULY, 2023. SO THAT'S YOU KNOW. WAIT LIKE EVERYONE ELSE FOR THESE NUMBERS. THE FRS CHANGES THAT WE'RE GONNA AFFECT YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE WAS A INCREASES TO EACH OF THE GROUPS THAT WE REPRESENT HERE. 13% OF GENERAL 17 TO PUBLIC SAFETY NINE TO SENIOR MANAGEMENT TO THE ELECTED OFFICIALS AND 13% TO DROP WHEN YOU HAVE THE ACTUAL DOCUMENT TO BE EASIER TO SEE. SORRY. SO UH, AND THOSE, OF COURSE FLOW THROUGH THE NUMBERS NOW IN THIS PRESENTATION THIS IS NOT THE

[00:05:01]

BEFORE THAT. THESE ARE THESE INTERESTING YEARS HERE WITH THE YEARS THAT THE HOUSING BUBBLE BUSTED AND OUR PROPERTY VALUES ACTUALLY DECREASED THIS MUCH. THESE ARE ACCUMULATIVE, SO IT'S NOT JUST A ONE YEAR HIT OF 11. IT WAS ADDED TO THE TENANT SO BASICALLY A 22 SOMETHING PERCENT TOTAL DECREASE IN TAXABLE VALUE THOSE YEARS. SO. NOW HERE WE ARE . WHERE ARE MILLAGE HAS BEEN I OFTEN SAY THAT, LIKE RON POP, PEALE'S PASTA MAKER WOULD LIKE TO SET IT AND FORGET IT. SO YOU CAN SEE THE CITY USUALLY ESTABLISHES A MILLAGE. AND IF I WENT ALL THE WAY BACK TO NINETIES FIVE, WHEN I CAME TO THE CITY, THERE WERE MANY YEARS OF FLAT. YOU KNOW THE MILITARY REMAIN IN THE SAME EVERY YEAR ALSO, SO HERE WE'VE HAD THESE LONG RUNS OF MILLAGE. UM WE'VE HAD A COUPLE YOU KNOW, BACK DURING THE GO, GO YEARS WE DID AN INCREASE. AND THEN THE NEXT YEAR WE SHAVED OFF A LITTLE BIT THAT WAS NOT ROLLED BACK. THEN WE ACTUALLY WENT TO ROLL BACK.

AND WE KEPT IT AT THAT RATE ALL THROUGH THE HOUSING MARKET BUBBLE BUST, WHICH YOU'LL SEE IN THIS NEXT SLIDE. BUT THAT DID TO OUR REVENUE THAT YOU CAN SEE THAT WE ACTUALLY WENT UP. WE MADE ANOTHER INCREASE. THIS IS THE ONE YEAR WE DID. THE ADMINISTRATIVE INCREASE STATE ALLOWS US TO ADMINISTRATIVELY CHANGED THE VILLAGE IF THAT FINAL NUMBER COMES IN MORE THAN 3% DIFFERENT UH, WE WENT BACK TO THE SAME VILLAGE AS THE PRIOR YEAR REMAINED WITHIN THIS ONE YEAR WE SHAVED OFF A LITTLE MILLAGE AGAIN. THERE'S ABOUT $110,000. AND THEN, UH, DAVID DIA SHEARS. WE BETWEEN THE CITY MANAGER AND THE COMMISSION. WE AGREED THAT THE CITY WAS SORELY BEHIND IN THE TIMES. SO WE DID A QUARTER MIL INCREASE IN AN ADDITIONAL QUARTER MIL INCREASE NEXT YEAR. AND NOW WE'VE BEEN RUNNING ALONG AT FIVE THIS BUDGET THAT I'M CURRENTLY WORKING ON THAT THE MANAGER HAS NOT APPROVED ROUTINE. I HAVE A FIVE MIL IN THIS BUDGET FOR WORKING PURPOSES. THIS IS WHAT EUROPE ALARM HAS DONE. SO UH, WE'VE BEEN TALKING BACK HERE IN 2007. WE WERE MAKING $10 MILLION IN ADVIL. OR, UM WHEN THE BUBBLE BUSTED AND WE KEPT OUR MILLAGE THE SAME AND DID NOT TAKE ROLLBACK. WE ACTUALLY DROPPED OUR REVENUE DOWN TO 6.4 MILLION AT ONE TIME, SO I MEAN, I WAS MAKING MORE MONEY IN 2007 THAN I WAS IN 2012. UM WE NEVER TOLD THE CITIZENS THAT THEY GOT A TAX CUT. WE JUST REDUCE THEIR TAXES . AND NOW HERE WE ARE THIS YEAR, THIS 16.8% INCREASE RESULTS IN A $15 MILLION BUDGETED AVELAR, UM BY TRIM LAW. I DO 95% OF THE COLLECTION AMOUNT, NOT 100. AND YOU KNOW, LAST YEAR WAS 13. NOW IT'S 15. IN THIS BUDGET THAT

[00:10:04]

SO, OF COURSE, EVERYONE'S WE HAD A 16.8% INCREASE, NO MATTER HOW YOU EXPLAINED IT, AND, UH, THAT'S $2 MILLION. WELL, THAT 2,000,001 88 98. IF YOU SAY WELL , THE GENERAL FUND IS GIVING THE CR ANOTHER 421,009 45 AND $50, THEN WE GAVE THEM LAST YEAR. UH HEALTH INSURANCE INCREASE IMPACTED GENERAL FUND. IS $530,000 THE INCREASE IN GENERAL LIABILITY INSURANCE TO GENERAL WAS $56,000 INCREASE IN FRS EXPENSES. $896,000 MEANS THAT YOU ACTUALLY ARE LEFT WITH ONLY 282,280 NEW DOLLARS TO SPEND. JULIE WHAT WAS THE FRS NUMBER AGAIN? 8 96 9 78 REMEMBER? I THINK IT WAS 2011 OR 12, BUT IT WAS LIKE 5 50. I THOUGHT THAT WAS A BIG NUMBER. WELL, YES, SIR. BUT AS I SAID, THE THAT 37% FOR PUBLIC SAFETY IS GOING TO BE APPLIED TO NINE NEW FIRE MEDICS AS WELL AS THREE POLICE OFFICERS , UM, THE ACTUAL INCREASE. YOU KNOW, FRS PUTS OUT THEIR OWN DOCUMENTATION, SAYING THAT THE EFFECTIVE RATE INCREASES 2.8% BUT YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO APPLY TO EACH ONE OF OUR PEOPLE AND AS THEY AS IT APPLIES TO EACH DEPARTMENT SO THAT LARGE PORTION OF THE $800,000 INCREASE ARE THE NEW POSITIONS IN 2011. IT WAS JUST A THEY NEEDED MORE MONEY SO THEY RAISED. YES, SIR. THE BOARD SO THEIR THEIR LEGISLATIVE INCREASES THIS YEAR THAT YOU KNOW SOME OF THE THINGS I'VE DONE IS THEY'VE ADDED ADDITIONAL DROP YEARS IN THEY'VE MOVED IN SOME OF THE WHAT WE KNOW IS CODE ENFORCEMENT PEOPLE. THOSE TYPES CAN BE CLASSIFIED AS HIGH RISK.

NOW THEY'VE CHANGED SOME OF THE VESTING PERIODS THEY'VE ADDED ADDITIONAL DISABILITIES FOR SOME OF THE HIGH RISK EMPLOYEES. YOU KNOW, A SITUATION THAT QUALIFY FOR DISABILITY PENSIONS. ALL OF

[00:15:01]

ESSENTIALLY WHAT IT COMES DOWN TO IS YOU GET $2 MILLION MORE IN AVELAR. UM, BUT AFTER YOU PAY YOUR BILLS AND THE INCREASE YOU REALLY ONLY HAVE $282,000 FROM AVALON. NOW, AS I SAID, WE DON'T WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE NUMBERS FROM THE STATE AND THIS THIS THE AVALERE IS ALWAYS A YEAR BEHIND.

SO EVEN IF REAL ESTATE WAS SLOWING DOWN THIS YEAR, WE WON'T FEEL THAT UNTIL THE NEXT BUDGET 25 BUDGET WOULD EXPERIENCE REDUCED, REDUCED ADVIL OR, UM, IF THE HOUSING MARKET IS SLOWING OR IF THE CONSTRUCTION MARKETS LINE THE SALES, TAX, MUNICIPAL REVENUE SHARING AND ALL THOSE OTHER POPULATIONS THROUGH THE NUMBERS THAT I SPOKE ABOUT IT OUR STRATEGIC PLANNING SESSION.

THE STATE HASN'T RELEASED THOSE YET. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THEIR BEAVER POPULATION ESTIMATES ARE YET FOR THE STATE. SPECIFICALLY DOWN TO STUART ITSELF. AND WHAT IMPACT YOU KNOW THE NET NUMBERS 800 PEOPLE A DAY COMING TO FLORIDA. I THINK YOU KNOW MOVEON'S LET'S MOVE OUTS IS AN INCREASE OF 800 PEOPLE A DAY, SO I'M SURE THAT'S THAT'S GOING TO AFFECT THE STATE COFFERS POSITIVELY IN OUR FAVOR. SOMEWHERE. UH, THEN WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? SO WHAT'S NEXT? WELL BEFORE WE MEET WITH THE MANAGER, INDIVIDUAL DEPARTMENTS ARE GOING TO DISCUSS WITH FINANCE. YOU KNOW, I'VE NOTICED SOME THINGS WHERE I THINK THEY HAVE SOME DUPLICATIONS OR WHATEVER. WE'VE ADDED AN ACCOUNT NUMBER AND THEY DIDN'T REDUCE IT . FUEL EXPENSES. STILL A MOVING TARGET. YOU KNOW, EVERYONE GASP DEEPLY LAST YEAR WHEN I BUDGETED $3 A GALLON FOR GAS BACK IN 2022 . I SAID IN 23, IT'S GOING TO BE $3 A GALLON. WE BASICALLY PAID THE CITY I THINK I JUST LOOKED AT THE LAST INVOICE TODAY. WE'RE STILL PAYING TO 90 FOR DIESEL AND 2 50 FOR UNLEADED NOW, SO I DON'T KNOW IF I'M GOING TO MOVE THE FUEL NUMBER AT ALL GIVEN I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITH THE FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION. AND ALSO, YOU KNOW, THERE'S SOME LARGE CAPITAL REQUEST IN THIS BUDGET AS WELL, AND WE NEED TO LOOK AT WHAT'S THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO FUND THOSE IF I'M GOING TO DO STRAIGHT CAPITAL RESERVE FUNDING AND PAY CASH FOR THEM OR IF WE'RE GOING TO TRY SOME KIND OF ENHANCED FINANCING TO PAY FOR THESE LARGE CAPITAL PURCHASES, OR THE MANAGERS SIMPLY SAYS NO, YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BECAUSE, AS I SAID, HE HASN'T HE HASN'T DONE THIS. I REFER TO IT AS THE PUTS AND TAKES. SO FINANCIAL HAND THIS BUDGET OVER TO THE MANAGER READY TO LOOK AT WHAT THE DEPARTMENTS HAVE FINALLY SUBMITTED, AND THAT'S USUALLY ARE EXERCISES. THE MANAGER AND I WILL GO THROUGH IT. HE'LL TELL ME WHAT TO KEEP AND WHAT TO ADD MAYBE OR WHAT TO TAKE OUT AND THEN A CURRENT. CURRENTLY THE MANAGER HAS PLANNED TO PRESENT HIS FIRST WORKSHOP TO YOU ON THE REGULARLY SCHEDULED MEETING FOR JULY, 24TH. I WOULD LEAVE THAT UP TO YOU AND THE MANAGER TO DISCUSS IF YOU WANT ANYTHING DIFFERENT THAN THAT, BUT THAT'S OUR PLAN IS TO HAVE A BUDGET WORKSHOP WHERE YOU CAN GO PAGE BY PAGE AND, UH, VOICE OR YOUR CONCERNS AND QUESTIONS AT THAT TIME. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS NOW? QUESTIONS. NO, UM. IT WAS WELL, IT KIND OF HAS TO DO WITH THE BUDGET, BUT IT'S LIKE VERY, VERY BROAD AND LARGE. WE'VE GONE OVER THE WHOLE SENATE BILL ONE OR TWO AND THINGS AS WONDERING MAYBE I MISSED IT, MIKE, OR MAYBE WE JUST HAVEN'T TALKED GOTTEN TO IT. THERE WASN'T A PARTICULAR QUOTE UNQUOTE UNFUNDED MANDATE FROM THE STATE THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH AND SPECIFICALLY ADD TO OUR BUDGET THIS YEAR, IF YOU KNOW OF ANYTHING. BUT IF IT'S ALL JUST GENERAL. NO COMMISSION. I DON'T KNOW OF ANY TRULY UNFUNDED MANDATES. WE HAVE YET TO SEE WHAT THE IMPACT WOULD BE. FROM THE WORST CASE SCENARIO OF A SENATE BILL 1/2. HAPPENING I MEAN, WE STILL SHOULD COLLECT PERMIT FEES, AND I THINK THAT ANYTHING THAT WAS REFERENCE WAS HYPOTHETICALLY SPEAKING, RELATED TO ENFORCEMENT AND OR MANAGEMENT OF THE. DEVELOPMENT THAT MIGHT COME FROM IT AND FOR EXAMPLE, AND I KNOW THE HOUSING COALITION FOR THE STATE WAS GOING TO PUT TOGETHER ADMINISTRATIVE RULES AND THEY'RE WORKING ON THEM, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE. BUT IF, IN FACT THE DEVELOPMENT WERE TO BE BUILT, AND 40% OF THE UNITS WERE CLAIMED TO BE WITHIN THAT 120% OF THE AMI. NUMBER ONE WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIFYING THAT NUMBER NUMBER TWO WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIFYING THAT THE DEVELOPER IS WITHIN THAT NUMBER AND THEN NUMBER THREE WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR ENFORCING

[00:20:03]

IF YOU WOULD, MY WORST CASE SCENARIO WOULD BE A LARGE TAXABLE PROPERTY ON THE ROLE NOW GETS DEMOLISHED AND REBUILT AS THE MEGALITH THAT WE'RE ALL AFRAID OF HAVING, AND THEY MEET THE REQUIREMENT OF BEING 100% EXEMPT FROM TAXES. THAT WOULD BE IF YOU WANTED ME TO IMAGINE A WORST CASE SCENARIO FOR YOU. THAT WOULD BE IT, AND EVEN THEN, A SINGLE PROPERTY IS NOT GOING TO MOVE THE NEEDLE FOR THE CITY. ON THE TOTAL AVALON. IN CASE SOMETHING COMMISSIONER RICH.

JUST TO THE POINT ON 102. MR MARTEL. THE EXEMPTION ONLY APPLIES TO THOSE UNITS THAT QUALIFIED, YOU KNOW? THE AD ALARM EXEMPTION FOR NOT THE WHOLE DEVELOPMENT. THAT IS ALSO NOT GOING TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH US ANYWAY, BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE THE PROPERTY APPRAISER THAT SETS THE EXEMPTION, AND IT'S NOT EVEN THOSE UNITS LIKE THE DEVELOPERS HAVE A MISCONCEPTION THAT IF THEY BUILD 70 UNITS. THEY BUILD MORE THAN THAT, BUT THEY HAVE TO HAVE A MINIMUM OF 70 UNITS TO QUALIFY. BUT IF THEY BUILD SO MANY UNITS AND 40% OF THEM ARE BEING RENTED TO PEOPLE AT 120% OF THE AM I NONE OF THAT QUALIFIED. THE STATE ACTUALLY PUBLISHES A RENTAL AMOUNT THAT THEY MUST PRE APPLY FOR STATE APPROVAL AND GET APPROVED TO QUALIFY FOR THAT ADVIL ARM EXEMPTION. AND LAST YEAR THAT RENTAL AMOUNT WAS $1500 PER MONTH. SO IF SOMEONE WAS RENTING AN APARTMENT AT $1700 A MONTH THERE APARTMENT WOULD NOT HAVE QUALIFIED FOR THE EXEMPTION. THEY HAVE ALARM EXEMPTION. THE TRUTH OF IT IS THE DEVELOPER IS GOING TO BE MUCH BETTER FINANCIALLY AND ECONOMICALLY TO NOT RENT AT THE PROTECTED RATE TO CHARGE THE RENT OF THE 120% AND PAY THE FULL FREIGHT ON THE ADVIL OR, UM, ANYWAY. OKAY UM, THANK YOU.

IT'S WE DIDN'T START WITH THIS THAT WE STARTED THIS PROJECT WITH A DIFFERENT ALL DIFFERENT STAFF AND THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT AND NOW WE'RE IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE WORKING WITH JEOPARDY AND CHRIS, THOUGH, AND CRYSTAL A GREAT JOB IN PRESENTING THIS. I'M NOT GOING TO HELP BUILD A SKIP THROUGH A LOT OF THIS STUFF BECAUSE HE'S COVERED IT. AND IN GOOD DETAIL. JUST GIVE YOU SOME MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WILLIS AND SOME PARTICULARS OF THE PROJECT. I HAVE TO TURN IT ON. PERFECT. ALRIGHT SO WHAT? WHO WAS WILLIS CUSTOM YACHTS RIGHT? SO WILLIS CUSTOM YACHTS IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN MARK WILLIS HAS BEEN BUILDING BOATS, SINCE, UH, SPORT CUSTOM SUPPORT OF FISHING BOATS SINCE 1983 UH UM AND BROOKE SMITH, WHO IS THE FOUNDER OF INCOME, WHICH IS AN ONLINE PAYMENT PROCESSING PROCESSING COMPANY? BUT TOGETHER MARK AND BROOKS HAVE THE VISION TO MAKE WILLIS CUSTOM YACHTS, PREMIER SPORT FISH. BOAT BUILDING COMPANY. AND THEY'RE GONNA DO IT RIGHT HERE AND IN MARTIN COUNTY AND STEWART UM THIS PROJECT HERE AT THE SITE WOULD CREATE APPROXIMATELY 25 NEW JOBS. UM WE'RE FINE WITH THE CONDITION OF APPROVAL THAT LIMITS THE HOURS OF OPERATION TO WHAT IT DOES, IN FACT, UM, THE PLAN IS NOT TO BE OPEN ON THE WEEKENDS AT ALL THE NORMAL NORMAL OPERATING BUSINESS ERRORS HAVE BEEN MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. 7 A.M. TO 4 30 ROUGHLY UM. AND THEN YOU KNOW, IN MAY OF 2021 IS

[01:00:06]

REQUIREMENTS. AS CHRIS ALSO MENTIONED THERE WAS A PREVIOUSLY APPROVED PIPELINE NEVER BUILT BUT APPROVED IN 2004. I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THAT PROJECT COMPARED TO THE PROJECT . WE'RE PUTTING FORWARD THAT WAS TWICE TWICE AS BIG TWICE AS BIG OF A FOOTPRINT. UM, ARE FOOTPRINT OF THIS PROPOSED BUILDING IS ABOUT 15,000 SQUARE FEET. THIS WAS A 30,000. SQUARE FOOT BUILDING, AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SLIDE ON THE SCREEN. IT WAS NOT ONLY BIGGER BUT SORT OF CENTERED IN THE SITE AND NOT SETBACK AS FAR FROM THE HEART BRIDGE. CONDOMINIUM BUILDING TO THE NORTH. BECAUSE IT WAS BIGGER REQUIRED. 44 PARKING SPACES. UM OF WHICH THEY ONLY HAD 25 SPACES ON SITE. WHICH MEANS THAT 19 OF THE SPACES WE'RE GOING TO BE USED IN THE RIGHT OF WAY OF LILA AVENUE. UM HAR PROPOSED PROJECT, WHICH I'LL SHOW YOU MISS LIGHT IN A SECOND, YOU KNOW. CONTAINS ALL THE REQUIRED PARKING ON SITE. WE HAVE 14 REQUIRED SPACES AND WE'RE PROVIDING 18 ON OUR SITE. AND NOT ONLY WAS THERE NOT ENOUGH PARKING ON THE SITE, THE PARKING THAT WAS PROVIDED ACTUALLY CROSSED OVER THE COMMON PROPERTY LINE. THERE WAS LITERALLY NO LANDSCAPE BUFFER BETWEEN PREVIOUSLY APPROVED. YOU KNOW, SITE IMPROVEMENTS AND THE HARVARD CONDOMINIUM BUILDING.

AND THEN. BUT WAS BUILT. WHAT WAS THERE FOR A LONG, LONG TIME UNTIL 2020 ROUGHLY 2021? UM WE'RE THREE. YOU KNOW BUILDINGS THAT USED TO EXIST AS PART OF THE NAME IS ESCAPING ME. THE PALM CITY, UH, HOME CITY YARDS PROJECT. AND YOU CAN SEE THAT. TWO OF THE BUILDINGS, INCLUDING A FAIRLY TALL BUILDING WAS YOU KNOW, ONLY SETBACK 16 FT FROM THE NORTH PROPERTY LINE, WHICH IS NOT A GREAT CONDITION FOR YOU KNOW THE HARDWOOD CONDOMINIUM TO LOOK OUT TO. AND THEN THE THIRD BUILDING THIS BUILDING, WHICH WAS REALLY NOT NECESSARY BUILDING PER SE, BUT IT WAS MORE OF A COVERED COVERED METAL BUILDING WAS IN THE SOUTH. SOUTHWEST PORSCHE THE SITE AGAIN, NOT IN A SUPER ATTRACTIVE BUILDING TO LOOK AT. UM THIS IS OUR PROPOSED SITE PLAN. I'LL WALK YOU THROUGH A FEW KEY ELEMENTS OF IT. ONE THING IS THAT CURRENTLY THE BAY WALK THE SIDEWALK ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE HARVARD JUST DEAD ENDS AT THEIR SOUTH PROPERTY LINE. WHERE IT MEETS THIS PROPERTY. AND WHILE WE LOVE TO BRING A SIDEWALK, OTHER PAY WALKTHROUGH ARE SAYING WE CAN'T DO THAT, BECAUSE IT'S A WORKING WATERFRONT WILL HAVE BOATS GOING IN OUT OF THE WATER

[01:05:02]

AFTER REACHES A CERTAIN ELEVATION STAGE AS OPPOSED TO, YOU KNOW, FLOODING ON THE NEIGHBOR PROPERTIES. IT DOESN'T WE HOLD ALL OF OUR WATER ON SITE. SO THESE ARE SOME RENDERINGS. I THINK THEY WERE IN CHRISTMAS PRESENTATION AS WELL. SO THIS IS WHAT YOU WOULD SEE IF YOU WERE DRIVING ON THE BRIDGE. UM YOU KNOW, LOOKING TO THE TO THE WEST. UM AGAIN. OUR HEIGHT IS WHERE REQUESTING THE HEIGHT OF 45 FT, WHICH YOU KNOW, THE HARBOR BRIDGE BUILDING IS ABOUT 42 FT, SO IT'S BASICALLY THE SAME HEIGHT. TO THE TO OUR SOUTH ATLANTA POINT MARINA. THEY WERE APPROVED FOR MY CODE. IT WAS 45 FT, BUT THEY HAVE AN ADDITIONAL 15 FT. SO IN ESSENCE, THEY'RE 60 FT, WHERE SHE LOWER AND HIGHER THAN THEY ARE. UM THIS IS A SIMILAR VIEW. BUT THIS ISN'T LIKE IF YOU'RE STANDING ON THE PROPERTY, LOOKING TO THE WEST AND TO THE SOUTH A LITTLE BIT.

UM, THIS IS SORT OF THE THIS IS THE ATTRACT, TRIED TO HAVE ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS THAT THIS YEAR A WAS TALKING ABOUT NOT WANTING TO CHANGE AND I THINK JUST FOR THE RECORD, I THINK IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN READING THE RECORD THAT THAT WAS AN L P A CONDITION BUT I THINK IT WAS A

[01:10:04]

THAT'S DOING SOME OF THEM. YOU ALL WORK ON THE ATLANTIC POINT MARINA PROJECT. SO HE'S HE'S COME UP WITH AN IDEA FOR AN IN CONSULTATION WITH WILL IS, OF COURSE TO UM, PUT A MURAL ON THE MIDDLE PANEL. THAT'S NAUTICAL THEME FITS WITH WILLIS FITS WITH THE THEME OF THE CITY, OF COURSE, AND IN THIS PARTICULAR SITE. AND THAT'S THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HE'S PROPOSED. SO WE PUT THAT IN OUR RENDERING OF THIS PROJECT SO THAT THAT'S A LITTLE SNEAK PEEK. UM, WITH THAT, YOU KNOW? THAT'S OUR PRESENTATION. ANY QUESTIONS WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? SO THAT RIGHT BLUE. IS IT? THAT'S. THE BRIGHT BLUE. SORRY. YEAH OTHER ONE AND THE BIG ROYAL WHERE THE FISH AND THE OTHER BILL, THE OTHER, UM THE OTHER SKETCH. THERE WAS ANOTHER THING WHEN IT SHOWED THAT THIS ONE YEAH. OKAY? YOU DON'T HAVE THE NAME OF THE ONLY NAME THAT YOU HAVE IS WHERE YOU HAVE IT WITH THE FISH THERE ON THE ON THE COLUMN. THAT'S THE ONLY THAT'S ALL THE ONLY SIGN HERE WE HAVE ONE. THIS THAT WILL BE A SIGN ON THE BUILDING, AND THERE IS ONE MONUMENT SIGNED PROPOSED AT THE DRIVEWAY INSURANCE, TOO. OKAY NOW I HEAR FROM, UM MISTER MCCRAY, GNU, PROBABLY MISS SPORT WHERE I THINK FOR THE MOST PART. YOU DID SAY 45 FT. ONE TIME YOU SAID 40 FT WAS WONDERING IF THAT CHANGE SO MAXIMUM OF WALK TO 45 FT. AND THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE. 45 IS ONE QUESTION, OKAY? UM I MEAN, I TALKED EXTENSIVELY WHEN I HAD THE TIME TO TALK TO THEM, BUT I WANTED TO ASK MR MCRANEY, AND MAYBE IT'S NOT CRITICAL WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT MAINTENANCE OF THE MANGROVE. I WAS WONDERING IF I WANTED OR NEEDED TO ADD OR ANY OTHER NATIVE VEGETATION THAT'S EXISTED IN THE AREA OF THE CONCERNED ABOUT MANGROVE BECAUSE OF THE COLD RELATED TO MAN GOES AND SO ON. BUT IF THERE'S ANY OTHER SPECIAL SPECIES OF GRASSES OR ANYTHING THAT WERE SPECIAL TO THAT WATERFRONT AREA. IF IT SHOULD SAY OR OTHER NATIVE VEGETATION OR JUST MEN, GROVE. I'M FINE AS LONG AS IT MEETS ALL THE REQUIREMENTS. SURELY ADD THAT TO THE TO THE LANGUAGE. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THERE EVEN ARE ANY MANGROVES. THERE'S PROBABLY NOT. YEAH, IT'S JUST FOR THE STANDARD REQUIREMENTS, BUT I CAN ADD ANOTHER NATIVE VEGETATION. IF YOU WANT, BUT I KNOW THAT THE SITE IS COMPLETELY ASPHALTED. OKAY OVER CURRENTLY SO IT WOULD BE DIGGING ALL THAT UP. AND THAT'S WHAT THAT DOES DEBATE MINT FOR MY ONLY CONCERN WITH THAT. I DON'T KNOW IF LIKE A RICA PALMS ARE CONSIDERED NATIVE BECAUSE WE'RE PRESERVING SOME OF EUREKA. BOMBS HERE ARE LOOKING AT AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH. THERE'S SOME AMERICANS THAT ARE IN MORE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE PROJECT THAT WE DO HAVE TO REMOVE. SO IF THAT WERE CONSIDERED NATIVE AND WE'D HAVE TO PROTECTED WHERE IT IS. THAT COULD BE A PROBLEM. LET ME ASK THE LANGUAGE. I DIDN'T LOOK INTO IT. I DON'T. I DON'T HAVE MY DRAWING UP IN FRONT OF ME. BUT IS THERE UH, SLOPE UP? FROM WHERE THE LINEAR SIDEWALK WOULD COME IN FROM OH, THE HEART BRIDGE. AND THEN GET BACK OVER TO THE TO THE ROADWAY. UM THE FLAG WITH THE EXTENSION COMES DOWN ZERO SLOPE UP. OR IS IT JUST GONNA BE RE GRADING? THE ENTIRE SITE. YEAH. YEAH, IT'LL BE SLOPED. THE NORTH PART WILL BE BASICALLY SLOPED. AWAY FROM THE HARVARD'S SITE TOWARDS OURS, SO THE WATER FALLS INTO THE DETENTION AREA AND NOT ONTO THEIR PROPERTY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. COMMISSIONER RICH UM . FIRST OF ALL, I'D LIKE TO COMPLIMENT THE LK. EXAMINATION AND LISTING. I THINK IT WAS ACTUALLY THE CRB. YEAH, I JUST SPOKE. IT WAS THE CRB

[01:15:02]

LET ME JUST ASK YOU A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS. SO IT SAYS NO LIVE ABOARD VESSELS. SO THIS COUPLE COMES DOWN AND THEY SPENT QUITE A BIT OF MONEY ON THIS NEW BOAT AND SITTING THERE THE DOCTOR NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO STAY THERE ON AND OVERNIGHT NO FURTHER RECORD IS SUBMERGED. LAND LEASE HAS A SPECIFIC DEFINITION UNDER THE STATE OF FLORIDA AS TO WHAT'S DEFINED AS LIVABLE, AND I BELIEVE IT'S MORE THAN FIVE DAYS THERE WILL BE WILL BE ABLE TO LIVING VERSUS CAMPING OUT, OKAY? AND IT'S SO ITEM 34. THE FOLLOWING USES SHALL BE PERMITTED LIMITED BOAT REPAIR SERVICES INDOORS. THAT MEANS JUST IN THE SHED. SO THE BOATS SITTING AT THE DOCK AND THE DIESELS NEED TO BE FIXED. YOU'RE AGREEING THAT THE MECHANIC CAN'T GO DOWN. UM, SEEMS A BIT I WANT TO REST. I DON'T KNOW. WHAT THAT MEANS, MR MANAGER. IT'S YOUR CODE, BUT THE CITY CODE SAYS ONE OF THE REASONS FOR THE CHANGING OF THE LAND USE WAS THAT THE INDUSTRIAL USE ONLY ALLOWED.

OUTDOOR. AND AS A RESULT, NO ONE WAS ALLOWED TO DO ANYTHING INSIDE WHERE THERE WAS A RECONDITIONING. WHICH WAS A LITTLE INCONSISTENT, TOO. I DON'T. I'M NOT AWARE OF A SINGLE TIME THAT THE OTHER MARINAS HAVE HAD THE OUTDOOR REPAIR POLICE CONVERGING DOWN THE DOCK TO CATCH SOMEBODY FOR CHANGING A FUEL FILTER SOMETHING SO I DON'T THINK THAT THAT IS THE INTENT OF THE CODE. I THINK IT'S MORE OF A SOMEONE'S MAKING A SIMPLE REPAIR TO THE DOCK. THAT'S FINE. BUT IF THEY STARTED USING THE DOCKS AS A MEANS TO REPAIR ALL OF THE MOTORS AND TAKING VOTES APART ON THE DOCKS AND TREATING HIS INDUSTRIAL SITE THAT PROBABLY WOULD DEFEAT THE PURPOSE AND WOULD BE USED AS A TOOL TO MAKE THEM KEEP THE SITE IN AN ORGANIZED MANNER. YEAH. TALKING . TO WILLIS. THAT'S A PROBLEM IF IT'S SUPER STRAIGHT LIKE THAT, I MEAN THE ABILITY TO DO VERY MINOR STUFF TO THE BOATS THAT ARE IN THE WATER WOULD BE ON THE HEARTS OR ON THE HEART'S NOT ANYTHING. NOISY OR MAJOR, OF COURSE, NOT EVEN MAJOR PAST CONDITIONS. THAT WE ANTICIPATE.

BEING IGNORED. SO. THE PROBLEM, MR MANAGER AT SEEMS MEAN SEEMS A BIT ONEROUS TO ME CHANGE IT.

WE'LL BE WITH THE WORD INCIDENTAL REPAIRS BE OKAY IN TERMS OF SOMETHING THAT'S ALLOWED OUTSIDE. BETTER A THOUGHT INSTRUMENTAL MEANS PRECISELY, BUT I JUST BELIEVE ME , THEY ARE GOING TO BE THE DIESEL GUYS ARE GOING TO BE WALKING DOWN THE DOCK TO WORK ON THOSE ENGINES. THAT'S JUST THAT'S HOW IT WORKS. SO OKAY. WE'RE NOT GONNA BE FARING BOATS.

WHAT BEARING YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT? OKAY SO I WAS SHE WASN'T FINISHED. I WAS JUST UP AT THE HINCKLEY HEARD HIM PORTSMOUTH, RHODE ISLAND, AND LAST YEAR AND FROM ASLEEP. THEY HAD A TERRIBLE FIRE UP THERE. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE AWARE OF THAT. IT'S A VERY FAMOUS YARD IS GIGANTIC. NOWHERE NEAR THIS SIZE. CAN YOU, UM FIRE FIRE. IT HAD TO DO WITH VAPORS IN THE BUILDING AND THEY DIDN'T DEAL WITH THEM PROPERLY. I ACTUALLY WAS SPEAKING TO HIM ABOUT IT.

AND, UM BUT THERE'S ALSO FOR EXAMPLE, THIS IS NOW ILLEGAL IN RHODE ISLAND. THAT CLASSIC TWO STEP, TEACH TREATMENT. YOU KNOW THAT. THE ONE FIRST THE ASSET AND THEN THE. IS THAT A PROBLEM WITH THAT PRODUCT BE USED IN THIS SPACE, FOR EXAMPLE. THERE WAS NOT BECAUSE I IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT. YOU KNOW, IT'S A DIFFICULT PART OF THE MARINE INDUSTRY. IS THE PRESENCE OF CHEMICALS, SOME OF THEM QUITE NOXIOUS, SOME OF THEM SOME OF THEM TOXIC. SO I WILL BE DOING A

[01:20:06]

ATTENTION IN ALL INSTANCES OF APPROPRIATE NOT SAYING YOUR FALL TO YOUR BUT YEAH, JUST TO MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT PUTTING SOME NASTY STUFF IN OUR WATERWAY THERE, SO WE DO HAVE A MARINE POLICE. COMMISSIONER RICH I BELIEVE. THIS IS A THIS IS AN URBAN CODE CONDITIONAL USE AMENDMENT, WHICH IS A ONE READING AGENDA ITEM. OH, YEAH. THE LANGUAGE. AND IF YOU WANTED , WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO COMMUNICATE IN MORE DETAIL? WHAT TYPE OF WORK AND WHAT CHEMICALS YOU'RE GOING TO BE USING ON THIS SURE THAT WEST WILLIS CUSTOM YACHTS DOES HE NEED TO BE SWORN IN HAVE YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO CONSIDER IT EVIDENCE IN YOUR DECISION? TO TELL THE TRUTH OR TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. SO BE GARDEN. OKAY, ALRIGHT. SO, UM, AS MATT MENTIONED WE'RE DOING ALL OF OUR MAJOR WORK AT THE YARD ON JACK JAMES WILL WE DO THE BOAT BUILDING THERE, AND WE ALSO DO MAJOR REPAIR WORK. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? THIS IS GOING TO BE A OUR DELIVERY FACILITY. WHEN WE FINISHED, A NEW BOAT WILL PUT IT IN THE WATER WILL TAKE IT OVER THIS FACILITY WILL DO. FINAL COMMISSIONING WILL DO SEE TRIALS AND WILL MAKE ADJUSTMENTS AS WE NEED TO. WE'LL ALSO DO MINOR SERVICE WORK IN THIS FACILITY, WHICH WOULD BE UM. NOTHING DESTRUCTIVE. WE WOULD WE WOULD NOT DO ANY DESTRUCTIVE WORK IN THIS FACILITY AT ALL. THIS WOULD BE PAINTING THE BOTTOM OF THE BOAT. UM. ENGINE MODIFICATIONS OR ADJUSTMENTS. UM. THROUGH HOLE REPLACEMENTS, THINGS LIKE THAT. JUST WHAT WE CALL THE SHAVE AND A HAIRCUT STUFF. UM THINK OF IT LIKE A JIFFY LUBE IN THE AUTOMOTIVE WORLD. IT'S THIS IS IN AND OUT STUFF THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO THIS FACILITY. IT'S NOT GOING TO POTENTIALLY BE PAINTING THE BOTTOM OF THE BOAT, GIVING IT A NEW COAT OF ALL GRIP ON THE BOTTOM. YES AND IN THE WAY OUR FACILITIES WORK IS WE HAVE A HAZARDOUS STORAGE AREA AND WE HAVE THAT HAZARDOUS MATERIAL REMOVED FROM THE FROM THE FACILITY BY LICENSED CARRIER AND THAT HAPPENS AS NEEDED. IT WILL HAVE THE SAME THING HERE.

IT WILL BE STORED IN UM THE PROPER CHEMICAL LOCKERS SO THAT IT'S NOT EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS. YOUR LARGE BUILDING. SUCH A PAINT IT YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO SCRAPE IT FIRST. UM SO IF WE HAVE A BOAT THAT HAS, UM THAT NEEDS SANDBLASTING OR THAT . TYPE OF PREPARATION WILL SEND THEM TO THE OTHER YARD. THIS IS JUST A LIGHT SANDING AND WE USED DUST THE SANDERS WITH VACUUM ATTACHED AND IT'S JUST TO GET THE RIGHT PROFILE OF THE SURFACE. AND THEN WE, UH APPLY THE PAINT. SO. IS IT INDICATED IN HERE? WE'RE REQUIRING THE PRESENCE OF THIS TOXIC.

TREATMENT. IT'S REQUIRED BY THE ALREADY HAS IT'S REQUIRED BY THE FDP. OKAY WE THEY DO REGULAR INSPECTIONS. YEAH. THANKS, MR BERGER. I JUST WANTED TO ADD YOUR BUILDING OUT THERE. WERE YOU BUILD THESE MULTI MULTI MILLION DOLLAR BOATS IS THAT ALL OPEN AIR NO. YES IT'S SO ALL THOSE, UM THOSE BUILDINGS HAVE DOORS THAT WE OPENED UP DURING THE DAY. SO THERE'S BUT THE PROPER AIRFLOW. WE DON'T DO ANYTHING IN AN ENCLOSED AND HERE , UM WILL THAT BE INDOOR? UM IS IT ALL IN CLOSED WILL BE A C WE'RE WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS THAT THE PEOPLE THAT WOULD BE VISITING WOULD NOTICE IF ANYTHING WAS OUT OF PLACE. SO THE WHERE WILL BE SMELLS ENOUGH WHERE WE'RE GONNA BE DOING THE. THE MAINTENANCE WORK ON THESE BOATS. IT'S OPEN AREAS. ONE END OF THE BUILDING IS OPEN. AND THERE WILL BE AIRFLOW THROUGH THERE, AND WE HAVE CIRCULATION FANS IN, YOU KNOW OUR BUILDINGS AS WELL AS THE OTHER FACILITY, AND WE WILL HERE AS WELL.

WHATEVER YOU SAY. JUST ONE SECOND COMMISSIONER CLARK IS THAT IT IS AN INDUSTRIAL USE OF AND I DO KNOW THAT, UH, THE FDP OSHA HAS STRICT REGULATIONS REGARDING THE USE OF CHEMICALS,

[01:25:04]

MONEY COMES IN. MONEY STAYS HERE. THE PRODUCT LEAVES. YET AND THEN, AS FROM THE FUTURE, THE OWNERS OF THESE BOATS ARE GOING TO AMERICA S. THEY'RE GONNA NEED PARTS MAINTENANCE REPAIRS, WHICH THE EMPLOYEES BASED OUT OF MARTIN COUNTY ARE GOING TO BE PROVIDING THOSE COMPONENTS PARTS REPAIRS, AND I WOULD HAVE GUESSED AT THE PRICE OF THE EAST COAST FROM TIME TO TIME. YOU EVEN FLY PEOPLE FROM HERE SOMEPLACE ELSE IN THE WORLD. YES WE DO MAINTENANCE AND EMERGENCY REPAIRS ON THESE BOATS . SURPRISE. I BET YOU HIT THE BAHAMAS QUITE A BIT. UH UM. SO WELL, YEAH, WE ALL THE, UH, NOT OFFER BECAUSE YOUR BOATS ARE SO WELL MADE POPULAR FISHING SPOTS . OKAY YES, YES, THE MOTORS THAT IT'S THE PEOPLE THAT MAKE THE MOTORS THAT USED TO GIVE YOU THE MOST HEADACHE. BUT ANYWAYS, COMMISSIONER CLARK MISTER MCCRAY . MAYBE I MISSED IT, BUT I'LL HELP ME OUT. THESE TYPE OF BUILDINGS THESE BASE WITH METAL STRUCTURES, 45 FT THAT WILL HOUSE THE LARGE YACHTS OF BOATS. WHAT IS LIKE MIAMI DADE BUILDING STANDARD HURRICANE RATING FOR THAT. IS THAT THE SAME THING THAT ALL THE OTHER CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS BECAUSE IT'S HIS METAL BASE THINGS AND I KNOW THAT WE WENT THROUGH THE OTHER INDUSTRIAL WATERFRONT, AND I JUST PROBABLY IT'S ALL ALREADY COVERED VERY CLEARLY IN OUR BUILDING CODE. I JUST WANTED TO BE SURE, COMMISSIONER CLARK SO THIS BUILDING WOULD NOT BE A METAL STRUCTURE. THIS WOULD BE A TILT WALL CONSTRUCTION OKAY, AND IT WOULD BE REVIEWED THROUGH THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT FOR YOU KNOW, COMPLIANCE WITH THE BUILDING CODE. FLORIDA BUILDING CODE FOR WIND LOADS AND ALL THAT. I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE BUILDING CODE, SO I CAN'T REALLY ANSWER THAT QUESTION. BUT ARE BUILDING INSPECTOR ARE BUILDING OFFICIAL WOULD BE REVIEWING THIS APPLICATION FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH . IT'S NOT GOING TO BE ALLOWED IF IT DOESN'T MEET THE FLORIDA BUILDING CODE IN OUR BUILDING OFFICIALS NOT ALLOWED TO OVERRIDE THE CODE WERE YEP. THANK YOU. THE ISSUE OF COLLEGE.

I WAS GOING TO MAKE A MOTION, BUT THAT'S OKAY. WE'RE NOT QUITE SURE YET CLOSE TO HEARINGS.

OKAY, SO JUST JUST A COUPLE QUICK THINGS. UM ONE IS. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU GOT A MESSAGE FROM ROBIN NUNLEY, BUT JUST TO VOICE HER CONCERNS I JUST WANTED TO SAY, SAY SHE HAD BROUGHT UP.

POTENTIALLY BECAUSE PART OF THE ENTRANCE INTO THIS WILL BE THROUGH THAT HARBORING PROPERTY AND CONCERNS ABOUT PARKING POTENTIALLY HAVE, YOU KNOW, COMPELLING HMM. THE DEVELOPER HERE TO PAY FOR MAINTENANCE AND I JUST WANTED TO ADDRESS THIS CONCERN. FORMALLY BECAUSE FROM MY UNDERSTANDING THE. PD WAS. I GUESS IT WASN'T A FEW DEALS CONDITIONAL USE AT THE TIME. THE CONDITIONS THAT WERE PUT ON THAT PROPERTY. THESE SORTS OF ISSUES AND MIKE, YOU CAN HELP ME SO IN

[01:30:03]

FURTHER ABOUT THE DETAILS OF IT . AND IF I COULD JUST SAY I WAS HERE IN 2018 WHEN WE APPROVED THAT MODIFICATION, AND IT WAS THE H O A. AND THE DEVELOPER. SETTLE THE LAWSUIT THAT INCLUDED A CHANGE IN A THERAPY YOU D AND OKAY. WE HAD BEEN FIGHTING. THE LIVE ABOARDS ON BEHALF PRETTY MUCH ON BEHALF OF THE WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING ON BEHALF AND THEN THEY COME BACK IN AND SAID NO, THAT'S WE DON'T WANT TO DO THAT ANY LONGER. WE WANT YOU TO GIVE THEM ALL THAT WE WANT THEM TO HAVE ALL THE LIVE ABOARDS. THEY WANT TO HAVE A RESTAURANT HAVE ALL THE PARKING ISSUES. AND AT THAT POINT IT WAS, UM I THINK IT WAS KIND OF A VERY BITTER, TOUGH DECISION. BUT THE. CHAMBERS WERE PACKED WITH HARVARD H O A MEMBERS ASKING US TO PROVE THAT P U D EARLY MODERN URBAN MODIFICATION, BUT THERE ARE TRADITIONAL USE THE CONDITIONAL USE OF BECAUSE THEY NEEDED THAT TO SETTLE BECAUSE THAT WAS A CONDITION OF THE SETTLEMENT OF THE LAWSUIT. UM I NEVER ACTUALLY THOUGHT IT WAS A VERY GOOD SETTLEMENT FOR THEM, BUT THAT BETWEEN THEM AND THE H O A. AND IT WAS VERY. THE COMMISSION MADE IT VERY CLEAR AT THE TIME THAT OKAY. YOU KNOW WE'RE OUT OF IT.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS INTERNAL WITH WITH YOU ALL AND I'VE SPOKEN WITH WITH ROBIN EXTENSIVELY, AND

[01:35:04]

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT TO MAKE A MOTION. SO I JUST WANTED TO SAY FOR ME PERSONALLY, THAT WAS ME, SORT OF ADDRESSING COMMENTS I HAD RECEIVED FROM ME PERSONALLY, I'M VERY THANKFUL FOR WHAT YOU'RE DOING. I LOVE TO SEE THAT THIS IS GOING TO CREATE MORE JOBS. I KNOW SOME OF THE PEOPLE THAT WORK FOR YOU. AND I'M APPRECIATIVE THAT YOU ARE PROVIDING THE ABILITY FOR PEOPLE TO FEED THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILY. GIVE THEM SKILLED LABOR EXPERIENCE. AND I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS BEING HERE. MY ONLY I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF I'D CALL IT A CONCERN. IS JUST IN LIGHT OF SB 102. I KNOW YOU HAVE ZERO DESIRE TO MAKE THIS APARTMENT. OKAY I KNOW IT'S NOT EVEN IN YOUR UM, WORLD AT ALL, BUT SHOULD WE JUST LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE, YOU KNOW? IT'S NOT. IT'S NOT NECESSARY FROM NOW BECAUSE YOU KNOW, RESIDENTIAL THE HARBOR BRIDGE DEVELOPMENT ITSELF. THIS IS PART OF THAT DEVELOPMENT DENSITY IS ALREADY USED UP FOR THIS SITE IN THE REST OF THE DEVELOPMENT ANY POSSIBLE WAY THAT AT SOME POINT SOMEBODY COULD BUY THIS PROPERTY AND SAY SB 102 HERE, TOO, BUT THE CITY COMMISSION COULD VOTE TO INCREASE ABOVE 30 UNITS PER ACRE. BUT RIGHT NOW THE HARBOR BRIDGE DEVELOPMENT USES UP ALL OF THE ACREAGE OF THE ENTIRE PROPERTY TO GET THE APPROVAL FOR THE OTHER CONDOS, SO THE VACANT PARCELS ARE ALREADY COUNTED TOWARD THE DENSITY. THAT'S THERE AND BUILT SO. YES I THINK THERE I THINK IT'S 27 OR 28 UNITS PER ACRE. IS IT WHAT? 22 UNITS AN ACRE SO TECHNICALLY, SOMEBODY COULD COME BACK AND AMEND THE WHOLE EU DE AND SAY WE WANT TO INCREASE IT, BUT THEY COULDN'T DO IT BY ADMINISTRATIVE APPROVAL . WITHOUT A PUBLIC HEARING. IT WOULD HAVE TO BE A P U D AMENDMENTS. P U D IT'S A CONDITIONAL USE. AMENDMENT BUT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE SPECIFICALLY THIS ONE. THIS THIS. RESOLUTION THAT YOU GUYS ARE REVIEWING RIGHT NOW IS IF YOU LOOK AT THE FIRST PARAGRAPH, IT SHOULD MENTION THE THIS IS RESOLUTION 42-2023. BUT IF YOU OPEN IT UP AND YOU LOOK, IT REFERS TO WHEREAS OF RESOLUTION 1 96-04 IN THE IN THE SECOND WHEREAS AND TALKS ABOUT THE 22 UNITS BREAKERS. SO THIS IS AN AMENDMENT OF THAT, SO IT'S A CONTINUATION OF THAT, AND IT'S ALL PART OF THE SAME THING, SO THERE'S NO DENSITY ALLOWED WITHOUT SO DOES THE REST OF THE WHOLE SITE. THIS AFFECT A LARGER P U D. YES SORT OF AGREE. THIS IS INTERPRETATION OF THE LARGER PIECES. THIS IS JUST AN AMENDMENT TO THE LAST VACANT PARCEL IN THE ENTIRE LARGER P U D IS A RE AND. AN AMENDMENT OF THE LARGER PD. IS IT WORTH? INCLUDING THAT THERE WOULD BE NO RESIDENTIAL ON THIS PARTICULAR SITE. IT'S UP TO YOU. I MEAN, YOU GUYS ARE WELCOME TO DO FOR A LONG TERM HEDGE. POTENTIALLY MAYBE. WHAT DO YOU CALL THAT WHERE YOU DID RESTRICT THIS PARTICULAR? WELL THE URBAN CODE ORDER IS INDEED RESTRICTION. SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE ORDER OF THE RESOLUTION, IT'S GOT CONDITIONS THAT THE ONE THAT WAS DONE IN 2018 HAD 28 CONDITIONS. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OF THIS HAS BUT IT HAS I'M SCROLLING THROUGH. THIS ONE HAS 34 CONDITIONS SO YOU COULD ADD A CONDITION 35. THAT SAYS THERE WON'T BE ANY RESIDENTIAL ON THIS SITE. IF I COULD, THEN WE'RE 34 ALREADY SAID THE FOLLOWING USES ARE PERMITTED AND DOESN'T LIST RESIDENTIAL SO YEAH, INEFFECTIVE COVERED THE LAND USE COVERS, IF THAT OFFERS ANY CONSOLATION, RELENT, OKAY, I'M GONNA MOVE ONTO THE NEXT THING PETITIONER HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO OFFER. NO JUST THE ONE THING ABOUT THE DON'T KNOW IF NOW'S THE TIME OR WHEN YOU MAKE A MOTION JUST IN TERMS OF THE ABOUT NUMBER 34 THE INCIDENTAL. OH, YES, REPAIRS OUTDOORS. I MEAN, I WAS JUST LOOKING AT IT. TO ME A SIMPLE WAY TO REMEDY THAT IS TAKE NUMBER A OF 34 THAT SAYS, CURRENTLY SAYS LTD. BOAT REPAIR SERVICES COMMON INDOOR. ANOTHER COMMENTS AND INCIDENTAL REPAIRS. COMMA OUTDOOR MAYBE. LANGUAGE. AT THE END OF WHAT YOU CURRENTLY HAVE ON A JUST ADD A COMMA AND SAY, AND INCIDENTAL REPAIRS COMMA OUTDOORS. I WOULD I WOULD NEED THEM. IT'S NOT TIME

GREAT PROJECT, RIGHT, REUSE, REPURPOSE AND RE CREATING VALUE IN OUR DOWNTOWN, INCREASING THE TAX BASE OF THAT PARCEL. ANOTHER NOTABLE PARCEL THAT HE DID THIS TO WAS THE GOODYEAR ON COLORADO , AND I THINK WE ALL REMEMBER THE TRANSITION. AND WHAT A SUCCESS WE'VE SEEN OCCUR ON COLORADO AS FAR AS THE 555 BUILDING. THE GOODYEAR BUILDING THAT NOW HOUSES WAS FRUITS AND ROOTS. THERE'S SOME GROOMERS AND SOME OTHER LITTLE ARTISANS SINCE SUCH SO HE'S DONE AMAZING JOB. THERE'S ANOTHER PROJECT THAT HE DID, UM, ON MARKET RIGHT THERE, ACROSS FROM WALMART VERY SUCCESSFUL PROJECT HE DELIVERED THERE. MARKETPLACE BUSINESS CENTER, WHICH IS VERY SIMILAR TO THIS. IT'S A FLEX WAREHOUSE TYPE OF PRODUCT. UM THAT'S ROUGHLY 2000 SQUARE FEET, PLUS OR MINUS , HAS A STOREFRONT AND THEN A ROLL UP DOOR IN THE BACK FOR TO

[02:00:03]

KEV FREEMAN WAS A DIRECTOR AT THAT POINT IN TIME, AND WE CAN GET THROUGH THE PROCESS FASTER.

WE ALREADY HAVE AN APPLICATION IN REVIEW FOR SITE PLAN APPROVAL STAFFS REVIEWED THAT WERE LIKE 99% COMPLIANCE THERE WERE PROPOSING THE SAME PRODUCT THAT WAS DELIVERED SUCCESSFULLY ON COMMERCE AT THE 26 10 SOUTH MARKETPLACE. SO. THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING. I HOPE YOU'LL SOON YOU'LL SEE THE BENEFIT TO OUR COMMUNITY. UM, AS FAR AS ANNEXATION GOES WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE SOUTH END OF THE CITY OF STEWART OVER THE DECADES. WE CONTINUE TO GOBBLE UP THESE COMMERCIAL AREAS.
