I'M JUST TRYING TO BE MINDFUL OF THE TIME. SO PLEASE FORGIVE ME AS WE START A LITTLE PROMPTLY TODAY. IT IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL TO SEE YOU LADIES AND GENTLEMEN IF YOU WOULD LET'S PLEASE STAND AND ALSO THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TOGETHER I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE REPUBLIC. IT'S ALWAYS YOU SAYING THIS IS ONE NATION UNDER GOD INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL AT THIS TIME I'D LIKE TO CALL THIS MEETING TO ORDER AND ASK FOR OUR CITY CLERK TO CALL ROLL PLEASE. COMMISSIONER BOLTON IS NOT PRESENT YET. COMMISSIONER GALEN. GOOD MORNING COMMISSIONER FISHMAN. 
          GOOD MORNING. MAYOR FLACCO GOOD MORNING. MAYOR GOMEZ GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY. WE ARE 
          [Additional Item]
GOING TO GO A LITTLE OUT OF TURN TODAY. WE DO HAVE OUR SHERIFF HERE AND WE WILL GIVE HIM THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WITH US. WE'RE VERY PROUD THAT HE IS HERE WITH US. 
          I WILL ALSO LIKE TO THANK THE ELECTORS IN THE ROOM WE HAVE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER ALHADEFF HERE. WE HAVE COMMITTED BROWARD COUNTY COMMISSIONER MICHAEL EUGENE. I BELIEVE WE HAVE FORMER MAYOR BETH TALIB CISCO IN THE ROOM AND I BELIEVE DR. OSGOOD IS HERE OR ON HER WAY. IF THERE'S ANYBODY THAT I'VE MISSED I DO APOLOGIZE. THEN WE CAN GET TO THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE THAT LATER. AND WITHOUT ANY FURTHER ADO OUR SHERIFF WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK WITH US I WON'T MAKE YOU SAY YOUR NAME AND I JUST FOR THE RECORD. GOOD MORNING I'M GREGORY TONEY 26 SO ONE FOUR HOUR BOULEVARD. THANK YOU. IF YOU'LL MAKE ANY CONCESSIONS FOR ME. FIRST OF ALL GOOD MORNING FOLKS. I KNOW THIS IS A TIME OF A LOT OF TURMOIL AND CONTROVERSY BETWEEN THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY IN WHICH WE SERVE. I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT WHEN I SPOKE TO THE MAYOR TO COME HERE AND KIND OF ADDRESS NOT JUST THIS COMMISSION BUT FOR ALL THE FOLKS BEHIND ME WHO ARE CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN OUR ORGANIZATION. I CAN TELL YOU SINCE WE'VE HAD THIS INCIDENT DEVELOP WHERE OUR OFFICERS MY DEPUTIES WERE INVOLVED IN USE OF FORCE IN MAKING AN ARREST OF A YOUNG MAN IN OUR COMMUNITY. I'VE GOTTEN ALL THE E-MAILS I'VE GOTTEN ALL THE PHONE CALLS I'VE GOTTEN ALL THE CURIOSITIES AS TO WHETHER OR NOT I AS THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATOR FOR THIS ORGANIZATION WAS GOING TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND WHAT FOLKS NEED TO UNDERSTAND IS THAT THE RIGHT THING IS NOT A SINGULAR MOVEMENT TOWARDS TAKING AN ACTION WHERE WE DON'T EXECUTE DUE PROCESS SETTINGS THAT ARE ESTABLISHED RULE 5 FLORIDA LAW THE LAW ENFORCEMENT BILL OF RIGHTS. AND TO JUMP AHEAD OF THAT IS GOING TO BE A CONFLICT GREATER THAN WHAT WE'VE ALREADY SEEN. AND TO SUMMARIZE THAT I'VE HAD A CHANCE TO WITNESS A LOT OF DIFFERENT DEMANDS ABOUT HOW WE NEED TO RESPOND IMMEDIATELY. I'VE RESPONDED IMMEDIATELY. WE'VE ALREADY STARTED AN INTERNAL AFFAIRS INVESTIGATIONS WORKING WITH THE STATE ATTORNEY ENSURING THAT CRIMINAL CHARGES WERE SUITABLE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE DEPUTIES RESPONDED WITHIN COMPLIANCE OF OUR POLICIES FOR USE OF FORCE. AND SO AS WE CONTINUE TO WORK THIS INVESTIGATION THINGS MAY CHANGE AS THEY DID YESTERDAY. THE DEPUTIES WHO WERE INVOLVED WENT FROM BEING A RESTRICTIVE DUTY TO BEING SUSPENDED. NOW WE ARE NOT CLOSED THE INVESTIGATION PHASE MAY CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD. THERE MAY BE OTHER DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS THAT TAKE PLACE BUT I WILL NOT JUMP AHEAD OF THE STANDARD PROTOCOLS PROVIDING DUE PROCESS SETTINGS FOR OUR DEPUTIES. WE AS A COUNTRY DEMAND THAT WHEN WE ARE INVOLVED IN ARRESTING ANYONE THAT THEY GET THEIR SHARE THAT THEY GET THEIR PROCESSING ELEMENTS BE STEPPING IN FRONT OF A COURT SYSTEM AMONGST A GROUP OF THEIR PEERS AND ACTUALLY HAVING EVIDENCE AND PROCEDURAL INFORMATION PRESENTED THAT IS DESIGNED TO SAY THEY ARE GUILTY OR NOT. AND I CAN TELL YOU TO SEE THE DEMAND FOR EVERYONE TO SAY JUST GO AHEAD OUT AND EXECUTE THE PUBLIC OPINIONS NEED IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN ON MY WATCH. I OWE IT TO THE DEPUTIES WHETHER THEY ARE WRONG OR NOT 
          [00:05:05]
TO ENSURE THAT THEY GET THEIR DUE PROCESS ELEMENTS THAT ARE ARTICULATED BY LAW NOT BY AN OPINION NOT BY SOMEONE'S INDEPENDENT EXPECTATION. AND WHEN THOSE FACT FINDINGS ARE DONE IF THEY NEED TO HAVE FURTHER DISCIPLINE IT WILL HAPPEN. THE ONE THING I WOULD ENCOURAGE JUST COMMUNITY AND EVERY SINGLE ELECTED OFFICIAL THAT SIT IN FRONT OF ME. IT'S VERY EASY TO STAND UP AND CRY OUT THAT WE NEED TO THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE NEED TO JUST FLAT OUT TERMINATE THIS EMPLOYEE. THAT'S EASY FOR ALL OF YOU TO DO BUT IT'S NOT EASY TO DO FOR THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATOR HERE WHO IS COMPELLED TO EXECUTE ACTIVITIES BY LAW. AND A LOT OF ELECTED OFFICIALS HAVE JUMPED AHEAD AND I THINK IT'S INFLAMMATORY BECAUSE I ALSO HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T GET 50 MORE KIDS OUT IN THE COMMUNITY GETTING IN AND RIOTING AND FEELING AS THOUGH THAT THEIR CHIEF LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER IS NOT SYMPATHETIC TO THEIR NEEDS. THE THING THAT I'M NOT SYMPATHETIC TO THE CONCERNS THAT I'M NOT SYMPATHETIC TO THE ALLEGATIONS OF EXCESSIVE FORCE I WAS PUT HERE EXCLUSIVELY FOR ABOUT ACCOUNTABILITY TO TAKE LEADERSHIP AND LEAD THIS ORGANIZATION FORWARD BY BEING OBJECTIVE BEING FAIR AND MAKING SURE THAT EVERY SINGLE EMPLOYEE ALL 50 500 MY EMPLOYEES WERE GOING TO BE HELD TO THE SAME STANDARD AND EXPECTATIONS THAT WE HAVE FOR THE CIVILIANS AND CITIZENS THAT LIVE IN THIS COUNTY. I'M NOT HERE TO SPEAK IN TERMS OF POLITICS. THE COMMUNITY WILL GET THEIR JUST DESSERTS. AND SO WERE MY DEPUTIES. SO AS WE CONTINUE TO GO THROUGH THIS PROCESS I WOULD HOPE THAT THE COMMUNITY TO STAND BEHIND YOU UNDERSTANDS IT THAT WE DON'T CREATE FURTHER RIFF AND CONFLICT WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY THE ENTIRE NATION IS WATCHING AND THEY WANT TO KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO DO AND HOW WE'RE GOING TO RESPOND BUT THEY DON'T LIVE IN BROWARD COUNTY THIS IS OUR COUNTY. AND IF WE'RE GOING TO START DICTATING ACTIONS BECAUSE WHAT SOMEBODY THINK ABOUT IN COLORADO OR DENVER OR ANYWHERE ELSE PART OF THE UNITED STATES THEN WE ARE AT LAWS I SEE WHAT'S GOING ON. I UNDERSTAND IT'S VERY INTENSE. I UNDERSTAND THERE'S AN EMOTIONAL SIDE TO IT. BUT DON'T LOSE FOCUS ON IF WE'RE GONNA WANT JUSTICE FOR ONE IT'S JUSTICE FOR ALL. AND SO WITH THAT IF THERE'S ANY LINE OF CONSIDERATIONS OR QUESTIONS THAT YOU WANT TO OFFER OR PRESENT I'LL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER. I APPRECIATE THAT SHERIFF. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND ONE THING I'D LIKE TO JUST STATE FOR EVERYBODY WHILE THIS IS VERY POLITICALLY CHARGED. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE OPINIONS AND EMOTIONS SO WHEN THERE ARE SPEAKERS WHO HAVE ANY COMMENTS I WOULD ASK YOU TO RESPECT THE SPEAKER. NO COMMENT. NO BOOING NO CHEERING NO CLAPPING TO TRY TO KEEP DECORUM IN THE IN THE AUDIENCE AND I WILL OPEN THIS UP TO MY COLLEAGUES AND I SEE THAT COMMISSIONER GO HAS A QUESTION OR COMMENT. MORNING SIR. GOOD MORNING SHERIFF TONY. THANKS FOR BEING HERE THIS MORNING. THANKS FOR MEETING WITH THE BROWARD BLACK ELECTED OFFICIALS ON SATURDAY MORNING. THAT MEETING WAS PRESCHEDULED PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT AND YOU AGREED TO ADDRESS THAT TOPIC WHILE MEETING WITH US AND THEN YOU ALSO AGREED TO SHOW UP HERE AT MY REQUEST TO ADDRESS OUR COMMUNITY. AND I ASK THAT EITHER YOU COME OR A HIGH LEVEL PERSON COME AND YOU STATED THAT YOU FELT THIS WAS SO IMPORTANT THAT YOU NEEDED TO BE HERE. SO FOR THAT I CERTAINLY APPRECIATE IT. I RESPECT THE ROLE OF POLICE OFFICERS. I KNOW HOW HOW TOUGH THE JOB IS. AS A YOUNG PERSON THAT DID NOT WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE I CONSIDERED BECOMING A POLICE OFFICER BUT I KNOW MY TEMPERAMENT AND I KNOW THAT I PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO HANDLE SOME OF THE SITUATIONS THAT POLICE OFFICERS GO THROUGH. I WOULD WANT TO INFLICT MY OWN JUSTICE ON ON SUSPECTS BASED ON CERTAIN CRIMINAL ACTIONS SO I REMOVE MYSELF FROM THAT PROCESS. JUST YESTERDAY I WAS AT THE NORTH BROWARD COLLEGE CAMPUS AT THE GRADUATION CEREMONY OF THE THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SECOND CLASS OF NEW POLICE OFFICERS REPRESENTING VARIOUS CITIES. MY MY BEST FRIEND FROM HIGH SCHOOL JUST BECAME A POLICE OFFICER FOR THE CITY OF FORT LAUDERDALE. ONE OF THE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THE SPEAKER SAID ABOUT THE POLICE OFFICERS AND THE NEW CLASS HE SAID TO ALL THE NEW GRADUATES AS OF TODAY YOU FORFEIT THE RIGHT TO HAVE A BAD DAY. YOU MUST BE OUTSTANDING YOU FORFEIT THE RIGHT TO HAVE A BAD DAY. AND I WOULD ARGUE THAT THE THREE POLICE OFFICERS WHO RESPONDED IN TAMARACK HAD A BAD DAY. THE ONE POLICE OFFICER WHOOPS WHO THE MACE AND THE BOY'S FACE AND THROWN TO THE GROUND. THE OTHER POLICE OFFICER WHO JUMPED ON TOP OF THE GUY AND SLAMMED HIS HEAD INTO THE CONCRETE 
          [00:10:03]
BREAKING THE BOY'S NOSE AND THEN THE THIRD POLICE OFFICER THAT PEOPLE ARE REALLY TALKING ABOUT. HE JUST HAD HIS FOOT RESTING ON AN ARRESTEE WHO WAS ALREADY ON THE GROUND. SO I THINK THE ACTIONS OF ALL THREE POLICE OFFICERS WERE INAPPROPRIATE AND EXCESSIVE AND BECAUSE OF THAT I APPRECIATE THE PROCESS THAT YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH. I RESPECT THE PROCESS. I UNDERSTAND DUE PROCESS AND I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WOULD BE MAKING A MISTAKE BY TAKING IMMEDIATE ACTION WHICH WHEN THE PRESS GOES AWAY IT WOULD COME BACK IN THE FORM OF A LAWSUIT AND OTHER ITEMS. NOW WHILE THIS DID HAPPEN IN BROWARD COUNTY WHICH IS YOUR TERRITORY IT HAPPENED IN OUR CITY WHICH IS OUR TERRITORY. WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FIVE OF US HERE. SO WHAT I'M REQUESTING THAT WHILE YOU GO THROUGH THIS PROCESS IS THAT THE THREE POLICE OFFICERS WHO WERE INVOLVED BE REMOVED FROM WORKING IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK WHILE THIS INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING. SO THAT'S A FORMAL REQUEST. I'VE HEARD I'VE READ COMMENTS FROM MY COLLEAGUE JULIE FISHMAN REGARDING THE INCIDENT. I SPOKE TO MY COLLEAGUES COMMISSIONER BOLTON AND VICE MAYOR PLAXO AND EVERYONE EXPRESSED OUTRAGE. AND SO NOW I'M ASKING IF THERE IS A CONSENSUS FOR THIS BODY TO REMOVE THE THREE POLICE OFFICERS FROM WORKING IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK. SO THAT'S A MOTION AND I EXPECT THE SECOND. ACTUALLY THIS IS NOT SOMETHING WITHIN OUR PURVIEW. 
          THIS IS WITHIN THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE. I ASKED THE POLICE OFFICER I FORGET HER NAME CAME ON MONDAY. SHE SAID WE HAVE TO MAKE A FORMAL REQUEST THROUGH OUR CITY MANAGER AND I HAVE A LETTER HERE WITH THE FORMAL REQUEST. AND AGAIN I'M ASKING FOR CONSENSUS SHERIFF TONY. WILL YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHEN YOU SAID THAT THEY WERE ALREADY SUSPENDED WITHOUT PAY. WHAT THAT ACTUALLY MEANS. SO TO THE DEPUTIES THAT WERE PART OF THE INITIAL PART OF THE INTERNAL AFFAIRS INVESTIGATION WERE IMMEDIATELY PLACED ON RESTRICTIVE DUTY ADMINISTRATIVE DUTY WHICH TAKES THEM OUT OF IT. BUT AS WE CONTINUE TO IN FACT FIND AND LOOK AT DIFFERENT THINGS I FOUND THAT WE HAD ENOUGH SUBSTANTIAL INFORMATION TO SUSPEND THEM. AND SO THAT WAS THE ACTION I TOOK YESTERDAY WITH THE COMMISSIONER SPEAKING OF USE INCLUDING THE THIRD DEPUTY OR SO THAT WAS INVOLVED IN THE ENTIRE INCIDENT. SO AS THE I CONTINUE TO WORK THROUGH THAT OTHER DEPUTY MAY BECOME A SUBJECT OF IT BUT AT THIS POINT IN TIME THE PRIMARY DEPUTIES THAT ARE INVOLVED IN OUR I.A. ARE THE TWO THAT YOU'VE ALREADY FAMILIAR WITH. AND IN TERMS OF THE COMMENTS THAT THE COMMISSIONER MADE. LOOK I APPRECIATE IT. YOU AND I HAD A CHANCE TO SIT AND TALK FOR ABOUT TWO HOURS THE OTHER DAY AND I WOULD I'M HAPPY THAT YOU STATED THAT THAT MEETING WAS PREARRANGED IN ADVANCE BECAUSE AGAIN WE WE TAKE THINGS OUT OF CONTEXT AND CREATE THESE FORCES IN OUR HERE OWN HERE THAT OH NOW THIS IS A STRATEGIC PLAY BY THE NEW SHERIFF TO GET ALL THE BLACK ELECTED PEOPLE IN ONE ROOM. ALL RIGHT. MY FOCAL POINT WAS TO GET THESE PEOPLE IN THE ROOM A LONG TIME AGO SO THAT WE CAN UNDERSTAND THE ISSUES THAT EXIST IN OUR COMMUNITIES SPECIFICALLY WITH THE MINORITY BASE HERE. ALL RIGHT. THAT'S NOT SOME PRETEND EFFORT FOLKS THAT WERE SCHEDULED. YOU'RE HEARING IT FROM YOUR COMMISSIONER BUT IT'S GOING TO CONTINUE TO ECHO OUT THAT IT WAS OTHERWISE THE ISSUES THAT YOU ADDRESS ABOUT REMOVING DEPUTIES AND THINGS OUT OF THIS PARTICULAR CITY AND MOVING THEM FORWARD. IT'S NOT MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THAT IS WITHIN YOUR PURVIEW BUT IF IT IS AND THERE'S A LEGAL JUSTIFICATION BEHIND IT THAT THAT'S WHAT THIS COMMISSION WANTS. FINE. BUT I WILL TELL YOU THAT ESTABLISHES A VERY POOR PRECEDENT BECAUSE WHAT HAPPENS HERE IN TAMARACK WILL ECHO THROUGHOUT THE REST OF BROWARD COUNTY AND FOR EVERY TIME WE HAVE AN INCIDENT DO WE WANT OUR COMMISSIONERS AND MAYORS TO SAY TO REMOVE THE DEPUTIES WHEN WE KNOW THAT THERE'S A PROCESS IN PLACE WHEREAS IF I REMOVE THEM THEY MAY BE TERMINATED WHERE I REMOVE THEM. THEY MAY BE SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL CHARGES BECAUSE THESE ARE ALL THE CONSIDERATIONS THAT I HAVE TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT. IT'S NOT. IT'S NO LONGER JUST ABOUT THE ARREST IN ITSELF. IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT TERMINATING DEPUTIES OR WHETHER OR NOT THEY'RE GOING TO BE REMOVED. THERE'S A CRIMINAL ACT ASPECT HERE THAT THE STATE ATTORNEY IS LOOKING AT. AND WE HAD SOMETHING HAPPEN THAT HAS BEEN UNPRECEDENTED IN BROWARD COUNTY WHERE THE TYPICAL PROCESS IS FOR US TO CONDUCT OUR INTERNAL AFFAIRS FORWARDED OVER TO THE STATE ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. THE ENTIRE CASE ASPECTS I HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO BEFORE A COMMITTEE IS THAT WE'VE ESTABLISHED WITH CIVILIANS TO BE ABLE TO VOTE AND PLACE RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT DIFFERENT DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS THAT THEY SEE SUIT SUITABLE BEFORE IT FINDS ITS WAY TO MY DESK THE STATE ATTORNEY HAS JUMPED AHEAD OF THIS INVESTIGATION WHICH NEVER HAS HAPPENED AND QUITE FRANKLY I THINK IS BECAUSE THE LEVEL OF POLITICAL IMPACT AND THE CRIME THAT'S BEEN OCCURRING NOT JUST WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY BUT ACROSS THE COUNTRY. AND I THINK THAT WAS A MISTAKE. I WORK WITH MIKE. HE'S A VERY EXCEPTIONAL ATTORNEY AT WHAT HE DOES AND THE ACTIVITIES THAT WERE DONE WERE NOT WRONG. I THINK THERE WAS CONSISTENT. BUT I THINK WE ARE GETTING TO A POSITION WHERE POLITICS IS STARTING TO IMPACT JUSTICE AND 
          [00:15:06]
THERE'S A REASON WHY THE LADY JUSTICE WEARS A BLIND VEIL AND THERE'S A BALANCING SCALE BECAUSE NO ONE SUPERSEDES INCLUDING MYSELF IF I EVER VIOLATE THE LAW OR HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR VIOLATION I EXPECT THAT I WILL BE IN INTERNAL AFFAIRS. I WOULD BE IN INVESTIGATE BEING INVESTIGATED OR REMOVED BECAUSE I'M IN A POSITION WHERE WE JUST DISCOVER A GOVERNOR CAN REMOVE YOU. SO I THINK IT'S A POOR PRECEDENT TO ESTABLISH. BUT IF THIS COMMISSION AND THE MAYOR HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO REQUEST THAT AND I'M OBLIGATED TO MEET THAT NEED THEN IT WILL BE DONE. OK. SO I'M GOING TO SUBMIT IT FOR THE RECORD AND I'M GOING TO READ IT SO EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS. AND I WANT TO ASK OUR CITY ATTORNEY TO ADDRESS IT. SO THIS IS ADDRESSED TO OUR CITY MANAGER WHO IS THE CONTRACT MANAGER BETWEEN US ON THE CITY OF TAMARACK. 
          MICHAEL SKOLNIK DEAR MR. ASTONISHED I AM FORMALLY REQUESTING THAT THE THREE VSO DEPUTIES WHO RESPONDED TO THE SCENE AT MCDONALD'S ON THURSDAY APRIL 18TH 2019 BE REASSIGNED TO ANOTHER CITY. THE THREE DEPUTIES SEEN ON THE VIDEO BRUTALLY ASSAULTING AND ABUSING TWO TEENAGERS INVOLVED IN THE INCIDENT THAT HAS GAINED NATIONAL ATTENTION SHALL BE PROHIBITED FROM WORKING IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK. THE RECKLESS AND DANGEROUS BEHAVIOR OF THE THREE DEPUTIES ON THE SCENE IS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME PERSONALLY AND TO THE RESIDENTS. WE STRIVE TO PROTECT AND SERVE. PLEASE FOLLOW UP WITH SHERIFF GREGORY TONY AND RESPOND WITHIN FIVE BUSINESS DAYS SO MR. CITY ATTORNEY PLEASE ADDRESS THAT THROUGH THE CHAIR. MR. CITY ATTORNEY WILL YOU PLEASE NOW IT IS. THANK YOU. MORNING SHERIFF. WELCOME SIR. WELCOME TO TAMARACK MAYOR COMMISSION TO THE COMMISSIONER. COUPLE OF OBSERVATIONS THAT MAY HELP YOU. NUMBER ONE IS THIS IS A MANAGER CONDITION GOVERNMENTAL FORM UNDER THE CHARTER. CITY MANAGER IS THE DAILY OPERATIONS MANAGER OF THE CITY TAMARACK. 
          WE ALL KNOW THAT YOU'RE THE POLICYMAKERS AND LEGISLATORS ON THE CITY COMMISSION. 
          THE CONTRACT WHERE CONTRACT CITY BSA WAS A CONTRACT WITH CONTRACT WITH THE CITY TAMARACK WHICH OPERATIONALIZE AS THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IN THE CITY. YOU CAN FORMULATE A MOTION TO REQUEST WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR IN THE CONTEXT OF BEING A POLICYMAKER BUT THE REQUEST MUST BE TO THE MANAGER BECAUSE THE MANAGER OPERATES THE CITY YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO MAKE THE MOTION. IT'S A LEGALLY JUSTIFIED MOTION AND IN THAT CONTEXT BUT TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU CHOOSE TO IMPLEMENT THAT MOTION THE MANAGER WOULD BE THE SOURCE THROUGH WHICH THAT DISCUSSION WOULD HAVE TO OCCUR. 
          SECONDARILY THE SHERIFF HAS BEFORE YOU THE SHERIFF CAN RESPOND ON HIS OWN HIS OWN INDEPENDENT LEGAL RIGHTS AS A CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICER AND CAN RESPOND TO WHATEVER REQUEST YOU MAY MAKE TO THE MANAGER FOR THIS PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 
          HAVING JUST SEEN THE LETTER THIS MORNING AND HAVING UNDERSTOOD YOUR REQUEST IS IT A FROM THE ROBERT'S RULES OF ORDER PARLIAMENTARY CORRECT IT IS YOU CAN MAKE THE MOTION YOU CAN ASK YOUR COLLEAGUES TO SUPPORT IT THE MANAGER WOULD HAVE TO ALSO BE RESPONSIVE THAT REQUEST. SO AGAIN I'M MAKING THE MOTION THAT THE THREE OFFICERS BE REMOVED FROM WORKING IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK UNTIL THE INTERNAL INVESTIGATION THAT THE SHERIFF IS CONDUCTING IS OVER. CAN I GET A SECOND. SECOND FOR DISCUSSION I'M GOING TO ALSO ASK AGAIN FOR CLARIFICATION PLEASE SHERIFF TONY IF THEY ARE SUSPENDED DOES THAT MEAN THEY'RE NOT AT WORK. CORRECT. SO THEY'RE NOT WORKING IN OUR CITY AT THIS TIME. CORRECT. SO AT THIS TIME WE ALREADY HAVE TWO OFFICERS SUMI DEPUTIES WHO ARE ALREADY SUSPENDED AND NOT AT WORK IN OUR CITY DURING THIS TIME. CORRECT. SO THEN YOUR MOTION ACTUALLY IS ONLY FOR THE REMAINING PERSON. I'LL REVISE MY MOTION FOR THE REMAINING PERSON IS THERE STILL A SECOND. 
          IS THERE A SECOND AS AMENDED SECOND AS AMENDED OPEN FOR DISCUSSION. MADAM MAYOR IF I MAY. YES. YOU ARE STARTING TO DRAWN INTO LEGAL ASPECTS THAT ARE OUTSIDE OF WHY I'M HERE TODAY. AND IF YOUR COMMISSION. I MEAN NO DISRESPECT NEED TO WORK THIS THING OUT IN TERMS OF WHAT THE RECOURSE IS GOING TO BE THAT'S GOING TO HAVE TO BE DONE WHILE I'M NOT HERE. UNDERSTOOD. I KNOW YOU ONLY HAVE FOUR MINUTES LEFT I GUESS. AND I DID SPEAK WITH ME ABOUT HIS TIMEFRAME AND I'M GRATEFUL THAT HE'S HERE OR WE ARE GRATEFUL THAT HE IS HERE. AND BUT I DO KNOW YOU NEED TO GO. BUT I DO THINK THAT THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT ARE IMPORTANT ESPECIALLY SINCE I'M NOT ASKING YOU TO RESPOND TODAY. I UNDERSTAND WHAT'S RIGHT. BUT I HAVE SOME COMMENTS THAT I WOULD LIKE HIM WHILE YOU ARE HERE BECAUSE I DO HAVE CONCERNS OF THIS BODY ENCROACHING ON YOUR POWER. THIS IS WITHIN YOUR PURVIEW THEM WHICH IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY THE CITY OF TAMARA HIRES A VENDOR. IT IS NOT. IT IS OUR POWER FOR DISCUSSION. I HAVE NOT READ THE CONTRACT SO I DON'T KNOW IF I NECESSARILY AGREE. AND I WOULD WANT TO SEE WHAT OUR CONTRACT SAYS WITHIN THIS. I KNOW WE RALLY ATTORNEY. COMMISSIONER GALEN I GIVE YOU THE RESPECT FOR YOU TO SPEAK. YOU'RE GONNA GIVE ME THE SAME SO THAT IS ONE OF MY CONCERNS ABOUT WHAT PART OF OUR POWER WE ARE ENCROACHING INTO YOURS JUST AS MUCH AS WE WOULD NEVER INTERFERE WITH THE POWER THAT IS ENCROACHING FOR THE 
          [00:20:01]
SCHOOL BOARD OR THE COUNTY. AND AGAIN THIS IS AN ITEM THAT IS HIGHLY POLITICIZED AND CHARGED SO TO MY COLLEAGUES BEFORE WE MAKE THIS VOTE. I DO WANT TO JUST CLARIFY WITH OUR CITY ATTORNEY I AM PRETTY SURE YOU DON'T HAVE OUR CONTRACT MEMORIZED BUT ARE THESE. ARE THESE WITHIN OUR PARAMETERS OR IS THIS A MOTION THAT IS MADE WITHOUT ANY POWER BEHIND IT. THE MOTIONS OF PROPER MOTION WHICH THE COMMISSION AS A POLICY BOARD CAN MAKE YOUR CITY MANAGER IS THE CONTRACT MANAGER FOR THE BSL CONTRACT. SO THE REQUEST IS REALLY THROUGH THE MANAGER TO THE SHERIFF AND HOW THAT'S ARTICULATED IN PUBLIC AND OTHERWISE IN WRITING IS BETWEEN ALL OF YOU AND THE MANAGER AND THE SHERIFF AND THE SHERIFF NEED NOT PHYSICALLY RESPOND THIS MORNING IS NOT HIS LEGAL OBLIGATION TO DO THAT. OK I WILL ASK MY COLLEAGUES ARE THERE ANY COMMENTS I SEE THAT THERE ARE NONE. I WILL ASSUME THEN MAKE ONE MORE COMMENT. I SEE THAT THE THIRD OFFICER HAS NOT BEEN BROUGHT INTO THIS. AND SO I PERSONALLY DO HAVE TROUBLE WITH CASTING A BROAD NET AT THIS TIME AND INTERFERING WITH YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES. I WOULD HATE THAT IF ANY SINGLE EMPLOYEE IN OUR CITY HAD TROUBLE ANYWHERE ELSE AND SOME OTHER POLITICAL BODY DECIDED TO COME HERE AND TELL US AS A COMMISSION HOW WE ARE SUPPOSED TO HANDLE PROTECTING OUR EMPLOYEES AND OUR PEOPLE. SO PERSONALLY I'M NOT GOING TO MY TONE ANY DIFFERENTLY. I JUST HAD TROUBLE TO THAT MOTION. SO THAT IS MY COMMENT FOR THE RECORD. COMMISSIONER GUYS DO YOU WISH TO SPEAK AGAIN. SHERIFF TONY REALLY DOES HAVE TO LEAVE. I UNDERSTAND AND I RESPECT THAT. AND WE ARE NOT ENCROACHING WE HAVE A CONTRACT WITH THE CITY WITH WITH BROWARD SHERIFF'S OFFICE. SO WE ARE WELL WITHIN OUR RIGHT TO MAKE THAT REQUEST AS I FORGET THE OFFICER'S NAME WHO SPOKE AT OUR WORKSHOP ON MONDAY. MAJOR URSA MAJOR RUSSO SAID THAT IT IS WITHIN OUR PURVIEW TO MAKE THAT REQUEST TO THE CITY MANAGER AND THAT'S WHAT I'M DOING. AND THE CITY ATTORNEY CONFIRMED THAT IT'S CORRECT. AN IMPORTANT POINT VERY CLEAR. SO WHILE WE HAVE VERY LIMITED TIME LEFT WHILE WE HAVE THE SHERIFF HERE COMMISSIONER BOLTON THINKING ABOUT AMIR BEFORE WE MAKE THIS VOTE I THINK THAT IT IS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO SAY SHERIFF TOLD ME THAT WHEN WHEN WE MET YOU YOU WERE VERY ARTICULATE. YOU PRESENTED THE INFORMATION TO US IN A WAY THAT WE DID NOT SEE BEFORE. AND TO THAT POINT I THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT AND THANK YOU FOR COMING HERE THIS MORNING TO ADDRESS THE CITY COMMISSION AS THE REST OF THE WORLD PERHAPS SAW. I SAW THE VIDEO AS WELL AND THE VIDEO WAS WAS HEARTBREAKING WHEN IT WHEN I FIRST GOT THE VIDEO. I COULDN'T LOOK AT IT. I TURNED IT AWAY. IT WAS NOT UNTIL PEOPLE WERE MAKING COMMENTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA THAT I ACTUALLY HAD TO WATCH THE VIDEO. AND AS A FATHER OF ONE SON IT CHANGES THE WAY YOU LOOK AT HOW OUR CHILDREN ARE ARE TREATED. AND SO THIS THIS YOUNG MAN WAS WAS PEPPER SPRAYED WHILE HE WAS WALKING AWAY WHILE HE WAS WALKING AWAY. HE WAS THEN GRABBED AND PUSHED TO THE GROUND AND WHILE HE WAS PUSHED TO THE GROUND HE WAS STRICKEN MANY TIMES. AND SO I DON'T SEE ANY REASON WHY THE THIRD DEPUTY SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED. THEY WERE ALL ABUSING THIS YOUNG MAN. AND I'M JUST CURIOUS AS TO WHY TWO WERE REMOVED AND ONE WAS NOT. AND THAT WOULD FRAME MY DECISION TODAY OR RESPONSE. SO AGAIN WE OPEN UP AN INTERNAL AFFAIRS INVESTIGATION ON THE TWO DEPUTIES THAT WE HAD A CRYSTAL CLEAR INVOLVEMENT ON THE ENTIRE ASPECT IN TERMS OF THE ARRESTS AND EVERYTHING ELSE BECAUSE WE ARE IN ACTIVELY INVESTIGATING THIS DAY DOES NOT MEAN MORE DEPUTIES ARE NOT GOING TO BE INCLUDED IN THIS THING. SO TO SPECULATE THAT WE WE'RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE TOTALITY OF CIRCUMSTANCES OR EVEN PERHAPS IGNORING THAT ANOTHER DEPUTY MAY BE INVOLVED IN HAVE TO BE EXAMINED. THAT'S FALSE. I ORDER THE. 
          EXCUSE ME SIR. THIS IS PART OF THE ENTIRE PROCESS. WE ARE LOOKING AT EVERY SINGLE BODY CAM VIDEO FOR EVERY SINGLE DEPUTY THAT WAS ON ON DUTY. WE HAVE TO LOOK AT THE MCDONALD'S VIDEO. THERE IS A TON OF THINGS THAT NEED TO BE DONE INCLUDING WITNESS STATEMENTS AND EVERYTHING ELSE. SO DON'T JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS AND ASSUME THAT THAT IS NOT GOING TO BE A CONSIDERATION. SHERIFF TONY I'VE I'VE I'VE HEARD YOUR YOUR YOUR ANSWER BUT IT DOES NOT NECESSARILY ANSWER MY QUESTION. THERE WERE 
          [00:25:01]
THREE DEPUTIES TWO WERE REMOVED. ALL THREE WERE WERE ONSITE WHEN THIS YOUNG MAN. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND USE OF FORCE POLICY AND I DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO EXPLAIN IT. THE FACTS STILL STAND. IT'S AN INTERNAL AFFAIRS AND I GAVE YOU A CHANCE. I GAVE YOU THE THE THE THE OPTION TO SPEAK COMMIT. I HOPE THAT YOU ALLOW ME TO RESPOND. THREE DEPUTIES WERE ONSITE. TWO WERE REMOVED AND THERE IS A THIRD DEPUTY THAT WAS NOT REMOVED. BEFORE I MAKE MY DECISION TODAY I WOULD LIKE YOU TO GIVE ME SOME FRAMEWORK AS TO WHY THAT DEPUTY WAS NOT REMOVED. I'M NOT HERE TO ON UNDER NO FORM OF OBLIGATION. I'M HERE BECAUSE I WANT TO BE HERE. AND SO AS MY GUYS INVESTIGATE THIS PRACTICE ALONG WITH THE STATE ATTORNEYS FORGIVE ME BECAUSE WHAT YOU ARE TELLING ME IS THAT I AM COMPELLED TO GIVE YOU AN ANSWER RELATED TO AN INVESTIGATIVE PRACTICE AND I AM NOT. WELL THAT IS THAT IS HOW I'M ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION AS A TOP SHERIFF OF BROWARD COUNTY I WOULD HOPE THAT YOU'D WANT TO ANSWER THIS THAT IS JUST NOT. IT'S NOT ABOUT THE TYPE OF SHARES AND I OF THIS IS AND THIS IS THE CONFLICT ASPECT THAT I WON'T ACCEPT. I WILL NOT STAND HERE AND BE HELD AS IF I AM A SUSPECT OF ANYTHING. I'M GOING TO HOLD MY PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE IF THEY STEPPED OUT OF LINE. I DON'T CARE FOR THREE DEPUTIES OR 35. THEY WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE BUT I WILL NOT BE. I WILL NOT STAND HERE AND BE LECTURED TO ABOUT THE LAWS OF INVESTIGATIVE PRACTICES BECAUSE NO ONE UP THERE HAVE THE EXPERIENCE THAT I HAVE OR MY STAFF. SO SIR YOU'RE OUT OF LINE WITH THE CONTEXT OF WHAT YOU ARE DEMANDING FOR ME AND I WON'T ACCEPT IT AND THERE ARE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS YOU HAVE FOR ME. THAT IS THE SAME AGGRESSION THAT YOUR OFFICERS USED WHEN THEY PUSHED ONE OF FOUR YOUNG PEOPLE TO THE GROUND. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN THIS IS THE SAME TYPE OF LEADERSHIP DISPLAYING YOUR OFFICERS. I WILL VOTE NOW BECAUSE YOU HAVE GIVEN ME ALL THE ANSWERS I NEED. THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENT. YOU'RE WRONG. 
          SHERIFF TONY THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE TODAY. I'M SORRY THEY HAVE TO RUN. I KNOW THERE ARE SOME OTHERS WHO MAY WANT TO HAVE SOME TIME WITH YOU BUT I KNOW YOU'LL MAKE TIME AT END WHEN YOU CAN IN TERMS OF THIS COMMUNITY. YOU WILL HAVE YOUR TURN TO SPEAK TO ME. I'M NOT BLINDSIDED TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU HAVE YOUR OWN VOICE THAT YOU WANT TO ACCOUNT FOR AND HAVE SOME DEMANDS BUT IT WILL BE DONE IN A RIGHT SETTING. I PROMISE YOU THAT EVERYBODY BEHIND ME BECAUSE IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT THE POLITICIANS UP HERE IS ABOUT YOU. THANK YOU MA'AM. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. TRAVEL SAFELY SIR. TONY THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE THIS MORNING AS THANK YOU LADIES AND GENTLEMEN FROM THE COMMISSION IS ANYTHING NEW THAT YOU'D LIKE TO ADD BEFORE WE GO FORWARD SAYING THAT THERE'S NOTHING LEFT. I DO ALSO WANT TO MAKE ONE COMMENT AS MUCH AS I DO SUPPORT THE ELECTED BODIES THAT WE HAVE TO MAKE THEIR DECISIONS AND DO THEIR PROCEDURES. IT IS NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM SAYING THAT I THINK THAT ANY UNUSED UNJUSTIFIED FORCE SHOULD EVER BE USED AGAINST A CHILD. PLEASE KNOW THAT THAT'S NOT MY INTENTION. I FEEL FOR THE CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES VERY MUCH AND I AM VERY APPRECIATIVE OF OUR SCHOOL BOARD WHO IS JUMPING AHEAD AND DOING THINGS TO HELP US TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR CHILDREN FEEL SAFE AS WELL AND ARE DOING WHAT THEY NEED TO DO TO PROTECT THEM. WE'VE HAD VERY GOOD CONVERSATIONS WITH THE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS AND WITH THE PRINCIPAL OF THE SCHOOL AND WORKING TWO MATTERS SO WE DON'T HAVE THIS INCIDENT EVER HAPPEN AGAIN AND TRYING TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN. SO I DO WANT EVERYBODY TO BE AWARE OF THAT MATTER. MICHELLE GOLLAND YOU HAVE SOMETHING NEW TO ADD BEFORE WE VOTE. YES OUR TWO OUR TWO SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS IN THE ROOM HAVE MADE COMMENTS REGARDING THE INCIDENT DECRYING THE ABUSE AND TREATMENT OF THAT CHILD. SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER OSGOOD THE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER ALHADEFF OUR BROWARD COUNTY MAYOR MADE A COMMENT ABOUT IT OUR BROWARD COUNTY VICE MAYOR. BUT YOU AS THE MAYOR OF THE CITY OF TAMARACK I HAVE NOT HEARD OR SEEN A WRITTEN COMMENT FOR YOU. DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENT FOR THE CHILD FOR THE FAMILY FOR THE RESIDENTS THAT YOU LEAVE FOR THE STATE THAT YOU LEAD REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND THE BEHAVIOR OF THE POLICE OFFICERS. THEY'VE ALL MADE THEIR PUBLIC COMMENTS CRITICIZING THE BEHAVIOR OF THE POLICE OFFICERS AS OUR COLLEAGUE JULIE FISHMAN AND COMMISSIONER BOLTON VICE MAYOR MICHAEL I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING FROM YOU. DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS REGARDING THE BEHAVIOR OF THE POLICE OFFICERS. WELL YES I JUST MADE MY COMMENT. COMMISSIONER YELLEN AND I AM NOT GOING TO LET YOU POLITICIZE ME BECAUSE I'M NOT POLITICIZING YOU. EVERYONE MADE A PUBLIC COMMENT THAT I FIND. AND I'VE NOT SEEN YOUR PUBLIC COMMENT. I HAVE MADE MY COMMENT AND I HAVE SPOKEN TO INDIVIDUALS AND I'VE DONE WHAT I'VE NEEDED TO DO. I'VE SPOKEN TO THE MAYOR OF THE COUNTY AND I HAVE SPOKEN WITH. WHAT IS YOUR COMMENT TO THE COMMITTEE HAVE JUST MADE MY COMMENTS THE COMMUNITY COMMISSIONER GOLLAN YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIKE IT. I DO NOT LIKE WHAT I SAW. BUT I ALSO KNOW THAT I AM NOT THE JUSTICE AND THE JURY ON THAT ONE. IT WILL GO THROUGH THE PROPER PROCEDURES JUST LIKE I WOULD EXPECT ANYBODY TO HAVE THEIR JUST DAY. AND I AM GRATEFUL THAT THE CHILDREN ARE NOT HURT WORSE. I AM SORRY THAT THEY ARE HURT AT ALL. SO IT IS IN THE REALM OF WHAT'S BEING HANDLED NOW AND IT IS NOT FOR ME TO STAND UP HERE AND TRY TO PROVE ANYTHING TO YOU. I'M ASKING YOU THINK TO ME IN LAW SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS MADE A COMMENT THAT MAY OR MAY BE COMING IN AND I'M THE MAYOR OF THE COUNTY MADE A COMMENT. YOU'VE MADE NO COMMENT AND I'M 
          [00:30:02]
CALLING ROLL CALL THE ROLL IS COMING OUT. LET ME COMING OUT. HOLD ON FOR THE RECORD. YES IT IS CORRECT. COMMISSIONER FISHMAN. COMMISSIONER GALEN. YES. VICE MAYOR FLACCO. YES. COMMISSIONER BOLTON. YES. MAYOR GOMEZ. NO. MOTION CARRIED. 
          MADAM MAYOR. FOR THE RECORD THE LETTER THAT WAS SUBMITTED BY COMMISSIONER GUILLEN AS PART OF THE RECORD WITH THE CLERK AND IT IS TRANSMITTED TO THE MANAGER ACCORDINGLY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND AGAIN LADIES AND GENTLEMEN I APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE AT THIS TIME. WE DO HAVE OUR SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS. I HAVE NO. I KNOW YOUR TIME IS TIGHT AS WELL. BUT IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME AND SAY ANYTHING YOU'RE MORE THAN WELCOME TO. IF YOU DO NOT THERE'S NO PRESSURE TO DO SO. AGAIN PLEASE I'M NOT TRYING TO PRESSURE YOU TO DO SO. I JUST WANT YOU TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY IF YOU SO WISH. HI L'OREAL HAD F 8 6 7 5 WATERCRESS CIRCLE W SPARKLING. THANK YOU FOR HAVING US HERE TODAY AS YOUR SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER I WAS VERY UPSET OF WHAT TRANSPIRED AT THE MCDONALD'S AS YOUR SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER THOUGH I LIKE TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH THE COMMISSION TO FIGURE OUT WAYS THAT WE CAN PROVIDE SERVICES OR THINGS FOR OUR STUDENTS TO DO AFTER SCHOOL AND LOOK FOR DIFFERENT WAYS THAT WE CAN ENGAGE ACTIVITIES AFTER SCHOOL AT THE SCHOOL AND THEN ALSO WHAT WE CAN PROVIDE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. AND I THINK WE HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER TO REACH AND MEET THOSE NEEDS FOR OUR STUDENTS. AND I THINK THAT IT'S ALSO VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE ACTUALLY SIT DOWN AND TALK TO THE STUDENTS AND FIGURE OUT WHAT THEIR NEEDS ARE AND WHAT THEY WANT TO SEE HAPPEN AND ENGAGE THE STUDENTS BECAUSE WE CAN PROVIDE YOU KNOW A HUNDRED ACTIVITIES FOR THEM. BUT IF THEY'RE NOT ACTIVELY INVOLVED WITH THOSE ACTIVITIES THEY'RE NOT GOING TO WANT TO GO. SO I RECOMMEND THAT WE SIT DOWN WITH THE STUDENTS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THEIR NEEDS ARE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH DR. OSGOOD DR. ROSALIND OSGOOD BROWARD COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD DISTRICT FIVE AND ANOTHER SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER THAT REPRESENTS PART OF TAMARACK. GOOD MORNING TO THE COMMISSION TO ALL OF YOU. AND I HAVE BEEN VERY VOCAL ABOUT MY VIEWS. I'M OUTRAGED. I'M DISTURBED. I'M EVEN MORE OUTRAGED AFTER BEING HERE THIS MORNING. IT IS NOT OK FOR SOMEONE TO ABUSE OUR CHILDREN. OUR CHILDREN HAVE A RIGHT TO BE AT MCDONALD'S AND ANYWHERE ELSE THAT THEY WANT TO GO TOGETHER AND NO ONE SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM ESPECIALLY NOT A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. AND AS ELECTED OFFICIALS WE ALL HAVE TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE PEOPLE THAT WORK UNDER US. I'VE SPENT THE LAST YEAR WITH THE CHIEF OFFICER OF THE SCHOOL BOARD'S JOB BEING ON THE LINE AND PEOPLE CALLING FOR HIM TO RESIGN. AND HE WASN'T EVEN ON SITE WHEN AN INCIDENT HAPPENED. AND TO HAVE OFFICERS AGGRESSIVELY BEAT A STUDENT IN THAT WAY THIS IS BECOMING THE NORM IN BROWARD COUNTY. WE HAD AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN GIRL BEAT UP AND CALL SPRINGS A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO 14 YEAR OLD. NOW WE GOT AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN KID AT MCDONALD'S TO BEAT UP. WE HAVE SOMEBODY SHOOT UP A SCHOOL OF 17 KIDS AND NEGATIVE ESCORT TO JAIL. SO I'M NOT HAPPY. PEOPLE THAT LOOK LIKE ME ARE NOT HAPPY AND WE'RE NOT GOING TO STOP SPEAKING OUT. CERTAINLY WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE OUR KIDS TO RESPOND IN A PEACEFUL WAY TO NOT BE OUT IN OPEN AREAS PROTESTING BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT THAT AGGRESSION WHICH IS BECOMING THE NORM NOW I GUESS FOR THOSE PEOPLE IN THE GREEN UNIFORMS. I MEAN I SAW IT HERE TODAY AND I KNOW THAT OFTENTIMES EMPLOYEES TAKE ON THE SPIRIT OF THEIR LEADER. BUT WE HAVE TO BE MINDFUL OF OUR STUDENTS TO TRY TO GET THEM IN SETTINGS WHERE WE'RE TALKING TO THEM ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING BECAUSE THEY ARE OUTRAGED. THEY ARE ORGANIZING. THEY WANT TO PROTEST AND WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE THEM OUT IN AN OPEN PUBLIC AREA THAT THEY ARE IN HARM'S WAY. SO I WOULD ENCOURAGE US ALL TO START HAVING MEETINGS WITH STUDENTS IN FORMS IN A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT THAT WE'RE ABLE TO HELP GUIDE THEIR DECISIONS. 
          [00:35:01]
AND I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS COMMISSION. COMMISSIONER GALEN AND THE REST OF YOU FOR TAKING THE BOLD STAND YOU TOOK TODAY AND SAYING YOU DON'T WANT SOMEONE WORKING IN YOUR CITY THAT'S GOING TO ABUSE KIDS. I KNOW DUE PROCESS WE USE IT ALL THE TIME IN GOVERNMENT BUT WHEN SOMEBODY IS A DANGER YOU HAVE TO RESPOND IMMEDIATELY. AND THERE ARE THINGS YOU CAN DO WHILE THEY'RE GOING THROUGH THE DUE PROCESS. SO I'M GOING TO ENCOURAGE THE COMMUNITY TO KEEP SPEAKING ABOUT ABOUT YOUR EXPECTATIONS. WE WON'T BE BULLIED. WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANYBODY COME INTO OUR COUNTY IN ANY POSITION AND BULLY US AND TELL US THAT WE CAN'T SPEAK OUT WE CAN'T USE OUR VOICES WE CAN'T USE SOCIAL MEDIA WE HAVE TO STAND UP FOR OUR CHILDREN WE HAVE TO LET THEM KNOW THAT WE ARE GOING TO PROTECT THEM AND WE HAVE TO DEMAND THAT PEOPLE THAT COMMIT CHILD ABUSE THAT THEY GET CHARGE AND THAT THEY'RE HELD ACCOUNTABLE EVEN IF THEY WEAR A UNIFORM. 
          THANK YOU DR. OZ GOOD AND I'M GOING TO ALSO MAKE SURE I CLARIFY SOMETHING. I IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM BELIEVE IN CHILD ABUSE. WHAT I BELIEVE IN IS THE PROCESS AND THAT I BELIEVE IN THE SHERIFF WHEN HE SAYS HE'S GOING TO DO HIS JOB. I HAVE TO HAVE FAITH I HAVE THAT FAITH HE'S GOING TO DO HIS JOB. I HAVE TO HAVE FAITH THAT ALL OF US ARE GOING TO DO HIS JOB. AND SO THAT IS WHERE I COME FROM. I WOULD HATE THE IDEA THAT ANY CHILD IS ABUSED EVER IN HOME ON THE STREET BY SOMEONE THEY LOVE SOMEONE THEY DON'T KNOW. SO THAT IS WHERE MY PERSPECTIVE IS COMING FROM. AND IT IS A VERY NARROW WAY TO LOOK AT IT. IT MAY NOT BE APPRECIATED BY ALL. BUT THAT IS WHERE I HAVE TO BELIEVE AND I DO BELIEVE IN THE COMMUNITY AND I KNOW FROM MY CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU WITH YOU BOTH. AND ALSO MY MEETING WITH PRINCIPAL RAMOS AND THE ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL CROSSMAN MONDAY. I KNOW THAT YOU ARE ARRANGING SMALL INDIVIDUAL MEETINGS WITH THE CHILDREN OF THE SCHOOL AND WORKING ON THINGS TO TALK WITH THEM AND SEE WHAT WE COULD DO FOR AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS. WE HAVE A SITUATION WHERE THE PLAZA IS NOT IT'S SET IN THE CITY OF TAMARA. THE SCHOOL IS IN CORAL SPRINGS AND IT'S NOT CITY PROPERTY. WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE THINGS BETTER. AND ALSO WE'RE WHAT WE UNDERSTAND IS THAT A LOT OF THE CHILDREN ARE WAITING FOR A SCHOOL BUS. SO I'VE ALREADY HAD THE PLEASURE OF SPEAKING TO COMMISSIONER DEAN. I HAVEN'T HAD YET THE CHANCE IS SPEAKING TO MAYOR BOGAN THOUGH I SPOKE WITH HIM THIS WEEKEND AND HE DID ASSURE ME THAT WHATEVER WE NEED WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO DO. SO WE'RE LOOKING AT THE FACT THAT THAT SCHOOL BUS. IT'S NOT A BUS IT'S A CITY IT'S A COUNTY BUS. KIDS GET OUT AT TWO FORTY FIVE. THE BUS THAT THEY NEED TO GET ON IS AT THREE FORTY FIVE THAT'S AN HOUR. SO WE ARE WORKING ON SEEING WHAT WE COULD DO ABOUT TIMING SO ON THAT NOTE I WOULD LIKE TO CALL UP COMMISSIONER JUDY. 
          GOOD MORNING MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION. I TOO WAS SHOCKED AND HORRIFIED WHEN I SAW THAT VIDEO THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY I THINK WE HAVE A DUTY AS ADULTS IN OUR COMMUNITY TO PROTECT CHILDREN OF ALL RACES OF ALL COLORS OF ALL RELIGIOUS BELIEFS. 
          AND I THINK THAT THE SAME WAY WE SAW OUR COMMUNITY COME TOGETHER FOR THE STUDENTS IN PARKLAND I THINK THAT THE COMMUNITY NEEDS TO COME TOGETHER FOR THIS ISSUE. I DON'T THINK IT SHOULD BE AT ALL ACCEPTABLE OR AT ALL SOMETHING WHERE WE CAN FIND ANYTHING ACCEPTABLE ABOUT A YOUNG BLACK CHILD BEING AGGRESSIVELY ARRESTED AND BEATEN IN THAT WAY. AND I SUPPORT A FULL INVESTIGATION IN THAT AND I AM HOPEFUL THAT THE PEOPLE THAT WE SEE ON VIDEO ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. AND I'M GRATIFIED THAT THE STATE ATTORNEY DROPPED THE CHARGES AGAINST THE TWO STUDENTS AT THIS TIME. I JUST DON'T THINK THAT THERE'S ANYTHING PRODUCTIVE TO COME OUT OF THAT. I DID SPEAK TO THE MAYOR AND I'VE SPOKE TO SOME OF THE OTHER COMMISSIONERS. THERE ISN'T A SLIGHT ISSUE WITH THE BUS THAT COMES IN THAT AREA AND I'M REACHING OUT TO THE TO THE BROWARD COUNTY TRANSIT. I SENT AN E-MAIL TO CHRIS WALTON THIS MORNING I EXPECT TO SPEAK TO HIM BECAUSE THERE IS THE DOWNTIME OF WHEN THAT BUS COMES TO THAT AREA AND IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE PROACTIVELY TO HELP IN THIS SITUATION. I WANT TO TRY AND BE A PART OF THAT. AND JUST TO REITERATE THAT AS YOUR COUNTY COMMISSIONER FOR PART OF THE CITY OF TAMARACK I'M HERE TO ASSIST YOU IN ANY WAY THAT I CAN. BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO ALL OUR CHILDREN IN BROWARD COUNTY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IS THERE ANOTHER ELECTED OFFICIAL IN THE ROOM THAT I HAVE MISSED. THERE IS NOT. OK. THANK YOU. WE ACTUALLY ARE AT THE END OF THIS PARTICULAR ITEM. I DO SEE THAT TWO OF MY COLLEAGUES WISH TO MAKE A COMMENT. AND SO I WILL LET THAT HAPPEN. THIS IS A LITTLE OUT OF OUR NORMAL 
          [00:40:06]
PROCEDURES SO PLEASE FORGIVE. PLEASE MAKE YOUR COMMENTS AND WE WILL MOVE ON TO THE BUSINESS OF THE DAY. COMMISSIONER GALLOP FIRST I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER LORI OUT HALF WHEN I EXPRESS MY CONDOLENCES FOR YOUR LOSS. I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR TAKING THAT ENERGY AND DOING SOMETHING POSITIVE WITH IT IN YOUR ROLE AS A SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER. I GREW UP IN A TOUGH NEIGHBORHOOD IN BROOKLYN NEW YORK MY FRESHMAN YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL I WITH THE CANARSIE HIGH SCHOOL WHERE WE HAD METAL DETECTORS TO KEEP GUNS FROM COMING INTO SCHOOLS. SO WHAT HAPPENED IN PARKLAND. WE TRIED TO AVOID IT. BACK IN 1989 WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL BY HAVING METAL DETECTORS. 
          IT'S A SHAME THAT WE HAVE TO HAVE THESE KIND OF MEASURES IN OUR SCHOOLS WHICH IS WHY I'M AGAINST. I HAVE SOME RESERVATIONS ABOUT SOME OF OUR GUN LAWS SO I'M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS AND I THANK YOU FOR FOR DOING SOMETHING POSITIVE WITH IT. SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER OSGOOD EVEN THOUGH WE GREW UP IN DIFFERENT CITIES IT WAS THE SAME TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. BUT YOU KNOW WE REALLY HAVE TO COME UP WITH SOME SOLUTIONS FOR OUR COMMUNITY FOR OUR KIDS AND ARRESTING KIDS FOR MINOR ISSUES IS NOT THE SOLUTION. I THINK WE YOU KNOW KIDS FIGHT. YOU KNOW BEFORE YOU ROLL ANOTHER PRESCHOOL PROGRAM THEY FIGHT. AND I WOULD RATHER KIDS FIGHT WITH THEIR FISTS THAN BRING KNIVES AND GUNS TO SCHOOL. SO LET'S NOT LET'S NOT CRIMINALIZE THESE KIND OF ACTIONS. LET'S MAKE SURE THAT KIDS LEARN LESSONS FIND MORE POSITIVE WAYS TO RESOLVE THEIR THEIR DIFFERENCES. BUT LET'S NOT CRIMINALIZE KIDS FOR DOING WHAT'S NORMAL BY TEENAGERS. THAT'S MY COMMENT. THANK YOU MR. GALLANT. MR. BOLTON I THINK YOU'VE MET A MAYOR TO THE EXTENT THAT COMMISSIONER GUILLEN MADE A COMMENT MADE A MOTION AND MOTION WAS CARRIED AND THE MAJORITY OF THE CITY COMMISSION CARRIED THAT MOTION. I WOULD LIKE TO ASK. NOW THIS CITY ATTORNEY OR THE CITY MANAGER WHAT NOW HAPPENS. I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU EXPLAINED THE PROCESS WOULD KIND OF EXPLAIN THE PROCESS NOW IN LAYMAN'S TERMS FOR FOR ALL OF US WHAT NOW HAPPENED. DOES OUR DECISION BEAR WEIGHT AND NOW THE CITY MANAGER HAS TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH APPROPRIATE ACTIONS IN REMOVING THE 3RD DEPUTY. JUST PLEASE LET US UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENS FROM HERE. 
          I WOULD NOT AND I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DID NOT ACKNOWLEDGE DR. OSGOOD THIS MORNING. 
          THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR COMING AND SPEAKING SO ELOQUENTLY AND PASSIONATELY TO OUR COMMISSION AND TO YOU AS WELL. REPRESENTATIVE LOWRIE COMING THIS MORNING AS WELL AND TO YOU COMMISSIONER ARE YOU DOING. YOU'RE ALWAYS HERE YOUR FAMILY. 
          THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR BEING HERE. A CHILD WAS WAS SHOVED TO THE GROUND AND HE WAS ABUSED BY THREE DEPUTIES. AND TAMARA HAS SPOKEN AND WE WANT ANSWERS. I HAVE A DEGREE IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE AND THROUGH MY STUDIES I UNDERSTAND THAT THE COURT SYSTEM IS NOT DOES NOT TREAT CHILDREN LIKE THEY'RE ADULTS. AND THIS CHILD WAS NOT EVEN TREATED LIKE AN ADULT. HE WAS TREATED LIKE TRASH. AND SO OUR COMMUNITY HAS SPOKEN. OUR COMMISSION HAS SPOKEN. AND SO NOW I WANT TO HEAR THE PROCESS GOING FORWARD FROM YOU MR. CITY ATTORNEY AND FROM YOU MR. CITY MANAGER. THANK YOU SO MUCH MAYOR MAYOR RESPOND. YES AND THEN PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VICE MAYOR DOES HAVE A COMMENT. SURE. THE LETTER THAT COMMISSIONER YELLEN DRAFTED DATED APRIL 24TH IS DIRECTED NOT TO THE COMMISSION BUT TO THE CITY MANAGER. AND THE REQUEST IS SPECIFICALLY THE FOLLOWING. I'M FORMALLY REQUESTING THAT THE THREE VSO DEPUTIES WHO RESPONDED TO THE SCENE AT MCDONALD'S ON THURSDAY APRIL 18 20 19 BE REASSIGNED TO ANOTHER CITY. THE THREE DEPUTIES SEEN ON THE VIDEO BRUTALLY ASSAULTING AND ABUSING THE TWO TEENAGERS INVOLVED IN THE INCIDENT THAT HAS GAINED NATIONAL ATTENTION SHALL BE PROHIBITED FROM WORKING IN THE CITY TAMARACK. THE RECKLESS AND DANGEROUS BEHAVIOR OF THE THREE DEPUTIES ON THE SCENE IS UNACCEPTABLE INTIMATE TO ME PERSONALLY AND TO THE RESIDENTS WE STRIVE TO PROTECT AND TO SERVE. PLEASE FOLLOW UP WITH SHERIFF GREGORY TONY AND RESPOND WITHIN FIVE BUSINESS DAYS. NOW COMMISSIONER GALLO HAS THE RIGHT TO WRITE LETTERS SO DON'T WHAT EACH ONE OF YOU INDIVIDUALLY. HE MADE A REQUEST. HE'S ASKED HIS COLLEAGUES TO IN FACT SUPPORT HIS REQUEST TO THE MANAGER. THE COMMISSION BY A 4 TO 1 VOTE ON A MOTION THAT WAS CONSISTENT WITH THE REQUEST OF THE SHERIFF TO ATTEND WHO BY THE WAY AGAIN FOR THE RECORD IS AN INDEPENDENT CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICER. HE DOES OR DOES NOT HAVE TO RESPOND THAT'S UP TO THE SHERIFF TODAY IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS LETTER. HOWEVER THE VOTE OF THE COMMISSION WAS TO ASK THE MANAGER TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. THAT'S 
          [00:45:02]
WHAT THE LETTER REQUESTS. PROPERLY CONSISTENT WITH THE CHARTER THE COMMISSION HAS TAKEN A REQUEST PUBLIC ON A VOTE OF 4 TO 1. IT'S IN THE MANAGER'S HANDS TO DEAL WITH IT DIRECTLY AT THIS POINT. I'LL DEFER TO OUR CITY MANAGER. BUT RECOGNIZING THE FACT THAT YOU INDEPENDENTLY INDIVIDUALLY CAN'T DIRECT A MANAGER TO DO ANYTHING BUT COLLECTIVELY YOU CAN. THANK YOU SAM. THANK YOU MADAM MERRITT. IF I MAY. COMMISSIONER BOLTON I HAVE COMMISSIONER GUILLEN'S LETTER. I HAVE DIRECTION FROM THE CITY COMMISSION. WE'LL REVIEW THE CONTRACT WITH VSO AND WHAT THE PROCEDURES ARE AND REPORT BACK TO YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. VICE MAYOR THANK YOU. I THINK EVERYONE AGREES VIOLENCE ON ANY LEVEL BY ANYONE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. WE HAVE THIS SITUATION HERE. I WOULD REQUEST WE AS THE ADULTS. NOW WE HAVE TO BAND TOGETHER TO MAKE THIS BETTER FOR ALL OUR CHILDREN. WE CAN'T BE PULLED APART. WE NEED TO BAND TOGETHER AND DO WHATEVER IT IS WE NEED TO DO TO ENSURE THIS NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN TO ANY CHILD REGARDLESS OF WHAT CITY THEY'RE IN. I HEARD NOW WE'RE GOING TO TALK TO THE KIDS TO FIND OUT ABOUT SOME AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS. AND YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. IF THE CHILDREN ARE NOT INTERESTED IN IT THEN WE'RE REALLY WASTING OUR TIME. WE NEED TO DO WHATEVER IT IS WE NEED TO DO TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY TO BRING ABOUT PEACE IN OUR COMMUNITY AND TAKE CARE OF OUR CHILDREN. SO I ENCOURAGE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU TO GET INVOLVED AS A POSITIVE FORCE AND HELP OUR KIDS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VICE MAYOR. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WE'RE NOW GOING TO MOVE TO THE PROCLAMATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS. I THINK EVERYBODY WHO'S COME HERE TODAY. AND PLEASE GO OUT THERE.

AND I AM GOING TO ASK DEPUTY MARIANNE TO COME ON UP AND ACCEPT THIS AWARD NDP PROCLAMATION. I THINK IT'S COFFEE TIME. HER SON JIM HIGHTOWER WOULD LIKE TO SEE. ALL RIGHT. WHEREAS TAMARACK IS A CARING COMMUNITY KNOWN AS A WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE AND RAISE A FAMILY EVEN THOUGH EVERY FAMILY FACES CHALLENGES THAT REQUIRE FAITH LOVE AND HOPE. AND AUTISM IS ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES IN THE WORLD AFFECTING OVER 1 MILLION AMERICANS INCLUDING PERSONS WITHIN OUR TAMARACK FAMILY. AND IT IS KNOWN THAT WITH PROPER EDUCATION TRAINING AND COMMUNITY LIVING OPTIONS INDIVIDUALS WITH AUTISM CAN LEAD A DISTINGUISHED PRODUCTIVE DISTINGUISHED PRODUCTIVE LIVES IN THEIR COMMUNITIES AND STRIVE TO REACH THEIR FULLEST POTENTIAL. AND THE ANNUAL COST OF SUCH DISABILITIES GROWS INTO THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IT SERVICE OPTIONS LAG FAR BEHIND THE NEEDS OF THOSE WHO ARE MOST AFFECTED. WHEREAS THE CITY OF TAMARACK SUPPORTS AN INCREASED AWARENESS OF THIS CHALLENGING DISABILITY AND FAIR FUNDING FOR RESEARCH AND SERVICES FOR THOSE IN NEED. NOW THEREFORE I'M MICHEL J GOMES MAYOR OF THE CITY TAMARACK. ON BEHALF OF OUR COMMISSION DO HEREBY PROCLAIM THE MONTH OF APRIL 2019 AS AUTISM AWARENESS MONTH IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK IN HONOR OF ALL CHILDREN OUR CHILDREN AND PARENTS WHO ARE AFFECTED BY AUTISM AND ENCOURAGE OUR RESIDENTS TO BECOME EDUCATED AND INFORMED ABOUT PROGRAMS SERVICES AND OPPORTUNITIES TO SUPPORT INDIVIDUALS WITH AUTISM. DEBBIE MARY WOULD LIKE TO SAY ANYTHING YOU KNOW. I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU. THIS ACTUALLY HITS HOME. MY OLDEST SON HAS AUTISM AND THIS BRACELET RIGHT HERE REPRESENTS THE SUPPORT I HAVE FOR HIM AS A DIFFERENT COLOR. THE PUZZLE PIECES YOU KNOW IT'S REALLY HARD TO SET UP HERE BUT THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APRIL 2ND WAS LIGHTING IT UP BLUE FOR WORLD AUTISM AWARENESS MONTH. WELL WE ALL WEAR BLUE IN HONOR OF HER. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. MAYBE NEXT YEAR WE WILL BE ABLE TO WEAR BLUE ON APRIL 2ND AS WELL AND HELP WITH THAT. I WILL HAND IT RIGHT OVER AS A PERSON WHO WHEN I FIRST CAME DOWN HERE MY FIRST JOB WAS WORKING FOR A FOUNDATION THAT WAS RAISING AWARENESS FOR AUTISM. AND THAT WAS IN 1994 AND I HAD THE PLEASURE OF SERVING THERE WORKING THERE FOR FOUR FIVE YEARS AND WE BUILT THE HOSPITAL TO MAKE IT FRIENDLY FOR CHILDREN TO COME FOR ALL KINDS OF SERVICES WHERE THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO GO TO A BIG INSTITUTIONAL HOSPITAL SO THEY GOT THEIR DIALYSIS. THEIR AUTISM TRAINING AND FOR PARENTS TO ALSO LEARN HOW TO COPE WITH THEIR CHILDREN BECAUSE ABOUT ONE IN FIVE YEARS AGO IT WAS SO IN THE NEW STAGES OF LEARNING HOW TO DEAL WITH AUTISM. SO IT IS SOMETHING THAT IS VERY TRUE TO MY HEART AS WELL. AND THE ORGANIZATION IS A DAMN ARENA A FOUNDATION A WONDERFUL ORGANIZATION RAISING MONEY AND AWARENESS AS WELL. BUT ALL ORGANIZATIONS ARE DOING ALL THEIR BEST TO HELP WITH THIS. AND I KNOW COMMISSIONER BOLTON LIKES YOU. THANK YOU MR. MAYOR. SO. SO AUTISM MONTH IS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO ME AS WELL. I'LL TELL YOU A QUICK STORY. ONE ONE TIME PASSED I WAS TAKING A FLIGHT A PERSONAL FLIGHT SOMEWHERE ELSE AND I WAS TRAVELING FIRST CLASS AND ABOUT THREE OR FOUR SEATS BACK. THERE WAS A FAMILY AND APPARENTLY THE SON HAD AUTISM AND SO HE WAS MAKING NOISE ON THE PLANE AND THE PERSON IN FRONT WAS NOT VERY PATIENT WITH THAT FAMILY WAS CURSING AT THE FAMILY AND THAT'S THE STUFF. AND SO EVERYBODY WENT ON THE PLANE WAS SYMPATHETIC TO THE TO THE YOUNG MAN. AND SO I GAVE UP MY SEAT IN FIRST CLASS TO THAT FAMILY TO THE YOUNG MAN AND PAID FOR A SECOND SEAT BESIDE ME. AND SO THAT THAT REACHED HOME TO ME. I TRAVELLED COACH THAT DAY LIKE I DO MOST OF THE TIMES. AND SO IT REALLY HIT HOME. AND SO MY CHURCH HAS TAKEN THE INITIATIVE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A SPECIAL NEEDS TEACHER IN OUR IN OUR IN OUR CONGREGATION TO CATER FOR THOSE THAT ARE LIVING WITH AUTISM. SO IT IS IT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU SHOULD LOOK DOWN ON PEOPLE FOR AUTISM 
          [01:30:02]

PLEASE FIND ENCLOSED AN IMAGE OF RECENT ACCIDENTS THAT ILLUSTRATES WHY THE RESIDENTS ARE ALARMED. THE RESIDENTS ARE FURTHER ALARMED BECAUSE THESE ARE THE THE RESIDENTS ARE FURTHER ALARMED. THESE INCIDENTS ARE NOT ISOLATED BECAUSE THESE INCIDENTS ARE NOT ISOLATED. CARS ARE LUNGING INTO HOMES ALONG THE ROADWAYS AT A RAPID RATE. I'VE FOLLOWED BROWARD COUNTIES PROJECTS PLANNED FOR PROSPECT ROAD AND COMMERCIAL FROM COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD TO DIXIE HIGHWAY THAT IS SCHEDULED FOR CONSTRUCTION IN 2020 TO 2021 AS I UNDERSTAND A PORTION OF THIS PROJECT WITHIN IS WITHIN CITY LIMITS WOULD PROVIDE THE ADDITION THE ADDITION OF FIVE FEET OF FIVE FEET WIDE BICYCLE LANES ADJACENT TO EXISTING OUTSIDE EDGE OF TRAVELLED WAYS PROVIDE FOR ADDITIONAL DRAINAGE REPAVING AND STRIPING OFF THE ROADWAYS SIGNAGE UPGRADES AND CURB RAMPS.

WHILE THESE IMPROVEMENTS ARE WELCOME. I STRONGLY URGE YOU ON BEHALF OF MY RESIDENTS TO HELP ME ADVOCATE FOR ADDING BARRIERS ALONG THE PROSPECT ROAD SECTION LOCATED IN TAMARACK TO PROTECT THE PEDESTRIANS AND RESIDENTIAL PRIVATE PROPERTY FROM BEING HIT BY VEHICLES THAT LOSE CONTROL ON THE ROADWAYS. IN ADDITION TO THE BARRIER I AM FORMALLY REQUESTING THAT YOU HELP ME ADVOCATE FOR A WALL TO BE CONSTRUCTED ALONG THE ROADWAY. AND THE LETTER IS SIGNED BY ME. THE LETTER IS GIVEN TO THE REST OF THE COMMISSION TODAY ON THE SUNSHINE UNDERSTANDING THAT WE ARE THE POLICY MAKERS FOR THIS CITY AND GIVING THE NUMBER OF ACCIDENTS THAT ARE HAPPENING ALONG OUR PROSPECT ROAD. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE CITY LOOKS INTO MOVING UP IN OUR CHP OR ADDING TO OUR CHP A WALL FOR A LONG PROSPECT ROAD.

          [01:35:02]
ELECTED OFFICIALS MEETING THIS WAS A PREPLANNED MEETING AS ORGANIZED BY THE BBC. OH AND SO THERE WE WE MET OUR CURRENT SHERIFF AND HE SPOKE ABOUT THE ISSUES THE ISSUE THAT HAPPENED IN TAMARACK AS WELL AS OTHER ISSUES CONCERNING OUR BROWARD BLACK LIKE TO ELECTED OFFICIALS. AND SO I WAS THERE IN THE ROOM AND OTHER THAN THAT I WANT TO THANK STAFF FOR THEIR PRESENTATION OF THE DISTRICT 2 MEETING IN COMMISSIONER GOLDEN'S DISTRICT. THE INFORMATION PROVIDED WAS WAS WAS GREAT ALTHOUGH THE THE PRESENTATIONS ARE A BIT TOO LONG AND I HOPE IN CLOSED DOORS WE CAN TALK ABOUT OUR MEETING THAT IS COMING UP IN DISTRICT 1 BECAUSE SOME OF THE INFORMATION GIVEN AT THE DISTRICT 2 MEETING WAS IRRELEVANT TO DISTRICT 2. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A CITY WIDE THING BUT PEOPLE HAD REAL CONCERNS THAT THEY WANTED TO TALK ABOUT. 
          AND SO SOME OF THEM STARTED LEAVING BECAUSE THE MEETING WAS TOO LONG. SO FROM MY MEETING I ASKED THAT STAFF REVISIT THE MENU OF ITEMS THAT IS GOING TO BE DISCUSSED SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE SUCH A LONG MEETING. I REPRESENT A LOT OF 55 AND OLDER RESIDENTS AND THEY NEED TO GO TO BED. SO I THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR THAT FOR MAKING SURE THAT THAT HAPPENS. THE LETTER IS SUBMITTED INTO RECORD AND PLEASE CONSIDER THIS ON THE SUNSHINE AS WE MAKE OUR PLANS THROUGH OUR STRATEGIC SESSIONS. 
          THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU COMMISSIONER BOLTON. COMMISSIONER. YES. SO EACH 
          [b. Commissioner Gelin]
COMMITTEE MEETING I SHOW A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION REGARDING NORMALLY IT WILL BE REGARDING WHATEVER ACTIVITIES OR EVENTS I WENT TO FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS. BUT TODAY IT'S JUST GOING TO BE FOCUSING ON THE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED IN TAMARACK A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO OR ACTUALLY JUST LAST WEEK. AND YOU KNOW I FEEL I FEEL COMPELLED TO TO DISCUSS IT. BASED ON ALL OF THE YOU KNOW ALL THE MEDIA ATTENTION IT'S GETTING AND REALLY THE OUTCRY THAT I AM HEARING FROM THE RESIDENTS AND YOU KNOW AS THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE CITY AND OF THE DISTRICT YOU KNOW I THINK I'M HEARING IT AND FEELING IT MORE THAN THE TYPICAL RESIDENT OR EMPLOYEE THAT MAY NOT LIVE HERE IN TAMPA. BUT BEFORE I GET INTO IT WE DID A PROCLAMATION FOR AUTISM AWARENESS MONTH. AND I GOT AN EMAIL ON FACEBOOK ABOUT A RESIDENT THAT HAD AN ISSUE SO I'M JUST GONNA READ IT BEFORE I GET INTO MY PRESENTATION. I'M NOT GOING TO MENTION THAT LADY'S NAME. SHE SAYS HELLO COMMISSIONER I'M AWARE THAT YOU'LL BE MEETING WITH THE SHERIFF TONY ON WEDNESDAY TO SHARE THE CONCERNS OF THE RESIDENTS AND TAMARACK. I'M UNABLE TO ATTEND BUT WE'D LIKE YOU TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF HIS OFFERS OFFICERS NOT BEING APPROPRIATELY TRAINED TO DEAL WITH STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES IN NOVEMBER RIGHT BEFORE THANKSGIVING THROUGH ONE OF THE MOST AGONIZING PERIODS IN OUR LIVES. MY SON THEN 7 YEAR OLD 45 POUNDS SECOND GRADER AT TARMAC ELEMENTARY WAS THREATENED BY DEPUTY ROLES WITH HANDCUFFS WHILE DISPLAYING THE HANDCUFFS FOR HIM TO SEE BECAUSE HE WAS HAVING AN AUTISM MELTDOWN. THIS ELEVATED HIS ANXIETY. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE SCHOOL SITE HE WAS IN A FETAL POSITION AND NON-VERBAL. MY SON POSED NO HARM TO ANY STUDENTS ETC. THAT WOULD WARRANT A POLICE BEING CALLED ON BUT RATHER NOW HAS TO DEAL WITH THE TRAUMA BY AN UNTRAINED PRINCIPAL WHO RECEIVED FIVE DAYS SUSPENSION FOR HER ACTION AND DEPUTY ROSE WHOSE LACK OF TRAINING AND KNOW HOW OF THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY WHICH WAS SHE SAYS RESORTING TO THREATS AND HANDCUFFING THE YOUNG BLACK BOY TO STOP A DISABILITY. HE HAS NO CONTROL OVER. HE HAS NOW HAVE HAS A FEAR OF OFFICERS BECAUSE HE BELIEVED SHE WAS GOING TO KILL HIM AND WE HAVE SINCE HAD TO REMOVE HIM FROM TAMARACK ELEMENTARY BECAUSE HE HAS A FEAR OF RETURNING TO HIS HOME SCHOOL. HE NOW IS IN THE SCHOOL IN A DIFFERENT CITY EVEN THOUGH WE LIVE IN TAMARACK. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AND BE THE VOICE FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES. WE NEED TO FEEL SAFE AND FEARFUL OF THEIR SRO. IT'S TRULY DISHEARTENING THAT OUR CHILD NO LONGER FEELS SAFE AROUND THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO PROTECT AND POOR WHO ARE SWORN TO SERVE AND PROTECT THEM. THANK YOU SO SO. I'M GLAD THAT WE DO HAVE AN OFFICER WHO HAS A CHILD WITH AUTISM THAT NIGHT. GLAD TO HAVE THAT BUT SOMEONE THAT UNDERSTANDS THAT PLIGHT AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU KNOW THE OPTIONS ARE PROPERLY TRAINED AND I DON'T WANT TO SOUND LIKE SOMEONE THAT BASHES POLICE OFFICERS BECAUSE I'VE HAD VERY POSITIVE EXPERIENCES WITH TAMPA POLICE OFFICERS. AND SO I JUST WANT TO 
          [01:40:03]
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IN FACT I THINK LAST MONTH AND I SHARED THIS WITH OUR PARKS AND RECREATION DIRECTOR AND OUR BUILDING DIRECTOR I WAS STOPPED BY A POLICE OFFICER AND RIGHTFULLY SO FOR AN EXPIRED TAG. I DROVE A COP FOR 10 YEARS AND MY MY RENEWAL WAS ALWAYS IN JUNE BUT I HAD AN EXPIRED TAG AND THEY LOOKED ME UP AND I ACTUALLY HAD A SUSPENDED DRIVER'S LICENSE. I HAD NO NO IDEA. AND YOU KNOW THE LADY AND THE TWO POLICE OFFICERS WE HAD A CONVERSATION AND SHE MADE A JUDGMENT CALL BASED ON MY CHARACTER TO LET ME GO AND I REALLY APPRECIATE THAT BECAUSE SHE COULD HAVE LOCKED ME UP THAT NIGHT AND I TOLD HER I WHATEVER OUTSTANDING TICKET I HAD I WOULD PAY FOR THAT NIGHT WHICH I DID AND THAT MONDAY MORNING I TOOK CARE OF EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING WAS STRAIGHT. SO I DO HAVE POSITIVE EXPERIENCES WITH POLICE OFFICERS BUT I NEED TO ADDRESS THE OUTRAGE THAT THAT SOME OF OUR RESIDENTS FEEL. AND HERE IS JUST SOME SOME SOME IMAGES FROM COMMENTS ON MY FACEBOOK PAGE BASED ON HOW RESIDENTS FEEL ABOUT THE INCIDENT THAT JUST OCCURRED SO PEOPLE ON RAGE THEIR OUTRAGE PEOPLE ARE THINKING THAT THAT COULD BE THEM THAT COULD BE THEIR SON. AND THE SECOND COLUMN A GUY SAYS COULD HAVE BEEN MY SON. I AM A MAN. AND SO THERE'S A FEELING OUT THERE THAT EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE A MAN YOU'RE NOT TREATED LIKE A MAN BASED ON WHO YOU ARE. EARLIER TODAY I TALKED ABOUT THE STATEMENTS THAT WERE MADE BY OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS WHO ALSO AGREE THAT THIS WAS A HORRIBLE SITUATION. I WANT TO THANK THE MAYOR A COUNTY MAYOR MARK BOGAN STATE SENATOR GARY FARMER FOR MAKING IT CLEAR HOW THEY STAND ON THIS SITUATION. YOU HAVE TO BE CLEAR WHEN SOMETHING IS WRONG YOU HAVE TO SPEAK OUT WHEN SOMETHING IS WRONG AGAIN. EARLIER TODAY OUR OUR SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS TWO OF THEM WERE HERE AND THEY EXPRESSED OUTWARDLY AND OPENLY THEIR FEELING REGARDING THE SITUATION. YOU KNOW THERE ARE BAD ELECTED OFFICIALS THERE ARE ELECTED OFFICIALS THERE ARE BAD COPS THERE ARE GOOD COPS. BUT ANYTIME THERE IS SOMETHING BAD WE NEED TO IDENTIFY IT AND REMOVE IT. AND THE OUTCRY IS NATIONAL. SO WHEN I FIRST GOT THIS E-MAIL ABOUT THIS ONLINE PETITION THE GOAL WAS TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED. NOW THE GOAL IS SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND WHO KNOWS HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE GONNA SIGN THIS PETITION. AND HERE'S JUST A FEW OF THE COMMENTS THAT THEY'RE MAKING. AND THIS PEOPLE FROM TEXAS FLORIDA AND NEW YORK THE UNITED KINGDOM PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE ANGRY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT YOUNG MAN. SO JUST JUST MORE COMMENTS. YOU KNOW PEOPLE ARE SIGNING BECAUSE THEY'RE OUTRAGED. THEY DON'T THINK IT'S RIGHT. WHAT THEY SAW WAS BEYOND ABUSE AND YOU KNOW WE JUST HAVE TO HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS LIKE THAT THAT THE VICE DEAN OF THE PROGRAM THE POLICE ACADEMY SAID THEY FORFEIT THE RIGHT TO HAVE A BAD DAY. THEY CAN'T HAVE A BAD DAY AND IT'S A TOUGH JOB A STRESSFUL JOB BUT THAT'S WHY ONLY A FEW QUALIFIED PEOPLE SHOULD BE DOING THAT JOB. AND IT'S A SHAME THAT EVEN LEBRON JAMES COACH OF THE CHAMPION GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS THEY ALL HAVE COMMENTS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN OUR CITY AND BROWARD COUNTY AND IN TAMARACK FLORIDA. AND YOU KNOW IT'S GREAT TO GET THE SUPPORT FROM ONE OF THE SURVIVORS OF PARKLAND WHO UNDERSTANDS THAT SOMETIMES THERE APPEARS TO BE A DOUBLE STANDARD WHICH WAS COMMENTING ON EARLIER TODAY BY OUR OUR OUR COMMISSIONER MICHAEL EWING. IT SEEMS LIKE THERE'S MORE ATTENTION GIVEN ONE WHITE PERSON IS IS SUFFERING FROM SOMETHING VERSUS A BLACK PERSON. I'M GLAD THAT DAVID HOGG CLEARLY POINTED THAT OUT. SO I STATED EARLIER THE CHARGES AGAINST THAT INDIVIDUAL WAS DROPPED AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT IS GOOD FOR HIM. BUT HE STILL WENT THROUGH A BAD AND NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT I CAN RELATE TO BECAUSE FOUR YEARS AGO I WAS ARRESTED BY A BROWARD COUNTY SHERIFF OFFICER FOR FOUR FOR DOING NOTHING. I WAS HAVING A PLEASANT CONVERSATION WITH TWO POLICE OFFICERS WATCHING AN INCIDENT THAT WAS UNFORTUNATE. AND NUMBER TWO WHY POLICE OFFICERS I HAD A PLEASANT CONVERSATION WITH THEM AND ALL OF A SUDDEN A HISPANIC POLICE OFFICER CAME ON THE SCENE AND WITHIN 45 SECONDS I WAS UNDER ARREST AND I SPOKE TO THE TO THE OFFICER THAT I HAD A PLEASANT CONVERSATION WITH I SAID WHY IS HE DOING THIS. I SAID TELL ME LET ME GO. BUT HE DIDN'T HAVE THE COURAGE TO TELL THE OFFICER TO LET ME GO. AND ALTHOUGH THOSE CHARGES WERE DROPPED AGAINST ME I STILL HAD TO GO THROUGH THAT NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE. SO IT'S JUST UNFORTUNATE. AND WE AND WE SHOULD EXPECT MORE AND INSTEAD OF JUST TALKING ABOUT POLICE BRUTALITY WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT AFFECTS EVERYBODY. THE MEDIA WILL PICK IT UP WHEN IT'S A BLACK AND WHITE ISSUE BUT IT AFFECTS EVERYONE. SO LAVERNE IF YOU COULD PLAY THE LAST LINK ON THE BOTTOM. LET'S SEE WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE FOR EVEN A 69 YEAR OLD VETERAN YOU DON'T. SO YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL THIS GUY. OK. DO YOU BELIEVE IN SIT DOWN SIT DOWN. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN I TELL YOU TO DO SOMETHING YOU 
          [01:45:05]
DO IT. YES OK. YOU'RE ON A POWER TRIP. IS THAT WHAT. NO I DON'T NEED YOU TO LISTEN. 
          THAT'S MY THOUGHT. THIS GUY. AND ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU'RE PUSHING ME DOWN AND BEING REAL PHYSICAL. YEAH. YOU KNOW WHY. NO I DON'T KNOW WHY. LOWER YOUR VOICE LOWER YOUR VOICE AND REALLY GO AFTER YOU. YES I'M TELLING YOU THE VOICE. OK. LISTEN TO ME. I'M GOING TO TELL YOU ONE MORE TIME JOHN I'M GOING TO TELL YOU ONE MORE TIME AND YOU'RE GONNA GO TO JAIL. IS THAT RIGHT. YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL DO YOU HAVE I.D. ON YOU SIR. YES SIR I DO. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU WHY YOU'RE DOING THIS WHY YOU'RE PUSHING BECAUSE I DON'T LIKE PEOPLE TESTING ME. I DON'T LIKE PEOPLE UP MY DISEASE EITHER. OK. ARE YOU DONE. CAN I SHOW YOU MY I.D.. 
          WE ARE NOT TALKING WHEN YOU WALK UP TO AN OFFICER AND YOU GET THAT CLOSE TO AN OFFICER IT IS NOT GOOD. WHY. BECAUSE NOW YOU'RE IN MY PERSONAL SPACE. SO I AM TELLING YOU TO BACK OFF. YOU DON'T BACK ON. BACK OFF FOR YOU. YES. WHEN I GET THERE KNOW. RIGHT. SO WHEN I GET AN ORDER BECAUSE YOU'RE ON A POWER TRIP WHEN I GIVE IT. IS THAT RIGHT IS WHEN I GIVE YOU AN ORDER AND YOU DON'T FOLLOW IT. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS. I TOLD YOU. BACKUP AND YOU DIDN'T. I TOLD YOU BACK AGAIN. I'M GOING TO SIT YOU DOWN. AND YOU DID. SO I SAT YOU DOWN. THAT'S HOW IT WORKS. YOU UNDERSTAND NAPS. YES YOU'RE ON A POWER TRIP. IS THAT WHAT. SO AGAIN IT'S NOT IT'S NOT A BLACK OR WHITE ISSUE. I MEAN IT'S A IT'S A BAD POLICE BEHAVIOR ISSUE AND NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS. HE'S SIMPLY ASKING SOME QUESTIONS TRYING TO UNDERSTAND A SITUATION. AND ALTHOUGH THE POLICE OFFICER HAD DE-ESCALATION TECHNIQUES HE DIDN'T USE THEM WHO ELEVATED THE SITUATION AND IF YOU'LL JUST BE PATIENT WITH ME JUST ONE MORE VIDEO JUST THAT SECOND VIDEO. THIS WAS A BROWARD COUNTY SHERIFF OFFICER AND I HIGHLIGHTED THIS WITHOUT SHOWING THE VIDEO IN AN EARLIER PRESENTATION. I DID A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO WHEN THIS OFFICER HAS ALREADY COST OUR SHERIFF'S OFFICE OVER FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS. AND THE PERSON BEING ATTACKED WHAT HE WAS NOT A SITUATION A WOMAN WAS BEING CALLED THE SITUATION BUT THE POLICE OFFICER ATTACKED HIM. YOU'VE GOT A TEMPER RIGHT NOW. WHAT'S GOING ON. YOU TAKING A LOOK AT YOUR I.D. FOR THE FIRST TIME I KNOW SOMETHING THEY ARE SUFFERING AND BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED YOU'RE NOT A LUCKY GUY. HE'S AN ACTOR PLAYER. I WANT TO SEE YOU. I DO. OK. OK FINE I WON'T TAKE IT AGAIN. YOU GOT A WARNING. OK. WATCH OUT FOR EVERYTHING ON THIS KID. HEY HEY HEAR. CAN GET IT NOW. I SAY HE IS TAKING THE CAR. LET ME GET MY I.D. NOW. CAN YOU GIVE ME FIVE. MAYBE I CAN GET SOME IDEA. NOW I WANTED TO WIN YOU BABY. I THINK HE IS. BUT IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME ONE TIME I'M PICKING YOU UP AT YOUR OWN PERIL. I WAS IN THE BACK MY. WHAT DID YOU CAN GET TO TAKE THE BUS RIGHT NOW. COME ON GIVE ME IS THERE A WAY WITH THE SENSIBLE WAY OF LOOKING TO GIVE YOU BY. NO I DID NOT SAY THAT. I PREFER A NO SHOW. WELL YOU DO KNOW THAT THIS IS THE BALANCE THAT 
          [01:50:11]
WE'RE GETTING AT HERE. HE WANTS A CONSOLE WITH MAYBE HE CAN AND SO HAS BEEN HERE. 
          THERE AREN'T ENOUGH TO GO DOWN IN THE STOPS WITH THE STROKE AND THE MOTHER WANTS TO CONSOLE HER BABY SHE CAN'T CONSOLE HER BABY. WATCH ME GRAB HER BABY ONE MORE TIME. YOU WON'T BE SEEING YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BED ROOM. YOU SAID NO ONE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR BUT I WANT TO DO WHAT I'M GIVING UP GOING TO GO MAN. I DON'T KNOW WHEN I TELL YOU JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE TRAINING. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO THEY WANT. I JUST DO. HOW LONG YOU BEEN AROUND HERE. OK. YOU KNOW HOW TO GET IT WORKED FOR ME. ALL RIGHT GENTLEMEN. YOU GOT A WARRANT FROM DADE COUNTY FOR THAT. 
          I'M GOING. WE'RE NOT TAKING IT. A MINUTE. YOU TAKE IT OVER LIKE WE DID TURN THE TV OVER THE TOP. WELL GUESS WHAT YOU GOT THE CAFFERTY FILE JACK. QUICK BREAK IT WOULD SEEM WE DID IT RIGHT. I WOULDN'T THROW ME OUT THERE AND WE COULD END UP THINKING YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE BEFORE HE GRABBED ME BY MY NECK. THAT'S RIGHT. YOU THOUGHT YOU WANT TO TRY ME. NO LIKE INTENTIONAL. LET'S DO YOU WANT MORE. I TOLD YOU WHY. THREE TIMES I WILL GIVE THIS MAN TO SOMEBODY I DON'T EVEN KNOW. YOU KNOW WHAT PEOPLE SAY LOOK YOU GET MY BIG CONCRETE GUY. SO YES YOU SHOULD. OK. I'M NOT TOO SURE IT ISN'T MY. SO WHY CAN'T I GO MAN. WHEN DID THEY KNOW YOU CAME. YES YOU KNOW THIS IS MY SOCIAL SAME LATELY. THAT'S ALL WE HAD TO DO. WELL TO KNOW WHY WHY WHY WOULDN'T YOU NOT JUST GOT KICKED OUT. WE'LL BRING IT TO YOU WHEN GETTING WOULD RATHER BE IN THAT INTRICATE POLITICAL ASYLUM CLAIM IS GOING TO BE ON HIS WAY OUT. YOU KNOW WE'RE TRYING TO HOW ON TO CUT IT OFF NOW. SO JUST IN BOTH SITUATIONS PEOPLE ARE JUST ASKING QUESTIONS YOU KNOW WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME. AND THEN THE SITUATION GETS ELEVATED AND THIS HAPPENS ON A REGULAR BASIS. AND I DID THE SAME THING IN MY SITUATION I JUST ASKED OFFICER WHAT'S GOING ON. WHY ARE YOU COMING AT ME. AND NEXT YOU KNOW I'M IN HANDCUFFS. SO LOOK I UNDERSTAND OFFICERS HAVE A TOUGH JOB. IT'S A STRESSFUL JOB BUT YOU NEED TO DE-ESCALATE THE SITUATION RATHER THAN ESCALATED SALT. I'LL TRY TO MOVE QUICKLY. 
          AND AGAIN IT'S NOT A BLACK AND WHITE ISSUE. HERE'S ANOTHER SITUATION IN THE STATE OF MISSOURI. THIS TEENAGER FLASHES LIGHTS AT A MISSOURI POLICE OFFICER FIVE MINUTES AFTER HE'S STOPPED. HE'S DEAD AND YOU CAN LOOK AT THE VIDEO ON CNN OR ON YOUTUBE. IT'S ALREADY GOT TWO POINT SIX MILLION VIEWS. YOU KNOW THIS YOU KNOW THIS THIS JUST SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING POLICE OFFICERS ARE MORE HAVE MORE POWER THAN JUDGES THAN ANYBODY ELSE BECAUSE THEY CAN TAKE YOUR LIFE AND A LOT OF CASES THEY GET AWAY WITH IT SO JUST THE DEFINITION OF POLICE BRUTALITY. I'M NOT GOING TO GO INTO IT. YOU KNOW EVERYONE HAS SEEN IT. YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE BUT IT'S BEEN AROUND FOR A LONG TIME SINCE THE 18 70S WHEN LAW ENFORCEMENT WOULD PHYSICALLY HARM WORKERS THAT WENT ON STRIKE. SO WE HAVE TO CHANGE PATTERN CHANGES CULTURE. NORMALLY WE DO THAT IS TO LOOK AT IT HEAD ON ACKNOWLEDGE IT AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. YOU KNOW MARTHA KING IS ACKNOWLEDGED FOR HIS GREAT I HAVE A DREAM SPEECH. BUT EVEN IN THAT SPEECH HE TALKED ABOUT POLICE BRUTALITY AND WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO ADDRESS IT. 
          MALCOLM X ALSO TALKED ABOUT IT AND WHAT HE SAID A LONG TIME AGO RESONATES TODAY. 
          ATTACK YOU. BUT YOU UPSIDE YOUR HEAD AND THEN YOU GET CHARGED WITH ASSAULT. AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE KID WITH THE RED T-SHIRT THE OTHER DAY. AND HERE ARE IMAGES OF THREE KNOWN MURDERERS WHO KILL KIDS AND THEN A GUY WOULD TRY TO PICK UP A CELL PHONE. WHO WOULD GUESS THAT THE PERSON WHO JUST PICKED UP A CELL PHONE IS THE ONE THAT ENDS UP BLEEDING THE OTHER GUYS OR ARE TAKEN UNHARMED. IN FACT THE SOUTH CAROLINA MURDERER WAS TAKEN TO BURGER KING BEFORE HE WAS TAKEN TO JAIL BECAUSE HE SAID HE WAS HUNGRY. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THAT AND WE REALLY SHOULDN'T BE SURPRISED ABOUT ALL THESE THINGS HAPPENING BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENED OVER AND OVER AGAIN. SOME OF YOU REMEMBER THE RODNEY KING BEATING. HE WAS BRUTALLY BEATEN BY FOUR POLICE OFFICERS AND THE JURY FOUND IT NOT GUILTY SOMEHOW EVEN THOUGH PRESIDENT BUSH HIMSELF SAID WHAT HE SAW MADE HIM SICK. IT WAS SICKENING TO SEE THE BEATING THAT WAS RENDERED. THERE'S NO WAY IN MY VIEW TO EXPLAIN IT AWAY. IT'S OUTRAGEOUS. YET THE FOUR OFFICERS WERE FOUND NOT GUILTY UNTIL PRESIDENT BUSH MADE SURE THAT FEDERAL CHARGES OR AGAINST THOSE GUYS AND THE ACLU THE AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION. YOU KNOW THEY'VE TAKEN A STAND ON THIS AND THEY KNOW THAT THERE 
          [01:55:04]
CAN'T BE JUSTICE WITHOUT POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY. LET'S ACKNOWLEDGE AND REWARD POLICE OFFICERS THAT DO A GREAT JOB. AND THEN FOR THOSE THAT DON'T DO A GOOD JOB WE HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE AND WE TRY TO. WE NEED TO TRAIN LAW ENFORCEMENT TO MAKE SURE THAT PHYSICAL HARM IS A LAST RESORT OPTION. SO THIS WAS MY. THIS WAS MY RECOMMENDATION THIS MORNING I'M REALLY GLAD THAT THE CITY COMMISSION BY MAJORITY VOTE HAD IT PASSED. LET'S JUST GET TO THOSE THREE POLICE OFFICERS LET'S SEND THAT MESSAGE THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO TOLERATE THAT IN TAMARACK AND THEN I ALSO THINK THAT WE SHOULD CONDUCT THE FEASIBILITY STUDY AND DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT WE SHOULD HAVE OUR OWN POLICE DEPARTMENT RATHER THAN CONTRACTING WOULD BE. SO IT'S JUST TO ME IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO FROM A COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS PERSPECTIVE. NUMBER ONE. NUMBER TWO OTHER CITIES OF LIKE SIZE HAVE THEIR OWN POLICE DEPARTMENT LIKE MARGATE COCONUT CREEK LOT OF HILL. I'M SURE THERE ARE OTHERS. AND THE CITY MANAGER AND THE H.R. DIRECTOR I CAN TELL YOU WHEN I FIRST CAME ON ONE OF MY FIRST QUESTIONS WAS WELL IF WE'RE CONTRACTED WOULD BE A SO FOR POLICE WHY DON'T WE CONTRACT WOULD BE A FOR FIRE AND IF WE HAVE OUR OWN FIRE DEPARTMENT WE'RE LIKE WHY DON'T WE HAVE OUR OWN POLICE DEPARTMENT. SO I'M OPEN TO LOOKING AT IT BOTH WAYS. BUT GIVEN WHAT HAS HAPPENED AND THE FACT THAT WE DON'T REALLY HAVE CONTROL IN TERMS OF PUNISHING SOMETHING SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED TO AN OFFICER INVOLVING AN OFFICER THEN WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE ACTION. AND YOU KNOW WHEN THINGS LIKE THIS HAPPEN YOU KNOW I'M AT A LOSS FOR WORDS. AND SO SOMETIMES I LOOK TO AUTHORS AND POETS TO TO COME UP WITH SOME INSPIRATION. AND SO THIS ONE QUOTE THAT FROM FROM JAMES BALDWIN REALLY HITS HOME WITH ME HOW YOU KNOW BEING A BLACK PERSON IN THIS COUNTRY AND BEING CONSCIOUS ABOUT BEING A BLACK PERSON SOMETIMES YOU'RE IN RAGE BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE LOOKED UPON AS A THREAT YOU'RE LOOKED UPON AS A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN YOU'RE LOOKED UPON AS NOT GOOD AS GOOD AS REGARDLESS OF WHAT KIND OF DEGREES YOU HAVE. AND REALLY THAT'S UNFAIR. AND YOU KNOW WE DO NEED TO COME UP WITH SOLUTIONS REGARDING THIS TERRIBLE PROBLEM WHETHER THAT MEANS BRINGING THOSE KIDS HERE AT OUR RECREATION CENTER OR AT THE GYM HAVING THE SCHOOL DO SOMETHING SOME KIND OF AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM AND THAT ALL COSTS MONEY AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO PAY FOR IT. AND IT'S ALWAYS HARD TO FIND FINANCIAL RESOURCES FOR THESE THINGS BUT YOU KNOW WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOU KNOW MAKING SURE OUR KIDS DON'T HAVE IDLE TIME. THEY SAY A DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND IS WHEN SOMEONE HAS IDLE TIME AND SO JUST IN CLOSING YOU KNOW NOT EVERYTHING THAT IS FACED CAN BE CHANGED BUT NOTHING THAT CAN BE CHANGED NOTHING CAN BE CHANGED UNTIL IT'S FACE. 
          AND WE NEED TO HAVE YOU KNOW POSITIVE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT POLICE OFFICER OFFICER BEHAVIOR ABOUT RACE ABOUT YOU KNOW DIFFICULT ITEMS AND THEN WE CAN MOVE FORWARD FROM THERE. AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION THANK YOU COMMISSIONER GALEN 
          [c. Commissioner Fishman]
COMMISSIONER FISHMAN LAST THURSDAY. COMMISSIONER GOOD MORNING. LAST THURSDAY OUR CITY BECAME A HEADLINE NEWS. WHEN OFFICERS TOOK DOWN A BLACK YOUTH SHOVED HIS HEAD INTO THE PAVEMENT AND HIT HIM REPEATEDLY IN THE HEAD. THE VIOLENCE SHOWN ON THE VIDEO WAS UNACCEPTABLE. TO ME AS A MOTHER AND AS AN ELECTED OFFICIAL SINCE THAT INCIDENT TWO OF THE OFFICERS INVOLVED HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED. THE STATE ATTORNEY IS LOOKING INTO THEIR ACTIONS AND ALL CHARGES AGAINST THE YOUNG MAN HAVE BEEN DROPPED. I HAVE SPOKEN TO SOME WHO COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE WAS SUCH ANGUISH IN THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY ABOUT THIS INCIDENT. WHY DID THE PUSH FOR A RESOLUTION. WHY NO PATIENCE FOR SOME I HAVE HAD TO EXPLAIN THAT WHEN AN INCIDENT LIKE THIS HAPPENS PEOPLE OF COLOR DON'T SEE JUST THIS INCIDENT. THEY SEE A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE AND POLICE BRUTALITY SPANNING GENERATIONS AS WE'VE SEEN IN THE VIDEOS JUST SHOWN. THEY SEE PICTURES IN THEIR MINDS OF PEOPLE MANY OF US HAVE NEVER HEARD OF. AND WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE FOLKS BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN. THEY REMEMBER OTHER TIMES WHEN THEY WERE ASKED TO WAIT FOR JUSTICE NEVER RECEIVED REGARDLESS OF THEIR PATIENTS THIS IS THEIR REALITY. AS A JEWISH PERSON I WAS TAUGHT 
          [02:00:02]
AT HOME AT SCHOOL AND AT TEMPLE THAT WE MUST ALWAYS REMEMBER THE HOLOCAUST SO THAT SOMETHING THIS HORRENDOUS NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN. IT WAS ONLY AS AN ADULT THAT I LEARNED OF REDLINING GENTRIFICATION AND THE VIOLENCE OF POLICE AND OTHERS TO THE LEADERS OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT WHEN LOOKING AT HOW WE GET BEYOND THIS INCIDENT THIS INCIDENT. WE NEED TO RECOGNIZE AND ACCEPT THE HISTORY OF VIOLENCE DONE TO THOSE IN THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY. IT IS ONLY BY THIS RECOGNITION AND ACCEPTANCE THAT WE CAN MOVE FORWARD AND CHANGE THE FUTURE. WITH THIS IN MIND I WOULD INVITE EVERYONE INTERESTED TO JOIN ME ON MAY 1ST STARTING AT 6 P.M. AT THE TAMARACK COMMUNITY CENTER TO A PROGRAM CALLED LET'S TALK ABOUT RACE AND EQUITY WHICH IS PART OF A PART OF THE 10 DAY OF CONNECTION THE 10 DAYS OF CONNECTION TAKES PLACE IN MIAMI-DADE AND BROWARD COUNTIES FROM MAY 1ST THROUGH MAY 10TH. IT IS CO HOSTED BY MORE THAN 100 ORGANIZATIONS AND THERE ARE DOZENS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO CONNECT WITH OTHERS ACROSS THE LINES OF DIFFERENCE. A BRIEF PRESENTATION ON THE LOCAL HISTORY OF RACISM IN BROWARD AND IMPLICIT RACIAL BIAS WILL INFORM IT WILL INFORM THE CONVERSATION ABOUT UNDERSTANDING AND ADDRESSING RACIAL DISPARITIES TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR ALL BROWARD RESIDENTS. STRATEGIES TO CO CREATE EQUITY WILL BE DISCUSSED. YOU CAN REGISTER THROUGH EVENTBRITE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU COMMISSIONER FISHMAN VICE MAYOR OF ALASKA. THANK YOU. I'D LIKE TO 
          [d. Vice Mayor Placko]
TALK ABOUT UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL FOR A MINUTE. I THINK EVERYONE IS AWARE THAT IS PART OF UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL. WE DO HAVE THE PAVILION WHICH IS A CENTER FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTH. THIS CENTER HAS 60 BEDS ROUGHLY 17 DOCTORS THEY TREAT ADULTS CHILDREN ADOLESCENTS. I WANT TO MAKE A POINT VERY CLEAR HERE FROM 4 YEARS OLD TO 17 YEARS OLD CHILDREN ADOLESCENCE WHENEVER ANYONE IS BROUGHT IN FOR ANY REASON THAT THEY MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO THE PAVILION THAT COULD BE BAKER ACT THAT COULD BE SOMEONE WHO'S BEEN ON THE STREET THEY'RE NOT SURE WHERE THEY FALL INTO THIS. THEY GO THROUGH THE EMERGENCY ROOM. THESE YOUNG CHILDREN THESE ADOLESCENTS ADULTS WHATEVER ARE BROUGHT INTO THE EMERGENCY ROOM WITH ALL OF THE OTHER PATIENTS. UNIVERSITY HOSPITALS SEEING THAT AS AN ISSUE HAS NOW FORMED A PSYCHIATRIC RESPONSE UNIT WHICH IS TOTALLY SEPARATE. I WENT TO VIEW IT THIS PAST WEEK. WHAT THEY HAVE DONE BECAUSE THERE IS AN ISSUE THEY HAVE CREATED A SEPARATE SPACE THEY WILL NOT GO INTO THE EMERGENCY ROOM ANY LONGER IN THEIR SPACE. THEY HAVE CUBICLES THAT WILL BE CURTAINED OFF. THERE WILL BE ONE PERSON IN THERE AND THEY WILL BE DEALT WITH. THEY HAVE A TOTALLY SEPARATE ROOM FOR CHILDREN. CHILDREN WILL NOT BE OUT IN THE POPULATION. THEY WILL NOT BE WITH ANY OF THE ADULTS THEY HAVE WHAT THEY CALL A CALMING RELAXING ROOM WHERE SOMEONE CAN GO IN THERE THEY CAN HAVE SOOTHING MUSIC TO TRY AND CALM THEM DOWN TO GET THEM TO A STATE THAT THEY NEED TO GET INTO. 
          OBVIOUSLY ALL OF THESE AREAS HAVE CAMERAS THEY HAVE WINDOWS NOBODY GOES UNATTENDED. 
          THE OTHER THING THAT THIS ALLOWS THERE IS A SHOWER WHEN YOU HAVE SOMEBODY COMING IN WHO MAY HAVE UNFORTUNATELY BEEN OUT ON THE STREET FOR ANY AMOUNT OF TIME. THEY ARE SOMETIMES IN NEED OF A SHOWER. THE REASON THEY DO THIS THEY HAVE TO EVALUATE EACH PATIENT TO FIND OUT WHERE THEY LIE IF THEY NEED MEDICAL TREATMENT. THEY NEED TO STAY WITHIN THE HOSPITAL BEFORE THEY'RE TRANSFERRED OVER TO THE PAVILION. THIS ALLOWS THE MEDICAL STAFF TO DEAL WITH THEIR SPECIFIC ISSUES IN A CONFINED ENVIRONMENT. THEY'RE NOT FEEL THEY DON'T FEEL THREATENED IN ANY WAY AND ANYONE IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM IS ALSO NOT FEELING THREATENED. I JUST WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL IS TRYING DESPERATELY TO UPGRADE. I'M GOING TO CONTINUE TO BRING THINGS TO YOU ABOUT WHAT THEY'VE DONE. THEY'VE SPENT A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY. NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT IT. EVERYBODY GOES TO THE HOSPITAL. YOU DON'T WANT TO BE THERE. YOU DON'T FEEL GOOD. IT'S ALWAYS BAD. I GET THAT. BUT THEY ARE 
          [02:05:05]
TRYING TO MAKE THEIR ENVIRONMENT AT LEAST A LITTLE BIT BETTER WHILE YOU DO HAVE TO BE THERE. THIS STEP TO ME IS A GREAT GREAT STEP IN NOT PUTTING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD NOT BE IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM IN THEIR OWN ENVIRONMENT ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE DEALING WITH CHILDREN 4 YEARS OLD. SO I JUST WANTED TO SHARE THAT WITH YOU. I WILL CONTINUE TO SHARE THESE WITH YOU JUST TO KEEP YOU UPDATED ON WHAT'S GOING ON RIGHT IN OUR BACKYARD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU VICE MAYOR. I AM GOING TO WISH 
          [e. Mayor Gomez]

TYPICALLY THE APPOINTMENTS ARE ALWAYS ON THEIR TIP IF I MAY MATTER. OR COMMISSION APPOINTMENTS ARE TYPICALLY ON CONSENT SO TO THE EXTENT THAT THE MANAGER HAS BEEN ASKED TO ADD TO THE AGENDA THAT WHICH WOULD BE ADDED TO THE AGENDA GIVEN THE CONVERSATIONS ABOVE MONDAY AND PREVIOUSLY IT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE TO SIMPLY ADD TEMPORARY RESOLUTION NUMBER 1 3 2 5 9 WHICH IS AN APPOINTMENT TO THE PLANNING BOARD AND TEMPERATE RESOLUTION NUMBER 1 3 2 6 1 WHICH IS AN APPOINTMENT TO THE PUBLIC ART COMMITTEE ON THE CONSENT AGENDA. JOINING THE MOTION IS SECOND I DO NOT JUST GET TO BE THERE ON THE CONSENT AGENDA THEY NEED TO BE. THIS IS SIMPLY A PUBLIC DIRECTION THAT THEY'RE BEING ADDED 
          [02:15:04]
TO THE AGENDA. AS A MATTER OF COURSE. OK. COLLEAGUES AT THIS TIME ARE THERE ANY MOTIONS ARE WE MOVING FORWARD WITH THE CONSENT AGENDA AS IS MOTION TO APPROVE I DO NOT HAVE A SECOND OR SECOND I HAVE TROUBLED FACES BUT NO COMMENTS. MADAM MAYOR IN COMMISSION THE RESERVES ARE BEFORE YOU THAT THE TWO THERE ARE THREE BEFORE YOU. I READ THE TITLE TO THE ONE I WAS ASKED TO READ WHICH RELATES TO IT AND DO SADOWSKI FUNDING THE OTHER TO OUR COMMISSIONER GUILLEN'S APPOINTMENTS TO BOTH THE PLANNING BOARD AND TO THE PUBLIC ART COMMITTEE WHICH WAS DISCUSSED ON MONDAY DURING THE WORKSHOP AND THE CLERK HAS DUTIFULLY PREPARED THE RESOLUTIONS AND INSERT THE NAME OF HIS APPOINTEES OR NOMINEES AS THE CASE MAY BE THERE ON CONSENT UNLESS SOMEONE PULLS THEM FROM CONSENT THEY GET APPROVED BASED UPON A VOTE OF AT LEAST THREE VOTES THAT WOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE CONSENT AGENDA REVIEW I JUST DON'T SEE IT ON CONSENT. I AM LOOKING AT THE WRONG THING. I HAVE THE WRONG THEY'RE ADDED ON. YES I WITH YOU BUT THESE ARE WALK ONTO THE CONSENT AGENDA WITHOUT UNDERNEATH IT BUT YES THEY SHOULD BE. I SEE THEM ON MY DESK. I'M LOOKING AT I'M LOOKING AT MY HEATHER WALKER. MADAM THERE IF I CAN TO THE COMMISSIONER. COMMISSIONER BOLTON. THE SADOWSKI RESOLUTION WAS DISCUSSED AS A AS A CONSENSUS ITEM BY MONDAY. I'M TALKING ABOUT THE THE APPOINTMENTS. CORRECT. I DON'T SEE IT. I DON'T SEE IT IN MY BOOK. I SEE THE WALK ON RESOLUTIONS ON MY DESK BUT I DON'T SEE IT PHYSICALLY ON THE CONSENT AGENDA. THEY'RE BEING ADDED ON IT SO THEY'RE WALK THE WALK ONS TO THE CONSENT AGENDA. THE MANAGER IS PRO IS PROVIDING THEM THROUGH THE CLERK TO THE CAMERA IN CONDITION AND THE APPOINTMENTS PROCESS TO THE CONSENT AGENDA. AS A MATTER OF COURSE. THAT'S CORRECT. I JUST WANTED TO BE CLEAR FOR THE RECORD UNLESS THE ITEMS ARE PULLED BY A MEMBER OF THE COMMISSION THERE ON THE CONSENT AGENDA AS REQUIRED BY THE CODE THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO ADD THE NAMES INSERTED THE MANAGER REMINDED ME THAT I'M THERE IN CONDITION THAT THAT THAT THESE ARE HIS ITEMS. THESE WERE ASKED FOR AND ARE ON THE AGENDA. BASED UPON HIS REQUEST AND FULFILLING THE COMMITMENT UNDER THE CODE FOR HIS TWO APPOINTMENTS AND JUST TO BE CLEAR. COMMISSIONER. COMMISSIONER GUILLEN ADVISED ON MONDAY AT THE WORKSHOP THAT HE WOULD BE PUTTING THESE ITEMS FORWARD I UNDERSTAND. BUT I'M OK WITH THAT. JUST WANT TO BE CLEAR. YEAH. SO WHEN YOU MET AMERICAN MISSION WHEN YOU TAKE UP THE CONSENT AGENDA IT IS AS IT WAS WRITTEN IN THE ORIGINAL AGENDA BOOK ALONG WITH THESE THREE RESOLUTIONS. THAT IS THE CONSENT AGENDA. OKAY LADIES AND GENTLEMEN IF I HAVE NO DISCUSSION ON THIS MATTER WE'RE GOING TO CALL THE ROLL THE FREQUENT BEFORE YOU CALL IT. I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO ADD ANOTHER ITEM TO THE CONSENT AGENDA THAT IS ADDING NICOLE CLEAR TO THE PLANNING BOARD. THAT'S MY APPOINTMENT. I'M JUST TRYING TO GO THROUGH THE NAMES OF MY LIST OF MEN AGAIN. NO. YEAH I HEARD YOU AFTERWARDS THIS WAY. OKAY. SORRY. MADAM MAYOR. YES. TO THE EXTENT THE COMMISSIONER BOLTON ADDS A NAME ALSO TO THE COMMISSION AGENDA CONSENT AGENDA FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO THE PLANNING BOARD. THE CLERK WOULD HAVE TO CONFORM A RESOLUTION TO SUPPORT THAT NOMINEE. IF THE COMMISSION SUPPORTS THE CONSENT AGENDA WITH NAME OF MISS CLAIRE SO IT STANDS THAT DOES MAKE IT CLEAR FOR EVERYBODY. THE COMMISSION CONSENT AGENDA NOW IS THE APPROVAL OF THE MARCH 27 29 REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES. THE AWARD BID NUMBER 19 14 B FOR THE PINE ISLAND PEDESTRIAN CROSSING THE PENAL EASEMENT FOR COLONY W THE RESOLUTION TO SUPPORT FULL FUNDING FOR SADOWSKI HOUSING TRUST FUND AND SENATE BILL 17 COMPANION BILLS. MEETING BRIEFLY ON THE APPOINTMENT TO THE PLANNING BOARD ON BEHALF OF COMMISSIONER GO OF EILEEN LIEBERMAN THE APPOINTMENT TO THE PARK AND REC BOARD SCUSE ME THE PUBLIC ARE BORED OF SANDY HILL AND FOR COMMISSIONER BOLTON FOR NICOLE. CLAIRE I HAVE A COMMISSIONER FISHMAN I GUESS I'M DOING MY BUTTON BACKWARDS THIS DAYS. JUST TO CLARIFY THAT 
          [02:20:02]
IN OUR STRATEGIC PLAN AND IN YESTERDAY'S MEETING WE DID DISCUSS LOOKING AT THE BOARDS AND THE COMMITTEES. CORRECT. CORRECT. SO THESE APPOINTMENTS IF THEY GO FORWARD HOW DOES THAT AFFECT THE CONVERSATION. AND DOES THAT AFFECT THE CONVERSATION ABOUT THE BOARDS AND COMMITTEE STRUCTURE AND WHICH BOARDS AND COMMITTEES WE HAVE MR. MANAGER THROUGH THE SO THE THE THE ISSUE RELATED TO BOARDS AND COMMITTEES THE NUMBER OF BOARDS AND COMMITTEES THE TYPE THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND HOW BOARDS AND COMMITTEES ARE UTILIZED BY THE CITY COMMISSION HAS BEEN A TOPIC OF STRATEGIC PLANNING SINCE WE BEGAN BACK IN JANUARY. THE YOU KNOW IT'S BEEN AN ONGOING CONVERSATION. THE YOU KNOW APPOINTMENT PROCESS WAS BROUGHT FORWARD BY THE CLERK. 
          EACH OF YOU WAS ASKED TO PROVIDE NAMES FOR THE APPOINTMENTS THAT YOU HAVE WITH WITHIN YOUR PURVIEW WITHIN YOUR DISTRICTS. SOME SOME NAMES WERE PUT FORWARD SOME NAMES WERE NOT YOU KNOW IN TERMS OF REVIEW OF THE BOARDS AND COMMITTEES YOU'VE TALKED ABOUT IT BUT THAT HAS NOT YET OCCURRED NOR HAVE WE SCHEDULED A MEETING TO ACTUALLY FACILITATE THE DISCUSSION OF BOARDS AND COMMITTEES. AND I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW EACH OF YOU HAS EXPRESSED TO ME PRIVATELY CONCERNS THAT YOU HAVE REGARDING THE ACTIVITIES OF OUR VARIOUS BOARDS AND OUR VARIOUS COMMITTEES WHETHER IT BE THE AUTHORITY THAT'S BEEN GRANTED TO THE PLANNING BOARD OR WHETHER IT'S BEEN THE AUTONOMY OF THE PUBLIC ART COMMITTEE OR WHETHER IT'S BEEN THE THE UTILITY WE'LL CALL IT OF THE PARKS AND REC ADVISORY BOARD AND THEIR INTERACTION WITH THE PARKS AND REC FOUNDATION. AND SO AT THIS POINT THAT NONE OF THOSE NONE OF THOSE ISSUES HAVE BEEN DISCUSSED. NONE OF THOSE ISSUES HAVE BEEN RESOLVED. NONE OF THOSE MATTERS HAVE BEEN PUT FORWARD FOR FOR CHANGE SO WHEN THE DISCUSSION HAPPENS AND POTENTIAL CHANGES ARE MADE EITHER IN THE STRUCTURE OR THE REQUIREMENTS TO BE ON A BOARD HOW DOES THAT AFFECT ANY APPOINTMENTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY MADE AND THE PEOPLE THAT ARE ON THE BOARDS AS THEY CURRENTLY ARE. WELL I THINK ANY ANYONE WHO'S SERVING ON A ON A BOARD OR A COMMITTEE AT THIS POINT HAS BEEN DULY APPOINTED BY THE MAYOR AND THE CITY COMMISSION AND THAT THEIR QUALIFICATIONS WERE WHAT THEY NEEDED TO BE WHEN THEY WERE APPOINTED IN THE FIRST PLACE. AND SO IF YOU CHANGE IF YOU CHANGE QUALIFICATIONS GOING FORWARD IT IS IT'S THE PURVIEW OF EACH COMMISSIONER AND THE MAYOR TO APPOINT OR REMOVE AND REAPPOINT. THAT'S UP TO YOU. SO IF THE QUALIFICATIONS CHANGE IF THE RESPONSIBILITIES CHANGE YOU'RE GOING TO EACH HAVE TO EVALUATE THE PEOPLE THAT YOU'VE APPOINTED PREVIOUSLY AND THE PEOPLE THAT YOU WOULD CONSIDER TO APPOINT AND MAKE APPOINTMENTS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK THAT'S PROVIDED I DON'T HAVE YOUR LEFT. SO COMMISSIONER GOLLAND IT APPEARS YOU WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK YES JUST SORT OF MAKE IT CLEAR THAT I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR ME TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO SELECT MY APPOINTMENT FOR THE PLANNING BOARD AND THE PUBLIC. OUR COMMITTEE MAY 6 WILL MAKE IT SIX MONTHS SINCE I'VE BEEN ELECTED AND I'VE BEEN TASKED WITH REPRESENTING THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE OF DISTRICT 2 AND I HAVE NOT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THE PEOPLE OF MY CHOICE SELECT SERVE ON THOSE COMMITTEES. 
          SO I WOULD APPRECIATE THE COMMISSION ALLOWING ALLOW ME TO GO TO MY APPOINTMENT. THANKS VERY SMART. THANK YOU. I KNOW I'VE BROUGHT THIS UP SEVERAL TIMES THAT WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT DISCUSSING ALL OUR BOARDS AND POSSIBLY REVAMPING THEM IN SOME WAY. WE ALSO FELT THAT WE WANTED TO TAKE A LOOK AT SOME TO SEE IF WE WERE WASTING RESIDENTS TIME. I WAS HOPING WE WERE GOING TO GET TO THAT YESTERDAY. BUT AS WE SAW THE MEETING WENT WAY OVER AND WE DID NOT GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT I 
          [02:25:01]
STILL THINK IT BEHOOVES US TO HAVE THAT DISCUSSION. I HAVE NOT MADE ANY APPOINTMENTS YET FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS. I WANT TO SIT DOWN WITH EACH AND EVERY APPLICANT WHO HAS APPLIED FOR ANY OF THE BOARDS IN MY DISTRICT AND TALK WITH EACH OF THEM INDIVIDUALLY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SCHEDULE THAT YET BUT THAT IS COMING UP I BELIEVE NEXT WEEK. I ALSO DON'T WANT TO APPOINT SOMEONE TO A BOARD ONLY TO HAVE TO GO BACK TO THEM AND SAY YOU KNOW WHOOPS WE'VE CHANGED THE DYNAMIC WE'VE CHANGED THE BOARD. WE DON'T WANT TO WASTE YOUR TIME WHATEVER SO I STILL ENCOURAGE US TO HAVE THAT CONVERSATION REGARDING THOSE BOARDS COMMISSIONER GIL I DO UNDERSTAND THAT. BUT I ALSO THINK THAT I SHOULD NOT BE HARMED OR NEED NONE OF MY RESIDENTS OR APPOINTEES SHOULD BE HARMED BY THE FACT THAT WE PLAN ON CHANGING THE PROCESS OR WE MIGHT CHANGE A PROCESS ALL OF OUR BOARDS ARE CONTINUING TO MEET. THEY'RE CONTINUING TO MAKE DECISIONS AND I DON'T HAVE REPRESENTATION. SO THE PRIOR MAYOR HAS REPRESENTATION IN THE PRIOR DISTRICT TO US REPRESENTATION. WE WERE ALL GIVEN A MEMO BY THE CITY CLERK. WE WERE ALL GIVEN A DEADLINE TO TURN IN OUR APPOINTEES BY A CERTAIN DATE. I FULFILLED THOSE REQUIREMENTS I SHOULD NOT BE HARMED AND NEITHER SHOULD MY APPOINTEES OR RESIDENTS BECAUSE WE PLAN ON LOOKING AT A PROCESS WE PLAN ON LOOKING AT SOME BOARDS THE BOARDS CONTINUE TO MEET AND I DON'T HAVE REPRESENTATION. SO AGAIN I WOULD APPRECIATE THE COMMISSION ALLOWING MY APPOINTMENTS TO GO THROUGH ALL RIGHT. I HAPPEN TO HAVE AGREED WITH THE FACT THAT WE HAVE NEEDED TO LOOK AT THE STRUCTURE OF OUR BOARDS AS A WHOLE. WE HAVE BEEN DISCUSSING HOW MUCH POWER WE HAVE GIVEN TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD. WHEN WE DID OUR RULES AFTER FOR THREE YEARS AS LONG AS IT TOOK AND WE HAVE SOME OPEN QUALIFICATIONS THAT WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE POWERS ALIGNED WITH WHAT THE UNDERSTANDING OF THIS COMMISSION IS FOR THAT BOARD AND WHAT THEY WERE TO DO. WE'VE ALSO HAD CONCERNS AS THE VICE MAYOR SAID WHETHER SOME OF OUR OTHER BOARDS ARE FUNCTIONING IN THE MANNER IN WHICH THEY ARE THERE. SOME OF THE CONCERNS WE'VE EXPRESSED IN OTHER MEETINGS IS WE WOULD HATE TO SAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICES BOARD. BUT WE ARE NO LONGER HAVING THIS BOARD AND CREATE THAT KIND OF FRICTION. WE ALSO HAVE IN MY OPINION SOME STRUCTURAL ISSUES WITH THE WAY WE APPOINT FOR SOME OF THE ALTERNATES AND WE DON'T HAVE A PROCESS IN PLACE IN MY OPINION RIGHT NOW TO FINISH THAT I'LL BE ABLE EXPLAIN IT ANOTHER TIME IT WAS FOR A CONVERSATION WE WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE WHEN WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE DISCUSSING THE BOARDS THAT WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO DISCUSS SINCE NOVEMBER AND ACTUALLY WHEN EVERYBODY IS BEING PUT IN WE'VE SAID WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO DISCUSS THIS IN DECEMBER. I WILL ASK YOU YOUR QUESTION NOW SINCE OBVIOUSLY YOU WANT TO ASK ME. RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A PROCEDURE IN PLACE FIRST AS THE MAYOR AND THE COMMISSION GET TO CHOOSE THE ALTERNATES. 
          BLESS YOU. I AM IF WE ALL PUT THEM FORTH AND WE DON'T KNOW WHO IT'S NARROWED DOWN TO HOW ARE WE PICKING OUT OUR ALTERNATES. THAT WAS NOT EXPLAINED IN THE PROCESS. 
          THAT'S SOMETHING THAT IS ASIDE ONE OF THE ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION COMMISSIONER GALEN YOU'VE MADE YOUR POINT. IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A BANTER BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THE TWO OF US. YOU'VE MADE YOUR POINT ON HOW YOU FEEL SO TO THE CHAIR TO THE CHAIR. I'M NOT TRYING TO BANTER. WE TALK A LOT ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS OUR STRATEGIC PLANNING BUT AS IT DOES NOT STOP THE NORMAL COURSE OF BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS AND THE NORMAL COURSE OF BUSINESS OPERATION IS NOT BEING STOPPED AT THIS TIME I KNOW YOU FEEL PERSONALLY YOU DO NOT HAVE REPRESENTATION BUT THERE IS A LIMIT TO LIVE IN DISTRICT 2 COMMISSION OF BOTH GALLON. SORRY COMMISSIONER GALLON. YES I AM TRYING TO SAY WHAT I HAVE TO SAY. YOU'VE MADE YOUR COMMENT. THIS IS NOT A PERSONAL ITEM DESPITE MUCH OF WHAT POLITICS HAS INFUSED THEMSELVES INTO BUSINESS DECISIONS. AND I TRULY AS MUCH AS WE ARE IN A POLITICAL BUILDING I CANNOT STAND POLITICS. THERE'S SIMPLE MATTERS OF FACT AND I'M GETTING THE CHANCE TO EXPRESS MY OPINION ON IT SO I STILL HAVE CONCERNS WITH THE BOARDS AND THE POWER ON WHICH WE HAVE GIVEN THEM OR NOT GIVEN THEM AND FOR THEM TO BE DOING WHAT WE AS THE COMMISSION HAS SOUGHT FROM THESE COMMITTEES TO DO AND ASSIST US AS A COMMISSION. THAT IS MY COMMENTS ON IT NOW. AT THIS TIME NO OTHER COMMENTS ON THE RECORD SAYING THAT WE DO NOT HAVE ANY. I WILL CALL THIS FOR A VOTE COMMISSIONER GALEN YES. COMMISSIONER BOLTON. YES. VICE

Commission District(s):	District 4]
MOVING ON TO OUR QUASI JUDICIAL HEARINGS. OUR FIRST ONE IS T O 2 3 9 2 GOLIATH. THE SAD SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH REZONING COMMISSION ATTORNEY PLEASE READ. AH YES. 
          LAY OFF THE MOTHER MAINLY I THANK YOU. AS WE KNOW I CAN'T EVEN SAY MY NAME. SOME DAYS I DO APOLOGIZE. FORGIVE ME MARY COMMISSIONER AND I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE PRIMER TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU WOULD HAVE ASKED FOR ONE WITH REGARD TO ITEMS OF ELEVEN A ELEVEN B ELEVEN C AND ELEVEN D ALL OF WHICH ARE GOVERNED BY THE CITY CODE ALL OF WHICH ARE GOVERNED BY A CODE THAT YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH IN THE CONTEXT OF PROCESS AND PROCEDURE. BUT FOR THOSE IN THE AUDIENCE WHO DON'T KNOW THAT AND ARE GOVERNED BY THAT PROCESS ALLOW ME TO GIVE A JUST A BRIEF PRESENTATION REGARDING QUASI JUDICIAL ITEMS THAT WILL FOLLOW FROM ITEM ELEVEN EIGHT BEGINNING WITH ITEM ELEVEN A THE ORDINANCE THAT IS IN CHARGE WITH THIS DISCUSSION IS SECTION 2 THE ACT 367 WHICH EXPRESSLY TELLS US IT IS THE INTENT OF THE CITY TO PROVIDE AN EQUITABLE AND EFFICIENT MANNER FOR THE CITY TO HERE MATTERS WHICH ARE CONSIDERED CLERGY DIVISIONAL IN NATURE NOTWITHSTANDING OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE CITY CODE SET FORTH IN THE CODE ITSELF. THE CITY'S PROCEDURES TO BE UTILIZED WITH JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS THESE PROCEDURES SHALL BE UTILIZED BY THE CITY COMMISSION AND ALL CITY BOARDS IN REGARDS TO HEARINGS ON JUDICIAL MATTERS IN WHICH THEIR BODY IS THE FINAL AUTHORITY. 
          AS YOU KNOW IN THIS PARTICULAR CONTEXT THESE ARE SPECIFIC DIFFERENT THERE THESE ARE DIFFERENT KINDS OF HEARINGS. THE MAYOR IS CALLED THE MATTER TO ORDER THE MATTERS TO BE HEARD WILL BE CONSIDERED AND SPECIFICALLY READ INTO THE RECORD. SO FOR EXAMPLE 11 A IS A REZONING REZONING IS LAND USE AMENDMENTS SITE PLANS ET CETERA ARE ALL GOVERNED BY THE SECTION OF A CODE. I HAVE MADE REFERENCE TO SECTION 2 3 
          [02:35:04]
OR 3 DASHA TUDOR 367. AS YOU KNOW THE PROCESS IS AS FOLLOWS THE CITY STAFF WILL MAKE PRESENTATIONS TO THE BOARD. THEY'LL OFFER ALL RELEVANT AND PERTINENT DATA DOCUMENTS LETTERS MEMOS ETC. TO THE RECORD INCLUDING THE INFORMATION WHICH THEY BELIEVE TO BE PERTINENT TO THE PRESENTATION FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL ITEM. 
          NEXT THE PETITIONER OR THE PROPERTY OWNER OR THE APPLICANT WILL PRESENT ALSO TO THE CITY COMMISSION THEY'LL SUBMIT ANY OTHER RELEVANT DATA DOCUMENTS OR MATERIALS THAT THEY BELIEVE TO BE HELPFUL FOR YOU IN MAKING YOUR DECISION WITH REGARD TO A QUOTE JUDICIAL ITEM. THEREAFTER THAT WOULD BE PUBLIC COMMENTS AND AS YOU KNOW THERE ARE SEVERAL SEVERAL DIFFERENT KINDS OF MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC. THERE ARE THOSE WHICH ARE SIMPLY PUBLICLY INTERESTED PARTIES WHO HAVE COME OUT TODAY TO LOOK AT AND TO THINK ABOUT THIS ITEM. AND THERE ARE THOSE WHICH ARE CALLED AFFECTED PARTIES AFFECTED WITH AN A AND AFFECTED PARTIES ARE PERSONS NATURAL OR CORPORATE WHO IS THE OWNER OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY OR WHO OWNS PROPERTY WITHIN 400 FEET OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AS LISTED IN THE RECORDS OF THE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER WHO RESIDES IN OR OPERATES A BUSINESS WITHIN 400 FEET OF A SUBJECT PROPERTY SO THERE MAY BE SOME NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE TODAY FOR EXAMPLE WHO RECEIVED PHYSICAL NOTICE OF TODAY'S HEARING ON ANY ONE OF THE ITEMS BEFORE THE COMMISSION THIS MORNING. TO THE EXTENT THOUGH THAT ALL SPEAKERS WILL BE SWORN THE CLERK WILL SWEAR IN ANY AFFECTED PARTY ANY PUBLICLY INTERESTED PARTY THE APPLICANT STAFF AND ANY BODY ELSE WHO'S COME BEFORE THE COMMISSION TO GIVE SWORN TESTIMONY. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE EACH SPEAKER WILL SPEAK UNDER SWORN TESTIMONY ONCE THEY SPEAK THE COMMISSION THROUGH THE MAYOR WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING PROCESS AND ALLOW THE COMMISSION TO DEBATE THE SUBJECT MATTER. COUPLE OF OBSERVATIONS FOR THE RECORD. 
          THIS IS COME UP IN PRIOR OCCASIONS. THE AMERICAN GENERAL ALSO DID THEIR DISCLOSURE. SO FOR EXAMPLE IF ANY ONE OF THE APPLICATIONS YOU'VE HAD A CONVERSATION WITH A CONSULTANT A LAWYER WHOEVER MAY BE THEM MIGHT HAVE TALKED WITH YOU ABOUT ANY ITEM BEFORE YOU UNWISE IE YOU'LL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY BEFORE THE HEARING BEGINS TO DISCLOSE THOSE CONTACTS NOT ANY OF WHICH BY THE WAY ARE UNLAWFUL THEY'RE JUST SIMPLY DISCLOSURES AND IT'S PERFECTLY LEGALLY PERMITTED TO HAVE THOSE THOSE EXCHANGES. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT POSSIBLE THE COMMISSION WILL ALSO BE CONSIDERING ALL DECISIONS OF THE COMMISSION WILL BOTH BE BASED UPON SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE. YOU'VE HEARD THAT PHRASE BEFORE YOU'VE SEEN DISCUSSION OF THAT ISSUE BEFORE COMPETENCE SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE IS A TERM OF ART AS DEFINED BY THE CASE LAW. IT'S DEFINED BY YOUR REVIEW COMPETENCE SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE MUST BE EVIDENCE WHICH IS RELIABLE OR CREDIBLE COMPETENCE SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE MUST BE FAT GOD BLESS YOU MUST BE FACTUALLY BASED AND NOT UNSUPPORTED WITH GENERALIZED STATEMENTS. IT ALSO MUST DO MORE THAN MERELY CREATE A SUSPICION OR GIVE EQUAL SUPPORT TO INCONSISTENT INFERENCES. COMPETENT EVIDENCE SUBSTANTIAL COMMON EVIDENCE POSSESSES SOMETHING OF A SUBSTANTIAL AND RELEVANT NATURE WITH CONSEQUENCES AND ALSO MUST NOT CONSIST OF VAGUE OR UNCERTAIN OR RELEVANT MATTERS NOT CARRYING THE QUALITY OF PROOF. THE REASON THAT WE HAVE THIS DISCUSSION THIS MORNING IS BECAUSE THERE ARE PROPERTY OWNERS COMING BEFORE YOU THAT OWN REAL ESTATE. THEY DERIVE CERTAIN CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS TO MAKE PRESENTATIONS AND TO DEVELOP THEIR PROPERTY OR USE THEIR PROPERTY AS THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO DO SO UNDER THE FLORIDA CONSTITUTION STATUTE THE CONDITION DIGNIFIES THAT THEREFORE THERE'LL BE PRESENTATIONS ON BOTH SIDES. BUT THIS IS NOT JUST A GLOBAL IN ANY ONE OF THE INSTANCES TODAY. THIS IS NOT JUST A GLOBAL ISSUE OF LAND USE CHANGES. THESE ARE SPECIFIC ISSUES BEFORE THE COMMISSIONS SO FOR EXAMPLE AN ELEVEN A IT IS IN FACT A REZONING 11 B. IT'S A SMALL SCALE LAND USE AMENDMENT GOVERNED ALSO BY THE KYC ORDINANCE 11 C A REZONING AND THE ALLOCATION OF FLEXIBILITY UNITS WHICH YOU HEAR MORE ABOUT FROM STAFF. AND FINALLY 11 D WHICH IS A SITE SPECIFIC SITE PLAN WITH CERTAIN SPECIAL EXCEPTIONS OR VARIANCES CONTAINED THEREIN. TO THE EXTENT THEN THAT YOU WILL CONSIDER THESE ISSUES ON THE RECORD AND ON EVIDENCE PRESENTED YOU WILL NOT ACT IN AN ARBITRARY WAY OR A CAPRICIOUS WAY OR IN A WAY WHICH IS A DEPARTURE FROM WHAT IS CALLED THE ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS OF LAW. YOU WILL HAVE THE DISCUSSION WITH THE APPLICANT YOU'LL HAVE THE DISCUSSION WITH THE STAFF YOU LISTEN TO THE EVIDENCE AND THEN YOU ULTIMATELY WILL MAKE A DECISION. QUASAR ADDITIONAL MEANS LIKE A JUDGE BECAUSE THESE ARE NOT JUST FOR EXAMPLE YOU PASS THE BUDGET ORDINANCE AMENDMENT IF YOU MOMENTS AGO. THAT'S NOT QUASAR. THAT'S THAT'S A FINANCIAL ISSUE FOR THE CITY. 
          YOU'VE CONSIDERED IT YOU PASSED IT THE STATUTE REQUIRES A TRUE UP AT THE END OF EVERY FISCAL YEAR YOU'VE DONE THAT. THESE ARE SITE SPECIFIC ISSUES AFFECTING REAL ESTATE IN THE CITY. TO THAT EXTENT EACH APPLICANT THAT COMES BEFORE HE'S GIVEN THE SAME DUE PROCESS RIGHTS AND THEIR TWO SETS OF DUE PROCESS RIGHTS ONE OF WHICH IS NOTICE WHICH IS THE NOTIFICATION THAT YOU NEED TO BE AT A HEARING AND YOU NEED TO BE GIVEN THAT APPROPRIATELY AND THEN WHAT'S CALLED SUBSTANTIVE DUE PROCESS WHICH IS THE RIGHT TO BE GIVEN A FULL FAIR AND COMPLETE HEARING. EVERY APPLICANT BEFORE THIS COMMISSION RECEIVES A FULL AND FAIR HEARING AND BASED UPON THE FACTS THE CIRCUMSTANCES THE TESTIMONY THE EVIDENCE THE SWORN TESTIMONY EVIDENCE AND 
          [02:40:02]
SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE PROVIDED FOR IT FOR YOU. IN EACH INSTANCE FOR ALL THESE ITEMS ANY OF THE BACKUP DATA OR MATERIAL THE RECORDS OR MATERIALS THAT WERE PROVIDED TO THE PLANNING BOARD THROUGH THE STAFF OR BY THE APPLICANTS ARE INCORPORATED INTO YOUR REVIEW TODAY AND A SUPPLEMENTAL DATA WHICH COMES TO THE COMMISSION. THEY WOULD BE OFFERED UP BY STAFF THROUGH MAXINE CALLOWAY OR MR. ZUCKER OR PRESENTED BY ANY BY THE OTHER SIDE BY THE APPLICANT OR BY THE PETITIONER. THESE ARE THE PROCEDURES THAT ARE IN YOUR CODE. I'M JUST SIMPLY TRYING TO BREAK THEM DOWN FOR YOU FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO CAME OUT TODAY TO UNDERSTAND BEST HOW THE SYSTEM HOW THE SITUATION WORKS. AT THE END OF THE DAY HOWEVER THE END RESULT IS IS THAT MERRILL CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING OR DELIBERATE. 
          YOU'LL DEBATE YOU'LL MAKE A DECISION AND THAT DECISION WILL BE BASED UPON THE FACTS THE CIRCUMSTANCES AND THE EVIDENCE PRESENTED BEFORE YOU CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS POINT AND ABSENT ANY QUESTIONS I'D LIKE TO PROCEED. MADAM MAYOR WITH ITEM ELEVEN A AND READ THE ITEM INTO THE RECORD WITH YOUR PERMISSION. YES PLEASE. THANK YOU. OK.

          [02:45:02]
LOCKED. THANK YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON MAYOR. MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION MAXINE CALLAWAY DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FOR THE RECORD AS MENTIONED IN THE ITEM. THIS IS A REZONING APPLICATION FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 6 7 5 5 NORTH UNIVERSITY DRIVE. THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL ZONING DESIGNATION AND WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED IS A REZONING TO YOUR M YOU END WHICH IS YOUR MIXED USE NEIGHBORHOOD DESIGNATION. THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN DISTRICT 4 AS A SURVEY JUST SHOWING THE PROPERTY IN TOTAL IS FIVE POINT SIX SIX ACRES IN SIZE. THE NORTH PORTION IS ONE POINT NINE FOUR ACRES THAT'S THE PORTION THAT CURRENTLY HOUSE THE EXISTING CHURCH AND IN THE SOUTHERN PORTION IS THREE POINT SEVEN ONE ACRES. THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING OF COURSE TO COMBINE THE PROPERTY AND TO DEMOLISH AND CONSTRUCT A NEW SANCTUARY. AND THIS IS JUST SHOWING YOU WHERE IT'S LOCATED. SO THE YELLOW IS THE LOT THAT HOUSES THE EXISTING CHURCH AND THEN THE SOUTHERN PORTION IS CURRENTLY VACANT. ONCE AGAIN THE REASON AN APPLICATION IS TO REASON FROM OUR NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL ZONING DESIGNATION WHICH YOU SEE IN THAT LIGHT PANE TO YOUR END YOU END ZONING DISTRICT TO FACILITATE THE CONSTRUCTION OF YOUR CHURCH. THIS IS SOME INFORMATION FROM OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OR NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL ZONING DESIGNATION IS PRIMARILY ARE LOW INTENSITY ZONING DESIGNATION THAT REALLY FACILITATES AND ACCOMMODATE SMALL SCALE RETAIL AND PERSONAL SERVICE USES THAT SUPPORTS THE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES IN CLOSE PROXIMITY. YOUR M U N MIXED USE NEIGHBORHOOD ZONING DESIGNATION IS ONE OF THREE OF OR MIXED USE DESIGNATION. ALL THREE ALLOWS BY RIGHT. CHURCHES. SO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL ZONING DESIGNATION DOES NOT ALLOW PLACES OF ASSEMBLY OR CHURCHES AND YOUR MQ N AND YOUR M U C AND M YUJI. ALL THREE ALLOWS IT BY RIGHT. HENCE THE REASON FOR THE REZONING APPLICATIONS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL DESIGNATION DOES NOT SUPPORT PIECES OF ASSEMBLY AS A PART OF THE CODE. THERE ARE NINE STANDARDS THAT MUST BE MET AS A PART OF A REZONING APPLICATION FOR THE MOST PART THE APPLICANT HAS MET ALL THE STANDARDS. THE APPLICATION IS CONSISTENT WITH A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN GIVEN THAT THE REZONING WILL BE SUPPORTED BY THE UNDERLYING LAND USE IN THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP. IT IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH THE PROVISIONS OF OUR CODE OF ORDINANCES. THE APPLICANT HAS DEMONSTRATED THAT THERE IS A COMMUNITY NEED. THE CHURCH IS EXPANDING AND SO THEY FEEL THEY NEED A BIGGER SANCTUARY TO ACCOMMODATE THE CONGREGATION AND THEY HAVE ALSO DEMONSTRATED THAT IT'S REQUIRED BY THE CHANGING CONDITIONS WHICH IS THE POPULATION OF THEIR CHURCH GROWTH. HOWEVER IT STOPS OPINION THAT IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE EXISTING AND THE PROPOSED USES THAT ARE AROUND IT GIVEN THE FACT THAT IT WOULD BE A M U N DESIGNATION THAT WOULD BE SURROUNDED BY N C DESIGNATION ALL AROUND. SO IT'S SOMEWHAT TANTAMOUNT TO SPOT ZONING SO IT WOULD BE AN EMU WHEN THAT'S SURROUNDED TO THE WEST WITH NC TO THE WEST WITH NC AND THEN TO THE SOUTH WITH YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL DESIGNATION. IN ADDITION WHAT IT WOULD NOT RESULT IN A LOGICAL AND ORDERLY DEVELOPMENT PATTERN PRIMARILY BECAUSE OF A REDEVELOPMENT PLAN WE ADOPTED THAT IN 2000 AND 14 THAT PLAN SETS FORTH SOME ORDERLY DEVELOPMENT ALONG THAT CORRIDOR. THIS PROJECT IS LOCATED IN OUR UNIVERSITY MEDICAL MILE CORRIDOR THAT DOES NOT SUPPORT FOR A CHURCH. SO FOR THOSE REASONS STAFF DOES NOT BELIEVE THOSE TWO STANDARDS WERE MET HOWEVER G H AND I. THEY WERE MET. THIS WOULD RESULT IN THE DEVELOPMENT. THERE'S CAPACITY THAT'S AVAILABLE FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT. THERE'S NO IMPACT TO THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND THERE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE PUBLIC INTEREST AND THE PURPOSE AND THE INTENT OF OUR CODE. GIVEN THAT THE CODE DOES ALLOW FOR REZONING APPLICATION TO MOVE FORWARD IT'S FOR THESE REASONS THAT THE PLANNING BOARD CONSIDERED THE ITEM AT THEIR APRIL 3RD MEETING THE UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE ITEM SUBJECT TO TWO CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL THAT IS LISTED IN THE STAFF REPORT AND OUTLINE IN THIS PRESENTATION THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL EXECUTE A UNITY OF TITLE FOR THE SUBJECT PROPERTIES TO COMBINE THEM AND THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL MITIGATE THE PARKING OF VEHICLES ON THE ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL ZONE VACANT LOT OWNED BY THE CHURCH THROUGH THE INSTALLATION OF A LANDSCAPE BUFFER APPROVED BY CITY STAFF STAFF IS ALSO RECOMMENDED APPROVAL AND IN TERMS OF NEXT STEP. THIS IS JUST THE REZONING APPLICATION SO THE SIDE PLAN IT'S CURRENTLY TRACKING THROUGH DRC. THAT WILL THEN BE SCHEDULED FOR A PUBLIC HEARING SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          MADAM MAYOR JUST FOR THE RECORD THE MAGAZINE HAS OFFERED INTO THE RECORD HER POWERPOINT PRESENTATION WHICH IS NOW PART OF A SUPPLEMENTAL RECORD THAT YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU TODAY FOR CONSIDERATION ALONG WITH ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS PREVIOUSLY 
          [02:50:01]
SUBMITTED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION PLANNING BOARD AND TO STAFF AS WELL. THANK YOU. THE APPLICANT. I KNOW YOU STOOD FOR JUST IN CASE WE NEED ANY QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU WISH TAD AND EVEN I JUST FOR THE RECORD PLEASE FOR YOUR CITY IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO PUT YOUR ADDRESS. IT'S NOEL ROSE 7 5 5 0 NORTH UNIVERSITY DRIVE THE PASTOR OF THE ALLEY OFF A CHURCH I WOULD BE REMISS IF AS A PASTOR I WOULD NOT SEE AN OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK. LET ME BEGIN BY THANKING THE CITY FOR CONSIDERING THIS APPLICATION WE HAVE BEEN EXISTING IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK SINCE 2000 AND 2 I CAME ON BOARD IN 2011 AND SINCE THEN WE HAVE SEEN A DRAMATIC GROWTH IN OUR CONGREGATION. I'M NOT TOO SURE IF IT IS THE RESULT OF MY EFFORTS AND SMILE BUT WE HAVE BEEN GROWING IN LEAPS AND BOUNDS WE'VE SINCE OUTGROWN OUR CURRENT STRUCTURE. WE'RE LOOKING AT EXPANSION NOT JUST IN TERMS OF A PLACE OF WORSHIP FOR OUR CONGREGANTS BUT SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO BE OF TREMENDOUS USE IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK. OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CITY INCLUDES ARE OUR YOUTH ADOPTING A STRETCH OF HIGHWAY IN THE CITY WHERE THEY GET INVOLVED. ALSO WE SEEK TO HAVE AN ANNUAL HEALTHIER THAT IS OPEN TO OUR TO OUR RESIDENTS. SO WE'RE THINKING ABOUT THIS BUILDING NOT JUST IN TERMS OF A PLACE OF WORSHIP BUT A PLACE WHERE WE CAN CONTINUE TO GIVE EVEN MORE EFFECTIVE SERVICE TO THE CITY OF TAMARACK AND CERTAINLY ADD TO MAKE IT THE CITY OF OUR LIVES. AGAIN WE ARE HOPING THAT AS WE GO FORWARD WE CAN CONTINUE TO HAVE THAT MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIP AS WE SEEK TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF OUR CITIZENS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I SEE THAT THE VICE MAYOR WISHES TO SPEAK. THANK YOU MISS CALLAWAY AS USUAL DOES AN EXCELLENT JOB OF EXPLAINING THE BACKGROUND AND HOW WE GOT HERE AND WHY WE GOT HERE. WE ARE LOOKING FOR A REZONING ON THIS PROPERTY. I'D LIKE TO TAKE IT TO A MORE PERSONAL LEVEL. THIS CHURCH HAS BEEN OUR NEIGHBORS SINCE OWNING THE PROPERTIES SINCE 1996. 
          THEY'VE BEEN HERE FOR A VERY LONG TIME LIVE ON THIS PROPERTY. THEIR OFFICIAL OPENING WAS IN 1998. THEY ORIGINALLY STARTED WITH 35 MEMBERS. THEY NOW HAVE OVER 500 MEMBERS. THEY'VE GROWN. THEY HAVE OUTGROWN THEIR FACILITY. THEY ARE CURRENTLY LEASING SPACE AT ANOTHER CHURCH BECAUSE THE FIRE MARSHAL TOLD THEM THAT THEY WERE OVER CAPACITY SO LEASING THAT SPACE THAT'S TAKING MONEY THAT COULD BE GOING INTO THEIR CHURCH RATHER THAN LEASING SPACE. I HAVE BEEN TO THEIR CHURCH I HAVE LISTENED TO THEIR SERVICE AND WHAT I FOUND WERE CARING SHARING COMMUNITY PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY THEIR YOUTH GROUP GOES OUT EVERY SATURDAY TO FEED THOSE IN NEED. THEY HAVE CLOTHING THAT THEY'RE DISTRIBUTING AGAIN TO PEOPLE IN NEED. THEY ARE DOING WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN THE COMMUNITY. WHEN I ASKED THEM FOR HELP FOR THANKSGIVING BASKETS FOR THOSE IN NEED WHO WOULD NOT HAVE A THANKSGIVING THEY WERE THE VERY FIRST ONES TO STEP UP AND SAY WHEN DO YOU WANT THEM WHAT DO YOU WANT. AND WE'VE GOT THEM READY. THEY STEPPED UP TO THAT. WE'RE HERE TODAY. IN MY MIND TO DO THE RIGHT THING THIS IS THEIR PROPERTY. THEY HAVE BEEN GOOD NEIGHBORS WHATEVER WE HAVE ASKED OF THEM WHEN THE COUNTY WENT TO THEM ABOUT SIDEWALKS YES WHATEVER WE'VE EVER NEED. WE'VE NEVER EVEN PROBABLY KNOWN THEY WERE THERE. THERE'S NEVER BEEN AN INSTANCE THERE'S NEVER BEEN A PROBLEM. AT SOME POINT REGARDLESS OF THE ZONING AND I KNOW WE HAVE CHANGED IT AND WE AS A CITY ARE LOOKING TO PROGRESS WITH SOME NEW ZONING. BUT AT SOME POINT IN TIME YOU JUST HAVE TO DO THE RIGHT THING FOR THE RIGHT REASON. AND THEREFORE I AM FULLY SUPPORTING THIS REZONING. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VICE MAYOR MR. BOLTON. MADAM MAYOR MAYOR IF I MAY JUST A CRACK A RECORD IF YOU HAVE YOU'VE ANNOUNCED YET WHETHER ANY OTHER PUBLIC SPEAKERS WOULD CHOOSE TO BE HEARD ASIDE FROM THE APPLICANTS. YES WE WENT STRAIGHT 
          [02:55:01]
TO THIS BUT I WILL BE OPENING UP BECAUSE BECAUSE THE PUBLIC'S RIGHTS NEED TO BE ALSO PROVIDED. SO ASIDE FROM THE AFFECTED PARTIES BEING THE PETITIONER HAD THE CITY THEY NEED TO BE GIVEN THAT OPPORTUNITY. UNDERSTOOD. BUT WE DO HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY TO STILL MAKE SURE THAT THE COMMISSION IS HEARD OR OR IS IT ILLEGAL AND IMPROPER PROCEDURE IF YOU'RE YOU'RE STILL IN THE PUBLIC HEARING SIDE CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING. AND IF YOU IF YOU SO CHOOSE THEN PROCEED. SO COMMISSIONER BOLTON BEFORE WE GET TO YOU ARE THERE ANY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS MATTER SAYING THAT THERE ARE NO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WISHING TO SPEAK ON THIS MATTER LENGTH BRINGING BACK TO COMMISSIONER. THANK YOU THERE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 
          QUESTION FOR MISS COLORING. HAS THE CHURCH COME BEFORE THE COMMISSION IN THE PAST TO FOR THE SAME REASONS TODAY. NOT THAT I CAN RECOLLECT NO. AT LEAST NOT SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE. NOT BEFORE THE COMMISSION. OK. AND THE INTERVENING ACTIONS THAT ARE THERE IS SUBJECT TO COME AS THE CONDITIONS. HAVE THE CHURCH BEEN AMENABLE TO THESE. YES THEY'VE AGREED TO THE CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. OK. THANK YOU. AND JUST JUST A QUESTION TO PASTOR. YOU ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO ANSWER BUT IF YOU IF YOU WANT ME TO ASK A QUESTION IF YOU COULD JUST COME TO THE MICROPHONE. THE THE INTERVENING ACTIONS THAT THE CITY PUT FORWARD THIS MORNING AS A SUBJECT OF APPROVAL. IS YOUR CHURCH IS YOUR CHURCH AGREEABLE TO THESE OR ARE THEY TOO MUCH IN A SINGLE WORD. SURE. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU PASTOR. ALL RIGHT. THAT'S IT. I MEAN AS THE VICE MAYOR HAS SAID I BELIEVE THAT THE CHURCH ARE VERY GOOD NEIGHBORS. 
          I'VE GONE TO THE CHURCH A COUPLE OF THEIR MEMBERS ARE ACTUALLY MY NEIGHBORS AND MY NEIGHBOR KNOCKS ON MY DOOR ALL THE TIME. YOU BETTER VOTE FOR THEM. AND SO YOU KNOW IT'S A SENSE OF PRIDE THAT I AM ABLE TO TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF THEM TODAY. SO I'M I'M VERY MUCH GOING TO VOTE YES ON THIS AND I ASKED MY COLLEAGUES TO DO THE SAME. I BELIEVE THAT THE THAT THE CHURCH PLAYS A VITAL ROLE IN OUR COMMUNITY. AND THE OTHER THING WE WE CAN DO TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY HAVE A PRODUCTIVE TIME IN OUR CITY WE SHOULD DO THAT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SEEING THAT NONE OF MY OTHER GUYS LIKE TO SPEAK I WILL ASK THE QUESTION OF MAXINE. I AM FAMILIAR WITH THE UNITY OF TITLE BUT I'M NOT SURE IF OTHERS ARE. WILL YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT A UNITY OF TITLE IS. 
          SO BOTH PARCELS. IT'S A WAY OF LEGALLY COMBINING BOTH PARCELS SINCE IT WILL SERVE FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW FACILITY. SO IT COMBINES THEM IN A LEGAL WAY FOR AS LONG AS THE PROPERTIES ARE USED FOR A CHURCH THEN IT UNITES BOTH BOTH PARCELS. 
          AND IF BY CHANCE THE CHURCH YOU WISH TO SELL ANY PORTION OF THAT OTHER PART OF THE PROPERTY THEY WOULD STILL HAVE TO COME BEFORE THE COMMISSION REGARDING ANY ZONING OR MATTERS. AS LONG AS A CHURCH IS BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE A DEVELOPER THERE THEN IT CANNOT SEPARATE THE PROPERTIES FOR SALE. IT MUST BE UNITED FOR AS LONG AS THE CHURCHES DEVELOP ON THE PROPERTY. THANK YOU. I'M JUST CURIOUS IF THE SITE PLANS ARE GOING TO CONTINUE. HAVE A SOCCER FIELD THERE BECAUSE I KNOW WHEN I'M THERE ACROSS THE STREET ALL THE TIME. WHEN I WAS HEALTHY I ALWAYS WANTED TO COME ACROSS AND SEE IF I STILL KNOW HOW TO PLAY. THOSE WERE THE ONLY QUESTIONS I HAD JUST REGARDING THE UNITY OF TITLE. IF THERE ARE NO OTHER COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS AND I AM GOING TO ASK THE CITY CLERK HOW TO ROLL PLEASE LICENSE THEIR PLAQUE. YES COMMISSIONER BOLTON. YES COMMISSIONER FISHMAN. YES COMMISSIONER GALEN. YES. 
          MAYOR GOMEZ. YES. TEMPORARY ORDINANCE 23 92 HAS PASSED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU. ALL THE BEST. AT THIS TIME BEFORE WE GO ON TO THE LAST THROUGH THREE ITEMS THAT WE HAVE FOR QUASI JUDICIAL SEEING THAT IT IS TWELVE TWENTY ONE I AM GOING TO ASK IF WE CAN TAKE A 20 MINUTE BREAK. DOES THAT SATISFY ALL THE NEEDS OF EVERYBODY HERE. 
          THAT'S TOO SHORT TOO LONG. ANYBODY SPEAK NOW OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE BECAUSE I WILL LIKE TO PUT THIS BACK. TWELVE FORTY SHARP SO IF THERE'S THREE MEMBERS OF THE 
          [03:00:03]
COMMISSION HERE WE'RE MOVING FORWARD. SO TWELVE FORTY UNDERSTOOD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH WE'LL SEE YOU BACK HERE. TWELVE FORTY OKAY. WE'RE BACK ON THE RECORD NOW THAT WE HAVE TECHNOLOGY 245. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR PATIENCE. AND AT THIS TIME WE'RE

IN AT THIS TIME TO ASSIST THE CLERK I'LL READ OUT NAMES AND ASK FOR ANY KIND OF DISCLOSURES FROM THE COMMISSION. COMMISSIONER FISHMAN. MISSION GO. 
          COMMISSIONER BOLTON. YEAH. SORRY MA'AM. I WAS HUNGRY I WAS HAVING MY QUESTION WAS WHAT DID YOU SAY. HAVE YOU MET WITH ANYBODY ANY DISCLOSURES THAT YOU NEED TO MAKE FOR THE RECORD ON THE BAILEY PROJECT. YES. I MET WITH DWAYNE DICKERSON THE ATTORNEY FOR THE DEVELOPER AND ALSO THE DEVELOPER SEBASTIAN AND WHILST THEY WERE AT LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS I MET WITH A COUPLE MORE OF THEIR STAFF. TYPICAL NOT OF ME BUT THE LEAKS OF CARRIAGE HILLS RESIDENTS THAT DEMANDED SOME QUESTIONS ANSWERED AND I FEEL THAT IT WAS INCUMBENT UPON ME TO ASK THE DEVELOPER AND THE LOBBYISTS THE QUESTIONS BEFORE THE LAST THOSE QUESTIONS ON THE SUNSHINE TODAY. 
          THANK YOU. THANK YOU VICE MAYOR. YES I DID MEET WITH SCOTT BACKMAN AND DWAYNE DIXON REGARDING THIS PROJECT. DICKERSON SORRY I WILL GO BACK TO IT. I SEE COMMISSIONER JOHN COREY MYSELF ON THE RECORD I HAD A MEETING SCHEDULED WITH THE OWNER AND THE ATTORNEY DWAYNE WADE. DICKERSON HAD TO RESCHEDULE THE MEETING DID NOT MEAN PHYSICALLY BUT HAD A CALL LAST NIGHT AT ABOUT 8 O'CLOCK TO DISCUSS THIS PROJECT AND I SEE THAT COMMISSIONER FISHMAN LIKED TO SPEAK AS WELL FOR CLARIFICATION FROM OUR CITY ATTORNEY. IF THE MEETING HAPPENS HERE IN THE CITY IN CITY HALL IT IS NOT REQUIRED FOR ME TO ANNOUNCE THAT CORRECT. IT IS BECAUSE I KNOW THAT UNDER THE EQUATION ADDITIONAL ORDINANCE YOU'RE REQUIRED TO IN THE CONTEXT OF THE CODE. 
          IT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT THAT YOU DISCLOSE IT FOR THE BROWARD COUNTY ETHICS CODE PURPOSES. SO FOR THE ETHICS CODE IT'S THAT THE LOBBYIST OR THE INDIVIDUAL VISITING YOU THEY NEED TO SIGN THE AT THE VISITOR LOG. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DISCLOSE IT IN THAT REGARD BUT UNDER THE QUASI JUDICIAL ORDINANCE YOU HAVE TO MAKE A DISCLOSURE ABOUT ANY CONTACT. MY APOLOGIES THEN YES I DID A CLOSE CLOSE ALIGNMENT. YES. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND AS FOR MY DISCLOSURES YES I HAVE MET WITH THE RETURNING DWAYNE DICKERSON AND SEBASTIAN IN MY OFFICE. I ALSO ATTENDED TWO MEETINGS WITH THE COMMUNITY THE LIKES OF CARTELS SO RESIDENTS THERE AND I ALSO WAS AT THE MEETING WHERE DWAYNE AND TEAM WERE THERE AS WELL. AND IT WAS DULY NOTED MEETING AS COMMISSIONER BOLTON AND MYSELF WERE IN ATTENDANCE SEEING THAT OUR DISCLOSURES ARE COMPLETE WE HAVE A MOTION WE NEED EMOTIONS. YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAD A MOTION FOR BOTH THAT WERE READ. BUT I WANTED TO BE CLEAR THAT WE'RE GONNA GO THROUGH THE PRESENTATION. AS WITH EVERYTHING TOGETHER BUT WE WILL VOTE ON IT SEPARATELY EACH AND ANGELA COREY THERE. AND AT THIS TIME THE NEED TO SWEAR IN ALL WITNESSES. YES PLEASE. AND ANY WITNESSES WHO CAME AROUND SO TO SPEAK. SUSAN RICE 
          [03:10:03]
EVEN IF YOU MAY SPEAK THE CLERK WILL NOW SWEAR YOU IN AGAIN FAIRLY PAINLESS. RAISE YOUR HAND AND LISTEN CAREFULLY. DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM THAT THE TESTIMONY THAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO PROVIDE SHALL BE THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. FOR THE RECORD AGAIN MAYOR AND COMMISSIONER ANY DOCUMENTS EDIT OF ANY OR EVIDENCE OF ANY KIND WITH REGARD TO PRESENTATION BOTH OF THE PLANNING BOARD OR TO STAFF PREVIOUSLY REVIEWED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION BY YOURSELVES ARE ALL ALSO MADE PART OF THE RECORD TODAY SUPPLEMENTED BY ANY OFFERINGS THAT WERE GIVEN TODAY BY EITHER MAXINE CALLOWAY OR MR. DICKERSON ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU MAYOR. 
          MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION MAXINE CALLOWAY FOR THE RECORD. DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AS MENTIONED IN THE RECORD. THE REQUESTS GO THROUGH ALL THREE REQUESTS AS A PART OF THIS ONE PRESENTATION. IT'S A SMALL SCALE LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT FROM COMMERCIAL TO MEDIUM HIGH RESIDENTIAL OR REZONING OFF THE PROPERTY FROM YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL DESIGNATION TO MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL. AND THEN WE ARE ALSO ALLOCATING SOME FLEX UNITS 120 AND SIX POINTS SIX FOR GROSS FLEX ACRES TO THE PROPERTY TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT. THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY VACANT AND WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED IS A THREE STORY APARTMENT BUILDING. THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN DISTRICT 1 COMMISSIONER BOLTEN'S DISTRICT SO IT'S LOCATED AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF BAILEY ROAD ON ROCK ISLAND. THE PROPERTY'S FIVE POINT THREE NINE NET ACRES IN SIZE SIX POINT SIX FOR GROSS ACRES TO THE NORTH OF THE PROPERTIES TO SPRING BREAK. PARK IN NORTH LAUDERDALE IT'S A MULTI-FAMILY PROJECT THAT WAS DEVELOPED AT 10 DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE TO THE SOUND OF THE PROPERTIES. BANK OF AMERICA TO THE EAST ACROSS ROCK ISLAND IS LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS. I'M SORRY TO THE EAST WHICH IS NOT THAT TO THE WEST OF THE WEST WHICH IS THE GATE CONDOMINIUM WHICH IS MULTI-FAMILY INTO THE EAST IS LAKES OF CARRY TABLES AND GARDENS BOTH DEVELOPED AS MULTI-FAMILY PROJECTS. JUST SOME BACKGROUND ON THE PROPERTY. THE PROPERTY WAS PLANTED BACK IN 1984 AT THE TIME IT WAS PLOT IT PLOT IT WAS LEAKS OF CARRIAGE HILLS TO BACK IN 2000. THERE IS A RESTRICTION ON THE PLOT THAT RESTRICTS IT JUST TO COMMERCIAL USE AND CONVENIENCE STORES. THE APPLICANT IS WORKING WITH STAFF TO LIFT THAT RESTRICTION AND TO DO A FLAT NOTE AMENDMENT. SO AFTER THE ENTITLEMENT THAT PROCESS WILL BEGIN AND IN ADDITION TO THAT IN 2013 THE CITY COMMISSION APPROVED A SITE PLAN FOR A CHURCH TO BE DEVELOPED ON THE PROPERTY. 
          VERY LARGE CHURCH THREE STORIES FIVE HUNDRED AND SIXTY TWO PEOPLE IN THE SANCTUARY AND TWO HUNDRED PEOPLE IN THE FELLOWSHIP HALL. THIS APPLICATION IS TO CHANGE A CURRENT FEATURE LAND USE DESIGNATION WHICH IS COMMERCIAL COMMERCIAL DOES NOT ALLOW PURE RESIDENTIAL OR MULTI-FAMILY IN THAT DESIGNATION HENCE THE REASON FOR THE APPLICATION AND THE PROPOSED CHANGE IS FOR FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION OF MULTIFAMILY MEDIUM HIGH RESIDENTIAL NOT TO EXCEED TWENTY FIVE BILLION UNITS PER ACRE WHICH IS MORE CONSISTENT WITH THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT AND COMPATIBLE WITH WHAT'S AROUND THAT COMMUNITY BROWARD COUNTY LAND USE DESIGNATION IS COMMERCIAL. THAT DESIGNATION WOULD NOT CHANGE THAT WOULD REMAIN THE SAME AND THE COUNTY ALLOWS MUNICIPALITIES IN ORDER TO CONFORM WITH THEIR PLAN TO LOCATE FLIPS ACRES AND UNITS AND THAT HELPS US TO AVOID THE EXTENDED LAND USE PROCESS AT THE COUNTY LEVEL. SO IN THIS CASE FOR THIS APPLICATION WE WILL BE ALLOCATING ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FLEX UNITS AND SIX POINT SIX FOR A GROSS COMMERCIAL TO RESIDENTIAL ACRES AND THAT WILL ALLOW US TO AVOID THE LAND USE PROCESS WHICH CAN BE EXTENSIVE AT THE COUNTY LEVEL AND STILL BE CONSISTENT WITH THE COUNTY LAND USE PLAN. SO THIS CHART JUST SHOWS US WHAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE IN THE POOL SEVERAL MONTHS AGO THE CITY OF TAMARACK COLLAPSE ALL THEIR FLEX UNITS INTO ONE POOL AND SO WE HAVE SUFFICIENT FLEX UNITS AS WELL AS ACREAGE TO ALLOCATE TO THIS PROJECT. IF YOU LOOK AT THIS CHART YOU SEE WE CURRENTLY HAVE ONE THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE UNITS THAT ARE AVAILABLE CITYWIDE IN THE POOL WOULD BE ALLOCATED ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY TO THIS PROJECT WHICH WOULD LEAVE US WITH ONE THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY NINE. WE HAVE FIFTY SEVEN POINT TWO NINE COMMERCIAL TO RESIDENTIAL ACRES THAT'S AVAILABLE FOR ALLOCATION SIX POINT SIX FOUR TO BE ALLOCATED TO THIS PROJECT WHICH WOULD STILL LEAVE A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT WHICH IS FIFTY POINT SIX FIVE. THAT WOULD BE REMAINING IN IN ADDITION TO THE SMALL SCALE LAND USE AMENDMENT AND ALLOCATION OF UNITS THE APPLICANT IS ALSO ASKING TO REASON THE PROPERTY FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL DESIGNATION TO OUR MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL WHICH IS OUR R3 DESIGNATION TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN APARTMENT BUILDING CODE PROVIDES FOR FIVE REVIEW STANDARDS THAT ARE ENUMERATED IN OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS THAT WE USE FOR 
          [03:15:03]
SMALL SCALE LAND USE AMENDMENT ON THIS APPLICATION. THE APPLICANT AS MET ALL FIVE. THE ANALYSIS FOR THOSE CRITERIA AND STANDARD IS CONTAINED IN YOUR MEMO IN YOUR BINDER FOR THE ALLOCATION OF FLEX ACREAGE AND UNITS. THERE IS ALSO 3 4 STANDARDS THAT'S PROVIDED IN OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS THAT STOP LOOK AT TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THE APPLICANT HAS MET THOSE REQUIREMENTS. THOSE STANDARDS WERE MET BY THE APPLICANT AND THE ANALYSIS IS ALSO PROVIDED IN YOUR BACKUP PLAN YOUR MEMO AND FOR THE RE ZONING THERE ARE NINE STANDARDS THAT'S ENUMERATED IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS THAT THE APPLICANT HAS TO MEET STAFF HAS GONE THROUGH THOSE STANDARDS THOSE REVIEW AND ANALYSIS IS ALSO INCLUDED IN YOUR BACKUP INFORMATION AND IN YOUR MEMO AT THE APRIL 3RD PLANNING BOARD MEETING THE PLANNING BOARD MEMBERS LOOKED AT THE REASON THEN TO SMALL SCALE LAND USE AMENDMENT AND THE ALLOCATION OF FLEX ACRES AND UNITS AND THEY VOTED TO APPROVE ALL THREE APPLICATIONS WITH ONE CONDITION THAT THE APPLICANT SUBMIT THE APPROPRIATE APPLICATIONS TO BROWARD COUNTY IN ORDER TO RECERTIFY THE CITY'S LAND USE MAP STAFF IS ALSO RECOMMENDING APPROVAL JUST FOR THIS BODY TO UNDERSTAND THE NEXT STEPS. THE SITE PLAN AND THE VARIANCE PROCESS IS ALREADY SCHEDULE FOR THE PLANNING BOARD FOR THEIR JUNE 5TH 2019 MEETING. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT DWAYNE DIXON GOOD AFTERNOON. DWAYNE DICKERSON ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT. I'M AN ATTORNEY WITH LAW FIRM TO NAME MYSQL BACKMAN OFFICES AT 14 SD 4TH STREET IN BOCA RATON FLORIDA. THAT'S WHERE I WAS THE JAGUARS AND YOU HAVEN'T SWORN YES. YES SIR I'VE BEEN. I'VE BEEN SWORN IN HERE ACTING AS BOTH LAWYER AND ADVOCATE. YES SIR. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SO MY CLIENT IS THE CONTRACT PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY WHOSE ARENA CAPITAL LLC. AND I'M ALSO AUTHORIZED TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE OWNER WHOSE HARVEST PREPARATION MINISTRIES INC. WHO CURRENTLY OWNS THE PROPERTY. CAN YOU PLEASE PUT MY PRESENTATION AS ALWAYS YOUR STAFF GIVES A VERY THOROUGH PRESENTATION. 
          MISS CALLOWAY COVERED ALL THE PERTINENT INFORMATION AS WELL AS IN YOUR BACK ON MATERIAL SO I'M NOT GOING TO MOVE KIND OF FAST TO SOME OF THESE SLIDES SO WE DON'T REITERATE SOME OF THE POINTS THAT WERE MADE AND I'LL JUST HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE IMPORTANT POINTS. THE PROPERTIES CURRENTLY SHOWN HERE ON THE SOUTHEAST CORNER ITS GROSS ACREAGE IS SIX POINT SIX FOUR ACRES AND AS YOU ARE AWARE GROSS ACREAGE IS WHAT'S REQUIRED. WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT DENSITY IN APPROVED RESIDENTIAL UNITS FOR FOUR PARCELS THE APPLICATIONS WERE VERY THOROUGHLY COVERED BY YOUR STAFF WITH RESPECT TO THE LANE'S PLAN A MOMENT FROM COMMERCIAL TO MEDIUM HIGH 25 RESIDENTIAL. 
          THE REZONING FROM NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO OUR THREE MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL AND THEN THE ALLOCATION OF THE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FLEX UNITS MS CALLAWAY SHOWED YOU A MAP MINUS A LITTLE HIGHER SO YOU CAN SEE I'M REALLY BIG INTO VISUALS AND I THINK THIS MAP DOES A REALLY GOOD JOB OF SHOWING YOU THE CONSISTENCY AND COMPATIBILITY WITH WHAT'S SURROUNDING THE PROPERTY OUR PROPERTIES IN THE RED AND THEN THE LITTLE PIECE OF THE BOTTOM IS THE BANK OF AMERICA. EVERYTHING ELSE AS YOU CAN SEE IS SOME SHADE OF BROWN. BROWN IS RESIDENTIAL RED IS COMMERCIAL. THE DARKER THE BROWN COLOR THE HIGHER THE DENSITY. SO AS YOU CAN SEE WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO GO TO THE MEDIUM TO THE MEDIUM HIGH TWENTY FIVE. IF YOU START ON THE LEFT WHICH IS JUST WEST OF ROCK ISLAND YOU HAVE THE HIGH RESIDENTIAL 50 UNITS TO THE ACRE. AND THEN AS YOU CROSS OVER THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARE WE'RE REQUESTING THE TWENTY FIVE AND THEN CONTINUE TO STEP FURTHER IN A NEIGHBORHOOD STEPS DOWN TO 16. ALSO TO THE SOUTHEAST TO THE 25 AND SOME HIGH. BUT IT'S REALLY COMPATIBLE REQUESTS AND TRANSITION. NOW THE LANES PLAN AMENDMENT WOULD ALLOW US IF IT'S APPROVED BY RIGHT TO HAVE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY SIX TOTAL UNITS DUE TO THE SITE LAYOUT AND SEVERAL THE THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S A HIGH AMENITIES YOU KNOW DOG PARK CLUBHOUSE ORIENTATION OF THE PARKING WE HAVE SURPLUS PARKING. WE REDUCE THE TOTAL UNIT COUNT TO A HUNDRED AND TWENTY AND WE'RE GONNA CAP IT AT ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SO WE MADE SURE WE DIDN'T OVER EXPOSED THE SITE AND THAT DEVELOPMENT WAS CONSISTENT WITH THE SIZE OF THE SITE AND THE LAYOUT AND ORIENTATION OF THE SITE. AS PART OF THE 
          [03:20:04]
LANES PLAN A MINUTE WE WERE REQUIRED IN THE APPLICATION TO DO A TRAFFIC IMPACTS ANALYSIS AND WHICH YOU SEE AT THE TOP LINE IS THE CURRENT USES THAT ARE PERMITTED BY RIGHT. THE SITE IS CURRENTLY ZONED LAND ZONED COMMERCIAL AND IT'S LAND USE IS COMMERCIAL SO THAT TOP LINE SHOWS YOU WITH THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF DEVELOPMENT WITH THAT LAND DESIGNATION PURSUANT TO YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO DAY AND THAT'S COMMERCIAL. THE USE COMMERCIAL AT JUST OVER ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND SQUARE FEET. PURSUANT TO THE ITC CODE WHICH IS THE INSTITUTE OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERS WHICH IS THE HOLY GRAIL OF ALL TRAFFIC ALL YOUR CONSULTING MY CONSULTANT AND ANYBODY ELSE WILL USE THAT TO DETERMINE TRAFFIC COUNTS THAT WOULD SHOW A DAILY TRIPS COUNT OF SIX THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE DAILY TRIPS AND THE P.M. PEAK IS WHAT BROWARD COUNTY USES TO ASSESS LEVELS OF SERVICE AND TRAFFIC AT SIX HUNDRED AND THREE P.M. PEAK TRIPS PER DAY WHICH WE'RE ALLOWED TO DO BY RIGHT WITH VERY LITTLE DISCRETION AND MINISTERIAL APPROVALS FROM YOUR CITY. WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO GO TO IS AT A MAX WHICH WOULD BE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY SIX GARDEN APARTMENT UNITS THAT WOULD REDUCE THE TRIP DAILY COUNT TO ONE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND FOUR AND REDUCE THE P.M. PEAK HOUR TRIP COUNT TO ONE HUNDRED AND THREE. SO EVEN IF WE MAX OUT AT 166 WHICH I TOLD YOU ON THE RECORD WE'RE NOT WE'RE CAPPING AT 120. THE REDUCTION IN TRIPS FROM WHAT WE CAN DO TODAY BY RIGHT VERSUS WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING IS APPROXIMATELY FIVE THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE DAILY TRIPS AND 500 REDUCED P.M. PEAK HOUR TRIPS. SO AS YOU CAN SEE THIS PROPOSAL IS A MUCH GREATER USE FOR THE SITE MORE COMPATIBLE AND A GREAT REDUCTION COMPARED TO WHAT CAN BE DEVELOPED TODAY. THIS IS YOUR ZONING MAP AND AS YOU KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOING FROM NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO OUR THREE MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL ONCE AGAIN THE COLORS I THINK MAKE IT VERY CLEAR EVERYTHING SURROUNDING US IS BROWN. BROWN IS YOUR R THREE MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICT. THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE ACTING TO GO THROUGH OUR PROPERTIES THERE IN THE PINK. SO THE REQUEST IS EXTREMELY COMPATIBLE WITH EXISTING USES AND DIRECTLY IN LINE WITH YOUR CODE OF ORDINANCES. ONE OTHER THING I WANTED TO BRIEFLY DISCUSS IS THE CURRENT ZONING VERSUS THE PROPOSED ZONING CURRENT ZONING AT NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL PERMITS. AND I JUST GAVE YOU A FEW OF THE USES. YOU KNOW AUTO PARTS STORE CONVENIENCE STORES 24 HOUR COIN LAUNDRIES 24 HOUR GYMS ALSO ALLOW BASEBALLS RESTAURANTS SOME USES THAT ARE VERY HIGHLY INTENSE WHEN IT COMES TO TRIP GENERATION ONCE AGAIN. SO JUST SHOWING YOU THAT THIS USE COMPARED TO WHAT WE CAN DO TODAY BY RIGHT. THERE'S NO TIME RESTRICTION ON SOME OF THESE USES AS OPPOSED TO WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING AT 120 RESIDENTIAL UNITS WE BELIEVE WILL BE A SUBSTANTIAL DECREASE IN GENERATIONAL TRAFFIC DECREASE NUISANCES THAT COMMERCIAL UNIT DEVELOPMENTS NEXT TO RESIDENTIAL CAN SOMETIMES CAUSE AND ANY NEGATIVE IMPACTS THERE. SO BEFORE I TAKE QUESTIONS AS FEW OTHER THINGS I WANTED TO DISCUSS WITH YOU THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR QUITE SOME TIME. I BELIEVE WE'RE CLOSE TO TWO YEARS NOW AND IN THAT TIMEFRAME WE'VE HAD EXTENSIVE MEETINGS WITH YOUR CITY STAFF WITH THE COMMUNITY. 
          WE'VE HAD SUBSTANTIAL OUTREACH AND WE'VE HAD MULTIPLE MEETINGS WITH COMMUNITY AS YOU KNOW YOUR CODE REQUIRES US TO MEET HAVE ONE COMMUNITY MEETING WITH THE NEIGHBORS. WE'VE HAD I BELIEVE AT LEAST FOUR AND WE'VE ALSO HAD MULTIPLE CONVERSATIONS IN OTHER COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE ADJACENT COMMUNITIES. THE TWO MAJOR JASON COMMUNITIES ARE TWO ARE IF I COULD GO BACK THERE AND SHOW YOU WHAT'S GOING ON. OK. SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE RED BOX OF COURSE THAT'S OUR PROPERTY LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS IS THE MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT THAT'S TO OUR EAST OR TO THE RIGHT AND BELOW US TO THE SOUTH AND THEN TO THE LEFT IS THE GATE CONDO ASSOCIATION AND THEY'RE JUST WEST OF ROCK AND ROLL TO THE NORTH IS THE CITY OF NORTH LAUDERDALE. AND I'M HAPPY TO REPORT TODAY THAT BASED ON OUR MULTIPLE MEETINGS AND COMMUNICATIONS WITH LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS THEY DID PROVIDE A LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR THE BAILLIE SQUARE DEVELOPMENT. THAT LETTER WAS RECEIVED YESTERDAY. AND 
          [03:25:03]
ESSENTIALLY WHAT THE LETTER SAYS IN PART IS THAT THEY LISTED THEIR CONCERNS THAT THEY HAD AND WE MET WITH THEM AS LATE AS APRIL THE 15TH AND THEY HAD A LIST OF CONCERNS THAT THEY HAD AND WE WENT THROUGH EVERY SINGLE CONCERN AND CAME TO SOME COMPROMISE OF WHAT WE THOUGHT WE COULD DO TO MITIGATE OR ELIMINATE THAT CONCERN. AND SO THIS LETTER LISTS ALL OF THE COMMITMENTS THAT MY CLIENT ARENA CAPITAL AGREED TO AND BECAUSE OF THAT COMMITMENT AND PART THE LETTER READS BASED ON THESE COMMITMENTS FROM ARENA SHORT SIGHTED AS THERE ARE ANY COMMITMENTS. THE H ALWAYS EXECUTIVE BOARD HEREBY SUPPORTS THE BABY SCRIP PROJECT SO I WOULD LIKE TO PASS THIS LETTER OUT. SO THE MADAM CITY CLERK CAN HAVE IT FOR THE RECORD AND YOU CAN TAKE A VERY BRIEF LOOK AT IT. MAY I APPROACH MADAM CHAIR. THANK YOU COUNSELOR YOU'RE OFFERING THAT TO THE CLERK FOR A MATTER OF PUBLIC RECORD CORRECT IN THIS PROCEEDING. 
          THANK YOU. MARY YOU MAY ACCEPT THIS AS EVIDENCE ON BEHALF OF THE THE APPLICANT. 
          WE ACCEPT THIS AS EVIDENCE ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT. THANK YOU. YOUR POWERPOINT JUSTIFICATION IS A I ASSUME AND THIS WOULD BE EXHIBIT B. FOR THE RECORD YES SIR. THAT IS CORRECT. THANK YOU. I OFFERED I HAD A LETTER FOR THE CITY MANAGER I DIDN'T WANT HIM TO FEEL LEFT OUT BUT I THINK HE CAN GET THE GIST OF IT. YOU SHARE A COPY WITH HIM. SO AS YOU CAN SEE I THINK THIS IS REALLY A TESTAMENT TO THE HARD WORK THAT WE'VE DONE AND THE COOPERATION OF THE NEIGHBORS AND MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE MOVING FORWARD IN A DIRECTION THAT MINIMIZES ANY NEGATIVE IMPACTS TO THEM. 
          I'LL TELL YOU TODAY I'M BEFORE YOU FOR THE REZONING THE LANES SOME LANES PLANNED AMENDMENT AND THE FLEX ALLOCATION WE DO HAVE TO CONTINUE TO GO THROUGH A PROCESS OF FOR THE SITE PLAN. SO I THINK IT AT THE RIGHT AND APPROPRIATE TIME ALL OF THOSE SITE PLAN CONCERNS WILL BE ADDRESSED AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THIS ASSOCIATION TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO MITIGATE THEIR CONCERNS. ONE OTHER THING I WANTED TO MENTION REGARDING COMMUNITY OUTREACH IS WE ALSO DID REACH OUT TO THE GATE CONDO ASSOCIATION WHICH LIKE I SAID IS TO THE WEST AND THEY ALSO HAVE AGREED TO SUPPORT THIS PROJECT AND THEY ARE ISSUING A LETTER OF SUPPORT AS WELL SO SOON AS I RECEIVE THAT SHOULD BE TODAY I WILL SUBMIT THAT TO YOUR CITY STAFF AND MAKE SURE THAT THAT MAKES MAKES IT INTO THE RECORD FOR THE FUTURE HEARING. THANK YOU AND BLESS YOU TO THE LADY IN THE BACK. I DID HAVE TO YORK FROM HARVEST PREPARATION MINISTRIES WAS HERE. UNFORTUNATELY WAS HERE AT 9:00 AND SO HE HAD TO LEAVE BUT HE ASKED ME TO PASS HIS REGARDS AND HE WAS HERE WITH SOME OF THE SOME OF THE CHURCH CITIZENS AND THEY WANTED TO EXPRESS THEIR SUPPORT AND THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE HEARD AND MOVE FORWARD FOR THIS WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT ALSO OF COURSE WE MEET ALL OF THE CODE REQUIREMENTS ALL OF THESE APPLICATIONS MEET EVERY CRITERION AS YOU SAW WITH MISS CALLOWAY. THERE'S MULTIPLE CRITERIA REGARDING THIS THIS REQUEST AND WE MEET ALL OF THEM. AND SO YOU'RE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD DID RECOMMEND UNANIMOUSLY TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS WITH A RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL AND YOUR STAFF REPORT ALSO RECOMMENDS APPROVAL FOR. FOR THIS WE DO AGREE WITH THE STAFF CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THE RECORD WAS CLEAR WITH THAT. AND AT THIS TIME I WOULD LIKE TO PAUSE AND LEAVE SOME TIME. IF YOU DON'T MIND FOR RESPONSE TO COMMENTS AND TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE. SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND WE'RE GOING TO OPEN UP PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AT THIS TIME I KNOW WE HAVE TWO LADIES HERE WHO WISH TO BE HEARD AND THEN CAN ASK A FAVOR PLEASE. I KNOW IT'S JOLENE. I DON'T HAVE YOUR NAME.

GOMES BOTH CAME TO THE LAKES A CARROT CHILLS AND HAD A ROOMFUL OF TWO TO THREE HUNDRED CITIZENS OF LAKES OF CARE CHILLS IN OPPOSITION OF THIS PROJECT AND THE REASON WE HAVE SUCH OPPOSITION IS WHAT THEY'RE NOT TELLING YOU IS LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS GOING WEST ALL THE WAY TO NORTH LAUDERDALE BOULEVARD IS 
          [03:30:02]
ALL 55 PLUS COMMUNITY WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING IS TO PUT IN ALL AGE GROUP A RENTAL A CAR A RENTAL APARTMENT COMPLEX ON THIS SPACE. THIS SPACE ALSO HAS THE GREAT BIG HIGH WIRES FROM FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT WHICH NOW IS GOING TO FORCE THIS BUILDING TO BE AT THE VERY BACK OF THE PROPERTY BECAUSE IT CANNOT BE UNDERNEATH THE HIGH WIRES OF FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT. AND SO NOW THESE PEOPLE ON THIS BUSY BUSY CORNER OF BAILEY ROAD AND ROCK ISLAND RENTAL APARTMENTS OF ALL AGES IS GOING TO HAVE MOTHERS WITH STROLLERS DOG WALKERS TEENAGERS ON BICYCLES OR SKATEBOARDS AND THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE WALKING ON ROCK ISLAND IN BAILEY WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO IS COME WALK THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS WHICH IS 55 PLUS AND WE'RE ALL LOOKING FOR A NICE QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD WHICH IS WHY PEOPLE PURCHASE THERE. THE OTHER THING THAT TO MENTION IS THE CITY THE COUNTY OR WHEREVER THE ZONE THIS WAY BACK WHEN PUT THIS NEIGHBORHOOD COMMUNITY FOR A REASON. DOCTOR'S OFFICE DENTIST OFFICE BEAUTY SALON BARBER SHOP ALL OF THOSE TYPE OF FACILITIES WHICH WOULD BE PERFECT IN THIS AREA. SO WE'RE ASKING YOU TO KEEP THIS ZONED NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL AND A DEVELOPER CAN COME IN AND THEY CAN PUT IN YOU KNOW CPA OR ANY TYPE OF SLIGHT OFFICE. I RATHER DOUBT THERE'S GOING TO BE MUCH BUSINESS AT A 24 HOUR LAUNDROMAT IN THE NET NEIGHBORHOOD WITH 55 PLUS AND OLDER PEOPLE. I RATHER DOUBT THAT IF YOU PUT A GYM IN THERE IT'S GOING TO GET ANY BUSINESS BECAUSE MOST CONDOS HAVE THEIR OWN GYMS. AND SO WE'RE LOOKING AT WHO IT WOULD BE THAT WOULD ACTUALLY BE USING THAT AND IT WOULD BE A PRIME WITH 55 PLUS AN OLDER DOCTOR DENTIST CPA. THOSE TYPE OF SERVICES OR BEAUTY BARBER SHOP NAIL SALON LIKE THOSE WOULD BE PERFECT PLACES. AND THE REASON WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE WHOLE STREET BEING 55 PLUS IT WOULD BE VERY EASY FOR THESE PEOPLE TO GET IN AND OUT. AND WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT IN ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY APARTMENTS YOU HAVE MINIMUM OF TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY CARS. AND I INVITE YOU TO GO PARK OVER THERE AT FIVE O'CLOCK UNTIL 7 O'CLOCK EVERY NIGHT ON ROCK ISLAND AND BAILEY AND YOU WILL SEE CARS UPON CARS UPON CARS AT THAT LOCATION. AND NOW YOU ADD ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY APARTMENTS WHICH IS A MINIMUM OF TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY CARS PLUS THESE PEOPLE HAVE FAMILY FRIENDS OTHER GUESTS COMING BY THE TRAFFIC IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD IS GOING TO BE OUTRAGEOUS BECAUSE IT ALREADY IS TODAY.

SO ON THE WEST SIDE OF OUR PROPERTY ADJACENT TO ROCK ISLAND THERE IS A 100 FOOT FPL EASEMENT THAT OF COURSE YOU KNOW YOU CANNOT BUILD OR DO MUCH OF ANYTHING WITHIN ADDITIONALLY THERE EASEMENTS THAT BROWARD COUNTY HAS FOR SIDEWALKS THAT ARE ON OUR PROPERTY UNFORTUNATELY USUALLY THEY'RE IN THE RIGHT AWAY. BUT IN THIS CASE THEY'RE ON OUR PROPERTY. AND THEN THERE'S EASEMENTS ON THE EAST SIDE. SO THERE'S QUITE A BIT OF NON SELF INFLICTED HARDSHIPS THAT HAVE BEARING ON THE ORIENTATION AND LAYOUT OF THE SITE. HOW WILL YOU OVERCOME THE FBI CHALLENGES ON THE WESTERN END OF THE PROPERTY. WELL WE WERE ABLE I THINK ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS WE DID WAS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE RIGHT SIZE THE DEVELOPMENT. SO LIKE I TOLD YOU EARLIER WHILE WE'RE PERMITTED TO HAVE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY SIX UNITS THAT JUST WOULD NOT ALLOW US TO LAY IT OUT PROPERLY HAVE THE AMENITIES THAT WE'RE PROPOSING AND NOT BE OVERBEARING ON THE ADJACENT PROPERTY. SO THE FIRST THING WE DID WAS REDUCE THE SCALE OF THE DEVELOPMENT TO ALLOW FOR IT TO FIT PROPERLY AND TO DO SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT WOULD MAKE IT A HIGH QUALITY DEVELOPMENT. AND SECONDLY OF COURSE WORKING WITH YOUR STAFF WE WENT THROUGH SEVERAL ROUNDS OF DRC TO MAKE SURE FIRE AND ENGINEERING AND ALL OF THE OTHER PLANNING AND ZONING ALL OF THE CODE REQUIREMENTS WERE MET SO WE COULD ACCOMMODATE THAT. AND THEN YOU KNOW WE JUST HAD TO WORK WITH THE RIGHT THE RIGHT JURISDICTIONAL AUTHORITIES TO GET SOME THINGS DONE FOR EXAMPLE WE NEED TO VACATE AN EASEMENT ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE PROPERTY TO ACCOMMODATE THE WALL. SO THAT'S WHY THAT LANGUAGE IS IN THERE WORKING WITH YOUR STAFF AND ANY OTHER AUTHORITIES THAT HAVE JURISDICTION. YOU KNOW WE'RE GOING OUT OF OUR WAY WITH LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILL. ACTUALLY YOU KNOW AS WELL AS TYPICALLY HAPPENS ALL PROPERTIES HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN BUFFER BEFORE THEY START THEIR THEIR DEVELOPMENT OR THEIR RUN. UNFORTUNATELY LAKES OF CARE CHILLS BECAUSE IT'S A LITTLE OLDER I'M ASSUMING THEIR PROPERTY COMES RIGHT UP TO THE PROPERTY LINE. SO THEY REALLY HAVE NO BUFFER SO ADDITIONALLY FOR ALL THE BUFFERING THAT WE NEED TO DO TO MITIGATE ANY CONCERNS THAT HAS TO BE DONE ON OUR PROPERTY WHICH WE'RE OKAY WITH THE LANDSCAPING THE WALL AND SO MANY OTHER THINGS. BUT THERE ARE JUST SOME CHALLENGES THAT WE HAD TO WORK THROUGH. THANKFULLY WE'RE VERY CONFIDENT AND AS YOU CAN SEE STAFF IS AS WELL THAT WE ARE DOING THIS CORRECTLY AND WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES OF YOUR CODE OF ORDINANCES. OK. THE AMENITIES THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE ON PROPERTY ASSUME THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A SWIMMING POOL AND CLUBHOUSE ANNOUNCEMENTS TALK OR JUST THE SWIMMING POOL THERE WILL BE A SWIMMING POOL CLUBHOUSE PROPOSED DOG PARK CHILDREN PLAY AREA AND SO IT'S VERY HIGHLY MONETIZED AND THESE AMENITIES WILL THEY BE PROPERLY SECURED SO THAT PEOPLE FROM OTHER COMMUNITIES DON'T JUST WALK ONTO YOUR PROPERTY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT. THAT IS CORRECT. IN ADDITION TO THE WAR THAT WE DISCUSSED ON THE EAST SIDE THE OTHER AREAS OF THE PROPERTY THE NORTH SIDE THE WEST SIDE AND THE SOUTH SIDE WE'LL HAVE A FENCING SYSTEM TO KEEP ANY MONEY OFF THE PROPERTY. THAT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THERE. ADDITIONALLY THEY HAVE A KEY FOB SYSTEM WHERE YOU KNOW THE COMING AND GOING OF RESIDENTS ONLY OR THE GUESTS THAT THEY'RE WITH ARE ONLY CAN HAVE ACCESS. SO WE DO HAVE MECHANISMS THERE. WE ALSO HAVE A A D CALL PROGRAM WHERE ALL THE VEHICLES THAT ARE THERE WILL HAVE DECALS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN KEEP TRACK OF WHO'S THERE AND MAKE SURE WE KNOW WHO'S SUPPOSED TO BE THERE WHO'S NOT AND HANDLE IT THAT WAY. 
          [03:40:02]
YES SIR I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE GOING TO PROVIDE SECURITY FOR THE AMENITIES. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO PROVIDE SECURITY FOR THE ENTIRE BUILDING. THE ENTIRE PROPERTY. AND IF SO WHAT ARE THOSE SECURITY MEASURES THAT YOU'RE PUTTING IN PLACE AND THEY UNDERSTAND THAT CAMERAS ARE THE EASIEST THING BUT WILL YOU HAVE A GUARD GATE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT SO THAT THE PROPERTY IS SECURE. WE WILL HAVE ON SITE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AND THAT IS A PROGRAM THAT WE UTILIZE IT. OTHER PROPERTIES WHERE IT'S HANDS ON APPROACH SO THE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT TEAM WILL BE THERE ON SITE ON A DAILY BASIS ON THE WEEKENDS IT MAY BE ON CALL BUT ON A DAILY BASIS AS DEMAND REQUIRES OUR PROPERTY MANAGEMENT TEAM WILL BE ONSITE AND THAT SERVES MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS. FIRST OF ALL OBVIOUSLY THE AWARENESS THAT FOLKS ARE ON SITE REALLY HELP TO MAKE SURE THAT THINGS OPERATE SMOOTHLY. IF THERE IS ANY ISSUES WITH TRASH ALL THOSE THINGS YOU HAVE SOMEBODY THAT'S ON SITE THAT REALLY HAS A VESTED INTEREST IN MAKING SURE THE MAINTENANCE AND THE UPKEEP AND THE SECURITY IS TAKEN CARE OF PROPERLY. ALL THAT WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF ON SITE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT TEAM. 
          WE DID LOOK AT GATING BUT THE PROBLEM IS IS WHEN YOU DO GATES YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF WHAT THEY CALL THROAT DEPTH BEFORE YOU INTERFERE OR CONFLICT WITH MOVEMENTS PARTICULARLY STACKING OUT INTO ROCK ISLAND WHICH ARE WHERE OUR ACCESS POINTS ARE. SO UNFORTUNATELY WE DON'T BELIEVE THAT'S VIABLE WE THINK THAT COULD BE HARMFUL TO THE STACKING IN THE TRAFFIC OUT INTO ROCK ISLAND. SO NOT GATE THE GATE THAT WOULD BLOCK THE CARS FROM COMING AND GOING BUT OTHER THAN THAT THE PROPERTY WILL BE FULLY SECURED WITH FENCING SYSTEM AND WALL SYSTEMS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN CONTROL WHO'S THERE AND WHO'S NOT THERE. AND SPEAKING OF TRAFFIC A LOT OF THE RESIDENTS COMPLAINED ABOUT THAT. HOW DO YOU WHAT DID YOUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER SAY ABOUT THE CURRENT TRAFFIC THE ZOMBIE LEE ROAD AND ROCK ISLAND ROAD. HOW WILL YOUR 120 UNIT DEVELOPMENT AFFECT JUST THAT. SURE. SO AS PART OF OUR REVIEW PROCESS FOR THIS PROJECT WE HAD TO UNDERGO EXTENSIVE TRAFFIC ANALYSIS NOT ONLY WITH OUR PROPERTY BUT ADJACENT INTERSECTIONS AS WELL. SO WE DID THAT WE LOOKED AT OUR ACCESS POINTS. WE LOOKED AT ADJACENT ACCESS POINTS. WE LOOKED AT ADJACENT RIGHTS OF WAY AND THEN WE HAVE A TRAFFIC ENGINEER. THAT'S OUR CONSULTANT THAT PUTS TOGETHER A REPORT AND PRESENTS IT TO YOUR STAFF. ADDITIONALLY EVEN BEFORE THAT REPORT IS COMPILED AND COMPLETED OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER MEET WITH YOUR CITY ENGINEERS AND YOUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER AND YOUR DESIGN PROFESSIONALS TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE ON THE SAME PAGE OF WHAT THE METHODOLOGY IS GOING TO BE HOW MANY INTERSECTIONS WHAT TIME OF DAY HOW MANY DAYS DURING THE WEEK ARE YOU GOING TO HAVE THESE THIS ANALYSIS DONE. SO WE DID THAT COMPILED THE REPORT. AND USUALLY THERE'S SEVERAL MARKERS AND SOME OF IT'S OVER MY HEAD BUT THEY LOOK AT SOME THINGS THAT YOU WOULD SAY HOW MUCH ADDITIONAL DELAY ON THESE ADJACENT RIGHTS AWAY IS THERE GOING TO BE ONCE THIS PROJECT COMES ONLINE. THAT'S BASIC THAT WE ALL CONFER. HOW MUCH LONGER AM I GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT NOW THAT THESE NEW HUNDRED AND TWENTY UNITS COMES ONLINE AND OUR TRAFFIC CONSULTANT DETERMINE THAT AND I QUOTE FROM THE TRAFFIC STUDY WHICH IS PART OF THE RECORD MR. CITY ATTORNEY AND HAS BEEN SUBMITTED TO YOUR DEVELOPMENT STAFF FOR REVIEW AND FOR THE RECORD IT STATES IN PART THE INCREASE IN DELAY ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS LIMITED TO POINT SIX SECONDS PER VEHICLE DURING THE A.M. PEAK HOUR AND POINT ONE SECONDS PER VEHICLE DURING THE P.M. PEAK HOUR. SO LESS THAN EXTREMELY LESS THAN ONE SECOND. AND AS YOU ALL KNOW IN BROWARD COUNTY WE'LL LOOK AT THE P.M. PEAK HOUR AND THE P.M. PEAK HOURS POINT ONE SECOND DELAY PER VEHICLE. SO IN TRAFFIC TALK THEY SAY THAT'S DE MINIMIS WHICH IS WHICH IS BENIGN OR INSIGNIFICANT. BUT I DON'T WANT YOU TO JUST TAKE OUR TRAFFIC CONSULTANTS WORD FORWARD AS PART OF YOUR REVIEW PROCESS. 
          THE CITY HIRES AN OUTSIDE TRAFFIC CONSULTANT TO REVIEW THE ANALYSIS. DO HIS OWN ANALYSIS AND SEE IF WHAT OUR CONSULTANT IS SAYING IS CONSISTENT WITH WHAT HE BELIEVES THAT ANALYSIS WAS DONE. AND I QUOTE ONCE AGAIN THEY LOOK AT THE SEGMENTS AND THE ROADWAYS SURROUNDING OUR PROPERTY AND WHAT THE IMPACT WILL BE. AND THEY CALL THIS THE LINK ANALYSIS AND I'M READING NOW FROM YOUR TRAFFIC CONSULTANTS REPORT WHICH IS PART OF THE RECORD. THIS IS FROM CARL PETERSON WITH TRAFFIC ENGINEERING AND THIS IS HIS TAMARACK APARTMENTS TRAFFIC STUDY REVIEW DATED 
          [03:45:04]
NOVEMBER 17TH 2018 AND HE STATES IN PART IN ALL CASES THE ROADWAY SEGMENT IMPACTS ARE LESS THAN 1 PERCENT LESS THAN 1 PERCENT. SO ONCE AGAIN THAT DE MINIMIS LANGUAGE SO WE DO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE EXISTING TIMES ON THESE ROADS THAT ROADWAY SEGMENTS THAT CAN BE CHALLENGING BUT I ASSURE YOU THAT THAT PROBLEM IS NOT CAUSED BY OUR DEVELOPMENT AND BASED ON YOUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER'S ANALYSIS ON OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEERS ANALYSIS AND BASED ON WHAT WE CAN DO TODAY BY RIGHT. IF THIS IS APPROVED AT COMMERCIAL I'M SORRY. WELL WE CAN DO BY RIGHT TODAY AT THE EXISTING COMMERCIAL VS. WHAT THE REDUCED TRAFFIC COUNTS WILL BE IF THIS IS APPROVED AT THE RESIDENTIAL THERE'S A SUBSTANTIAL DECREASE IN TRAFFIC OK. YOU'RE ON THE AIR. YOUR CLIENT DEVELOPS NOT JUST RESIDENTIAL BUT COMMERCIAL AND A LOT OF THE RESIDENTS ARE ASKING WHY NOT COMMERCIAL. SO IT'S NOT MY KEY TO NOT DEVELOP COMMERCIAL IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WHY DID YOU CHOOSE ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY RESIDENTIAL UNITS OVER PERHAPS A SMALL PLAZA. WELL AS YOU I'M SURE YOU'RE AWARE THERE ARE MULTIPLE FACTORS THAT GO INTO DEVELOPMENT OF A PROPERTY. AND WHAT MAKES SENSE AND MY CLIENT AS YOU STATED HAS A VERY UNIQUE KNOWLEDGE IN THIS REGARD BECAUSE THEY HAVE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF SQUARE FEET OF COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT UNDER THEIR BELT. 
          SO THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT WORKS AND WHAT DOESN'T WORK. AND LOOKING AT THIS SITE AND DOING AN ANALYSIS OF WHAT TYPES OF TENANTS WOULD WANT TO BE IN THIS AREA AND DOING SOME OF THE THINGS TRAFFIC IS HUGE AND LOOKING AT A USE THAT WOULD BE MORE RESPECTFUL TO THE EXISTING USERS IN THE AREA THE RESIDENTIAL BY FAR IS THE BETTER CHOICE. AND LOOKING AT THE TYPE AND THE SCOPE OF DEVELOPMENT THAT WOULD NEED TO GO ON THIS SITE IF IT WERE COMMERCIAL TO MAKE IT A VIABLE SITE IT WOULD. IT WOULD JUST BE I THINK IT WOULD LOSE THE COMPATIBILITY THAT WE'RE SEEKING IN THIS IN THIS APPLICATION. SO YES THEY DID DO AN ANALYSIS OF WHAT CAN GO THERE WHAT WOULD TAKE PLACE AND AT THE END OF THE DAY THEY DETERMINED THAT THAT WAS NOT WHAT WAS BEST FOR THIS CITY AND FOR THIS NEIGHBORHOOD. WE BELIEVE THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU IS THE MORE COMPATIBLE REQUEST WE THINK IT IS THE MOST BENIGN REQUEST WITH RESPECT TO IMPACTS TO THE NEIGHBORS AND PARTICULARLY WITH RESPECT TO IMPACTS TO EXISTING TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORTATION CONDITIONS. HYPOTHETICALLY IF YOUR CLIENT WERE TO DEVELOP COMMERCIAL. WOULD YOUR CLIENT HAVE THE LEGAL ABILITY TO TELL TENANTS WHAT THEY CAN DO IN THE IN THE COMMERCIAL SPACE THAT HE ONLY ACCEPTS LAW OFFICES OR NAIL SALONS BUT HE DOES NOT ACCEPT LIQUOR STORES OR ADULT STORES OR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE. WELL WHEN YOU'RE DEALING WITH PROPERTY RIGHTS YOU HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL TO NOT TAKE ACTIONS THAT CAN BE SEEN AS DISCRIMINATING AGAINST CERTAIN TYPES OF PEOPLE RACE. THIS IS ONE. AND THERE ARE OTHER PROTECTED CLASSES THAT SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN YOU'RE SETTING REGULATIONS THAT YOU ARE NOT DOING SOMETHING THAT EITHER COVERTLY OR OVERTLY IS VIEWED AS DISCRIMINATING AGAINST CERTAIN TYPES OF PEOPLE CERTAIN PROTECTED CLASSES. SO THAT'S THAT'S A TRICKY QUESTION COMMISSIONER. I MEAN YOU CAN DECIDE WHAT YOU THINK IS BEST FOR A SHOPPING CENTER AND LOOK AT YOU KNOW HOW YOU WOULD PUT TOGETHER A TENANT MIX THAT BEST WORKS FOR ALL THINGS BEING CONSIDERED. BUT I THINK IT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IF YOU GO DOWN A PATH OR IT CAN APPEAR THAT YOU'RE DISCRIMINATING AGAINST OR TREATING ONE SUBSET DIFFERENT THAN OTHERS. SO THAT CAN BE DANGEROUS YOUR DEVELOPMENT BACKS UP TO THE EAST OF A 55 AND OLDER COMMUNITY. WHY DID YOUR CLIENT NOT THINK ABOUT A 55 AND OLDER COMMUNITY AND WHY ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT THE COMMISSION APPROVE ALL AGES SO TO SPEAK. SURE. WANT TO GIVE IT'S A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR ME TO GIVE CREDIT TO YOUR STAFF. WHEN WE FIRST STARTED THIS PROCESS ALMOST TWO YEARS AGO YOUR STAFF WAS VERY DILIGENT IN MAKING SURE THAT THIS WAS THE RIGHT USE FOR THIS PROPERTY AND PART OF THAT. AND ONE OF THE COMPONENTS THAT THEY LOOK AT 
          [03:50:03]
WAS THE MARKET AND THEY ASKED US TO DO A MARKET ANALYSIS WHICH FOR THE RECORD IS WAS SUBMITTED TO CITY STAFF AND IS PART OF THE RECORD. BUT WE LOOKED AT WHAT THE DEMAND WAS AND WHETHER THIS NOT ONLY RESIDENTIAL USE BUT THIS TYPE OF RESIDENTIAL USE WAS NEEDED IN YOUR CITY IN THIS AREA. AND OF COURSE FOR US TO GET THIS FAR NOW A YEAR AND A HALF TWO YEARS LATER IT WAS VERY CLEAR IN THAT MARKET ANALYSIS THAT THIS DEMAND WAS HERE. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE YOUR CITY IS GETTING YOUNGER AND YOUNGER AND YOU ARE ATTRACTING ALL TYPES OF AGE GROUPS TO YOUR CITY TO LIVE WORK AND PLAY. AND SO TO DO THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE HOUSING TYPES THAT MATCH THE NEW DEMAND OF YOUR CITIZENS. AND SO OF COURSE NOT TAKING ANYTHING AWAY FROM THE 55 AND OLDER. BUT THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A NEEDED SEGMENT WITHIN YOUR COMMUNITY BASED ON YOUR NEW DEMOGRAPHICS AND THE FOLKS THAT ARE COMING TO TAMARACK TO LIVE WORK AND PLAY. SO THE MARKET STUDY LOOKED AT ALL OF THAT IT LOOKED AT THE THE MARKET IN TARGET PRICING FOR THE UNITS. IT ALSO LOOKS AT STABILIZATION RATE. SO YOU. THAT'S REALLY ONE OF THE BIGGER THINGS. ONCE YOU BUILD IT HOW QUICKLY CAN YOU FILL IT. AND THAT'S A BIG INDICATION OF WHETHER THE DEMAND IS THERE OR NOT. WE BELIEVE THAT THIS FACILITY WILL BE STABILIZED IN ABOUT EIGHT MONTHS WHICH IS FAST FAST. SO. SO YOU KNOW WE DID THAT RESEARCH WE DID THAT HOMEWORK AT THE REQUEST OF YOUR CITY STAFF FROM THE VERY BEGINNING OF THIS PROJECT. AND THE DEMAND IS HERE FOR THIS TYPE OF RESIDENTIAL USE. AND IT CLEARLY MEETS THE DEMAND THAT YOU'RE YOUR RESIDENTS NOW HAVE. MAYOR GOMEZ AND I VISITED LICKS OF COURAGE HILLS AND YOU ARE PRESENT WITH YOUR DEVELOPER. AND IN THAT ROOM I WOULD SAY OVER 90 PERCENT OF THE RESIDENTS ARE NOT FOR YOUR DEVELOPMENT AND THEY MADE IT ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THAT THEY WANTED THEIR VOICE TO BE HEARD THROUGH MY AND THE MAYOR'S VOICE. HOW DO YOU THINK THAT YOUR LETTER FROM THE LIKES OF KAREN SHILLS ON CONDO ASSOCIATION MITIGATE A SPEAKING OUT AGAINST HER. WELL I'LL SAY A FEW THINGS. FIRST OF ALL I'LL SAY THAT I HAVE A LOT OF RESPECT FOR THE NEIGHBORS AND WE MET WITH THEM AT LEAST FOUR TIMES BOTH EITHER THE GENERAL BODY WHICH WAS EVERYBODY WHICH IS ONE OF THE MEETINGS THAT YOU ATTENDED AS WELL AS THEIR EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP TEAM. I THINK THAT CHANGE CAN BE DIFFICULT. THAT PROPERTY'S BEEN VACANT FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND UNFORTUNATELY I BELIEVE SOME FOLKS THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE VACANT FOREVER. SO I THINK THAT IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR SOME PEOPLE TO GET THEIR MIND AROUND THAT THERE WOULD BE DEVELOPMENT ON THAT PROPERTY. AND AS YOUR CITY ATTORNEY STATED AT THE BEGINNING WHEN HE WAS GOING THROUGH THE QUASI JUDICIAL REQUIREMENTS EVERY PROPERTY OWNER HAS CONSTITUTIONAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND THIS PROPERTY WILL BE DEVELOPED AT SOME POINT. AND SO I THINK THAT THE ANALYSIS IS THAT THAT. OK FIRST OF ALL IS THE PERSON THAT'S HERE IN FRONT OF ME TODAY WILLING TO WORK WITH US SO THAT DEVELOPMENT THAT TAKES PLACE IS COMPATIBLE. IT'S RIGHT SIZED AND THEY'VE LISTENED TO THE CONCERNS OF BOTH THE CITY AND THE COMMUNITY AND I THINK WE'VE DONE THAT. ALSO WHAT OUR STATE WITH ALL DUE RESPECT IS IT'S VERY DIFFICULT WHEN YOU GET THAT MANY PEOPLE IN A ROOM THAT IF YOU HAVE A FEW VOCAL PEOPLE THAT ARE EXPRESSING THEIR OPINION AND YOU HAVE AN OPINION THAT'S DIFFERENT THAN THAT IT TAKES A LOT OF GUMPTION TO GET UP IN FRONT OF ALL THOSE PEOPLE AND STATE THAT OPINION. SO IT'S IT'S FAIRLY DIFFICULT TO REALLY GET A GAUGE OF HOW EVERYBODY FEELS THERE WERE SEVERAL PEOPLE AT THAT MEETING THAT CAME UP TO US AFTERWARDS AND SAID YEAH WE WOULD THINK RESIDENTIAL IS MORE COMPATIBLE BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT JUST DIDN'T SEEM LIKE A CONDUCIVE FORUM FOR THEM TO STAND UP AND SAY THAT IN FRONT OF SOME FOLKS THAT WERE LOUDLY OBJECTING. AND YOU KNOW IF YOU TALK ABOUT TRAFFIC AND SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS IT'S REALLY REALLY CLEAR THAT THIS REQUEST IS A SUBSTANTIAL REDUCTION IN THOSE IMPACTS. SO IT WILL BE DEVELOPED. THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS BUT THEY'RE NOT SHOVING THAT DOWN THE CITY'S THROAT AND IS SURELY HAVEN'T SHOW THAT DOWN THE NEIGHBORS SO THEY'VE THEY'VE WORKED FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS NOW TO FIND THE HAPPY MEDIUM AND BALANCE. AND AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE LETTER TO FINALLY ANSWER YOUR QUESTION I APPRECIATE YOU LET ME SPEAK A FEW MINUTES BUT TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION ABOUT THE LETTER SO YOU HAVE AN EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP TEAM WHICH HAS A FIDUCIARY DUTY TO DO WHAT'S IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THAT ASSOCIATION AND THEY HAVE TO LOOK AT ALL THINGS AND I THINK WHEN YOU GET A SMALLER GROUP THAT REALLY IS LOOKING OUT FOR THE BEST INTERESTS OF EVERYBODY INVOLVED THEY WERE ABLE TO REALLY FOCUS ON THE REAL 
          [03:55:01]
CONCERNS UNDERSTANDING THAT DEVELOPMENT WILL COME THERE. SO HOW DO WE AND WHO DO WE WORK WITH TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S DONE IN THE RIGHT WAY. AND SO THEY CAME WITH THE LIST. YOU SAID DWAYNE THESE ARE SEVEN EIGHT NINE THINGS THAT WE WANT THAT WE THINK NEED TO BE DONE TO MITIGATE IMPACTS. AND I BELIEVE WE ADDRESS 90 95 PERCENT OF THEM WITHIN OUR COMMITMENTS IN THIS LETTER COMPARED TO LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS AND THE HEIGHT OF YOUR BUILDING. HOW MUCH TALLER OR HOW MUCH SHORTER WILL YOUR BUILDING BEEN. SO OUR BUILDING IS THREE STORIES WHICH IS JUST UNDER 40 FEET IN HEIGHT. LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILL I BELIEVE HAS THREE AND FOUR STOREY BUILDING SO THEY HAVE SEVERAL BUILDINGS THAT WILL BE TALLER THAN OURS. AND THEN IF YOU LOOK TO THE WEST WHICH IS THE GATE CONDO I BELIEVE THEY HAVE BUILDINGS UP TO FIVE STORIES. SO WE ARE WELL WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF COMPATIBILITY WITH HEIGHT AND I BELIEVE EVERYBODY AROUND US IS WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITY HAVE BUILDINGS THAT ARE TALLER THAN OURS WILL BE OKAY. I KNOW THAT THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE TO TALK WITH MY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. LET TELL ME ABOUT PARKING. THESE ARE 120 UNITS. IT'S IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE. ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY UNITS ON THE PROPERTY THE FBO LINES AND PARKING HOW WILL YOU INCORPORATE PARKING FOR FOR EVERYONE. I DON'T REMEMBER IF YOU HAVE TWO SPACES PER UNIT OR ONE OR ONE POINT FIVE OR I AM A MINUTE MISS CALLAWAY TO HELP ME ON THIS I BELIEVE THE CODE REQUIRES ONE POINT NINE SPACES IT VARIES ON THE UNIT SIZE SO IF IT'S ONE TWO BEDROOM IS ONE POINT FIVE BY THEN THREE BEDROOM IT'S TWO PARKING BUT FOR MULTIFAMILY YOU ALSO NEED TO PROVIDE GUEST PARKING. THAT'S RIGHT. THERE'S A FORMULA FOR CALCULATION ON THAT. THAT'S CORRECT. 
          AND I WILL TELL YOU THAT WE DO HAVE A SURPLUS OF PARK. WE ARE PROPOSING A ONE AND TWO BEDROOM UNITS AND WE DO HAVE A SURPLUS OF APARTMENTS SO WE WEREN'T CUTTING IT CLOSE. THE GOOD NEWS I GUESS MAYBE ONE THE ONLY GOOD THINGS ABOUT AN FP NOTE IS MINUTES YOU CAN PARK UNDER IT. SO THAT'S WHY WE WERE ABLE TO UTILIZE THAT HUNDRED FOOT EASEMENT AREA FOR PARK. AND SO WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A PARKING REDUCTION OR DEFICIENCY WE EXCEED YOUR CODE REQUIREMENT. WITH RESPECT TO PARK I UNDERSTAND WHAT THE CODE SAYS AND I UNDERSTAND. YOU KNOW WE CAN GET AWAY WITH YOU KNOW ONE POINT FIVE PARK PARKING SPACES AND THAT'S THE STUFF. WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT SOUTH FLORIDA AND PEOPLE HAVING ROOMMATES AND YOU HAVE YOUR DOG AND YOUR CAT AND YOUR MOTHER DOG AND CAT CARS. BUT YOU KNOW THE GRANDMA AND THE BROTHERS AND THE SISTERS AND THE PARTIES THAT ARE THAT ARE HAPPENING. I HAVE A PROBLEM FINDING I HAVE A PROBLEM FIGURING OUT WHERE THE ADDITIONAL CARS ARE GOING TO GO. UNDERSTANDING THAT TO THE NORTH THERE IS BAILEY ROAD AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO PARKING AMERICAS THAT'S NOT IDEAL. AND THEN TO THE SOUTH IS BANK OF AMERICA AND THEY'LL BE TOWED TO THE WEST IS THE GATE CONDOMINIUM AND THEY'LL BE TOWED AND THEN LEAKS OF CARRIAGE HILLS TO THE EAST. THEY'LL BE TOWED. SO I SEE A PARKING DISASTER FOR THE FOUR FOR THE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT. IT IS IT IS NO SECRET THAT I LIKE ELEMENTS OF THE DEVELOPMENT. I HAVE SAID THAT TO TO MY RESIDENTS AND I WOULD STRONGLY ADVOCATE FOR SOMETHING OTHER THAN RESIDENT OTHER THAN COMMERCIAL BEING THERE. BUT BUT MY ISSUE IS WILL THIS IMPACT THE QUALITY OF LIFE. YOU KNOW BIRTHDAYS AND ANNIVERSARY EVENTS AND HOLIDAYS WHEN EVERYBODY COMES OVER AND THEY CONVERGE YOU KNOW WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO PARK. I HAD THE PLEASURE OF LIVING IN SEVERAL COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE CITY OF TAMARACK AND OBVIOUSLY THE PLEASURE OF SERVING AS COMMISSIONER FOR MANY OF US FOR ALL THE DISTRICT 11 COMMUNITIES. WE HAVE A PARKING CRISIS AND PEOPLE ARE PARKING ON THE STREETS AND PLACES THAT THEY SHOULD NOT PARK AND ALL THAT STUFF SO. SO I SEE THIS AS A AS A MAJOR PROBLEM. YOU KNOW FOR NOT JUST LEAKS OF CARRIAGE HILLS AND THE GATE BUT THE FUTURE RESIDENTS OF OF THAT NEIGHBORHOOD. I WANT TO LOOK AT LOOK AT IT JUST A LITTLE 
          [04:00:04]
BIT CLOSER TO FIND OUT YOU KNOW HOW PARKING WILL BE IMPACTED THAT'S RHETORICAL YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER BECAUSE THE CODA REQUIRES AND YOU HAVE COMPLIED WITH THE CODE. I'M JUST SAYING THAT OUTSIDE OF THE CODE I THIS THIS COULD BE A PROBLEM FOR FOUR LEGS OF CARRIAGE HILLS. I READ THEIR LETTER WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO YOU KNOW CONTRIBUTE TO THE COST OF 600 PARKING PERMITS AND THAT'S THE STUFF YOU KNOW THAT WILL MITIGATE SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT THEY HAVE IN THE COMMUNITY. YOU'RE DEFINITELY LOOKING FORWARD. AND NOT JUST BEING YOU KNOW A CRAZY DEVELOPER THAT COMES HERE WITH A CRAZY PROJECT AND NOT YOU KNOW LOOKING FORWARD THE BEST INTEREST OF OF OF THE COMMUNITY. ONE OF THE COMPLIMENTS THAT I HAVE FOR YOU IS THAT YOU JUST NEVER HAD A ONE. CHECK THE BOX MEETING AND LEFT THE RESIDENTS WHERE THEY WHERE THEY ARE IN AND FIGHT YOUR BATTLES HERE. YOU'VE YOU'VE DONE SEVERAL MEETINGS IN THE COMMUNITY. 
          AND I'M THANKFUL FOR THAT. SO I DON'T SEE MY COMMENTS ABOUT THE PARKING AS BEATING YOU DOWN. I MEAN I THINK YOU'VE TRIED YOUR BEST BUT I BUT I FEEL THAT THE RESIDENTS ARE GOING TO HAVE A NIGHTMARE NOT JUST LEAKS OF CARRIAGE HELD IN THE GATE AND COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES TO THE SOUTH BUT YOUR FUTURE RESIDENTS WILL. WELL WE'LL HAVE A NIGHTMARE. WE TALKED ABOUT THE SECURITY GATE AND THAT'S THE STUFF. WHEN WILL YOU HAVE SECURITY CAMERAS. THAT'S THE STUFF. HOW WILL THAT WORK. YES WE WE ANTICIPATE HAVING CAMERAS IN STRATEGIC LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT THE PROPERTY TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE THAT SECURITY FOOTAGE. AND I KNOW I KNOW THIS IS ZONING IN AND LOOP IN FLEX ALLOCATION AND PARKING AND STUFF REALLY GETS IN THE SITE PLAN WHICH SHOULD BE A LATER DATE BUT FROM A BUSINESS PERSPECTIVE EVEN. AND I APPRECIATE YOUR COMPLIMENT WITH THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE THAT'S REALLY THE DIRECTIVE THAT I WAS GIVEN FROM THE MY CLIENT THE DEVELOPER THAT REACH OUT THE COMMUNITY CONTINUE TO REACH OUT TO YOU REACH A RESOLUTION. BUT BUT FROM A BUSINESS PERSPECTIVE IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO HAVE A BUSINESS WHERE PEOPLE CAN'T PARK AND IT'S A NIGHTMARE. SO WE DO HAVE A VERY EXTENSIVE DEKALB PROGRAM WE REGISTER VEHICLES WE HAVE LEASING REQUIREMENTS WITH WHO CAN PARK WHERE AND REGISTERING VEHICLES SO WE DO HAVE MECHANISMS IN PLACE IN ADDITION TO MY CLIENT. THEY HAVE PARTNERS WHO WILL ALSO DEVELOP THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS. SO THEY HAVE THE EXPERTISE TO MANAGE THEIR FACILITIES IN A WAY THAT THEY MINIMIZE OR ELIMINATE ISSUES LIKE PARKING SOME OF THESE OTHER ISSUES SO I UNDERSTAND YOUR POINT WELL TAKEN. BUT I WILL TELL YOU THAT BASED ON THE EXPERTISE OF THIS CLIENT AND DEVELOPER AND SOME OF THE MECHANISMS THAT THEY HAVE IN PLACE IN ADDITION TO SOME OF THE THINGS WE'RE DOING WITH THE SURROUNDING HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATIONS OR CONDO ASSOCIATIONS WE'RE CONFIDENT THAT WE CAN MANAGE PARKING APPROPRIATELY. AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S BEST FOR THE COMMUNITY AND OF COURSE I THINK THAT'S A GOOD BUSINESS DECISION AS WELL. WILL YOU HAVE YOUR OWN SECURITY GUARD OR SECURITY OFFICERS ONSITE THROUGH YOUR MANAGEMENT COMPANY. TYPICALLY THAT'S AN ON DEMAND AS NECESSARY THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY WILL BE THERE AND AS NEEDS ARISE IF NEEDS ARISE WE WILL ENTERTAIN THAT OPTION. BUT IN OUR EXPERIENCE WITH OUR MANAGEMENT COMPANY AND OUR LEASING AND OUR BACKGROUND CHECKS AND YOU KNOW ALL THE THINGS THAT WE DO THAT GO ABOVE AND BEYOND THE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WE FOUND THAT WE HAVEN'T HAD SOME OF THOSE ISSUES THAT MAYBE SOME OTHER FACILITIES HAVE HAD. BUT OF COURSE WE'RE VERY REAL TIME AND VIGILANT. AND IF SOMETHING IS NECESSARY WE'LL RE-EVALUATE AT THAT TIME BUT THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY IS IS THE GOAL NOW AND YOU KNOW ANYTHING ELSE THAT'S DEMANDED WILL TAKE PLACE AS WELL. ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT THE COMMUNITY HAVE IS THAT THIS IS A RENTAL COMMUNITY AND IN THE MINDS OF PEOPLE YOU KNOW RENTALS COULD BE A PROBLEM SOME PROBLEM SOME I SEE SOME OF THOSE PROBLEMS AT ANOTHER RENTAL COMMUNITY DUMB DOWN THE STREET THEY'VE NOT PAINTED THEIR FACILITY YOU YOU WALK IN THERE'S TRASH EVERYWHERE AND THAT'S THE STUFF AND THE THE HOMEOWNERS AT CENTRAL PARK ARE JUST THEY'RE JUST CRYING. HOW WILL YOU GIVE US ASSURANCE THAT YOUR MANAGEMENT COMPANY WILL WILL WILL BE SUPERB IN YOUR BUILDING WILL NOT BE A NUISANCE TO THE NEIGHBORS. 
          [04:05:04]
SURE. WELL I THINK THE FIRST THING IS THIS CLIENT AND THEIR PARTNERS HAVE A TRACK RECORD WITH RESPECT TO HOW THEY MAINTAIN THEIR NEWER DEVELOPMENTS AND THEIR OLDER DEVELOPMENT. SO I THINK THAT'S A GOOD THING WITH HAVING A HISTORY WHERE YOU CAN SEE HOW THEY'VE CONDUCTED THEMSELVES AND HOW THEY MAINTAIN THEIR PROPERTIES IN THE PAST. ALSO WITH IT WITH THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY OBVIOUSLY YOU HAVE CODES. BUT IT REALLY COMES DOWN TO THE QUALITY OF THE OWNERS AND THE DEVELOPERS AND AND HOW THEIR PHILOSOPHY IS WITH MAINTAINING THEIR PROPERTIES. OBVIOUSLY YOU WANT THEM TO BE NICE. YOU WANT TO BE COMPETITIVE. YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU CAN GET THE RENTS THAT YOU WANT TO GET THIS DEVELOPER AND THEIR PARTNERS HAVE JUST PROVEN TO BE VERY DILIGENT ABOUT MAKING SURE THEIR PROPERTIES LOOK NICE AND THAT THEY HAVE GOOD AMENITIES IN THE CITY SO WE HAVE NOT HAD THAT ISSUE I THINK THAT IT REALLY IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHO YOU'RE PARTNERING WITH AS A CITY. AND WE'RE VERY CONFIDENT THAT THIS PARTNER IS A CORPORATE PARTNER THAT YOU'LL BE PROUD OF I'M ALMOST DONE WITH LEGS AGAIN TYPE COMMISSION. LET'S TALK ABOUT PRICE POINTS. I KNOW THAT IT'S BASED ON A MARKET AND THAT'S THE STUFF OF THE TIME. BUT WHAT IS YOUR DESIRE AS IT IS TODAY. SO WE DESIRE TO AVERAGE APPROXIMATELY 15 HUNDRED DOLLARS PER UNIT. NOW THERE ARE PROPOSED FIFTY ONE BEDROOMS AND 72 BEDROOMS SO OBVIOUSLY THAT PRICE IS HEAVILY DRIVEN BY DEMAND AS YOU STATED. BUT IN THE SIZE OF THE UNIT AND SO FORTH. BUT WE WOULD LIKE TO BE IN THE MEDIAN RANGE OF ABOUT FIFTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS PER UNIT. A LITTLE LESS FOR THE SMALLER ONE BEDROOM AND OF COURSE MORE UP TO MAYBE SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN HUNDRED OR SO FOR THE LARGER TWO BEDROOM UNITS. LET'S TALK ABOUT VACATION RENTALS. I SAW THAT ANY ARE ANY A LETTER TO THE ASSOCIATION. 
          WELL I KNOW THAT I KNOW THAT THAT IS A THAT IS A AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND THE ASSOCIATION. BUT WOULD YOU BE OPPOSED TO THAT BEING A CONDITION OF APPROVAL FOR YOUR FOR YOUR DIVINE PLAN THROUGHOUT THE CITY OF TIME. NO WE WOULD NOT BE OPPOSED TO THAT WAS AN ISSUE THAT WAS RAISED AT ONE OF THE ASSOCIATION MEETINGS THAT THEY DID NOT WANT. THE SHORT TERM VACATION. AIR B AND B RENTALS. WE AGREED AND IN THE LETTER THEY ACKNOWLEDGE OUR AGREEMENT THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE SHORT TERM VACATION RENTALS ONCE AGAIN. THAT'S A WIN WIN. IT REALLY MAKES SENSE I THINK FOR THE COMMUNITY TO HAVE SOME PRIDE IN WHERE YOU LIVE FOR TERM AND ALSO IT MAKES GREAT BUSINESS SENSE. WE WANT LONGER TERM LEASES. THIS IS JUST YOU KNOW YOU DON'T WANT THE TURNOVER YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO REDO THE APARTMENT EVERY FEW WEEKS OR DAYS IT JUST IT'S A REALLY GOOD BUSINESS MODEL FOR US AS WELL. SO IT WAS A WIN WIN AND WE DID AGREE TO DO THAT. AND AS YOU'LL SEE STATED IN THE LETTER IT'S CLEAR THAT THESE COMMITMENTS WILL BE CONDITIONS OF SITE PLAN APPROVAL. AND SO THAT THE CITY WILL HAVE SOME SOME TEETH THERE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ABIDE BY THOSE COMMITMENTS AS PART OF THE FINAL EITHER USUALLY CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY FOR FOR THE DEVELOPMENT ALL RIGHT. MY MOTHER'S A LITTLE DRY. I HAVE A LIST OF OTHER QUESTIONS BUT I'LL TAKE A BREAK FOR NOW. ALL RIGHT THANK YOU VERY MUCH MR. BOLTON. 
          WE ARE GOING TO VICE MAYOR BACA. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I JUST HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS FOR YOU. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT YOUR SCREENING PROCESS IS FOR RESIDENTS. SURE. ONE OF THE REPRESENTATIVES HERE I THINK THEY DO FULL BACKGROUND CHECKS CREDIT CHECKS CORRECT AND ANYTHING ELSE ON ANYTHING. OH THAT'S RIGHT. THEY DO INCOME VERIFICATION JOB THAT ALSO CHECKS THE JOBS JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE MINIMIZING. ANYBODY THAT WOULD WOULD BE UNSAVORY IN THE DEVELOPMENT SO BACKGROUND CHECKS JOB CHECKS CRIMINAL CHECKS ON INCOME VERIFICATION THOSE THOSE TYPES OF BACKGROUND CHECKS. AND YOU MENTIONED LONG TERM LEASES. WHAT ARE YOUR LEAST CONSIST OF. YEAR TWO YEARS. YEAH. USUALLY THE YEARS USUALLY TYPICAL BUT I BELIEVE WE HAVE OPTIONS FOR EVEN LONGER IF IF THEY IF THEY MAY WANT LONGER. BUT WHAT A LONG TERM LEASE WOULD BE A YEAR. NO I THINK SIX MONTHS IN RARE OCCASIONS AND I'VE SEE THAT IF YOU GO TO THE SIX MONTH LEASE THAT BECOMES MORE EXPENSIVE YOU DO HAVE A SMALL SEGMENT THAT MAY HAVE BEEN TRANSITION FOR A JOB OR SO WE DO OFFER THAT OPTION BUT 
          [04:10:01]
USUALLY IT'S A YEAR OR MORE. AND I DON'T THINK WE HAVE ANY POLICE THAT WOULD GO LESS THAN SIX MONTHS. I THINK I WOULD HAVE A PROBLEM WITH A SIX MONTH LEASE. I THINK A YEAR'S LEASE IS A LITTLE BIT MORE CONSISTENT THAT SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE LIVING THEY ARE NOT USING IT TO BRING IN GUESTS TO OR WHATEVER. SURE. WELL YOUR POINTS WELL TAKEN. OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE SITE PLAN SO I'LL MAKE SURE I COORDINATE WITH MY TEAM AND I'LL GET BACK TO YOU ON THAT. BUT THE GOAL IS THE LONGER THE LEASE FOR US THE BETTER BECAUSE THE LESS TURNOVER. RIGHT. SO IT'S A GOOD BUSINESS MODEL. 
          EXACTLY. THE OTHER THING I'M WONDERING IS DO YOU HAVE A LIMIT OF HOW MANY TENANTS CAN BE IN EACH PROPERTY FOR A ONE BEDROOM HOW MANY FOR A TWO BEDROOM. HOW MANY. YES THERE IS. I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE BUT I KNOW THAT THERE ARE PROVISIONS IN THE LEASE THAT LIMIT THE NUMBER OF OF TENANTS THAT CAN BE IN ANY ONE APARTMENT. OKAY. SO THAT THAT INFORMATION WHEN YOU HAVE IT. YES. OKAY WE'LL GET THAT FOR YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. SURE. THANK YOU. THROUGH SOME OF THOSE QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. 
          COMMISSIONER JOHN GOOD AFTERNOON. WHEN YOU SAID THERE WERE FOUR MEETINGS DO YOU HAVE THE NUMBER OF ATTENDEES AT EACH OF THOSE MEETINGS. I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE TWO GENERAL MEETINGS WERE STANDING ROOM ONLY SO WHATEVER THE CAPACITY WAS IN THEIR GENERAL MEETING ROOM DREW WE WERE PROBABLY THERE PLUS SOME. SO THE FIRE MARSHALS HERE COVER YOUR EARS IT WAS BOTH OF THE GENERAL MEETINGS WERE VERY WELL ATTENDED I WOULD SAY 100 TO 200 PEOPLE. YEAH. MAYBE FOUR. YEAH A COUPLE OF HUNDRED PEOPLE AT THE GENERAL MEETINGS AND THEN THE BOARD AT THE TWO MEETINGS THAT WE HAD WITH OUR EXECUTIVE TEAM. WAS THERE A SIGN IN SHEET. DID YOU TAKE NAMES NUMBERS EMAIL ADDRESSES. I WOULD HAVE TO DOUBLE CHECK. I'M NOT AWARE OF A THERE WAS A IT WAS A PITY. I'M SORRY. YEAH. IF I MAY. THERE WAS A PETITION FROM THE RESIDENTS PRESENTED TO THE PLANNING BOARD. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE THAT BUT I WOULD ALSO LIKE IT TO BE PUT IN THE RECORD IF I MAY. BEFORE WE DO THAT QUITE HONESTLY THAT PETITION THAT WAS CIRCULATED WAS PRIOR TO THE MEETING THAT WAS FOR DEALING WITH TRAFFIC ISSUES AND WHETHER OR NOT THE COMMUNITY WANTED SPEED BUMPS IN THERE AND THERE WAS PROBABLY ABOUT ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY NAMES MINIMUM ON THE LIST AND THAT WAS AT THAT MEETING WITHOUT VERIFICATION AND COOPERATION FROM THE ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT WHO PUT THAT FORWARD. I WOULD THINK THAT THAT WOULD CAUSE A LITTLE BIT OF ISSUE AS IN EVIDENCE JERRY. ITEM BEING BROUGHT FORTH ON THIS COMMISSION. I ASKED THE CITY ATTORNEY FOR CLARIFICATION PLEASE MAYOR RESPOND THERE PLEASE. IF THERE IS A IF THERE IS A SIGN AND SHE DID IT AND THE DEVELOPER OFFERS IT UP AS A MATTER OF HIS EXHIBIT IT'S PUBLIC INFORMATION. IF HE SO CHOOSES. THIS IS TWO DIFFERENT ITEMS ONE IS A SIGN UP SHEET THAT HAPPENED AT THE FIRST PUBLIC HERE PUBLIC MEETING THAT WAS HAD BEFORE. THINGS WERE MOVING FORWARD THE NEXT. I BELIEVE IT FOR CORRESPONDING TIME THIS IS BY THE THIRD MEETING OR FOURTH ME IN THE FOURTH AND FINAL MEETING THAT WE HAD BECAUSE I WAS AT A MEETING PRIOR TO COMMISSIONER VAULTS AND BEING THERE OVER THE COURSE OF A WEEK IN APRIL AND THAT THAT LAST MEETING IS THE ITEM THAT IS IN QUESTION REGARDING A PETITION THAT WAS ORIGINALLY PUT OUT BY THE HLA BOARD REGARDING TRAFFIC ISSUES TRAFFIC CALMING ITEMS AND REQUESTING FOR THE COMMUNITY TO SIGN UP. SO IF IT'S BEING PUT IN FOR THE LIGHT OF THAT AGAIN WE ALSO STILL HAVE THE MATTER WHERE THE ASSOCIATION HAS MADE A CHANGE OF PREFERENCE OR WHAT THEY WANT TO DO SO WITHOUT IF WE WANT TO JUST USE IT FOR THE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE WHO ATTENDED. I THINK THAT MAKES SENSE. BUT I THINK IF IT'S BEING USED FOR THE WEIGHT OF THE EVIDENCE OF PRO AND CON TO SOMETHING THAT MAY HAVE CHANGED IN THE PROCESS I WORRY ABOUT THAT AND WE DON'T HAVE THE ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT HERE FOR THAT PART. SO DO WE HAVE AN ISSUE OF HAVING THAT SUBMITTED IN EVIDENCE. LET ME READ LET ME RESPOND. 
          COMMUNITY MEETINGS WHICH ARE CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CITY CODE. IF THERE IS A SIGN IN SHEET IT'S A PUBLIC MEETING BECAUSE IT'S REQUIRED BY OUR CODE. IF THERE ARE MEETINGS THAT ARE CONDUCTED BY THE DEVELOPER AT THEIR OWN DISCRETION THEY'RE NOT PUBLIC RECORDS WHERE THEY'RE NOT PART OF ANY PUBLIC RECORD OF THE CITY IF THEY'RE MAKING A PRESENTATION TO A LOCAL KINDA GROUP. THAT'S THAT'S BETWEEN THE DEVELOPER AND THE THE GROUP THEY'RE DEALING WITH AND THE PARTICULAR ITEM IN QUESTION WAS ALSO ACTUALLY AN ASSOCIATION SIGN IN SHEET AND IT WOULD HAVE BUT SO IT'S STILL IN THE SAME MAN CORRECT AND THE GENUINE EXTENT THE WEIGHT OF THE EVIDENCE IS WHAT IS CREATED BY YOU AS THE PUBLIC OFFICIAL AND REVIEWING THAT MATTER TODAY OR IN FUTURE WHATEVER WEIGHT THAT MAY HAVE. OK. SO AT THIS POINT DO WE HAVE THIS 
          [04:15:01]
ITEM IN QUESTION. DO YOU HAVE A COMMISSION BULLETIN. WHAT'S THE SIGN IN SHEET THAT YOU'RE REQUESTING TO BE. NO I JUST KNOW THAT SIGNATURES WERE PROVIDED TO THE PLANNING BOARD. SCHOLAR AS THEY WERE. BUT I JUST WANTED TO RESPOND TO COMMISSIONER GLENN'S QUESTION. THE ONLY MEETING THAT'S REQUIRED BY COURT IS THE FIRST PRE APPLICATION NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING WHERE A SIGN IN SHEET MUST BE DONE AND SUBMITTED TO OUR OFFICE SO THAT WE DO HAVE AND WE CAN MAKE AVAILABLE AND THAT'S A PUBLIC RECORD. WHAT'S THE WHAT'S THE DETAIL COLLECTED IN THE SIGN IN SHEET PERSEPHONE. YES. AND A SUMMARY OF THE MEAT IN COMMENTS THAT WERE MADE AT THE MEETING WHO IS OPPOSED WHO IS FOR IT BUT WHATEVER COMMENTS THEY HAVE TO TAKE A FULL RECORDING OF THE MEETING AND SUBMIT THAT AS WELL. AND SO FOR THE SUBSEQUENT MEETINGS THAT WERE NOT REQUIRE. CAN YOU CONFIRM WHETHER OR NOT YOU TOOK HAD A SIGN IN SHEET COLLECTING INFORMATION. I WILL CONFIRM THAT AND I'LL GET BACK TO YOU. 
          COMMISSIONER WHO IS THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER THAT AUTHORED THE STUDY OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER. SUZANNE DANIELSON AND SHE'S WITH D.C. ENGINEERS INC. HAS YOUR FIRM WORK WITH THEM BEFORE YES. AND DID THE RESULT OF THAT STUDY COINCIDE WITH THE RESULT THE CITY STUDY IN TERMS OF. WELL SO THE STUDIES PRESENTED TO THE CITY AND THEN THE CITY REVIEWED THE STUDY AND ISSUES COMMENT AND THE CITIES ENGINEER WHO'S CARL PETERSON HAD THE SAME CONCLUSION ABOUT SUZANNE HAND REGARDING THE DE MINIMIS IMPACTS OF TRAFFIC BASED ON OUR DEVELOPMENT REGARDING THE LETTER THAT YOU PROVIDED. DO YOU KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THERE WAS A VOTE OF SUPPORT FROM THE OWNERS PRIOR TO THE LETTER BEING RELEASED TO YOU GUYS. I I HAVE NOT DISCUSSED THAT WITH THE PRESIDENT. SO SHE YOU KNOW OBVIOUSLY THEY INTERNALLY REVIEWED AND ISSUED THE LETTER. HOW MANY MEMBERS ARE ON THAT BOARD DO YOU KNOW DURING OUR MEETINGS. I WOULD. 
          I DON'T KNOW THE TOTAL NUMBER OF THE BOARD BUT USUALLY IT'S FIVE TO SIX MEMBERS THAT ATTENDED OUR MEETINGS BASED ON THE PROPOSAL YOU'RE DEVELOPING YOUR CLIENTS DEVELOPING 120 UNITS. IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOUR DEVELOPER TO DEVELOP 20 UNITS OF FIVE RANGE UNITS OR HOW DID YOU GUYS DETERMINE THAT 120 WAS THE OPTIMAL NUMBER. I THINK IT WAS A FUNCTION OF HOW MUCH PROPERTY WE HAD. THAT WAS DEVELOPABLE BASED ON THE THE HARDSHIPS WITH THE EASEMENTS. ALSO MINIMIZING HEIGHT. WE DIDN'T WANT TO GO OVER THE THREE STORIES. THE ABILITY TO HAVE THE AMENITIES WITH THE POOL AND THE CLUBHOUSE AND SOME OF THOSE THINGS. SO ALL OF THOSE FACTORS TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION REALLY GOT US TO THE SWEET SPOT OF ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY UNITS AT ONE POINT IT WAS INTENDED TO BE MORE UNITS BUT AS WE WENT TO THE DESIGN PHASE WE REALIZED ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY WAS THE RIGHT RIGHT NUMBER. AND WHAT WAS THE INITIAL UNIT NUMBER OF UNITS. YOU GUYS WERE LOOKING AT YOU KNOW THAT IT WAS WE'D GONE THROUGH SO MANY ITERATIONS AT THIS POINT I BELIEVE IT STARTED AT LEAST THAT ONE CLOSE TO ONE. I THINK WE TALKED ABOUT ONE FIFTY ONE SIXTY AND MAYBE EVEN MORE. AND THEN WE WHITTLED DOWN TO I THINK A HUNDRED AND THIRTY THEN IT WAS 126 IT GOT TO 120. ALL RIGHT. FINAL QUESTION. SO THIS PROPOSAL IS DESIGNED FOR MARKET RATE RENT AND YOU DEFINE THAT NUMBER WHAT IS THE EXPECTED INCOME LEVEL BASED ON STUDIES THAT WERE DONE FOR RESIDENTS TO AFFORD THAT LEVEL OF RENT. THE MARKET RATE IF I HAVE AN I DON'T I DON'T HAVE THAT NUMBER OF WHAT THE THE MEDIUM INCOME IS BUT I'LL MAKE A NOTE OF THAT I'LL MAKE SURE I GET THAT ANSWER FOR YOU PRIOR TO SECOND READING. OKAY. AND SO WHEN STATING A MARKET RATE RENTS DOES THAT INDICATE THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR HIGH INCOME PEOPLE TO LIVE THERE. I THINK THE RENT NUMBER IS AT A PLACE WHERE IT'S IT'S IT ALLOWS FOR A MIXTURE OF OF INCOMES TO BE A LITTLE AFFORD IT MARKET RATE. THERE 
          [04:20:02]
ARE SOME TECHNICAL DEFINITIONS FROM THE COUNTY WITH RESPECT TO INCOME AMOUNTS AND WHAT UNITS GO FOR. BUT WITH RESPECT TO TO OUR DEVELOPMENT WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO ATTRACT A AN ARRAY OF INCOME TYPES BUT NOT MEET THE DEFINITION OF AFFORDABLE OR PURSUANT TO THE COUNTY DEFINITIONS THAT THAT'S THE INTENT TO HAVE MARKET RATE UNITS. SO IT'S CONSIDERED ABOVE AFFORDABLE THAT IS THAT IT DEPENDS. THERE'S MULTIPLE DEFINITIONS OF AFFORDABLE NOW THERE'S THERE'S THERE'S A WORK FORCE AND THERE'S THERE'S DIFFERENT PERCENTAGES BASED ON THE MEDIAN INCOME. SO BUT WE DON'T USUALLY WHEN YOU SAY AFFORDABLE THERE'S SEVERAL WAYS YOU CAN GET TAX CREDITS AND OTHER OTHER FEDERAL OR STATE PROGRAMS. WE DON'T INTEND TO SEEK ANY OF THOSE FIT FOR THIS UNIT. OK. AND THEN SO IN ZONE RIGHT NOW FOR COMMERCIAL IS THE REASON WHY THE DEVELOPERS IS NOT GOING COMMERCIAL IS BECAUSE THE MARKET IS NOT THERE THAT DEMAND AND AS THE INCOME LEVEL NOT THERE CURRENTLY FOR COMMERCIAL USE I THINK THAT'S DEFINITE THAT YOU JUST NAMED ABOUT TWO OR THREE FACTORS. I THINK THOSE ARE DEFINITELY FACTORS THAT WE LOOKED AT BUT THERE WERE MULTIPLE FACTORS I THINK YOU LOOK AT THE MOST COMPATIBLE USE FOR THE PROPERTY AND THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS HEAVILY DISCUSSED. YOU LOOK AT THE TYPE OF TENANTS THAT YOU CAN GET. YOU LOOK AT THOSE TENANTS THAT THAT THERE'S A DEMAND FOR ONE OF THOSE TENANTS THAT ARE DESIRABLE TOO. SO REALLY THERE ARE PROBABLY 10 OR MORE FACTORS THAT WERE LOOKED AT TO TO MAKE A DETERMINATION. AND THE ONES YOU LISTED WERE DEFINITELY SOME OF THE FACTORS. ALL RIGHT. FINAL QUESTION NOW AND I HEARD YOU MENTIONED WANTED ONE AND TWO BEDROOM APARTMENTS ON ANY THREE BEDROOM APARTMENTS. NO NO. THREE BEDROOMS. AND WHAT WAS THE REASON FOR THAT. DOES THE DEVELOPER WANT TO LIMIT THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES OR CHILDREN. I THINK IT'S REALLY DEMAND DRIVEN. YOU LOOK AT THE THE TYPES OF FAMILIES THAT ARE MOVING TO TAMARACK AND WHAT THE DEMAND IS AND WE BELIEVE THE ONE IN THE TWO BEDROOMS WOULD SUFFICIENTLY MEET THAT DEMAND. YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE THE LARGER FAMILIES AND YOU SEE IN OUR STUDY LIKE WE LOOKED AT THE STABILIZATION RATE IN THE EIGHT MONTHS THAT WE TALKED ABOUT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT WHAT UNITS ARE MOVING AND THEN HOW FAST THEY'RE MOVING IN AND JUST IN OUR ANALYSIS THAT THE THREE BEDROOMS AREN'T AS IN HIGH AS HIGH DEMAND AS THE ONE IN TWO BEDROOMS AT THIS AT THIS TIME. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH MR. FISHMAN CAN YOU TELL ME IF THERE IS GOING TO BE SUB LEASING ALLOWED AND NO NO SO LEASING POINT. MY MY COLLEAGUES HAVE BEEN VERY THOROUGH IN THEIR QUESTIONS SO I AM ONLY I ONLY HAVE A FEW LEFT SPEAK TO THE RENTAL UNITS THAT ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE IN THE AREA AND HOW THESE RENTAL UNITS WILL BE COMPARABLE AND ALSO WHAT TYPE OF VACANCY RATE TO THE OTHER RENTAL AREAS OR OTHER RENTAL UNITS HAVE IN THE AREA. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT OUR ANALYSIS OF THE AREA AS YOU AS YOU ALL WILL KNOW THAT THERE ARE OLDER HOUSING THERE'S OLDER HOUSING STOCK IN THE AREA AND ALSO AS STATED ON THE RECORD THERE IS RESTRICTED HOUSING STOCK IN THE AREA WHETHER IT BE AGE OR SOME SOME OTHER RESTRICTIONS ON THE PROPERTY SO WE FOUND THAT THIS RESIDENTIAL TYPE WAS A NEEDED DEMAND BASED ON SAY THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THE CITY AND THAT THEY ARE GETTING YOUNGER AND THE NUMBER OF UNITS WE LOOKED AT THE ABSORPTION RATE STABILIZATION RATE WE LOOKED AT. THAT'S BASED ON ON THE PRICES AND SO FORTH. SO JUST WANT TO SO IN THE REPORT SAYS IN ASSESSING THE MARKET AN AUDIT OF THE MOST COMPARABLE RENTAL COMMUNITIES WAS CONDUCTED. WE CONCENTRATE ON THE NO RENTALS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AS THESE WILL BE THE PRIME PET. COMPETITION TO THE SUBJECT SITE. THEY GENERALLY LOOKED IN THE CENTRAL BROWARD COUNTY AREA LOCATED FROM ABOUT COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD NORTHWARD TO THE SAWGRASS EXPRESSWAY. SO THAT WAS THAT WAS THE BASIC TARGET AREA AND TRYING TO FIND IS COMPARABLE OF UNITS AS POSSIBLE TO 
          [04:25:05]
DO THEIR STUDY AND DETERMINE WHAT THEIR ABSORPTION RATES WERE AND WHAT CARS WERE. 
          IF YOU WANT THESE SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENTS THAT THEY LOOKED AT I CAN ABSOLUTELY GET THAT FOR YOU SUPPLEMENT THAT PRIOR TO SECONDARY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 
          COMMISSIONER BOLTON. THANKFULLY ALL OF MY OTHER QUESTIONS WERE ADDRESSED. BUT JUST A FOLLOW UP TO ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT COMMISSIONER GUILLEN ASKED. THE INCOME REQUIREMENTS TYPICALLY RENTAL APARTMENTS ASK THAT THE RESIDENTS MAKE THREE TIMES THE AMOUNT OF THE RENT. GIVEN THAT YOU HAVE SAID THAT YOU NEED. YOU'RE LOOKING AT AROUND FIFTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS PER UNIT. WOULD IT BE SAFE TO SAY THAT THAT PERSON WOULD HAVE TO MAKE FIFTY FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS PER YEAR. I'VE HEARD THAT ANALYSIS BEFORE I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH THE CONSULTANT TEAM AND MAKE SURE THAT I'M GIVEN ACCURATE INFORMATION. BUT I'VE HEARD THAT ANALYSIS BEFORE BECAUSE I ONLY MAKE THIRTY TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR SO I'M NOT I'M I'M JUST SAYING YOU KNOW YOU HAVE VERY DECENT PEOPLE LIKE MYSELF THAT JUST CANNOT AFFORD TO LIVE THERE. SO I MEAN. OH I UNDERSTAND YOUR POSITION. LIKE I SAY WE'RE VERY COGNIZANT OF THE MARKET AND IN THE DEMAND SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE FIND THE RIGHT PRICE POINT THAT'S WHY IT'S ALWAYS HAS TO BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU ESTIMATE WHAT WHAT THE COSTS WILL BE FOR THE RENTALS BECAUSE IT REALLY IS DRIVEN BY THE MARKET AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE FIND THE RIGHT PRICE POINT THAT THAT WE CAN GET THE QUALITY RESIDENTS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE THERE. SO. SO YOU'RE I GUESS I'M SAYING YOUR POINT IS WELL TAKEN AND YOURS AS WELL COMMISSIONER GUILLEN AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO EVALUATE THAT AND CROSS-REFERENCE WITH THE MARKET WHAT THE MARKET WILL BEAR OKAY. I FORGOT TO ASK IF WE CAN TALK ABOUT ITEM B AND C AT THE SAME TIME. WOULD THAT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE. OR CAN WE CAN WE TAKE THE CONVERSATION THAT WE'VE HAD IN B AS THE CONVERSATION AND SEE LOOKING AT THE TIME RESPOND THAT AMIR. YES. YEAH. THE ANSWER IS YES BECAUSE WE READ THE TITLES TO BOTH. OKAY. BEING CONSIDERED PUBLICLY IN ONE PUBLIC FORUM BUT COULD BE CONSIDERED BY SEPARATE MOTION IN SEPARATE ACTIONS SO THE INTEREST IS FAIR GAME. YES. OKAY. AND WILL WE OPEN UP THE FLOOR FOR DISCUSSION SEEING THAT THERE'S TWO ITEMS AS ONE SPEAKER HAS DONE. THAT'S CORRECT. YEAH. 
          OKAY PERFECT. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED BY THE QUESTION. PLEASE SAY THAT AGAIN BECAUSE MY UNDERSTANDING IS WE'VE ALREADY HAD OUR PUBLIC SPEAKING FOR BOTH ITEMS WE HAVE BEEN COMBINING BOTH ITEMS TOGETHER AND I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING WHAT YOU'RE ASKING SINCE WE HAD TWO ITEMS TO BEGIN WITH. I KNOW THAT WE COMBINED IT AND ONE I WAS ASKING THE CITY ATTORNEY IF BECAUSE WE HAD TWO ITEMS TO BEGIN WITH IF IT WOULD BE OKAY IF IT PLEASES THE COMMISSION TO OPEN THE FLOOR FOR LIMITED COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC SO THAT IF THE PUBLIC HAS ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS THAT THEY WANT TO ASK THAT THEY CAN ASK OF THE DEVELOPER BEFORE WE VOTE ON THESE TWO ITEMS. SO WHAT YOU'RE ASKING IS JUST TO REOPEN PUBLIC COMMENTS. AGAIN PUBLIC HEARINGS NOT COMMENTS AT THIS POINT PUBLIC HEARING IF THAT IS GONNA BE THE WILL OF THE COMMISSION I WILL NOT HAVE A PROBLEM BUT THE REST THE COMMISSION STILL NEEDS TO FINISH SPEAKING WITH YOU. YES. THANK YOU. SEEING THAT MY COLLEAGUES IT IS MY TURN. 
          SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH. BASICALLY I WILL THINK THE APPLICANT AND I WILL ALSO THANK THE COMMUNITY. I HAD THE PLEASURE OF ATTENDING A MEETING WITH COMMUNITY LOAN COMMISSIONER BOLTON WAS NOT ABLE TO BE THERE. I'M NOT FOR LACK OF WANTING TO I'M SURE AND AT THAT MEETING THERE WERE MEMBERS WHO WERE NOT INTERESTED IN HAVING IT BE COMMERCIAL THEY WANTED IT TO BE RESIDENTIAL IN THE SAME COMMENTS WERE ALSO MADE AT THE SECOND MEETING WHERE COMMISSIONER BOLTON AND I ATTENDED. SO IT IS VERY HARD TO GET A PULSE ON A COMMUNITY AND YES IT IS VERY HARD SOMETIMES BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE SPEAK LOUDER THAN OTHERS. THERE WAS ALSO REQUESTS FOR OTHER ITEMS THAT THE CITY SHOULD DO THAT THE CITY IS NOT IN A POSITION TO DO. THIS IS A PROPERTY THAT IS OWNED BY THE MINISTRIES AND THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO SELL THEIR PROPERTY AS TO WHAT A DEVELOPER CAN AND CANNOT DO. WE ARE NOT IN THE BUSINESS FOR 
          [04:30:07]
WHAT CONVERSATION WAS HAD BETWEEN THE PROPERTY OWNER AND THE POTENTIAL PURCHASER ON CERTAIN MATTERS AND WE IF THE PURCHASER SHOULD DECIDE TO BUY THE PROPERTY I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE THE RIGHT. IF WE LEFT IT AS COMMERCIAL AND THIS CAN BE CONFIRMED BY THE ATTORNEY FOR THE APPLICANT OR MS GALLOWAY IF THIS ONE IS COMMERCIAL THEY BOUGHT THE PROPERTY WHERE THEY DON'T HAVE TO ASK US FOR ANYTHING. THE CITY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SAY YOU CAN ONLY PUT IN CPA DENTAL DOCTORS IS THAT CORRECT. YES THAT'S ALL RIGHT. SO IT WAS ON THE WAY IT IS CORRECT. THAT'S CORRECT. IF IT'S OWN THE WAY IT IS WE WOULD BE BY LAW AND BY RIGHT ALLOWED TO UTILIZE ANY OF THE USES WITHIN THE PERMITTED ZONE. SO IF THIS DEVELOPERS DECIDE TO PURCHASE IT AND HAS KEPT US COMMERCIAL AND THEY SHOULD EVEN SAY TO THE COMMUNITY WE'RE GOING TO PUT A CPA DOCTORS OR LAWYERS BUT THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO FIND PEOPLE TO GO IN. AT THAT THERE IS NOTHING BINDING THEM TO DO THAT NAKED SO GO IN AND PUT ANY OF THE COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES THAT THEY HAVE RIGHT IN THERE AGAIN WITHOUT A CONVERSATION WITH US TO BE HAD THAT THAT IS CORRECT. I BELIEVE THERE WOULD BE VERY LITTLE DISCRETION IF ANY AND IT BE WHAT WE CALL THE MINISTERIAL APPROVAL MEANING THAT AS LONG AS WE MET THE CODE REQUIREMENTS THE CITY WOULD BE REQUIRED TO APPROVE IT. THANK YOU. THERE HAS BEEN. WILL YOU PLEASE PUT THE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY ACTUALLY. I'M NOT SURE WHICH ONE OF YOU HAD BETTER VIEWS OF THE PROPERTY. I WANT TO SEE THE ONE THAT HAS A LITTLE BIT OF THE NORTH. I'D LOVE IT TO AT THE GATE AND A LITTLE BIT TO THE SOUTH PLEASE. IF YOU HAVE ONE AND I ASSURE YOU LIVE AND WE DEFINITELY DO NOT NEED TO HAVE THAT CAMERA FACING ON ME THIS DOES NOT LOOK GOOD. SO DWAYNE LOOKS EXCELLENT. MAXINE IS ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL. PLEASE PUT IT ON THEN PUT IT ON OUR AUDIENCE THAT'S PERFECTLY FINE. NO I DON'T THINK SO. WE CAN ASK THIS WILL WORK. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WE ARE WELL AWARE THAT THE LAKES OF CAROUSELS COMMUNITY IS A 55 AND OLDER COMMUNITY. THE COMMENT HAS BEEN MADE THAT ALL THE COMMUNITIES AROUND THIS PROPERTY ARE 55 AND OLDER SO OUT OF EDUCATION I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF SPRING LAKE SPRING BREAK. PARK WHICH IS THE NORTH OF BAILEY ON THE EAST SIDE OF ROCK ISLAND. DO WE KNOW IF THAT IS A 55 AND OLDER OR COMMUNITY EITHER DWAYNE OR MAXINE THAT'S IN NORTH LAUDERDALE I'M NOT SURE BUT I KNOW THE GATE CONDOMINIUM IS NOT THE GAY CONDOMINIUM WHICH IS IN THE SOUTH WEST CORNER OF ROCK ISLAND AND BAILEY WHICH IS IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK. 
          THAT IS NOT A 55 AND OLDER MAN COMMUNITY. NO IT IS NOT. YEAH WE JUST CHECKED ON LAST YEAR DEED RESTRICTION AND THAT'S WHAT WE USED TO CHECK. SO THERE'S NO RESTRICTIVE SORT OF REASON IT IS NOT A 55 AND OLDER. OKAY FAIR ENOUGH. AND THEN THE NORTH SIDE OF ROCK ISLAND AND BARELY ON THE SOUTH THE WEST SIDE THAT IS PLAYERS PLACE IN NORTH LAUDERDALE. ARE WE AWARE OF THEIR DESIGNATION THERE. THEY ARE 55 AND OLDER OR NOT TOWNHOME CONDOMINIUM. I'M NOT AWARE OF PLAYERS PLACES. 50 IS RESTRICTED TO 55 AND OVER THOSE. IT IS IT IS NOT. I BELIEVE IT IS NOT AS WELL I'M JUST THINKING. I THINK THAT'S CORRECT THAT IT IS NOT. AND THEN ON SOUTH OF LAKES THE CHARACTER GOES ON SOUTH OF SEVERAL POND BOULEVARD THE COMMUNITIES TO THE SOUTH THERE ARE THOSE 55 AND OLDER. YES THERE THAT'S I BELIEVE THAT'S PART OF LAKE SECURITIES HILLS CORRECT. NO THEY'RE NOT. THAT'S OUTSIDE. EVERYTHING OK MA'AM. MADAM MADAM MAYOR IF SOMEONE WERE TO SPEAK TO THE AUDIENCE AND NEED TO BE ON THE RECORD AND ANSWERING QUESTIONS IS VERY KIND. BUT THERE NEEDS TO BE RECORD EVIDENCE OF THAT CONVERSATION EVEN IF IT'S A SIMPLE ANSWER. I APPRECIATE GIVE ME ONE SECOND SO YOU HEAR FROM OUR APPLICANT AND OUR MAX. I'M SORRY WHAT COMMUNITY DID YOU SEE. S SABLE PALM A 
          [04:35:06]
STABLE PALM BOULEVARD. SO IT'S SOUTH OF THE I'M STILL WAITING ON CONFIRMATION ON THAT. I'M NOT CERTAIN. YEAH I'M I'M NOT AWARE THAT'S THE SOUTH THE SOUTH EAST PROPERTIES 55 AND OLDER SOUTHEAST BUT BELOW FROM THEM. OK THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I THINK I JUST WANTED TO GET A BETTER FEEL FOR MOMENT HERE IN THE WHOLE COMMUNITY THE WHOLE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY 55 AND OLDER WHETHER IT IS OR IS NOT AT THIS POINT. 
          SURE. ON THERE ARE SEVERAL COMMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE THAT I BELIEVE ARE ALL PART OF SITE PLAN NOT PART OF THIS HERE. SO I WILL MAKE MY COMMENTS BASED ON THAT FOR A TAKE AWAY FROM WHEN YOU'RE DEALING IF THIS SHOULD GO FORWARD ON DEALING WITH SITE PLAN. SURE. PLEASE RETHINK THE ITEM ABOUT WHETHER THERE WOULD BE SECURITY ON WEEKENDS. WEEKENDS ARE VERY BUSY AND WHEN YOU HAVE THE POOL AND THE KIDS AND THE FAMILIES THAT IS PROBABLY NOT THE BEST TIME TO HAVE IT BE WHENEVER YOU WANT TO FEEL LIKE IT VERSUS A SET RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR THAT PARKING IS AN ITEM THAT NEEDS TO BE SERIOUSLY LOOKED AT. I BELIEVE AT SITE PLANNED AS WELL WE BELIEVE CONVERSATIONS THAT WE HAVE HAD THERE WAS TOLLING ON THE PROPERTY THAT WAS ONE OF THE REASONS FOR YOUR DEKALB PROGRAM THAT AGAIN IS A SITE PLAN ITEM SIDE PLAN ITEM I KNOW IS ALSO THE VACATION RENTALS AND THEY ARE BEING BE SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE DISCUSSED VERY STRONGLY LAST YEAR WHICH I THINK EVERYBODY KNOWS IS. JOHN POINT FOR MYSELF AND I WAS AWARE THAT THERE WAS NO SUBLETTING. AS FOR THE COMMENTARY REGARDING SIX MONTHS BEING TOO SHORT DEALING WITH THE FACT THAT FLORIDA IS A SNOWBIRD COMMUNITY THAT IS A DISCUSSION I GUESS TO BE HAD. AGAIN IF THIS SHOULD GO FORWARD FOR SITE PLAN. BUT THE BIGGEST AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WOULD BE THAT LEASE THAT WILL BE PRESENTED FOR DISCUSSION AT SITE PLAN TO PROVE UP FOR THE RECORD THE STRENGTH OF WHAT WE ARE BEING TOLD FOR SOME OF THE ITEMS HERE FOR PROTECTION OF THE COMMUNITY ITSELF AND FOR THE LIKES OF CAROUSELS AND ALL COMMUNITIES AROUND IT AT THIS POINT IF THERE ARE NO OTHER QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS FROM THE COMMISSION. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THROUGH COMMISSIONER BOLTON THAT HE WISHES TO HAVE PUBLIC COMMENTS OR PUBLIC HEARING REOPENED. SO THEREFORE I WILL GRANT THAT. 
          IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE FROM THE PUBLIC OR ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC WHO WISHES TO MAKE A COMMENT FOR ANYTHING NEW THAT'S BEEN HEARD OR HAVE ANY OTHER ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS THAT HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN SAID YES PLEASE JUST REFRESH IF YOU WOULD. 
          DWAYNE I'M SORRY AND MA'AM YOU STATE YOUR NAME IS WARREN CORRECT. CORRECT. YES. YEAH IT'S JUST FOR THE RECORD THANK YOU. COULD YOU SPELL YOUR LAST NAME FOR THE CLOSURE. 
          IT'S REVIVED R I V A R D. EASY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YOU'RE WELCOME. SO WHEN I MADE THE COMMENT OF THE ALL OF THE UNITS BEING 55 PLUS THOSE ARE ALL OF THE UNITS ON BAILEY ROAD GOING WEST TO NORTH LAUDERDALE BOULEVARD AND EVEN SOME ON NORTH LAUDERDALE BOULEVARD. OUR 55 PLUS SO IT FIRST STARTS WITH THE GULF VILLAS WHICH IS A RENTAL COMMUNITY. THEN AFTER THAT IS LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS ACROSS THE STREET IS THE GATE AND ALL OF THE UNITS GOING WEST ON BAILEY ROAD ARE FIFTY 55 PLUS. SO THAT'S WHAT I MEANT WHEN I SAID SURROUNDING WHAT I'M SORRY WEST. SO FROM LAKES OF CARRIAGE HILLS. THEN THERE'S THE GATE ACROSS THE STREET AND THEN ALL OF THE COMMUNITIES ON BAILEY ROAD GOING ALL THE WAY TO NORTH LAUDERDALE BOULEVARD ARE ALL 55 PLUS COMMUNITIES. THAT'S ALL WHERE THAT STREET TURNS INTO DIRECT NAME ALL ON RIGHT. YES IT'S SOUTHWEST DAVIE FIRST AVENUE OR OR NORTH LAUDERDALE BOULEVARD. 
          BUT ALL OF THE ALL OF THE APARTMENT COMPLEXES IN THERE ARE ALL 55 PLUS. SO YOU'RE GOING A GOOD MILE DOWN THE ROAD IS WHAT I'M SAYING IN TO THE SS THERE IS ANOTHER RENTAL COMMUNITY ALREADY THERE BUT THAT'S ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE BANK OF AMERICA AND CLOSER TO COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD. THERE'S ANOTHER RENTAL SEPARATE MOM COMMUNION SO TREES TREES SOMETHING SOME HISTORIC VISTA. YEAH. COULDN'T REMEMBER IT. SO THE OTHER THING THAT I WANT TO MAKE MENTION OF IS THIS MORNING I SAW MANY OF MY NEIGHBORS HERE AND UNFORTUNATELY MOST OF THEM THOUGHT THAT THIS WOULD GO ONE HOUR HOUR AND A HALF AT THE MOST. AND MANY OF THEM HAD TO LEAVE. 
          SO I SAW MANY NEIGHBORS OVER HERE WANTING TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION WHICH WERE AT TWO 
          [04:40:01]
THIRTY. I UNDERSTAND THAT UCLA WANTED TO SPEAK SHE WAS SIGNED IN AND SHE HAD TO GO. YEAH BUT THERE WERE MANY OTHERS I SAW HERE THIS MORNING. SAID THAT I CAN ONLY GO BY WHAT SIGN AT NIGHT I'M IRATE. NO I GET IT BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT MENTION AND I FIND THAT IT'S VERY UNFAIR THAT YOU KNOW PEOPLE AT LEAVE HAD TO GO TO WORK HAVE OTHER ISSUES THAT THEY COULDN'T HANG OUT ALL DAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH IF THERE'S NO BODY ELSE FROM THE PUBLIC THAT WISHES TO SPEAK ON THIS MATTER THAN WE WILL. WE CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING AND AT THIS POINT FROM MY COMMISSION IF THERE'S NO OTHER COMMENTS WE'RE GONNA CALL THE ROLL. EXCEPT WE DO HAVE ONE THAT STEPPED OUT TO THE LADIES ROOM AND THEREFORE GET PERFECT TIME AS MAYOR WHILE THE COMMISSIONER IS APPROACHING THE BENCH SO TO SPEAK. EACH ITEM UNDER I'D HEARD AS HE AS EARLIER DESCRIBED UNDER 11 B WOULD BE CONSIDERED SEPARATELY BY MOTION WHICH IS THE BAILEY SQUARE SMALL SCALE LAND USE PLANNING MEANT FOR THE RECORD IN ELEVEN B WHICH IS THE BAILEY SQUARE REZONING AND FLEXIBILITY UNITS BOTH OF WHICH WOULD REQUIRE A SEPARATE VOTE SEPARATE SUPPORT LEGALLY TO BE ABLE TO MATCH THE PAST AND THROUGH FURTHER.

THEN FOR THE RECORD IS AS FOLLOWS TEMPER RESOLUTION NUMBER 1 3 2 5 7. IT IS A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY TAMARACK FLORIDA GRANTING MAJOR SITE PLAN APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS FOR ROCK ISLAND SELF-STORAGE TO ALLOW FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A HUNDRED SEVEN THOUSAND 542 SQUARE FOOT SELF-STORAGE FACILITY ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY LOCATED AT 5 6 0 2 NORTH ROCK ISLAND ROAD IN CASE NUMBER 17 DASH P DASH 8 TEAM PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS ONE OF SEVERABILITY AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH INDEED EMOTION AND SECOND TO BRING INTO THE FLOOR MOVED SO MOVED. SECOND THANK YOU. AT THIS TIME I WILL ASK FOR ANY DISCLOSURES. MR. FISHMAN CHOKING ON MY COUGH DROP.

VICE MAYOR. NO I DID NOT WE COULD NOT WORK OUR SCHEDULES OUT BOLTON. DENNIS MEALY IN MY OFFICE. I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH THE BUT THEN IT REALLY IT WAS POSSIBLY MY OFFICE BUT I HAD A CHANGE OF AN APPOINTMENT SO IT WAS ON A CONFERENCE CALL. SEEING THAT WE HAVE NO OTHER DISCLOSURES AT THIS TIME WE NEED TO SWEAR PEOPLE IN. CITY CLERK WILL YOU PLEASE WHERE ALL THOSE WHO WISH TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS MATTER. DO YOU SWEAR OR AFFIRM 
          [04:45:08]
THAT THE TESTIMONY THAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO PROVIDE SHALL BE THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS SAME PROCESS AND PROCEDURE. THE STAFF THROUGH THE PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT OF MAXINE KELLER WILL PRESENT THE CITY'S PRESENTATION ALONG WITH ANY SLIDESHOW BACKGROUND BACKGROUND EXHIBITS ETC. TO SUPPLEMENT THE PREVIOUS RECORD ON THE SUBJECT APPLICATION. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. LET'S GO. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SAM. MAXINE CALLOWAY. FOR THE RECORD COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR AS SEEN ON THE SLIDE THIS ITEM IS A MAJOR REVISED SIDE PLAN. WE HAVE ALSO INCLUDED THE VARIANCES FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AS WELL AS YOU REMEMBER AT THE LAST MEETING WHEN YOU DELIBERATED ON THE LAND USE AMENDMENT REZONING AND FLEX ALLOCATION THE APPLICANT AGREED TO HAVE THE ITEMS ADVANCE TO YOU FOR FINAL DECISION MAKING ON VARIANCES AND MAJOR REVISED PIPELINE. SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE THIS AFTERNOON. SO THE PROPERTY IS VACANT WHAT'S BEEN PROPOSED IS A SELF-STORAGE FACILITY FEATURE LAND USE DESIGNATION OF COMMERCIAL WHICH WAS DONE AS A CONSEQUENCE OF A SMALL SCALE LAND USE AMENDMENT AND A ZONING DESIGNATION OF EMU AND WHICH IS YOUR MIXED USE NEIGHBORHOOD DESIGNATION. THE PROPERTY IS IN DISTRICT 1 COMMISSIONER BOLTON'S DISTRICT. JUST SOME BACKGROUND WE'RE VERY VERY FAMILIAR WITH THIS PROPERTY AS WE KNOW IT WAS SUBJECT TO LITIGATION FOR YEARS AND THEN ON JUNE 27 2018 THE CITY ENTERED INTO A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND THERE IS A PROPOSED SALE CONTRACT THAT'S ASSOCIATED WITH THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT THAT'S PREDICATED ON SEVERAL ENTITLEMENT TO OCCUR MUCH AS MUCH OF WHICH HAS ALREADY HAPPENED WITH THE SITE PLAN ARE STILL PENDING. SO ON JANUARY 9 2019 THAT'S WHEN WE APPROVED THE ALLOCATION OF THE FLEX THE LAND USE AMENDMENT THE REZONING ON FEBRUARY 28. WE HAD OUR LAND USE MAP RECERTIFIED AS A RESULT OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE LAND USE AMENDMENT AND THEN ON MARCH 5TH 2019 THE CITY THE COUNTY COMMISSION APPROVED THE RELEASE OF RESTRICTIVE COVENANT FROM THE PROPERTY WHICH RESTRICTED IT JUST TO A FIRE STATION THAT WAS LIFTED. SO THIS IS THE PROPERTIES ON THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF COMMERCIAL AND ROCK ISLAND IS ONE POINT SEVENTY SIX ACRES IN SIZE. THE PROPERTY IS SIGNIFICANTLY CHALLENGED AS THE APPLICANT HAS DISCUSSED BEFORE. IT'S AN UNUSUAL CONFIGURATION. THERE IS A 100 FOOT WIDE FPL EASEMENT THAT COVERS THE ENTIRE FRONTAGE OF THE PROPERTY AND AS SUCH APPLICANT TO SEEK AND SEVERAL VARIANCES TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED CAN FIT ON THE PROPERTY. WHAT'S LEFT FOR DEVELOPMENT IS LESS THAN AN ACRE IN SIZE AND SO IT'S STAFF OPINION THAT ANY PROJECT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN PROPOSED ON THIS PROPERTY WOULD REQUIRE VARIANCES IN ORDER FOR IT TO FIT. SO THE REQUEST FOR THE VARIANCES IS FIVE VARIANCES ONE FOR THE BUILDING HEIGHT TO ALLOW A MAXIMUM OF FIFTY EIGHT POINT FOUR WHEN THE CODE ONLY ALLOWS FOR 40 AND VARIANCE ON THE SIDE YARD AND REAL ON THE SIDE AND RAIL YARD SETBACK OF TWENTY FEET WHERE 25 IS REQUIRED BY CODE A VARIANCE TO ALLOW THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER OF 20 FEET WHERE 50 FEET IS REQUIRED BY CODE A VARIANCE TO ALLOW THE PEDESTRIAN ZONE OF 14 FEET WHERE 19 FEET IS REQUIRED BY GOAT CODE AND A VARIANCE FROM BARRETT'S SECTION OF THE CODE FOR AN ARCHITECTURAL FEATURE SPECIFICALLY FOR PARKING IN THE REAR. AS WE KNOW THE PARKING WOULD BE IN THE FRONT FOR BUILDING TRANSPARENCY WHICH IS THE GLAZING THAT IS REQUIRED ON THE WINDOWS AND FOR PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES ON WITH OUR NEW CODE THE DESIGN STANDARD REQUIRES THAT CERTAIN BUILDING HAVE CHAIRS AND SEATS FOR PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES. AND THIS PROJECT WILL NOT HAVE ANY OF THOSE. SO THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF WHAT A VARIANCE IS FOR THE MOST PART IS TO ALLOW CERTAIN DEVIATIONS FROM THE CODE. WHEN THE LAND OWNER IS ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY IS NOT AS RESULTS ARE CAUSED BY THE LAND OWNER THEMSELF. SO THE STANDARD FOR THE VARIANCE IS ENUMERATED IN OUR CODE. THERE ARE EIGHT STANDARDS OR CRITERIA THAT HAS TO BE MET BY THE APPLICANT. THE APPLICANT HAS MET ALL THE CRITERIA AND STANDARD AS INDICATED IN STAFF MEMO AND THE ANALYSIS FOR THOSE IS ALSO INCLUDED IN STAFF MEMO. SO THIS IS A SLIDE OFF THE SIDE PLAN THAT SHOWS THAT THE STRUCTURE WILL BE ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND FORTY TWO SQUARE FEET. IT WILL BE FIVE STORIES IN HEIGHT BUT IT WILL BE CAMOUFLAGE TO APPEAR AS A THREE STORY BUILDING 15 PARKING STALLS WILL BE PROVIDED ONE HANDICAPPED PARKING STALL AND FOUR COVERED LOADING BAYS ACCESS WILL BE PROVIDED FROM ONE POINT JUST ROCK ISLAND AND THAT'S INDICATED THE RED INGRESS EGRESS AREAS THAT YOU'RE SEEING ON ROCK ISLAND STAFF WORKED DILIGENTLY WITH THE APPLICANT AND WITH HER ARCHITECTURAL PEER REVIEWED JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE BUILDING WAS 
          [04:50:02]
ARCHITECTURALLY APPEALING AND THAT IT LOOKED MORE LIKE AN OFFICE BUILDING AND LESS LIKE A STORAGE FACILITY. SO THIS IS JUST SHOWING YOU ALL THE ELEVATIONS FOR THE BUILDING THE WEST THE SOUTH THE EAST AND THE NORTH ELEVATIONS SOME OF THE ARCHITECTURAL ENHANCEMENTS THAT WOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE BUILDING. THE APPLICANT WAS ABLE TO WORK WITH STAFF AND REDUCE THE BUILT IN HEIGHT FROM THE LAST TIME YOU SAW IT TO 58 FEET. IT WILL APPEAR AS A THREE STOREY BUILDING. WE HAVE MEDITERRANEAN ROOF FEATURES THAT WILL BE INCLUDED DECORATIVE WINDOW CANOPIES SOME GROUND FLOOR WINDOW GLAZING A FULLY ENCLOSED LOADING AREA A COVERED ENTRY WAYS FOX WINDOWS WITH TRIM FOUR SIDED ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN FACADE BANDING COMPLEMENTARY NEUTRAL PAINT FULLY ENCLOSED DUMPSTER SOME FOX BALCONIES ALONG THE FACADE WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH THE APPROVAL THAT WE DID ON MATT NAB THE SAME KIND OF ARCHITECTURAL FEATURE THAT WE INCLUDED ON THAT AND RECESSED WALLS AND WINDOWS IN TERMS OF THE OPERATION OF THE BUILDING. THE HOURS OF OPERATION WOULD BE SUNDAY THROUGH SATURDAY 9 A.M. TO 6 P.M. ACCESS TO THE BUILDING WILL BE FROM 6 A.M. TO 10 P.M. FOR THE PATRONS OR THE USERS OF THE BUILDING. THE APPLICANT PLANS ON EMPLOYING FOUR LOCAL EMPLOYEES AND THEN THERE WILL BE SIX NON-LOCAL EMPLOYEES THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR THIS LOCATION. THERE THERE'S SOME STATISTICS ON THE FREQUENCY OR THE USE OF SELF SELF-STORAGE FACILITIES. FORTY ONE PERCENT OF RENTERS VISIT THEIR UNIT ONCE PER MONTH AND 44 PERCENT VISIT THEIR UNITS SIX TIMES PER YEAR. THERE'S GONNA BE SIX UNIT SIZES THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE AND YOU SEE THEM FIVE BY FIVE A FIVE BY TEN. TEN BY TEN. TEN BY 15 10 BY 20 AND THE LARGEST BEING A 10 BY 30 AND A TOTAL OF SEVEN HUNDRED AND FORTY TO EIGHT HUNDRED AND FORTY UNITS WOULD BE IN THE BUILDING. THE APPLICANT PLANS ON OCCUPYING THE BUILDING BY PHASES WITH THE FIRST FLOOR. THEN THE SECOND FLOOR AND THE THIRD FLOOR JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE ABLE TO CONTROL TRAFFIC ONTO THE SITE THERE'S GOING TO BE INSURANCE REQUIRED FROM THE TENANTS THAT ARE USING THE UNITS AND THERE'S SUFFICIENT SECURITY THAT'S GOING TO BE PROVIDED ON THE PROPERTY. APPROXIMATELY 60 SECURITY CAMERAS THAT WILL BE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING. IN ADDITION THERE IS GOING TO BE SECURE ACCESS THAT'S PROVIDED TO THE PATRONS OR THE USERS OF THE UNITS AND THIS ACCESS IS GOING TO BE PROVIDED USING A UNIQUE CODE FROM THEIR SMARTPHONE WITH RESPECT TO LANDSCAPING THE PROPERTY WILL BE SUFFICIENTLY LANDSCAPE OVER FORTY NINE PERCENT WHICH IS ABOVE THE CODE REQUIREMENT OF 30 30 PERCENT THE VEHICLE ACCESS AREA THAT NEEDS CODE 15 PERCENT IS REQUIRED BY CODE AND 15 PERCENT WOULD BE PROVIDED AND ALL THE TREES THAT ARE REQUIRED BY CODE WILL WILL BE PROVIDED. ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY NINE TREES THIS SLIDE IS SHOWING THE PROPERTY TO THE EAST OF THE SELF-STORAGE SITE WHICH IS A SUN VISTA GARDEN CONDO PROPERTY. IT'S SOMEWHAT UNSIGHTLY SO STAFF ASKS THE APPLICANT TO IMPROVE THIS AS WELL AND THE APPLICANT HAS AGREED TO DO THAT. SO THIS SUGGESTS A PLAN SHOWING WHAT THAT WOULD LOOK LIKE. WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE APPLICANT TO ENHANCE THIS PLAN JUST TO MAKE SURE WE GET SOME MORE TREES AND THE APPLICANT HAS AGREED TO DO THAT THE TRAFFIC ANALYSIS WAS DISCUSSED DURING THE LAST MEETINGS ON THE LAND USE AMENDMENT AND WE TALKED ABOUT HOW TO MINIMIZE IT IS AND THIS IS JUST A SNAPSHOT OF A SEGMENT OF THE REPORT SHOWING THAT THERE WILL BE MINIMAL IMPACT ON THE EXISTING ROADWAYS. THIRTEEN TOTAL AM TRAFFIC TO BE GENERATED AND 21 TOTAL P.M. TRAFFIC TO BE GENERATED AND THIS IS JUST A FULL RENDERING OF WHAT THE BUILDING WILL LOOK LIKE. STAFF IS RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF THE SITE PLAN AND THE VARIANCES AS OUTLINED IN THE MEMO AND ALSO IN THIS PRESENTATION. THE PLANNING BOARD ALSO RECOMMENDED APPROVAL BY A VOTE OF THREE TO ZERO FOR BOTH THE VARIANCES AS WELL AS THE SITE PLAN. IN ADDITION TO THAT THE PLANNING BOARD INCLUDED A CONDITION TO REDUCE THE HEIGHT TO 58 FEET OF COURSE WHICH APPLICANT HAS AGREED TO AND HAS ALREADY DONE AS SEEN IN THE RENDERINGS. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AT THE SAME OPEN UP THE APPLICANT PLEASE. THANK YOU DENNIS MERELY 200 IS FOR OUR BOULEVARD FORT LAUDERDALE ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT IT IS COLD IN HERE IS I THINK I HAVE SOME SLIDES I'M SORRY DURING HIS WORK. OKAY AS MR. MILLER BEGINS HIS PRESENTATION MADAM MARINE COMMISSION WHATEVER DOCUMENTS HAVE BEEN OFFERED UP ICED BY THE CITY'S PROFESSIONAL STAFF YOUR PARTY YOUR RECORD IN DECIDING THE ISSUE THIS AFTERNOON AS WELL AS ANY PRIOR DOCUMENTS THAT WERE OFFERED BOTH TO THE COMMISSION AND TO THE PLANNING BOARD AND TO STAFF. THANK YOU SO I'D LIKE TO 
          [04:55:03]
START BY TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE'VE DONE SINCE THE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE. SO THE LAST TIME AND I KNOW THAT MISS CALLOWAY DID SOME OF THAT ALREADY. SO THE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE THERE WAS AN APPROVAL OF BOTH THE SMALL SCALE LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT AND THE REZONING WITH FLEX KIND OF THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU JUST HAD YOU HAD YOUR PRIOR APPLICATION THAT WAS ON THE AGENDA WAS GOING FROM COMMERCIAL TO RESIDENTIAL. 
          THIS ONE WENT FROM RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL SO THOUGH THE ZONING IS IN PLACE AND THE LAND USE IS IN PLACE IT'S COMMERCIAL LAND USE AND IT'S THE MQ AND ZONING. SO CURRENTLY THE PROPERTY WOULD BE ALLOWED TO HAVE ANY COMMERCIAL USE THAT WOULD FIT IN THAT M AND ZONING SIMILAR TO YOUR PREVIOUS SITE AND WHERE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT DIFFERENT TYPES OF COMMERCIAL USES. ONCE YOU HAVE THAT ZONING YOU CAN PUT ANY COMMERCIAL USE ON THIS PROPERTY THAT'S LISTED IN THAT ZONING. SO THAT'S WHAT'S ALLOWED THERE TODAY. NOW THAT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN WHERE WE WERE WHEN WE WERE HERE LAST TIME BECAUSE YOU WERE JUST VOTING ON THE ZONING AT THAT POINT. SO THAT ZONING IS IN PLACE THE APPEAL PERIOD HAS EXPIRED AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE LIST OF EMMY WHEN USES IT'S A VERY BROAD LIST OF COMMERCIAL USES THAT COULD GO HERE. THE REASON I MENTIONED THAT IS BECAUSE ALL THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS WE'VE BEEN FOCUSING ON TRAFFIC AND I'LL I'LL COME BACK TO THAT LATER. AND THE SELF-STORAGE USE IS A VERY LOW TRAFFIC GENERATOR AS WE JUST MENTIONED. IN ADDITION SINCE THE LAST MEETING WE WERE AT THE COUNTY COMMISSION IN THE COUNTY COMMISSION UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE RELEASE OF THE RESTRICTIVE COVENANT WAS A 9 9 2 0 VOTE. SO THERE IS NO LONGER A RESTRICTION FOR FIRE STATION USE. YOU RECALL WHEN WE WERE HERE LAST TIME THAT WAS STILL IN EFFECT AS MS CALLAWAY MENTIONED WE ALSO WENT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD LEVEL OF THE VARIANCES. AND THE SITE PLAN WE DID AT THAT MEETING REDUCED THE BUILDING HEIGHT AND I'LL TALK ABOUT THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE. SO THIS IS THE AERIAL PHOTO VERY SIMILAR TO A CHARITY SAW AND AGAIN VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU ALREADY SAW. WE JUST TURNED IT SIDEWAYS NOW SO ROCK ISLANDS AT THE BOTTOM AND COMMERCIALS ON THE RIGHT THE DEVELOPABLE AREA IS ONLY ROUGHLY EIGHT TENTHS OF AN ACRE BECAUSE THE FPL EASEMENT. THE ONLY THING YOU CAN REALLY PUT THERE IS IS PARKING AND LANDSCAPING. YOU CAN'T PUT ANY BUILDINGS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT IN THAT AREA PICTURES OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE TODAY. YOU SEE THE POWER LINES REALLY DOMINATE THE PICTURES OK. SO THIS IS THE TRAFFIC COMPARISON WE ORIGINALLY DID WHEN THE BUILDING WAS ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND SQUARE FEET. AS YOU KNOW FROM THE REPORT MISS CALLAWAY GAVE YOU WE'RE NOW ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED SQUARE FEET. SO JUST FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES I KNOW YOU WERE LOOKING EARLIER AT THE MORNING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHERE IT SHOWED 13 TRIPS DURING THAT MORNING RUSH HOUR. THAT WAS BASED ON THE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT IT WOULD NOW BE. ELEVEN TRIPS. AND IF YOU LOOK AT THIS CHART OUR PM PEAK HOUR OR AFTERNOON RUSH HOUR WE'RE SHOWING 21 TRIPS NOW THAT THE BUILDINGS DOWN TO ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN THOUSAND AND CHANGE IT'S 18 TRIPS INSTEAD OF 21 INSTEAD OF THE ONE EIGHTY NINE IT WOULD BE 162. SO IF YOU WERE YOU SEE 21 SUBSTITUTE 18 WHERE YOU SEE ONE 89 SUBSTITUTE 162. NOW WITH THE EMU AND ZONING YOU COULD HAVE A GAS STATION THERE WITH CONVENIENCE STORE YOU SEE THE TRIPS ASSOCIATED WITH THAT AND YOU SEE HOW MUCH LESS WE ARE. I MEAN WE ARE A MERE FRACTION OF WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF IT WAS A GAS STATION WITH CONVENIENCE STORE AND THEN ALSO AT THE BOTTOM PORTION IF IT WAS A RETAIL USE AND WE WOULD USE THE TEN THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED SQUARE FEET THE BROWARD COUNTY PLANNING COUNCIL KIND OF GIVES US THE NUMBERS TO USE WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT A VACANT PIECE OF LAND AND YOU'RE LOOKING AT A LAND USE WHAT CAN YOU FIT. AND THAT'S WHERE WE COME UP WITH THE TEN THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND YOU SEE THAT WE'RE LESS THAN HALF NOW THAT WE'RE DOWN TO 18 TRIPS HUNDRED SIXTY TWO. WE'RE LESS THAN HALF OF THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC YOU'D HAVE WITH A REGULAR RETAIL STRIP. THERE ARE THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER WHO DID THIS WORK FOR US AS SUZANNE DANIELSON SHE'S HERE. SHE WAS ALSO ON THE PREVIOUS ITEM IF YOU RECALL AND MUCH LIKE THE PREVIOUS ITEM SUSAN SUSANNE PRODUCED THE STUDY WE PROVIDED IT TO THE CITY CARL PETERSON THE CITY'S TRAFFIC ENGINEER REVIEWED IT AND SAID THAT THE NUMBERS WERE CORRECT AND THE CONCLUSIONS WERE CORRECT. 
          SO THESE NUMBERS AND THESE TRAFFIC FIGURES HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY YOUR EXPERT CARL PETERSON WHO'S BEEN YOUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS SO THIS WAS OUR ORIGINAL PLAN. AND YOU SEE THAT THE BUILDING HAD A HEIGHT OF 73 FEET WHEN WE HAD OUR COMMUNITY MEETINGS. THIS IS WHAT WE HAD. THIS IS WHAT WE SHOWED. AND THEN YOU MAY RECALL WHEN WE WERE HERE FOR ONE OF OUR EARLIER MEETINGS THAT CITY COMMISSION WE HAD REDUCED THE BUILDING BY 10 FEET IN HEIGHT DOWN TO 63 FEET FOUR 
          [05:00:03]
INCHES. WHEN WE WENT WHEN WE WERE HERE LAST TIME I COULD TELL THAT EVEN WITH THIS REDUCED HEIGHT THAT WAS STILL A CONCERN. AND SO WE REDUCED IT FURTHER AND I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU WHERE WE'RE AT NOW. SO NOW WE'RE AT 58 FEET. SO WE'RE 73 DOWN TO 63 AND CHANGE. NOW DOWN TO 58 WHAT WE ALSO DID IS THE BUILDING GOT SMALLER NOT ONLY IN HEIGHT BUT IN WIDTH. OUR EAST-WEST DIMENSION SO AS YOU'RE LOOKING AT THAT BUILDING IF YOU WERE STANDING ON COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD AND LOOKING NORTH THE WIDTH OF THAT WALL IS 20 FEET NARROWER THAN IT WAS BEFORE. SO WE NOT ONLY REDUCED THE HEIGHT WE REDUCED THE FOOTPRINT AND THE SQUARE FOOTAGE AS WELL ALTHOUGH WE DID RETAIN THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN. SO YOU CAN SEE THAT EVEN THOUGH THE BUILDINGS SHORTER AND NARROWER IT STILL HAS ALL OF THE SAME ATTRIBUTES THAT IT DID BEFORE ALL THAT WERE DESCRIBED BY MISS CALLAWAY EARLIER. NOW WHENEVER WE LOOK AT BUILDING HEIGHT AND WE LOOK AT OTHER USES IN THE AREA WE OFTEN WILL HEAR PEOPLE SAY WELL I DON'T WANT SOMEONE IN THE UPPER FLOOR OF THAT BUILDING LOOKING OUT OF THEIR WINDOW INTO MY YARD. WELL THE GOOD NEWS HERE IS THOSE THINGS THAT APPEAR TO BE WINDOWS ON THE UPPER FLOOR ARE NOT THAT YOU CAN'T SEE THROUGH THEM. THERE ARE GLASS APPLICATOR KIND OF THING. SO NO ONE CAN LOOK OUT OF THE UPPER STORE UPPER STORIES OF THIS BUILDING AND LOOK INTO SOMEBODY ELSE'S YARD OR SOMEBODY ELSE'S HOUSE BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE OUT THOSE WINDOWS. NOW THE SECOND PART WHEN WE LOOK AT THE HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS AND THE AREAS AROUND IT IS WHEN YOU ARE IN YOUR HOME OR YOUR YOUR OFFICE WHEREVER YOU ARE AND YOU'RE LOOKING TOWARDS THIS DIRECTION WHAT CAN YOU SEE. 
          SO MY WINDOW ARGUMENT HELPS FROM NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE OUT OF THIS BUILDING INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. HOW DO WE ADDRESS. IF I'M IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD I'M LOOKING TOWARDS THIS BUILDING. WHAT WILL I SEE AND I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING THAT WILL HELP US WITH THAT. SO AGAIN JUST A LITTLE COMPARISON. YOU SEE THE THREE DIFFERENT VERSIONS. WE STARTED ON THE LEFT WITH THE 73 FEET WHEN WE WERE HERE LAST TIME WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE REVISION NUMBER 163 AND NOW REVISION NUMBER TO 58 BUT AGAIN YOU CAN SEE THE ARCHITECTURAL TREATMENT HAS REMAINED THE SAME OK. HERE'S THE SITE PLAN. THE FPL EASEMENT IS THAT WHOLE RECTANGLE RIGHT ALONG ROCK ISLAND ROAD AND YOU SEE THERE IT'S JUST GREEN AREA AND LANDSCAPING. AS I MENTIONED EARLIER THE BUILDING FOOTPRINT SHRUNK. WE USED TO GO THE BUILDING ITSELF USED TO GO RIGHT UP TO THE EDGE OF THE FPL EASEMENT AND NOW IT'S BEEN PULLED BACK 20 FEET ALL RIGHT. YOU MAY REMEMBER LAST TIME I HAD THIS PANORAMIC VIDEO. SO WHAT THIS WAS IS WE HAD A DRONE AND WE HAD IT GO UP TO 64 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND. THE REASON FOR 64 FEET WHEN WE WERE LAST YEAR WE WERE AT 63 FEET AND FOUR INCHES. SO WE HAD THAT DRONE GO UP TO 64 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND AND THEN WE HAD IT SHOOT PHOTOGRAPHY AND THE 360 DEGREES ALL AROUND THE PROPERTY. UNFORTUNATELY THE VIDEO ISN'T WORKING BUT MAYBE THAT'S FORTUNATE WITH THE LATE HOUR. SO I WILL SHOW YOU SOME STILL PICTURES THOUGH THAT GIVE YOU THE SAME VIEW. SO THIS IS LOOKING TO OUR NORTH AND YOU REMEMBER THAT NORTH AND EAST IS WHERE WE HAVE OUR CLOSEST RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORS. SO THIS IS LOOKING TO THE NORTH AND YOU CAN SEE AT 64 FEET YOU COULD NOT SEE ANY OF THESE BUILDINGS WHICH MEANS THE PEOPLE IN THE BUILDINGS COULDN'T SEE US EITHER. NOW THAT WE'RE 58 FEET IT'S STILL TRUE THAT THEY CAN'T SEE US BECAUSE IF YOU COULDN'T SEE US AT 64 YOU CERTAINLY CAN'T SEE US AT 58 WE GO TO THE WEST NOW YOU'VE GOT ROCK ISLAND ROAD IN THE FOREGROUND AND YOU HAVE THE HOMES WEST OF ROCK ISLAND. SO WHETHER WE'RE 58 OR 64 THIS IS PRETTY MUCH GOING TO BE THE SAME. AND THEN LOOKING A LITTLE BIT I GUESS KIND OF TO THE SOUTHWEST YOU SEE THE PROPERTY ACROSS THE STREET. WHEN WE WERE HERE LAST TIME WE TALKED ABOUT THE CLOSEST HOME. IF YOU CAN SEE KIND OF IN THE CENTER RIGHT HAND PORTION OF THAT DRAWING YOU SEE KIND OF A LITTLE DAB OF WHITE THAT'S THE CLOSEST HOUSE THAT FAR AWAY AND THEN LOOKING DIRECTLY TO THE SOUTH OF COURSE WE HAVE THE SHOPPING CENTER IN THE FOREGROUND FOREGROUND AND THE RESIDENTIAL BEHIND IT. AND AGAIN ALL OF THESE PHOTOGRAPHS WERE AT 64 FEET ABOVE GROUND LEVEL WE'RE NOW AT A MAXIMUM OF 58 AND THEN HERE'S EAST. SO AGAIN YOU'RE SEEING SOME ROOFTOPS AND A LITTLE BIT OF A WALL AND A ROOF TO THE RIGHT HAND PORTION BEING SIX FEET LOWER THAN THIS YOU WOULD SEE EVEN LESS THAN WHAT YOU SEE ON THERE NOW. ALSO I WANT TO POINT OUT AS MS CALLAWAY MENTIONED THE SUN 
          [05:05:03]
VISTA PROPERTY WHICH IS TO OUR EAST DOESN'T HAVE MUCH IN THE WAY OF LANDSCAPING ALONG COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD. AND SO WE WERE ASKED TO PROVIDE LANDSCAPING FOR THAT AREA. IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT'S NORMALLY DONE. IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WOULD NORMALLY BE PART OF OUR APPLICATION BUT WE WERE ASKED TO DO IT AND WE AGREED. AND SO WE'VE SUBMITTED PLANS NOT ONLY TO THE CITY BUT ALSO TO THE ASSOCIATION THEIR PROPERTY MANAGER WAS CONFERRING WITH THEIR BOARD. WE WERE GETTING GOOD FEEDBACK ON THE PLAN AND THEN THEY CHANGED PROPERTY MANAGERS. SO WE'VE NOW ASKED THEM TO FORWARD IT TO THE NEW MANAGER AND TO COME BACK TO US. BUT AS LONG AS THEY WANT THAT PLAN OR SOMETHING SIMILAR AS LONG AS IT'S REASONABLE WE'LL BE HAPPY TO DO IT. WE HAVE NO OBJECTION TO PROVIDING THE LANDSCAPING IN FRONT OF THEIR PROPERTY. SO I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT A COUPLE OF OTHER THINGS BRIEFLY AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PORTION OF THIS. ITEM 11 WHEN YOU'RE AROUND 11 A MR. BOURNE DESCRIBED TO YOU ABOUT SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT AGAIN FOR A MINUTE BECAUSE DIFFERENT TYPES OF APPLICATIONS HAVE DIFFERENT STANDARDS OF REVIEW A LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT IS WHERE YOUR DISCRETION IS AT ITS MAXIMUM IN TERMS OF APPROVING OR DENYING AS YOU GO DOWN THAT ROAD. NEXT THING BEING ZONING YOUR DISCRETION NARROWS A LITTLE BIT WHEN YOU GET TO A POINT LIKE THIS WHERE IT'S A SITE PLAN. WE'RE BASICALLY LOOKING AT COMPLIANCE WITH THE CODE DO WE COMPLY WITH THE CODE. NOW MISS CALLAWAY TOLD YOU ABOUT THE VARIANCES ALL OF WHICH WERE FULLY JUSTIFIED BY THE UNUSUAL SHAPE OF THE PROPERTY THE ENCUMBRANCE OF THE ESPIONAGE EASEMENT AND ALL OF THOSE ISSUES WERE FACTORED IN UNDER THE NORMAL PROCEDURE HERE IN TAMARACK. THE VARIANCES WOULD BE DONE BECAUSE WHEN THEY GO TO THE PLANNING BOARD THAT'S USUALLY THE END. NOW WE INTEGRATE OF COURSE WHEN WE CAME BACK HERE TODAY THAT WE WOULD COME AUTOMATICALLY ON THE SITE PLAN. YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO CALL IT UP. WE WOULD JUST COME AND WE DID THE SAME THING WITH THE VARIANCES. BUT I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THIS IS A MUCH DIFFERENT DISCUSSION THAN WHAT WE HAD LAST TIME BECAUSE LAST TIME WE WERE LOOKING AT ZONING AND LAND USE. NOW THAT'S DONE. NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT THE SITE PLAN. AND LAST TIME THERE WERE A LOT OF QUESTIONS THAT REALLY RELATED TO THE SITE PLAN. SO IT'S APPROPRIATE THAT WE DEAL WITH THOSE NOW. SO WHAT WE'VE DONE IS REDUCE THE SIZE REDUCE THE HEIGHT AGREED TO THE ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING FOR OUR NEIGHBORS. AND YOU KNOW YOU MAY RECALL THAT THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT WE HAD WHEN WE FIRST STARTED WAS MUCH MUCH LARGER THAN WHAT WE HAVE NOW. WHEN WE HAD OUR FIRST NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING I THINK WE HAD APPROXIMATELY 40 PEOPLE THERE. I KNOW MR. BOLTON YOU WERE THERE AND MAYOR YOU WERE THERE I WASN'T SO BUT THAT'S WHAT I WAS TOLD IT WAS ROUGHLY THAT NUMBER. AND THEN WHEN WE HAD OUR SECOND NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING AND MUCH LIKE YOUR PREVIOUS APPLICATION THAT WAS JUST AN EXTRA ONE THAT WE DID BECAUSE THERE WAS A CONCERN THAT EVERYONE DIDN'T GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO COME THE FIRST TIME. AND SO AT THE SECOND NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING I BELIEVE WE HAD EIGHT PEOPLE WE ALMOST MATCHED THEM WITH OUR GROUP WITH OUR ARE MY CLIENT AND OUR CONSULTANTS AND EVERYTHING. AND A LOT OF THE DISCUSSION WAS ABOUT TRAFFIC AND ABOUT THE CORNER AND EVERYTHING ELSE THERE. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE FOR AN ISSUE LIKE THIS WE HAVE OBVIOUSLY YOU HAVE HEARD FROM STAFF THEY'VE PRESENTED THEIR REPORT THEIR REPORT IS AN EXHIBIT FOR THE RECORD WE'VE PRESENTED OUR PRESENTATION WHICH I GUESS MR. GO ON WOULD BE OUR EXHIBIT A. I DON'T HAVE AN EXHIBIT B. SO I THINK WE'RE IN GOOD SHAPE. SHOULD THE MAYOR ACCEPT THAT THE RECORD. THANK YOU GENTLEMEN. YES PLEASE THINK SO. IN THIS TYPE OF A SITUATION WHERE YOU'RE LOOKING AT A SITE PLAN WE HAVE THE BURDEN TO PROVE OUR COMPLIANCE. AND I BELIEVE WE'VE DONE THAT BETWEEN THE STAFF REPORT AND OURS. SO THEN AT THAT POINT WHAT HAPPENS. IS THERE SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE TO VOTE AGAINST IT. SO SO FAR NONE OF THAT HAS BEEN PRESENTED BECAUSE MISS GALLOWAY DIDN'T PRESENT ANY AND I CERTAINLY DIDN'T. AND SO THAT'S HOW THIS JUDGMENT IS TO BE MADE. AT ANY RATE SETTING ALL THE LEGAL STUFF ASIDE WHAT WE TRIED TO DO IS WE HEARD THE CONCERNS OF OUR NEIGHBORS AND WE TRIED TO ADDRESS THEM MADE THE BUILDING SHORTER. WE MADE IT NARROWER. WE'D PUT IN MORE LANDSCAPING. WE'RE DOING LANDSCAPING ON OUR NEIGHBORS PROPERTY. WE REFINED OUR TRAFFIC ANALYSIS TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEE IT. AND THAT'S KIND OF WHERE WE'RE AT AT THIS POINT. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM. AND IF THERE'S A PUBLIC COMMENT LIKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RESPOND IS APPROPRIATE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AT THE TIME I'M GONNA OPEN UP PUBLIC HEARING. WAS THERE ANYBODY IN THE AUDIENCE WHO WISHES TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS MATTER SEEING THAT THERE'S NOBODY IN THE AUDIENCE THAT WISHED TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS MATTER PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW CLOSED AND I WILL GO TO COMMISSIONER. WELL I HAVE 
          [05:10:03]
COMMISSIONER GALEN LET LAST TIME I DO THIS I HAD COMMISSIONER BOLTON WANT TO JUST BE SO AS TO BUCKLE WE DO HERE WE TRY TO ALLOW THE COMMISSIONER OF THE DISTRICTS TO SPEAK MR. BOLTON DO YOU WISH TO SPEAK. THANK YOU. YEAH. THANK YOU. I WILL RESERVE SOME OF MY QUESTIONS FOR FOR LATER. HOWEVER I HAVE TWO QUESTIONS TO GET THIS PARTY STARTED. MR. MEALY YOU YOU HAVE SAID THAT YOU REDUCED. WELL WELL FIRST OF ALL THE THE PICTURE OR THE RENDERING THAT WE SEE IS THAT HOW THE BUILDING IS GOING TO LOOK CAN WE CAN WE PUT IT BACK UP. THANK YOU. I JUST THOUGHT IT'D BE HELPFUL TO PUT THE PICTURE UP WHILE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IT. ALL RIGHT. THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT PICTURE. 
          LET ME GET TO IT. OK THAT'S THAT'S THE BUILDING WE'RE PROPOSING AND THAT IS ACTUALLY. THESE DRAWINGS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED TO THE STAFF. IF THIS ITEM IS APPROVED THEN WE WILL SEEK A BUILDING PERMIT FOR THAT BUILDING. OKAY. THE BUILDING LOOKS BEAUTIFUL. THANK YOU. IT IS. IT IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL STORAGE FACILITY LIKE THE ONES TO THE TO THE EAST. VERY BEAUTIFUL. IT LOOKS LIKE A HOTEL. IT LOOKS LIKE A TALL GIGANTIC BEAUTIFUL HOTEL IN THE MIDDLE OF A RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY. IT IT IS TALLER THAN THE SUN VISTA. IT IS TALLER THAN THE PLAZA ACROSS THE STREET. IT'S TALLER THAN ANY OTHER HOUSE IN IN THE COMMUNITY. AND THAT IS WHAT THE RESIDENTS ARE OUTRAGED ABOUT IT. IT DOES NOT MATTER TO ME ALTHOUGH THAT IS A COMPLIMENT TO YOU UNDER THE BUILDING IS BEAUTIFUL. IT IS AS IT IS TO LIVE STILL A STORAGE FACILITY. IT IS IT STILL IS SOMETHING A BUILDING THAT PEOPLE GO AND PUT THEIR STUFF IN. IT'S NOT A COMMERCIAL BUILDING WHERE SOMEBODY CAN GO AND GET THEIR NAILS DONE OR GO TO A DOCTOR'S OFFICE OR THAT'S THAT SORT OF STUFF. SO SO THE RESIDENTS ARE ARE OUTRAGED WITH WITH THIS STORAGE FACILITY BEING IN OUR IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. SO ALTHOUGH YOU HAVE REDUCED THE SIZE OF THE BUILDING IT IS STILL THE TALLEST BUILDING. ARE THAT ARE WE. WE WILL HAVE IN DISTRICT 1 NOW WE WILL NOT DEVIATE FROM THE FACT THAT EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE REDUCED THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING SOME FEW FEET IT IS STILL FIVE STORIES. AM I CORRECT. 
          YES. STILL FIVE STORIES. SO ALL YOU HAVE DONE IS PROBABLY TAKEN OFF SOME ELEVATIONS FROM SOME TRIMMINGS ON THE TOP OF THE BUILDING. SOME THINGS THAT MADE THE BUILDING LOOK LIKE THAT. BUT THE BUILDING IS STILL FIVE FEET. IT IS NOT PALATABLE IF IF IF THE BUILDING WERE TWO FEET OR I MEAN TWO STOREY SORRY OR THREE STORIES IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PALATABLE BUT THIS IS A GIGANTIC BUILDING. IT TAKES ME BACK TO NORTH LAUDERDALE RIGHT THERE ON MCNABB. TWO MINUTES AWAY FROM THE BUILDING THAT YOU'RE BEING PROPOSED THAT IS BEING PROPOSED HERE AND THAT BUILDING IS GIANT ENORMOUS. IT COVERS WAL-MART. I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T APPROVE THAT. THAT'S A DIFFERENT CITY. BUT IT IT COVERS THE ENTIRE STREET. YOU SEE NOTHING BEHIND THAT BUILDING. IT'S MERELY YOU CANNOT EXPECT THAT THAT THAT I SUPPORT THIS. IT'S IT'S IT'S HORRIBLE. IT'S IT'S A HORRIBLE PROJECT FOR A HORRIBLE CORNER. AND THE RESIDENTS DO NOT WANT IT. IT IS IT IS NOT POLITICS. YOU KNOW WHAT I'M WHAT I'M SAYING TO YOU IS NOT APPEASING THE CROWD. WE DON'T WANT IT. INCLUDING ME AS A RESIDENT OF DISTRICT 1. WE DON'T WANT IT. 
          AND TO TO BRING FORWARD THIS BUILDING IS IS JUST ABSURD. AND SO AND SO THAT IS MY MY MY STARTING COMMENTS. I HAVE A LIST OF QUESTIONS AND I WANT TO BE THOUGHTFUL ABOUT THEM. I WANT TO BE ABLE TO TREAT YOU WITH THE UTMOST RESPECT. BUT JUST AFTER 
          [05:15:05]
YOUR PRESENTATION MAN MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS HIGH. WELL IF I COULD JUST RESPOND A LITTLE BIT. SO THE PICTURES THAT I'VE JUST PUT UP HERE NOW THIS IS THE SELF-STORAGE THAT WAS APPROVED ON MCNAB ROAD BETWEEN UNIVERSALLY AND BY NOW AND IT HASN'T BEEN BUILT YET BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THESE STYLE. VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE'RE DOING. AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE HEIGHT IT'S A BIT TALLER THAN US. IT'S ALMOST 61 FEET AT 60 FEET AND 8 INCHES. WE'RE AT 58. I KNOW THAT I'M NOT NECESSARILY ADDRESSING EXACTLY THE POINT YOU WERE MAKING BUT I DID WANT TO JUST YOU KNOW HOW DID WE COME UP WITH THE DESIGN. THE ONE IN NORTH LAUDERDALE I BELIEVE. AND AGAIN THIS IS MORE APPEARANCE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. THE ONE IN NORTH LAUDERDALE MAYBE THEY DON'T REVIEW THE SAME WAY YOU DO HERE AND TAMARACK BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE THIS ONE OR THE ONE THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO. AND THEN I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT ONE OTHER THING IN TERMS OF THE SITE SO I'M GOING THE WRONG WAY IN TERMS OF THE SITE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS FROM COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A VERY WIDE AREA OF JUST LANDSCAPING. YOU KNOW THAT FPL EASEMENTS 100 FEET WIDE AND THEN THERE'S ANOTHER 20 FOOT SETBACK OVER THAT SO YOU CAN SEE A 120 FOOT OF WIDTH AND AS YOU'RE DRIVING DOWN COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD WITH NO BUILDING ON IT. SO I KNOW THE ONE IN NORTH LAUDERDALE IT PROBABLY OCCUPIES THE SITE PROPERTY LINE THE PROPERTY LINE ALMOST HERE. WE HAVE A VERY LARGE OPEN AREA AND WE HAVE A SETBACK AN OPEN AREA ON THE EAST SIDE. BUT THE ONE OF THE WEST SIDES PARTICULARLY LARGE AND THEN WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT IT FROM ROCK ISLAND IN THE FOREGROUND YOU HAVE LANDSCAPING AND THE BUILDINGS BEHIND IT. SO I THINK THAT WITH THIS SITE BEING KIND OF A DIFFICULT TO WORK WITH BECAUSE IT'S SMALL BECAUSE IT'S GOT AN UNUSUAL SHAPE AND IT HAS THAT FBN PLACEMENT I THINK WE'VE DONE A PRETTY GOOD JOB OF FITTING THE BUILDING ON THE SITE AND STILL PRESERVING A LOT OF LANDSCAPING. I THINK MISS CALLAWAY MENTIONED THAT OUR OPEN SPACE PERCENTAGE IS VERY HIGH AS COMPARED TO WHAT THE CODE REQUIRES. NOW I DON'T I DON'T PRETEND TO KNOW THE HEIGHTS OF ALL THE BUILDINGS IN THE DISTRICT BUT I DO KNOW FOR EXAMPLE ON THE PREVIOUS APPLICATION THERE WAS A DISCUSSION ABOUT BUILDING THREE STORIES FOUR STORIES FIVE STORIES AS YOU WERE GOING ALONG THOSE ROADWAYS. AND SO IT'S NOT UNUSUAL TO SEE A MIXTURE OF HEIGHTS LIKE THIS. THE BUILDINGS RIGHT BEHIND US ARE THREE STORIES. SO THEY'RE PROBABLY SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 36 AND 40 FEET. I DIDN'T MEASURE THEM BUT THAT'S NORMALLY WHAT YOU'D GET WITH A THREE STOREY RESIDENTIAL BUILDING. SO YEAH WE'RE A LITTLE BIT TALLER BUT WE'RE NOT OUT OF LINE IN TERMS OF OUR COMPARISON WITH THEM. I KNOW THAT MIGHT NOT HELP THE BLOOD PRESSURE OR THE FEELING ABOUT IT BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE THOSE POINTS. THIRTY SIX FEET TO BE EXACT BUT IT'S 36 FEET ACROSS THE STREET. THAT WOULD BE NORMAL. AND SO PEOPLE ON THE HIGHEST LEVEL ON ON THEIR BALCONY IS IS BLOCKED BY BY BY THIS MONSTER OF A BUILDING I'M ON THE SIDE OF COMMERCIAL. 
          WELL AND THAT'S WHY I SHOWED THOSE VIEWS BECAUSE IF YOU RECALL TO BOTH THE NORTH AND THE EAST THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE US BECAUSE OF ALL THE EXISTING VEGETATION AND WE'RE NOT REMOVING THAT VEGETATION THAT'S GOING TO STAY THERE. SO THE TREES AND YOU CAN SEE THEM ON THIS AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH THE TREES EAST OF US AND NORTH OF US ARE TALL AND THICK. AND THAT'S WHY WE TOOK THAT DRONE SHOT BECAUSE THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE US NOW ON THE WEST SIDE OF ROCK ISLAND. YOU DID SEE THAT THEY COULD SEE US BUT THAT'S NOT WHERE WHEN WE HAD THESE HEARINGS AND PEOPLE CAME OUT. I DON'T KNOW ALL THE ADDRESSES BUT THE PEOPLE WE WERE HEARING FROM WERE NOT THE PEOPLE ON THE WEST SIDE OF ROCK ISLAND. THE PEOPLE YOU'RE HEARING FROM ARE NOT FROM THE WEST. THE PEOPLE THAT CAME TO THE MEETINGS WERE LARGELY FROM IDAHO CENTRAL PARK AND NOW THAT SOME OF THE PEOPLE THAT THAT CAME ARE FROM OUR FROM THE COMMUNITIES INSIDE THAT LITTLE COMMUNITY ONE OF THEM GOT A BEAUTIFICATION AWARD THIS MORNING AND WANTED TO ACTUALLY SPEAK AND HE HAD TO GO TO WORK. OBVIOUSLY IT'S OK. I DIDN'T READ 30 OR SO. SO HE HAS A HOUSE AND IN THAT LITTLE NEIGHBORHOOD THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS DON'T DON'T HAVE AN AGE AWAY SO THEY'RE NOT AS ORGANIZED AS LET'S SAY CENTRAL PARK. AND THAT'S THE STUFF BUT THEY DO COME OUT AND THEY DO SEND MESSAGES AND CALLS SO THEY THEY ARE THEY ARE VERY MUCH UPSET VERY MUCH UPSET. UNDERSTOOD. THANK YOU I WAS JUST CHECKING ON THE NOTICE I WANTED TO KNOW FOR THE MEETING. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING EVERYONE WITHIN 400 FEET RECEIVED NOTICE. SO THAT WOULD COVER SOME OF THESE AREAS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AND ALL I SEE ARE PEOPLE HERE FOR SOME OTHER 
          [05:20:06]
ISSUES. A LONG LONG LONG GONE. THE DAYS MR. MEALY WHEN WE SAY THAT BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T SHOW UP TO A MEETING DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY ARE IN A POSITION TO TO WORK TO A PROJECT. WHEN WE GO TO A TWO WAY MEETINGS THAT'S TYPICALLY WHEN THEY COME OUT AND AND THEY THEY ARGUE AND THE FIGHT AT US. TYPICALLY WHEN WE ARE HAVING OUR DINNER ON A SUNDAY EVENING THAT'S WHEN THEY ARE CALLING TO GET THEM TO A COMMISSION MEETING AT 9:00 IN THE MORNING OR 3 O'CLOCK IN THE AFTERNOON KNOWING THE NEW DEMOGRAPHIC GRAPHICS OF TAMARACK. IT POSES A LITTLE BIT OF ISSUES SOMETIMES AS WE'RE DISCUSSING ISSUES LIKE WE ARE NOW. THERE ARE PEOPLE ON FACEBOOK CHIMING IN AND COMMENTING AND THAT'S THE STUFF. SO JUST BECAUSE THERE ARE PEOPLE NOT IN THE ROOM RIGHT NOW DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY ARE NOT OUTRAGED. JUST THIS MORNING I GOT A BARRAGE OF EMAILS. SOME OF THEM I SAW VICE ME A BLACK HOLE BEING CCD ON ANOTHER COMMISSIONER'S EYE. WE'VE BEEN GETTING EMAILS FROM PEOPLE WE'VE BEEN GETTING PHONE CALLS AND TEXT MESSAGES JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT HERE DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY'RE NOT AGAINST THE PROJECT AND MANY OF THOSE PEOPLE HAVE COME HERE TIME AFTER TIME AFTER TIME WE SAT HERE UNTIL WE HOURS OF THE MORNING AND I GUARANTEE YOU OBVIOUSLY IF THEY WERE HERE AT 9 O'CLOCK THAT STILL BE THERE STILL WAITING NOW UP TO 4 O'CLOCK IN THE AFTERNOON IT IS A LONG DAY'S PROCESS AND KNOWING THE LIMITED LOOK KNOWING HOW THE RESIDENTS ESPECIALLY IN CENTRAL PARK ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THEIR CBD AND THAT'S THE STUFF THEY HAVE TO WORK TO PICK TO PAY THEIR MORTGAGE. YOU CAN'T JUST TAKE OFF EVERY TIME WE HAVE A COMMISSION MEETING. THAT IS WHY WE'RE THE ELECTED BODY OF THE CITY TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF OUR RESIDENTS. I DON'T EXPECT THAT RESIDENTS ARE GOING TO COME AND SHOW UP ALL THE TIME. I EXPECT THAT THEY CALL ME LIKE THEY HAVE. I EXPECT THAT THEY EMAIL LIKE THEY HAVE. I EXPECT THAT THEY BRING IT UP AT COMMISSION MEETING AT NEIGHBORHOOD MEETINGS LIKE THEY HAVE AND I WILL ADDRESS THEIR CONCERNS IN A PUBLIC MEETING LIKE THIS. SO TO SAY THAT THERE ARE NOBODY THERE'S NOBODY IN THE ROOM OPPOSING YOUR PROJECT. WELL GUESS WHAT. ON BEHALF OF THE DISTRICT 1 REPRESENTATIVES AND ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME TO ME AND TELL ME THAT YOUR PROJECT IS A BAD PROJECT AND THE BUILDING IS TOO TALL AND WE DON'T WANT STORAGE FACILITIES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD ON BEHALF OF ALL THOSE PEOPLE VIRTUAL PEOPLE SITTING HERE THROUGH MY MOUTH WE SAY NO. THAT'S IT FOR NOW COMMISSIONER GO ON THANKS MAYOR GOMEZ. SO ONE OF THE SLIDES THAT WAS A STATEMENT ABOUT THE DEVELOPER MANAGING THE OCCUPANCY PHASES. HOW WILL THE DEVELOPER MANAGE OCCUPANCY PHASES AND WILL WILL THEY BE THE SAME NUMBER AND TYPE OF UNITS PER FLOOR. 
          SO THE FIVE BY FIVE ALL THE DIFFERENT SIZES YEAH THEY'RE PRETTY MUCH DISTRIBUTED EQUALLY ON EACH FLOOR. OKAY. AND WHAT IS KELLER WAS TALKING ABOUT THE TIME AND TRAFFIC THE TIME IN A STORAGE FACILITY WHERE YOU COULD HAVE THE MOST TRAFFIC IS WHILE YOU'RE LEASING UP. RIGHT. BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE COMING. SO WHAT WE SAID WE WOULD DO IS LEASE FLOOR BY FLOOR SO WE DON'T HAVE EVERYBODY COMING. THE DAY WE OPEN WITH ALL FOUR ALL FIVE FLOORS OPEN ONCE WE'RE LEASED UP WE'RE NOT WORRIED ABOUT IT BECAUSE YOU SEE THE CITY'S STATISTICS ABOUT HOW INFREQUENTLY PEOPLE COME TO THEIR STORAGE UNIT. I THINK IT WAS 30 SOME PERCENT ONCE A MONTH AND THE REST OF THEM EVERY OTHER MONTH. SO THAT LEASE UPTIME IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT BURDENING THE AREA WITH TRAFFIC WE'RE DOING IT FLOOR BY FLOOR. AND I THINK YOU GUYS COVERED THIS WHEN YOU FIRST CAME TO US BUT JUST TO CLARIFY HAVE WE DISCUSSED FPL MOVING THOSE BIG POWERLINES UNDERGROUND. THE PROBLEM IS THESE ARE TRANSMISSION LINES NOT DISTRIBUTION LINES AND SO DISTRIBUTION LINES CAN BE BURIED. I MEAN I DON'T WANT TO SAY EASY BECAUSE IT'S EXPENSIVE BUT YOU CAN PUT THEM IN A CONDUIT AND PUT THEM UNDERGROUND TRANSMISSION LINES REQUIRE AN OIL COOLED VAULT TO PUT THEM UNDERGROUND AND YOU ALMOST NEVER SEE THAT HAPPEN AND THEN CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE DIFFERENCE IN THE HEIGHT BECAUSE YOU EXPLAIN THAT WE WENT FROM SEVENTY THREE TO SIXTY THREE AND A FOURTH AND FIFTH THE EIGHT FOR BUT IT'S STILL 5 STORIES. SO IT'S SO WHETHER IT'S 73 OR 58 IT'S FIVE STORIES. IT'S NOT CLEAR. YEAH I'M GOING TO GET TO THOSE PICTURES REAL QUICK. OK. SO BASICALLY WHAT WE DID. IF 
          [05:25:03]
YOU LOOK AT THE FIRST PICTURE YOU'LL SEE THAT. LET ME GET TO THE BIG PICTURE BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE THIS AS WELL OK. SO IF YOU LOOK AT THIS PICTURE YOU SEE THAT THOSE BARREL TILE ELEMENTS ARE LIKE MOUNTED ON TOP OF THE BUILDING. RIGHT. SO THEY ADD HEIGHT ABOVE THE PARAPET. IF YOU LOOK AT THE NEXT PICTURE WE TOOK THOSE ROOF ELEMENTS OFF ALTOGETHER SO THAT ACCOUNTED FOR THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 73 AND THE 63. NOW 58 DID A COUPLE OF THINGS FIRST OF ALL THE FIRST FLOOR HIT A LITTLE HIGHER CLEARANCE WE WERE ABLE TO GET A LITTLE BIT LESS IN THERE AND THEN YOU NOTICE NOW THAT THE ROOF ELEMENTS THOSE BARREL TILE ROOF ELEMENTS ARE NOT MOUNTED ABOVE THE PARAPET. THERE ARE EVEN WITH THE PARAPET AND COME DOWN LOWER IF YOU LOOK AT THAT FRONT CORNER THERE YOU CAN SEE THAT THE TOP OF THAT BARREL TILE ROOF ELEMENT IS THE SAME HEIGHT AS THE PARAPET. SO WE LOST A LITTLE BIT OF SQUARE FOOTAGE WHEN WE DID THAT BECAUSE THAT FIFTH FLOOR NOW IS NOT A COMPLETE FLOOR EACH CORNER WHERE THESE ROOF ELEMENTS ARE YOU LOSE SOME SQUARE FOOTAGE THERE. THAT'S PART OF. AND THEN WITH MAKING THE BUILDING NARROWER. THAT'S HOW WE WENT FROM A HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND SQUARE FEET DOWN TO ABOUT A HUNDRED AND SEVEN THOUSAND FIVE. SO IT'S STILL FIVE FLOORS OF STORAGE BUT THE CORNERS ARE KIND OF CUT OUT IN ORDER TO KEEP THAT HEIGHT REDUCTION. AND FOR US. THE KEY IS THE SQUARE FOOTAGE BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE'RE LEASING RIGHT I MEAN WE'RE LEASING SQUARE FOOTAGE WITHIN A BUILDING. SO THAT REDUCTION WAS SIGNIFICANT FOR US TO GO FROM 125 TO 1 0 7. OF COURSE THAT DIDN'T CHANGE OUR PURCHASE PRICE AND IT DOESN'T CHANGE OUR DEVELOPMENT COSTS. SO IT'S A LITTLE LESS PROFITABLE BUT IT STILL WORKS. SO IN REDUCING THE HEIGHT TO THE DEVELOPER HAVE TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF UNITS. YEAH. BECAUSE THE SQUARE FOOTAGE REDUCES THE NUMBER OF UNITS WOULD REDUCE. 
          SO YOU WENT FROM HOW MANY UNITS HOW MANY UNITS. FIND OUT ABOUT A REDUCTION OF ABOUT 150 UNITS OK WHAT'S THE COST PER UNIT. WELL I GUESS IT VARIES BY THE SIZE. YES. 
          OVER THANK YOU. COMMISSIONER GO ON COMMISSIONER EFFICIENT CAN YOU TELL ME AGAIN THE HOURS OF OPERATION FOR THE OFFICE THE HOURS OF OPERATION FOR THE OFFICE IS 9:00 A.M. TO 6:00 P.M. AND WE MAY HAVE SHORTER HOURS ON THE WEEKEND. 
          OKAY. AND PEOPLE CAN ACCESS THEIR UNITS FROM 6:00 A.M. TO 10:00 P.M. AND REMEMBER EVERYONE HAS A SECURITY FOB OR CARD TO GET IN. WE'VE GOT CAMERAS EVERYWHERE AND THE CAMERAS FEED TO WHERE TO GO TO A MONITORING LOCATION TO A COMPANY THAT MONITORS AND FOR US. AND DO THEY MONITOR 24 HOURS A DAY WHEN WE FIND OUT YES. YES THEY DO. SO IF SOMEBODY CHOSE TO TRY TO SLEEP IN THEIR UNIT THAT WOULD BE MONITORED BY OR THAT WOULD BE SEEN ON THE CAMERA AND CALLED IN. YEP. AND THEN WE WOULD TELL THEM YOU DO IT AGAIN YOU'RE OUT. YOU MAY RECALL AT THE PREVIOUS MEETING THERE WAS A QUESTION ABOUT PUBLIC SAFETY. AND YOUR CHIEF CAME UP. YOUR POLICE CHIEF CAME UP AND TALKED ABOUT THE EXISTING SELF-STORAGE FACILITY. I THINK IT'S THE SAFEGUARD THAT'S A LITTLE BIT FURTHER WEST ON COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD. AND HE SAID IN FIVE YEARS THEY HAD TWO CALLS AND NEITHER ONE OF THEM WAS A CRIME. ONE WAS A DISPUTE ABOUT WHO WAS RENTING A U-HAUL AND WE DON'T RENT YOU HALLS BY THE WAY. AND ONE OF THEM WAS SOMEBODY TRIED TO BREAK INTO THEIR UNIT BECAUSE THEY HADN'T PAID THEIR RENT. AND SO THE COMPANY LOCKED IT UP. SO FORTUNATELY WE HAVEN'T HAD THOSE KINDS OF THINGS HAPPEN. BUT IF THEY DO WE HAVE A SYSTEM TO MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THANK YOU. VICE MAYOR THANK YOU MISS CALLAWAY. I'D JUST LIKE TO VERIFY THAT OUR CODE CURRENTLY CALLS FOR 40 FEET. AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE LOOKING FOR A VARIANCE OF FIFTY EIGHT POINT FOUR. AM I CORRECT. THAT IS CORRECT VICE MAYOR. THANK YOU. OKAY. I'D LIKE TO STATE RIGHT OFF THE BAT THAT I AM A STRONG PROPONENT OF REDEVELOPMENT BUT I ALSO AM A STRONG PROPONENT OF THE RIGHT REDEVELOPMENT IN 
          [05:30:08]
THE RIGHT SPOT. AND AS I THINK YOU PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE STRUGGLED WITH THIS. 
          SO IN DOING MY DUE DILIGENCE I HAVE BEEN OUT TO THE PROPERTY PROBABLY FOUR OR FIVE TIMES I'VE SAT ON ANY SIDE OF THE STREET AND JUST STARED. BASICALLY I'VE DRIVEN BACK AND FORTH IN MY MIND THIS COMMERCIAL CORNER IS VITAL IN THAT WE'VE ALL HEARD TIME AND TIME AND TIME AGAIN HOW MUCH TRAFFIC THERE IS UNCOMMERCIAL. THERE'S SO MUCH TRAFFIC SO WE HAVE TONS OF TRAFFIC HITTING THAT STREET GOING EAST AND WEST AND THEN OF COURSE WE HAVE ROCK ISLAND GOING NORTH AND SOUTH. SO TO ME I'M A VISUAL PERSON. THE VISUAL IS JUST STRESSING ME IN HEARING THAT YOU REDUCE THIS BY A HUNDRED AND FIFTY UNITS. WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST TAKE A FLOOR DOWN BECAUSE THAT WOULD HAVE REDUCED IT A LOT MORE THAN THAT. OK THEN MY MATH OBVIOUSLY IS OFF BECAUSE I WAS TAKING FIVE STORIES AT SEVEN HUNDRED AND FORTY UNITS AND THAT GAVE ME ABOUT ONE HUNDRED AND 48 PER FLOOR. WELL REMEMBER THE FIRST FLOOR HAS MUCH LESS BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE LOADING IS. OK SO THAT'S WHERE MY MATH WAS OFF. OK. AND VICE MAYOR IF I COULD ADD SOMETHING. IF WE ASSUME THAT THE PROPERTY WOULD REMAIN VACANT THEN THERE WON'T BE ANY TRAFFIC BUT IF WE ASSUME THAT THERE'S NO LAND USE COMMERCIAL AND ZONED M WHEN SOMETHING'S GOING TO BE THERE. AND SO YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT WHAT TRAFFIC IS GENERATED BY THIS VERSUS WHAT TRAFFIC IS GENERATED BY WHAT ELSE IT COULD BE. SO PREVIOUS ON YOUR PREVIOUS ITEM THEY SHOWED YOU A COMPARISON OF RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL. AND SO YOU SAID OK THAT RESIDENTIAL IS LESS. I SEE THAT. BUT IF THE PROPERTY REMAINED VACANT THERE WOULDN'T BE ANY TRAFFIC. SO I THINK WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS KNOWING THAT IT'S LANDS USED AND ZONED FOR COMMERCIAL USE AND COMMERCIAL IS THE HIGHEST TRAFFIC GENERATOR HIGHER THAN INDUSTRIAL HIGHER THAN OFFICE HIGHER THAN RESIDENTIAL IF TRAFFIC IS THE CONCERN. THIS IS THE BEST USE FOR THIS PROPERTY BECAUSE IT IS THE LOWEST TRAFFIC GENERATOR OF ANY COMMERCIAL USE THERE IS. SO I KNOW THAT'S THAT DOESN'T SQUARE WITH I'M LOOKING AT IT. 
          THERE'S NO TRAFFIC THERE NOW BUT IT'S PLATEAUED AT THE ZONE IT'S LAND USED SOMEBODY COULD COME IN AND BUILD A USE THAT WOULD SIT THERE AND WOULD HAVE A LOT MORE TRAFFIC THAN THIS. OKAY. AND SO WE'RE SAYING IN DOING MY DUE DILIGENCE. RIGHT. 
          I'M SORRY FOR INTERRUPTING. NO THAT'S OK. THAT'S RIGHT. I HAVE DRIVEN AROUND A LOT AND NOT ONLY IN MY CITY BUT IN OTHERS JUST TO GET THE VISUALS OF THE HIGH THE LOW THE IN-BETWEEN. AND I HAVE GONE SEVERAL TIMES TO LOOK AT THE PROPERTY ON MCNABB WHICH IS FOUR STORIES NOT IN OUR CITY. IS THIS MONSTER. I MEAN TO ME IT'S JUST SO I HAD TO TAKE THAT OUT OF CONTEXT AS WELL BECAUSE IT'S ALL COMMERCIAL THERE. IT'S ALL A COMMERCIAL PROPERTY. SO NOT QUITE THE SAME. SO I GO BACK TO WHAT WE HAVE IN FRONT OF US AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU I HAVE STRUGGLED WITH IT. I. I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH WITH THE VISUAL. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL BUILDING. THERE'S NO DOUBT BUT I'M I'M STRUGGLING. SO THANK YOU MEASURE BOLTON. MR. MEALY YES. REGARDLESS OF WHAT COULD GO OR OR SHOULD GO THERE. IF IF IF A PLAZA COMES THERE AND IT'S FIVE IF IT'S FIVE STORIES I WOULD SAY NO TO IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU OR WHO YOUR DEVELOPERS ARE OR THAT SORT OF STUFF. I'M NOT ENTIRELY AGAINST STORAGE FACILITIES. I USE A STORAGE FACILITY OUT EAST IS JUST WHERE THE BUILDING IS. IT'S IT'S IT'S IS JUST IN THE WRONG PLACE AND IT'S TOO TALL. AND YOU'VE HEARD OUR RESIDENTS OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN COME TO YOU AND ASK THAT YOU PLEASE AT LEAST THE VERY LEAST REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF UNITS THERE AND THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING AND YOU HAVE TRIED BUT YOU'VE NOT TRIED HARD ENOUGH. THE BUILDING IS TOO TALL. IT IS JUST TOO TALL. CAN WE 
          [05:35:10]
GO BACK TO THE SLIDE WHERE IT SHOWED THE AMOUNT OF VISITORS THAT GOES THERE PER MONTH OR PER YEAR. THAT WAS ON THEIR STAFFS AND IN AND IN THE MEANTIME MR. MERELY HOW MANY UNITS DOES DOES THESE FIVE STORIES YIELD. SO WITH ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT THAT WE HAD WE WERE LOOKING AT BETWEEN SEVEN HUNDRED AND FORTY AND EIGHT HUNDRED AND FORTY. AND THE REASON THERE'S A RANGE THERE IS YOU'RE GOING TO LOOK FOR A MIX OF THOSE VARIOUS SIZES THE FIVE 748 AND 840. 
          SO IF I ADD THOSE TWO NUMBERS TOGETHER I GET 15 18 DIVIDED BY TWO DIVIDED BY TWO. 
          THEY ARE FIFTEEN EIGHTY DIVIDED BY TWO. THAT'S SEVEN NINETY SO I'LL TAKE SEVEN NINETY IS MY NUMBER. SO HOW SO. ACCORDING TO THESE SELF STORAGE DEMAND STUDY THIRTY ONE PERCENT OF THE RENTERS VISIT THEIR UNIT ONCE PER MONTH. SO THEN I TAKE THIRTY ONE PERCENT OF THE SEVEN HUNDRED AND NINETEEN. THAT'S TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY FOUR OR TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY FIVE. PEOPLE ARE GOING THERE EVERY MONTH. I'M NOT SURE AND AT THE VERY LEAST IF YOU'RE SAYING IF THE NUMBER OF THE NUMBER OF UNITS. BUT LET ME EXPLAIN. YEAH. NUMBER TWO YOU CHECKED 790. THIRTY ONE PERCENT OF 780. YES. SO THAT'S TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY FIVE PEOPLE GOING THERE TO VISIT THEIR STORAGE FACILITY EVERY EVERY MONTH AND THEN YOU HAVE ANOTHER FORTY FOUR PERCENT OF LONG TERM RENTERS VISITING THEIR FACILITY AT LEAST SIX TIMES PER YEAR. SO THE SAME SEVEN HUNDRED AND NINETY UNITS IF THESE IF ALL THESE PEOPLE GO SIX TIMES EVERY YEAR THAT THAT NOW IS 15 80 DIVIDED BY 12. THAT'S ANOTHER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE PEOPLE AND I ADD BOTH NUMBERS THAT'S AT LEAST THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY SIX CUSTOMERS GOING TO THEIR STORAGE FACILITY NOW THAT'S JUST ASSUMING YOU ARE TO CAPACITY. WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE PASSING THE BUILDING. OH THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL BUILDING WHAT IS IT. STOP. GO IN THERE. WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN ARE RENTING THE STORAGE FACILITY GOES THERE. OH I LIKE THE PRICE SIGNS UP. OH I DON'T LIKE THE PRICE LEAVES THEN COMES BACK BECAUSE THEY MADE A DECISION. YOU HAVE TO CALCULATE ALL OF THESE FACTORS AND NOW YOU HAVE A BARRAGE OF OF PEOPLE GOING IN AND OUT OF YOUR BUILDING TRAFFIC IS IS IS NOT MY MAJOR CONCERN. RESIDENTS HAVE ASKED YOU ABOUT TRAFFIC AND HOW IT'S IT'S GOING TO IMPACT THE AREA. THAT'S MY CONCERN BUT NOT MY MAJOR CONCERN. MY CONCERN IS THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING THE LOCATION THE TYPE OF USE THAT THAT IS THERE. THE RESIDENTS IN THAT AREA WANT SOMETHING THAT THEY CAN WALK TO PERHAPS AT YOUR LAST MEETING. I TALKED ABOUT YOU KNOW THIS BOX. YOU KNOW THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THEY COULD WALK TO FROM CENTRAL PARK OR THE GATE OR BAILEY SQUARE OR WHEREVER THEY LIVE IN THAT AREA THE WOODLANDS BUT TO HAVE A STORAGE FACILITY THAT'S JUST A MONSTER OF A BUILDING ON THAT CORNER IS IS IS NOT IS NOT PLAYING RIGHT AND THAT IS NOT FAIR TO TO OUR RESIDENTS TO HAVE BOUGHT INTO KNOWING THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO APPROVE ANY BUILDING THAT HEIGHT. BUT THEN TO GIVE YOU A VARIANCE TO SAY THAT YOU ARE GOING TO WE'RE GOING TO ACCEPT THIS IS GOING AGAINST THE RESIDENTS WILL. AND AND THIS IS THIS IS WHERE I APPEAL TO MY COLLEAGUES. I'VE LISTENED TO YOUR RESIDENTS I'VE LISTENED TO THE RESIDENTS IN YOUR DISTRICTS AND I'VE VOTED ACCORDINGLY. AND THE RESIDENTS IN MY DISTRICT DOES NOT LIKE THIS. THERE ARE 
          [05:40:05]
RESIDENTS THAT FROM OTHER DISTRICTS WHO HAVE SAID THAT THEY DON'T LIKE THIS THAT THIS FACILITY THEY ARE RESIDENTS FROM OTHER CITIES THAT SAY THAT THEY DON'T LIKE THIS FACILITY. THERE IS A SIMILAR FACILITY WITH THE SAME TYPE OF SETBACKS FOR THE SAME TYPE OF TREES AND FRONT AND LANDSCAPING IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING RIGHT ON CAMERA RIGHT ON SUNRISE BOULEVARD HEADING TO THE TURNPIKE. IT LOOKS BIG AND BROAD AND TALL LIKE A HOTEL JUST LIKE YOUR BUILDING. AND LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING. I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING BEHIND THAT BUILDING. IT IS IT IS IT IS JUST A MONSTER AND IT AND IT DOES IT IT IT JUST DISTRACTS PEOPLE WHEN THEY ARE DRIVING. WHAT IS THAT DRIVING WITH MY WIFE SHE IS LIKE WHAT IS THAT ALWAYS A STORAGE FACILITY. OH MY GOD IS THIS WHAT'S GOING TO GO ON TAMARA AS WELL. YEAH BUT IT'S GOING TO BE TALLER. IT IT IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. THE RESIDENTS DO NOT WANT IT. 
          THEY'VE ASKED OVER AND OVER THAT THEY DON'T WANT IT. AND I'M HAPPY APPEALING TO THE CITY COMMISSION TO NOT LET THIS GO THROUGH. THEY DO NOT WANT THIS BUILDING AND WE MUST STAND WITH THE RESIDENTS OF TAMARACK IS NOT ABOUT MARLIN BOLT AND IT'S NOT ABOUT DISTRICT 1. IT'S ABOUT EVERYBODY AND THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE. AND IT DISTURBS EVERYONE'S QUALITY OF LIFE THANK YOU SAYING THAT NO OTHER LIGHT IS LIT. I WILL TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK. BELIEVE IT OR NOT COMMISSIONER BOLTON I'M NOT SAYING THIS TO BE ANTAGONISTIC BUT I HAVE HEARD FROM RESIDENTS IN DISTRICT TWO AND DISTRICT 1 AND WITH THE CHANGES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE THEY ARE NOT AS AGAINST IT AS I BELIEVE OH THE ARROGANCE THAT THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE AND THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE NOT. THEY BELIEVE THAT IT HAS TAKEN A LOT OF WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN VERY CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY THE TRAFFIC THE IMPACTS ON THE COMMUNITY THE AESTHETICS OF IT. THEY FEEL THAT THERE HAS BEEN THAT TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION AND THE CHANGES HAVE BEEN GOOD. AS A PERSON WHO DRIVES THAT CORNER CONSTANTLY WHILE TRAFFIC MAY NOT BE A CONCERN FOR OTHERS ON THIS COMMISSION THAT IS A MAJOR ONE FOR MYSELF AND MANY OF MY RESIDENTS WHO ARE TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE COMMUNITY IN THE MORNING TO GET TO GO EAST. SO I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THIS. WE ARE NOT IN A TYPICAL SITUATION IN MY OPINION. THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL LAND USE SITUATION ZONING SITUATION. WE HAVE A VERY ODD PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT IS INCOME HAS I GUESS ENCUMBERED AS THE WORD WITH PINO AND THE RESTRICTIONS WE HAVE ON THAT. BUT WHAT THEY PUT ON US. WE HAVE IT TIED INTO A SETTLEMENT. WE HAVE IT NOT BEING JUST A TYPICAL SITE PLAN USAGE I THINK THE APPLICANT HAS MADE AN EXTREME CONCERTED EFFORT TO REDUCE THE SIZE OF THE BUILDING IT HAS GONE DOWN APPROXIMATE SEVENTEEN THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED SQUARE FEET. IT IS NOW HOUR IT IS SMALLER. PERSONALLY I AM NOT A FAN OF THE NEW DESIGN ON THE CORNERS. IF IT WAS UP TO ME I WOULD GIVE IT TO THOSE CORNERS. I THINK THEY'RE UNNECESSARY BUT THAT'S JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION. AS A PERSON WHO GREW UP IN A CITY WHERE WE HAD TALL BUILDINGS NEXT TO SHORT BUILDINGS. THIS IN MY OPINION IS NOT THAT HIGH. THAT IT WOULDN'T BLEND AS YOU DRIVE OR AS YOU WALK OR WHATEVER YOU DO IN THE COMMUNITY. AND I THINK IT'S SET BACK FAR ENOUGH TO NOT BE THAT DISTRACTING AS BEEN CLAIMED FROM THE SIDE OF THE STREET. I AM PLEASED THAT THE LOADING DOCK IS UNDERNEATH THE BUILDING AS A PERSON WHO HAS A STORAGE UNIT WHO ACTUALLY HASN'T VISITED IN OVER A YEAR. I WISH THAT THAT HAD A UNDERGROUND STORAGE UNIT OR ACCESS UNDER VOIDS. MAXINE I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN RECALL OR WHO THIS QUESTION MIGHT GO TO BUT THIS CITY COMMISSION APPROVED A STORAGE UNIT ON MCNABB THAT WAS AT 60 FEET HIGH UNANIMOUSLY IS THAT CORRECT. CORRECT. AND THAT TOO IS WHERE HERE'S A PICTURE OF IT RIGHT THERE. SORRY THAT THAT FACILITY AND THAT TOO IS HAS RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES AROUND IT. CORRECT. IT DOES. YES. AND THERE WAS NO DISCUSSION OR CONCERN ABOUT THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING AT THAT TIME. AH YOU THINK WE DID HAVE SOME DISCUSSION BUT NONETHELESS IT WAS APPROVED. THANK YOU SAM WHAT IS THE IMPACT 
          [05:45:11]
OF ANY DECISION MADE TODAY ON THE SETTLEMENT CONTRACT. IF I MAY RESPOND MATT AMIR. SO THE COMMISSION AS YOU KNOW FROM THE READING OF THE LAND USE AMENDMENT AND READING OF THE REZONING OF THE PROPERTY ADOPTED A RESOLUTION ARE DASH TO TO ZERO 1876 AND THAT WAS ADOPTED BY THE CITY COMMISSION AT THE TIME IN JUNE OF 2013 ATTACHED WITH THE RESOLUTION APPROVED BY THE COMMISSION WAS A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND A PURCHASE CONTRACT AS WELL. THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AS YOU KNOW IS BETWEEN THE CITY OF TAMARACK AND PRESTIGE HOMES AND LISTS SEVERAL LAWSUITS THAT WERE STILL ENGAGED WITH AND STILL ARE PENDING IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS MATTER. THERE ARE SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS THAT WERE IMPOSED UPON THE COMMISSION AND IMPOSED UPON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT. AND I WOULD LIKE TO RETURN TO THE RECORD AS TO BE VERY CLEAR ABOUT THAT. ASIDE FROM ALL OF THE WHEREAS FINDINGS GETTING INTO THE CONCLUSION THE CONCLUSIONS AS FOLLOWS WHEREAS PRESTES HOMES AND THE CITY WISHED TO SETTLE BOTH OF THE ABOVE DESCRIBED CIVIL ACTIONS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH HERE IN THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS NUMBER ONE FOLLOWING THE EXECUTION OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT. PRESS THESE HOMES IN THE CITY WILL FORTHWITH JOINTLY REQUEST THAT THE BROWARD COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS DELETE THE NOTE ON THE SABLE PALM BY PRESTES PLATT WHICH RESTRICTS THE USE OF TRACT H TO A FIRE STATION. IF THE BROWARD COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS REJECTS THE JOINT REQUEST TO DELETE THE PLATT NOTE RESTRICTING SUCH USE OF TRACK H. THIS SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT SHALL BE VOID IN A NO FURTHER FORCE IN EFFECT IN ANY EXECUTED RELEASE STIPULATION FOR DISMISSAL OR SATISFACTION OF JUDGMENT WHICH PURSUANT TO THE PARTY'S AGREEMENT AS STATED BELOW WAS TO HAVE BEEN HELD IN ESCROW BY THE CITY'S COUNCIL WILL WE HAVE NO EFFECT AND EACH WILL BE RETURNED TO THE ENTITY WHO EXECUTED THE DOCUMENT TO THE RECORD AS MR MILIBAND INDICATED THE CITY ALONG WITH PRESTIGE JOINTLY REQUESTED THE RELEASE OF PARCEL H FROM THE COVENANT WITH BROWARD COUNTY. THAT HAS BEEN RELEASED SO THAT PARAGRAPH NO LONGER APPLIES BECAUSE THE RELEASE HAS ALREADY BEEN OBTAINED. NUMBER TWO IF THE VERY COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS APPROVES THE REQUEST TO DELETE THE PLATT NOTE RESTRICTING THE USE OF TRACT H WHICH PARENTHETICALLY IT DID OVER A PERIOD OF TIME. THE PARTIES AGREE TO JOINTLY SELL TRACT H TO A THIRD PARTY FOR A SUM MUTUALLY AGREEABLE TO THE PARTIES AND THE PROCEEDS OF THE SALE WILL BE FOURTH WILL FORTHWITH BE DISTRIBUTED 50/50 BETWEEN CHRISTIE'S HOMES OR ITS ASSIGNS AND THE CITY AS MORE FULLY SET FORTH HEREIN. SO PARAGRAPH TWO OF THE SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT TELLS US THAT IF YOU'VE GOT THE RELEASE FROM BROWARD COUNTY WHICH YOU HAVE YOU'RE OBLIGED TO JOINTLY AND MUTUALLY SELL THIS PROPERTY. NOW PARENTHETICALLY IF YOU WILL AND COINCIDENTALLY WITH THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT THERE WAS A PROPOSAL WHICH WAS WHICH WAS SUBMITTED ALONG WITH THIS RESOLUTION IN THE RESOLUTION FOR A SALE. 
          AND THE SALE DOCUMENT IS BETWEEN THE CITY OF TAMARACK AND ROCK ISLAND STORAGE PARTNERS LLC OF FLORIDA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AND THE PURCHASE PRICE. AS YOU KNOW FROM THE PUBLIC RECORD DISCLOSURE IN YOUR APPROVAL AS A COMMISSION WAS A MILLION 750 HOWEVER THERE WERE CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE PURCHASE CONTRACT. THE CONDITIONS IN THE PURCHASE CONTRACT RELATE PRINCIPALLY TO THE BUYER DILIGENTLY PURSUING APPROVALS AND BUYER AND SELLER AGREE TO ACT IN GOOD FAITH AND TO COOPERATE WITH EACH OTHER IN BUYERS PURSUIT OF APPROVALS AND THOSE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING SUCH AS REZONING AND LAND USE AMENDMENT. WELL THE REZONING HAS ALREADY OCCURRED. THE LANDS AMENDMENT IS ALREADY BEEN APPROVED. B DELEGATION REQUESTS PLATINUM AN AMENDMENT THAT HAS BEEN REQUESTED. THAT'S ALREADY OCCURRED. C COUNTY VACATION PROCESS IF REQUIRED. THAT'S SIMILAR TO THE DELETION OF THE PLATINUM SO THAT THAT DID OCCUR AS WELL. D. LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT THAT HAS ALSO OCCURRED IN THE CITY OF TAMARACK AND E THE LAST ITEM HERE IN THE LIST IS SITE PLAN APPROVAL WHICH IS BEFORE THE COMMISSION TODAY AND EMBEDDED WITHIN THE SITE PLAN. I NO MISS MISS CALLAWAY WILL CONFIRM THIS ON THE PRESENTATION EARLIER IN EVIDENCE. 
          THERE ARE FIVE VARIANCES THAT WERE REQUESTED ALONG WITH THIS ITEM. BOTH THE VARIANCES IN THE SITE PLAN WERE CONSIDERED BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD AND WERE APPROVED. BUT MR. MERELY ON BEHALF OF THE PROSPECTIVE BUYER AGREE TO CALL THEM ALL UP INDEPENDENTLY AT YOUR REQUEST BEFORE THE COMMISSION. SO THEY ARE ALL BEFORE YOU AT THIS TIME SITE PLAN IN THE RESOLUTION AND THE FIVE VARIANCES ONE OF WHICH INCLUDES A HEIGHT VARIANCE AS WELL. FURTHER HERE IN DEFINED INDIVIDUALLY AS APPROVAL AND COLLECTIVELY THE APPROVAL SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED FROM APPROVALS OUR BUILDING PERMITS AND CONSTRUCTION PERMITS. SO AT THIS TIME THERE IS A RESOLUTION APPROVED BY THE COMMISSION. THERE WAS A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY AND PRESTIGE PART OF WHICH HAS BEEN PERFORMED PART OF WHICH HAS YET TO BE 
          [05:50:03]
PERFORMED AND TO THE EXTENT THAT THERE IS A CONNECTION OF SOME SORT. THERE IS A CONNECTION ONLY BY COINCIDENCE THAT THIS PARTICULAR BUYER OF THE PROPERTY CAME FORWARD AT THE TIME THAT THIS RESOLUTION WAS APPROVED. CITY COMMISSION CONSIDERED IT AND APPROVED THAT IN A PUBLIC FORUM. SO BEFORE THE COMMISSION TODAY IS A IS A SITE PLAN. ORDER BY RESOLUTION AND FIVE VARIANCES. YOUR DECISIONS MUST BE MADE BASED UPON COMPETENT SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE ON THE RECORD MATTERS WHICH ARE NOT FOREIGN TO THE RECORD BUT ARE PART OF THE RECORD AND THAT RELATES TO DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE TESTIMONY GIVEN BY THOSE IN THE AUDIENCE TODAY AND OTHERWISE AS WELL AS YOUR INDEPENDENT THOUGHT ABOUT THAT ONCE YOU CONSIDER ALL THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES SO IF THAT I HOPEFULLY WILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTION WITH REGARD TO WHERE WE ARE WITH THE SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT TODAY. THANK YOU SAM. I APPRECIATE YOU SHARING THAT. I ALSO KNOW THAT I WILL JUST PROBABLY AND FINISH MY THOUGHT REGARDING THE OTHER STORAGE UNIT WITHIN MCNAB WHICH IS RIGHT NEXT TO RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY CROSS STREET FROM IT. THERE IS I BELIEVE IT'S ONE OR TWO STORIES HIGHER THAN THIS PARTICULAR PROPERTY IS THAT CORRECT. MAXINE JUST 60 FEET. YES IT IS. YEAH ABOUT A ONE POINT FIVE ONE POINT SIX OR SO. YES. 60 FEET 60 FEET. MCNABB LOCATION IS 60 FEET AND EIGHT INCHES AND WERE 58 FEET. IT'S STILL CONSIDERED A FIVE STOREY EXACT INCIDENT IF I SAY IT THE OTHER ONE IS FIVE STORIES AS WELL BUT IT'S TALLER IT'S GOT THE SAME CONCEPT AS WHAT IS HERE. I UNDERSTAND THAT. AND THAT AGAIN WAS A UNANIMOUS VOTE BY THIS COMMISSION MINUS COMMISSIONER GALEN BECAUSE HE WAS NOT ON THE COMMISSION AT THAT TIME WELL I HAVE MADE MY MY COMMENTS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE BEST OF A SITUATION THAT WE ARE IN. I THINK IT IS AT LEAST TRAFFIC USE. I THINK IT IS THE QUIETEST SAFEST USE AND ENJOYMENT FOR THE COMMUNITIES THAT SURROUND IT. AND I THINK THAT THE HATE WILL NOT BE MEASURABLE SO TO SPEAK. MAYBE A LACK OF A BETTER TERM. AND I UNDERSTAND THAT. COMMISSIONER BOLTON WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK AGAIN AND THE VICE MAYOR WOULD AS WELL. MR. BOLTON I WILL ASK IS THIS ANYTHING NEW TO ADD OR IS THIS REPETITIVE OTHERS ITEMS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY. THANK YOU MADAM MAYOR. I'D LIKE TO ASK YOU A QUESTION OF MS CALLAWAY MS CALLAWAY JUST TO BE CLEAR. WE ARE GOING TO VOTE ON THE VARIANCE TODAY. YES YOU WILL. THE APPLICANT HAS AGREED TO HAVE THIS BODY BE THE FINAL DECISION MAKER ON THE VARIANCE AS WELL AS A SITE PLAN. YES. RIGHT. AND AND THAT IS WHAT I'M I'M ALSO HAVING ISSUES WITH BUILDING HIGH VARIANCE YOU KNOW THE DRILL. MR. MEALY THROUGH THE CHAIR. I WOULD LIKE TO ASK THE CITY CITY ATTORNEY THEN A QUESTION CITY ATTORNEY. 
          I'M SORRY MR. BOLTON HAS A QUESTION. I'M SORRY. FORGIVE ME BIFURCATION MY RIGHT EAR WAS BEING CONSUMED BY THE MANAGER FOR THE FUNNYMAN. NO NO PROBLEM. HE DISTRACTS ME SOMETIMES TOO HAPPENS ON THE PREVIOUS MEETING. THIS WAS BEFORE WE WENT TO THE CLIENT WENT TO BROWARD COUNTY AND GETTING ALL ALL THAT THEY NEEDED TO GET RELEASED. 
          YES. AND SO PERHAPS AT THAT TIME IT WOULD HAVE PRESENTED MORE FOR HURDLE BUT NOW THE COVENANT IS RELEASED. SO IN THEORY ROCK ISLAND STORAGE COULD BRING US SOMETHING LOWER SOMETHING A BUILDING THAT IS TWO STORIES ONE STORY THEY COULD BRING US A STRIP MALL. WE WE DON'T. WE DON'T HAVE TO VOTE ON THIS. IF WE IF WE SAY NO TO THIS WALL WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS. MARY'S BY MATT AMIR. IF THE COMMISSION BASED ON THE CONFINED LEGAL BOX THAT YOU'RE IN TODAY THE BOXER IN THE DAY RELATES TO REALLY THE FOLLOWING. YOU HAVE A SITE PLANNED BEFORE YOU FOR APPROVAL AND FIVE VARIANCES. IF 
          [05:55:02]
YOU DENY BASED UPON COMPETENT AND SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE THE SITE PLAN REQUEST AND YOU DENIED THE APPLICATION BASED UPON THE VARIANCES THEN THIS APPLICANT WITH THEIR APPLICATION FOR THIS PROJECT ESSENTIALLY ENDS AND THE CITY ENDS UP PREPARING AN ORDER DESCRIBING WHAT YOU DID AND HOW YOU DID IT. SEVERAL THINGS CAN HAPPEN ONE OF WHICH IS THAT THE APPLICANT CAN SAY WELL I'M DONE. I'M GOING TO TAKE MY PROJECT ELSEWHERE OR THE APPLICANT THROUGH THEIR COUNCIL CAN SAY MAYBE THERE'S A ROOM THERE'S ROOM FOR RECONSIDERATION OR SOME OTHER OTHER MODIFICATION OF THE PROJECT WHICH IS ALSO THEORETICALLY LEGALLY POSSIBLE ON THEIR OWN. BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY THE END RESULT IS IS THAT IF YOU IF YOU IF YOU APPROVE THE RESOLUTION YOU PROVE THE VARIANCES THEY WILL PULL BUILDING PERMITS TO BUILD THE PROJECT. IF YOU DENY THE APPLICATION FOR SITE PLAN APPROVAL AND FOR THE VARIANCES THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BUILD THE PROJECT AND THEN YOUR SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WHICH IS TANGENTIAL TO THE DISCUSSION TODAY ALTHOUGH NOT THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF DISCUSSION BECAUSE THE BOXER IN IS A BOX THAT YOU'VE THAT THE APPLICANT IS APPLIED FOR DOES SAY THAT YOU HAVE A JOINT RELATIONSHIP WITH PRESS THESE HOMES ESSENTIALLY FOR THE PURPOSES OF MARKETING THIS PROPERTY FOR FUTURE SALE. AND THAT'S A MATTER OF PUBLIC RECORD THAT'S IN THE SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT WHETHER IT BE FOR A USE LIKE THIS OR ANOTHER USE THAT MODIFIES THIS OR SOMETHING OTHER THAN THAT. BUT BEARING IN MIND THE FOLLOWING. THE LAND USE AND THE ZONING ON THIS PROPERTY ARE NOT THE SAME AS IT WAS SIX MONTHS AGO. THAT'S BEEN CHANGED. SO WHATEVER USES ARE LEGALLY ALLOWABLE OR LEGALLY PERMISSIBLE ON THE SITE ARE POTENTIAL USES. AND WE HAVE A GOOD FAITH OBLIGATION IN THE SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT TO JOINTLY MARKET THE PROPERTY IRRESPECTIVE OF THE USE WOULD BE CONSISTENT WITH USE. BUT IRRESPECTIVE OF WHICH ONE COMES IN THE DOOR TO OFFER UP TO BUY IT THEORETICALLY IF WE SAY NO TODAY AND BASED ON THAT THE SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE EVIDENCE. AND SO. AND MR. MEALY SAYS OKAY WE'RE GONNA TAKE OUR PROJECT TO SUNRISE TAKE IT TO SUNRISE PLEASE. ALL THAT GOES AWAY. AND WE CAN THEN MEET OUR OBLIGATION. NOW WOULD BE TO MARKET IT MARKET THE LAND THROUGH THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT THAT IS NOW OUT AND AVAILABLE. WE CAN NOW MARKET IT TO WHOEVER WANTS TO BUY IT. AND RIGHT. SHORT ANSWER YES. YES. CAN I. AND I'M NOT DONE. OK. ONLY THAT. AND AND SO WE ARE NOT WE'RE NOT IN A BOX. WE DON'T HAVE TO HAVE A STORAGE FACILITY. WE DON'T HAVE TO SAY THAT THIS IS THE BEST USE FOR THE SITE. WE DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING WE CAN SAY NO TO THIS PROJECT AND WE CAN MOVE ON TO ANOTHER PROJECT BASED ON WHAT THE CITY ATTORNEY HAS SAID. I'M COMFORTABLE WITH THAT BECAUSE THIS IS A BAD PROJECT. AND YOU KNOW MR. MERELY I THINK I THINK I I THINK THIS COMMISSION GAVE YOU I THINK I GAVE YOU ENOUGH ROPE TO HANG MYSELF NOW TO GIVE US A THIRTY SIX FEET THIRTY SIX TO GIVE US A SHORTER BUILDING SO I WOULD GIVE YOU ENOUGH TIME TO GIVE US A SHORTER BUILDING AND AND AND AND SO YOU'RE STILL ASKING FOR A VARIANCE AND I'M NOT I'M NOT I'M NOT INTERESTED IN THAT. I MEAN AND GIVEN WHAT THE THE CITY ATTORNEY HAS SAID I'M VERY COMFORTABLE WITH WITH SAYING NO TODAY AND I'M INCLINED TO DO THE SAME. AND I HOPE MY COLLEAGUES ARE INCLINED TO DO THE SAME AND THAT THEY'RE COMFORTABLE IN DOING THE SAME. WE'RE NOT BUXTON VICE MAYOR. OH WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE DONE. THAT'S FINE. I'M I'M GOOD. OKAY. THANK YOU. FIRST OF ALL I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE STORAGE FACILITY. IT'S THE HEIGHT THAT I'M HAVING AN ISSUE WITH. AS FAR AS THE 60 FOOT ONE ON MCNABB WHERE THIS ONE IS PROPOSED BUT NOT MOVING. EXACTLY. MCNABB IS STRICTLY COMMERCIAL AND TO END THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THAT PROPERTY AND RESIDENTIAL IS A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY WITH A MEDIAN. THE COMMUNITY IS BEHIND A GATED WALL SO I'M NOT VIEWING IT AS THE SAME BUT IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER. I MEAN IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH 
          [06:00:01]
THE PRICE OF PEACE. WHEN WE WERE GIVEN THE RESOLUTION INITIALLY OF THIS STORAGE UNIT IT SPECIFICALLY SAID STORAGE UNIT DID NOT ASK HOW HIGH IT WAS GOING TO BE PROBABLY BECAUSE WE DIDN'T KNOW AT THAT POINT. IT WAS STRICTLY PROPOSED AT THAT POINT. SO SORRY I LOST MY TRAIN OF THOUGHT THERE FOR A MINUTE BECAUSE I'M READING MY NOTES. I JUST WANT TO BE VERY CLEAR THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STORAGE FACILITY. 
          MY MY PROBLEM IS THE HEIGHT AND I WAS HOPING AS THIS PROCESS WENT ALONG THAT MAYBE WE WOULD HAVE SEEN SOME CHANGE IN THAT. AND I UNDERSTAND YOU TAKING AWAY SOME OF THE ROOF LINES AND ALL THAT BUT IT'S STILL FIVE STORIES. SO THANK YOU. MR. MERELY COMMISSIONER FISHMAN WOULD LIKE SAY SOMETHING WOULD YOU LIKE TO SPEAK BEFORE SHE DOES OR SHALL ALWAYS THROUGH THE CHAIR. I'D LIKE TO ASK THE CITY ATTORNEY UM SAY WE SAY NO TO THIS PROJECT. THEN WE GO BACK TO OUR PARTNER IN THIS ENDEAVOR. 
          THEY DO NOT WISH TO WORK WITH US ON FINDING ANOTHER BUYER. THEN WHAT HAPPENS. 
          LET ME READ THE SECTION AGAIN. SO WE ALL UNDERSTAND WHAT THE LANGUAGE IS IN THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WHICH THIS COMMISSION APPROVED JUST TO MAKE CRYSTAL CLEAR ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE AGREED TO DO. AMONG THE FINDINGS IN THE RESOLUTION TO TRY TO RESOLVE LITIGATION WHICH IS THE PRINCIPAL REASON FOR SETTLING THE MATTER AND THERE ARE SEVERAL PENDING LAWSUITS THAT ARE STILL PENDING THE LANGUAGE IN THE SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT SAYS THE FOLLOWING IF THE BROWARD COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS APPROVES THE REQUEST TO DELETE THE PLATT NOTE RESTRICTING THE USE OF TRACT H THE PARTIES THAT WOULD BE THE CITY AND PRESTIGE AGREE TO JOINTLY SELL TRACT H TO A THIRD PARTY FOR A SUM MUTUALLY AGREEABLE TO THE PARTIES AND THE PROCEEDS OF THE SALE WILL BE FOUGHT AND WILL WILL FORTHWITH BE DISTRIBUTED EVENLY 50/50 BETWEEN PRESTIGE HOMES OR AS THE SIGNS AND THE CITY IS MORE FULLY SET FORTH HEREIN AND THERE'S SOME OTHER CONDITIONS IN THE DOCUMENT. SO THAT'S THE LANGUAGE IN THE SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT. THE CONCEPT OF WHICH IS THAT IT REQUIRES REASONABLE THOUGHT BETWEEN BOTH THE CITY AND PRESTIGE TO MUTUALLY SELL THE PROPERTY. SO COULD THERE BE A SITUATION WHERE THE CITY WANTS TO SELL A PROPERTY FOR A PARTICULAR USER AND PRESTIGE DOES NOT. YES THERE COULD BE THAT SITUATION WHERE THE PARTIES DO NOT AGREE. THE PARTIES HAPPEN TO HAVE AGREED COINCIDENTALLY WITH A PROPOSAL THAT CAME IN AROUND THE SAME TIME AS THE RESOLUTION WAS APPROVED A YEAR AGO JUNE BY COINCIDENCE BUT IN THE FUTURE SHOULD THERE BE A NEED TO IMPLEMENT THAT PROVISION OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT. I CAN'T KNOW THE ANSWER BUT I CAN SAY LEGALLY THAT IF THE PARTIES CAN'T AGREE IT PUTS US AT ODDS WITH EACH OTHER IN A SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT. 
          WHAT DOES THAT MEAN. TYPICALLY WHEN YOU HAVE THOSE SITUATIONS YOU HAVE TO TRY TO RESOLVE THEM AMICABLY AND IN A POSITIVE FASHION WITHOUT GOING TO TRY TO AVOID COSTS AND EXPENSE OR YOU FIND OTHER WAYS TO GET TO THE CONCLUSION WHICH TYPICALLY ENDS UP IN THE COURTHOUSE WHERE PEOPLE WEAR BLACK ROBES AND APPROXIMATELY HOW LONG DID IT TAKE US TO GET TO THIS CURRENT AGREEMENT. WELL WE MET WITH YOU IN THE SHADE. SO IT'S WITH YOU THE SHADE THE SHADE TRANSFER OF THE STILL SEAL. BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY THE END RESULT IS THAT IT WAS A GOOD FAITH EFFORT ON BOTH PARTIES PARTS TO GET TO THE TABLE TO DISCUSS THESE ISSUES REGARDING PUTTING THE LITIGATION TO THE SIDE AND FINDING A WAY TO IMPLEMENT A RESOLUTION WHICH WAS BOTH SATISFACTORY TO PRESTIGE AND TO THE CITY AT THE TIME. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AND IF I MAY I HAVE A COUPLE OF GOING ALONG THE LINES OF SOMETHING THAT WAS SAID BY COMMISSIONER FISHMAN. THIS IS MORE FOR THE CITY WE HAD WHILE I LOOK AT IT A GAS STATION WE HAD A COUPLE OF GAS STATIONS. LOOK AT THIS PROPERTY WE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS PRIOR TO THIS WHERE THOSE BUSINESSES DID NOT WANT TO COME FORTH AND PROCEED WITH THIS PURCHASE CONTRACT WAS THAT CORRECT. WHAT'S THE QUESTION THAT WE HAD A COUPLE OF OTHER BUSINESSES COMMERCIAL USES TRIED TO LOOK AT THIS PROPERTY THE MANAGER BECAUSE THERE WERE OTHERS THAT CAME KNOCKING ON THE DOOR. THAT'S CORRECT. AND THEY DID NOT RESULT IN ANYTHING TO BRING FORTH A SETTLEMENT OR ANYTHING AT THAT TIME BECAUSE THE BUSINESSES DID NOT WANT TO BE AT THAT CORNER. IT WAS NOT A SUITABLE CORNER FOR THEM. MADAM MAYOR FOR MY RESPONSE TO THIS YOU KNOW WHEN WE PROPOSED 
          [06:05:05]
THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WE MARKETED THE PROPERTY TO ANY NUMBER OF COMMERCIAL USERS GAS STATIONS SHOPPING CENTERS STRIP STRIP CENTERS OFFICE AND WE ULTIMATELY ENDED UP WITH THE STORAGE FACILITY THAT YOU ARE CONSIDERING TODAY IN TERMS OF SPECIFICALLY WHILE WHILE WHILE WHILE LOOKED AT THE SITE AND TRIED TO MAKE THE TRIED TO MAKE THE FOOTPRINT THAT THEY NEED TO UTILIZE WITH THEIR STORES WORK AND THEY COULDN'T THEY COULDN'T BECAUSE OF THE POWER LINES THEY COULDN'T BECAUSE OF THE RESTRICTIONS ON THE ON THE SITE RELATED TO THE EASEMENTS AND THEY COULDN'T BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED ACCESS TO THE SITE FROM ROCK ISLAND ROAD. AND JUST JUST TO REMIND THE COMMISSION THERE IS NO ACCESS TO THE SITE OFF COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD. THERE'S ONLY ACCESS TO THE SITE OFF OF ROCK ISLAND ROAD WHICH IS A CHALLENGE FOR A GAS STATION OR ANY NUMBER OF OTHER USES THAT NEED TO HAVE THE INGRESS AND EGRESS INTO INTO THE SITE. 
          THANK YOU. I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS FOR MISS CALLAWAY MR. MEALY. THERE WAS A COMMENT MADE THAT FOR THE REDUCTION IN THE SQUARE FOOTAGE THERE WERE SOME CEILING ADJUSTMENTS MADE WITH INSIDE. BUT YOU MADE IT NARROWER NARROWER AND SHORTER. BOTH. 
          WAS THERE A REQUEST FOR MAKING IT NARROWER OR NEED. YEAH. WE HAVE TO. WE LEARNED THAT WE HAD TO SHUT BACK OFF OF THE FPL EASEMENT FURTHER THAN WE HAD INITIALLY THOUGHT. SO THERE IS NOT AN OPPORTUNITY TO STRETCH OUT UNFORTUNATELY. IF YOU LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN WE CAN'T STRETCH TO THE WEST BECAUSE THAT MOVES US CLOSER TO THE FPL EASEMENT. YOU DON'T WANT US TO STRETCH TO THE NORTH OR THE EAST BECAUSE IT MOVES US CLOSER TO PEOPLE'S HOMES AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE A REASONABLE SET BACK OFF OF COMMERCIAL BOULEVARD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YOU HAVE BEEN VERY PATIENT AND WANTED TO SPEAK. WELL I THINK I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO HEAR WHAT YOU ALL HAD TO SAY FIRST. SO A COUPLE OF THINGS. FIRST I WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE OTHER SELF-STORAGE FACILITIES THAT HAVE COME IN AND HAVE HAD VARIANCES TO SOME OF IS SIMILAR TO OURS SOME OF THEM DIFFERENT. SECOND WHEN WE TALK ABOUT SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE THAT'S SUPPOSED TO COME FROM OUT HERE THE ONLY SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE YOU'VE HEARD FROM OUT HERE TODAY IS FROM HIS CALLAWAY AND ME. SO YOU HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING FROM ANYONE ELSE SAYING THE TRAFFIC NUMBERS ARE WRONG OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT WE PRESENTED WAS NOT CORRECT. SAY THAT. HAVING SAID ALL THAT WE'VE BEEN AT THIS A VERY LONG TIME. WE'D LIKE TO COOK. TO CONCLUDE IT TODAY IF YOU WILL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE WE WILL LOWER THE HEIGHT FROM 58 FEET TO 48 FEET. 
          IT'LL BE FOUR STORIES NOT FIVE. WE WILL LOSE SIGNIFICANT SQUARE FOOTAGE BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. SO IF THAT'S ACCEPTABLE KEEP IN MIND THAT THE HEIGHT IN THE DISTRICT IS 40. WE WOULD BE ASKING FOR ONLY 8 FEET OF RELIEF. YOU SAW THAT THE STORAGE THAT'S GONNA GO UP ON MCNABB IS OVER 60 FEET AND WE WOULD BE AT 48 IF THAT WOULD WORK FOR YOU WILL BITE THE BULLET AND DO IT. THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE BUILDING WOULD STILL LOOK LIKE WHAT WE HAD BY THE WAY MAYOR YOU MENTIONED REMOVING THOSE ROOF ELEMENTS THAT WE DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT IF YOU WANT TO KEEP IN MIND KEEP IN MIND YOU WANT TO TAKE THEM OFF. TAKE THEM OFF. THAT WAS NOT OUR PROPOSAL ANYWAY. I PERSONALLY THOUGHT IT WAS MUCH CLEANER WITHOUT IT. THAT'S JUST MY CONTEMPORARY OPINION ABOUT MORE CONTEMPORARY LUCK AND CLEAN LOOK. SO IT WOULD LOOK LIKE THAT EXCEPT IT WOULD BE 10 FEET SHORTER AND WE'LL MAKE IT WORK. WE CAN REVIEW IT WITH THE STAFF TO MAKE SURE ALL THE PROPORTIONS ARE RIGHT BUT WILL LOSE SIGNIFICANT SQUARE FOOTAGE WE'LL LOSE RENTABLE VALUE. BUT IF THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT WORK WE'RE WILLING TO DO IT IN A MATTER OF COMPROMISE. I'VE HEARD YOU CORRECTLY THAT BY THOSE LITTLE DESIGNS THAT I'M NOT EXACTLY A FAN OF. YOU DO LOSE SOME SQUARE FOOTAGE. SO I'LL ASK THIS COMMISSION AS A MATTER OF COMPROMISE THAT IS BEING PLACED BEFORE US AT THIS TIME. WILL YOU ACCEPT THE AMENDED REQUEST. HAVING AT 48 FEET REMOVING THE CORNER UNITS AND LETTING THEM REGAIN THAT SMALL AREA SPACE I WILL LOSE 48 FEET FOR STORIES NO CORNER DESIGN. SO I WILL AT THIS TIME DO I NEED TO HAVE ANY TYPE OF MOTION OR IS IT BEEN AMENDED HOW PROCEDURALLY IMPROPERLY DO WE NEED TO DO 
          [06:10:05]
THIS. MADAM MAYOR IN COMMISSION THE APPLICANT HAS MADE A VOLUNTARY OFFERING WHICH THERE WHICH THEY ARE PERMITTED TO DO IF THEY CAME INTO THE POPE PODIUM TODAY AND SAID WE WANT TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL FLOOR AND MAKE IT SIX STORIES ALL THE PAPERWORK BEFORE YOU WOULD BE WOULD BE VOIDED BECAUSE IT EXCEEDS THE BASIS IN THE DOCUMENTS. WHAT HE'S NOW OFFERING THROUGH HIS THINK WHAT THE APPLICANT IS OFFERING THROUGH HIS COUNSEL LEGAL COUNSEL IS A REDUCTION IN HEIGHT AND A REDUCTION IN THE OBLIGATIONS THAT OTHERWISE WOULD BE APPLIED BY THE SUM OF THE VARIANCES WHICH COULD BE CONSIDERED BY THE COMMISSION LEGALLY AND APPROPRIATELY TODAY. IF YOU SO CHOSE. IT IS NOT AN INCREASE BUT A DECREASE AND THE LAW DOES ALLOW FOR YOU TO CONSIDER PARTICULARLY IN A SIGHTLINE ORDER AS WELL AS IN THE VARIANCE IS A LESSER INTENSE APPLICATION SO THE COMMISSION COULD CONSIDER IT THAT WAY. THANK YOU. AT THIS TIME MR. BOLTON'S LIGHT IS LIT. IS THERE MISS BLOWING THE WHEN YOU WHEN YOU SAY SOMEBODY IS SEEKING A VARIANCE TO THE CODE THE CODE ALLOWS FOR DEFEAT. THAT IS CORRECT COMMISSIONER. AND SO MR. MEALY IS ASKING FOR 48 FEET. THAT IS ALSO CORRECT. 
          SO THEN WOULD STILL BE VOTING ON A VARIANCE. WOULD STILL BE VOTING ON A TALL BUILDING. SO THE VARIANCE WOULD BE FOR THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING TO BE 48 FEET WHERE 40 FEET IS REQUIRED BY CODE AND SAM WOULD READ THAT INTO THE RECORD. SO. SO AGAIN. 
          AGAIN THE. THE PROBLEM WE I HAVE IS GIVING YOU A VARIANCE FOR THAT THE HEIGHT THAT IS STILL TOO HIGH THE BUILDING IN NORTH LAUDERDALE IS SOMEWHERE AROUND THREE FEET THREE STORIES HIGH AND THAT'S STILL A MONSTER. SO. SO I THAT THAT WOULD STILL BE THE TALLEST BUILDING ON THAT CORNER. IT WOULD STILL BE TALLER THAN SOME VISTA. IT WOULD STILL BE LOOKING DOWN AT THE ROOFS OF THE THE RESIDENCE AND THAT AND THAT IS NOT THAT IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. THE PLAZA ACROSS THE STREET IS ONE STORY AND IT IS IS ALREADY HIGH. SO UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE A VARIANCE OFF THE TABLE I'M REALLY NOT INTERESTED FOR OVER IN THAT FOUR FOR MY DISTRICT. I DON'T THINK OUR COMMISSIONERS SHOULD CONSIDER THAT IT IS STILL TOO TALL. IT WOULD BE A GIANT AND THE BUILDING EVEN ON SUNRISE BOULEVARD. I THINK IT'S THREE OR FOUR FEET THREE OR FOUR STORIES WAY TOO HIGH WAY TOO BIG. THIS IS THIS SHOULD NOT BE A NEGOTIATION. 
          THIS THIS LITERALLY SHOULD BE WHETHER OR NOT WE'RE GOING TO GIVE A VARIANCE SO I DON'T I DON'T THINK THAT THAT SHOULD EVEN BE ASKED OF US TO CONSIDER. ASK US TO CONSIDER 36 INSTEAD OF 48 THAT'S MY ANSWER. IF I COULD HAVE SOMETHING VERY QUICKLY. SOME OF THE OTHER VARIANCES THAT MS CALLAWAY TALKED ABOUT AT THE BEGINNING AS YOU LOWER THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING. SOME OF THOSE VARIANCES BECOME LESS FOR EXAMPLE THE PEDESTRIAN AREA IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING WHEN WE WERE AT 63 FEET. YOU NEEDED 19 FEET WHEN WE LOWERED IT TO 58. YOU ONLY NEEDED SEVENTEEN POINT NINE. WHEN WE LOWER IT TO 48 THE REQUIREMENT IS EVEN LESS. SO WHAT I'M SAYING IS BY REDUCING THE HEIGHT VARIANCE WE'RE ALSO REDUCING SOME OF THE OTHER VARIANCES THAT ARE KEYED TO HEIGHT. AND WE'RE ONLY ASKING FOR EIGHT FEET. I KNOW THE THE ONE ON MCNABB HAS DIFFERENT BUILDINGS AROUND IT BUT WE'RE ONLY ASKING FOR EIGHT FEET HERE. THEY'RE OVER 60 FEET HIGH. SO I'M HOPEFUL THAT YOU TAKE THE OFFER THAT MY CLIENT HAS MADE IN GOOD FAITH. WE'VE YOU KNOW WE'VE CONTINUALLY REDUCED THE HEIGHT OF VICE MAYOR YOU SAID YOU'D HOPED. WE HAVE DONE IT A LITTLE BIT MORE. I JUST DID IT A LITTLE BIT MORE. I HOPE THAT DOES THE JOB. HOW MANY QUESTIONS WILL THEY HAVE TO ANSWER. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I'M VERY I'M VERY TALL MAN MAYOR. I'M FINISHING UP MY MY YEAR. I'M VERY TALL. I'M ALMOST EIGHT FEET HIGH. AND SO YOU'RE GIVING ME AS TALL AS I AM. NO HE'S ASKING FOR AN EXCEPTION OF AS TALL AS YOU ARE ALMOST. HE'S SAYING THAT THERE'S A 10 FEET HE'S SHOT DOWN 10 FEET. RIGHT. SO SO SO I'M I'M ALMOST I'M ALMOST THAT TALL. I'M A I'M A BIG GUY TALLER THAN ME. RIGHT. SO. 
          SO THAT THAT IS TINY COMPARED TO WHAT THE WHAT THE BUILDING WOULD BE. THAT'S TOO 
          [06:15:06]
MUCH IN THE ALTERNATIVE I BELIEVE IT IS THE FACT THAT IT'S DROPPED DOWN A 10 FEET IS NOW ASKING FOR A CONSIDERATION OF EIGHT FEET TALL. AND AT THIS POINT IN TIME WE NEED TO GET THIS MOVED ALONG AND I WILL ASK FOR SAM TO PROPERLY READ INTO THE RECORD WHAT WE WILL BE VOTING ON AND A VOTE FOR YES WE'LL HAVE THE PROJECT MOVED THROUGH AS AMENDED AS SAM WILL SAY OR NOT. I HAVE A QUESTION MAY I INQUIRE. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION THAT YOU'VE ASKED THE QUESTION I HAVE IS IS THAT THE APPLICANT THROUGH COUNCIL ADMITTED OFFERING TO REDUCE THE HEIGHT FROM THE 58 TO 48 FEET IS THAT CORRECT. YES. AND THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE HAVING THE COMMISSION TRAVEL UNDER. IS THAT CORRECT. YES. OK. SO AT THE MOMENT I'M SORRY. NOTHING. OK. THE ANSWER IS IS THAT YOU'RE CONSIDERING TEMPER RESOLUTION NUMBER 113 257. THAT'S ITEM 11 D. WITH REGARD TO THIS PARTICULAR APPLICATION BUT FOR THE RECORD THE REDUCTION THE THE ACTUAL HEIGHT WOULD NOW BE 48 FEET VERSUS IF THE EIGHT FEET WHICH HAS BEEN A PROPOSED OFFERING OF THE APPLICANT THROUGH THEIR COUNCIL WHICH IS ITEM NUMBER SEVEN UNDER SECTION 2 OF THE RESOLUTION THAT WOULD BECOME SORT OF 58 FEET WOULD BE 48 FEET. AND THE OTHER VARIANCES THAT WERE OFFERED BY THE APPLICANT TO BE CONSIDERED BY THE COMMISSION I DON'T HAVE THEM IN FRONT OF ME MAXINE BUT I KNOW ONE OF THEM WAS A HEIGHT RESTRICTION AND I WAS NOT MISTAKEN THE HEIGHT VARIANCE IN PARTICULAR WAS FOR STAY WHERE YOU ARE AND NOBODY GETS HURT 58 DOWN TO ITEM NUMBER SEVEN TIME WITH THE CUT WITH WHAT WAS ITEM NUMBER FIVE I BELIEVE ON THE LIST IT WAS FROM FORTY FEET OF FIFTY EIGHT FEET CORRECT. YES I WOULD SO IF I MAY MATT AMERICAN MISSION JUST TO BE CLEAR THE SLIDE THAT WAS ADMITTED INTO EVIDENCE BY BY MISS CALLAWAY HAD FIVE REQUESTS FOR VARIANCES THE VARIANCE FROM SECTION TEN DASH TWO POINT THREE SUBSECTION C THE CODE OF AUDIENCES TO ALLOW FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A BUILDING FIFTY EIGHT POINT FOUR FEET IN HEIGHT WERE A MAXIMUM OF FORTY FEET IS ALLOWED THAT WOULD THAT WOULD THEN CHANGE THE NUMBER FROM FIFTY EIGHT POINT FOUR TO THE LESSER SUM WHICH WOULD BE FORTY EIGHT FEET I'D NUMBER TWO A VARIANCE FROM SECTION TEN DASH TWO POINT THREE SUBSECTION C TO ALLOW FOR A SIDE AND REAR SETBACK OF TWENTY TWENTY FEET WHERE TWENTY FIVE FEET IS REQUIRED BY CODE BETWEEN COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL LAND USES NUMBER THREE A VARIANCE FROM SECTION TEN DASH FOUR POINT FOUR SUBSECTION D THREE C ROMAN ET THREE TO ALLOW FOR A LANDSCAPE BUFFER OF TWENTY FEET AND WIDTH WHERE FIFTY FEET IS REQUIRED BY CODE BETWEEN COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL LAND USES FOR A VARIANCE FROM SECTION TEN POINT TEN DASH FOUR POINT FOUR D FOR C RUMINANT TWO TO ALLOW FOR A PEDESTRIANS ZONE 14 FEET AND WITH WHERE 19 FEET IS REQUIRED BY CODE LAST BUT NOT LEAST A VARIANCE FROM VARIOUS SECTIONS OF SECTION TEN DASH FOUR POINT SEVEN FROM ARCHITECTURAL BUILDINGS AND SITE DESIGN STANDARDS PRESCRIBED FOR DEVELOPMENTS LOCATED IN THE M YOU DASH AND THAT'S MIXED USE NEIGHBORHOODS ZONING DISTRICT AS OUTLINED IN THE CITY TAMARACK LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE SO YOUR MOTION INCLUDES EMBRACING THE RESOLUTION TEMPORARY RESOLUTION NUMBER 13 257 AND THE FIVE VARIANCES BUT BOTH BOTH OF THOSE ITEMS HAVE A REDUCED HEIGHT FROM FIFTY EIGHT FEET TO 48 FEET IN BOTH OF THOSE SETS OF DOCUMENTS AND FOR POINT OF CLARIFICATION THAT ALSO INCLUDES THAT'S 48 FEET MAX AND THE CORNERS CAN BE THEN DESIGNED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE OTHER DRAWINGS THAT WE HAVE HAD IF THAT'S THE CONSENSUS OF THE COMMISSION MAKE THOSE ADJUSTMENTS CAN BE MADE LET'S FIRST GO THROUGH AND CALL ROLL ON WHETHER OR NOT WE VOTE AS AMENDED BEFORE WE WORRY ABOUT FOUR CORNERS IF YOU PLEASE CALL THE ROLL. MY WHAT I'VE SAID IS WE'LL CALL THE ROLL TO SEE IF IT GOES THROUGH AS AMENDED AND THEN WE CAN COME BACK AROUND FOR ANOTHER VOTE ON WHETHER WE GIVE THEM BACK THEIR FOUR CORNERS THAT OUR DESIGN IS LIVE AND LET ME HELP YOU IF THEY CAN AND THAT'S WHY I ASKED ME IF I MAY ASK THE APPLICANT PLEASE LEGAL COUNSEL QUESTIONS SO YOU'RE TRAVELLING MR. MERELY UNDER THE REVISED REQUEST FROM A 58 FOOT HIGH BUILDING TO A 48 FOOT HEIGHT BUILDING EXACTLY RIGHT. THAT'S CORRECT. SO WHEN THEY KEEP THE COMMISSION NEED NOT CONSIDER IT 58 FOOT REQUEST BECAUSE THAT'S NOT UNDER UNDER YOUR APPLICATION. YOU AMEND HER APPLICATION ORALLY. THAT'S CORRECT. 
          AND SO MY CONCERN WAS I REGARDING SITE THE SITE THE VISUAL ASPECT OF IT AND IF IT DOES NOT MATTER BECAUSE THE VISUAL ASPECT WILL RETAIN THAT SOUND DESIGN OF THE BUILDING I'M JUST TRYING TO MAKE THAT CLEAR. I DON'T WANNA HAVE SOMEBODY COME 
          [06:20:03]
BACK AND SAY WELL I THOUGHT THE FOUR CORNERS ARE GONNA LOOK LIKE THIS OR I DIDN'T THINK THE FOUR CORNERS ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE THIS. JUST TRYING TO CONVINCE HER ROTATION. UNDERSTOOD. CAN I ASK A QUESTION. AS I UNDERSTAND IT YOU SAY THE FOUR CORNERS JUST SAYING NOT TAKING THAT BARREL TILE ROOF THING OFF OF EACH CORNER. OKAY. IF MY UNDERSTANDING GIVES YOU BACK SOME SPACE AS WELL TO EVEN OUT TO THE FLOOR. YES. AND WE'LL. AND WE'RE PERFECTLY COMFORTABLE WITH NOT HAVING THAT BARREL TILE ON THERE IF THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT. SO IF WE CAN START AGAIN AND CALL THE ROLL AS IT OBTAINS IF I UNDERSTAND WE NEED TO DO IT IN TWO SEGMENTS AS PERTAINS WILL THIS VOTE GO THROUGH OR NOT. AND THEN DESIGN CHANGE. LET ME REPHRASE MID-MAY MADAM MAYOR. NOW DO NOT BE CONFUSED BEFORE THE COMMISSION AS WE SPEAK IS THE RESOLUTION WHICH IN THE RESOLUTION THE THE HEIGHT BEEN REDUCED AN ITEM IN SECTION 2 7 SUBSECTION 7 THE BUILDING HEIGHT SHALL NOT EXCEED. INSTEAD OF SAYING 58 FEET IT WILL NOW SAY 48 FEET BECAUSE THE APPLICANT HAS AGREED TO REDUCE THE HEIGHT AND IN CONJUNCTION WITH THAT VOTE. ALSO ARE THE FIVE VARIANCES WERE READ INTO THE RECORD AND IN THAT REGARD THE VARIANCE WOULD BE FROM 40 FEET TO 48 FEET AS OPPOSED TO 58 FEET CORRECT. MAXINE. YES. SO THE MOTION WOULD INCLUDE THE RESOLUTION AND THE SUBSUMED VARIANCES WITH THE MODIFICATION AS REQUESTED BY THE APPLICANT'S LEGAL COUNSEL. DOES THAT HELP. I CAN INTERPRET IT TO MEAN THAT BECAUSE WE'RE DROPPING IN 48 FEET THOSE CORNERS ARE AT A DIFFERENT LOCATION. IT DOES NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE THEN. AND THEN IF THEN TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU'RE NOT CLEAR ON THAT YOU CAN ASK THE APPLICANT OR THE STATE HER STAFF OR PROFESSIONALS THAT IS THE WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. WELL WITH THAT I CAN'T I CAN ANSWER THAT FOR YOU BUT MAYBE MR. MILLIGAN AND YOURS TOO GIVE IT A SHOT BUT IT LOOKS LIKE WHAT I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU IS PICTURE THIS IS 48 FEET MUCH 63 BUT YOU SEE WHAT THE CORNER LOOKS LIKE NOW. IF YOU TAKE THE ROOF OFF. OKAY. SO LADIES AND GENTLEMEN THIS IS WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED AT 48 FEET FOR APPROVAL ALONG WITH THE VARIANCES AT THIS TIME SO IT IT IS IT IT IS OBVIOUSLY THE SAME BUILDING JUST WITHOUT A ROOF. MR. MEALY EVERY DAY ONLY. YES. COME ON. THE QUESTION RIGHT NOW. THERE WILL BE NO DISCUSSION PLAY. WE'RE STILL WE'RE STILL GIVING A VARIANCE FROM 40 TO 48 THAT HAS BEEN AND THE. AND THE TALLEST BUILDING BESIDE IT IS 36. IT IS STILL A MONSTER. IT'S TOO LARGE. WE WE STILL DON'T WANT IT. COMMISSIONER BOLTON YOU HAVE EXPRESSED YOUR OPINION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND THAT IS ASIAN. DO YOU HAVE A NEW QUESTION. YET. DO WE HAVE FOR OUR PLANNING DIRECTOR MAXINE. DO WE HAVE THE HEIGHT OF THE BUILDINGS ON THE FOUR O'CLOCK ON THE FOUR SIDES OF THIS EXISTING PROPERTY THAT THE RECORD THAT WE HAVE THAT. JUST CURIOUS. I HAVE A SLIDE I CAN SHARE WITH YOU AT THE HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS WITHIN A MILE. IT'S BEEN A LONG DAY AND HAVEN'T EATEN SO I HAVE SOME NUTS AND FRUIT IF YOU LIKE. WITH JUST ONE CORRECTION THAT I NEED TO MAKE SOME VISTA IS THIRTY. OK. AND THEN WHAT YEAR WAS THE APPROVAL FOR THE STORAGE FACILITY ON MCNAB ROAD. WE DO THAT LAST YEAR I BELIEVE LAST YEAR. I THINK NOW THAT ALL QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED PAT WILL YOU PLEASE CALL THE ROLL COMMISSIONER FISHMAN. YES COMMISSIONER FLACCO. YES. 
          COMMISSIONER GALEN. YES COMMISSIONER BOLTON. NO. MAYOR GOMEZ. YES. TEMPORARY RESOLUTION 1 3 2 5 7 PASSED AS AMENDED AS AMENDED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

NEED NATIVE ALSO VOTE ON THE THERE ARE THE FIVE VARIANCES BECAUSE ONE OF THEM HAS A HIGH PRODUCTION MACHINES TO BE VOTED UPON AS WELL. SO IF YOU WILL BUY SEPARATE MOTION NEED ACTUALLY THE ACCOMMODATIONS TO DO THAT MOTION AS WELL. OKAY THEN WHY DO WE NEED A DO WE NEED THERE ON THE VARIANCES. THE ONES ARE READY TO RECORD MADAM CLERK AND THE ONE THAT WAS CHANGED WAS ITEM NUMBER NUMBER ONE YES NUMBER ONE WHICH REALLY NEEDED MOTION BEFORE THAT AS WELL. OKAY I NEED A
