Let
the
record
reflect
that
all
City
Council
members
and
city
officials,
with
the

and
filling

Is
our
Communications

welcome
Melissa.
Thank

very
much
glad
to

we'll
begin
with
our

followed
by
the

B
Blessed

the
whole
world

A
It's
a
good
thing
that
the
temperature
outside
is
not
really
very
hot
at
the
moment,
all
right,
smokey,
good
job.
So
we'll
begin.
The
proclamation
city
of
Punta,
Gorda
Florida,
where
I
ass
on
August
9th
2019
Smokey
Bear
will
celebrate,
is
75th
birthday.
You
look
really
good
for
75,
which
also
marks
his
wildfire
prevention
campaign
as
Alana
longest-running
public
service
campaign
in
US
history.
Smokey's
message
remember
only
you
can
prevent
forest
fires
is
as
relevant
today
as
it
was
in
1944
as
more
people
are
living
closer
to
natural
areas.
No
retirement
for
smokey.
A
And
whereas
the
city
of
Punta
Gorda
commends
the
Florida's
Forest
Service
for
being
proud,
being
actively
engaged
in,
promoting
and
conducting
prescribed
burns
and
other
wildfire
mitigation
practices
to
reduce
the
size
and
intensity
of
wildfires.
And
whereas
everyone
is
invited
to
come
to
the
Charlotte
County
Sports
Complex
in
Port
Charlotte
on
Saturday
August
3rd
2019
from
2
p.m.
to
5
p.m.
to
help
Smokies

his
75th
birthday
with
food
music
and
a
scavenger
hunt
before
he
throws
out
the
first
pitch
at
the
ball
game.
All
right.
A
No,

A
bittersweet
pleasure
of
being
able
to
recognize
Marian
pace
today,
Marian
three
tyring.
She
served
us
for
over
35
years,
she's
really
been
important
to
the
city
because
she
spent
such
an
advocate
for
continuous
improvement.
This
was
exemplified
with
her
leadership
of
the
Six
Sigma
process
in
2006
in
2007.
She
really
showed
her
leadership
skills
and
really
helped
move
the
city
along
in
the
procurement
process.
G
She's
been
a
leader
in
the
Florida
Association
of
public
procurement
officials
and
her
guidance
of
the
department
has
led
to
numerous
recognitions
by
the
national
institute
of
governmental
purchasing
Award
for
outstanding
agency
accreditation.
If
you
go
into
procurement,
it
is
just
a
wall
of
trophies
that
and
awards
that
have
been
received
because
of
the
efforts
of
Marian
and
her
staff
that
she's
led
so
well.
We're
gonna
miss
her
very
much
as
she
relocates
to
a
place
with
no
building
codes.
G
I
I
I've
worked
with
a
lot
of
people,
including
those
out
in
the
field
and
just
the
trust,
and
that
they
put
into
us,
and
my
fellow
procurement
director
Ross
furry,
forced
me
into
this
position,
but
my
team
I
love,
you
guys,
I
love
all
the
departments.
I
work
for
and
I
really
appreciate
your
support
and
we'll
miss
you,
but
we
will
be
back.

a
special
exception
request
by
Jerry
Wexler
authorized
agent
for
Broadway
shops,
LLC,
applicant
and
property
owner
pursuant
to
chapter
26,
section
16.8
one
about
a
code
to
allow
it
endorse
two
which
facility,
which
is
permitted
by
special
exception
pursuant
to
chapter
26,
article
3,
section
3.8,
F
9.
If
I
were
to
code
for
the
property
address
as
11:33
Bal
Harbor
Boulevard
Punta
Gorda
Florida,
located
in
neighborhood
center
NC
zoning
district
good.
M
Morning
Lisa
hand
and
Zoning
official
and
I
have
been
sworn
I'd
like
to
enter
the
entire
staff
report
into
the
record.
My
reference-
this
is
a
special
exception
request
for
an
indoor
storage
facility
at
11:33,
Bal,
Harbor
Boulevard.
It
is
permitted
by
special
exception
for
the
city
code.
This
is
this
is
for
a
storage.
M
M
They
are
proposing
to
enhance
the
landscape
buffer.
The
landscape
is
required
to
be
maintained
in
perpetuity
and
any
outdoor
lighting.
New
lighting
will
be
required
to
meet
our
code
standards,
pedestrian
vehicular
traffic,
not
hazardous,
since
it
is
a
current
retail
center.
It's
going
to
utilize
existing
parking,
drive,
aisles
and
access
points.
No
new
parking
drive,
aisles
or
access
points.
Our
proposed
findings
finding
number
1.
This
does
repurpose
a
portion
of
an
existing
unused
building.
It
also
provides
convenient
storage
to
the
neighborhood
finding
number
two.
M
M
Staff
recommends
approval
of
the
request
with
the
following
conditions:
that,
of
course,
the
expansion
of
the
loading
dock
ramp
requires
a
permit
prior
to
construction.
The
landscape
buffer
requires
staff
approval
prior
to
installation
and
must
be
maintained
in
perpetuity,
and
any
exterior
lighting
proposed
must
meet
the
land
development
regulations
for
intensity
and
design.
M
These
are
the
requirements.
These
are
the
full
conditions
for
special
exception,
and
then
we
did
take
some
pictures
of
existing
lighting
that
is
coming
into
the
drive
aisle
at
the
rear.
There's
one
pole
light
there,
and
that
is
the
only
wall
pack
that
is
on
the
rear
of
it.
The
other
ones
are
like
porch
lights
that
are
out
there.
A
D
A
A
Don't
know
if
you
want
to
do
it
now
or
after
the
public
hearing
it.
So
the
pickle
plaque,
since
this
is
the
complex
lighting
that
I'm
presuming
it's
dark
sky
compliant
if
the
light
doesn't
travel
much
past
the
actual
pickle
Plex
itself.
So
it
doesn't.
The
light
doesn't
interfere
with
the
observatory
out
at
Florida,
southwestern,
and
so
as
I
was
thinking
about
this
and
hearing
residents,
comment
that
live
in
the
the
condominiums
near
this.
If
there
was
lighting
that
was
like
this.
That
would
really
just
like
the
area,
but
the
light
wouldn't
travel
right.
M
And
we
can
require
full
cut
off
fixtures
as
well.
We
have
foot-candle
standards
that
it
can't
exceed
so
many
foot
candles
at
the
property
line
so
the
but
week
you
can
make
any
conditions
that
you
want.
They
haven't
proposed
any
exterior
lighting
yet,
but
if
they
do,
that
can
be
some
of
the
conditions.
Okay,.
N
Good
morning,
I'm
Jerry
Waxler,
with
Macquarie
law,
firm,
representing
Broadway
shops,
LLC
I,
submit
a
copy
I've
already
submitted
a
copy
of
this
PowerPoint
to
the
clerk
I'd
like
to
submit
it
into
the
record
I'm
an
attorney
who's
practiced,
land
use
and
zoning
law
for
over
28
years.
Every
land
developing
regulations
for
local
governments,
I've
been
a
presenter
on
comprehensive
planning
and
zoning
matters
and
continuing
education
courses
presented
to
attorneys
engineers
and
planners
and
I
have
been
retained
as
an
expert
in
land
use
and
zoning
and
civil
litigation
matters.
N
N
The
largest
play
space
at
the
plazas
East
End-
you
can
see
that
in
this
picture
was
intended
to
house
a
grocery
store
and
for
a
while
it
did
a
Food
Lion
store
operated
in
this
space.
For
a
few
years,
it
went
out
of
business
shortly
after
media
reports
of
their
unsanitary
handling
of
meat
and
seafood
throughout
their
chain.
That
was
pretty
much
the
demise
of
every
Food
Lion
store.
N
The
easternmost
space
is
more
than
twice
as
deep
as
the
remainder
of
the
plaza
and
again,
you
can
see
that
on
the
picture,
that's
up
on
the
screen
that
that
last
unit
extends
almost
twice
as
far
back
as
anything
else
in
the
plaza
that
was
needed
when
it
was
a
grocery
store
for
delivery
space
and
for
storage
space.
The
current
tenants
utilized
only
the
front
portion
of
the
shopping
plaza
that
which
faces
the
parking
lot.
The
rear
continues
to
remain
vacant.
Broadway
shop
LLC
proposes
to
convert
the
rear
space
to
indoor
storage.
N
N
This
is
existing.
You
can
see
the
line
right
here,
so
this
is
the
existing
loading
dock.
They
will
be
adding
on
this
space,
adding
two
overhead
doors
and
then
adding
a
ramp
so
that
vehicles
can
come
up
enter
through
the
overhead
doors
and
then
unload
in
the
enclosed
parking
space.
It's
about
18
feet
adjacent
to
in
parallel.
The
building,
that's
about
an
18
feet.
Extension
is
what
we're
talking
about.
N
This
will
enable
the
clients
to
drive
up
the
ramp,
open
the
overhead
doors
drive
into
the
fully
enclosed
offloading
area
to
deliver
or
pick
up,
storage
ID
that
deliver
them
to
storage
or
pick
them
up
from
storage.
Absolutely
no
outdoor
storage
is
proposed,
with
this
special
exception
other
than
the
extension
of
the
enclosed
loading
platform
and
the
installation
of
ramps
into
the
loading
area.
No
exterior
changes
to
the
site
are
proposed
from
the
front
along
Aki
ester
Drive
and
from
the
side
along
Bal,
Harbor
Drive.
N
The
site
will
look
exactly
the
same
as
it
would
look.
If
you
drove
down
there
today,
the
existing
landscape
buffer
along
the
site,
south
boundary
will
be
enhanced
to
mitigate
the
visual
impact
of
the
expanded
loading
area
to
the
condominiums
that
are
behind
the
property.
There
are
four
criteria
that
this
board
must
consider
when
evaluating
and
request
for
a
special
exception.
First,
that
the
proposed
use
will
not
adversely
affect
the
use
of
neighboring
properties.
N
The
proposed
use
does
not
require
any
alterations
to
the
property
that
will
be
visible
from
adjacent
roadways
or
from
properties
to
the
north,
east
or
west.
The
extended
loading
area
is
entirely
enclosed.
Loading
and
unloading
will
be
done
inside
and
will
not
be
visible
from
the
surrounding
properties.
The
new
ramps
are
visible
only
from
certain
of
the
adjacent
condos.
The
visual
impact
itself
will
be
mitigated
by
the
expansion
and
extension
of
the
existing
landscape
buffer.
The
proposed
use
is
entirely
internal
to
the
building.
No
storage
or
storage
units
will
be
visible
from
any
adjacent
property.
N
The
proposed
use
will
not
be
visible
from
adjacent
roadways.
The
storage
facility
will
utilize
existing
driveways
and
entrances.
There's
no
new
construction,
nothing
new
that
is
required
from
the
surrounding
roadway
system.
The
average
daily
trips
generated
by
the
Mini
Storage
is
a
hundred
and
seventy
percent
less
than
the
traffic
that
would
be
generated
if
the
space
was
built
out
with
retail
uses
a
hundred
and
seventy
percent
less
traffic
from
this
use
than
if
it
was
put
to
retail
use.
N
Second,
the
use
will
comply
with
applicable
district
regulations
and
applicable
provisions
of
the
adopted,
comprehensive
plan
and
downtown
plans.
As
you
heard,
all
construction
will
require
review
and
approval
by
the
development
review
committee
and
will
require
issuance
of
building
permits.
The
expanded
loading
docks
and
the
ramps
will
be
set
back,
the
40-foot
it's
very
difficult
to
see
in
here,
but
we
actually
have
the
numbers
you've
got.
This
is
a
60-foot
to
this
point
and
it
is
40-foot
from
this
point
so
to
sit
back
forty
foot
from
the
property
line.
N
That
is
double
the
20-foot
that
is
required
by
the
neighborhood
commercial
zoning
district.
The
height
of
the
extended
loading
ramp
is
lower
than
the
existing
roofline
of
the
main
building.
So
we're
not
going
up
any
more.
In
height,
the
zoning
official
determined
that
the
proposed
use
is
appropriate
within
the
neighborhood
commercial
zoning
district
neighborhood
center
zoning
district.
It
is
consistent
with
the
Comprehensive
Plan,
as
detailed
in
the
application,
particularly
the
pauses
in
the
plan
which
encourage
infill
development
and
the
use
of
a
special
exception
process
to
ensure
compatibility
with
existing
residential
uses.
N
The
third
criteria
is
that
the
location,
size
and
height
of
building
structures,
walls
and
fences
and
the
nature
and
extent
of
screening,
buffering
and
landscaping
shall
be
such
that
the
use
will
not
hinder
or
discourage
the
appropriate
development
in
use
of
adjacent
and
nearby
land
and/or
buildings.
This
is
a
long
established
commercial
plaza.
The
use
again
will
not
be
visible
from
the
adjacent
streets
or
from
any
neighbors,
except
perhaps
those
living
in
the
condos
that
overlook
the
site.
N
These
condos
were
built
after
the
shopping
plaza,
so
any
condo
owners
with
views
of
the
shopping
plaza
or
just
their
units,
knowing
that
they
overlooked
a
commercial
loading
zone.
You
can
see
here
the
location
of
the
condo
buildings
which
is
right
located
here,
and
then
this
is
the
location
of
where
the
loading
zone
will
be
so
there's
not
direct
sight
that
have
to
be
wanting
to
look
at
it
for
those
who
live
here.
You
may
have
a
view
that
said,
even
though
they
built
knowing
that
they
were
behind
a
loading
dock.
N
My
client
understands
that
there
that
they
are
our
neighbors
and
that
they
are
concerned
about
how
the
proposed
use
will
affect
them.
Broadway's
shops
has
incorporated
multiple
methods
to
address
their
concerns.
The
landscape
buffers
on
the
property
line
adjacent
the
condos
will
be
enhanced
by
the
installation
of
92
Alphonse
Carr
bamboo
plants.
So
you
can
see
again.
This
is
the
proposed
building.
Starting
from
this
point
we're
having
lower
vegetation
here.
There
are
trees
in
front
of
it
and
then,
from
this
point
this
way
we'll
be
installing
the
Alphonse
Carr
bamboo
plants.
N
Alphonse
Carr
is
a
clumping
bamboo,
which
the
University
of
Florida
Institute
of
Food
and
Agricultural
Sciences
or
IFAs
and
I
gave
you.
The
the
site
that
I
took
it
from
says
quote
is
possibly
the
best
clumping
bamboo
for
a
tall
hedge
or
barrier
planting.
It
will
be
four
to
six
feet
at
the
time
of
planting
and
again,
according
to
ifs,
will
be
twenty
to
thirty
five
foot
at
time
of
maturity.
With
a
spread
of
ten
feet,
I
submit
the
IFAs
fact
sheet
on
our
funds:
bamboo
Alphonse
Carr
bamboo
into
the
record.
N
The
proposed
indoor
storage
juice
requires
only
minimal
alterations
to
the
existing
buildings,
all
of
which
are
a
size
and
scope
that
the
overall
visual
impact
of
the
building
is
essentially
unchanged.
The
enclosed
loading
dock
remains
enclosed,
the
extended
loading
docks,
roof
remains
below
the
roofline
of
the
remainder
of
the
building.
The
applicant
is
also
proposing
three
additional
conditions
of
approval.
Over
and
above
those
that
were
proposed
by
staff,
the
first
is
limiting
the
hours
of
operation
to
6
a.m.
from
6:00
a.m.
to
10:00
p.m.
for
the
loading
area
we
originally
proposed
24
hours
a
day.
N
We
heard
the
concerns
that
were
expressed
at
the
Planning
Commission
hearing.
We
believe
that
this
is
realistic.
We
don't
expect
there's
going
to
be
tremendous
traffic
in
the
evenings,
but
people
do
sometimes
travel
in
from
out
of
town
and
they
want
to
get
to.
They
may
arrive,
you
know
after
normal
business
hours
and
want
to
be
able
to
get
things
out
of
storage,
to
bring
back
to
their
homes
or
put
them
there
early
before
they
get
on
the
road
to
head
back
to
wherever
their
Snowbird
their
home
destination
is.
N
The
second
proposed
condition
is
prohibiting
any
outdoor
storage
on
the
adjacent
grassy
area
directly
east
to
the
building.
That
is
the
area
located
right
here.
I
did
see
some
of
the
comments
that
were
posted
on
next
door.
I
was,
and
looked
at,
the
emails
that
were
sent
to
all
of
you
and
I
know
that
there
was
a
concern
about
there's
a
park
across
the
way.
What
will
they
be
looking
at?
There
was
a
concern
from
the
the
condominium
residents
who
now
overlook
that
grassy
area.
What
will
they
be
looking
at?
It
has
never
been.
N
It
was
misinformation
that
was
spread
if
there
has
never
been
any
intent
to
have
any
sort
of
an
outdoor
storage
area.
That
area
will
not
be
used
for
storage
of
any
kind,
and
we
would
accept
that
as
a
condition
of
approval
and
finally
requiring
that
the
lighting
placed
on
the
rear
of
the
existing
building
operate
with
most
motion
sensors.
N
We
would
also
be
open
to
conditions
that
it
has
to
be
the
type
of
light
that
stays
on-site,
but
in
addition
to
that
and
we'll
have
them
operate
on
motion
sensors
so
that
the
area
is
not
lit
up,
except
in
the
rare
occurrence.
When
someone
comes
in
the
dark
to
realize
the
facility
will
light
up
that
back
at
that
time.
So
those
are
the
conditions
that
we
are
proposing.
N
The
fourth
criteria
is
that
the
proposed
use
will
be
such
that
pedestrian
and
vehicular
traffic
generated
will
not
be
hazardous
or
conflict
with
the
existing
and
anticipated
traffic
in
the
neighborhood
and
on
the
streets
serving
the
site.
The
enclosed
mini
storage
use,
as
I
indicated,
will
generate
a
hundred
and
seventy
percent
less
traffic
than
if
the
space
is
developed
with
retail
uses,
and
that
is
permitted
by
right.
Those
retail
uses
could
develop
tomorrow.
They
wouldn't
come
before
you.
It
wouldn't
be
open
to
any
public
hearing.
N
They
would
simply
go
in
and
and
generate
one
hundred
and
seventy
percent
more
traffic.
We
are
using
existing
entrances,
driveways
and
parking
areas.
Broadway
shops
LLC
gave
a
lot
of
thought
to
the
best
way
to
redevelop
this
grocery
store
location.
It
has
been
vacant
for
a
lot
of
years,
which
doesn't
do
anybody
any
good.
Ultimately,
they
identified
a
solution
that
created
additional
retail
opportunities
along
the
storefront
side,
while
still
creating
a
use
along
the
rear
that
utilized
in
a
much
less
intense
way.
The
existing
delivery
drives
and
loading
docks.
N
I've
read
the
email
sent
to
the
councilmember
and
dutifully
they
were
initially
sent
to
councilman
from
Matthews
and
more
dutifully
forwarded
on
to
all
of
the
councilmembers
and
I
always
check
that
I
received
some
of
them.
Then
I
checked
that
before
any
hearing
as
a
matter
of
course,
the
concerns
that
were
raised
in
those
emails,
visual
impacts,
traffic
impacts,
degrading
the
park
across
the
street
all
seem
to
come
from
a
misunderstanding
of
what
was
being
proposed.
N
This
is
not
a
mini
storage
facility,
with
rows
of
overhead
doors
and
boats
and
trailers
parked
in
between
those
rows
of
storage
facilities,
with
overhead
doors
all
visible
to
the
neighbors
in
the
traveling
public.
There
will
be
no
change
to
the
facades
of
the
building,
except
for
that
18-foot
extension
of
the
enclosed
loading
area
and
the
installation
of
the
ramp
leading
up
to
that
enclosed
building
areas
all
within
an
area
that
has
always
been
designed
for
loading
and
unloading.
That
is
the
rear
of
the
store.
N
In
fact,
and
one
of
the
photos
I
noticed
that
they
were
showing
the
lighting.
You
saw
a
FedEx
truck
back
there.
This
has
always
been
a
loading
and
unloading
area.
It
will
continue
to
be
utilized
area.
There
is
absolutely
no
outside
storage
proposed.
There
is
no
new
commercial
proposed.
The
under
storage
facility
is
going
into
an
existing
building.
Zoned
for
commercial
use.
I
again
read
letters
that
talked
about.
We
don't
need
any
more
commercial.
There
shouldn't
be
any
new
commercial.
This.
L
N
Already
here
it
is
already
zoned
for
commercial,
we're
not
proposing
new
commercial
of
bringing
new
commercial
to
the
area,
we're
simply
proposing
to
utilize
an
existing
commercial
building.
The
proposed
indoor
storage
facility-
yes
yeah,
sorry,
yes,
the
proposed
indoor
storage
facility
will
generate.
N
N
Additionally,
my
client
has
self-imposed
conditions
to
address
the
adjacent
condominium
owners
concerns
installation
of
a
fast
growing
landscape,
buffer,
a
limitation
on
hours
of
use,
motion,
sensors
for
lighting
and,
of
course,
that
ban
on
outdoor
storage,
instead
of
overlooking
a
location
that
was
designed
for
deliveries
by
semi,
sat
semi
tractor-trailers
with
no
limit
on
the
time
for
delivery.
Condo
owners,
if
this
is
approved,
will
instead
overlook
a
thick
bamboo
hedge
obscuring
deliveries
made
predominantly
by
cars
and
pickup
trucks.
N
During
designated
hours,
staff
has
reviewed
the
application
found
that
it
meets
the
procedural
requirements
and
the
criteria
for
approval
and
is
recommending
approval
of
the
special
exception.
The
Planning
Commission
likewise
recommended
approval
with
conditions.
Broadway
shops
has
additionally
demonstrated
how
it
meets
the
criteria
for
approval
broadway
shops.
Llc
accepts
the
conditions
proposed
by
staff
and
endorsed
by
the
Planning
Commission
for
posts,
imposition
of
the
conditions
that
were
handed
out
to
you
and
discussed
during
this
presentation
and
respectfully
requests
approval
of
this
special
exception
I'm
available.
If
you
have
questions.
H
Thank
you,
mrs.
Wexler
I
first
said.
Let
me
just
close
that
I
have
had
communication
with
the
applicant
as
well
as
mrs.
Wexler
I,
attended
the
sure
the
design
studio
meeting
when
they
first
came
to
the
city
about
this
project.
I
also
attended
the
Planning
Commission
hearing,
so
that
I
could
listen
to
what
was
going
on.
H
I've
had
numerous
communications
with
many
of
the
citizens
in
and
around
the
project,
so
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
on
record
I
drove
through
the
Plaza
and
I'm
glad
to
see
that
there
is
no
direct
alignment
behind
the
condos,
so
there's
quite
an
offset
to
where
the
entrance
ramp
will
be
when
it's
put
in,
and
thank
you
for
allowing
the
partial
hours
compared
to
the
24
hours.
That's
is
a
huge
concern,
I've
heard
from
numerous
residents
that
were
near
that
project
that
really
wanted
it
to
be
limited
and
I.
H
In
fact,
I
had
gone
as
far
as
printing
out
usage
hours
from
some
of
the
other
storage
unit
facilities
in
the
area.
So
my
questions
are
I
had
a
lot
of
questions
from
citizens
about
this
project.
Needless
to
say,
with
regard
to
the
ramp,
how
are
you
going
to
control
kids
on
skateboards
and
things
of
that
type
on
the
access
ramp
and
we're
gonna?
Is
there
any
way
that
there
can
be
signage
or
they're.
N
Gonna
have
closed-circuit
cameras
and
you
can
make
that
a
condition.
I
mean
that
that
is
a
concern
of
the
owner
as
well.
There
are
liability
issues
if
you
start
allowing
that
repetitive
use
for
skateboards
and
such
so
we
will
happily
post
signs,
and
certainly
if
there
is
any
indication
that
it's
being
used
for
that
purpose,
they'll
take
additional
steps
to
ensure
that
that
doesn't
occur
as.
H
H
H
A
N
N
A
client,
unfortunately,
is
not
here.
I,
don't
see
a
huge
issue
with
that,
but
I'm
not
certain
that
that
really
addresses
your
concerns.
That
lets.
You
know
if
there
is
somebody
there,
but
the
cameras
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
there's
somebody
there
to
be
able
to
address
it
if
it's
after
after
hours
or
something
along
those
lines
but
yeah.
If
you
want
to
require
the
installation
of
cameras,
sure
it.
O
N
O
H
N
Compliant
or
as
least
indicated,
you
already
have
criteria
that
don't
a
lot
of
that
require
it
to
be,
at
a
certain
delight,
to
be
at
a
certain
property
boundaries.
If
you
want
to
put
something
that
needs
to
be
shaded
or
something
that
would
require
that
the
light
stays
on
premises
that
lighting
is
readily
available,
I
would
not
object
to
them.
K
A
N
A.M.
is
is
important.
People
looking
to
get
on
a
road
may
want
to
come
and
get
materials
right
before
they
leave.
They
tend
to
get
on
the
road
early.
You
need
to
get
in
at
6
a.m.
same
thing
for
those
who
are
keeping
things
here
for
fishing
or
things
like
people,
people
get
up
and
out
early
to
do
some
of
those
activities.
I
think
you
need
to
have
the
ability
to
get
to
the
storage
facility
at
that
time.
That
is
consistent,
I
think
with
what
you
would
find
at
other
facilities.
D
H
They
have
anyway,
yeah
I
did
actually
print
out
the
hours
of
operation
for
four
of
the
other
storage
facilities
in
town
and
comfort,
storage
and
Punta,
Gorda
self
storage,
or
both
6:00
a.m.
to
10:00
p.m.
so
I
think
that's,
realistic
and
and
the
fact
that
those
two
are
not
in
a
residential
neighborhood
is
furthers.
You
know
further
states
I
think
that
those
hours
are
appropriate
for
this
facility.
Anything.
H
A
L
H
O
H
All
those
in
one
second
I
just
noted
that
the
applicants
list
that
she
gave
us
has
the
wrong
hearing
number
on
the
top
of
the
page.
That
needs
to
be
amended
yeah
just
for
consistency
sake,
it
says
SC,
oh
one,
one
should
be
oh,
do
we
need
to
amend
the
motion?
Do
we
need
to
do
anything?
Okay,
just
so
it's
on
the
record.
Okay,
I'm!
So
there's
been.
A
A
Excuse
me
an
extension
of
the
agreement
with
tetra
Tech,
a
Southwest
Florida
regional
rosette,
resiliency
compact,
and
an
application
for
FY
2019
for
the
Charlotte
community
bound
to
the
Charlotte
community
foundation
from
our
Police
Department.
So
those
three
items
are
on
the
consent
agenda.
Anyone
would
like
to
comment
on
consent,
consent,
agenda
items.
Please
come
to
the
podium
and
you
have
three
minutes.
B
A
L
A
Opposed
motion
carries
unanimously.
We
will
now
move
into
our
regular
agenda
items
and
we
have
quite
a
few
here
and
they're
all
related
to
budget.
So
the
first
of
these
is
adopting
a
tentative
levy
of
annual
assessment
for
the
lot
mowing
program
and
the
resolution
for
the
millage
rate
and
award
of
a
specific
authorization
for
the
burn.
Stiles
lock,
widening
an
approval
of
a
contract,
change
order
for
the
water
treatment
plant,
a
presentation
of
the
fair
share
impact
study
and
the
Ponce
de
Leon
Park
utility
upgrade,
and
the
draft
FY
2020
strategic
plan.
A
A
A
J
Morning,
Kristen
Simeone
finance
director,
so
we
brought
to
you
an
update
on
the
lot
mowing
program
based
on
the
comments
from
last
week's
meeting
I'm
using
0-0
turn
based
mowers.
Our
current
contractor
could
increase
the
rate
to
$11
per
block
per
mo
rate,
so
with
that
type
of
cost,
the
proposed
assessment
would
be
two
hundred
and
five
dollars.
A
A
J
E
H
Then
last
year
we
had
a
long
discussion
about
the
fact
that
the
summer
months
required
additional
mows.
That
has
not
happened.
The
grass
and
the
lot
next
door
to
me
is
over
3
feet,
high
and
I'm
very
concerned
with
this
company.
Doing
there
mowing
program
and
I'm
very
concerned
that
for
doing
the
same
service
with
this
for
the
same
amount
of
lots,
they're
gonna
charge
that
much
more
money
too,
with
more
efficient
equipment.
H
J
M
When
we
issue
a
statement
of
work
for
the
contractor
to
begin,
there
was
a
little
miscommunication
between
a
couple
departments
and
it's
been
straightened
out
and
won't
happen
again.
So
there
they
were
about
four
days
late,
starting
their
mow.
We
wanted
them
to
start
June,
1st
or
July
1st.
They
started
July
5th
right
now
we're
starting
our
two
most
per
month
when
they
get
through
at
the
city.
This
time
the
full
cycle
they'll
begin
again
for
their
second
model
will
do
two
mows
a
month
for
July,
August
and
September.
M
So
the
extra
rain
obviously
did
not
help
humid
the
grass
grow,
so
we
are
working
with
them
and
they
are
doing
they're
out.
There
they've
been
out
there
since,
since
July
5th
working
so
they're
working
diligently
to
get
it
under
control
and
by
the
time
they
get
ready.
When
they
get
the
city
finished,
they
have
so
they
have
more
pea,
long
staff
and
more
equipment
on
staff
than
our
previous
contractor.
So
they
are
able
to
normally
do
the
city,
the
entire
city,
not
just
Virgin,
Islands
or
not
just
burn
star
meadows.
A
I
would
like
to
add
invert
star
Isles.
The
grass
is
very
high
and
code
compliance
will
be
very
busy
sighting
people
if,
if
they
weren't
in
the
lot
mowing
program,
you
know
I
know
at
the
cross.
For
me,
I
have
two
lots
that
are
being
used
for
staging
what
for
irma
restoration
in
it?
It
looks
like
a
junkyard
the
way
it's
being
maintained.
It's
really
a
very
pitiful
sight.
My
husband
I
were
talking
about
this
morning.
It's
embarrassing
what
it
looks
like.
M
A
D
H
I
A
I
remember
when
we
did
this,
they
did
the
contract,
because
the
contract
was
the
same
rate
as
the
previous
one.
He
was
lower
than
the
preview
lower
than,
and
that
was
because
they
were
using
the
big
gang
wars.
Yes,
as
host
using
the
zero
turn,
I,
don't
know
what
the
other
vendors
did
and
I
don't
know
how
that
what
the
procurement,
okay.
I
So
basically,
I
went
through
and
I
looked
at
everybody's
submittals
packages
for
the
lowest
three
bidders
and
the
three
lowest
bidders
they
had,
one
zero
turn
or
small,
lawn
mower
on
their
equipment
list,
61
inch
and
under
all
the
rest.
They
were
proposed
to
do
with
tractors
and
with
the
pole
behind
finish
mowers
or
Busch
hogs
or
whatever
they
chose
to
use,
that's
been
how
we've
allowed
them
to
bid.
I
Historically,
we
did
have
one
contractor
that
did
start
mowing
was
a
zero
turns,
and
it
you
know,
produced
a
very
nice
finished
lon,
but
all
three
of
the
lowest
bidders
did
bid
with
tractors
pulling
behind
their
mowers
and
the
eleven
dollars
which
they
proposed
for
to
go
to
all
zero
turns
is
equivalent
to
the
third
lowest
bidders
per
lot
rate
of
eleven
dollars
dollars
per
mo.
What.
I
H
Okay,
I'm
inclined
to
keep
the
contract
at
170
and
let
them
use
their
their
tractor.
Mower
I,
don't
I,
don't
see
this
increase
being
beneficial
to
the
city,
because
I
think
code
enforcement's
going
to
have
700
more
calls
a
month
that
they're
going
to
have
to
be
accountable
for
and
the
time
and
the
paperwork.
That's
involved
is
not
worth
the
difference.
I,
don't
like
it,
but
mm-hmm.
D
The
problem
that
I'm,
having
is
we
hear
from
the
people
who
are
here
that
they're
unhappy
with
the
mowing
surface
for
the
people
who
are
not
here
and
you
know,
I-
didn't
hear
from
a
single
person
who
gets
their
lot
mode,
that
they
would
be
unhappy
with
the
two
hundred
and
five
dollars.
But
I
do
hear
about
unhappy
with
these
gigantic
mr.
eckers
running
around
their
property.
So
yeah
I'm,
torn
I
understand
that
this
could
cause
a
lot
of
people
to
pull
out
of
the
program.
J
J
J
A
O
Just
gonna
offer
a
different
as
I've
said
before.
This
is
a
good
deal
for
the
property
owners
mm-hmm.
However,
the
city
is
going
to
catch-22,
because
if
the
property
owners
drop
out
of
the
program,
there's
not
a
return
on
investment
of
trying
to
code
enforce
it,
because
we're
so
understand
we're
kind
of
stuck
I,
don't
like
the
program.
The
way
it's
it's
run,
but
I,
don't
know
of
an
alternative.
I
think
that
our
obligation
is
primarily
to
the
citizens
of
the
city,
I'm
inclined
to
go
with
the
205
I
psychologically
or
not.
O
If
it's
what
it
takes,
the
mixture
that
we
have,
the
lats,
for
example,
as
you
go
down,
Marion,
which
are
smaller
Lots
done
properly,
they
were
overgrown.
There
was
a
complaint,
it
was
real
it
early
and
actually
Lisa's
response
was,
as
they
were
supposed
to
taken
care
of
today,
and
in
fact
they
were
as
the.
