Description
A
B

C
You
may
notice
that
the
Charlotte
community
foundation
and
the
smokers
Enterprise
Foundation
and
the
Charlotte
County
Economic
Development
Partnership,
have
all
become
major
funders
of
this
event
and
we
are
have
offered
them
the
opportunity
to
be
Co
conveners,
which
means
they
get
a
say
in
things,
and
their
input
has
been
very
valuable
and
they're
terrific
partners
to
work
with.
So
we're
really
excited
to
report
that
it
truly
is
a
community
convened
event
these
with
these
partners.
C
So
why
did
we
do
this?
Just
to
remind
you
and
remind
those
presents,
we're
thrilled
that
the
city
is
doing
the
citywide
master
plan
this
year.
I
think
it's
a
really
smart
thing
to
do.
I
think
it's
even
smarter
that
you're
doing
it
in
three
components,
not
just
the
vision
part.
So
we
first
we
have
the
community
vision
which
will
be
embodied
in
the
charettes
in
early
2019,
but
you've
also
added
an
economic
development
analysis
and
a
review
of
the
land
development
regulations.
C
We
think
that
journey
to
the
futures
contribution
will
be
a
major
public
education
effort.
What
we're
hoping
is
that
people
will
come
away
with
this,
with
lots
of
information
on
best
practices
and
new
ideas
for
small
cities
like
ours,
we're
not
the
only
city
to
go
through
the
issues
that
we
go
through.
We've
done
so
much
in
this
town
since
the
first
master
plan
in
2005.
C
What
we've
done
is
truly
amazing
and
now
it's
time
to
continue
to
engage
the
public
in
visioning
for
the
next
stage
of
our
future,
and
in
order
to
do
that,
we're
hoping
that
people
will
come
away
from
with
this.
From
this
experience
with
new
ideas
about
best
practices
and
say
you
know,
may
well
look
what
they
did
in
Delray
Beach.
We
could
do
that
here
and
so
we've
put
together
a
really
good
program,
the
current
status
of
enrollment
right
now
is
we
have
558
registrants
plus
about
60
guests.
So
that's
about
610.
C
We
have
room
given
our
setup
in
the
Events
Center
for
about
a
hundred
more
participants.
So
it's
still
open
for
registration.
Registration
is
on
the
team
website
and
I
think
can
also
be
accessed
on
the
city
website.
If
you
just
click
on
team,
Punta,
Gorda
or
gates
right
there,
melissa
is
gonna.
Tell
you
a
little
bit
about
the
program
itself
and
who
we
have
speaking.
B
So
our
program,
what
we
did
was
we
put
together
a
program
committee,
so
it
wasn't
just
Mansi
and
I
that
thought.
Oh,
we're
gonna,
select
the
speakers
and
really
influence
that
process.
What
we
did
is
we
put
together
a
cross-section
in
the
community
and
the
organizations
in
the
community
to
make
up
that
that
panel.
That
chose
our
speakers
so
out
of
that
panel,
they
came
up
with
some
great
ideas
and
I'll
share
those
with
you.
B
We
ended
up
with
Rick
severance
CEO
of
Babcock
Ranch,
former
CEO
of
Seaside
Florida,
one
of
the
first
communities
in
America,
designed
on
the
principles
of
new
urbanism,
so
he's
going
to
talk
a
lot
about
about
that
will
have
Viktor
Dover,
who
of
course,
we
know
is
from
Dover
coal.
The
firm
selected
to
assist
with
our
master
plan
he'll
be
talking
about
developing
award-winning
towns.
B
Tim
Hernandez
will
be
there
talking
about
new
urban
communities,
he's
a
builder
and
developer,
really
skilled,
an
infield
infill
redevelopment
and
traditional
neighborhood
development
opportunities
and
he's
worked
a
lot
in
South
Florida.
So
that's
that's
really
important
to
hear
from
somebody.
That's
worked
in
communities
like
ours.
We
have
a
really
really
great
panel
put
together.
Donna
Peterman
really
took
the
lead
on
this
one.
We
know
in
community
development
that
communities
can't
move
forward
without
a
really
strong
understanding
of
their
past
and
their
history,
and
history
is
so
strong
here
in
Punta
Gorda.
B
So
we
have
a
panel
consisting
of
Gussie
Baker,
Martha,
beretta,
Chris,
Evans
and
Paula
McQueen
and
leap
hits
will
be
with
us
to
facilitate
that
panel.
So
this
again
will
be
a
really
really
strong
panel
and
then
the
keynote
of
the
day.
John
Redman-
and
that's
a
name
that
many
of
you
are
probably
familiar
with
he's.
The
president
of
Allegiant
travel
he's
going
to
share
why
Allegiant
selected
Charlotte
Harbor
as
its
site
for
its
first
major
resort
and
the
potential
benefits
he
sees
for
Punta
Gorda
and
Charlotte
County
arising
from
his
company's
significant
investment.
B
C
This
is
going
to
be
the
kickoff
in
the
opening
sets
session.
It
was
former
councilman
Tom
Cavanagh
his
idea
and
if
you'll
recall,
Julie
Moriarty,
who
has
presented
to
this
council
I
think
in
particular
the
Henry
Street
proposal
that
does
just
beautiful
computer
graphics
and
it's
not
going
to
be
station.
There's
just
a
stationary
slide,
I'm
showing
you,
but
it's
gonna
be
a
fly
through
of
four
areas
of
the
city,
downtown
of
what
they
would
look
like
if
they
were
built
out
to
the
current
LDRs.
C
In
other
words,
what
someone
could
just
pull
a
permit
and
build
right
now
without
asking
for
any
variances
any
special
permissions.
What
would
be
permitted
under
our
current
LDRs
and
as
we
move
into
a
conversation
about
the
citizen's
vision
and
and
the
subsequent
changes
that
might
be
required
of
our
LDRs,
which
is
part
of
the
master
planning
process?
This
will
give
people
a
little
heads-up
about
okay.
This
is
what
we
could
do
right
now.
C
This
particular
view
is,
if
you
were
walking
down
the
harbor
walk
behind
the
Justice
Center,
and
you
see
a
huge
blocky
professional
building
on
the
left
there.
It
would
definitely
change
your
experience
of
walking
through
the
mangroves
down
the
harbor,
walk
and
right
now
that
that
could
be
so
we're
doing.
City
Market
Place
the
area
near
the
Justice
Center,
the
area
on
the
on
the
you
save
lot
and
part
of
Sullivan's
Street,
and
it's
it's
really
a
creative
presentation.
It's
just
a
what-if.
That's
all
it
is
to
stimulate
people's
thinking
and.
A
B
Let's
hope
so,
actually
we
know
that
the
community
is
really
really
wondering
what's
next
in
regards
to
the
citywide
master
plan.
What's
that
Charette
process
going
to
look
like
when's
it
going
to
be,
how
are
they
going
to
be
able
to
participate?
Howard's
gonna
have
all
that
information
for
us
at
that
event,
and
we're
really
hoping
that
this
event
will
stimulate
some
new
thinking
in
the
community
introduce
new
ideas
to
the
master
planning
process
and
bring
people
together.
C
We
are
really
psyched
about
this
whole
thing.
As
I
said,
we
have
new
partners.
We
also
have
a
dozen
additional
funding
partners
that
have
who
have
bought
ads
in
the
program
booklet.
The
program
booklet
is
going
to
be
a
really
really
nice
piece
that
okay
carry
us
into
the
charettes
and
beyond
there'll,
be
a
harbor
Nissan
car
out
in
front
and
recognition
of
their
sponsorship.
A
Excellent,
thank
you
for
shining
the
light
on
Punta
Gorda
Jeanne
Pulaski
gave
me
this
and
said
here
you
go
so
yes
I.
Well,
it's
certainly
a
question.
It's
a
comment
and
that
is
I've
had
residents
say
to
me:
I'm
really
looking
forward
to
this
day,
because
so
that
I
can
go,
provide
input
and
I
said
well.
This
is
really
a
day
for
us
to
absorb
and
listen
and
learn
so
that
we
can
prepare
ourselves
for
what's
to
come
in
helping
them.
You
know
to
clarify,
so
it's
I
think
it's
important.
C
C
D
A
B
More
quick
reminder
if
you
are
attending
the
event,
bring
your
tickets
or
bring
your
cell
phone
so
that
you
can
check
in
and
then
also
so
that
we
can
move
through
the
line
quickly.
If
you
don't
need
to
bring
a
bag
or
a
purse
with
you,
don't
because
there
will
be
bag
checks
and
the
quicker
that
we
can
get
these
six
700
people
in
through
the
door,
the
they
better
the
day's
going
to
be
so
just
a
couple
reminders.
There.
A
Thank
you,
that's
great
well,
thank
you
at
Nancy,
I
know
when
you
first
mentioned
to
me
earlier
this
year
that
you
felt
like
something
needed
to
happen
and
you've
taken
this
vision
and
and
run
with
it
and
really
it's
it's
grown
in
such
a
wonderful
way.
So
thank
you
for
your
leadership
and
in
providing
that
to
with
our
to
our
community
and
helping
expand
that
vision.
So.
C
F
G
I
think
it
is
important
to
highlight
this
is
the
Denisov
long-term
transportation
needs.
So
this
is
not
how
the
sidewalk
will
get
around
that
particular
tree,
but
rather
what
are
the
big
picture
items
that
the
city
needs
to
pay
attention
to
particularly
going
into
the
master
plan?
The
upcoming
long-range
transportation
will
be
doing.
It
also
includes
context.
Classification
I'll
go
in
that
and
go
into
that
in
a
minute
and
then
provide
strategic
guidance
and
the
help
guide
future
is
that
the
city
will
do
so
getting
started.
We
did
a
series
of
stakeholder
interviews.
G
A
H
A
G
That
so,
in
terms
of
future
considerations,
I
think
this
is
important,
because
the
long-term
transportation
strategy,
if
you
will,
is
a
lot
like
going
on
the
family's
biggest
vacation
ever
okay,
you've
got
to
start
planning
for
it
way
in
advance
and
you
have
to
get
everybody
who's.
An
interested
party
involved.
Elsewise
you
go
on
a
trip
that
nobody
wants
to.
Take
you
go
to
Abilene.
So
in
terms
of
big
future
considerations.
G
So
the
ubers,
the
lifts,
the
ride,
shares,
which
really
five
years
ago,
weren't
even
weren't,
even
a
consideration
and
look
at
how
dramatically
different
that's
been
and
dramatic
transportation
change
is
going
to
continue
on
into
the
future.
In
terms
of
growth
considerations,
largely
most
of
the
population
growth
to
the
south
in
the
east,
looking
at
a
target
of
around
twenty
five
thousand
persons
continued
concerns
in
terms
of
what
what
the
economy
is.
G
Of
the
city-
but
that's
you
know,
have
to
be
mindful
of
potential
impacts
of
that,
and
so
in
terms
of
transportation
considerations.
Again,
Sunseeker
report
concerns
about
the
one-way
pairs
discussion
about
a
potential
new
bridge
at
some
point
in
time,
the
intersections
of
41
with
red
s,
panade
and
then
just
generally
upgrading
existing
roadways,
providing
a
good
multimodal
level
of
connectivity,
bike
friendly
and
then
I
will
comment
specifically
in
terms
of
public
transportation.
It
really
wasn't
consensus.
There
was
an
identification
that
there's
an
e
there's.
G
Maybe
some
unmet
unmet
mobility
challenges,
but
that
may
be
normal
traditional
fixed
route.
Public
transportation
is
not
a
good
fit
for
the
community,
which
is
consistent
with
what
you
know.
The
discussion
or
the
dialogues
been
for
for
the
last
two
decades,
and
then
safety
was
also
an
emphasis.
So
one
of
the
first
steps
we
have
to
do.
If
we're
going
to
be
considering
what
the
future
is
going
to
be
in
terms
of
transportation,
we
have
to
have
an
understanding
of
demographic
variables
in
terms
of
population,
employment
have
a
technical
process.
G
That's
applied
to
develop
that
type
of
forecast.
Our
study
area
isn't
just
the
city
limits
it's
the
area.
That's
basically,
you
know
that
that's
bright
here
in
the
map,
we're
going
further
than
the
city
limits
and
recognition
that
what
happens
on
the
edge
of
the
city
has
a
direct
influence
of
the
success
on
the
city
and
there's
likely
to
be
annexation
potentially
in
the
future
or
some
of
some
of
these
areas.
G
So
in
terms
of
our
study
area,
we're
looking
at
a
bit
of
a
larger
area
and
you
can
see
in
terms
of
the
you
know,
the
dwelling
unit
forecast
actually
a
little
bit
more
than
what
people
who
were
saying
they
were
saying
about
25,000
people.
You
know
we're
saying
about
23,000
drawing
units,
but
that's
out
that
includes
outside
of
the
city
that
includes
the
area
outside
of
the
city
within
this
planning
area
as
well.
G
G
If
you
will
in
terms
of
accommodating
that
type
of
travel,
and
then
you
have
your
collector
roadways
of
roadway
like
let's
say,
okiya
stop,
and
then
you
have
your
local
local
streets
and
what
we
see
from
a
planning
and
engineering
standpoint,
the
level
of
mobility.
In
other
words,
the
speed
that
you
could
go,
is
really
really
high
on
those
arterial
roadways
and
then,
as
you
get
down
to
the
local
street,
they
access
is
really
great
and
the
speed
is
high.
G
Now
that
all
kind
of
makes
sense,
the
problem
is,
is
when
a
roadway
like
us
41
goes
through
your
downtown
or
a
roadway
like
17,
when
it
goes
through
your
downtown
now,
I-I-I
drove
all
the
way
from
Bartow
on
17
all
the
way.
There's
a
lot
of
similarities
here
in
your
downtown
to
what
17
looks
like
for
the
entire
stretch,
wide
lanes,
high
speed
and
so
there's
a
recognition
in
the
in
the
profession
that
we
need
to
think
about
other
things.
When
we're
designing
roads.
We
have
to
think
about
the
context.
G
What
type
of
area
is
this
roadway
going
through
and
to
be
honest
with
you,
the
Florida
Department
of
Transportation
is
really
taking
a
lead
on
this,
which
is
really
fairly
remarkable,
and
so
one
of
the
things
is,
they
were
doing
context
classification.
Their
design
standards
for
roadways
today
are
different
than
they
were
three
years
ago.
It's
sensitive
to
the
context
of
the
area.
So
if
it's
in
a
downtown
core
area,
then
sidewalks
should
be
wide.
G
The
department
has
that
in
their
design,
standards
and
the
speeds
they
should
be
lower,
whereas
before
a
lot
of
that
design
guidance
were
was
was
totally
based
on
what
type
of
Road
is
it
and
do
I
have
curb
and
gutter
or
do
I
have
open
drainage
and
that's
what
dictated
the
design
of
the
lobby
Road.
So
there's
one
of
the
things
you're
going
to
see
in
the
future
is
as
roads
resurfaced
and
reconstructed.
They're
gonna
look
different
than
they
do
now,
because
there's
a
recognition
that
the
find
it
was
wasn't
necessarily
appropriate
question.
G
And
a
planning
consideration
to
do
that,
you
would
need
to
do
a
study
just
specifically
of
the
operations
of
those
facilities.
There's
a
number
of
different
strategies,
though,
that
can
be
employed
dealing
with
the
things
that
aren't
good
with
one-way
streets
versus
things
that
are
good
and
so
I
will
make
some
comments
in
terms
of
the
one-way
pairs.
G
A
Okay,
because
I
know
it's
something-
that's
been
suggested
by
urban
planners
in
the
past
in
regard
to
our
downtown,
but
FDOT
was
more
focused
on
throughput,
and
so
they
weren't.
That
was
not
a
consideration
right.
Yeah
I,
just
didn't
know
where
that
could
go
in
the
future,
because
it
does
him,
it
does
critically
impact
the
personality
of
what
we
can
offer
our
downtown
and
what
we
some
of
the
parameters
we
are
constrained
by.
G
So
this
is
an
example
of
context,
classifications
and,
and
really
you
have
a
fairly
diverse
palette.
You
have
everything
from
what
we
call
whorl
within
this
within
this
planning
area,
all
the
way
up
to
the
most
intense,
which
is
the
urban
center.
Now
we
write
within
your
downtown
core,
and
this
is
a
conversation-
that's
already
happened
with
the
Department
of
Transportation,
at
least
on
the
state
roads,
in
terms
of
what
we're
identifying
in
terms
of
context
classification,
and
they
gave
us
guidance-
and
this
is
not
going
to
be
a
surprise.
G
It's
the
d-o-t
I'm
gonna
skip
over
functional
classification.
So
here's
the
context,
classifications.
You
can
see
how
how
things
are
basically
spread
out
and-
and
so
basically
you
have
the
urban
center
core
and
then
immediately
round
that
you
have
the
urban
general
and
then
you
have.
The
recognition
in
terms
of
the
areas
are
more
suburban
and
development.
A
big
differential
between
urban
versus
suburban
is
that
the
streets
look
like
a
gridded
roadway
network
and
have
a
lot
of
connectivity.
G
We
tend
to
consider
that
to
be
urban,
if
they're,
once
you've
called
the
sacks
and
not
very
many
streets
going
through
that's
indicative
of
suburban.
So
there
was
a
number
of
roadway
improvements
that
we
assumed.
Some
of
these
are
under
construction.
Currently,
we'll
highlight
one
of
the
projects
that
was
assumed
in
terms
of
our
future
forecast
activities
was
the
four
laning
of
a
portion
of
Taylor
Road.
That's
in
your
long-range
transportation
plan.
G
There's
currently
no
money
looking
out
to
2045
horizon
timeframe
that
isn't
assumed
the
improvement
because
it
is
identified
in
the
current
plan,
and
so
in
terms
of
looking
at
you
know,
forecasts
of
of
traffic
conditions.
Our
biggest
areas
of
concerns
is
us
41,
the
bridges
basically
and
coming
right
into
downtown
41
south
of
the
Kia
that
stott
Drive
about
Harbor
Boulevard
and
West
Marion
AB,
those
from
a
traffic,
just
your
traffic
volume
forecast
in
the
future.
Those
are
the
areas
that
we're
concerned.
G
We
took
a
look
at
crashes
and
specifically
focused
our
attention
on
crashes
of
fatalities
and
severe
injuries.
There's
always
get
reported
and
and
and
we
would
surely,
trade
off
minor
fender-bender
crashes
for
more
severe
crashes.
If
that
were
possible-
and
you
can
see
really,
you
know
the
worst
concentration
is
on
us,
41,
immediately
south
of
downtown
within
the
downtown
area.
That's
where
we
have
the
highest
of
the
currents
and
then
in
terms
of
bicycle
and
pedestrian
severe
injuries.
Fortunately
no
fatalities.
It's
a
little
bit
more
of
a
random
pattern
and
be
honest
with
you.
G
That's
that's
very
common
to
see
in
the
community
of
your
nature,
given
the
demographics,
the
the
age,
the
economic
profile
within
the
within
the
community.
This
is
not
a
surprising
number
and
indeed
is
a
fairly
low
number.
So,
as
part
of
the
master
planning
effort,
we
took
a
look
at
the
existing
work
that
has
already
been
done
in
terms
of
bicycle
and
pedestrian
facilities,
that's
incorporated
in
here,
but
we
also
identified
additional
locations
or
facilities
based
on
the
context,
classification,
the
nature
of
the
roadway
and
the
type
of
connectivity,
and
so
there's
additional
other
proposed.
G
Sidewalks
or
paths
or
trails
that
are
identified
in
the
report
and
I'll
comment.
A
lot
of
these
are
outside
of
the
city
limits
because
there's
not
necessarily
that
attention
to
detail
outside
of
the
city
limits
historically
visitor
is
within
the
city,
but
as
the
city
continues
to
grow
and
and
folks
be
the
county,
vot
or
the
city
needs
to
be
mindful
of
accommodating
that
future
future
connectivity,
likewise
on
bicycle
facilities.
G
Improvements
so
with
that
I'd
like
to
get
into
talking
about
recommended
key
action
items
and-
and
this
ties
back
to
the
overall
general
study,
but
also
those
locations,
those
corridors
of
concern
and
so
I
think
one
of
the
most
successful
things
that
this
project
can
do
successfully.
Handoff
information
and
projects
off
to
the
long-range
transportation
plan
that
the
NPO
is
going
to
do,
because
that
is
a
major
funding
opportunity
for
major
projects.
G
G
Don't
necessarily
have
to
be
bad,
but
if
the
purpose
of
this
one-way
parish
doesn't
move
a
lot
of
traffic
really
fast
and
do
it
through
a
downtown,
that's
very
bad,
and
that's
what
you
have
and
I'll
be
honest.
We
did
this
morning
just
because
I
wanted
to
be
able
to
shoot
straight
from
the
heart
driving
into
your
city.
This
morning,
I
decided
I
was
gonna,
maintain
a
consistent
distance
from
the
vehicle
that
was
in
front
of
me
until
I
got
to
the
u.s.
41
intersection.
G
I
was
anywhere
from
10
to
15
miles
an
hour
over
the
posted
speed
limit
all
the
way
from
interstate
75,
and
it
wasn't
like
this
driver
in
front
of
me-
was
driving
aggressively.
We
were
all
doing
it
and,
let's
face
it,
I
bet
most
of
you
all
and
folks
in
the
audience.
If
you
had
to
go
over
to
75
and
come
back
today,
you're
probably
going
to
do
the
same
thing.
It's
because
of
the
way
the
roadway
is
designed
and
some
of
the
design
aspects
of
it.
G
That
can
be
done
to
control
speeds
on
on
one-way
pairs.
There
is
conversations
that
are
taking
place
between
the
city
and
the
Florida
Department
of
Transportation
I
was
just
recently
part
of
one
of
those
up
in
Bartow
with
Mitchell,
and
we
met
in
their
design
studio.
We
were
talking
about
us,
41
and
items
of
really
critical
concern,
particularly
there's
intersections
that
have
a
lack
of
cross,
but
the
crosswalks
on
it
and
that
just
just
basic
urban
design,
you
can't
have
downtown
streets
and
not
have
a
crosswalk
on
all
four
legs
in
the
intersection.
G
It
doesn't
matter
what
the
volumes
are.
What
the
auto
demands
are
you
gotta
have
crosswalks
at
these
locations
and
so
that
conversations
taking
place
with
the
department
and
they're
even
giving
some
consideration,
I
think
very
strong
consideration,
moving
forward
to
studying,
putting
even
signal
control
up
at
red
s
panade
as
part
of
being
able
to
provide
access
there
on
the
northern
side
of
the
downtown
core.
So
there's
part
of
the
study
and
the
continuation
and
ongoing
work.
That's
the
type
of
conversation,
that's
happening
for
potential
improvements
in
the
near
term.
That's
exactly!
G
The
kind
of
conversation
needs
to
happen
overall
recommendation
on
an
ongoing
basis,
so
in
downtown
again
it's
a
excessive
speeds
on
the
one-way
pairs,
multimodal
considerations,
access
and
pedestrian
crossings
and
then
evaluating
how
many
lanes
you
need
particularly
going
outbound
on
17
in
downtown
I,
really
honestly
questioned.
Why
there's
three
lanes.
F
G
There's
three
lanes
going
the
other
way,
but
realistically
here
in
downtown,
there's
never
any
time
that
more
than
two
lanes
of
traffic
being
fed
into
this,
and
so
sometime
in
the
next
couple
of
weeks
just
go
out
there
and
look
at
it.
Watch
it
and
you'll
you'll
realize
that
it's
just
really
not
a
need
for
three
lanes
there
and.
F
G
Other
things
that
could
be
done
that
helps
improve
the
fabric
of
the
downtown
and
helps
contribute
to
success.
Downtown
West
over
by
Fisherman's
Village
needed
an
engineering
study
in
terms
of
pedestrian
crossings.
Again
just
I'm
shocked
by
how
fast
the
traffic
is
out
there
and
then
more
importantly,
is
taking
another
look
and
in
terms
of
what
we
call
positive
guidance
in
terms
of
the
wrong-way
drivers.
Given
the
demographics
of
the
visitors
to
fisherman
village
and
the
surrounding
area,
it
is.
I
G
G
G
Touchdown
point:
that's
a
lot
of
study
work
that
would
have
to
be
done,
but
it's
something
that's
been
in
the
long-range
transportation
plan
for
over
ten
years
now,
and
and
really
the
first
step
is,
was
what
can
be
done
in
terms
of
the
dancing
burn
sport
Road
forward
elsewise
the
pressure
becomes
well.
Do
we
need
a
six-lane
41
south
of
downtown
to
handle
this
handle
this
demand?
We
can
handle
this,
the
man
more
appropriate
really
with
an
appropriately
design
and
an
appropriately
located
roadway
facility.
G
Next
location
is
41
at
Notre,
Dame,
Boulevard
and
Tucker
is
great,
so
so
those
Tucker's
great
and
Notre
Dame
Boulevard
are
kind
of
the
meet
some
of
the
major,
east-west
collector
roadways
down
in
that
area,
and
you
can
see
they
don't
meet
up
with
each
other.
So
what
that
means
right
now,
but
is
this
area
grows
and
develop
boy
that
stretch
of
40
one's
gonna
become
treacherous
because
you
have
a
lot
of
turning
movements?
They're
gonna
be
coming
off
of
Tucker's
grade
having
to
make
the
left
turn
it's
going
to
present
safety
issues.
G
The
next
long-range
plan-
hey,
let's
take
a
look
at
this
and
there's
something
else
need
to
be
done
other
than
just
widening
41.
That's
that's
not
really
going
to
provide
the
mobility
or
the
safety
that's
needed.
Akia
strive,
I
think,
there's
a
recognition
by
most
parties
involved,
the
the
roadway
that
was
constructed.
The
improvements
that
were
constructed
years
ago,
we're
not
the
right
improvements.
G
So
in
terms
of
the
next
step
is
well
to
address
his
action
items
and
take
the
next
actionable
step
on
those
which
and
talking
with
city
staff,
I
think
you're
in
really
good
shape
in
terms
of
doing
that
continue
to
set
priorities
in
terms
of
roadway,
provements
and
multimodal
improvements,
I
mean
it
is
a
blast
to
see
somebody
presenting
on
your
capital
improvements
plan
and
the
implementation.
That's
happening
because
there's
not
very
many
communities,
especially
communities,
your
size
that
are
implementing
the
scope
of
range
of
improvements
that
you
are
in
your
community.
G
Continued
coordination
with
VOT
the
county
and
the
MPO
cos
they're
your
partners
and
oftentimes
they're
partners
with
money,
which
is
very
good
partners
to
have,
and
then
to
use
this
information
to
inform
the
citywide
master
plan.
This
does
effort
that
you're
about
to
get
underway.
That's
very
exciting
and.
D
J
J
G
Over
towards
the
grow,
a
number
of
the
developments
that
are
in
that
area
would
be
more
multifamily
in
terms
housing.
So
one
there's
there's
a
need
within
that
area.
Okay,
the
need
is
being
able
to
provide
another
opportunity
for
the
17
trips
that
right
now
are
inclined
to
go
all
the
way
over
the
41
and
then
go
to
the
south
to
be
able
to
pull
them
further
out
of
the
core
further
outside
your
major
commercial
corridor.
So
that
that's
the
second
reason.
G
The
third
reason
is:
it
does
provide
a
future
long-term
opportunity
for
a
different
connection
of
41
in
the
future.
Bridges
have
their
useful
life.
There
will
be
a
point
in
time
in
which
the
existing
bridges
will
have
to
be
replace.
I
mean
I
can
tell
you,
you
know,
historically
from
a
Florida
Department
of
Transportation
standpoint.
They
would
really
like
six
Linda's
bridges.
Okay,
they'd
like
to
widen
those
bridges
and
they
like
the
widen
41
to
the
south
of
downtown.
G
What
we're
looking
to
do
is
provide
an
opportunity
consistent
with
prior
planning
efforts
to
provide
an
alternative
at
such
time
that
those
decisions
are
being
made
so
again
in
terms
of
a
master
plan
from
a
transportation
standpoint.
You
know
articulating.
Other
opportunities
are
important,
so
you
asked
the
question
about
one-way
pairs.
Earlier
I
will
say
from
a
from
a
amount
of
transportation
demand
today
and
anticipate
in
the
future.
It
might
be
really
really
challenging
to
undo
the
one-way
pairs
at
this
point
in
time.
G
Take
a
quantity
of
that
regional
traffic
today
and
the
growth
of
that
regional
traffic
and
relocate
it
to
another
corridor.
It
provides
you
options.
It
provides
you
an
opportunity
to
be
able
to
do
that.
So
it's
a
long-term
solution
to
an
immediate
problem.
But
that's
that's
that's
where,
from
an
implementation
standpoint,
there's
things
need
to
be
done.
G
The
control
speeds,
but
there
needs
to
be
a
long-term
vision
for
how
the
deal
with
regional
traffic
that
doesn't
potentially
involve
going
through
your
downtown
because
elsewise,
it's
always
it's
always
gonna,
be
a
constraint
on
multi-lane,
two-way
traffic,
roadways
or
one-way
roadways
having
a
large
amount
of
regional
traffic.
Passing
through
as
a
consideration
from
statewide
perspective,
you
know
we're
looking
at
the
population
in
Florida
to
increase
by
40%
by
the
year
2045
a
lot
of
that
growth.
It's
gonna
happen
for
my
for
south
in
Southeast
Florida.
G
So
even
if
Punta
Gorda
didn't
grow,
the
bed
what's
happening
in
terms
of
Sarasota
County,
the
rest
of
Charlotte
County
and
Lee
County
to
the
south.
It's
going
to
create
substantial
transportation
impacts,
also
giving
consideration
to
the
fact
that
realistically,
over
the
river
there's,
there's
there's
there's
two
options:
there's
75
and
41.
So
it's
really
important
to
be
looking
now
in
terms
of
opportunities
to
provide
other
other
access.
Does
imagine
40
percent
more
traffic
on
41
well,.
G
F
D
K
G
All
the
other
pieces
and
together
it's
the
identification
of
what
this
County's
strategies
are
now
the
model
that
is
used
to
do
that
evaluation.
There's
a
model
that
includes
all
of
FDOT
district
ones.
That
includes
everything
from
a
coastal
standpoint:
okay
from
from
Manatee
County,
all
the
way
down
the
Collier
County,
then
all
of
the
interior
counties
like
Hardy
and
the
Soto
County,
so
so
the
tool
that
we
are
using
is
comprehensive
in
nature.
In
terms
of
evaluating
you
know
those
travel
demands
and
travel
flows.
A
J
A
So
a
lot
of
joint
work.
Other
questions
comments.
Thank
you
for
the
compliment
that
you
feel
our
city
is
doing
a
lot
of
really
great
work,
so
appreciate
that,
and
thank
you
for
the
insight
on
all
of
this,
as
we
move
forward
a
lot
to
think
about,
because
I
think
I've
had
residents
concerned
when
they
see
there's
a
paving
project
on
41
they've
already
expressed
their
concern.
K
A
A
I
I
D
A
A
M
M
A
H
I
I
D
A
K
Before
we
go
to
that
point,
yes,
we
need
to
know
quantitatively
what
we're
talking
about
okay.
So
the
question
that
we
need
to
put
before
us
is
is:
what
is
the
potential
contribution
from
the
compensation
package
is?
Is
it
a
hundred
thousand
dollars?
Is
a
150
thousand
dollars,
etc?
So
what
is
that
quantitative
number
I
think
that's
the
point
where
councilmember
Kerry
was
trying
to
get
to
I.
Wasn't.
H
A
H
J
K
K
K
A
J
I
K
A
A
J
I
would
like
to
recommend
we
do.
A
4%
increase
for
Karen
Karen
is
at
the
low
end
of
the
spectrum
in
the
salary
range
and
rather
than
a
standard
3%
increase.
She
was
just
raised
to
the
very
low
end
of
the
spectrum
on
the
salary
range,
with
the
new
salary
study
that
was
done
and
I'd
like
to
at
least
give
her
at
least

You
same
to
you,
Karen
policy
and
legislation,
I
don't
have
any
policy
and
legislation
items
are.
The
only
item
I've
been
asked
to
mention
by
some
residents
is
that
who
are
moving
in
historic
home
in
Punta
Gorda
on
Friday
morning
at
nine
o'clock.
There's
a
cross
directly
across
from
City
Hall
is
a
yellow
house.
It's
right
next
door
to
Sun
Coast
title
so
some
that
Suncoast.
A
Anyway,
it's
right
next
door
to
the
title,
business
and
they're
moving
it
on
down
the
street
down
Harvey
Street,
and
so
the
move
is
going
to
be
placed
on
Monday
hours.
Friday
morning
at
nine
o'clock
the
residents
said
that
people
have
been
asking
they
want
to
know
about
it.
They
want
to
come
watch,
so
they
asked
if
I
would
mention
it
now.
So
I'm
I
said
I
would
be
glad
to
do
that
other
than
that
I.
H
Debbie
I
have
one
thing,
and
that
is
that
Rob
hansik
has
been
appointed
by
the
airport
authority
to
be
the
city
of
Punta
Gorda
liaison,
so
he
and
I
are
going
to
be
meeting
to
discuss
what
exactly
that
is
gonna
mean,
but
we
have
been
in
communication
already
and
I
just
thought.
Everybody
should
know.
H
So
that,
and
then
I
would
just
like
to
say
that
the
last
two
weeks
I
have
just
been
amazed
at
the
number
of
things
that
our
fire
department
and
our
police
department
have
and
for
the
children
and
the
people
of
this
community.
It's
so
wonderful
and
they
just
don't
get
enough
credit
for
it,
but
it
really
reinforces
what
what
this
city
is
all
about
and
I
wish
everybody
a
Merry,
Christmas
yeah.
H
A
Right
at
the
Methodist
Church,
so
it
was
terrific
and
thank
you
for
working
with
Commissioner
hansik
I
know
that
he
was
not
able
to
be
our
liaison
because
of
his
particular
therapy
regimen.
He
was
on
that
prevented
him
from
coming
to
our
meetings,
although
he
wanted
to
yeah.
So
it's
really
great
because
he
also
represents
our
city
as
an
airport
commissioner.
So
that's
really
great
to
be
able
to
work
through
any
kind
of
issues
or
whatever
I
was.
K
Want
to
wish
everybody
a
happy
holiday
and
exciting
new
year
and
I
specifically,
would
like
to
take
notice
that
our
fire
chief,
ray
Briggs
will
soon
be
leaving
on
a
humanitarian
trip
to
Central
America.
It
will
be
his
second
one
to
provide
medical
assistance
to
people
far
less
fortunate
than
we
are
and
I
wish
with
Godspeed
and
a
happy
quick,
safe
return,
yeah
they're
all
going
it's
the
whole
Briggs.
J
Just
a
couple
quick
things:
I
already
mentioned
the
Carmelita
Street
intersection
improvement
with
with
the
traffic
lights
that
are
going
to
be
installed
and
also
the
piper
Road
opening
one
other
thing
that
was
discussed.
It
was
the
Nesbitt
Road
intersection
and
it
has
now
been
tabled
and
removed
from
future
agendas.
Thank
heavens,
so.
D
B
J
Future
FDOT
agendas
for
the
NPO
meetings
and
lastly,
I
was
appointed
last
week
to
the
military
heritage,
museum
Board
of
Directors
and
I'm
very
much
looking
forward
to
working
with
them
on
their
relocation
and
it's
very,
very
exciting
kind
of
time.
Right
now
so
I
just
wanted
to.
Let
everybody
know
that
an
overabundance
of
transparency
I,
don't
think,
there's
ever
anything,
that's
going
to
come
before
the
council.
J
A
J
L
Residents
that
are
across
from
the
pickleball
courts
are
asking
that
for
Christmas,
even
Christmas
Day,
if
play
can
be
suspended,
so
they
can
enjoy
the
holidays.
I
actually
received
two
physicians
notes
that
actually,
that
actually
showed
that
actually,
the
actual
medical
harm
was
caused
to
them.
They're,
simply
asking
for
those
two
days
if
they
can
and
be
able
to
enjoy
the
holidays,
like
other
families
in
the
community.
