>> here. Okay, welcome everybody. Um, the planning commission is appointed by the board of county commissioners and we meet twice a month. The planning commission holds public hearings and transmits to the board of county commissioners recommendations on
resonings and conditional use requests. The planning commission is the final decision-making body for special exceptions, certain appeals, variance requests, and certain alternative standard requests. However, final decisions may be appealed to the board of county commissioners.
The planning commission also serves as a local planning agency and as the LPA, this body makes recommendations in regard to the consistency with the adopted Pasco County comprehensive plan of proposed comprehensive plan amendments and land development code
amendments. If anyone is in opposition to any comprehensive plan amendment, land development code amendment, reszoning, conditional use, or any item where the planning commission transmits a recommendation to the board of county commissioners, it is important that you
attend the appropriate board of county commission meeting. Okay. Um I think we have some minutes to approve. >> You can do it now. That's good. >> Yeah. Go ahead and do the proof. >> The items are advertised in 10 times on
January 7, 2026 and on February 4th, 2026. >> Okay. And we have meeting minutes to approve. >> Motion to approve the meeting minutes from September [clears throat] 4th, 2025, September 18th, 2025, and October 2nd.
>> Okay. Motion a second. Any further discussion? All in favor? >> I >> oppose. Motion carries. Okay. So, for those of you who haven't been at our meetings before, um the meetings are split up into three sections. F. Well,
first we take public comments for anything that's not on the agenda. Then we also have public hearings where we hear or we hear continuence items. Uh we hear consent items. And then we hear any items that are on the regular agenda. So before we get into the public hearing procedure, is there anybody here to
speak um on anything that's not on today's agenda? >> I do have one individual signed up for public comment, Mr. Chair. And just to note for the record, I have no individual signed up on what I speak in opposition on any items today. >> Okay. >> Miss Judy Ostein is for public comment.
>> Okay. And real real quick before we start this, there's a couple quick things. First, when you address the planning commission and the LPA, comments are not make sure comments are not directed personally against any commission member or team member, but rather directed at the issues at hand.
This provides mutual respect for the person given raising the comment or the issue and the commission itself. Um, and anybody wishing to speak today, if you can, let's go ahead and swear everybody in now. So, if you if you plan to give any testimony today, please stand and
raise your right hand. from the test you're about to get to the truth. They'll help you out. >> And last, if you have anything that makes noise, cell phone, pager, any device, please make sure it's in the silent position. >> Okay. And that's all I have. You want to come forward?
>> Go ahead. >> My name is Judy Ostein. I live at 7650 Ostein Road, Newport Richie, Florida. Longtime resident of Pasco County. Um, I'm here to find out what's going on with a feasible study on Ostein Road and
when will we have a hearing on it? Is it going to be before you do adjustments or after you do adjustments? We have been waiting to find out what you have decided. It's totally not appropriate to open a road and dump
traffic into a subdivision that has one way in and one way out. Has anybody looked at that? >> Okay. Well, first off, we don't we will not hear anything on Ostein Road. Um I don't know, David, is there any update on status of anything on Ostein?
>> I actually do not know and I don't know if there's anybody from public works that's working on that that's even in the audience. >> We have been waiting for some answers on it. So, I think it's probably better if
you ask this question to the board of county commissioners. The planning commission is not involved in that study or is not going to make a decision on that issue. >> Okay. Thank you. >> It's not a it's not there's no land use
application on Ostein Road that it's before the planning commission. >> So, the study you're referring to is is I believe was initiated by the board of county commissioners. requested by the board of county commissioners. >> The study is opening Ostein Road from
Massachusetts to Orchard Lake Road. >> I understand that, but I believe it was it was requested by the board of county commissioners, not the planning commission. >> Not the planning. It was county commissioners. >> Board of County Commissioners. >> All right. Thank you. >> I don't know if there's anybody any staff member here that I guess we
>> county engineers maybe can get up and Nick, you want to answer the question? Good. Go ahead. Nick, you're in county engineer. I'm happy to give you more information. >> Okay. >> Okay. So, yeah, if you just see Nick, he'll he'll help you out and he'll get
you the information that you need. >> Thank you very much. You've been kind. >> Okay. Is there anybody else here to speak to anything that's not on today's agenda? >> Okay. So, we will move into the public hearing
>> portion of the agenda. Real quick, to go over the procedures. Um, in-person participants and participants attending through WebEx, including the applicants who have pre-registered for the planning commission meeting, will be notified by county staff when it's their turn to speak. Applicants will be limited to
five minutes, and other participants will be limited to three minutes. Additional time is approved at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting, and I don't believe we have any of that today. Inperson participants and WebEx participants must announce the following items before speaking.
and you've already and please acknowledge that you've already been sworn. Please give your name, your address, the agenda name or title or number of the agenda item you're speaking to. Then the three or five minute timer will start. Today I think we have eight public hearing items on the agenda, three
continuments and five consent items. I believe there's an adjustment to that for one or two items, but John will go over that. Um the consent items will be approved by regular vote unless the item is pulled from consent and Once a motion is made on the consent agenda, we'll then call for a second and the motion
will be voted on. So G, do you want to get started? >> Good afternoon, planning commission members. Giana German, planning, development, and economic growth. The first item that we have on continuence is PC4. It's PTE 257917. A special exception in the name of Love

question. One was a question for staff and I think there might be a typo or some additional um information might be added to the agenda memo for finding fact number 12. Um I noticed that you're
not referencing the previous resoning on that property that happened in 2022, resoning 7621. So, I would just if this gets a motion to approve, I would just make sure that motion includes that previous resoning
in that history. Um, my other comment was um the buffer, not actually a buffer, it's a setback, it's 150 foot buffer. So, I just want to make sure the applicant is clear that from the western property line, there is a 150 foot buffer that is abunding a school board
property um and an existing school site. And then my last additional comment is when the applicant comes in for site plane review if we can just coordinate the access because we do have a bus garage and the elementary school on Inter Lincoln Road.
>> Okay. Uh Clark Hobby Hobby and Hobby PA 109 North Brush Street, Tampa, Florida. Ben Sworn. Uh yes, there's a very large uh retention pond on the west western part of this property. So the setback won't be any problem there. I think our development's like five or six hundred
feet I think away from it. Uh and yes, we will we will get with the school board on it and I'm I'm aware of the bus facility. Uh Liam, just so you know, um we're working with the county about an exchange because they want us to go up a
pond burm over there and we're working on that together. But I I take your point because I don't know if the engineers coordinated whether that's directly across the street from the the bus turnin or or what. But I will I I'll make sure the engineer Aurora engineering's doing it. So I'll make
sure they get with you guys on it. >> Thank you. We would just like coordination on the access in case it does shift over towards the bus because they come out of there and and enter in there daily. >> No problem. Okay. Thank you. >> Okay. Anything further on that item? >> Okay. So, need a motion.
>> I'll make a motion to approve with the added language language to condition 12. A second. >> Okay. Motion a second. Any further discussion? All in favor? >> I motion carries. Think we have anything else?
