Ashley would you do the roll call please okay chairman Shan P let the record show that chairman sha p is not currently at today's meeting member Randy stout here member Lorie Simpson here member Michael FZ here member rald
McDonald let the record show that member Ronald McDonald is absent from today's meeting City attorney Nancy Meer here do we have a motion to approve the minutes for October and November of 2024 motion approve
minutes all in favor iOS okay uh comments from the general public uh d uh Bob H is first sorry hello there you go all right Bob hubard 7515 Grand Boulevard
Port Richie um I'm here uh just to bring attention to the zoning board an issue uh that we have at the city that needs to be addressed hopefully sooner than later that comes the signage digital signs um we have some CL some business
owners here in the city that have had electronic signs and they want to give them repaired Accord to zoning laws they can't even repair what they have uh because it's so outdated we need to update it um to LCD or LED which is the
new technology if you look around all the other cities have addressed this and they have allowed it under a variance which is something we need to address if it's existing they should be able to repair their own signs uh if they have a variance allowable to more signage they should be allowed to put in a digital
sign as long as it is something that meets the needs of the city uh but this needs to be addressed um I would recommend that you can put the digital signs in with the addition with the existing variants if they do have room that they should be able to put in a
digital sign sign if not possibly a special event two we window for a digital sign that they can possibly put out in front of their building but it's something that uh we need to address and that we need to put into the zoning so at least the business owners that have
electronic signs can get theirs repaired and back online to help their business thank you d m Dave Mueller 5439 blueo drive at one point in time this um Planning and Zoning Board took up uh the notion of
seaw wall repair maintenance I don't believe it's ever been moved forward from that um but I would like to see something done on that and try to get that added to the agenda because uh I've got to see wall across the canal for me
that has failed and all the L land that's sitting on top is now spilling into the canal and the Hurricanes didn't help matters any it just pushed more dirt in a canal so we're contemplating a
probably a storm water plan and I think we need to get that on the agenda and start uh getting people to take care of their seaw walls if if we're going to try to do anything to maintain the waterways in this city I appreciate you take taking that up up as a as agenda
item thank you we have comments from the chair members anything um okay I thought we had addressed yeah the seawalls are coming back as you know what we did bring forth was not care for
so the process has started over okay um so you will be getting something again okay because I know we had discussed quite a bit whether getting something to over to council regarding what building officials could do and couldn't do it's coming I'm working with a new building official it's going to come back to you
guys hopefully very soon so it can go back to coun then it can go to council and the same with the signs we talked about that you guys are G talk about signs on March 3 right yeah um the board wanted to have have a meeting with uh the public and
businesses so we scheduled that on 31st at 6m and we're going to be starting the notice out to the businesses as well as the public so that would be the first one and then one would assume then the regular meeting in uh April you would
then start taking that discussion up further can I ask a question on the first gent yes what the issue is I guess you're a business owner yourself and you have a sign I don't but you're
you know somebody does yes there's there's business owners in the in the first of all one one is like catch's restaurant they've had a sign up on their building for 15 years they wanted to just repair it same size a little bit
nicer but our zones our zones won't allow our codes won't allow it uh other businesses wanted to put U like a digital sign maybe on their fence or in front of their building for advertising and of course they're not allowed to do that um I do believe for the as a growth
as we're trying to develop the city these should be allowed um with some kind of variance obviously to help promote and bring notoriety to the city and to the Business Leaders of the city but you're
saying that's kind of a given that's kind of a given yeah you have an existing digital sign that can't be repaired because the codes won't allow it but if you allow him to repair his sign then obviously someone else wants to have an LCD or an LED sign which is
the new technology then we changed the zoning the signage law recently no so the issue as it relates to catches is they are in the Waterfront District water overlay District that prohibits that type of
signage so you can have that signage in other parts of the city but you can have it in that district and So eventually there you know there' be two different pieces that have to be done one is we have to redo because you know our our
sign code is very old it doesn't address the newest technology as it relates to LED so we want to update that to make it you know I guess to a certain degree easier for people to do it but still conform to what the community wants it to look like um and once you have that
changed you would have to go back to the Waterfront overlay district and remove that that prohibition so there's actually two things that need to be done there maybe we can address that after the the meeting about signage that's going to be scheduled
right sign and if you know people catches I would suggest they find out when that is so they could share with us what what they're trying to do I just I I planned on sending that to the because I know that this is an issue that affects them and and I had talked
to them about that as far as they're concerned they just want to replace what they have right Whiskey Joe's would like to have a little digital sign on their board that you can read just not on 19 but on the road in front of their business to promote some of the activity they have going on there as well as
Hooters when they reopen so they can all come down here but I I'm here just to speak for most of them it's just a common sense issue I hope we can just put something together with with the variance for those digital signs just to keep up with the times right and that's what we're in the middle of doing
upgrading the the guidelines on this sign here so I think if they come here and can tell us okay what they're trying to do we try our best to make that happen yeah Matt has has talked to him he's kind of aware but yeah thank
you Matt do we have um has staff done looked into other places and I know there's a lot that goes into signage M um and I know that digital signage specifically because of how bright it can get and how distracting it can get in traffic that dot has a lot involved
in that we already have all that data so that we can discuss all that on the 31st so I I've started putting together some different collection of different codes from across Florida on that because that that one I mean there's there's a lot of issues sure right um that one is a
little bit more technical because then you get into the brightness and right and all this other stuff that you don't get into into a regular sign right yeah because I know dot is really big on what colors can be displayed where and when and how bright and
there's a lot there's a lot that goes into and that that becomes an issue there because it is right on top of 19 and and so there's a lot working through I you know I wish I could say it was going to be easy um but probably will
why start now yeah um just to finish up I have no comments so now we're on to the agenda take over gladly I just want to let the record show that chairman Shan p is now present for today's meeting yes thanks I apologize everybody for being a
little late this morning or this afternoon that's my day it's this morning still so um okay so you up to Tammy prob me okay to Miss Tammy okay you have the floor okay I think we're all set so uh
my name is Tammy V foric Consulting I serve as your on call city planner and today we're here for a public hearing for the comprehensive Plan update to bring it to uh a horizon year of 2045 and this is based on a
2023 evaluation and Appraisal review that was conducted by the city shared with the state and then the State said okay um now you have a year to process these comprehensive plan updates or um amendments and that's what we're doing right now so the purpose of the public hearing
is to review particularly the goals objectives and policies for certain elements of the city's comprehensive plan for which we found U some um inconsistencies with the latest State Statute uh most importantly was the uh conservation and Coastal management
element because the state required that uh all include Peril of flood policies and we'll get more into uh that in a little bit uh we're Al we also have some minor tweaks to the transportation infrastructure intergovernmental
coordination and Capital Improvements elements uh the heing is also along with your discussion and consideration of the goals objectives and policies is to invite public input and then finally to make your recommendation to city council as to whether the uh amendment should be
adopted denied or adopted with modifications so we're going to start with the conservation and Coastal management element which was a complete rewrite of the element in your comprehensive plan so when we're looking at the the goals objectives and policies today they're they're a complete uh
replacement of so we'll do a a strike and replace uh of those policies and I know we've gone through the I think we've had meetings we've gone through these so I'm not going to go through in great detail but I'm going to talk about each one of the goals and
the objectives therein just for the the purpose of the viewing audience um the first goal is regarding natural and cultural resour um the objectives under this goal include ecosystem preservation habitat
protection air quality water conservation energy conservation C resources protection and Waterfront uses and Public Access and these are um objectives that are identified within statute for Coastal communities and and
all communities relative to conservation uh to include in their comprehensive plan so I'm going to touch on just those policies that we had discussion items at at our last at your last worksh um but if anybody has any additional questions
about other policies then just let me know so we're going to start with a CM 1.1.5 category one Wetlands which identifies U the how those wetlands are uh identified through criteria the
question was the last there was a question about the last um item number Wetlands of any size that are providing critical habitat for federal and or state dangered species would by that by
virtue of that be considered a Cate or one Wetland and have those kind of higher stand for protection I did look in the Pasco County comprehensive plan and it's it is a kind of a standard way of identifying a category one Wetland um
and so Pasco County has showing that another Community has that do we have to have it in well I guess that's I think it's I would suggest that it stay within there
uh just because those particular pieces of your city if they even exist we don't have a a sense of if you have any Wetlands that have habitat for those types of protected species but if you did you probably would want to have some protections on them I would think in my
opinion as my professional opinion just kind of Jump Ahead a little bit I remember was talks about requiring an a field inspector to determine if there are any endangered species out out there yes there's a
requirement for sets for a five acre for larger property so if you are under five acres not required to have somebody determine that's right unless some other information came to light but if we're
not we're not going to ask a developer of a property less than parcel or five acres to do a biological survey to determine that just I think so while this relates to what what our comprehensive plan
requires well you have to remember is there's going to be another set of eyes looking at any development that happens and so I'm guessing Swift mud's going to be interested in when lands and may already know that an area that is going to be developed has potential for that
that species that's going to be there so us eliminating this out of out of our comprehensive plan isn't necessarily going to take the onus away from you know someone doing that review so I just wanted to make sure understand you took it out it's not
magic no one will ever look it it will happen Okay the next policy under discussion is 1.5.5 regarding Urban heat islands and there was a question regarding the suitability
of green roofs and living walls um in Florida because of the potential for water seage and Termite infestation which is a really good point um those those types of um Technologies and these are all Florida examples um would
require that the building be constructed to be able to accommodate that type of technology so if somebody came and they wanted to plant plants on their roof it would be and they didn't do anything special to protect that building it
would be at their own Peril but I don't think that's necessarily something that you know the city would if you're not getting a building permit just because somebody puts plants up on their roof which is not really a green roof but certainly um the city would would look
at that to see if the structure was going to be a safe structure in terms of building also want to say see another one um the University of Florida has um and this is actually from them they indicate the benefits of of um and
living walls and also interestingly Hillsboro County allows some credit for if you have a green bird so um any thoughts on additional thoughts on that I would get a credit if I don't blow the
leaves off do you have a storm water standard that you're trying to meet well and and by definition this isn't these are in the building code so proper use of a build of a green it's not just a matter of letting your gutters grow with stuff in
them um or or letting the leaves collect on the roof to build these requires a a tremendous amount of engineering um because it has to have water runoff it has to have tapers and grades and there's so much that goes into it we
looked at doing on the house and it was it was not cost effective at the time for the way that we were going to do it for the benefit that we could get out of it um but there's a Hu tremendous amount of engineering that goes into whether how to do this and how to do it properly the building would never let you put a
roof on and just go hey we're gonna we're gonna throw some shrubs up there and do you have code Provisions that if somebody has a tree growing off their roof just because the seed dropped there at one point do you have something that says hey you need to like a property maintenance
code okay yeah so all kind of things r c yes for sure maybe some little animals too okay I'll share I'll share that story after the meeting I have with the gutters okay uh the next uh goal is
related to Coastal resiliency and this entire section the goals objectives and policies in this area are uh pretty much speaking to that Peril of flood so how can you to make your community more resilient in the face of um more worting
storms and sea level rise the objectives include risk assessment and mapping so keeping on top of what the risk is uh public infrastructure natural protection land planning and regulation building
standards and risk financing and insurance so the first policy that we had under discussion from last last time relates to infrastructure retrofits and upgrade policies let me make mine a little bigger here so I can
see hopefully you have this on your screen um this one related to now I'm losing my train of thought develop strategies for retrofitting or upgrading critic oh so previously this
was was I'm trying to okay let me start back up develop strategies for retrofitting or upgrading critical public infrastructure is this I don't think I have this right critical public infrastructure something about
flood improve in flood resilience sorry about this vulnerable areas to structural integrity and seamless integration with surrounding properties this related to your comments coming back to me now so we talked about what happens in the future when the city goes
in to elevate some some roads or streets within the community how do we do some transitioning to the adjacent properties so what this is saying that and this is not telling you how to do it but it's certainly is simply pointing out that that is a a need within the community so
you need to develop strategies that include or not but not limited to stabilizing armoring or elevating Bridges and water utilities implementing terrain modification strategies to moving the land around to elevate land
improve drain and enhance flood resilience expanding storm water management capacity through improved Drainage Systems Green infrastructure and nature-based solutions and strengthening water treatment and conveyance facilities to
withstand flood impacts and Main Service continuity so as I went back again I kind of reorganized things a little bit I wanted to be able to call out about stabilizing arm marine and elevating and then going on to say that um by
implementing terrain modification strategies that you could work with um elevating land drainage and other such blood resilience so that's change enhancing to expanding because I thought that was a little bit
more descriptive um and then upgrading and I put to strengthening because I thought that was a little bit more uh not not restrictive but Des descriptive does do you think that this and we have another one coming up that also works with what I think it's a new
policy I like that anybody else have any comments on that okay so the next one is policy 2.2.5 regarding expend in the coastal High Hazard area and prior to this um
the the current text which I believe is already your comprehensive plan is to avoid public infrastructures for new streets sewer or waterline extensions or expansions within the coastal High Hazard area that could encourage higher densities in areas vulnerable to major
storm events and so the proposed text is essentially to kind of keep that line of thinking but to actually stipulate what sort of infrastructure Investments would be acceptable or could or would be acceptable so that would include
infrastructure that supports the safety of life and property such as traffic and pedestrian signals and signage street lights fire hydrants Etc underground utilities infrastructure maintenance repair or replacement of existing facilities
hardening existing infrastructure to avoid mitigate or reduce for future damages from hazards such as storm surge and sea level rise restoration of Natural Resources or Public
Access oh this is a littleit oh two address an existing deficiency in the coer a plan new or retrofitting of existing storm water management facilities for water quality enhancements of St storm water runoff management of sewer system influ and
infiltration or the expenditure for public facility of overriding public interest to ensure public health safety and Welfare so essentially able to go in to those systems to make them more
resilient um so that you can do something because most of your area is a coastal High Hazard area so it would be very restrictive to say no public infrastructure Improvement or um that could potentially lead to development
because that's essentially what you know you have a large area that's in the coastal High Hazard area is development going to happen yes it is but we need to continue to infrastructure not only in good repair but also to anticipate what sort
of new technologies uh could come into play to make those uh infrastructure facilities more resilient and um to withstand the threats this the city has this position here
saying there right so we would strike that and we would use the uh the text in red current oh you're striking to strike that okay that's the current text because it was a little too it was a lot restrictive because so much of your area
is Coastal High Hazard you are a redeveloping community um there's a lot of aged infrastructure you need to be able to keep in good repair and also uh Advance new technologies to make sure that you're protecting your
Investments the next one is policy 2.4.2 multi-layered best practices and this is where we incorporated some of the terrain modification language I looked in the Treasure Island um what was the report called in Treasure elev
Elevate TI and I didn't there wasn't anything to directly pull from that but I kind of synthesized it so essentially we would um modifi this to incorporate best practices for mitigating future flood
events in the Land Development code so this would need to be followed up with amendments to your Land Development code um such as increased setbacks from flood planes erosion control requirements for waterways storm water management policies such as underground stor
systems bioses rain Gardens floodable Landscapes and tree preservation standards for impervious surface regulations for terrain modification including grading and elevation standards responsible fill use and
compatible requirements to prevent adverse water displacement mitigation me measures for properties adjacent to infrastructure elevation projects including requirements for driveway modifications creating adjustments stem wall
installation and other drainage solutions to prevent negative impacts on accessibility and storm water flow and requirements for elevating structures above projected flood levels some of this you're already going to have in your code but it's a it's a spot in
there and it really was a place to kind of have all these multi-layered strategies for U the protecting property you think that hits the Mark or do would you suggest any terminology changes no I think that
govern that covers it it opens it opens it up for us to build codes and and work with building department to actually come up with a plan that suits the community um it's hard to be more specific because we don't have a roadway
elevation plan yet right so until we have that this gives us enough broad broad yet clearly defined that these are goals kind of the the high point we want to do this and this set sets the pace for we want to be able to go in and say we want to build these
things out and we want to build build codes that will do the do the work so that we can do it intelligently as opposed to just having a well at some point in the future we might need to do that so we'll deal with it then this I think gives us at least a framework to build on so that we can sit down and
workshop how do we deal with flooded roads in the future and this gives us a reasonable frame I think leave space it for inter based on how technology will change as well so I'd say it's perfect the way it's WR okay great so the next goal relates to
emergency preparedness and evacuation the objectives are emergency preparedness and emergency evacuation there was a question regarding um having over any any properties that offer overnight accommodation facilities that they must
submit an approved hurricane evacuation plan for all guests um I would think that this is probably a good thing to Aspire to um because we do have opport chances that people could be in town
that don't necessarily know about what the risks are so what this does is it uh ties it to the building tax receip process so let me read the replacement to enhance Public Safety and ensure
emergency evacuations require all overnight tourist accommodations to develop and maintain an evacuation plan outlining procedures emergency contacts shelter locations and transportation options and communicate this information
to guests upon checkin incorporate compliance with this requirement into the city's business tax receipt process so maybe that's a simplified approach to it but maybe somebody who knows more about your business tax receipt process
and if that would be an appropriate way to regulate I mean it's pretty much more informational I don't know that there there's going to be a lot of um enforcement on this but it's it is kind of a responsible practice for somebody who is bringing in unknowledgeable
potentially out of town guests that could be you know caught surprised by something that um by a storm that comes in you know they happen pretty quickly sometimes I'm getting it a look because I own airbnbs
in the city that's why help us help us understand so yeah so I have a question um because I I haven't done the Airbnb thing um my wife books all that I don't book it um is there a place within Airbnb and vbo with us the booking sites
for you to have documentation to provide documentation to to the clients the sample answer is yes so um many of the posts themselves do not do that right um as somebody who lives in that in set area I did incorporate in our so if you
click and you log into mine when you get your checking instructions it'll tell you um you are in a coastal area due to the fact that as such you have to be advised that there is a the correct way to get out of the city if need be so yes we do kind of we address it in my personal ones and the reason I ask is
because obviously this begs the compliance and enforcement um we're probably not going to have an inspection process where you go around and verify that they've got evacuation plan posted in the building um but it would be fairly easy we're not talking about a
lot of how many airbnbs do we really have within City Limits you know it could beage oh I'd say a couple dozen maybe a couple dozen I'm thinking that if it's something that we require as part of their I know we've talked about in the past having something where if you're
going to operate an Airbnb or a short-term rental then you're going to have to register it in some fashion um as part of that registration process part of what you signed would say that you're going to post it in your listings that we have you and and I know that um
uh the PPI board is working on a whole bunch of uh a whole bunch of information about how to evacuate what that means where do you go all of those things they're working on signage and all sorts of stuff there so maybe there's an incorporation there well so I'm I'm
thinking probably the easiest way to make it uniform correct because I mean what we don't want is individuals making up their own no it's open to interpretation you don't want that at all exactly and so my my thinking with this is that the city
would create kind of a one or two page hopefully one page you know emergency evacuation cheet and you should know and right and you know probably as part of that that um process for getting your business tax receipt for a short-term
rental there's a statement that yes I agree that I'll have this posted somewhere visible within the the rental that's my thought that way it's uniform we we know that now are we gonna go there other than maybe the first first
time that you register right with that probably not after that but the first time we will have so that's why I was thinking County did the same thing did so I have an Airbnb and gain for instance and same thing when I went registered it with with lcho County they
have well we have the form you can come pick up I said well that sounds like pretty vague so I went I went and picked up the form for them and I said what do you want me to do it just has to be in the house I'm like that doesn't really make any sense um and it was because they weren't taxing and managing their airbnbs directly through vrb and Airbnb
together so it was a responsibility of the homeowner to manage that process well that doesn't really work right if I hang something on the refrigerator it may not be there the next time because the next person just rips it off so I asked the same exact question and their response to it was we don't know best way to do I'm like well what do you do I
said I'll tell you what I do in Port erchie and he said what are you doing I said it's listed in my checkin instructions oh perfect so then two weeks later I got an email it's now they send it to everybody we just copy it place in your instructions it's good to go I use logy which is a software manage
but it puts it up to all the different ones whether it's booking.com or anything so it's all consistent that way because the ability to check on it even from a host standpoint I go to my house in Gainesville only once every two months so I I can't keep track of what they what they've done there even if I have staff that they to manages they
don't doesn't pretend it's going to be done so I do like that idea yeah well and not to place more on city offices but if we wanted code enforcement to be able to verify it it would be something they could if we only have we're only talking about less than 50 of them
quarterly they could just log into everything that's in Port rich and see that there those documents exist the city of por doesn't monetize It Anyway correct we don't we don't charge a ser sir tax in the city no we don't do a business tax on I know that Pas County gets it do you have
to we are going to be doing it okay so and I will tell you it was a a disaster from elro County because I had to physically go through and count all the ones I had from accounting provide them that data then they would send me a tax bill separate every single month I was always in AAR because they never would
get the information done in a timely manner they're charging M Speed like why don't you just call vbo and Airbnb it's easy you add it to click and takes two seconds as soon as they did that they did stting January 1 it's been a smooth process ever since so and the city should be doing the same thing because
we are going to continue we're in such a transition between my business and his business now I think that half the waterfront properties we have especially if they're ground floor in the next 12 to 18 months are going to be switched to rentals because we're losing our residence because of it and investors
are buying them up because they see the grand scheme what they can make MoneyWise and because of that fact we're missing the tax reeven we could be getting here in the city I have no quangs in the city you tell me it's going to be 2% or 5% of my rental great I don't pay it anyway it goes I pass it
on to my client the guests gladly pay it so I think it's something we're just missing out on and if we can incorporate into the the business tax registration or whatever we're going to call it that's a that's a wonderful way of doing it because because every I know quite a few of the the same hosts in the city I
mean Lor's the host too hers is more long term with but but it's the short-term people we have we we would gladly register for them but we don't because there's no way to do it currently so we all just got to do our thing well I think registration also gives you the benefit of it's
everything's above board like this is solid the city knows about it the community knows about it like because I think there's people that are like running some on the down low behind you know this because they're worried about getting caught because Pasco County's not they don't know the rules saying that this is something that
we we want you to do we we you know we recognize it as a viable a viable business in the city but we want you to do it right we want and here's one of the one of the things that we want you to do we want you to post this so that your resident your people that are coming in your tourists that are coming in are safe because they are renting
through the middle of hurricane season and it's G to make your job easier too in the future because eventually what's going to happen is we don't want to put ourselves in a position like treasure out they know people in Indian Rock Beach they have people standing at city council me is screaming that they live in this community they live here for 25 years and now there's four airb bees
around them that nobody's managing and they don't even know that they being bees because nobody's told them they were being bees um and I think we're going to be if we're not careful we're going to be really quick to have that happen where we're at I mean when I put mine in it was one of the very first ones in the era so I mean I mean Lor's
you've had yours for a long time right you're so but there's most of them when we started doing airbnbs it was at the end of Co when we started doing them because they were all good long-term rentals here so the uh only thing that
I'll say maybe we don't want to put business tax process there because there are bills coming forward to eliminate that sure oh and and I don't know if we want short-term rental registration process
registration process yeah yeah well Ian honestly people are cheap and don't want to follow the rules so you something oh I'm not paying that right no you know we encourage you to be a Airbnb owner in the city we encourage that we want the revenue from it as well
we want to help manage your process for you help get your GE your your guest up safely if there's an issue um we just need you to register I don't care if there's a cost Associated we can make our money back when we when we tax them for the deal right don't don't even charge them to to register just get the property registered and then we know the
people that are visiting our city are safe so well you can it's you can motivate them to register because the folks that were in Pasco County before Pasco County's rule went into place were the only people that are still legally allowed to operate corre in that circumstance and everyone has to assume
that at some point we will hit a threshold within the city where we're like okay that's enough and so if you're not registered when we hit that threshold then you're going to lose your rental income um you know we need you know that's a good way to get them to register it now so that and then that
helps us with compliance to make sure that people are safe and everything's compliant well it's a beautiful thing too when they sell those properties then they because it's a one to one they sell that property then somebody else can you're next to the list you can have one so but you're right you kind of manage that process dude you don't want it to be a a
town full of rentals either I don't want a town rental my name so what I'm hearing is to keep the proposed tax as is but to replace the business tax receipt process with the short-term rental registration process but but actually this is relating to all
tourist accommodation so this wouldn't necessarily just relate to how about tourism accommodation registration process because hotels have to register with the city correct what we just strike that last part what if we don't even refer to the
process by which this would be implemented delete that last okay so the fourth goal is post disaster Redevelopment um this would post disaster so those things that you you do to get your community up and
going and then also redeveloped over time so the objectives are post Disaster Recovery post disaster repair and Redevelopment and the post disaster Redevelopment plan so for this policy
4.2.1 related to a building moratorium and so it was felt that moratoria was probably a little bit too strong in this particular case because uh from The Experience recently there was just a process that you had without having to
shut everything down so the the proposed uh language is after a major disaster the city council shall adopt an emergency permitting process to expedite critical repairs necessary for Public Safety while ensuring compliance with
federal regulations and requirements period the other things regarding damage assessment explor and redevelop those are wrapped up in other parts of your the policies relative to the post develop post disaster Redevelopment plan
so they really were kind of um redundant with some other things and the fact that we're not thinking about moratoria but more so just you know having some type of a pery process that's sensitive to what people are experiencing at that
time much better yeah I think that yeah leaves leaves room for the building department and the city offices to make a decision as to what we need to do for the type of disaster that we've just had well and it
should help alleviate the fear created PRI verbage to the citizens who don't understand what what we're asking them to do exactly so okay so the last one and I don't think that there were any changes but the last goal is community engagement and partnership so
Outreach and engagement relative to conservation and Coastal management and also the different types of Partnerships uh that would be implementing and funding Partners so this um these what I'm going to talk about now just very quickly are
the other elements that were touched by the evaluation and Appraisal process uh Transportation infrastructure interg governmental coordination and Capital Improvements starting with Transportation this one was to acknowledge um us19 as a facility on the
Strategic Intermodal system in coordination with the adjacent local governments and the agencies relative to uh level service on US 19 uh adding a policy regarding recreational traffic in the
transportation element so that essentially accomplishes that state level requirement under the infrastructure element this one was to reduce the city's portable water level of service standard
from 105 gallons per capita per day to 96 gallons per capita per day based on more of a updated demand usage data the next one just describes the required water supply facilities work
plan showing um that it's done it's done for a 10 year at least a 10year period and that it corresponds with the update of the southwest Florida Water Management District water supply uh Regional water supply plan and that mentions the statute that's uh
applicable this is uh intergovernmental coordination there's a few of these related to this there was a requirement to remove voluntary dispute resolution processes uh to uh replace that with mandatory dispute resolution processes
these are the additional policies that were also revised to reflect that and it also indicates that Tampa Bay Regional planning Council does provide a forum for mediation for local governments uh that might find
themselves in conflict with others the Capital Improvements element this one was to just update 95 for administrative code no longer exists so that's just the hous
keeping this is a a level of service standards policy that lists all of the city's level of service standards so we updated the pable water as I mentioned previously and the last one is the
concurrency management system um just doing a little bit of housekeeping on that doesn't really oh to to the main thing was to remove the financial feasibility requirement on the company a plan which is no longer required I don't think that you know I'm
thinking it says the schedule the schedule should be updated annually through that must have it's been a while since I um did this one but I think that that is no longer a requirement which is why I struck it I'll check on that does anybody have any questions for
me before you get into your deliberation no thank you for your third H oh you're welcome I love comprehensive planning so we couldn't tell discussions we're gonna start Mike Start
um I think she's done a really good job of wrapping up our discussions up to this point um boring those couple of quick es it looks to me like we've we've encapsulated the the few
public comments that we've had um and comments from staff um I'm I'm I'm happy with where we ended up on this um I think it gives us a good Vision at least for the foreseeable
future we know we can amend this later if things change we know we have a lot of Development coming in potentially um but we also have a lot of climate change coming in so I think this encapsulates a lot of pieces of that um and gives us a good framework for
helping the city build zoning um and and ordinances that that will help us grow intelligently yeah I'm happy with the updated version of all this um I guess I want just I've asked this before I just
maybe I just want to hear it again that wherever it says support and promote and encourage and stuff that doesn't mean shall or will that's correct I'm correct about aspirational okay perfect Mr
Lori I commend you a lot of work but it's where we need it to be so what I need is a vote on recommending the ordinance with all the changes that were
shown today um to go to council you have the you have the original ordinance in your packet I have not made any changes but I didn't want to change it and then change it again yeah I think the only change was uh policy 3.2.5 regarding the business tax receipt
that's the only change striking that striking that last okay so someone make a motion and take this to council we need to be specific about that or just say changes ch ch noted and we'll know what that means and
the record shows that I I move that we accept the comprehensive plan with the changes addressed today and that we forward this to council for
approval okay have a second second okay I I think I think Lor be by just that much right all in favor I I okay that's it right do I have any other
motions I move that we adjourn okay can I have a second second all right all in favor I
