15 THE CHAIRMAN: They are very well aware
16 that we are taking action tonight.
17 And the Planning Department and the
18 Planning Commission were both not in favor of
19 this, and so I guess if you're voting to support
20 both the Planning Department and the commission,
21 you would vote no.

17 THE CHAIRMAN: The amendment's been moved
18 and seconded.
19 Can we hear what the amendment is, please.
20 MR. CROFTS: Yes, sir. The amendment is as
21 follows:
22 Condition number 1, "The development shall
23 be subject to the original legal description
24 dated May 30th, 2008."
25 Number 2, "The development shall be subject
Diane M.
Tropia,
23
1 to the original written description dated May
2 30th, 2008."
3 Number 3, "The development shall be subject
4 to the review and approval of the Development
5 Services Division, pursuant to their memorandum
6 dated June 19th, 2008, or as otherwise approved
7 by the Planning and Development Department."
8 Number 4, "There shall be a 20-foot
9 landscape buffer on the western property line
10 within the landscape buffer. East of the
11 existing brick wall an evergreen screen
12 consisting of 3.5-inch caliper, 65-gallon
13
14 shall be planted along the western property
15 line. Permitted trees include southern
16 magnolia, southern red cedar, and Nellie Stevens
17 holly."
18 Number 5, "There shall be one double-sided,
19 internally or externally-lit monument sign not
20 to exceed 15 feet in height and 50 square feet
21 in area along
22 minimum of 100 feet from the western boundary of
23 the property.
24 "There shall be one double-sided,
25 internally or externally-lighted monument sign
Diane M.

2 feet in area along
3 minimum of 100 feet from the western boundary of

12 verification of substantial compliance of the
13 PUD."
14 Number 7, "The development shall be subject
15 to the original site plan dated May 30th, 2008."
16 Thank you.
17 THE CHAIRMAN: I take it, Mr. Duggan, that
18 you're not in agreement with those conditions?
19 MR. DUGGAN: I just have to clarify one of
20 them, and then I'm going to propose two more,
21 actually.
22 The clarification has to do with condition
23 4, I believe it is, regarding the landscape --
24 required 20-foot landscape buffer.
25 At Planning Commission, it was agreed that
Diane M.
Tropia,
25
1 10 feet of that landscape buffer would be west
2 of the wall and 10 feet would be east of the
3 wall for a total of 20 feet, and so I would like
4 the written description -- the condition to be
5 written in a way that clarifies that.
6 So that was my first comment.
7 My next --
8 THE CHAIRMAN: Let's take these one at a
9 time.
10 MR. DUGGAN: Okay. Thank you.
11 THE CHAIRMAN: Planning Department.
12 MR. KELLY: Yeah, that was our intention
13 also, 10 feet on either side, so we can propose
14 some language to correct that.
15 THE CHAIRMAN:
16 captured?
17 MS. ELLER: I do.
18 THE CHAIRMAN: District Councilperson.
19 MR. HOLT: I agree.
20 THE CHAIRMAN: There you go.
21 MR. DUGGAN: My next -- thank you,
22 Mr. Chairman.
23 My next comment would be to propose a
24 condition that would prohibit some uses on the
25 property at the request of the district
Diane M.
Tropia,
26
1 councilman. However you want to word this, but
2 the prohibited uses on this parcel would be a
3 liquor store, a tattoo parlor, and an adult
4 novelty book store.
5 THE CHAIRMAN: Are we good,
6 MS. ELLER: (Nods head.)
7 THE CHAIRMAN: There you go. Very good.
8 MR. DUGGAN: And then, lastly, I would like
9 to include a condition that would revise some
10 language in the written description that would
11 allow whatever building is built on the property
12 to face west.
13 Currently, the written description provides
14 that the building would face north, east, or
15 south. We want to be -- we want to revise that
16 to allow it to provide -- to face west if the
17 ultimate user of the parcel desired that.
18 THE CHAIRMAN: Planning Department.
19 MR. KELLY: That was, I guess, an issue.
20 Their original written description just said it
21 would face north, south, or east.
22 We're not opposed to it necessarily facing
23 west given the buffering that's provided;
24 however, we would like to add a condition
25 additionally with regards to lighting just so
Diane M.
Tropia,
27
1 that there's a guarantee that it won't interfere
2 with the residential use.
3 They're not proposing any access off the
4 residential subdivision street, but they want
5 the building potentially to back up to the car
6 wash, which is to the east of them, and the
7 orientation -- I think we could support that
8 with the controls on the buffering and the
9 lighting.
10 THE CHAIRMAN: Mr. Duggan.
11 MR. DUGGAN: That would be acceptable, that
12 there would be no migration of light to the
13 residential parcel. That would be fine.
14 THE CHAIRMAN: Thank you.
15 Mr. Holt.
16 MR. HOLT: Yeah, that was just my question,
17 Mr. Chair, was the lighting. They want the
18 lighting to face inward to the property so as
19 not to bother the folks here in the
20 residential.
21 Okay. I support that. Thank you.
22 THE CHAIRMAN: Sounds like a win/win.
23
24 MS. ELLER: (Indicating.)
25 MR. KELLY: Do you want some language?
Diane M.
Tropia,
28
1 I was going to use the language from the
2
3 developer shall submit, at the time of
4 verification of substantial compliance, a
5 lighting plan, including fixture types and
6 footcandle illumination, for the review and
7 approval of Planning and Development.
8 THE CHAIRMAN: That's the amendment.

4 THE CHAIRMAN: Before you continue, are you
5 aware that we are planning on withdrawing this
6 bill today?
7 MS. VOLLRATH: No.
8 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay.
9 MS. VOLLRATH: I see it here, but I've
10 never been here before, so I'm not familiar with
11 how this works.
12 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay.
13 MS. VOLLRATH: So it is -- it's not going
14 to pass?
15 THE CHAIRMAN: We plan on withdrawing it
16 unless you say something convincing me, making
17 us not want to withdraw it.
18 MS. VOLLRATH: No. I'm thrilled.
19 Thank you.
20 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay. I just wanted to save
21 you the time.
22 MS. VOLLRATH: Oh, sure. I appreciate
23 that.
24 And you have to -- I have to apologize.
25 It's my first time here. I simply didn't know
Diane M.
Tropia,
31
1 what I needed to do.
2 THE CHAIRMAN: You're quite fine. I just
3 wanted to save you the heartache.
4 MS. VOLLRATH: Thank you.
5 THE CHAIRMAN: Hold on just a second,
6 ma'am.
7 MR. WEBB: (Inaudible.)
8 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay. If you'll just hold
9 on, the district councilperson wants to talk to
10 you in just a minute.
11 Seeing no other speakers, we'll close the
12 public hearing.
13 MR. JOOST: Move to withdraw.
14 MR. HOLT: Second.
15 THE CHAIRMAN: It's been moved and seconded
16 to withdraw, and we want to hear from the
17 district councilperson.
18 MR. WEBB: Thank you.
19 I do need to declare ex-parte on this even
20 though we are withdrawing it.
21 On August 14th, which was last Thursday, I
22 had a meeting with Justin Hart, who was the
23 developer, John Crofts, and other
24 representatives of the Planning Department
25 wherein we discussed withdrawal of this matter
Diane M.
Tropia,
32
1 or other legal complexities as well, and we --
2 it was determined to withdraw this bill.
3 Thank you.
4 THE CHAIRMAN: Thank you, Mr. Webb.

25 (Ms. Johnston approaches the podium.)
Diane M.
Tropia,
33
1 MS. JOHNSTON:
2 Riverplace Boulevard, on behalf of the
3 applicant.
4 This is a rezoning application off of
5 Spring
6 There's already six units existing.
7 This is a prime example of infill
8 development. We're exited about the project.
9 We've spoken with Mr. Redman about the project,
10 and we're agreeable to the conditions within the
11 staff report, assuming -- I need a clarification
12 on one of the conditions, so can we just talk
13 about that briefly with the Planning
14 Department?
15 THE CHAIRMAN: You want to do that after we
16 close the public hearing or do you want to do
17 that on the side?
18 MS. JOHNSTON: I guess we'll close the
19 public hearing.
20 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay. We'll close the
21 public hearing.
22 Someone move the amendment.
23 DR. GAFFNEY: Move the amendment.
24 MR. HOLT: Second.
25 THE CHAIRMAN: The amendment's been moved
Diane M.
Tropia,
34
1 and seconded.
2 Can we hear the amendment, please.
3 MR. CROFTS: The amendment is as follows:
4 Condition number 1, "The development shall
5 be subject to the original legal description
6 dated May 28th, 2008."
7 Number 2, "The development shall be subject
8 to the revised written description dated July
9 7th, 2008."
10 Number 3, "The development shall be subject
11 to the revised site plan dated July 23rd, 2008."
12 Number 4, "The development shall be subject
13 to the review and approval of the Development
14 Services Division, pursuant to their memorandum
15 dated June 23rd, 2008, or as otherwise approved
16 by the Planning and Development Department."
17 Number 5, "Ground-mounted or monument-style
18 signage shall be externally illuminated only."
19 Number 6 and finally, "Prior to the
20 verification of substantial compliance, the
21 developer shall submit architectural elevations
22 of both the townhome and condominium buildings
23 subject to the review and approval of the
24 Planning and Development Department."
25 That's it.
Diane M.
Tropia,
35
1 THE CHAIRMAN: Ms. Johnston.
2 MS. JOHNSTON: And my question has to do
3 with condition number 4, the traffic
4 memorandum.
5 I just wanted to clarify, my engineer,
6 David Touring, spoke with Lisa King last week
7 regarding her memorandum, and there's two items
8 within the memorandum that refer to -- the first
9 one is, "Spring
10 standard
11 number 4, "provide sidewalks in accordance with
12 the 2010 Comprehensive Plan."
13 When Mr. Touring spoke to Lisa King, she
14 confirmed for him that that only relates to the
15 portion of Spring
16 fronts because it looks as though the road
17 is already wide up until that point, and then
18 it's -- it looks like it gets much smaller.
19 So I wanted to confirm that the widening of
20 the road and the sidewalk requirements only
21 apply to that portion that -- that fronts the
22 property.
23 MR. KELLY: Through the Chair to the
24 applicant, yeah, they would not be responsible
25 for, obviously, improving or widening all of
Diane M.
Tropia,
36
1 Spring
2 fronts their property, to continue that portion
3 of right-of-way to a -- basically, they --
4 They would have to have a wide enough
5 road. It would have to meet a City standard
6 from the existing connection and how they tie
7 into that.
8 The sidewalks -- you know, it is all
9 subject to traffic engineering. They would have
10 to put a sidewalk along their frontage. We
11 would like the sidewalk, obviously, to tie into
12 an existing sidewalk, if possible, and I don't
13 know if that's achievable in this instance,
14 whether or not the subdivision immediately south
15 of there actually has a sidewalk or not.
16 MS. JOHNSTON: My engineer is indicating
17 that it does not.
18 MR. KELLY: I mean, I would just defer back
19 to the traffic engineer or the -- Lisa King,
20 Development Services memorandum. It's
21 approved -- or as otherwise approved by her, so
22 if they've met and discussed this issue, then
23 she'll see it in ten-set and be able to make
24 those adjustments.
25 THE CHAIRMAN: So we're good?
Diane M.
Tropia,
37
1 MS. JOHNSTON: I think so, yes.
2 THE CHAIRMAN: Mr. Redman, are we good?
3 MR. REDMAN: Yes.
4 You know, the only questions that I've had
5 and we've discussed is traffic on Spring Glen
6 Road from
7 has been some concern, but I -- I think that --
8 I think that it will work fine.
9 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay. Thank you, sir.
10 Mr. Joost.
11 MR. JOOST: I mean, are they going to get a
12 sidewalk or not?
13 MS. JOHNSTON: There would be the sidewalk
14 in front of the property.
15 MR. JOOST: So they're getting -- they're
16 going to get a sidewalk?
17 MR. KELLY: The -- yeah. The requirement
18 would be, regardless, to provide a sidewalk in
19 the existing right-of-way that they front, so it
20 would be -- they'd either be required to do that
21 or contribute into the sidewalk fund of Public
22 Works, and they basically utilize dollars for
23 sidewalk projects that would connect.
24 In this instance, they could have the
25 option to either build it or essentially pay
Diane M.
Tropia,
38
1 into the fund, and that's kind of the -- the
2 City's policy in regards to that.
3 MR. JOOST: Well, if they pay into the
4 fund, does that guarantee them a sidewalk there
5 or does the project go somewhere else, depending
6 on priority?
7 MR. KELLY: That -- right.
8 It wouldn't necessarily go there. We could
9 require that they build a sidewalk there, but
10 the lack of connectivity to another sidewalk and
11 whether or not there's a sidewalk eventually
12 that may be going down to
13 if that's proposed at some point in the future,
14 there would be, then, at least that connectivity
15 down to
16 but it --
17 It would be a little onerous of them to be
18 required, I think, to extend the sidewalk off
19 site, down to
20 their responsibility. So the City's policy is
21 either that they build it in the right-of-way
22 that they front -- if there's something that is
23 reasonable to connect to, then they can go
24 off site to some degree, based on the number of
25 units or number of lots, typically, with a
Diane M.
Tropia,
39
1 subdivision. Otherwise, they --
2 MR. JOOST: So what I'm hearing is they may
3 or may not get a sidewalk?
4 MR. KELLY: We can specifically require
5 them to -- we typically allow them the option,
6 so we can --
7 MR. JOOST: Well, is that -- I would go to
8 the district councilperson.
9 I mean, is that going to be a big deal to
10 the residents if they don't get a sidewalk?
11 MR. REDMAN: Through the Chair, the --
12 we're talking about a half a mile from that
13 point to
14 would be asking a bit much for them, to require
15 them to put a sidewalk from that point to Beach
16 Boulevard.
17 MS. JOHNSTON: I just want to clarify, we
18 don't have a problem with putting the sidewalk
19 in front of our property, but we wanted to make
20 clear that if -- we wanted to make clear whether
21 they were asking us to connect to the next
22 sidewalk, which, as Mr. Redman said, may be some
23 distance, and so we wanted to make sure that
24 that wasn't an obligation, that we have to
25 connect to the nearest sidewalk.
Diane M.
Tropia,
40
1 MR. JOOST: All right. Thank you.
2 THE CHAIRMAN: Mr. Redman, do you still
3 want to speak?
4 MR. REDMAN: No.
5 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay.
6 All right. So we're all good?
7 MS. JOHNSTON: Yes, sir.
8 THE CHAIRMAN: We're on the amendment.
9 All in favor of the amendment say aye.
10 COMMITTEE MEMBERS: Aye.
11 THE CHAIRMAN: Those opposed.
12 COMMITTEE MEMBERS: (No response.)

13 We'll continue the public hearing and take
14 no further action.
15 -518. Open the public hearing.
16 We'll continue. Take no further action.
17 2008-551 and -552. We'll open the public

Tropia,

1 record, and you have three minutes, ma'am.
2 AUDIENCE MEMBER: Alice Barrett, 1888
4 I'm just basically here if anyone has any
5 questions or if there was anybody opposing
6 anything.
7 THE CHAIRMAN: Looks like you're kind of
8 clear right now, but hold tight.
9 We'll close the public hearing.
10 MR. WEBB: Move the bill.
11 MR. CLARK: Second.
12 (Ms. Lahmeur confers with Chairman Graham.)
13 MR. KELLY: To the Chair, this is a
14 companion application with the next rezoning,
15 -544. I think we had a request for a deferral
16 for one cycle from the district councilmember.
17 THE CHAIRMAN: Now, what I got was a
18 request for -544, but not -543.
19 MS. ELLER: I think that was an error on
20 their part.
21 MR. KELLY: They're tied together. I think
22 he was looking at just the zoning, but the land
23 use and the zoning should go together.
24 THE CHAIRMAN: Okay. Ma'am, were you aware
25 that the district councilperson had asked for a
Diane M.
Tropia,
43
1 deferral?
2 MS. BARRETT: No.
3 Everything I knew was okay.
4 THE CHAIRMAN: Well, the district
5 councilperson had asked for a deferral. I got
6 the e-mail before coming down here, and I -- I
7 thought he had just asked for -544, but it seems
8 like he asked for both -544 and -543.
9 So I guess I would -- my suggestion would
10 be to contact Michael Corrigan, who is the
11 district councilperson out there, and find out
12 what it is that he's got questions about because
13 he said that he still had some things that he
14 wanted to look at, so he wanted -- asked us to
15 defer this bill.
16 MS. BARRETT: Okay. If we call his office,
17 will he actually talk to us for a change?
18 THE CHAIRMAN: Ma'am, all I can do is
19 suggest that you call his office.
20 MS. BARRETT: Okay. Thank you.
21 THE CHAIRMAN: All right.
22 Mr. Joost.
23 MR. JOOST: At the risk of asking a
24 question that doesn't make much sense, but I'm
25 going to, what's the purpose of the deferral if
Diane M.
Tropia,
44
1 we're not taking action tonight anyway and the
2 public hearing is continued in the future?
3 THE CHAIRMAN: Well, we were going to move
4 that bill today.
5 MR. JOOST: It just says open and continue,
6 no other action on my agenda.
7 (Ms. Lahmeur confers with Mr. Joost.)
8 MR. CLARK: I have the same thing.
9 THE CHAIRMAN: Gotcha.
10 MR. JOOST: All right. Never mind.
11 THE CHAIRMAN: I gotcha.
12 All right. So we will reopen that public
13 hearing and continue and take no further action,
14 and we will open the public hearing on -544 and
15 continue the public hearing and take no further
16 action.
17 Bottom of page 12. 2008-545. Open the

21 -604. We will open the public hearing.
22 We have Mr. Harden.
23 (Mr. Harden approaches the podium.)
24 THE CHAIRMAN: Welcome, sir.
25 MR. HARDEN: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Diane M.
Tropia,
48
1 Paul Harden,
2 Maybe to save some time, this bill is the
3 start of five pages of settlement agreements and
4 remedial legislation arising out of the fall
5 2007 comp plan series.
6 The Department of Community Affairs
7 objected to a whole slew of amendments by the
8 City, generally based on traffic methodology
9 issues.
10 Over the last almost eight months in
11 negotiations between the landowners and the DCA
12 and in cooperation -- or the City and the DCA,
13 in cooperation with the landowners, there have
14 been agreements made -- settlement agreements
15 made with the Department of Community Affairs.
16 Generally speaking, what the settlements do
17 is put an asterisk on the map -- the comp plan
18 map, which limits the development on the site,
19 notwithstanding the land use designation, so
20 that there are not traffic -- there are not
21 traffic impacts in excess of what our current
22 Capital Improvement Element will cure.
23 So you have a settlement agreement --
24 entering into that agreement, and then you have
25 a companion piece of legislation which
Diane M.
Tropia,
49
1 implements that settlement agreement. This goes
2 all the way through number 78 on the agenda, and
3 they're all settlement agreements and the
4 companion rezonings.
5 This happens to be one out on the Westside
6 which caps the number of square feet in a
7 commercial use so that the Capital Improvement
8 Element takes care of any traffic impacts using
9 the DCA methodology.
10 So rather than go through that on each one,
11 unless there's any questions, I'll stand by.

12 THE CHAIRMAN: By your action, you have
13 approved -604.
14 Top of page 17. -605. We'll open the
15 public hearing.
16 MR. HARDEN: This is the companion remedial
17 amendment for -604.
18 THE CHAIRMAN: Any questions?
19 MR. JOOST: I have one.
20 THE CHAIRMAN: Sure. Go ahead.
21 Mr. Joost.
22 MR. JOOST: What is -- is there any
23 monetary amounts involved here or are these
24 just --
25 MR. HARDEN: All -- Councilman Joost,
Diane M. Tropia, P.O. Box 2375, Jacksonville, FL 32203
51
1 that's really kind of a separate issue to these
2 pieces of legislation, but, yes, every one of
3 these rezonings -- land use map amendments, also
4 has a companion fair share agreement whereby the
5 developer or landowner has entered into a fair
6 share agreement with the City to repair the
7 links that were down.
8 Now, what happened was, using some of those
9 fair share dollars, there were items, there were
10 road links that were identified in the Capital
11 Improvement Element that we didn't have in
12 there. But now with the combination of City
13 dollars, regular dollars, State dollars, and
14 fair share dollars there was enough money to put
15 that in the Capital Improvement Element so that
16 it's in a financially-feasible period of time.
17 This one has a specific fair share which is,
18 like, five or six million bucks.
19 So the -- yeah, most of them have fair
20 shares. It's an unrelated activity. Most of
21 the fair shares have already been approved by
22 the council.
23 MR. JOOST: Okay. Thank you.
24 THE CHAIRMAN: Ms. Eller.
25 MS. ELLER: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Diane M. Tropia, P.O. Box 2375, Jacksonville, FL 32203
52
1 Also, to Mr. Joost, the settlements don't
2 cost the City anything. There's no dollar
3 amount attached to any legal fees or any cash
4 changing hands when we settled the lawsuits with
5 DCA.
6 THE CHAIRMAN: The only thing it costs us
7 is your time.
8 MR. KELLY: Correct.
9 MS. ELLER: Correct.
10 THE CHAIRMAN: Anything else?
11 MR. JOOST: (Inaudible.)
12 MR. HARDEN: Do you want me to respond to
13 that?
14 THE CHAIRMAN: Go ahead.
15 MR. HARDEN: Yeah, it actually -- actually,
16 the fair shares, generally, Councilman Joost,
17 are in effect.
18 Typically, a fair share agreement is going
19 to have a cap on it, on the number of square
20 feet. So what you will generally see is the
21 number of square feet that is capped by the
22 asterisk on the remedial legislation matches up
23 to the number in the fair share that you did a
24 year or so ago.
25 So -- because the Department of Community
Diane M. Tropia, P.O. Box 2375, Jacksonville, FL 32203
53
1 Affairs is -- we're just looking at the land
2 use. We're not looking at the zoning. The PUD
3 on the site might limit it to 100,000 square
4 feet of commercial, but what they do is they
5 look at it and say, well, it's 20 acres. You
6 might can put 500,000 square feet. So the
7 asterisk caps the number of square feet within
8 the classification, and there's a matching
9 number in the fair share that limits it to that
10 use as well.
11 And some of them are residential, some of
12 them are commercial, so the -- it's either
13 square feet or number of dwelling units.
14 THE CHAIRMAN: Are you good?
15 MR. JOOST: (Nods head.)
16 THE CHAIRMAN: All right. Thank you,
17 Mr. Harden.
18 We'll close that public hearing.
