[IV. ANNOUNCEMENTS / PRESENTATIONS:]

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

LET ME GUESS YOUR GROWING PLANTS ON MARS SOON SUED.

THANK THANK YOU FOR HAVING US AGAIN THIS YEAR.

IT'S REALLY NICE TO BE BACK IN PERSON TO SEE YOU.

I KNOW WE HAVE SOME A PDF THAT WE HAD SENT IN TODAY.

WE'D LIKE TO SHARE A FEW SLIDES WITH YOU.

GOOD EVENING, AND THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO PRESENT.

MY NAME IS KEVIN SIMMONS.

SIX YEARS AGO AT WEIS WITH ABOUT FOUR KIDS, WE STARTED.

FAST FORWARD TO TODAY, WHERE AN LLC, A NONPROFIT, A 501 C THREE, WE WITH FORTY KIDS HERE IN FLORIDA AND KIDS IN OTHER STATES, AND WE TRAVEL THE WORLD PRESENTING.

JUST WANT TO SHARE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE WOLFPACK CUBESAT DEVELOPMENT TEAM, WHICH IS BASED HERE IN PALM BEACH GARDENS.

SO THE ENTIRE FOCUS WAS TO TEACH YOUNG PEOPLE HOW TO BE COMPETENT AND CAPABLE AND WORK IN INDUSTRY, ESPECIALLY IN AEROSPACE, BECAUSE THERE ARE NO LOW PAYING JOBS IN AEROSPACE RIGHT NOW. IT'S A GOOD CAREER.

SO HERE YOU CAN SEE THE TEAMS THAT WERE FORMED.

WE ACTUALLY HELPED THE VERY FIRST TEAM FROM NEBRASKA BE SELECTED BY NASA, AND THAT WAS VERY PRESTIGIOUS. WE'RE PROUD OF THAT.

YOU CAN SEE THE LOGOS.

THESE WERE DESIGNED BY STUDENTS.

THESE ARE OUR MISSIONS.

THE THREE ON THE RIGHT ARE TO THIS YEAR'S SATELLITE MISSIONS.

WE ARE NO LONGER AT WEIS.

WE ARE EMBRACING KIDS IN PALM BEACH COUNTY THAT WANT TO BE A PART OF OUR TEAM.

WE HAVE QUITE A FEW FROM PALM BEACH GARDENS, SO WE TRAINED THE KIDS, OF COURSE, WITH HIGH ALTITUDE BALLOONS.

I WOULD LOVE TO FIND THE RIGHT PERSON TO GET PERMISSION TO LAUNCH FROM THE BALL FIELD SOMETIME. OUR BALLOONS END UP IN THE CARIBBEAN, OR EVEN AS FAR AS WE WERE 600 MILES FROM MOROCCO WITH ONE OF OUR BALLOONS.

WE HAVE BOYS, THEY FLOAT IN THE OCEAN AND WE TRACK THEM.

SO THIS IS A GREAT WAY. WE TRAIN THE KIDS ABOUT THE SATELLITES.

HERE WAS, OF COURSE, OUR FIRST SATELLITE THAT LAUNCHED A FEW YEARS AGO.

THOSE STUDENTS ARE DOING REAL WELL IN HIGH SCHOOL NOW, AND HERE IS OUR SECOND SATELLITE THAT'S SCHEDULED TO FLY LATER NEXT YEAR.

AND OF COURSE, OUR OLDER KIDS WANT TO BE THE FIRST STUDENTS IN THE WORLD TO PUT A ROVER ON THE MOON, AND THESE ARE TWO OF OUR POSSIBLE RIDES.

AND THAT BRINGS ME TO THE STUDENT PORTION.

MY JOB IS TO INTRODUCE THE KIDS AND GET OUT OF THE WAY AND LET THEM SHARE WITH YOU WHAT WE'RE DOING. SO IT'S MY PRIVILEGE TO INTRODUCE SEBASTIAN.

GOOD EVENING, MY NAME IS SEBASTIAN TRIMBLE.

I'M 12 YEARS OLD AND I'M IN SIXTH GRADE.

TODAY, I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU ABOUT THE SPACE CLUB HOSTED BY AEROSPACE AND INNOVATION ACADEMY.

HERE I'VE LEARNED SOME VERY INTERESTING THINGS, SUCH AS AEROSPACE AERODYNAMICS, BURNLEY'S PRINCIPAL AND I ALSO LOOK FORWARD TO LEARNING ABOUT THE ARTEMUS MISSIONS.

THE FIRST COHORT OF THE SPACE CLUB WAS HOSTED FROM JANUARY TO APRIL OF THIS YEAR.

THE SECOND COHORT, WHICH IS STILL ONGOING, IS FROM AUGUST TO DECEMBER, AND THE THIRD COHORT, WHICH WILL BE HOSTED FROM JANUARY TO APRIL, WILL BE NEXT YEAR.

[00:05:04]

THANK YOU. HI, I AM JEANNIE VITO'S A SEVENTH GRADER AT THE WHITE SCHOOL.

CAN YOU PLEASE SPEAK CLOSER TO THE MICROPHONE? OK, THANK YOU.

HI, I AM JEANNIE VITO'S, A SEVENTH GRADER AT THE HIGH SCHOOL SCHOOL HERE IN PALM BEACH GARDENS UNDER THE NASSAU CUBESAT LAUNCH INITIATIVE.

AND NOW WE'RE WORKING ON WRITING PROPOSALS TO NASA.

NEXT UP IS EVA TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE OUTREACH.

THANK YOU, DANNY.

SO I AM A SEVENTH GRADER AT THE WHITE SCHOOL AND THE AND SORRY, THERE'S AN OUTREACH GROUP OF THE WOLFPACK THAT IS WORKING ON CONNECTING WITH YOUNGER STUDENTS AS AS I'M SURE YOU KNOW, THE STEM IDENTITY FORMS VERY, VERY YOUNG, SO IT IS CRUCIAL TO REACH STUDENTS AT THIS TIME. AND THANKS TO OUR OUTREACH GROUP, WE HAVE CREATED AN ACTIVITY BOOK SITE COLORING BOOK, WHICH IS GIVEN OUT AT LOCAL EXPOS THAT MEMBERS ATTEND.

FOR EXAMPLE, ENGINEER AT STEM FEST AS WELL AS OTHERS.

AND WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON A CHILDREN'S BOOK, WHICH IS CREATED BY STUDENTS, AUTHORED BY STUDENTS AND ILLUSTRATED BY STUDENTS.

SO IT'S CREATED COMPLETELY BY THE OUTREACH BRANCH, AND IT IS DESIGNED FOR STUDENTS IN OTHER STATES. SO FOR USE IN THE CLASSROOM, BASICALLY, AND OUR TEACHERS MR. KEVIN SIMMONS AND MS. SEAN CHRISTIANSON HAVE CREATED A HOW TO BOOK FOR OTHER EDUCATORS.

AND NEXT UP IS AUDIO TO DISCUSS CONFERENCES.

HI, I'M ARDEA AND I'M A 12TH GRADE STUDENT AT WILLIAM T.

DWYER HIGH SCHOOL HERE IN PALM BEACH GARDENS, AND ANOTHER THING THAT WE DO WITH THE AIEA IS PARTICIPATING IN CONFERENCES, WHETHER THEY'RE LOCAL, NATIONAL OR EVEN INTERNATIONAL.

WE SUBMIT ABSTRACTS OF MORE TECHNICAL PAPERS TO THESE CONFERENCES AND HOPEFULLY WE GET SELECTED TO WRITE A PAPER AND THEN PRESENT THEM.

OUR MOST RECENT CONFERENCE THAT WE ATTENDED WAS THE INTERNATIONAL ASTRONAUTICAL CONGRESS, WHICH ACTUALLY JUST HAPPENED LAST WEEK IN DUBAI.

WE HAD SIX PAPERS BEING PRESENTED AND I WAS ON THE TEAM OF ONE OF THEM WHERE WE PRESENTED ABOUT LUNAR DUST MITIGATION ON SPACECRAFT IN A LOW GRAVITY FREE FALL ENVIRONMENT WHERE WE BASICALLY TALKED ABOUT THE PROBLEMS THAT FACE LUNAR DUST BECAUSE OF ITS IONIC CHARGES.

AND WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT THE MARS ROVER, WHICH MR. SIMMONS WAS JUST TALKING TO YOU ABOUT IN THE FUTURE.

WE PLAN ON PARTICIPATING IN EVEN MORE CONFERENCES UPCOMING FOR NEXT YEAR IN JANUARY IS THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON EDUCATION, AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE SEVEN PAPERS BEING PRESENTED THERE. AND AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE SO MANY MORE CONFERENCES, WHETHER THEY'RE INTERNATIONAL, LOCAL OR EVEN JUST NATIONAL HAPPENING IN THE FUTURE.

AND TO SUMMARIZE, HERE'S MR. SIMMONS. APOLOGIES.

THAT REALLY CONCLUDES THE PRESENTATION, IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS, I ENJOY A CHANCE FOR THE KIDS TO ANSWER THEM.

IF YOU HAVE ANY AND THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR TIME.

ANYBODY HAVE MARKED YOU? WELL, NO WAY CAN I ASK A QUESTION THAT'S GOING TO ACTUALLY BE A PART OF THE RESEARCH THAT YOU'RE DOING, BUT NO, THE CHILDREN ARE COMING FROM VARIOUS SCHOOLS.

IT'S NO LONGER JUST. SO CAN YOU GIVE US A LITTLE BIT OF A RUNDOWN ON WHERE THE KIDS ARE COMING FROM? ABSOLUTELY.

CV IS HOME SCHOOLED.

WE HAVE WILLIAM T. DWYER.

WE HAVE STUDENTS IN SUNCOAST AMERICAN HERITAGE.

WE ACTUALLY HAVE STUDENTS FROM HAWAII THAT WE WORK WITH THAT HAVE A GROUND STATION THAT WE'RE HOPING TO TALK TO WITH ONE OF OUR RADIOS IN THE FUTURE.

WE HAVE STUDENTS THAT ATTEND OUR WOLFPACK MEETINGS FROM FORT MYERS, FROM DIFFERENT PLACES IN FLORIDA. WE HAVE HAD STUDENTS FROM PENNSYLVANIA, NORTH CAROLINA AND NORTHERN VIRGINIA.

WE HAVE ONE YOUNG MAN FROM ILLINOIS OUTSIDE CHICAGO, SO WE ACCEPT, YOU KNOW, THE BEAUTIFUL THING ABOUT COVID IS BECAUSE WE HAD TO PIVOT AND WE'RE ON ZOOM.

WHY NOT MAKE THE TENT A LITTLE BIGGER AND BRING IN ANYONE THAT CAN JOIN SO YOU'RE NOT LIMITED BY YOUR FOLKS ABILITY TO DRIVE YOU TO WHEREVER WE MEET? SO THAT'S KIND OF A GOAL THAT YOU HAD WHEN YOU WERE AT WEIS WAS TO TRY TO FIND A WAY TO

[00:10:01]

SO CONGRATULATIONS, AND I WANT TO THANK YOU BECAUSE YOU WERE ONE OF OUR BROWN BAG LUNCH SPEAKERS. SO THAT'S RIGHT.

BUT THANK YOU. YES, WE WELCOME KIDS FROM ALL OVER AND WE THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY AND WE HOPE WE CAN PARTNER WITH YOU IN SOME WAY IN THE FUTURE.

WE'D WE'D LIKE TO TAKE A PICTURE, AND I WANTED TO ASK, WHERE IS YOUR FUNDING CURRENTLY COMING FROM? THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

WE'RE RAISING OUR OWN MONEY.

ONCE WE STARTED OUR 501C3, WE HAVE DONATIONS FROM A SMALL ONE FROM MY CUBESAT.

MR. CHRISTIANSON SEAN HAS A GRANT FROM FLORIDA SPACE GRANT CONSORTIUM.

WE HAD SOME MONEY THERE, WONDERFUL, SOME FOLKS RAISING MONEY, BUT WE JUST FOUND OUT THAT THE FLORIDA SPACE GRANT CONSORTIUM IS GIVING US TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS THIS YEAR FOR OUR FUTURE HARDWARE, SO THAT'S A BIG WIN.

SO WOLFPACK, KIDS COME ON UP.

I'M GOING TO BRING ALL THE KIDS THAT ARE HERE, OKAY? ALL THE.

SEE IF YOU COULD DO IT NEXT WEEKEND AND SIMM INSTEAD OF.

YOU CAN SEE. EVERYTHING.

YOU PROBABLY HAVE.

LITT.

OH, I THINK NOW I'D LIKE TO CALL CHIEF SHANNON TO THE PODIUM PLACE.

GOOD EVENING, MADAME MAYOR, VICE MAYOR, COUNCIL MEMBERS.

TOUGH ACT TO FOLLOW, I ALREADY WARNED MY GUYS WHAT WAS COMING BEFORE HIM WITH THE INTELLIGENCE LEVEL THERE IS, I THINK A COUPLE OF MY GUYS WERE HOME SCHOOLED, RIGHT? THIS ONE RIGHT HERE. BUT THAT'S AN IMPRESSIVE GROUP.

AND NOW I'LL INTRODUCE YOU TO ANOTHER IMPRESSIVE GROUP.

THIS IS OUR ARE MOSTLY MEMBERS OF OUR TRAFFICKING.

IF YOU GUYS CAN COME UP AND JUST LINE UP HERE, SOMEWHERE BEHIND ME WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THERE'S THE. THE PRESTIGIOUS FLORIDA LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAFFIC SAFETY CHALLENGE RECOGNIZES THE BEST OVERALL TRAFFIC SAFETY PROGRAMS IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA.

THIS INCLUDES THE DEPARTMENT'S EFFORTS TO ENFORCE TRAFFIC SAFETY LAWS AND REDUCE THE PUBLIC ABOUT TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT DISTRACTIVE AND IMPAIRED DRIVING, MOTORCYCLE SAFETY, OCCUPANT PROTECTION, CHILD PASSENGER SAFETY, PEDESTRIAN OR BICYCLE SAFETY SPEED AND AGGRESSIVE DRIVING AND OTHER ISSUES THAT IMPACT THE SAFETY OF ROADWAY USERS.

THE TRAFFIC SAFETY CHALLENGE SUPPORTS THE DEPARTMENT'S GOALS OF ENFORCEMENT AND TRAFFIC SAFETY LAWS TO REDUCE TRAFFIC CRASHES, SERIOUS INJURIES AND FATALITIES.

THE PALM BEACH GARDENS POLICE DEPARTMENT WAS RECOGNIZED AS THE TWO THOUSAND AND TWENTY FIRST PLACED WINNERS IN THE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF FLORIDA OF SIMILAR SIZE.

THIS RECOGNITION INCLUDES NOT ONLY THE TRAFFIC IN IT, BUT OFFICERS FROM WITHIN ALL AREAS OF OUR DEPARTMENT THAT PROVIDE TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT THROUGHOUT THE CITY, AS WELL AS THE SUPERVISORS THAT ENCOURAGE AND PROVIDE THE TRAINING AND EQUIPMENT NECESSARY FOR KEEPING OUR CITIZENS SAFE ON OUR ROADWAYS.

BELOW IT, IT'S THESE ARE SOME OF THE THE THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF MAINLY OF OF OF THESE

[00:15:01]

AGAIN, IT'S THEY'RE RECOGNIZED BY THE STATE.

THIS IS A VERY, VERY CHALLENGING PROGRAM AND IT'S EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE THROUGHOUT THE STATE. AS YOU KNOW, I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYWHERE I GO WHERE I DON'T GET THE MAIN COMPLAINTS ARE ALL ABOUT TRAFFIC IN OUR SEAT.

AND IT'S AS WE KNOW IT'S NOT GETTING ANY BETTER.

SO THE THE JOB THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM PERFORMS AS IS IS VITAL TO OUR CITY COMPLETELY SO.

BUT WITH SOME OF THEM, SOME OF THEM HAVE SPECIALTIES, BUT THEY ALL DO TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT. SOME OF THEM DO IMPAIRMENT, ENFORCEMENT, TRAFFIC, HOMICIDE.

SO THEY THEY HIT EVERY ANGLE ON TRAFFIC ISSUES THROUGHOUT THE CITY.

AND WITH WITH THIS PRESTIGIOUS AWARD, WE COULDN'T BE PROUDER TAKING FIRST PLACE AS A BIG DEAL. I GOT CALLS FROM ME AND MY FRIENDS THROUGHOUT THE STATE CONGRATULATING US THAT WERE COMPETITIVE IN THIS FIELD TOO.

SO AGAIN, WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE COULD HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE FINE WORK DONE BY THE POLICE DEPARTMENT BEFORE YOU TONIGHT AND AGAIN.

AND THANK YOU ALWAYS FOR YOUR FOR YOUR SUPPORT BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITHOUT THAT AND THANK YOU TO ON TO.

THANK YOU FOR KEEPING US SAFE.

WE WANT A PHOTO. I THINK MARK WANTED TO WRITE.

SARGE, SARGE, ONCE SARGE, SERGEANT MAL, YOU ONCE HAVE A WORD OR TWO.

SURE. THE GROUP YOU SEE HERE IS AN OUTSTANDING GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS WHO CONTRIBUTE EVERY DAY. THEY COME TO WORK EVERY DAY.

LOOKING FORWARD TO, YOU KNOW, NOT NECESSARILY GOING OUT AND WRITING TICKETS, BUT GOING OUT AND BEING OF A SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE, WHETHER IT'S THE SCHOOL ZONES AND THE CROSSWALKS.

EVERY MORNING, YOU CAN SEE THEM OUT WITH THE CROSSING GUARDS ASSISTING IN THOSE AREAS OR, YOU KNOW, BICYCLISTS THAT ARE RIDING IN THE ROADWAY, EDUCATING THEM, YOU KNOW, WITH EVERYTHING THAT THE AMOUNT OF VEHICLES ON THE ROADWAY NOW PEDESTRIANS AND BICYCLE IS REALLY, YOU KNOW, TAKE THEIR LIFE IN THEIR OWN HAND WHEN THEY DECIDE TO RIDE IN THE ROAD.

BUT WE DO WHAT WE CAN TO SLOW PEOPLE DOWN THE COMMUNITY.

I'M PROUD OF THESE GUYS. THEY WORK HARD EVERY SINGLE DAY WHENEVER THEY'RE CALLED UPON.

THEY'RE ANXIOUS TO GO AND SERVE AND THEY'RE ANXIOUS TO BE THERE.

AND THE CHIEF HAS JUST BEEN THE BIGGEST SUPPORTER OF US ALL, YOU KNOW, GIVING US THE EQUIPMENT, GIVING US THE PERSONNEL IN THE UNIT AND JUST BEING SUPPORTIVE AND ALL THAT WE DO AND GOOD TO HIM AND SAY, HEY, WE WANT TO TRY THIS.

HE'S LIKE, LET'S SEE IF IT WORKS AND WE'RE GOOD TO GO.

BUT BUT THANK YOU.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT.

MR. FERRIS MS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND CHIEF.

WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. AND.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

BUT I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU ONE OF THE QUESTIONS OVER THERE.

OH YEAH. YOU TRYING TO SAY THAT THEY DON'T EVEN GET ALONG? NO, I DON'T. THAT'S RIGHT.

WE'LL BE WE'LL BE PROVIDING ALL THE ELECTED OFFICIALS WITH A COPY OF THIS PHOTO.

WE ADVISE YOU TO CARRY IT AROUND IN YOUR CAR AT ALL TIMES WHEN YOU'RE IN THE CITY.

AND JUST MAYBE, JUST MAYBE IT'LL CARRY SOME WEIGHT.

I THINK HE WAS ALREADY READY.

I'M GOING TO ASK YOU NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT, YOU DON'T WANT TO WATCH ON, THEY DROP OUT.

[00:20:01]

[V. COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC:]

STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.

HI, MY NAME IS ADRIENNE PUGH 19, NINE OH TWO SOUTHEAST GALBRAITH DRIVE, JUPITER, FLORIDA.

I'D LIKE TO THANK THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS FOR PROCLAIMING NOVEMBER TO BE FAMILY COURT AWARENESS MONTH AND EXPLAIN WHY THIS IS SUCH AN IMPORTANT ISSUE IN OUR COMMUNITIES.

I AM A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SURVIVOR, A PROTECTIVE MOTHER AND A BOARD MEMBER OF FACTS FAMILIES AGAINST COURT TRAVESTIES.

IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO ENSURING THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE CHILD PREVAIL IN FAMILY COURT, AND THAT DUE PROCESS AND EQUITY ARE COMMON PRACTICE FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS. OUR VOLUNTEER MEMBERS HAVE BEEN CAUGHT WATCHING IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DIVORCE AND CHILD CUSTODY AND DEPENDENCY COURT CASES.

WE OFTEN WITNESS UNJUST, UNFAIR AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL PRACTICES IN THESE CASES, AS WELL AS A LACK OF COMMON SENSE BY COURT OFFICIALS WHEN ANY FORM OF ABUSE IS ALLEGED.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS ABOUT POWER AND CONTROL.

THAT DESIRE TO MAINTAIN POWER AND CONTROL DOESN'T MYSTERIOUSLY VANISH WHEN THE RELATIONSHIP ENDS, ESPECIALLY WHEN CHILDREN ARE INVOLVED.

WHEN YOU ARE COURT ORDERED TO ATTEMPT TO CO-PARENT WITH YOUR ABUSER, THE FAMILY COURT SYSTEM BECOMES THE NEW PLATFORM FOR ABUSE, AND THE CHILDREN EITHER BECOME PAWNS OR NEW TARGETS. MOST WOULD BE SHOCKED TO KNOW THAT IN MOST STATES, FAMILY COURT JUDGES PRESIDE WITH ZERO TRAINING AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, CHILD ABUSE, CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE, CHILDHOOD TRAUMA OR COERCIVE CONTROL IF THEY HAVE ANY TRAINING.

IT'S TYPICALLY VERY MINIMAL.

EARLIER THIS YEAR, A FOUR YEAR OLD BOY NAMED GRAYSON KESSLER FROM BROWARD COUNTY WAS SHOT AND KILLED BY HIS BIOLOGICAL FATHER DURING A COURT ORDERED VISIT.

DESPITE HIS FATHER'S HISTORY OF ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR AND HIS MOTHER, HIS MOTHER, ALLIE KESSLER'S PLEAS TO THE COURT TO PROTECT HIM.

WHILE THIS IS THE ULTIMATE TRAGEDY, FEX HAS WITNESSED MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS OF FAMILY COURTS IGNORING A PROTECTIVE PARENT'S PLEAS TO PREVENT THEIR CHILDREN FROM BEING COURT ORDERED INTO ABUSIVE SITUATIONS.

FACTS IS VERY PROUD TO COLLABORATE WITH ONE MOMS BATTLE JUSTICE FOR GRAYSON.

THE FAMILY COURT AWARENESS MONTH COMMITTEE AND A VARIETY OF OTHER NATIONAL ORGANIZATION ORGANIZATIONS ALL FOCUSED ON BRINGING AWARENESS AND EVENTUALLY CHANGING THESE FAMILY COURT PRACTICES THAT ENABLE ABUSERS AND DO NOT PROTECT VICTIMS. OUR CHILDREN'S LIVES ARE LITERALLY DEPENDING ON THE COURTS BECOMING EDUCATED ON THESE ISSUES. I'M GRATEFUL TO THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS FOR JOINING THE LIST OF COUNTLESS CITIES, COUNTIES AND STATES THAT HAVE PROCLAIMED NOVEMBER AS FAMILY COURT AWARENESS MONTH. THANK YOU FOR STANDING WITH US TO RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE, THE IMPORTANCE OF A COURT SYSTEM THAT PRIORITIZES CHILD SAFETY AND TAKES ABUSE CLAIMS SERIOUSLY.

SORRY. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. I HAVE NO OTHER COMMENT CARD, SO NEXT WOULD BE THE CITY MANAGER'S REPORT. RON, DO YOU HAVE A REPORT OR ANNOUNCEMENTS?

[VI. CITY MANAGER REPORT:]

COUNCIL MEMBER. JUST SIMM ANNOUNCEMENTS HERE ABOUT SOME OF OUR COMMUNITY EVENTS DUE TO UNFORTUNATELY DUE TO THE WEATHER PREDICTION TOMORROW FOR 90 PERCENT THUNDERSTORMS. WE'VE HAD TO MOVE OUR FRIDAY'S GOLFING EVENT, LADIES NINE WINE DINE IN THE MIX REPORT GRIPPANT AND SIP AT GOLF PROJECT.

SO WE'RE WORKING WITH THE COUNTY TRYING TO GET THAT DONE.

SO I JUST WANTED TO BRING THOSE ANNOUNCEMENTS AND CHANGES FOR EVERYONE'S INFORMATION.

AND WITH THAT, I CONCLUDE MY REPORT.

THANK YOU. AND WHILE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ALL THE WONDERFUL ACTIVITIES HERE AT THE CITY, I WANTED TO THANK PATTI AND HER AMAZING TEAM FOR OUR LEAGUE OF CITIES LUNCHEON THAT WAS HOSTED AT THE SANTO CRANE GOLF COURSE LAST WEEK.

OUR FOOD, OUR FACILITY, WE ARE THE ENVY OF THE COUNTY.

PEOPLE COULD NOT STOP TALKING ABOUT IT.

THEY WERE BREAKING DOWN THE LINE TO GET AT THOSE DESSERTS BEFORE THE STAFF WAS READY, BUT ONLY ONLY GOOD THINGS.

SO THANK YOU FOR ALL THE HARD WORK THAT WHEN IT WAS A TRUE TEAM EFFORT FROM SEVERAL DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS. THANK YOU AND I'LL PASS THAT ALONG.

THANK YOU TO ABBY PACHECO.

OH YEAH, THE PRESS ECHO.

YEAH. COOL.

OK. MM HMM.

SO NEXT IS THE CONSENT AGENDA ANYONE PULLING.

[VII. CONSENT AGENDA:]

THE FAMILY COURT AWARENESS MONTH.

I DON'T NEED TO READ IT, BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE APPRECIATE YOU COMING TONIGHT AND TELLING US YOUR STORY, AND WE'RE REALLY PROUD TO BE REPRESENTING ON THIS PROCLAMATION. SO THANK YOU.

AND I'M GOING TO PULL PROCLAMATION H HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS WEEK, SO I WILL NEED A MOTION AND A SECOND TO PROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA MINUS G AND H O MAKE A MOTION APPROVED MINUS G AND H O SECOND O IN FAVOR.

ALL RIGHT. AND THE OPPOSED MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO.

OK, NOW I NEED A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE G.

[Item VII. g. PROCLAMATION – FAMILY COURT AWARENESS MONTH.]

SECOND. A MOTION IN A SECOND.

ALL IN FAVOR. I I.

ANY OPPOSED MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO AND I WOULD LIKE TO READ PROCLAMATION

[VII. h. PROCLAMATION – HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS WEEK.]

YOU HAVE A COPY WHERE RIGHT HERE THAT.

[00:30:06]

AND WHEREAS THE PALM BEACH COUNTY TWENTY TWENTY HOMELESS POINT IN TIME COUNT IDENTIFIED ONE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND TEN INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS, AND THE PALM BEACH COUNTY HUNGER RELIEF PLAN INDICATES THAT MORE THAN 300000 RESIDENTS STRUGGLE WITH HUNGER, WHEREAS THE PURPOSE OF HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS MONTH IS TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT THE MANY REASONS PEOPLE ARE HUNGRY AND HOMELESS, INCLUDING THE SHORTAGE OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN PALM BEACH COUNTY FOR VERY LOW INCOME RESIDENTS, AND TO ENCOURAGE SUPPORT FOR HOMELESS ASSISTANCE SERVICE PROVIDERS, AS WELL AS COMMUNITY SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS AND SCHOOL SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS.

AND WHEREAS THE PALM BEACH COUNTY HOMELESS ADVISORY BOARD HAS DEVELOPED LEADING THE WAY HOME, A ROBUST 10 YEAR PLAN DESIGNED AS THE NEXT PHASE OF ENDING HOMELESSNESS IN PALM BEACH COUNTY. AND WHEREAS THE INTENT OF HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS WEEK IS CONSISTENT WITH THE ACTIVITIES OF THE HOMELESS ADVISORY BOARD, THE HOMELESS COALITION, HOMELESS AND HOUSING ALLIANCE, PALM BEACH COUNTY FOOD BANK, THE LORD'S PLACE GULFSTREAM GOODWILL INDUSTRIES ADOPT TO FAMILY AND OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS IN PALM BEACH COUNTY.

NOW, THEREFORE, I RACHELLE A LITT BY VIRTUE OF THE AUTHORITY VESTED IN ME AS MAYOR OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, DO HEREBY PROCLAIM THAT THE WEEK OF NOVEMBER 13TH TO 21ST 2021 IN PALM BEACH COUNTY AS HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS WEEK.

SO CAN I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE H? I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE PROCLAMATION H.

SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR OF MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO.

AND THE REASONS THAT I PULLED AND READ THIS PROCLAMATION TONIGHT IS ACTUALLY TWOFOLD.

FIRST, I HAD THE HONOR TO ATTEND THE RIBBON CUTTING YESTERDAY MORNING AT PALM BEACH STATE, PALM BEACH GARDENS CAMPUS, PANTHERS CLOSET AND PANTHERS PANTRY WITH VICE MAYOR REED. THIS NEW RESOURCE AT THE CAMPUS PROVIDES FOOD AND CLOTHING TO STUDENTS AND FACULTY WHO ARE FOOD AND CLOTHING INSECURE AND HELPS STUDENTS LOOK THEIR BEST FOR JOB INTERVIEWS.

IT'S RUN BY THE HONORS COLLEGE STUDENTS AND IS OPERATED BY VOLUNTEER FACULTY AND STUDENTS. THEY ARE ACCEPTING DONATIONS AND THEY ARE.

THERE ARE FLIERS ON THE TABLE FOR MORE INFORMATION IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED.

I KNOW WE HAVE UNDRESS HERE FROM PALM BEACH STATE, FROM THE SGA TODAY, BUT THEY REALLY IT'S AN AMAZING PLACE.

IT'S BOTH A PANTRY AND A CLOTHING CLOSET.

SO THE SECOND REASON I PULLED IT IS IN SUPPORT OF HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS WEEK.

I ASKED THE CITY MANAGER IF THERE WAS ANY WAY THAT WE COULD ALLOCATE SOME OF THE AARP FUNDS TO SUPPORT THE HOMELESS COALITION'S CREATING HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES FUND.

AFTER SOME RESEARCH, WE REALIZED THAT BECAUSE OF THE FEDERAL REPORTING THAT'S NECESSARY TO ACCOUNT FOR THOSE FUNDS, THE PAPERWORK WOULD REQUIRE THE CITY TO HAVE ACCESS TO PROGRAM DOCUMENTS AND REPORT ON INTERNAL HOMELESS COALITION FINANCIAL ACTIVITY FOR THE PROGRAM.

THAT WOULD BE BOTH CUMBERSOME FOR THE HOMELESS COALITION AND FOR THE CITY.

BUT RON CAME BACK TO ME, HOWEVER, WITH THE IDEA OF ALLOCATING MONEY FROM THE FUNDS SET ASIDE FOR SPONSORSHIPS THAT WE'VE ALREADY APPROVED IN THE BUDGET.

HE ASSURED ME THAT WE WOULD HAVE FUNDING TO ALLOCATE $5000 FROM THIS SOURCE TO HELP FUND THE CREATING HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES PROGRAM.

JUST TO TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT BEFORE YOU GET TO WEIGH IN, CREATING HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES PAYS FOR THE FIRST AND LAST MONTH'S RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSITS FOR FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE READY TO MOVE FROM PERMANENT SUPPORTING HOUSING, TRANSITIONAL HOUSING OR INTERIM HOUSING INTO INDEPENDENT PERMANENT HOUSING.

THE COALITION WAS ABLE TO PROVIDE RAPID REHOUSING SERVICES FOR 141 HOUSEHOLDS THIS PAST YEAR. THE HOMELESS COALITION CREATED AND IMPLEMENTED CREATING HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES AS AN INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIP WITH NONPROFITS TO SECURE, SAFE, AFFORDABLE AND DECENT HOUSING FOR

[00:35:03]

FUNDS ARE HOMELESS FOR SHORTER PERIODS OF TIME THAN THOSE ASSISTED WITH SHELTER OR TRANSITIONAL HOUSING.

MORE HOMELESS EXIT TO PERMANENT HOUSING FROM THIS PROGRAM THAN FROM EMERGENCY SHELTERS OR TRANSITIONAL HOUSING.

AND THIS PROGRAM IS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN TRADITIONAL HOUSING PLACEMENT FOR THE HOMELESS, AND THOSE THAT EXIT THROUGH CREATIVE HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES ARE LESS LIKELY TO RETURN TO HOMELESSNESS AS COMPARED TO THOSE EXITING FROM A SHELTER.

SO AT THIS TIME, I'D LIKE TO ASK MY FELLOW COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR THEIR SUPPORT TO USE $5000 FROM THIS FUND FOR THIS PURPOSE.

I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE SPEND $5000 TO SUPPORT THE HOMELESS COALITION.

I'LL SECOND IT OK.

YEAH. JUST YOU IN FAVORITE.

IT'S A GOOD CAUSE. DO IT.

THANK YOU. I THINK THIS IS IS A GREAT WAY FOR US TO HELP THIS PARTICULAR COMMUNITY THAT THAT WE SO OFTEN TALK ABOUT AS NEEDING THE HELP, AND WE'RE IN A POSITION TO DO IT.

SO THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. ALL IN FAVOR I A MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO AND THANK YOU, RON, FOR FINDING A WAY TO MAKE IT HAPPEN, EVEN THOUGH THE ARPA DOLLARS WERE.

NOT ABLE TO BE USED. THANK YOU.

OK, SO.

THE REASON I'M COMING UP IS ACTUALLY I WAS ABLE TO SIT THROUGH THE FIRST READING OF THIS LAST MONTH, AND I FIRST WANTED TO SAY THANK THAT.

THANK YOU THAT YOU GUYS ACTUALLY ASKED ABOUT THE EV CHARGING STATIONS.

SO I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS AS CLARIFICATIONS TONIGHT.

I KNOW WE DON'T NEED TO NECESSARILY HEAR THE WHOLE PRESENTATION AGAIN, BUT I TRY TO LOOK THROUGH ALL THE LINKS THAT ARE AVAILABLE ON THE WEBSITE FOR CITIZENS, WHICH IS GREAT.

SO THANK YOU. THE ONE CLARIFICATION I WANTED TO SEE DID THEY DID THEY GET TO A POINT WHERE MAYBE THEY COULD DO A LEVEL TWO OR THREE FOR THE EV CHARGING STATIONS? THE SECOND CLARIFICATION QUESTION I HAD WAS AND I GOT REMINDED ABOUT IT ACTUALLY YESTERDAY, SITTING WITH LOTS OF MOTORISTS STUCK ON NORTH LAKE BOULEVARD WESTBOUND BECAUSE OF THAT UNFORTUNATE CRIME INCIDENT BY HOLDT THE DRIVEWAY ACCESS ON NORTH LAKE BOULEVARD, I'M ASSUMING IT LOOKS LIKE IT SAID IT WAS EXTENDED TO A PROPOSED EIGHTY FOUR FEET NOW FOR THE DRIVEWAY THROAT, I GUESS DISTANCE.

SO JUST A CLARIFICATION FOR A LOT OF CITIZENS UNDERSTAND.

DOES THAT MEAN LIKE IF WE'RE DRIVING WESTBOUND ON NORTH LAKE AND WE WANT TO TURN INTO THE 7-ELEVEN, WE CAN'T MAKE IT ON THE CONGRESS.

CAN WE PULL IN AND NOT NECESSARILY BACK UP TRAFFIC? SO IT'S JUST A SIMPLE QUESTION REQUEST.

THANK YOU. THAT'S IT.

CAN I CALL THE PRESENTER UP, BRIAN SEYMOUR WILL ANSWER THE QUESTIONS, I BELIEVE YOU DID SAY BY THE END OF THE PRESENTATION THAT WE WERE GOING TO GET LEVEL THREE CHARGING STATIONS. IS THAT CORRECT? SEE, WHEN SOMEONE IS FOCUSED ON SOMETHING, THEY REMEMBER IT.

FOR THE RECORD, BRIAN SEYMOUR ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT.

YES, WE DID.

I WILL RECONFIRM AND I APPRECIATE RAMONA'S QUESTIONS.

THEY ARE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS.

THEY'RE GOING TO BE LEVEL THREE AS TO THE ACCESS, IN ADDITION TO THERE BEING ADDITIONAL STACKING ON SITE.

WE ALSO ASSUMING THE COUNTY PERMITS IT, WHICH I'M GOING TO LEAVE IT, THAT WE HAVE A RIGHT TURN LANE THAT WE WANT. WELL, I WOULD SAY AS SOON AS THE COUNTY PERMITS IT, WE WILL BE TRYING TO GET IT PERMITTED RIGHT AWAY.

AND AS SOON AS THEY SAY YES, WE ALSO PUT A RIGHT TURN LANE IN.

SO YOU'LL HAVE ADDITIONAL STACKING TO PULL OFF DSL AND THEN TURN IN.

YOU'LL HAVE FURTHER DISTANCE THAN YOU HAVE NOW ONCE YOU'RE ON SITE TO BOTH MOVE LEFT OR RIGHT ONCE YOU GET TO THAT POINT.

SO THAT WILL REQUIRE COUNTY BECAUSE IT'S NOT BECAUSE OF THE RIGHT TURN.

LANE IS ON NORTH LAKE AND THE COUNTY CONTROLS THOSE PERMITS.

IT WILL REQUIRE A COUNTY ROADWAY PERMIT.

I'M HAPPY TO DISCUSS THOSE PROCESSES SEPARATELY IF ANYONE WANTS TO INDIVIDUALLY.

I'M GOOD, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. AND I DO ALSO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT MY PARTY FROM LAST TIME CARRIES OVER TO THIS TIME, NOTHING HAS OCCURRED SINCE NOTHING.

YEAH. OK, SO.

I'M GOING TO CLOSE THE HEARING ON ORDINANCE 12.

CAN I GET A A MOTION IN A SECOND TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 12? I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 12.

I'LL SECOND, I'LL BRING IT BACK FOR DISCUSSION.

DO WE HAVE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THE ZONING CHANGE? THERE ARE NO CHANGES. I THINK JUST GRATEFUL FOR THE EV STATIONS.

WELL DONE. THERE'LL BE FULL.

DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT IT. MM HMM.

SO I WANT TO SAY IT OUT LOUD AND ON RECORD ART IN PUBLIC PLACES.

WE HAD ANY DISCUSSIONS ON THIS.

SIR, AGAIN, BRIAN SEYMOUR, THANK YOU.

COUNCIL MEMBER WOODS. I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT WHERE WE COULD DO IT,

[00:45:02]

WE ARE GOING TO TRY.

I CHECKED IN WITH MR. LACO FROM CREIGHTON, WHO'S THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER, ABOUT WHETHER HE'S BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE THAT OUT. YET IT ALL HAS TO BE COORDINATED WITH 7-ELEVEN.

WE'RE WORKING THROUGH THAT.

WE WILL MAKE THE EFFORT TO PUT IT ON SITE.

I KNOW THAT'S IMPORTANT TO YOU.

SOMEBODY SAID SOMETHING ABOUT A HUGE SLURPEE CUP ON TOP OF THE BUILDING.

IS THAT TRUE? IT HAS TO PASS OUR API KEY COMMITTEE.

I DON'T. I DON'T THINK THAT WOULD GET PASSED NATALIE OR JOANNE OR DON AT ALL.

SO NO, I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO ASK, YOU KNOW, IF YOU LOOK AT THOSE BIG BUILDINGS OUT THERE.

WE HAD TO TURN DOWN TO VASTA BECAUSE HE WANTED THOSE DEVASTATING SIGNS TO BE A TYPE TWO, AND WE SAID, NO. I MEAN, I KNOW IT WAS THE THE YEAH, THE PYRAMIDS.

I'M HAPPY TO TO HAVE THE BEAUTIFUL SEVEN 11 COLORS BE AP, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S HAPPENING EITHER. NO, WE WILL LOOK FOR OPPORTUNITIES.

LET'S JUST TRY. IT'S SUCH A GOOD SPOT.

YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS PUSH THAT AND I KNOW MR. JAVELIN WOULD WANT IT TO.

I APPRECIATE THAT AND WE WILL GIVE IT A SHOT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU.

ANYTHING ELSE? ALL RIGHT.

IN THAT CASE, HEARING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, ALL IN FAVOR I AND THE OPPOSED MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO, AND THE CLERK HAS ALREADY READ THE TITLE FOR RESOLUTION FIFTY EIGHT.

SO I WILL OPEN THE HEARING.

WE'VE SAID THERE ARE NO ADDITIONAL EXPERTIZE ON RESOLUTION 58 OTHER THAN WHAT'S CARRIED OVER FROM LAST TIME.

WE DO NOT NEED A PETITIONER PRESENTATION ON THAT.

OK, AND I HAVE NO CARDS ON THIS PARTICULAR ITEM, SO I'M GOING TO CLOSE THE HEARING.

CAN I GET A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE RESOLUTION? FIFTY EIGHT TWENTY TWENTY ONE.

I'LL MAKE A MOTION FOR A RESOLUTION.

FIFTY EIGHT TWENTY TWENTY ONE.

I'LL SECOND THAT. BRING IT BACK FOR DISCUSSION.

ANY DISCUSSION HERE? WE'RE GOOD. ALL IN FAVOR.

I IN THE OPPOSED MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO.

OK, SO ORDINANCE IS 13 AND 14 WILL BE A COMBINED PRESENTATION FOR EACH ORDINANCE, WE WILL

[Items VIII.b. & VIII.c.]

PLEASE READ THE TITLE FOR ORDINANCE 13, ORDINANCE 13, 20 21.

YES, WE DO. CLAIRE, YEAH, I'M JUST GOING TO ALSO EXPLAIN WHY I THINK THAT'S ALSO REQUIRED. MY HUSBAND IS A SHAREHOLDER FOR WDI, WHICH IS DOING THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN AND TRAFFIC FOR THIS PROJECT.

THANK YOU. OK.

SO ARE THERE ANY OTHER PARTIES ON ON THIS? THIS IS NOT A ORDINANCE 13 AND IS NOT 14.

[00:50:03]

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR CITY COUNCIL KEN TIMOTHE, URBAN DESIGN STUDIO.

MY ADDRESS IS SIX 10 CLEMATIS STREET, WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA THREE THREE FOUR ZERO ONE HERE TONIGHT ON BEHALF OF BROOKFIELD PROPERTIES, WHO OWN PGA NATIONAL, THE RESORT AND THE GOLF COURSE.

THE PRESENTATION I HAVE FOR YOU THIS EVENING IS ABOUT 10 TO 15 SLIDES, AND WE'LL GET THROUGH IT FAIRLY QUICKLY AND JUST BRING YOU A FEW UPDATES.

THOUGH OVER THE COURSE OF TODAY, AS YOU KNOW, THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT HAS HAS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED PRETTY HEAVILY WITHIN THE PGA COMMUNITY OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS.

I'VE SPENT THIS AFTERNOON MEETING WITH SOME LOVELY WOMEN, MOSTLY BY ZOOM, EVELYN AND NANCY, WHO ARE TWO REPRESENTATIVES OF ONE OF THE CLOSER HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATIONS TO THIS.

WE SPENT SOME TIME ON THE PHONE, WENT THROUGH THE PROJECT WHILE THEY DON'T AGREE WITH THE WATERSLIDE CONCEPT.

WE DID HAVE SOME UNDERSTANDING OF THE DESIGN OF THE PROJECT AND SOME OF THE HIGH QUALITIES OF THE PROJECT THAT'S BRINGING, BUT THEY DIDN'T AGREE ON THE WATERSLIDE COMPONENT AND ALSO HAD SOME OTHER QUESTIONS WHICH I'M GOING TO ADDRESS THOSE AS WE GO THROUGH HERE. I KNOW THEY'RE LISTENING ON THE VIDEO TODAY, SO I WANT TO GO AHEAD AND JUST PUT THAT IN THE BEGINNING OF THE PRESENTATION.

SO THANK YOU AGAIN.

I WILL GO FAIRLY QUICKLY THROUGH THE SHOW HERE.

IT'S A BIG PROJECT, TAKE YOUR TIME, THANK YOU, MAYOR, I APPRECIATE THAT THIS IS THERE ARE A LOT OF ITEMS THAT ARE HAPPENING.

REALLY, THE PURPOSE OF ALL THE THINGS ON THE SCREEN IN FRONT OF YOU, THE REQUEST ARE TO ALLOW FOR RENOVATIONS, UPDATES AND NEW THINGS AT THE PGA RESORT.

THERE IS A SMALL SCALE AMENDMENT, LAND USE AMENDMENT.

THERE'S A REZONING FROM GOLF TO COMMERCIAL.

THERE'S ALSO MODIFICATIONS TO THE PKD MASTER PLAN AND THEN ALSO A PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AND SITE PLAN AMENDMENT THAT WILL COME BEFORE YOU ON THE SECOND READING.

AND THERE ARE TWO WAIVERS IN THOSE WAIVERS ARE PART OF IT ARE THREE FOOT 10 FOOT THREE FOOT 10 INCHES.

THAT IS DEFINITELY A TYPO.

THREE FOOT 10 INCHES HEIGHT INCREASE FOR TRELLIS ABOVE THE WATERSLIDE AND A FOUR FOOT REAR SETBACK BETWEEN THE COMMON AREA PROPERTY LINES.

IN ESSENCE, THOSE CHANGES ARE TO ADD ADDITIONAL LAND AREA FROM THE GOLF COURSE TO THE RESORT CORE. YOU CAN SEE IDENTIFIED IN THE SCREEN THESE AREAS POINT FIVE, SIX POINT ZERO TWO AND ONE POINT FIVE, WHERE CHANGING THE LAND USE OR REQUESTING THE CHANGE, THE LAND USE THE ZONING AND BRINGING THOSE INTO THE RESORT CORE TO ALLOW FOR THE ALLOW FOR THE REDEVELOPMENT OF A PORTION OF THE SITE.

AND HERE YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN THE EXISTING LAND USING THE EXISTING LAND USE AND DESIGNATION, AND CURRENTLY WE HAVE GOLF ON THE SOUTH AND AROUND IT, AND THE REQUEST IS TO ADD THOSE INTO THE COMMERCIAL LAND AREA.

AND THEN FINALLY, THE THE FINAL PART OF THIS REQUEST IS TO MODIFY THE PKD MASTER PLAN.

THERE'S AN OVERALL PLAN THAT HAS RULED THE PROPERTY FOR MANY YEARS, AND THIS PLAN WILL NOT BE MODIFIED TO BRING IT UP THE DATE TO MATCH WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED TODAY.

AND I FORGOT TO MENTION WHEN I STARTED OUT THAT, YOU KNOW, TODAY I'M FILLING IN FOR MS. BOOTH. I'M NOT REALLY FILLING IN FOR MS. BOOTH. MS. BOOTH RETIRED, BUT ALSO A VERY IMPORTANT FACT TODAY.

HER GRANDDAUGHTER WAS BORN AND I KNOW ANN'S LISTENING.

IT HAPPENED ABOUT THREE HOURS AGO AND SHE TEXTED ME SO THE AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT THAT ARE PART OF THIS APPLICATION ARE IDENTIFIED ON THE SCREEN BECAUSE ULTIMATELY ALL OF THOSE OTHER REQUESTS ARE REALLY FOR THESE FIVE ITEMS. THE FIRST ITEM I'M GOING TO START IN THE TOP IS THE PICKLEBALL COURT, THE REQUEST TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL PICKLEBALL COURT.

THERE'S A SMALL TOT LOT THERE TODAY.

THAT TOT LOT WILL BE REMOVED AND WILL BE PLACED INTERIOR TO THE FACILITY.

THE SECOND THING IS TO UPDATE OR TO INCLUDE A GATEHOUSE AS YOU ENTER INTO PGA NATIONAL.

THE THIRD IS TO MODIFY IN THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE SITE TO MODIFY THE MEMBER CLUB APPROACH TO CREATE A CALDAS OR TO CREATE A ROUNDABOUT, AND ALSO TO HELP SEPARATE TRAFFIC ITEMS WHERE CARTS AND AND GOLF AND VEHICLES ARE CONFLICTING WITH ONE ANOTHER.

I KNOW MOST OF YOU HAVE PROBABLY BEEN BACK THERE, BUT THIS WILL DEFINITELY MAKE IT MUCH MORE ORGANIZED AND CREATE A NEW DROP OFF AND VALET.

AND THEN FINALLY, IN THE SOUTHEAST CORNER, WHICH IS THE CREATION OF A POOL AND A LAZY RIVER WITHIN THE RESORT TO CREATE A UNIQUE ASSET TO THIS PROJECT.

SO FIRST, I'M GOING TO FOCUS IN ON THE GATEHOUSE.

THE GATEHOUSE WILL BE A CENTRAL GATEHOUSE.

THE IDEA FROM BROOKSIDE IS THAT THIS BECOMES A CONCIERGE SERVICE FOR PEOPLE COMING TO THE RESORTS. THE MEMBERS WILL HAVE A FOB TO COME IN OR RFID TO COME IN, SO MEMBERS WHO ARE

[00:55:05]

AND THEY WILL HAVE THEY WILL HAVE THE RFID TO COME INTO THE SITE AND THEN GUESTS WILL COME THROUGH THE MAIN GATE HOUSE AND THE MAIN GATE HOUSE.

THEY'LL BE STOPPED BY THE GUARD.

THEY'RE NOT REQUIRED TO SHOW AN ID, BUT THEY WILL BE STOPPED BY THE GUARD THERE.

AND THE IDEA IS TO CREATE A CONCIERGE SERVICE FOR THE RIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE COMING TO THE HOTEL. THERE IS ALSO A REQUIRED SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF COORDINATION, ESPECIALLY DURING THE HONDA CLASSIC.

ALL THESE FACILITIES HAVE BEEN BUILT HIGH ENOUGH TO ALLOW FOR BUSSES AND FIRE STATIONS TO FIRE VEHICLES THAT COME THROUGH.

ALSO, THERE WILL BE ADDITION OF SEVERAL SMALLER GATES BECAUSE THESE GATES WILL BECOME EGGS AND ONLY HERE AND HERE.

SO EVERYONE WHO ENTERING THE ENTERING THE PGA RESORT WILL COME THROUGH THE GATE HOUSE, BUT YOU CAN GO OUT THROUGH SEPARATE WAYS.

AND THIS IS A VIEW OF THE GATEHOUSE.

YOUR STAFF HAS DONE A GOOD JOB REVIEWING THIS, AND OUR CLIENT HAS DONE WHAT I CONSIDER A REALLY NICE JOB ON ARCHITECTURE.

SO AS YOU PULL IN TO PGA NATIONAL NOW, YOU'RE GOING TO BE STOPPED HERE AT THIS BEAUTIFUL GATEHOUSE. A GUARD OR AN ATTENDANT IS GOING TO COME OUT AND THEY ARE GOING TO TALK TO YOU AND EXPLAIN TO YOU WHERE TO GO AND BECOME KIND OF A CONCIERGE SERVICE.

KIND OF THAT FIRST STOP AS YOU COME IN THE PGA NATIONAL.

UM, ON ACCESS AND CIRCULATION, THE ACCESS AND CIRCULATION IS A QUESTION THAT HAS COME UP FOR MANY YEARS, AS YOU KNOW, THERE IS AN EXISTING BRIDGE THAT CONNECTS THE TENNIS COURTS TO THE COMMUNITY, TO THE LEFT ON THE SCREEN.

THERE WILL BE A GATE ADDED TO THAT, WHICH WILL ALSO HAVE A FOB PASS FOR YOU TO COME IN AND OUT. AND THEN IT WILL ALSO BE OPEN AND MONITORED WITH A GUARD DURING THE HONDA CLASSIC, SO IT WILL BE OPEN WITH A GUARD MONITORING HOW PEOPLE CROSS THE BRIDGE DURING THE HONDA CLASSIC.

PICKLEBALL, EVERYBODY'S FAVORITE SUBJECT, A NEW PICKLEBALL COURT BEING BUILT OVER HERE BY THE EXISTING PICKLEBALL COURTS.

GYPSIES. AND JUMPED AHEAD A LITTLE BIT HERE.

SO THE PICKLEBALL COURT IS ON THE SCREEN IN FRONT OF YOU.

IT WILL BE EXISTING.

IT WILL BE SIMILAR TO THE EXISTING ONES IN THE HOURS OF OPERATION WILL BE EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE EXISTING COURTS.

THE TOT LOT WILL BE REMOVED.

HERE IN THE BOTTOM LEFT OR THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE SITE, THE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE MEMBERS CLUB, THIS IS A NEW DROP OFF AREA IN VALET PARKING.

KIND OF A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAIL.

WHAT IT DOES IS IT IMPROVES BOTH CIRCULATION AND STACKING TO ALLOW MORE LITTLE MORE DISTANCE, AND IT ALSO TRIES TO SEPARATE THE GOLF CART AND THE VEHICLE TRAFFIC TO TRY TO AVOID CONFLICTS.

ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE NOW ON THE SPA, I SUSPECT MOST OF YOU HAVE BEEN TO THE SPA.

IT'S UNDER RENOVATION NOW.

THE CONCEPT OF CHANGING THE SPA PARKING LOT IS TO BRING THE PARKING JUST A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO THE SPA AND THAT ALSO IMPROVE ACCESS AND ALSO HAVE SOME ADR SPACES THAT ARE ALSO. SO ONTO THE TOPIC THAT I SUSPECT HAS EVERYONE'S ATTENTION, WHICH IS THE POOL, THE LAZY RIVER AND THE SLIDE.

THE THE FACILITY IS PROPOSING TO PUT A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT AND TO CREATE A FAMILY, A FAMILY AND ENTERTAINMENT AREA WITHIN PGA RESORT.

THE IDEA FOR THE POOL AND THE THE THE POOL, THE LAZY RIVER AND THE SLIDE IS TO HAVE FAMILIES COME AND NOT EVERYONE IN THEIR FAMILY GOLFS.

AND THE IDEA IS TO HAVE SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE THERE.

OUR CLIENT IS HERE AND HE WILL CERTAINLY COME AND TALK TO YOU ABOUT THEIR REASONING AND LOGIC, WHY THEY WANTED TO DO THIS.

BUT THEY BELIEVE, AND I BELIEVE, TOO, THAT THIS IS A GREAT ADDITION TO PGA NATIONAL.

IT ALLOWS FOR THE ADDITION OF A LAZY RIVER, A VERY NICE POOL, ADDITIONAL POOL ELEMENT AND ALSO A WATER SLIDE, WHICH I THINK WILL ATTRACT SOME YOUNG CHILDREN WHO WILL HAVE A LOT OF FUN ON IT. SO LET'S START WITH THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS ON THE SCREEN.

IN FRONT OF YOU IS THE LAZY RIVER.

FIRST THING IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THIS PUSHES THE GOLF TEE JUST A LITTLE BIT TO THE EAST. THE EXISTING DRIVING RANGE TEE IS BEING MOVED A LITTLE BIT TO THE EAST.

NOT VERY MUCH.

THERE'S AN EXISTING BUILDING THAT'S GOING TO BE TORN DOWN NOW.

KIND OF THE BIG PICTURE OF WHAT'S HAPPENING IS YOU HAVE A POOL AREA.

AND YOU HAVE A LAZY RIVER AND YOU ALSO HAVE A WATER SLIDE.

[01:00:04]

THE FIRST ONE IS THE MECHANICAL ROOM HERE ON THE NORTH SIDE.

THERE'S ALSO A FOOD AND CONCESSION AREA.

AND THEN THIS IS A BATHROOM FACILITY AND THEN THE BALANCE OF THIS SITE, WHICH I WILL SHOW YOU IN MORE DETAIL GOING THROUGH THIS IS THE WATER AREA.

IN ITS INTENT IS TO HAVE BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPING, LOTS OF SEATING AREAS, PLACES FOR PEOPLE TO RELAX AND JUST BECOME A VERY NICE RESORT ATMOSPHERE.

THE NAME OF THE COMMUNITY IS PGA RESORT, AND THE IDEA OF THIS IS TO BECOME A RESORT.

IT WILL ALSO HAVE THE SAME HOURS AS THE EXISTING POOL.

THE WATERSLIDE WILL CLOSE AT DUSK EVERY NIGHT.

THERE WILL ALSO BE AN ATTENDANT SLASH LIFEGUARD ON THAT WATERSLIDE EVERY TIME DURING THE TIME THAT IT'S OPEN.

IT WILL BE OPEN TO THE HOTEL GUESTS AND THE CLUB MEMBERS.

AND THE IDEA IS TO MAKE THIS PORTION OF THE RESORT MORE FAMILY ORIENTATED.

SO KIND OF FIRST, THE BIG PICTURE TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE VIEW OF WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE. IT CREATES A BEAUTIFUL POOL AREA WITH A RESORT SEEING WITH A RESORT THEME YOU CAN SEE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE SCREEN.

SOME OF THE STRUCTURES BEING CONSTRUCTED IN THE BACKGROUND ARE THE WATER SLIDES COMING FROM THE WATER TOWER AND THEN IN THE FOREGROUND IS THE POOL.

AND I HAVE A FEW MORE SLIDES TO KIND OF EXPLAIN HOW THE POOL WORKS, BUT THE POOLS REALLY NEED ITS TOTALED ITS MAXIMUM DEPTH.

THAT'S 54 INCHES.

THE THE LAZY RIVER IS, WHICH IS A NICE AREA WHERE WATER FLOWS THROUGH.

YOU GET ON A TUBE OR YOU FLOAT DOWN IT AFTER YOU GET OUT OF THE SLIDE.

IT'S THIRTY SIX INCHES OF DEPTH.

AND THEN THERE'S ALSO THE ZERO LEDGE WHERE YOU COME IN A BEACH LIKE STRUCTURE, WHERE YOU COME IN, WHERE IT'S AT A VERY LONG AREA THAT'S VERY MINIMAL DEPTH OF WATER, BUT IT CREATES LIKE A BEACH LIKE FIELD.

SO FIRST, LET'S START WITH THE STRUCTURES.

THERE'S A FOOD AND BEVERAGE BUILDING, VERY SMALL FOOD AND BEVERAGE BUILDING.

IT'S BETWEEN SIX AND SEVEN HUNDRED SQUARE FEET.

HERE'S THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE FACILITY, YOU CAN SEE THE NICE ARCHITECTURE AND HOW THE COLORS ADAPT NICELY TO THE LANDSCAPING AND JUST FIT IN THE AREA AND THE BRICK PAVERS AND THEN A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LANDSCAPING THAT IS SURROUNDING IT.

AND THAT'S JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE LANDSCAPING THAT IS IN THE ENTIRE LAZY RIVER POOL AREA. THE NEXT STRUCTURE IN A VERY IMPORTANT STRUCTURE AND ONE THAT I WOULD BE FOCUSED IN ON IS THE MECHANICAL ROOM.

IT IS A BIG BUILDING.

THERE ARE A LOT OF PIECES OF EQUIPMENT REQUIRED TO RUN THIS TYPE OF FACILITY.

IT'S ABOUT 30 600 SQUARE FEET, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.

BUT A COUPLE OF IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE I GET INTO THE DETAILS.

FIRST, THE PUMPS FOR THIS ARE SEVEN FEET BELOW GROUND.

THERE ARE NO ABOVE STRUCTURES, FOUR PUMPS.

THEY'RE ALSO LOCATED WITHIN THIS BUILDING, AND THIS BUILDING ALSO HAS SOUND ATTENUATION.

THERE ARE LOUVERS ON THE BUILDING.

THOSE LOUVERS ARE DECORATIVE IN NATURE.

SO TO SHOW YOU KIND OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE, THIS IS WHAT THE MECHANICAL BUILDING LOOKS LIKE. AND AGAIN, THE LOUVERS ON THE SOUTH SIDE ARE DECORATIVE IN NATURE.

AND THIS IS A VIEW, THE ARCHITECTURE FROM AN ELEVATION VIEW, YOU COULD SEE THE SOUND ATTENUATION AND THEN THE ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES OF THE LOUVERS.

THE NEXT STRUCTURE IS A STRUCTURE OF THE WATERSLIDE ITSELF.

AND HOW DOES THIS WORK? HOW DOES IT OPERATE? WELL, FIRST IT IS A WATERSLIDE AND YOU CAN SEE IN THE BACKGROUND HERE AND I'LL SHOW YOU IN PICTURES IN A FEW MINUTES.

BUT YOU COULD SEE IN THE BACKGROUND WHAT IT IS IS IT'S A TOWER.

YOU WALK UP A STAIRCASE TO THE FIRST TO THE TOP OF THE WATER SLIDE.

THE TOP OF THAT STAIRCASE BRINGS YOU TO A HEIGHT OF 30 FEET.

AND THEN ON TOP OF THAT, THERE'S A TRELLIS FEATURE TO BLOCK THE SUN, AND THAT GOES UP TO AN ELEVATION OF THIRTY NINE FEET, TEN INCHES, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.

SO WHEN YOU WALK INTO THIS, WHAT HAPPENS AS YOU WALK INTO THE STAIRCASE? THE STAIRCASE IS IN A NORMAL STAIRCASE.

THE STAIRCASE HAS THE PLANNER.

THAT'S 42 INCHES IN HEIGHT AS ITS AS ITS RAIL, AS YOU WALK UP, AND THEN IT HAS PLANTING OF TWO TO THREE FEET ABOVE THAT, WHICH MATCHES MY HEIGHT IS SIX FEET.

SO IT'S NOT AN OPEN RAIL SYSTEM, IT IS BLACK AND OBVIOUSLY VERY WELL DESIGNED WITH LOTS OF IMPACT, LOTS OF INFO, INFORMATION AND IMPACT FROM YOUR STAFF.

IT'S A 42 INCH CONCRETE OR FORTY TWO INCH PLANTER.

AND THEN THE GROWERS OR THE PLANTS ARE ON TOP OF IT.

SO AS YOU WALK UP THE STAIRCASE, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE YOUR HEAD FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE STAIRCASE BECAUSE THE GROVES WILL BLOCK THAT.

AND THE REASON WHY THAT'S SO IMPORTANT IS BECAUSE IT IS IT IS A TALL THING.

AND THE IDEA HERE IS TO BLOCK ANY VIEWS OR NOISE FROM THE RESIDENTS.

[01:05:02]

THEY'RE DECORATIVE LOUVERS ON THE BUILDING ITSELF OR ON THE STRUCTURE ITSELF.

AND THEN ENHANCED SCREENING ON THE BASE.

THERE IS NOT ONE LAYER OF SCREENING BEFORE THE FIRST HOUSE.

THERE IS NOT TWO LAYERS OF SCREENING BEFORE THE FIRST HOUSE.

THERE ARE THREE SEPARATE LAYERS OF SCREENING FROM THE CLOSEST HOUSE, WHICH IS THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE FEET AWAY.

SO THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LANDSCAPING THAT'S BEEN ADDED TO THIS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE VIEWS BLOCK FROM THE RESIDENCE.

BUT AS I SAID EARLIER, AS YOU COULD SEE YOU CLIMB UP THE STAIRWELL HERE, YOU'RE WALKING UP, YOU CAN SEE THE PLANTERS AND THEN YOU COME IN AND THEN YOU GO DOWN THE STAIRS, GO DOWN THE WATERSLIDE, YOU'LL SEE THE WATER SLIDE HERE AND GREEN.

THE GREEN WAS A COLOR THAT WAS PICKED TO HELP MAKE SURE THAT IT IS IS MINIMALLY OBTRUSIVE AS POSSIBLE. AND THEN THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LANDSCAPING AND SOME AREAS THERE ARE REPLANTED ROYAL PALMS, WHICH ARE 25 FEET IN HEIGHT.

AND THEN THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LANDSCAPING SPREAD THROUGHOUT THE SITE.

SO THIS IS A VIEW OF WHAT, FROM A TECHNICAL STANDPOINT, WOULD THE ELEVATION OF THIS FACILITY LOOKS LIKE? AND AGAIN, I JUST WANT TO WALK THROUGH THE STAIRCASE SO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE. YOU COULD SEE THOSE ARE PLANTERS AND NOT A REGULAR HANDRAIL LIKE WHEN YOU'RE WALKING UP THE REGULAR BUILDING.

SO THIS IS ANOTHER VIEW OF IT FROM THE FRONT, WE SAW THIS VIEW A LITTLE BIT EARLIER, BUT NOW THAT YOU KIND OF HAVE A CONCEPT OF WHAT'S HAPPENING, KIDS SLIDE DOWN THE TUBES AND THEN THEY COME INTO THE LAZY RIVER AND THEY FLOAT TO THE POOL AREA.

IT'S THE DESIGN INTENT OF THIS.

THIS IS ANOTHER VIEW OF THE EQUIPMENT BUILDING.

THIS IS A KIND OF A LITTLE DIFFERENT ANGLE, SO YOU CAN SEE THE POOL FROM A LITTLE DIFFERENT SPOT. AND THEN ALSO IN THE BACKGROUND, YOU SEE THE WASH SLIDE.

IN REGARDS TO LANDSCAPING, I DON'T WANT TO SPEND A FEW MINUTES ON THIS BECAUSE IT'S VERY IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS VERY WELL LANDSCAPED AND ALSO CREATES THAT BUFFER SEPARATION FROM ALL THE RESIDENTS TO THE CELL FIRST.

THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TREES, AS YOU CAN SEE KIND OF THE LAYERING OF TREES.

THIS IS THE FIRST LAYER THAT WE TALKED THAT YOU SAW WHEN WE SHOWED THE ROYAL PALMS AND THE TREES IN FRONT OF IT.

THAT'S THE FIRST LAYER.

THEN THERE'S A SECOND ADDITIONAL LAYER OF TREES HERE.

AND THEN FINALLY.

THIS SHOWS KIND OF HOW ALL THREE LAYERS ARE DONE, THE CLOSEST HOME FOR A FRAME OF REFERENCE IS THE PATIO HOMES AND THERE ARE THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE FEET AWAY.

HERE'S THAT FIRST LAYER OF LANDSCAPING.

HERE'S THE SECOND LAYER OF LANDSCAPING, THESE ARE A SECOND LAYER OF LANDSCAPING.

THESE ARE CLUSTERED PINE TREES PROPOSED HERE AND THEN HERE THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF EXISTING LANDSCAPING.

AND THEN HERE WERE WERE PROVIDING MANY DIFFERENT TREE SPECIES, BUT PRIMARILY COMPOSED OF A LIVE OAK GROVE.

AND THESE TREES ARE OF SIGNIFICANT SIZE.

AND THEN ALSO YOU COULD SEE IN THE BACKGROUND THAT THERE ARE EXISTING TREES THROUGHOUT THE AREA. AND LET ME BLOW IN A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAIL SO YOU GET AN IDEA OF WHAT THAT BUFFER LOOKS LIKE.

YOU COULD SEE THE EXISTING TREES, THERE'S A 20 FOOT HIGH TREE HERE.

THERE'S A 20 FOOT HIGH EXISTING TREE HERE.

WE'RE PROPOSING CLUSTERS OF PIGEON PLUMS, PLOT CLUSTERS OF PINES AND SABLES SILVER BUTTON WOODS AND THE PROPOSED OAK GROVE.

THOSE TREES ARE PLANTED.

THE OAKS ARE PLANTED AT 15 FEET OF HEIGHT, AND YOU NEED A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LANDSCAPING FOR THAT ENTIRE AREA.

SO THE NEXT QUESTION, AND THIS IS FOR THE FOLKS THAT I SPOKE TO EARLIER TODAY, HOW FAR AM I AWAY FROM THIS? WHAT DOES IT DO TO ME? SO FIRST THING, THE CLOSEST HOME IN THE PATIO HOMES IS THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE FEET, AND I'LL USE MY FOOTBALL ANALOGY FOR THAT ONE.

IT'S MORE THAN A FOOTBALL FIELD.

THEN THIS DISTANCE IS A THOUSAND FEET TO VILLA THE COURSE, THE ROAD.

AND THEN ANOTHER THOUSAND FEET TO THE POINT AND THEN EIGHTEEN HUNDRED FEET HERE TO AUGUSTA POINT. THE VERY SIGNIFICANT DISTANCE AWAY FROM THE WATER SLIDE.

NOW, THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY SEVEN FEET, THIS HAS TAKEN FROM BEING STANDING UP AT THIRTY SIX FEET OF HEIGHT, DON'T VOTE AGAINST IT BECAUSE OF THE PICTURE.

IT'S THE ONLY ONE I HAD.

IF YOU IF YOU HAD, IF, IF YOU WERE UP THIRTY SIX FEET, IF YOU WERE UP THIRTY SIX FEET OF HEIGHT, WHICH IS THIS IS AN ACCURATE PICTURE.

SO I JUST WANT TO TAKE A SECOND JUST FOR A SECOND.

SO I WENT TO TICKETMASTER TODAY AND I SAID, WHAT'S THIRTY SIX FEET OF HEIGHT? WELL, IT'S THE B DECK AND OHIO STADIUM OR JOE ROBBIE, WHEREVER YOU WANT TO CALL GO.

AND THE SEPARATION OF THREE HUNDRED, THIS IS ACTUALLY SHOULD SAY THREE SEVENTY FIVE.

[01:10:02]

BUT THAT'S THE DISTANCE TO THE OPPOSITE OF WHERE IT SAYS OHIO STATE.

THE TOP OF THE S, IT'S THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE FEET AWAY.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I WILL I WILL COMMENCE TO YOU THAT YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE A PERSON STANDING DOWN THERE BECAUSE I CERTAINLY WASN'T WHEN I WAS IN THE FOOTBALL GAME.

SO HEIGHT WAIVERS, WE DO HAVE A HEIGHT WAIVER FOR THE WATERSLIDE TRELLIS FEATURE.

WHAT'S ALLOWED IS THIRTY SIX FEET OF HEIGHT.

WE'RE REQUESTING TO GO TO THIRTY NINE FEET, 10 INCHES, AND THAT'S REALLY FOR THE TRELLIS ITSELF. AND THAT TRELLIS IS AN IMPORTANT ITEM BECAUSE IT'S TO PROVIDE SHADE AT THE TOP OF THAT FACILITY. REMEMBER, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A LIFEGUARD UP THERE AT ALL TIMES.

THE EXISTING HOTEL HEIGHTS VARY BETWEEN THIRTY SIX, NINE AND 50 FEET.

WE ARE REQUESTING A SMALL WAIVER OF THREE FEET TO ALLOW FOR THIS TRELLIS FEATURE.

THE PUBLIC BENEFITS INCLUDE ALL THE ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING AND SCREENING, INCLUDING THE BUILDING FACADE ON THE BASE AND ALSO ON THE GOLF COURSE.

THERE IS ALSO A SMALL OTHER WAIVER REQUESTED, AND THIS IS FOR THE MEMBERS ONLY CLUB, THE MEMBERS ONLY CLUB.

THIS IS AN EXISTING CONDITION THAT'S THERE TODAY.

15 FEET IS REQUIRED, FOUR FEET AS AN EXISTING CONDITIONS WHO ARE REQUESTED TO BRING THAT UP TO REGULATIONS, TO ALLOW IT TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE PLAN AND POTENTIALLY ADDRESS THE COMMON AREA PROPERTY LINE.

SO JUST A QUICK SUMMARY OF THE REQUEST.

A SMALL SCALE MAP AMENDMENT FOR FIRST READING.

THAT'S MODIFYING THE LAND USE FROM GOLF TO COMMERCIAL.

THE SECOND ONE IS YOU HAVE TO REZONE THE PROPERTY BECAUSE NOW YOU'VE REZONING IT FROM GOLF TO COMMERCIAL.

THE THIRD ONE IS TO MODIFY THE MASTER PLAN TO ALLOW TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE NEW LAND AREAS THAT ARE BEING INCORPORATED.

THE FOURTH ITEM IS THE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AND THE SITE PLAN AMENDMENT, WHICH ALSO INCLUDES THE TWO WAIVERS WHICH ARE ON THE SCREEN IN FRONT OF THE.

NOW I WANT TO ADDRESS PUBLIC OUTREACH BECAUSE ALWAYS AN IMPORTANT PART OF OUR PROJECT, AND ONE THING I CAN TELL YOU IS MS. BOOTH IS VERY GOOD AT PUBLIC OUTREACH AND I WANT TO WALK YOU THROUGH EVERYTHING THAT'S BEEN DONE ON THIS.

FIRST, THERE WAS A PRELIMINARY POHA MEETING HELD IN FEBRUARY OF 2020.

AT THAT MEETING IN FEBRUARY OF 2020 AND PRESENTED THIS TO THE ART COMMITTEE, THE PRELIMINARY ART COMMITTEE AND THE PRELIMINARY ART COMMITTEE THEN GRANTED A LETTER, A PRELIMINARY LETTER AND MARCH 18 OF 2020 FOR THIS PROPOSAL.

SO THAT IS PART OF YOUR RECORD.

WE DO HAVE THAT AS PART OF IT.

ALSO IN JULY OF 2020 AND SENT EMAILS TO ALL OF THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES WITH SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES. THAT'S A REQUIREMENT.

AND THOSE OF YOU WHO LIVE IN PGA KNOW THAT YOU GO THROUGH THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES, YOU DO NOT GO TO A BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNTIL YOU'RE TOLD YOU GO THROUGH THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES AND THEN FOLLOWED UP WITH ANOTHER EMAIL IN SEPTEMBER OF THIS PAST YEAR TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY COMMENTS.

AND THERE HAD BEEN SOME COMMENTS AND WE HAD, WE HAVE ADDRESSED THOSE BY EMAIL.

AND THEN FINALLY, THERE WAS A FULL MEETING OF THE PLAY IN OCTOBER.

SO EXCUSE ME, NOT A FULL MEETING, BUT THE POHA HAD AN UPDATE REVIEW OF THIS ON OCTOBER 7TH OF TWENTY TWENTY ONE BECAUSE THE PROJECT HAD MODIFIED.

GUESS WHAT? WE LOWERED THE HEIGHT OF THE TRELLIS WE LOWERED.

WE DID DIFFERENT THINGS THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT WORKING THROUGH AND THEN THE FINAL ARC, WHICH IS THE FINAL COMMITTEE THAT WILL APPROVE THIS, APPROVES IT POST CITY COUNCIL.

SO WE HAVE DONE OUTREACH TO THE PLAY IN PGA NATIONAL.

NOW WE WILL CONTINUE TO MEET WITH THEM.

AS WE KNOW, THIS HAS BEEN AN IMPORTANT TOPIC AND I'M HAPPY TO MEET WITH ANYBODY OUT THERE TO EXPLAIN THE PROJECT.

BUT I JUST WANT IT TO BE CLEAR THAT WE DID DO WHAT THE PROCESS THAT IS IN PLACE.

SO IN REGARDS TO OTHER MATTERS IN FRONT OF YOU, THE PROJECT WAS SUBMITTED BACK IN NOVEMBER OF TWENTY TWENTY.

THE SIGNS HAVE BEEN POSTED IN SEPTEMBER, TWENTY SEVEN, TWENTY TWENTY ONE.

WE THEN HAD MAIL NOTICES AND A PUBLIC HEARING AT YOUR PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD ON OCTOBER 12TH, WHERE THEY APPROVED THIS.

AND WE ALSO SENT NOTICES TO THE REQUIREMENT ON OCTOBER TWENTY FIRST OF TWENTY TWENTY ONE.

AND HERE WE ARE TODAY ON NOVEMBER 1ST, REQUESTING YOUR APPROVAL.

OUR WHOLE TEAM IS HERE.

HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.

AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR HOPEFULLY YOUR APPROVAL THIS EVENING.

YOUR STAFF HAS RECOMMENDED APPROVAL.

YOUR PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD HAD RECOMMENDED APPROVAL.

AND I WANT TO STATE AGAIN THAT FOR THE NEIGHBORS, WE'RE CONTINUING WILLING TO MEET AND MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTAND THE PROJECT.

THANK YOU, AND I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME THIS EVENING.

KEN, CAN I ASK ONE QUESTION? DID ANY RESIDENTS SHOW UP TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING PUBLIC HEARING? NO, MA'AM. THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT. I DO HAVE IS THERE A STAFF PRESENTATION?

[01:15:07]

I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.

I APOLOGIZE IF THIS IS DUPLICATIVE, BUT IT IS AN IMPORTANT PROJECT.

IT'S A LARGE PROJECT. AND SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT NOT ONLY ALL OF YOU ARE AWARE OF ALL THE DETAILS, BUT THE PUBLIC AS WELL.

SO I'LL TRY AND RUN THROUGH SOME OF THE THE MORE SIMPLE PIECES RATHER QUICKLY.

SO AS YOU ARE AWARE, THE PGA RESORT IS LOCATED CENTRALLY WITHIN PGA NATIONAL, SURROUNDED BY GOLF COURSE AND MANY RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES.

THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF HISTORY ON THIS PROJECT, DATING BACK 1978.

THE RESORT ITSELF, THE PED, WAS CREATED IN 1980, AND SINCE THEN THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL AMENDMENTS TO THE SITE PLAN.

ALL OF THE FACILITIES AND THE RECREATIONAL AMENITIES THAT ARE ON SITE TODAY WERE DONE SO THROUGH SEVERAL DIFFERENT AMENDMENTS THROUGH THE EIGHTIES, NINETIES AND THE MOST RECENT LARGE APPROVAL WAS IN 2004.

THERE WERE SEVERAL EXPANSIONS APPROVED TO THE HOTEL AND RESORT PROPERTY, MOST OF WHICH WERE NOT BUILT. BUT I'LL GO INTO DETAIL ON SOME OF THOSE A LITTLE BIT LATER.

AND THEN, AS YOU'RE AWARE, IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN BROOKFIELD PROPERTIES PURCHASED THE RESORT CORE AND THE GOLF COURSES, AND THEY HAVE BEEN LOOKING TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE PROPERTY SINCE THEN. SO ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE, YOU CAN SEE IN REED, THE BOUNDARY OF THE RESORT CORE PARCEL, THE YELLOW PARCELS, HERE ARE THE THREE AREAS THAT ARE REQUESTED TO BE INCORPORATED INTO THE RESORT CORE IN ORDER TO BRING THOSE PIECES, WHICH TOTAL TWO POINT EIGHT ACRES INTO THE RESORT CORE BOUNDARY.

THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT AMENDMENTS THAT NEED TO BE DONE.

BEFORE YOU TONIGHT FOR YOUR VOTE IS ORDINANCE 13, AN ORDINANCE 14, ORDINANCE 13 IS A SMALL SCALE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT FOR THE TWO POINT EIGHT ACRES TO BRING THOSE FROM GOLF TO COMMERCIAL. THE PURPOSE IS TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE RESORT CORE SO THAT THEY CAN BE INCORPORATED. THE DENSITY AND INTENSITY OF THE RESORT CORE IS BEING LIMITED WITH THAT LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT TO THE ULTIMATE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR THE SITE.

WE DID COMPLETE A LEVEL OF SERVICE ANALYSIS SUCH AS TRAFFIC, SEACOAST WATER AND SEWER, SOLID WASTE AND DRAINAGE AS REQUIRED FOR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS, AND THIS AMENDMENT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

THE ZONING IS VERY SIMILAR.

AGAIN, JUST TO CHANGE THOSE THREE PARCEL AREAS FROM PGA NATIONAL PCD WITH UNDERLYING GOLF USES TO THE HOTEL AND RECREATIONAL PUDI.

SO A COUPLE OF GRAPHICS JUST TO SHOW YOU THE EXISTING COMMERCIAL LAND USE FOR THE RESORT.

YOU CAN SEE IT IS SURROUNDED BY GREEN CURRENTLY, WHICH IS GOLF.

THE ADDITION OF THE THREE PARCEL AREAS WILL BE COMMERCIAL AS WELL, AND STILL THE ENTIRE BOUNDARY WILL BE SURROUNDED BY GOLF.

SAME FOR THE ZONING POD IN WHITE SURROUNDED BY ISD.

AGAIN, THESE AMENDMENTS, THE LAND USE AND THE ZONING ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, PARTICULARLY THE COMMERCIAL AND GOLF FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENTS, AS WELL AS GOAL ONE POINT ONE WHICH ENSURES A MIXTURE OF LAND USES IN THE CITY.

AS I MENTIONED, THE PROPERTY EXISTING AND PROPOSED WILL BE SURROUNDED BY GOLF.

THERE ARE ALSO TWO REQUESTS FOR PCD AMENDMENT AND A PUDI AMENDMENT.

THE PCD AMENDMENT IS JUST AN UPDATE TO THE MASTER PLAN TO ALLOW FOR THAT CHANGE IN BOUNDARY FOR THE RESORT CORPS AND UPDATE THE ACREAGE FOR THAT PARCEL.

AND THE PUDI AMENDMENT IS ALL OF THE RELATED SITE PLAN CHANGES, SO KEN WAS VERY CLEAR ON A LOT OF THESE ITEMS, SO I WILL GO THROUGH SOME OF THE MORE SIMPLE ITEMS RATHER QUICKLY AND THEN TOUCH ON THE LAZY RIVER AND WATER SLIDE.

I ALSO WANTED TO NOTE THAT WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED WITH THIS SITE PLAN ARE THREE SEPARATE ACCESSORY AMENDS ONE THE FUTURE GOLF TEACHING FACILITY, THE GUARD HOUSE AND THE POOL BUILDINGS, THE THREE POOL BUILDINGS.

THOSE ARE ALL ACCESSORY IN NATURE, AND THEY DO NOT SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGE THE ULTIMATE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM, AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN.

ALSO, AS A MATTER OF THIS SITE PLAN, THERE WAS SHARED PARKING APPROVED IN TWO THOUSAND FOUR AND BASED ON A FEW OF THE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE PARKING LOT, AREAS THAT SHARED PARKING WAS UPDATED WITH THE PUDI AMENDMENT.

TRAFFIC WAS REVIEWED, LIKE I SAID, WITH THE LEVEL OF SERVICE ANALYSIS FOR THE LAND USE AND AGAIN, SINCE THESE USES BEING PROPOSED OR ACCESSORY, THEY ARE MINIMAL IN TRAFFIC IMPACT. LOOKING AT THE GUARDHOUSE, AS KEN MENTIONED, THIS IS INFORMATIONAL IN NATURE, AND

[01:20:07]

GUESTS CAN COME THROUGH AND MEMBERS CAN GO AROUND WHETHER A FIRE TRUCK OR BUS NEEDS TO ACCESS THROUGH THE COVERED AREA OR AROUND.

THERE IS ENOUGH ROOM BOTH IN HEIGHT AND IN WIDTH FOR THAT ACCESS, AS WELL AS THROUGH THE EXIT LANE. THE ADDITIONAL PICKLEBALL COURT WILL MATCH THE TWO EXISTING COURTS AND THE REMOVAL OF THE PLAYGROUND IS BEING MITIGATED BY AN INDOOR CHILDREN'S AREA.

THE PEDESTRIAN GATE, AS KEN MENTIONED, IS ANOTHER LEVEL OF ACCESS AND CIRCULATION THAT IS BEING MORE SECURED, AND DURING EVENTS LIKE THE HONDA CLASSIC, IT WILL BE OPEN AND MANNED.

BUT OTHER THAN THAT, IT WILL BE USED BY MEMBERS AND THEIR GUESTS DURING OPEN OPERATING HOURS. THE FUTURE GOLF TEACHING FACILITY, THIS IS ONE OF THE AREAS WHERE THE PARCEL IS BEING EXPANDED.

IT'S APPROXIMATELY ZERO POINT FIVE SIX ACRE IN THIS AREA.

THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING JUST FOR THE EXPANSION OF THE BOUNDARY IN THIS LOCATION AND THE SIZE OF THE GOLF TEACHING FACILITY TO BE APPROVED AT 20000 SQUARE FEET, LIKELY A TWO STOREY BUILDING. WHEN THEY DO COME THROUGH FOR FORMAL REQUEST OF THIS GOLF TEACHING FACILITY, IT WILL REQUIRE ANOTHER PROCESS THROUGH THE CITY, WHATEVER THAT MAY BE, WHATEVER THAT'S DETERMINED TO BE, SO THAT WE CAN REVIEW SITE PLAN, LANDSCAPE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURAL CHANGES.

IN FRONT OF THE MEMBERS CLUB, YOU CAN SEE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE THE APPROVED CIRCULATION ONE LANE IN AND ONE LANE OUT.

AND THIS IS BEING EXPANDED TO TWO LANES IN AND ONE LANE OUT, WITH IMPROVED CIRCULATION DOWN AT THE BACKDROP AND VALET AREA, AS WELL AS MODIFICATION OF THE PARKING LOT TO THE LEFT. THERE ARE EXISTING EV CHARGING STATIONS IN THOSE PARKING SPACES, AND THOSE ARE BEING MAINTAINED WITH THE RECONFIGURATION.

ON THE BOTTOM SIDE OF THE SCREEN HERE ON THE SOUTH END OF THE MEMBER'S CLUB, THIS IS ANOTHER AREA WHERE THE BOUNDARY IS BEING EXPANDED BY ZERO POINT ZERO TWO ACRES.

THIS IS TO ALLOW THE FUTURE EXPANSION OF THE MEMBERS CLUB AND JUST LIKE THE GOLF TEACHING FACILITY, IT WILL REQUIRE ANOTHER PROCESS FOR US TO REVIEW THAT EXPANSION WHEN THEY DECIDE TO DO THAT. IN FRONT OF THE SPA, THEY'RE INCORPORATING MORE PARKING CLOSER TO THE BUILDING, WHICH IS, OF COURSE, AN IMPROVEMENT TO THAT AREA TO BE MORE FUNCTIONAL.

AND TO THE NEW POOL AMENITY, THIS IS THE LAST AREA, ABOUT ONE POINT FIVE ACRES WHERE THE PARCEL IS BEING EXPANDED IN THIS AREA.

THEY ARE PROPOSING THE ZERO ENTRY BEACH SLOPE POOL, LAZY RIVER WATER WATERSLIDES, SPLASH PAD AND SEVERAL ACCESSORY BUILDINGS.

AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN HERE IN BLUE, I HIGHLIGHTED THE EXISTING TEE BOXES AND THE PROPOSED SHIFT IN THOSE TEE BOXES TO ALLOW FOR THIS PAD BOUNDARY.

AND YOU CAN SEE HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW ALL OF THE BUILDINGS AND THE STRUCTURES, WHICH I WILL TOUCH ON SPECIFICALLY IN ORDER TO ALLOW FOR THIS IMPROVEMENT TO BE BUILT.

THE EXISTING GOLF TEACHING FACILITY IN THIS LOCATION WILL BE DEMOLISHED AND THE FUTURE LOCATION, LIKE I HAD MENTIONED, IS ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE SITE.

A COUPLE OF RENDERINGS THAT KEN WENT THROUGH AND DESCRIBED.

THIS IS THE VIEW FROM THE SOUTH ON THE LAKE, LOOKING TOWARD THE NORTH, YOU CAN SEE THE TOP OF THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE BUILDING, THE RESTROOM BUILDING AND THE WATER SLIDE STRUCTURE AND A VIEW FROM THE EAST SIDE LOOKING NORTHWEST.

THE HOURS OF THE POOL, LIKE KEN MENTIONED, WILL BE THE SAME AS THE EXISTING POOL, WHICH WILL BE MAINTAINED AND THE WATER SLIDE WILL BE DAWN TO DUSK.

NOISE LEVELS WILL BE REQUIRED TO TO MEET CITY CODE STANDARDS JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER PROPERTY IN THE CITY. THIS BUFFER AREA, I WANT TO EXPLAIN IN DETAIL, THIS IS A REALLY IMPORTANT PART OF THE PROPOSAL ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SCREEN, YOU CAN SEE THE WATER SLIDE TOWER AND THE WATER SLIDES AS IT TRAILS OFF OF THE SCREEN.

YOU CAN SEE THE PROPOSED TREES AND SHRUBS SURROUNDING THAT WATERSLIDE AREA.

LIKE KEN MENTIONED, SOME OF THE ROYAL PALMS ACTUALLY, SIX OF THE ROYAL PALMS IN THIS AREA DIRECTLY AROUND THE WATER SIDE ARE RELOCATED, MATURE ROYAL PALMS. THERE ARE THIRTY TO THIRTY FIVE FEET CLEAR TRUNK, FORTY TO FORTY FIVE FEET TOTAL HEIGHT.

SO THAT'S A SUBSTANTIAL BUFFER WITH THOSE THOSE PALMS ALONE RIGHT FROM THE START.

THEY'RE ALSO PROPOSING TO ADD THESE PINE TREES ADJACENT TO THE CART PATHS AS KIND OF A MID SECTION, AS WELL AS THE SUBSTANTIAL BUFFER OF ABOUT 50 TREES CLOSEST TO THE PATIO HOMES. THE INTENT OF ALL OF THIS IS TO HELP SCREEN THAT VIEW FROM THE PATIO HOMES, AS WE

[01:25:04]

THIS BUFFER ON THIS SIDE HERE CLOSEST TO THE PATIO HOME'S BOUNDARY, CONSISTS OF SEVERAL DIFFERENT TREES AT SEVERAL DIFFERENT HEIGHTS, AS WELL AS PALMS, SHRUBS, GROUND COVER.

TO PROVIDE THAT MULTI LEVEL SCREENING ON THE BOTTOM, YOU CAN SEE.

HOPEFULLY, YOU CAN SEE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE A SMALL PERSON, REGULAR SIZED PERSON JUST LOOK SMALL LOOKING TOWARD THE WATER SLIDE AND THE WATER SLIDE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE HERE. THIS IS TRUE TO SCALE IN TERMS OF ITS PROPORTION AND DISTANCE.

AND WITH THE PROPOSED LANDSCAPING ADJACENT TO THE WATER SLIDE, AS WELL AS ACROSS THE NINTH HOLE HERE, THE VIEW IS ANTICIPATED TO BE SCREENED.

THE WAIVER REQUESTS THERE ARE TWO.

ONE IS FOR THE TOTAL HEIGHT OF THE WATERSLIDE STRUCTURE JUST TO THE TOP OF THE TRELLIS, AS KEN MENTIONED, THE WATER SLIDE PLATFORM ITSELF WHERE YOU STAND IS JUST UNDER 30 FEET, WHICH DOES MEET OUR CODE.

AND JUST THE THREE FEET, 10 INCHES TOP OF THE TRELLIS IS BEYOND THE THIRTY SIX FOOT HEIGHT MAXIMUM. HOWEVER, THE APPLICANT HAS JUSTIFIED THIS WAIVER THROUGH THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN OF THE WATER SLIDE TOWER, THE LANDSCAPING PROPOSED.

AND REALLY, THIS PROJECT AS A WHOLE.

THE SECOND WAIVER IS FOR THE SETBACK AT THE MEMBERS CLUB.

THIS BRINGS THE EXISTING BUILDING INTO COMPLIANCE AND ALLOWS FOR THAT FUTURE EXPANSION TO BE IN LINE WITH THE CURRENT BUILDING AND STILL BE IN COMPLIANCE IN THAT AT THAT TIME.

LOOKING A LITTLE CLOSER AT THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THE WATER SLIDE STRUCTURE ON THE TOP HERE IN YELLOW, YOU CAN SEE THE APPROVAL IN TWO THOUSAND FOUR FOR AN EXPANSION TO THE HOTEL. THIS IS THE LOCATION THAT IT WAS APPROVED FOR, AND THE HEIGHT WAS AN AVERAGE HEIGHT OF THIRTY NINE FEET, SIX INCHES.

THREE STORIES IN RED IS THE LOCATION AND SIZE OF THE SLIDE TOWER, SO IN HEIGHT IT IS COMPARABLE TO PREVIOUS APPROVALS.

THEY HAVE ALSO MODIFIED THE PLANS SUBSTANTIALLY BASED ON STAFF'S INITIAL CONCERNS, AS FAR AS THE ARCHITECTURE ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE, YOU CAN SEE THE INITIAL SUBMITTAL, WHICH IS A VERY INDUSTRIAL OPEN POST STRUCTURE WITH A GREEN CANOPY ON TOP AND IT SAT AT FORTY SEVEN FEET TALL. THROUGH OUR REVIEW PROCESS AND STAFF COMMUNICATED CONCERNS, THE APPLICANT WORKED WITH US TO REDUCE THE HEIGHT DOWN TO THIRTY NINE FEET.

TEN INCHES TO THE TOP OF THE TRELLIS PROVIDED A COMPLETELY ENCLOSED STRUCTURE, WITH COLORS AND MATERIALS COMPATIBLE WITH THE NEW AND EXISTING BUILDINGS, AS WELL AS THE LANDSCAPE PLANTERS WRAPPING THE STAIRCASE AS KEN DESCRIBED AND THE REST OF THE LANDSCAPING THAT I'VE JUST GONE THROUGH.

I HAVE A SIMILAR GRAPHIC TO KEN SHOWING THE DISTANCE I OVERLAID THE SITE PLAN, SO YOU CAN SEE FOR EXACT REFERENCE THE SIZE AND LOCATION OF THE WATERSLIDE TOWER COMPARED TO THE NEAREST COMMUNITY, THE PATIO HOMES, THE NEXT SOUTHERN COMMUNITY, VILLA DE ESTE AND DIAMONDHEAD. THESE TWO COMMUNITIES ARE MORE THAN A THOUSAND FEET AWAY.

THE LANDSCAPING, PROPOSED DIRECTLY AROUND THE WATERSLIDE TOWER, WILL HELP TO SCREEN THIS VIEW AS WELL AS THE DISTANCE.

LOOKING A LITTLE FURTHER AGAIN, THE SLIDE IS TO SCALE IN RED AND THE DISTANCE OF ALL OF THE NEARBY COMMUNITIES.

I WANTED TO GO THROUGH IN A LITTLE BIT MORE DEPTH ON THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH THAT NOT ONLY THE CITY STAFF HAS PUSHED FOR AND PARTICIPATED IN, BUT THAT THE APPLICANT HAS REALLY WORKED HARD TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ADDRESS.

SO IN FEBRUARY OF TWENTY TWENTY, WE KNOW THAT THE PGA POHA ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMITTEE, THE AAC, ISSUED THEM PRELIMINARY APPROVAL ON THE PROJECT SCOPE AT THAT TIME, WHICH WAS ACTUALLY A LITTLE BIT MORE SUBSTANTIAL THAN WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING NOW.

AND CERTAINLY, THE DESIGN HAS IMPROVED IN JULY 2020.

THIS IS PRIOR TO SUBMITTING FORMALLY TO THE CITY.

THE APPLICANT CONTACTED REPRESENTATIVES OF THE POHA, THE MEMBERS, CLUB AND COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES THAT ARE CLOSEST TO THE PGA RESORT AND COULD BE AFFECTED BY BY THIS PROJECT. SO THAT INCLUDED THE CLUB COTTAGES, GOLF VILLAS AND PATIO HOMES.

NOVEMBER OF 2020 IS WHEN THIS PROJECT WAS FORMALLY SUBMITTED, AND AGAIN, IT INCLUDED THAT 47 FOOT TALL WATER SLIDE STRUCTURE BY JUNE 20 TWENTY ONE THROUGH OUR REVIEW PROCESS AND BASED ON OUR CONCERNS COMMUNICATED TO THE APPLICANT, THEY SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE HEIGHT OF THE WATER SLIDE STRUCTURE AND IMPROVE THE DESIGN.

IN JULY 2020, ONE CITY STAFF, NATALIE AND MYSELF, MET WITH POHA REPRESENTATIVES AT CITY HALL. WE PROVIDED THEM WITH AN UPDATE OF THE PROJECT AND GAVE THEM COPIES OF THE PLANS AT THAT TIME SO THAT THEY WOULD BE IN THE LOOP, AND WE ENCOURAGE DISSEMINATION OF THOSE

[01:30:05]

IN SEPTEMBER OF THIS YEAR, BEFORE WE CAME BEFORE THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD, THE APPLICANT AGAIN CONTACTED THE VOA AND THE SAME HOME COMMUNITIES THAT WERE CLOSEST TO THE RESORT. OCTOBER 7TH WE KNOW THAT THE APPLICANT MET WITH THE POHA, WHICH INCLUDED ARC REPRESENTATIVES AND REPRESENTATIVES OF OTHER COMMUNITIES TO GO OVER THE CHANGES SINCE THEY HAD LAST BEEN TO THE POHA, WHICH WAS TECHNICALLY IN 2020.

SO THEY REVIEWED ALL OF THE UPDATES AND THE CHANGES WHICH, AS WE UNDERSTAND, WERE WELL RECEIVED. THEN OCTOBER 12TH LAST MONTH, THE PLANNING, ZONING AND APPEALS BOARD RECOMMEND TO APPROVE THESE FOUR PETITIONS BY VOTES OF SEVEN TO ZERO.

THERE WAS NO PUBLIC COMMENT.

ALTHOUGH THE PROJECT WAS PUBLICLY NOTICED AS REQUIRED BY OUR CODE IN THE NEWSPAPER SIGN POSTINGS AND MAILERS SENT TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN FIVE HUNDRED FEET OF THE RESORT.

THIS PROJECT, NOT ONLY THE LAND USE AND ZONING, BUT THE PKD AMENDMENT AND THE PUDI AMENDMENT ARE CONSISTENT WITH OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND OUR ELDERS.

THE EXPANSION OF THE RESORT CORE IS COMPATIBLE JUST BY NATURE OF THE EXISTING ACCOMMODATIONS OF THE RESORT AND ITS CONNECTION WITH THE GOLF COURSE.

THE RESORT SUPPORTS THE GOLF COURSE AS ONE OF ITS EXTENDED AMENITIES FOR SURE, AND THE GOLF COURSE SUPPORTS THE USE OF THE RESORT FACILITIES.

THE TWO REQUESTED WAIVERS ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING BUILT CONDITIONS OF THE HOTEL AND RESORT, AS WELL AS PREVIOUS APPROVALS.

LIKE I MENTIONED, THIS PROJECT WAS PUBLICLY NOTICED FOR ZAB AND FOR THIS HEARING IN ACCORDANCE WITH OUR CODE, INCLUDING SIGNPOSTING AROUND THE RESORT AND AT THE PGA NATIONAL ENTRANCES, AS WELL AS NEWSPAPER AD POSTINGS AND MAILED NOTICES.

AGAIN, AS I MENTIONED, PISA DID RECOMMEND APPROVAL SEVEN TO ZERO AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF ORDINANCE 13 20 TWENTY ONE FOR THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT AND ORDINANCE 14 20 TWENTY ONE FOR THE REZONING COUNCIL.

ACTION ON THE PCD AMENDMENT AND THE PUDI AMENDMENT RESOLUTION.

SIXTY AND SIXTY ONE WILL BE TAKEN AT SECOND READING OF THESE TWO ORDINANCES.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

OK. LET'S SEE, I HAVE ONE CARD AND IT DOESN'T SPECIFY WHETHER IT'S ON ORDINANCE 13 OR 14, SO I WILL CARL MR. JIM CHISHOLM TO THE PODIUM AT THIS TIME.

IS MR. CHISHOLM HERE, OK, THEN I HAVE NO OTHER ON THIS.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? WE'LL DO QUESTIONS RIGHT NOW FOR FOR KEN AND NATALIE, THEN WE'LL MAKE A MOTION AND BRING IT BACK FOR DISCUSSION ON THE PROJECT.

MARK, I HAVE A SIMPLE QUESTION WHEN IT COMES TO THE POOL, HOW DO YOU GET FROM THE I SHOULD HAVE LOOKED MORE CAREFULLY FROM THE EXISTING POOL TO THE NEW POOL.

IS THERE LIKE A PATHWAY OR DO YOU HAVE TO GO? HOW DO YOU GET FROM ONE ONE TO THE OTHER? YES, THAT IS A GENDER, IF YOU DO.

MM-HMM. I DID.

PATHWAY KNOW I CAN HELP ANSWER THAT.

I'LL SHOW YOU THE GRAPHIC SO THAT IT'S VISUAL.

ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THIS NEW POOL AMENITY AREA, THIS IS AN IMPORTANT FEATURE THAT THAT NEITHER OF US MENTIONED, BUT IT IS ON THE PLANS.

THERE IS A FIRE LANE THAT WILL BE PROPOSED AROUND THE ENTIRE AMENITY AREA.

IT WILL DOUBLE AS A GOLF CART PATH.

SO THIS PATH YOU CAN SEE RIGHT ALONG THE SOUTH SIDE HERE CONNECTS TO THE EXISTING PATH ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE RESORT.

SO THAT IS AN OPTION FOR PEDESTRIANS TO GO FROM THE EXISTING POOL TO THE NEW POOL.

ALTHOUGH THIS AREA IS FENCED IN, THERE ARE GATES OR THE OPTION IS TO GO INSIDE OF THE HOTEL, CERTAINLY AND ACCESS THROUGH THIS CORNER HERE INTERNALLY TO THE HOTEL.

OK. I HAD ASKED THAT SAME QUESTION AT A GENDER A FEW.

HOW DO YOU GET OUT TO THE NEW POOL AREA? SO IS THAT ADVISABLE TO TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE INSIDE TO GET BACK OUTSIDE WITH YOUR WET FEET AND.

YEAH. WELL, YEAH, THE OUTSIDE OPTION WOULD BE OBVIOUSLY MORE AMENABLE, BUT IT DOESN'T SEEM AS THAT ACCESSIBLE WITHOUT GOING ON THE GOLF CART PATHWAY, WHICH IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE DRIVING THEIR GOLF CARTS FROM THE RESORT TO THE.

PLUS, IT'S CHILDREN ON THE GOLF CART PATH.

SIMM, SORRY, I FORGOT TO ASK THIS QUESTION.

THAT'S OK. GOOD EVENING AGAIN, KEN.

TO IT TWO SEPARATE EXPERIENCES, THOUGH THE CROSS CONNECTS, NOT GOING TO BE AS MUCH.

[01:35:03]

SO THAT'S IT'S ALMOST TWO SEPARATE EXPERIENCE.

SO YOU WANT IT TO BE SEPARATED? WELL, YES, BUT OBVIOUSLY THERE'S STILL A WALKING PATH, THE CONNECTION, AS SAMANTHA INDICATED, BUT THERE'S NO INTENT FOR THOSE TO BE BACK AND FORTH.

THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE HAVE A QUESTION? I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.

WILL YOU CLARIFY FOR ME SO THAT THE LETTERS THAT GO OUT THE LETTER WAS SENT TO THE PEOPLE THAT WERE WITHIN 500 FEET WHERE THERE ARE OTHER LETTERS FOR TONIGHT OR FOR ZONING ALSO? OR IS THAT THE SIGNAGE THAT WE RELY ON FOR THAT? THE MAIL OR MAIL OR NOTICE WAS SENT OUT FOR PLANNING, ZONING APPEALS BOARD, AND IT WAS SENT OUT AGAIN FOR THIS COUNCIL HEARING AND IT WILL BE SENT OUT AGAIN FOR SECOND READING.

ALL RIGHT, GREAT. I HAVE A COUPLE MORE QUESTIONS THEN.

SO IF WE WEREN'T BUILDING THIS, WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THAT PLACE OTHERWISE? WE TOUCHED ON IT BRIEFLY IN MY AGENDA REVIEW.

SO IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, IT WAS IT WAS GOING TO BE LIKE A BIG, MONOLITHIC GIANT BUILDING IF IT WASN'T WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT NOW.

YES, I CAN SHOW THE GRAPHIC AGAIN.

BUT IT WAS APPROVED FOR THREE STOREY HOTEL EXPANSION AT AN AVERAGE BUILDING HEIGHT OF THIRTY NINE FEET SIX INCHES.

GREAT, THANK YOU. AND THEN THE VIEW, WE TALKED ABOUT THIS A LITTLE BIT IN AGENDA REVIEW AS WELL. I TOOK SOME TIME AT LAST.

TWICE I'VE BEEN OUT THERE TO SPEND SOME TIME IN THE BACKYARD OF THE PATIO HOMES.

AND MY ONLY CONCERN WAS, YOU KNOW, IF WE THE VIEW FROM THE SLIDE, I UNDERSTAND THE VIEW FOR THE RESIDENTS, BUT THEN THE VIEW FROM THE SLIDE, IT SEEMS LIKE THERE'S ENOUGH LANDSCAPING GOING IN THAT IF I'M A YOUNG GIRL UP ON THE SLIDE, I'M NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SEE INTO THE BACKYARD OF THE NEIGHBORS BECAUSE IT'S SO FAR AWAY.

AND THAT WAS A GREAT GRAPHIC. THANK YOU.

THAT CLARIFIED IT.

SO I JUST LIKE TO BE CLEAR, SO OUR RESIDENTS UNDERSTAND THAT IN MY LAST QUESTION IS WHY CAN'T WE MOVE THE SLIDE? MAYBE CAN. SURE.

THANK YOU, AND FIRST THING KIND OF FOLLOWING UP THE FOOTBALL, ONE THAT I SHOWED YOU BEFORE DIDN'T INCLUDE ANY TREES TO SOW, SO IT COULD DEFINITELY BE A SIGNIFICANT BLOCKAGE.

SO LET'S LET'S I MEAN, THE TOPIC IS THE NOISE OF THE SLIDE AND WHY CAN'T WE RELOCATE THE SLIDE? FIRST THING? THE MOST IMPORTANT PIECE OF EQUIPMENT, WHICH IS THE MECHANICAL ROOM, WAS PLACED IN THE FURTHEST AWAY FROM THE RESIDENCE ALL THE WAY TO THE NORTH.

THE SLIDE ITSELF WAS PLACED ON THE SOUTH, BUT THE SLIDE THE SLIDE OPERATES FROM A TIME PERIOD OF TEN AND CLOSES EVERY NIGHT AT DUSK.

THE POOL ACTUALLY IS OPEN A BIT LATER, SO IF YOU JUST KIND OF TAKE A STEP BACK AND THINK ABOUT HOW THIS IS GOING TO WORK, THE POOL ITSELF IS OPEN LATER.

THE SLIDE CLOSES EARLIER.

SO IN ESSENCE, THE AREA AROUND THE WATER SLIDE IS ACTUALLY QUIETER EARLIER IN THE NIGHT THAN THE POOL ITSELF.

SO IT ACTUALLY SOMEWHAT CREATES A BUFFER TO THE NOISE THAT IS ACTUALLY GENERATED FROM THE POOL ITSELF TO THE MOST ADJACENT NEIGHBORS TO THE SOUTH.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

CARL ANY QUESTIONS? I ACTUALLY DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, BECAUSE THAT WAS A LOT OF INFORMATION AND WE'VE GONE OVER IT AND WE GOT IT TWICE TONIGHT.

AND ALL OF MY QUESTIONS, I WILL HAVE A COMMENT WHEN THAT'S TIME, BUT I'M GOOD TO GO WITH THIS. SINCE COUNCIL MEMBER TINSLEY IS NOT HERE TO ASK HER LANDSCAPING QUESTIONS, I'M GOING TO ASK THE LANDSCAPING QUESTION, OH NO, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT, AND I'M GOING TO BASE IT ON THE FACT I WENT OUT THERE AND ACTUALLY TOOK SOME PICTURES RIGHT FROM THE RESIDENT'S BACKYARD, RIGHT ACROSS THAT EXPANSE.

WHAT EXISTS THERE NOW COMES RIGHT UP TO WHERE THAT BUILDING IS GOING TO BE DEMOLISHED, AND YOU CAN'T SEE THROUGH THAT AT ALL.

IS THAT IS THIS WHAT IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO PASS? BECAUSE IF IT IS, THEN YOU WILL NOT SEE ANYTHING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO.

YOU CAN, IF YOU CAN.

I MEAN, THIS IS IS THIS THE TYPE OF TREES AND LANDSCAPING THAT IS THAT THAT IS PROPOSED BECAUSE IT'S ALMOST A COMPLETE BARRIER? UM, I HAVE A PHOTO, ACTUALLY.

THAT'S WHAT I THAT THAT'S IT, THAT'S IT, AND THE ONLY SPOT RIGHT NOW THAT HAS NONE IS WHERE THAT STAR IS, IS WHERE THE BUILDING IS.

IF THAT'S GOING TO CONTINUE PAST, YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING.

RIGHT. SO IN THAT LOCATION THAT THE STAR IS WHERE THIS AMENITY IS GOING TO BE LOCATED AND IF WE FLIP BACK NOW KNOWING THAT LOCATION AGAIN, THE STAR ON THIS SIDE HERE YOU CAN SEE THAT THE ENHANCED BUFFER IS BEING PLACED ON THE CART PATH DIRECTLY BEHIND THAT THE PINE TREES, AS WELL AS SUBSTANTIALLY CLOSER TO THE PATIO HOMES.

[01:40:05]

ESSENTIALLY, I'LL SHOW THIS HERE AGAIN, SO PLUS MORE.

YEP. OK, SO THIS IS THE VERY THICK, VERY OPAQUE BUFFER RIGHT FROM THAT PHOTO.

WE'RE GOING TO BE ADDING PINE TREES AS WELL AS THIS ENTIRE BUFFER ON THIS SIDE.

AND THOSE PINE TREES WILL DO SIMILAR TO WHAT THAT VERY THICK BUFFER HAS NOW.

I THINK THE COMBINATION OF OF ALL THREE OF THESE AREAS AROUND THE WATERSLIDE AND THESE TWO AREAS NOW HAVE THE SAME PURPOSE.

SO YOU HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION MARK.

I'M SORRY, I DID HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION.

I KNOW THE THIS IS NOT UP FOR TALK RIGHT NOW, BUT THERE WAS A QUESTION FROM ONE OF THE RESIDENTS ABOUT FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THE RESORT AND EXPANSION OF THE RESORT.

THE IMAGE THAT YOU SHOWED US EARLIER ORIGINAL PLANS WAS TO CARRY THAT RESORT ALONG THE SOUTH END OF THE RESORT OF THE POOL AREA TO WHERE THE SLIDE IS NOW.

OBVIOUSLY THAT YOU'RE BUILDING THIS POOL AND AND PROPOSED SLIDE IF AND WHEN YOU EVER PLAN ON BUILDING BEYOND AND ADDING THOSE OTHER 81 ROOMS. IS THERE EVEN A SUGGESTION OF WHERE THEY MAY GO OR IS THAT WAY TOO PREMATURE? BECAUSE THERE WAS A COMMENT FROM ONE OF THE RESIDENTS AND SUGGESTING IT WAS GOING IN ANOTHER PATHWAY? AND AGAIN, I KNOW THAT'S NOT HERE, BUT I'M JUST KIND OF CURIOUS AS TO WHERE THAT MAY GO.

JUST ONE TO MAKE SURE THERE'S SOMETHING I DIDN'T KNOW, WE DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT TODAY. I MEAN, PGA NATIONAL HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1978 AND AS THINGS CHANGE, GOING IN THE FUTURE WHEN WE WHEN WE COME BACK BEFORE YOU FOR FUTURE ROOMS, IF THAT HAPPENS, WE WILL COME BACK BEFORE YOU HAVE A SITE PLAN.

BUT HONESTLY, WE DON'T HAVE THE ANSWER TODAY.

OK, THAT'S FINE. THANK YOU.

KEN BASS. DON'T LEAVE YET.

CAN YOU ADDRESS THE CHANGES TO THE GOLF COURSE? THERE WERE ALSO SUGGESTIONS FROM THE RESIDENTS THAT THERE WILL BE MORE GOLF CARTS, MORE GOLFERS, MORE BALLS IN THE BACKYARD.

AND I DON'T BELIEVE FROM WHAT WE'VE SEEN THAT THERE ARE SUBSTANTIAL CHANGES BEING MADE TO THE GOLF COURSE. FIRST, I THINK LET'S ADDRESS HOW FAR THE TEE BOX IS MOVING, BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONLY THING I BELIEVE ON THE GOLF COURSE THAT'S ACTUALLY CHANGING.

IT'S MOVING SIX FEET.

IT'S NOT CREATING A MAJOR CHANGE.

YOU KNOW, I CAN'T HIT A GOLF BALL FOUR FEET, BUT I KNOW SOME OF YOU CAN HIT IT A LOT FURTHER. SO THE GOLF ITSELF ISN'T CHANGING THAT MUCH.

SO THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE MORE SUBSTANTIAL GOLF BALLS IN PEOPLE'S BACKYARDS.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE ADDITIONAL GOLF CARTS.

THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE A DESTINATION FOR PEOPLE WHO LIVE WITH THEIR FAMILIES, SO THEY ACTUALLY STAY WITHIN THE RESORT INSTEAD OF GO OUT ON THE ROADS OR OR WHATEVER THE WHATEVER DIFFERENT.

IT'D JUST BE SOMETHING UNIQUE AND IT'LL BE A GREAT DESTINATION FOR FAMILIES.

THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME. YES, MA'AM.

OK, SO CAN I NOW GET ANY MORE QUESTIONS? WE'RE GOOD. CAN I GET A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE? I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 13, 20, 21 ON FIRST READING.

I'LL SECOND THAT ALL IN FAVOR.

I IN YOUR POST.

MOTION PASSES FOR ZERO.

OK, AND THEN WE'LL DO DISCUSSION AFTER ORDINANCE 14, I GUESS.

WILL THE CLERK PLEASE READ THE TITLE OF ORDINANCE 14 20? ORDINANCE 14, 2021 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA REZONING CERTAIN REAL PROPERTIES SUCH PROPERTY BEING COMPRISED OF TWO POINT ZERO EIGHT ACRES IN SIZE, MORE OR LESS AND LOCATED WITHIN THE PGA NATIONAL, IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE PGA RESORT CORE AT THE SOUTHERN TERMINATING END OF AVENUE OF THE CHAMPIONS, APPROXIMATELY ZERO POINT FIVE ZERO MILES SOUTH OF PGA BOULEVARD, PROVIDING THAT THESE PARCELS OF REAL PROPERTY THAT ARE MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN SHALL BE REZONED FROM PLANNED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PCD OVERLAY WITH AN UNDERLYING GOLF USES TO PLAN UNIT DEVELOPMENT, PEACE PUDDY OVERLAY WITH UNDERLYING HOTEL, RECREATIONAL AND INCIDENTAL FACILITIES RELATED THERETO, PROVIDING THAT THE ZONING MAP OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS BE AMENDED ACCORDINGLY, PROVIDING A COMPLEX CLAUSE OF SEVERABILITY CLAUSE AND AUTHORITY TO CODIFY PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE FOR OTHER PURPOSES.

I'M GOING TO OPEN THE HEARING.

THIS IS A QUASI JUDICIAL HEARING.

ARE THERE ANY PARTIES? I SPOKE BRIEFLY WITH MR. TUMA ON MONDAY JUST THAT HE WAS CALLING TO LET ME KNOW HE'D BE THE PERSON PRESENTING.

I ALSO SPOKE WITH MR. TOUMA ON MONDAY EVENING.

I SPOKE WITH AN BOTH MONTHS AGO AND THEN AGAIN WITH KEN THE OTHER NIGHT AND JUST A BUNCH OF RESIDENTS AND.

AND THAT'S IT. CARL AND I SPOKE WITH KEN AS WELL.

I HAVE NO CARDS ON THIS UNLESS MR CHISHOLM HAS RETURNED.

[01:45:03]

THE PRESENTATION HAS ALREADY BEEN COMPLETED.

CAN I GET A A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE? AFTER WE GET THE MOTION AND SECOND, I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 14, 20 21 ON FIRST READING A SECOND AND I WILL BRING IT BACK FOR DISCUSSION.

MARK. YEAH.

WELL, THANK YOU. I JUST WANTED TO.

I MEAN, PGA RESORT IS KIND OF THE CENTERPIECE OF OUR CITY AND A LOT OF WAYS FOR THOSE OF US THAT LIVE HERE, IT'S BEEN HERE FOREVER.

AND IT, YOU KNOW, THIS IS THE GOLF MECCA OF OF OF THE EASTERN SEABOARD.

AND FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT LIVE FROM OUTSIDE OF THE TOWN, YOU KNOW YOU COME TO PGA AND YOU THINK OF GOLF, THE HONDA CLASSIC AND ET CETERA.

I LIVE IN PGA NATIONAL OVER THERE FOR OVER 10 YEARS AND I'M A MEMBER OF THE CLUB, SO IT MEANS A LOT TO ALL OF US.

AND THREE OF US UP HERE ACTUALLY LIVE IN PGA NATIONAL.

SO I THINK, YOU KNOW, WE'RE REPRESENTING A LARGE SWATH OF OUR RESIDENTS AND OUR AND OUR FRIENDS AND ALSO OURSELVES.

SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE JUST MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS WHAT THIS KEY PIECE OF OUR CITY IS GOING TO DO AND WHERE IT'S GOING TO GO OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS.

I'M THRILLED WITH WITH WHAT YOU'VE PROPOSED.

THE RESORT WAS GETTING A LITTLE BIT OLD.

WE HAVE SPENT MANY TIMES AT THAT RESORT.

WE HAVE AN EDUCATION SEMINAR WITH MY OPTOMETRIC ASSOCIATION WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO BE THERE AGAIN IN FEBRUARY.

SO WE'RE VERY FAMILIAR WITH WITH THE RESORT.

WE HAVE GUESTS THAT COME OTHER DOCTORS THAT COME TO OUR SEMINAR EVERY FEBRUARY FROM UP NORTH JUST TO PLAY GOLF AND THEY PRETEND THEY GO TO CLASS.

SO, YOU KNOW, THERE'S THERE'S A REAL DRAW FOR THE PGA NATIONAL AND I THINK THE CHANGES THAT YOU'RE MAKING ARE GOING TO MAKE IT THAT MUCH BETTER.

BUT YOU KNOW, THIS THIS WATER SLIDE DOES HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF A SORE SPOT FOR ME, AND I'LL TELL YOU WHY. WE'VE ALSO SPENT A LOT OF TIME AT A NUMBER OF THE GOLF RESORTS AROUND THE SOUTH FLORIDA AND AROUND THE COUNTRY.

WE HAVE GONE TO THE TERM.

AND WHEN I SAW THIS, MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS THE TURNBERRY AND DOWN IN AVENTURA, THE J.W.

MARRIOTT. WE'VE BEEN THERE FOR A FEW EVENTS.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A CONVENTION THERE THIS SUMMER.

IT'S GOT THE SAME TYPE OF FEEL.

IT'S OBVIOUSLY MUCH BIGGER.

IT'S GOT TWO GOLF COURSES, WORLD CLASS COURSES.

IT'S GOT THIS FANTASTIC KIDS AMENITY WITH THE WATER SLIDES AND THE LAZY RIVER AND THE POOL. VERY, VERY COOL.

VERY, VERY FUN.

THE DIFFERENCE IS THERE COMPARED TO WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO HERE AT PGA NATIONAL.

THOSE WATER SLIDES AND THAT KID'S AMENITY IS REALLY FAR AWAY FROM THE GOLF AND IT'S REALLY FAR AWAY FROM THE RESORT.

IT'S NOT. IT'S SO I UNDERSTAND THE VALUE OF THE KIDS AMENITIES, AND I'M FULLY SUPPORTIVE OF THE POOL, THE THE LAZY RIVER, EVERYTHING THAT YOU'VE GOT THERE.

BUT IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THAT WATER SLIDE IS BEING SHOEHORNED INTO A SPOT THAT JUST DOESN'T SEEM TO FIT THIS SPOT AT THIS RESORT.

THIS IS A GOLF RESORT AND THE MEMBERS AND THE PEOPLE THAT COME THE HONDA CLASSIC, AND I HOPE THAT THE HONDA CLASSIC STAYS HERE FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS BECAUSE IT IS SUCH A DRAW IN SUCH A POSITIVE TO OUR CITY AND TO THE RESORT AS A WHOLE, BUT THAT THAT PLACEMENT OF THE WATERSLIDE, ALTHOUGH I'M NOT OPPOSED TO A WATERSLIDE IN A KID'S AMENITY, IT JUST DOESN'T SEEM TO FIT THERE.

AND THE REASON IS IS THAT I UNDERSTAND THE HOMES AND I GET IT AND I DON'T DISAGREE WITH THE DISTANCE. AND AS A SIDE NOTE, AS A FUNNY NOTE, I PLAYED GOLF WITH A BUNCH OF GUYS IN THE MEN'S CLUB. THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHO I WAS.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHO THEY WERE.

THEY WERE RAILING ON THE CITY ABOUT WHY IT WAS TAKING SO LONG TO GET THIS.

THIS PROCESS PASSED, AND I SAID, OK, LET ME TELL YOU WHO I AM.

NOT THAT IT MATTERS THAT MUCH, BUT LET ME JUST REMIND YOU WHY YOU LIVE IN PALM BEACH GARDENS, BECAUSE OUR RESIDENTS AND OUR STAFF AND THE APPLICANTS AND THE PEOPLE THAT WORK WITH THE APPLICANTS KNOW THE CITY LOVE THE CITY, WORK VERY HARD TO MAKE THIS CITY SPECIAL. SO, YOU KNOW, AFTER THAT, THEY KIND OF STOP TALKING.

BUT BUT BACK TO THE POINT, I MEAN, THESE GUYS PLAY GOLF A LOT AS AS I'D LIKE TO TRY AS WELL. AND CARL REALLY TRIES.

BUT SORRY, SORRY, MAN, I JUST HAD TO FEEL THAT THEY'RE RIGHT.

BUT BUT THE WATERSLIDE, I JUST THINK ABOUT THAT.

I PLAYED THE FAZIO ON SATURDAY.

ON SUNDAY ON PURPOSE.

I WANTED TO JUST FEEL IT AGAIN.

I'VE PLAYED IT MANY TIMES.

THE IDEA OF HAVING A WATERSLIDE LOOKING DOWN AT YOU WHEN YOU'RE ON THE RANGE, LOOKING OVER AT YOU, WHEN YOU'RE ON THE GREEN SEEING THE KIDS SCREAMING AND HAVING A GOOD TIME ON A WATERSLIDE LOOKING OVER THOSE THOSE AREAS TAKES AWAY THE VALUE AND THE THE FEEL OF A GOLF RESORT FIRST.

I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE POOL.

I DON'T THINK ANYBODY WILL, BUT WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT WHERE THAT SLIDE IS GOING TO BE AND IF YOU COMPARE IT TO OTHER GOLF AND FAMILY RESORTS LIKE THE TURNBERRY, WHERE THAT AMENITY IS REALLY FAR AWAY, IT JUST FEELS LIKE IT'S BEING STUFFED INTO A SPOT THAT DOESN'T BELONG THERE. SO I DON'T KNOW HOW THE I MEAN, I SPOKEN TO MY FRIENDS AND RESIDENTS AND OTHER MEMBERS, TOO. THEY'VE KIND OF MADE THEIR COMMENTS, AND I KNOW KEN WORKED VERY HARD TO

[01:50:02]

SO THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT UP.

AND I'M SURE YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR FROM SOME OF THE PEOPLE THAT TRY TO PLAY THERE.

BUT YOU KNOW, IF I'M COMING INTO TOWN OR IF I'M GOING SOMEWHERE WITH MY BROTHER AND FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND WE'RE GOING TO GO GOLF, I WOULD JUST BE A LITTLE BIT TURNED OFF BY SEEING THAT NOW THAT'S NOT THE CITY'S JOB, AND IT'S NOT NECESSARILY THE COUNTY'S JOB TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU CAN AND CAN'T DO WITH YOUR PROPERTY.

YOU OBVIOUSLY DONE A TON OF STUDIES AND HAVE REALLY DONE THE RESEARCH AS TO WHAT BRINGS THESE TYPES OF RESORTS TOGETHER.

BUT BEING HERE, LIVING HERE, PLAYING THERE, BEING THERE A LOT, THAT SPOT JUST DOESN'T SEEM TO BE THE PLACE FOR A WATERSLIDE.

SO I DON'T KNOW HOW THE CONVERSATION IS GOING TO GO OVER THE NEXT MONTH.

I'M FULLY SUPPORTIVE OF SUPPORTING EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE DOING HERE TONIGHT, BUT I LOOK FORWARD TO MORE CONVERSATION AS WE GO FORWARD.

THANK YOU. CARL, WHILE ADDING ON TO WHAT MY FELLOW COUNCIL MEMBER SAID, I WAS GOOD WITH THIS PROJECT RIGHT UP TO THE POINT THAT YOU MADE THE OHIO STATE BUCKEYE FIELD, SO I WILL ACCEPT YOUR APOLOGY IN ADVANCE.

HOPEFULLY YOU DID NOT OFFEND YOUR CLIENT.

YOU GOT SEVERAL FEW PEOPLE UP HERE.

SO, ALL RIGHT.

SO HAVING SAID THAT, I HAVE A DIFFERENT SPIN ON IT.

WHAT WE DO IN PALM BEACH GARDENS AND AS A CITY IS WE MAKE SURE THAT THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE HERE STAY HERE.

WE BUILD GOLF COURSES.

WE GET INGRAINED WITH DOWNTOWN AT THE GARDENS, SO WE HAVE MORE OF A RELATIONSHIP.

WE BUILD BASEBALL FIELDS.

WE HOST WORLD LEAGUE BASEBALL FOR CHILDREN.

THEY COME AS FAR FROM HAWAII, I BELIEVE, A FEW YEARS AGO.

OUR SOCCER FIELDS JUST HOSTED SOME SORT OF NATIONAL PLAYOFF.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TITLE OF IT WAS.

AND WE'RE ALSO MOVING FORWARD TO BUILDING THIS ICE SKATING RINK.

SO IT'S MULTILEVEL USE WHERE I'M SURE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO COME FROM CANADA OR ALL OVER THE COUNTRY TO PLAY COMPETITIVE.

ICE HOCKEY THERE, SO.

THE ECONOMIC VALUE OF.

IMPROVING PGA NATIONAL TO THE TUNE OF THE FIRST HUNDRED MILLION THAT I GUESS THEY'VE ALREADY SPENT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO EVERYBODY.

AND IT'S PGA NATIONAL BECAUSE IT NEEDS TO BE NATIONALLY WORLD DESTINATION AND.

IT'S IT IS I MEAN, IT IS ALL ABOUT GOLF, WE WE KNOW THAT, BUT WITHIN, YOU KNOW, OUR CITY AS A FAMILY, WE HAVE CHILDREN THAT PLAY SOCCER, WE HAVE CHILDREN THAT PLAY BASEBALL AND WE HAVE CHILDREN THAT ARE GOING TO BE COMING HERE.

AND IT'S VERY LIKELY THAT THEY WILL COME HERE MORE BECAUSE OF THE LAZY RIVER, THE ALREADY EXISTING AND MANY AMENITIES OVER THERE.

AND AND THE WATERSLIDE FEATURE.

IT GIVES THESE CHILDREN, THE YOUNGER CHILDREN, SOMETHING TO DO.

SO I THINK ON A, YOU KNOW, WE'RE BUILDING OUR NEW PAR THREE, WE GOT A LITTLE FEEDBACK ON THAT, BUT WE WANT EVERYBODY TO KNOW THAT LIVES HERE TO STAY HERE.

WE DON'T WANT THEM TO GO TO NORTH PALM BEACH OR WE DON'T WANT THEM TO GO TO THE RAPIDS OR OR WHATEVER THE WHATEVER IT IS.

SO THE VALUE TO ME OF PGA NATIONAL BEING THE BEST THAT IT CAN POSSIBLY BE, I THINK BRINGS VALUE TO OUR ENTIRE CITY.

AND IT'S ALREADY A GREAT PLACE.

AND MARK AND I WERE JUST TALKING WINS THE LOBBY GOING TO BE OPEN SOON OR IS THAT DONE YET? OK, SIR.

OK, COOL. SO I THINK FOR ME ON A MORE OF A GLOBAL.

A GLOBAL OVERVIEW OR A GLOBAL SNAPSHOT OF WHAT PGA NATIONAL IS DOING IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO EVERYBODY THAT LIVES HERE, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE AROUND THE COUNTRY ARE WORLD AND LOOK AT ALL THE THE EVERYTHING YOU HOST AT PGA NATIONAL.

IT'S IMPORTANT, YOU KNOW, A LOT.

NOT EVERYBODY PLAYS GOLF.

I DO HAVE A CONCERN OF THIS IS JUST MYSELF.

THE HONDA CLASSIC IS VERY DEAR TO OUR CITY, PROBABLY MOST EVERYBODY IN THIS ROOM.

AND MAYBE IF THERE IS A WAY THAT WE CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT LIMITING THE USE OF THE WATERSLIDE AND MAYBE THE LAZY RIVER, BECAUSE IF IT'S JUST ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT FENCE AND YOU'RE ONLY MOVING, YOU KNOW, HOLE ONE IS THERE AS WELL AS WHAT OTHER HOLES THERE MARK ONE. AND OH, THAT'S RIGHT.

SO THAT'S TRUE.

SO THE ONLY THING IS, BUT THEY DO.

THEY DO, DON'T THEY HIT BALLS.

THEY'RE DOING THE HONDA CLASSIC AS WELL.

OK, THEY'RE NOT THE BIG ONE. SO ANYWAY, YOU KNOW, JUST, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S ANY CONCERNS WHERE IT MIGHT NEED TO LIMIT THE HOURS FOR, FOR WHATEVER REASON, I JUST, YOU KNOW.

[01:55:04]

I LIKE EVERYTHING. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO THE COMMUNITY THAT PGA NATIONAL BE THE BEST IT CAN BE. AND I THINK BECAUSE OF WHERE OUR THE DIRECTION PGA NATIONAL IS GOING, IT BRINGS AN ECONOMIC IMPACT TO OUR COMMUNITY AND THAT'S BIG TO THE CITY COUNCIL.

SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU, CHELSEA.

YES, THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME AND FOR YOUR PRESENTATIONS, AND THIS REMINDS ME A LOT OF WHEN I FIRST GOT ELECTED AND WE HAD A CAROUSEL THAT CAME ALONG AND I THINK I'D BEEN IN OFFICE ABOUT THREE WEEKS AND I GOT ABOUT 60 EMAILS A DAY ABOUT THE CAROUSEL.

IT WAS BUSY, BUT AT THAT TIME OUR STAFF DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB MITIGATING IT.

THEY DID A GREAT JOB SPEAKING TO THE FOLKS AT THE LANDMARK.

THEY BROUGHT ALL THE PARTIES TOGETHER AND SO I HAVE FAITH THAT OUR, OUR CITY, OUR STAFF HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB DOING THAT AGAIN.

I. AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE CAROUSEL IS GOING TO BE NOW, EVERYBODY'S HAPPY.

WE DID IT AND I THINK WE'LL DO IT AGAIN WITH THIS.

WHAT I DO SEE MISSING IS THAT WE SEEM TO HAVE HAD A BIT OF THE FOLKS AT PGA NATIONAL NOT REALLY UNDERSTANDING WHAT WAS GOING ON.

I I I'M SO GLAD WE DID ALL THAT OUTREACH AND I'M THANKFUL FOR ALL THOSE EMAILS THAT WERE SENT AND THE LETTERS THAT WERE SENT.

AND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE BETWEEN NOW AT FIRST READING AND SECOND READING.

FOR ANY OF THE RESIDENTS WHO DON'T KNOW TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO INTERACT WITH MR. TUMOR OR WHOMEVER WHO THEY SEEM LIKE, THEY'RE MORE THAN HAPPY TO DISCUSS WHAT'S GOING ON.

I'D LOVE TO SEE THAT COMMUNICATION HAPPEN BECAUSE MY JOB, OUR JOB HERE IS TO MAKE SURE OUR RESIDENTS ARE CLEAR ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THEIR BACKYARD NOW.

THE BACKYARD, THOUGH I'VE BEEN OUT TWICE TO THE BACKYARDS AT THE PATIO HOMES, AND WHEN I WAS THERE ON MONDAY AT 2:00, THERE WERE 15 PEOPLE WANDERING AROUND.

THERE WAS A GUY WITH A COOLER, THERE WAS A GUY WITH A TENT AND I'M SURE THERE WAS A TOURNAMENT OR SOMETHING HAPPENING THERE.

THERE'S A GUY ON HIS CELL PHONE AND IT'S ALL 10 FEET, 15 FEET AWAY.

SO IF ALL THIS BUFFERING GOES IN, IT'S ACTUALLY GOING TO IMPROVE SOME OF THE PRIVACY THAT THE FOLKS IN THE PATIO HOMES MAY NOT ALREADY HAVE.

SO THE THINGS I'M CONCERNED ABOUT AGAIN, PARALLEL TO THE CAROUSEL, I DO THINK OUR STAFF WILL PULL IT THROUGH. WE DO.

I THINK EVERYONE WILL BE HAPPY IN THE END, AS LONG AS THAT COMMUNICATION TAKE PLACE TAKES PLACE. AND I WANT TO COMMEND PGA NATIONAL FOR INVESTING IN OUR ECONOMY AND OUR QUALITY OF LIFE. IF YOU LOOK AT THE FLORIDA SCORECARD.

THE CHAMBER SHARED THIS THAT WE NEED 30000 JOBS BY 2030 FOR OUR GROWTH, TOURISM AND QUALITY OF LIFE. SO THANK YOU FOR MAKING THAT HAPPEN IN A WAY THAT BRINGS IN FAMILIES, GOLF, ALL THE THINGS THAT PEOPLE CARE ABOUT.

NOW, YOU KNOW, MAYBE SOMEONE WHO LIVES IN A DIFFERENT MUNICIPALITY DOESN'T HAVE THAT ON THEIR LIST OF THINGS TO DO, BUT WE LISTEN TO OUR RESIDENTS.

WE DO AN ANNUAL SURVEY EVERY YEAR, AND RECREATION IS ALWAYS AT THE TOP, IF NOT NUMBER ONE. SO I'M PROUD OF THIS TONIGHT.

I KNOW THERE'S THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF WHAT WE CALL NIMBY, NOT IN MY BACKYARD FOR EVERYBODY, BUT I DO FEEL LIKE OUR CITY HAS DONE EVERYTHING TO MITIGATE THAT, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO EVERYONE BEING HAPPY.

THANK YOU. SO COUNCIL MEMBER MARCIANO HAS BEEN HERE 10 YEARS, AND I UNDERSTAND HIS VIEWPOINT ON GOLF.

HOWEVER, I'VE LIVED AS A RESIDENT OF PGA NATIONAL FOR THE PAST 30 YEARS.

I CAN TELL YOU, AFTER RAISING THREE KIDS SOME OF THE BEST MEMORIES WE HAVE WHERE OUR WEEKENDS AT THE PGA NATIONAL POLL.

I MEAN, IT WAS AN OUTING EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND.

AND THOSE WERE THE THINGS THAT BROUGHT US TOGETHER AS A FAMILY.

THEY WOULD HAVE LOVED.

WHAT YOU'RE PLANNING TO DO? THEY ABSOLUTELY WOULD HAVE LOVED IT.

I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE OTHER POOL AREA, WHICH IS THE ONE WE WENT TO.

OF COURSE, I THINK IT'S BEEN REDONE TWO TIMES SINCE THEN IS CLOSER TO A LOT OF THE OTHER PATIO HOMES.

THE THE THE RESORT IS NOT EXPANDING THE NUMBER OF HOTEL ROOMS, SO THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES THAT ARE COMING IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE.

WE'RE SHIFTING THE LOCATION OF WHERE THOSE FAMILIES MAY HANG OUT.

WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT NOISE, KIDS NOISE, MUSIC, NOISE, PARTY NOISE BECAUSE OF THE CITY'S CODE RESTRICTIONS ON THE POOL THAT EXISTS.

AND I DON'T EXPECT THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE ANY ON ON THIS NEW ONE EITHER.

IT'S THE SLIDE WILL CLOSE AT DUSK, WHICH MOST OF THE YEAR IS AT 5:30 P.M.

SO THE NEW AMENITY WOULD DEFINITELY SHIFT WHERE THEY PLAY.

BUT WITH ALL OF THE LANDSCAPING, THE PLANNERS, THE CONCRETE NATURE OF IT, I DON'T THINK ANYBODY'S EVEN GOING TO REALIZE THAT IT'S THERE, EXCEPT MAYBE THE GOLFERS ON ONE HOLE OF

[02:00:05]

AND I MEAN, IS IT WORTH IT TO AGONIZE OVER MOVING IT FOR ONE WHOLE OF GOLF WHEN THIS IS LESS CARL, SAID A FAMILY RESORT.

WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE FAMILIES TO COME THOSE WHO PLAY GOLF TO PLAY GOLF, BUT WE DO NEED TO OFFER OTHER AMENITIES AND NOT JUST FOR PEOPLE COMING IN FROM OUT OF TOWN, BUT FOR THOSE RESIDENTS LIKE ME WHO HAVE MEMBERSHIPS AT THE CLUB AND WANT TO BRING THEIR KIDS.

OUR OUR DEVELOPMENTS ARE GETTING YOUNGER AGAIN.

MY STREET'S GETTING YOUNGER AGAIN AND THEY DESERVE TO HAVE THE UPGRADED AMENITIES THAT WE HAD WHEN WE MOVED HERE IN PALM BEACH GARDENS.

LIKE ALL OTHER CITIES, RENOVATION MODERNIZATION AND REDEVELOPMENT HAVE TO BE AT THE FOREFRONT OF EVERYTHING WE PLAN IN ORDER TO ATTRACT BUSINESSES.

JOBS LIKE CHELSEA MENTIONED AND ENABLE ENTITIES LIKE PGA NATIONAL RESORT TO REMAIN FINANCIALLY VIABLE AND TO INCREASE OUR PROPERTY VALUES.

WHEN THE RESORT DOES BETTER AS HOMEOWNERS, WE ALL DO BETTER.

SO IN THIS CASE, THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE ZONING AND PLANS ARE ARE MUCH NEEDED FOR A RESORT THAT'S LONG BEEN THE CENTERPIECE OF OUR COMMUNITY, AND I BELIEVE THAT THE CHANGES WILL INCREASE OUR PROPERTY VALUES.

I THINK WE WILL BE ABLE TO WORK IT OUT, AS CHELSEA MENTIONED WITH WITH OUR RESIDENTS, WHEN THEY ACTUALLY GET TO SEE YOU HERE SO MUCH.

OH, IT'S COMING. IT'S A WATERSLIDE.

IT'S THIS BIG, TALL THING.

BUT UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY SEE WHAT THE PLANS LOOK LIKE AND AND PUT INTO PERSPECTIVE HOW FAR YOU ARE. I THINK A LOT OF RESIDENTS DIDN'T REALLY GET THE FULL BENEFIT OF OF THAT UNTIL TONIGHT. SO.

WITH THAT, WE WILL VOTE ON ORDINANCE 14, AND WE WILL DEAL WITH ORDINANCE SIXTY AND SIXTY ONE, THE FINAL APPROVAL ON THE SLIDE AT THE NEXT MEETING.

SO AT THIS TIME, WE ALREADY GOT A MOTION AND A SECOND.

ALL IN FAVOR I AND THE OPPOSED MOTION PASSES FOR ZERO.

TALKING. THIS.

THIS. OH.

YEAH. OK.

ALL RIGHT.

SO WILL THE CLERK PLEASE READ THE TITLE FOR RESOLUTION 55 RESOLUTION 55 TWO THOUSAND TWENTY ONE RESOLUTION.

[VIII.d. *RESOLUTION 55, 2021 – SITE PLAN APPROVAL FOR 27 SINGLE FAMILY HOMES WITHIN PANTHER NATIONAL POD 13. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, APPROVING A SITE PLAN FOR A 27-LOT SINGLE-FAMILY SUBDIVISION ON APPROXIMATELY 26.82 ACRES WITHIN THE PANTHER NATIONAL MASTER PLAN POD 13 LOCATED WITHIN THE RESIDENTIAL PARCEL (PARCEL A) OF THE AVENIR PLANNED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT (PCD) THAT IS GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF NORTHLAKE BOULEVARD, EAST OF GRAPEVIEW BOULEVARD, WEST OF BAY HILL DRIVE, AND SOUTH OF BEELINE HIGHWAY, AS MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN; PROVIDING CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.]

MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN PROVIDE PROVIDING CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL, PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE FOR OTHER PURPOSES.

I'M GOING TO OPEN THE HEARING.

THIS IS A QUASI JUDICIAL HEARING.

ARE THERE ANY EXPERTIZE? I DO. OH, SORRY, I SPOKE WITH ROSA SCHECTER.

OK. NO, I HAVE NONE.

WE WILL ASK VICE MAYOR REED WHEN SHE RETURNS AT THIS TIME.

PETITIONER PRESENT TAPE AND THE EXPERTIZE ON THE TWENTY SEVEN HOMES.

OK. UN RESOLUTION FIFTY FIVE.

OK, IT'S ALL YOURS.

ALL RIGHT. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR LITT, VICE MAYOR, REED AND COUNCIL MEMBERS.

MY NAME IS GEORGE MS. HERE TONIGHT ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT.

BEFORE I GET STARTED, I'D LIKE TO REITERATE YOUR SENTIMENTS ON FOOTBALL AND I THINK I HEARD YOU MENTION FLORIDA STATE.

SO GO KNOWLES.

SO WE'LL GET STARTED.

I DID SEE A COUPLE OF MEMBERS OF OUR TEAM COME IN AFTER THE SWEARING IN PROCESS, SO I

[02:05:03]

SO WE DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT AFTER THE FACT.

HAVE YOU BEEN SWORN IN? I'VE BEEN SWORN IN. THERE WAS A COUPLE OF MEMBERS THAT CAME IN AFTERWARDS, AND SO I JUST WANTED TO GET THAT OUT OF THE WAY IN CASE IT COMES UP IN THE LATER.

ABSOLUTELY. I CAN SWEAR THEM IN RIGHT NOW.

ALL RIGHT. DO YOU SOLEMNLY SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP YOU, GOD? ALREADY, WELL, I WILL JUMP RIGHT IN.

WE'RE HERE TONIGHT TO TALK ABOUT PANTHER NATIONAL, THE FIRST TWO RESIDENTIAL PODS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, SO OUR APPLICANT, AVENIR HOLDINGS, RECENTLY SOLD A PROPERTY TO PANTHER NATIONAL. SO THAT IS CLOSED.

OUR DEVELOPER, PANTHER NATIONAL, OUR RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECT AND KIND OF MASTER PLANNER FOR THE COMMUNITY, IS STRANGE DESIGN.

AND THEN OUR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS, LUCY AND ASSOCIATES PLANNERS ARE COTNER AND HEARING.

AND THEN OUR CIVIL ENGINEER WAS BOBBY AND ASSOCIATES.

SO TONIGHT WE HAVE TWO RESOLUTIONS DO A COMBINED PRESENTATION FOR THOSE RESOLUTION.

FIFTY FIVE FOR POD 13 APPROVING TWENTY SEVEN SINGLE FAMILY HOMES AND THEN RESOLUTION FIFTY SIX FOR POD 14 APPROVING 50 TO SINGLE FAMILY HOMES.

WE RECENTLY RECEIVED APPROVAL FOR OUR MASTER PLAN WITH RESOLUTION FORTY THREE, WHICH WAS FOR THE TOTAL THREE HUNDRED AND NINETY ONE ACRE COMMUNITY AND THEN RESOLUTION FORTY FOUR APPROVED THE GOLF COURSE SITE PLAN AND MAJOR CONDITIONAL USE.

A BRIEF REMINDER ON THE LOCATION OF PANTHER NATIONAL, AGAIN WEST OF BEELINE HIGHWAY, NORTH OF NORTH ERIC BOULEVARD WITHIN THE AVANIR COMMUNITY, WE ARE IN THE NORTHWESTERN PORTION OF THE DEVELOPABLE AREA IN AVANIR AND WE ARE A TOTAL OF TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN DWELLING UNITS AS PART OF THAT APPROVAL.

WE HAVE TWO MAIN ENTRANCES THAT ARE GATED AND THESE ARE THE ONLY GATED ENTRANCES TO THE COMMUNITY. SO THE INTERNAL PODS WILL NOT HAVE SEPARATE GATES, THEIR MAIN ENTRANCE OFF OF COCONUT BOULEVARD AND THEN ANOTHER MAIN ENTRANCE OFF OF SPINE ROAD SIX.

INTERNAL ENTRANCES TO THE PODS, YOU CAN SEE WITH THE YELLOW ARROWS.

AGAIN, THERE ARE NO GATES FOR THESE ENTRANCES, AND THEN WE'VE WORKED WITH THE CITY STAFF AND FIRE DEPARTMENT IN DETERMINING GOOD LOCATIONS FOR EMERGENCY EGRESS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ACCESS TO THE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH CONNECTS TO THE 20 FOOT FIREBREAK ON THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE COMMUNITY.

SO WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT THOSE CROSS SECTIONS REAL QUICK.

HERE WE HAVE A 40 FOOT BUFFER ADJACENT TO THAT 20 FOOT FIREBREAK EASEMENT EASEMENT FIREBREAK AREA, AND WE DO HAVE A 10 FOOT OVERLAP.

WE ARE PROPOSING A SIX FOOT CONCRETE WALL ON THE DOWN SLOPE OF THAT BERM, WHICH IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE WE'RE TRYING TO MAINTAIN THOSE SIGHTLINES LINES TO THE CONSERVATION AREA. SO IT IS A LANDSCAPED AREA.

THERE ARE NO RESIDENCES OR PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE COMMUNITY THERE, BUT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE MAINTAIN SECURITY AS WELL AS VISUAL TO THE CONSERVATION AREA.

WE DO HAVE A WATER MAIN EASEMENT CONNECTION TO LOOP PODS 13 AND 14 TOGETHER FOR WATER QUALITY. AND SO THIS SECTION OF THAT NORTHERN BUFFER LOOKS A LITTLE DIFFERENT, WHICH HAS THE WATER MAIN, AS WELL AS THAT 15 FOOT SEWER EASEMENT AND THEN A QUICK DETAIL OF THAT WALL. AND JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT, SINCE IT IS ON THE DOWN SLOPE OF THAT BERM, WE ARE PROVIDING RIP HOLES AT THE BOTTOM OF THAT WALL TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S NO PONDING BEHIND THAT WALL. ALL OF THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH WHAT WAS APPROVED ON THE MASTER PLAN.

QUICKLY, AGAIN, CONSISTENT WITH THE MASTER PLAN APPROVAL, ARE LAKE INTERFACES REALLY EXPANDING ON THAT WIDE OPEN SPACE OF THAT GOLF COURSE AND UTILIZING THAT AMENITY IN THAT VIEW FOR THESE HOMES THAT ARE ADJACENT? LOOKING AT THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN, JUST WANTED TO TOUCH ON THAT, THAT FORMAL CORRIDOR DOWN THE CENTER OF THE POD WITH A LARGE OAK TREES, AND WE'VE CREATED THESE LANDSCAPE FOCAL POINTS, WHICH ARE DOUBLING AS TURNAROUND POINTS FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES.

AND OF COURSE, WE HAVE OUR DRAINAGE TRACKS IN BETWEEN LOTS THAT ARE ALSO LANDSCAPED.

SIMILAR CONDITIONS WITHIN POD 14 HERE WITH LANDSCAPE FOCAL POINTS, AS WELL AS OUR LANDSCAPE DRAINAGE TRACT AREAS BETWEEN THE HOMES AND THEN THE QUALITY OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN IS SOMETHING THAT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT TO THE DEVELOPERS AND PANTHER NATIONAL.

SO UTILIZING VERY LARGE TREES, SO TWENTY TWO FOOT OAK TREES ALONG THE MAIN STREET HERE AND THEN OUR FOCAL POINTS USING TWENTY FIVE FOOT OAK TREES, SO VERY LARGE MATERIAL TO MAKE SURE THAT IT CORRESPONDS NICELY WITH THESE LARGER HOME SITES.

AND HERE IS A CROSS SECTION OF THAT SIXTY FOUR FOOT RIGHT OF WAY WITHIN POD 13, IT'S THE

[02:10:03]

YOU CAN SEE THE RESIDENTIAL, THE STREET LIGHTS, AS WELL AS THOSE LARGE OAK TREES AND OF COURSE, ALL OF THE DIMENSIONS THAT YOU SEE THERE.

WE DO HAVE SIDEWALKS ON EITHER SIDE OF THE ROAD TO MAINTAIN GOOD PEDESTRIAN ACCESS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY, AND HERE IS A QUICK VIEW OF OUR STREET LIGHTS.

VERY MODERN DESIGN FITTING WITH THE ARCHITECTURE AND WE HAVE MATCHED A BOLLARD LIGHT, AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN, WHICH IS LOCATED NEXT TO THE MAIL KIOSK AREAS, WHICH YOU'LL SEE IN A MINUTE. TOUCHING ON THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN AGAIN, VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WAS APPROVED WITH THE MASTER PLAN, A HEAVY NATIVE PALETTE CORRESPONDING WITH THE ADJACENT CONSERVATION AREA AND AS WELL AIDING IN THAT SUSTAINABLE ELEMENT OF THE DESIGN TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE LIMITING OUR IRRIGATION USAGE.

HERE ARE SOME CONCEPTUAL RENDERINGS THAT WE SHOWED YOU FOR THE MASTER PLAN SHOWING THAT LANDSCAPING THIS IS AT THE ENTRANCE OF POD 14 JUST TO AGAIN GIVE YOU THAT FEEL AND WHAT WE'RE VISUALIZING FOR THIS COMMUNITY TO LOOK LIKE.

AND I DID MENTION THAT THESE ARE THE LARGER HOME SITES IN PANTHER NATIONAL, THESE ARE HALF ACRE AND ONE ACRE LOTS WITHIN PODS 13 AND 14.

SO THE SETBACKS AND ALL OF THE DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS ARE WITHIN OUR PATTERN BOOK, WHICH SCOTT HEDGE WILL GO OVER IN A MINUTE, BUT MUCH LARGER SETBACKS THAN WHAT'S APPROVED FOR OTHER COMMUNITIES IN AVANIR, SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THE LARGER HOME SITES.

SO LOOKING INTO SITE DESIGN, WE'LL START ON POD 13.

WE DO HAVE 27 TOTAL LOTS, 15 HALF ACRE LOTS, WHICH ARE ALL ON THE CONSERVATION AREA TO THE NORTH AND 15 ONE ACRE LOTS FACING THE GOLF COURSE TO THE SOUTH.

OUR TOTAL ACREAGE AND TWENTY SIX POINT EIGHTY TWO ACRES.

WE DO HAVE THREE AND A QUARTER ACRES OF COMMON AREA LANDSCAPE AND OUR GROSS LOT AREA FOR EVERYTHING IS ABOUT 20 ACRES.

THE SIX FOOT WALL IN THAT DETAIL THAT WE SHOWED YOU EARLIER IS ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIMETER INSIDE THAT 40 FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER.

AND IS ADJACENT TO THE 20 FOOT FIREBREAK.

AND THIS IS THE LOCATION WHERE THAT SEWA EASEMENT COMES INTO THE COMMUNITY.

AND CAN WE HAVE A SIXTY FOUR FOOT RIGHT AWAY? OUR MAIL KIOSK IS LOCATED AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE POD INSIDE THIS LARGE OPEN SPACE, AND WE'VE DESIGNED THIS MAIL KIOSK TO BE SOMEWHAT OF A GATEWAY TO THIS OPEN SPACE AND THEN FURTHER CONNECTION TO THE CONSERVATION AREA TO THE NORTH.

SO WE'LL SHOW YOU A RENDERING OF THAT MAIL KIOSK.

THIS IS THE LARGER MAIL KIOSK IN THE COMMUNITY IN ITS SCALE BECAUSE OF THE LARGE OPEN SPACE THAT IT'S WITHIN.

IT'S A VERY MODERN DESIGN, VERY CONSISTENT WITH WHAT WE'VE PROPOSED FOR THE GUARD HOUSES, AS WELL AS WHAT YOU'LL SEE FOR THE PATTERN BOOK IN THOSE HOMES.

AND HERE'S ANOTHER ANGLE OF THAT AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THE USE OF NATURAL MATERIALS TO REALLY ACCENTUATE THAT ARCHITECTURE.

MOVING TO PART 14, WE HAVE 52 SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IN PART FOURTEEN, FORTY THREE HALF ACRE LOTS AND NINE ONE ACRE LOTS.

SKIP OVER THE ACREAGES AGAIN, CONSISTENT WITH POD 13, THE SIX FOOT WALL ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIMETER INSIDE THE 40 FOOT BUFFER, 20 FOOT FIREBREAK AND THE SU'A EASEMENT CROSSES ON THE WESTERN CORNER OF THIS POD.

WE DO HAVE THE SIXTY FOUR FOOT RIGHT OF WAY, AS WELL AS THE SECTION THAT IS FIFTY SIX FEET. AND JUST A QUICK NOTE ADJACENT TO LITT, 52, WE HAVE PROVIDED AN EIGHT FOOT WALL THAT IS THE FURTHEST POINT ON THE COMMUNITY CLOSEST TO COCONUT BOULEVARD, SO JUST SOME ADDITIONAL PROTECTION.

THERE'S A LANDSCAPING AS WELL THAT WE'VE PROVIDED FOR THAT FOR THAT LOT ALONE.

WE ALSO HAVE A MAIL KIOSK WITHIN POD 14, AS WELL AS A SEPARATE FIREBREAK ACCESS TO THE NORTH. AND SO WE'LL TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THAT.

THERE IS A 14 FOOT CONCRETE DRIVE, AS WELL AS 20 FOOT OVERALL STABILIZED STABILIZED AREA, AS WELL AS A GOLF CART, PARKING AREA AND SOME OTHER AMENITIES FOR THE COMMUNITY TO BE ABLE TO ACCESS THAT CONSERVATION AREA.

AND THEN THE MAIL KIOSK LOCATED ADJACENT TO THAT, AND IT'S INSIDE OF A SMALLER, OPEN SPACE, SO WE'VE DECREASED THE SCALE A LITTLE BIT AND IT'S STILL PROVIDED NICE LANDSCAPING AROUND IT. HERE IS A QUICK RENDERING OF WHAT THAT MAIL KIOSK LOOKS LIKE.

SO THAT BRINGS US TO THE PATTERN BOOK, WHICH SCOTT HEDGE WILL WALK YOU THROUGH, WHICH REALLY GOES OVER ALL OF THE ARCHITECTURAL INTENT AND REALLY GUIDES DEVELOPER, THE DEVELOPER AND RESIDENTIAL HOMEBUYERS TO WHAT WE ENVISION THIS COMMUNITY TO BE.

[02:15:07]

I DON'T SEE MY FRIENDS FROM LANCE STAR HERE TONIGHT, WHICH MEANS THAT OFFICIALLY WE HAVE CLOSED, SO WE ARE NOW ON OUR OWN.

BUT NO, WE'RE VERY WE'RE VERY EXCITED TO GET OVER THAT THRESHOLD.

WE'RE WORKING VERY HARD ON THIS PROJECT WITH YOUR STAFF, WITH EVERYBODY TO MAKE THIS A REALITY. AND WE'RE ONE STEP CLOSER TO DOING THAT.

SO WE'RE VERY PROUD TO BE HERE TONIGHT.

I WANTED TO WALK YOU THROUGH VERY QUICKLY OUR PATTERN BOOK, WHICH REALLY ESTABLISHES THE ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER WHICH WE HAD PRESENTED TO YOU IN OUR MASTER PLAN AND SOME OF THE ELEMENTS THAT YOU SAW THERE, WHICH WILL GUIDE US THROUGH THE THE DESIGNS FOR THE HOMES WITHIN PANTHER NATIONAL, NOT ONLY FOR THESE TWO, BUT ALSO FOR POD 12, WHICH IS THE ONE 30 ACRE LOTS. WE'RE FINALIZING THAT APPLICATION WITH STAFF AS WE SPEAK AND SHOULD BE BRINGING THAT TO YOU VERY SHORTLY.

THESE ARE THE PATTERN BOOK IN ITSELF REALLY TALKS ABOUT THE DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS OF SETBACKS OF DIFFERENT USES, ET CETERA, TYPICAL TO THE ZONING, AND WE'VE INCREASED OUR SETBACKS AND THE REGULATIONS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SIZE OF THE LOTS THAT WE HAVE FOR THE HALF ACRE LOTS, AS WELL AS THE ONE ACRE LOTS.

BUT THERE'S REALLY MORE OF A PICTORIAL GUIDE, IF YOU WILL, TO MAKE IT VERY USER FRIENDLY TO DESIGN HOMES AND MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE DELIVERING THE TYPE OF ARCHITECTURE AND THE VISION THAT PANTHER NATIONAL WILL BE.

IT'S A FIRST OF ITS KIND, MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY GATED PRIVATE COMMUNITY GOLF COMMUNITY, AND MAX STRANG, WHO IS FROM THE SARASOTA SCHOOL, BY THE WAY, HE WILL BE MAKING A PRESENTATION ON THE 11TH AT THE BREAKERS FOR THE LOCAL AREA CHAPTER IF ANYBODY'S INTERESTED. HE IS DOING A PRESENTATION ON HIS ARCHITECTURE AND HIS WORK.

IT'S IT'S VERY WELL KNOWN IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA, AS WELL AS ARCHITECTURAL COMMUNITIES, AND HIS STYLE IS NOT ONLY FROM RESIDENTIAL BUT FROM THE COMMUNITY.

AMENITIES WILL REALLY SET US APART FROM WHAT YOU WOULD SEE IN MOST OF THE OTHER COMMUNITIES. OUR DESIGN GUIDELINES ARE VERY SIMPLE.

IT TALKS ABOUT BUILDING HEIGHTS, ACCESSORY STRUCTURES, THE TYPE OF ROOF LINES, THE TYPE OF FENCES AND WALLS, FENESTRATION MATERIALS.

MOST OF THE MATERIALS AND THE THE PRESCRIPTIVE ELEMENTS WITHIN OUR PATTERN BOOK ARE NATURAL MATERIALS, WOOD STONE, OBVIOUSLY THE USE OF STUCCO AND VARIOUS WAYS, EVEN THE USE OF STONE THAT BEING SMOOTH AND OR TEXTURED WILL DELIVER DIFFERENT TYPOLOGIES OF ELEVATIONS AND THEMES.

THESE ARE ALL DICTATED VERY SIMPLY IN TERMS OF ILLUSTRATING FOR THE USER WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE OR WHAT IS PERMITTED, AND THEN, MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHAT IS NOT.

AS AN EXAMPLE, ON ROOF LINES, WE'RE NOT PERMITTING BARREL TILE ROOFS OR METAL ROOFS.

THAT'S NOT WITHIN THE CHARACTER AND THE STYLE THAT WE ARE PROPOSING FOR PANTHER NATIONAL.

SO AS YOU PICK UP THIS PATTERN BOOK, YOU'LL SEE VERY SIMPLY WHAT IT IS THAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR AND HOW TO DESIGN YOUR HOMES WITH A KIT OF PARTS THAT ARE DEFINED IN OUR MATERIALS, AS WELL AS THE ENCLOSURES, IF YOU WILL.

SO WE WE HAD A LOT OF DISCUSSION AT THE LAST MEETING ABOUT SCREENING CLOSURES.

OUR DESIGNS WILL INTEGRATE SCREEN ENCLOSURES INTO THE ARCHITECTURE AND INTO THE HOMES.

AND AS YOU SEE HERE, WHAT WOULD NOT BE PERMITTED IS A LARGER EXTERNAL SCREEN ENCLOSURES THAT YOU WOULD NORMALLY SEE IN A SMALLER HOME, IF YOU WILL.

MOST OF THESE HOMES ARE GOING TO BE LARGER.

THEY WON'T HAVE A LOT OF THAT BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE LANDSCAPING IS INCORPORATED ANYWAYS.

AND WE FEEL THAT DESIGNING THESE HOMES TO INCLUDE THOSE ELEMENTS WITHIN THEM ARE GOING TO MAKE THAT HOMES THAT MUCH MORE INTERESTING AND THAT MUCH MORE UNIQUE AS THEY AS YOU SEE THEM, NOT ONLY FROM THE HOME SIDE, BUT FROM THE GOLF COURSE SIDE.

WE DEFINE GARAGES, DRIVEWAYS, THE TYPE OF MATERIAL PAVERS, NO TABBY CONCRETE.

YES, IT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE LANDSCAPING THEMES, AS WELL AS THE ARCHITECTURAL THEMES AND THE USE OF NATURAL MATERIALS.

FENCES, WALLS, GATES AGAIN, OUR PATTERN BOOK IS REALLY A PICTORIAL GUIDE FOR EVERYBODY AS WE DESIGN OUR HOMES AND WE BRING THEM TO STAFF AND TO THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT TO REVIEW.

AND IF YOU ARE SOMEWHAT UNABLE TO DEVELOP A HOME WITHIN ALL OF THOSE GUIDELINES, BUT

[02:20:07]

WE DO NOT WANT TO MAKE IT VERY EASY FOR SOMEBODY TO BE ABLE TO PICK UP THIS BOOK AND SAY PANTHER NATIONAL WAS IN FACT A UNIQUE DEVELOPMENT, AND WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE LOOKING AT A MEDITERRANEAN OR COLONIAL HOME WITHIN OUR WITHIN OUR PATTERNS.

SO WITH THAT, I THINK WE'RE VERY EXCITED TO BE HERE.

LIKE I SAID, WE'RE STARTING OUR HARD WORK.

WE'RE LOOKING TO DO PRE APPS ON OUR CLUBHOUSE.

WE'RE WORKING VERY HARD TO COME BEFORE YOU WITH ALL OF THESE PIECES AND GET IN THE GROUND AND BE A PART OF PALM BEACH GARDENS.

SO IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

IS THERE STAFF PRESENTATION? MADAME MAYOR, STAFF PRESENTATION MUST BE REPETITIVE, SO NO PRESENTATION TONIGHT.

OK, SO LET'S DO WHAT WE DID BEFORE.

ASK QUESTIONS NOW.

THEN WE'LL GET A MOTION A SECOND BRAIN BACK FOR DISCUSSION.

ANY QUESTIONS? WHAT IS THE TIMELINE THAT YOU EXPECT TO START? WE. I DON'T KNOW IF I NEED TO SPEAK OF IT, BUT WE STARTED AND WE'VE ALREADY SUBMITTED FOR ENGINEERING PERMITS FOR THE MAIN ROADWAYS COMING IN THERE.

WE HAVE STARTED OUR PILOTS AND CIVIL ENGINEERING FOR ALL OF THE PODS THAT YOU SEE.

SO WE WE PLAN ON HAVING MOST OF THE EARTHWORK AND INFRASTRUCTURE STARTED PROBABLY EARLY FEBRUARY. SO WE'D LIKE TO GET HOMES MODELS, YOU KNOW, STARTED IN CONSTRUCTION TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR, IF NOT SOONER.

I MEAN, WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO GET OUR PERMITTING THROUGH SEACOAST, WHICH SEEMS TO BE OUR BIGGEST HURDLE TO GET THROUGH AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.

SO DON'T BLAME THE CITY.

DON'T BLAME THE CITY.

I DIDN'T SAY THE CITY DOES. AND YOU'RE LUCKY AND YOU'RE LUCKY.

YOU'RE NOT ASKING THE COUNTY FOR ANYTHING.

YEAH, THIS IS TRUE.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE. SO BUT WE ARE WE'RE FAST TRACKING EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN TO TRY TO GET OUT THERE. WE KNOW HOW WELL AVENIR IS DOING AND IN GENERAL.

SO WE'D LIKE TO JOIN THE PARTY AND THIS IS THE GOLF COURSE COMING BEFORE OR AFTER THE HOMES. THE GOLF COURSE IS STARTING NOW, SO THAT IS PART OF THE FIRST THE FIRST PUSH.

THE GOLF COURSE IS NOT WAITING FOR HOME SALES.

THE GOLF COURSE WILL BE STARTED CONSTRUCTION THIS YEAR.

TWENTY TWO, EXCUSE ME, BEING THAT THE GOLF COURSE WILL BE FOR RESIDENTS OF PANTHER NATIONAL ONLY.

HOW, IF YOU ARE, WILL IT BE USED BEFORE AND MEMBERS AND MEMBERS HAVE SOME? WE WILL HAVE A HANDFUL OF OUTSIDE MEMBERS AND WE'LL HAVE PEOPLE THERE THAT EITHER BE FROM WITHIN THE U.S. OR FROM OUT OF THE U.S., AND WE'LL PROBABLY INITIATE SOME MEMBERSHIPS THAT MIGHT BE RECALLED. BUT AS WE GO DOWN THE FUTURE IN ORDER TO GO AHEAD AND INITIATE PLAY ON THE GOLF COURSE ITSELF BECAUSE WE HOPE TO HAVE THE GOLF COURSE READY BY THE END OF THE YEAR. DOES ANY OF THOSE OUTSIDE MEMBERSHIPS RESEMBLE ANY BUDDY ON THIS SIDE OF THE DICE HERE? GOOD QUESTION.

AND THE OTHER QUESTION, I THINK MARCIE HAS A COUPLE AND I JUST I JUST HAVE ONE.

CAN YOU JUST GO THROUGH THE PROCESS FOR JUST I ALWAYS LIKE TO MAKE THINGS CLEAR, AND WE TALKED ABOUT IT A LITTLE BIT AT MY AGE UNDER REVIEW.

BUT THE PROCESS FOR SUBMITTAL, THE AARP, ET CETERA, FOR THE HOMEOWNERS.

WELL, MY UNDERSTANDING FROM THE SIT.

OH. THANKS, BRAD.

YOU'RE WELCOME. OK, SO THE PATTERN BOOK DOES INCLUDE A DESIGN REVIEW CHECKLIST OF ALL OF THE ELEMENTS THAT WE'VE DEFINED WITHIN IT, AND WE WILL INTERNALLY REVIEW AND MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF THESE LINES ARE MEET THE CHECKLIST PRIOR TO ANY SUBMITTERS TO THE CITY.

AND MY UNDERSTANDING IS THE CITY THEN LOOKS AT THAT CHECKLIST AND ALSO GOES BACK TO THE PATTERN BOOK TO MAKE SURE WE'RE CONSISTENT BEFORE ISSUING ANY PERMITS.

THANK YOU. MARS, SO ACTUALLY, YOU YOU ASKED ONE OF MY QUESTIONS, WHICH WAS IN REGARDS TO THE MEMBERSHIP OF THE GOLF AND YOU DID MENTION THAT THERE WERE OUTSIDE MEMBERS.

SO I GUESS ARE YOU DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA NOW AS TO HOW MANY OUTSIDE MEMBERS YOU'LL HAVE AND HOW THAT KIND OF WORKS, HOW MANY YOU MIGHT ANTICIPATE HAVING? WELL, WE'RE STILL WORKING ON THE ON THE STRUCTURE, BUT WE'RE WE'RE LOOKING AT APPROXIMATELY THREE HUNDRED IN TOTAL.

SO IT WON'T BE A VERY LARGE MEMBERSHIP IN TERMS OF THE PRIVATE CLUB IN TERMS OF HOW MANY OUTSIDE WE DON'T.

WE DON'T HAVE THOSE FIGURED OUT YET.

WE'RE STILL WORKING THROUGH ALL OF THE DOCKS AND HOW WE'RE GOING TO ALLOCATE THOSE.

BUT LIKE I SAID, WE DO ANTICIPATE HAVING SOME OUTSIDE THE GATE MEMBERS AT THE CLUB.

OK, THAT WAS GOOD AND ACTUALLY WHAT I LEARNED FROM STAFF, WHICH I WAS VERY IT WAS VERY INTERESTING TO ME, WHICH IS GOLF.

I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT, YOU KNOW, TRAFFIC, YOU KNOW, HAVING OUTSIDE MEMBERS AND TRAFFIC

[02:25:02]

BUT IT'S BASED ON THE NUMBER OF HOLES, NOT THE NUMBER OF MEMBERS.

SO THAT ACTUALLY WAS A LOT DIFFERENT THAN I ANTICIPATED.

BUT SINCE CHELSEA BROUGHT THIS UP, I DO WANT TO SAY THAT I, HAVING BEEN ON THE NRC COMMITTEE FOR MY COMMUNITY FOR SEVEN YEARS AND ALSO A BOARD MEMBER, I REALLY APPLAUD YOUR EFFORTS IN REGARDS TO THIS.

I LOVE THIS BOOK AND I THINK EVERY COMMUNITY NOW SHOULD HAVE THIS.

I THINK YOU SET A PRECEDENT.

IT'S IT'S AMAZING.

AND I ALSO APPLAUD YOUR YOUR NATIVE PALATE AND YOUR HARD SCAPE FEATURES AS WELL.

SO I APPRECIATE THAT AND MAKING IT EASY FOR STAFF AND ALSO FOR COMMUNITIES GOING FORWARD, YOUR COMMUNITY IN PARTICULAR, IT'S IT'S GREAT TO SEE AND I APPRECIATE THAT VERY MUCH.

I JUST HAD HAD ONE WHEN I HAD ASKED STAFF AT MY AGENDA REVIEW HOW MANY PARKING SPACES THERE WOULD BE FOR THE MALL KIOSK.

THEY SAID THAT EVERY HOME WOULD BE COMING WITH A GOLF CART.

WHAT OTHER AMENITIES ARE SPECIFIC THAT EVERY HOME HAS TO HAVE NEEDS TO HAVE? WELL, WE ARE GOING TO OUTFIT HOUSES WITH GOLF CARTS BECAUSE WE THINK THAT IT'S OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING THAT AVENIR HAS BUILT INTO THEIR COMMUNITY AND WE REALLY LIKE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BEING AT THE VERY NORTH END AND BEING ABLE TO GET INTO THE TOWN CENTER AND ALL THE THINGS THAT THEY'VE BUILT INTO THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE.

IT ALSO WORKS WITHIN THE GOLF COURSE COMMUNITY AS WELL, SO WE THINK THAT'S A BENEFIT.

WE'RE STILL WORKING THROUGH THE THE OPTIONALITY OR THE INCLUSION OF THE WHOLE TESLA SYSTEM THAT YOU MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE HEARD OF.

SO WE'RE STILL WORKING THROUGH THAT AND THE LOGISTICS RELATIVE TO THAT.

SO THAT MIGHT BE SOMETHING THAT BECOMES AN ELEMENT WITHIN OUR HOMES.

WE'RE STILL, YOU KNOW, TRYING TO WORK THROUGH THE PRICING, ET CETERA.

BUT WE THINK THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE A NEW, YOU KNOW, PROTOTYPE FOR THE COMMUNITY AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE LOOKING VERY HARD AT, VERY EXCITING FROM THE SUSTAINABILITY STANDPOINT, FOR SURE.

ONE QUESTION ABOUT THE WALL, THERE'S A SIX FOOT WALL AROUND THE BACK, BUT HOMEOWNERS ALSO THEY'RE REQUIRED TO PUT IN THE FENCING, THE ALUMINUM FENCING OR THE BLACK ALUMINUM FENCING IS OPTIONAL FOR THE HOMEOWNER.

YEAH, IT IS OPTIONAL.

THE REASON WHY WE'RE PUTTING THAT WALL THERE, OBVIOUSLY, IS THE CONSERVATION AREA IS COMPLETELY OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

SO WE DO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE SECURITY, BUT WE'VE DESIGNED IT IN SUCH A WAY THAT FROM THE RESIDENTIAL SIDE, IT'S STILL ONLY A FOUR FOOT HEIGHT, AND THE TYPICAL FENCE AROUND YOUR POOL IS A LITTLE BIT HIGHER THAN FOUR FEET FROM A SECURITY STANDPOINT.

SO IT KIND OF WORKING IT IN.

FROM THAT STANDPOINT, LANDSCAPING WILL BE THERE, SO THE WALL SOMEWHAT DISAPPEARS AND YOU WILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO PUT A SECONDARY FENCE IF YOU'RE NOT ABLE TO GET YOUR SIDE YARD FENCES ALL THE WAY THROUGH OR ACROSS TO WHERE THE WHERE THE DOWNSIDE OF THAT OF THAT WALL IS TO KEEP YOUR DOGS IN AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

SO THE HOUSES THAT BACK, THE HOUSES THAT BACK UP TO THE PRESERVE ARE ALMOST LIKE THE PRESERVE AS THEIR BACKYARD.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO KNOW ANY DIFFERENT.

THE WALL IS NOT GOING TO BE THERE.

OK, GREAT.

DO YOU HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION, THEN, IF THAT'S OK? MM HMM. OK, GREAT.

SO BY TALKING ABOUT THE GOLF CARTS, YOU GOT ME THINKING SO I THINK AVENUE'S CAPTURE RATE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FORTY FOUR PERCENT.

SO WHEN WE START TALKING ABOUT MITIGATING TRAFFIC, SINCE THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL BE AT THE END OF ONE YEAR AND WE'RE SOMEWHAT CLOSE TO THE AIRPORT WHERE WE JUST EXTENDED THE RUNWAY AND WE'RE WORKING ON COCONUT.

CAN YOU TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME OF THE OTHER TRANSPORTATION EFFORTS SO PEOPLE UNDERSTAND AND THIS IS GOING, I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M GONNA SAY THIS OUT LOUD.

THIS IS LIKE A JETSONS QUESTION.

SO WHEN WE WERE AT THE LEAGUE OF CITIES, WE WERE PRESENTED ABOUT THE LILIUM, WHICH IS THE ELECTRONIC AIR FLIGHT AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

AND IT'S PRETTY COOL BECAUSE IT'S A COMMUTER ELECTRIC JET THAT THEY'RE ACTUALLY PUTTING IN AT PALM BEACH INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AS WELL.

SO IT'S VERY QUIET.

IT'S HOW MANY HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE IN IT? EIGHT? YEAH, EIGHT UP TO EIGHT PEOPLE, INCLUDING A PILOT.

SO I DON'T KNOW.

MAYBE AS YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT TESLA AND ALL THIS FORWARD THINKING BECAUSE IT'S A FORWARD THINKING CITY THAT YOU'RE WORKING WITH.

MAYBE THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN LOOK INTO SINCE AVENIR WILL BE DEVELOPING FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE TALKED ABOUT BECAUSE WE DO LOVE THE PROXIMITY TO THE AIRPORT, THE NORTH COUNTY AIRPORT AND THE PROXIMITY, WHETHER THAT BE A HELIPAD OR SOMETHING THAT HAS A DIRECT TIE INTO THE CLUB AND THEIR GOLF COURSE AND LANDING AREAS AND THINGS THAT REALLY ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF THAT INTERACTION WITH THE NORTH COUNTY AIRPORT.

THE THINGS THAT WE'VE SPOKEN ABOUT INTERNALLY, THE KIND OF OF TRANSPORTATION YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WHO KNOWS? I HAVEN'T REALLY. IT'S A IT'S CALLED A PORT.

IT'S THE COOLEST THING. YEAH, YEAH.

YEAH, THOSE ARE OBVIOUSLY THINGS THAT WE ARE LOOKING WELL BEYOND JUST, YOU KNOW, BUILDING THE HOMES IN THE COMMUNITY AND THINGS THAT REALLY SET US APART ARE ALL OF THE ELEMENTS

[02:30:05]

ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO IMPROVE SAFETY AND DECREASE TRAFFIC ON NORTH BOULEVARD WOULD BE APPRECIATED. WELL, WE FEEL THAT COCONUT GOING THROUGH TO THE BEE LINE IS REALLY OUR FRONT DOOR. OKAY, WE ARE GOING TO BE BRINGING A LOT OF PEOPLE FROM THE NORTH HERE INTO IT AND TRYING TO ALLEVIATE A LOT OF THE TRAFFIC THAT KEEP SAYING THAT.

I LIKE THAT. GOOD ANSWER.

OK, WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER REED WAS TALKING ABOUT IS IT IS A SEPARATOR FOR SURE, AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT ELEMENT AT THE NORTH COUNTY AIRPORT, A HUB THERE AS WELL FOR ALLEVIATING TRAFFIC AND A VERY THOUGHTFUL WAY.

AND ONE OTHER COMMENT, WHICH WAS IN REGARDS TO YOUR UTILITY EASEMENTS, I THOUGHT IT WAS VERY INTERESTING HOW YOU PUT LANDSCAPE.

YOU BOUNDED THE UTILITY EASEMENT WITH LANDSCAPE BUFFER, A SMALL SHRUB, WHICH TO ME WAS A PRETTY THOUGHTFUL REMINDER THAT THIS IS NOT YOUR PROPERTY AND IT'S ALSO A SECURITY, A THOUGHTFUL WAY TO DEAL WITH SECURITY AS WELL.

SO I THOUGHT THAT WAS PRETTY CLEVER.

OK. WELL, ANYBODY ELSE QUESTIONS, WE'RE GOOD.

ALL RIGHT, SO I NEED A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE.

I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE OUR SECOND.

I WILL NOW BRING IT BACK FOR DISCUSSION.

NO, ANY ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION ON THIS.

AND I THINK IT'S GOOD. YEAH.

I THOUGHT MARCIE, YOU WERE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE FIREBREAK AND THE SAFETY OF THAT AND HOW IMPRESSIVE IT WAS.

DO YOU WANT TO? I'M SETTING YOU UP.

IF YOU WANT IT. IT'S ALL THIS.

ALL RIGHT. I THINK WE'RE GOOD.

YEAH, OK.

NO, IT'S IT'S DEFINITELY A NEW ADDITION TO TO PALM BEACH GARDENS SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE NOT SEEN BEFORE AND A GREAT ADDITION AT THAT.

SO, ALL RIGHT, ALL IN FAVOR I AND HE OPPOSED MOTION PASSES.

FIVE ZERO.

WILL THE CLERK PLEASE READ THE TITLE FOR RESOLUTION FIFTY SIX RESOLUTION FIFTY SIX TWO THOUSAND TWENTY ONE A RESOLUTION IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, APPROVING A SITE PLAN FOR A 52 SINGLE FAMILY SUBDIVISION ON APPROXIMATELY FORTY

[02:35:06]

ARE THERE ANY EXPERTIZE PARTIES ON RESOLUTION? SIXTY TWO? I DIDN'T SPEAK WITH ANYONE.

I SPOKE WITH A LOT OF OTHER RESIDENTS WHO WHO DID YOU SPEAK WITH? WHERE ARE YOU GUYS? OK, SO FIRST OFF, I HAD THIS MY MY MEETINGS ON THIS PARTICULAR BUILDING BECAUSE OF WHAT IT IS TO US IN THE COMMUNITIES GO BACK A LONG WAY.

SO I'VE HAD A MEETING WITH JOEY EICHNER MANY MONTHS AGO.

THEN I HAD A MEETING WITH DAN CARL, FUMO AND JOEY AT THE SAME TIME.

THEN I HAD A MEETING WITH TODD.

IS IT FABRIC OR FABRIC? OK? AND THEN I HAD A TELEPHONE CONVERSATION WITH DAN IN THE LAST WEEK.

SO THAT'S MY QUASI ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE.

MARC? YEAH, I HAD TALKED TO JOEY EICHNER ABOUT EIGHT OR NINE MONTHS AGO AND THEN AGAIN A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, BRIEFLY AT THE CHAMBER BREAKFAST AND I HAD AN OFF THE CUFF CONVERSATION WITH DAN COUNCILWOMAN AT THAT SAME BREAKFAST LAST WEEK.

THANKS. I HAVE NONE.

NO, NOBODY CALLED ME.

I BRIEFLY SPOKE WITH JOEY EICHNER AT A CORRIDOR EVENT.

OK. MR. HERRING. WELL, GOOD EVENING, MADAM MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR THE RECORD, DONALDSON HEARING AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN WITH ME ALSO FROM COTLER AND HEARING AS GEORGE MR., WHO WILL BE MAKING THE PRESENTATION BECAUSE HE WILL BE MUCH SHORTER THAN I WOULD OTHERWISE BE. BUT I DID WANT TO SAY THAT WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT PJ STATION.

TO ME, I'VE KNOWN THIS AS PARCEL 5B SINCE NINETEEN NINETY NINE AND HAVE WORKED ON THIS PARCEL FOR OVER 20 YEARS, AND IT'S BEEN SUCH AN HONOR AND PLEASURE TO SEE IT REALLY EVOLVE TO SOMETHING REALLY SPECIAL, SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO BE A PART OF THE CITY, THE CORE OF THE CITY THAT'S GOING TO CONTINUE TO PROMOTE MOBILITY WITH FPL COMING, YOU KNOW, COMING OUT OF THE GROUND AND HOPEFULLY OPENING UP SOON.

THIS PROJECT AND AND THE WORKPLACE ACTIVITIES THAT ARE OCCURRING HERE THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT WITH CBC, WITH TIRE KINGDOM, WITH THE BROK'S HOTEL.

IT REALLY IS WORLD CLASS AND IT'S BEEN EXCITING TO BE A PART OF THE PROJECT AND WE CERTAINLY WILL BE AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY OF YOUR QUESTIONS.

OUR WHOLE DEVELOPMENT TEAM IS HERE.

AND TO WHAT? I'LL LET GO AHEAD, GEORGE, SHARE WITH YOU.

HE'S WORKED ON IT FOR THREE YEARS, GEORGE.

I'VE WORKED ON IT FOR 20, SO BUT HE HAS A LOT OF INFORMATION TO SHARE.

TAKE IT AWAY, GEORGE. THANK YOU, SIR.

GOOD EVENING AGAIN, GEORGE MS., FORMER WITH COLLARING HEARING HERE ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.

SO AGAIN, MANY MEMBERS OF OUR TEAM ARE HERE TONIGHT, THE APPLICANT AND THE OWNERS OF THE PROPERTIES, PGA BUILDING SIX AND BUILDING NINE CATTLE FUMO PROPERTY COMPANIES AND HIS PARTNERS HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT SINCE THEY REPURCHASED IT, BRINGING BUILDING FOUR TO LIFE AND BRINGING IN MANY MORE TENANTS TO THE SITE AND PUSHING FORWARD FOR THIS AMENDMENT.

THEY PARTNERED WITH THE RICHMOND GROUP FOR THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION FOR MANY REASONS, MAINLY THE QUALITY OF THEIR DEVELOPMENTS, THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND THE FACT THAT THEY DESIGN, CONSTRUCT AND MANAGE THEIR OWN PROPERTIES.

THEY DON'T BUILD IT AND SELL IT TO ANOTHER PERSON TO MANAGE, SO IT MEANS A LOT TO THEM, THEIR LIFE PARTNER ON THIS PROJECT.

OUR ARCHITECTS WORK AND PARTNERS DESIGNING THE OFFICE AND COMMERCIAL PORTIONS.

AND THEN CORNWALL ARCHITECTS DESIGNING THE RESIDENTIAL.

THEY ALSO DESIGNED THE SOLAIRE PROJECT IN PALM BEACH GARDENS SCOTLAND AND HEARING WE ARE THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS AND PLANNERS FOR THE PROJECT AND OUR CIVIL ENGINEER, SIMMONS AND WHITE. KIMBERLY HORNE ALSO WAS OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER FOR THE PROJECT.

A SUMMARY OF OUR REQUEST WE ARE BRINGING IN THREE HUNDRED AND NINETY SIX UNIT APARTMENT STYLE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING.

WE ARE PROPOSING 10 PERCENT OF THOSE UNITS TO BE WORKFORCE HOUSING.

WE ARE PROPOSING A TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT OFFICE BUILDING IN POD C, AS WELL AS A DETACHED NINE HUNDRED AND NINETY EIGHT SPACE PARKING GARAGE WITH LINER RETAIL TOTALING ABOUT SEVEN THOUSAND SQUARE FEET.

AND WE ARE PROPOSING TO UPDATE THE EXISTING ARCHITECTURE OF BUILDING NINE, WHICH LIES BETWEEN THOSE TWO BUILDINGS AND CURRENTLY IS NOT CONSISTENT ARCHITECTURALLY.

SO WE WANT TO UPDATE THAT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT MATCHES THE NEW BUILDINGS.

NOW, I WANTED TO START WITH THIS.

THIS IS OUR 3D RENDERING HIGHLY ACCURATE AS FAR AS LANDSCAPING TO BRING THIS TOGETHER AS THE FULL VISION. THIS IS WHAT WE ARE AIMING TO DO.

THIS IS WHAT WE'VE WORKED SO HARD WITH CITY STAFF TO COME TO THIS FINAL PRODUCT IN CREATING THIS, THIS GREAT NEW ADDITION TO THE CITY, WHICH IS BOTH SUPPORTED AND BENEFITED

[02:40:01]

SUFFICE IT TO SAY THAT THERE'S BEEN A GREAT EVOLUTION THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF THE PROJECT, BRINGING IN NEW USES MANY CHANGES, ALL FOR THE BETTER.

AND WE FEEL THAT THIS LATEST ADDITION TO THE DEVELOPMENT IS A GREAT STEP FORWARD AND PROVIDING MORE SUSTAINABILITY, INCREASED MIXED USES AND REALLY BENEFITING THE CITY.

I WANTED TO TALK BRIEFLY ABOUT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT, WHICH THIS PROPERTY LIES WITHIN, AND SOME OF THOSE POLICIES THAT THE CITY IS SET OUT PRIOR TO THIS DEVELOPMENT.

AND WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT IN MIND, SO GENERALLY LOCATED WITHIN A HALF MILE OF THAT PLANNED RAIL TRANSIT STATION.

PROVIDING A MIXTURE OF USES, BOTH RETAIL, PERSONAL SERVICES, OFFICE, HOTEL AND RESIDENTIAL. PROVIDING INTERESTING AND ENTICING PUBLIC GATHERING PLACES.

HAVING COMFORTABLE OUTDOOR ACTIVITY IN WEATHER PROTECTION.

AND THEN PROMOTING ENERGY EFFICIENT LAND USE PATTERNS AND REDUCING GREENHOUSE GASES WITH SUSTAINABLE ELEMENTS.

SO POINTING OUT SOME OF THOSE FEATURES HIGHLIGHTING THE LOCATION OF THAT RAIL TRANSIT STATION VERY CLOSE IN PROXIMITY TO THE PROJECT.

WE HAVE A MIXTURE OF USES HITTING ALMOST EVERY ONE OF THEM IN THE LIST, A HOTEL, MEDICAL OFFICE, OFFICE, RESIDENTIAL AND RETAIL.

AND THEN PROVIDING THOSE INTERESTING PUBLIC GATHERING PLACES TO ACTIVATE THE STREET AND REALLY PROMOTE THAT OUTDOOR ACTIVITY.

AS WELL AS PROVIDING WEATHER AND WEATHER COVERING, SO LOOKING AT SUSTAINABILITY, WHILE THESE BUILDINGS HAVE NOT BEEN DESIGNED TO MEET LEED STANDARDS OR GREEN STANDARDS, WE ARE INTEGRATING A LOT OF THE ELEMENTS THAT THEY LOOK FOR.

SO MORE SPECIFICALLY, HIGH EFFICIENCY WINDOWS UTILIZING A PRECAST CONCRETE MATERIALS, ELECTRIC VEHICLE, CHARGING STATIONS WITH HIGH EFFICIENCY RESTROOM FIXTURES AND AUTOMATIC LIGHT SENSORS IN THE BUILDINGS AND IN THE PARKING GARAGES.

BUT LOOKING MORE BROADLY TO PROVIDING AGAIN THAT MIXTURE OF USES THE BUILDING MASS AND BRINGING IN THAT EXTRA DENSITY AND SUPPORTING WALKABILITY AND CONNECTIVITY WITH THE REST OF THE CITY IN THIS HEART OF THE TOD DISTRICT.

SO ZOOMING OUT THE PROJECT LOCATION IN THE CENTER OF THE CITY, JUST SOUTH OF PGA BOULEVARD, EAST OF I-95 AND JUST ON THE WEST SIDE OF ALT., A WINDY.

SO UP UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO, THIS WAS WHAT THE EXISTING CONDITION OF THE PROJECT LOOK LIKE. YOU SEE, BUILDING 10 THERE, THE 80000 SQUARE FOOT OFFICE BUILDING HAS BEEN DEMOLISHED. SO THAT COMMITMENT HAS BEEN MADE BY CATACOMB, BY MR. CARL FUMO AND HIS PARTNERS TO REMOVE THAT BUILDING TO MAKE WAY FOR THE RESIDENTIAL.

AS SOON AS WE POSSIBLY CAN.

AND THEN HERE, I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THIS IS THE EXISTING APPROVED SITE PLAN FOR PJ STATION SHOWING TWO SIXTY FOUR THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT BUILDINGS IN POD C SEPARATED BY A PARKING GARAGE.

AND THIS DIDN'T FACILITATE AS MUCH THE LOCATION OF THE RAIL TRANSIT STATION AND INCREASING THE BENEFIT OF HAVING THAT STATION NEXT TO THIS DEVELOPMENT.

AND THEN AGAIN, TO HIGHLIGHT THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN, HIGHLIGHTING THE LOCATION OF THE RESIDENTIAL UNITS ADJACENT TO ALL THE OTHER USES, AS WELL AS THE LOCATION OF THE NEW OFFICE BUILDING AND PARKING GARAGE, PROVIDING A STRONGER VIEW CORRIDOR TO THAT TRANSIT STATION AND BEING MORE CONNECTED TO THAT.

SO IN THE FUTURE, WE COULD HAVE THAT BENEFIT.

LOOKING BRIEFLY AT THE CHANGES IN USE SQUARE FOOTAGES THAT WE'RE PROPOSING WITH THIS PROJECT, THE BLACK NUMBERS REPRESENTING THE NEW TOTALS FOR EACH USE AND THE RED REPRESENTING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE PREVIOUS APPROVED PLAN.

SO LOOKING THROUGH PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL AND SHOPPING CENTER RETAIL AND RESTAURANT, IT'S ESSENTIALLY A WASH OF SQUARE FOOTAGE FROM WHAT WAS PREVIOUSLY APPROVED, THE MAIN INCREASE IN DENSITY COMING WITH THE RESIDENTIAL UNITS IN THE NEW BUILDING.

10. SO OUR NEW TOTAL REQUIRED PARKING SPACES IS TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN, AND AT BUILD OUT WE WILL HAVE TWO THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND FORTY THREE, SO MORE THAN ENOUGH PARKING FOR THE ENTIRE DEVELOPMENT WITHOUT THE USE OF SHARED PARKING.

AND THIS WAS INTENTIONAL IN THE FACT THAT WE'RE TRYING TO SET UP THE BENEFIT OF THAT RAIL TRANSIT STATION AND PROVIDING SOME ADDITIONAL PARKING SO THAT WHEN THAT STATION COMES IN

[02:45:01]

WELL, MOST LIKELY WILL NOT BE ENOUGH TO FULLY SUPPORT THAT STATION.

WE'RE TRYING TO PROVIDE THAT FURTHER INCENTIVE THAT WE ARE READY FOR IT AND WE DO HAVE SOME OPPORTUNITIES TO PROVIDE MORE PARKING WITHIN OUR POD SEE GARAGE.

SHOULD THAT COME TO PASS AND WE'LL GO OVER THAT A LITTLE BIT LATER.

WE DID WORK WITH STAFF ON THE PHASING OF THE PROJECT WITH AN EXISTING DEVELOPMENT.

OBVIOUSLY, IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING TO COME FIRST.

IS YOUR LAY DOWN AREA AND THOSE SORT OF ELEMENTS.

SO OUR PRIMARY STRATEGY RIGHT NOW IS FOR THE RESIDENTIAL UNITS TO BE CONSTRUCTED FIRST UTILIZING THE VACANT POD SEE PROPERTY AS THE LAY DOWN AREA.

SO THAT BENEFITS THE ENTIRE DEVELOPMENT, NOT DISRUPTIVE TO THE GREATEST EXTENT POSSIBLE, AND JUST WANTED TO QUICKLY DIRECT YOU TO THE GREEN AREAS, WHICH IS OUR PHASE ONE MAKE WAY FOR THAT FIRST RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION AND THAT IS CURRENTLY UNDERWAY.

THE LAKE EXPANSION IS ACTUALLY SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE, AND THE INGRESS EGRESS ADJUSTMENT BETWEEN BUILDINGS 11 AND 11 A IS UNDERWAY AS WELL.

AND HERE ARE SOME PHOTOS OF THAT.

JUST QUICKLY TO SHOW YOU HOW WE'VE BEEN MAKING PROGRESS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN MAKE THIS PROJECT A REALITY.

WE HAVE WORKED WITH STAFF TO COME UP WITH THE DESIGN GUIDELINE DOCUMENT FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT, WHICH ACTS AS OUR ZONING CODE WITH ALL THE VARIOUS OVERLAYS AND THE NEW TOD DISTRICT, THERE IS NOT A SPECIFIC ZONING CODE THAT APPLIES TO THIS PROPERTY.

SO THIS COMBINES A LOT OF THE DIFFERENT CODE SECTIONS ALREADY IN PLACE WITHIN THE CITY TO PROVIDE THAT STANDARD, TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DOING THE BEST THAT WE CAN AND IMPROVES UPON SOME OF THE CODE SECTION, PROVIDING SOME ADDITIONAL ELEMENTS TO BE PROVIDED.

AND WE TALK AND TALK ABOUT CONNECTIVITY AND AND PEDESTRIAN WALKABILITY.

AND SO I WANTED TO SHOW THIS GRAPHIC SHOWING THE VEHICULAR ACCESS POINTS AS WELL AS THE PEDESTRIAN ACCESS POINTS.

SO WITH CONNECTIVITY, SUCH A LARGE FACTOR IN DEVELOPMENT OF THIS DENSITY IN THIS LOCATION, MAKING SURE THAT BOTH INTERNALLY WE HAVE ENOUGH CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN BUILDINGS AND USES, AS WELL AS EXTERNALLY TO THE OUTSIDE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE AGAIN CONNECTING TO SURROUNDING PROPERTIES TO THE NORTH AND TO THE SOUTH.

AND LOOKING AT SOME OF THOSE MAIN PASSAGEWAYS, LOOKING AT RCA BOULEVARD, AGAIN, THIS IS AN EXISTING PLACID ROADWAY.

BUT WE ARE MAKING SOME IMPROVEMENTS.

SO THE ROADWAY ITSELF REMAINING CONSISTENT WITH ITS EXISTING CONDITIONS WITH BIKE LANES.

THE TWO WAY TRAVEL WITH THE CENTER MEDIAN, WE ARE PROPOSING EIGHT AT LEAST EIGHT FOOT SIDEWALKS ON BOTH SIDES.

AND ACTUALLY IN THIS SECTION, YOU CAN'T REALLY SEE IT.

BUT ON THE EAST SIDE, NEXT TO THE OFFICE BUILDING, WE'RE AT NINE FEET.

AND THEN ANOTHER CROSS SECTION JUST TO THE SOUTH, A LITTLE BIT CLOSER UP.

YOU CAN SEE THAT THAT PEDESTRIAN WALKABILITY AND WITH THOSE AMENITIES THAT WE'RE TRYING TO INCORPORATE TO REALLY MAKE SURE THAT THIS DEVELOPMENT FUNCTIONS PROPERLY.

AND WE DO HAVE SEVERAL WAIVERS REQUESTED WITH THIS PROPOSAL.

A TOTAL OF SIX ALL SUPPORTED EXCEPT FOR WAIVER NUMBER THREE, AND WE'LL GO THROUGH EACH OF THEM BRIEFLY.

WAIVER NUMBER ONE IS FOR ONE ADDITIONAL PRINCIPAL TENANT.

WE'RE BUILDING ID SIGN ON BUILDING SIX, OUR LARGE OFFICE BUILDING.

SO THESE SIGNS ARE PROPOSED ON THE WEST, NORTH AND EAST ELEVATION, SO RESPECTIVELY, FACING I-95, PGA BOULEVARD AND ALTERNATE A1A.

THE SECOND WAIVER IS FOR TWO RESIDENTIAL ID SIGNS ON THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING, CURRENT CODES DO NOT PERMIT SIGNAGE ON RESIDENTIAL APARTMENT BUILDINGS.

AS I DISCUSSED PREVIOUSLY WITH THE RICHMOND GROUP DESIGNING, CONSTRUCTING AND MANAGING THEIR PROPERTIES, IT'S A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF OUR INTEREST TO THEM IN HAVING SIGNAGE IN THEIR TENANT RECRUITMENT, ESPECIALLY IN A HIGH TRAFFIC AREA.

AND THEN WE ARE PROPOSING TO PROJECT ID SIGNS ON THE PARKING STRUCTURE IN PODS.

THESE ARE NOT INTENDED AS TENANT SIGNAGE.

IT'S INTENDED TO IDENTIFY THE PROJECT AND SET THE STAGE FOR THE FUTURE RAIL TRANSIT STATION OR WAIVER.

NUMBER FOUR IS FOR A SMALL SECTION ABOUT TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY FEET OF OUR EASTERN BUFFER, WHICH IS ADJACENT TO THE FEC RIGHT OF WAY, WHERE WE HAVE A NUMBER OF EXISTING UTILITY EASEMENTS AND UTILITIES THAT ARE ENCUMBERING OUR LANDSCAPE BUFFER.

AND THEN WE WERE NUMBER FIVE IS FOR THE UTILIZATION OF THE URBAN LAND INSTITUTE METHODOLOGY FOR SHARED PARKING, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH OTHER WAIVERS, HAS BEEN APPROVED IN THE CITY. IT'S JUST A MORE PRECISE HOUR BY HOUR BREAKDOWN OF SHARED PARKING.

AND THEN FINALLY, TO ALLOW TWENTY THREE COMPACT PARKING SPACES WITHIN THE PARKING STRUCTURES. SO RESPECTIVELY SIX WITHIN POD SEE GARAGE AND 17 WITHIN THE RESIDENTIAL GARAGE. SO WE'LL LOOK CLOSELY AT SOME OF THE SITE DETAILS FOR POD C AND THEN LATER WE'LL

[02:50:05]

SO WE'VE INCREASED THE SIZE AND WE'VE HAD TO DESIGN IT TO NEW SPECIFICATIONS FROM SEA COAST. SO YOU'LL NOTICE THAT THERE'S NO LONGER A ACCESS ONTO RCA FOR SEACOAST.

THEY ACTUALLY HAVE A FULL LOOP AND ACCESS EASEMENT TO BRING IN THEIR LARGER VEHICLES TO SERVICE THIS LIFT STATION, AS WELL AS THERE'S ROOM FOR A GENERATOR IN THE CASE OF A POWER OUTAGE. MS. IS ALSO THE LOCATION OF OUR WAIVER FOR THE BUFFER.

YOU'LL SEE THESE ARE THE EXISTING UTILITIES AND UTILITY EASEMENTS THAT RUN ADJACENT TO THIS AREA, SO WE HAVE PROVIDED GROUND COVERS AND SHRUBS IN THIS BUFFER LOCATION, BUT TREES, WE JUST COULDN'T FIT IN THE AREA.

BUT WE HAVE PROVIDED AN ADDITIONAL ISLAND NEXT TO THE LITT STATION TO HELP SCREEN THAT AREA, AS WELL AS PROVIDED AN ARTIFICIAL GREEN WALL ON THE ACTUAL FENCING OF THE LIFT STATION FOR FURTHER SCREENING.

AS WELL AS WE'VE DESIGNED VERY INTENTIONALLY THE LANDSCAPE AROUND THE GENERATOR BUILDING.

AS YOU'LL SEE FROM THIS RENDERING, THE ARCHITECTURE OF THAT GENERATOR BUILDING IS RATHER ENHANCED, VERY MODERN, VERY CONSISTENT WITH WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING ON THE OFFICE BUILDING, WHICH YOU'LL SEE IN A MOMENT.

SO I SPOKE EARLIER ABOUT HOW THE EXISTING SITE PLAN DIDN'T REALLY CORRESPOND AS MUCH TO THE LOCATION OF THAT RAIL TRANSIT STATION, SO SOMETHING THAT WE REALLY WANTED TO ENSURE IS, YOU KNOW, WE'RE CREATING A GATEWAY TO THE CITY IN THIS LOCATION IN THE EVENTUALITY THAT A STATION COMES TO THIS LOCATION.

SO PROVIDING THAT VISUAL CORRIDOR FROM BOTH THE STATION OUT AND FROM PEOPLE COMING TO THE STATION IN BOOKENDED BY OUR PUBLIC ART FEATURES, WHICH WE'RE PROPOSING, WE DO HAVE AN ART AND PUBLIC PLACES APPLICATION UNDER REVIEW, WHICH WE HOPE TO BRING BEFORE THE BOARD SOON AND THEN FURTHER LOOKING AT THE CIRCULATION OF THE SITE.

SO IN THE EVENT THAT A STATION COMES, WE HAVE DESIGNED THE NORTH LOOP, WHICH WE JUST WENT OVER TO ACT.

IS THAT DEDICATED DROP OFF AREA FOR THE STATION, FOR EITHER A BUS SHELTER OR FOR RIDESHARE FACILITIES.

AND WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE A COVERED PATH FROM THAT LOOP TO THE TRAIN STATION SO WE COULD REDIRECT A LOT OF THAT TRAFFIC.

BUT BEYOND THAT, MAKING SURE THAT THIS SECTION WORKS, MAKING SURE THAT OUR CIRCULATION IN THE GARAGE WAS VERY EFFICIENT AND VERY LOGICAL FOR PEOPLE DRIVING IN.

FINDING THE RANT, NAVIGATING THEIR WAY UP EITHER OUT BACK TO RCA OR BACK AROUND AND LOOPING AGAIN.

WE HAVE PROPOSED SEVERAL RIDESHARE DROP OFF AREAS IN FRONT OF ALL THE NEW BUILDINGS, SOMETHING THAT WAS VERY INTENTIONAL IN MAKING SURE THAT THOSE FACILITIES WOULD HAVE AN AREA THAT THEY COULD GO.

RATHER THAN JUST STOPPING ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET AND LETTING SOMEONE OFF, THEY COULD PULL OFF AND ALLOW SOMEONE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE SAFELY.

NOW, PEDESTRIAN CIRCULATION FROM THE GARAGE, SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT WE WANTED WE COULDN'T PROVIDE A BRIDGE OF SKY BRIDGES, IF YOU WILL, BETWEEN THE VARIOUS OFFICE BUILDINGS, BUT WE WANTED TO INTEGRATE A COVERED PASSAGEWAY.

AND WE'VE INTEGRATED THIS ARTISTIC COVERED WAY FROM THE GARAGE TO BOTH BUILDING SIX AND BUILDING NINE, AS WELL AS IN FRONT OF THE RETAIL PORTION OF THE GARAGE.

AND WE'VE INTEGRATED A ADDITIONAL ELEVATOR IN THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE GARAGE, AND THIS IS DONE, IT'S NOT NEEDED AT THIS TIME, BUT AGAIN, LOOKING FORWARD TO THE FUTURE, IF A RAIL TRANSIT STATION COMES PROVIDING THAT EFFICIENT ACCESS FROM THE GARAGE TO THE ELEVATOR DOWN, THEY DON'T HAVE TO CROSS ANY DRIVE AISLES AND THEY CAN GET RIGHT ON THE TRAIN. IF THEY WERE TO TRY TO DO THIS LATER, IT JUST WOULDN'T BE POSSIBLE TO ADD ANOTHER ELEVATOR IF WE DESIGN THIS CRASH WITHOUT IT NOW.

AND THEN INTEGRATING AMENITY AREAS ADJACENT TO THE LAKE AND MONETIZING THAT LAKE IS A REALLY IMPORTANT FEATURE TO THIS TO THIS POD.

SO HERE YOU CAN SEE A CROSS SECTION OF WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE WITH A PATHWAY ADJACENT TO THE RETAINING WALL WITH A RAILING, NICE LANDSCAPING AND BENCHES, AND THERE'S EVEN A COVERED TRELLIS AT THE END LOOKING OUT OVER THE LAKE.

AND, OF COURSE, PEDESTRIAN PLAZAS EVERYWHERE WITH LOTS OF INTEGRATED LANDSCAPING THAT'S ALL BEEN DESIGNED TO ARTICULATE THE BUILDING, ACCENTUATE THAT ARCHITECTURE, WHICH HAS BEEN SO CAREFULLY DESIGNED.

SO HERE WE ARE BACK AT OUR FULL VISION OF WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE.

AND THEN HERE IS THAT CORD OR THAT VIEW LOOKING STRAIGHT DOWN DESIGN CENTER DRIVE TOWARDS PAD C IN THAT GATEWAY THAT WE'VE WORKED SO HARD TO CREATE.

THIS IS A VIEW OF THE NORTH SIDE OF BUILDING SIX.

YOU CAN SEE THAT CONTEMPORARY STYLING WITH THE HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL MOYANE'S

[02:55:03]

THAT GENERATOR BUILDING ALMOST DISAPPEARS.

IT'S HARD TO PICK UP IN SOME OF THESE ANGLES, BUT VERY THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED TO THAT BEING INTENTIONALLY TO WHERE YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE A WALL OF SHRUB TO HIDE IT, IT'LL IT'LL DISAPPEAR BY ITSELF BECAUSE IT'S BEEN THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED.

AND THIS IS A VERY CONCEPTUAL RENDERING OF WHAT A TRAIN STATION COULD LOOK LIKE IF IT WAS DESIGNED BY OUR WORLD CLASS ARCHITECTS, BUT IT JUST GOES TO SHOW WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL MEETINGS WITH TRIAL WITH BRIGHT LINE TO ENSURE THAT THEIR NEEDS OF THEIR FACILITY COULD BE MET AND THAT WHAT WE WERE DOING NOW DIDN'T PRECLUDE THE POSSIBILITY OF THEM COMING IN THE FUTURE. AND THEY WERE VERY PLEASED WITH EVERYTHING THAT WE WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE.

AND HERE'S JUST AN ADDITIONAL IMAGE FROM UNDERNEATH ONE OF THOSE PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS LOOKING AT ALL THAT NICE LANDSCAPING ADJACENT TO THE SOUTH ENTRANCE OF BUILDING SIX.

NOW, INTERNALLY, THERE'S SOMETHING VERY UNIQUE TO SOME OF THE NEWER PEDESTRIANS.

OUR NEW OFFICE BUILDINGS, WE DO NOT HAVE ANY INTERIOR SUPPORT COLUMNS WITHIN THIS BUILDING. AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH THE USE OF PRECAST CONCRETE MATERIALS SUCH AS THE CONCRETE DOUBLE T'S.

WE DO HAVE A CENTRAL ACCESS CORRIDOR WITH THE CENTRAL CENTRALIZATION OF THE BATHROOM FACILITIES AND THE ELEVATOR BANK, WHICH REALLY PROVIDES THE MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY FOR TENANTS TO COME IN AND BUILD OUT THEIR SPACE, SOMETHING VERY ATTRACTIVE TO THE HIGHER QUALITY CLASS-A OFFICE USERS THAT WE'RE TRYING TO BRING TO THE CITY.

NOW ON THE GROUND FLOOR SPECIFICALLY, WE ALSO TRIED TO FOCUS ON THE ADAPTIVE REUSE OF THESE BUILDINGS. SO ONE FEATURE IS WE'VE PROVIDED ADDITIONAL ACCESS POINTS.

THEY MAY NOT BE USED RIGHT AWAY, BUT WE'RE PROVIDING THAT POSSIBILITY TO WHERE WHEN A TRAIN STATION COMES OR MARKET CHANGES, WE CAN PROVIDE A DIFFERENT RETAIL USE, POTENTIALLY IF A TRAFFIC STUDY IS PROVIDED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN ADAPTIVELY REUSE THIS BUILDING AND MAKE SURE WE'RE FULLY MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE DEVELOPMENT, AS WELL AS A POTENTIAL STATION THAT IF IT CAME.

LOOKING HERE ARE SOME OF THE 2D ELEVATIONS OF THAT ARCHITECTURE, AGAIN, LOOKING AT THAT CONTEMPORARY DESIGN, AND I'LL BE SHOWING YOU THE NORTHWEST AND EAST ELEVATION SPECIFICALLY SO YOU CAN SEE THE LOCATIONS OF THOSE THREE SIGNS THAT WE'RE REQUESTING ON THIS BUILDING. AGAIN, TWO ARE PERMITTED AND WE'RE REQUESTING FOR ONE ADDITIONAL.

SO THIS IS THE NORTH.

HERE'S THE WEST.

AND THEN THE EAST, SO THE NORTH FACE'S PGA BOULEVARD WEST FACES I-95 AND THE EAST FACES ALTERNATE A A1A. NOW, LANDSCAPING, I MENTIONED EARLIER HOW WE'VE REALLY INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED THE LANDSCAPE TO ARTICULATE THE BUILDING AND PROVIDE SCALE TO THE BUILDING, THIS IS A LARGE OFFICE BUILDING.

IT'S EIGHT STORIES ABOUT A HUNDRED AND FORTY FEET TALL.

AND SO THESE MEDJOOL DATE PALMS THAT I'VE CIRCLED AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE BUILDING ARE ALL THIRTY FIVE FOOT CLEAR TRUNK, WHICH MEANS THERE ARE ABOUT FORTY FIVE FEET TALL OVERALL, SO VERY LARGE MATERIAL, PROVIDING THAT SCALE INSTANTLY TO THE BUILDING AS SOON AS IT'S INSTALLED. ADDITIONALLY, SOME OF THOSE VERTICAL MALIGN ELEMENTS THAT WE DISCUSSED EARLIER HERE, IDENTIFIED ON THE GRAPHIC, WE'VE INTEGRATED LANDSCAPING TO ACCENTUATE THOSE ELEMENTS EVEN FURTHER.

SO THESE ARE MASS TREES PLACED AROUND THE BUILDING IN THOSE LOCATIONS.

AGAIN, PREDOMINANTLY NATIVE FLORIDA FRIENDLY PALETTE, WHICH AIDS IN THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE DEVELOPMENT, AS WELL AS, YOU KNOW, REDUCING THE IRRIGATION NEEDS AND PROVIDING THAT NICE PEDESTRIAN AND WALKABLE ENVIRONMENT, BECAUSE ALL OF THIS LANDSCAPING IS INTEGRATED INTO THOSE PEDESTRIAN SPACES THAT WE'VE SPOTTED ALL OVER THE NEW AREAS OF DEVELOPMENT.

MOVING TO THE PARKING GARAGE, YOU CAN SEE A LOT OF THOSE CONSISTENT ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS IN THE DESIGN, WHICH REFLECT IN THE OFFICE BUILDING, SO REALLY MAKING THAT UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT SO YOU CAN SEE THESE TWO STRUCTURES ARE TIED TOGETHER AND ACTIVATING THAT GROUND FLOOR USE ALONG RCA CENTER DRIVE WITH THAT GROUND FLOOR RETAIL.

AND HERE ON THE EAST AND WEST ELEVATIONS, YOU CAN SEE THE PROPOSED LOCATIONS FOR THOSE TWO PROJECT ID SIGNS THAT WE'VE WANTED TO INTEGRATE INTO THIS BUILDING.

INTERNAL DESIGN, WE WENT OVER THE CIRCULATION OF THEIR GARAGE, HIGHLY EFFICIENT, VERY LOGICAL. IT'S THE MOST EFFICIENT GARAGE DESIGN THAT WE CAME UP WITH THAT WE WORKED DIRECTLY WITH DURING STRESS TO DESIGN.

THEY ARE A PRECAST CONCRETE MANUFACTURER.

WE'VE PROVIDED ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS WITHIN THE GARAGE.

THESE ARE GOING TO BE LEVEL TWO STATIONS, DUAL PORT.

SO 10 TOTAL CHARGING POSITIONS.

[03:00:01]

AND THIS IS A LOCATION OF A COMPACT VEHICLE SPACE, AND THERE'S ABOUT ONE PER FLOOR, SO A TOTAL OF SIX AND THEY'RE COMPACT BECAUSE OF A SUPPORT COLUMN FOR THE GARAGE, WE JUST COULDN'T MOVE IT. AND RATHER THAN LOSING A SPACE, WE HAVE ABOUT 16 FEET FOR THAT VEHICLE.

SO MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR A LOT OF YOUR AVERAGE SIZED VEHICLES TO PARK IN THAT SPACE.

AND AGAIN, ABOUT 7000 SQUARE FEET OF THAT GROUND FLOOR RETAIL, AND WE ARE PROPOSING A MINIMUM TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED SQUARE FEET OF RESTAURANT TO ENSURE THAT THAT YOU USE CATEGORY COMES IMMEDIATELY.

VERY IMPORTANT TO MANY OF THE OFFICE USERS THAT WE SPEAK TO TO PROVIDE THAT LOCATION TO WHERE SOMEBODY COULD GO DOWN AND GET A COFFEE OR GO FOR LUNCH IF THEY DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE. AND AGAIN, MOVING TOWARDS THAT IDEA OF THOSE MIXTURE OF USES TO WHERE THEY DON'T HAVE TO LEAVE THE DEVELOPMENT IF THEY DON'T NEED TO THE RESIDENTIAL OR THE OFFICE AND PROVIDING EVERYTHING CENTRIC TO THE DEVELOPMENT.

AND, OF COURSE, THE SEPTET STANDARDS FOR VISIBILITY AND SIGHTLINES WITHIN THE GARAGE TO MAKE SURE IT'S AN INVITING PLACE, IT'S BRIGHT, IT'S OPEN TO WHERE PEOPLE AREN'T CONCERNED FOR THEIR SAFETY, WHEN THEY'RE UTILIZING THE PARKING STRUCTURE AND THE STRUCTURE IS NOT PROPOSED TO BE PAID A PARK.

IT'S NOT PRECLUDED, BUT WE'RE NOT PROPOSING FOR FOR PAYMENT IN WITHIN THE GARAGE.

AND THEN HERE'S A NICE RENDERING OF THAT GROUND FLOOR VIEW OF THAT FRONT RETAIL ON RCA, RCA CENTER DRIVE AND ALL OF THAT INTEGRATED LANDSCAPING WITHIN THAT PEDESTRIAN SPACE.

WE ARE PROPOSING LANDSCAPE ON THE ROOFTOP OF THE GARAGES, BOTH RESIDENTIAL AND IN POD.

AND WE'VE WORKED AGAIN WITH DARIUS STRESS TO DEVELOP THESE PRECAST CONCRETE PLANTERS, WHICH ARE A LOT MORE SUBSTANTIAL THAN WHAT YOU MIGHT TYPICALLY SEE.

AND WE'VE DONE THAT SO WE CAN PROVIDE SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT MORE SUBSTANTIAL BY WAY OF GREENERY. SO WE ARE PROPOSING CLICHÉ TREES WITHIN THOSE PLANTERS, SOMETHING A BIT MORE SUBSTANTIAL, A BIT MORE COVER RATHER THAN A SINGLE STEM PALM OR EVEN A CHRISTMAS PALM OF SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE.

AND THOSE SAME PLANTERS WOULD ALSO BE INCORPORATED ON THE RESIDENTIAL GARAGE.

SO WE'LL MOVE INTO PART B AGAIN, HEAVY EMPHASIS ON CONNECTIVITY, PEDESTRIAN CIRCULATION, THOSE PATHWAYS ALL THROUGHOUT TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE RESIDENTIAL USERS AND RESIDENTS WOULD BE ABLE TO.

FULLY ACCESS EACH OF THE VARIOUS DRIVEWAYS AND EXTERNALLY TO THE DEVELOPMENT.

NOW WE AGAIN BETWEEN 11 AND 11 A WE ARE UPDATING THIS, THIS WAS AN EXISTING EGRESS ONLY WHICH DIRECTED PEOPLE TO THE RIGHT UP TO PGA BOULEVARD.

AND WE FOUND IT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE WAS INGRESS AND EGRESS FOR EASY ACCESS TO THE RESIDENTIAL GARAGE AND AS WELL TO TAKE STRESS SOME OF THE OTHER INTERNAL PASSAGEWAYS.

WE ARE ALSO PROPOSING TO ENHANCE THE DESIGN CENTER DRIVE INTERSECTION WITH RCA BOULEVARD BY ADDING AN ADDITIONAL LANE TO ALLEVIATE SOME OF THE TRAFFIC THERE.

AGAIN EXISTING, IT'S A SINGLE LANE FOR LEFT TURN THROUGH AND RIGHT TRAFFIC.

SO THIS WILL ALLEVIATE SOME OF THE STACKING WITHIN THAT AREA.

NOW, AGAIN, BUILDING NINE IS AN EXISTING BUILDING, AND IT REPRESENTED SOMEWHAT OF A CHALLENGE FROM THE START, COULDN'T WORK IT TO WHERE WE WERE REMOVING THIS BUILDING.

THERE WAS A SUBSTANTIAL INVESTMENT INTERNALLY RENOVATING THIS BUILDING PRIOR TO THIS PROJECT. AND SO WE'RE MATCHING THOSE UPDATES EXTERNALLY, BUT WE PROVIDED THOSE RIDESHARE SPACES ADJACENT HERE AGAIN, EASY ACCESS TO THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING AS WELL AS THIS OFFICE BUILDING. BUT THIS SPACE BETWEEN WE WORK CLOSELY WITH THE RICHMOND GROUP TO DEVELOP WHAT WE CALL A PEDESTRIAN GARDEN COURTYARD WITH LOTS OF AMENITIES AND WORKING WITH CITY STAFF AND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.

WE ARE PROPOSING SECURED ACCESS FROM DUSK TO DAWN, BUT WE DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE IT TOO IMPOSING OF A GATE.

SO WE'RE PROPOSING A FIVE FOOT GATE AND FENCE, BUT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE STILL MAINTAINING GOOD SECURITY AT NIGHTTIME.

WE ARE PROPOSING HOSTILE LANDSCAPING ON BOTH SIDES OF THAT FENCE TO SECURE THAT AT NIGHT.

WE ARE PROPOSING PUBLIC ART WITHIN THIS SPACE.

WE'RE NOT REQUESTING CREDIT FOR THIS PUBLIC ART.

IT'S JUST A REALLY NICE SPACE TO BE ABLE TO PLACE THAT IN AND AROUND THE LANDSCAPING TO FURTHER ENHANCE THAT FOR BOTH THE OFFICE AS WELL AS THE RESIDENTIAL TENANTS.

AND, OF COURSE, BIKE RACK BENCHES AND PEDESTRIAN LIGHTING.

AND YOU'RE LOOKING AT A NICE RENDERING VIEW OF WHAT THAT SPACE WOULD ULTIMATELY LOOK LIKE WITH LANDSCAPING AGAIN, AS ACCURATE AS WE CAN MAKE IT WITH TODAY'S TECHNOLOGY SHOWING THE LOCATIONS OF THOSE ART PIECES, AS WELL AS THE ULTIMATE FEEL OF WHAT THAT LANDSCAPING

[03:05:01]

SAME POINTS WITHIN THE NEW LAYOUT.

BUT WE'RE ALSO PROVIDING FOR ADDITIONAL ACCESS POINTS WHERE WE COULD HAVE THOSE THAT ACTIVITY, THE GROUND FLOOR UNITS DIRECTLY ABUTTING THE STREETS, ACTIVATING THE SPACE AND PROVIDING THAT POTENTIAL NOW.

SO HERE'S A NICE COMPARISON OF THE TWO DIFFERENT ARCHITECTURAL STYLES.

THE TOP BEING EXISTING CONDITIONS, THE BOTTOM BEING WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING MUCH MORE MODERN FITTING IN WITH THE NEW RESIDENTIAL BUILDING, AS WELL AS THE OFFICE BUILDING AND TRYING TO PHASE OUT SOME OF THOSE MEDITERRANEAN STYLE LINKS THAT HAVE BEEN A PART OF PGA STATION FOR SO LONG. SO HERE'S THAT EXISTING STREET VIEW.

AND THEN WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING IT TO LOOK LIKE MUCH MORE CONSISTENT WITH THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING AND ANOTHER ELEMENT TO TOUCH ON THIS OFFICE BUILDING IS TWO STORIES.

BUT IN COMPARISON TO THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING BEHIND IT, IT'S ROUGHLY FOUR STORIES OF THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING.

JUST THE DIFFERENT DESIGN, INTERNAL REQUIREMENTS AND GENERAL STANDARDS FOR OFFICE SPACES TO THE FLOOR TO FLOOR HEIGHT IS A BIT TALLER THAN THE RESIDENTIAL UNITS.

SO THAT BRINGS US TO THE CROWN JEWEL, THE MAIN RESIDENTIAL BUILDING AGAIN, THREE HUNDRED NINETY SIX UNITS.

THEY ARE A MIXTURE OF STUDIO, ONE BEDROOM, TWO BEDROOM AND THREE BEDROOM UNITS.

WE HAVE AN ATTACHED SIX HUNDRED AND SIX PARKING SPACE GARAGE.

AND IF YOU DO THE MATH, IT'S ZERO POINT NINE FIVE SPACES PER BED, PLUS TWO AND A HALF PERCENT GUEST.

AND SO WE DID A LOT OF RESEARCH WITH OUR TRAFFIC CONSULTANT, AS WELL AS THE RICHMOND GROUP TO DEVELOP THIS PARKING RATE AGAIN.

WE LOOKED AT THE TOTAL PARKING AT BUILDOUT FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT AND WE ARE FAR EXCEEDING OUR CODE WITHOUT SHARED PARKING.

BUT WE WANTED TO BRING IN THIS PARKING RATE AT SOMETHING THAT FUNCTIONS.

IT WORKS VERY WELL FOR RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS OF THIS TYPE IN THIS ENVIRONMENT, AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT THE RICHMOND GROUP IS USED IN OTHER DEVELOPMENTS THAT THEY'VE CREATED TO GREAT SUCCESS. AND THEN AGAIN, WANTED TO TOUCH ON THE 10 PERCENT WORKFORCE HOUSING THAT IS BEING COMMITTED TO THAT WOULD BE ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY PERCENT AREA MEDIAN INCOME FOR A PERIOD OF 20 YEARS.

NOW, INTERNALLY, LOOKING AT THE WAY THAT WE DESIGN THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING AGAIN WITH THE INTEGRATION INTO A DEVELOPED SITE TO WHERE WE'RE WORKING AROUND EXISTING BUILDINGS AND EXISTING PATTERNS IS SOMETHING THAT IS SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON AND WE WANTED TO CREATE THAT STREET ACTIVATION, THAT CONCEPT OF EYES ON THE STREET TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE PROVIDING A SAFE ENVIRONMENT AS POSSIBLE.

SO WE DO HAVE THOSE GROUND FLOOR UNITS FRONTING DIRECTLY ON THE STREET.

WE HAVE CONSOLIDATED OUR SUPPORT FACILITIES AROUND THE GARAGE AGAIN, MAXIMIZING EFFICIENCY AS WELL AS SAFETY.

THE RICHMOND GROUP DOES AN AMAZING JOB WITH THEIR AMENITIES, BOTH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL.

THEY HAVE DESIGNED THEIR SECURED PEDESTRIAN OR SECURED RESIDENTIAL AMENITIES CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER, AND WE HAVE INCORPORATED PUBLIC AMENITY AREAS OUTSIDE THE BUILDING AND ALSO TO THE BENEFIT OF THOSE RESIDENTIAL UNITS.

SO THE LOCATION OF THOSE COURTYARDS INTERNAL TO THE BUILDING IS SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT, AND THE RICHMOND GROUP AND THEIR ARCHITECT DO A NUMBER OF SHADOW STUDIES TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR LOCATIONS ARE THE BEST AS POSSIBLE TO MAKE SURE MAXIMUM TO MAXIMIZE SUN EXPOSURE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAIL, AGAIN, HIGHLIGHTING THOSE GROUND FLOOR UNITS, THE CONSOLIDATION OF THOSE AMENITIES, BOTH EXTERNAL TO THE BUILDING AS WELL AS INTERNAL SPACES.

AND THEN JUST THE THE LONG LIST OF AMENITIES PROVIDED BY THE RICHMOND GROUP, WE TALK ABOUT THERE. THEIR GOAL TO MANAGE THE PROPERTY, THEY DO A GREAT JOB TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE PROVIDING AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE FOR THEIR RESIDENTS.

THE INTERNAL ACCESS, THE MAIN ACCESS TO THE FRONT DOOR, LOTS OF GLASS VIEWS TO THE INTERIOR POOL AREA, LOTS OF NATURAL LIGHT.

ALL THE AMENITY AREAS CONSOLIDATED TOGETHER.

AND THEN SOMETHING ELSE THE RICHMOND GROUP DOES IS UTILIZING SOME OF THESE SPACES THAT MAY BE UNDERVALUED.

THIS HALLWAY CONNECTION AS AN OUTSIDE HALLWAY CONNECTING THE INTERIOR COURTYARD TO THE EXTERIOR, WHICH THE RICHMOND GROUP BRINGS IN NICE FURNITURE, A MONETIZING THAT AREA WHICH CAN DO A SPACE THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GO UNUSED.

AND THEN FINALLY, THOSE CONSOLIDATION OF OUR SUPPORT FACILITIES, THE TRASH ROOM ARE LOADING AREA FOR RESIDENTIAL MOVE IN AND MOVE OUT.

ALL DONE BY APPOINTMENT AND THEN ENTER YOUR BICYCLE STORAGE.

NOW IN YOUR UPPER RIGHT, YOU SEE OUR TRASH ROOM FACILITY WHERE THERE COMPACTORS ARE.

[03:10:02]

AND THESE FACILITIES WOULD BE SECURED WHEN NOT IN USE.

THE INTERIOR PARKING STRUCTURE, AGAIN, PROVIDING ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS, AND WE ARE FULLY WIRING IT FOR 17 STATIONS, LEVEL TWO CHARGERS BOTH HANDICAP AND STANDARD PARKING SPACES.

WE DO HAVE INTERIOR BICYCLE STORAGE SECURED WITH THE VERTICAL BIKE RACKS, AGAIN MAXIMIZING BICYCLE STORAGE.

THERE IS A DOCK WASHROOM WITHIN THE GARAGE.

ANOTHER AMENITY FOR RESIDENTS.

AND THEN WE ARE PROPOSING THE COMPACT SPACES AS ANOTHER PARKING OPTION WITHIN THE RESIDENTIAL GARAGE.

SO EIGHT AND A HALF FOOT WIDE, BUT ALSO PROVIDING PARKING AT NINE AND A HALF FOOT WIDE.

SO A VARIETY OF PARKING OPTIONS.

AND HERE, LOOKING AT SOME OF THE ELEVATIONS OF THAT RESIDENTIAL BUILDING, SOME VERY NICE CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE WITH SOME TRADITIONAL FLAIR AS WELL, WITH VARYING COLORS AND MATERIALS USED TO BREAK UP THE BUILDING, IT IS A LARGE BUILDING.

HERE'S SOME NICE RENDERINGS OF THE EXTERIOR.

THIS IS THE NORTHWEST CORNER AGAIN, THAT MAIN ENTRANCE.

HERE'S THE WEST SIDE OF THE BUILDING.

AND THEN I REALLY LIKE THIS RENDERING VIEW, BECAUSE THIS IS THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE BUILDING, BUT IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE TWO DIFFERENT BUILDINGS WITH THE ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS AND ARTICULATION THAT THE ARCHITECT IS INTEGRATED.

AND THEN WE TALKED ABOUT THE ACTIVATION OF THE STREET, THE EYES ON THE STREET PRINCIPLE AND DESIGNING THOSE UNITS THAT ARE ON THE GROUND FLOOR AND MAKING SURE THAT THERE'S AN APPROPRIATE SEPARATION OF THAT PRIVATE SEMI-PRIVATE PUBLIC REALM.

AND THEN BRIEFLY WANTED TO TOUCH ON THE LOCATIONS OF THOSE TWO RESIDENTIAL ID SIGNS THAT WE ARE PROPOSING ON THE NORTH CORNER AS WELL AS ON THE EASTERN SIDE AND THEY ARE HAVE BEEN DESIGNED AND WE DO HAVE A SIGNAGE PACKAGE INCLUDED THAT WE HAVE SUBMITTED.

AND THAT BRINGS US TO THE END.

TRY TO BE AS CONCISE AND THOROUGH AS POSSIBLE, BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE LET US KNOW. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. THAT'S A BIG PROJECT, THE STAFF HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD TO THAT.

UNFORTUNATELY, I DO, BUT I'LL FOREGO THE SKATE SLIDE PRESENTATION THAT I HAVE AND INSTEAD REED UNLESS YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE IT.

BUT I DO HAVE IT A.

AND WE DO HAVE AN ABBREVIATED PRESENTATION, BUT BEFORE WE GET TO THAT, FOR THE RECORD.

MARTIN FITZ, PRINCIPAL PLANNER AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.

I APOLOGIZE. I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A MOMENT TO RECOGNIZE THE FACT THAT WE HAVE STAFF HAS BEEN WORKING WITH THE APPLICANT ON THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT FOR WELL OVER TWO YEARS, AND THE PROJECT HAS GONE THROUGH QUITE A FEW CHANGES DURING THAT TIME.

AND THE APPLICANT HAS WORKED VERY DILIGENTLY WITH STAFF TO ADDRESS THE COMMENTS AND THE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT WE'VE MADE SO THAT WE CAN GET TO THE POINT WHERE WE HAVE THIS PLAN THAT WAS PRESENTED TO YOU TONIGHT AND STAFF IS VERY HAPPY WITH WITH WHERE WE ARE.

THE PROJECT HAS, DOES, GOES A LONG WAY TO ACTIVATE THE TODD.

AND ENHANCE THE TODD DISTRICT THAT WAS, AS YOU KNOW, RECENTLY INCORPORATED INTO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

THE APPLICANT HAS HAS WORKED VERY HARD WITH STAFF TO PROVIDE THE RESIDENTIAL ELEMENT AND THE VOLUNTARY DEDICATION OF THE WORKFORCE HOUSING TO REALLY INCORPORATE THOSE TODD CONCEPTS AND TO MAKE A A WORKABLE MIXED USE PROJECT WITHIN THE THE CENTER OF THE CITY.

AND ALSO, I'D LIKE TO TAKE A MOMENT TO THANK MY COWORKERS JOANN ZAKARIYA AND DAWN SANBORN. THE THREE OF US HAVE BEEN WORKING VERY CLOSELY ON THIS PROJECT FOR THE PAST YEAR AND YEAR AND A HALF, AND THERE'S NO WAY I COULD HAVE DONE HALF THE STUFF ON THIS WITHOUT THEIR HELP. SO AS I MENTIONED, WE ARE THE APPLICANT DID A VERY THOROUGH PRESENTATION OF MANY OF THE KEY HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PROJECT, AND I DO WANT TO HIT A FEW KEY POINTS, HOWEVER. BUT YOU CAN SEE SKIPPING QUITE A FEW OF THESE HERE, THE THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING SIX WAIVERS FOR THIS PROJECT.

THREE OF THOSE ARE DEALING WITH SIGNAGE AND THEN THREE WITH OTHER DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA.

STAFF IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF FIVE OF THOSE WAIVERS AND WE ARE RECOMMENDING DENIAL FOR WAIVER THREE FOR THE SCIENCE ON THE ACCESSORY STRUCTURE OF THE PARKING GARAGE.

[03:15:06]

AND WE WHEN WE WERE REVIEWING THE STAFF HAS BEEN IN GENERAL HAS BEEN VERY CONSISTENT IN OUR APPLICATION OF THE SIGN CODE REFERENCING WITH REFERENCE TO PARKING GARAGES.

THIS DURING OUR AS A RESULT OF THIS, THERE ARE NO PARKING GARAGES WITHIN THE CITY WITH A DEVELOPER SIGN ON ON THE FACADE.

AND IN FACT, IN OUR RESEARCH, WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT OTHER MUNICIPALITIES, WE FOUND THAT THIS TYPE OF SIGNAGE ON PARKING GARAGES IS BY FAR THE EXCEPTION, NOT THE RULE.

AND IF THIS SIGN IS APPROVED, IT WOULD BE THE FIRST DEVELOPER SIGN ON PARKING GARAGE AND IN FACT, THE THE PARKING GARAGE IN PGA STATION AND BUILDING 12, WHICH FACES THE RCA OR PGA, REQUESTED A SIGN IN 2008, AND COUNCIL DENIED THAT SIGN AT THAT TIME.

I WILL ALSO POINT OUT THAT STAFF IS NOT OPPOSING THE SIGNAGE FOR THE GROUND FLOOR TENANTS, WHICH WOULD BE ON THOSE ACTIVE GROUND FLOORS AND ACTIVE GROUND FLOOR TENANTS ON THE EAST AND NORTH, OR ANY OF THE DIRECTIONAL OR INSTRUCTIONAL SIGNAGE SUCH AS ENTRANCE, EXIT AND.

THE OTHER SIGNAGE ASSOCIATED WITH THE GARAGE.

AND AS WE POINTED OUT, THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE TODD CONCEPTS IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH THE LDR REGULATIONS.

THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN DULY NOTICED AND BOTH FOR PEACE AND FOR COUNCIL.

THIS DID GO TO THE PLANNING, ZONING AND APPEALS BOARD AT THE OCTOBER HEARING, WHERE IT DID RECEIVE A RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL AND A RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL FOR WAIVERS ONE, TWO, FOUR, FIVE AND SIX AND RECOMMENDATION OF DENIAL FOR WAIVER THREE BY A VOTE OF SIX TO ONE. THE PLANNING, ZONING AND APPEALS BOARD DID RECOMMEND ADDING A CONDITION OF APPROVAL THAT THE FIRST FLOOR OF THE PARKING GARAGE SHOULD NOT BE GATED OR HAVE ACCESS CONTROL AT ANY TIME, AND THAT CONDITION HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RESOLUTION.

AND STEPH DOES CONTINUE TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION SIXTY TWO, TWENTY TWENTY ONE, AS PRESENTED WITH THE RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL FOR WAIVERS ONE TO FOUR OR FIVE AND SIX AND RECOMMENDATION OF DENIAL FOR WAIVER THREE AND STAFF IS AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. ALL RIGHT.

OK, WELL, THANK YOU, BOTH.

THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THIS IS A MAJOR ADDITION TO PALM BEACH GARDENS AND SIGNALS THE REDEVELOPMENT AND NEW DEVELOPMENT WITHIN RTV, AND I WANT TO TAKE THIS TIME TO THANK MR. PROFUMO FOR THE WORKFORCE HOUSING UNITS AND THE 20 YEAR DEED RESTRICTION ON THOSE THAT IS IMPORTANT TO THE TODD.

IT'S IMPORTANT TO THE CITY.

IT DEFINITELY MAKES A STATEMENT THAT HOPEFULLY OTHERS WILL BE ANXIOUS TO FOLLOW.

SO THANK YOU FOR THAT.

WHO HAS QUESTIONS? CARL YOU WANT TO START WITH QUESTIONS? I DO HAVE A QUESTION KIND OF UNRELATED, BUT THE PARKING GARAGE THAT'S ALREADY IN EXISTENCE WITH 428 SPACES BY BUILDING NUMBER 12.

HOW MANY PEOPLE ACTUALLY PARK THERE NOW? NUMBER ONE IS IT UTILIZED MUCH OR NOT MUCH? DAN CARL OF, YOU KNOW, 60 PERCENT, OK, AND THERE WILL BE A PEDESTRIAN WALKWAY BECAUSE ASSUMING THE RAIL STATION IS BUILT AND THESE ARE THE TWO BUILDINGS ARE, WELL, OFFICE BUILDING NUMBER SIX IS BUILT, THE PARKING GARAGE ADJACENT AND POD C 6A IS GOING TO PRIMARILY PROVIDE PARKING FOR THE OFFICE BUILDING, AT LEAST IN TODAY'S WORLD OF CAR TRAFFIC. BUT IF IT DOES FILL UP BECAUSE THE TRAIN STATION IS THERE, THERE'S A PEDESTRIAN PATHWAY FROM THE EXISTING PARKING GARAGE SO THAT THERE WOULD BE OVERFLOW PARKING.

BECAUSE I KNOW THAT YOU SAID THAT THERE'S A POTENTIAL TO BUILD ADDITIONAL PARKING ON THAT PARKING STRUCTURE IN THE FUTURE SHOULD THERE BE A NEED BUT.

PERHAPS IT MAY NOT BE NEEDED IF THE OTHER, OK? THANK YOU. I'M GOING TO ASK YOU A QUESTION JUST RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE IT JUST BACKS UP ON MARK'S QUESTION ABOUT THE PARKING GARAGES 6A IS THE GARAGE WHERE WE'RE NOT HAVING WHERE

[03:20:06]

OK. WHAT ABOUT RESIDENTS OF RESIDENTS? BUSINESSES IN THE OTHER BUILDINGS, THE OFFICE BUILDINGS THAT EXIST NOW.

I ACTUALLY SPOKE WITH SOMEONE WHO OWNS ONE OF THOSE BUILDINGS, AND THE COMPLAINT WAS THERE'S NOT ENOUGH PARKING.

THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT THERE WERE GOING TO BE PARKING GARAGES.

THEY HEARD THIS PROJECT WAS COMING IN AND THEY WERE CONCERNED.

THEY SAID THERE ALREADY ISN'T ENOUGH PARKING.

HOW ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S ENOUGH AND WAS VERY HAPPY TO HEAR THERE WOULD BE TWO? WELL, THEY HAVE ACCESS TO THIS GARAGE.

IF THEY ARE IN THE PROJECT.

SOMEWHERE THERE IS THERE IS FULL SHARED PARKING THROUGHOUT THE DEVELOPMENT, SO THE ADJACENT BUILDINGS WOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO PARK IN THE GARAGES, SO ALL THE ALL THE PARKING SPACES WITHIN THE DEVELOPMENT WOULD BE AVAILABLE.

THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW. OK, EXCEPT THE RESIDENTIAL RATE, THE RESIDENTIAL SERVICE PRESENT, SO THEY HAVE A SECURED ACCESS TO THEIR GARAGE THAT THEY WOULD HAVE.

OK, THANK YOU.

I'LL COME BACK TO MINE LATER.

ALL RIGHT. AND THEN JUST BRIEFLY, I WANTED TO.

I FAILED TO MENTION HERE IN THE PRESENTATION, I DID MENTION THAT WE COULD EXPAND THE GARAGE, BUT HERE IT'S A REALLY GOOD ANGLE OF THAT ROOFTOP AND YOU CAN SEE IT.

THE STEP DESIGN, HOW THE WESTERN SIDE IS LOWER THAN THE EASTERN, AND WE WOULD BE ABLE TO EXTEND THAT TOP FLOOR AROUND THE FRONT THERE TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL PARKING.

IN THE EVENT THAT THE STATION WERE TO BE BUILT IN, THE PARKING SPACES WERE NEEDED.

SO WE'VE DESIGNED IT TO TO BE ABLE TO INCORPORATE THAT ADDITIONAL PARKING.

THAT WAS ANOTHER QUESTION.

GREAT. THANK YOU. MARK, YOU CAN FINISH.

YEAH, I'M DONE WITH THE QUESTIONS REGARDING A PROJECT.

MARCY MARCY, YOU WANT TO GO.

DID CARL, THOUGH? MM HMM.

OH, WOW, OKAY.

OH, YOU DIDN'T GO OH, CARL SAID.

YOU CAN GO ANY TIME SO YOU CAN GO AFTER MARCIE THEN.

OK, YOU'LL GO AFTERWARDS.

OH, GEEZ, LOUISE, I'M GETTING A REPUTATION.

I KNOW, RIGHT? WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I'LL START BY SAYING THAT THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A VERY EXTENSIVE PROJECT FROM A TODD PERSPECTIVE FROM FUTURE TRANSIT OPPORTUNITIES.

AND ALSO, IMPORTANTLY, A WORKFORCE HOUSING.

I DO WANT TO THANK YOU FOR VOLUNTEERING TO PROVIDE WORKFORCE HOUSING.

THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS WE'VE ALL TALKED ABOUT AND THIS IS, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY A PERFECT SPOT FOR IT.

SO WE REALLY APPRECIATE THAT AND I COMMEND YOU ALL STAFF AND THE APPLICANT FOR REALLY THINKING THROUGH THIS PROJECT AND PAYING CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE DETAIL AND WORKING TOGETHER TO CREATE A REALLY THOUGHTFUL DESIGN.

SO I REALLY, REALLY APPRECIATE THAT.

WITH THAT SAID, ACTUALLY, OUR MAYOR SPOKE TO THE SAME PERSON THAT I SPOKE TO, SO I WAS GOING TO ASK THE SAME QUESTION HOW WHICH YOU ALREADY ADDRESSED IN REGARDS TO THE PARKING, BUT HOW ARE YOU GOING TO, I GUESS, LOGISTICALLY WISE, TAKE CARE OF THE EXISTING TENANTS DURING THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THAT'S YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, IT'S A VERY LARGE PROJECT.

YOU HAVE EXISTING CLIENTS AND TENANTS.

AND CAN YOU PLEASE KIND OF WALK ME THROUGH HOW YOU'RE GOING TO DO THAT? AGAIN, DAN CATL, GEORGE, IF YOU CAN PULL UP THAT STAGING PLAN, WE PURPOSELY LEFT POD C VACANT WHILE THE RICHMOND GROUP THAT WE PARTNERED WITH IS BUILDING THEIR BUILDING.

WE'RE ALSO KEEPING OUR BUILDING NUMBER NINE VACANT EXCEPT FOR OUR OFFICES.

SO WE BASICALLY WHEN WE REPURCHASED THE PROPERTY ALMOST THREE YEARS AGO, THE BUILDING HAS BEEN VACANT. IT'LL BE VACANT AGAIN FOR TWO MORE YEARS.

SO THAT'S 20000 SQUARE FEET.

THAT DOESN'T NEED PARKING BECAUSE WE CAN'T HAVE CONSTRUCTION AND PEDESTRIANS WALKING AROUND. BUT THE STAGING AREA ON POD C IS WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO PUT ALL THEIR HEAVY MATERIAL, ALL THEIR WORKFORCE.

ALL THE WORKERS CAN WORK THERE.

AND THEN ONCE THE STAGING AREA IS DONE, THEY'RE PRETTY MUCH INSIDE THEIR BUILDING.

AND THEN WE HAVE OUR VACANT LOT AND THEN WE'LL START OUR CONSTRUCTION.

THANK YOU. AND THEN SO FOR ACCESS, BECAUSE DURING CONSTRUCTION, OBVIOUSLY ACCESS WILL BE, YOU KNOW, MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME, YOU KNOW, TEMPORARILY.

IS THAT GOING TO BE COMMUNICATED WITH THE EXISTING TENANTS PRIOR TO ANY CHANGE OF ACCESS FOR THEM? WE ARE ACTUALLY DOING THAT NOW.

WE ACTUALLY SENT OUT NOTICES BETWEEN RIGHT NOW, BETWEEN BUILDING 11 AND 11 A..

WE HAVE NOW MADE THAT TWO LANES.

WE PURPOSELY DID MOST OF THIS CONSTRUCTION BEFORE THE RICHMOND GROUP WOULD START THEIRS BY DOING THE LAKE FIRST, BY DOING THE INFRASTRUCTURE AND BY DOING ALL THE ROADWORK WILL

[03:25:01]

SO ANY TIME THAT ANY TIME A ROAD OR ROAD WOULD BE CLOSED FOR ANY TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION NOTICES WOULD BE GO OUT.

THANK YOU. AND THEN OBVIOUSLY, TRAFFIC IS A BIG ISSUE TO EVERYBODY.

THEY SEE CONSTRUCTION AND THEY SAY THEY JUST ASSUME BIG BUILDINGS GOING TO BE A LOT OF TRAFFIC. WE OBVIOUSLY UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A TOD AREA AND WE APPRECIATE THE THE CROSS EVERYTHING. BUT I GUESS YOU'RE UTILIZING EXISTING UNBUILT SQUARE FOOTAGE HERE.

SO FROM A TRAFFIC, OBVIOUSLY UTILIZING THE TRAFFIC EQUIVALENCY PROCESS AND STANDPOINT, WHAT WOULD BE THE NET GAIN OR LOSS FROM A TRAFFIC STANDPOINT AS FAR AS TRIPS? WELL, ONE OF THE THINGS WAS EASY TO DO JUST A SIMPLE, AND HE COULD DO THAT.

BUT THE 80000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING THAT WE TORE DOWN IS REALLY JUST GOING OVER TO POD C THAT HAD SIXTY FOUR THOUSAND SQUARE FEET.

SO THAT KIND OF WASHED ITSELF OUT.

SO IT'S REALLY JUST A RESIDENTIAL CAPTURE.

AND THE BEAUTY PART NOW BY ADDING FOOD SERVICES, WHICH WE DIDN'T HAVE BEFORE.

FOR AN EXAMPLE, WHEN WE HAVE CLIENTS OVER FOR LUNCH, WE HAVE TO ORDER OR GO OUT TO LUNCH.

IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT TO BE ABLE TO WALK NEXT DOOR OR HAVE FOOD BROUGHT TO ANY OF THE PLACES, ESPECIALLY NOW THAT WE BROUGHT TO THIS THIRD BUILDING.

WE RELOCATED THEM FROM JUNEAU WITH JOEY EICHNER.

HELP WE MOVE 60000 SQUARE FEET FROM JUNEAU.

NOT TO SAY THAT WE TOOK THEM FROM JUNEAU, BUT THEY ARE NOW.

YOU WON'T TELL ANYBODY THAT'S OK.

WE LIKE THEM HERE BETTER.

THEY'RE ALL HERE NOW. AND THEIR FIRST THING IS, WHEN ARE WE GETTING THE FOOD SERVICE? PART OF THE COMPLEX? YEAH, IMPORTANT.

WE GET TO.

YEAH. OK.

GOOD EVENING. FOR THE RECORD, STEPHANIE QUINLAN WITH KIMBERLY HORNE, THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER FOR THE PROJECT AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.

THE THE PROJECT IN TERMS OF NET GAIN AND TRAFFIC IN REGARDS TO THE EXISTING APPROVALS FOR THE SITE, WE'RE LOOKING AT AN INCREASE OF ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY A.M.

PEAK HOUR TRIPS IN TWO HUNDRED AND TWO P.M.

PEAK HOUR TRIPS.

HOWEVER, WE DID CONDUCT A FULL TRAFFIC STUDY LOOKING AT THE SURROUNDING INTERSECTIONS, AND THAT WAS WHAT ALLOWED US TO COME TO THE AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY TO MAKE THOSE IMPROVEMENTS, SUCH AS IMPROVING THE ACCESS AT THE DRIVEWAY THAT DIRECTLY ACCESSES RCA BOULEVARD, WIDENING THE EGRESS LANES TO ALLOW FOR SEPARATE LEFT AND RIGHT TURN LANES AT DESIGN CENTER DRIVE AND THEN A NUMBER OF PROPORTIONATE SHARE PAYMENTS FOR IMPROVEMENTS SUCH AS FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS SUCH AS FUTURE ROUNDABOUT AT NORTH SHORE PARKWAY AND RCA BOULEVARD IN A FUTURE SOUTHBOUND RIGHT TURN LANE AT RCA BOULEVARD AND ALTERNATE A1A TO AND TO FACILITATE THAT. AND DOES THAT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE FPL SITE BECAUSE ITS EXISTING DEVELOPMENT? YES, THAT WAS CONSIDERED A COMMITTED TRIP THAT WE CONSIDERED IN OUR FUTURE ANALYSIS. OK? AND IN THE PRESENTATION, YOU MENTIONED THE GENERATOR ROOM, AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU ALLUDED TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS.

I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE BUILT.

BUT THEN YOU HAD SAID ROOM FOR GENERATOR BUILDING.

IS THE GENERATOR GOING TO BE THERE OR NOT? NOW THE GENERATOR BUILDING NORTH OF BUILDING SIX, CORRECT.

IT WILL BE BUILT AT THE SAME TIME.

AND THAT IS IS THAT GENERATOR BUILDING USED FOR THE LIFE SAFETY ELEMENTS OF BOTH THE RESIDENTIAL AND THE OFFICE BUILDING? NO, IT'S STRICTLY FOR THE OFFICE BUILDING AND THE GARAGE, SO IT FULLY SUPPORTS THE BUILDING. SIX AND SIX A THE PARKING STRUCTURE.

THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDING HAS ITS OWN INTERNAL GENERATOR SYSTEM.

IT'S INTERNAL TO THE BUILDING WITHIN THE PARKING STRUCTURE.

ONE THING I WANT TO ADD IS FOR OUR GENERATOR BUILDING.

FOR BUILDING SIX, IT IS BY DIESEL, WHICH IT STARTS WITH DIESEL AND RUNS WITH NATURAL GAS.

IT'S IT WILL POWER THE ENTIRE BUILDING AND ALSO POWER THE ENTIRE GARAGE.

SO IT'S NOT. IT'S LIFE SAFETY.

IT ALSO DOES THE ENTIRE FACILITY.

OH, VERY GOOD.

THAT'S AWESOME. AND I THINK YOU MENTIONED AND I WANTED TO CLARIFY THE PARKING STRUCTURE ADJACENT TO THE RAIL IS NOT GOING TO BE ACCESSED, CONTROLLED NOW OR IN THE FUTURE.

CORRECT. SO YEAH, SO THE CONDITION IS FOR THE GROUND FLOOR TO BE ACCESS CONTROL FOREVER.

AND THEN WE ARE NOT PROPOSING TO HAVE ACCESS CONTROL IN THE GARAGE NOW OR IN THE FUTURE WITH A TRIAL STATION, IT'S NOT PRECLUDED, BUT IT'S NOT PART OF THE DESIGN CURRENTLY.

OK. AND YOU HAD MENTIONED THE PLANTERS, WHICH IS VERY EXCITING, I LIKE THEM VERY MUCH AND VERY THOUGHTFUL PLANT PALLET, I APPRECIATE THAT.

ARE THE DRAINAGE DOWNSPOUTS FOR THE IRRIGATION ON THE GARAGE BUILDINGS? ARE THEY EXTERIOR INTERIOR AND ARE THEY HIDDEN INTERIOR INTERIOR? PERFECT. AND THEN THE 17 CHARGING STATIONS FOR SIX HUNDRED CARS? IS THAT WHAT YOU SAID? RIGHT.

[03:30:02]

AND IS THERE ROOM FOR ADDITIONAL SHOULD THERE BE THE NEED? BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE IS USING ALL THESE CHARGING STATIONS.

I KNOW EVEN IN MY OFFICE BUILDING, THEY'RE ALL USED UP EVERY DAY AND EVERYONE KEEPS FIGHTING FOR THEM. THERE IS A POTENTIAL WITH THE HIGHER LEVEL CHARGING STATIONS THEY DO REQUIRE, YOU KNOW, ADDITIONAL, YOU KNOW, ELECTRIC CAPACITY THAT HAS TO BE PRE ENGINEERED.

BUT WITH, YOU KNOW, THE CURRENT FACILITIES AND OPERATING PROCEDURES FOR THE RICHMOND GROUP, THEY FOUND THAT, YOU KNOW, THIS WAS GOING TO BE AN APPROPRIATE NUMBER WITH THE LOWER LEVEL CHARGING STATIONS.

I BELIEVE THEY COULD ADD SOME MORE IN THE FUTURE.

BUT CURRENTLY, WITH THEIR RESEARCH, THEY FOUND THAT THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH FOR THIS FACILITY. OK, I WANT TO CONTINUE MORSY'S DISCUSSION THERE BECAUSE I GOT A BIG ONE ON ON BOTH PARKING GARAGES RIGHT NOW, THEIR LEVEL TWO.

A LOT OF PLACES ARE FINDING LEVEL TWO'S NOT GOING TO CUT IT VERY SOON.

LEVEL THREE FOR MOST OF THE NEW ELECTRIC CARS COMING OUT IS GOING TO BE STANDARD.

SINCE WE'RE STARTING ON THE GROUND FLOOR, CAN'T THEY BE WIRED, CAN'T WE UPGRADE TO LEVEL THREE? WE JUST ASKED THAT OF OUR LAST APPLICANT AND THEY WERE ABLE TO TO AGREE TO MOVE TO LEVEL THREE. I CAN'T ANSWER THAT FOR THE OFFICE BUILDING.

LEVEL THREE REQUIRES 480 VOLTS.

LEVEL TWO REQUIRES 240.

WE DO NOT HAVE 480 80.

AND MOST PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT THEY CAN DO THE LEVEL THREE NEED TO ASK THEIR POWER COMPANY IF THEY HAVE 480 VOLTS, WHICH THEY DON'T.

SO IT'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM.

WE'RE GOING THROUGH THIS IN ONE OF OUR CONDOMINIUM PROJECT WHERE WE OVERSIZE THE CONDUIT TO DO THE 240 VOLTS, WHICH GIVES THEM A FOUR HOUR CHARGE.

AND I CAN I'LL COME ON ON THAT AS WELL.

THE LEVEL TWO CHARGERS ACTUALLY ARE VERY, VERY EFFICIENT.

SO WHICH IS WHAT YOU HAVE, I BELIEVE, OUT IN THE PARKING LOT.

SO I DRIVE A TESLA, I HAVE A LEVEL TWO CHARGER AT THE OFFICE.

I HAVE NO CHARGER AT HOME AND HAVEN'T PULLED IT OUT FOR I'VE GOT IT'S IN THE TRUNK.

IT CAME WITH A CAR AND I DON'T EVEN USE IT, SO I'M ABLE TO CHARGE MY CAR AT THE OFFICE.

SO ANY OF THE OFFICE USERS THAT ARE THERE FOR ANY PERIOD OF EXTENDED DAY THEY GO HOME WITH THEIR CAR IS FULLY CHARGED.

YOU KNOW, CERTAINLY AT YOUR EXPENSE MARCIE.

I'M SURE THAT THEY COULD GO HOME.

SO THE BATTERY CHARGING TECHNOLOGY, IF YOU'VE BEEN READING, IT'S CHANGING.

THE NEW TECHNOLOGY IS ANTICIPATED TO CHARGE THE BATTERIES QUICKER.

SO I THINK WHAT YOU'LL SEE WITH WITH GM'S NEW PLANT, WITH FORD'S NEW PLANT.

TOYOTA ANNOUNCED BUILDING A NEW BATTERY PLANT THAT THE TECHNOLOGY FOR CHARGING IS GOING TO BE A LOT FASTER THAN WHAT IT IS.

BUT AT DOWNTOWN, AT THE GARDENS, WE IN COOPERATION WITH THE ELECTRIFY AMERICA.

WE DID PUT IN SOME LEVEL THREE CHARGERS.

THE TRANSFORMERS OVER THERE THAT YOUR STAFF CAN ATTEST TO.

I MEAN, IT WAS THEIR SIGNIFICANT AND WE JUST HAPPENED TO BE IN A LOCATION WHERE WE COULD GET THE COULD GET THE POWER FOR THE 480, FOR THE FOR THE LEVEL THREE CHARGERS.

BUT YOU KNOW, IN THE EVENT THAT THERE'S A NEED AND AS THAT NEED GROWS, I MEAN, THESE ARE FAIRLY SOPHISTICATED STRUCTURES, YOU KNOW, INSTALLING A LEVEL TWO CHARGERS, NOT THE END OF THE END OF THE WORLD. MOST OF THE GARAGES THAT WE HAVE DOWNTOWN WEST PALM BEACH, THE CITY HALL, WHICH DAN BUILT MANY YEARS AGO.

YOU KNOW, ALL OF THOSE HAVE BEEN RETROFITTED WITH MORE ELECTRIC CHARGERS.

SO AS NEED OCCURS, YOU KNOW, IT CERTAINLY COULD BE ADDED.

I BELIEVE THAT THERE'S SEVEN STATIONS IN THAT IN THE RESIDENTIAL GARAGE AND 10 CHARGING STATIONS IN THE SIX EIGHT GARAGE.

IS THAT CORRECT, MARTIN? I THINK IT'S ACTIVE AT THE BEGINNING AT THE TIME OF CONSTRUCTION, THAT'S CORRECT.

AND THEN IN THE RESIDENTIAL GARAGE, IT'S BEING PRE-WIRED TO BE ABLE TO ADD 10 ADDITIONAL.

SO IT HAS THE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO HAVE TWENTY SEVEN TOTAL EV CHARGING SPACES FOR THE PROGRAM. IS SEVEN GOING TO BE ENOUGH IN THE RESIDENTIAL? YOU WILL HAVE 10 MORE TO MAKE IT SEVENTEEN, IS WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, BUT THE SIX EIGHT GARAGE IS GOING TO HAVE THE 10.

SO IF YOU HAVE 10, 10, 10 OF THEIR 10, 10 DOUBLE SUITES, 20, NO, IT'S FIVE DOUBLES.

[03:35:07]

SO IF YOU HAVE A NINE HUNDRED AND NINETY EIGHT PARKING SPOTS AND YOU HAVE 10 PORTS FOR THAT WHOLE BUILDING, AND WE'RE STILL IN A SITUATION WHERE LIKE YOU GO IN AND YOU PLUG IT IN, YOU'RE THERE ALL DAY THERE GOING TO BE A LOT OF TENANTS THAT DON'T HAVE A PLACE TO PLUG IN THE CAR.

WE'RE ACTUALLY RUNNING, YOU CAN'T DO IT, BUT WE'RE ACTUALLY RUNNING CONDUIT TO ALMOST ALL THE SPACES AS WE'RE BUILDING IT.

WE KNOW OVER THE FUTURE.

I MEAN, THIS BUILDING IS A COMMITMENT FOR 20 TO 30 YEARS.

I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE TEARING DOWN MY OWN BUILDING 12 YEARS AGO.

BUT WE'RE THINKING MUCH FURTHER AHEAD.

SO THERE WILL BE CONDUITS ALMOST ON EVERY FLOOR WHERE IF WE DO NEED THEM, WE CAN PULL UP.

THANK YOU. THAT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE THEN.

OK. THAT IS IS THOUGHTFUL PLANNING.

OK. CHELSEA, YOU HAD A QUESTION.

FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU, MAYOR AND MARCIE FOR TAKING THAT ONE.

IT'S USUALLY CHELSEA.

THAT KIND OF NICE TO JUST SIT BACK AND WATCH ON THAT ONE TODAY.

I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION.

I'LL HAVE SOME COMMENTS LATER.

BUT WELL, FIRST, BEFORE I MAKE MY QUESTION, I DO WANT TO THANK OUR STAFF, PREVIOUS COUNCILS, MR., CARL, FOMO, OUR CITY MANAGER AND THE APPLICANT AND EVERYONE ELSE TODAY FOR SEEING THE FUTURE AND MAKING IT HAPPEN TONIGHT.

SO I'M REALLY HONORED TO BE SITTING HERE WHILE THIS TAKES PLACE.

SO THANK YOU, GUYS.

I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION WHICH I DID BRING UP DURING MY AGENDA REVIEW WAS ABOUT THE FIRST FLOOR OF THE RESIDENCES.

CAN YOU EXPLAIN SOME OF THE SAFETY TO ME THERE? AND SO BECAUSE IT'S CLOSE TO A ROAD, SO HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THAT OUR RESIDENTS ARE SAFE ON THAT FIRST FLOOR? ABSOLUTELY.

SO I'LL BRING UP THAT VIEW AGAIN OF THOSE GROUND FLOOR UNITS.

HERE SO WE HAVE WE HAVE DEVELOPED THESE PORCH AREAS, THE ENTRANCE OF THESE GROUND FLOOR UNITS TO BE WITH A SMALL GATE, A HIP GATE, IF YOU WILL, AT THE ENTRANCE TO THOSE THAT IS A SLIGHTLY ELEVATED ABOVE THE AREA, AS WELL AS PROVIDING A LANDSCAPE IN FRONT OF THOSE UNITS. SO THE IDEA BEING THAT THE LANDSCAPING PROVIDES SOME OF THAT SEPARATION FROM THE PUBLIC SIDEWALK TO SEPARATE THE SPACE AND THE SCREEN GATE.

SO YOU SEE THE MESH PORTION AS WELL AS THE SOLID PORTION, PROVIDES SOME OF THAT ADDITIONAL SECURITY. WORKING WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, WE FOUND THAT, YOU KNOW, IF THAT WAS ALL, YOU KNOW, IF IT WAS NOT OPAQUE AND YOU WERE TO LEAVE A BIKE OUT THERE, SOME TOYS OR SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY EASY TO SEE SOMEONE COULD COME UP AND TAKE IT RIGHT OFF THE PORCH. ALSO PROVIDING THE GATE ENTRANCE TO THAT LITTLE PATIO AREA IS AN ADDITIONAL SECURITY FEATURE, PROVIDING THAT SEPARATION.

SO FROM A SECURITY STANDPOINT, WE'RE TRYING TO SCREEN POTENTIAL ITEMS THAT MIGHT BE LEFT ON THE PORCH AS WELL AS PROVIDING A PHYSICAL BARRIER.

IF SOMEONE WANTS TO GO OVER, THEY COULD.

BUT AGAIN, GROUND FLOOR FACING UNITS WITH LOTS OF WINDOWS, EYES ON THE STREET, THAT SORT OF SEPTET STANDARD TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE PROVIDING THAT SECURITY FEATURE FOR THOSE UNITS, AND THEY'RE ALSO PROVIDING HOSTILE VEGETATION.

LOOK AT YOU. AT LEAST IT'S NOT FERNS.

AS LONG AS THERE'S NO FERNS, THERE WILL ALSO BE SECURITY CAMERAS FOR THE BUILDING.

RIGHT. AND I'M JUST THINKING, BUT ALSO JUST HOW CLOSE THE CARS ARE TO.

SO THAT'S IT'S, YOU KNOW, IT'S CONCERNING, BUT THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING MY QUESTION.

AND I JUST HAD TO TWO MORE.

THE FACADE OF THE BUILDING IS BEAUTIFUL.

THERE'S A LOT OF GLASS AND STAFF WAS NOT ABLE TO ANSWER THE QUESTION WHEN I ASKED IT AT THE AGENDA REVIEW. SO HOPEFULLY YOU WILL HAVE THE ANSWER ON HURRICANE PROTECTION.

I HAVE IN MY MIND ALL THOSE VISIONS FROM HOUSTON WHEN THE HURRICANE HIT AND THE FIRST THING THAT WENT WAS ALL THE GLASS AND THE OFFICE BUILDINGS DOWNTOWN.

AND WE ARE DEVELOPING OUR TOD WITH THIS AS THE THE FIRST STRUCTURE AND PROBABLY A LOT OF OTHERS THAT ARE GOING TO EMULATE IT.

WHAT PROTECTION IS THERE THERE? SO WITH WITH THE OFFICE BUILDING, I KNOW THE IMPACT CLASS AGAIN, HIGH EFFICIENCY CLASS THAT'S BEING UTILIZED. I BELIEVE THE ENTIRE BUILDING WAS DEVELOPED TO BE CATEGORY FIVE.

THAT'S CORRECT. THANK YOU.

OKAY. THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS IMPORTANT FROM THE START OF THE DESIGN.

EVEN THROUGH ALL THE ITERATIONS, WE WANTED TO KEEP THAT STANDARD.

ABSOLUTELY. OK, GREAT.

THAT'S THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.

THE OTHER QUESTION HAS IS ANOTHER TRAFFIC QUESTION.

IT'S IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT THE APPLICANT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR.

IT'S SOMETHING THAT EXISTS AND WE CAN'T DO MUCH ABOUT IT.

BUT I WAS WONDERING WHEN YOU'RE GOING EAST ON PGA BOULEVARD AND YOU COME UNDER THAT BRIDGE AND YOU ARE GETTING THAT MERGED LANES, TWO OF THEM OFF OF I-95 AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE RIGHT TURN ONTO RCA BOULEVARD.

IT COMES UP ON YOU AND NOBODY KNOWS WHAT TO DO.

IS THERE A WAY TO ENCOURAGE ENTRANCE OFF OF A ONE A SIGNAGE, THE ENTRANCE TO THE

[03:40:08]

COME IN, THEY'RE NOT SURE ABOUT THIS LIST PROVIDING SIGNAGE IN THAT LOCATION, BUT I BELIEVE THERE WAS A PART OF A PROPORTIONATE PAYMENT FOR AN ENHANCEMENT TO THE TURN LANE FROM ALTERNATE A1A TO RCA.

SO THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT COULD BE DONE IN THE FUTURE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE TRAFFIC IN THAT AREA IS ACCOUNTED FOR.

I JUST THOUGHT IF IT LOOKED MORE LIKE THIS IS THE ENTRANCE TO PGA STATION NOT COMING IN BY THE SUNOCO STATION RIGHT UNDER THE BRIDGE WHERE YOU GOT TO MAKE THAT RIGHT, THAT WELL DONE HEARING FOR FOR THE RECORD, WHEN EVERYTHING IS BUILT, I THINK THAT YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A SIGNIFICANT PRESENCE OF THIS PROJECT ON A 1A AND AS YOU'RE DRIVING BY, SO A1A WILL BE WILL BE USED MORE.

BUT ALSO AS THE SYNERGIES OF USES NOT ONLY HERE ON THIS SITE.

I MEAN, I MEAN TO THE, YOU KNOW, THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE HERE AND WORK AT RCA CENTER, IT'S JUST TO THE SOUTH, THE NORTH KORP PARK.

I MEAN, THERE'S A MILLION SQUARE FEET OF HIGH TECH AND SIGNIFICANT INDUSTRY LIFE SCIENCES THERE. YOU'VE GOT, YOU KNOW, AND TO THE NORTH.

YOU KNOW, I THINK WE'RE GOING TO SEE, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF DIFFERENT MODALITIES OF MOVEMENT, OF PEOPLE WALKING AND AND HOPEFULLY AS TIME PROGRESSES WITH OTHER TYPES OF TROLLEY SERVICES AND OTHER SERVICES THAT MIGHT COME ABOUT TO MOVE PEOPLE AROUND.

SO THE NICE PART ABOUT THIS SITE IS IF I'M WORKING THERE, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, WE'RE CHIODO GARDENS IS, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, HOW TO GET IN AND OUT OF THE SITE.

AND WE THINK THAT THAT WILL HAPPEN PRETTY, PRETTY.

PRETTY SOON. THERE WAS A RIGHT TURN LANE THAT WAS CONSTRUCTED A FEW YEARS AGO AS A PART OF THIS PROJECT FOR PGA STATION AT THE AT PGA BOULEVARD AND THE GAS STATION RIGHT THERE. SO THAT HELPS CERTAINLY ADDITIONAL, YOU KNOW, JUST ROADWAY SIGNAGE, NOT PROJECT SIGNAGE, YOU KNOW, COULD EASILY BE INSTALLED BY DOT TO HELP MAKE THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE MORE VISIBLE IN THE FUTURE.

WE HAVE ANOTHER BIG PROJECT THAT ULTIMATELY WILL WILL COME INTO THAT SPOT TO FURTHER COMPLICATE THAT RIGHT TURN.

SO HOPEFULLY, AS AS TIME GOES ON, THE INCREASES IN DENSITY HERE ARE GOING TO CREATE EVEN MORE SYNERGIES.

SO IT IT'S THE SYNERGIES, YOU KNOW, ARE INTENDED TO COME TOGETHER.

AND OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO HAVE THAT CRITICAL MASS ULTIMATELY THERE IN ORDER TO GET TRI RAIL THERE AND HAVING, YOU KNOW, LIGHT RAIL AND HOPEFULLY EVEN SOMETHING BETTER THAN THAT. YOU KNOW, IN THE FUTURE.

SO, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW.

IT'LL WORK.

OK. SO ON THAT, I WILL ASK FOR A MOTION AND A SECOND.

YOU HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION. I'M SORRY.

NO, NO. GO RIGHT AHEAD.

ASK QUESTIONS. BUT THIS IS EARLY JUNE, SO IT'S A BIG PROJECT.

WELL, YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO ASK YOU A QUESTION FOR YOU.

THE ART IN SOME PUBLIC PLACES, ALL THE ART THAT YOU HAVE IN THE PROJECT NOW IS THAT IS THAT ALREADY BEEN APPROVED BY THE IEP.

SO IT'S GOING TO COME TO THE EIP BOARD ALL THE ART PIECES THROUGH THE.

YEAH, THE LOCATIONS WE IDENTIFIED TODAY ARE GOING TO THE AP BOARD SOON.

IT'S BEEN UNDER REVIEW AND WE'VE GONE THROUGH A COUPLE OF ROUNDS OF REVIEW ON THAT, BUT IT HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED TO THIS POINT.

OK, SO THIS PRETTY MUCH FINISHES FIVE.

BE THIS, THIS PROJECT PRETTY MUCH FINISHES WHAT'S GOING ON THERE 2500 SQUARE AND YOU MENTIONED FOOD RESTAURANT OR, YOU KNOW, 2500 SQUARE FEET OF RESTAURANT FOR ALL OF THIS OFFICE SPACE. IS THAT GOING TO BE ENOUGH? IS THERE ROOM FOR MORE RESTAURANT SPACE? IT'S A MINIMUM TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S NOT LESS THAN 2500 SQUARE FEET.

WHAT WE WANTED TO DO WAS TO MAKE A COMMITMENT OUT OF THE BOX TO HAVE SOME SORT OF FOOD SERVICE THERE, YOU KNOW, FOR THE OFFICE WORKERS AND FOR THE EMPLOYEES THAT ARE, YOU KNOW, AND THOSE THAT LIVE IN IN THE RESIDENTIAL, SO THAT AT A MINIMUM THAT WOULD BE BUILT.

I THINK YOU NEED MORE THAN 20 ANY MORE OPTIONS.

YOU PROBABLY HAVE A MULTITUDE OF SMALLER RESTAURANTS.

SO YOU'RE YOUR TYPICAL RESTAURANT LIKE A JAY ALEXANDER'S, WHICH IS, YOU KNOW, ABOUT 6000 SQUARE FEET. THAT'S NOT THE TYPE OF RESTAURANT THAT WOULD HAPPEN HERE, BUT WHAT YOU COULD GET IS A PIZZA SHOP, A COFFEE SHOP AND ANOTHER.

AND SO WHAT WE WANTED TO DO WAS TO ENSURE OUT OF THE GATE AT A MINIMUM, TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED SQUARE FEET. BUT WHERE ELSE WOULD THEY GO? OTHER THAN THAT 7500 SQUARE FEET, THAT'S SEVEN THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED.

[03:45:02]

SO THERE'S NO REASON IF A RESTAURANT CAME HERE AND THE MARKET WAS THERE AND IT WAS RIGHT OR ANOTHER USER AND THEY WANTED TO BE ON THE GROUND FLOOR OF THE OFFICE BUILDING, THEY COULD BE THERE ON THE GROUND FLOOR WITH A DIRECT ACCESS RIGHT TO, YOU KNOW, RIGHT OUT TO THE STREET WITHOUT HAVING TO GO INTO THE BUILDING ITSELF.

THE IDEA THAT WE COULD ENGAGE THE STREET SO WE WOULD ANTICIPATE AS THIS DISTRICT EVOLVES, THAT YOU'LL HAVE MORE OF THOSE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES TO AID TO THE PEDESTRIAN SOMEBODY THAT MIGHT BE GETTING ON A TRAIN OR WALKING THAT WILL BE ABLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THOSE OF THOSE SPACES. SO IT'S FULLY FLEXIBLE AND ABLE TO DO THAT.

AND EVEN WHEN WE DID THE THE ENTIRE KINGDOM BUILDING, WE WORK WITH STAFF SO THAT THOSE THOSE SPACES, THOSE UNITS OR THE GROUND FLOOR OF THOSE OFFICE SPACES, THAT FRONT DESIGN CENTER DRIVE THAT MAIN DRIVE HAVE THE ABILITY TO HAVE DOORS PUT IN THEM AND BECOME ANOTHER USE OTHER THAN OFFICE OR MAYBE A RETAIL USE OR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES TYPE USE THAT WOULD AID MOBILITY AND CREATE THE ATTENTION FOR PEDESTRIANS.

YEAH, MINIMIZING THE NUMBER OF TIMES PEOPLE HAVE TO LEAVE THE AREAS IS THE KEY.

THANK YOU. CALL ME, YOU HAVE BEEN VERY PATIENT.

IT'S BEEN VERY QUIET.

SO I FORGOT YOU WERE THERE.

YOU KNOW, I'M NORMALLY QUIET.

I GUESS WE'VE BEEN BEATING THIS UP FOR ALMOST AN HOUR, SO I'M JUST GOING TO FOREGO MY TIME. I REALLY HAD ONLY HAD ONE WAS WASN'T EVEN A QUESTION, BUT IT WAS.

I'M JUST GOING TO BRING IT UP DURING DISCUSSION AND THEN JUST SO WE CAN SPEED THIS ALONG.

OK, SO LET'S GET A I JUST HAVE ONE.

MARCIE HAS ONE MORE QUESTION.

TAKE CARL'S TIME FOR ONE MORE QUESTION.

AND THAT IS MAYBE THE STAFF SINCE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT RESTAURANTS FOR THE OFFICE BUILDING. IS DO THEY HAVE TO COME BACK THROUGH THE PROCESS TO ADD AN ANCILLARY CAFÉ INSIDE THE OFFICE BUILDING? NO, THANK YOU.

OK. ALL RIGHT.

SO LET'S GET A MOTION THEN THE SECOND TO APPROVE.

LET ME MAKE THE MOTION.

YOU GOT IT. DO IT RIGHT.

I'M ABSOLUTELY GOING TO PROUDLY MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION.

SIXTY TWO TO TWENTY TWENTY ONE MINUS WITH WITH MINUS MINUS NUMBER THREE MINUS WAIVER NUMBER THREE.

I WILL SECOND THAT YOUR SECOND WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY THE A MOTION THAT CARL JUST MADE, WHICH EXCLUDES WAIVER THREE FROM THE APPROVAL.

OK, NOW I WILL BRING IT BACK FOR DISCUSSION AND CARL.

YOU ARE FIRST. WOW.

BRIEFLY, THIS IS THIS IS THE FUTURE OF PJ STATION AND HOW IT TIES INTO FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT, HOW IT TIES INTO DOWNTOWN AT THE GARDENS AND IT FITS OUR MOBILITY PLAN, OUR TODD VISION, PERFECTLY.

I APPRECIATE THE TWO YEARS OF BEING BEAT UP PLUS TRYING TO GET WHERE YOU'RE AT.

BUT I THINK IF YOU WERE TO TAKE A STEP BACK IN TIME AND YOU REALIZE WHERE YOU'RE AT NOW WITH THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CITY, YOU'RE PROBABLY HAPPY.

MAYBE YOU TOOK THIS JOURNEY TO GET WHERE YOU'RE AT.

I WHAT? I WANTED TO BRING IN THE COMPONENT OF TODD AND HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CATA FOOTBALL TEAM BECAUSE.

YOU GUYS WEREN'T HERE EARLIER, BUT THIS COUNCIL AND THE STAFF WE HAVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH, WITH OUR DEVELOPERS AND AND DAN, I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF STUFF ALL OVER THE PLACE.

BUT YOU KNOW, WITH THE AVANIR PEOPLE AND THE DOWNTOWN PEOPLE, THE FLORIDA LIGHT PEOPLE, AND IT GOES ON AND ON AND ON.

BUT YOU'RE TIED.

YOU'RE ENTERING INTO A RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS CITY AND GIVE THEM THE MIC ANYWAY.

I WANT YOU TO BRIEFLY EXPLAIN YOUR RELATIONSHIP AND THEN WHAT YOUR COMPONENT IS WITH THIS PROJECT AND HOW YOU'RE INVESTED INTO OUR COMMUNITY FOR THE LONG HAUL.

WELL, TODD, FOR THE RECORD, TODD, FEBURARY, THE RICHMOND GROUP, THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE HERE TONIGHT AND SPEAK AND FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY AS WELL.

WE GOT INTO THIS VENTURE AND KNOWING FULL WELL THAT WE WERE DOING IT TOGETHER WITH MR., CARL FUMO AND THE REST OF THE PROJECT.

AND WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE DONE THAT AND WE'VE BEEN VERY PLEASED WITH THE PROCESS WITH THE CITY. CITY STAFF HAS BEEN AMAZING.

THEY'VE REALLY WORKED IN A VERY PROFESSIONAL MANNER TO GET WHAT I THINK IS A PHENOMENAL

[03:50:03]

AND OBVIOUSLY FROM A RESIDENTIAL STANDPOINT, TO BE ABLE TO HAVE, YOU KNOW, A PROJECT OF THIS SIZE IN A LOCATION IN CLASS A CITY LIKE PALM BEACH GARDENS AND TO BE IN AN AREA WHERE FOLKS CAN LIVE HERE AND POTENTIALLY WALK TO WORK.

WALK TO SERVICES, WALK TO RESTAURANTS AND RETAIL IS FROM FROM A RESIDENTIAL OWNER STANDPOINT IS PHENOMENAL AND OBVIOUSLY ADDS THAT MUCH MORE VALUE TO OUR PROJECT AND TO, YOU KNOW, THE LONG TERM.

AND AS YOU KNOW, IN TERMS OF LONG TERM, THE RICHMOND GROUP IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN SOME OF THE OTHER DEVELOPERS BECAUSE I THINK SOMEONE MENTIONED EARLIER ON AND AND MR. PROFUMO UNDERSTANDS THIS IS THAT WE'RE LONG TERM HOLDERS.

WE DON'T TYPICALLY BUILD DEVELOPMENT, LEASE IT UP AND SELL IT.

WE'RE A VERTICALLY INTEGRATED RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT FIRM.

WE PROFESSIONALLY MANAGE ALL OF OUR PROJECTS ONCE THEY'RE COMPLETED, AND WE'LL BE INVOLVED EVERY STEP OF THE PROCESS AND WE'LL BE INVOLVED FOR MANY, MANY YEARS TO COME.

SO I THINK FROM THE CITY STANDPOINT, WE ARE THE, YOU KNOW, IDEAL DEVELOPER FOR THIS PROJECT BECAUSE OF THAT REASON, BECAUSE OF OUR LONG TERM COMMITMENT TO THE CITY.

AND LIKE I SAID, IT'S A GREAT CITY AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT WE HAVE A LOCAL PRESENCE HERE IN PALM BEACH COUNTY. WE'VE GOT AN OFFICE HERE IN PALM BEACH COUNTY.

WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR OVER 25 YEARS DOING DEVELOPMENT.

AND SO WE CAN'T REALLY STRESS ENOUGH HOW EXTREMELY EXCITED WE ARE ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY.

SO YOU'RE GOING TO MANAGE THIS BUILDING FOR 20 YEARS.

YES, WE, WE WE WE DON'T HAVE A THIRD PARTY MANAGEMENT.

WE PROFESSIONALLY MANAGE ALL OF OUR OWN BUILDINGS.

IT'S AN AFFILIATED OWNED COMPANY BY THE RICHMOND RICHMOND GROUP OF COMPANIES.

OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM WILL WILL MANAGE THIS PROJECT FOR MANY, MANY YEARS TO COME.

SO, YES, THANK YOU.

WHICH BRINGS QUALITY TO THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE WHEN WE HAVE A MANAGEMENT TEAM THAT OWNS THE BUILDING, YOU KNOW, SO I APPRECIATE THAT I'M GOING TO WHOLLY SUPPORT THIS BECAUSE IT IT REALLY IS THE VISION OF THE FUTURE AND WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE TO GET IT WRONG IN IN THIS PARTICULAR AREA OR ANYWHERE IN THE CITY.

WE DON'T GET IT WRONG, WHICH IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY, DAN, HOW WE TALK OVER AND OVER AND OVER JOEY TODD AND ON THIS PROJECT, YOU KNOW, IT'S REALLY THE BEGINNING OF MOBILITY AND OUR TODD VISION.

YOU KNOW THAT THIS COUNCIL SET UP AND AND OF COURSE, THE STAFF.

SO WE'RE, YOU KNOW, YOU GUYS NAILED IT.

AND YOU KNOW, I'M SO PROUD FOR YOU GUYS TO BE A PART OF THE PALM BEACH GARDENS FAMILY.

AND YOU KNOW, WE APPRECIATE REALLY, YOU KNOW, THE DOUBLE THE THE DOUBLING THE ART IN PUBLIC PLACES, WHICH IS KIND OF ONE OF MY PET PEEVES THAT ERIC JAVELIN SOMEHOW SHOVED INTO ME SOMEHOW. BUT, YOU KNOW, SO I APPRECIATE ALL OF IT.

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL BUILDING.

IT'S A GREAT LOCATION.

IT'S REALLY HIGH AND HIGH.

IT'S INTENSITY, HIGH DENSITY, AND IT REALLY FITS HERE.

AND YOU KNOW, I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE I GOT IT RIGHT ON MY VOTE BECAUSE SOMETIMES I'VE, YOU KNOW, I'M NOT AN ENGINEER AND SOMETIMES I VOTE FOR THESE THINGS.

AND THEN WHEN I SEE THEM, I'M LIKE, THAT'S HUGE, YOU KNOW, SO I KNOW I GOT THIS RIGHT FOR THE LONG TERM OF OUR COMMUNITY.

SO. BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR YOUR VOTE, I TRULY WANT TO THANK STAFF AND ESPECIALLY PETER.

HE PUSHED US TO A DIFFERENT LEVEL, WHICH AT A 40 PLUS YEARS ACTUALLY SPARKED AND MADE US GO SOMEWHERE WHERE WE NEVER THOUGHT AND STAFF HAS BEEN INCREDIBLE, VERY HARD, BUT VERY INCREDIBLE. THEY GOT THINGS THROUGH OUR LIGHT THAT WE DID NOT SEE BECAUSE WE WERE SO CLOSE TO THE PROJECT AGAIN.

I STARTED THIS JOURNEY 30 PLUS YEARS AGO WITH PALM BEACH GARDENS.

WE BOUGHT THE PROPERTY FROM MACARTHUR IN NINETEEN NINETY NINE, MADE US FEEL OLD BACK THEN AND WHEN IT WAS JUST GREEN.

AND LIKE I SAID, THIS IS A BIRTH OF THE NEW PARK AND I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

AND STAFF HAS DESIGNED OUR LITTLE HANDBOOK PERFECTLY FOR THE NEXT GENERATIONS.

YEAH. SO I HAVEN'T SAID IT, BUT THANK YOU, PETER AND AND ALL OF OUR OUR TEAM FOR MAKING SURE THIS GOT DONE RIGHT BECAUSE WE KNEW THIS WAS THE CORE OF OUR VISION.

YOU KNOW, WE KNOW AVANIR, YOU KNOW, IN PANTHER, THIS IS REALLY OUR CENTRAL OF EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE GOT GOING ON.

YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO GET THE TRAIN UP HERE.

WE NEED TO GET TRI RAIL UP HERE AND AND AND THIS IS THE FIRST BUILDING THAT'S

[03:55:03]

SO I'VE SAID ENOUGH AND I THANK YOU GUYS ONCE AGAIN FOR DOING EVERYTHING THAT YOU'VE DONE TO GET THIS RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

WELL, SAID MARK.

I THINK IT'S JUST IMPORTANT THAT THE RESIDENTS REMEMBER THAT THIS IS PART OF THE FUTURE OF THE CITY. IT WILL INCLUDE SOME CHALLENGES, OBVIOUSLY WITH TRAFFIC AND GROWTH, BUT THAT'S WHAT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU'RE A FORWARD THINKING CITY.

YOU KNOW, THIS, YOU KNOW, PALM BEACH GARDENS IS THE IS THE FINANCIAL CENTER OF THE NORTH PALM BEACH COUNTY AND AND THIS IS PART OF THAT VISION.

SO, YOU KNOW, THIS IS THE CITY THAT WAS PLANNED OUT MANY YEARS AGO.

AND YOU KNOW, WE'RE PART OF THE OF THE OF REALIZING THE PLAN AND PARTNERS LIKE YOU GUYS IS HELPING MAKE THIS AND IT'S GOING TO COME WITH SOME HEADACHES, BUT IT'S GOING TO COME WITH A WHOLE LOT MORE OPPORTUNITY, WHICH IS REALLY WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT.

SO THANK YOU. MARCIE, I'M NOT GOING TO TALK VERY LONG CARL, BUT I DO WANT TO THANK YOU AGAIN AND ALSO SINCE WE HAVE SUCH A GREAT RELATIONSHIP NOW, I JUST ENCOURAGE YOU TO BRING THE REST OF YOUR PROPERTY RIGHT INTO OUR CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS MOMENTS.

AND YEAH, THAT'S A GOOD POINT.

THIS IS RIGHT OFF. NINETY FIVE.

OH, OKAY. LET'S SEE, SO IF THERE WAS A PATTERN BOOK FOR TODD, I THINK THIS WOULD BE IT LIKE LITERALLY IF THERE IS A CHECKLIST OF HOW TO DO TODD, YOU GUYS WE HAVE, YOU HAVE DONE THAT. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT.

AND THIS IS LIKE I SAID BEFORE, WHY I WANTED TO BE HERE.

I WANTED TO PASS AND PROMOTE POLICY FOR OUR RESIDENTS THAT WOULD GIVE THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET AROUND WITHOUT A CAR TO HELP OUR URBAN CORE BECOME CONNECTED TO PUT IN SUSTAINABILITY. AND AGAIN, HONORED TO EVEN BE HERE.

AND I WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT JUST TO THINK ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE WORLD AND WHERE PALM BEACH GARDENS IS IN THAT AND OUR FORWARD THINKING WAYS, BECAUSE BUSINESSES ALL OVER AMERICA ARE GOING TO MIXED USE URBAN CENTERS NOW BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE LIFE IS, AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DEVELOPING HERE.

AND I REMEMBER DON TOLD ME ABOUT THIS LIKE FOUR YEARS AGO AND THEN NOW WE'RE HERE.

SO IT'S IT'S REALLY EXCITING TO SEE THAT WE ARE MAKING THIS PROJECT.

IT'S SUPPORTING SOCIAL CONNECTIONS, BUSINESS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, TRANSPORTATION, UTILIZING TRANSPORTATION AND LAND USE SO THAT WE HAVE MORE CHOICES.

SO AGAIN, I THINK WE'RE ALL SAYING THAT I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU FOR MAKING THIS HAPPEN. GOOD WORK.

THANK YOU, JOE SIMM.

WELL, CHANGE IS UNCOMFORTABLE, BUT IT'S EXCITING, AND THIS IS DEFINITELY EXCITING.

AND AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR THE THOUGHTFUL PLANNING OF HOW THIS WILL GO DOWN TO MINIMIZE THE DISCOMFORT THAT THE OTHER TENANTS HAVE AND THAT THE RESIDENTS WILL HAVE AS THIS BUILDOUT HAPPENS. SO EXCITED TO HAVE YOU AS A PARTNER AGAIN IN THE CITY AND THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY WHO WORKED ON IT, PETER AND THE REST OF THE STAFF FOR GETTING US TO THIS POINT.

SO WITH THAT ALL IN FAVOR, I.

ANY OF THOSE PASSES FIVE ZERO.

THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME.

THANK YOU. WE'RE GOING TO KEEP TALKING, THOUGH.

YOU GUYS CAN LEAVE. OK, SO WE ARE HAVE NO RESOLUTIONS, BUT WE ARE AT ITEMS FOR COUNCIL ACTION, DISCUSSION AND ITEM OF INTEREST.

AND I HAVE NONE.

I DID MINE UP FRONT.

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

I BELIEVE CHELSEA HAS ONE.

I HAVE LIKE THREE.

SO BUCKLE UP.

YEAH. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING BEFORE I GO? OK. MARCIE ARE YOU GOING TO GO ONE IN?

[X. ITEMS FOR COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION AND ITEMS OF INTEREST:]

ALL RIGHT. MINE'S VERY BRIEF.

AND I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT NOVEMBER IS THE TIME TO BE THANKFUL AND A TIME TO REMEMBER, AND A TIME TO EMBRACE THOSE THAT ENRICH OUR LIVES.

THIS CRAZY PANDEMIC HAS REALLY PUT MANY THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE FOR ME, AND I'M VERY THANKFUL AND GRATEFUL FOR MY HEALTH AND MY FAMILY, AND I'M ALSO SO VERY THANKFUL TO BE BACK ON THE COUNCIL AND WORKING WITH ALL OF YOU.

THAT'S IT. HAPPY THANKSGIVING! WELL, THAT WAS NICE.

ALL RIGHT. SO I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUICK THINGS.

NUMBER ONE WE DID AT THE TPA LAST MONTH, WE DID THE BRIGHT LINE PLEDGE.

SO I WILL SHARE THIS WITH EVERYBODY.

SO SINCE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ENCOURAGING A TRAIN STATION HERE, I WILL SHARE THAT WITH COUNSEL. MM HMM.

AND AT OUR NEXT COUNCIL MEETING, I'D LIKE TO BRING BACK UP OUR PURSUIT OF AN ORDINANCE FOR BALLOONS AND CONFETTI AND CONSIDER MOVING OUR STEERING RESOLUTION TO AN ORDINANCE.

SO I THOUGHT I'D GET THAT CONVERSATION GOING.

AND LASTLY, VERY GOOD NEWS.

THE TPA VOTED IN SOMETHING CALLED THE SRM PROGRAM, WHICH IS A STATE ROAD MODIFICATION PROGRAM, SO WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE ACCESS TO ABOUT $20 MILLION.

[04:00:05]

SO THAT'S WHAT THIS IS.

ANY STATE ROAD THAT WE DON'T HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER, EVEN THOUGH IT'S EVEN THOUGH IT'S IN PALM BEACH GARDENS, IF IT'S A STATE ROAD, WE WE DON'T DO ANYTHING WITH IT, IT'S THEIRS.

SO THE STATE REED MODIFICATION AND I'LL SEND OUT THE INFORMATION ON IT.

SO THE WAY IT WORKS IS THERE'S OVER $20 MILLION AVAILABLE TO ADVANCE SAFETY, COMPLETE STREETS OR ROADWAY MODIFICATION, USE FOR TRAFFIC CALMING INTERSECTION MODIFICATIONS, ALL OF THAT STUFF. SO THEY'RE GOING TO LET STAFF KNOW WELL AHEAD.

I THINK THE APPLICATIONS WILL BE DUE IN FEBRUARY SO WE CAN START EVEN IF IT'S NOT ONE OF OUR ROADS, BECAUSE WE ALREADY WORK WITH THE TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVES PROGRAM.

THAT'S WHERE WE'RE GETTING THE LIGHTS IN ON HOLLY AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

SO THIS IS ONE MORE FUNDING PROGRAM THAT WE NEED TO BE SMART ABOUT AND ASK FOR THAT MONEY FOR THE ROADS THAT ARE PART OF PALM BEACH GARDENS THAT AREN'T UNDER OUR CONTROL.

CAN WE GET THE RAILROAD TIES UP WITH THAT MONEY? YEAH, THAT MIGHT. ARE WE EVER GOING TO GET THOSE RAILROAD TIES UP? WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING THAT FIGHT FOR, WELL, MAYBE WE'LL FIND OUT.

SO LET'S FIND OUT IF THAT.

OH NO, WE WE GOT STATE FUNDING FROM FDOT FOR LANDSCAPING A1A, NOT ONLY THE MEDIANS, BUT ON THE RAILROAD SIDE, BUT IN THE ROAD MEETING AS WELL GETTING A A GRANT AND PERMISSION TO PLANT ON FEC RIGHT OF WAY.

TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY.

A LOT OF EXPERIENCE WITH NOT BEING ABLE TO DO THAT.

AGREED. OKAY, UNDERSTOOD.

WE'LL LOOK INTO IT.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

YEAH. NOW, MAX.

BEEN A LONG COUPLE OF WEEKS, MONTH, WELL, MONTH IS A COUPLE OF WEEKS, A MONTH AND A HALF.

YEAH, TOMORROW'S OUR FINAL IS THE LAST DAY OF OUR HEARING ON THE COUNTY'S MOTION FOR A TEMPORARY INJUNCTION.

[XI. CITY ATTORNEY REPORT:]

THEY HAVE THEIR REBUTTAL WITNESS.

WE'LL CROSS THEM. AND THEN AFTER THAT, IT'LL BE ODDLY, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE CLOSING ARGUMENTS, WHICH IS NOT SOMETHING THAT'S NORMALLY THAT COMMON IN A TEMPORARY INJUNCTIVE RELIEF HEARING. NORMALLY YOU END UP JUST WRITING A POST HEARING BRIEF.

BUT BE THAT AS IT MAY, WE'RE DOING BOTH AND WE'RE PROFFERING A PROPOSED ORDER TO THE JUDGE AS WELL.

I'M VERY, VERY PROUD OF THE OF THE LEGAL TEAM, MR. HAWKINS AND WOLPER, OUR ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY, AS WELL AS LANEY WILLIAMS, WHO IS A 3L AT UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA AND INTERNING AT JONES FOSTER.

SHE HAS BEEN. SHE'S A BRILLIANT LADY.

AND ALSO, I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE SUPPORT THAT WE'VE GOTTEN FROM THE CITY STAFF.

ALL OF THE EFFORTS, THIS HAS BEEN TRULY A TEAM EFFORT.

RESPONDING TO THE REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION THAT WERE HAD NO BASIS IN REALITY IN THE COUNTY DIDN'T EVEN NEED, BUT THEY JUST DID IT TO BE BASICALLY FOR RETRIBUTION.

THE DISCOVERY, ALL THE INTERROGATORIES THAT WE ANSWERED THAT WERE REALLY SOMEWHAT POINTLESS, BUT AGAIN, THEY JUST PROPOUNDED THEM BECAUSE THEY COULD BECAUSE IT WAS RETRIBUTION, AS WELL AS ALL THE DEPOSITIONS THAT THEY DID OF CITY STAFF, WHICH WAS ALMOST ENTIRELY RETRIBUTION.

SO I APPRECIATE THE SUPPORT FROM EVERYONE AND THEIR PATIENCE, AS WELL AS THE PATIENCE FROM THE STAFF AS THEY HAVE SOME OF THEIR LEGAL NEEDS.

MOST OF THEIR LEGAL NEEDS HAVE BEEN SITTING ON THE SHELF WAITING AS WE HAVE BEEN INUNDATED WITH THIS.

THIS WILL NOT BE THE END OF THIS FIGHT.

THIS IS JUST THE VERY, VERY BEGINNING.

I DO NOT BELIEVE WE WILL WIN THIS CASE AT THIS HEARING.

OUR OBJECTIVE IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE COUNTY DOESN'T GET THEIR TEMPORARY INJUNCTION.

GRANTED, THAT'S OUR GOAL.

BUT WHAT I CAN PROMISE YOU IS I'LL KEEP FIGHTING UNTIL YOU TELL ME TO QUIT OR THERE ARE NO AVENUES LEFT IN THE COURTS.

THANK YOU. WELL, GUYS, WE DID GOOD TONIGHT, WE DID SOME BIG, IMPORTANT, BIG, IMPORTANT STUFF. IT WAS A LONG LINE, BUT A VERY FULFILLING MEETING.

SO WITH THAT? HEY, MAX, BY THE WAY, MAX, IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR MAX, I DON'T HAVE A I JUST WANT TO MAKE A STATEMENT. YOU KNOW, I KNOW HOW HARD YOU'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS FOR THE PAST LONG TIME, AND I DO APPRECIATE IT AND KNOW EVERYONE HERE APPRECIATES WHAT YOU'RE DOING BECAUSE AS A COUNCIL AND AS A CITY, WE BELIEVE IN IT.

AND I THINK YOU'RE ONE OF THE BEST PEOPLE.

WE COULD HAVE TO FIGHT FOR IT. SO I KNOW YOU BELIEVE IT TOO.

SO THANKS FOR WHAT YOU DO. AND PROJECTS LIKE THIS LAST ONE DEPEND ON OUR SUCCESS WITH THE MOBILITY PLAN.

AND SO IT'S IT'S REAL IMPORTANT WORK BECAUSE WE DON'T GET THAT WITHOUT THIS.

SO ALL RIGHT WITH THAT FOR ALL YOUR EFFORTS AND.
