>> ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY I. ALTHOUGH SUPPOSED?

WE WILL MOVE TO NUMBER 14. >> I PULLED THIS AGENDA ITEM BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT THE COUNTY BUDGET AND THE COMMUNITY. I REALLY APPRECIATED AND I LOVE THE ENGAGEMENT IN I THINK THERE SHOULD BE MORE ENGAGEMENT AS WE MOVE FORWARD. IT'S NOT HELPING THE GOVERNMENT IT'S NOT HELPING US AS RESIDENTS , BUT THERE IS SOME, THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS RESIDENTS THAT HAVE ASKED ME, O THE 7 MILLION DOLLAR TOURISM BUDGETS, WHY CAN'T WE USE THAT MONEY TO PAY FOR OTHER THINGS. AT LIKE TO BRING TEDDY OUR TOURISM UP. TREY, CAN YOU COME TO THE DESK.

>> ONE OF THE THINGS I WANTED TO , AND ALL FIVE OF THIS NOTICE, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR THE PUBLIC TO UNDERSTAND TOURISM AN CLAY COUNTY. HOW MUCH OF PROPERTY TAX GOES T

TOURISM DOLLARS? >> NONE.

>> HOW MUCH OF GAS OR SALES TAX OR ANY KIND OF COUNTY FEE GOES

TO TOURISM DOLLARS? >> NONE.

>> THE 7 MILLION IN THAT BUDGET WHERE IS IT SOURCE?

>> IS SOURCED FROM DEVELOPMENT TAX WHICH IS CHARGED ON HOTEL ROOMS DAYS IN I THINK TEDDY CAN PROBABLY EXPLAIN BETTER HOW THA 5 CENTS IS BROKEN UP, BUT IT'S 5-CENT CHARGE, OR 5 PERCENT?

>> 5 PERCENT OF THE AIRBNB, EXTENDED-STAY PERCENTAGE FIRST.

>> THANKS QUESTION IS THE COUNT COMMISSION JUST NOT SET THAT

TEXT, CORRECT? >> ISSUED YOU.

IT WAS VOTED ON WHAT LEVEL THEY WANTED, ONE, TWO, THREE, AND

[00:55:02]

FOUR. THAT IS A BOARD DECISION.

THAT WAS PUT TO REFERENDUM IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN.

STRAIGHT BOARD DECISION. IT WAS MADE, BUT THAT IS ALL TH MONEY GENERATED FROM PEOPLE STAYING IN HOTELS HERE IN THE

COUNTY. >> THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT PAY THA BED TAX OR PEOPLE THAT STAY IN HOTELS IN A IN THE COUNTY.

>> HOTELS OR AIRBNB IS. SO TALK ABOUT THE STATE STATUTE 125.1043 AND THEN THEIR SUBSECTION C, D, AND I, M, AND END. TALK ABOUT HOW THIS DOLLARS CAN

BE SPENT. >> FOR A STATUTE, 40 PERCENT OF THE TOP HAS TO BE USED FOR MARKET, SO THINK ABOUT.

>> ON MARKETING ON TOURISM. >> PARTICULARLY PER STATUTE.

FOR EXAMPLE, EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT THE HOUSE IN ORLANDO.

OR ITS COUNTY IS 350 PLUS MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR, SO THEY'VE GOT TO DO 40 PERCENT OF THAT FOR TOURISM IN GENERAL.

WE ARE 1.7, AT 1.8 WE BROUGHT I LAST YEAR.

THEN WE HAVE TO COST CENTERS WE HAVE FIVE PENNIES, THE QUESTION I'VE GOTTEN BEFORE TWO, THERE I A 6-PENNY TO GET THE 6-PENNY, YET TO HAVE A PROFESSIONAL SPORTS FRANCHISE WITHIN YORK COUNTY. CLAY DOESN'T HAVE ONE YET.

WITH THAT, YET GOT THE TWO PENNIES THAT CATEGORIZE MOST OF OUR GRANTS AND THEN OUR MARKETING CONTRACTS.

ALABAMA MEDIA WHO WE HAVE CONTRACTED WITH PER STATUTE, AN SOME OF THE MARKETING YOU MAY SEE.

THERE IS A LOCAL CONTINGENT, SOME OF THE MARKETING YOU WANT SAY BECAUSE OF SOME OF OUR DRIV MARKETS.

MAY MA, TAMPA, ORLANDO, ATLANTA SOME OF THE THINGS THAT YOU SAY I DON'T SEE AN AND EXPLORE PLAY OR THINGS LIKE THAT, IT'S AT TH OTHER MARKETS BECAUSE WE'RE TRYING TO DRAW THEM TO COME HERE . ONE OF OUR OTHER CATEGORIES IS OUR CONTRACT WITH AIRSTREAM OR THRESHER HORN CONTRACT AS WELL.

A LOT OF OUR OPERATIONS AND WHA WE DO WITHIN OUR STAFF TO WORK WITH OTHER GROUPS AND PEOPLE BRING PEOPLE HERE.

>> ONE OF THE THINGS, ONCE AGAIN , NONE OF THESE TOURISM DOLLARS, WE COULD NOT SPEND IT ON INFRASTRUCTURE, WE CAN'T SPEND IT ON ANYTHING OTHER THAN TOURISM, WITH THAT BE CORRECT?

>> THAT WOULD BE CORRECT. >> BACK TO THE ACTUAL AGENDA ITEM, I WANT TO COMMEND YOU IN JUDGING METHOD TOURISM DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL, YOUR PRESENTED DATA AT NUMBERS OF TH REGIONAL SPORTS PARK AND SINCE THE PAST TWO YEARS.

>> LAST FISCAL YEAR, FOR THE REGIONAL PARK, THE REGIONAL PAR HOSTED JUST OVER 13,000 VISITOR OF WHICH 8,000 WERE OUTSIDE OF 50 MILES WHICH IS KIND OF THE INDUSTRY STANDARD.

VISIT FLORIDA GIVES US THAT. THEN THIS YEAR IS OF MONDAY, ACTUALLY SORRY, LAST MONDAY BECAUSE IT'S ONLY SEVEN DAYS, W HAD 89 A HALF THOUSAND FOR THE FISCAL YEAR IS OF--AND THEN WE HAD 27, ALMOST 28,000 OUTSIDE O 50 MILES, SO THE GROWTH IS SOMEWHERE IN THE 540 PERCENT I BELIEVE FOR THE OVERALL VISITOR IN ALMOST TO HUNDRED 40 PERCENT FOR THE VISITORS OUTSIDE OF 50 MILES. SO DOING A LOT OF GREAT THINGS

OUT THERE. >> I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT THER ARE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN OUR COMMUNITY THAT ARE BUSINESS OWNERS, THEY ARE IN GAS STATIONS , RESTAURANTS, THEY ARE HOTEL YEARS, AND TOURISM BRINGS BUSINESS TO THEM.

IT BRINGS BUSINESS TO THEM OTHE THAN PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN THE COMMUNITY WHICH THE ECONOMIC IMPACT IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT

AND THAT'S WHY WE DO IT. >> I WILL GIVE YOU TWO EXAMPLES.

WE HOSTED A MASSIVE LACROSSE TOURNAMENT SECOND WEEK IN JUNE, JUNE 13TH AND 14TH. LAST YEAR'S HOTEL REVENUE WAS U 100 PERCENT ON FRIDAY AND 113 PERCENT ON SATURDAY.

JUST FROM THOSE TWO DAYS. FAST-FORWARD, A SOCCER TOURNAMENT IN AUGUST, THE HOTEL REVENUE AND NOT JUST RESTAURANT AND THINGS LIKE THAT, THE HOTEL REVENUE FOR FRIDAY WAS UP 45 PERCENT IN IT WAS UP 64 PERCENT FOR SATURDAY, SO THAT TELLS YOU THE GROUPS THAT ARE COMING IN OUR THEN YOU CAN EXTRAPOLATE THAT, IT DEPENDS ON WHO YOU TALK TO YOU, BUT VISIT FLORIDA HAS A $100 MONIKER THEY USE ON TOP OF THAT TAX AND HOTE REVENUES BETWEEN EVERYTHING ELSE , BETWEEN GAS AND SHOPPING AND RESTAURANTS, THAT'S WHERE A LOT OF THAT COMES FROM.

>> THAT'S ALL I HAVE, I JUST WANT TO MOVE APPROVAL OF ITEM 19

. >> I HAVE SOMETHING.

I'D LIKE TO CONTINUE WITH HOW WONDERFUL TOURISM IS IN CLAY COUNTY. TOURISM AND CLAY COUNTY,

[01:00:02]

SERIOUSLY, YES, NOVEMBER 14 THROUGH 15TH THAT THEY CLAY COUNTY REGIONAL SPORTS COMPLEX, WE WILL HAVE 400 HOTEL ROOMS IN OUR COUNTY NOVEMBER 30TH, DECEMBER 1ST, 133 ROOMS GRADE THESE ARE PEOPLE COMING FROM OU OF OUR COUNTY BRINGING MONEY AN REVENUE INTO OUR COUNTY. I THINK THAT IS AMAZING.

1.8, THAT'S 1.8 MILLION. SO I THINK AMAZINGLY, I AM SO EXCITED TO CONTINUE SHERRICK THAT AND WHILE YOU'RE HERE, I HAVE TO RE- ANSWER E-MAILS CONSTANTLY ABOUT WHY, WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH THE COMPLEX GRADE WHAT ARE THE HOURS OF THE COMPLEX, WHY DO WE NOT HAVE IT OPEN ALL THE TIME, AND CAN YOU JUST KIND OF EXPOUND ON ALL OF THOSE THINGS BECAUSE I LIKE TO BE TRANSPARENT AND PUT IT OUT THERE AND HOPEFULLY WHO'S

SEPARATE LISTENING CAN SHARE IT. >> THERE IS A GATE TO THE COMPLEX, WE DON'T HAVE TO HIDE THAT, THE COMPLEXES OPEN MONDAY DAILY, THERE ARE ROUGHLY TEN JUST MAKE 15 SPOTS TO USE THE COMPLEX AFTER THAT. AND THEN IT'S OBVIOUSLY OPEN FO WEEKEND EVENTS. WE HAD NOT BENT THIS PAST SUNDA AND OLYMPIC DEVELOPMENT SOCCER EVENTS, WE HAVE SOME COMING UP AS WELL. IT IS ACCESSIBLE, BUT OBVIOUSLY IT IS A BIG TOURISM DRIVER. I THINK THE CONVERSATION THAT W LOOK AT IS HOW CAN WE MANAGE THAT.

I WILL SAY WE ARE WORKING WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT TO BRING TH MIDDLE SCHOOL SOCCER GAMES THEY ARE IN THE NEXT MONTH OR SO SO THAT WILL BE DURING THE BECAUSE WELL.

THERE ARE A LOT OF RELATIONSHIP WE ARE WORKING ON WHAT SOME OF THOSE THINGS. WHEN YOU ARE BRINGING A BIGGER EVENT IN THERE, YOU WANT TO MAK SURE THE SURFACE IS TAKING CARE OF. YOU CAN'T DISCRIMINATE AND MOVE ON. YOU HAVE TO BE KIND OF THE GROUNDING PRACTICES HAVE TO BE RIGHT, WHICH IS WHERE WE HAVE T CONTINUE TO FIND THAT MAKE STRAIGHT THE NUMBERS I GAVE YOU ON THE REGIONAL PARK, THERE IS LOT OF LOCAL RESIDENTS USING TH PARK BASED ON THOSE NUMBERS BECAUSE OUTSIDE OF 50 MILES IS LOT LESS. THAT IS SOMETHING TO ALSO

CONSIDER AS WELL. >> SUNRISE TO SUNSET YOU CAN GO WALK ON THE TRAIL OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO.

TO KEEP THE SIGNS AREN'T SAYING KEEP OFF THE GRASS, I THINK THAT'S THE OTHER KIND OF MISCONCEPTION THE FIELDS ARE OPEN, THEY ARE READY TO GO GREA ARE YOU TEARING IT UP? THAT'S A DIFFERENT STORY. THE GOALS ARE OUT THERE, THE LACROSSE GOALS, THE SOCCER GOALS .

>> AND THEY ARE AVAILABLE TO RENT FOR TEAMS, JUST LIKE ANY

OTHER PART. >> THAT IS CORRECT.

>> MAY I ASK A QUESTION? >> HOURS ARE 8-4, 8-430 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. BUT MY QUESTION WAS MORE BACK T YOUR SPECIAL EVENT GRANTS THAT YOU ALL TALKED ABOUT.

THESE ARE LOCAL EVENTS, SO THAT KIND OF THING, SO IF THERE ARE OTHER, I KNOW I SAW ON ONE OF THEM WAS THE SOLE FOOD FESTIVAL IN SOME OTHER THINGS, IF THERE IS AN EVENT GOING ON LOCALLY, HOW CAN AN ORGANIZATION, IS IT OPEN TO ANY ORGANIZATIONAL LOCA TO APPLY. GIGA SPECIAL EVENTS ARE NONPROFIT ONLY AND WE REDID THE GRANTS FOR THOSE SOMETIME IN TH SUMMER BECAUSE IT WAS SUPER ARDUOUS, IT WAS ALMOST 15-20 PAGES. WE WANTED MORE GROUPS TO KIND O BENEFIT FROM IT, SO WE REVAMPED IT FROM 15-18 PAGES TO ABOUT SEVEN. OBVIOUSLY YOU SEE THE INFLUX OF GROUPS ASKING FOR IT. WE ARE TRYING TO GET THE LOCAL EVENTS TO GROW, WE HOPE THIS CA GET THEM TO GO FROM ONE DATE TO TWO DAY. THAT IS WHAT WERE LOOKING TO DO AND ALSO EXPAND THE OPPORTUNITY FOR OF.

>> AND THEN, WHAT DO THEY, JUST MAKE-SPECIFICALLY WENT TO THEY

HAVE TO DO WITH THE MONEY? >> FOR THAT GRANTS, NO, WE TOOK AWAY THE MARKETING COMPONENT AN THERE'S REALLY THREE CATEGORIES QUALITY OF LIFE, WHICH IS MOST OF THEM, TODAY, AND THEN A KNEE.

, THERE IS ABOUT SEVEN OR EIGHT THE ONE THING WE DID CHANGE THI YEAR AS WE MODIFIED THE DECEMBE NEED PERIOD.

THERE IS LOTS OF THINGS IN DECEMBER.

WE ARE LITTLE BIT FULL AT THIS POINT, BUT IT'S REALLY JUST HITTING THOSE MARKS TO QUALIFY AND IT'S REALLY US, TOURISM STAFF WORKING WITH THEM TO GO THROUGH THE APPLICATION AND MAK SURE THEY HAVE EVERYTHING TO WORK WITH FRANCE ON THE BACK EN TO JUST REALLY GROWTH OF PEACE. WE WILL HAVE A COUPLE MORE IN NOVEMBER AND THEN WE WILL DO OU SECOND BATCH WAS IS THE SECOND

PHASE OF THE FISCAL YEAR. >> 'S SO THERE ARE TWO

APPLICATION PERIODS? >> WE WANTED TO GET TO A MORE

[01:05:04]

EFFICIENT MODEL AS WELL. WE ARE USING THIS FISCAL YEAR A A PILOT, SO WE ARE LIFTING PEOPLE GOVERNMENT IF THEY MISS THE DEADLINE TO HAVE THE AWARENESS OF IT.

THE MOST IMPORTANT PIECES GETTING THEM INVOLVED IN THE PROGRAM AND SEEING HOW WE CAN WORK WITH THEM TO GROW IT.

NUMBER 14 HAS THE FALL FESTIVAL IN ORANGE PARK.

IT WOULD BE GREAT IF SOME OF THESE SPECIAL EVENTS COULD BECOME THAT OR A PERCENTAGE OF THAT.

THAT IS THE GOAL. JOB. THINK YOU'RE DOING A GREAT- AND I APPRECIATE ALL YOUR EFFORT .

>> JUST TO CLARIFY, MAYBE I MISHEARD, THE WORD HAS TO GO FO

MARKETING, DIRECT EFFECTS. >> FOR THE SIGNATURE AND THIS WIRTZ EVENT A CUSTOM MARKETING AND SOME OF THE OPERATIONS OF

THE EVENT. >> TEDDY, THE BEST COMPONENT I WOULD LIKE YOU TO SHARE WITH TH GROUP IS HOW WE HAVE BEEN MORE FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE WITH THOSE FUNDS COMING IN.

NAMELY WHAT IS THE ROI WHEN WE ARE GIVING GRANTS TO THESE

PROJECTS COMING IN? >> THE BIGGEST ROI IS WE ARE ON THE BACKEND, GRANTS IS INVOLVED. IS TO BE MORE OF THE TOURISM MAKING THOSE DETERMINATION THAT WE HAVE GRANTS THAT DO OTHER TYPES OF GRANTS THAT ARE SEEKIN GRANTS AND BRING A GRANTS TO TH COUNTY. WE GO THROUGH THEM DIRECTLY TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE HITTING THE RIGHT CHECKMARK SO THEY ARE QUALIFYING FOR THE REIMBURSEMEN FOR THE HOTEL THAT THEY REACHED OR AT THE MARKETING THAT THEY DID IN SOCIAL CHANNELS OR OTHER DIFFERENT E-MAIL ADVERTISING AN THINGS LIKE THAT.

CHECKS AND BALANCES ARE MUCH BETTER AND THE DELIVERABLES ARE

MUCH CLEANER PERIODS. >> JUST TO PIGGYBACK OFF OF THAT , THESE GRANTS ARE REIMBURSABLE GRANTS.

AT SOME LIKE THE COUNTY SAYS HE WAS A CHECK FOR THIS, IT IS AFTER THE EVENT THEY HAVE TO SUBMIT RECEIPTS AND A LOT OF TIMES, THEY DON'T USE THE FULL AMOUNT SO THAT GOES BACK INTO

THE POT. >> THERE IS A VARIANCE THAT GOE BACK AND OBVIOUSLY IT CAN GO TO ANOTHER GRANTS DEPENDING ON WHE

THE FISCAL YEAR IT CAME. >> A NEW FOR APPROVAL.

>> SECOND. >> OTHERS IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

[16. Termination Notice related to Agreement 2024/2025-345, Funding Agreement between Clay County and Jacksonville Transportation Authority (K. Smith)]

>> MOTION AND THE SECOND, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.

>> AYE. >> ITEM 16.

ITEM 16 IS A LETTER TO RECOMMEN TERMINATION OF A CONTRACT WE HAVE AND I GET A LITTLE ANTSY WHEN I--THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT DEPEND ON THESE LINES OF TRANSPORTATION IN I GET THE LITTLE ANTSY WENNBERG GOING TO CANCEL SOMETHING WITHOUT KNOWIN ANY ALTERNATIVE FOR REPLACEMENT. WE HAVE MISSED SMITH HERE TO

TALK TO US ABOUT IT. >> GOOD AFTERNOON.

WE CURRENTLY HAVE A THREE YEAR AGREEMENT WITH HTA, YOU HEARD FROM MR. RICHARD EARLIER, THAT AGREEMENT IS ROUGHLY $1.4 MILLION PER EAR DURING OUR LAST TWO BUDGET WORKSHOPS, WE TALKED ABOUT REDUCING FUNDING O CERTAIN THINGS, SO THE DECISION WAS MADE TO REDUCE THAT BUDGET BY $500,000 AND AT THAT TIME WE HAD SHARED WITH YOU THAT WE WER STILL CONSTANTLY TALKING WITH GTA IN LOOKING AT OTHER SOURCES. BY STATE WHILE VACANT TO OBEY

[01:10:03]

WITH THE TD SERVICE, TRANSPORTATION TO SPANISH SERVICES, SO THAT IS NOT GOING TO GO AWAY, BUT PER OUR CURRENT AGREEMENT BECAUSE IT RUNS OVER THE THREE YEAR PERIOD, THE AGREEMENT ALLOWS FOR US TO PUT GTA ON NOTICE FOR 90 DAY TERMINATION, TO TERMINATE AT 90 DAYS.

OVER THE NEXT 90 DAYS WE ARE WORKING ON EITHER RENEGOTIATING SOME THINGS VERY THEY ARE STILL A BIG PLAYER IN THAT COUNTY, THEY HAVE SOME STATE FUNDING AN OBLIGATIONS, SO THAT PARTNERSHI IS GOING TO STAY. TO SOME DEGREE IN THEN WE ARE ALSO LOOKING AT OTHER AVENUES THAT FIT WITHIN OUR BUDGET THAT WE HAVE SET FOR NEXT FISCAL YEAR .

AGAIN, WE HAD TO GIVE THEM A 90 DAY NOTICE.

IT WILL BRING ANOTHER AGREEMENT BACK TO THE BOARD BEFORE DECEMBER 31ST. THAT WILL CLEARLY SPELL OUT WHA SERVICES WE ARE PROVIDING THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY.

>> TONIGHT WE ARE SET TO APPROV A BUDGET, WILL THAT AGREEMENT MATCH THE FUNDING LEVEL THAT WE HAVE AGREED UPON RIGHT NOW?

>> WHAT WE, IT WILL COVER US FROM OCTOBER 1ST THROUGH DECEMBER TO PROVIDE THE SERVICE THEY ARE CURRENTLY PROVIDING UNDER THE AGREEMENT IN THEN IT WILL ALLOW US FUNDING FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR. WE WILL TAKE WHAT'S LEFT AND FIND A PROGRAM THAT FITS THAT BUDGET.

>> AND MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. >> I WILL SECOND.

>> EMOTION IN AS I CAN. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

[20. Approval of Second Amendment to Roadway Construction Mobility Fee Credit Agreement between Clay County and Black Sound Development Company, LLC / Clay County Contract No. 2020/21-107 AM2 (C. Grimm)]

IT PASSES FIVE JUDGMENTS 0. NUMBER 20.

>> I PULLED THIS ITEM BECAUSE I HAD THE SAME CONCERNS THAT MR. CARTER DID WHEN I WAS BRIEFED ON THIS ITEM.

RICHARD, CAN YOU COME TO THAT MIKE, PLEASE,? COURTNEY, DURING MY BRIEF, WE DISCUSSED THIS ITEM AND DEPTH REGARDING MOBILITY FEE CREDITS GRADE EITHER YOU OR RICHARD, WHOEVER FEELS MORE COMFORTABLE EXPLAINING, CAN YOU TALK ABOUT WHERE THIS ROADWAY IS TO START WITH THAT?

>> IS SO, THIS ROADWAY IS CALLE VERBENA PARKWAY, SO IT CONNECTS HENSLEY TO SANDRIDGE OUT INTO THE LAKE AS.

AREA, A PORTION OF IT HAS ALREADY BEEN CONSTRUCTED, THE SANDRIDGE PORTION TAKE US FROM SANDRIDGE AND HEADS NORTH.

THIS WOULD BE THE PORTION THAT WOULD CONNECT TO THAT FROM HENDLEY AND CONNECT WITH IT FOR THAT THOROUGHFARE.

>> MY NEXT QUESTION IS RICHARD, JUST THE COUNTY OR DID THE COUNTY HAVE ANY PLAN TO BUILD A ROAD THERE?

>> YES, THE COUNTY LET ME SEE I I CAN SAY THIS CORRECTLY.

CALLED FOR A LARGE AMOUNT OF RESIDENTIAL DENSITY AND THAT AREA PRIDE WE HAVE A FIRE STATION UNDER CONSTRUCTION ONE ROAD OVER BIRD THIS WAS A VITAL CONNECTOR TO CONNECT SANDRIDGE TO HANDLEY ROAD WHICH BOTH OF THOSE ROADS WERE NEARING TWO LANE CAPACITY AND THAT IS A FIV LANE ROAD SO IT'S GOT ROOM TO GROW. IT WAS CONSIDERED AND INADEQUAT PUBLIC FACILITY, IN OTHER WORDS YES, IT WAS PLANNED.

THE ORIGINAL PLAN WAS TO GO ALL THE WAY TO COLLEGE DRIVE AND EXTEND IT. THEY FORGOT ABOUT BLACK CREEK, SO THAT THE CROSSING OF BLACK CREEK IS ON STATE ROAD 23 WHICH IS WHY YOU WERE HERE REFERRED T EARLY AS THE EXTENSION AND FOR

BEING A PARKWAY, IT IS OFFSET. >> WHAT WOULD BE YOUR ESTIMATED COST TO COMPLETE IT FROM WHAT'S THERE NOW TO WHERE IT'S GOING T BE. WHAT WOULD BE YOUR ESTIMATED

BALLPARK COST? >> I DON'T WANT TO CALL BACK TH STUDENTS, BUT IT IS A TWO LANE ROAD AND $9 MILLION A MILE, IT

WILL BE AROUND 14-15 MILLION. >> AND THIS, YOU MENTIONED IT AND MY BRIEF, WHAT IS THE MOBILITY CREDIT.

HOW MUCH IS THE CREDIT? >> IN CONNECTION WITH THE MOBILITY FEE ORDINANCE THAT WAS RECENTLY ADOPTED, IT RICHARD IN A TEAM OF CONSULTANTS CAME UP WITH THE ACTUAL VALUE TO INCLUD THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE ROAD AS WELL AS A LOT OF THE ITEMS INCLUDING THE RIGHT OF WAY WHIC INCLUDES WATER POND AS WELL AS CEI AND DESIGN COST. FOR THIS PARTICULAR SECTION, WHICH IS 1.1 TO MILES IT IS 14 MILLION, $285,449.

RICHARD CAN EXPLAIN IT IS BASED ON DOT NUMBER.

>> IT'S BASED ON DOT NUMBERS AS WELL AS THIS CASE, THE TRAFFIC WILL BE GENERATED BY THE RETAIL CENTER AT THE CORNER THEY ARE

[01:15:03]

REQUIRED TO INSTALL A BITE FOR TRAFFIC SIGNAL FOR THIS IS

ISSUED. >> THAT TRAFFIC LIGHT IS NOT PART OF THIS. THE DEVELOPER HAS TO PAY FOR THIS. THE COUNTY ISN'T PAYING A A DIM FOR THAT ROAD. IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT RIGHT FOR

FIRE RESCUE. >> WITH THE BEING REPLACED BY STATION 15 ON ROLLING VIEW BOULEVARD, NORTHBOUND, THERE WILL BE A CONNECTOR ROAD KNOWN AS CLOCK ISLAND.

BLOCK ISLAND PARK LAKE THAT GOE FOR MUSCLE ROAD TO THE EAST TO VERBENA PARKWAY. IT GIVES YOU A PARALLEL REALM.

IT'S A BUSY ROAD ON A RESIDENTIAL OF THAT ROAD WHICH IS A COMMERCIAL ROAD AND ALSO HAS AN INTERCHANGE ON STATE ROA 23. IT'S GOING TO BE ANOTHER WAY TO EFFICIENTLY TRAVEL THROUGH THE AREA INCLUDING FIRE RESCUE.

>> IF WE DID NOT GIVE CREDITS. >> IS SEE ITS ABODES THE NUMBER 14. 14-POINT TO MILLION, THAT IS TH

COST OF BUILDING THE ROAD. >> THAT IS THE ROAD AND THE

ACQUISITION. >> IF WE DON'T GIVE THE CREDITS AND THE DEVELOPER DOESN'T BUILD A ROAD, IT WOULD COST THE COUNT

$14 MILLION TO BUILD THE ROAD. >> MUCH MORE BECAUSE WE CAN DO

IT NOW. >> THAT'S OVER DURING THIS.

>> THE WAY IT WORKS IS WHEN YOU TAKE THE FILLY PHILLY AND THAT DISTRICTS, WHICH IS THE NUMBER SOMEWHERE IN THE 15-$16,000 PER HOME. THAT IS WHEN IT'S FATE PAID, WITH THAT CLOSEST. IS NOT PAID WHEN MS. THOUGHT ABOUT, IT'S NOT PAID WHEN THEY GET A PERMIT, IT'S PAID WHEN THEY MOVE IMPAIRED GIG IT'S PAI AN ELECTRICAL CLEARANCE.

>> AT THE POINT IS, THAT MONEY IS NOT IN OUR BANK UNTIL IN THI CASE, YOU WOULD NEED RIGHT AROUND 1,000 HOMES TO BE SOLD T

GET TO THAT POINT. >> THAT IS A GOOD POINT TOO BECAUSE IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE BUILDERS DIDN'T BUILD THEM, THE SAT ON THEM, SO THE COST OF WHA WOULD HAVE BEEN BUILT THEM THEY GOT IN 2019 WAS THREEFOLD. THERE WAS THAT PIECE TO.

THAT'S ALL THEY HAVE, MADAM CHAIR.

I WILL MOVE APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER 20.

>> I WANTED TO KNOW IF THE APPLICANT IS THERE.

YOU AREN'T GOING TO LIKE TALKIN TO ME, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU ON THI ONE SUBDIVISION, AND DISTRACT U RANK ON HERE FOR A CREDITS I DON'T LOVE MOBILITY FEE CREDITS I DON'T MIND THE CREDITS, I APPRECIATE YOUR BUILDING THE ROAD IN I UNDERSTAND THE MATH O THAT EITHER YOU COULD COLLECT THE WE COULD BUILD THE ROAD OR YOU CAN GET THE CREDITS. MY ISSUE IS WITH THE STATE LAW AND THAT IS THE EXCESS CREDITS, SO IF YOU END UP WITH ALL THESE ACCESS CREDITS IN THERE THERE'S NO EXPIRATION ON THEM, THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M NOT HAPPY ABOUT TODAY.

WHEN WE HAD ABOUT CONSTITUENTS THAT WE'RE REALLY UNHAPPY ABOUT ASBURY AMICK, AND THEY CAME AND TALKED TO US EITHER MEETING, AN AT THE TIME, I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS BEING BUILT BECAUSE IT NEVE HAD TO COME BEFORE US BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE ENTITLEMENTS, YOU HAVE THE ZONING. YOU COULD BUILD THE SUBDIVISION JUST FOLLOWING COUNTY CODE AND SO AGED AND HAVE THE OPPORTUNIT TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION. MY ISSUE IS THAT YOU DO A LOT O WORK HERE, I KNOW YOU'RE LOCAL AND WE APPRECIATE THE WORK YOU DO YOU START WORK ON THAT SUBDIVISION WITHOUT PERMITS, THERE WAS WE WATCH THE VIDEO SO THEY WENT OUT THERE MYSELF AND WATCHED FROM THE STREETS, I DID NOT GO ON YOUR PROPERTY BECAUSE I DIDN'T PRESS TRESPASS, I DIDN'T HAVE YOUR PERMISSION.

I SAW OF REFUELING OF VEHICLES THAT WITH FUEL SPILLING ALL OVE

[01:20:04]

THE GROUND AND A LOT OF THAT AREA IS WETLANDS AS YOU KNOW, I JUST FELT LIKE THERE WAS JUST NOT THAT RESPECT AND THE COMPLIANCE WITH STATE LAW, COUNTY ORDINANCES, SO I'M NOT GOING TO SUPPORT IT TO JAY, NOT BECAUSE I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH TH MOBILITY FEE CREDITS, BUT BECAUSE I'M GOING TO USE MY VOT TO SEND YOU A MESSAGE THAT THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

I KNOW ONCE WE FOUND OUT ABOUT IT, WE GOT THE VIDEOS THAT OUR GROUP STEPPED IN AND YOU GOT YOUR PERMITS AND YOU WENT THROUGH THE WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT AGAIN I GUESS YOU FINALLY GOT YOUR SECOND ENTRANC AND ALL OF THAT, BUT IT WAS

REALLY DISAPPOINTING TO ME. >> THINK YOU'RE.

UNDERSTAND. WE AGREE, THAT WAS A MISTAKE THAT WAS MADE IN THE FIELD. WE THOUGHT THAT THE CREWS WERE OUT THERE DOING THE WORK THEY WERE ALLOWED TO BE DOING TO STA AWAY FROM THAT WETLANDS. AND WE PAID THE FINE, WE DIDN'T DISPUTE IT, WE DIDN'T ARGUE WIT YOU ABOUT THAT BRIGHT APOLOGIES IT'S NOT LIKE HOW WE LIKE TO DO BUSINESS.

AS FAR AS A SECOND DRIVEWAY, THAT WAS A LOT OF WORK, IT WAS AN ADVENTURE. I THINK THE COMMISSIONER CAN BACK ME UP, WE HAD AN APPROVED SITE UPLANDS AND WHEN THIS CAME TO OUR ATTENTION FROM THE COMMUNITY AND THROUGH THE STAFF AND THROUGH THE BOARD, WE FOR EVENTS ARE ALREADY APPROVED PLANS AND SAID OKAY, WE WANT TO WORK WITH YOU HERE SO WE BUILT THE SECOND ENTRANCE AT SIGNIFICANT COST, WE ARE DOING LOT OF THINGS, SO I AGREE WITH YOU, THAT THAT WASN'T THE BEST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN, AND IT WASN'T SOMETHING WE PLANNED.

WE DIDN'T SAY LET'S GET OUT THERE AND TRY TO GET AHEAD OF IT . WE PAID THE FINE AND WE HAD WE ABATED UNTIL WE HAD EVERYTHING LABELED.

APOLOGIES, BUT WE UNDERSTAND YO CAN VOTE HOW YOU CAN VOTE.

WE WOULD URGE THE BOARD TO SUPPORT US SO WE CAN GET BACK T WORKING ON THE ROAD IN WE WILL BE AT THEIR TO MAKE SURE THAT

DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN VERY. >> THANK YOU.

I OF COURSE WENT THROUGH ALL OF THAT AND I DO APPRECIATE YOU ANSWERING PHONE CALLS AND THE BUILDER ACTUALLY THAN AFTER THE TOOK OVER WE'RE STEADILY COMING OUT THERE TO LISTEN TO THE RESIDENCE AND DOING ANYTHING THEY COULD WITH BUFFERS AND FENCES. THEY DID WHAT THEY COULD AND WE'RE VERY HELPFUL, SO YES, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW ME, I DON'T LIKE DEVELOPMENT, BUT WE KNOW IT'S THERE AND YOU HAVE BEEN EASY TO WORK WITH. I AM GLAD IT TURNED OUT THAT WAY

. >> WE WANT TO WORK HERE FOR A LONG TIME. WE CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO MAKE PEOPLE MAD. I DO HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION.

I WANTED TO ASK COURTNEY, I'M SORRY, MISTER MEGAN, THANK YOU.

I COMPLETELY RESPECT IS THERE A PROCESS IN THIS STATE STATUTE, NOTE THAT MOBILITY FEE ORDINANC WAS WRITTEN FOR THE STATUTES, S OUT WE ARE DOING IS FOLLOWING THE STATE STATUTE BECAUSE WE'VE ADOPTED MOBILITY FEES. , DO THEY HAVE TO TURN IN RECEIPTS, THINKING ABOUT THE TD STAFF AND THE GRANTS AND THINGS DID THEY HAVE TO TURN INTO THE COUNTY WHAT THE ROAD COST FROM AND THEN THE CREDITS CAN'T GO OVER THAT.

>> THIS IS A SET AMOUNT, SO IT' REALLY A GAMBLE FOR THEM BECAUS IT COULD COME IN ABOUT HIGHER THAN THE AMOUNT BECAUSE THIS IS SOMETHING YOU HAVE NOW SET IN 2026, AND IF THEY DON'T BUILD I INTO 27, 28, 29, THEN THIS FIGURE WHEN IT WAS DEVELOPED AN COULD RESULT IN A BENEFIT TO THEM IF THEY ARE ABLE TO GET IT

DONE QUICKLY IN TO THAT PRICE. >> THAT BRINGS A QUESTION.

DO WE KNOW IT WE ARE GOING TO BUILD THAT CRACKS THAT'S

[01:25:02]

IMPORTANT TO ME. >> WE ARE HOPING TO GET STARTED NEXT MONTH. WE ALL HEARD ABOUT DIESEL FUEL PRICES, LET'S RAISE THE NUMBER ON WHAT WE'RE SPENDING SOBER HAVE BEEN TO GO BACK TO THE TRACTOR AND IT IS DEFINITELY GOING UP WITH DIESEL AT $7 A GALLON.

>> STATION 15 MOVING AND ALL OF THAT.

>> WE ARE AS SOON AS WE HAVE THAT FINAL NUMBER, THE NEXT TIM I SEE YOU HOPEFULLY WILL BE AS WE ARE UNDER WAY.

>> ANOTHER RIGHT-OF-WAY FOR THI IS ALREADY BEEN PLOTTED AND

DONATED TO THE COUNTY. >> THE STORMWATER FUNDS AND ALL

OF THAT RIGHT AWAY. >> I HAVE A MOTION.

>> A SECOND. ANYBODY?

>> I WILL SECOND THAT MOTION. >> EMOTION AND A SECOND.

Selig)An application to rezone one parcel (tax parcel identification # 02-05-25-008968-001-00), totaling approximately 2.11 acres, from Neighborhood Business District (BA) to Community Business District (BB-2).]

TERMS SURTAIN'S, 21 WITH THE PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER

ADOPTION. >> IS ANYONE THAT IS GOING TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM, PLEASE STAN AND BE SWORN IN? IF YOU COULD COME TO THE CENTER OF THE ROOM ALSO.

>> FRASER RIGHT HAND. DO YOU SOLEMNLY SWEAR OR AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU ARE ABOUT TO GIVE IS THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP YOU GOD?

>> THANK YOU. >> GOOD EVENING, ALL.

THIS APPLICATION ZONE 2618, IS FOR ONE PARCEL OF LAND, WITH TH CPH CONSULTING. PROPERTIES THIS IS IN COMMISSIO DISTRICT ONE, AND IT'S PLANNING JUSTIN, OAKLEY PRINT AND RIDGE THE PROPERTY IS TO .11 ACRES AN THAT CHANGE WOULD BE REZONING FROM NEIGHBORHOOD DISTRICT TO COMMUNITY BUSINESS DISTRICT WHICH IS BB TOO. THE SIGNAGE WAS PLACED OUT ON THE PROPERTY. IT WAS SENT OUT TO ALL OF THE BUDDING PROPERTY OWNERS. THE PARCEL MAP ON THE LEFT, YOU COULD SEE THE PROPERTY IS ON TH EAST SIDE OF TARA FARMS DRIVE.

IT IS CURRENTLY VACANT AND IT I PROPOSED TO HAVE TWO USES ON IT ON THE EAST SIDE WOULD BE RETAI USE AND ON THE WEST SIDE OF IT WOULD BE AN AUTO PARTS STORE, SPECIFICALLY, AUTOZONE.

ON THE RIGHT WE HAVE THE PROPOSED ZONING WHICH IS THE BB TOO. AUGUST 3RD, THE PAPER TO REPORT JUDGMENT SERVER TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL AND ON SEPTEMBER 1ST LIKE THE PLANNING COMMISSION HEARD THIS ITEM IN THEY VOTED SEVEN DISH-0 TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL.

STAFF IS LOOKED AT THE CRITERIA IN IS ALSO RECOMMENDING APPROVA

OF THIS ITEM.. >> SO, IF YOU GO BACK TO THE MAP. SO, SOUTH OF THE PROPOSED PROPERTY, THERE'S A HOUSE RIGHT THERE AT LEAST ON THIS MAP LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A RESIDENCE. IS THERE A BUFFER REQUIREMENT ON

THE PROPERTY LINE? >> THERE WILL BE BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE COMMERCIAL USE AGAINST RESIDENTIAL ZONING OR USE.

>> DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT BUFFER IS.

>> I BELIEVE IT'S A 20 FOOT BUFFER.

YOU CAN CORRECT ME. THANK.

>> IS IT A FENCE? SIT PLANTS?

WHAT'S THE BUFFER? >> IT'S A LANDSCAPE BUFFER AND

[01:30:04]

I'M NOT SURE IF THEY'RE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A FENCE VS. A WALL.

>> OKAY, BUT IT HAS TO BE AT LEAST 6 FEET HIGH.

OKAY. GOT YOU.

ALL RIGHT. AND THEN I JUST HAVE, I'LL WAIT BUT I HAVE MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE USES WE CAN DISCUSS.

>> OKAY, WHENEVER. >> AFTER THE HEARING.

>> OKAY. OKAY.

THE APPLICANT LIKE TO SPEAK? >> GOOD AFTERNOON, I'M HUNTER JOHNSON WITH CPH CONSULTING LEILANI LC, I WOULD LIKE TO APOLOGIZE FOR MR. DEANGLO'S ABSENCE.

EMERGENCY CAME UP SO I'M HERE INSTEAD FOR HIM.

SO YES WE HAVE THE SPLIKS ■TO RESOAP IS THIS PARCEL FROM THE CURRENT B.A. NEIGHBORHOOD DISTRICT ZONE TO GO THE BB-2 ZONING COMMUNITY BUSINESS DISTRICT TO ALLOW FOR THE USE OF THE AUTO PARTS SALES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THAT AUTOZONE AND THE SHARED LOT WITH THE FAMILY DOLLAR THERE.

AUTOZONE IS GOING TO BE LEASING THAT PORTION OF THE PROPERTY FROM THE PROPERTY OWNER AND THEN THE OWNER IS BUILDING THE ADJACENT FAMILY DOLLAR AND THE COMMON ACCESS DRIVES AND SUCH.

AND THE CHANGE IN ZONING DOESN'T INTRODUCE A NEW TYPE OF YOU KNOW BUSINESS ZONE OR ZONING TO THE PROPERTY.

IT STAYS AS A COMMERCIAL USE. THEREFORE, WE BELIEVE THAT THE REQUESTED CHANGE WOULD NOT DISRUPT THE EXISTING INTENT OF THAT CR-220 BUSINESS CORRIDOR THERE.

WE WILL OF COURSE BE FOLLOWING ALL YOU KNOW COUNTY REQUIREMENTS OR GUIDELINES WHEN IT COMES TO THE SITE DEVELOPMENT AS WE GO THROUGH PERMITTING ON THE AUTOZONE SITE THERE.

SO ANY YOU KNOW LANDSCAPE BUFFERS LIKE YOU MENTIONED EARLIER ALL THE STORM WATER REQUIREMENTS BOTH BY COUNTY AND THE WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT WILL BE FOLLOWED TO THE GUIDELINES THERE. YES.

>> SO A CLOSE BREAK DOWN PRELIMINARY BREAK DOWN OF THE CONCEPT OF THE SITE PLAN, 6815 FOOT BUILDING WITH 632 PARKING SPACES WHICH IS CARVED OUT OF THE OVERALL PORTION OF THAT PROPERTY WE ARE LOOKING TO CHANGE WITH THE FAMILY DOLLAR BEING ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE LOT.

HERE'S A BIT MORE OF A LARGER VIEW OF THE TRUCK ROUTE, ACCESS AND SUCH. WE INTEND MOST GARBAGE TRUCKS AND DELIVERIES TO COME INTO THE SITE AND COME OUT.

AND THEN FOR YOU KNOW SOME OF THE CONCERNS WITH THE RESIDENTIAL AREA TO THE SOUTH SITE LIGHTING WILL BE BELOW THE PROPERTIES AND RIGHTS THE BULL TYPE FIXTURE SHIELDING AND LIGHT LEVELS WILL COMPLY WITH COUNTY REQUIREMENTS WE HAVE A PHOTO OH METRIC DEVELOPMENT READY FOR REVIEW WHEN IT DPOMS THE DRC AND RETAIL ORIENTED WON'T INCLUDE OUTDOOR SERVICE REPAIR OR OPERATIONS AUTOZONE DOESN'T ALLOW ON SIDE PAINT IS IN ANSWER OF VEHICLES IN THE PARKING LOT THEY HAVE ALLOWANCE TO DO SIMPLE BATTERY TEST OR DIAGNOSTICS BUT NOT FULL ON REPAIR OPERATIONS.

LIKE I MENTIONED IT WILL BE CON SHARED WITH THE OVERALL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STORM WATER, THE SYSTEM UNDERWATER MANAGEMENT REVIEW INCLUDES DRIVER FILTRATION POND INTENTION COMPONENTS INTENDED TO AVOID FLOODING IMPACT ON THE ADJACENT PROPERTIES THERE. WE HAVE THE 15 FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER INCORPORATED ON THE TRANSPORT FARMS DRIVE COUNSEL TIM FRONT DAMAGES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSTRAINTS MITIGATED FOR BY THE MASSER DEVELOPER OF THE SITE AND BROOUFD THE APPROPRIATE LOCAL STATE FEDERAL PERMITS, TREE REMOVAL REPLACE LANDSCAPING WILL COMPLY WITH THE CLAY COUNTY REQUIREMENTS THERE AND THEN JUST ANOTHER OVERALL VIEW THERE TO

END WITH. >> QUESTION.

I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT A FAMILY DOLLAR.

SO IT'S THE SAME BUILDING? >> NOT THE SAME BUILDING.

IT'S THE SAME LOT TWO SEPARATE BUILDINGS.

[01:35:03]

THEY HAVE A SHARED ACCESS DRIVE SPLITTING THEM IN THE MIDDLE THERE. EXCUSE ME.

>> YES. >> AFTER THE PUBLIC HEARING.

ONE OF YOUR FIRST SLIDES HAD AN AUTO SHACK.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS ARTIST RENDITION.

IT'S AUTOZONE? >> YES.

>> I NEVER HEARD OF AUTO SHACK. >> IT'S INTENDED TO BE AUTOZONE.

DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS MISTYPING ON OUR END.

>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. >> ALL RIGHT.

OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. ANYBODY LIKE TO SPEAK? HELLO. MY NEAL IS HELENA CORMORA.

I DID NOT ADD IN NUMBER. PLEASE DO.

I SAW IS THIS I WAS SURPRISED THEY DIDN'T COME IN AND DO A PLANNED COMMERCIAL GEPD AND I DON'T LIKE THE BLANKET BB-2 ZONING BECAUSE IT'S INTEND FOR LEASE FOR AUTOZONE AND DIFFERENT USAGE BUT WHAT'S THERE LATER SO YOU GIVE THAT BLANKET ZONING IT BECOMES AN ISSUE LATER SO I HOPE THAT MAYBE AS YOU ALL ARE THINKING THIS I COMMISSIONER SGROMOLO YOU WOULD HAVE WAITED TO PRESENT BEFORE YOU TALK -- YES THANK YOU SIR FOR ADDRESSING IT BUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN HELPFUL FOR ME TO HAVE KNOWN WHAT WAS SAID ON SOME OF THAT BEFORE I SPOKE FOR THE PUBLIC COMMENT SO I WOULD HAVE LIKE TO HEARD WHAT SOME OF THOSE OPINIONS WERE SO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN HELPFUL.

BUT THAT IS A BIG CONCERN BECAUSE YOU KNOW, PLANS CHANGE AS A REALTOR I KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW PEOPLE INTEND TO DOG SOMETHING AND SOMETHING FALLS THROUGH AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE BUT YOU WILL HAVE A BBT ZONING SO THANK.

>> THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE? CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. BRING IT BACK TO THE BOARD.

>> MADAM CHAIR BEFORE COMMISSIONER SGROMOLO ADDRESSES USES CAN DOTY ADDRESS THE OVERALL DIFFERENCE? LIKE I UNDERSTAND A PKD OR PUD GIVES MORE CONTROL BUT THEY'RE NOT DIFFERENT USES THAN THE BB-2.

YOU STILL CAN'T JUST SAY THAT A PARCEL CAN ONLY BE A CERTAIN BUSINESS. RIGHT?

OBVIOUSLY -- >> YOU CAN'T SAY IT CAN BE JUST ONE FRANCHISE NAME. I MEAN YOU'RE TARGETING USE.

>> YOU'RE SAYING IT CAN ONLY BY AN AUTO PARTS STORE.

LIKE THEY'RE ALLOWED USES EVEN IN A PCD.

>> USUALLY MOST DEVELOPERS WANT TO HAVE SOME FLEXIBILITY BECAUSE CHANGE HAPPENS. RIGHT?

>> RIGHT. >> SO YOU KNOW, THE TENANT THAT THEY HAVE NOW THAT WANTS TO BUILD TODAY MIGHT TO YOUR POINT MIGHT NOT BE THERE THREE OR FIVE YEARS FROM NOW AND THEY DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO COME BACK AND GO BACK THROUGH THE REZONING AND IF THERE ARE SIMILAR USES THEY WANT FLEXIBILITY TO LEASE IT TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO IS KIND OF SORT OF SIMILAR.

YOU COULD. I WOULD HAVE TO DEFER TO LEGAL BUT YOU COULD I SUPPOSE YES HAVE A PUD THAT LITERALLY HAD ONLY ONE USE. I DON'T KNOW THAT THE LAW

PRECLUES THAT. >> IT'S JUST INTRUIGING TO ME BECAUSE WE HAVE NOW HEARD FROM A DIFFERENT MEETINGS RECENTLY ABOUT YOU KNOW THAT SOME COUNTIES LIKE WE HAVE ALWAYS PREFERRED THOSE AND I UNDERSTAND THAT, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THIS IS A COMMERCIAL PARCEL ANYWAY. I DON'T KNOW.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND MY QUESTION? >> YES AND I THINK IF YOU LOOKED AT THE MAYBE WHAT YOU'RE GETTING AT IS THE LIST OF USES THAT ALREADY EXIST UNDER B.A., THOSE ARE I THINK, AND DOTY CORRECT ME, THOSE ARE CORRECTED IN BB-2 BUT BB-2 EXPANDS AND GIVES MORE

USES. >> INDEED.

>> BUT I DON'T SEE WHERE AN APPLICANT WOULD COME AND

ELIMINATE ANY OF THAT. >> RIGHT, SO IF THEY CAME WITH A BA TO CHANGE IT TO A PCD OR PUD THAT WOULD BE THEIR PREFERENCE OR OPTIONCHY KNOW PREVIOUSLY ON ANOTHER PARCEL NEXT DOOR THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT SO THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE IT.

>> THANK YOU. AND JUST QUICKLY, MADAM CHAIR I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER THE EX PARTE DISCLOSURES.

>> DO WE HAVE ANY? >> YES, I SPOKE WITH HIS

[01:40:06]

ASSOCIATE. WHAT'S YOUR ASSOCIATE'S NAME? I HAD A PHONE CALL MR. D'ANGELO YESTERDAY.

>> I HAD NONE. >> SO MADAM CHAIR, JUST SOME OF THE USES IN BB 2 I'M CONCERNED WITH AND I WOULD PREFER LINE ITEM STRIKE. DO I HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO

THAT? >> I DON'T THINK SO.

NO. >> I CAN'T SUPPORT IT THEN UNDER THESE USES. THERE'S HAVE BEEN SPECIFIC THINGS THAT I TWO LIKE TO STRIKE.

SO I'M NOT GOING TO SUPPORT IT UNDER BB-2.

>> WOULD YOU WANT TO SHARE WHICH USES?

>> SURE, ADULT ENTERTAINMENT ESTABLISHMENTS AND ADULT ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESSES AS DESIGNED BY REGULATIONS, THERE'S ALREADY TWO GAS STATIONS LIKE, I WOULD LIKE TO STRIKE DRUG STORE, I WOULD LIKE TO STRIKE SALES FROM VEHICLES.

LIKE TO STRIKE RECREATIONAL VEHICLE AND BOAT STORAGE.

>> OKAY. >> THAT WAS, I WAS EXPECTING SOME OF THOSE BUT SOME OF THOSE WERE NEW TO ME.

THAT'S ENTIRELY YOUR PREROGATIVE.

>> IT'S JUST BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION AND WE HAVE SEEN WHAT HAPPENS ON YOU KNOW BLANEY BOULEVARD WHEN WE SAY SURE DO WHATEVER YOU WANT SO I'M NOT GOING TO LET THAT, I WOULD LIKE TO NOT LET THAT HAPPEN WITHIN MY DISTRICT.

>> WHY CAN'T WE STRIKE IT? >> WHY CAN'T WE STRIKE IT?

>> THAT'S WHAT I IT WAS TRYING TO GET AT.

>> IT WOULD HAVE TO BE A PCD. >> IN ORDER FOR YOU TO DESIGN THE USES YOU NEED THAT CONTRACTUAL ZONING CATEGORY.

>> WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO COME WITH THIS THEN?

WHAT'S THE REASON? >> THE APPLICATION FIRST CAME FORWARD REALLY WENT DRC BECAUSE THE RETAIL USE NEXT DOOR IS PERMITTED USE UNDER B.A. AND WHEN THEY CAME FORWARD, WITH THIS USE WE REALIZED THAT YOU CAN'T HAVE AUTO PARTS SALES.

IT'S SPECIFICALLY CALLED OUT IN OUR CODE.

WHEN IT'S CALLED OUT AND IT'S NOT LISTED IN B.A. THIS THEREFORE CAN'T USE THE B.A. THEY NEEDED TO REZONE TO HAVE AUTOZONE THERE SO STAFF LOOKED AT THE NEXT INTENSITY OF COMMERCIAL USE, THE LOWEST ONE THAT WOULD ALLOW THE AUTO SALES.

NOT AUTOS, BUT PARTS, SALES, WHICH HAPPENS THROB BB-2.

THERE ARE THREE PARCELS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF THIS PROPERTY THAT ARE ALREADY BB-2. THEY'RE THE, LET ME FIND MY LITTLE FLICKER. THEY'RE THESE MID GRAY COLORS SO THIS PARCEL SHEER THIS PARCEL HERE AND YOU CAN JUST SEE THE EDGE OF IT HERE IT'S ABOUT A PARCEL THIS BIG THAT'S BB-2 AND GETS TO BB-3. SO STAFF FELT THAT IT WAS A REASONABLY CAPABLE WITH THE AREA KIND OF A USE OR NOT USE BUT ZONING DISTRICT TO RECOMMEND THAT THEY GO FORWARD AND WOULD

ALLOW THAT. >> HEARING THAT WHAT WOULD YOU

RECOMMEND NOW? >> WELL, I MEAN I CAN RELIEVE SOME OF YOUR CONCERN ABOUT THE AT LEAST THE AUTO, I KEEP SAYING THAT, THE ADULT ENTERTAINMENT USE.

THAT HAS DISTANCE REQUIREMENTS. THAT THIS PARCEL CANNOT MEET.

SO IT COULD NOT BE THERE BECAUSE YOU HAVE A SCHOOL.

YOU HAVE A CHURCH, WHICH A PS-1 IS THE PINK SO YOU'VE GOT TWO CHURCHES RIGHT NEXT DOOR AND LITERALLY THE SOUTH PARCEL IS

RESIDENTIAL. >> AND MARIJUANA.

>> THOSE TWO USES WOULDN'T BE ALLOWED BECAUSE THOSE ARE SOMETIMES OBJECTIONAL. THAT WAS YOUR ONLY CONCERN YOU

DID HAVE OTHERS, SO RIGHT. >> AND DOTY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMMISSIONERS THE OTHER USES DO YOU KNOW IF THOSE ARE ALLOWED

IN THE B.A. OR NEW TO A BB-2? >> LET ME TA

BB-. >> I DON'T SEE IF REMEMBERING THE ONES YOU HAD I DON'T SEE THOSE AS IN, EXCEPT -- NO.

THAT'S NOT IT. I DON'T THINK THOSE ARE ALLOWED IN B.A. IT'S TAKING A QUICK LOOK THROUGH THEM. NOW, YOU KNOW HOW OUR CODE NESTS

[01:45:09]

ZONING. >> YOU SAID DRUG STORES, RIGHT?

>> YEAH. >> YEAH, THAT'S IN B.A.

>> IT COULD BE A DRUG STORE TODAY.

>> RIGHT. >> I MEAN, JUST ANOTHER EXCLAMATION POINT WE HAVE GOT TO GET OUR CODE UPDATED BECAUSE THIS IS THE SECOND OR THIRD TIME THAT WE HAVE SEEN A PARCEL WITH B.A. ZONING THAT'S FROM THE '80S WHICH IS A LONG, LONG, CLAY COUNTY HAS CHANGED SO MUCH AND THAT ZONING WAS INTENDED FOR EXISTING HOMES TO BE CONVERTED INTO COMMERCIAL YOU LIKE SO SOMEBODY TAKES A HOUSE AND MAKES NIGHT A DOCTOR'S OFFICE OR DENTISTS OFFICE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND THEY HAD THE HEIGHT RESTRICTION. IT CAN ONLY BE THE ONE STORY, AND YOU KNOW, AND LIKE YOU SAID, THERE'S ALREADY TWO CONVENIENCE STORES THERE SO DOES THAT PRECLUDE SOMEONE ELSE FROM HAVING? YOU KNOW THE FAMILY DOLLAR WHAT'S REALLY THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FAMILY DOLLAR AND AUTOZONE? BUT I UNDERSTAND YOU KNOW I UNDERSTAND HOW YOU FEEL AND BLANDING IS WE ARE TRYING TO OUR INITIATIVES HAVE A LITTLE BIT GONE BY THE WAYSIDE BUT WE HAVE THE BLANDING BOULEVARD REDEVELOPMENT INITIATIVE FOR A REASON YOU KNOW BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT ALL THOSE PARCELS SITTING EMPTY, BUT I THINK THIS, YOU KNOW, TO MY, JUST OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD I CAN RECALL THIS IS NOW THE THIRD OR FOURTH PARCEL THAT WE HAVEN'T HAD A PLACE TO PUT. SO WE'VE JUST FOUND THE ZONING THAT KIND OF FITS, BUT IT DOESN'T EXACTLY FIT, AND THERE'S NO REASON THAT THERE SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO BE AN AUTOZONE RIGHT

THERE. >> I THINK IT'S A GREAT PLACE

FOR IT. >> IT'S FINE.

I DON'T LIKE THE OTHER USES. >> I HATE THAT BECAUSE IF THEY GET A DENIAL TONIGHT, THEY CAN'T COME BACK FOR A YEAR I THINK IT IS. IS IT A YEAR? SIX MONTHS. SO THEY'RE LIMITED ON SIX MONTH, AND IT'S NOT THEIR ISSUE. YOU KNOW, THAT'S THE DOWN SIDE

OF IT. >> YEAH.

>> YEAH, THEY COULD WITHDRAW. >> AND THEN WHAT? WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND THEM COMING BACK WITH? YEAH, THEN WE CAN SPECIFY THE USES, YEAH.

AND NOT TO PUT THE DEVELOPER ON THE SPOT BUT BEFORE MY BRIEFING I HADN'T BEEN CONTACTED, SO YOU GOT TO DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE.

>> SO, THEY CAME TO DRC AND THAT'S HOW YOU FOUND OUT THAT THEY WERE GOING TO PUT THIS HERE WITH THE FAMILY DOLLAR.

NOBODY KNEW BEFORE THEN BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T KNOW BALLS THEY

THOUGHT COMMERCIAL, COMMERCIAL. >> RIGHT.

YOU WOULD HAVE KIND OF EXPECTED RETAIL WOULD HAVE BEEN RETAIL BUT IN OUR CODE IT'S CALLED OUT DIFFERENTLY.

>> GAOUNT TO COME BACK UP? I KNOW YOU PROBABLY WISH YOUR

BOSS WAS HERE. >> WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?

>> WELL, IF THERE'S FROM WHAT I FOLLOW LIKE ONE OF THE ACTIONS WE COULD DO WOULD BE TO BE GETTING A PUD WITH A SPECIFIC USE DETAILED FOR THE AUTO PARTS STORE RATHER THAN SWITCHING OVER OR TRYING TO GET THIS ZONING SWITCHED OVER.

IS THAT CORRECT? OKAY.

BASED ON THE DISCUSSION I THINK WE WOULD LIKE TO WITHDRAW THE APPLICATION FOR THE ZONING CHANGE AND DISCUSS THAT FURTHER ON FOR A DIFFERENT OPTION THAT CAN SATISFY EVERYONE HERE.

>> THANK YOU. >> DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE A MOTION?

MOTION TO CONTINUE. >> TO APPROVE THE WITHDRAWAL.

>> ACTUALLY IF HE WITH DRAWS IT THEN YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO VOTE ONLY. AS LONG AS HE AFFIRMATIVELY STATES HE'S WITHDRAWING THE APPLICATION.

>> WE ARE WITHDRAWING THE APPLICATION.

>> OKAY. THANK YOU.

AS A FOLLOWUP, WHEN AND IF THEY DO COME BACK, WE NEED TO BE AWARE THAT WE ALREADY APPROVED AND HAVE BUILDING PERMITS FOR THE OTHER USE ON THE SITE. SO WE DO NEED TO HAVE RETAIL, WHICH IS THEIR USE, AS APPROVED USE, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT WHAT USES TO ALLOW IN A PCD.

[01:50:02]

>> OKAY. >> ALL RIGHT, SO WHAT IS THE FAMILY DOLLAR CALLED? LIKE WHAT KIND OF STORE IS THAT?

>> IT'S JUST RETAIL, JUST KIND OF --

>> BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT WHERE THE DOLLAR -- THE DOLLAR GENERAL IN CLAY HILL WE WERE NOT ALLOWED TO OPPOSE BECAUSE IT COULD ALSO BE A CONVENIENCE STOERMT SO IF A FAMILY DOLLAR IS ALREADY APPROVED THERE I DON'T THINK WE CAN ELIMINATE A CONVENIENCE

STORE. >> IT'S A DIFFERENT PARCEL.

>> I KNOW THAT. BUT WHAT I'M SAYING IS WE COULD NOT OBJECT BACK WHEN THEY WERE GOING TO BUILD THE DOLLAR GENERAL IN CLAY HILL THAT THEY BUILT WHICH IS ON COUNTY ROAD 218 AND YOU'VE PROBABLY NEVER BEEN THERE.

>> I'VE BEEN THERE COMMISSIONER. >> IT'S DIRECTLY ACROSS 218 FROM CLAY HILL ELEMENTARY AND WE WERE NOT ABLE TO WE NEVER EVEN HEARD IT. IT NEVER HAD TO COME FOR ANYTHING BECAUSE IT WAS ALREADY ZONED THAT IT COULD BE A CONVENIENCE STORE SO THEY COULD PUT A DOLLAR GENERAL THERE.

BECAUSE IT WAS IN THE SAME USES. AND, SO, I'M WONDERING IF WHEN THEY COME WITH THEIR PUD BECAUSE WE HAVE THE FAMILY DOLLAR THERE, THAT'S ALREADY APPROVED IF WE CONDITIONAL SAY NO CONVENIENCE

STORE. >> I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT I GUESS WE WILL HAVE TO LOOK AND SEE.

NBA KP PUT IT THERE. >> THEY COULD BUT THEY WANT AUTOZONE BUT THAT GIVES US THE ABILITY IF THEY GO TO LIMIT USES, IF I HAVE THE LEVER TOP PULL THAT THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO

DO. >> ALL RIGHT.

I HEAR YOU. I JUST DON'T THINK YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU THINK YOU CAN WITH THE CONVENIENCE STORE BECAUSE THEY SAID FAMILY DOLLAR IS ALREADY APPROVED THERE AND IS ALREADY

DRC. >> AND I WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGHT THAT FAMILY DOLLAR WOULD BE CONSIDERED A CONVENIENCE STORE.

>> WELL, DOLLAR GENERAL WOULD. IT WAS NOT CONSIDERED, IT WAS

CONSIDERED IN THE FRAME. >> WE WILL DEFINITELY TAKE THAT

UNDER ADVISEMENT. >> IT'S ONE OF THE NICEST DOLLAR GENERALS IN CLAY COUNTY BECAUSE OF THE CLAY HILL OVERLAY BUT THE PUBLIC WANTED TO OPPOSE IT AT THE TIME AND WE COULD NOT.

LIKE IT DIDN'T EVEN COME TO THE BOARD.

SO, I THINK WE HAVE TO BE REALLY CAREFUL.

I WOULD LIKE US TO. >> ALL RIGHT, SO YOU'RE GOING TO

[24. 5:05 p.m. or as soon thereafter as can be heard - Second and Final Public Hearing - Adoption of Final Millage and Budget for FY 2026-2027, and approval of the Resolution adopting the final levying of ad valorem taxes for Clay County (including special taxing districts and dependent taxing districts in Clay County) for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 and the Resolution adopting the final budget for Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

THE AGGREGATE MILLAGE IS EXPRESSED AS PERCENTAGE COMPARED WITH THE ROLL BACK ARRANGEMENT MILLAGE AND IS NECESSARY TO FUND THE BUDGET. THE AGGREGATE IS CALCULATED WITH THE TAX BY THE APPRAISER AND THE FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027 AGGREGATE OPERATING MILLAGE RATE IS 789.5931 MILLS WHICH IS CURRENT MORE THAN THE CURRENT RATE BY MORE THAN 3.6 PERCENT.

ARE THEY STAYING THE SAME? ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> ANYONE ELSE ARE THERE ANY COMMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS FROM THE BOARD? I APPRECIATE THE QUESTION BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT WE ARE NOT RAISING THE MILLAGE RIGHT SO PEOPLE SEE INCREASE ON THEIR TAXES IT'S THEIR PROPERTY VALUE DRIVING IT, AND THERE IS AN APPEAL PROCESS.

[25. Public Hearing to consider Transmittal of COMP 26-0017. (District 5, Comm Burke) (D. Selig)This application is a Large Scale Comprehensive Plan Map and Text Amendment to change portions of one parcel (39.47 acres) from Business Park (BP) and Rural Reserve (RRSV) to Rural Reserve (RRSV) and Business Park (BP) and to change a second parcel (18.13 acres) from Agriculture (AG) to Business Park (BP). The application also includes text amendments to FLU Policy 1.4.1.14 and FLU Policy 1.10.2.]

>> ALL RIGHT, MOVING ON TO 25 PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER TRANSMITTAL OF COMP IN MILE DISTRICT WITH DOTY.

>> LARGE SCALE AMENDMENT INCLUDES THE TEXT SECTION AND THE MAP SECTION. THE APPLICANT IS HAYDEN PHILLIPS WITH ROGERS TOWERS. THE PROPERTY INVOLVED THERE IS TWO PARCELS AND THEY SIT BETWEEN STATE ROAD 16 WHICH IS TO THE SOUTH, AND COUNTY ROAD 315 WHICH IS ON THE EASTERN SIDE AND ROSEMARY HILL ROAD WHICH IS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY.

THIS IS IN THE SPRINGS PLANNING DISTRICT.

IT'S IN COMMISSION DISTRICT 5 UNDER COMMISSIONER BURKE.

THE PARCELS, THERE IS ONE PARCEL THAT IS 18.13 ACRES.

IT'S CURRENTLY AGRICULTURE AND IT'S PROPOSED TO BE CHANGED TO BUSINESS PARK FOR FUTURE LAND USE DECEMBER NATIONS.

THAT WAS A RECENT ADDITION BY THE APPLICANT TO THEIR OVERALL PROJECT. THE OVERALL PROJECT IT'S THE PETERS CREEK BUSINESS PARK IS THE SAME.

AND IT WAS ORIGINALLY CREATED IN 2006, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.

THE LAND USE TO B.P. WAS ESTABLISHED AT THAT TIME AND ALSO, THE ZONING WHICH IS A PUD. THE CHANGES THAT ARE BROUGHT FORWARD FOR THE MAP AMENDMENT PARK ARE DRIVEN PRIMARILY BECAUSE THE COUNTY HAS A FUTURE, TWO FUTURE DASH LINE ROADS ON THAT PROPERTY. AND, AT THE TIME WHEN THIS WAS ESTABLISHED THEY KIND OF THOUGHT THEY KNEW WHERE 315 WAS GOING TO GO BUT YOU KNOW OVER TIME HERE WE ARE 20 YEARS LATER AND WE HAVE A LITTLE BETTER IDEA NOW FROM ENGINEERING SIDE ABOUT WHERE THE 315 ALIGNMENT AS WE HAVE ALWAYS CALLED IT WOULD ACTUALLY BE. THE APPLICANT WANTS TO BASICALLY USE THAT ROAD AS A DIVIDER AND MOVE THE BUSINESS PARK FUTURE LAND USE AND USES TO THE WEST SIDE OF THIS NEW ROAD THAT WOULD BE COMING UP FROM WHERE SPRING BANK IS NOW, AND THEN KEEP ALL THE RESIDENTIAL TO THE RIGHT SIDE OR THE EAST SIDE OF THAT ROAD. THE ROAD MAKES AN OBVIOUS INTENTIONAL DEMARCATION IN THOSE USES WHICH IS MORE INDUSTRIAL THAN RESIDENTIAL. THE PORTION OF THAT LARGE PARCEL THAT WERE PART OF THE ORIGINAL PUD, THERE'S ALMOST 36 ACHEERS THAT WOULD GO FROM BUSINESS PARK NOW TO RURAL RESERVE, AND THEN A 3.7 ACRE PIECE THAT WOULD GO FROM RURAL RESERVE TO BUSINESS PARK. I'LL SHOW YOU ON THE MAP WITH A COUPLE OF SLIDES THAT WILL MAKE A LITTLE MORE SENSE BUT BASICALLY THEY'RE REALIGNING. SO, IT RESULTS IN A INCREASE IN

[02:05:07]

NON-RESIDENTIAL OF ABOUT 194,000 AND RESIDENTIAL SUSZ ABOUT 47 DWELLING UNITS. THE TEXT PART OF THIS, THERE'S TWO POLICIES, SO 14114 THESE WERE INTENDED OR ARE INTENDED, THEY WERE ORIGINLLY DRAFTED FOR THE PREVIOUS CONCEPT OF WHAT THIS BUSINESS PARK WOULD BE. WE HAVE 20 YEARS THOUGHTS ON THAT SO THE APPLICANT WOULD LIKE TO AMEND THIS LANGUAGE.

IT WAS AS I SAID ORIGINALLY WRITTEN FOR THAT PREVIOUS VERSION. SO WE HAVE TWEAKED, MADE SOMEBODY TWEAKS. WE CHANGED LIGHT INTO LIGHT POLLUTION, BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS NOT A PROBLEM BUT THE POLLUTION IS. BETTER DEFINE PERMITTED USES ADDED TO THE LIST OF PERMITTED USES THAT A PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITIES HOSPITAL OR MEDICAL USES EDUCATIONAL USES COMMERCIAL IN ADDITION TO RETAIL, AND THEN ELIMINATED THIS MULTI-TENANT BUILDING REQUIREMENT. THAT WAS IN THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE. THEN THAT POLICY CONTINUES ON, WITH ADDED AN ALLOWANCE FOR INTERIOR BALCONIES OR MEZZANIENES TO BE OMITTED FROM THE FAR CALCULATIONS DESIGNATION AND WE HAVE ALSO ADDED IN OTHER PLANNED DEVELOPMENTS CATEGORY PUBLIC PCD AND PID RECOGNIZING THAT YOU KNOW, THIS B.P. LAND USE MAYBE APPLIED AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE ON A DIFFERENT PAL SELL ALTOGETHER WHICH MIGHT WANT TO BE A UNIVERSITY CAMPUS OR A HOSPITAL MEDICAL CAMPUS OR SOMETHING DIFFERENT FROM THIS INTENDED USE WHICH IS MORE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL SO WE ARE JUST TRYING TO KEEP SOME FLEXIBILITY AND ALSO MEET THEIR NEEDS AND FOR THAT REASON, WE HAVE ADDED THE CLARIFIED THAT LANDSCAPE PARKING LOTS TOOK OUT THE SHADED BY TREES PART AND ALLOWED THAT PARKING LOTS THAT ARE SPECIFICALLY DEDICATED FOR TRUCKS OR SEMI TRAILERS THEIR PARKING DOES NOT NEED TO COMPLY WITH THE INTERIOR PARKING LOT LANDSCAPE ISLANDS.

WHEN YOU HAVE A LOT OF SEMIS YOU HAVE LANDSCAPE ISLANDS AND THE TRUCKS ARE MOVING AROUND THE TREES WITH ALL GREAT INTENTIONS WIND UP SUFFERING. SO WE HAVE ALREADY ADDED SIMILAR PIECE FOR THE LANDSCAPING ADJOINING THE BUILDING.

TOOK OUT THE TREE LINED STREETS AND THE TRANSIT DESIGN AND TOOK OUT THE BICYCLE PATHWAYS, IF IT'S SPECIFICALLY INDUSTRIAL DISTRIBUTION PRIVATE ROAD. THE OTHER POLICY, AGAIN THIS WAS WRITTEN QUITE A WAYS BACK, SO YOU KNOW, 5 HAS TO DO WHAT WE HAD BEFORE THE MOBILITY PROGRAMS WERE PUT TOGETHER.

SO THIS POLITY DOESN'T MAKE SENSE ANYMORE.

SO THE INTENT IS TO REMOVE IT IN ITS ENTIRETY.

SO SIGNAGE WAS PLACED OUT IN AREAS ALONG THOSE PRIMARY ROADS.

AND MAIL OUTS WENT OUT TO PROPERTY OWNERS.

THERE'S QUITE A NUMBER. AND HERE CAN YOU SEE THE PARCELS I WAS TALKING ABOUT. SO THE ONE THAT IS THE RED HATCH IN THE LEFT CORNER IS THE 18 ACRES JUST RECENTLY ACQUIRED.

THE OTHER 3 AREAS ON THAT CURVE THAT CURB LINE IS THE LOCATION OF THE FUTURE 315 ALIGNMENT. AND SO THE INTENT IS TO AS I SAY SWITCH TO THE NEXT MAP. YOU CAN HERE SEE ON THE LEFT THE EXISTING FUTURE LAND USE AND ON THE RIGHT IS THE PROPOSED SO THEY WANT TO GET ALL THE PURPLE ON THE LEFT SIDE AND THE TAN WHICH IS THE RESIDENTIAL USE ON THE RIGHT SIDE.

>> YOU MEAN CLAY VARY? >> YES.

>> BECAUSE 315 IS NOT MOVING. >> RIGHT.

YES. SO 315 ITSELF IS NOT GOING AWAY.

BEFORE WE HAD CLAY DAIRY THIS CURB WAS CALLED IN THE BOOKS THE

[02:10:01]

315 REALIGNMENT BUT NOW THAT WE HAVE CLAY DAIRY THE NAME HAS CHANGE SO THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT UP.

AND THE ZONING EVERYTHING ON THE ORGANIZE NATURAL PIECE IS A PUD AS I SAID, THE NEW PARCEL IS AGRICULTURE.

THERE WILL BE REZONING COMING TO YOU IN A MONTH OR TWO WHICH WOULD BE FOR THE PROPERTY AS A REPUD AND ALSO INCORPORATE THE CURRENT ADD PARCEL AS PART OF THAT PUD.

SO SEPTEMBER 1ST THE PLANNING COMMISSION HEARD THIS ITEM, THEY VOTED 7-0 TO TREMENDOUS APPROVAL AND ON THE SEPTEMBER 9TH THE SPRING CAC HEARD THE ITEM VOTED 6-0 TO RECOMMEND THE APPROVAL AND STAFF HAS GONE THROUGH THE CRITERIA AND FINDS THEY'VE BEEN MET AND RECOMMENDS THAT THE TRANSMITTAL OF THIS ITEM BE APPROVED UNDERSTANDING THIS IS A LARGE SCALE SO FOR TONIGHT, IT IS A VOTE TO APPROVE TRANSMITTAL TO THE STATE FOR THEM TO REVIEW AND THE STATE AGENCIES TO PROVIDE COMMENTS BACK TO COUNTY AND THEN IT WOULD COME BACK TO YOU AT THE END OF THE, I THINK THE SECOND NOVEMBER MEETING IS WHERE WE HAVE IT TENTATIVELY PLANNED AND I WOULD MARRY UP WITH THAT ZONING CHANGE, AS LONG AS WE GETS ALL OF THE DETAILS WORKED OUT IN TIME.

>> ONE QUESTION FOR DOTY. DOTY, AM I CORRECT IN UNDERSTANDING THIS IS THE ONLY PARCEL CURRENTLY WITH FUTURE

LAND USE OF B.P. IN THE COUNTY? >> YES, IT IS THE ONLY ONE WE

HAVE. >> THIS IS CHANGE EXCLUDES TWO RESIDENTIAL LOTS? IT DOES.

>> WHAT HAPPENS, WE HAVE TO DO A COMP PLAN CHANGE TO INCLUDE THEM

AT SOME FUTURE DATE? >> AT SOME FUTURE DATE, YES, YOU WOULD HAVE TO AMEND THOSE TWO PARCELS FOR FUTURE LAND USE ASSUMING THEY SELL AND THE PROPERTY OWNER ACQUIRES THEM.

ANYONE ELSE? ALL RIGHT.

OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. >> GOOD EVENING.

MILE NAME IS BRUCE REYNOLDS, MY GREEN CODE ADDRESS IS ON FILE.

I SENT EACH OF YOU SOME CONCERNS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR PROHIBITED USE LANGUAGE TO PUT IN THE PUD FOR THIS PROJECT.

SO WHAT ARE MY CONCERNS? VAN TRUST HAS A TRACK RECORD FOR SELLING YOUNG COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES FOR DATA CENTERS VAN TRUST DEVELOPED A $246,000 SQUARE FOOT INDUSTRIAL FACILITY IN NORTH LAS VEGAS AND SOLD IT IN SEPTEMBER 2022 TO NOVA DATA CENTERS FOR ADOPTION INTO A 100 MEGAWATT DATA CENTER.

VAN TRUST ASSEMBLED 400 ACRES FOR THE MUSTANG RIDGE NEAR AUSTIN TEXAS WITH A MAJOR DEVELOPER SECURING ROUGHLY 200 ACHERS IN 2024 TO INITIATE DEVELOPMENT OF A DATA CENTER CAMPUS AND IN 2025 VAN TRUST SOLD ROUGHLY 225 ACRES OF LAND IN NORTH LAS VEGAS TO NOVA AT THAT TIME CENTERS.

THE FOURTH EXAMPLE VAN TRUST DEVELOPED THE NEW CENTURY COMMISSIONERS CENTER IN JOHNSON COUNTY KANSAS THEN IN 2025, LAST YEAR, SIGNED A MAJOR LEASE FOR ITS 756,000 SQUARE FOOD INDUSTRIAL BUILDING WITH DATA CENTER OPERATOR QTS A BLACK STONE COMPANY ONE OF THE LARGEST DATA CENTER PRIVATE INVESTORS IN THE WORLD. THIS BOARD DID THE RIGHT THING IN PASSING A ONE-YEAR MORATORIUM.

THAT ONLY PAUSES SUBMITTAL PROCESSING OR APPROVAL OF PERMITS ZONING AMENDMENTS AND SITE PLANS FOR DATA CENTERS I DON'T BELIEVE THE MORATORIUM LANGUAGE INCLUDES PROHIBITION AGAINST SPECULATIVE BUILDING PROJECTS DESIGNED TO BY AS THE DATA CENTER PAUSES. DATA CENTER DEVELOPERS PAY SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER PRICES PER ACRE AND PER SQUARE FOOT THAN STANDARD LOGISTIC COMPANIES. VAN TRUST CAN SECURE BUILDING PERMITS WITHOUT NEEDING A PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE SPECIFIC TAKEN.

THE APPLICANT SAYS THAT VAN TRUST HAS NO PLANS FOR DATA CENTERS HERE. IF THAT'S TRUE THEY SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT IN PROHIBITED USE LANGUAGE TO THE PUD AND I HAVE THREE REQUESTS AND ONE, LEARN FROM HISTORY.

YOU CAN EASILY VERIFY THE INFORMATION THAT I'M PROVIDING

[02:15:01]

YOU. TWO, CLOSE THE LOOPHOLE.

EASY ENOUGH TO DO IN THE PUD AND PLEA, PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T SIGN ANY NDA'S AND THANK YOU FOR LISTENING.

>> THANK YOU ANYONE ELSE? OH GOOD.

I SHOULD HAVE HAD YOU UP HERE. COME ON UP.

>> IT'S OKAY. I'M GOING TO GET TO THE DATA CENTERS IN A SECOND. I DO HAVE THIS SPEAKER CARD.

HAYDEN PHILLIPS REPRESENTING VAN TRUST REAL ESTATE I DO WANT TO SAY OFF THE BAT THIS IS NOT FOR RESIDENTIAL.

OUR REQUESTS ARE FOR A CLASS A REAL JOB GENERATING LIGHT INDUSTRIAL BUSINESS PARK PARK, VAN TRUST REAL STATE RENOWNED FOR PRODUCING HIGH QUALITY INDUSTRIAL AND OFFICE DEVELOPMENTS AMONG OTHER THINGS. IF YOU'RE UNFAMILIAR, LEASE LOOK AT YOUR WEB SITE AND LET US KNOW.

WE WOULD LOVE TO TAKE YOU. ONE PARK IN NORTH JACKSONVILLE, EXAMPLES OF TYPICAL TENANTS VAN TRUST WOULD BE AMAZON SAM'S CLUB SUBZERO B. JCHLTS'S WHOLESALE SO GOOD TENANTS PROVIDING GOOD JOBS FOR THE COMMUNITY IS WHAT WE ARE ENVISIONING NOTABLY THE PROPERTY ALREADY HAS B-P. LAND USE AND EXISTING PUD FOR HEIGHT INDUSTRIAL BUSINESS PARK TIE USES SO WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR SOMETHING ENTIRELY NEW, ONLY TO MODERN ENTITLEMENTS THAT WERE APPROVED TWO DECADES AGO. I DO WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE CLEAR ON WHERE WE ARE PROCEDURALLY.

THIS IS THE TRANSMITTAL ROUND FOR A LARGE SCALE LAND USE AMENDMENT SO IT WILL THEN GO TO THE STATE AND THEN COME BACK TO YOU WE THINK ON NOVEMBER 24TH FOR THE ADOPTION ROUND WHERE YOU WILL ALSO THE COMPANION PUD. SO, HAPPY TO EXPAND ON THAT IF THAT'S NECESSARY. AS MS. SELIG STATED IN HER VERY THOROUGH GOOD STAFF ANALYSIS THE MAP AMENDMENT CECI ARE SHOWN BEFORE AND AFTER IN THE STAFF REPORT ARE REAL JUST JUST IS A CLEAN UP NECESSITY RESULTING FROM THE NEW LOCATION OF THE CLAY DAIRY PARKWAY. IT MADE SENSE AT ONE TIME.

THE CONFIGURATION OF OR ASU BP AND NOW DON'T SO IT WOULD BE CLEANER TO HAVE RSV ONLY ON THE CLAIRE DAIRY AND B.P. ON THE WEST SIDE, AND THE OUT PARCEL THAT YOU SAW, WHICH IS THE ONLY PART OF THIS LAND USE AMENDMENT WHICH IS COURAGELY AGRICULTURE, AG IS COMPLETELY OVERHEADED BY B.P. AND THE EXISTING PUD SO THAT PERSON DECIDE TO SELL TO US SO I THINK THAT SOMEONE PROBABLY NOT GOING TO RUFFLE ANY FEATHERS.

IT MAKES SENSE. THE B.P. TEXT AMENDMENT IS AND SO THE FIRST, TWO DIFFERENT POLICIES IN THE SETTLEMENT FIRST IS 1.4.1 SUBSECTION 14 THE GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF B.P. SO WE ARE BASICALLY JUST DELETING SOME THINGS THAT WE THINK AND I THINK STAFF AGREES JUST DON'T REALLY BELONG HERE.

WE ARE GOING TO ADDRESS THEM IN THE PUD.

THEY'RE FOR SORT OF ZONING TYPE THINGS AND A FEW OTHER TWEAKS TO ACCOMMODATE WHAT IS NEEDED AND I'M HAPPY TO EXPAND ON THAT IF YOU WOULD LIKE. THIS IS THE ONLY B.P. IN THE COUNTY. THIS IS THE ONLY PROPERTY THAT WILL BE IMPACTED AND SO, I WILL MOVE ON TO DATA CENTERS.

PLANLY SPEAKING REQUEST THAT WE HAVE BEFORE YOU DO NOT INCLUDE A DATA CENTER. I DON'T DOUBT THAT VAN TRUST HAS SOLD TO DATA CENTER USES IN LAS VEGAS OR AUSTIN OR KANSAS.

BUT I CAN'T SPEAK TO THAT NOW. THEY DO ALL TYPES OF THINGS FROM OFFICE TO DOES TERRELL TO MULTI-FAMILY BUT UNDER YOUR MORATORIUM WHICH IS ALREADY IN PLACE, YOU CAN'T APPROVE A DATA CENTER ANYWAY. SO THE PURPOSE OF THE MORATORIUM IS TO GIVE YOUR COUNTY TIME TO STUDY EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS USE, AND CREATE APPROPRIATE COUNTYWIDE REGULATIONS, WHICH WE AGREE WILL APPLY TO THIS PROPERTY.

SO IN OTHER WORDS, WE ARE NOT PLANNING TO ASSERT AT LATER POINT THAT THIS COMP PLAN AMENDMENT OR THE PUD SOMEHOW VESTED US FROM WHATEVER NEW RULES YOU PUT IN PLACE.

SO, DATA CENTER IS NOT IN THE PLANS.

AND IT NEVER WILL BE. HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

[02:20:07]

>> ALL RIGHT. >> MADAM CHAIR I JUST HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE ATTORNEY. DO WE, COURTNEY CAN WE LEGALLY PUT THAT INTO THE TRANSMITTAL TO NOT ALLOW A DATA CENTER RIGHT

NOW? >> WELL I THINK EVEN AS SUGGESTED BY MR. REYNOLDS IS MORE APPROPRIATE TO PUT IT IN THE PUD BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY PRECLUDING INTO

THIS IS THE TRANSMITTAL. >> WELL THIS THE COMP PLAN CHANGE AND PLAN CHANGE WILL COME BACK -- I'M SORRY I NEED TO

FINISH WITH THE PUBLIC HEARING. >> HELLO.

MY NAME IS HELENA CORMIER. THIS PROJECT I SAW ONE OF THE DRC'S AND ONE THING GOT MY ATTENTION THIS WAS DESIGNED BACK IN 2005-2006 AND THIS PLAN WAS PUT OUT THERE AND I STRUGGLE AS A TAX PAYING RESIDENTS SEEING WHEN THESE PLANS LARGE LOTS GETS THE ENTITLEMENTS THEY'VE GET AND THEY'VE BEEN PLANNED THIS WAY BUT YET THEN THEY GET THAT TEMPER TAX CUT SO YOU'VE GOT LANDS THAT'S WORTH MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BECAUSE OF THOSE ENTITLE WILLMENTS BUT THEY DON'T PAY AS MUCH ON THE TAXES BECAUSE OF THAT SO I WAS REALLY SURPRISED WHEN THERE WAS SOME CHANGES OF THIS AREA AND THE LAND, AND I'M TRYING TO CHANGE IT.

I GET WHY THEY'RE DOING IT I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THAT THE I DO HOPE AND PRAY THAT THE LADY THAT SOLD THE 18 ACRES BECAUSE THAT'S NOT UPDATED YET, SO IT'S STILL SHOWING IF IT'S OWNED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER, THAT SOLD HER LAND IS PROBABLY AGRICULTURAL PRICE. I HOPE SHE GOT PAID WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN PAID ONCE THE REZONING HAPPENS BECAUSE HER LAND IS WORTH A LOT MORE VALUE SO IT'S TAKING A LOT OF THINGS INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN WE DO, WHEN YOU ALL APPROVE A PUD IF THERE'S A WAY TO TAKE OUT THAT TAX BREAK THEY GET BECAUSE THEY GET THE ENTITLEMENTS IT WOULD HELP YOU ALL GET THE REVENUE YOU MAY NEED BECAUSE THIS LAND WORTH $18 MILLION BUT TAXED ON $179,000 ACCORDING TO THE PROPERTY APPRAISERS OFFICE.

IT'S DISHEARTENING THAT THINGS LIKE THIS CAN BE DONE IN A COUNTY AND PEOPLE KNOW HOW TO AVOID THE SYSTEM OR HOW TO USE TO IT THEIR FULLEST AND HAVE THE TAX BREAKS KNOW HOW TO DO IT BUT ULTIMATELY IT COSTS US SO WHEN YOU ALL DO APPROVAL THINGS IF THERE'SNESS LEGALLY YOU ALL CAN DO TO NOT ALLOW THE TEXAS TEMPER YOU INCENTIVES THAT THEY'RE ALLOWED ONCE IENTS REZONED THEY'VE GOT THE ZONING A THEY'VE GOT THOSE DIFFERENT LAND VALUES.

SO THANK YOU AND I HOPE THAT IT MAKES SENSE.

>> THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE?

>> YOU CAN TURN YOUR CARDS ON IN.

OKAY. I THINK.

>> MY NAME IS JOSEPH CUNNINGHAM AND I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT IT SEEMS TO ME THAT WE HAVE IN ORDER TO GET BUSINESSES AND PEOPLE TO COME TO THIS COUNTY WE'VE MADE THE PRICE OF DOING BUSINESS ALMOST FREE AND WE HAVE MADE IT SO AFFORDABLE THEY CAN'T SAY NO AND BUDGET SHORTFALL WE PUT IT ON THE TAXPAYERS AND I KNOW LOOKING AT PUBLIC RECORDS WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE SOCCER PARK ERICIER AND I DID EMAIL COMMISSIONER CONDON ABOUT THAT, THANKS FOR ANSWERING QUESTIONS BUT EXAMPLE THIS KIND OF STUFF THE CLAY COUNTY SOCCER CLUB ON CONEY ISLAND AND ARE YOU GUYS AWARE WHAT THEY PAY EACH YEAR TO USE THAT FACILITY? ONE DOLLAR. IT IS MORE EXPENSIVE TO BUY A COKE OUT OF A VENDING MACHINE THAN TO HAVE ENTIRE COUNTY PARK AVAILABLE FOR YOUR USE. SO, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT'S SO DIFFICULT ABOUT PUTTING IN SOME GUIDELINES AND RULES AND SAYING, NO WE ARE NOT GIVING YOU TAX BREAKS.

NO, THIS IS WHAT IT COSTS. YOU'RE GOING TO BUILD THE ROAD.

WANT TO DO THIS YOU'RE GOING TO DO THIS.

BUT INSTEAD WE BEND AND TWIST THINGS AND WE GET THIS BIG MESS AND BUDGET SHORTFALL AND WE DO THINGS LIKE LAST MONTH HAND NOW WE HAVE A STORM WATER TAX. SO LET'S START MAKING THE PRICE OF BUSINESS IN CLAY COUNTY WHAT IT IS SHOULD BE AND MAKING PEOPLE PAY TO DO THEIR BUSINESS HERE INSTEAD OF GIVING THINGS AWAY IN HOPES MAYBE WE DON'T HAVE TO PUT IT ON TAXPAYERS LATER ON. THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. >> ANYONE ELSE?

[02:25:01]

CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING. BRING IT BACK TO THE BOARD.

>> I THINK I WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS MS. CORMIER'S STATEMENT.

WE DON'T PAY TAXES BASED ON ZONING.

WE PAY TAXES BASE ON WHAT THE PROPERTY APPRAISERS SO IF YOU GET CULTURAL EX-ELSE IT'S HARD TO I REPRESENT THE RURAL AREA OF THE COUNTY AND LEGITIMATE FARMS THAT CAN'T GET THAT BECAUSE IT'S A GREEN BELT CERTIFICATION AND IT'S GIVEN BY THE PROPERTY APPRAISER. SO, THE VALUE THAT THIS LAND HAS BEEN TAXED AT DOESN'T ACTUALLY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THEIR SOAK OR ANYTHING FROM 2006. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE PROPERTY APPRAISER AND SO, I THINK THAT'S AN APPROPRIATE QUESTION TO TAKE UP WIT HIM ON HIS OFFICE AND HOW THEY VALUE PROPERTIES AND WE ARE FORTUNATE IN CLAY COUNTY OUR PROPERTY APPRAISER HAS BEEN WITH THE PROPERTY APPRAISER'S OFFICE I THINK CLOSE TO 30 YEARS AND SO HE HAS A LOT OF GREAT EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE.

SO I THINK THAT PASS BOARDS WOULD LOVE TO HAVE HAD THAT REVENUE. I THINK THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO HAVE SOME GOOD JOBS, GOOD PAYING JOBS THE KIND OF BUSINESSES THAT THAT ARE TALKED ABOUT HERE.

I'VE WORKED IN BUSINESS PARKS SIMILAR TO THIS THROUGHOUT MY CAREER. AND THEY'RE REALLY GAME CHANGERS FOR THE COMMUNITY, YOU KNOW, AND COMMISSIONER BURKE AND RENNINGER AND I WERE ELECTED JUST OVER 5 YEARS XIA AND STARTED SERVING AND WE WERE TOLD AT SOME OF THE MEETING THAT 60 PERCENT OF RESIDENTS LEAVE CLAY COUNTY FOR WORK.

I WENT TO THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT LUNCHEON LAST MONTH AND ANDRÉ WALL AS SPOKE AND SAID 75 PERCENT OF THE COUNTY NOW LEAVES FOR WORK, LEAVES THE COUNTY FOR WORK.

SO WE OBVIOUSLY KNOW THAT THERE'S A LOT OF RESIDENTIAL IN THIS AREA. I SPECIFICALLY HAVE MADE NO SECRET ABOUT I DON'T WANT MORE RESIDENTIAL IN THIS AREA OR I DON'T THINK WE REALLY NEED ANY MORE RESIDENTIAL ENTITLED ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTY RIGHT NOW AND SO, I WELCOME, I THINK THAT IT'S INTERESTING TO SEE? OF THE REQUIREMENTS THAT ARE IN THE PAST PUD THAT WILL OBVIOUSLY COME TO US FOR CHANGES BUT SOME OF THEM ARE IN THE TEXT AMENDMENT FOR.

THIS SOME THINGS INTRUIGING TO ME WAS THAT IT COULD NOT HAVE DOCKS GOING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BUILDING.

WELL, IF YOU WORK IN LOGISTICS AND YOU KNOW THAT INCOMING AND OUT GOING REALLY SHOULDN'T BE IN THE SAME PLACE AND YOU HAVE INCOMING AND ESPECIALLY I WORK IN A REGULATED INDUSTRY IN MEDICAL DEVICES AND THERE'S FDA RIRLTS FOR INSPECTIONS ON INCOMING MATERIALS YOU WANTS THOSE THINGS SIG GAITD.

YOU CONTINUE WANT THE POTENTIAL FOR YOU DON'T WANT OUT GOING SO I THOUGHT THAT WAS INTERESTING THAT THE BUILDINGS HAD TO BE MULTI-TENANT. THERE'S NO REASON THAT LIKE SO IF YOU WOULD BE SAYING, WALMART COULDN'T HAVE A DISTRIBUTION CENTER IN THIS PARK BECAUSE IT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE WALMART AND WHO? YOU KNOW OR YOU BUILD A BUILDING THAT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. IT'S INTRUIGING TO ME WHY THEY PUT THAT SUFFICIENT IN THERE BUT I THINK IT MAKES SENSE.

I APPRECIATE MR. REYNOLDS YOUR EMAIL AND YOUR COMMENTS TONIGHT.

I THINK THAT'S GOING TO BE EASY FOR TO US PUT IN THE PUD AND BECAUSE THIS IS THE PARCEL WITH THIS ZONING MAKES IT EASY FOR US TO STAY WHEN WE DO THAT LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE UPDATED TO SEE NO DATA SENSE TERMS IN HERE. I DON'T WANT TO SEE DATA CENTERS BECAUSE I WANT JOBS IN HERE. BUT AT ANY RATE WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT MORE WHEN THE PUD KPOLS BACK TO US BUT I THINK THAT THIS HAS BEEN THOUGHTFUL AND I APPRECIATE THE CARE THAT HAS BEEN TAKEN. I ALSO WILL SAY THAT MET WITH THE APPLICANT AND I KNOW THAT THEY WENT DOOR TO DOOR, BLESS YOU, THEY WENT DOOR TO DOOR WITH ALL THE NEIGHBORS.

>> AND ALSO GAVE A GREATER BUFFER.

>> YES AND ALSO HAD A TOWN HALL MEETING RIGHT ACROSS AT THE JESSE GODBOLT CENTER SO THEY'VE DONE A LOT TO TALK WITH THE PUBLIC AND CLEARLY WE HAVEN'T HAD THAT GREAT OPPOSITION AND I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS THAT WERE SAID.

[02:30:04]

SO I THINK IT'S THOUGHTFUL AND GOOD AND AGAIN, THIS WAS INTENDED TO BE THIS. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THE PUD SAID IN 2006 IRONICALLY ENOUGH PUD'S HAVE EXPIRATION DATE BUT THE STATE HAD REQUIRED THAT THIS PUD GET AN EXOPERATION GATE FROM THE FIRST COAST EXPRESSWAY FINISHING SO THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE SAME

INTEREST. >> [INDISTINCT].

>> YES, VERY INTERESTING. >> COUPLE OF COMMENTS HAND QUESTION FOR COURTNEY. MR. CUNNINGHAM I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS AND AGREE IN A LOT ONE ABOUT CLAY COUNTY SOCCER CLUB THAT PARK IS OVER A HUNDRED ACRES.

THE COUNTY DOES NOT PAY TO MOW IT, DOES NOT PAY TO SPRAY IT.

IN MY FULL-TIME JOB, I'VE BEEN AN ATHLETIC DIRECTOR FOR 12 YEARS AND MY CURRENT SCHOOL WE MAINTAIN TWO FULL SIDES FOOTBALL AND SOFTBALL FIELDS WE CONTRACT TO MOW AND SPRAY ABOUT $75,000 A YEAR SO THAT ONE DOLLAR LEASE TO THE PRIVATE NON-FOR PROFIT IS SAVING THE COUNTY A HUNDRED ACRES SPRAYING AND MOWING ON TOP OF THEY MAINTAIN THE BATHROOMS WHICH HELPS US MILE QUESTION TO THE COUNTY ATTORNEY IS WHAT, HOW WOULD IT WORK IF THE COUNTY ELIMINATED CREDITS? IS THERE ANY STAT STATUTE THAT SAYS YOU HAVE TO HAVE CREDITS? HOW DOES THAT WORK?

>> 0 MOBILITY FEE CREDITS? >> SURE.

>> WE COULD JUST NOT PROVIDE FOR THAT THE YOU HAVE TO HONOR THE ONES THAT YOU HAD ALREADY HAVE BUT MOVING FORWARD IF YOU JUST DETERMINE YOU WERE NO LONGER GOING TAKEOVER MOBILITY FOR OR IMPACT CREDITS THAT'S A CATCH 22 BECAUSE YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO

COLLECT THEM. >> WHICH PREVIOUS COMMISSIONS DID. THEY ELIMINATED IMPACT FEES AND

WE ARE PAYING FOR THAT NOW. >> OF COURSE AND I'M NOT SAYING ELIMINATE IMPACT MOBILITY FEES. I'VE BEEN VERY CLEAR AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN BECAUSE IT'S FOR FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW I WANT TO MAXIMIZE IMPACT MOBILITY FEES AND PEOPLE HERE TONIGHT YOU NEED TO REACH OUT TO YOUR STATE LEGISLATORS.

THERE'S A STATE LAW PASSED THAT HITS IT IS THIS BOARD TO I AM BACK MOBILITY FEES TO 50PERCENT OF WHAT THEY ALREADY SO WE TALKED ABOUT IMPACT MOBILITY FEES FOR A GAS STATION IN CLAY COUNTY THE FEE IS ABOUT $13,000 FOR A GAS STATION IN NASSAU COUNTY THE MOBILITY FEE IS $650,000 AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN THAT MAKES ME ABSOLUTELY SICK, I WANT OUR STATE LEGISLATURE TO WORK WITH US MERE IN CLAY COUNTY TO FIX SOMETHING THAT NONE OF US WERE AROUND WHEN IT WAS PUT INTO PLACE BUT TO ELIMINATE HAVING THOSE TYPES OF INCREASES AND I THINK NONE OF US WANT TO DO THAT EVER AGAIN THAT'S WHAT HEIGHTS GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE IS THE CLAY COUNTY HAS TO START CHARGING FAIR MARKET VALUE BUT OUR HANDS ARE TIED BY STATE LAW AND THAT'S WHERE WE GOT TO WORK TOGETHER WITH THEM. SO I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT REMOVING THE FEES. THE CREDITS.

>> THERE'S ROADS LIKE RICHARD EXPLAINED THAT ARE WITHIN OUR PLANNING NETWORK THAT WOULD THE BE BUILT.

>> SURE AND I THINK FOR ME I WANT TO DO MORE RESEARCH ON THAT AS AS TO PROS AND CONS, AS I SPLAINDZ WE ARE GETTING A ROAD WE DON'T HAVE TO PAY FORWARD AND CRITICS MIGHT SAY THEN BUILD IT ANYWAY. WE WILL SEE.

>> IF YOU COLLECTED THE CREDIT, IF YOU COLLECTED THE FEE YOU HAVE TO USE IT RIGHT ON CERTAIN, YES, OR GIVE IT BACK.

WITHIN EIGHT YEARS AND THE PROBLEM THAT YOU RUN INTO IS A LOT OF TIMES YOU DON'T COLLECT ENOUGH FEES WITHIN THAT EIGHT YEARS TO BE ABLE TO PAVE THE ROAD THAT'S $14 MILLION.

>> SURE. >> WELL, AND ONE THING WE ALL KNOW DEFINITELY TRUE WITH THE CURRENT LAW AND WHERE WE CURRENTLY ARE, WE WILL NEVER GET THERE.

THROUGH IMPACT MOBILITY FEES. >> WHAT I HAVE TO SAY BECAUSE OF

THE CAP. >> BECAUSE OF THE CAP YEAH.

>> WHAT I HAVE TO SAY IS YOUR DISTRICT IS A LOT DIFFERENT THAN MINE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE YOURS IS BUILT OUT.

YOU HAVE ALL THE VEENSZ, YOU HAVE THE ROADS, YOU HAVE EVERYTHING. I HAVE TONS OF HOUSES COMING AND THOSE PEOPLE THOSE PEOPLE NEED THE ROADS ALSO.

NOW IT'S HERE. >> WE ARE IN LOCK STEP.

I WANT THOSE PEOPLE TO HAVE THAT TOO BUT I DON'T WANT CURRENT

DAYERS TO PAY FOR IT. >> RIGHT BUT IF WE CAN'T GET THE ROADS WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO? SO THEY SAY LIKE HELENA.

[02:35:03]

>> IT CHANGED THE TRANSMITTAL TO ADD IN NO CREDITS.

>> NO, I'M JUST BRINGING IT UP. HE JUST MADE A GOOD POINT AND I THINK IT'S SOMETHING THAT YEAH, I AGREE WITH YOU SIR THE FREE RIDE IS OVER. IT'S TOTALLY OVER.

I'VE HAD MANY TALKS WITH STAFF ABOUT THAT.

BUT, IT'S, WHAT I'M SAYING IS WE NEED YOUR HELP GETTING INVOLVED AND SAY HEY WE GOT TO WRITE THIS IN CLAY COUNTY SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED IN 2008 WHEN THE COMMISSION BACK THEN WAIVED MOBILITY FEES BECAUSE OF THE HOUSE CRISIS WE ARE DOING EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN WITH THE CURRENT STATE OF AFFAIRS THAT WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN. I'LL TALK TO YOU MORE ABOUT IT COURTNEY BUT I AGREE THERE'S PROS AND CONS TO THE FEES A CREDITS BUT WE GOT TO CONTINUE TO LOOK TO FIND WAYS FOR THAT.

>> ALL RIGHT WHERE WERE WE? I'M LOST.

SO, WE HAD THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVAL.

TRANSMITTAL. >> WE NEED A MOTION.

>> MOVED APPROVAL. >> YOU DID.

>> I'LL SECOND THE MOTION. >> MOTION AND SECOND, THOSE IN FAVOR AYE. ANY OPPOSED.

[26. Final Public Hearing to consider adoption of ZON 26-0012 (B.Carson)This application is a land development code text amendment to Article III to add the Branan Field Institutional (BF INST) district.]

PASSES 5-0, TRANSMITTAL. WITH THAT, .

>> THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR. THIS IS THE SECOND AND FINAL HEARING FOR ZONE 2612 CLASS CODE CHANGE TO ADD LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE POLESI FOR THE B.F. INSTITUTIONAL LAND USE YOU CREATED A COUPLE MONTHS BANK. THE FIRST PUBLIC HEARING WAS ON THE EIGHTH. SO, AGAIN THESE ARE LAND USE OR THE PERMITTED USES THAT WOULD BE ALLOWED BY RIGHT AND THE INTENSITY WAS ESTABLISHED AT RATIO OF 50 PERCENT.

AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING AS WELL AS DISCUSSION AT YOUR FIRST PUBLIC HEARING THERE WAS INTEREST IN ALLOWING THE SMALLER CHURCHES WOULD IMAGINE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF 10,000 FEET TO ALLOW THEM TO HAVE DAY CARE CENTER AS ANCILLARY USE AND THEY'RE LIMITED INTO SIZE BECAUSE THEY'RE ALLOWED ON A LOCAL ROAD IF YOU'RE ARTERIAL YOU HAVE THAT DIFFERENT STANDARD 10,000 UP TO 40,000 SQUARE FEET WITH ADDITIONAL FOUR CLASSROOMS BUT FOR THE LOCAL THIS 10,000 WOULD HAVE TO INCLUDE CHURCH AND THE FACILITIES INCLUDING THE DAY CARE.

SO WE NEED THAT CHANGE AND THAT'S THE ONLY CHANGE WE HAVE MADE SINCE THEN. AND AGAIN, THIS POLICY INCLUDES HEIGHT LIMITATIONS, SIDEWALK PARKING STANDARDS ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS BECAUSE IT'S IN BRANDON FIELD SO THERE'S HIGHER LEVEL OF ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW. IF IT'S JAYS ADJACENT TO ACTIVITY OR NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER IT'S REQUIRED TO HAVE ARCHITECTURE SIMILAR TO THOSE AREAS.

THERE'S ROOF LINE PITCH AND LIGHTING STANDARDS TO INSURE THAT TRESPASS DOES NOT OCCUR. THE OAKLEY -- STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?

>> ANY QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT.

I'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

BRING BACK TO BOARD FOR MOTION. >> I'LL PROVE APPROVAL OF ZONING

IT'S IN MY DISTRICT. WHAT IS THAT C.D. DEALER WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO WITH THAT PROPERTY? THEY CAN JUST DONATE IT FOR THE TRAIL.

OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. >> AGAIN, HELENA CORMIER.

I DID LOOK AT THIS ON THE PROPERTY APPRAISER'S OFFICE KNOWING IT WAS CDD MAKING SURE THEY DON'T INADVERTANTLY SELL OFF LAND THAT BLOCKS THEIR AREA IF THERE MIGHT HAVE BUENA PARK IN THAT AREA OR THINGS LIKE THAT SO I DON'T KNOW THEIR PUD BUT THERE WAS A BIG SPACE THAT MAY HAVE BEEN ONE OF THEIR PARKS BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THEY STILL HAVE ACCESS THROUGH A DIFFERENT MEANS BUT THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WHEN THE COMMUNITY COMMUNITIES DO HAVE CERTAIN LAND AND GREEN SPACE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE PART OF THEIR GREEN SPACE OR POCKETS PARK OR DIFFERENT THINGS YOU DON'T INADVERTANTLY PURCHASE SOMETHING AND RESIDENTS ARE BLOKDZ BY ACCESS SO PLEASE AS YOU ALL ARE DOING THIS AND VALLEY WAITING DIFFERENT LAND ACQUISITIONS YOU DON'T CUT OFF THE RESIDENTS. SO THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE.

CLOSE TO PUBLIC HEARING BRING BACK TO BOARD.

>> IN MY DISTRICT DOESN'T CUT THEM OFF.

THERE IS A PARK. THE WAY THAT THIS, THIS SUBDIVISION WASN'T A CDD ORIGINALLY AND IT AZALEA RIDGE AND THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPER WENT BURBANK ERUPT IN 2000 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND IT WAS BOUGHT SO IT'S DIVIDED.

THE BIG PART OF IS ON THE EAST SIDE OF LONG BAY AND THIS IS THE WEST SIDE AND YOU HAVE ONE ENTRANCE IN AND IT KINDS OF MAKES A J AND THERE IS A PARK AT TENDS OF THE JAY AND A PLAY GROUND SO THIS IS LIKE USE LESS LAND ALONG THE ROLLED.

IT'S JUST A BIGGER GREEN BUFFER. AND SO IT MAKES SENSE THAT WE ARE GOING TO PUT THE TRAIL THERE.

IT JUST A NOISE ME. I KNOW IT'S $7,000 BUT IT A NOISE ME WE HAVE TO PAY FOR THE LAND BUT LIKE I SAID THIS IS MY ONLY CDD AND YOU ALL KNOW THEY'VE HAD THEIR ISSUES ANYWAY.
