   22:17P forty three, we have proof of publication in the Tampa Bay Times January first, twenty twenty-five, and January eighth, twenty twenty-five.

   Joanne Rivita

   22:31Good afternoon. Joanne Ravita Real Property Division. The Real Property team has received a petition to vacate a portion of a platted ingress-egress easement, a utility easement, and the rear lot lines of lots 41 and 42 of Shooting Star Court by Sunfield Homes and Orsi Development. The purpose of the vacation is to enable the petitioners to create buildable lots for future residential construction. There were no objections to this petition and the team recommends approval.

   StarkeyChair

   23:01Okay, this is my district. This actually no one spoke to me about this one. Um what is the land behind there? It's owned by both developers.

   Joanne Rivita

   23:12Well

   StarkeyChair

   23:12that both of those developers, same family. But what what

   Joanne Rivita

   23:15is

   StarkeyChair

   23:15it?

   Joanne Rivita

   23:16Um it's my understanding is that it is just currently vacant land that they were going to develop. But they realized that they could not develop it, so they wanted to remove the ingress egress easement so that they could develop the two residential lots in the front.

   StarkeyChair

   23:31Well um I'm just wondering is that is that land can you pull up the map? Yes. Is that is there any up is there any value to keep access to that land? Could it become a park or s anything like that?

   Joanne Rivita

   23:45I'm not sure if you're a person of that. I'm hoping that there might be representatives of the easy.

   StarkeyChair

   23:50Just curious. Yeah. I'm looking at the map, but it's not a little bit more than a little bit. My It's not so hot here. My pap.

   StarkeyChair

   23:59Name and address for the record, please.

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   24:00Patricia Buck. Uh Orsi Development, Sunfield Homes, 9040, Trifon. Boulevard A one oh four, Trinity. And I have been sworn in.

   StarkeyChair

   24:10Thank you.

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   24:11Um the land in originally when we platted this in 2002, we retained the tract in the back for future development. That's what it shows on the plat. I have um a bigger drawing if that helps any. Um so we still own that parcel and we also own parcels or a lot. Uh forty-one and forty-two. Originally we tried to do some development plans and they were opposed not only by the HOA but also by the

   24:41county. So at this point,

   StarkeyChair

   24:43on those two lots? How can they No not on the lots,

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   24:45on

   StarkeyChair

   24:46the land in the back. And can we see a different view of this so we can get the context of what's around

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   24:50it?

   24:55Um there's anything. I it's a drawing that if you look at the ping area from

   StarkeyChair

   25:03Can you switch that are you switching that to Google Earth or or Pasco Mapper or something? Probably Pasco Mapper is better. And I know that uh is this the land that you approached us to maybe see if we would could get it along the river? Yeah. Yeah.

   25:20He's not here, is he?

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   25:27So if you if you look at the pink area, that's the um track 20. That was the future development tract. And what we've done is we've basically split it in half and attached it to lot 41 and lot 42. So Our goal is to sell those two platted lots, but right now the easement between the lots, instead of having a s a seven and a half foot side yard setback, you have a 17 and a half. So with a pie

   25:58lot you've got almost no building pad. Yeah. So because we can't use the back, all we're trying to do is make the units that are there more buildable. Oh that's a good thing. anymore.

   StarkeyChair

   26:11All right. So that this doesn't back up to the This is in a different place than I was thinking. Um can you can you zoom out? So there's no upland. No, it's also

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   26:23it's all in the floodplain. Yeah. All right. And the reason why I showed you the green area, um, because as you can see, each of those green tracks are HOA tracks, and the green going between the lots is the access to the green tracks as platted. So this particular easement doesn't have anything to do with the HOA. It was something that we were required to do. During Plat in order to have access, ingress, egress, and utilities for the future development, which

   26:53as I said is no longer happening.

   StarkeyChair

   26:56There was a time when um I know when this used to be our property. Yes. There there was a hope that somewhere this would connect back to Starkey Boulevard instead of everyone going up, you You know, there's only one one exit. Although I I do hope to connect Amazon and Anaconda. David Engel, that's the piece I was showing you right there? There's a little spite strip there from uh left over that now I think we might own it now and we can do that connection. Um So

   27:26I you know there's no useful land behind there and no reason to not approve this. I would ex entertain a motionless question? Yeah.

   Oakley

   27:36Yeah, just a question. Um so the area that's marked pink on I guess those are lots. You're not going to build on those two lots?

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   27:45No.

   27:48We still own those.

   Oakley

   27:50Right.

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   27:50And the pink tract is now basically divided in half. Half of it goes with 41 and half of it goes with 42. You you can't see that on there. But you can see that right where the easement is, if you continue to draw the line straight where it hits the top of the page, that's pretty much where it's at.

   Oakley

   28:10So

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   28:11So the easement's no longer needed.

   Oakley

   28:14Okay. I thought you said something about electric and Sewer and all hookup, is that a hookup? Can that be done with that project for this property here?

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   28:24Um the water and sewer were built with the original project. They're at the front lot line in the utility easement for forty one and forty two. There's two stub outs, one for each lot.

   Oakley

   28:34Yeah. So you'll connect those for these lots behind?

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   28:39Well there is no lot in behind. It's just the land behind will go with the lot in the front.

   StarkeyChair

   28:46So um what's been ha have people been trespassing back there on your property? 'Cause I see

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   28:52What do you

   StarkeyChair

   28:52think? Oh yeah. I bet I could see those little guys on those motorcycles back there if I look real close that

   Unidentified speakerVoice A

   28:59Well and uh this will help that. Once we get the two lots in the front with real houses built there and somebody owns the land land in the back, uh you won't have that.

   Oakley

   29:07Yeah. Basically that part in the pink Not Buildable.

   29:15I'm not talking about the lots. There's a little bit of high

   StarkeyChair

   29:17and dry, but it's gonna go with the lots. Right. So they'll have a

   Oakley

   29:22but they won't build back there.

   StarkeyChair

   29:23They can build an ABU back there. They can build residential

   Oakley

   29:26back there.

   StarkeyChair

   29:26Correct. They can put an A B U back there.

   Oakley

   29:28Yeah. That's pretty good for those lots too.

   StarkeyChair

   29:32Yeah. We have some lots like that in Aristida that happened to go way back um just because of the way the layout was. So um

   Oakley

   29:40Yeah, that's good.

   StarkeyChair

   29:42Okay, is there anyone else in the public that wishes to speak to this?

   Oakley

   29:50Thank you, second. All in favor?

   StarkeyChair

   29:52Aye. Opposed. Okay. Thank you. Okay.
