    Planning and Development staff

    Good afternoon, William from Million Planning Development Economic Growth. This is a zoning amendment, PDE 257834, Harvest Hills West V O P H M P D in the name of Galvin Land Services, a rezoning request from AC Agricultural to MPD Master Plan United Development District.

    This proposal is to allow for the maximum development of 279 dwelling units on approximately 100 acres at the intersection of Prospect and Work Road.

    This project is also within the villages of Pasadena Hills, located within Village F. A rough location here indicated by the star. Here is an uh aerial view showing the uh the current alignment of Prospect Road and the ro roundabout there at Murata Boulevard and Curley.

    This is the master plan for the village, showing neighborhood general for this area.

    as well as the village F Master Plan, which is majority neighborhood edge. A little bit lower density on the southern portion of the site, bifurcated by Prospect Road. This is the master plan for this MPUD, showing the new alignment of Prospect Road that will be built by this MPUD, connecting into the now what will be the double roundabout at Mara and Curley.

    showing those different densities, of course more dense to the north, less density to the south. However, as we'll see here, The applicants not proposing to develop the southern portion. So it will be uh kept as wetlands and conservation. And the the majority of that density will be used on the northern portion. These are rear loaded townhomes.

    StarkeyChair

    With possible AD use.

    Planning and Development staff

    Yes, ma'am, and they are limited at nine hundred square feet per the conditions of approval.

    StarkeyChair

    Perfect.

    Planning and Development staff

    Just to th just to throw a wrench in there.

    StarkeyChair

    Is that a double uh is that a double roundabout?

    Planning and Development staff

    It is. It's a figure eight roundabout.

    StarkeyChair

    Wow.

    Planning and Development staff

    Don't ask me about that one, but Ted was Ted was kind enough to design that for us and says it's safe enough so we're excited about it.

    S safe enough, right? There's the caveat. No. There is one variation request from this uh MPD from 901611 street design and dedication requirements. They're not proposing an interconnect Directly to the north or directly to the south. However, the Northern Interconnect is taken care of with this new alignment of Prospect Road. the the citizens that live in this development will be able to go north on Curly through that roundabout instead of connecting to there's an existing

    dirt road along the northern boundary called Leonard, which is not in the Master Roadway Plan, and instead of impacting those residents that use it to privately access some single family residential the the residents will be accessing curly via the new alignment and no interconnect to the to the south because the applicant doesn't intend to develop the south. per this plan they wouldn't be able to unless they come in for a modification, so no southern access is uh required here. However, in the future residents would be able to access south both on Curley and

    on Wort Wort Road, which is a vision road there on the eastern boundary.

    MarianoVice Chair

    Mm-hmm. Yeah. So I I'm gonna say I I just came from development over off C Colony Roadlook and the connection. And there's a development to the side of it, almost almost like this here. And what we did was we put a Straight road going through to the other development. Now keep in mind the development drops down to the back. Is there about fairwinds? Uh or what's that what's that called? It's a different name. Bright Bright Brighton maybe? It's on the uh Uh eastern side.

    And it's a little dip in i in the road behind the lots that are there that eventually is designed to though. To make a cut there. No, Work Road, if anybody's been down there, the connection point to that is going to be A long time coming. The connection in the road to this one here could be a long time coming. But if I can get a north south connection in skipping a double right rotary And eventually when that thing goes out fifty years later, so be it. I mean I think you should put a T there, put a fence there. But at least have

    that access we can get out there. When it you know, it could it might be fifty years down the road, but

    StarkeyChair

    No

    MarianoVice Chair

    the north, yes.

    StarkeyChair

    Well it does look like There there is a T in the neighborhood. That could maybe eventually one day go through.

    Planning and Development staff

    So are you talking about the existing Linux road intersection with the current alignment of prospect, if I'm if I'm hearing you correctly?

    MarianoVice Chair

    To the left side of the picture we have the there's two green areas in it, two big s big rectangles. So the one to the left side of the screen going straight up as a road there.

    Planning and Development staff

    Yes sir, that that T intersection will be left there and Lennard will be untouched.

    MarianoVice Chair

    But there's no tea, there's it's yellow there. I like it.

    Planning and Development staff

    Th this is a a current T intersection. It's tough to see with this aerial, but Leonard Road does travel along here to this T intersection where you can go up north to Uh current curly and then accesses these these homes down here. It'll it'll just be left untouched in its current condition just because it's not on the master roadway plan for the villages of Pascoena Hills.

    MarianoVice Chair

    Uh but y it's you just don't listen, uh I don't think you get my point. The road that's above above it, there's no T connecting to there, at least that I can see.

    StarkeyChair

    You talk about Leonard?

    MarianoVice Chair

    Letter, I guess. There's no there's no north south connection potential for Leonard down the road.

    There there's no road connection in the new development to go in up north south.

    Mike Carballa

    It runs off the screen. That's the T interception track.

    Joel

    I think he's talking about the right-of-way.

    StarkeyChair

    I'm gonna have a different question. It has to be with a multi use path.

    Joel

    I'm on my iPad here.

    Internal internal.

    Planning and Development staff

    So he wants you to connect to Leonard.

    Unidentified speakerVoice B

    Yeah.

    StarkeyChair

    Is work a dirt road?

    Planning and Development staff

    Portions. It it's constructed in some southern segments and then in this area it is a dirt road.

    StarkeyChair

    I we've we've had folks from Wort in here.

    Planning and Development staff

    Village Green was uh was one of those that was on work. My favorite.

    MarianoVice Chair

    So

    StarkeyChair

    right here. Not on this project, on on another project.

    MarianoVice Chair

    So right here is no connection going that way. And I'm saying that maybe fifty years before it never connects, but eventually you should have a connection potential to open up there. The development I just saw at Hudson we just had approved. It goes into the edge of a neighborhood, kind of like this here, that may have may never connect. But they teed it out at the end, put markers at the end. They didn't even put the fence there, we should put the fence there.

    StarkeyChair

    But you see you see where th there could be a connection? Go to your left. Right there. That could continue on one. Well why not just have it straight? Well, that's a major road there. That's curly. Sure. That's a really wide road. Cutting through the neighborhood. Yeah, you can't have that. I don't know.

    I mean they've realigned curly. That's where I was going to do that.

    No, I I think it could connect, but not with the matrix.

    Joel

    It gets more complicated because of the realignment of prospect and curly. So William's gonna put up the other graphic that shows you the change in condition.

    StarkeyChair

    But I but I I I I see what

    But the hierarchy of roads is wrong for that to happen right there.

    Planning and Development staff

    Maybe this is a little more helpful. This is our right-of-way um Exhibit where the the existing and yellow is being uh moved now into the future.

    Joel

    The yellow is current prospect. Correct. Joel, identify yourself with the Jo Joel to 4700 Ridge View Road, Palm Harbor, Florida, I have been sworn for the applicant. Just for clarification, the the yellow highlighted part is current existing Prospect Road. where it curves and goes north just to give you a little better of the existing condition. From what we're doing. And the Master Roadway Plan has always contemplated this change. It's always contemplated

    Reconnecting, prospect to Curley at Virata. So we're we're simply implementing what the Mass Roadway Plan complicated uh contemplated. I get your point. The question is in the after condition, and that's all I'm suggesting, is look at this in the after condition. I think the concern is those folks along Work Road, they do not want to be integrated and connected. to the new project. They

    they like their separate lifestyle and it's not just one or two. They're all along there. So again, I think if you're going to require a connection from our project up to Word, uh I suggest that we c we be cautious. I I was

    StarkeyChair

    I think you should connect have a future up to Leonard and then one day that gets to the right.

    Joel

    Well I meant I meant to Leonard, but see those people they live on Leonard and they access

    StarkeyChair

    don't connect it now. Right. keep the ability to connect it

    Joel

    till

    StarkeyChair

    they come in.

    Joel

    So the question is for Mike and Seth is do we have since we're Okay, we're not developing anything south of prospect to be able to rebuild the road, provide the floodplain, the drainage. We also have to provide for all that right-of-way for curly. So since we're pushing all the density north and do an all rear loaded product, my question for the developer is do they have a spot along the rear loaded that they could provide the

    same type of right away, if you will, the same solution you had on the prior matter. but without constructing, because we do not want to be the ones to construct a connection to those people on work work road. I I'm not looking for a collection. I'm just looking for Let me ask if do they let me ask if they lose build if they lose a building or a unit in doing that. That's the question.

    StarkeyChair

    Well I don't see why you would and and Jack and I may be talking about two different things. But the intent is the same.

    Joel

    If you put up if you put up the C

    StarkeyChair

    the concept plan

    Joel

    go back to the binding plan and

    StarkeyChair

    you look you look to the the um left

    Joel

    leftmost

    StarkeyChair

    units Right? That L.

    Joel

    It would be between

    And you can't do that. Tell me what is what is the the north your westernmost north south drive.

    StarkeyChair

    Yes, that one. One day could if that property north of you

    Joel

    see where she's became available, could you not

    StarkeyChair

    extend your development into there and

    Joel

    Yeah, like right-the no yeah, we're right no right on the that right there.

    StarkeyChair

    It could one day maybe continue on into that land here.

    Joel

    Yeah, we can provide

    it.

    I think the answer is yes.

    StarkeyChair

    Yes.

    Joel

    And they would they would alignment they would align it wherever our westernmost north south drive goes if you're okay with us picking that spot wherever that falls. D and just doing the right-of-way provision. That would be fine.

    StarkeyChair

    Right? At least

    Joel

    As long as it's not connected now cause that'll cause a lot of

    StarkeyChair

    blowback

    Joel

    blowback.

    StarkeyChair

    Um I do have a question on multi-use trails. When I look at the map on Maratha

    Joel

    They're just told about you getting the

    StarkeyChair

    I don't understand their planning. I'm still working on that button. It looks like there's a multi use path around the traffic circle. But then it goes into s a sidewalk. And um And so would Who's building that who's building the new alignment?

    Joel

    Uh we are

    StarkeyChair

    following the The prescribed Design that has a multi-use path on one side?

    Joel

    This right. This this realignment actually was already approved in the funding and development agreement which you approved uh this M Pud was pending at the time, but we contemplated this. So yes, Galvin is actually building this whole new road segment, exchanging right away, and all of that's already covered by the development agreement that you approved just a few months ago. Uh to exchange right away and we build it and the design Any questions you have about the double roundabout

    and the design you need to discuss with the county engineer because we're doing what the county engineer has uh directed.

    StarkeyChair

    Yeah. Okay. Questions from Commissioner Weightman.

    Unidentified speakerVoice C

    Madam Chairman M I I don't want to cut the commissioner off, but but they've star sort of started a presentation. I don't know if they have a presentation that they want to do or they just want to answer questions.

    Joel

    We just want to answer their questions. Okay. Thank you.

    Unidentified speakerVoice C

    Good enough.

    WeightmanSecond Vice Chair

    Okay. So questions about the road, probably less to to you guys, but to our our our county.

    So this is a main path to the Northeast Transfer Station. You have walking floor trucks coming in and transferring trash and trucks getting to and from Northeast Transfer Station.

    StarkeyChair

    What's that?

    WeightmanSecond Vice Chair

    uh off hand cart and prospect is heavily traveled. So this double roundabout Which is Forgive my ignorance, I'm not even sure how the heck to even drive this thing uh based on this picture. Is this efficient enough to handle just that level of commercial traffic? to to get to and from 'em I mean you're talking tractor trailers they gotta figure out how to get two fifty two From there, unless you know, I don't know the timing of the ha of the

    hand card extension to the new fifty two. But you're talking counting logistics and in essential services.

    What these two roadways when they're built and then the and the path that they're going to go. We

    Joel

    I guess that's more. Commissioner, if I may, uh I think we will have Hankart built before this. I think two fifty two correct. We're also obligated to I think we will have the new Hankart north to uh Clinton constructed prior to this so you could come straight out of that transfer station at Tyndall and Hancart and go straight under

    WeightmanSecond Vice Chair

    construction.

    Joel

    It's already under construction and and will be completed all the way to Clinton.

    WeightmanSecond Vice Chair

    Okay. All right, good. That answers that question. Right. Okay. Thank you.

    Joel

    So again just to kind of close the loop. This whole infrastructure, including this segment, was part of that eighty million dollar commitment that Galvin has already made under that master development agreement. And this is essentially an in-field project. And how we got where we are. is the Benedictine sisters would were not inclined to just sell the right away to the county. They wanted to sell the entire parcel in the way Galvin solved that for the county was Galvin stepped up and bought the entire

    parcel And then decided they would make do as best they could with providing the right-of-way and then just developing the part they could develop. You know, for only

    not very many units, it's a huge financial undertaking to solve this road problem. So that that's how we got there on this particular project. And as we said, all of those units are one hundred percent rear loaded, uh which of course is above and beyond meeting design desires. And this will be one thing about this Is assuming you can negotiate the double roundabout. I

    Unidentified speakerVoice D

    can't figure it out.

    Joel

    I have I've been around one in Scotland and I think maybe one in Ireland. Um but the the beauty of this, if you think about it, is this entry come in and off curly Murata. It's going to be really a dramatic entry in because this is the the northwest corner of VOPH. And so you're gonna have all of this green space to the south when you come around and make that entry and then the only thing you're gonna have to the left are these rear loaded products that all have front of house, you know, without driveway and without garages. So it's

    gonna be visually it should be a very attractive window into V OPH. with a lot of green space on the south and rear loaded product so you're not looking at driveways and garage doors the minute you come into V O P H. So I think it's a good solution. for that property, 74% of this property will be open space. Almost three quarters of it. So I it's it's a substantial uh deal. So if there are

    any other questions on this one, we're happy to answer them. The next one's also an infill project that relates to the ability to build hand cart, but we can talk about that in a moment.

    StarkeyChair

    Um Okay. This is a a public hearing. Is there anyone else who wishes to speak to this? Item?

    All right, well I'm just and it just hoping this developer would buy more and more land. So I'm glad to see him coming in. 'Cause I think he's doing what we envisioned that this neighborhood would be. So um Okay, and no one's online? No more public comment? All right, let's I'll take a motion.

    Oakley

    Soon moved.

    MarianoVice Chair

    Second.

    StarkeyChair

    All in favor?

    Joel

    Aye.

    You need to add your

    MarianoVice Chair

    right-of-way condition. Um I tell you what, I'm I'm gonna be comfortable with you guys figuring it out to let it go.
