Good afternoon, Ibro Stevens, Planning Development, Economic Growth Department. Presenting PDE 250061, a comprehensive plan amendment in the name of CPA 2406, Wells, Well Fields, and Wellhead Protection Areas.
This is a staff-initiated comprehensive plan map amendment. Updating map two-one of Wells, Well Fields, and Wellhead Protection Areas to include Hudson Waterworks. During the process, the city of Anat San Antonio did approach us to include a couple of their wells.
All the wells are located south of New York Avenue, the southeast corner of the intersection of Bolton Avenue and Little Road, as well as south of Derby Road in the city of San Antonio.
This is um the location map. We are in the west as well as the north market areas.
And here's a visual of specifically where the well is located.
The Hudson Waterworks Wells will have um this is the map showing the wells specifically with a 200 foot buffer.
And then this is the city of San Antonio Wells with a 500-foot fixed radius.
This is an updated version of Map 2 1, Wells, Well Fields and Well High Protection Areas to include those maps I had mentioned.
And we previously received and filed the updated maps, which are the ones in the agenda package online now. Correct?
That is correct, yes sir.
So just to sum it up, these are wells that aren't mapped under the county's current wellhead protection regulations. They were they're wells that we basically missed originally and we're adding them.
That is correct, yes.
The proposed amendment is consistent with the following comprehensive plan policies. Policy CON 166, Establishment of Wellhead Protection Areas. Policy CON 167, the Groundwater Protection Ordinance and Creation.
And with that, staff recommend the local planning agency find the proposed amendments consistent with the comprehensive plan. I will be happy to answer any questions.
I don't think this item was pulled by the Planning Commissioner Weightman. No.
Okay. Um
I do have one question. Richard, go ahead. Yeah, just cu are there any other independent utilities out there that we don't have mapped on there and and is there a plan to get them on the map?
I would like to bring in our public facilities to answer those questions.
Good afternoon. My name is Aurribel Rivero. I'm a project manager for Pasco County Utilities. So we are currently working on doing a comprehensive study to update this comprehensive plan map and we will include all the things that uh we need to include at that point.
Okay.
Does that answer your question or did you know?
And are you gonna make an a attempt I guess to put them on there?
At this point this is um what we have and we are as as I say we're going to perform a study to see if we missed anything else. Okay.
Thank you.
Thank you. Any other questions?
I I don't know if this is one you can answer with on the on the map of the proposed San Antonio wells we're showing a five hundred foot radius on the proposed wells and there's two existing wells shown on here without a radius. Do they need to have a radius on that map?
Could you repeat the question?
On the on the map we were provided for the the new San Antonio wells, there's five hundred foot rod radiuses shown on the proposed two wells. There are two existing wells on the Bottom end of that map without a radius shown.
No, I think they're bringing up on that. She's bringing that.
Who's looking into that? Are they pulling the map up? Is that what you're doing?
That's the Hudson one.
Yeah, it's gonna be it's the last map in the package.
Yeah.
It doesn't yeah, I mean I'm with Matt. Doesn't look like there's any radiuses shown on those existing wells, just on the proposed ones.
Um
Well while staff looks into that can we hear the from the public and then maybe they can come up with an answer while it's public speaking.
Okay.
Christy Zemmer address on file. I am not opposed to protecting any well field area that's critical and paramount to all of us. However, what I am subject to complain about is We are given only the information that is on your website for these meetings to be able to access the maps, to be able to access the information what these issues are about. Where I have a problem is when people come in and show Present to you guys at the last minute different
information that we're not given. And I'm not okay with that. The people that come in here at the last minute and ask for a continuance. Aren't there rules that you have to give certain amount of notice for these continuations? People leave their jobs all day to be here to talk about these issues that are concerning to them. But I have a problem when they just pop in extra maps and extra information that we don't get access to. And that's where I have a problem. Please protect our wildfields.
And I agree. And I I think I mean recall this is this came up because it was an item where this well fields these well fields weren't mapped and and there were no maps, so this is being made part of the map so we can do precisely that. So Thank you.
Uh good afternoon. Amy Tull with Planning Development and Economic Growth. So this is the map that I think you're referencing. This is just a location map. The intent of this map was to highlight the 500 fixed radius. We're not removing those two wells are existing on the overall map. It is on that map. This is just the location map. So we'll fix that for BCC, make sure that it's it's shown there accurately. And then Jamie, yes, that was correct. So the intent of this amendment was
actually brought to us approximately a year ago or so with a project. that was over on the west side, so Hudson Waterworks. They did have mapped wells, but we did not have them on our map. Uh we did hire a consultant to evaluate the actual uh five year and ten year wellhead uh paths for that area. They've concluded their uh results. This is the uh result of those uh changes.
So Amy, can you make sure that the updated maps that were handed out to the Planning Commission today that before this goes to the board, those are Put online so that the public has an opportunity to see the updated maps?
Sure, yeah, absolutely.
Thank you.
Okay, very good. Anything else from the public? Anybody else here to speak on this item?
I'll just say I was pleased actually I had read the Wellhead study in association with the prior rezoning a couple of months ago. So I got an advanced peek at this and my conclusion and actually consultant states it and I agree with it. They did a much more conservative analysis than would have been required by just our comprehensive plan. So we're actually actually protecting more than what we our plan might require to do. Good.
Very good. All right. Nothing else? Any emotion?
I'll move to approve.
Second. Motion to
approve. That's
with the amended maps.
With the
amended
maps, correct?
Okay.
Thank
you.
Motion to approve and a second with the amended maps. All in favor? Aye. Aye. Opposed? Motion carries.
