- Northeast Rural Area and Connected City concerns
Michael Pultoric we really do appreciate what you guys do and your service to the county. The other thing I wanted to mention was in December I reached out to each commissioner and also Director Engel and I lead the Pasco Connected Cities Residence Group. We have over eleven hundred members and we have a lot of concerns about the Connected City. I reached out to bring some of our concerns about the Connected City development and rezoning. to their attention. And I want to thank Chairwoman Sarkey who sat down with us on Monday, and Director Engel, who has also sat down with us to listen to our concerns. We very much appreciate them. Um some of the concerns that we've wanted to bring forward is in the connected city. The majority of the recreational areas and parks and all of the nature trails did not get built. They are not in the rezoning. They did not get past engineering. A big portion of the connected city intent is parks, open

Michael Pultoric While she's getting there, the connected hub. Uh let's go back. Right there, stop. Thank you. Okay, so just so you gentlemen can be on the same page with me, this is the the community hub. Every red box is already packaged for developers or current housing. All of it, except for one parcel. The parcel on the top left were the gray stars on it. That's the last remaining parcel that has not been already rezoned for purpose. And everything else is housing. We have not received any of the recreational or open air space. That's the last one left. It's gonna be a hot topic. I promise the people of the Connected City are very passionate about being given what they were promised when this came around. That's the overhead as we zoom in a little bit, that one parcel touches four different districts from the con connected

Several speakers Okay. Good afternoon. I'm here today to speak on the per oh, I'm sorry. Amy Pultoric, [address removed]. I'm here today to speak on the purpose and intent of the comprehensive plan for the Connected City. My concerns are that within the Connected City Comprehensive Plan Amendment, certain policies are not being met within the special planning area, specifically the community hub zone. This zone intends to create a unique centralized education, recreation, and open space system that is well connected to each special planning area zone and serves and complements the entire connected city development. The community hub zone shall be characterized by a potential mix of residential, educational, recreational, civic, cultural, and resort type uses centered on a central amenity, King Lake. A few of the planning principles for the connected city are One, a connected city promotes a healthy lifestyle through planning decisions that support physical activity and movement, as well as access to fresh foods. The connected city must provide infrastructure that supports wellness as part of the daily routine. This includes opportunities for and access to walking and biking to local commercial areas, parks and recreational uses, schools and civic institutions, fresh local grown produce, and clean water and air.

Michael Pultoric you for trying to work with us and find the best for current and future residents as we balance these things out. What I'd like to touch on is where we're currently at with the Connected City, its development. How it has developed and what was promised to the residents and the future residents years ago. The the group that I'm representing, by the way, is now six hundred and eighty-one members as of ten minutes ago. And I'd like to thank a bunch of our neighbors for showing up and speaking today about these issues. There's a lot of individuals that didn't know today's meeting was gonna happen and um I promise we're going to continue to push forward for proactive ways to meet the needs of all of our residents. For those at home that don't know, the Connected City was started in twenty fifteen with a Senate bill. Part of this Senate bill With the basis of it being a pilot program for the state in coordination with Metro Developments, the Connected City was going to be established as a pilot program. The oversight for the project was going to be pushed or given to local

Tanya Riddlesworth where's the green space? So we have Uh the Wesley Chapel District Park, we have a park in the villages of Pasadena Hills. Those are not in Connected City. So if that was what you guys had intended of doing was saying, well you've got these parks over here and over here, then that should have been told to us, not you're gonna have green space within the connected city. Um as you can see from the map that was just shown the particular parcel that we'll be discussed later is in the center of Connected City, would be a great spot to put a park. Um I don't want to really speak too much on that because I know that's specific. Um but I also wanted to mention uh about the roads. Um there are a couple main roads, the Kenton Road and McKendry Road that are main three roads connecting the south part of Connected City with the northern part of Connected City. And currently there are still dirt roads with um no kind of Line timeline in sight of when those are gonna be fixed. I know Kenton, the developer is supposed to fix out when they

Tanya Riddlesworth Uh hi, my name is Tanya Riddlesworth. I think some of you know me. I've met with some of you before and I hope to meet with some of you in the future about this same topic. Uh address is [address removed]. Um so I'm on McKendry Road, the dirt road that connects up to 52 where they're building the old Pasco Town Center and down to Overpass Road where the new hospital is being built. So I'm here to talk to you today about the Connected City and the presentation that you'll see later related to the Connected City and the progress there. And I just encourage you guys to ask a lot of questions if you're able to, or maybe have the discussions with them, with the planners afterwards about what's happening with the Connected City and what was planned for, and how that's not really. What's being played out. So I moved here 10 years ago, bought my small farm to raise my family. I had my homestead there. Our next door neighbor had 40 acres with cows, beautiful area. It's
- Open code violations and flood zone permits
Several speakers Connected City: should have never been pulled. The permit should have never even been issued in the first place.

Michael Pultoric of the purpose and intents are coming together. There's specifically with the pilot program, straight out of the master plan. It's supposed to highlight libraries, emergency services, law enforcement, etc. For our new fire chief. We do not have a fire station designated for the quote hundred thousand people that Connected City are gonna bring in. The Connected City Fire Station is on the west side of I-75. And I can't imagine a fire station on the other side of the interstate in correlation with the San Antonio Fire Station and the east of Epperson Fire Station can accommodate emergency services inside the connected city with the density we're referring to. So there's no fire station on the table. It is not in the master plan. This is what we were sold for the business district. These are some beautiful buildings for the growing high-tech, high paying jobs and businesses that we were hoping to bring in.
- Public comment on flooding and development
Several speakers Connected City: we're we're taking Live Local very seriously. Uh I in I maybe
