Are you proposing that the top floor or the floor that you want to study or is this a memo you want to hear feedback on this is a menu and i want to circle the ones weve zeroed in one the stakeholder. Okay. Had h that will be very helpful. Okay. Its the slide right before that one. The first bullet point weve cello we think is of critical importance for us we know were going to be vaement a number of proposals that propose to change the definitions of retail. And the ones that people seemed to generally agree on after that theres bone that looks like the fourth one down the additional chairtion that combetsz to the Square Footage and the concentration and dictionary how big of a cheap is that. The one next employment impact formula vs. Extinct retail to the extent were able to and well do our best. The next last night it was interest for the Real Estate Market resources has convulsed ann all the factors. That would give us four we think we can afford four thank you thats very helpful w
Known for the lawn that leads up to the tower at the top of the hill and the fringe of trees that surround it, its known all over the city, you can see it all over. And part of what the university is proposing as a mitigation is a landscape plan to make sure that those large mature trees are secure and safe. While one mitigation in order to be a mitigation, the trees have to exist. They have to survive the process along the way. And ill give you the example of what went on with loyola village. We were told at an imp meeting there that the campus landscape plan will protect those large mature trees. We didnt have to worry about them. We asked that they be marked during the construction or conditional use phase. They were. But that didnt stop the fact that my wife came home one afternoon and of the eight trees that were 50 to 70 feet tall right directly behind our property, six were already down and one of them stripped. It took her the rest of the morning to get some attention from usf
It needs to include the fact those trees will be platted and marked on the site and given to the planner ahead of the design process so he he can avoid them. That was not done the first time around and i dont think its too much to ask that we go to that next level in terms of making sure those trees survive. I really feel that these need to happen at the imp process because if we await conditional use, once the building is designed its hard to change. And if you look at the plan in there a lot of those trees they show on the metric around the landscape excuse me, around the dormitory, will not be there. Theyll be gone. It will be too late. So, the screening that theyre proposing as a mitigation will not happen. I ask you to make them provide that before you accept the imp. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please, and let me call a few more names. Tanya solomon. Bob lee. Ruth levy. [speaker not understood]. Christin chris wall. Good afternoon, commissioners. My name is ruth levy. I l
Plan will protect those large mature trees. We didnt have to worry about them. We asked that they be marked during the construction or conditional use phase. They were. But that didnt stop the fact that my wife came home one afternoon and of the eight trees that were 50 to 70 feet tall right directly behind our property, six were already down and one of them stripped. It took her the rest of the morning to get some attention from usf and some attention from the contractor. She saved one of those eight trees. That was all that was possible. Now, the university accepted that it was a mistake. They accepted that they really had some culpability here. So, what did they do . They offered to plant six fast growing tree. Ill tell you those six Fast Growing Trees have grown very fast. Theyre 20 feet tall now and dont block what they were supposed to block 13 years ago. Ill be dead before they become the screen theyre supposed to be. The issue is how can we prevent this from happening again . I
Target is laughing people im looking stability of employment in those defy types of categories. The last thing i want to see that we potentially take a look at chain stores as they used to be called if i remember correcting who were in town before 2004 and why theyre basically part of the fully established development. I think the numbers should be added to how were tallying retail since 2004. Im not sure thats possible perhaps the realtor could help us with that but that information will help us get a better understanding of whos really in town. Thank you commissioner borden. I guess one im a little bit concerned i think a lot of the data and information were not going to be able to get. The employment numbers, you know, the social economic or other numbers are hard to get. One of the things the impact of the commercial corridor is look at the pedestrian traffic. They have those sensors that track pedestrians if i want to see the impact whether people leave a overlook store and shop d
