THE SECOND PUBLIC WORKSHOP ON THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN MOBILITY PLAN AND MOBILITY FEE.
I AM OUT THE A JEFFERSON, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. AND TODAY WE HAVE OUR CONSULTANT JONATHAN PAUL. WITH NEW URBAN CONCEPTS HERE TO DISCUSS THE MOBILITY PLAN, BUT THE STUDY ACTUALLY THE PLAN THAT'S COME OUT OF THE STUDY AND THE PROPOSED FEE. WITH

Mobility Plan Presentation
]THAT ALTERNATIVE TO JONATHAN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH HEALTHIER. AND AS YOU MENTIONED, THIS IS OUR SECOND WORKSHOP. THIS. EARLIER TODAY WE HAD ONE FROM 4 30 TO 6 O'CLOCK AND IT WAS MAYBE A LITTLE BIT MORE FLUID AND HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS AND ANSWER. I THINK IS PART OF THIS ONE. WE'RE GOING TO GO THROUGH THE PRESENTATION AND HOLD THE QUESTION AND ANSWERS. TILL AFTERWARDS FOR ANY MEMBERS OF THE AUDIENCE OR OUR COMMENT CARDS. IF YOU WANT TO WRITE DOWN SOME NOTES AND COMMENTS TO US, SO WE HAVE A RECORD OF IT. AND THEN, UM THIS IS ALSO BEING IT'S ON ZOOM. UM AND THIS WILL ALSO BE FOR ANY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THAT ARE WATCHING OR WANT TO LET SOMEBODY ELSE KNOW ABOUT IT. IT WILL BE AVAILABLE FROM THE VILLAGERS WEBSITE TO WATCH AFTER IF YOU'RE NOT ABLE TO MAKE THIS SO AGAIN, MY NAME IS JONATHAN PAUL AND PRINCIPLE OF NEW URBAN CONCEPTS PRESENTING THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWNS, MOBILITY PLAN AND MOBILITY FEE. THE MOBILITY PLANNING MOBILITY FEE IS REALLY A VISION OVER THE NEXT 22 YEARS FOR HOW WE'RE GOING TO MOVE PEOPLE IN AND AROUND THE COMMUNITY. WHETHER THEY WALK, BICYCLE BRIDE TRANSIT OR DRIVE A VEHICLE TRULY LOOKING AT ALL MODES OF TRAVEL AND HOW THEY MOVED TO THE VILLAGE. AROUND THE VILLAGE AND FROM THE VILLAGE. ANOTHER COMPONENT OF THIS OVERALL PLAN IS A MOBILITY FEE.MOBILITY FEE IS A MITIGATION PAID BY NEW DEVELOPMENT ONLY. FOR A NEW HOME. A NEW BUSINESS OUR NEW OFFICE. OR IF YOU HAVE AN EXISTING HOME AND YOU'RE EXPANDING IT OR YOU'RE EXPANDING YOUR BUSINESS. ANY NEW DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY? IS SUBJECT TO PAY A MOBILITY FEE TO OFFSET THEIR TRANSPORTATION IMPACT. IT'S NOT A TAX ON EXISTING RESIDENTS. IT'S NOT LEVIED ON YOUR PROPERTY, AND IT'S NOT A REOCCURRING ASSESSMENT. IT'S A ONE TIME CHARGE AT THE TIME OF BUILDING PERMIT ACTIVITY. SO THERE ARE MULTIPLE STEPS THAT ARE INVOLVED IN DEVELOPING A MOBILITY FEE. UM THE FIRST ONE THE VILLAGES ALREADY UNDERTAKEN , AND THAT'S ESTABLISHING THE INTENT IN THE VILLAGES. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. TO ADOPT THE MOBILITY PLAN AND MOBILITY FEE.
UM, THE NEXT THREE STEPS ARE DEVELOPING THE PLAN DEVELOPING THE FEE ITSELF AND THEN ESTABLISHING IMPLEMENTING ORDINANCE THAT GOVERNS HOW THE FEAR IS ADMINISTERED. AND BEYOND THAT STEPS, 56 AND SEVEN ARE REALLY THE DAY TO DAY ADMINISTRATION OF THE MOBILITY FEE. PROGRAMMING PROJECTS, UM EACH YEAR AS PART OF THE VILLAGES CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM AND AS PART OF ITS BUDGET WILL PRIORITIZE PROJECTS THAT ARE IDENTIFIED. IN THE MOBILITY PLAN. AND IT WILL ALLOCATE WHATEVER FUNDING HAS BEEN COLLECTED OR PROJECTED TO BE COLLECTED TOWARDS THOSE PROJECTS. AND THEN ULTIMATELY, THE FINAL STEP IS ACTUALLY BUILDING THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE SHOWN ON THE MOBILITY PLAN. SO THEY'RE ACTUALLY BEYOND JUST THOSE OVERALL STEPS. THERE ARE ACTUALLY A NUMBER OF DETAILED STEPS 18, IN FACT, TO DEVELOP A MOBILITY PLAN MOBILITY FEE. BECAUSE THIS ISN'T ASSESSMENT ON NEW DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY. THERE IS CASE LAW. LEGAL PRECEDENT AND FLORIDA STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS THAT HAVE TO BE MET FOR ANY FEE.
ESSENTIALLY THESE STEPS HELP US TO JUSTIFY AND DOCUMENT HOW THIS PROPOSED MOBILITY PLAN AND MOBILITY FEE IS BOTH LEGAL. AND MEETS ALL STATUTE TORY REQUIREMENTS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. SO MOBILITY FEE AND MOBILITY PLAN DIFFER FROM WHAT'S IN PLACE TODAY, UM, CURRENTLY WITHIN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN, MARTIN COUNTY LEVEES OR ROADWAY IMPACT FEE. ON NEW DEVELOPMENT. THAT NEW DEVELOPMENT PAYS A FEE TO THE COUNTY. THEN THE COUNTY HAS THE ABILITY TO SPEND THOSE FUNDS. UM ANYWHERE IN THE EAST OR WESTERN PORTION OF MARTIN COUNTY ALL THE WAY FROM THE TURNPIKE TO THE EAST ST LUCIE COUNTY TO THE NORTH OKEECHOBEE COUNTY TO THE
[00:05:05]
WEST IN PALM BEACH COUNTY TO THE SOUTH. SO THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT THAT OUR DEVELOPMENT THAT PAYS A ROAD IMPACT FEE THAT'S WITHIN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN. THERE'S NO REQUIREMENT FOR THE COUNTY TO SPEND THAT MONEY IN INDIAN TOWN . IT CAN SPEND IT ANYWHERE IN THAT OVERALL AREA. THE MOBILITY PLAN. LOOKS AT. HOW DO WE ACTUALLY MOVE PEOPLE AROUND THE VILLAGE BOTH TODAY AND INTO THE FUTURE, WHETHER THEY ELECT TO WALK BICYCLE RIDE TRANSIT. YOU SOME NEW FORM OF MICROMOBILITY, SUCH AS A GOLF CART OR ELECTRIC SCOOTER? UM HE'S OVER OUR LEFT.OR DRIVE THEIR OWN PERSONAL VEHICLE, SO THE ROADWAY IMPACT FEE. THE MINISTER BY THE COUNTY.
ONLY FOCUSES ON CARS. HOW DO YOU MOVE THEM? HOW DO YOU COUNT THEM? HOW DO YOU PROVIDE CAPACITY TO THEM? THE VILLAGE IS PROPOSED MOBILITY FEE LOOKS AT ALL MODES OF TRANSPORTATION. AND SO THE POLICIES THAT ARE BOTH WITHIN THE VILLAGES CURRENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TODAY AND THOSE THAT EXIST WITHIN MARTIN COUNTY IMPLEMENT WHAT'S KNOWN AS TRANSPORTATION CONCURRENCY. THIS IS A REQUIREMENT THAT AS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN IT HAS INFRASTRUCTURE AVAILABLE TO IT.
TO MEET ITS TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. THIS SYSTEM WAS IN PLACE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS IN FLORIDA AND OVERALL WORK WELL IN MOST COMMUNITIES. UNTIL THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE STARTED MAKING CHANGES AND STARTED RESTRICTING HOW LOCAL GOVERNMENTS COULD ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT CONCURRENCY.
AND ULTIMATELY, UM, RESULTED IN THE SYSTEM. THAT LARGELY ALLOWS DEVELOPMENT TO MOVE FORWARD. AND IF THERE'S ANY EXISTING ROADS THAT ARE OVER CAPACITY, IT'S ACTUALLY THE REQUIREMENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT TO ADDRESS THEM , AS OPPOSED TO DEVELOPERS, SO TRANSPORTATION CONCURRENCY IN AND OF ITSELF. BASED ON CURRENT STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS REALLY, NO LONGER DOES WITH THE LAW DID BACK IN 1985. SO MANY COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT FLORIDA ARE LOOKING AT MOBILITY PLANS, MOBILITY FEES. TO FOCUS ON PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE. AS OPPOSED TO REGULATE AND DEVELOPMENT COUNTING CARS FOCUSING ON JUST ROADWAY CAPACITY, BUT INSTEAD LOOKING AT HOW DO YOU GET PEOPLE FROM THEIR HOME TO A PLACE OF WORSHIP TO A SCHOOL? UM TO A RESTAURANT, WHETHER THEY WALK, THEY BIKE OR THEY RIDE TRANSIT. SO THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ELEMENTS THAT WE USE TO GOVERN DEVELOPMENT OF THE MOBILITY PLAN. UM THE TWO BIGGEST ARE ONE THE MOVEMENT OF PEOPLE. TWO IS SAFETY AND CONNECTIVITY. UM ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS FOR SOMEBODY WALKING AND BICYCLING IS THAT THERE'S A CONTINUOUS FACILITY FOR THEM TO DO SO, AND IT'S SAFE. ONE OF THE REASONS FLORIDA DOESN'T HAVE A HIGH LEVEL OF PEOPLE WALKING AND BIKING IS A LOT OF OUR ROADWAYS DON'T HAVE SIDEWALKS AND BIKE LANES ON THEM. AND A LOT OF THE ROADWAYS JUST AREN'T SAFE. FLORIDA IS ACTUALLY THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACE IN THE COUNTRY, NOT JUST INDIAN TOWN OR MARTIN COUNTY, BUT FLORIDA WIDE SO MOST DANGEROUS, UM STATE IN THE COUNTRY FOR WALKING AND BICYCLING HAS THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF CRASHES HIGHEST NUMBER OF FATALITIES, AND THAT'S LARGELY BECAUSE OUR TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON MOVING CARS. AND NOT MOVING PEOPLE MOBILITY PLAN SEEKS TO CHANGE THAT AND REALLY EMPHASIZES. MAKING IT SAFE FOR SOMEBODY TO GET AROUND OTHER THAN JUST SIR VEHICLE BUT ALSO LOOKING AT SPEED LIMITS AND SLOWING THOSE DOWN, SO IT'S ALSO A GREAT SAFER FOR PEOPLE DRIVING. AND SO ONE OF THE BIG CHANGES OF THE MOBILITY PLAN. WOULD BE REPLACING THE VILLAGES CURRENT ROADWAY LEVEL OF SERVICE. THAT COUNTS CARS AND FOCUSES ON CAPACITY. WITH A QUALITY OF SERVICE THAT'S BASED ON THE SPEED OF TRAVEL. WHERE THE SLOWER SPEEDS ARE BETTER QUALITY OF SERVICE FOR EVERYBODY. IN THE HIGHER SPEEDS PRIMARILY SERVED MOTOR VEHICLES.
RIGHT NOW, THE WAY CAN CAPACITY LEVEL SERVICE WORKS, THE HIGHER THE SPEEDS ABOUT THE LEVEL OF SERVICE ABOUT THE CAPACITY. IN THIS SCENARIO, THE SLOWER THE SPEEDS. THE BETTER IS FOR EVERYBODY WHERE THEY'RE WALKING, BIKING. ACCESSING TRANSIT OR DRIVING, SO IT REALLY IS A FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT AWAY FROM MOVING CARS TOWARDS MOVING PEOPLE. WE'RE ALSO LOOKING TO ESTABLISH STANDARDS FOR BICYCLES , PEDESTRIANS AND TRANSIT. THOSE ARE NOT CURRENTLY IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT ARE THE MOBILITY PLAN FOCUSED ON IS ONE MAKING
[00:10:04]
SURE THAT ALL ROADWAYS IN THE VILLAGE HAD A SIDEWALK FIRST, AT LEAST ON ONE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. TO PROVIDE CONTINUITY AND CONNECTIVITY TO THE OVERALL SYSTEM. ONCE A VILLAGE IS ACHIEVED THAT GOAL THAN IN THE FUTURE, YOU CAN LOOK AT ADDITIONAL MEASURES TO ADD STREET TREES. ADD LANDSCAPING AND OTHER TYPES OF AMENITIES. TO MAKE IT MORE PLEASANT TO WALK.BUT IN REALITY, THERE ARE SOME GAPS IN THE EXISTING SYSTEM THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED FIRST, BEFORE YOU CAN START FOCUSING ON ADDING ADDITIONAL FEATURES AND AMENITIES. TO THE RAILWAY NETWORK. SIMILAR TO PEOPLE WALKING. UM WE ALSO HAVE STANDARDS FOR PEOPLE BICYCLING.
AND SIMILARLY PROVIDING AT LEAST A BASE NETWORK OF FACILITIES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. AND AS THOSE FACILITIES ARE BUILT, LOOKING TO OTHER TYPES OF BICYCLE LANES, SUCH AS PROTECTED LANES. BUFFER LANES OR LANES THAT ARE SEPARATED FROM TRAFFIC. AND THEN FOR PLANNING PURPOSES, BOTH WITH THE COUNTY AND ALSO PURSUING STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDS . WE'VE ESTABLISHED STANDARDS FOR TRANSIT. THAT HELPED THE COMMUNITY OVER TIME. DEVELOPED DIFFERENT TARGETS FOR WHAT LEVEL OF TRANSIT SERVICE THEY WANT TO SEE IN THE COMMUNITY. AND MORE AND MORE COMMUNITIES ARE LOOKING BEYOND JUST A REGULAR BUS. A NUMBER OF THEM ARE ACTUALLY PURCHASING GOLF CARTS. OUR NEIGHBORHOOD ELECTRIC VEHICLES, AND THEY'RE RUNNING THEIR OWN WHAT'S KNOWN AS A MICRO TRANSIT CIRCULATOR SERVICE? UM A TYPICAL BOSS RUNS ANYWHERE FROM $500,000 TO A MILLION DOLLARS. A GOLF CART. A DECENT ONE CAN BE PURCHASED AT $5000, A NEIGHBORHOOD ELECTRIC VEHICLE.
IT SERVES UP TO SEVEN PEOPLE PURCHASED FOR $10,000. AND SO MORE AND MORE COMMUNITIES ARE LOOKING ACTUALLY PURCHASING THESE VEHICLES AND JUST RUNNING TRANSIT THEMSELVES TO GET PEOPLE IN AND AROUND THEIR COMMUNITY, WHETHER IT'S TO A PLACE OF WORSHIP TO THE SCHOOLS. UM TO PARKS. THEY'RE NOT NECESSARILY RELYING ON A BIG TRANSIT RIDER. UM, SO TRANSIT. ISN'T JUST THE TRADITIONAL BOSTON ANYMORE, BUT IT'S ALSO A NEW FORMS OF TRANSPORTATION AS WELL. MOBILITY PLAN IS REALLY FOCUSED ON THE SPEED OF TRAVEL. UM MOST CARS GENERALLY TRAVEL 25 MILES AND ABOVE. SO THAT'S WHERE PRIMARILY PLANNING HAS BEEN EMPHASIZED. IS SPEED LIMITS 25 MILES AND GREATER WELL, PEOPLE WALKING, BIKING RIDING ON A GOLF CART OR NEIGHBORHOOD ELECTRIC VEHICLE OR USING SHARED MOBILITY. THEY'RE NOT MOVING MORE THAN 25 MILES AN HOUR, THEY'RE ACTUALLY GENERALLY MOVING LESS. AND SO LET'S MOBILITY PLAN REALLY EMPHASIZES MAKING SURE THOSE MODES OF TRAVEL ARE ACCOMMODATED. THERE'S JUST AN EXAMPLE OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF MULTIMODAL FACILITIES THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE PLAN, WHETHER THEY BE A BUFFERED BICYCLE LANE, A MULTIMODAL WAY THAT CAN CARRY A GOLF CART AND ELECTRIC BIKE AND ELECTRIC SCOOTER. FOR SHARED USE PATHS, WHICH IS DESIGNED FOR BOTH PEOPLE WALKING AND BICYCLING. MOBILITY PLAN FEATURES A NUMBER OF FUTURE ROADWAYS, BOTH WITHIN THE VILLAGE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VILLAGE TO BE BUILT BY NEW DEVELOPMENT. WIN THAT NEW DEVELOPMENT BUILDS THESE MAJOR ROADWAY SYSTEMS. THEY'LL BE DESIGN STANDARDS THAT ARE RECOMMENDED FOR THE VILLAGE TO ADOPT. THERE WERE REQUIRED NOT ONLY TRAVEL LANES FOR CARS BUT ALSO A SEPARATE, DEDICATED LANE FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES SUCH AS A GOLF CAR AND ELECTRIC SCOOTER AND ELECTRIC BICYCLE. AND A SEPARATE FACILITY FOR PEOPLE WALKING AND BICYCLING, USING THEIR OWN TWO FT. OR FOR SOMEBODY, AND, UH, YOU KNOW, MOBILITY IMPAIRED PERSON USING A WHEELCHAIR FOR MOTOR TRAVEL, BUT REALLY ACCOMMODATING ALL SPEEDS OF TRAVEL PEOPLE WALKING PEOPLE BICYCLING OR RIDING A GOLF CART AND THEN PEOPLE DRIVING IN A CAR. SO AS PART OF THE OVERALL NETWORK. WE LOOKED AT NOT ONLY THE STREETS WITHIN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN, BUT WE ALSO LOOKED AT THE BROADER NETWORK ALL THE WAY UP TO, UM MARTIN HIGHWAY. OUT WEST TO, UM 98 TO THE SOUTH DOWN OF THE PALM BEACH COUNTY LINE AND TO THE EAST ALL THE WAY OUT TO THE TURNPIKE. ONE OF THE REASONS WE'VE DONE. THIS IS WE'RE LOOKING AT IMPACT OF STATE ROADS, COUNTY ROADS AND RAILWAYS WITHIN THE VILLAGE. BECAUSE OF MOBILITY FEE IS INTENDED TO REPLACE MARTIN COUNTY'S ROADWAY IMPACT FEE. IT MAY REPLACE ALL OF IT. IT MAY REPLACE A SHARE OF IT. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO BE NEGOTIATED BETWEEN THE VILLAGE
[00:15:03]
AND MARTIN COUNTY. BUT AS WE GO THROUGH THIS PROCESS, IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE LOOKED AT ALL TYPES OF ROADWAYS. AND ALL ROWS OF WIRELESS OF JURISDICTION AND MAKE SURE THAT WE IDENTIFIED WHAT IMPROVEMENTS ARE NEEDED TO THOSE CORRIDORS. AND SO ALL THIS DISCUSSION PLAYS INTO DEVELOPING THE MOBILITY PLAN FOR THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN. AND SO THE MOBILITY PLAN FEATURES BOTH NEW ROADWAYS. SERVING IN AREAS IN THE CITY THAT ARE THE VILLAGE THAT ARE LIKELY TO DEVELOP IN THE FUTURE OR TO BE ANNEXED. SHARED USE PATHWAYS ALONG THE MAJOR COUNTY ROADS SUCH AS CITRIX FARM SILVER FOX ALLAH PATH TO. THE EVENTUAL WIDENING OF WAR FIELD BOULEVARD, THE PORTIONS THAT ARE TWO LANES TODAY. CONNECTING PARTS OF THE STREET GRID WITHIN THE CORE PART OF THE VILLAGE THAT ARE MISSING. AND THEN ALSO ADDING SIDEWALKS. TO THE EXISTING RAILWAY NETWORK.QUITE A FEW OF THE VILLAGE ROADWAYS HAVE SIDEWALKS TODAY. THERE ARE SEVERAL THAT DON'T SO ONE OF THE PRIORITIES OF THE MOBILITY PLAN, ESPECIALLY ON SOME OF THE RESIDENTIAL STREETS , IS MAKING SURE THAT YOU HAVE SIDEWALKS ON AT LEAST ONE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. AND THEN FROM THERE BUILDING TO ADD YOUR MULTIMODAL PATHS. AND THEN, AS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN, THEY WOULD HELP BUILD SOME OF THESE NEW ROADWAYS. RIGHT NOW. THERE ARE NO PLANS FOR IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE VILLAGE IS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WAS ONLY ADOPTED FOUR YEARS AGO WHEN THE VILLAGE INCORPORATED AND THEY ENVISIONED THE DEVELOPMENT OF A MOBILITY PLAN AN IMMOBILITY FEE TO GUIDE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT. MARTIN COUNTY HAS NO PLANS FOR ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS IN THIS PORTION OF THE COMMUNITY DLT OTHER THAN WAR FIELD HAS NO PLANS FOR RAILWAYS IN THIS COMMUNITY. SO REALLY, IT'S INCUMBENT UPON THE VILLAGE TO ENSURE THAT AS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN AS AREAS ANNEX BUT THEY DON'T JUST MAKE THE EASY CONNECTION TO WHATEVER ROADWAY EXIST BECAUSE THAT MEANS YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE ONE DRIVEWAY TO ONE ROAD AND ALL TRAFFIC IS GOING TO COME OUT ON THAT ONE ROAD. INSTEAD IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO ENSURE THAT NEW DEVELOPMENT ACTUALLY BUILD YOUR NETWORK. IT MAKES CONNECTIONS TO MULTIPLE ROADS. WRITE A MINIMUM STUBS OUT TO ENSURE THAT THE NEXT DEVELOPMENT THAT COMES IN CAN CONNECT AND CONTINUE BUILDING THAT ROAD ONWARD. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT A LOT OF COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT FLORIDA HAVE FAILED TO DO. YOU SEE, I'M THEIR YOU KNOW, THEIR GATED SUBDIVISIONS ARE CALLED A SAX.
THERE'S NO CONNECTIVITY, SO THESE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE BUILT WITH ONE WAY IN AND ONE WAY OUT, AND THAT ONE WAY IN GENERALLY HAS THE MOST TRAFFIC. THE VILLAGE REALLY HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PLANET'S FUTURE BEFORE THAT DEVELOPMENT COMES TO ENSURE THAT AS NEW DEVELOPMENT OCCURS, IT HELPS BUILD A TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM AND NOT JUST PILE ON TO WHATEVER ROADWAYS CLOSEST TODAY. AND YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHAT MOST OF FLORIDA HAS DONE BECAUSE IT REALLY HASN'T MANY COMMUNITIES HAVE NOT HAD THE FORESIGHT TO DEVELOP A PLAN FOR THE FUTURE.
UM INDIAN TOWN IS FORTUNATE ENOUGH THAT BEFORE GROWTH REALLY STARTS TO TAKE OFF THAT THEY WILL HAVE A GUARDING VISION FOR THAT. NEW DEVELOPMENT. UM, AS WE MENTIONED EARLIER. WE DID LOOK BEYOND JUST THE VILLAGE IN TERMS OF IMPACT. UM, WE EVALUATED THE EXISTING TRAFFIC. AND THE FUTURE TRAFFIC OF ALL COUNTY ROADS AND ALL STATE ROADS ALL THE WAY OUT TO THE TURNPIKE AND ALL THE WAY WITHIN THAT STUDY AREA. AND WHAT WE FOUND IS NOT ONLY TODAY. TO THOSE ROADWAYS HAVE AMPLE CAPACITY. BUT THEY ALSO HAVE CAPACITY ALL THE WAY OUT UNTIL 2045. UM SO THERE WASN'T A NEED TO WIDEN THE MARTIN HIGHWAY TO FOUR LANES OR THE Y DIDN'T ALLAH PATH TO FOUR LANES OR SUCH AS BOULEVARD. BUT WE DID FIND IS THAT WE'RE NEED TO ADD INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS AS SOME OF THOSE ROADWAYS SO LONG BEFORE YOU NEED TO WIDEN MARTIN HIGHWAY OR WIDEN OUT PATH TO WHEN YOU GO TO THE INTERSECTION TODAY. IT'S JUST AN ALWAYS STOP. ALL VEHICLES STOPPED THERE.
THERE ARE NO TURN LANES ON ANY OF THE APPROACHES. IT'S NOT UNREASONABLE TO THINK IN THE FUTURE. YOU MAY NEED A ROUNDABOUT THERE. YOU MAY NEED TURN LANES, YOU MAY NEED A TRAFFIC SIGNAL. LIKEWISE KANNER HIGHWAY OUT AT BRIDGE. AND CITRUS 96. THAT ONE IS PROBABLY GONNA BE MORE SHARE OF THE COUNTY BECAUSE IT'S CLOSER TO THEIR URBANIZED AREA. BUT EVEN SUCH AS BOULEVARD AND WAR FIELD TODAY THERE IS NO TRAFFIC SIGNAL. THERE IS LIMITED TURN
[00:20:01]
LANES THERE. THOSE ARE THE MAIN WAYS INTO AND OUT OF THE VILLAGE. SO WE'RE NOT SAYING THAT DEVELOPMENT HAS NO IMPACT OUTSIDE OF THE VILLAGE. WE'RE RECOGNIZING THAT THERE'S AN IMPACT THAT IMPACT IS TO BOTH COUNTY ROADS AND STATE ROADS SO AS PART OF THE MOBILITY PLAN WE'RE RECOMMENDING SETTING ASIDE ANYWHERE FROM 15 TO 20% OF THE MONEY COLLECTED BY THE VILLAGE.TO AIR MARKET SPECIFICALLY FOR COUNTY PROJECTS. SO IF AND WHEN THERE'S A TURN LANE OR SIGNAL OR ROUNDABOUT WARRANTED AT SOME OF THESE MAJOR COUNTY ROADS OR EVEN THE INTERSECTION OF A COUNTY ROAD IN THE STATE ROAD. THE VILLAGE COULD MAKE A CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS THAT IMPROVEMENT TO OFFSET THE IMPACT OF NEW NEW DEVELOPMENT. SO WHILE THE VILLAGE WILL BE COLLECTING THE MOBILITY FEE IN SPENDING THOSE FUNDS ON IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE VILLAGE. THERE'S ALSO A PROVISION TO SPEND A PORTION OF THOSE FUNDS TO MITIGATE IMPACT TO COUNTY ROADS AS WELL.
SO I MOBILITY FEE ITSELF IS BASED ON THOSE MAPS AND THOSE IMPROVEMENTS. IN AN ESSENCE THE MOBILITY FEE THAT'S COLLECTED FROM NEW DEVELOPMENTS WILL FIND THE PROJECTS IN THE MOBILITY PLAN. UM WHAT I FOUND IN MOST COMMUNITIES. ONCE A VILLAGE ADOPTS THAT MOBILITY PLAN IT THEN IS ADOPTED INTO YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THEN THE NEXT UPDATE OF THE LONG RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLAN. THOSE PLANS ARE LEGALLY REQUIRED TO REFLECT THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SO THOSE PLANS WILL BE ADDED TO THE LONG RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLAN, MAKING THEM ELIGIBLE FOR STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDING. UM UTILITY COMPANIES DO A LOT OF WORK.
COUNTY CITIES D O T S RESURFACED ROADWAYS. NEW PROJECTS COME IN. IN, UH. 13 YEARS OF DOING THIS NOW, I'D SAY THE VAST MAJORITY OF COMMUNITIES I WORK IN. ANYWHERE FROM 35 TO 50% OF THEIR MOBILITY PLANS. ARE FUNDED BY MEANS OTHER THAN MOBILITY FEES. THEY'RE FUNDED BY OPPORTUNITIES FOR GRANTS COMING IN. THEY'RE FUNDED BY NEW DEVELOPMENT COMING IN. THERE'S A PROJECT THAT'S BEING DONE TO RESURFACE A ROADWAY, SO THERE'S IMPROVEMENTS ADDED IN CONJUNCTION WITH IT.
SOME MOBILITY FEE IS JUST ONE OF THE FUNDING SOURCES FOR MOBILITY PLAN. IT'S AN IMPORTANT ONE, AND IT'S HOW NEW DEVELOPMENT MITIGATES ITS IMPACT. BUT IT'S ALSO IMPORTANT THAT THE VILLAGE LAYS OUT A PLAN FOR THE FUTURE BECAUSE THEN IT MAKES IT ELIGIBLE FOR OTHER TYPES OF IMPROVEMENTS. RIGHT NOW. INDIAN TOWN IS LARGELY YOU KNOW, NOT BEING A PART OF THE BIGGER OVERALL PICTURE. A LOT OF THE PLANNING HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON ON STEWART. ON HOPE SOUND ON PORTIONS OF, UM INCORPORATED MARTIN CARNEY OR UNINCORPORATED MARTIN COUNTY, EAST OF 95, IN EAST TO THE TURNPIKE. THIS IS REALLY THE FIRST COMMUNITY WIDE OR VILLAGE WIDE PLAN THAT WILL ACTUALLY BE ADOPTED FOR INDIAN TOWN AND REALLY WILL SET THE STAGE FOR THE FUTURE OF DEVELOPMENT IN THE AREA. AND THESE ARE JUST, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE, UM OPPORTUNITIES I MENTIONED BEFORE THERE ARE A LOT OF WAYS TO FUND MOBILITY PLANS OTHER THAN JUST THROUGH COLLECTION OF THE MOBILITY FEE. SO WHAT ARE MOBILITY FEES? THEY'RE AWAY FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT TO MITIGATE ITS TRANSLATION IMPACT. THEY'RE ASSESSED ONE TIME ON NEW DEVELOPMENT AT THE TIME OF BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATION, AND THEN THEY'RE PAID PRIOR TO A BUILDING PERMIT BEING ISSUED. THEY'RE NOT ATTACKS. THEY'RE NOT AN ASSESSMENT ON EXISTING PROPERTY . THEY DON'T REALLY OCCUR. IF YOU'RE NOT EXPANDING YOUR HOME. YOU'RE NOT EXPANDING YOUR BUSINESS, YOU WOULD NOT BE SUBJECT. TWO OF MOBILITY FEE. IT'S JUST FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT.
AND AS IT'S CURRENTLY STRUCTURED RIGHT NOW, IT WOULD REPLACE THE FEE THAT'S COLLECTED BY MARTIN COUNTY FOR RAILWAY IMPACT. THESE BUT AS THIS VILLAGE AND MARTIN COUNTY GO THROUGH A SERIES OF NEGOTIATIONS YOU KNOW PORTION OF THAT MONEY IS GOING TO BE SET ASIDE FOR COUNTY ROADS AND A MALE SMA END UP BEING A HIGHER PERCENTAGE AS NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN THE TWO GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES WORK THROUGH THEIR PROCESS. BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT WILL CONTINUE TO EVOLVE DYNAMICALLY. UM SO MOBILITY FEEDS THEMSELVES ARE BASED ON THE PROJECTS IN THE MOBILITY PLAN. AND FOR SOME OF THE LARGER ROADWAYS LIKE THE WAR FIELD. UM WHAT'S BEEN FOUND IS THE HIGH DOLLAR PROJECTS. GENERALLY IF THEY'RE GOOD PROJECTS WILL STAY ON A PLAN AND THEY TEND TO ATTRACT STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDS. SO WAR FIELD. YOU KNOW? YES, IT NEEDS SOME IMPROVEMENTS IN THE
[00:25:02]
FUTURE, BUT IT'S ALSO A REGIONAL STRATEGIC INTERMODAL SYSTEM ROADWAY, SO IT'S THE HIGHEST PRIORITY CORRIDOR IN TERMS OF FUNDING FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. AND THEY'RE LIKELY GOING TO FUND A LARGE PORTION OF THAT. UM THE VILLAGE MAY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO INSTEAD OF JUST GETTING A FIVE FT SIDEWALK. CONTRIBUTE SOME FUNDS TO GET EIGHT FT. SHARED USE PATH OR TO GET SOME DECORATIVE LIGHTING CROSSWALKS. OTHER MEN OF THESE THAT IT WOULD NOT NECESSARILY BE ABLE TO GET ON THE STATE ROAD. BUT FOR THE MOST PART, THE WIDENING OF STEROIDS 7 10 WAR FIELD WERE LARGE WOULD BE FUNDED BY THE STATE AND FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. SO WHAT DO THEY DO? ABILITY FEES ARE ASSESSED AT THE TIME OF BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATION.THEY ARE PAID PRIOR TO BUILDING PERMIT. THERE ARE SOME OFFSETS AVAILABLE IF YOU'RE REDEVELOPING AN EXISTING USE. AND HAS BEEN BAKING FOR CERTAIN NUMBER OF YEARS. UM YOU MAY NOT HAVE TO PAY A FEE AT ALL. YOU MAY JUST BE A WASH BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM. IF YOU'VE ACTUALLY BUILT SOME IMPROVEMENTS BEYOND YOUR SITE, ACCESS AND BEYOND SIGHT RELATED IMPROVEMENTS, YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE DEVELOPMENT MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR SOME CREDIT. OR IF THEY WERE TO DEDICATE SOME RIGHT OF WAY OFF SITE FOR AN IMPROVEMENT. THEY MAY ALSO BE ELIGIBLE AS WELL. THE VILLAGES IMPLEMENTING ORDINANCE WILL GO INTO FURTHER DETAIL. ON HOW THEY WOULD OR WOULDN'T BE AVAILABLE TO RECEIVE THE CREDIT. UM IN THE IN TOWN WOULD NOT BE THE FIRST COMMUNITY IN FLORIDA TO ADOPT A MOBILITY FEE. THESE HAVE BEEN IN PLACE SINCE. 2013 OFFICIALLY, SOME COMMUNITIES GO BACK AS FAR AS 2000 AND NINE THERE HAVE BEEN ALTERNATIVE SYSTEMS THAT HAVE BEEN IN PLACE FOR OVER 15 YEARS.
AND THE AREAS THAT YOU SEE IN THE GREEN DOTS. THOSE HAVE A PRECURSOR SYSTEM TO MOBILITY FEES. SO THERE ARE A LOT OF WAYS OF THE LEGISLATURE WAS LOOKING AT. TO MOVE BEYOND ROAD IMPACT FEES AND BEYOND CONCURRENCY. AND AS YOU CAN SEE, THROUGH THE BLUE AND ORANGE STARS, A LOT OF COMMUNITIES ARRIVED THERE ALREADY DEVELOPED THE MOBILITY PLAN OR IN THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPING ONE TODAY. AND SO ANY FEE, WHETHER IT BE THE COUNTY'S ROADWAY IMPACT FEE OR THE VILLAGES. MULTI OUR MOBILITY FEE NEED TO MEET. WHAT'S HONEST, THE DOOR, RATIONAL NEXUS TESTS. SO ONE THERE NEEDS TO BE A NEED FOR IMPROVEMENTS. BASED ON THAT NEW GROWTH. THE MOBILITY PLAN MAPS THAT YOU SEE IDENTIFY THOSE FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A BENEFIT. SO DEVELOPER THAT ACTUALLY PAYS MONEY TO THE VILLAGE IS GOING TO RECEIVE SOME TYPE OF IMPROVEMENT FROM IT. UM WHETHER IT BE A SIDEWALK OR TRANSIT STOP CONNECTED ROADWAY A TURN LANE. THERE ARE GOING TO BE SOME IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE BUILT FROM THOSE FUNDS. LIKEWISE THE COUNTY WOULD NEED TO SHOW THAT DEVELOPMENT THAT PAYS A FEE AND THE VILLAGE TODAY RECEIVE SOME BENEFIT FOR THAT. GIVEN THE SIZE OF THE COUNTY'S BENEFIT DISTRICT , AND THE FACT THAT THE COUNTY DOES NOT HAVE A PLAN BASED SYSTEM. RIGHT NOW. THERE IS NO OBLIGATION THAT THEY SPEND MONEY COLLECTED IN THE VILLAGE IN THE VILLAGE. THERE'S ALSO NO IDENTIFIED IMPROVEMENTS THAT THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TO FUND AS OF RIGHT NOW. SO YOU KNOW THE OPTION OF THE BENEFIT REQUESTS FOR THE BENEFIT TEST. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT ULTIMATELY THE COUNTY NEEDS TO MEET. AS IT RELATES TO ITS OWN FEE. AND THEN ROUGHLY PROPORTIONAL. YOU CAN'T JUST SAY ANY DEVELOPMENT HAS TO PAY OR WHATEVER WE FEEL THE SHOULD PAY IS ACTUALLY A TEST AND DETAILED DATA AND ANALYSIS THAT GOES INTO THE TERMINAL.
WHAT HOUSE PAYS WHAT OUR RETAIL USE PAYS WHAT AN OFFICE PAYS, AND THERE'S A DETAILED TECHNICAL REPORT HAS BEEN PREPARED THAT DOES ALL THAT DOCUMENTATION. AND THIS IS ACTUALLY PART OF IT IS AVAILABLE ON THE VILLAGES WEBSITE IS KNOWN AS THE DRAFT VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN MOBILITY PLAN MOBILITY FEE. NOT GOING TO GO INTO A WHOLE LOT OF THE CALCULATIONS, BUT IT'S 200 PAGES LONG AND THE DOCUMENTS AND DEMONSTRATES HOW THE FEE MEETS BOTH LEGAL REQUIREMENTS. AND REQUIREMENTS PUT IN PLACE BY THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE. SO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF SYSTEMS AS PART OF THE OVERALL MOBILITY PLAN IS WHAT'S KNOWN AS AN ASSESSMENT AREA.
THAT'S WHERE FEES ARE COLLECTED. AND BASED ON THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF, UM FEES AND AREAS IT COULD BE EITHER A GEOGRAPHIC AREA OR A TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT. AND SO THAT THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN ACTUALLY HAS TWO PROPOSED. THERE'S ONE THAT'S FOR ANY DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE VILLAGE,
[00:30:04]
AND THERE'S ANOTHER ONE THAT IF YOU ACTUALLY MEET CRITERIA ESTABLISHED BY THE VILLAGE FOR MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT. YOU WOULD ACTUALLY PAY A LOWER FEE BECAUSE MANY OF YOUR TRIPS ACTUALLY TEND TO OCCUR INTERNALLY TO THAT DEVELOPMENT. IT WAS ALSO ANOTHER AREA STONES A BENEFIT DISTRICT.AND THAT BASICALLY DEFINES WHERE THE FEES ARE SPENT SO ASSESSMENT AREAS TO FIND WHERE THEY ARE COLLECTED. BENEFIT DISTRICTS TO FIND WHERE THEY'RE SPENT. SO RATHER THE ASSESSMENT AREA TODAY THE VILLAGE ONLY HAS AUTHORITY TO ASSESS MOBILITY FEES ON DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE MUNICIPAL LIMITS OF THE VILLAGE. DOES NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO ASSESS A FEE ON DEVELOPMENT AND UNINCORPORATED MARTIN COUNTY. ONLY ON AREAS WITHIN THE VILLAGE TODAY. AS THE VILLAGE ANNEXES IN THE FUTURE. THAT ASSESSMENT AREA IS GOING TO EXPAND SO AS OPPOSED TO HAVING THE UPDATE THE MAP AND ASSESSMENT AREA EVERY TIME AN ANNEXATION. OCCURS. WHAT I'VE DONE FOR A LOT OF FEES IS ESTABLISHED THE AREA BOUNDARIES TODAY. BUT THEN ALSO RECOGNIZE WHAT AREAS LIKELY TO BE EXPANDED IN THE FUTURE. AND SO IN FIVE YEARS FROM NOW IN THE VILLAGE GOES TO UPDATE THIS PLAN. ANY NEW AREAS THAT ARE ANNEXED. THE AREA IN GREEN WILL BE EXPANDED. BUT THIS REALLY ENSURES THAT AS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN, THE VILLAGE DOESN'T HAVE TO GO AN EXCESS OR AMEND THIS FOR EVERY SINGLE PARCEL. IT'S ALREADY BASICALLY SAID ONCE YOU COME INTO THE VILLAGE, YOU WILL BE ASSESSED A MOBILITY FEE IF YOU'RE NEW DEVELOPMENT UM, THE MIXED USE. THAT'S BASED ON DESIGN STANDARDS, SO IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT'S MAPPED. IT'S REALLY BASED ON A DEVELOPER ACTUALLY MEETING SPECIFIC CRITERIA. LARGELY IT'S A DEVELOPMENT. IT'S EITHER MIXED WITH THE RETAIL ON THE BOTTOM. AND RESIDENTIAL ABOVE OR THEIR WALL WITHIN A COMPACT COMMUNITY WHERE PEOPLE CAN WALK AND BIKE WITHOUT HAVING TO GO EXTERNAL TO THE DEVELOPMENT. AND THAT WILL REALLY BE SOMETHING PREDICATED ON THE VILLAGE, DEVELOPING ADDITIONAL CRITERIA AND APPROVING SOMEBODY FOR MIXED USE PROJECT AND QUALIFYING THEM FOR A LOWER FEE. THE OTHER COMPONENT IS WHAT'S KNOWN AS A BENEFIT DISTRICT. THIS MEANS THE SECOND PART OF THE DUAL RATIONAL NEXUS TEST. AND WE HAVE THREE PROPOSE, THERE'S ONE TO THE NORTHEAST OF WAR FIELD. ONE TO THE SOUTHWEST OF WAR FIELD. AND THIS SERGEANT ENSURES, ESPECIALLY FOR THE SIDEWALK PROJECT IN SMALLER PROJECTS THAT NEW DEVELOPMENT IN THOSE AREAS. SPEND IT, UM IN THOSE TWO DISTRICTS. THERE WILL BE PROVISIONS IN THE ORDINANCE THAT WILL SAY, YOU KNOW, THIS COMMUNITY IS RELATIVELY COMPACT, SO PEOPLE GO ACROSS WAR FIELD BOULEVARD FAIRLY FREQUENTLY. AND THERE MAY BE SOME INSTANCE WHERE THERE'S GOING TO BE AN IMPROVEMENT THAT'S NEEDED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE DISTRICT.
THERE IS A NEED TO PULL FUNDS TO MAKE IT IMPROVEMENT. SO THE ORDINANCE WILL ESTABLISH CRITERIA TO BASICALLY MAKE SURE THAT THE VILLAGE MAKES A FINDING. THAT THIS IMPROVEMENT BENEFITS BOTH DISTRICTS. UM AND THIS IS REALLY JUST A TEST TO MAKE SURE THAT WHERE THE MONEY SPENT OR WHERE THE MONEY IS COLLECTED, IS WHERE THE MONEY IS SPENT. BROADER DEAL WITH THE COUNTY SET ASIDE FOR ANY FUNDS THAT ARE SET ASIDE BY THE VILLAGE. MOST OF THOSE INTERSECTIONS ARE FURTHER OUT. AND SO THIS ALLOWS THE VILLAGE TO USE THOSE FUNDS. TO MAKE AN IMPROVEMENT OUTSIDE OF VILLAGE LIMITS. AND THAT'S REALLY JUST ENSURING THAT THE DUAL RATIONAL NEXUS TEST UM IS IT HERE TOO, AND ADDRESSED WITH PROVISION THAT IF MONEY SHARED BETWEEN DISTRICTS THERE'S JUST A FINDING THAT IT PROVIDES A BENEFIT TO BOTH. AND SO, WITH ALL THAT SAID , THIS IS THE DRAFT MOBILITY FEE. AND THERE'S A NUMBER OF USES WHILE THEY BE RESIDENTIAL.
UM INSTITUTIONAL SUCH AS A PLACE OF WORSHIP, ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY OR EDUCATIONAL, UM, INDUSTRIAL USES RECREATIONAL USES. THERE IS A UNIT OF MEASURE THAT DETERMINES HOW THE FEE IS CALCULATED. AND THEN THERE'S THE ACTUAL MOBILITY FEE ITSELF. AND AS YOU SEE, THIS SHOWS THE TWO ASSESSMENT AREAS SO YOU HAVE ONE UM, THE MOBILITY FEE. IS TO THE LEFT. AND THEN FOR MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT. YOU'LL SEE THAT FEE IS A LITTLE BIT LOWER. AND SO IT'S ALREADY DETERMINED THAT A MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT HAS LESS OF AN IMPACT. IF THE VILLAGE QUALIFIES SOMEBODY TO MEET THE MIXED USE CRITERIA, THEN THERE WOULD BE ELIGIBLE TO POTENTIALLY GET THAT LOWER MOBILITY FEE. BUT
[00:35:02]
THAT WOULD REQUIRE SEPARATE APPROVAL BY THE VILLAGE BEFORE SOMEBODY COULD ACTUALLY QUALIFY FOR THAT LOWER FEE. I LIKEWISE OF MOBILITY FEE EXTENDS TO OFFICE USES. RETAIL USES INTO SOME OF THE HIGH GENERATING USES SUCH AS BANK DRIVE THROUGHS. UM, UM, FOR GAS STATIONS, AND PROBABLY ONE OF THE BIGGEST GENERATORS IS DRIVE THRU LANES FOR FAST FOOD. AND THOSE REALLY THE OUT OF THE FEES. THOSE CATEGORIES HAVE THE HIGHEST IMPACT. SO THEY WOULD PAY A HIGHER MOBILITY FEE. CORRECT. CORRECT. AND THE TECHNICAL REPORT OF SOUTH GOES INTO FURTHER DETAIL ON EACH ONE OF THESE CATEGORIES. AND SO JUST FOR COMPARATIVE PURPOSES SINCE THIS FEE IS PROPOSED TO REPLACE MARTIN COUNTY'S FEE. WE WANTED TO SHOW HOW IT RELATES TO THE COUNTY'S FEE IN TERMS OF OVERALL CALCULATION. NOW MARTIN COUNTY'S FEE WAS LAST UPDATED IN 2016. SO IT'S SIX YEARS OLD AS OF TODAY, AND THEY ARE LOOKING TO UPDATE IT. BY THE TIME THEY UPDATED, THE DATA WILL PROBABLY ROUGHLY SEVEN YEARS OLD. SO TO KIND OF GIVE AN APPLES TO APPLES COMPARISON. WE'VE APPLIED, UH, INFLATION FACTOR OF 2.5% PER YEAR BECAUSE THE VILLAGES FEE IS BASED ON $2022. NOT 2016, SO THE REALLY PROVIDE A MORE ACCURATE COMPARISON BETWEEN THE TWO YOU SEE THE MOBILITY FEE? UM, FOR THE VILLAGE AND THEN ALSO THE COUNTY'S FEE OF WHAT IT WOULD BE HAD IT BEEN ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION. AND THE VERY TOP USE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT A LOT OF COMMUNITIES ARE ARE DEALING WITH AND STRUGGLING WITH. UM IT'S FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING, ATTAINABLE HOUSING AND WORKFORCE HOUSING. AND WHAT WE'VE DONE, AND I'VE DONE THIS IN SEVERAL OTHER COMMUNITIES. UM IS AN ESTABLISHED AND CALCULATED A FEE UP FRONT. BUT THEN THE VILLAGE ITSELF WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE TO ESTABLISH A SEPARATE PROCESS FOR SOMEBODY TO QUALIFY FOR AFFORDABLE SO IT DOESN'T JUST SOMEBODY COMING INTO THE BURBLING PERMIT DEPARTMENT SAYING I'M AFFORDABLE. I WANT TO PAY LOWER FEE, BUT THIS GIVES THE VILLAGE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SAY. IF YOU MEET THESE CRITERIA IN TERMS OF THIS MUCH OF INCOME OR YOUR FUNDING TRANS THAT YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO RESIDENTS OR TO LOWER THE COST OF HOUSING.AND ALLOWS THE VILLAGE WITHOUT HAVING TO GO DO A STUDY OR TO HAVE SOMEBODY GO DO A SEPARATE STUDY TO GET A LOWER FEE SAYS IT'S ALREADY BEEN CALCULATED FOR YOU. AND SO IF YOU WANT TO CALCULATE THAT PROGRAM OR ESTABLISHED A PROGRAM YOU CAN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO. YOU DON'T HAVE TO. UM BUT REALLY, IT'S SOMETHING THAT A LOT OF COMMUNITIES HAVE FOUND AS BEN DIABLE TO HAVE THAT OPTION AND THAT FLEXIBILITY AND AGAIN, THE TECHNICAL REPORT GOES INTO A LOT OF DETAIL, BUT, UM, YOU KNOW, IN GENERAL UM, THE. VILLAGES FEES ARE COMING AT ROUGHLY THE INDEXED INFLATION. OTHER COUNTIES RATE OR A LITTLE BIT HIGHER. UM BUT FOR THE MOST PART , THEY'RE FAIRLY IN LINE WITH THE COUNTY'S EXISTING FEAST TODAY. SOME OF THEM ARE A LITTLE BIT HIGHER. SOME OF THEM ARE A LITTLE BIT LOWER. IT'S REALLY JUST BASED ON THE METHODOLOGY AND THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS. AND AGAIN WE JUST WENT THROUGH THIS COMPARISON FOR ALL THE DIFFERENT CATEGORIES, UM, WITHIN THE VILLAGES FEE AND COMPARING IT TO THE COUNTY. UM AND I ALSO WILL KNOW THERE'S ANOTHER ONE. UM I'M DOING THIS IN SEVERAL COMMUNITIES AS WELL. AND THIS IS LARGELY AN IDEA THAT CAME OUT OF COVID. IS TO HAVE A SMALL RETAIL BUSINESS CATEGORY. MOSUL THE DATA THAT WE HAVE TRIP GENERATION WISE IMPACT WISE IS FOR RETAILERS, CHAIN OR NATIONAL USE ON THERE'S NOT A WHOLE AS MUCH INFORMATION AVAILABLE ON LOCAL BUSINESSES. BUT A LOT OF COMMUNITIES ESTABLISHED PROGRAMS TO QUALIFY FOR SMALL BUSINESSES FOR FUNDING OR LOANS OR FOUR LEAF THROUGH THE COVID PROGRAM. AND THOSE ACTUALLY ESTABLISHED A REAL GOOD BASIS OF SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESS SO AGAIN SIMILAR TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING, WE'VE CALCULATED THE FEE UP FRONT.
THAT AFTER VILLAGE WANTED TO ESTABLISH CRITERIA. TO QUALIFY A SMALL RETAIL BUSINESS OR A SMALL LOCAL BUSINESS. IT COULD DO SO. AGAIN NOBODY CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT LOWER FEE WITHOUT BEING QUALIFIED BY THE VILLAGE. BUT IF YOU'RE TRYING TO ENCOURAGE A CERTAIN TYPE OF USE OR A CERTAIN
[00:40:07]
TYPE OF LOCAL BUSINESS THAT ALLOWS THE VILLAGE TO DO THAT WITHOUT HAVING TO GO OUT AND UPDATE THE STUDY OR REQUIRE THE APPLICANT TO UPDATE THE STUDY, WHICH YOU KNOW COULD RANGE ANYWHERE FROM 25 TO $50,000 AND DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF DEVELOPMENT, SO IT'S A REAL TIME SAVINGS AND A REAL COST SAVINGS. TO HAVE THIS CALCULATED UPFRONT. AND SO YOU KNOW, THERE ARE PROVISIONS WITHIN FLORIDA STATUTE RELATED TO EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES. WE REALLY FEEL THAT THIS IS A NEW FEE FROM THE VILLAGE WOULD BE REPLACING THE COUNTY'S FEE. IT'S RIGHT. THE FIRST TIME OF THE VILLAGE WOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP ITS OWN FEE. UM BUT JUST IN GENERAL, SOME OF THE FACTORS THAT ARE CREATING THIS NEED, UM THE COUNTY LAST UPDATED ITS FEE AND IN 2016. THIS IS BEFORE THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN WAS EVEN FOUNDED OFFICIALLY AS A MUNICIPALITY. UM THERE HAVE BEEN TWO TRIP GENERATION MANUAL UPDATES AND THE COUNTY LAST UPDATED ITS FEE. THERE'S BEEN UPDATES TO THE NATIONAL TRAVEL SURVEY, WHICH SHOWS TRAVEL LENGTH. AND VARIOUS TYPES OF TRAVEL PER USE THAT WAS UPDATED SINCE THE COUNTY LASTED ITS FEE.THE COMMUNITY'S METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION, HAS UPDATED THIS LONG RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLAN. AND THIS REALLY IS THE FIRST VILLAGE DEPENDENT FEE. SO THE VILLAGE DOES ALSO PROJECT A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT 22 YEARS. SO THERE ARE THESE ARE ALL FACTORS THAT GO INTO THE VILLAGE NINE, DOING ITS BUT ALSO JUSTIFYING THE FEE AND ITS CALCULATIONS. SO THE NEXT STEPS UM WE'VE ACTUALLY RECEIVED A LOT OF GREAT FEEDBACK THIS MORNING. UM, EARLIER TODAY ON THE MOBILITY PLAN, WE HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS REGARDING THE PROJECTS. UM MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY WILL HAVE OPPORTUNITIES AS WE GO TO THE PLANNING ZONING BOARD, UM, TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK, THE HOSPITAL TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK TO THE VILLAGE BETWEEN THAT TIME. AND BEFORE IT GOES TO THE CITY COUNCIL, SO WE ARE LOOKING FOR ANY TYPE OF COMMUNITY FEEDBACK ON THE PROJECTS WE'VE IDENTIFIED. ON THE STUDY AREA ON THE USES BASICALLY ANYTHING THAT WE'VE PREPARED IF THERE'S SOME COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM. BUT BEFORE WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS, THERE DOES NEED TO BE A FIRST READING OF THE ORDINANCE TO IMPLEMENT THE MOBILITY FEE. AT THAT TIME COUNCIL CAN DIRECT STAFF TO MAKE ADDITIONAL CHANGES OR ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE PLAN AND FEE. THEN I WOULD GO TO A SECOND READING. AND THEN UPON THAT SECOND READING IF THE COUNCIL ELECTS TO ADOPT IT THE FEE WOULD GO AND PLACE 90 DAYS LATER. UM THERE ARE TWO POTENTIAL TIME PERIODS. THE 90 DAY NOTICE PERIOD CAN EITHER START AT THE FIRST READING OF THE ORDINANCE. OR CAN START UPON ADOPTION. UM IT REALLY DEPENDS ON THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT WILL BE DISCUSSED FURTHER WITH THE VILLAGES, LEGAL COUNSEL AND WE'RE ALSO RECOMMENDING THAT THE FEES BE INDEXED FOR INFLATION. SO THE ORDINANCE AND STATUE REQUIRES THESE TO BE BASED ON THE MOST RECENT AND LOCALIZED DATA, SO EVERY 4 TO 5 YEARS OF VILLAGE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT REDOING THIS FEE. THE NEXT GO AROUND WON'T BE A SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE YOU KNOW NOTHING'S ESTABLISHED TODAY. FIVE YEARS FROM NOW, YOU REALLY WILL JUST BE UPDATING THE PLAN, UPDATING THE FACTORS. THAT GO INTO THE FEAR ITSELF. NF INFLATION'S ACCOUNTED FOR ACCURATELY. THERE WON'T BE A SIGNIFICANT BUMP UP FIVE YEARS INTO THE FUTURE. AND WITH THAT, THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

Question & Answers
]SO THERE'S ANY MEMBERS OF THE AUDIENCE THAT HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR ANY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY THAT ARE ON ZOOM. WITH US HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. YES HOWARD BROWN, UH, VILLAGE MANAGER, JUST OBSERVATION AND MAYBE A CLARIFICATION. I KNOW YOU MENTIONED MR PAUL. THAT OR ON THE MOBILITY FEED AS IT RELATES TO THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMPONENT. UM YOU KNOW, THERE'S BEEN A CHALLENGE HERE IN ANY TOWN BECAUSE SOME OF THE PROJECTS SOME OF THE DEVELOPMENTS THAT ARE BEING BUILT FOR HABITAT, THEY'VE HEARD COMPLAINTS AT A AT A RECENT COUNTY MEETING THAT UH, ALMOST MAY. IT UP TO BUILD HABITAT HOME IN AREAS THAT YOU KNOW THEY WOULD DO THAT. BUT THIS THIS PROPOSAL THAT YOU'RE YOU'RE RECOMMENDING WHAT WOULD HELP IN[00:45:06]
THAT RESPECT. THE COUNCIL. CAN CREATE. A SEPARATE POLICY. AND ON DEALING IMPACT FEES OR MOBILITY FEED. HAS RELEASED TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING, RIGHT? ABSOLUTELY OKAY, AND, UM AND THEN THE SECOND THING I'D LIKE TO JUST SAY IS THE ANOTHER POLICY THAT DEALS WITH SMALL BECAUSE. WILL BE SMALL RETAIL AND THE COUNCIL CAN AGAIN CREATE A SEPARATE POLICY THAT WILL ADDRESS MOBILITY FEE FOR SMALL RETAIL AND THEY CAN DEFINE WHAT SMALL RETAIL IS, IF IT'S LESS THAN 20,000 SQUARE FEET OR WHATEVER THEY MAY BE. AND YOU CAN ALSO, YOU KNOW DIFFERENT CRITERIA IN TERMS OF WHETHER IT'S LOW. BUSINESS OR. GIVES THE VILLAGE OF AUTHORITY TO RESPOND TO ITS COMMUNITY. AND UH, AND S DEVELOPMENT AND SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN WE USED TO HAVE A USED TO CALL IT A LOCAL CATEGORY. UM OR SMALL, BUT THEN THERE'S OFTEN TIMES A LOT OF DEBATE ON WHAT THAT WAS. AND WHAT WE FOUND IS, UM, YOU KNOW THE COVID. RIGHT, PROUD OF SOME REALLY GOOD EXAMPLES BECAUSE COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE STATE WERE ABLE TO ESTABLISH CRITERIA. EVEN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WAS ABLE TO ESTABLISH CRITERIA OF WHAT THE FIND THE SMALL BUSINESS OR A SMALL LOCAL USE. UM AND THAT REALLY WORKS OUT WELL, AND IT ALLOWS THE VILLAGE TO BE RESPONSIVE. UM TO THAT TYPE OF USE THAT IT MAY WANT TO INCENTIVIZE PROMOTE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. AND LASTLY, THE FEES . UH THE FEE THE MOBILITY FEED BEING ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION.YOU KNOW WHAT? WHAT INFLATIONARY MEASURE. WOULD YOU BE USING WHAT HE'D BE USING THE C P I FOR NATIONALS, URBAN OR SOUTHERN UNITED STATES, OR WOULD YOU BE USING A HYBRID APPROACH OR OR OR A DIFFERENT MODEL ALTOGETHER. ON WHAT C P I IS. CAN YOU EXPLAIN THAT? ACTUALLY WHAT THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION HAS DONE A GREAT JOB. THEY USED TO BE A LAGGING INDICATOR. SO IT WAS PREVIOUS. INFLATION SO IT'S A LITTLE BIT BEHIND. BUT THE LAST FEW YEARS THEY PUBLISHED FORECAST INFLATION IN TEXAS. THEY'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR OVER 20 YEARS NOW AND A FORECAST IT OUT THREE OR FOUR YEARS. SO DEPENDING ON WHATEVER THE DATE WE BRING THIS BACK FOR ORDINANCE , WAR, ESTABLISH A THRESHOLD AND USUALLY I LIKE TO SAY JANUARY 1ST OF EACH YEAR BECAUSE IT'S A NEW CALENDAR YEAR. UM YOU KNOW, NOBODY'S APPLYING FOR A BUILDING PERMIT THAT DAY, AND SO GENERALLY D O. T PUBLISHES THESE INFLATION INDEXES. IN JULY OR AUGUST. UM SO THE VILLAGE WOULD LOOK AT WHAT THAT INFLATION NUMBER IS. IT'S BASED ON CONSTRUCTION COSTS. THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ON EVERY SINGLE PROJECT. I DO THEY COLLECT DATA EVERYWHERE STATEWIDE, SO THEY HAVE A REALLY GOOD FEEL FOR WHAT REAL TIME INFLATION IS ON A ROADWAY AND SIDEWALKS AND BIKE LANES AND ALL MULTIMODAL IMPROVEMENTS. AND SO THEY WOULD PUBLISH THAT THE VILLAGE WOULD LOOK AT IT. THEY WOULD UPDATE IT AND GENERALLY IT'S YOU KNOW. THIS TIME. IT MAY BE A LITTLE BIT HIGHER, BUT, YOU KNOW, HISTORICALLY, IT'S RANGE ANYWHERE FROM 2.5 TO 3.5. SO THE VILLAGE WOULD ESSENTIALLY APPLY THAT FACTOR. PUBLISHERS NUMBERS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30TH OF THAT YEAR AND THEN THEY WERE GOING TO AFFECT JANUARY 1ST OF THE NEXT YEAR, SO LET'S SAY THIS IS ADOPTED. YOU KNOW THIS SUMMER AND GOES INTO EFFECT IN OCTOBER. YOU CERTAINLY COULD. INDEX IT FOR INFLATION FOR 2023, BUT MOST LIKELY WOULD STAR IS THE FOLLOWING YEAR IN 2023, YOU WOULD ADJUST IT FOR INFLATION FROM THAT TIME AND THEN 2024 2025 2026. THAT NEW FEE WOULD GO INTO EFFECT EACH YEAR. UM, IT'S SOMETHING THAT I'VE DONE. AND ALMOST ALL THE FEES THAT I WORK ON, AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN SUCCESSFUL. UM AND WHEN YOU'RE UPDATING THESE FIVE YEARS IN THE FUTURE TO ACCEPT EVERYTHING'S HAVE INCREASED. YOU KNOW, IT HELPS TO THE AUTHENTIC STICKER SHOCK. UM AND SORT OF KEEPS UP WITH BOTH INFLATION. BROTHEL INSURERS, YOU KNOW, IN THE FUTURE. ROY YOU'RE YOU'RE INCREASES ARE MINOR COMPARED TO HAVE YOU NOT DONE ANYTHING? DURING THAT TIME FRAME, WHICH YOU KNOW THE ANSWER IS MARTIN COUNTY GOES THROUGH HIS PROCESS THAT HAS AN INDEX. IT'S FEES FOR INFLATION. IT MAY SEE SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW A PRETTY BIG BUMP UP SIX YEARS LATER. UM BUT THAT'S REALLY WHY I RECOMMEND TO ALL MY LOCAL GOVERNMENT CLIENTS TO ADOPT AN INFLATION FACTOR. RIGHT NOW. YOU KNOW WHERE, YES. ACCORDING TO YOUR STATISTIC. 9.E
[00:50:14]
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS HAVE EVEN DONE IS THEY'VE ESTABLISHED MAXIMUM CAPS IN THE ORDINANCE, SO NOT TO EXCEED 3.5% PER YEAR. SO YOU KNOW, IF YOU DID HAVE A REAL BIG BUMP UP, THEN YOU COULD AVERAGE IT OVER A FEW YEARS, SO IT'S NOT UM, BUT ULTIMATELY, THAT WOULD BE A COUNCIL. AND DECISION ON THAT. I WILL SAY, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE OF D O T CLUCK STATEWIDE DATA. EVEN WE SAW THE BIG RUN UP. BEFORE THE GREAT RECESSION. YOU KNOW, THE STILL CAME IN? MAYBE IT WAS ABOUT 4% 5% BUT IT DIDN'T SEE THE LARGE SEATTLE CP. I INFLECTION BECAUSE RAILWAYS. WHY DO TEND TO GO UP SOME? THEY'RE NOT AS GREAT AS SOME OF THE OTHER FACTORS THAT ARE OUT THERE.THANK YOU, MR JONATHAN. UM SO A FEW QUESTIONS IN REGARDS OF THIS. THIS WOULD BE SETTING THE PLAN FOR THE WHOLE VILLAGE OF ANTON CORRECT. SO THIS PLAN WHAT HAPPENS WITH LIKE YOU DID SAY THAT THIS WOULD BE SETTING LIKE A PRESIDENT IN REGARDS OF NEW DEVELOPMENT WILL BE ABLE TO, YOU KNOW, DETERMINE OUR FUTURE IN REGARD TO THAT. BUT WHAT HAPPENS WITH ACTUAL UM CURRENT AH, INFRASTRUCTURE WHERE WE DO NEED TO UPDATE LIKE OUR OUR OUR SIDEWALKS AND ROADS. UM ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I DO SEE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE ON BICYCLES. SO I THINK THAT BICYCLE LANES IS A MUST, ESPECIALLY IN CERTAIN AREAS WHERE THERE'S HIGH DEMAND LIKE SEMINAL, SIMILAR, UM. IS IT SOME NOISE, SIMILAR DRIVE A STREET BUT SIMILAR DRIVE. UM SO HOW DO WE GO ABOUT WITH THAT? AND THEN? UM THAT'S THE FIRST AND THE SECOND IS MONEY. UM ONCE WE SET THIS PLAN UP, WE WOULD PASS IT AND EVERYTHING. UM HOW DO WE DO FEDERAL? BECAUSE I KNOW I JUST WENT TO A CONFERENCE AND FEDERAL MONEY IS OUT THERE, ESPECIALLY FOR TRANSPORTATION. YOU KNOW, THERE'S UM IT CHANGES ON A DAILY BASIS. AND I THINK THAT ONCE WE HAVE THIS MOBILITY PLAN IN PLACE, IS THERE ANY OPPORTUNITIES WHERE WE CAN GO OUT TO PAY FOR, UM FOR UPDATING OUR MOBILITY OR OUR INFRASTRUCTURE AROUND HERE? UM, THOSE ARE GREAT QUESTIONS. UM SO ON THE FIRST PART THE MOBILITY PLAN COVERS BOTH EXISTING ROADS AND FUTURE RAILWAY. SO THE EXISTING RAILWAY NETWORK WE'VE LOOKED TO PROVIDE BICYCLE LANES OR COMPLETE STREET IMPROVEMENTS, WHICH COULD EITHER BE TRAFFIC CALMING. BICYCLE LANES OR WIDENING EXISTING SIDEWALKS. THE PATHWAYS WE'VE INCLUDED EXISTING GAPS IN THE NETWORK. UM SO WHERE YOU HAVE A LOCAL ROAD THAT A SEGMENTS MISSING CONSTRUCTIVE PORTION OF THAT ALSO IDENTIFIED EXISTING SIDEWALKS THAT ARE MISSING SO THAT THEY COULD ACTUALLY, UH ADDRESS THOSE SIDEWALKS AS WELL SO THAT THE PLAN ADDRESSES BOTH EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE AND FUTURE INFRASTRUCTURE. SO IT'S NOT JUST NEW DEVELOPMENT AND NEW ROADS.
IT'S ALSO RETROFITTING. WHAT'S ALREADY ON THE GROUND TODAY. THE PLANS ACTUALLY. BELIEVE THERE IS ALWAYS. OVER 100 PROJECTS, MAYBE UPWARDS TO 120, WHICH I'LL BE HONEST. WHEN I FIRST STARTED THIS, I THOUGHT MAYBE THERE'D BE LIKE 30. UM AND THEN ONCE I STARTED DIGGING INTO THE COMMUNITY, THERE WAS JUST, YOU KNOW. NOT SIGNIFICANT, ALL OF THEM, BUT I MEAN, ONCE YOU GET DOWN TO THE MOBILITY LEVEL AND YOU'RE LOOKING AT SIDEWALK GAPS AND THEN NETWORK EVEN ONE STREET OR ONE BLOCK THAT'S MISSING. THAT'S A PROJECT. UM SO THAT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT IS INCLUDED IN THERE. IN ADDITION TO THE MAP PROJECTS WE ALSO HAVE SEVERAL PROGRAMS SUCH AS SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL TRAFFIC, CALMING TRANSIT STOPS, NEIGHBORHOOD CIRCULATORS, THOSE THINGS AREN'T NECESSARILY EASILY MAPPED. BUT WE HAVE SAID, YOU KNOW, THERE ARE GOING TO BE SOME THINGS THAT WE'VE MISSED. YOU KNOW, THERE ARE SOME GAPS IN THE SIDEWALK NETWORK OR BIKE LANE NETWORK. THAT AS YOU GO THROUGH THE PROCESS YOU MAY IDENTIFY WE'VE GIVEN A MILEAGE TO IT WERE GIVEN THE CAPACITY SO WE HAVE A LEGAL BASIS TO SPEND MONEY ON IT. SO YOU CAPTURE NOT ONLY WHAT'S IN THE MAP, BUT YOU ALSO HAVE ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS. TO CAPTURE OTHER IMPROVEMENTS AS WELL. I WILL SAY ONCE YOU ADOPT THIS IN THE MANUAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO INCORPORATE THIS INTO IT. ONCE THIS PARTIER CONFERENCE AND PLANNING ONCE IT'S ADOPTED. AT THAT POINT, REALLY, THE MPO
[00:55:06]
RECOGNIZES THAT AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S GENERALLY RECOGNIZED BEING ELIGIBLE FOR STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDING. BUT WHAT YOU WANT IS YOUR STAFF TO ACTUALLY APPROACH THE METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION TO HAVE THESE PROJECTS INCORPORATED INTO THEIR LONG RANGE PLAN, AND THAT MAKES HIM ELIGIBLE FOR A LOT OF STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDING. OKAY? CORRECT AS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN, THEY PAY A MOBILITY FEE AND THERE WILL BE TWO ACCOUNTS ESTABLISHED WILL BE ONE EAST AND WEST OR NORTH EAST SOUTH WEST OF WAR FIELD BOULEVARD. THEY'LL PAY THAT INTO THAT, AND THEN EACH YEAR AS PART OF YOUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM. YOU'LL SAY WE HAVE COLLECTED SO MUCH MONEY . WE HAVE THESE PROJECTS THAT WE'D LIKE TO PRIORITIZE. WE PROJECT THAT WE'RE GOING TO COLLECT THIS MUCH ADDITIONAL FUNDS, SO BASICALLY EVERY YEAR YOU KNOW, WE SORT OF HAVE RANKED THE PROJECTS AND FIVE YEAR WINDOWS. BUT EVERY YEAR, THE COUNCIL AT ITS JUST, YOU KNOW ANY OF THE PROJECTS THAT ARE IDENTIFIED ON THERE. YOU CAN RANK THEM. OR PRIORITIZE THEM HOW YOU WANT TO WITH GENERALLY HAVE SAID, AT LEAST OUR RECOMMENDATION IS MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AT LEAST SOMETHING ON OIL ROADS, SIDEWALKS OR BIKE LANE OR SOMETHING. SO YOU HAVE A COMPLETE NETWORK. THEN ONCE YOU GET THERE, THEN YOU CAN START ADDING THE SHARED USE PATHS OR THE OTHER FACILITIES. BUT ULTIMATELY THAT WILL BE YOUR DECISION AS AN ELECTED BODY, UM , TO MAKE THOSE PRIORITY DECISIONS AND THEN AS GAS TAX ARE OTHER FUNDS BECOME AVAILABLE OR STATE AND FEDERAL REVENUES OR DEVELOPMENT COMES IN. UM YOU KNOW, YOU CAN ADD THOSE ADDITIONAL PROJECTS TO YOUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM OR AS A NEW PROJECT COMES IN. YOU CAN SAY YOU KNOW ONE. YOU KNOW, WHATEVER YOUR SITE REQUIREMENTS ARE THAT'S INTERNAL TO YOUR SITE. REVIEW TO BUILD US SOMETHING OFF SITE SAY THERE'S A GAP IN THE SIDEWALK NETWORK OR GAP IN THE BIKE NETWORK. IF YOU GO BEYOND YOUR SIGHT. YOU THEN HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO OFFER THEM CREDIT. SO THEY CAN BUILD THAT INFRASTRUCTURE WHILE THEY'RE DEVELOPING. AS OPPOSED TO YOU GETTING PAID THE FEE. THEN GOING IN DESIGNING IT. WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE ENOUGH MONEY COLLECTED DEVELOPER CAN DO IT DO IT QUICKLY. AND YOU GIVE THEM CREDIT FORWARD OR IF THEY DID A BIG IMPROVEMENT. SIMILAR HOW YOU MAY DO WATER AND UTILITY UPSIZING. YOU CAN EVEN SAY OKAY, WELL, IF YOU DO THIS BIG IMPROVEMENT FOR US WE'RE GOING TO SET ASIDE FUNDS FROM THIS AREA AND WILL REIMBURSE YOU OVER TIME FOR THAT, SO THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT WAYS TO WORK WITH THE MOBILITY FEE. AS IT RELATES TO NEW DEVELOPMENT AND AS YOU PROGRAM OKAY. AND THEN LET ME JUST STATE. MY NAME COUNCILWOMAN JANET HERNANDEZ LIVING HERE IN INDIAN TOWN. UM CAN YOU GO AND IN THE SLIDES, IT SAYS THERE'S LIKE A PICTURE OF NORTHWEST SOUTHWEST. IS THAT THE SECTION WHERE YOU'RE SAYING WHERE UM, FOR EXAMPLE, IF THERE'S UH HOW WILL THAT BE DIVIDED, SO IF THERE'S A DEVELOPMENT COMING IN ON THE SOUTHWEST, THAT MONEY WOULD BE ONLY ALLOCATED TO THE SOUTHWEST AREA. WHAT DO WE BE? IS THERE WOULD BE TWO FUNDING ACCOUNTS, SO IT'LL BE A SOUTHWEST AND NORTHEAST. IN GENERAL, YOU'D LIKE TO KEEP THOSE FUNDS THERE. BUT THERE WILL BE A PROVISION IN THE ORDINANCE BECAUSE I MEAN, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY TRAVEL THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. WHAT THE ORDINANCE WILL SAY IS IF YOU WANT TO SPEND MONEY FROM THE SOUTHWEST IN THE NORTHEAST. YOU JUST HAVE TO MAKE BECAUSE PART OF THIS IS THERE'S STATE REQUIREMENTS THAT ALL THESE FUNDS COLLECTED AND EXPENDED OR AUDITED EVERY YEAR. SO IF YOU'RE GOING TO SPEND MONEY FROM ONE DISTRICT IN ANOTHER IT'S JUST SAYING TO MAKE A FACTUAL FINDING THAT, YOU KNOW. A CROSSING MLK. YOU KNOW PEOPLE ON BOTH, AND MAYBE THERE'S AN EXTENSION TO THE NORTHEAST. BOTH SIDES OF THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FROM THAT BOTH SIDES WILL USE IT. YOU KNOW, THIS MOBILITY BENEFIT EXTENDS TO BOTH DISTRICTS. THEREFORE, WE'RE USING FUNDS FROM BOTH OF THEM. SO IT'S REALLY JUST A WAY TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE GENERALLY KEEPING THOSE FUNDS THERE. BUT IF YOU MAKE AN IMPROVEMENT, OR YOU NEED TO PULL IMPROVEMENTS SAYING TO TAKE THE EXTRA STEP. JUST DOCUMENT. WHAT IS IT THAT YOU'RE DOING? AND THIS IS ACTUALLY A, UM SO AS PART OF THIS FUNDING OF THIS PROJECT. A PORTION OF IT IS FUNDED BY THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY. THIS WAS ACTUALLY A RECOMMENDATION FROM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. BECAUSE WE HAD SIDEWALK PROJECTS AND BIKE PROJECTS. UM SO AND REALLY, IT IS SOMETHING THAT I'M DOING IN, UM AND I THINK THIS IS A FABULOUS IDEA OF KEEPING[01:00:05]
SOUTHWEST NORTHEAST BECAUSE YOU CAN ACTUALLY YOU KNOW YOU CAN. WHATEVER PART OF MONEY IS IN SOUTHWEST SPENDING THE SOUTHWEST AND WHATEVER USE YOU HAVE IN THE NORTHEAST HUSBAND IN THE NORTHEAST BECAUSE THEN YOU HAVE YOU HAVE DIFFERENT PROJECTS THAT YOU CAN YOU CAN FIND, INSTEAD OF JUST FOCUSING ON JUST ONE PROJECT, YOU'LL HAVE TWO DIFFERENT PROJECTS THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY GO AHEAD AND YOU WANT YOUR COMMUNITY WON'T FEEL LIKE YOU'RE NEGLECTING ONE AREA TO ANOTHER AREA. SO I LIKE THE SOUTHWEST NORTHEAST BECAUSE WE CAN TREAT BOTH AREAS EQUALLY. IN REGARDS OF, UM. IMPROVEMENTS UM , AND THEN THE LAST QUESTION I HAVE IS ANNEXATION. YOU DID STAY THAT, UM WHEN WE IF WE DO, AND IN THE COMING YEARS DO ANNEXATION WE CAN SET YOU KNOW HOW YOU SAID THAT THERE'S LIKE ONE ROAD WHERE CAN YOU FURTHER EXPLAIN THAT BECAUSE IT'S INTRIGUING IN REGARDS OF LIKE UM , HERE IN INDIAN TOWN. WE HAVEN'T SEEN GROWTH AND EVERYONE KNOWS THAT GIRLS WILL COME AND WE NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR IT. AND HAVING THIS MOBILITY STUDY IS A STEP FORWARD AND MAKING SURE THAT WE HAVE THINGS IN PLACE SO THAT YOU KNOW OUR OUR TEXT. CURRENT TAXPAYERS ARE NOT PAYING FOR THE COMING YEARS OF WHATEVER COMES DOWN THE ROAD, WHATEVER PERSON OR OR DEVELOPMENT COMES DOWN AND LET'S JUST SAY THOSE 5000. UM RESIDENTS THAT WILL BE COMING INTO THAT DEVELOPMENT. WELL, THEY'LL BE THAT DEVELOPMENT WILL BE PAYING FOR, YOU KNOW, COMING INTO OUR COMMUNITY IMPACTING OUR COMMUNITY BECAUSE THAT'S AT THE MUST. THANK YOU. UM UNTIL AT LAST POINTS HOST. THE FIRST PART IS HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH TAXATION? SO THE VILLAGE CAN ONLY ASSESS THE MOBILITY FEE ON PROPERTY WITHIN THE VILLAGE. SO THAT'S LARGELY THE AREA THAT'S IN THE GREEN TODAY. SO TO ENSURE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO AMEND THE ORDINANCE, THE MOBILITY OF THE ORDINANCE EACH TIME A PARCEL ANNEXES. WE'VE ESTABLISHED A LARGER WHAT'S CALLED A SERVICE AREA, IF YOU WILL, UM, SO AS DEVELOPMENT COMES IN YOUR YOUR NOTING AS THEY COME IN, WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO ASSESS THEM ABILITY FOR YOU TOWARDS THEM. SO THAT'S HOW YOU DEAL WITH THE ASSESSMENTS. IN TERMS OF NEW DEVELOPMENT AND ITS IMPACT. THE MOBILITY PLANS SET THE FRAMEWORK BUT THERE ARE SOME POLICIES THAT YOU'RE LIKELY STILL GOING TO NEED TO PUT INTO YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AS IT RELATES TO THE NEW DEVELOPMENT.ESSENTIALLY IN THE MOBILITY FI TECHNICAL REPORT ACTUALLY CALLS OUT SEVERAL OF THEM. UM ONE. I RECOMMEND TO ALL MY MUNICIPAL CLIENTS. IF YOU'RE GIVING WATER AND SEWER SERVICE TO SOMEBODY, YOU DON'T GIVE IT TO HIM UNLESS YOU'RE THE ANNEX. DON'T BECAUSE IT'S JUST IT DOESN'T IT DOESN'T BENEFIT YOU AS A MUNICIPALITY TO EXTEND WATER AND SEWER AND NOT RECEIVE THE BENEFIT OF THAT DEVELOPMENT COMING INTO YOUR COMMUNITY. AND THEN TAX BASE FROM IT, SO THAT'S ONE TO HAVE THAT POLICY IN PLACE TO ESTABLISH POLICY IN PLACE TO SAY AS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN. IT BUILDS. THOSE GREEN CORRIDORS BUILDS THOSE OTHER IMPROVEMENTS AS PART OF ITS INTERNAL DEVELOPMENT. AND THEN DEPENDING ON THE SIZE AND SCALE OF THAT, YOU CAN SAY YOU'RE GOING TO GO FROM POINT A TO POINT B. IF IT'S A SMALLER PROJECT, AND THERE'S MAYBE FIVE OR SIX OTHER PARCELS TO ANOTHER MAJOR ROAD. YOU'RE GONNA LEASE REQUIRED TO STUB TO THE PROPERTY LINE. SO WHEN THE NEXT PROJECT COMES IN THEY JUST CONNECT TO THAT ROADWAY. UM AND THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE A LOT OF PLACES. THEY'LL JUST PUT A CALL THE SAC AT THE END OF IT, AND THEY'LL STOP 20 FT.
SHORT. AND THEY WANT DEDICATE THE RIGHT AWAY WILL BECOME PART OF THE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION AND GOOD LUCK GETTING THAT WITHOUT GOING THROUGH EMINENT DOMAIN. YOU KNOW, THIS REALLY SETS THE STAGE IN PLACE THAT AS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN. NOT ONLY IS IT GOING TO BUILD ITS OWN LOCAL ROAD NETWORK YOU WANTED TO BUILD SOME OF THESE MAJOR CORRIDORS AS WELL INTERNAL TO THEIR PROJECTS. SO THIS SORT OF GIVES YOU A VISION. ULTIMATELY IT'S UP TO THE ELECTED OFFICIALS TO ENSURE THAT VISION GETS IMPLEMENTED. UM IT'S JUST, YOU KNOW, FROM MY 25 YEARS NOW DOING THIS AND ME BEING A RESIDENT IN FLORIDA FOR OVER 30 YEARS. YOU KNOW, I'VE SEEN EVERYTHING FROM A SMALL CENTRAL FLORIDA AND WEST COAST AREA WHERE I GREW UP IN YOU KNOW ALL OF THE STATE HOW MUCH IT'S BOOMED IN OVER 30 YEARS I'VE BEEN THERE, AND I'VE KNOWN HOW MANY COMMUNITIES HAVEN'T DONE THIS TYPE OF PLANNING. AND THEY'RE ALL JUST STUCK WITH TWO BRAND NEW SUBDIVISIONS COME IN. THEY'RE NOT CONNECTED BECAUSE THEY BOTH HAVE A CALLING SACK, AND THERE WAS NO REQUIREMENT TO CONNECT THEM. SO NOW THEY GET TO ONE TO THE OTHER. YOU GOTTA GO
[01:05:03]
34 MILES OUT OF YOUR WAY. TO GET TO IT. AND YOU REALLY DON'T WANT THAT AS PART OF THIS COMMUNITY.YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENSURE NEW DEVELOPMENT CONNECTS. YEAH AM I GONNA GET MY CHANCE? MIRROR MIRROR JACKIE CLARKE. COUNCILWOMAN DONE SPOKE. UH I JUST WANT TO BE CLEAR ON THE NORTHEAST AND THE SOUTHWEST. UH DOES THAT MEAN ANYWHERE NOW THAT THE VILLAGE YOU KNOW? WHAT'S INCORPORATED NOW? DOES THAT MEAN ANYWHERE? NORTHEAST OR YEAH OR SOUTHWEST WITHIN THIS VILLAGE THAT'S INCORPORATED NOW THAT THESE FUNDS COULD BE SUSPENDED IN WE'RE NEW DEVELOPMENT COME IN. CORRECT AND BECAUSE UM. BECAUSE WE'RE PROPOSING TO TAKE A PORTION OR ALL OF MARTIN COUNTY'S FEES. THERE ARE COUNTY ROADWAYS AS PART OF THIS MOBILITY PLAN. WE'VE IDENTIFIED BOTH MULTIMODAL IMPROVEMENTS AND INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS. AND WE ARE GOING TO RECOMMEND AS PART OF THE ORDINANCE, SETTING ASIDE ANYWHERE FROM 10 TO 20% OF THE MONEY COLLECTED FOUR COUNTY ROADS SO THAT YOU KNOW, SO YOU NOTICE THAT THESE AREAS ARE A LITTLE BIT BROADER THAN THE MUNICIPAL LIMITS. BECAUSE SOME OF THESE CARNEY IMPROVEMENTS GO OUTSIDE OF THE EXACT AREA AND THEN THE LARGER BROWN AREA IS FOR THOSE INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE FURTHER OUT. IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE THIS. EVEN IF YOU SET THIS MONEY ASIDE , YOU ACTUALLY WOULDN'T LEGALLY HAVE THE BASIS TO SPEND IT OR GIVE IT TO THE COUNTY BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T IDENTIFIED AS A BENEFIT DISTRICT. THIS IS LARGELY SAYING THIS IS PROVIDING A BENEFIT. TO THIS. SO UM SO YEAH, BOTH THOSE DISTRICTS THAT THEY DO GO BEYOND MUNICIPAL LIMITS BECAUSE THERE ARE COUNTY IMPROVEMENTS. AND CARNEY PROJECTS WE'VE IDENTIFIED THAT ARE GO BEYOND MUNICIPAL LIMITS AS WELL. OKAY? I THINK I GOT ALL THE ANSWERS. WHEN, MISS, UH HERNANDEZ WAS TALKING AS WELL AS MR BROWN. SO I WON. WE ADOPT THIS AND APPROVE IT. I MEAN, WE CAN GET THE ROLLING WITH GRANTS AND EVERYTHING. YOU'D WANT TO. I MEAN, I WOULD START CONVERSATIONS WITH. I DON'T KNOW IF A MEMBER OF YOUR STAFF PART OF THE MPO TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE OR A FEW AS WE GOT OFFICIALS SIT ON THE BOARD, BUT I WOULD GIVE THEM A HEADS UP. WE'RE ADOPTING A MOBILITY PLAN AND WE'RE ADOPTING VIACOM PLAN AND WE WANT TO SEE IT INTEGRATED. INTO THE LONG RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLAN, SO WE THEN BECOME ELIGIBLE FOR STATE AND FEDERAL FUNDING. YEAH, RIGHT.
YOU SIT ON THAT POOR RIGHT? I MEAN, I KNOW COUNCILMAN STONE DOES, BUT YOU GO AS WELL.
AWESOME SAUCE. THANK YOU, JONATHAN. AWESOME PRESENTATION. AFTER HOW MANY A YEAR AND A HALF . WOW THAT'S A LOT OF WORK. AND PEOPLE THINK WE'RE NOT DOING NOTHING. WOW YEAH, WE ACTUALLY WERE TALKING EARLIER TALKING EARLIER YESTERDAY. YEAH MR. BROWN ASKED ME TO. UM PEOPLE THINK IT SHOULD BE LIKE NOVEMBER 2020. AND THEN WE HAD A ZOOM. YEAH. AND THEN I THINK WE HAD A SECOND ONE IN MARCH OF 2021. THEN WE FINALLY GOT TO GO AND KICK OFF IN APRIL AND REALLY KICKED OFF. AND, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, IT'S IT TAKES A WHILE. SO UM, BUT WELL, UH, DETAILED PRESENTATION, BUT THIS HELPED AND I WILL SAY I MEAN, WE'VE, UM MANY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY THAT WE'RE LISTENING EARLIER ON, ZOOM. THE FIRST GO AROUND. WE HAD A SMALL CROWD AT FIRST AND THEN PRETTY MUCH DOUBLE IN SIZE. WE'RE GOING PRESENTATION AND WE KIND OF LET THEM ASK QUESTIONS THROUGH IT, AND THEY HAD A LOT OF GREAT FEEDBACK, BUT WE WEREN'T ABLE TO GET THROUGH ALL THE PRESENTATION BECAUSE THEY JUST REALLY GOT INVOLVED IN IT. BUT WE WOULD ANY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY THAT ARE LISTENING OR STREAMING ONLINE. WE DO WELCOME ANY FEEDBACK THAT YOU HAVE, UM AND THERE WILL BE ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK. AS WE GO THROUGH THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD, I GUESS WOULD BE THE NEXT AND THEN THE FIRST READING BEFORE THE VILLAGE COUNCIL. AWESOME. THANK YOU. SO DO WE HAVE ANY MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY ON ZOOM, OKAY? WELL IF THERE AREN'T ANY MORE QUESTIONS. YOU KNOW, LET MISS. I'LL SEE YOU CAN DIRECT US IF WE DON'T KNOW IF THE PROTOCOL IF WE END THIS OR WE KEEP IT OPEN FOR A LITTLE BIT LONGER. I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYBODY COME THROUGH THE DOOR SO WELL. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS MAYBE WE CAN REPEAT SINCE THIS VERSION OF THE WORKSHOP WILL BE POSTED. AND. GOOD QUESTIONS FROM THE FIRST SESSION, ONE OF THEM BEING IS THE VILLAGE KEEPING 100% OF WHAT IS COLLECTED AT THIS IS ADOPTED.
IT'S A GREAT QUESTION, AND WE HAD THIS DISCUSSION. UM THERE'S GOING TO BE ONGOING TO GO NEGOTIATIONS WITH MARTIN COUNTY. UM AS OF RIGHT NOW, THE TECHNICAL REPORT LAYS OUT
[01:10:04]
DOCUMENTATION. ABOVE TRAVEL ON COUNTY ROADS AND ALSO THE PERCENTAGE OF MOBILITY PLAN IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. AND THOSE RANGE ANYWHERE FROM 10 TO 20. SOME OF THE TRAVEL IN THE REAL BIG SERVICE AREA GETS UP TO 30% OF TRAVEL ON COUNTY ROADS. UM ULTIMATELY, AS WE GO THROUGH THIS, WE'LL BE LOOKING AND RECOMMENDING, SETTING ASIDE ANYWHERE TO 10. TO 20% OF THE IMPROVEMENTS. UM FOR COUNTY ROADS. WE DID. LOOK AT BOTH EXISTING TRAFFIC AND TRAFFIC ALL THE WAY OUT IN THE 2045 JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT MARTIN HIGHWAY AND ALLAH PATH A SUCH AS BOULEVARD UM CANADA, HIGHWAY AND BRIDGE. ANY OF THE COMMUNITIES ARE THERE ANY OTHER ROADS THAT ARE LIKELY TO BE USED BY VILLAGE RESIDENTS NOW OR INTO THE FUTURE? IF ANY OF THOSE WERE GOING TO BE OVER CAPACITY AND THAT WE SHOULD BE ACCOUNTING FOR THAT, WHICH WOULD HAVE PROBABLY GIVEN THE COUNTY A LITTLE BIT LARGER OVER SHARE. BUT GROWING THAT TRAFFIC OUT TO 2045 NONE OF THOSE ROADWAYS, TRIGGERING A WIDENING UM NO, IT'S NOT THE SAME. THE FUTURE THEY WON'T AND MAYBE A LARGER SHARE SETS ASIDE IN THE FUTURE, BUT AS OF RIGHT NOW, WHAT WE LARGELY FOUND IS COUNTY IMPROVEMENTS AT THE INTERSECTIONS IN ANYWHERE BETWEEN 10 AND 20% OF THE MOBILITY FEE. SHOULD BE SET ASIDE FOR IMPROVEMENTS ON COUNTY ROADS AND FOR THOSE INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS. AND THEN JUST TWO MORE QUESTIONS. THE FIRST ONE WHAT ARE THE CONS OF HAVING THIS MOBILITY THING? IN GENERAL, THE MOBILITY FEES HAVE BEEN REALLY WELL ACCEPTED AND ESTABLISHED THROUGHOUT FLORIDA. I WILL SAY THE BIGGEST CON IS ULTIMATELY WHO CONTROLS THE MONEY, UM, BETWEEN THE CITY OR BETWEEN THE VILLAGE AND THE COUNTY. UM AND IT ISN'T UNIQUE TO THIS COMMUNITY. IT'S GOING ON SEVERAL COMMUNITIES TO THE SOUTH. I'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN. PALM BEACH COUNTY VERSUS PALM BEACH GARDENS , WHICH HAS BEEN IN LAWSUIT FOR THE PAST YEAR. UM JUST TO THE NORTH PORT SAINT LUCIE VERSUS ST LUCIE COUNTY. THERE WAS A YEARLONG MEDIATION. ALTERNATIVELY WE CAME UP TO AN AGREEMENT THAT ENDED UP ROUGHLY BEING 25% OF, UM THE COUNTY FUNDS ARE COLLECTED BY THE CITY. AND THE CITY COLLECTS 75% OF THE MOBILITY FEES, SO IT COLLECTS A PORTION OF THE COUNTIES RAILWAY IMPACT FEE PORTION OF ITS MOBILITY FEE, AND THEN WE MIX THAT MONEY TO THE COUNTY. SO YOU KNOW THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF ITERATIONS AND VARIATIONS THAT COULD OCCUR BETWEEN THE VILLAGE AND MARTIN COUNTY. UM I WILL SAY , YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT AND FOR THE RECORD, WE'RE NOT PROPOSING OR SAYING WE HAVE NO IMPACT ON COUNTY ROADS WERE ADMITTING THAT THERE IS AN IMPACT OR PROPOSING TO SET ASIDE A PERCENTAGE. AS NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE COUNTY. GO ON, LET PERCENTAGE GO UP OR GO DOWN WILL BE SOMETHING DIFFERENT POSSIBLE. UM YOU KNOW, COULD THE VILLAGE ELECTOR ESTABLISHED A HIGHER PERCENTAGE? YOU CERTAINLY COULD. COULD YOU ELECT TO ESTABLISH NONE? YOU COULD WITHIN YOUR OWN PURVIEW. I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT. AND YOU SET ASIDE AT LEAST SOME SHARE TO IT. UM WELL FROM A LEGAL AND STATUTORY PERSPECTIVE. YOU KNOW, AS LONG AS YOU AGREE TO MAKE THOSE IMPROVEMENTS SHOULD THEY EVER BE TRIGGERED A WARRANTED? YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO SET ASIDE ANYTHING BUT IN GENERAL WOULD BE GOOD PRACTICE TO SET ASIDE A PERCENTAGE, UM, TO THE FOR THE COUNTY PROJECTS.AND THE FINAL QUESTION. THE GREEN LINES ON YOUR MAP FOR THE PROJECTS. WHO DECIDED. WHERE THESE LINES WOULD GO AND CAN THEY BE CHANGED? GREAT QUESTION. I'LL PULL THAT MAP BACK UP. UM WE LOOKED AT IT BASED ON THE FUTURE DATA ANALYSIS, UM, LAND DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS. AND WHAT MADE LOGICAL SENSE. UM ONE OF THE BARRIERS IS YOU HAVE TO VERY REAL PHYSICAL BARRIERS IN TERMS OF THE CANAL AND A RAILROAD TRACK. THAT MAKES SOME LIMITATION TO THOSE CORRIDORS.
BUT IN GENERAL, WE TRIED TO EXTEND LOGICAL CONNECTIONS OF THE EXISTING COUNTY AND VILLAGE INFRASTRUCTURE. BUT. AND WE ALSO TRIED TO LOOK AT THE PROPERTY APPRAISERS. UM UNDERLYING DATA KEPT IT ALONG PARCELS TRIED TO AVOID PEOPLE'S HOUSES. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF CHANGES. WE GOT SOME FEEDBACK ON AND WE'LL BE MAKING A FEW OF THOSE, UM BUT YOU KNOW THERE IS A NOTE PRIOR. IT'S HARD TO SEE THIS LEVEL. BUT THOSE GREEN ALIGNMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AS DEVELOPMENT COMES IN AS A STORM WATER. IDENTIFIED AS A WETLANDS IS FURTHER ANALYSES. THOSE CORRIDORS WILL BE MODIFIED
[01:15:07]
, BUT THE GENERAL INTENT IS TO SHOW WHERE THEY START. AND WHERE THEY END. AND WHERE THEY GENERALLY AND IS SOME TYPE OF LOGICAL EXTENSION OR LOGICAL DEFINITION OR CONNECTION TO ANOTHER ROADWAY, AND ALL THOSE GREENLAND'S ARE OUTSIDE THE VILLAGE. A LOT OF THOSE ARE OUTSIDE OF THE VILLAGE TODAY. UM, A FEW OF THOSE AREAS. FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD. I'VE BEEN LOOKED AT POTENTIAL IS ANNEXATION INTO THE VILLAGE. UM ONE OF THEM IS ALSO THE TERRA LAGO DEVELOPMENT A COUPLE OF THOSE CORRIDORS. SO, YES, A LOT OF THOSE. ARE OUTSIDE OF THE LIMITS. UM BUT THEY'RE ALL WITHIN YOUR SERVICE AREA. AND THEY'RE ALL AREAS THAT ARE FAIRLY RIPE TO BE CONSIDERED. FOR ANNEXATION IN THE FUTURE. AND JUST KNOWING HOW QUICKLY GROWTH CAN COME. UM, YOU KNOW, ONCE THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY KNOWS YOU'RE OUT THERE THEY ALL TEND TO MIGRATE AND MOVEMENT IN BUNCHES. AND UM, YOU KNOW, THERE'S LESS AND LESS LAND AVAILABLE IN PALM BEACH COUNTY. TO THE SOUTH OF YOU. UM, A LOT OF THE LAND OF IMPORTS. ST.LUCIE IS WHILE THERE'S STILL A LOT TO BE DEVELOPED, A LOT OF IT'S ALREADY BEEN ALLOCATED AND SPOKEN FOR IN TERMS OF DEVELOPMENT. UM MARTIN COUNTY ITSELF HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN SLOWER GROWTH COMMUNITY. SO YOU KNOW, I THINK THEY'RE YOU KNOW THE VILLAGE. YOU'RE DOING THIS AT THE RIGHT TIME. BEFORE YOU GET THE DEVELOPMENT IN THERE BECAUSE NONE OF THIS PLANNING IS IN PLACE RIGHT NOW. SO IF THAT DEVELOPMENT JUST COMES IN, AND IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN HAPHAZARDLY , AND IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PART OF ANY OVERALL PLAN. THIS REALLY ENSURES THAT OVER THE NEXT 20 YEARS. UM AS THESE AREAS COME IN. THEY'RE PART OF YOUR OVERALL NETWORK. MS JEFFERSON. SO DOES THIS HAVE TO GO UP TO THE STATE TO GET APPROVAL OR JUST AN AMENDMENT FOR US TO ADD IT? NO THIS DOESN'T HAVE TO BE APPROVED BY THE STATE COUNCIL. AS AN ORDINANCE. CLARK FOR THE RECORD, I'M SORRY. COUNCILWOMAN JANET HERNANDEZ FOR THE RECORD. THE MOBILITY PLAN ONCE WE IT GOES THROUGH ITS PHASES THROUGH THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD COMES TO US. THERE'S 1ST AND 2ND READING. WHEN SHOULD WE BE STARTING TO IMPLEMENT OR LIKE? OKAY. IT'S WHERE WE'RE GOING TO START. AS IN. WHOEVER THE NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN, WE'LL START. PAYING THEIR FEES. OR DO THOSE. I MEAN, REALLY, THE MOBILITY PLAN CAN GO INTO EFFECT AS SOON AS YOU ADOPTED BY ORDINANCE OR RESOLUTION. UM, THE FEAR ITSELF. GENERALLY WILL BE 90 DAYS AFTER AND THERE'S TWO PERIODS AND THIS IS SOMETHING I NEED TO DISCUSS FURTHER WITH THE VILLAGES, LEGAL COUNSEL SOME COMMUNITIES HAVE ELECTED TO START THE 90 DAYS AT THE FIRST READING. SOME HAVE ELECTED TO START IT. AT THE SECOND ADOPTION. SO REALLY, THERE'S. I'VE DONE IT BOTH WAYS AND A LOT OF COMMUNITIES. UM IT REALLY ENDS UP BEING A PREFERENCE OF YOURSELF. GIVEN THAT YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF LARGE PENDING DEVELOPMENT. YOU MAY STRONGLY WANT TO CONSIDER PROPERLY NOTICING AT THAT FIRST MEETING AND STARTING THE 90 DAYS THERE, BUT ULTIMATELY AS A VILLAGE COUNCIL, THAT'S UH THAT'S YOUR DECISION. WHEN ARE WE ESTIMATING? THAT WE WOULDN'T BE SEEN FOR FIRST TRADING ON COUNCIL. DO YOU HAVE, LIKE A TIMELINE TO GET WITH ALETHEA? BUT WE'RE LOOKING TO TAKE IT. YOU KNOW, WE'RE WE'VE DONE A LOT AND IT'S READY TO GO. SO I DON'T KNOW THAT WE'RE OTHER THAN SETTING UP THE PCB BOARD AND GETTING ON THE CALENDAR AND GETTING THE COORDINATION THE FINAL ORDINANCE WITH THE LEGAL COUNSEL. UM I MEAN, I GUESS SOMETIME IN THE NEXT MONTH OR TWO, IT'S GOING TO BE COMING TO YOU KNOW, I'M RUSHING JUST HOWARD BROWN VILLAGE MANAGER TO IN RESPONSE TO COUNCIL WOMEN'S QUESTION. WE ARE WORKING ON IT.
UM WE HAD A PRELIMINARY MEETING ON YESTERDAY WITH MARTIN COUNTY. WE INTRODUCED THIS ITEM TO THEM, AND WE ARE WAITING GOING TO BE BACK FROM THEM. HOWEVER WE INFORMED THEM THAT WE WOULD BE MOVING FORWARD WITH WITH WITH THIS WITH OUR MOBILITY, UH, STUDY AND FEE. SO OUR NEXT MOVE WILL BE IT WILL BE TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING APPEALS BOARD. THAT WILL YOU KNOW WE MEET EVERY. FIRST THURSDAY OF EACH MONTH. SO, YOU KNOW. WE'RE THINKING ABOUT TIME OF YEAR. I'M
[01:20:07]
THINKING. UM THAT SECOND THURSDAY IN AUGUST. BECAUSE BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT WE MOVE. WE MOVED TO MEET RIGHT. WE MOVED THE MEETING. WE MOVED THE PLANES ON THE APPEALS COURT MEETING, SO IT WILL BE THURSDAY, AUGUST 11 RIGHT. I'LL GIVE STAFF ENOUGH TIME TO PUT IT ON THE AGENDA. WE CAN DO THE NOTICE, RIGHT? FOR WHAT? WHAT? SO DID YOU ALL HAVE ANOTHER DATE? OKAY SO HE JUST LOOKING AT IT, SO WAIT REVIEW. SO OUR ATTORNEY RIGHT NOW IS REVIEWING THE ACTUAL AD. AND HE'LL LET US KNOW AND WHAT THAT WHAT THAT MEANS. NOW THERE'S SOME OTHER INTERNAL PIECES. MR PAUL IS CRITICAL. HE'S LIKE THE JET FUEL. TO THE PRESENTATION. AND SO WE SIMPLY CAN'T MOVE FORWARD UNLESS HE'S ABLE TO MEET AT THIS MEETING WITH THE PCB BOARD AND ALL THE ABOVE, SO WE HAVE TO WORK AROUND HIS SCHEDULE. AND, UM YOU KNOW, SO I'M THINKING YOU KNOW? MAYBE BY THE WELL. YESTERDAY WE TOLD THE COUNTY BY THE END OF THE YEAR CALENDAR YEAR, OKAY? WOW. OKAY I WAS JUST GONNA ASK DECEMBER. WE'RE TRYING TO WORK WITH THEM. BUT NOW WE DON'T HAVE TO WAIT ON THEM. IF WE CAN'T COME TO AN AGREEMENT, CAN WE DECIDE WHAT WE WANT TO SAY? I'M JUST SAYING, I'M JUST SPEAKING OUT LOUD BECAUSE, YOU KNOW I MEAN, WHAT IF THEY DON'T? I MEAN, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. I'M JUST SAYING, DO WE GET TO MOVE FORWARD EVEN IF WE DON'T GET AN AGREEMENT, PARALLEL PATHS PARALLEL PATHS WILL BE MOVING FORWARD DOWNRANGE ON OUR PROPOSAL AND IF, AND WHEN THE COUNTY IS WILLING AND ABLE TO NEGOTIATE. WE WILL NEGOTIATE . OKAY, WE WILL INFORM, YOU KNOW WE WILL INFORM. WE WILL INFORM BOTH THE AMERICAN COUNSELOR AN APPROPRIATE TIME, BUT WE'LL BE USING PARALLEL PATHS. YEAH, OKAY. SO GO AHEAD. YOU GOT SOME DATES HERE. WELL NO, BUT I DID WANT TO MENTION WE TALKED ABOUT POSSIBLY MEETING WITH LOCAL UM DEVELOPERS AND SO ALSO STAND THIS ALSO, UM YOU KNOW THE STAFF RIGHT, THE STAFF WE, WE MET BRIEFLY, AND WE TALKED ABOUT TALKING TO OUR LOCAL DEVELOPERS . CORRECT BEFORE WE STARTED DOING MORE THAN WHAT WE'RE DOING NOW, SO THAT IS PART OF OUR PLAN. SO THAT'S WHY I'M NOT COMMITTED ON GIVING YOU AN EXACT DATE AT THIS TIME, BUT I KNOW THE URGENCY AND I UNDERSTAND YOU KNOW THE COUNCIL WOMAN'S CONCERNED BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T WANT TO GET IT HUNG UP IN THE BUREAUCRACY AND I GET THAT. BUT THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT THING FOR THE VILLAGE BECAUSE WE NEED THE MONEY TO PAY FOR. THESE IMPACTS THAT WE WILL SUFFER AS A RESULT OF THESE DEVELOPMENTS ONE WE'VE ALREADY APPROVED, SO WE KNOW THAT IN THEIR FIRST PHASE, THEY WON'T BE AFFECTED BY THE FEE WILL BE AFFECTED BY CAUSE THEY'LL BE PAYING THE COUNTY. THAT THEIR IMPACT FEE FOR ROAD IMPACT FEE. THE FIRST PHASE UM TERRA LAGO. WELL, WE DON'T KNOW , BUT I THINK WE'RE ON A TRAJECTORY THAT GET AHEAD OF IT.THEY STILL NEED TO DO A PLAN APPROVAL THAT THEY WERE COMPLETED. SO. SO WE GOT ALL THESE MOVING PARTS GOING RIGHT NOW AND SO. YEAH WELL, ONCE WE ONCE THE BEAUTY OF IT IS ONCE WE GET THE YOU KNOW, MR PAUL TALKED ABOUT PLANNING. NO, NO, NO. I MEAN, WHICH WE CAN A WE GOTTA SET SOME KIND OF FEE. I MEAN, IF WE CAN'T DO AN IMPACT FEE I MEAN , WE GOTTA EAT TOO. I MEAN, IT AIN'T RIGHT FOR THE COUNTY TO KEEP EATING AND WE DON'T EAT THEM PEOPLE BRINGING NEW DEVELOPMENT IN THE VILLAGE AND THEY GET ALL THE MONEY AT THE END OF THE DAY. I MEAN, WE GOT BILLS TO PAY TWO. THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT WE HAVE TO GET THIS MOBILITY FEE IN PLACE SO THAT WE CAN PAY FOR THESE IMPACTS THAT WE WILL SUFFER IN TERMS OF MOBILITY. AND SO, UM, THAT THAT'S THAT'S A CONCERN FOR ALL OF US, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW, THE WAY IT STANDS IF WE DON'T DO THIS MOBILITY FEEDING ALL IMPACT FEES RIGHT NOW. CONNOR DIRECTLY MARTIN COUNTY AND AS YOU CAN SEE BY THIS STUDY, WE ARE IMPACTED MORE THAN UNINCORPORATED MARTIN COUNTY, AND THIS STUDY PROVES THAT WE DON'T HAVE NO MONEY ALLOCATED TO FIXING IT IN HERE, SO IT MAKES SENSE FOR US TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD, SO WE'LL BE WE'LL BE DOING PARALLEL PATHS. WE'LL TRY TO EXPEDITE AS MUCH AS WE CAN. WE SET A TENTATIVE DATE OF DECEMBER OF 2022. BUT IT WILL BE BEFORE THAT. IT WILL BE SUBJECT TO MR PAUL SCHEDULE. SETTING UP THE MEETING UP WITH THE LOCAL DEVELOPERS TALKING WITH THEM AND MOVING FORWARD WITH PCB BOARD ONTO THE VILLAGE COUNCIL BIRTH READING, MAKE A DECISION ON IF WE'RE GOING TO MAKING A DECISION IF WE'RE GOING TO START THE 1988. NOTICE AFTER
[01:25:05]
WE DO THE LEGAL NOTICE ON FIRST READING OR SECOND READING THAT WILL BE AWAKE CALL AND WE'LL BE INFORMED THE COUNCIL AS WE MOVE FORWARD, SO NOW DOES THIS, UH, LORD, THEY IMPACT FEE SINCE WE TAKEN SOMETHING FROM THE COUNTY, SO IT DOESN'T HAVE NO NOTHING. NO, BARON. GO THEY STILL GET THEIR HOT TOP DOLLAR COUNCILWOMAN JANET HERNANDEZ AGAIN AND JUST WANTED TO STAY.UM BECAUSE I DID SEE SOMEWHERE. THAT THIS PRESENTATION WAS AN ONLINE I WAS ABLE TO FIND IT SO IF STAFF CAN PUT IT ATTACHED TO AN AGENDA, BECAUSE I DID GO TO THE AGENDA, AND IT WAS AN ATTACHED, BUT THIS IS ONLINE AND WHEN YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO A PUBLIC RECORDS REQUEST, LIKE SOMEONE STATED ONLINE. YOU IT'S AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC. AND IF YOU WANT TO GO TO MY ACCOUNT OF WOMAN PAGE, YOU CAN FIND IT THERE. THANK YOU. I JUST CHECKED FOR 4 36. OR FOUR O'CLOCK AND 6 30. THIS ON IT IS POSTED. BUT YOU JUST YEAH. YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO A PUBLIC RECORD FOR CUSTOMER. HIS PRESENTATION. JONATHAN I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE. UM THE MAYOR UNDERSTOOD THAT ALTHOUGH WE WERE HAVING MOBILITY FEE, THE COUNTY WE'LL STILL HAVE A TRANSPORTATION IMPACTS. THE HOWEVER. PAYING BOTH. IF YOU CAN EXPLAIN THAT, JONATHAN, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE SHE UNDERSTOOD. YEAH I MEAN, RIGHT NOW, THE VILLAGE MOVES FORWARD WITH ITS MOBILITY FEE. UM HOPEFULLY WE CAN COME TO SOME TYPE OF AGREEMENT WITH THE COUNTY. UM AS IT RELATES TO THE SETTING ASIDE SOME SHARE OF IT, UM AS THE PERMITTING AUTHORITY. YOU'RE THE ONES THAT ISSUE THE BUILDING PERMITS SO THE COUNTY IS CARRYING ON YOU TO COLLECT THEIR FEAR GET A RECEIPT FOR THEIR FEE. PRIOR TO THEM COMING IN. YOU CAN ELECT TO NOT COLLECT ON THE COMPANY'S BEHALF, AND THEN IT'S REALLY UP TO THE COUNTY IF THEY WANT TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT. AND THEN STATUTE REQUIRES ANY LOCAL GOVERNMENT THE IMPLEMENTS OF FEE . THEY'RE THE ONES AFTER DEFEND IT, SO THE COUNTY WOULD HAVE TO DEFEND THAT. IT'S MEETING THE DUAL, RATIONAL NEXUS. AND ALL THESE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS IF IT WANTED TO ASSESS ITS FAITH. ARE WE JUST SAYING. HERE.
WELL, THAT CONCLUDES THIS PUBLIC WORKSHOP. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR COMING.
