Good evening chair. Good evening members
of the planning and zoning board. Um

63
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:14,080
it's been a while so it's wonderful to
see you all tonight. Um, as our long

64
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:19,919
header told you, tonight we will be
adopting amendments to chapter 32 um, in

65
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:25,360
order for us to adopt a master plan that
was presented to you all um, a couple

66
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:29,120
meetings ago. Before we do that, I'm
going to give a little bit background

67
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:35,440
just to kind of catch us up. Um, in
January of 2024, we the city council

68
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:40,080
adopted ordinance 4245 that established
chapter 32, which was the arts and

69
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:43,280
public places. Um and then from there,
one of the key components that were

70
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:48,479
found inside of that ordinance was that
we were supposed to have a master plan

71
00:05:45,759 --> 00:05:53,199
um developed in order for us to actually
acquire art in the city in order and

72
00:05:51,199 --> 00:05:58,000
also to identify where to put this art
and how to do all of this, right? So it

73
00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:01,840
was a bit of like how do we do this? So
this master plan is supposed to instruct

74
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:07,039
us to do this. So what we So the city
council um commissioned designing local

75
00:06:04,479 --> 00:06:12,560
Ltd in order to lead this development.
God bless you. in order to lead this

76
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:15,919
development um of the master plan. So
tonight we'll talk about what um we'll

77
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:21,520
talk a little bit more about that master
plan, but a proposed master plan is now

78
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:27,199
created and we did this utilizing our
community members to envision um how

79
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:30,800
they would see art here in our city. So,
it's been drafted and what's been

80
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:36,720
drafted along with this are amendments
to that ordinance 4245

81
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:40,800
in order to align with our master plan,
in order to actually implement the

82
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:45,360
master plan.
So, tonight we'll be talking about those

83
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:52,280
modifications to ordinance 40 um or
4245. And so, the proposed new ordinance

84
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:52,280
is ordinance number 4283.

85
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:59,120
Some of the modifications begin with our
definition section. In our definition

86
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:04,400
section, we're modifying the definition
of art, work of art, and artwork. What

87
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:09,199
we're doing is removing the word
tangible that is in there and replacing

88
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:12,800
it with original creations.
In addition, there's a list of items

89
00:07:11,039 --> 00:07:17,520
that are not considered art. We're
trying to say this is not considered art

90
00:07:14,479 --> 00:07:22,400
for us. Um, and we clarify what that
looks like.

91
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:25,199
We're also adding missing definitions.
Some of those missing definitions that

92
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:30,479
we didn't have in our first ordinance
was what's a local artist. We didn't

93
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,800
have maintenance with respect to artwork
as well as maintenance when we're

94
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:37,840
talking about maintenance of the
property that has the artwork. So, we

95
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:42,720
add those in there. We also were missing
the word the definition for murals. Even

96
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:46,319
though we talk about murals in our in
our city knows about has murals and we

97
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:50,800
know about murals, we didn't have a
definition for that. Um, we're also

98
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:55,280
missing public art collection as well as
temporary artwork. What is that

99
00:07:52,960 --> 00:08:00,240
considered?
In our new um or in our in our proposed

100
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:04,800
language, we also clarify the definition
of the public art master plan. We talk

101
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:11,039
about we talk a little bit more about
what do we consider the master plan.

102
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:15,599
We clarify the definitions of project.
What is a project? And then we add the

103
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:19,759
term unit because we were talking about
residential development but really we

104
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:24,879
were trying to say it's a propo it's a
um planned residential unit development

105
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:28,319
when we talk about our puds.
So that was a scrivener's error on our

106
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:34,039
apartment which we correct and then we
clarified the definition for renovation.

107
00:08:34,470 --> 00:08:37,940
[Music]

108
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:53,279
Further along in our in our um proposal,
we also and this is in section 324, we

109
00:08:50,959 --> 00:08:58,320
clarify that public the public art
board's time commitment. Um we have we

110
00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:02,959
add a time commitment for that and how
they participate a little bit more. And

111
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:08,480
then we also update their duties in
order for it to align with having these

112
00:09:05,519 --> 00:09:12,800
different art activities and and adding
the community into this. It was missing

113
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:17,440
language on their role in doing that.
And so they wanted to add that in there

114
00:09:14,399 --> 00:09:21,279
as well. Um for clarity purposes, we
modified the term budget. We had the

115
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:25,360
word budget in there, but yet everywhere
else we were saying construction costs,

116
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:29,440
which is uh a m which is a pretty big
difference when it comes costwise. So to

117
00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:33,200
not burden our developers, we we have
the word construction cost there for

118
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:38,720
clarity as to what it is that we are
taking that 1% from. We also clarify the

119
00:09:36,399 --> 00:09:43,680
options um the options that our
participants have where we're adding as

120
00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:47,360
defined in this chapter so that way
everybody knows we're just talking about

121
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:51,519
this particular chapter.
We add language in there um that

122
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:54,959
clarifies how they participate um
especially those that are doing big

123
00:09:53,680 --> 00:09:58,959
developments that come in different
phases. How are you supposed to pay the

124
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:02,720
fee with this? Are we doing it in
sections or are we doing it one time?

125
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:09,040
And ours would clarify and say yes,
you'll be paying that at one time. Um,

126
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:12,560
and we also removed section 3282B3
which was a very muddled. It was a lot

127
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:16,320
of words and whereas and it was I think
you kind of scratched your head when you

128
00:10:13,839 --> 00:10:20,800
read it. And so we make the language
clearer in order for everyone who is

129
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:24,560
participating understands how to do just
that.

130
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:31,680
Other
modifications include um

131
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:35,440
we had a section where in in a in a
sense it was it did have a lot of words.

132
00:10:33,279 --> 00:10:40,560
It's like you can give us these but they
seem very they seem very um theoretical

133
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:47,519
and so we we clarified that language and
that language is coming in 37 327. And

134
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:52,560
then we added sections 3212 which is the
actual adoption of the master plan. And

135
00:10:50,560 --> 00:10:57,680
we added another section which is the
guidelines. It's the policies for the

136
00:10:54,959 --> 00:11:03,200
board to utilize of how they're supposed
to do the call for artists, how they're

137
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:07,760
supposed to um evaluate. This gives them
more direction so that way they

138
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:11,839
understand their role as board members.
And those are the adoptions and those

139
00:11:09,839 --> 00:11:17,440
are the modifications that we've made to
chapter 32. the recommendation that we

140
00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:21,600
have as a staff um after working with
designing local which was a very great

141
00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:25,120
experience for our team. Um after
working within our community to hear

142
00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:29,120
where people thought about where they
wanted to go, the type of art that they

143
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:34,160
want to see in the city. Um our staff
recommends approval or we're

144
00:11:31,519 --> 00:11:38,560
recommending that you all ask city
council um that you recommend to city

145
00:11:36,959 --> 00:11:41,560
council the approval of ordinance number
4283.

146
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,720
Any questions?

147
00:11:48,399 --> 00:11:52,640
Quick question for you.
>> Yes, sir.

148
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:56,320
» On 7A, we just had the chapter 32 and
and subsections.

149
00:11:54,560 --> 00:12:00,800
» So, is this another one that we're going
to uh split it up separately? Do the

150
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:05,200
when we do vote on it?
>> Okay.

151
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:09,120
» 7A covers only chapter 32 doesn't have
anything about approval of ordinance

152
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:13,279
4283.
Do you want us to do it separate when we

153
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:17,839
do get to that stage approving uh
chapter 32 and these subsections?

154
00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:21,360
» Chapter 32 and maybe I'm
misunderstanding but this is the

155
00:12:20,079 --> 00:12:24,480
amendment to chapter
>> approval of ordinance board 283.

156
00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:30,240
» Okay. Correct.
>> Okay. 7A we're talking about chapter 32

157
00:12:28,959 --> 00:12:33,519
and the subsection.
>> So if I may, Mr. Chair, I think you're

158
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:38,800
actually talking about the same thing.
So the ordinance number is really for

159
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:44,079
tracking purposes for the clerk, but the
references to chapter 32 are to the

160
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:49,839
references to chapter 2 of the the code
the way that it's codified currently. So

161
00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:52,560
um it's it's the same thing. It's
incorporated.

162
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:56,880
» So in other words, we're not
recommending approval of ordinance

163
00:12:54,320 --> 00:13:02,560
because once we approve chapter 32 and
the subsections, it'll incorporate 4283.

164
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:06,639
So the the motion would be a a motion to
recommend approval of ordinance number

165
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:14,800
4283
which would have the effect of amending

166
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:17,200
the city code at chapter 32.
>> Thank you.

167
00:13:15,680 --> 00:13:20,680
» And I can fix that language for us to
say the same thing.

168
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:35,240
» You guys are a little quiet tonight.
Wow.

169
00:13:31,839 --> 00:13:35,240
Pretty straightforward.

170
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,760
» Okay.

171
00:13:40,399 --> 00:13:48,040
Okay. I thought you I still thought you
still a little bit more. Um any

172
00:13:44,399 --> 00:13:48,040
questions by the board?

173
00:13:48,560 --> 00:13:55,440
» All right. Um I see we have a uh someone
in attendance. Do we have any comment

174
00:13:53,040 --> 00:14:01,839
cards?
>> No, sir. Chair Mr. I love

175
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:05,130
» we have a guest in the audience.
>> Yes, I see that.

176
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:11,560
» I feel like he has a
[Applause]

177
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:11,560
» she's our protector. Okay.

178
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:21,680
» All right. Are we sure we don't have any
questions by the board for this item?

179
00:14:19,279 --> 00:14:24,480
Because it seems like it's a great idea.
>> Just a comment.

180
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:30,880
» Yes, ma'am. Um, you know, thank you to
you, the board that have put time into

181
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:34,959
or the art the public art board and
staff um that put the time into putting

182
00:14:33,279 --> 00:14:40,480
this plan together and looking forward
to seeing the work that comes out of it.

183
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:44,160
» We're excited. We're excited.
>> Beautiful. The picture absolutely

184
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:48,160
beautiful.
>> Only thing I didn't see my picture in

185
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:53,360
here, so I'm
for it hard. I fought for it hard. Now,

186
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:56,560
I was in the first set, I think, when we
were at Thanks, baby. So,

187
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,399
» I've been in there.
>> Yes.

188
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,120
» But they are they're absolutely
beautiful.

189
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,240
» Thank you. They're they're very nice.
Well articulated.

190
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:09,360
» We really had a a great a great
consulting team and our staff has been

191
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:13,120
helping in so many ways, even if they
didn't want to at times, but they've

192
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:17,360
been amazing at um getting us to this
place and our and our board advisory

193
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:21,920
board has been working hard as well. So,
we thank you all. Before I forget, when

194
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:27,920
we get into the section of the pricing
for this art, the planning and zoning

195
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:31,920
board would like to submit uh a bench.
We only charge 28,000.

196
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:38,279
» That's not bad. That's not bad.
>> We accept the cash.

197
00:15:35,279 --> 00:15:38,279
» 25,00

198
00:15:39,279 --> 00:15:43,880
clarify that was a joke for the record.

199
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,800
» Chair, I do have one question.
>> Yes.

200
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:53,680
» Yes. Um, do you guys currently have a
public art coordinator?

201
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:56,560
» Are we going to have one?
>> It's in the policy. Do you have one

202
00:15:55,839 --> 00:16:00,399
currently?
>> We do not have one currently.

203
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:04,959
» It's one It's part of the
recommendations um to have one.

204
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:08,240
» Okay.
>> But you do have a board, correct?

205
00:16:07,199 --> 00:16:12,639
» Okay. I remember that.
>> Correct.

206
00:16:09,519 --> 00:16:21,279
» I have a question real quick. Um,
and I know I was looking through. Do we

207
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:26,639
do we have any I guess um any ideas or
or pictures that that what we are trying

208
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:34,399
what kind of pictures that we are trying
to um exhibit? Is it more cultural? Is

209
00:16:30,399 --> 00:16:38,320
it more um
seaorthy or you know fishes and all kind

210
00:16:36,639 --> 00:16:43,279
of stuff like that or or what kind of
items is it that we're that um we're

211
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:48,079
actually approving? So, right now our
plan talks about like the feeling and um

212
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:52,240
the types of things that we'd like to
see, but we don't have an idea of what

213
00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:57,120
those are exactly. That would be the
artistes that actually would that

214
00:16:54,560 --> 00:17:02,800
respond to our call to art. And then
from there, we'd be able to go, okay,

215
00:16:59,839 --> 00:17:09,360
this this goes based off our checklist
that is given within because art is it

216
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:13,199
varies, right? And so at this moment
based off of what we're trying to do

217
00:17:10,799 --> 00:17:18,000
when the artists respond then we see if
it hits our checklist of what we

218
00:17:14,959 --> 00:17:22,240
consider art and um what we're trying to
evaluate and then from there we know

219
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:25,679
what it really looks like. But today I
couldn't tell you we're going based off

220
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:31,679
of
this idea. Um we can but we can only

221
00:17:29,120 --> 00:17:36,320
talk about um does it connect because
right now the idea is connecting. So

222
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:40,240
connecting neighbors, um connecting art
to health, connecting as that's the

223
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:45,120
theme that we're going with is
connecting our community.

224
00:17:42,559 --> 00:17:50,320
» So is are we are we going behind another
city or another county in far as the

225
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:53,360
design we got? Are we trying to um I
don't know. I know Miami has a lot of

226
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:59,280
nice things down there, but are we going
behind another uh company far as trying

227
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:01,679
to look a certain way or we have an idea
where

228
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:07,520
» Riviera Beach? We are looking like
Riviera Beach. So it it'll be what

229
00:18:04,799 --> 00:18:11,840
accentuates our community. So during the
surveying process, some of the questions

230
00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:16,400
were one, how do you see our city,
right? And two, how do you want to see

231
00:18:13,679 --> 00:18:20,000
our city? So our master plan revolves
around that. How does our community want

232
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:23,600
to see us? So we're not going to look
like Miami and we're not going to look

233
00:18:21,360 --> 00:18:27,679
like West Palm Beach. The hopes is that
we're going to look like the collective

234
00:18:25,919 --> 00:18:31,919
ideas that our community has brought
forward to say this is what Riviera

235
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:35,280
Beach. And it was pretty special because
a lot of people talk that this is home.

236
00:18:33,919 --> 00:18:39,760
Like this is it's a feeling like
acquaintance in a bit of feeling like

237
00:18:37,360 --> 00:18:44,080
home, but at the same time we're we're
big girls and boys, right? Like we want

238
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:48,480
to do so many big things. Um and so the
idea is that the art will capture those

239
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:52,640
feelings um into that and at the same
time art that connects us with our

240
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:55,840
neighbors and art that connects us with
our environment.

241
00:18:54,400 --> 00:19:00,520
» So it it'll look different. It'll look
like Riviera Beach is our is our hope.

242
00:19:01,039 --> 00:19:04,480
Chair.
>> Yes.

243
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:09,360
» One more question. Um Sen.
>> Yes ma'am.

244
00:19:05,120 --> 00:19:15,280
» So when there's art work that will be
purchased or you know things that the

245
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:19,679
city wants to do, what is the process
like? It goes through the board first

246
00:19:17,360 --> 00:19:24,000
through the arts board and then they
make their recommendations to go to the

247
00:19:21,360 --> 00:19:25,200
city council for a final.
>> That's correct.

248
00:19:24,799 --> 00:19:30,559
» Okay.
>> That is correct.

249
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:34,799
So, and our idea is that we have
professionals,

250
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:40,160
well, let me experts within different
art fields that will be able to do help

251
00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:45,760
with that determination and to define
art and then for them to give their

252
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:50,640
recommendations to our council members.
>> Thank you,

253
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:56,480
» the maintenance and the upkeep of the
grounds around our actual art, who's

254
00:19:54,400 --> 00:20:01,120
going to handle that? So if this is art
that is on a per on the owner's

255
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:05,360
property, the owner worries about it.
And if it's art on our own property, we

256
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:09,520
will do that. Part of the evaluation
process of un of saying yes, this is the

257
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:14,320
art we're going to choose. We have to
make sure it's maintenance that we're

258
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:18,720
able to keep up with. At the same time,
>> so we won't select something that's too

259
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:22,880
egregious for our team and and so and
that's not too expensive for our team to

260
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:27,679
be able to keep up with. The artist will
come up with a rendering of what may be

261
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:31,400
appropriate and then the board will vote
on that.

262
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,400
» Correct.

263
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,640
» Great questions you guys.

264
00:20:36,799 --> 00:20:40,840
» Any other questions by the board?

265
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:48,799
» Who would like to make a motion?
>> I have questions. We gonna be here.

266
00:20:47,039 --> 00:20:54,159
» Yes. Question.
>> Um, all right. Last question. What's the

267
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:58,080
timeline? Is the Is the goal to get a
coordinator in place first, then to

268
00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:01,039
start implementing what we have in the
plan, or

269
00:20:59,360 --> 00:21:04,880
» We're hoping to We're hoping to go
before city council in October.

270
00:21:03,120 --> 00:21:08,240
» Okay. October,
>> the next one.

271
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:13,440
» Oh, we go in September for our first
reading and hoping for adoption hearing.

272
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:18,799
We hope aspire to have that in October.
And then um we also we already have

273
00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:25,840
construction of other buildings here in
the city and so we'd like to begin soon

274
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:29,039
um for our first one.
>> Thank you chair.

275
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:33,760
» What what is the chance of the planning
and zoning board being some of the

276
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:36,960
deciding members of what goes where
>> of what goes where?

277
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:41,440
» Yeah. Of what it looks like or where it
goes and what goes where. Cuz we would

278
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:47,840
definitely like to see it before.
>> So you'll see some things. Um so after

279
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:52,799
our re the recommendation is made um
from our board especially when it comes

280
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:56,960
to site plan when they're reviewing site
plans you'll see things come your way in

281
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,440
order to be reviewed before they go to
city council.

282
00:21:57,919 --> 00:22:03,280
» So we'll come back for our review to be
able to see it before it goes to city

283
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:06,320
council. Oh awesome. Awesome.
>> Yeah. Awesome.

284
00:22:05,360 --> 00:22:09,360
» Mr. Chair.
>> Yeah.

285
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:16,480
» I think on last is it last night? I
think it was last night they showed an

286
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:18,640
artwork. I think um uh with the fish and
you know where I don't know where it's

287
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,039
going to go.
>> The gateways

288
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:25,280
» is that will that be the one for the
gate? Is that considered art?

289
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:30,080
» I mean it's art.
>> It's art. So have you figured out where

290
00:22:28,559 --> 00:22:32,400
that's going? I can't remember where
they say that.

291
00:22:30,799 --> 00:22:35,200
» I believe those are gateways that you're
referring to like the one that they said

292
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,120
they're going to be at different
entrances in the city.

293
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,559
» Yeah.
>> Yeah.

294
00:22:37,919 --> 00:22:44,960
» That's not with our board. um in our
master plan we identify having g at

295
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:51,360
gateways so it's great somebody's going
to do it um but that's um currently that

296
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:54,000
we haven't had conversations about that
yet

297
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:59,120
» so I wouldn't know

>> Chair Wy?

309
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:44,640
» Yes.
>> Unanimous vote. Chair.

310
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,960
» Thank you very much. Thank you everyone.
Great questions.

311
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:54,720
» Oh, great presentation. Just just for
the record, do we have to include the

312
00:23:52,159 --> 00:23:59,240
language that also it included the
approval of ordinance 4283?

313
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:05,600
» I believe the motion referenced um
ordinance 4283.

314
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:10,880
So I think I think you're good there.
And for clarification of the record,

315
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:18,480
ordinance number 4283 as proposed and
drafted by staff includes the discussed

316
00:24:14,559 --> 00:24:22,400
um changes to chapter 32 of the code.
It does include it. Got it.

317
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:26,480
» Just want to make sure. Um, let's move
on to item eight. Then we have workshop

318
00:24:24,159 --> 00:24:30,640
items.
>> Workshop.

319
00:24:29,279 --> 00:24:34,360
» Any public comments?
>> No sir, Mr. Chair.

320
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:42,360
» Let's move on to general discussion.
Staff updates.

321
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,360
We we have no

322
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,200
» any board correspondents.

323
00:24:47,919 --> 00:24:52,080
» No, sir. Chair.
>> All right. I have a uh comment real

324
00:24:50,799 --> 00:24:55,360
quick. I know we want to get out of
here. We want to make sure I know myself

325
00:24:53,919 --> 00:25:00,320
and the vice chair was talking a little
earlier about um you know making

326
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:03,200
beautifying the city is definitely one
thing that we want to do cuz we all

327
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:07,679
about progress in the city and
everything but I definitely want to make

328
00:25:04,799 --> 00:25:12,720
sure that um when the next opportunity
comes along and this is I guess directed

329
00:25:09,679 --> 00:25:16,159
towards uh city council that the next
time something comes along with

330
00:25:13,919 --> 00:25:22,080
education given the amount of money that
we're spending here now we should not

331
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:26,000
have any um dispute about education in
our community because a lot of our

332
00:25:23,919 --> 00:25:29,440
schools and stu students that are here
and everyone knows I'm a school teacher

333
00:25:27,679 --> 00:25:33,039
that we need to invest into our city
also far as education along with

334
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:37,120
beautifying it. We also need to make
sure we're educating it also at the same

335
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:40,640
time. So when it's time for the money to
come in to approve these items as sure

336
00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:43,679
as we want to make sure our city is
beautiful. We definitely want to make

337
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:47,520
sure that we're educating our city at
the same time. That's all I have. Does

338
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:52,400
anybody else?
>> I do. here.

339
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:58,159
I just wanted to know from uh staff if
is there an update on the items that I

340
00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:05,600
requested probably about two meetings
ago. Um things that the city could do in

341
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:11,840
order to help its residents. We are
coming close uh to property tax season

342
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:17,679
and I do know last week the Palm Beach
County Property Appraiser sent out the

343
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:22,960
trim notice to all property owners. So
I'm just wondering is there any update

344
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:27,000
on the the numerous items uh
recommendations I provided?

345
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:33,799
» Yes,
>> we don't have an update this evening but

346
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,799
perhaps the next meeting.

347
00:26:44,799 --> 00:26:52,880
» All right. Thank you.
Yes.

348
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:58,320
» Um, Mr. Evans, if Mr. Serbs also recalls
the little the amendments that we added

349
00:26:55,039 --> 00:27:03,120
to the contractors 6 months after the CO
after their CO, they provide us with the

350
00:27:01,360 --> 00:27:08,400
hiring
vendors to see what representation

351
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:12,720
beach. I am sure by now we've had
several projects to include Berkeley

352
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:17,840
Landing that have already received their
CEO. Just don't forget to update us on

353
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:24,320
the project. and the list the contractor
was supposed to provide. So the board

354
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:30,080
can see exactly what who they hired
vendors to ensure that our Riviera Beach

355
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:35,840
citizens
have a sheriff in the development

356
00:27:33,039 --> 00:27:37,520
profits.
>> Chair.

357
00:27:36,799 --> 00:27:43,120
» Yes.
>> Question um as a followup to um that

358
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:48,080
comment. Is that a condition to get in
CO that they provide that information

359
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:51,960
before or after or
>> was a condition of the develop?

360
00:28:05,120 --> 00:28:10,000
» Well, some of them have been finished
this close to six months. Just don't

361
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,960
forget just add it.
>> So it's a condition to get the CO or is

362
00:28:12,399 --> 00:28:15,840
it a condition?
>> When they come up when the developer

363
00:28:14,159 --> 00:28:18,240
came up here, we added that as a
condition to the approval.

364
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,799
» Okay.
>> That they provided with a list

365
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,440
» after CO
>> after six months after the C.

366
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:28,159
» Okay. Got it.
>> We come back to our team developmental

367
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:32,000
services and then they report back to
the planning and zoning board. The

368
00:28:29,919 --> 00:28:37,760
development you approved X.
>> This is their report. uh who who who

369
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:42,399
they hired, where they're from, and the
vendors so that we get an idea that they

370
00:28:41,039 --> 00:28:45,840
said they were going to hire Riviera
Beach residents and

371
00:28:44,159 --> 00:28:50,880
» the vendors the same to give our
citizens

372
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:54,080
a little piece of the pie per se. Um and
then we just want to see is that are

373
00:28:52,399 --> 00:28:58,559
they doing what what they said they
would do.

374
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,919
» Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Thank you,
>> Mr. Chair.

375
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:08,240
» Yes.
>> May I ask one question? I passed by um

376
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:15,120
11th Street right off of uh 13th Street
and I saw um

377
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:20,279
Mr. Ezra Setfold
sign on the

378
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:27,360
What is that? Because it did did it come
before planning and zoning? Maybe I was

379
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:33,520
out that week. I'm not sure. But I'm
trying to find out how did he get that

380
00:29:30,559 --> 00:29:37,039
project? What was the process? Because
it didn't come through planning and

381
00:29:35,039 --> 00:29:41,200
zoning. I mean, I never heard I was
shocked. I had to stop and go back and

382
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:46,080
and I love Ezra, don't don't get me
wrong, but how did he acquire this

383
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:50,799
project with it not been vetted out
between planning and zoning?

384
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:54,559
» Yes,
>> that's the Bill project.

385
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:58,240
» That's the what?
>> The CRA's Bill of LA project.

386
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:05,520
» Okay.
So that's um the town home project

387
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:07,279
in the first phase um and they have
started construction.

388
00:30:06,799 --> 00:30:11,760
» Okay.
>> And that went before the planning

389
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:14,760
building in 2024.
>> Okay.

390
00:30:15,279 --> 00:30:24,559
» Okay. Okay. So did they send out a RFP
or whatever to get um

391
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:30,399
builders? How how did he acquire that? I
I don't remember. How did he how did he

392
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:35,919
acquire that or did other people have a
chance to bid on that or was it just

393
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:44,880
given to him? How how did that go?
>> I believe what they did

394
00:30:38,799 --> 00:30:51,440
» a public bid where the plan and then
contractors provide a bid. But I I

395
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:56,159
couldn't say for sure cuz um
but I believe they did a a a bid uh for

396
00:30:54,559 --> 00:31:01,440
construction.
>> It was a bid for the construction. Yes.

397
00:30:58,799 --> 00:31:06,799
» How many people bidded for that project?
>> I'm afraid I I wouldn't have that

398
00:31:03,039 --> 00:31:11,919
information. I don't know.
>> You don't have the information?

399
00:31:08,399 --> 00:31:16,320
» No, that because it's the CRA's project.
>> I have to go to the CRA and ask us ask

400
00:31:14,799 --> 00:31:22,000
this.
That's just okay. I I just passed by

401
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:26,399
that day and I Well, I remember the
whatever it is uh because it did come

402
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:31,360
through. Um I think we did. Didn't we
talk about that project? I think we did

403
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:36,000
not look like it was not too long ago we
tal talked about it and already they

404
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:42,000
have the thing draped around ready to
go. I mean it was just that quick.

405
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:45,120
» Yeah. I think it was maybe seven or
eight months ago that they went through

406
00:31:43,279 --> 00:31:51,679
the approval process.
It's been that long.

407
00:31:48,399 --> 00:31:54,159
Okay. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
>> Huh?

408
00:31:52,159 --> 00:31:56,000
» Time flies when you're having fun.
>> Yeah.

409
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:59,919
» Yeah.
>> Mr. Evans, one more question. Mr. Evans,

410
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:04,080
what is the possibility of us getting um
someone from code enforcement to come

411
00:32:01,519 --> 00:32:07,919
into one of our meetings?
What's up with that?

412
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:12,960
» If we have a special if the board would
like a presentation or an update on the

413
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:16,240
activities of code enforcement, we could
schedule that for a future meeting.

414
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:21,039
» Right. I would because I would like to
have a I have a lot of questions about

415
00:32:18,399 --> 00:32:26,320
some items that um we discussed before
and I know the city is probably tired of

416
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:30,320
um us talking about it, but we have um I
know a lot of parking issues on some of

417
00:32:27,919 --> 00:32:35,279
our main roads where there's a lot of
parking on the side of the main roads

418
00:32:33,039 --> 00:32:39,440
which pretty much is deemed I I feel is
deemed unsafe. I mean during the time I

419
00:32:37,519 --> 00:32:45,840
managed FedEx, this was something that
was almost um was was not it was not

420
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:50,159
acceptable. So, I wanted to be able to
be able to talk to code enforcement and

421
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:53,600
kind of give a clear uh definition of
what we can and what we can't do and

422
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:57,519
what's enforceable and what's not
enforceable so we can understand it. Cuz

423
00:32:55,840 --> 00:33:01,600
I know I get frustrated a lot in my
neighborhood by seeing certain things

424
00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:05,840
being done and watching the dangers that
it presents and then nothing's being

425
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:09,679
done about it cuz sooner or later
something's going to happen and when it

426
00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:16,159
does happen I don't want the city to be
held liable for anything. Um, so the

427
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:21,600
parking within the rightaway is actually
the police department, but we could ask

428
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:27,440
for them to come and and present to the
board to to go through um the rules and

429
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:32,159
how what what's allowed and and the
enforcement actions that they do take

430
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:35,519
place to try and uh prevent misuse of
the rightway with vehicles.

431
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:40,960
» Right, Mr. Devis? I definitely
appreciate that if you can do that

432
00:33:39,039 --> 00:33:44,080
cuz I'm pretty sure not only myself but
so other board members have questions

433
00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:47,880
and of course the public would like to
be cleared up on it also.

434
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,480
» Mr. Chair.
>> Yes ma'am.

435
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:56,720
» Just one more question. I know we're on
the time frame but may I say happy

436
00:33:54,880 --> 00:34:04,799
birthday to you Mr. Wy.
>> Y happy birthday. a very very very fine

437
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:09,280
young man, a very brilliant teacher and
his mother who is my one of my mentors.

438
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:14,320
I know she would be very very happy that
she raised a fine young man and I want

439
00:34:12,399 --> 00:34:18,960
to say thank you for being the chair.
You have exemplified you were a little

440
00:34:16,240 --> 00:34:23,679
nervous at first and I had to kick you
into the bucket and you're you're just

441
00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:25,839
doing an excellent job, sir.
>> Thank you, ma'am.

442
00:34:24,240 --> 00:34:30,399
» And I want to say thank you, Miss Mr.
Fernandez. He's a wiz at it, so I don't

443
00:34:27,839 --> 00:34:32,639
have to say thank you to him at all.
>> I got a great evening.

444
00:34:32,079 --> 00:34:37,919
» Absolutely.
>> And you're a great person. And we thank

445
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:41,760
» We thank you. We thank you for just just
standing up for the challenge. I'm very

446
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:46,000
proud of you. And may I say happy
birthday. Happy birthday again.

447
00:34:43,839 --> 00:34:49,200
» Thank you. I appreciate it. Thank you.
>> One thing I can say that these birthdays

448
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:53,919
now when you get on the other side of
the hill, they they're going too fast

449
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:57,359
now. They're coming too fast. Like I
just yesterday was my birthday the other

450
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,920
day. off too much.
>> Want a motion to slow down?

451
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:03,520
» I want a motion. Someone make a motion
to slow down

452
00:35:02,079 --> 00:35:07,320
» every two or three years.
>> I second that motion.

453
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:14,000
» All right. So, we see the upcoming
planning board meeting is September

454
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:16,079
11th, 2025. Correct.
>> Correct.

455
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:19,839
» All right. And do we have a motion to
adjourn?

456
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:23,000
» Motion 7:07 p.m. to adjourn the meeting.
>> So move.

457
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:27,200
» Somebody going to second it so we can
call

458
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:31,000
Good night.
>> Good night. See you tomorrow.
