place, the City must resume the land use applications that were considered in November
2
of 2020. We understand that it has been over a year since the land use applications were
considered so it is important to refresh the City Council and residents on the project and
the status. As such we propose the following:
• City Council Meeting February 22, 2022
o Staff Report - Summary of Final PUD, CUP and Vacation will be presented. The
Staff Report will be updated, as necessary, to reflect any supplemental
information provided by the Applicant.
o Conditional Use Permit (CUP) - The CUP will be updated to reflect the
recommendations of the City Council from the November 24, 2020
o A draft of the Purchase, Development and TIF Agreement may be provided,
however, it is dependent on the underwriting process.
o NOTE: No formal action will be taken. Recommendations of any changes to
the Final PUD and the CUP should be provided and direction given to City
Staff to prepare the resolutions of approval.
• City Council Meeting March 8, 2022
o Staff Report - A Staff Report summarizing any updates or changes to the
application based on feedback from the February 22, 2022 meeting will be
presented.
o Resolution approving the Final PUD and Rezoning - A resolution will be
presented for approval of the Final PUD and Rezoning Conditions may be
noted, including that the Final PUD and rezoning is conditional on the
execution of the Purchase, Development and TIF Agreement.
o Resolution approving the Vacation of the Public Alleyway - A resolution for
approval of the vacation will be presented. Conditions may be noted,
including that the Final PUD and rezoning is conditional on the execution of
the Purchase, Development and TIF Agreement.
o Purchase, Development and TIF Agreement - the Agreement will be
presented to the City Council for Review. Again, note that the final approval of
the Purchase, Development and TIF Agreement requires the project to be
through underwriting. If not complete, the final agreement may be
considered for approval at the March 22'd meeting.
• City Council Meeting March 22, 2022
3
o If any of the items presented on March 8' are not acted upon, they will
carry over to March 22, 2022 for action.
o Note - due to the timing of the funding, etc., final approval of all items
noted must occur no later than March 30, 2022.

The City has been working with Real Estate Equities since 2018 on redeveloping the above referenced site
into a 114 -unit senior rental project with 100% of the units affordable at 50% of area median income (AMI) and
below. The County is providing funding for the project to assure 11 of the units (10%) will be affordable to
persons at or below 30% of AMI. The units will be both rent and income restricted as noted below (based upon
2021 rent/income limitations since 2022 is not yet available):

Real Estate Equities received their bond allocation from the State in January and will be proceeding with
closing and redeveloping the site by June 30, 2022. Per the agreement, they will pay off the outstanding
bonds on the property (approximately $1.365M), pay park dedication fees in the amount of $342,000 and pay
the City's conduit bond fee of approximately $133,000. The conduit bond fee is unrestricted dollars and can be
used for any expenditure the Council deems appropriate within the City's budget and/or CI P.
In 2018, the City created TIF District 1-2 in anticipation of the redevelopment and providing assistance for the
project. The developer has requested 15 years of TIF in the form of a pay-as-you-go TIF note in the amount of
approximately $990,000. We are still reviewing to determine the appropriate amount and term of TIF, which
will be finalized as part of the Purchase and Redevelopment Contract that the City Council will review and
approve prior to June of this year.
Staff anticipates bringing the final land use (PUD) and vacation of a portion of alleyway on the property for City
Council approval in March, as well as the Purchase and Redevelopment Contract. Closing on the property can
happen anytime after that but is not anticipated until June.
BUILDING COMMUNITIES. IT'S WHAT WE DO. info@ehlers-inc.com % 1 (800) 552-1171

Snow Removal
• REE has multiple (5) snow removal vendors. Each community has a 2" trigger in which the
contractor moves the snow. Each community is provided with at least one snowblower and salt
spreader to keep walks and drive lanes clear.
• REE snow removal vendors are contacted for a monthly fee from 11/01 to 03/31 for snow
removal. Any event which occurs outside of that time frame is billed on a time and materials
type of structure.
• Any snow accumulation in which the amount of plowed snow exceeds the community's ability
to store the snow on-site; the snow is removed from the community for an additional cost
stipulated in the contract.
• City owned, community sidewalk responsibilities are covered in the snow removal contracts and
the responsibility for clearing will be in accordance with the local ordinances.
Trash Removal
• REE has multiple trash and recycling vendors and are contacted based upon either the authority
having local jurisdiction or upon existing vendors. All trash and recycling contracts are in
accordance with local ordinances.
• Trash and recycling frequency are determined by the anticipated cubic load per community. All
the REE Communities have at a minimum two days per week collection schedules, but the
majority of REE Communities have three days per week collection schedules. The timing of
collection is based upon the contracted hauler s routing of their assets.
• Trash collection times on collection days vary but are generally within the 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
routine workday. All containers are secured or removed within the normal working hours.
• Trash removal is based upon the anticipated cubic load per community. Generally multiple 5 -
cubic yard waste and recycling containers are provided to each community. Where parking
garages / trash chutes are provided, containers are in the garage, and moved to outside
collection point on the day of collection by the community staff.
• Containers which are moved from trash rooms / garages on collection day are replaced into the
trash room after the collection on the same day of collection by the community staff.
• Parking lot or surface containers have the same 5 -cubic yard sizing as the garage / trash room
containers. Specifications for the quantities are based upon the anticipated cubic load per
community.
• Parking lot or surface containers are placed into secure enclosures on a surface parking lot and
the debris from containers are removed by community staff daily as part of the grounds keeping
duties and responsibilities.
Parking Policy
• All residents must register their vehicles and are issued a parking permit which allows
community staff to determine which vehicles are authorized to park on REE owned surface lots
or garage parking stalls.
• All residents and visitors are strongly encouraged by REE community staff to use the provided
off-street parking locations.
• REE may or may not designate specific resident surface or garage parking stalls.
• REE will make reasonable accommodations to residents who request specific parking / garage
stalls.
• REE will maintain the appropriate number of accessible or van accessible surface lot or garage
parking stalls in accordance ADA or local ordinances.
• REE will work in conjunction with the authority having local jurisdiction to provide adequate off-
street surface or garage parking stalls.
Construction Logistics Plan
• Fencing/Screening
o Contractor will provide a 6 foot tall chain link security fence around the perimeter of the
property
o Screening of fence may be provided, if desired by the City
o The east -west "alleyway" will not be obstructed by the fence
• Lighting
o Temporary lighting will be provided inside building 24 hours a day and a small night light
is left on at the job trailer
• Parking
o Delivery vehicles, storage containers and equipment will be parked within the
boundaries of the security fence
o Workers will park along Spring and Malvern
• Circulation/Haul Routes
o To be coordinated with City's Traffic Engineer, but primary route is anticipated to be
Hwy 280 to Larpenteur to Eustis
• Dust Control
o Crushed rock tracking pads will be installed at the site exit locations. Roads will be
scraped/swept on a consistent basis when trucks/vehicles leave the site. Storm inlets
will be protected with filter fabric/bail logs. These items are all requirements of the
NPDES permit. Watering will be utilized during demolition when necessary.
• Vibration
o Demolition of the existing building will be completed with track hoes and small hydraulic
hammers and no pylon footings are currently known to be required. Therefore, there
will be no activities that will create a vibration level which will cause issues with
surrounding properties.
