A. Fleet Block Rezone Discussion
Ms. Tammy Hunsaker, Deputy Director of the Department of Community and Neighborhoods,
provided a presentation regarding Fleet Block, which is located between 3rd and 4th West. Here
are some brief discussion points:
• Proposed zoning for the block is form-based urban, which is a new zoning
designation developed by the City's Planning Division. This zoning allows for up to
125 feet in height and a mix of land uses.
• The block covers 8.75 acres of land and the appraisal conducted over a year ago
valued the property at $37.5 million.
• The property is currently owned by the city and has no existing buildings suitable for
development, but it does have environmental contamination.
• She highlighted the City's master plan for parks, specifically mentioning the inclusion
of a new park on the block, covering at least 25% of the 3-acre corner portion but
clarified that the city does not own the southwest corner building, and its future
development would pose a challenge.
• Ms. Hunsaker discussed potential development plans for the project, including mixed-
use buildings and small-scale commercial spaces The possibility of engaging the
BAB in the development discussions were raised, and it was agreed to send a
representative to communicate with the BAB.
• Ms. Hunsaker is hoping to get in front of City Council and get their feedback on this
project as sib as she can.
Mr. Makowski asked Ms. Hunsaker if they have any plans to preserve the current murals of
people who were killed by police that are on the property. Ms. Hunsaker responded that Ms.
Ashley Cleveland from the Mayor's Office has reached out and has been working with the
families of the victims.
B. Special Event Permitting Subcommittee
Mr. Carleton discussed the All Star Bizarre that was cancelled at the last minute and the effects it
had to business. He stated that many minorities owned businesses were affected. The event was
canceled because it required a special event permit, but unfortunately, the necessary information
was not provided to the City in a timely manner, resulting in the event's cancellation. The
Mayor's Office is conducting research on the matter and expressed support for the formation of a
subcommittee where the purpose would be to evaluate the City's event permitting process and
make recommendations for improvement.
Chairperson Carleton mentioned that he had personally applied for an on-street permit and
highlighted the complexity of the process, involving multiple City departments. He emphasized
the need to streamline the process and avoid similar consequences in the future. Chairperson
Carleton requested two volunteers from the BAB to join the subcommittee. One participant, Mr.
Soud, expressed interest, and Chairperson Carleton confirmed his inclusion. Mr. Lyttle also said
he would like to join.
