Resolution approving the execution by the Mayor and attestation by the City Clerk of an Encroachment into Easement Agreement allowing the installation of two (2) gates within a platted public utility easement area located in the vicinity of 310 Blanca Lane, Tampa, Florida.
Item details
Background
The property owner of 310 Blanca Lane submitted an application to the City of Tampa seeking approval to install two (2) gates within a platted ingress/egress and public utility easement on Blanca Lane in the Davis Islands neighborhood. The application was initially denied or delayed due to concerns regarding preservation of utility access within the easement and objections from adjacent property owners asserting access rights. Following further coordination, the property owner resolved the third-party access objections, agreed to relocate the reclaimed water line at their sole expense while maintaining acceptable City access to wastewater infrastructure, and entered into a negotiated settlement with the City.
As a result, City staff and applicable reviewing departments determined the request could be approved subject to conditions ensuring the City’s continued unobstructed access to existing and future public utilities for inspection, operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement; preservation of full easement rights, including ingress and egress for City personnel and contractors at all times; and implementation of safety measures to ensure emergency vehicle access is not impeded and that the gates do not create hazards or restrict lawful public utility or emergency response functions.

- 01100.220900.351101 (Revenue) Amount to be determined based

- General Fund. Non Department. Civil Penalties.
Background
Florida Statute Section 316.008(9)(c) provides that a municipality must enact an ordinance in order to authorize the placement or installation of a speed detection system on a roadway maintained as a school zone and as part of the public hearing, the municipality must consider traffic data or other evidence supporting the installation and operation of each proposed school speed detection system, and the municipality must determine that the school zone where a speed detection system is to be placed or installed constitutes a heightened safety risk that warrants additional enforcement measures. The 2022 Safe Routes to School (SRTS) study was based on older data and served as the basis for the first schools site locations in the 2024 Ordinance. This study used a transportation-safety approach focused on infrastructure, pedestrian activity, circulation, crossing safety, and broader multimodal concerns. When the RedSpeed contract was approved this year, it included speed studies at no cost to the City. TPD identified schools zones with flashing beacons throughout the City and RedSpeed conducted speed studies as 31 school zones located at 29 schools. These studies showed a serious speeding problem at 18 of these school zones which averaged between 200 to 3,000 speeding violations a day over 11 mph. 6 of these 18 were included in the original site locations. This amendment to the ordinance identifies 18 school zones in the City of Tampa that constitute a heightened safety risk that warrants additional safety measures.
