Board and community speakers said they learned about a community meeting scheduled for Monday, Feb. 17 at 6 p.m. at the Peabody Auditorium that city staff and partners would host to review proposed changes to the Bike Week event guidelines. The city’s announcement named Jeff Brown and Rose Askew as discussion participants; the board was told the city’s economic development staff is the host.

Several business owners said allowing more itinerant vendors — particularly mobile tattoo vendors or temporary outdoor tattoo booths — would harm year-round, locally based businesses by drawing customers away during peak events and creating enforcement and public-health challenges. A Main Street business owner who identified himself as operating a tattoo shop said outdoor or itinerant tattooing risks infections and leaves the city vulnerable if temporary vendors cannot be regulated or inspected. Another speaker said itinerant vendors often take event revenue out of the local economy.

Board members also raised long-standing local concerns about downtown and beachside appearance, infrastructure and economic vitality. Speakers urged the city to give neighborhood boards earlier notice of event-plan changes and corresponding documents; several said they could not find the detailed materials on the city website and only obtained them after asking neighbors to print documents.

Participants recommended the city consider: clearer notification to neighborhood boards, specifying health-inspection and permitting requirements for temporary personal-services vendors, and devising ways to spread event activity so East ISB and other corridors do not become “dead zones” during Bike Week. Board members also urged staff to consider how event revenues might be earmarked for infrastructure projects (pier, lighting, boardwalk improvements) that supporters argued would help long-term redevelopment.

City staff confirmed the Feb. 17 community meeting will review proposed changes to the Bike Week master-plan guidelines and listed agenda topics including permit procedures. No formal policy change was adopted during the redevelopment board meeting; the conversation consisted of public comment and board discussion. The board encouraged residents and business owners to attend the scheduled community meeting.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Beachside Redevelopment Board - Feb 12 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Board members and local business owners raised health, competition and economic concerns about proposed changes to Bike Week master-plan guidelines that would allow more itinerant vending, including temporary tattoo vendors.

She said the city classifies the property as single-family and asked whether a previous rental license that lapsed in 2009 could be renewed or whether the property could be reclassified as two single-family units.

Board members and staff advised Knight that tax classification is handled by the Volusia County Property Appraiser and that she could appeal the classification to the Volusia County Value Adjustment Board when the property tax notice is issued. A staff member suggested she contact planning staff about licensing and accessory dwelling unit rules; the board noted those rules have changed recently and staff could provide the precise requirements.

The board recommended Knight meet with planning staff (and a named planner or staff member) or retain an attorney to represent her at any hearings. Doug Gutierrez was named as a staff contact who had offered to meet. Board members said planning staff or the county property appraiser could advise whether an appeal or license renewal was the correct path.

No action or binding decision was taken by the redevelopment board; the item was handled as public comment and staff referral.","A property owner who lives on Lenox Avenue asked whether a lost rental license could be renewed and whether a county reclassification could change a multifamily tax assessment; staff directed the resident to the Volusia County Property Appraiser and planning staff for appeal and licensing questions.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6334318,"Redevelopment board approves minutes; lack of quorum delays grant vote and frustrates applicants",294,710000,1004000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2296583-395635ad65fe3933d22292d7ec825bfb&start=710&end=1004","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2296583-395635ad65fe3933d22292d7ec825bfb/thumbnail_710000.jpg","/articles/6334318/Daytona-Beach-City/Volusia-County/Florida/Redevelopment-board-approves-minutes-lack-of-quorum-delays-grant-vote-and-frustrates-applicants","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6334318-1951d6ce5fe842015ddd23f7e03de86c/orig.mp4?Expires=1771213778&Signature=R7LyWKxAqF~srfoExcX-Db1J1A423zvEUrtjXtt1HLdmbOWGEKm~~BWaf7vOKDHEI9MANlIMiJFCbZ5e9Zx3jtUyOCrfYjyJR7l6zeRO6MiOes7AJDvKdtNYF5atq5fTJzSh-7CxLQsJi9xmJy0isfEpyT8YmupZZHwFRhpDZZBwhhaEnegsnz9TanG~qRZqqQiUHPzlStEPYiVI2PNUU~veQ-OMqVlWrJSNkw9Q8yH-KC20~XH8VIM8VLg8NMuRQOyychjeOMqVLgX5X4KezZw97VhM6fJDJcaGg9stTZfgaW8AZ0yHkns6Ignkl3CK6PbjZUoYnkl2-EdeWE~Odg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Daytona Beach Redevelopment Board approved two sets of minutes but did not have a quorum to take a vote on a grant funding request, board members and applicants said at the meeting.

The board’s presiding member called for approval of two sets of minutes — one described at the meeting as from Wednesday, Dec. 11, and one from Wednesday, Nov. 13 — and members voiced “aye” for approval. Later, the presiding member said the board lacked a quorum to vote on the grant funding request and asked whether the board should nevertheless receive a presentation. Several members replied that the board should wait until a quorum was present so absent members would be informed of the discussion.

The lack of quorum drew repeated public comments from applicants who said repeated missed meetings had delayed their projects. One applicant said she had to solicit two bids and feared extended delay for signage and mural work if the agenda item was delayed again. Another speaker — identified in the meeting as having an earlier application (Mr. Biddoff) — was cited as an example of an application delayed by previous failures to reach quorum.

Angela, a redevelopment staff member who handles application review and the grant account, told applicants that an item is scheduled for the board only after the application is fully reviewed and ready for placement on the agenda. “Depending on the documents and the status of your application, Angela will keep in touch with you,” a staff member said at the meeting. The board discussed whether program language should be adjusted to address repeated delays when items do not appear because of quorum shortages.

Members suggested recruiting more applicants and residents from the Main Street CRA and South Atlantic zones to improve attendance at board meetings. No formal direction to staff or ordinance changes were adopted during the meeting; the conversation remained at the level of discussion and proposal.

Board action: the minutes were approved at the meeting. The grant funding request was not acted on because of a lack of quorum; applicants were advised to submit completed materials for staff review so items can be scheduled when ready.","The Daytona Beach Redevelopment Board approved minutes but lacked a quorum to vote on a grant funding request, prompting discussion about program changes and applicant delays. Staff advised applicants to complete application requirements and said Angela would manage follow-up.","actionData","errors"]
