Mr. Skat Called the meeting to order at 7:00 P.M.
The first item on the Agenda was to hold a Public Hearing to Consider a
request to Rezone property located at 3801 Mellonville Avenue from MI -2,
Medium Industrial, to that of PD, Planned Development.
Shane Murray, 1 W. S.R. 4 4 , Longwood, was present. He stated that the
proposed ingress egress is Mellonville Avenue, a County right-of-way, and it
will be improved.
Mr. Gibson noted that the development is proposed at 138 units into a total
site of 51.2 acres which includes 14.37 acres of wetlands. The Comprehensive
Plan has not been approved, it has been transmitted to the Stag recommended
by the City Commission. It was published and advertised to be considered for
adoption next Monday. The adoption Cannot take place at that time. The City
Commission will table it until such time as the State responds.
Mr. Murray stated that as far as the entranceway is concerned, they are
anticipating putting in some type of a decorative wall to separate the
entranceway from the adjacent industrial uses.
Mr. V nHerbulis noted that the plan shows the wall on the north and east sides
only, and not the middle section or the wetland portion. Mr. Murray stated
that this plan would be redesigned to accommodate certain lines as far as
where the wetlands lye as well as the existing Mellonville right-of-way.
Mr. Kutz stated that with an isolated PD Rezone there is no way to visualize
vehicular and pedestrian Circulation as it relates to adjacent and existing
approved Pds. There is no way to tell how this will affect what is going on
outside of the site from the standpoint of circulation and infrastructure. He
asked if it would be judicious to have some type of a broad brush master plan
that relates to each PD as they Borne up so there is an overall idea of what is

being done in the community. He asked if it would be judicious and
appropriate to have each developer participate, specifically contribute,
towards the development of a master plan.
Mr. Kutz requested that Staff bring back at the next meeting a list of things
that the Commission should, or would like to consider, things that it would
like to have more information on, more interested in, within a reasonable
proximity of each PD.
Mr. Robert moved in favor of the Rezone per all of Staff's recommendations and
in addition that the masonry fence as noted on the preliminary plat for
Magnolia Park, PD, the Master Plan, that the 6 high masonry screen wall,
shown on the east and north boundaries be brick veneer. Seconded by Mr.
VnHrbulis for discussion. Mr. VnHrbulis stated that a portion on the
south needs to be walled abutting the other uses. Mr. Robert withdrew his
motion and restated it. He moved for approval per all of Staff's
recommendations t include brick veneer or solid brick on the wall on the
north, east and along the southerly subdivision boundary where it is
contiguous with the developable lots. Seconded by Mr. V nH rbulis. All in
favor. Motion carried.
The next item was to hold a Public Hearing to consider a request for a
Conditional Use for property located at 750 W. Stn Street in a GC-2, General
Commercial Zoning District, for the purpose of expansion of a nonconforming
property, proposed building addition to an existing church.
Anthony Robinson, 1506 Southwest Road, and Steven Balint, 322 Hidden Lake
Drive, Sanford, were present.
Mr. Robinson stated that there are approximately 20 to 5 members of this
church and they have no place to get together. They need this addition so that
church members could have a meeting place.
Mr. Gibson stated that Staff has requested a survey because of the existence
of an alley on the east side. It is an issue and concern of Staff that they
do have the right to access their property from the east side.
Mr. Hipes moved for approval subject to Staff's comments and the survey being
conducted. Seconded by Mr. Kutz. All in favor. Motion carried.
The next item was to hold a Public Hearing to consider a request for a
Dimensional Variance for property located at 801 Cornwall Road in a MI-2.
Medium Industrial Zoning District, for a reduction in parking space
requirement: 64 spaces required, 49 spaces proposed, a variance of 15 parking
spaces.
Scott Sheffler, 1750 E. Lake Mary Blvd., Sanford was present. He stated that
they are proposing a new warehouse distribution facility. The reasons for
this request are that they are having to build an extensive retention pond

area, and that they will not need 64 parking spaces. The company trucks will
be parked at the dock doors overnight. There will be only one or two trucks
at the facility during the daytime.
Mr. Sheffler explained that they operate more than one shift. The majority of
employees park during the day. At the existing facility there are 30 parking
spaces and half is empty throughout the day. The total payroll is around 50
employees and not all of them work at one time. At maximum, he anticipates 25
cars at peak hours.
Mr. Sheffler stated that there is no proposed fencing near Cornwall Road. The
fencing will be approximately where the warehouse starts just after the
parking spaces, for security purposes.
There being no one else present to speak in favor of or against the request,
Mr. Hipes moved to approve striking the first of Staff's comments and
stipulating that if the use of the property changes, it would be subject to
the terms of the development agreement. Seconded by r. VnHerbulis. All in
favor. Motion carried.
The next item on the Agenda was the consideration of the Site Plan for R & E
Foods, Inc. a proposed 46,020 s . f . f f i e /warehouse at 801 Cornwall Road.
Jae Stepp, The Haskell Company, 111 Riverside Avenue, Jacksonville,
represented this request. He explained that the site plan is being revised
because of the strmwater lift station. DOT is working with him on
eliminating the lift station because of potential maintenance problems. He
stated that the only fencing is around the wet retention pond.
Mr. Robert moved to approve. Seconded by Mr. Hipes . All in favor. Motion
carried.
The next item was the consideration of the Preliminary Subdivision Plan for
Arbor Lakes Development (Burke Property) a proposed 40 lot single family
residential subdivision located at 2200 Oregon Avenue.
Bill Burkett, Burkett Engineering, was present. He stated that the
subdivision is down to 39 lots, not 40. He requested that the approval of
this request include language that addresses some clarity as far as the 25
undisturbed buffer is concerned. Ghat they do not want to happen for the sake
of the residents is for this to be literally undisturbed, meaning that they
cannot mow and maintain it. He requested that it be clarified that trees
would not be removed and the only improvements allowed within the 25' buffer
would be fencing.
After some discussion, Mr . V nHerbu l i s moved to approve the Preliminar
Subdivision Plan per Staff's recommendations. Seconded by r. hut. Mr.
VonHerbulis amended his motion to include that fencing would be allowed on the
south edge of the undisturbed area, no trees are to be removed and the
undisturbed area is undisturbed during the development, but that a fence could

be constructed in this 25 buffer. The amended motion was seconded by Mr.
Kut. All in favor. Motion carried.
Mr. Hobert moved to approve the Minutes as circulated. Seconded by Mr.
V nH rbulis. All in favor. Motion carried.
Mr. Kutz stated that the City needs a master plan. It needs a master plan
throughout the community and desperately downtown. The City has a 1% million
boardwalk that goes nowhere on both ends. It doesn't have any kind of a
document that shows, even conceptually, what it is going to be like regarding
traffic. The community has said that it is going to do some things in the
community and the City needs to make a commitment to those things. We know
that there will be piers on the waterfront, we know there will be a 1
million trail, all of these things are happening and nothing is getting
connected. We need to see where these things are, we need to put it on paper
and say this is it. We could move things around it, but everything we move
around it needs to be related to it, needs to enhance it, reeds to connect to
it, needs to make it all work together. There needs to be a reasonable
drainage plan that constantly moves every time a development comes in. There
should be some type of overall concept with respect to hove people and vehicles
will be moved in the areas that already don't work. We need to fix this. The
only way to fix it is to pint it down on paper and say this is the way it will
be as of a given date.
Mr. VonHrbulis asked if the engineers could provide the City at the end of a
project, a mlar reproducible and a digital disk of the project. With this,
everything could come together.
Mr. Kutz suggested that he get in touch with the person who did the master
plan for Savannah and see if he could come to Sanford and give the Commission
a presentation.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 9:30 p.m.
