Ms. Lebron stated that she had looked for lease property not far
from where she lives and found that this site would be good for her
business. She noted that the display area would basically be a
holding area. She now has 6 vehicles.
Mr. Marder stated that the applicant would need site plan review
prior to commencing business. The sketch that was presented does
not meet site plan criteria. Ms. Lebron stated that there are
several other car lots in the area that utilize the grass for
parking. She stated that the owner of the property told her that
the property was once used as an auto business. She stated that
she will be renting just the northerly part and that there is a
real estate office on the other side.
Bob Ball, 2220 French Avenue, stated that he owns the adjoining
property. He stated that he has found that with small car dealers,
to have any luck at all, they would soon have 20 vehicles on
property. He stated that he is concerned that the car lot will get
a little larger than what they say and parking would overflow onto
his property. There is a flimsy fence separating the properties
now. He noted that the State requires that there be a separation
of the display area from where the employees park and that this
property doesn't have this kind of room. Mr. Ball requested that
they put a 5' chain link fence on the north border.
Ms. Lebron stated that a State inspector suggested that a barrier
be put up. She put in a chain. She stated that she is not
planning to go beyond what she is leasing.

noted that it is consistent with the LDR, the Comp Plan and that
there is Staff approval. Mr. Skat noted that the car dealership
would impact the site. Mr. McClanahan stated that this is an open
economy situation and that the Commission could not tell people
where to invest their money. He noted that the Commission could
ask the City Commission to restrict the uses. Mr. Stogner stated
that this Commission has to regulate and that he is concerned with
how many car lots the City will allow. Mr. Skat and Mr. Valerino
in opposition. All others in favor. Motion carried.
