located at 609 West 27th Street.
1. Site is Zoned GC -2, General Commercial and includes various activities
including but not limited to automobile and truck repair, storage, residential and
off ice.
The site appears to include several non - conforming structures and does not
comply with the City's landscape and buffer requirements. In addition, the site
appears to lack clearly defined on -site traffic circulation and parking. In addition,
signage on the site may be nonconforming.
2. Uses located adjacent to the site include a shopping center, an elementary
school and a veterinary clinic /hospital.
3. Based on automobile - oriented uses already established on the site, recommend
approval of the request to establish automobile dealer sales and automobile and
truck service provided however that such uses shall be conditioned upon:
a. Correction, to the maximum extent feasible, of site deficiencies and /or
nonconformities including landscape, traffic circulation, parking and
signage pursuant to staff site plan approval.

HARTMANN - Request conditional use approval to permit wholesale and storage (mini -
warehouses) for property Zoned GC -2, General Commercial located at 3505 Orlando
Drive.
Planning Recommendations - Page 1
1. Site is Zoned GC -2, General Commercial, includes approximately 4.63 acres
and is vacant at the present time. Site fronts U.S. Highway 17 & 92.
2. Uses adjacent to site include automobile dealer sales, a restaurant, a City park,
tire sales and vacant land.
3. Recommend approval of the request to establish wholesale and storage
activities in the form of mini - warehouses based on existing character of the
immediate area at the present time with the condition that all storage activities
shall be conducted indoors.
LOCK -SAFE SELF STORAGE - Request conditional use approval to permit truck
rental in a GC -2, General Commercial Zone located at 2650 West 25th Street.
1. Site includes a mini - warehouse complex with associated offices. The site fronts
West 25th Street or County Road 46A which is scheduled to be widened to four
lanes within five years. The site appears to be "walled in" on all sides.
2. Uses located adjacent to site include a community shopping center, a vacant
landscape nursery, a veterinary clinic and vacant land.
3. Recommend approval of the request to establish truck rental based on self -
contained nature of improvements already established on site and existing
commercial character of area at the present time. Also recommend that the use
of site for truck rental be conditioned upon staff approval of arrangement of
rental vehicles per site plan requirements and that all off - street parking
requirements be met.
AMERICAN PORTABLE TELECOM AT DERBY PARK - Request conditional use
permit to establish a communication tower in an AG, Agriculture Zone at 1701 Lowe
Avenue.
1. Site includes a City -owned tract of approximately 25 acres that includes active
potable water wells as well as recreational facilities primarily utilized for a soap
box derby track.
The site is bisected north /south by a 110 foot wide power line easement that
includes two structures with multiple lines.
2. At the present time immediately adjacent property appears vacant. However,
several single family homesites on acreage sites are located in the immediate
area in unincorporated areas Zoned Agricultural. An undeveloped planned
development known as Indian Trace is located on the easterly property line of
the site. The Indian Trace Planned Development is approved for residential use
with a gross residential density of eight (B) dwelling units per acre.
3. The "Missing Link" of the Seminole Expressway from 1 -4 to U.S. Highway 17 &
92 will be located on the north side of the site.
4. The proposed communication tower would be 166 feet in height. It is proposed
Planning Recommendations - Page 2
to be located on the east side of the site. Recreational improvements are located
on the west side of the site. In general, the east side of the site has poor access
and is not well suited to many urban land uses.
The proposed access from the south side of the site to the communication tower
is not feasible due to conflicts with soap box derby improvements and
elevations. However, the proposed tower location appears to be accessible from
the northern area of the site.
5. Recommend approval of the request to establish a 166 foot tall communication
tower at the City -owned Derby Park site based on existing public service
structures in the form of power lines and support structures already located on
the site and general compatibility with existing and proposed development
characteristics of the immediate area. Also recommend that the conditional use
approval be conditioned upon approval of a lease agreement between APT and
the City of Sanford as well as agreement upon appropriate access to the tower
location.

establish a communication tower in a GC -2, General Commercial Zone at 700 West
13th Street.

miscellaneous improvements fronting West 13th Street, Holly Avenue and the
CSX Railroad. Said improvements appear to be in poor condition and general
disrepair.
Pursuant to the site plan submitted by the applicant, the proposed
telecommunication tower is to be located on the easternmost portion of the site.
The proposed communication tower would be 132 feet in height.
2. Several communication towers are located in the general vicinity of site including
a monopole similar to that proposed by the applicant as well as a City Utilities
Department guyed tower, a private business guyed tower, a telephone company
lattice tower and a City Police Department guyed tower.
3. Various highway- oriented uses are located in the general vicinity of site.
4. Recommend approval of the request to establish a 132 foot tall communication
tower at 700 West 13th Street based on similar public service structures in the
form of communication towers already located in the immediate area as well as
the existing character of the immediate area at the present time. Also
recommend that, prior to the issuance of a site development/building permit, the
conditional use approval stipulate that the repair, painting, landscaping and other
appropriate maintenance measures be accomplished on the site pursuant to
staff approval of such measures.
