Mr. Marder reported that regarding the joint planning agreement
with Seminole County, the City Commission discussed, on August 27,
several things that had to be done; show Land Use Equivalency
Chart, the City's land use zoning, and the County's land use
zoning. The City and the County is trying to accomplish a means
whereby when property is annexed into the City and has equivalent
land use, then development can take place without amending the Comp
Plan. The City has agreed to work with the County in reviewing
areas that have impact, regarding traffic especially. Mr. Marder
stated that most of the roads are in relatively good shape.
Unofficially, the City and County are looking at models for I -4
improvements necessary to insure that the 46 interchange is more
than adequate for a mall.
Mr. Brooks questioned the rationale for another ramp to dump off
Douglas? Mr. Marder stated that the plan is proposed to 4 -lane
Douglas and straighten up Markham Woods Rd. The Springs residents
are not tax payers. Mr. Dyal asked if the Commission had seen
preliminaries. Mr. Marder said "yes, only preliminaries". What
has been allocated in the overall cost is not adequate, everyone
recognizes that there is not enough money to do all improvements
necessary. The preliminaries do not touch up 46 A.
Mr. Brooks asked why did they not bring the expressway around the
lake instead of through the middle of the City. Mr. Marder stated
that there were serious environmental concerns, and that it
couldn't get through Deltona. Mr. Marder stated that it would be
impossible to build I -4 now because of the environmental concerns.
There being not further business, the meeting adjourned at 7:45.

FROM TILE SA WORD C Y PLAAWER
August 30, 1991
TO: City of Sanford Planning and Zoning Commission
SUBJECT: Planning Recommendation for Meeting of September 5, 1991
ATHENA ASSOCIATES - Request conditional use permit to establish an accessory
residential dwelling unit for security in an SR -1, Single Family Residential Zoning District
located between the Hidden Lake and Groveview subdivisions north of Lake Mary
Boulevard.
Site is known as the Lock Lowe Preparatory School. The site includes various one-
story buildings that are generally clustered on the lakeside portion of the site. An
open area of approximately 100 feet in width along the easterly property line appears
to be utilized for recreation purposes. Site is approximately 23 acres.
2. Site is adjacent to a small lake, vacant land and various single family dwellings Zoned
SR -1A, Single Family Residential.
3. Recommend approval of request for an accessory residential dwelling unit based on
the existing residential character of the area at the present time. Also recommend
that the proposed dwelling maintain a minimum 50 foot building setback from
existing residential units in the Hidden Lake subdivision. This recommendation
recognizes that the use of buildings may change over time and that the residential
unit should be located in a manner that would facilitate its being integrated into the
school for classrooms or another school function.
