Chairman Dennison called the meeting to order at 7:00 P.M.
The first item on the agenda was the consideration of the
Site/ Engineering Plan for Rosecliff Apartments, a 168 apartment
unit development located at 101 Sir Lawrence Drive in a MR -2,
Multiple Family Residential District. Owner: First Orlando
Development Co., Inc.; representative: Douglas C. McBriarty, P.E.
Mr. Doug McBriarity, Commonwealth Investment Group, stated that
this will be an 11 acre, 168 unit apartment complex with 3 stories.
An extension of 1300 to 1400 feet of water line down Lake Mary
Blvd. will be done which will subsequently be turned over to the
City. Also site improvements will be accomplished along Lake Mary
Blvd.
Mr. Marder presented a letter from Steve Decker, Seminole County,
to Bill Simmons regarding the site. He stated that there had been
a little bit of miscommunication on the improvements. The County
is requiring a right turn lane from the west bound of Lake Mary
Blvd. The County requires this right turn lane and the City wants
it.
Mr. McBriarty stated that a traffic study was done and it did not
warrant a right turn lane, but that they do not have any choice and
will comply with installing the turn lane. Mr. McBriarty stated
that this will be built all at one time.

Mr. McBr.iarty stated that they have concurred with the matter of
the Letter of Credit. Florida Power & Light will have to let them
know the amount.
Mr. Simmons stated that the County did not want the construction of
the sidewalks at this time because of future widening Lake Mary
Blvd. A considerable number of trees will have to be taken out.
The turn lane is critical because of the whole subdivision will be
served by the one road and could not be put off. The sidewalk will
be a part of the Lake Mary Blvd. improvement construction.
Mr. LeRoy stated that he is concerned with the cypress fence
screening. In the past this was not allowed. He would prefer to
see block screening at least on the Lake Mary Blvd. side because of
the dumpster.
Mr. Simmons stated that he has less of a problem with wood fencing
around the dumpsters because of the level of service, suspect
tenant pressure to keep this area maintained.
Mr. McBriarty stated that this apartment complex will be different
from what is existing in the area because of the entryways and
porches, and that it will be three stories.
Mr. Owens moved on approval. Seconded by Mr. Keith. All in favor.
Motion carried.
The next item on the agenda was the consideration of the site plan
for Sanford Motel, a 71 room motel located at 3401 Orlando Drive in
a GC -2, General Commercial District. Owner: Ishwar R. Naran;
representative: Michael D. Cavanaugh.
Mr. LeRoy moved to table due to lack of representation. Seconded
by Mr. Dyal, Mr. Keith, Mr. Owens. All in favor. Motion carried.
The Chairman introduced and welcomed Ms. Cathryn Welch to the
Planning and zoning Commission.
Ajourned at 7:15.
