MINUTES Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting of June 1, 1989 Page 2 Mr. Marder requested that the Commission consider reviewing the Site Plan for TCH site plan because the issues have been resolved, i.e. a tree to be saved and the relocation of the parking. Mr. Malone stated that if the people presenting their plans to the Commission do not feel obligated to cane before the Commission, then it should be tabled and the Commission should not consider it. Mr. Keith stated that it would be much better to table until they have a representative. Chairman Dennison stated that in fairness to all it would be more appropriate to table to give them an opportunity to come in and present their site plan. Mr. Malone reccnmended to Staff that the representative be told that if they do not show up the Commission will not consider their plan. Mrs. Sonnenberg stated that they are told this and it is noted on their application. Mrs. Sonnenberg stated that the Florida League of Cities has a bill before the Legislature in Tallahassee regarding mandated placement of group hones in single family residential neighborhoods, bills 1269 and 1061. There was something in the paper regarding an amendment restricting those with less than seven in single family areas. Mr. Malone noted the City has addressed the congregate living facilities. The Legislature in Tallahassee has taken upon themselves to dictate to cities what they can do. The big difference is Sanford has 1500 square fee and the Senate bill has 1000 square feet separatly. Mr. Malone urged each Commission to call their Legislator, to not let the State dictate to us what we as a City residents have to do. Mr. Sonnenberg stated that the Building official has asked if an individual in a GC -2 zone, who races stock cars, as a hobby, would be o.k. to keep then at his residence. He is a licensed stock car driver. He has been cited for non - operative or non - licensed automobiles by the Code Enforcement Board. Would the Commission consider whether or not he can keep them behind a sight proof fence? Mr. Dennison stated that since he is in a commercial zone, he personally does not see anything wrong with this. Mr. Malone stated that something of this nature should have a public hearing to consider the noise factor.
