The meeting was called to order at 7 :00 P.M. by Chairman Morris.
The first item on the agenda was a Public Hearing to consider a request to rezone
from. MR -2 to GC -2 for the purpose of commercial use, that property located South of
Seminole Centre and East of Gregory Mobile Homes. Owner: Seminole County School
Board; representative: Ned N. Julian, Attorney.
Mr. Carli moved to table due to lack of representation. Mr. Keith seconded. All in
favor. Motion carried.
The next item on the agenda was a Public Hearing to consider a request to rezone
from AD to GC -2 for the purpose of an automotive center, that property located as
the south side of Highway 46 west of Kennel Road. Owner /representative: Dwaine R.
Klein.
Ms. Barbara Coleman, 121 W. Hillcrest Street, Altamonte Springs, stated that Mr.
Gabbai is out of town and Mr. Klein could not be reached. The plan is for an auto
center with light auto repair work. Ms. Coleman stated that there will be different
spaces for lease to different individuals, all automotive related.
Mr. Carli moved on denial. Mr. Davidson seconded. Mr. Malone stated that this is a
main corridor to the I -4 interchange. Hopefully, we would put some type of pro-
fessional building or build that area up with a little bit higher than junk yards
and used car lots. Mr. Carli stated that there are plans out there of hopefully
having a major hotel /motel chain in that area, or a highrise perhaps. Mr. Brooks
stated that since there are churches in that area, he would think the churches would
be more agreeable to the automotive center than to a hotel because the auto center
would not be open on Sundays when the churches held their services.
Eight were in favor of the motion, Mr. Brooks in opposition. Motion carried.

Mr. Marder stated that this is basically a conceptual lot layout because the engi-
neering questions have not been answered at this time. Staff recommended approval
subject to engineering questions being answered. Mr. Marder also stated that there
is to be an easement to maintain either side of the creek plus an outfall to the
creek. Mr. Reynolds stated that a 25'easement from the top of the bank would be
given for maintenance. Mr. Reynolds stated that he has a problem with the left turn
lane and the striping going to the railroad tracts on Persimmon Avenue; this will
have to resolved. DOT requirements a decel lane and the railroad tracts cannot be
impeded.
Approved by consensus the lot layout for Seminole Commerce Park.
The next item on the agenda was the consideration of the site plan for a temporary
office trailer use for Oyler Brothers Company, a landscaping contractor located East
of Upsala Road and North of Metal Manufacturing Company in Block 19 of M.M. Smith's
Subdivision in a CC -2 zone. Owner: Oyler Brothers Company; representative: Walt
Freeman.
Mr. Freeman, 1930 Silver Star Road, Orlando, stated that they have a trailer that
they would like to move onto the site temporarily. They are asking to have the
trailer there for 6- months. They probably will build one building but this is still
being studied. This will be a metal building that could be built in 3 to 4 months.
Mrs. Sonnenberg stated that recommendations from Mr. Simmons is that the Commission
approve it for one -year because there are other considerations involved in this.
They are negotiating for an entrance way on 46 and he feels that it might take
longer than 6-months. Mr. Freeman stated that they will not start construction
before they receive the entrance way permits. This site would be used to stage the
crews in the morning for the landscape business. Plant and container material will
be stored on -site. There will not be an office.
Chairman Morris asked Mr. Freeman if what he was asking for is for a temporary per-
mit to put a trailer back there, fence the property, store some materials, have
employees report there in the mornings so you can then send them out to their jobs.
He also asked if they wanted the employees to crane down that little dirt road off of
Upsala back to your property? Mr. Freeman stated that this was correct. There will
be approximately 14 employees. Their automobiles will be left on site with the
employees taking company vehicles. They will have a temporary parking lot on -site.
The company vehicles will be left there overnight. There will be port -o -lets.
Mr. Speer moved to approve for 6- months, not renewable. Seconded by Mr. Keith.
All in favor, Mr. Carli opposed. Motion carried.
Mrs. Sonnenberg stated that staff approved a small addition to the rear of Dr.
Bellhorn's. Cardinal Industries' small storage facility in front and San Antonio
Rose Cafe, 1008 French Avenue modified the parking and additional landscaping. The
deteriorated paving in the alley will be checked.
Mr. Malone stated that on the automobile alley on 17 -92 is bursting at the seam.
Particularly the new site plan that was approved for Avis. They are between 17 -92
and the hedges with automobiles. Also Seminole Ford and others. Mrs. Sonnenberg to
check on this.

are four lots fronting the highway, two on either side of the main entrance. The
two pairs of lots, on the lot lines have an entrance that they can get in and out
