"Red" Cleveland, Airport Manager, next presented for review a site development plan for a Cringe Lab building to be located at the Sanford Airport. An 8,750 square -foot building is proposed,using 18 existing paved parking spaces directly off Planning and Zoning Commission November 15, 1973 Page 3 the street in the front and a provision for 30 off - street parking spaces to the rear of the building. The Chairman stated that this board could not approve off - street parking designed so that cars would have to back out onto the street. The City Manager suggested that the board take into consideration that the use of this building would not be the normal office use; 50% of floor space would be used for testing equipment and storage - not a use that would generate the need for parking space; there would be no retail trade. Considering the use of the building, there would be a need for only 26 off- street parking spaces. In discussion provision of landscaping on the site plan, it was brought out that landscaping would increase the problem of security at the Crime Lab. After further discussion, Mr. Karns made a motion to approve the site plan for the Crime Lab at the Sanford Airport with the provision for 30 off- street parking spaces to the rear of the building. The motion was seconded by Mr. Sloan and carried. Mr. H. J. Slabaugh of the Krystal Company next presented for review the site plan for a Krystal Restaurant at the southwest corner of US 17 -92 and Airport Boulevard. After review and consideration of the reports of the City Engineer and the City Planner, Mr. Loggn made the motion to approve the site plan with the following stipulations: fill must meet all requirements of Florida State Polution Control; all drainage on site shall be to the east into City approved catch basin; all drainage shall be approved by the City Engineer; increase the parking space size to meet City requirements and increase the turning radius at entrance; incorporate trees in a five -foot border at parking spaces, or other landscaping, and additional plantings around the proposed lift station in the southwest corner; install state approved de- celeration and acceleration lanes. The motion was seconded by Mr. Berrien and was carried. Consideration was next given to a request submitted from Condev Corporation of Winter Park, Florida, asking for a prelimi- nary recommendation for industrial zoning for property located on East Jewett Lane which they would like to have annexed to the City of Sanford. They propose to build a manufacturing plant to manufacture floor systems, wall sections, and roof systems for houses and apartments. After discussion, a motion was made by Mr. Blacksheare that when the property is annexed the Planning and Zoning Commission would be in favor of recommending industrial Planning and Zoning Commission November 15, 1973 Page 4 zoning.
