Members Present: Members Absent: Others Present: Mr. Arthur Harris, Chairman Mr. Victor Gischler Mr. Jeff Davis Mr. Edward Blacksheare Mr. Robert Karns Mr. Philip Logan Mr. C.B. Franklin Mr. Dave Berrien Mr. Rudy Sloan L. J. Risner, Zoning Official Mr. W.E. Knowles, City Manager Mr. Gerald Dake, City Planner Mr. Mack LaZenby, City Engineer The meeting was called to order by Chairman Harris, who then introduced the first item of business, a replat of Hidden Lake Unit 1 -A. Mr. Risner explained the only change was the 80' Right -of -Way change. It was previously platted as a 60' Right -of -Way. This improved the situation and did not affect the lots by decreasing of size. On motion of Robert Karns, and seconded by Philip Logan, it was moved to approve the replat of Hidden Lakes Unit 1 -A. The next item of business was a project by Central Florida Builders, to be located at the corner of 25th St. and Holly Avenue. Previously planned as an apartment complex, they would like to change the plans to be suited for a 16 Unit Townhouse Project. This would include a 6' high fence on front property lines, and a 4' high fence around the rear property line. Planning and Zoning Commission November 30, 1972 Page 2 He also agreed to put in sidewalks along 25th St. which the Commission thought highly of. Mr. Dick McCoy and Mr. Granville Sharpe, spokesmen for Central Florida Builders, were present to discuss these plans with the Commission. Art Harris stated that the fence on 25th St. does not comply with the present fence ordinance, and that if they would change their plans to show a 4' high siteproof fence on common property lines, which would comply with the present ord- inance, the Commission would approve these plans. Mr. Sharpe and Mr. McCoy agreed to change what- ever they were requested to. Art Harris ex- plained that the permit for this project will need to be taken out before the New Zoning Ordinance is passed as the density will be 17 Units per acre, and though they plan 16 Units, they do not have an acre of land. On motion of Jeff Davis, seconded by Philip Logan and duly carried, it was moved to accept the Site Plan for Townhouses at the corner of 25th St. and Holly Avenue. Mr. Risner presented the plans for a 20' x 24' building to be used as a neighborhood store, owned by Christine McCloud, to be located at 1306 West Eighth St., legal being: Lot 8, Block 8, Tier 16, Seminole County. It was stated that the zoning regulations require 10,000 square feet of floor area, and this building will have only 480 square feet when completed. The Commission recommended that once the New Zoning Ordinance is adopted that Mrs. McCloud submit her plans to the Board of Adjustment for a variance. Next was a general discussion on the proposed GC -2, General Commercial Zoning District. Planning and Zoning Commission November 30, 1972 Page 3 It was questioned whether a Paint and Body Shop is of a retail or service nature. After a lengthy discussion, it was moved by C.B. Franklin and seconded by Jeff Davis that it be recommended to the City Commission that Paint and Body Shops be allowed in GC -2, General Commercial District, as a conditional use only. All conditional uses will come before the Planning and Zoning Commission, and if found inappropriate for that particular area, can be denied. The City Commission has asked that the people should have the right to appeal a variance to them (City Commission). After a discussion, it was moved to recommend to the City Commission that the people still appeal to a Board of Adjustment, and that this is in keeping with the usual practices and is in compliance with the Florida State Statutes. It was moved by Edward Blacksheare and seconded by Victor Gischler and duly carried. Art Harris then read a letter addressed to the Commission from Mr. Hal Harris, in reference to Lot 10, Block 4, Tier 4, Town of Sanford, being located at the North East corner of Third St. and Oak Avenue. He asked that this land, presently zoned C -2 Commercial, be app- roved for use as a Paint and Body Shop: This property is located in downtown Sanford, and is in the vicinity of Hill Lumber Co., Miracle Concrete Co., Chase and Co., Stine Machine Co., and would like to erect a Paint and Body Shop at this site. Art Harris stated that Mr. Harris failed to note in his letter that this property is directly across from a church. The Comm- ission appointed Mr. Risner to contact Mr. Hal Harris and notify him that he can apply for a Conditional use, but the Commission would not recommend a Paint and Body Shop across from a church. Planning and Zoning Commission November 30, 1972 Page 4 After a lengthy discussion on Annexation, it was recommended that the City Engineer and the City Planner prepare a report with more detail on the cost of a collection system, sewer and water lines, and paving for the meeting on the third Thursday in January, which will be January 18th, 1973, for property located from the Grant Line to Loch Arbor, including Lincoln H6ights and Ravenna Park. At this time, the Commission will review all the over -all standards for Site - Development Plan standards and procedures. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. Arthur H. Harris, Chairman
