Also present was City Manager Knowles. Dr. Vincent Roberts appeared before the Board stating that he had recently purchased the old Coca Cola Building on the southwest corner of East First Street and San Juan Avenue whereby he requested that consideration be given regarding the feasibility of rezoning in this area from an R -3 multiple family dwelling district to that of commercial. He stated that, so far, nothing definite was slated for the use of the building. However, several approaches had been made regarding the following uses: 1) A 200 -bed completely equipped surgical hospital (with the exception of perishables such as foods and narcotics). Would be for medical emergencies and would be under the Director of Civil Defense and Director of Public Health. It would be used as an accessory unit to the Seminole Memorial Hospital in times of need; there would be no patients; a unit for "draw -on" supplies, with the federal government replacing the supplies. 2) Frontof building could be used for office spaces, professional, etc. 3)- Yum -Yum Shop (ice cream parlor, serving sandwiches, etc.). 4) Possibility of State offices locating here in Sanford within the next 30 to 60 days. 5) Warehouse /storage. Dr. Roberts stated that he felt that should any option on the building present itself in the near future, he would not want a zoning holdup. e B a k. i „er Z & P minutes 6/17/65 2 The Board members discussed the general area and possible rezoning applicable under the above circumstances. It was felt that the building, when its use was re- activated, would eventually have to be on the lines of a commercial use. After due consideration, Mr. Harris moved to recommend to the City Commission that the following area be considered for rezoning from that of R -3 to C-2 - multiple family to general commercial: --- Beginning at Locust Avenue and East First Street. Run E on First Street to San Carlos; south on San Carlos to a point opposite of the N boundary of the Tiers of Lots lying N of 2nd Street; thence Westerly on the N boundary of said Tier of Lots to Locust Avenue; thence N to the point of beginning. (this being south of East lst Street, from lst to 2nd Street; between Locust and San Carlos Avenues) z 4 �.a v� Included in the recommendation was a public hearing to be held on July 1, 1965, by the Zoning and Planning Commission. The motion was seconded by Mr. Wharton and carried unanimously. There being no further business at hand, the meeting adjourned. Chai Secretary
