These buildings are replacing the buildings in Oviedo that are being displaced by the Seminole County Expressway Authority. The multi - family residential area is planned to be built 3 to 5 years from now. Chairman Carli asked Mr. Taube if he was aware of the recommendations of the Planning Director of Seminole County and informed Mr. Taube that "in order to buffer the existing residential development south of First Drive from potential noise and visual impacts, it is recommended that the existing trees along the southern property line be preserved to the maximum extent practical. It is also recommended that additional landscaping be provided along those properties as recreational vehicle development, dummpster and loading area to serve as extra buffering from adjacent residential development." Mr. Taube stated that they will have to clean out a lot of junk and it would be natural to leave a row of trees so this will work out quite well. Mr. Taube stated that the Expressway Authority has assured, that a bonafied offer will be made for the New Tribes property in Oviedo this month. Hopefully, a settlement can be made in January. The Expressway Authority has offered to lease the property back to New Tribes for 1 -year; so, the retirees can live there while the place in Sanford is being built. Phase I is to be occupied in 1990. They anticipates 10 to 15 years for total buildout. Mr. Simmons stated that each plan will have to have a self sufficient site plan. Mr. Taube stated that each retention pond will always have water in them. There are some artesian wells on the property and the St. Johns Water Management District will be plugging them this yhear. Jim Branch, Conklin, Porter & Holmes stated that the retention is proposed to be wet,laked. They do intend to make lakes deep enough to discourage the growth of aquatic vegetation so that the sun light will not get to the bottom. Mr. Branch also stated that an application is into the County for intersection improvements. There was no one else present to speak for or against the proposed rezoning. Mr. Morris moved on approval of the rezoning and the development plan. Mr. Davidson seconded. All in favor. Notion carried.

Mrs. Sonnenberg stated that there are quite a few oaks that would have to be removed but the way this one is located according to the tree survey, it appears as if it is in the direct center of the entranceway, she felt that if they could preserve the tree with an island that this would enhance the area.

Chairman Carli stated that the Board was making a hardship on Elder Hillery by forcing him into a non - conforming use. Chairman Carli said that by approving the site plan with parking overwhich he does not have control, if the parking disappears, he may have to shut down his church because it will be a nonconforming use. Mr. Simmons stated that both of the agreements for parking priviledges gives the church right of first refusal to buy the land. What the City should be looking for in a com- mitment fran Elder Hillery is that if the land is offered for sale, he will buy it.
