Spinos of 1655 Augusta Way, Casselberry, representative, stated that the owners had a truck - transfer terminal user for the property and that he did not feel that it would be harmful to the area. Mr. Tan Jimenez, 371 San Roque, opposed because he does not want a business in his back yard. The roads are inadequate to handle traffic, and there was no water and sewer in the area. Mrs. Jean Jimenez of 3309 Narcissus Avenue expressed the same concerns and stated that she had moved to the country to be away from the City.
