The meeting was called to order at 7:00 P.M. by the Chairman, J. Q. Galloway.
The first item was a Public Hearing to consider a request to rezone from
MR -1 to MR -2, property located south side of Airport Blvd., North of Hidden
Lake Villas, West of Lake Ada. There was no one present to speak in favor
of the request so it was dismissed until the next meeting.
The next item was a Public Hearing to consider rezoning from MR -2 to RC -1,
property located at 1118 Persimmon Ave., represented by Kathy Bentley.
Ms. Bentley was present to speak in favor and said the property is adjacent
to RC -1 zoning and she wants to do upholstery work at the residence, with
the customers delivering and picking up items. She said she plans to work
at the location two to four days a week. There was no one to speak in op-
position. Ms. Bentley presented a petition signed by her neighbors, stating
they had no opposition to the rezoning. After discussion, Mr. Carli seconded.
Motion carried.
The next item was a Public Hearing for a Conditional Use for duplexes at
13th St. b Myrtle Ave. in SR -1 zone, represented by Kenneth Becker,owner
of the property. He said he bought the property five years ago and planned
at that time to put two duplexes on it. Since he purchased the property it
was rezoned to SR -1 and so required a Public Hearing for the conditional use.
The board determined, after discussion of the size of the property and the
size of the duplexes planned, that the lots are too small to accommodate
that many units. Mr. Miller moved to deny the request. Mrs. Roberts sec-
onded. Motion carried unanimously.
The next item was a Public Hearing for a Conditional Use for duplexes in
SR -1 zone, located West side Bay Ave., North of 25th St. represented by
Bryan Siegler. Mr. Siegler said the property would accommodate eight units
and he had a buyer who wants to put two duplexes on it.
There were five residents of the heighborhood present to speak in opposition
and said they were opposed to that type of rental unit and the increased
traffic in the neighborhood.
After discussion, Mrs. Roberts moved to deny the request. Mr. Miller said
that, based on the fact that the general neighborhood is not rental and
the size of the lots not large enough, he would second the motion. Motion

The next item for discussion was a site plan for Taco Bell at 2700 Orlando
Drive repeesented by Lou Blanc for W & T Investments. He said the present
buidling will be razed and the new building will be about 50 ft. south of
the present building, greater in size and about $175,000. greater in value.
It will have a seating capacity of 64. After discussion of the parking
spaces, Mr. Blanc agreed to rework the parking configuration to eliminate
the possible hazard with the first space off Orlando Drive. Mr. Willis
moved to approve. Mr. Franklin seconded. Motion carried.

The next item for discussion was a site plan for a residence with a funeral
preparation room at 516 Laurel Ave., represennted by Carrie Buettner, who
introduced Mr. Batts, the proponent. Mr. batts said he would schedule
viewing at this location. After discussion, the board determined that the
parking would be inadequate for this use, even with scheduling. Mr. Willis
[roved to deny the request. Mr. Carli seconded. Motion carried unanimously.

Group. He said there will be ten (10) 900 sq. ft. office spaces. Mr. Morris
moved to approve. Mr. Carli seconded. Motion carried.
The next item on the addendum was a preliminary site plan for Groveview

He said there are 352 units and 592 parking spaces, with the first Phase
to start in the next two months and the second phase to be started upon
completion of the first. Mr. Morris moved to approve the preliminary plans,
based on engineering approval. Mrs. Roberts seconded. Motion carried.
The next item was from the floor, a reuquest from a delegation from the
Jehovah's Witness regarding the feeling about a church in AD zone. They
have an option to purchase 6 acres on Pine Way, east of Mellonville Ave.
and the Zoning Ordinance does not provide for a church in AD zone, per-
mitted or conditional. There was a discussion and the board requested staff
to submit a recommendation on areas of the Ordinance to study for a possible
revision in the area of schools and churches in AD zones.
A memo was submitted from the Zoning Inspector recommending a rezoning plan
for Sanora based on the present density. The recommendation was to combine
the Townhouse & Sanford Ct. area into one MR -2 zone, leaving Units 1 & 2
zoned SR -IAA, and rezoning Sanora South to SR -lA.
Mr. Carli moved to recommend rezoning of Sanora following the outline in
the memo from Zoning Inspector. Mr. Miller seconded. Motion carried.
The Minutes of the Feb. 16th meeting were corrected to include the name of
Mrs. Roberts as being present and approved as corrected. There being no
further business, the meeting was adjourned.
