The meeting was called to order by the Chairman, J. Q. Galloway, at 8 :00 P.M.
The Chairman asked the board members and audience to stand for a moment of
silence in remembrance of deceased member, Bart Gallagher.
The first item for consideration was a Public Hearing to rezone from SR -lA
to RC -1 lots 110 & 111, Sanford Heights, 401 W. 19th St. The planned use
of the property is a Beauty Shop, represented by Dawn Kiddy. Mrs. Kiddy
was present and said she wished to relocate her business to her home for
economic reasons and stated she can provide plenty of paved parking on lots
across the street. She submitted letters from 14 people stating they had no
objection to the proposed rezoning.
Mr. Ernest Turell of 201 W. 19th St. was present to speak in favor of the
rezoning because he felt the Beauty Shop was a good clean industry and would
be beneficial to the city.
Present to speak in opposition were: Mrs. H. B. Owens, 208 W. 19th St.,
Mr. R. C. Whitmeyer, 219 W. 18th St., Mr. Bruce Morgan, 404 W. 19th St., and
Vic Gishler, 224 -22411 W. 19th St. These residents felt the zoning could allow
undesirable uses, would increase traffic on a narrow street, and felt the parking
lot not desirable for a residential neighborhood.
After discussion, Mr. Miller moved to recommend denial of the request because
it would change the character of the neighborhood and was not in compliance with
the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Barks seconded. Motion carried.
The next item for consideration was a site plan for a 6,000 sq. ft. metal building
addition to Illuminated Lighting, Inc. in the MI -2 zone at 801 Cornwall Road, rep-
resented by LeRoy Robb. After discussion of the parking Mr. Foggin moved to approve
site plan with the agreement that at least 10 parking spaces be provided with paving.
Mrs. Roberts seconded. Motion carried.
The next item presented was a revised site plan for 2 quadruplexes in the MR -2
zoned district at 601- 603 -605 -607 and 609 - 611 - 613 -615 San Marcos Ave., represented
by Nelson Fick. This previously approved plan was changed due to separate ownership
and was granted a 7.39' variance by the Board of Adjustment and was now being pre-
sented for approval. Mr. Miller moved to approve the plan with the stipulation
that the water service will be furnished through a 2" service from Mellonville
Ave. or the contractor will tie dead -end water lines together as shown on the
engineering drawing. Mr. Franklin seconded. Motion carried.

The next item for discussion was a revised site plan and a request for a conditional
use of a 7,200 sq. ft. warehouse in the GC -2 zoned district at 220 N. Holly Ave.,
represented by James C. Lewis. After discussion of the 90' curb cut shown on the
plan and a possible solution to maintain the minimum curb cut of 50' Mr. Barks
moved to approve as submitted with the additional parking and a 5' x 10' landscaped
island between curb cuts to meet the 50' minimum curb cut requirement. Mr. Foggin
seconded. Motion carried.
The next site plan for consideration was for a 2,000 sq. ft. building for Dunan
Brick in the RI -1 zoned district at 702 French Ave. behind Scotty's. Mr. David
Adams was presqiat to represent the plan. After discussion, Mr. Miller moved to
approve. Mr. Barks seconded. Motion carried.
Mr. Sam Sears was present to represent a site plan and conditional use of a duplex
in the SR -1 zoned district at SW corner of 24th Place and Maple Ave. (2422 -2424)
The SR -1 district is low density and should be kept to 5 dwelling units per acre
and there was discussion on the problems involved by increasing the density. The
other duplexes approved for this area came under subdivision regulations and the
developer furnished the water and sewer lines to handle the.additional building.
Mrs. Roberts moved to deny the request because of the density. Mr. Foggin seconded.
Motion carried.
Mr. Kevin Spolski was present to represent a site plan for 9 miniwarehouse buildings
and 2 commercial buildings in the GC -2 zoned district at 2887,2889,2905 Orlando Drive
behind ABC Liquors and Honda. The previous San Situs development for this area
has been abandoned and a new Shannon Drive extension is planned. A permit from
D.O.T. will be obtained in the future for further development. The overall plan
was presented for approval of concept only with future development being presented
to the P & Z for approval. Mr. Whigham moved to approve the overall plan in
concept only, with specific approval of Phase I. Mrs. Roberts seconded. Motion
carried.
The next item for discussion was a site plan for a Real Estate office in part of
an existing building in the RMOI zoned district at 1621 W. First St., represented
by Ron Riggs. The three parking spaces shown on the plan were shown to be on city
property and permission must be obtained from City Commission only for parking on
the right of way, therefore the site plan could not be considered. Mr. Franklin
moved to deny the site plan. Mr. Foggin seconded. Motion carried.
Mr. Vance Taylor was present to request a waiver of installing a sightproof fence
as required on approved site plan of a new commercial building in the RI -1 zoned
district at 855 E. 25th St. Mr. Miller moved to deny the request for a waiver
because the fence was required on the original site plan approval. Mrs. Roberts
seconded. Motion carried.
Mack LaZenby, City Engineer presented slides showing different concepts regarding
drainage in Sanford and surrounding areas.
The Minutes of the previous meeting were discussed and approved. There being no
further business, the meeting was adjourned.
