wanted, but if he went out of business for six months, he
could not start again.

and four acres on Georgia and Ridgewood which is zoned MR -1.
Chairman Harris informed Mr. Silverman this property has

Mrs. Stephens would like Persimmon, Second,Third Street and
Tamarind, the entire block to be zoned commercial, but
would appreciate any consideratioritthe board would give.
Mrs. Stephens presented a petition signed by neighbors and
adjoining business stating no opposition to the rezoning, and
would like to have it presented to the City Commission.

Miss Amy Anderson

Miss Anderson purchased property at 514 Mellonville and would
like to put a Real Estate Office on this property. The Block
on the north has been rezoned RMOI and there is no Real
Estate Business in MR -2 zone, which is multi - family.
P 4 Z Meeting

Page 3
The board is concerned with an increase in traffic and parking
problems in that area. Miss Anderson stated she could have a
back entrance, plus she's worked alone with no salesmen for
fourteubn years and could foresee no such problems.
Chairman Harris said once they rezoned an area they have no
control over it. She could sell out tomorrow and someone else
could build a business that would create such a problem and
there would be nothing they could do about it.
Mr. Dake says SRl -AA is a no commercial strip and if rezoned
RMOI it would open the door to business.
The board discussed the matter in more detail and it was de-
cided to deny the request for rezoning.
Mr. Dick Ashville
Orlando, Florida
Mr. Ashville owns property at San Marcos and San Lucas. The
problem is these are 50ft lots and 75ft is required to build
a Duplex. Right now in the Duplex there is a required 700sq
ft. living area and the same for a quadplex. He would like to
see 900sq.ft. for a two bedroom, two bath, and 40ft. deducted
for a two bedroom, one bath.
Mr. Dake suggested the need to study the area more.
Miss Rosey Robinson
2408 Cedar Avenue
Sanford, Florida
The property at 28th place and Palmetto is in the county, can be
annexed if Contiguous. Mr. Lin Risner suggested Miss Robinson
call the Building Department with a legal description and find
out if the area can be zoned multi - family.

Amy Anderson Realty
218 B. S. Park Avenue
Sanford, Florida 32771
Dear Amy:
As per our conversation on Friday, July 28, regarding the
40 lots on 25th Street in Sanford; I am going to be out of town
the first week in August, and it is my understanding that the
Zoning Board is going to meet Thursday, August 3. Being I have
not'had time to get my plans finalized, I would like it brought
to their attention that our intentions are to build medium
priced rental apartments on this property, townhouse type we
believe. We would like to know from them how long after plan
submittal it would take to get the entire, not ;just the front,
rezoned to R -3. Also, the 14 foot utility easement in the
center of the property needs to be removed altogether.
Your assistance in helping expedite this matter would be
greatly appreciated. Thanking you very much, I remain
Sincerely,
Jack Shubert

zoning.
