City Attorney Clay Henderson was also present.
Mr. Wallaced explained the special meeting was being called to help
meet the August projected date for the zoning ordinance amendments.
Mr. Nolan reported his findings in researching various cities and
their treatment of condominiums, such as New Smyrna Beach, Daytona
Beach, Ormond Beach and Bunnell. He discussed the requirements
each city had for setbacks, recreational facilities or money alloted
for this purpose, open space, landscaping, parking requirements and
height limitations. Mr. Nolan recommended the open space requirement
should be determined by the levels of the building, set a percentage
and base everything from that requirement to determine the landscaping,
etc. He further recommended following the pattern of New Smyrna
Beach where they treat condominiums under the multi-family requirements.
The City Attorney read from the State Statutes concerning the con-
formance with the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Henderson stated the
Attorney General has given an opinion that when an amendment to the
zoning ordinance affects more than 5% of the territory of the
municipality then the full rezoning procedures must be adhered to,
including dual advertising, two public hearings, quarter page ads,
etc., therefore making it impossible to meet the August projected
date for the amendments. As a beginning, Mr. Henderson recommended
the Board set a public hearing and invite all interested parties
to make suggestions for these changes. The end result would be
a new zoning ordinance and zoning map upon adoption by the Council.
The Board felt the two areas that needed immediate consideration
were condominiums and the concept of Riverside Drive.
Mr. Henderson presented a Tentative Schedule for Zoning Ordinance
Review which included the proposed ordinance and amendments which
the Board had previously discussed.
Mr. Nolan made a motion to take time to study the report by the
Attorney and set up a workshop to discuss condominiums, landscaping
and trees. Mr. Wheeler seconded the motion.
The Board set a workshop for August 26th at 7:00 P.M.
There was further discussion concerning the meetings for September,
since a special Council meeting would be held on the regular meeting
day. The Board agreed that the September meetings would be held on
the 9th and 23rd at 7:00 P.M. in the Community Center.
Upon roll call the motion CARRIED 7-0.

COMMUNICATIONS
The Board discussed the letter from James C. Carder requesting their
consideration of allowing townhouse development as a new permitted
use in the B-5 zoning district. There was further discussion of
condominiums being included under the R-4, R-5 and R-5A zoning
districts, and in the Subdivision Ordinance.
Mr. Wheeler made a motion to table the letter from Mr. Carder until
they receive further information. Mr. Kroman seconded the motion.
Upon roll call the motion CARRIED 7-0.
NEW BUSINESS
Mr. McKillop reported on the application of street numbers and names
to new developments. He stated at the present time these are being
applied by the Utilities Department and this eliminates the
possibility of duplication.
ADJOURN
Mr. Nolan made a motion to adjourn the meeting, which was seconded
by Mr. Kroman. The meeting was adjourned.
