COMMUNITY CENTER
Chairman C. Peter Hellsten called to order a public
hearing/special meeting of the Land Development and Regulatory
Agency regarding the comprehensive plan, Monday, April 30, 1990,
at 6:30 p.m., in the Community Center.
ROLL CALL:
Members present were Mr. Bennington, Mrs. Blazi, Mr. Fazzone, Mr.
Garthwaite, Mr. Hellsten, Mr. Klein, and Mr. Hildenbrandt. Also
present were Mark P. Karet, Planning and Zoning Director, and
Beverly Kinney, Secretary.
Mr. Karet stated that the Planning and Zoning Department had
received the Department of Community Affair's (DCA) objection,
recommendation and comments (ORC) report on February 12th, and it
was approximately ninety-three pages. Mr. Karet stated that in
regard to internal consistency, DCA commented that the Future
Land Use Map was inconsistent with the land suitability analysis.
This was .addressed by providing additional information and
clarifications. He stated the land use regulations for the
P.I.D. district, located in the northwest corner of the city,
will have to be rewritten to cover a hardwood hammock area.
Ecotone marsh and mangrove areas will have to be noted as
conservation. The School Board property (Mango Tree Drive) will
be noted as medium density residential and the county owned
property (Mango Tree Drive) will be noted as public/semi-public.
Churches will be classified as public/semi-public to allow for
more flexibility, because commercial designations are causing
problems. Friendly Shores Mobile Home Park was designated low
density residential/highway commercial. It is to be designated
as medium density residential. Property on Carol-Ann Drive has
been designated medium density, because a request for annexation
has.been received by the city which the Agency will be hearing at
the next meeting. Mr. Karet stated the intensity and density of
commercial and industrial property in the Future Land Use
Element, the annexation policy in the Housing Element, and the
capital improvements projects, are addressed in the response
document. Mr. Karet also discussed the adoption process, and the
provisions for vesting of rights.
Mrs. Blazi asked what will happen to the Code of Ordinances once
the Comprehensive Plan is adopted. Mr. Karet stated that the
Comprehensive Plan will take precedent. In regards to land
development there was discussion about using land use
designations in lieu of zoning districts. There was also
discussion about the prohibition of septic tanks in new
developments and the dispersement of septic tanks within Florida
Shores.
The members discussed the fact that they did not have enough time
to review the response document prior this public hearing.
There were various questions
annexation, comprehensive plan
designations, and septic tanks.

There was discussion regarding traffic circulation, limited
development of some areas in the city due to levels of service,
and density bonuses.
There was further discussion about the short amount of time the
members were given to review the response document. Mr. Fazzone
asked what action the Agency was required to take. Mr. Karet
stated that this public hearing was not required, and that the
only public hearings required were at the Council level. The
members asked to have their displeasure with the document and
the rush to review it known to Council.
Mrs. Blazi moved to continue this to another date so the members
could have an opportunity to review the response document before
making a decision. The motion was seconded by Mr. Fazzone.
After some discussion, Mr. Klein moved to continue until the
first meeting in May, seconded by Mr. Bennington. After further
discussion Mr. Klein withdrew his motion and Mr. Bennington
withdrew his second. Mr. Klein then moved to combine the May
meeting and the continuance of this public hearing which will be
held on May 9th beginning at 5:45 p.m.. Mr. Bennington
seconded. Motion Carried 7-0.
