Motion Carried 5-0.
Sketch Plan: Subdivision 26.25 Acres (formerly Caldwell
Property): Mr. Hollis of Hollis Engineering, and Mr. Gallow,
Marketing Manager for the project were present. Photos of a
similar subdivision in Melbourne were presented to the Agency,
along with a sketch of a typical lot proposed for the
subdivision. There was discussion regarding the number of lots
(126), the price range of the homes, city water and sewer, and
the typical lot size. Mr. Hollis stated they would probably
upgrade the lift station. There was discussion regarding Silver
Ridge Subdivision which abuts the proposed project. It was noted
there was to be a buffer strip between the two (2) subdivisions.
Access to the project from U.S. Highway 1 was discussed, and
Mr. Hollis noted there were some problems, but they were working
on an alternative at this time. Mr. Jimmy Newell believed there
was a discrepancy regarding the correct property line abutting a
mobile home park and the proposed subdivision. Centex agreed to
check it out. There was some discussion regarding setbacks. It
was noted that lots 1 through 4 and lots 15 and 16 did not meet
minimum lot requirements. There were residents from the Silver
Ridge Subdivision present to listen to the proposal. There were
no other questions regarding the sketch presented. Mr.
Garthwaite moved to approve the sketch plan subject to correction
of lots 1 through 4 and lots 15 and 16. Mr. Hellsten seconded.
Motion Carried 5-0. Mrs. Plaskett asked if this was including
the proposed setbacks and Mr. Garthwaite stated yes.
Library Parkinq Concept Plan: Mrs. Blazi went through the
Department Head comments with the members. The members agreed
with the comments made by Mrs. Plaskett, and asked for this to go
to the City Engineers for a new concept drawing, as the one
presented did not meet setback, landscaping, or retention
requirements. Mr. Garthwaite moved to disapprove the concept and
send to the Engineer for redrawing, seconded by Mr. Denton.
Motion Carried 5-0.

NEW ITEMS:
Manqo Tree Drive and 12th Street Property: It was noted the City
Manager did not intend for this to be on the agenda, and it was
for information only.
Interpretation of Mobile Home Requirements: Jimmy Newell was
present for this item. Mr. Newell stated he currently had two
(2) campers on site and wanted to replace them with one (1)
mobile home. Mrs. Plaskett interpreted the ordinance to read
side setbacks were twenty feet (20') and end to end was ten feet
(10'). She noted the park is zoned MH-S, but she used the MH-1
zoning district for her interpretation as the MH-S district
refers to the other M.H. districts for requirements. After some
discussion the members agreed the question was whether the park
was being expanded by adding the mobile home. The members agreed
that allowing the mobile home would be expanding the park, which
is not permitted in the MH-S district. Mr. Hellsten moved to
agree with the interpretation of the Acting Planning Director
(would be expanding the park) and that the Agency could not
approve Mr. Newell's request. Mr. Denton seconded. Motion
Carried 5-0.
Arcades in the City: Mrs. Plaskett informed the members that
someone was interested in opening an arcade in the City, and
since there is no provision in the Code she was bringing this
issue to the Agency. Mrs. Blazi believed the population trend is
toward younger people and they don't have anywhere to go, but the
members agreed the idea would not go over well with the older
population. After some discussion it was agreed recreation
needed to be addressed for the 18 to 21 age group. Mr. Denton
suggested a youth center and pointed out industry may be willing
to help in the area of community services.
Setbacks for Pools: A memo to the members from the City Manager
asked for comments regarding the Building Official's request to
change Section 7-324 and 7-325 of the Code. Mrs. Plaskett
explained that a screen room with a kickplate was considered a
structure and has to meet the required setbacks, while a pool is
not considered a structure and can be built within five feet (5')
of the property line. Mr. Gartwhaite moved that pools be located
no more five feet (5') from an easement or ten feet (10') from
the property line, whichever is greater, seconded by Mrs. Martin.
Motion Carried 5-0.
Regarding Screen enclosures in section 7-325, the members agreed
with the Building Official's request from "acceptable screening"
to "acceptable screen enclosure". Mr. Garthwaite noted that a
definition of a screen enclosure was needed. Mr. Garthwaite
moved to accept recommendation to add wording of a "acceptable
screen enclosure" with a definition of a screen enclosure in
section 200.00. Mr. Denton seconded. Motion Carried 5-0.
DISCUSSION ITEMS:
Mrs. Blazi formally welcomed Mr. Denton and Mr. Hellsten to the
Agency. Mrs. Plaskett explained what RR-PUD zoning was to the
members at Mr. Garthwaite's request.
