SITE PLAN REVIEWS
SP-8224, Rev. #1, Carmond, Inc., Trolley Car Restaurant, NE Corner of
US 1 and Knapp, B-3
Mr. Hans Wolfer was present requesting Preliminary/Final site plan approval
of the Trolley Car Restaurant. Mr. Wolfer noted that primary business would
be drive through but picnic tables are provided for people to eat at the
premises. The Commission questioned landscaping where the property abuts
a residence. Even though this area is zoned B-3, the Commission felt that
since it was a residence there should be a landscaped buffer. The Commission
stated that they were in agreement with Mr. Murphy in that the building
should be a permanent structure and not on wheels. Questions from the
audience concerned paper cup and plate use, will Mr. Perry be allowed to
use the parking lot and how long is the lease for. Mr. Wolfer answered
that paper cups will be used and garbage receptacles will be scattered
throughout the site; Mr. Perry will be allowed to use the parking lot but
only after hours; and the lease is for a term of five years.
Moved by Mr. Towers, seconded by Mr. Hetu, and CARRIED 3-0, to approve
Preliminary/Final site plan 8224, Rev. #1 with the following conditions:
The Trolley Car be a permanent structure and landscaping be provided along
the north side of the future parking lot and along US 1.
SP-8225, Mr. Geil, Adult Congregate Living, Canal Drive, R-5
Mr. Geil was present requesting Sketch Plan approval for an Adult Congregate
Living Facility on Canal Drive. Mr. Geil noted that this plan complies
with the requirements of the Health and Rehabilitative Services. This
facility will be for 50 ambulatory patients and run similar to a hospital
without the doctors and nurses. There is a fire hydrant less than 500 feet
away, it will be staffed 24 hours with at least 6 people on duty at all times,
and it is not government subsidized. The Commission was concerned about
the canal that runs through the property and the facility only having one
entrance. Mr. Bennington suggested putting an entrance from US 1.
Moved by Mr. Hetu, seconded by Mr. Towers and CARRIED 3-0, to approve the
Sketch Plan (SP-8225) in that it does comply with the Comprehensive Plan
with the following conditions: City Engineer be consulted on the drainage
and the canal; Mosquito Control be consulted on the canal; Two entrances
be provided to the property; and EVER to look at the plan because of its
nature.
This information will be forwarded to the Board of Adjustments as Mr. Geil
must receive a special exception for this facility in an R-5 zone.

OLD BUSINESS
, Allendayle, Inc., Request for Water and Sewer
Mr. Al Davis was present requesting water and sewer service for Mission
Oaks. Mr. Bennington read the Comprehensive Plan which states that the
City could supply these services if the developer incurs all expenses and
if it doesn't distract from the service of the City residents. Mr. Davis
stated that they would incur all expenses and would also provide four
new well sites for the City. He noted a letter from Mr. Cross, Briley,
Wild stating that there is ample plant capacity to serve this project at
this time.
Mr. Bennington read parts of Mr. Wadsworth's letter stating objections to
granting the request; it noted that the City has already committed itself
to service for all of Florida Shores and there are several subdivisions
corning in. We must consider that the City is still expanding and we do
not have the capacity to handle any new large developments outside of the
City.
Members of the audience stated their objections to providing any water or
sewer service to anyone outside of the City. Mr. Bennington stated that
sewer service is probably more of a problem than the water service, but
according to Mr. Wadsworth letter, it does not comply with the Comprehensive
Plan to provide this service.
Moved by Mr. Hetu, seconded by Mr. Towers, and CARRIED 3-0, that Mr. Davis'
request for water and sewer service for Mission Oaks does not comply with
the Comprehensive plan and recommend to the City Council that Mr. Davis'
request be denied.
NEW BUSINESS
Mr. Bennington noted that the Commission had discussed in the past that
there are no single family requirements in the R-4 zoning district.
Mr. Bennington suggested that the R-3 requirements for single family homes
be used in the R-4 zoning for single family homes. Mr. Towers felt we
should wait on this change until a full Commission could vote on it.
Mrs. Winks noted that the Commission had voted to change Duplex requirements
in the R-4 to be the same as that of multi-family, but Council did not act
on it. Mr. Bennington asked for this to be sent to them again.
Mr. Bennington asked that a letter be sent to Council explaining the
background on the Landscape and Tree Ordinance in that both the zoning and
Planning Commission had passed it 5-0 and it then got lost in the shuffle
and was brought up again at the Planning Commission and voted 3-0 to send
it to Council.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:00 PM.
