Auto Repair: Mr. Smith, the authorized representative, was present to discuss
the site plan. Mr. Wheeler asked why this had been sent to the Board of Adjustment
prior to going to the Planning and Zoning Board. The Secretary stated the applicant
had requested and received a variance on the rear setback. Mr. Wheeler and Mr.
Mackie felt the Planning and Zoning Board should have heard the request first.
The Secretary explained the Code Book stated variance requests, except for sub-
divisions, went to the Board of Adjustment, not the Planning and Zoning Board.
Mr. Wheeler went through the Department Head checklist and the City Engineer's
report. Mr. Wheeler noted there were still problems with the engineering.
The Board discussed the driveways, parking, swales and the utility easement at
the rear of the property.
Mr. Rossiter moved to approve the site plan pending approval by the City Engineer,
seconded by Mr. Mackie. Motion Carried 5-0.

Bohner, Attorney, was present to discuss the final plat. Mr. Geil was unable to
attend the meeting. A letter of authorization was presented to the Board.
Mr. Wheeler read through the Department Head comments. The Boara was concerned
because there was no buffer at the cul-de-sac to keep traffic from using the
easement to Riverside Drive. The Board discussed numerous ways to deter vehicular
traffic on the easement to Riverside Drive with Mr. Bohner, including barricades
and signs.

SD-86-2 Riverview Court Subdivision continued... Mr. Mackie moved to
approve the final plat, but "that there be an indication that it's a private
road, no trespassing, somekind of a warning, with the owner of the property,
a warning sign that there would be no through traffic. Mr. Rossiter seconded
the motion. Motion Carried 5-0.
OLD BUSINESS:
Junkyards Section 11: Mr. Wheeler stated the only information available was
the agreement the City Attorney had drawn up with the auto recycling business
on Old County Road. Mr. Wheeler felt all the Board needed to do was give their
opinion of the agreement. The Secretary informed the Board a copy of the agreement
was not yet available, but the conditions were listed in the minutes of the last
meeting. She recalled Mr. DiLeva and the City Attorney had been present at that
meeting to discuss this with the Board. Mr. Mackie did not know why the Board
needed to update the section when the City had an agreement with the auto recycling
business. The Secretary explained the agreement was drawn up because section 11
of the Code Book was outdated and anyone wishing to have a junkyard should have to
follow the same rules and regulations.
Some of the Board members were upset because the City Attorney was not present
to discuss this. Mr. Wheeler suggested tabling this until more information and
the City Attorney was available. Mr. Loeffler felt all of section 11 should be
reviewed for update, because it was written twenty-one (21) years ago.
The Board agreed the section needed to be updated with Mr. Fischer, the City
Attorney, Mr. Jones, Mr. DiLeva and Mrs. Wadsworth being included at the meetings
involving the revisions.
Mr. Loeffler moved to table this, seconded by Mr. Mackie. Motion Carried 5-0.
NEW BUSINESS:
R. Chapin Zoning Text Amendment Recording Studios Use Permitted Use In B-2:
There was no representative present to discuss this item. The Secretary stated
the applicant had been notified. Mr. Mackie moved to table this, seconded by
Mr. Loeffler. Motion Carried 5-0.
Cherokee Ridge Subdivision Building Permits Issued For Homes With Hangers/Garages R-l:
Mr. Mackie stated there were hangers attached to the homes. Mr. Wheeler stated
Mr. Prater was pushing this item, and had request the Planning and Zoning Board look
into the situation. Mr. Wheeler stated Mr. Prater was supposed to be at this
meeting.
The Board discussed the "buffer" and the fact the airstrip and hangers should have
been discussed at the time of annexation, because the hangers could have been
addressed in the Code Book at that time.
Mr. Mackie felt the hangers could be dangerous, because of the residential area
and the fuel that is stored for the planes. Mr. Wheeler added the property owners
did not have a permit to park planes in their garages. Mr. Mackie stated the
neighbors were complaining, and he was waiting for a call regarding insurance
problems. Mr. Rossiter felt it brought up the property values surrounding the
area. Mr. Wheeler felt the City failed to put a "buffer" between the Massey County
property, where the airstrip is, and the property annexed into the City. There
was further discussion regarding the "buffer". Mr. Wheeler felt the item should
be tabled, because the City Attorney was not present to discuss this. Mr. Loeffler
moved to table this, seconded by Mr. Rossiter. Motion Carried 5-0.
MISCELLANEOUS:
Mr. Wheeler asked the Secretary about the Airport Hazard Area. The Secretary
explained, according to Florida State Statute, the City is to have some sort
of provision in the Code Book about airport hazard areas for any public use
airpark within a fifteen (15) mile radius of the City. Mr. Wheeler asked why
nothing was ever given to the Board about this. The Secretary stated there is
no penalty if no provision is made, so there has been no rush to do so. The
Secretary stated the City Attorney had recently been given the information for
review.

Miscellaneous continued... Mr. Makie stated the City Attorney must attend
the next meeting, and moved to that effect. Mr. Rossiter seconded the motion.
Mr. Wheeler stated he wanted the Board members to be notified as soon as the
information regarding Cherokee Ridge, junkyards and airport hazard areas were
available, so the information could be picked up, or mailed, prior to the
meeting. Motion Carried 5-0.
Mr. Loeffler asked if the Board would be reviewing just junkyards or all of
Section 11. The members agreed the whole section needed to be reviewed.
There being no further business to come before the Board, Mr. Quaggin moved
to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Loeffler. . The meeting adjourned at approximately
