Nova Rd, Daytona Beach, representing the applicants discussed the upgrades made to the Mango Tree Estates Park and the park facilities. The owners have reviewed the comments from Staff and Ms. Hanson stated they have no problems with these additions. Ms. Plaskett discussed the Technical Revie~ Committee recommendations and specifically addressed the need for a 6 foot high decorative wall surrounding the project, except on Park Avenue and in the visibility triangle on Park Avenue and Carol Ann Drive.

Chairman Garthwaite asked for questions from the Board. There were none. Chairman Garthwaite questioned whether there would be reused water in the development. John DaRe, owner, stated that an arrangement was made with Terry Wadsworth, Public WorkslUtilities Director, in that the Developer would furnish all the materials to the location from the plant and the City would furnish the labor from the plant to the property.

Motion CARRIED 6-0. OLD BUSINESS Revised Land Development Code Chairman Garthwaite questioned why the garage height requirements were not included in the revised LDC. Ms. Plaskett explained that this was a separate ordinance that would be incorporated but was not currently a part of this particular document. Ms. Clayton said that is was a separate amendment to the existing LDR's and that it would be incorporated into the final draft. Ms. Plaskett briefly described the history of the revising of the LCD. She said that originally the idea was to combine the zoning ordinances, the code of ordinances, the comprehensive plan and the Land Development Code into one document. Ms. Clayton remarked about the inunensness of this project. Mr. Masso asked how the upcoming elections might effect the adoption of the new LDC. Ms. Clayton replied that the Board would provide continuity and should act as the voice of the citizen's of Edgewater. She further stated that it was the purpose of the board to keep up with what was going on and what was important to the people of the City. Ms. Plaskett talked about the changes, additions and deletions in each Article of the Revised LDC and explained the new Articles to be adopted. She also introduced the planned zoning map and spoke in depth about the changes to the zoning classifications. There are currently 26 zoning classifications. The new zoning map would reduce this number by combining some of these classifications without creating any non- conforming lots. Mr. Masso asked what the procedure was to change the zoning classification. Ms. Clayton responded that if the combing were successful, no one would be out of compliance. This was simply a matter of refining and simplifying the zoning classification. There was much discussion on what zoning concepts the future may hold for Edgewater. ~ ...", DISCUSSION ITEMS 1.
