received rail service from F.E.C. Mr. Karet said the applicant stated his client's needs
had been satisfied, but he wished to extend this to all uses that are adjacent to the
railroad right-of-ways. Mr. Karet stated staff continues to support the original draft
ordinance submitted to the LDRA at the September 17, 1992 meeting.
After considerable discussion Mr. Klein moved to use the original ordinance, seconded
by Mr. Ewing. Motion CARRIED 4-2. Mr. Garthwaite and Mr. Hildenbrand voted no.
NEW BUSINESS:
VAC-9201 - Vacation of a Plat
Attorney Thomas Wright, authorized agent, requested vacation of a portion of the J.K.
Rowley Subdivision that lies within lot 9 of the Windsor Unrecorded Subdivision.
Vice Chairman Fazzone asked Mr. Karet to review the case. Mr. Karet stated staff
supports the applicants request. Mr. Karet said the Windsor Subdivision was platted
without regard for the old, undeveloped J. K. Rowley Subdivision which lays beneath
it. Mr. Karet said by vacating the portion of the J. K. Rowley Subdivision, which sits
within Windsor, will eliminate the problems property owners have faced regarding
selling their homes and/or acquiring title insurance.
After discussion Mr. Garthwaite moved to recommend to Council to vacate the plat to
include the J.K. Rowley Subdivision lots 1 thru 10, seconded by Mr. Masso. Motion
CARRIED 6-0.
Vice Chairman Fazzone moved to the next item on the agenda as Mr. Cichewicz had
not arrived.

Mr. Karet gave the background on the rezoning request. Mr. Karet stated staff
supports the applicant's request. Staff also recommends that the Future Land Use
Map be changed and the property rezoned and the portion of the Florida Shores
Subdivision that lies within the subject property be vacated to eliminate the alley and
individual lots.
The Board showed considerable concern that anything other than a residential zone
would produce additional traffic that would be a threat to children going to and from
the elementary school. The Board also felt 30th Street is already congested with
traffic and a B-2 zone would create even more congestion.
Mr. Klein made a motion to deny the request, seconded by Mr. Ewing. Motion
CARRIED 4-2. Mr. Masso and Mr. Garthwaite voted no.
V AC-9202 - Vacation of Plat
Bill Cichewicz requested a vacation of 4 lots on the northeast corner of E. Pine Bluff
and So. Ridgewood Avenue.
In the absence of Mr. Cichewicz the Board questioned whether to hear the request
and decided to proceed.
Mr. Karet said the applicant is requesting a vacation of lots 30, 31, 32 and 33 of
Fernald and Chadwick's Subdivision in order to create a single undivided parcel of
land. Mr. Karet stated based on his findings the Department of Community
Development supports the applicant's request.
After brief discussion Mr. Masso moved to approve the vacation, seconded by Mr.
Garthwaite. Motion CARRIED 6-0.
