TEMPLE 'POWERS /OCOEE TOWERS PROPOSAL
Mr. Walter Sims, Realtor and Developer, 22 W. Lake Beauty Dr., Orlando, 32802,
representing Temple Towers, 1008 Dixie Highway, Vero Beach, 32960, which is a cor-
poration not for profit sponsored by the Baptist Church in Vero Beach to establish
retirement hones for well -to-do elderly, advised that they propose to purchase the
Hudson and Mitchell properties on Lake Blanchard and construct a 110' high retirement
home with approximately 280 lining spaces and an observation deck. (Lake Blanchard
Lir is shown on current maps as Lake Bennett.)
City Building Official Cecil Hurst pointed out that a hearing before the Board
of Adjustment would be necessary because the height of the building, the proposed
parking ratio and size of apartments each require a variance. There was a brief
discussion regarding amending Zoning Ordinance to acconodate high -rise construction
which will be further considered at a work session.
Chairman Breeze advised that those certain areas pertaining to tax responsibility,
sewer availability and road access, though commission matters to resolve, still need
to be given consideration.
Mr. Sanders moved to recommend to commission approval of Temple Towers, Inc.
proposal. Mr. Lande seconded and vote was unanimous in favor. The Planning and
Zoning Board further agreed that its recommendation to the City Commission should
direct attention to the areas of living unit ownership and taxability, sewer availa-
bility and access from Highway 50, which were not adequately explained by Mr. Sims.
