Chairman Breeze and Board Members Cook, Sanders, Smith and Swickerath were present. Members Brooklyn and Colella and Alternate Member Linebarier were absent. APPROVALS Upon a motion made by Mr. Smith and second by Mr. Sanders minutes of the meeting held November 12, 1985 were unanimously approved as written. NEW BUSINESS A. Maguire Road Professional Park - Preliminary Subdivision Plan Approval Mr. Mark Grimes, one of the owners of the proposed park, and Howard W. Jewett, Civil Engineer, were present to discuss the Development Review Committee Report. Chairman Breeze explained that the goal of the screening board was to eliminate as many points of difference as possible. Mr. Grimes stated that he wanted to have the 10' strip of land referred to in Item 1 count as the 5% recreation assessment in Item 3. Mr. Grimes and Mr. Jewett both explained that the plan shows a road which was intended to serve as access to professional buildings rather than a thoroughfare as prior studies had shown that wetlands would prevent continuing the street on to connect with Marshall Farms Road. Mr. Wayne Dann, resident on Marshall Farms Road, testified that the State D.O.T. had surveyed and moved the site for Sunshine State Parkway six times because of muck in that area. Staff recommendation calls for that road to be Old Winter Garden Road Extension, providing for access to otherwise landlocked parcels. Mr. Grimes was willing to deed over to those owners a 15' easement, but the Board was adamant regarding adequate access and future service to the area. Mr. Swickerath moved to recommend that the project not be approved until right -of -way access for parcels to the west of project in question is guaranteed. Mr. Sanders seconded and vote was unanimous in favor. Mr. Sanders moved to recommend a 50' right -of -way through property with 24' paving width for the road under discussion, and, upon Mr. Swickerath's suggestion, amended the motion to include a qualifying statement i.e., if access to other property on the west cannot be gained on Highway 50. Mr. Swickerath seconded and vote was unanimous in favor. B. Sun Central Development /Bluford Avenue - Preliminary Subdivision Plan Approval City Planner Wagner explained that this item appears on agenda because the plan calls for a lot split and as such is technically a subdivision and must be considered by this Board. Mr. Swickerath moved to recommend that Commission accept the Development Review Committee's Report and approve the preliminary plan subject to compliance with that report. Mr. Sanders seconded and vote was unanimous in favor. P & Z Meeting January 14, 1986 Page 2 C. George C Johns - Adair St. - Rezoning Petition to R -1 -A ` Mr. Fred Beckemeyer, representing Glad Tidings Assembly of God, requested rezoning from A -1 to R -1 -A for Mr. George C. Johns property on Adair Street. Mr. Wagner explained to Mr. Beckemeyer that after the rezoning is completed it would be necessary to petition the Board of Adjustment for a special exception in order to put a church at that location. Mr. Smith moved to recommend approval of the petition and Mrs. Cook seconded. Vote was unanimous in favor. D. Story Properties /U.S. Homes P.U.D. - Informational presentation on proposed project N. of Silver Star Road and East of Ocoee Hills Road. Mr. John Sundheim, U.S. Home Corporation, explained that his company has a contract with Mr. Don Phillips for the Story property on Silver Star Road and he then introduced Mr. John Sikes and Mr. David Bouck, who will be working out details of development with staff. City Planner Wagner stated that the plans were under staff review at this time and that a report will be ready for the hearing in February. As this was for information only, no motion was made. E. Billboard Regulations Review - Sam Gerace, Building Official Building Official Sam Gerace pointed out several areas of conflict in the Zoning Code regarding signs (billboard and others) that need to be resolved and consolidated. Chairman Breeze said that the revising of the ordinance is long overdue and piecemeal changes would only serve to complicate matters more. No further action was taken as this is already on the City Planners' list of i.y goals after the Comprehensive Land Use Plan is finished so that it can comply. F. Off- Street Parking Regulations - City Manager City Manager Griffin advised that Commission has raised fines for parking tickets and are endeavoring to improve parking requirements so that emergency vehicles can get through.
