1. Attorney Ken Oswald, representing Charter Land and Housing
(owners of Twin Lakes Manor) came before the Board in behalf of
his request at the previous meeting in regards to a variance
which would allow them to construct houses consisting of 1000 sq. ft.
of living area instead of the present requirement of 1200 or 1400
sq. ft. Prices for the houses will be in the $25,000 - $27,000
price range.
Much discussion was held. Mr. Carter said he would be in
tr favor of Block "B" in Twin Lakes Manor having smaller houses and
that would be all.
Mr. McRobert said the subject was premature at this point
and that they should see how the smaller houses work out in Fox Fire
before making any recommendation in this matter.
Mr. Brooklyn said he would go along with constructing houses
of 1000 sq. ft. along the lake, but he wouldn't go along with
mixing smaller houses with the larger ones that are already there.
He indicated that he would be for putting houses with 1000 sq. ft.
on the lots that presently require 1200 sq. ft. and on the lots
where there are no houses at all, he would be in agreement of
having the smaller houses.
Mr. Peck's view was that he didn't feel that they should
break up what they now have as far as the square footage.
Mr. Thomas asked that the members in favor of Mr. Oswald's
request signify by saying "I ". All were opposed and Mr. Oswald
was told he would have to apply for a variance to go before the
Board of Adjustment.
2. Police Building - Public Hearing
A hearing for the approval of putting the Police Building
East of Bluford.
Much discussion was held. Mr. Carter wanted to know why the
Commission wanted the Police Building on Bluford St. instead of
Kissimmee Ave. Comm. Lyle was present. Mr. Lyle told the Board
that according to the Commmission it would be the best area as
far as the location, drainage and facilities were concerned.
Mr. Peck read zoning regulations regarding action of Planning
and Zoning on page 23, Sec. 6.1 and Sec. 6.2.
Mr. Carter said he would go along with the building of the
Police Building on Bluford St. if they would move it 50 ft. east.

a vote of the members by raising of hands. There were three yays
and one nay. Majority ruled. Motion carried.
