Attorney Charles Smith, representing S. R. Smith & Sons, and <br />Mr. Joe Culpepper, property owner, appeared before the Board in regard <br />to the matter of abandonment of a part of the North 25° and:'South 25' <br />of 24th Street in Eucalyptus Place Subdivision No. 2, which was tabled <br />until today at the meeting of April 20. The Engineer presented a <br />profile of the area and suggested several solutions to the drainage <br />problem which Mr. Culpepper feared would arise if the abandonment <br />were approved. After discussing the problem, Mr. Smith suggested <br />that the Board just abandon the North 25' of 24th Street. Mr. Culpepper <br />pm - <br />stated that he had no objection to the suggestion but would still like <br />to get more adequate drainage in the area.(a faster and better relief <br />to the area than at the present time) Upon the applicant having waived <br />the abandonment of the South 25 feet of 24th Street, Commissioner <br />McCullers moved that tentative approval be given to the abandonment <br />of the North 25 feet of 24th Street, and upon Petitioner changing <br />the location of the ditch running along 24th Street from 54th Avenue <br />West, then the Board will approve the Resolution of abandonment and <br />authorize publication of Final Notice. Motion was seconded by <br />Commissioner Macdonald and unanimously carried. <br />The County Engineer reported that the Zoning Commission had a <br />request from the Rev. Leo B. Roberts, Director of the Baptist Retire- <br />ment Center to donstruct duplex cottages on the whist side of their <br />property in Buckinghammock S/D in what is designated as a 120' buffe± <br />zone; and that the Zoning Commission has tentatively approved and re- <br />commended that the Zoning Regulations in R3A Retirement District be <br />changed to include duplexes and private residences within 120 feet of <br />a public street. Rev. Roberts and Mr. James L. Beindorf were present. <br />Commissioner Waddell moved, seconded by Commissioner Macdonald and un- <br />animously carried, that the Zoning Commission's recommendation be denied. <br />In the discussion which ensued, additional facts were brought out, <br />particularly the Engineer's statement that this buffer strip was set <br />up because of the objections of one of the adjacent property owners. <br />MAY ?5 <br />
