a THE CHAIRMAN STATED THAT BASICALLY IN MAY OF 1975, THE BOARD AS THEN CONSTITUTED, APPROVED A COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN, ORDINANCE 76-12, .WHICH APPROVED IN THEORY AND AS A GUIDE OUR PRESENT PLAN. THE ADOPTION 'OF THAT PLAN WAS THE RESULT OF WORK BY ADLEY AND ASSOCIATES, THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT, AND MANY OTHERS, AND WE HAVE BEEN USING IT AS A GUIDE THROUGH- OUT THE LAST THREE YEARS. THE CHAIRMAN POINTED OUT THAT THIS IS NOT A ZONING MAP. WE ARE PRESENTLY OPERATING UNDER A ZONING MAP, BUT THE PLAN WE ARE LOOKING AT TODAY IS A PROJECTION THROUGH THE YEAR 1990. IT DOES NOT MEAN THERE WILL BE A PERMIT ISSUED TOMORROW BASED ON THIS MAP, COMMISSIONER WODTKE STATED THAT MR. STAN REDICK, PLANNING AND ZONING DIRECTOR, WHO REPLACED THE LATE VAL BRENNAN, WILL GIVE A PRESENTATION OF EACH ITEM AS IT COMES UP ON THE AGENDA, PLANNING DIRECTOR REDICK TOOK THE FLOOR AND REITERATED THAT NOTHING CAN BE DONE AS A RESULT OF ANY PLAN CHANGE MADE TODAY. PUBLIC HEARINGS WOULD HAVE TO BE HELD BEFORE REZONING. THE FIRST ITEM TO BE DISCUSSED IS ITEM V. ATTORNEY COLLINS INFORMED THE BOARD THAT THE NOTICE CONTINUES THROUGHOUT THE HEARING AND FOR ALL THE ITEMS. MR. REDICK HAD THE PROJECTOR DISPLAY A MAP OF THE SOUTH BEACH AREA AND NOTED THAT THE EXISTING PLAN SHOWS LOW DENSITY FOR THE ENTIRE AREA. THE PROPOSAL IS FOR MEDIUM DENSITY AND COMMERCIAL. THE REASON FOR THIS IS TO FORM A TRANSITION FROM THE EXISTING COMMERCIAL IN THE CITY TO THE LOW DENSITY IN THE COUNTY. MR. REDICK NOTED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN PETITIONS WITH APPROXIMATELY 1,255 NAMES PRESENTED IN OPPOSITION. THESE PETITIONS ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK. HE CONTINUED EXPLAINING THE OBJECTIONS PRESENTED AND NOTED THAT THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION, ON A THREE TO TWO SPLIT VOTE, RECOMMENDED THAT NO CHANGE BE MADE IN THE EXISTING COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, SO THAT IT WOULD REMAIN LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL IN THE ENTIRE AREA. THE CHAIRMAN ASKED IF ANYONE WISHED TO SPEAK AGAINST THE 6 RECOMMENDATION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD AND IN FAVOR OF CHANGING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THERE WERE NONE, THE CHAIRMAN ASKED FOR A SHOW OF HANDS AGAINST ANY CHANGE OF THE PROPOSED AREA. EVERYONE PRESENT RAISED THEIR HAND. u k 37 OCT 2 6 1978 E.
