PLANNING DIRECTOR REDICK INFORMED THOSE PRESENT THAT THE <br />.FIRST AREA TO BE CONSIDERED IS THE AREA FROM THE WEST BOUNDARY OF SECTION <br />19, TOWNSHIP 33, RANGE 38, WHICH IS 122ND AVENUE, FOR A DISTANCE OF 660' <br />BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH OF THE CENTER LINE OF OSLO ROAD MOVING EAST TO THE <br />CENTER LINE OF 1-95. <br />THE EXISTING ZONING IN THE AREA IS C-1 COMMERCIAL, AND THE <br />EXISTING LAND USES IN THE AREA ARE IN GENERAL AGRICULTURAL OR VACANT. <br />THE PROPOSED CHANGE IN ZONING IS TO A -AGRICULTURAL, AND THE REASON FOR <br />THE CHANGE IS THAT THERE IS AN AMOUNT OF COMMERCIAL AREA WITHIN THE <br />COUNTY THAT FAR EXCEEDS THAT WHICH CAN BE USED IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. <br />THE PLANNING DIRECTOR FELT THE AREA IN QUESTION HAS LITTLE REASON TO BE <br />COMMERCIAL AS THERE ARE NO SPECIFIC SITUATIONS THAT MAKE IT A NATURAL <br />COMMERCIAL AREA. THERE IS NO INTERCHANGE AT THE INTERSECTION OF 1.-95, <br />AND HE DID NOT FEEL IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE COMMERCIAL IN THAT AREA, <br />ALTHOUGH IT WAS DISCUSSED AND COULD BE IN THE "TASTER PLAN FOR SOME FUTURE <br />TIME. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS AGRICULTURAL IN THAT AREA, AND IT IS <br />RECOMMENDED THAT THE AREA BE REZONED TO AGRICULTURAL. <br />COMMISSIONER LYONS ASKED IF THERE IS ANY INTERCHANGE EVER <br />CONTEMPLATED AT OSLO ROAD AND 1-95, AND THE CHAIRMAN STATED THAT WE HAVE <br />NO INDICATION THAT THERE IS. <br />COMMISSIONER Loy POINTED OUT THAT WE TRIED DESPERATELY TO GET <br />AN INTERCHANGE THERE, BUT WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. <br />THE CHAIRMAN ASKED IF ANYONE PRESENT WISHED TO BE HEARD. <br />BILL GRAVES CAME BEFORE THE BOARD REPRESENTING BANYAN GROVES. <br />HE STATED THAT THEIR GROVE IS RIGHT NEXT TO 1-95, AND HE FEELS THEY HAVE <br />BEEN DISCRIMINATED AGAINST BECAUSE THERE I.S GOING TO BE COMMERCIAL ON <br />THE OTHER SIDE OF 1-95. HE FURTHER NOTED THAT THE DOT WANTS 0.3 ACRES <br />FROM THEM, AND THEY ARE JUST WAITING FOR THE TIME WHEN THE PROPERTY MAY <br />BE REZONED TO AGRICULTURAL BECAUSE IT WILL NOT BE WORTH AS MUCH. MR. <br />GRAVES STATED THAT HE DID NOT SEE HOW THE BOARD CAN SAY THERE IS TOO MUCH <br />COMMERCIAL LAND - WHO IS THE JUDGE? HE CONTINUED THAT HE WOULD HATE TO <br />SEE IT GO FROM AGRICULTURAL TO COMMERCIAL AND -BACK AGAIN AND WOULD <br />LIKE IT TO REMAIN AS IT IS. <br />59 <br />BOOK • <br />NOV 2 11978 <br />0 <br />
