Director Keating stated that we are seeing much higher growth this year to the point <br />that it is explosive. This county saw growth in the 1980's but currently it seems like more <br />because we are coming off a low growth period. <br />Chairman Macht advocated attracting companies to our county which would bring <br />occupations that pay a living wage. <br />John Williams, Smugglers Cove, complimented the Commission on its obvious <br />wisdom in addressing the foreseen problems. He believed we need to find a way to slow <br />the growth and determine how it will not cost those of us here who have already paid. He <br />defended property rights, but development should not cost any of us an additional cent. He <br />suggested that each development should pay for new roads lest we Asubsidize our own <br />demise@and that all counties should come together to petition the State for changes in the <br />Bert Harris Act. <br />It was determined that no one else wished to be heard and the Chairman closed the <br />public hearing. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED BY <br />Commissioner Neuberger, the Board unanimously adopted <br />Ordinance No. 2003-037 amending the Zoning Ordinance and <br />the accompanying Zoning Map for approximately 22.08 acres <br />located approximately 430 feet east of 54tH Avenue on the <br />south side of 12tH Street, from A-1, Agricultural District (up to <br />1 unit/5 acres), to RS -3, Single -Family Residential District (up <br />to 3 units/acre); and providing codification, severability, and <br />effective date. <br />December 2, 2003 <br />14 <br />
