PLANNING DIRECTOR REDICK STATED THAT THIS PARTICULAR PROPERTY <br />CONSISTS OF 10 ACRES AND IS LOCATED ON 66TH AVENUE ABOUT 60' NORTH OF <br />HOBART ROAD. THE CITRUS HAS BEEN REMOVED, AND THERE IS A STABLE CON- <br />STRUCTED APPROXIMATELY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. THE AREA <br />IS R-1 AND IS SURROUNDED BY R-I,,WHICH DOES NOT PERMIT A STABLE UNLESS <br />THERE IS ONE ACRE PER HORSE. MR. REDICK EXPLAINED THAT AT THE TIME OF <br />THE ZONING HEARING, DR. MEEKO HAD AN OPTION ON AN ADDITIONAL 10 ACRES, <br />AND THIS WAS TO BE A PRIVATE STABLE. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE BUILDING WAS <br />CONSTRUCTED, AND CERTAIN STOPS WERE PUT ON IT BY THE ZONING OFFICE <br />BECAUSE IT BECAME A COMMERCIAL STABLE WITH THINGS NOT SHOWN ON THE SITE <br />PLAN. SINCE THAT TIME THE OWNER HAS REQUESTED REZONING TO AGRICULTURAL <br />IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO USE THE STABLE AS A COMMERCIAL STABLE, TO STALL <br />OTHER PEOPLE S HORSES, TRAIN HORSES, ETC. THE STAFFS RECOMMENDATION WAS <br />NEGATIVE. PLANNER REDICK NOTED THAT AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION AND MANY <br />INDIVIDUALS SPEAKING IN FAVOR OF THE REZONING, THE PLANNING AND ZONING <br />COMMISSION, ON A SPLIT VOTE, DID APPROVE REZONING TO AGRICULTURAL. <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT NOTED THAT THE STAFF `S COMMENT IS THAT <br />IT WOULD BE SPOT ZONING, AND ASKED IF WE CAN CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE <br />VIEW THAT AGRICULTURAL IS A HOLDING ZONE SUBJECT TO SOME OTHER USE AT <br />A LATER DATE? <br />MR. REDICK STATED THAT IS TRUE, BUT HE FELT THE BASIC CONCERN <br />IS THAT THERE ARE OTHER RESIDENTS IN THE AREA AND THERE MAY BE MORE. <br />• HE DID NOT FEEL A COMMERCIAL STABLE IS REASONABLE IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA, <br />EVEN THOUGH IT IS ONLY SCATTERED RESIDENTIAL AT THIS TIME. <br />CHAIRMAN WODTKE DISCUSSED THE ONE ACRE PER HORSE REQUIRED IN <br />A RESIDENTIAL ZONE AND NOTED THAT DR. MEEKO NOW HAS A 20 HORSE STABLE <br />BUT ONLY 10 ACRES SINCE HE DID NOT ACQUIRE THE 10 ACRES HE HAD UNDER <br />OPTION, AND IN ADDITION, THE STABLE IS GOING FROM PRIVATE TO COMMERCIAL. <br />COMMISSIONER SIEBERT ASKED WHERE THIS PROPERTY IS IN RELATION- <br />SHIP TO KIWANIS HOBART PARK, AND PLANNER REDICK STATED THAT IT IS CON- <br />SIDERABLY WEST OF THE PARK AREA, POSSIBLY A MILE AND A.HALF AWAY. HE <br />NOTED THAT EVERYTHING EAST OF LATERAL A ON 66TH AVENUE IN THIS AREA IS <br />R-1,AND THE FIRST 330' ON THE WEST OF 66TH AVENUE IS ALSO R-1. <br />Boa 39 PAGE 288 <br />
