NOV 2 11979 '900K 42 LS.q- THAT THERE HAS BEEN A TRANSACTION FOR THE WET PROPERTY TO THE SOUTH AND THAT IT IS ZONED AS A MARINA. MR. KRAFT SAID THERE WAS A BAHAMIAN GROUP INTERESTED IN 79 ACRES AND THEY EXPECT TO CUT A CHANNEL THROUGH; ONCE THAT CHANNEL IS CUT THROUGH, THEY WOULD HAVE LOST EVERYTHING THAT WAS PROMISED TO THEM, INCLUDING THEIR PRIVACY. MR. KRAFT COMMENTED THAT THEIR MAIN OBJECTION IS THAT THEY DON'T WANT THE CHANNEL CUT THROUGH THERE; AND THEY DO AGREE WITH THE R-1 ZONING. MR. RUSSELL, 3565 LUCY DRIVE, APPROACHED THE BOARD AND STATED THAT HE AGREED WITH EVERYTHING THAT MR. KRAFT SAID. HE REFERRED THEN TO THE STATEMENT THAT MR. BRIGGS MADE THAT NO MULTI - HOMES WOULD BE BUILT ON THAT PROPERTY. MR. RUSSELL ADVISED THAT ONCE BEFORE MR. BRIGGS WENT ON RECORD WITH HIM THAT THIS PROPOSED CHANNEL WOULD NEVER BE BUILT THERE, THEREFORE, HE HAD NO FAITH OR CONFIDENCE IN HIS GOING ON RECORD. HE CONTINUED THAT THEY ALL DEFINITELY WANT TO SEE THE ZONING BE CHANGED TO R-1. CHAIRMAN WODTKE ASKED IF THERE WAS ANYONE PRESENT WHO WISHED TO'SPEAK. THERE WERE NONE. ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER LYONS, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER SIEBERT, THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING.
