Larry Labadie, 3566 Marsha Lane, felt the residents should not be subjected to <br />something that the land was not intended for, and asked the Board to look into any hidden <br />subtleties. <br />John Reynolds, 3536 Marsha Lane, talked about secondary access, was opposed to <br />the request, and asked the Board to uphold P&Z's decision. <br />John Williams, Smuggler's Cove, asked what would happen to the other CL <br />properties that are adjacent to or nearby. <br />Dorothy Hennessy, 4185 79th Street, did not want the zoning changed in any way. <br />She asked the Board to consider their way of life. <br />Bruce Barkett, Esquire, acknowledged and understood the concerns of the <br />residents and did not want the Board to ignore them. However, he asked that the Board obey the <br />law, and assure the residents that they have several levels of protection. He wanted the Minutes to <br />reflect that he was called a "Power House" Attorney. Mr. Barkett described his client's intent as <br />safe and within the law. Although he understood the residents' concerns, he thought they were not <br />well founded, did not constitute evidence, and furthermore this was a commercially designated <br />property. <br />Chairman Wheeler asked Mr. Barkett, based on his comments, why his client could <br />not live with the current zoning. Mr. Barkett replied that CG is a little more flexible and is <br />highway -oriented property. <br />Mr. Barkett continued to argue his case with Board members, and the Board <br />discussed whether to do these changes on a case-by-case basis. <br />July 10, 2007 20 <br />
