SEP 101980 <br />-I <br />BOOK - 4 pn'E 527 <br />THE COMMISSION THAT THE SECOND ITEM REQUESTED BY THE CIVIC ASSOCIATION, <br />OR EXTENSION OF THE COMPLETION DATE OF THE COMPREHENSIVE MASTER <br />LAND USE PLAN TO APRIL 1, 1981, WAS CONSIDERED AND GRANTED. <br />MR. BADENHOP STATED THAT IT WAS REPORTED ON THE RADIO THAT <br />THE BOARD HAD AGREED TO EXTEND THE DATE, BUT IN TALKING WITH VARIOUS <br />PEOPLE ATTENDING THE MEETING, IT WASN'T CLEAR, AND HE ASKED THAT <br />THE BOARD CLARIFY THIS TODAY. <br />CHAIRMAN SIEBERT AGREED THAT THIS WILL BE ADDRESSED AGAIN. <br />ATTORNEY STEVE HENDERSON NEXT APPEARED REPRESENTING A COUPLE <br />OF HIS CLIENTS WHO HAVE REZONING REQUESTS PRESENTLY BEING PROCESSED <br />THROUGH THE ZONING BOARD AND THE COUNTY COMMISSION. ONE OF THESE <br />PARCELS IS 30 ACRES IMMEDIATELY NORTH OF THE TOWN OF INDIAN RIVER <br />SHORES ON THE OCEAN, AND THE OTHER PARCEL IS APPROXIMATELY 10,000' <br />OF OCEANFRONT NORTH OF WABASSO BEACH ROAD WITH 20 DIFFERENT OWNERS. <br />HIS CLIENTS, OF COURSE, WOULD BE OPPOSED TO ANY MORATORIUM IF IT WOULD <br />AFFECT THE REZONINGS WHICH ARE IN PROCESS. HE BELIEVED THE PLANNING <br />DEPARTMENT HAS MOST OF THE PRELIMINARY WORK DONE AND HAS COME OUT <br />WITH THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS; S0, THE CONTINUING OF THESE APPLICATIONS <br />WOULD NOT DEPRIVE THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT OF TIME TO WORK ON THE <br />LAND USE PLAN. MR. HENDERSON COMMENTED THAT THE PRIOR MASTER PLAN <br />TOOK AT LEAST A YEAR AND A HALF TO COMPLETE; THE PRESENT MASTER PLAN <br />IS UNDER ITS SECOND EXTENSION ALREADY AND THE OUTLOOK NOW IS THAT THE <br />LAND USE PORTION WON'T BE PASSED UNTIL NEXT APRIL; THEREFORE, TO <br />IMPOSE A MORATORIUM COULD WORK A HARDSHIP ON A NUMBER OF LANDOWNERS, <br />ATTORNEY HENDERSON POINTED OUT THAT UNDER THE PRESENT ZONING, THERE <br />ARE MANY USES PERMITTED THAT DON'T INTERFERE WITH THE PRESENT LAND <br />USE PLAN. YOU, THEREFORE, WOULD NEED TO IMPOSE A MORATORIUM ON ANY <br />BUILDING BECAUSE IT MIGHT INTERFERE WITH THE FUTURE PLAN, AND HE DID <br />NOT BELIEVE THERE IS ANY JUSTIFICATION FOR DOING THAT. ATTORNEY <br />HENDERSON INFORMED THE BOARD THAT HIS CLIENTS INTEND TO START <br />DEVELOPING SHORTLY,AND IF THE BOARD SHOULD IMPOSE A MORATORIUM UNTIL <br />THE MASTER PLAN IS ADOPTED, IT WOULD BE DEPRIVING THEM OF THEIR <br />RIGHT TO DEVELOP THEIR PROPERTY. MR. HENDERSON CONTINUED THAT HE <br />93 <br />
