PLANNING DIRECTOR REVER STATED THAT THIS IS WHERE HE HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD - THAT THEY HAVE HAD TO TREAD SOFTLY BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT INFORMATION, AND WITH A MORE ADEQUATE DATA BASE, THEY COULD MAKE A BETTER DECISION REGARDING THE PROPER DENSITIES. COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK ASKED IF HE WOULD FIND 6 UNITS PER ACRE ON THE NORTH BEACH APPLICABLE TO FLORIDA LAND COMPANY. MR. REVER STATED THAT HE WOULD. HE BELIEVED THEY THINK IT IS PUTTING SOMEWHAT OF A STRESS ON THEM, BUT OTHER DEVELOPERS HE HAS TALKED TO ARE AGREEABLE TO SUCH A DENSITY AND FEEL IT WILL STILL ALLOW THE DEVELOPER AMPLE OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP, COMMISSIONER BIRD NOTED THAT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO, THE COMMISSION REQUESTED THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT TO COME UP WITH A NEW CATEGORY, AND MR. REVER REPORTED THAT THEY CONSIDERED SEVERAL ALTERNATIVES AND NOW HAVE DEVELOPED WHAT THEY FEEL IS THE MOST FEASIBLE AND WOULD CAUSE THE LEAST AMOUNT OF TURMOIL. IT WOULD BE A NEW ZONE SO THE BOARD WOULD HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY FROM THE START TO ANALYZE EACH PROPOSAL REQUESTING THIS ZONE, AND IT WOULD BE IN 6 UNITS PER ACRE WHICH IS IN LINE WITH THEIR THINKING ON THE PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BASED ON THE DATA THEY HAVE SO FAR. COMMISSIONER WODTKE INQUIRED ABOUT TIMING, AND MR. REVER STATED THAT THEY ALREADY HAVE A PROPOSAL ON SUCH AN ORDINANCE, AND IT WOULD JUST BE A MATTER OF ADVERTISING AND HAVING IT COME BEFORE THE BOARD. HE BELIEVED THEY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A RECOMMENDATION FROM THE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION. ATTORNEY COLLINS NOTED THAT THIS COULD BE DONE AND TAKEN UP AT THE SECOND MEETING IN JANUARY. ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER WODTKE, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK, THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY AUTHORIZED ADVERTISING A 6 UNIT PER ACRE MULTI -FAMILY ZONE ORDINANCE FOR PUBLIC HEARING AT THE SECOND MEETING IN JANUARY, CHAIRMAN LYONS BELIEVED THAT THIS REPRESENTS A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
