storage of grove equipment until just recently when the <br />matter of this redesignation came up, and believed the <br />property was mowed and cleaned up specifically in anticipation <br />of a visit by the Planning Dept. staff. He wondered what <br />Mr. Helseth intended to use that property for when the time <br />comes that he inherits it. Mr. Fleischman also pointed out <br />that his small one -acre property would not increase traffic <br />to any extent, and he urged the Board to allow his property <br />to remain commercial. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Wodtke, the Board <br />unanimously (4-0) closed the Public Hearing. <br />Chairman Scurlock was concerned about the commercial <br />use already in place in that area, and had to admit that the <br />area is a mixed bag. <br />Commissioner Bird agreed this was going to be a difficult <br />decision. The Helseths were pioneers in this County; their <br />homes are some of the nicest old homes in the County; and it <br />is unfortunate that their residences are suffering from the <br />increasing development in that area. He did feel, however, <br />that at some point in time this area would not be a desired <br />location for residential. On the other hand., he hoped there <br />was some way for Mr. Fleischman to use his property for <br />commercial purposes since he had bought and paid for property <br />that had been zoned Commercial. <br />Commissioner Lyons asked if the commercial node at U.S. <br />#1 and Oslo Road was large enough to extend to the Fleischman <br />property and Mr. Shearer thought it might be possible to <br />include that property in the node. Director Keating <br />believed that would be setting a precedent in that it would <br />be the first time that a commercial node would jump over <br />land that was designated differently. <br />y MAY 2.1984 <br />45 <br />BOOK DID PAGE 841 <br />
