DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS _I BOOK 60 PA,UE 1?7 In February of 1984, the Planning & Zoning Commission approved a site plan application submitted by Architect Paul Dritenbas on behalf of Mr. Bill Caldwell. The approved plan provides for the construction of a 9,648 square foot commer- cial strip center to be located immediately opposite the entrance to Vero Highlands on the east side of U. S. Highway 1. Subsequently, the Planning & Development Division was notified of a transfer in ownership -of the subject property from Mr. Caldwell to Shopping Centers, LTD, a business entity of which Ed Schlitt is the principal. In January of 1985, a building permit was issued for the project; however, due to a lengthy bidding process con- struction was not able to start prior to February 23, 1985. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 23(h)(1)(a) Appendix A of the County Code, the applicant is requesting a one year extension of the site plan approval. RECOMMENDATION The Planning staff recommends approval of Edgar Schlitt's request for a one year extension of the site plan approval to construct a commercial strip center at 2002 U. S. Highway 1. Commissioner Scurlock asked if there is a provision in regard to extending site plans which would result in an automatic update to bring them into conformance with the new ordinances. Planning & Development Director Robert Keating replied that although we do not have a specific provision, we do have a provision which states that a site plan can be extended only once. The applicant would have to resubmit the site plan if anything came up after the extension expired. Commissioner Scurlock wished the County would also' pursue having the ability to address the storm water management ordinance, beach ordinance, etc., in regard to these extensions. Administrator Wright felt the Board has that ability now by reviewing the site plan before granting an extension. 4
