M M M <br />Zoning Commission, after considering this twice, felt a one mile <br />separation might be a little strict and came up with a provision <br />to allow a deviation of 10% if certain criteria are met. <br />Planner Shearer wished to add that staff presently has two <br />rezoning applications in for neighborhood nodes, both at the <br />intersection of 74th Ave. and SR 60. The first one, a 7.2 acre <br />parcel, was denied by the Planning 6 Zoning Commission, and that <br />is on appeal. The second request is scheduled to go before the <br />Planning & Zoning Commission on June 27th, and it is for 6 acres <br />at the southwest corner of the intersection. <br />Planning Director Keating reported that the neighborhood <br />node concept changed dramatically because of the workshops to <br />more of a mini node concept, and staff is putting everything in <br />black and white that was agreed on at the workshops. <br />Commissioner Scurlock felt it is good we are reducing the <br />sizing, but one of his questions concerned what he termed the <br />"septic tank" phenomena, i.e., where you have one node <br />established at a certain point and one at another location, and <br />it squeezes out the guy in the middle. He then wished to know <br />exactly how the distance from one node to another is measured - <br />whether by line of sight or distance traveled in a vehicle? <br />Regarding a node at 74th Ave., for instance, there is already a <br />node at Vista Plantation, and on the one side of SR 60 the <br />distance could be much more than a mile while on the other side <br />of the highway, it is a shorter distance, possibly .7 of a mile. <br />Director Keating noted that anytime you put in distance <br />criteria, it is a difficult problem. There are many factors that <br />need to be considered, and he felt the Board may have to do this <br />on a case to case basis. They did establish that the distance <br />would be along the rights-of-way, and the philosophy was that a <br />neighborhood node conceivably could be on all four quadrants of <br />an intersection. The right-of-way does serve to connect parcels <br />on each side of the road, and staff would measure from boundary <br />line to boundary line assuming that that boundary line extends <br />45 <br />JUN 5 1985 <br />BOOK �, 86 <br />
