JAN 15 1986 Boor 63 Prl277 industrial use or had an existing use, and he wished to know if it is true that there is very little left for expansion. Planner Shearer stated that the only properties really committed are two very small commercial properties on the east side of 1-95 at CR 512, plus the 100 acre Hetra property. All else that possibly could be considered committed would be the property in between to connect those properties. The RV Park had site plan approval, but he believed that has expired, and there is 49 acres available on the northwest quadrant which was recently rezoned. Attorney Glenn -stressed the reason staff gave for expanding the node 49 acres in the northwest quadrant was, and he quoted: "Conditions have changed in this area since the Comprehensive Plan was adopted. Hetra has received site plan approval for their development, and most of the land in the node is in existing or committed commercial/industrial uses." Mr. Ansin would like to see similar expansion in the southwest quadrant. Frank DeJoia stated that he is a real estate broker in the Sebastian River area and associated with Dan Cruce who is in favor of squaring off the node to the south of 1-95 opposite the industrial area. He does not have any interest financially, but he is familiar with the area and did believe it would be logical to include the area opposite the industrial. Fred Calvert, 995 Periwinkle Dr., also agreed with what Mr. Cruce has said. He pointed out that 1-95 is about to be completed all the way through; it is the heaviest traveled road in Florida; and CR 512 is a main feeder road. Mr. Calvert believed that in time Sebastian will be larger than Vero Beach and felt to own property, as he does, within 2,000' of this highway and have it residential is almost useless. It should be commercial. No one further wished to be heard. 36
