fit those sites; and 2) they are paying the water and sewer based <br />capacity charges on vacant sites. He added the Lakewood <br />Village MHP felt allowing RV's would be an opportunity to <br />generate income. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Davis, SECONDED <br />by Chairman Solari, to direct staff to amend the Land <br />Development Regulation designation to allow recreational <br />vehicles in 25% of Mobile Home Park spaces that existed prior <br />to January 1, 2010, which are either less than 20 acres in size, or <br />located adjacent to Interstate 95. <br />John Gallagher, 1455 90th Avenue, Vero Beach, felt allowing <br />RV's would only be voting to benefit Lakewood Village MHP, <br />as well as the local businesses. <br />A discussion ensued and Chairman Solari emphasized that the <br />Board would be voting only to give direction to staff to begin a <br />process of amending the LDR's. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan wanted a measurable word other than <br />the word "adjacent to Interstate 95", such as within "a quarter <br />mile of Interstate 95". <br />Tamara Lewis, Resident and Employee at Lakewood Village <br />MHP stressed that the MHP wanted to draw more people into <br />the park to avoid raising the rates. She was encouraged and <br />hopeful that the Board would support the MHP in this <br />opportunity to advance the whole community. <br />Community Development Director Stan Boling explained the <br />LDR process and requested to communicate with the other <br />residents at the other MHP who may have a concern allowing <br />RV's. <br />Daniel Thompson, 1455 90th Avenue, stated that the Lakewood <br />Village MHP was a business and therefore had to generate <br />income in order to be successful. He added that designating <br />spaces for RV's would generate income, keep the fees low, and <br />improve the MHP for the future. <br />Vice Chairman Flescher expressed his concerns and felt it was <br />similar to the vacation rentals. <br />John Leithelm, 1455 90th Avenue, was unsure regarding the <br />plans for the MHP, but does not want to live in a campground. <br />He felt it would be possible to live next to a RV community and <br />was willing to communicate with Lakewood Village MHP and <br />Board of County Commission Minutes Page 10 <br />March 8, 2016 <br />
