limited commercial district providing for most retail uses as well as office uses; and OCR is primarily offices. Commissioner Bowman wished to know if OCR permits boutiques, and Planner Shearer advised that any retail use would have to be accessory to an office use. The Zoning Code states; "Any authorized accessory retail use shall be permitted providing that no such use is free standing and that all such uses combined comprise no more than 200 of the ground floor area of the structure in which they are located." Uses listed are carry -out restaurants, limited retail sales, and personal services. Chief Planner Shearer then gave the history of the subject property, noting that in 1957 it had a 600 ft. strip of commer- cial zoning on U.S.I which was in place for years until Vista Properties came in with their plan. They developed based on a master plan (something like we do with PBDs today) and rezoned the property leaving two commercial areas for all their frontage on U.S.I. Planner Shearer continued to review his memo, noting that the Planning & Zoning Commission and Planning staff both telt this particular area would be suitable for a neighborhood commercial node type activity. Chairman Scurlock asked if any representative or individual wished to be heard. He noted that the applicant has said they would prefer to make their presentation last. Attorney Vitunac felt it would be more appropriate if the applicant made his case first to give the public something to discuss and rebut. Attorney Henderson, representing Vista Properties, did not object to that procedure, but asked to have an opportunity to rebut later. He informed the Board that he is representing Vista Properties as to parcels 1, 2 and 4 and Barnett Bank is parcel 3. These parcels combined comprise about 51 acres, and he believed there has been some contusion about this. The request only goes to 5.5 acres, which is a little less than halfway in on Vista Royale Boulevard. 13 JUL 15 1996 BOOK 65 PACE 13 l
