He noted that there is some connection between <br />this matter and the Barnett Bank of which Commissioner Wodtke is <br />a Director, and while he does receive some remuneration, there is <br />no special private gain. <br />Commissioner Wodtke believed the Board will not vote on this <br />matter for two weeks, and stated he would like to fulfill his <br />duties as a:Commissioner and vote if he is allowed, but will <br />refrain if he is not. <br />Attorney Vitunac advised that he will seek an opinion from <br />the State Commission on Ethics before the next meeting. <br />Commissioner Wodtke asked if, in the meantime, the Board <br />,felt he should give any of his thoughts on this matter or <br />refrain, and Chairman Scurlock felt that he should refrain until <br />we get that opinion. The Chairman continued that he personally <br />has not changed from his thinking in 1983 that -there will be an <br />intense impact and while there may be some need for some <br />services, he felt they would have to be of a very limited and <br />small nature, even less than five acres. There is a significant <br />traffic problem, and it seems the Oslo Shopping Center is back on <br />track, and also Perkins Restaurant is already in the vicinity. <br />Commissioner Bowman expressed her opinion that a commercial <br />node is not needed and inappropriate. <br />Commissioner Bird believed it might be in the best interests <br />of everyone if some amicable development of this property could <br />be worked out between the residents and the developer to <br />eliminate any cloud or doubt about how the property is to be <br />developed. He did agree it would be premature to grant the <br />limited commercial, but hoped in the next two weeks we can work <br />out something on a very limited basis to allow some type of uses <br />there in keeping with the neighborhood which will act as a <br />support and an amenity to the neighborhood and not a big traffic <br />attractor to the outside. <br />The Chairman announced that a decision will be reached at <br />the July 29th meeting when he hoped a full Board will be present. <br />28 <br />J U L 15 1996 Boor, 6 5far <br />L <br />
