Commissioner Wodtke referred to the statement in the Minutes of the Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes of March 13, 1986, re the Miller rezoning request wherein Planner Shearer indicated that he didn't think anything had changed on the subject property in the last three years. He felt we are all aware that Mr. Miller owns Lots 1, 2, 3 and 4 and also the strip in back of them, which was the old railroad right-of-way, and he cannot envision what that property could ever be used for if it was not at least allowed to be included in with Mr. Miller's other property. Also, in the meantime, the County purchased that right-of-way up to the section line at 510/512 so all that property on the north side of CR 512 south of the cemetery now is owned by Mr. Miller, and Commissioner Wodtke believed that is a significant change from 3 years ago. Planner Shearer felt what staff was indicating at that time was that there had been no additiona•I commercial acreage developed since the Comprehensive Plan was adopted. Obviously the ownership situation has changed in the last 21 years. Mr. Miller noted that the railroad property was not zoned, and he is asking that it be zoned. Chairman Scurlock believed that the Planning & Zoning Commission voted unanimously to deny both requests. Mr. Miller felt they didn't know about his agreement with the School Board, and he further noted that they said his property was too low but it is the same as the property on the other side of CR 512. Commissioner Wodtke inquired what staff's reason was to have the zoning on other side of the road and not the same side as Mr. Miller's property. Planner Shearer explained that there was 50 acres of commercial zoning at this location and a 50 acre node, and based on county policy over the last ten years, that was pretty much what had been envisioned when the Plan was adopted. Also there were a number of rezonings in the late 70's in this area, and 36 BOOK 65 I rhGC P� / J U L �. 5 19�
