BOOK 65 PAGE 16 - If - Lloyd Lloyd Danner, 7685 134th Street in Sebastian, stated that he is in favor of establishing this zoning district because this category would be the answer for approximately 9 lots along a strip north of Sebastian, which property is no longer appropriate" for single-family residential. He noted that County water and sewer are going in up there and every little bit of development helps pay the cost of putting in the utilities. Bernie Jerrell, 7575 20th Street, emphasized that he lives and works on SR -60, and that many professional offices have been built recently on SR -60 between 20th Avenue and 43rd Avenue. He maintained that there is a need for more professional offices west of 43rd Avenue, but the County -will not allow it except in a commercial node, and most professional people do not wish to build offices next to a restaurant or some other retail use. With regard to traffic generated by medical offices, he pointed out that there is no problem at the Doctors Clinic. He believed that the Board should establish this zoning district in order to provide a vehicle for professional offices to serve the growing population. John Brenner, local architect, pointed out that there are p many old homes along major arteries that could be restored for professional office use which would serve as a buffer to the residential property beyond, and emphasized that a site plan review still would be required and the Planning 8 Zoning Commission still would have the discretion as to what buildings can or cannot be erected or renovated. ON MOTION by Commissioner Wodtke, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously closed the Public Hearing. Commissioner Lyons pointed out that there are many places out SR -60 between 43rd Avenue and 1-95 that could be used for professional offices because of the commercial nodes and neighborhood commercial zones already established. 33
