BOOK 65 uu 174 <br />that Mr. Smith would be back sometime in the future to request a <br />change from RS -6 to RM -6 on that particular parcel. <br />Robert Mooney, representing property owners in the area <br />between North and South Winter Beach Roads, circulated a map <br />showing the area to remain at 6 upa under staff's recommendation <br />of Alternative #2 delineated by a bold black line. The shaded• <br />areas are property where owners support the staff's' <br />recommendation, and the white areas are the properties of owners <br />who could not be contacted. He believed that the new County golf <br />course will make that area a very desirable place to live, and if <br />we reduce the densities from LD -2, it will result in -an increase <br />in the cost of living in that area. Approximately 800 of the <br />owners of property east of the Lateral G Canal oppose reducing <br />the densities and wish for the densities to remain at 6 upa. He <br />urged the Board to vote for Alternative #2. <br />Don Lyon, owner of Busy Bee Nursery which lies between U.S. <br />#1 and Old Dixie Highway, pointed out that the new building <br />restrictions have created conflicts between neighbors in that <br />area as new homes must be built higher and the stormwater runs <br />down into the neighbors' properties. He described the <br />e� <br />difficulties and expenses he has encountered in trying to operate <br />a nursery which is water-logged after every storm, and felt no <br />matter how the area is zoned or designated, a drainage study <br />should be made to find a solution to the flooding conditions. <br />Director Keating suggested that Mr. Lyons meet with Public <br />Works Director Jim Davis and himself to find some way of solving <br />the water runoff problems. <br />Mr. Lynn Kirk, 4210 North Winter Beach Road, stated that <br />after many people in that area objected to higher densities, they <br />were encouraged to come up with a plan to protect their area for <br />the future. The owners felt they were on the right track during - <br />the workshops on the Winter Beach Precise Land Use Map when they <br />proposed the LD -1 corridor, which would give them the protection <br />for preserving the area in the manner in which it has developed <br />43 <br />
