SEP 1 BOOK ; 69 pgf 198 <br />Planning Director Keating confirmed that it was not. <br />Commissioner Bird knew that Attorney Henderson was here when <br />we went through the long detailed process of adopting our Master <br />Plan; we obviously had our reasons for these provisions. and he <br />felt it is a little premature to make any major amendments. <br />The Chairman asked if anyone present wished to be heard. <br />Ray Scent, 71st Court, noted that he lives in close <br />proximity to this area, and in fact, the reason that he did not <br />choose to locate at Village Green was because, although their <br />literature stated there would be a commercial center at that <br />corner to serve Village Green, it wasn't available at that time. <br />He continued that as a nearby neighbor, he would have no <br />objection to a neighborhood node on that corner. <br />Preston Miller, president of the Woodland Home Owners Assoc- <br />iation Village Green, Phase 1, and also president of the Village <br />Green East Home Owners Association, came before the Board to <br />speak on behalf of all of Village Green.

Mr. Miller believed the Master Plan was formulated <br />to forestall haphazard development in the county, and changing <br />the Plan as requested would negatively impact the residential <br />character of the surrounding area. Mr. Miller then reviewed the <br />history of the property dating back to the Seminole Indians and <br />quoted from Village Green sales literature, which cited their <br />7 <br />16 <br />
