FEB 28 1989 <br />BOOK fpA.€ <br />nodes, staff determined that there was not a sufficient amount of <br />contiguous land to accommodate a regional mall. Therefore, staff <br />determined that there probably was an oversight when,the Comp <br />Plan was adopted in not actually providing contiguous acreage to <br />accommodate a regional mall site. For that reason,.staff <br />determined that the request was warranted. <br />Commissioner Eggert understood that the requirement for <br />contiguous land means contiguous land with services, and Director <br />Keating confirmed that requirement, explaining that staff looked <br />at the closer -in nodes and did not consider the large nodes out <br />on Interstate 95. He emphasized that urban service area would be <br />an important concept in the new Comp Plan. <br />Commissioner Scurlock understood that Indian River Boulevard <br />was going to bisect some golf course property, which would leave <br />2 pieces of land which he believed were designated for <br />multi -family residential, one being to the east of the Boulevard, <br />and one to the west, with U.S. #1 being the border on the west. <br />Although he realized that property is not part of this request, <br />he felt some attention should be given at this time to the use of <br />that property, because he didn't feel those 2 triangles of land <br />would develop as multi -family residential. Commissioner Scurlock <br />emphasized that we have an opportunity here to see that those 2 <br />pieces of land are designated properly so that we have an orderly <br />transition from commercial. <br />Director Keating stated that those points would be addressed. <br />in the land use element of the new Comp Plan. <br />Chairman Wheeler opened the Public Hearing and asked if <br />anyone wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, he <br />closed the Public Hearing. <br />14 <br />
