Among the policies applicable to <br />this request is Future Land Use Policy 1.15 which permits various <br />uses on commercially designated land; these uses include office <br />commercial which is the use proposed by the applicant.

The subject <br />property is located in an area deemed suitable for commercial uses <br />of various types and has met all applicable criteria. Staff <br />support the subject request. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Based on the analysis performed, staff recommends that the Board of <br />County Commissioners approve this request to rezone the subject <br />property to CG. <br />Director Keating spoke of the benefit of having access to <br />the railroad tracks for commercial zoning of almost any type. <br />Commissioner Bowman contended that there is no such thing as <br />mitigation of bayheads, and when it comes to site development <br />plans, she would urge this be incorporated in your surface water <br />management plan. She believed the bayhead at Vickers Road was <br />totally destroyed. <br />Director Keating confirmed that one at the warehouse was destroyed, <br />but believed the one south of there near the lunber yard was adequately <br />saved. <br />The Chairman asked if anyone wished to be heard. [here were <br />none, and he thereupon closed the public hearing. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by Com- <br />missioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously adopted <br />Ordinance 91-24 rezoning property to CG as requested <br />by Sebastian General Partnership. <br />18 <br />
