The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone <br />wished to be heard in this matter. <br />Attorney Bruce Barkett of 756 Beachland Boulevard, <br />representing the applicants, Wabasso Industrial Grove, Inc., Hobart <br />Landing II Joint Venture, Earring Point Groves, Inc., N. B. and <br />Rachel Ryall, and Kennedy Groves, Inc., stated that the Planning & <br />Zoning Commission had not been concerned about the size of the <br />property. Their concern was that the original .7 acres stuck out <br />to the east. Adding the .7 acres on the south side of Property <br />Number 2 only adds 40 feet and has no impact on the node. Property <br />Number 1 does not need a commercial designation but Properties 2, <br />3 and 4 do need the added depth and size. The Comp Plan calls for <br />a certain amount of commercial acreage but the configuration is not <br />precise. The applicants worked very closely with staff, addressed <br />the Planning & Zoning Commission's objections and adopted their <br />recommendations. As staff pointed out, wastewater capacity is <br />available to these properties and waterlines will be available.in <br />1996. There will be no impact on the level of service because the <br />redesignations are a wash. Dr. Lewis' and Dr. Gorsuch's property <br />is east of the redesignated parcels 800 feet. There is a body of <br />water, some very tall vegetation, -a road, some wetlands and an <br />orange grove between their property and the redesignated parcels, <br />which is a very extensive buffer. Only 300 feet are required for <br />a mining operation and you could put 2 mines in that area. <br />Attorney Vitunac stated that since there is a court reporter, <br />the witnesses should be sworn. He further advised that Attorney <br />Barkett could swear that the testimony he had already given was the <br />truth. <br />Chairman Macht asked everyone else who intended to speak on <br />this issue to rise and be sworn in. <br />John Krupp of 4335 82nd Street appeared and stated that he is <br />also representing Marvin Cadenhead who owns 2 lots at the end of <br />82nd Street. He stated that he lives on the south side of Harris <br />Road, at the end of the road, and will be impacted by this <br />redesignation. They cannot afford to hire an attorney but have <br />been living in this area for 10 years. This will be the third <br />zoning on this particular property and they do not want increased <br />traffic and lighting in their neighborhood. <br />JUNE 139 1995 62 <br />
