Commissioner Adams thought it is a wonderful opportunity and that the kinks can be worked out. She suggested that the County try to implement it, maybe during a trial period to see how it works. Commissioner Bird pointed out that Disney is now in operation and he does not see a boom. He felt any growth will be because of residential development and that the commercial area will develop and have a prosperous future under the existing ordinances. Chairman Macht asked the Commissioners to remember this is a small area with an element of fragility and that the citizens of the County have a bigger stake in this. He inquired whether there was any latitude for a PD element in the Plan, and Director Keating advised that any developer could take that direction but did not believe it could be made mandatory. Commissioner Eggert felt that if the Plan is adopted at this time and is not working within a few years, it can be adjusted periodically. Chairman Macht welcomed Mayor Firtion of Sebastian. Mayor Art Firtion of the City of Sebastian believed that the Plan would be a dangerous thing for him to get involved in and issued an open invitation to the Commissioners and citizens to a December 9, 1995 Planning and zoning Seminar with a gentleman from Tallahassee. He has been told the seminar would help the citizens of Sebastian and felt it might assist everyone else.
