PF - BOOK 99 PACE 13 - Community Development Director Robert Keating reviewed the Comp Plan amendment process, advising that this is the first public hearing before the Board of County Commissioners on this land use amendment request. If the Board approves the transmittal of this application to the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) in Tallahassee for their 90 -day review, a second and final public hearing will be scheduled to consider any comments made by the DCA and whether to adopt an ordinance amending the Comp Plan by redesignating the land use. If the Board denies the transmittal of an application to the DCA, the application process will come to an end. The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. Attorney Michael O'Haire, representing the applicant, advised he is available to answer any questions. Attorney Warren Dill, representing Peter Rodriguez, stated that on November 5th the Board had discussed a potential cap on commercial designations to be allowed at 58th Avenue and SR -60. The main reason for his appearance today was to get a comfort level from the Board so that, should the music stop, they would not be the last left standing. He believed that staff's understanding of the Board's direction was to remove the commercial cap from the Comp Plan. Director Keating advised that the cap will be removed. The Chairman asked if anyone else wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, she closed the public hearing. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Tippin, the Board unanimously adopted Resolution 96-140 (Banack) approving the transmittal of a proposed amendment to the Indian River County Comprehensive Plan to the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs for its review.
