BOOK 99 F,n4057 Commissioner Ginn questioned whether signs in connection with the Wabasso Corridor Plan would remain the same throughout the county, and Director Boling advised there would be some lessening in size with the height limited to 10 feet. Because of the reduction in height and size, the signs will be allowed to be a little closer to the road, up to 1 foot of the right-of-way. Chairman Adams opened the public hearing and asked if anyone in the audience wished to address any of the land development regulation changes that are proposed tonight that we have not already discussed. Bev Robinson inquired whether the Wabasso Corridor Plan specifies the types of landscaping people have to use. Director Boling referred to Page 9 of the proposed Ordinance which is the beginning of the list of required landscaping. Ms. Robinson felt it is a mistake to limit the landscaping so severely because we are in an area where the tropics begin and there are many other plants that don't freeze. Director Boling explained that this approach has not been taken on SR -60; the Wabasso Corridor is a theme area. Karl Hedin stated that his site plan was approved by staff with stipulations and they have been very flexible as long as the landscaping is within the general theme. In response to Commissioner Tippin's inquiry, Mr. Hedin advised that he will use reuse water as reclaimed water is very desirable to use in a car wash. Altamonte Springs is using reuse water widely. Chairman Adams inquired whether 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 Ginn, the Board unanimously approved submitting the ordinance to the next public hearing on December 17, 1996 at 9:05 A.M. 2 DECEMBER 4, 1996 � � r
