Attorney Joe Collins representing Idlewylde, stated this <br />developer has a long history of working with and supporting the <br />County and has proven they do quality work. The development as <br />proposed has a lake, recreation areas, tennis courts and will be a <br />benefit to the County and the people who will live there. The <br />small difference in lots is made up for by the amenities being <br />provided. <br />Dewey Walker of 6285 33rd Street felt that when a man owns <br />property, he ought to be able to use it, and he did not oppose the <br />project. <br />Plato Kirby of 6370 33rd Street stated he owns the 40 acres to <br />the north and has retained 10 acres of the property sold to the <br />developer for his home. He -was concerned about the neighbors but <br />felt this will be a quality development and would not plan to stay <br />in the area if he didn't think so. <br />Bill Gabriel of 2975 59th Avenue has lived in the area for 6 <br />years and when he discovered Idlewylde would be the developer, he <br />felt encouraged that this would be an outstanding development and <br />would enhance his property values. <br />Mary Jane Freeland of 6550 52nd Avenue felt the PD ordinance <br />provides an opportunity to protect the environment through flexible <br />housing styles and recreational activities. <br />Attorney Barkett felt that Mr. Ford's concerns about <br />additional traffic have been addressed by the developer who is <br />putting in a turn lane on 33rd Street which is not required by the <br />County. <br />The Chairman asked if anyone else wished to be heard in this <br />matter.
