s � � <br />Commissioner Adams questioned whether the Board would consider an additional <br />review of the item and general discussion ensued regarding types of housing and zoning. <br />Director Keating felt that increasing density in limited areas would bring more people <br />closer to the activity centers which would benefit the County. He pointed out to the Board <br />that this issue will have to be dealt with, if not now, sometime in the near future. <br />Commissioner Ginn believed there were other options and wanted to be able to give <br />the Kerr Center an additional 5 years without any additional encroachment. <br />Commissioners Ginn and Adams were opposed to this amendment. <br />The Chairman asked if anyone else wished to be heard regarding this matter. There <br />being none, she closed the public hearing. <br />The Chairman then opened the public hearing regarding Future Lane Use Map Items <br />4, (City of Sebastian) Change from Rural Land Use designation to L-1, and 5, (40 acres <br />West of Kings Highway), Change from Rural to L-1, and asked if anyone wished to speak <br />on either matter. <br />Laurie Hoffman of 8406 75' Court commented that the land on the other side of <br />CR -510 has been redesignated to allow 200% more homes and she felt this redesignation <br />would greatly impact the traffic and schools in the area. She stated they live in that area for <br />the privacy and implored the Board to leave the zoning as is. <br />Chairman Eggert stated that all zoning will stay the same, there will only be a <br />redesignation. <br />Rodney Tillman stated he has lived here over 50 years and seen a lot of changes. <br />He realizes people want to make a profit from the land and the County wants to increase its <br />tax base. His concern is the effect on the Indian River Lagoon and the possibility that the <br />State might force the County to build large reservoirs to handle subsequent pollution caused <br />by septic tanks. <br />Tanya Tillman of 8456 75' Court was also opposed to the redesignation. <br />Richard Gaberhardt of 8320 751` Court felt 1 acre tracts should remain available <br />to the public. <br />NOVEMBER 4, 1997 83 ri <br />BOOK 103 FA -GE 3 1 u <br />
