or reclassification on one property does not necessarily result in a domino effect on other <br />properties. <br />Deputy County Attorney Will Collins explained that the proposed Comprehensive <br />Plan amendment does set out policy which is supposed to be applied uniformly. Unless a <br />property has different factual situations, if accepted, Mr. O'Haire's proposal would have to <br />be applied to any properties that could meet those criteria. <br />Mr. Beutell also pointed out that the urban service area is a capricious line which <br />really makes no sense and pointed it out on the map in the Chambers. He felt it makes no <br />sense to have a 24 -inch main water line and a 12 -inch sewer line go by property unused for <br />70 years as they would deteriorate by that time. <br />Architect John Dean advised that in the last year and a half he had looked at several <br />similar properties and, while he realized there has to be a global long-range plan, he has seen <br />transitional zoning work and be effective. He requested the Board take a serious look at Mr. <br />O'Haire's proposal. He has been on three properties recently where the owners are planning <br />to just let their trees deteriorate. <br />Peter Robinson, 315 Greytwig Road, thought most everyone lives on property which <br />at one time was agricultural. He felt the basic ag issues are the pink grapefruit problem and <br />the drop in the number of farm workers. Another problem is the Land Use Map has a "U" - <br />shaped area which was in the urban service area in the 1980's when the plan was sent off to <br />Tallahassee was objected to after negotiations and the County ended up with the "U" -shaped <br />area being removed from the service area. Another issue is that when property is developed <br />by a church, it comes right off the tax roll. Eventually there could be a "church row" on 58' <br />Avenue with no tax income. As a developer, he receives calls all the time by property <br />owners to develop their inactive grove properties. He felt the Board needed to start planning <br />for this transition area and also disputed the 70 -year projection by staff. <br />October 9, 2000 <br />19 <br />BK 1 15 PG 374 <br />
