Community Development Director Bob Keating reviewed the Memorandum and <br />stated that staff felt the project was incompatible with adjacent residential development. <br />This is the last opportunity to file an objection with the Department of Community Affairs <br />over the access issue, which is the major objection. <br />Commissioner Macht felt the access issue has been blown out of proportion and he <br />did not want to object to the project. He felt the City has spoken and the County should not <br />get involved in their issues. <br />Commissioner Adams had thought that the last direction to staff was to work on using <br />130`h Street as the access to that property, and Director Keating responded that the land swap <br />had been approved by the Board at their meeting of February 5, 2002; however, Mr. Kirrie <br />did not wish to comply with the conditions involved. <br />Chairman Stanbridge was concerned that any type of industrial usage would be <br />available if Mr. Kirrie's project does not go through, and Director Keating recommended <br />that the Board consider all the options which would be available, not just the option being <br />requested by the applicant. <br />Commissioner Macht commented that the proposed employees translate into a lot of <br />taxpayers. <br />Commissioner Tippin commented that this is just an existing industry which is <br />expanding. <br />MAY 7, 2002 <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Macht, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Tippin, that the <br />Board not submit the letter of objections. <br />-85- <br />
