RICHARD BOGOSIAN, ATTORNEY REPRESENTING LAUREL HOMES, INC. AND CUSTOMER SERVICE INC., APPEARED. ATTENDING WITH HIM WERE OFFICIALS OF THOSE COMPANIES, PETER ROBINSON, VICE PRESIDENT; JOE ROBINSON, VICE PRESIDENT; AND BOB SHUTS, PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER, ATTORNEY BOGOSIAN TOOK THE FLOOR AND STATED THAT HE FELT EVERYTHING HAD GOTTEN OUT OF PERSPECTIVE; THAT SINCE HE HAD TOLD THE BOARD SOME OF THEIR DREAMS AND HOPES FOR THE FUTURE, IT HAD UNDOUBTEDLY CONFUSED THINGS. HE EXPLAINED THAT ALL THEY ARE ASKING FOR AT THIS TIME' IS A 100,000 GALLON A DAY PLANT WHICH WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO SERE ABOUT 300 HOMES - NOT A PLANT THAT WILL COVER 40 ACRES. MR. BOGOSIAN CONTINUED THAT THEY CAN ONLY DEVELOP THE FRANCHISE AREA THAT THE BOARD WILL GIVE THEM. IN ORDER TO BUILD A BIGGER UNIT, THEY WILL NEED ADDITIONAL FRANCHISE AREA AND WOULD HAVE TO COME BACK TO THE BOARD. HE POINTED OUT THAT HIS REQUEST TODAY IS VERY LIMITED (NOT A MILLION GALLON A DAY PLANT) AND IS IN LINE WITH WHAT OTHERS HAVE BEEN GRANTED TIME AND TIME AGAIN. ATTORNEY BOGOSIAN FURTHER STATED THAT MR. ROBINSON WILL GIVE THE COUNTY ANY LINES 6 INCHES AND UNDER IN THE SUBDIVISION; ANY LINES OUTSIDE THE SUBDIVISION, THE COUNTY WOULD HAVE TO BUY. JAMES BEINDORF, COUNTY ENGINEER, EXPLAINED THAT FOR ANY OF THOSE ELEMENTS OUTSIDE OF THE SUBDIVISION THAT COULD BECOME PART OF THE COUNTY SYSTEM, THE COUNTY WOULD HAVE TO REIMBURSE THE DEVELOPER. ATTORNEY BOGOSIAN INFORMED THE BOARD THAT THEY ALREADY HAVE THE PERMIT TO PUT THE PLANT UP AND ARE ONLY ASKING FOR A SMALL FRANCHISE AREA OF 80 ACRES. CHAIRMAN LOY ASKED HOW MANY OF THE BASIC SEWER AND WATER FRANCHISES THAT HAVE BEEN GRANTED BY THE COUNTY HAVE THE ACTUAL LOCATION OF THE FACILITIES OUTSIDE OF THE SUBDIVISION. MR. BEINDORF ANSWERED THAT HE KNEW OF ONLY ONE - THE ONE SERV- ING VERA CRUZ, PEBBLE BAY, AND SOME OTHER CONDOMINIUMS NORTH OF VERO BEACH ON AIA. -32- SEP 2 41975 sow( 23 .1V.,1 355 COMMISSIONER SIEBERT ASKED WHY CAN'T THE PLANT BE LOCATED WHERE THE SUBDIVISION IS? PETER ROBINSON STATED THAT F.H.A. AND V.A. REGULATIONS REQUIRE THAT RESIDENTS MUST BE 399' FROM EXISTING UTILITY SERVICES, WHICH WOULD EXPLAIN THE LOCATION OF THE PLANT, AND ALSO THEY FELT THIS IS A MORE SUITABLE LOCATION FOR IT. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT QUESTIONED THE AFFECT OF SUCH A PLANT ON THE AVAILABILITY OF WATER, AND MR, BOGOSIAN REPLIED THAT IT WOULD BE A SMALL PLANT AND WOULD HAVE NO AFFECT NOW. THIS WOULD BE A PROBLEM FOR THE FUTURE, MR. BEINDORF STATED THAT WHILE THE BOARD CAN GRANT A FRANCHISE, THE FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT GOVERNS PERMITS FOR THE WATER SUPPLY AND WILL REQUIRE SPECIFIC ENGINEERING DATA BEFORE ISSUING A PERMIT FOR A WELL OF 100,000 GALLONS A DAY AND OVER. HE EXPLAINED THAT A WELL OF THIS SIZE MEANS ABOUT 100 GALLONS A MINUTE, WHICH IS NOT ACTUALLY A LARGE QUANTITY, AND IN HIS EXPERIENCE WILL NOT AFFECT PEOPLE IN THE AREA, COMMISSIONER UODTKE ASKED ATTORNEY COLLINS WHETHER THERE IS ANY RESTRICTION ABOUT ALLOWING A COMMERCIAL OPERATION SUCH AS THIS IN RESIDENTIAL ZONING. ATTORNEY COLLINS ANSWERED THAT ESSENTIAL SERVICES ARE PERMITTED IN ANY DISTRICT AS REGULATED BY LAW, THE BUILDINGS, HOWEVER, ARE SUBJECT TO SITE PLAN APPROVAL, CHAIRMAN LOY ASKED IF ANYONE PRESENT WISHED TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF OR AGAINST THIS PROJECT. .JONNI DEAR, A RESIDENT OF 27TH AVE., TOOK THE FLOOR AND PRESENTED A PETITION OPPOSING THE SEWER PLANT BEING ERECTED AT 27TH AVENUE AND REBEL ROAD, WHICH PETITION IS HEREBY MADE PART OF THESE MINUTES: -33- SEP 2 4 19 15 8O J 23 '11q.35 Sept. 1975 Petition, to Court-, rommtpior - Indian River County We as residents of 27th.

AvAnue and Rebel Road as proposed by Customer Service,Inc. to serve a housing develorment to be located on 20th; Avenue. We recognize the need for a sewer system that may later be merged and operated by the County but are strongly opposed to the proposed chosen site. Our feeling is that it should be placed in a location where there are no existing residences in the immediate area or located on or near the site it is to presently serve. It. is also our feel- ing that the erection of a sewer plant at the proposed site can only serve to devaluate our property, create unpleasant odors, cause us much inconvenience whiJ.e beim; constructed and offer a totally unacceptable and unpleasant view to those of us in the immediate area.

COLE, OWNER, AND BOB HOFMANN, DEVELOPER, MADE THE PRESENTATION, HE SPOKE OF MR. HOFMANN'S EFFORTS TO DEVELOP SOME LOW COST HOUSING IN INDIAN RIVER COUNTY AND STATED THAT THE ZONING BOARD OBJECTED MAINLY TO ANY MOBILE HOME PARKS IN THIS AREA AND BECAUSE THE PROPOSAL CONFLICTED WITH THE MASTER PLAN AND HAD CERTAIN ACCESS PROBLEMS. HE EXPLAINED THIS IS AN 150 ACRE SITE, APPROXIMATELY 120 ACRES OF WHICH WILL BE DEVELOPED INTO THE ACTUAL SUBDIVISION, THERE IS AN AREA SET ASIDE FOR THE SEWER AND WATER PLANT AND A SMALL AREA FOR FIRE AND POLICE STATIONS, MR, HENDERSON POINTED OUT THAT THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS A PERMANENT MOBILE HOME SUBDIVISION AND WOULD HAVE TO BE SUBDIVIDED, IT WILL CON- SIST OF APPROXIMATELY 480 UNITS ABOUT 60 X 100 EACH, WHICH IS OVER THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE CALLED FOR IN THE ORDINANCE, AND IT WILL HAVE A TOTAL DENSITY OF 3.6 UNITS PER ACRE, WHICH IS NOT TYPICAL OF MOBILE HOME RENTAL PARKS, ATTORNEY HENDERSON SAID HE FELT THIS REPRESENTS A SOLUTION TO THE LOW COST HOUSING PROBLEM IN THE COUNTY AS IT WOULD MAKE AVAILABLE F.H.A. AND V.A. FINANCING AND ASKED THE BOARD -TO CONSIDER THE PROJECT ON ITS MERITS AS PRESENTED TODAY IN SPITE OF THE DISAPPROVAL OF THE ZONING COMMISSION. A PROGRAM OF NARRATED SLIDES WAS THEN PRESENTED, SHOWING PICTURES OF ATTRACTIVE UNITS SET UP ON A PERMANENT BASE AND NICELY LANDSCAPED. .THE NARRATION COMPARED THE TAXES RECEIVED FROM A PERMANENT PARK SUCH AS THIS WITH THOSE OF A RENTAL PARK AND CLAIMED THAT THE COUNTY WOULD RECEIVE APPROXIMATELY $650.00 MORE IN TAXES PER ACRE FROM THE PERMANENT MOBILE HOME PARK. ATTORNEY HENDERSON STATED THAT THEY DID NOT FEEL THAT THE SURROUNDING AREA WAS INCONSISTENT WITH THEIR PROPOSAL AND SHOWED SLIDES OF THE PRESENT DEVELOPMENT NEAR THE PLANNED SITE ON LINDSAY ROAD, STATING THAT THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 15 HOMES IN THIS AREA AT PRESENT AND THERE IS ALREADY A MIXTURE OF MOBILE HOMES AND RESIDENCES, HE PERSONALLY FELT THE SURROUNDING AREA AS DEVELOPED IS LESS DESIRABLE THAN THE PROPOSED PROJECT. -65- SEP 2 41976 Box 23A387 ATTORNEY HENDERSON THEN PRESENTED PETITIONS SIGNED BY CITIZENS EXPRESSING THEIR CONCERN ABOUT THE LACK OF LOW COST HOUSING IN THE COUNTY, WHICH PETITIONS ARE HEREBY MADE A PART OF THESE MINUTES° RECORD,) SEP 2 41975 (THESE PETITIONS WILL BE MADE A PART OF THE OFFICIAL -66- eot3K 23 -'a::i 3S8 ATTORNEY HENDERSON STATED THAT THERE IS PRESENTLY NO PERMA- NENT MOBILE HOME ZONING IN THE COUNTY; THAT THIS ZONING IS A CLASSIFICA- TION THAT HAS NEVER BEEN USED, DEWEY WALKER, ZONING DIRECTOR,.

HE INFORMED THE BOARD THAT HE HAS OWNED PROPERTY HERE SINCE 1954 AND PRESENTLY OWNS ALMEDA RANCH WHICH COMPRISES 700 ACRES. HE FEELS THAT HE IS COGNIZANT OF THE PROBLEMS FACING THE COUNTY. HE POINTED OUT THAT PEOPLE WANTING DELUXE HOMES GO TO JOHN'S ISLAND AND THE BEACH AREA AND FEELS YOU MUST BE A REALIST WHEN YOU OWN:PROPERTY WEST Of THE RIVER AS THIS IS THE MOST ATTRACTIVE AREA TO THE LOW AND.AVERAGE WAGE EARNERS. MR. COLE STATED THE ONLY WAY TO PROVIDE HOUSING FOR A PERSON EARING $10,000 TO $12,000 A YEAR IS WITH MOBILE HOME HOUSING. HE REALIZES THAT THE VERY NAME "MOBILE HOME° HAS HAD A STIGMA ATTACHED TO IT, BUT DOESN'T FEEL THIS IS TRUE ANY MORE. ATTORNEY HENDERSON INTRODUCED THE DEVELOPER OF THE PROPOSED. PROJECT, BOB HOFMANN. CHAIRMAN LOY INFORMED THOSE PRESENT THAT THE PETITION PRE- SENTED BY MR, HENDERSON EARLIER IN REGARD TO THE NEED FOR LOW COST HOUSING CONTAINS APPROXIMATELY 85 NAMES AND THE PETITION SUBMITTED TO THE BOARD OPPOSING THIS PROJECT CONTAINS 11 NAMES. COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER ASKED HOW MANY UNITS PER ACRE ARE ALLOWED IN THIS ZONING. ATTORNEY HENDERSON SAID THAT THE ZONING ALLOWS 8 UNITS PER ,.ACRE, BUT THEIR LAYOUT WAS PLANNED FOR LESS THAN 4 UNITS PER ACRE, COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER NOTED THAT THIS WAS THE SAME AS R-1 RESIDENTIAL. CHAIRMAN LOY ASKED HOW THE TAX FIGURES PRESENTED IN THE NARRATION WERE ARRIVED AT, MMR. HOFMANN ANSWERED THAT FIGURES WERE TAKEN FROM TAX ROLLS OF FOUR OTHER SIMILAR PARKS AND AVERAGED. BAREFOOT BAY, A SIMILAR PROJECT IN THE NEXT COUNTY, WAS ONE OF THOSE USED. -72- SEP 2 41975 ifooK 23 ,,t :i SEP 2 41975 CHAIRMAN LOY SAID YOU ARE INDICATING THAT THESE WILL FALL UNDER PRIVATE OWNERSHIP. MR. HOFMANN AGREED AND STATED THAT THEY WILL HAVE THE $5,000 HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION. HE CONTINUED THAT THESE ARE ALL ON PERMANENT FOUNDATIONS AND THE WHEELS ARE REMOVED. THE HOMES WILL RANGE FROM $15,000 TO $20,000 INCLUDING THE LOT, CHAIRMAN LOY ASKED FOR THE COMMENTS OF THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT. VAL BRENNAN, PLANNING DIRECTOR, NOTED THAT THE ZONING COMMIS- SION HAS RECOMMENDED DENIAL. HE ALSO POINTED OUT THAT IF THESE WERE MODULAR HOMES YOU WOULDN'T NEED ANY CHANGE OF ZONING, BUT THESE ARE MOBILE HOMES AND COME IN ON WHEELS WHICH ARE THEN REMOVED AND THEY BECOME.PERMANENT IN PLACE. ROBERT BERG, ASSISTANT PLANNING DIRECTOR, EXPLAINED THAT A MODULAR HOME IS CONSTRUCTED COMPLETELY ACCORDING TO THE BUILDING CODE WHILE MOBILE HOMES ONLY HAVE TO COMPLY WITH STATE REGULATIONS WHICH ARE QUITE DIFFERENT. MR, BRENNAN FURTHER STATED THAT HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT DOES NOT RECOGNIZE MOBILE HOMES AS MEETING THE NEED FOR LOW COST HOUSING EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN GET THE FINANCING. HE CONTINUED THAT AT THE ZONING MEETING THE SUBJECT OF AVAILABILITY OF SERVICES WAS DISCUSSED AS A SUBDIVISION OF THIS SIZE WILL REQUIRE MORE SHERIFF SERVICE AND FIRE PROTECTION, ETC. DISCUSSION FOLLOWED ON THE NUMBER OF MOBILE HOME SITES NOW AVAILABLE. IT DEVELOPED THAT THERE ARE NUMEROUS MOBILE HOME SITES PRESENTLY AVAILABLE, BUT THESE ARE ALMOST COMPLETELY RENTAL SITES. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THERE ARE ONLY ABOUT 26 AVAILABLE SPACES IN THE COUNTY FOR A PERMANENT TYPE MOBILE HOME SITE AND SOME OF THESE MAY NOT BE FOR SALE. COMMISSIONER MASSEY ASKED IF THIS IS IN A WATER RESERVOIR AREA. ROBERT BERG SAID THAT ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH SHOWS THAT 95% OF THE SITE IS IMPROVED PASTURE; THE LAND IS LOW AND SANDY AND WILL RE- QUIRE MUCH FILL AND YOU WOULD HAVE A DRAINAGE PROBLEM. -73- flax 23 ., :.39O ATTORNEY HENDERSON REMARKED AT THIS POINT THAT IT IS TRUE THAT THESE ARE NOT MODULAR HOMES, BUT NOTED THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN PRICE AND HE WAS NOT REALLY CONVINCED THAT MODULAR HOMES WOULD REALLY MEET THE NEEDS OF LOW COST HOUSING, ALSO, AS TO DRAINAGE, SITE PLAN APPROVAL WOULD ASSURE THAT THERE WAS ADEQUATE DRAINAGE, CHAIRMAN LOY ASKED DOES THIS FALL UNDER THE DISTRICT OF REGIONAL IMPACT REQUIREMENT? ATTORNEY HENDERSON SAID IT WOULD NOT UNLESS IT HAD MORE THAN 500 UNITS. CHAIRMAN LOY ASKED WHAT AGE GROUP THEY WERE CATERING TO. MR. HOFMANN REPLIED THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TWO SECTIONS - A FAMILY SECTION AND AN ADULT SECTION. CHAIRMAN LOY ASKED IF THEY HAD DONE ANY STUDY AS TO THEIR IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITY AS FAR AS SCHOOLS AND VARIOUS SERVICES WERE CONCERNED, AND THEY HAD NOT. CHAIRMAN LOY THEN ASKED IF ANYONE PRESENT WISHED TO SPEAK, WILLIAM MACBLAIN, A RESIDENT OF LINDSAY ROAD, SPOKE OPPOSING THE PROPOSED PROJECT, HE SAID THE IMPACT ON THE SCHOOLS,'POLICE AND EMPLOYMENT ALL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AND NOTED FOR THE RECORD THAT THE PETITION SUBMITTED IN OPPOSITION CONTAINS 12 NAMES. •SAM TILLIS OF LINDSAY ROAD SPOKE IN FAVOR OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT AND SAID HE DOESN'T FEEL THE IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITY WILL BE THAT GREAT SINCE HE FELT LOCAL PEOPLE WILL BE BUYING THESE HOMES. HE PERSONALLY FELT IT WOULD BE AN ASSET TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. DONNA HOLLAND OF KINGSBERRY ROAD SPOKE IN OPPOSITION SAYING THAT SHE DID NOT WANT AN "INSTANT NEIGHBORHOOD OF OVER 400 PEOPLE," MRS. PAMELA PROFFITT OF KINGSBERRY ROAD SPOKE IN OPPOSITION AND STATED THAT SHE BELIEVED MOBILE HOME OWNERS HAVE A CHOICE OF EITHER PAYING FOR A TAG OR PAYING TAXES, WHICH SHE FELT WOULD CONSIDERABLY REDUCE THE TAX FIGURES PRESENTED BY THE DEVELOPER. DAVID SMITH STATED THAT HE SPOKE FOR THE RESIDENTS OF LINDSAY ROAD WHO ARE ALL OPPOSED TO THE PROPOSED PROJECT, -74- .SEP 24 1975 BOON 23 , i, -39i COMMISSIONER WODTKE ASKED MR. HOFMANN HOW HE COULD BE SURE, SINCE HE WILL ACTUALLY BE SELLING THESE 1/4 ACRES, THAT NEIGHBOR A WILL KEEP HIS YARD UP AS WELL AS NEIGHBOR B. MR. HOFMANN REPLIED THAT THEY WILL HAVE A LOT OF RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. HE FURTHER STATED THAT THEY WILL BE PLANTING QUITE A NUMBER OF TREES ON THE PROPERTY AND HEDGES. ON THE PERIMETER TO CLOSE IT OFF FROM THE ROAD. COMMISSIONER WODTKE ASKED IF THERE REALLY IS AN OPTION ON HOW TO PAY THE TAX. ATTORNEY HENDERSON STATED THAT THE KEY IS THE PERMANENT FOUNDA- TION AND THE REMOVAL OF WHEELS. WHEN THIS IS DONE, THE OPTION IS NOT AVAILABLE AS IT BECOMES A REGULAR SUBDIVISION, THIS DOES NOT APPLY IN A RENTAL PARK. COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER POINTED OUT THAT THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL BE A LOW DENSITY DEVELOPMENT, EQUIVALENT TO R-1, EVEN THOUGH WITH THIS ZONING THEY COULD HAVE DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF UNITS. HE STATED THAT HE IS ON THE Low COST HOUSING COMMITTEE AND KNOWS THE COUNTY HAS GOT TO HAVE SOME LOW COST HOUSING AND HE CAN'T SEE ANY OTHER WAY TO SUPPLY IT. ROBERT BERG SAID HE FELT THE QUESTION WITH. REGARD TO A CHOICE OF WAYS TO PAY TAX SHOULD BE RESEARCHED AS HE WAS NOT SURE THE:STATE- MENTS MADE WERE CORRECT. ATTORNEY HENDERSON ASKED THAT SOMEONE FROM THE PROPERTY •APPRAISER'S OFFICE BE SENT FOR TO ANSWER THE QUESTION. COMMISSIONER MASSEY STATED THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO OPPOSE THIS PROJECT BECAUSE.WE NEED ALL OF OUR AGRICULTURAL LAND, AND ALSO BECAUSE IT IS NEAR A WATER RESERVE AREA AND IS A RESIDENTIAL AREA AT THIS TIME. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT SAID HE SAW NO NEED TO CONTINUE THE PUBLIC HEARING, BUT IF IT WAS DESIRED TO POSTPONE THE DECISION UNTIL THE NEXT MEETING SO THEY COULD DO SOME MORE RESEARCH, HE WOULD BE AGREEABLE. CHAIRMAN LOY AGREED AND SAID SHE WAS NOT READY TO MAKE A DECISION TODAY. SHE ASKED ATTORNEY HENDERSON IF HE HAD A CLOSING STATEMENT. -75- SEP 241975 Boox 23 ,392 392 ATTORNEY HENDERSON SAID THE WORD "IMPACT" HAS BEEN RAISED SEVERAL TIMES, AND HE DOESN'T FEEL A DEVELOPMENT SHOULD BE TURNED DOWN BECAUSE OF UNCERTAIN IMPACT ON SCHOOLS, FIRE PROTECTION, ETC, IF ITS TAXES PAY THE WAY, THEN THEY ARE LIKE ANY OTHER RESIDENT, HE FELT IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO DETERMINE HOW MANY PEOPLE WORK INTHE COUNTY BUT LIVE IN ANOTHER COUNTY OR IN THE NORTHERN OR WESTERN REACHES BECAUSE OF THE HIGH COST OF HOMES IN THIS AREA, MRS, RUTH LONGAKER OF THE PROPERTY APPRAISER'S OFFICE APPEARED AND STATED THAT WITH REGARD TO MOBILE HOMES, THE OWNER HAS A CHOICE OF BUYING A TAG OR "ASSESSING IT TO THE GROUND" WHICH ALLOWS THEM TO FILE FOR HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION.
