staff
report.
D
D
A
F
I
know
that
we
find
the
proposed
change
of
zoning
consistent
with
the
comprehensive
plan
and
land
development
code
and
recommend
approval
of
the
proposed
change

Industrial
district
for
the
property
owned

located
north

Subject:
properties
were
annexed
into
the
city
on
december
31st,
1996
and
october
21st
2020,
via
ordinances
number
1022
and
2794
respectively.
The
applicant
is
requesting
a
future
land
use
amendment
from
county
and
city
industrial
to
city
commercial,
in
order
to
construct
a
convenience
store
with
gasoline
sales
on
the
property.
G
The
proposed
commercial
future
land
use
is
consistent
with
the
surrounding
areas.
441
is
considered
to
be
a
commercial
corridor.
The
development
review
committee
recommends
approval
and
the
staff
recommends
approval.
If
you
have
any
questions,
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
them
and
I
believe
the
applicant
has
a
brief
presentation
as
well.
C
H
Please
evening
my
name
is
tara.
Tedder,
I'm
from
lounge
drastic
215,
north
eola
drive
orlando
florida.
Just
a
brief
presentation.
The
staff
report
was
thorough,
but
just
wanted
to
show
you
all
the
overview
of
the
subject
property,
the
current
site,
conditions
that
are
built
out
there
today,
part
of
it
is
vacant
and
the
other
part
of
it
has
an
older
retail
facility
on
the
site.
H
So
the
intended
upgrades
to
the
site
will
have,
I
think,
more
compatibility
with.
What's
there
currently
so
there's
already
some
commercial
and
retail
uses,
and
you
can
see
the
surrounding
zoning
districts,
some
of
which
are
in
the
county,
some
of
which
are
in
the
city,
are
both
industrial
and
commercial
in
nature.
H
H
So
our
request
is
for
a
recommendation
for
approval
consistent
with
staff
and
drc's
findings
on
both
the
future
land
use
map
amendment,
as
well
as
the
rezoning
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
have.
I
won't
come
back
up
for
another
same
presentation
on
the
next
item.
Unless
there's
any
questions
or
comments
from
the
audience.
Okay,.
B
Okay,
I
have
a
question:
will
you
rewind
to
the
how
you
want
to
reuse
the
property.
H
H
B
H
F
F
Have
you
done
a
traffic
study?
Are
you
working
to
get?
Those
are
two
lane
roads
before
I
turned
onto
the
highway
and
I
finally
had
to
go
out
into
the
middle
of
the
road
so
that
when
the
oncoming
traffic
coming
out
of
lakeview
finally
stopped,
then
I
could
finally
make
the
turn
and
you're
going
to
put
commercial
property
along
the
west
side
of
that
street
they're
not
going
to
be
able
to
get
in
or
out
when
when
there's
rush
traffic.
F
B
C
F
H
H
I
know
there's
nothing
that
can
be
done
on
the
trail
yeah
right,
but
on
lakeview
drive
at
least
we're
currently
talking
with
the
city
about
the
width
of
the
right-of-way
dedication
they
would
need
if
the
site
remains
as
it
is
today,
and
we
don't
redevelop
it,
then
the
project
is
going
to
have
the
same
exact
width
on
lakeview
drive.
There
won't
be
able
to
be
those
access
improvements
on
lakeview
for
that
intersection,
short
of
there
being
a
taking
or
some
eminent
domain
initiated
by
the
city
to
acquire
private
property
for
those
public
improvements.
H
So
one
of
the
one
of
the
benefits
would
be.
We
will
at
least
be
able
to
provide
some
of
the
needed
right-of-way
that
the
city
wants
to
construct
things
like
wider
turn
lanes
into
that
intersection,
and
we
do
have
to
work
with
them
to
go
through
the
site
plan
review
process
to
ensure
that
we
meet
those
conditions
for
upgraded
access,
because
the
site
is
deficient
today
under
access
standards.
So
at
a
minimum
we
would
have
an
enhanced
a
safer
access
and
pedestrian
connectivity
along
our
property,
which
doesn't
currently
exist.
H
So
one
of
the
issue-
and
I
and
I
represent
a
lot
of
national
retailers
for
for
commercial
gas
stations
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
always
deal
with
at
every
location
we
go
in
and
that
is
proven
by
the
traffic
manuals
on
a
national
basis
is
that
gas
station
convenience
stores
have
something
called
capture
traffic.
So
the
benefit
is
nobody
goes
to
a
gas
station
as
a
destination.
You
don't
you
know,
get
up
and
say
you
know.
I
think
I'm
going
to
drive
20
miles
out
of
the
way,
because
I
really
like
that.
H
7-Eleven
people
go
on
the
way
to
and
from
work
and
really
that's
why
you
find
gas
stations
on
opposite
sides
of
corners
is
because
we
capture
traffic
that
is
heading
already
in
a
predetermined
destination.
So
from
a
commercial
standpoint,
traffic
is
actually
minimized
when
you
have
capture
traffic
and
it's
up
to
70
percent
of
traffic
is
captured
by
a
use
of
a
convenience
store
and
gas
station,
and
that's
what
we've
proposed.
We've
submitted
that
site
plan
to
your
staff.
But
again
we
still
have
to
work
out.
H
It's
only
conceptual
right
now
we
still
have
to
work
out
those
access
improvements
at
that
intersection,
and
I
think
it's
going
to
take
some
time
right.
It's
going
to
take
the
property
across
the
street
redeveloping
to
have
to
dedicate
some
right-of-way
as
well
to
the
city
so
that
that
intersection
can
be
approved.
F
H
From
a
marketability
perspective,
you
know
all
of
our
clients
do
that
type
of
market
analysis
to
determine
whether
there
is
in
fact
a
need
and
a
demand,
especially
when
some
of
those
outdated
gas
stations
are
there.
They
have
terrible
access
and
it's
typically
unsafe
access.
It's
not
built
to
the
widths
that
you
would
want
today.
They
don't
have
separation
from
driveways
and
access
points
that
would
be
required
today.
H
So,
if
anything,
I
think
we'll
probably
have
the
safer
of
the
gas
stations
along
that
corridor,
because
it
will
be
built
brand,
new
and
it'll
be
built
to
code
and
all
of
the
current
standards,
and
so
I'm
sure,
if
there's
anything
else,
staff
wants
to
add.
But
but
we've
had
that
discussion,
they've
brought
up
the
traffic
concerns
and
the
issues
that
they're
facing.
I
hope
we
can
be
aware
of.
H
A
Okay,
we'll
close
the
presentations
and
open
the
public
hearing.
I
do
have
an
intent
to
speak
card
from
on
this
item
from
benjamin
thompson.
I
My
name
is
benjamin
thompson,
my
wife
and
I
we're
the
owner
of
449
lakeview
drive,
which
is
right
at
that
corner
right
there
that
we're
referencing,
so
we're
familiar
with
the
traffic,
I'm
here
to
speak
against
the
potential
of
the
future
land
use
of
this
area.
As
we
just
heard,
I
was
also
informed
that
the
plan
for
this
land
was
to
construct
not
just
a
7-11
but
7-11
for
a
gas
station
with
diesel
tanks,
as
for
specifically
for
the
my
apologies,
the
larger
commercial
trucks.
I
I
have
multiple
concerns,
but
due
to
the
time
I'll
keep
it
brief.
My
first
concern
would
definitely
be
the
health
aspect
of
this.
There
are
multiple
health
concerns
that
come
with
having
a
gas
station
in
the
immediate
area
of
our
home,
the
first
being
benzene
benzene
is
a
colorless
flammable
liquid
that
is
present
at
and
around
gas
stations.
I
I
The
last
effective
benzene
that
I
do
want
to
bring
up
because
of
its
personal
importance
to
me
is
the
fact
that
there
are
studies
that
link
exposure
to
benzene
to
pregnancy,
concerns
and
birth
defects,
birth
defects
such
as
low
birth
weight,
increased
instances
of
children
born
with
spina
bifida
and
increased
childhood
leukemia.
I
According
to
the
study
by
columbia,
university
benzene
is
found
within
525
feet
from
gas
stations,
and
this
is
reflected
in
multiple
other
studies
as
well.
Another
area
from
health
is
ground
level.
Ozone
pollution,
it's
caused
by
a
mixture
of
chemicals
and
gas
that
you
find
around
gas
stations,
come
from
vehicles,
exhaust,
etc
service
station.
That
type
of
thing.
According
to
the
epa
national
institute
of
health,
ground
level,
ozone
reduces
lung
function
and
harms
lung
tissue,
causing
things
like
respiratory
problems
such
as
bronchitis
and
asthma.
I
My
next
thing
I
want
to
bring
up
is
environmental
concerns.
We
are
directly
as
you
can
see,
right
above
the
lake.
We
are
at
the
top
of
a
small
hill
from
the
lake,
so
we
were
definitely
it's
right
there.
Adding
a
gas
station
to
the
area
would
put
the
lake
and
the
wildlife
in
that
lake.
It's
a
natural
spring,
fed
lake,
so
putting
the
aquifer
everything
there
definitely
a
concern
and
putting
that
in
danger.
I
Research
has
shown
that
counts,
containment,
gas
station
containment
levels,
contaminant
levels
are
30
times
higher
than
an
average
residence,
which
is
definitely
much
higher,
and
a
john
hopkins
university
study
found
that
on
average,
40
gallons
of
gasoline
is
spilled
every
year
in
the
average
gas
station,
which
would
then
pour
into
the
ground
and
into
like
hand
right
there.
This
doesn't
even
cover
the
risk
of
underground
damage
to
the
tanks,
etc.
I
We've
spoke
briefly
on
well.
We
spoke
on
traffic
I'll
leave
that
there,
but
the
last
thing
I
do
want
to
bring
up
since
we
are
talking
specifically
with
the
commercial
trucks,
an
average
diesel
engine
truck
have
gets
up
to
100
decibels
of
volume,
which
is,
if
that
was
in
the
work
area,
would
require
hearing
protection
and
can
call
permanent
ear
damage,
which
is
a
concern.
I
When
we
purchased
my
home
myself,
my
wife,
we
did
so
with
the
intent
to
start
a
family
and
invest
in
our
home,
our
community
and
with
the
plan
to
contract
a
gas
station,
this
gas
station
specifically
in
this
area,
it
would
be
very
difficult,
if
not
impossible,
to
achieve
this
stream.
So
thank
you
guys
for
your
time.
I
really
appreciate
it.
E
Good
evening
I
filled
out
the
petition,
I
thought
I'd
be
on
there.
My
name
is
isaac
perez
my
wife
from
candice
hayes.
We
live
at
441
lake
view.
E
Okay,
I'm
before
I
do
apologize,
no,
this
dude,
I
can
come
back
up.
No,
no,
no!
No!
It's
fine!
So
a
number
of
things
that
he
touched
on
environmental
crime,
which
I
don't
think
he
touched
on
florida,
actually
has
a
statue
that
they've
actually
enacted
because
of
the
issues
that
gas
stations
bring
as
far
as
crime
I
have
it
listed
here.
I
can
provide
it
for
you.
It
actually
was
enacted
in
2006.
Due
to
the
issues
I
have
three
kids
they're
going
to
start
a
family.
E
E
I
understand
they
want
to
put
it
there
because
of
they
need
the
access,
but
we
have,
I
think
you
mentioned
it:
seven
gas
stations
and
a
two
mile
radius,
so
between
the
seven
gas
stations
and
the
two
mile
radius,
I
don't
know
if
it's
necessary
to
have
an
additional
one,
the
additional
amount
of
homes
that
will
be
putted
back
by
lake
apopka
and
binion.
The
influx
of
traffic
is
going
to
be
overwhelming.
I
mean
not
only
that
they're
going
to
have
to
worry
about
watershed.
That
is
a
large
surface
area
of
concrete.
E
Where
is
that
excess
water
going
to
go
into
the
lake
that
we
live
in
and
or
live
on?
If
there's
a
there's,
no
retention,
that
water
is
already
high
and
is
already
being
addressed
with
st
john's
water
management
due
to
the
watershed
off
the
coca-cola
factory?
Some
of
you
seem
like
you
know
that
area
pretty
well.
What
I
don't
want
to
see
is
a
community
that
was
built
in
1950
turned
into
an
industrial
slush.
E
Her
grandparents
built
the
house
next
door,
her
dad
still
lives
there.
My
grandmother
lives
a
house
stamp,
there's
a
number
of
kids
that
live
in
there
and
we
just
don't.
I
could
understand
if
it
was
a
necessity
or
something
that
would
benefit
the
community.
The
revenue
from
that
gas
station
will
be
dispersed
between
the
seven
that
are
around
there,
which
are
accessible.
The
racetrack
is
brand
new
on
hermit
smith
and
was
designed
to
influx
the
overflow
of
all
the
storage
facilities
being
built
back
there.
E
So
it's
a
little
it's
both
community
based
and
both
a
little
personal
based-
and
I
understand
you
know
that
there
may
be
a
revenue,
but
that's
going
to
be
distributed.
There's
a
lot
of
things,
so
I
just
felt
like
we
should
probably
come
up
here
and
speak
just
because
we
don't
want
to
see
the
decline
in
the
lake,
the
lake's
huge.
We
have
otters.
We
have
king
fishers,
we
have
animals
and
birds
that
are,
I
mean
we
have
crawfish
in
that
lake.
That's
abnormal
for
lakes.
E
In
florida
I
could
bring
you
fresh
water,
jelly,
r,
jelly
art,
shrimp,
fresh
water,
shrimp
out
that
lake
I
mean
her.
Grandparents
literally
had
that
house
built.
So
I
just
my
kids
make
fourth
generation
there,
so
this
is
tough
not
only
that,
but
it's
a
five
acre
spring
fed
lake,
the
crime.
If
you
look
at
statistics
on
crime,
the
gas
station
brings
six
percent
armed
robberies.
E
Nationwide
come
from
gas
stations,
it's
just
due
to
the
nature
of
what
they
are,
where
they
are.
There's
other
topics
that
I
can't
factually
speak
on.
So
I'm
not.
I
know
I've
got
a
little
bit
time
left
just
want
to
say
thank
you,
and
I
appreciate
it
have
a
good
night.
Alright,
thank
you
guys.
Okay,.
H
Tara
tedro
again
for
the
record,
I
can
appreciate
the
concerns
that
have
been
enumerated
by
the
local
residents.
I
mean
honestly
they're
the
concerns
that
I
hear
every
time
I
go
for
any
sort
of
convenience
store
gas
station
use,
and
so,
when
it
comes
to
things
like
the
benzenes
that
you've
heard
about
the
environmental
studies
are
actually
not
conclusive.
On
that
end,
and
so
some
of
those
studies
are
outdated
and
those
studies
really
do
speak
to
older
gas
stations
as
well.
The
newer
gas
stations
are
built
to
the
highest
environmental
standards.
H
We
have
to
comply
with
local
state
and
federal
regulations
on
gas
stations
for
a
concern
about
there
being
underground
leaking.
It
is
basically
impossible.
You
would
probably
have
to
drop
a
bomb
on
a
7-11
in
order
for
there
to
be
a
leak
because
the
underground
tanks
are
double-lined
and
they
have
24-hour
surveillance
on
those
tanks.
So
if
there
were
to
be
a
leak
from
the
interior
tank,
it
pours
into
another
underground
walled
tank
as
well.
H
That
would
then
not
leak
short
of
again
there
being
some
catastrophic
natural
disaster
or
something
that
would
probably
take
down
more
than
just
those
tanks,
and
so
those
types
of
24-hour
monitored
environmental
controls
make
this
use
incredibly
safe
compared
to
what
gas
stations
used
to
be,
which
was
not
as
safe,
which
is
why
the
rules
have
been
changed
and
the
technologies
have
improved
for
gas
stations
over
the
years.
In
addition,
there's
24-hour
third-party
monitoring
for
all
security
of
every
single
gas
station.
H
So
the
great
thing
about
things
like
7-eleven
is
that
if
there
is
a
robbery
or
somebody
tries
to
rob
a
7-eleven,
they
alert
every
single
gas
station
within
miles
of
that
store,
so
that
they
would
know
that
there
is
a
possibility
of
an
armed
robber
who
might
be
coming
to
get
multiple
locations
at
once,
so
that
third-party
independent
monitoring
allows
for
both
interior
and
exterior
surveillance
on
all
of
our
properties.
All
of
our
the
employees
who
work
there
also
have
panic
alarm
systems
that
they
can
utilize.
H
We
have
policies
where
you
don't
keep
more
than
a
small
amount
of
cash
overnight,
so
that
there
is
a
disincentive
to
try
to
arm
a
7-eleven.
Perhaps
you
could
steal
some
candy
bars
and
slurpees,
but
you're
not
going
to
get
a
large
amount
of
cash
because
it's
just
not
kept
overnight
there.
So
everything
that
we
have
to
develop
has
been
reviewed
by
your
staff.
H
And
in
addition
I
would
argue-
and
I
heard
somebody
say-
we
don't
want
there
to
be
a
slush
of
industrial
uses.
But
that's
exactly
what
you're
going
to
have
today
on
this
property
is
just
going
to
be
an
extension
of
more
industrial
uses
coming
closer
to
these
folks
houses.
So
you
know,
there's
things
like
a
commercial
gas
station
that
you
can
have
there
or
perhaps
an
asphalt,
crushing
facility
or
some
other
industrial
use.
H
That's
going
to
be
bringing
in
very
large
trucks
all
day
long,
whereas
we
do
not
have
that
many
trucks
that
come
in
for
refilling.
We
have
smaller
trucks
that
provide
any
of
the
types
of
fresh
food
replacements
for
our
stores.
Our
diesel
engines
stay
on
site
an
average
of
three
minutes
when
they
come
to
do
underground
refueling.
A
We'll
close,
the
public
hearing
bring
you
back
to
the
commission.
What's
your
pleasure.
J
J
There's
that's
speculation
at
this
point,
I'm
in
the
water
industry
and
and
understand
that
a
couple
things-
and
I
don't
know-
if
maybe
there's
a
misconception,
the
the
spilling
of
fuel
on
the
ground
is
completely
irrelevant
when
it
comes
to
groundwater,
any
kind
of
penetration
because
of
the
underlayment
that
they
put
at
gas
stations,
the
fuel
hits
the
ground
and
evaporates
so
that
one
or
two
gallons,
that
spilled
the
day
is
really
irrelevant.
J
The
traffic,
as
the
commissioner
spoke
with,
is
more
of
an
offshoot.
I
think,
of
the
development
further
behind
this
area
and
the
other
question
that
just
makes
the
question
to
me
is
that
you
know
this
development
here.
There's
a
gas
station
on
the
corner
that
isn't
up
to
the
standards
of
the
gas
station
would
be
here
as
far
as
the
underground
tanks.
As
far
as
the
water
retention.
J
As
far
as
I
know
that
gas
station
doesn't
have
any
water
retention,
I
may
be
incorrect,
but
I
went
and
looked
at
the
site
today,
so
it
kind
of
just
in
my
mind:
it's
like
okay.
Well,
we
don't
want
another
gas
station
here.
Okay!
Well,
that's
fine
on
that,
but
saying
that
the
gas
station
is,
it
makes
it
difficult
to
raise
your
children
you're
worried
about
the
lake
contamination.
Well,
you
know
when
you
move
there,
there
was
a
gas
station
in
that
corner.
A
J
Three
find
the
proposed
future
land
loose
amendment
consistent
with
a
comprehensive
brand
compatible
with
the
character.
The
surrounding
area
recommend
approval
to
change
a
future

use
designation
from
county
industrial
to

subject
to

Approval
and

recommends
approval.
If
you
have
any
questions,
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
them.
The
applicant
is
here
as
well.
A
A
C
A
F
I
know
that
we
find
the
proposed
change
of
zoning
consistent
with
the
comprehensive
plan
and
land
development
code
and
recommend
approval
of
the
proposed
change
of
zoning
from
t
transitional
district
to
il
light.
Industrial
district
to
c
see
cor

and
located
south
of

west
orange
blossom
trail
and
west
of

drive.
A
A
D
Applicant
is
proposing
us
a
large-scale
future
land
use
amendment
from
mixed
use
to
industrial
for
approximately
11.94
acres.
The
subject
properties
are
highlighted
in
yellow
and
located
north
of
hogshead
road
and
west
of
hermit
smith.
Road
to
the
north
is
a
railroad,
and
the
orange
blossom
trail
to
the
east
and
south
are
residential
properties
and
to
the
west
is
a
vacant
property
as
well
as
warehousing.
D
D
H
Good
evening,
tara
ted,
our
lounge
drastic
215
north
yola
drive
orlando
florida,
just
another
quick
presentation
showing
you
the
location
of
the
two
properties
that
are
proposed
for
the
rezoning
large
scale,
future
land
use
map
amendment
tonight.
This
gives
you
the
overview
of
where
our
properties
lie.
It
shows
you
some
of
that
existing
industrial
properties
and
there's
some
commercial
as
well
adjacent.
H
This
shows
the
current
site
conditions
on
the
entrance
to
the
building,
as
well
as
the
current
buildings
on
site.
My
client
has
plans
to
to
put
about
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
worth
of
upgrades
into
the
property
to
refurbish
the
buildings
and
be
able
to
upgrade
it
for
some
light
industrial
uses.
This
shows
you
the
adjacent
zoning
district,
so
we
are
in
a
pretty
heavy
light
industrial
area,
so
this
is
certainly
compatible
with
those
zoning
districts
as
they
exist
today.
So
our
request
is,
for
a
large
scale.
H
Future
land
use
map
amendment
for
mixed
use
to
industrial,
as
well
as
a
rezoning
to
light
industrial
and
your
light.
Industrial
district
purpose
is
to
provide
lands
that
accommodate
light
industrial
and
support
development.
So
there's
a
range
of
those
types
of
light
industrial
uses
that
are
allowed
has
been
determined
by
your
staff.
It's
compatible
with
the
surrounding
zoning
designations
will
provide
an
appropriate
transition
from
commercial
to
adjacent
industrial
and
the
site
upgrades
will
be
provided
as
part
of
our
redevelopment.
H
So
our
request
is
for
recommendation
for
approval
consistent
with
staff
and
drc's
findings
on
both
the
future
land
use,
map
amendment
and
rezoning
and
similar
to
last
time
I'll
do
both
of
the
presentations
at
once.
So
I
don't
have
to
come
back
up
again
and
take
up
more
of
your
time
but
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
A
B
Mr
chairman,
I
make
a
motion
to
find
a
proposed
large-scale
future
land
use
amendment
consistent
with
the
comprehensive
plan
incompatible
with
the
character
of
the
surrounding

and
recommend
approval
of
the
large-scale

A
A
Okay,
our
next
item
for
this
same
property
is
a
request
to
find
the
proposed
change
of
zoning
consistent
with
the
comprehensive
plan
and
land
development
code
and
to
recommend
approval
of
the
proposed
change
of

and
located
south
of

and
west
of

road,
and
we
have
a
staff.
D
Presentation,
this
is
a
proposed
rezoning
from
mixed
use.
East
shore
gateway
to
il
light
industrial
district
for
the
same
subject
properties
as
the
previous
agenda
item.
The
proposed
il
light.
Industrial
zoning
is
compatible
with
the
previously
proposed
industrial
future
land
use.
The
development
review
committee
recommends
approval
of
the
proposed
rezoning
from
mixed
use.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
and
we
will
include
your
comments
in
in
this
for
the
record
in
this
item
as
well:
okay,
we'll
close
the
presentations
and
open
the
public
hearing.
Anyone
wish
to
appear
before
the
commission
on
this
item
and
seeing
none
we'll
close
the
public
hearing
bring
it
back
to
the
commission.
What's
your
pleasure.
A
A
A
Okay.
Our
next
item
is
a
request
to
find
the
proposed
change
of
zoning
consistent
with
the
comprehensive
plan
and
land
development
code
and
to
recommend
approval
of
the
proposed
change
of
zoning
from
t
transition
district
to
rce
residential
country
estate,
for
the
property
owned
by
john
and
grace
johnson
and
located
at
1701,
hermit
smith.
Road.
And
we.
G
G
They
want
to
split
it
into
two
parcels
about
one
acre
in
size.
The
current
zoning
of
transitional
requires
a
minimum
of
two
and
a
half
acres,
so
under
that
zoning
they
can't
split
it.
The
drc
has
reviewed
this
and
the
staff
has
reviewed
it
as
well,
and
we
recommend
approval.
If
you
have
any
questions,
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
them.
The
applicant
is
here
as
well.
A
A
A
Okay,
our
next
item
is
a
quasi-judicial
item
and
it's
a
request
to
approve
a
special
exception
for
little
brownie
properties
to
allow
heavy
equipment,
retail
repair,
servicing
and
storage
and
the
light
industrial
il
zoning
district
at
1350,
sheila
avenue.
And
since
this
is
quasi-judicial,
I
would
ask
if
anyone
desires
to
be
recognized
as
an
affected
party.
C
A
And
I'll
ask
commission
members
if
anyone
has
had
ex
parte
communications
on
this
item?
Okay,
then
we'll
proceed
with
the
staff
presentation.
G
Thank
you
for
the
record
bobby
howell
planning
manager,
the
owner
of
the
property,
is
requesting
approval
of
a
special
exception
to
allow
heavy
equipment,
retail
repair,
servicing
and
storage
at
1350
sheila
avenue.
The
property
is
owned,
light
industrial
and
is
the
site
of
an
existing
industrial
development
known
as
little
brownie
properties.
G
The
applicant
is
requesting
a
special
exception
to

of
street
sweepers
trailers
and
equipment
in

with
section
2.51
g4
of
the
2019
land
development
code.
The
special
exception
request
is
required
to
be
in
compliance
with
all
13
standards
noted
in
the
code
staff
has
determined
that
it
is
the
proposed
use
is
appropriate
for
its
location
is
compatible
with
the
general
character
of
the
surrounding
lands
and
uses
permitted
in
the
il
zoning
district.
G
There
are
12
conditions
of
approval
that
the
site
will
be
required
to
be
developed
in
accordance
with
and
those
are
contained
within
your
staff
report.
The
planning
commission
has

If
you
have
any
questions,
staff
in
the
applicant
are
available.
G
No
sir,
it's
actually
going
to
be
in
the
building.
That's
outlined
in
the
black
circle.
It's
an
existing
building
on
the
site.
There's
just
going
to
be
a
tenant.
B
A
A
B
A
And
is
that,
subject
to
the
special
exception,
conditions
of
approval
and
findings
in
the
staff
report?
Yes,
okay.
I
have
a
motion
by
commissioner
washington.
Is
there
a
second
second
by
commissioner
lorendo?
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
any
discussion,
then
we'll
vote
all
in
favor,
say
aye
aye,
any
opposed,
say
no,
and
that
carries
unanimously.
G
Just
one
point
of
new
business
I'd
like
