and Modifications
1. Section 704.47.2 regarding minimum set back;
2. Section 715.5.2.1 regarding landscape buffers;
and Findings for Modifications (outlined in the staff report).
Ms. Clarke reviewed the staff report and referred to a map, noting that
a portion of the property being rezoned extends northward from the rest
of the property. This was added to insure that requirements in the
Comprehensive Plan regarding floor area ratios for commercial activities
are met. Staff was concerned that it appears to be an intrusion of
commercial zoning into a residential area. This area is being utilized
as open space, and she recommended it be rezoned out of the commercial
category at a future time.
JANUARY 26, 1995 (Cont'd)
Mark Barnebey, Assistant County Attorney, recommended adding
Stipulation:
5. Comments made at the Planning Commission public hearing are to be

Based upon the staff report, evidence presented and comments made at the
public hearing, the action of the Planning Commission, and finding the
request to be consistent with the Manatee County Comprehensive Plan and
the Manatee County Land Development Code, Mrs. Glass moved to adopt
Manatee County Zoning Ordinance No. PDC-94-07(Z)(P); approve the
Preliminary Site Plan with Stipulations 1-4, 5 (added by the County
Attorney); grant special approval for a project exceeding 30,000 sguare

Request: Preliminary Site Plan to allow 31 single—family detached
residences. 74 single-family semi-detached residences, and 168
multi-family units at a gross density of 4.64 du/acre and grant
Special Approval to a project located in the Coastal High Hazard
Area on 57.7 acres located on the south side of U.S. 301, 500 feet

Planning Commission recommended APPROVAL with 15 Stipulations;
RECORD S44-778
and Modifications:
1. Sections 603.7.4.7 and 603.7.4.8 regarding side yard building
setback and lot width;
and Findings for Modifications (outlined in the staff report).
Norm Luppino, Planning, Permitting and Inspections, reviewed the site
plan. He stated concerns staff had with the design of the project:
density in the Coastal High Hazard Area; compatibility; buffering;
height of the multi-family units given the proposed setbacks. He
recommended the multi-family development be reduced to three stories.
(Depart Mrs. Glass)
Mr. Luppino advised there was lengthy discussion at the Planning
Commission hearing (1/12/95) regarding secondary access into Highland
Shores via Willow Lane. He submitted modified language from the County
Attorney for Stipulation 2.
(Enter Mrs. Glass)
Discussion: Access; boulevard to be used as a secondary means of
access; street vacation.
Tom McCollum, representing the applicant, referred to a map to show the
character of the neighborhood. He requested in Stipulation 1,
multi-family development be limited to four stories and the number of
units be reduced to 140.
(Mrs. Hooper absent for a portion of discussion)
(Enter Mrs. Harris)
Steven Thompson, representing Highland Civic Association, submitted a
petition signed by 107 residents requesting denial of the request.
Irving Stewart; Sam Traserini; Al Bowman, President of Highland Shores
Civic Association; Roger Mashberger; and Virgil Mills (all residents of
Highland Shores) spoke against the request. Items discussed: flooding;
extension of Willow Lane; and neighborhood safety.
Mr. Thompson reported it does not appear that this site plan has met the
requirements of the LDC, specifically preservation of uplands; hurricane
evacuation; interneighborhood connection disrupting the Highland Shores
community; and an increase of traffic hazards.

JANUARY 26, 1995 (Cont'd)
Harvey Holton stated he was in favor of the request.
Al Wallace, Planning, Permitting and Inspections, reported that any
water runoff would flow into the wetlands and the Manatee River, and
would not increase flooding in Highland Shores.
In rebuttal, Mr. McCollum advised the applicant has proposed direct
access to U.S. 301, and has complied with the requirements of the
Comprehensive Plan and LDC relating to elevations, stormwater, and
evacuation plans at the appropriate time.
Based upon the staff report, evidence presented and comments made at the
public hearing, the action of the Planning Commission, and finding the
request not to be consistent with the Manatee County Comprehensive Plan
and the Manatee County Land Development Code, Mr. McClash move to deny
Preliminary Site Plan No. PDR-94-09(P). Motion was seconded by
Ms. Brown and carried unanimously.

150 MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL UNITS AND 70 ATTACHED SINGLE-FAMILY
UNITS; ON 49.91 ACRES AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF U.S. HIGHWAY 301

Planning Commission recommended ADOPTION with 13 Stipulations;
RECORD S44-779
and Modification
1. Section 907.9.4.2 regarding cul-de-sac length;
and Findings for Modification (outlined in the staff report).
Misty Servia, Planning, Permitting and Inspections, submitted a letter
from James D. Dye, representing the owners/developers, objecting to
Stipulation 9 requiring payment of a school impact fee when and if an
ordinance is adopted. A revised recommended motion and Stipulations 9
and 13 were also submitted. RECORD S44-780
Ms. Servia reviewed the staff report describing the location and the
surrounding areas. Staff had concerns regarding the proposal for
attached units in this area, which is developed primarily as single
family residences. Other concerns were the issue of compatibility as to
the introduction of multi-family units into the area; and density, which
is higher than any single family development on the south side of Old
Tampa Road. However, due to the location and project design in this
area, those concerns have been satisfactorily mitigated.
(Mrs. Harris entered during presentation; Depart Mrs. Glass)
Tom McCollum, representing the applicant, stated the request is
consistent and compatible with the Comprehensive Plan.
(Enter Mrs. Glass)
Speaking in opposition to the request were: Janet LaChance, Veranda
Springs resident and member of the Board of Directors of the Homeowners^
Civic Association; Marjorie Hile, Parrish Civic Association President;
Eileen Fortune, who submitted a letter from Audrey Keisacker; and Sandra
Engel. Issues of concern were: traffic; access from U.S. 301;
flooding; Phase III multi-family development; increased crime;
compatibility; etc.
David Fortune, Fox Chase Subdivision resident, stated he was opposed to
the project due to the density. He also stated he was of the opinion a
"sunshine law" violation occurred at the Planning Commission hearing,
and he filed an Affidavit with the Sheriff and a Complaint with the
State Attorney.
Mr. Barnebey stated he would look into the incident further, and advised
it would be appropriate to continue the public hearing.
JANUARY 26. 1995 (Cont'd)
Motion was made by Ms. Brown, seconded by Mr. Gause and carried
unanimously, to continue the public hearing on PDR-94-13(Z)(G) to
9:00 a.m., or as soon thereafter as same may be heard, on February 23,
1995.
