Members absent:
Chairman Johnson
Vice Chairman Hogan outlined the procedures for conditional uses and advised
that anyone adversely affected by a decision of the Planning and Zoning Board,
with regard to conditional uses, has two weeks from this date in which to file

Request - Level I Group Care Facility
Zoned - RS-8 (Single-Family Residential "Eight")
Ms. Harvey advised as follows: the request for conditional use is for a Level
I Group Care Facility in the RS-8 (Single-Family Residential) zoning district;
the governing sections of the Land Development Code are Sections 136.025(b)
and (c)(14) and Section 136.020; the specific request is to increase capacity
from 6 persons, approved by the Planning and Zoning Board on March 18, 1986,
to 8 persons residing in the home; the requirements for 8 persons are 2,000
square feet in the home, 9,000 square feet in lot size, and a minimum of 3
parking spaces or 4 spaces if there are nonresident supervisors in the
facility; applicant is providing 2,080 square feet in the home, 7,800 square
feet in lot size, and 2 parking spaces; the Traffic Engineer had no objection
if appropriate parking is provided; and, a variance to the lot size was
reviewed and approved by the Development Code Adjustment Board on August 27,
1987. Ms. Karvey stated staff recommended denial of the above request due to
the parking situation. She advised the small lot size precludes adding more
parking spaces. She also advised that if the Board saw fit to allow the use
subject to providing sufficient parking or obtaining a variance to the
parking, it could do so. She further advised the Board could also deny the
request without prejudice to allow applicant to come before the Board if a
variance were approved by the Development Code Adjustment Board.

Ms. Harvey advised one letter of support was received from a nearby resident.
Ms. Harvey advised one letter of objection was received from a nearby

Ms. Diane Schwartz, applicant, appeared to request approval to serve 8 persons
at the above location. She advised she spoke with the Traffic Engineer to find
a p09sib1e solution to the parking. She felt the parking situation could be
worked out and stated it would be completed as aestheticly as possible. After
questioning by Ms. Nixon, Ms. Schwartz stated she currently has 4 bedrooms and
2 bathrooms but felt she should build 2 more bedrooms and 2 more bathrooms.
After questioning by Mr. Green, Ms. Schwartz stated she could build the
addition regardless of whether the above request was approved. She understood
her lot size was 1,200 square feet short of the requirement for 8 people but
she stated more indoor space is required rather than outside space and there
are rarely visitors to the facility. After further questioning by the Board,
Ms. Schwartz advised there is a nonresident manager and 24-hour staff; there
are currently 5 residents; the Traffic Engineer suggested a driveway
constructed of turf block in the center of 4 spaces; one half of the garage
has been converted to a bedroom and the remaining portion of the garage
contains a washer, dryer, freezer and refrigerator; and, the ages of the
residents range from 84 to 97 years who are provided meals, assistance to
doctors, and other needs that they cannot provide to themselves.
No persons appeared in support of or in opposition to the above request.
Mr. Schwob stated this appears to be a well-run facility but felt the parking
requirements should be met. He also stated he would consider voting favorably
on the request if the parking requirements were met. Mr. Hogan felt parking
should be compatible with the residential neighborhood. Mr. Schwob felt,
~ though it appears the parking will not be used, the Board should not approve
the request if parking requirements were not met or if parking was a detriment
to the neighborhood. Mr. Green advised he nas no objection to denial without
prejudice and after questioning by Mr. Green, Ms. Harvey advised the request
could be approved subject to the parking requirement being met or subject to
approval of a variance. She advised if the parking cannot be provided on the
front lawn a variance will be required. Ms. Nixon felt approving the request
subject to obtaining a variance would influence approval of the variance.
.
Ms. Harvey advised, if the request is denied without prejudice, the applicant
has the oppo~tunity to re-submit when the parking requirements are met rather
than waiting the required 9 months. Mr. Green stated he would like to see the
parking requirement be met without a variance. Ms. Harvey stated the request
could be continued until a parking plan, approved by the Traffic Engineer and
the Code Administrator, is submitted.
Motion was ~de by Mr. Schwob, seconded by Mr. Green, to continue the above
request until the Planning and Zoning meeting of September 29, 1987 in order
for applicant to provide a parking plan approved by the Traffic Engineer and
the Code Administrator. After questioning by Ms. Nixon, Ms. Harvey advised the
Code Adadnistrator should approve the parking plan in order to assure the open
space requirements have been met. Ms. Harvey advised that if a variance is
required the Planning staff will not recommend approval. Motion carried
unanimously (& to 0).
After questioning by Ms. Schwartz, Ms. Harvey advised the proposed plan needs
to be something that can be initialed by the Traffic Engineer and the Code
Administrator and copied and submitted to this Board for consideration.

Ms. Harvey advised as follows: The request is for a congregate care facility
in the Neighborhood Commercial zoning district located on Clearwater-Largo
Road; the governing sections of the Land Development Code are Sections
136.025(b) and (c)(lO) and Section 136.020; request is to establish congregate
care facility on a piece of property that is currently developed with a motel;
the use was actually approved by the former Board of Adjustment and Appeal on
May 9, 1985 under the prior zoning of Public/Semi-Public before adoption of
the Land Development Code; the applicant was not successful in securing all
proper permits and as a result of adoption of the Land Development Code it was
necessary the property be rezoned for the use to be established; the property
is to be utilized for 28 persons; there is sufficient acreage for 28 persons
on the property; available parking is in excess of parking requirements of 1
space per 2 persons and 1 space per 2 employees; and, the Traffic Engineer
commented the parking should meet current standards. Ms. Harvey advised that
staff recommended approval subject to the use permit being procured within one
year.
Hr. Hiles .Jeffrey Moore, representative of applicant, advised applicant has
been in the elderly care facility business for many years. After questioning
by Me. Nixon, Mr. Moore stated applicant had previously been involved with
Highland Terrace and Freedom Square; the current building will be torn down
and a new building constructed; there will be approximately 10 to 12
employees; the building will not be the same configuration since setbacks,
etc. must conform to current standards; and the trees will not be destroyed.
Ms. Harvey stated staff recommendation should be revised since existing
structures are to be removed- She advised staff recommended approval subject
to the use permit being procured in accordance with the condition for project
completion on Certified Site Plan.
No persons appeared in support of or in opposition to the above request.
After questioning by Mr. Schwob, Ms- Harvey advised the site plan will not be
presented to this Board. She stated the site plan will initially be reviewed
by the City Commission and then by staff. After questioning by Mr. Hogan,
Mr. Moore advised all existing structures will be removed with the possible
exception of the swimming pool.
.
Motion was made by Mr. Schwob, seconded by Ms. Nixon, to approved the above
request subject to the use permit being procured in accordance with the
condition for project completion on Certified Site Plan. Motion carried

Mr. DeMaio stated he personally witnessed high school students possibly using
drugs at the abandoned gas station. He stated he believes in free enterprise
and 7-Eleven has the right to do business.
Ms. Harvey advised one letter of support was submitted by William and Sallee
Wallace who are adjacent property owners. Mr. Ward felt it is significant that
no letters of opposition were received and no persons appeared in opposition
to 7-Elevcn's request.
After questioning by Mr. Hogan, Mr. Ward stated, though an appeal has been
filed from the Board's denial of a 2-APS license, there is no guarantee on
appeal. Mr. Ward stated sales of beer and wine are as important as the sale of
food and people do not want to go to more than one place.
Mr. Jack KcKeage, employee of 7-Eleven for 25 years, stated he is currently a
zone manager responsible for 137 stores across 5 counties- He advised sales of
beer and wine are 20% of the business. He advised that convenience stores
today must have many uses to make up for the tremendous cost of the property,
the building, utilities, etc. He stated that without beer and wines sales the
competitors have an advantage. He felt he could not lose 20% of the business.
Af ter questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr. Galbraith advised the Board it should
~ disregard any talk heard or anything read in the newspaper regarding future
. ":!1t amendments of the code- He advised the Board should use the Land Development
Code that is in effect at the present time and the same rules should be
applied as have been applied. Mr. Galbraith felt the 500 foot rule stated in
Chapter 72 was repealed or modified by adoption of the Land Development Code
and the City Commission gave this Board the authority to approve conditional
uses if the Board found there was a sufficient distance between the proposed
use and the surrounding uses without specifying any minimum distance.
Mr. Schwob stated that based on the Land Development Code it appears the
applicant meets the criteria.
.
Motion was made by Mr. Schwab, seconded by Ms. Nixon, to approve the above
request subject to the use permit being obtained within six months of approva1
of the conditional use. Mr. Hogan expressed concern regarding a conflict of
"sufficient distance" in the Land Development Code and the "500 foot rule" in
Chapter 72. Mr. Galbraith advised a hearing officer has used the 500 foot:
rule. He also advised that when he has a case before a hearing officer he
takes the position of "sufficient distance." He advised he does not agree with
the "500 foot rule" and felt if the City Commission intended that this Board
use the 500 foot rule it would not have told the Board to consider "sufficient
distance" when considering conditional uses. Mr. Green stated he does not feel
approving the subject request will be in conflict: with the request heard and
denied on August 4 because sufficient distance may not be considered the same
for two different licenses. After questioning by Ms- Ni.xon whether the Board
could reconsider its decision of August 4, Ms. Harvey advised that the Land
Development Code sets forth no rules for the Board to reconsider a request.
Motion for approval carried (4 to 1) with Mr. Hogan voting -nay.-

.
Ms. Harvey advised as follows: This request is for 2 conditional use requests,
one being on premise consumption of alcoholic beverages in the Commercial
General zoning district, and one being noncommercial parking in the Multiple
Family Residential zoning district; the specific state license being requested
is a 4-COP license; the governing sections of the Land Development Code are
Sections 136.025(b) and (c)(1) regarding the alcoholic beverage request and
Sections l36.025(b) and (c)(19) regarding the noncommercial parking request;
the Traffic Engineer commented he has concerns that the parking might be
inadequate; the parking to be provided is far in excess of Code requirements;
the Police Department saw no reason to deny license to applicant; the City
Commission is in process of review of a Preliminary Site Plan for the subject
property; certain items of information need to be placed on the site plan in
order to receive final review, those including conditional use approval of the
two subject requests; and, a tree survey and any tree removal will be required
to be in accordance with the site plan review requirements. Ms. Harvey advised
staff recommended approval of the request for on premise consumption of
alcoholic beverages subject to the following: 1) That the use permit be
obtained in accordance with time limitations for project completion placed on
the site plan. Ms. Harvey further advised staff also recommended approval of
the request for noncommercial parking subject to the following: 1) That the
building permit for the parking lot be obtained within 6 months of the date of
certification of the final site plan; and 2) That opaque fencing be provided
around the perimeter of the parking lot to provide proper separation to the

Hr. Don McFarland, representative of applicant, distributed a packet of
information to the Board regarding the subject request and similar operations
in other cities under the same management, which packet included a letter from
adjacent property owners Mr. and Mrs. Dorminy in support of the above request
(see attached). He stated the proposed use is an on premise consumption
recreational facility with only interior activities geared to a younger
middle-age clientele. He also stated management has adopted a minimum age rule
of 22 years of age and past experience has resulted in a minimum age of 24 to
25 years of age. He stated that included in the packet were photographs of
similar operations and two letters from nearby residents attesting that the
operations were well run (see attached). He also stated that included in the
packet were the 3 most recent reviews by the County Health Department which
indicate the excellent condition of one of the similar operations (see
attached). Mr. McFarland distributed photographs of the subject property which
showed adjacent uses (copies of photographs attached). He advised the subject
application is for approximately one half of the depth of the property and the
rear portion is not a subject of the application. He also advised the property
fronts on Gulf to Bay Boulevard with appro){imately 200 foot frontage. He
further advised there is a 34 foot easement eKtending the full depth of the
west side of the property that will act as a buffer to adjacent neighbors. He
advised that the area on the east side of the property is intended to be on-
site retention for the project and adjacent uses from Gulf to Bay to the north
are a small strip shopping center, an office type facility, some modest
residences, and a series of duplexes. Mr- McFarland felt the area is in a
state of change.
~ Mr. McFarland stated the Code requires an alcoholic beverage use be on what he
felt is a major road. He felt, though the area is currently a problem area
with regard to traffic, the widening of S.R. 60 to 6 lanes will eliminate
problems now seen in this area. Mr. McFarland stated valet parking will be
provided but no fee will be charged to customers. He also stated the Code
requires 90 parking spaces but 190 spaces will be provided. He felt the use of
valet parking would actually allow more cars to be parked than the 190 spaces
provided.
j'
After questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr. McFarland advised the operation would
primarily be a nightclub with occasional live entertainment. After questioning
by Mr. Bogan, Mr. McFarland advised there would be no speaker or paging system
outside. He also advised low-level lighting would be used for the parking
area. He further advised the applicant is currently in the process of platting
the property.
The following persons appeared in opposition to the above request to give
their comments:
.
Kr. Hlchae1 Sarris, 380 El~zabeth Avenue, felt this type of operation attracts
a bad crowd. He expressed concern about possible bad drainage from the subject
property to his property. He felt the property value of his home would be
lOl.lered and the enjoyment and use of his property would be in jeopardy. He
advised there are presently 6 bars within a 2-b1ock area of his home and he
felt another bar was not necessary. He stated though many of his neighbors are
also in opposition they were unable to leave work to appear. He exp ressed
concern regarding the additional traffic to the area. After questioning by Mr.
Hogan, Kr. Sarris stated he owns property to the east of the subject property

and his property is within 200 feet of the proposed licensed business. After
questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr. Sarris stated he is specifically opposed to the
subject request because of noise. He also stated his children cannot sleep on
weekends because of noise and felt if there is another such business it would
make his life most difficult. He advised Mr. Schwob the 2 side streets have
become a problem area because of cars travelling these streets all hours of
the night. After further questioning by Mr. Hogan, Mr. Sarris stated if calls
are made to the Police a lot of time is spent by the City and County deciding
who should respond to the call since the area is part in the City and part in
the County. Mr. Sarris further advised his property is in the City.

'."1'..,
Ms. Renee Johnson, owner of a rental house and a duplex in tbe area, advised
the notice of hearing received indicated the subject request was located at
2300 Gulf to Bay which is near Wendy's to the west. She expressed concern
regarding the type of proposed retention and the separation between the
proposed business and her rental property and duplex. She felt this is not a
proper business to be backed up to a residential area. Mr. Hogan advised her
the Board's responsibility is to consider the sale of alcoholic beverages not
site plans or retention areas. Ms- Johnson felt if the alcoholic beverage
license was approved, site plan approval would be elementary. Ms. Harvey
stated site plans are regulated by a another set of rules and the City
Comudssion has reviewing authority over site plans. She also stated the City
Commission may require changes that may not be seen by this Board. After
questioning by Ms. Johnson, Ms. Harvey stated there is a general idea of the
parking lot which is an issue that is primary to determinations of this Board
for alcoholic beverage sales. She advised the retention area is determined by
geography of the land and requirements of the Public Works Department and must
be designed in accordance with City and State regulations. She also advised
that presently this Board or staff cannot assure what the retention area will
look like. Ms. Harvey stated information concerning the retention area may be
obtained from the Engineering Department who is in the process of reviewing
the site plan.
.
Mr. Alan Stowell, property owner illlllediately across the street from the
subject property, stated he is not opposing the 4-COP license which, as he
understands, allows alcoholic beverage sales and does not require 51% food
sales. He stated this would be more of a "drinking establishment." He
expressed concern regarding noise and if parking requirements are adequate. He
stated there have been numerous accidents in the area and the area is a
bottleneck from Hampton Road to McMullen Booth Road. He also stated the
proposed cons truction of S. R. 60 is not to be until 1989 according to the
State. He further stated he is not opposed to the subject application but
suggested the applicant consider constructing a de-acceleration lane to help
customers enter the property. He advised Mr. Keith Crawford the City Traffic
Engineer felt it would be good idea to have the same number of parking spaces
as the occupancy limit determined by the Fire Department. He expressed concern
that if there is not enough parking, customers will park where they are able
to find space. Mr. McFarland advised Mr. Stowell the site plan indicates 190
spaces are proposed but with valet parking 250 vehicles should be able to be
on the parking lot. Mr. Stowell expressed concern that customers will park on
his lot across the street and increase his liability.

In rebuttal, Mr. McFarland stated this property will be drained in accordance
with Public Works requirements and felt the drainage will be an advantage to
Mr. Sarris' and other residents' properties- He assured the retention area
will not be materially different than what is shown on the current site plan-
He stated he is aware of other establishments in the area and assured that a
different type of establishment is planned. He advised the applicant has no
intention of any outside activity. He also advised the establishment is not
proposed to be a si t-down bar but will be a place where people can be
entertained. He further advised this establishment will not be a daytime
operation and will not have access to side streets. He assured that applicant
will be concerned about parking, drainage, and traffic- He stated the subject
project will be required to be reviewed by City staff. He also stated the
request being made today is a request for conditional use for alcoholic
beverage sales subject to any restrictions required by this Board.
After questioning by Mr. Hogan, Mr. McFarland advised any customer who wants
valet parking can have valet parking. Mter questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr.
McFarland felt the traffic pattern on the site plan will be adequate for the
traffic generated by subject property-
,.t~i~'
After ques tioning by Ms. Nixon, Mr. McFarland advised he does not know the
correct address of the subject location. He advised the application indicated
the address as the "2300 block" and should have indicated the address as the
.. 2800 block." After further questioning by Ms. Nixon, Ms - Harvey stated the
legal description of the subject property is required in terms of legality.
Afte'l' questioning by Mr. Schwob, Ms. Harvey stated she is unaware of any
interpretation that valet parking is considered commercial parking. She
advised commercial parking has typically been where one enters a lot and pays
a fee to park there for a time and not a lot where one pulls in and pays
someone to park a car.
After further questioning by Mr. Schwob, Ms. Harvey felt one reason so many
establishments were opening in this area was because of the availability of
property and what appears to be a use that justifies the expense of purchasing
or leasing a property in this area. She stated establishments selling
alcoholic beverages usually have a good return. She also stated these
properties are prime for redevelopment and when a property is ready to be
redeveloped one can anticipate a new use. She advised the market will
determine a saturation point and all the businesses will not survive.
Mr. McFarland stated applicant anticipates clientele to be unique, upscale,
quality type people. He further stated the other establishments in the area
are not consldered competitors by applicant because of the different type of
market applicant is hoping to attract. Ms. Nixon expressed concern that with
all the surrounding residential uses this may be a case where sufficient
distance is important. Mr. Schwob stated he had been concerned about a
saturation of establishments in the area but felt his concerns were adequately
answered and agreed that the market will determine saturation. Ms. Nixon felt
the concern was more of insufficient distance rather than saturation. He
stated his concerns regarding parking, noise, and proper buffering were
answered and his only concern was ingress/egress of traffic onto Gulf to Bay
Boalevard. He felt satisfied that applicant has met the standards as required.

~~,,~"<
Ms. Harvey advised as follows: the request for conditional use is for on
premise consumption of alcoholic beverages in the General Commercial zoned
area of a project that actually covers General Commercial zoning on Gulf to
Bay and Single-Family Residential zoning to the rear; the state license
actually being applied for is a 2-COP; the governing sections' of the Land
Development Code are Sections 136.025(b) and (c)(l); Traffic Engineer
expressed concern regarding parking if the subject request is to be a
nightclub operation; the Police Department saw no reason to recommend denial;
this particular property is being reviewed by the City Commission as a
Preliminary Site Plan; a Unity of Title will also be required to be filed over
this property; and, there will be no parking on any part of the development
actually on the portion of the property zoned RS-8. Ms. Harvey advised staff
recommended approval of the request subject to: 1) That the use permit be
obtained in accordance with time limitations for project completion placed on
the site plan; and 2) That opaque fencing be provided around the perimeter of
the parking lot to provide proper separation to the adjacent residential area.
Ms. Harvey advised that one letter was received from an area resident
objecting to the subject conditional use request and the conditional use
request immediately preceding the subject conditional use request.
.
lfr. Wil1i8Dl Tennyson, representative of the property owners, stated that
making a presentation with many of the considerations stated by the applicant
for the previous request would only be redundant and that the major
consideration to be presented to the Board is the concept of the proposed
project. He distributed photographs of the property showing adjacent areas
(copies of photographs attached). Mr. Tennyson stated a casual type atmosphere
is intended with sit-down dining and a small bar. He also stated the business
will be approximately 3,600 square feet and 71 parking spaces are proposed.
After questioning by Mr. Hogan, Mr. Tennyson stated a casual type atmosphere
is planned and light meals that compliment beer and wine will be served. After
questioning by Mr. Schw()b, Mr. Tennyson stated music from records or tapes
will be used, there will be no bands on premises, and there will be no dance
floor. After further questioning by Mr. Hogan, Mr. Tennyson stated olJtside
speakers are proposed for afternoon activities. He advised a swimadng pool is
proposed for the business. After questioning by Mr. Green, Mr. Tennyson
advised there is currently no swimming pool on site and the property is the
existing Starlight Motel. Mr. Tennyson stated the adjacent property owner does
not object to the proposed operation. Mr. Tennyson explained the site plan and
pointed out the parking, retention, ingress/egress, etc. He stated the dining,

kitchen~ bar areas will be around the pool which will create a buffer to
residential properties. He also stated 3 retail spaces are proposed with uses
complimentary to the activity around the pool but would be under separate
lease agreements. He further advised a portion of the building is to be
demolished to accommodate new construction. He advised activity around the
swimming pool will be during the daytime with proposed closing tim.e of the
pool at about 10:00 PM and loud speaker would be used for events related to
the pool area.
After questioning by Mr. Hogan, Mr. Tennyson advised the pool is proposed more
for the effect of a tropical atmosphere and the activity would mostly be
around the pool not in the pool- He also advised there would be seating around
the pool. After questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr. Tennyson stated he felt there
would be no interaction between the subject establishment and the operation
that was approved previously. Mr. Tennyson felt the subject establishment will
be more casual.
After questioning by Mr. Green, Mr. Tennyson stated there will be 71 parking
spaces with 69 required and separate parking requirements must be met for the
retail operations.

After questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr. Tennyson advised the subject project is a
"first-time" project but one of the investors has substantial restaurant
experience. After further questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr. Tennyson advised the
proposed hours of operation are from 11:00 AM to midnight during the week and
from 11:00 AM to 1:00 AM during the weekend but activity around the pool will
cease at approximately 10:00 PM. After further questioning by Mr. Schwob~
Mr. Tennyson advised there would be no objection if a condition of approval
would be to cease activity around the pool at 10: 00 PM but requested the
ability to use the area as a waiting area for persons waiting for tables in
the dining room or at the bar. He further advised that any speakers used would
be on a separate volume control. After questioning by Mr. Green, Mr. Tennyson
stated there are no plans for a dance floor.
Ms. Harvey explained that when the CG (General Commercial) zoning was placed
along Gulf-to-Bay it was done mostly at a standard width and was placed
without regard to ownership or property lines. She further advised there are
several locations along Gulf-to-Bay where single ownership of a property is
split by zoning lines.
No persons appeared in support of or in opposition to the above request.
Mr. Schwob stated it appears the proposed project meets the criteria of the
Land Development Code.

Motton was made by Mr. Schwob, seconded by Mr. Green~ to approve the above
request subject to the following: 1) That the use permit be obtained in
accordance with time limitations for project completion placed on the site
plan; and, 2) That opaque fencing be provided around the perimeter of the
parking lot to provide proper separation to the adjacent residential area.
Mr. Hogan stated he would like to see a condition limiting hours of outside
speaker use. Ms. Harvey stated the City is able to enforce excessive noise but
the Board must understand that it is not possible to have City personnel at
the location every night to see that the speakers are turned off at 10:00 PM.
She also stated this type of condition is enforceable mostly be complaint.

Ms. Harvey advised as follows: this request is for a child day care center in
the Commercial Center zoning district, specifically located in the Village at
Countryside Shopping Center; the governing sections of the Land Development
Code are Sections 136.025(b) and (c)(8); applicant is proposing to use one of
the e:dsting units as a child day care center; the section of the Code
pertaining to child day care requires the Board make a determination that
there is sufficient outdoor play area on site and appropriate loading and
unloading; the Traffic Engineer had no objection in terms of loading and
unloading and parking regarding the use; and, applicant proposes to utilize
space behind the building that is currently now in use as a sidewalk and
landscaping area. Ms. Harvey advised the Board she is unable to make a
recommendation until discussion with applicant regarding the number of
children proposed to be at facili ty and how the space to be fenced in is
actually proposed to be used. She stated a child day care facility in a
shopping center is a reasonable request and further stated her only concern is
that there may not be sufficient play area behind the storefront to
accommodate the children.
Ms. Amie Brumley, applicant, advised the proposed center meets with all State
and County requirements for day care centers. She stated the hours of
operation will be from 6:30 AM until 10:00 PM and on Friday and Saturday until
1:00 AM and advised the need for such care is growing. She stated the square
footage requirement for the day care is 25 usable square feet per child and~
with the 1300 usable square feet of space, a maximum of 50 children would be
allowed. She also stated that 50 children would not be in the center at one
time and the children would not be in the center during a set time. She
advised the outside square footage is approximately noo square feet and 1
child is allowed for every 90 square feet. She stated County requirements
allow for 8 children in the outdoor area at one time and the children must be
supervised at all times. She also stated inside activities are planned for the
children in such a way that no more than the maximum of 8 children will be
outside at anyone time. She further stated both the State and County felt the
space was adequate aa long as there were adequate activities for the children.

Residential/Office. Motion carried unanimously (5 to 0).
(I) To consider a request for amendment to the
Master Site Plan known as Bryn Mawr at
Countryside (Revision to Phase 5 only)
in the RPD-12 (Residential Planned Development)
Zoning District as required by Sec. 135.076 of
the Code of Ordinances of the City of Clearwater
for the following described property:
.
Bryn Mawr at Countryside,
Phase 1, Plat Bk. 46, Pg. 40,
Phase 2, Plat Bk. 53, Pg. 113,
Bryn Mawr at Countryside II,
Phase 1, Plat Bk. 74, Pg. 119-122,
Phase 2, Plat Bk. 90, Pg. 62 and

(Located on the northeast corner at the
intersection of S.R. 580 and
Countryside Boulevard (Phase 5 located on
Bryn Mawr Circle)
(Federal Deposit Insurance Co.)
Tne above property is located on the northeast corner at the intersection of
S.R. 580 and Coantryside Boulevard (Phase 5 located on Bryn Mawr Circle).
Mr. Carl Git.ore, representative of owner, stated this is the last phase of an
almost built-out condominium development. He stated the previously approved
site plan indicates the subject phase is to contain 60 units in two 3-story
buildings while the remainder of the development is single story use. He also
stated the present plan is to modify the subject phase from 60 units in the
two 3-story buildings to 30 units in single story buildings. After questioning
by Mr. Hogan, Mr. Gilmore advised the contract stated 60 units to be built
because the contract was written at the time 60 units were approved to be
built.
.'
Mr. Pruitt advised the site plan was approved as an RPD-12 in 1980 and the
project was appToved for 172 units at that time. He stated the 172 units are
to be reduced to 142 units. He further stated the site plan was approved by
the Development Review Committee subject to several conditions. Mr. Pruitt
stated staff recommended approval subject to the following conditions: 1) That
the Land Use Plan Classification on the site plan should be properly noted as
Medium Density Besidential; 2) That the calculations should be provided to the
Public Works Department to indicate that the retention for Phase 5 is
adequate; and 3) That the requisite initial building permi t for Phase 5 be
issued within 6 months of the date of certification of the revised Master Site
Plan and all certificates of occupancy be issued within 3 years from date of
certification of the final revised master site plan.

After questioning by Mr. Schwob, Mr. Gilmore advised there are changes planned
in the type of construction because there is a new architect but the new
construction will not be out of character to existing construction and will be
attractive and of the same grade and quality as the existing building. Mr.
Gilmore also advised one reason for the reduction in units is that applicant
felt the new units will sell better if they compliment the existing units.
Motion was made by Mr. Schwob, seconded by Ms. Nixon, to recommend approval of
the amendment to the Master Site Plan known as Bryn Mawr at Countryside
(Revision to Phase 5 only) with the following conditions: 1) That the Land Use
Plan Classification on the site plan should be properly noted as Medium
Density Residential; 2) That the calculations should be provided to the Public
Works Department to indicate that the retention for Phase 5 is adequate; and
3) That the requisite initial building permit for Phase 5 be issued within 6
months of the date of certification of the revised Master Site Plan and all
certificates of occupancy be issued within 3 years from date of certification
of the final revised master site plan. Motion carried unanimously (5 to 0).
(P) ~ppllcat:ioD for Land Development: Code Amenduent:
1.
Section 135.157, Chapter 135
.~O:t"
"";.'!><J'
",.
Use limitations to require screening of
outdoor electrical facilities and
outdoor storage for Public Works
facilities within the Public/Semi-Public
zoning district and to amend a cross
reference relating to alcoholic beverage
sales.
Mr. Pruitt stated that the City's gas facilities maintenance area was the
subject of a variance request because a 6-foot fence for use as screening was
required but the Code allowed only for a 4-foot fence. He further advised that
the need for such screening around outdoor storage of equipment and fuels,
public works facilities and electrical facilities is determined by the
Development Review Committee through site plan review. He also advised this
amendment proposes to make screening mandatory for such uses.
Mr. Pruitt advised there is a reference to alcoholic beverage sales under
paragraph (f) that states alcoholic beverage sales "shall comply with Chapter
72" and should read "shall comply with Chapter 72 and Chapter 136."
.
Ms. Harvey advised staff thought this ordinance would be finalized after the
alcoholic beverages ordinance was in effect. She also advised that when a
section of the Code is to be amended the City Attorney's office will make any
necessary editorial changes to the section being amended- She advised the
major change in this ordinance is the requirement of the screening. She stated
that consideration for alcoholic bevetage sales is a conditional use in the
Public/Semi-Public zoning district and this is the section of the code listing
conditional uses and those kinds of requirements that go with conditional uses
under the Public/Semi-Public zoning district. Since staff is not sure if or
when the proposed alcoholic beverage ordinance will be approved, Ms. Harvey
suggested the reference to Chapter 13& remain until such time as an alcoholic
beverage ordinance is approved.

September 1, 1987
TO: The Mayor and City Commissioners of the City of Clearwater
FROM: The Planning and Zoning Board
Taking into consideration the high incidence of alcohol related
automobile accidents and fatalities, the difficulties our Police
Department has in enforcing drunk driving laws and the sale of
alcoholic beverages to minors and as an aid to the "Don't Drink
And Drive" Campaigns, we the Planning and Zoning Board of the
City of Clearwater would like to suggest that your Body consider
some way to reduce the number of businesses purveying both alcoh-
olic beverages and gasoline and/or other motor fuels. These types
of businesses are steadily increasing within our City, especially,
with the advent of convenience stores purveying both alcoholic
beverages and gasoline; and this increase will continue if some
changes are not made in the issuance of the conditional use permits.
Pursuant to this situation, we would like to submit for your
~ consideration the adoption of the following as an ordinance:
Conditional use permits for the sale of alcoholic beverages will
not be granted to any business engaged in the sale of gasoline
and/or other motor fuels. Existing alcoholic beverage permits
involving this type of business that are in effect at the time of
adoption of this ordinance may continue until such time that the
ownership, operator, lessee or franchisee of the business changes.
The conditional use permit will not be transferable nor will it
be granted to the new owner, operator, lessee or franchisee.
The Board would. further, suggest that if the Commission should
choose to consider the adoption of the above ordinance or a
simliar one; a moratorium be declar~ on the acceptance of applic-
ations for the above mentioned conditional use permits until such
time that the ordinance is adopted or rejected.
