in 6A.5., change "minimum" to "maximum"
in 6C.5., change "1991" to "1990"
Ms. Papandreas also gave clarification on the following:
Page 5
Sec. 6B.6.
Planned developments are preferred because traffic is kept on site. The idea
of the City "considering" to redllce fees for planned developments does not
means the City will be required reduce fees.
CP means "commercial property" and DD means "downtown development"
The City is required to show that any development will not further degrade
Levels of Service. The burden of proof will be with the property owner.

HOUSING ELEMENT
Mr. Pruitt explained in detail how the Housing Element was prepared. He explained how population projections
were accomplished, housing characteristics and conditions, affordable and adequate housing, vacancy rates and
how vacancy rates are affected by the seasonal population. He included explanations regarding how impact fees
are established and the effect on individual houses.
(

There was discussion regarding other states requiring that when expensive developments are constructed, lower
cost homes must also be built. Mr. Pruitt advised this practice is called "linkage" and he is not aware of any place
in Florida where "linkage" has been used.

The Board wanted to somehow eliminate the word "project" when used in conjunction with low-income housing
developments. The Board did not want the word "project" to connote a particular kind of low-income housing
but wanted the City's policy to be inclusive of other kinds of low-income housing, such as those that receive
vouchers.
The Board expressed concern about there being long waiting lists for low-income housing when such
developments have a very high vacancy rate due to need for home rehabilitation. Discussion followed regarding
the possibility of including a Policy that would encourage community groups, such as builder groups and/or
realtors, to participate in low-income housing developments, though groups should not be specifically named. Mr.
Hamilton commented the City Commission indicated strong feelings about doing anything with low-income
housing and impacting neighbors or changing zoning categories in certain areas. He added economically it is
difficult to upgrade homes in certain areas and that is one reason why houses are tom down and a change in
zoning is requested.
Ms. Nixon stated that on page 18 a portion of the Code of Ordinances is quoted and she would like to see an
ordinance passed to make that wording consistent with the wording in Policy 10.8.5. on page 35.
The Board decided to meet after the conclusion of the regular Planning and Zoning Board Meeting March 14,
1989, but to discuss elements of the Plan until about 5:00 PM. The Board then decided to schedule a workshop
on March 21, 1989, and if discussion is not complete at that time, the Board will then have another 'Workshop
on March 28,1989. Both workshops will be scheduled at 1:30 PM.
Workshop adjourned at 3:45 PM.
