Map 3 - A revised staff reaommendation identifying the proposed
zoning changes in recognition of comments offered at,the P&Z
Board public hearing and the recommended action of the Board.
The Planning Director outlined the properties to be rezoned
and stated the area was mainly residential. There was a slide
presentation. ,The planning and zoning Board recommended more
commercial zoning on Myrtle AVenue than he felt was necessary
as Fort Harrison and Greenwood have sufficient commercial zoning.
Sam McClelland of the Property Appraiser's Office stated
there is no cause and effect relationship between a rezoning of
an area and an immediate reappraisal .by the County. Property
values depend on improvements made to the property and the
area. The market value approach is used in Florida and the
selling price is the basis for reappraisals.

in general with most favoring the recommendation of the.Plan-
ning and Zoning Board.

listed in the Public Hearing notice for June 1, 1978.
