A survey of three other airports was taken. Mr. Van Antwerp covered a brief history of the Sebastian Airport and its master plan. He explained that FAA does not have a problem with camping at the airport as long as it is an accessory use. He listed concerns to be addressed as: smoking, fire near airplanes - fueling, parked, etc.,- mixing of vehicles and operating alrcrait, pedestrian traffic and aircrait operating areas, security for the alrcrait that are parked on the ramp, security for other tenants and future tenants of the airport.

Mr. Brian Barry of 166 Abeto Terrace asked if it was really appropriate to have camping on airport property near expensive airplanes and their equipment. Mr. Robert Pliska suggested a security bond be posted by the owner (Mr. Orimwade) to cover any damage or thett problems. Mr. David RJgby spoke in defense of the Skydive group and their concern for safety in respect to airport activities, and how much this business adds to the Community in economic growth and charity activities. The subject of a security bond by only one airport user was discussed and found impractical. Rex Dirby, the pilot of the King Air.-.-.plane, expressed the need for the campground because of a lack of hotel/motei accommodations in the near area, and the large number of people attending the exhibitions. He referred to campers at Zephyrhills airport being security conscious for other airplanes on the premises.

(9) The insurance be reviewed and approved as to amounts to satis~ the City Attorney.) Mr. Van Antwerp discussed an airport layout plan which shows a proposed fence that goes around the entire airport, and the possibility of putting a time limit on Skydive Sebastian activities which would bring them up for review at a future time. PLANNING ZONING COlVlNflSSION REO,,,UL, MEET,, G OF,,rOLY 6. 1 PAGE SIX Mr. Williams suggested that any condition can be imposed in the approval, and that the City make sure it is covered under present liability coverage. Chmn. Thompson pointed out page 69 of the Land Development Code with a summary from 20A 2.6 A, B, C, D, E, F, & G for a special use permit as follows: 1) Determine it will not be detrimental to public health, safety or welfare. 2) Determine it will not be injurious to other properties or improvements within the immediate areas. 3) Determine that the use is consistent with the purpose and intent of the district and similar in nature and compatible with uses allowed in the dist/'ict.

SITE PLAN REVIEW - SANDR1DGE ESTATES APARTM]/;NTS Mr. Randy Mosby of Mosby and Associates, Inc. was present and representing the applicant, Mr. P. Jones, Architect. Mr. Mosby explained that the concept of the site plan is a master site plan of four buildings in phases. It was designed to give flexibility to the owner to come back before this Board in the future to plat each phase, and sell off each phase. Overlooked on the site plan was a side yard PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ~OULAR ~ETING OF ~ULY 6,, 1995 setback, which depends on the building height. We show the setback offif~een feet for a parcel that meets the City's height requirements. In one of the response letters to Masteller and Moler we indicated that the building height was 30' 8", which results in a 3' setback on the side lot to meet requirements on each of the parcels. The survey indicates flood zone "X". If there is a portion of site in the flood zone, we will adjust the site plan accordingly. Mr. Jones discussed the building and floor plans, including materials. Since the neighboring buildings are owned by the applicant, and bordered by a drainage easement to the south and a street to the north, he inquired as to whether a waiver could be issued in respect to the proximity of proposed buildings to neighboring residential buildings, since the i/tgher pitched roof and presently required setbacks conflict with the overall appearance of the project. Mr. Cooper suggested applying for a variance for this issue. Mr. Jones suggested shining the building if necessary. Mr. John King indicated he would rather shif~ the building than lower the pitch on the roof so that they can get started with building it. Mr. Cooper explained that technically, the proposed Phase four, which would be the comer lot; the side yard setback would then become a rear yard setback. There seems to be adequate room for adjustments on setbacks. There was no public input. Staff recommends approval subject to TRC subject and also to the west property line having a setback of 20', and that you are waiving the south property line landscape strip along the parking area.
