Adam Espley, Espley Wholesale Auto Sales, said he buys and sells vehicles on-line
nationwide and needs an office location to keep permits, bonds, insurance certificates, hold
training classes, and fingerprint; noting there would never be any vehicles on the premise.
The Community Development Director said this was a special exception request which is
required when there is a particular zoning use is not allowed in one location but another and
in 1999 Council removed the use from the commercial riverfront zoning classification.
Because the zoning definition has not changed since 1985 and Mr. Espley is required to
obtain a Florida dealer's license and, staff has determined that his business is a vehicular
sales business that needed to go through the special exception process.

to the site as well as the findings of fact required by the Land Development Code. She also

in the resolution.
