Mr. Dill said this application is to rezone the property from agricultural to a very low

Regular City Council Meeting

Page 11
The Community Development Director described the property's location and reaffirmed
that the request is consistent with and compatible with the existing uses in the area, with
the Cross Creek Lake Estates development, and the comp plan. She said staff
recommended approval.
Michael Roth, 474 Memorial Avenue, said the title mentions an intersection at Yearling
Trail and Shakespeare but there isn't access to an intersection at that location.
Mayor Hill noted there will be a site plan review to take a look at issues such as the
intersection.
Donna Greco, Yearling Trail, said when she bought her house she was told the land
would be a blueberry farm and it wasn't going to change. She also wanted to note there
is a lot of wildlife in that area. She said Yearling Trail and Shakespeare Street run
parallel and she is in opposition to moving the fence that's currently there because it's
not what they expected to happen.
She said she agreed with Ms. Sandos that the current property isn't being taken care of.
She asked H the new property would be taken care of or would it also have cracked
sidewalks and trees that need trimmed.
Steve Hitt, 498 Lanfair Avenue said he opposed the density classification of RS10; he
would prefer RE-40 at unit per acre.
Mayor Hill closed the public hearing at 7:09 p.m.
Mr. Dill said there is a property management company that is responsible for the routine
maintenance but Dr. Fischer does plan to get involved with the management company to
repair some of the sidewalks and sprucing up some of the trees since these concerns
were also brought up at the first reading.
In regard to the concern regarding the intersection, the Community Development
Director said one definition of an intersection is where two streets intersect but it is also
defined as where two points meet up which is where this reference in the ordinance title
comes from. _
She also explained that in RS10 zoning, the 10 indicates the minimum lot size is 10,000
feet. Under the VLD land use there could be up to three units per acre if there were no
other regulations needed for open space, roads, and drainage.
MOTION by Council Member Nunn and SECOND by Vice Mayor Jones to approve
Ordinance No. 0-21-24.
Council Member McPartlan asked if there was time frame for the maintenance
improvements. Mr. Dill responded that normally maintenance doesn't take long to do
and they expect to have these concerns taken care before they come back in with a
subdivision proposal in 60 days.
Council Member Dodd explained the subdivision is not maintained by City and if the
property owners have an issue with the property management company that is a civil
issue between the association and the property owner. He said there will be a lot of

things that will come up in the site plan such as the second exit, the emergency exit
which will impact how the site plan is viewed and that would be the time for the residents
to come in.

B. Council Member McPartlan
Council Member McPartlan said he received emails about the pickleball courts. He said
he was sure the Leisure Services Director had things under control but if the players
can't get along he suggested shutting the courts down for a week. He asked the players
to get along.
He also said a week ago Monday he assisted with the Treasure Coast Homeless
Services Council "Point in Time" count where he counted 17 homeless people in the
Sebastian area. He noted that not all homeless people are on drugs or drunks, some
people can become homeless just by missing one day of work. He said the fears
regarding Dignity Village are just fears. He said he has been in touch with the County
Administrator and Community Development Director who will be watching the Dignity
Village project very closely.
C. Council Member Nunn
Council Member Nunn read a communication sent to him from Jodi Shirley
complementing Sebastian Crossing Guard Tina loffredo who recently had children
waiting to cross the road running in place to slay warm during the recent cold spell. He
applauded Ms. loffredo for giving all of her heart in everything she does.
He said he's heard many rumors recently about Dignity Village, a planned small
affordable housing complex, so he decided to meet with Anthony, the Director of the
Source, to get some answers. The property is not in the City limits but sits just outside
of it. During the tour of the facility, Anthony said Dignity Village is not going to be a
homeless camp or transitional housing camp. The property is being cleaned up and new
appliances are being put in. The rent will be about $500-600 a month and there won't be
a requirement to leave in six months. Council Member Nunn asked everyone to have a
little more care in their hearts. He invited anyone who is interested in finding out what
this is really about to contact Anthony, he would be happy to give them a tour.
D. Council Member Dodd
Council Member Dodd kidded with the City Manager asking him to provide Council with
more exciting topics on the agenda.
E. Mayor Hill
Mayor Hill said the Hangar C construction was exciting and while the agenda items
weren't too exciting, they were legally required to get through.
In regard to pickleball, he asked the City Manager if there are rules that people aren't
following and the City Manager said no, that was not the case.
