CHAIRMAN MATTERS: MEMBER MATTERS: NONE NONE 5 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 15, 2003 DIRECTOR MA'I-rERS: Mr. Hass asked the board if they would rather cancel or change the date of the July 3rd meeting. The commission members agreed to move it to the following week, Thursday, July 10, 2003. ATTORNEY MATFERS: Mr. Stringer said he would try to get Mr. Bonacci to attend the next meeting regarding the sprinkler issue. He added a point of interest regarding CR 512. The city had requested the county to name this road Sebastian Boulevard from either the 510 intersection or 1-95 and the county rejected both requests. Once this annexation goes through it will be from 510, so we will have achieved at least that on our own. Chmn Smith adjourned the meeting at 8:11 p.m. (5/19/03 SBL)
