Each Commissioner, as requested by the Chairman, disclosed ex parte communications, site visits, or independent investigations. They also affirmed that they have an open mind and can base their decisions on the evidence presented and the applicable law. The Deputy Clerk administered the Oath to all persons who wished to speak at the hearing. Chairman Solari opened the Public Hearing. Bill Schutt, Chief, Long Range Planning, used a PowerPoint Presentation to provide the location of two (2) properties along 27th Avenue SW involved in the request to rezone from CN, Neighborhood Commercial District, to CL, Limited Commercial District. His detailed presentation included the purpose of rezoning the properties and the land uses that would be allowed if the request was approved by the Board. In addition, he highlighted the Other Corridors Special Development Regulations, the Existing and Adjacent Zoning, and the Criteria Analyzed, making mention that a detailed concurrency review would be done at the time of the project development plan review. Chief Schutt stated that there would be no adverse environmental impacts as a result of rezoning the two (2) properties, and that the Planning and Zoning Commission and County staff had recommended approval of the rezoning request. Page 9Indian River County Florida

November 5, 2019Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes 3 - Final Commissioner O'Bryan received confirmation from Chief Schutt regarding the possibility of a Dollar General retail store being built on one of the properties. The Commissioner then inquired and received clarification from Public Works Director Rich Szpyrka about the increase of traffic to the area. Jeremy Anderson, Common Oak Engineering, 1201 Louisiana Ave, Winter Park, the engineer of record for Hanlex Development, LLC, spoke on the Urban Service Area and the Concurrency Review. He mentioned that the proposed rezoning request was consistent with the Indian River County 2030 Comprehensive Plan and would bring the property into zoning compliance with the County's Land Development Regulations. Commissioner O'Bryan inquired about the property owned by Sogra Properties, LLC, and Mr. Anderson stated that he was unaware of any planned development. Michael Weaver, 2746 25th Street SW, provided several reasons for not supporting the rezoning request. Vance Houdyshell, 897 Indian Lane, a property owner involved in the request to rezone, commented that the request was a zoning correction, not a site plan review/approval. Community Development Director Roland DeBlois remarked that the properties involved in the request had been zoned for commercial use for many years, but had not been developed. He emphasized that the hearing was for rezoning, not for site plan approval. Lisa Doidge, 1716 Highland Drive SW, was not against the rezoning request, but she did not support an additional dollar store being built in the area. Joseph Paladin, President of Black Swan Consulting, spoke in support of the rezoning request. Peter Robinson, 315 Greytwig Road, supported the request to rezone the property. Mr. Weaver again addressed the Board regarding his concerns related to increased traffic and the impact of adding an additional dollar store to the neighborhood. Page 10Indian River County Florida

November 5, 2019Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes 3 - Final Mr. Anderson took an additional opportunity to address the Board and explain his expertise related to dollar stores and the communities they serve. He stated that Dollar General fits the Limited Commercial District zoning category. There being no additional speakers, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing. Commissioner O'Bryan discussed his concern regarding the traffic impact in the area, noting that the convenience of dollar stores could lead to additional traffic if people were visiting the store on a daily basis. He requested that the Public Works Department keep a close eye on the increased traffic and related accidents, and to add turn lanes if it becomes necessary. A motion was made by Vice Chairman Adams, seconded by Commissioner Zorc, to adopt Ordinance 2019-019, amending the zoning ordinance and the accompanying zoning map for approximately ±4.40 acres located north of south dike and ditch and east of 27th Avenue SW from CN, Neighborhood Commercial District, to CL, Limited Commercial District; and ±1.037 acres located west of 27th Avenue SW, east of 27th Drive SW, and approximately 315 feet north of 25th Street SW from CN, Neighborhood Commercial District, to CL, Limited Commercial District; and providing codification, severability, and effective date.

Director Burke clarified the process staff and CDM Smith had followed for accepting the project delay, and he reminded the Board of the inconsistent rain amounts throughout the County, and of the steep side slopes at the landfill. Managing Director Himanshu Mehta provided clarification that rain delays could be a result of the actual impact on site following rain in the area.
