Approval of Meeting Minutes: October 13, 2021 — Motion to accept the minutes as written, made by Vice Chairman Mr. Price and seconded by Board Member Mr. Stroud. Vote on the motion carried unanimously. B. Cm rthensive Plan Amendments gislative — Public_Hearin s Ms. Surprenant gave an overview and background of some of the properties that are currently zoned Commercial (C-1), and the proposed rezoning to Residential (R-2). It was almost a year ago to the date from Phase I was presented, which included Conservation, and Public Planning & Zoning Meeting Minutes Page 2 and Recreation facilities. The overall project goal is to re -zone non -conforming properties along North Atlantic and along SR A1A in the southern part of the City to include several outliers that are vacant or unimproved within those areas. Most of these properties already have a residential structure on them but are zoned Commercial C-1. Ms. Surprenant went through a brief history of the City zoning maps and showed how we got where we are today. She shared a zoning map dating back to 1964 and although the colors will change from map to map, the N. Atlantic corridor has been commercial. The non -conforming properties are a result of past zoning maps that remained unchanged, and changes to the city code in 2016, when a special exception for residential was removed from uses in the C-1. The City had already started to develop through the years allowing residential in a commercial zoning district, thus the reason for the rezoning project. At last count, there are approximately 700 nonconforming properties in the City. Phase II, includes 7 specific properties: Ocean Gardens, Sea Spray Townhomes, Canaveral Woods Condominium, Portside Villas Condominium, Perlas Del Mar Condominium, Oak Lane, and a vacant outlier property located at 8810 N. Atlantic Ave. Two ordinances are proposed for each property, one to rezone the property and one to amend the Future Land Use Map. After discussion the following motions were made for each Ordinance: Ocean Gardens — Rezoning and Future Land Use Map Amendment A motion was made by Board Member Gentilquore and seconded by Vice Chairman Price to recommend approval of Ordinance 13-2021 to the City Council.

Vote on the motion carried unanimously. Oak Lane — Rezoning and Future Land Use Map Amendment Don Haynes was present to discuss the zoning changes with the Board. He is the owner of property located at 143 Oak Lane. Mr. Haynes explained to the Board that all the other properties have units placed on them. His property is vacant and he thought it was a gift when he was allowed to come into the Economic Opportunity Overlay District because it gave him the opportunity to go to 65 feet in height. If the rezoning is passed, it would take him down to 25 feet. He provided a site plan to the board with his proposed development concept. Discussion ensued and the main issue is compatibility. Staff communicated that if Mr. Haynes' zoning remained C-1, then he would not be able to build residential units. The EOOD only gives him the opportunity for increased height. A motion was made by Board Member Stroud and seconded by Vice Chairperson Price to recommend approval of Ordinance 23-2021 to the City Council. Vote on the motion carried unanimously.
