Vice Chairperson Russell pointed out that any citizen could come to the Board and ask a question and that it was at the Board's discretion to listen to a citizen, not city staff.

Discussion & Recommendation Re: Amending Section 110 -334 Special Exceptions Permissible by the Board of Adjustment by Deleting Residential Construction in the C -1 Zoning District. The Board members reviewed and compared the city's existing zoning map along with an existing land use map prepared by city staff. Mr. Bapp advised that the city attorney prepared a proposed ordinance as per the Board's previous discussion to recommend deleting residential use by special exception in commercial zoning districts. Mr. Bapp depicted properties currently developed as residential in the existing C -1 zoning districts. He explained that the proposed ordinance would eliminate all future construction of residential in the C -1 zone. The Board members compared the two maps. Attorney Goldman advised that by changing -the ordinance, the city would be making the existing residential uses in C -1 non- conforming and if more than 50% of the property is destroyed, the property could not be re- developed as residential. Vice Chairperson Russell explained that previous to the zoning map being adopted, some property owners along A1A desired to develop their properties as residential. The city created the zoning districts using natural boundaries as a guide. It was the city's desire to develop the 1 st blocks along Al as commercial. Planning & Zoning Board Meeting Minutes May 13, 1998 Page 5 Mr. Russell continued to explain that residential use by special exception had been created for those property owners who wanted to build residential units in that area. Through the years, residential units have been developed in the C -1 zoning districts throughout the city. He questioned if the city wanted to continue to allow residential uses encroaching into the C -1 zoning district. The Board recently had this discussion and decided to eliminate residential by special exception in the C -1 zone. He advised that the city needed to protect the C -1 zoning districts otherwise the character of the city's main thoroughfares will be changed to residential: H e' noted that the residents residing in the commercial zoning districts were paying commercial tax rates. The Board members reviewed and discussed the existing areas developed as residential along N. Atlantic Avenue along with the different types of commercial existing r uses. After discussion, by consensus, it was the Board's desire to eliminate residential use by special exception. Mr. Nicholas pointed out that there were many residential special exceptions granted but never developed therefore, adding value to the properties for selling purposes. It was the Board's desire to develop the properties along the city's main thoroughfares as they were currently zoned. Motion by Mr. Russell, seconded by Mr. Bergen to recommend approval of the proposed ordinance to City Council to eliminate construction for residential use in the C -1 zoning district. Vote on the motion carried unanimously.

Chairperson McNeely suggested that the City should remove allowing special exceptions for residential use and if it created a problem for the property owner, the property owner should rezone the property to residential. The Board reviewed the existing land use map and determined that many properties could not be rezoned from C -1 to residential because many of the locations were surrounded by commercial and industrial zoning districts.

Atlantic Avenue (old state road 401) were residential. City Attorney Bennett read the definition of "special exception" and commented that a possible solution would be to amend the Future Land Use Map in the Comprehensive Plan to show residential and remove special exception out of the ordinance. Mr. Boucher suggested the city survey the property owners which may be affected by a proposed change. Motion by Chairperson McNeely, seconded by Mr. Bergen, not to have any further discussion regarding this agenda item. Vote on the motion carried unanimously.
