Motion by Mr. McMillin, seconded by Mr. Laws to approve Special Exception Request No.
97 -05 to allow outside storage as follows:
Findings of Fact: Randall May was the owner of the real property described in the
Petition. The property was located in the M -1 zoning classification and was subject
to the Land Development Regulations pertaining to said district. The granting of this
special exception request would not adversely affect the public interest. This special
exception was consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the
Comprehensive Plan; was consistent with the intent of the M -1 zoning district; this
request would not create any adverse impacts to adjacent property through the
creation of noise, light, vibration, traffic, utility requirements, or stormwater runoff
that would not have been created had the property been developed for a principal use
permitted in the M -1 zoning district; no unusual police, fire or emergency services
would be required; all the requirements of the zoning district were met with this
special exception.
Conclusion of Law: That the Board of Adjustments has lawful power and
authority to grant Special Exceptions under special conditions and circumstances as
set forth in Section 110-354, Paragraph (C)(1) of the Cape Canaveral Code of
Ordinances. The petitioner had met the minimum requirements for the requested
special exception and had demonstrated entitlement to the special exception which
would not adversely affect the public interest.
Order: Randall May was granted the requested special exception with no noted
limitations, restrictions or conditions. Said special exception will run concurrently with
the property identified in the petition. Should there be a violation to any part of this
Order, the Special Exception is subject to revocation according to the City Code.
Vote on the motion carried unanimously.
There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 8:20 P.M.
