On a motion by Commr. Middleton, seconded by Commr.

Mrs. Hepner stated that while zoned “A”, the land is unsuited for growing anything; and, therefore, unsuitable as presently zoned.
Mr. Willett stated the request to “R-1-5” would not be in conformance with the Urban Containment Policy of the Comprehensive Plan in that it is requesting high density zoning in an area designated Agriculture. Discussion continued.
Commr. Middleton moved to overturn the Planning Commission’s recommendation for denial and rezone the land to R-1-5; Commr. Burhans seconded the motion. Discussion continued. The question was called for with Commrs. Deems, Carson, and Windram voting “No”; the motion did not carry.
Discussion continued regarding the possibility of rezoning to “RR”, which Mr. Willett pointed out would still be “spot zoning”. The possibility of the Hepner’s acquiring an additional 3.15 acres was discussed in that the Board has, in the past considered a 10-acre parcel large enough not to be considered a spot zone.
The County Attorney advised that some type of action to be taken in this case, rather than having the prior motion dying.
On a motion by Commr. Deems, seconded by Commr. Windram and carried unanimously, the Planning Commission’s recommendation for denial was reluctantly upheld and the rezoning denied. Mr. and Mrs. Hepner were advised to discuss further with Mr. Willett what could be done with their land.

Mr. Deen suggested Mr. Jerry Sexton, of the Lake County Planning Department, brief the Board first on their findings, at the end of which he would be happy to answer any questions or fill in any blanks. Discussions occurred.
At this time Commr. Carson asked to hear from those in favor of the Planning Commission’s recommendation for denial of the CUP.
Mr. Robert Tuller spoke on behalf of the Lake County Conservation Council and praised the Planning Department for the extensive preparation and research they have done in evaluating the impact of this type development at the proposed site. Speaking for the Council he stated the proposed plan is not suitable, nor would it conform with the Land Use Elements of the Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Jim Simpson, a property owner on Loch Leven, briefly discussed with the Board his feelings that this was the wrong place for such a development.
Mr. Newell Cook, a property owner on Lake Joanna, stated he represented people from Lake Joanna and Loch Leven who were opposed to the granting of this CUP. Mr. Cook stated he had a Petition containing 48 names opposing approval of this development. The petition was not presented to the Board at this time.
Mr. Jeff Ray, a resident of Mount Dora as well as President of the City Council, pointed out the quiet residential-like atmosphere of the community and stated the scope of this planned development would only prove detrimental to the area.
Mr. David Hanner, President of Dawn Investment Corp., and adjacent property owner of 53 acres, appeared before the Board and expressed the desire that any action taken would not jeopardize his existing CUP.
Mr. Russell Creighton, resident of Dora Pines, asked what type of sewer plant plan existed. Mr. Willett replied that there were no definite plans regarding that phase of the development yet.
At this time Mr. Deen, the Architect, spoke and expressed concern that the Board and public seemed so leery regarding the next stages of his proposal. He requested he be allowed to proceed to the next step in drafting more detailed specifications to be presented to the Board.
Mr. Willett stated that since the Planning Commission’s meeting he had received a lot of local input regarding the fears of the people etc. He then proceeded to present an alternate plan to the Board. Discussion continued.
Ms. Bea Griffin, owner and operator of the Eustis Airport, appeared before the Board and stated she would have no objection to the issuance of the CUP.
Mr. Howard Simpson, property owner around Loch Leven, approached the Board stating the land would not be able to take cluster housing, nor was the lake suitable for the anticipated population increase.
At this time Mr. Deen again spoke requesting additional time to study Mr. Willett’s proposal, stating this was the first time he had had an opportunity to hear it.
Mrs. Anita Simpson, property owner on Loch Leven, requested the Board deny the request for the CUP once and for all rather than having those concerned keep coming back and listening to every proposed change in an attempt to get approval.
Discussion continued in which the feeling of the Board was that a decision had to be reached which would be agreeable with the majority of the people. All agreed the land should be used in the most compatible manner possible. The Board agreed they did not wish to be continually rehearing proposals and suggested a more lengthy postponement to allow Mr. Bradley one final try at presenting specifications compatible with the site under consideration.
On a motion by Commr.Windram, seconded by Commr. Middleton and carried unanimously, the case was postponed six (6) months to June 12, 1979, 2:00 P.M. or as soon thereafter as possible, after which time it will have been heard by the Planning & Zoning Commission, and had local public hearings if necessary.

POSTPONED ZONING VIOLATION ZV-78-132 – Mr. Thomas Harrison
Mr. Willett and Mr. Ford briefed the Board on the status of the zoning violation cited against Mr. Harrison. Discussion occurred.
Based upon the opinion of the County Attorney that an injunction trial would be costly and perhaps prove to be a failure in the attempt to have Mr. Harrison’s house removed, along with the fact that Mr. Harrison, at the prior hearing, swore to the Board he had obtained the necessary building permits for this house, Commr. Deems moved that the man be allowed to put the last few finishing touches on his house and have it completed. This motion was seconded by Commr. Middleton and carried unanimously.
