The Chairman explained that the purpose of the meeting was to consider Mr. A. L. Outlaw's request to construct, under the PUD Ordinance, an office building, a storage/maintenance building, and a pet cemetery, with the latter being contiguous to the existing cemetery at Main Street and Levy Road. Chairman Andresen called upon the applicant to present details concerning the office building. The latter described the structure in some detail and answered several questions about the purpose and architecture of the building. The Board next considered the storage/maintance building. Mr. Outlaw pointed out the location of the building on the plans and stated that it would be towards the rear of the property and that it would not detract from the surrounding area. Several Board members asked questions which Mr. Outlaw answered to their satisfaction. The pet cemetery was the next order of business and again Mr. Outlaw pointed out the location on the plans and added that the cemetery would comprise a small animal cemetery and a large animal cemetery. Commissioner Van Ness asked Mr. Outlaw if there were any statutory requirements which would affect the location of the pet cemetery inasmuch as it was contiguous to the large existing cemetery. Mr. Outlaw explained that he had had his attorney research the matter and that the Florida Statutes did not contain any provision for pet cemeteries. After a brief discussion of the three facilities, the question of a trailer which is to be utilized for a security guard was brought up. Board members agreed with Mr. Outlaw that the trailer was a necessary adjunct to the other facilities. In this connection, Mr. Outlaw pointed out that the trailer would be relocated from time to time as the project expanded. After a brief discussion concerning the entire application, the Chairman called for motions. Mr. Rigsbee moved that the office building, the storage/maintenance building, the pet cemetery, and the security trailer be approved. Mr. Mullins made a second to the motion.
