Advisory Planning Board
June 4, 1985
Ron Gray stated that he agreed with the concept, but was uncomfortable
with not having, in writing, what they planned to do.
Mr. O'Steen stated that he was confused as to what the Board wanted
submitted. He stated that he was under the impression that the Board
wanted to see the ma_x i m an density.
Louis B. MacDonell, 1535 Selva Marina Drive, stated that the "blank
check" was out and that they want the basic concept and overall idea of
the subdivision approved, subject to meeting the requirements of the
PUD ordinance.
Roger O'Steen stated that they were not far enough along to give the
submittals called for in the PUD ordinance. He stated that he understood
when he left the last meeting, that the Board was not concerned with
those things, but was concerned with the density and how it impacted
Mayport Road.
After a general discussion, Ned Searcy, Stokes-O'Steen Communities,
asked if the city would permit them from deviating from the PUD if
they later find, for example, a road must be changed. He wanted
assurances that they would have the flexibility to do so. Gregg McCaulie
stated that the Code provides that the developers present preliminary
locations of the streets, houses, etc. , and that the city can approve
minor changes to the original PUD.
Mr. O'Steen asked the Board if they would permit them to do some more
extensive planning and return to the Board at a later date.
Commissioner Morris suggested that the applicants meet with City Hall
staff to review the application, prior to the next meeting.
Gregg McCaulie motioned to defer ruling on the request until it could
be presented again. Ruth Gregg seconded the motion which carried
unanimously.
