Mr. Mike Ash- Extension of mini-warehouses on Atlantic BouZevard- Public Hearing • Mayor Howell recognized Mr. John Alexander, attorney representing Mr. Mike Ash, who presented a color coded chart of the area, and pointed out the buffer zones between the proposed mini-warehouses and single family dwellings. Mr. Alexander added that it was his understanding that letters were in the file from Mrs. Bledsoe, owner of the vacant property, and from the manager of the apartments on Cornell Lane that there were no objections to the proposed mini-warehouses. He noted that an area of approximately 560 feet existed as a buffer zone to the closest single family dwelling. Mayor HoweZZ announced that a Public Hearing was now open and invited the audience to offer comments from • the floor. Mr. Ralph Frizzle, 83 Saratoga Circle presented a petition of request for denial signed by the residents and/or property owners of Saratoga Circle South and North. PAGE TWO V V MINUTES Names of AUGUST 27,1979 Commr s. MS Y N New Business - continued - Mike Ash Public Hearing Mr. Frizzle cited the mini-warehouses as a nuisance stating there was a Zoud band as a tenant and some people were living in the exis, ing units. He also stated the proposed extension would be a threat to residential property values. As no one else spoke for or agains' the Mayor declared the Public Hearing closed. Mayor Howell asked if the City had acquired a dedicated easement for the proposed road to connect through the property to Cavalla Rd. and Mr. Davis answered no, not at this time. The Mayor then expressed reluctance to vote for an extension until the City could adopt an Ordinance controlling the use of the mini-warehouses, stating that even a rape had been reported in one of the other mini-warehouses in the area. Mr. Ash advised the Commission that he had given the band notice to vacate. A lengthy discussion followed regarding necessary regulations neede• for such an Ordinance, such as fencing and dead storage only. Mrs. Hayes, 275 Sailfish Drive suggested limited hours with the mini- warehouses locked at aZZ other times. Commissioner Minton asked Mr. Ash if he would still desire to construct more mini-warehouses should a new Ordinance be passed and Mr. Ash answered in the affir- mative, stating it would be to his advantage. Commissioner Van Nes- opposed a business located in a residential area. Mr. Parks propose. the suggestion for inclusion in stipulations that fencing to be provided for mini-warehouses will comply with the stipulations and/ or specifications of the City of Atlantic Beach. Commissioner Jens., reminded the Commission that the Comprehensive Plan adopted by the City recommended proposed usage as medium density and not business. Commissioner Mhoon expressed the opinion that he would be be willing to approve Mr. Ash's application under PUD with the stipulations that the mini-warehouses would be fenced to the City 's specificatio s; limited to reasonable day-light hours and locked at aZZ other times the area would be lighted; and occupancy to be dead storage only. Commissioner Minton made the motion to approve the application with the stipulations as stated by Commissioner Mhoon. The motion died for Zack of a second. Report of Committees A.

(More commonly known as Saratoga Circle South and Saratoga Circle North.) RE: .PETITION - Request for Denial of Zoning Change We the undersigned, being real property owners and/or residents of Atlantic Beach Villa, Unit No. 2, hereby petition the City Council of The City of Atlantic Beach, Florida to deny a forthcoming request for zoning change, by the owner or his agent, on the parcel of land connect- ing to and extending South of Atlantic Beach Villa, Unit No. 2. We understand that the intent of the request for change, or variance, is to allow for the clearing of foliage and construction of "mini-storage" units, immediately adjacent to a plot of land zoned "A" (Residential) . The stripping of foliage in and of itself is , to say the least, undesir- able from an environmental standpoint. Furthermore, the construction of commercial facilities on a plot of land immediately adjacent to a plot zoned "A" (single unit - residential) is utterly preposterous. The "sweat equity" and dollars invested in our property was done with full knowledge of our zoning classification, and that of adjacent property, not to mention Covenants and Restrictions which apply to our property, as documented in the Official Records of Duval County, Plat Book Volume 1207, Page 157. We, the undersigned, therefore urge you to protect our investments by denying any future requests for zoning changes or variances • on the above described property. As you no doubt know there has already been complaints concerning excessive noise coming from the "mini-storage" facilities hundreds of feet south of the proposed new site. What could we expect from similar facilites right under our very noses???? Si: atur- ice .'urate - Addr vss 4111 SL, C,;, • S .
