have so that we are not simply going to have more apartments?"
Chad Minor, 151 Southhall Lane, Suite 200 Maitland, Florida: introduced himself and
answered, "They are going to be HOA (Homeowner Association) setup. We have a similar
product in Lake Nona that we actually provided Brian [Fields] an example of the HOA
(Homeowner Association) deed restrictions as something we would model this one after as
well. So, I believe we can put in place some assurances that it will remain.."
Board Member McCann then inquired if there was anything the City could do to make sure
that the condominium, did not turn into apartments to which Mr. Fields answered, "If this
went to the Commission. our recommendation is to limit the special exception to age
