KEITH YOUNG RONALD A, HARBERT STEVEN R.BECHTEL November 2, ~970 TE:NTH FLOOR CITIZE:NS NATIONAL BANK BUILDING POST OFFICE: Box 2854 ORLANDO, FLORIDA 32602 TE:LE:PHONE: (305) 425-9044 'II Mayor and Village Council North Orlando,. Florida Re: Florida Land Company - Application for Rezoning Gentlemen: On behalf of our client, Florida Land Company, we request that procedures be instituted under the provisions of Section 44.14-44.16 and Section 44.86 of Ordinance No. 44, the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the Village of North Orlando, as follows: r 1. That the property described in the attachment hereto marked "Description of Parcel to be. Zoned Commercial" be zoned C-l. This property is located at the center of the Village. It includes existing commercial property along State Road S-434 and the site of the present Village Hall and headquarters of the North Orlando Water and Sewer Company. The intersection of State Road S-434 and Moss Road is pro- jected to be the main intersection of the east-west and north- south traffic arteries serving the Village. The property is near the center of that portion of the Village which will be most heavily populated in the foreseeable future. This prop- erty is, therefore, the logical location for shopping, service and municipal facilities permitted within the C-l zoning classification. . 2. That the property described in the attachment hereto marked "Description of Parcel to be Zoned for Apartments" be zoned C-l. While procedurally, the use of this property may not be before the Village Council at this time, this property is separated from the foregoing property as it is the intention of the owner to apply to the Board of Zoning Adjustment for a conditional use as multiple family residence units. This property likewise is located near the center of the Village, and will be appropriate for use by persons employed in the commercial establishments near the center of the Village who r - ~. " .. Page 2 ,"-'- Mayor and Village Council November 2, 1970 will wish to utilize the proximity to shopping, services, etc. It is in an area which, due to the proximity to the projected commercial center of the Village, will be unsuitable for single family residential units. 3. That the property described in the attachment hereto marked "Description of Parcel to be Zoned for Mobile Homes~ be zoned T-l. This property is located at the eastern- most limits of our client's ownership of land and the eastern- most limits of the Village. There is a natural buffer zone of low land along the westerly portion of this property which creates a natural separation from property presently zoned R-U, which will be reserved for future development consistent with the growth of the Village. The property has good access along State Road 419 and Tuskawilla Road. Its natural loca- tion and boundaries render it appropriate for mobile home development. r 4. That the property described in the attachment hereto marked "Description of Parcel to be zoned R-l" be so zoned. Some of this property is now zoned R-lAA, some is zoned R-lA, and the bulk of the prop~rty is zoned R-U. This property is located in the southw~$terly portion of the Village. It abut$ Moss Road, the principal north-south thoroughfare as proposed for the Villaqe. It abuts a large parcel zoned C-2. It abuts Seminole Park & Fairgrounds. Be- cause of the zoning of adjacent po>>tions, any higher residential classification would be inappropriate and uneconomical for this property.. It cannot feasibly be developed and used if lot and building size requirements of more exclusive zoning classifi- cations are continued or imposed. This application is submitted with the belief that all of the zoning requested will not have any detrimental affect on existing uses to which neighboring properties are used, and will be consistent with the comprehensive plan for the use of all property within the Village. It is the desire of my client to proceed as quickly as possible with the development of its significant land hOldings within the Village in order that a population of responsible citizens will result. Therezoning requests made hereby are consistent with such development. r r ,---.. .... ... , ... ~ Page 3 Mayor and Village Council November 2, 1970 They are necessary for the implementation of a master plan which will benefit all concerned. Thank you in advance for application. r consideration of this Ron RAH/fs r r
