BOOK 19, P53/54).

no impact upon delivery of services and staff recommends approval.

Tim Knowles, Attorney representing the applicant, advised they wish to

RECORD RESOLUTION S35-647

STREET VACATION: WOODS AT CONQUISTADOR, UNIT I

Public hearing (continued from 9/2/86 Notice in The Bradenton Herald

7/31/86) was opened to consider

R-86-117-V APPLICATION OF THOMAS A. LEWIS, PRESIDENT

OF LEWIS PROPERTIES, AS GENERAL PARTNER OF PALMA SOLA

LTD, TO VACATE ALL OF THE PLAT OF LOTS A, B, OF C BLOCK

B OF THE WOODS AT CONQUISTADOR SUBDIVISION, UNIT 1,

(PLAT BOOK 19, P/86/87/88) INCLUDING ALL DRAINAGE AND

UTILITY EASEMENTS THEREON.

Tom Fenton advised that this request coincides with request for

approval of a new 4-lot subdivision "The Forest at El Conquistador" on

part of the vacated area.

(Depart Mrs. Glass)

He outlined concerns by area residents on whether single or multi-

family homes would be built and if current deed restrictions would

apply to the new subdivision. Staff did not object to the request if

the applicant agrees to the deed restrictions and construction of

single-family residents.

(Enter Mrs. Glass)

Tom McCollum, Zoller Najjar & Shroyer, Engineer for applicant, read

and submitted a letter from Robert Blalock, attorney for applicant,

stating the proposed actions (plat vacation and concurrent replat) do

not amend or revoke the existing restrictions and covenants which

affect the 2.576 acre parcel, and that they desire to develop this

parcel for single-family residential purposes.

It was the opinion of the Chief Assistant County Attorney that the

letter from Mr. Blalock is not sufficient as a basis for a decision by

the Board.

Discussion: Validity of deed restrictions if vacation is approved.

Recess/reconvene. All members present.

Robert Lee Shapiro, Attorney for the Avenida Madera Home Owners'

Association, reviewed and/or submitted

1. Site plan of El Conquistador area as shown property buyers

2. Proposed plat of Forest at El Conquistador Subdivision.

3. Exhibit to plat of The Woods at Conquistador Subdivision,

Unit 1, indicating area restricted to single-family

development and the limits of the jurisdictional area.

4. Photographs: Showing close proximity of apartments to

single family homes (3 photos); Fence on Avenida Madera

built to deter traffic from neighboring apartments; a water-

filled hollow, dug while attempting to construct a road from

the apartments to Avenida Madera.

He expressed concern with the vacation of the drainage/utility

easements and the potential effect vacating the plat would have on the

restrictive covenants and dedication. He referred to the restrictive

covenants (11/79) allowing construction of single-family homes (only)

on these lots and subsequent dedication (7/84) stating that the

property now under construction was not platted single-family due to

the existence of an environmentally sensitive slough (boundaries not

determined by the Department of Environmental Regulation).

He requested a stipulation be included (in any replat) that the area

be restricted to single-family use in keeping with the construction

and value of the present homes.

Motion was made by Mrs. Hooper and seconded by Mrs. Glass to accept

all maps, charts and documents to which reference was made in this

presentation. Motion carried unanimously. (NOTE: Documents

regarding restrictive covenants and dedication not submitted)

Discussion: Rezoning area to allow single-family units only;

referring request to staff for procedural and legal remedy; additional

language or document to be recorded with the new plat to impose

similar deed restrictions currently on this property.

William Lowe, Attorney for an individual property owner, indicated

that if restrictive covenants are more restrictive than zoning

ordinances, then the uses dictated by those covenants will be given

effect by the courts under ordinary circumstances.

Victor Kauseman read and submitted a statement requesting denial.

(NOTE: Statement not submitted to Deputy Clerk)

Mr. McCollum suggested this item be tabled for one week to allow the

developer to prepare restrictive covenants to resolve concerns.

The public comment portion of the hearing was closed.

Motion was made by Mr. Chetlain to remand this request to the County

Attorney for his final review and recommendation and to continue the

public hearing to September 23, 1986. Motion was seconded by Mrs.

Hooper and carried unanimously.

ANNEXATION - SNEAD ISLANDr BRADENTON YACHT CLUB & ELMORE PROPERTY

Tedd Williamsreported onthe proposedannexationofthe Bradenton

Yacht Club on Snead Island into the City of Palmetto and noted that in

order for cities to annex adjacent property it must be coterminus with

the boundary of the annexing municipality. The only portion of the

Yacht Club contiguous to the city is the northeast corner, approxi¬

mately 60 feet, which is contiguous to property across the street.

Since this parcel is the subject of litigation between the county and

city, the county would be an affected party and would have a legal

standing to oppose annexation of the Yacht Club.

(Depart Mr. Chance)

Comments by residents of Snead Island were:

Vie Holmes - his opinion that most area property owners do not wish

annexation into the city; majority of Yacht Club members would not

favor annexation; questioned the installation of additional sewer

lines by the City of Palmetto.

(Enter Mr. Chance)

Chuck Sofelt - funds allocated by Heritage Bay and City of Palmetto to

install/upgrade lift-station pump.

J. W. Deese - property purportedly contingent to property across the

street leased to county and no property owned by the Yacht Club is

contingent; questioned requirement by city that the Club install a

four-inch sewer line from lift station into two-inch line under right-

of-way.

Walter Sell, owner of Gull Harbor Motor Court, - opposed annexation.

Motion was made by Mrs. Glass, seconded by Mrs. Hooper and carried

unanimously, to accept copies of correspondence as follows:

= Letter with signatures of nine people opposed to annexing

Bradenton Yacht Club into City of Palmetto;

= Letter from Snead Island Community, Inc., opposing annexation;

= Letter from Bill Padelford, Senior Law Clerk, to H. Hamilton

Rice, Jr., County Attorney, outlining action by City of

Palmetto regarding annexation of Snead Island.

Mr. Chetlain moved that the Board go on record opposing any further

annexation by the City of Palmetto on Snead Island; that if and when

the city attempts to annex the Bradenton Yacht Club, the county shall

fight it in court; that the present suit over the annexation of the

Elmore property be pursued as expeditiously as possible. Motion was

seconded by Mrs. Glass and carried unanimously.
