Meeting  
Applicant Asrubal Polanco gave an overview of the project and his intentions to develop an  
office space on the property.  
Chair Wallace stated the property is very narrow at 60 feet wide and asked applicant if he  
has visited the property as FPL may require no construction within 100 feet of easement of  
any utility poles.  
Discussion occurred about the utility poles and uses for the property.  
Chair Wallace stated that staff will investigate the property and speak with FPL regarding  
the power line easements.  
Member Grosvenor spoke regarding the requirement for a 24 foot wide drive aisle.  
Chair Wallace spoke regarding concerns about the size of the property, once setbacks and  
easements are respected.  
B.  
Captain Drive - Residential Development - Pre-Application Meeting  
Applicant's representative, Andres Garban spoke about the property and the owner's  
desire to develop the property into what may be suitable for the City. Mr. Garban spoke on  
his concerns about flooding on the property.  
Discussion occurred about stormwater and the need for sanitary sewer connection for a  
subdivision development.  
The applicant asked what exactly can be done on the property in terms of zoning  
regulations.  
Chair Wallace spoke regarding the parcel being located in a Flood Zone A, and the need to  
meet FEMA standards.  
Discussion occurred about potential development options, costs associated, and selling  
the property.  
Ms. Entwistle advised that the R1 zoned parcel would require a Plat and would require  
sewer, water, and sidewalks. She insisted that the parcel would be a heavy lift to rezone  
because of it being in wetlands, and this area floods.  
C.  
716 Fort Smith Blvd - Park & Go - Pre-Application Meeting  
Applicant, Isaac Burgos-Hernandez gave insight into wanting to develop a potential car  
storage facility at the location, as he is the owner of both lots.  
Member Entwistle assured the applicant that the lots would need to be combined and  
rezoned as C1, it's current zoning, does not allow for a car storage space. She stated C3  
zoning, heavy commercial would be needed for this use.  
Discussion occurred about various usages of the property and what is allowed.  
Member Entwistle advised the applicant to get a survey in order to combine the lots.  
Chair Wallace urged the applicant to discuss with a civil engineer the plans and potential to  
build on the property. She advised the applicant will need an updated survey as the utilities  
and easements are not properly labeled on the existing survey.

with the City with regards to getting a new survey done.
