Mr. Frank Meroney, Director of Land Planning for Urban Design Studio, discussed a preservation program for the proposed devel- opment. Mr. Howard Searcy, consulting engineer for the petitioner, stated in preservation, the petitioner will offer to the agencies in- volved, restoration rather than preservation. They will remove the exotic species but there will not be a functioning wetland. Mr. Mark Hendrickson requested that the mangroves west up to the salinity dam be preserved and provide a buffer zone to protect the mangroves. Mr. Skokowski discussed changes to some of the conditions of approval as listed in the staff report with the Commission. Chairman Vogel opened the Public Hearing. The Commission heard comments /questions from the following residents: Ms. Debra Pape, 3625 Island Road, Cabana Colony, asked what kind of housing would be in Section E. Mr. Dennis St. Charles, 125 Street, stated he was pleased with the development plans. Mr. August Hernandez, Government Liaison for The School Board of Palm Beach County, introduced Mr. Bill Hukill, Assistant Superin- tendent of Schools. Mr. Hukill would like to see a condition of approval that a 25 -30 acre parcel of land would be set aside in lieu of impact fees. The Commission suggested utilizing the property proposed for a public park in conjunction with plans for 2 a school. Mr. Jeff French, 3127 Grove Road, Cabana Colony, stated he lives off of Section G. Mr. French expressed concern with the possi- bility of having multi - family units on Section G. Mr. French also expressed concern with the lack of maintenance on the canal between Cabana Colony and the proposed development. He stated he hoped it would be better maintained in the future. Chairman Vogel recessed the Public Hearing to the Planning & zoning Commission Meeting of January 23, 1990. Chairman Vogel asked Mr. Skokowski to address the questions and comments raised at the Public Hearing. Mr. Skokowski stated they would expect some form of attached sin- gle- family cluster home or townhouse for Section E. The build - �- ings would be no more than two stories. He stated in Section G, they would expect a zero lot line type of patio home. Mr. Skokowski stated Mr. Searcy would have to work on the problem of the canal maintenance to see if there is something they can do about it. Mr. Lioce stated his concerns as follows: the project needs to have Hood Road go all the way through from Prosperity Farms Road to Alternate A -1 -A; he does not like the easement concept instead of buffering; he is concerned with density impact of multi - family buildings on abutting residences (would like one -story restric- tion or more buffering); he would like to see a condition stating the City will comply with the Interlocal Agreement; consideration of the 14.5 -acre site for a school instead of a park as it is now proposed; and, find out who has jurisdiction over the canal 3 between the proposed development and Cabana Colony and look into • getting it cleaned up.
