XZZ. Legal
City Attorney Cherof explained that the developers of Hampton Court requested that a new item
be added to the agenda. This item was denied by the Planning & Development Board and died
there because the court stipulation did not permit the item to move on to the Commission
without the Planning & Development Board's approval. The developers came back with a
proposed new joint motion and agreed order that would allow it to come one more step
through the process to the Commission. The agenda item would not be the discussion of the
project, but just whether or not the Commission wants the City Attorney to sign off on this
stipulation and get relief of court. Then, the project would come back to the City Commission

would be automatic since the parties would be agreeing to it. City Attorney Cherof explained
that if the Commission wants to consider this project, they should vote yes on the request and
if they do not want to consider the project, they should vote no.

Kurt
I will be unable to attend the agenda preview scheduled for Thursday, February 13`h at 4:00
P.M.,however after reviewing the draft agenda, and following my discussion with you,I would
like to comment on one item proposed to be walked on regarding a project known as Hampton
Place.
The Developer of the proposed project is requesting that the City consider entering into a
stipulation, which would authorize the City Commission to review the developrnant application,
which was denied by the Planning and Development Board.
I am adamantly opposed to this project and objcct to any rezoning of the property for town
houses. I would, however, not be opposed to considering a rezoning for single family
residences,provided they do not have a zero lot line.
I request that in my absence, you bring my thoughts on this matter forward to the rzembers of the
City Commission at the agenda preview meeting tomorrow.
Thank you.
