Ms. Heyden advised that shared parking is included in this request. The Planning and Development Board recommended restriping of the parking lot. 1. Project Name: Agent: Owners: Location: Description: Mayor Hanmening said that he has never seen more than seventeen (17) cars parked in this lot. Most of this building has been vacant since it was built. He feels there may be something wrong with our Parking Lot Ordinance to require as many spaces as we do under certain conditions. If the membership of this church is stated correctly, they do not even need the number of spaces they have. To require them to repaint the spaces seems like it is "gilding the lily". Motion Commissioner Katz moved to approve the major site plan modification of conver- sion of a portion of the existing office building to a church, including parking lot improvements and shared parking agreement at the southeast corner of Gulfstream Boulevard and Old Dixie Highway, Gulfstream Professional Building, subject to all staff comments. Vice Mayor Matson requested that Commissioner Katz consider implementing the Mayor's comments into his motion, rather than subject to all staff comments. - 10 - .J Use: Construct 25,282 Sq. --~ Office Building Mr. Carmen Annunziato, City Planner, said this is a proposed office building located at the intersection of Gulfstream Boule- vard and Old Dixie Highway in the Southeast corner.
