SORRY ABOUT IT. MY NAME IS DYLAN BROWN. I'VE BEEN SWORN IN.

I'M HERE TO REPRESENT ROBERTSON ROBERTS INCORPORATED ON THIS. SO THE ADDRESS OF ROBERTS, YOUR ADDRESS? OH 2615 COUNTRY CLUB DRIVE, LYNN HAVEN, FLORIDA. OKAY, SO THE PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD. WE'RE APPLYING FOR THOSE TWO PARCELS TO BE ZONED INDUSTRIAL. WE PURCHASED 1714 IN APRIL OF 2019, AND WE'RE NOT ABLE TO HAVE THAT REZONE AT THE TIME BECAUSE IT WOULD THEN SURROUND 1712 ON THREE SIDES WITH COMMERCIAL USE. AND THEN IN APRIL THIS YEAR PURCHASED 1712. SO NOW THE INTENT, EXCUSE ME, IS JUST TO MERGE OR NOT MERGE THE PROPERTIES, BUT USE BOTH FOR AN EXPANSION OF OUR YARD JUST TO PARK EQUIPMENT AND STORE MATERIALS FROM TIME TO TIME. HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? NO THANK YOU, THANK YOU. THANKS. WE'LL MOVE NOW TO PUBLIC PARTICIPATION. SO ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC THAT'S HERE TO SPEAK ON THIS MATTER, GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS AND INDICATE IF YOU'VE BEEN SWORN IN. I'VE BEEN SWORN. MY NAME IS GORDON DENTON. I LIVE AT 1724 MAPLE AVENUE, WHICH IS ADJACENT TO 1712 AND 1714. I GOT SOME CONCERNS THAT WHAT ARE THEY REALLY PLANNING ON DOING WITH THE PROPERTY? LAST TIME THAT THEY WE WAS HERE BEFORE WAS RIGHT AFTER HURRICANE MICHAEL, AND THERE WERE SOME THINGS THAT WERE SAID THAT SEEMED LIKE IT HADN'T BEEN DONE. I MEAN, WHEN WE MOVED IN, IT WASN'T INDUSTRIAL ALL BUT UP ON THE CORNER THERE ON EAST AVENUE, I MEAN, SHERMAN AVENUE. AND SINCE THEN, ROBERTS AND ROBERTS HAVE BOUGHT THREE ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES, ONE ON THE CORNER AND THEN 1712 AND 1714. AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S GOING TO BE PUT RIGHT BESIDE MY HOUSE, BECAUSE IN THE PAST, DUMP TRUCKS HAVE BEAT THE TAILGATES AND WHICH SINCE LAST TIME, IT HAS PRETTY WELL CEASED FROM THAT. BUT WE STILL LIKE TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO GO ON, BECAUSE WHEN I MOVED IN, IT WASN'T INDUSTRIAL AND I DIDN'T WANT INDUSTRIAL, BUT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE BEING PUSHED OUT AND IT'S RIGHT BESIDE. I MEAN, SO I LIKE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IS THEIR PLANS. AND BECAUSE RIGHT NOW I DON'T AGREE FOR ANY CHANGES AND UNLESS IT'S REALLY EXPLAINED AND BROUGHT OUT BECAUSE I DON'T WANT IT TO BE SAID NOW, WE AIN'T PLANNING ON. BUT THEN SIX MONTHS FROM NOW, BECAUSE WE GOT IT WAY WE WANT IT, THEN THEY CAN PROCEED ON. I'D LIKE TO TRY TO KEEP IT FROM HAPPENING, AND THAT'S ALL I GOT TO SAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR. YES, I'M MARSHA ROBBINS AND I'VE BEEN SWORN MY ADDRESS IS 17. NO, EXCUSE ME. 3422 B STREET. AND I'M WONDERING HOW IS THIS GOING TO AFFECT OUR PROPERTY TAXES? AND WILL IT AFFECT THE PEOPLE THAT ARE LIVING THERE? I'M SORRY.

[00:15:04]

SURE. ANYONE ELSE FROM THE PUBLIC HERE TO SPEAK TO THIS MATTER? WE'LL MOVE BACK TO APPLICANT REBUTTAL. THE APPLICANT HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO COME UP AND ADDRESS ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN STATED. WHY DON'T YOU RESTATE AGAIN WHAT YOU PLAN TO WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO? ABSOLUTELY, YES. SO THE PLAN IS FOR PARKING EQUIPMENT AND SOMETIMES STORAGE OF MATERIALS SUCH AS PIPE OR TRAFFIC CONES THAT WILL MOVE IN AND OUT. YOU KNOW, WE MIGHT HAVE TO STORE THEM FOR TWO WEEKS OR THREE WEEKS JUST UNTIL WE NEED TO USE THEM ON THE JOB SITE. BUT THERE'S NO INTENT ASIDE FROM POTENTIALLY, AND WE HAVEN'T DECIDED ON THIS POTENTIALLY BUILDING A POLE BARN JUST TO PUT ATTACHMENTS FOR THE EQUIPMENT UNDERNEATH TO KEEP THEM OUT OF THE WEATHER WHILE THEY'RE IN STORAGE. BUT OTHER THAN PARKING AND STORAGE, THERE'S THERE'S NO OTHER INTENT FOR THE PROPERTY. THANK YOU.

WITH THAT, WE'LL MOVE TO COMMISSION DISCUSSION AND ACTION. AND I THINK BEFORE WE BEFORE WE TAKE ACTION, IT BEARS NOTING THAT THAT YOU'VE GOT RESIDENTIAL IMMEDIATELY TO THE NORTH YOUR PROPERTY SIR. AND SO THEY HAVE OBLIGATIONS RELATIVE TO BUFFERS AND, AND, AND SO FORTH BETWEEN THEIR PROPERTY AND YOUR PROPERTY BEING THAT IT'S A COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL USE, IN THIS CASE, BORDERING INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY. SO THAT GIVES YOU SOME PROTECTIONS AS WELL. ALL RIGHT. SO ANY DISCUSSION PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD. I'M GOOD. I NEED A MOTION AND A SECOND. I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE SECOND. MR. CHRISTIE. YES, MA'AM. MR. YES, MA'AM. MR. CARTER. YES, MA'AM. MR. HONEYCUTT. YES, MA'AM. YES, MA'AM. YES, MA'AM.
