Also present, Mr. Don Pruitt, Consultant from South Alabama Regional Planning Commission. Members absent: Mrs. Leona Newman and Mr. Cecil Pitman. Mayor James P. Nix moved, seconded by 11r, Jack Kirk, to approve the minutes of the May 2, 1977 meeting. Motion carried. The first item brought before the Commission was the applica- tion of Alma E. Britton, owner, for Final Plat Approval of Br_i.t.ton SUbdlyisiOn; a subdivision of acreage into two (2) Lots. This property is situated in the NW4 of the NGI4 of Section 16, Township 6 South, Range 2 East; located at the southeast corner of Gayfer Street and Greeno Road. Mrs. Dot Marshall of Mannich Realty was present to represent the application. Mrs. Marshall gave a letter to the Commission from the Baldwin County Health Department which stated that the property will require two (2) feet of fill in an area 100 feet square before a septic tank can be installed. Mayor James P. Nix moved to grant Final Plat Approval to the Alma E. Britton Subdivision subject to the County Health requirement of fill being met. Mr. Chester Billie seconded the motion. Motion carried. Mr. Ack Moore came before the Commission for an informal discussion on the rezoning of the area known as East of the Sun from R73 to R-4 in order to meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance regarding the number of units per acre. Commission members said that they didn't feel there would be any problem in rezoning since Mr. Forsman owned all of the surround- ing property. The next item brought before the Commission was a discussion on the Eastern Shore Art Center's need for a variance because of the proximity of the expanded Art Center to Section Street road right-of-way. Member Harford Field questioned the need for a variance because he felt the Art Center was in compliance with the set back restrictions of the R-2 zone. Mr. Don Pruitt stated that he felt it did not meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and that the only way to handle the situation was for the Art Center to apply for a variance, Members of the Commission discussed whether the Art Center would be considered a private or public building. Mayor James P. Nix moved, seconded by Harford Field to grant a building permit to the Eastern Shore Art Center based on the following: 1. The building meets the set back requirements for a residence in an R-2 zone. 2. The building meets the set back requirements for a business in an R-2 zone. .. ..... lz� /Z7911' 40 77 143, "IQ 78, 12 2 0 k- 7-1t h i8 "_ _ �_'_ — N C3 tn aj oz) L K. 77 Ul -,X: >�,olf"1 °� __ �°I °'.

At the time of surveying for the subject project, extensive research was done in the probate records of Baldwin County as to the width of right of way possession by _this Department. Our records indicate that the width is 80 feet or 40 feet on each side of the existing roadway. A sketch is at- tached reflecting the subject findings. This matter is for your information and file.
