The public hearing was opened by Chairman Tindall.
Don Hartfelder spoke in support of his request. He said the main
intent of this proposal'is to split the first floor main clubhouse
and banquet facility into two (2) buildings on the lower level which
are presently connected thereby allowing, by this redesign, direct
access to the -pool and beach area. On the second floor,'where'
the two (2) buildings will -remain connected, they wish to construct
two (2) offices and one (1) small secretarial space. In so,doing,
they will eliminate 360 square feet of.space which is now used for
restaurant tables and a portion of the bar on the first floor
adding to the second floor 720 square feet of office space including -
the -small secretarial space.- Mr. Hartfelder further stated that
a revised plan, dated -January 21, 1982,,.has been submitted to the
Board for approval which deleted the two (2)- storage areas -requested
on original plan. As it was felt by a few concerned people that
-the proposed location of the storage areas would obstruct viewing
from the tennis courts, the owner decided to eliminate the storage
areas from his plan completely. The proposed addition will not
necessitate a change in parking requirement.
With no one else present to speak for or against this. proposal,
the public hearing was closed.
Board discussion ensued covering the architecture of -new addition
being compatible with existing portion of building.
