SANIBEL — CAPT1VA Vol. 16, No. 9 Tuesday, March 2, 1976 1 section — 10 cents Shell Fair starts Thursday! The Planning Commission began yesterday's meeting with a "standing room only" crowd who had come to talk for and against a request by Joseph Kueharski, to build eleven 1.500 sq ft. restricted commercial buildings between the two Yachtsman Drives. The Commission took exception to the fact that in the petition a 4.500 sq. ft. restaurant had been called for but the building was not on the blueprint nor had any parking been allocated for the 200-seat restaurant. KueharsM said that if the commission did not want a restaurant, be would aot pat cue in. Richard Brodeur, representing Kocfaarski, said the plan as presented complied wiikall the requirements of 76-1 after the Commfesioaers said feat the Meat of the restricted commercial area was aot to create a shopping center but to cater to the "mom and pop" type businesses. Brodeur asked for a list of BOB-eompliaBces so that Ms client would know what to do. whereupon George Teasey said that perhaps the Commission had erred in their judgement about what the restricied eonmiereiai meant in theory and hew it came out in practice. Chairman Basse White said that KueharsM was asking forpartof the iand use plan which is now under revision and rsnini«d tibe petltlaoer &at as of the moment no plan had yet been adopted. " :'"- • Several of fie residents of tfae east Island Beigbborliood spoke against the project; several spoke for the project. KueharsM said that he had worked wiOi members of the planning commission and with the mayor and had believed he was complying with the intent of the plan as well as 76-1, md that he was acting in good faith. Had he received an infavorable response from individual members of the lanning commission, he said that he would never have Dent $6,006 or $1,000 on-engineering work. A motion was made to deny the request and then amen- ;d. The amendment said that the compatibility of the RC-l •quest with adjacent property was in question and that the :quest was inconsistent with any amendment to the reposed comprehensive land use plan. Both motions were passed unanimously. Five-minute itermissioawas called, after which KueharsM said that the roperty had changed in zoning three times, from con- lOminium to duplex to commercial, that he came before the lommission in good faith, and attempted to do what he thought the plan called for. However, he saw no way that the problems could be solved outside of a court of law and ' 'I will spend every damn doEar I have to do it.
