9. PDR-07-06(P)(R) - DTS#20120166 - Insignia Bank, LLC / Eagle Trace Subdivision - Stephanie Moreland - Quasi-Judicial -- A County ordinance requires developments with more than 100 units to have more than one access road. The Eagle Trace project preliminary approval was given before the rule was adopted. Commissoner DiSabatino said she would not have voted in favor, had the project not got permission prior to the rule. Commissioners McClash and Gallen felt it best to not support the request without there being a second road other than the gravel emergency road in the plan. -- Approved, 5 -- 2, McClash and Gallen dissenting

10. PDMU-12-04(G) - DTS#20120132 - Royal Palm Condominium or Apartments - Quasi-Judical - Stephanie Moreland -- The PDMU zoned 38.5 acre parcel, east of US 301, west of 33rd Street East and just south of S.R. 70 in Bradenton was said to be "ideal for higher density" according to Brian Litchterman, owner of Visions Planning & Design, representing the Royal Palm Development. Litchterman, a former 22 year-senior planner with Sarasota County Government said, "We have met all of the requirements and agree with all of the stipulations that staff has requested." Additional stipulations, over and above what staff requested, were in place before County Commissioners approved the project for general use. The additions were: providing a turn lane on 33rd Street; buildings set back 100 feet; no pedestrian access to the Briarwood subdivision; advertise a public hearing.
Kent Geartz, Shearon Perish and Robert Green were some of the residents who spoke against approving the project with concerns about the density. -- Approved, 6 -- 1, DiSabatino dissenting
