Ms. Then presented the background summary for this agenda item (on file in the Clerk’s office), including maps, pictures of the postings and the subject property in its current condition, and the chronology of the annexation application.

Ms. Then stated the applicant is present if there are any questions.

Vice Chairperson Sigurdson asked for clarification regarding the right-of-way between the existing property and the property to be annexed.

Ms. Then replied that this is an unimproved right-of-way. She stated that it is maintained by the Town and by the county because not all of the properties along that section of W. Lady Lake Blvd. are within the Town of Lady Lake jurisdiction. She presented the Board with a current survey.

Vice Chairperson Sigurdson asked if there were any further questions or comments.

Reggy Tietjen of 1440 W. Lakeview Avenue in Lady Lake commented that his property is across the road from the church property. He stated that he is concerned there may be increased traffic as the church development progresses and this road is not maintained by the county.

Vice Chairperson Sigurdson asked if staff will be discussing the future of this road with the county.

Ms. Then stated the applicant has submitted a Statement of Purpose outlining their future plans for the property. She stated the applicant wants the property under the Town’s jurisdiction at this point.

Paul Spoltore of the First Baptist Church of Lady Lake stated that church staff and parishioners do not use that road. He stated a fence has been erected on the Lady Lake portion of the front five acres of the property to prevent usage of that road as a through-way. He stated all access to the property will be through the main entrance to the church which is in the front five acres.

Vice Chairperson Sigurdson asked if this section of the road would be closed to the public.

Ms. Then stated this is a public right-of-way and the Town does not have the authority to close it. She stated the Town would not recommend that road be used unless it is improved. If the church submits development plans in the future, road improvements will be discussed at that time.

Paul Harsh, Senior Pastor of First Baptist Church of Lady Lake, stated church staff has installed a buffer the south side of the ten-acre parcel to prevent access and has intentionally not maintained the driveway off of Lakeview Street to deter access to the property.

Vice Chairperson Sigurdson asked if there were any further questions or comments. Hearing none, he asked for a motion.
