In view of these changes, the Planning Department believes that new applicants should abide by the already liberalized requirements. PUBLIC WORKS Dedication is required by plat.

On December 16, 1982 the City Commission, upon the appeal of the Planning Depart- ment, refused to overturn the decision of the Zoning Board which, in essence, made the variances effective as of that date. On behalf of our client, Sophal, Inc., we hereby request an extension of these variances and the right to build under the RC-B zoning classi-fication as it existed on December 16, 1982, until June 16, 1934. Our client has submitted the project to major institutional lenders for the necessary financing based upon the RC-B zoning and variances thereunder. However, Sophal, Inc. has yet to reach agreement for the financing of the project. The foregoing request for an extension of the time within to obtain a building permit under the RC-B ordinance and variances granted our client is made with the express understanding that our client may opt to develop the property pursuant to the zoning classification of the property, as same may change from time to time. 83-436 11C. •••iri:. ..•.;�L :i'.;Qh �,. •c.'-.a,•rc. � �•� �y �,�:/i'ft'^ 'c �•ai�*;t -v...
