(Statf phofo by Bud Jenkins) Vote Split On DC A By JIM WIIITESIIIELD (Staff Writer) MIRAMAR Zoning to per-i mit construction of the first big! apartment project in Broward County's fourth largest city was approved -last night by a 3-2 vote of the city council sitting; as a zoning board. Councilmen John Marini and Joseph Campbell voted against the measure, questioning the good faith of the applicant, De-' velopment Corp.

of America, in promising a double row of single family homes as a buffer between existing single family residential area and the pro-i posed 300 unit apartment proj-l ect. "What's to stop you from coming back later and asking to have that buffer rezoned for apartments?" Campbell asked Alvin Sherman, president of DCA. "I don't know whether we should Jet you go ahead with two-story apartments until we find out what's behind the complaints from people who bought some of your single family homes." Campbell was referring to a rash of complaints from a number of purchasers of DCA homes. Joseph Dodds III, a Hollywood architect, was commissioned to investigate the complaints and return a report, but recently was fired from the job over delays to submit the completed report on his study. SHIFTS PLANS Sherman redrew his original plans, which would have started the apartment area along the south side of SW 33rd to move the entire project 250 feet south.

The 250 feet he established as a block of single family residential lots and another 50-foot street between 33rd St. and the existing homes. Homeowners had protested that they "don't want the back of apartment houses looking out at us," despite Sherman's assurances that such would not be the case. The vote to recommend approval of the zoning came aft er Sherman promised the city a letter pledging to build a model home "in the middle of the block so the whole block has to be developed in single family homes. The model is to be built within a year after the plat of the area is recorded.

Marini forced the letter from Sherman by questioning whether DCA would ever develop the 32 residential lots in the buffer strip. County $1.7 Millions Set For Roads support of numerous civic groups and chambers of com- merce for it. Commissioners brushed aside "the suggestion of Commissioner J. Herbert Burke that the prob-1-lem be approached from a legal rather than financial viewpoint. In asking that Hanson be giv- en the job of studying the Men-'tal Health Association's proposal for upcoming budget talks, Commission Chairman F.

R. Humphries said, "This is a mat-" ter of money." Burke said the problem was broader. "The county should look for-ward some day to building a brand new home of its own," Burke said, adding that the le-, gal limits of the county's authority should be defined. I APPRAISAL ASKED Burke said a "fair appraisal the law" which spells out the county may or may -not do in caring for the mental -patients should be made. He questioned whether the county could remove mental patients from South Florida State Hospitals once they have been adjudicated incompetent.

Mrs. Power Sharretts, executive director of the Mental Health Association, said that the county judge and examing psy- chiatrists have in some in- stances "leaned over back-j awards" in committing border line senile because there was no other facilities for them. I She said that according to a 'recent survey about 40 of 119 senile patients from Broward County at S. Florida State were considered non-psychotic. These people, she said, do not belong in a mental hospital.

Burke agreed but said that "because of the increasing num- ber of elderly residents more thought should be given on how to care for them. F. R. West who made the pres- entation for the Mental Health Association said there are now Broward residents who are over 65 years old compared Ito 56,731 in 1960 and 9,709 in 1950.
