SPECIAL MEETING. A Special Meeting or the City Council will he
held at 5 p.m. next Monday, .June 23rd in the City Mannge.r'n office to pre-
pare Lila ballot box for Tuesdays election.
Tuesdays Council Meeting will be held in the regular City Council Chambers.
UPPER PALATLAKAHA RIVER BASIN STUDY. Will Davis, the Project
Director will be attending Tuesdays Council Meeting to give a status report
on this study. As you may recall, this is the first yenr of a three year study,
and a copy of the Project Synopsis is enclosed.
BUDGET AMENDMENT. Enclosed is a memo from the Finance Director
regarding an amendment to this years budget that is necessary for the City
to comply with the new Governmental Accounting Practice Standards.
As you may recall, the City used funds from both the last and present fiscal- - -
year to construct our street repair program. The expenditure was encumbered
last year to be paid this year; however, ti:e new accounting standards require
encumbrances to be budgeted in the current fiscal year. Therefore, a budget
admendment is necessary to comply with these standards, and this in simply an
accounting procedure that will have no monetary effects to the City.
UTILITY DEPARTMENT. Thursday and Friday the City water mains were
flushedo and we are assisting the City Engineer with the Infiltration Study
on the City's sewer system. We also replaced a broken seal in Lift Stati.o:i 21
on Pitt Street, and made repairs to the expansion joint at the Highland Avenue
water tank. Expansion joints allow the water tank to expand and contract without
breaking rivets as the tank expands to fill with water, and contracts when water
is�withdrawn. This joint is still leaking slightly and we will be forced to
re -fill the joints within the next few weeks.
PUBLIC WORKS. The Public Works Department is patching streets,
constructing the Bloxam Avenue sidewalk and constructing drainage improvements
at the Middle School Park.
I J WASTEWATER ALTERNATIVES. Wastewater Alternatives is again on the
Agendalfor the next Council Meeting. Since time is beginning to get short on
our icompliance schedule, 'the City Manager needs some clear directives to allow
ltim to, research Engineering and Financing options.
POLICE DEPARTMENT. Twelve traffic tickets were issued in various
parts of the City last week.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. Enclosed is a letter from DOT
regarding a speed limit change on Highway 50 to reduce the limit from 50 to 45
at Emerald Lakes.
COUNTY ROAD AND BRIDGE 'PAX. The Lake County City Managers and
Clerks have been conducting meetings recently to discuss matters of mutual
concern. One of the isaues that has been discussed is the County Road and
Bridge Tax.
Presently the County assesses a .82 mill levy against the Cities as a Road
anti Bridge Tax, yet only returns to the Cities one half of the monies
collected. This year we have budgeted $18,000 in County Road and Bridge
Revenues, yet the County will have received $36,000 in taxes from City
residents. It would not cost our taxpayers any additional money if the
County would drop this levy against Cities and allow each City to assess
the .82 mill levy. This would double the City's revenues from this mill
levy without increasing the overall mill levy.
I look forward to the Council's direction on this matter. -—- -- -- -

FACTS OBTAINED BY FIELD STUDY
a. The studied portion of SR 50 lies in Section 11070 and extends from SLO MP
10.881 to SLO MP 11.310, a distance of 0.429 miles.
b. The roadway across this section is a two lane facility extending in a west -
east direction from Groveland to Clermont.
c. The roadway in the study area is relatively level prior to a vertical curve
with no horizontal curves that restrict sight distance.
Sight distance is adequate.
d. Roadside culture along the studied roadway is rural with three entrances to a
major Mobile Home Park for retirees.
e. Records of this office show the 1978 AAT along the studied portion of SR 50
to be 9231 vehicles.
f. Speed checks were taken at 2 points with the following results:

h. According to the records submitted by the City of Clermont the subject location
experienced 8 accidents accounting for injury to three persons and estimated
propertydamages of $58.675.00 for the 14 month study period ending 4-30.80.
The accidents by type are as follows:
6 rearend collisions
2 angle collisions
One of the accidents involved speeds of 85 MPH.
Four of the accidents occurred on dry road surface and four on wet road surface.
ANALYSIS
A. The above results and the speed distribution curve at each check point indicates
that in consideration of the accidents and other unusual circumstances. a
reduction in the maximum speed is justified.
B. Field examination determined definite points of speed change and driving tests
of the recommended speed zones showed them to be reasonable and safe.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Lake County - Section 11070
In order to provide reasonable and safe speed restriction zones on SR 50 in the City
of Clermont it is recommended that the following be approved and conflicting restric-
tions be rescinded:

CITY OF CLERMIONT
P.O. BOX 219. CLESMONT, FLORIDA 32711 . PHONE 904/394•4081
This statement is an attempt to clarify the City's any/m#yNpersonal position on
finding an acceptable solution to the community prob em of disposal of the
City of Clermont's secondarily treated wastewater.
Beginning in 1975, the City began to investigate the feasibility of wetlands
disposal of Clermont's wastewater with the Lake County Pollution Control
Board and the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation. This investiga-
tion was undertaken primarily because a similar study of the City of Wildwood's
disposal of wastewater into wetlands, which feeds Lake Panasoffkee, had shown
no adverse effects on the surface waters of Lake Panasoffkee even though Wild -
wood had been using this disposal method for more than twenty (20) years.
After numerous meetings, Clermont officials, the Lake County Pollution Control Board
and the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation agreed that wetlands
disposal might be an acceptable alternative. The City was subsequently auth-
orized by the regulatory agencies to conduct.a pilot study of wetlands disposal
of secondary treated wastewater from the Clermont Sanitary Treatment Plant.
The Study was begun in early 1971 and the completed final report titled, "Removal
of Nutrients From Treated Municipal Wastewater By Freshwater Marshes" was
presented to the City in October 1979. The Study results concluded that wet-
lands disposal in Clermont was an acceptable method of disposal while still
protecting our lake water quality.
The opinion of the Researchers, the City Engineers, and other qualified scien-
tists who reviewed the study, convinced the Clermont City Council to pursue
wetlands disposal. A Town Hall Meeting was held in Jenkins Auditorium on
January 22, 1980 to present the wetlands disposal concept to Clermont residents.
presentation t 0e th
One of the principal researchers, Dr. John Zoltek, made p
approximately one hundred fifty (150) interested citizens. Numerous questions
were asked of Dr. Zoltek concerning potential harmful effects to lake quality.
All questions were answered to the satisfaction of the audience on the proposals
complete safety. Mr. Ted (dicks, director of the Lake County Pollution Control
Board was in attendance at this meeting but declined to ask any questions y. —
Dr. Zoltek or make any statements concerning the proposal known as Concept
The newly elected Councilman Dennis Thomas also attended the Town Hall Meet-
ing, but elected not to ask the researchers any questions or make any statement.
The last question asked at this meeting was, "Should the City continue to pursue
the concept of wetlands disposal?". The overwhelming response from the audience
was, "Yes". Not a single NO vote was heard.
h,ubnequontl.y, Mr. Thomnn dee.lar.ed hla 0pp0sit101l to tine concept and stated his
intention to oppoue wetlands disposal of Cl.erniont's wastewater. A special
Clermont City Council meeting was called to agal.n give Clermont residents the
opportunity to review
all the alternatives considered by the City for waste-
water disposal. After several hours of public discussion, the Council voted
three (3) to one (1) to pursue wetlands disposal under Concept IV with Council-
man Thomas in the negative. Councilman Cole, who could not attend the meeting,
sent word through the City Manager, Mr. Forbes, that he also supported wetlands
disposal.
At the next Lake County Pollution Control. Board meeting, a presentation was
made by the researchers and two additional wetlands scientists, including Dr.
Thomas Odum. Dr. Odum, an internationally recognized authority in wetlands
ecology, categorically stated his support of Clermont's proposal. The Lake
County Pollution Control Board voted two (2) to two (2) to permit Clermont's
proposal. Again, at this. public hearing, with approximately one hundred (100)
in attendance, Mr. Thomas elected not to ask questions of the researchers or
to make a statement concerning his opposition to the proposal.
In time it became apparent that a considerable amount of misinformation was
being circulated in the community concerning Clermont's proposal. The problems
In Orange County and Lake Tolnopekaliga were erroneously equated to be directly
comparable to what would happen to our lakes if wetlands disposal were imple-
mented. Nothing could be further from the facts.
In order to clarify the feeling of the community, I requested a non -binding straw
ballot be taken on the issue on the June 10th special election. -Mr. Thomas--- ------
was the only Councilman who wanted assurance that the straw vote would be non-
binding.
1 personally committed to abide by the results of the straw ballot, feeling that
without visable community support, agency approval would be extremely difficult-,
if not impossible. The straw ballot resulted in a negative vote on wetlands
disposal. In my opinion, the negative vote was due in part to an unsigned,
inaccurate, deliberately misleading and emotionally charged handout which was
distributed the night before the election. A copy is attached. In my opinion,
several employees of regulatory agencies, acting on their own, assisted in
formulating the ideas contained in this handout. I consider their actions
regretable and unprofessional.
At the Town Hall Meeting, I restated my intention to discontinue support for
wetlands proposal stating that without visable community support, I felt it
impossible to obtain necessary permits. In response to a question by a member
of the audience on what could people in favor of pursuing wetlands disposal do
to influence the Council to continue; I stated that I felt nothing could be done.
But being the eternal optimist, if a petition were presented to the Council
with four hundred fifty (450) names on it, the Council might consider holding
an additional public hearing with the researchers to answer questions. I did
not then, nor have I since actively promoted such a petition. Again in response
to several requests from the audience, I withdrew my second of Mr. Thomas' motion
until a full Council could be seated.

Several posLtl.ve thl.nl;n have come ol'. this project:

future use of wetlands dlHposa.l. HyatOMH.
'Phu people of Clermont have v.Ls:ibl.y shown their concern
for m1rl.ntai.n1n{; and preserving our lake water quality.
'l'he scientific community luul convinced me,and I still believe without any
doubt, that C1crmont'a wetlands proposal was appropriate and safe. However,
I also believe the deviHive currents in the community can only be healed by
moving forward in selecting an alternative other than full scale wetlands
disposal.
It is now time for the Clermont Council and for. the Community to reunite in
seeking a permanent solution to wastewater disposal.
".f
There is no easy, inexpensive or guaranteed ultimate solution. We need to
proceed with all due haste in selecting the best alternative method available.

WHY:
1, According to the fine] report on the Marshland EiL'urty conducted by
the Centers for Wetlands, the only feasible method for removing
phosphorus is to force .it tht'rn)f:h the peat. The city's present
proposal is in direct conflict with the, recommendation in this re-
port.

3, According, to Ted Wicks, Director of Lake, County POthellutPalatlakaion ha
phosphorus from the sprayfiel.d runoff its reaching
-- River. This runoff traverses a large marshy area.
q. According to the Department or Envi.ronmental Regulation, the area
where the city proposes to discharge the effluent doesn't meet
the state criteria for wetlands disposal.
During, the evaluation or the cunt per household for the two alter -
find
5� nd land spreading; several factors
netivrte; marshland disposal
weren't considered.
Theme factors are:
a. The potential c,u+t fur rentorinp, the area's water.
b. Land acquisition will be costly initially. Property valuoa
are continually increasing. The city would have a piece of
land increasing in value. Further delays in land purchase
means a larger cost: to the c.ity'n taxpayers. A prime example S'
is the Lake Tohopekaliga Calamity and the cost to remedy
their problem.
c. Certain forage crops for cattle, etc., may be grown to defer
the total cost for land.
6. Recently, a biologist for the. Fresh 'dater Fish and Game Commission
concluded a study stating, that the 22,?50 acre Lake Tohopekaliga on
the Kissimmee chain will probably suffer s Lake Apopka like collapse
within the next decade. Lske Tohopekalign hen 11,500 acres Of

Memo to: City Council
From: City Manager
Subject: Street- Closing Request
Date: June 20, 1980
We have received a request from Richard Reynolds to close a portion
of street right of way around Lake Dot (see attached map).
?u
This request• is being made since Mr. Reynolds wishes to develop
this property and believes that the right of way should be elimin-
ated to allow for the full potential use of this property. They
are planning to construct twenty four apartment units in this area.
Since this property has access from Fifth and Juniata streets,
they do not need street access from the R.O.W. However, the City
has a sewer line in this R.O.W., and if it is closed the City
must retain a Utility easement around the sewer line.
Section 19-2of the City Code of-Ordinancesrequires- the City to..._._
close streets by ordinance.

Memo to: City Connell.
From: City Manager
Subject: Transition Zones and Sign Ordinance
DaL•e: June 19, 1980
Enclosed is Ordinance No. 206-C as amended by the Planning and 'Zoning Commission.
This Ordinance reflects the change in the Blue Goose Property from R-3 Multiple
Family to I-Induntrial, and the Ball Cernmics properly from I -Industrial to 11-3
Multiple Family.
An we have di8cussed,in June of 1969, the City established three 'Transition Zones
as part of: the City's Zoning Ordinance. The purpose of these Transition Zones
were to allow existing Uses within these zones to remain for a period of fifteen
years, after which time all Uses were to conform with the requirements of the
R-3 Multiple Family Zone.
This means that in June of 1984, all of the Uses in the Transition Zones must
conform to the Uses permitted in the Multiple Family Zone. This does not allow
for the Industries and Businesses presently located within these 'Zones, many of
-- - -- which have been expanded or improved since.1969. ±.
It is the intent of this Ordinance to remove the Transition Zones from the Zoning
Ordinance, and rezone those properties in a manner that would reflect the highest
and best Use in our community.
SIGN ORDINANCE
All Council members have previously received a copy of Ordinance No. 207-C
which establishes the City Sign Regulations as a separate code from the Zoning
Ordinance. This has several advantages in that it would allow us to place the
code in an easily readable format that makes the Sign Code much easier to'
understand than breaking the code up under all of the various Zoning Districts.
The other major revisions are that the Off Premise Signs Provisions have been
clarified to only allow such signs on vacant property. Off -site signs sixty-
four (64) square feet in area or less must be a minimum of 200' from any other
off -site signs on the same side of the street. Off -site signs greater than
64 square feet must be 1,000 feet from any other off -site sign.
The Ground Sign Provisions were also modified to allow Ground Signs lower than
9' in height to be located in front of the building setback line.. However, these
signs cannot exceed 32 square feet in area and must not be closer to the street
than one-half of the required front yard setback.
If any Council member has any questions on either of the above Ordinances, please
feel free to contact me.
Respectfully,
George D.UForbes
City Manager

Subject:
Amendment to Subdivision Ordinance
Date:
June 19, 1980
At the May 27th City Council Meeting, the Council directed the Planning and
Zoning Commission to review the feasibility of roadside swales, and recom-
mend a change in the Subdivision Ordinance that would net• parameters for
the possible use of swales as opposed to curb and gutter streets. Presently
the Subdivision Ordinance requires curb and gutter streets, and swales are
not allowed.
The Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended that the enclosed Ordin-
ance be adopted.
This Ordinance would amend the City's Subdivision Ordinance to allow
roadside swales upon approval of the City Council providing soil conditions
and topography, etc. warranted their use.
