ORDINANCE NO. 356-M City Manager Forbes explained this ordinance would set new rates for water and sewer service effective June 1, 1980. He stated the new water rates are based on the fact the water rates can no longer subsidize the sewer system, mentioning the sewer rates would need to be increased again once the new sewer system is initiated. There was much discussion on the need for these rate increases, and that it might be best to delay the rate change until the City had more infor- mation on the type sewer system improvements that will be required in the near future. It was.. also stated the City Manager should prepare a new Utility Assessment Charge for new construction along with the rate increases, to insure era the City's growth pays its own way. r A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN THOMAS, SECONDED BY -COUNCILMAN BYRD THAT ORDINANCE N0. 356-M BE TABLED. 80 62 n -2- CITY OF CLENtONT MINUTES ORDINANCE 206-C TRANSITIO'I ZONE AMENDMENTS City Manager Forbes explained the Planning and Zoning Commission has been reviewing the City Zoning Ordinance and map the last two years.

The three transition zones were reviewed and explained that the P & Z believed it was time to change and rezone this property to conform to the City's current zoning classifications. Each Zoning District was considered individually with public comment on the introduction. The M-1 District, affecting Clermont Builders Supply and other businesses was discussed with comment from Mr. Wolfe, relating he was in agreement with the Planning and Zoning Commission recommendations.

There was discussion on the M-1 recommendation for the area of the Bell Ceramics property. Mr. Jacob Lukas related he was in favor of the Planning and Zoning Commission recom- mendation of zoning the area M-1, rather than remaining R-3. It was clarified that under the R-3, multiple family zoning, Bell Ceramics would be able to continue its present business for an unlimited period of time but could not be expanded. Under M-1 Industrial zoning, an industrial plant could be built or expand if the floor area were 7,000 square feet in area or less. Larger structures would require a Condi- tional Use Permit. The Industrial zone also allows general commercial uses as permitted in the C-2 General Commercial Zoning District. It was further clarified that if the Bell Ceramics Building burned under the R-3 zoning it would not be possible to construct a new manufacturing building at this site. Mr. Jacob Lucas informed the council that he strenuously objected to rezoning the Bell Ceramics property to any district other than M-1 Industrial.

Since the Clty of Clermont has agreed to become a part of the Regional Planning Councils District for Law Enforcement Assistance Funding (LEAA),we are eligible for Lake County Funding under this program. We have received a pre -application for LEAA Funding from the Council, and believe it is in the City's interest to submit a pre -application for police radio consoleequipment and a separate radio frequency for Police use. The total cost of such n system would be approximately $20,000, and 95% of the costs would be paid by Federal Funds. If there are no Council objections, we will proceed with the pre -application. liven if Lice funds were approved, the Clty could still refuse Grant Funding. BUILDING DEPARTMENT.

Justice Improvetnmtt System. During thin meotLm,l, several ci.l:ies were represented rugtlosting feuds for assistance in law luformation. During this meeting, [ rliscussad the City of Cle nnout's need for improved radio communications for the police Department. I explained that; our system now operates on a local government frequency. Ou this band', all city vehicles are on the same frequency. i feel that the time has come for the Police Department to have it's own police frequency for better law enforcement. During this time, I learned there would only be $28,000.00 allocated for the Criminal Justice system of Lake County including all cities. After I explained the cities CCquest, it was a concensus of opinion of most cities that were represented there that the city of: Clermont: should have top priority for it's request to update our communications system. If this ,rant should he approved, it. would mean we could be on our own police frequency plus a complete console operation in the radio room. The console would replace all the old equipment, desk etc., in the radio room and all radio operations would operate'from one panel. In today's model law enforcement, most cities do have a console type communications room. If you approve, sometime during the next week, the preappli.cation can be submitted, requesting these grant funds. The requested grant, if approved, would mean LEAA would fund 951, of the funds for this project, leaving the city to pay a total of 57.. Ij I estimate the total cost of the project at $20,000.00.

There fs ton property In the City II"'Itn zoned HLAA, find we do not contemplate any properly in the future or presently In rived of stio, zoning. The R1AA Zone provided for minimum lot sizes, of L5,000 square feet, and allowed only Single Family Renidencen. The hn!fic Intent of this dfs;n•lc.t was L' insure that as the City expanded, the City Zoning was connistant with the CounL•v Zoning outside of the City limits. Ilowcvcr, we have reviewed L)cls' mot ter and the Zoning in the County, and no longer hellev" that such a district Is necessary. We are also recommending that the R3A and R3 Zones he combined into nne Zone known as R-3. The R-3 Residential Professional District and R3A Townhouse Districts ;ire essentially the some Zones with one exception. The R3 Zone allows Professional Offices, but only as a Conditional Use. These two zones have been combined Into one zone that allows Professional Offices as a Conditional Use. The only other major change is that the lot width at the building setback line for duplexes was reduced from 100' to 75'. 4, Commercial Zones. C-1 - Neighborhood Commercial District. The Neighborhood Commercial District is intended for ;all neighborhood retnll. businesses that are located adjacent to residential neighborhoods. 'these Uses would be -permitted as long as they did not occupy more than 3,000 square feet or floor space. The. intent of this Zone is to allow for light retail services that would not he detrlinentul to abutting residences. This Zone would generally be located along major roads other than Highway 50 and 27, and should become particularly important as the City grows to the South. C-2 - General Commercial District. The General Commercial District is intended for full scale Retail Sales that service the needs of the entire community. Tho General Commercial Districts in and will continue to be properties that abut Ilighwaya 50 and 27. Retail Rusincan, Professional Offices, Autumotive Sales, 1(otals, Restaurants, and related Uses are allowed in this zone. PAgu 2 ' Prop000d Revisiona to City Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Dlntrlcto 5. Induntrial Dint,t;ta. The city Zoning Ordinance pronently provide" for two Indunrial Uletricta, one in at light, nod the other A medlum IndustrLal Dlntrict. We believe that the Lnterenta of the City could he better served by having only one Industrial Dintrlct.

The proposed Industrial Dlntrict permits Llgla manofncturing, annumbling or packng- Ing, lie long AS such work in conducted within n completely encloned building with a total maximum floor space of 7,000 square feet or lean, Other Uses or manufnc- turing plants greater than 7,000 square feet In nren could he Permitted an a Con- dltlonal Use, provided that they can ment the Conditional thin ntnndnrds ontnblltilled In the Ordinnnce. 6. Other Changes. Mobile Nome Parka. The minimum nine of A Melilla Home Park of one acre was established. Also, the setbnckn for Mobile llomen from A public street was revined to be consistent with other Zenon, The front ]nrd setback In 50' nn Highways 50 and 27, and 25 feat on other public ntreetn. Parking. The parking requlremeM.:: for single family homer have barn clarified to insure that adequate parking spaces are provided. 7. Sign Ordinance. The proposed Sign ordinance lien very few chanNan. The main recommendation of the Commission is to adopt the proposed Sign Code ordinance and separate it from the Zoning Ordinance. Thin had several advantages in that It would allow us to place the code in no easily readable format that makes the Sign Code much easier to understand than breaking the Code up under all of the various Zoning Dintricts. The other major revisions are that the Off Premise Signs Provisions have been clarified to only allow such signs in vacant property. Off -site sign-9 sixty - [our (64) square feat in area or less moot be a minimum of 200' from any other off -site signs on the sane aide of the street. Off -site sign❑ greater than 64 square feet must be 1,000 from any other off -site sign. The Ground Sign Provisions were also modified to allow Ground Slgnn lower than 9' it, height to be located in front of the building setback line. Ilewevcr, theca 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. Conclusion. The above revisions have been carefully considered by the Planning and Zoning commission asin the best interests of our community. :iWen in welcome public comment on these p ro orals. The Planning And Zoning an advisory body to the City Council. Final consideration of these proposed changes must be adopted by the City Council of the City of Clermont by ordinance.

The Ordinance is necessary since the City has approved the FmHA Loan in the amount of $1.7 Million Dollars for a new well, half million gallon storage tank, and transmission lines. This Ordinance increases the minimum charge for 3,000 gallons from $3 to $4, and the rate per thousand gallons of use from 50c, to 754. The new water rates are based on the fact that the water rates can no longer continue the $69,000 subsidy to the sewer system. However, the sewer system will still be subsidized in the amount of $59,000 from this years General Fund Budget. Since the sewer rates can no longer receive a subsidy from the water system, sewer rates for single family dwellings must be increased from $6.75 to $9.00 per month, and General businesses from $9.00 to $12.00 per month.

I would recommend that the low bid from Quaid Installation, Inc. be accepted of: $3.95 per ft., $190.00 for 12' gates, and $100 for 4' gates. The total cost of fencing Jaycee Beach would then be about $4,500, or $1,000 less than anticipated in the Recrea- tion Budget. We would also recommend that the low bid be accepted to include option one, or the fencing of the park in Orange Hill at $4.38 per foot, or an approximate cost• of $788.40. This is about $450 less than anticipated in the Recreation Committee's Budget. Respectfully, George D.

At this meeting the City Council must take formal action on the purchase of the old Exchange Bank building, since our option with the Bank states that the purchase must be closed by April 15, 1980. -- Before the closing can take place, the Bank will require a copy of the .. minutes of the meeting authorizing the purchase of the building, and a legal opinion from a neutral attorney, (an attorney other than the City Attorney), that the method of purchasing the building is legal and valid. Attached is a map showing the ownership of the properties that abut the Library property. I have placed an X thru the properties I believe that the City should consider purchasing for a future City Hall site. All of these properties are vacant with the exception of Lot 17.
