VARIANCE REQUEST: _MR. & MRS. GUY C. SHELTON
Council, sitting as a Board of Adjustment, considered a request of
Mr. & Mrs. Guy C. Shelton for a Variance to Section 26-21 (E)(2) of the
Zoning Ordinance in order to extend and screen an existing patio on
their property described as:
Lot 27 and S 1/2 of Lot 28
Highland Estates Subdivision
(1340 Ryan Street)
City Manager Forbes advised the desired variance is for a side yard
variance from 7.5' required, to 11, in order to construct an 8' x 17'
screened porch. Mr. John Shelton, representing his parents, appeared
before Council in support of the request,. and advised the desire was
to construct a screened porch of sufficient size to accomodate an
outdoor living area for his parents who are quite elderly; That there
is an existing fence and natural screening between the proposed con-
struction site and the immediate neighbor that would be affected; That
there were no window or door openings on the adjacent property which
CITY OF CLERMONT
MINUTES
would face the proposed construction, and, That the i.mmodiato noighbor
in question had no objection to the proposed construction. Inquiry
was made from the Chair as to anyone p.ronent who derAred to address
the matter, and there was none. Mayor Smoak advised of a communication
to Council from John Dormer, an abutting property owner., who advised
of no objection to the request. Councilman Schrocdel opined of no
nhioction to enlarning an existing patio slab, and thereupon moved that
It• was the consensus of Mayor Smoak and Councilmen Byrd anc Moginicy
that an exceptional and unique hardship as required for granting of
variance had not been established, and to grant the request would be
setting a precedent for allowing other property owners in the area to
place structures within one foot of property lines, which they felt
would be in opposition to the philosophy intended at the time the
existing zoning ordinances were adopted. Followinj a roll call vote
nassacre of the motion, the result•was- Ayes: Sc roe c ,n7 Co e. Tot
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Mayor Smoak announced the second of two required Public Hearings to
consider the Second Part of the City's proposed Comprehensive Plan.
City Manager Forbes orally reviewed the proposed Plan which includes
Conservation, Potable Water, Sanitary Sewer, Drainage, intergovernmental
Coordination, and Economic Feasibility. Following inquiry from the
Chair, there was no one present who desired to address the matter, ---
whereupon Councilman Schroedel introduced AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF
CLERMONT, LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA, ADOPTING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR
THE CITY OF CLERMONT, AS REQUIRED BY THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMPREHENSIVE
PLANNING ACT OF 1975, and the Ordinance was read for a first reading
by City Clerk Carroll, by title only.
ADVANCED ACCOUNTING MACHINE
City Manager Forbes advised of a communication to Council from Burroughs
Corporation relative to their offer of sale of an advanced accounting
system and equipment, but inasmuch as the City Staff is still in the
process of analyzing various other systems and equipment, he did not
have a recommendation to submit at this time. The communication was
acknowledged by Council, and the matter referred to the City Manager.
EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCIL
City Manager Forbes advised of a great deal of work on sewer and
water plans and regional planning in this area as conducted by the
ECRFPC, which is of particular interest to citizens in this area, but
as presently exists, the City does not have a voting voice on the
Council, and he queried as to their desire to have a representative
meet with them to discuss the benefits and advantages of becoming a
member of the Council. Mayor Smoak opined of possible interest due
to the Water Quality Study which has just been initiated, and the
absence of a voting member from Lake County on the Council, which
Council, controls a great deal of revenue funds submitted from the
Environmental Protection Agency. Mayor Smoak further advised of his
request to the Council as to the procedures and costs involved in
joining, and submitted their reply for public record. The communication
from Mr. Cliff Guillet, Executive Director, was read in its entirety
by City Clerk Carroll, is attached hereto, and becomes a part of
these Minutes. Due to the required approximate cost of $1100 in
initiation fees, the $1000 annual dues, and particularly the require-
ment that one of two members be a member of the City Council, Mayor
Smoak inquired of Council's desire to pursue the matter. Motion was
made by Councilman Byrd that the City Manager be instructed to invite
CITY OP CLERMONT
MINUTES
Executive Director Guillet• to make a presentation to the Ci.
CASUAL AND LIABILITY INSURANCE:
Finance Director Sanchez advised of his review of the proposal of
Risk Management Services, Inc. regarding a pooled self-insurance con-
cept; That he felt such concept is worthy of future consideration,
but inasmuch as it is not comparable to the City's current coverage,
he would recommend that the City continue to carry casualty and
liability insurance with the Aetna Insurance Company through the
local Olivenbaum Agency. Council was in agreement that the appropriate
action as recommended by Mr. Sanchez be referred to him and City
Manager Forbes.
INTERFUND LOAN
Finance Diiector Sanchez advised that the Sanitation Fund which was
established at the beginning of this fiscal year is slowly building up
a cash reserve, but presently does not have sufficient funds to pay
its share of insurance premiums estimated at $14,000 which fall due
early in the fiscal year, and he recommended that authorization be
granted for the General Fund to loan to the Sanitation Fund up to
$14,000 at no interest, which would be repaid as funds become avail-
able, probably in the first half of the fiscal year. Motion was made
by Councilman Byrd seconded by Councilman Meginley and unanimously
carried that the Finance Director's recommendation be accepted and
the loan be authorized.
AREA OF CRITICAL STATE CONCERN
Mayor Smoak advised that the Governor and Cabinet had agreed with the
decisions and recommendations of the Department of State Planning in
removing approximately 9200 acres immediately south of the City from
the designated Area of Critical State Concern.
EFFLUENT DISPOSAL AND WATER QUALITY STUDY
Mayor Smoak reported on his presentation to Messrs. Forsgren and Darst
of the Bureau of Land and Water Management in Tallahassee recently
concerning the preliminary reports of the Marshland Study and the Water
Quality Study at which time they had expressed a very positive
attitude toward both projects, and had voluntarily agreed to participate
in the Water Quality Study in those areas that they can, and will appoint
a member to the Technical Advisory Committee to serve in that capacity.
INSURANCE POOL
Mayor Smoak advised of a request from the Florida League of Cities for
him to serve as an interim member of the new liability insurance pool,
which he had accepted to serve until such time as the City takes action
to participate or not to participate.
STATE LEAGUE OF CITIES ANNUAL CONVENTION
Mayor Smoak reminded Council of the Annual State League of Cities
Convention to be held in Kissimmee the latter part of October, and
urged that reservations be made early due to limited accomodations
resulting from a previously scheduled other convention at the same
location. He further advised of a particular program of interest to
Council that will be held on Friday afternoon at the convention which
is entitled "Small Cities Problems".

PIs'1'(;R POOL PARK
:It was the recommendation of Councilman Scliroede]. that the matter of
pursuing acquisition of PeL•or Pool Park in order that it might be
improved as a Public Park, be instigated. it was the suggestion of
Mayor Smoak, and Council was in agreement, that the matter be referred
to City Manager Forbes for investigation and recommendation in con-
junction with the principals involved, for report back to Council.
JUNK YARD SCREENING
Councilman Schroedcl inquired of the status of requiring that the junk-
yard on Minneola Avenue be fenced. City Attorney Baird advised the
principals had been advised of the necessary fencing in order to comply
with existing ordinances, and he had been negotiating with their
Attorneys for quite some time. He further advised that at such time
he feels a complete impasse exists, he will request the necessary action
from Council to pursue the matter in court.
WEST ORANGE FARMWORKERS HEALTH ASSOCIATION
City Clerk Carroll read a communication from Ms. Tomasa Vurnes,
Administrative Aide of the West Orange Farmworkers Health Association,
wherein she solicited Council's favor and endorsement in their efforts
to establish a satellite clinic in Groveland which would serve the
needs of the rural poor and migrant farmworkers in South Lake County
_ and be deisgnated as the "SOUTH LAKE FARMWORKERS HEALTH CENTER". Council'
was in agreement to the need for such a facility in South Lake County,

GERMAN CONSULATE AID
City Clerk Carroll read a communication from Hannes K. Mittermayr,
Honorary Consul of the Federal Republic of Germany, wherein he advised
of a German Consulate in St. Petersburg to serve the needs of people
in Lake County whom might seek help from a German Consulate, and he
requested that this information be forwarded to the City Staff.
CLERMONT PENSION PLANS
Messrs. Jim View and Terry Rogers, representatives of Sun Bank, the
trustee of the City's employees pension plans, and Dr. Russell Fogler,
pension plan consultant from the University of Florida, appeared before
Council to apprise them of the assets existing in the City's Police
Plan, Fireman's Plan, and General Employees Plan, and to advise of the
various investments made to attain them. Dr. Fogler advised that he
was in agreement with the performance of the pension funds trustees
in their investments as guided by his investment objectives.
REQUEST FOR BOAT DOCK
City Manager Forbes advised of a request by Mr. Robert Paxton to con-
struct a boathouse of property opposite his home at 390 Lake Shore Drive
on which he holds a valid easement from the City, but which requires
prior plan approval by the City Council. Inasmuch as a response has
not been received from all affected property owners along Lake Shore
Drive regarding the proposed method to establish the Lake Shore Drive
right-of-way, and acknowledging the need for a conclusion to the
problem, it was the suggestion of Mayor Smoak, and Council was in
agreement, that City Attorney Baird, in conjunction with City Manager
Forbes, be instructed to prepare a firm recommendation for affirmative
action by Council at the next regular meeting, and that the request

Dear City Council Members:
Your community's continuing growth pattern and your desire to offer
expanded customer service have emphasized the need to update your
present accounting system.
We wish to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing us to
review your present system and to offer our systems and equipment
recommendation to meet your community's expanding needs. - -
We also wish to extend our special appreciation to Mr. Thomas Sanchez
for his cooperation and assistance during our analysis and recommedation
process.
Although Mr. Sanchez's decision to relocate has momentarily interrupted
this process, we wish to re-emphasize our desire to serve the data
processing needs of your community. '
The price quoted to Mr. Sanchez is a special offer extended to the
City of Clermont for the month of September only. We negotiated this
price in order to meet the amount you budgeted for a system. We wish,:;]
to emphasize that now is the most beneficial time for your community
to invest in a computer system. This price can be secured by placing
an order in September with delivery and installation dates designated
according to your demands.
Your approval of our proposal will enable us to begin an orderly and
early installation of the proposed system so that your city will begin
to receive the benefits we know will accrue to you.
Sincerely yours,

APPLICANT
NAME:_ MrrG Mru, GUYC. Shelton
ADDRESS: 1.340 Ryan Street
Gentlemen:
Having posted the necessary $25.00 appeal fee with the City Clerk, I hereby make
application to your Board for relief from a decision of the Building Official of the City
of Clermont, whereby I was refused permission to:
Repair ( ),Add to (xx), Alter ( ), Construct ( ), Move and Place ( ), a IM building
on lot/s_ Lot 27 and South 1/2 of Lot 28 Block--------
Subdivisionilighland Estates, Address 1340 Ryan Street ,Zone R-1
I
Section of Code 26-21 (R1-URBAN RESIDENTIAL) in the City of Clermont, Florida.
The reason given by the Building Official for the decision in refusing to issue a
building permit is:
Section 26-21 (E)(2) Requires seven.,and one-half foot side
yard. Request will penetrate six and one-half feet into required
side yard. Screened area will be 8' x 171.
My appeal to your Board is based on my contention that this decision creates a
hardship on me for the following reason, or reasons:
A screened area is desired and this is the only feasible place in
which to place it. There is existing, a shadow box fence and a maximum
amount of natural vegetation between contiguous property. We have the
neighbor's permission.
Seven (7) copies of all necessary floor plans, plot plans, and other pertinent infor-
mation are attached hereto, on paper size 8!i' x 14" minimum size.
I submit that I qualify for this variance because I have an exceptional and unique
hardship on my particular parcel of land that is not shared by property owners in my area.
A strict application of the zoning ordinance deprives me of the reasonable use of my land
and the granting of this variance will not alter the essential character of the area.
I have been notified that this Variance Application must be filed with the City Clerk
no later than 5:00 P.M. on Friday, two (2) weeks prior to the Council meeting at which time
Variance will be considered. I also understand that when any variance is granted, construction
of the structure must be completed within one year from date of grant.

Dear Mr. Smoak:
It has come to my attention that apparently you and your
staff are not aware of the existence of a German Consulate
in St. Petersburg.
I have been appointed Honorary Consul of the Federal Republic
of Germany in 1976, and my office is serving 16 counties in
West/Central Florida including yours.
It would be appreciated if you would inform your staff about
this fact as people seeking help from a German Consulate in
your county are now under my jurisdiction and no longer have
to go to Atlanta or Miami.
very truly yours,
Hannes K. Mitt e

Dear Mayor Smoake and City Councilmen:
The West Orange Farmorker Helath Association is a non profit organization
formed to meet the needs of the rural poor, seasonal and migrant farm —
workers. In addition we serve that part of our population who can no
longer afford health care for various reasons: Inflation, lack of
adequate health insurance and those who cannot perhaps express there
health needs adequately in English.
We would deeply appreciate your passing a resolution in favour of our
satellite clinic to be opened in Groveland sometime in October. It will
serve the medical needs of the migrant farmworker particulary and the needs
of our seasonal and rural poor. later if the need arises, we would be adding
Dental care.
The satellite clinic will be know as, The South lake Farmworker Health Center
of the West Orange Farmworker Health Association.
In setting up the new clinic in Groveland I have been most grateful for
my experience working for you at City Hall as a planning and zoning
technician. It certainly helped.in us being able to meet our projected
opening date early October.
Sincerly yours,
Ms. Tomasa E Vurnes

CITY OF CLERMONT
C014PRE[IENSIVP., PLAN SUI4MARY
The City of Clermont's Comprehensive Plan was prepared to meet- the
requirements of the Local Government Comprohonsive Planning Act of
1975. The purpose of the Comprehensive Plan is to guide the future
development of the City, and a brief summary of the Plan is as follows:
LAND USE ELEMENT i
The Clermont• future Land Use Plan .is designed to facilitate the
development of land in areas best• suited for development, and to
insure that these areas are subdivided according to minimum standards.
It discourages the use of land that is unsuitable for development.
Towards this end, the Plan was developed to encourage a future land
use pattern that achieves the most appropriate balance of private
market factors, public interest, and preservation of natural resources.
Standards were developed for residential and commercial areas that are
based on distance from major streets, utilities, impact on City
services, development of surrounding areas, and environmental impact.
These standards are designed to insure that abutting land uses are
compatible, and will not create problems with the neighbors.
HOUSING ELEMENT
Based on an opinion survey of Clermont residents, the following over-
all housing goal was formulated:
"Provide for a full range of housing choices, located
in a suitable living environment for all incomes,
races, and life styles."
To carry out this objective, the City will:
1. Continue the systematic enforcement of building
codes and related ordinances.
2. Provide the full range of community services and
facilities to meet the needs of residents.
3. Require new residential developments to be con-
ducive to economical public services, and prohibit
construction in flood prone areas, except as specified
by flood regulations.
TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT
t
The major goal of the Transportation Element is to continue the develop-
ment of a major street system that insures safe and efficient transpor-
tation. This system must adequately serve commercial, industrial and
MF
other. employment areas. it must also promote an efficient future
land use pattern with a minimum disruption of oxi.sting land user:.
To work toward this end the City will:
1. Discourage through -traffic in residential areas.
2. Nigh traffic areas, such as commercial districts
and schools, should be served with properly
designed streets.
i
3. Adequate parking regulations should be strictly
enforced.
RECREATION ELEMENT
The goal of the Recreation Element is to encourage the development
of public recreational facilities, and the preservation of open
spaces in response to the needs of the community.
The City will meet this goal by improving and expanding existing
facilities where needed throughout the community.
The City Recreation Committee is presently working to implement this
goal.
CONSERVATION ELEMENT
The Conservation Element is based upon maintaining Clermont's assets
and resources in a manner that will benefit present and future
residents of our City.
To this end, the City will support policies to protect and improve
air quality, water resources, wetlands, natural habitats, environ-
mentally sensitive areas, soil resources, and agriculture.
Since the problems of conservation do not stop at the city limits, the
City will work with the County and other agencies to insure that the
natural resources of the community are not lost.
ELECTRIC UTILITIES ELEMENT
Florida Power Corporation provides electrical service to the City of
Clermont. The Electric Utilities Element is included to insure the
provision of reliable electric service to existing and future develop-
ments in Clermont.
This can be accomplished by cooperation between the City of Clermont
and Florida power Corporation to insure that:
1. Reliable sources of energy will be available.
2. The location of future electrical utilities will not
adversely affect land use patterns.
2
3. Conservation measures will be supported to maximize
the moot efficient utilization of electricity.
SANITARY SEWER, POTABLE WATER, DRAINAGE, AND SOLID WASTE ELEMENTS
These elements are designed to insure that the City can continue to
provide adequate potable water supply, treatment of sewage, solid waste
collection, and drainage.
Water:
The City water supply is provided by the Seminole and Grand Highway
Wells. The combined capacity of the wells is approximately three
million gallons per day. While these wells are adequate to meet the
City's present needs, the city's entire distribution system and future
well sites must be analyzed to insure that .future water requirements
can be met.
In working towards this end, the City has and should continue to:
1. Schedule an engineering study of the water system.
2. Support the Regional "208" Study to identify sources
of bacterial contamination of the underground acquifer.
3. Encourage conservation practices.
Sewer:
The Wastewater Treatment Plant was constructed in 1972. The design
capacity of the Plant is 600,000 gallons of flow per day. Currently
the Wastewater Plant is being operated under temporary operating
permits issued by the Lake County Pollution Control Department and
State agencies. In January, 1980, the City will be required to choose
a waste treatment alternative between land or marsh application of
treated effluent.
To assist us in making this decision, the University of Florida is
completing a two-year study on the marshland alternative that should
be complete by the end of September.
If the City continues to grow at its present rate, the peak daily
demand of the Treatment Plant will be approaching capacity around
1985. However, the Treatment Plant was engineered to allow an addition
to be easily constructed to double the design capacity.
Solid Waste:
The City of Clermont provides for twice weekly pickups of garbage
generated by households and small commercial establishments. About 60
commercial businesses are serviced by a private hauler, Dump -All, Inc.
of Orlando. Soild waste is disposed in a sanitary landfill on
Loghouse Road, one-half mile east on SR561. Lake County operates the
landfill which serves the South Lake County area.
3
Tile recommendations of thin clement include:
I, The City of: Clermont should continuo to operate a
solid wauLc collection program serving all residents.
2. The City should support the Lake County Solid Waste
Disposal Program, and investigate opportunities for
recycling where feasible.
Drainage:
The Drainage Element involves the development of adequate facilities
and legal mechanisms to control surface water runoff. Lake County has
developed detailed drainage studies for the County.
The recommendations of the Drainage Element include:
1. Reviewing City regulations designed to control
surface water to insure that they are satisfactory.
2. Examine Flood Plain Regulations to protect residents
from flood waters, and determine what, if any,
improvements would be necessary to control storm
water drainage.
INTERGOVERNMENTAL COORDINATION AND ECONOMIC PEASIDILITY ELE14ENTS
Intergovernmental Coordination:
Intergovernmental Coordination as proposed by the Comprehensive Plan
is to insure the coordination with other units of local governments
in Plan preparation and implementation. This involves an open line
of communication with other governmental agencies, as well as insuring
citizen participation in our Plan.
Economic Feasibility:
Economic Feasibility is an important consideration in any Comprehensive
Plan. Much of the recommendations in the Plan can be accomplished
through legal mechanisms and coordination as land use, housing, con-
servation, electric utilities, and intergovernmental coordination.
Insuring adequate water, sewer, drainage, and transportation will be
accomplished by a combination of capital expenditures and regulations.
The Comprehensive Plan recommends that the City consider long-term
capital improvements programs.
