VARIANCE REQUEST: LEWIS AND CLARA CARROLL
Council, sitting as a Board of Adjustment, considered a request by Lewis and Clara
Carroll for a Variance to Section 26-23 (C)(2) (11-3 RESIDENTIAL PROFESSIONAL DIS'TRIC'T-
LOT 14ID'TII REQUIREMENTS) of the Zoning Ordinance to allow for construction of a duplex
on their property described as the West 50' of Lots 1, 2, and 3, East 1/2 of Lot 7 in
City Block 74 (vacant lot on south side of Juniata Street between 7th Street and Lake
Avenue). Mr. John Apetz, representing the Carroll's, appeared before Council in
support of the request. He advised that the property in question has a lot width of
75 feet as when it was platted many years ago, and therefore could not meet the
existing code requirement of 100 feet in lot width at the building setback line for
duplexes without benefit of a variance, although all other requirements of the zoning
- ordinance could be met. He further advised that the abutting properties on. .either side
_....:.___..
had been improved with single family dwellings, and of the location of two duplexes on
adjacent property across the street. Ile still furtter opined that the area lends
itself to multi -family dwellings, and is properly zoned to provide for them. Inquiry
was made from the Chair as to anyone present who desired to address the matter, and
there being none, motion was made by Councilmen Schroedel, seconded by Mayor_ Smoak and
unanimously carried that the request be granted.
VARIANCE REQUEST: ROBERT D. THOMPSON
Council, sitting as a Board of Adjustment, considered a request by Robert D. Thompson
for a Variance to Section 26-20 (C)(2) (R1A URBAN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT - LOT 14IDTH
REQUIREMENTS) of the Zoning Ordinance in order to construct a residence on Lot 28,
Clermont Heights Subdivision ( a vacant lot on the east side of Bowman Street between
Lake Shore Drive and Minnehaha Avenue). Mr. Thompson appeared before Council in
support of his request, and advised that the property could not be built upon without
benefit of a variance due to the 100' lot width requirement at the building setback
line, and the property in question being 75' x 192'. He further advised that all
other requirements of the zoning ordinance could be met, and of the existence of
other 75' frontage lots currently developed in the immediate neighborhood. Inquiry was
made from the Chair as to anyone present who desired to address the matter, and there
being none, motion was made by Councilman Schroedel, seconded by Councilman Byrd and
unanimously carried that the request be granted.
STREET CLOSING: BROOME STREET
City Manager Forbes advised of a petition by Mr. Aubrey Pitman for the closing and
permanently abandoning of that portion of un-opened Broome Street between East Avenue
and the State's Water Retention Pond in the Oakhill Cemetery area. Mrs. H. Forrest
Kimball, representing Mr. Pitman, appeared before Council to advise the request was
based on a desire to enlarge their yard area, and to be able to control the property
in question in order to keep it improved. She further advised that the portion from
Bast Avenue to the cemetery area had been maintained by them and the other abutting
property owner, Mr. Tanney, for several years. Inasmuch as closing this portion of
Broome Street would eliminate access to 6 buildable lots abutting the street on the
south should they be sold off at some future date, and inasmuch as the street could be
utilized at some future date as an additional rear access entrance to the cemetery
motion was made by Mayor Smoak, seconded by Councilman Byrd and unanimously carried that
the request be denied,

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT: EARL KIRKLAND
city Manager Forbes advised of a request by Mr. Earl Kirkland for ❑ Conditional Use
Permit- to utilize the existing buildings at 732 Montrose Street (Lots 8 and 10, City
Block 80; C2 Zone) for the operation of a retail decorator supply store and custom
cabinet and furniture construction; That the P&Z Commission, in Public hearing held
on June 5, 1979, had considered the matter and unanimously recommended that the
request be granted subject to the following conditions:
1. No undesirable odors or loud noise shall be heard outside the building.
Any such odors or noise that creates a nuisance to abutting property
owners shall constitute prima facie evidence that this condition has
been violated;
2. That the loading/unloading of manufacturing materials be confined
to the rear of the building;
3. That all materials, manufacturing, retailing, and storage be held
within a completely enclosed building; -
4. That all applicable regulations and ordinances be met;
5. That the use not be expanded except with a Conditional Use Permit; and,
6. Tilat a Certificate of Occupancy be issued only after all Conditions
are met.
In addition to the conditions as recommended by the P&Z Commission, it was the recom-
mendation of Mayor Smoak that the follwoing provisions be included in the CUP, and the
matter be tabled until the next regular meeting for consideration:
1. Layout of the property with dimensions to show the areas that will
be used for the different types of businesses;
2. Specific plan of action as far as addressing the appearance of the
building; and,
3. Specific plan for landscaping the open area.
Inquiry was made from the Chair as to anyone present who desired to address the matter.
Mr. Jim Hanks, dba flanks Electric Company in the same business district area, urged
Council's favorable consideration of the request. A communication was read from Mr.
Vincent Fechtel, also an adjacent business owner, wherein he advised of no objection
to the request. Mr. Kirkland advised Council that, although he did not have specific
plans in writing as to improvements of the property, they could be assured of sub-
stantial improvements to be made to conform with the decor of existing businesses in
the area, and to protect his investment. Councilman Byrd opined that inasmuch as the
landscape ordinance does not address itself to the central business district, and
inasmuch as the P&Z Commission had unanimously recommended approval of the request
with certain conditions, he was in favor of granting the request without additional
conditions as suggested by Mayor Smoak. Councilman Byrd thereupon moved that the
P&z Commission's recommendation be accepted and the request be granted. The motion
was seconded by Councilman Schroedel and carried.
GASOLINE
City Manager Forbes advised of notice received from the City's gasoline distributor of
possibility of running out of supply by the 18th-20th of the month, and he would be
watching the situation closely in order to instigate contingency plans if it becomes

COMIENTS:
The Carrolls request this variance because they believe this area
does not• lend itself to single family development-. This property
abutts single family homes, although the property directly across
the street consists of a duplex and apartment.
This property meets all the zoning requirements to build a

is required for a single family home in an R-3 zone.
The views of adjacent property owners should also be taken
into the consideration of this request.

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 ( ), Alter ( ), Construct (X ), Move and Place ( ), a (sign) building
on lot/sW 50, of Lots 1,2,3, F1,; of Lot 7 , Block 74
Subdivision City of Clermont Address Juniata St. ,Zone__
Section of Code 26-22 in the City of Clermont, Florida.
The reason given by the Building Official for the decision in refusing to issue a
building permit is:
According to R3 Zone the property width at building line must be 100 ft.
My appeal to your Board is based on my contention that this decision creates a
hardship on me for the following reason, or reasons:
Icy lot has a width dimension of 75 £t. with a depth of 150Rft. This property
because
rrant itself
of its proximity to Highway 50 and its location in g does
not to single family development. I therefore, request that this variance may be granted so
that a duplex may be constructed thereon.
Seven (7) copies of all necessary floor plans, plot plans, and other pertinent infor-
mation are attached hereto, on paper size 8s1" 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.

To consider a request by Mrs. Edna Bradley for a variance to Section 26-12
(Lot size and occupancy) of the Zoning Ordinance in order. to..utilize L6t.28,jess thp..
E 15 feet of the N 22 feet, Clermont Heights Subdivision, having a frontage on Bowman
Street of 75 feet, as a buildable lot containing 14,295 square feet. There was
no one present who commented on the request. Mrs. Bradley had advised that it was
her intention at the time she built her residence in 1948 to utilize only the
north 15 feet of Lot 28 and all of Lot 27 as the residence site, thus leaving the,
remainder as a buildable lot, and, that she had had the property surveyed
in 1965 to substantiate this, but could not locate the survey. It was the
opinion of Councilman Beals that to grant this request would be setting a precedent
for allowance of 75 foot building lots in an R1A Zone and that until such time as
a survey is located and submitted, the matter should be tabled. It was the
opinion of Councilman Smoak that the variance should be granted inasmuch as
he could not see how such a variance would in any way be detrimental to abutting
property owners. Motion was made by Councilman Smoak, seconded by Councilman
Schroedel and carried that the variance be granted. Councilman Beals voted Naye on the
motion.
City Manager Hopkins reported as follows:
That the Exchange Bank of Clermont had inquired as to the city's intentions of
purchasing one of their drive-in windows at a cost of $500.00. Councilman Beals
advised that it was his utlimate goal for Council to purchase the Exchange Bank
building and use it as the City Hall. Councilman Schroedel advised that he hoped
Council would see fit to purchase the Exchange Bank building and use it for Cooper
Memorial Library. Motion was made by Councilman Schroedel that the city purchase one
of the drive-in windows from the Exchange Bank to be used at City Hall. The motion
died for lack of a second.
City Manager Hopkins further reported that the outstanding bills from Leesburg Armature
and Orange Electric Company which had been referred to Michael s=Stiggins, Inc. for
collection under Bumby and Stimpson's insurance carrier had never been honored and
it was his recommendation that these be paid by the city in the interim inasmuch
as the repair work was dnnr by aarh in anod faith.

SUBJECT: proponad Cloning of Broome SL'reat
DATE: June B, 1979
We have received a request from Aubrey Pitman that Broome Street be closed between
East Avenue and Drew Avenue (the State WnLLr Retention Pond).
Closing a street requires careful consideration that Lila property In not, and will.
not be needed for access 1n the future. Th1.s portion of Broome Street hnn never been
opened.
I have investigated this property, and found that the lots abutting the South side of
Broome Street could possibly be developed at a later date. Ilowever, due to topographic
and site conditions, this 1s unlikely. In addition, at least 30 feet of right-of-
way is necessary for the rear access to the cemetery.
I recommend that if this request is granted, only the North and South 15' of Broome
Street be closed. This would still leave 30 feet of right-of-way for rear access into
the Cemetery for future use by the Public Works Department. In addition, any property
closed by the City should be under the condition of a permanent utility easement.
Respectfully, ice. 7

ItR(QUI{S'r FOIt Nl1ANGE, OF Z(INf.NG
OWNER:
Leonard II. Baird
PROPERTY:
Lots 4, 5, and 6; Highland 'Terraces
LOCATION:
The cant side of. Fifth Street and 160 feet south of Chestnut
Street.
ZONING:
R-1 Single Family
REQUEST:
Rezone the above property from 11-1 single family, to R-2 Medium
Density Residential District.
Mr. Baird rcqucsLs the rezoning in order to build duplexes on
this property.
COMMENTS:
Any rezoning should be consistent with the City's Comprehensive
Plan which sets standards for areas zoned Medium Density Residential.
The Plan states that• suitable area for Medium Density residential
development are:
1. Areas comprised of large undeveloped lots, particularly
if they are located adjacent to major thoroughfares.
2. Areas between low density development and high density
residential or commercial areas.
3. Areas already developed medium density residential.
The Comprehensive Plan also states that medium and high density
development should be encouraged in close proximity to major
thoroughfares and neighborhood shopping centers.
The property to the north of these lots is also undeveloped and
presently zoned R-2 Medium Density. This property is one black
from the Highway 50 and Fifth Street stop light. The area just
across Chestnut Street at this location is zoned C-1 and presently
occupied by small commercial enterprises.
This property does meet the general requirements of a Medium Density
zone in that it is a large undeveloped area close to a major
thoroughfare and neighborhood commercial areas. If duplexes were.
constructed on this property, they would also serve somewhat as a
buffer between low density residential and higher density commercial
areas.
Mr. Baird presently owns lots 1, 2, and 3, which is located to the north of
this property. If the above property were rezoned he would then have
enough front footage to build three duplexes facing Fifth Street. a
PREVIOUS:
ACTION: The P&Z Commission at the May 1, 1979 meeting voted unanimously to
approve this rezoning request.
