MINUTES Nn 1181 SE14INOLE WELL City Manager Tiffany reported on a March 6 letter from Mr. R. C. Rector, Dawkins and Associates, wherein he recommends releasing the $500 that was held back on the Seminole Well construction contract "since the well construction is now considered complete", and that lie concurred with Mr. Rector's recommendations. He further reported that Central Florida Underground should finish making the final connection to the well to the water distribution system, making minor corrections and testing the well under operating conditions by mid -April. Following inquiry from Councilman Cole regarding the length of guarantee on the well material and the subsequent effective date of the guarantee, motion was made by Council - DID AWARD: MINI -ATTACK FIRE TRUCK Mayor Smoak reported on bids received for a Mini -Attack Fire Pumper. After adjustments for options, the bids are as follows: Gator Emergency Vehicles, Seminole on PIERCE $26,095 W. Q. Dowling, Keystone Heights on EMERGENCY ONE $26,316 It was the recommendation of City Manager Tiffany and Fire Chief Smythe that the bid of W. Q. Dowling be accepted. Fire Chief Smythe cited exceptions taken by Gator Emergency Vehicles to the specifications, the most important being the configuration of storage compartments, namely side compartments, stating that approximate compartment sizes specified were determined by need for proposed and existing equipment. He further advised of an optional body which could be purchased to better meet specification for an additional $425 above the bid price, which would put the bid from Gator Emergency Vehicles $204 above the bid of W. Q. Dowling. 6 Mr. Glen Manning, representative of Gator Emergency Vehicles, appeared before the Council I expressing his desire to receive the bid award inasmuch as his company was apparent low k bidder, and in his opinion all specifications had been met. Following considerable discussion regarding specified compartment sizes and other details �1; of the equipment, Mayor Smoak opined that Fire Chief Smythe was more knowledgeable to the factors involved with this type equipment and so moved that the City Manager's and Fire t1 Chiefs recommendation be accepted. The motion was seconded by Councilman Honey and carried. Councilman Bvrd voted in the neaative on oassaoe of the motion because Gator 1� s opinion. LOT REOUIREMENTS City Manager Tiffany reported that the Planning and Zoning Commission, at their March 7 meeting, unanimously voted to recommend that the zoning regulations on lot size, lot width, lot area per family, lot coverage, and setbacks for single family dwellings in R2, R3, and R3A zones be changed to the same requirements as the R1 zones, that maximum allowable lot coverage in R1A zones be increased from 30% to 40%, that the front setback in R1A zones be reduced from 35' to 25', and that the front setback in RI zones be reduced from 30' to 25' because the Commission felt these recommended changes would aid the Council in reducing numerous variance requests. MINUTES NQ 142 During discussion of the recommendations, Councilman Schroedel expressed his disagree- ment with the recommended front yard setbacks for R1A zones, stating the existing minimum building line of dwellings in the R 1 A district would be reduced thus possibly devaluating the district. Mayor Smoak requested that City Manager Tiffany and City Attorney Baird review existing ordinances wherein construction in currently developed areas would be required to conform to an established building line. City Manager Tiffany cited a previous determination of the City Attorney wherein the lroposed and underepresentations would regulations tonalize buildingl��morreoperty units thanrs who would bevallowedcient underctheipous ro-, posed rules. Ile also said that a general rule of zoning is to maintain uniform regulations in each district so that special zoning regulations could not be applied to newly platted land only. It was the suggestion of Mayor Smoak, and Council was in agreement, to postpone further discussion pending a determination by the City Attorney wherein these recommendations would apply only to unplatted/new subdivisions in the city, and the determination be presented at the next regular meeting. SIGN REVISIONS City Manager Tiffany presented the unanimous recommendations of the Planning and Zoning, Commission regarding revisions to the sign ordinance, wherein Mayor Smoak suggested, and Council was in agreement, to postpone discussion to allow for sufficient study time for Council members, and the item be placed on the agenda for the next regular meeting. LOT MOWING Due to the time consuming and expensive procedure currently followed for private property lot mowing, City Manager Tiffany requested the aid of Council in reducing staff time spent on this task wherein the City would assume free mowing for all vacant parcels of land in the city. Following a determination by Council that a free mowing policy would cause an increased burden on the city inasmuch as more lots would be mowed, Mr. Harold. Machias appeared before the Council to express his desire to submit his name for a contractual agree- ment to mow property in the city. It was the suggestion of Mayor Smoak, and Council was in agreement, that this matter be referred back to the City Manager for further study; That an ordinance be prepared providing for published notice in place of mailed notice, to all property owners stating the necessity of and specified dates for mowing; That a fee schedule be prepared for Council's consideration covering all costs incurred by the city; That a list of all vacant property be furnished to Mr. Machias and other potential private contractors for their review and submission of a fee schedule; and That this matter be placed on the agenda for the Council's consideration at the next regular meeting. CUP REQUEST - MR. WILLIAM CAUSEY Mayor Smoak requested that inasmuch as Mr. William Causey and/or his representative was not present, City Manager Tiffany be instructed to contact Mr. Causey and inquire as to his intentions of pursuing his CUP request. RESOLUTIONS/ORDINANCES City Manager Tiffany presented a proposed Resolution for Council's consideration authorizing a fiscal officer to deposit and withdraw city funds under the newly -formed Local Government Trust Fund. Motion was made by Councilman Byrd, seconded by Council- man Hone that A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLERMONT LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA, DESIGNATING AN AUTHORIZED FISCAL OFFICER TO DEPOSIT AND WITHDRAW CITY FUNDS UNDER CHAPTER 218 FLORIDA STATUTES be adopted. The RESOLUTION was read in its entirety by Deupty Clerk Smith.

Total Ayes: Five. Nayes: None. So the ORDINANCE was adopted and the Number 110-M assigned to it. There being no further business to be brought before the Council at this time, the meeting was adjourned by Mayor Smoak at 9:30 P.M. CLAUDE E. SMOAK, JR. - MAYOR JAN St TH - DEPUTY CLERK TO: City Council FROM: City Manager SUBJECT: Mini -Pumper Bids DATE: March 10, 1978 Bids were opened in my office on February 23 for a Mini -Attack Fire Pumper as budgeted this year. After adjustments for options, the bids are as follows: Gator Emergency Vehicles, Seminole on PIERCE $26,095 W. Q. Dowling, Keystone Weights on EMERGENCY ONE $26,316 Our budget includes $20,000 for the pumper. We do not consider the above bids to be high. We simply did not budget enough, but funds to meet the bid price are available. The mini -pumper will be an important addition to our department as our primary, first -out vehicle. It will be adequate to handle 90% of - our fire calls. The attached memo from Fire Chief Smythe details price adjust- ments for options and recommends that the bid of W. Q. Dowling be accepted for what I believe are good reasons. I join the Fire Chief in recommending that the bid of W. Q. Dowling be accepted. der in ny cc: City Clerk (3/14/78 Agenda) TO: City Manager FROM: Fire Chief SUBJECT: Mini -Attack Pumper DATE: March 10, 1976 After review of the two bids received. I find very little difference in prices. After adjusting prices to the same formula, they should read as follows: PIERCE EMERGENCY ONE Base $24,733.00 Base $25,025.00 F.O.B. Seminole - 200.00 F.O.B. Ocala - 200.00 Option J-1, 2 Agent Option J-1, 2 Agent Foam System Foam System (Has specified 20 gal. (Incls. 2 - 20 gal. poly tank only) 1,733.00 Stainless tanks, extra cost 1 tank $240.00) 2,115.00 Option J-2, 1 3/4 Hose 30.00 Option J-2, 1 3/4 Hose 36.00 ,OU + 425.00** 2 ,095.00 *Due to the fact that we came in somewhat over budget, I feel that we can utilize some equipment (150' Booster hose and nozzle, axe, pike pole and folding ladder) from the Seagraves and save an additional $660.00 (E-1), $626.00 (Pierce). After further review of the specifications, I find two major exceptions taken by Pierce. The first being the substitution of a ten year guaranteed Fiberglass tank for the specified aluminum which would probably be satis- factory. The second and most important exception is the configuration of the compartments. The compartment height is considerably lower than specified. Even though the minimum total usable cubic feet was met, it was accomplished by providing a rear compartment twice as large as specified and reducing the size of side compartments. I realize this is one of their standard bodies, but it would not be acceptable due to the fact that approximate compartment sizes specified were determined by need for proposed existing equipment. **By literature furnished, they can furnish an optional body that would better meet specifications ($425.00). I therefore recommend that we purchase the truck from Emergency One, exercising Option J-1 and J-2, F.O.B. Ocala, less existing used equipment for $26,316.00. This is $221.00 more than low bid, but is offset by the highly recommended and more expensive Stainless Steel Foam Tanks. 1 2. The pluses leading me to make this decision are, 1. Aluminum Booster Tank 2. Compartment Configuration 3. Stainless foam Tanks 4. Manufacturer for parts and service only 55 mile away. TO: City Council FROM: City Manager SUBJECT: Seminole Well BATE: March 9, 1978 Project Engineer Ron Rector submitted the attached letter as his final report on the Seminole Well project. The letter recommends "sincelthetwell cconstructionhisdnowcconsideredocomplete,and Pump contract Central Florida Underground should finish making the final connection of the well to the water distribution system, making other minor corrections and testing the well under operating conditions by mid -April. In accordance with Mr. Rector's letter, I recommend that the $500 held back on the Locke Well contract be paid.

Tiffany City Manager #1 West Gate Plaza Clermont, Florida 32711 Waterworks Improvements Seminole Well City of Clermont, Florida C44-SO5 Dear Mr. Tiffany: The purpose of this letter is to present our final report with regard to the Seminole Well. In summary, Locke Well and Pump Company, in October 1977, plugged the 12-inch casing and pumped water out of the 18-inch casing. The water level rose within the 18-inch casing providing conclusive evidence that a leak in the well casing existed. Locke Well and Pump Company then attempted to reseal the well casing between the 12-inch and 18-inch sections and removed the two pieces of cable left in the well during construction. The static water level dropped several feet once the well had been sealed properly. After the above repair work was completed, another television inspection of the well was run by the City on November 18, 1977, and the video tape reviewed by this office. The seal appeared to be functioning satisfactorily. The City then disinfected the well and submitted bacteriological samples to the Florida Department of Environmental Regulations (FDER) for their review. FDER has verbally accepted the results of the most recent bacteriological tests indicating that the subject well can now be processed further for placing into service. Based on the above, it is our opinion that Locke Well and Pump Company has repaired the leak in the well casing and that the $500.00 ��CORPORATE OFFICES • 520 NORTH SEMORAN BLVD. . P.O.
