be stengthened with steel bracing, and the beams cleaned and spalls
patched, and (3) the holes in the retaining walls be patched.
City Manager Forbes stated that it would be expensive to make the
recommended improvements and that he had also asked the Engineers
who made the report to evaluate the cost of a new bridge and its useful
life vs. repairing the existing bridge and its estimated life.
Council Member Turville asked that when replacing the bridge was being
considered, to include the cost of building a bridge with higher water
clearance.

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.

Wily) to: Variance Appl iranf.n
From: Ci.L•.y Manager
Subject: Variance Standards
Purpose: 17us nr_me was arr..i.tten to assist Clermont Citizens in
understanding the purpose of zoning variances and
the specific ci.rcumstana:s in which the City Council
can grant variances.
when zoning was first• conceived, citizens and lawryers were concerned about
the difficulty of: writing general rules over land use that would be appl.i-
crible toi.anumerable pieces of property. 111icre would be wises, for exuTle,
where a general side yard rccqui1.-cnr3nL would be a hardship on a few lots that
were not consistent with the general pattern.
ror this reason, the variance was .included in 11be Zoninq Ordinance as a
device to alleviate unfairness in particular cases.
CONDITIONS '111AT MUST BE DIET:
The concept of a variance was never intended to be a way of relaxing zoning
regulations on a wholesale fashion. In order to authorize any variance from
the city's Zoning Ordinance, the City Council must find the following:
1. 1i at special mndit ions or circwmstances exist which are peculiar
to your land, structure, or building which are not applicable to
other properties in your zoning district.
This would include topographic features, odd shaped lots, drainage
requirements, etc. In other words, you must show that the strict
application of the Zoning Ordinance produces a unique or unneces-
sary hardship in regard to your property that is not applicable
to other properties.
2. The hardship must not
ip be self created. Examples of a self created
hardshwould include having to build an extra garage because you
bought another car; or enlarging your home because your mother-in-
law is coming to live with you.
3. The City Council cannot chant a zoning variance to you that will
grant you a special privilege which is denied to other property
owners in the soon zoning district.
This might include permitting the erection or operation of a busi-
ness that would otherwise not be permitted by the Zoning Ordinance.
For example, allowing a shopping center to he built in a residen-
tial zone. This would require rezoning the property because the
City Council cannot by a variance change the basic zoning classi-
fication.
4. In order to obtain a variance you must demonstrate that a literal
interpretation of the Zoning Ordinance Id deprive you of rights
comronly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district,
and cause an unnecessary and undue hardship for you.

W-1110 to: Variance Appli.crunts
SLIbjecl:; Variancx Stcindards
If you owned a single lot that was platted many years ago
and dos net now nect the lot width requirements of the
Zoning Ordinance; you may have a situation where a literal
interpretation of our. Zoning Ordinance would deprive you of
the use of your lot. This is a right enjoyed by other ad-
joining properties and would result in an undue hardship.
however, economic disadvanta9.e alone does not constitute a
ards suffic{ent to warrant granting a variance. ]1 person
wanting a land area variance for. a fourplCx bccaure he can't
afford to buy enough property does not have sufficient
grounds for a variance.
5. Any variance that is granted must be the minimum variance to
nalce possible the reasonable use of your property, and be in
ImrnnnY with th2_9eneral intent of the Zoning Ordinance.
CONCLUSION:
If you believe that your request for a zoning variance meets the above
five conditions; feel free to complete the attached application forms.
Please rem=mber that you must demonstrate to the city council, acting
as the Zoning Board of Adjustment, that your variance request meets
the above conditions before your request can be granted.

Dear Property Owner:
There have been several requests from property owners in your
area for clarification of the variance request for 1719 First.
Street, of which you were recently notified.
The supporting posts and the deck itself penetrate the side yard
setback requirement. The required side yard in the R-1-A zoning
classification is nine (9) feet, and this deck is only six (6)
feet from the property line.
A variance will be required to allow the deck to remain as it is.
This will be considered at the City Council meeting on Tuesday,
August 23, 1983 at 7:30 p.m. in the City Council Chambers at the -------
corner of West Avenue and Desoto Street.

The Regular Meeting of the City Council will be held next Tuesday,
December 20, 1983 in the Council Chambers. The following items are
on the agenda for this meeting:
OLD BUSINESS
CHANGE ORDER NO. 1. Enclosed is a change order requested by the City
Engineer for our sprayfield project. He has requested the following
changes:
1. Add a one inch chamber to the sprinkler head slabs and pour
a minimum of one cubic foot concrete around the sprinkler
base. This change is requested in order to reduce the pos-
sibility of damage when harvesting and will cost $5,203.20.
2. Add a 20" turbine roof vent and wire mesh in the floor of the
_ sprayfield pump station. The vent is necessary to improve
ventilation, and the mesh is needed since it was not shown on
the original contract. The cost is $412.00.
3. Add two 8" Dresser Couplings in the sprayfield pump station
to facilitate installation of the pump and future repairs.
The cost is $268.
The total cost of the Change Order is $5,883.20. Council direction is
requested on this matter.
OATH OF OFFICE
The City Charter requires newly elected officials to take the oath of
office during the last regularly scheduled Council Meeting in December.
The oath of office will be administered to Council Member Hal Turville
who was elected to Seat Number Two and Council Member Virginia Henry
who was elected to Seat Number Four.

NEW BUSINESS
BICYCLE MOTO CROSS (BMX) COURSE. Martin Miller has requested the City's
assistance with establ shing a BMX Course in the City of Clermont.
The BMX Moto Cross Course is for .racing bicycles and is becoming very
popular in Florida. Organized races are conducted which are operated
Page -2-
Tuesday's Meeting
December 14, 1983
by associations with a method similar to Little League.
Mr. Miller spoke with the Parks and Recreation Board about establishing
a course, and they were favorable to this idea. They requested that I
show Mr. Miller various public properties in Clermont to see if we could
find a suitable site for this use.
Mr. Miller believes that the old football field on the Junior High School
property would be best suited for the BMX Course, and has requested the
City's support in working with the School Board to obtain aproval of
this request.
Enclosed is a letter from Mr. Miller explaining in more detail the BMX
organization.
LAKE WINONA BRIDGE
For several years the City has been waiting for the State to complete its
inspection of the Lake Winona Bridge located on South Lakeshore Drive.
Several years ago we became concerned about the bridge when conducting the
investigation for deepening the channel.
Enclosed is a synopsis of the inspection report. In general the report
states that:
A. Guardrails, striping, and handrails should be installed in
accordance with current AASHTO safety standards.
B. End bents on one piling should be strengthened with steel
bracing, and beams should be cleaned and spalls patched.
C. Holes in the retaining walls should be patched.
I believe the bridge is basically in good shape and probably should be
repaired. However, we have requested that the engineers who prepared
the report from the firm of Howard, Needles, Tamment, and Bergendoff
(HNTB) write the City a report which would evaluate the cost of a new
bridge and its useful life vs. the cost of repairing the existing
bridge and its estimated life. After receiving this report, we should
be able to make a decision on the proper course to take.
If there are no Council objections, we will have the report completed
and present the results to the Council at a future date.
Sincerely,
CITY OF CLERMONT

to let you know of my interest in such an appointment. I know
that such;a body must be selected to reflect a representative
cross section of the community, and if my particular qualific- 4

business or property interests in Clermont, aside from my own t
residence. I am 63 years old, in excellent health, and semi -retired.
I teach chemistry, as Adjunct Professor, at the University of
Central Florida, For 25 years I was Professor of Chemistry at the
U.S, Naval Academy, Annapolis. I was Department Chairman for eight
of those years. I also hold the rank of Captain, U.S.Naval Reserve, j
Retired. Prior to my teaching career, I held positions in the !
research departments of several industrial firms which made
explosives, textiles, and pulp and paper. My education began at
Franklin and Marshall College in Pennsylvania, and proceeded through
the doctorate at the University of Maryland --with time out to
serve in the Navy in World War ii
I have no particular background in planning and zoning matters
as such, other than to note that I have lived for many years in a
community where zoning and planning were very strict, and where
decisions were made by careful and painstaking procedures. I have
attended several recent meetings of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and I am pleased to note that a city as small as Clermont takes such
matters seriously. It is a never ending challenge, it seems. The
city is very liveable and can stay that way by good zoning and
planning. Other than doing what I can to help make Clermont a
pleasant place to live, I have no axe to grind.
If appointments are to be made to P & Z , and if my qualifications `

At the last regular meeting of the Board of Directors of the Clermont
Chamber of Commerce, it was suggested that the Board of Directors meet
with the Mayor, City Manager, and City Commissioner at a workshop to
discuss the auditorium matter. The Board would like to have such a
meeting in January, at the convenience of theCCity Commission.
Would you call this matter to the attention of the City commission and
if the members of the City Commission agree, advise our office of a date
that would be satisfactory with the city.
Thanks and compliments of the season,
Sincerely,
CLERMONT CHAM13ER OF COMMERCE

Memo to: City Council
From: City Manager
Subject: Weekly Memo
Date: December 16, 1983
COUNCIL MEETING
The second Regular Council Meeting in December is next Tuesday, December
20th. You will recall that we arc having two meetings in a row so we
will not have any conflicts with the Holiday Season.
FINANCE DEPARTMENT
Enclosed is the November Financial Report of the City.
SENIOR CITIZENS CENTER
The Lake County Council On Aging has decided to postpone moving into
Jenkins Auditorium, and will remain in the Kehler Park Building.
The Senior Citizens Dinner and Dance in Jenkins was a great success.
Eighty-five people enjoyed the evening, and thirty-nine new members
formally joined the Lake County Council On Aging. Everyone involved
was very pleased with the turnout.
in order for the Clermont Senior Center to be a success, Council Members
should help by recruiting people to serve on the Board of Directors. We
should also appoint a Council Liaison to the Senior Center.
ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING
The City Council will conduct an Organizational Meeting at our January
10, 1984 Council Session.
At this meeting the Council will make appointments to our various Boards
and Commissions, such as the Planning and Zoning Commission, Parks and
Recreation Board, East Central Florida Regional Planning Council, the
Building Code Board of Appeals, and Code Enforcement Board.
Council liaison appointments will also be made. Enclosed is a list of
the various Boards and Commissions showing the members and their term
expiration dates. I have also placed an ad in the South Lake Press
informing citizens of the Organizational Meeting. If you have any
questions, please call me.
HOLIDAY GARBAGE COLLECTION
Monday, December 26th and Monday, January 2nd are Holidays. For this
reason, during both of these weeks garbage normally collected on
Monday will be picked up on Tuesday; and Tuesday's collection will
take place on Wednesday. There will be no change in Thursday and
Friday's schedules. A notice of these changes has been placed in the
newspaper.

Weekly Memo
December 16, 1983
JAYCEE BEACH CONCESSION STAND
Kyle Woodard has cancelled his lease for the Concession Stand, so it is
vacant now. Several people have expressed an interest in the building,
and would like to have either a restaurant or bait shop.
I would suggest that we advertise for proposals for the use of the build-
ing, but first we should determine exactly how we want the building to be
used. Enclosed is the "Request for Proposal" that was used last year.
BALL FIELD PARKING
For many years citizens using the Little League Field on Twelfth Street
have been parking in the Catholic Church Parking Lot. The Church has
contacted me because they prefer that the City no longer use the lot.
After numerous discussions with Church Officials, they have agreed to
allow the City to use the first two rows of the Church Parking Lot for
ball field parking and a turnaround. In return, the City should provide
parking for citizens who use the field.
additional pa g ,{
^.I
Enclosed is a map prepared by the Public Works Director showing how we
could add sixty parking spaces along Twelfth Street. One asphalt drive ---"--
20' long and 300' wide with grass parking could accomodate 60 parking
spaces. It would cost approximately $6,000 to construct this parking
area. Council direction is requested on this matter.
ANIMAL CONTROL
In the first two months of the fiscal year 23 dogs have been impounded.
Only 7 of these were claimed by their owners.
MANHOLES ON MINNEHAHA
Utility Director Davis is ordering rings to raise the manholes on Minnehaha "
Avenue, as directed by Council during our last meeting.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
Enclosed are letters from Joe Wiebush and Henry Czech requesting appoint-
ments to the Planning and Zoning Commission. To date, we have also re-
ceived letters from Nick Jones, Kathy Parsell, and Jack Sargent request-
ing appointments to the P&Z.
TOURIST DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL
Council Member Turville has been appointed by the Lake County Board of
Commissioners to a two year term on the Lake County Tourist Development
Council.

Dear Goorget
As per our phone conversation on Wednesday, August 17th, I am
asking for your consideration of a Bicycle Moto Cross (BMX) on
City owned property.
In the August 2nd issue of the USA Today, BMX is described as
gaining more momentum than ever. There are two major BMX race
sanctioning organizations, the NBL (National Bicycle League) and
the ABA (therecare some1Association).
Btween 120,000racersnationwidethese two organi-
zations,The nearest BMX Park is in Pine Hills with motes every Saturday
night. Racers at this park come from as far away as Miami, Tampa,
Jacksonville, and Daytona. Although I am told by Randy Olsen,
NBL Florida State Commissioner, that the track does not actually
make a profit, it does pay for itself. It is however, possible
to make a profit as many tracks do. The Pine Hills track charges
500 a car admittance to the park, claims 20J of the gross of the
concant. most ofand, and the entryhere is a fee is used.00 forentry fee for each tropntest-
hies and ribbons
As far as the construction of the track, according to Randy Olsen,
most tracks are constructed to NBL and/or ABA specifications by
volunteer laborers of service organizations (such as Kiwanis,
Moose, Knights of Columbus, Scouts, etc.).
A State/National race would be a big plus for the commerce of
Clermont. The race would be held at least once a year. Families
would travel across the state/country to attend such an event
becusparticipants
Nationals. the
Theserace
raceswould

an eto

weekend.
In closing I would like to add that either the NBL or the ABA
would design the track at no charge. They would also instruct
you as to how to run the track, using volunteers. Usually these
volunteers are parents of the boys who race (and girls).
If possible, I would appreciate meeting with you in the near
future to discuss this matter further. Please call me at The
Rite Bike Shop at 394-3038 at your earliest convenience. Your
consideration and cooperation is greatly appreciated.

1.1 Piling: There ere five horizontal cracks 1/32" to 1/64" wide in
the cast face of Pile C at the Nest Bent (See Sketch I). The same
condition exiats in the west fnce of Pile C at the rest Bent. This
condition is most likely caused by the force of the retaining wall
acting on the approach side of the piles.
i
1.6 End Bents: There is an area in the East Bent cap above Pile C that
line broken away from the main cap but remains attached by the action
of the reinforcing steel. Open cracks ranging in width from 3/4" to
2" are observed in the bottom face of the cap at Pile C. Vertical
cracks 1/16" to 1/64" are observed in the front face of the cap at
Pile C. This deficiency may have been caused by a concentrated force
on Pile C by the retaining wall and the approach fill at the time of
construction (See Sketch II and the photo on page 9 of 10). In the
west Bent, at the bottom of the cap near Piles C and D, there are two
spells; 1' -8" long x 4" wide x 3/4: deep and 3' Long x 7" wide x 111"
deep respectively. Efflorescence and slight rust stains were observed
at scattered locations on the vertical faces of both caps but no other
cracking was noted. This staining originates from minor deterioration
of the diaphragms and/or unseen beam ends.
2.2 Beams: In Beam 'III there is a crack 1/64" wide in the bottom face of
the flange extending 8' +/- out from the East Bent. There are two spalls.
each 3" long x 1/2" deep, at the bottom of the beam stems approximately-------•-
2' - 6" from the East Bent. There are exposed 1/4" diameter steel
strands which are rusting at these spall locations. In Beam V there
are two minor spalls, each 3" long x 1/4" ddep, at the bottom of the
beam stems approximately 1' - 6" from the East Bent. No exposed
strands exists at these locations.
3.1 Deck: There are map cracks 1/64" wide over most of the deck area caused
by age'and traffic wear.
3.6 Curbs: The concrete curbs have scattered map cracks 1/64" wide and two
minor edge spalls.
3.7 Handrials: The handrail system on the birdge is not of adequate strength
use as a "traffic barrier, per AASHTO code. Pipe handrails of this type
are generally used as "pedestrian" barriers and will not withstand
vehicle impact.
Page 3 of 10 (B)
Bridge No 115050 Inspection Date 7-18-83
4.2 Retaining Walls: Long 2" thick x P -10" wide concrete sheet units
comprise the retaining walls behind both end bents. The west wall
has a horizontal crack 1/8" to i/16" wide at 1'-4" clown from the
top of both visible units. This location coincides with the longi-
tudinal stiffeners Integrally cast Into the units on that back faces.
Both visible units In the west wall exhibit two vertical cracks 1/8"
to 1/1611 wide between Piles A and B and two vertical cracks 1/16" to
1/32" wide south of Pile D. The top unit in the west wall has one
vertical crack 1/8" to 1/16" wide between Piles B and C. The cast wall
has a horizontal crack 1/8" to 1/16" at 1'-4" down in each of the
visible units; It extends from the north end to Pile D in the upper unit
and from Pile C to the south end in the lower unit. One vertical crack
1/32" to 1/64" wide exists between Piles A and B and also between Piles
B and C in the lower unit of the east wall. A U-shaped cracking condition
exists at several locations along the top of all retaining wall units
and at all steel anchor tie holes (see sketch III). Both retaining walls
have settled approximately 5}" (see sketch IV). All cracking and settle-
ment problems can be traced to improper earthwork at the time of con-
struction and to erosion of the channel bottom at the retaining walls.
There is erosion behind the southeast and northeast wingwalls and a
weakening of the southeast concrete block (unmortared) wingwall (see sketch V).';
11.7 Guardrails: There are no approach guardrails to the structure.
6.3 Striping: The solid double -yellow centerline is faded and there are
no painted edge -of -lane lines. - -

CRITICAL - 1.6 End Dents: The portion of the East Bent Cap that has broken away at
Pile C should be strengthened with steel bracing or doweled and
Jacketed with concrete.
2.2 Beams: The exposed strands In Beam III should be cleaned and the spnlls
patched with neat epoxy in Beams III and V.
3.7 Nandralls/Parapet: A traffic barrier should be installed per AASMTO code.
4.2 Retaining Walls: The steel anchor ties at Piles A and D at both end
bents should be removed and the holes in the retaining walls patched.
The settlement and cracking of the walls should be closely monitored -
if deterioration continues their removal and replacement with driven
sheet piles may be considered.
4.7 Guardrails: Approach guardrails to the structure should be installed
in accordance with current standard safety criteria to improve traffic
safety.
6.3 Striping: The centerline striping should be repainted to improve
traffic safety.
TRAFFIC RESTRICTIONS: Load ratings performed on 8/17/83 indicated a need to
restrict the load level to `i5 tons. Recommended posting is filed in -_.
