Council, Member. Dupoe requested that the weeds in Center Lake be 
treated chemically, or that young people on summer vacation be used

ing regulation of portable signs had been forwarded to him by Ed

VISITORS WITH BUSINESS 
REQUEST FOR VARIANCE - J. M. PITCHFORD - READY MARKET, 1019 WEST 
HIGHWAY 50 
Mr. Jim McLaughlin and Mr. Larry Dunn appeared before Council on 
behalf of J & F Supermarkets to request a variance from front yard 
setback requirements to allow installation of a gas island in front 
of the store at 1019 West Highway 50. Mr. McLaughlin stated that 
the original request for a four -product island could be amended 
to one for an island handling only three products, allowing a short- 
er island. Mr. Dunn stated that the Ready Market is no longer com- 
petitive with other convenience stores offering gasoline to custom- 
ers. No one in the audience spoke for the request. Mr. Ben McLean, 
who owns adjoining businesses, Mr. IIoward Schuster, Karen Skelton, 
and Ernest Collins spoke against the request, agreeing that there 
would be increased traffic problems in an already congested area 
if the request were granted. Letters in opposition to the request 
were read from Howard Schuster and Gurney & Hogan - all proprietors 
of nearby businesses. Mr. Collins also mentioned a sign that 
violates the setback requirements. Mr. Turville stated that the re- 
quest for a variance was based strictly on an economic disadvantage. 
A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCIL MEMBER TURVILLE, SECONDED BY.COUNCIL 
ANNEXATION REQUEST - BOB WADE - PROPERTY EAST OF CITY 
Mr. Bob Wade appeared to request voluntary annexation of property 
east of the City Limits. A discussion concerned the forming of an 
enclave if sections identified on a'mapz presented with .the request 
as sections 3 and 14 were included, because of an area owned by 
another party which would be surrounded by Mr. Wade's property, but 
not annexed to the City. Dennis'Horton, attorney for Mr. Wade, 
stated that Mr. Wade desired to have all of his property, including 
sections 3 and 14, annexed to the City. Mr, Baird stated that crea- 
tion of an enclave could present legal problems. A MOTION WAS MADE 
BY MRS. DUPES, SECONDED BY MR. TURVILLE AND UNANIMOUSLY CARRIED THAT

RESOLUTION NO. 427 - REQUEST FOR CONDITIONAL USE PEI2M:C'1! - LAKE 
HIGHLANDS RKTL111•;M1:;NT 11NI7 NUR9:I:NG IIQML; 
Mayor Boala roviewed the roquent, which had been tabled at an earlier 
meeting, for a Conditional. Uso Permit to allow expansion of the 
present Lake Highlands RoL•i.r.ement and Nursing home. Mr. Herb Rogers, 
owner of the facility, titated that the conditions required by the 
City were acceptable to him, except- that he would prefer not to 
build a fence around his home. If it is acceptable he will deed 
twenty-five (25) feet of the lot on which his home is built to the 
corporation operating the Nursing Home, in order to meet rear yard 
setback requirements and to allow a fire lane through the property. 
Rev. Petrie, a retired clergyman who holds services at the home, 
spoke in sympathy with Mr. Rogers, and stated that the elimination 
of parking spaces on East Avenue would create a hardship for elderly 
visitors to the Home, and that patients in wheelchairs would be 
deprived of the view of the lake if a wall were built. Mr. George 
Dupee expressed concern for the integrity of the R-1-A zone if the 
lot the Rogers house is on is included in the Nursing home property 
unless it is rezoned. 
In response to questions from Council Members, Mr. Rogers stated 
that lie plans never to build on the property zoned R-1-A, that the 
retention areas shown on the site plan should improve drainage, 
that the total occupancy of the facility when completed will be 211, 
and that he will remove the transformer and the dumpster from an 
R-1-A to an R-3 location. A discussion concerning the fact that Mr. 
Rogers' residential driveway is used for Nursing home purposes fol- 
lowed. It was also discussed that without a wall there will be no 
buffer between the zoning classifications, and Council Member Dupee 
read the buffer ordinance. She also expressed concern that using 
the driveway for Nursing Home activities compromises the integrity 
of the R-1-A district. A letter from Mr. Buddy Baker, whose mother 
resides at the Home, was read, requesting that parking on East 
Avenue not be eliminated. Mr. Paul Meredith questioned Mr. Dupee 
as to the practicality of asking Mr. Rogers to place a fence 
around his driveway, stating that Mr. Rogers has agreed to build the 
fence where it was earlier requested. He expressed concern that 
the twenty-five (25) feet to be deeded to the corporation might be 
used for parking, and also suggested that angle parking be allowed 
on East Avenue. 
City Manager Forbes explained his concern that a twenty-five (25) 
foot rear yard from the R-3 property be provided or it may set a 
poor precedent for the City. After much discussion A MOTION WAS

The City Manager reported on a meeting that he and Mayor Beals 
had attended with the Lake County Council on Aging. He explained 
that the proposed use of the building at Kehlor Park for a Senior 
Citizens' Center would be operated by the Center in Leesburg, but 
must be self-sustaining by local membership and donations. He sug- 
gested that they be allowed to use the building in cooperation with 
the Recreation Club. After a trial period of one year, the situa- 
tion will be re-evaluated. It was the consensus of Council to allow 
a one-year trial period for the cooperative use of the building at 
Kehler Park by the Recreation Club and the Senior Citizens' Center, 
without a formal contract and at no charge.

PROPOSED ANNEXATION POLICY FOR THE CITY OF CLERMONT 
The following proposed annexation policy for the City of Clermont 
was read by Mayor Beals: 
1. ANNEX ALL LAND AVAILABLE TO THE OWNER. This item is 
included in the annexation policy to insure that small 
parcels arc not annexed one at a time and that the en- 
tire parcel available to a property owner is annexed 
in order to allow for the proper planning of City 
facilities. 
2. IF DEVELOPED LAND IS ANNEXED, INSURE THAT ALL PUBLIC 
FACILITIES MEET CITY STANDARDS. Form a Special Asses- 
sment District or other funding mechanism to insure 
that streets, roads, water, and sewer systems are re- 
constructed to meet City standards if the property is 
annexed. Perform a cost benefit analysis on the reven- 
ues vs. expenditures created by an annexation request. 
3. ENCOURAGE THE ANNEXATION OF LAND INTO THE CITY THAT 
IS CONTIGUOUS WITH OUR CORPORATE LIMITS. 
4. Large undeveloped parcels of land that are annexed 
will not be developed until SUBDIVIDED according to 
the City's Subdivision Ordinance, and have an OVERALL 
DEVELOPMENT PLAN. 
5. ANALYZE THE IMPACT ON CITY FACILITIES (i.e. sewer, 
water, streets, etc.) that will be created by an annex- 
ation request. If a large impact is being created on 
any City facility or utility, an agreement with the 
owner must be reached on how the service will be pro- 
vided before the property is annexed and/or developed. 
An example of such an agreement would be a developer 
providing a new water well, lift station, package 
sewer plant, or limiting sewer hookups. 
6. NO ANNEXATION ORDINANCE SHALL BE PREPARED BY THE CITY 
STAFF UNTIL REQUESTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL AT A REGULAR 
MEETING. Requests for annexation shall first be con- 
sidered by the City Council upon receipt of a written 
request from an interested property owner. 
No rezoning proposals will be considered by the Plan- 
ning and Zoning Commission or City Council until the 
parcel is annexed. 
It was suggested by City Manager Forbes that a sentence about form- 
ing an enclave might be added. IT WAS MOVED BY COUNCIL MEMBER POOL 
AND SECONDED BY COUNCIL MEMBER COLE TO ADOPT THE ANNEXATION POLICY. 
It was pointed out by the City Manager that it may be best to re- 
type the policy as a Resolution, so the motion and second were 
withdrawn. It was the consensus of Council to draw a Resolution 
stating the annexation policy of the City and present it to the 
Council at the next meeting. 
STREET SWEEPER 
Mr. Jack Sargent asked if there was money budgeted for a new street

distributed to citizens indicate a concern for clean streets, and 
City Manager Forbes stated that• a decision on such allocation of 
funds had not been made. Mr. Sargent strongly urged that the 
purchase of a street• sweeper be considered. 
LAKE COUNTY PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING 
Mr. Adolbert• Evans stated that he would be representing the City, 
at the City Council's request, at• the Lake County Planning and 
Zoning meeting, and asked if the Council had any direction to offer.

REPORTS 
City Manager Forbes reported that he had checked into the cost 
of 1,enovat:1.ons to the outside of' the building used by Leslie's 
Beauty Salon located at Eighth and Mi.nneola. The building is 
owned by the City and renovations would cost approximately 
$3,900. It was the consensus of the Council to have the City 
Manager obtain bids .for this work and contact L,esl.ie Griffin 
to find out her plans f.or extending the lease for the building. 
The Council was unsure if they would let bids for this work if 
she did not extend the lease. The current lease expires early 
next year. 
City Manager Forbes explained a request by Mr. Ed Augustine to 
allow traffic from his mini warehouse to exit onto City property. 
Ile requested that the Council Members meet with Mr. Augustine to 
find out his reasons for this request. 
It was also requested that the Council Members review the Chestnut 
Street Park situation and determine if it would be best for the 
City to construct a 10' fence at the rear lot line of the park. 
PUBLIC REARING ON THE 201 PLAN 
The City Manager reminded all Council Members that there will be 
a Public hearing on the 201 Wastewater Management Plan on Friday, 
June 24, 1983 at 7:00 p.m. in the City Council Chambers. 
BUDGET WORKSIfOP 
The City Council reviewed the City's Budget Schedule in which 
the Tentative Budget Bearing would be held on September 6, 1983 
and the Final Budget IIearing on September 13, 1983. Ile explained 
that the time requirements for the various public hearings were 
defined by State Statute. The consensus of the Council was that 
they had no problems with the Budget Schedule as proposed. 
The City Manager explained that he had never had a budget hearing 
before the proposed budget was prepared. However, he believed 
that it would be beneficial for the Council Membe 
rs to obtain the 
Capital and Special Activity Budget requests before the proposed 
budget was prepared. This would give the Council Members more 
time to review the budget requests and answer questions, and be 
prepared for the future budget hearings. The Special Activity 
Budget requests were given to all Council Members along with 
backup materials. Requests from the Chamber of Commerce, Library, 
Parks and Recreation Committee, and Centennial Committee were dis- 
cussed briefly. 
The Capital Outlay requests were also given to all Council Members, 
and Finance Director Saunders explained the Capital Items requested 
by Finance and Administration. He also requested that the Council 
allow the City to purchase a word processor from this year's budget. 
The word processor would be purchased through $5,000 budgeted in 
this year's budget from Revenue Sharing and $2,500 from Reserves.

PROPERTY: 
Lot 1; Block 109; City Blocks 
LOCATION: 
1019 West highway 50 
Corner of Highway 50 and Tenth Street 
ZONING: 
C-2 General Commercial 
REQUEST: 
A variance from the building setback line 
on Highway 50 to allow an encroachment of 
2812" into the required 50 foot front yard 
setback. 
COMMENTS: 
The petitioner feels that the business is 
no longer competitive with other businesses 
in the area who sell gas, such as Pelican, 
Ideal, Shop & Go, and Cumberland Farms. If 
the variance is granted gasoline pumps 
-- 
would be installed. 
The City Staff is very concerned that if this 
variance is granted, it may create a dangerous 
traffic and parking situation. 
Trucks and cars entering or exiting from Highway . 
50 could block cars parking to enter the store 
and interfere with the traffic flow. There is 
only ill of clearance between the building and 
the southeast corner of the gas pumps which is 
not wide enough for maneuvering large vehicles. 
There is no problem with having a combined gas 
station and convenience store in C-2 General

APPLICANT ��®Q 
NAME: J & P Su22rmarkets, Inc.___ 
ADDRESS:P. 0. 13ox 1007, Winter Garden, FL 32787 
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 ( )I, Construct (V), Move and Place ( ), a (sign) building 
on lot/s1CeZiEd.(1__ �, Block 
Subdivision_._LL7'yQ./,¢�!>!�. Address`. ,Zones_ 
Section of Code_p�j�i_M rk�A=/C=in the City of Clermont, Florida. 
The reason given by the Building Official for the decision in refusing to issue a 
building permit is: 
Encroachment of 2812" on required front yard setback of 50 feet 
on highway 50. 
My appeal to your Board is based on my contention that this decision creates a 
hardship on me for the following reason, or reasons:. 
We are no longer competive with businesses, in this area, who 
have gas, such as Shop & Go, Ideal, Pelican and Cumberland Farms. 
Seven (7) copies of all necessary floor plans, plot plans, and other pertinent infor- 
mation are attached hereto, on paper size W? 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.

Lho slxc:iEic CII:V 11C9t mcry:., in which the City Council 
can grant variances. 
When zolh.Lng was f.i.rst concoived, citize

du cii.f.Ci.cully of writ.i.ng gcnoral rulr2s over Land use that would be appli- 
cable toinnumcrable pieces of property. 111,ere would be cases, for c:ca ,le, 
yard rr_Klu:ircmenL would be a ltardshi.P on a few lots that 
where a general sidle 
were not Mnsi.stent with dho general. pattern. 
For this reason, the variance_ cans included in 111c Zoning Ordinance as a 
device to alleviate unfairness in particular cases. 
CONDITIONS JIM MUST BE MET: 
The concept of a variance was never intended to le a way of relaxing zoning 
regulations on a wholesale fashion. In order to authorize any variance from 
the city's Toning ordinance, the City Council must find the following: 
1 
That �x.cial eonditionS or circumstances exist which are peculiar_ 
tc� your land, structure, or building which are not applicable to 
other properties in your zoning district. 
This would include toixxjraphic features, odd shaped lots, drainage 
requ.i.re:ments, etc. In other words, you must shrxa that die strict 
application of die zoning Ordinance produces a unique or unneces- 
sary hardship in regard toyouur prOY)!!r y drat is not applicable 
to other Propert,Tes. 
2. She Ihardshi, nnL;t not to self created. L::camples of a self created 
hardship wuld include leaving to build an extra garage because you 
bought another car; or enlarging your hoer because your mother-in- 
law is oDming to live with you. 
3. The City Council cannot grant a zoning vv fiance to you that will 
errant you 'u special privilege which is denied to other property 
owners in the sam zoning drstri.ct. 
This might include permitting the erection or operation of a busi- 
ness t1lat would otherwise not be permitted by the Zoning Ordinance. 
For example, allowing a shopping center to b' 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 thatu oliteral 
inter retortion of the Zoning Orctinance would deprive yo_ 9 
ccnuonly enjoyed by other. properties in the same zoning district 
and cause an unnecessary and undue hardship for you.

Subject. Variance standards 
If you wined a single lot that was platted many years meago 
and does not now et the lot requircnnnts 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. Iris is a right enjoyed by other ad- 
joining properties and would result in an undue hardship. 
Ilwtever, econcauc disadvanta r.alone does not constitute a 
dshup ffic ent to warrant grant ng a var ance. A person 
wanting a land area var ance Lor a Lourp cx .aunt 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 mininnmi variance to 
make possible the reasonable use of y2ur ro rt ,and be 
harmony w th the general intent of the 7Aning Or nance. 
CONCLUSION: 
If you believe that your request for a zoning variance meets the above 
five conditions; feel free to conplete the attached application forms.

Memo to: City Manager 
From: Utility Director 
Subject: Roof Repair 
Date: June 10, 1983 
During our yearly inspection for equipment and facilities evaluation, we found 
that the roof on the sewage plant operations building was in need of repair. 
The roof rock is loose, there are bubbles in the tar paper, and there are 
places where only one ply of tar paper is holding back the rain water. Rain 
water is seeping between the tar paper and is rotting the 2" x 12" facing 
boards. 
We have received scaled bids from the companies listed below, and I recommend 
we repair the roof using Queens Roofing at $2,700. 
Bidding was as follows: 
1. Queens Roofing $2,700 
Lowest Bidder which met our specifications 
2. Smith Roofing $2,500 
--- Did not submit 5% bid bond -- 
3. Cone Roofing $3,450 
Did not submit 5% bid bond 
4. B.B. McCormick Roofing Co. $3,950

Dear Mr. Nagle: 
Please be advised that Lawson Plumbing has employed Williams Structures, 
Inc. to supply and erect a pre-engineered building. Mr. Belvin has 
informed me that you require a letter verifying the intended use of 
this structure. At this point in time, Lawson Plumbing intends to use 
this building for dead storage and pre -assembly of fire protection 
equipment. As such, there will be no new parking demands as no new 
employees or any retail sales will be done from that structure. If the 
use of the building changes at any point in time, I understand it will 
be necessary to advise the city as to our intentions and to make applica- 
tion for a new building permit and site approval, if necessary. 
If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to call 
me or Mr. Belvin. Thank you. -'

ZONING: 
M-1 Industrial 
REQUEST: To construct an 11,250 square foot steel 
storage building to be used for storage 
and assembly. 
COMMENTS: Manufacturing facilities over 7000 square feet are a 
conditional use in M-1 Industrial zones. 
The Zoning Ordinance classifies two types of uses; 
Permitted and Conditional. Permitted uses require 
the City to issue a building permit on the basis of 
an application for a permit alone, without any further 
review, as long as all the requirements of the City's 
Zoning Ordinance are met. Permitted uses are allowed 
throughout a zoning district. 
Conditional uses require special approval by the City 
Council after a recommendation is made by the Planning 
and Zoning Commission. Conditional uses are those which 
may be appropriate in some locations within a zoning 
district, but only if certain conditions are met. 
The Clermont Zoning Ordinance states that a Conditional 
Use Permit may be granted only if the following condi- 
tions are met: 
1. The proposed use is desirable at the particular 
location. 
2. The use will not be detrimental to the health, 
safety, or general welfare of persons working or 
residing in the vicinity. 
3. The proposed use will comply with the regulations 
and conditions in the City Codes for such use. 
4. The Conditional Use will not adversely affect the 
officially adopted Comprehensive Plan of the City. 
LAWSON CUP

may impose conditions deemed necessary and desirable 
to protect the general welfare in accordance with the

office. tIowever, the applicant states that no addition- 
al employees will be required (see attached letter) for 
his expansion, and for this reason has not increased 
the number of his off-street parking spaces. 
If this CUP is granted, it is recommended that the 
following conditions be met: 
1. The property must be developed in accordance with the 
approved site plan. 
2. If, at a future date, parking at this site proves 
inadequate, the applicant understands and agrees that 
the City may require more parking or rescind this CUP. 
3. No further expansionof the use or additions to this 
facility shall be permitted except as approved by 
another CUP. 
4. All applicable rules and regulations shall be met, 
including final site plan approval, landscaping, park- 
ing and sign regulations. 
5. The final Certificate of Occupancy cannot be issued 
until each of the stated conditions has been met. 
6. This permit shall expire if construction has not 
begun within one year of the date of this CUP.' 
7. If any of the above conditions is violated, the 
applicant understands and agrees that the City 
Council may revoke this permit by resolution.

REQUEST: 
Variance from the setback requirement for signs 
on Highway 50, because the owner feels that the sign 
existed as a nonconforming sign in this location 
for many years, and that there is no other place 
to put the sign on this property. 
COMMENTS: 
The Sign ordinance requires ground signs over nine 
feet above grade level to be placed A feet from 
the property line. The sign in question is on -the 
property line. In all other respects it meets 
the requirements of the sign ordinance. 
The Building Official noticed that the sign was 
being erected without a permit having been obtained, 
and by an unlicensed sign contractor and ordered 
the work stopped, but the sign was erected anyway.

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:

The reason given �by the Building Official 'or the decision in refuping to issue a 
building permit is: 1�(�� Cy--'v"e--Cv 
My appeal to your Board is based on my contention that this decision creates a 
hardship on me for the following reason, or reasons:

mation are attached hereto, on paper size BY' 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.

PruX1»sc: 11:is memo wa:: wr.Ltt.en to assisL CLermont Citizens in 
understanding the purlmse of 7on..ng variances and 
thc: specific circunstzuces in which the City Council 
can grant: var.iancx:s. 
When zoning was first concti.ived, ci.t.izc:nn anel lawyers were concerned about 
the difficulty of writing cloneral nrles over land u:e that tnauld be appli- 
cable toi.rmwm:erable pieces of prolxarty. '1lrcre w.auld Ix: aides, for exartgalr_, 
where a general. side yard requirement would be a hardship on it few lots that 
were not consi.otont- with the yeneaal. pattern. 
fbr this reason, the variance was included :in The Zoning Ordi.nanM. as a 
device, to alleviate unfairness in 1xirt.i.Cular. cases. 
CONDITIONS 11IN' MUST BE MET: 
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 ci.ty's Zoning ordinance, the City Council must find the following: 
1. That special conditions or circumstances exist which are peculiar- 
to your land, structure, or building which are not applicable to 
other properties in your zoning district. 
7fiis 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 be self created. Dcamples of a self created 
hardship would include having to build an extra garage because you 
bought another car; or enlarging your bane because your mother-in- 
law is coming to lave with you. 
3. 'rhe City Council cannot grant a zoning variance to you that will 
grant you a special privilege which! denied to other property 
owmers in the sarm zoning district. 
of a busi- 
enaction o r operation

This might an pe 9 
ness that would otherwise not.- lx permitted by the Zoning ordinance. 
P'or exarrg3le, allowing a shopping center to be 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 would deprive you of rights 
camonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district, 
and cause an unnecessary and undue hardship for you.

Dear Mr. Jones: 
I was pleased to be able to meet you, but sorry to have to advise 
you that you are in violation of several City Ordinances in regard 
to the Amoco sign. 
I gave you a verbal Stop Work Order, but you proceeded to put up 
the sign. I called on you again to advise you to remove the sign. 
We hereby order the sign removed within five (5) days to avoid 
legal action. 
The sign was erected without an approved permit by an unlicensed 
sign erection contractor, and no engineered design drawings in- 
dicating wind and stress resistance and conformance with local 
codes were presented. 
Please give this matter your prompt attention. 
Sincerely, 
Harvey Nagel

Dear Property Owner: 
As an owner of property within 150 feet of 611 West Highway 50, 
you may be interested in a variance application filed by the 
b 
owner of this property, occupied Y the Amoco Station. 
P P 
The sign on the property has been a nonconforming use, according 
to the Zoning Ordinance, because it is too close to the road. 
When the sign .is changed by a new owner, the Ordinance requires 
him to correct the situation. The present owner feels that there — 
is no other place to put the sign, and has asked for a variance 
to the setback requirement. 
This request will be considered by the City Council on Tuesday, 
June 14, 1983 at 7:30 p.m. in the City council Chambers located 
at 882 West DeSoto Street. 
You are invited to attend this meeting to express your views

ZONING: 
C-2 General Commercial 
REQUEST: 
To allow construction of 36 townhouse units in 
nine buildings, together with improvements which 
include a pool and community center. 
Multi -family units are a conditional use in C-2 
COADIENTS; 
General Commercial Zones, and must meet all the, . 
requirements of the R-3 Multi -family Residential 
Zone. 
The Zoning Ordinance classifies two types of uses - 
Permitted and Conditional. Permitted uses require 
the City to issue a building permit on the basis 
of an application for a permit alone, without any 
further review, as long as all the requirements 
of the City's Zoning Ordinance are met. Permit- 
ted uses are allowed throughout a zoning district. 
Conditional uses require special approval by the 
City Council after a recommendation is made by the 
Planning and Zoning Commission. Conditional 
uses are those which may be appropriate in some 
locations within a zoning district, but only if 
certain conditions are met. 
The Clermont Zoning Ordinance states that a Con- 
ditional Use Permit may be granted only if the 
following Conditions are met: 
1. The proposed use is desirable at the partic- 
ular location. 
2. The use will not be detrimental to the health, 
safety or general welfare of persons working 
or residing in the vicinity. 
3. The proposed use will comply with the regula- 
tions and conditions in the City Codes for 
such use. 
W.G. Management C.U.P. 
Page two 
4. The Conditional Use will not adversely affect 
the officially adopted Comprehensive Plan 
of• the City. 
In granting a CUP the City may impose conditions 
deemed necessary and desirable to protect the 
general welfare in accordance with the intent 
of the Zoning Ordinance. 
COF REIIENSIVE PLAN. The Comprehensive Plan sets 
the following standards for the R-3 High Density 
Residential District: 
High Density Residential. High density residen- 
teal development should be encouraged in: 
1. Areas adjacent to major thoroughfares. 
2. Areas close to major retail centers. 
3. Areas already developed high density. 
A multi -family development on this property is con- 
sistent with the Comprehensive Plan of the City of 
Clermont, however, the Plan also states that we 
should discourage intensive construction of housing 
units on flood plains and areas of extreme slope. 
Since this property is on a relatively steep slope, 
you may wish to consider reducing the density for 
this project so that it will not exceed 8.7 dwell- 
ing units per acre, or 5000 sq. ft. per dwelling 
unit. This would also reduce the impact of the 
development on the sewer system. 
i 
CONDITIONS. If this CUP is granted, the following 
conditions should be considered: 
1. The property must be developed in substantial 
accordance with the approved site plan. The 
density of development may not exceed 5,000 
sq. ft. per dwelling unit, :or 8.7 units per 
acre. 
2. No further expansion of the use or additions 
to this facility shall be permitted except as 
approved by another CUP. 
3. All applicable rules and regulations shall be 
met, including final site plan approval, land- 
scaping, parking, sign'regulations, and all 
yard setbacks.

The conditions has 
been met. 
5. This permit shall expire if construction has 
not begun within one year of the date of this 
CUP. 
G. If any of the above conditions is violated, 
the applicant understands and agrees that the 
City Council may revoke this CUP by resolution. 
7. All drainage, including overflow devices, must 
be approved by the Lake County Pollution Con- 
trol Director and the City Engineer. 
B. A buffer strip of trees and hedges must be 
installed on the north property line, with a 
sprinkling system to maintain same. 
9. A sewer main must be installed to the north 
property line in accordance with plans approved 
by the Utilities Director and the City Engineer. 
No sewer line shall be installed until the de- 
veloper performs all engineering work necessary. 
to determine the proper depth of the line for 
future extension north on Grand Highway to 
Pitt Street. 
10. No water service shall be supplied until the 
assessment for the water line is repaid. 
PREVIOUS ACTION: 
The Planning and Zoning Commission on June 7, 1983 recommended 
that the CUP be granted subject to the above conditions, with 
the following change: 
In Condition S 1, change second sentence to read: 
The density of development may not exceed 
thirty (30) units.

OWNER: 
Arthur L. Thayer 
APPLICANT: 
Same 
PROPERTY: 
East 100 feet of lot 18, Clermont Heights 
LOCATION: 
203 Palm Lane 
ZONING: 
R-1-A 
To add to an existing porch which violates the 
REQUEST: 
rear yard setback requirement by five feet. A 
rear yard of twenty-five (25) feet is required, 
and the proposed addition would leave a rear yard 
of only twenty (20) feet. 
COMMENTS: 
Mr. Thayer's home has a large retaining wall on the 
south side about four (4) feet in height. On top 
of the retaining wall is an existing screened porch 
which is nonconforming because it extends five (5) 
feet into the rear yard requirement. Mr. Thayer 
now wishes to enlarge the porch and add a small 
utility room on the existing retaining wall, making 
the rear wall of the home a continuous line. He 
believes that topographic conditions make this var- 
iance unique and that this addition would be best 
for aesthetic reasons. (See attached letter.)

OF THE CITY OF CLERMONT, FLO—DA 
APPLICANT 
ADDRESS: R03 
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 ( Move and Place ( ), a (sign) building 
on lot/s_ 1_60 _�� / �, Block 
Subdivision1a�ffM44t1_//_6!L, Address�2Q�i��/�'I_ L. �/ c- ,Zone R-1-A 
Section of Code 26-15 Yards v—in the City of Clermont, Florida. 
The reason given by the Building Official for the decision in refusing to issue a 
building permit is: 
Proposed structure will penetrate rear yard setback requirement, 
as does the existing structure. 
My appeal to your Board is based on my contention that this decision creates a 
hardship on me for the following reason, or reasons: 
See letter attached. 
Seven (7) copies of all necessary floor plans, plot plans, and other pertinent infor- 
mation are attached hereto, on paper size 81," x 14" minimum size. 
1 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. 
Date: &/"y 
Very truly yours,

Gentlemen; 
S am applying for a variance in the set back requirement at the 
rear of my house nt 203 I'alm Lnna, Clermont. 
Due to the topography of the lot, n retaining wall with a concrete 
deck was built to keep the house from washing down hill. The dock 
extends some four (4) fact above grade. 
On part of the deck,thera is an existing roofed screened porch 
which violates the sat back requirement by five (5) feet. 
'de are in the process of repairing and extending the deck struct- 
ure to contend with erosion of the deck and house foundation, 
which hao occurred over the past ten years. This work complies 
with the zoning requirements, and we have been issued a permit 
for same. 
However, the existing unenclosed portions of the deck on either 
side of the enclosed porch are an eyesore to the neighbors. We 
wish to enclose these portions of the deck contiguous with the 
existing roofed porch. A utility room with architectual appear- 
ance similar to the main house would be erected on the one side, 
and a screened area on the other. 
Permission to accomplishcthis construction will enhance the over- 
all appearance of the property, and be an improvement to the 
neighborhood. 
Thank you.

Dear Property Owner: 
As an owner of property within 150 feet of 203 Palm Lane, you 
may be interested in a variance application filed by the owner 
of this property. 
The petitioner would like to enclose the rest of a partially 
screened deck. This deck violates the required setback require- 
ment by five feet. A variance is necessary if this deck is to 
be further enclosed. The owner feels that the appearance of 
the neighborhood will be enhanced by this addition. 
This request will be considered by the City Council on Tuesday, 
June 14, 1983 at 7:30 p.m. in the City Council Chambers located 
at 882 West DeSoto Street. 
You are invited to attend this meeting to express your views 
on this matter. By working together we can make Clermont an 
even better community in which to live and work. 
Sincerely, n
