City of Clermont
p.0. Iloy. 2.19
Clermont, F1, 32711
Dear Nr. Forbes:
Thank you for taking the Lime you spent with me going over your aquatic
weed problem on the small lake located across from city hall. As I indicated
to you, we can easily gain conLrol over the problems that are plaguing;
water body. However, in your study as to how you want to handle it, you
should take several things into consideration. As I have priced it out, the
total cost would be $2,200.00 per year for an aquatic plant management. program
— for this lake. I strongly recommend that this program be considered, as it
allows us to gain control over each of the problems in the lake as opposed
to just a singular problem of nlgae and charn, which I suggested
dwecould a
control with two applications spaced approximately apart
total cost of $800.00. Filamentous algae and the submerged algae, chars, are
obviously the major problems in that system. However, torpedograss is
rampant on the shoreline, and cattails have obviously been a problem in the
past and are quickly growing back again.
With the inflow problem of water coming Off the streets into the lake,
algae will continue to be a problem, and even after a successful treatment,
without continued monitoring and treatments, the algae will return and create
continued unsightly conditions. As I discussed with you, if you were to elect
to only use our two applicatlon program, you would then have to follow up
with your own program of some kind in order to consider the treatments a
success.
With a one year program, you are going to find it will take 4 to 5 months
to get the lake into condition. Torpedogrnss and cattail growth that has been
killed off by herbicide application tends to deteriorate very slowly. However,
the system is a good one, and once this vegetation is knocked back, we can
easily keep it under control.

Mr. George U. Forbes

July 21, 1981
Wildlife should not be effected by the program at all. Because of Lite
amount of chara and submerged vegetation in Lite lake, we would treat that lake
in two sections allowing flnh to move to untreated sections, thus avoiding
potential. fish killu. Soma cattail growth and other vegetation may be left
in the lake in order to mnintahi it better habitat for wildlife.
An you know, we have done considerable work for the City of Maitland in
the pant, and in addition have worked and are presently working for other
municipalities such as the City of Tamarac, City of Port St. Lucie, City of
Melbourne, and City of Jackoonvllle.
If I can answer any of your questions, or if you elect to sign a contract
with us, please do not hesitate to contact me, and I will forward a contract
to you. We thank you sincerely for the opportunity to be of service to you.

Memo to: Clermont City Council

Subject: Repeal of Chapter 18 from the City Code of Ordinances
Date: July 23, 1981
Chapter 18 (attached) of the City Code of Ordinances was established

This Ordinance describes the procedures for the Police Department,
such as Animal Control and appointments of Officers by the Mayor,
and is no longer correct.
This entire Chapter has been replaced by the City Charter, Personnel
Policy, and State Law. The City Attorney and I recommend that it• be
repealed.

Subject: Amendments to the Building Codes ordinance
j.
Date: July 22, 1981
Enclosed is Ordinance No. 217-C, which amends the Municipal
Code of Ordinances regarding the regulation of building construction. i
The amendments proposed in this ordinance are as follows: S
1. Section 5-1. Adoption ofCodes have been amended by formally
adopting the 1981 editions of all City Codes dealing with E
building construction. No new codes dealing with building
construction have been added.
2. Section 5-5 (3) (c) has been repealed. This section required f.
all contractors and subcontractors to furnish a bond in the
amount of $5000 to ensure compliance with the laws of Florida
and City regulations.
This change has been strongly recommended by the builders i
themselves, since they believe that the bond simply increases costsor the City. Such a
without protecting the COoruLake County, and the bneverond has

recommends that this change be made.
3. Section 5-7 has been amended simply to delete the Plumbing
Permit fees that were established by ordinance in this section.

We should establish all fees by resolution to avoid unneces-

We are recommending that the above amendments be adopted in
order to improve the procedures of the Building Department for both
the City and our Contractors.

Memo to: City Council
Prom: City Manager
Subject: Code Enforcement: Board
Datc: June 16, L981
Attached are materials from the City Attorney regarding Code Enforcement Boards
for your review. With the loss of. Municipal. Courts, the City lost much of its
❑bility to try Municipal Ordinances. We are now forced to use the County Court
system which is already overloaded with other cases, and has not been very
effective.
For this reason, last year the State Legislature adopted enabling legislation
for Code Enforcement Boards to assist the City in enforcing Ordinances such as
Building Codes, Fire Preventive Codes, Sign Codes, Landscaping Ordinances, and
other similar Ordinances related to the use of property in municipalities.
This Board is not a court, but does have quasi—judicial powers similar to the
City Council when it acts as the Zoning Board of Adjustment.
The main purpose behind these Boards is to gain compliance with our municipal
codes, and they can impose fines of up to $500 if an owner does not correct a___
violation within so many days. If the property owner still refuses to comply,
the City then has the power to record the fine as a lien against the owner's
property.
Palm Beach County has had a Code Enforcement Board for over two years, and they
have not yet had to resort to any liens. The Palm Beach Board was implemented
by special enabling legislation Just for their County in 1979.
Respectfully,
George D. Forbes
City Manager
