DICKSON SHORES PLAT
City Manager Forbes explained that this small subdivision on the south

by the City. The plat presented was in conformance with the City Sub-
division Ordinance, except for one lot. The Dicksons further requested
that the City waive the requirement of -dedicating 5 percent of the land
area or money in lieu of dedication. The City does have a 6 inch water
main that was constructed through one lot. After extensive discussion,
81-44 A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN CONLEY SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN POOL AND
UNANIMOUSLY CARRIED TO REJECT THE PLAT AS SUBMITTED, DUE TO THE FACT THAT

chase at par value with an annual percentage rate of 10 pe
rcent. The
William R. Hough & Company stipulated further, that if the City would obtain
a "Mig 1" rating from Moody Investors Service, Inc., they would purchase
the notes at a 9 percent rate. William R. Hough & Company's bid is a
nonconforming bid due to the stated condition that their bid is subject to
the notes being noricallable.

to more stringent requirements enacted by the Department of Environmental
Regulations. Ten additional acres are deemed necessary, due to these
new requirements. Funds to construct a holding and polishing pond
are included as a safeguard. They are not anticipated to be needed,
but should not be ruled out for funding because the possibility is
evident. Clarification was made that the requested amount for funding

MINN1i01.A POLIC_I: pli01'1{CTLON. BncLosed is a letter to the City
of hllunrula regarding their request Io contract for Police Services from
the City of ClermonL. I hellCVe LhaL if we wish to contract for services
at all, the hest action for both CLtles would be for Minneol❑ to provide
their own Police ProtecLLon from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. This would give Minneola
the advantage of retaining the Identity of their Police Department and allow
them to handle their own Code Enforcement Complaints. In this manner
Minneola would also have tho fl.exlbillty of determining the exact number of
officers they wish to hire, which could fluctuate depending on the season or
their financial position.
Chief 'fyndal and myself believe that the only practical method of allowing
Minneola to contract services from Clermont would be during the 12 p.m. to
8 n.m, shift. During most of this time, the City of Clermont has only one
officer on duty, and we could hire ;in additional officer (for which Minneola
could reimburse us for approximately 507 of the costs) to patrol property in
Minneoln and Clermont. Plcasc rofor to the enclosed letter for more details.
The City of t•linneola has also requested a proposal for contracting services
from the County Sheriff.
BOND ISSUE AND CAPITAL 1till ItOVBtHiN'T FUND. The City's 1972
Special Assessment Bonds (Snnftnry Sewage Improvement Certificates) matured
on April 1, 1981. Those bonds were established to pay for the installation
of the sewer lines for our 'Treatment Platt. The City still has $381,567 in
the Bond Account from Lhis issue, even though all the Bonds have been paid.
If there are no Council ob_}eetions, the City's policy is to transfer these
monies Into the Capltrtl lmpruvemonts Fund which will then have it balance
of $441,567.

Dear George:
Just a short note to advise you of the status of the lawsuits the City is presently
involved in.
As you recall, the Smith vs. City case involved some citrus trees the City allegedly
damaged when constructing the sewer system. I have proposed a settlement of $750.00
which is the appraised value of the trees. I will need Council approval in order
to finalize this settlement.
The City vs. Misuraca case has been filed and Mr. Misuraca has retained Bill Stone
to represent him. They have just completed a survey of the premises and Bill advised
me that they will be getting a permit to construct the fence early next week.
Very truly yours,

RE: SMITH vs. CITY OF CLERMONT
Dear George:
Pursuant to your request, herewith is a summary of the issues involved in the Smith
case.
Mr. Smith granted an casement to the City in 1971 for the construction of the sewer
system. The easement was conditioned on the City being responsible for damage caused
to the property during construction.
Apparently there was considerable damage to citrus trees during construction (see
attached appraisal). The City's records reflect a continuing line of communication
from Mr. Smith for payment, but apparently no payment was ever made.
Mr. Smith's attorney contacted me in May, 1979, requesting payment (see attached
letter). I investigated the matter and no action was taken until November of 1979
when Mr. Smith filed the suit.
After several preliminary matters were disposed of by the Court, the issue was
scheduled for pretrial conference in December, 1980. Prior to the hearing, Smith's
attorney indicated he would settle for $750.00.
In view of the original demand for $3,500.00 and in view of the possible liability
for damage to the trees, lost income on the fruit, attorney fees and court costs, I
felt this was a reasonable settlement.
Very truly yours,
LEONARD H. BAIRD, JR.

Dear Mayor Iloskinson and City Council Members:
Please accept this letter as my resignation from the Planning
and Zoning Commission of the City of Clermont.
I have enjoyed working with the Planning and Zoning Commission,
and the City Council for several years. My only hope is that I
gave to the City as much as I learned from this experience.
However, since I am now involved in several other matters, such
as our Village Square Association, I believe that I can no longer
devote the time necessary for the Commission.
I appreciate your confidence in me by reappointing me to another
two (2) year term on the P. & Z. I am confident that future
efforts of the City Council, and Planning and Zoning Commission
will ensure that our City remains an outstanding community to
live and work.
Thank you for your consideration.

Subject: Contracting for Police Protection
,
Dear Mayor Blake and City Council Members:
Thank you for contacting the City of Clermont regarding the possibility
of contracting for police services from our City.
You may recall in September of 1980, I presented to your Council a report
regarding the various advantages and disadvantages of contracting for Law
Enforcement. Another copy of thin report is enclosed for your review.
11nis report points out the key factors that determine the failure or
success of contract law enforcement. These factors are citizen accep-
tance, and the expectations of both the contracting local government and
the government that is providing the services. It also discusses some
of the jurisdictional and State law problems that are unique to a mu-
nicipality contracting services,which must be considered before any for-
mal contract could be considered.
In reviewing the needs of the City of Minneola, I would offer the follow- ,
ing suggestions on the possibility of contracting services with the City
of Clermont:'
I. POLICE PROTECTION MINNEOLA WOULD PROVIDE. The City of Minneola
could still retain its Police Department by hiring two or three
full time employees who would be responsible for patrolling from
8 a.m. to 12 p.m.
This gives your City the advantage of retaining the identity of
your Police Department and would also assist you with various code
enforcement complaints.
I'm sure you can understand the difficulty that our Police Deport-
ment could have trying to enforce different Ordinances in our
separate Cities, Under this arrangement, the County would still
dispatch for your City.
Pago 2
Contracting for Police Protection
April 6, 1981
II. POLICE. PROTECTION CLERMONT WOULD PROVIDE.
'11le City of Minneoln would contract from the City of Clermont for Police
Protection between the hours of 12 p.m. and 8 a.m. This would insure
that your City has 24 hour a day protection.
I believe such an arrangement would be the most economical for your City.
You would only be paying for part of Lhe costs of one Police Officer and
avoiding the extra costs (you would not be receiving the services) of in-
vestigation, dispatching and overhead that would result if you were to con-
tLct for all police services with our City. This arrangement also allows
your City the flexibility of determining the exact number of officers you
wish to hire, which could fluctuate depending on the season or. the City's
financial position.
CONCLUSION.
The purpose of this letter is to present the City of Minneoln with one
- -- possible method of contracting for police services.
This is not a formal proposal, but a conceptual approach that must be further
analyzed by both Cities, if you believe that this concept has merit. The
City Council of the City of Clermont has taken no formal action on this matter.
Thank you for your consideration. If you have any questions, please feel free
to contact me.
Sincerely,
I�/Ll y r

0I,1) Coolll:It "IF,MOIt[At, 1,1BRARY BUILDING
pURPOSF: The purpose of tills Report is to investigate alternatives for the
use of a Clty owned bulldl.ng that wait formerly used an the Cooper
Memorial Library.
I. PROpER'1'Y. The City of. Clermont presently ban clear title to the
Old Cooper Memorial Library Building located at 630 Desoto Street. Phis
property consl.ats of Lots 18, 19, 20 and the West 50' of Lots 5 and 6,
City Block 76, City of Clermont (see attached map).
I1. LOCATION AND ZONING. The property is Zoned C-2, Central Businesn
Dlstrict, which allows for full scale retail, office, and service uses.
It is located three (3) blocks North of Ilighway 50, between Lake and
Seventh Streets on the North Side of Desoto Street.
III. CONDITION OF BUILDING. 'file buildings total square footage is 2,124
square feet. This property is a single story building. The original
Library was built in 1914, and is of frame construction with a metal
roof. This portion has 642 square feet and because of its age and
condition, is near the end of it:; remaining economic life. ' The inside
has been partially remodeled with a drop ceiling, flourescent lighting
and equipped with central. air and heat. ---
A Single story concrete block addition was added in 1954. Later in 1974,
two more additions were made as well as a new rest -room facility. Like
the original portion, this building is built above ground and has a
crawl space. The roof is of asbestos the and lion gutters and downspouts
with aluminum soffits around the eaves. The inside finish is a mixture of
paneled and painted walls, dropped ceilings, acoustical tile and painted
plaster, and the floors have wall to wall carpet. The outside is ade-
quately landscaped, but has no paving in the parking area.
IV. VALUE OF BUILDING AND LAND. According to an appraisal on this prop-
erty completed by John L. Rocker of Rocker Realty, the value of this parcel
is as follows:
Land Value $25,025
New Building Value 35,152
Old Building Value 3,582
'Dotal Value $63,582
V. ALTERNATIVES. The City has three (3) basic alternatives for the use
of this land as follows:
A. SELL THE PROPERTY. If the City believes that it has no present or
future use of this property, then it could be sold at a Public Sale with
the asking price of $63,582. This money could then go into the City's
General Fund.
ADVANTAGES OF THIS ALTERNATIVE: If the City is not going to use the
property, it can receive funds for the operation of the City and avoid
the operating and maintenance costs of this building.
A. SliLivTHE PROPIiR'17 (continued)
DISADVANTAGE: 'Cho parcel would be forever lost for public use.
B. LE SC THE PROPERTY. Since the building Ls located in n Central 8uni-
nesn Distriet Zone, the City could lease the building. This land in not
located in the more heavily traveled business streets such no Eighth or
Montrose, no it would probably not be well suited for retail services.
However, It could possibly be utilized successfully as an office building.
AUVAN'1'ALL,S: By renting the building the City would be getting
some return for its Investment, and still avoid the costs of operating the
building. The land could also still be used by the City for public use
!It a future date.
DISADVANTAGES: 'Tile City would still be responsible for the exterior
maintenance of the building. As discussed above, the old original per
-
tion of this building is in a poor state of repair due to age and termites.
C. PUBLIC USE OF BUILDiNC. This property could be used for public use in
two ways:
(� CIVLC USE: 1laere is much demand in Clermont for meeting space for
Service Clubs, dances and other Civic functions. Jenkins Auditorium
in heavily used and this building could fulfill a useful purpose.
ADVANTAGES: A new building for Civic purposes that would benefit -
Clermont residents.
DISADVANTAGES: This would add another building to the City's in-
ventory in which the City would be responsible for the operating and
maintenance costs. operating and maintenance costs are estimated at
$5,000 to $8,500 per year for this building, depending on how heavily
it is used. The City would also be forced to hire another custodian
to assist in maintaining the various City buildings.
(2) USE AS A CITY HALL. This building could be renovated and utilized
as a site for a new City Hall. This would require the City to sell its
present City hall site on Highway 50, and the City would also be re-
quired to remodel the Old Library Building
If the City were to move into the old Library Building, the old wing
(see attachment A) should be removed and the existing building remodeled.
i
ADVANTAGES: 'File City can realize the most building per square foot
of cost, and design the interior specifically for City Hall use. The
City would be able to keep costs to a minimum and move into the new
building quickly.
The remodeled Library Building, even without the new wing has approxi-
mately 1,482 square feet compared to the present 1,100 square feet
currently being used by the City.
'111e sale of the present City stall should more than offset the*cost of
remodeling the old Library building. Moving into the old Library, and
selling the present City Hall is more cost effective than paying for
the maintenance and operating costs of both buildings.

Memo to: Clermont City Council
From: City Manager
Subject: Lake Dot Development - Utility Benefit Fees
Date: April 7, 1981
Attached is a letter from Nick Jones requesting to be
placed on the Council Agenda to discuss the Utility Benefit Fees
for the Lake Dot Development.
BACKGROUND. You may recall that the purpose of the
Utility Bene it Fees are to require new construction to pay the
full cost of sewer and water services demanded by growth. These
-- fees must go into a special fund that can only be used to defray
the costs of water and sewer system improvements required due to
an expanding population.
The City Council adopted an ordinance requiring all new
construction to pay a Utility Benefit Fee before a building permit
could be issued on August 26, 1980. However, this ordinance did not
take effect until October 1, 1980.
This means that all permits issued for new construction
before October 1, 1980 were not required to pay the Utility Benefit
Fees. However, as the October 1st deadline approached, it presented
the City staff with some minor problems. What would we do with permit
applications received before October 1, 1980 but could not be reviewed
and given final approval by the City until after this date? To avoid
any undue confusion or conflicts, we set a policy that if the City
received applications that contained all the necessary plans and fees
before October 1, 1980, we would date the building permits the day
of the application and give each applicant 180 days to begin construc-
tion. If no construction commenced within 180 days, the building
code specified that the permits expire, and the Utility Benefit Fees
would then be required if the owner still wished to build at a later
date.
In this manner, persons who wished to build would not be
penalized by City review procedures, and the issuance of building
permits on speculation to avoid the fees would also be eliminated.
Page 2
Utility Benefit Fees Memo
April 7, 1981
LAKE DOT DEVVLOPm,NT. On September 29, 1980, representatives
of the Lake Dot DcvelojT1i nt paid for building permit fees and presented
the necessary building plans and preliminary site plans to the City.
At this time it was carefully explained by Mr. Nagel and I that
construction must commence within six months or the permits would
expire, and Utility Benefit Lees would be required to be paid.
It was also discussed that the City would review the site
plan, make comments and that a final site plan must be approved by the
City, before construction can begin. Final site plan approval before
construction is requirod for all multi -family developments. During
the past five months, the developers of this project were reminded on
numerous occasions that we must receive their final site plans and
construction commence by the end of March.
Early in March of 1981, the City received the final site
plan for this project. The plan was reviewed and on March 10, 1981
a letter was sent to the developers regarding the site plan. This
letter specifically pointed out that the permits for this project
expired at the end of the month. I also personally reviewed the
letter with Mr. Jones in his office, and carefully explained that
construction must begin by the end of the month or the Utility
Benefit Fees would be required.
The final site plan was approved by the City in March, but
construction did not begin. On April 1, 1981 I informed the developers
that the 180 days had expired, and Utility Benfit Fees must now be
paid. The developers are appealing this decision.

Memo to: Clermont• City CouneLl

Subject: Dickson Shores Plat
Date: April 10, 1981
6ncloued is the Dickson Shores Plat for your final approval. The Plat has
been amended to ensure that there is 100' at the building setback line on
Lot 3.
You may be aware that• for some months we have been working with the Dicksona
to ensure that they plat this small subdivision on the South Side of Lake
Winona.
Some months ago, Mr. U'ickson sold lots to persons in this area without going
through the City for subdivision approval, and violated the State law and
City Ordinance. To complicate matters further, some of the lots that
Mr. Dickson previously sold did not meet the City zoning regulations and we also
have a large six (6) inch water main that was constructed through one lot.
After many discussions with Mr. Dickson and his attorney, we would now recom-
mend that this plat be approved.
All of: the platted lots meet the requirements of the City Subdivision Ordin-
once.
In addition, since this is a Class I Subdivision ( a subdivision that does
not require public improvements), the Dicksons are requesting that the City
waive the requirement of dedicating 5% of the land area or money in lieu of
dedication.
The City has made similar waivers for small Class I Subdivisions.

Dear Mr. Forbes:
On behalf of the owners and developers of Dickson Shores, First Addition,
l hereby request that the plat of such subdivision prepared by Ben Blackburn
and Associates be submitted for approval to the Clermont City Council at
the earliest convenient date.
Waiver of the requirement for a contribution of Five Percent of land area
(or a commensurate monetary contribution) is hereby requested for this.
subdivision. The reasons for such waiver are:
a) Subdivision is extremely small in area and is served by an exist-
ing dedicated street,
b) No additional facilities of any nature will be required from the
City of Clermont to serve such subdivision now or in the future.
c) The City has already, without benefit of easement, installed a
water line across a portion of the subdivision.
Your submission of this request for waiver and approval of plat to the Council
will be appreciated,

Subject: Bids for Water & Sewer Revenue Bond Anticipation Note
Date: March 20, 1981
Bids were opened for Interim Financing on March 20, 1981. Two (2) bids were
received for the note. Sun first National Bank of Lake County proposed to
purchase the note at par at an annual. percentage rate of 9.000%. The other bid
received was from William R. hough & Company for n purchase at par value at an
annual percentage rate of 10%. Bough Company also f:ootnoeed that if the City
would obtain a "Mig 1" rating from Moody's Investors Service, '[tic., they would
purchase the notes at a 9.000% rate. (lough Company's bid is a non -conforming
bid due to their stated condition that their bid is subject to the notes being
non -callable.
It should be noted that in the initial proposals of December 15th, the Sun Bank
proposed a direct loan to the City at an interest rate of 60% of prime over the
life of the note. For this option to be advantageous to the City, the prime rate
would have to'average 15% or lower over the period of construction. The prime
would probably dip below this point in the next few months, but as to whether
it will level out or start back up is anyones guess at this point.
Enclosed are copies of both bids received along with -the Resolution of Award.
RECOMMENDATION. If the City Council believes that it is in our best
interest to go ahead with a Bond Anticipation Note instead of a direct loan with a
variable rate based on prime, I would recommend that the low bid from Sun Bank
be accepted.

Memo to: Clermont City Council
From: City Manager
Subject: Dickson Shores Plat
Date; March 19,1981
Enclosed is the Dickson Shores Plat for ,your final approval.
You may be aware that for some months we have been working with the
Dicksons to ensure that they plat this small subdivision on the South
side of Lake Winona.
Some months ago Mr. Dickson sold lots to persons in this area without
going through the City for subdivision approval, and violated the State
law and City Ordinance. To complicate matters further, some of the lots
that Mr. Dickson previously sold did not meet the City zoning regulations
and we have a large six (6) inch water main that was constructed through
one lot.
After many discussions with Mr. Dickson and his attorney, we would now
recommend that this plat be approved.
All of the platted lots meet the requirements of the City Subdivision
Ordinance.
In addition, since this is a Class I Subdivision (a subdivision that
does not require public improvements), the Dicksons are requesting that
the City waive the requirement of dedicating 5% of the land area or
money in lieu of dedication.
The City has made similar waivers for small Class I Subdivisions.

Dear Mr. Forbes:
On behalf of the owners and developers of Dickson Shores, First Addition,
i hereby request that the plat of such subdivision prepared by Ben Blackburn
and Associates be submitted for approval to the Clermont City Council at
the earliest convenient date.
Waiver of the requirement for a contribution of Five Percent of land area
(or a commensurate monetary contribution) is hereby requested for this
subdivision. The reasons for such waiver are:
a) Subdivision is extremely small in area and is served by an exist-
ing dedicated street.
b) No additional facilities of any nature will be required from the
City of Clermont to serve such subdivision now or in the future.
c) The City has already, without benefit of easement, installed a
water line across a portion of the subdivision.
Your submission of this request for waiver and approval of plat to the Council
will be appreciated.

Memo to; Clermont City Council
From: City Manager
Subject: Request for installation of water line and septic tank.
Date: March 19, 1981
You will recall that at our February 24, 1981 council meeting the City
Council denied a request by Jay VanderMeer to construct a commercial build-
ing with a septic tank and private we11. (See memo dated February 20, 1981)
Mr. VanderMeer has reconsidered this request and is now willing to connect
this building to the City water system, but still wishes to be allowed a
septic tank.
I SEWER SERVICE: Since the City sewer service was constructed,
the City has, in a few nstances, allowed private septic systems to be
installed, but only for single commercial buildings in areas where sewer
service is not feasible or available.
Chapter 25 of the City Code of Ordinances states that septic tanks may be
installed and used in the City limits, in areas where the city does not
furnish sewer facilities, until such time that such service becomes
available. Of course, a sewer system can be installed and made available
anywhere in the City if enough -funds are obtained for lift stations and
sewer lines. In general, the City has defined inavailability of a sewer -
as:
1. An area where a lift station is necessary. (This area would not
require a lift station.)
2. An isolated building that is over 400 feet from a sewer line.
(The building itself is over 1,000 feet from a sewer line.)
The City Subdivision Ordinance requires all new subdivisions to be con-
nected to the City sewer and water service.
II. WATER SERVICE: Mr. VanderMeer is willing to connect to
the City water system. However, he prefers to have an 8-inch line con-
structed only to the Southeast corner of his property on Grand Highway.
(See attached maps.) He would then construct a private 2 inch line from
the meter to his building until the entire tract is developed.
III COMMENTS: The City Water Study requires an 8 inch main
to be constructed from the Grandview Apartments to the Citrus Tower. Utility
line extensions are also required to be constructed from one end of a prop-
erty to another to ensure that when the abutting property is developed, the
line can be extended. The City Ordinance also requires the City to pay for
the cost of any oversized lines necessary to provide for future development.
IV ALTERNATIVES: SEWER. (1) The City could deny the request
for a Septic System and set a policy requiring all new construction to hook
up to the City Sewer System unless a lift station is required. (2) The City
could grant the above request on the condition that the owner sign a coven-
ant that he understands, if more than one building is placed on the property,
it will be subdivided and connected to the City sewer system.
-2-
V WATER CONNECTION: (1) The City could require the 8-inch
line to be constructe across Mr. VanderMeer's entire property. Ile could
then connect a service line from this 0-inch main. (2) The City can
construct a water main 220 feet to the Southeast property line (at Mr.
Vandermeer's cost), install a meter, and allow a 2-inch service line to
the proposed commercial building. Mr. Vandermeer would also be required
to sign a covenant that if more than one building is constructed on the
property, the 8-inch line will be constructed across the property.

George D. Forbes

Dear Mr. Forbes:
As you know, I am in the process of developing a tract on Highway 27
and Grand Highway. I need to build a 601 x 601 building for an antique
shop for my wife. I would like to request the city install a water meter
at the Southeast corner of the property on Grand Highway, which is
205 feet North of the present 6" water main.
This could be a 2" line to the meter and will be temporary until I can
plan the entire tract. I will also need a septic tank permit for this
building. This is on the North half of the property.
Looking forward to meeting with you.

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 Ree ]octal, corner of Minnely-lvz & IbN._27, Block---------------
Subdivisionclermont Heights , Address 857 rest Minnehalw ,Zone c2
Section of Codenrticle XJX - C2-E 2 and 3 in the City of Clermont. Florida.
The reason given by the Building Official for the decision in refusing to issue a
building permit is:
Proposal site plan indicates five (5) foot penetration into twelve (12) foot
required side yard on corner lots, plus a seventeen (17) foot penetration
into the required twenL•y-five (25) foot rear yard.
My appeal to your Board is based on my contention that this decision creates a
hardship on me for the following reason, or reasons:
Our request for a variance is to enable us to erect a modern building to
replace an old, original hot dog stand that has lien added to several times
in the past. This will permit us to operate our business as usual and give
the property an elegant face-lifting.
Seven (7) copies of all necessary floor plans, plot plans, and other pertinent infor-
mation are attached hereto, on paper size %" 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, constructioi
of the structure must be completed within one year from date of grant.

It6gDI:ST: Mr. Craig requests a rear yard setback variance from 25 feet required i
to 20 feet 6 inches in order to construct an addition to his Sporting
Goods Business.
This bulding is presently nonconforming since the Zoning Ordinance
requires a side yard of 12', and the East side of the Gun Shop has a
side yard of only one foot.
Section 26-40 of the Zoning Ordinance states that nonconforming
structures cannot be expanded except in conformity with the
Ordinance.
Section 26-29 of our Zoning Ordinance allows Variances to be issued
when such Variance will not be contrary to the Public interest, and
when, owing to conditions peculiar to the property, and not the p
result of the actions of the applicant, n literal enforcement of `.
the ,Ordinance would result in unnecessary and undue hardship.
Both Kidders and the Sporting Goods Store were once owned by Ii
Mr. Kidder. For this reason, both stores now share parking.
However, if this addition were added, it would take away about
five (5) parking spaces presently used by the Kidder Restaurant.

Memo to: Clermont Clty Council
From: CLty Manager
Subject; Broome Street Project
Date: April 9, 1981
The City Engineer will be present at Tuesdays meeting to present the plans
and specificntions for the Broome Street Project.
You may recall that for soma years we have been considering paving Broome
Street between 4th and 501 Streets, which is the only unpaved open street
in the City of Clermont.
over two years ago, the City held a Public Bearing on this matter, and con -
eluded that the street should be paved, with one third of the costs to be
borne by the City and two thirds by the abutting property owners.
Money to pave this street was included in the 1979-80 fiscal Year Budget,
but the construction was postponed for two reasons. First, the City Attorney
stated that before a formal Special Assessment Resolution could be adopted
for this project, final plans and specifications must be completed. Second,
the preliminary construction costs estimated bytileCity Engineer exceeded the amount budgeted.
In last year's budget session, it was decided thnt the street would only
be graded and compacted in a manner to minimize the inconvenience to the
residents along Chia street. However, at a Council Meeting last December,
Mr. Jones asked the City to construct the street, and the City Council
requested the City Engineer to draw up final plans and specifications.
The City Engineer has estimated the costs of this project to be $39,855.
If the Council wishes to proceed with this project, the City Council would
be required to pass a budget resolution to pay for the entire project costs
out of the City's cash reserves. Two thirds of this money would then be
repaid to the City by a special assessment district.
The City must also adopt a resolution declaring Special Assessments, pre-
pare and publish an assessment roll, and set an Equalization Board hearing
on the Assessments before this process can be completed.

ZONING: C-2 Coneral Commercial
ItHQ11Fap; Mr. Craig requests a rear yard setback variance from 25 feet required
to 20 feet 6 inches in order to construct an addition to his Sporting
Goods Business.
I
COMMENTS: This bulding is presently nonconforming since the Zoning Ordinance
requires a side yard of 12', and the East side of the Gun Shop has a
side yard of only one foot.
Section 26-40 of the Zoning Ordinance states that nonconforming
structures cannot be expanded except in conformity with the
Ordinance.
Section 26-29 of our 'Zoning Ordinance allows Variances to be issued
when such Variance will not he contrary to the Public interest, and
when, owing to conditions peculiar to the property, and not the
result of the actions of the applicant, a literal enforcement of
the ,Ordinance would result in unnecessary and undue hardship.
Both Kidders and the Sporting Goods Store were once owned by .
Mr. Kidder. For this reason, both stores now share parking.
However, if this addition were added, it would take away about
five (5) parking spaces presently used by the Kidder Restaurant.

Memo to: Clermont city council
From: City Manager
Subjects Odophus Tanks
Date: April 10, 1981
Two years ago, the City leased two Odophus Tanks at an annual cone of $500
for both tanks. The lease agreement also stated that (it the and of two
years, the City could purchase both tanks for $6,000 with all lease costs
deducted from this amount. Thin means that the City can now purchaso the
tanks for $5,000.
One Odophus Tank is located on Pitt Street, and the other on Lnke Shore
Drive. Odophus is a chemical that we place in our wnstc treatment• system
primarily to control hydrogen sulfide, (which corrodes lines) and to assist
in the removal of phosphates.
Since the use of these tanks and the chemical has been very successful,
I would recommend that we purchase these tanks from the City's Capital
Improvement Fund.

Bud Sampson of Springstead & Associates presented a report and
explained that a decision as to what type tan), is preferred
must be made in order to award the bid. There was extensive
discussion on the advantages and disadvantages of the pillar
tank versus the leg tank. It was determined that the pillar
tank would be a far more aesthetic focal point than the leg
tank and the City would benefit by using the column for a
satellite fire station and for storage. The liability factor
was felt to be far less with the pillar tank than the leg tank
also; the pillar tank could not be scaled.
81-37 A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCILMAN THOMAS AND SECONDED BY
COUNCILMAN CONLEY THAT THE LOW BIDDER, UNIVERSAL TANK AND
IRON WORKS, INC. BE AWARDED THE BID FOR CONTRACT NO. 1, WHOSE

motion because he felt it is an excessive expenditure.

Mr. Sampson recommended that the low bid for contract no. 2
81-38 be accepted. After discussion, A MOTION WAS MADE BY
