and Blackburn. Other officials present were: City Controller Fleming,

The Invocation was given by Councilman Byrd, followed by repeating
of the Pledge of Allegiance in unison by those present.
The Minutes of the meeting held March 25, 1975 were approved as
wri tten.
Mayor Smoak announced the first order of business to be a Public Hearing
to consider the following three requests for Variances by Ross Builders,
Inc., which, with consent of Council, because of their likeness, were
considered together:
A Variance of 2'6" in the Side -Yard setback requirement
of a corner lot in order to construct a decorative wing -
wall to their building located on Lot 1 in Block A of
Edgewood Place Subdivision.
A Variance of 6.36' in the Rear -Yard setback requirement
and 4.0' to the Side -Yard setback requirement in order
to construct a decorative wingwall and an uncovered patio
on their property described as Lot 3 in Block A of Edgewood
Place Subdivision.
A Variance of 6.36' in the Rear -Yard setback requirement
in order to construct a patio on their property described
as Lot 8 in Block A of Edgewood Subdivision.
Mr. Herbert A. Ross, President, appeared before Council in behalf of these
requests.
Following inquiry by Mayor Smoak, there was no one present who voiced
objection whereupon motion was made by Councilman Schroedel, seconded
by Councilman Oswalt and unanimously carried that the requests be
granted.
Mavor Smoak announced the next order of business to be a Public Hearing:to
consider request by Clermont Builders Supply, Inc. for the closing of
that portion of Osceola Street between West Lake Drive and Twelfth Street
Acting.City Manager Smythe, advised Council there were existing water
lines, gas line, sanitary sewer force main and collection lines in
the right-o-way of this street, which would necessitate the retaining
of quite a wide easement, should the street be closed. Mr. John
Bumbalough, an abutting property owner, appeared before Council
and inquired of access to his business located on this portion of Osceola,
should the street be closed, and he was advised this would be no
problem inasmuch as he would obtain ownership of one-half the street
right-o-way and still have access from Twelfth Street as presently.
Mr. Lawson Wolfe, President of Clermont Builders Supply, Inc. appeared
before Council in behalf of this request, and advised that in their
concrete block making business they utilized both sides of the bigger
portion of this section of Osceola Street which necessitated crossing
back and forth numerous times each day with heavy material -handling
MINUTES NP 1133
inachinory. Therefore, because both sides were ut•lized by them and because
of their main concern for the safety of both their employees and those
whom might be traveling on the street, desired that it be closed,
It was the opinion of Mayor Smoak that inasmuch as this area is in one
of the three designated 'transition Zones, he would question the advisability
of closing the street, and wondered if it not be possible to restrict
Thru Traffic in some way and thereby accomplish almost the same purpose.
Motion was made by Councilman Byrd, seconded-by.'Councilman Oswalt and
carried that City Attorney Baird be requested to research the legality,
of restricting traffic on this portion of Osceola in question for
report back to Council, and this hearing be continued until April 15th.
Mayor Smoak announced the next order of business to be a Public Hearing
to consider request by Clermont Builders Supply, Inc. for the closing
of that portion of Carroll Street between West Lake Drive and the west
boundary line of Government Lot 8. Mr. Wolfe advised Council this request
was being made in order to better utilize the property located on both
sides of this unimproved but dedicated street for their business
purposes. Following inquiry by Mayor Smoak, there was no one present
who voiced objection to the request. Motion was made by Councilman
Oswalt, seconded by Councilman Blackburn and unanimously carried
that the request be granted provided a survey is submitted showing exact
location of the existing sanitary sewer lift station in this area and/or
any other utilities with retainment of necessary easements for same.
Mayor Smoak announced the next order of business to be Public Hearing
to consider the proposed construction of a sanitary sewer system
in the Minnehaha Estates Subdivision and the assessments levied for
same. Mrs. Ruth Hillyer and the Messrs. Daw, Becker, Blasingame,
Young, Shepard, Sperry, Bell, Purvis, Caruso and Woodhouse appeared before
Council and inquired as to proposed location of the lines, methods of
payment of the assessments, proposed construction date, number of
outlets per property and location of same, etc. Upon conclusion of all
persons being heard that requested to do so, motion was made by
Councilman Byrd, seconded by Councilman Schroedel and unanimously carried
that the Public Hearing be declared closed, the Assessment Roll be
accepted and confirmed and City Attorney Baird be instructed to prepare
the necessary Resolution confirming the assessments for consideration
at the next Regular Meeting.
Mr. Dennis Wright, representative of the Lake Louisa Security Patrol,
appeared before Council and requested use of Bishop Field on July 18th
in order to sponsor a fund-raising benefit Donkey Baseball Game. He
assured Council that all precautions with regards care of the turf, etc.
would be taken. Motion was made by Councilman Oswalt, seconded by
Councilman Byrd and unanimously carried that the request be granted.
City Attorney Baird reminded all officials present who have not previously
filed the necessary Financial Disclosure Forms, that the deadline date
is May 15, 1975 at 12:00 Noon. Mr. Baird further reported that he had
contacted Attorney Duncan with regards Council rescinding the offer for
fuel allotments to W. E. Baker for his grove irrigation, and had been
advised Mr. Duncan would meet with Mr. Baker and then re -contact him.
Motion was made by Councilman Schroedel, seconded by Councilman
Blackburn and carried that the bills be paid.
City Clerk Carroll reported on requests received from Mr. John Torrez
to sponsor dances in the Jenkins Auditorium on April 19th, May loth
and May 17th, and, from Pablo Carron and Romerio Cruz to hold a wedding

reception and dance in the auditorium on April 2601. Motion was made
by Councilman Blackburn, seconded by Councilman Byrd and unanimously
carried that the requests be granted provided all rules and regulations
pertaining to use of the auditorium for dances are met.
City Clerk Carroll road a communication from Willie E. Creech wherein
he requested that he be removed from membership on the Building Code
Board of Appeals effective immediately, but that he would be glad to
assist in an unofficial capacity if needed.
Mayor Smoak asked that Council consider and propose recommendations
to be submitted at the next regular meeting for the following: Proposed
duties of the City Attorney in order that a written agreement might
be prepared, and, replacement- on the Building Code Board of Appeals
for the unexpireu term of Willie E. Creech, which is the remainder of
this year.
Mayor Smoak further requested that Mr. Smythe obtain the costs of the
city for the past year for electrical repairs and air conditioning
maintenance for report at the next meeting.

be postponed until the next regular meeting on April 15th.
