REGULAR MEEVINC
A Regular Mecting of. tho City Council of the City of Clermont wail hold in the council
Chnniborn on Tuesday, February 24, 1970. The mooting wail called to order at 7:30 11. M.
by Mayor Claude E. Smoak, Jr. with the following members present: Councilmmi Blackburn,
Schroedel and Byrd. Other officinla present were: Acting City Manager Smythe, City
Attorney Baird, Deputy Clerk Dollar and Finance Director Williams. Others present were.
Mr. and Mro. J. Sargent, Messrs. Mueller, Miller, Czech, Beale, Daniel, and four political
science students. A representative of the Sentinel/Star won also present.
The Invocation wan given by Councilman Byrd, followed by repenting of the Fledge of
Allegiance in unison by thoso present.
The Minutes of the Regular Meeting held February 17, 1976 and of the Special Meeting hold
February 23, 1976 were approved ❑s written.
Mayor Smoak announced the first order of business to be a Public Bcaring to consider
request of Jane Wilkins of Jane's Interiors for a variance to Section 26-24 (D) (2) (f)
(C2 NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL DISTRICT -SIGNS) of the Zoning Ordinance in order to place
a second marquee sign at her business located on Lot 20 in City Block 89. Since the
ordinance permits only one (1) wall or marquee sign, and one sign already exists on the
building, Mrs. Wilkins stated in her appeal that her reason for requesting a variance
was that the second sign would enhance the appearance of the building. It was the
opinion of Councilman Byrd, following his inspection, that this sign would be in order
as it would match the existing sign on the building and have a balancing effect.
Councilman Schroedel stated that he was in favor of Jane's Interiors move to downtown
and therefore moved that this variance be granted. The motion was seconded by Council-
man Byrd and carried. Councilman Blackburn stated he voted in favor of the motion as
he, too, felt the sign would enhance the appearance of the building.
The request of Mr. James W. Finley for a sign variance which had been tabled from the
last council meeting was reconsidered. The Acting City Manager informed Council that
the original sign size was misinterpreted and the allowed size is 171.75 feet. The
requested variance encompasses 220 square feet. Mr. Finley was not present at this
hearing although his presence had been requested by the Building Official. Following
a discussion in which mixed feeling amoung council was expressed as to Mr. Finley's
request for a variance to add lettering to fit in with the existing sign structure, motion
was made by Councilman Blackburn and seconded by Councilman Schroedel that this request
be denied. The motion failed to carry with Councilmen Blackburn and Schroedel voting
Aye and Councilman Byrd and Mayor Smoak voting Naye. Motion was made by Councilman
Byrd, seconded by Mayor Smoak and carried that this request be tabled until a fifth
member of council has been elected and seated on the Council follwwing a special election
on March 9th.
Mayor Smoak announced Council would now sit as a Board of Adjustment to hear the request
of Jehovah's Witnesses Church for a Conditional Use Permit to use the property described
as Lots 11, 12, and 13, Block 7, City of Clermont for expansion of the church sanctuary.
Acting City Manager Smythe advised that at their meeting on February 3, 1976, the
Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this request with the following
conditions into which he had incorporated: The parking spaces shall be marked by
concrete parking stops, which were omitted from the P&Z recommendations:
1. The building is placed not less than twenty-five (25) feet from any
property line.
2. Off street parking shall be provided for church use at a ratio not
less than fourteen (14) square feet of parking space for each square
foot of floor space provided for worshippers within the church
sanctuary. The parking area shall be grassed area utilizing Bahia
grass; however, ten (10) percent of the spaces shall be asphalt or
concrete surfaced. The parking spaces shall be marked by concrete
curb stops. The grassed parking area shall be maintained in good

5. The structure or use cannot be expanded except no granted by the
City Council. under a Conditional Use Permit.
6. The project must conform to all provisions of zoning and other
applicable ordinances.
Mayor Smoak inquired if Mr. Mueller, representing the church had any comments to make
before council and Mr. Mueller advised that they would abide by all the conditions
set forth by the P&Z Commission recommendations. There was no one present who had
any objections to this request. Motion was made by Councilman Blackburn, seconded
by Councilman Schroedel and unanimously carried that the request be granted subject
to the recommendations of the P&Z Commission and the added recommendation of the
Acting City Manager concerning parking stops.
Acting City Manager Smythe submitted his report both orally and written and a copy is
attached hereto.
Finance Director Williams reported the city's revenues are comfortably ahead of bud-
geted expenditures and that he is currently working on a procedure to insure maximim
return on temporary surplus funds by investing them during the times when they are
idle. Mayor Smoak inquired if those funds are currently in short term We. Mr. Williams
advised that we had a regular schedule of investments and are working on a procedure
to insure that we have funds available in a very liquid state.
Mayor Smoak reported as follows: That a work meeting of the Lake County League of
Cities had been held in Leesburg on February 18th with the basic topic of discussion
being devoted to roads, bridges and solid waste disposal; That the membership voted
to approach the County Commission with a new state law mandating the county commission
to separate their county funds into those funds which benefit all the residents and
and request to be on their agenda to make this formal presentation and that all of the
Mayors of Lake County will attend; That additionally the membership voted to send
a representative to the legislative session the last week in April; That now that we
are getting into the baseball and softball season that he would request the Acting
City Manager to review the earlier recommendations on the Clarence Bishop Field light-
ing and present them to Council at their next meeting so that some definite steps can
be taken prior to the season opening; Reminded that the State League of Cities Pre -
Legislative Conference will be held in Tampa on March 1st and 2nd and urged all who
can to attend this meeting; That a city election to fill the vacancy in Group One
will be held on conjunction with the March 9th Presidential Primary. Two candidates
for this position, Mr. Charles B. Beals and Mrs. Edith M. Sargent were present and
recognized from the chair.
Councilman Schroedel inquired the status of the city dock and was advised by Mayor
Smoak that he had word that it had been approved by Tallahassee and formal approval
should be received by the County no later than the middle of March and funds will be
available immediately thereafter; that it was his hope that a workshop meeting will
be scheduled with the contractor to review his bid and to accept or reject his proposal.
Mayor Smoak read a communication from the Future Homemakers of America wherein they
requested permission to hold a dance in Jenkins Auditorium on February 28, 1976. Motion
was made by Councilman Blackburn, seconded by Councilman Schroedel and carried that
this request be granted provided all rules and regulations as pertains to dances held
in the Auditorium are met.
MIND' IS NQ 1252
Mayor Smoak read it communication from Plrn. Kathleen Vanonconenllon exprenning her
plcaouru in Clermont'n inLarent in the Bicentennial. Wagon Train Pilgrimage in which ails
in taking part and thanked Council for their intarent and cooperation. Mayor Smollk
ndvinod that Mrs. Vasconnell.ou had verbally stated to hi.m that she would make a written
requoot for a leather western Jacket to be Imprinted with "Clermont, Florida Bicen-
L•ennial", but to data the written request had not been received. With regarda financial
aaatatance to mro. Vasconaellos, motion wan made by Councilman Byrd, acconded by
Councilman Blackburn and carried that Mayor Smoak authorize to communicate with the
Chairwoman of the Bicentennial Committee with regards thin matter.
Acting City Manager Smythe reminded Council of the Orange Blossom Breakfast on February
25th, sponsored by the Clermont Travel Service.
With regards to road priority improvements to be submitted to the Board of County
Commissioners, Acting City Manager Smythe submitted his recommendations for a five year
plan and a copy 1s attached. It wan agreed to defer discussion of these recommendations
until a Council work meeting to be held on Friday, February 27th, at 4 P.M. In the
meantime Acting City Manager Smythe was requested to check with the Lake County Road
Department to ascertain 1f they now have control over SR 561; the latest date the
city can submit input for this report and who has responsibility for maintaining the
Farm to Market Road. Mayor Smoak also requested that a schedule to set up for future
road priorities in advance of the due date of the report so a reasonable presentation
can be made.
Acting City Manager Smythe advised that on June 9, 1970 Council moved to make a land
trade, a strip 18 feet in width and fronting on 8th Street, with Welborn Daniel for the
installation of sewer mains into the city parking lot, and all located in City Block 80; ...
That this deal was not consumated at that time for various reasons and now Mr. Daniel
is ready to build and has requested that instead of the original 18' strip on the north
that a 10' strip of city owned property on the east of his property be traded. Acting
City Manager Smythe advised that he was in concurrence with this request as the 18'
strip only would .leave a 5' area south of a city owned structure, also that we are trading
a similar parcel by doing this. He further recommended that instead of a property ex-
change, that the city deed to Mr. Daniel the 10' strip for the consideration of a 15'
easement to facilitate the existing sewer line, his reasoning being that a driveway is
proposed in the easement area for access to the proposed private parking area of the
new building, and if, in fact at a later date the configuration of the city parking
area was changed to preclude rear access to this building the private parking area
would have access to a public ROW; also the liability incurred in this area, which most
certainly would become an entrance to the city parking lot, would not be desirable.
Motion was made by Councilman Blackburn, seconded by Councilman Schroedel and carried
that the recommendations of the Acting City Manager to deed to Mr. Welborn Daniel a
10' strip of city owned property abutting the north line of Mr. Daniel's property for
the consideration of a 15' easement to facilitate the existing sewer line be accepted
and that the city not be held liability for damage caused by maintenance or repair
to any utility contained within that easment and that the City Attorney be directed
to prepare the necessary deed and easement.
Motion was made by Councilman Blackburn, seconded by Councilman Schroedel and carried
that the bills be paid.
Councilman Blackburn offered and moved the adoption of a RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF CLERMONT, LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA, GRANTING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO
ALLOW CONSTRUCTION TO EXTEND A CHURCH SANCTUARY and the motion was seconded by Council-
man Byrd and carried. The RESOLUTION was read, by title only, by Mayor Smoak and the
Number 269 assigned to it.
Councilman Blackburn offered and moved the adoption of a RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF CLERMONT, LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA, EXPRESSING SUPPORT FOR THE MINNEOLA POST
OFFICE and the motion was seconded by Councilman Schroedel and carried. The RESOLUTION
was read in its entirety by Mayor Smoak and the Number 270 assigned to it.

in and pressure tested. Some clean up and patching of cuts remain.
The Sanitary Sewer Extension Project has been completely laid out but
construction has not started. All lateral locations will be reviewed and
relocated as necessary.

F11014: Acting City Manager
SUBJECT: DOT 5 Year Road Plan
1976-1901
DATE: February 24, 1976
For information the following is
the milage of primary and secondary State
roads in the city:
SR 25 (US 27) State Maint. 2.4 Mi Yellow
"
SR 50 State Maint.
"
3,1 Mi.
2.9 Mi. Red
SR 561
SR 561A County Maint.
Mi. Blue
Total
J.7
It is quite difficult to make a 5 year recommendation for the aforementioned
roads. SR 25 would appear to be located and designed to meet modern criteria,
SR 50 is programmed to be widened and up dated in 1977-70.
SR 561A is in good condition and the county maintains it in regards to
I
patching, striping, and mowing.
This leaves SR 561 on which to make some sort of recommendation. The
general condition is fair and the state patches and mows as often as can
probably be expected.
eed attention in regards to their condition,
fThere irst is generally two areas that n
gennerallyin thearea
earof the fishingth epieret and
dirailroad
nneola acrosske iveshe
The curb radius
the abandoned R/R crossing smoothed and the remaining R/R crossing
improved.
The second area of concern is that portion of roadway crossing West Lake.
It is apparently built on some unstable fill and slowly settles into the
lake as Y o the ears g by.
I suppose that if we reach far out and rnme up with a proposal I would
suggest that SR 561 be combined with SR 25 to SR 50 and thence East to
12th Street and south on the present ROW. The roadway then abandoned
would revert to the city for use and improvement as we see fit. I would
propose that this request be scheduled after the above improvements are
requested and have been made.
Minneola Lake Drive in the Jaycee Beach area should be then closed to traffic
and used for beach parking with dead end streets feeding into it from the
East, West, and South. This would greatly improve the beach area from
the parking and safety standpoint.
It also might reduce the boat ramp usage and it might revert to a city
sponsored facility by whom it was built to start with and maintained over
these many years. The third plus I can visualize with this plan is the
ability to possibly secure this area to restrict vandalism and make it
more conducive to collecting revenue so that it may be maintained more on
a user basis.

I realize this proposal may not be original but respectfully submit this as
my recommendation for a five year plan.
