PUBLIC HEARING -VARIANCE REQUEST -LEE GIFFORD
City Council, sitting as a Board of Adjustment considered a request
by Mr. Lee Gifford for a Variance of 5 feet in the Front Yard Set-
back requirement of R1A Zoning, in order to construct a residence
on his property described as Lot 3 in Dickson Shores Subdivision.
Mr. Gifford had advised in his request that inasmuch as Lot 3 was
of irregular shape, it would be very difficult to design a residence
to meet R1A zoning requirements without penetrating into the seback
area. Mr. Ralph Havlin, spokesman for a group of abutting and
adjoining property owners to this location, appeared before Council
in opposition to any variance in the required front yard setback,
explaining there was an existing residence abutting this property
which had honored the required setback and thereupon a front building
line had been established and was in compliance with all regulations.
Mr. Max Judy, representing Mr. Gifford who was unable to be present,
advised that he was in agreement with the expression of Mr. Havlin,
and that a variance to the rear yard setback, if there be no opposi-
tion, would ably serve the same purpose as desired by Mr. Gifford.
Mr. Havlin advised the group had no opposition to a variance being
granted in the rear yard, whereupon motion was made by Councilman
Beals, seconded b Councilman Schroe a and unanimousl carried that
a 5 variance to t e required rearyar setback be granted.
BOY'S RANCH REQUEST
City Manager Tiffany reported a request had been received for per-
mission to sell beach items at Jaycee Beach on weekends to help
support the Florida Boys Ranch Foundation, Inc. of Groveland, such
items being beach balls, floats, etc. It was the opinion of Council-
man Schroedel that such items were dangerous, especially to the
younger children, and he would be opposed to the sale of them at
the beach. It was the opinion of Councilman Blackburn that if the
sale of such items to benefit a non-profit organization would not
be in conflict with the existing lessee of the Jaycee Beach
Restaurant, he would be in favor of granting the request, and there-
upon so moved. The motion died for lack of a second.
CITY MANAGER'S REPORT

referred back to the Planning & Zoning Commission for further study,
and City Manager Tiffany agreed to do so.
Councilman Beals requested to comment prior to introduction of the
proposed Ordinance providing for an increase of Council members
salaries, wherein he advised he would rather allocate compensation

that such proposed increase be declared a referendum and placed on
the ballot of the city election to be held in December.

COMMENTS BY VISITORS
Mr. Art Ekiert, local resident recently retired from the U. S.

Security Administration, appeared before Council and advised as
follows: That, though he was retired, he continued to receive
requests at his home and place of business for assistance because
he was acquainted with the residents of South Lake County;
That if Council so desired, and would provide a public office
space, he would be glad to donate his services one day each
week in offering assistance regarding Social Security. Council
felt this was a very commendable offer by Mr. Ekiert, and the
matter was referred to City Manager Tiffany to set up the
necessary schedule and office space.
Mr. Tom Thompson of 1777 Settle Street, inquired of Council as
to the animal control during the evening hours, advising that
this appeared to be the time when dogs were observed running
loose and in packs. The matter was referred to City Manager
Tiffany.
Mr. Faye Morrow of 2119 South Lake Shore Drive, inquired if
anything could be done to have the storage building condemned
that is located on the Minnehaha Estates private beach. This
matter was referred to Building Official Nagel.
There being no further business to be brought before Council at this time, the meeting
was adjourned by Mayor Pro-Tem Byrd at 8:45 P. M.

Due to irregular shape of lot it is very difficut to design a home that will meet
or exceed R1A Zoning requirements without requesting a front or rear yard variance.
We are asking for a 5' front yard variance to be able to construct the proposed
house on this lot.

The International City Management Association, National League of
Cities and the National League of Counties are sponsoring a series of
Wastewater Grant seminars across the Nation. The seminar for this area is
being held August 26 and 27 in Atlanta.
Program topics include (1) discussion of technical aspects of the
grant application and follow-up process, (2) dialogue among local government
officials on wastewater problem solving, (3) question, answer and suggestions
for Federal and State officials regarding streamlining the application
process, (4) role of consulting engineers, (5) financing, and (6) facilities

Cost of the two-day seminar would be $30 plus room, meals, and
