REGULAR MEETING
A Regular Meeting of the City Council of the City of Clermont was held in the
Council Chambers on Tuesday, July 25, 1972. The meeting was called to order at
7:30 P.M. by Mayor Don E. Smith with the following members present: Councilwoman
Watson and Councilmen Smoak, Beals and Schroedel. Other officials present were:
City Manager Hopkins, City Clerk Carroll, City Attorney Langley, Director of
Community Services Smythe and Chief of Police Tyndal. Others present were: The
Messrs. Phil Edwards, Henry Czech, E. L. Schumann, Don Ware, J. M. VanderMeer and
Herman Potash. A representative of the Orlando Sentinel was also present.
The Invocation was given by Councilman Beals, followed by repeating of the Pledge
of Allegiance in unison by those present.
Mayor Smith announced the first order of business to be a Public Hearing to consider
request of Herman Potash for the closing of all that portion of an unnamed street
adjacent to Lake Dot that lies southeast of a line formed by the northwest corner
of Block 59 to a point on the lakeshore of Lake Dot that is South 45 degrees, west
of the northwest corner of Block 59 and lies northwest of a line extended due
west from the northwest corner of Lot 6, Block 60 to the lakeshore of Lake Dot, and,
All that part of Broome Street from the western right-o-way of Fifth Street to the
lakeshore of Lake Dot. Upon inquiry to Mr. Potash if he had a survey to submit
of the property described in his request, he replied that he only had a survey of
the abutting property, which he owns. Mr. Henry Czech questioned Council taking
any action on such a request not knowing how much property was involved inasmuch
as there was no survey submitted and the recorded plat does not reflect that
dimensions of this undeclared/unnamed street. It was the opinion of Councilman
Schroedel that the portion of Broome Street which Mr. Potash had requested to be
closed, should be left open in that it would be needed to aid traffic flow from
8th Street to East Avenue, should the portion between Fifth and East be constructed.
It was consensus of Council that no action be taken on this request until such time
as Mr. Potash obtains a survey of the area showing the lake's mean high water mark,
at which time Mayor Smith declared that this hearing be continued.
Mayor Smith announced that Council would now consider the request of officials
of the Church of God by Faith for the closing of that portion of the Unnamed ten
foot alley lying south of the northeast corner of Lot 14, to the southeast corner
of Lot 15, all within Lincoln Park Subdivision. There was no one present who
voiced objection to this request. City Manager Hopkins advised that a survey of
this property had not been submitted, however, the dimensions showing the beginning
and the terminus of the property appears on the recorded plat, and, that the Church
of God by Faith, Inc. owned the property on either side. Motion was made by
Councilman Beals, seconded by Councilman Smoak and carried that this request be
granted and the City Attorney be requested to prepare the necessary Ordinance for
introduction at the next meeting.
Mr. Don Ware, owner of the Crest Restaurant and Lounge, appeared before Council
and requested permission to remain open to sell alcoholic beverages until 2:A.M.
seven days a week. It was consensus of Council that in view of increased competition
from neighboring communities who had allowed extended closing hours, and the
proposed influx in the near future of hotel/motel type complexes which would offer
still further competition, that this request be granted. Motion was made by
Councilman Beals, seconded by Councilman Smoak and carried that the City Attorney be
instructed to prepare the necessary Ordinance.
Councilman Smoak introduced AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 3-4 OF THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF CLERMONT, FLORIDA: DEFINING THE HOURS OF SALE OF ALCOHOLIC
AND INTOXICATING BEVERAGES: PROVIDING ADDITIONAL HOURS OF SALE OF ALCOHOLIC AND
INTOXICATING BEVERAGES WITHIN CERTAIN ESTABLISHMENTS: PROVIDING DEFINITIONS and
the ORDINANCE was read in full for a first reading by the City Attorney.
Mr. Phil Edwards, Lake County Pollution Control Director, appeared before Council
and urged that they join the proposed Oklawaha River Basin Improvement Council.
Upon inquiry to Mr. Edwards as to what this proposed new council could offer
MINUTES N4 828
that existing authorities and/or commissions could not, he replied that they
would be able to allocate funds.
Councilman Beals reported that he had received a complaint with regards a house
trailer being parked in a residential area, and inquired of the existing regulations
pertaining to such. He was advised of existing Ordinance No. 46 which allows temporary
parking for a 72 hour period, with permission, but that it had not been strictly
enforced. Mr. J. M. VanderMeer advised Council that Lake County has an Ordinance
pertaining to trailers which allows them to be parked in residential areas, but
restricting them to be parked in either the side or rear yard. It was consensus
of Council that the City Manager obtain a copy of this Ordinance for their
study and consideration and possible adoption of a similar one.
Councilman Smoak introduced AN ORDINANCE UNDER THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE
CITY OF CLERMONT, LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 80 BY DELETING THERE. --
FROM THE PHRASE WHO SHALL BE A QUALIFIED ELECTOR OF THE CITY" AND SUBSTITUTING
THEREFOR THE FOLLOWING PHRASE WHO SHALL BE A RESIDENT OF LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA"
and the Ordinance was read in full for a first reading by the City Attorney.
Councilman Schroedel offered and moved the immediate adoption of, under emergency
measures, AN ORDINANCE UNDER THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF CLERMONT, LAKE
COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 80 BY DELETING THEREFROM THE PHRASE
"WHO SHALL BE A QUALIFIED ELECTOR OF THE CITY" AND SUBSTITUTING THEREFOR THE
FOLLOWING PHRASE "WHO SHALL BE A RESIDENT OF LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA" and the motion
was seconded by Councilman Smoak. The ORDINANCE was read in full by City
Attorney Langley and upon roll call vote on passage of the motion, the result was:

There was considerable discussion with regards the Frye/Brotherson matter, and
Councilman Smoak reported that Mr. Brotherson had agreed to deed back to the city the
seventy five feet of property in question in return for an easement over same
and a deed to twenty feet of the West Avenue right-o-way. Mr. Smoak further
reported that Mr. Frye had advised him that nothing would be acceptable with him
except a deed to the seventy five feet. In order to resolve the matter, it was
the suggestion of Councilman Smoak that Council consider reducing the West Avenue
right-o-way from its present one hundred feet to sixty feet from Seminole Street
to Chestnut. City Manager Hopkins was requested to find out where the present
street lies in the right-o-way and report back to Council.
The meeting was adjourned by Mayor Smith.

Dear Sirs:
A request is herein placed before you for your consideration
by Henderson Coin Laundry, 790 Minneola Avenue.
Subject of the request is for a 30 day, grace period to implement
the installation of our sewer system. The reason for this ^xtension
is as follows:
1. Hook up from the Laundry on Minneola Avenue was not feasible
due to elevation and plumbing. A hook up is much more suited
to our needs if made on eighth Street. For this reason plans
were made along this line. However this lateral has been
installed only in the past couple weeks, somewhat later that
first estimated.
2. The plumber lined up to do the installation has been on
vacation and just returned.
3. Another reason for the request is that the charge for the
use of the sewer is considerably more than a home owner
and would prove a hardship in view of the already high cost
of installation.
This request is respectfully made by:
Frank M. Henderson and
David F. Henderson _
