Leesburg Chrysler/Plymouth.

City Manager Hopkins reported that the bids were in order and that it was his recommenda-
tion that the low bid as submitted by Superior GMC trucks, Inc. be accepted, whereupon
motion was made by Councilman Smoak, seconded by Councilman Beals and carried that
the City Manager's recommendation be accepted and the bid be awarded to Superior GMC
Trucks, Inc.

MINUTES NQ 845
the recommendation of the City Manager be accepted and the bid be awarded to W.M. Teal.
Mayor Smith announced the next order of business to be a Puclic Hearing wherein
Council would consider request of Martin Graham for a variance to Section 26-79.30
(b) of the Zoning Ordinance in order to locate a sign nearer than fifty feet from
intersecting street lines at the shopping center under construction on East Highway
#50. There was no one present who commented on this request. It was consensus
of Council that to enforce the required setback would not create unnecessary hardship
with regards location of the sign and could quite possibly prevent the setting
of a precedent with regards requests in the future for signs along Highway #50,
whereupon motion was made by Councilman Beals, seconded by Councilman Schroedel
and carried that this request be denied.
Messrs. Fred Schroedel and Ben Jarrett, members of the Official Board of Cooper
Memorial Library, appeared before Council requesting authorization for the City
Manager to sign their reapplication for federal funds to assist in their plans for
an addition to the Library. It was consensus of Council that this request be granted
and the City Manager be so authorized.
Mrs. Dorothy Peeno, coordinator for the "Meals on Wheels" program, appeared before
Council and requested permission to use the kitchen facilities at Jenkins Auditorium
for this program from 7 A.M. to 12:00 noon daily, five days per week. Mrs. Peeno
advised Council that arrangements had been made for their refrigeration needs
elsewhere and that they would install their own cabinet facilities. She further
advised that with 24 to 48 hour advance notice, they would be able and willing to
use facilities elsewhere in cases of advance bookings for the auditorium, and
would cooperate with Mrs. Sheldon, custodian of the building, in this respect. It
was consensus of Council that this was a very worthwhile program as proposed and
felt the City should cooperate in every way possible. Motion was made by Councilwoman
Watson, seconded by Councilman Beals and carried that this request be granted.
City Manager Hopkins submitted his report both orally and written and a copy is
attached hereto.
Councilman Schroedel, liaison representative to the Library Board reported as
follows: That the Library would be holding a book sale in the month of November; That
the Library Board members were hopeful of making some sort of arrangement with the
City to acquire the building presently occupied by The Exchange Bank of Clermont,
and that the Library Board was having extreme difficulties in collections of books
and overtime penalties.
Motion was made by Councilman Smoak, seconded by Councilman Schroedel and carried
that the bills be paid.
City Clerk Carroll read a communication from City Attorney Langely wherein he submitted
his resignation, effective January 1, 1973, due to additional duties which he has assumed
as a result of his having been recently elected to the Florida State House of
Representatives.
Motion was made by Councilman Smoak, seconded by Councilman Schroedel and unanimously
carried that this resignation be accepted with regrets.
City Manager Hopkins was requested to invite each Attorney within the City to submit
a resume to Council with regards the position of City Attorney, if they be interested.
City Manager Hopkins presented a request by Ben Wade for a lakefront easement on
Lake Minnehaha, directly in front of and running the width of, his property described
as Lot 150 in Clermont Heights Subdivision. Motion was made by Councilman Beals,
seconded by Councilwoman Watson and carried that this easement be granted.

MINUTES NQ 846

Dear Sirs and Madam:
As you know, I was recently elected to the House of Repre-
sentatives and it is with deep regrets that I feel that the
press of business added to this new position will make it
impossible to continue as your City Attorney.
I have enjoyed the seven and one-half years I have worked
with the City. It has been a real experience. If there is
any way that I can be of assistance to the City in the future
please fetl free to call on me. It is my preference that this
resignation take effect January 1, 1973, if this is suitable
to the Council.
r erely yours

Subject: pylon Sign variance
Clermont Center
Dear Mr. Hopkins: -....,I
Attached is my check in the amount of $10.00 as a variance fee. Attach-
ed also is a parking lot layout on which I have shown in red the parking
lot lights and the sign pylon.
I am requesting approval for the pylon sign location to be moved from
I
position A to position B on the property. This location change if
approved will help the traffic flow in the center and help prevent
customers cars from possible accidents as the present sign location
is in the middle of a double row of parking and the requested change
is to a less accessable point on the parking lot. Also that part of
the parking lot at position B will have a more even distribution of light.
Very Truly yours
e
