02-05-1979 Regular MeetingBUILDING•DE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS & APPE•
A meeting of the Building Code Board of Adjustments and Appeals was held in the Council
Chambers on rlonday, February 5, 1979. The meeting was called to order at 5:00 P.M. by
Chairman St. John, with the following members present: Pos. J. Winston, and Messrs. Jones,
Allison, and Wolfe. City officials present were: Acting City Manager and Finance Director
Sanchez, Building Official Nagel, and Public Works Director Smythe. Others present were
Mr. & Mrs. Neal V. Dauphin; iwlr. & Mrs. Stout: Mesdames Black and Smith; and Messrs. Edington,
Jolie, Filonchik, Longacre, and Fontaine. Representatives of K&E Construction, Messrs.
Kuharske and Edington, were also present.
Chairman St. John advised the purpose of the meeting was to consider the request of I~Ir.
and Mrs. Neal V. Dauphin to remove an out-of-city dwelling for relocation on his property
described as: West 15 feet of Lot 10, Lot 11, Unit 13, Sunnyside (northeast corner of
Seminole and Holly Streets) inasmuch as Mr. Dauphin had been refused a building permit
for the repairs/alterations to be made on the dwelling when it had been relocated.
Building Official Nagel appeared before the Board and presented photographs of the
building at its present location and a memorandum on particulars related to the case (a
copy of which is attached) and advised he supported his decision based on the following:
Section 2204.3 of the Southern Standard Building Code (MOVING OF BUILDINGS - BUILDING
OFFICIAL SHALL REJECT) and Section 26-44 of the City of Clermont Code of Ordinances
(MOVING OF STRUCTURES).
Trlr. Neal Dauphin and P4r. Milton Kuharske (K&E Construction) appeared before the Board in
support of the appeal advising it was their opinion that the house was sturdy and
structurally solid; That upon relocation on the property in the City, a new foundation,
roof, siding, and other such structural alterations would be constructed for a total
price of $16,700; and, That Mr. Dauphin was in possession of a large quantity of building
materials which will sufficiently complete both the interior and exterior of the building.
Several abutting and adjacent property owners voiced objection to the relocation of the
dwelling in the vicinity of their homes inasmuch as it could cause a decrease in the
value of their property. After much discussion, it was the consensus of the Board that
the repairs to be made to the dwelling would cause no more of an accumulation of
construction materials and debris than if an entirely new home had been constructed.
Following considerable discussion concerning monies to be spent, construction materials,
and proposed completion date, motion was made by Tor. Wolfe, seconded by Mr. Jones and
carried that the City Attorney prepare a contractural agreement between the City and
Mr. Dauphin, wherein Mr. Dauphin is to provide sufficient monies (to be deposited in an
escrow account) in an amount necessary to completely finance the removal, or demolition, of
the building to a site outside the city limits if it does not meet the requirements of
the Southern Standard Building Code or the City of Clermont Code of Ordinance and/or a
Certificate of Occupancy has not been issued within 6 calendar months from the date the
building arrives on the property. Mr. St. John voted in the negative on passage of the
motion.
The meeting was adjourned by Chairman St. John at 6:20 P.P~4.
