City Clerk Howe read the titles aloud. City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 Development Services Planner Kruse presented the items. The applicant/owner, First Baptist Church of Clermont, Inc., would like to develop an assisted living facility within their campus. The subject parcel is located on the southeast corner of Hartwood Marsh Road and Hancock Road. On February 27, 2018, the City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit, which allowed for the construction of the church sanctuary, multipurpose buildings, outdoor recreation fields and a parking garage for the church facility. As part of the request, an assisted living facility was shown on the site plan. The approved Conditional Use Permit did not allow for an assisted living facility. The addition of this use would require a separate public hearing process. The church is now moving forward with this request. Approximately eight acres have been designated as a site for the assisted living facility. In order to comply with the Comprehensive Plan, the land use must align with the request. The existing Low Density Residential land use does not permit assisted living facilities, and the applicant is requesting to change the land use designation from low density to high density residential. Policy 1.6.3 under the High Density Residential Land Use category permits assisted living facilities as a Planned Unit Development with a maximum intensity of a 3.0 floor area ratio. With the companion Planned Unit Development Ordinance 2024-019, the applicant would be able to develop this project in conformance with the City's Comprehensive Plan. The City has the ability to serve the project with applicable City services. The traffic impacts from this project were considered de minimis. The project is not in conflict with any provision of the City's Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-018. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended denial, 4-1. The applicant is. also requesting to rezone the 8.44+/- acre parcel from R-1 Single Family Medium Density to Planned Unit Development (to allow for the development of an Assisted Living Facility. The current use of the property is a Master Planned Church Facility and Campus. This item was tabled at the May 28 and June 11, 2024, City Council meetings and introduced at the July 23, 2024, City Council meeting. The applicant has since revised the proposed master site plan. The new layout has reduced the Independent Living/Assisted Living building from three -stories to two -stories in height. In addition, the Memory Care building has been re -positioned close to Hancock Road and the Independent Living/Assisted Living building has been moved to the east side of the project. The project boundary has not changed from the original submittal and is still contained within the 8.44+/- acre parcel. Updated elevations were provided showing the project. Other minor changes were identified, such as the addition of an emergency access point and additional parking spaces. If approved, this Planned Unit Development shall only allow for the Independent Living/Assisted Living use within the 8.44 acres. Any other uses will require an amendment. Staff is able to support the project with the proposed changes and recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-019. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended denial, 4-1 on the original three-story proposal and layout. Attorney Robin Drage was present on behalf of the applicant. They are in agreement with staff s recommendation of approval. The project was downsized, including the three story building at 55 feet down to a two story at 38 feet. Ms. Drage presented a PowerPoint that reviewed the conditions of the Planned Unit Development, request for rezoning and the overall look and use of the project. Mr. Lawson, Lawson Group Architects, Inc. and N21 Group, is the architect and developer of the project. The project is separate from the church and not involved in any way. As faith based developers of senior housing communities, they seek to find nearby churches to form relationships. 2 City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 Consideration was given on comments from staff and residents and the project was updated with increased distances from setbacks, and reducing the size and scale of the project. The facility will accommodate 132 Independent Living Units and 36 Memory Care Units. Dave Wright, Traffic Engineer, spoke on traffic generated and stated that most of the traffic will be from staff. According to the TTE trip generation manual, the estimation is 453 cars per day to and from the site. The estimate is 30 cars during the morning peak hour and 40 cars during the afternoon peak hour. Ms. Drage stated that the project engineer is available should there be any further questions. Mayor Murry opened the public hearing. Sue Cordova, 2768 Kingston Ridge Drive — spoke in opposition.

City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 Council Member Myers stated that she received many emails on this project. The concern is traffic, noise, and property value. For those reasons, she was opposed to the request. Council Member Howard asked to review the numbers of units and estimated staff provided. Mr. Lawson stated that there would be 168 beds total; 132 will be in the Independent Living units with 36 in the Memory Care units and there would be 77 staff members. Discussion ensued on the parking ratio for the Independent Living units as well as staffing in the Memory Care units. Council Member Howard said he is not in support of the project and it does not belong in the location. Council Member Gonzalez moved to approve Item 19.Ordinance No. Ordinance No. 2024- 018. First Baptist Church SSCPA: seconded by Council Member Pines. Mayor Murry stated that he liked the project with the updates from the comments from staff and the community.

Council Member Gonzalez moved approve Item 20. Ordinance No. Ordinance No. 2024- 019. First Baptist Church Rezoning_ with the height chang_ a from 55 ft. to 38 ft.: seconded by Council Member Pines. Council Member Myers commented that this would change the community's day -today living. Council Member Pines asked City Attorney Mantzaris to explain the traffic study presented. City Attorney Mantzaris stated that with a rezoning application it must be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Once determined, the next step is to see if there is an overriding issue to deny. One of the common issues is traffic, which needs to have substantial competent evidence by a competent expert. The transportation expert spoke to state that traffic would be de minimus from this project to show no substantial competent evidence to deny for that reason. The motion passed by roll call vote 3-2 with Council Member Howard and Council Member Mvers opposing. Mayor Murry recessed the Council Meeting at 8:24 pm. The Council Meeting reconvened at 8:34 pm.

City Clerk Howe read the titles aloud. Development Services Director Henschel presented all three items. The applicant, Daly Design Group, would like to develop a 123-acre project adjacent to Old Highway 50 and south of the Florida Turnpike. The applicant desires to construct a 130 lot single-family subdivision. The property is currently in Lake County but within the City's service area. The applicant is requesting voluntary annexation into the City. The city limits are abutting to the south of the property next to the Plaza Collina development. The applicant is seeking utility services in order to develop a 130 lot single-family subdivision. The applicant is also requesting a large-scale comprehensive plan amendment and a rezoning to R-3. The project is located at the northern boundary of the City's Joint Planning Area and Interlocal Service Boundary Agreement. The City can provide adequate public facilities and services, with water and wastewater service being available at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025. The property meets the requirements of annexation by adjacency to the City of Clermont boundaries, under Florida Statutes 171.043. Staff is able to support the request and recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-030. With the annexation, a future land use map amendment is required. The applicant is requesting the City to designate the property with a future land use of Low Density Residential, which permits up to three dwelling units per acre. The property is currently designated as Urban Low Density within Lake County, which permits up to four dwelling units per acre. This amendment would be an overall reduction in density. Since this project is more than 50 acres, a large-scale comprehensive plan review is required. The Council voted to transmit this project for review on August 13, 2024. The City has received four responses from the state agencies. Three were no comment and one was no adverse impact. The development proposal for this parcel does not conflict with the Low Density Residential future land use within the City's Comprehensive Plan. The property is within the City's service area, and the City is able to provide services. Staff supports the applicant's request for a change from Lake County Urban Low Density to City of Clermont Low Density Residential and recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-031. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval, 5-0. The applicant is requesting a rezoning as part of the annexation process into the City of Clermont for the 123-acre property. The applicant previously proposed several different development layouts with increased intensities and densities, which did not meet the City's requirements or the requirements within the Joint Planning Area with Lake County. In order to develop the property, the applicant needs central water and sewer from the City. The applicant is requesting R-3 Residential/Professional District Zoning. 10 City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 The property has historically been used for agricultural purposes. The applicant has provided a conceptual site layout showing the lots would conform to the R-3 Residential/Professional District. The applicant has provided a conceptual lot layout showing the lots dispersed throughout three village locations. The lots will be a minimum of 75 feet wide and 100 feet deep, with a minimum square footage of 7,500 square feet per lot. Since the property consists of approximately 53 acres of wetlands, the total number of lots will be 130 single-family lots, with a density of 1.85 dwelling units per acre. This is a reduction under the previously considered conceptual plans that were presented and less than the current Lake County Future Land Use Designation of Urban Low, that permits up to four dwelling units per acre. Staff has reviewed the application and the proposed project about the City's Land Development Code. The applicant is not requesting any variances at this time for the development of this project and is not a Planned Unit Development. School concurrency shall be met as a requirement prior to site plan approval and final platting. The applicant has submitted a traffic impact analysis, which indicates the project, is not expected to cause any roadways to exceed its Level of Service (LOS). A traffic review will be conducted during the site plan review process as well. The project will be required to meet all the Land Development Regulations for roadway widths, landscaping, setbacks, etc. Since the project will be developed under the R-3 Residential/Professional District Zoning, staff is able to support the request and recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-032. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval 5-0. The applicant, Bill Mackey of Daly Design Group was present. They have been working with staff on this project to present to Council. They are available for any questions. Mayor Murry opened the public hearing. Samii Yakovetic, 4480 Powederhorn Place — expressed concern with lack of green space preservation. Charlene Forth, 939 W.

City Clerk Howe read the titles aloud. 12 City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 Development Services Planner Kruse presented the items. The applicant, LPG Urban and Regional Planners, represents a client that would like to add additional property to an approved self -storage project that City Council approved at the February 27 meeting. The project has not been constructed and the applicant has redesigned the site to incorporate the additional 2.29 acres into the project. The property is located east of US Highway 27 and north of Hooks Street, adjacent to the Ford of Clermont. The subject property is contiguous to the City of Clermont boundaries. The City is able to serve the property and the applicant is requesting voluntary annexation into the City. Annexation of this parcel meets the requirements under Florida Statutes 171 for voluntary annexation. Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-034. With the annexation, a Future Land Use map amendment is required. The applicant is requesting a small- scale comprehensive plan amendment. This amendment would change the Future Land Use designation from Lake County's Regional Commercial to City Commercial. The proposed development is consistent with the comprehensive plan within the Commercial Land Use Category. The Future Land Use Policy 1.9.5 indicates, Residential Self -Storage Facilities shall be allowed as a Conditional Use Permit and shall be limited to 1.0 Floor Area Ratio. The proposed project is under the 1.0 floor area ratio. Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-035 to change the future land use designation from Lake County Regional Commercial to City Commercial. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval 5-0. The applicant is requesting a rezoning for the vacant parcel. The proposed rezoning request would change the current zoning from Lake County R-6 Urban Residential District to City C-2 General Commercial zoning. The C-2 General Commercial zoning category is compatible with the uses and improvements of the surrounding area, and is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. The applicant proposes the rezoning to allow for a self -storage facility with a Conditional Use Permit. The project will be compatible with the surrounding development pattern and not out of character with the adjacent properties. The project will be required to meet all the land development regulations, and any buildings must be designed to comply with the Clermont Architectural Design Standards. Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 2024-036 to change the zoning from Lake County R-6 Urban Residential District to City C-2 General Commercial zoning. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval 5-0. The Conditional Use Permit agenda item had been tabled until this meeting to allow the applicant further time to perform some additional engineering analysis within the project and to provide additional elevations/renderings. Highland Engineering has provided additional information including grading cross - sections, retaining wall heights, and a grading summary letter. Based upon this information, the applicant is requesting two special conditions to be considered within the Conditional Use Permit. The first is a grading cut more than 15 feet for less than 1 percent of the site in the northeast corner of the site. The second is to allow retaining walls up to 10 feet in height for a total of 30 feet in the northeast corner of the site with some 10 foot and 8 foot walls in other areas of the site. The property was previously altered and matches the existing grades with the Ford dealership to the east and north has made developing this site very challenging. With the increased retaining wall heights, the location of the walls will be interior facing behind the building.

One of the right-of-ways is an old platted undeveloped 30-foot strip. It was created with the Monte Vista Park Farms plat in 1914. The second right-of-way is the clay maintained North Bradshaw Road that was previously under Lake County's authority and was transferred to the City through a road agreement in July of this year. This transfer was based upon the developer funding and constructing a new roadway in this area as part of the development plans to serve the two projects. The new roadway will be dedicated to the City but will be privately maintained in perpetuity by the developer, as recorded in their Planned Unit Development (Ordinance 2022-033, Section 3, Item 18.)

NEW BUSINESS Item No. 32 — Community Benefit Agreement Amendment, Lumberyard Development Services Director Henschel presented the item. The applicant, Penler Development is requesting an amendment to an existing Community Benefit Agreement associated with a previously approved Planned Unit Development. In February 2024, the applicant was approved for a development called the Lumberyard District. This Planned Unit Development consisted of 392 multifamily units and 55,000 square feet of commercial use on 12.3 acres. After the Planned Unit Development approval, detailed engineering of the site began. The engineers discovered a portion of the site would be better served by draining into the Victory Point drainage basin. This area of .52 acres was not originally calculated to drain into the basin nor was it calculated into the original Community Benefit Agreement. The Victory Point basin presently has over 12 acres of capacity available for additional impervious area. This would more than cover the remaining basin area if it were to be completely developed. The original approved Community Benefit Agreement included relocating the existing lift station, constructing a new lift station, constructing sidewalks on 12th Street, constructing a public parking area at the Row House, and taking over two city right-of-ways that were in need of repair. The applicants estimated sum of the benefits provided to the City was $2,140,000. If this request is approved to drain the .52 additional acres into the Victory Point drainage basin, the applicant is proposing an additional $50,000 payment as part of the Community Benefit contribution to the City. 16 City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 The applicant does have two additional requests. The first request is to remove the donation of the 1,800 square feet of land on the southwest of the property, which staff is agreeable to but asks them to intensify the landscape in the buffer. The second request is to remove the stipulation that the Community Benefit Agreement be complete prior to the first Certificate of Occupancy issuance. They are asking for two buildings to receive the Certificate of Occupancy prior to the Community Benefit Agreement being complete. The applicant, Connor McAdams of Penler Development spoke about the additional requests. They are asking for Carroll Street repaving and additional parking tied to the second Certificate of Occupancy due to the construction traffic on the site. All of the utility work would be complete before the first Certificate of Occupancy. Mayor Murry opened the public hearing. Dani Page, Tuscany Ridge — spoke in opposition of the project. David Wallace, 995 W. Lakeshore Drive— spoke in support of the project. Mayor Murry closed the public hearing. Matthew Gillespie of Kimley-Horn explained Victory Point and its intended use. City Manager Bulthuis stated that there are several basins downtown; Victory Point has 12 useable acres. The applicant is asking for a small adjustment that was not originally calculated in the original agreement. Council Member Howard expressed that his issues are that there is no green space and the paving of the parking lot on the waterfront. Mr. Gillespie said the entire system is one big drainage system. The construction documents have not been submitted to the City but will show a stormwater pond on the north side of the park. The parking was agreed in the original agreement. Council Member Howard is not in support and would like the parking to stay as an impervious system with the grass. City Manager Bulthuis explained the parking was part of the original negotiation; Council can bring the item back and take out the parking. Discussion ensued on the parking lot, the benefit provided to the city from this project and construction of the site. Council Member Pines moved approve Item 32 — Community Benefit Agreement Amendment. Lumberyard including_ the two additional requests of removing the donation of the 1.800 square feet of land and intensifying landscape buffer along with receiving two Certificate of Occupancies prior to Community Benefit Agreement being complete: seconded by Council Member Gonzalez. Passed 3-2 with Council Member Howard and Council Member Myers opposing. 17 City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 Item No. 33 — Offer to Purchase City Property,1029 Lake Avenue, Lot I Development Services Director Henschel presented the item. The applicants, Rick Richardson and Toxi Roane, are requesting to purchase a city -owned parcel located near Highway 50 and Lake Avenue. This parcel was acquired by the City in 2012 because of a code enforcement case. The parcel is currently vacant, but in 2012, before it was vacant, there was a dilapidated house on the parcel that was deteriorating. Code enforcement cited the property owner at that time who was not responsive. Lake County then offered the Tax Sale Certificate for sale, and the City of Clermont purchased the Certificate for $7,000 in order to demolish the house and clean up the site. The parcel is 6,300 square feet, and is adjacent to vacant land the applicants already own fronting Highway 50. The applicants have submitted an appraisal for the parcel with a value of $91,500, and submitted a proposal to construct a six-plex multifamily building. The applicants would like to offer the city $21,000 for the 6,300 square foot parcel. This would allow the applicant to combine all parcels together and have the ability to construct the multifamily building. In addition, within their proposal, they have an alternative offer: if the City wishes to donate the land, the applicants would agree to limit the use of the parcel to age -restricted, low-income units. The applicant, Mr. Richardson requested to purchase the lot to build housing for seniors. Mayor Murry opened the public hearing. Dani Page, Tuscany Ridge — opposed to the request. Tim Heslin, 458 W. Lakeshore Drive — opposed to the request. Tammy Heslin, 458 W. Lakeshore Drive — opposed to the request. City Attorney Mantzaris explained that this was not a staff initiated request. The applicant submitted an offer to the city and staff is presenting to Council for direction. Council has not provided direction to staff to move forward with the request. Blain Thompson, 916 W. Lakeshore — stated the city needs to sell property for a fair price. Development Services Director Henschel clarified the proposed use is for age restricted not low income. Vincent Niemiec, Regency Hills — opposed to the request. Charlene Forth, 939 W. Desoto Street — opposed to the request. Rick Van Wagner, 4228 Fawn Meadows Circle — expressed concern regarding the process. Mayor Murry closed the public hearing. City Attorney Mantzaris stated this is a unilateral request and clarified that the city would have to declare the property as surplus and decide the fair market value in order to sell. Currently the fair market value is based on the appraisal that was provided by the applicant. If Council decided that they would like to sell the property then a fair market value would have to be determined and the process of marketing and selling the property would commence. 18 City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 Council Member Howard suggested staff put together an inventory of all properties and Council can decide if there were any properties, they would like to surplus at a workshop. City Attorney Mantzaris said there is no action for Council tonight, staff was asking for direction on considering the offer. Ms. Roane stated that the purpose is for senior housing on that property. Seniors struggle and she has vowed to make it affordable to seniors. The appraisal shows $91,500 but she believes that may be incorrect. City Attorney Mantzaris stated if the applicant chooses, they can get another appraisal if they feel there is a discrepancy and present the new value and offer to the city. There was no action taken by the City Council. Item No. 34 — Resolution No. 2024-036R, Midpoint Recreation Shop CUP A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLERMONT, LAKE COUNTY, FLORIDA, GRANTING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR A CONTAINER BUILDING IN THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT (CBD) ZONING DISTRICT PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT, SEVERABILITY, ADMINISTRATIVE CORRECTION OF SCRIVENERS ERROR, PUBLICATION AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. City Clerk Howe read the title aloud. Development Services Planner Kruse presented the item. The applicant, Midpoint Recreation Outdoor Rentals, is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow for a 160 square foot container building in the Central Business District. The building will be located on an existing lot located at 782 West Montrose Street. The request is to use the northwest corner of the parcel as a commercial business that rents and stores recreational bicycles, canoes and other sporting items at this location. The Conditional Use Permit would also allow for the waiver of one parking space as required by the code, Section 115-14. The requested Conditional Use Permit is required for the 160 square foot container building and not the bicycle rental business, which is permitted in the Central Business District. The Land Development Regulations require all buildings must conform to the Clermont Architectural Design Standards. The 160 square foot building will be required to add architectural elements and features as depicted in the conceptual building elevations. The proposed building location is located at the rear of an existing commercial site. In addition, because the code does not identify the container building as permitted, Section 125-370 requires a Conditional Use Permit for any use or structure in the case of uncertainty about the classification. A final determination shall be made by this resolution. Staff has reviewed the application as submitted and finds the proposed building could be designed to comply with the codes and because of the de-minimus size of the building and location, the building may have a minimal impact on the surrounding areas. Staff does have one additional recommendation that is not in the Conditional Use Permit. Staff has noticed that Hurricane Milton has damaged the existing carport structure directly behind this area. Staff would recommend the final Certificate of Occupancy for Midpoint Recreation Shop tied to the completion of repairs to the carport structure. 19 City of Clermont MINUTES REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING November 12, 2024 Therefore, staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit with the addition of this condition in Resolution No. 2024-036R. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval 5-0. The applicant, Valarie Schuett presented a PowerPoint presentation that reviewed the start of the business and the plan for the future. The container would infill and beautifying an underutilized space. Curtis Evans, owner of the property spoke and stated that he is committed to fixing the storm damage on the carport. Mayor Murry opened the public hearing. Charlene Forth, 939 W. Desoto Street — spoke in support of the request. Mayor Murry closed the public hearing. City Attorney Mantzaris stated that the renderings that show what the facility will look like would be part of the Conditional Use Permit. Discussion ensued on the look and state of the carport on the property as well as complaints from neighbors and the space fitting the facility and bicycles. Development Services Director Henschel addressed the complaints they received and stated the neighbor thought this was on a different property.
