RE: Seminole Batting Range - Proposed Addition of Go-Cart Track.
Dear Mr. Bonyadi~
The site plan and stormwater calculatioI)s were received August
22, 1995 and reviewed. There were no deficiencies noted during
review except there needs to be a note added to the site plan that
states i'the distance to" and "the elevation of" the nearest 100-
year flbod zone,' even' though this site is ~ot in a flood zone.
This can be added to the "as-built" plans.
Upon completion of the work, pleas.e, provide a set of "as-
built" site plans, a "letter of certification" (format letter
available from the Engineering Department) and $300.00 for an "as-
built"-. inspection fee.
If you have any questions please call 327-8397.
Thank you.

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 7, 1995
1. Call to Order:
Meeting called to order at 7:00 P.M. by Chairperson Greene.
Attendance:
James Greene, Chairperson, Present
Frank Adams, Present
Al Becker, Present
Elizabeth Harrow, Absent
Greg Smith, Absent
Don LeBlanc, Land Management Specialist
2. Consideration of the January 5. 1995 Meeting Minutes:
Mr. Adams moved to except the January 5, 1995 meeting minutes as presented. Seconded
by Mr. Becker. Vote: All aye; motion carried.
3. Request of John D. and Linda D. Stibich for a variance to Section 6-219(a) to allow a
swimmine: pool (water's ede:e) to be closer than ten (10) feet from the rear propertv line
and ten and one-half (10-l/2) feet from the side propertv line. The prooertv is zoned
Planned Unit Development and is located at 625 Clearn Court.
Chairperson Greene said the Board members should have received notice with the agenda
regarding ordinance number 577. Ordinance 577 states that the Board of Adjustment is now a
recommending body as opposed to a granting body.
Mr. LeBlanc explained to the Board that this only pertains to the second case on the agenda
(Jondro), that has to do with Chapter 20. The first case (Stibich) has to do with Chapter 6.
Chairperson Greene said the pool was constructed back in 1978, and currently the people are
trying to clear the property for sale.
Mr. LeBlanc said that is when they discovered the pool was in the easement, and did not satisfy
the setback requirements. The Commission has vacated the southerly eight (8) feet of that
easement, so there is only a seven (7) foot easement. According to the plat the waters edge is
7-1/4 inches from the rear property line, which is satisfactory.
He said he was not sure of the measurements for the waters edge on the side yard property, and
he put that in, in the event that it does not figure out the side yard requirements for this particular
subdivision. The subdivision has a 7-1/2 foot side yard setback, and the Code states it has to be
Board of Adjustment
Meeting Minutes - September 7,1995
Page 2
the side yard requirement plus three (3) feet. So the extra is put there just to insure that the pool
meets all the requirements for future sale, or whatever the case may be.
Chairperson Greene asked if it was permitted, and if anyone objected to it? Mr. LeBlanc said
he gave the Board a copy of the permit. Certified letters were mailed out, and no comments
were received as a result.
Chairperson Greene asked if there was anyone present to speak against granting of the variance?
No response given.
Mr. Becker moved that the variance be granted. Seconded by Mr. Adams. Vote: All aye;
motion carried.
4. Reauest of Raman L. and Sharon P. Jondro for a variance to Section 20-166 (3) to allow
the side vard setback to be less than ten (10) feet from the side orooertv line. The
property is zoned R-lAA (One-Family Dwelline District) and is located at 266 Morton
Lane.
Mr. LeBlanc explained that Mr. Jondro is in the process of attempting to sell lot 3 and possibly
the house on lot 4. To insure that there is no variance required for lot 3, the variance is for lot 4.
It appears the house is about 3 to 8 feet from the side property line, and that is the reason a
variance is being sought.
Chairperson Greene, for clarification asked that when the house and property was purchased, it
was a house built on a lot and a half, and he is now seeking to sell off lot 3 ?
Mr. LeBlanc said that is correct, with the possibility of selling lot 3 and lot 4.
Chairperson Greene asked if he was looking at the possibility of splitting the two and selling as
two parcels?
Mr. LeBlanc said that was correct.
Chairperson Greene asked that since he owns part of lot 4, could he also have cut off part of lot
3 to add to that parcel or is the other alternative easier?
Mr. LeBlanc explained that if you cut offlot 3, you would have a lot split, and it would have to
be two equal size lots. The smallest lot would have to be ten-thousand (10,000) square feet and
eighty (80) feet or ninety (90) feet wide.
Board of Adjustment
Meeting Minutes - September 7, 1995
Page 3
Chairperson Greene asked if he is then seeking a variance in order to sell a piece of property
with a house on it that is closer than the required setback? Mr. LeBlanc said that was correct.
Chairperson Greene, looking at the plat, said the area in the front looks to be a garage slab, but
actually it is the comer of the house, and that requires the ten (10) foot setback?
Mr. LeBlanc said that is correct.
Mr. Adams asked if both lots 3 and 4 were considered one lot at the time it was purchased?
Was there concern at that time of construction of the house that a property line ran through there?
Mr. LeBlanc said no, because the person owned both lots, and he was using half of lot 4 and all
oflot 3.
Mr. Adams said there must be some alternative. If the variance is not granted what size would
lot 3 be reduced to?
Mr. LeBlanc said the issue is not lot 3, lot 3 is all right. The issue is the setback on lot 4 where
the house was when he purchased it.
Discussion regarding lot splitting and minimum lot size requirements for R-lAA zoning.
Mr. LeBlanc said at the present time Mr. Jondro is attempting to sell lot 3 in its entirety. Mr.
Jondro is disabled, and there is a possibility he may have to sell the residence on lot 4. When he
came to see me, I said lot 3 is all right as it stands, somebody can build on it, but lot 4 is where
the problem is. In case you do have to sell your residence, let us proceed for a variance for the
side yard setback.
Chairperson Greene asked if he would have the same problem we just had with the swimming
pool if he tried to sell lot 4?
Mr. LeBlanc answered yes.
Mr. Adams, for clarification, asked that the only alternative then is to grant a variance for lot 4,
or the property could not be sold or split?
Mr. LeBlanc said lot 3 could be split, but it does not answer the question. If you have somebody
that purchases right next to lot 4 , (that half of lot 3) and then he wants to sell his residence on lot
4, the problem still exists that he still has less than ten feet, and will continue to be a problem later
on.
Board of Adjustment
Meeting Minutes - September 7, 1995
Page 4
Chairperson Greene asked if there is anyone present to speak for or against this? None
appearing, and if there are no further questions, I'll except a motion.
Shirley Johnson Jenkins - 265 Morton Lane, Winter Springs said that for such a long time they
have enjoyed such a large area in reference to the acreage. At this point, it seems to bring it down
some and houses start getting a little closer together. That is not really so much a problem if the
neighbor next door were to buy it (and the people here, the Dunns asked me to come as an
interested party). I thought if they were to buy it themselves, it would all stay together because
they would be interested in keeping the acreage as opposed to splitting the lots.
Mr. Raman Jondro said his intention on the lot is to keep it the same size. I don't want to split
it because it would spoil (like Mrs. Johnson said) the ambiance of the whole place. My concern is
that I am unable to work. I have a lot of property that I cannot maintain anymore and is costly to
have cut and so on. Our idea is to sell the lot, apply the money to our present mortgage enabling
us to stay here. I want to keep the property as it is, almost a full acre, and not destroy the
neighborhood. That is why I am going this route. Weare talking about a matter of a few feet,
and I just donlt want to run into a problem later.
Mr. Adams moved to recommend granting the variance. Seconded by Mr. Becker. Vote: All
aye; motion carried
Chairperson Greene said it is the action of this Board to recommend to the City Commission
that this variance be granted.
