Mr. Baker said, "We will try to put this on the first City Commission Meeting in January
[2008]." Mr. Baker added, "One thing I would request the Board Members who Voted
for this, in can show how this meets each ofthe six (6) Critieria."
Board Member Howard Casman noted, "It is an extenuating circumstance on this one."
Board Member Casman added, "There is no conflict on the Comprehensive Plan on the -
first Finding and yet you say it is in potential conflict with Section 9-607. which was
recently enacted." Mr. Baker said, "That is the difference between the Comprehensive
Plan and the City Code." Board Member Casman remarked, "The second one you agree.
The third one does not appear to violate the Building Code provisions for fire and tenant
separation. However, you are back on the zero lot line, which I don't really - this is an
extenuating circumstance in this case because it already exists. Number 4) you said was
'Okay'. Number 5) you said this is not the minimum request." Board Member Casman
further stated, "I think there is some variation in that also. And Number 6), the
Homeowner's Association approved it, and as far as I'm concerned, if the HOA
(Homeowner's Association) Architectural Board approves it, then it is approved."
With further discussion, Vice Chairman Taylor said, "And it will save me the trouble of
writing a letter."
Chairman Waters asked, "Does that answer the question as the Attorney wants it?" Mr.
Baker said, "I think so."
