Several citizens spoke in oppositiont citing lack of
knowledge concerning the type of project being proposed.
In response, Mr. Dorian reported there would b~ a
total of 60 units in the two phases constructed condo-
style but they would be rentals. No children or pets
will be permitted, and all proper drainage will be pro-
vided so as to pose no hazard to surrounding properties.
The construction will be comparable to, or higher grade
than, existing development in the area. There will be no
government financing of the project.
John Gilbertt Executive Director of the Clearwater
Neighborhood Housing Services, reported the original
project was started in the mid-1970's and then abandoned.
Because of defective construction, the Building Department
ordered the walls torn down.
.
The developer reported willingness to meet with the
concerned citizens to present his site plan for their review.
Having held a duly constituted public hearing and
since, based on the material submitted by the applicant,
there are practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships
in complying with the zoning code, Mr. Gans moved to
grant the request with the provision that the building
permit be 'obtained within six (6) months of this date.
Mr. Regulski seconded the motion.
Mr. Regulski stated, for the record. that conservation
of energy and natural resources should be considered in
requests of this type. Upon the vote being taken, the
motion to grant carried unanimously.
Item #7 - Thomas Simmons for a front setback variance
to construct a room addition on a nonconforming
structure on Lots 5 & 6. Block C, Harvey Park, located
at 1485 S Washington Ave nnd zoned RS 50 (single-
family) .
The Planning Official' reported' the existing home 'en-
croaches into the setback area and the proposed addition
would also encroach, but to a lesser degree.
John Gilbert, Executive Director of Clearwater Neigh-
borhood Housing Services representing the applicant,
reported this is an area of older homes. most of which
are now non-conforming. The applicant has already received
a mortgage commitment to construct the addition. The
City has made a major, commitment to the upgrading of prop-
erties in various areas of the City, and similiar cases will
be coming before, the Board in the future.
