for a variance of three parking spaces to permit zero
parking spaces where three are required at 301 S Gulfview
Blvd, The Beach Place Motel, a Condo, zoned CR 28 (Resort
Commercial). V 92-58
Harry Cline, attorney representing the applicant, requested a
continuance to allow the applicants the opportunity to present
their case before a full Board.
Ms. Whitney moved to continue this request to the meeting of
January 14, 1993. The motion was duly seconded and carried
unanimously.
1. L.a.M., Inc (Surf West Inc) for variances (~) of two
parking spaces to permit a total of thirteen spaces in
lieu of the 15 spaces required; (2) of 49.83 ft to permit
a lot width of 100.17 ft; (3) of 9.30 it to permit a lot
depth of 91.70 ft; (4) of 8.6 percent building coverage
to permit a maximum coverage of 53.6 percent; (5) of 5 ft
to permit building setback of 10 ft from N Gulfview Blvd
and 12.4 ft to permit a 2.6 ft setback from Papaya st
rights-of-way; (6) of 9 ft to permit building 5 ft from
a side (north) property line; (7) of 9 ft to permit
building 6 ft from a rear (east) property line; (8) to
permit a reduction of 5 percent of the open space
required for the front yard to permit 45 percent front
yard open space at 449 N Gulfview Blvd, Clwr Beach Park,
Lots 29 thru 32, zoned CR 28 (Resort commercial). V 92-59
Senior Planner Glatthorn explained the application in detail
stating the applicant wishes to demolish certain existing substan-
dard residential buildings and redevelop the site into a commercial
retail store. The subject property is a corner lot with an
irregular shape and is substandard with regard to width and depth.
The city Traffic Engineering Department does not recommend granting
variances to the parking requirements on Clearwater Beach,
indicating this contributes to the parking shortage in the area.
Richard Bekesh and David Himes, representing the applicant,
presented photographs of the existing property and explained
architects renderings of the proposal. Mr. Himes stated of the
four structures on the site, two residential structures and some
asphalt will be removed. The retail area will sell an upgraded
clothing line and sports equipment and underground parking is
proposed.
Mr. Himes stated reducing the square footage of the building to
meet setbacks would reduce the number of parking spaces beneath it.

Discussion ensued with regard to the difficulty in meeting the
setback requirements on the substandard lot. Mr. Himes expressed
concern an adjacent one-story building set close to the street will
obstruct the view of the proposed establishment from the street.
The lot will be heavily landscaped to compensate for the reduced
setbacks.
Mr. Bekesh indicated the property will be attractive and a covered
entryway for handicapped ingress/egress will be provided. He felt
the remaining net floor area is the minimum necessary to display
retail merchandise. He stated the facility will beautify and
enhance the area while eliminating the hazard of back-out parking
into the street.
A motel owner to the north of the subject property spoke in support
of the application, giving a brief history. He feels the proposed
retail use is consistent with the zoning and the area and will
thrive on pedestrian traffic. He said the applicant has shown good
faith by upgrading the property and doing everything he can to meet
parking and other code requirements. He requested approval of the
application be conditioned upon a 10:00 p.m. closing time due to
noise concerns.

12/10/92
One petition containing signatures of eight surrounding property
owners was presented in support of the application.
Mr. Bekesh stated the key to making this business successful is
having visibility from Mandalay Avenue, there has been no opposi-
'...._. tion to the proj ect and he feels the proposed business will enhance
the neighborhood.
The applicant was commended for his efforts to improve the
property; however, concern was expressed the proposal would cause
oversaturation of the lot. It was felt this request is not the
minimum and too many variances are being requested for the size of
the lot.
Based upon the information furnished by the applicant, Ms. whitney
moved to grant variances #2 and #3 as requested because the
applicant has substantially met all of the standards for approval
as listed in section 137.012(d) of the Land Development Code more
specifically because, the variances arise from a condition which is
unique to the property and not caused by the owner or applicant and
the variances are the minimum necessary to overcome the hardship
created by the shape and size of the lot subject to the conditions:
1) the variances are based on the application for variances and
documents submitted by the applicants, including maps, plans,
surveys and other documents submitted in support of the applicants'
request for variances. Deviation from any of the above documents
submitted in support of the request for variances regarding the
work to be done with regard to the site or any physical structure
located on the site, will result in these variances being null and
of no effect; 2) landscaping shall be provided as shown on the site

plan and J) the requisite building permit shall be obtained within
six (6) months from the date of this public hearing. The motion
was duly seconded and carried unanimously.
Based upon the information furnished by the applicant, Ms. Whitney
moved to deny variances #1, #4, #5, #6, #7 and #8 because the
applicant has not demonstrated he has met all of the standards for
approval as listed in Section lJ7.012(d) of the Land Development
Code because there is no condition which is unique to the property;
no unnecessary hardship was shown; the hardship was caused by the
owner or applicant; the variances are not the minimum; the request
for the variances is based primarily upon the desire of the
applicant to secure a greater financial return from the property
and the granting of the variances would violate the general spirit
and intent of this development code as expressed in sections
131.005 and 131.006. The motion was duly seconded and carried
unanimously.
2. Sun Bank of Tampa Bay for a variance of 4 parking
spaces to allow 10 spaces where 14 are required at 2201
Belcher Rd, Sec 6-29-16, M&B 32.01, which includes a
portion of vacated Pinellas Groves easement in Sec 1-29-
15, zoned OL (Limited Office), subject to rezoning to CPD
(commercial Planned Development). V 92-61
In a letter dated December 2, 1992, the applicant requested a
continuance to allow time to readvertise an increase in the
requested parking variance. In accordance with a recommendation
from the City Traffic Engineering Department, the increase is being
requested to eliminate parking spaces in a traffic aisle.
Ms. Whitney moved to continue this request to the meeting of
January 14, 1993. The motion was duly seconded and carried
unanimously.
3. Anthony J and Patricia Furino for a variance of 10
percent to permit 50 percent front yard open space where
60 percent is required at 3007 Geiger ct, Landmark Palms,
Lot 2, zoned RS 4 (Single Family Residential). V 92-62
Senior Planner Glatthorn explained the application in detail
stating the applicant wishes to construct a circular concrete
driveway in the front yard setback of their single-family home to
replace the existing back-out driveway.
.. Anthony and patricia Furino, owner/applicants, stated the proposed
driveway will allow an elderly relative easier access to the house
and will provide additional off-street parking for the residents.
She indicated there will soon be two new drivers in the family who
will find it safer to drive cars forward into the street. She said
several properties in the area have circular drives and the
driveway will be in keeping with the aesthetics of the neighbor-
hood.

In response to questions, Mr. Furino stated he has lived in the
home for two years and feels the lot was designed to have a
circular drive. He said a representative of the city's Forestry
Department indicated there are sufficient trees and landscaping on
the property.
Based upon the information furnished by the applicant, Mr. Johnson
moved to grant the variance as requested because the applicant has
substantially met all of the standards for approval as listed in
section 137.012 Cd) of the Land Development Code subject to the
conditions: 1) the variance is based on the application for a
variance and documents submitted by the applicants, including maps,
plans, surveys and other documents submitted in support of the
applicants' request for a variance. Deviation from any of the
above documents submitted in support of the request for a variance
regarding the work to be done with regard to the site or any
physical structure located on the site, will result in this
variance being null and of no effect; 2) the circular driveway
shall be constructed as per the site plan and in compliance with
clearwater Building Codes and 3) the requisite building permit
shall be obtained within six (6) months from the date of this
public hearing. The motion was duly seconded and carried unani-
mously. Request qranted.
4. George E and Mary Jane Collins to permit a motor home
to be parked within setback area from a street right-of-
way at 1944 Ripon Dr, Fair Oaks 1st Add, Lot 23, zoned RS
8 (Single Family Residential). V 92-63
Senior Planner Glatthorn explained the application in detail
stating the applicants wish to park their motor home on their
property in its present location within a street setback, surround-
ed by trees and shrubs. The applicants maintain relocating the
motor home to the east would be very costly because it would
involve the destruction of fully grown trees, the addition of a
large gate, regrading the east side of the lot and relocating the
air conditioning compressor unit and the pool filter system.
Another possible location would encroach on the neighbor's
property. She stated four letters from surrounding property owners
were submitted in support of the request and are a part of the
application.
George and Mary Jane Collins, owner/applicants, explained the need
for the variance. Mr. Collins stated he researched the require-
ments for motor home parking prior to purchasing the vehicle in
1988 because it is necessary to park the vehicle nearby for
security, maintenance and easy access. He was not aware of any
parking restrictions.

Mr. Collins stated this and several other violations in the
neighborhood were cited by the City Code Enforcement Department as
a result of a complaint regarding someone living in a recreational
vehicle in the driveway of a neighbor. Mr. Collins indicated his
case was presented before the Code Enforcement Board and it was
recommended he seek a variance from the Development Code Adjustment
Board.
Mr. Collins his dual front setback requirement is a hardship and
said his present parking place would be legal if it were on an
inside lot. He stated the neighbors are in support of the request
which will not violate the integrity of the neighborhood nor impede
traffic flow.
In response to a question, it was stated the motor home is 34 feet
long. Mrs. Collins stated it is not obtrusive because it is
partially concealed by their house and trees. She felt it would be
less aesthetically pleasing parked elsewhere on the lot.
One additional letter was submitted in support of the application.
Concern was expressed the code is intended to protect the communi-
ty; however, it was also felt a hardship exists with this applica-
tion.
Discussion ensued with regard to the possibility of installing a
four-foot high fence to partially screen the motor home. It was
felt the view of the motor home is preferable to the view of a
fe.nee.
Consensus of the Board was to continue this item to the next
meeting.
Mr. Johnson moved to continue this item to the meeting of January
14, 1993. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously.
5. Brian G Salisbury for variances of (1) 1.37 ft to al-
low a minimum lot width of 58.63 ft where 60 ft is
required; (2) 2 ft to allow a landscaped buffer 3 ft in
width where 5 ft is required (east property line); and
(3) 5 ft to allow zero landscape buffer where 5 ft is re-
quired (west property line) at 505 Druid Rd, Sec 16-29-
15, M&B 44.01, 44. all, and vacated street, zoned OL
(Limited Office). V 92-65
In a letter dated December 10, 1992, the applicant'S representative
requested a continuance to January 28, 1993, to allow time to
provide a site plan, in accordance with staff recommendations.
Mr. Johnson moved to continue this item to the meeting of January
28, 1993. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously.

6. Hellenic Orthodox Traditionalist Church of America,
Inc for variances of (1) 0.15 acres to allow a minimum
lot area of 0.85 acres where 1 acre is required; (2) 31.2
percent front yard open space to allow 23.8 percent where
55 percent is required; and (3) 19 ft to allow a building
addition 16 ft from street right-of-way where 35 ft is
required at 1910 Douglas Ave, Sunset Point 2nd Add, Blk
G, Lots 23 thru 25 less the east 5 ft and Lots 39 thru
42, zoned F/SP (Public/Semi-Public). V 92-66
Senior Planner Glatthorn explained the application in detail
stating the applicant wishes to construct two new additions to the
existing one-story building on an irregular and substandard lot.
She noted the proposed front addition will encroach into the
setback to a lesser degree than now.
Louis Bakkalapulo, attorney representing the applicant, indicated
the entrance is presently on the east side of the building. This
proposal relates to a tradition of the church to have the altar
located on the east side of the building and the entrance on the
west.
In response to questions, Mr. Bakkalapulo indicated the area on the
east side of the building is paved and confirmed the desire to have
the new entrance on the Spring Street side of the building. He
stated an existing courtyard will remain as it is and the addi-
tion (s) will not extend out as far as an adjacent two story
structure.
The church secretary spoke in support of the application.
Based upon the information furnishad by the applicant, Mr. Johnson
moved to grant the variances as requested because the applicant has
substantially met all of the standards for approval as listed in
Section 137.012 (d) of the Land Development Code subject to the
fallowing conditions: 1) the variance is based on the application
for a variance and documents submitted by the applicants, including
maps, plans, surveys and other documents submitted in support of
the applicants' request for a variance. Deviation from any of the
above documents submitted in support of the request for a variance
regarding the work to be done with regard to the site or any
physical structure located on the site, will result in this
variance being null and of no effect; 2) the two additions shall be
constructed as shown on the site plan and 3) the requisite building
permit shall be obtained within six (6) months from the date of
this public hearing. The motion was duly seconded and carried
unanimously.

7. Tom M Sehlhorst (Tom Sehlhorst Inc) for variances of
(1) 8.09 ft to allow building 1.91 ft from (west) side
property line; (2) 14.51 ft to permit building 10.49 ft
from a street right-of-way (Spruce st); (3) 0.01 to
permit floor area ratio of 0.31; (4) 1 percent building
coverage to permit 31 percent building coverage; and (5)
12 parking spaces to permit 12 spaces in lieu of the 24
spaces required at 611 Palm Bluff st, Palm Bluff 1st Add,
Lots 26, 28, and 30, zoned CN (Neighborhood Commercial) .
V 92-67
Senior Planner Glatthorn explained the application in detail
stating the existing development was built without permits and the
applicant has been working with city building inspectors to correct
numerous building code violations. She stated indoor retail sales
are permitted in the area; however the existing outdoor retail uses
on the property are illegal unless approved by the Planning and
Zoning Board as a part of the Infill Commercial rezoning. It was
indicated structures on the subject property do not meet the
requirements for setback, floor area ratio, building coverage or
parking. The requested variances, with the exception of the floor
area variance, are needed to bring the development into confor-
mance. It was indicated floor area is a matter of
density/intensity which may not be varied; therefore, this variance
request will be withdrawn and a refund will be processed.
Tom Sehlhorst, owner and applicant, stated he owns 12 to 14 lots in
this deteriorated, high crime area. He indicated it is difficult
to stay in business due to zoning changes since 1985. He stated he
is being fined $50 per day for renting skates from a portion of his
property which was rezoned to residential when pinellas Trail was
built.
Discussion ensued regarding the various existing buildings on the
subject property, their history and current uses. Mr. Sehlhorst
indicated one large building has been divided over the years. Any
structural changes disallow grandfathering which might have applied
to this property.
Due to numerous questions, it was the consensus of the Board to
continue this item to the next meeting in order to have a represen-
tative of the city Building Division present.
Mr. Johnson moved to continue this item to the meeting of January
28, 1993 to allow time for staff to research the project and
address the Board's questions. The motion was duly seconded and
carried unanimously.
8. Beach communities lIt Inc for a variance of 55 ft in
height to permit a building 145 ft in height where 90 ft
is allowed at 1350 Gulf Blvd, Sec 19-29-15, M&B 14.03 and
14.08, zoned RM 28 (Multiple Family Residential) and OS/R

Senior Planner Glatthorn explained the application in detail
stating the applicant wishes to construct a 26-unit residential
condominium on sand Key. The proposal will be in character with
other residential condominiums in the area.
George Greer, representing the applicant, gave a brief history of
the proposal. He indicated the necessary approvals were obtained
from the city Commission and the Development Code Adjustment Board
in August, 1986, to complete this project under the name
"L'Hermitage". The action was upheld by a state hearing officer in
February, 1987, on appeal by a concerned neighbor; however, the
proposed development was never built.
In response to a question, Mr. Greer stated the current proposal
and the requested height variance are the same as what was
originally granted for the L'Hermitage development. Being
permitted the additional height will reduce the footprint 28
percent, putting more distance between buildings and increase the
vista 30 percent. This will provide more visibility for the lower
9 floors of Crescent Beach Club than a lower building with a larger
footprint.
Ten members of the crescent Beach ClUb Association spoke in
opposition to the application. Concerns were expressed the
proposed location and building configuration are not appropriate
for the area, exceeding the 90-foot-high building requirement would
restrict their waterfront view to the south and block light from
the pool of their condominium.
Discussion ensued with regard to setback and clear space require-
ments for the proposed construction.
Mr. Greer stated the taller building will have a better looking
roof line and will be aesthetically pleasing. It will not substan-
tially impact any waterfront views as the windows on the south side
of the adjacent condominium will not directly face the proposed
structure.
Based upon the information furnished by the applicant, Ms. Whitney
moved to grant the variance, as requested because the applicant has
substantially met all of the standards for approval as listed in
Section 137.012(d) of the Land Development Code, more specifically
because, the variance arises from a condition which is unique to
the property and was not caused by the owner or applicant subject
to the condition the requisite building permit shall be obtained
within two (2) years from the date of this pUblic hearing. The
motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Request granted.
9. Ramchandra Rand Rashmi Jakhotia (King Cole Motel)
for a variance of 7 parking spaces to permit an addition-
al 14 live-aboard vessels wlth zero additional parking
spaces provided at 401 East Shore Dr, Barbour Morrow SUb,
Blk C, Lot 14 and part of Lot 13, zoned CB (Beach

In a letter dated December 10, 1992, the applicant's representative
requested a continuance to the meeting of January 14, 1993, to
allow the applicants the opportunity to present their case before
a full Board and to allow time to review and analyze new informa-
tion contained in the staff report.
Ms. Whitney moved to continue this item to the meeting of January
14, 1993. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously.
III. Approval of Minutes of November 12, 1992
Ms. Whitney moved to approve the minutes of November 12, 1992, in
accordance with copies submitted to each board member in writing.
The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously.
IV. Board and Staff Discussion
Discussion ensued regarding the September 10, 1992 hearing of the
Sea Star Beach Resort application #V 92-47. The Planning Manager
stated it will be necessary to schedule this case for reconsidera-
tion due to the applicant's difficulty in meeting the condition
concerning relocation of the dumpster. The applicant cannot get a
certificate of occupancy until the condition is met and the city's
Sanitation Department has indicated the dumpster cannot be moved
across the street.
Reconsideration was not felt to be necessary; however, it was
determined readvertising and rehearing are required when consider-
ing changing a condition imposed upon the granting of a variance.
It was suggested the applicant submit a written request and apply
for a conditional certificate of occupancy based on Board recommen-
dations.
Discussion ensued regarding required parking at the Sea star. It
was suspected the owner may want to have additional units or
liveaboard boat slips in the future.
Discussion ensued regarding the November 12, 1992 hearing of the
Zabor application #V 92-57. The Planning Manager stated a policy
has been established to allow small, decorative light fixtures to
exceed the maximum fence/wall height requirements. It was felt
this would not be a problem if the fixture is in keeping with the
aesthetic nature of the surroundings and does not exceed 18 to 24
inches in height.
Discussion c~mtinued regarding the Sehlhorst property. It was
indicated the zoning is causing a considerable hardship for the
applicant, who is attempting a sensible retail use for the area.
Mr. Shuford indicated zoning changes are being pursued.
