Considerable discussion and questioning ensued between Board members and Mr. Lipman and sample copies of "red tags" and permit applications were examined by all concerned. It was suggested.that an opinion from the Legal Department was needed and Mr. Frank Kowalski, Chief Assistant City Attorney,' was summoned to the hearing. Mr. Kowalski was apprised of proceedings and after considerable questioning and discussion, rendered the opinion that because of the many technical aspects of this case, also the fact that an appeal to the Zoning BAA has already been denied, that the Building Board of Adjustment and Appeal does not necessarily have jurisdiction in this matter. Before asking for a motion, Mr. Logan commented that in his opinion Mr. Ayres was using proper authority in revoking the Permit - and he did not feel it to be within the jurisdiction of the Hoard to determine this question. MOTION: A motion was made by Mr. Straub with r.eaard to-the request for a variance from the Building Director's decision for a structure located at 116 Smallwood Circle, owned by Norman and Evelyn Alexander, that the Board does not find it to be within its authority to act upon the request. The motion was seconded by Mr. Walker and passed unanimously. Case II - 640 Gulfview Blvd, Brett's Restaurant -- Owner, Rose i er - Represen -a ive, r, Kurt oungs -rom. Mr. Youngstrom pre- sented the case for the owner and discussed the hardship that would be involved if construction could not be at ground level - or approx- imately 4.0 ft. below 100-year flood level. The restaurant planned will 'consist of approximately 2,000 square feet, to seat about 100. To meet State handicapped requirements would require some 60 ft. of ramp which would be impractical due to space limitations and also be- cause of the extremely high cost. Also to construct above flood level would be aesthetically undesirable, particularly considering surround- ing structures. Mr. Logan questioned whether the owner had been proper- ly and completely informed of Federal Flood Regulations and cautioned that the cost of insurance on this structure would be very high and there is also the possibility that they would be refused insurance. The owner had been advised of this fact but intends to investigate further before final, construction plans are formalized. MOTION: Mr. Walker moved with regard to the request.for a variance from the Flood Insurance Regulation for a structure located at 640 Gulfview Boulevard, the Board finds, it to be within its authority, to act upon the request and hereby grants the 4.0 ft. variance as re- quested. Motion seconded and passed unanimously. 2 - 1/ EXHIBIT 1 - PAGE 1 4/$3 if , • ' 1 1 • I Board of Adjustment & Appeals Building/Flood Control. January 1983 Page 3 .

Ms. Lamb presented the case for the owner, briefly described building and surrounding area and advised the board that insurance rates have been. checked. Prelimin- ary information furnished by the Federal Flood Insurance agency has indicated rates will be high but Ms. Lamb'stated they are prepared to accept applicable rates. To construct their building at a higher. level would not be aesthetically acceptable considering already existing structures in the surrounding area, plus to build at the 11 ft.'`l.evel would not be feasible or practical.

Motion, seconded by Mr. Straub and carried unanimously, Mr. Ayres informed the Board members of a new ordinance currently . being drafted in the City Attorney's office.

Mr, Joseph A.,King, owner of the property, requesting a 5. t. variance to permit construction of a 2.580 ft.' office building below flood plain.

Pete Stirling, member of the Board of Directors requesting a 4 ft, variance to permit enclosure of area beneath existing building with glass doors, to provide additional required space. Area is approximately 1,500 sq. feet;-presently contains normal lighting and receptacles, bath facilities, and will eventually be air conditioned. Economically unsound for club to expand in any other manner and enclosure of this existing area is necessary to provide additional space required for their club functions. Motion - by Mr. Straub.

Case V - Pelican Restaurant, ??„Mandalay Avenue. - Mr. Wm. Kimpton, attorney. represented the owner in this request for a 5 ft. variance to. permit expansion of kitchen area - addition to be constructed at same level as existing kitchen. Considerable discussion and questioning followed and it was determined that because the proposed improvement to the structure would not exceed 50% of the assessed value of the original structure, this variance could be granted under Coastal Construction Code, Section 3904. Motion made by Mr. Walker -- with regard to the request for variance from the Flood Insurance Regulation for a structure located at 470 Mandalay Avenue, Clearwater -- Pelican Restaurant - the Board finds it within its authority to act upon the request and hereby grants the requested variance under the following conditions - (1) that the variance be granted to match the existing floor elevations based upon the Board's interpretation that the addition is not substantial improvement of'the existing restaurant as defined in Chapter 39 and therefore does not have to conform to the one foot above street level elevation. Motion seconded by Mr. Straub and carried unanimously. Case VI - 783. Bay Es lan? ade?- owner Thomas L. duPont. Representative Rogers K. Hay on, Jr. requesting a 5 ft, variance to permit construction of one-story residence, utilizing portion of existing garage as part of new construction. Because there might appear to be a question as to this construction being pe3rmitt6W under zoning regulations, Mr. Logan advised the applicants that the Building/Flood Board dealt with flood and building code variances only and granting of the flood variance as re- quested would be contingent upon the-applicant securing a zoning variance if necessary. Applicant proposes to build new structure to conform with surrounding homes and 5 ft. variance from flood regulations necessary to permit construction at same level .as neighboring residences. After questioning, it was determined that new structure would have to be built at an elevation'of 8 ft. rather than 7 ft. to conform with one foot above crown of road elevation requirement. Motion made by Mr. Walker -- with regard to the request for variance from the Flood Insurance Regulation for a structure located at 781 Bay Explanade that the request be granted subject to the elevation being at 8 ft. rather than 7 ft.

Mr. 'Kenneth Johnson, Express'Construction Company represented the owner of the cruise boat, Cpt. Phil Henderson. Mr., Johnson referred to a memorandum from the Building Director which 'itemi zed ntinimum code re- quirements for the two buildings in question. A ,copy of this memorandum -is attached hereto and made a part of these mi.niutes. After hearing Mr. Johnson's presentation it was,the opinion of the Board that the proposed construction methods met and exceeded code.requiromerits, and that the Board, therefore, had only to rule on the flood variance. Further discussion followed between Board members', Mr. Johnson and Mr. Joe Ryan of Fire Safe Company regarding proposed fire treatment of these buildings, the fact that the treatment had a two-hour fire resistance rating, and had been'approved by the fire department. Regarding the variance from flood elevation, it was the concensus that it would be prohibitive to build at the flood elevation. Mr. Walker moved that with regard to the request for a variance from the Flood in- surance Regulation for a structure located at the City of'Clearwater docks, Cpt. Anderson II Dinner and Dance Cruise, the Board finds it to be within its authority to act upon the request for flood variance and hereby grants the variance as requested.

Chairman Logan asked if the applicant was aware of the cost of Federal Flood Insurance when constructing below 12 f t.'flood elevation and Mr. Ruppel•responded that he is at present checking this and understands that the cost of insurance will be considerably higher. Mt. Logan suggested that'it might be advisable to consider this construction at a i.0 ft. level rather than the 9 ft. variance requested which might reduce insurance costs and Mr. Ruppel advised he is securing estimates for several ele- vations and will then make cost analysis to determine construction -height, but to go to full 12 ft. elevation would not be feasible. Motion - by Mr. Straub. With regard to the request for a variance from the.Flood regulation for a structure located at 295' Bayside,•Clearwater Beach for permission to construct a two-'story residence with first floor elevation of 9 ft. minimum replacing the existing residence with a first floor elevation of 7.78 ft,, the Board finds it to be within its authority to act.upon the request and hereby grants the variance as requested.

Case I - Aegean Sands Motel -- S. Gulfview- Blvd. -- Lil7Lo Properties. Mr. John'Co.rnett declared a conflict of interest and advised he would refrain from participating in this particular case. Mr..' Mark Lapham, General Manager/Partner, presented the-case in behalf of Aegean Sands . Resorts. Agean Sands now consists of two separate structures on either side, of a vacant lot. Owner wishes to'construct a 20' x 30' building on the lot to house much needed storage area as well. as coin-' operated laundry facilities for the use of their guests.' A 6 ft. ? variance requested to p'er'mit construction of,new building at same 1 level as existing buildings'-- to build 'at higher level would mean ramping or stairs necessary which would not be practical and would' be hardship as far as moving of equipment in and out of storage area . and 'access to 'laundry, f acilities. is concerned - and. could present problems due to water run-off from higher new building to existing lower buildings. 'Mr. Lapham advised the Board that he dial not plan, to apply for flood insurance for the new building. A discussion followed regarding flood insurance. Mr. Biron questioned whether one building on a property could be' excluded or be exempt from flood in- surance when other buildings ware already covered,by flood insurance. Mx. Lapham was advised by Chairman Logan and other Board members that he should check into this very thoroughly as he could risk his flood 'insurance becoming invalid by not including new building in flood coverage. Questions were raised regarding electrical receptacles' and outlets as well as placement of washers/dryers in the new building, George Owens was summoned to the. hearing at this point to answer various questions in this regard. Consensus was Beard's approval of variance as requested included approval of not just shell of building but also all electrical, plumbing, mechanical installations and in this case, installation of washers and dryers., EXHIBIT 4 -- PAGE 'l d'. .i f'f> :. f S z , r I Building/Flood Board of ' Adjustment and Appeal" June 22;,1983 Page 2 There were no further questions and Mr. Straub moved with regard to this request for variance from the Flood Insurance Regulation for ,a structure located at 421 S.

Case 21- Beach Bar, 454 Mandalay Avenue. Mr. Henry Cruise, owner, and son, James attended meeting: Mr. Don Williams presented the case for the owner. Mr. Williams described the addition to the existing building as it has been designed and pointed out how impractical 'it would be to construct above flood, level.. Granting of the 2.62 ft. variance as requested would permit all.floor levels to be the same. Mr. Logan advised Mr. Cruise to investigate the increased flood insurance costs this addition would represent. Mr. Ayres entered meeting.

Pinellas_Co_unty Board•of County Commissioners W 315 Court. Street. Requesting a.3 ft., variance from Federal Flood Regulations so 'as to ; build bath house facilities at Sand Key Park at 10 ft. elevation rather than' at 13 ft. level designated b)7 7ood regulations. Mr. Jim Terry presented the case for the County, advising that building at lower elevation would permit better access to the facility, particularly for,the handicapped, elderly and infirm. Also building at lower ele- vation will permit incorporation of the -facility into surrounding sand dunes,•with variety of plantings, including sea oats and other beach vegetation, making the facility more aesthetically pleasing. County. will not-be applying`for Federal Flood Insurance "'they are self- insured. In response to Mr. Biron's question regarding the elevation of the area surrounding the proposed structure, 'Mr. Terry advised would, be graded somewhere'in the area of 6' to S' - and the area from lower elevation to 3.0 ft. elevation of bathhouse facilities would be ramped.. To-ramp to any higher elevation,than.10 ft.,would necessitate longer ramps, at,greater expense to County. Facilities will contain electrical wiring for- lighting pui.poses only - no air clonditioning or heating facilities are proposed. Structure, of course, will be unoccupied. Add'ition'al structures and-facilities are proposed for Sand'Key Park some time in the future and these will be processed through the City's-regular site plan procedure.as each construction phase develops. f There were no further questions and Mr. Logan asked for a motion.

Motion seconded by Mr. Cornett and carried unanimously. Variance granted. EXHIBIT 5- PAGE 1 J r 1 ` Board of 'Adjustment & Appeal Building/Flood Control November 16, 1983 Page. 2 Mr.' Christiansen asked to be heard with 'reference to a problem on- countered at 781 Bay Esplanade. On April 13, 1983 the Board had granted the now owner of the property a 9 ft. variance so as to construct a one story residence attached to an-existing garage on'the property, at an ele- vation of 8 ft., compatible with the existing garage and surrounding proper- ties. The Building'Aepartment has placed a stop-work order on the con- struction as it has been found that the existing,garage was rased and con- struction of'the new residence was started from scratch. The Building Department maintains the flood variance was `granted bas'dd on`adding on to the existing structure; the property owner contends this was not.a con- dition of the-variance; and the Board is being asked to clarify. After a lengthy discussion and review of,the minutes, the Board ruled that the variance was granted based on' the new construction being attached to existing construction and the consensus was that,the owner should re- apply for an entirely new variance based on construction as it is now planned 'without the existing garage. Mr. Christ:ia'nsen was asked to convey this decisi.on-to the owner and'his attorney, who were waiting outside. Mr. Rogers Haydon, property owner, and his attorney, Mr. John Blakely, entered the meeting and asked to be heard. Mr. Haydon informed the board that it,,was his.intent when he applied for.the variance to incor- porate part of the existing structure,into the new construction. This also was his intent after the variance was granted buf it.was never `his belief that the variance was granted contingent to attaching to already C-xisting construction. He purchased the lot only after being granted the variance. and it was later that it'was determined to be economir.ally impracticable to use any'of the original building. At that time a.-demolition permit was produr,ed., Mr. Iiaydon expressed concern that to reapply for another variance at this time would in effect be admitting that he did not have a proper variance to begin with when it is his contention that he did have a legitimate variance. Mr.`Blakely addressed the board and contended if it was the board's intent that the variance be granted with a condition, it'should have been so stated in the motion. Further plans were submitted showing construction without .the use ` of the existing garage and a permit Vas issued.' Also a demolition permit was secured.. Mr. Blakely advised that mention of the garage in the initial application for variance was to establish compatibility with surrounding structures, and he could not advise Mr. Haydon to risk re- applying for a•vari.ance for fear that it would be-denied and he would have abandoned his rights to the variance'he feels he already has. The situation now is that he has purchased the lot, constructed a swimming pool, and poured the foundation for the new residence and, without the variance he`is faced with a tremendous loss. More discussion,followed between the board members,, the applicant,and his attorney. 'Mr. Logan repeated that it would be to the best interests of . 1:.._ , Hoard of, Adjustment & Appeal Building/Flood Control November 16, 1983 Page 3 a'11 concerned for the board to hear the application again, and it was f'inal- lly agreed that Mr. Haydon•would re-apply for the variance stipulating on his application that fie 'was not.waiving his rights under the 'variance pre- viously granted.. Mr. Haydon will proceed on that basis and upon receipt. of his new application,' arrangements will be made so that the.Board may hear his case as quickly 'as possible.' Mr. liaydon and Mr. Blakely left the meeting. Mr. Logan brought up question'of how board should grant variances to build below flood control level where electric light switches, outlets, con- outlets, air conditioners, etc. are involved. Florida Power will ,not raise their transformer or,service drops above a certain height. Mr.. Tripp stated plugs and outlets are not.a major concern as there are devices to protect these - the service entrance is the problem. Mr. Walker. felt ?A;•.•',that residential construction is not a problem under existing regulations -.' t.,,,_ ,pr.oblem is with commercial structures. Considerable discussion followed between board members. regarding vague federal rlood regu'lati6ns -consensus. is that board can grant variances of a certain elevation but mot'idn should, be made that applicant must meet all applicable building codes and flood regulations.
