OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD
The Commissioners, as requested by the Chairman, divulged ex parte site visits,
investigations, and communications, an
d affirmed that their decisions would be based on the
evidence an
d applicable law.
In accordance with Attorney Polackwich's declaration that this matter was quasi judicial
in nature, the Deputy Clerk administered the Testimonial Oath to all persons who wished to
speak at the hearing.
Planning Director Stan Boling, through a PowerPoint presentation (copy on file),
described and gave staff's analysis on the Pelican Island Audubon Society's ("PIAS") request for
a special exception use approval to build a community center for training and educational
purposes on a I -acre parcel that is zoned Residential Multi -Family Up to 6 Units Per Acre (RM.
6). He stated that PIAS's proposed facility will be located on the south side of Oslo Road,
adjacent to the University of Florida's Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory (also zoned
RM -6), and bordered by several conservation properties. He noted that there is a mitigation
plan for the hardwood trees that will be removed, and that over 80% of the parcel will be
preserved as open space after the project's completion. Director Boling relayed that both the
ASK
Planning and Zoning Commission and staff recommend that the Board approve the special

exception use sought by the PIAS, with conditions related to the final tree mitigation plan,
N
onstruction of a Type B buffer, and sidewalk construction or bonding out.
Commissioner Solari confirmed with staff that this property could be purchased by a
developer and used to construct six residential units, if it is not acquired by the PIAS.
The Chairman opened the Public Hearing.
Charles Searcy, 1035 22°d Avenue, requested that the Board not grant PIAS's request.
He was concerned about detrimental impacts to the environment, and suggested that the County
purchase the subject parcel and join it with the other conservation lands, or try to acquire the
Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory's boathouse and lease it to the PIAS. He was also
N
oncerned that PIAS might decide to sell the property to a developer.
parcel.
There being no additional speakers, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing.
Commissioner Flescher wanted to know if use restrictions could be put on the subject
County Attorney Alan Polackwich, Sr. revealed that unless the parcel was rezoned, the
zoning would remain intact.
Commissioner Davis opposed PIAS's initiative, because he did not think the proposed
facility was compatible with the surrounding conservation propert
ies.
Commissioner Solari saw no reason to disapprove the special exception use approval
supported the right of the property owners to sell, and viewed the PIA
S's project as having a
very light footprint.
July 10, 2012
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Solari,
SECONDED by Chairman Wheeler, to approve staff's
recommendation.
Chairman Wheeler expressed his support for the Motion. He endorsed the work of the
PIAS and its volunteers, and believed the facility would be an asset to the community.
Vice Chairman O'Bryan stated that because a lot of the tree gation is going to be
offsite, the existing ecosystem of the property will be impacted. He spoke to the uniqueness of
the habitat and indicated he would support the Motion if the project is minimized to alleviate
impacts to the specimen hardwoods.
Commissioner Flescher declared that the PIAS stands for conservation, and they would
be good stewards of the lan
d.
Commissioner Davis stated that he shared Vice'
Chairman O Bryan s concerns. He also
inquired about paving requirements.
Director Boling revealed that the project meets the County's paving requirements.
Commissioner Solari agreed with Commissioner Flescher that the PIAS will do the right
thing, and be great stewards of the propert
y.
Commissioner Davis preferred to see the PIAS conduct its activities at the University of
Florida's boathouse, and to have the County purchase the property and put it into conservation.
The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION, and by a 3-2
vote (Commissioners Davis and O'Bryan opposed), the
Motion carried. The Board of County Commissioners:

IO.B.1. REQUEST TO SPEAK FROMEUGENE J. O'NEILL. ESO. FOR .%EFF & SUSAN WILBER
REGARDINGAMENDING OFZONING ORDINANCE 917.04(2)
Eugene J. O'Neill, Esquire, 979 Beachland Blvd., Gould Cooksey Fennell, PA, reported
that his clients, Jeff &Susan Wilber, were cited for a code violation of Chapter 917.04(2) for
using their garage (an accessory structure) to store personal/recreational items, even though
there is no principal structure being utilized on the property. The principal structure associated
with the property was destroyed by Hurricane Jeanne. Attorney O'Neill requested that the
Board allow for the use of an accessory structure when the principal dwelling has been
destroyed in a natural disaster, by amending Chapter 917 of the Land Development Regulations,
Section 917.04(2), "No accessory structure shall be occupied or utilized unless theprincipal
structure to which it is accessory is occupied or utilized."
Director Keating explained that the code applies to structures such as garages, swimming
pools, and boat docks, which must be used in support of the principal use/dwelling. He
explained that since the Wilbers' principal residence no longer exists, staff made an
interpretation that their garage may be used to store only equipment, such as a lawn tractor,
related to (accessory to) maintenance of the property.
Commissioner Davis sought and received confirmation from Director Keating that the
code violation will be resolved if the Wilbers remove their personal/recreational items from the
garage. He also remarked that he would like the code changed to accommodate individuals in
catastrophic situations.
Chairman Wheeler believed that the intent of the ordinance was to prevent an accessory
structure, such as a swimming pool or boat dock, from being built prior to a residence. He
agreed with Commissioner Davis that there are situations in which exceptions need to be made.

Director Keating affirmed that Chapter 971, Section 917.04(2) could be amended to state
that when a natural disaster has caused the demolition of a principal structure, an accessory
structure can still be utilized.
MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Davis,
SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, to: (1) have
Code Enforcement retreat from the Wilber case; and (2)
direct staff to draft and return to the Board with an
amendment stating that when a natural disaster has
caused the demolition of a principal structure, an
accessory structure can still be utilized, to the Land
Development Regulations, Chapter 917, Accessory Uses
and Structures, Section 917.04(2) Use Limitations.
Vice Chairman O'Bryan noted that the Wilbers' garage is a valuable structure and well
maintained, but he felt a safeguard should be included in the proposed amendment to prevent an
unsightly or poorly maintained structure from being permanently kept on a vacant lot.
Attorney Polackwich advised that the ordinance amendment can be structured to allow
for discretion to be applied in specific instan
ces.
Director Keating acknowledged that staff would structure the ordinance amendment
according to the Board's wishes.

Attorney O'Neill asked if something can be done about the $100 per day fine that the
Code Enforcement Board imposed on the Wilbers until their case has been resolved.
Director Keating stated that the Code Enforcement Board will give the Wilbers an
extension until the Board acts on the proposed ordinance at a future County Commission
meeting.
I D.B.Z. REQUEST TD SPEAK FROM JDE WIGGINS REGARDING SIDEWALK ON 11 ry STREET.
S.W. AND REMOyAL OF STOP SIGN ON II TH STREETS,
Joe Wiggins, 895 11�' Street SW, complained that a stop sign which has been placed on
l lcn Street SW to slow down the traffic is ineffective, an
d has almost caused several accidents.
He wanted the stop sign removed.
Director of Public Works Christopher Mora stated that an "all -way" stop sign was
installed mid -block about 1 1/2 years ago in response to complaints about people speeding on l lcn
Street SW. He justified the location of the sign, and countered that staff was not aware of any
congestion or safety problems.
Mr. Wiggins responded that the stop sign was not deterring speeders.
13
Vice Chairman O'Bryan suggested installing some speed humps as a traffic calming
measure.
Chairman Wheeler questioned the wisdom of removing the stop sign, which he believed
effectively deters at least some speeders. He acknowledged that putting in speed humps may be
a solution, but wished to get input from neighborhood residents before taking that measure.
Director Mora interjected that there is a requirement to get approval from two-thirds of
the residents on the street prior to installing speed humps.
Further discussion ensued about the possibility of constructing a sidewalk on 11th Street
SW, with Mr. Wiggins relating an incident where a child had fallen from his bicycle into the
street.
Director Mora related that in order to construct the sidewalk, the County would need the
homeowners to donate 10 feet of
right-of--way.
Mr. Wiggins reiterated his concern that this situation poses a danger to the neighborhood
children, as well as other pedestrians.
